…for he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; THAT WE MIGHT BE MADE THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD in him. II Cor5:21
There is hardly any other subject so misunderstood in the body of Christ today as the subject of Righteousness. I have been a Christian for a while and in my own opinion the subject of Righteousness seems to be the least popular subject on most of our pulpits.
Of course our preachers do talk about Righteousness in a thousand and one ways but what I’m referring to is that Righteousness which was purchased for us at the expense of the shed blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God.I’m not talking about the Righteousness which is simply the gross total of a man’s goody-goody works. No! I’m talking about that Righteousness which is made available by grace and received through faith. Knowledge or ignorance of this Righteousness WILL AFFECT every area of your Christian life. I recommend an in dept study of Rom3:19–28 for a better understanding of this Righteousness.
Why am I talking about Righteousness? Because of what it entails.Righteousness means TO HAVE RIGHTS WITH GOD. It entails the Right to stand in the presence of God without a sense of shame, guilt or inferiority. It also entails the Right to receive from God by faith whatever he has made available through grace. That includes healing!
So if you do not know that by the shed blood of Jesus Christ God’s Son you have Rights with God, then you’ll keep having problems receiving your healing. Butwhen you know you have Rights with God then all you need to do is EXERCISE YOUR RIGHT! How? By Faith! Open your mouth and proclaim: I receive my healing now in the name of Jesus and don’t wait for your senses to comply, begin to act out your faith and things will change. Hallelujah!

And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond ON THE SABBATH DAY? Luke13:16
Religion and men’s traditions can rob you of your healing if you let them.Religion does nothing other than provide you with excuses why you should not be healed. With religion, something is always wrong. It’s either you’rethe wrong person or it’s the wrong day or you’re seeking your healing the wrong way.
The prostitute that wiped Jesus feet with her hair was the wrong person.The woman healed from her infirmity of eighteen years was healed on the wrong day. Blind Bartimeus who screamed at the top of his voice to get the attention of Jesus who was shielded away from him by the crowd was seeking his healing the wrong way. Nothing is right with religion, everything is wrong with it. If you listen to the voice of religion, you will not be healed!
There are thousands of believers today all over the world who are dying on their sick beds from one infirmity or the other because they accepted one or more of the many ‘religious excuses’ handed over to them why they should not expect to be healed.
Though these ‘excuses’ are many and varied ranging from ‘God no longer heals today’ to ‘God heals who he wants, when he wants,’ the answer to these many excuses can be summarized in one sentence. HEALING IS THE RIGHT OF THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF ABRAHAM AND THAT’S WHO WE ARE! (Gal 3:6-7)
You don’t need to be a special person, have a special qualification or use a special method before you can exercise your Right. A Right can be exercisedanytime, any day and any where. Healing is your Right. Exercise that right TODAY!

| But he answered and said, it is not meet to take THE CHILDREN’S BREAD, and to cast it to dogs. Matt 15:26
The world is full of children and dogs. Some of us are children, all the others are dogs. That’s how God sees things. Imagine preparing a wonderful delicacy for dinner. Your children are up stairs playing with their toys to pacify their hunger a little bit. Then just as soon as you get through cooking, you set the table real nice and then go call all the dogs in the neighborhood to come and have a treat. There are at last 3 issues that will arise.
First, your sanity will be seriously put to questions. Second, your children will go hungry for the night. Third, those dogs would never appreciate your gesture because they cannot value it as much as your kids would.
Now you can see why Jesus said it is not meet (proper or fitting) to take the children’s bread and to cast it to dogs.
When Jesus made this statement, he was referring to healing because he made this statement to a syrophoenician woman who had a sick daughter and wanted Jesus to heal her daughter. Jesus called her a dog because she wasn’t a daughter of Abraham and then said that the bread of healing only belonged to the children. This is the point I want to emphasize here. According to Jesus, if you are a child of Abraham (and you are if you are born again – Gal3:6-7), then healing is your daily bread. It belongs to you!
It is the responsibility of every responsible father to provide daily bread for his children and Jesus said if we asked our Father for bread, he won’t give us a stone instead (Matt 7:9-11). Do you believe the scriptures? Then, if you do, rise up and take your bread today. BE HEALED IN JESUS NAME!

And ought not this woman, BEING A DAUGHTER OF ABRAHAM, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day? Luke13:16
Healing for a child of God is not a privilege, IT IS A RIGHT!Privileges are products of preference but Rights are based on position. The most dangerous men on the face of the earth today are the men who know their rights.
Privileges may be pleaded for but Rights are taken advantages of. You don’t beg for a Right, you exercise a Right. But one very important point is: you cannot exercise a right that you do not know you have. Until you realize that you are a Son and not a Servant, you will keep begging in your father’s house.
Jesus was teaching in the synagogue one day when a woman walked in bent over with a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years. For eighteen years she couldn’t lift herself up. For eighteen years she was a slave of sickness and disease until the day she was told by Jesus that it was HER RIGHT to be healed.
She walked into the synagogue when Christ was teaching and Christ halted his message to make one point clear: ‘Ought not this woman being a daughter of Abraham be loosed from this infirmity?’ In other words, Jesus was saying: ‘If you are a daughter (or son) of Abraham, you have THE RIGHT to be loosed from your infirmity.’
That was a revelation to all that were in the synagogue that day because they didn’t know that before. If that woman had known that earlier at any time within that eighteen year period in which she suffered her infirmity she would have been healed. Why? What is your right is YOURS; it’s not about to be given to you. So when you know it’s your right, you simply TAKE IT. Like that woman, we are sons and daughters of Abraham (Gal3:6-7). It therefore follows that healing is our right. We don’t beg for it, WE TAKE IT.

“He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sin and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.” I Peter 2:24 (NIV)
Your reality is created by your perspective. The position from which you look determines what you see. If you’re looking down from the mountain top, everything looks so small. But if you are looking at things from the ground, everything looks so big.
You many have been diagnosed by medical science as having an incurable disease. What matters is not what the doctor said. What matter is what you see. What do you see?
Do you see yourself as a sorry case marked for death? If you do, you’re looking from the ground. If you will, you may follow me down the Via Dolorosa, up the mount ofGolgotha to the place of the skull where the savior was crucified. Then look down at your sickness from that mountain and you will find out that you are not ‘the sick’ but ‘the healed’.
Jesus bore forty stripes minus one on his back and bled on that mountain to secure your healing. By his wounds, you were healed. Walk into that healing by faith today. It is yours NOW!
