SPEAKER_01: Let's go over to Deuteronomy chapter seven.
SPEAKER_01: And um we're going to begin looking at some things as it pertains to uh the basics of healing, the basics of healing.
SPEAKER_01: And um we'll start here in Deuteronomy 7.
SPEAKER_01: You know, when the uh when the Lord I remember uh obviously I've been uh raised around healing uh my entire life.
SPEAKER_01: Uh but now not healing from the word necessarily.
SPEAKER_01: Uh meaning that we had the circles we were in, we put a lot of emphasis on uh uh feeling, a lot of emphasis on being healed by you know the gifts of the Spirit are manifestation, and that's obviously applicable um according to the Word of God.
SPEAKER_01: But the point is that um there was not a lot of emphasis to put faith in God and in his word.
SPEAKER_01: There was a lot of emphasis on God can do it, God will do it.
SPEAKER_01: Uh the power of God is here.
SPEAKER_01: Look for the power, expect the power.
SPEAKER_01: And we should uh to a certain extent, but uh the Bible says over and over again that God's power is found in his word.
SPEAKER_01: Uh the book of Hebrews says that everything is upheld by the word of his power.
SPEAKER_01: All right, Hebrews chapter 1, I think it's around verse 3, says that he's upholding all things by the word of his power.
SPEAKER_01: And uh now that's not to say that, you know, these manifestations and things like that, they're obviously not incorrect.
SPEAKER_01: They're in the word.
SPEAKER_01: But anytime you're chasing a manifestation at the expense of the word, uh you're looking for something that you don't have to exercise full faith in.
SPEAKER_01: And uh the thing with the word is I have to exercise my faith in that.
SPEAKER_01: Uh I can exercise my faith in the power of God, but if I don't have faith in the word, then I don't have a complete view of God's power.
SPEAKER_01: Uh God's power is always available.
SPEAKER_01: The Bible says in uh the four gospels, uh, when Jesus was in his house, it says the power of the Lord was present to heal them.
SPEAKER_01: And and we've taught on that verse many times.
SPEAKER_01: Uh, but out of that whole house full of people, we see one person being healed.
SPEAKER_01: And Jesus attributed it to his faith.
SPEAKER_01: It says he saw their faith.
SPEAKER_01: And so if there were other sick in the building and there were, then the issue was their belief system.
SPEAKER_01: It was what they were, the power was there.
SPEAKER_01: I mean, they saw the man get up off of his bed and carry it home, and yet they didn't get healed.
SPEAKER_01: So seeing someone healed, hearing that someone got healed, uh, seeing a manifestation, is not necessarily going to produce the same result in my life.
SPEAKER_01: Uh, and that's why we have to look at the basics of healing.
SPEAKER_01: So when God, when God, a number of years ago, we've always uh taught and ministered on healing, obviously, but I begin to see it from the word of God.
SPEAKER_01: And I begin to see it in the word.
SPEAKER_01: And so whenever God uh sees fit to uh place a healing anointing, a healing ministry in a pastor's life, they're going to be, it's gonna be heavily word-centered, right?
SPEAKER_01: Because a pastor understands that the word is what's gonna change people's life.
SPEAKER_01: It's not coming to church and feeling something, it's the word.
SPEAKER_01: And so, you know, every time you sit down and you read the word, you don't feel something.
SPEAKER_01: But you get something because you've ingested the word.
SPEAKER_01: And so people will come to church, and I've heard people say, Well, I didn't get anything today, you know, I didn't feel anything.
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but the word went forth.
SPEAKER_01: You got something.
SPEAKER_01: That's the key is what do I believe about the word of God?
SPEAKER_01: And so uh, in this beginning of the basics of healing, uh, the first basic, the first fundamental, if you would, is that God's completely faithful to his word.
SPEAKER_01: God is completely faithful to his word.
SPEAKER_01: In Deuteronomy chapter 7 and verse 9, the word says, know therefore that the Lord your God, he is God.
SPEAKER_01: And then it makes this statement, the faithful God that keeps covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations.
SPEAKER_01: So one of the first things that the Holy Spirit points out to us about our Father God is that he's faithful.
SPEAKER_01: All right?
SPEAKER_01: He is faithful.
SPEAKER_01: He is the faithful God.
SPEAKER_01: Now, when we say that someone's faithful, a person is faithful, it's because they've proven it in some manner.
unknown: All right?
SPEAKER_01: The Bible doesn't just let us know God's faithful, it tells us in what manner he's faithful.
SPEAKER_01: Uh, if you're talking about a person, well, they have proven they're faithful.
SPEAKER_01: They're faithful to their spouse, they're faithful to their family, they're faithful to their job, they're faithful to their employer, to God, to the church, whatever the case may be.
SPEAKER_01: Their faithful actions have proven that they can be dependent upon.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: The word faithful, when you look at that word faithful, it carries the main idea that it carries is uh something that's steadfast, something that's sure, but also something that's verified.
SPEAKER_01: All right, so steadfast and sure and verified.
SPEAKER_01: It's it carries the idea of a pillar, a support structure, something that cannot be moved.
SPEAKER_01: That's why all the way through the Word of God, over and over again, God refers to Himself as your rock, your refuge, your high tower, your strong place.
SPEAKER_01: Uh strong tower.
SPEAKER_01: I Psalm 46 says he is our lofty, inaccessible place.
SPEAKER_01: All right, and abundantly available help in time of trouble.
SPEAKER_01: Now, we go through that because we have to understand that when it says God is faithful, he's faithful to something.
SPEAKER_01: All right, just to say someone is faithful, you know, over the years, pastoring churches, people will say, you know, that person's faithful.
SPEAKER_01: I see them every Sunday.
SPEAKER_01: Well, I don't mean they're faithful just because they're there, right?
SPEAKER_01: Now, it doesn't mean they're not as well.
SPEAKER_01: But just being there doesn't mean they're faithful.
SPEAKER_01: I've counseled marriages that have been together for 20 years and they're together, but now the one of them is being faithful.
SPEAKER_01: Because faithful means I'm dedicated just to you.
SPEAKER_01: I'm dedicated to the one, right?
SPEAKER_01: And so God is saying through the word that I am the faithful God.
SPEAKER_01: All right?
