Introduction to the Power Within

Nancy Dufresne opens the episode by emphasizing the inherent power present in every individual, especially in moments of illness or hospitalization. She encourages listeners to recognize and receive this divine power actively.

“Power is present. That power is there to do a work, believe in what's present. Not trying to get something, but notice that he's already made it yours.”
— Nancy Dufresne [00:10]

Renewing the Mind: The Foundation of a Transformed Life

Central to Nancy's teaching is the concept that the way we think profoundly impacts every aspect of our lives. She stresses the necessity of aligning our thoughts with God's, referring to Romans 12:2 about transformation through the renewal of the mind.

“The way you think affects everything, every arena of your life. And so if we will make sure that we're thinking right, thinking in line with God's thoughts...”
— Nancy Dufresne [01:35]

Golden Verse: 2 Timothy 1:7 – Embracing a Sound Mind

Nancy introduces 2 Timothy 1:7 as the cornerstone of her teaching, highlighting that God has not given us a spirit of fear but one of power, love, and a sound mind. She reassures listeners that a sound mind is an integral part of their inheritance in Christ, stemming from the new birth.

“For God has not given us the spirit of fear... He's given us power, authority, love, and a sound mind.”
— Nancy Dufresne [03:45]

Nourishing the Sound Mind with God’s Word

Emphasizing the importance of God's Word in maintaining a sound mind, Nancy explains that right thinking is rooted in biblical truths. She highlights that without the Word, discerning right thoughts is impossible, and thus, feeding on scripture is essential for mental and spiritual well-being.

“The nourishment for a sound mind is God's thoughts, God's word.”
— Nancy Dufresne [04:27]

Guarding Against Negative Influences

Nancy discusses the various challenges that threaten a sound mind, such as worry, fear, and wrong thinking. She underscores the importance of taking a stand against these negative influences by anchoring oneself in the Word.

“The enemy is always trying to inject wrong thinking into our thought life... we have to stand our ground on the Word against any kind of thought that would trouble the sound mind.”
— Nancy Dufresne [07:59]

Ephesians 6:10 – Strengthening Through the Lord and His Might

Delving into Ephesians 6:10, Nancy explains that true strength comes not from within ourselves but from the Lord and the power of His might—the Holy Spirit. She clarifies that believers are called to enforce the victory Jesus has already secured, rather than striving to achieve it themselves.

“Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might... We are not fighting to get the victory. Jesus defeated Satan, principalities. He already won it.”
— Nancy Dufresne [08:38]

Colossians 3:16 – Letting the Word Dwell Richly

Shifting to Colossians 3:16, Nancy encourages listeners to let the Word of Christ dwell richly within them. She explains that this rich dwelling means the Word governs one's life and is aligned with divine wisdom, not merely a religious concept but a transforming truth.

“Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom... The Word of Christ dwell in you richly.”
— Nancy Dufresne [14:06]

The Power of Meditation and Speaking the Word

Nancy emphasizes that meditation on the Word is crucial for it to take root in the spirit. She discourages mere memorization, advocating for deep contemplation and internalization that transforms one's thought patterns and actions.

“Meditation is how you put the Word in you. But not only that, meditation is how you put you in the Word.”
— Nancy Dufresne [12:24]

Feeding on the Word: The Spiritual Pantry Analogy

Using a kitchen analogy, Nancy illustrates the necessity of being spiritually well-stocked with the Word. She likens the Holy Spirit to a divine chef who creates miracles based on the "ingredients" (the Word) available within us.

“Stock the shelves of your spirit, your life. Your mind with a rich measure of the Word... The Holy Spirit only works with the Word.”
— Nancy Dufresne [17:42]

The Holy Spirit and Daily Infillings

Nancy highlights the importance of daily infillings of the Holy Spirit to maintain a sound mind and enforce the victory won by Jesus. She references Acts 2:1-4 and Acts 4:31 to illustrate the transformative power of being filled with the Holy Spirit, which empowers believers to speak the Word with boldness and live empowered lives.

“They were all filled with the Holy Ghost and they spake the word of God with boldness.”
— Nancy Dufresne [25:31]

Conclusion: Living Full of the Word and the Spirit

In closing, Nancy reiterates that being full of the Word and the Holy Spirit provides a secure foundation against opposition and negativity. She urges listeners to prioritize spiritual nourishment through the Word and continual infilling of the Holy Spirit to experience a sound mind and victorious life.

