#36: Today’s Prayer: Heal me O God from Anxiety attacks (1)

Bible Reading:

“Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:6‭-‬7 NASB1995)

Introduction:

Many of us suffer from anxiety attacks.  Not because we lack faith but because we are masters at overthinking.

Anxiety is a state of uneasiness  and distress that plague individuals, about future certainties.  

Sources of Anxiety:

People  experience anxiety as stress builds up until it can noonger be suppressed.

With the recent world health crises, an increasing number of people are disabled. And with the world economic downturns, rising costs of living, increasing competition at the marketplace and scarcity of jobs puts pressure on people. 

The modernistic materialistic pursuits are also pushing people to the limit. The lust for bigger homes,  and better technologies, faster mobility, etc are fertile grounds for anxiety build up.

The social ambiguity of roles between genders is creating more confusion in the minds of people.  Relationships are getting more stressful, marriages are falling apart, more one-parent families are springing up, with its relative stress that not many can comprehend.

Procrastination is a major cause of anxiety. People tend to put off unpleasant tasks and focus on the more enjoyable ones.

However, the tasks they put off, looms ever larger in their minds disturbingly. They get  anxious about the possibility of ever completing it.

You can Overcome Anxiety Attacks:

1- Develop  an attitude of Thanksgiving:

Remember that in our previous discussions on Healings, we stated that you must learn how to confront all life’s issues first from a spiritual perspective. 

a.- Shun the negative supernatural:

Because the spiritual controls the physical. you need to tune in to the Spirit realm in order to resolve your anxiety issues.

The spirit realm consists of  two realms- the negative where satan and his forces of evil control; and the positive supernatural where Jesus Christ is the King.

When negative thoughts fill your mind, cast it down and make your thoughts subject to the Word of faith that you know.

b.- Pray to God;

Prayer is the acceptable way of communicating with God who is Spirit. And in approaching God, you come with a gratitude attitude. You are commanded to “Rejoice in the Lord always” (Philippians 4:4 NASB1995)

When you feel anxiety coming on, unbottle your emotions to God with absolute candor and raw emotion.

 Do not hold back from ventilating to God at the place of prayers. 

#PrayerPoints4Today (10 mins)

As you go into a prayer session, have something handy to put down whatever drops into your spirit. So that you can review your notes after prayers .

a-. Put into practice what we just discussed today worship God in songs or pray in tongues but with a gratitude attitude. REFRAIN FROM MURMURING.

b-. Talk to God about the issues that are making you anxious. Open up your deepest thoughts to God and it will help you put things in perspective. And you will receive clarity on what to do next.

You have need of Patience (1)

Beloved, we are at a phase where things are changing so fast, it’s a bit scary and confusing, because God seems to be so slow in comparison.

It takes like forever for healings, miracles, etc., to happen in this fast moving world

Technology is so advanced that patience seems to be the least virtue we should be discussing.

We just want a button to press that will cure all diseases, restore marriages, make that prodigal child return home, settle the credits,etc.

The list is unending of the things we wish technology can solve at the push of a button.

Despite the ongoing traffic on the fast lane of life, “we are to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit the promises”. (See Hebrews 6:12)

So you See Beloved, despite technology advances, Patience is still trending among Christian circles, and also generally in the world.
What then is Patience?
Patience is forbearance under suffering, and endurance in the face of adversity.

In Hebrews 6:12 and James 5:10, the word translated patience is from the Greek makrothymia, which relates to long-suffering:

a.- “through faith and longsuffering we inherit the kingdom” (Hebrews 6:12, kJV)
b.- “…an example of suffering affliction, and of patience. Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy.” (James 5:10‭-‬11 KJV)

The patience of Job is legendary! Can I ever be that patient?

With just a few delays in getting results for my prayers 🙏🏽 , I am all over God in the throne room- banging, screaming, blasting in tongues, casting out non existent demons, calling out satan for interference.

But for the Patience of God….

Do you know that long-suffering (Gr. Makrothymia) is an aspect of God’s nature?

