Follow The Healer: “The Five Ways Jesus Heals”
According to the New Testament, Jesus is the one through whom all things were made (John 1:3, Col. 1:16; Hebrews 1:2), all things hold together (Col. 1:17, Heb. 1:3), and all things are being made new (2 Cor. 5:17, Rev. 21:5). As Lord of both creation and new creation, he can heal in various ways. Jesus heals directly and supernaturally, through doctors and medicine, through the human body's healing power, through giving grace in suffering, and through victorious dying.

    Follow The Healer: “Whose Ministry Is It?”
    Matthew 9:35-10:1
     
    One of the main parts of Jesus' ministry was his work of healing. Amazingly, Jesus continues that ministry through his followers. So we are called to participate in Jesus' ongoing ministry of healing by joining him in that ministry rather than simply asking him to help us do our own thing.

    Isaiah 61:1-4 
     
    In Isaiah 61, the prophesized Suffering Servant speaks to his people Israel, and says that he has been anointed by God to heal, and set people free from oppression, and to proclaim the good news of God's rule; in other words, he says that he will bring everything that was supposed to come in the OT year of Jubilee. Jesus quotes these verses as he began his ministry, and he actually fulfilled it in his ministry, death, and resurrection.

    Isaiah 40:1-5
     
    Isaiah 40 is a word of comfort to a people in exile, that their sin has been paid for and their time of suffering for their transgression is over, and their anointed King is coming soon. This has been fulfilled beyond all imagining in Jesus, who received the wages that our sin deserves, and gave to us the wages that his obedience and righteousness deserved…life.

    Isaiah 64:1-4
     
    Isaiah's longing that God would rend the heavens and come down to redeem His people and His creation is fulfilled in Jesus, who in taking on our humanity is like an author writing himself into his story so that his characters and creations can know what he is like.

    Christ The King – “Knowing the Power of the King”
    Ephesians 1:15-23
     
     
    Paul's prayer for the Ephesians (and us) is that we would see something many do not: that Jesus is the King who rules over everything, and so we never need live in fear and anxiety.

    Series: (All)
    John 6:66-69
     
    Following Jesus is often difficult, especially when Jesus simply calls us to do things or give up things that we do not want to give up. In these times, we may even question our faith. But in John 6, we find a powerful and clarifying question that helps us to see what is at stake in our walk with Jesus.
