174. (Mama:) As always, the Lord is giving us what we need in order to do what He asks of us. Here are some new spirit helpers that He has introduced to help us in the area of changing our habits and learning to live healthier lifestyles in obedience to Him. If you feel lacking in determination or are worried you're not going to be able to follow through, these helpers will be just what you need! Thank the Lord!

175. (Jesus: ) For every area in which the Enemy fights you, I have superior forces standing by if you will avail yourself of their help. You already have *Elixor, *Almathor, the HELP force, Raphael, and others whose task is to heal, hold back, and repair damage that has already been done, sometimes as a result of your failures to live as healthily as you know you should. (* See Wine Press 96 and 97 for more on Elixor and Almathor)

[Box]

Raphael:

(Jesus:) The Archangel Raphael ministers My Word, which has healing power. Through taking in My Word, you gain faith, and it is through faith that I am able to do supernatural miracles for you. I've also made it so that your physical body is soothed, healed, comforted, and afflictions are much less difficult, when you have a spirit of faith and an attitude of faith. It makes a physical difference.

The HELP force:

(Jesus:) And now I give you new spirit helpers who you can call on in times of affliction--the HELP Force. They brought Me comfort and healing during My life on Earth and were by My side in the Garden of Gethsemane. They have now been assigned to help the children of David.

The HELP Force consists of four spirit beings, each one of whom plays a different role, thus their name: HELP. H--healing, E--encouraging, L--life-giving (as in bringing back to life when someone is almost dead, or dead, according to My will), and P--protecting. They are a special operations force of Heaven, and together they raise a force field of protection against Set and his demons and will defeat his attacks. They not only carry the balm of My healing power, but the comfort and encouragement you need; the breath of life for your physical body; a shield of protection--protection from the initial attacks of Set through affliction, as well as protection during sickness.

[End of Box]

176. But these which I will reveal to you now are offensive warriors, counselors‚ guides and forewarners. They are some of your helpers in the art of war, who will help you learn to knock the Enemy flat before he has a chance to deal you any blows.

177.These helpers are trainers, guides, instructors in offensive warfare, and forewarners who can help prepare you for the Enemy's next move. They are not helpers for healing, to call on after you've been disobedient and have been dealt a blow by the Enemy. They are proactive, offensive, and their mission is to help you stay healthy.

178. This requires a different attitude on your part when connecting with them. They can and will be there to help you turn any situation around, but their job is not to shield you until you get the point. Their task is to direct you in launching aggressive attacks to drive back the Enemy, regain lost ground, then keep that upper hand and continue to drive Satan back until you are crushing his gates and defenses beneath your feet.

179. You will need a shift in mindset to maximize their assistance. Many of you run on empty in many ways. By this I mean that many of the children of David still spend their days chasing the hours, doing damage control after the Enemy has swept through and done his damage. You've allowed a defeatist attitude to enter in. Your eyes are focused on all the problems and you can't see any way to get far enough ahead so that when the Enemy comes knocking at your door, you can meet him with a bazooka and let him have it before he can open his mouth.

180. The problem isn't the workload. The problem is your state of mind. The problem is your sense of priorities that places work in the flesh to correct things above action through prayer and time with Me to find out what's needed and what's going to happen. And until you get out of that mindset, you will be on a never–ending treadmill. Unless you start solving some of the big problems through prayer, and learning that not everything was meant to be taken care of by you in the flesh‚ you're always going to be burdened‚ pressured, way behind, and lacking in time for the things that are truly important for you to do.

181. You are going to have to take the proverbial bull by the horns. You are going to have to take a step of faith, a leap of faith. You will have to make a conscious declaration in your heart and mind that I come first—above the work‚ above the crisis, above anything. I know that wrenches your heart‚ for your motives are pure and you hate to see anyone go without or any need be left untended. But in a war you can't operate on the basis of what is nice, but on the basis of what is priority.

182. Your first priority is Me, no exceptions. Your second priority is to do your part to ensure that your body is still going to be around next week or next month or next year, because you haven't let the Enemy destroy it through your disobediences. The waiting world and the harvest will still be here tomorrow. Do you care enough about them to want to continue to guide and help them? You can't if you're dead or incapacitated through disease or a general breakdown because you failed to protect and keep your temple the way I have told you to.

183. Have you gotten the point from My counsel? Have you accepted that, like it or not, it's a priority to do what is necessary to stay healthy? If so, then we can go on to step two. If not, then you'd better keep rereading the preceding messages until you can accept it fully. Because without this conviction, you won't be able to access the help you need, and in the overall picture you will fail in your tasks for Me and many will feel the loss.

Step 2: Call for help before the situation goes bad!