The Bible says:
“…the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering…
God leadeth thee to repentance…” (Romans 2:4 KJV)

Again in 2 Peter 3:9 it’s written that:
“The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” (2 Peter 3:9 KJV)

But for the Patience of God towards us, we would self-destruct by most of the scrapes we were involved in.

Look back into your life. Goodness! Some of us were horrible teenagers and youths!

If not that God is patient – longsuffering towards us, many of us would never have made adulthood, have kids, kept our jobs etc.

We would have died in our sins!

But God.

His patience deferred judgment, protected us and helped us take the right part in life.

Do you also know that the patience of God is also in the Born Again?

According to the Bible, we are “partakers of the Divine nature” (2 Peter 1:4)

The ability to suffer-long is already programmed into you by the Holy Spirit when you commit to Jesus Christ.

However, it is your responsibility to develop it. Patience is only developed through suffering.

Suffer- why ?

To suffer means to undergo pain, loss, damage, etc.

Have you experienced the pain of betrayal, the loss of a loved one, damage to your reputation or property etc.? You survived it. Right?

Although You were broken by what happened to you, you healed and learned some lessons you won’t forget in a hurry!

Through all those past painful experiences, your pain threshold increased.

You are born of God!
You are victorious.

Even through that suffering, you cried like a baby, but not any more!

You are now the coach for those traversing that road. You were there and know all the curves, bends and potholes.
Now, you can point the way out to others! You are now more of a blessing to others because of what you suffered!

Hallelujah!
The ability to convert pain to gain has been developed in you through what you suffered.

PrayerPoints4Today:

1.- Just spend some time to thank God for His patient endurance towards you.

2.- Thank God for those bitter experiences which you thought were the end of you, But which surprisingly, God has used as the push you need into enduring joy.

3.- Thank God for everyone who betrayed or cheated you, denied you your rights etc. They needed to leave for you to go forward. They are not part of your future.

4.- Speak into your life. Thank God for the grace to enjoy the manifesting promises.

#35: Today’s Prayer: Heal my Body Miraculously O God .

Bible Reading:

“Then they cried unto the LORD in their trouble, And he delivered them out of their distresses. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, And brake their bands in sunder.” (Psalm 107:6‭, ‬14 KJV)

Introduction:

Throughout the ages, God always responded to the heart cries of His people.

In recent articles, We discussed issues relating  to sin, sicknesses, sufferings and satan.

We also discussed how God, who is so rich in mercy, intervened in world affairs to deliver Humanity from SIN and consequences.

Sin placed humans under satan’s jurisdiction,  and consequently sickness, sufferings, shame, death etc., became Humanity’s ordeal.

Only through a relationship with God through a daily faith-walk with Jesus Christ, who is “the Way, the Truth, and  the Life”, can Humans be saved from satan, sin, sickness, sufferings, and death. (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).

Whatever the issues at stake, I challenge you today, to call out to God for healings in your body and in your mind. 

#PrayerPoints4Today (10 mins)

1.-  Worship in Songs or pray in tongues until you experience a lifting in your spirit. 

2.- Present your peculiar health challenges to God without owning it

a.-  Affirm that God has heard your heart cries and His Word has gained ascendancy in your life and produced results of what it talks about.

b.- Declare that in accordance with tge Word if Gid, you have been brought out of darkness and the shadow of death and now walk the pathways of divine health and deathlessness.

3.- Present your strong biblical arguement about why the condition should no longer be upon you. ( reference the Finished Work of Christ on the Cross) 

4.- Call out your diagnoses, the symptoms and whatever else is affecting your lifestyle and relationships, and command all the evil spirits causing those things to leave your realm /world/ relationships etc, and to go at once with all their relatives, to the feet of Jesus Christ ♥️. 

5.- Affirm that Jesus Christ has manifested and has carried away your sicknesses and diseases and has equally destroyed all the works of the devil.

6. Declare that you are fearless, ageless, deathless, and your mind is healed and your Body is vitalized, uninfectable and you are completely healed.

