The Will of the Lord


Matthew 8:2-3 KJV
And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
And Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

What an encouragement it is when the Lord says, "I will." 

Not everyone who has ever been sick has been healed. That was never the point of Christ's healing those He did. The point was that what He wills, He is able to perform.

  • He wills the salvation of all those who will call upon Him for it
  • He wills that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish
  • He wills that those who come to Him be kept by Him, preserved and protected by the sealing work of the Holy Spirit
  • He wills that those who are His be with Him in His Father's house.

What a blessing and comfort to be in the will of the Lord.
