Is there power in the word of God?

In this new age and time, many have dismissed, or diminished the powers and ability that the Word of God possesses, as to think God changes with the times and age. Because of so many false prophets and people who claimed to be healers sent by God, disbelief has surfaced and blinds many people. However, God's Word is as great and powerful as it was written in the beginning, and to all who desire to experience the marvelous results that it offers, it's available for you.

According to Proverbs 16:24, the wisest man the Bible (Solomon) said “Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones” (NIV)

In Isaiah 55:10-11 God speaks “ As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it” (NIV)

In other words, there is power in God's word; but you must speak it. God Himself said it will not return to Him empty. The Word of God is sealed and approve by God Himself.
When you speak the Word of God, you are tapping into the power source of All Mighty God.

For example, in Luke 4 :1-4, “And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God” And two more times Jesus repeated this same statement, it is written.

There are many people who don't believe you can be healed from what is written is God's Menu, and they have blinded the eyes of those who want to believe it does. The miracles that were performed by Jesus has been said to be mere stories by just a good man.

However, When Jesus had entered Capernaum; a centurion came to him, asking for help. “Lord,” he said, “my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly.” Jesus said to him, “Shall I come and heal him?” The centurion replied, “Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed. (Matthew 8:5-8 NIV)

If you are seeking healing from the Great God Almighty, speak God’s Word, and expect the power of that Word to bring forth healing.

You Are Healed by Eating Spiritual Food

The human body is two in one. Two bodies, both a physical and a spiritual, make up one body. Each individual body needs to be fed to survive. Each has its own kind of food and nutrients, but they both need each other to survive because they are one. Jesus said, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. (Matthew 4:4) They both rely heavily on each other.

The physical body is your responsibility, and it's your obligation to ensure that it is well taken care of. The spiritual body is God's responsibility, and it's His obligation to ensure that it is well taken care of.

When the physical body is hungry, it craves for natural food. Even if you provide spiritual food, it will last for only a while and then you must eat, or else you will die. However, because the spiritual body needs the physical body to operate on earth, you have to take care of it with diligence. In others words, feed it with what it needs, not what it wants.

Concerning the spiritual body, it also craves for food when it is hungry. This is God's responsibility. That's why He provided His Word. His Word is His food--the spiritual body. The only reason why you are told to read and study the Word is because the spirit lives in you. Once your spirit is well fed and taken care of, it will be revealed through the physical body.

Can a hallow body dwell in the same space as an unhallowed body? Not a chance. Can the natural body survive without spiritual food? Not very long. Keep in mind that the spiritual is the Holy Spirit, which is God Himself. All you have to do is feed God His food and watch what happens to your illness or disease. They cannot dwell in the same space as God. One has to go. Just in case you didn't know, you are healed when you eat spiritual food.

Does the word of God?

In this new age and time, many have dismissed, or diminished the powers and ability that the Word of God possesses, as to think God changes with the times and age. Because of so many false prophets and people who claimed to be healers sent by God, disbelief has surfaced and blinds many people. However, God’s Word is as great and powerful as it was written in the beginning, and to all who desire to experience the marvelous results that it offers, it’s available for you.

According to 2 Corinthians: 1-4, Therefore, since through God's mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart. Rather, we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to every man's conscience in the sight of God. And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

There are many gods that don’t believe you can be healed from what is written is God’s Menu, and they have blinded the eyes of those who want to believe it does. The miracles that were performed by our Lord Jesus has been said to be mere stories by just a good man. But I say to you, if you have an illness and you are seeking healing from the Great God Almighty, turn a deaf ear to the unbeliever and hear what the Holy Spirit is saying to you. You can and will be healed by the Word of God.

What is a illness?

What is an illness or a disease? In the world, the doctor may call this a medical condition, a specific disorder or a serious problem that affects the physical body. This may also be called bad health or even indisposition. Although this may be correct according to medical terms, you also must understand that the same God who said to Moses in Exodus 3:14, I AM THAT I AM is the same God who controls this physical disability that the doctor calls a problem. In actuality, this is not really a problem at all, unless you make it a problem.

He/Jesus never sinned, nor ever deceived anyone. He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly. He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds you are healed. (1 Peter 2: 22-24 NLT)

WHAT’S ON THE MENU? Steps to Healing & Breakthrough

How do you heal? What are its most important components? How do you know whether you have been completely restored? Author Carl Mathis answers all these questions and more in a completely eye-opening way in his new e-book titled What's on the Menu. (http://www.CarlMathisBooks.com)

Powerfully written and inspired, the book is a spiritual take on the concept of healing. Mathis believes that there is simply more to healing than just the physical restoration of your body's health. “I believe that spirituality plays a vital, if not essential, role in the process of healing,” he says. “In fact, I believe that you can't truly heal completely without it.”

With this in mind, Mathis makes a deep exploration of the spiritual dimension of healing, touching on the all-important points of believing in God and the benefits of enjoying a personal relationship with Him. He also explains the vitality of making the Word of God—the Bible—and prayer a regular part of your life, particularly if you are praying for healing.

“Jesus is our ultimate healing source,” he shares. “And the fact is that we all need to have a personal relationship with Him so that we can connect to Him and pray for the healing of our bodies, no matter what illness we are afflicted with. This relationship needs to be developed and nurtured through the reading of the Word and prayer, which we should make a habit of.”

He stresses that the Bible contains powerful messages that speak to the spiritual soul and somehow bring about physical restoration and full health. “In order to be healed, we need to receive the Word, believe in it, and confess it,” he declares. “And of course, we cannot do all this without that relationship to begin with. And the benefit of such a relationship is immense—not only can you experience physical healing in Jesus' name, but by committing your life to Him, you are gaining something that lasts beyond death—eternal life.”

Mathis has packed the e-book with Biblical references peppered with thought-provoking insights on the power of spirituality and how it helps bring about healing. Each chapter delicately touches on different aspects of spirituality—Jesus, prayer and the Bible—and how each one can be utilized to deepen your spiritual walk, and, as a result, bring about healing that has been blessed by the ultimate healing source.

At the end of the day, Mathis hopes that What's on the Menu will enlighten every individual on the concept of authentic healing and why spirituality is a powerful—and necessary—part of it. “We all need to realize that it's not just about getting out of that hospital and going back to the daily grind,” he says. “It's all about coming back a changed person with a changed perspective—that we are not just living for ourselves any longer. We are living for a far greater cause, and our healed bodies are a testimony of God's power and greatness.”
