Then His fame went throughout all Syria; and they brought to Him all sick people who were afflicted with various diseases and torments, and those who were demon-possessed, epileptics, and paralytics; and He healed them. Matthew 4:24

Jesus is our Example, but we are bad disciples, for we have not learned from Him as we should, thus, we err. We must observed what He said, taught and did, so we don’t give any excuses on Judgment. The Lord´s Name must be made known, not ours. We must follow the Savior´s behavior when He was amongst us, going to all places, teachings, preaching and using God´s power. 

Upon realizing the Master was different from all other preachers – because He proclaimed God´s Word so clearly – people began to go everywhere speaking of His feats. Thus, Jesus´ fame spread through all of Israel, reaching Syria. The Church will fulfill its role when it goes throughout the world preaching the Kingdom´s Gospel and healing those oppressed by the devil. 

Demons only respect the Name of the Lord, which paralyzes their works in the midst of mankind. Hell doesn´t want anybody to interfere in their “work”. However, when we use the Name of Jesus, we cause the wicked forces to submit to us. The act of delivering people from darkness is so important, because those who are bound simply cannot free themselves. 

When the Master ministered, showing the truth about the spiritual world, speaking of the wicked kingdom and the Kingdom of Heaven, using the power from on High over sick and troubled people, soon the good outcome was seen. The blind saw, the deaf heard and the paralytic walked. Thus, those in suffering were freed from the clutches of the tempter. The sick taken to Christ were all healed. Halleluiah! 

What the Savior taught is the absolute Truth. He said: “The thief (the devil) does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly (John 10:10). Jesus demonstrated what He preached, and that made all the difference. The same will happen today when people see the power of His Name working signs and wonders. Even the unbelievers will change their opinion. The Most High is fantastic! 

The sick and tormented need to find one who believes the Most High and is not ashamed of saying that He is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8). Thus, the sick will be healed, the oppressed delivered and those in despair will find peace in Christ, our Lord. The heavenly Father´s hand wants to do the same for those who believe in His Son. 

The Church has one mission: preach the Good News and show the Truth by accomplishing the same signs Christ worked. If there was something better for us to do, God would have shown us. Be careful with the doctrine that denies the Most High´s lordship over His work. 

In Christ, with love,
