Psalm 103: 1-3 “Bless the Lord, oh my soul

and all that is within me. Bless His Holy Name.”

“Who forgives all your iniquity, Who heals all

your diseases”.

 

Acts 10:38 “How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth

with the Holy Spirit and Power, Who went about doing

good and healing all whom were oppressed by the devil

for God was with Him”.

 

How easily our hearts turn ... from God in times of ease

and turn away from His Will ... directly to His Gifts.

Sickness is permitted by God ... He has the power to stop it

but Satan seems to “direct” it and when stopped throws a fit.

 

To be satisfied with God’s will and not murmur against it

is shown with great clarity ... in how one reacts to sickness.

If one seeks one’s own will ... there’ll be dissatisfaction

but God “wills” for our life ... contentment in forgiveness.

 

How to break “self-will” down ... is it stone by stone?

“Self-love” destroys what is good and spiritual works in stride.

“Self-desire” is called your “old” heart and we know what that will do

as “self-made” becomes a timeless yoke ... that rests on pride’s insight.
