#CROSS

Understanding What #Jesus Christ Did Between the #Cross and the Throne Through The Attached #Cartoon.
Titled:  Acquitted.
Box 1: The Entire race of man fell Through Adam and had to face the universal court of justice. Roman 3:23 (All have sinned and come short of the Glory of God)
Box2: Life is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11), and so only Blood can be used for sacrifice of Atonement. And so the Law and the Prophets came but they can only cover sin, they cannot purge it (Hebrews 10:4). The case looked hopeless. There was need for blood that could purge sins.
Box3: And so, man was sentenced to death, Death reigned from Adam till the coming of Jesus Christ.
Box 4: Jesus Christ, having perfected eternal salvation on the cross, went to Hell And took the keys of #DEATH and was declared by the universal court as an able substitute to take our place (1 John 3:8), He appeared on the scene,’ having blotted out all the handwriting of ordinances that was against us which was contrary to us….took it out of the way, nailing it to the cross’…(Colossians 2:14)
Box5: HE MADE YOU FREE!
Box 6: What do you have to say now too?

get the #power

Get The #Power!
Beloved, to be  a successful  Christian/Minister manifesting the power and gifts of God in your area of calling, or to maintain your  deliverance from afflictions, you must be endued with Power that can only come from above (Acts 1:8). And it is important to know about the power resources available to you by covenant promise so that you can operate in them.
i have a compulsory assignment for the readers of this book. It is very important you partake in it so that you can move your ministry and your life to the next level! #God bless you!
 Friend! the bible says that man was made a Lord of the earth while Heaven is mans abode  Gen 1:28-30 Psalm 115:16. This transfer of power from God to man is man’s  Dominion of the earth.
To dominate is taken from the word DOMINION which means; To control, To rule, To govern, To put under subjection!.
The incentives available to man in this contract was #SUPERNATURAL WIDOM  and UNBROKEN FELLOWSHIP. The #WISDOM  was exhibited in ADAM  naming all the animals including the wild animals without harm. Gen 2:19-20. The Fellowship gave him access to unlimited  heavenly resources which was to help in the administration of the earth. All the #ANGELIC  beings in heaven were at his disposal and command until he fell from this grace Gen 3:9-20
The result of the fall in the garden  was inferiority complex, fear of the unknown and spiritual alienation from God and heavenly forces.
The initial supernatural  wisdom was displayed  by God  in some men(control over wild beast without fear) i.e Noah  in Gen 7:14 , Solomon in   2Chronicles 9:19.
Moses and Abraham also enjoyed direct fellowship with God in different dispensations.
How does this apply  to receiving spiritual power?   Mark 16 verse 15-18 gives a scripture that showcases restoration of  all the powers of the dominion of ADAM  to the regenerated man. However, most of the people who this authority is bequeathed to, do not operate in power that is already available. Why is this?
Firstly, if we examine   deeply the  command in the above Scripture, we will see that we need the anointing of the Holy Ghost  in 3 key areas:
1 .  To preach with conviction so that sinners are brought to repentance.,
2.  To heal the sick
3.  To cast out demons
Healing the sick and casting out demons will help to preach with conviction so that sinners are brought to repentance. This command is general, so an average Christian should be able to fulfill this  commission.
Why then do people who are given this command find it hard to operate in it? The answer is found in what was lost by the fall in the garden and the consciousness of the teachings of Jesus Christ which I will like you to read very attentively below.
There were basically 3 sins that was committed  in the garden at the fall . They are:
LUST OF EYES    Gen 3 vs 6 ,  1 john 2 vs 15-17LUST OF THE FLESH     Gen 3:vs 6,  1 john2 vs 15-17
PRIDE OF LIFE.   Gen 3 vs 6,  1 john 2 vs 15-17
THE DOMINION LOST BY MAN AS A RESULT OF THIS SINS ARE RESTORED AT NEWBIRTH IN JESUS.
When Adam dropped the Baton of Dominion, the law and prophets could not handle it to perfection, JESUS PICKED THE BATON FOR ME AND YOU! And you are licensed  to operate like him! JOHN 14:12
In praying for the sick for instance for healing,  most people still manifest the sin that led to the fall of our  first parents and the fear and inferiority that followed when they were driven out of the garden. You must be very confident that the name of Jesus does not disappoint. If the sick is not Healed by your prayer, you have not failed! Jesus have not failed! If you feel you have failed, that is PRIDE OF LIFE. It MAY  just means that you need more information from the Holy SPIRIT.
As at the time  you lay hands on the sick to pray, you may not have received any direction from the Holy Spirit, but as you persevere in the prayer, you are sure to receive direction if your faith does not waver. The major problem in this is that people want to see the healing manifesting in few seconds and if it does not, they are disappointed  and they stop because they operated in PRIDE. We are not to feel  disappointed if we do not see instant healing because we are just SONS who are doing the biding of our LORD. PRIDE exhibited at such times shows we are still in the state of the fallen man.
There are several things that will determine if the sick will be healed. Most times, you may need to work on the faith of the sick to bring him to the level of believing, sometimes, you may discover that an un -confessed sin can be a hindrance , you may also discern and cast out demon before healing will take place e.t.c.
One key thing is that you must be dead to personal or general  opinion which is PRIDE and you must not be driven by lust for gains.
There are several healing ministration by Jesus in the scripture and  they did not follow the same pattern. In Mark 8:22, people brought a blind man to Jesus and prescribed he be healed by being touched, but the Healing process  of this man was so elaborate that Jesus led him outside the town and even instructed him not to come back to the town after the healing.
A lot of times healing can be in an instant! But sometimes, he bears long with us Luke 18:7b. why does he bear long? There are some powers in heavenlies/ demons  who might be  doing some spiritual negotiations i.e  Mattew  8: 29, Mark 5 vs 1-15, or are asking questions about the healing.  SOME POWERS ASK WHO THE KING OF GLORY IS!!! (PSALM 24:10)
The most important thing we need  to bear in mind when you are confronted with a case where you need God to move is to BE CONSCIOUS OF YOUR RESTORED DOMINION IN JESUS CHRIST.
The baptism of the Holy Spirit BRINGS THE TREE OF LIFE INSIDE OF YOU AND KEEPS THE FLAMING SWORD (GENESIS 3:24 )OUT OF YOU.
THE AUDACITY OF FAITH EXPLOIT HAS COME! YOU ARE NO LONGER IN THE STATE OF THE FALLEN MAN!
In the gospel of Luke Chapter  4, the temptation of Jesus by the devil was not in the physical presence of Lucifer the fallen being. It was one by the activity of mind binding demons. These demons are  very serious ministerial hindrance  to people who are being used by God. They speak to your mind  like your own thoughts or even speak with your  mouth and you will think they are your own thoughts . They did the same to Peter the Apostle,( Mathew 16:22) so DO not think they can not do the same to you!
These beings are sent to belittle your ministry by the enemy, their primary function is to make you  less than what God has prepared you for! Remember you are the Royal priest of the most high! 1 Peter 2 :9.

