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 not. Try 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.

Top of my head. From the top of my head. The soles of my feet. The soles of my feet. Welcome. We're so glad to have you with us today for Jesus the Healer. And we're continuing along the line of the series we've been on for quite a while now. And it's called In Christ I can. And we invite you get hold of your Bible and something to take notes on because we're believing God that you're gonna have answers for your life. And we don't want you to let something slip that God authors in your heart, take a note of it. And then you can meditate on that. We also invite you go back and watch any previous episodes you may have missed. We're well over, I think we're over 120 episodes or something on this, on this series. So we have just been enjoying diving in together with. We are just so grateful that you're studying along with us and you're following along with us and we trust that you're growing. And how many of you know the Word won't leave you like it found you? Whenever we can, whenever it finds us, to be doers of the Word, we're not just hearers, but we're doers. And we say this every day. We're implementing the Word. It's not just a Sunday situation. It is to change our everyday life. And you know what then it's going to change our home. It's going to change everything about our health, our finances, our marriages, our business. And everything is touched by the Word. Whenever we put the Word in place in our lives. So we've been talking about something the last couple of episodes. We've been going a direction that as someone that's in Christ, that Jesus already won the victory for us. And because we're in Christ, we have been. We could say this, that no, no opposition should ever win us because we are in Christ. Listen. Because we're in Christ doesn't mean that opposition will leave us alone, but it means we know the outcome and we write the outcome. No matter what test the devil would launch against us, we write the outcome by using our faith in the word of God. And so we've been talking about something that in Christ we have to renew our minds to the, to the reality that, that we are not afraid of the devil and we're not afraid of the strategies that he would launch launch against us. But we're going to find out and we're going to see in the word of God that the devil is afraid of us because we are operating as one in Christ. And how many of you know the anointing of God is in you and the anointing is on you. And the devil is afraid of that which. Listen, the devil remembers when Jesus defeated him. And when we respond and live in line with who we are in Christ, the devil dreads the defeat that's handed to him when we operate as one in Christ. And how many of you know we're not fighting the devil all over again? Jesus did it. But we're enforcing his defeat and we're enforcing our victory. We are not engaging in the same fight that Jesus took on, but we are an occupying army. Jesus won the victory and then we're just there occupying our victory. And we're refusing to let the devil steal any of our victory from us. We're not being swayed off of the Word and we're finding out what the Word tells us about our victory position. We are not trying to gain victory. I'm not trying to break through something that the devil has launched against me. We're already through. Jesus won it for us. And, and we're just looking at some keynote scriptures here. And I want us to go back and let's look briefly at Ephesians 1:20. And this is the King James translation. I'm starting about halfway through the 20th verse. And it reads this, that God raised Christ from the dead and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places. Look at verse 21. That seat that Jesus was raised to. It's far above all principality, far above all power, far above all might, far above all dominion, far above every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come. And God has put all things under Jesus feet and gave Jesus to be the head over all things to the church which is his body, the fullness of him that filleth all in all. Now go down to Ephesians chapter Two, just a couple of verses down in verse four and it reads, But God, who is rich in mercy for his great love, wherewith he loved us even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together or made us alive together. Look at this. With Christ. Well, where is Christ? Christ is seated at the right hand of the Father. We have been raised and seated with Christ. It is a shared seat of authority that we are coheirs with our Father, with Jesus, that we we're joint heirs. Anything that belongs to Jesus belongs to us. And how many of you know Jesus defeated Satan? Therefore that victory seat belongs to us also that Jesus has made us master over the enemy. So when opposition shows up, we're not dealing with him from a place of combat. We're dealing with him from a place of mastery that we have been raised far above any opposition that shows up. Yes, opposition. Opposition will still come, but it will not have its intended outcome. We write the ending based on our raised position in Christ. Listen, in Christ all things are ours. Outside of Christ, we're only left to ourself to try to make things happen. So we're not going to live as one outside of Christ. We're going to think of ourselves and operate from our place of in Christ. I'm putting him to work for me. I'm taking the victory he won for me. And I'm enforcing that in my everyday life. And when symptoms show up, we're saying, you're not stealing my health. I'm not trying to get healed. When symptoms show up, I am the healed. And I'm refusing to allow symptoms to steal my health from me. I'm not trying to be prosperous at the new birth. I was born in to my place of prosperity because I was born into Christ. And in that when lack tries to show up, I'm not trying to become prosperous. I'm saying I refuse to let Lack steal my prosperity from me. So we have to know that we are already occupying the