It’s Time to Pray

What do you do when life doesn’t make sense? Where do you turn when the pain is overwhelming? There is an answer to life’s hurt. Get down on your knees and pray to God. There is strength in prayer during turmoil.

God’s instructions are found in 2 Chronicles 7:14, If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.Let’s examine this verse for further insight.

  1. Are you called by God’s name? God loves all people, but that doesn’t automatically make us a member of His family.  Jesus speaks plainly in  John 3:3 when He says, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God How do we become born-again, or members of His family? Romans 10:9-10 tells us how, “If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation.If you are not yet a member of God’s family then it is time to confess with your mouth that you believe in your heart that Jesus is risen from the dead.
  2. Let’s talk about humbling ourselves. Proverbs 22:4 tells us, “Humility is the fear of the Lord;
    its wages are riches and honor and life.” In order to be humble we must first recognize who He is, and His ultimate supremacy over all. We must willingly take on this attitude from John 3:30, “He must become greater; I must become less.”
  3. God’s people are to pray. In fact, we are to pray without ceasing, (1 Thessalonians 5:17). And we are to be Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.”
  4. We are to seek His face. We are to do as the Scriptures says, “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near. And as Hebrews 12:2 says,looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
  5. Turn from our wickedness. 2 Corinthians 13:5 tells us, “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you–unless, of course, you fail the test?” After we examine ourselves then we are given these words to live by, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9). And there are promises of spiritual benefits that come from repentance. It says in Acts 3:19, Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.”

And if we will do these things His promise to us is that He will hear our prayer, forgive our sin, and heal our land.  Come on people of God, it’s time to pray.

Find His Peace

Jesus’ words are clear, These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” See John 16:33. He speaks this way so that we can prepare for difficult times that will come to all of us.

Now, let’s be clear on one thing, God isn’t the author of difficult times, but because we live in a fallen world He gives us spiritual advice on how to overcome when we pass through these challenges.

First of all, He says, “In Me you may have peace.” And again in John 14:27 He reassures us with these words, “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.Jesus offers us peace that is not of this world, in fact it is found outside of this world. It is found within the bounds of an intimate relationship with Him.

How can you enter into this peace with Him?

  1. The first step to having this peace is to be Born-Again. He says to Nicodemus in John 3:3, “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.This man was a ruler of the Jews, a man of the Pharisees. he was a highly respected individual in his community, yet something was missing in his life. A relationship with religion cannot bring true joy or peace, this can only come from intimate fellowship with Jesus Christ. Without being born-again you cannot find God, you cannot enter into His ways either. His way is peace. And you can’t find His way through the world.
  2. Be baptized with the Holy Spirit, pray in tongues so that we can edify, build up our spiritual being. See 1 Corinthians 14:4.
  3. You can exchange your negative thoughts for His positive ones when you renew your mind with the Word of God. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. See Romans 12:2.
  4. Let’s take this a step further, He tells us to be of good cheer and not to let our heart be troubled or full of fear. How can we accomplish this? The main way is to choose what we think about. He says in Philippians 4:8, Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things.

When we honestly make an effort to do these things, He promises us in Philippians 4:9, The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.

Disobedience and Sin Prevent Healing

But it shall come to pass, if you do not obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all of His commandments and His statures which I command you today, that ll these curses will come upon you and overtake you (Deuteronomy 28:15).

Disobedience and sin are one and the same; they open the doors of our lives to their consequences–sickness, disease, and every other form of the curse.

Once we were out ministering in a Masai village, when a Christian woman came running over to ask us to come quickly to minister healing to her daughter who was dying from an asthma attack. When we arrived, we found her lying on the ground, gasping for breath. I rebuked a spirit of death and the asthma and released the Spirit of Life to flow through her. I wasn’t seeing the quickly results that were needed. Then I found a religious trinket in her hand and took it away from her; the attack stopped immediately and she began to breath normally again. With the help of an interpreter, I witnessed to her about Jesus Christ, but she refused to receive Him as Lord and Savior. Instead she picked up the trinket again, and the asthma attack immediately started up again in full force, just like when we first found her. She refused Jesus Christ and clung to a human-made religious image that could not hear or help her. She disobeyed the first commandment that says, “You shall have no other gods before Me” (Exod. 20:3).

Another time, David and I were ministering in a different village when we came across a little boy who could not walk. But once the trinkets from the witch doctor were removed, he was set free and could instantly walk.

The occult world in all forms is rebellion toward God, and we cannot mingle in witchcraft or satanic practices in any shape or form and believe for a miracle from God. It does not work. It matters not what culture we are from, we need to rid ourselves and our homes of all satanic and New Age books, movies, games jewelry, trinkets, statures, pictures, and / or similar items. Both black and white magic are of the same spirit–of satan–and they need to be renounced and removed immediately in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord.

Learn to Speak Words that Heal

I have been teaching you the importance of your words, and in fact I have been giving instruction on how to activate the power of the spoken word in your life. The Bible teaches us in Proverbs 18:21,Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.

