From The Pastor’s desk
Beloved,
I bring you Scheduled Blessings greetings, in the Name of Jesus, The Great Physician. The mercy and peace of God the Father be multiplied to you.
The past five weeks we have come to know, and for some, enforce the belief that praise is an instrument of victory in the hands of the believer. It will destroy depression and every form of anxiety. We have the God given right to use praise as vengeance to execute the written judgement against the enemy. Remember, whatever He tells you to do, do it, and God will bless you for your obedience. John 2:5 and John 13:17 NLT
But what is the Holy Spirit saying to us as a church and individuals for the month of September? From the beginning God’s plan has been the total wellness of His people. The first man was never sick, neither did he die of disease. From scriptures we find that sickness was only introduced to humanity after the fall of man. In the midst of that dispensation, everyone that obeyed the Lord enjoyed divine health. Exodus 15:25. All through the wilderness journey the Bible says that not one person was sick amongst about the three to four million people led by Moses. The Great Physician was amongst them as their Healer.
However, we understand that in the New Covenant or Testament, we have a better covenant based on better promises. Hebrews 8:6 The Bible records that prior to His death on the cross, Jesus in human form healed all manner of sicknesses and diseases. Matthew 4:23 and Acts 10:38. God gave Jesus as our ransom and substitute. On the cross, when Jesus said …it is finished… John 19:30, He took all our sicknesses and diseases upon Himself Matthew 8:17. Jesus is the ransom (Job 33:21-25) that guarantees the believers perfect soundness in their health.
From the beginning God wants you well and healthy and we know He has not changed. Hebrews 13:8. God has packaged everything the believer will ever need in the Name of Jesus. Through that Name, you and I are authorized to live a sickness free and disease free life. Healing is not a promise that God will fulfill. It has been fulfilled 1 Peter 2:24. Perfect Soundness has been credited to the account of every believer.
Therefore, this month is declared as our Month of Perfect Soundness and the anchor scriptures are Matthew 8:17 and Acts 3:16.
Whatever has challenged your redemption rights shall give way to the light of God coming your way this season, in the Name of Jesus Christ.
I welcome you to September; your Month of Perfect Soundness. Rejoice and be glad because Jesus is your ransom.
Until Next Time, remember, God Is On Your Side!
Yours in Christ,
Benson Oritsejolomisan
