DESCRIPTION:
HEALING
WHEN YOU LEAST FEEL LIKE IT
Discouragement is like a
blanket of death. It can paralyze you with inaction, loss
of faith, and no hope. Discouragement is a tool of the
devil. The enemy of your soul wants you to STOP ACTION: he wants
you to stop believing for MIRACLES, and for the touch of G-d in
your life.
Let’s look for a moment at
the definitions of “discouragement.”
1. Preventing something from happening by making it more difficult or unpleasant.
2. Trying to stop a person from doing something.
3. Making somebody feel less motivated, confident, or optimistic.
The 15th
Century root from the Old French word “descoragier” means “to
deprive of courage.”
Discouragement
can rob you of healing and of success in any endeavor if
you let it.
Satan, the
devil, is a REAL spirit being. He does NOT want you to succeed in
anything. The only success he wants you to have is for his
purposes. And, your soul – including the destruction of your mental
and physical well being - is his purpose. That’s what he is after.
The enemy wants your soul: for eternity, and, my friend,
PART of eternity is NOW.
When Messiah
was on earth, He told us: “The thief (the devil) comes not, but
for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they
might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.”
(Brit Chadashah / Yochanan 10:10)
It is the
devil’s will - and goal - to destroy your health, your wealth, and
your joy. “The JOY of the LORD is your
strength.” (Tanach / Ketuvim: Nehemiah 8:10) The Good
News is that, it is the WILL of the LORD, Yeshua ha
Meshiach, for you to have life more abundantly. This includes your
health, your wealth, and your joy.
Whether you are
healthy and successful, or sick and in poverty, the devil’s goal is
the same. As a matter of fact, the enemy loves to kick people when
they are down. He is a major bully.
This is
WHY you have to take a stand: first of all spiritually, then
mentally and physically.
When King
David’s followers were thinking about stoning him, after their loss
at Ziklag (1 Samuel 30:6) the Bible tells us, “David
encouraged himself in the LORD his
God.”
When you are
discouraged, you have to STAND UP on the inside and encourage
yourself in the LORD. You must remind yourself:
G-d is for you.
G-d loves you and sent His Son, Yeshua ha Meshiach, as your Atonement.
G-d has provided healing – spiritual, mental, and physical - in that atonement. “With His stripes we are healed.” (Tanakh: Isaiah Chapter 53)
Trust Messiah
today – call upon Him NOW! Ask Him to save you and heal
you. Pray this prayer:
“God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, I WAS discouraged but NOW I am going to stand up on the inside and resist the devil. I ask you to reveal to me if Yeshua (Jesus) is really my Messiah. Please save me and heal me. Thank you!"
Isaiah Chapter
53 in the Tanakh is a wonderful prophecy 750 years before
time about Messiah’s sacrifice for you to purchase your
healing. Read it below:
“Who hath believed our message? And to whom has the arm of JHWH been revealed?
For he grew up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he has no form nor comeliness; and when we see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
He was despised, and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and as one from whom men hide their face he was despised; and we esteemed him not.
Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows; yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and YHWH hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
He was oppressed, yet when he was afflicted he opened not his mouth; as a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and as a sheep that before its shearers is dumb, so he opened not his mouth.
By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who [among them] considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living for the transgression of my people to whom the stroke (was due)?
And they made his grave with the wicked, and with a rich man in his death; although he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
Yet it pleased JHWH to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shall make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see [his] seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of JHWH shall prosper in his hand.
He shall see of the travail of his soul, [and] shall be satisfied: by the knowledge of himself shall my righteous servant justify many; and he shall bear their iniquities.
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he poured out his soul unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors: yet he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.”
- Isaiah Chapter 53 (Tanakh)
