The 8 Minute Devotion

Overcoming Offense - The Healer (Mark 7:32-35)

How do we respond when Jesus moves in a way that is surprising or even offensive to us?  Do we elevate our ways above His ways?  Join Pastor Cameron as we see the story of Jesus healing the deaf and mute man - His ways were shocking but led to the man's ears being opened and his tongue being loosed!  

Partnership - The Healer (Mark 2:3-12)

Jesus often heals through partnership with man - He can do things sovereignly but He often chooses to work through His people in order to bring healing!  Join Pastor Cameron on today's podcast as we look at the story of the paralyzed man and his friends; when the lame man didn't have the faith or strength to go on his friends carried him to Jesus!  Jesus both forgave the man's sins and healed him of his disease, meeting all of His needs.  

His Ways - The Healer (Isaiah 55:8-9)

This week on the podcast, Pastor Cameron looks at the various ways Jesus used to heal in the Gospels.  He used a variety of methods to heal, many of which offended the mind of man; His ways often call us out of our comfort zones in order to experience His miraculous power!  Whatever means He chooses to use, He wants our focus to be on Him and not a man-made formula to bring healing.  

Resurrection Word - The Healer (Luke 7:11-15)

There is unlimited power in the Word of God - not even death can stand in its way!  The widow woman of Nain was mourning her dead son, followed by a huge crowd - but the resurrection joy and power in Jesus was greater!  Join Pastor Cameron and be encouraged that the Healer wants to release His powerful Word in your life today!  

The Ten Lepers - The Healer (Luke 17:12-19)

Jesus healed the ten lepers simply through His Word - they responded in obedience to His Word and were healed.  It is so important that we learn to respond to Him in faith - Pastor Cameron discusses this and encourages us to always bring obedience and thanksgiving to His healing word!  

Unexpected Faith - The Healer (Matthew 8:10-13)

Join Pastor Cameron as we see how Jesus marveled that the Roman centurion (a Gentile) had more faith than His chosen people.  Those of us who are in the church and receiving the word of God continually need to be careful that we never lose our childlike faith - may we always believe the Lord for the seemingly impossible!  

Audacious Faith - The Healer (Matthew 8:5-9)

Jesus often marveled at the audacious faith of those who came to Him for miracles.  His healing word works in conjunction with the faith that is active in the hearts of His followers.  Join Pastor Cameron as we look at the incredible faith of the centurion, and how that led Jesus to release His healing word to the centurion's servant!

His Word - The Healer (Romans 10:17)

There is tremendous healing power in the Word of God!  Jesus often healed simply through the power of His words, and He still does the same today.  Join Pastor Cameron as we start our week-long look at "His Word."  

With His Stripes We Are Healed - The Healer (Isaiah 53:5)

Join Pastor Cameron as we finish our introduction on "The Healer" by looking at the most famous Messianic Scripture in the Old Testament - Isaiah 53:5.  Why do we often find it so easy to believe Jesus for forgiveness of sins and so hard to believe Him for healing, when He purchased both as part of the atonement?  Any implication that healing is not for today doesn't come from the Scripture, but through tradition - Scripture makes it clear that healing should be practiced and is a gift the Church should function in.  Just as we spread the Gospel of forgiveness and eternal life, we should spread healing as well.  Be encouraged to walk in the full atonement and believe for healing from every disease!  

The Promised Messiah - The Healer (Isaiah 35:5-6)

On today's podcast Pastor Cameron looks at the promise of the Messiah - He would open blind eyes and deaf ears, and the lame man would leap!  These promises were made to the Jewish people, and are still applicable to us - miracles can and do take place.  Be encouraged to seek God for your own healing today!
