  • Taught back then that god doesn't heal today. that he
  • 00:05:17.740 --> 00:05:19.675
  • Doesn't heal today. that he uses sickness to teach a
  • 00:05:19.742 --> 00:05:21.611
  • Uses sickness to teach a lesson and you just have to
  • 00:05:21.677 --> 00:05:23.246
  • Lesson and you just have to suffer through it. but when

  • Told how he took off his denomination glasses and he
  • 00:05:36.793 --> 00:05:39.429
  • Denomination glasses and he read the scripture like he
  • 00:05:39.495 --> 00:05:41.097
  • Read the scripture like he was reading it for the first
  • 00:05:41.164 --> 00:05:42.398
  • Was reading it for the first time. he saw how jesus went
  • 00:05:42.465 --> 00:05:45.034
  • Time. he saw how jesus went around healing sick people,
  • 00:05:45.101 --> 00:05:47.570
  • Around healing sick people, curing the lepers, causing
  • 00:05:47.637 --> 00:05:49.405
  • Curing the lepers, causing the lame to walk, freeing
  • 00:05:49.472 --> 00:05:51.374
  • The lame to walk, freeing them from infirmities. he
  • 00:05:51.441 --> 00:05:53.409
  • Them from infirmities. he read in hebrews 13, “jesus
  • 00:05:53.476 --> 00:05:55.812
  • Read in hebrews 13, “jesus christ is the same yesterday,
  • 00:05:55.878 --> 00:05:58.014
  • Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever.” what he
  • 00:05:58.080 --> 00:06:00.550
  • Today and forever.” what he did in the bible days, he'll
  • 00:06:00.616 --> 00:06:02.351
  • Did in the bible days, he'll do today. there never was a
  • 00:06:02.418 --> 00:06:04.520
  • Do today. there never was a day of miracles, there's a

  • There areas in your health that you've accepted, you're
  • 00:07:37.513 --> 00:07:39.549

  • Is to be healthy and whole. now you need to pray the
  • 00:07:51.494 --> 00:07:52.562
  • Now you need to pray the prayer of faith, not the
  • 00:07:52.628 --> 00:07:54.564
  • Prayer of faith, not the prayer of doubt. “i don't see
  • 00:07:54.630 --> 00:07:56.566
  • Prayer of doubt. “i don't see how i can get well joel. have
  • 00:07:56.632 --> 00:07:58.401
  • How i can get well joel. have you seen the medical report.”
  • 00:07:58.467 --> 00:08:00.469
  • You seen the medical report.” not the prayer of
  • 00:08:00.536 --> 00:08:01.237
  • Not the prayer of discouragement, “i've had
  • 00:08:01.304 --> 00:08:03.205

  • Sickness.” no pray like you know healing belongs to you.
  • 00:08:08.511 --> 00:08:10.446
  • Know healing belongs to you. pray like you know god has

  • God is a good father and it's his good pleasure to give you
  • 00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:19.956
  • His good pleasure to give you the kingdom. you don't have
  • 00:08:20.022 --> 00:08:21.924
  • The kingdom. you don't have to beg, “god please heal me.”
  • 00:08:21.991 --> 00:08:24.427
  • To beg, “god please heal me.” no the prayer of faith is,
  • 00:08:24.493 --> 00:08:26.429
  • No the prayer of faith is, “lord i receive my healing. i
  • 00:08:26.495 --> 00:08:28.931
  • “lord i receive my healing. i know you're jehovah rapha.
  • 00:08:28.998 --> 00:08:30.933
  • Know you're jehovah rapha. you're bigger than this
  • 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:31.934

  • Now.” then all through the day, you may not feel any
  • 00:08:39.542 --> 00:08:40.977
  • Day, you may not feel any different. you don't see any
  • 00:08:41.043 --> 00:08:42.478
  • Different. you don't see any sign of it. this is what

