STOP SEEKING WHAT IS NOT MISSING

Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
Colossians 1:13 (KJV)

Whenever you are seeking for what is not missing, frustration will become your second name. Almost all of us have experienced that time when you are looking for something, (it has happened to me with socks). You just cannot find this thing that you saw a while ago. Where did this thing disappear to? You turn over almost everything in the house looking for this one thing that is seemingly missing. But all the while you were looking frantically for it, it was in your hands or pocket but somehow it was just occluded from you. I asked everybody in the house, please did you see so so and so? Then someone just looks at you and calls your attention to your hands or pocket and asked, “is it not the socks that you are looking for that is in your hand or pocket?” To your amazement and utter dumbfoundedness, you truly saw it in your hand or pocket. It may have taken you an hour of frantic searching. But fortunately, what you were searching was not missing but has always been there with you just that you couldn’t see it. That is the same case with so many believers running from pillar to post looking for deliverance. Whether it is deliverance from generational curse, ancestral curse, Satan, or whatever, you have already been delivered. Our opening texts told us so and the Word cannot be broken.

RECEIVE YOUR HEALING (5): BY DECLARING IT

RECEIVE YOUR HEALING (5): BY DECLARING IT

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.
Mark 11:23 [KJV]

There is a spiritual law that will work for you or against you whether you are conscious of it or not; whether you know that the law exists or not. That spiritual law is captured in our opening text: You shall have whatsoever you say. Your prayer notwithstanding, you shall have whatsoever you say. You know you can holler in prayer so loud and still afterwards continue to talk in ways that are not consistent with the Word. Your words can cancel your prayer. Not what you prayed but what you say after the prayer is established for you. You can come to a man of Yahweh who lays hands on you and prayed and as you come out of his presence someone asks you, “how are you doing?”. Your answer to that simple question can cancel the prayer that was just made for you by your pastor. That is a spiritual principle. You shall have whatsoever you say. If you are constantly talking sickness and disease, you will never be able to walk in divine health because you will have whatsoever you say. “I am sick” keeps you in perpetual sickness. “My head is aching”, activates the ache that the devil has been waiting for you to accept. This is very vital.

SICK? CHECK FOR UNFORGIVENESS

SICK? CHECK FOR UNFORGIVENESS

And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.
Matthew 18:34 (KJV)

In Matthew 18:21-35, an interesting discussion with Yahushua and his disciples ensued. It started by Apostle Peter asking Yahushua, ‘how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times?’ (vs 21). The Lord Yahushua answered him ‘I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.’ (vs 22). He then went ahead to tell them that the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a certain king, which was settling accounts with his servants. One was brought to him who owed him 10,000 talents and as he did not have anything to pay his debt, the king commanded that he, his wife, children and all that he had be sold and debt recovered. This servant fell down and worshipped this king saying “lord have patience with me, and I will pay you all.”(vs 26). The lord of that servant was moved with compassion and loosed him and forgave him the debt. But this same servant went out and found one of his fellow servants who owed him a 100 pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying “Pay me that you owe.” His fellow servant fell down at his feet begging him saying, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you all.” but he wouldn’t be persuaded but went and cast him into prison till he should pay the debt. When his fellow servants saw what was done, they were very sad and came and told their lord. Then his lord sent for him and said “You evil servant; I forgave you all that debt because you begged me, should you not have had compassion on your fellow servant even as I had on you?” His lord was angry and delivered him to the tormentors till he should pay all that he owed him. The Lord Yahushua concluded this story by saying, ‘So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.’(vs 35).

THE ORIGIN OF SICKNESS

THE ORIGIN OF SICKNESS

Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
Romans 5:12 (KJV)

Wherever you see death, just know that included in that death package is sickness and disease. Sickness and disease are instruments of death. That is why, you must not treat the issues of your physical health with levity. When a person sees headache for instance (Yahweh forbid, not you), that person is being toasted by death. It is the spirit of death that is knocking and depending on how you handle that seemingly harmless headache, will determine if you will join your forefathers in the grave (Yahweh forbid, not you). But we are saying that to say that sickness and disease are just the effects of a cause – sin. In Genesis chapters one and two, there was no mention of sin and consequently no sickness. But when sin came in Genesis chapter three, death was birthed and when he death came, he brought his agents, sickness and disease. It is the offence of one Adam that brought sickness and disease and death. All glory to Yahweh, because that is not the end of the story.

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (7): BY THE COMMUNION

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (7): BY THE COMMUNION

As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.
John 6:57 (KJV)

The Communion is a miracle meal. It is a spiritual meal. It is a supernatural meal. The Communion is the ordinance of the flesh and blood of Yahushua. During the Last Supper the Lord Yahushua established this sacrament as they were eating, He took bread, blessed it, broke it and gave to his disciples and said “Take, eat; this is my body.” (see Matthew 26:26). Now please recognize that there is nothing special about the bread that Yahushua took. In fact, it was part of the meal that they were eating. But the moment He took it, blessed it and said those words, it became His body. Like many of Yahweh’s dealings with us, the Communion is a spiritual supernatural ordinance, don’t ever try to figure it out with your natural mind. When you try to figure spiritual truths with your natural mind, you will go into error. Matthew 26:27-28 says, ‘27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.’ This ordinance of taking the body and blood of Yahushua is what is called the Communion.

