Let us be honest. We are the body of Christ, Jesus has purchased us by His blood to walk in grace and love.
We are suffering, emotionally, spiritually, physically. Despite our state we love the Lord.
We love the Lord because He is love itself and until we meet Him face to face, we will have these trials. We do not follow Him because these trails will be removed, but because he helps us overcome, transcend our situation in the Spirit.
Now if I am going to say the Lord gives us 100% healing and wealth which we just need to speak out, we are not walking in the Spirit. Either the gospel has failed to convey this reality or it is a lie and not from the Lord.
The healing Jesus brings is new birth, and the growth of the spirit born in Him, which transforms us as we grow. We are limited earthen pots who often have flaws and issues that need resolving, but that is the work of the Spirit through the word, His Spirit and our devotion. God does heal, as His grace desires and as we pray. He also uses everything for His purposes.
The sad reality is the prosperity gospel perpetuates itself because it attracts so much money and attention. It becomes like a parasite feeding off its own success and exploitation of those who fall for the lie. Often desperate people want a simple fix especially as all other options are slandered and rebuked as empty and false.
But as this thread and many others before it has shown, it is an empty and self defeating philosophy who make Christians out as self interested money grabbing greedy people.
Ask yourself this simple question.
Did Jesus have a 100 percent success rate in getting people healed?
You know absolutely nothing about the subject, because if you did you wouldn't be saying junk like, just saying something once and it happens. The bible does not teach that and neither have I said such.
Your reality is in the world of men, and the world you live in is what you will have. You live in the world of man or the natural world. Therefore, you will have everything this world has to offer.
The kingdom of heaven or to be in Christ Jesus, is to LIVE by and in the world of faith. In the world of faith, nothing is impossible. And the kingdom of God rules the kingdom of men. Not just in setting up and tearing down kingdoms, but the laws of the spirit world rule and supersede the laws of this natural world.
You say I don't have the signs following me, and that I just live in a world of make believe, without know what I have experienced. You obviously haven't read many of the things I have written or, like most of the things I've said, you don't believe what I have said.
That is one of the reason's why I don't cast my pearls before the evil and hard hearted, carnally minded, unbelieving swine. I can't prove it. So I use scripture. The thing you say you believe, and yet, your words say otherwise.
The word of God says you will know them by their fruit. I have read what you have said, and the word of God is not in it. All you have, is the world you live in, which is not the kingdom of God.
The word of God says, "And the just shall live by faith".
How can you even claim to be just when you do not have the word of God in you. Therefore, you have no faith in God to do anything for you or other.
The world of a fish is in the water with the fish. Anything outside that water world doesn't exist to the fish, because the fish can't see it.
You are the same as the fish.
I have yet more verses for you to ignore.
You said you won't listen to anything because it doesn't deal with "the will of God" issue.
Can you show me where the will of God is in the words we speak? God'swill goes out the window, because we can and do, for the most part,say what we want, when we want and feel like saying whatever comes to mind.
Those who use God's will as an excuse not to believe what is written, have to add what is not written to the scriptures, and equally have to ignore all that is written.
Both blessings and cursing come about in our lives due to what come out of our mouths. What we name and claim verbally, whether good or bad, for or against us and our loved ones, will determine what comes to pass in our lives.
Pro 12:13 The wicked is snared by the transgression of his lips: but the just shall come out of trouble.
Pro 12:14 A man shall be satisfied with good by the fruit of his mouth: and the recompense of a man's hands shall be rendered unto him.
Pro 13:2 A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors shall eat violence.
Pro 13:3 He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.
That is to say, he that watches what he says or what comes out of hismouth, like a wise man, will keep or preserve his life, but those whodon't, like the fool, will have torment and destruction in his life.
Pro 18:20 A man's belly shall be satisfied withthe fruit of his mouth; andwith the increase of his lips shall he be filled.
Pro 18:21 Deathand life arein the power of the tongue:and they that love it shalleat the fruit thereof.
Isa 57:19 I create the fruit of the lips;Peace, peace to himthat is faroff, and to himthat is near,saith the LORD; and I will heal him.
Psa 103:2 Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all hisbenefits:
Psa 103:3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thydiseases;
Psa 103:4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneththee with lovingkindness and tender mercies;
Psa 103:5 Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things;so that thyyouth is renewed like the eagle's.
All the above verses have to do with the words that come out of your mouth.
Again,God creates what we say, whether it be for our good or to our detriment, it depends on the words we speak, or naming it andclaiming it. It is a law of faith, and it works for good or evil, for or against.
Jas3:2 For in many things we offend all. If any man offend notin word, the same is aperfect man, and able alsoto bridle the whole body.
Jas3:6 And the tongue isa fire, a world of iniquity: so is the tongue among our members, thatit defileth the whole body, and setteth on fire the course ofnature; and it is set on fire of hell.
This too is saying that our tongue sets on fire the course of nature, or God creating the fruit of our lips, or death and life being in thepower of the tongue.
Deu 30:11 For this commandment which I command thee this day, it is not hidden from thee, neither is it far off.
Deu 30:12 It is not in heaven, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go up for us to heaven, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
Deu 30:13 Neither is it beyond the sea, that thou shouldest say, Who shall go over the sea for us, and bring it unto us, that we may hear it, and do it?
Deu 30:14 But the word is very nigh unto thee, in thy mouth, and in thy heart, that thou mayest do it.
Rom 10:6 But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise,Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above
Rom 10:7 Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is, to bring up Christ again from the dead.)
Rom 10:8 But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith,which we preach;
Rom 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Rom 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Mat 12:33 Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.
Mat1 2:34 O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh.
Mat 12:35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth evil things.
Mat 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.
Mat 12:37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.
Luk 6:45Agood man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth thatwhich is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heartbringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the hearthis mouth speaketh.
Luk24:11 And their words seemed to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.
So here are even more verses that say you have what you say without the will of God making you say what He wants you to say. The will of God is, what you say, you will have. The will of God is,
Deu 11:26 Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse;
Deu 11:27 A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you this day:
Deu 11:28 And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known.
Deu 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing:
therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
The choice is your, to obey or not to. To speak life and belief or death and doubt.
Since you obviously are not walking in the Spirit, for you are carnally minded and do not believe, I ask you, where is the will of God with your actions and your words of doubt?
We all see what is going on in this world and go through problems, but God is our hope, and we put our trust in Him and His word, Jesus, to deliver us out of ALL our troubles.
Psa 34:17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth, and
delivereth them out of all their troubles.
2Ti 3:11 Persecutions, afflictions, which came unto me at Antioch, at Iconium, at Lystra; what persecutions I endured: but
out of them all the Lord delivered me.
