Healing is a Fact
 

 

 

 

A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.” Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” Immediately he was cured of his leprosy.
Matthew 8:2-3
Many Christians are suffering needlessly with sickness and disease. They don’t realize that healing has already been provided for them. Healing is not a promise from God but an established fact-for the Word of God says that “by his wounds we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5).
The problem is that perfect faith cannot exist where the will of God is not known. How can people have faith that God wants to heal them if they don’t know the will of God concerning their healing? The truth is that unbelief will prevent you from being healed. If you desire to be healed there is only one thing that will counter unbelief-sound Bible teaching.
You have to immerse yourself in the Word of God. You need to know what God has said concerning your healing. Then decide that you will believe what God says above every other opinion. Healing is the ministry of every believer, and that includes you!

God’s Word Never returns To Him Void

God’s Word Never Returns To Him Void

Something From Nothing!

 

 

“So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: It shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I send it.” (Isaiah 55:11)

 

 

 

God’s Word never return to Him empty. Once it has been uttered, it is settled and the case is closed (Psalm 33:8-9).

When God speaks, it is settled. Why? Because He can bring something out of nothing!  In Genesis 1:20-23, the Lord commanded the waters to bring forth marine life and out of nothing, all variety of sea creatures of various sizes, shapes and colours sprang forth. At that same time, in response to His command, all kinds of birds came forth and began to adorn the skyline. It was just His Word in action. This tells us that God does not always require materials to create miracles; His Word is enough. Similarly, in Exodus 17:1-6, out of the rock, God brought forth enough water to quench the thirst of a whole nation. God is a specialist at bringing out something out of nothing.

Are you in a situation of nothingness and you are in doubt as to whether God can do something about it? He can and He will! In that emptiness God will move to fill up the void. Has He spoken into your life a promise which after your assessment, you concluded was not possible? Wipe your doubts! God is bringing something out of that nothingness! You see, it takes looking through God’s eyes to see something in nothing. In your hopelessness there is hope for you. In that so-called terminal ailment, there is healing for you. In your impoverished state, there is abundance for you. Ensure you make your ways right with God, do everything you can to please Him; Worship Him and obey Him. Listen to His instruction and follow it diligently. It shall produce something out of nothing.

Prayer Point:  Dear Heavenly Father, let your Word be settled for good concerning my life and destiny, In Jesus Christ Name I pray! Amen!

 

 

 

 

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

Healing Is God’s Will

 

Matthew 8:2, “And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.”

 

MATTHEW 8:1-4

Leprosy was a hated disease and its symptoms are described in detail in Leviticus 13:1-46. This leper believed Jesus could heal him, but doubted His willingness to heal him. Jesus showed him His willingness to heal, and since He is no respecter of persons, He established a precedent for us (Rom. 2:11). This leper did not know God’s will concerning healing, but this is not the case with us. The Word of God is the will of God, and it reveals that it is always God’s will to heal.

Isaiah 53:5, makes it clear that when Isaiah said “with his stripes we are healed”, he was speaking of the physical healing of our bodies. Jesus provided for physical healing as well as forgiveness of sins. The very word “save” (Gk.-“sozo”) is translated “made whole” in reference to physical healing in Matthew 9:22, Mark 5:34, and Luke 8:48. James 5:15 says, “the prayer of faith shall save (Gk.-“sozo”) the sick.” Many scriptures mention the healing of our bodies in conjunction with the forgiveness of our sins. Healing is a part of our salvation, just as much as the forgiveness of our sins.

Nowhere do we find Jesus refusing to heal anyone. In light of Jesus’ statement that He could do nothing of Himself, but only what He saw the Father do (Jn. 5:19 and 8:28-29), His actions are proof enough that it is always God’s will to heal. There are certain things Jesus suffered for us that we should not suffer. Jesus died for our sins so that we would not have to pay for them (Rom. 6:23). Jesus took our sicknesses and diseases so that we could walk in health (Mt. 8:17; 1 Pet. 2:24). Jesus became poor so that we, through His poverty, might be rich (2 Cor. 8:9). If God be for us, then no one can successfully be against us.

