In Part 8 of the He Promises series, Pastor Rachel shares about prayer and the keys to the kingdom of heaven. God gives believers the access to open doors and freedom through the power of prayer.

In Part 6 of the He Promises series, Pastor Rachel shares how true freedom occurs only through a relationship with Jesus Christ. He brings liberty to the captives, and removes the debt of sin from our lives so that we may walk no longer in bondage, but in fullness of freedom.

In Part 4 of the He Promises sermon series, Emily shares about the promise of God's presence. God promises to never leave nor forsake His people, and to be with us at all times. We can take heart knowing that as we put our faith and trust in Jesus that He promises to be with us for eternity.

In this week's message, Pastor Rachel shares a new series called, "He Promises." God's promises are true in our lives, and as we wait we're called to faithfully steward what God calls us to. He will bring the fruitfulness in our faithfulness to Him.

In honor of “GOOD Friday” I share some lyrics from a favorite song of mine “Grace Alone” by Kings Kaleidoscope. Then, i hit on some verses in Luke 23. it's pretty dope to see the heart of Jesus… while hanging on the cross, He PROMISES the man hanging next to Him Paradise right before they both died. Just for the man's FAITH. Be blessed, and always remember….the CROSS was for you, for all of us ✝️

JESUS IS THE SOURCE of TRUE HAPPINESS! All that He is. All that He has done for us. All that we are IN HIM! All that He PROVIDES for us NOW! And ALL that He PROMISES us for our FUTURE.... THOSE THINGS ARE TRUE and UNCHANGING!!! And IF our Happiness is ROOTED in Christ... Then it can be TRUE and UNCHANGING as well!

“He was fully convinced that God is able to do whatever He Promises. “ Romans 4:21

You can have peace in troubled times because: 1) Our God is Greater 2) He cares about you 3) He Promises to take care of you.

https://youtu.be/O5Ehm6KUeYM Today is Easter- The day we set aside to commemorate the day that Jesus rose from the deadIf you don't know the Easter story- let me give you a quick synopsisJesus Christ, born of the Virgin Mary, had about a 3 year ministry in which he performed Signs and Miracles to draw people to hear the good news- That was- God was reconciling himself to man through his son, Jesus Christ- Jesus spent most of his ministry preaching to people that the Kingdom of God was here and that they should turn to GodThe Jewish religious leaders at the time brought legal charges against him because he claimed to be God and broke Jewish law- He had committed no crime because he was God in the flesh. They crucified him even tho he was innocent of all charges.Jesus crucifixion was the blood penalty paid to God on our behalf for all the sins of mankind.How do we know this? Upon his death, they put Jesus in a tomb and 3 days later he came back from the dead and proved he was God and that we could live forever with him.Jesus declared it, the prophets declared it, the word of God declares it.Today for Easter- I want to focus on one scripture that to me encapsulates the promise of todayMany a Easter has been spent saying WHAT happened and WHY it happened, but we do we do NOW? What do we do the day after Easter?We talk about the tomb, the resurrection, the players. Most if not all of you know the story of the death burial and resurrection of our savior- its central to our faith- but not central to our experience. Jesus commanded us to remember him during communion- but his promises went far past the cross, tomb, and the resurrection.That resurrection power of Jesus was there on that first easter and its still here for us TODAYHow do we live in Jesus the day after Easter? Now that the tomb is empty- now what?(We as Americans are very goal, graduate, get the job, spouse etc, but then what?)John 14:19 “A little while longer and the world will see Me no more, but you will see Me. Because I live, you will live also.- BUT HOW DO WE LIVE? we'll get to it in a minute THAT'S A PROMISE- BECAUSE HE LIVES WE WILL LIVE ALSO- A GREAT LIVING LIFE IN HIM Jesus wants you to LIVE after the resurrection- not just exist but to LIVE There were a lot of statements Jesus made prior to this in John 14He promises mansions in heaven v2 In My Father's house are many mansions;He promises that he is preparing a place for us I go to prepare a place for you.He promised that he would come back  3 I will come again and receive you to Myself;He Promises that we will go with him to heaven that where I am, there you may be also.He declares he is the only way to heaven- v6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.He declares that he is God in v7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”v9  He who has seen Me has seen the Father;He declares the disciples will do greater works than him v12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do,He declares that HE will answer prayer-  13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you [c]ask anything in My name, I will do it.He promises the Holy Spirit-  16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—He promises that he will come to us- 18 I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.And then the greatest promise- “Because I live, you will live also”What a promise! That we will LIVE because of HIM!He loves us and we love HIM by keeping his commandments- 21 He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him.”He will manifest himself to us- He will become real to us.

