When God's people come together, there is a corporate anointing. Healing flows and miracles happen.
The church didn't come about because Israel rejected God. The church was in God's heart. It is a mystery hidden in the ages. The gates of hell cannot prevail against the church. This means that we are attacking the gates of hell. Our weapons are not materials. When we speak and preach, lives are transformed.
There was a woman with an issue of blood for 12 years. She heard about Jesus. She heard testimonies of people sharing how their sons got healed. When asked, Jesus was the name. She came and touched the helm of Jesus only to be healed.
Sin will not have power over you when you are under grace. As preachers, we should teach people that they are under grace. Someone good received something bad which He did not deserve.
Pastor shared a testimony.
There is a couple who was married for 33 years but their marriage was failing When your marriage has become mundane, invite Jesus and be occupied with Jesus. They were separated but not divorced. One day, as she was with her friend, she was introduced to the grace message. She carefully introduced this to her husband. God's grace manifested in him slowly. Subsequently, their marriage improved by leaps and bounds.

When you have shalom in your life, you whole being prospers. When you say peace to someone, know it is paid for. Jesus paid for your peace today.
How do we increase in this peace for our health and life?
When you work harder in the gym, you become fit. Health comes from the Lord.
God talked about the entire universe in one chapter. But God devoted redemption in ten chapters. Creation is fallen. We live in a fallen world. God spent ten chapters to talk about redemption. If you think that eating organic food helps, know that the world has fallen. God paid for your health. The way to grow in favour, peace and health is to see more about Jesus. In the knowledge of Jesus, grace and peace is multiplied.

John 1:40-42
Verse 42: We are Cephas (translated as A Stone)
Verse 42: We are Cephas (translated as A Stone)
Jesus saw the multitudes and were pushing towards Him. There were two boats and Jesus chose to step into Peter's boat. Jesus told Peter to go into the sea and cast the nets. But Peter who toiled all night agreed to throw in one net. When the fishes almost broke the net, he hugged Jesus' knees and told Him he was sinful and to depart from him.
Progress is slow when you don't have Jesus. The disciples were rowing against the wind and only covered 3 miles in 9 hours. When they saw someone walking on waters, they thought it was a ghost. Jesus answered "I am". Peter began to do what Jesus did. As long as your eyes are on Jesus, you will walk above the storms. Your supernatural ability comes from God. It is not through your self. We think God wants us to be consciously holy. God wants us to out everything in Christ. You will be ok if you put Jesus between yourself and the circumstances. Peter began to sink when he looked away from Jesus. Peter was too slow to reach to Jesus but Jesus was able to put him while he was sinking.
John 6:21
Verse 21: The boat was immediately at land where they were going. It happened very soon right after the storm. It was like teleport.
When you give something to Jesus, it does not come back the same.