184. (Jesus continues:) The second step to activating the powerful helpers who are at your command is to determine that you are not going to wait for disaster to strike before you use them. When you wake up in the morning, call out to Me. Then, when we've had our time together, call in your team of counselors. I could have given them other names, but I want you to remember them, so they have chosen to have names to depict their characters.

185. Begin with Fury. He carries a deep hatred for Satan and his minions, coupled with the aggressiveness to help you respond with violence in spirit to the subtle, soothing, lulling deceits of Lethargy and Pan, who will be reminding you of how tired you feel, how "passing on your exercise just this once will be okay because you'll make up for it another time."

186. Ask Fury to implant his militancy in your heart, so that when Pan, Lethargy and their underlings of Procrastination, Complacency and Logic come around, their presence and voice will send you into a fury of aggressive attacks against them. Fury will cause their lulling sleepiness to turn into a nuclear reaction in your heart that will spur you to do even more and go to greater lengths to ensure that they are driven out, screaming in panic!

187. There is no compromise in this war. There is no appeasement. There is no cohabitation with complacency.

188. Fury helps you want to fight the Devil. Fury gives you aggressiveness and repulsion for lethargy, postponement, and belittling, some of the weapons the Devil uses to keep you from maintaining your health. Fury helps you see these things for what they are and to be militant and alert against any of the Devil's attacks on your health. And, of course, he is a proactive, offensive helper. His mission is not to help you fight the Devil when the Devil attacks you; he wants to help you see the attack before it gets to you, to expect it and prepare for it, and to go out and meet the Devil before he's reached you‚ and pummel him back to the darkest, deepest hole he can find. This doesn't mean that he will never help you when you are under attack, or when you have failed to see the Enemy coming. The point‚ however, is not to rely on him to help you out of rough spots, but to try to use his help in advance—that's where his greatest power lies.

189. Fury is a preventer of attacks. He's an aggressor and has a "fire first, ask questions later" mentality when it comes to the Devil and his attacks on your health. He helps you want to be the same way. He encourages militancy and fidelity in your lifelong fight to remain strong and healthy. He helps you despise lethargy and postponing, and the thought that important things aren't very important. He makes you a fighter—one who fights for his or her health‚ and who hates any of the Enemy's interference.

190. Think of it like this: The Enemy comes around and works in your mind and heart to try to make you want to neglect and destroy your health. He whispers delay and procrastination, as well as confusion and belittling the importance of things—all of this because he is trying to get you to ruin your body. He wants you to be weak, prone to accidents and illness, frail and vulnerable. Then he wants to infect you and ruin you. He's looking to make your life miserable, to give you pain, to cause expenses and waste your time, to cause inability to work, and ultimately death.

191. There are demons working actively on your mind, your attitudes, your taste buds, your everything, to get you down however they can. They are concerted, aggressive, and hateful. They want only to destroy you in any way they can. Fury sees this, and it fills him with godly rage.

192. He hates those attacks. He hates their methods and their goals. He hates the demons themselves. He's full of My power and My aggressiveness, as well as My wisdom and foresight. He can help you to see those attacks and want to prevent them too. He doesn't prevent the sickness, but he fights against the attack on your attitudes. He fights the attitudes that are wrong—the attitude that you just don't like some of these healthy foods, and that you're gonna be miserable if you can't eat as you like.

193. He helps you to see an attack of the Enemy in your lack of exercise. He can pull back the cloud and help you to see that it's not "just a fact of life," or an unfortunate side effect of your huge workload, or low personnel situation, or low finances, or others who won't do their share, or whatever it is that you feel makes it impossible to get regular vigorous exercise.

194. He is happy to show you that there's a demon attacking you in that. And whenever you start feeling convicted to obey the Word about getting regular exercise, that demon goes to work on your mind, reminding you of all the reasons why you can't really, and why you're justified in not obeying‚ or how "the Word is ideally correct, but your case is really a little different‚" or that "Mama doesn't understand, and the truth is that people don't really need that much vigorous exercise‚" etc.

195. Do you see what I mean? Fury is a fighter, and he works to prevent attacks on you. He helps you to take the battle to the Enemy, and most of all‚ to realize that there is a battle—that you didn't fall into a hole by accident; it was a trap! He'll help you to recognize the Enemy and to understand what's going on, and then give you the militancy, the aggressiveness, the fighting and undying spirit to shove the Devil's crap back in his face and take the battle to him. He'll help you fight!

196. The next one who will be awaiting your daily call is Foresight. He can guide you into the right plan for the day. He knows the traps and snares that the Enemy has laid: snares of busyness, snares of seemingly timely events that become timewasters. Foresight knows the true set of priorities which I need you to follow, and if you link up with him at the beginning of each day, he will check you and guide you to give priority to those things that are essential. He will show you what you need to do to ensure that the care of your temple doesn't get crowded out by the multitude of needs or seeming needs.

