Are You Going

Through a Trial

or a Test?

Well just shout and praise the Lord if you are!

Seriously.

Any report of BAD NEWS that just came your way is yet one more opportunity for THE WORD TO BE PROVEN FAITHFUL and TRUE.

The enemy is going to be proven weak, yet again!

The Word is going to be shown to be powerful and faithful to accomplish in your life, EXACTLY what it says, yet again!!

God is going to be shown to be Strong, Powerful, Faithful, and True to His Word, yet again!

Hallelujah!
That really is worth shouting and praising about !!!

Did you get a report that your illness is more severe than you thought?

Then, PRAISE THE LORD.

BELIEVE Him at His Word and march around your room stating, “The TRUTH is, by Christ’s stripes I AM healed! It is written, God heals ALL my diseases! It is written, Jesus took EVERY sickness and disease of mine into His own body on the tree and by His stripes I WAS HEALED !!! Ha Ha on this attack!! There is NOT one weapon formed against me that will prosper!! NOT ONE. And this trial will be yet another glory report in my life, proving God is FAITHFUL and TRUE and NOT a LIAR! Hallelujah!”

I am going to leave this post up on this front page for the next few days, because someone needs to remember this! Search through my other Posts for more encouragement and more Scriptures and Confessions, but this Post is staying up front for a time.

We ALL need the reminder, that when an attack comes we should LAUGH* at the devil’s attacks and REMEMBER that God is the One Who is Powerful in your life, and God is the One Who is Truth.

He IS watching over His Word to see that it accomplishes in your life, EXACTLY what He said it would accomplish! {Isaiah 55:11}

Oh YES, He is watching over His Word!

He is not a liar. He is Truth.

This trial is going to build your faith SO strongly, proving to you yet once again that God is not a liar {Numbers 19:23} ….. as you BELIEVE in the Promises of God in the present tense form that they are written in, and as you SPEAK always like God’s Words are Truth in the present tense form that they are written in.

So let’s give the Lord a SHOUT of PRAISE!

Let’s rejoice in the Lord always! Again, the Bible tells us, REJOICE!

In EVERYTHING, in every trial, in every seemingly bad report, or seemingly devastating situation that arises, present your request to God, present all your prayers and supplications with FAITH AND with THANKSGIVING to God {Philippians 4:4-7, Mark 11:24} and the peace of God WILL guard your heart and mind.

After all GIVING THANKS to God, believing God’s Word is MORE True, IN THE MIDST of all trials, IS Faith. And BY FAITH we always receive our answers to all of our prayers! {Mark 11:24}

We don’t thank God FOR the trial !!!!

We thank God that HIS Word demolishes the trial and bad report, exactly in the way that whatever Promise we are standing on states.

So now, let’s raise our hands and shout, “THANK YOU FATHER! Your Word IS working mightily in me, accomplishing EVERYTHING You Promised!

I am the healed! {1 Peter 2:24}
I am the redeemed!
I am the sanctified!
I am the blessed! {Deut 28:8, Galatians 3:14}
I am protected! {Psalm 119:114}
My children will never go to hell! {Deut 30:6}
Pain and disease are demolished in my body! {{Psalm 103:3, 2 Cor 10:4}
No weapon formed against me shall every prosper! {Isaiah 54:17}
I always come out victorious! {2 Cor 2:14}
Because God says so!
He ALWAYS leads me in triumph!
And this situation is no different!
I come out victorious!
I AM healed!
I HAVE the peace of God!
I HAVE the wisdom of God! {1 Cor 1:30}
I HAVE the mind of Christ! {1 Cor 2:16}
I DO hear God’s voice and God leads me in all situations! {John 10:27}
Things seen are temporal and WILL change at the Word of God!
Mountains DO move out of my life! Always. Every time! No exceptions! {Mark 11:24}
Mountains DO move!

And God is faithful, always! {Psalm 33:4, Psalm 138:2, Psalm 146:6, Isaiah 45:23, etc}
Amen.”

____________

For the Word of the Lord is right and true; He is faithful in all He does
{Psalm 33:4}

By Myself I have sworn, My mouth has uttered in all integrity, a Word that will not be revoked
{Isaiah 45:23}

* Consider it PURE JOY, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds
{James 1:2 … please go read the rest of this Scripture and meditate on it, so it can bring you hope in the midst of every trial}

What Should I Keep Praying While Waiting For My Answer To Manifest

faithspeaksinc — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 19:06:51 +0000

___________________
___________

On October 28, 2009 I received the below question, through my “COMMENTS” section.