“Your safe place is fullness. To be less than full is to be available to something other than the Word.”
— Nancy Dufresne [17:35]

Additional Resources

Nancy invites listeners to further engage with her teachings through the book "A Sound, Disciplined Mind" available at dufrainministries.org. She encourages participation in upcoming events and offers prayer support for those seeking miracles.

Transcript

[Kenneth Copeland]

Thank you to Kenneth Copeland Ministries for sowing the airtime for this broadcast.

[Nancy Dufresne]

There's enough power in every sick room and in every hospital room to raise up that sick one that may be describing you. You may be in a sick room, you may be in a hospital room. And I want to remind you, power is present. That power is there to do a work, believe in what's present. Not trying to get something, but notice that he's already made it yours. It's present right where you're at. Say, I receive that power. I receive that power. I receive it right now. I receive it right now from the top of my head. From the top of my head. The soles of my feet. The soles of my feet. We're so glad you're joining us today for Jesus the healer. I tell you what, the Word is good. And so we ask you and instruct you, release your faith with the word that you're going to hear taught today. I have some studio audience here with me. You're going to hear them right now. Yeah, there they are. I knew they'd come in on cue. And so we're glad that you're joining the studio audience and we are here to receive. I tell you what, the Word takes your life and it sets it on course. And so aren't you thrilled that your life can be more fine tuned to God's best? And so that's why we're here together today to bring that life changing, life transforming word.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

We've been taking the time in these episodes to teach a lot on the mind because I tell you what, the way you think affects everything, every arena of your life. And so if we will make sure that we're thinking right, thinking in line with God's thoughts, because that's really what right thinking is. It's the way God thinks. And Paul told us In Romans chapter 12 and verse 2, he says, don't be conformed to this world, but be ye transformed. That's what we're after, a transformed life. Right. But be ye transformed. How can we do that? By the renewing of the mind. My goodness. So people want to live a transformed life, but to do that you have to address the thought life. And the word of God is the thoughts of God. And he offers us his thoughts. Now it would behoove us to take them. I mean, it would benefit us to take them, making his thoughts our thoughts. And not just in the way we think, but also that governing the way we speak. And why? Because the way we speak governs the Way we believe. And you're always going to say what you believe, what you believe is always going to leak out the mouth. And so when we believe right, we speak right because of right thinking. But then not only that, we do right and then we also receive right. We receive the right things in our life.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

We've been taking as the golden verse for this time of teaching. We've been using second Timothy, chapter one and verse seven as our launching, our launching pad here. So you can get your Bible, get your notepad, get a pen or pencil, follow along with us. And one of the things that I want to always remind you of is that I'm expecting that God will even say to you what I don't, because he will speak specifically to what you're needing to hear. And many times, just sitting in the atmosphere, the word you'll hear from the Spirit of God. And so we're going to read together, but also make notes of what God may say to you for your life.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Second Timothy, chapter one, verse seven. And it says, for God has not given us the spirit of fear. Aren't you glad to know it?

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

But what has he given us? He's given us power or authority. He's given us love. And not just, not just natural love, his love, the God kind of love. And then look at this, he's also already given us a sound of mind. You say, well, Pastor Nancy, I don't feel like I have a sound mind. Well, you got it at the new birth. Because when you were born again, the life of God came in you. And so that is where your sound mind stems from, is from the force of that life on the inside of you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And so it's part of your inheritance in Christ. So what we have to do is what we have to know how sound minds think. We have to know what is right thinking. Because I tell you, if it weren't for the Word, we would not even know what right thoughts are. And so God gave us a sound mind. And a sound mind needs proper nourishment. Well, what is the nourishment for a sound mind? It's God's thoughts, God's word.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

So we have to feed on that word to walk in that sound mind. And of course, we've been also noting what the amplified classics about this phrase, a sound mind. It says it's a calm mind. It says it is a well balanced mind. It is a disciplined mind. It's a controlled mind, meaning that a sound mind just doesn't Go off without restraint. You pay attention. What are you thinking about? You pay attention. What are you meditating on? What are you entertaining? Because you can so easily just be turning something over in your mind for a day or even for weeks without realizing what you've been touching into. And so we need to realize that we have a part to play to protect the sound mind that is ours in Christ. And not only that, to nourish the sound thinking that's ours in Christ.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