not #death

Sickness Not #Death!
When certain #ailments termed by Doctors as terminal are mentioned, most times, what readily comes to mind is that the victim will likely die within a specified time frame and will be requiring constant therapy and medication as the case may be. This is however not so scripturally, as the bible makes a clear demarcation to sicknesses unto death or not.
There is a spirit   in operation that works to bring about death and hell, and there is spirit of infirmity that reigns where sicknesses are concerned. The ideal situation of death actually is by #God when he takes away the breadth and the believer sleeps…
Satan the enemy of man has sold out a lot of lies to mankind about sicknesses and death to create fear that leads to bondage. Hebrews 2:15 declares #freedom from bondage to those who have been through fear of death all their lifetime subject to bondage.
There are mysteries in death that have not been taught by many conservative Christians and this has brought a lot of problems and torment to children of God. People have ignorantly submitted to death when they should have come out gallantly to testify. My people perish for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6).
Death for a child of God is a home call, it is not supposed to be in sickness. The Word says ‘with long life will i satisfy him and show him my salvation’ Psalm 91 verse 16.
The spirit of death and #hell can capitalize on sickness and subsequent verdict of physicians based on scientific theories of the past to put a victim in bondage to accept a death sentence. Once he does, a legality is established in the realm of the spirit and the spirit of death can strike.
Beloved, for death to occur, the following things must be accomplished  in the spirit as written in Ecclesiastes Chapter 12 verse 6
‘ Or ever the silver cord be loosed, or the golden bowl be broken, or the pitcher be broken at the fountain, or the wheel broken at the cistern. 7 Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it’.
A person can be dangerously sick, but if all the above is not spiritually fulfilled, he will not die. However, when grievous sickness occurs, there is tendency for mind binding demons to sell the idea of death to the victim, who will accept this as his fate in his soul which is the seat of emotions, drive and will and then a spiritual legality can be established  and then the spirit is broken and wounded, Proverb 17 verse 22… and the spirit of death can come in.
Sounds strange? But that is the scriptural truth.
I will share a real experience of this with you. Sometime ago, a minister’s wife  gave birth to  a son in the hospital and by the following day, some complications arose and the boy was placed on #oxygen in the intensive section, he was diagnosed to have heart failure while the mother who had just gone through a caesarean section was on admission in the hospital lay helpless. The minister alongside with a fellow Christian sister prayed strategic prayers for the life of this boy by disallowing all the parameters of death to be fulfilled in him and by the third day, he was out of the intensive care unit. The Boy’s heart was checked on the third day and was declared perfect!
Jesus said he had the power to lay down his life and to take it back! What an interesting thing? Being born again offers to you a series of advantage you have probably not thought of. Paul the apostle came back to live from death as often as he wanted (2 Corinthians 11 verse 23 ‘in death oft…” He did this till he gave himself up willingly 2 Timothy 4 verse 6.
What an exciting life!
We are to continue living till we are satisfied Psalm 91 vs 16. Old age is sweet! It would not be in sickness.

