Great Evangelist

2 Kings 5:1-19

My disadvantage is God’s opportunity (weakness, shortcoming, difficulty) She little girl, he is general; she is slave, he is successful man; she is believer, he is pagan; she is Israelite, he is Syrian Your weakness is not cause of defeat but open door for power of Christ Paul was in chains but witnessed about Jesus to those who were on the throne “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. There most gladly I will rather roast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” 2 Cor.12:9 David is just a youth, he was soldier from youth. One is heavy armed another is completely naked Your shortcoming is opportunity for Holy Spirit

Being small is advantage for great faith (plus, benefit, help) It’s not how small you are but how big your faith is The size of your faith is more important than the size of your problem Father who had son (fire, water, convulsion) big problem, Jesus was looking at faith Sky is not the limit your faith is Bring as much vessels as you can – oil stops when there is no more vessels

Faith in Saving & Healing Power of Jesus Sometimes people need to be saved before they can be healed, others need to be healed before saved Salvation & Healing was purchased at the same PLACE, TIME, PERSON. They were not separate on cross

Healing is for EVERYONE Healing is not proof of your holiness, but proof of God’s goodness toward you – to lead you to repentance If you’re healthy God has been good to you (not you’re good), if you’re sick, God wants to be good toward you Healing is EASY. Healing is FREE. Salvation is free – sinner can’t pay Sick people don’t have money, they spent all of it on medicine Blind Bartimeous – after healing started to follow – after healing started going somewhere

My sickness is taking away everything from me. Hospitals keep calling for money and that’s all I do. I can’t save to get through this…helplessness is the best description. There is no cure for what I have. I had to withdraw from college this semester, so I owe school 3,500 to school and pay this semester myself
