Spiritual Vitamins

Well Praise the Lord! He along is worthy of our praise! Everyone will take some kind of vitamin/supplement in their lifetime. There are vitamins for just about every area of our health life. There are vitamins for your overall health, for your eyes, joints, skin etc. You name it; it’s out there! We take these vitamins daily, faithfully. When you take the first vitamin the first day, you see no change most of the time. Over time, when taken correctly, you begin to see and feel the benefits of taking the vitamins or supplements. You begin to reap the benefits of taking them daily. Well it’s the same with the Word of God. The Word of God is our spiritual vitamins. The more you use the Word of God, the more you benefit from it. And how do we use the Word of God – by speaking it out of our mouths. And you can’t speak it out of your mouth unless you know it; and you won’t know it unless you read and study it. The more you speak out of your mouth that by the Blood and Stripes of Jesus that you are healed, the more and the quicker healing with come. Faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God (Romans 10:17). You don’t need a preacher to hear the Word of God when the Word is already on the inside of you. The Word is near, very near, in your mouth and in your heart (Romans 10:8 and Deuteronomy 30:14). Now there is nothing wrong with getting agreement for something you’ve already prayed/asked, believing you received it. A lot of times people want prayer without even asking the Father themselves first; they want others to use their faith to pull in their healing or the increase in their finances. The Word of God will work for you just as it does for Joyce Myers, Kenneth Copeland or Creflo Dollar (some of my favorite TV ministers). You can have faith just like theirs but you have to be willing to get in God’s Word and not waver in your faith. You have to settle within yourself that you’re going to believe God’s Word; that God is who His Word says that He is, and that He can do what His Word says He can do. God is no respecter of persons. If He, God, did it for one; He can and will do it for another. But some many of us are so spiritual starved, under nourished because we don’t take time to feed our spiritual selves. It’s ok; you can say “Ouch Hallelujah!” When you know better, you do better! This is why daily confessing of the Word of God is so very important especially in these last days. When the enemy throws a “monkey wrench” in your plans/your life, there should be a Word already within you to speak out your mouth concerning the situation. Pastor may not be available to pray; you need to be able to speak the Word of God for yourself. The Word of God is the Sword of the Spirit, and it has the power to destroy the works of the enemy causing him, the devil, to cease in his maneuvers and stop in his operations against you and your family. The devil is a liar and a defeated foe where we, the Sons and Daughter of the Most High, are concerned. You just need to make sure you a spiritually healthy before you go into battle, which is every day if you haven’t figured that out by now. God has given us weapons to fight against the tricks of the enemy (Ephesians 6:10-18), but the greatest weapon He has given us is His Word. Start taking your spiritual vitamins today and every day! It does a body good and fantastic for manifesting victories in your life! Did you put your armor on??? Be Encouraged Today!!! Remember there's a sinner's prayer on this site. If you have back-slid or haven't tasted and seen that the Lord is Good, say this prayer. You don't have to be in a church building to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. There is a moment that will happen, and it will happen in a twinkling of an eye (as fast as you can blink), and those who have confessed Jesus as Lord and have walked according to the Word of God will be raptured up to be with Him forever and ever. Yes, it sounds too fantastical to be real, but don't take the chance that it's not and be left behind. So don't put this off. No one knows the hour or the day when this will take place, but it is for us to be ready when it's time to go. The first step is to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. If you say this prayer, contact me; let me welcome you and personally encouraged you in your new life with Jesus!
