How to STOP living in DEFEAT!

Are you living in defeat? Are you a Christian that wants more out of life? Are you broke? Do you have pain in your body that just won't leave, or a disease that just persists and persists? Are you struggling with an autoimmune disease that just wrecks your body? Would you love to see healing in your body, in your emotions, and in your mind? Then you've come to the right place. Hi, my name is John Humenik. Welcome back to the channel. I got a powerful message for the Christian today who's struggling with anything and everything that going throughout their life, whether it's your body, your mind, your soul, your spirit, your will, all those things, your finances. There's so many different Christians out there that I have known and seen who are struggling and have accepted some form of defeat in their life. And I'm here to prophesize over you today and to talk about the things that God wants you to hear, to know, That not only is your portion healing, but that Christ paid for that on the cross, and he wants nothing less than perfection in your life. Let's get started. If you know someone who's struggling with something like this, maybe you're not in that position, but maybe if you do, please share this video with them because this is gonna blow their mind. And I want to encourage you today that you're not defeated, that today is the day of your restoration. You may not see the miracle today, although some will. You will see the healing come to pass Today or tomorrow or even within the week. And I just want to encourage you today that healing is the portion of the Christian, that finances and overflowing finances belong to the Christian. And I just want to encourage you that total and complete freedom of your emotional state, your mental state belongs to you. Now, when you start to study the scriptures, one of the key things I want you to understand is, is that people have come into agreement with defeat. And if you're in that spot, you're in the right place because I want to encourage you today because defeat is not the portion of the Christian. The Christian walks out life victoriously, trampling on snakes and scorpions. That may not sound like your life today, but I want to encourage you that 3 years ago, neither did mine. I want you to understand that you can walk out the victory the same way I did, but it takes a reorientation, a coming into agreement with the word of God, and being able to walk things out in faith and in hopefulness that allows you to put the the steps you are putting in place to match the word of God in your life. So let's go ahead and get started into those very things so that you can unlock all the things that you need to unlock. Now, if you're a prayer warrior or someone who continues to pray and you're not seeing the manifestation of your prayers, more than likely it's a part where God wants you to join your faith with his action in order to take steps forward. It's really a different state when you're saying, hey, I'm praying for healing versus receiving healing, because when you look at Jesus's ministry, Jesus Jesus never once prayed for healing. You can say and explain away, oh, that Jesus was God in the flesh and we don't have that same power. But you have to understand that God, Jesus Christ, came and emptied himself, made himself nothing. So when he walked out life as a man, although spiritually he was still God, physically he was 100% man. So he took on all the limitations that we had in order to walk out a life in victory. When Jesus died on the cross, he took all those lashes in order for your healing. Explains in Isaiah 53, it's by his stripes you are healed. You have to recognize that if you have any physical problem in your body, no matter what it is, that your healing can come. And not only can it come on this side of eternity, it can come today. You have to come into agreement with that, that God's healing is for you. So many Christians walk through life saying, "Well, God can heal them. God can heal those people, you know, her or him," and then they accept. Their healing and their miracle, but don't believe that God can do the same for them. I even saw a miracle today that happened where an individual who believed in faith that all these other people could get healed except for this individual. And then what happened was, is when that person finally came into agreement and stepped into the promises that God had, this individual got completely healed from a disease that wrecked their body for decades. It was something that this individual was supposed to have for the rest of their life. And yet God smashed it like that. And I want to encourage you today, because that's what Isaiah 53 is all about. Go and read that chapter. And as it explains the suffering servant, technically, it starts at the back half of Isaiah 52 and continues into 53. So if you read that, you'll see what Jesus came to do for your life. And you have to accept it. Because as an individual, as a Christian, I have seen and experienced myself miracle healing, I have experienced healing that has progressed over a period of time. And the difference between the two is, is miracle hearing— healing happens instantly, whereas healing itself happens over time. Remember, God doesn't promise miracles, but he does promise healing so that if you believe in faith, you can walk things out. It's no different if you have back