There are hundreds of books out today talking about the power of the devil. Sure, they’re there, but why be so devil conscious? We don’t glorify a defeated liar! Devils and Jesus cannot cohabit in the same place. Jesus Christ lives in you! When you show up, they shouldn’t want to hang around!
The Word of God is more important than any newspaper or magazine, more important than a movie, your social media accounts or any other book you may want to read. God’s Word is the first and most important thing we should all be focusing on!
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!
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!
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!
You may be looking at healing as something phenomenal and beyond your reach. Two of the 12 spies looked at the giants in the promised land and said, “Don’t fear them, the Lord is with us! We can do this, these giants are nothing to us!” The other spies looked at those same giants with an entirely different perspective, saying, “They’re stronger than us—we’re nothing but grasshoppers in their sight!” Which perspective do you have of healing?
