Before the foundations of the earth were laid, God knew the end from the beginning. Through the centuries, He spoke through His prophets, declaring what would come to pass. From the garden of Eden to Abraham, from the throne of David to the prophecies of Isaiah, God revealed the coming of the promised Messiah. And then, in the fullness of time, JESUS CHRIST came! The eternal Word, the Son of God, the Creator of heaven and earth, walked among men. The leper was cleansed, the paralyzed were healed, demons were cast out, and sickness fled at His command. These were not merely miracles to behold; they were the fulfillment of what God had spoken centuries before! In AUTHORITY OVER DISEASE — PART II, from Matthew 8:14–17, we examine the prophetic Scriptures and witness the sovereign authority of JESUS CHRIST. But when all the evidence has been presented, two questions remain. DO YOU SEE CHRIST? Do you recognize Him for who He truly is? And DO YOU SEE YOURSELF? Do you recognize your own desperate need for the Savior? The question is no longer simply what Christ has done. The question is whether you truly see Him—and whether you see yourself in the light of His glory.