  • Sign of it. this is what faith is all about. “lord

  • Thank you that i'm getting better and better.” you don't
  • 00:08:48.884 --> 00:08:51.187
  • Better and better.” you don't have to keep asking god to
  • 00:08:51.253 --> 00:08:52.722
  • Have to keep asking god to heal you over and over.
  • 00:08:52.788 --> 00:08:55.124
  • Heal you over and over. in luke 13, jesus saw a woman
  • 00:08:55.191 --> 00:08:58.160
  • In luke 13, jesus saw a woman that had been sick for
  • 00:08:58.227 --> 00:08:59.095
  • That had been sick for eighteen years. she was bent
  • 00:08:59.161 --> 00:09:01.197
  • Eighteen years. she was bent over and not able to stand
  • 00:09:01.263 --> 00:09:02.732
  • Over and not able to stand up. he said in verse 16,
  • 00:09:02.798 --> 00:09:05.234
  • Up. he said in verse 16, “should not this woman, being
  • 00:09:05.301 --> 00:09:07.403
  • “should not this woman, being a daughter of abraham, whom
  • 00:09:07.470 --> 00:09:09.605
  • A daughter of abraham, whom satan has bound, be loosed
  • 00:09:09.672 --> 00:09:12.208
  • Satan has bound, be loosed from this sickness.” notice
  • 00:09:12.274 --> 00:09:14.443
  • From this sickness.” notice where the sickness came from.
  • 00:09:14.510 --> 00:09:16.278
  • Where the sickness came from. whom the enemy has bound. you
  • 00:09:16.345 --> 00:09:18.714
  • Whom the enemy has bound. you have to be very clear that
  • 00:09:18.781 --> 00:09:20.549
  • Have to be very clear that the sickness is not from god.
  • 00:09:20.616 --> 00:09:22.618
  • The sickness is not from god. it's the work of the enemy.
  • 00:09:22.685 --> 00:09:24.520
  • It's the work of the enemy. the good news is god came to
  • 00:09:24.587 --> 00:09:26.656
  • The good news is god came to take off of you what the
  • 00:09:26.722 --> 00:09:28.324
  • Take off of you what the enemy put on you. he came to
  • 00:09:28.391 --> 00:09:30.292
  • Enemy put on you. he came to free you from what's bound
  • 00:09:30.359 --> 00:09:32.161
  • Free you from what's bound you. the scripture says
  • 00:09:32.228 --> 00:09:34.130
  • You. the scripture says nothing can snatch you out of
  • 00:09:34.196 --> 00:09:35.798
  • Nothing can snatch you out of god's hands. no sickness, no
  • 00:09:35.865 --> 00:09:38.234
  • God's hands. no sickness, no addiction, no depression. the
  • 00:09:38.300 --> 00:09:40.403
  • Addiction, no depression. the forces that are for you are
  • 00:09:40.469 --> 00:09:42.672
  • Forces that are for you are greater than any force that's
  • 00:09:42.738 --> 00:09:44.440
  • Greater than any force that's against you. but you can't
  • 00:09:44.507 --> 00:09:47.043
  • Against you. but you can't believe like my father was
  • 00:09:47.109 --> 00:09:48.644
  • Believe like my father was taught, that god's putting
  • 00:09:48.711 --> 00:09:50.279
  • Taught, that god's putting this sickness on you to teach
  • 00:09:50.346 --> 00:09:51.681
  • This sickness on you to teach you something. you just need
  • 00:09:51.747 --> 00:09:53.282
  • You something. you just need to suffer through it.
  • 00:09:53.349 --> 00:09:55.117
  • To suffer through it. a lady told me that she was
  • 00:09:55.184 --> 00:09:56.919
  • A lady told me that she was glad god gave her cancer so
  • 00:09:56.986 --> 00:09:59.588
  • Glad god gave her cancer so her daughter wouldn't have to
  • 00:09:59.655 --> 00:10:00.723
  • Her daughter wouldn't have to have it. i understand what
  • 00:10:00.790 --> 00:10:02.591
  • Have it. i understand what she meant. we'd take anything
  • 00:10:02.658 --> 00:10:04.727
  • She meant. we'd take anything to not have our children deal
  • 00:10:04.794 --> 00:10:06.362
  • To not have our children deal with it. but her premise was
  • 00:10:06.429 --> 00:10:08.197
  • With it. but her premise was wrong. god wasn't the one
  • 00:10:08.264 --> 00:10:10.566
  • Wrong. god wasn't the one giving her the cancer. the
  • 00:10:10.633 --> 00:10:12.401
  • Giving her the cancer. the truth is god doesn't have any
  • 00:10:12.468 --> 00:10:14.570
  • Truth is god doesn't have any cancer to give. there's no
  • 00:10:14.637 --> 00:10:16.539
  • Cancer to give. there's no cancer in heaven. he's not on
  • 00:10:16.605 --> 00:10:19.608
  • Cancer in heaven. he's not on the throne saying, “let me
  • 00:10:19.675 --> 00:10:21.811
  • The throne saying, “let me zap this one with cancer, zap
  • 00:10:21.877 --> 00:10:24.346
  • Zap this one with cancer, zap her with migraines, and zap
  • 00:10:24.413 --> 00:10:26.348
  • Her with migraines, and zap him with kidney disease.”
  • 00:10:26.415 --> 00:10:28.317
  • Him with kidney disease.” that's the wrong concept of
  • 00:10:28.384 --> 00:10:29.752
  • That's the wrong concept of god. he's the lord your
  • 00:10:29.819 --> 00:10:31.320
  • God. he's the lord your healer. not the lord who
  • 00:10:31.387 --> 00:10:33.122
  • Healer. not the lord who makes you sick. he came to
  • 00:10:33.189 --> 00:10:35.091
  • Makes you sick. he came to destroy the works of the
  • 00:10:35.157 --> 00:10:36.892
  • Destroy the works of the enemy.
  • 00:10:36.959 --> 00:10:38.294
  • Enemy. this woman had been sick for
  • 00:10:38.360 --> 00:10:39.762
  • This woman had been sick for eighteen years. you can
  • 00:10:39.829 --> 00:10:41.764
  • Eighteen years. you can imagine how she'd tried
  • 00:10:41.831 --> 00:10:43.532
  • Imagine how she'd tried different doctors,
  • 00:10:43.599 --> 00:10:44.200
  • Different doctors, treatments, medicines, but
  • 00:10:44.266 --> 00:10:46.335
  • Treatments, medicines, but nothing worked. now she had
  • 00:10:46.402 --> 00:10:49.271
  • Nothing worked. now she had accepted that she'd always be
  • 00:10:49.338 --> 00:10:51.373
  • Accepted that she'd always be bent over. jesus showed up
  • 00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:53.843
  • Bent over. jesus showed up and said, “woman, you are
  • 00:10:53.909 --> 00:10:55.111
  • And said, “woman, you are healed from your sickness.”

  • More than we read about. i believe one reason this

  • I believe one reason this one was chosen was because
  • 00:11:09.592 --> 00:11:12.094
  • One was chosen was because the lady had been sick for
  • 00:11:12.161 --> 00:11:13.763
  • The lady had been sick for eighteen years. god
  • 00:11:13.829 --> 00:11:15.798

  • Of options. they've come to the end of their ability, but
