Welcome to the Roar of Judah. Our mission is to hear God's voice above the noise of this world. And now here's Dr. Mike. Hello, everyone. Welcome to another episode of the Roar of Judah. I'm your host, Dr. Mike. And uh in the Bible, in Psalm 103, we find a new name that God uses first off is Jehovah Rapha. And in Psalm 103.3, it says, praise the Lord, and that the Lord forgives sins and he also heals your diseases. And, you know, God can heal in so many different ways. Sometimes he uses doctors and the gift that he's given them. Sometimes it's through medication. Sometimes it's just through some spiritual rest and meditation. And, you know, sometimes God does miraculous healings. And uh the person that we're gonna introduce to you today has gone through many different physical ailments and issues in the past that doctors just did not know how to solve, but God did. And I'm excited to hear exactly how God helped her through that and how God walked with her on the journey. So we're please welcome with me today, my guest, Caprice Gott. Hi Caprice, how are you?

SPEAKER_01 1:14

Hello, I'm fantastic. How are you, Dr. Mike?

SPEAKER_00 1:17

Good, good. And I'm so glad you wanted to come on and share your testimony and story today. Uh but we'd always love to hear a little bit about our guests. So anything you want to share about your family, where you're living, any anything you want to share.

SPEAKER_01 1:31

Absolutely. I am married. Um my husband, Richard, he is a he's actually a university librarian, and he's also um a church musician. We live in Colorado. We have two indoor cats and an outdoor cat who kind of adopted us. I have a an adult son, and he lives in Idaho with his wife. And I am a certified life coach minister, a faith coach, and an author. And I love teaching people about how to have a relationship with Jesus and experience all of his goodness.

SPEAKER_00 2:10

So that's awesome. Thank you for sharing. And uh, like I said, we really want to get into your story and kind of what you had been through and how God brought you out of the pits of what you were dealing with, and uh, so I'll just let you take that away.