197. Foresight is a planner, and he helps you to be a planner too. He knows that My children's lives are full and busy, and the last thing they need is more work. So he tries to make it easy for you. He also knows that planning is the only efficient way to get the most important things done. So he helps you to make a plan and set it in motion. He helps you to look forward with a realistic outlook and make a plan that will work, and that takes into account your reality and your situation.

198. He can help anyone—from those who are in charge of the kitchen, to those who want to make a personal push to eat better‚ to those who need to implement a special diet for health reasons, to those who need a good plan for getting regular exercise, or any other ministry or activity that involves your health. He'll help you plan for good health, whatever that means for you personally. Whether you're a Home manager, a mother or father, or just looking to beef up the stewardship of your personal temple, Foresight's ability is to plan, foresee, and help you to find a way over or around obstacles.

199. Not only can he help you come up with a general plan that you'll follow over a longer period of time, but he's also on call day by day, helping you prioritize and do the most important things first. He'll focus on your health, but help you to balance everything that you need to do, and still be sure to fit personal care in with the proper importance. He can help you navigate every day and keep doing the important things that your health requires. He can help give you perspective and focus and help you bear in mind the importance of your health and the things you're doing every day to maintain it.

200. The next helper is Trainer. He is expert in the needs of the human body. Each body is different, complex, and each person's needs for exercise, nutrition, sleep‚ and other things that contribute to good health are different. There are a million different theories of things that will keep you healthy, but Trainer knows your body better than you do. To Trainer‚ who has studied the human body on a level far beyond anyone on Earth, these mysteries are simple. He is able to show you the perfect plan for exercise, eating a balanced, nutritious diet‚ and meeting the many other needs your body has.

201. He understands your body perfectly and can inspire you with ways to get the most out of every moment spent tending to your body. You'll be amazed at how little time it takes. You don't need to look like Mr. World or Miss Universe to be healthy. Being too skinny can be as dangerous as being too heavyset, and too strenuous an exercise regimen can do as much harm as too lax a regimen.

202. Trainer can inspire the balance that you need to stay healthy in every area. You may still suffer a few afflictions, which I have ordained for a purpose, but you will find new strength and energy, as well as sharper focus, more enjoyment of life, and a brighter outlook overall.

203. Consider Trainer a personal trainer. He's someone you can call on when it's [exercise] time and you just don't feel like getting your heart pumping and working up a sweat. Ask him to help motivate you to do it‚ and do it all. He knows nutrition, sleeping, exercise‚ and anything else that has to do with your body and health. That's his main job, to help you take the best care of your body, and not have to invest too much time researching it and understanding it yourself. When you research health matters, ask Trainer to help you catch the most important points, and then ask him to help you apply it correctly.

204. He can help you to eat the right foods, in the right quantities, and at the right times. He can help you to choose the right forms of exercise and learn to exercise correctly. He can help you to fix anything that needs to be fixed in your schedule or life so that your sleep is sound and as "quality" as it can be. Those are his main areas of expertise. But he can also help you to live right for good health in other ways too. So if you need anything, ask for it. If he can't help you himself, he'll direct you to good help.

205. Trainer's main and most important job is to help you to apply the knowledge of health that I have given you. He helps personalize these things, and he helps you to understand them. He can also help you to keep up with the different plans and ideas he gives you, much like a personal trainer. He can help to motivate you and keep you active.

206. Foresight and Trainer are the kind of helpers you should be calling on, talking to, and claiming every day. They'll be there daily to help you to have a good plan and to implement it. They understand you, and can make healthy living simple for you. They know your body and your mind, and will help you in their respective ways to be able to live a healthy and disciplined life.

207. Think of them as Foresight and Trainer—not two separate beings, but a team. They work hand in hand. Each has his own specialty, but they work together closely‚ and often their portfolios overlap. They're a team that I've designed to help you organize your health life. They're preventers. They'll tell you all you need to know about yourself, help you evaluate your situation personally and as a Home, and come up with workable plans to exercise right, eat right‚ live right, and sleep right. They'll then help you do it every day, and not give up or slow down.

208. They'll help you in any aspect you need, and will cover your health in very unexpected ways too. They might, for example, help alert you to the fact that your fruits aren't being properly disinfected, and help you come up with a solution to make sure no one eats dirty fruit. Or they'll help you to realize that that house you're thinking of renting is right beside a smoky and pollutant-filled factory, and that it will affect your health and breathing. Do you see what I mean? They're a team that takes care of everything related to health and healthy living, each in his own way, but together‚ as a team.

