PROVISIONS THROUGH THE NEW BLOOD COVENANT

PROVISIONS THROUGH THE NEW BLOOD COVENANT

Rev 12:11   ¹¹ And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

The word is saying that the saints overcame the accuser (the devil) by the blood of Jesus and the word of their testimony.

This is true not only for the end time martyrs but it is true for born again children of God living their everyday lives in any generation.

However you can not have a testimony unless you know the rights of a born again child of God. The things you inherited, in, through and with Jesus, because of His work on the cross.

You must know who you are in Christ Jesus.

Then to bring those things that you already possess into manifestation you must begin to believe them.

To be born again you must have faith that God exists and that he sent his only begotten son to die for your sins, because he loves you.

John 3:16 says that God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Salvation is a free gift for you, purchased by Jesus. But unless you believe that and confess it with your mouth, salvation is not manifested in your life… it is not a reality for you.

Romans 10:9-10   ⁹ That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.¹⁰ For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

First you need to find out from the word what things are already yours because of what Jesus did for you on the cross.

Then if you want to build faith for those things to become real in your life, begin to speak out the good things God has already done. Things that you are believing for Him to do in your life.

James 2:17 says, faith without works is dead. Your faith grows stronger by telling testimonies of Jesus and by continually confessing what you believe God will do.

A weak confession is one that is full of doubt and is a confession of defeat.

As long as people talk defeat they can not be over comers. They have the blood of Jesus but the true word of their testimony is missing. What is confession, the word of our testimony is our confession.

We are told in Hebrews 4: 14 to hold fast to our profession, or let us cling to Him and never stop trusting Him. Our profession is the positive thing God has done in our lives and for us.

The word of our testimony speaks out of us as to who we are in Christ Jesus. Not just what he has done for us in our natural lives, but also spiritually.

From God’s viewpoint, his word says everything you are or have is true. Those things are already done. 

The bible is a legal document. It is putting forth the story, the description, and the provisions of the Blood covenant, of which the Abrahamic (or old covenant) was the forerunner.

There are more than one hundred expressions of, in Christ, in Him, in Whom, Through Whom, and so forth in the New Testament. That set forth all the things Jesus provided for us by His shed blood on the Cross of Calvary.

 2^nd Corr 5:17   ¹⁷ Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

If we are in Christ, and Christ is in us, we are a new creature… All things have become new. 

Finding out the reality of who you are in Christ will change your life.

Keep the word of your testimony in line with Gods word.

Babes in Christ

1 Thessalonians 5: 5-6   ⁵ Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.   ⁶ Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober

Once you accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, the Holy Spirit comes and dwells in your spirit.

At that time you become the children of the light.

Notice it stated Children… when you made Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Lord of your life, a new spirit was born in you.

This baby spirit has no knowledge, same as a natural born baby.

You and I know that the natural baby doesn’t know the things of the world and can not protect itself.

This new born natural baby needs parental support, training, feeding and protection from this evil and unsettled world.

You can’t produce a new born baby and expect it to have knowledge like a grown person.

The only thing a newborn knows is to cry when it is hungry and cry when it is in pain.

Your new born spirit is a baby same as a natural born baby. It too needs parental knowledge and training. Otherwise it will suffer the consequences of being unlearned and untrained same as a natural born baby.

If the natural newborn isn’t trained in the way it should grow it will have a disastrous life. It must be fed and nurtured so it can grow up to be strong and wise.

It is the same way with the spirit child; it will also have undeveloped wisdom and not have the necessary biblical skills it needs if you do not feed it the word.

Both babies have to be fed, nourished and have parental training to be used for life’s purposes and Gods purpose.

If you never spoke to your new born it could never speak itself, because it never heard the words to learn to speak.

If you never speak Gods word to your newborn spirit child it too will never develop in the word. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.

It takes words to train both children. Words develop them for the world they must face each and every day.

They will need common language and spiritual language for the development of both natural and spiritual children.

You need to think about what you are feeding your spiritual child. Are you ignoring your inner spiritual child or are you feeding it the word of God, your spiritual child needs more than just one meal a week. Life is not about just having a one time meal.

Your spiritual child needs to be fed often, just as you would feed a natural child.

Proverbs 4:20-23   ²⁰ My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.²¹ Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.²² For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.²³ Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

My son… we are his children.  He says, listen to what I am saying, open your ears to my words, and don’t loose sight of them.

Keep them deep within your heart, because your heart is this spirit child. The word is life to those who find it, and health to the physical body or inner child.

Both children win when the word of God is applied to their daily lives.

