Doctrina de los Ministerios de Water of Life (Agua de Vida)

7 Considera lo que digo, y el Señor te dé entendimiento en todo. 2 Timoteo 2:7

16 Jesús les respondió y dijo: —Mi doctrina no es mía, sino de aquel que me envió. 17 El que quiera hacer la voluntad de Dios, conocerá si la doctrina es de Dios o si yo hablo por mi propia cuenta. Juan 7:16,17

H. Él LLEVO NUESTRAS ENFERMEDADES Y DOLORES

Sanando el cuerpo físico y facultades mentales (el sistema nervioso central), son dolores y enfermedades, que fueron pagadas por medio de las llagas que Jesús llevó durante el azote y que cargó nuestras enfermedades y dolores en la cruz. Nuestra sanación fue lograda cuando Jesús fue sanado en la resurrección. Esta sanidad puede ser ministrada a través de la oración, poniendo las manos, con la unción de aceite o solamente hablando la palabra.

Isaías 53
4 Ciertamente llevó él nuestras enfermedades y sufrió nuestros dolores, ¡pero nosotros lo tuvimos por azotado, como herido y afligido por Dios!
5 Mas él fue herido por nuestras rebeliones, molido por nuestros pecados. Por darnos la paz, cayó sobre él el castigo, y por sus llagas fuimos nosotros curados.

Isaías 50

6 Di mi cuerpo a los heridores y mis mejillas a los que me mesaban la barba; no aparté mi rostro de injurias y de esputos.
7 Porque Jehová, el Señor, me ayuda, no me avergoncé; por eso he puesto mi rostro como un pedernal, y sé que no seré avergonzado.

Mateo 8

17 para que se cumpliera lo dicho por el profeta Isaías: «Él mismo tomó nuestras enfermedades y llevó nuestras dolencias.»

Marcos 16

18 tomarán serpientes en las manos y, aunque beban cosa mortífera, no les hará daño; sobre los enfermos pondrán sus manos, y sanarán.

1 Pedro 2

24 Él mismo llevó nuestros pecados en su cuerpo sobre el madero, para que nosotros, estando muertos a los pecados, vivamos a la justicia. ¡Por su herida habéis sido sanados!

Santiago 5

14 ¿Está alguno enfermo entre vosotros? Llame a los ancianos de la iglesia para que oren por él, ungiéndolo con aceite en el nombre del Señor.

15 Y la oración de fe salvará al enfermo, y el Señor lo levantará; y si ha cometido pecados, le serán perdonados.

16 Confesaos vuestras ofensas unos a otros y orad unos por otros, para que seáis sanados. La oración eficaz del justo puede mucho

Mateo 8

8 Respondió el centurión y dijo: —Señor, no soy digno de que entres bajo mi techo; solamente di la palabra y mi criado sanará,

9 pues también yo soy hombre bajo autoridad y tengo soldados bajo mis órdenes, y digo a éste: “Ve”, y va; y al otro: “Ven”, y viene; y a mi siervo: “Haz esto”, y lo hace.

10 Al oírlo Jesús, se maravilló y dijo a los que lo seguían: —De cierto os digo que ni aun en Israel he hallado tanta fe.

11 Os digo que vendrán muchos del oriente y del occidente, y se sentarán con Abraham, Isaac y Jacob en el reino de los cielos;

12 pero los hijos del reino serán echados a las tinieblas de afuera; allí será el lloro y el crujir de dientes.

13 Entonces Jesús dijo al centurión: —Vete, y como creíste te sea hecho. Y su criado quedó sano en aquella misma hora.

I. PROSPERITY

La provisión para la prosperidad fue hecha en la cruz, Jesús se hizo pobre para que seamos ricos, Él recibió el castigo de nuestra paz que contiene prosperidad y Él vino a ser maldito por nosotros, que incluye la maldición de pobreza. Pero la prosperidad también depende de la obediencia a Dios con la entrega de nuestro dinero

Isaías 53

5 Mas él fue herido por nuestras rebeliones, molido por nuestros pecados. Por darnos la paz, cayó sobre él el castigo, y por sus llagas fuimos nosotros curados.

Gálatas 3

13 Cristo nos redimió de la maldición de la Ley, haciéndose maldición por nosotros (pues está escrito: «Maldito todo el que es colgado en un madero»),

2 Corintios 8

1 Asimismo, hermanos, os hacemos saber la gracia de Dios que se ha dado a las iglesias de Macedonia,

2 porque, en las grandes tribulaciones con que han sido probadas, la abundancia de su gozo y su profunda pobreza abundaron en riquezas de su generosidad.

