Cardiac Arrest Recovery: Reclaiming Your Jubilee of Health

Leave a reply

Recovering from a cardiac arrest is a journey that involves more than just the physical restoration of the heart; it is a deep, spiritual process of reclaiming the life that has been given back to you. In the aftermath, you may be dealing with symptoms like profound fatigue, shortness of breath, or a lingering sense of chest discomfort. There is often an emotional weight as well—a “soul-weariness” or a fear of the future. Yet, in this season of recovery, you are standing in a place of significant transition, much like the sounding of a trumpet that signals a brand-new beginning.

The Jubilee of Restoration

In ancient times, the “Year of Jubilee” was a season of liberty and restoration. If a person had lost their property, their health, or their freedom, the Jubilee was the time when everything was legally returned to its rightful owner. It was a year-long party because it marked the end of lack and the beginning of wholeness.

When you survive a cardiac event, you have entered your own personal season of Jubilee. You are not a “helpless victim” waiting for a number to come up. Instead, you are invited to “return to your possession”—which includes the possession of a strong, rhythmic heart and a clear, steady life. Restoration is not just about surviving; it is about the “Ultimate Triumph” of getting back every bit of strength and joy that was challenged.

Scripture 1: Galatians 3:13

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.”

The Earnest of Our Inheritance

Think of your current recovery as a “whopper engagement ring.” In many cultures, an engagement gift or a “token” is given as an earnest—a relatively small part of the total gift given now to prove that the rest is coming later. The fact that you are breathing today, even if you feel weak, is the “earnest” or the “firstfruits” of your total inheritance of health.

If you are feeling the “superfluous defects” of fatigue or physical limitation, do not look at them as permanent. God is the “Self-Existent One” who provides the sap and nourishment to the branch. As a branch, you don’t have the responsibility to produce the life; your only job is to receive it from the root. Allow the Holy Spirit, who is in you, to be the “Preserver” of your whole spirit, soul, and body. This life in you is a guarantee that more strength is on the way.

The Authority to Take Hold

There is a common tradition that says, “I guess it’s not the will of God for me to be well yet.” But if we truly believed it was God’s will for us to be sick, we wouldn’t spend a single dime at a doctor trying to get out of His will. We must be consistent. Jesus never told a seeker, “I won’t heal you.” Instead, He went about “doing good and healing all.”

Recovery requires a determination to “press through.” Like the man who lay on his bed and decided, “I believe I receive,” you must lay hold of your health by faith. This isn’t a passive waiting; it is putting on your “traveling boots.” Even if you haven’t “left the house” or felt like yourself in a long time, gird up your loins and get ready to move. Your heart is not meant to be a place of distress, but a “house of prayer” and a temple of strength.

Scripture 2: Mark 11:24

“Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.”

Strength for Service

The only proper basis for seeking health is so that we may have “strength for service.” When we desire our health for God’s glory, it changes our perspective. Instead of focusing on the clinical “prognosis,” we fix our eyes on the “Redemptive Names” of God. He is Jehovah-Rapha—the Lord who heals. This name is not “I Was,” but “I Am.” He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

During cardiac recovery, you might feel like your work or your daily chores separate you from peace. But when you realize that your work is simply “the branch bearing fruit,” the weariness disappears. You are linked to Jesus in a way that provides “sap” for every demand of the spirit and body. He is able to do “superabundantly” above all you could dare to ask or think. Even if the doctors have given you a list of things you “can’t” do, remember that God specializes in things people can’t explain.

Scripture 3: Psalm 103:2-3

“Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.”

Choosing the High Road

There are always two “ditches” to avoid: one where we pretend there is no challenge, and another where we are paralyzed by fear. The “high road” is recognizing that while symptoms are real, they must obey the authority of the Word. If you are experiencing “limbs swollen” or “blood pressure” issues, do not be discouraged. These are merely “thorns in the flesh”—distractions that attempt to “vex” you.

Proclaim your liberty today. Proclaim that your “trouble is gone.” God’s heart goes out to you just as it did to the multitudes who converged on Him in the solitary place. He didn’t chase them away, and He won’t chase you away. He is looking at you with compassion, ready to pour in the “healing balm” of His Word.

A New Experience of Life

As you read these words, let a “gift of healing” drop into your heart. It is a free gift, a special thing for your specific situation. You are an heir of the promise, a member of a “better covenant” established on “better promises.” The same power that raised Jesus from the dead is at work within your chest right now.