The Lord has made every provision for you to walk in all He has provided for you today. Don’t put it off a minute longer.

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

God Knows everything

God knows everything

God knows the future

I can tell you what is going to happen even before it happen (Isaiah 46:10)

During the 1990’s, highly educated and experienced economists predicted doom for the American economy, yet we experienced quarter after quarter of improved profits and higher productivity. Stock market consultants forecasted a market decline and advised clients to switch into safer financial investments, yet the stock market continued to climb to extraordinary heights.

The reality is that no one really knows what the economy will do. As someone once remarked, “If you lined up all the economists in the world one after another, you wouldn’t have enough to reach a conclusion.”

Now consider the foreknowledge of God. At one time, nothing existed but God, yet at any point in time, He knew the past, present, and future. He knew when He would create the universe, that Adam and Eve would sin, and that He would send a Saviour.

To prove His ability to predict the future, God gave us hundreds of prophecies in the Bible. One that fascinates me is the prophecy that the Jewish people would be called together as a nation.

The temple of Jerusalem was destroyed in A.D. 70 and the Jewish people scattered from their homeland. What were the chances that a people without a country could survive as a nation? Every other nation since then has disappeared into oblivion. But in 1948, the Jewish people re-established their homeland in Israel. The odds are astronomical of that happening after nearly two millennia.

God’s prophecies are 100 percent accurate because He not only knows the future, He also controls the future.

Your View of God Really Matters …

What are your two or three top concerns about the future? Knowing that God controls the future, and that He loves you, give your concerns to Him and receive His peace.

What More Does God Say?

Isaiah 42:8-9; Deuteronomy 30:3-5; Zephaniah 3:20

Because God knows everything, I will go to Him with all my questions and concerns!

May the LORD bless Nigeria, American and Israel and take care of us; May the LORD make His face shine upon us, And be gracious to us; May the Lord lift up His countenance upon us, And give us peace, In Jesus Christ Name, we pray! Amen!

God is Absolute Truth

A Young Radical

“The Word Of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword….it exposes our innermost thoughts and desires. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God.” (Hebrews 4:12-13)

Many years ago, I was speaking at a large university. A young radical student, who was the head of the Communist Party on campus, confronted me. He railed at me, because I was encouraging students to follow Christ.

Rather than argue, I invited him to come to our home for dinner. After dessert I said, “I want to read something to you from the Bible.” He reacted with obvious irritation. “I have read the Bible from cover to cover,” he exclaimed. “It’s a ridiculous book. It’s filled with contradictions, lies and myths.”

I replied, “If you don’t mind, I will read it anyway.”

I read to him from John, chapter 1: “Before anything else existed, there was Christ, with God. He has always been alive and is Himself God. He created everything there is — nothing exists that He didn’t make. Eternal life is in Him, and this life gives light to all mankind …” (The Living Bible)

When I concluded reading, he said, “Let me see that.” He read it thoughtfully, then handed the Bible back to me without comment.

Then I turned to Colossians, Chapter 1, which records, “Christ is the exact likeness of the unseen God….” (The Living Bible)

He was very sober. After reading a couple of other passages, he was obviously very moved. His entire countenance had changed.

Later, as he stood to leave, I asked him if he would sign our guest book. He penned these words, which I shall never forget: “The night of decision,” a decision to follow Christ.

Your View of God Really Matters …

When someone asks you if you believe if Jesus really is the only way to God, do you duck, argue or do you read (or quote) them Jesus’ very own words from the Bible? Who has greater credibility: you or Jesus? Today, let Jesus speak through you.

What More Does God Say?

Hebrews 4:12-13; Isaiah 55:9-11; Isaiah 40:8; Philippians 1:15-18

Because God is absolute truth, I will believe what He says and live accordingly

Ezekiel at 22 minutes of age

Ezekiel at 22 minutes of age (Photo credit: David T Jones)

God Values Life

He will take pity on the weak and the needy and save the needy from death. He will rescue them from oppression and violence, for precious is their blood in his sight.

Psalms 72:13-14

We have a tendency to think of ourselves as being more civil than those who have come before.