Pro. 3:4-5   INTRODUCTION: In our home we purpose to eat at least one meal together everyday. When the conversation draws to a lull, it’s not unusual for one of our kids to start reading stuff on the products on the table.    So it might be the ingredients in cereal. It might be the instructions on pancakes, but the absolute best is when someone starts reading the warnings. Here are a few:   Nabisco Easy Cheese - For best results, remove cap.  On a Bottle of 7UP - Contents under pressure. Cap my blow off causing serious injury. Point away from face and people, especially during opening.  On a Blockbuster DVD rental - Be kind rewind. (There’s a reason they couldn’t stay in business) Christmas Lights - For indoor or outdoor use only.  Little ones baby lotions - keep away from children. On a Batman Halloween Costume - Does not enable user to fly... of course not, I mean it’s batman.    Well there are some verses that also so obvious, so simple that we read over them without really allowing them to impact us.    Proverbs 3:5-6 is such a passage. It’s the most well known passage in Proverbs. Many of you have this verse displayed in your home somewhere.    TEXT: Proverbs 3:5–6 (ESV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. 6 In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.   You know how the Bible compares some truth to milk, some to meat... well Proverbs is sort of like the “Hard Candy” of the word. You can’t swallow it whole, you have to let it melt in your mouth.    The Promise - The promise is that God will make your path straight. He will make His will for you crystal clear. You will know who to date, who to marry, what to major in, what classes to take.    When John the Baptist came as the forerunner to Jesus, his commission was to make straight the way of the Lord. That doesn’t mean that the way was easy for Jesus. It does mean that the ground work was laid for Jesus to come on the scene.   John went before Jesus the way a tiller goes before the seed.    Now Proverbs 3:5-6 says God will do for you what John did for Jesus.    As you prepare to go to the next phase of your journey.   YOU NEED GOD TO MAKE YOUR PATHS STRAIGHT   The shortest distance between two points is what? Straight line. God will help you to reach the goals He has for you in the shortest amount of time, with the fewest number of detours.   This verse tells us God is willing to do that - however this is a conditional promise.    There are some promises in God’s Word that are Unconditional - God says, “I’m going to do this regardless of what you think, believe or do”. Pro. 3:5-6 is a conditional promise. God will make your path straight...IF you do 3 things... Now if I were you, I would really want to know those 3 things.    What are they?  1.Trust in the Lord with all your heart   ILLUSTRATION: John G. Patton was a British missionary to the New He-bri-des Islands of the South Pacific. One of the challenges he faced sharing the Gospel in their language was finding a way to communicate the concept of faith, because there was no word for “faith” in their native tongue. So he began to pray and ask God to give him a word that communicated the concept of faith. Then one day he was in his hut working when a native walked in and jumped into a hammock and said in his native tongue, “it feels so good to stretch out and rest my whole body on this hammock”. Patton said, “there’s my word”. Faith, or Trust is to stretch out your whole soul on the word of another.    Just as you lie down on your bed at night, and trust it, you don’t examine it, you don’t check the manufactures... you are never more at home and relaxed than when you are on your bed... in the same way... let your heart relax and stretch out on the Word and Character of God.     Trust mean that you give your “yes” to God based on HIS character before you fully know what the questions are.    Then there’s that word, “ALL” trust the Lord with ALL your heart. The Hebrew word for all has two senses. It means All in the sense of the WHOLE, but also ALL in the sense of the individual parts. I’ve met people who can easy, quickly, flippantly say, “I trust God with my whole life”… but then when I examine them the quickly fade.    Money - My two oldest kids recently got jobs and are getting regular pay checks. Before that first check was deposited we sat down and talked about the concept of tithing. I explained how mom and dad believe that if we give the first 10% to the Lord, the 90% remaining is more blessed. I told them that I’d rather have the 90% blessed than the 100% unblessed. Then I told them you are going to have to make a budget and you decided how much you give… do you trust Him with that All?    