SPEAKER_01 2:26

Yes, absolutely. So I can show you, and basically, I mean, I could tell you my whole long life story before, but I'll just basically tell you that I experienced enough emotional trauma probably for five lifetimes. And uh that all started whenever I was very, very young, all the way up until my mid-30s. And by the time I was in my 40s, a lot of things started showing up in my body because of all of that emotional trauma. I ended up getting very, very sick. And so, I mean, fast forward to 2019. In 2019, I was so extremely ill that I was bedridden. And basically, I had gone to all of the allopathic medicine doctors you can imagine. I went to uh naturopaths, I went to just I've tried, I tried everything, you know, to get well for years and years, including all kinds of diets and things like that. And at this point in 2019, I was on 13 different medications for all of the stuff I had going on. And it wasn't just physical, I had a lot of emotional, as you can imagine, because I was so sick physically and because of everything I had experienced in my life. I had a lot of emotional stuff going on. I was very depressed and I had extreme anxiety. I was dealing with panic attacks and severe insomnia. And so this day, there was this day, February 14th of 2019, I was in bed and I was basically praying, I was telling the Lord, um, if you're gonna take me, please do it quickly, do it now. But if you're gonna pull me out of this, then please give me a sign that you're gonna pull me out of this. And within 10 minutes, he gave me the sign that I asked for. But I'm gonna back up a little bit and show you some of the things that I was dealing with. I'm gonna actually read them because honestly, Dr. Mike, I forget, you know, after you've been healed from all of these things, you forget all of the stuff that you were dealing with. So these are these were um diagnoses and conditions, and keep in mind that there were plenty of symptoms that went along with them, right? So I was diagnosed with seven autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis and celiac disease. I had EMF sensitivity, motility disorder where my digestive system wasn't functioning at all. I had SIBO, systemic candidiasis, even affecting my blood, which can be fatal. I had POTS, Lyme disease with co-infections, mold illness, chronic fatigue syndrome, chronic rashes all over my body, parasites, I had severe allergies to animals and weeds and grasses and foods to the point that I was down to only five foods. I could only eat five foods if you even consider rutabaga a food. I've gotten to the point where I don't anymore, right? So I also had migraines. Um it was experiencing neuropathy and numbness in my hands and pain all over my body. Uh one of my doctors thought that I might have fibromyalgia, carpal tunnel syndrome, and tendinitis, and four genetic mutations that were completely impairing any detoxification happening in my body. My liver wasn't functioning correctly. I was having recurrent sinus infections and bronchial infections, as I mentioned, severe insomnia. I even ended up having skin cancer because I had been on rheumatoid arthritis medications that said you're not supposed to go outside, and it was like there's no way I can't go outside because I'm a sunshine baby. I love the sun, right? And so I ended up with skin cancer, and the first time I had it cut off, and then I had it burned off, and um it came back. So, all of that to say, and again, you know, I'm dealing with symptoms from all of these things as well, and some of those symptoms were so severe that as I mentioned, I was bedridden. There were days that I was crawling through my house just to get from one room to the other, and just my whole days, it was all about just trying to do things that most people take for granted, as you can imagine, you know, um just because my body wasn't functioning and I couldn't eat normally, and it was awful. So this day in February, um February 14th of 2019, it was just like, Lord, I can't keep doing this. You know, I was having heart pains, um, and my husband was taking me to urgent care, he had taken me there multiple times. They're trying to figure out what's going on, and you know, none of the doctors could really help me. And so I had been seeing an integrative medicine doctor um around this time, and he I thought maybe he was like, finally, you know, this guy is gonna help me because nobody else has known what to do. He actually had been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, and um he realized that there was nothing that could be done for him, and so he started looking into integrative medicine to see, you know, can I change my diet? Do I need to change other things? What else is left? And so I was going to see him, and my husband was taking um about three hours every single Wednesday to drive me to see this doctor so that he could give me glutathione IVs because he thought that that might help get my liver functioning again. And that had been going on for about five months and it was making me worse. It was like nothing was working. Everything that any doctor tried to do to help me was making me worse. And so, you know, this is a reason why I'm just like, Lord, is this over? Am I done? You know, because I can't keep living like this and I didn't want to. My whole body hurt. And I emotionally and mentally, it's totally in the gutter, you know, what's left? You you give up hope at this point. And so when God gave me that sign that he was gonna pull me out of it, and I'll tell you briefly that this sign that he had given me was something that I had there was a history of this in the past where he had shown me a dove like 20 years before, and it was a pure white dove that was 20 years before that was actually sitting on the railing on my front porch whenever I had asked him, you know, um, please let me know that you're with me. And so, you know, back then in 2019, when I asked him for a sign, I had actually been a um a professional potter. I was a professional artist. And so pottery was my thing, but I was too sick to do that. Well, whenever I asked God for a sign, I was looking on Instagram and I wasn't searching for this specifically, but I was just kind of scrolling because it's like, what else do you do when you're in bed? You know, and the sign that it gave me was a potter's hand with a tiny white clay dove in it. And so I knew that this was God speaking to me. And so I thought, okay, this gives me a little bit of hope. And a couple of days after that, I kind of pulled a Gideon John the Baptist kind of thing, and I said, Lord, um, I need more than this. I need more than just the sign that you gave me a few days ago. I need to know that you're gonna totally pull me out of this, and so I need to see a dove every single day until I'm healed. And Dr. Mike, God sent me doves every single day until I was healed. That's how incredible he is. But it took a while, it didn't just happen immediately. I thought, okay, God's gonna heal me because he promised he's gonna heal me, you know. So I'm thinking, okay, you know, is it is it gonna take the right formula or the right prayer, or what is it that I have to do to get him to heal me? That was what because I I