I am going to give you a challenge today, actually a faith assignment. The purpose for this assignment is to build up or to strengthen your faith in God and His Word concerning healing –that God is willing and able to heal and to deliver all who come to Him and that He wants to use you for His kingdom purposes.

 

  1. Pray the following prayer:

Dear Holy Spirit,

I ask You for Your help in changing the way in which I speak. Help me to hear every negative and faithless word that comes out of my mouth, and teach me a new way to speak that would bring You glory and honor and cause Your power to be released over my life, I surrender my tongue to You this day.

In Jesus’ name I pray, amen.

2. Listen to the words that you speak.

3. Today, with the help of the Holy Spirit, start to change your negative, faithless words to words of faith and power in Jesus Christ.

 

This sounds like a simple challenge, trust me when I tell you it is not easy, but it will change your life.

Watch this healing video and learn how to use the power of your words to recreate body parts.

Create an Atmosphere of Faith for Healing

In a village called Sonjo in Tanzania, where we held a healing conference, there was a teenage girl who had been deaf since birth. As I laid hands on her for healing, everyone gathered around, including the girl’s mother. This girl held her head down in shame and was uncooperative. I could literally sense unbelief around me. I ministered over her, but nothing happened, and I knew that it was the unbelief that surrounded her. I spoke with her mother and asked her to come to the meeting the next day. She agreed to come.

When it came time to lay hands on the sick, I came to this teenage girl again. I looked at my friends who were standing next to me, and told the one to keep the mother busy. I took the girl around the corner where no one was watching her. I quickly stuck my fingers in her ears and rebuked the deaf spirit to come out of her in Jesus’ name. Immediately, for the first time in her life, this young girl who was full of shame, could hear! Her smile said it all.

When the mother came around the corner, I presented her daughter to her. The mother stood there in complete amazement at what the Lord had done for her daughter. He not only delivered her from a spirit of deafness, but opened up her ears, and took away her shame.

This experience taught me that there are times when we need to minister to the person in private, without onlookers. We need to create an atmosphere that is full of faith for the person receiving the healing touch. Faith is very powerful, and so is doubt. Faith releases Healing, whereas doubt steals it. Even Jesus kicked out the gawkers, the unbelievers when He raised Jairus’ daughter from the dead, and so do we. See Luke 8: 40-56.

Be Fully Persuaded About Your Healing

In today’s faithless society you need to work through the doubt and unbelief that people try to force upon you. Like Abraham, you need to be fully persuaded about your healing, and you can be.

First of all, you need to cleanse yourself of all doubt and unbelief regarding whether or not it’s God’s will to heal you. And you can start to do this by renewing your mind with the Word of God about healing. Romans 12:2 says, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

When you read and study God’s promises for healing on a consistent basis it will transform doubt and unbelief to trust and belief in God’s Word. Some people will transform quicker than others, but if you will keep at it, and not give up satan’s negative thoughts will lose their control over your mind, and God’s promises will take over.

Secondly, you need to choose what you think about. Look what Philippians 4:8 has to say about this, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.” You can choose to dwell on the world’s negative report, or you can choose to meditate upon the goodness of your Lord. Success or failure depends upon the choices you decide to make.

The third point to consider is this, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he”. See Proverbs 23:7. What we think about will eventually make its way into our spiritual hearts or spirits. If you think of yourself as being healed, dwell upon the healing promises as belonging to you, sooner or later you will be healed.

And this is a major key to being fully persuaded about your healing.

Seek and Find Your Healing

In Luke 5: 12-13, we read about a man who was not sure about healing. But he did something that many are not willing to do, he sought out the Healer.

It says, “And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on his face and implored Him, saying, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”  Then He put out His hand and touched him, saying, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.”

This man had a very contagious disease called, “Leprosy”. Even his identity was wrapped around it, he was known by the others as a leper. Think about this, his name is not recorded in this story for us to remember him by, only the hopeless label, “Leper”. And the public associated him with the characteristics of this dreadful disease. When they saw the leper, negative adjectives passed through their minds concerning him, such as, unclean, contagious, cursed, and deadly to be near.

Even the leper, himself, identifies with these painful labels. Back in these days, whenever someone would pass by, he had to pick up a rock and throw it at the person passing by and call out to the others about himself, “Unclean!” Imagine how hopeless he felt. The Bible clearly teaches us that, “For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he.” See Proverbs 23:7. It also tells us in Luke 6:45, For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks.

This man could see his body being eaten away from leprosy, and he could smell the rotting of the flesh as well. He could feel the utter pain and sting constantly.

I also believe he heard amazing testimonies about people who were being healed by a healer named, “Jesus”. But as long as he received his identity from the fearful reactions of others as they saw him, or from his 5 senses or human reasoning, he would forever remain a leper on this earth. Something radical would have to change for this man to be healed.

He obviously did not know how Jesus felt about all of this. But he did hear of these amazing miracles that were taking place, so when Jesus passed by he called out to Him, “Lord.” To acknowledge Jesus as Lord shows that this man was humble and respectful towards Jesus. Then he asks Him what he has been wanting an answer for, “Lord, if You are willing, You can make me clean.”

