Divine healing is the children’s bread, a fact revealed to a Gentile woman one day by the mouth of our Lord Jesus Christ. That’s right, Jesus said ‘healing is the children’s bread.’ Bread, being a symbol of life-giving sustenance, gives this analogy that Jesus used great weight. There are some modern day Bible teachers who believe that this bread has been turned into stones — that is that Jesus no longer heals today. Now, I believe that most of these men who teach these things, mean well. But, I can personally tell you that it’s not so because Jesus healed me of a condition deemed incurable almost twenty years ago. Healing is still available and it is still as Jesus declared it to be, the children’s bread. When Stanley Frodsham was a young Christian, [you know Stanley wrote a biography on Smith Wigglesworth] and a member of a large Congregational church, he was often troubled with the thought—Why do we not see miracles today as of old? The Lord Jesus went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil. His apostles did the same. Why are we not having a like ministry today? One day in the year 1908 a paper came into his hands. It told of the Spirit’s being poured out in Los Angeles, Calif., just as at Pentecost. Many remarkable healings were described. As he read of this revival there came a strong witness to his spirit that this was of God. Later other papers came from Canada, England, India, South Africa, and different parts of the United States, and his eyes were opened to the fact that God was once more pouring out His Spirit in many places even as at Pentecost, that the Lord was truly with His people and confirming His Word today as He did in the beginning of this church age. This same year, the Lord filled Stanley with the Spirit, making no difference between him and those at the beginning. He was soon awakened to the fact that he was one of a large, world-wide fellowship. There were Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Congregationalists, Episcopalians, Holiness people, Christians from every denomination and from no denomination, who had received a like experience. He noticed that all these Spirit-filled ones made very much of the precious blood of Jesus Christ, and that the cross of Christ had been made very real to all of them through the power of the Holy Ghost. He found that all that he came in contact with believed that the Lord healed today just as of old, and that many of them had had marvelous healings themselves. They were one and all looking eagerly for the soon coming of Christ. Everyone of them honored the Word of God, believing in every part of it, and they were all seeking to be not only hearers but doers of the Word.1 Are you in this company — a Spirit filled, Blood of Jesus partaking, divine healing believing doer of the Word of God? Well, that’s at least part of our focus today as we talk about Why You Are Free Because Healing Is the Children’s Bread all on this week’s Light on Life.
