Every believer
has a voice. And it's the
Voice of Victory. ♪ ♪ My God has made a way for me Hello everybody, I'm
Kenneth Copeland, this is the Believer's
Voice of Victory broadcast. Let's pray. Father, we thank You today. Oh, the things that
we're learning, the things that enhance our
healing and our well-being. Thank You. We praise You. Thank God for ministers
of the Gospel. - Yeah, I remember that. Thank You. Yes. Thank You, God. I'll do it again. - And this man, Donald
Colbert, medical doctor, Mary Colbert, Rhema graduate. Yes. Amen. Glory to God. Ministers of the Gospel. I remember. And we're talking about the
book that Dr. Colbert has just written. This is hot off the
press, Healthy Gut Zone. This area here has to do
with everything alive. God created everything
to be nourished to live. He created it that way. He created it, and
he's a good God. So everything he
created was good. Now we're the ones that fouled
it up, but he created it good. It was good. And he saw that
it was very good. Then he saw something that
wasn't all that good. The man was by himself,
he needed a woman. And so a whoa man. So handmade, took a rib, and
made this gorgeous thing. Don't you know, she was so
beautiful and so fine that Adam walked away from what
he knew in order to keep her. Anyway, my whole
point is this. When Adam's body was created,
it was exactly like God. God needed a body. Then Jesus, born of
a woman, born of God. And the scripture says he is
the second and last Adam. Now when we get to heaven
and we see Adam and Jesus, we're going to be astonished. They're going to
look exactly alike. They look exactly alike. They're the same
size, everything. Amen. So now this book that the
Spirit of God has written through this
apostle of healing. Remember when the Lord said
that to you through me? - Yes. It was about 20 years ago. - Yeah. I was at your place. - Right. Right. - And standing
in your kitchen. - Right. I remember that. - I was standing there,
and I heard the word. "You tell him, and you
lay your hands on him, and you say this to him, that
he is an apostle of healing." - Uh-uh. - Amen. And so why? God has sent Dr. Donald
Colbert to the body of Christ, to us, to bring God's truth
concerning this body and the things that we can do,
the things that as we aid, now, just before they turned the
camera on, I heard this. "You have to read
this in faith." - Yes you do. Yes. - Yeah, that's right. - Now. How many times do you suppose
the word faith is used in the New Testament? I don't know. I'm going to find out. "Whosoever believeth that
Jesus is the Christ is born of God. You're born of God. Amen. You're born of God. God's own offspring. And everyone that loves him
that was born, loves him also, that's born of him. By this, we know we love
the children of God when we love God and keep
his commandments. For this is loving God that
we keep his commandments. His commandments
are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of
God overcometh the world. And this is the victory
that overcometh the world, even our faith. Who is he that
overcomes the world, but he that believes that
Jesus is the son of God." Who is he that
overcomes cancer? We do. - Amen. - Because we have
faith in God. So now I have to
read this in faith, because the same spirit that
wrote this, this Bible, wrote this. Because he's the one that
called Dr. Colbert to go into medicine. He's the one that
called him to do it. I don't think you really
intended to do that in the beginning. - No, I didn't. - He was a guitar
picker and a muscle guy. - Yeah, right, I
worked out. Yes. - And I remember
those power guys. I didn't remember him
being one of them. - Well, I was one
of the very first. When John Jacob went to ORU
with me, we used to work out. He was my workout partner
at Oral Roberts University. - John Jacob is
one that I met, but I probably met you
and didn't remember. - No, it was just
the two of them. - Well, at first. - They'd go into high school
at the beginning at ORU. - At the very beginning. And then I went
into med school. - These guys do the old phone
book deal and all this. Yeah. But you have to
read this in faith. But because what Dr. Donald
Colbert has put in here has come, not only from what he
has learned in medicine, and all forms of medicine in
order to learn this body, in order to teach you and
me what to do with it. But I've known this
man for a lot of years, and he's a man of faith. - Amen. - Everything he
does is about faith. He believes God,
praising the Spirit, and believes God before
he does anything. That's the reason he is so
prolific in writing books to help us. They just flow out of him
the way these letters flowed out of the men of
God that wrote these. It's the same process. So faith will work as we read
