Torn Veil - Defeating Death and Disease

Hi New Disciple, we are continuing the 'Torn Veil' theme for a few more days.

We were discussing how the Glory of God quickens the dead back to life. Today another story from the Old Testament found in 2 Kings 13. To cut the story short  Elisha's bones quickens a dead body back to life. Now you are asking me a question and I knew it was coming. So you are asking me if Elisha's bones quickened a dead person to life then why did he die in the first place? Thanks for asking that brilliant question. Let me give you an example, lets say a person owned a pharmacy and one day he got very sick to the point of death and had no knowledge of a medicine sitting on his shelf that had the curative ability to heal him? Please tell me what good the medicine would do just by sitting there unless it was accessed and used? Zilch I suppose. In the same way we fail, not because there is no solution but because we are ignorant or unbelieving of it.  Elisha had the potential to live like Elijah but sadly did not tap into the power that was in him.

God is not responsible for our ignorance and unbelief, but we are. We have the resurrection glory residing within us that can sustain us and supply us with abundant life. We can choose not to die of sickness if we get a revelation of the glory within us. Death and sickness has indeed lost their sting. The dead raising glory, the resurrection power has been placed into our spirit and its our responsibility to get a revelation, believe, develop and release it to meet our need. Today, we see the sad plight of the Church. A large percentage of the Christendom choose hospitals to meet their healing needs rather than God's healing power .
We cannot blame the  nominal Christian since he has not been taught the whole counsel of God neither has he seen it demonstrated in the Church.

In John 11 you will read the beautiful story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. I remember some powerful statements our Lord made. He said "Mary did you not know that I am the resurrection and the life whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. I find Jesus did not mince words. He meant what he said. Today big head theologians still dont believe that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever and hence write 'spiritual books' to justify sickness and support their unbelief. My friend if we do not see the light in the Word we too will stumble with unbelief; faith will not operate in our lives when we really want to see a manifestation of God's glory.

The one thing required of us now  is to get rid of the religious, traditional and theological junk fed to us systematically and as a New Disciple receive the sincere milk and meat of God's word. Get a revelation by meditating on the scriptures and faith will come aside to help you and me to bring about the required manifestation.

Torn Veil series will continue in my next blog. Please feel free to leave your comments below.


See you soon!

'Everyday' the new Sunday

Radical New Disciple Thinking -1 : Our Lord is calling out His people to come out of the Sunday Christianity mentality.  The real Christianity happens outside the four walls, manifesting his kingdom at home, at school, at the office, in your business, at the mall and on the streets. Jesus wants to be made visible every where. Unfortunately the lukewarm church says come in and stay in, but Jesus says go out into all the world and make disciples. He wants everyone to know His unconditional love, forgiveness and experience His power. Remember the New Disciple Sunday is all about bringing Jesus into your world everyday. Come out my people out of this bondage that has limited you. He is calling His people to step out in courage and set the captives free. Heal the sick, raise the dead, heal the brokenhearted, cast out demons so that all will know that Jesus is real. Will you take Jesus at His word and do what He says? Oh New Disciple you have been called to greatness, loving ...

Characteristics of a New Disciple -1

Our Lord Jesus said that a tree is known by its fruits. A good tree bears good fruit and a bad tree of course bad fruits. When we are planted by the streams of living water of life definitely our lives shall also begin to manifest effortlessly the fruits of the kingdom of God. So, a new believer of the kingdom is supposed to bear certain characteristics of the kingdom not merely in words but in the manifestation of it in power. When a New Disciple starts living these characteristics then truly he becomes the light of the world the city on a hill for every tribe and tongue, people and nations to come to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, his life will truly be a living epistle. Today we are going to see some of the basic characteristics of the New Disciples or the New Species in Christ Jesus. Characteristics of the New Disciple 1. The New Disciple is born of Heaven. Therefore Heaven is more Real to Him than earth. 2. The New Disciple is on a mission on the earth. The mission ...

The Door

John chapter 10 is a great chapter  to read, discover and meditate on some very important keys that can unlock us into the supernatural realm. You know when we examine closely  the ministry of our Lord we would see that he was loved by the multitudes who were drawn to Him for His simplicity to make the Kingdom and its resources available to them. He bridged Heaven and earth by demonstrating the Kingdom of God. He was hated by another group, of course you know who they are, the religious blokes, the Pharisees and Sadusees. These guys were mad at Jesus for making it so easy for people to partake in the riches of God's Kingdom. While they were busy engaged in accusing, threatening, condeming plotting and politicking to sabotage His mission, Jesus went about doing good, doing the works of His Heavenly Father. Jesus was very forthright with them and exposed their evil intentions to discourage people  from partaking in the Kingdom. Sadly the Christendom is filled with thes...