Do not be vague or thoughtless about your recovery. Firmly grasp what the will of the Lord is. His will is wholeness. His will is for you to “return to your family” and “return to your possession” of full, vibrant health. You are coming up and coming out of this season. Every day is a new experience, linking you closer to the source of life. Shine your light, tell the story of what God has done, and walk forward in the strength of the “Great I Am.”

Rheumatoid Arthritis and Healing Prayer

Leave a reply

The journey through physical challenge is often a path paved with questions, but it is also a landscape where the quiet strength of the spirit can flourish. When you are facing the daily reality of Rheumatoid arthritis—navigating the stiffness that greets you in the morning, the persistent swelling in your joints, and the fatigue that feels like a heavy weight—it is easy to feel as though your body is a territory under siege. Yet, there is a profound truth found in the consistent hearing of a promise.

Consider the simple, unwavering faith of a child. If a mother tells her little girl that she will receive a new dress next Saturday, that child does not wait until she sees the fabric to believe it is hers. Her faith is born the very moment she hears the word of her mother. She doesn’t need to understand the economics of the purchase or see the dress in the window; she simply rests in the reliability of the promise. In the same way, our confidence in restoration does not begin when the symptoms vanish; it begins when we settle our hearts on the declarations of the One who is the Father of mercies.

The Power of the Promise

Faith is not a feeling we manufacture to override our senses; it is the natural result of hearing truth until it becomes more real to us than our circumstances. For someone dealing with the chronic pain and inflammation of RA, the “natural” thing is to focus on the limitation. However, we are invited to a different perspective. We are told that our bodies are not just physical shells; they are temples, and the life that dwells within them is meant to be manifest even in our mortal flesh.

There is a restorative authority—what the Greeks called exousia—that stands above the “facts” of a medical report. This authority is backed by a mercy that is not a one-time event but a continuous, everlasting stream. To be “full of mercy” means that there is an abundance available for every area of lack, including the physical strength needed to move, to work, and to live with joy.

The Evidence of Redemption

When we look at the historical records of restoration, we see a consistent pattern: a Good Shepherd who does not desire his flock to be scattered or broken. Sickness is often described as a yoke or a burden, but there is an anointing—a specific divine enablements—designed to destroy those yokes. This is not a “someday” hope; it is a present-tense reality.

The scriptures provide a firm foundation for this expectation:

  • Exodus 23:25: “And ye shall serve the LORD your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.”
  • Psalm 107:20: “He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
  • Psalm 91:16: “With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.”

These are not mere words on a page; they are “imperishable seed.” When a seed is planted and watered, it is its nature to grow. By “watering” these promises—thinking on them, speaking them, and refusing to let them slip—you are creating an environment where restoration can take root.

The Gift of Healing and the Anointing

In the community of those who walk by faith, there is a beautiful provision known as the gift of healing. This is a specific manifestation of the Spirit where the inherent power of God—the dunamis—is released to mend, to stitch back together, and to make whole what has been distressed. This gift is a reminder that the heart of the Creator is always toward wholeness.

If you are struggling with the “wasting” feeling that sometimes accompanies long-term illness, or the “plagues” of persistent inflammation, remember that you have been redeemed from these things. Redemption means “to buy back.” You have been bought back from the authority of sickness. If a debt has been paid, the bill-collector has no legal right to knock on your door. Likewise, when you understand your redemption, you can stand your ground against the symptoms of RA, knowing they do not have a permanent right to your body.

Strengthening the Inner Man

A physical attack often waits for a moment of weakness, trying to overwhelm the mind and spirit. This is why it is vital to build a “strong spirit.” A strong spirit acts as a shield. It is developed by “hearing and hearing” the Word. You don’t get established by hearing a truth once; you get established by the constant pounding of truth against the spirit until the walls of doubt crumble.

Think of the shepherd boy David. He was not a giant-killer because of his physical stature; he was a giant-killer because he spent his time in the fields watering the seed of God’s Word within him. His attitude toward the promise made him wiser than his teachers and stronger than his enemies. You have that same opportunity. Even when your joints are restricted, your spirit is free to soar, to confess, and to “say so.”

Moving Forward in Confidence

If the Good Shepherd came so that you might have life “more abundantly,” then any area of “want” or “lack” in your health is an area where His provision is looking to manifest. Restoration is not just about the removal of pain; it is about being “satisfied with long life” and being “restored in strength.”

