JESUS SAVES AND HEALS

In front of the church where my father pastored for 22 years, on Jensen Drive in North Houston, there was a lighted cross high up on a pole. The vertical portion read “JESUS”, the left arm read “SAVES” and the right arm read “HEALS”. When my father got wondrously saved in the downtown Houston area he was taught the Word of God by Mother Hudson, Dad Richey, Raymond T. Richey, Brother Gerhardt, Harry Hodge and several other men and women of God he spoke to me of over the years. The message he was taught was always JESUS and that same JESUS HEALS AND SAVES. I heard him preach that message hundreds of times and know of many people it impacted and lives that were changed. It still impacts me and my preaching. I am the 13th preacher to come out from under my father’s ministry at Jensen Drive Assembly of God. I have preached that message hundreds of times over the last 46 years and I cannot help but encourage you with it again, JESUS SAVES AND HEALS!

Being Still and Watching

A unique aspect of the experience of the storm vision was that I was not being awakened to intercede in prayer but to be aware of what God Himself was doing.  It seemed He was saying, “There is a time to be still and watch for my move,”; there is a time to “Be still and know that I am God”.  We can certainly participate with our Father through prayer and we can participate through receiving His answers with a grateful heart.  Beyond that, we can also participate simply as a witness to what He is doing.

Having Influence

We cannot have any more influence with someone than they have value for us.  When we refresh someone or meet a need, value is established.  Friendship and loyalty are of great value. “They have refreshed my spirit and yours. You should recognize the value of people like these.” (1Cor.16:18, NCV)

Cleaving to God and Seeing Promise

It is God’s will for us to walk in the commandments of the LORD GOD and keep His Word so that our days may be increased. God increases our days so that we, and our children, might walk in the realization of promise fulfilled.  (Deut.11:21-22, Amp) “That your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, as long as the heavens are above the earth. 22 For if you diligently keep all this commandment which I command you to do, to love the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways, and to cleave to Him—“  We are praying you discover daily that you are cleaving to God and keeping His life-giving Word. (Marty’s Daily Discovery as heard at the bottom of each hour on Texas Praise Internet Radio).

Stirring for Breakthrough

After the second week when I was awakened to a literal storm, seven days later, I awoke at 3:00 A.M.  This time there was silence.  I went to the living room and sat on the sofa.  I knew in the Bible that the number three marks the completion of a God-process for a God-purpose. The first week, I had heard the sounds of battle as the Lord of breakthroughs cleared a gate into the earth.  In the second week, I heard His voice thunder from the first heaven, it’s creative force breaking into the earth’s atmosphere with His spoken intent.  The silence of this third week seemed to be a seal of completion upon His breakthroughs. I remembered again that what I was witnessing was completely His doing like He said in John 14:14, “I myself will do for you.”  A confidence settled in me that a God-momentum had been loosed in the earth that would bring God-changes in the days ahead.  I knew He was breaking through for many more than just myself, but the impact on me personally stirred me to hope and to worship.  (Third excerpt from Kathy’s article “Breakthroughs Coming”— First excerpt was posted on 1-15-18)

Encouragement to Move Forward

As the people of God assemble today, may they report to one another and encourage one another with dreams, visions and prophetic confirmations that inspire each one to move forward in faith and hope to the horizons Almighty God has as He manifests His sons/daughters as salve and solution to the groaning of creation.  (1Thess.5:11, NKJV) ”Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.”

Is it Really God’s Fault?

(Gen 1:28a) “And God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule…”   Considering the definitions of God’s original (and unchanged) intention (“subdue” and “rule”), it would appear that we have a mission laid out before us with authority to get it done. Scripture offers the understanding that the Last Adam has won back all that the first Adam forfeited. It would appear that God actually is not responsible for evil happenings since He handed over the earth to Adam to “subjugate,” “prevail against,” “reign,” “tread down” and “keep under”.  (Marty is speaking this weekend at the DREAMS VISIONS PROPHECY CONFERENCE at Cornerstone Brenham,TX.

Life Meant to be Epic

“The hearing ear and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made both of them.” (Prov.20:12)  We are all capable of living a prophetic lifestyle without being a Prophet.  Sometimes we train ourselves to ignore the Prophetic Lifestyle because we don’t want to be weird. This really is an epic life we are meant to live. Don’t ignore it. This life is meant to be epic!—Melissa

Dreams Can Help Us

The definition of the Hebrew word dream, “chalam” (khay lem) means to strengthen, restore to health or facilitate recovery. So, these dreams can help us physically, psychologically and emotionally by getting issues up into our awareness where we can confront them and resolve them and not allow them to silently undermine us or our health.—Kathy Gabler