7. Speak to the part of your body that you had issues with and tell it ” you are loosed from the infirmity etc.

8. Declare that you have received miraculous healings and the condition vanishes and cannot return , for you are sealed by the Holy Spirit.

9. Worship God in songs. Thank God that it is well with your spirit, Soul and Body. Pray in tongues if you are gifted. 

I stand in agreement with you and affirm that the power of God to heal is upon you and your healings are perfected in the matchless name of Jesus Christ.

The benefits of meditating on God’s Word

‘‘I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.’’ Psalm 77:12 NIV

What does the word meditate mean? ‘To engage in contemplation or reflection or to focus one’s thoughts on.’ David said, ‘I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds.’

Question: until you meditate on God’s Word, what can you say that will make any real difference? All you will be doing is sharing your opinion, which is just one of many. You will not be able to speak convincingly or make any real difference in the life of the person to whom you are speaking. It’s God’s Word that changes people’s lives, not yours!

Here are ten benefits of meditating on God’s Word:

1) It cultivates within you a love for God and His Word.

2) It gives you new insights and spiritual understanding.

3) It’s a source of reassurance and strength.

4) It empowers you to be a genuine witness for Jesus Christ.

5) It renews your mind.

6) It protects you from sin.

7) It restores your soul and your emotions.

8) It enables you to trust in the Lord with all your heart.

9) It causes your spirit to come alive.

10) It assists you in understanding God, others, and yourself.

There is great power in God’s Word, and Bible meditation gives you access to that power. ‘Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God.

The best invitation we ever received! We were also given absolutely terrific promises to pass on to you – your tickets to participation in the life of God’ (2 Peter 1:3-4 MSG).

#34: Today’s Prayer: Prove my healings O God 5

This is the last in this series.

6. God’s Cure in Nature: Herbs and Spices.

“Behold, I have given you every seed-bearing plant on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit contains seed. They will be yours for food” (Genesis 1:11; 29)

We have been discussing issues relating to why some people get healed instantly and  others go through the healing process.

Today, we shall briefly discuss  the place of herbs, spices, surgical interventions and other conventional healings in the overall Divine healing process. 

It is important to understand that God is the Healer of Humanity for HE is the Creator.

Therefore, even if your issues are beyond the sciences, It is not beyond the Omniscient God.

It is God’s prerogative to either heal you instantly or heal you progressively.

Either way, understand that God is Sovereign and knows what is best for you.

Being OMNISCIENT, He knew that Humans would violate health laws.  So He put cures in nature. Over the centuries, the health benefits of herbs and Spices cannot be over emphasized.

It is important to eat a healthy diet. For there are so many illnesses, disorders and degenerative diseases that can be overcome by the right nutrition. 

There are large numbers of plants and herbs that when consumed,  facilitates the healing process. 

The properties in these natural foods  work to reduce inflammation, boost the immune system, can even prevent or fight cancer, and also  improve the health of the heart.

An example of one such plant is Aloe Vera.  

Aloe vera is said to contain vitamins and minerals that are needed for the proper function of all body systems. It also  has enzymes, laxative compounds, anti-inflammatory fatty acids and wound-healing hormones.

In addition to appropriation of the Finished Work on the Cross, it is extremely important to eat right and live right.

Faith without works is dead.

It is an active faith for you to Believe that you have been healed, and to make dietary adjustments to prove your healings. 

You can not continue to gorge yourself with unhealthy stuff and be lamenting that sickness is ravaging your body. 

Even if you eat right and still have an unbelieving evil heart- full of unforgiveness, bitterness, resentment etc : your body might be healthy but the unhealthy state of your mind will still incapacitate you. 

And even if your mind and body is healthy and your spirit is sick, you will still be satan’s victim. 

Hence the question,

What shall it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his life in hell fire.(Mark 8:36)

The ideal is for your Spirit, Soul and Body to be preserved blameless till the coming again of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (I Thess. 5:23)

So, if you are now ready for your Spirit, Soul and body to prosper and be healthy say this prayer-

Prayer

Father God, I acknowledge that Jesus Christ paid the ultimate price for my sins.

