stay on the safe path of healing

Here is today’s timeless advice for healing and divine health for life. Read the whole chapter of Proverbs four. Here are some of the verses. The key is paying attention to God’s words, listening, reading, copying, remembering them, so that they reach deep into your heart. Claim and proclaim them. Reject the bad reports about your health. stay away from those who repeatedly talk about their symptoms. keep looking at Jesus, who is the only reliable truth about your health. By His wounds you are healed.

20 My child, pay attention to what I say.
    Listen carefully to my words.
21 Don’t lose sight of them.
    Let them penetrate deep into your heart,
22 for they bring life to those who find them,
    and healing to their whole body.

23 Guard your heart above all else,
    for it determines the course of your life.

24 Avoid all perverse talk;
    stay away from corrupt speech.

25 Look straight ahead,
    and fix your eyes on what lies before you.
26 Mark out a straight path for your feet;
    stay on the safe path.
27 Don’t get sidetracked;
    keep your feet from following evil. 

where is the armor of God?

The Lord’s Spirit (through apostle Paul in Ephesians chapter six) urged us to be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might, by putting on the whole armor of God that we may stand against the wiles of the devil (6:10-11).

But where is the key? How do we put on the armor of God? Where is the armor? Here is the answer. The armor is already given. Every piece of it is already yours. Just read the following chapter, listen repeatedly, proclaim, write it down, meditate on it until it is yours in practical terms!

Ephesians 1 

New Living Translation (NLT)

Greetings from Paul

1 This letter is from Paul, chosen by the will of God to be an apostle of Christ Jesus.

I am writing to God’s holy people in Ephesus, who are faithful followers of Christ Jesus.
2 May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace.

Spiritual Blessings

3 All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms because we are united with Christ. 4 Even before he made the world, God loved us and chose us in Christ to be holy and without fault in his eyes. 5 God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ. This is what he wanted to do, and it gave him great pleasure. 6 So we praise God for the glorious grace he has poured out on us who belong to his dear Son. 7 He is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins. 8 He has showered his kindness on us, along with all wisdom and understanding.

9 God has now revealed to us his mysterious plan regarding Christ, a plan to fulfill his own good pleasure.10 And this is the plan: At the right time he will bring everything together under the authority of Christ—everything in heaven and on earth. 11 Furthermore, because we are united with Christ, we have received an inheritance from God, for he chose us in advance, and he makes everything work out according to his plan.
12 God’s purpose was that we Jews who were the first to trust in Christ would bring praise and glory to God. 13 And now you Gentiles have also heard the truth, the Good News that God saves you. And when you believed in Christ, he identified you as his own by giving you the Holy Spirit, whom he promised long ago. 14 The Spirit is God’s guarantee that he will give us the inheritance he promised and that he has purchased us to be his own people. He did this so we would praise and glorify him.

Paul’s Prayer for Spiritual Wisdom

15 Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God’s people everywhere, 16 I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, 17 asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. 18 I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.

19 I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power 20 that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. 21 Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. 22 God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. 23 And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.

Jesus' power to heal is available to all who believe

 

How did Jesus heal? What did He want of the patients? This is another key to divine health and wholeness living.
The key truth: Jesus clearly stated that He is the Physician who heals those who are sick and the God who has power on earth to forgive sins. (Luke 5:31-32) All who actually believed what Jesus said were healed.
Oftentimes He just preached and taught the multitudes and the power of the Lord was present to heal them! Luke 5:15
Here are some verses spoken by Jesus and they revealed the truth that set free!

