THEME: Only speak the word
Matthew 8:1-10

Are you among the Christians that pray the kind of prayer the leper prayed in today’s passage. He said to Jesus, “lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean”.to this question Jesus replied, “I am willing, be cleansed.” Immediately, the man’s leprosy was cleansed.

Are you saying to the lord and master, if you are willing, “if you are willing, you can heal my disease; if you are willing, you can make me to prosper; if you are willing you can make me live above sin and immorality.” His answer to you is exactly the same as He gave to the leper; “I am willing, be made whole”.

The willingness of Christ to help you overcome your challenges should never be in doubt. The reason for his death on the cross was to redeem you from the devil’s capacity and empower you to overcome sin, sickness and poverty. If you have received salvation and redemption from the wicked clutches of sin, sickness and poverty.

Not only have you been restored, he has made you an agent for the redemption and restoration of others. He said concerning you in John 14:12 “verily, verily, I say unto you, he that believeth on me, the work that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my father.”

How can you do the works that Jesus did? By saying the words he would say; and doing the things he would do under similar circumstances. Jesus lives in you and you are now a mere physical vessel through which he continues to do the works for which he came to the earth. The words you speak are powerful as the words Jesus speaks.

PRAYER: pray for a revelation of who you are in Christ
Ask the lord to intervene in your immediate challenges

CONFESSION: I carry GOD everywhere I go. I turn his power loose whenever I declare his word.

Can you ruin your destiny?

God had something in mind when He created you, right? But what if you’ve screwed up? Dropped out? Quit before it was over? Maybe you decided to do your own thing, it didn’t work out, and now you’re just sucking air and hoping there’s still hope. Guess what? There is! For God’s gifts and his call can never be withdrawn. (Romans 11:29 NLT) You don’t even have to start over. Every single thing you failed at? God will use it. (Romans 8:28) Every shot you called that was way off? God will repurpose it. (Proverbs 19:21) Every weakness you thought you had to hide? God’s power will show through it. (2 Corinthians 12:9) God created you for good works. As soon as you quit the past and sell out for Jesus, those works will happen. (Ephesians 2:10) He’s establishing you, step by step. (Proverbs 16:9) God’s a good Father. He knows how to bring you back and take you further than you ever imagined. (Ephesians 3:20) Spend some time really reflecting on these truths. What do you secretly hope is p...

Marriage Booster: Do You Still Love Her/Him ?

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; Ephesians 5:25 KJV "This is what I love about you" In the beginning you love everything about him. You are captivated by his six pack, his spirit of adventure, and his lion’s heart. In the beginning you love everything about her. You go crazy with the swing of her hips, a wink or a chewy chocolate cake baked especially for you. One day you wake up. Daily routine has shattered your rose-tinted glasses. “His six pack is not so hot anymore, instead his joints creak with every move.” Or: “It would be better if she swung her hips into a gym one of these days.” You realize: “My partner has changed.” Fortunately! He isn’t standing still. The problem is not the change but rather, that you are a creature of habit. It is your task to rediscover your partner and to simultaneously not forget why you went up the aisle with sparkling eyes to marry your bride/groom. MARRIAGE BOOSTER Write d...

Called to Be Peculiar

I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. (John 17:15-16) Being peculiar. That's not something most of us work to achieve, is it? But, you know, we should. God has called us to be peculiar—to stand out from the rest of the world as living proof of His power and His love (1 Peter 2:9). He doesn't, for example, want us to share the ailments of the world. He doesn't want us to share their sickness and poverty and failure. He's never wanted that for His people. He gave us a physical illustration of that during the time the nation of Israel was held captive in Egypt. Pharaoh had refused to set the Israelites free, so God had allowed a thick darkness to cover the whole land. The darkness was so dreadful throughout Egypt that no one moved for three days. "But," says Exodus 10:23, "all the children of Israel had light in their ...
