Key Discussion Points & Insights
1. Foundations of the Healing Anointing
- Nancy Dufresne reflects on the origins of the healing anointing in their ministry, beginning with Ed Dufresne's journey from humble service (cleaning church bathrooms) to powerful, miraculous encounters.
- The story of Ed's supernatural call, participation in the 1971 Full Gospel Businessmen's World Convention, and his first dramatic experience of the healing anointing is shared in detail.
"It's not the task, it's the honor you bring to the task. No task is beneath us when it's a flow of serving God." — Nancy Dufresne [01:37]
- Testimony: Ed receives a healing anointing after being overcome by the Holy Spirit, healing a woman of a cancerous tumor in a dramatic hotel lobby incident.
2. The Principle of Honor and Divine Connections
- Honor for spiritual pioneers and the anointing is stressed as a key to participation in spiritual inheritance.
- Nancy recounts miracles connected to the acquired home of Amy Simple McPherson, a symbol of honoring God’s pioneers.
"When you honor something, you get to participate in it. Lack of honor dismisses us from the whole thing." — Nancy Dufresne [07:42]
- David’s testimony (with input from Ms. Carolyn and Brother Copeland) describes how seemingly small meetings and friendships led to life-changing spiritual connections.
"Your life will be a series of divine connections. Protect them at all cost, because the devil will fight you hardest there."
— Patsy Camonetti (recounted by David) [12:51]
- Pastor Nancy underscores that being where God tells you to be (your church, your pastor) is vital for receiving your "prepared table."
- The danger of leaving your God-ordained place due to offense or comparison is addressed.
3. Angels and the Healing Ministry
- Nancy tells of 100 angels specifically assigned to partner with Ed in the healing ministry, ministering healing and even bringing "body parts" as needed.
- After Ed’s passing, 50 angels were assigned to Nancy; others went to ministers closely connected to Ed, showing the power of impartation via spiritual relationships.
"Because of your honor for pioneers of the past, you get to participate in it." — God’s statement to Nancy about inheriting McPherson’s home [07:55]
"If you will talk about them, you give them permission to work. The more you talk about them, the more they will work." — Jesus to Nancy, regarding the angels [25:12]
- Notable miraculous accounts:
- An angel supernaturally straightens the back of a man crippled from prison labor in Europe.
- Ed and Nancy see and feel evidence of angelic activity, like body parts being delivered or adjustments happening supernaturally.
4. How to Participate in the Healing Anointing
- The congregation is constantly reminded that everyone has a role: receiving, responding, partnering their faith and expectation.
- The ministry does not function as a "healing lottery":
- A word of knowledge or healing call is for demonstration, but God invites all present to receive by faith.
"This is not a healing lottery... God was demonstrating what's waiting for all of us." — Nancy Dufresne [73:22]
- Spirits of offense, familiarity, or passivity can disconnect a person from receiving.
- Teaching on sowing and reaping in healing:
- Praying for others’ healing is "seed" that brings harvest in your own life (James 5:16).
5. The Enemy’s Fear of the Anointing
- Nancy describes the devil as the most fearful being, afraid of the anointing, and constantly seeking to distract believers from receiving it.
- Jesus’ first sermon in every town, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me...", was strategic to foster expectation for the anointing.
- Distractions and "shiny replicas" (brass, not gold) in church life can lead away from the genuine anointing.
"One moment of contact with the anointing completely undoes the yokes... The yokes shall be destroyed because of the anointing." — Nancy Dufresne [36:26]
6. Ministry Time – Practical Demonstration and Miracles
Timestamps below indicate major shifts and testimonies:
- [42:20] – Word for those with metal implants, rods, plates, screws:
- Several people testify to chronic pain and limited mobility due to these medical implants.
- Nancy ministers healing to each, following a “word of knowledge” for this group.
- Testimonies include:
- A woman with mouth implants finds pain disappears.
- Several with rods and screws in spine, feet, and knees report reduced or no pain and increased mobility.
- A case where a metal rod in the back mysteriously receives “hinges” rather than being replaced, allowing normal movement.
"God didn't replace the rod. He made it behave like a bone. Now, that's still a miracle. So we're not going to decide how God will do it. Just know God does it." — Nancy Dufresne [45:59]
-
[59:48] – Ms. Shelley Brim takes the platform, gives a prophetic word:
- Personal healing, forgiveness, and the healing of pastor marriages is highlighted. Husbands are instructed to bless their wives.
- “Parts department” imagery is invoked (angelic delivery of needed body parts: lungs, thyroids, vocal cords).
-
[70:22] – Angelic “parts department” is emphasized through prophetic song and exhortation by Shelley Brim and Nancy, encouraging everyone to "take" by faith what they need, not to wait for a specific callout.
7. Affirmation and Corporate Praise
- The congregation is led into songs of thanksgiving, praise, and prophetic exhortation.
- Nancy gives a final strong word to ministers:
- To flow in the anointing, you must be present, “in the room” where it’s manifesting; distance or mere observation isn’t enough.
- The open invitation:
- All are encouraged to “take their healing” regardless of personal attention during the call.