However, God measures a society by what it does to uphold the integrity, dignity and sanctity of life. God cries out against oppression. God does not believe anyone is disposable or expendable. He issues commands in the Bible to ensure that His people knew how precious life is: Leviticus 24:17 says, “If anyone takes the life of a human being, he must be put to death.”

The prophet Ezekiel speaks out against the people of Israel who have forgotten this truth. In Ezekiel 45:9 he says, “You have gone far enough, O princes of Israel! Give up your violence and oppression and do what is just and right!”

Because every life is precious to God, it must be precious to His people.

Our job as Christians is to take a stand against such atrocities and pray that God will turn this nation back to the values upon which it was founded.

Will You Let God? God is able!

If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your forefathers.

Deuteronomy 7:12

There are many believers today who have received answers to their prayers and don’t even know it. From the moment they prayed, the Lord sent the answer.

Yet when they were told what they needed to do they refused to listen. They had the attitude of Naaman, whose pride almost robbed him of his healing…or like Samson, they refused to give up their addictions and live a holy life.

God desires to heal His people in every instance. In fact, God desires that no sickness be among His people (Deuteronomy 7:15). Yet in many cases, people have illnesses because they fail to obey Him faithfully.

Obedience and faith are prerequisites to covenant fulfillment. Without them we cannot receive from God for He doesn’t reward rebellion nor can He operate in disbelief.

Is there something that you desire from God? Are you willing to walk in faith? Are you willing to obey no matter what?

If you are willing to let Him, God will do all that He has promised to do for you according to His Word.

Hallelujah! We now live in a time when all our debts to God have been cancelled and all the things the devil stole from us have been returned.

OUR DEBTS HAVE BEEN CANCELLED

Luke 4:19, “To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”

LUKE 4:16-30

This scripture had been written prophetically by the prophet Isaiah about 650 years prior to this time. It was read in Jewish synagogues thousands of times. But the one this verse was speaking of had never spoken it before. With this pronouncement, Jesus began the year of Jubilee.

The Year of Jubilee was described in Leviticus 25. It was a year when everyone left their fields unworked and kept a sabbath unto the Lord. The Lord gave the people a miraculous provision the year before this jubilee started that sustained them for three years until their crops could once again be harvested.

This jubilee was different than the other sabbatical years in that every debt was cancelled. All property was returned to its original owner and anyone who had been sold into slavery was set free. It was a year of new beginnings.

Jesus proclaimed a spiritual jubilee. We now live in a time when all our debts to God have been cancelled and all the things the devil stole from us have been returned. Even our slavery to the devil has come to an end through the redemptive work of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is a time for rejoicing.

Jesus is our jubilee.

May Our God The Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

Thirsty? But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst

THIRSTY?  But whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst

John 4:14, “But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.”

JOHN 4:4-26

Jesus painted a beautiful picture of salvation in this passage. The salvation Jesus brings is like an artesian spring which doesn’t have to be pumped. It bubbles up constantly.

Unfortunately, not every Christian‘s experience matches Jesus’ description. Many people relate more to an old pump which has to be pumped and pumped. Just as a trickle of water comes, they have to rest. They lose their prime. The water stops. Then they have to start all over again.

Yet, Jesus said we would never thirst again. This doesn’t mean that one drink satisfies us forever. But, as we continue to avail ourselves of this water of life daily, we will be constantly refreshed. The well of His life is there, but we must partake.

The dryness in a Christian’s life comes when we substitute other things for the living water that only Jesus can give. Anytime a Christian begins to thirst again, it is not a reflection on the living water that Jesus gives, but rather an indication that we have been drinking from some other source.

“Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation” (Isaiah 12:3).

God can use you too

God can use you tooIsaiah 6:2

We mentioned this verse earlier this month, but it is such a strong   example of the worship that goes on in heaven that it is worth repeating. We   should emphasize the fact that one day each one of us will bow before God’s   throne and cry, “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord our God.”

For now, the angels have the ability to see into a realm   of glory that you and I cannot visualize. We may have the Holy Spirit living   within us, but we have yet to stand in God’s presence and see His   unspeakable, indefinable glory. However, the angels know the power, might,   and glory there. And if we are sensitive to the Spirit’s presence within us,   we will experience touches of heaven here on earth.

