Key Discussion Points & Insights
The Measure of Thought and Study to the Word ([00:08]–[06:10])
- Spiritual Power Depends on Us:
- Pastor Nancy teaches that the degree of virtue, power, and knowledge we experience from God is determined by “the measure of thought and study you give to the truth you hear.”
- "He's not the one who measures the power and knowledge to us. We do." (Nancy Dufresne, [00:31])
- Being 'All In' is Essential:
- Casual or sporadic attention to the Word leads to weak spiritual results.
- "You just kick and you scratch and claw to stay in that flow of the Word. And I mean, you have to anchor yourself in that Word. And that Word will anchor you." (Nancy Dufresne, [01:10])
- In life-and-death situations, nothing but the Word will deliver.
- Guard Your Thought Life:
- Pastor Nancy exhorts listeners to vigilantly block out doubt, fear, and worry.
- "You have to be mean and ugly about guarding your thought life. I will not let thoughts of failure... doubt... fear... in." (Nancy Dufresne, [02:27])
Real Life Testimonies of Being "All-In" ([06:11]–[14:00])
- Healing School Testimony:
- A woman diagnosed terminally ill chose to move to attend healing school daily saying, "I refuse to die prematurely because I'm ignorant." ([03:13])
- Pastor Nancy underscores that, “The devil can't defeat you. He is a defeated foe. But ignorance will destroy you.” ([03:28])
- Personal Experience:
- Success during Pastor Nancy’s own trials didn't come from her ministerial title but from how she treated the Word.
- "I did not succeed and get on the other side based on [being] in five fold ministry...I study the Word because I've got to survive and win and be in victory just like anybody else." ([03:44])
- The Danger of Neglect:
- Neglecting the Word can lead to spiritual defeat or even physical consequences.
- Story: A staff member with a terminal diagnosis prioritized work over time in the Word. Nancy: “Dead women don't work. If you neglect the word, you're going to die.” ([04:50])
- Scriptural Foundation (Proverbs 4):
- "My son, attend to my words... put your attention on his word... It can't be health and life to the one neglecting, but it is life and health to the one attending." ([05:15])
Examples: Attending to the Word Against All Odds ([09:05]–[14:45])
- Kenneth E. Hagin (Dad Hagin):
- Despite incapacity, spent all available time reading and confessing the Word.
- Suffered physically but was all-in spiritually; family concerned he was “going too far with this Bible stuff,” to which he replied, "I don't have time [for the funny papers]." ([09:56])
- Lillian B. Yeomans:
- As a physician-turned-addict, regained supernatural healing through saturating herself in healing scriptures.
- “I sat with the Bible on my lap and all day long I read healing scriptures day after day after day... After just a few days, I realized all my symptoms were gone, and I never knew when they left. Why? When you get all in, your attention goes the right direction.” ([13:02])
Step-by-Step: Receiving Power and Knowing the Cause ([15:40]–[18:30])
- God Reveals the Remedy When You’re All In:
- "As we feed on the Word, God will show us the remedy for our situation. When we're all in and showing God we're interested in what Jesus paid for, He will show you the remedy." ([15:40])
- Not Under the Curse—But Must Close Doors:
- Christians are not under the curse, but may experience problems by giving place to the devil.
- Testimonies from Dad Hagin and Ed Dufresne illustrate the necessity of identifying and correcting areas of disobedience or negligence.
- "When you're giving an all out effort toward the word, God will show you the cause." ([17:07])
- God’s Mercy—But Don’t Presume:
- God is merciful, but ignoring what He deals with you about is risky.
