Lesson 1 Foundational Insights Verses	Pastor John’s Be In Health comments
¹⁹This day I call heaven and earth as witnesses against you that I h= ave set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so = that you and your children may live ²⁰and that you may love the Lo= rd your God, listen to his voice, and hold fast to him. For the Lord is your life, and he will = give you many years in the land he swore to give to your fathers, Abraham, Isa= ac and Jacob. (Deuteronomy 30:19-20 NIV)	The bold words show the premise for both disease and healing. We have a choice as to which way= we wish to live. We can “love, listen, and hold fast to the Lord our GodR= 21; go on to sanctification and maturity and be in health or turn away and be= in disease. (cf. Deut. 28:15ff= . for full list of curses). Some argue that disease is a “blessing”= brings us closer to God but even these usually seek healing from physicians etc. negating the idea of a blessing.
²Like a fluttering sparrow or a darting swallow, an undeserved curse does not come to rest (alight, land) (Proverbs 26:2 NIV)	sinful beliefs and attitudes give the d= evil a “legal right” to access our being curses (e.g., fear, anxie= ty, disease). In other words, a= deserved curse can come to rest.
⁶My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. “Because you have rejected knowledge,= I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your G= od, I also will ignore your children. (Hosea 4:6 NIV)	Curses can still come even if we’re nice, read our Bible, pray for healing, etc., if we remain ignorant of how to move in Word to discern our enemy’s tactics and strategies against our life.<= /p>
¹³Therefore my people will go into exile for lack of understanding; their men of rank will die of hunger and their masses will be parched with thirst. ¹⁴Therefore the grave enlarges its appetite and opens its mouth without limit; into it will descend their nobles and masses with all their brawle= rs and revelers. (Isaiah 5:13-14 NIV)	Same as above regardless of rank: whether “nobles and masses with all their brawlers and revelers.”=
²²But this is a people robbed and plundered; All of them are sna= red in holes, And they are hidden in prison houses; They are for prey, and no= one delivers; For plunder, and no one says, “Restore!” (Isaiah 42:22= NKJV)	More commentary on the high level of vulnerability of ignorant people. The des= ire of the healing and wholeness ministry is to cry out, “Restore!̶= 1;
²³Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, ²⁴leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. (Matthew 5:23= -24 NKJV)	I think this has to do with a sense of urgency toward being reconciled with God, self, and others.
³⁷Jesus replied: “ ‘Love the Lor= d your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.= 217; (Matthew 22:3= 7 NIV)	The main connection for healing and wholeness is the Love of God and our love= for God. Remember “we love because he first loved us!” We don’t work up this love we let= God work it in. (cf. 1 John 4:19; Phil 2:13)
²⁰In the morning, as they went along, they saw the fig tree withered fr= om the roots. ²¹Peter remembered and said to Jesus, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree = you cursed has withered!” ²²“Have faith in God,” Jesus answered. ^{<= span style=3D'font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>23“I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘= Go, throw yourself into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him. ^{24Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. ²⁵And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forg= ive him, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.” (Mark 11:20-2= 6 NIV)}}	Interestingly enough, Jesus “cursed” a tree. It had failed to bear fruit. <= o:p> Jesus then teaches that change comes through faith and words.= Faith prayer is a means of exercising words of faith. A clean heart of forgiveness is essential in a a= ll words and works of faith.
²⁶Men will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the wor= ld, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. (Luke 21:26 NIV)	Fear plays a large part in physical responses.
⁷I became a servant of this gospel by the gift of God’s grace gi= ven me through the working of his power. ⁸Although I am less than the least of all God’s people, this gra= ce was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ= , ⁹= and to make plain to everyone the administration of this mystery, whi= ch for ages past was kept hidden in God, who created all things. ^{10His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisd= om of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms, ¹¹according to his eternal purpose which he accomplished in Christ Jesus our Lord. ¹²In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence. ¹³I ask you, therefore, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings = for you, which are your glory. ¹⁴For this reason I kneel before the Father, ^{<= span style=3D'font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>15}}from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. ^{16I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with = power through his Spirit in your inner being, ^{<= span style=3D'font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>17}}so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. = And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, ^{18may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, ^{<= span style=3D'font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype"'>19}}and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you = may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.= ^{20Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more t= han all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,<= /span> ^{21to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. (Ephesians 3:7-21 NIV)}}	The church (literally: “the called out ones” the people in assembly and in relationship) is the place where “the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authori= ties in the heavenly realms.” This describes the church as a center of spiritual power not an weak, ineffective, irrelevant religious social cl= ub. This is a prayer for a church that is powerful Spirit-filled, Christ-Centered, faith-filled love rooted and established knowledgeable, understanding, wise, mature and filled with the fullness of God! Who is very abl= e to do this as we move in this, his word of faith and tru= th.
¹¹It was he who gave some to be apostles, some to be prophets= , some to be evangelists, and some to be pastors and teach= ers, ^{12to prepare God’s people for works of service, so = that the body of Christ may be built up (Ephesians 4:11-12 NIV)}	This is the five-fold ministry of leadership that the Lord is using to prepare his people the church to do good works of ministry and build up the whole church, Christ’s body.
What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don̵= 7;t they come from your desires that battle within you? (James 4:1 NI= V)	The battle is within each of us.<= /p>
¹⁰If we claim we have not sinned, we make him out to be a liar and his = word has no place in our lives. (1 John 1:10 NIV)	We are responsible to recognize our own issues of sin and rebellion. Failing to do this is a sin in i= tself against God’s stated word.