Dating - What about your dating relationships? God says, “do not be unequally yoked together with an unbeliever”. Statistically, you will find that your standards for dating will fall in direct proportion to your choice of a marriage partner. If you wouldn’t marry an unbeliever why would you date one? Do you trust the Lord with that ALL? Authority - The Bible says, “Children obey your parents in the Lord for this is right”. Did you trust the Lord with that part of ALL? The government made Vaping illegal for minors and the Bible says submit yourself to the governing authorities for the Lord’s sake, Do you trust the Lord with that part of ALL? You with be tempted to drink, abuse drugs… you just have to ask yourself here and now - do you trust God’s word on those issues?    ILLUSTRATION: I will never forget as a new believer in college… the most difficult area to trust God in was my dating life. I’ll never when I made the decision not to date anyone I wouldn’t see as a potential marriage partner, it seemed as though EVERYONE had a date but me. I can show you the place on O’neal bridge in Florence, AL that God spoke to my heart a verse that I had never remembered hearing in my life - God said, “whosoever believes in me will never be ashamed”. Later I found that verse was in the OT and the NT. I’m sure I had read it and the Holy Spirit was bringing it to my mind and applying it to that situation. God was saying, “trust me and you won’t regret it!” May I say that after 18 years of marriage as I look at my wife and consider the women some of those compromisers ended up with… I am not ashamed.    Trust the Lord with all your heart…then he says it negatively… 2. and do not lean on your own understanding The word there for "lean" is the Hebrew "shan-ann", which literally means "to support yourself by leaning on something or someone else."     So we are putting our confidence in God’s word rather than our unenlightened wisdom.    It doesn't mean you are to put your mind in neutral.   It doesn't mean that you don't use sanctified common sense.   It does mean that you aren’t relying simply on your intellect, knowledge, understanding as the sole guiding compass for life.    Many times trusting Him will not make sense based on your own unenlightened understanding.    Can you imagine how Moses felt when God said, “Tell Pharaoh that I said let my people goI And use that stick in your hand to do it!”? Did that make any sense at all? When God told Abraham he was going to be a dad and he was going to use his 90 year old wife to do it. She Laughed out Loud.    Isaiah 55:8–9 (NASB95) 8 “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord. 9 “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts.   There are a few times in your life when God will call you to do something that makes no sense from your perspective.    Proverbs 28:26 (NASB95) 26 He who trusts in his own heart is a fool, ...   The defining difference between people who regularly see God at work in their lives and those who do not - is highly effect christians are DEEPLY CERTAIN that the Bible is God’s inerrant, infallible, inspired Word. They know it, they believe it, they regularly trust it. And they LEAN on it.    Are you LEANING on the word today?    Proverbs 14:12 (NASB95) 12 There is a way which seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.   QUESTION: Are you leaning on HIM or are you leaning on YOU? Because if you are leaning on YOU no wonder you are so anxious, stressed out…    Trust in the Lord with all your heart... Lean not on your own understanding... 3. In all your ways acknowledge him,   The word Acknowledge there is from the Hebrew word that literally means, “to know” both mentally and experientially. So in other words in ALL the ALLs of life - you bring God’s persons into the scenario. You invite God into the situation.    Before you choose your classes, before you select a major… make sure you invited God in.  Before you say, “yes” to a date, make sure you invite God in.  Before you commit to an organization or visit a church… make sure you invite God in.   ILLUSTRATION: I remember having a friend named Shane in middle school that I really liked hanging out with. He and I were two of the founding members of the Moulton Middle School Chapter of the G.I. Joe fan club. We got along great, we had a lot of fun. But in 7th Grade I joined the basketball team. I wasn’t super athletic, but my friend Shane was the definition of Non-Athletic. He was short, very thin, red headed, and nerdy. I remember never really wanting for my basketball friends to meet my G.I. Joe fan club friend.    