Everyone wants to go to heaven but no one wants to die to get there. If you do not feed your natural baby it will die, if you don’t feed your spiritual baby it too will die.

You need Gods word daily to feed your inner spiritual child. If you don’t feed your inner spiritual child it will never mature in the word of God.

No one with common since would take their natural child to Disneyland and turn it loose and walk away with out giving that child the proper training.

We must not turn our spiritual child out to the things of this world without the proper training.

What are we feeding our spiritual child today?

The word to the spirit child is like medicine to the natural child. If your natural child was sick you would take it to the doctor to get it healed.

If your spirit child is sick from lack of knowledge, just feed it the word… it will get well.

Taking care of both children is a daily thing, but it is something that is necessary to overcome the world, the flesh and the devil.

PERFECTED BY HIS GLORY

1 Chronicles 16: 24-25    ²⁴ Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations.²⁵ For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.Declare His glory, when you hear the word. Declare it.Press forth, decree, and declare I am in the great glory.

Stop saying I wish the glory of God was like in the day of Pentecost, or like it was Forty years ago.

Starts speaking with your mouth and your God given power and authority, your words have power.  Start saying, I declare the glory of God over my home, over my family, over my church.

As you pray and believe, the Holy Spirit brings these things up and brings them into being. This is the year of the greater glory, the year of the over comer.

This is the year of visitations, demonstrations and manifestations. We must receive it first by faith, even if our mind won’t comprehend it.

Our natural mind will never be able to understand the spiritual things of God.

Genesis 1:1-2   1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.² And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

When God spoke the Holy Spirit moved, when the Holy Spirit hears the word of God He goes into action.

Isaiah 42:9   ⁹ Behold, the former things are come to pass, and new things do I declare: before they spring forth I tell you of them.

The way God did this was through the prophets.

Amos 3:7    Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

The reason the prophets had to say it was because with out the prophets the people wouldn’t know what God said (or predicted).

People in the wilderness kept saying he brought us out here to die, Moses kept telling them; God brought you out so you could go to the promise land.

We must learn to trust God at his word; you can do that by putting His word in you.

When God corrects you, be corrected. Don’t get your feelings hurt and get mad at God. When you get corrected, you get protected, when you get protected, you get perfected.

When you get perfected, you get directed, and the progression starts. God is saying I want to do something new in the earth, but I need to have somebody listening to me so I can reveal it to them.

I show it to them and it becomes their responsibility to declare it.

God’s people are being robbed because no one is hearing what God wants them to do. It seems like no one is saying what God wants them to say today.

God wants to bring restoration to us, but he says I can’t because my servants are spiritually blind and deaf.

A person who lives consistently in Gods word never has to change their lifestyle

They are not hearing what I am saying, and they are not seeing what I want them to. As a result the people will live less than their privileges.

Jesus didn’t come into the earth until God spoke it. Isaiah saw it happen seven hundred years before it happened.

There is a fullness of time and God sent his son at just the right time. There is a fullness of time in every promise of God, but someone has to declare it.

God will bring to pass what we say, just like he brought to pass what Jesus said.

Psalms 103:20   Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.

Angels are ready and able at his bidding quick to hear Him and do as He says.

We have the Holy Spirit and His angels that are waiting for us to decree and declare the word of God. When we begin to do what God says, that gives them the O.K. to go to work. For this purpose we have angels assigned to us.

Isaiah 55: 11   ¹¹ So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.

They will do the work I sent them to do and they will complete the assignment I gave them.

When we decree what God declares. Then God says I am going to do something new, before it comes to pass I will tell you about it.

God is waiting for someone to give voice to His word. Why is it that we have a God in heaven and earth and his children are still living in poverty? It is about time we decree and declare the glory of God in our lives.

I declare the glory over our church and Gods manifested presence and His power and His goodness over everyone here.

Let’s act like the bible is true and declare the glory, not only will the Holy Spirit go into action but all the angels will too. Then we will bring the things we decree and declare to pass.

THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH

What is faith?

Hebrews 11: 1-3    Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

² For by it the elders obtained a good report.³ Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

Faith is confidant assurance that what we hope for is going to happen. It is the evidence of things we can not yet see.

God gave his approval to people in the days of old because of their faith. By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at Gods command, by his word.

The things we see now did not come from anything that can be seen. God spoke it into existence.

Colossian 1:16   For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

By Him, by the words of his mouth all things were created.

Many things created can’t be seen. You can’t see the air, but it does not mean it is not there. You can’t see your brain, or germs but they are there.

The evidence is confirmation of substance. Belief gets it started, faith carries it thru. Strong belief moves faith from your head to your heart.

