The word immediately appears 55 times in the Bible. One dictionary defines immediately as, "without interval of time: STRAIGHTWAY."
Through the word/concept immediately, the Bible announces that human life is not bound by fake boundaries of mortality, by distance and delay. Divine Spirit's power to heal is so swift and great that it operates without interval of time.
Jesus healed immediately: When a leper came to him seeking healing, "Jesus put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed." Matt. 8:3.
Jesus' disciples healed immediately: To the man who was born lame, Peter said, "In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk. And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength." Acts 3:6, 7.
Immediately abolished the gap between past and future. Immediately dissolves the illusion that time, space, and matter have power or presence. Immediately says: There is no delay between expectation and fulfillment; God's Christ-power shines through human lives with spiritual power and authority, straightway—now!
