Thank You, Jesus, for all you have done for me! Your precious body was broken for me, and Your blood was shed for me. therefore, I take authority over any and all forms of sickness and disease, and I declare on on the blood that they are not permitted to live here anymore! you are my Passover Lamb, Who has caused the spirit of death, poverty, and sickness to pass over me forever. As I take of your Holy Communion in faith, I believe that I receive complete and total healing from any and all sickness in my mind, body, and soul! I command every lying symptom operating illegally to cease and desist in Jesus' name. Thank youLord, for by His stripes I am healed and I proclaim you my healer. Amen!

⁵  Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? ⁶  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.⁷ If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.⁸  Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. ⁹  Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?¹⁰Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. ¹¹ Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.                              John 14:5-11 (KJV)

We have an example here of how people can still have doubts at times of the authenticity of Jesus’ claim of being the Son of God. Thomas called “Doubting Thomas” because of his unbelief of Jesus’ appearance after the resurrection. Here we have another time when he doubted, however we also see that Philip doubted. Two of the men that followed Jesus for over three years still had moments when their faith was low.

Do we think they were lost, no? Do we think they had backslid, no? Then why do we wonder when we do not feel our passion for Jesus as we did when we first saved asked him to wash our sins away? We all have times that we face things that we do not know what is going on, or why we are feeling this way.

We have to believe that the Triune Godhead is in control and are keeping an eye on us. We have our memories of all the times that God answered our prayers, that Jesus was there with us while we walked through those hard times and that The Holy Ghost was directing our path. We know not why we face what we are facing, however, we know beyond a shadow of doubt that our God will see us through whatever we are facing.

Heavenly Father, thank you for giving us the reassurance that you are still on the throne, that you are still watching over us, that Jesus is still walking beside us and helping us over the rough spots on our way to you. Most importantly, we thank you for sending The Holy Ghost to comfort us, guide us and bring to our remembrance the times you have answered those prayers that we pray and no one knows about them. Amen.

As a member of the International Full Gospel Evangelistic Association, are you EVANGELISTIC? Merriam-Webster.com definition:

Evangelism

¹ the winning or revival of personal commitments to Christ

² militant or crusading zeal

--- evangelistic is an adjective

Adjective

¹ A modifier of a noun to denote a quality of the thing named

² Or to specify a thing as distinct from something else

I read an article by Chris Hefner about this subject and it made me wish each of you could read it. It asks some questions that we should be asking ourselves on a regular basis. One question is; “But are you evangelistic?”

As ministers, you preach, and prayerfully it is to more than one person in each service, however do you talk to those around you that are not your fellow church members about God, Jesus or the Holy Ghost? This is what Bro. Hefner is trying to get us to think about; “Do you regularly put yourself in situations where you can share your faith personally?”

He goes further and bring to our remembrance Phillip in Acts 8, and brings out five points:

¹ Be Obedient

² Be Attentive

³ Be inquisitive

⁴ Be Prepared

⁵ Be Available

We all need to be more active in personal evangelism on a regular basis. If you are one that is unable to get out and around people, you can always pray that The Holy Ghost will show you how you can be involved in evangelism from your home.

Father, I thank You, for Your unfailing Word. In the name of Jesus Christ, I declare that no promise from Your Word spoken in my life shall return void. The words I speak over myself in faith and in agreement with Your Word shall not fall to the ground. Every purpose that You intend in my life shall be accomplished. Thank You, that Your Word is full of Omnipotent power and any barrier to its fulfillment in my life is broken now. Nothing will stand in the way of me receiving the manifestation of Your promises in my life. I know Satan is a liar, and I reject his lies as an act of my free will. Thank You, Lord, that Your Word is prosperous in my life. Your Word says, according to 1 Peter 2:24, (Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.), that with the stripes of Jesus I am already healed. This word is the final authority in my life. I decree divine health, wholeness, restoration, and deliverance, in my spirit, soul, and body, in Jesus' name. Amen!

So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall nt return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. Isaiah 55:11 (KJV)
