The Gospel Is the Power

April 26, 2021
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the
power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth;
to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.—ROMANS 1:16
The Gospel Is the Power
The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation to everyone
who believes, to the Jew first and also the Greek. I have a
footnote in my Bible that says the word “salvation” means
deliverance, safety, preservation, healing, and soundness. In
this Gospel of salvation, there is not only remission of sins and
the New Birth, but there’s also healing.
I heard about some meetings that Brother T. L. Osborn had in
Africa. Blind people were instantly healed while he was
preaching. He never prayed for anyone. He never laid hands on
anyone. There were about seven or eight people in attendance
who were chained like animals. They were down on all fours.
Some of them were naked; they were making funny sounds like
animals. They were demon-possessed.
Brother Osborn preached, “Jesus is the same today as He was
when He was on the earth. When He was on the earth, He
healed people. Jesus is alive and He is here in Spirit. He will
heal people now, just as He did then.”
You see, the Gospel is the power. No one touched or prayed
for these men in chains. One fellow was on all fours barking like
a dog. Suddenly, he lifted up his head and said, “Jesus, Jesus.”
Then he stood up like a man and was instantly all right. Every
single one of them stood up and was instantly delivered. What happened? The Gospel went forth. The Word of God
went forth! The Gospel is the power of God unto healing. When
the Gospel, the Word of God, gets into people, it will heal them.
Confession:
The Word of God is the power of God. As I read the Word and
meditate on the Word, I am healed

STERLING LEADERSHIP

D.C.L.M. DAILY   MANNA WEDNESDAY 9TH MAY, 2018 STERLING LEADERSHIP TEXT: GENESIS 47:13-31 KEY VERSE: “And they said, Thou hast saved our lives: let us find grace in the sight of my lord, and we shall be Pharaoh’s servants” (GENESIS 47:25). “No one needs aspire to leadership in the work of God who is not willing to pay the price greater than his/her contemporaries and colleagues are willing to pay. The more effective the leader is, the higher the price to be paid”, said J Oswald. Joseph stands out as an enduring proof of what the grace of God can do for a perfect, upright and diligent child of God. The expected season of the lean kine finally came. Pharaoh was prepared only because of Joseph’s astuteness in the management of the trust conferred upon him. He started to alleviate the suffering of masses by exchanging corn for money, then corn for land. In an uncanny display of shrewdness, he ultimately transferred the national wealth and citizens to the crown and saved ...

WELL OF LIFE

March 3 WELL OF LIFE The mouth of a righteous man is a well of life . . . . — PROVERBS 10:11 Immediately after the birth of our son and daughter, I took those little ones into my hands and said, “Lord, I thank You for this child. Because I know the Bible, I realize it is my responsibility to train up this child in the way it should go, and when it is old, it will not depart from it. “I realize Your Word says to bring our children up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, and I’m going to do that. I know that children are taught in two ways: By precept and by example. So I’m going to live right in front of this child. I will set the right example. Then, too, I know that you can have what you say, so I say over this child that it will grow up strong physically, without sickness and without disease; it will be alert mentally; and stalwart spiritually.” Our children grew up without sickness and disease. I never prayed a prayer that they would be saved. I never prayed a prayer that they...

PARALYZED

April 15 PARALYZED Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil. — HEBREWS 2:14 . . . That He might paralyse him that held the dominion of death, That is the Adversary. — HEBREWS 2:14 (Rotherham) Jesus put to naught the hosts of darkness! He paralyzed their deathdealing power! And when Jesus met John the Revelator on the Isle of Patmos, Jesus said, “I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death” (Rev. 1:18). Keys represent authority. Jesus conquered Satan and stripped him of his authority. Jesus was the Master of all hell! But Jesus did not conquer Satan for Himself. He conquered him for us. It was as though you and I personally had met Satan and had conquered him, stripped him of his authority, and stood as master over him. Confession: Jesus is my Head. Jesus i...
