“and behold, a leper came and worshiped him saying, Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”
Matthew 8:2
Q & A:
- Discuss why Christian life should not be built based on experiences, how you feel nor religious tradition. Do you have a stronghold in your mind that God would put sickness on you to teach you a lesson or do you have a feeling of rejection wondering why God would want to heal you for what you have done? (2 Cor 10:3-6)
- Considering that there was no sickness in creation and no pain in heaven as God intended, and God being a good father does not want to give anything bad to us, discuss if you believe God is able and willing to heal you by lifting your burdens off you. (Matt 9:27-28; Matt 8:2; Gen 1:31; Rev 21:4; Matt 7:9-11)
- Discuss how Jesus, being the image of God demonstrated that God is willing to heal anyone who comes to Him as He is moved with compassion seeing the sick with problems. What are the keys for those who are sick to get healed, knowing that Jesus heals with a medical doctor’s hand and a miracle hand of God? (Col 1:15; Luke 4:8; Matt 8:2-3; Matt 9:35-36; Matt 9:21-22)