Now let’s be honest there are times we treat Jesus like our nerdy friend that we don’t want anyone else to know about. So we hang out with him on Sunday’s, we sing about him, we study him, we talk about him, we pray to him.    But when we walk into the locker room on Monday we say, “Jesus, why don’t you wait in the hall”. Lord, some of these guys here at work don’t even believe you exist, so I’m not trying to tell you what to do, but if you don’t mind, just sit quietly.  Lord, I’m about to go hang out with some cool, popular people in the Fraternity or Sorority, you probably wouldn’t like them anyway. Lord, let’s hook Sunday.    NO! FRIEND- you can’t put off the King of Glory like a nerdy friend, you are ashamed of.    Mark 8:38 (NASB95) 38 “For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”   NOW - I take this very literally and seriously. I want to acknowledge him in EVERY area of my life.    When I eat a meal I pray, not because I think God will supernaturally reduce my caloric intake.... I’m acknowledging Him. That’s why I don’t pray a long time... I’m not getting caught up on my quite time... I’m acknowledging Him.  So if I sit down at Cracker Barrel.. I and my family will bow our head and pray.  Or if I’m at a fancy Italian place in NYC with mover and shakers around us, we bow our head and pray.  If I have an presence online on Facebook, twitter, Instagram - I make it very clear I’m a  follower of Christ, do I think people are going to get saved because of that, who knows? But I am going to acknowledge Him.     LISTEN: Don’t serve, Don’t give, Don’t worship, Don’t Study - a God you have to leave out in the hall!!!!   The key to developing your walk with God is creating avenues of communication where God can speak into situations.    Then, and only then... He Promises you - HE WILL make your paths straight. It doesn’t say, “He might!” Thank. God for that.   ILLUSTRATION: It’s just as John the Baptist went before Jesus, and make his way clear, credible and plowed the heart of the hearers... God will send His Spirit before you - and your life will be revolutionized.    Don’t be consumed with KNOWING God’s will… Be consumed with KNOWING GOD and HE WILL make your path clear…   CONCLUSION:  The word, "make your path straight" is a word that literally means "to cut a highway" or "to clear a path." Would it improve your life today if Almighty God, just cut a path for you? If he leveled some Mountains? Filled in some valleys?    Pastor James Merritt tells us that, In WWII many fighter pilots were required to land their planes on the deck of aircraft carriers. The aircraft carrier is a tiny landing strip that is not only sailing away from him, but might also be bobbing 6 - 15 feet up and down, as well as rolling side to side.  Landing on the deck was just part of it, cables were strung across the carrier decks, the landing plane had to drop its tail-hook and snag a cable to arrest its forward progress.  As one World War II pilot put it, "You crash-land on the deck and hope you catch a wire."  In fact, they have put heart monitors on pilots and found that their heart rate is faster landing on a carrier than when they are in combat.   The key to landing a plane successfully on an aircraft carrier was the pilot's confidence in the landing officer known as the LSO - The LANDING SIGNAL OFFICER.  The LSO was an experienced pilot who directed pilots coming in for a landing by signaling with his paddles.  These signaling paddles were like cut-off tennis rackets with strips of colored fabric stretched across the face.  The strips allowed the LSO to wave the paddles one way or the other and not worry about catching the strong winds that blew across the deck of the aircraft carrier.   Every pilot knew you had to depend totally on the LSO.  If you are too high or too slow,  he signals you.  It is the landing signal officer who gives you the "cut-signal" to land.  You have to place yourself totally in his hands.   Charlie Brown, a navy pilot in War World II, put it this way, "The LSO gives you a cut sign or a wave off.  The cut signs means you can land.  The wave-off means you give it full-throttle and circle around to try again.  Once he gives you the cut sign, you don't touch that throttle again or you automatically get court-martialed."    God doesn’t promise to eliminate all your problems, or destroy every threat. He didn’t do that for Jesus and he will not for you. However, God does say that if you will Trust Him with all your heart, lean not on your own understand, acknowledge him in every area of your life... then and only then... will he give you the proper signal at the proper time... he will make sure that you land every plane safely. 

