Role of Care, Prayer, Medicine in our Physical Healing

During this Covid 19 and Monkeypox pandemics Prophet Jeremiah asked three questions on behalf of all of us. Why has my sickness and wound not healed while many others are healed? Why has God cheated me and drained my brook (prosperity)? Why are many people standing against me? (Jer.15:18-21). Not only has he asked these questions but has also given the answer, “Repent and come back to the Lord. He will restore you to what you ought to be in this world.” All our sickness will be healed, all our problems will be solved and all our prayers will be answered in God’s time and manner provided that you and I have intimacy with Jesus (2Cor.11:1-2), fellowship with Holy Spirit (2 Cor.13:14), be the doer of the word of God (Mt. 7:24-25) besides take care (Mk.5:43), apply available medicine and prayers (Sir.38:1-14). Let me elaborate these questions and their answers.

The Temptation of Jesus - Being Revisited During the Lent 2021

Lent begins with a reflection on the forty days of fasting of our Lord Jesus Christ in the Judean desert (Mt. 4:1-11). At the end of his forty days of fasting, the devil approached Jesus to test and tempt him. Devil tested him to try and have dominion over the new humanity which was to be established by the second Adam i.e., Jesus. Where the first Adam failed, Jesus got victory. The first Adam failed in his temptation and brought dominion of the devil upon the whole of humanity. There on wards the whole humanity was under the captivity of the devil. Jesus has come to this world to undo what the devil has done in humanity (1Jn. 3:8). But the devil tried his level best to bring the second humanity also under his dominion. The temptation started with a simple issue of just turning stones into bread and culminated with a complicated issue of worship and adoration. The first Adam was tempted with a simple issue of eating the forbidden fruit and culminated with a complicated issue of slavery and sufferings. God created stone but not for eating. That is not the plan of God for a stone. But Satan asked Jesus to disobey God’s plan and stand against the plan of God and also to obey him by eating that stone-bread and redeem the world. The second humanity also would have been under the dominion of the devil if Jesus would have eaten that stone-bread.