I tried really hard to answer the question in the same COMMENT section, but I am too long winded … sigh … and so I have decided to make the Question into a Post. It is a great question and deserves a full explanation.

On October 28, 2009 at 1:15 pm Yoojin Said:

Thank you so much for sharing such good Word of God! I stumbled upon your site when I was googling for testimonies of healing, and have been reading through many of them, getting encouraged with every one. I’m standing right now for my baby boy’s healing, and wondered if you could advise me on something –

I believe in my heart that when I prayed for his healing, God answered, and the answer was a “yes” in the spiritual realm. So I consider Mattie completely healed. I’m speaking over him daily to bring that from the spiritual to the physical, for I know that God works through the words that I speak over him.

My question — or rather, the point that I hope you can help with — is this: how/what exactly should I pray while I’m “praying until…”? For example, I’m standing in faith that his seizures will stop because God has healed him, and I rebuke it and tell it to be removed. Could you use this as an example, and show me what a sample prayer based on this situation should look like?

Thank you in advance, and God bless! I will be reading through the rest of your articles with great interest at heart!

My Answer is this:

Hi Yoojin:

You have asked such a good question … and I find it very interesting that even though I have seen many physical healings in my own body and in the body of my loved ones, when a physical attack comes upon me and I don’t see the physical healing manifest very quickly, my mind still can ask the question, “What exactly should I be praying?”

I believe this is my fleshy, fallen mind which is still open to attacks of doubt or even confusion. Our minds need to be renewed daily and be built up in faith thru daily reading of the Word ….. so I am glad you have asked this question so that others too, can have an answer to this question.

HOLD FAST

But the seed in the good soil, these are the ones who have heard the Word in an honest and good heart, and HOLD IT FAST, and bear fruit with perseverance.
{Luke 8:15 – NASB}

God says HOLD FAST TO THE WORD {Luke 8:15, NASB} and HOLD FAST TO YOUR CONFESSION {Heb 10:23}, meaning we need to keep believing AND speaking the Word over our situation, in the PRESENT TENSE form that it is written, believing we ARE healed.

So #1 –
I quote the Scriptures of Healing over my body, when a sickness or pain comes into my body.

God says He heals ALL our diseases {Ps 103:3}; The Word says Jesus bore ALL our sickness in His body and by His stripes we WERE healed {1 Ptr 2:24}; and God says His Word IS health to ALL our flesh {Prvbs 4:22}. God also tells us that we receive WHATEVER we ask of Him {1 John 5:15} and by believing we HAVE received our answer to prayer, God says we then will see our answer manifest {Mark 11:24}.

So at the FIRST sign of sickness, I quote those Scriptures out loud, then I pray something like:

“Father I thank You that You sent Your Word, Jesus Christ, and healed me. I thank You that Jesus bore ALL my sicknesses and diseases, and all my pain in His body on the tree, and by His stripes I AM HEALED.

Father, whatever I ask from You, You say I DO RECEIVE and so I ask You now to remove this (pain, this disease, etc) from my body and I thank You that You do exactly as I ask.

I believe You at Your Word, and I believe that I receive exactly what I have asked from You.

I thank You that You sent Your Word and healed me and I praise You that Jesus bore ALL my diseases in His own body on the tree, and so I know that I am now healed. I believe I have received my answer. I believe I am healed now. I don’t care what my body feels and I don’t care what my eyes see. I am healed now, in Jesus’ name. And I give You all the glory Father God, in Jesus’ name. Amen.”

#2 –
I will never again ask God to heal me. I will daily continue to pray something like:

“Thank You Father God that I do receive whatever I have asked from You, and I thank You that I am therefore healed. Thank You my body is pain free. Thank You my body is disease free. Thank You for sending Your Word and healing all my diseases. I praise You that Your Word is forever settled in heaven, that Your Word is True and sure, and I believe You at Your Word that I am, right now, healed and whole in Jesus’ name, and that sickness and disease cannot harm my body or attach to my body. In Jesus’ name.”

Do you see what I am doing?

I am HOLDING FAST to the Word of God.

I am HOLDING FAST to the Promises of God.

God says I AM HEALED and that I RECEIVE WHATEVER I ASK FROM HIM.

So I say I am healed and that I have received exactly what I asked from Him.

