MIRACLE HEALINGS ARE FROM GOD;
“How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was”(Acts 10:38).
Amiracle is a supernatural act of God in human affairs that defies conventional or natural sequence. Often, we hear some folks say miracle healings are not real or that Satan also performs healings, but I’ve studied the Bible and can’t find anywhere Satan healed people, cast out demons, or raised the dead. Our opening scripture declares that Jesus went about doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil. Satan made them sick, but Jesus brought them healing.
I often feel sorry for folks who disparage the works of the Spirit and attribute healing miracles to the devil. They set themselves against the Lord without realizing it. The devil doesn’t heal; as a matter of fact, he can’t! The question we should ask those who are saying this is: “If Satan now heals the sick, or if his power is being used to heal the sick, then who made them sick?”
Some wrongly assert that God made them sick so He can humble them. But the same people rush to the doctor to get rid of what God supposedly gave to them. Isn’t that a bundle of contradiction? God is a healer and miracles are real and they come from God! When Jesus was accused of performing miracles by the power of Beelzebub, He warned them to be careful about what they say concerning the works of the Holy Spirit, because anybody who sins against the Father and the Son shall be forgiven but whosoever sins against the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven (Matthew 12:31).
This is why you have to be careful today about what you say concerning healing ministers and miracles performed in the Name of Jesus. Don’t ascribe the works of the Holy Spirit to the devil. Hebrews 13:8 says: “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” His power is unlimited and miracles are the hallmark that He’s still alive today.