He hears enough about Jesus that He knows that He is able to heal him, but when it comes to His willingness he was unsure. But he does the right thing and seeks out the Healer, and asks Him His will to heal. And because he seeks, he finds the answer, “I am willing; be cleansed.” Immediately the leprosy left him.”

What are you waiting for? If you are unsure about healing, ask Him to reveal Himself as your healer. If you will do this, you will find Him and your healing. Jeremiah 29:13 says,You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” And when you seek the Healer, you find your healing too.

Spiritual Insight to Healing

As a healing evangelist, I receive many interesting emails from people who have questions about healing for themselves, or for those around them. So, I would like to give you a list of spiritual insight that I have acquired over the years. I believe this will help you heal personally, or release His healing power to others.

  1. Faith for healing operates by love, and love alone. Galatians 5:6 tells us that, For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything, but faith working through love. Love is the fuel for faith, without it you have nothing, and can’t do anything for His glory, such as healing the sick.
  2. Faith for healing demands action. James 2: 14-17 explains it like this, What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?  If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. In other words, if you believe you will activate your faith by your actions.
  3. God commands all believers in Him in the Great Commission, And these signs will follow those who believe: In My name they will cast out demons; they will speak with new tongues; they will take up serpents; and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them; they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” (Mark 16:17-18). Note, this is not just for healing evangelists, but a commandment for all believers in Jesus Christ.
  4. We are not waiting upon God to release His healing power, this healing power has already been given to us. Isaiah 53:4-5, Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed. God did His part, now the responsibility to heal and be healed is in our hands.
  5. Faith for healing comes by hearing the Word of God concerning healing. Romans 10:17 says, So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. We need to feed our spiritual beings with God’s healing promises.
  6. No matter the sickness or disease, God has given His children authority over it and the source of it. Luke 10:19 assures us with these words, “Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.”

Vulnerable Prey for satan to Attack

“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeing whom he may devour” (1 pet. 5:8).

A lion in the wild will hunt, attack, and devour a vulnerable prey first. It will go after a young, weak, or injured animal or one that has strayed away from the safety of the herd rather than take on a strong, healthy animal.

People Who Are Vulnerable Prey for Satan:

  1. Have walked away from God and His Word.
  2. Lack personal relationship, fellowship with the Lord.
  3. Do not take the time to study God’s Word on a consistent basis.
  4. Carelessly stray away from the body of Christ.
  5. Dabble in the things of this world.
  6. No longer live the Word.

These people have become weak in the faith and are vulnerable to attack. Because such people are vulnerable, they easily lose their healing to satan’s attack. They readily believe his lies that they have not been healed, and as a result, accept the disease back into their bodies.

So, we need to be sober and vigilant and be on the lookout for weaknesses in our spiritual walk that can cause us to become easy prey for our enemy to steal, kill, and destroy us. Be sober and vigilant!

God’s Recreative Power to Heal

I’ve been relaxing at the beach with my family in Guatemala this past week, and enjoying God’s creation of the ocean, the wind and the waves, the sunrise and the sunset. But you know what else gives me joy? God’s power to recreate the human body.

I stand in awe every time I witness the blind see their first sight, the deaf hear their first sound, the mute speak their first word, a paralytic take their first step. It is an awesome sight to behold.

I remember years ago there was conflict within a denominational Church that did not believe in God’s supernatural healing power, but as the ladies discussed the issue amongst themselves about the healing message I was sharing they came to the conclusion that if God can create the human body, then He certainly can recreate it as well.

Another denominational Church was having the same struggle and did not believe God’s healing power was for today, until something happened to one of their congregants.

This young man had been in a car accident and destroyed his knee. He already had thousands and thousands of dollars in reconstructive surgery, but even with years of surgical repair work he still could not stand without his knee giving out on him.

He was scheduled to receive 2 more years of reconstructive surgery with no guarantee of success. But then something wonderful happened to this young man.

He heard the word of the Lord concerning divine healing, he believed stood up in front of the group and requested to have his knee ministered to. I placed my hand upon his knee and released the recreative power of the Holy Spirit to flow into his knee. I looked at the young man and told him to put his faith into action.

He agreed and jumped into the air and landed firmly on the ground. He rejoiced, because for the first time in years his knee did not give in and cause him to fall. He was healed. He then took off running down our long dirt road with no issues.

When he returned to the States he and the others testified to their pastor about this healing and others. The pastor was amazed. And called the other pastors in the same denomination together in his area and shared this amazing testimony of this young man and decided that they had better reexamine what the Bible has to say about healing and miracles.

And when he went to visit his doctor and the surgeon they were just as amazed and said to this young man, “You can call it a miracle if you want, all we know is that you do not need surgery anymore.”

The God, Elohim who had created his knee to begin with is just as capable and willing to heal or recreate his knee as well.

Don’t ever underestimate His recreative power to heal our bodies as well.
