THE LANGUAGE OF THE HEAVENLY

PASTOR CHRIS
..The inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity (Isaiah 33:24).

Your words reveal your origin. What you say is the expression of who you are and where you’re from. In other words, your speech unveils your nature. If you’re born of God, then your language must reflect your heavenly nature and divine origin.

You hail from God. You’re born after the second and last Adam, the Lord from heaven; therefore, you’re a heavenly being (1 Corinthians 15:47-48). You have a heavenly life, with its own consciousness, its own characteristics, and its own language.

This is where many miss it. They acknowledge they’re born again, but their communication doesn’t align with their origin. They still speak the language of the earthlings: words of fear, weakness, defeat and limitation. Don’t speak like the world because you’re not of this world: “They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world” (John 17:16). Speak from heaven.

And what does that mean in practical terms? It means your speech must be consistent with your nature in Christ and aligned with the Word of God. The inhabitants of Zion don’t speak sickness. That’s what the Scripture says: “The inhabitants shall not say, I am sick.” It’s not merely a statement; it’s a culture, a consciousness, and a way of life.

There’s a language that goes with your nature in Christ. You don’t talk lack, you don’t talk defeat, and you don’t talk fear, because that’s not who you are. Your words carry power. They transmit life, strength, health, victory, righteousness and prosperity. Therefore, speak the language of the Kingdom.

Speak like the Master. Speak only what God says. The Bible declares, “...He hath said…so that we may boldly say…” (Hebrews 13:5-6). That’s the pattern: He says it, and you say the same in agreement. Refuse to speak contrary to your nature. Refuse to align your words with circumstances. You’re not governed by what you see or feel; you’re governed by the Word. Speak faith-filled, life-giving words. Speak the language of the heavenly.

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for the life of Christ in me and for my heavenly nature. I speak in alignment with your Word, and my words are filled with power, life and grace. I speak health, strength, victory and righteousness today. The communication of my faith is effective, producing results that glorify you, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR BODY

PASTOR CHRIS
..Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost...and ye are not your own? (1 Corinthians 6:19).

Did you know that your body isn’t yours? It belongs to Jesus Christ; you were bought with a price. The Bible says, “...therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's” (1 Corinthians 6:20). Even though your body belongs to God, He has entrusted it to you. You’re the custodian of your body; you’re responsible for it.

Many haven’t understood this. They think God is responsible for their body and whatever happens in it. They assume that if they serve God well enough, He’ll automatically take care of their health. But that’s not how it works. You’re responsible for keeping your body in health.

Faithfulness isn’t the same as faith. You can be faithful in serving God and still allow sickness in your body because you haven’t taken your place of dominion. You’re a partaker of the divine nature; you’re not ordinary. You have authority over Satan, sickness, disease, infirmity, and death.

So, refuse to allow sickness or disease gain entrance into your body. Don’t permit it. If you notice symptoms, don’t panic, don’t cry, and don’t accept them. More importantly, don’t beg God to take them away. You’ve been given authority. Exercise it. He said in Matthew 10:8, “Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils….” Notice that He told you to do it.

Don’t beg God to take sickness away from you; rather, destroy it with your faith-filled words. Put your hand on your body and say, “In the Name of Jesus Christ, I command this sickness to get out of my body. This body belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ, and I refuse to allow any sickness in it.”

When you speak like that in the Name of Jesus, that condition has no choice but to go. God is pleased with your faith. The Bible says, “But without faith it is impossible to please him…” (Hebrews 11:6). You don’t cry over sickness; you exercise authority over it. Use the Word to keep your body in health; this is God’s will for you: “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth” (3 John 1:2).

CONFESSION

I have the life of God in me, and it fully inundates my body. Sickness, disease and infirmity have no place in me because my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. I walk in health, strength and perfection. Hallelujah!

Proverbs 4:20-22 KJV
- My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.
21 - Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.
22 - For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

‭‭Romans 8:10-11 KJV
- And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.
11 - But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.

‭‭1 Peter 2:24 NIV
- “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.”
