The Lord Is Able And Most Willing by Joseph Prince

The Lord Is Able And Most Willing by Joseph Prince

Matthew 8:3
3Then Jesus put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

When you see someone receiving a miraculous healing or financial breakthrough, do you ask, “What about me, Lord?” I believe that the leper who came to Jesus must have asked the same question.

He must have heard or seen from a distance, since he was not permitted to be in public places by the law, how Jesus had healed the sick. So he had no doubt that Jesus could heal him, but he was not sure if Jesus would. He said to Jesus, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.” (Matthew 8:2) He was confident of the power of God, but not the love of God for him.

Like the leper, maybe you don’t have a problem believing that God can give you your miracle, since He is Almighty God. But you are wondering if He will do it for you. My friend, let Jesus’ actions and answer to the leper settle this question once and for all. He stretched forth His hand, touched the leper and said, “I am willing; be cleansed.” And immediately, the leper was healed.

I want you to notice that Jesus touched the leper. He could have healed him from a distance with just a spoken word. He had healed others this way as in the case of the centurion’s servant and the Syro-Phoenician woman’s daughter. So why did He touch the leper?

Jesus knew that for so many years, the leper had been cut off from his family and society, so he must have been feeling dehumanized. I believe that Jesus touched him to make him feel human again, to make him feel loved and accepted again. His touch was His love language to the leper.

Can you see God’s heart of love here? Can you see how much He loved the leper? That is how much He loves you! The day that you come to know God’s heart of love and believe that He wants you blessed more than you want to be blessed is the day that you receive your miracle!

Beloved, catch a glimpse of God’s heart of love, and you will believe that He is not only able, but also willing to make you whole!

Fight Your Way To Remain At Rest!

Guess what,
I am back to taking meds.
Yes.




My hyperthyroidism has come back and suddenly have felt all the symptoms. I lost weight and my friends and loved ones are so worried. So, I have no choice but to listen.

Nonbelievers could say,
" Look at your God. You're so silly to believed that He can heal!
Tsk. Poor you. Wake up!"


I say, "Just shut up devil!"

Hahah!

You see.

Whatever you see in me are just
physical symptoms.
It shall pass!

I am healed!

God says, by Jesus stripes I am healed! So be it.

-----
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed.

Isaiah 53:5

------

This little bit of pain and palpitation is temporary.

As Christ is, and so I am in this world!
------
"Even as He is, so are we in this world."

—1 John 4:17.

--------

Jesus was never sick while He was on earth...

And so I am be in this world!

--------

I have an awesome God.
And I know He is restoring my health somewhere.

As a Believer, things like these
will happen to you.
But don't fret.

He keeps reminding us that He is always there.
Want some proof?

Here goes...

"In those days when you pray, I will listen."
- Jeremiah 29:12


Can you feel the weight of those words??

Wow!!!

Yes. Keep on praying, my Beloved. Nothi

Me?
I talked it out to Him. I talk about this and that and even ask Him what's happening.
You can try it too. It makes alot of difference.

When I went to the doctor,
Fear dominated me..
But He promised,

"So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 41:10

Now I can truly Rest in Him
because I know He is taking care of my battle.

Fight your way to remain at rest my friend. That's our only battle!

Thank you Abba, Father!

Halleluyaaaaaah!

Let The Lord Be Your Defense by Joseph Prince

Let The Lord Be Your Defense by Joseph Prince

Psalm 94:22
22But the Lord has been my defense, and my God the rock of my refuge.

Imagine being a poor widow, a stranger in the land and holding one of the lowliest jobs in society. That was Ruth’s situation, so it would have been easy for her to feel vulnerable and defenseless. But because she trusted the Lord (Ruth 1:16), He placed her under Boaz’s protection.

Boaz, the owner of the field she worked in, commanded his young men saying, “Let her glean even among the sheaves, and do not reproach her.” (Ruth 2:15) What he was saying to his men was this: “She might be a gleaner, but because I care for her, treat her with respect and make sure she is not put to shame.”

Boaz is a picture of our Lord Jesus. If you are feeling vulnerable and defenseless right now, imagine Jesus commanding His angels, “Watch over this one who belongs to Me. Make sure he is treated with respect and not put to shame because he is someone I love and someone whom I died for.”

God’s Word tells us that if God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31) No one who has set himself against us can prevail because when God is for us, His protection is upon us. That is why I have never answered any of the poison email messages which I have received in the course of my ministry.

My attitude is this: Jesus is my defense. If He does not defend me, it means that there are things in my life that are not to be defended, and I would be glad to find out about them now rather than later. On the other hand, because I take the Lord as my defense, and He defends me, what can those who are against me do to me?

When you defend yourself, you have only your two hands and your own human resources. But when you let Jesus take up your defense, He defends you with His nail-pierced hands and His legions of angels! The results will be amazing.

Beloved, the Lord is your defense and refuge. Trust Him to defend and protect you!

Lift Songs Of Praise To The Lord by Joseph Prince

Lift Songs Of Praise To The Lord by Joseph Prince

Ephesians 5:17
17Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.

God wants us to walk as wise men and women, and not as fools. (Ephesians 5:15) Now, He will not tell us to walk in wisdom without showing us how. That is why His Word goes on to say, “Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.”

So what is the will of God? The next two verses tell us how to identify it: “And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord”. (Ephesians 5:18–19)

As you allow yourself to be filled with the Spirit by lifting songs of praise to the Lord, singing or speaking (God knows some of us can’t sing!) psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, and making melody in your heart to the Lord, God promises that you will know what His will is for your situation. You will then have the wisdom to decide wisely what to do next.