# 3 –
I will spend about 30 minutes minimum every single day thanking Him for healing me, thanking Him that He is faithful and dependable, and thanking Him that His Word heals all my flesh and that His Word is TRUTH.

Sometimes I will spend 30 minutes in the morning, then 30 minutes again at bed time worshiping and thanking Him.

Sometimes, I will worship morning, noon, and night.

However much time I can find during the day, I WILL TAKE THAT TIME.

I force my mind and my body to sit before God and praise Him, out loud, that His Word is True. I praise Him that He is not a liar, and I praise and thank Him that I AM healed.

This is a form of meditating on the Word, while also worshiping God.

My mind is being forced to meditate on the Truths of God’s Word when I speak the Word out loud and my faith is being built stronger and stronger that I am healed, because the book of Romans says Faith Comes By Hearing God’s Word {Romans 10:17}.

Also, I could do a huge word study on why we should be worshiping God, ie: He inhabits the praise and worship of His people; in His presence is fullness of joy; we are to offer the sacrifice of praise in the midst of trials; we should put on the garment of praise in place of the spirit of heaviness; etc

But the main fact is this:
A – God is worthy of our praise
and
B – when I THANK and praise Him for His Word as though the Word has ALREADY TAKEN place, my mind is absolutely renewed in faith and joy, believing I DO HAVE MY ANSWER even before it happens.

It is a very interesting fact.

It is not MIND over matter.

This is real FAITH.

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the EVIDENCE of things not seen
{Hebrews 11:1 – KJV}
OR

Now faith is BEING SURE of what we hope for
{Hebrews 11:1 – NIV}

The Bible says that Jesus was able to endure the shame (and pain) of the cross, because of the JOY SET BEFORE HIM {Hebrews 12:2}.

I truly believe Jesus looked with the eyes of faith, and saw Himself back in heaven with the Father sitting at the Father’s right hand. Jesus knew Psalm 110, which says “Sit at My right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet“. And as Jesus quoted the Word to resist the temptations from satan in Matthew 4, I believe Jesus quoted the Word to get through His temptation to walk away from the fear of the pain and shame He knew was awaiting Him at the cross.

The Word is our sword, like it was Jesus’ sword.

We must hold fast to the Word, believing it exactly as it is written.

When we quote the Word out loud and praise and thank God daily that our bodies ARE HEALED, then faith will rise up in us and we will become JOYFUL that we HAVE exactly what we asked for from God. And we will become JOYFUL that the Word is 100% true exactly the way it is written in the Bible, when it says WE ARE HEALED. We will actually get JOYFUL that we ARE healed. We will see it with our eyes of faith. And we will believe we are healed, even before our bodies feel that Truth. Our FAITH will be our evidence and proof that we are healed, and this will cause huge JOY to rise up in us.

Therefore, point #3 is very important for us to do.

And then finally,
#4 –
After a period of worshiping and praising God out loud, and meditating on the FACT that I AM healed, I pray in tongues and I ask God if there is anything He would like to speak to me. Sitting quietly in God’s presence after we worship Him is a blessing, for many times He will speak another encouraging Scripture to us which will spur us on in faith as we wait for the healing to manifest in our body.

Remember, we ARE HEALED.

Your prayer for your boy IS ANSWERED.

Jesus took ALL your boy’s diseases in His body on the tree and by Christ’s stripes your boy IS healed {Matthew 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24}.

We are simply waiting on God to receive more revelation or hear more Scriptures in ADDITION to the unshakable, eternal Promises that are already written to us, to encourage us in our faith.

There can sometimes be demonic opposition which hinders a prayer from manifesting in the natural realm, and so we must simply continue to praise God in Faith that we have our answer, and the demonic opposition will finally break off the situation {Daniel 10:13, Ephesians 6:11, 12}.

There are times when our faith just isn’t up to the situation, to break a sickness off immediately, but through persevering prayer, or persevering prayer with FASTING, the disease will leave {Matthew 17:20} … but don’t get all upset believing this is your problem immediately and then get nervous that you DON’T have faith for this particular situation. Jesus said, “WHOEVER … shall believe that those things which he says shall come to pass; he shall have whatever he says” {Mark 11:23} … so KEEP SAYING “My boy IS healed, in Jesus’ name, and seizures will NEVER AGAIN come upon his body”. Perseverance is a HUGE key in spiritual matters, to grow our faith and to lay hold of our answers. As I mentioned earlier DON’T LET GO of the Promises of God … ever.