SPEAKER_01: And I'm faithful to something.
SPEAKER_01: Notice in Jeremiah chapter one, he says, I'm faithful to something.
SPEAKER_01: There's a reason the word can be dependent upon.
SPEAKER_01: We have to take time to teach it, we have to take time to see it.
SPEAKER_01: Because there's a reason that God's word can be dependent upon.
SPEAKER_01: And Jeremiah 1.11, and of course, Jeremiah had just received the word of the Lord for his life, and then he had seen the vision of an almond tree.
SPEAKER_01: And verse 12, it says, The Lord said unto me, You have well seen.
SPEAKER_01: Notice, for I will hasten my word to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: I will hasten my word to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: A number of different translations say, one translation says, I am watching my words and I'll cause them to happen.
SPEAKER_01: I'm watching my words and I will cause them to happen.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, I am intent upon my word to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: My intention, then, he's saying, is to perform my word.
SPEAKER_01: And so God never forgets he said something.
SPEAKER_01: Now I know that that sounds like, well, yeah, that's an elementary statement, Pastor.
SPEAKER_01: But but how many times have you dealt with people that had good intentions?
SPEAKER_01: And when you talk to them, they said, I, you know, I forgot that.
SPEAKER_01: I forgot I said that.
SPEAKER_01: I forgot all about that.
SPEAKER_01: God, you never go to God and Him say, I forgot all about that.
SPEAKER_01: Because if He says it, He's watching over it to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: All right?
SPEAKER_01: With the intention to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, I'm watching over my word to put it in effect.
SPEAKER_01: I'm watching over my word to put it into effect.
SPEAKER_01: So the fact that he's watching it indicates his faithfulness to it.
SPEAKER_01: If I said it, then my intention is that it will come to pass.
SPEAKER_01: If I declared it, then I'll cause it to happen.
SPEAKER_01: Now, here's my part, my simple part in all of this.
SPEAKER_01: Believe that he'll do that.
SPEAKER_01: That's my simple part.
SPEAKER_01: I have the easiest part of it.
SPEAKER_01: I do not make the word of God come to pass.
SPEAKER_01: I believe that God is watching his word to make it come to pass.
SPEAKER_01: My job is to believe that.
SPEAKER_01: And that's where people get hung up.
SPEAKER_01: Well, I have a part in it.
SPEAKER_01: I do have a part in it, believing it, declaring it.
SPEAKER_01: All right.
SPEAKER_01: Another translation says, I am on watch.
SPEAKER_01: Well, that's good that he's on watch, but then he finishes it to carry out my word.
SPEAKER_01: I'm on watch to carry out my word.
SPEAKER_01: And this verse doesn't have anything to do with healing, but it does have to do with God carrying out his word.
SPEAKER_01: And very often we use it in the context of vision.
SPEAKER_01: Habakkuk says that the Lord said uh uh concerning the vision, he said, Though it tarry, wait for it, because it will come to pass.
SPEAKER_01: So God's saying, I have said this to you, I've told you this is what's going to happen.
SPEAKER_01: Now wait for what I said to come to pass because it's going to.
SPEAKER_01: See, the simplicity is if God said it, then that's what's going to happen.
SPEAKER_01: And if I get all caught up in a lot of other things, then I move away from my faith in God's faithfulness where his word is concerned.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: And that's why, you know, we teach people, we teach people not to be moved by the symptoms, not to be moved by what you may be feeling, not to be moved by the report is no different.
SPEAKER_01: But here's what my focus is: what God said, that's what he's watching over to perform.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: So God never just says something.
SPEAKER_01: You got to strike those kind of phrases from your vocabulary.
SPEAKER_01: Well, I'm just saying.
SPEAKER_01: You're never just saying.
SPEAKER_01: If you're you're never just saying, God's never just saying.
SPEAKER_01: God, there's no verse in the Bible where God said, Wonder what I need to put there.
SPEAKER_01: Ah, let's throw this in there.
SPEAKER_01: That's not what he said.
SPEAKER_01: Every word of God, according to Scripture, every word of God is two things.
SPEAKER_01: It is tried and it is true.
SPEAKER_01: Every word of God.
SPEAKER_01: All right?
SPEAKER_01: In other words, it's been verified because he's faithful.
SPEAKER_01: If God only ever healed one other person in the history of the world, and you're you need healing, you could depend on him to heal you because he healed them.
SPEAKER_01: And if God doesn't, God doesn't do for this one and not do for this one.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: This is important.
SPEAKER_01: So God never just says something, he says it, and then he watches over it to see that it comes to pass.
SPEAKER_01: So right now, God's watching over his word to see to it that it comes to pass in your life, to see to it that it produces the results that you desire.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: In Isaiah 55.
SPEAKER_01: We're taking the time to look at God's faithfulness towards his word.
SPEAKER_01: And these are the things that you you do not want to just quote those verses.
SPEAKER_01: When somebody acts like they know something, that's a sure sign they don't.
SPEAKER_01: Because they gotta act like they know it.
SPEAKER_01: I want to look at the word.
SPEAKER_01: I remember uh brother Moore told a story one time that just blessed me, Keith Moore.
SPEAKER_01: And he said uh he was uh watching uh part of his job when he was at Rama uh Bible training center then, college now, but he said part of his job was uh to to go through uh video sermons of Brother Hagin and do some editing and get some other things out of there.
SPEAKER_01: And he said he was watching this uh uh message by Brother Hagin, and he said, Man, it was good.
SPEAKER_01: I was getting excited.
SPEAKER_01: He said, I was thinking, man, I've never heard this before.
SPEAKER_01: Wow, this is outstanding.
SPEAKER_01: And he said, all of a sudden the camera turned, and he said, I was right there on the front row.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: He was saying, Man, I've never heard this before.
SPEAKER_01: He heard the whole thing.
SPEAKER_01: Heard the whole thing.
SPEAKER_01: Well, what does that mean?
SPEAKER_01: Faith doesn't come by one hearing.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: I I I've got to hear it and hear it and hear it and hear it and hear it.
SPEAKER_01: And and so this that the reason this is important is I can know and I can have heard that God is watching over his word to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: But what does that mean to me when the circumstance in my health goes a direction that I don't think it should go or that it shouldn't go?
