Bible Verse of The Day – 10-2-24

John 8:36 (NKJV) 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

God is the God of absolutes. He is the God of truth.

Jesus stated (in John 14:6) that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life. He came to offer freedom to humanity.

He brought (and paid for) this freedom by way of the words He spoke and by His sacrificial death on the cross. Both of these things offered freedom to anyone who was willing to embrace them in their fullness and apply them to their lives.

During His time on earth, Jesus spent a fair amount of time ministering directly to people He encountered; the sick, the lame, the demon-possessed, and even the dead.

And He healed them all. Completely.

He did not partially heal them. He did not partially deliver them. He did not partially raise them from the dead. What He did, He did in fullness.

He stated plainly in His own words that “if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.”

His word is truth. His words, free indeed, indicate complete freedom.

Over the last several months I have heard numerous references to addicted people reaching out to Jesus as a replacement for the drugs and alcohol that enslave them.

And while I understand the sincerity of this statement, it has shown me that many people still do not fully realize the complete deliverance and freedom that God offers through the blood of Christ.

His absolute freedom is not just my opinion. It is made plain in God’s word. But somehow the clarity and truth of this has been missed or laid aside by some.

Why? Because it can be difficult for the human intellect to grasp that a touch from God can break the chains of a years-long or decades-long addiction or health/medical problem.

But that lack of understanding or acceptance does not negate the truth.

God does not operate within the bounds of our thinking (Isaiah 55:9). He is not limited by our lack of understanding or lack of taking Him at His word.

He is still the same God who spoke the worlds into existence. He is still the same God who formed man from the dirt and breathed life into the nostrils of Adam.

And He is still the same God who chose to come to earth in human form, walk among us, demonstrate love, compassion, and mercy to us, and then willingly die in our place in the cruelest, most brutal way that man had devised at that time.

Let us see the truth that is written out for us (literally), and embrace it on a personal level, allowing Him to touch us by faith and bring the freedom and healing that He wants us to walk in.

It is real. And the words Jesus spoke are true; you shall be free indeed.

Isaiah 53:4-5 (LSB) 4 Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our peace fell upon Him, And by His wounds we are healed.

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-20-24

Mark 11:24 (NKJV) 24 Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

We believe today that healing will come in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Amen.

We are believing with you today for healing over your body.

If you are sick and having problems with your health, we stand in agreement with you for complete healing. May God give you wisdom to take the necessary steps that need to be taken on your end.

If you are struggling with addictions, anxiety or depression, we pray for complete deliverance, that God will break the grip of the enemy over your life, and loose you in the name of Jesus.

If you are in need of financial breakthrough, we stand in agreement with you today for God to open the door that you need to walk through; that you may have the wisdom and follow the steps that God has shown you to take that will help you at this time in your life.

If your child is in need of help in any way, we stand with you today in agreement that the attack against them will be exposed. From their head to their feet, they will be set free from the enemy and his plan to take them out, whether by sickness, drugs, or decisions they have made.

May they chose God’s path, His protection, and His wisdom to keep them safe.

If your marriage is under attack and your family has been divided, we are believing with you today for God to give you wisdom to know what and how to pray for His complete healing and restoration over your home and family situation.

May the enemy’s grip be loosened from you and your family, that there will be no further destruction.

God is faithful to bring healing as we join in one accord, putting our trust in Him and standing on His promises!

Bible Verse of The Day – 1-13-18

Matthew 12:43-45 (NKJV) 43 “When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places, seeking rest, and finds none. 44 Then he says, ‘I will return to my house from which I came.’ And when he comes, he finds it empty, swept, and put in order. 45 Then he goes and takes with him seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter and dwell there; and the last state of that man is worse than the first. So shall it also be with this wicked generation.”

This is an often-overlooked truth that costs a lot of people a large amount of unnecessary misery.

Getting free from evil spirits is something that we all need to have a better understanding of. Otherwise, we remain weak and feeble when it comes to getting free, and helping others get free.

What Jesus was speaking about in the verses above is critical to helping people stay free once they have received their deliverance.

When a person breaks free from any kind of spiritual bondage, the unclean spirit will leave and wander about, looking for a new place to dwell.

At some point, they will almost always return to where they were evicted from, to see if maybe they can enter in again. So, it’s important that we don’t fall for its attempts to come back in. Because if we do, it will also bring others with it. And the results will be worse than before.

From my own personal experience, I can verify that this is 100% true. When I was delivered from asthma, I was also set free from the constant use of an inhaler. That little inhaler had become my “pet”. I took it everywhere with me. I was in bondage to it.

In the days following my deliverance, I began to experience symptoms of an asthma attack again. I never actually had an attack. But the symptoms that would normally lead up to an attack began to show themselves.

My first instinct was to reach for my inhaler. But, instead, I got counsel from my pastors at that time. They recommended that I not use it. So, I followed their counsel (somewhat hesitantly, I have to admit). And I’m so glad I did!

After a few days of ignoring those nagging symptoms, and resisting the urge to use my inhaler, the symptoms completely disappeared forever.

It was only afterward that I understood what was going on. The spirit of infirmity that had been calling me its home was attempting to regain entry. Had I grabbed my inhaler and used it, I would have been admitting that my healing and deliverance was no longer valid.

And, by doing so, I would have opened the door wide for it to come back again. It would have been like rolling out the welcome mat for it.

But, because I resisted, the door stayed shut and it had to look elsewhere to find a new home. 17+ years later I am still 100% free of asthma and I plan on staying that way, by God’s power!

If you’ve been delivered from an addiction, or some other kind of spiritual bondage, be sure to let God help you to be strong, even in those initial days after being set free. Do whatever is necessary to resist the urge to return to old habits.