And then there are times when our faith is simply TESTED, so that we can be made strong and mature in faith in order to overcome everything the devil will throw at us {James 1:2-4, Luke 10:19}, and so that our faith will be presented before Jesus as genuine, to His glory and honor {1 Peter 1:6 & 7, James 1:2-4, Luke 8:15 NAS}.

Whatever the reason is why there is a waiting period before you see your prayers manifest in the natural realm for Mattie, remember that God is FAITHFUL and that BY FAITH Mattie IS HEALED now {Hebrew 11:1}.

These are two foundational Truths to get anyone through a trial of sickness and get to the side of VICTORY.

Now, let’s pray together for your boy:

“Father, I thank You so much that Your Word does not return void to You, but Your Word accomplishes exactly what You sent it forth to accomplish.

You said in Your Word, that You heal ALL of our diseases, so I praise and thank You for healing Mattie now … totally, completely, and entirely.

I believe that Your Word will not return void to You, and so I know that Your Word DOES heal Mattie now, in Jesus’ name.

I praise You that seizures are a thing of the past.

I praise You that You have given Yoojin authority over ALL of the power of the enemy and now nothing can harm her or Mattie or anyone in her household, any longer! {Luke 10:19}

We praise You now, that Your Word is Truth.

We praise You that the power of seizures are broken, in Jesus’ name. Seizures will never again, come upon Mattie, in Jesus’ name.

We praise You now, that Your Word is forever settled in heaven and will never be changed.

We praise You now, that You are faithful to uphold Your Word and that by Christ’s stripes Mattie IS healed, in Jesus’ name.

We love You God.

We thank You that we can depend upon You.

We thank You that we do not have to wonder or be in confusion.

We thank You that You have written down in print, exactly what You desire for us, and we thank You that Your will is health and wholeness and freedom for Mattie.

Thank You for Your power that is TOWARDS us, healing all of our diseases all the time.

Thank You for Your power that is towards us, and in us, and for us, healing all our diseases and moving mountains out of our lives {Ephesians 1:19}.

We praise You Father for Your Your great love towards Mattie and for healing him.

Thank You that Your Word heals him now. In Jesus’ name, Mattie you are healed. In Jesus’ name, Mattie you are whole. Seizures, you will NEVER come back upon Mattie again, in Jesus’ name. In Jesus name, Mattie you ARE free.

Praise You Father for Your kindness towards Mattie.

Praise You that You have not left us helpless or alone on this earth. Thank You that You never forsake us, but that You do all that Your Word says You do.

We praise You. We give you glory. We love You and exalt Your holy name. Through Jesus Christ Your son. Amen.”

Keep praying such thanksgiving prayers like this one, Yoojin, daily. Even many times per day, stop and thank God for being faithful and for healing Mattie.

I very much look forward to hearing your great praise reports about your faith being built up, about your joy being very large while you wait on God, and I look forward to hearing that Mattie is completely seizure free!

God bless you with grace and joy while you wait on Him.

Love in Christ,
LeeAnn

Spirit Words formed Natural Things

Quick Thought For The Day

Spirit Words

formed

Natural Things

the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life
{John 6:63}

God spoke and created the world and everything in it {Genesis 1}

God spoke and manipulated the Laws of Gravity {2 Kings 6:6, Matthew 14:29}

God spoke and changed natural Laws and natural circumstances {Joshua 10:13, John 11:43}

So keep speaking God’s Words from your own lips.

God’s Words will change your circumstances.

God’s Words will defy the doctors reports.

God’s Words will change the hearts of your loved ones.

And God’s Words will even multiply your fishes.

Keep applying God’s Words out of your mouth, to ALL of your circumstances …. mixed with your faith …. and your circumstances WILL yield and change!

Why?

Because God said so! {Mark 11:23, Matthew 21:21, Matthew 17:20, etc}

“I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard see, you can SAY to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it WILL move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”
{Matthew 17:20}

IF Thou Be ….

faithspeaksinc — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:30:08 +0000

Category: Walking In The Spirit

IF Thou Be ….

I heard this statement on a Norvel Hayes “Faith For Today” tape: When satan came to Jesus, satan said, “IF Thou Be …” . Why would satan even say “IF” Thou be the Son of God? Satan KNEW Jesus was the Son of God. Satan saw Jesus in heaven, before satan rebelled, while satan was living in heaven with God.