beyond #dreams and #visions 

mandate of #darkness

The Mandate of The Powers of #Darkness.
God made the universe with a lot of creatures that will help it to run, however at the fall, many fallen #angels whose end of doom is already known to them, teamed up with the #devil to fight man to make sure as many will end up in the same damnation as they are. The mandate is to kill, steal and destroy! John 10:10.
These powers being #spiritual beings have access to the pre-destined plan of God over the lives of several people. The blue-print of the life they have seen gives them the idea of the type of weapon to use against different individuals, community and places. Why do they do this? They are only trying to see that they recruit as many to fall spiritually and enter damnation as they are… they are vengeful and non-repentant, they are unrelenting and very meticulous and calculating. If they know a certain individual will be useful to project their ideas and will not be a threat to them if he is rich, they will assist such in his pursuits of riches, the riches will however be with the absence or true joy, but if they know a person or place of thing will be dangerous to them in splendor and abundance, they will fight such with poverty to get the attention.
Who are these powers?
Witchcraft.
The origin of #witchcraft is rebellion which started with the rebellion of satan against God Almighty.{1 Samuel 15 vs 23}.  Witchcraft enforces domination and control over the victim. It always wants the victim to bend to its wishes, and when the otherwise happens, it will aim to destroy such a victim.
These #powers operate in different environments in different ways, but the major aim is to bring about death and destruction. They can practice out of body experience by projecting their spirit to meet with other spirits in a designated coven where they inflict pains by making and enforcing evil #decrees on their victims. However, some people whose spirit might not agree with this program can be unconsciously initiated to still perform this same purpose without their physical knowledge. Such people sometime see themselves in strange gatherings in dreams. Some operate by evil imaginations…..Psalm 2 :why do the heathen rage and the people imagine a vain thing…..
Witchcraft can project very strong imaginations that works….. 2 Corinthians 10 verse 4-6  gives us an insight into the defeat of these demoniacal  powers.
In very poor #environments, witchcraft can operate to really oppress its victims under instrumentality of poverty and hardship to wreck more havoc and bring forth a lot more distressing situations and even deaths, however developed societies are not immune to the operations of witchcraft as they sponsor evil thoughts and #suicidal tendencies with very little excuses.
Witchcraft sponsors evil decisions that results into sorrows, tears and blood despite sophistication in advanced environments.
Note the following about witchcraft:
1.        It is responsible for loss of peace 2kings9:22
2.        It encourages worship of false gods and destructive sacrifices 2 chronicles 33:6
3.        It destroys nations and territories by satanic bargains.
Many individuals are being initiated into witchcraft consciously or unconsciously and are agents of pain and so they become agents of pain and sorrow while they also bear the pain and sorrow as well.
I have encountered witchcraft in diverse dimensions and I can read a lot of their operations.
Familiar Spirit. As the name implies are spirits that knows a lot about an individual from the ancestry. These spirits were able to find their place because of the history of idolatry in that individual. They have spiritual legality that was established at one point or the other, with or without the consent of the victim. Familiar spirit can be an imperfect duplicate and produce an almost complete information about its victim at every point in time.
In 1  Samuel 28:15-19, we can see that a certain woman with familiar spirit was able to access to some divine information for saul. This is through the spirit of divination which is an abomination unto God.
The familiar spirit has powers to penetrate higher realm than the witchcraft powers and to project dangerous things into peoples spiritual lives sometimes through dreams, thus making life for the victim one of trouble, problems, challenges and sorrows.
Spiritual Spouses.
This is a very serious problem that unfortunately many people are very unaware of…The origin of this problem is found in Genesis 6 verse 1-2.
 ‘and it came to pass when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair and they took them wives of all which they chose’.
 The beings referred to as sons of God in the above scriptures were angels that violated spiritual principles and began to pollute men spiritually. They are the ones referred to in Jude verse 6
‘and the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in the everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day’.
These powers are responsible for lovemaking in the dream! Love making was not designed to take place in the dream. It is a God ordained exercise for the body for procreation. Lovemaking is the body and soul (emotions) at work, and not the spirit.

These beings described above were the beings that Jesus went and preached to in 1 peter 3:19  after his resurrection. The judgment of this beings are sealed.
Any form of love making in the dream, whether with known or unknown faces usually drains the victim of spiritual energy and introduces regrets and sorrows.
However, because the perpetrators of this spiritual violence’ doom is sealed, they can be cast out and their operation can be ceased only in Jesus name.
Curses and Covenants As Destroyers of Joy.
Both curses and covenants have the abilities to destroys future and present joy in the lives of their victims.
Curses are defined in oxford dictionary as a magic word or phrase that has magical powers to make bad or evil happen. The challenges some people are going through at the moment was  designed long ago by the instrumentality of curse. Curses have the divine ability to pass through several generations until it is convenient for it to act. A present cause of sorrow may have been predetermined for hundreds or thousands of years before manifestation. It is the reason for some peculiar types of mishaps in form of sickness or one form of tragedy or the other being experienced by some certain people.
Lets look at a very good scriptural example: Joshua 6 verse 26 Joshua the servant of God pronounced a curse
26‘ and Joshua adjured them at that time, saying, cursed be the man before the Lord, that riseth up and buildeth this city jericho: he shall lay the foundation thereof in his firstborn and in his youngest son shall he sep up the gates of it”
This curse was brought to fulfillment in approximately 600 years after it was pronounced in 1 kings 16 verse 34
‘in his days did Hiel the bethelite build Jericho: he laid the foundation thereof in Abiram his firstborn and set up the gates thereof in his youngest son segub, according to the word of the Lord, which he spake by Joshua the son of Nun.
Covenants on the other hand are agreements with strong legal backing. Let me point at this stage that there was first a very strong legal system spiritually before men began to develop legal systems in the physical. The bible itself is a book of covenant of God’s dealings with men in it’s entirety and the expectations and demands of this legal system is well spelt out as well as the price paid or to be paid if one side is defaulting. People suffer the misdeeds of others who have broken one covenant or the other in their generation.
Beloved, human beings may forget this covenant or even die before a covenant is executed, but spirits do not die, they ensure that a covenant is duly enforced.
Many Christians have misinterpreted the grace given to them by the redemption work as believing it has exempted  them from curses and covenants because of the finished work on the cross…..
This is true, but you have an obligation to fulfill to bring about the manifestation in your own case, that is why Jesus says we have to bind on earth before it is bound in Heaven…. Matthew 18 verse 18.
Just as it is your choice to accept Jesus as your Lord and savior, so also, it is your choice to remain under a curse or to be loosed from it…
The subject of curses and covenants cannot be fully discussed in this book but this is just to establish the fact that most things we may just wave off as accidental occurrence have very serious spiritual backing and mandate.

