yourself nothing's gonna stop the Word of God going out of my heart and blessing others that's the biggest lie the enemy does is turns you in word making you focus on your own problems you see the bigger problem the bigger scheme here is that you put your eyes on yourself with the things that you're going through when God says all you gotta do is rise up and say write on You Lord and you're not just defeating the enemy in your life you're causing the triumph of the to go forth from your life changing the atmosphere around you you are called and chosen for greater things Amen Island here

his sheep and we know his voice but sometimes it's hard to tune into the voice of God am i right this book will help you to attune your ear to the voice of God so that you can get a word and you can

unpacking this huge topic of healing and Carly and I we were so excited this morning as we learned that about 90% of us who are here today are here for the very first time in the healing is here conference so can we just say thank you to the Lord for that one amen 90% of first time people here and yesterday how about when Andrew gave the call for baptism in the Holy Ghost Wow hundreds of people came forward and what a blessing it is to see these lives being changed and you know what it's only Wednesday I know me too I did you see the pause there just for me yeah yeah so what we're saying is as Andrew would say God never serves dessert first the best is yet to come amen and so I hope that as we go through the day today that you will start making some new friends meet some other people who are also in a healing journey and just really immerse yourself in what God is doing this week because it is really special what's happening here and we recognize that and we're just so excited that you are here and a part of it and I wanted to say to all of our people online wherever you are joining us from all around the world we're just so grateful that you are a part of this event as well even though you couldn't physically be here we know that you're with us we love you and we thank you so much for being a part of it and you know what Psalm 107 verse 20 says he sent His Word and healed them and we believe God's sending his word to write where you are and healing you today as well so why not today somebody a man why not today I was watching some of the facebook comments actually from yesterday morning yes in fact do we have some praise report we do and I know that somebody on Facebook commented that they they were healed in their breathing and they they just took their healing by faith and so they run up and down the stairs and they were healed see so even if you're watching online you can type in your testimony give us your praise report and we will read them out in fact I've got some here from people that were actually physically here and there's this loads of Testament so we'll see and I love for the caller to read these out because of her beautiful English accent but again if anyone needs an interpretation just see me afterwards the miracles in the hearing Daniel okay pray for you there you go this this person had MS and they weren't able to walk this if they've been in a wheelchair for 10 years and they got up and started walking for the first time come on talking about spine injuries you've been in an accident and he says he's spine realigned the joy the Lord came upon him and now he's pain-free Chris says his hip was broken when he was three years old had little mobility but now he's healed he could move his leg straight out and he could never do that before so now he's that he's got my ability back in his legs is able to extend it amen hip he's broken yeah it is broken done awesome three years old yeah Wow that's when it happened that's when it happened so I don't know how old he is now that's a long time we're living with an injury right amen but now he's healed this person had hearing loss and man I'm gonna have to get word knowledge on the they've written in tongues hang on says hearing loss left ear right ear I think they're still there hopefully um but now hearings return to both use hallelujah they said they had them from from childhood they had their feet curved inward sounds like a club feet and after pray they straightened right out problem this person has stage four cancer in their lungs and now they they and they started declaring they will live and not die and declare what God has done in their life and they can take deep breaths amen they believe that counting throughs gold awesome amen gone and this person says they had a recent accident had a total hip replacement and was not they were in pain okay but pray for me this is not as easy as it looks okay all pain was gone their hips came back into alignment now they're walking freely with no pain and no pain or crying amen awesome amen yeah mobility lots of mobility stuff yeah and baby had a lung and a heart problems baby settle down after prayer and his breathing better frozen shoulder pain in the knees Diabetes digestive system this person to the laundry list Wow but now they're able to move their shoulders and their pain in their knees is gone they're doing good I believe all the other things gone to a men and women from somewhere over brought another country has advanced cancer in it bones and somewhere else has lots of pain bullet but she's believing for a healing after after prayer the pain and got less and says joy the Lord felt a lot of heat in their body she's healed amen [Laughter] there's more in here but lots of we've got tremors of gone pains have gone and knees haven't gone but the pains gone in them seeing ogen no over this you know you gotta be careful what you pray for I'm just saying your words an apple right amen God has been busy doing stuff setting people free you know what's amazing about all these various names that were reading out this morning is that I remember the very first year that we started the healing school back in 2011 we had somebody come to us and said okay yeah arthritis you know whatever but God can't heal and they would fill in the blank you know God can't heal and in this particular blank they filled in was aids well we just happen to have one of our students from Africa who was attending that year who had just been healed of AIDS in the room amen and so here's what's exciting when you begin to read out these testimonies we begin to just really see once again the majesty of God how he is the name above every name that's given us Authority in that name and there is no name that is higher than the name of Jesus and so we love celebrating the fact that it is a finished work Amen it's amazing what happens when we start declaring what God says about a situation over a life rather than just you know expressing every ache every pain confusing every negative thing when we start to get our confession in line with the Word of God you know life and death or in our tongue yeah that's how powerful our words are and these people you know you're I'm trying to pick out from these testimony some of them are kind of long and trying to pick out the highlights is that you we can we can get through them but there's a common theme in those Testaments people have started declaring God's finish work in their life they've studied it declaring the end from the beginning rather than only focusing on what they see now they're focusing on the arts are not the problem yeah that's good and you know what we will have whatever we say Amen we want to speak to them and we if we can if we can say it we can see it that's it I've got a couple of teaching well one teaching here and then a CVO on a giveaway as well and before we get into teaching today but this subject of speaking in accordance to the Word of God is so powerful and there's a teaching series that we we just filmed Ashton and I and this is a ten part video and audio lesson but it's called manifesting miracles you have a say in what you see you know oftentimes people speak the Word of God and if they don't see an instantaneous manifestation I think oh no no what he's not working right right yeah but we don't realize sometimes is that the word is always working it's always working always working you know we said this yesterday that the word is a seed and it's seeds produce after their own kind so if we just leave the seeds in the ground it's gonna bear fruit and so when we speak the Word of God we can have absolute confidence as we start declaring the goodness of God over our life his promises those words immediately are going to work sometimes in areas that we cannot see in our body yeah and sometimes that's why there is a short period of time before we see what we have spoken out actually manifest yeah so this teaching manifesting because I believe it's going to help somebody who can help me with this one oh she's on it and then this one Daniel yeah and so downstairs we've also got a couple CDs and these are also available on iTunes and all of the you know media platforms that are digital but this particular album I wanted to highlight because it's called healing is here and this is from Karis worship and the entire project is a journey from the start of the CD all the way to the last song about healing I share scriptures in between the songs and this is not like a meditative solo piano type project this will take you from hem of His garment which Jamie sang last night so it kind of starts off almost with a Broadway kind of epic you feel it actually really got me I had to pull my car over and stop driving yeah first time Carly put this in her car stereo I mean she was so moved she literally had to pull off the road I'm telling you this is where it starts and goes all the way through and you'll have moments the MRI song is not on a project yet it's brand-new it's coming soon but a couple of songs that I wrote on this is you want me well amen and I tell you what when you're in the struggle of a storm of any kind where physical symptoms are trying to come against your body this is a great way to get your praise on amen so do it right gay is here worship CD come on Matt bless somebody with that this morning would you amen you know probably as we're talking about this and all of these people who have received healing all these people who are you know saying goodbye to all those symptoms and saying I'm not gonna identify with them anymore I'm thinking about how Jesus is our healer you know he is the one who did what needed to be done and so on the cross you know this is so powerful that we often miss it when Jesus said it is finished so the fact that we can rest now in an already finished work puts us in a whole different position than trying to get God to show up and do something when in reality he's already here and he's already done everything that needs to be done for us to receive what he is provided so we like to say it this way what grace has provided faith can receive amen amen and I want us to look here at Matthew you know this scripture most of you do anyway but out of Matthew chapter 8 and verse 17 and we're gonna get into a little bit of this this morning Carly and I as we're praying we just really felt like we needed to spend some time talking about how the Lord is our healer and what's actually been provided for us you know one of the things that we learned yesterday was you know we have people from all different kinds of walks that are here this week you know one person said what's better Buddha or Jesus so I mean there's all kinds of different people who are here on different journeys and we want it absolutely clear that there is only one way and his name is Jesus he is the truth the life and the way no man comes to the Father except by him amen but look at this quoting out of Isaiah chapter 53 the great chapter about healing and Isaiah 53 is especially verses one through five but Jesus is talking about this here and yeah let's do it who has revealed our or believed our report okay so there's number one when the Lord gives you a report are you gonna believe that above the doctor's report you got a choice to make who are you gonna believe how are you gonna identify with that situation are you gonna believe and identify with what is being said medically greater than what's being said by the Lord's report spiritually so who has believed our report and whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed first two four speaking of Jesus he will grow up before him as a tender plant out of root out of dry ground has no form or comeliness when we see him that there is no beauty that we should desire him he is despised and rejected of men a man of sorrows acquainted with grief and we hid as it were our faces from him he was despised and we did not esteem him surely hmm I love that for sure everybody stays for sure sure yeah like my grandkids would be like first sure you know surely pretty good sure yes he has borne our what he has what borne our griefs and carried our sorrows yet we esteemed him stricken smitten by God you know what sometimes we're still thinking we're being smitten by God listen put that to rest today forever hey man God never is going to smite you with sickness and disease you know why because Jesus Galatians 3:13 became the curse for us and delivered us by becoming afflicted he's redeemed us from the curse of the law having become a curse for us for it is written cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree now let's go back to Isaiah 53 and verse 4 these guys are awesome I call my scripture people so the surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows that's the scripture that's it the interesting thing about this word grief and sorrow it's not just talking about being sad and being in grief and like like bereavement it's that those words actually mean sickness and disease and pain they do and when you unpack this in the Hebrew there is so much in these words that are in addition to how it was translated but we esteemed him stricken smitten by God and afflicted look at verse 5 but he was wounded for his own transgressions he was bruised for his own iniquities no he was wounded for who now listen when symptoms try coming on your body you say to those symptoms symptoms you don't belong to me these symptoms belong to Jesus he's already paid the price for these symptoms I'm not identifying with you I'm identifying with the it is finished work that Jesus has already provided on my behalf he was wounded for our transgressions he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement for our peace was upon him in verse 6 and stayed with me by His stripes we are healed now look with me real quickly at Matthew chapter 8 and verse 17 in case there's any doubt about this grief you know carried our sorrows look at what Jesus said when he quoted Isaiah that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet saying he himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses amen to come and heal us he's already done it Carly because I think sometimes when people don't have any experience that maybe they've never seen any healing manifests they've never seen maybe the gifts in operation they've they've just never seen any prayers answered right you know they it's very easy for people to say well that didn't really mean physical sickness that was emotion emotionally sicknesses spiritually we been made well because now we've received Jesus with eternity with him which is true but that's not what this is saying no you know that very scripture day in Matthew 8 verse 17 says he bore our sicknesses yeah that's not talking anything spiritual that's physical sickness physical disease physical pain and actually about going back to Isaiah 53 says by His stripes we are healed that's not talking about spiritual healing that's talking about wellness in our bodies being made whole yeah this is really important that we understand this because sometimes we take our our experience or our lack of experience or our negative experience and we kind of change what we think the Word of God says to fit that experience so if maybe we've grown up I grew up in a church it didn't really understand about healing we didn't really see here only to be preached healing we believed for healing and you know when you're in that environment what you see is no healing because your faith is working perfectly you know getting exactly what you're believing for which is nothing if you do anything you talk about it but you don't ever demonstrate it with power right there's there's no substance there and faith is it has evidence associated with it no and the Word of God it's important we understand the Word of God when it comes to healing because if we don't understand what the word says we're gonna let our opinion be formed by somebody else's that's right but somebody's interpretation of it or by our experience yeah or by how we feel about it yeah and if we want to receive everything that God has for us that means we have to find the foundational scriptures what does God really say about healing not a week what do we think about it or how do it how does it feel in our body or what does that experience tell us but what is the Word of God actually say about this there's a scripture here I was reading this morning this is in Luke 5 okay and this is the the paralytic man Luke chapter 5 verse 17 is on a certain day and as he was teaching Pharisees and teachers of the law is sitting nearby who had come from every town in Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem and the power of the Lord was present to him Oh sick there it is now that's awesome right hallelujah the power of the Lord was present to heal the sick can I get an amen yeah all right before you get too carried away this what present is great if the power of the Lord is presence right but what about if it's not exactly and some of us in our church experience or