HEALING-DOES GOD CARE ABOUT ALL OF ME?
6~/9~/2001 AND 6~/10~/2001
-Last week when I was in service I sensed the Lord leading me to preach about healing this week.
-When we think about healing we think exclusively about the physical body.
-Biblical healing certainly includes that but there is much more.
Mark 5
1 ¶ They went across the lake to the region of the Gerasenes.
2 When Jesus got out of the boat, a man with an evil spirit came from the tombs to meet him.
3 This man lived in the tombs, and no-one could bind him any more, not even with a chain.
4 For he had often been chained hand and foot, but he tore the chains apart and broke the irons on his feet.
No-one was strong enough to subdue him.
5 Night and day among the tombs and in the hills he would cry out and cut himself with stones.
6 When he saw Jesus from a distance, he ran and fell on his knees in front of him.
7 He shouted at the top of his voice, "What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Swear to God that you won't torture me!"
8 For Jesus had said to him, "Come out of this man, you evil spirit!"
9 Then Jesus asked him, "What is your name?" "My name is Legion," he replied, "for we are many."
10 And he begged Jesus again and again not to send them out of the area.
11 A large herd of pigs was feeding on the nearby hillside.
12 The demons begged Jesus, "Send us among the pigs; allow us to go into them."
13 He gave them permission, and the evil spirits came out and went into the pigs.
The herd, about two thousand in number, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned.
14 Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.
15 When they came to Jesus*/, they saw the man who had been possessed by the legion of demons, sitting there, dressed and in his right mind; and they were afraid./*
16 Those who had seen it told the people what had happened to the demon-possessed man--and told about the pigs as well.
17 Then the people began to plead with Jesus to leave their region.
18 As Jesus was getting into the boat, the man who had been demon-possessed begged to go with him.
19 Jesus did not let him, but said, "Go home to your family and tell them how much the Lord has done for you, and how he has had mercy on you."
20 So the man went away and began to tell in the Decapolis how much Jesus had done for him.
And all the people were amazed.
-The title of this passage should be “WHO IS CRAZY NOW?” (The people who saw Jesus heal a crazy man wanted to throw Him out of town!)
-We see a man who had severe problems physically, mentally, and physically.
-If Jesus would have clothed him and cared for his cuts, he still wouldn’t have fixed the problem.
-Adrian Rogers said that if we work on humanitarian problems without addressing the spiritual and eternal, we just make the world a better place to go to hell from.
-We need to address the whole man as a church and as pastor.
-The King James uses a phrase about healing in the New Testament: MADE WHOLE.
Joh 5:6 When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be */made whole/*?
Joh 5:9 And immediately the man was */made whole/*, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
1Th 5:23 ¶ May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through.
May */your whole spirit, soul and body/* be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
(NIV)

HEALING THE HUMAN SPIRIT
-Your spirit is the innermost part of you.
-It is the part of you that can relate to God.
-God told Adam and Eve that they would die when they ate from the forbidden tree.
-They were cut off from God and the part of them that contacted God was estranged.
-Spiritual death is to be separated from God, the author of life.
-Jesus told religious people that they were like whitewashed tombs.
(Somebody was dead inside.)
Genesis 2
7 the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.
John 20
20 After he said this, he showed them his hands and side.
The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.
21 Again Jesus said, "Peace be with you!
As the Father has sent me, I am sending you."
22 And with that he breathed on them and said, "Receive the Holy Spirit.
-The word for Spirit in Hebrew and Greek is the word BREATH.
John 3
1 ¶ Now there was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a member of the Jewish ruling council.
2 He came to Jesus at night and said, "Rabbi, we know you are a teacher who has come from God.
For no-one could perform the miraculous signs you are doing if God were not with him."
3 In reply Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, no-one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again."
4 "How can a man be born when he is old?" Nicodemus asked.
"Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother's womb to be born!"
5 Jesus answered, "I tell you the truth, no-one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.
6 Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit.
7 You should not be surprised at my saying, `You must be born again.'
8 The wind blows wherever it pleases.
You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going.
So it is with everyone born of the Spirit."
-If any man is in Christ-he is a new creation.
-Spiritual healing comes from hooking your hose to the hydrant of LIFE.
Proverbs 4
23 Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
-A lot of things are fixed when you get this part right.
-It is amazing to see life spring up when water hits it!

HEALING FOR YOUR SOUL
-The word for soul in Greek is “psuche”.
-Of course we get our word psychology from this word, the study of our soul.
-It literally means: life~/mind~/heart~/person. It is the seat of the emotions, will, and understanding.
-It is the inward part of the human personality.
-It is the bridge between the spirit and body.
1 Peter 2
19 For it is commendable if a man bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because he is conscious of God.
20 But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it?
But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God.
21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.
22 "He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth."
23 When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats.
Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.
24 He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.
25 For you were like sheep going astray, but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.
(NIV)
-Literally we have returned to the Sheperd and Overseers of our psuches~/souls.
-Jesus wants us to have a sound mind with emotions that are dependant upon Him.
-We addressed this last week with the subject of forgiveness and confronting inward contamination and bitterness.
-This has to do with:
