Applying Math To The Word For Divine Healing

Applying Math To The Word For Divine Healing

When some preach the Word, faith ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐ฌ by hearing.
When some preach the Word, faith ๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ฌ by hearing.

If what you are hearing causes faith to leave, get up and leave that place and go into the Word of God on your own.

So then faith comes by ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐ , ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐›๐ฒ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฐ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐†๐จ๐. - Rom 10:17

Some say that it should be the word of 'Christ'. Well, it depends on your translation. In the Greek, some use Strong's G5547 (Christ) while some use Strong's G2316 (God). To me, it doesn't matter, since Christ is the Word of God made flesh (Jn 1:14) and He is God (Jn 1:1). As you long as you know how to interpret the New Covenant, it won't make a difference.

Now faith is the ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐›๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ง๐œ๐ž of things hoped for, the ๐ž๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž of things not seen. - Heb 11:1

The word 'substance' is like a title deed to a promise. Since we are talking about divine healing, the 'substance' is ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐ž๐ž๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ . The word 'evidence' is the proof. ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐  is not meant to be seen.

Using Math, we substitute Rom 10:17 into Heb 11:1.

(Faith) aka (Hearing and hearing the Word of God) is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Using Math, we substitute God's promise into the above.

๐‡๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐†๐จ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐ž๐ž๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ , ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ .

Hearing and hearing the Word of God is the substance (divine healing), the evidence of divine healing.

Since faith makes all things possible (Mk 9:23), using Math, ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐†๐จ๐ makes all things possible.

Your divine healing does not rest in your sight/visual, nor your symptoms, nor your feelings, nor the manifestation of healing, nor the improvement or deterioration, nor the doctors' reports. 

๐˜๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ฅ๐ž ๐๐ž๐ž๐ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐จ๐จ๐Ÿ, ๐ฐ๐ก๐ข๐œ๐ก ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐–๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐†๐จ๐. You keep reading, speaking, meditating, believing and acting upon the Word of God that says, i.e. "By His stripes, you are healed." 

The Word of God is the substance and the evidence of your divine healing!

2 Corinthians 5:7 - For we walk by faith, not by sight.

Using Math, we substitute everything into 2 Corinthians 5:7.

For we walk by (hearing and hearing the Word), not by sight. 

For we walk by the evidence, not by sight.

The evidence is the Word of God. For we walk by the Word of God, not by sight. Man lives by the Word of God (Matthew 4:4)

The Word of God is the ๐Ž๐๐‹๐˜ evidence of your divine healing. When you make the Word of God your only evidence, you will have it (Mk 11:24).

P.S: This applies to every area in the Kingdom, not just divine healing.

Remission of Sickness Part 2

Remission of Sickness Part 2

In the previous part, I shared about the biblical understanding on the remission of sins. And just as God has remitted your sins, ๐‡๐ž ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฌ๐จ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ. ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐œ๐š๐ฉ๐ž๐ ๐จ๐š๐ญ (Azazel) ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐›๐ž๐ž๐ง ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐š๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ. It is entirely removed and it shall not return like what the doctors claim. ๐˜๐จ๐ฎ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž๐ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐จ๐›๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ!

In the past, after eating very spicy stuff, I would experience loose stools on the following day. It had been so normal that I was used to it. I wasn't really bothered by it, because I love spicy food, and I thought that the after-effect is normal. What you tolerate will dominate you. You can only dominate what you don't tolerate.

However, not long ago, I somehow spoke to my stomach, "In Jesus' name, you shall never have loose stools after eating spicy food again." ๐€๐ง๐ ๐ˆ ๐ญ๐จ๐ญ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐ญ ๐š๐›๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ข๐ญ.

Recently, I ate really spicy Mala crawfish (the whole bowl on my own). On the next day, my stool was normal. I didn't even realise it. On subsequent times after eating very spicy stuff, my stools were still normal!

