Message
God is the Great Physician. In Exodus 15:26, He Said, "...I am the Lord that healeth thee." The Bible says that He sent His word and healed them(Psalm 107:20). He is the God of all flesh, and nothing is too hard for Him (Jeremiah 32:27). Some diseases are termed incurable, but for God, no disease is incurable. Even if a damaged body part is deemed irreparable, He can replace it. While earthly physicians refer cases to each other when they cannot handle them, the Great Physician never refers a case - He is a specialist in all fields of medicine.
Years ago, a wealthy chief, who became paralysed from the waist downwards, was taken to the best hospital in London. After trying their best and he didn't get better, the doctors gave up. To prove the hopelessness of his case, the head surgeon drove a long pin through the chief's thigh, and when the latter felt no pain, he told him, "Go home, stop wasting your money, you will never walk again." The chief was taken back home, and a young girl, who is a member of RCCG, witnessed to him and said, "If you can get to my G.O., you will walk again." The chief was brought to Redemption City, and because he had a big stature, six hefty men had to carry him into my living room. I told him my God can change the doctors' report and that if he surrendered his life to Jesus, things would change. He surrendered his life to Jesus, we prayed, and he walked back to his car! What renowned medical specialists termed impossible took God only a few seconds to do!
I have seen God turn hopeless cases into great testimonies. I have seen Him step into sorrowful rooms as a result of the death of loved ones and turn them into places of joy and laughter. I have seen Him do the impossible, and your case will not be different; just believe in Him because all things are possible to him that believes (Mark 9:23). He turned around the 12-year-old case of the woman with the issue of blood in a second (Luke 8:44). Lazarus' four-day-old dead body didn't take him hours to resurrect (John 11:43-44).The man at the pool of Bethesda with the 38-year-old infirmity received instant healing (John 5:1-9). If you have any sicknesses or diseases in your body, I pray that the Great Physician will step in and turn things around immediately, in Jesus' name.
