Jesus in contrast with the ancient philosophers and reformers of the past, first gave him self in consecration to God, body soul and spirit, thereby establishing the pattern of consecration for  all Christians forever. His baptism was the dedication and commitment of himself “unto all righteousness ”  to do the will of God. He undertook to reveal the righteousness of God. Having committed Himself, His body, His soul, His spirit to God forever, in His growth to a hundredfold consecration, the Holy Spirit came from heaven as a dove and abode on Him as it ever will upon every man who will meet God with the same utterance of real consecration to God in spirit, soul and body. This reveals the demand of God upon the Christian person and conscience that’s the answer of God from heaven to this fullness of consecration to receive the baptism of the Spirit in the Christian life. He overcame Satan affords to temp Him in the departments of his life, first the body, second the soul, third the spirit, he overcame through reliance on God and His word and came forth in the power of the spirit. He announced the platforms of his life and ministry containing the following six commands from God.

Luk 4:18  The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, To comford them that are bruised.

Luk 4:19  To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

Gods never ending jubilee year was at hand in Jesus Christ. He went preaching the Kingdom of God healing all sicknesses and disease among the people and established the ideal life of the Christian ministry for the church of God forever. He empowered twelve men sent them to preach the kingdom, and to heal the sick, by their experience and advancing in faith and knowledge of the power of God. He sent seventy others but reversed the order of instruction, go into the cities heal the sick that are therein and say to them the Kingdom of God have come nigh unto you, they returned rejoicing that even the devils were subject to them Through His name.

Then came  the redemption on the cross, His entrance into death, His resurerection from the grave, His interview with His disciples, and in His commision He established His church to be born through the Spirit and through their preaching to all the world in the same way of ministry of salvation and healing that He Himself practiced. That ministry contained the message of Jesus to all the world and the anointing with power just as He received at His baptizm. Wait in Jerusalem until you be baptized with the Holy Spirit and power. He declared to them these signs will follow them that believe every Christian was thus commissioned by Jesus to heal the sick and preach repentness from sin. His commission this to His followers.

In My name shall they.

Mar 16:17  And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

Mar 16:18  They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

The Holy Spirit of God wich flowed through Jesus Christ the anointing that was upon Him, wich flowed through His hands and into the sick was an inpartation of God. The woman who touched his garment was consious in an instant of the healing in her body through that inpartation she new she was healed of that plague while Jesus Himself was concious of an outflow said; somebody touched Me for i perceive that virtue is gone out of me.

The law of divine healing is the power of God through the baptism of the Holy Spirit which is transmitted from the disciple to the one needing the blessing. It flowed through the hands of Jesus to the sick and to the woman who touched his garment the power of God saturated his whole body and into His garment and into her healing the plague.

This is the same proses for the Christian administering divine healing. The disciples healed the sick by the same method. Paul realizing this law allowed the people to bring aprons and handkerchiefs that they may touch his body, and were carried to the sick so that they may be healed through the power of God that inhabited the aprons and handkerchiefs even the demons went out of them.

Herein is revealed the secret that has been lost, the secret is the conscious tangible living incoming, abiding, outflowing Spirit of God through the disciple of Christ who has entered into blood washed relationship and baptism in the Holy Spirit. That is the secret the modern church has lost, a form of godliness but denied the power thereof.

When Jesus laid His hands on people the Holy Spirit was imparted into them in healing virtue the same with the disciples the Holy Spirit was imparted into the needy one, the same Spirit was imparted in to the preachers for the work in the ministry. Paul tells Timothy not to forget the power imparted into him through the laying on off hands, the impartation of the Holy Spirit for the work of the ministry.

In the early church the laying on of hands for the impartation of the divine living Spirit of God to the individual took place, through the impartation of power in him he was anointed a real preacher , a elder with healing power and faith anointed by God, now living in that Consciousness. God gave the blood of Jesus to the Christian church, and the power of healing in the Holy Spirit as long as they exercised the faith of Jesus in their spirit there the power of God will still manifest it self where any condition exist healing in that faith. The church can not leave the dying without hope and leave them there to die without bringing  to them the true healing power in the blood and Spirit of Jesus. If they are sick they must be healed.

We need again to look at the commandment of Jesus to go out and practice the law of healing to heal all diseases. If your church does not practice this truth of God concerning healing listen my brother get out and walk away. Jesus Christ gave His blood to get it for us, get away from religion and by the grace of God enter into the real life of living power delivered to the saints.

Let us once again arise to the ministry of real salvation that gives eternal life, health to the mind, to the spirit to the body to the need of the sick the sinful the broken hearted the dying the sin cursed and diseased smitten and comfort them that are bruised. Let us return in the glory of God and the power of Christ and the original faith as demonstrated in the New Testament. Lets embrace the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit demonstrating that as long as the Holy Spirit is in the church the gifts of the Holy Spirit are present and exercisable through faith.

1Co 12:8  For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom; and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit:

1Co 12:9  to another faith, in the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, in the one Spirit;

1Co 12:10  and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discernings of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; and to another the interpretation of tongues:

1Co 12:11  but all these worketh the one and the same Spirit, dividing to each one severally even as he will.

The righteousness of Christ the presence of the living Son of God to save and heal His divine power will manifest one glorious triumphant all embracing power of God through His Son and its everlasting superiority to save mankind both spirit body and soul. When the authority of Jesus to forgive sins was challenged He met the challenge with healing the sick He said whether is it easier to say thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, rise up and walk, but that you may know I say arise and walk.

Lets be power full, lets be bold lets be strong and fulfill our destiny fulfill our calling as the saints of Christ Jesus in the strength in the power that was given us. Lets rise up once again and take our position in God as true followers of our Lord Jesus Christ in the ministry of the real Christian.

Amen.

Soos altyd liefde in Christus.
