"There is a portion of the Word of God that is glorious
but it is not always understood and is abused by many. It is one you will find inscribed on wall plaques and placed on samplers
and bookmarks. It is used, perhaps, more than any other scripture: "And we know all things work together for good to them
that love God, to them who are the called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28). That promise is glorious but that promise
is not for everyone! It was given for only those who are living in God's perfect will, for those who have surrendered everything
to Him, who are "the called according to His purpose." (Kathryn Kuhlman - Teach Us To Pray)
************************************** Some Healing
Scriptures to Study:
(All of the following will be from the New King James Version of the Bible) Malachi

you shall go out And grow fat like stall-fed calves." Matthew 4:23 - "Now Jesus went about
all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness
and all kinds of disease among the people." Matthew 9:35 - "And Jesus went about all the
cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness
and every disease among the people." Luke 6:19 - "And the whole multitude sought to touch
Him, or power went out from Him and healed them all." Luke 9:6 - "So they departed and went
through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere." Luke 9:11 - "But when the
multitude knew it, they followed Him; and He received them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed
those who had need of healing." Acts 3:16 - "And His name, through faith in His name, has

12:28 - "And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after
that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues." I Cor. 12:30

"The Bible is filled with glorious accounts of miracles.
Throughout the ministry of Jesus, Scripture reveals many occasions when He supernaturally intervened in the lives
of men and women. From turning water into wine at Canaan to raising Jairus' daughter from the dead, He brought help and
hope to desperate lives...There was no disease or condition that was too difficult for Jesus to heal. He had power over all
diseases... The same Jesus who walked this earth 'healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people'
still heals today. Diseases and infirmities still vanish as sick bodies are transformed by the healing touch of Jesus. Health
and life are restored when the Master comes on the scene." (Taken from The Miracle of Healing by Benny Hinn) <><

"Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those
rejoice who seek and require the Lord (as their indispensable necessity)". (Psalm 105:3) (The Amplified Bible)

"A reporter was interviewing a 104-year old woman, 'And what do you think is the best thing
about being 104?' the reporter asked. 'Very little peer pressure,' she responded with a smile."

"No one should ever be afraid of God's will. Unfortunately,
there are some people today who feel that the will of God is always unpleasant. They are afraid to submit to God's
purpose, because they are sure that happiness and God's will cannot be compatible. They spend most of their life
trying to avoid God's plan, thinking the will of God will somehow make them unhappy. But according to the Bible, nothing
could be further from the truth. The Bible tells us that when we delight ourselves in the Lord - when we allow Him
to have control of our lives - He will give us the desires of our hearts (Psalm 37:4)." (George Sweeting - How To Discover
The Will of God)

"Dear friend, you can trust
the Man who died for you. You can trust Him to thwart each plan that should be stopped and to complete each one that
results in His greatest glory and your highest good. You can trust Him to lead you down the path that is the very best
in this world for you." (J.H.M. - Streams In The Desert)
**************************************************************
"God shows His great love for us in this
way: Christ died for us while we were still sinners." (Romans 5:28) "Can anything make me stop loving you?" God asks. "Watch
me speak your language, sleep on your earth, and feel your hurts. Behold the maker of sight and sound as He sneezes, coughs,
and blows His nose. You wonder if I understand how you feel? Look into the dancing eyes of the kid in Nazareth; that's God
walking to school. Ponder the toddler at Mary's table; that's God spilling His milk. "You wonder how long my love will
last? Find your answer on a splintered cross, on a craggy hill, That's me you see up there, your maker, your God, nail-stabbed
and bleeding. Covered in spit and sin-soaked. "That's your sin I'm feeling. That's your death I'm dying. That's your resurrection
I'm living. That's how much I love you." (Max Lucado - Grace For The Moment)
<>< <>< <><
<>< <>< <>< "Genesis 1:27 states that God created human beings in His image - what better
reason to feel positive about ourselves! Criticizing ourselves or feeling unworthy insults God and His creation. 'So
God created people in His own image; God patterned them after Himself; male and female He created them.' David
praised God in Psalm 139:13-17 for knowing him, loving him, and creating him with such care. God deserves your praise
for the way He created you. You hold the image of God - don't downplay the worth you have in God's eyes. 'You
made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother's womb. Thank you for making me so
wonderfully complex! Your workmanship is marvelous - and how well I know it. You watched me as I was being formed
in utter seclusion, as I was woven together in the dark of the womb. You saw me before I was born. Every day of
my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. How precious are your
thoughts about me, O God! They are innumerable!' (New Living Translation) Our true worth comes from God, not other
people's opinions of us. God values and cares for us because we are His precious children. In Luke 12: 6-7, Jesus
encourages us to rest secure in God's love for us. 'What is the price of five sparrows? A couple of pennies? Yet
God does not forget a single one of them. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you
are more valuable to Him than a whole flock of sparrows.' (New Living Translation) Because of our upbringing, circumstances
or failures in life, many of us feel unwanted and worthless. Cutting remarks from others such as 'You're useless!'
ring in our ears. But God's Word shouts the opposite. You have value. You count! You are God's special creation,
made in His image. And that is just the beginning of the story. God's word is filled with covenant promises, redemption,
grace, mercy, forgive- ness, salvation, and guidance. All this is provided for you because God loves you and treasures
you. Regardless of painful circumstances or hateful words, know that you have value. Don't allow feelings of worthlessness
to defeat you. Meditate on God's Word. Think about the fact that God created you with special care and loves you as
His own. Let these truths sink into your soul, then bask in His love and live as His special child." (Taken From
Living Water For Those Who Thirst)

*************************** "GOD
IS ABLE TO MAKE ALL GRACE ABOUND TOWARD YOU; THAT YE, ALWAYS HAVING ALL SUFFICIENCY IN ALL THINGS, MAY ABOUND
TO EVERY GOOD WORK." (II Corinthians 9:8) (King James Version) ***************************
"Matthew 10:29-31 assures us of our value
in God's sight. We can be confident of His care for us because He loves us. [Jesus said] 'Not even a sparrow,
worth only half a penny, can fall to the ground without your Father knowing it. And the very hairs on your head
are all numbered. So don't be afraid; you are more valuable to Him than a whole flock of sparrows.' One of the
smallest birds is the sparrow - and surely one of the most common and ordinary. Sparrows come in many varieties and
can be found all over the world. Jesus used this tiny and seemingly insignificant creature to illustrate God's care
for the earth and to teach the value of God's most cherished creation - human beings. How much are sparrows worth? In the
world, not very much. But God knows when each one falls. How much are you worth... According to the world? According
to God? Whenever you feel hopeless, helpless, and worthless, consider that you hold much more value than any sparrow.
God knows you, watches you, and deeply cares for you." (Taken from Living Water For Those Who Thirst) **********************************************
"I choose to remember where I came from -
my former life of sin - so that I ever have a thankful heart that Christ Jesus saved me ...and so I continue to
offer God's light of hope and salvation to the world still lost in darkness." (Taken from Mark My Word by Reinhard
Bonnke) ))))))))))))))))))))))((((((((((((((((((((((
My prayer for you is that you will walk with God - let Him lead you & guide you each day of your life, every step of the
way!