Faith is the material for hope. Hope is the blueprint faith builds on. Faith is equal to the word of God, but it has to be in two places. First it has to be in the heart, then in the mouth.

John 1: 1-3   In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

² The same was in the beginning with God.³ All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

All of it was made by the words the Spirit spoke.

God has made another speaking spirit called man.

Genesis 1:26    ²⁶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Genesis 5:1   This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him;

We are not just a man or just a woman, we are another speaking spirit, made in the image of God.  If you don’t speak it, you won’t get it.

3 John 1:2    Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

 Faith will not move until the will of God is moved. Prosperity and health depend on the will of God. The will of God depends on the condition of your soul.

Perfect faith can not exist where the will of God is unknown. Faith is trusting the next step. Words of faith make a reality. The will of God is our foundation for faith. God says, I will do this if you will do that.

Romans 12:2   And be not conformed to this world: but be ye

transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
 

In other words, don’t copy the things of the world, but let God transform you into a new person by renewing your mind. Let God help you to think righteous thoughts.

You must look beyond the natural realm of your mind, will and emotions to have the God kind of faith.

Romans 10:17   So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Faith is taking the next step, trusting totally in Gods word, concerning His will, His word and His promises for your life.

Pray a simple prayer and ask God to help you to understand His will for your life, and to strengthen your faith.

THE POWER OF LOVE

Romans 5:5   And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

This expectation will not disappoint us. For we know how dearly God loves us. He has given us the Holy Spirit to fill our hearts with His love.

Mankind has taken the power of love, and turned it into the love of power. Mankind has conditional love. God has unconditional love.

A lot of powerful people will not inherit the kingdom of God. Why?  They are not letting the Holy Spirit into their lives. They are not walking in the Holy Spirit. They have not developed a relationship with God.

Satan is the god of this world. Satan has no authority over the Body of Christ. We as Christians live under Gods law of Love.

The earth’s natural laws are superseded by spiritual laws.

 

John 3: 16   For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

It is saying God so loved, God is love…

1^st John 5:1-5   Whosoever believeth that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.² By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.³ For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.⁴ For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.⁵ Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God?

All who believe that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God.

Verse 1 is saying that everyone who loves the Father in Heaven loves his own children too.

Verse 3. By loving God it means we must keep His commandments. His commandments are not grievous or difficult.

Verse 4. For whatsoever is born of God overcomes the world.

This is the victory that overcomes the world… every child of God defeats the evil of this world by trusting Jesus to give us the victory.

 

Verse 5. And the ones who win this battle against the world are the ones who believe that Jesus is the son of

God.

 Develop your faith in Gods love for you. Put the word first, not your feelings. Make a decision to walk in Gods love in your life. Love always prevails and produces victory.

The Love of God never fails.

God will never fall out of love with you. To walk in love is to walk in the highest spiritual realm there is.

We are to walk even as Jesus walked. We have the same capacity as Jesus. That same capacity makes us responsible to walk as Jesus walked.

If we love one another God dwells in us and His love is perfected in us.

Gods Blessings

GODS BLESSINGS

I want to show you a bible mystery lost to the Christian church for 2000 years. It is a mystery that can change your life, your family and your church forever.

It is God’s will, He wants to bless you.

We all want to have God’s supernatural blessings over our finances, health relationships and emotions. We desire to be filled with the peace that surpasses understanding and joy unspeakable.

We want victory over the world, the flesh and the devil. The secret is locked in the supernatural power of the blessing.

Numbers 6: 24-27   ²⁴ The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:

²⁵ The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:²⁶ The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.²⁷ And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.

The last 5 words in verse 27 says, And I will bless them.

Not because we deserve it. God does not love you because of what you do. God blesses you because he has chosen to bless you.

His grace knows  no limits, His love knows no measure. His compassion has no boundaries, and His tender mercies are renewed every morning.

So what is the blessing?

A blessing: the imparting of the supernatural power of God into a human life by the spoken word of God’s delegated authority.

It is God’s will to bless every aspect of your life. Once this blessing has been spoken it can not be withdrawn. Only God can stop it for disobedience. No man can stop it.

Once a spiritual authority speaks the blessing you should fully expect it on your life. The source of any righteous blessing is of the Lord, a supernatural power is released when we bless and praise his holy name.

Psalms 66: 1-2   Make a joyful noise unto God, all ye lands:² Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.

Sing to the Lord all the earth, sing of his great name. Tell the world how wonderful He is.

When God heals your body, restores a broken marriage, opens the windows of heaven and blesses you financially, it is time to make a joyful noise to His name.

