RECEIVE YOUR HEALING (1) BY CASTING OUT THE EVIL SPIRIT RESPONSIBLE
And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?
Luke 13:16 (KJV)
From all we have learnt so far, it is obvious that sickness is from Satan. It does not matter the name the laboratory gave it, it is called the spirit of infirmity and it can manifest with so many names. The Lord Yahushua came into the house of Peter and saw Peter’s wife’s mother sick with what the doctor or laboratory called fever but when the Lord Yahushua touched her the fever left. (see Matthew 8:14-15). That shows you that it was a spirit behind that fever and it was the spirit that left and when it did, the resultant fever was gone too (see Luke 4:38-39). In Mark 9:17-27, we saw a person dumb and deaf but when the Lord Yahushua attended to him, we saw that it was a spirit of dumb and deaf that held him in bondage. In the laboratory, it was discovered that he was dumb and deaf maybe because of physical malfunction of organs but without any medical solution when that evil spirit responsible for that condition was cast out, he was able to speak and hear. Littered in scripture are examples that shows us that whatever your condition that it is the spirit of infirmity behind that operation and manipulation.
YOU CAN’T HAVE SICKNESS, HE TOOK IT

YOU CAN’T HAVE SICKNESS, HE TOOK IT
That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
Matthew 8:17 (KJV)
Our objective today is to open your eyes to see that this issue of sickness is a pseudo because you cannot have what was taken away. Assuming your father met you returning from the airport with one heavy luggage on your head and he took it from you and slide it into the car boot and drove off. Then the author met you some days later and you are complaining to him that this luggage is too heavy but he cannot see any luggage on your head. Yes you had the luggage before but it has been carried away by your father. It would look absurd still having the same luggage. Often times, sickness is the devil’s play on our emotions. It is not real and can never be real but the objective reality is that Yahushua HaMashiach of Nazareth took your sickness and bore your infirmities almost 2000 years ago and you cannot have it today. You need to meditate on this Word until it becomes an objective reality in your spirit. How can you have what was taken away? It is completely absurd.
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.

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.”

BENEFITS OF THE FEAR OF YAHWEH
Blessed is every one that feareth the Lord; that walketh in his ways.
Psalms 128:1 (KJV)
What are the benefits of living a lifestyle of the fear of Yahweh? Why should I live with this trembling disposition before the Lord as a lifestyle? The treasures of the Kingdom is rooted in the fear of the Lord. Without the fear of the Lord, you have no chance with Yahweh. So, all the good things of life answers to the fear of the Lord in you. Firstly, according to our opening texts, the blessings of the Lord are only for those that fear Him (see Psalms 128:1-6). That blessing includes: a. That you labour and eat the labour of your hands. There are people labouring but others are eating it in the name of sickness or diseases or one case or the other. Psalms 128:2 says, “For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee.” When you walk in the fear of the Lord, no devil can tamper with the labour of your hands. b. The fear of the Lord makes you a happy person. It ensures that the happenings in your life are those that bring you joy. No matter what the devil brings your way, it eventually ends in glory and in your favour. c. That it is well with you. This means that you enjoy good, beauty, better, bounty and prosperity. No evil occurrence. No activities of the enemy around you. d. That you are settled in marriage. No matter the curse of marital delay working in your family, the fear of the Lord ensures that you are settled gloriously and covenantly in marriage. Not just that, it guarantees your fruitfulness. No form of barrenness. Psalms 128:3 says, “Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.”