_________Bible verses (NKJV) are taken from the Gospel According to Luke, chapters 4-6: describing the behavior, attitude, belief of the 'patients' who came to Jesus for healing.
4:32-33 a man with an unclean demon cried out in the presence of Jesus who was teaching, for His word was with authority. The man was listening to His word.
5:12 a man full of leprosy saw Jesus and fell on his face and spoke out his faith in Jesus' power and authority to heal. He acknowledged his uncleanness and need of cleansing, saying "Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean."
5:15 great multitudes came together to hear Jesus' teaching and to be healed by Him of their infirmities. They believed in the power of the word Jesus spoke to heal them.
5:25 a paralyzed man believed his sins were forgiven because Jesus said so, and obeyed the command of Jesus to rise up and take up his bed and walked back to his own house.
5:27-28 a sinner (tax collector) Levi was saved from his sins by obeying the command of Jesus to follow Him. He left all, rose up, and followed Him.
6:10 a man with a withered right hand believed in Jesus' authority to override that of the synagogue authority (based on Moses Law), and obeyed Jesus' command to stretch out his hand on Sabbath.
6:17-19 "great multitude of people came to hear Him and be healed of their diseases, as well as those tormented with unclean spirits. And they were all healed. And the whole multitude sought to touch Him, for power went out of Him and healed them all."

The patients came, heard His word, believed the word, and even touched Him (encountered His power)! Power came out of Jesus as He preached the word. They believed and were healed.

5 am lesson: Key to walking in courage and power

Jesus the Son of God had demonstrated to His disciples (and all believers who want to be His disciples) how to walk in the mighty power of God. Jesus told us plainly that no one had seen God except Him. When one sees Jesus one sees God. So His mission on earth was to show us how God is like. God is Almighty. He walks in supreme power. Jesus also walked in supreme majesty and power. Power came out of Him when patients touched Him (His clothes) by faith and they became healed immediately. Demons submitted themselves to Jesus voluntarily.

Jesus told His disciples that all who believe will do the same things that He did and even greater things. To Jesus being like Him (in word and deed) is a natural thing. Those born of God's Spirit are spirit and have been given all things pertaining to life and godliness. All that God has given to Jesus He has given to those who believe in Jesus. Like Father like Son (and sons). So why are we not seeing this supernatural and transformational change in many of us? The distinct manifestation of the Son of God in us?

Today's message for the 5am class is: the key to living and walking in His power. The key is in Jesus. Thus we are on the right track when we continue to read the word of God revealing Jesus to us.

Jesus has revealed two of His secrets to success:

Success Key one: Walking in the Light.

He announced that He was the true Light that gives light to every man in the world. (John 1:9) He commanded His disciples to take heed that the light which is in them is not darkness. (Luke 11:33-36) He warned them of the dark forces behind the hypocrites -namely Pharisees, scribes and lawyers (symbol of religiosity in appearances and not in truth and motives; in flesh and not in spirit) of that generation which He called evil and perverse. (Luke 11:37-54; Matt.15:1-20; 16:1-6)

What is the spirit behind the hypocrites? The spirit of the world. They were blinded and dull and hardened with worldly philosophy (which runs on natural laws). They just could not see or understand the supernatural laws that Jesus had demonstrated in reality. God is supernatural. No man can possibly understand the matters of God without Jesus. But their jealousies and covetousness (which is idolatry) had hardened them further, even to the point they were willing to perish forever.

Jesus summed up their depraved condition: “Men loved darkness rather than light because their deeds were evil. But everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed.” (John 3:19-20)

Jesus Himself was undeterred by such dark hatred and opposition. He continued to walk and operate in the Light of God. He manifested God's Light.

“But he who does the truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be clearly seen, that they have been done in Go.” (John 3:21) Only those who do the truth can come in the Light of God and the deeds are done in God! Nothing can be more powerful than deeds done in God! This is the success key of Jesus -doing everything in God's Light, that is, in God. God is Light and in Him is no darkness at all. (1 John 1:5)

What does this mean to those who want to have this success key? The answer is in 1 John 1:6-10. (Read the whole passage and meditate and pray)

1 John 1:7 “But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.”

Success Key two: Walking in understanding of the matters of God.

One thing that Jesus repeatedly told off His disciples was their not understanding what He told them about the matters of God, that is, the Kingdom of God.

He demonstrated how the Son of God has the power over natural matters: walking on water, calming the wind and sea, multiplying (without limit) food stuff out of the unseen resources in heaven, making demons (evil spirits) tremble and submit to Him, commanding (by mere words) physical things to happen (healing, deliverance, giving life back to the dead etc.). Power was evident in Him. Even King Harod admitted. Sick people touched the hem of His garment and were made well.