maybe just in out in our own relationship we kind of determine whether the power of the Lord is present to heal by whether we see it or feel it or feel it or hear it or in some way yeah yeah so if it's prison it kind of means that well if it was present then that means that it maybe isn't present other times which is great for the paralytic man that happened to be healed that day but what about me yeah right I mean let's face it we want to know how does this apply to my life right well I started it to study this and then could you put that scripture up for matsui this is their Luke 5 verse 17 do you have it like in the new New King James perfect so there we are in the New King James it says was present - here keep it up with an in the King James as well see I'm Tony our scripture people they're amazing just put the same verse up there you guys there yeah you see the word present is in both if you look in your Bible you'll find that that's in italics that means that word it wasn't in the original text it's been added to make it easier for us to understand it when I started to study this out in the original text a closer translation of that would have been the power of the Lord was to heal yeah it was to heal it is always to heal it is part of God's nature to heal healing is who he is amen it's not on one day and off the other and depending if we just get the atmosphere just right you know these four crazy friends that load the man in from the roof they weren't especially anointed there wasn't something about the roof or the tiles or the day of the week right or his particular sickness it wasn't just a perfect storm of circumstances that caused this this healing to manifest yeah it wasn't just a coincidence that the parallel does the present to heal in that moment yeah the power of the Lord is to heal now yesterday today and forever that's good news that is really good news and when we go back to these gospel settings you have to realize that they were still under the old covenant mm-hmm you know Matthew Mark Luke and John they were still in that transitional phase of living under an Old Covenant the church age had not yet begun the Acts chapter two is when that started so what Jesus accomplished on the cross has now been made available for whosoever will amen anybody all over the world that's why John 14:12 is so powerful now because Jesus said you're gonna do the same works that I did we'll see up to then it was mostly just the disciples right he had commissioned them he had given them power over sickness and disease but now it is now available to every whosoever so say to your neighbor he's talking about you he's talking about you they said about you yes we are whosoever so what qualifies us is simply believing the report of the Lord and when we begin to believe his report we also discover that it's not just a kind of sort of finished work kind of sort of maybe yeah maybe in fact you know a lot of people think that if they could just manage their symptoms you know the symptoms going on in their body if if quality of life could just be me managing my symptoms well you know what let's let's go to Psalm 103 real quick because I'm gonna show you really quickly that's not the heart of it God the Father that's not the heart of God because Psalm 103 verses one through three says bless the Lord O my soul you know it and all that is within me come on somebody all that is within me amen spirit soul and body all that is within me bless the Lord bless His Holy Name bless the Lord O my soul and forget not all his benefits amen who forgives your iniquities and who heals come on that is worthy of praise right there hey man God had a plan for healing before we even existed it was even his idea it was his idea sometimes people think healing is a New Testament idea it's always been God's plan to heal us no he's pretty committed to it it's his eye he's pretty committed he it was his idea it was in the in the very atonement of Jesus that our healing was paid for it's always been God's will always healing was always part of the plan God isn't schizophrenic where he's somehow changed his mind that's right it's always there what we do as a body of Christ is we we think well our experience is different therefore God must have changed his mind gosh God must have moved right right maybe and we start attaching all of these conditions to it in order well so and so you know maybe they're healed because they prayed enough or they they read their Bible enough or their church attendance was really good or they gave enough in the offering right or maybe Jane over here she's not healed because there's not enough people praying for her right we've somehow got to try and convince to convince God see though we're worthy enough to receive healing yeah you know what healings a gift you often hear people say oh she was such a nice person as if her goodness qualified her to receive healing listen this is never based on your goodness you're not the healer right this is not about you but it's for you Amy and that's why the goodness of God is what this is all about me and God is always good he's always good he is good he doesn't have goodness right he's dazed and ugly the other days right he's he's just good that's who he is let's let's say that and I like this this whole controversy about the will of God yeah it really binds people up it does you know well sometimes we believe with God he can he can if he if he wants to right because he's he's sovereign yes right God is sovereign to do it how can I make him want to yes so he's got the power - but it's almost like sometimes he's withholding it yeah that was you know this is one of the worst doctrines I think in the body of Christ today yeah I agree because it's called the sovereignty of God teaching I believe that God is sovereign but not in the way that the church has portrayed God to be exactly God is sovereign you know that word sovereign has been manipulated God is sovereign but he's not all controlling right Amen he's not all controlling he's all-powerful amen he's omnipotent but he's not controlling in fact he's given us power and authority over these things to lay hands on the sick and see them recover that's right he gave us authority over all of these things so if God were to go against his word he would no longer be God right God will never violate his word he binds himself by his own rules he doesn't ask us to live by one set of rules when we live by something else yeah right I mean he lose by something else that's not how that works right he's a god of his word right exactly and you know that's why I'm so passionate about correct lyrics and songs when were in worship services you know I you know just as an example there was a beautiful song years ago loved the melody and it talked about Savior you know he can move the mountains well yeah I guess you can you sacred cow now cuz I know it it's a great song but you know we know this the Savior is able to move the mountains but what did he tell us right see he said mark 11:23 and 24 if you just believe in your heart you will speak to that mountain and see it cast into the sea so if you don't know your authority as a believer you're gonna be waiting for it oh god I I know you can move the mountain I don't know why you're not at least weak if it makes it next year you know no listen you've got to get absolutely radical about that sickness and that disease and say I am NOT tolerating these symptoms in my body anymore I have authority in the name of Jesus and I'm taking that authority I'm taking it and I'm speaking to that situation and telling it where to go amen that's powerful you know if we had the same mentality about sickness and disease that we do about sin we wouldn't find it difficult to receive the healing that God's really paid for it's true and and and we've just read scriptures in Isaiah 53 we've just whipped and there's there's lots and lots of scriptures actually where healing and sickness are put together in the same package and in the same verse right you know healing and sickness were paid for on the cross at the same time yeah at the same time God does not separate healing and sickness he doesn't you know when we get born again he says well you can have salvation but you can have no about you you can just be sick right it is one package it's one package but but I think what we do is we think well we're going to receive our salvation yeah well they'll receive our salvation and when you receive it by faith right now when you were born again did you see your salvation did you you didn't look any different right but but how many of you in here today would say you're 100% utterly convinced that you are saved right without a doubt a man you know that if you die it tonight you're gonna wake up in heaven amen absolutely convinced I didn't see Barry raised his hand we're still praying for Barry we can do an altar call at the ends right maybe you could respond here you know if in fact if we did an altar call for salvation you know people came down to receive their salvation we're not like well if it's your will Lord yeah if it's your will if people have been good enough maybe there's another salvation in the house maybe your salvation is present enough to save people we don't we don't have that mentality but yet though healing came in the same package we somehow separate it and we think well I'm gonna base whether I've received healing on my experience yeah well you don't pay base your salvation on your experience do you or your goodness or your goodness it makes absolutely no sense to base our healing on our performance or an our ability or on what we've done or if we fasted or if we've prayed or if we've bound unbelief or I mean people get into all kinds of weird things thinking they have to do something yeah we meet people often times and they'll come and have done all these things and I still can't receive healing yeah you know the problem is when we do that we've made receiving healing all about what we've done and not about what Jesus is done yeah and you know it's really interesting about that is the minute you make healing about you you're starting from a position of unbelief right you know your own weaknesses Amen you know you know your failings you know your misgivings you know where your lack of resources are yeah but God's not looking at those things you know the enemy the enemy knows them too that's unfortunate because he's the one that comes to remind us of them but in those moments we just remind him about the end of the book and the fact that we've won come on man he's been defeated yes he is devil he's under our foot defeated defeated right there right there so the so the will of God has been settled in the area of healing absolutely said let's look at this in mark this is this the cleansing of the leper this is in several different Gospels it's in Matthew chapter 8 and Luke 5 as well but I like how it says it in my own in marks account it's in verse 40 says a leper came to him pleading with him and kneeling before him saying if you are willing you can make me clean if you are you can here the pity in his voice almost it's like Lord you know if you can do anything if you are willing yeah you can do it you have the power Lord if only you're in a good mood yeah right don't do that I know you know you're your sovereign you're your all-powerful if only you could please extend a little bit of your power in and look on me favorably yeah and we get this like pitiful thing going on my goodness but look at Jesus's response he says then Jesus moved with compassion very good yesterday we spent all morning talking about our relationship with the Lord and how important it is because healing does not come from any outside source but it is a byproduct of our relationship with the healer yeah we're not running around trying to get healing like it's a thing but healing is a person not a theme right healing is in Jesus amen and when we press into that relationship with Jesus we meet the healer the healing comes right so so here it is it says he was moved with compassion see we when we tap in and we start to get a revelation of how much God loves us how he's absolutely insanely crazy madly in love with us how he had us in mind before the foundation of the world how precious that we are to him how he designed us before we were even in our in our parents mind he he had a plan for your life before that even conceived you he picked your hair color your eye color he knew he had a plan for you where you'd where you'd be born which parents were gonna have you you know there is no mistake in your life that God you are not a mistake God ordained your very birth your parents may not this is for somebody because you know your parents might not been expecting you but God planned you amen amen and we are adopted in his family and he's a good good father and even if we have grown up in a household that has not extended or mirrored that if you have not had a good upbringing we not had a happy childhood if he'd not had loving parents we can know that God is not like our earthly parents that's right he's a good father amen and he's not a child abuser right he takes care of his kids and look he says he was moved with compassion you see the God kind of love is not just like well Daniel I really like you mm-hmm you know you've been so good hmm and you're always so responsive and you're so funny and you don't you're always very obedient you do everything I ask you to do and therefore I'm gonna give you healing oh I'm gonna give you good gifts cuz you were well behaved today do that ever right and you know that's not all true about Daniel I have to say but God but God's kind of love he was moved with compassion this is a love that he's so passionate it moves yes II understand when we tap into the love of God that he has for us we will have absolutely no doubt about his will regarding healing and so if that was true here why would it be different now it's exactly it's not any true right so he says he was moved with compassion he extended his hand and touched him and said I am willing be clean yeah willing I am well you know what Jesus is the same yesterday today and forever he's really he's mine he's always willing he was willing been and he's willing man it's always the will of God amen amen that takes all the doubt out Lord is this year well today is that you're well next week you know what I said this yesterday but I want to say it again today you're healing why not today why not now amen amen that's the heart of the father the heart of the father wants so much for you to receive what he's already provided long ago he's willing a men he's just waiting for us absolutely you know for years I struggled with this God's will scenario and if you don't really know what the will of God is regarding something you cannot pray a prayer of faith in James 5x is the prayer of faith will heal the sick will save the sick yeah but we cannot pray a prayer of faith if we don't understand the will of God because faith operates where the will of God is known right there is that trust and confidence that says I know that healing is for me I know that God has provided for it therefore I'm taking back what the devil stole yeah faith has evidence associated with it is confident it is bold we'll get into some characteristics of faith in another lesson but we cannot pray a prayer of faith if we don't know what the will of God is if you're not utterly convinced you know we can't just run into throw the throne-room of grace in our time of need you know and and and and sit on our daddy's lap and receive everything he has for us and receive the comfort and the strength and the support and the healing and the power that he has for us yeah if we don't know if a daddy's not gonna just beat us over the head with a two-by-four that's exactly right yeah and sometimes as Christians I think we almost behave a little bit like an abused spouse yeah I'm gonna be as kids yeah an abused keeping you know kind of creep in not really sure what God's response is gonna be a good mood today are you gonna hit me right you know listen you know what it's really hard to resist what you're embracing yes true if you're embracing sickness and disease you're not gonna resist it you see when you're identifying with the the lies of the devil and you're trying to resist that but you're holding onto it it's really hard to resist what you're embracing so what God wants you to embrace is him and then he wants you to embrace his truth his word and become so marinated in spirit and truth that when this stuff tries to come on in your body it's like Teflon like I said yesterday it just can't stick it you're not gonna identify with it and if we really believed that it was God's will for us to somehow be sick and you know we wanted to make it really spiritual so maybe God was teaching us something if you really believe that then anytime sickness or disease came knocking at our door yeah well shouldn't we embrace it well and why would you go to a doctor right you wouldn't want to be out of the will of God if that sickness or disease had come from God and it was his idea and he's got somehow some greater plan to teach you something through it and make you more spiritual right they shouldn't we embrace it wholeheartedly if that's our understanding why would we go to the doctors we wouldn't wanna go to the doctors because they might you know help us to receive healing which would be against God's will exactly if we use that if we use that kind of mentality let's take you to the end result right right right well we need it we need to be all in for it yeah I mean when you put it in that context it kind of falls apart doesn't yeah doesn't make sense no it doesn't and God we need to be established in God's Word his doctrine you know his his truth is what sets us