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (4): LIVE BY THE WORD

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (4): LIVE BY THE WORD

For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.
Proverbs 4:22 (KJV)

The Word of Yahweh is the life of the new creation. You must understand that the new creation is not a normal human being. He is only a human being because his body was not changed but he is divine because his spirit was recreated and the spirit is the core of the existence of man. The new creation is a supernatural being powered by the Word of Yahweh. I Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” That means that the Word of Yahweh is what recreated us and imparted His life in us. The new creation is a direct product of the Word. There is a law that says that the source determines the sustenance. That means that if the Word was the source of the new creation, it would take living by the Word to sustain that divine life in our earthen vessels. The Word forms spiritual supernatural immune system in your body and around your life and destiny against any assault of the devil. To live in divine health, you have a part to play. That is why our topic is how to live in divine health covenantly. Covenant connotes that it is an agreement between two parties with obligations on both parties’ sides. Your side of the deal is to eat the Word and to live by it. Yahweh’s side of the deal is to ensure that the life of the Word flows into your body and into every area of your life, effecting what it talks about. If there is any failure, then, we all would agree that it is not Yahweh’s. It must be with us. We know that because Psalms 89:34 says, “My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.”

THANKFUL FOR AUGUST 2023

THANKFUL FOR AUGUST 2023

Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Colossians 1:12 (BBE)

Here at #WordForTodayDevotional, we devote the last day of every month as our thanksgiving day where we celebrate the grace of Yahweh that has seen us through the month. We do not take for granted the mercies of the Lord from the first of the month to today the thirty-first. We have had a bath of the Word of righteousness and holiness this month and we owe the Lord thanks. What is thanksgiving and what does it hold for the believer? Thanksgiving is realizing the grace and mercy of Yahweh upon our lives and returning to Him with praise, giving Him glory. Thanksgiving is returning to the Lord with a loud voice giving Him glory for the goodness and mercy we have seen. Thanksgiving is appreciating Yahweh for who He is, a great God, a merciful God, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love (see Exodus 34:6; Deuteronomy 10:17). Thanksgiving is knowing that the Lord is the source of whatever blessing we have experienced and returning to the Lord with joy, gratitude, praise and worship, giving Him glory.

WHAT RIGHTEOUSNESS OFFERS (2): BEAUTY

WHAT RIGHTEOUSNESS OFFERS (2): BEAUTY

The glory of Lebanon shall come unto thee, the fir tree, the pine tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
Isaiah 60:13 (KJV)

The place of Yahweh’s sanctuary is a beautiful place. It is made for glory and for beauty. It means that anyone that dwells around that region enjoys beauty and colour in their lives. Holiness is colourful and beautiful. Sin stinks. Adam was created a beauty to behold. His life was full of colour and glory. But as soon as sin arrives, Adam became naked. How beautiful is nakedness? Nobody on their right mind advertises nakedness. It is shameful to be naked. Purity gives birth to beauty. Nothing glorifies and beautifies like holiness. When the Church will rise in holiness and righteousness, there shall be beauty, heaven-decked beauty upon Zion. When we come to that point that men take covenant oaths, “If I perish, I perish, but I will live for the truth!” then we have arrived at the chores of the beauty and glory realms of the Church. Purity is the mother of beauty. Psalms 149:4 says, “He will beautify the meek with salvation.” What is salvation? Referring to the Lord Yahushua in Matthew 1:21, the Word says, “He shall save his people from their sins.” That means your beauty, true colour, and covenant colour emerges only when you are saved from sin. That is when your dominion and authority over sin is established, only then will your true beauty emerge. When sin goes, colour is established. I see your beauty emerging in a most powerful way!

WHAT RIGHTEOUSNESS OFFERS (1): PROSPERITY, PROMOTIONS AND HONOUR

Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.
Proverbs 14:34 (KJV)

Proverbs 14:23 says that in all labour there is profit. There is unquantifiable profits in labouring to live a holy and righteous life. Apart from the other benefits, you also enjoy divine presence continually because you are standing on the right foundation. Whereas sin brings a curse, righteousness brings blessings. Righteousness causes you to be planted in the very presence of Yahweh which guarantees your flourishing. Psalms 92:12 says, “The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.” No matter the drought in the land, the righteous shall flourish; his leaves will remain green. Just as Job flourished by righteousness, everyone that practises righteousness will flourish. Uprightness takes up. That was the testimony of Job. Job 1:1-3 says, “1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. 2 And there were born unto him seven sons and three daughters. 3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, and five hundred yoke of oxen, and five hundred she asses, and a very great household; so that this man was the greatest of all the men of the east.” Righteousness was the reason for the height Job attained. Evil must die in your life, so the glory that Yahweh has mapped out for you will come out. Job became the greatest man in the land not through crookedness or perverseness, but through uprightness and godly perfection. He was scared of evil; he never touched it.

WHAT BRINGS THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

WHAT BRINGS THE FEAR OF YAHWEH

And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken them that seek thee.
Psalms 9:10 (KJV)

The fear of Yahweh comes from the knowledge of Yahweh, which is from knowing Yahweh. The Bible tells us that the beginning of wisdom and knowledge is the fear of the Lord. Proverbs 9:10 says, “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.” As Yahweh’s presence is revealed to us physically and spiritually we stand in awesome respect of His power and majesty. The children of Israel had an encounter with Yahweh that made an impression on them at Mount Sinai. Exodus 19:17-19 says, “17 And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God; and they stood at the nether part of the mount. 18 And mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the Lord descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. 19 And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice.”