It wasn't until last morning that I realised that I was free from the effects of eating spicy food! So I pondered on the whole thing and felt the Spirit of God highlighting a word at the back of my mind, "๐…๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐จ๐ญ๐ญ๐ž๐ง."

Then I realised the whole deal on the ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ซ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง! When God forgave our sins, He cast them into the depth of the sea (Micah 7:9). He remembers them NO MORE (Jer 31:34). Technically, ๐‡๐ž ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ž๐ญ๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฆ intentionally. There is a song called, "The Sea Of Forgetfulness".

What God did for our sins, He did for our sicknesses (Isa 53; Ps 103). While His blood remitted our sins, His body removed our sicknesses.

When Jesus cried on the Cross, "It Is Finished!", God 'forgot' our sins, and because our sins are 'forgotten', our sicknesses (which is a form of death that came through sin, Rom 5:12) were also 'forgotten'.

Since there is no more consciousness of sins (which is evil conscience, Heb 10:2-3, 22) because our sins have been 'forgotten', ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ ๐›๐ž ๐ง๐จ ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ž ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ฌ๐œ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ, because they have been 'forgotten'.

The principle of 'forgotten' lies in understanding remission. It is simple but not easy, because when you can see and feel your symptoms, you still need to choose to forget the sickness, because Jesus has already dealt with it by His stripes.

Just as how you believe that your sins are remitted, believe that your sicknesses are remitted.

Remission of Sickness Part 1

Remission of Sickness Part 1

In the medical term, when a doctor says that your sickness is in remission, what he means is that the sickness cannot be cured, but is presently inactive (or under control), and it might possibly become active again.

However, if you are a believer, you should understand what true remission is.

The biblical understanding of the word โ€˜remissionโ€™ can be found in Luke 24:47 through the sacrifice of Christ on the Cross. In Greek, it is โ€˜aphesisโ€™, which means โ€˜๐ญ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ ๐š๐ฐ๐š๐ฒโ€™, โ€˜๐ญ๐จ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž ๐ฌ๐จ๐ฆ๐ž๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐จ๐›๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ž๐›๐ญโ€™.

This can be explained by what happened on Yom Kippur in Leviticus 16. Two goats are offered for the sins of the people. One goat is sacrificed as a sin offering to the Lord (16:9). We wonโ€™t go into the details as itโ€™s not the purpose of this post. The other goat shall be sent away into the wilderness, bearing all the sins of the people (16:10, 21-22). This goat is known as the scapegoat for Azazel, which means โ€œ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ซ๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐จ๐ฏ๐š๐ฅโ€.

When something is entirely removed, you no longer have it back. What happened on Yom Kippur is a foreshadow of the true substance that took place on the Cross 2000 years ago.

When God forgave our sins through Jesusโ€™ sacrifice on the Cross, ๐‡๐ž ๐๐ž๐œ๐ข๐๐ž๐ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ž๐ฆ๐›๐ž๐ซ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฆ ๐š๐ง๐ฒ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ž (Col 2:14; Micah 7:19; Jer 31:34). Technically, ๐‡๐ž ๐œ๐ก๐จ๐ฌ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ž๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฆ. He remitted our sins (Heb 9:22; 10:18) aka โ€˜aphesisโ€™ โ€”- ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฆ ๐š๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ, ๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐๐ž๐›๐ญ, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐จ๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฆ ๐ž๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฒ!

Most people think that this is only related to sins. But I have shared many times in many posts that what Christ did for our sins, He did for our sicknesses and diseases (Read Isaiah 53, Ps 103, Matthew 8:16-17, etc again).

The same truth applies to our sicknesses just as it applies to our sins. Understanding this is a powerful key to receive wholeness for your body. God has not just remitted your sins, ๐‡๐ž ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฌ๐จ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ข๐ญ๐ญ๐ž๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ. ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐ฌ๐œ๐š๐ฉ๐ž๐ ๐จ๐š๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐›๐ž๐ž๐ง ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐š๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ. It is entirely removed and it shall not return like what doctors claim. ๐˜๐จ๐ฎ ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐ฅ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐ž๐ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐จ๐›๐ฅ๐ข๐ ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฌ๐ข๐œ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฌ!