your #healing

#Checklist For Your Healing!
Beloved, it is very important for you to know that God is ever willing to do us good. Ever  before #Christ came, the laws and the prophet were in place to guide us so that we would not fall into the hand on the adversary, the devil, the prince of this world, the author of sickness and curses. When the dispensation of the law and the prophets ended, he sent the prince of peace, Jesus Christ  as our  escape route from the prince of this world. He is ever willing to heal you, that is why he says ‘I am the God that Heals you’ (Exodus 15 verse 26).
I will point out to you that there is no single method that can work for every healing case since the spirit of   infirmity came in through different means. The Healings recorded in the bible came through different methods of healing ministration. I will like to  mention at this stage, that the Holy #Spirit is the healing partner that reveals to the healing minister, what to do and healing follows. He is our ultimate partner!
 However, in many cases, where the affliction proves  tougher than what the person praying for healing  envisages, especially where doctors have declared the case to be terminal, I will advise that  you to run through the following checklist of fifteen things and see if there are areas that you are deficient  and make necessary amends. Some of this areas might require that you get relevant books/materials to sharpen your spirit knowledge.  I believe that by the time you are through, healing would result in Jesus name!

1.    Get off the lane of #ignorance of the Word of God, get enough healing scriptures into your spirit, get rid of junks in your spirit and replace them with the Word. You may need to  buy tapes of healing messages and listen. Deeply meditate on the areas of healing in the Bible. Faith comes by hearing…..Romans 10:17

2.   Unbelief is Spiritual #Criminality; God’s love and mercy in making Jesus available for us in grossly undermined in unbelief. In just a second, imagine the son you love so much, look you in the face and say ‘Daddy,  I don’t trust you’ . that is how God feels when we cant just take him at his Word. Matthew 13:58, Mark 6:6

3.    Unforgiveness is also one of the spiritual ropes tying people down to affliction. When you pray to God for mercy to be healed, you are in effect asking the Lord to forgive you, however, your being forgiven is tied to your willingness to forgive others. Matthew 11 verse 25-26. When the Lord forgives you like the sick of the palsy, healing results! Matthew 9.

4.   Lack of #Diligence: The heart is the centre of all the factors that will make you connect the Almighty God for your healing. Proverb 4:23 says  You must be diligent from the heart! There must be a resolve and singleness of purpose.


5.   Pride will prevent anyone from receiving from the Lord. Pride will disallow you from making amends where necessary. Proverbs 16:18.

6.   Lack of #Persistence: When believing God for healing especially in very serious cases, there might be need for persistence at the alter of prayer. There are powers in the realm of the spirit that may not allow some deliverance to take place without continuous bombardment in the spirit. The Lord also sometimes bears long with us. Read the story of  The widow in Luke Chapter 18 verse 1-8.


7.   Unconfessed Sin: This is one of the reasons that many people are not healed from very serious afflictions. Some people are just not ready to confess and let go of secret sins that they committed. Satan can bring up legalities and accusations to strengthen affliction. Ecclesiastes 10:8 ’ He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him’. An unconfessed sin will open the Hedge(spiritual covering).

8.   Neglecting The #Poor: Isaiah 58 verse 1-8 lists the condition of a true fast, and how the sick would be magnanimous to the poor in fasting and healing would result. Proverbs 19 vs 17 says ‘whoever gives to the poor, lends to the Lord and the Lord would pay him.

9.   Grieving the Holy Spirit: #Jesus Christ left us with the Holy Spirit, and he is our ultimate partner in the ministry. He is the revealer of what the Lord will have us do to get the divine the information for healing to result. He can be blasphemed. The bible makes it clear that such sins are unforgivable.

10.                Involving in #Occult: God hates idolatry with passion. Any past involvement in idolatry must be confessed and renounced for some certain cases of afflictions to give way. I believe this is one of cases that results in the toughest afflictions. Deliverance is required , and when this is done healing results.

11.                Presence of Evil Spirit.
In many instances that Jesus Christ healed, he cast out demons and the infirmity leaves. Not  all sicknesses however, are manifestation of demons. Mark Chapter 9 verse 25-27 gives a clear case where the demons left and the victim was healed. Many terminal sicknesses are manifestation of evil spirit.

12.                Negative Confession: The devil relies on the confession of many people to keep them in captivity, The Bible makes it clear in Hebrews 3:1 that Jesus Christ is the High Priest of our confession who has passed into the heavens. when you see that your healing is perfected in the Word of God, you may not have seen the physical manifestation, use the power of faith to release positive confession and take steps to claim your healing by force.

