Word of the Day

Thank you Jesus for all your blessings! Praise the Lord!

We give you all the glory! You are worthy to be praised!

Thank you for joining us today! If you are new to this blog, please take the time to post a comment on what you have read today and let us know what you think. We value your opinion. For those joining us who have followed us since the beginning, this blog is designed for Heavenly Healing Ministries to share the Word of the Day and teach on the Word of God.

"...someone said to Him, 'Lord, I will follow You wherever You go'" (Luke 9:57).
OUR LORD'S attitude toward this man was one of severe discouragement, "for he knew what was in man" (John 2:25). We would have said, "I can't imagine why He lost the opportunity of winning that man! Imagine being so cold to him and turning him away so discouraged!" Never apologize for your Lord. The words of the Lord hurt and offend until there is nothing left to be hurt or offended. Jesus Christ had no tenderness whatsoever toward anything that was ultimately going to ruin a person in his service to God. Our Lord's answers were not based on some whim or impulsive thought, but on the knowledge of what was in man. If the Spirit of God brings to your mind a word of the Lord that hurts you, you  can be sure that there is something in you that He wants to hurt to the point of its death.
     Luke 9:58. These words destroy the argument of serving Jesus Christ because it is a pleasant thing to do. And the strictness of the rejection that He demands of me allows for nothing to remain in my life but my Lord, myself, and a sense of desperate hope. He says that I must let everyone else come or go, and that I must be guided solely by my relationship to Him. And He says, "...the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head."
     Luke 9:59. This man did not want to disappoint Jesus, nor did he want to show a lack of respect for his father. We put our sense of loyalty to our relatives ahead of our loyalty to Jesus Christ, forcing Him to take last place. When your loyalties conflict, always obey Jesus Christ whatever the cost.
     Luke 9:61. The person who says, "Lord, I will follow You, but...," is the person who is intensely ready to go, but never goes. This man has reservations about going. The exacting call of Jesus has no room for good-byes; good-byes, as we often use them, are pagan, not Christian, because they divert us from the call. Once the call of God comes to you, start going and never stop.

  We like to close every Word of the Day by making sure you have the opportunity to ask Jesus in your heart. 

    So please pray,  Lord Jesus, I accept that you were born of a virgin, died on the cross and  shed your blood for my sins to be forgiven and rose again to be Lord and King. I repent of my sins and ask that you come into my life and be Lord and Savior and live in my heart. 

Amen
    Friends, if you just prayed this prayer, you are born again, and I pray that you grow in your walk with Jesus and develop an intimate relationship with Him. Get in a good Holy Spirit filled church and come to a place of worship with Him. If you just said this prayer, please send us an email, we would love to know.

Thank you for joining us and please come back everyday for a new Word of the Day.

Sincerely,

Heavenly Healing Ministries