free when we know it and we need to be established in that we need to be so established and identified with the truth of God that when this other stuff starts coming it may sound religious it may sound like there's something good in it but as soon as you detect where it's coming from you reject it see it's like no that is not the truth this is not the will of God this is not God trying to teach me something this is me simply saying I'm gonna understand I'm gonna jump into healing I am going to get all that I can in God's Word to be able to come into agreement with what Jesus has already provided for me this is not God withholding this is me getting into the Word of God and becoming a student of the word amen amazing what happens when we make our opinion on what the Word of God says rather than what we've heard come on or our interpretation of it I had epilepsy for years and I had three to four seizures a day I just taken 11 to 13 different medications I have a babysitter just for me with three children that I couldn't take care of I she was out of work every day and I had to the babysitter to take care of me because I couldn't be left I could be left alone now that's debilitating but my church upbringing my interpretation of the world my my doctor my perception of God told me that God God could heal me if he wanted to it was all up to him he had all the power but I didn't know if he was willing well then one day I went to a Bible study and it turned my life upside down it was within the different different church outside of my normal group and these ladies were in faith and I member sitting in that Bible study and for the first time really hearing God on the inside of me we talked about this yesterday hearing the voice of God on the inside of me yeah and he said to me you can be free from epilepsy if you choose to be and I thought I must be hearing things I'm not you know and maybe I'm actually going crazy maybe it's David's maybe it's the meds I had like one eye open you know one eye closed and let everyone everyone else was meditating you're like I'm wondering what's gonna happen next right thinking something strange is gonna go down and then I hear this voice on the inside I mean I'm not did anyone else see that yeah and God said to me you can't you can be free from this epilepsy in two weeks time if you choose to be I set before you life and death or by the way choose life yes love that it's better than death right I tried the death thing it's not so much fun you choose life right and I mean that just put a whole new wrinkle in my brain and I went home I did I can't tell anyone they're gonna think I'm loopy so I went home is in a church we didn't believe in in healing we had sickness services he does not bring out your dead I mean it was bizarre anyway Wow my church was a challenge I think he's Andrew that says you know some churches you know somebody has a heart attack they call 9-1-1 and half the congregation leaves because their own baby which is that one but that's what you call the dead in Christ is your wife right yes but I went home from that and I started to I mean I was so confused I've never heard anyone else say that I didn't understand what hurt on the inside of me and it wasn't like I had anybody else to bounce that off of yeah so I said Lord you're gonna have to show me in the word and he took me through the scriptures he showed me that Jesus had a healing ministry and I'd read the scriptures a lot I was I was a word person but it just never occurred to me that most of Jesus's ministry it was like he was addicted to healing he just went around raised the dead heal the sick cast out Devils looks like everywhere he went a breathing healing breathing reason with it I mean you know it's like everywhere he went yeah and he said to me you can you can choose to be well from epilepsy no one I mean that was like who was that right the doctors don't say that they say you know you've got a diagnosis and you're gonna have to take medication for the rest of your life right and you can never be cured from that yeah and then this is voice this is God on the inside of me saying oh you can choose to turn epilepsy off you showed me a picture of a switch and he said to me when you're ready just flip the switch just turn epilepsy off I'm like either you're God or I'm crazy I mean it can't you know it's one way or the other here but over that period of that next two weeks it wasn't anything magical about those two weeks I don't want you to think like you know that's something really spiritual like in two weeks time that's how long it takes to receive healing now God spoke that to me because he knew I had a lot of junk to get through right I had a lot of wrong thinking a lot of wrong doctrine yeah but during that two weeks he took me on a journey through the Scriptures showing me in the word how he has put in a spout and authority in fact you know he's or his will is 81 he wanted me to be well and and at the end of that two weeks I was utterly convinced that God loves me and that God wanted me to be well yeah and I went back to that Bible study and I in my brain I was like you know if I if so-and-so prays for me and I'm not gonna tell anyone but if so-and-so prays for me then I know it's your will Lord right as I'm like my religious mindset and I went back to that Bible study and nothing happened it was unspectacular and we're leaving it sometimes even doesn't manifest how we think it's going you know trumpets as no angels no bolts of lightning you know now we have to take it by faith right well by faith not by sight so the as we're literally leaving the house we were going to get our kids from school and my friend says to me I just feel like I'm supposed to I'm supposed to pray for you I'm like yes you are right yeah so I mean normally we'd have like you know long get it under the blood this if it be thy will high prayers that sound really impressive lots of words yeah well we didn't have time for that so she just laid a hand on me and she said be healed in Jesus name that was it he's not impressive really underwhelming well honestly and she just got in a car and drove away man but you know what happened something happened on the inside of me that was my connection point I flipped the switch yeah and I crazy as it might sound to the outward world in my mind I turned epilepsy off yeah I took authority I chose life over death and I turned it off in that moment amen it was a decision it wasn't a feeling it was a decision I felt absolutely no different in my flesh Wow absolutely no different and I and I went home and I said actually you know I've been healed of epilepsy day I didn't look any different I just knew that I knew that I knew that it was done yeah and you know I've never had another seizure since and that was 14 years ago amen come on baby [Applause] epilepsy is not as easy no mass-produces now the other side of that I was healed because I knew it was God's will for me to be made one yeah I'm just the lucky one amen no God sovereignly chose just God sovereignly chose me so even though I received hearing in that moment cuz in that moment I knew that it was God's will for me to be healed I didn't have a whole picture yeah I didn't understand that it was always God's will I didn't understand that God's Will was to heal wasn't that the power of God was just present to you in that moment right it was now and forever every day in every way for every person yes amen and so when our daughter became sick she was actually sent home from the hospital to diet three years old with an incurable autoimmune disease we afraid of we prayed we pray for her of course we did yeah but we didn't know it was God's will mm-hmm you see you see the difference you see how it is it's so important not just have a piece of the truth right but to have the whole truth yeah so we knew there's God's will for me but we know it's God's will for Hannah yeah and so people said to us maybe this is God's judgment on you maybe God is trying to teach you something yeah and because even though we'd experienced some manifestation in healing would seem some breakthroughs in some area we didn't have a whole picture of the nature of God on the inside of us we didn't understand that God wasn't just good sometimes that he's only good yeah so we we suck it up you know we said we took in everything that everyone had to say and we thought well maybe God is judging us maybe we have made some horrible mistakes that the blood of Jesus wasn't big enough to overcome when we say out loud it sounds ridiculous yeah you know it really does when you actually voice these things they say it takes the power out of them but it took it took a whole journey of a process of actually listening to Andrews materials and listening to God wants as well for us to understand that it was God's will for hanif at healing wasn't just one time but it's now and forever and when we understood that piece of the puzzle instead of taking Hannah home from the hospital to die we took her to a conference much like this one yeah and we said you know waitwait taking our Delta T to get a second report we're gonna get a second opinion yeah this is the child was given maybe three four days a week to live a tops she had a feeding tube inserted into her body she looked like she was in a vegetative state although her hair fell out she was three years old but the size of a nine month old child she didn't walk she didn't talk she didn't really move she was just she was a little vegetable yeah and and so no we took her to that conference but what happened on the inside of us was a shift of face yeah and that shift of face started because for the first time in our lives we understood unequivocably what the will of God was regarding healing yeah we were not going to that conference to have somebody lay hands on our daughter in the hope that maybe something might change we set our faith and we said we're gonna go to South Conference and someone's gonna lay hands on us and when they do the power of God's gonna be released and our daughters gonna live well amen and she will not die but she will live and declare the goodness of God in the land of the living that's gonna work out you declared it we declared it and you know what she is 15 years old today she was healed instantaneously in that moment and she has never been sick with that ever again [Applause] Wow I mean she's she's strong she's healthy hooting ho Carla Carla was just telling us back in the green room that she it was today her first day of school at high school first day of high school today at Air Academy high school and she's enrolled in ROTC yep she's she's on a mission she wants to become a Marine yeah [Applause] do you know what I she's gonna do it I mean she's feisty she's gonna be stronger than horseradish look at her mama I think she could take me yet you know what's so awesome about this everything when you begin to discover that it's God's will for you to be healed well then it must be God's will for everybody to be right so once you settle that in your heart look at you know this scripture but I wanted to stir you up with this out of Mark chapter 16 and let's look at verse 17 just because of time here but these signs will follow those who believe say with me today I'm a believing believer believing believing believing believers right come on I'm a believing believer believing believe it and these signs in these things follow me follow me know you know my wife maybe I shouldn't share this I know she she here they won't tell anyone okay so don't tell anybody but in worship I know you know she loves to sign you know during worship and you know the glory of God and you know so one day I was like honey I have no idea what any of that means and she said yeah I know and I said it's kind of like signs and wonders you sign and I wonder yeah listen that is not what mark 16 is talking about here amen he said those who believes these signs will follow those who believe in my name they're gonna cast out demons this is not just for me and Carly amen this is for every believer who believes amen what are we gonna do we're gonna cast out demons we're gonna speak with new tongues we're gonna take up serpents if they drink anything thing deadly it will by no means hurt them they'll lay hands on the sick and they will get sicker is that what I said we're gonna lay hands on the sick and what they will recover anyways God that is our ministry as a believer amen so once you experience healing for yourself once you experience healing for your daughter you know we could share so many stories and thank God I love testimonies you know they're they're so powerful but when you've lived this for a number of years and someone says do you believe it's God's will to heal it's that are you kidding me of course it's God's will to heal it's always God's will to heal then we're not gonna wait for somebody else to do it listen one of the greatest mission fields in the United States is Walmart oh yeah especially around midnight there is there is something really special about midnight and Walmart what kind of life films appear Walmart I'm telling you you go to the grocery store you're just doing what you do every day as a believer and I'm telling you there's all kinds of divine assignments waiting for you if you're willing amen if you're if you're available and God says if you're a believer these signs are gonna follow you you believe well you know what is amazing about signs that follow means that you must be going someplace right see you're walking this thing out on a daily basis probably tell my story about when you went to the oh we have a two minutes when you went to the grocery store and you were in the checkout oh my goodness you go to work through you even if you're not 100% willing right I was kind of reluctant actually but I was in Walmart weather with with Hannah when she was little and we get to the cashier and the cashier there's a whole long line you know woman always has long lines and we get that and she's she's like really painfully pushing the stuff through the conveyor belt there and then and so we started talking to this lady and she says yeah I've got to have surgery on my neck and my shoulders they're all messed up and and so Hannah pipes up oh well you can just lay Howsam um right it should be healed funny how kids would put you in that little position I'm like thank you honey what a blessing you are child you know there is nowhere to hide right whether I willing or not it's irrelevant in this moment right so it's a lady yeah sure I'll pray for you can I pray for you and I believe that I pray for you in the pain to leave and you won't need the surgery oh that would be lovely here's please please go and pray for me that we great I said so I gotta reach out and put my hand on her it's just oh you mean now you mean now you think she thought I was gonna have her on my prayer list don't think you know so I said yes right now but this is how this works so I laid hands on a spoke to the pain all the pain went they may as she was issues he she was happy she was moving around she was she was like this is this is great I feel so much better thank you so much plus you can check out faster I think she can get on and I think that one really was Hannah's motivation so it was probably yeah right she just wanted to get out of there let's just get healed already and move on Yeah right you know what happens when you start stepping out and then in the things of God other people are watching yeah well before you know it other people are rubbernecking and then oh you pray for me will you pray for me we had a prayer line in the middle Walmart right right there's a little Walmart come on I love that I love that and you know what if you'll just make yourself available as a believer you're gonna have divine connections happening all over the place you know it's like you begin to see with new eyes and hear with new ears and you'll see needs all over the place and then you just say Holy Spirit thank you for flowing through me and be led by the Spirit of God I tell you what if you ever think that the life of a believer is boring I'm telling you you are in for a big surprise because it is the best adventure there is amen and the good news is the best is yet to come amen so we're gonna take a break right now we'll be back in 30 minutes don't forget our product area downstairs the restrooms are right out here those will be joining us online we love you we'll be back in 30 minutes god bless you you you you yeah Oh let's get people back in we just met Caen here we are again again we want to say welcome back to all of our Facebook live and all of our livestream thank you so much for being a part of our healing is here event on the Internet and those of you here in the auditorium again thank you so much for coming amen and remember if you're watching online be sure to comment in the comment section if you're watching on Facebook or social media and let us know what God is doing in you and how you've been receiving the word and seeing manifestations of healing would love to see your testimonies and read them out you share them with everybody else you know revelations he says we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony that's why we are big believers in having people write down their testimony whether that's online or whether that's here in the auditorium on one of our praise report sheets but you know when we start to write it down it's almost like it becomes real you know and we kind of found this with our daughter as well you know when we when we made the DVD of Hannah's of Hannah's healing yeah we put it was like it immortalized the fact of what had happened right and even though we were living you know when we started to write it down we captured when we started to film it rather we captured