In the next part, I will share a recent personal healing testimony that led to this revelation, and how you can apply this simple principle for your healing.

Body As A Reasonable Act Of Worship Part 2

Body As A Reasonable Act Of Worship Part 2

In the previous part, we talked about how we can present our bodies holy to God, which includes walking in divine health as a reasonable (divine reasoning through faith) act of worship.

The question is "how can we walk in that?"

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. - Romans 12:2

We are not trying to find out the will of God. We are called to PROVE the will of God ----- it is good, acceptable and perfect. The will of God is found in the Word of God.

The verse in Romans 12:2 begins with 'And' as the conjunction, which means that the previous verse is vital. Once we realise that the Perfect Sacrifice (Gal 2:20) lives in us, we will know how NOT to conform to this world, because we are to conform to the image of Christ.

The word 'conform' is to 'identify with; to have an outward form by following the same pattern/model/mold.' The word uses passive reflexively, which demonstrates the passive nature of the action. Conforming to the world is not just when you are actively doing something to follow them. By saying and doing nothing, your mind is already conformed to their thinking.

There is no middle ground or passivity when it comes to mind renewal. Today, many are conforming to the world, without realising it. This is the key reason why we are not presenting our bodies in divine health.

The word 'transform' is 'to change into another form in keeping with inner reality.' It's the same word used for Jesus' body that was transfigured at Mt Transfiguration. Jesus' mind was in full agreement with heaven such that His body was glorious and in divine health. The inner reality lies in Romans 12:1, Gal 2:20. Once we know that we are created in the image of Christ, that identity must be where we live from.

To think, speak and live from that place is mind renewal. We cannot agree with the world and think that we can still get our mind renewed. The mind of Christ must think like the mind of Christ, in the context of this FB post, divine health. To think otherwise is NOT the mind of Christ.

If mind renewal precedes proving the will of God (that which is already shown in the Word), then, even if your body hasn't lined up with the Word in divine health, you must continue to think, speak and live from the mind of Christ. Your symptoms do not prove the Word. Your feelings do not prove the Word.

Mind renewal doesn't take place only after your symptoms are gone. It starts where you are. If we can think, speak and live from the mind of Christ regardless of our bodily conditions, our bodies will eventually line up with the Word.

The will of God is to be proved by mind renewal. An un-renewed mind cannot prove the will of God. This is why God's will isn't always done (Matt 6:10).

Once we have learnt to receive healing by mind renewal, we will know how to walk in health by the same token. The same truth that is applicable to one is applicable to all. This is the beauty of the Word, where there is no partiality or special anointed men of God.

Body As A Reasonable Act Of Worship Part 1

Body As A Reasonable Act Of Worship Part 1

Many of us have been taught that we should present our bodies a living sacrifice to God. It usually refers to the way we live our lives. While that is true, it covers more than that.

I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your ๐›๐จ๐๐ข๐ž๐ฌ a ๐ฅ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ฌ๐š๐œ๐ซ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ข๐œ๐ž, ๐ก๐จ๐ฅ๐ฒ, acceptable to God, which is your ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž. - Rom 12:1

The word 'bodies' in Greek refers to 'physical body or the flesh'. The reason why God would accept our bodies as a living sacrifice is not because of our good performance and behaviours. For a sacrifice to be accepted in the OT, it has to be dead (and also without blemish).

You and I are imperfect on our own. But because of Gal 2:20, Christ, who is the Perfect Sacrifice on the Cross, now lives in and through us, making us a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God.

The word 'holy' in Greek means 'sacred, sanctified, set apart, likeness of nature with the Lord'. Since the context is also about our physical bodies (flesh), and that the body (flesh) is the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor 6:19), our bodies (flesh) are now able to be presented sanctified and in the likeness of God's nature (2 Peter 1:4).

