If you refuse to stand corrected by the Word of God, you won’t be able to be healed by the Word of God. You have to have faith to receive healing. If you don’t have faith to follow, you won’t have faith to receive. (Ephesians 2:8) 

​

Some born again Christians, when hands are laid on them, get instantly healed and some do not. Some are ignorant—they lack revelation of what Jesus did in His Body for them. (I Corinthians 11:29-31)

​

 Those who are ignorant—lack revelation can receive a healing based on the faith of others in the room or the faith of the minister, even though they don’t have their own personal revelation. 

​

God will give you credit so-to-speak. You will then need to start renewing your mind with the Word of God so that you can get the necessary revelation that faith requires in order to keep your healing.

​

Then there are some Christians who are ignorant and arrogant; they refuse to receive instruction or correction in their daily life. That’s a guard they have put around their heart that will not allow them to receive, no matter how much miracle power is flowing, no matter the measure of faith of the minister. 

​

The arrogant ignorant are after relief with no commitment or gratitude to God after the fact. They are only after the miracle. They don’t really want anything more to do with God, even though they are seemingly a Christian. These are those who don’t usually receive an instant miracle. 

​

They know God, but they will not follow the plan of God. They think their plan for their life is the plan of God. They are held captive by their own mind.

​

God puts a demand on the faith of Christians for healing, and the working of miracles. Whereas someone who doesn’t know anything about faith can get a healing or a miracle, again, based on the faith of others in the room or the faith of the minister. 

​

It seems to me Jesus healed more people on His faith or by the gift of faith than theirs. As a matter of fact, when the disciples, who were sitting under His teaching, who had faith imparted into them by Jesus Himself. . . Jesus corrected them for not using the little faith that they had. He put a demand on their faith because they were His students. (Matthew 8:26)

​

So, with all of that said, let me ask you this; do you want relief or do you want help? If you want help that means there’s going to be a demand of faith from your life after the fact.  Relief is temporary, while help is everlasting.

​

Before the power of God can work for you, you have to be willing to submit to the one the power comes from and that’s God and His Word from where faith comes.

Have a wonderful week and remember that Jesus is coming soon!!!