Whenever you and I worship the Lord, we join the activity of the   angels. While there is an entire network of angels consistently moving   between heaven’s realm and earth’s atmosphere, there always is worship taking   place in heaven. The throne room is never empty and never void of praise and   adoration to God.

I often tell those who express feelings of confusion concerning their   lives and futures that if they would spend more time in worship, they would   know exactly what God wants them to do. I have never heard of a confused   angel. They know what the Lord wants and they do it. Not every angel is   assigned to His throne room. They all have different roles and ranks.

This is an excellent thing to keep in mind when you become worried.   God has placed you right where you are so you can be His minister of love,   hope, and truth to those around you. His love is not confined to a church   building. Philip quickly learned this when an angel instructed him, “Go . . .   to Gaza” (Acts 8:26). He did exactly as he was told and an Ethiopian official   was saved as a result of Philip’s obedience.

May God Almighty prosper Nigeria and Israel and   defend us from all our enemies in Jesus Christ Name, Amen!

I WONDER WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO SEE GOD (ISAIAH 6)

Prophet Isaiah found out!  He had a vision of what it would be like to
see God. And God was very great and mighty.

He is surrounded by angels. When the
angels spoke, the Temple shook and was filled with smoke. It was both wonderful
and frightening.

Seeing The Lord and listening to the praise of the angels,
Isaiah realized that he was unfit to be in God’s presence. He cried out because
of his sinfulness. Then an angel brought a burning coal and announced that his
sins are forgiven.

Our God is great and awesome; He is also loving and
forgiving. Don’t make the mistake of thinking that God is weak or small just
because you can’t see Him.

And don’t make mistake of ignoring the forgiveness He offers
through Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!

Become A High – Flyer In Jesus Christ Name! Soar Like An Eagle! Intimacy With God

BECOME A HIGH – FLYER IN JESUS NAME! SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE!
INTIMACY WITH GOD!

Progress can be in stages; from walking to running to
flying, Isaiah 40:31. The best of course is flying tirelessly like an eagle.
And the Bible says that is possible for those who wait upon the Lord.

Walking is steady, systematic progress. Running on the other
is rapid, steady progress. Whereas flying contains elements of sudden explosive
progress. (Mk.4:3-8; Mt 25:14-28; Acts 3:1-8; 1 Sam.17:34-37; 1 Sam 2:8; 1 Sam
16:11-13; Lk 5:1-17, Acts 5:14-16).

The secret of being a spiritual high flyer is intimacy with
Christ Jesus. Paul who moved from being an antichrist to an apostle spent
quality time in prayers and was so intimate with Christ. And since intimacy
requires mutual agreement, anyone who wants to be intimate with God must be
holy. (Jn 15:15; 1 Cor.15:9; 1 Cor.14:18; 1 Thes.5:17; Gal.2:20, Amos 3:3; 1
Pet.1:15-17; Psa.91:1; Psa 23:6)

What’s your choice? To Fly or to Crawl?

Our deadly enemies grief and sorrow – satan! devil!!

Many of us, even though we’re believers, have seen grief and
sorrow as such a natural part of life that, we haven’t even questioned them. In
fact, if we’re honest, we’d have to admit there are times when we actually want
to feel sad and sorry for ourselves.

Why would we choose to feel sorrow? Because sorrow has an
emotional kick to it. It offers a surge of felling that, in the beginning
stages, is almost intoxicating.

But grief and sorrow are dangerous things. Several years ago
God showed me that they’re not the innocent emotions we’ve thought they were.
The force behind these emotions are actually spirit beings sent by the devil
himself to kill, steal and destroy.

They are a part of the devastating, satanic barrage Jesus
took on Himself when He died on the Cross (Isaiah 53). He bore grief and
sorrow, so we wouldn’t have to. If they come knocking on your door, remember,
they are not innocent emotions. They are deadly enemies that Jesus already
carried away at Calvary.

Don’t live as those who have no hope. You’re a believer. You
know that Jesus Christ died for you and rose again. That not only gives you
hope where physical death is concerned, it gives you hope in every situation.
Sorrow Not!!!!!!!

