Trust In The LORD
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones. Honor the LORD with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase; So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine. Proverbs 3:5-10
Many Christian marriages fail because the spouses look to each other for support instead of looking to Jesus who is the Third Party in every marriage and the glue that holds it together! Jesus Christ alone is your source of total supply, your healing, your wealth and your success. He is the sum total of every blessing and no other! You were created to know and fellowship with Jesus above all others! You were created to walk, live and talk with Jesus about everything. He is your first love! God’s word is unchanging:
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:57
"To the angel of the church of Ephesus write, ' These things says He who holds the seven stars in His right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands: I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars; "and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name's sake and have not become weary. "Nevertheless I have this against you, that you have left your first love. "Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works, or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place-unless you repent. "But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God." ' Revelation 2:1-7
Victory in and over all things comes from Jesus Christ who is Victory, Health, Healing, Blessings, Prosperity and every good thing that we need! The greatness, the power and the glory, the victory and the majesty and all that is in heaven and in earth is the LORD’s. His is the kingdom, O LORD, and He is exalted as head over all. Both riches and honor come from Him, and He reigns over all. In His hand is power and might; in His hand it is to make great and to give strength to all. In His hand is the ability to heal the sick, and to do and give great and wonderful miracles! And the truth of the matter is that God is still with us as strongly as He was with His disciples in the Holy Land and that every single area of the world should expect the same miracles from God today that we read about in the Bible from so long ago. He is God and there is no other. God’s word is true:
"My heart rejoices in the LORD; my horn is exalted in the LORD. I smile at my enemies, because I rejoice in Your salvation. "No one is holy like the LORD, For there is none besides You, nor is there any rock like our God. "Talk no more so very proudly; let no arrogance come from your mouth, for the LORD is the God of knowledge; and by Him actions are weighed. "The bows of the mighty men are broken, and those who stumbled are girded with strength. Those who were full have hired themselves out for bread, and the hungry have ceased to hunger. Even the barren has borne seven, and she who has many children has become feeble.
"The LORD kills and makes alive; He brings down to the grave and brings up. The LORD makes poor and makes rich; He brings low and lifts up. He raises the poor from the dust And lifts the beggar from the ash heap, To set them among princes And make them inherit the throne of glory. "For the pillars of the earth are the LORD'S, And He has set the world upon them. He will guard the feet of His saints, But the wicked shall be silent in darkness. "For by strength no man shall prevail. The adversaries of the LORD shall be broken in pieces; From heaven He will thunder against them. The LORD will judge the ends of the earth. "He will give strength to His king, And exalt the horn of His anointed." 1 Samuel 2:6-10
In every situation and circumstance our help comes from the LORD, which made heaven and earth." When a real need arises and there seems to be no one around that can help, we lift up our eyes to heaven where real guidance and wisdom come from. We look to the One who spoke this world into existence and hung the earth upon nothing. God's ears are open to the cry of the righteous, and He hears, He understands and He knows just what to do. We are to have faith in God; hold to His hand. Our every care He understands. And God is not a man. He does not have the limitations of a man. Ephesians 1:19 says, "And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power!
Hence we can look to God through Christ Jesus for our complete healing and restoration, spirit, soul and body as well as for our loved ones and the restoration of all our losses. We can pray according to Paul's prayers in Eph. 1: 17-19; Eph. 3: 17-20; Col. 1: 9-12. We can rejoice in the fact that God has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus (Ephesians 1:3) and that Jesus became a curse for us so that we can walk in total freedom and wholeness (Galatians 3:13-14). And God is a compassionate God. His word is true:
Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. "Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." Matthew 9:35-38
Now as they went out of Jericho, a great multitude followed Him. And behold, two blind men sitting by the road, when they heard that Jesus was passing by, cried out, saying, "Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!" Then the multitude warned them that they should be quiet; but they cried out all the more, saying, "Have mercy on us, O Lord, Son of David!" So Jesus stood still and called them, and said, "What do you want Me to do for you?" They said to Him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened." So Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him. Matthew 20:29-34
Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, "If You are willing, You can make me clean." Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed." As soon as He had spoken, immediately the leprosy left him, and he was cleansed. Mark 1:40-42
Jesus Christ Who is the same yesterday today and forever doesn’t have a problem healing every sickness and every disease or responding to cries of "Have mercy on us” or "If You are willing, You can make me clean."He is still the compassionate One! And He is able to give victory, salvation, healing, deliverance, and prosperity no matter what the situation. God’s word is true:
This is the day the LORD has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Save now, I pray, O LORD; O LORD, I pray, send now prosperity. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD! We have blessed you from the house of the LORD. God is the LORD, And He has given us light; Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar. You are my God, and I will praise You; You are my God, I will exalt You. Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever. Psalm 118:24-29
Jesus Christ alone is and remains the only answer the men will ever need! Evangelist Peter Capil Hansen of Gospel Miracle Ministries http://www.gospelmiracle.org/ writes in his article “WHERE DID the GOSPEL GO??”:
A Desperate World in Need of the Pure Gospel!
