Warriors Arise: October 3, 2021
Matthew 8:1-3 (NKJV) When He had come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed Him. 2 And behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 3 Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.
Have you been hugged by maybe your Dad or held my your Mom and felt your insides deflate into their arms? When their love pours into you it is like the code that has opened a vaulted door. Everything that has built up inside of you is laid open to receive the touch of their love. For a moment it is as if time has stopped. Then they begin to speak over you, "I believe in you. I know you can do this. I know you are an overcomer. You can achieve the dreams God has put into your heart. You have a magnificent mind and can accomplish this task before you. You have enduring passion to see this through."
At that point, every thought that has stood against you is cast down. At that moment, their words are a flushing of the emotions that have taken you off track. At that outpouring, you feel your body is cleansed and rejuvenated. There is a strength even a surge to rise up from the depths of devastation and move forward in freedom.
Proverbs 24:16 (NKJV)
For a righteous man may fall seven times And rise again,
But the wicked shall fall by calamity.
This leper received the touch of Jesus and the devastation of what had been stolen from him because of the leprosy is open. Jesus then speaks to every doubt, every hurt, and the pain of his past washing him with the love of God, "I am willing." Jesus left there to be no question in this man's life, He was willing. Healing came immediately and the devastation was over!
"I am willing," those are three powerful words. To know God is willing to touch us and answer our petition is absolutely overwhelming for those who feel beaten down by the devastation they have had to endure for so long.
Father, I am incredibly thankful, You are willing. You reach out Your hand and touch my life. You pour Your love over my mind and free me from thoughts that have trapped me and held me from my purpose. You cleanse my body, every cell, fiber, and organ with the power of Your love. I am Your child and You care for me. I position myself before You in worship. I make my request known, receive Your touch and hear Your words. You restore what has been taken from me. You renew my mind and strengthen my resolve to walk in the truth of all You are and all You have created me to be. I will worship You in Jesus' name amen.