this the same as it will when we read this. So you talk. - Well, what I've found,
again, so many Christians, their God is their belly. And the Holy Spirit wants
everyone to know that out of your belly shall flow
rivers of living water. - I was just
thinking about that. - And the thing is this,
instead of we have to repent of literally making
our belly our gods, and choosing the wrong foods. We are unknowingly inviting
diseases into our bodies. Galatians 6:7 and 8
says, God is not mocked. Whatsoever you sow,
you will also reap. - That's right. - He who sows to the
flesh shall of the flesh, reap corruption, destruction,
cancer, arthritis, all diseases literally are
from sowing to the flesh, but he who sows to the
Spirit will have life and life everlasting. So how do we make that
transition from our body, or our belly being our God,
to being literally out of our belly shall flow
rivers of living water? Well again, we've got
to get in the Word. We've got to not
just get the Word, we've got to learn the Word. We've got to speak the Word. And we've got to use
our imagination to activate our faith. - Let me plug this in here. Christians everywhere call
this the Word of God. It is. But not being covenant minded,
every time I hear the words, the Word of God, I
think about his bond. He's not a man
that he should lie. If he said it, it's true. This is a copy of two
blooded covenants. First one in the
blood of animals. And then that progressed into
the blood of a man through circumcision. And then the second covenant
in the blood of Jesus or the blood of God. So this, the Word, when
you're in the Word, faith comes by hearing,
hearing by the Word of God. You begin to realize
everything he said in here has power. So every everything that the
Lord led you to talk about in that book has power. - Especially Brother
Copeland, if people are struggling
with IBS, acid reflux, GERD, ulcers, and ulcerating
colitis, celiac disease, Crohn's disease, bacterial
and fungal overgrowth, auto-immune diseases,
brain-related conditions. It goes on and on. - Depression, anxiety,
autism, just all kinds, even obesity, we now see
links back to the gut. ADHD, hyperactivity in kids,
Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dementia, it all has
a root in the gut. What's so amazing, they find
that people with Alzheimer's disease generally
have leaky gut. They have elevated, I talk
about LPS from saturated fats, that lard, that
butter, that cream, literally causes these
lipopolysaccharides from gram negative bacteria to
hide and ride on these
saturated fats. And they create what
we call a leaky brain. So the Alzheimer's patients
have three times the amount of lipopolysaccharides that
create inflammation, but it's in the brain. And so we're learning
there's a huge gut, brain connection with
depression, with anxiety, with all of these issues
that deal with the brain, you deal with the gut
first and foremost. - Now we believe in faith. We believe in the Word of God. And hey, you can
pray over your food. And if you can turn
water into wine, that's awesome if you
have that kind of faith, but I think the majority of
people don't have that ability to turn water into wine. So what you are putting into
your body matters, it matters. It matters in every way. You pray over it and bless
it, that'll cause no harm, but you can't knowingly be
putting in like a plane, he couldn't go over and put
water into his jets and expect it to- - Or gasoline
into your jet aircraft. - You couldn't
put gas in there. - You can't do
that and then, "Oh, he could do it
by faith." Well, I'm just going to believe
this water is going to... - When I first
started training, the first large jet
that I was training on, was a four engine
Lockheed Jetstar. And my instructor
was a Christian man. And we first got there and
then he knew who I was and on television and all that. And it was interesting,
our first day in there. And he went through
a lot of stuff. And he said, "Now do you
have any more questions?" And I said, "No."
He said, "I do. Let's talk about tithing." So he was really
interested in that. Now this came across his
thinking and he said it to me, "You can't be a fool
and use your faith where good procedure is
concerned." - Amen. - Now, I already knew
that, because the Lord had previously really
put that to me. You don't mess
around when you fly, you don't listen to anything. And there are other
people that get in there and listen to radio and stuff
while they're flying. No, never. I won't ever do that. And then I said,
"Oh, I use my faith, but not in place
of." - That's good. - And I remember the thing
that came out of my mouth. I said, "I use my
faith, but my faith does not replace my checklist."