His death took away the penalty for sins, and also carried away my sicknesses. I affirm that I am delivered from the domain of darkness and set free to have life in all its fullness. 

Thank you Father that the resurrection of Jesus Christ has made immortality possible for me and His ascension has opened up a new and living way into Your eternal presence.

I affirm that the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death, in Jesus’ mighty name. 

7. Others –  

such as Surgical interventions, medical sciences are  also avenues that God can choose to use to process your healings.

What is important about all these other avenues is for you to understand that they are channels to your healings and are not  the Healer themselves – they practice healing or medicine. 

In conclusion, With so many natural remedies at your disposal, the need for prescription medications should go down considerably.

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior, April 27th, 2023. 

#33: Today’s Prayer: Prove my healings O God 4

5. Fasting and Prayers:

If you remember how Humanity in Adam fell from grace, you will understand that satan is Humanity’s number one enemy. 

He is an unrelenting foe who won’t give up on the prey. (1 Peter 5:8)

According to John 10:10, satan’s mission is to steal-happiness, kill-joy and destroy-lives. And he plays by no gentleman code.

He wants you bound by infirmity. in order to incapacitate you. 

 You must learn to confront all sicknesses and diseases from a spiritual perspective first. 

Because, even though Jesus Christ already carried sins and sicknesses away, satan plays on the ignorance of people. 

And thus, he uses his forces of evils to hold people strongly through the sicknesses and diseases he lays on them.

So, whether the sickness is the result of imbalances, genetic disorders etc., Just remember that God created Humanity as very good ( Genesis 1&2) 

Corruption entered into the Human descent through sin. And sin is genetic. (Genesis 3)

All genetic disorders etc., started in the Human descent after Adam fell away from God’s life-sustaining Source. 

And Humanity became subservient to satan and his death-causing  life.

Although Sin is the primary cause of sickness, demon-activity is one of the secondary causes of sicknesses and diseases. 

Once you give the devil a foothold, he turns it into a stronghold: he holds his victims strongly.  

That notwithstanding, ‘whatsoever is born of God is victorious over the world, and the victory that overcomes the world is your faith’ (See 1 John 4:4, 5:4)

No matter how little your faith is, if you put it to work, you will still achieve the desired result. (Mark 11:23)

However, Unbelief will reinforce the demonic hordes empowering the sicknesses and diseases, so it degenerates quickly. 

Unbelief, as explained yesterday, originates from an evil heart, and gives the forces of evil the legal ground to hold you strongly.

It follows also that if your  heart is not right (If you are accommodating anger, unforgiveness, bitterness, resentment and related evils in your mind),  you are permitting the forces of evils to hold you strongly. 

In order to break satan’s hold over your Body and Soul, you’ll need to have a Reborn Spirit.- You must be born again. (John 3:3)

 Or, if you are already Reborn or Regenerated, you need to do the following:

a.- recommit your life to God, 

b.- renounce carnality and start up very committedly in observing 

c. The Christian Discipline of Prayer, Fasting, Personal Bible Study, Fellowship with the Saints and Readily share your Testimony In order to point others to the Good News of Salvation. 

Intensity of prayer and living the Higher life are your additional weaponry for overcoming the forces of evil and cutting off the life sources of    sicknesses and diseases attacking your Body or Soul.

So, no matter the diagnoses the solution begins with your appropriation of what Jesus Christ accomplished for Humanity. 

#PrayerPoints4Today (10 mins)

1.- Thank God for where you are at and for the manifesting healings in your Soul and Body.

2.- Affirm that the power of evil over your life and bloodline is cut-off. 

3.- Forgive everyone: 

a.-  Let go and forgive everyone. When you forgive others, you release your healings. But when you are unforgiving, you are culpable and demons will make you infirm. (Matthew 6:12, 14-15, 18:21-35)

The state of your mind is reflected in the states of your Body- as in psycho-somatic disorders.

b.- Renounce the evil heart.  

c.- Acknowledge any evils that you are accommodating in your mind.(1 John 1:7-9)

4. Command all the forces of evil that were holding you strongly to lose their holds and go to the feet of Jesus Christ with all their evil relatives.

