The power behind our answered prayers 1/2

A precious truth

Do you know this precious truth, this hidden truth that multiplies the power of all prayers rising to the Father, in the name of Jesus Christ?

It is an invisible truth, hidden from sight but tremendously powerful for those who know it and keep it present in their minds while praying to God.

Here is this truth:

If we are going through the valley of illness, suffering, lack, or discomfort, we are experiencing an unjust illegality because, in truth, "judicially," legally, according to the laws of the kingdom of God, we are already healed.

The offenses that, as we believe, keep us away from the presence of God and therefore from His intervention in our suffering, these offenses, our offenses, have been legally, "judicially" forgiven, erased, and forgotten by God for more than 2000 years, according to the laws of the Kingdom.

This powerful truth must be present in our thoughts while we pray because it is this truth that propels, like a rocket, every prayer to the throne of God.

God will never act based on our merits since we have none. He always acts based on this truth that we need to know. The knowledge of this truth triggers the miracle, the answered prayer. It is what makes Jesus say, "Go, your faith has saved you."

Here are five texts that reveal the principle, texts that we can read and declare aloud to remind ourselves of them as often as possible.

These are legal texts that you can present as a lawyer would while praying to the Lord.

The Lord had them written for us in the Bible so that we can rely on them when we pray, so that we don't feel like we are asking for things He never intended to answer. In fact, it is the Lord Himself who makes us aware of the existence of these things so that we ask Him for them.

It is by this truth that God can, in all justice, bring down today on the earth the invisible powers of the Kingdom of God, those that have already healed and delivered you.

First text:

Isaiah 53:4 - Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.

But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds, we are healed.

It is done.

The punishment that brings us peace has fallen. It fell once and for all. And this punishment that fell on another gives us something. Thanks to Him who was struck, everyone has the legal right to receive shalom because it is the Hebrew word translated in our Bibles as 'peace.' However, shalom means more than peace like many Hebrew words that are rich in meaning and have extended significance. Shalom means:

Complete state, well-being, serenity, health, prosperity, bodily strength, peace, tranquility.

All of this is in the shalom that the Lord Jesus bought for us by dying on the Cross. As true as Jesus died, as true, you have a legal right to receive shalom, right now.

The punishment endured by the Lord Jesus had no other purpose. Through the death and wounds of Jesus, you are already healed. And this invisible truth descends and materializes in the physical world for anyone who prays, pleading before God with this clear truth before their eyes.

Second text:

John 19:30 - When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, "It is finished," and he bowed his head and gave up his spirit.

It is finished. These are Jesus' last words on the cross. There is nothing to add; that's what it means. No personal merit is needed to receive shalom. No human good deed can make us deserve any answered prayer. The punishment that fell is the only legal basis on which God's love and compassion rely to lavish His shalom on us, tight, shaken, and overflowing.

Since the day of His resurrection, Jesus, who is now very much alive, pours out on anyone who clings to this truth the incredible and beneficial consequence of this punishment. All the benefits of shalom, dearly bought on that terrible cross, are for us who grasp the immense scope of that cross.

We are entitled, entitled! to experience for ourselves and ask for others what is already 'in stock' in the invisible for everyone: forgiveness, healing, moral and physical well-being, peace, and prosperity. Everything is already there. All you had to do was look and understand what happened on the cross. The cross is the bloody testimony that you are already healed, blessed, and that our offenses, to all, have indeed been wiped away.

Therefore, legally, through Jesus, we now have peace with God. Understand what Christ was doing on that deadly cross: He reconciled us with this God whom we know so little about. Through this cross, God is no longer angry or punishing us for our offenses because He has already been angry and has already punished the One who offered Himself in love for us. There is no double penalty. There will be no double penalty. The punishment that gives us peace, that gives us shalom, fell on Jesus, and that opens all the doors to happiness.

Third text:

John 11:40 - Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believe you will see the glory of God?"

Faith is necessary, but there's no need for great faith. A mustard seed is enough. And the mustard seed is to have heard and known that Jesus went to the punishment in our place, solely so that we may receive forgiveness, healing, moral and physical well-being, and prosperity today.

If you have grasped it, you have the necessary mustard seed of faith. Don't try to bring anything more. You can now pray with confidence, relying on this. You just needed to know and understand that the 'legal' right to receive everything has been given to you by Jesus, who gave Himself for us all. So ask now, on this solid foundation!

Fourth text:

Psalms 103:2 - Praise the Lord, my soul,

    and forget not all his benefits—

 who forgives all your sins

    and heals all your diseases,

who redeems your life from the pit

    and crowns you with love and compassion,

There is not a disease that the Lord has not annihilated on the cross. Through His wounds, He has healed ALL diseases. You will not go down into the pit.

There is not a sin that the Lord cannot forgive. These are the benefits flowing from the cross. These benevolent laws triggered at the cross are still in effect even if the execution of the decree took place on Calvary two thousand years ago!

Fifth text:

1 Corinthians 1:18 - For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power of God.

The same power that raised Jesus on the third day is found in this truth of the punishment that gives us peace, and this power is now at work in you who believe.

There is enough power in this hidden truth and infinitely more.

The Son of God suffered, and, in all justice, we receive today peace, forgiveness, and healing from all our diseases. Now, all you have to do is keep the eyes of your thoughts fixed on the crucified Jesus. Through the cross, we are already forgiven, healed, and to those who have understood and accepted this truth and cling to it, the Lord says, ‘Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would’ or 'Go, your faith has healed you.'
