Jesus is the Express Image of God

  1. If you want to know God, see Jesus. Jesus is the express image of God (Heb 1:3)
  2. Jesus is always in healing business : always delivering, cleansing, forgiving people and prosperity business : he multiplied what is little and 12 full basketful left over. Jesus always provides more than enough
  3. We can learn what God does from what Jesus does in the books of Gospel
  4. The Holy Spirit is Jesus unlimited. He is named as parakletos, another helper. Exactly the same Jesus.
  5. Holy Spirit can only bear witness to the truth
  6. What happened in spirit can affect to body. The power of evil spirit made effect to body like in the story of demon possessed man in Gedara, how much more the Holy Spirit like in the story of Samson. Another example when Elijah overrun King Ahab with chariot
  7. Isaiah 48:17
    Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, The Holy One of Israel:
    “I am the Lord your God, Who teaches you to profit, Who leads you by the way you should go.”
  8. Profit in parenting, business, whatever you undertake and His path is the path of peace, prosperity, wholeness, well being.
  9. Jesus is healing (health) and prospering (wealth). Gospel of grace and peace will produce health and provision more than enough
  10. Follow the Lord and the blessings will overtake you
  11. Psalm 92:12-15
    12The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
    13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
    14 They shall still bear fruit in old age;They shall be [a]fresh and [b]flourishing,
    15 To declare that the Lord is upright;He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
  12. You will be like a palm tree and cedar tree, full of zap (oil – anointing) in your old age, you are still green (ranan-hebrews). In your old age, you still bring forth fruits
  13. Psalm 103
    1Bless the Lord, O my soul; And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
    2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:
    3 Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases,
    4 Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies,
    5 Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
  14. Sometimes we are hard to belive God’s word. Actually He can not lie. Illustration: when you are onboard in plane, you hear pilot’s voice and you are relax and trust the pilot can do his job. We sit relx and trust the pilot. We never question whether he actually can fly the plane. In the same token, we need to believe God’s word and voice.
  15. Jesus is the Spirit of Truth. The more we contact the Spirit, the more we walk in truth. Experts in the world are divided in their opinions.
  16. To the extent you are experiencing negative emotions, to that extent you believe lies. The antidote to set you from depression, stress and anxiety is the truth.
  17. Lie works to steal, kill and destroy. Truth heals you, delivers you, saves you, sets you free. You can not save yourself by good performance, efforts, only by grace through faith.
  18. Pray : unveil to me the truths that You know I need that will set me free.
  19. Your negative emotions are indicators that you are believing a lie.
  20.  “If you abide/continue/focus in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:31-32
  21. The truth that you know will set you free
  22. judge 14:6 The Spirit came mightily (saleach-prospers) upon him. Prospers (saleach) – Psalm 1 and Joshua 1:8. The Holy Spirit always prospers you
  23. The Holy Spirit dwells in you. People under the old covenant can not pray in the spirit. Seven gifts of HS are in Old Covenant but tongues and interpretation were not.
  24. Pray : give me a word that will minister Christ to Rayna
  25. HS leads with illumination , revelation, inspiration, gentle thoughts, instinct, intution. Tell God your problem and pray in tongues and then let float up the answer from rivers within. The answer is already inside. Proverbs 20:5 Counsel in the heart of man is like deep water, but a man of understanding will draw it out.
  26. When you pray in tongues, the devil can not decode it.
  27. John 16:12-14 12 “I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come. 14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.
  28. Truth about parenting, relationship etc
  29. Jesus is our exemplar, He is the forerunner. He did not draw from His godness, He had to be baptized by the Holy Spirit otherwise He could not do miracles, He did not have the power to do miracles.
  30. The brain want to logic in everything. The way of the Lord mostly above human reasonings. The way of faith vs the way of logic
  31. You are not your body, you live in a body. You are a spirit and have a soul and live in a body. Your spirit can know faster than your mind.
  32. Truth resonates. 1 John 2:20 you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.21 I have not written to you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
  33. I write to you because you know it, not because you donot know it. Deep call upon deep.
  34. The first thing you experience when you are baptized with the HS is that you feel loved by God. Romans 5:5 Now hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
  35. Everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins (Acts 10:43-44). The HS loves the message of grace.
  36. Fell upon him is the same word when the father embraced his prodigal son.
  37. Romans 8:16 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God
  38. The HS is the Spirit of Sonship
  39. The HS teaches you to profit and lead you in the way you should go
  40. The sinful deeds will put you to death or you put death the sinful deeds by Spirit , not by the sheerful determination
  41. Everytime you believe, actually you repent. Everytime you look to God, you turn back from sin because sin and God do not go together
  42. God loves you, you are the object of God’s affections and love