Why did the disciples not use this power when they were alone? They just could not understand the supernatural matters, the matters of God's Kingdom then. The key word is 'understanding'.

That is why Jesus spent a lot of time teaching them and all who followed Him at that time about the Kingdom of God and how it operates. Jesus was very clear about the way it functions. He is from above and He has seen how it operates in the supernatural realm. He knows it is real.

When Jesus sent out his disciples two by two to preach the Gospel, calling for repentance, healing the sick, casting out demons, saying the Kingdom of God was near, He gave them the power of God through His word. He instructed them by word and His word came to pass. They merely obeyed and witnessed that indeed what Jesus had spoken came true.

After Jesus ascended into heaven the disciples continued to obey and waited for the power from above, the Holy Spirit. Indeed the power came as told. After they received the baptism of the Holy Spirit their spiritual eyes were opened and they had spiritual understanding of the whole Kingdom of God message. They were transformed from a bunch of fearful humans to overcomers (as in Revelation 12:11).

Today, how do believers receive such supernatural understanding of the kingdom of God?

GUIDE ONE: ASK! (Luke 11:9-13)

11:9 Ask, seek, knock

11:13 how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!

GUIDE TWO: PRAY! (Ephesians 1:17-23)

17 pray for the Spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of God

18 the eyes of your understanding being enlightened

19 know the greatness of His power toward those who believe

20-23 know the power in Christ. He is our head. We are His body! We can be filled with His fullness！

For this nation’s heart has grown gross (fat and dull)

The Lord says, " For this nation’s heart has grown gross (fat and dull), and their ears heavy and difficult of hearing, and their eyes they have tightly closed, lest they see and perceive with their eyes, and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears, and grasp and understand with their heart, and turn and I should heal them."

Amplified Bible (AMP) Matthew 13:1-23

13 That same day Jesus went out of the house and was sitting beside the sea.

² But such great crowds gathered about Him that He got into a boat and remained sitting there, while all the throng stood on the shore.

³ And He told them many things in parables (stories by way of illustration and comparison), saying, A sower went out to sow.

⁴ And as he sowed, some seeds fell by the roadside, and the birds came and ate them up.

⁵ Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil; and at once they sprang up, because they had no depth of soil.

⁶ But when the sun rose, they were scorched, and because they had no root, they dried up and withered away.

⁷ Other seeds fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them out.

⁸ Other seeds fell on good soil, and yielded grain—some a hundred times as much as was sown, some sixty times as much, and some thirty.

⁹ He who has ears [to hear], let him be listening and let him ^[a]consider and ^[b]perceive and comprehend by hearing.

¹⁰ Then the disciples came to Him and said, Why do You speak to them in parables?

¹¹ And He replied to them, To you it has been given to know the secrets and mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.

¹² For whoever has [spiritual knowledge], to him will more be given and he will ^[c]be furnished richly so that he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

¹³ This is the reason that I speak to them in parables: because ^[d]having the power of seeing, they do not see; and ^[e]having the power of hearing, they do not hear, nor do they grasp and understand.

¹⁴ In them indeed is ^[f]the process of fulfillment of the prophecy of Isaiah, which says: You shall indeed hear and hear but never grasp and understand; and you shall indeed look and look but never see and perceive.

¹⁵ For this nation’s heart has grown gross (fat and dull), and their ears heavy and difficult of hearing, and their eyes they have tightly closed, lest they see and perceive with their eyes, and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears, and grasp and understand with their heart, and turn and I should heal them.

¹⁶ But blessed (happy, fortunate, and ^[g]to be envied) are your eyes because they do see, and your ears because they do hear.

¹⁷ Truly I tell you, many prophets and righteous men [men who were upright and in right standing with God] yearned to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

¹⁸ Listen then to the [meaning of the] parable of the sower:

^19 [h]While anyone is hearing the Word of the kingdom and does not grasp and comprehend it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is what was sown along the roadside.

