LOVE
What does love have to do with healing?
1. FROM GOD'S POINT OF VIEW:
The reason for healing is love
John 3, 16. "God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, so that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life."
God sent His Son out of love to redeem us. The Greek word for salvation, "sózo", also means healing. Jesus also healed out of love and compassion. Matthew 9, 36.
This helps me take my eyes off MY faith and magnify HIS LOVE, rest in it.
I bless you to know Jesus as one whose love is inseparable from healing and life-giving.
The reason for blessings is God's love
Help is needed in so many things... In the fields of finances, relationships, work, healing, conception, birth... But why could it be us who receive these from the mighty God?
Romans 8:31-32 TPT "So, what does all this mean? If God has determined to stand with us, tell me, who then could ever stand against us? For God has proved his love by giving us his greatest treasure, the gift of his Son. And since God freely offered him up as the sacrifice for us all, He certainly won't withhold from us anything else he has to give."
In this passage of the Word, Paul proves that the greatest blessing and treasure is Jesus,
and He was given to us by our Father out of love.
This amazing, powerful love is the proof that God already gave us his blessings, help, healing and the babies.
I bless you to know that Christ's great love, sacrifice, and power in you are enough for everything. Don't let the devil make you think you need to know anything more than His love.
God abolished the punishment because he loves us.
Romans 8:33 TPT "Who then would dare to accuse those whom God has chosen in love to be his? God himself is the judge who has issued his final verdict over them—"Not guilty!"
In the original Greek text, the word accuse (katakrino) means: "he judges that he is worthy of punishment".
But God has decreed that we will receive neither accusation, nor curse, nor punishment.
Moreover, Christ carried all this for us on his own body. Thank Him for His love!
But what is a curse according to the Bible? For example, poverty, illness, failure, infertility. Thank God that He doesn't give us these and He rescued us from them.
I bless you so that you know that the God of Love, Jesus, stands by you and has forever set you free.
God's love for you is stronger than lack and disease!
In these underneath verses, Paul magnified God's love for us. I wonder why... Because if we see the love of the invisible God as greater than the problems, then we are not only overcoming the hindrances by His love, but also by His victory. Because love is inseparable from redemption, help, victory, and healing.
Romans 8:35 TPT "Who could ever divorce us from the endless love of God's Anointed One? Absolutely no one! For nothing in the universe has the power to diminish his love toward us. Troubles, pressures, and problems are unable to come between us and heaven's love. What about persecutions, deprivations, dangers, and death threats? No, for they are all impotent to hinder omnipotent love"
Although God has planned blessing and abundance for us, everything on this list happened to the apostle during and because of his ministry. And if this were to happen to us - due to persecution or even human error - we should not consider ourselves secondary Christians. Because none of this is an obstacle to God's perfect, gracious, saving love.
I bless you that in every difficulty you know that Jesus loves you and does not despise you. He is leading you to abundance and freedom in every situation and makes you victorious.
The reason for our victory: the love of Christ
Paul praises God's love in Romans 8:35-36. After that, it is not by chance that the promise of victory follows: Romans 8, 37.
There's never a moment when you're not more than conquerors.
Why are we always winners? Because we are always strong?
No, because God made us victorious - this is grace! Jesus' love, which was demonstrated on the cross is VICTORY!
The same way - through Jesus - He is demonstrating, manifesting His love in our bodies and lives.
I bless you to understand and experience this secret: the love, Holy Spirit, and the Word of Christ in you are the guarantee for your healing.
THE PERSON WHO IS MINISTERING HEALING
Why is love important for a healer?
The Word says that faith will be effective through love! Or: Faith works through love. Galatians 5:6
In the original Greek, the word for "works" is "energeo". This means: works, reaches his goal.
It gives us energy like electricity gives to a light bulb. It moves us from one state to the next. So it is love that gives strength to heal when you speak in the name of Christ or lay hands on the sick. God's love in your heart sets your faith into motion.
