Newness in faith!

I am in awe of God's integrity. God has fulfilled each promise he has ever made with those who walk in covenant with him. I have entered into a better understanding of what a "blood covenant" is. God opened my understanding as I was seeking answers as to why many people I pray for are not healed. After all Jesus did pay the price for our healing (by his stripes we are healed) and I believe I am using faith in the proper manner. I still don't have all the answers about healing but I did discover that this covenant is much more than just believing. Covenant is a union that only death can close, I commit fully to God and God commits to me. I am a representative of his person and he is my representative. We are one in all aspects of existence. Jesus said, "I and the father are one" and then he said that he would be "one"with whosoever would follow him in complete obedience.What an exciting journey.

S.       31And came down to Capernaum, a city of Galilee, and taught them on the sabbath days.32And they were astonished at his doctrine: for his word was with power.33And in the synagogue there was a man, which had a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice, 34Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? Art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art; the Holy One of God.35And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. And when the devil had thrown him in the midst, he came out of him, and hurt him not.36And they were all amazed, and spake among themselves, saying, What a word is this! For with authority and power he commandeth the unclean spirits, and they come out.37And the fame of him went out into every place of the country round about.

O.      Jesus exercises authority over evil spirits.

A.      The world attributes more power to evil than actually exists. Christians should exercise authority over evil (In the Name of Jesus) and stop living in fear. Our foe is defeated, and powerless in the presence of Jesus.

P.       Father; thank you for the blood covenant, your un-breakable word and calling me into this powerful relationship. Amen.