In other words, we can walk in divine health with this sanctified body (flesh). The passage does not just cover the way we live using our bodies. It also includes the health of our bodies, for this is our ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐š๐›๐ฅ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ž๐ซ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ž.

The word 'service' refers to divine worship.

The word 'reasonable' refers to 'logic working through the divine reasoning known through faith.' What is logical and reasonable to God might not be what you think is logical and reasonable.

Human reasoning is through logical thinking.
๐ƒ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐ง๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐š๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ญ๐ก๐ซ๐จ๐ฎ๐ ๐ก ๐Ÿ๐š๐ข๐ญ๐ก.

To walk in divine health, it is acquired through faith. And this is how we present our bodies (flesh) to God as reasonable act of worship. Because you are most effective in serving Him when you are in divine health.

In the next part, we will find out HOW to walk in this.

Ministry In The Metaverse

Ministry In The Metaverse

With the evolving of technology and the new generation who are naturally inclined to it, the means of reaching the lost must change.

The Z generation is the most unchurched people group. However, data has shown that they would enter the world of metaverse anytime. The church in general has been known to be slow in creative thinking because we think 'conservative' instead of ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค๐ข๐ง๐  ๐‘๐ž๐๐ž๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. Everything that the world or the New Age uses is discarded by the church as demonic or dangerous.

We almost forgot that God is always the original Creator. ๐“๐ก๐ž ๐๐ข๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐ž๐ซ๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž ๐›๐ž๐ญ๐ฐ๐ž๐ž๐ง ๐ฌ๐š๐œ๐ซ๐ž๐ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฌ๐ž๐œ๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ซ ๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฌ ๐๐Ž๐“ ๐ข๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐ญ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ ๐›๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ .

In this whatever-de-mic, it has changed the way people think, work, live and meet. Physical buildings are no longer as relevant. I believe that metaverse will be an essential platform to reach the unreached, which includes the next generation.

Having said that, effective discipleship, IMHO, still needs to take place in natural, real life situations. Because discipleship is more caught, than taught. It is learnt by modeling.

Since a physical church service or physical church cellgroup meeting cannot truly impart discipleship, Metaverse will replace their purpose in time to come.

We can choose to wait and see, or we can choose to grow and go into the first wave to reach the next generation.

โ€œGoing online is one of the best ways to reach people in countries that have traditionally been closed to the gospel.โ€ - Souza

โ€œAs online communities grow into equipping communities, they are finding a ready audience eager to have spiritual conversations.โ€ - Jate Earhart

โ€œWeโ€™d be hard-pressed to find a higher concentration of unchurched or dechurched people from the 18 to 35 demographic than we can find in the metaverse.โ€ - D.J. Soto

Metaverse Church

The new thing that is going to take the next generation by storm. 

The old mindset is still about building buildings. But that mindset is going to lose a whole generation.

What about us in the Kingdom, but not of church institution? Itโ€™s time to think about how the remnants of the Kingdom around the world can gather. This will be crucial in our days.

You Are Not Alone

You Are Not Alone

Was reading Romans 11 last morning and was reminded of this passage.

โ€œLord, they have killed your prophets, they have demolished your altars, and ๐ˆ ๐š๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐š๐ฆ ๐ฅ๐ž๐Ÿ๐ญ, ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ฒ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ž๐ค ๐ฆ๐ฒ ๐ฅ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž.โ€ But what is God's reply to him? โ€œ๐ˆ ๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐ค๐ž๐ฉ๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฅ๐Ÿ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ง ๐ญ๐ก๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐š๐ง๐ ๐ฆ๐ž๐ง ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ก๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐›๐จ๐ฐ๐ž๐ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ค๐ง๐ž๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐š๐š๐ฅ.โ€ So too ๐š๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ž๐ง๐ญ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ซ๐ž ๐ข๐ฌ ๐š ๐ซ๐ž๐ฆ๐ง๐š๐ง๐ญ, ๐œ๐ก๐จ๐ฌ๐ž๐ง ๐›๐ฒ ๐ ๐ซ๐š๐œ๐ž. - Romans 11:3-5

There is a small handful of believers in SG who might feel that they are alone. Elijah experienced that and went into depression. Until God strengthened him.

