SPEAK THE WORD FOR YOUR HEALING

The Word of God is God Himself. Therefore, when we speak God’s word in faith, we speak his presence into the prevailing situation. The word is Spirit, because God is Spirit and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. In His presence there is fullness of joy and his right hand pleasure forever more.

In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…John1:1

Peradventure you are reading this book and you are sick, I want you to open your mouth and begin to speak the word of God for your healing. Keep speaking it until you’re healed… God watches over His Word to perform it. Anywhere His Word is spoken, he manifests His presence. 
Declare These:
My body is the temple of God, therefore sickness, you have no right over my body. I declare that I am healed in Jesus’ name, because by the stripes of Jesus Christ I was healed according to Isa.53:5, But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. Therefore I am healed and live in divine health.

Isa.58:8, “Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy reward.”

Keep declaring God’s plans and intentions for your health. Do  not believe in the lies of the devil. The devil’s trick is to suggest to people that sickness is terminal and cannot be cured. There is not condition that has the capacity to defile God’s Word. Even Lazarus died and after four days Jesus brought him back to life. What is more desperate condition than death? No matter what the name doctors have coined for that health challenge, the name of Jesus Christ is able to set you free.

One day, I suddenly woke up with an excruciating pain in my left knee; the pain was so much that it was becoming embarrassing. I could not take anymore and spoke healing upon my leg, and immediately I became totally healed and whole. I spoke in faith, I rejected the pain , I didn’t want to manage the situation by nursing it, rather I out rightly rejected it.
“Any seed of the devil you manage, may turn out to damage you.”
Romans 10:8, “But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach;”
Always keep the Word of God on your lips, meditate upon it in your heart and it shall be well with you.

WHAT THE CHURCH NEEDS TO DO TO SAVE NIGERIA


It is no news that our nation Nigeria is in a deep economic crisis. Prices of commodities have skyrocketed to high heavens and no one seems to have a clue on what to do in a bid to alleviate the sufferings of the people. Economic experts are oblivious of the solutions to the crisis which is actually a life threatening one. How did we get to this point? Someone have asked.

Prov. 14:34 “Righteousness exalteth a nation: but sin is a reproach to any people.”

Another version says; “Justice exalteth a nation: but sin maketh nations miserable.” Douay Rheims Bible.

When you look around, you will not find it hard to see the miserable state of the people. The other day, I heard how a woman left her child as a collateral in the market just to be able to get food for the rest children. Is this not pathetic? Many more are doing all sorts of things to survive. I’d this God’s plan for such a blessed and great country like Nigeria? Of course not! How did we really get here?
It all started when men purposed in their hearts to shed innocent blood. Our politicians have sold their souls to the devil in exchange for power and wealth. When Achan stole the accursed things in the camp of Israel, the whole nation suffered. Many of our nation’s politicians killed to get to where they are today. The blood of the children, women and men murdered for ritual purposes are crying against the nation.
Joshua 7:1, “:But the children of Israel committed a trespass in the accursed thing: for Achan, the son of Carmi, the son of Zabdi, the son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, took of the accursed thing: and the anger of the Lord was kindled”

The Islamic terrorists in northern Nigeria are ravaging the land and spilling human blood like it’s that of rams. These killings are also sacrifices to their altars and the quest to dominate others.In all these, what did the Church of Christ do? Sleeping, quarrelling amongst her self, and competing for who had this or that.
“But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.” Mathew 13:25.
To sleep is to be off guard, to be unaware of the goings around, to be carried away by worldly affairs etc. The church stopped praying, stopped loving, stopped evangelizing, and so on.
God depends on the Church in bringing sanity in the society where she is.
The Church is the people of God, called by His name to represent His intents. The Bible says; “we should make intercession…”

“Mind you, a divided Church can never win a common war.”

The unity of the Church at this time is most paramount to rescue this nation from the hands of the enemies of God.
2Chr. 7:14, “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”
What does this text entails? It speaks of the unpleasant situation of the land and the remedy. This also reveals that it is in God’s heart to turn around the condition of the land.
Firstly, it says; “if my people who are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray…”
God expects the church to deal with pride. We stop priding our different denominations as the best, the largest in membership and face realities. “But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.” James 4:6

Prayer is s more than just communication with God, but puts us in deep fellowship with him. When we pray continually, we have access to His power and grace, and much more, His mind.
“Blow the trumpet in Zion, sanctify a fast, call a solemn assembly:” Joel 2:15
“Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?” Joel 2:17.

The truth is that, the true change we expect can only come from God, not man. Ordinary men cannot up turn spiritual matters.
I remember in early 2015, when God revealed to me what will become of Nigeria. This was before the elections. The Lord said that; the emergence of this present government in Nigeria will cast a dark cloud over the nation and there shall be sufferings. The devil at that time succeeded in creating division in the Church. We didn’t have a common stand, while the enemy was very united.  But the solution lies in the Church by going back the Lord.
The united is lifeline of the nation, therefore, it is important for the Church to gather in one accord and subdue the incursion of the enemy and his cohorts.
