   08/13 - GospeL Verses

10 - When the disciple’s returned from being sent out, they told Jesus all that they had done. Then they went on with him to a town called Bethsaida. 11 And when the people heard, they came to him. And he welcomed them, and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and he healed those who had need of healing.

     12 When the day began to be late, the twelve came saying, “Should we send the crowd away to go to the surrounding villages and countryside to find lodging and food? For we are here in a desolate place.” 13 But he answered, “You give them something to eat.” But they said, “We have only five loaves and two fish, unless we’re to go and buy food for all these people!” 14 For there were about five thousand. He told them, “Have the people sit down in groups of about fifty.” 15 And so they did, 16 and taking the five loaves and the two fish, Jesus looked up into heaven and said a blessing. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples to pass out to the people.

     17 And they all ate and were satisfied. When they picked up what was left over, there were twelve baskets of broken pieces. {That’s us! Without him we are all baskets of broken pieces.. Basket cases! In one way or another, and in many ways, lol. But he provides healing, wholeness and the spiritual food we need, the bread/message/Truth and the new wine of God’s Spirit/Presence.}

   08/12 - GospeL Verses

1 - Jesus called together those twelve which he chose and gave them power and authority over demons, and power and authority to cure diseases. 2 And sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal. 3 He told them, “Take nothing for your journey, no staff or bag, no bread or money, and no second tunics. 4 And whatever house you are welcomed to, stay there, until you leave. 5 And wherever they won’t receive you, when you leave shake the dust from your feet as a testimony against them.” {Don’t let it bother you.}

     6 And so they went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing.

     7 Now Herod the tetrarch heard about all that was going on, and he was puzzled, because it was said by some that John the Baptizer had been raised from the dead. 8 Others said Elijah had appeared. And still others said one of the prophets of old had risen. (From their grave, Jn.5:28,29). 9 So Herod said, “I beheaded John! Who is this!? About whom I hear such things?” And he sought to see him for himself.

                ~ 1John 2:23-29 ~

23 - Anyone who denies the Son does not have the Father. But whoever confesses the Son has the Father also. 24 Let what you heard from the beginning stay with you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you - will abide in the Son and in the Father. 25 And this is the promise that he made to us, enduring life.

26 I write these things to you because there are those who are trying to mislead you. 27 But if the anointing of him that you received abides in you, then you have no need that anyone should teach you. But as his anointing teaches you about everything, and is true. And so it is no lie - just as it has taught you - abide in him. 28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink back from him at his coming. 29 If you know that he is righteous, you may be sure that everyone who practices righteousness has been born of him.

GospeL Verses ~ Mark 1:40-45

     Leprosy was examined by the priest, if there was open sores, it was unclean. But later if it turned white, then it was no longer “unclean”.

     40 - A leper came to Jesus and kneeling said to him, “If you will, you can make me clean.” 41 Moved with compassion, Jesus stretched out his hand and touching him he said, “I will, be clean.” 42 And immediately the leprosy left and the man was cured. 43 And Jesus sent him on his way, telling him not to spread the word about his healing 44 and to go and show himself to the priest and offer for the cleansing what Moses commanded, as a proof to them.” 45 But the man went out and talked freely about it, and the news spread so much Jesus could no longer openly enter a town, but was out in the countryside. And people were coming to him from every quarter.

                ~ Hebrews 9:25-28 ~

25 - And the Lord did not have to offer himself every year like the priests going into the holy of holies, the old system, once a year with the offering. (Upon Day of Atonement ..you know that represents GWT ‘day’ right? It follows one thousand years after “Trumpets” - represented by the ten days between them, surely? As it sure does seem coincidental. And I won’t even mention “Tabernacles” [rev.21:3]. ..Especially after we realize how perfectly his first advent fulfilled the Spring holy days! But which is not easy to see for a number of calendar reasons, etc.

    26 For then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the creation of the world! But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the consummation of the ages to put away sin [hamartia - missing the mark] (which unavoidably leads to life as we presently know it, and ultimately results in death - God’s ransom has to be strong enough, impactful enough to reach and convince all) by the sacrifice of himself. 27 And just as it is appointed for a person to die once, and after that, judgment. 28 So also Christ, was offered once - for the many bearing sins for (this last was word for word) and he comes a second time [beginning his long second advent] not to atone for sin but comes to those awaiting him and salvation [sótéria - deliverance, salvation, safety]..

12 Jesus came to a town where there was a man who had leprosy. When the man saw Jesus, he fell down to the ground in front of Jesus and begged, "Lord, you have the power to make me well! If only you wanted to!" 13 Jesus reached out and touched him. “I am willing,” he said. “Be healed!” And instantly the leprosy disappeared. 14 Then Jesus  said, “Don’t tell anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

     15 But the news about Jesus spread all the more, and great crowds came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses. 16 Jesus often would go to a solitary place where he could be alone and pray.

          (In Order Written)

        ~ Hebrews 10:1-7 ~

1 - The old system of the law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming—not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship. 2 Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins. 3 But instead, those sacrifices actually reminded them of their sins year after year.