SPEAKER_01: What does that verse mean to me now?
SPEAKER_01: And here's the important thing.
SPEAKER_01: Is it just a verse that we in our circles quote?
SPEAKER_01: Or is it something that has become a part of me?
SPEAKER_01: Is it in my DNA?
SPEAKER_01: Do I literally believe?
SPEAKER_01: And does faith immediately rise up and say, I have no worries, because God's watching over his word to make sure that comes to pass?
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: And so that's what is so important about this in Isaiah 55 and verse 11.
SPEAKER_01: He's talking about his word, and he he mentions the rain coming down and the snow, and he said it doesn't return back, but it waters the earth and it and it fulfills its purpose, which is to make the earth bring forth and bud.
SPEAKER_01: He said in verse 11, so shall my word be.
SPEAKER_01: I remember years ago, decades ago now, that phrase just stood up to me, so shall my word be.
SPEAKER_01: You know, if if if you're just out talking about your yard to somebody, and maybe it's been kind of hot and dry, you'll just look at each other and say, Boy, we need rain.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because if we if we get rain, the yard will green up.
SPEAKER_01: Well, how do you know that?
SPEAKER_01: Because that's what rain does.
SPEAKER_01: It makes things grow, it makes things green.
SPEAKER_01: And he said, So shall my word be.
SPEAKER_01: That's how my word will be when it goes forth out of my mouth.
SPEAKER_01: It will not.
SPEAKER_01: See, especially, well, all the time, but especially if you're standing for something, you've got to go through these verses and underline circle phrases like that.
SPEAKER_01: It will not.
SPEAKER_01: It shall not.
SPEAKER_01: No stronger affirmation of truth in the entire Bible than the word shall.
SPEAKER_01: It shall not return to me void.
SPEAKER_01: And remember who's saying this?
SPEAKER_01: God's saying this.
SPEAKER_01: The faithful God that keeps covenant and mercy to a thousand generations.
SPEAKER_01: And he says, It shall not return to me void.
SPEAKER_01: Here is another phrase, but it shall.
SPEAKER_01: So there's something that the word shall not do, and there's something it shall do.
SPEAKER_01: It shall not return void, but it shall accomplish the thing that I sent it to.
SPEAKER_01: The amplified Bible says, That so shall my word be that goes out of my mouth.
SPEAKER_01: It will not return to me void, useless, or without result.
SPEAKER_01: It will not return to me without result, without accomplishing what I desire, and without succeeding in the matter that I send it to.
SPEAKER_01: So if you're standing on the word, how do I know that you're going to succeed in your stand for health?
SPEAKER_01: Because the word will not return without succeeding.
SPEAKER_01: It just won't.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: It just won't.
SPEAKER_01: And when you know that, the way you know that two plus two equals four, you got it.
SPEAKER_01: That's it.
SPEAKER_01: No, nobody can shake you, nobody can change you.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: The word is unchangeable.
SPEAKER_01: And as the word becomes a part of you, the more unchangeable you become.
SPEAKER_01: The stronger you become.
SPEAKER_01: We call it strong in faith.
SPEAKER_01: The word is the DNA of God.
SPEAKER_01: And as the word gets, because the Bible calls the word the seed of the living God.
SPEAKER_01: And so as the word of God gets in me, then the more like my Father I become.
SPEAKER_01: I become more faithful, more steadfast, and I become more sure of what his word said.
SPEAKER_01: And you get to the place where you realize that you cannot stay sick because the word of God has promised too much.
SPEAKER_01: And so it's got to change.
SPEAKER_01: Not if is it going to change, it has to.
SPEAKER_01: It has no choice.
SPEAKER_01: Another translation says, this is how it is with my words.
SPEAKER_01: They do not return to me without doing everything I send them to do.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: That's how it is with his word.
SPEAKER_01: They do not return without doing everything he sent them to do.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but this is still hanging on.
SPEAKER_01: Yeah, but the word did that, so it'll do that.
SPEAKER_01: It's moving it out of your body right now.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because the word was spoken.
SPEAKER_01: He said, It will not return to me without doing everything I sent it to do.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, My words make the things happen that I want to happen.
SPEAKER_01: They succeed in doing what I send them to do.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: So they do what God wants them to do, what God wants to see happen.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: And that's the importance of knowing the word, knowing what the word says, because now you know what God wants to happen.
SPEAKER_01: The number one problem that people have is they don't know what God wants to do in any area of life, not just healing, any area.
SPEAKER_01: People want to know the will of if if I was to hand out a piece of paper on a Sunday morning in our church and write, what's your biggest question about the things of God?
SPEAKER_01: Nine, probably 85-90%.
SPEAKER_01: How do I know God's will?
SPEAKER_01: How do I know what God wants me to do?
SPEAKER_01: How do I know God's will?
SPEAKER_01: Well, God's will is his word.
SPEAKER_01: You can't know God's will without his word.
SPEAKER_01: I've got to know what God said he would do in a given situation.
SPEAKER_01: And so if, and we're not going to go into these verses today, but so if I if I go uh to uh Isaiah 535, Matthew chapter 8, uh 1 Peter 2, 24, these verses that we know about he took stripes on his back with his stripes, we were healed.
SPEAKER_01: And we we very often say, if he did, then we are, and if we are, then we were, and and all these different things.
SPEAKER_01: And that's absolutely true.
SPEAKER_01: But understand, the first time we see that in the scripture is in the book of Isaiah.
SPEAKER_01: And it was prophetic about what Jesus was going to do.
SPEAKER_01: So if God said Jesus was going to take stripes on his back, and he did, if God said he was going to take our sin in his body and be nailed to a tree.
SPEAKER_01: And he did.
SPEAKER_01: He did that, right?
SPEAKER_01: Then the last part of that verse is sure as well.
SPEAKER_01: With those stripes, I was healed.
SPEAKER_01: See, I can't take part of that and say, boy, isn't that wonderful?
SPEAKER_01: This is when that happened.
SPEAKER_01: When he took stripes, that's when I was healed.
SPEAKER_01: And God's word is still hovering over that verse.
SPEAKER_01: Every time you go and you say, with your stripes, I am healed.
SPEAKER_01: That word's making it happen every time.