all of the details and sometimes I think that it's those little details as time goes by that can get lost or you know the enemy can come back and say did it really happen that way was it really as powerful did you really feel all the pain go and and you can start to question and self doubt and it's this little way the enemy's little way but very subtly trying to undermine what God has been doing in our life but when we write it down you know we overcome by the blood of the land by what Jesus has done for us and by what we operate in the word of our testimony but what we are prepared to say about what he's done for us that's really powerful so so yes and is your Testament or if you're here in the room and I'm Tracie can they get sheets from you we should they'll be on either side of the stage is where they keep those sheets and so please though if you're gonna write physically write as a sheet don't write in tongues yeah right I don't want a word of knowledge to have to interpret it no that's right yeah so you guys having a good time this morning already yeah good you know last night was interesting wasn't it as we're in here and we have that little momentary power 19 yeah right and then the Thunder and I kept thinking about all of you who are parked out in the toolies on the grass it's like walking through the mud full-body experience I'm telling you you gotta really want to be at healing is here right you know you know I think there's a greater anointing and a stronger a greater blessing for those people that are parked really far away and I think there are especially strong in the Lord that's right it's what it is it's strong in faith for the new parking garage to be completely received how exciting is this that this good news of the gospel is literally going around the world amen in that awesome in every country every kindred every tribe is discovering how good god is and we get to be a part of it I mean it would be fun actually to see where in the world people are watching this from yes I know we've had testimonies from somebody from New Zealand from India so if you're if you're watching this and let us know where you're from yeah in fact really quickly how many of you are not from Colorado would you raise your hands all right and then how many of you how many of you are not from United States and you're here for this conference yes Wow look around everybody hey man where are you from brother any other African nations here Wow exciting with that I'm gonna be in South Africa at the inn in September I'm excited maybe I'm a man and I met a couple from Australia who came over just for the healing is here event that's where are you from where sagen do you often miss Australia as well right over the back do you all know each other it's true we have a whole entourage from Canada that are you yeah what about Europe anyone from Europe here my family's homeland they have great chocolate they do have great chocolate great cheese - cheese Swiss cheese South America over there South America crazy oh yes the family of God coming together amen that really is multicultural you know there's something so awesome about the kingdom of God and I keep imagining what what's heaven gonna be like you know out of every kindred every tribe we're gonna all be experiencing the goodness of God for all of eternity together I know right so you know what's awesome is we don't have to wait until we die to experience the kingdom of God we get to celebrate his grace now and Jesus is the one who's made it all possible obviously so we're just we're just honoring in fact I want to just take a minute and just say father we bless you today we're so grateful for Jesus we're so thankful for the body of Christ and that we get to be a part of the body of Christ and what you are doing in the earth right now thank you Lord God for the good news that has set us free that's transforming our lives in every area not only in our spirit man but in our soul and now in our bodies thank you Lord God that we have discovered that our body is your temple and Lord that we are living every day from now on to your glory and we bless you for it in Jesus name Amen amen praise the Lord so last time we started talking our last session about the importance of understanding that it is God's will and that is crucially important AIT's the foundation for our faith but the point is if it was as simple as understanding that it is God's will to receive healing then everyone that understood that would receive healing right would they not are there some people in here that understand that it's God's will and yet you still haven't seen the full manifestation of healing your body I bet there are right and then you know there is nothing more frustrating than understanding the truth but it's seeming like it's just out of reach yeah that causes frustration and you know you may be struggling in a particular area of your life like healing whereas somebody else may be struggling with an area like prosperity right or somebody else might be struggling with an area like relationally in some kind of way right we're all in process amen this is the walk of faith yeah amen and I don't know that anyone arrives a man until we get to until we get to heaven I don't think that we all get this down me and Daniel certainly haven't perfected this we've just got some victories at ISM in some areas you know some some of us are just a little further along the same path than other people right you haven't got there we haven't got this down a hundred percent it doesn't mean that you know things don't come against us I mean you've heard Daniels testimony you know he was in an MRI machine but but but you know you had that challenge it stopped you your faith didn't stop that challenge coming against you but it changed how you responded to it didn't it oh absolutely in fact when the medical South was coming around me to do all the myriad of tests you know the blood and all the stuff you know I would end up ministering and cheering them up we were we were in like ER and we were kind of having a party you know you're the noisy patient aren't you I am that guy yeah but when you've got that great celebration going on on the inside of your heart you've got something greater inside jesus said it this way greater is He that's in us then here it's in the world so when you begin to understand that great is the Lord right gray is the Lord and greatly to be praised and the greatness of God is living on the inside of us so when that pressure starts coming against you you know when the enemy starts bringing that trial that storm that pressure against you listen to me the greatness on the inside is greater than the pressure coming on the outside amen that greatness on the inside will simply be a part of resisting what the enemy is trying to bring on you which in this case is sickness and disease you know I'm just John Force is greater is He that's in us the Jesus in us and he that's in the world yeah amen and we aren't gonna stop all the challenges of life coming against us but we can stop reacting to them in the way that we have previously well Carly that's so powerful because Jesus actually said in this world you will have tribulation I mean we can guarantee that right right that's the problems you can stand on that is what Jesus said if you've never had a challenge just hold on you probably find someone that has when I was about this kid we used to have this little loaf of bread that was made out of plastic and inside of it was all these little promises you know from the Word of God on little cards and you would take out your you know daily bread to pull up the promise I remember when I got to the one where I said in this world you will have tribulation as I hate that promise that is not a fridge magnet I don't want that but then the Lord said keep reading in this world you have tribulation but what be of good cheer because I have overcome so listen you got the party going on the inside waiting to happen and I tell you what the joy of the Lord the Spirit of God on the inside of you all the fruit of the Spirit is alive and well and when the enemy comes to steal kill and destroy what's greater on the inside of you begins to resist that attack on the outside you know when we start to focus on every good thing that's innocent Christ Jesus will start to see our faith become effective yeah and look at this this is in Romans 8 verse 9 it says how you however I'm not in the flesh we're not only in the flesh but not only in what we see in it in a natural but we are in the spirit if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you now if any man does not have the Spirit of Christ he does not belong to him and if Christ is in you though the body is dead because of sin the Spirit is alive because of righteousness yeah but if the spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you also give life to your mortal bodies through his spirit that lives in you yes women turn teenagers say you have dead raising power in you you have dead raising power in you glory to God and this is what faith does yeah it starts we're gonna look at some characteristics of faith and the role of faith that it plays in receiving healing and this session because you know faith looks at what we have on the inside of us in the person Jesus faith looks beyond the natural circumstances to what is going on in the supernatural right in the spiritual realm and it says here we're not only natural yeah amen there's a part of us that's 100 percent spiritual that's right amen we just happened to have a body yeah a third of us is wall-to-wall Holy Ghost amen all we need to do is have a majority vote and that won't be set that's it we got to get our minds our mind will and emotions our soul if you like in agreement with what's gone into our spirit we know that in our spirit we have the power that raises Jesus from the dead that very same power same power Amen you do you don't have a small version of Jesus or a little bit less of the Holy Spirit than somebody else right you either have Jesus you they have the Holy Spirit or you don't right you either a believer or you're an unbeliever amen if you're a believer you got the whole benefit package that's right the whole deal you know there's no there's no more power living in Daniel right now than there is living in you that's it there's no more power living in Andrew right now than there is living in you yes we are we are one in Christ but the difference is how we access that power that we're all carrying around and we do that by this this vehicle that God has set up called faith he's a very fair system actually it is right because it means that no matter where we've come from no matter how long we've been born-again no matter our past experience or a doctrine or a church history or any of those things we can we're all on it as believers we are all on an equal footing to access every promise that God has provided every promise amen it doesn't matter where we from yeah that's good news yeah cuz this it's not about us no but when it comes to the will of God if it was just as simple as understanding the will of God and in the area of healing as important as that is that means everybody that knows the will of God would see healing manifest in their flesh right well there's that there's another step to this we have to respond to the promises of God we have to respond to the will of God through this thing called faith mm and when we respond to God in faith is like we're saying yes and amen yeah that's agree just like when you receive salvation you know no one came upon you it wasn't a glory cloud that overtook you and opened your mouth and made you receive Jesus right somebody didn't put a gun to your head and say you got to receive Jesus and even if they did on the inside you could be you could be have a different decision than what you're doing on the outside right you had to in your own heart respond by faith to what Jesus had already provided for you and to receive salvation amen it's exactly the same process for receiving healing yeah andrew gives the example sometimes when when he was young there was a minister who had offered money as an example he held up a dollar bill or a $10 $20 bill whatever it was and he said who wants this and everybody in the room all the kids that were there at this youth event were like we do we do and he kept saying who wants this and everybody was like louder you know we do well Andrew said he was all the way on the back row and he finally got the you know the idea I not only want it but I'm gonna take it and he walked up from where he was and got up and the minister said there it is see it's one thing to believe it but are you gonna take what's already been given and received what's already been provided amen amen and then and there's that response that response of faith we didn't wake up one day saved we had to decide to make it to turret to respond yeah it's the same with healing we're gonna we're gonna we're you look at this response and the response of faith might surprise you it has some characteristics you know that I think there is a misunderstanding in the body of Christ today about hope and faith hope is super important super and it is the basis for faith it is it is a is linked to our imagination if you didn't first hope that you could not receive healing you would not have stepped in this building that's right right when you saw this conference advertised healing is here there's something on the inside of you that says man he there's good I think there's gonna be healings that are happening in that building yeah I think the healing power of God is going to be released in that building I think those there are going to be messages of God's grace and God's power there are at least in that building that I need to hear yeah and you started thinking you started planning you started seeing yourself maybe getting in the car and traveling or or driving or or or getting on the airplane you started to see yourself and your friends and your family and who you're four crazy friends that you drug along right you start of seeing yourself here right you studied maybe you saw it maybe you saw the marketing is so the the adverts the video clips on Facebook or or TV you studied to see crowd some last you think yeah I can start seeing myself in that crowd right do some of you do that yeah that was hope was painting a picture on the inside of you that's right but you know at some point when you get here there's that there's a transition that happens and you're not just here hoping that something's gonna change in your life there's a fire that lights on the inside of you that says you know what I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired I'm all about this I am NOT gonna be sick a minute longer I know how to sit in this seat in this seat hoping that someone's gonna lay hands on me hoping that there may be something in my life might change them maybe the pain will go that maybe the paralysis will leave there maybe my blood sugar level will be normal or whatever it is that you've been dealing with but now I'm gonna go and take by space come on what belongs to me yeah came in there's a difference you see we start in hope yeah but it's when we reach a place of faith that we are able to access the promises of God that grace has already provided for us so could we actually say a hope paints a picture yeah absolutely is linked to your imagination and once you begin to see that picture painted on the inside then what do we do with it you know we respond we we respond to the Word of God and based on what we believe about him actually it says it here in Matthew 8 verse 13 it says go you sees Jesus speak and go your way and as you have believed there it is so let it be done for you in other words we receive from God based on how we believe we're gonna receive it Wow so we're not waiting for God to just show up he's done his part remember faith he's not trying to move the arm of God the will of God settle amen he's really it the will he's will he's always willing he's promises are yes and amen he's the same yesterday today and forever his mind is made up about the area of healing and many other things actually and it's yes every time yeah that's right we're not trying to convince God but what we're doing here is we are responding to what he's providing here it is and what we believe about God's Word directly prints that picture and and as corresponding actions as to how we access it and what that manifestation looks like yeah God is not in heaven deciding how long it's gonna take for the healing healing power to manifest flesh he's not the deciding factor we are yeah that's truth you know I remember actually the first testimony of the for healing journeys was ever created and in anti-roman ministries I remember watching Nicky ocean skis now she's Nicky Weller I remember watching her testimony how many people have seen that have you seen that I know the van winkles it down here they were a big part of that testimony you know something that Nicky said now we're out dr. Hannah was was was still dying nothing had changed and it was a it was like an hour-long testimony and I'd asked the Lord is anyone in the world still being healed today I mean is anyone is anyone still receiving healing and somehow I came across Nicky's Nicky's video and it popped up on my computer screen in this tiny little box you know this is this was using years ago and it but I sat watching this tiny little box for an hour because I was fascinated by something she said she realized in her heart that she had been believing that she was just gonna get a little bit better every day yeah there every day that's what she was believable she could see the power of God manifesting in her body and she could imagine herself well but she had limited God yeah