3 Doy testimonio de que con agrado han dado conforme a sus fuerzas, y aun más allá de sus fuerzas,

4 pidiéndonos con muchos ruegos que les concediéramos el privilegio de participar en este servicio para los santos.

5 Y no como lo esperábamos, sino que a sí mismos se dieron primeramente al Señor y luego a nosotros, por la voluntad de Dios;

6 de manera que exhortamos a Tito, para que tal como comenzó antes, asimismo acabe también entre vosotros esta obra de gracia.

7 Por tanto, como en todo abundáis, en fe, en palabra, en conocimiento, en toda solicitud y en vuestro amor por nosotros, abundad también en esta gracia.

8 No hablo como quien manda, sino para poner a prueba, por medio de la diligencia de otros, también la sinceridad del amor vuestro.

9 Ya conocéis la gracia de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, que por amor a vosotros se hizo pobre siendo rico, para que vosotros con su pobreza fuerais enriquecidos.

10 En esto doy mi consejo, porque esto os conviene a vosotros, que comenzasteis antes, no sólo a hacerlo, sino también a quererlo, desde el año pasado.

11 Ahora, pues, llevad también a cabo el hacerlo, para que así como estuvisteis prontos a querer, también lo estéis a cumplir conforme a lo que tengáis,

12 porque si primero está la voluntad dispuesta, será aceptado según lo que uno tiene, no según lo que no tiene.

13 No digo esto para que haya para otros holgura y para vosotros escasez,

14 sino para que en este momento, con igualdad, la abundancia vuestra supla la escasez de ellos, para que también la abundancia de ellos supla la necesidad vuestra, para que haya igualdad,

15 como está escrito: «El que recogió mucho no tuvo más y el que poco, no tuvo menos.»

Lucas 6

38 Dad y se os dará; medida buena, apretada, remecida y rebosando darán en vuestro regazo, porque con la misma medida con que medís, os volverán a medir.»

Gálatas 6

6 El que es enseñado en la palabra haga partícipe de toda cosa buena al que lo instruye.

7 No os engañéis; Dios no puede ser burlado, pues todo lo que el hombre siembre, eso también segará,

8 porque el que siembra para su carne, de la carne segará corrupción; pero el que siembra para el Espíritu, del Espíritu segará vida eterna.

Hechos 4

34 Así que no había entre ellos ningún necesitado, porque todos los que poseían heredades o casas, las vendían, y traían el producto de lo vendido

35 y lo ponían a los pies de los apóstoles; y se repartía a cada uno según su necesidad.

H. HE CARRIED OUR SICKNESS AND PAIN

Healing of the physical body and mental faculties (the central nervous system), its pains and sicknesses, was paid for through the stripes that Jesus took during the scourging and the carrying of our sicknesses and pains on the cross. Our healing was accomplished when Jesus was healed in the resurrection. This healing can be ministered by prayer, laying on of hands, anointing with oil or just speaking the word.

Isaiah 53

4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

Isaiah 50

6 I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting.

7 For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

Matthew 8

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

Mark 16

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

1 Peter 2

24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.

James 5

14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:

15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Matthew 8

8 The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.

9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.

11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.

12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

13 And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

I. PROSPERITY

Provision for prosperity was made on the cross, Jesus became poor that we may be rich, he received the chastisement of our peace which contains prosperity, and he became a curse for us, which includes the curse of poverty. But prosperity also hinges on obedience to God with the giving of our money.

Isaiah 53

5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

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:

2 Corinthians 8

1 Moreover, brethren, we do you to wit of the grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia;

2 How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

3 For to their power, I bear record, yea, and beyond their power they were willing of themselves;

4 Praying us with much intreaty that we would receive the gift, and take upon us the fellowship of the ministering to the saints.

5 And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God.

6 Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also.

7 Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

8 I speak not by commandment, but by occasion of the forwardness of others, and to prove the sincerity of your love.

9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

10 And herein I give my advice: for this is expedient for you, who have begun before, not only to do, but also to be forward a year ago.

11 Now therefore perform the doing of it; that as there was a readiness to will, so there may be a performance also out of that which ye have.

12 For if there be first a willing mind, it is accepted according to that a man hath, and not according to that he hath not.