SPEAKER_01: Because God's watching over his word to perform it.
SPEAKER_01: And so if he, I wrote, I write in every one of my Bibles, if he did this, this is when I was healed.
SPEAKER_01: I got to keep it in my memory that I'm not trying to get something from God as much as I am just receiving what's already mine.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Glory be to Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: So God says his word will not return to him unfulfilled, but it will do what he sent it to do.
SPEAKER_01: Now here's why.
SPEAKER_01: God's word has the same characteristics of God Himself.
SPEAKER_01: You should give the same reverence to the written word as you do to God Himself.
SPEAKER_01: Because it's God's word.
SPEAKER_01: It's God's Word.
SPEAKER_01: If you've ever seen a historical document, if you've ever been in the presence, for instance, of the original Constitution or Declaration of Independence, it has an aura about it.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because that, man, that document set us free.
SPEAKER_01: That was the document that men knew they were going to give their life for if they signed it.
SPEAKER_01: And yet they signed it anyway.
SPEAKER_01: Well, it means something.
SPEAKER_01: It's a powerful document.
SPEAKER_01: When you're in the presence of the word of God, you're in the presence of God Himself.
SPEAKER_01: Because this is His Word.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: That's so important.
SPEAKER_01: And when I won't take the time to stay on this too long, but when people begin to question the Word of God, they are questioning God Himself.
SPEAKER_01: And they're doing the same thing that the children of Israel did.
SPEAKER_01: Can God, will God, does God?
SPEAKER_01: And he said, that's unbelief.
SPEAKER_01: If I see it in the Word, God said it.
SPEAKER_01: God cannot lie.
SPEAKER_01: Now see, so so the Word carries the same characteristics as God Himself.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: I remember, and again, this was something years ago, decades ago.
SPEAKER_01: And the Lord said to me one morning, I was uh seeking him about some things.
SPEAKER_01: And he said, Philip, I can be dependent, I can be dependent upon to do exactly what I said in my word.
SPEAKER_01: Now, again, that sounds elementary.
SPEAKER_01: But again, if I passed a sheet around to any number of people, what do you believe about this?
SPEAKER_01: That it's God's will to heal all the time.
SPEAKER_01: You'd probably get 30, 40 percent of people in spirit-filled churches that would say, well, if it's his will, well, how do I know his will?
SPEAKER_01: Because if I go to the church over here on this corner, they tell me it might or might not be God's will.
SPEAKER_01: Depending on any number of things.
SPEAKER_01: If he sees fit to do it, if you've learned your lesson, if he don't want you to learn something from it, then you go to the spirit-filled church down the road, and it's like, well, you know, you never know what God might do.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: And then you go to you go to good charismatic word and faith churches, and they base it all on what you're doing.
SPEAKER_01: Are you saying the word enough?
SPEAKER_01: Are you quoting it enough?
SPEAKER_01: Are you confessing enough?
SPEAKER_01: Have you said it 48 times today?
SPEAKER_01: Are you saying it 48 times three times a day?
SPEAKER_01: Because you, boy, you get, you know, you you you right?
SPEAKER_01: And and I look, I teach and preach.
SPEAKER_01: Your job is to get healed, and you need to be confessing the word.
SPEAKER_01: But here's the thing: God's not going to heal you because you said it 50 times today.
SPEAKER_01: He's gonna, he, he's already determined in his mindset for eternity, before the world ever was, I'm their healer.
SPEAKER_01: That will never change.
SPEAKER_01: So I settle it, that it's always God's will to heal me because he has eternally forever placed himself in the position of my healer.
SPEAKER_01: And then he said, I'm watching over what I said about being your healer, and it will not return to me empty, but it will accomplish what I said.
SPEAKER_01: And so the statement becomes more profound as I look at it because God can be dependent upon to do exactly what he said.
SPEAKER_01: Well, how do I know God's gonna do it?
SPEAKER_01: Can you find it in the Word?
SPEAKER_01: Yes, then that He'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: He'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: The Bible says that we are to be imitators of God as what?
SPEAKER_01: Dear children.
SPEAKER_01: That word, dear children, little children.
SPEAKER_01: Jesus said that to enter the kingdom of God, God's system, God's way of doing and being right, that you had to become like a little child.
SPEAKER_01: How are little children?
SPEAKER_01: You know what I hate about children growing up?
SPEAKER_01: They lose the wonder.
SPEAKER_01: They lose the wonder of life.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: I mean, all that, ooh, ah, and they right, and they lose that wonder.
SPEAKER_01: If you tell a little child three or four years old, if you tell them anything, they they believe you.
SPEAKER_01: That's it.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: If you tell them you're their daddy and you tell them I'm the strongest man in the world, they tell everybody my dad is the strongest man in the world.
SPEAKER_01: Well, how do you know that?
SPEAKER_01: Because he said so.
SPEAKER_01: Well, obviously he's not.
SPEAKER_01: But to them he is.
SPEAKER_01: Because why?
SPEAKER_01: Daddy said it.
SPEAKER_01: Don't ever lose your wonder at the word of God.
SPEAKER_01: See, I didn't finish my story.
SPEAKER_01: When Brother Moore was talking about that, he said what Brother Hagin was teaching on was not losing the excitement of the Word of God, not losing that vibrancy that the Word of God produces in you.
SPEAKER_01: What I find very often that happens with people is, especially in certain circles, if you come out and you say, all right, let's turn over to this verse, I've watched people, they don't even turn over to the verse because they figure they know it.
SPEAKER_01: Well, you can quote something out of your head that your spirit has no revelation of.
SPEAKER_01: And so therefore, it's not doing you any good.
SPEAKER_01: Because it's got to be out of my spirit.
SPEAKER_01: And so when he says in Isaiah 55, 11, this is how my word will be.
SPEAKER_01: It will not return to me empty.
SPEAKER_01: That's not just something I'm quoting.
SPEAKER_01: That's that I'm expecting God to do that because God's word has the same characteristics of himself.
SPEAKER_01: If God said it, it will happen.
SPEAKER_01: Now, let's look at Numbers 23.
SPEAKER_01: We're going to get to some verses about healing, but we got to set this direction.
SPEAKER_01: Numbers 23.
