Spiritual Forces Stronger than Physical God is a Spirit. He created man so He can create new flesh where disease has destroyed it. God created this world of our...s, filled it with rocks and all these physical objects by just the word of Faith. This Word of Faith can rebuild destroyed tissues in our bodies. You can understand that our combat is not with physical things, but with spiritual things. Our enemies are spirits. The diseases that afflict men are spiritual. When our reasoning faculties are convinced of these realities, disease is defeated. The ills that afflict men are spiritual ones. We are masters of those things. In the Name of Jesus we reign as kings. We take "the helmet of salvation and the sword of the spirit, which is the Word of God." The combat is a combat fought with our lips. In our lips is the Word of God, the Sword of the Spirit. With that Word we conquer disease. We say, "Disease, in the Name of Jesus Christ, stop being. Cancer, in the Name of Jesus, shrivel up and stop being. T.B., in the Name of Jesus, leave that body." We are masters. He made us masters. He made us to rule them as He did in His earth walk. "With all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons in the Spirit, and watching thereunto in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints." 2 Cor. 3:5-6: "Not that we are sufficient of ourselves, to account anything as from ourselves; but our sufficiency is from God ; who also made us sufficient as ministers of a New Covenant." He has given to us His own sufficiency, His own ability. The word, "dunamis" translated "power" means "ability." Take this scripture as an illustration : "Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us." It is according to the ability of God that is at work within us. God's marvelous ability is at work within us. We are equipped by God and with God. We have His Word that created the Universe. We have His Word that can slay or make alive. We have the Name of Jesus; and all the authority of Heaven is back of it and is invested in it. We have the power of attorney to use that Name. We have the great and mighty Holy Spirit Who raised Jesus from the dead dwelling in us. We have the same ability at work within us that wrought in Christ in His earth walk. Read carefully Ephesians 1 :19-23: "I want you to know what the exceeding greatness of the ability of God is to usward who believe. It is according to the strength of His might which He wrought in Christ when He raised Him from the dead." Our equipment is spiritual, and spiritual things are mightier than physical. The Church has ability today to destroy the atheistic forces that seek to wipe out the effect of Christian civilization in Europe. The Church does not know that it has His ability. The Church is utterly ignorant of her place in the purpose of God. Wars are created by demons, carried on by demon inspiration; but the Church is the master of demons. 1 John 4:4: "Ye are of God, my little children, and have overcome them ; because greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world." How little we have appreciated this! The mighty Holy Spirit, who renewed the face of the earth, who healed the sick and raised the dead, who hushed the sea through Christ, is the same Holy Spirit that we have today. He has lost none of His ability. The Father has tried to tell us that this One in us is greater than the demoniacal forces of the earth. He says, "Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world. You are masters. You are rulers. Demons cannot rule the world without your consent." I have given you `all authority' over all the power of the enemy. Now go and exercise it!" 1 Cor. 1:30: "But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who was made unto us wisdom from God." Here Jesus is made unto us wisdom. It is God's wisdom, not man's. It is the wisdom that is greater than Satanic wisdom. The Two Kinds of Life - EW Kenyon Kindly share

Don't cancel out your prayersfill your atmosphere with words that speak the answer. You can't speak gloom and doom and expect to feel anything good or better! ...You can't speak lack all the time and expect abundance. You charge your atmosphere with faith in God for what you want, by praying for what you want, and speaking what you want. It's a waste of spiritual energy to pray for the positive but speak what's negativeit's like cancelling out your prayers. Why bother doing that? If you're going to pray in the morning, don't cancel your prayers throughout the day. Don't waste your breath or your spiritual energy on what you don't want to come to you.

THIS is the TRUTH we have been teaching for many years.

God's Attitude Toward Disease God looks upon disease as He looks upon sin, the work of Satan in the life of His Creation, man. Christ came to reveal the Father-...God, to make known His attitude toward man. By carefully following the life of Christ we may learn the attitude of God toward sickness. Christ Was the Will of the Father Christ's ministry from the beginning to the close was a twofold ministry. He brought peace to the souls of men and healing to their bodies. Healing had a major place in the ministry of Christ. Throughout His ministry He delivered all those who were oppressed of Satan. This deliverance included healing for physical bodies. If disease did not come from Satan, it must have had a place in God's original plan for man. Read Matthew 8:16-17 and Mark 1:32-34. If this were the case, then Jesus' ministry would have been contrary to the Father's will. He was the Father's will revealed to man and He revealed that it was the Father's will to break the power of disease over man's body and set him free from pain and suffering. Christ's ministry proclaimed healing and blessing to the physical part of man's nature, as well as to the spiritual side. There are several instances where the attitude of Christ toward disease is clearly shown. One is in Luke 13:10-17. After loosing a woman on the Sabbath from an infirmity which she had had for eighteen years, Christ was criticized by the rulers of the synagogue. His answer was, "Ought not this woman, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, to have been loosed from this bond on the day of the Sabbath?" He clearly stated that Satan was the cause of the infirmity which had bound her physical body. Another incident is found in Mark 2:1-21. A man with palsy is brought to Christ to whom Christ said, "Son, thy sins are forgiven." When the scribes questioned the statement Christ had made, He answered them with this, "Which is easier, to say to the sick of the palsy, Thy sins are forgiven; or to say, Arise, and take up thy bed, and walk?" In reality Christ is saying this, "Which is easier? Wherein is the difference to forgive sins which are the results of Spiritual Death in man's spirit, or to heal the disease of his physical body, which is the result also of the same Spiritual Death." In either case Christ was dealing with the bondage of man to Satan. To see more fully the attitude of Christ toward disease and the place healing played in His ministry, read the following: The Bible in the Light of our Redemption - EW Kenyon Kindly share
