God doesn’t change, but OUR perspective of His ability and His bigness does. The size of a person’s God is reflected in the types of prayers he prays. Our prayers are more a reflection of our condition than of God’s ability. The only way to get a bigger God is see through His eyes!
You don’t need to fight against what Jesus has already defeated for you—but you do have to learn from God’s Word everything that you’ve been given. How will you ever receive and walk in what you don’t even know you have?
The devil will know you if you take a stand. An ambassador doesn’t have to pray to act as an ambassador. He doesn’t need to pray to exercise his authority, all he needs to do is act like who his government says he is. An ambassador doesn’t need to pray to stamp your passport or approve your visit. No, he or she has the power to act, and they don’t hesitate to do it. Don’t wait on heaven anymore! It’s time to act on who you are in Christ!
“Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever” (Hebrews 3:8). He forgave sinners in the Bible, and forgives sinners today. He restored the deaf and lame people in Jerusalem, and restores the deaf and lame now where you live. He heard the prayers of people in that day, and hears your prayer in this day. He blessed people then, and still blesses people today!
Your healing is already paid for! Jesus bore your sicknesses and carried your pains, and by His stripes you ARE healed (Isaiah 53:5; 1Peter 2:24). The work has ALREADY been done for you. The price has ALREADY been paid. And when the revelation and understanding of this truth becomes stronger and more real to us than the symptoms trying to defy it, we will walk in not just healing, but divine health!
“Lord Jesus, THANK YOU that You went to the cross and took away all of my sin. You took every form of sickness and disease upon Yourself, and You died for me. Now I see every sin, failure, fear, and problem, every weakness, sickness, tumor, and autoimmune disease laid upon You 2,000 years ago. Lord Jesus, I know I am crucified with You, and now I live, yet not I, but You are alive in me! Thank You that I have exchanged my old life and my old body for YOUR life and YOUR health! I have come out of the grave and am now saved, healed and delivered! I am a child of the living God, and I thank You that I have no fear of tomorrow, I have no fear of any diagnosis, and I have no fear of failure or sin, because I am in You and You are in me!”
When Jesus sent out the disciples, He told them the solution He planned for sick people. What was it? Their hands. Now, YOUR hands are a vehicle of His power, because He lives in you! Your hand is His hand, because in Christ, you walk in the same power and authority He did in the earth!
When Jesus called Lazarus forth out of that tomb in John chapter 11, as soon as He called him forth He said, “unwrap him and let him go.” Why is this important? Because many believers are still bound up in the thinking and habits of the old sin nature, instead of putting on the new man we have become in Christ! If you are in Christ, you have not only been brought back from the dead into a brand new life, you have been unwrapped and transitioned into a new kingdom!
In every aspect of natural life, the power of life is found in seeds. A farmer doesn’t need great faith to see a crop or harvest, he just needs enough good sense to plant his seeds. He doesn’t need any power or anointing to farm, all he needs is enough sense to put the seed in the ground. A farmer doesn’t check the soil to see if the soil is doing its job, He just casts the seed. God’s Word is a spiritual seed full of potential, and when put in the good ground of man’s spirit, it will always grow and produce the image and likeness of Christ!