I bless you to know the power of love and compassion. Love is Christ himself.
1 John 4:7-12 NLT
Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him.
This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.
Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.
No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
Jesus commanded us to love one another and said that
🏵️ we can see God because of love.
⭐Love is God itself
🍄 He who does not love does not know God
⭐ He who loves is born of God.
Why should the one, who commands life and healing in the name of Jesus, walk in love?
THE SPIRIT OF COUNCIL & STRENGTH
Jesus is the Healer, the giver of Life. By grace we are one Spirit with Him. His Spirit is guiding us and giving us strength. This is how He is healing through us.
But if we do not walk in Him, if we do not live in love, then we suppress His voice and neglect the Spirit of Christ in our hearts. And then we become less and less accustomed to being led by the Spirit of Power. Amos 3:3.
THE SPIRIT OF DOMINION
He, who does not love, commits sin and becomes a slave to sin. John 8:34.
During the healing service, evil spirits often have to be cast out. But how can we have authority over the devil, if we have already bowed down to them many times?
BUT HOW?
🤔 Now you may be thinking, dear reader, that no one can live a completely holy life. And this is true.
❕ But the heart's passion matters. If there is a weakness in which a person fails, but is working on the matter, wants to grow and relies on the grace of Christ in prayer, then this person is ruling over sin and does not serve sin.
HEALING EVANGELISTS WHO LIVE IN SIN
It is thought-provoking that the gift of healing often works even if the healing evangelist is living in some great sin. This is possible because God does not withdraw His love and gifts.
Like when the father did not withdraw his inheritance from the Prodigal son... Romans 11:29. Romans 11:29.
A good example of this is the following: King David was a mighty man of God who prophesied about the Messiah and every time he defeated the enemies, who had attacked or scolded God's people. Even the giant Goliath. But he sinned with Bathsheba, seduced her and killed her husband. Despite all this, our Heavenly Father still loved him. He sent the prophet Nathan to make David regret his sin through him. And David was not at all happy as long as he lived in sin.
Psalms 32:3-4 TPT "Before I confessed my sins, I kept it all inside; my dishonesty devastated my inner life, causing my life to be filled with frustration, irrepressible anguish, and misery. The pain never let up, for your hand of conviction was heavy on my heart. My strength was sapped, my inner life dried up like a spiritual drought within my soul."
So then why is the healing evangelist, who has fallen into sin, able to continue his/her ministry?
Because he/she may still have a lot of good left in their heart. But soon he/she experiences that the Holy Spirit was saddened inside. Guilt and anguish cause illness in the body. A Christian who lives in sin will not be able to help others, because he/she will need healing...
Without a pure, holy, loving heart, there is no long-term healing service. Proverbs 4:23
I bless you to be like the prophet Nathan, who converted David to the right path, in love and wisdom. Remain in Christ's love and strength, healing power for a lifetime.
I bless you to know how great treasure you have in your loving heart. Keep it pure and see the mighty life-flow bringing forth blessings, new life.
Unconditional love
UNCONDITIONAL LOVE
1 Cor. 13
Many of you must have already heard about the Anthem of Love, which is in the Bible (1 Cor 13). This is a wonderful scripture, especially when we understand that it is about how God loves you personally!
THE WORD
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 AMPC
Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]. Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 TPT
Love is large and incredibly patient. Love is gentle and consistently kind to all. It refuses to be jealous when blessing comes to someone else. Love does not brag about one's achievements nor inflate its own importance. Love does not traffic in shame and disrespect, nor selfishly seek its own honor. Love is not easily irritated or quick to take offense. Love joyfully celebrates honesty and finds no delight in what is wrong. Love is a safe place of shelter, for it never stops believing the best for others. Love never takes failure as defeat, for it never gives up.
HE IS MERCIFUL, FORGIVING
Love is gracious. God floods us with His goodness and forgiveness, because He loves you and because He is good. Christ wiped out all our sins on the cross, He doesn't mention them anymore, He even forgot them completely. Isaiah 44, 22. Isaiah 43, 18-19.