SPEAKER_01: And um verse 19.
SPEAKER_01: And of course, this is when uh Balak had hired the prophet Balaam to curse Israel.
SPEAKER_01: And he tried.
SPEAKER_01: But verse 19 says, God is not a man that he should lie, or the son of man that he should repent, has he said it, and shall he not do it, has he spoken and shall he not make it good?
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: One translation says, When he gives his word, does he not perform it?
SPEAKER_01: Or does he promise and not fulfill it?
SPEAKER_01: Well, the answer is no.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, Is he one to speak and not act?
SPEAKER_01: To decree and not fulfill?
SPEAKER_01: So God doesn't speak and not act.
SPEAKER_01: He doesn't say it and then not do it.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, He does not speak words that are not true.
SPEAKER_01: Now, if you ask the nominal Christian, does God speak words that are not true?
SPEAKER_01: They'll say, Oh no, no, he doesn't.
SPEAKER_01: Well, what about this verse right here?
SPEAKER_01: He took our uh pain and carried our diseases, and with his stripes we're healed.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, God will heal if it's his will.
SPEAKER_01: They just said that God can speak words that are not true.
SPEAKER_01: You see what I'm saying?
SPEAKER_01: It's with the word and with the things of God, it's black and white.
SPEAKER_01: There's no gray areas.
SPEAKER_01: Now there can be reasons why that black and white word is not working to its full potential, right?
SPEAKER_01: But the way you solve that is you go to God and you say very plainly, I know that you cannot lie.
SPEAKER_01: I know your word cannot lie.
SPEAKER_01: So you're not the problem.
SPEAKER_01: The word's not the problem.
SPEAKER_01: Show me where the problem is.
SPEAKER_01: It may or may not be you.
SPEAKER_01: But but the issue is we gotta we gotta decide somebody here is perfect.
SPEAKER_01: And that's the word and God.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: I heard a minister preaching one time, and I know what he was trying to do.
SPEAKER_01: He was trying to make people not be under condemnation.
SPEAKER_01: And he said, you know, I hear preachers say, you know, that that there's nothing wrong with the word, nothing wrong with God.
SPEAKER_01: So when things aren't happening, I need to look at myself, and you know, that makes people be condemned and all this stuff.
SPEAKER_01: No, it doesn't.
SPEAKER_01: It brings them back to this is what the issue is.
SPEAKER_01: If God's word is perfect and God is perfect, the only imperfect person in that equation is me.
SPEAKER_01: And so I've got to determine, right?
SPEAKER_01: I've got to hold God's word up to him and let him know I believe what you said.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: When God gives his word, he performs it.
SPEAKER_01: So this is describing the faithfulness God has to his word.
SPEAKER_01: If he said it, he'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: Now there are people in my life that are so true to their word, somebody will come to me and they'll say, Well, so-and-so said they were going to do this.
SPEAKER_01: And I've said to them, if he said it, he'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: That's just it.
SPEAKER_01: I had somebody uh tell me, so-and-so called them and said uh that I myself had said I would do something.
SPEAKER_01: They were calling to see what this person thought.
SPEAKER_01: And the person on the it blessed me so much.
SPEAKER_01: The person on the other end of the phone said, I told him if Philip said it, he'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: Man, that blessed me.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because I want to be more like my father.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: That's what we mean when we say God has bound himself to his word.
SPEAKER_01: That's what's meant by that phrase.
SPEAKER_01: Those are phrases that are kind of tossed around.
SPEAKER_01: But when you say God is bound to his word, what does that mean?
SPEAKER_01: If God said it, he'll do it.
SPEAKER_01: He's tied to it, he's bound to it.
SPEAKER_01: He cannot change that.
SPEAKER_01: Anything God has said is forever his will.
SPEAKER_01: Forever and always his will.
SPEAKER_01: In Exodus 15.
SPEAKER_01: And uh verse 26.
SPEAKER_01: We've read this numerous times, but because we're looking at his faithfulness to his word, he said, if you will diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord your God and do what is right in his sight, and give ear to his commandments and keep all of his statutes, I will not allow any of these diseases on you that I have allowed upon the Egyptians.
SPEAKER_01: For I am the Lord that healeth thee.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: The amplified Bible says, I will remove, or excuse me, I am the Lord who heals you.
SPEAKER_01: I am the Lord who heals you.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, I'm the Lord your healer.
SPEAKER_01: And yet another says, For I am the Lord, and it's health that I bring you.
SPEAKER_01: Now notice, this is not someone quoting God.
SPEAKER_01: This is God directly speaking to these people, his covenant people.
SPEAKER_01: The covenant people that we were brought into the covenant with.
SPEAKER_01: And he says, Notice, I am the Lord that heals you.
SPEAKER_01: So we see something right away that then for God to have anything to do with bringing sickness would mean he's unfaithful to these statements.
SPEAKER_01: If God makes sick, he's unfaithful to this.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: And people say, well, I don't believe God will make me sick, but why hadn't he healed me?
SPEAKER_01: Well, it's the same thing.
SPEAKER_01: You're either accusing God, that that person's either accusing God of making them sick or accusing the him of not healing them.
SPEAKER_01: Same thing.
SPEAKER_01: If God made you sick, he didn't heal you.
SPEAKER_01: If he hasn't healed you, he's okay with you being sick.
SPEAKER_01: He's not okay with either one of them.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Exodus 23.
SPEAKER_01: And verse 25.
SPEAKER_01: It says, You will serve the Lord your God, and he will bless your bread and water, and I will take sickness away from the midst of you.
SPEAKER_01: The Amplified Bible says, I will remove sickness from among you.
SPEAKER_01: Another translation, the Brown Krueger translation says, I will take all sickness away from the midst of you.
SPEAKER_01: And yet another is I will free you.
SPEAKER_01: Moffat says, I will free you from disease.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: So what's my job?
SPEAKER_01: Let him take it.
SPEAKER_01: See, here's the the thing.
SPEAKER_01: I have to be faithful to God's word as well.
SPEAKER_01: I have to be as faithful to God's word as God is to his word.
SPEAKER_01: Have to.
SPEAKER_01: God doesn't question his word.
SPEAKER_01: Never.
SPEAKER_01: Now that sounds simple again, but God doesn't question his word.