because in how our understanding in her mind in her imagination Hope had painted the picture that healing came gradually yeah now that would be good right I mean he doesn't matter how it comes yeah right we just wanna be healed right some of us would just take right to me that's fine but there was a switch that flicked on the inside of her when she realized that God had something even better than gradually he had an instantaneous manifestation of healing that she didn't have to be sick for a minute longer man and when she had that revelation on the inside of her actually Angie went to a house to pray for her there was something that just flipped and she and she just swung her legs off that better she said my time is now then there was something inside of her that just went off like a rocket ship this she said I'm just done with being sick I'm taking the healing that belongs to there it is she took it she had moved from hope to faith in that moment yeah and he didn't have to take weeks or months or years right she didn't have to look at her performance she didn't have to you know get all the right scriptures and make sure that she was confessing them just right and every word was just right and she she's no good if she never said anything negative out my mouth no she just believed ya in that moment and she took faith now she put action to what she believed she had a now-famous moment this thing could faith is powerful stuff it's powerful mm-hmm absolutely you know Nikki was just here a few weeks ago yeah yeah I met ya and we got to talk to her now all these years later and just to see how God is blessing her life and her children and she you know beautifully married with these lovely kids wouldn't be here they just think about it that's right how that seed has now produced an amazing harvest right and listen this is what God wants to do in every one of our lives the seed of his word is already programmed for the harvest and God wants you to be experiencing harvest not only in you but through you to the entire world it's awesome this is good news you know Hebrews 11 is the famous faith chapter yeah I love Hebrews but I want to look at something here says Hebrews 11 verse 33 for 2:35 and keep your Bibles there it says who's through faith subdued kingdoms what righteousness obtained promises who wants to obtain the promises of God today yeah amen stopped the mouths of lions quenched the violence of fire escaped the edge of the sword out of weakness was made strong who's got a weakness and need to be made strong yeah right became valiant in battle turned to flight the armies of the aliens and women received their dead raised to life again yeah through faith all of these things happened faith is powerful these are positive response to what God has already done you know the very word faith comes from the root word pistoia it means to be fully persuaded to be convinced to have trusting confidence in the Word of God above our circumstance that's right to be a to be so convinced that what the Word of God is what it says it is and has done what he has says it has done to be more convinced that this word is real even than how we feel about it in our five senses right when we get that way the healing hasn't got a chance it's manifesting that's exactly isn't disease he's leaving right that's it it's placing this report of a higher value than the doctor's report that's right value in God's report and Carly look at verse 11 in in the air verse 1 rather in Hebrews 11 it says now faith is see not tomorrow not yesterday but now and I love the fact that God is the I am yes no I was although I was last week I will be I may be present tense present tense and God is always present tense that's why it frustrates frustrates me so bad when we're in worship services you know when people are like Oh God come come I'm like open up your heart she's been here for 2,000 years you know he's already here see now faith is so let's not wait for something that's already been provided right amen faith is seeing healing manifest in our bodies you know we read this and Matthew 9:29 actually he says he touched their eyes according to your face let it be unto you see God is not deciding how we received today he's just working with whatever we give him right so if we believe that we're gonna get a little bit better every day then that's what we give got to work with but I believe that people in this room can be half at now facies moment right though you do not have to walk out these Brown doors the same way you came in this from home you don't have to you can leave sickness and disease right here don't worry we have a great disposal program we know what to do okay it's not a problem Amy yeah could you could you just show us Hebrews 11 verse 1 in the amplified I like this the way he puts in them provide yeah he's getting pumped he knows what's coming you know no matter what translation you look up this verse in it they all start the same way yeah now-now-now faith next week faith not next year faith now faith is the assurance the confirmation the title deed the proof of ownership right of the things that we hoped for being the proof of the things that we do not see and the conviction of their reality faith perceiving as real fact that is not revealed to the senses that's a lot right that's good man you see faith goes way beyond how he feel about it faith does not care how you feel about it yeah irin doesn't it is not linked to your emotions now as Andrew said last night sometimes you know when we were operating in faith we might have an emotion but it's not it's not based on your emotions yes way more sure than that yeah it's the substance the evidence of the very thing that you first hoped for you came here hoping for your for your healing to manifest and phrases I'm taking it it's mine it's mine amen and there and there's evidence associated with it yeah often people say to us how to an arm in face yeah this evidence associated there's evidence associated with it all right there's a fruit of it and many people they'll come from ministry and they really believe that they're in faith but when we get down and we look at the different characteristics here you can see how different they are and it's important not because we want to we want to find ourselves in condemnation but because Jesus meets is our point of faith right he meets us where we're at so we need to be real first in our own hearts about really where we were at and then we can meet Jesus there amen wait and so you know sometimes I hadn't member man one time here he came and then he came I think we were maybe it was a summer family Bible Conference but he came and he I was on the prayer line he came to anyone in ministry for for his arm he had complete paralysis in his in his whole arm you couldn't move it to and says what are you believing is gonna happen when we pray what do you believe what are you because according to your face yeah let it be enter know according to my faith I don't know what's gonna happen when I pray right what are you believing is gonna happen when I pray guys well I'm just I'm just hoping I'm healed I said no that's not good enough that's not good enough I'm sorry that's not how you receive healing just hoping and wishing something's gonna change you know the grace of God might happen to fall upon you like the glory that's not how you're gonna receive we receive God based on he's based on faith that's how we access the promises of God you know in in Hebrews 11 it in Hebrews 2 oh I think actually it says by faith and patience we inherit the promises mm-hmm you know we have we access them by physis listen let me let me share something with you I'm gonna tell you now what I believe is gonna happen when I pray for you I'm gonna lay hands on you the power of God is gonna be released into your flesh your nerves are gonna come back to life the paralysis of who's gonna believe muscles are gonna grow back strength and feeling you're gonna be at a raise your arm up and praise the Lord when I pray for you yeah he said to me I like what you said all right let's agree with that yeah let's agree with that yeah sometimes when we've been sick for a long time it's hard for us even to imagine yeah what it is like that's what hurts it's hard for it I hope sometimes gets distorted yeah amazing Proverbs it says Hope deferred makes the heart sick yeah we start to come like that man with very little expectation of anything happening I mean what if someone's prayed for you for a long time and made your hope well in this guy you know he actually saw himself sick trying to get well that's why he said I hope so yeah see but if he had seen himself through his imagination to the picture that the Holy Ghost was painting through the Word of God he would have seen himself well resisting that sickness the picture would be completely different and you know the end of the story is when that man find it found himself in the place of faith he got into cently healed that's very good but I want to compare him to another guy he had come from ministry yeah you see he had like club feet and he couldn't walk properly he hit canes but he came down the front with a pair of tennis shoes in his hand yeah come on I love that story I remember that yeah he came down the front with a pair of tennis shoes you know what you can see face yeah there's many times in the Gospels they saw their faith yeah cuz faith acts well and remember in New York the lady who was in the wheelchair and she attended she was attached to her wheelchair same thing yeah she and she got up and walked out of that wheelchair that day because she already had the expectation before she got to the meeting that she was gonna receive it and take it man and she did there is a boldness in faith amen because you see faith is not based on our emotions or our feelings or just hoping that God's might just shine his light upon us and his will might be good for us yeah faith is based on the facts of what God has said yeah I remember faith operates where the will of God is known so faith is operating based on the fact that we know that God's Will has already been settled in heaven yeah we're just coming back to appropriate it she's coming to receive it we're coming to get into agreement with what God has already decided right so this guy came down with it with his shoes I said what's what's going on with you he says well I'm believing when you pray for me my feet are gonna straighten out and I'm gonna put these tennis shoes on and I'm gonna and I said well how's your life going to change and we started dreaming together we started talking we started painting a picture what is this tell me what you're gonna be able to do after I've prayed for you that you couldn't do before I prayed for you tennis shoes on I'm gonna get a run around this room I'm good we had to get down on the floor and play with my little kids I'm gonna be able to go on bike rides with my children I'll give you a to go back to work and get off disability my life's gonna completely change yeah you see what face sounds like yeah it sounds different yeah and you know he got exactly what he was believing yeah yeah yeah according to his faith yeah let it be unto Him yeah but that's completely different from when the man started out when he came down with it with his withered arm that's right right he he had to be moved from a place of Hope to a place of faith the first year we did the healing school there was a man who came down who obviously needed healing and he was standing there and and we were about to minister to him and the spirit God just said this man is not a believer yeah you know ask him if you'd like to believe so we said sir have you received Jesus as your personal Savior Lord and he said no I haven't and we said would you like to he said no not really really just want healing I just want healing we said no problem do you know we just laid our hands on him declared healing he instantly received healing and his life was so wracked by that moment and we said how do you feel about Jesus now you want to receive my Savior he said yes please [Applause] I'm telling you when you experience the goodness of God it leads you to repentance amen God is so good and he wants us to be experiencing his goodness and how we access what he's already provided is always by faith it is you know someone some of you are facing situations today that are absolutely impossible in the natural realm and as we're talking about face of doing kingdoms and faiths coming against impossible scenarios I want to share with you out of romans chapter 4 a situation with abraham and we're gonna start with verse 13 it says for the promise that he would be the heir of the world was not to abraham or to his seed through the law but through the righteousness of faith hallelujah and if those are of the law are heirs faith is made void and the promise made of no effect because the law brings about wrath for where there is no law there's no transgression man there's so much in this therefore it is a faith that it might be according to grace so that the promise might be sure to all the seed not only to those who are of the law but also to those who are a faith of Abraham who is the father of us all as it is written I've made you a father of many nations in the presence of him who you believed God who gives life to the dead and calls those things which did not exist as though they did watch this man in their powerful who contrary to hope contrary to hope in hope believed so that he became the father of many nations according to what was spoken so shall your descendants be and being not weak in faith he did not get swatches he did not consider his own body already dead since he was about a hundred years old oh my goodness and the deadness of Sarah's womb listen when the Lord gives you a promise you better start putting action to this wasn't an immaculate conception we're talking about no this was not he was going to be a father of many nations and he said you're gonna conceive a son and watch what happened here he did not waver at the promise of God through unbelief but was strengthened in faith why because he did not consider his own body what we consider is important it's very important and look at verse 21 being fully convinced everybody say fully convinced not just well I've heard about healing I think God could do it I don't know if he's in a good mood no being fully convinced that what he God had promised he God was also able to perform listen that's faith seeing it taking what's impossible and making it become possible you know there's there's a lot of opportunity for unbelief you know in that situation isn't there a hundred-year-old body you think what you're looking at yourself you're looking at your wife and you're thinking there's not much action been going on there for a while you know I'm just I mean I'm just saying you know the shops been shut a while so I mean you got to get past some things in the natural right right and and they said there had to be some action to the face that's right so even though God had given him in properties Angra hammers looking up at the stars and he's seen you know my descendants are gonna be as many as there are stars in the sky you know he's looking under his feet and they seen the grains of sand in the desert and he's thinking my descendants are gonna be as many as the grains of sand that I'm standing on oh my goodness that's hard for people to even imagine but I believe that God gave him very very visual pictures because hope was needing to paint a picture on the inside of Abraham that's when he looked at Sarah he sure wasn't seeing the picture of fertility right I mean I'm just saying five years old get a different picture on the inside of him God had to give him something to work with Yeah right he had to start seeing and and connecting with the promise that God had for him to have a multitude and multitude of generations at 40 that's right and and when he really saw it on the inside he started to speak that out he started to speak out in agreement with what God had said but then there was an action that followed that's right and you know Isaac was born right that didn't happen by accident this process of faith and speaking and action is the process by which make miracles manifest yeah yeah it's the same every time and listen if Abraham at a hundred years old had a promise from God why on earth are we letting culture tell us that when we turn 40 were over the hill nine I've just decided Daniel I'm doing 40 sapless Lee you are yes absolutely that's what I'm gonna do yeah me too 40 yeah 40 okay yeah it's working it's good yeah yeah the truth is I just turned 67 in March you know yeah but you know seriously when we age our culture today when you turn 40 okay you should start to watch this you should start to expect your hearing to go Yeah right you just start to expect your mobility to become less because after all you are aging I mean you know you should expect your vision to get worse and worse you know you should you know see the culture will start to define the quality of your life we've got to say no to that and yes to God's work because you know what when you're 60 years old you're only halfway there yeah was the guy that said in my health will not be abated in my eyesight will not be dimmed amen amen that's not efficient so we'll you know what we can age gracefully and this is such a big thing in our culture today you know what even among our young people because our young people watch family as family ages and many of our students have it scares me to think about growing old because when I watch my grandma my grandpa Wow I watch my aunts and uncles and all you know it scares me I don't want to get sick I don't want to have that disease well listen don't let healing be motivated by fear right the love of God