It's Time to Get That Swine Flu Shot

I feel led by the Spirit of God to speak about this potential world wide swine flu epidemic. The reason for this is because the media has enlarged this problem to a Pandemic already. From the first day they reported it, fear has gripped this world and now there is a frenzy out there concerning the swine flu.

My wife and I experienced this once before in 1976. We were living in Westland , Michigan and our first child was 4 years old. The media once again informed us about a swine flu outbreak in New Jersey and in a short period of time, the government decided that it would be a good idea if everyone got a swine flu shot for protection. Well, I chose not to do it, not because I was a big man of faith, I didn't even know the Lord Jesus then. I just didn't want to stand in line for hours. I saw thousands of people lined up at the local Shopping Mall getting shots. After the swine flu terror was over with, it was determined that more people died from the shots than from the flu.

Now don't get me wrong. I'm not against doctors, medicine, and shots. But what the believing Christian must know is don't ever do anything that is motivated by fear. Fear will lead you where God never intended you to go. We all may be faced with this same decision again depending on how bad the flu epidemic becomes. Men will do their best to stop it, but men doing something without God is doomed for failure. I've not heard one news cast or one person say anything about seeking God and His wisdom on what to do with this crisis, but instead I hear panic and fear everywhere.

That leads me to what you and I should be doing right now. My wife and I sat down before the Lord this morning and we got our swine flu shots from Him. We have exercised our faith in God and His Word and are completely inoculated by the blood of Jesus. Just as the Israelites were instructed by God to paint the door posts of their homes with the blood of the sacrificial lamb so that the angel of death would pass over them, that is exactly what my wife and I did this morning. We plead the blood of Jesus over our house (the one with a roof over it) and then we plead the blood of Jesus over our physical bodies (the house where our spirits live) and we full well expect that spirit of infirmity to pass over both houses.

Prov 4: 20-22 says that the Word of God is life unto those that find it it and health (or medicine) to all their flesh. God has medicine for the believer, it's His Word. But just like those pills in the bottle, they won't do the person any good if he doesn't take the pill out of the bottle and consume it the way the doctor ordered it. God's medicine is just the same. If you just leave God's word sitting on the table between those two leather covers and never look at it and consume it into your heart (your spirit man), it will do nothing for you at all and you'll most likely get sick and blame God for it or at the least you'll accuse God of putting that sickness on you and that He is teaching you something. (you know, that almost pains me to write that junk).

You've got to take God's word and put it into your heart. And just like the medicine in the bottle, you've got to consume it as prescribed and this is God's prescription, "you shall meditate on My word day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous and then you will have good success." (Josh 1:8). Now that is God's way of prospering, spirit, soul, and body. If you take God's medication any other way, you'll not get enough to stand against the wiles (the different ways) of the devil.

So you receive your swine flu shot by receiving God's word through faith. Eph 1:19 says that God extends His power towards us when we believe Him and Eph 3:20 says God is able to do exceedingly, abundantly above all that we can ask or think ACCORDING TO THE POWER THAT WORKS IN US, or according to whatever we can believe, God's power will be there to bring it to pass. Jesus said, according to your faith, be it done unto you. All things are possible to him that believes.

So if coming to God to get your swine fly shot sounds foolish to you, then you must understand that you have not been chewing on the meat of the word, but you are still taking the milk instead. For the Holy Spirit said in 1 Cor 1:18, for the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved (that is an ongoing process, not a one time act. I need healing and deliverance on a continuous basis) it is the power of God (for whatever we need, and in this case, I need a swine flu shot). So what is the message of the cross speaking to you. That your sins are forgiven and heaven is your home. That's great and wonderful and thank God for it, but the message of the cross has much more to say about how we can live on this earth before we get to heaven. This is the message you need now, "that Jesus bore your sicknesses and diseases and that you have been redeemed from the curse of the law", but just like that first group of Israelites that stood before the Promise Land, they still had to go in and possess it, they had to kick the giants out, and you'll have to kick the devil off of your promises from God as well. But God said you could, so go and do it.

Now are you ready for your Swine Flu shot. Then step right up, there is no waiting or line. To receive God's shot, you must receive His word by faith and believe Him.

Here is the medicine and you can't overdose on it. Take as much as you can.

1. Psalm 18:1-3
2. Prov 18:10
3. Ps 91 This is your protective covering. Especially look at verses 9-10
4. Ex 15:26
5. Ex 23:25
6. Deut 7:14-15

Now, if you take the above scriptures and believe that is God speaking directly to you and receive the truth of that word, than that truth will come to pass in your life. You will be inoculated from this spirit of infirmity. However, after doing the above and the devil still shows up on your front door step with the symptoms of the swine flu, resist him and kick him off your property by just quoting this word to him and refusing to accept those symptoms. Don't buy the lie, hold onto the Truth. This shot is more potent than anything man will ever come up with.

Now you need to take this good news out there and share it with others that need a swine flu shot. Be Blessed and stand strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

Hello,

I happened upon your post from a Google Alert I set on the phrase, "Plead the blood". Many of the readers of my blog come there from searches on that topic. I thought you might be interested in what God showed me about pleading the blood. I wrote about it in January 2006 and you can find it at: http://roadrevelations.org/?m=200601, scroll down near the bottom.
Be blessed!

T, Very good insight, just what the world needs at this time. Focusing on the word instead of what is going on in the world and the fear it generates. Thx, L