problems, heart issues, cancer, even all forms of mental issues. I even had a video recently with my daughter Sabrina on this channel that talked about how God smashed ADHD off her life. How many people with ADHD do you know that got miraculously healed by God? In fact, she's the only one I've ever met. I don't know if you know anyone, but I can assure you that if she has had that miracle healing, that should give you the faith to rise up and ask God for the same thing. But you can declare that healing, you can pray through that healing, you can go through and walk out these victorious things, because God doesn't want you to be in that situation. God never put you on this earth just to get by, to be comfortable, to go through the motions on a day-to-day basis. He came To give you life and life abundantly, to have a victorious life, to walk and trample on snakes and scorpions and all the powers of the enemy. Nothing will harm you. It's so important as you walk out life that you see it with the fullness that he sees it for you, because he didn't die on the cross and take the beating of a millennia just for you to walk out in defeat. That's not what he came to do. And that's where so many other people that struggle to understand that Christians aren't meant to be poor. In fact, the entire wealth of the world. world belongs to Christians. That's how it works. Because what you see is, is the promises tied to Abraham came through Christ and then became available to us. That's the essence of what we're supposed to do. So the wealth that's stored in the world belongs to us. We're the ones supposed to be eating the filet mignons and the lobster dinners. We're the one that's supposed to be enjoying caviar and yachts and private jets. Now, people will say, well, you're preaching the prosperity gospel. But if you understand that when you recognize that God's promises are for the Christian, are for those that are saved, And then you recognize that those things belong to you and you come into agreement with that, your life will shift. Because I remember 3 years ago I was struggling and steeped in debt and in a place where it just never seemed surmountable that I would be able to ever get out of because I was just continuing to crawl and crawl and crawl and just struggle. But now God's got me living victoriously, smashing hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt that I piled up in my previous life, which is basically the prior to the last 3 years. And I call it my previous life because it was a previous season and And God is doing it in miraculous ways and will smash all the debt that I had accumulated for so many years of my life instantly. Because remember, one moment of favor can transform your life. And that's the essence of what God wants to do in your life. He is doing it. He's doing it in my life and he's doing it when I was actually unemployed for a large stretch of time. So how do you get rid of hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt and actually have no income coming in? It's only by the hand of God that this happens. And I will walk you through in this video how that happens, but you have come into agreement that these promises belong to you. If you can't step into the realm of faith and understand that God needs you to walk through this realm— that's the essence of what it means in faith. Faith isn't just believing. Faith is belief with action. It's so important that you recognize that you have to walk this out. And if you don't walk this out, and if you stay content, or you're basically— you're stuck in a situation where you don't believe These things belong to you. You will remain where you're at and functionally bound by the lies that the devil has for you, because the devil can't touch the Christian. That's what it says in the Bible—that he has no more authority to touch the Christian, which means when you study the Greek, it means to influence their life and to be able to knock them off course. He can't do that anymore. All he can do is speak into you and get you to believe that healing's not for you, that healing isn't going to happen now; it'll happen later. That money to pay off your debts isn't going to happen now, and the The thing that a lot of people misunderstand with finances is that we think God is limited to our paycheck, or we're limited to what our business can produce, or even what the ministry can make. But God has enough money for you to take this world-class vacation to wherever you want, whether that's Hawaii, Disney World, whatever you're believing, a mountain resort to go skiing. And he has enough money to bless that next birthday, to send all your children to college for free based upon your being able to do that so they don't have to pay for it. They have Enough money. He has enough money to be able to afford gifting your pastor a brand new house and a brand new car. Don't limit God to your ability to understand the scope in which you can spend money. That's not how it works. You've got to stand in faith and walk out things in victory so that God can bless you first in order to bless others. And it doesn't just apply to finances. It applies to your mental state, your emotional state. I can't tell you how many men that I know that have bound up their emotions to be manly and have forgotten that godly emotions were meant to be expressed openly and in front of others so that you can be a part