Walk in the Light

Happy Independence Day! Let’s pray together for the president, staff, congress, the senate, and the supreme court. Let’s pray that God would open the eyes of their understanding , like Ephesians 1 says. We break the power of the forces of evil in their lives in the name of Jesus. May they be free to make godly decisions as our leaders.

Proverbs 4:18 says, ‘18 The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn,
shining ever brighter till the full light of day.’
My last five years have been progressively defined and limited by a foul, devilish disease. The name Lou Gherig’s strikes fear in many hearts, much like leprosy did in biblical times. But it is only a curse. Jesus became the curse and completely destroyed every power of the enemy. No matter how big and scary that giant is, it is still an ‘uncircumcized philistine’. We have an everlasting covenant with the most high God, circumcised in the heart. Praise God! No weapon formed against us shall prosper. And every tongue that rises against us in judgment, we will condemn. This is our heritage. I condemn spirits of doubt, despair, discouragement and ‘tell it like it is’. What good does it do to restate the obvious? It brings my heart down to my body rather than the other way around. Some people think I’m lying when I say I am strong, but Joel 3:10 tells the weak to say they are strong. I obey the word because James 1:22 says to be a doer of the word. So I am healed because He says I am. I am forgiven, righteous, free and whole because He says so. When the symptoms come up, does the ink on the pages of your bible rearrange to say something different? God forbid!! No, his word is truth. His word is the only real, living truth. This book is a physical manifestation of God himself. See John 1:1. Romans 10:17 says faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. The word for ‘word’ means ‘anointed word’ or one that speaks to you. I think that is what proverbs 4:22 means by ‘find them’. It means seek or search the scriptures until one talks to you. Then you have found the precious treasure, the pearl of great price. Now you have a word from God, and it is alive in your heart. John speaks of Jesus in chapter one, verse 14, saying the Word was made flesh. But when you find a word of scripture that speaks to you, that word becomes flesh in you. Oh, how can anybody say the bible is boring?! It is like a treasure hunt in a bank vault. You know it’s there. As you find more and more treasure, the light of the knowledge of the glorious gospel of Christ will shine in your heart, and you will be on the path that proverbs 4:18 talks about.

I love you all. You are my spiritual, eternal family. Here’s to eternity together!
healed by His stripes,