is always our motivation and it'll cast out all fear amen and so we who are 40 and above you know what can I just Commission you today let's show the younger generation what abundant life looks like come on let's show them what it looks like let's live it inside out and those of you who are younger that are here even today and joining us on the internet I'm so glad you are because you know what you don't have to wait 40 years to get this message that God wants you well you can start living it right now that's right so this this thing called faith is powerful it's powerful the good news is you know wow it's all right for you you know your your people of faith in power yeah you know you must have like super definitely strong when they were dishing out faith you must got like a really good quality cut or something I've just got like the clearance section faith yeah right because when you speak such stuff happen right but when I speak it's you know crickets right nothing nothing changes yeah you know we need to we need to stop that is our confession in there I mean let me read this scripture this is cool this is in in Romans 12 verse 3 I like it how it says it in the King James Version if you could put that for us Romans 12 verse 3 it says for I say through the through the grace that has been given unto me to every man that is among you do not think of himself more highly than he ought to but think soberly according as God has dealt to every man the measure of faith what measure of faith have you got yeah you've got the measure there Jesus measure of faith yeah amen man if we have Jesus on the inside of us yeah do you ever think that Jesus is lacking in the face Department right you're walking you're walking around with the King of glory on the inside of you right carriers of the King of glory that's who you are that's right you might not look like it on the outside but on the inside you're a carrier of the King of glory you're a vessel for the supernatural power of God to flow through ya just sitting there waiting to be released because you have the Jesus kind of measure of faith on the inside of you Jesus is never lacking in fact ever I like this in them let's go over here and we're going mark chapter 4 chapter 4 this is the calming of the storm write that in verse 35 mark 4 verse 34 that same day when evening the evening had come he said to them seize Jesus go and let us go across to the other side let us go across to the other side mm-hmm so he's already spoken a word to them yeah there was their word you know and every word from God is everything we need to fulfill it that's all the power ever gonna need is it in every word that Jesus speaks every word from got one life from God changes everything come on he says when they got when they sent the crowd away they took him in the boat just as he was and they got in there with the other boats and their great windstorm aroma rose and the waves splashed the boat so that it was now filling and the boat with water and Jesus was asleep on the stern in the pillow and he won't come as a teacher do you not care that we are perishing mm-hmm you know isn't this amazing you're just talking about fear and I started thinking about this some people's motivation for receiving healing is because they're terrified of dying that's right well they're terrified of pain or the terrified of the consequences yeah and they will want to stand in faith but we can't stand in fear and face at the same time they're polar opposites yeah you see fear is the enemy of faith you can't resist what you're embracing exactly and so that you know they they had got Jesus in their boat Jesus the Messiah right the savior of the world some arrived in their boat son of God they're going out there the wind storm arose now to be fair hmm these are fishermen right yeah so this isn't like a little storm no wind froze at seeing stories right right so these aren't saying I like wimpy wimpy guys they are big strong fishermen and they are scared of the storm so you know it was a decent-sized it was a big deal the problem was they had gone from all we have a report from bad weather and there's a bit water coming in the boat we're all gonna die yeah that's right do we do that sometimes yeah you know two seconds flat oh yeah yeah we get we get we get one word and then we webmd it don't we yeah we do and then our imagination kicks in yeah we magnify all the symptoms and before long you got a full-fledged storm going on full-fledged in your brain in your brain and your imagination just gets out of control that's right Andrew was talking about this last night but yeah about harnessing our emotions but you know our imagination is linked to our emotions yeah as a man thinks in his heart so is he if any of you ever seen a scary movie you'll know that this is true right and I know you were way too Christian to ever see anything that's ever ungodly but for the heathens among you that may have seen a scary movie now and again you can probably relate to this right one of those ones afterwards you probably knew you shouldn't have watched Yeah right because you can still see it replaying you know when you watch something like that you know that no one was harmed in the making of that movie all of those actors they went home to there they were warm in their beds they were quite safe right the axe murderer didn't actually get them they were fine but while you're watching that your brain is connecting with what you're seeing on the screen and your emotions are starting to follow your heart is starting to beat just a little bit faster isn't it yep and then before you know it you've got the cushion and you're like you know creeping up and you've gone to the oh no repairing we're all gonna die right you've gotten there you've gotten there just like these fishermen did and you and fear is starting to have is perfect working your body yeah fury starting to manifest in your body suppose what you've been thinking upon what you've been watching what you've been receiving yep and then your actions start to follow what you've been watching they start to follow what you've been thinking on and you maybe turn the lights on mm-hmm or look for the boogeyman under the bed or go and check all the windows and doors are closed yeah right have you noticed that the fear starts to manifest in our actions based on how we've been thinking the same thing happened right here in this story he said they were they went from old Jesus has told us to go to the other side we've got the Son of God in a boat we're doing good we're on a journey too as soon as a challenge came oh no we're all gonna die yeah and immediately they jumped in to interfere so look at Jesus's response he says he rose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea peace be still yeah peace be still then the wind ceased and there was a great calm and he said to them why are you so fearful how is it that you have no face and now all marveling because the calm had had settled down in some translation it says where is your faith mm-hmm where is your faith you see if they froze for a moment recognize who it was that was in their boat that's right I would have known that the king of glory the Messiah the Son of God wasn't going to go down with the ship yeah right he's just because the wind storm had come just because circumstances have come just because the doctor's report had come against them just because the water was coming into their boat they would have recognized that the power that was with them was greater than any storm is coming against oh my goodness man fear will attach itself to us if we're not careful yeah and I like to think of it like this you know fear is nothing more than than faith that has become perverted yeah when we start to put more faith in what the enemy says to us on his words in his lies or maybe just not even in the lives of the enemy but just things that we're measuring in the natural in our feelings and our symptoms in our x-rays and their doctors reports when we start to put more trusting confidence remember faith is just trusting confidence yeah when we start to give more attention and more value to those things fear is going to manipulate faith we just put in faith in the wrong thing right that's all fear is is there is a perverted and a misplaced form of faith we've got more faith in the power of the enemy and the students around us than we have in the answer of Jesus and Karla is so amazing how you can go from such a small circumstance into magnifying this thing so quickly you know going from something that was you know false evidence appearing real that's a great acronym for fear for fear you know I love that outcome and for fear because it's like false evidence appearing real and so many times we magnify the symptoms we magnify the fear instead of magnifying God's Word exactly and you've got a classic story and I love the story oh my goodness every time there's two reasons why Daniel likes me to tell his story anyway so one night I was asleep in my bed peacefully peacefully dreaming and I noticed I was a rose in my slumber and I realized that I had somewhat of a sore throat you know a scratching us a soreness in the throat there and I was sorry I went to roll over man that's really weird I put like this sharp pain in my armpit I thought well that's coming from this that's really weird and then you know I had some medical training as a nurse so you know the middle of the night my own spiritual antenna maybe was not as sharp as it should have been and I started to to think about my training and think about what all these symptoms could mean referred pain yeah all of those things and they I came to the only conclusion that it could have been naturally and I was dying of leukemia what it was and I'm like but you know within a few minutes I had gone from almost a bit of a sore throat and a bit of a weird pain in my armpit and to obviously you know yeah I have cancer mass it must be you see my plates probably in my lymph nodes you know what I'm terminal yeah I think I'm probably in stage at this point and then I kind of said I started to think about this I kind of started to get sad and I thought to myself you know the honorable thing to do really would be to plan my funeral take the pressure of Ashley you know plan my funeral write my you over I won't wear eulogy picked my songs you know obviously pick the worship music for my funeral yeah actually leapin he doesn't care that I'm perishing um I'm dying in here and the man snoring away like nothing's happening I'm like this is not man this man God gave me he clearly doesn't care you know this is not a good picture of marriage he's supposed to stand with me in my pain and anguish so he wasn't waking up anyway he was like like raising the dead so I decided I'm gonna get up right I'm gonna get up go into the bathroom and I should probably pray you know it come to that right I mean I was gonna go meet my maker very soon you know I needed to to be emotionally prepared for that transition so I started us to share with the Lord you know I'm really low do this he's very selfish of you I'm I'm too young to die I've got three little children my husband definitely needs me to be here I'm just saying right I mean he doesn't know how to pack a lunch you know I mean seriously I don't know what's gonna what is gonna happen to these kids if I'm not here I had lots of good reasons right and and when I'd finished my belly aching and the Lord's like I done you finished you finished he says I said Lord I just need a word from you I just need a word to sustain me through because I'm perishing I'm in the fight of my life here okay this is this is desperate times and he said to me check your bra weight he's never said that to you never Luther not not once I thought well this is a very spiritual sounding is it I was expecting a deeper revelation of wisdom than life the Lord actually said check your bras so I asked him again so I said to him what was that excuse me come again sit check your bra so after a little bit of deep meditation on this there was no one to call at that time in the morning I could get second opinion right was gonna phone a friend I decided well you know there's nothing there's nothing else coming from from our Lord and Savior I'd better go and check my bra well you know what I went to check my bra and the strangest thing happened I found out the Lord reminded me when I went to bed I had a bit of a stuffy nose so um I'd probably been sleeping with my mouth open mm-hmm and then we're not wait to check my bra now ladies you'll understand you know when you need to replace a bra there's that little bit of underwire sometimes poke through the cloth there does it not come on now and well what happened dying your cancer after all I just needed to get a new bra right sometimes we misinterpret things and our imagination just went wild and you know why I love that story so much because because you're berry sees me every time yeah absolutely now the world national television is all talking about my bra I'm probably gonna get bra offerings I'm Michael especially just enlarge the place of my dwelling let it go let it go [Music] for some Chanel Oh my self-respect is left I loved so much that the Lord has a sense of humor and a merry heart truly does good like a medicine and it's amazing how we do this y'all I mean we magnify our circumstances over and over and over again and you know we become so much we we put ourselves in a position of torment right because we're looking at the natural we're elevating and exalting all of these natural circumstances it's amazing how many times a symptom can come and you can go to a doctor you can go to a friend and you know many times friends will even come into agreement with you over the symptoms right and you'll begin to elevate and exalt those symptoms as opposed to believing the report of the Lord so it's really important for us to receive by faith c-carly why do you think this is like you know you said you're born again yeah I'm pretty convincing yeah are you sure yeah so you believe that Jesus died for you on a cross paid for your sin have you seen them were you there when it happened no my face see and you believe you're going to have it absolutely have you been there technically no but you believe there is a heaven absolutely but you've never been there not in the flesh there's a complicated response to that which we don't have time for in four minutes so you believe you're gonna go spend eternity in a place where you've never been yes and you're willing to stake your life on it absolutely then what's the problem with healing right are we willing to to bet for a better word our eternal resting place and so you know we are fully convinced that we're going to spend eternity in heaven we're fully persuade really persuaded which is a far bigger thing then than healing but when it comes to healing we're not sure we're not sure it doesn't even make sense it doesn't make sense I believe that that Daniel there are some people in here that are ready to have an alpha right now right now right now you know we're not talking about hoping and wishing that when we pray for you the symptoms are gonna live you know we're not talking about when we pray for you that may be the power of God's gonna be released know that maybe maybe that pain is gonna leave your body that we're not we're not talking about something that doesn't have a guarantee we're gonna take by faith what Jesus has already provided yeah amen all right we have three minutes can we pray for everyone in three minutes we can do it come on stand up Geoffrey hallelujah we need to stretch ourselves anyway right you know Amy praise God amen you know we get this yesterday how many people have already received their healing put your hands up look around look at all of these people that's because when we speak faith it goes to it immediately the hearts of believers and immediately disease and sickness starts to leave immediately yep why are you leaving in preyed on you so here's what I'd like to do I would like to pray over you a prayer right now but I want you as believers we read it out of Mark 16 you're gonna lay your hands now I'm gonna lay my hands you're gonna lay your hands on the sick and they will recover so father in the name of Jesus I released the power of God in this place right now for believers ministry to be made manifest all over this auditorium and all over the internet wherever those who are watching and joining us we release the power of God for healing even in this moment right now over every sickness and disease over every name that is under the name of Jesus now go ahead and lay your hands on the sick if you're

