BLOSSOMING IN THE BODY – Part I


TEXT: MATTHEW 8:1-17

INTRODUCTION:

 Last week, we discussed the scope of our blossoming. For the next couple of weeks, we shall begin to examine in detail each of the subhead identified last week. 

We will be discussing the first part of how we can blossom in our bodies. It is God’s will that we prosper in health. Anyone sick in the body is limited to the extent he/she can fulfill God’s purpose for his/her life.

The indwelling of the Holy Spirit in us ensures that we live in divine health by the quickening of our mortal body even as we please Him by faith in His word and leading.