13.                Waiting To See Before Believing: You can not have #faith when you also choose to protect your fear.  Mark 11 verse 23-24 says ‘For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe those things which he saith shall come to pass: he shall have whatsoever he saith”. There are activities of legalities in the realm of the spirit between confession and possession, that is however not the subject in this book. We are to maintain our confession of faith and our healing shall be accomplished.

14.                Inability To Pray And To Fast: I mentioned earlier that there are levels of affliction that requires fasting. Matthew 17:21 Mark 9:29. The flesh will have to subdued for the spirit to communicate with the spirit of God John 4:24! The flesh will protest and want to have his way, but we are to put the flesh under, to be able to cry to the Father of spirits, the Almighty God, who is ever willing to bring about our deliverance!

15.                Presence of Family Curse: The presence of Ancestral and family curse can be a serious hindrance to healing. The bible however makes it clear that ‘if any man is in Christ, old things have passed away’ however you still have to boldly affirm this in prayer for deliverance, otherwise it will not be applicable in your case.
There is a scriptural provision in the scripture Galatians 3 verse 13-14, but if you cannot simply accept this as  referring to you, then it cannot work. As you affirm, I see you healed and restored  in Jesus name!

More About The #Disciples Of Christ….
Humans are inquisitive beings by nature. We always want to know what our contract with #God holds to be sure we are well considered. Abraham needed  God to really explain to him about the OLD contract. Genesis 15:8. He wanted to know if he would really inherit the promise..
The Disciples were equally inquisitive. At different times, they wanted to know if they were protected in the new #covenant with  Jesus. These guys are no fools to die the way they did. They saw the man they revered so much ascend to #Heaven as he promised and they knew they were protected in the contract.
What about us? I mean you and me? Remember Christ told the disciples to wait in the upper room for the promise of the Holy Ghost? And when the Holy Ghost came, the promise was sealed. The #GUARANTEE OF THIS PROMISE IS THE #HOLY GHOST!

How To Obtain Divine  Healing.(Part2 )
#Reasons, #Senses  and #facts are the means to contact the #intellectual realm and they form the activity of the #soul. Man became a living soul as God breathed into him at creation( Genesis 2:7). As a result of the fall, man is much attuned to the soul instead of the spirit.
A new man is the one who accepts the Word of God as it is spoken, believe the Word, process the Word and the Word become part of his existence.
#Imagination against healing is also an enemy( 2 Corinthians 10:5), we must cast down imagination contrary to healing…
God is contacted by the Spirit because he is a spirit himself .John 4:24. When the Word of healing is processed successfully, your feelings do not matter, healing is what results!

#Gods #noble plan for #creation

Ques: What was #God's plan in creating man?
Ans: God wanted to connect his kingdom in heaven to the earth, he created the heaven and earth so he could reign in both heaven and earth. That is why Christ came to preach 'thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven' Matthew 6. He made man his earthly representative as he bestowed unto Adam, the responsibility of naming all other creatures. (Gen 2:19)
God’s plan was #noble, he made Adam a free #moral agent, so he could effectively run the earth without being pushed around. The fall of man through Adam was a well calculated treason by Adam and Eve to usurp the authority of their maker. Through this fall, #satan became the pseudo ruler of the earth. Jesus never disagreed when satan told him in his temptation that everything had been given to him. Luke 4 verse 5-6
‘5And the devil taking him up into an high mountain, shewed  unto him the kingdom of the world in a moment of time 6 and the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me: and to whomsoever I will I give it’
#Jesus Christ agrees that the world belongs to the devil, that’s why he didn’t try to correct him on these statement! You would ask? How and when did the devil become the owner of the earth? The answer is that Adam sold it to him through sin and disobedience.
Christ did not contend with the devil over the ownership, rather he came to break his(the devil) power by his earthly assignment and death on the cross… He has become the author of salvation to the ones who INDIVIDUALLY  decide to detach to THE KINGDOM OF THE ALMIGHTY GOD..The invitation is an open one. John 1:12


Ques: What nature was man made? What were his qualities?
Ans: God breathed in to man and he became a living #soul. Gen 2: 7 This made the first Adam predominantly soulish- a slave of his senses, i.e eyes, ears , taste, feel, smell. He is a  #terrestrial  being and the spirit in him was subject to his accepted master. By the fall, the spirit was already subject to the devil and it began to strive with God. Gen 6:3.
Ques: How can man acquire a celestial spirit?
Ans: This is only made possible to redeemed saints who professed faith in Christ Jesus.
Had man a quickening spirit, 1 Cor 15:45, He would have possessed a #celestial body which is immortal, but he did not eat the fruit  of the tree of life Gen3:22 which in the sense realm could have given him this ability before he was driven out of the garden.
God has both terrestrial and celestial body, so he functions in heaven and earth. And Christ, took up his celestial body after resurrection, because he has  a quickening  spirit, that is different from that of man. This enabled him to resurrect in the same earthly body.
At new birth, we acquire the quickening spirit which manifests after physical death ,that gives us the eternal life 1 John 5 vs 12. At physical death, we pick up our celestial bodies. 1 Cor 15. This is no longer in the sense realm, but in the faith realm, because we are now justified by faith ..Romans 5.