²⁰ As for what was sown on thin (rocky) soil, this is he who hears the Word and at once welcomes and accepts it with joy;

²¹ Yet it has no real root in him, but is temporary (inconstant, ^[i]lasts but a little while); and when affliction or trouble or persecution comes on account of the Word, at once he is caused to stumble [he is repelled and ^[j]begins to distrust and desert Him Whom he ought to trust and obey] and he falls away.

²² As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears the Word, but the cares of the world and the pleasure and delight and glamour and deceitfulness of riches choke and suffocate the Word, and it yields no fruit.

²³ As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears the Word and grasps and comprehends it; he indeed bears fruit and yields in one case a hundred times as much as was sown, in another sixty times as much, and in another thirty.

Watchman's Prayer:  Ephesians 1:17-23 Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁷ [For I always pray to] the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, that He may grant you a spirit of wisdom and revelation [of insight into mysteries and secrets] in the [deep and intimate] knowledge of Him,

¹⁸ By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones),

¹⁹ And [so that you can know and understand] what is the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His power in and for us who believe, as demonstrated in the working of His mighty strength,

²⁰ Which He exerted in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His [own] right hand in the heavenly [places],

²¹ Far above all rule and authority and power and dominion and every name that is named [above every title that can be conferred], not only in this age and in this world, but also in the age and the world which are to come.

²² And He has put all things under His feet and has appointed Him the universal and supreme Head of the church [a headship exercised throughout the church],

²³ Which is His body, the fullness of Him Who fills all in all [for in that body lives the full measure of Him Who makes everything complete, and Who fills everything everywhere with Himself].

