We Are The Measuring Stick

Mark 4:24-25 says: And He said unto them, Take heed what you hear; with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you and unto you that hear shall more be given. For he that hath, to him shall be given and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

Did you catch that about the measure? What he is saying is that WE ARE THE MEASURING STICK when it comes to what we can believe and what we can receive!

Two people can hear the same scriptures, on say, healing or prosperity and there will be two different outcomes according to what we choose to believe about it.

Those that take the Word giving much study and thought to it - receiving it with joy and faith - will get what they are believing God for.

The same with the person who decides that he will read it once and "just try it". If it works, it works, if it doesn't, it doesn't and will say "I told you it doesn't work!"

They will receive what they are believing for - absolutely nothing and then blame the Lord for it.

You cannot receive beyond what you believe and you cannot believe beyond the Word you have stored in your heart. Romans 10:10

It's time my friends, to Study the Word with Diligence to show thyself approved - 2 Timothy 2:15

Go For It!!!

Can You Make a Lasting Change....In The Flesh?

You Are Given Everything You Need To Live

One of my favorite verses (and I have many) J is Isaiah 54:17.

Is says in the KJV, “No weapon formed against thee shall prosper and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.”

The AMP version states, “But no weapon that is formed against you shall prosper and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment you shall show to be in the wrong. This (peace, righteousness, security, triumph over opposition) is the heritage of the servant of the Lord (those in whom the Servant of the Lord is reproduced); this is the righteousness or the vindication which they obtain from Me (this is that which I impart to them as their justification), says the Lord."

We live in a fallen world. That means that even though God had originally intended it to be for mankind to dominate and rule, it was given over to satan when man fell in the garden. As a result, unless you have accepted Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior you are subject to satan’s rule here on the earth.

As a believer in Christ you are given everything you need to live and overcome in this fallen world. Everything satan has to offer is through deception, but Jesus beat deception and showed us how to do the same. That excites me!!

So what are weapons that are formed against us? Sickness and disease, unforgiveness, depression, debt, strife, lust, pride, etc. are all weapons satan uses to bring you down and cause you to draw away from God.

The tongues that rise up against you are those that say things like…you will never get out of this situation, you only have 3 months to live, certain things in the Word of God don’t apply today, you are worthless, you are never going to amount to anything, etc.

But, you know what? If you read that verse carefully it says those weapons will not prosper and you will prove those wrong who speak against you!

Isn’t that Good News??

I will go on to say that there is a choice that you have to make - to believe God and His Word and to trust Him in every situation. If you give in to these weapons and tongues that rise up against you, then you are ALLOWING satan to have reign in your life rather than God. And trust me it does not go well with you when you do that.

I want to encourage you that the SECOND something comes against you, let’s just say a cold for instance, you recognize that it is not from God and you use the Word against it, just as Jesus did when He was tempted of the devil. I actually use this verse and say: “No weapon of sickness formed against me shall prosper because I am a saint of God and am under His covenant of healing, for that is my heritage!” Guess what? It leaves immediately!! Praise the Lord!

Find the promises of God and write them down, study them and hide them away in your heart so that when the storms of life and the affairs of this world come against you, you will have a foundation to stand upon and to fight with.

Have a Great Day in Him!

No One In The World Is Good

No one in the world is good.

Making such a statement does not imply that one is bitter or jaded. It simply means that the only good thing that exists does not dwell in this physical world but rather in the spirit world.

He is a spirit, and his name is God.

He is an omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent being that can be challenged by none other. He is a loving God that has no limitations. In fact, God's goodness is more than t

he mind can understand and is only limited by one's capacity to receive.

God is not a Greek mythical creature that is out-dated and out-of-touch. He loves everyone very much and calls everyone his friend and heir.

God wants to bless everyone in all aspects of a life, just as He has so powerfully blessed my family.

My father has always been a very healthy individual who never had a need for a doctor. However, when he began to experience symptoms of immense bleeding, he took one of his first trips to the emergency room. The doctors diagnosed him with an incurable, fatal disease. Its name was terminal colon cancer. My family went to war not with the vicious illness that has taken an innumerable number of lives; but rather, we fought Satan.