was actually um in a church that kind of was teaching me that God wanted me to be sick, you know, that the only way that I could be saved was for God to make me sick. And then no, God started showing me that's not at all. He wanted me well. You know, Jesus went to the whipping post for healing, and that's what he started showing me. But fast forward then to the next month of March 2019, I went back to my doctor and he called my husband and me into his office. And oh my goodness, we sat down and he looked very, very upset. And he put his head in his hands and he was rocking back and forth like this, and he said, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. He had received all of my latest test results, and he said, literally said this, he said, They are off the charts bad. I have never seen anybody as sick as you are. He said, Even the company that created these tests, they don't even know how to help you. They had nothing to share with me, and so I'll tell you what, if God had not given me that hope rope the month before, that would have been it. I would have given up. But the doctor said, Did you by chance have any kind of childhood trauma? Oh my goodness, yes. Oh, talk about off the charts bad. So, anyway, he said, There's one thing that might help your digestive system, but it's not gonna help anything else. And I said, I will try anything, anything that's gonna help, something, you know. And so he told me about um something new called brain retraining. And so um I started looking at this, he told me about it. I went home and I prayed about it, and I said, Lord, if this is what you want, if this is what you want me to do, if this is your answer for me, then I need for you to pay for this program. And God paid for the program outright within 48 hours of that prayer, and so I knew that God wanted me to do that, and the reason why he needed for me to do that was because to be honest, because of what I shared before about what I thought that God that God wanted me to be sick, and um God was like, no, I want to show you that it's your thinking that has gotten you into the place where you're experiencing these things. And so this brain retraining program basically took me through the science behind what I was experiencing. You know, whenever I found out, one of the things I found out was that um 75% of the people who have autoimmune diseases are women. And I started looking at that saying, wait, what? God needs to punish women more than men? That doesn't make sense. No, we're more emotional. And those emotions come out if we don't deal with them in a healthy way, and nobody, you know what, how many people know how to process emotions in a healthy way, right? If we don't learn how to do that, then they start coming out physically. They start showing up in our bodies physically. And so God started showing me that, but he basically, the Holy Spirit told me Capri's brain new training is not gonna be enough for you. And this is the most beautiful part, Dr. Mike, is that God started showing me he wanted to have an even deeper personal relationship with me. And this was the best part of the journey, of my healing journey. He started teaching me things from the word about healing. And I'd like to share a few of those things with you. He told me that I needed to change my thoughts. He showed me how wrong thinking had been making me sick. Proverbs 23 or 27, 3 says that as a man thinks in his heart, so is he. And so God started showing me I needed to change my heart beliefs, and I needed to realize also how much he loved me because that was huge in my healing. He was teaching me how to have a relationship with him, how to trust him. Um, he showed me that um I needed to change how I was speaking because my words were nasty, they were awful. I was just constantly speaking condemnation over myself. And Isaiah 57, 19 says that God creates the fruit of our lips. And so I was like, well, wait, what does that mean? He said, That doesn't mean, Caprice, that I'm waiting for you to say something bad so that I can go, man, Caprice just messed up. I'm gonna make that happen. We were created in his image and in his likeness, and our words actually create our realities, and I didn't realize that. So he taught me that. He taught me about um my negative imaginations. Isaiah 26 verse 3 says, You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed upon you because he trusts in you. That word mind is the Hebrew word Yetzer, and it literally means like to build the framing of a house or create and shape pottery. So that was huge to me. It was like I'm creating my reality with negative imaginations. And so he taught me how to use my imagination in a good and positive way to begin seeing myself healed and agreeing with him. He also taught me my identity in Christ. 2 Corinthians 5 21. God made him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. Wow, that was so different from what I understood about myself. God saw me righteous instead of this nasty, horrible sinner, and that was really important. I also um learned about my authority in Christ, Luke 10 19. Jesus said, I give you authority over snakes and scorpions and all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means harm you. So he gave me specific verses to deal with certain things. Um, Mark 11:23 tells us to speak to the mountain, right? What does that mean? Well, I had that skin cancer that came back. So the first time that came back, it came back on my left hand. And God told me, I want you to speak to it. Speak to it and command it to dry up and die by its roots, the way that Jesus spoke to the fig tree. And so I began commanding it, you will dry up by your roots and die in the name of Jesus. It took six months. Here's why it took so long. I was in fear. You can't be in faith and fear at the same time. I mean, you can be, but the the fear is gonna cancel out the bait. And so it was like, okay, I finally, finally got out of the fear and it dried up and went away. The next year it came back on my right hand, I was like, oh no, here we go again. And it took me several weeks before I could get out of the fearful mindset because this time it was worse. But within three months, I commanded it to dry up and die by its roots, and it literally shrunk and fell off. Incredible, right? And he also gave me other things like I was dealing with chronic fatigue syndrome, you know, and um so he told me about you know Nehemiah um 810. This says the joy of the Lord is your strength. So I began speaking that over myself all the time. And it I can't say that it was like, oh yeah, whenever I first started taking walks and everything, that I felt amazing. It took a while for me to convince my brain, look, this is our new reality. We are going to agree with what God says instead of how the body feels. Because we get so focused on how our flesh feels, you know, and God's like, no, I want you to agree with me. And so my mind is the boss of my brain, right? And so it's like, okay, I'm gonna speak this, I'm gonna believe that I feel amazing. Thank you, God, that I'm healed. And I went from being bedridden in April of 2019 to I believe it was July of 2019, I was hiking in the mountain. I remember doing a nine-mile hike.

