“Stretch Out Your Hand to Heal” 5-11-10

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be exalted today on the throne of my heart; be present today at the center of my life. … “ ‘And now, Lord, … grant to Your servants to speak Your Word with all boldness, while You stretch out Your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through Your holy child Jesus.’ When they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the Word of God with boldness” (Acts 4:29-31). Yes, Lord. Just as it was the cry of the heart of Your first disciples in the beginning of this age of Your Church, so You are reawakening that cry in the hearts of Your disciples here at the end of this age of Your Church. We are Your servants, Your sons and daughters. We are Your Body of Christ, yearning to be filled with the Holy Spirit of Christ, that we many glorify the Name of Christ. In the power of Your Spirit, living in us, would You stretch out Your hand through Your Body to heal. Would You speak forth Your Word through our mouths to bring forth Your life in the final harvest of the earth (Luke 10:2). O Lord, shake us from our slumber. Awaken us to our destiny. Empower us for Your glory. Give us boldness to advance in obedience to Your command and Your commission. Increase the anointing of Presence for healing throughout the earth in this hour. Heal us, so You can use us in Your healing of others. Free us, so You can use us in the freedom of others. May the glory of these latter days be even greater than the glory of the former days (Haggai 2:9). May Your glory be displayed through Your people, proclaiming Your Word and moving in the power of Your Spirit (Isaiah 61:3). And may Your glory cover the earth as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14). Yes, Lord. Like the cry of the heart of Simeon, let us see Your glory displayed mightily in this earth before we die (Luke 2:26). In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today!
