HOSEA 8:4-7.11-13
They love sacrifices; They offered flesh and eaten; But the Lord did not favor them. Now he will remember their mistakes and will punish their sins; They must return to Egypt!
PSALM 115:3-10
Our God in heaven; He does what he Pleaswills! O Israel, believe in the Lord! — He was their help and their shield.
MATTHEW 9:32-38
Jesus cast out demons who possessed a mute and healed a disease when preaching the gospel.
Musings
Yesterday we have discussed that all diseases and all things are impossible to overcome by the power of God and of course our condition of living in his Righteousness, the righteousness of the Word of God.
The Gospel today tells Jesus to cast out demons and heal sickness and preach the gospel.
It is clear that we who believe in Jesus should do as Jesus did and we will be empowered by the power of the Lord.
Mark 16:17-18
These signs will accompany believers: they will cast out demons for My Name, they will speak new tongues for them, they will hold the serpent, and notwithstanding they drink the poison of death, they shall not get wretched; They shall lay his hands upon the sick, and the man shall be healed.
Fighting Satan/Devil is difficult when relying on his own power without the power of God to be with us because Satan or the devil is our enemy from the beginning to destroy us.
Ephesians 6:10-12
Finally, you shall be strong in the Lord, in the strength of his power. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may endure against the wiles of Satan; For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against Lords, against the rulers of this Dark world, against evil spirits in the air.
God prepares us against Satan/Devil with spiritual armour (Ephesians 6:14-17) and Confers his power (Mark 16:17-18).
Ephesians 6:14-17
So stand stand, Berikatpinggangkan truth and spread justice, your feet are foiled with willingness to preach the Gospel of peace; In all circumstances use a shield of faith, because with that shield you will be able to extinguish all the fiery arrows of the wicked, and receive the Helmet of salvation and the Sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.
We must be sure the power of God is with us against the power of the wicked and by the power of God also we can heal all kinds of sickness.