Ephesians 6:12 states, "For we wrestle not against flesh an

d blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

We did precisely this. However, we did not fight alone. We had the most powerful spiritual warfare weapon that a Christian has at his disposal-God's goodness. God was good throughout the entire experience. When my father was diagnosed, God was good. We all had more peace in our lives than ever before. When my father underwent chemotherapy treatment, he did not experience one negative side-affect that so often plagues this form of treatment. When my father was healed, God was good. He healed my father of that wicked illness, leaving the medical staff at the hospital befuddled. We grew spiritually to a point that we h

ad not previously been.

What Satan meant for bad, God made good.

God provides mental growth and restoration for everyone that receives it.

In 2 Timothy 1:7, the Bible informs, "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

So many people live miserable lives filled with fear and depression. When this verse uses the word "us", it is referring simply to those that are believers in God.

Bipolar disease, schizophrenia, and depression are not in the vocabulary of Christians unless it involves a testimony. We are freed from such entrapments by the goodness of God. People are also gifted with supreme cognitive abilities if they simply believe in God's promise.

This verse also entirely extinguishes fear of anything, anything at all. This includes but is never limited to the fear of heights, dark, rejection, failure, or anything that is not in God's kingdom.

Most of all, God loves you.

This is the single best thing that could ever be done for humanity. He sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for everyone's sins.

Now, if one accepts Jesus into his heart, that person may enjoy all the benefits of God's kingdom.

Trade your carnal life for eternal life and the citizenship of the kingdom of pain and darkness for the Kingdom of life and love.

This is a simple decision that Romans 10:9-10 explains very clearly by stating, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

God loves you and wants you to be part of His kingdom.

A Prayer for My Marriage

A Prayer For My Marriage

Father, in the Name of Jesus, I come boldly to Your throne of grace to find help and mercy in this time of need. I come with Your Word, Father, concerning my marriage.

The Bible says in 1 John 5:14-15, This is the assurance 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.

I know Father, that it is Your will for my marriage to be healed. I know that Your will is for my mate and I to be in agreement, to be at peace, and to have a beautiful relationship.

Therefore, I have confidence that You will heal my marriage. I thank You, Father, that You were a witness on our wedding day when we made our marriage vows. I confess that my mate and I will guard ourselves in our spirits so that we will not break faith with one another. (see Malachi 2:14-15).

I praise You, Father, that my mate and I are no longer two, but we are one flesh. You have joined us together. And what God has joined together, no man will separate (see Mark 10:7,9). I know that Satan has come to destroy my marriage. But I also know that Jesus came to bring life to my marriage (see John 10:10.)

I thank You, Father, that You have given me power over all the power of the enemy (see Luke 10:19). I know that my mate is not my enemy. My fight is against the principalities and powers of darkness (see Ephesians 6:10-12).

In the Name of Jesus, I resist the devil and he must flee from me and my mate (see James 4:7). I take authority over the spirit of confusion, strife, adultery, and divorce and all the powers of darkness that have come to destroy my marriage. In the Name of Jesus, we are free from the power of the devil.

Father, I pray that You will show me the changes that I need to make. I pray as David prayed, I desire truth in my inner being; make me therefore to know wisdom in my inmost heart (see Psalm 51:6). I desire to know the truth because the truth will set me free. Help me, Father, to walk in love toward my mate.

Know I know, Father, that You are not willing that my mate perish, but that he/she will come to repentance (see 2 Peter 3:9). I pray that You will enlighten the eyes of my mate's understanding in order that they may know the hope to which You have called him/her.

I thank You, Father, that my mate will turn to You and we will serve You all the days of our lives. I thank You, Father, that my mate and I cling to one another and we love each other as Christ loves the church (see Ephesians 5:22-32).

I pray that we will get rid of all bitterness and anger and that we will be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another just as Christ forgave us (see Ephesians 4:31-32).

I know, Father, that You have a specific plan and purpose for me and my mate together. And I thank You for perfecting that which concerns me (see Psalm 138:8). Amen.

Secrets to Success Part 1

Secrets to Success
Part 1
By Mitch Mosier

The disciples asked Jesus a question in John 6:28 “What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?” Jesus answer was very simple and straight to the point. In John 6:29 He said, This is the work of God, that you believe on Him whom He hath sent.”