Well, those words got my mind going ! Satan is always challenging WHO WE ARE IN CHRIST JESUS, too! Even as satan challenged Jesus !

Satan does this exact same thing to you and to me !!

He throws darts into our thinking and states:

IF you are healed, you wouldn’t be going into the hospital, would you!
IF you are healed, you wouldn’t have that pain in your leg!
IF you were healed by Christ’s stripes, then you wouldn’t get sick or have pain!

IF God really was teaching your children, as Isaiah states, then they wouldn’t be so mouthy and rebellious!
IF you have all your needs met, by Christ’s riches in glory, then your bank account wouldn’t be going negative would it!

IF … IF … IF …

STOP listening to the lies of satan !!! Why are you listening to the DECEIVER, and not listening to the TRUTH ??

We must continually get into the Word of God and get to know what Promises God has made for us and for our households !! We must get into the Word and get to know who we ARE, RIGHT NOW, in Christ Jesus !

WE ARE healed !

WE ARE righteous.

WE HAVE the mind of Christ.

WE HAVE all authority over the enemy.

WE ARE seated in heavenly places with the enemy under our feet.

WE ARE dead to sin, and sin shall no longer rule, or have control, over our mortal bodies.

WE HAVE been made rich in Christ.

Wealth and riches ARE in the house of the righteous!

.There is a Scripture for EVERY statement that I just made about who we are, right now, as a born-again believer. If you don’t know where these Scriptures are in the bible, and if you don’t quote these Scriptures out loud every day over your life, then your mind won’t get renewed to these Truths, and you won’t be able to walk in the reality and in the victory of these Biblical Truths! Bottom line.

Get into the Word today, and believe what it says for your life and STOP listening to the lies of the devil ! He doesn’t even have any new lies to put on people; he keeps telling the same lies over and over to us! {Well, I guess the same old lies are working well enough on the body of Christ! So why should he change his methods!}

But you can stand up and SHOUT today …. “IT IS WRITTEN” !!!!

Since Jesus is our example, let’s start yelling, “It is written” at the devil, every time a lie enters our mind !!!! This is what Jesus did.

Get to know who you are today, and MAKE the devil leave you alone !!! {Matthew 4:10-11}

Faith OR Fear

faithspeaksinc — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 13:00:58 +0000

Category: What Is Faith? What Is Living By Faith?

Faith or Fear

.
.

Faith and fear are on opposite sides of the same pole, because they both PRODUCE a result.

Faith is from God.
Fear is from the devil.

By faith you can receive things you desire or hope for.
By fear you can receive things you don’t desire and don’t hope for.

When we allow fear in, faith leaves.

Fear can push faith out of our hearts and minds
OR
faith can push fear out of hearts and minds.

The decision is up to us.

What we choose to meditate on daily, is a large factor determining what we will believe …. whether we will believe good will always come to us, or whether we will believe that bad will always come to us.

Again, whatever we keep before our eyes will sway our thoughts, our feelings, and our beliefs.

If we choose to keep the Word of God before our eyes continually, faith will grow {Romans 10:17} and we will believe God is for us and not against us.

But, if we choose to keep bad news and bad reports constantly before our eyes (in the form of the news media, or a doctors report, or hanging around people who only speak of the terrible things in life) then we will believe that bad wins out in life, and that bad will be apart of our life.

We get to choose what to believe.

Yes, this is true. WE get to choose.

We can choose to keep our thoughts and focus on God’s Word and so build our faith for good for our life
OR
we can choose to keep our attention and thoughts on the negatives of the world and so build our fear that bad will come to us.

We CAN choose to believe God at His Word, that a thousand may fall at our side, or ten thousand may fall at our right hand, but it will NOT come near us or our family members
OR
we can choose to believe that the Swine Flu is a pandemic which will certainly get us too; or that the water supply certainly is contaminated and is definitely harming our bodies; or that the pesticides on the fruits and veggies are wrecking havoc on our systems; or that …. well, you get the picture.

Whatever we give power to, by our believing, that will have domination over us.

Whether we give power to satan through fear
or
whether we give power to God through faith.

It is by believing the enemy at his word, that the bad report will happen, that we give him power and the ability to enter in and do what he threatened to do.

But it is also by believing God at His Word, believing that what God Promised will be done for us, that we give Him power and the ability to enter into our lives and do what He Promised to do.

Fear is faith in the negative.

