When Your Back Is against The Wall. Part [16] 11/30/2025 (Morning thought)

Mark 5:29 And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague.

Therefore, after she had done all that she could to find a cure, she turned to the Mighty Healer for help and sure enough, she got an answer in the positive. In other words, the Bible teaches us to exhaust all God-ordained options, while living in harmony with the light that has been shed on our pathway, and if everything fails, we can look to God for help…. [Medical Ministry pp 13>14] Many have expected that God would keep them from sickness merely because they have asked Him to do so.

[Medical Ministry pp 13>14] But God did not regard their prayers, because their faith was not made perfect by works. God will not work a miracle to keep those from sickness who have no care for themselves, but are continually violating the laws of health and make no efforts to prevent disease. The way in which Christ worked was to preach the word, and to relieve suffering by miraculous works of healing. But I am instructed that we cannot now work in this way; for Satan will exercise his power by working miracles.

God’s servants today could not work by means of miracles because spurious works of healing claiming to be divine, will be wrought. For this reason, the Lord has marked out a way in which His people are to carry forward a work of physical healing combined with the teaching of the word. This is the provision the Lord has made whereby gospel medical missionary work is to be done for many souls. These institutions are to be established out of the cities, and in them educational work is to be intelligently carried forward.

Matthew 28:19 Go you therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!

1st Corinthians 9:26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beats the air. 27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.

[Patriarchs & Prophets pp 562] True temperance teaches us to dispense entirely with everything hurtful and to use judiciously that which is healthful. There are few who realize as they should how much their habits of diet have to do with their health, their character, their usefulness in this world, and their eternal destiny. The appetite should ever be in subjection to the moral and intellectual powers. The body should be servant to the mind, and not the mind to the body.

Therefore, the next time you walk down the aisle at Publix, and you hear Ben and Jerrys beckoning to you from the freezer, here’s a simple prayer that will keep them at bay: “In the name of Jesus Christ, I rebuke you satan”. This leads us to our third and final point pertaining to God’s health care plan: [3] In most cases, miracles from God are to be your last resort, when the arm of flesh has failed and you have done all that you can possibly do.

Mark 5: 25 And a certain woman, who had an issue of blood twelve years, 26 And had suffered many things of many physicians and had spent all that she had, and was nothing bettered, but rather grew worse…. In our day, this woman would have run out of other options, she would have spent all her money on her premiums, and, the health care system would have failed her, because her primary care doctor, as well as the specialists would have told her that there was nothing else they could do.

Mark 5:27 When she had heard of Jesus, came in the press behind, and touched his garment.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!