5. Pronounce yourself healed of…… whatever the diagnoses. 

And keep at it till your healing manifests.

6. If you are on meds, don’t stop without personal conviction.  

Some people gradually stop pain meds when they feel they have no need for it. 

Some people stop meds and keep pronouncing their healings until it manifests. 

Grow in grace at your own pace. Work out your own salvation with the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

Just know WHOM  you have BELIEVED and the report that you believe. 

Tomorrow we shall conclude this Teaching  that explains  what you can do to facilitate the manifestations of your healings – whether the healing is divine, medical or surgical. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly,  TheSpiritualWarrior, April 26th 2023

#32: Today’s Prayer: Prove my healings O God 3

 Continuation:

4. Unbelief.

Unbelief is not doubt.  

Previously, we showed scripturally how doubters were reassured and restored. 

Unbelief is also not the opposite of faithlessness. Unbelief is produced from an evil heart!

The Bible says that many Believers depart from God through an evil heart of unbelief (Hebrews 3:12) 

 The Bible describes them as –

“holding to a form of [outward] godliness (religion), although they have denied its power [for their conduct nullifies their claim of faith]. Avoid such people and keep far away from them.” (2 Timothy 3:5 AMP)

During the last world health crises, it became very glaring that so many who professed to be Christians were just having a form  of Godliness. Their conduct nullified their claim of faith.

Many are now seriously ill, many died already, while leaving many distraught and angry at God for not healing them.

God is not to blame.

Healing is a DONE DEAL just as forgiveness is too!

Faith plays a major role in linking you up with God’s blessings and miracles. 

God’s power to heal is ever-present: (Luke 5:17) Faith causes it to flow!

*- Look at the case of the woman who had the hemorrhage. ( Mark 5:25-34, Luke 8:43-48,)

She settled her healing in her mind. She had radical faith. And against all odds grabbed the opportunity to exercise her faith. Why? Because she BELIEVED IN THE LORD JESUS CHRIST and the power present to heal flowed out to her  and the bleeding stopped!

 If you believe,  you shall see (John 11:40)  

*- Unbelief short-circuits the power flowing from God. 

The Bible records that Jesus Christ ‘did not perform many miracles in his hometown because of their unbelief.’ (Mark 13:58). 

Unbelief reinforces demons:

In the Gospels we have the story of a lad that Jesus healed. Mark referred to it as a deaf and dumb spirit while Mathew called it the spirit of epilepsy.

Previously, the disciples could not heal him and the parents became more distraught. (See Matthew 17:14-21; Mark 9:14-29)

When the disciples wanted to know why the evil spirit resisted them, Jesus said to them, 

“Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you…” (Matthew 17:20‭-‬21 KJV)

Your Part/ #PrayerPoints4Today (10 mins)
1.- Deal with the evils in your heart. 

a.- Ask God to conduct a search of your heart to expose those hidden evils so that you can repent of them. Apply the principle of Heart-Search found in Psalm 139:23-24.

b.-  Confess your sins to God: Apply the grace principle of 1 John 1:9 

“For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, 22 adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly.” ( Mark 7:21-22)

2.- Confess your faith or Belief in God (2 Corinthians 4:13, Romans 10:8-10) 

a.- Make declarations of your faith in God.

3.- Ask God to help your unbelief (Mark 9:24)

a.- Command the spirits of unbelief, evil thoughts, religion, and their relatives to leave you and go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ. 

4.- Like the woman with the hemorrhaging,  accept your healing in your heart- internalize your healings and let faith in God’s power to save, heal, deliver, and restore, well-up within you. 

a – Believe that God is Healer and HIS power to heal is ever-present,  and He has healed you

5.- Refuse to accept or own  the diagnoses. Instead, accept in your heart that since Christ Jesus has carried away your sins and sicknesses, you no longer have them. You are free.

6.- Affirm that through this revelation knowledge, you have been delivered from the forces of evils executing sicknesses- call out the diagnoses.