Fear is faith (believing) that a negative report, an unwanted or undesired thing will come upon us … and our actions, our words, and our lifestyles always show if we truly believe the negative/bad report is coming to pass in our life!

And Biblical Faith is believing the Word of God, the desired, hoped for and longed for report (or Promises) will come to pass in our life … and again, we will always act, walk, and talk like the Bible is True, when we believe it to be Truth for us.

Faith or Fear.
We choose.

But God already told us what to choose,
if we will listen to His Words:

“Choose life”
{Deut 30: 15,19}

“Choose prosperity”
{Deut 28:11, Deut 30:9,15}

“Choose blessing”
{Deut 28:2, Deut 30:19}

Amen.

Jesus Our Substitute

faithspeaksinc — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:15:21 +0000

Category:
Confessions for Daily Use

JESUS OUR SUBSTITUTE

Born-again believers everywhere, won’t dispute the fact that Jesus was our substitute, when it comes to sin:

2 Corinthians 5:21 – God made Him who had no sin to
BE SIN for us, so that in Him WE might become the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God

But salvation does not stop there.

Lets take a quick look at some other “things” Jesus Christ did
for us, with His own body, at the cross of Calvary:

He went to Hell, so we could go to Heaven:
Isaiah 53:9 – He was assigned a grave with the wicked
Matthew 28:7 – He has risen from the dead
Psalm 88:5 – I am set apart with the dead, like the slain who lie in the grave, whom you remember no more, who are cut off from your care. You have put me in the lowest pit, in the darkest depths, Your wrath lies heavily upon me

He became poor, so we could be rich:
2 Corinthians 8:9 – For you know the grace of our
Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became POOR,
so that YOU through His poverty might BECOME RICH

He bore our sickness and diseases, so that we could have health:
1 Peter 2:24 – He Himself bore our sins in His body
on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by His wounds you HAVE BEEN HEALED
Matthew 8:17 – This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah: “He TOOK UP OUR INFIRMITIES AND CARRIED OUR DISEASES”
Isaiah 53:5 – And by His wounds WE ARE HEALED

He took on sorrow, so that we could have joy:
Isaiah 61:13 – to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of GLADNESS instead of mourning, and a garment of PRAISE instead of a spirit of despair
Isaiah 53:3-4 -He was … a man of SORROWS (griefs – NKJ), , and familiar with suffering … He was despised … Surely HE TOOK UP OUR INFIRMITIES and carried OUR SORROWS
Isaiah 53:5 – the punishment that BROUGHT US PEACE was upon Him

He was rejected by God, so that we could be accepted by God:
Isaiah 53:4 – we considered Him stricken by God, smitten by Him, and afflicted
Isaiah 53:10 – yet is was the Lord’s will to crush Him and cause Him to suffer
Psalm 88:5 – Your wrath lies heavily upon me
Romans 5:1 – Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have PEACE WITH GOD through our Lord Jesus Christ
Romans 5:11 – we also rejoice in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received RECONCILIATION

Jesus Christ became a curse for us, so that we could be blessed:
Galatians 3:13 – Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by BECOMING A CURSE FOR US, for it is written: “Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree”. HE REDEEMED US IN ORDER that the BLESSING given to Abraham might come the Gentiles

And again, Jesus Christ became sin for us, so that we would become the righteousness of God:
Isaiah 53:5 – He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities
Isaiah 53:6 – the Lord has laid on Him the INIQUITY of us all
Isaiah 53:8 – for the transgression of my people He was stricken
Isaiah 53:11 – After the suffering of His soul … my righteous servant will justify many, He will bear their iniquities
Isaiah 53:12 – He bore the sin of many

Receive Christ as your healer, peace provider, financial provider, curse breaker, etc. today!

He paid for your victory!
Receive it, and thank Him for it!

Hallelujah.

Prayer to pray over your life today:

Father, I praise and thank You that Jesus Christ became a curse for me so that I could be blessed with the same blessings given to Abraham and his descendants;

I thank You that Jesus Christ became sin for me in order that I would become the righteousness of God;

I praise and thank You that Jesus was rejected by You, Father, so that I would never have to be rejected!
Thank You for forgiving me, for loving me, and for accepting me;

Thank You Father that Jesus Christ bore ALL of my sickness and diseases in His very own body on the tree and by His stripes I AM healed!

