The Supreme Test

Mea e 'ai e tatau ma le aso
“Take now your son  and offer him  as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you” (Genesis 22:2).

I firstly, am in awe, and greatly humbled by the support our readers have shown in our requested need of prayers for our son, who is suffering from stage 4 Sarcoma cancer.  When I reflect upon our ministry, I sometimes feel like Abraham in that my time is so involved in sharing God's Word, that I am sacrificing time I should spend on my son.

But I believe in the goodness and promise's of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, who said, "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you."  (Matthew 6:33)

A person’s character determines how he interprets God’s will (see Psalm 18:25–26).  Abraham interpreted God’s command to mean that he had to kill his son, and he could only leave this traditional belief behind through the pain of this heart wrenching ordeal.

God could purify his faith in no other way.  If we obey what God says according to our sincere belief, God will break us from those traditional beliefs that misrepresent Him.
There are many such beliefs which must be removed—for example, that God removes a child because his mother loves him too much. That is the devil’s lie and a travesty on the true nature of God!

If the devil can hinder us from taking the supreme test and getting rid of our wrong traditional beliefs about God, he will do so.  But if we will stay true to God, God will take us through an ordeal that will serve to bring us into a better knowledge of Himself.

The great lesson to be learned from Abraham’s faith in God is that he was prepared to do anything for God, despite his love for his son.  He was there to obey God, no matter what contrary belief of his might be violated by his obedience.

Abraham was not devoted to his own convictions or else he would have slain Isaac and said that the voice of the angel was actually the voice of the devil.  That is the attitude of a fanatic.

If you will remain true to God, God will lead you directly through every barrier and right into the inner chamber of the knowledge of Himself.  But you must be willing to come to the point of giving up your own convictions and traditional beliefs.  Having stage 4 cancer in traditional or conventional belief is a walk down death row, which most people walk unknowingly.

I believe in the miracles of God and I believe in miracle healing's through the power of intercessory prayers, lifestyle changes and a good wholesome healthy non-animal fat diet.

God did not create our bodies to fall apart, but rather miraculously heal itself when injured.  There are simple principles of God's original diet intent for man for example that can build our immune system, but we have so neglected that we have instead eaten food's that feeds cancer and all other sickness.

He said in (Genesis 1:29)  "I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat."  A simple plant based diet that can heal our illnesses.   No chemotherapy, no radiation, no surgeries, and no amputations.

Like Abraham when face with the choices, don’t ask God to test you. Never declare as Peter did that you are willing to do anything, even “to go  both to prison and to death” (Luke 22:33). Abraham did not make any such statement—he simply remained true to God, and God purified his faith and saved his son.
