HEALING CONFESSIONS

When we know that the enemy has come to attack us, we must start OUR HEALING CONFESSIONS!!!


ONLY with the HELP of THE HOLY SPIRIT can we ward off the enemy's advances!!!  The ONLY way that we can keep our victory is by heading off that ole skunk at the pass!!! 



John 16:13 (NKJV) However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.


But how do we head the enemy off at the pass? 


We stand on THE WORD OF GOD and WE CONFESS HEALING SCRIPTURES over ourselves!!!  WE REFUSE to take down or give in when the enemy attacks our bodies!!!


Here is the best way to stay healed all the time!!!


Every morning when you get up, confess your healing scriptures and plead the blood of THE LAMB over your body!!!


Any time a symptom tries to attack your body, confess THE WORD!!!  Confess your HEALING!!!


Listen carefully to the HOLY SPIRIT!!!  The minute the HOLY GHOST shows us that the enemy is trying to make us sick, we have to CONFESS OUR HEALING!!!  By CONFESSING OUR HEALING, we are kicking that ole skunk in the seat of the pants every time we get the chance!!!


Hey, that means that I have to confess my HEALING all the time!!!  Yep, it sure does!!!


Don’t you want to be HEALED ALL THE TIME?


I know that I want to be HEALED ALL THE TIME – EVERY MINUTE OF EVERY DAY!!!


I have my favorites like anyone else does!!!  And I have to confess them ALL THE TIME, so that I can walk in DIVINE HEALTH!!! 

Look, here’s the deal!!!  Everyone has their favorite scriptures, and that is just fine!!!  So, you pick out your favorite scriptures and you stand on them!!!  And you confess them over your body ALL THE TIME!!!

And health to all their flesh.

²³ Keep your heart with all diligence,
For out of it spring the issues of life.

What is Divine Health???

  
When we walk in Divine Health, we are DON’T GET SICK!!! 


That doesn’t mean that the enemy has quit attacking us!!! 


What it means is that we have cut him off at the pass!!!


It means that we see him coming and we head him off!!! 


I can just hear someone saying, Is that even possible?


And yes, it is possible!!!


THE LORD WANTS US TO WALK IN DIVINE HEALTH!!!  HE wants us to get to that place where we are NOT just getting sick and then getting our healing, but where we stay well all the time!!! 


John 10:10 (AMPC) The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).


We can’t live an abundant life, if we are sick all the time!!!  GOD never intended for HIS children to be sick!!!  GOD didn’t create sickness and disease!!!  HE NEVER INTENDED FOR MAN TO BE SICK!!!  Sin brought sicknesses into the world and we all know that sin came in when man fell.


WITH THE HELP OF THE HOLY SPIRIT, WE CAN WALK IN DIVINE HEALTH!!! 


WE CAN DEFEAT SICKNESS AND DISEASE!!!  We can keep the enemy who would like to attack us with sickness and disease under our feet!!!


Romans 16:20 (ESV) The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.


When it was time for JESUS to go back to THE FATHER, HE told HIS disciples that HE was sending them another COMFORTER, THE HOLY SPIRIT!!!  THE WORD OF GOD tells us that when GOD, THE HOLY SPIRIT comes, HE, THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH will show us things to come!!!


John 16:13 (KJV) Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.


We seek and ask THE HOLY SPIRIT to help us walk in DIVINE HEALTH by showing us when the enemy is trying to make us sick!!!


John 16:13 (AMPC) But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving Spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth). For He will not speak His own message [on His own authority]; but He will tell whatever He hears [from the Father; He will give the message that has been given to Him], and He will announce and declare to you the things that are to come [that will happen in the future].


When the HOLY SPIRIT shows us that the enemy is trying to make us sick, we have to stand on GOD’S WORD for our HEALTH!!!  We have to begin our CONFESSION OF THE WORD OF GOD and stand on HIS WORD in FAITH!!!  We have to believe that we are HEALED!!!   


Isaiah 53:4-5 (NKJV)

⁴ Surely He has borne our griefs, And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.

⁵ But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.


We must BELIEVE that by CONFESSING HIS WORD over our bodies, we are keeping them strong and healthy, so that the enemy cannot make us sick!!!  We continue our confessions, so that sickness cannot attach itself to us!!!   


Jeremiah 17:14 (AMP) Heal me, O Lord, and I will be healed;
Save me and I will be saved, For You are my praise.