place of victory. And we're refusing to allow any test, any trial, any opposition. Rewrite our thinking on this. We renew our minds with the word of God to what God says about this. And we hold the devil in his place of utter defeat. We are not called to fight the devil. We are no match for him. It took Jesus to come and to deal with him. But because Jesus did deal with him that now Satan is the lesser one and in us is the greater one. And we are not, we are not called to fight the devil. We are called to fight the good fight Faith. Listen to that. The good fight of faith is a fight of words. It's a fight of refusing to be swayed off of the victory that Jesus won for us. And when I say it's a fight of words, when opposition shows up, we say, in the name of Jesus. No you don't. In the name of Jesus. Those symptoms have to leave. That pain has to leave. You are taking God's word and you are enforcing Satan's defeat. That's what I mean when I say that our fight of faith is a fight of words. Because the devil will threaten us with something. He will suggest something to us. You're going to lose your home, you're going to lose your business, you're going to die young. He'll threaten you with words. And you stand from your place of victory and you, you overcome him with words, with the word of God. Notice that In Luke chapter four, when Jesus was 40 days in the wilderness and it said he was tempted all the while that notice that Jesus policy of dealing with the devil was to say, it is written Jesus overcame Satan simply by quoting what God said. So the good fight of faith is simply quoting what God already said. It's not about engaging in a warfare with the devil. It is not about trying to win our victory. It is holding the devil to the place of defeat that Jesus put him in. And it's us occupying our place of victory. So Jesus has made us master over our enemy. Now it's up to us to partake of that, of that victory and hold the devil in his place of defeat. So we are authorized, if I could say this, we are authorized to even live as though we have no enemy because he is a defeated enemy. Every encounter with the devil, you are to approach that with the mindset he's already defeated. He is a defeated enemy. He is a defeated foe. I do not have to defeat him. I'm just standing in my victory, holding God's word in my mouth. Now I want us to go to first John, chapter four and verse four. And this is the Amplified Classic translation that I want to read out again. It's First John 4. 4. The Amplified classic translation reads, this way, little children, you are of God. Look at that. You are of God. And the Amplified says, you belong to Him. Now if he belongs to me and I belong to him, when the devil touches me, he just touched the one I belong to. Now, that's not going to go well for the enemy. And so I have been authorized to deal with him from my God position, my raised and seated with Christ position. So it says, you are of God. You belong to him. Now, what's that mean? Anything that the Devil tries to bring to me, against me, I say, devil, you have no business touching my life. I don't belong to you. When the Devil tries to speak something into me, I say, no, you don't, because I don't belong to you. When the Devil tries to advise me, I say, no, you don't, because I don't belong to you. And I don't listen to you. You have to remember you belong to God and God belongs to you. Look at this. And it. And you have. And have already defeated and overcome them. The agents of the Antichrist. Look at this. Have already defeated and overcome them. What's this mean? I'm not trying to win. I'm not trying to break through opposition. I have already been raised to a position of utter victory over the enemy, who has been already utterly defeated. Now you say, well, Pastor Nancy, if Satan is defeated, why am I having to deal with him? Because although he has been defeated, he has not yet been imprisoned. And so he walks about seeking whom he may devour. Because he is not yet imprisoned. Now, one day he will be. But right now, he still has a lease to be on this earth. But one day, his lease is running out. So he's not walking about because he's greater. He's walking about because he has yet to be imprisoned. So even though he's walking about, he has already been defeated. And so you need to recognize that he is the defeated one. And every time he shows up, I will remind him of his Defeat. So again, First John 4. 4, the amplified classic. Little children, you are of God. You belong to him. And have already defeated and overcome them, the agents of the Antichrist. Well, what's the word Christ mean? Anointing. Anointed one. So, anti. Anointing. So what are demons? And what is the Devil against? He's against the anointing. Why is he against the anointing? Because the anointing destroys the yoke. And so Satan tries to yoke up people. He tries to yoke up whole, whole regions with his own influence. But the anointing destroys that. That's why the Devil hates the anointing. But know this. You are a carrier of the anointing of God. The anointing of God is on the inside of you. And so the enemy is after. He's afraid of the anointing because he knows one moment of encounter with the anointing undoes his works of darkness. So it says here in First John 4:4, that we have already defeated and overcome then the agents of the Antichrist. Because he who lives in you is greater, mightier than he who is in the world. So in every encounter with the enemy, we always approach him as the lesser one, because the greater one is on the inside of us. And that anointing that's on the inside of us will destroy anything that the devil tries to yoke us up with. I want to read to you 1st John 4:4, but I'm going to read this one out of the living Bible translation. And it says this. Dear young friends, you belong to God and have already won your fight. Look at that. And have already won your fight with those who are against Christ. Because there is someone in your hearts who is stronger than any evil teacher in this wicked world. Well, what's the Devil