The 5 Gifts of Healing

Living Waters Methodist Church will be a Healthy / Healthier Church.

“If the Church is healthy, there is a GOOD CHANCE that the church will grow naturally – qualitatively as well as quantitatively.”

“If the church is unhealthy, it will MOST DEFINITELY decline.”

On my experience at Pentecost MC :

“We didn’t do much evangelism in PMC, but we concentrated on making the church healthy – Good relationships between leaders (including the pastors), between church members, and a godly emphasis on Preaching God’s Word clearly and on Disciple-making.

Over time, more and more members began to serve in the ministries and there were more giving and more people pledging.

People started to bring in their own friends and relatives, on their own accord.

When outsiders came into the church on their own, many stayed because they could sense the peace of God and the peace amongst the people in our midst.

But it took a lot of praying and ploughing (getting rid of obstacles) to get the church to a healthy stage.

There is need for humility, showing love, and practicing the Bible for good health to take root.

Good Health must also start with the pastoral team, the church staff team and leadership team.

An emphasis on programs is useless until there is good health in the church.”

Goal for the church for 2012 – that we will adopt certain healthy lifestyles :

1.A focus on building better relationships amongst us, the People

2.A focus on strengthening the Pulpit (so that God’s Word will cause spiritual growth in our hearts)

Mark 5:21-42

The 5 Gifts of Healing

Mark 5:21-42

“When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around Him while He was by the lake. Then one of the synagogue rulers, named Jairus, came there. Seeing Jesus, he fell at his feet and pleaded earnestly with him, "My little daughter is dying. Please come and put Your hands on her so that she will be healed and live.” So Jesus went with him.

A large crowd followed and pressed around Him. And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years.

“She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse.

When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind Him in the crowd and touched His cloak, because she thought, "If I just touch His clothes, I will be healed." Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering.

At once Jesus realized that power had gone out from him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, "Who touched my clothes?"

“"You see the people crowding against you,” His disciples answered, "and yet you can ask, 'Who touched Me?' "

But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at His feet and, trembling with fear, told Him the whole truth.

He said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace & be freed from your suffering."

While Jesus was still speaking, some men came from the house of Jairus, the synagogue ruler. "Your daughter is dead," they said. "Why bother the teacher any more?”

“Ignoring what they said, Jesus told the synagogue ruler, "Don't be afraid; just believe."

After He put them all out, He took the child's father and mother and the disciples who were with Him, and went in where the child was.

He took her by the hand and said to her, "Talitha koum!" (which means, "Little girl, I say to you, get up!" ). Immediately the girl stood up and walked around (she was twelve years old).