7. Thank God for the manifesting healings, and declare that your Body is God’s temple and there is no accommodation for sicknesses,  diseases or related evils.

8.- Worship in songs and pray in tongues. 

Don’t miss tomorrow’s article.

#31: Today’s Prayer- Prove my healings O God 2.

Continuing from yesterday to explain some reasons why healings may not manifest instantly.

2. Demon Activity:

Luke the physician wrote about a woman who “had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up.”

However, after Jesus spoke directly to her condition, she healed.( Luke 13:10-17)

If you study the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, you will observe that  HE heals by either casting out the evil spirit or by declaring the person forgiven. (See Luke 7:48)

In earlier articles we explained that Sin is the primary cause of sickness. And since sin is humanity’s genetic legacy, it opened up humanity to genetic disorders.

We also pointed out that since  Adam disobeyed God and obeyed satan the devil, that act placed Humans under satan and the evil spirits. 

So, among the secondary causes of sicknesses and diseases are satan’s forces of evils, and the unrepentant heart.

3.- Need to Repent and stop sinfulness 

Forgiveness of sins releases spiritual healings thus, making physical healings possible.

However, God requires a change of heart to reflect in a change in action.

James 5:14-16, points that sinfulness could hinder the process of healing or the manifestation of healings. Furthermore, it is good to know that confession of sins will neutralize both satan and the sickness.

As much as God desires that we enjoy good health with prosperity, those who cover their sins and continue in them hinder their own good health.

God sees your heart. He understands that instant healing will jeopardize your future, so He allows you more grace, so you can  grow in the Doctrines of Christ.

I believe that it is an act of God’s infinite mercy not to heal some people instantly.  Because, they would continue to perpetuate the evils that feed the diseases and the return of the disease would become more destructive. (Read Matthew 12:43-45)

Your part/ #PrayerPoints4Today  (10mins)

a.- Repent: Apply the principles of Proverbs 28:13, 1 John 1:9. 

b.- Stop all those sinful activities or thoughts that feed the diseases and enable the demonic hordes to continue to torment you. 

b.-  In addition to holding fast to the Word of God that has released health and healings to you, you should also speak to your body or mind- whichever is afflicted. Just as Jesus Christ spoke directly to the woman- ” Woman, thou art loosed” (Luke 13:12)

c.- Pronounce yourself loosed from that infirmity.  (Remember that life and death is in your mouth. Speak life that you may live.)

d.- You can also enforce the victory of the Cross- command the evil spirit to leave your body at once and go to the feet of Jesus Christ. (Luke 10:19, Philippians 2:9-11)

*-  In dealing with the evil spirits, address them by the name of your diagnoses, presenting conditions or symptoms- follow the example of Jesus Christ- command them to leave!

e. -And if you meet further resistance,  then its time to seek special ministry from those who God specifically designed/equipped with the appropriate authority to deal with the satanic-  They  are God’s Gift to the Body of Christ (Read Ephesians 4)

We will continue tomorrow to explore other reasons. You are healed is not a Christian hype. It is the Truth. Do the needful. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly,  TheSpiritualWarrior. April 24th, 2023

#30: Today’s Prayer: Prove my healings O God 1.

Bible Reading:

 “Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.” (Jeremiah 17:14 KJV)

Introduction:

People of God, it is not a sin to ask God for confirmation of what He says.

Back in the Old Testament Gideon asked God for confirmation in order to proceed on the assignment. (Judges 6:36-40)

And in the New Testament, Thomas also asked for proof of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. (John 20:24-29)

In both cases, God obliged them, helped their unbelief and they faithfully accomplished their given assignments.

So, if you are among the many  who received the Word of faith for your healings, and are still suffering the symptoms, be rest  assured  that you ARE not exempt from the finished WORK OF CHRIST on the Cross.

And you have not sinned in asking that God prove your healings too.

Some reasons why your healings may not have manifested yet.

