There was no room to walk into Jesus\u2019 house. They could have said \u2018<i>perhaps it is not yet God\u2019s time for God to heal our friend. We will wait for when Jesus is doing another healing service and come early so that we can be on the front row\u2019<\/i>. They did not do that<span style=\"text-decoration: line-through;\">.<\/span> Instead, as the door was not accessible <!--more-->to them, they decided to break the roof just to gain access. So they tore Jesus\u2019 roof open and they lowered their friend. Jesus did not get angry or ask them to repair the roof. The Bible says Jesus saw their faith! Faith is visible. Jesus saw their faith! If there is one person I love passionately, it is Jesus. He always baffles me. When everyone is preaching standing up, Jesus preaches sitting down. When everybody is taking a boat, Jesus is walking on water. Isn\u2019t He amazing? And I saw<b>,<\/b> looking at the life of Jesus<b>,<\/b> that everyone that came to Jesus for healing, He healed. Jesus never said \u2018O Jairus, it is not yet time to heal your daughter\u2019. Jesus never said the time is not right. I do not understand why people that really believe God do not get healed. Don\u2019t get me wrong, there are still some things that when we get to heaven God will tell us. But let us hold firmly to the one He has revealed in the Bible. There is no time Jesus said the time is not yet <b>come<\/b>. Even a woman that did not ask His permission said \u2018<i>if only I can touch the herm of his garment I will be made whole<\/i>\u2019. And when she touched it, she was made whole. I am here to announce to you today that heaven has not postponed your healing. Heaven has not postponed the delivery of that answer. Jesus will always say \u2018<i>only if you can believe\u2019<\/i>. All things are possible to them that believe. Jesus never said all things are possible if it is time. Jesus always says <i>according to your faith, be it unto you<\/i>. So I say to you today, get oil and anoint yourself even as your faith goes ahead of you and watch as Jesus turns things around in your favour.\u00a0 Even in intercession, you must first believe that He is and He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Even Mary believed, though He said it was not yet time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Prayer <\/b>[song]: \u2018God is able to do just what He said He would do.
