What if He was here tonight in a visible Person? Just as sure as He walked on the Sea of Galilee, He’s right here. He promised to be. And what did He do? What’d He say He would do after He raised from the dead? The Bible said He’s the same yesterday, today, and forever. Is that true? Well, if He’s the same, He’ll do the same thing. Now, He didn’t heal no one; very much contrary: He claimed He didn’t heal. He said, “It’s not Me; I only do what the Father shows Me. When the Father shows Me a vision, I go do what He tells Me.” Other words, “I don’t do nothing till He tells Me.” Saint John 5:19 said, “The Son…” After He passed all those crippled people, and blind, and halt and lame, didn’t heal any of them, healed a man with a—laying on a pallet, for Jesus knew he was in this condition. Sure, the Father had showed Him. All these things, it was just that way.
