1 Samuel 30:6

Look to God where you will find help and Help will come to you. Look deep and rest on the finished works of Jesus. Jesus is a healer. Those who are sick run to him once he is around. He won't let them remain sick. Before you speak a word, first encourage yourself in God's word. Those words came from heaven. They are the words that will discover your healing. 

Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. James 5:14. 

Before you speak a word. You must first be convinced that the name of the Lord Jesus can help you. At the name of Jesus (said with conviction) angels will troop out from every side to rescue those who call that name.

I can understand that such knowledge is above us but I sometimes like to chant " in the name of Jesus" severally before I make my statement. It gives me conviction that my words are coming with order from above with powerful angels taking the order. 

quote God's word: "The Lord gives sight to the blind, the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down, the Lord loves the righteous" Psalm 146:8

call "in Jesus name" and your words will climb up by faith. And find the solution as you encourage yourself in the Lord.

Prayer: In the name of Jesus (4x) I have found my way. Jesus is my way. I am saved. I am blessed, good health is mine. I am secured. In the name of Jesus.

May we not lose our salvation. Everybody has the old wine in their wineskin unless the Spirit of Christ dwell inside of you, you cannot enter into the Kingdom of God.

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 2 Corinthians 5:17

John 3:3 

To be born again means you have made a renewed or confirmed commitment of faith in Jesus Christ and pledge to follow his ways and do the will of God. 

Jesus said in Mark 3:35 that My true brother and sister and mother are those who do what God wants.”

If you are in the old wineskin, come to the new wineskin which is the Lord Jesus so that you can have seamless peace of mind.

“I leave you peace. It is my own peace I give you. I give you peace in a different way than the world does. So don’t be troubled. Don’t be afraid.

Jesus Christ (John 14:27)

Prayer: I am chosen by Christ, my salvation is from his Spirit. I believe in Jesus. I believe in His grace. Amen