SAVING LOVE
Love saves us in trouble and restores us.
Because of sins, a person can suffer from many diseases or great troubles can happen. But our Heavenly Father gives us back everything we have lost, restores us to a state as if we had never sinned. (He fills us with youth, strength, gives us opportunities. Esiah 40, 31.) Why? Because He doesn't want us to remember what we messed things up. He wants to comfort us completely!
IT COVERS THE SIN
Love does not condemn us for our sins. It covers everything and teaches us to do good, and gives us the strength to do good,
SELFLESS LOVE
Love does not seek its own benefit. The original text reads: Love does not seek its own. How true it is of God! He does not impose His will on us. Jesus called us His friends. And a good friend allows us to make our own decisions and respects us even if we don't make the decisions He thinks we should. He respects us despite our differences. God is similar. He does not seek His own good, His will. He does not force us to choose a job, a mission, or a spouse that we do not like. He allows us to have our own will and does not even force us to do good. He loves us even when we've messed something up. In fact, he is even more with us then, to pull us out of trouble with His love.
TRUE
He does not rejoice in doing and seeing evil, but it rejoices with the truth. Jesus is love, and we can be His friends if we allow Him to do a lot of good through us. 2 Cor 9, 8. And if we also love what is good. This translation is wonderful: "It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. " AMPC What is the truth? Jesus. John 14:6
LOVE IS VICTORIOUS
Jesus' name is Yeshua in Hebrew, meaning savior.
God saved us, redeemed us.
He became our help, freedom, healing, victory and salvation.
God is Yeshua, Jesus, became a man, became equal to us, to fill all our godly needs.
Yes. God is pleased when we achieve success, good goals and are happy.
LOVE NOURISHES
1 Cor 13 is written so that we can see that this is how God loves us, and that we can love Him, ourselves, and others in this way, as we are nourished by His love, through the Holy Spirit. 1 John 4, 10. 2 Cor 3, 18. So we can boldly go to Him, just like His sons or friends. We can approach the royal throne of GRACE without self-condemnation. Hebrews 4, 16. Thus it is possible that we were healed in the wounds of Christ and that the impossible became a fulfilled wish.
JESUS' TREASURES
When I got born again, I was taught that this parable is about how we have to make sacrifices to gain Jesus. We are to pay for Jesus by giving up the world and sins.
But the gospel is not about people's sacrifice and human payments... It is about, how Jesus paid the highest price to save us. What Jesus sacrificed - heaven, His body, blood, His life on earth - can rather be called "payment". We only gave up sins and goals that cannot satisfy our souls.
If this parable was about our sacrifice, the symbol of the field makes no sense. Buying the field means purchasing something big that one doesn't need. But with Jesus we got nothing unnecessary for us.
When I understood that this parable is about Jesus' love, sacrifice for us, I was overwhelmed by His love. We are treasures that His heart desires more than anything. We are so valuable for Him that He gave up all His possessions for us. We are more important for Him than His authority and the whole heaven. He was ready to live on the earth, this is how He bought the field to get the treasure, us.
I bless you to know that you are Jesus' pleasure and treasure. He wouldn't lie to His beloved. He is fulfilling His promise. It is actually done.
FAITH AND LOVE
Faith and Love are Stronger than the devil
God showed me how much love and faith are connected.
Gal 5, 6. "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but only faith activated and expressed and working through love."
God often gave me a prophetic picture just when I embraced my husband and rested, enjoyed his nearness. Then He, Almighty started talking to me as if I had showcased a great act of faith, as if He wanted to encourage my love, as if He wanted to show me how much He appreciates and finds pleasure in our love.
Faith and love are connected, they work through each other.
LOVE IS GREAT
When we love each other, our husband, our children, God, our enemies, we are truly experiencing what the new covenant is about. 1 Cor 13 says that love is greater than faith and love believes everything.
