INSTANTLY HEALED OF A HEART CONDITION JUST LAST WEEK

Yesterday we talked about the woman that pressed through the crowd and touched the hem of Jesus' garment and was instantly healed.  You know Jesus is still instantly healing people today.  Just last week Pastor laid hands on a man and he was super naturally, instantaneously healed by God.  He had a procedure scheduled the next day to put stints in his heart.    His leg was swollen and purple near the calf,  because of poor blood circulation.  He was unable to get up and go to the bathroom without running out of breath.   He was very sick.  He told Pastor that all of his family had gone on before him and all of them had died of heart failure.   Pastor Bob laid his hands on the man and prayed for him to recover.  He said to the man after the prayer, "When  you go to the doctor tomorrow, the doctor is going to say, Why is this man here?"  The next day he got up early and went to the doctor as planned.  They got him ready for the surgery and the doctor put the scope up his vein, and he turned to the nurse and said, "Why is this man here?"  The doctor pulled the scope out without doing anything to his body.  They could not find any blockages, though they had seen them previously and scheduled the procedure.   Later the doctor told this man that he knew 20 year olds that didn't have a heart in that good of condition.  His leg is no longer swollen and blue.  He can now walk without breathing hard.  This happened just this past week right here in Columbia, KY.  Everyone here knows this man.  Those that know him have given glory to God for this healing.   I know that God still does miracles today, because I have witnessed them, and experienced them first hand. 

A man visited our church.  He has been taught by another denomination that God doesn't do miracles today.  This man said to Pastor Bob, "God doesn't do miracles today, so, if  a miracle was done, where did it come from?  It came from the devil."  Isn't this the same thing they said about Jesus' miracles?    Jesus said to the teachers of the law:

John 7: 19-20 
19Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why go you about to kill me?
20The people answered and said, You have a demon: who goes about to kill you?
21Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and you all marvel.
 
The religious folk accused Jesus of having a devil, is it any wonder that people do the same things today?  They want to deny that God has any power, and attribute all power to the devil.  I have good news for you today, God has POWER and he uses it today.  You can deny the existence of God if you like.   You can deny that he still cares enough about this world to use his power today if you like, but you cannot deny that a man in Columbia was supernaturally and  miraculously healed.  Those who are the blind leading the blind may want to attribute the works of God to the devil, be we know better.  God is a good God, and the devil is a bad devil.  God is the healer, and he is still working miracles today for those who BELIEVE.  People today by their own admission no longer believe in God's power, and then think that their lack of faith is proof that God no longer does miracles today.  We have seen may healings here in Columbia, KY.  Why?  Because we believe.
 
What do you believe?  Jesus said:
 
Matthew 9:29  Then touched he their eyes, saying, According to your faith be it to you.
 
Your faith is the key that unlocks heaven.  Do miracles still happen today?  Yes, they happen for those who believe.  It will be for you according to your faith.  If you go to a church where they do not believe in miracles, don't bother looking for miracles,  you won't find any there.  We receive what we believe!   Our lack of faith is a stumbling block for our prayers.  Our prayers are hindered because we no longer believe.   Can you believe in miracles?  Than get ready to see a miracle.
