Note: Again this is not a Summons Message. It is the Holy Spirit through Ruben asking the question, which came about due to him hearing of so many people testing positive for the COVID-19 virus and the fearful response of most everyone concerning this situation in the earth; to the point that many of God’s people are praying out of their fear! I would encourage everyone to listen closely to Holy Spirit as you read this message. I believe there is something here for all of us.
For The Journey and Ruben,
Judy
“So, you or someone you know has tested positive for the virus. Are they having symptoms? Are they in the hospital? What do you really know? Let’s be sure to have ALL the facts before gathering family members and friends to pray, so that we pray specifically, not speaking out something in prayer over someone that they may not even have. Be led by Holy Spirit as you pray, and pray in faith believing, not from a place of fear! If unsure pray both in tongues and with your understanding.
*(Romans 8:26-28MSG). Remember we have a Mighty God, more powerful than anything we may ever face in this life.
“Do not be a ‘wanna be’ Christian, going to church on Sunday and Wednesday because it’s tradition. That’s religion! It’s a form of godliness but there’s no power in it! **(2Timothy 3:5). Do not just read your Bible everyday from habit, or like a bedtime story, not eating and taking it in that it may increase your walk and empower your life.
“And do not pray out of tradition, because it’s the thing to do. It is time to take the mantle of authority Yeshua gave to us, not just speak a few light words without taking authority over a disease or the spirit behind it! Because that’s what it is, a spirit! When are we going to learn how to pray?” ***(Ephesians 6: 10-18).
“How much longer will we continue to be content only drinking the milk of the Word? ****(Hebrews 5: 13-14). Why do we listen to all the negative and evil in the atmosphere around us? There are people speaking for the Father and being persecuted! There are people being thrown in jail for simply speaking the name of Yeshua! This is harsh to us because we try to look and see where we’re at and where we’ll go; how far we’ll go. Do you not think that the Father looks upon us daily and puts His hands on His head and says, “Wow! They still don’t get it! I sacrificed My Son so they could have eternal life and they misuse this—they misuse this!
“My people did not hear My Son cry out in agony! They did not hear His voice every time they took a piece of His flesh! Every sound that He made it was for you! Every single drop of His Blood was for you! Will you ever understand what He suffered so you could have eternity? So you could have and enjoy life? Yet when things go wrong you still panic and get into fear! And go backward instead of forward! You go backward! How could this happen? That people still do not grasp what My Son did for My people?
“Even My Son looked at Me and said, “FATHER!” “Called My name, looked at Me, “FATHER! WHY have You abandoned Me? WHY have You abandoned Me?” Let people take this and realize that I sent My Son for them and they still live in a lukewarm atmosphere! Can they not stand like warriors and call My name like My Son did? Do you think that My Son was not thirsty? That He was not tired? Do you not think that He was weary? Do you think what it took for Him to carry that cross another step, and another step, so you could live?
“Not to be divided brother against brother and sister against sister as is happening, but to call out to Me and take another step! And when you’re in a situation can you not just call My name? My Son said, “FATHER! FATHER! FATHER!” “How much longer are you going to be weak? How much longer will you go backwards? What does it take for you to stand tall? I’ve given you My Word! I’ve given you My Word! I gave you My Word, My Word that I sealed with My Son’s Blood! I say it again, if you draw to Me, I will draw to you. *****(James 4:7, 8). If My people humble themselves and repent for their weakness, for being lukewarm, for not being strong, for not reading the Word and putting it to practice, for not believing, not having faith; I will hear their prayer! I will hear their cries! I will see their hearts! And I will forgive them! And I will heal their land!” ******(2Chronicles 7:14).
“For I AM THAT I AM! And I will always be I AM THAT I AM! Listen to My Prophets! There’s news in the atmosphere. Go! Tell My people what was spoken. So let it be done. So let it be written.”
*(Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.” (Romans 8:26-28 MSG).
**”For [although] they hold a form of piety (true religion), they deny and reject and are strangers to the power of it [their conduct belies the genuineness of their profession]. Avoid [all] such people [turn away from them].” (2 Timothy 3:5 AMPC).
***“Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.”
(Ephesians 6:10-20 NIV)
****”Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.”
(Hebrews 5:13-14 NIV)
*****”Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.”
(James 4:7-10 NIV)
******”if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
(2 Chronicles 7:14 NIV)