We can learn not to fall into depression by David's example ----- David strengthened himself in the Lord, when everyone and every situation was against him.

However, if you feel that you are alone and are unable to stand, take heart, for just as God told Elijah that He had reserved 7000 men, so too, at the present time, God reserved a remnant by His grace.

While the context of this passage is about Israel and her salvation, the principle applies to God's grace for the elect.

There are many pockets of individual standing alone today, of the Kingdom but not of any institution. I believe that it's important to get connected as a remnant so that we can stand strong collectively.

We will need one another in time to come when distress and other situations listed in Romans 8:35 arise.

We are already seeing this powerfully in non-believers in our present situation, as they gather to support one another due to distress. The resources and ideas are amazing. I'm privileged to see their love packed with action and risks, while we believers simply preach love but walk in separation and fear.

If we are still not awakened, it's time to question ourselves if we have been doing religion and living as zombies or living the faith.

Conflicting Reports

Conflicting Reports

There are always conflicting reports in the life of a believer.

๐“๐ก๐ž ๐ซ๐ž๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ก๐ข๐œ๐ก ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐œ๐ก๐จ๐จ๐ฌ๐ž ๐ญ๐จ ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฏ๐ž ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐š๐ฅ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐Œ๐š๐ฌ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐‹๐จ๐ซ๐ ๐ข๐ฌ. Alot of people say, "Jesus is my Lord." But deep on the inside, they don't believe His report. They rather believe in the doctors', the experts' and the reporters' report.

๐–๐ก๐จ ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ? - Isa 53:1

The word 'report' in Hebrew is 'shemuah', which can be translated as 'news, report, message, rumour.'

The context of this passage covers Christ who bore our sins and sicknesses (Isa 53:4-5). His report includes, "๐๐ฒ ๐‡๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐ฉ๐ž๐ฌ, ๐ฐ๐ž ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ก๐ž๐š๐ฅ๐ž๐."

Today, when confronted with reports, news and rumours, we actually believe them more than the report that the prophet Isaiah gave.

When doctors give a report, we forgot about our Master Physician's report.
When reporters give a report, we forgot about the Great Prophet's report.
When experts give a report, we forgot about our Chief Expert's report.

This truly reveals that deep in our heart, our Lord and Master are not Jesus. Because Lordship requires surrendering. You surrender to the Master's report, instead of other people's report.

Whether it is omicron, unicron, megathron, the report from the Alpha and the Omega covers all ------ it says, "By His stripes, you are healed."

Which report will you believe?

The cry of prophet Isaiah is still valid today, "๐–๐ก๐จ ๐ก๐š๐ฌ ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ?"

The Mouth & The Heart

The Mouth & The Heart

There is something powerful about our words. There are so many Scriptures on that. Our confession can either be about our condition or our conclusion.

Your condition is not your conclusion. But if you can conclude your conclusion by your confession before you experience the change in your condition, your position will conclude your condition.

F.F. Bosworth said, 'Faith interprets the Word of God as the voice of God.'

Biblical confession is to agree with and speak what God says. God only says what He sees. If you want to see what He sees, then you have to say what He says. The Word of God is what God says. So if you confess the Word of God, you are saying what He says.

"God's Word in Christ's mouth is as powerful as God's Word is in your mouth." - John G Lake

The place of confession must come from the place of believing (Matt 12:34). If you believe, you will speak. However, if you don't believe yet, then speak until you believe.

Because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐›๐ž ๐ฌ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, โ€œ๐„๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ๐จ๐ง๐ž ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐‡๐ข๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐›๐ž ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ฆ๐ž." - Rom 10:9-11

Majority of today's church take this passage as merely for salvation of the spirit. That is only part of the Gospel. The word 'saved' in Greek is 'sozo', which includes your spirit, soul and body. God has never intended for your spirit to be saved only. That's not the FULL Gospel. Or rather... that's heretic in my opinion.

