Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits. Psalm 103:1-2.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
If you desire renewal of youth within you, never forget the Covenant benefits that belong to you because you have joined in Covenant with Me. You will find that the sum total of living in the flow of these benefits is renewal of youth. I have told you this quite clearly:
Bless the LORD, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget none of His benefits; He pardons all your iniquities, He heals all your diseases; He redeems your life from the pit, He surrounds you with lovingkindness and compassion; He satisfies your years with good things, your youth is renewed like the eagle. Psalm 103:1-5.
The crowning result of knowing and walking in the flow of your Covenant benefits—that is, that you have been forgiven, healed, redeemed from all the pits you fall in or are put in by others, surrounded with love and compassion, and having your days filled with good to ornament your life as with precious jewels—is that your youth is renewed like the eagle. In other words, your eyes are undimmed and your strength unabated. And you don’t just slowly plod along, you soar high above on eagle’s wings. You are on the fast track with endurance to finish your race, that is, the work I have given you to do so you may receive your full reward—all your benefits now and forever.
Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:32.
You yourselves have seen what I did to the Egyptians, and how I bore you on eagles’ wings, and brought you to Myself. Exodus 19:4.
And you see where you are headed as you ascend on eagle’s wings? High up where eagles build their nests. And with Me that high place is My secret place, your refuge and your fortress, right to My throne of grace where you receive mercy and find grace to fill all your needs with an abundance for every good work just when you need it. A fresh anointing and infilling of My Spirit to renew and restore.
I lift you on high, inaccessibly high, because you know My Name, My Covenant Name that only you who believe can call upon and be called by, and all the promises in My Name—the LORD your righteousness, the LORD your redeemer, the LORD your savior, the LORD your provider, the LORD your helper, the LORD your sanctifier, the LORD your deliverer, the LORD your refuge, the LORD your fortress, the LORD your strength, the LORD your stronghold, the LORD your Shepherd, the LORD is peace, and the LORD of Hosts—are YES to you when you believe in the Name above every other Name in which I fulfill all My Covenant Names in One Name—JESUS. He is your Salvation. Yeshuah.
All the Covenant benefits are YES to you in Jesus, you are forgiven, healed, delivered from your pits, surrounded with love and compassion, are filled with good things and goodness and you are a new creation—totally new but to be renewed in your soul and body you must also renew your mind to know your benefits and not forget them when the trial comes that tries to steal your benefits one by one if not all at once. DO NOT FORGET THEM WHEN THE TRIAL COMES. Satan will sift you like wheat, but if you stay standing only the precious will remain and you will come out shining, like gold from the furnace and silver refined seven times over.
In Psalm 103 there are five benefits listed, which is the number of grace, and that abundance of grace results in the renewal of your youth, which is number six in the list in Psalm 103. Six is the number of man, for I created you on the sixth day, and the result of the benefits is for your mortal bodies. But all of the benefits start first in your spirit and flow from your spirit to your soul and then to your body.
Even though these benefits are yours in Christ Jesus, it is your thought life that determines whether you will have these benefits manifest in your life. That is why I warn you not to FORGET any of them. If you forget they are yours and lose your confidence in a trial, you will not have peace and joy in your soul. But you only can go out of a trial with joy and be led forth only by peace.
The only way you can not break down your immune system and your body in an onslaught of attacks by the devil is by controlling your mind by renewing it to the truth of My care and benefits so that you are satisfied (full) to the point that you are not disturbed in your innermost being knowing that I am well able and willing to deliver you out of them all.
Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the LORD delivers him out of them all. Psalm 34:19.
For this reason I also suffer these things, but I am not ashamed; for I know whom I have believed and I am convinced that He is able to guard what I have entrusted to Him until that day. 2 Timothy 1:12.
The devil can only steal your benefits from you if you take his thoughts of worry, fear, and disquiet in the circumstances you are in.
I have learned how to be content (satisfied to the point where I am not disturbed or disquieted) in whatever state I am. Philippians 4:11.
But the just shall live by faith and if you draw back I have no pleasure in you because you will not take the benefit I have given you.
Now take a look at each benefit:
- I forgive ALL your sins. You therefore must refuse to let your mind be harassed by thoughts of self-condemnation, shame, guilt, and a future of no hope. You must speak to those thoughts and cast them down by proclaiming that you have repented to Me and are forgiven. That I remember them no more and that there is now no condemnation for you because you are in Christ who took all your sins away from you and took them into Himself and received your punishment. They are gone.
- I heal all your ills, diseases, and pains. Do not be trouble if an unclean spirit of infirmity tries to invade you and gives you symptoms and a bad diagnosis, answer that spirit with the truth of your benefit of healing by the passion and death of Jesus who bore those and they are no longer yours. And remind yourself of this Covenant benefit. DO NOT FORGET IT and start begging Me to heal you. It is part of your benefits already. Relax and trust in the LORD who heals you.
- I redeem your life from the pit. Do not fear the low points—the financial problems, depression, legal actions against you, people going after you, or whatever pit you got yourself into or another threw you into. Stop running and cowering in fear and stand. You have a redeemer and an advocate who is ever at your side. Call upon Me and declare that the LORD your Shepherd is with you and there is nothing you lack and that He is leading you out of the dark valley to the table of plenty and the abundance of My house with a fresh anointing and an overflowing cup.
