Then the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them.

Matthew 21:14

Those people made the best decision of their lives when they turned to the One who has the power to change any situation. Missing the opportunity to have an encounter with the Master is not a wise thing to do so when going to church be sure to pay attention to what the preacher is ministering. 

Even if you are not going through any serious problems now, turn to Jesus. Upon encountering the Lord tell Him all about what worries you, ask Him for a way out to your troubles and make sure you believe He has heard you. The secret is getting to the point with Christ and once you finish praying, believe that He has granted all your requests. Next, in His Name, rebuke what is causing you that uneasiness by demanding it to end and casting it out. 

We can’t find one single case in the Scriptures in which Christ had left someone leave empty-handed; all those who sought Him would go away with the desired answer. Now, we can only draw near Him when we act based on our understanding of His Word. Those who don’t heed its directions miss the opportunity of having an executive meeting with the Lord of the universe. Such meeting is meant to solve that which pesters you. 

The simple desire of seeking Jesus is already a sign that you’ll be blessed because the willingness to go to Him that emerges in your heart comes from Him – the Master would never mess with your faith. Whenever you feel the desire to pray, to read the Bible and to attend church service, don’t waste any time because he who seeks finds (Luke 11:9b).

We lack more things in life than we can figure out. When God sees we’re under the attack of the enemy, He opens our understanding for us to draw near Him so that we obtain the solution we need. The Lord’s ability to heal us from any disease; to deliver us from temptations and to lead us safely is never ending. That’s the reason you ought to never turn away from the Right Source.

Jesus heals all those who turn to Him. Oftentimes it seems He’s tardy in showing us the way out, but that happens because we need to go through treatment. If our faith is at ground zero we won’t get anything in return. That’s why it’s good to follow the Lord closely in prayer and to pay heed to His voice. When He sees that our faith has grown, He’ll answer by giving the solution to that very thing we need the most. The truth is that our Saviour never fails to answer those who turn to Him with faith.

In the past, all those who had an encounter with Jesus ended up being greatly blessed. Even the soldiers who’d been sent to arrest Him went back saying that no one had ever spoken like the Master did. No matter what disturbs you, endeavor to be with Christ and then you’ll see that the storm will pass. What Jesus did to those men and women He’ll do for you as well. He’s the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8).

In Christ, with love,
