And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as
crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either
side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree
yielding its fruit every month. The
leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations (Revelation 22:1-2).
Wow,
if we have discussed the life-long processes and blessings of bearing and
harvesting the nine Fruits of the Spirit, can you imagine just what the other
three will do to our glorified bodies in heaven?! O, what we have to look forward
to—everlasting life—and there shall be no more curse, but the
throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him
(Rev. 22:3).
And who are His servants? We are the ones redeemed to God by His blood out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation (Rev. 5:9c).
For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, and their
eyes they have closed, lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their
ears, lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, so that I
should heal them
(Acts
28:27).
It’s
time to stop weeping, Children of God, stop hating and being rooted in
bitterness. The works of the flesh
(Galatians 5:19-21) will quench the Holy Spirit and prevent Him from
manifesting His Fruits in you (Galatians 5:22-23). You must let go of the pain. What’s troubling us the most is not being
able to get rid of the pain—for some of us the pain is pounding; others the
pain is dull and eerie and is like a still small voice constantly reminding us
to stay angry at that old oppressive invisible “man”.
Don’t
grow used to the pain, dear Christian.
Do accept it as a permanent part of your life. IT’S TIME TO BE SET FREE into abundant life,
energetic physical, emotional and spiritual health. You are a child of God; and our Father will
never leave you. He’s only a breath
away—waiting for you to simply A.S.K.: Ask for His forgiveness for the
stubbornness/disobedience in you that has put you in this pain you’re in. Seek for His favour and mercy. Knock on the door of His heart through
prayer, fasting, meditation of His Word—in other words, draw closer to God and
the devil (the pain, the fear) will flee from you.
A
challenge has been thrown at us today in a form of biological warfarecalled
COVID-19 (waging war not only on our physical/emotional bodies, but also on our spiritual and socioeconomic stability) . Our nations can be healed when
we put away our pain, and unite as one human family to find the cure and fight
back by choosing to LIVE IN OBEDIENCE TO GOD’S WORD—by choosing to put our
differences down, and rise up joining our scientific and technological
resources to combatting this furious foe.
Sometimes
we build our own prison of pain by the wrong choices we make (can’t blame all
our suffering on the devil). The devil
can only wait to see what choice we make, then he knows how to put the shackles
on you when you break the Law of Christ.
But when you bear the multitude harvest of the Fruits of the Holy Spirit,
you manifest the power, the capability, to break those satanic strongholds . .
. and be free, to love yourself again, to be wholly healed.
The Fruits of the Spirit are your character formation; and you must be transformed by the renewing of your mind (the driver of your soul). You must change from disobedience to complete obedience in Christ and in His Word.
I
beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your
bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable
service. And do not be conformed to this
world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what
is good and acceptable and the perfect will of God (Romans
12:1-2).
THE
PERFECT WILL OF GOD IS THE BEARING OF HIS FRUITS—TO BECOME LIKE HIS SON JESUS
CHRIST and
TO
UNITE AS ONE PEOPLE.
Prayer For
the Nations
Holy
Spirit,
Fall
afresh upon every tribe of every nation
Tear us
apart in the inner man and destroy that which gives us pain.
Please
forgive us of our sins masked in murders,
hailed in
hatred, buried in bitterness and brutality.
And
shower your mercies upon us mere flesh and bones.
May you
ignite a fire, a passion in us, for serving you, O Lord
In Spirit
and in Truth
Proving
what is good and right by you;
Then put
us back together again that Your love be our love
Your
power our power; Your mind our mind, Your heart our heart
And Your
hands our hands to help us reach out and touch
Somebody’s
life as channels of healing
making
this earthly world a reflection of our home in heaven.
In Jesus
Name we pray.
Amen