13 For I mean not that other men be eased, and ye burdened:

14 But by an equality, that now at this time your abundance may be a supply for their want, that their abundance also may be a supply for your want: that there may be equality:

15 As it is written, He that had gathered much had nothing over; and he that had gathered little had no lack.

Luke 6

38 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

Galatians 6

6 Let him that is taught in the word communicate unto him that teacheth in all good things.

7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

8 For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

Acts 4

34 Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

35 And laid them down at the apostles' feet: and distribution was made unto every man according as he had need.

Ceea Ce-i Învățăm Pe Alții și Ceea Ce Facem

Doctrina Ministerelor Apei Vieții

7 Înţelege ce-ţi spun; Domnul îţi va da pricepere în toate lucrurile.

2 Timotei 2:7

16 Isus le-a răspuns: „Învăţătura Mea nu este a Mea, ci a Celui ce M-a trimis pe Mine. 17 Dacă vrea cineva să facă voia Lui, va ajunge să cunoască dacă învăţătura este de la Dumnezeu sau dacă Eu vorbesc de la Mine. Ioan 7:16,17

H. EL A LUAT ASUPRA SA PĂCATELE ȘI SUFERINȚA NOASTRĂ

Tămăduirea corpului fizic și a facultăților mentale (sistemul nervos central), a durerilor și bolilor sale, a fost plătită prin rănile pe care Isus le-a căpătat în timpul biciuirii și purtarea bolilor și a suferințelor noastre pe cruce. Vindecarea noastră s-a împlinit atunci când Isus a fost tămăduit prin înviere. Această tămăduire poate fi slujită prin rugăciune, așezarea mâinilor, ungerea cu ulei sau pur și simplu prin rostirea cuvântului.

Isaia 53

4 Totuşi El suferinţele noastre le-a purtat şi durerile noastre le-a luat asupra Lui, şi noi am crezut că este pedepsit, lovit de Dumnezeu şi smerit.

5 Dar El era străpuns pentru păcatele noastre, zdrobit pentru fărădelegile noastre. Pedeapsa care ne dă pacea a căzut peste El, şi prin rănile Lui suntem tămăduiţi.

Isaia 50

6 Mi-am dat spatele înaintea celor ce Mă loveau şi obrajii înaintea celor ce-Mi smulgeau barba; nu Mi-am ascuns faţa de ocări şi de scuipări.

7 Dar Domnul Dumnezeu M-a ajutat, de aceea nu M-am ruşinat, de aceea Mi-am făcut faţa ca o cremene, ştiind că nu voi fi dat de ruşin

Matei 8

17 ca să se împlinească ce fusese vestit prin prorocul Isaia, care zice: „El a luat asupra Lui neputinţele noastre şi a purtat bolile noastre.”

Marcu 16

18 vor lua în mână şerpi , dacă vor bea ceva de moarte, nu-i va vătăma, îşi vor pune mâinile peste bolnavi, şi bolnavii se vor însănătoşi.”

1 Petru 2

24 El a purtat păcatele noastre în trupul Său pe lemn, pentru ca noi, fiind morţi faţă de păcate, să trăim pentru neprihănire; prin† rănile Lui aţi fost vindecaţi.

Iacov 5

14 Este vreunul printre voi bolnav? Să cheme pe prezbiterii1 Bisericii şi să se roage pentru el, după ce-l vor unge cu untdelemn în Numele Domnului.

15 Rugăciunea făcută cu credinţă va mântui pe cel bolnav şi Domnul îl va însănătoşi şi, dacă a făcut păcate, îi vor fi iertate.

16 Mărturisiţi-vă unii altora păcatele şi rugaţi-vă unii pentru alţii, ca să fiţi vindecaţi. Mare putere are rugăciunea fierbinte a celui neprihănit.

Matei 8

8 „Doamne”, a răspuns sutaşul, „nu sunt vrednic să intri sub acoperământul meu, ci zi numai un cuvânt, şi robul meu va fi tămăduit.

9 Căci şi eu sunt om sub stăpânire; am sub mine ostaşi şi zic unuia: ‘Du-te!’ şi se duce; altuia: ‘Vino!’ şi vine; şi robului meu: ‘Fă cutare lucru!’ şi-l face.”

10 Când a auzit Isus aceste vorbe, S-a mirat şi a zis celor ce veneau după El: „Adevărat vă spun că nici în Israel n-am găsit o credinţă aşa de mare.

11 Dar vă spun că vor veni mulţi de la răsărit şi de la apus şi vor sta la masă cu Avraam, Isaac şi Iacov în Împărăţia cerurilor.

