LIVING FOR HIS PLEASURE IN GOOD HEALTH

Text :  Revelation 4:11 

Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.

Today, we shall be considering how God's pleasure prospered in the hand of Jesus, and the import of this in your own life. 

Isaiah 53:10 says that it has pleased the LORD to bruise Him (Jesus); He has put Him (Jesus) to grief. When God made His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in His hand.

God was so pleased to see Jesus Christ carry your sin, sickness, diseses, poverty and curse upon Himself. This is so that your sound and perfect health, could give God pleasure in turn. (Isaiah 53:5, Galatians 3:13)

Jesus was despised and rejected of men; He was a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief (sickness). He took all these upon Himself so that you can live in peace and be in good health (spirit, soul and body). (Isaiah 53:3).

Don't be deceived by any fable or religious myth that says God uses sickness and disease to discipline or test His children. God's word is very clear about this: *"...God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts He any man"* (James 1:13).

God wants you to prosper in your spirit, soul and body, that's what gives Him pleasure as far as your health is concerned. Beloved, I wish above all things that thou may prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.(3 John 1:2).

God's pleasure prospered when Jesus took your grief and sorrows upon Himself on the cross, how then do you think that sickness and disease can bring glory (pleasure) to God. 

Some people, while trying to justify the prolonged health problem in a believer's life, may even say that God has allowed such disease to buffet the believer as a test of his faith. No! Don't accept such lies from the pit of hell. Jesus had already paid for your infirmities on the cross, and that gave God huge pleasure.  You can't be carrying what Jesus had already paid for. 
 _That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.(_ Matthew  8:17).

If you are sick in your body, you can turn it back to Jesus on the cross. Let the devil know that your sickness or disease is not giving any pleasure to God. And anything that does not give God pleasure must be vehemently refuted in the name of Jesus.

Declare now over yourself:

Thank you dear Lord Jesus for satisfying God's pleasure on the cross for my sake. 

Thank you for carrying all my sicknesse, disease, curse and poverty on the cross.

I now declare in the name of Jesus, spirit of infirmities, sicknesse and disease leave my body now in the name of Jesus.

Bible Reading:

Isaiah 53:1-12.

PRAYER FOCUS

1.) Father God, please give me more desire to bring pleasure to you at all times.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