God Hasn’t Forgotten You! He Will Never Leave You Nor Forsake You!

Jesus is considered by scholars such as Weber ...

Behold, I have indelibly imprinted
(tattooed a picture) you on the palms of each of my hands……(Isaiah 49:16 AMP).

There’re
some Christians who upon hearing other people testimonies of God’s faithfulness
wonder if God has forgotten them, and ask “O
God, what about me?” The Lord has not and will never forget you, for He
says, “See, I have tattooed your name
upon my palm……”(Isaiah 49:16 TLB). So, don’t give up, help is on the way!

God isn’t
partial; He’s not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which you
have showed towards His name (Hebrews 6:10). He’s a rewarder of those that
diligently seek Him (Hebrews 11:6). Therefore all you need do is trust Him;
keep acting your faith and remain faithful and diligent in your service to Him.

He may not
respond when you want Him to but He’s always on time; He’s never late. He can
and will make happen for you what He’s made happen for others, for He’s no
respcter of persons (Acts 10:34). What He did for one He’ll do for another
under the same circumstances. And even if He’s never done what you’re asking
for anyone, He can do it for you, just because you asked Him.

So, quit
thinking that the Lord has forgotten you. In Isaiah 49:15 He assures you that
though a woman may forget her sucking child, and not show compassion towards
her own son, He will never forget you: “Can
a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have compassion on the
son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will I not forget thee.”

When you
hear others share their testimonies of the Lord’s goodness to them, greatly
rejoice with them and for them with all your heart! Knowing fully well that
yours is on the way, Amen! The Bible says rejoice with those that rejoice
(Romans 12:15), for as you do, you’re making room for your own testimony.

PRAYER

DEAR FATHER, I REJOICE AT THE COMFORT
AND ASSURANCE THAT YOUR WORD HAS BROUGHT TO ME TODAY. I THANK YOU FOR WATCHING
OVER ME TODAY TO DO ME GOOD, AND FOR SHOWING ME YOUR GREAT LOVE, FAITHFULNESS
AND MERCIES, IN JESUS CHRIST NAME. AMEN!

Illustrates Jesus’ description of himself “I am the Good Shepherd” (from the Gospel of John, chapter 10, verse 11). This version of the image shows the detail of his face. The memorial window is also captioned: “To the Glory of God and in Loving Memory of William Wright. Died 6th November, 1932. Aged 70 Yrs.” (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

In certain Christian circle, many believe that eating in your dream is ominous; they associate it with the activities of demons. But could there possibly be anything wrong with eating in your sleep? What’s the position of God’s Word on the subject?
Let’s begin by reviewing Isaiah 29:7-8: “And the multitude of all the nations that against Ariel…. Shall be as a dream of a night vision. It shall even be as when an hungry man dreameth, and, behold, he eateth; but he awaketh, and his soul is empty: or as when a thirsty man dreameth, and behold, he drinketh; but he awaketh, and, behold, he is faint, and his soul hath appetite…” If a man eats in his dream and still wakes up hungry, it means he really didn’t eat anything. This, therefore show there’s nothing to eating in your dream; it’s just the imagination of your spirit.
Satan thrives on the fear and ignorance of people. If you had a dream for example, and then you’re uncertain about the meaning, satan could launch an attack against your mind by suggesting negative interpretations to that dream. Fear might then creep in, which ultimately could pave way for demons to have a field day. So the problem isn’t with the dream; it has a lot more to do with accepting the negative interpretation of the dream brought to you by satan.
So you ought to be smart to always subject your dreams to the Word of God. Don’t accept the lie from satan that eating in your dream is ominous; if anything, it means prosperity! Throughout the Bible, there’s no place satan gave people food to eat in a dream; only God fed people in their dream, example is Peter (Acts 10:9-15).
If you found yourself eating in your dream, don’t be afraid. Wake up and begin to prophesy: “I was eating in my dream; therefore I shall always have food. I shall always have plenty!” Don’t wake up crying that someone has bewitched you in your dream, for you’re a new creation in Christ Jesus, and every food you eat is sanctified by the Word of God and prayer. Besides, no weapon fashioned against you shall prosper, be it in your dream or in real life. Amen!
