TO THE BIBLE:
Hebrews 4:10
“For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His.”
LET’S TALK
“I’ve been praying for five months now just to get healed of this ailment, but it keeps getting worse. I’m feeling really depressed,” Valerie lamented.
“You don’t need to be depressed or stressed about it,” Carl replied gently. “What you need is to understand what the Word says about your health and stand firm on those promises.”
Sadly, I’ve heard many who gripe in the same way, “I’ve prayed for five years, with intense fasting, and even sown seeds just to get healed of this ailment!” Life, to them, has become a spiritual warfare or, as it were, an endless struggle in prayer just to live in health, pay a meagre house rent, or even pass their exams.
This problem usually stems from their ignorance of what rightfully belongs to them in Christ. Psalm 82:6-7 says, ‘I said, “You are gods, and all of you are children of the Most High. But you shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.”’ Why would they die like men? Why would they fall like one of the princes? It’s because “they know not”; that is, their ignorance!
First, you belong to a great and winning Kingdom, so square up, chest out and chin up because Jesus already paid the full price for you to walk in victory and enjoy all His blessings. How would you talk, walk, or act if you knew you were superior to sickness, disease, and infirmity? That understanding would put an end to unnecessary health struggles, wouldn’t it?
If you found out that you’re the seed of Abraham, an heir of blessings untold, and have been imbued with a life that’s incapable of poverty or failure-a life that can’t be defeated or destroyed-wouldn’t that immediately change the contents of your prayer? Get to know the Word for yourself; be acquainted with these truths. Remember, the life of blessings is your heritage in Christ Jesus. God already blessed you beyond measure (Ephesians 1:3). Hallelujah!
GO DEEPER
1 Corinthians 3:21-22 AMPC
So let no one exult proudly concerning men [boasting of having this or that man as a leader], for all things are yours, 22 Whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas (Peter), or the universe or life or death, or the immediate and [a]threatening present or the [subsequent and uncertain] future—all are yours,
Hebrews 4:3 AMPC
For we who have believed (adhered to and trusted in and relied on God) do enter that rest, [a]in accordance with His declaration that those [who did not believe] should not enter when He said, As I swore in My wrath, They shall not enter My rest; and this He said although [His] works had been completed and prepared [and waiting for all who would believe] from the foundation of the world.
SPEAK
I walk in the truths of God’s Word, getting acquainted with my inheritance in Christ and enjoying all of these numerous, multifaceted blessings. I live in the fulfilment and reality of God’s blessings. I’ve been brought into God’s rest. All things are mine. I take full advantage of all that’s available to me in Christ, and by my faith, I triumph gloriously always and in every place. Amen.