Ques: How was eve deceived?
Ans: Eve was deceived  through the same thing that still deceives many Christians today. Which is contention with the word of God. God gave them direct instructions but they followed the voice of the stranger. The serpent knew that the spirit in man is subject to mastership {psalm 51:12} Man is a free spirit. He is a free moral agent, so satan simply re-analysed   God's word and Eve gave in.. Gen3:6.
The major points to note in this matter were the things that informed the decision of Eve.
1.    The woman saw that the fruit was good for food[lust of flesh] 1 john 2;15-17
2.    She saw that it was pleasant to the eyes[lust of eyes]1 john 2 ;15-17
3.    She learnt it would make her wise[pride of life] 1 john 2;15-17
The devil's real mission is to counter the word of God and provide an alternative that will get man into trouble.
Ques: Does this have a root in the New Testament of The Bible?
Ans: Jesus is the Word of God manifested in the flesh  John 1:14 and he being the Word himself gave his own analysis as the sower of the word in Mark 4:14-19. The summary of this scripture is the same with the above. When the word of God is sown, if any of the above three things(Lust) are present, it will definitely choke the word.
One can have all the good things of life and live for Christ, if the Word is treasured.

Beloved, the world is presently going through a lot of crisis and unfortunately, with all the wonderful promises that Jesus gave the believers in the scripture, the believers are also going through all these woes. Christian marriages are crashing, businesses of professed Christians are on downturn, Christians are dying of terminal diseases, Bad habits are not given up etc. The list is endless .One question you should ask yourself  is this, if am truly a child of God, why are am I going through  what I am  presently going through? Does it mean that those promises are not for me? I am going to take you through a journey of faith that will end all those problems, calamities and afflictions in Jesus name.
There is an assurance of faith you must have if you are going through the above..(to be continued.... )

The Three #Buildings.
The human #being is made up of three buildings, namely the #Spirit, #Soul and Body.
2 Corinthians 5  from verse 1 says ‘For we know that if our #earthly house of this tabernacle is dissolved, we have a building of God, and house not made with  hands #eternal from heaven’
The earthly house referred to here is the body. The body can be remodeled the way we want, we can even do plastic #surgery to make our bodies to our taste, the body can also be subjected to the wants of our soul, but it can be dissolved by #sickness and perish like a  pack of cards!
This scripture goes on to say, there is a building of God, a house not made with hands, eternal from heaven …..
Your Spirit cannot be remodeled with hands. It cannot be harmed with hands, it cannot be re shaped by hands. Have you ever wondered why some people are so feeble and sickly but they keep on living? And some people look so well but they are suddenly struck down and die? Why do the healing of some people shock the Doctors and make medical  theories sound unreal? The answer is that, though they were sick but their Spirit sustained their infirmity. The bible says the Spirit of man will sustain his infirmity but a broken spirit, who can bear?....Proverb 18 verse 14
The third building is your soul. The soul serves as an intermediary between the body and the spirit in both sustaining the infirmity or receiving your healing. The soul is the information ministry that receives information, processes and #transmits to the Spirit. It is the seat of your emotions, will and drive.
It is from your soul you receive information such as ‘do you know this sickness kills fast’? you must die now, no one survives this type of illness’
Your soul has the capacity to store negative or positive database to use in periods like this. As it has the ability to store negative things, it also has the ability to store positive things as well. It has the ability to accept the Word of God and transmit same to your Spirit. Words such as ‘He was wounded for my transgression, bruised for my iniquities, the chastisement of my peace was upon him, and by his stripes I am  HEALED! Isaiah 53:5. Your soul has the capability to cling unto the Word of the Lord which says ‘I am the Lord that #heals you’ Exodus 15 vs. 26(AMP).
If you were taught to make positive confessions only without a conviction in your soul, if your soul only goes for negative information without corresponding effort to get positive testimonies of what God did in the days of Bible, and what he still does now, if you are not committed to pondering over the testimonies of God related to your situation, your soul will be fed with junks and the Healing works you desire might not come!
Have you read about the man of God called Smith Wiggleworth that was healed of appendicitis and later had kidney stones? He lived with kidney stones for six years and was eventually healed, but while he lived with kidney stones, he was still used as a vessel to visit several countries  and heal many others. How did he get the strength? He did because the spirit was not sick!
Have you heard of Kenneth Hagin, who was deathly sick of deformed heart and left to die at seventeen but was miraculously healed by believing God’s word on his sick bed and later went on to become a healing minister and lived on till the Lord took him at eighty-three?
I have personally been healed of hypertension, heart palpitation, and many other ailments by appropriating the Word of God by faith.
What keeps a man living on when his body is giving all the evidence that he should have died is the building of the spirit! When the building of the spirit is fed with the right information from the soul building, and the information is processed and accepted, Healing results!
Sometimes the Spirit is healed, but it takes the body sometime to regain its composure, if this is the case, we need to continuously take a stand in the Spirit that the Healing is done. Seeing in the eyes of the Spirit that the building of God which is in you  is healed because the maker  has affirmed that ‘I AM THE LORD THAT HEALS YOU’

