Good afternoon and welcome to Healing Stream Waters Daily Dose. I'm glad to be here. I hope you are too that we are still on the top side of the ground, a privilege and an honor just to give God all that is due Him. I'm going to be reading today, sharing from the Word of God in Romans 10, 14 through 15 in the King James Version, and it goes like this. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in him in whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach except they be sent? As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace and bring glad tidings of good things. And the subject that I want to leave with you today is where are the sick ones? First, the Bible tells us that how can you call on God or summon somebody else to help you if you don't believe in them. If you haven't heard about God, even if you're looking for a doctor or a contractor or whatever it is, you have to hear about somebody before you can believe on them. Whether it's the word of somebody else, and then you have your own experience and you believe on them, leaving them. That's why you call them back a second time. Um before you call. Whatever your profession is, you have to have the know-how, you have to have information. There are things that go along with your title, and people will go to you or believe in you once they heard about you or uh they rely on you, and it's the same way with the gospel of Jesus Christ. How can you hear without a preacher? But how can they preach except they be sent? And so we have all down through the line of time when there was trouble, where there was a specific case, and people needed answers, they sent and summons someone who can help them. But how can you preach, announce, proclaim, or stand ten toes down in your profession if you wasn't sent with the goods? For example, the woman that uh put up made a room for Elijah and uh made everything possible for him while he traveled through where she was at. And in response to her good deeds, he asked the question, well, what do she have in need of? And his servant told him she didn't have a child, so he told her this time next year you're going to have a child, and she was like, Don't play with me, because I I haven't I've been banned. Um actually I could do with it or without it, but he told her she was going to have a child, but after she had a child had the child, one day the child took sick. He was out in the field with his father, and his father said, Take the son back to the mother, and when he got back there, he died. And so the woman saw nothing else but I'm going to the prophet because he's the one that told me about the child. She called the servant, she saddled a horse, and she said, Drive forward and select not the riding for me. And when she got to him, the question was asked, Is it well? And she said, Yes, it's well. I'm coming to see you, and it's going to be well. Elijah saw her coming and he sent the servant, but she didn't want the servant because the servant was not the one that told her about having a child. She got Elijah and they went back to the house. He was dead. But Elijah stretched himself himself out over the boy, and the life of the boy came back in him. He was sent for, he was summoned, but he didn't come empty-handed. He did not make her hope for shame. The Bible says how beautiful are the feet of them that priest good tidings and bring good news. Where are the sent ones? Another occasion when the creditors was coming to the widow's house, she went to the prophet. He asked her, What's in your house? And then he gave her instruction. Go borrow a few barrels. No, don't don't borrow a few. Go borrow from the neighbor some barrels. Borrow as many as you can get, and then come inside your house, shut the door, and begin to pour. And she poured and she poured and she poured until there was no more barrels left to pour anything into it. And she went back to the prophet. He told her, Go sell the oil, pay your debt, and live off the rest. That's good news. That's good news. He met her need. Where are the sent ones? In the New Testament. When Paul was knocked down, he said, was told him, go down to a street call street. And there's a man down there named Ananias. He was a devout Christian. He was nobody with a big title, but he had what Paul needed. And he told Paul. Well, the Lord told Ananias, he's a chosen one. He's a chosen vessel. He went down to Ananias' house and he received his sight back. Where are the sent ones? Peter up on the rooftop in the trench. But Cornelius was praying. And the spirit told Cornelius, go send someone to Joffa and ask for a man named Peter. But then God told then the spirit told Peter, show him uh uh in a trance, a sheep with all these unclean animals. He said, Rise, kill, and eat Peter. Peter said not so. He said it three times, but Peter, it was an example of premonition of what was coming because Peter was a Jew, but Canelians was of the Italian band, and we know that the Jews were didn't have too much dealings with anybody, and we knew that the gospel in that day was limited to the Jews, but on the day of Pentecost, God opened it up to everybody, but still, Peter had to know this gospel, Peter, that you're second claim on. Jew, gentile, bond, or free, it doesn't matter. The gospel, the good news is for every soul that will believe on Jesus and take him at his word. So he went to Cornelius' house. Cornelius had his family there, and Peter preached the gospel, and the Holy Ghost fell. Send for Peter. Where are the sent ones? Where are the sent ones? How can you hear without a proclaimer, an announcer? How can you hear without it? How beautiful are the feet of them that preach good tidings. You have the gospel is good news, y'all. To the Jew, to the Dreek, to the Greek, whether you're rich, whether you're poor, it doesn't matter your status, your household, composition, none of that matter. As many as receive to them, he gave power to become the sons of God. Where are the sent ones? After the 70 had walked away from him, are you gonna leave to? And the reply was, Where are you? Where are we gonna go? You have the words of life in you. Jesus was sent to save them that was lost. He came not into the world to condemn it, but that the world through him might be saved. He didn't come to do away with your law, he just came to fulfill it. Where are the sent ones? This is healing stream waters. Maybe God has sent you, maybe he has called you to do a specific thing for a specific, a specific people. Who is your audience? Who ears are attached to your voice? Please, ma'am, please, sir. If God has assigned your heart and your hand to do something, get up and do what God has for you. Because on the opposite side side of your mouth is deliverance for somebody. The good news to let them know that Jesus came to save them which were lost. We have salvation today, and it's only in the name of Jesus. That's good news. We have healing, we have deliverance, we have freedom, we have peace, we have understanding. All in the name of Jesus. I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. This is your daily doses. God loves you and I love you, and there's nothing that you can do about it.
