GOD ANOINTED JESUS OF NAZARETH WITH THE HOLY GHOST
AND WITH POWER: WHO WENT ABOUT DOING GOOD, AND
HEALING ALL THAT WERE OPPRESSED OF THE DEVIL; FOR GOD
WAS WITH HIM. ACTS 10:38
THIS SAME JESUS HEALS—YESTERDAY, TODAY
AND FOREVER! ACTS 1:11; HEBREWS 13:8

19 THEN THEY CRY UNTO THE LORD IN
THEIR TROUBLE, AND HE SAVETH THEM
OUT OF THEIR DISTRESSES.
20 HE SENT HIS WORD, AND HEALED
THEM, AND DELIVERED THEM FROM
THEIR DESTRUCTIONS.
Look at verse 20 again: "He sent his
WORD, and healed them, and delivered
them from their destructions." Why?
Verse 1 is the answer: BECAUSE HE IS SO
GOOD! How can you just sit there? Wait a
minute now, that's not all. Acts 10:38 is
another eye-opener to the goodness of
God:
38 HOW GOD ANOINTED JESUS OF
NAZARETH WITH THE HOLY GHOST
AND WITH POWER: WHO WENT ABOUT
DOING GOOD, AND HEALING ALL THAT
WERE OPPRESSED OF THE DEVIL; FOR
GOD WAS WITH HIM.
God (who is so good) anointed Jesus of
Nazareth with the Holy Ghost (who is so
good) and power, who went about doing
good and healing all that were
oppressed of the devil, who is so bad.
Now let's go over to Romans 8:11:
11 BUT IF THE SPIRIT OF HIM THAT
RAISED UP JESUS FROM THE DEAD
DWELL IN YOU, HE THAT RAISED UP
CHRIST FROM THE DEAD SHALL ALSO
QUICKEN YOUR MORTAL BODIES BY HIS
SPIRIT THAT DWELLETH IN YOU.
The same power that raised Jesus from
the dead is in you and me. That same
Spirit is in us, bringing His life into our
mortal bodies. How? By faith. Just as a
quick refresher, lets read Hebrews 11:1 in
the Amplified Bible, Classic Edition:
1 NOW FAITH IS THE ASSURANCE (THE
CONFIRMATION, THE TITLE DEED) OF
THE THINGS [WE] HOPE FOR, BEING
THE PROOF OF THINGS [WE] DO NOT
SEE AND THE CONVICTION OF THEIR
REALITY [FAITH PERCEIVING AS REAL
