Fear No Fear

(All scripture from the NET, netbible.org, all rights reserved)

When Ephraim saw his sickness and Judah saw his wound, then Ephraim turned to Assyria and begged its great king for help. But he will not be able to heal you. He cannot cure your wound!
Hosea 5:12 (emphasis added)

Who are you relying on? Who are you believing? Who are you looking to to FIX your problem? That more than almost anything else will determine the course of your journey to health. Because who you rely on will lay your path. If you want to cover your symptoms, there are those that can help you with that. If you want remission of THIS SPECIFIC thing, there are those that can help you with that. If you want a cure, there are those who are attempting to get that implemented. If you want to be WHOLE, there is only ONE stop.

There are those that will teach you that you need to manifest the solution to your problem with the law of attraction. That like attracts like and if you go with that and align yourself with it, you will get what you want. All that you are accomplishing is telling every spiritual entity within hearing distance that you are willing to do anything if you get what you want. That you are up for trading. You’ll worship them with your meditation. You’ll choose to try the law of vibration and change your thinking and will so as to be on the same vibe as theirs – IF you’ll get what you want. You’ll trade your dominion for STUFF – health stuff, financial stuff, relationship stuff, etc. You will turn the altar of your will into a landing place for anything that is coming by.

If that scenario sounds familiar, it’s the situation that faced Adam and Eve. They had EVERYTHING, but the devil used the snake’s anointing of shrewdness to change their perception (Genesis 3:1-7). He challenged what they knew to be true and real. He offered them more than they thought they had. He pointed out aspects of things they had never considered. They? They did NOT seek the truth. They did not INVESTIGATE anything. They agreed that what he said was what he said. They used the altar of their will and let him land. They did NOT exercise their dominion. They did NOT make him heel. They did NOT stand on their instructions. They gave up authority to him and covered it with excuses when caught.

There is NOTHING that you get without consequence. It is a Spiritual Law of cause and effect that is so powerful that we see it operating in the physical realm. It moves from the unseen to the seen. That is how big it is. The consequence of rebellion is death. The consequence of obedience is life. Faith and fear. Life and death. Blessing and the curse. That is IT in this universe. That is ALL that there is. Do NOT be deceived (Ephesians 5:6).

If you put your trust into the physical world, then the physical world is all you are going to have. Seed into the natural, reap from the natural. That is ANOTHER Spiritual Law. “Do not be deceived. God will not be made a fool. For a person will reap what he sows, because the person who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption from the flesh, but the one who sows to the Spirit will reap eternal life from the Spirit” (Galatians 6:7-8). “While the earth continues to exist, planting time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, and day and night will not cease” (Genesis 8:22). Put the seed of your trust and faith in the world, you will reap what you sow. It is NOT a good bargain. The world is NOT reliable. It is filled with people with good intentions, placebos, managing techniques, and get-you-through-it plans. There is a LOT of intelligence. There is a LOT of work. There is a LOT of effort. But there is NO POWER. The world has no power.

You need someone able to reach into your whole self (spirit, soul, and body) and make changes. That takes power we CANNOT manage. It is BEYOND us. Time and again, despite best efforts and intentions, that the world has to tell us that there is nothing else they can do. They have reached the end and all they can do is find a relatively peaceful way to help you die. WHO WANTS THAT? Only people who are ALSO at the end of their rope. ONLY those who have given up, have no hope, and see no light at the end of their tunnel. They have lost their way and all is shadow. But in Yahweh God, there ARE NO SHADOWS (James 1:17-18).

Jesus came and got rid of sin. It is not an issue if we don’t let it be one (1 John 3:9). If we live a repentant life, humbly submitted, totally obedient, and living in the correction of the Lord in all things (Matthew 3:8; Acts 3:19); then we can keep sin under our feet (Genesis 4:7). Jesus died and was resurrected so that He could be lifted up and BE our salvation. As a result, the keys of all sickness, disease, death, and hell are His. “Then Jesus came up and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me”” (Matthew 28:18). Jesus is where all the bucks of all the universe stop. He is the Name Above ALL Names. “As a result God highly exalted him and gave him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee will bow—in heaven and on earth and under the earth—and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:9-11).

Who is going to be your source? Who are you going to submit to? Who will you obey? Whose report will you listen to with all your heart and soul and mind? The Word tells us that the BLOOD is the LIFE (Leviticus 17:11). The devil has tried to turn that into a horror troupe so that we scoff at it, mock it, and reject it as a TRUTH. But it IS true. The question is whose blood will BE your life? Yours? The world? The devil? All that blood is either contaminated or stolen. Split on altars like abortion. Spilt on altars like disease. Is THAT what you will trust in? The innocent and the rancid?

Jesus gave His ALL for us. Broke His body. Spilt His blood. Innocent, but PURE and given WILLINGLY (John 10:17-18). “While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after giving thanks he broke it, gave it to his disciples, and said, “Take, eat, this is my body.” And after taking the cup and giving thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood, the blood of the covenant, that is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you, from now on I will not drink of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”” (Matthew 26:26-29).

Who will you let be your source? Who will you look to? Whose blood will be your life? If it is anything but Jesus, anything but Yahweh, then you are covenanting with the WRONG thing. Yahweh is a God of covenant. A God of promises. A God you can TRUST. Let HIM be your source. Let HIM be your ALL. Let HIM be your healing. Now, today, and forever. The world can treat you. The enemy can fool you and stop purposefully pummelling you. But the Lord God Almighty? HE can HEAL you. Reach out and take it from His hand. Nothing MISSING and nothing BROKEN. TOTAL healing. He IS the God who HEALS.

Daily Affirmation Jesus IS Messiah: Genesis 49:10

“The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs; the nations will obey him.” The NATIONS will obey Him. The world and the powers that move behind the scenes have been trying for a world government for a LONG time. Why were all those ancient rulers obsessed with conquering the world? Why so many planet-spanning empires? Why? because the enemy wants to supplant Messiah at every opportunity to ruin the faith of men and mar their belief. But Messiah IS coming. He WILL be obeyed by the NATIONS of the Earth. Not one. Not two. ALL the nations. “I have other sheep that do not come from this sheepfold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, so that there will be one flock and one shepherd” (John 10:16). Unto Him shall the obedience of the people be. Jesus IS the Good Shepherd. Jesus IS Messiah.