Love is our motivation for wanting children, we want to share Jesus' love, the gospel with our children and raise them into a people who bring Jesus' light, love, healing into the world.
LOVE HEALS
Love, God's love is healing. I read the biography of a missionary. Before he started his healing ministry he had been a nurse in a home for children with down syndrome. He truly loved those children and felt God's love for them. He did not even pray for healing, "just" loved them, and one by one, they got healed! This is how powerful love is.
I also saw a video of a mother embracing her lifeless baby, singing a worship song. And then the baby came alive- through faith, experiencing love, godly love.
SAVING LOVE
In many movies the heroes can persevere and keep their faith despite big difficulties – because of LOVE!
It is the love of Jesus that gives us strength to persevere. Because we know the Promise-Giver loves us.
We got godly faith and born again when we heard how much God loves us. Faith came through love.
We get healed when we hear Jesus suffered so that we may get whole and have no lack.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, thank You for Your love. We want to understand, experience, explore the depth and height of Your love, feel Jesus' love for us and others and His faith expressed through love and know that Your love has already overcome all difficulties. Lead us in Your great peace and love. Help us rest knowing Your love and great purpose for us is already done and possible through Jesus who loves us.
FORGIVE!
Forgiveness/ Unforgiveness is an important topic to understand, when we have a big request of God. "But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses." Mark 11, 26. I would like to go into your topic with you, because unforgiveness can hinder breakthroughs, as I understand. Tell me, please your opinions. Can unforgiveness hinder our breakthroughs? What is unforgiveness? To what extent should we forgive? I do not want to go to extremes, because we are human, forgiven, God's children and I do not want us to look for a sin where there is none. Psalms 19, 12.
"Who can understand his errors? cleanse thou me from secret faults."
What is forgiveness? How can I tell if I could really forgive- from my heart? It is tough. If somebody wronged me, I'll not desire the person's company. I think it is natural and wise. Because even if I have forgiven, this does not mean that I trust the other person. Trust takes time to develop - and here we need to be wise. But saying hello to our "enemy" is good, because then we give a chance to them to say sorry or undo the wrong. If I have forgiven, I can wish the other person well. If "my enemy" gets blessed, he/she can become a better person and will not harm others. :) The Bible says we need to help our enemy in need. Exodus 23,4. Mathew 5, 44 Romans 12, 20. But have I forgiven the other person if I have an unpleasant feeling when I hear her/his name? It is hard not to remember what he/she did. Maybe our first reaction is an unpleasant feeling, but then we can remember that God is good, just and He comforts those who cry. He will compensate us. He promised this: "Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over." He will show that nobody can mess with Almighty's kids.
Jesus said: forgive them, as they do not know what they are doing. It is probably true to most people. They would not have wronged us if they had known the amount of damage they have done. They did not know that in that situation it felt so bad. They did not know that they insulted the Creator with their bad deed. They did not think, or they were silly or lacked the emotional intelligence to see clearly.
You know the parable of the king who forgave the dept to his servant. Matthew 18, 23- We often feel that there is no bigger sin than the one which was committed against us. But our sin towards God was bigger. It hurt God when we had bad intentions, thoughts, when we want to get by without him, when we are faithless, when we are thankless. So it is fair to forgive, as we are forgiven too.
The vengeance belongs to God. We must be sure that God is just. He is more angered by what was done to us than we are. It hurts him more than us. IF we do not forgive, by that we say that we want to punish our "enemy". But if we forgive we hand out our "enemy" to God to judge him/her justly. He will surely not allow anybody to hurt His child. When Kain killed Abel, God gave Kain big punishment. From this story we can see that God does not let sin unpunished.