Do not be discouraged by what you see or feel today. Faith is believing that the answer is provided before it is felt. Like the little girl waiting for Saturday, you can rejoice in the promise now. The anointing that destroys yokes is in you and on you. It is a force that terrifies the darkness because it brings the light of life into the very cells of your body.

Keep your eyes on the report of the One who bears our sicknesses and carries our pains. Vocalize your redemption. Say, “I am strong in the Lord.” Let every word of promise be established in your heart, for He is faithful who promised, and He is doing a work of mending and making whole even now.

Prostate Cancer and Healing: Standing in the Authority of the Word

Leave a reply

A diagnosis of prostate cancer often brings with it a heavy cloud of uncertainty and physical challenge. You may be supporting someone who is currently navigating symptoms like frequent or difficult urination, a persistent sense of pressure, or deep discomfort in the lower back and hips. These physical markers can weigh heavily on a person’s spirit, but it is important to remember that a strong spirit will sustain a man through his infirmity.

Healing is not merely a historical event we read about; it is a current reality provided by the “I AM.” When God revealed His redemptive name as Jehovah-Rapha, He didn’t say “I Was the Lord who healed you.” He said, “I Am.” To believe that health is not for God’s people today is to attempt to change the very nature of the One who is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

The Authority of the Word

We see a profound example of how healing operates through the account of the Centurion. He was a man who understood authority because of his occupation; he knew that when a command is given by a superior, it must be obeyed. He recognized that Jesus held supreme authority over all things, including sickness. His faith was so robust that he realized Jesus didn’t even need to be physically present to effect a change. He simply needed the Word to be spoken.

For someone facing prostate cancer, the “word” of a clinical diagnosis can feel final. While we respect the work of doctors and the natural reports they provide, we must be careful not to be affected by any voice more than the voice of God. If we attend only to the natural reports, our spirits can become weak and drained. We need the nourishment of the Truth to remain stirred up. Faith is not a passive waiting; it is a firm grasping of the will of the Lord.

Scripture 1: Hebrews 13:8

“Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.”

Redemption from the Curse

It is vital to understand that sickness is part of the curse from which we have been redeemed. If Jesus went to such great lengths to hang on a Cross and become accursed to set us free, it cannot be His will for us to remain bound by it. He “tasted death for every man,” and that sacrifice was a perfect remedy for the whole person—spirit, soul, and body.

Just as a sinner must accept the promise of salvation as true before they feel the joy of being saved, a person seeking health must often accept the promise as true before the physical feelings align. Symptoms and challenges will attempt to wear you down, but you have been given authority. You can choose to get in the “middle of the high road,” recognizing that while challenges are real, you have been empowered to overcome them. We are not just heirs of a promise; we are in a better covenant established upon better promises.

Scripture 2: Galatians 3:13

“Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree.”

Removing the Barrier of Condemnation

Faith has a primary enemy: condemnation. It is the “confidence killer.” If a person feels unworthy, or if they are harboring guilt and shame from the past, it chokes off their ability to believe that God hears them. This is why we often see spiritual restoration and physical restoration going hand in hand. To have the confidence to act on the Word—to “get up and walk”—one must first be convinced that they are clean and right before God.

The blood of the Lamb is the only thing that can purge a guilty conscience. Once a person realizes they are “made right by the Blood,” the curse has no legal right to remain in their life. They can then look up with total confidence and say, “Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed.” This confidence allows the life of God—His peace, purity, and strength—to flow through the body as a preserver of health.

Scripture 3: Jeremiah 17:14

“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved: for thou art my praise.”

Acting on the Promise

Many people believe they are waiting on God to move, but often, God is waiting for us to act on what He has already said. When God provides a promise, it is like a seed. For that seed to do its work, it must be put into the “good ground” of a heart that gives it diligent attention. We must refuse “old wives’ fables” and the tradition that says God uses sickness to teach us lessons. You will not find that anywhere in the ministry of Jesus. He never turned anyone away, and He never said, “I won’t.”

If you are encouraging someone today, remind them that they are “loaded with benefits.” Even if the natural world says a condition is hopeless or has reached a final stage, we serve the “Self-Existent One.” He is the strength of our life. Restoration may be a process that happens over time, or it may be a “now you see it, now you don’t” miracle, but the end result is always the same: wholeness.

Let the trumpet of “Jubilee” sound in your heart. Reclaim what has been stolen. Whether through the laying on of hands or the simple, quiet confidence in the Word, God’s heart is to make people whole. Stand firm, be faithful to where you are stationed, and expect the power of the Spirit to manifest health in every cell of the body.
