“He can do exceedingly abundantly above all that you could ask or think, and his riches will meet your needs 100%.”

Ephesians 3:20
Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us

“I was preaching the good news of the healing power of God when a lady shouted out from the back of the church, ‘I can see! I can see!’.” My friend, David, was sharing how a lady was healed of blindness in a service where he preached. Rachel had been blind for almost all her life. After she received her healing, she went to the doctor for a check-up. He confirmed that she had received 80% of her sight back. The church was ecstatic when she shared this the next Sunday. “But,” said David, “God is not the God of the 80%. God is the God of the 100%.” He prayed for her again. A few weeks later she returned to the church to share that she was now blessed with 20/20 vision.

The God that we serve is the God of 100%. When God created the world and everything in it, it was good. God is not a god of the half measure. All that God is and all that God does is perfect and whole. When the Scripture says that we are saved by Christ’s blood and healed by his stripes then we are saved and healed 100%.

Whatever prospects you face today, whatever your need, I stand with you in agreement that the Lord will meet all your needs according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. He can do exceedingly abundantly above all that you could ask or think, and his riches will meet your needs 100%.

God-tracking is believing for 100%

“Your Bible is your greatest treasure. Don’t rush the reading of the Bible. You have the rest of your life to read the Bible, so read the Bible for the rest of your life.”

Psalm 119:162
I rejoice at Your word as one who finds great treasure.

I love watching treasure hunter documentaries on television. They are always filled with intrigue and adventure. We watch as the presenter and his team, metal detector in hand, climb into a deep cave on the hunt for a pirate’s treasure chest loaded with pieces of eight and gold bullion. Sadly, however, they never seem to find the object of the investigation.

However, there is a treasure that you and I can find without scoring the depths of a cave. This treasure is more valuable than gold and sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. It is the auspicious treasure of the word of God.

It is said that when the famous missionary, Dr. David Livingstone, started his trek across Africa he had 73 books in 3 packs, weighing 180 pounds. After the party had gone 300 miles, Livingstone was obliged to throw away some of the books because of the fatigue of those carrying his baggage. As he continued his journey his library grew less and less, until he had but one book left – his Bible.

The Bible is a library of 66 books penned by 36 people over a period of 1,500 years, yet all the writings of these ancient scriptures are in agreement. All scripture is inspired by the One true God. In my 4 decades of following Christ, I have found the Bible to be my greatest guide. However, the holy scriptures of the Bible do not stand alone. The word of God is synonymous with the Spirit of God, for the word of God is the sword of the Spirit. The word confirms the actions of the Spirit while the Spirit activates the word.

Make reading the Bible a daily habit. Your Bible is your greatest treasure. Don’t rush the reading of the Bible. You have the rest of your life to read the Bible, so read the Bible for the rest of your life.

God-tracking is reading the Bible.

“May we take up our crosses and suffer for the sake of righteousness but, in the name of Jesus the Healer, refuse the suffering of sickness and physical harm. For by his wounds, we have been healed!”

Romans 8:17
…and if children, then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.

Suffering! Suffering is a theological concept that has been taught through the ages of Christianity. But suffering takes on two guises: natural suffering of sickness or physical harm or human suffering of persecution. Scripture tells us that if we suffer with Christ, we may also be glorified with Christ. So, what type of suffering did Jesus endure?

Jesus is God incarnate. One of God’s names is Jehovah Rapha. Directly translated this name means the LORD our Healer. So, as the Son of God, Jesus is Jehovah Rafa and Jesus healed many people of natural suffering while he walked on earth. In fact, more than 2 thirds of all the miracles that Jesus performed were miracles of healing. Therefore, I think it’s safe to say since Jesus removed natural suffering from people, natural suffering is not the type of suffering implied that we need to endure in order to be glorified in Christ.

Jesus did say, however, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.” The cross was a symbol of intense suffering at the hands of man. By this statement, Jesus was implying that if we desire to be his followers, we need to be ready to suffer. Indeed. However, the suffering of crucifixion (the cross) was not natural suffering, such as with sickness or disease, it was suffering imposed by the hand of man. That is, crucifixion and the suffering that Jesus endured was persecution. Jesus was persecuted by the religious people of his day to the point of death. Jesus did not resist or retaliate against this type of suffering. Jesus welcomed it because he knew that, after he had suffered for a little while, he would be glorified to the right hand of God in majesty. Therefore, willingly suffering persecution is taking up your cross to the glory of  God. But willingly suffering natural pain, disease or physical harm violates the ethics of the nature and ministry of Christ.

So, may we take up our crosses and suffer for the sake of righteousness but, in the name of Jesus the Healer, refuse the suffering of sickness and physical harm. For by his wounds, we have been healed!

God-tracking is taking up your cross to follow Christ.

“I make a choice today to pick up my cross when people persecute me for your sake and suffer with Christ that I may be glorified in him.”

“Dear God I have been suffering this illness for too long. I realise now that natural suffering does not glorify you. Therefore, I reject this suffering and claim the physical healing promised by your word. However, dear Lord, I am willing to suffer for the sake of righteousness. I make a choice today to pick up my cross when people persecute me for your sake and suffer with Christ so that I may be glorified in him. Amen.”