Psalms 150: 6   ⁶ Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.

If you are alive, Praise the Lord. It is time for Christians in America to quit stating how difficult life is and to make a joyful noise to the Lord and Praise Him.

There is one name above all names; it is a precious name a powerful name. A name that saves it is an eternal name. It is the name of Jesus.

He is our hope, our joy and our salvation. Our future is not determined by presidents or politicians. It is determined by our Savior and our God.

Romans 12:14   ¹⁴ Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.

Don’t unload on someone because they hurt you. It is better to forgive and pray for that person.

What is a curse? It is a negative supernatural power initiated by speech.  That is words spoken by God or someone in spiritual authority.

This destructive force of cursing someone can continue from generation to generation until it is supernaturally broken. Our words have power and that power has an effect.

Positive words have the power to convey Gods blessings, healing, joy, confidence and peace. Negative words have the power to bring emotional and spiritual death.

Some believe that curses were removed at the cross. That is not correct. The only curse removed at Calvary was the curse of the law.

Here is how you as a Christian can break curses.

1. Bless those that curse you.
2. Admit that others have knowingly or unknowingly spoken a curse over your life.
3. Identify the nature of the curse.
4. Pray aloud by name for each curse to be broken.

Say, Father in the name of Jesus I ask you to break this curse over me. I renounce it in the name of Jesus.  I am free. As a child of God you are entitled to his supernatural blessings.

A blessing is the act of releasing the supernatural power of God into your life or another person’s life by the spoken word with spiritual authority.

THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT

THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT

1 Timothy 4:1   Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils;

Paul is saying here the Holy Spirit tells us clearly that in the last days some will turn away from what we believe.

They will follow lying spirits and teachings that came from the doctrines of devils. False teachers were and are still a threat to the church.

Even today it is not enough that a teacher, minister or evangelist appears to know what they are talking about or says she or he is speaking for God.

If their words contradict what the bible says they are teaching false. These hypocrites, false teachers are lying spirits that are teaching what come from demons.

The devil deceives people by offering a clever imitation of the real things of God. Don’t be impressed with a teachers style of credentials, his teaching must line up with the word of God.

Because we still live in the flesh we sometimes get weak in our thinking and that is very fertile ground. It leaves room for the devil to work on our minds.

Eph 4:23-27   ²³ And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;

²⁴ And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness.²⁵ Wherefore putting away lying, speak every man truth with his neighbour: for we are members one of another.²⁶ Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:²⁷ Neither give place to the devil.

Our old way of life before we got saved should be completely in the past. We must put on the new nature, go in a new direction and have a new way of thinking that the Holy Spirit gives us.

Don’t give place to the devil. Why, because it is his goal to deceive you. It is so important to avoid the worthless deeds of evil and darkness and stay away from evil influences.

When things don’t work out the way we think they should or the way we want them to, that is when wrong thoughts start coming into our minds. That is when we start thinking of things. Satan fights with lies and sometimes his lies sound like truth.

Satan often attacks our heart, the very center of our emotions… self worth… and trust. He wants us to think the good news of the gospel is worthless and hopeless.

Satan wants to make us doubt God. Never doubt in the enduring power of the heavenly realm.

Did you ever have a bad habit that you actually hated, and know in your heart that it is wrong? Sinfully wrong. In your heart you would say, I am never going to do that again.

But sure enough this nagging thought would drive you crazy, and without thinking you would do it again. The temptation was so strong that you could not stop yourself.

You are not alone, that probably describes half the population or more. Bad thoughts lustful thoughts and thoughts of wrong desires only come from one source, the devil.

We all have areas where temptation is strong and habits are hard to conquer. These weaknesses give the devil a foothold. We must deal with our areas of vulnerability.

We still live in the flesh, most people struggle with a particular sin. The sin is bad enough but the big problem is when we try to justify it.

1 Peter 5:8    ⁸ Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

Your adversary, the devil, is always on the prowl, seeking someone to devour. Just like a real lion who seeks out the young and feeble to attack and kill.

John 10:10   The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

Who is the thief? The one who comes to kill, steal and destroy. How does he kill steal and destroy? He does it By deception, getting you to doubt yourself and God.

This deception does have a good ending, Jesus says I am come that you might have life and that they might have life more abundantly.

Yes you will be tempted, Jesus was tempted, yes there will be thoughts that come to your mind, some not so good, some worse.

You need to consider the source; you know these thoughts are not of God so they must be from the adversary the devil.

James 4:7   Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Tell his as Jesus did to get behind you.
