In this inspiring and thought-provoking message, we delve into Matthew 8:1-17, where Jesus demonstrates his authority over sickness and disease. As we journey through the next few chapters, we unravel the facets of Jesus' authority in conquering nature, sin, supernatural forces, demonic influence, and even death. The reality of suffering is one of the greatest challenges in the world, causing some to doubt the power and goodness of God. However, for those who believe in the Bible's promises, we confess and affirm that our God is a healer. But when illness and affliction come close to us, it can be difficult to ask for healing and trust in God's process.
Why do we struggle with the authority of Jesus? This message explores the reasons and offers a valuable perspective that empowers us to say, "If You [Jesus] will, You can.... but if You don’t, I trust."
The beauty of our faith is that we not only believe God can heal us now, but that he will heal us forever. This is made possible through our Savior Jesus, who has all authority and power. He laid down his life for us, died in our place, but rose again, giving us hope for resurrection and eternal healing. So, if you or someone you know is struggling with sickness or disease, this message is a must-watch. It will give you strength, courage, and a firm belief in the unfailing authority of Jesus Christ.