1 Korinthians 13. - no comment... Love is patient, does not boast, in not envious, does not keep mentioning the past wrong, believes and hopes for everything. Only Holy Ghost can enable us to do that. It helps us love our "enemy" to know that our "enemy" is in spiritual need, otherwise he/she would not harm others. He/she needs our prayers so that he/she would not perish and not live in darkness.
Am I the only one for whom forgiveness is not that easy? I listed those people whose names I do not like to hear. Then I said it out:
- the person did not know what they did, or else would not have done it
- God is the judge- my "enemy" wronged God more than me
-God judges justly
-Love is graceful, does not mention the past wrongs, believes and hopes for everything
- my "enemy" needs my prayers so that he/she would not perish and do wrong
-God can protect me from my "enemy"
- I heap coals of fire on my enemy's head-> so he/she will repent and turn to God
- I do not want to live in the past. "Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof". I put down my burden to the cross of Jesus. This way I can fight without burdens and God will grant me the desires of my heart.
IS UNFORGIVENESS A HINDRANCE?
I was researching the topic, whether unforgiveness, anger or any loveless action on our part or our husband's part can give place to the enemy and cause diseases, the lack of a breakthrough. 🤔❓
Holy Spirit showed me this passage. 👆
1 John 3, 20-24.
God never withholds any blessing or healing from us. 🙌🙌But unless we love others, in our hearts we may feel unworthy and therefore we may not dare to ask our Father boldly. 🙌
I bless you and ourselves never to condemn ourselves and to know that we are the righteousness of Christ.
So?❓ We were given all. How can we know ❓Are we given all because we always walk in love? ❓ Then nobody could get anything... We know we are in Christ, as we can hear our mighty Daddy Father's voice, ❤️🔥 as we have the Spirit in us. 🔥
🙌I bless you to spend a bit time in His presence and hear Him, ask Him boldly and hear his voice and be led in love. 💗🙌I bless you, us to be led how to love. Amen.
VICTORIOUS LOVE
God created the world out of His abundant, selfless, giving, providing love. God sent His beloved, only Son to restore us to perfect fertility and health – out of His victorious, harm-defeating love. My friend, mom Esther advised us to meditate on God's love, because faith works through love. Gal 5, 6. So our faith becomes effective, we see changes in our life, when our faith springs up from God's grace, love.
Ps 36, 7. "How precious is your UNFAILING love, Oh God". God cannot lose, His love is unfailing and He is in us, in a "yoke", covenant. This means that we are one team. Jesus won the race, one the battle, won the life of our children. This means that our life prospers and our fertility is victorious, successful, shows great results. You can imagine it like having a company together with God. A wonderfully successful company! Jesus worked on the "business" but we enjoy the victory, our now-children. His great love matters in our life, it brings changes and it is precious.
Ps 86,5 "You, Lord, are forgiving and good, abounding in love to all who call to you". When I call Him, His response is in love and forgiveness, He does not hold any lack against us and He is ready to help us all, He does not only hear some of us and does not only help those who have a certain amount of faith, but all. His mercy and love are the key to our victory.
Zeph 3, 17. "The Lord, your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save, He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you by His love, He will exult over you with loud singing". When our Heavenly Father sees you and me and our children, He bursts out in a song of joy!!! That is His song of victory and love- for us! We are often told to always rejoice, praise Him, even in hardships, but nobody can do that perfectly. God is doing it for us, Jesus has carried away all imperfections, even our inability to perfectly rejoice in all situations. Jesus did not mock others, did not complain when He was mocked and ridiculed and insulted. He has perfected our ways and worship! He loves and believes for us perfectly, because He loves us unconditionally, the way we are. Saving us and giving life to our children are part of His personality, of who God is. His love, goodness gives us peace and victory!
We worship You, Heavenly Father and praise You for Your unfailing love, Your amazing love for us, for being our perfection, for completing us and having given us victory. We receive Your victory and are ready to think of ourselves as heard, loved, accepted and we know our babies are signs of Your victory, Your trophies, Your sure provision and we thank You, for Your love and goodness that made it possible now!
