The Curse and the Blessing

                        The Curse and the Blessing

   When Adam sinned in the garden of Eden, mankind was cursed and the whole earth became cursed also. 
Death came in. Now all living things would grow old and someday die. 
   Adam brought the curse, but Jesus broke the curse for all mankind who would simply believe in Him. 
   Jesus is "The Door" to all God's blessings. Accept Him as your Savior and death, hell, sin, the grave and the curse are forever BROKEN off your life. 

   Does that mean we won't grow old and die and never sin again? 
Actually yes and no. We'll still die but God guarantees the believer "A Long Life" along with His Covenant promise of Eternal Life with Him forever. 

   He promises to heal ALL your sicknesses and diseases AND deliver you from ALL your afflictions, as well as deliver you from the hand of your enemies and ALL them who hate you."
   He will give you HIS PEACE, His power to heal others, His knowledge, will and understanding. 
                             His blessings include,
"Power over ALL the power of your enemies, Nothing shall by ANY means hurt you, Not a hair of your head will perish, God is for you, with you and in you and No enemy can stand against you and win." (Joshua 1: 5, 9)
   Why? Because God says "You are more than an over comer. NO weapon formed against you can prosper." You now are GOD'S CHILD. He's the best Father, the best provider and protector on earth. He gives you His power to love, to give, to heal, and to bless
others. 
   All, while you learn "Sin's power over you HAS BEEN BROKEN. (Romans 6:10-11).
   God sees ALL our sins GONE, removed on the cross by Jesus who "Became sin Who did no sin, that we might become the Righteousness of God (through Faith) in Him." 
   Our Spirit man is now Holy, but our mind must "Be renewed" to SEE that sin's power IS broken. Our mind is renewed and our body is subdued, as we become more like Jesus every day. The power of God's Word "Changes us from image to image and glory to glory" by the "Washing of the water of the word" as we meditate on God's Word.
   Now when we err, and trespass (sin), we are to confess we did, by old habits and wrong desires and God says "All your sins are paid for by My Son's blood sacrifice for you. You are forgiven My Son, My Daughter. Now you don't have to obey your mind or your bodies impulses. You are free to worship Me and enter My kingdom I have prepared for you."
   
   Now all that a believer touches is blessed. God says, He will prosper and be in health as his soul prospers (studying and meditating in God's Word.) 

   The Curse has been broken for all believers, now God's hand of blessing is on all who believe in Jesus. 

   In one village in South America, all but one villager got saved. Before salvation came, they were in dire poverty, many were sick and their jail was full. AFTER salvation came, their jail was emptied,  ALL their sick were healed and their crops were blessed with epic abundance. 

   In New Zealand, one coastal city all accepted Christ and not only did they prosper in every area but even the dead sea coral came back to life. God's presence blessed their land and their water. 

  

What Are You Going Through? Part 2

                       What Are You Going Through?  Part 2

   God's will is for all believers in Christ to prosper (in all areas) and be in health. 
That means to not be weak, timid, fearful, or doubting. "A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. Don't let him think he'll receive anything from the Lord."
   We must "Believe that He is (God) and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him."

   The Word says, "Let the weak SAY "I AM STRONG."
God does not regard begging. He does honor Faith in Him. His Word says, "BE STRONG in the Lord and in the power of His might." 
   That means our faith is strengthened as we feed on God's Word, meditate on it and then act on His Word.
   The more we eat, drink, and absorb the Word, the stronger we become in faith believing. "Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God."  
   The more we do, the more we see God's perfect love in us casting out ALL fear (1 Tim. 1:7).

   The devil's going to try to wear out the saints with fear after fearful news. But those who remain strong and unmovable will endure. These are the last days before Jesus returns. 
   God wants you "Strong IN Jesus," "Strong in Faith," "Strong in Hope,"  "Strong in His Love for others." 
       

New Level of Faith Part 1

                               New Level of Faith  Part 1

   It takes a lot of faith to parachute out of an airplane for the first time. A lot of people would like to do it and even think they have the courage but find it over whelming when faced with the actual challenge.
   Today it only takes about an hour or two of training to make a jump. When I started in 1969 it took days. After about a week of training, still I wasn't 100% sure I could leave the aircraft. But on jump run a girl student jumped before me and I said to myself, "If a girl can do it, so can I."

   On scale of one to ten, it felt like the fear factor was 100.
My whole life was about to hang on the correct functioning of a few yards of nylon cloth. However once the chute was open the fear drained away and the euphoria of the moment, that I had conquered my fear and was floating quietly down was awesome. 

   Back then surplus converted military parachutes were being used.
They were heavy, about 35 to 40 pounds and they were quite uncomfortable. Today all that gear weighs about 15 to 20 pounds and is very comfortable.

