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 (6): REACH OUT TO THE POOR

Blessed is he that considereth the poor: the Lord will deliver him in time of trouble.
Psalms 41:1 [KJV]

Let us read the context of our opening text. We continue from verse 2, Psalms 41:2-3 says, “2 The Lord will preserve him, and keep him alive; and he shall be blessed upon the earth: and thou wilt not deliver him unto the will of his enemies. 3 The Lord will strengthen him upon the bed of languishing: thou wilt make all his bed in his sickness.” To consider the poor is to think and act on the welfare of the poor; to look at the poor and circumspect his income and its impact on his well-being and from that knowledge act to mitigate their hardship. Just considering the poor is a covenant action that commits El-Shaddai to your health among other things. In the days that you are challenged in your health, what you have done for the poor can speak for you. This was the exact story of that precious woman called Dorcas in Acts 9:36-41. Job’s outreach to the poor was one of the reasons that Yahweh surrounded him with a hedge of protection so that the enemy could not assault him and his family. Your openhandedness to the poor is a strategic key to maintaining your covenant health package. This is wisdom and very crucial.

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (5): LIVE WITH A MERRY HEART

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (5): LIVE WITH A MERRY HEART

A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.Proverbs 17;22 (KJV)

According to WHO (https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/depression) “Depression is a leading cause of disability worldwide and is a major contributor to the overall global burden of disease.” Depression is simply a sad feeling of gloom and inadequacy. It is that feeling you get when a merry heart is absent. Joy (merry heart) is the fruit of the recreated human spirit that intoxicates the human heart with the presence of Yahweh and brings optimism that is not based on the things of this world. Joy (a merry heart) is medicine and is vital in maintaining your divine health package. You see Yahweh is a very wise God – the only wise God (see I Timothy 1:17). In His wisdom, eternal life came inherent in it all the qualities that is required to maintain the health of man. See Galatians 5:22-23 to understand all that eternal life came with. Joy is part of that package and it takes that joy to secrete all the nutrients to all the parts of your body with maximum benefits. No matter what you eat, without joy, it will never benefit your body. So joy ensures that your food profits your body by producing that secretion needed to digest and assimilate into vital parts of your body. That is why a merry heart is good medicine. It is both curative and preventive.

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.”

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (2): SERVICE

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (2): SERVICE

And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.
Exodus 23:25 (KJV)

We were saved to serve. The Lord Yahushua said that He was among His disciples as one that serves (see Luke 22:27). As the Father sent Him, so has He sent us (see John 20:21). He was sent to serve, He has also sent us to serve. How did Yahushua maintain His divine Health package? By taking his place in service. Acts 10:38 says, ‘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.’ That is service, isn’t it? Yahushua was going long distances just to bring the people the gospel of the Kingdom. We saw that Yahushua was committed to the gospel. Serving Yahweh in soul winning is about the best service that you can render now to the Lord. Yahweh has done everything that is required to save humanity, but unfortunately many people have not heard of this yet. Anyone that is committed to spreading the gospel and turning many to righteousness is performing one of the highest form of service and Yahweh sees to it that you are in health. John 15:2 says, ‘Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.’ Yahweh will see that you are purged of any form of impurities that could likely break down your system.

HOW DO I LIVE IN DIVINE HEALTH COVENANTLY (1): WALK IN LOVE

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
Mark 12:30 [KJV]

From today to a couple of days coming, we shall be talking about how to maintain our divine health package. You have a divine health package in HaMashiach because he took your infirmities and carried your sorrows (see 1 Peter 2:24). If he has taken it away, then he left you with divine health. Why do we call it divine health? Because it is a product of divine life. Eternal life that Yahushua HaMashiach brought, comes with it a health and well-being that no sickness can break. It is important that you recognize that eternal life was what you received at salvation. Eternal life is Yahweh’s kind of life. Can Yahweh be sick? Yahushua HaMashiach was the expression of Yahweh in human flesh. Was it ever recorded that Yahushua was sick? That life that was at work in Yahushua HaMashiach is the same that you received at salvation. That life can never be sick. That life is immune to the torments that the elements of this world has to offer. Most times, it takes our being exposed for us to be attacked. We expose ourselves when we don’t walk by the Word of Yahweh. We expose ourselves when we neglect the provisions of the Word and tend to do our own thing. But as long as we abide by the Word, it is impossible for sickness to break through eternal life immune system to afflict you with sickness.

