Grace for your spirit July 9, 2010

Grace for your spirit
And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils Mark 1:34 KJV

The word "divers" is used in the King James Version, as a word for various or different. Jesus and His disciples healed all the various kinds of diseases and spiritual sicknesses they found. I heard an old preacher years ago, referred to these "divers diseases" in a different way. He said when it is time for worship, people "dive" into their weekend activities. When it is time to go to gospel meetings, they "dive" on the sofa to watch TV. When there are needs to be met for the church, they "dive" into their hobbies. "Divers" diseases keep us away from church services, gospel meetings, and meeting the needs of others. "Divers diseases" will always plague the church until we find a deeper commitment to the cause of Christ. Let's' allow Him to heal our "diver's diseases."

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
Philippians 4:23
