NEW WEAPONS OF WARFARE FOR SPIRIT, SOUL, MIND, AND BODY

We have been instructed to examine ourselves before we appropriate the blood of Jesus. This means we need an honest assessment of our current condition. This doesn’t just apply to internal sins of offense, unforgiveness, or immoral practices. I believe it can also apply to our physical well-being. Scripture states that many are sick and dying because they do not rightly discern – examine – the body.

I believe we need to be asking more questions before presuming we need more prayer. We need to make sure we have assessed our true condition before applying the particular treatment that God has in mind. This has both spiritual application as well as physical. Certainly the blood of Jesus is powerful and complete. But there is a part we also play in our long-term health. It is to this end that I share some spiritual insights along with some very practical information to arm you with more tools for your own warfare.

We need to take responsibility for our physical health and take a good look at our lifestyle and health practices. We need to consider root causes before just treating the symptoms. And we need to rightly judge what we are feeding on – literally. This will not only impact our own health and well-being, but will aid in our effectiveness when praying for others and supporting those who are battling sickness and disease.

Please take the time to watch and consider the various resources I suggest for further study and research. It’s time we upgrade our warfare practices to include all aspects of our well-being. God desires to use us as conduits of His supernatural workings on the earth, but He needs our cooperation. We need to address our wholeness of spirit, soul, mind, and body if we are to receive the full healing that God intends. I pray you are encouraged and empowered in new ways, not only for your own health, but for those you minister to and pray for.

When Pain Makes You Comfort-Able
Dear friend, God may very well send someone your way who needs a person who understands. No one can help a woman who is struggling with a wayward teenager like the mother who has welcomed a prodigal home.No one can encourage a woman struggling with depression like the woman who has come out of that same darkness and into the light.No one can help a woman struggling with the pain of a shameful past like the woman who has exchanged her tattered sackcloth for a princess’s robe.That’s why your story matters.