- I surround you with love and compassion. Do not let thoughts of loneliness, abandonment, or the actions of men who reject or persecute you penetrate the love and compassion with which I surround you. Do not give the devil a entrance to the hedge of blessing I have around you. Speak to that invader and tell him of the love that I pour into your heart by the gift of My Holy Spirit in you who is your comforter and the one always at your side.
- I fill you with good things, I adorn your life with jewels. Be sure you stand on this and look through any trial to the joy of the reward when you obtain the promise that you won’t let go of. By faith and patience you will have the promise.
And we desire that each one of you show the same diligence so as to realize the full assurance of hope until the end, so that you will not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises. Hebrews 6:11-12.
Let go of wrong thinking, that is, worry, fear, condemnation, unforgiveness, doubt, bitterness, shame, be done with these tormentors which I did not give you and put your attention on your benefits. I did not give you a spirit of fear, but of power (My power in you), love (My love in you), and a sound mind. And the sound mind has to do with you renewing your mind to put your attention on My Word and off the words of the world, the flesh, and the devil. And that is up to you with the help of My grace and My Spirit in you and on you. But to control your thoughts you must make up your mind to do so. You have to resist those thoughts by answering them and then get your attention on the victory—on divine favor.
My Words are life to those who FIND them and health to all their flesh. Proverbs 4:22. You need to go on a treasure hunt with the Holy Spirit and find your answers in My Word and then life will rush into you instead of death. When you get My Word in a dark situation, My Word brings the light. It will wake the dawn.
We have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts. 2 Peter 1:19.
What your mind is on is what you are attending to and what you are attending to is what you are embracing and holding onto. You cannot receive healing if you keep focusing on the illness and upon the symptoms in your body. Why? Because your body is not the source of your healing. I sent My Word to heal you and deliver you from your destructions (pits). And I am My Word.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John 1:1.
Put your attention on the source that will solve your problems, not on the problem. If you keep your attention constantly on your body, your feelings, the threats, the dreaded outcomes, or any other source of the problem then your attention is on the wrong source for deliverance, it is on the source of the problem and that will increase the problem.
I heal and administer benefits in you by My Spirit pouring the benefits into your spirit.
The spirit of man is the lamp of the LORD, searching all the innermost parts of his being. Proverbs 20:27.
My power in your spirit then flows out to your soul and then to your body. My life is in you when you have taken Jesus as Lord, flowing into you as a branch on the vine, and it is by abiding in My Word that you attach and My life in you is activated and flows. It then springs up in you in a fountain leaping to eternal life filled with healing and all the benefits flowing from the Kingdom to activate in your mortal body. The Holy Spirit quickens your mortal body from within.
If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. Romans 8:11.
I know that opposition and trials are unpleasant and you would rather be without them, but Jesus told you that you would have trials in this life, but to take courage and cheer up because He overcame the world. And now He lives in you, thus, greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. So stir up the overcomer in you, fan that gift into flame by putting your attention on My Word of victory.
And when do you learn how to control your mind? Only one way, by experiencing opposing thoughts, which you will as long as the devil is still roaming the earth, and his fury is blazing because he knows his time is now short. There is nothing to stand against, speak to, and cast down until the time of testing comes. Peter was sifted like wheat and fell into the trap and denied Jesus, but he learned from that how to control his mind and never fell again. And he told you to be alert to the devil’s tactics and resist him.
Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:2-3.
It is in weakness that power reaches perfection. My grace is sufficient for you to overcome anything that comes against you. In a trial you will learn how to think, you can practice staying attentive to My Word and coming through to the victory in joy and peace.
All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness. Hebrews 12:11.
When Joshua conquered the Promised Land, a some of the enemy nations were left. Why? I did this only to teach warfare to the descendants of the Israelites who had not had previous battle experience. Judges 3:2.
Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep Your word. Psalm 119:67.
It is good for me that I was afflicted, that I may learn Your statutes. Psalm 119:71.
I am exceedingly afflicted; revive me, O LORD, according to Your word. Psalm 119:107.
It takes practice to go to My Word instead of your feelings. But you will learn that if you cast your care on Me and apply My Word the solution will come. As you attend to My Word you will get the answer. Those that wait on Me will soar with eagle’s wings.
Your mind has to be steadfast on My Words and praise in your mouth. Do not forget any of My benefits. Sing about them.
My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my soul. Awake, harp and lyre; I will awaken the dawn! Psalm 108:1-2 . . . For deliverance by man is in vain. Through God we will do valiantly, and it is He who shall tread down our adversaries. Psalm 108:12-13.
I love you. Never let go of the Word of life. Hang on with all your might for the one who clings to Me will triumph. Established in righteousness you will be far from oppression for you will not fear; and from terror, for it will not come near you. If anyone fiercely assails you it will not be from Me. Whoever assails you will fall because of you. Isaiah 54:14-15. I have put My Words in YOUR mouth and covered you with the shadow of My hand. Open wide your mouth and put My Words to work and watch the giants fall as we knock down every wall.
