Jesus is above my little headache!
Right now, as I'm typing this blog, I have a little headache that won't go away for two days. This is part of my menstration cycle.
Few years back, everytime I had this inevitible moment, I can say that my life back then was terrible.
As far as I can remember, my menstration was giving me soooo much pain from head to toe. That everytime that I had it, I would wish that I was dead.
I get sick, feeling all the pains in my body, throw up and bang my head on the wall, pulling my hairs off to divert the pain and just lie down on bed all day. I had no life!
I heard women also experiencing the same things. So out of my innocent mind and lack of knowledge of God's truth. I took it as normal.
But then, as it happened to me every month...I got bored of getting worse,
I said to myself," This can't be happening! There must be a solution somewhere!"
So I asked God to lead me to the answer.
I thought, the solution was a certain medicine, lifestyle, diet or anything.
But I was wrong.
The solution was....
JESUS!!!
Yes!
Forward to this day...(I don't mean to sound so religious)
I can say, Jesus has healed me!!
As I learnt this truth everyday, it has stopped me from wondering anymore.
Wondering if I'm gona get healed or not.
You see, even if right now I have a little headache, that doesn't mean
God is lying to His promises of healing and wholeness to His children.
I'll show why I'm so sure about it.
As it is written in
Matthew 8:14: “Himself took our infirmities and bear our sickness."
And in Isaiah 53:5 reads,
“But He was wounded (pierced) for our transgressions (Breaking the law), He was bruised (crushed, punished) for our iniquities (sins); the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed!"
Now what to do?
What you should do?
Me?
I will speak to my little headache like this,
" headache, you don't have the right to stay in my body so now
I curse you down to your roots and command you to leave my body now!
Go away and be cast down unto the sea! Don't ever come back because my body is holy and this body belongs to the Lord! This I pray in Jesus mighty name. Amen!
You see, Jesus' name is above all names.
Jesus is above my little headache..He has crushed it down long time ago so
why must I acknowledge its presence !
Now, I have learnt to speak only of Life and not death!
"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."
- Jesus (John 10:10)
That's why Jesus said, "it is finished!"
Healing is one of my inheritance that I received from accepting Jesus as
my savior. I shall keep claiming it no matter what happens till the day He comes back!
Thank you Jesus!
You are an awesome savior!
Halleluyaaaaaah!
Goodnight everyone...
It's 11.15pm, Sunday here in Singapore.
Be blessed....and smile because beautiful Monday is coming..
Wooohooooo!!!

How The Holy Spirit Helps Us by Joseph Prince
How The Holy Spirit Helps Us by Joseph Prince
Romans 8:26
26Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
The Holy Spirit is not inside you to point out your faults or nag at you when you do wrong. God’s Word tells us that He is inside us to help us in our weaknesses. In areas where we are without strength, He is there to help us. When we don’t know what to pray, “the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered”.
Now, don’t read the verse and say, “Well, I don’t know what I should pray for, and since the Holy Spirit makes intercession for me, I will leave the praying to Him.”
If the Holy Spirit, without our participation, makes intercession for us, then every Christian would be living victorious lives automatically! But we know that there are many Christians who don’t seem to be walking in the fullness of God’s blessings. So obviously, Romans 8:26 is not saying that. What is it saying then?
In the first part of the verse, the word “helps” is sunantilambanomai in the original Greek text. It means “to take hold together against”. Now, “together” means that our participation is required. In other words, the Holy Spirit sunantilambanomai or takes hold together with us against the problem.
So if you just sit back and don’t take hold of the problem, the Holy Spirit has nothing to “take hold of” with you. If you don’t pray, He has nothing to pray. If you keep quiet, then even if He wants to pray through you, He can’t. But when you release your prayer in tongues, you are actually allowing Him to pray through you. And He will take hold together with you against the problem, and pray the perfect prayer through you because “He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God”. (Romans 8:27)
And you can be confident that when you ask anything according to the will of God, He hears you. And if you know that He hears you, whatever you ask, you know that you have the petitions that you have asked of Him! (1 John 5:14–15)

Jesus’ Blood Stops Evil In Its Tracks by Joseph Prince
Jesus’ Blood Stops Evil In Its Tracks by Joseph Prince
Leviticus 1:11
11He shall kill it [the burnt sacrifice] on the north side of the altar before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s sons, shall sprinkle its blood all around on the altar.
The north of Israel is a source of evil for the nation. It was from Israel’s north that destruction poured forth. (Jeremiah 1:14–15) Israel’s enemies always came from the north. (Jeremiah 6:1, 22–23) The north is thus a picture of evil in the Bible.
Interestingly, the animal for the burnt sacrifice was killed “on the north side of the altar”. The burnt sacrifice speaks of Jesus who gave Himself as “an offering and a sacrifice to God” for us. (Ephesians 5:2) Calvary, where Jesus was crucified, and the Garden Tomb, where His empty tomb is, are located to the north of Jerusalem. In other words, Jesus died in the north, from where evil comes against His people.
This means that Jesus’ death stops evil in our lives when we, who are priests of the Most High God (Revelation 1:6), speak His blood over our lives, just like how Aaron’s sons sprinkled the blood of the burnt offering all around on the altar.
This was the case for a church member who was serving in the army. He testified about how God preserved His life when a thunderstorm struck while he was carrying out sentry duty in a tower in his army camp. The rain kept him stranded in the tower which had a metal-framed window.
Suddenly, a bright purplish flash lit up right next to him, stunning him completely and almost throwing him off balance. A bolt of lightning had struck the lightning rod on the roof and the electricity was conducted through the metal-framed window causing the purple flash. But the blood of Jesus on him protected him from harm!
Praise Jesus, whose blood stops evil in its tracks! It does not matter what the devil sends your way. As long as you are covered with the blood of Jesus, no evil can harm you!

