Hospitals are not needed if Jesus can heal the
sick?
You cannot reach the destination where you want to
go unless you get into any bus, even if one thousand
buses are parked in a bus station. The success is
confident for a hard working student. What is the use
in regretting for the failure in studies because of
laziness and drowsiness! We can enjoy a particular
program in the radio only when we tune it to that
particular wavelength and frequency.
What is thereason there is no water in the house,
inspite of having continuous rain? The rainwater was
not carefully collected. Similarly, Jesus will never
leave nor forsake the one who trusts in Him. He said,
“I will not leave you nor forsake you (Josh 1:5). The
Bible teaches that whoever believes on Him will not be
put to shame (Rom 10:11, Is 28:16). God has told
commonly to all, “Ask and that will be given (Mat
7:7). Jesus promised, “If you believe, you will see
the glory of God” (Jn 11:40). The people of His own
village could not inherit any miracle, because they
did not believe in Him (Mat 13:58).
The inner side of a stone is still dry even after socking it for many
years in water. Why? The hardness is the only
reason. An artist looks at a wooden piece as an
aesthetic art. But the same wooden peace is seen as
firewood in the sight of a woman who went to the
forest to collect firewood. Jesus was useless for
the people, who looked at Jesus like a carpenter.
Those who found Jesus as the Son of God, received
miracles. Consider that one preacher is disseminating
the gospel in the street corner. One listener is
mocking at the preacher. The other one received the
word with full heart and was delivered from his sinful
life. For indeed the gospel was preached to us as
well as to them, but the word, which they heard, did
not profit them, not being mixed with faith to those
who heard it (Heb 4:2). Two men are receiving their
wages from a factory. One man extravagantly spends
all his money in drinking and gets into sickness and
at last he dies. But the other man builds a new house
and purchases a vehicle within that money. Money
becomes a poison to one man, and a ladder that lifts
the life to the other man. Can we denounce money?
The matter is contained in how we look at the money.
Similarly, Jesus is a good God for all. He told. “I
will by no means cast out the one who comes to Me (Jn
6:37). How sweet is Jesus who says, “I am the Good
Shepherd: The Good Shepherd gives His life for His
sheep (Jn 10:11). Jesus also says, “You do not
believe, because you are not of My sheep (Jn 10:26).
We must obey to him for He should convert the water
into wine (Jn 2:5). He commanded the servants to fill
the jars with water. They obeyed with faith. They
did not interrogate and argue. When Jesus came near
the tomb of Lazarus, and asked those who were near, to
remove the stone kept to close the tomb, they obeyed
with anticipation. By seeing their faith, Lazarus was
resurrected. Elisha told Naman to dip himself into
the river of Jordan 7 times. He was not healed till
he was questioning and hesitating. The miracle took
place when he obeyed. I can quote hundreds of
examples from the scripture Jesus cannot do any
miracles in the lives of people who keep the name of
Jesus in the list of leaders like Buddha and Gandhi.
He is more than a leader. We cannot receive anything
from Jesus unless you understand Him as the sovereign
God. When Jesus was living in the world in flesh,
many mocked at Him as mad (Jn 10:20). But how they
might have looked at Him, when he resurrected the dead
daughters of the widow of the city of Nain! After the
resurrection of Jesus, the disciples were walking on
the road to Emmans. Jesus was also along with them
without their knowledge. He was misunderstood as a
sojourner to them. But when their eyes were opened,
they know Him as the Lord (Lk 23:31). In the same
way, let us know Jesus more and be uplifted. He who
trusts in the Lord will be prospered (Prov 28:25).
Please read (Heb 11:6).