The key to peace is to KNOW Jesus Christ, Who is your peace. (Ephesians 2:14) When you are joined together with Him in a personal relationship, then you will experience Peace – God's Gift of Wholeness.He Himself is your peace, your bond of unity and soul harmony which comes from Christ rule, He acting as umpire CONTINUALLY in your hearts, THE LORD giving you his Divine persuasion in deciding and settling with finality all questions that arise in your minds, in that peaceful state of being in His Presence and having His Mind, Holding His Thoughts Feelings and Purposes of Heart as a member of Christ's BODY you were And BEING THANKFUL, Appreciative, Giving Praise to God ALWAYS. (Colossians ‭3:15‬, 1 Corinthians 2:16)Christ Is Your Burden Bearer. He frees you from worry, so Cast your burden on the Lord releasing the weight of it to Him. Give all your worries and cares to God. Roll Each Care of your Load on Him. Trust Him, He will help you. (I Pet 5:7, Psalm ‭37:5‬)Don't Worry About Anything; instead, pray about everything. In every Situation and circumstance and in everything. When you CAST your CARES on the LORD Jesus Christ, He will SUSTAIN you. The Lord directs the steps of you His child. He delights in every detail of your life. Even if you stumble, you will NEVER fall, for the Lord holds you by the Hand. (Psalms‬ ‭37:23-24)‬The LORD Himself PROMISES to Take CARE of you His child. So GIVE ALL your WORRIES and Cares to Him, Who Cares Affectionately and Watches Over you. (Philippians 4:6, Psalms 55:22, 1 Peter 5:7)Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Never Stop Praying, and Be thankful in all circumstances, Thank God in everything no matter what the circumstances may be, be thankful and give thanks,for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians ‭5:17-18)‬TALK WITH GOD ABOUT EVERYTHING! He PROMISES to Help you See His Perspective, and He PROMISES to Show you the Way to take Going Forward. SEEK HIM and Acknowledge Him in ALL your Ways, and He PROMISES to Direct and Make Plain and Straight your Paths in Life.-(1 Thessalonians 5:17, Proverbs 3:6)Trust In The Lord Who is for Ever Faithful with All your Heart, and Mind, and be Confident in His Care for you.