The end times book -the Power of God's Word in Healing

End Times Book for Divine Living: “The power of God’s Word in Healing” is a gem for all who seek to live the abundant life as a son of God, that Jesus (the Son of God Himself) has promised.
The watchman was urged to read one testimony in this book during a prolonged struggle with back pain in which the watchman was unable to lie down and once lied down he was unable to get up. The pain came only when he tried to lie down or get up. He dreaded to sleep despite his tiredness. Once he manged to lie down and sleep he dreaded rising the following morning! It was a torment. He shared this with someone and she asked him to read one of the live testimonies in this book. He read obediently.
He read the detailed testimony of a man who had a terrible motor accident on 24th January 2011, in which he broke four broken bones: two ribs, his right shoulder blade and the humerus bone at the top part of his right arm. The man did not go for operation. Instead he relied on the word of God to heal him. He was completely healed of his external and internal injuries. The watchman had seen him personally a few days after his accident in the church and also after he was completely well. This time when he himself was in severe pain, he was urged to read this book again.
He read of how the man received word from the Lord and believed. He was healed accordingly, just the lord has promised in Psalm 107:20 “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
When the watchman read one verse, “For we are members of His body, of His flesh and of His bones” (Ephesians 5:30), he knew the verse was sent for him. so he received and proclaimed this verse by faith over his own flesh and bone. He then went to sleep. He got up feeling significantly better. For the first time in about ten days he could rise up without having to struggle in bed for about an hour! After he repeated this action of faith for a few times, he woke one day and found that he was completely healed!
Today someone again asked him to read all the testimonies again carefully. He believes this message is from the Lord. More and more people he knows are suffering all sorts of symptoms (many of which could not be traced to any identifiable diseases). A brethren in Christ suffers from exactly the same unusual pain at the same spot and the pain moves in the same direction as another brethren suffers. The two persons are in two entirely different professions and have very different lifestyle. It is not an occupational or lifestyle disease! In both cases, the use of the word of God relieves and heals.
___________________Here are some excerps from the book:
From the back cover:  He sent His word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. (Psalm 107:20)
If only God’s people knew the power of God’s word. How differently they would live.
By His word, God created the heavens (Psalm 33:6); by the word of His power, Yeshua upholds all things (Heb 1:3). The word of God is life and spirit (John 6:63) and it is truth that sets us free and sanctifies us (John 8:32;17:17). The word of God is quick, powerful and sharp (Heb 4:12). It has the power to transform lives.
__________From Chapter One- The power of the word provided:
Real power is in the word of God.
Matthew 8:5-10 (NKJV) Jesus Heals a Centurion’s Servant ⁵ Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him, ⁶ saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.” ⁷ And Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” ⁸ The centurion answered and said, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed. ¹³ Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go your way; and as you have believed, so let it be done for you.” And his servant was healed that same hour.
The centurion just believed in Yeshua (Jesus) speaking a word and his servant was healed that same hour. What happened when the centurion chose to believe that there was power in just a word from Yeshua? He experienced the miracle of God for the healing of his servant.
—————————————————–As He (Jesus) taught, a man with an unclean spirit manifested. Just listening to Yeshua caused the enemy to tremble. Yeshua cast out the spirit and the man was set free.
Who was Yeshua that spoke with such authority that even unclean spirits obeyed Him?
Yeshua, the Son of God is also called the Word of God. The Word of God is God. (John 1:1, 14; Rev 19:13)
He sent His word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. (Psalm 107:20)
I believe that God is saying that He sent His Son Who is the Word of God to heal and to deliver. The only way to God’s healing is through the Son… God’s way of healing is always perfect and the best. Only He can bring real and complete healing to people and to nations through his spoken and written word, by the Spirit.
Only God can heal the total man.
Why is there no complete healing apart from the cross and the word of God? Firstly, the world’s healing is focused only on the physical realm, that is, only on the body. But the healing from God is complete because it deals with the total man. Man is made up more than the body. He is body, soul and spirit.
—————————–Excerpts from testimonies in this book:
“The Spoken Word of God Brings Healing” (by sister Faith)
I lay in a pool of blood with my arm broken. One end of the broken bone, about two inches long, stuck out from the bend in my left elbow. I didn’t scream or cry as I found comfort and peace in the Lord.
When my husband returned home he asked me what I wanted done.
I said, ‘Yes, I want to be in the church.’..as I insisted..he reluctantly brought me there. During the drive…a passage from Ezekiel 37 kept coming to my mind,speaking to me afresh. It was about how dry bones lived. But I told the Lord, “My bone is not dry; it is alive.” I just kept claiming the word of God for my condition. Ezekiel had commanded the bones to join back and the Lord had revived them into a great army.
I had had awesome encounters with God’s healing power before, which was why I decided not to go to the hospital. It was not about how big or small my faith was; it was about believing the word of God could bring healing, including joining broken bones.
Thus, when my arm broke on 20th February 2010, I simply surrendered  my life to Him (Yeshua). I felt so secure in Him.
She (Pastor) told me to tell the enemy that in spite of my condition I would still lift up my hands and worship God. I did just that.
AS Pastor prayed and commanded the protruding bone to go back into my arm, it went back in an an inch! We saw the miracle taking place before our very own eyes. My own family was there to witness the whole process.
Later, Pastor asked me to pray and command the snapped bones to align and connect again. She reminded me that God had in His word given us the authority even to speak to bones.
I continued to command my bones to heal, basing my faith in the word of God, and its power to heal. On 2 March 2010, the bone went in completely. No more did any bone stick out from my flesh.
Between 16-29 September 2010, another amazing thing happened. A small fragment of bone came out of the bend of my elbow little by little and eventually, on 28 September, it dropped off and the next day, the hole completely closed.
I was practically pain-free from the time of my fall…till the day the bone went in completely and the hole in my flesh closed.
I believed that Yeshua had already paid the price for our sin and taken our pain at Calvary, we can defeat pain today without taking any painkiller.
It was also incredible that I had an open wound all that time and never suffered any infection. Through out the entire experience, I did not use any sling, cotton gauze or bandage. I did not go for therapy or do arm exercise.
As the word of God in Isaiah 53:4-5 states:
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.
The Lord Yeshua did more than heal my physical body, He also restored my marriage.
All the miracles that we encountered transformed our lives, our walk with God and was made possible only by the power of His word and His promises in the Holy Bible.