Those first few days afterward are critical and will set the course for the rest of our lives.

Bible Verse of The Day – 8-21-17

Psalm 139:13 (NKJV) 13 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb.

I want to speak to those today who are in constant battle with shame, guilt, feeling unloved, feeling ugly, unwanted and worthless.

This is a word of knowledge and understanding for you today. You may feel like this because of others mistreating you, picking on you and saying negative things toward you.

At first you didn’t believe them. You didn’t listen. You fought it with everything in you because you knew it wasn’t you. But as it pounded on you, day in and day out, over the years you got tired, and you gave in.

You have received what they have said about you and you have taken it on as truth. You have been sad, angry, depressed and feeling hurt. You try to smile when you’re around people, but the pain in your heart just grows deeper and deeper. You act like nothing is wrong on the outside. But inside, your joy for living has been stolen.

Today you are going to get delivered from this, because deep down inside you know that it is not true. You know that it’s a lie and you will not stand by and be tormented any longer. You will not allow this voice to steal your joy, peace and life. You are done living like this and from now on you are going to live and be who God says you are.

Your Creator calls you “fearfully and wonderfully made”… period. There are no ifs, ands or buts about it. It is what it is; Truth!

Psalm 139:14 (NKJV) 14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well.

If you are going through this today, this prayer is for you.

Dear God in Heaven,

I am sorry for listening and believing the lies that others have spoken about me. Please forgive me. Today I want to believe the truth about me, who You say I am. I want Your help in believing and being all that You have called me to be.

I rebuke the devil and his lies, in Jesus’ name; all that he has been whispering in my ears, causing me to think I am no good, and feeling ashamed of who I am.

Today, is a NEW day and I’m so wanting to be all that You have called me to be and walk in it daily. For You alone, oh Lord, formed and covered me in my Mama’s womb. You alone know me better than any other.

Thank you today, Lord, for Your deliverance and for saving me.

In Jesus’ name I ask. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 5-5-17

James 4:7(NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

Through Jesus Christ, we have victory!!

The devil cannot make us do anything if we belong to Christ. We have been given authority to defeat the enemy in our lives.

Luke 10:19 (NKJV) 19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

We have to choose what God says is good for us, and then we have to do it.

If we are full of lust, and it’s all we think about, it’s no good.

If we love to drink and do drugs and we don’t care if we hurt the people around us, we need to see it and what it is doing and know that it’s no good.

If we love to eat and eat, and have no control over it, we need to understand that, over time, overeating can cause great damage to our health. It can lead to obesity, which can eventually kill us. It’s NO good.

There are so many other bad things we can let control us. However, if we know who we are in Christ, we will know that none of these things can have control over us if we don’t want them to. Period!

That is the key; determining whether or not we want it. Because if we do want it, then it will never stop. And we will never change it. And we will eventually die under the control of that very thing.

We have to see that it is the thing destroying us. We have to ask God, through His Son, Jesus Christ, to help us say no to it and to give us strength, wisdom and deliverance from it.

It takes work and that is why we need to reach a point where we actually develop a hatred toward it, so that we will do all that it takes to get rid of it.

Some of us need to be delivered today from wrong things that we love. We need to understand that they are killing us slowly and ruining our relationships with family and friends.

We are the only one who can make the change. We can cry all we want that we hate it and what it does to us and others, but unless we take the steps to stop it, nothing will happen.

Jesus Christ has won the battle over it already. We just need to ask Him for help and genuinely mean it.

Prayer for deliverance…

Dear God,

Today I come to you with a heart of repentance for the way I have lived my life, for the very things I did to hurt my body. I did this to myself and I’m sorry.

I now want to ask you for help. I need deliverance from the enemy that I have let into my life. I  want to close those doors and shut him out. I want no more of this in my life. Today, I ask to be delivered from drinking, porn, drugs, anger, abuse, lust, jealousy, etc.

I want the life that you want for me. I want to be that man or woman you have called me to be. I know it may take time for me to learn, but I’m willing. In the name of your precious Son, Jesus Christ, please help me.

Father, I ask You to bring the right people and friends around me and to open the doors of opportunity that You have for me, and give me the strength and courage to walk through them.

Thank you Father. I want to do right and I am willing to take one day at a time and follow You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Bible Verse of The Day – 9-7-15

Matthew 4:23 (NKJV) 23 And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease among the people.

I remember the day my husband was healed. It was a Thursday evening and there was a man of God speaking that night who had prayed for many people all over the world who had received healing. He taught us about how the devil can cause a lot of sickness, but that there is deliverance through Jesus Christ our Lord.

It was that night that he was delivered from asthma as he received God’s knowledge of deliverance! Praise be to God!!

Most churches don’t teach on healing or deliverance, and many Christian people are entrapped by the devil’s lies because they never hear the truth. They are living their lives as if they are obligated to carry their infirmities and they are destined to live the rest of their lives with sickness or disease of some type.

Know today, right now, that there is deliverance for you! There is healing and deliverance for your child, your spouse and your family member, through the blood of Jesus Christ. We don’t have to leave this earth with sickness and disease!

Push back the darkness that is causing you or others you know to suffer.

Mark 1:34 (NKJV) 34 Then He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons; and He did not allow the demons to speak, because they knew Him.

Do not let the devil speak to you and tell lies! And if he does speak, shut him up.

How? By rebuking him in the name of Jesus Christ. Declare his attack against your situation NULL and VOID, in the Mighty name of Jesus Christ. And believe Jesus for healing and deliverance today! Amen.

Mark 9:23 (NKJV) 23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

God has set you free. Believe it!
