A leper got to the Lord Jesus in Matthew 8.2 and said: “Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.” The leper approached Jesus when He was coming down the mountain and worshipped Him. Some things are essential to deal with and touch God`s Heart. He approached Jesus worshipping Him humbly. He didn`t ask for anything, he simply gave Jesus love.

The attitude of charging Jesus will never take us anywhere. Many people complain about, they ask themselves why God let evil come to our lives, but it`s not the right way. At the hardest moment, worship Him to get to God`s Kingdom worshipping. The leper went through hardship, without a doubt, rejected by the society, but never became enough bitter in order to blame God

That leper knew, like ninety percent of human beings, God may do whatever He wants, but doesn`t do because He is so wonderful that He set His desire after man`s desire. That man was a leper for many years. God knew him and wanted to heal him. That man never doubted, never asked Jesus whether the Master could heal him. He stated that if Jesus wanted, He would heal him. Like that leper, many people carry the burden for long time, while God observes and wants to take the burden out, but He can`t break into your life. You have to touch His Heart somehow. I doubt there`s a person who doesn`t get jolt seeing a leper in front of him. The leper should have found out that God could have healed him before. This message shows that no one suffers, become jolt or afflicted due to any problem because God wants. God wants exactly the opposite. When this person comes closer to Jesus and tells Him what he wants, he will be given it. That`s what happened to this leper, who told Jesus what he wanted, which was to be clean. Jesus performed a hand imposition on this leper and determined the cleanness of that leper`s body. The great miracle, the learning, the lesson to us is not the healing itself, it`s the lesson that what we want and have to manifest to God, He wants for our lives ahead of us. You, who want something good for your life, have to be definitely sure, as that leper was, of Jesus Power being enough to heal you. Anything you may need, any deliverance, any miracle, means nothing to God. They are too small. God is bigger than any difficulty and adversity. He is bigger than anything that harms and threatens your life. He is bigger than anything else. What you may not know is that, God wants to help you, but He is waiting for you to manifest your faith, and that`s what the leper didn`t know either. When you manifest your faith the way it has to be done, God`s hand will be on your life, it will go towards you, as it was with the leper, and it will change your history. He is God and does exactly the way you confess. Another problem we have is that, we limit the Power of God. That leper wasn`t healed after months, after weeks, no, he was healed immediately. Jesus already set that everything you may ask for Him faithfully, He will provide you with, but He waits for you to ask, want, and believe in Him He is able to give you. John 15.7 says, “If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.” That leper just found out about it. When he thought about receiving, he had already received. That leper should have seen Jesus far, he heard about Him that`s why he went there slowly. Now, figure out whether anything may pull you down if Jesus wants you to be the winner! That`s what He clarified and wants much more than you do. Match your desire with the desire of God. Because of that, in Isaiah 1 it`s said that, “ If we hear God`s words, we will eat the best from this land.” There`s nothing that may pull you down. Invest in your relationship with God because the more you know about God, the better the quality of your life will be. You will conquer and win. The Bible says that God loves us more than a mother loves her children. A mother never portalts about a baby, who is still breastfed, so does God. God never portalts about any of us.