of the community. Because if you start keeping and putting up a wall, then you are no longer relatable. If you're no longer filled with joy, people won't want to be around you. If you're restless and being not in a state of peace, no one will be around you. God wants you to walk out this emotional journey to experience all the things he wants you to experience, because in many cases, a lot of the things that you need to experience is a part your process to be able to cope and to reconcile what happened, especially if it's bad, so that you can just move on and rather than allow it to be bottled up and become a chain that drags this ball along your life. It's no different than freedom. Whenever you have come into agreement with the lies of the enemy and believe the things that are out there, such as evolution— think about this from a perspective of evolution, where the world wants to shift the identity of the Christian to be that of an animal. We are sons and daughters of the Most High God. We are made in his image. We're the only thing in all of creation that can house the Spirit of the Lord. Every single else, every single thing else can get destroyed— mountains, trees, oceans, even entire universes. If you study Revelation 19, that even the universe has to roll away in his presence, but yet humanity stays behind. We're the only ones that can house the fullness of the Spirit of God. Think about that, what that means. You have the entirety and all of the power, the complexities, and the awesomeness of the Holy Spirit living inside of you. That's incredible, which means you are a literal walking atmosphere of a superpower that can accomplish anything that's within the will of God. And that's the permissible will of God. I'm not even talking about the The perfect will of God, because the permissive will of God is pretty, pretty expansive. So now when you lay hands on someone, they are healed. When you lay hands on yourself, you're healed. If you go out there and preach this, that you will be able to live and not die, you will be able to generate income and be able to lay up generational wealth to your children and your children's children and be a blessing to so many people. It happens. This is the thing where defeated Christians have come into agreement with all these lies. If you're part of a religion, whether that's Catholics or Methodists or Presbyterians, whether it doesn't matter where you're at, even if you consider yourself an evangelical or even a Protestant, ultimately you have to stand on what says in the Bible. Because when you start to understand that all the promises in the Bible belong to you, they belong to you, and that God's a respecter of no persons, meaning anything that has happened to anyone, including Jesus, can happen to you, then you have all the capabilities to be successful. And it's not going to come without confrontation. There you see this throughout the Bible. You saw that Daniel was attacked even though he did nothing wrong. He was basically accused and they were looking for something to attack him. Jesus lived a sinless life and they still killed him on a cross. You have to recognize that even though you're going to walk out this life, trouble will come looking for you. But you operate from a place of victory, which means unless you are victorious in that moment or in that season, God's not done. You have to walk these things out. You have to walk out your healing and victory. You have to walk out these bondages and smash them along the way and take the scriptures and then come into an agreement that what the scripture says are true and what you are believing are wrong. And when you start to do that, it will start to transform you. And God will do this over a period of time because he can't unravel everything that's in your life at once, because then you would not be able to handle the pressure of that life that you would need to walk into. But what he'll do is he'll take one piece. And one piece, and then he'll course correct you. He'll reset your mind, reset your knowledge, reset your wisdom, move you a couple steps forward, reset you again and again. And when you start to recognize and read the Bible over and over again, cover to cover, Genesis to Revelation, Genesis to Revelation, switch up the different versions. Go from the ESV, the NESB, go into the NIV, the NLT, look at the Amplified, look at the, the Passion Translation, look at the Message Translation. Look at all these different ones. Glean from these different Bible translations the deeper meanings of what God wants you to do. When you start to recognize these things and the truth leaps off the page, you can come into agreement with the truth, and then you'll be set free. That's what Jesus talked about. Jesus didn't walk out this life for you to be defeated, for you to struggle, for you to be in a situation where you cannot be an overcomer. It's so key that you receive. This message because that's what it's all about. Your healing is the difference between your healing is your understanding and then it walking itself out. Your ability to have prosperity and walk life out in the fullest is the difference between here and your hands. That's it. Is being able to put your hand to the plow and operate it. God did not promise that he was going to just literally dump riches in your lap. That's what the devil does because the devil will do that and have people