Thank You Father that Jesus Christ became poor so that all of my needs could be met by Your riches in glory through Christ Jesus. Because of Christ Jesus, I am rich!

Thank You Father that Jesus went to hell so that I could go to heaven. He paid the price and now the bill is Paid In Full.

Thank You also Father that Jesus bore all my sorrows and all my griefs and has given to me instead, the oil of joy and a spirit of praise!

I therefore resist sin, I resist sickness, I resist fear, and everything that is not from You Father.

I receive my inheritance which Jesus purchased for me at the Cross!

Thank You Father for freeing me! In Jesus’ name! Amen.

Why Am I Still Sick? Conclusion

Is It Always God’s Will To Heal?

Why Am I Still Sick ??

Conclusion

.In Conclusion, I have provided the following quick reminder list, to remind us of the steps we need to accomplish in order to receive any request from God.

We must:
Speak to our mountains / sicknesses / problems and command them to leave {Mark 11:23};

We must believe what we say occurs {Mark 11:23};

We must believe that we have what we say, at the moment we say it / we must believe we have what we ask for in prayer, the moment we ask for it {1 John 5:14-15, Mark 11:24};

We must continue to always call things that are not, as though they already are {Romans 4:17} and call ourselves healed, or free, or delivered, etc;

We must believe it is always God’s will to heal {Matthew 8:17, 1 Peter 2:24, Psalm 103:3} and believe God will always perform exactly what He has Promised {Jeremiah 1:12};

We must keep God’s Word ever before our eyes to build our faith, so that our emotions, our thoughts, or our feelings won’t distract us from the Truth {Joshua 1:8, Romans 10:17, Mark 4:15-20};

And we must keep God’s Word ever before our eyes, because He is a rewarder of those who DILIGENTLY seek Him {Proverbs 4:4 & 20-21, Hebrews 11:6};

We must resist and cast out all doubt from our thinking, bringing our thoughts in line with Christ’s Word {2 Corinthians 10:5} and resist and cast out the devil from our thinking and from our feelings {James 1:6-7 & 4:7, Ephesians 6:16};

We must mix faith with the Promises of God, in order to receive anything from God {Hebrews 4:2, James 1:6-7};

And we must combine PATIENCE with our faith knowing the testing of our faith is maturing us and producing perseverance {Hebrews 6:12, James 1:2-4, Ephesians 13}.

If we will follow the above guide lines and always walk in love towards others and be quick to repent of all sin {1 John 1:9, 1 Cor 11:28-32}, we will see that we will always have the requests which we make of God {1 John 5:14-15} ….. even as He has Promised to us. Hallelujah! .

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us – whatever we ask – we know that we have what we asked of Him”
{1 John 5:14-15}

Speaking What The Father Says

faithspeaksinc — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:10:48 +0000

Heading:
Teachings On The Power of The Tongue

SPEAKING WHAT THE FATHER SAYS

Jesus said,
“as My Father hath taught Me, I speak these thing”
{John 8:28}

and
“He Who sent Me is true; and the things which I heard from Him, these I speak to the world”
{John 8:26}

When times get tough and your mouth wants to say the opposite of what the Word says …. stop. Guard your mouth. Stop your mouth from speaking anything contrary to the Word of God. Stop your mouth from speaking anything that is contrary to what God proclaims is your inheritance.

God says you ARE healed {1 Peter 2:24}
God says He heals ALL your diseases {Psalm 103:3}

God says you WILL eat and be satisfied {Deut 11:15}
God says you and your children will NEVER be found begging for food {Psalm 37:25}

God says His blessings WILL overtake you when you obey Him {Deut 28:8}
God says that the peoples of the earth WILL be able to see His blessing upon you and your family {Deut 28:10}

God says you ARE blessed and not cursed {Psalm 1:1, Galatians 3:13,14}
God says your children WILL be blessed {Psalm 37:26} and your children WILL be mighty on the earth {Psalm 112:2}

And what God says, we should say.

And what God teaches us, we should believe and then speak accordingly.

Choose today, and tomorrow, and the next day to speak ONLY that which the Father says.

Choose to call yourself blessed.

Stop siding with the devil by calling yourself sick. Or depressed. Or unlucky.

Stop siding with the devil and calling your children rebellious.

Choose to say what God says, what God has taught us, what God has called us.

With Christ as our example, let’s say exactly what He said about Himself, and state, “I ONLY say that which I hear the Father say and I only say that which the Father has taught me.”

