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.

 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. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior,  April 25th. 2023.

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

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.

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior. April 23 2023

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 ♥️. 

Shalom from Hephzibah Christly, TheSpiritualWarrior, April 22, 2023

Bible Reading:

“Surely he hath…carried our sorrows.” (Isaiah 53:4b KJV)

Introduction:

Previously, we discussed the great significance of the verb borne.

Today, we shall discuss the second significant verb, carried, derived from Hebrew cabal. Which means, ‘to bear something as penalty” 

It is used also in Isaiah 53:11:

“For he shall bear their iniquities” 

The same word is used in both instances with respect to our sins and sicknesses. 

Remember in previous articles that we discussed that sin is the major cause of sickness.

Therefore, if Christ Jesus bore the penalty for my sins and bore my sicknesses, then I’m free from the burden of sin and the scourge of Sicknesses. 

I pray that your understanding will be enlightened, so that you can catch the revelation, that healings and DIVINE health are also included in the  salvation package.

Prayer

I pray also that from these articles, faith will grow up in you and you shall use the shield of faith always against ALL sicknesses, diseases and disorders that try to come against you- your beliefs system In the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray.

#PrayerPoints4Today (10 mins)

1- Thank God as you spend time in worship and praying in tongues. 

2- If you are of the school of thought that your sickness is a penalty for your sin, then you are accusing God of unjustly extracting payment twice for sin, which is against the law of double jeopardy.

a)- Repent – apply the grace principle of 1 John 1:9.

b)- Ask God to forgive and to also help your unbelief. 

c)- Affirm that the Word of God is gaining ascendancy over all denominational dogmas and contrary beliefs that have made sickness breed in your mind and body. 

2- Command all the evil spirits of religion, unbelief, error, injustices, false accusations, and all other related demons, to leave your world and go at once to the feet of Jesus Christ.

3- Affirm that the Word of God is growing mightily in and through you, and producing what it says. 

4- Declare  that  nothing dies in you for the resurrection power is at work in you in the matchless name of Jesus Christ. 

5- Call out the name of whatever you were diagnosed with.  Tell it that its life-giving source has been cut off,  and it can No longer live in you, as in the days when you were ignorant to accommodate it.

6- Proclaim your healings and pray for all who are suffering from identical sicknesses and diseases. 

7- Thank God for your healings and pray in tongues and worship in songs.