SPEAKER_01: So we don't question his word.
SPEAKER_01: Basics of healing.
SPEAKER_01: God's faithful to his word.
SPEAKER_01: If I don't know anything else in the beginning, if God said it and God cannot lie, now see that should that should imprint my spirit.
SPEAKER_01: If God cannot lie, even a person that has no knowledge about the word of God, if they understand God cannot lie, then it impacts everything they believe about what God said.
SPEAKER_01: They have to be taught to doubt God's word.
SPEAKER_01: Everybody has to be taught to doubt God's word.
SPEAKER_01: Now, why would somebody teach people to doubt God's word?
SPEAKER_01: Tradition, religion, any number of things, getting off the main thing, onto peripheral things.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: You know, the the group I was raised in, they couldn't talk about, they couldn't consistently talk about anything because they had to get back over here on their hobby horses about their religious dogma.
SPEAKER_01: They couldn't teach about the goodness of God consistently because they had to teach about how women shouldn't wear makeup.
SPEAKER_01: I mean, dear God, you've got to keep your priorities in line.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's not a priority to teach that God's good.
SPEAKER_01: Priority is to make sure women aren't wearing makeup.
SPEAKER_01: That's the priority now.
SPEAKER_01: Now you know I'm joking.
SPEAKER_01: I'm being facetious.
SPEAKER_01: As Lily would say, I am being sarcastic.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: I mean, you gotta you gotta teach on britches, you gotta teach on pants.
SPEAKER_01: You can't have nobody wearing things, women wearing things that pertain to a man.
SPEAKER_01: And you know, I've never seen a man in women's pants.
SPEAKER_01: Never seen a man wearing a woman's shirt.
SPEAKER_01: Can't do it.
SPEAKER_01: They're different, they fit different, they're cut different, the buttons are on the wrong side.
SPEAKER_01: You go, you go to Dillard's, there's the women's section and the men's section.
SPEAKER_01: And I've never seen anybody that really understood they were a man shopping in the men's in the women's section.
SPEAKER_01: Because it just won't work.
SPEAKER_01: Now you know that.
SPEAKER_01: But here's my point.
SPEAKER_01: They could not teach the real things about God because they had to get into their dogma.
SPEAKER_01: Right?
SPEAKER_01: So to so so to teach the real things about God, what God really would do, they couldn't do it because it was all in their dogma.
SPEAKER_01: There are people that can't teach the real things about God because they got to convince you that those tongues are of the devil.
SPEAKER_01: Ain't no tongues speaking around here now.
SPEAKER_01: And so how how can you teach that God will do what he said that he would do when he took, maybe he took that gift away?
SPEAKER_01: He took that away.
SPEAKER_01: That was for then, but it's not for now.
SPEAKER_01: Now, what else is for then and not now?
SPEAKER_01: If one word of God has passed away, maybe it's all passed away.
SPEAKER_01: Maybe we're fooling ourselves.
SPEAKER_01: Maybe this is just a comic book.
SPEAKER_01: Your desire, your idea about the word of God has to be it is absolutely true.
SPEAKER_01: Every chapter, every verse, every line, it's anointed by God and it cannot change.
SPEAKER_01: Because if that's not your mindset, you're on a slippery slope.
SPEAKER_01: Somebody had to teach that person not to believe God.
SPEAKER_01: Every new believer, that should be the first verse that they learn.
SPEAKER_01: It's Titus 1, 2.
SPEAKER_01: God cannot lie.
SPEAKER_01: That's the first verse they should learn.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, they need to learn God loves them.
SPEAKER_01: If they don't know God won't lie, cannot lie, they may not believe God loves them.
SPEAKER_01: Because there are people out there that are teaching, preaching wrong things.
SPEAKER_01: They're saying that God loves you more the more perfect you are.
SPEAKER_01: And if you do this and if you do that, and if you do this, God will extend his hand to you, even though the Bible says that God loved me and saved me when I was of absolutely no use to him whatsoever.
SPEAKER_01: God proved his love towards me, that when I was still in sin, he sent Jesus to die for me.
SPEAKER_01: So God didn't wait for you to clean up, God didn't wait for you to get everything right to save you.
SPEAKER_01: Why would God wait for you to clean up and get everything right to heal you?
SPEAKER_01: Why would God make sure every T is dotted and every T, every T is crossed and every I is dotted to heal you?
SPEAKER_01: He will not do that.
SPEAKER_01: Because in his core, at the core of who God is, he's our healer.
SPEAKER_01: And he can't help it.
SPEAKER_01: He cannot be anything else.
SPEAKER_01: God cannot be something that his word says he is not, and he cannot fail to be something that the word says he is.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: That's exciting.
SPEAKER_01: So when God gives his word, he performs it.
SPEAKER_01: He's bound to it.
SPEAKER_01: And anything that God has said is forever his will.
SPEAKER_01: Exodus 15.
SPEAKER_01: We were there a moment ago.
SPEAKER_01: But remember verse 26?
SPEAKER_01: He said, I'm the Lord, your healer.
SPEAKER_01: I'm the Lord who heals you.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Now, Deuteronomy 7.
SPEAKER_01: Everything that God has promised you, everything that you're believing God for, it's it's personal to you.
SPEAKER_01: Someone else may be, you've got to approach the word that way.
SPEAKER_01: God's word is for everybody, for all people.
SPEAKER_01: For all time, anywhere.
SPEAKER_01: But every verse is personal to me.
SPEAKER_01: Every verse.
SPEAKER_01: I know it's to everybody, but I don't read this.
SPEAKER_01: I do not read this Bible like it was written to Andre.
SPEAKER_01: I read this Bible like it was written to Philip.
SPEAKER_01: I know it was written to Andre.
SPEAKER_01: I know it was written for him.
SPEAKER_01: But in every one of my Bibles, every one of them, I write in the front of my Bible.
SPEAKER_01: I'll read it to you.
SPEAKER_01: Because it's important.
SPEAKER_01: This is my Bible.
SPEAKER_01: This is God speaking to me.
SPEAKER_01: This is my Bible.
SPEAKER_01: Genesis chapter 1, verse 1, I write in every Bible.
SPEAKER_01: Dear Philip.