Your confession brings salvation of the spirit. By the same token, it brings salvation of the body aka divine healing, because Romans 10:9 applies to spirit, soul and body.

The problem lies with our confession and our believing. When things don't go the way it should be, do we change our confession? Heb 10:23 says that we should hold fast the confession without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

If God is faithful and changes not, then His voice changes not. His Word changes not. What He sees and what He says changes not. His conclusion changes not.

Therefore, by looking unto The Faithful One who changes not, we change NOT our confession despite our condition. We conclude our conclusion by holding fast to our confession. Standing on this position will conclude our condition, whether miraculously, suddenly or progressively.

Infusing Divine Life

Infusing Divine Life

The word 'gives' (or quickens) in Rom 8:11 in Greek means 'to infuse His divine life (zoe) into us'. The word studies note that 'His self-existent, all-powerful life overcomes all the deadly effects of sin.'

F.F. Bosworth said, "The Spirit quickens us according to our trust in God's Word."

In other words, when we follow Mark 11:24 ----- Faith -> Fact -> Feelings, the Spirit infuses His divine life from our spirit to our soul and body, crushing every deadly effect of sin, which includes every sickness and disease, including 10,000 kovic variants.

The keyword lies in 'trusting His Word'. Because the Word of God is the only evidence we need (Heb 11:1). When you own a title deed to a property, you don't have to see the physical property. Just seeing the title deed proves that you own the real deal. If you own NFT in real estate, the non-fungible digital tokens are the proof of your fractional property ownership, even if you don't see the property.

The Word of God is your title deed or NFT. It is the proof or the evidence that the divine life is in you. If we simply trust that, the Spirit will infuse that life into us, repelling every sickness so that we can walk in divine health.

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 3

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 3

In Part 2, we talked about the progression of the circumstances we are facing in today's world that is a tad likened to the first century.

Apostle Paul, who experienced all those, said "๐–๐ก๐จ ๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฉ๐š๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐‚๐ก๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ?"

The believers in Rome were facing such distress that Paul entered into a dialectical and rhetorical dialogue with them in the letter. He knew how they felt and he addressed that. 

"As it is written, 'For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.'" - Rom 8:36

Those believers had lost the fighting spirit. They felt they were simply sheep meant to be slaughtered. ๐“๐จ๐๐š๐ฒ, ๐จ๐ง๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐š ๐ฌ๐ฆ๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ก๐š๐ง๐๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ฅ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐›๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ž๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ข๐ง ๐’๐† ๐Ÿ๐š๐œ๐ž ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐œ๐ก (planned) ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ. (Greek = narrow/confined place) due to the re-stre-et-ions. 

Sta-tis-tics show that only 4% (ag-ed 12 a-nd a-bove) are NOT veksinated. This includes those who are not believers and those who are not eli-gi-ble.

In this small handful of believers, many face distress and probably think that they are like sheep to be slaughtered.

BUT Paul said, "๐๐จ, in all these things we are ๐ฆ๐จ๐ซ๐ž ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ง ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ช๐ฎ๐ž๐ซ๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ through Him who loved us."  Rom 8:37

This should be our RESPONSE because of His Love. The phrase 'more than conquerors' means '๐š ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ-๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ช๐ฎ๐ž๐ซ๐จ๐ซ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐œ๐จ๐ฆ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ž๐ญ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐š๐ง๐ ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฐ๐ก๐ž๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ฅ๐ฒ ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ'. We are not merely fighting as warriors. ๐–๐ž ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ข๐จ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐ฐ๐š๐ซ๐ซ๐ข๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ ๐ž๐ง๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ๐œ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐š๐œ๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐›๐ฒ ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ข๐ง ๐‡๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž.

Come next year, the percentage of believers facing distress will increase because of what is to come. This includes those who have been veksinated. If you want to avoid distress, you can choose convenient Christianity. Otherwise, take heart and remember Romans 8:37.