blessing has been already this morning you may be seated but as you're seated let's welcome our new dean of instructors he was our dean of students but now he is our dean of instructors barry bennett who is gonna be coming today to take this next session so what up bless you Barry to have you with us today are we gonna let them get out you know I was so blessed to have Barry come and be a part of the healing is here event this year and Barry of course is no stranger to Karis Bible College or to the healing school he's ministered for us many times and he's also taught at other healing is here event I tell you what our students Barry is definitely one of our favorite instructors I describe him this way he is like a teachers teacher amen so let's receive this morning from Barry Bennett Thank You Barry 50 and a part of this today my brother love you amen amen good morning praise God this has been good I tell you what it's been hard for me to sit there and sit still Aiki everything they say I'm gonna preach that oh no I want to preach that I want to preach that I hope they don't preach that so and I know Audrey's probably feeling the same way and but this is exciting it's exciting to be in the presence of God it's exciting to be in the presence of of all of you and the expectation that's here this is super this is this is this is where it happens this is where it happens and I believe this is happening right now as we speak in I have a one of my favorite verses of many in Luke Luke 5:15 where it says that concerning Jesus and his ministry and multitudes following him and it says and they came to hear him and to be healed they came to hear him and to be healed and Daniel and Carly were saying something earlier just because we understand something doesn't mean we possess it yet and we have a week here for four full days of hearing and my prayer for each one of you not is just you know I want your understanding improved we all want more understanding but each of us needs to hear him not just with our physical ears but with our spirit our spirit needs to be quickened this week and one quickening moment one nanosecond of Revelation will heal you will heal you we need to come to hear him and to be healed that was how Jesus ministered he preached the kingdom he healed the sick they heard the word faith was born in their hearts they expected to be healed I want to take and I know everyone in its ministering this week we need to take healing out of the realm of the mystical of the superstitious of the wellmaybe and sometimes and who knows and if I hold my mouth right and if I hop on one leg and and and do a dance and if I fast for 40 days maybe no we need to take healing out of that realm of this who knows what God is going to do and we need to take this back unto a fundamentally solid foundation of it is already accomplished it has already finished there is no if ands and buts about this Healing is yours Healing is available just as much as salvation from sin is available to every person on this earth there is nothing mystical about it we've created some mysticism around it some superstitions but we want to do away with that and I you know in the in the moments I have with you this morning then I get to be back tonight I can hardly wait I'm gonna try not to preach tonight's message today but you don't want to miss it but I want to go over some some things with you if some of you hopefully some of you are taking notes I'm gonna give you some things to write down all right so if you will go with me to mark chapter 2 now when I read out of the bible i'm reading king james when i read from my notes are meeting new king james just deal with it okay all right I'm in a transition period okay all right so mark chapter 2 verse 1 and again he entered into Capernaum after some days it was noted noise that he was in the house and straightway many were gathered together in so much that there was no room to receive them no not so much as about the door and he preached the word unto them there there's the preaching of the word the hearing of the word and they come unto him bringing one sick of the palsy which was borne a four and when they could not come nigh him for the press they uncovered the roof so you can picture them going through the crowd finding a way up onto the roof and beginning to pull the roof apart they uncovered the roof where he was and when they had broken it up they let down the bed we're in the sick of the palsy lay when Jesus saw their faith there's a whole message right there he said unto the sick of the palsy son thy sins be forgiven thee son thy sins be forgiven thee and I teach this in my healing course and another messages but I'm sure that came to him as a bucket of cold water like yeah ok but that's not why I'm here my sins are forgiven but that's not why I just went through this ordeal of being let through a hole in the son thy sins be forgiven thee but there were certain of the scribes sitting there and reasoning in their hearts why does this man speak blasphemies who can forgive sins but God only and immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves he said unto them why reason ye these things in your hearts which is easier to say to the sick of the palsy thy sins be forgiven or to say arise take up your bed and walk okay quick pop quiz in today's church world which is easier to say your sins are forgiven someone asked how many of you came with some kind of affliction last night or yesterday and they said 80% of the hands went up that should not be the state of the church James asks in James chapter 5 is there any sick among you as if that would be an exception today the question is is there anyone here who's not sick there is something wrong in the body of Christ and we have not understood what was accomplished for us on the cross Jesus said what is easier to say so let's let's continue reading I'll go back to verse 9 whether is it easier to say to the sick of the palsy thy sins be forgiven thee or to say arise take up thy bed and walk but that you may know that the Son of man has power on earth to forgive sins he says to the sick of the palsy I say to the arise take up thy bed and go thy way unto thy house and he gets up and everybody marvelous Jesus is making a point here that we need to understand he is tying healing to forgiveness of sin he is saying that if his sins are forgiven then the healing issue is dealt with righteousness Trump's sickness and when sickness is forgiven that's the power of righteousness at work I have authority on earth to forgive sin let me show you get up because why if you've dealt with the root you've dealt with the fruit how does sickness get into the earth to begin with sin sin opened the door to death and sickness is incipient death or sickness is death in its first stages every sickness exists to steal kill and destroy every sickness if it could would kill you even the common cold if it could it would kill you if you're in a weakened state it could kill you sickness is part of the power of darkness we'll talk about that more in just a moment and he says if if your sins are forgiven then the root of the problem that which allowed the problem into creation if that has been dealt with then the symptoms of the problem have been dealt with let me show you says Jesus to the scribes he says what's easier to say your sins are forgiven or get up and walk and they're all thinking who knows what they're thinking but I know what we're thinking in our day it's a lot easier to say your sins are forgiven there's no proof in the pudding there but to show you the power of forgiving sins watch this get up take up your pallet and go home demonstrating that the physical healing power was directly tied to the invisible forgiving power and that when the forgiving took place the healing was a byproduct if we would understand this how many of you in this room are a new creation righteousness of God in Christ amen not so many hands on that one okay that's the problem okay if we would understand that that when our sins got forgiven and we became a new creation the righteousness of God in Christ a new creation that says in Ephesians I believe created in righteousness sin lost its authority write this down if you're if you're taking notes write this down sickness must submit to righteousness sickness must submit to righteousness the authority of darkness including sickness the authority is sin or in other words apart from sin sickness and darkness have no authority sin is their authority and I'm not necessarily speaking of personal sin though that can be an area to talk about but sin in the earth sin in the human race what sin has done to creation sin is the authority for sickness to exist therefore if we deal with the sin problem we've dealt with the sickness problem the moment you got born again you had the authority to take up your pallet and walk it's as if if you get a new when I when I they mentioned that I've changed positions after seven years as dean of students there was a coup and so I'm not that anymore I am now the Dean of instructors and so anyway I'm looking forward to a new a new year of new challenges and new opportunities it's going to be great but with the title of Dean of Students with the job of Dean of Students the most important part of that is that I got a parking spot my park on right out back first first car right out the door that's my spot number 77 blessed bless number amen with the job came a parking spot anybody following me with the forgiveness came healing now you know what upsets me I'm a pretty calm person I'm friendly I'm warm and fuzzy but when I Drive up there somebody's in my parking spot I'm on the phone to security security do you know somebody's in my spot well that's Jamie Womack Oh [Applause] no no it's never been Jamie she knows better anyway when you got forgiven you got a parking spot don't let any sickness Park in your spot they go together if you got forgiven you got healed don't let something park in your body that's not supposed to be there take authority over that praise God all right go to with me to Luke 13 verse 16 Luke 13 verse 16 I won't read the whole passage there was a woman who had been bent over for 18 years and Jesus saw her in the synagogue and as I understand that the synagogue was divided into two sections and so she's on the female side and he sees her and calls her to himself which was a major act of faith on her part to even come to him in front of the whole thing and he gets into this debate with the Pharisees and the religious and it says in Luke 13 verse 16 then should not this woman being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound these eighteen years be loosed from this bondage on the Sabbath there's a lot going on in Nevers they're upset that he may heal her and he may do it on the Sabbath okay that's that's a message there I'm not going to go there he says then should not this woman point one he is going to and I teach this in one of my courses elevate the position of women through this women were second-class citizens or worse and so he's pointing out she's a woman should not this woman being a daughter of Abraham now this is the first time we ever find anyone use that phrase we are children of Abraham the seed of Abraham sons of Abraham no one has ever pointed out that a woman is a daughter of Abraham daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound so he has identified the problem and here's a bit here's an interesting question why why did Jesus have multitudes of people to heal why were there multitudes that were sick in Israel in his day well read Deuteronomy 28 what is the conclusion there were all the law breakers that's why they were sick if they had been heating the voice of God they wouldn't be sick and they weren't and so all of these sicknesses existed in Israel and you have to come to the conclusions because they were breaking the law the law of Moses and yet that didn't stop him from healing everyone that came to him let me say this we've heard these testimonies of people that have built a strong foundation in the Word of God so that when the storm comes they have something to stand on to hold cling to to speak they know what to do and some of you in this room are thinking but I don't have a foundation am i out of the picture here there is grace for you right now the people that came to Jesus didn't have a strong foundation they were lawbreakers the woman with the issue of blood had gone to every physician around spent all her money on doctors Jesus did not get offended there is grace for you whether you have a strong foundation right now or not healing is for you because if you've been forgiven you've been healed praise God and so he refers to her as a daughter of Abraham and he says should not this woman being a daughter of Abraham what does that mean in other words there is a covenant that precedes the law that is a better covenant upon which the New Covenant is birthed we are children of Abraham seed of Abraham blessed Jesus doesn't refer to the law covenant when he describes her condition he takes her back to the Abrahamic covenant and refers to her and identifies her as a member of that covenant of promise he doesn't even refer to the fact that she's bent over and oppressed by a demonic force because of the law he doesn't go there there's grace for you folks he takes it back to the better covenant and in taking it back to the better covenant he says should not this woman being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound these 18 years because of the law he could have said that because of the law she's been bound for 18 years but she's a daughter of Abraham there's something better than the law shouldn't she be loosed from this bondage sickness is never referred to as a blessing in the Bible it's always a curse it's oppression its bondage its affliction it's never a blessing it's never a blessing shouldn't this daughter of Abraham be loosed from this bondage on the Sabbath write this down if you're taking notes a covenant of blessing is stronger than the power of darkness a covenant of blessing the Covenant of Abraham is stronger than the power of darkness this came to me the other day and I wrote this on one of my Facebook pages when the power of sin was broken and guilt free living became available through faith in Jesus sickness lost its authority let me say it again when the power of sin was broken on the cross and guilt free living became available through faith in Jesus sickness lost its authority how many of you have experienced guilt free living there's some wavering out there did you know that if you've been justified by the blood of Jesus and you have faith in that blood you should have beef sin conscious free free from sin consciousness you shouldn't do guilt don't do guilt don't go there you may have a past I have a past everybody has a past your past isn't going to heal you being free from the power of sin will heal you understanding that when you were forgiven you got a parking spot you got healed Healing is yours and if you have a covenant a better covenant than that of the law and everyone in this room does we've never been under the law to begin with we are children of Abraham better than yet better than that we are the new creation we have the better covenant established upon better promises Hebrews 8:6 and these promises have been given to us to help us escape the corruption that is in the world through lust 2nd Peter 1 2 through 4 we've got a bitter promise we have a better covenant so a covenant of blessing is stronger than the power of Darkness getting ahead of myself here go to Colossians 1:13 and 14 Colossians 1:13 and 14 says I love this he has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us this is New King James says translated us in King James conveyed us unto the into the kingdom of the son of his love and King James says his dear son that were dear or son of his love that word is agape agape he has conveyed us into the kingdom of the son of his love in whom we have redemption through his blood the forgiveness of sins we've already discussed what happens with forgiveness of sins healing let me take these in reverse we have been forgiven of our sins we have been redeemed unto Him we belong to him now adopted into his family we have been delivered from the power of darkness and we have been conveyed into his kingdom man there's a lot there we've been forgiven but not only that folks we've been redeemed unto Him we are his possession we have been delivered from the power of darkness let's talk about that a minute let's talk about kingdoms and cultures Daniel and Carly touched on that little bit every Kingdom has a culture the power of Darkness has a culture the kingdom of God has a culture we were missionaries for many years in South America's most Lee in Chile 12 years approximately in Chile and when I went to Chi when I took my family we went to Chile my goal was to become inculturated we're on other words I wanted to become like them because I wanted to reach them and so we spent years in Chile and we learned the culture I had to I had to change some things about the way I do things because the culture is different I had to relearn how to drive a car I had to learn how to be very aggressive I enjoyed that it's kind of like the Indianapolis 500 in a city of 5 million people with no freeways okay it was far out it was cool I had to relearn how to cross a street and survive okay look like American Ninja Warrior takraw I had I had to learn the culture I had to learn the food and what would they eat but what's the most important thing about a culture that you that you have to learn the language the language is the culture and so we had to learn Spanish I ministered for 18 years in Spanish 12 in Chile and six more in Dallas after we came back I had a Spanish Bible college there and so Spanish became my new culture when we are translated here's what happens when we get translated from the power of darkness or let's say the culture of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God we've made a culture change and what happens to most of us is that we stay rooted in the culture of Darkness because that's all we've ever known and we're unwilling to make a change into the culture of the kingdom and what is the first thing that should change when you change cultures language you've got to learn a new way to talk and when I and I'm not I've talked to a number of you have prayed with a number of you already since we since we've been here this week and please don't take this in the wrong way but you can tell people that are still living under the culture of darkness by the way they talk and again cure my heart this is to enlighten not to offend but you can't in the kingdom of God say I have cancer you can't say in Kingdom language I have this and I have that you can't take possession of something that was done away with on the cross you're still talking the wrong language if you