ASK JESUS FOR HEALING WITH AN EXPECTANT FAITH.

ASK JESUS TO HEAL YOU WITH AN EXPECTANT FAITH. 

"Thus says the LORD:

Say to those whose hearts are frightened:

Be strong, fear not!

Here is your God, he comes with vindication; with divine recompense he comes to save you.

Then will the eyes of the blind be opened, the ears of the deaf be cleared;

"then will the lame leap like a stag, then the tongue of the mute will sing.

"Streams will burst forth in the desert, and rivers in the steppe.

The burning sands will become pools, and the thirsty ground, springs of water." (Isaiah 35: 4 - 7).

SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 8TH IN THE 23RD WEEK IN ORDINARY TIME. 

In the first Reading today (Isaiah 35: 4 - 7), we hear some of those great prophecies and divine promises from Isaiah we tend to brush aside. Instead of hearing this word of God with unbelief, why don't we ask the Lord: "When will these things happen?"

Jesus gave an answer to a mystic to a similar question:

"Trust Me with the TIMING of ALL THINGS." Personally, I am deeply satisfied with the answer. 

In the Gospel Reading, we see the fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy:

"And people brought to him a deaf man who had a speech impediment

and begged him to lay his hand on him.

He took him off by himself away from the crowd.

He put his finger into the man’s ears

and, spitting, touched his tongue;

then he looked up to heaven and groaned, and said to him,

“Ephphatha!”— that is, “Be opened!” —

And immediately the man’s ears were opened,

his speech impediment was removed,

and he spoke plainly." (Cf Mark 7: 31 - 37).

In the healing of this man, Jesus performed two miracles. He healed his deafness and restored fully his power of speech. When Jesus heals, He heals everything that needs healing in you. Jesus does not heal your blindness and send you to a cancer specialist who treats you and send you to his specialist buddies. You keep moving from one appointment to another. 

Jesus still heals today. Ask Jesus for healing with an expectant faith. 

In the Book of Revelation, the Spirit declares "The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy." (Cf Revelations 19: 10). What Jesus has done once in His earthly ministry, He continues to do today through the Church. 

"In every priest I would speak and act, delivering souls from the powers of darkness and healing the sick—but most of all, I desire to offer myself in every priest and to assume every priest into My own offering to the Father." (IN SINU JESU, November 29, 2008 After First Vespers of the First Sunday of Advent). 

In September, the Church honors the Sorrowful Heart of Mary. May the Blessed Virgin Mary, Our Lady of Sorrows obtain for us  mercies from her Son Jesus. 

[SEPTEMBER 8TH TODAY IS THE BIRTHDAY OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY. A BIG FEAST. IT FELL THIS YEAR ON A SUNDAY. SUNDAY IS CONSECRATED TO CELEBRATING AND HONORING JESUS CHRIST. THE LORD OF THE SABBATH].
