Use Your God Given Talents To Lay Hands On The Sick So They’ll Recover


Jesus essentially states in Matthew 28:18 and Mark 16:15-18  that we have been commissioned to go to the world.  There are many who do the work of spreading the Good News. 

Some are teachers, assistants, ministers, evangelists, etc.  God has given us multiplicity of craftsmanship, skills, and talent.  Jesus demonstrated signs and wonders as he went around spreading the Gospel.  He was not behind a pulpit every Sunday. 

So many people in the world are sick. Sick of their husbands, sick of their jobs, sick of their wives or just sick of their lives.  Sick of their friends, relatives or kids.  Some people are sick of food, TV, or the world.  Many people are sick of the Church and the Mosque.  We are simply catalysts and conduits used by God to reveal signs and wonders in peoples lives. 

People want to hear about God so that they can see miracles in their lives and come back to tell you what God used you to do in their lives.  Signs and wonders are not just demonstrated because you lay hands on someone and they fall out on the floor. 

Even a hairdresser can demonstrate Signs and Wonders in the Beauty Industry.  Because you are so filled with faith, the holy spirit will enable people to be healed because you colored their hair, applied hair extensions or braids, or simply put on your styling cape.

People were healed by touching Paul’s handkerchief, aprons or towels. Acts 19:11-12(Amplified) says “ And God did unusual and extraordinary miracles by the hands of Paul, So that handkerchiefs or towels or aprons which had touched his skin were carried away and put upon the sick, and their diseases left them and the evil spirits came out of them.”

Paul might not have even known about the signs and wonders that were taking place when people left him. But he was willing to be used as a vessel.

In the profession of hairdressing and beauty, women are looking for miracles not only to restore their hair, but to heal.  In the cosmetic and beauty industry, external beauty is much more important than internal beauty.  While we know that ones external attractiveness  is seen before ones internal beauty ;  it is a proven fact when one is healed from within their external physical attributes are brightened and improved.

 The study of science shows that if ones internal homeostasis is balanced they are able to do more physically. The study of  medicine asserts that healing is from within.  A person that shines shoes  can be used in their profession by God.

ARE YOU A COUNTERFEIT CHRISTIAN ?

Are you desiring to enrich, empower and encourage others to emulate your example in your walk with Jesus Christ, or are people calling you a hypocrite?

Curry R. Blake said: “If your Gospel isn’t touching others, it hasn’t touched you!” Is your time, treasures and talents being used to populate heaven? God has enabled you to discover your talent, has taught you how to develop it and now that you have been deployed to profit from that talent- we have to help others to never give up on their dormant dreams and talents.
2nd Corinthians 13:5(Amplified) says “Examine and test and evaluate your own selves to see whether you are holding to your faith and showing proper fruits of it. Test and prove your selves [not Christ]. Do you not yourselves realize and know [thoroughly by an ever-increasing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you-unless you are [counterfeits] disapproved on trial and rejected?" 

Even during Bible times, so many people did not “get” the Gospel.  In Acts 8:27-31, Even an Ethiopian eunuch of great authority under Candance the Queen of Ethiopian in charge of all her treasure was reading the  book of Prophet Isaiah when the holy spirit sent Philip to ask him “Do you really understand what you are reading?”  The man of great authority then says “ How is it possible for me to do unless someone explains it to me and guides me [in the right way]?”  Then he requested inertly for Phillip to come and sit beside him.

Millions of people go to church and just do not understand the Gospel.
There are people who have died and are asking God to send people like us to warn their relations and friends who are in church or in the world to have a relationship with God. Lets start serving and saving the lost in and outside of the church with what the Gospel is in works. Ask God to make your life daily proof of the millions of examples of his greatness in the Bible. The daily works of Jesus Christ not only showed proof of the faith he professed-but that God is real.
 We must use our time and treasures that we gain to be used to populate heaven. We can demonstrate heaven on earth when we stir up God’s gift in us and give it to propagate the Gospel/ Good News of Jesus Christ.
