[Evangelist Gwendolyn&MatthewCole]

HEALED WITHOUT THE SCARS

Scripture Text: Luke 5:12-13

Ref. Acts Chap 3: Lame man from his mother's womb at the gate of the temple Beautiful, was healed after seeking alms of Peter & John. Vs. 6 -Peter said, "silver and gold have I none, but such a have give I thee in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.

• He stood up and was immediately strengthened.
• He leaped up and walked into the temple with Peter and John
• The people saw him and knew who he was: They were amazed

St. John 11 chap.: Jesus raises Lazarus from dead.
• In tomb for 4 days
• Jesus calls for Lazarus from the grave
• Wrapped in funeral clothes,
• Lazarus cam out of the tomb wrapped and bound hand and foot.
• He was freed of his funeral attire

John chap. 4: Man with an infirmity of 38 year laid by the pool. Jesus heals him and, he is made whole.

Introduction:

We all have been injured physically at one time or another in out lifetime. Some injuries lefts scars, some did not. Well you all know or should know that a wound will heal on its own most of the time. Some may need a band aide some may need stitches. Some wounds can heal in as little as a week some may take months. It all depends on the severity of it. We also know that before healing is done. Most wounds will form a scab. This is the body's way of keeping out bacteria. But, if you pull the scab off or continually pick at the wound it takes longer for it to heal.
You in turn may end up with a scar, due to the constant re-irritation of the wound.

Consider With Me in the 1st Place-

Heal -means to restore to health of soundness. To restore to spiritual soundness. To become whole or sound.

• Jesus healed many.
• Casted out demons
• Restored Mary through his forgiveness.
• Leapers cleansed.
• Woman at the well
• Peter, after his denial of him
• Saul and his transformation

Jesus himself is our balm in Gilead. He is our healer and deliverer

Consider With Me In the 2nd Place:

Delivered-means to release or rescue, to set free.
• Who the Son makes free is free indeed
• Holy Ghost is sent to us as a comforter
• His name is Savior, the one who saves
• Shadrac, Meshack and Abendego
• Daniel in the lions den
• Paul and Silas from prison (shook the very foundation of the building

Jesus is the deliverer of all that sincerely seek him. He will bring you out of the most fiery trials of your life; unscathed (no sign of injury). He will/can do what your mother, father, sister, brother and, the closes friends cannot do in your worse situation.

Consider With Me in the 3rd Place:

Scar -A mark left on the skin following a surface injury or wound. A lingering sign of damage or injury or wound (either mental or physical)
• Childhood accidents
• Bicycle
• Skate boarding
• Falls
• Accidents from doing foolish childish things.
• Car accidents
• War wounds
• Abuse
• Neglect
• Failed marriages/relationships
• Disappointments

All of the above that I just mentioned leaves a scar of some sort on the people that are/have been affected by any of those mishaps. You can probably show a scar some whereon you person and tell the whole story of how that particular scar came to be or, if your scars are not physical ones you can more than likely convey to those would listen all of t sorted details of you failed marriage, horrible childhood, neglect and abuse caused by someone wt was supposed to care for and nurture you through the delicate years of your life.

I could probably name a million more examples, but the truth of the matter is, we all have a story. It is not "it" (our story) that should direct OUI lives as Christians. We all should be seeking the
master healer to cleanse and heal our torn and tattered lives.

In my conclusion:

I want you to know that you can go through and come out a winner. You can go through and come out set free.

Someone may be saying how is this possible? What is she talking about? She doesn't know what "I'~ gone through. It is not possible. If she only knew the pain I feel on the inside she wouldn't talk such foolishness.

Well, I can tell you about your pain...it is a ever present, pulling, tugging at you heart and mind type of pain. An every present emptiness that never subsides. A truly real and present truth in your life.

Whatever has caused you present state of being, consumes your every waking moment. You can't eat, sleep or, focus. You life's movements are dictated by this pain/circumstance. You find fault with yourself and blame yourself for you current state. You want to fix it but the harsh reality is that, it is not you who can repair this type of injury.

The only one who can fix a spiritual injury is God. There is a surgery that only he can perform. Spiritual Healing. Women and Men of God no amount of therapy or medication can totally heal you. You must first realize and truly want to release those people or things that have held you captive. Once God sees the “real" sincerity of you desires to be free, then and only then will he be able to complete his work in you.

The word of God tells us in Matt. 11:28-30 (turn to it) When you sincerely petition God for his complete help in your situation (not partial help) Totally surrender your issues to him to handle. You will begin to see the transformation in your life.

The thing(s} that once had you bound, angry, depressed and, suicidal will begin to fall off.

• Abuse
• Rape/molestation
• Hatred
• Failed relationships/marriages
• Anger
• Resentment


God can heal you and you will be made whole. 100% nothing missing, nothing broken. You will find a peace and security in knowing that God loves you that much. He himself will protect his children from any/all hurt. Once you give it (whatever it is that you have been trying to fix yourself) allow him to do his job. You will be immediately healed, delivered and set free. Your mind will be sharper, and your focus will return. This is due to that where there had once been hurt and anger, the love of God now will rest with a larger presence.


I came today to tell you men and women of the Most High God, that we do not have to walk around wounded and scarred. We serve a God who is able to heal us from the inside out. You can be healed without the scars:

Do not walk around all scarred up and damaged, we are the children of the only God who loved us so much that he gave his "only" begotten Son to redeem us back to himself.

Today, men and women of God is your day to be healed without the scars.
Release those things to God and begin to see changes in your life.
