SPRINGBOARD DAILY DEVOTIONAL

“Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick….”
(James 5:14-15)

The Bible especially in the epistles teaches us what to do when healing is needed. It reveals to us that the believer has inherent power to heal the sick. This is true but unfortunately, a lot of believers in some churches, don’t accept, recognize, preach about or mention the power of God. There are many good ministries who do talk about good Christian virtues like humility, love, patience etc. but do not go on to talk about the power of God.
The new creation church is a wholesome church such that no one should be sick, however if anyone is sick, healing should be ministered to such a person. By my survey, I discover that people have withdrawn and gradually moved away from the power side of God they have moved away from the supernatural and the Bible speaking says, “some will have a form of godliness but denying the power thereof…”(2 Timothy 3:5).
But you see, as  a believer, you’ve been mandated to heal the sick because you can. The Bible says; “Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick” (Luke 9:1-2). It is our responsibility to heal the sick; we’re to pray with faith, boldness and the expectation that what we decree in prayer will come to pass.
We have been given the authority in the Name of Jesus to issue decrees with daring audacity and have them established. Even though some people think that those who believe in miracles are weird and unbalanced; some even say that poverty and backwardness is what makes people believe in supernatural power. But the truth is that the supernatural is real and where it is overlooked in Christianity then we would be practicing philosophy.
The nature of God has been imparted to your spirit at salvation; you’re the one to heal the sick. So any time you have the sick around you, just pray in faith and you will see the manifestation of God’s power. Be conscious of who you’re and what you can do.

PRAYER:
 Dear Father, I thank you for the assurance I have that I am called to heal. I pray boldly on the sick and healing follows, in Jesus name – Ame

 WE PASSIONATELY CARE ABOUT YOU
     We believe there is a void in every person that only a relationship with God can fill. We’re not referring to finding religion or joining a particular church we are referring to having a relationship with your heavenly father through his son Jesus Christ. We believe that knowing him is the source of true peace and fulfillment in life we encourage you to pray thus: Jesus, I believe you died for me and rose from the dead I hereby confess you as my lord and savior. I receive the life of God into my spirit and now am born again.

Thank you lord Jesus for the new life I have now in you. In Jesus name – amen

                                                  January 29. “So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11) The life that we’ve been called to live in Christ is the transcendent life. It is a life that’s far removed from failure and defeat. It is a life in the word of God. To manifest the glory and splendor of this life, the word of God should become an integral part of us; what we live by. At salvation, we became associates of the God-kind; we’re joint heirs with Christ. Why then should any Christian suffer defeat and pain? The problem is that we’ve not given the word of God its proper place in our lives. God gave us His word to live by. His word is the revelation of His will, nature and character an...

February 18. “The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working)” (James 5:16 Amp) The happenings in our environments and the world over calls for our importunity in prayer. Out of ignorance a lot of people are blaming God for certain occurrences in their lives. But if things must change in the direction of God’s original plans and purposes, then we must keep praying. God knows that there’s no situation a child of His cannot change because the divine power necessary to effect such change is already resident in you; it was deposited in you the moment you became born again. God doesn’t expect you to cry out for help or start complaining but He expects you to enforce your victory in the place of prayer. I Kings 17 tells us of Elijah’s  confrontation with Ahab the king where he said, “… As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my ...

                                                  January 19. “And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great” (Genesis 26:13) Child of God, your journey this year has been ordained only in one direction – upward and forward. This is exactly the way God has called you to live your life. He wants your life to be that of progressand advancement – not in theory but practically. It means that at the end of this year, success will be evidently seen in every area of your life. This is because as a joint heir with Christ, you have the nature to be absolutely successful. You must therefore make up your mind to develop a consciousness – a mentality that’s consistent with your personality in Christ. Bible says, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he” (Proverbs 23:7). So, you must refuse thoughts of failure occupy your heart bec...