- It's good. - My faith is important,
but so is that checklist. That checklist is
put in proper order. You check it off in order. The manufacturer decided
that after a lot of testing, you do it in order, you
don't leave out an item, even if you have
memorized the checklist, you go back and you do it
item, by item, by item. Many, many crashes
have occurred, particularly in
larger airplanes, just because somebody didn't
set the flaps where it needed to be, and killed a bunch of
people, including themselves. - So the faith cannot do
away with the checklist. - Well, that's why I
have in there checklists, foods that damage the gut. - That's it. - And the number one
food is usually sugar. That's one of the
number one foods, also- - That's really
the culprit, isn't it, in most cases? - Yeah but also, and what
happened to me, again, I'm speaking from 35
years of experience, and I used to get horrible
sinus infections, but I was inviting sinus
infections into my body by the foods I was choosing,
because I love cheese. Our body is not
designed to eat, but a little teeny
amount of cheese. Why? Cheese has a protein
in it that's casein A1, most all dairy cows have
casein A1 and casein A2. It's the casein A1 that's
inflammatory and mucus producing. Well just so, it swells the
lining of the sinuses and the turbinates in the
nose, creates congestion, mucus buildup, where the
mucus can't exit properly, gets thick, and infected,
and boom, sinus infections, ear infections. How many patients, and kids,
and adults are treated over the years by having them
lay dairy on the altar. You say, "How long? I got to have dairy,
they say., I got to. That's one of the most
important things." No, it's not. - No, it isn't. - Dairy is highly
inflammatory to most people. Now, if you eat goat
cheese or feta cheese, that's not nearly as
inflammatory as cow's milk with casein A1. And also, it inflames the gut. I have seen so many gut issues
by eating cheese and wheat. - And one thing I
learned recently, and I think this is very
important for the women to hear, is I was
talking with Don, and some of the knowledge
he has just is amazing. Because sometimes he
doesn't tell everything. He just learns, and reads,
and goes to seminars. So he's this wealth
of information. I said, "Don, help me
understand children. They come here perfect. And they haven't sinned. They haven't done anything. But yet, we'll see issues
with babies and children. Like for example, Don, help me
understand type one diabetes in children. What is it?" He said, "Mary, if mommas
with breast milk-" - Would breastfeed. - Breastfeed, you would
see type one diabetes in children plummet. One thing. - One thing we
find with a lot, not everyone with type one
diabetes in children, infancy, many of these kids
had developed, again, there's the word
again, leaky gut, increased intestinal
permeability, because they're not meant to
have the big milk protein from cows, from mama's milk. It's totally different. - So it flips an auto immune
reaction in their body and it creates type one
diabetes. - It does. It sets the stage for type
one diabetes, not in every
child, but- - So that does
completely away with generational curses. - That's exactly right. - Inviting it in. - Well, the Lord dealt with
me about that a long time ago. He said, "there's no such
thing as that." He said, "The way you were raised
is what you do." - Right. - So if the devil is able
to get something in there, then your parents
teach it to you, then you teach it
to your parents, and so forth down the line. It's the same devil. He just stayed. So it's not just because
it's a different generation. It's because you learned what
you learned from your parents. - Absolutely. That's like me. I was born in
Mississippi, in the south. I was taught to eat. If you had beans,
or butter beans, there was bacon
grease in there. - Well, sure. - My mom would literally
have a coffee cup, a big coffee cup,
full of bacon grease. - Well sure, you were supposed
to have that on the stove. - And she would
put two, or three, or four tablespoons right
there on all the beans. All the food had to
have bacon grease in it. - That's what made
everything taste good. - Well, my mother had
a large mason-
- Jar. - jar right there
on the stove, so she fried the bacon and
poured the grease off, and it just turned into
that nasty looking old yellow looking stuff. And then she would take
what she did yesterday, and take a big gob of
that, and make gravy and put it on biscuits. - My dad, when I
was a little boy, used to make me eat