This is the kind of mind God authored for us. He did not author a harassed mind, a depressed mind, a worried mind, a tormented mind, an unfocused mind. Mind.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Not only that, he did not author for us a mind that's diminishing to where the memory diminishes, where the clarity of that mind diminishes. No, it's a sound mind. For the rest of our life. Put a demand on that. Don't buy into. Well, you know, as you get older, you forget things. Not a sound mind. As you get older, you know, things grow foggy. Not to a sound mind.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And that's why we have to renew our minds. Because people in the world, they talk about their mind one way, but they're not talking about our mind. Our mind is a sound mind, and it stems from our inheritance in Christ.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And it's fed by the word of God. It's nourished by the Word. To enjoy a sound mind, we have to know how to take our stand against anything that would challenge the soundness of our mind. What would challenge it? Well, worry challenges it. Fear challenges it. That's one thing Paul was telling Timothy about. That that spirit of fear is come to challenge the sound mind. Don't let fear have it. Don't let fear have your sound mind. Not only that, we have to recognize opposition in the form of wrong thinking. We have to recognize opposition against that sound mind in the form of troubled thoughts, that we take our stand on the word against any kind of thought that would trouble the sound mind. Now listen. The reason the enemy is in. He's always trying to inject wrong thinking into our thought life. Why? Because he can't work through right thinking. He can only work through wrong thinking. And therefore he's constantly trying to get wrong thoughts in so he can have access.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

So we have to pay attention.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Now, I want you to turn with me today to Ephesians chapter 6 and verse 10. Ephesians 6:10. And this is the King James translation. Paul is again writing and he's telling us something that we need to know and be skillful at. Because, as I said, to enjoy a sound mind, we have to know how to stand our ground against opposition. But we also understand part of that is enforcing the victory that Jesus made ours. Not winning the victory. Enforcing the victory. Jesus already won the victory.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

We are not fighting to get the victory. Jesus defeated Satan, spoiled principalities. He already won it. But he gave us the privilege of enforcing the victory that he won for us. And so that. That for us to have a sound mind, we have to know how to enforce the victory that is ours.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

To enjoy that sound mind.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Because he made that sound mind ours. But many aren't enjoying it because they don't know how to enforce their victory. So Ephesians 6:10, the King James, Paul's writing. He said, finally, my brethren, look at this. Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Let's just stop right there. I mean, I could read further, and we will go further, possibly in this episode. But he says, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Notice he's not telling you about being strong in yourself. We did not get born again so we could rely on ourselves. That was the problem. Before we were born again, we were relying on ourselves. And it got us to the point where we needed a savior. That's where it got us. Amen. Where it took heaven to rescue us. So it's not about being strong in ourselves.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

It's not about just coping with the thoughts of our mind. It's about being strong in the Lord. How do we be strong in the Lord? Well, you have to be strong in the way he thinks.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Strong in the Word. So when it says, we're told to be strong in the Lord, not strong in ourselves, but strong in. Well, Pastor Nancy, you might say, how are you strong in the Lord? What's it mean to be strong in the Lord? Well, God and His Word are one. So to be strong in the Lord means be strong in the Word. Know what the Word says. Have that word engrafted in you. How do you get that word abiding in you? You meditate on it. You think deeply into it. You speak. Speak it to yourself. You know more than people would even recognize. They're talking to themselves. They're saying something in their own thought life to themselves. Whether it's ever heard out here or not. They're thinking something to themselves. Give yourself the habit of thinking the thoughts of the Word Amen. Meditating. That's what meditating on the Word is. You're thinking what the Lord says in His Word. You're thinking it to yourself. And you're drawing. As you meditate on a scripture, you're drawing the different views of victory that are revealed in that Scripture. You know, dad Hagin used to use this illustration with us. And he would say, when you're teaching, a minister, a preacher, a teacher can be teaching to you about a truth. And they'll go up one side of the mountain. Then you'll hear another preacher preach it, and they go up a different side. You're getting a different view of the same truth. Which view is right? All of it. It depends on which view you're taking. Meditating on the Word is you looking at the different views of truth that's held in that Scripture. It's not just thinking one way, but allowing the Spirit of God to teach you all the different views of that truth.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

To where you see it more than in one dimension.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

So God and His Word are one. So Paul says, be strong in the Lord. So to be strong in the Lord is to be strong in the Word. You can't be strong in the Word if the Word isn't strongly rooted in you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