higher step in the school of #faith

Beloved, Your coming across this message is divine and timely, no matter when you get it because heaven is about to step into your case and mould you to the shape that your creator originally designed. Amen. It is a tragedy that a lot of people are not following God"s original design for their lives, some are what their parents want them to be, some are what the society want them to be, some are what the enemies want them to be and a lot more what friends want them to be, but I prophesy to your life, that as you follow the series of these messages, you will be transformed in the name of Jesus. The Bible is the perfect manual to run the life of man as it is the trusted word from the creator who says we are his workmanship created for good works. Ephesians 2:10. For the next twelve months, we will be looking at Twelve areas in the School of the #Spirit Starting with #Faith, on to #Healing, #Spiritual Gifts, #Heavenly #Visions, Prayer, #Holy Spirit, Eternity/Salvation, #Spiritual Power, Provoking Blessings/ Prosperity Without Compromising Righteousness, Visions and Dreams, Walking in the miraculous, Deliverance/Defeating demonic Strongholds. We believe that these teachings will ultimately bless your life and give you an eternal hope that we have already. In these very edition, we will be discussion faith in a deeper context. The world is perishing because of the problem of faith, because we are Justified by faith in the act of omnipotence of the creator(Romans 5 Vs 1.
And it is this faith that gives us ultimate peace with God, and answers all lives questions. It is by faith we have ACCESS TO GRACE THAT MAKES US TO KEEP STANDING. (ROMANS 5 Vs 2). Faith is not cheap talk, it is a journey! But it is the best route to the best of what eternity offers. I personally can testify that faith is the thing! Now let"s examine the greatest enemies of faith.Please read meditatively with your bible by your side to digest the following scriptural references. At the fall (Gen 3:22) in the garden, man who was created soulish (sense conscious) Gen 2:7, was left at the mercy of his 5 senses (see, taste, feel , smell or touch) and every contact that he has with the world and everything he knows about the world is through these five senses. To aid his senses in search for reality, man has developed the microscope, telescope and spectroscope, yet, these instruments have only aided his senses in contact with the world around him. However, he has discovered that there is a spiritual world i.e. (dreams) that he can not contact/control through his senses, he knows also that the universe is held by a force that he can not explain through his senses, then, in his quest to dissolve mysteries, he delves into psychology, Christian science, new age, philosophies, myths, and several religions but all could not contact God and could not unravel the problem of sin and eternity. Then in his foolishness, he concludes that God must be a kind of universal mind. All the above gave birth to the sense knowledge that has been the problem of man. Sense knowledge can not contact God. God is a Spirit and can only be contacted in the realm of the spirit. (John 4:24) 2 Cor. 4vs.18 makes us understand that "anything that is seen is temporal" while the unseen realities are the things that have eternal value. Once the senses can have a grasp of a thing or an action, it does not have eternal value.
Sense knowledge has limited man"s walk of faith with the God "WHO QUICKENETH THE DEAD AND CALLETH THOSE THINGS WHICH BE NOT AS THOUGH THEY WERE" (Rom 4:17). The God that has called forth these things has given us a knowledge that is higher than sense knowledge and it is called the REVELATION KNOWLEDGE. The revelation knowledge requires that men will belief first before they see. Man however is so sense ruled that he wants to see before he believes. The foolish thing in these is that "SCIENTIFIC THEORIES ARE FIRSTLY BITS AND PIECES OF GUESSWORK CALLED HYPOTHESIS BEFORE IT IS ACCEPTED AS THEORY" and this is the backbone of today"s inventions that man has trusted so much. The "REVELATION KNOWLEDGE" also requires that man will first receive God"s Word and believe and act upon the Word to see results, (Jeremiah 1:12) says I will hasten my word to perform it. But man has kicked against this revelation knowledge and has suffered for it greatly. We will share two common examples in the scripture now. In Luke 17 vs. 11-19, some lepers went to meet Christ to be healed and he didn"t lay hands on them to heal them as expected, but he told them TO GO AND SHOW THEMSELVES TO THE PRIEST, AND ON THEIR WAY THEY WERE HEALED.NOTE THAT AS AT WHEN THESE PEOPLE LEFT JESUS, THEY WERE NOT HEALED BUT WHEN THEY ACTED ON HIS WORD, THEY RECEIVED THE HEALING. WE CANNOT PRESCRIBE TO GOD THE EXACT WAY WE WANT HIM TO MOVE IN OUR SITUATION BUT WE CAN MOVE HIM BY OUR ACT OF FAITH AND UNWAVERING TRUST IN HIS WORD. The man of God, Smith Wigglesworth said "if the spirit does not move me, I move the spirit". In the case of Jesus Christ encounter with Peter in Luke 5 vs. 5, "Peter who happened to be a professional fisherman said to Christ "master, we have toiled all night, nevertheless, at your word, I will let down my net" NOTE : AT THY WORD. Christ is the "WORD MADE FLESH" that answers all questions on the totality of our existence. THE WORLD IS HELD TOGETHER BY THE WORD OF HIS POWER. (Heb 1:vs3). When we pray for healing, it is because the person we pray for, can not see/accept that he has been healed as in Isaiah 53:5. He now has to come under another scripture that says "we shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover Mark 16:15. Many will also not be moved until they are anointed with oil.
I HAVE THE REALITY OF ISAIAH 53:5 IN MY SPIRIT, AND THAT IS WHY I ALWAYS SAY/PREACH, I CAN NOT BE SICK. BELOVED, DO NOT MIS-INTERPRETE ME, I DO FEEL SICKNESS SOMETIMES, BUT IT CAN NOT STAY, BECAUSE THE REALITY OF THE WORD IS HIGHER THAN THE CONSCIOUSNESS OF SICKNESS. Most people who claim to have faith do not really have faith, they only say it as a mental assent, it is not REAL!. STURBORN FAITH IS UNWAVARING IN FACE OF REALITY OF SENSES AND OBVIOUS OPPOSITIONS.!!!!!!!!!! I have laid hands on the sick sometimes and pray "be healed in Jesus name" and I ask the sick person" are you healed? Then he says "the pain is still there." Such a fellow should concentrate on his doctors because he has not received the Word of faith and COULD only have been healed by the sovereign act of the Almighty God. Some also place their faith in experiences. All these is sense knowledge and will not achieve results. Beloved, you need to know that the devil is clever and his demons are present EVEN when prayer is being prayed for the sick,(Job 1:6) THEY ARE PRESENT WHERE EVER THE ANGELS OF LIGHT ARE TOO. THEY ARE CLEVER LAWYERS WHO CAN EASILY ACCUSE YOU OF THE SPIRITUAL CRIME OF UNBELIEF. IT IS AMAZING THAT WE HAVE SO MUCH FAITH IN HUMAN ORGANISATIONS LIKE BANKS. WE WRITE A CHECK IN OUR NAME AS LONG AS WE HAVE THE MONEY, WE EXPECT THE BANK TO HONOUR IT. WE INVEST IN SEVERAL ORGANISATIONS AND EXPECT RETURNS AS PROMISED. BUT THE LORD HAS GIVEN US THE WORD AND HIMSELF AS GUARANTEE TO BACK IT UP (JER 1:12) BUT WE SCORN IT. Before we round up, we will share the spectacular act of faith by the man of God Elijah in turning the hand of God by faith. In the book of First Kings, Elijah had locked up the heaven and was now going to open it up after slaying the Baal prophets. In the beginning of the mighty act of faith demonstrated by Elijah, (verse 41),He challenged the king to prepare for rain without any doubt. As at this time, he had not even informed God in prayer as to his intention of re-opening the heaven. Then he sent his servant seven times to check the rain when he was on his knees petitioning the Lord for rain, and immediately the servant reported that he saw something like a man"s hand rise out of the sea he announced his FAITH BREATHROUGH WITHOUT DELAY AS HE SENT A MESSAGE TO THE KING TO RUN AHEAD OF THE RAIN WHILE HE OUTRAN THE KING. ALLELUJAH! HE HAD THE OPTION TO WALK AND NOT RUN BUT HE HAD TO PERFECT HIS FAITH ACT WITH DEMONSTRATION! FAITH IS AN EVIDENCE, IT IS NOT CHEAP TALK!!!!!!! Beloved, why will Elijah go through all these when he could have just prayed casually and rain would come? Let us not forget that man in complete charge over the affairs of the earth as God is in Heaven, GEN 1:28, PSALM 115 :16. There are other demoniacal forces that are operating on earth until their time runs out in the second advent. These forces can cause delay in receiving answers to prayer. In Daniel 10 verse 11-14, we can see how these forces cause delay, and how persistence in the alter of prayer and violent faith dislodge these forces. Arise beloved and take your position in the victory provided for you in Christ Jesus. You can change that situation, you can turn around those events, you can make a difference now in your situation. Only believe!!!! However, God is not under obligation to bless his enemies, and the only way you can become his friend is to accept the elaborate plan of redemption he accomplished in Christ Jesus. If you have not done this, or you just did it mentally but not from your heart, say the following prayers after me: Lord Jesus, I believe that you died for me and on the third day, you rose that I may be justified. As from today, I accept you as my Lord and personal savior, I am sorry for my sins, and with your grace, I will not go back to them, write my name in the book of life and keep me from the tricks of Satan. Amen. I congratulate everyone that has prayed this prayer and welcome you to the faith world of possibilities. Faith is it!!