The world is in deep trouble!
Billions of people are living in poverty around the world. About 2.8 billion people are living on less than two dollars a day. Millions are dying from starvation and diseases in the Third World. The global financial crisis has caused millions to lose their home and the world has probably just seen the beginning of a major global crisis that not even the financial experts could have foretold. The threat of nuclear war is hanging in the air and the most powerful nations of the globe are fighting for the last reserves of oil.
While some families can’t even afford a single meal on the table each day, others are addicted to drugs, gambling and alcohol.
Millions in the west are so mentally depressed that they try to escape this world of loneliness in alcohol, drugs, perversions and suicide. The world is screaming for help and solutions for a messed up society that has nothing to offer but endless talk shows and online entertainment.
People are seriously desperate for finding a deeper meaning, hope and inner peace. This world seems to have everything to offer, but in reality is more out of control morally and spiritually than ever. I can boldly say that this world needs the full gospel message of Jesus Christ. Not another sermon or conference about self happiness, but the pure full gospel of salvation. That is the one and only thing that can bring peace to the mind and restore the soul.
But how sad it is that the preaching of the full gospel has been downgraded to some cultural light gospel show with fancy stage performance and blinking lights! Where are the full gospel preachers who dare to stand up for the truth, who dare to preach salvation, hope, hell, holiness and grace. Where are those who proclaim that Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven?
The problem is that millions of people have been deceived and blinded with a feel good gospel, a light lukewarm message that only talks about happiness, prosperity, self-development and “me, me and me” instead of “Him, Him and Him!”
Where did the gospel go?
Is today’s modern church really afraid of teaching the full living gospel? Is it afraid of being politically incorrect and offending the masses? Many churches are on a very dangerous path. A path that will only lead to possible destruction. Let me point out, that if there is no gospel message of sin, grace, repentance and salvation there is zero!
And while thousands of churches are playing “seeker sensitive churches” and being politically correct, millions of non-believers are screaming for spiritual truth that can give them real hope and reality based on the word of God. The truth of the gospel will set them free, but if there is no one preaching the truth of the gospel, many will go to hell, believing in a different gospel (2 Corinthians 11:3-4) (Galatians 1:6-7) . That is the hard facts. A very good place to read and study what Jesus is saying is in Matthew chapter 24. Jesus mentions here in chapter 24 that many will be deceived by false prophets and teachers.
It is so easy for self-proclaimed prophets to make up weird crazy doctrines and get thousands of followers, because in many churches there is a great lack of Christian discipleship based on the word of God. The focus on Jesus and his teaching and discipleship has been replaced with “feel-good teachings” that totally lacks the important teachings about repentance, sin, hell, grace and holiness.
On a five week mission trip to Ethiopia recently I was scheduled to speak in different churches. In my sermon preparation I felt a deep conviction to preach and focus more on the gospel that Jesus taught and His life, more than I had ever done before. And the pastors and local evangelists were amazed and almost shocked by the clear gospel teaching, because they were not used to that!
We have to remember that the gospel is what sets us free. We need to bring the full gospel back in our churches, mission fields and to a desperate seeking world. There is only one hope and that is Jesus Christ. We have to renew our passion for being in the presence of Jesus. We must take up our cross and lay down our lives and follow Christ and be filled with the Holy Spirit. We must renew our minds daily in God’s presence. We must study the life of Jesus and the Word of God and let it become part of us, inside out.
The living word of God will change your life and you will see its powerful effects, and not only will you be empowered by his Word, the world around you will experience the saving and healing power of Jesus Christ. Make the gospel the focus of your life and ministry and tell others as well.
Peter Capili Hansen testifies he has as seen several thousand people healed from various afflictions and diseases. We have prayed in the name of Jesus Christ and seen people being healed and claimed being healed from:
Chronic Back Pain Healed, Healed Of Diabetes, Heart Condition Healed, Leg Lengthened, Sinus And Emotional Problems healed, diabetes healed, osteoporosis healed, arthritis healed, deafness healed, cancer healed, blindness healed (left eye) , bad backs, crippled legs and arms stretch out, lupus recovery, allergies healed and eased, asthma healed, colds and flu totally healed, lame in left side healed, stroke healed, severe migraine healed, anxiety attacks healed, and other physical and mental traumas healed, inner healing, spiritual deliverance/ exorcism, finding mission people, personal prophecy, healing of cyst, healing of low energy, knee pain problems healed, shoulder problem healed, neck pain healed, inner peace. Some have claimed they were healed from HIV. The greatest miracle is spiritual, when someone becomes a believer in Jesus Christ and receives eternal life..