It's not just about knowing or memorizing. Memorization deals with the mind. Meditation drives it into the Spirit, and you've got to meditate on it to get it rooted, engrafted in your spirit. And this is why some people struggle with making the Word or putting the Word first place. Because in their own thinking, the Word isn't real to them. They believe it's the Word of God. They honor it in that respect, but it doesn't seem real in their own life. You see? Well, meditation is how you put the Word in you. But not only that, meditation is how you put you in the Word. You take ownership of that Word, that you become one with that Word and the way you think.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And let me just say this. You can't spend what you don't possess. And many are trying to confess the Word before they've taken time to build that Word in them. And then they go, well, see, this confession stuff doesn't work. Yes, it does. Once it's engrafted, once it becomes alive to you. Now, see, remember In John chapter 15, Jesus was speaking, and he said, if you abide in me and my words abide, and you will abide. Is that living form? It's not a visit. Many people visit with the Word and try to spend and confess the Word based on a visit with God. But it's not just a visit. It's an abiding. An abiding place where the Word is given first place in your thought life and given first place in your actions.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Given first place in your words. Hallelujah. So to be strong in the Lord means to be strong in the Word. Now I want you to look at Colossians 3:16, because we're going to see some further instruction and clarity that will help us with this. Colossians 3:16. And this again is the King James. Paul was writing and he said this. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. Now notice this word richly. It's a measure that you can have a richer measure of the Word in you, or you can have a lesser measure of the Word that dwells in you. Now look at the Word. Let the Word of Christ dwell. Dwell means it set up residency in you. It means it's a governing force in your life. So let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom. So make sure that the way that Word is living in you, it's in line with wisdom, meaning it's not. You're not just taking in the Word based on how you think about that Word, but the wisdom of God is that you have a sober and a correct understanding of that Word.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Not just a religious view of the Word, but a wisdom that comes from God of the truth of that Word. I want you to see again, let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly. So notice, if the Word can dwell in us richly, it can also not be dwelling in us richly. Now notice this. Let it. So it's not up to God. It's up to you letting it. How do you let it? By the attention you give to it.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Feed yourself on it. Have a rich measure of the Word dwelling in you. Why? Because what is what you're full of, if it's rich measure, you'll be full of the Word. What you're full of is what's going to move you. Remember, the Word would tell us how Jesus, he would see the multitudes and they were sick. And it says he was moved with compassion on them and healed their sick. See, what he was moved on. What he was moved is what? Rather what he was filled with. He was filled with compassion. And that compassion moved him to do something. See, when you're full of the Word, the Word is what moves you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And so that's why Paul instructed Us in Colossians. Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly now. Because when you're full of the Word, the Word moves you not. Circumstances, the Word moves you not. Feelings, the Word moves you not. Emotions, the word moves you not what you see, the Word moves you not what somebody is trying to put in your ear. The Word moves you not what the enemy threatens you with. So your safe place is fullness. To be less than full is to really be available to something other than the Word. When you're full of the Word, there's not room for doubt. When you're full of the Word, there's not room for worry. When you're full of the Word, there's no room for fear.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

So it's a safety, it's a precaution to fill up on the Word. Get that word dwelling in you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

By feeding on it, speaking on it, speaking it, meditating on it, and doing it. Now, if you were to come to my home, you would realize you did not step into a home of a woman who cooks much. How would you know that? You could look in my pantry, you could look in my refrigerator. And so if a real chef were to come to my house, there's some things in there. I mean, there's some things, you know, and a really good chef can take not very much and really be quite impressive with it. You give them the basics, they can make something really impressive. You go, now, that's good right there. You did fine with that. You're a magician in the kitchen, you know, but if you. And you know, the Holy Spirit, he is such a. He's a divine teacher, he is a divine helper. You give him just a little bit of the Word to work with. I guarantee you he will give you something spectacular just with a little bit because of his excellence, because of his divine ability. And he'll be faithful with the little bit you give him, because all he can work with is what you give him in the sense of the measure of word that's in you is the measure he has to work with for your life. But if you give him a richer measure. If I stocked my pantry in the kitchen, just stocked it full, stocked my refrigerator full of everything to make fine dinners for a long time. A chef would be fully delighted. Oh, I got lots of options now, right? I can feed you like a king, baby. I can feed you like queen for a long time. Why? Based on how well my shelves are stocked. Now, this is what Paul is telling us. Stock the shelves of your spirit, your life. Your mind with a rich measure of the Word. Because then the Holy Ghost can serve up so much more in your life. That Word will bring you into a flow of wealth.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

That will not be experienced. If you just have a little bit to give God to work with. See, we think, well, why doesn't God give me everything? He can do it all. Because he works with what's in you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And what's in you determines how much he has to work with. If you give him wrong thoughts, he can't work with that. But if your mind is full of right thoughts, oh, my goodness.

[Studio Audience]

Ah.

