The Purpose of Holy Week is To Remember The Ultimate Sacrifice Jesus Paid For Your Sins by Giving unto Him your ultimate service

Share

Even after Jesus left this earth, healing our thoughts remained a crucial ministry of the Holy Spirit through his disciples. Does this mean we can say, “Cancer, be gone,” and assume we are healed? No, it doesn't. Nor does it mean we can indiscriminately stop taking our prescribed medications. We can, however, become a part of the healing process by thinking about, “... whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.” (Philippians 4:8) We can declare God’s word over our lives.

I was at home last week when I received one of the most incredible testimonies from a ROHO subscriber, who has recently started a new position at work and her testimony truly blessed me and encouraged me, I pray that it blesses you as well.

"ROHO ! I pray that this message finds you well, in the highest of spirits and best of health. I wanted to take this time and give my testimony. I have been following your ministry for sometime now and I try to read the daily inspiration as soon as they come out.I recently started a new job a few months ago. It was a salary increase, the flexibility is awesome and I feel that I am working in my purpose. I’m still in training and I have been a little worried that I am not grasping things as quickly as I would like to. But, I am faithful and standing on God’s word that he will give me wisdom and understanding. I read today’s message about open doors, favor and elevation. I received that message whole heartedly. I read the 12 declarations of portion and healing out loud. Well, a few hours later, I received an email from HR that my pay was being increased, due to a re-review of my position. I’m still shouting! This is the highest paying job that I’ve ever had, with less than 90 days on the job, while still in training, I received an unsolicited increase. God is good! Thank you for speaking life over my life. God bless you and this ministry!"

Scripture for Meditation

Philippians 4:8 — "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." (KJV) Beloved, your mind is a garden—what you plant there grows and bears fruit in your body and spirit. When sickness whispers lies of limitation, speak truth back to it through the Word of God.

3 John 1:2 — "Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." (KJV) This is God's deepest desire for you, family—wholeness that flows from a prosperous soul. When your spirit is rooted in Christ's victory, your body and mind align with that healing power.

Proverbs 23:7 — "For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." (KJV) The thoughts you entertain become the life you live. Guard your meditation as fiercely as you would guard your medication, for both are instruments of restoration.

Walking It Out

First: Today, identify one area where fear or negative thinking has taken root—whether it's doubt about your health, your abilities, or God's promises. Write it down. Then write the opposite truth from Scripture beside it, and read that truth aloud three times before the sun sets.

Second: Follow the witness of that ROHO subscriber—choose one scriptural affirmation about wisdom, strength, or healing and declare it over yourself each morning this week. Speak it as if Jesus Himself is speaking it into your bones. "I am strong in the Lord. I am growing in understanding. I am walking in divine health."

Third: This Holy Week, make your ultimate service an act of mental stewardship. Every time you catch yourself thinking on what is false, anxious, or defeating, pause and redirect to what is lovely, true, and excellent. That disciplined thought-life is your living sacrifice to the God who paid everything for you.

A Prayer for You

Father God, I come before You this Holy Week with a grateful heart, remembering that Jesus bore my sickness and my sin on that cross. I surrender my thought-life to You—every fear, every doubt, every discouraging whisper. Holy Spirit, heal my mind first, for I know that out of the abundance of a healed heart, my whole body will move into wholeness. I choose today to think on what is true, noble, and pure, and I declare that as my mind is renewed, so too shall my strength be renewed. Help me to stand on Your Word with the same faith as that sister in ROHO, trusting that You are faithful even when progress seems slow. In Jesus' name, Amen.