By CONFESSING of GOD’S HEALING WORD over our bodies, we can head that ole skunk off at the pass!!!  When we begin to confess THE WORD of GOD over our bodies, we have circled all the wagons and armed ourselves!!!   


Mark 11:22-24 (NKJV) 

²² So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

²³ For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

²⁴ Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.


When we confess GOD’S WORD, we close ALL THE GATES, and MAKE OUR FORTRESS SECURE, so that the enemy cannot enter in and make us sick!!!  We have called out ALL THE TROOPS and armed every one of them with THE WORD OF GOD!!!


Matthew 18:18-19 (NKJV)

¹⁸ “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

¹⁹ “Again I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.

John 14:13-14 (NKJV)

¹³ "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴ If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."


And because we are armed with THE WORD OF GOD, we know that he is already a defeated foe!!!  We know where our enemy is going to spend eternity!!!


1 Corinthians 15:57 (AMP) …thanks be to God, who gives us the victory [as conquerors] through our Lord Jesus Christ.


Just as many cities including those of Jerusalem and Jericho had high walls with soldiers and watchman who stood guard on the walls, so that they could see the enemy coming, we have to be aware of what is going on around us and we have to maintain our guard!!!  We have to be watchful and just like those soldiers, we have to be ready to fight!!!  


Matthew 11:12 (NKJV) And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.


We have to be ready to fight using HIS WORD!!!  We have to know that we are healed no matter how we feel and no matter what comes against us!!!  We have to know that HE IS THE LORD GOD WHO HEALS US and THAT HE CHANGES NOT!!! 


Exodus 15:26 (KJV) …for I am the Lord that healeth thee. 


Malachi 3:6 (KJV) For I am the Lord, I change not…


You know, the watchmen and soldiers on the walls were fed and given water!!!  They maintained shifts so that they could get much needed rest and sleep, while someone else took over the watch!!!  In this manner, they made sure that someone was always watching!!!


Isaiah 40:28-31 (KJV)

²⁸ Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

²⁹ He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

³⁰ Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

³¹ But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.


It is our job to be prepared!!!  To do this, we must study, fast, and pray!!!  It is our job to know THE WORD, so that we can be armed with it to protect ourselves!!!  It is also our job to rest in GOD, so that we can be well rested when the enemy attacks!!! 


Matthew 11:28-30 (NKJV)

²⁸ Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

²⁹ Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.

³⁰ For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”


THANKFULLY, we have FATHER GOD, OUR LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST, and THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH, THE HOLY GHOST to keep watch and sound the alarm when the enemy comes to attack!!!      


Psalm 121 (NKJV)

¹ I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?

² My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

³ He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.

⁴ Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

⁵ The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.

⁶ The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

⁷ The Lord shall preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.

⁸ The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.

 

JESUS DIED FOR OUR HEALING!!!

  
I AM HEALED!!!  ARE YOU?


GOD’S WORD SAYS THAT WE ARE HEALED!!!


Isaiah 53:4-5 (NKJV)

⁴ Surely He has borne our griefs, And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted.

⁵ But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His stripes we are healed.


Oh, really!!!  You don’t think that this scripture is referring to you!!!  Well, I have a scripture that IS for you!!!   


THE WORD also says that YOU WERE HEALED!!!


1 Peter 2:24 (NKJV) "who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed."  


When GOD sent HIS ONE AND ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS, to die on the cross, HE HAD EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US ON HIS MIND!!!  JESUS died for our HEALING!!! 


EVERY PERSON on the face of this earth has the right to be healed!!! 


Isaiah 57:19 - “Peace, peace to him who is far off and to him who is near,” Says the LORD, “And I will heal him.”


NOT maybe, NOT and, NOT if, and NOT but!!!


So, let’s do an attitude check!!!


What do you believe?


Are you HEALED or are you SICK????  You decide!!!


Is your nose running?  Are you in pain??? 


Does that make a difference or are you healed, anyway???


I ask you this, because I want to know what you believe!!! 


Do you believe that you are healed?  Do you stand on THE WORD of GOD for your healing?  Do you walk around saying and knowing that you are healed???      


Exodus 23:25 (NCV) If you worship the Lord your God, I will bless your bread and your water. I will take away sickness from you.


Or do you decide that you are sick the moment you sneeze or the moment you feel a tickle in your throat? 


If you sneeze, are you trying to catch a cold?  And why in the world would you be running after a cold trying to catch it?   
 

Let’s tell the truth!!!  WE’VE BEEN TAUGHT TO BE SICK!!! 