12 Iar fiii Împărăţiei vor fi aruncaţi în întunericul de afară, unde vor fi plânsul şi scrâşnirea dinţilor.”

13 Apoi a zis sutaşului: „Du-te şi facă-ţi-se după credinţa ta.” Şi robul lui s-a tămăduit chiar în ceasul acela.

I. PROPĂȘIREA

Pregătirea pentru propășire a fost făcută pe cruce, Isus S-a făcut sărac pentru ca noi să putem fi bogați, El a primit pedeapsa ce ne dă pacea, care cuprinde propășirea, și S-a făcut blestem pentru noi, ceea ce include blestemul sărăciei. Însă propășirea ține și de ascultarea de Dumnezeu prin darea banilor noștri.

Isaia 5

5 Dar El era străpuns pentru păcatele noastre, zdrobit pentru fărădelegile noastre. Pedeapsa care ne dă pacea a căzut peste El, şi prin rănile Lui suntem tămăduiţi.

Galateni 3

13 Hristos ne-a răscumpărat din blestemul Legii, făcându-Se blestem pentru noi, fiindcă este scris: „Blestemat e oricine este atârnat pe lemn”,

2 Corinteni 8

1 Fraţilor, voim să vă aducem la cunoştinţă harul pe care l-a dat Dumnezeu în Bisericile Macedoniei.

2 În mijlocul multelor necazuri prin care au trecut, bucuria lor peste măsură de mare şi sărăcia lor lucie au dat naştere la un belşug de dărnicie din partea lor.

3 Vă mărturisesc că au dat de bunăvoie, după puterea lor şi chiar peste puterile lor.

4 Şi ne-au rugat cu mari stăruinţe pentru harul şi părtăşia la această strângere de ajutoare pentru sfinţi.

5 Şi au făcut aceasta nu numai cum nădăjduisem, dar s-au dat mai întâi pe ei înşişi Domnului şi apoi nouă, prin voia lui Dumnezeu.

6 Noi dar am rugat pe Tit să isprăvească această strângere de ajutoare pe care o începuse.

7 După cum sporiţi în* toate lucrurile: în credinţă, în cuvânt, în cunoştinţă, în orice râvnă şi în dragostea voastră pentru noi, căutaţi să sporiţi şi în această binefacere.

8 Nu spun lucrul acesta ca să vă dau o poruncă, ci pentru râvna altora şi ca să pun la încercare curăţia dragostei voastre.

9 Căci cunoaşteţi harul Domnului nostru Isus Hristos. El, măcar că era bogat, S-a făcut sărac pentru voi, pentru ca, prin sărăcia Lui, voi să vă îmbogăţiţi.

10 În această privinţă vă dau un sfat. Şi sfatul acesta vă este de folos vouă, care, de acum un an, cei dintâi aţi început nu numai să faceţi, ci să şi voiţi.

11 Isprăviţi dar acum de făcut, pentru ca, după graba voinţei să fie şi înfăptuirea, potrivit cu mijloacele voastre.

12 Pentru că, dacă este bunăvoinţă, darul este primit, avându-se în vedere ce are cineva, nu ce n-are.

13 Aici nu este vorba ca alţii să fie uşuraţi, iar voi strâmtoraţi,

14 ci este vorba de o potrivire: în împrejurarea de acum, prisosul vostru să acopere nevoile lor, pentru ca şi prisosul lor să acopere, la rândul lui, nevoile voastre, aşa ca să fie o potrivire,

15 după cum este scris: „Cel ce strânsese mult n-avea nimic de prisos, şi cel ce strânsese puţin nu ducea lipsă.”

Luca 6

38 Daţi, şi vi se va da; ba încă vi se va turna în sân o măsură bună, îndesată, clătinată, care se va vărsa pe deasupra. Căci cu ce măsură veţi măsura, cu aceea vi se va măsura.”

Galateni 6

6 Cine primeşte învăţătura în Cuvânt să facă parte din toate bunurile lui şi celui ce-l învaţă.

7 Nu vă înşelaţi: „Dumnezeu nu Se lasă să fie batjocorit.” Ce seamănă omul, aceea va şi secera

8 Cine seamănă în firea lui pământească va secera din firea pământească putrezirea, dar cine seamănă în Duhul va secera din Duhul viaţa veşnică.

Faptele apostolilor 4

34 Căci nu era niciunul printre ei care să ducă lipsă: toţi cei ce aveau ogoare sau case le vindeau, aduceau preţul lucrurilor vândute

35 şi-l puneau la picioarele apostolilor, apoi se împărţea fiecăruia după cum avea nevoie.

7 For the Lord God will help me; therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall not be ashamed.

Matthew 8

17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