What did Jesus mean by that? He simply was saying “If you want to do the works of my Father you must believe on me.” What does believing on Jesus involve? It involves believing in God’s Word. John 1:1 says “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” John 1:14 says “And the Word was made flesh….” Jesus is the Word! If I believe on Jesus, I believe the Word of God!

What did Jesus tell the disciples to do? BELIEVE! He was telling them that their belief system was important. What do you believe in? Are you always looking for disaster or do you go back to God’s Word and agree with Mark 9:23 Where Jesus said, “If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.”

Let’s take a look at the “Works of God”. What are the works of God? Jesus said in John 8:29 “I do always those things that please Him.” Whatever Jesus did was the result of what His Father wanted him to do. What did Jesus do? Acts 10:38 describes Jesus ministry. “How 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.” His ministry was a reflection of the “Works of God.”

What you believe in is important! The Bible tells us how to change our belief system in Romans 12:1-2.
Rom 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Rom 12:2 And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Start today by being a doer of God’s Word. Give God’s Word priority and final authority in your life. Say “I believe God’s Word. God’s Word is true.”

Sophia Joy's Testimony

Sophia Joy’s Testimony

Hallelujah! God does not change. His Word is everlasting. It is the same today as it was yesterday. God is Jehovah Rophi, the One and Only Healer of every part of mankind; spirit, soul and body. Our family has truly experienced the healing power of God..

In July 2006, my wife and I were pregnant with our third child, a little girl. We enjoyed a healthy pregnancy until the beginning of the seventh month. My wife began to suffer with pregnancy induced carpel tunnel, gained nearly 30 lbs in two weeks with increased blood pressure. The doctors closely monitored her for pre-clampsia. One night as Cassy wrestled with sleeping, she watched Oral Roberts Ministry on television. She was introduced to the miracle-working power of the Apostle Paul through the means of prayer cloths and knew she needed to connect with the healing power of God through a prayer cloth. (Acts 19). Cassy was never able to request a prayer cloth due to premature labor.

During the delivery, my wife’s placenta separated from the uterus and our baby’s oxygen supply was cut-off for thirty minutes. Sophia Joy was pronounced dead on arrival. The neo-care staff responded immediately. During resuscitation, Sophia’s lung was perforated. She was rushed to the neo-care unit to receive emergency care. Over a period of hours we were allowed to see her. Her prognosis was not good. As we stood over our little four and half pound baby resting in the middle of monitors, wires, and tubes, the faith of Jesus rose up in us. We were not allowed to touch her, but spoke the living and healing Word of God in her little lifeless body. We began to take back that which the enemy was seeking to destroy.

The next day the neonatologist reported our baby would live but be faced with several major health problems. The Spirit wielded the Word of God deep within Cassy’s spirit, “No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises up against you in judgment shall be in the wrong.” Isaiah 54:17. My wife said under her breath, “I don’t receive this in the Name of Jesus.” At that moment, the Lord showed us that Sophia’s healing began.

This same day, Cassy’s sister came to visit at the hospital and brought an anointed prayer cloth. The Lord had met her desire for a prayer cloth. By faith, we believed this cloth was a contact point with the power of God. Our faith connected with His power and the supernatural happened. My wife placed the cloth in the pocket of her gown and carried it to Sophia each time she visited. We continued to speak the Word and offer thanksgiving and praise for the manifestation of healing, although we had not yet seen it with our eyes.

After three days, Sophia’s perforated lung healed, she began to eat on her own, and her stats began to improve greatly. Each day another tube, wire or monitor was removed. She began to gain weight and was very alert. The neonatal gist and staff were amazed at her recovery. They called her “Super Baby”, “Miracle Baby” and “Ridiculous”. Her initial diagnosed four week stay was an actual one week stay.

Sophia Joy is now almost 2 ½ years old. There is “nothing missing, nor broken.” She does not have any major health concerns. She has been evaluated and has actually excelled in areas of development. She is full of life and is truly a “joy”. The hospital officials attribute her miraculous healing to God. God is worthy of all our praise! He is no respecter of persons. What He did for us He will do for anyone. He will do it for you! (Acts 10:34) All He asks of you is to believe Him, trust Him and expect from Him. He longs to lavish His goodness and mercy on you. He has already given you everything…He gave you his Son, Jesus.