#Power TO #Heal

There is a depth in the spirit that i want you to reach. There are levels of possibilities you have probably not known. In Mathew 9 verse 24-25, Jesus Christ went to bring a girl that was dead back to life. He had to tell the relatives, friends, mourners to leave the room because spiritual things don’t work in the atmosphere of unbelief !! When he had driven away the mourners he took the girl by hand, and she arose! I believe Jesus did this because he was in the spirit, he only spoke and the spirit of death bowed. All the parameters that brings about death were just taking place concerning this particular girl. However, in John chapter11, Lazarus had been dead for four days, and the spirit of death had caged him. He was already stinking, to attain the realm in the spirit that would cage death, Jesus was overwhelmed with compassion and ‘he wept’. He then began to groan in the spirit and the bible says “he was troubled”. When you groan in the spirit or travail, something will be born by you spiritually. There will be a release of tremendous power for deliverance! That was what happened. There was power released for the bringing back of lazarus back to life! When all these were accomplished, he cried ‘ Lazarus! Come forth ‘” and the bands of death was broken immediately. I am challenging you to be provoked in the spirit so that you can obtain your deliverance right away. Are you ready? There is a fountain flowing with the virtues of Jesus that can be birthed in the spirit to take you out of that infirmity. I have been through this journey before and tell you it is a sweet adventure in the spirit!
