The Word, My Faith & Testimony

Posted : 12 Oct, 2009 02:33 PM

This post is Topic written is response to issues posed in my last Topic which was completely cluttered abd buried by other issues by those who replied.



The best way that I believe I can be of service to my friends who have not experienced the miraculous power of God in a way that brings them to an understanding that God intends us to walk in that power � and that that power is available to them at this very moment, regardless of their circumstances and/or who they are � is to share truths I have learned from the Word of God and how God did miracles in my life. One of my primary gifts & my calling is as a teacher. In teaching I am also strengthened in the truth. I certainly haven�t arrived, but by God�s grace I am moving in the right direction.



The first thing one has to understand that Gods willingness to perform miracles is not based on our performance or who we are as a person, but it is based on being purchased by the blood and the atonement of Christ and our willingness to believe God. If it were based on our works �no one� would receive anything from God. Romans 3:10 As it is written: "There is no one righteous, not even one;� Romans 3:23 (KJV) 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;



When God looks at us, regardless of our past or sin that we have in our life, He sees the righteousness of Christ, Romans 3:24-25 (KJV) 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

25 Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in His blood, to declare His righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; This makes it clear that our justification is not through our works but through our faith in Christ.



God is willing and happy (He is �pleased�) to give you all of the blessings & power He has made available to ALL believers. Acts 10:34 (KJV) 34 Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: Luke 12:32 (KJV) 32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom. Psalms 35:27 (KJV) 27 Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause: yea, let them say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant. 1 Corinthians 4:19-20 (KJV) 19 But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.20 For the kingdom of God is not in word, but in power. Luke 1:37 WEB For no word from God will be void of power." Ephesians 6:10 (KJV) 10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.



MY TESTIMONY � Miracles & God�s word

The first miracle of healing a physical condition. It confirms the word of God above. I had been saved many years prior but had opened a door early on to the devil through my self-will and my mind had become increasingly darkened � and I suffered the consequences of sin which included becoming addicted to alcohol & cocaine. I had come to a place where I felt I was without hope and abandoned by God. Of course that was a lie from the enemy.



Although I had no Christian friends except one who had major problems of his own God began to show me that His word is absolutely true and began doing little miracles in response to prayer.



My first physical healing was a very dramatic one. I had a progressive problem with one of my feet which it appeared would require treatment by a specialist and every week the pain grew worse. As I walked back from the grocery store with groceries in one hand and my dog on a leash in the other the pain became too much to bare � and I could not take even one more step. A moment later the Holy Spirit brought to my remembrance some seeds that had been planted and told me what to pray. I prayed �Father, I thank you that your word is true and you can not lie. I thank you and praise you.. that �by Jesus� stripes I am healed�.. and the devil is a liar�



A moment later I took a step without any fear and the pain was �completely� gone. About 3 weeks later I climbed a nearby mountain without any problem.



About 6 months later I gave myself a hernia moving a large crate, although at the time I did not realize what I had done. Every night for about 10 nights afterwards, whenever I would turn in my bed, I would feel a sharp pain in my side. Each night the pain would be worse than the night before. On approximately the tenth night the pain was so great I couldn�t take it. The Holy Spirit reminded me to pray the same prayer and immediately the pain disappeared and never returned.



Although God had shown me His unconditional love for me and I was moving as fast and as hard as I could to know His love in the way I did when I was first saved, I still had a long way to go to really to get free from the cocaine and to keep those doors closed. And the devil was more determined than ever to try and kill me while he had the best opportunity. I also became aware that there was a plan by some drug dealers to kill me, although I had never cheated them, and I was shot at with guns on two different occasions. Without any doubt at all it was by God�s intervention and probably others prayers that I lived through all of this



A couple of years later, when God showed me an amazing teaching ministry that teaches on God�s unconditional love and grace (AWMI) it became obvious to me that I had a tremendous amount of work to do to get rid of all of the false Bible doctrine and carnal thinking, as much as possible and as quickly as possible. So I started the reprogramming process spending about the next 1 � years in intensive Bible study with the help of all of the best study tools I could find.



At one point, as a result of the Bible teachings I received, I was able to pray away an injury to a finger before it even had time to manifest � as it had been slammed in a van door and with about 250 lbs of pressure on my middle finger. I was able to do so by praying in the Spirit and also by commanding healing to my hand and giving thanks for my healing in Jesus� name. Much of that I learned through AWMI�s teachings. And I have also been able to use those techniques on other physical problems



Proverbs 18:20 (KJV)

20 A man's belly shall be satisfied with the fruit of his mouth; and with the increase of his lips shall he be filled.

Proverbs 18:21 (KJV)

21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

�Cancer� (problem) in the name of Jesus I curse you. Death and life are in the power of the tongue. I use the power of this tongue to curse you. I command you to die cancer in Jesus name. Now I release life into you body. I command the parts of you that have been damaged by cancer to be healed in Jesus name.�

�Heavenly Father, I thank you and praise you that by Jesus' stripes I am healed. Your word is true and the devil is a liar�

Mark 11:21 (KJV)

21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

Mark 11:22 (KJV)

22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

Mark 11:23 (KJV)

23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.



Speak to the problem rather than to God about the problem. This is faith that we believe that God has given the authority to do these things as Jesus stated above that He did.



There is power in what is said when what is said is believed from the heart.



Romans 10:9 (KJV)

9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

Here again we see that power and change occurs as a result of speech and believing from the heart.



James 5:16 (KJV)

16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