I have found this to be true in my own life. Whenever I face a difficult situation, the more I think about it, the more confused I get. The more I try my best to come up with a smart solution, the further the answer seems to get from me. But when I turn away from my problem and turn to God, singing in the Spirit and praising Him, I get a clearer perspective of the problem when I come back to it later. I also find an inner prompting to make certain decisions which in the end, turn out to be better than anything I could have come up with on my own.

So my friend, lift up songs of praise to the Lord, whether times are good or bad. For when you fill your mouth with praises to God, He will lead you and guide you in all the affairs of your life. Even if you are stuck with a problem, He will show you the way to go or make a way out for you. Either way, you will get the wisdom and help that you need!

I was listening to this Audiobook
titled "Above Life's Turmoil" by Allen, James












Just for curiosity , Thinking that it's a self-help book, I've listened.

It says

"The turmoil of the world we cannot avoid, but the disturbances of mind we can overcome.

The duties and difficulties of life claim our attention, but we can rise above all anxiety concerning them.

Surrounded by noise, we can yet have quiet mind; involved in responsibilities, the heart can be at rest; in the midst of strife, we can know the abiding peace."

That's so true!

And guess what?

I am soooooo glad Jesus is in me!
Because Jesus is my Peace.

That Peace Jesus gives to me is unexplainable.
Whenever I am down, that Peace
shakes me up that I couldn't even believe it myself, I just end up shrugging my shoulders with a smile.

You know, no matter what your circumstances are right now.
Just keep it going with Jesus as your bestfriend, healer, protector, Savior.

He doesn't promise a smooth flight in between but
He surely can keep you in safe grounds.

I am here, typing this out to blog and share it with you.

I don't blog this out right now because I'm feeling so happy about something wonderful or awesome that just happened.

No. In fact, I woke up hungry a lil bit and surprised at our dog because she bit my graphics pen.
I scolded her of course.

But can you see my point?

I feel joyful. I feel peace.

My joy , unlike "happiness" lasts longer and I know this is forever no matter what.

I start to appreciate the sounds of the train. Buses. And just the fresh air that I breathe.

***smiles.

I can't explain much on how Jesus does it.
I just say it's,

A M A Z I N G!

Thank you Jesus for clearing my thoughts and directing it to You.

With You,
Even I don't have that Dream car that I wished for yet, ( heheh)

I still stand in Victory!

Because You are my Victory!

Halleluyaaaah!!

LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;

LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup;
you have made my lot secure.

The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
surely I have a delightful inheritance.

I will praise the LORD, who counsels me;
even at night my heart instructs me.

I have set the LORD always before me.
Because he is at my right hand,
I will not be shaken.

PSAlM 16:5-8

What You Are Conscious Of Will Manifest by Joseph Prince

This message from Pastor Joseph Prince today is true!

The devil is good at distracting you making you believe that you are not worthy of His love and healing.

I am experiencing this right now.
My hyperthyroidism has attacked me again.
Thoughts come running wild in my mind that it made me question Him again.

Asking Him, "Why am I not healed yet?", You said this and that, it's in the Bible, blah, blah , blah , blah.

And I just said, Abba, Father, if there's something in me that I believed wrongly, please take it away and lead me to the TRUTH.

The truth that no matter what the symptoms are telling me,
I AM HEALED because of what Jesus has done in the cross!

And you know what, you may may feel shaking here and there, but there's this "peace" somewhere that will poke you and say..."Just keep believing in Him an REST."

Wooooow!

All men get sick. The difference is that me? I have an awesome Abba, Father who will never leave or forsake me!

He has sent His Son Jesus so I can be healed and live a Victorious life!

That's my truth!
And that's what I'm gona believe FOREVER no matter what!

Get lost devil!

Get lost hyperthyroidism and be cast out unto the sea
In Jesus mighty name,
AMEEEEEEEEEN!

Halleluyah!

Enjoy today's devotional from Pastor Joseph Prince beloveds.
And
Remember, whatever it is that's
attacking you right now, may it be
your health, financial instability, relationships, career setback, etc..
BELIEVE that our God, Abba, Father will never leave you.





What You Are Conscious Of Will Manifest by Joseph Prince

1 John 4:4
4You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

If you have been to a circus performance or watched one on television, you would be familiar with the act involving a lion and its trainer. But have you ever wondered why, besides holding a whip, the trainer would arm himself with a stool and point its legs toward the beast?

The whole idea is to distract the lion. You see, as powerful as the beast is, it can be immobilized by distractions. If this man-eater is not distracted from time to time, it might just decide to maul the trainer to death!

The devil is like the trainer. He knows that you have God’s power inside you because the Lion of Judah is in you, and “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world”. So what the devil tries to do is immobilize you with distractions.

For example, he may bring to your attention a pain in your body to distract you. And you find yourself going to a few medical journals or the Internet to find out more about the symptoms. You also decide to consult more than one doctor. And because you know of someone who has the same condition, you talk to him about it.

In the end, you are distracted by the pain, the symptoms, your findings, the doctors’ reports and your friend’s experience. And you find it hard to believe and focus on God’s Word about your healing. You have become immobilized, powerless and fearful.

So the devil’s trick is to get you to focus on your condition. When you are conscious of the symptoms in your body and your findings, you will see sickness manifest. But God wants you to focus on who you are and what you have in Christ. When you are conscious that you are the healed in Christ, you will see healing manifest.

My friend, what you are conscious of will manifest. So be conscious of Christ, who is all the power of God inside you, and you will see that power manifest!
