There's an old Full Gospel
tradition that says God gets glory from the wonderful way His children
bear pain and agony and that the world is impressed by that. What a lie!
That's simply a tool of the devil to keep God's children in bondage.
People
of the world already have all the pain and agony they want. They aren't
looking for a way into it. They are looking for a way out. They don't
care what you preach. It's the religious people who get worried about
that. The world, the sinners, are smarter than that. All they care about
are the results.
That's why they'll come to your church when they
hear people are getting healed, delivered and set free from suffering.
That's what they're looking for, and that's what God wants them to
receive.
The Bible says that God gets glory when they see the lame
walk and the blind see (Matthew 15:31). Jesus said, "Herein is My
Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit" (John 15:8). What is that
fruit? Lives being restored and healed by the power of God.
There
was a man who came to one of our healing meetings who was so far gone
with cancer he had almost no energy or life about him. He didn't even
know the Lord, but he came expecting a miracle. During the miracle
service, the Lord told Ken someone was being healed of cancer, in the
glands, in the throat, and in the chest. When the man came up and
received his healing, he said, "I left the hospital this morning with
cancer and I'm healed." He went back to the hospital that afternoon and
the doctors checked and dismissed him. As a result, the man received
Jesus as his Lord, and later that day he was restored to his wife from
whom he'd been separated. He got born again, healed and his marriage put
back together in one day!
Now that's fruit! That brings God
glory. When we minister healing and deliverance like Jesus on the earth,
that brings God glory. Let's do away with religious tradition and go
with what the Word says. Let's impress the world with Jesus and give God
the glory today!