If we don’t feel quite right, we say, I feel sick!!!  And if we have a fever, we say, I’m running a fever, I must be sick!!!  When any one sneezes or coughs, someone says, you must be getting sick!!!  Or you must have a cold.  And THE LORD ONLY knows that you better NOT have a tickle in your throat, because we ALL know what that means!!!


We have ALL been taught that if you have pain, then something is wrong in your body, because you wouldn’t hurt otherwise!!!  We’ve ALL been taught that if we are in pain, we better get some medicine or make an appointment with the doctor!!!   


WELL, ISN’T THAT WHAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US HAS BEEN TAUGHT???


Somewhere down the line, (way back in time) man swallowed a lie from the devil!!!  That lie was that we have to be sick!!!  And if we are in pain, there must be something wrong!!!  


So, if we feel bad or we hurt somewhere, then we couldn’t possibly be healed!!!  And man has been getting sick ever since!!!


Folks, it isn’t just time to get HEALED, IT IS TIME TO BE HEALED!!! 


We have to trust GOD and know that HE WANTS TO HEAL US!!!  HE says so in HIS WORD!!!  Just as HE told the children of Israel long ago, HE IS THE LORD WHO HEALS YOU.     


Exodus 15:26 (NKJV) …For I am the Lord who heals you.


And even though THE LORD said this to Israel back then, it is still good for us today!  For HE tells us that HE IS THE LORD AND HE CHANGES NOT!!!  HE says, I am the same yesterday, today and forever. 


Malachi 3:6 (CEB) I am the Lord, and I do not change…


Hebrews 13:8 (KJV) Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.


GOD WANTS US TO BE HEALED!!!  HE WANTS US TO BE MADE WELL!!!  HE WANTS US TO BE MADE WHOLE!!! 

 
If GOD didn’t want us to be healed, then THE LORD JESUS CHRIST would NOT have healed ALL that came to HIM when HE was on this earth.


Acts 10:38 (KJV) …God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.


Matt. 4:23 (KJV) And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.


Matt. 8:2-3 (NKJV)

² And behold, a leper came and worshiped Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” 

³ Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.


Matt. 14:14 (NKJV) And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.


Folks, these people didn’t have THE WORD of GOD, but they came to JESUS IN FAITH because they had heard that HE HEALED THE SICK!!!  When we read THE WORD, we know that HE WANTS TO HEAL US!!!
  

THEREFORE, IT IS TIME TO STOP GETTING SICK!!!  IT IS TIME TO WALK AND STAND ON GOD’S WORD THAT SAYS WE ARE HEALED!!! 


Matt. 8:16-17 (NKJV)

¹⁶ When evening had come, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick,

¹⁷ that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:

“He Himself took our infirmities
  And bore our sicknesses.”


IT IS TIME TO PROCLAIM OUR HEALING!!!  And that means that we have to confidently and consistently CONFESS OUR HEALING!!! 


Mark 11:22-23 (NKJV)

²² So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.

²³ For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.


We have to understand that every time we hurt or we have a symptom of sickness, it is time to CONFESS OUR HEALING!!! 


Mark 11:23-24 (ESV)

²³ …and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him.

²⁴ Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.


John 14:13-14 (NKJV)

¹³ "And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

¹⁴ If you ask anything in My name, I will do it."


But my throat itches or it tickles!!! 


The enemy is attacking your body.  He is trying to make you think and believe that you are sick!!!  He wants you to confess sickness, so he can make you sick!!!  Instead, you have to proclaim YOUR HEALING!!!


You have to say, I AM HEALED!!! 


When the enemy attacks my body like that, I say, I refuse to give in to that tickle or that itch!!!  I refuse to be sick!!!  I AM HEALED!!!    


Therefore, I say to that tickle or that itch, NO! NO! I AM HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!!  Tickle or itch, you have no right in my body!!!  Tickle, I will NOT accept you in my throat!!!  You stop in the name of JESUS!!!  I AM HEALED!!!


And I say to my throat, Throat, you are HEALED in the name of JESUS!!!  Throat, you line up with the WORD OF GOD THAT SAYS YOU ARE HEALED!!!  I am HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!


But my nose is running!!! 


Well then, wipe it and say, I AM HEALED!!!  Tell your nose that it has to line up with THE WORD OF GOD which says, YOU ARE HEALED IN THE NAME OF JESUS!!! 


No matter what happens in my body or to my body, and no matter how the enemy attacks me, I AM HEALED!!! I stand on Mark 11:23-24 which say that I have what I say and that whatever I ask in prayer will be done!!!  I have to STAND ON THE WORD!!! 