(Proverbs 3:5-6, Hebrews 13:5)The LORD Jesus left you with a gift—Peace Of Mind And Heart. And the peace He give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid. (John‬ ‭14:27‬)Peace I leave with you; My Own peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled. (John‬ ‭14:27‬)DO NOT LET YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED, Trust in God. He is for you. TRUST in the LORD Jesus Christ. He died for you to Make you ACCEPTABLE in God Sight. You are the Elect of God, Holy and Blameless in His Sight. God Himself Gives you Right Standing with Himself. (John 14:1, Romans 8:31-34)Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. (Matt 6:8) And God's peace shall be yours, that tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus. (Philippians‬ ‭4:6-7‬)Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. (‭‭Philippians‬ ‭4:6-8)‬‬Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace, of untroubled, undisturbed well-being will be with you. (Philippians‬ ‭4:9)God gives you His Fruit of Peace. This Peace Comes from Living in Vital Union with Christ Jesus. I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don't be troubled or afraid. (‭‭John‬ ‭14:27)‬‬

PODCAST MISSION STATEMENT: My goal is to define the parameters in which you can be healed scripturally, and live in health ... and then you can help others do the same! -- Prince Handley    If you have friends who need healing or a miracle, email them this teaching.  DESCRIPTION: How to know it is God’s will to heal you. Not just God CAN heal you, but God WILL heal you! He wants to heal you and He PROMISES in His Word to heal you. His will is for you to fulfill the number of your days in HEALTH. HOW TO BE SURE HEALING IS FOR YOU MUSIC / INTRO I want to continue our discussion today about “Is Healing For Everyone?” Healing is still the will of G-d as it was in the past. It is G-d’s will to heal ALL who have need of healing – and to fulfill the number of their days! I want you to recall that all those Messiah Yeshua called back from the dead were young people who had NOT lived out their fullness of years. And, in that very fact we may see His protest against premature death. If the allotted span (of life) has not been spent, we have a right to claim G-d’s benefit of promised healing and health. And, even though a person’s span of 70 to 80 years has been passed, it’s equally G-d’s will we should live the extra (extension of years) in good health. If you want to know what’s in a person’s will (that is, their Last Will and Testament) you have to read the will. People leave a Last Will and Testament and they write it before they die. They don’t come back to life and change it AFTER they have died.  Jesus came back to life to minister what He put in His will. If we want to know G-d’s will on any subject, let us read His will. For example, let’s say someone says, “My realtive who was very wealthy passed away; and, I would like to know if they left me anything in their will.” I will tell them, “Why don’t you read their will and find out.” The word “testament,” legally speaking, means a person’s will. The Holy Bible contains G-d’s Last Will and Testament - The Old Covenant (Tanakh); and the New Covenant (B'rit Chadashah). In other words, the New Covenant that Messiah established for His people is what he bequeathed us: all the blessings of redemption, everything purchased by His atonement on the cross stake. His prophesied death and resurrection impacted the glorious ministration of that will. Since it is Messiah’s Last Will and Testament, anything later is a forgery. Notice I said, “The Last Will and Testament.” It’s the New Covenant: He did NOT change it after He was raised from the dead. He came to minister the life, healing, and the promises obtained in that New Covenant. A man never writes a new will after he is dead. If healing is G-d’s will for us, then to say that the age of miracles is past is virtually saying what is opposite of the truth: that a will is no good after the death of the testator. Yeshua is not only the testator who died, He was resurrected and He is also the Mediator of that will, that covenant. He is our lawyer, so to speak. Yeshua is our lawyer. He will not beat us out of our rights in the will left to us, as some earthly attorneys do. Messiah Yeshua is our representative at the right hand of our Heavenly Father. And, for the answer to the question under consideration, let us look away from the modern tradition, and go to the Word of God, which is the revelation of His will. In the 15th Chapter of Exodus (in the Torah), just after the passage of G-d’s people through the Red Sea, when the Children of Israel were delivered from cruel Pharaoh and Egypt, an event that typified our redemption. And, it was written, as the Holy Bible says, for our admonition. G-d gave His first promise to HEAL right after that. This promise was for ALL PEOPLE. G-d named the conditions, the conditions were met, and we read, “He brought them forth also with silver and gold, there was not one feeble person among all their tribes,” and it is here that G-d gave the covenant of healing revealed by and sealed with His first covenant and His redemptive name: Jehovah Rapha, translated “I am the LORD that heals you,” OR literally, “I am Jehovah, your doctor,” OR “I am YHWH, your physician.” This is G-d’s Word, settled in Heaven: a never changing fact concerning G-d’s character; and don’t let anyone beat you out of His Will. Don’t let anyone - a minister, a rabbi, another person that claims they know Yeshua – don’t let them tell you that Yeshua does NOT do MIRACLES today! My friend, the Messiah of Israel, Yeshua ha Meshiach, is the SAME: yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8) And, during His earthly ministry, Yeshua never refused healing to anyone! And, my friend, He wants to heal you right now. The POWER of the Ruach ha Chodesh (the Holy Spirit) is upon you right now. Receive that MIRACLE you need in the name of Yeshua!