     4 It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins [hamartia - missing the mark(s)]. 5 That is why when Christ came into the world, he said, “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me. 6 In burnt offerings and sin offerings you have taken no pleasure. 7 Then I said, 'Behold, I have come-- in the scroll of the book it is written of Me-- to do Your will, O God.'"

Healing by Restful Keeping Sabbath

Keeping Sabbath (for healing) can be weaved throughout the life and days.

Jesus is the vine. We are the branches. Fruit grows. If we rest in the vine. Rest in the finished work of God in Jesus. "It is done," Jesus said.

"Draw near unto God! and He will draw near unto you!" (Hebrews) "That we may receive the help (the grace) we need.." (Quit trying to make yourself good enough for God to love! Admit it can't be done! He - is the only source of Goodness. He has given an "oath" (Hebrews).

He is in the quietness.. I can't speak for any others.. but God gave me a formula for deep inner healing..

God is a God of order. (And even what seems the most complex of things, is basically simplicity.)

I was sitting on a bench under some plum trees and grape vines. Lo and behold I had found some plums that no worms had gotten! So I ate a couple and thanked the Lord. It was a very nice day. As I was musing it seemed as though a calendar opened up before me, in my mind's eye.. over a blue sky background. That there are four seasons with three times a day - 24/7. Each season with its particular spiritual lesson. I think of it as the 4 + 3 prescription. I see the big "Rexall" sign before it..

..three times a day to worship Him.. "you make the places where morning and evening meet to leap for joy" (badly? paraphrased from Psalms) - Not a strict legalistic schedule, just one to keep in mind.

Psalm 65:8 "You make the places where morning and evening have birth, to shout for joy.." ..and then there's Gethsemane's moonlit hour.. Three times a day throughout four seasons every year..

It's a box and pattern I can put my mind in.. and put up a shield of faith and deny every negative idea.. Turn from every negative thought.. The shield deflects the arrows and they fall to the ground bent and broken.

I believe we do well to allow ourselves much time(s) to rest quietly in Him. Listening to His quiet and soft voice.. of reason.

The basic idea is to weave into our life and days times of Quiet prayer and praise and the reading of God's Word. This is the bread and the wine, the prescription Jesus gave on the eve of His crucifixion.

HEALING

A lot of people believe in God - it's not that hard, well perhaps a little for some, in these days of modern invention and busyness. But to see the Great Spirit and Presence of Life (often perceived in moments of quietness) is to receive some portion of healing just in the perceiving.
- Add to this, that he sent a son (a unique first Son) to gather all things back to God and perfection. What was done was done, and now this Son says he has the keys to life, death and the grave.
- "Grave" is the proper translation of what some have translated 'hell', a preChristian idea and far cry from the "Sheol" of B.C. and the Old Testament.
- Jesus said "it is finished". After the consummation of mankind's history (or did we think man's empire, "house of merchandise" and self seeking could endure and smother the planet forever?) We are told we "will be like Jesus" ..who healed everything he touched. Just read the Gospel (testimony) of Mark! The chapter begins with Christ's introduction by wild man, John the Baptist. And by the end of that first chapter, Jesus has healed so many that great crowds are following him everywhere he goes, so much so that he can no longer enter the towns but remains outside the towns. (Which he seems to prefer anyway!)
- Jesus is "the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature." Hebrews 1:3.
- "The cow and the bear shall graze.. together; and the lion shall" (once again) eat straw like the ox." Isaiah 11:7
- "..they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more; Everyone will find rest beneath their own fig trees or grape vines, and they will live in peace. This is a solemn promise of God All-Powerful." Micah 4:3,4
- "All the ends of the earth shall remember and turn to the Lord; and all the families of the nations shall worship before him.^"  Psalm 22:27
His Spirit Heals each of us, the whole planet.. and life. 
There is creative POWER in our thoughts and WORDS, and also of course, in our prayers for one another... 

Good News!

The gospel (good news) is in very large part, psychological, bottom line being, we are all miserable sinners and Jesus was executed in our place.
 (Good News Translation, GNT)
Isaiah 11:7

 ⁷Cows and bears will eat together,
      and their calves and cubs will lie down in peace.
   Lions will eat straw as cattle do.

Revelation 22:1,2  
¹The angel also showed me the river of the water of life, 
sparkling like crystal, and coming from the throne of God 
and of the Lamb and flowing down the middle of the city's street.  
 ²On each side of the river was the tree of life, 
which bears fruit twelve times a year, once each month; 
and its leaves are for the healing of the nations.

Fuldilled Bible Prophecy

They say Jesus was crucified (executed on a Roman cross) when He was 33. He fulfilled 333 prophecies written of Messiah in the Old Testament, the book of thirty-nine books written by more than twenty authors, spanning from approximately 1500 B.C. to about 400 B.C.
- Jesus was known to say "come, follow me.." When we read the New Testament we can follow the pathways in which His feet walked..

- Matthew 4:23, Amplified Bible (AMP) ^{- "}And He went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the good news (Gospel) of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every weakness and infirmity among the people."

- Hebrews 13:8, Contemporary English Version (CEV) - "Jesus Christ never changes! He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.."