Mark 11:22-24 (KJV)

²² And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

²³ For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; 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.

²⁴ Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.


GOD gave us FREE WILL!!!  Therefore, we have a right to choose whether we shall live or whether we shall die.  And we have the right to decide to BE HEALED or to BE SICK!!!   


But me, I CHOOSE TO LIVE!!!  And I CHOOSE TO BE HEALED!!!


Deut. 30:19-20 (NKJV)

¹⁹ I call heaven and earth as witnesses today against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing; therefore choose life, that both you and your descendants may live;

²⁰ that you may love the Lord your God, that you may obey His voice, and that you may cling to Him, for He is your life and the length of your days...


If you really want to, you can choose to die!!!  But you can also CHOOSE TO LIVE!!!  You can choose to be sick, or you can choose to be HEALED!!!


But why would anyone want to be sick instead of being well?  Why would anyone want to suffer and be in pain when they can be healed?


It takes some time!!!  You have to train your body to be healed, but after a while, it will help you to fight off sickness and disease.


You have to think of it this way!  It took years and years for your body to learn to be sick, so it takes time and training to learn to be healed!!!  It takes THE WORD of GOD to help you get healed and help you stay healed!!!  You have to train your mind and your body with GOD’S WORD!!!


It takes the WORD of GOD to ward off symptoms of sickness and disease!!!  And it takes a made-up mind!!!  You can’t give up or give in to sickness and disease!!! 


You have to remember that HEALING ALWAYS COMES!!! 


GOD’S WORD does NOT return unto HIM VOID!!!  GOD’S WORD always accomplishes whatever HE assigns it to do!   


Isaiah 55:11 (NKJV)

So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.


So, speak THE WORD and WATCH IT COME TO PASS!!!  Say, I AM HEALED and WALK IN HEALING!!! 


BE HEALED!!!  BE MADE WELL!!!  BE MADE WHOLE!!!

DON’T SHOOSH MY HOLY GHOST!!!

   
John foretold of the coming of the Christ.  He said that there was ONE coming who would baptize with the HOLY GHOST and fire!!! 


Matthew 3:11 (NKJV) I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is coming after me is mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire.


When JESUS was getting ready to go to the FATHER after HIS death on the cross, HE told HIS disciples that before they could go out to minister the gospel, they were to wait for THE PROMISE that HIS FATHER was sending them!!!  They were to wait until they were endued with power from on high!!! 


Luke 24:49 (NKJV) Behold, I send the Promise of My Father upon you; but tarry in the city of Jerusalem until you are endued with power from on high.


Acts 2:32-33 (AMP)

³² God raised this Jesus [bodily from the dead], and of that [fact] we are all witnesses.

³³ Therefore having been exalted to the right hand of God, and having received from the Father the promise of the Holy Spirit, He has poured out this [blessing] which you both see and hear.


In the Book of Acts, Paul being himself filled with the same SPIRIT of PROMISE which is the HOLY GHOST laid his hands on new believers and they received the baptism of the HOLY GHOST!!!


Acts 19:1-6 (KJV)

¹ And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples,

² He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost.

³ And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism.

⁴ Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus.

⁵ When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.

⁶ And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied.


And it is the same for us!!!  When we accept Christ as our Savior, and THE LORD of our life, we need to receive the HOLY GHOST!!!  Or as some folks say, Be baptized with the HOLY SPIRIT!!!       


ALL of the new believers in the Bible received the same HOLY GHOST when GOD laid hands on them!!!  None of them were given more of the HOLY GHOST or less of HIM than any one else!!!


When you and I were baptized with the HOLY GHOST, we both received the exact same SPIRIT!!!  Neither of us got more of THE HOLY GHOST, than the other one did!!!


It’s NOT like when Johnny and Suzie argue and one says my Daddy is bigger than your daddy or my daddy can beat up your daddy!!! 


NO!!!  No matter what day or what year you received the HOLY GHOST, you got exactly the same HOLY GHOST that I got!!!  You and I have been given the same HOLY GHOST that the Apostle Paul received!!!  We have received the same HOLY GHOST that Kenneth Copeland or any other famous preacher has been given!!!    


WE ALL BEEN GIVEN THE SAME HOLY GHOST!!!  The HOLY GHOST, HE IS GOD, and just as THE LORD GOD does NOT change; HE, THE HOLY GHOST does NOT change!!! 


Malachi 3:6 (KJV) For I am the Lord, I change not…


It does NOT matter who you are or where you live, GOD is NO respecter of persons and HIS HOLY SPIRIT is the same in this day as it was in that day!!!
 