Nailing It For Healing

Nailing It For Healing

My son and I were doing our routine housework cleaning all the windows at home. I was wiping halfway when I accidentally injured my ring finger.

It was painful. I tried to continue wiping but each time when I moved it, it was painful.

So I raised my voice at the pain and commanded it to get out. Then I said, โ€œBy Your stripes, I am healed!โ€

Without feeling any difference, I intentionally put more force on the finger and wiped even harder. Man, it was even more painful!

But I am a very intense person when it comes to healing. So I continued saying, โ€œBy Your stripes, Iโ€™m already healed.โ€ And I continued to wipe harder with that finger, biting my teeth as I experienced the pain.

Then all of a sudden, the pain disappeared completely. Yay God!

This is not the first time that I did this and experienced instant healing. I had injured my shoulder before. After commanding the pain to go, I would immediately do push-ups to go against the pain intentionally.

This might sound crazy to some, but I know I am not alone in this. This muscle boy Michael also does the same approach.

Because Faith -> Fact -> Feeling. When you act on your faith because you believe that you are healed, the manifestation will come.

When the Word is more real to you than your feelings and sight, the Word will become reality to you.

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 2

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 2

Fear is real. So we need to decide the source of our feeding, whether we feed on "it is written" or "it is reported".

The Word says that ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž ๐œ๐š๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐ž๐š๐ซ (1 Jn 4:8). You cannot cast out fear by casting out fear. You cannot command fear to leave you. You cannot do inner healing to cast out fear. God has ordained the way for fear to be cast out ----- ๐›๐ฒ ๐ค๐ง๐จ๐ฐ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐‡๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž (Rom 5:5; Eph 3:19).

The love of God overcomes all circumstances and these are listed in Romans 8.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall ๐ญ๐ซ๐ข๐›๐ฎ๐ฅ๐š๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, or ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ, or ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐ฌ๐ž๐œ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง, or ๐Ÿ๐š๐ฆ๐ข๐ง๐ž, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? - Romans 8:35

The word 'tribulation' focuses on '๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ง๐š๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž' which constricts you. When the vi-r-u-s first broke out, it was a tribulation (affliction) that caused an internal pressure. People were fearful of contracting it. They were uncertain and thus, didn't dare to leave their dwelling.

Soon, it progressed to distress. The word 'distress' focuses on ๐ž๐ฑ๐ญ๐ž๐ซ๐ง๐š๐ฅ ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž due to circumstances. The Greek word is 'stenoxลrรญa', whose root means '๐ง๐š๐ซ๐ซ๐จ๐ฐ, ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐Ÿ๐ข๐ง๐ž๐.' With the re-stree-tions going on, one certainly experiences 'narrow, confined' aka distress.

Next, we see the word 'persecution'. The word literally means 'the hunt to bring someone down like an animal, ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฒ๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ซ๐ž๐ฌ๐ฌ (๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ฌ๐ก) ๐ญ๐ก๐ž๐ข๐ซ ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐ข๐œ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ'. We have not yet progressed to this stage, but I suspect it coming.

Next, we see 'famine', which is ๐ฌ๐œ๐š๐ซ๐œ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ๐จ๐จ๐. This might also come.

There are further progressions if Matthew 24 is a double-fold prophecy (original context was fulfilled in AD 70s). No one is sure, but it's always good to be ready and vigilant.

Facing such progressions and circumstances, apostle Paul, who experienced all these, said "๐–๐ก๐จ ๐ฌ๐ก๐š๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ฌ๐ž๐ฉ๐š๐ซ๐š๐ญ๐ž ๐ฎ๐ฌ ๐Ÿ๐ซ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ž ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž ๐จ๐Ÿ ๐‚๐ก๐ซ๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ?"

Only the love of Christ can cast out all fears during such progressions and circumstances. The best preparation to be ready and vigilant is ๐†๐„๐“ ๐‡๐Ž๐‹๐ƒ ๐Ž๐… ๐‡๐ˆ๐’ ๐‹๐Ž๐•๐„.

