Being Healed by the Lord

Last night we had combined service meeting.  Here are some of the notes I've taken...

The reality is in Jesus. 

It needs to be reproduced in many members by the Spirit of Reality. 

Then the seed would be reproduced in us. 

The full harvest is just the manifestation of the kingdom, and it should be lived out from us. 

The church is the place by which God has a realm where He can move.

He wants to move and live in us.  So we need to live Him grow from within us. 

When the Lord came to Peter after His resurrection, He promised Peter to establish the saints.  He first shepherded Peter.  We are that Peter.  We may be weak, may have denied Him at times.  But when we have a heart for the Lord, when we turned to the Lord, the Lord will commission us to shepherd His sheep, His flock.  The Lord will cause us to be able to establish the saints.

We need to daily turn to the Lord.  To daily let Him heal us, restore us.

We need to be constantly brought up to the Mount of Transfiguration for us to see Him and hear Him only.

In the long night, with our destination not far off, we are in the boat, tossed by strong winds and waves.  So we need to experience more of the reality.  We need to ask Jesus to come into the boat. 

When Jesus went to Galilee, there are lots of handicapped people.  But they were healed by Him.  Without the Lord there will be no healing.  Sickness is an abnormal condition.  We may have sicknesses at times, causing us not to be able to serve.  So we need to be on the alert and let the Lord serve us and heal us.

In Mark 16:1 it was the Lord who heals the people.  But when it came to Mark 16:16, it was the disciples who was commissioned by the Lord to heal. 

We need to let Him heal us.  Then be the serving ones to bring the Lord to people.  We should not be discouraged.  Just come before the Lord.

We have no more time to be sorrowful.  When we come to Him, we would be filled with joy, satisfaction, peace, freedom.  Just come to the Lord and enjoy Him.

Simply bring our enjoyments to the saints.  Serve the Lord to the brothers and sisters.

Satan wants to hinder our service.  He wants to cause us to lose our enjoyment for the Lord.  We should not heed of him.  Rather, we should go on, pursuing after the Lord, enjoying the Lord.  And we should have prayer of authority.  We need to have the faith.  Faith is just to be joined to the Lord more and more.

It was the Lord who washed the disciples' feet one by one.  Sometimes in our condition, we are ashamed to come to the Lord.  But we need not to.  We just need to ask the Lord to come and serve us then we'll be back in the fellowship.

There may be lots of trials.  But we just need to let the Lord deal with all the things that's happening to us.  We're should be determined to gain and experience the Lord more.  So come more to the Lord, bring our problems to the Lord.

After the brothers' speakings, we were asked to pray for the ones in sicknesses and trials.  Because recently in Manila there are certain number of serving saints or their family member had became sick and needs to be confined in the hospital, it hinders them from serving.  So we were asked to pray by groups to strengthen the ones that needs the Lord's healing and to further strengthen each one of us in going on in the Lord.
