Intercede Instead



Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
- James 5:14 

It's amazing to see how people are quick to criticize, and pass judgment on others, when the Bible says, 'judge nothing before the time'.
For example: When you see something or someone in an abnormal state, the best thing to do is to intercede for them on their behalf. Because some of them may not even realize that they are under the oppression and influence of the devil.
The ones that realizes the manipulation of the devil, might quickly call for prayers, but the devil have a way of hiding himself from the troubles people go through.

Through intercession, the devil's antics will be revealed to the individual and for those around him/her to realize on-time that this is an affliction of the devil, and to react against it in a proper way.
Some illness people take medicine for are purely spiritual, there is no way medication can work for spiritual affliction, which is the situation in most cases.
The thing is, every believer is called into the ministry of intercession, it is not limited to certain individual or ministry office. You can get started today, the reward is immeasurable.
James 5:15 says, 
"And the prayer of faith shall save the sick(afflicted), and the Lord shall raise him up(from his/her affliction); and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him."

Jesus is Lord!

Press In

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly.... – Colossians 3:16 Things in this old world aren't getting any better, and in recent times, the Holy Spirit has been speaking an urgent message to my heart. He's been saying, Press in. Draw in to a more intimate relationship with your heavenly Father. If you don't, you won't make it. If you do, you will see more glorious outpourings of God than you can imagine. That message isn't just for me. It's also for you—and for every other believer on the earth today. We are in the last of the last days of this age. Jesus is coming soon. It's an exciting time, but it's also a dangerous time. Those who don't do what the Spirit says, who don't press in to the Lord, are going to go from disaster to disaster. But those who do will defeat the disasters and turn them into glory, in Jesus' Name! Your first step in drawing closer to God is to realize that you know God first in His Word. Time spent meditating i...

Money truce.

People make reference that "The Bible says money is the root of all  evil...." The Bible didn't say that at all. The Bible says, "For the LOVE of MONEY is the root of all evil" (1Tim.6:10). You could be guilty of that sin and not have a dime. It's not wrong to have money; it's wrong for money to have you. #prosperityreality

Extremely Blessed!

A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth, it prospereth. – Proverbs 17:8 If I could give you a gift this Christmas, the Word is what I'd give you. I'd rather give it to you than a check for a million dollars. Because you can run through a million dollars real quick, but the truth of God's Word never quits—and it will get you out of situations a million dollars can't get you out of. Ken and I are just ordinary people. But when we latched on to God's Word, we latched on to something out of the ordinary, something that changed our lives. Every area of our lives. Nothing that's happened to us has happened because of us. It's happened because of God's Word. In fact, I don't even have to know you to promise you this: If you'll give God's Word your full attention—and not be afraid of His will for your life—you're going to be happier and more prosperous than anything you could ever dream up.
