The beauty of this event, the Good News of what happened is this: Because of his love, Jesus is still with us today. He desires to be close to us and to work through us – just as He did the early disciples! Additionally, Jesus’ desired intimacy with us and his healing gifts can be impeded in an unexpected way. His gifts can be impeded by unforgiveness we may harbor in our hearts. However, recognizing the 5 tactics of the devil, is one step we can take toward reaching the desire of our hearts, to be close to Jesus.