SPEAKER_00 22:03

Wow.

SPEAKER_01 22:04

So huge night and day difference. But the food issue, you know, as I mentioned, I was on five foods. I was eating like cucumbers and I was eating quinoa and rutabaga and um zucchini. I mean, it's just not very much, and I was really sick, but I had to start adding foods in, and that took me longer. It took me two years to be able to add all foods back in. And again, it was about fear. I had to get over the fear of, oh my gosh, this is gonna affect me in a negative way, you know. And when as I slowly imagined, I used my imagination and I used scripture that talks about how you know um God had made food healthy for me. It was good for me, and I could trust that he was gonna bless it whenever I ate it. And so that was huge. I had that sitting next to my plate every single day, and I would speak scripture over my food and pray over it. And like I said, I had to amuse my imagination and see myself eating it for a couple of weeks before I even tried eating certain things because I needed to train my brain to believe, look, this is safe, it's gonna be okay. So that took, like I said, about two years, but today, man, I'm healthy and strong, and now I have a ministry where I teach people a lot of these things that um that I learned that God taught me. And mainly um the most important things that I teach people is how much God loves them. He's crazy about them, he's crazy about us. And I think that that um a lot of us have missed that because there've been so many mixed messages about how we feel about us. Oh, you're not doing perfectly, you're not keeping the commandments perfectly, you're not doing this or that perfectly. And it's like, we can't do it without him, you know.

SPEAKER_00 24:13

Yeah, yeah. That that's an incredible story for sure. And you, you know, I think, you know, as a counselor, like, you know, I always use the verse, you know, to be transformed by the renewing of your mind in Romans. And that, you know, I'm working on the emotional part, but you know, it's amazing to hear your story that you know you can be physically transformed by renewing your mind as well.

SPEAKER_01 24:38

Yes. Yes, absolutely, and it has to come that way. I mean, you know, we have we we have a spirit and we have a soul and we have a body, but what God showed me is exactly what you said in Romans 12, 2, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. And it was like, I could literally, we can transform our physical being by transforming our beliefs and our words and our imaginations. And it, wow, yeah, right?

SPEAKER_00 25:14

Yeah, absolutely. And you know, um so appreciate the fact that you know, you've been in the pits, and you know, you know, I work mainly with anxiety because I became bed ri bedridden with anxiety um back in my early college days, and you know, and when God brought me out of that, I you know, I didn't leave it there. Like I've helped bring a lot of other people out of it as well. And my understanding, like, you know, you do a lot of the same thing. Like, you know, you were down in the pit, God's brought you out, and now you're able to help be a light and a guide for others. And uh so people listening to this that you know is going through like some of these physical issues, and they may attach it to some past trauma and know that you know there's things that they've never dealt with. Like how how could people reach out to you and you know, what do you have available that may be a blessing and a help to them?

SPEAKER_01 26:08

Absolutely. We have so many resources. Um, you can find me on Facebook. I have a Facebook group called Ecclesia Exusia, and basically that is the bride of Christ that's um we're empowering, right? That is that is what I want to do. I want to empower the bride of Christ to step into their true identity. And so you can find us there, and we have book studies uh where my team and I we we uh spend time, you know, we'll we'll help you go through a book and we'll talk about it together. We have chats where we um connect in a community. I have several different um free programs. I have the As One Biblically Based Discipleship and Mind Renewal program online for free. And that is basically, I also have a book that so if you're not like if you don't want to do it online, awesome, you can get my book. Um, you know, my team members take people through the book and teach them how to renew their minds. But if you need to, I realize that not everybody learns by reading, and some people learn by hearing, and some people learn by doing, and so that's the reason why I offer it for free online. Um, and you can find that on my website, Capri Scott Ministries.org. Also, uh every single week I have a new um video where I, like I said, I am empowering the bride of Christ. I teach you all kinds of things uh about yeah, how to deal with the emotional stuff, but also how to deal with the physical stuff. I even talk about, you know, how do you deal with other people because that's a big deal. That's huge, you know. Uh how to set boundaries. I mean, just anything that you can imagine. I teach on and I take I go hiking, you know. I I love to hike, and I do videos whenever I'm hiking, and so I teach those things. So you can find my YouTube channel, Capri Scut Ministries, and um I put videos out like at least every other day up now, more so. But I just want to help people. I really want to help people know Jesus and experience him personally the way that I have, so that they can be set free.

