Wisdom For The Day Devotional 26 March 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – It Is Already Done
TOPIC: It Is Already Done (TREM Devotional 26 March 2024)
“And when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity” Luke 13:12 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
During the earthly ministry of Jesus, one day, He went into the temple and saw a woman who had been bowed over for 18 years. In other words, she was coming to church, yet nothing, no healing, and no deliverance because no one told her that she could be straightened. Religion says you can’t help yourself and this is how you must remain. Child of God, yes you cannot help yourself, but that does not mean you must remain like that. Jesus has paid the price for you; you no longer have to remain in the same situation.
This woman was bound for eighteen years! And here comes Jesus, who knows how to give dignity to man. He said to her, Woman, thou art loosed from thy infirmity. He didn’t say, “you will be loosed”. In other words, woman, by covenant, you are loosed! But because you don’t know it, that is why you are still bowing.
You will be shocked to know how many people in the church are still bowed down by poverty, hardship, disappointment, fear, intimidation, sickness, and disease. Challenges in their lives bow over them because they don’t know that those things were already paid for by Christ.
Today, I have come to declare that you are loosed from your infirmity. No matter what it is that has bowed you down, you are loosed. Just like the devil cannot stand before Christ, that mountain cannot stand before you. Who art thou o mountain that stands before Zerubbabel? It shall come down by the shout of grace, grace! Not by might, not by power but by the Spirit of the Lord.
Your breakthrough is already done. It is already settled. The woman was not loosed before then because she did not know. Ignorance is bad. God’s people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Choose not to be ignorant of what Jesus has done for you.
