THE LORD IS MY DELIVERER

Memorise:
But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God. .. Psalm 40:17

Read:
Mark 7:32-37

Message

Luke 13:11-13 tells us of a woman who was bent for eighteen years and couldn't walk uprightly. She must have visited many doctors and used different medications, all to no avail. However, when she encountered Jesus, she was set free immediately. There are some sicknesses that even the best doctors cannot treat. If you are experiencing any lingering sickness, you need just one touch from the Great Deliverer to make you whole.

When the devil afflicts a fellow with an infirmity, he adds a lot of sorrowful things to the person's life. For example, besides suffering from leprosy, lepers also suffer isolation, which might lead to depression, especially if they are abandoned by their relatives and friends. If they had thriving businesses, the businesses might automatically shut down because some people might not want to do business with them. In Luke 17:12-19, there were ten lepers who needed to be delivered from leprosy. When the Mighty Deliverer came on the scene, they were cleansed, and one of them, who returned to give thanks, was made whole. I believe this meant that he recovered everything he had lost in the past. This is what the Lord can do for you when He is your deliverer. He can restore everything the enemy might have stolen from you as if he never came near you at all. I pray that God will show Himself mighty on your behalf, deliver you from every affliction and oppression you might be experiencing, and make you whole, in Jesus' name.

We have a deliverer; He is called the Lord of Hosts (Psalm 24:10) and the Lord Mighty in Battle (Psalm 24:8). He can deliver anyone, and nobody can pluck His children from His hands.

    The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.    ...Psalm 18:2-3

Beloved, if you haven't surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, you are His enemy, and it is a fearful thing to fall into His hands (Hebrews 10:31) because no one can deliver anyone from Him (Isaiah 43:13). Surrender your life to Him today so He can become your Great Deliverer. If you are already a child of God and are still in any form of bondage, I pray that the Great Deliverer will deliver you completely, in Jesus' name.

King James Version

Mark 7:32-37

And they bring unto him one that was deaf, and had an impediment in his speech; and they beseech him to put his hand upon him. [33] And he took him aside from the multitude, and put his fingers into his ears, and he spit, and touched his tongue; [34] And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened. [35] And straightway his ears were opened, and the string of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plain. [36] And he charged them that they should tell no man: but the more he charged them, so much the more a great deal they published it; [37] And were beyond measure astonished, saying, He hath done all things well: he maketh both the deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak.
RCCG Hymn

In Christ Alone

  1. In Christ alone my hope is found
    He is my light, my strength, my song
    This Cornerstone, this solid ground
    Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
    What heights of love, what depths of peace
    When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
    My Comforter, my All in All
    Here in the love of Christ I stand
  2. In Christ alone, who took on flesh
    Fullness of God in helpless Babe
    This gift of love and righteousness
    Scomed by the ones He came to save
    'Til on that cross as Jesus died
    The wrath of God was satisfied
    For every sin on Him was laid
    Here in the death of Christ I live, I live
  3. There in the ground His body lay
    Light of the world by darkness slain
    Then bursting forth in glorious Day
    Up from the grave He rose again
    And as He stands in victory
    Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
    For I am His and He is mine
    Bought with the precious blood of Christ
  4. No guilt in life, no fear in death
    This is the power of Christ in me
    From a life's first cry to final breath
    Jesus commands my destiny
    No power of hell, no scheme of man
    Could ever pluck me from His hand
    'Til He retums or calls me home
    Here in the power of Christ I stand