In the next part, we will see how we can see from His eyes, and what is a wrong response to the present situation.

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 1

Perfect Love Casts Out Fear Part 1

I was pondering and praying about why majority accepted the narrative when it is plain clear that it's a lie from the pit of hell.

...that through death Jesus might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were ๐ฌ๐ฎ๐›๐ฃ๐ž๐œ๐ญ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž๐ฅ๐จ๐ง๐  ๐ฌ๐ฅ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ซ๐ฒ. - Heb 2:14-15

The one who holds the power of death is the devil. The power of death induces the fear of death. Anyone who has fear of death will be subjected to every fear that leads to bondage.

Fear of death
Fear of sickness
Fear of losing freedom
Fear of losing loved ones
Fear of losing job
Fear of the unknown

The information released around the world is in cooperation with the devil. How do we know that? It induces fear. We must not say that we are practising wisdom, for such wisdom is from James 3:15. It is fear disguised as earthly wisdom.

We need to be pre-occupied with "it is written" than to be influenced by "it is reported." The decision we make reveals clearly if we are moved by "it is written" or "it is reported". Saying and preaching do not mean anything. What counts is the action.

It is thus important for us to know what kind of jurisdiction we hold in Christ. Since Christ has the jurisdiction over the one who holds the power of death, it means that you and I (in Him) have His jurisdiction over the power of death. In other words, we have His jurisdiction over the fear of death and all it's bondage/slavery (Heb 2:15).

This is simple, but not easy to walk/live out. This is why the Word doesn't say that dominion (jurisdiction) casts out fear. It says that ๐ฉ๐ž๐ซ๐Ÿ๐ž๐œ๐ญ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž ๐œ๐š๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ญ ๐Ÿ๐ž๐š๐ซ (1 Jn 4:8).

Our decision must be ๐ฅ๐จ๐ฏ๐ž-๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐ž๐ง, not fear-driven. When we feed on the information given from the world (in cooperation with the devil), fear is built up. When we feed on the information from the Word, love is built up.

How many believers spend more time reading "it is written", than reading "it is reported"? By a simple measure of that, we will know if their decision is love-driven or fear-driven.

The love of God overcomes all circumstances and these are listed in Romans 8.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? - Romans 8:35

The context of this verse is with regards to the 'present sufferings' (Rom 8:18) among believers living on the inhabited earth aka the ancient Roman world (one world order). Emperor Nero was in power.

In the next part, we will see the progression of each circumstance in Rom 8:35 as though it is happening in our world today.

The Only Evidence



Healing Of The Body Is Simple

Healing Of The Body Is Simple

Healing of the body is as simple as healing of the soul. Since it is through hearing and believing in the Gospel that we receive salvation of our spirit, then by the same token of hearing and believing of the Gospel, we receive salvation of our body.

The problem lies with sight and feeling. When it comes to the salvation of the spirit, we cannot see nor feel. It is simply by faith. After we commit ourselves to God for salvation of our spirit, we do not wake up every day questioning, "God, am I saved? God, am I really saved?"

Why? Because we cannot see or feel it. When we cannot see or feel it, it becomes so simple and easy. We just trust Him. Period.

When it comes to the salvation of our body aka healing, there are usually sight and feeling involved. These complicate the issue. The way to appropriate healing is the SAME way to appropriate salvation of our spirit. It is simply by faith. But the hindrance lies with what we see and feel ----- the symptoms.

If we based the salvation of our spirit by faith (not sight nor feeling), then we must base the healing of our body by faith (not sight nor feeling aka symptoms).

In other words, the symptoms (whether there is improvement or not) are no longer the basis of your healing. You simply trust Him. Period. For just as Christ is the basis of your salvation (spirit), He is the basis of your healing (body).

When we are sure of our healing (body) just as we are sure of our salvation (spirit), we enter into that promise experientially.

It is simple, but not easy. So we have to cast away sight and feeling aka symptoms and keep looking unto Him.