   Also we had the emergency chute  mounted on the front where we could see and touch it at all times. I made about a 100 jumps with the reserve chute on front and even deployed it in an emergency. So it gave me a great feeling of confidence until one day; new sport harness and containers became "Piggyback" rigs.

   The reserve chute now was placed on the top of the back pack. 
I remember the first time I jumped this new rig. 
   All of a sudden I realized as I exited the airplane, THERE WAS NO EMERGENCY CHUTE in front of me. It was frightening. My familiar security was gone. I realized it was taking a whole NEW LEVEL of faith to continue jumping. However the advantages became wonderfully evident and led to some marvelous experiences during my 2000+ jumps.

   I'm finding in my "Leap of Faith Into Eternity" trusting my body, mind and soul to my Creator, Jesus Christ (John 1:1-3) that  there are NEW LEVELS of faith. All the "Working for" has been replaced with "Trusting In" Jesus as never before. 
   I hope you can grasp this, but God's Faith requires us to "Step out in Faith" in new ways. Peter had to step out of the boat and trust in Jesus as never before and walk on water.  

    Our faith is perfect and complete from God in our heart but we grow in KNOWLEDGE of it as Ephesians chapter one tells us.   

    


        

     
   

God said "Testify"

                                   God said "Testify"

So here goes.
   It seemed out of nowhere, my back began to hurt in the middle getting worse day by day and causing pain on my left side. 
   The side pain grew worse also and I began needing ice packs to calm the pain. Later there was pain in both kidney areas. This went on for over a month. 

   I  injured one of my vertebrae when I foolishly tried picking up a hydramatic transmission by myself as a teenager. I picked it up but when I did, my backed popped. I knew I had injured a middle place in my back which was seeming to now show up these many years later with pain.

   Jesus is my Doctor. He is my Physician. And is He ever the Greatest at healing. Because He IS "Jehovah Rapha-God Who heals."
   He has healed me of many sicknesses and diseases through the years. I contracted SARS Sudden Acute Respiratory Syndrome once and the Lord healed me in three days. 

   He healed me of Bell's Palsy on my face in one week.
   He also healed me of various sicknesses, i.e. colds, flu, amid others, too many to name. Even some, the doctors had no cure nor a name for. Yes, doctors have their place but they are "Practicing Medicine," while Jesus is the ONLY ONE WHO DOES THE HEALING. 

   The Lord healed me supernaturally of external bleeding cancer without hospitalization or medicine.  No one can tell me Jesus is not Jehovah Rapha - Our Healer.

   To continue, I believe Isaiah 53:5 "..by His stripes we ARE HEALED."  The Word says, "Resist the devil and he WILL FLEE from you." So I obeyed the Word that says, "Cast ALL your cares on Him, Trust in the Lord with all your heart" and command the devil to get away from your body, God's Holy Temple. In just weeks the Lord HAS HEALED my back and my side(s). 

   God has healed me instantly, sometimes in minutes, or hours, other times in days or weeks but He has always been faithful to heal me. If the Word says "Resist the devil.." it means, he will persist and resist you. But God is greater in you, and   "..the devil WILL flee from you."   P.U.S.H. Pray (in faith) Until Something Happens.

   SPEAK the Truth only, don't talk about the problem and preach what the devil's doing. That gives him ammunition to use against you. Declare what Jesus has already done. "By His stripes I am healed, By His stripes I was healed. He sent His Word and healed me. His Word is life to all my bones and health to all my flesh. The Lord forgives ALL my sins and heals ALL my diseases."

   I saw a boy with his broken lower leg bone sticking out (compound fracture) prayed for. The boy went home with the bone still protruding but came back the next church service with the broken bone IN HIS HAND and a NEW BONE in his leg. Praise God. God IS a miracle working God.

   I saw a man with both legs broken below the knees with doctors ready to amputate both legs. An anointed man of God came out of church to the car he was in and in three minutes, the Lord healed both legs removing ALL PAIN and he got up and walked, TOTALLY HEALED. You can't tell me there's no God. 

   Jesus healed the multitudes. He healed them ALL. There's nothing too hard for Him, no disease He can't cure and NO sickness He cannot heal.   

   Jesus is Lord (Savior) AND HE IS GOD. Jesus said "I and the Father are One." Believe the Gospel, have faith IN (Jesus)-God and I pray right now your healing springs forth speedily. 

   I see tumors shrinking and disappearing right now. There are several who are being delivered from blood thinners.
  Those shooting pains in your feet are leaving NOW.
  
   The Lord is restoring damaged neck muscles, along with thyroid, hypothalmus  and adrenal glands. Knees, hands and joints "Be healed in Jesus' name."

   Kidneys, Liver, Gall Bladder, Pancreas, stomach, and colons are all being healed NOW in Jesus' name.

    Trust God to heal you NO MATTER WHAT. There is Nothing too hard for God. "Brethren, I(God) desire that you prosper AND BE IN HEALTH even as your soul prospers (reading and believing My Word)."