* * *

Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof
{Proverbs 18:21}

… whosoever shall say … and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith
{Mark 11:23}

God’s Covenant Agreement With Us

faithspeaksinc — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 13:15:04 +0000

Category: Covenant Thoughts

Outline Of God’s

COVENANT AGREEMENT

Let’s stand in Agreement with God’s Covenant for us and for our family members.

From Deuteronomy 29:10-14

I thank you Father, for allowing me to stand before you today. I stand here representing my entire family … my husband or wife, my children, my in-laws, my brothers and my sisters.

I stand unwavering, in my Covenant with You, Father, through the blood of Jesus, so that You may establish me and my family members as Your people … a people holy and separated unto Yourself and for Your glory.

I thank You, that You will be God to me and my family members forever, even as you swore to my forefathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

I thank You that even as my forefathers were not perfect in their own strength, yet You showed Yourself faithful and strong on their behalf because of Your Covenant with them.

And I thank You and I praise You, that the same blessing has come upon me in Christ Jesus, because Jesus became a curse for me and my family members, so that the Blessing of Abraham could come upon us, in Christ Jesus! {Galatians 3:10-14}

From Deuteronomy 30:2-20

I also praise You and I thank You Father God, for Your compassion upon me and my family members. I thank You for prospering us and circumcising my heart and the hearts of my descendants!!

I praise You for Covenanting with me for our good and for our prosperity … spirit, soul, and body … and I thank you for making us prosper and abound in ALL the works of our hands!

I believe You at Your Word, and I believe Your Covenant with me is for my family’s good, and that you do rejoice over us even as you rejoiced over our forefathers!

I choose to obey Your voice Lord.
I choose to obey Your commands and Your Words.

And I know that in doing such, You will watch over me and my family members daily, to bless us and to protect us!

I thank You that You have not made Your ways too hard or Your Covenant too hard or mysterious, so that I cannot obey and perform all that You require of me. But instead, You have put your Words into my heart and You have put Your Words into my mouth, so that I can keep all of Your commands, so that I and my descendants may live!

Thank You, Father, for giving us life and blessing, prosperity and goodness!

I choose life today.
I choose Your peace, Your blessing, Your Lordship, and Your prosperity.

And I praise You and thank You for enabling me and all my family members to choose life, and so cling to you, and live!

I give You all glory and honor and praise, for making such an awesome and wonderful Covenant with me, and for calling me and my family members Your children!

In Jesus’ name.

______________________

Please remember that even if you are not yet EXPERIENCING the full Blessing and Prosperity of God’s Covenant in your family members, you are then praying this Covenant Prayer by FAITH.

Faith is our ASSURANCE that we have what we desire.

Not that we are GOING TO HAVE, but that we HAVE, right now, what we desire and what God has Promised us.

And Faith is our confidence that we have what we have requested from God {Heb 11:1}.

So remember to mix your faith with your prayer, as you stand strong believing that God HAS made a Covenant with YOU AND YOUR HOUSEHOLD because of the blood of Jesus.

It is God’s desire to bless you with the blessings of Abraham and to bring peace, health, security, and prosperity to EVERY AREA in your life and in the lives of your loved ones.

Praise God for His loving kindness towards us, and His faithfulness to His Promises, Covenants, and oaths. Amen.

2 Corinthians 1:20: “For ALL of the Promises of God in {Christ Jesus} are YES, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us.” {NKJV}.

Galatians 3:13 & 14: “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us … that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus …” {NKJV}.

God’s Word Regarding Healing

faithspeaksinc — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 01:30:00 +0000

______________

A Word regarding Healing:

I AM the LORD, Who heals you;
I will never leave you nor forsake you.

But you must hold fast to My Word;
You must resist fear and doubt.

Keep My Word always before your eyes;
Don’t let My Word leave your mouth.

I will never let you be put to shame when you trust in My Word;
For those who hope in Me are never put to shame.

My Word will always accomplish that which I sent it forth to do.
My Word will always bear the fruit in you which it says it will produce;
The fruit of healing;
The fruit of health;
The fruit of joy as you trust in My Word;
and the fruit of deliverance and salvation.

My Word always produces that which it was sent forth to do;
But you must hold My Word fast.

Resist fear and doubt.
Tell them to leave you.

Don’t let fear or doubt have any place in your heart or in your thinking or these will uproot and throw away the Word of health planted in you.

I AM always True to My Word.
Always.