209. Use their help daily. Put up reminders to call on them. As you listen, they'll be able to set the pattern for a new mode of thinking and wise working that will afford you the best of both worlds. They will tune in to you and establish your foundation personally. They will work with you and get you started‚ and then assign a personal helper to you who they will continue to oversee and work with, who can be your personal trainer and assistant.

210. Remember, these helpers can take you far beyond trying to just survive or get by. But you have to take the initiative to draw on their help, counsel‚ protection and guidance. These three—Fury, Foresight, and Trainer—will set the stage personally and be in constant communication with your individual helpers with constant updates.

211. It's the beginning of the days of empowerment, the days of taking your places as My beacons and shepherds of these Last Days. You have a unique task before you. Few throughout history have been called on, not just to withstand the forces of the Enemy, but to aggressively attack them. It's a high calling with high requirements, but I know you can do it as you yield to whatever I know is best for you.

[Box]

A well-trained, well–equipped warrior will always stand a better chance in battle. So train hard and learn to use the weapons at your disposal. But sometimes you're going to get hit when and where you're not fully prepared. Just because you haven't gotten around to memorizing the exact key promises you need for this particular battle, or you're not yet well trained in the most appropriate weapon, that doesn't mean you should give up.

Look around you and grab the first pointy object or club you see, and start swinging away while depending on the Lord and His strength. Sure, I could have slain thousands of Philistines a lot quicker with a pair of handheld Gatling guns, and then had time for a little afternoon lion hunting on the way home. But I grabbed myself the closest weapon I could find‚ did the best I could with what I had, and God did the rest.

So if you're caught by surprise by the Enemy, do whatever you need to do to get the victory. Raise your hands, praise the Lord, sing songs, receive new key promises, quote John 3:16, or just yell "Jesus!" over and over until the Enemy is lying in front of you in a giant heap of arms, legs, and pointy tails. Keep swinging away, and don't stop until you're sure you've gotten the victory!—Samson (speaking from beyond).

In closing

212. (Mama:) Dear loves, I am praying for you as you think and pray about this counsel from the Lord and apply it to your Homes and your lives. I'll try to get more specifics on exercise‚ diet, nutrition, sleep, and other things important to healthy living to you just as soon as we can. In the meantime, ask the Lord if there's anything you can start with right away.

213. Just keep reminding yourselves that the Lord never asks more of you than you can do with His help. I'm proud of you‚ and I'm praying for each of you, that you can feel the results of your obedience right away and be encouraged to keep progressing!

214. I'll close with some new key promises from our Husband, new ammo to fight this battle and win!

With love always in our Commander in Chief and High Priest,
Mama

215. I can change your habits and preferences for the better‚ no matter how deep or longstanding they are, if you'll be open to the way in which I choose to do it.

216. There is no better time than now to start forming better habits. Believe that the keys are capable and claim them, and they will immediately go to work on your mindsets and preferences, changing them for the better.

217. The keys will open your eyes so that you can see as I see: into the future as well as the present. This bigger picture and greater comprehension will help you to better understand the changes you must make, and be convinced of the need.

218. Do your part to acquire better tastes and desires‚ and rejoice in the knowledge that, by doing so, you automatically empower the keys to boost your efforts and cover the bases you cannot. I will work with you and empower whatever keys you need to help you, as you do your part and make an effort.

219. Call on the keys of strength‚ endurance, godly desire‚ conviction, change, renewal, regeneration, and healing. Those keys are powerful and will work miracles for you as you give Me your cooperation, and then watch them do what you cannot do.

220. There is no better time to get something done than when I move and beckon you to follow. Jump fully on the bandwagon of My will now and begin changing your habits, and you'll have the full help of My Spirit and the keys to change your desires and your tastes. It will be so easy you'll be amazed.

221. If the keys are all-powerful and all-capable—and they are—then it's a small thing for them to change any habits that could improve your health. Claim their power as you do what only you can do, and you will not be disappointed as you watch them do what only they can do.

222. My Spirit is moving now … hop on and move with Me, and I promise that it'll be easier than ever! Call on the keys for humility and a new-bottle spirit so you can embrace this revolution and run with it. The keys will help you to overcome the carnal inertia and resistance and do what is best for your body, as well as your spirit.

223. If you're doing everything you can do, and calling on the keys and Me to do what you cannot, you can be assured that you have the very best protection against any afflictions or problems. Not only can nothing touch you unless it's My highest will, but the keys will have full power to heal and restore you quickly whenever anything does hit you.

224. The keys will always protect and strengthen you, but their full power is only activated when you're in the center of My will.—That is, when you're doing your part and following My health rules. So find out if you're doing all you can, and when you've done what you can, know that the full force of the keys is available to heal, restore, strengthen, and protect you. It's My promise.
