SALT HEALS, No. 9.
Isaiah 61:1: “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to peach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the broken hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound.” This prophetic Scripture of Jesus Christ is fulfilled in Luke 4:18.
Matthew 9:35: “Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.”
Men, the truth is that if people are being healed it shows the salt is good and working its healing power. But if the people are not being healed there has to be something wrong with the salt. Everywhere Jesus went the people were healed of EVERY sickness and EVERY disease.
Everywhere God’s people go people should also be healed. The salt in Jesus healed the people and the same salt should do the same through us. It may not be only physical healing, for there are many areas where people need healing. People’s spirits and souls also need healing. In a sense, whatever the problem is, there is an answer for it in Christ. And when that answer comes there is healing. Obviously the people saw Jesus as the healer of all problems.
The question is: do they see the same anointing flowing through us? Do we bring healing to the people around us? This is why we all need to claim in an active way the same anointing of the Holy Spirit. As fathers we must teach our children to pray that the healing power of Christ is for today.