[Nancy Dufresne]

You start breaking down boundaries and you run over obstacles and things through right thinking. Because you gave God a lot of the Word to work with.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

A lot. You gave the Holy Spirit something that he works with. Because, see, the Holy Spirit only works with the Word. You understand that? He doesn't work just with emotions and feelings. He works with the Word. That's what he's interested in.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And because he's interested in the Word, he's interested in you getting the Word in you, so that you can experience all that the Word provided for you.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

So here he said again, we read over in Ephesians chapter 6, verse 10, where Paul said, my brethren, be strong in the Lord. That's what it means. Be full of the Word.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Hallelujah. And then he says, be strong in the Lord. Look at this. And again, Ephesians 6, 10. Be strong in the Lord, but also be strong in something else.

[Studio Audience]

And.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Or be strong in also the power of his might. And you go, well, what does it mean to be strong in the power of his might? Well, the power of his might is the Holy Ghost. So to be strong in the power of his might is be full of the Holy Ghost. That's one expression. Being strong. One way to be strong in the power of his might. So what's Paul saying when he says, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might, be full of the Word and be full of the Spirit. There you go. Right there. Served it up for us.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

Why? Because if you're full of the Word and you're full of the Spirit, you'll be able to take a bold, unswayable stand against opposition, against the enemy that tries to steal or tries to affect your sound mind.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And this is where many people struggle at standing their ground is because they're trying to stand their ground on less than full, and fullness is unmovable. So your safe place Is be full of the Word, Be full of the Spirit. And you say, well, Pastor Nancy, how do I get full of the Spirit? I'm glad you asked. Here we go. Acts 2:1. Acts 2:1. You can turn with me if you would, and we'll start reading at the top of the chapter. And when the day of Pentecost was fully come. What's the day of Pentecost? See, I grew up in a denominational church that never heard these terms. And so I struggled for so many, so long. What is the day of Pentecost? That's the day that the Holy Ghost came to dwell in the earth, in the church.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they the disciples, there was 120 of them. They were all with one accord in one place. They were in that upper room. Verse 2. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing, mighty wind. And it filled all the house. Look at this word. It filled. It filled all the house where they're sitting. Listen, when the Holy Ghost shows up, things don't stay empty. Health doesn't stay empty. Finances don't stay empty.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And so it filled all the house where they were sitting. Verse 3. And there appeared unto them, they saw it, cloven tongues, like as a fire. And it sat upon each of them. Look at this, verse 4. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. Now, see, remember what Paul said. Be strong in the Lord and be strong in the power of his might, or be filled with the Holy Ghost, because that is the power, power of God's might. And so it says, they were all filled with the Holy Ghost. Well, what happened when they got filled? And because they were filled, they began to speak with other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance. So we need to be make sure that we're filled with the Holy Ghost. And the evidence that we're filled is the same evidence to them that they were filled. They began to speak in other tongues as the speaker gave him utterance. This is not different languages you've learned. This is divine language. God talk. God talk. That the Holy Spirit in them gave utterance. And they're the ones that spoke out the word, the utterances that the Spirit gave.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

And so I want you to also turn with me to Acts, chapter 4, verse 31. Verse 31. Now, these are some of the same men in Acts, chapter four that we're going to read that were there on the day of Pentecost. And it says, and when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together and they the same ones that were there on the day of Pentecost, they were all filled with the Holy Ghost and they spake the word of God with boldness. So notice this. They got filled again. What was it? Their subsequent infillings. Once you get filled with the Holy Ghost, keep being filled. Keep being filled every day.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

You can be more filled. So Paul told us. He said, brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Fill up with the Word, fill up with the Holy Ghost. How do you take time to make sure you're full of the Holy Spirit every day? It's not about maintaining yesterday's fullness. It's about a fresh infilling all the time. How do you do it? The same way they did. They spoke in other tongues. As you take time to speak in other tongues on a daily basis, what happens? You're going to live full of power, full of the Holy Ghost? Well, we're going to talk more about that. If you need more instruction about it, you want to join us next time because we're going to talk more about it. And so we're just so thrilled that these things teach us of how to stay in the flow of a sound mind because all of these help us to stand strong in the face of opposition.

[Studio Audience]

Amen.

[Nancy Dufresne]

We've been teaching out of our book A Sound, Disciplined Mind, and we want you to get your copy so that you can keep studying along with us along this line. You can go to defrainministries.org and let us know that you want it and we'll ship it out to you. But but until we see you next time, remember this that Jesus is the healer. God bless you.