Romans 2:11 (KJV) For there is no respect of persons with God.


Romans 2:11 (AMP) For God shows no partiality [no arbitrary favoritism; with Him one person is not more important than another].


Either you got baptized with the HOLY SPIRIT or you didn’t!!!  You either have the HOLY SPIRIT or you don’t!!!   


When I ask you or someone else to pray with me, and we agree together, we have power according to THE WORD of GOD!!!  We can watch GOD move for us in whatever situation we are praying about.  


Matthew 18:18-19 (KJV)

¹⁸ Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

¹⁹ Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.


If I come to you and ask you to agree with me in prayer, our SPIRITS have to come into agreement!!!  And because you have the same HOLY GHOST that I have, if we agree on what to pray then OUR SPIRITS will agree!!!


When you and I have the same self Spirit, THE HOLY SPIRIT, within us and we begin to pray, we have power and our prayers have power!!!  And because we pray in THE SPIRIT, and because we agree together, we can watch GOD answer our prayers!!!


But if our SPIRITS do NOT agree, then something is wrong!!! 


If I come to you to get you to agree with me, and we begin to pray and you tell me that I am NOT supposed to pray with you, then something is wrong!!! 


I have the same HOLY GHOST that you have!!!  So, if you try to SHOOSH MY HOLY GHOST, if you try to silence MY HOLY SPIRIT, THEN SOMETHING IS WRONG!!! 


You have the same SPIRIT that I have!!!  So, if we are supposed to be praying together, and I try to SHOOSH or SILENCE YOUR HOLY GHOST, and tell you NOT to pray with me, then I am wrong because our SPIRITS must come in agreement!!! 

 
GOD told me that no one should try to SHOOSH MY HOLY GHOST!!!  No one should be trying to SILENCE MY HOLY SPIRIT!!!  OR YOURS!!!  When they do this, they are QUENCHING THE HOLY GHOST!!!    


GOD tells us in HIS WORD, that we are NOT to quench the HOLY SPIRIT!!!  HE also tells us that folks have to line up with THE WORD!!! 


1 Thessalonians 5:19 (AMPC) Do not quench (suppress or subdue) the [Holy] Spirit


When someone SHOOSHES YOUR HOLY GHOST, SOMETHING IS WRONG!!!  That’s NOT GOD!!!  GOD, THE FATHER, doesn’t tell GOD, THE HOLY GHOST to be quiet!!!  If someone does that to you, then PLEASE, PLEASE do NOT allow them to pray for you!!! 


You know, this happened to me recently!!!  I went up to a visiting minister and asked for prayer.  My mistake!!!  At first things seemed fine, but then this person SHOOSHED MY HOLY SPIRIT!!!  Things went down hill very quickly from that point on!!! 


FATHER GOD told me that from now on, if I am asking for prayer, and the person who is supposed to be agreeing with me, SHOOSHES me and tells me NOT to pray in THE SPIRIT, I am supposed to politely interrupt that person!!!  I am supposed to stop that person, and tell him or her, that I no longer need them to pray for me!!!  I am then to say, THANKS ANYWAY, and while I intend NO DISRESPECT, I am going to my seat!!! 


GOD also told me that I should NOT be asking every visiting minister to lay their hands on me!!!  To be truthful, none of us should!!!


Folks, you just can’t trust everyone!!! 


The WORD tells us that there are many false prophets and we are to be careful!!!  We are supposed to know those who work in our church!!! 
We are supposed to know who we can trust who we cannot trust!!!  We are supposed to know who is upright and faithful to GOD and who isn’t, at least in our own church!!!
 

1 Thessalonians 5:11-12 (KJV)

¹¹ Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.

¹² And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you


If you need prayer go to that friend that you know you can trust!!!  Or go to your pastor!!!  Or even better yet, go to GOD!!!  HE will answer your prayers!!!

GOD’S GREAT & PRECIOUS PROMISES OF PROVISION!!!

    
Most, if NOT ALL, of GOD’s children know that they are supposed to be faithfully bringing their tithes and offerings to the house of GOD!!!  But do you know that GOD has us do this, so that HE can bless us?


This should be being taught in every church all over the world, because it is NOT ONLY pleasing to GOD, but because GIVING breaks the curse that the enemy has tried to place over our finances!!!


You know, when we pay our tithes and give our offerings, GOD promises to rebuke the devourer, the destroyer that would come against us!!!  HE also commands a blessing to come upon us!!!