The Mind Of Christ Doesn’t Grow Old by Joseph Prince
The Mind Of Christ Doesn’t Grow Old by Joseph Prince
1 Corinthians 2:16
16... we have the mind of Christ.
“Oh dear, my memory is not as good as it used to be. I must be getting old.” Have you heard that before? Maybe you have even said it yourself a couple of times! But who says that as you grow older, you are supposed to forget things?
When the late Reverend Kenneth E Hagin was in his eighties, he was still healthy and strong. This amazing man of God would run around the platform as he preached. And those who have heard him preach would tell you that he had an amazing memory with which he could recall specific details such as the day of the week that a specific date fell on and even the time. Even at that age, the man’s memory was superb!
He once shared how he had started to forget things when he was in his fifties. He had read a medical journal which said that every day millions of cells in our brains die. He didn’t realize it, but those words got into his spirit and he started to forget things.
So he asked the Lord, “What is happening to me?” And the Lord said, “You read that article and you believed it.” He repented and asked the Lord what he should do. The Lord said, “Confess My Word. My Word says that you have the mind of Christ, and the mind of Christ never forgets.” He started to confess that he had the mind of Christ and that was how his memory remained sharp for the rest of his life.
My friend, the Word of God says that you have the mind of Christ. The mind of Christ is not old, slow or forgetful! I don’t care how old you get. You don’t have to become forgetful. Don’t believe and confess what medical science or your friends say. Believe and confess the Word of God which brings life.
The power of life and death is in your tongue. (Proverbs 18:21) So use your tongue for life. Don’t sit around saying, “I am getting old and forgetful.” Say, “I have the mind of Christ. My mind is sharp and quick because it is the mind of Christ!” Believe it, confess it, and see your thinking and memory live up to it!

No More Sleepless Nights By Joseph Prince
No More Sleepless Nights By Joseph Prince
Psalm 127:2
2It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows; for so He gives His beloved sleep.
Are you one of those who have trouble sleeping at night? Perhaps just this morning you said, “I was up the whole night — my boy was running a high fever,” or “I slept for only two hours — I was awake polishing up my presentation,” or “I couldn’t sleep at all — I was worried about the bills that are piling up.”
God “gives His beloved sleep”. Who are His beloved? You and I! Because we are in Christ, we are His beloved. (Ephesians 1:6, 2 Thessalonians 2:13)
God says, “It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows…” In other words, it is pointless to worry and lose sleep because the truth is, “Unless the Lord builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the Lord guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.” (Psalm 127:1)
So let God be the one who builds your career and watches over your financial investments. Let Him be the one who guards your health, marriage and children. Don’t worry and stay up late as if you are the source of the increase, or the one who has the power to make things happen and save the situation. No, God is the one and He says to you, “My beloved child, throw that care to Me and go to sleep.” And while you are sleeping, He is working on your situation. He, who neither slumbers nor sleeps (Psalm 121:3–4), works the night shift for you as you sleep!
But because we are such doers and performers, it is hard for us to let go and let God take over. But when we actually do, casting all our cares, anxieties and worries once and for all into His hands, we will see how He cares for us affectionately and watchfully. (1 Peter 5:7) We will see Him taking care of our problems and working things out for good. (Romans 8:28)
Beloved, trust your Father’s love for you. Cast your cares on Him and have no more sleepless nights!

Forgiveness and Healing From Jesus
When Jesus took our punishment on the cross, it did not just bring us forgiveness, it also brought us healing.
At the cross, Jesus bore our sins and our sicknesses. And so healing, like forgiveness, is not a promise. It is the blood- bought right of Christians!
Because of what He did at the cross, we do not just have forgiveness, we also have healing. Forgiveness and healing go hand in hand.
The faith that you have for forgiveness is the same faith that will bring your healing.

God Doesn’t Remember How Bad You Were by Joseph Prince
God Doesn’t Remember How Bad You Were by Joseph Prince
Hebrews 8:12
12For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
Perhaps you have heard people say of others: “Oh, if only you had seen my husband in the early years of our marriage. He had such an explosive temper that I used to seek shelter in my mother’s house!”
“No one would have ever guessed that she had such a promiscuous past.”
“As a young boy, he would always lie through his teeth and not even bat an eyelid!”
Man looks at you and remembers what you were like in the past. But when God looks at you through the new covenant, He declares, “I will be merciful to your unrighteousness, and your sins and lawless deeds I will remember no more.”
He states it plainly in His Word as if to assure us: “When you come to Me, don’t think that I am thinking about your sins. Don’t think that every time I look at you, I am reminded of your sins. Not only am I not keeping a record, but I am also not mindful of your failures and shortcomings. I am telling you that I will remember your sins no more, never again!”
God can say that all our sins He remembers no more because there was a time when He remembered them and punished every one of them — in the body of His Son at the cross. He punished every single one of them until Jesus cried out, “It is finished!” (John 19:30) That is why today, God can justly say, “Your sins I will remember no more.”
We all know that we sin from time to time. But the good news is that all our sins have already been dealt with at the cross. They have been washed away by Jesus’ blood. Now, when we come into God’s presence, He sees us without our sins. So beloved, forget your past failures. Believe that God remembers your sins no more and be the righteous man that you already are in Christ!