the fat off the steak. - Your arteries are
full of plastic. - But these are habits
we developed as kids. We would get corn bread. Corn bread was our main bread. - Oh, absolutely. - And then after dinner,
everyone would get a dessert. My mom would make
great cakes and pies, but I didn't like it. I didn't like
the bacon grease. I didn't like the corn bread. I didn't like that. My dad would make me eat
the fat off the steak. You cleaned every
bite off that plate. And literally
he'd make eat it, and I would be
gagging on that fat. And my body was
repelled, repelled. - I hated it. - But then I had to rethink
this, and I said, "Wait a sec, I have been taught wrong." A
lot of the people that are sick and from the Southwest,
they're raised many times on Mexican food, lots of beans,
lots of peas, lots of lentils, lots of flour, lots of queso,
lots of corn tortillas. That's why there's such an
obesity problem in Texas. It usually leads the
country in obesity because they're corn fed. We feed corn to our cattle, to
our pigs, to fatten them up. There's nothing that fattens
you up more than corn. But I'm eating popcorn. It's still going
to fatten you up. Corn is corn, because why? Not only because of
the nature of corn, it's almost all
genetically modified, about 94% genetically
modified. - So what do you get if you
have something sweetened with corn syrup? - You're going to get fat. You are going to get
lots of Firmicutes, bad bacteria in your gut,
that's going to make you extract more calories
from your food, and be addicted to super
sweetness and more and more corn. You literally start
to crave these foods. They don't allow
genetically modified foods in countries like Greece. - You just reminded
me of something. You know, Carlo, Yvonne's
dad that was with us for about 18 years. - Yes, very well. - Or excuse me, he was with
the Olympic committee for 18 years. - Yeah, sharp guy. Very good. - And I asked him about it. I said, "Man, why is it
that when I eat my food, that so much of it turns
into excess weight? He said, "You have what was
used to be called a perfect body." I said, "You got to be
kidding me." "No." He said, "To an Olympic
athlete," he said, "Your body extracts more
calories from your food to burn, but you're
not burning them." Well to an Olympic
athlete, you're burning everything you eat
and then some. - Right. - That makes a difference. But when you don't do
anything, there it goes. - That's right. - So I had to correct it
through what Yvonne has taught me. - Sure. - And he designs
every meal I eat. The calories are
what they should be. And I exercise hard. I work out more. - That's so critical that
most Christians aren't doing, we're not exercising. - And let me tell you
something else that he did. He got the salt
shaker, he said, "You're done with this." - Amen. Praise God. Why do we have so much
high blood pressure? Church, it's real simple. It's because we eat too much
food, too much belly fat, too much corn that converts
to sugar, too much wheat, wheat germ has agglutinin, it
fattens us up, too much salt. There's only four things. When I take people off four
foods, their pressure drops, salt, number one, sugar,
number two, wheat, number three,
corn, number four. When you lay these on the
alter, the pressure drops. It drops as much as two
to three medications. Now, not right away, but you
will see, and drink water, eat living food,
lots of veggies. Celery's wonderful. Salads are wonderful. Olive oil is wonderful. I put people on olive
oil, not just a little. You say just a teaspoon. No, I put them on tablespoons
of good olive oil. Now they can get
a good olive oil, Paul Newman's is a good one. You can get Walmart, $9.00. - Now a lot of people,
they're addicted to the salt through the crunch,
potato chips, corn chips. - Right. That's an addictive food. - That's an addictive
food, The corn chip. But I want you to know there
is alternatives out there that taste as good and are
just as satisfying, and it will get
you away from it. It's amazing. - Well, get on nuts. I tell people, eat nuts. Again, we have so many studies
out now that shows the power of nuts, not just
salted peanuts. Everyone's thinking,
"Oh there's my..." No, I'm saying almonds. I'm saying walnuts,
macadamia nuts, pecans. Now don't salt them. And again, when you eat those
nuts, they're satisfying. - We're out of time. (laughs) We're out of time. Where's that off switch? - You get me going
and get excited. - Yes, glory to God. Come on. Hallelujah. Come on Jeremy. Help me here son. ♪ Thank you, Papa. Whatever we do, we