SPEAKER_00 28:35

Okay. Yeah, and I really appreciate you coming on and being willing and open to share parts of your story. You know, as you went through your journey, did did you have like a verse that really stuck with you and helped you along the way?

SPEAKER_01 28:50

Oh goodness, there were so many. There are so many. I I had to learn um so many verses just to really help me. But I think that um I think that some of the stories that made the biggest difference for me was like the woman at the wow and how Jesus went out of his way to find her. So it wasn't a specific verse, except for like I said, Isaiah 26, 3, especially with the anxiety. Whenever I was dealing with anxiety, you know, and the panic attacks, Caprice, where's your focus? You will keep in perfect peace whose mind has stayed on you because he trusts in you. Okay, Lord, am I trusting you? Am I focusing on you? Or am I focusing on how I feel? And another thing was um in regards to, and you, and I know you you absolutely know this, is that uh anxiety a lot of times, whenever it shows up in our bodies, it's like, oh my gosh, I've got to run from this, I've got to fix this. And something that he taught me was just like, no, be okay with not being okay for the moment. Stop running from it, stop being afraid of it, you know? And recognize that God is with me and that his presence is always with me, and recognizing the fact that, oh my gosh, the power of the universe is inside of me because Jesus, you know, I'm his temple, I'm the temple of the Holy Spirit. Can I share one other thing real quick?

SPEAKER_00 30:24

Yeah, absolutely.

SPEAKER_01 30:27

Um a huge, huge part of my healing was forgiving people because I experienced so much trauma that um I had to learn how to forgive people, and I needed to learn how to forgive myself. But the forgiveness part was so big that it took me several months to forgive people the way that the Holy Spirit showed me how, and this is something that I share in the ads one program. If people want to know, there's a whole chapter on it. But um I'll tell you how powerful, and you know these things, those all of those negative neurochemicals on our brains. If we don't forgive people, they're gonna keep flown, you know? And so I forgave people, and then a couple of years after 2019, I guess it was probably 2021, somebody did something that was extremely upsetting to me. I mean, I was mad. I was furious with this person. And um, over the course of about two weeks, the rheumatoid arthritis came back. And it was showing up everywhere, all over my body. And so this one Wednesday evening, I went out to get the mail. I literally hobbled out to get the mail because my hips and my knees were hurting so much. And I got back inside and I sat down and I told the Lord, I'm like, I'm mad. I'm gonna tell this person how angry I am. I'm gonna let them know. And the Holy Spirit said to me, Caprice, you absolutely can do that. You can use this to guilt that person if you want to. Or you can choose to forgive this person and you can be set free. Now, again, this wasn't God putting it on me. This was basically he was showing me once again how my feelings and my emotions and my thoughts were affecting me and allowing these things to happen to me once again. And I'll show you, I sat there for two hours because I was struggling with my flesh. I was like, I don't know about this person. I'm so mad. I have a right to be angry. You know, we all have that. I have a right to feel this way. Sure, you do, but I also have the mind of Christ. And Jesus is like, you can agree with me, and you can forgive this person. Within 20 minutes after I got to the point where I said, Okay, Lord, I forgive this person, I'm gonna agree with you. Within 20 minutes, all of the pain was gone. All of it.

SPEAKER_00 33:11

Wow. Wow, yeah. Thanks, thanks for sharing that story. Um, like I said, I mean, forgiveness is uh such a hard issue at times, you know, when we've been wronged, and you know, but uh when we go back to scripture and see how Jesus forgave, you know, can definitely be a motivating factor in that. Um but again, just like all guests, your website will be highlighted in whatever platform people are listening to, and you know, hopefully they can reach out to you, grab your book, um, you know, join your Facebook group, whatever you know, whatever they need so you know you can continue fulfilling your mission that God's given you on your heart to be able to bring people out of the pit as He's done for you.