OBSTACLES TO ACCEPTABLE PRAISE (2): COVETOUSNESS

OBSTACLES TO ACCEPTABLE PRAISE (2): COVETOUSNESS

And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
Luke 12:15 (KJV)

Covetousness is an attitude marked by inordinate desire for wealth or possessions or for another’s possessions. It is showing extreme cupidity (extreme greed for material wealth); painfully desirous of another’s advantages. Another obstacle to a life of praise is covetousness. Nothing is ever enough for the covetous. People are running helter-skelter daily, because they are under the plague of covetousness. Oh yes, it is a plague which wipes smiles off its victim’s face. The worth of a man is not in what he possesses. But what is the cure for covetousness? 1 Timothy 6:6-8 says, ‘But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out. And having food and raiment, let us be therewith content.’ Contentment is the answer to covetousness. The Holy Spirit makes us understand that everybody has what it takes to be contented. He said, “And having food and raiment, let us be therewith content.” Note that it says, “having food”, not “foods”; “and raiment”, not “raiments.” Godliness with contentment is great gain. That means contentment is your open door to great gains in life. Why? With contentment, you maintain a praiseful lifestyle, which would bring you outstanding liftings. It is impossible to maintain joy where contentment is absent.

THE POWER OF YAHWEH’S LOVE (4): SUPERNATURAL SUPPLIES

THE POWER OF YAHWEH’S LOVE (4): SUPERNATURAL SUPPLIES

And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the Lord, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.Isaiah 45:3 (KJV)

Mark 13:37 says, “And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.” There is a supernatural supplies agenda that your heavenly Father provided for you in His love. Existing in empty-handedness is an error. Financial quagmire is not for you. There is an abundance provision that has your name tagged on it. Our opening text was addressed to a Cyrus. What Yahweh is saying to Cyrus, He is also saying to Pastor Prince and to you. There are treasures of darkness where natural human eyes cannot access. There are riches in secret places stored away from the wicked and unreasonable men for you. It doesn’t matter your work or profession, lack and want is never in the deal for you. Supernatural supplies is Yahweh’s agenda for you. Supernatural supplies is supplies that comes from the hand of Yahweh through His own orchestration that is beyond human calculation. Your work is not your source of supplies. Your work is a channel but the source remains your heavenly Father and there is no dull moment in His supply system. I want you to blast poverty mentality away from your life from today. There is nothing He cannot give you in the process of time when you show yourself to be ready and mature enough for it.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (9): DOES NOT REJOICE AT INJUSTICE OR UNRIGHTEOUSNESS

It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
I Corinthians 13:6 (AMP)

How our lives and relationships will be transformed if we can just start manifesting the Yahweh-kind of love. This love does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness. What does it mean to not rejoice in iniquity? The word “rejoiceth” in the phrase “rejoiceth not in iniquity” according to KJV is translated from the Greek word chairō, which means to rejoice, to be glad, to be delighted or pleased. Think about when you are delighted in something. You may dwell on it or talk about it—maybe you even make a big deal about it or magnify it. You rejoice in it, and it makes you glad. When we manifest the love of Yahweh, we absolutely don’t rejoice in unrighteousness. We assuredly don’t take pleasure in wrongdoing. And we most certainly don’t gloat over other men’s sins nor show gladness when others do wrong or fail.

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (3): IS NOT ENVIOUS

Monday FEBRUARY 6, 2023

CHARACTERISTICS OF YAHWEH’S KIND OF LOVE (3): IS NOT ENVIOUS

…love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, …
I Corinthians 13:4 (AMP)

First Corinthians 13 offers one of the Bible’s richest expositions regarding love. Verse 4 notes that love “does not envy.” So, selfish jealousy is at odds with Yahweh’s type of love. Some Bible versions rendered ‘love is never envious’ in our text as ‘it is not envious’ (NET), ‘it does not envy’ (NIV), ‘love does not envy’ (NKJV), ‘is not jealous’ (ERV), ‘charity envieth not’ (KJV), etc. The Greek word translated “envy” is ‘zeloo’ which means “to burn with zeal, to have warmth of feeling for or against, to affect, covet (earnestly), (have) desire, (move with) envy, be jealous over, (be) zealous(-ly affect).” Literally, the sense is “to be heated or to boil over with envy, hatred, or anger.” In the context of 1 Corinthians 13, the idea is that love does not focus on personal desires. It is not eager to increase possessions. Yahweh’s type of love is selfless, not selfish. Envy is when you want what someone else has and you resent them for having it. Spurgeon says it this way “There is a spirit, resident in the natural man, the human nature of man, which is always inclined toward hate and envy, always wanting to get somewhat from other men, and always grieved if other men seem to be or to have more than the person himself has.”