squander it because they're not ready for it. But what he did is he'll show you and teach you how to be able to generate wealth. That's what it says in Deuteronomy. He gives you the power to confirm, to confirm his covenant with you by giving you the ability to generate wealth. And he wants you to, to praise him along the way so that there is no way that anyone else would get the credit but him. That's how you walk these out in victory. If you had seen me 3 years ago and understood the current state I was in, I had severe back issues. Functionally broke, just steeped in debt, just steeped in debt. Being in a situation where it's bound with bound by knowledge, but not bound by the freedom of God. This is a huge difference, especially if you're head smart and you have multiple degrees and you you have tons of experience. You will literally allow life experiences and your own knowledge to get in the way. God is so much more than your ability to understand Him. God is so much more than the experiences. You've had. When you trust the Lord to be able to move you forward in victory from your own self and get out of your own way and step up and move forward, you're going to be victorious in every area of your life because you already are victorious in every area of life. That's the difference between a defeated Christian and one that's destroying the kingdom of darkness. The difference is, is the Christian who understands what they're supposed to do They just walk it out in faith. They do the things they're supposed to do. They're humble. They're surrendered. They're obedient. And all of these things get added unto you. Healing is a part of that. Financial prosperity is a part of that. Spiritual freedom from bondages and lies, including generational curses, includes the emotional state. It includes the mental state. There's nothing the Christian can be bound to in their life on this side of eternity that they. Did not come into agreement with. Like, this is key to understand this: you cannot be bound on this side of eternity if you have been in a situation where you come into a disagreement with it. It can only be a temporary thing. In that moment when you are in disagreement with that thing that you're dealing with, it can only hold you for a short period of time. And even then, technically it's not holding you, it's just trying to slow you down. But when you recognize how God takes all the things that are going on for the good of those who love him, you'll recognize that that slowdown was only strengthening you along the way. Look at the story of Moses as a perfect example of this. When Moses was born, Pharaoh knew that the Israelites were getting out of control from a perspective of how many they were being born. So he ordered that all the firstborn males of all the Israelites be executed and died. So what did Moses's mom do? She put Moses in the water and then Then Pharaoh's daughter, ironically, right, pulls Moses out and raises him as her son. And then years later, what happens is, is that the very thing that was supposed to kill Moses was the one thing that set the Israelites free when he went and parted the Red Sea by the command of God. And then the Israelites walked over on dry land, and then the subsequent Pharaoh came and died in the subsequent water. And so what you see here is the very weapon that the devil is trying to kill you is Is the very weapon that you will succeed with. And that's what we, we need to understand is, is that we go through these things so that we are strengthened and emboldened for our testimony. When I lay hands on people that have back problems, they're healed. When I lay hands on people that are sick, they're healed. My family don't get sick anymore. We used to get sick multiple times a year. It was unbelievable. We would every single flu season, every single cold season, every time the kids would go back to school, every time the kids would leave school. It was just this constant thing, and sometimes would last months and months and months. But we have rejected illness. It's just something— it's impossible for us to get sick. You have to come into this state of mind that it's impossible for the Christian to be sick. It's impossible for you to be poor. It's impossible for you to be underneath. It's impossible for you to be the borrower. And that's the key thing, is don't come into these situations where you believe that you have to always be under, that what the world is telling you, you have to into agreement with. As a Christian, you walk a dominant and victorious life. And then the moment you start to accept that in one area of your life, watch how God changes that. It's like a house. Think about it from rooms. Think about your life as rooms within this really large house. And you go in and you clean one room, you organize it, you dust it, you vacuum it, you polish it, and then you move on to the next room, and the room is pristine. And then you go on to the next one and the next one. That's what your life is like. And so I want to encourage you today to walk out this victorious life, to walk out victory the way Christ told you to walk out victory— with your head high, focused on the mission, to be able to move forward and to be able to do the things he's asking you to do. Because you cannot do those things if you're spiritually bound, if you're an emotional wreck, a mental wreck, if you're broke, or if you're