Signs & Wonders - Inner Healing 2

Jesus Desires to heal the inner hurts in our lives and in the lives of those we minister to.

I Believe

• God is pouring out His Spirit on people everywhere.
• As a result people are being saved, delivered from oppression and healed of their hurts.

Healing of the wounded soul is one of the main areas the Holy Spirit does His work.

Sin

• Is the reason why there are so many wounded people in the world. Jesus came to destroy the power of sin and the works of the Devil.

Matthew 8:23

• Jesus rebuked the storm. Jesus can rebuke the storms in our lives.
1. A storm of mental torment
2. A storm of emotional turmoil
3. A storm of spiritual oppression

Two Demon possessed men coming from the tombs met Him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way.

They Declared

• That Jesus was the Son of God.
• Did Jesus come to torture us before the appointed time. Demons know a time of God’s judgment is coming for them and they also know Jesus could do it then and there. (Matt. 8:29)

Demons Need

A body to inhabit so they asked Jesus, “If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs.”

Jesus told them to go and they went into the pigs and the pigs went crazy and all jumped into the lake and drowned.

The Pig Herders

• Went and reported all this, including what happened to the demon possessed men.
• The town’s pork industry was ruined by Jesus so they pleaded with Jesus to leave their region.

Our Number 1 Mental Health Problem

• In America is depression.
• Millions of Americans suffer from mental disorders.
• Jesus can heal any inner hurt that causes mental and emotional disorders.

Christians & Mental Problems

• Some Christians suffer from depression and/or psychosis.
• Jesus desires to heal any infirmity in our lives.
• If you are under a doctors care and you sense that Jesus has healed you, go to your doctor and allow them to examine you and they will declare you whole.

Our Soul Needs

• Restoration. (Psalm 23:1-3)
• God has always watched over you and He always will.
• Our soul is our mind, emotions and will.
• The Holy Spirit comes along side and makes us completely whole--body, mind and spirit.

Some Physical Ailments

• Are the result of fractured soul. Ulcers, migraine headaches, forms of arthritis and even cancer can be the result of a fractured soul.

The Holy Spirit

• Can come upon us and make us whole and complete. Peter is a great example of this; after the Day of Pentecost Peter was transformed into a new man.
• Can transform us into new people.
