“The Man Who Felt Unworthy”
It was another awesome God appointment this week as we met a very dear friend for lunch on Friday. It’s always so exciting to talk with him because he is so excited to talk and the Lord and ask questions. He is always eager to share Jesus with others, and then delights to tell us about His experiences!
How many know if we aren’t excited to share Jesus with others, we might wonder if that person is really saved!
Our friend told us he likes telling people that Jesus wants to heal them and give them the best. He also let us know that he thought he was going blind a little at a time. He had convinced himself this was going to happen.
We explained that Jesus wants him healed. He thought if this was God’s will to be blind he would just accept it. We talked about what the Bible says in 3 John 2 that the Lord wants us to prosper and be in health even as our soul prospers.
He looked at me and said, “But I’ve done some bad things in my life. I’m not worthy.” As he said it, he began to sob. I looked at him and explained that Jesus made him worthy and when God looks at him, He sees Jesus, who paid the price to make him worthy.
I began to weep right along with him as his heart was being deeply touched by Jesus. It was touching me and Denny too. We were in awe as we watched this unfold.
Then I realized what had happened in the car earlier in the morning while I waited for Denny to come out from his appointment. I had been playing worship music and praying in the spirit as I colored a picture.
Suddenly I saw a scene in a vision and it was our friend that we were to meet for lunch at noon. He was crying. Then I heard the Lord say, “Help Dan.”
As sat there at the lunch table, I told him what I had seen earlier in the car during prayer. He was stunned! Frankly, so was I! It was a heavenly “Wow God, thank You Jesus and Holy Spirit” moment.
After we prayed over his eyes to be healed and went outside to hug and say “see ya later,” I began weeping so hard! It was as if God was showing Dan His love for him and how he was worthy to be healed and blessed, and now He was impressing me with the same thing so deep. I cried so hard!
What a moment that was! He didn’t even know why we were meeting that particular day, he just knew he was supposed to have lunch with us that day. God had set the whole thing up, and the impact that it had on him and all of us was deeply touching! Hallelujah!
Here are the verses that the Lord brought to me that solidify what God was revealing.
”And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.“
I Corinthians 6:11 NKJV
In the previous verses of that chapter, it talks about the way we were before we got born again. Pretty ugly stuff. Even Paul said he had been the chief of sinners but once he met Jesus, he was never the same.
The same with John who went to heaven to be able to write the book of Revelation. He always called himself the disciple whom Jesus loved. He had a revelation of the Lord’s love for him that kept him assured of his heavenly future.
Here’s the other verse,
”Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. Now all things are of God, who has reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation, that is, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them, and has committed to us the word of reconciliation. Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to God. For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.“
II Corinthians 5:17-21 NKJV
There you have it! We accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and he made us justified, just as if we have never sinned. Then He appointed us to be ministers of reconciliation, meaning that we have a duty to tell others about this eternal good news!
Our friend keeps feeling he wants to be a minister to others. That’s Holy Spirit urging him to do it!
So my friend, if you or someone you know feels that you or they are not worthy to be healed, think again! God’s Word makes it clear! Remember, when God our Father looks at us, He sees Jesus! That’s the best news I’ve ever heard, how about you?
As always, we pray this brings revelation to your heart and feel free to share it with others. You can respond to this blog as it is personal to you. Share our number with others.
Love and many blessings! 🙏🏻✝️♥️
