                 THE END OF YOUR MISERY!

Mark 2:17 (LITV) And hearing, Jesus said to them, Those who are strong have no need of a physician, but those badly having illness. I did not come to call the righteous to repentance, but sinners.

Mark 2:17(AMP)  And when Jesus heard it, He said to them, Those who are strong and well have no need of a physician, but those who are weak and sick; I came not to call the righteous ones to repentance, but sinners (the erring ones and all those not free from sin).

Good news He isn’t looking for you to be perfect, He is just looking for YOU!

John 5:2 (AMP)  Now there is in Jerusalem a pool near the Sheep Gate. This pool in the Hebrew is called Bethesda, having five porches (alcoves, colonnades, doorways).

Thayer Definition:  Bethesda = “house of mercy” or “flowing water”

1) the name of a pool near the sheep-gate at Jerusalem, whose waters had curative powers

5 porches= 5 is the number of Grace.  

Porches 1) a portico, a covered colonnade where people can stand or walk protected from the weather and the heat of the sun

Notice this pool was not off tucked away in some lovely secluded area, like a resort might be.  It was next to the gate where the smelly noisy sheep went through to be sold for slaughter!  It was where one would take his sheep to approach the priest for a blessing upon their offering…  Life was going on all around them as usual, passing by them, never giving them a second glance.

They were in plain view! No privacy for their pain and suffering. Nothing to hide their shame or hopelessness.  Here they huddled.  Each locked up in their own world, yet in competition with everyone around them for a chance at a miracle. It was to THIS gate that Jesus came, and approached the pool. The Lamb Himself, who takes away the sin of the world!

John 5:3  In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk, of blind, halt, withered, waiting for the moving of the water.

Thayer Definition:  1) to receive, accept   2) to look for, expect, wait for, await

John 5:4  For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water: whosoever then first after the troubling of the water stepped in was made whole of whatsoever disease he had.

1) due measure   2) a measure of time, a larger or smaller portion of time, hence:

2a) a fixed and definite time, the time when things are brought to crisis, the decisive epoch waited for

2b) opportune or seasonable time

2c) the right time   2d) a limited period of time

2e) to what time brings, the state of the times, the things and events of time

Luke 4:18-21  The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon Me, because He has anointed Me [the Anointed One, the Messiah] to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are oppressed [who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity], To proclaim the accepted and acceptable year of the Lord [the day when salvation and the free favors of God profusely abound. [Isaiah 61:1-2]  (Bullingers:  of one regarding whom there is, or has been made a favourable decision of the will.)   Then He rolled up the book and gave it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing [attentively] at Him. And He began to speak to them: Today this Scripture has been fulfilled while you are present and hearing.

Joh 5:5 (WNT)  And there was one man there who had been an invalid for thirty-eight years.

John 5:6  When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole?

How was this possible?   John 6:63(KJV)  It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.  (MSG)  The Spirit can make life. Sheer muscle and willpower don't make anything happen. Every word I've spoken to you is a Spirit-word, and so it is life-making.

FYI… After the return from the Babylonian Exile, the reconstruction of Jerusalem began at the Sheep Gate: "Then Eliashib the high priest rose up with his brethren the priests and built the Sheep Gate; they consecrated it, and hung its doors" (Neh 3:1).

The “Sheep Gate is a beginning place for reconstruction and renewal…The Sheep gate is actually both the beginning and the end. When they started rebuilding the temple, they started at the Sheep Gate and ended there. It is a representation of the Alpha and Omega, old things passing away and all things becoming new, end of the old, beginning of the new and new beginnings.   

Today is July the 7^th.  It is the 7^th month and the 7^th day.  7 is the number of completion. It is the number of something being finished.  It is the END of something!  I am declaring to you that TODAY is the end of some things in your lives.  It is the end of that sickness. It is the end of the weakness.  It is the end of the torment. It is the end of failure.  THIS day marks the end of those things in your life!  

Just as Jesus commanded the man to do the impossible and to Rise Up.  I am speaking to you to RISE up!  I am declaring it is no longer impossible because GOD has showed up on the scene for YOU!  He has come to take you to the new place.  He has come to deliver you and bring you into your breakthrough.    All He is asking of you is, WILL YOU?  Will you believe?  Will you receive?  Will you leave those things behind you? Will you let go of your idols? Will you stop looking to man to help you, and will you start looking to God? 

If you WILL choose HIM. If you will Love him rather than yourself, or anything else… if you will never mind the shame or the embarrassment, or the fear that has held you back before… He waits for you RIGHT NOW.  RUN to the Altar!   I mean jump up and run!

Catchers get ready to catch because they are going to receive from the hand of God- even as they are coming up.  I see tumors dissolving!  Demons are coming out in the Presence of God.   Stomach pain is leaving. Crippling pain in the legs and feet is leaving you. Headaches are fleeing.  Malaria is going now.  All symptoms and parasites GONE. 

This Word is for one especially, but may be for more – if you identify reach out and receive it. 

 

Healing waters are flowing from the Throne. Just stay in the flow and let Him heal your soul.  There are wounds in your heart.  Disappointments, betrayal even.  There are things that you have held in, that no one knows about…But JESUS is INTIMATELY aware of.  He sees that pain, He knows how you have buried it, but it is not healed.  Today he is healing your heart of the heartbreak.  Let him go into those closed places, behind those sealed and locked doors. Right now He is running a picture through your head of that painful scene but instead of running from it, reach out and grab hold of it and turn and GIVE it to HIM.  See now He is receiving it from you and with it, all the pain, all the damage and mistrust it caused.  It is literally like a thorn being pulled out of your skin but this was in your heart.  Now let all the pus and infection, all the anger and bitterness go. FORGIVE them by the blood of Jesus.  Forgive yourself too. You have blamed yourself in some ways for getting hurt.  Let it go.  Forgive and receive your healing. It is OVER!  Walk in your freedom.  In Jesus Name. Amen.