SPEAKER_01: Revelation 22, I write, love Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because this is his letter to me.
SPEAKER_01: This is the Father's letter to me.
SPEAKER_01: Your faith, which is personal, will always work at a higher level when you look at the things of God as personal to you.
SPEAKER_01: I am the Lord that heals Philip.
SPEAKER_01: I will take sickness and disease from Philip's midst.
SPEAKER_01: I took stripes on my back, and with my stripes, Philip was healed.
SPEAKER_01: Now, yes, he healed everybody that way, and that's his will for everybody.
SPEAKER_01: But this is personal to me.
SPEAKER_01: In Deuteronomy 7 and 15, it says, The Lord will take away from you all sickness, and will allow none of the evil diseases of Egypt that you know on you, but will lay them on all them that hate you.
SPEAKER_01: Will allow them.
SPEAKER_01: In other words.
SPEAKER_01: But here's the thing: Egypt is always a type of the world.
SPEAKER_01: All throughout the word, it's a type of the world.
SPEAKER_01: And notice, it's the evil diseases of the world, not of us.
SPEAKER_01: So what does that mean?
SPEAKER_01: I can live above them.
SPEAKER_01: I can live free from them.
SPEAKER_01: Why?
SPEAKER_01: Because he said, He said, I will not allow them on you.
SPEAKER_01: I'll take them away.
SPEAKER_01: One translation says, and the Lord will take away from you all sickness.
SPEAKER_01: Another says, Jehovah will keep every disease away from you.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Now, here's the thing: if you read something like that and you have questions, just determine that you're going to put your faith in that.
SPEAKER_01: Start answering everything that comes up.
SPEAKER_01: When they say, ah, there's this parasite out there, not for me, it's been taken away.
SPEAKER_01: That's under the curse.
SPEAKER_01: Folks, here in healing school, not you, but you'd be surprised how many people never give voice to the word when they hear the voice of the curse.
SPEAKER_01: They never give voice to the word.
SPEAKER_01: They just sit there and let those words go.
SPEAKER_01: Silence is agreement.
SPEAKER_01: When they say a parasite's out there and it's attacking this, and you just sit there and go, oh, my, my, my.
SPEAKER_01: Well, I didn't claim it.
SPEAKER_01: You don't have to claim it.
SPEAKER_01: You don't have to claim the curse.
SPEAKER_01: The curse is working.
SPEAKER_01: What do you have to claim and decree?
SPEAKER_01: I'm redeemed from it in the name of Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: You recognize it and you're redeemed from it.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: Say it out loud.
SPEAKER_01: I recognize the curse and I'm redeemed from it in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, glory to God.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: See, this is important.
SPEAKER_01: Because, well, let me hurry.
SPEAKER_01: But this is important because what people say, if somebody says something, it doesn't necessarily mean it's going to happen in your life.
SPEAKER_01: But if you don't countermand it, if you don't counteract it with your words, you've not taken authority over it.
SPEAKER_01: Jesus did not say that whatever should be bound on earth is bound in heaven.
SPEAKER_01: And whatever should be loose on earth is loosed in heaven.
SPEAKER_01: He said, whatever you bind on the earth will be bound in heaven.
SPEAKER_01: And whatever you loose on the earth will be loosed in heaven.
SPEAKER_01: You can't go through life just saying, well, you know, I'm not, I'm, I'm fine, everything's great.
SPEAKER_01: The Lord loves me and everything's fine.
SPEAKER_01: And we're all good.
SPEAKER_01: We're just going to keep looking up and it's going to be alright.
SPEAKER_01: Not if I'm not saying it.
SPEAKER_01: That's why we say, nope, the Lord will take sickness from my midst.
SPEAKER_01: It'll not come on me.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: And when you're buying things, you know, at the grocery store, and people say, Oh, well, I'd be afraid to buy that.
SPEAKER_01: Then don't do it.
SPEAKER_01: Don't buy them.
SPEAKER_01: I'm okay.
SPEAKER_01: He said he'd bless my bread and water.
unknown: Right?
SPEAKER_01: And take sickness from the midst of me.
SPEAKER_01: This is important.
SPEAKER_01: That's why we pray over our food.
SPEAKER_01: Lord, you're going to bless our bread and water and take sickness from our midst.
SPEAKER_01: Now, if you don't want to buy them, whatever it is, don't buy them.
SPEAKER_01: Don't do that.
SPEAKER_01: But it's personal to you.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Well, one last verse.
SPEAKER_01: You got time?
SPEAKER_01: Psalm 89.
SPEAKER_01: I'm actually running ahead of schedule.
SPEAKER_01: When you make that decision, this is personal to me.
SPEAKER_01: That was one of the things all those decades ago when the Lord started getting us in the Word of God was I had, I knew I've got to spend time in the Word to the point that it's real to me.
SPEAKER_01: And so this is God speaking to me.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: And so the answer in everything to this day, if we're talking about a certain situation, my wife or I, one, eventually we're going to say, What does the word say?
SPEAKER_01: Because that's what we're going to stand on.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: When Liliana will come to us, we're training her up.
SPEAKER_01: She'll come to us and say, Well, I'm having this problem.
SPEAKER_01: And I'll take her and I'll get the word.
SPEAKER_01: And I'll say, Now let's look at what the word says.
SPEAKER_01: What does the word say about this?
SPEAKER_01: We were talking about something last night.
SPEAKER_01: We were coming up with a uh, I'm not telling you all of our business, but we were coming up with a uh a family code word, right?
SPEAKER_01: Uh, you know, the day in days and age we live in, Lily and I went to a deal the other night at uh Simmons Bank Arena, and uh we uh we had uh she had to wait on me and I was waiting on her, different things.
SPEAKER_01: And so we we need a code word, you know, because people, nefarious people and different things.
SPEAKER_01: I'm making a point.
SPEAKER_01: So we were we were talking about that, and uh, and of course, mom being a good mom, she was like, you know, now we're not we're not uh we're not promoting fear or anything like that.
SPEAKER_01: And Lily goes, Well, I'm not afraid of anything, I'm a Christian.
SPEAKER_01: All right, yeah, we got that, praise God.
SPEAKER_01: So, right?