1- Healing as a process:

Although most healings by Jesus Christ were instantaneous, the Bible points to gradual healings as well. 

a- The Bible says in Jeremiah 33:6, “Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them and reveal to them abundance of prosperity and security”

b. And James 5:15 says, “the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well.”

c. Also in Mark 8:22-25, the blind man’s healing was gradual. Christ Jesus to touched him again. 

So, if you have received the Word of God and your healings were not instantaneous, do not throw away your strong confidence in God.

Your spiritual healing has occurred and your physical healing is manifesting  gradually.

Your Part/ #PrayerPoints4Today; (15 mins)

a.- Refuse to accept the status quo of that sickness, or that it is not God’s will to heal you. Keep in mind that Jesus Christ healed all who came to Him and he has paid the price for Sin. 

b.- Therefore, Keep up expecting to be fully healed and thank God for forgiveness of sins and cleansing from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9)

c.- Being confident that God who started this good work in you, will bring it to completion (Philippians 1:6), Thank God that your healings are perfected both spiritually and physically, and the yokes are destroyed already.

d.- Declare that your expectations will result in joy. (Read Proverbs 10:28)

e.- Do not be sluggish spiritually. You must fight the good fight of Faith like those who through Faith inherit the promises. (Hebrews 6:12).  Pray in tongues and pray all positive prayers confessing your beliefs.

* Never say any negative word, speak faith,  and stop owning the sickness or diagnoses 

f.- Keep affirming your healings  by proclaiming the Word of God about your new status as the forgiven, healed, restored, redeemed and everything the Word of God say are your benefits in Christ.

g.- Declare that you now function under the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus and there are no deaths, diseases, sicknesses (call out the name of the sickness) in your path. 

 h – Implement the Lifestyle changes- live clean, eat right, and purge your heart of all filthiness. 

In order to understand this teaching, you need to read up on the past teachings.

LEARN TO DO RIGHT ALWAYS.

Dear People of God, recently, it came to me that the reason many of us feel challenged by our Christianity, is because of double standards.

But our Christianity becomes easier if we can press on to develop Christlikeness in worship, character and service.  

Hence Jesus Christ says:

“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.” (Matthew 11:29 KJV)

When Jesus says we should take his yoke,  He is saying ‘be joined to me’.

 A yoke is a contraption that fit around the neck of two animals to enable them function in unity. 

An individual yoked with Christ cannot be brutal and wicked.  

Although the Christian is a Spiritual Warrior, we are to be gentlemanly –  be meek and humble. 

Haughtiness and hard heartedness is not becoming of a Christian.

Recently I was called in to moderate in a dispute between two Believers.

One was hurting because of an injustice done to him by the other. It was horrible to see a Christian behave in such a vile manner as we witnessed.

What hurt the most was that the offender was not remorseful at all. 

He claimed it was a private business arrangement that concerned no one, and he used ‘survival mode’.

So many of us out of selfish interests make decisions that are appalling even  to God.

Which reminds me of this scripture that says 

“the LORD has been a witness between you and the wife of your youth, against whom you have broken faith… Malachi 2:14

When you treat a brethren wickedly, you have broken the covenant of brotherhood. You broke faith!

No matter where you are or what you are doing against another individual; remember that God witnesses it.

As our picture post states; 

“A FALSE balance and unrighteous dealings are extremely offensive and shamefully sinful to the Lord, but a just weight is His delight. [Lev. 19:35, 36; Prov. 16:11.] (Proverbs 11:1 AMPC)

That unrighteous dealings,  whether between siblings, spouses, lovers or business partners,  is abominable before God. 

It also open you up for demonic attacks. 

And just in case you may have forgotten, the Bible says;

“Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God.] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap.”

(Galatians 6:7 AMPC)

In conclusion, instead of dealing unrighteously in order to satisfy the needs of the moment, remember that God already put checks and balances in place to checkmate your excesses.  It won’t end well at all, unless you repent.

However,  if you learn from Christ, join yourself to Him and produce His characteristics, you shall find rest for your Soul (Matthew 11:29)

Prayer:

Thank you Father for the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ that has appeared to many. 

Help me to live an exemplary life, both in private and public, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ ♥️.