struggling with some form of physical anomaly, whether it's an illness, uh, Infirmity, a back issue, a muscle issue. You cannot operate from the posture that you're supposed to be in, in victory. If you are in any of those situations, you will struggle. You can be somewhat victorious, but if you're 60 years old and still struggling and you're thinking, hey, I'm 5 years away from retirement, you've already lost. That's the thing that God is trying to tell you. You've already lost. You cannot think that I am just saving for retirement. That I'm just saving for my college education or my kids' education, or I'm just saving to get through so I can have that opportunity to have that vacation, or I can go on that date with my spouse. That's not how God works. God works from victory to victory, faith to faith, glory to glory. It's about dominating every aspect of your life, not walking life out quietly, but dunamis-level power. It's like TNT, where every single situation has to align with the will of God on your life. Has to. There's no other way. It doesn't matter who comes against you. It's all about the power of God. It's all about Him getting the glory. It's all about Him being victorious in your life to prove His covenant with you because you are a representation of Him on this earth. And if you're not walking in victory in every part of your life, you're truly misrepresenting God and you're misrepresenting yourself because that's what God wants for you. And I was in that boat three years ago, and I want to encourage you today. That all you have to do is take that metaphor, that example, that symbolism of cleaning each room in a house. You cannot clean every single room in your house simultaneously. Even if you had multiple people doing it, it still can't be done. Because what'll happen is, is just cause too much of a commotion, too much ruckus, and it'll just not be the way it's done because it's just too confusing. Go at it one step at a time. Address one thing. There'll probably be a couple things that linger from time to time, and there'll be, you know, the sin that easily ensnares you. But you'll know that eventually all those things will come to pass, including the sin that ensnares you, the one that tries to trip you up every single time. Maybe it's your fact that you have your anger issues. Maybe it's a financial issue. Maybe you're coming into an agreement with something that you shouldn't do, and you're not walking out the fullness of God. When you study the Bible and you read it through and through and operate from those principles, you will never be defeated. In fact, you'll just start going. You will accelerate. What will happen is is that you'll start to accelerate. Straightforward even more rapidly as each victory starts to compound. And then each victory will be faster and faster because what you'll recognize very clearly, as I did, is that the word of God is true. And not only is the word of God true in every aspect of your life, but that when you apply it, it accelerates everything even forward. And then you get to stand on those moments so that when the devil comes and tries to bring doubt into you and say, hey, maybe this situation is going to be different. Maybe God doesn't want me to do this. Maybe the money that I used to make I can't make here. But God's going to say yes and amen, and that's what he wants to do. Because remember, amen means so be it. So when you start to walk this victory out, it's going to become an accelerator, and the things will happen, and it won't be long. The reality is, is it may only be 1 to 2 years and your life will be transformed. It might only be 6 months. It may even only be a couple days. But I just want to encourage you today that God's got That God wants you to live in victory throughout all of life, and not just victory, but overwhelming victory. He wants your faith to be on fire. He wants your body to be as strong as it could be. He wants you to be victorious in your mind and in your heart. He wants you to be victorious in your pocketbook, and he wants to be victorious in life because you're his child, and you would want your children to be in that same gate, basically in that same boat. So imagine the God of the universe. Who has no limitation? Why would he want anything less for you? And that's the truth you've got to accept. That's the truth you've got to put in your heart and in your mind and walk it out in victory. And that every time the devil comes to you and starts to speak those lies, you just silence him. He just says, "You just be quiet. Get behind me, Satan," and you get to move on. And guess what happens? You will find victory after victory, and it'll become part of your life, and you will see miracles, signs, and wonders everywhere you go. It'll blow you away. And then. Then you will become the example that others follow to Christ and to beyond. So I hope you really like this message. We got an exciting thing going on in John Humenik Ministries.

And even as I look back at myself 3 years ago, I don't even recognize that person. I can't even comprehend what that person thought, because today my thought process and everything that I do is completely different. And I am walking out faith to faith and glory to glory in victory. And every situation that presents itself, that tries to be chaotic, that tries to be loud, ultimately gets silenced by the word of the Lord. God bless.
