Yes, we must preach the Name of Jesus Christ, until everyone knows Him. Jesus gave us, the Great Commission, (NLT) Mark 16:15-18. And then he told them, “Go into the world and preach the Good News to everyone, everywhere. 16 Anyone who believes and is baptized will be saved. But anyone who refuses to believe will be condemned. 17 these signs will accompany those who believe: They will CAST in my name, and they will speak new languages. * 18 they will be able to handle snakes with safety, and if they drink anything poisonous, it wont hurt them, they will able to place their hands on the SICK and HEAL them.” Now, we as Christians must help those who need to be helped in Jesus Might Name. If anybody asks you to pray for he or she, pray for him or her, it could be God wants you to pray for him or her. We must be obedient to God. When people asked me to pray for them, I immediately pray for he or she. In God, there is no shame at all, if you are ashamed, then God will be ashamed of you.
Many times, I have witnessed the Power of the Holy Spirit comes upon them; I could tell when my arms become warm, including my body. Don’t be embarrassed about it; no one has any power in this world, except the Lord Jesus Christ. If nothing came about it when you prayed for he or she, don’t worry, many times, it is not you, it could be he or she didn’t ask God for forgiveness or he or she didn’t confess all of their sins. In other words, sometimes he or she is hiding something from you and God. All you are doing is asking God on behalf of him or her to heal them, in Jesus Mighty Name. The end results will be upon the Lord’s decision, not yours or mine.
Sometime you may win or sometime you may lose, but keep on trying. All to gain! If they got healed of their sickness problems, Praise the Lord! As you can see, we must try, if one prayer didn’t work, pray again and again. Now as a Pastor or Minister, mustn’t have anything negative in his or her mind at all, such thinking in the back of his or her mind, thinking, I wonder if this will work, with that in mind, it may not work at all, but only with a positive faith and mind, it will work. This includes the person that you are praying for must have a strong faith with the Lord. Sometime, I could be able to see when a he or she are praying from their heart, sometime the color of the skin glows in a beautiful color. Praise the Lord!
I encourage all Pastors or Ministers to pray and teach his or her members about healing. Just have them form small group circles and they can be able to pray for each other in the church. It will be a good healing exercise for the members and let the Elders or Deacons of the church help all of them in the groups by becoming assisting to the Pastor of the church. For the Pastor or Minister, it may become fewer problems for him or her in the church. Will that be wonderful in the church? Does it make sense to you? Of course, it makes sense! “Less problems, less work” Everything may run much more smoothly in the church. AMEN! (So be it)
I pray this message will be vey helpful to you and your church.
From Pastor Jimmy Nishimoto and Chris Eliason