Malachi 3:10-12 (NKJV)

¹⁰ Bring all the tithes into the storehouse,
That there may be food in My house,
And try Me now in this,”
Says the Lord of hosts,
“If I will not open for you the windows of heaven
And pour out for you such blessing
That there will not be room enough to receive it.

¹¹ “And I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes,
So that he will not destroy the fruit of your ground,
Nor shall the vine fail to bear fruit for you in the field,”
Says the Lord of hosts;

¹² “And all nations will call you blessed,
For you will be a delightful land,”
Says the Lord of hosts.


Do you know that in THE WORD, GOD even promises to give us a seed to sow to help us get out of debt?  IT’S TRUE!!! 


The enemy of our soul doesn’t want us to give our way out of debt!!!  And he certainly doesn’t want us to give to the work of GOD!!!  He doesn’t want us sowing seeds into the ministry because he knows that GOD will bless us every time we sow in FAITH and in obedience to HIM!!!


2 Corinthians 9:8-10 (NKJV)

⁸ And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

⁹ As it is written:

“He has dispersed abroad,
He has given to the poor;
His righteousness endures forever.”

¹⁰ Now may He who supplies seed to the sower, and bread for food, supply and multiply the seed you have sown and increase the fruits of your righteousness


THE WORD of GOD tells us that when we give to others to help them do GOD’s work, ALL our needs will be met!!! 


Philippians 4:15-19 (KJV)

¹⁵ Now ye Philippians know also, that in the beginning of the gospel, when I departed from Macedonia, no church communicated with me as concerning giving and receiving, but ye only.

¹⁶ For even in Thessalonica ye sent once and again unto my necessity.

¹⁷ Not because I desire a gift: but I desire fruit that may abound to your account.

¹⁸ But I have all, and abound: I am full, having received of Epaphroditus the things which were sent from you, an odour of a sweet smell, a sacrifice acceptable, wellpleasing to God.

¹⁹ But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.


The enemy doesn’t want us to give to anyone else, especially NOT our brothers and sisters in Christ!!!  He doesn’t want us to give to others and help them out because he knows that whatever we give as unto THE LORD (with a willing and cheerful heart) will be blessed back to us!!!      


Luke 6:38 (KJV) Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.


Luke 6:38 (NCV) Give, and you will receive. You will be given much. Pressed down, shaken together, and running over, it will spill into your lap. The way you give to others is the way God will give to you.”


THE LORD loves those who give willingly and with a cheerful heart!!!  GOD tells us again that if we give little, we will receive little, but if we give abundantly, we will be blessed abundantly!!!  HE makes it plain that we can choose how much we want to be blessed by choosing how much we give!!!    


2 Corinthians 9:6-7 (WEB)

⁶ Remember this: he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly. He who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.

⁷ Let each man give according as he has determined in his heart; not grudgingly, or under compulsion; for God loves a cheerful giver.


GOD wants us to trust in HIM for our provision!!!  HE doesn’t just want to meet our needs; HE wants us to be abundantly blessed!!!  HE wants us to dream big and live life to the fullest!!!  HE wants to bless us in ways that we never even thought of and in ways that we could never have dreamed were possible!!! 


Ephesians 3:20 (NKJV) Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us


GOD wants to give us the very desires of our hearts!!!  GOD likes to give us the things that we want.  It pleases HIM to see us smile and to know that we are happy!!! 


Psalm 37:4  (AMP) Delight yourself in the Lord,
And He will give you the desires and petitions of your heart.


GOD wants to bless us and HE wants us to live a blessed life!!!  GOD wants us to have good things!!!  HE wants us to be able to pay our bills and HE wants us to be able to help others out!!!  HE wants us to be able to BLESS folks when they need a blessing!!!  HE wants us to be so blessed that our blessings run over and spill onto others!!! 


Psalm 23:5 (NKJV) ...My cup runs over.


GOD wanted to bless the children of Israel for their obedience, and HE WANTS TO BLESS US, HIS CHILDREN, for our obedience!!!  THE LORD wants us to be so blessed that our blessings chase us down and overtake us!!!  HE wants us to be blessed in every area of our lives!!!   


Deuteronomy 28:1-13 (NKJV)

28 “Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth.

² And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God:

³ “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country.

⁴ “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.

⁵ “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.

⁶ “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.

⁷ “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.

⁸ “The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

⁹ “The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways.

¹⁰ Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you.

¹¹ And the Lord will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give you.

¹² The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow.

¹³ And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them.