have it give it back you shouldn't have it now there may be something trying to attack you and I know Daniel and Carly have said this over and over I say this quite a bit you aren't the Sikh trying to get well you are the healed resisting sickness that's Kingdom talk no weapon formed against me shall prosper that's Kingdom talk you've got to learn how to talk in the kingdom you've got to learn a new language you've got to learn a new culture you've got to learn a new way to to hold yourself to walk the way you see things the vision they were talking about vision the imagination hope you've got to change your culture if you're going to walk in health you can't walk in health and walk in this culture of darkness you can't talk the way they talk you can't expect what they expect folks this whole culture that we're living in today the society we're living in today is darkness as anyone noticed it's all about setting parameters for your life of how long you should live and when things begin to fail and what drugs are for that right and everything is about the drugs that then the symptoms and what's the what's the word for the drugs the side effects of the drugs are worse than the problem many times all right that's culture and we as Christians have yet to make the switch many times into Kingdom culture we understand it but it's not what you understand that sets you free it's what you know by what you hear in your spirit man we have got to seek first the kingdom culture the kingdom language the Kingdom way of seeing things and realizing that if I'm in the kingdom and I forgiven of sin then sickness is a dead issue now your body may take a while to respond to that revelation but it will if you will keep in the say in the kingdom your body has no choice but to respond to a superior power the Spirit of God has a superior power the Word of God is a superior power to the word of men I'm going to share a couple stories here two years that I've shared this before so some of you may have heard it but two years ago I went I had a well let me go back 1986 I was diagnosed with malignant melanoma on my back which I understand is not not a good thing all right when in doctor says I need to take that off in the same office visit he took it off says I'm gonna do a biopsy on this call you let you know calls me a week later it is malignant melanoma you need to come back I'm gonna take some more so there took some out of my back and I had no problem with that at the time that just seemed like this is this is the way to go I had peace with that decision two years ago because I am I'm familiar with skin issues and I want to make sure that I don't let the enemy get a foothold anywhere I went in to have something looked out on my face and not in my ear and the doctor says well this is easy I'll just freeze this but this thing in your ear that's not good I know Andrew was talking last night about his ear so I have an ear story too I try to keep up with Andrew and so he says that's not good so I'm gonna do a biopsy on that and so he did a biopsy on it and he called me a week later and he says this is this is cancer and you need to have an operation and he said after the operation then we'll do plastic surgery those words right there faith was born now I had two reactions the first one was no and then I gave it some thought and I thought well why stop there just do the whole thing plastic surgery you know anyway something rose up within me and I just no no see I it wasn't weighing the options it was just no my spirit got quickened with no two weeks later I get a certified letter in the mail because I had failed to make an appointment I get a certified letter in the mail you must come in and have this surgery in this plastic surgery and all this stuff you must know I must not now I am not don't follow my example you follow what God tells you 1986 I had it cut off in 2000 and whatever 16 the Lord said no all right a year goes by one year ago from right now completely healed completely healed it's been another year absolutely pristine yeah I have great looking ears yeah we're getting bigger but whatever but you have to hear from God you have to hear from God that's why my book hearing God I told me it's already sold out now so hopefully they'll get some more in it but everything depends upon hearing from God but you've got to understand culture and you've got to understand when the Spirit of God speaks to you sometimes the word know is the most powerful word the Spirit has when they told me my son was dead in the womb dead in the womb 40 years ago no came out of me no 39 years old just slime 2 weeks ago they were when I was I went into an MRI machine I didn't write a song but I was in an MRI and it was diagnosed I won't go into the whole long story but the mother of all kidney stones and then I said okay well what can you do because I was I was open to anything at that point and they said this is what we need to do and when I heard what they wanted to do for those of you in the medical profession I said no faith was born you know it is funny sometimes faith will get born by the by reading the word or hearing you know sometimes faith gets born when you hear the doctor say blessed God know and so I went home with the mother of all kidney stones and two days later it passed without any pain okay the people this that stand up here and teach you have gone through the things they're teaching I have other stories I'm not gonna bore you with all my stories thankfully none of them are dramatically serious but when something comes like it when I find something in my parking place I change demeanor it's like Andrew was saying I get angry I refuse to be sick I refuse to give in and you have got to know that you have a covenant that is a covenant of blessing that is stronger than the power of darkness you have a culture a culture of the kingdom that is stronger than the power of the culture of darkness you've been forgiven the root has been dug up the fruit quit putting up with it sickness is a function of the power of darkness lost corruption poverty all of those things are functions of the power of darkness but we have been so indoctrinated into the culture of darkness that we still speak that language we still expect what everyone else expects we still gauge our progress based upon how we're feeling what are your feelings have to do with it this is a very feeling oriented culture that we live in right now it's a very me focused culture anyone notices everything is about how you feel and whether or not you've been offended if somebody said something to hurt your little feelings feelings my feelings how to end that the first question that you find on any interview of sports sports events or whatever how did that make you feel who cares how did tell me how did that make you feel it's like what planet are you from why do you care how I feel I just won the World Series how does that make me feel good I've got two feelings good not so good but that's the culture how do you feel about this or you can stand on God's Word you can stand on the promises of God you can decide that this word is true I don't care what I feel doesn't matter what I feel my feelings have got a bow the knee praise God don't let cut the culture of darkness steal your parking place healing came with the job healing came with forgiveness healing came with salvation healing is part of the package tonight I'm gonna go into this and even in more detail please come back tonight it's a praise God but you have an inheritance let's look at one more let's go to well let me go to proverbs 4:23 22 proverbs 4:23 22 proverbs 4 20 says my son give attention to my words I'm gonna teach you how to change cultures ok give attention to my words incline your ear to my sayings do not let them depart from your eyes keep them in the midst of your heart for their life to those who find them and health to all their flesh Oh hallelujah man there's your healing right there if the doctor tells you to take this three times a day for six weeks you'll do it if God says incline your ear to my word well if I have time how many of you have dogs come on all your dog people okay I loved it last night when when Andrew says something about throwing a cat through the wall man after my own heart okay I just lost half of you okay that's all right you that have dogs the dog can be dead asleep you know where I'm going and you can go in and begin just begin to start to think about preparing the dog food and the dog is out to the world and here's the first I think they just sense the vibrations and what's the first thing that hit here goes up and then they hear the second little thing happening and then the head goes up and then if you're in the kitchen you hear this galloping trumpet rump and then the sliding across the kitchen floor bang into you and then the eyes are fixed on you and on every movement that dog is following and you say stupidly are you hungry and the dog I do a pretty good dog read this again with that in mind [Laughter] my son give attention to my words incline your ear to my sayings do not let them depart just like a dog will watch every move do not let them depart from your eyes keep them in the midst of your heart for their life to those who find them and health to all your flesh folks that's kingdom culture that's how you change Kingdom you can't incline your ear to the doctor and I have nothing against doctors doctors but listen I say this all the time a doctor can be your servant but he cannot be your Lord he cannot be your Lord Jesus is Lord incline your ear to his word do not let it depart from your sight keep it in the midst of your heart for there is your health it's in another kingdom it's in another culture you can't live in this culture and get those rewards you've got to change cultures you got to change you gotta learn a new language praise God does anybody get anything yet let's go to mark five famous story that I've used probably thousands of times but let's go to mark five verse twenty five and a certain woman which had an issue of blood twelve years and had suffered many things of many physicians and had spent all that she had and was nothing bettered but rather grew worse and said I love the fact that Jesus didn't get offended that she had spent all of her money on doctors and he did he could have said in I'm plan B what's up with that he didn't go there listen there's grace for you right now whatever you've done wherever you've been whatever your past whatever your relationship with doctors is it doesn't matter there's grace for you right now your sins have been forgiven Healing is your right okay she rather grew worse verse 27 when she heard of Jesus she heard she heard all you need to do this week is here here's something somebody's gonna say something that you're gonna hear somebody is going to say something I'm not talking about physical I'm saying someone is going to say something that you are going to hear with your spirit and that's when the victory starts she heard of Jesus and she came in the press behind and touched His garment for she said if I may but touch his clothes I shall be whole and straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague and Jesus immediately knowing himself that virtue had gone out of him she she took her healing without even a pre healing interview knowing that virtue had gone out of him turned him about in the press and said who touched my clothes he didn't even know who it was and the disciples said you see the multitude thronging and you say who touched me and he looked about and said to her that and looked looked around about to her that had done this thing but the woman fearing and trembling knowing what was done came and fell down before him and told him all the truth and he said daughter your faith has made you whole go in peace and be whole of your plague now there's so many different directions and layers to this it's so rich but I want to give you four things real quick that took place here at least four I mean there's many things taking place here but this woman and it was mentioned yesterday she was unclean she shouldn't even be out in public and she's a woman all right so she everything's against her but she chose to identify with the kingdom rather than the darkness she chose to identify with we could say righteousness though that wasn't a fully developed subject at the moment but she chose to identify with Jesus and not with the crowds not with the curse of the law not with the potential of being stoned to death she didn't identify with that she chose to change what she was going to identify with trying to help you change kingdoms change cultures you choose what you identify with you're going to choose whether you identify with what happened to Aunt Tilly and what happen what the doctor said and what everybody else is saying and what the news says and what the side effects are you're gonna choose if you're gonna identify with that or if you're gonna identify if the Word of God you're inclining your ear to something you are giving your attention to something she did not fear the curse of the law she chose to expect the blessings of the Covenant she chose to believe in the mercy of Jesus she chose she chose everyone in this room has the power to choose and what you choose the the kingdom I forgot to give you one earlier the kingdom we identify with is the one that will have the greatest influence in our lives the kingdom we choose to identify with is the one that will have the greatest influence in our lives and by default most of us are still identifying with the power of darkness speaking their language expecting their results but she chose something different she chose to go out of the house she chose to go through oppressive people she chose to sneak up behind Jesus she chose to see the end from the beginning she chose to sit she says if I may but touch the hem of His garment she what Daniel and Carly were talking about about the vision about the imagination she chose to see her celfon down the road healed fighting just touched the hem of His garment I can see what the next stuff is I'm gonna be dancing down the street I can see that she chose that she made those decisions knowledge of your rights gives birth to expectation knowledge of your rights gives birth to expectation knowledge of your inheritance gives birth to action she I can't say she had all that she had enough knowledge to get her down the road to Jesus but we have a whole lot more than she did and we've been transferred we've been translated we've been delivered from the power of darkness and put into a different Kingdom with a different language and different promises and different expectations but if we refuse to make the switch then we're gonna keep dealing dealing with all of this stuff over here and sickness and loss and stealing and killing and destroying and pain and suffering and my feelings and how does that make you feel and all this kind of stuff or you can incline your ear to the new kingdom and the righteousness and the inheritance and knowing you have rights and if you have right you have expectation and when you find out you have an inheritance if you found out that Uncle Joe died and left you 2 million dollars how many of you it would get active what do I have to do well the all the paperwork's in Chicago ok calling Chicago calling the airlines in other words action is going to follow the expectation of an inheritance that's why these people went to Jesus s why they tore the roof off the house that's why they called out to him over and over again blind Bartimaeus that's why the woman of the issue of let you she had an expectation of her inheritance she had an expectation of what was due her she felt worthy do you feel worthy do you feel worthy does it have anything to do with your feelings see if you based your worthiness on how you feel you're gonna go up and down why don't we change that - have you been made worthy have you been created in worthiness are you adopted into the family do you have rights do you have an inheritance are you a part of a new culture have you learned its language do you understand its expectations its promises are you inclining your ear is it in the midst of your heart are you seeking it with all your heart and there's enough healing for every person in this room there's enough healing for every person on this earth in the Word of God if you're willing to change cultures amen can I pray for you praise God hallelujah want you stand I'm Minister more tonight but I just want to just want to seal this with prayer hallelujah father the light went on in a number of hearts this morning things are being quickened things are being heard things are being cemented into the spirits of many people in this room right now and those watching online a kingdom as being kingdoms are being changed cultures are being changed understanding dis coming but more importantly hearing us coming quickening us taking place enough is enough some of you just need to say no no to whatever it is that's in your spot no to whatever is trying to take over your life you just need to say no and then you can turn and say yes to the promises of God all of them are yes and amen praise God and some of you need to stand up and start doing some stuff that you couldn't do when you got here some of you I don't know what your what your case is but father in the name of Jesus we believe right now that we receive our inheritance of healing the power of God in our bodies to set us free we are healed every cell is being touched by the power of the Spirit our youth is being renewed like the Eagles we walk in health because we're of a different culture were of the kingdom and father we thank you we give you all the praise in the glory and the powerful name of Jesus amen and amen thank you [Applause] can