SPEAKER_01: We're not we're not afraid, we're not doing things because we're afraid, we're doing things because it's the right thing to do.
SPEAKER_01: Oh, hallelujah! And so, what does the word say?
SPEAKER_01: And so that's that's what it always comes back to.
SPEAKER_01: What does the word say?
SPEAKER_01: You know, if you have a contract, and and and I've had to do this with people, unfortunately, and they they would try to wiggle out of their contract, and I would have to go to them.
SPEAKER_01: You know, a lot of times it won't work on the phone.
SPEAKER_01: You got to go to them and take your contract and say, now look, this is what the contract says.
SPEAKER_01: Well, now are you gonna keep your word?
SPEAKER_01: Because that's what it comes back to.
SPEAKER_01: Your father said, put me in remembrance of my contract.
SPEAKER_01: Let's reason together.
SPEAKER_01: Bring your contract in.
SPEAKER_01: Let's look at it.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Well, he made up the contract, he put the terms and conditions in it.
SPEAKER_01: I just agreed to it.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: Psalm 89 and 34.
SPEAKER_01: This again is God speaking.
SPEAKER_01: Notice what he says: My covenant I will not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
SPEAKER_01: In other words, I will not change the word I have spoken.
SPEAKER_01: And notice how he uses it in terms of covenant.
SPEAKER_01: A covenant, I will not break my covenant.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Now, if God won't break it, God's not going to break what he said.
SPEAKER_01: He won't even alter, he won't change what's gone out of his lips.
SPEAKER_01: He'll never say, Well, you know, I don't use sickness and disease, except in your case.
SPEAKER_01: Except in this one situation.
SPEAKER_01: Nope.
SPEAKER_01: Now we know that.
SPEAKER_01: But how do I know then that I'm healed?
SPEAKER_01: God won't alter what he said.
SPEAKER_01: He just won't.
SPEAKER_01: He won't alter it, he won't change it.
SPEAKER_01: I was uh dealing with a family that uh a loved one had moved to heaven, and uh of course they were, I don't say remarkably, anybody on the word is going to respond that way, but they were wonderfully at peace and at ease, and and I was talking with the uh the husband of the person that had moved to heaven, and here here's here's the thing.
SPEAKER_01: When you when you take a situation like that, the Bible says in the presence of the Lord there is fullness of joy.
SPEAKER_01: So no one on earth has ever had full joy, but in his presence, there's fullness of joy.
SPEAKER_01: So in that circumstance, what does the word say?
SPEAKER_01: That person's with Jesus, they're in full joy.
SPEAKER_01: How could I ever be sad when they're experiencing fullness of joy?
SPEAKER_01: Full to complete, absolute fullness of joy.
SPEAKER_01: Wouldn't come back if you had a billion dollars to give them.
SPEAKER_01: Amen.
SPEAKER_01: See what does the word say?
SPEAKER_01: So if God won't alter what he said in his word, he won't change his mind.
SPEAKER_01: Then my job is to be as steadfast on the word as he is.
SPEAKER_01: This is what the word says.
SPEAKER_01: That a lot of times that's your answer.
SPEAKER_01: When someone says, How do you know you're healed?
SPEAKER_01: Because the word says.
SPEAKER_01: Folks, you don't have to, you do not have to explain to any unbelieving person why you believe what you believe.
SPEAKER_01: You don't, you don't have to.
SPEAKER_01: Well, why do you believe you're healed?
SPEAKER_01: I mean, what would convince you that you're healed?
SPEAKER_01: And they'll use all these philosophical, uh, homilytical, hermeneutical, stupid things to try to get you to explain why you believe you're healed.
SPEAKER_01: They don't believe nothing.
SPEAKER_01: They don't believe not one thing about the word of God.
SPEAKER_01: And you got believers trying to explain to them why they believe.
SPEAKER_01: I have time for that.
SPEAKER_01: I don't have time for that.
SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna take the word of the living God and try and lay it out on the ground in front of some old unbelieving somebody that doesn't believe anything anyway.
SPEAKER_01: You are healed because God's word says you're healed.
SPEAKER_01: And the proof of the pudding's in the eating.
SPEAKER_01: And so the results will be seen to everybody.
SPEAKER_01: The results will be known to every person that's known what you're going through.
SPEAKER_01: They'll see the results, they'll see the evidence, it'll be known, and God will get the glory, and then they have a choice to make whether they believe it was God or not.
SPEAKER_01: Hallelujah.
SPEAKER_01: Father, thank you today.
SPEAKER_01: Thank you for the manifestation of your word in our life.
SPEAKER_01: Thank you for the manifestation of your healing word, your healing power, your healing anointing, Father.
SPEAKER_01: I thank you, Lord.
SPEAKER_01: Father, I just speak over every person here the healing word.
SPEAKER_01: I speak over those that are watching online, Father.
SPEAKER_01: Lord, I speak to all of those uh organ issues, Father.
SPEAKER_01: I speak to cirrhosis of the liver to be cleared up.
SPEAKER_01: I speak for a reversal of that disease in the name of Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: Father, I thank you that the kit that the liver softens.
SPEAKER_01: I thank you that the liver is pliable.
SPEAKER_01: I thank you that the liver is clean in the name of Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: And I thank you, Father, for a reversal of that disease.
SPEAKER_01: Father, I thank you for the reversal of heart disease in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_01: I thank you for the reversal, Father, of kidney disease in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_01: It shall not continue to encroach.
SPEAKER_01: Father, you made those kidneys and you made that liver and you made that heart.
SPEAKER_01: And Father, even what we call a reversal is not a reversal as much as it is a progression of the healing power of God.
SPEAKER_01: And so we thank you that the healing power of God progresses and wins over sickness and disease every time.
SPEAKER_01: There is no sickness or disease that can stand under the weight, the power, the anointing, the presence of the living word of God.
SPEAKER_01: And so, Father, we thank you for it in the name of Jesus.
SPEAKER_01: Thank you for manifesting yourself in the lives of your people.
SPEAKER_01: And as we go today, Father, we thank you that we are healed and we are well and we are whole and we are strong in the Lord and in the power of his might.
SPEAKER_01: In Jesus' precious name, amen and amen.
SPEAKER_01: Well, we'll be here tomorrow night ministering the word.