trying to do with words? He's trying to reteach the way you think. He's trying to rewrite the thought life of people. And he will launch suggestions and thoughts at you because he wants to teach you something different than what God's already taught us. So how many of you know that we have already won the. Look at that. We have already won the fight. I am not fighting the Devil. I am renewing my mind to my victory. And I am holding to that in the face of anything the devil may launch against us. Listen to this. Anyone who is held in bondage by any addiction, any bad habit, anything that tries to hinder and hold back a believer, they are not in bondage to the devil. They are in bondage to an unrenewed mind. They do not know that they have already been made free. And this is what the devil wants them to think. The Devil will try to bring something against us, to try to make us think that we are again yoked up to something that is going to hinder and hold us back. But when our minds are renewed, and we know what God says, when it says, you have already won your fight, who? Not by us fighting it, but by Jesus fighting and overcoming the devil and then being raised to a place far above principality, power, might and dominion. We are far above all this opposition that would try to come against us. We have already won the fight through Christ. I am not trying to get on the other side of a test. Jesus already put me all the way through to victory, and I refuse to let anything hinder me in my flow of victory. Do things try to come up? Yes, but that's what our authority's for. We tell it to be removed. Remember what Jesus said in Mark 11:23, that whosoever shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed. What's a mountain? It's something that's trying to get in the way of your progress. Well, victory is ours, and it's trying. And the enemy will try to put something in our way to block us from enjoying our victory. That's simply something to be removed. And so it's with our authority we speak to that which the devil tries to put in our path, tries to put in our way of advancement. And with our words, we deal with that. We do not try to win, we just simply remove that with the words we speak. And the power of God does the work for us. So notice I want to read again the living Bible translation. First John 4. 4. Dear young friends, you belong to God and have already won your fight. Now you have to build that truth in you so that you quit trying to struggle up here in the thought life, trying to figure out a way to get past this, trying to figure out a way to. To have the victory. No, you already have the victory. You have to know it and you have to speak it. Now, the victory that is ours in Christ, as ones in Christ, all belongs to us. But we have to add our faith, because these things that belong to us in Christ do not just come automatically in play. It is faith that activates and turns us into partakers of the victory that we already possess. You say, well, Pastor Nancy, if I possess victory, why do I have what. What more do I have to do? Why doesn't it show up? Well, you can possess something you're not partaking of right now, here in this cup. I've got water in this cup. I possess it, but I'm not partaking of it. But I can partake of it anytime I want. That's Jesus. Put the victory in you. You are the possessor of all victory. But it's up to you to partake of it. How do you partake of it? By faith. You have to believe that you had the victory and you partake of it by speaking faith words. You say healing is already my victory. You say peace is already my victory. Provision is my victory. And you just partake of it by saying so. Now I receive my healing. I take. I'm a partaker of the healing that is my presence, possession. You understand that by faith we become partakers of it. Now the devil wants to reteach you and he wants you to think that because you feel pain or because you feel symptoms that you don't have Healing. He's trying to reteach you away from what God's word has already said to us. But we don't listen to him. We cast down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing into captivity, captivity to every thought, to the obedience of Christ. That's what 2 Corinthians, chapter 10, verses 5 and 6 tell us. So it's up to us to resist and not let the devil rewrite our thought lives. Amen. Since the debt. Since God is the greater one, he is the greater one. Then the devil is a lesser one. And it's up to us to remind him you're the lesser one. Therefore, I have already overcome you. I'm not trying to win. I'm not trying to break through this situation. I am on the other side, side of this opposition that you place in front. That you try to place in front of me. Why? Because you cannot keep me from the victory that's already mine. Amen. So in every encounter, talk about the devil's defeat. Before you see anything in this natural realm change, Just say those symptoms are already defeated. That pain that I can feel in my body, it's already defeated. Jesus already defeated that. And you go, I don't understand. With my mind, I don't understand how I can say that pain I feel is already defeated. Well, the heart can believe what the mind cannot completely understand. These are truths that are accepted and believed in your spirit. Because your spirit can believe what your mind has not yet been able to understand. I don't know how me saying, jesus, I receive you as my Lord and Savior. It translates me from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God's dear Son to where I will find my eternal home in heaven. How does saying those words make that happen? I don't understand the whole of it, but I just know this. I can believe I'm born again even before I see myself in heaven. Even before I have seen that location. I know I'm going there. Why? Because your heart can believe what your mind cannot fully understand. So don't let your mind talk you out of and cheat you out of the possession of victory that's already yours in Christ. By saying, I don't understand it. You don't have to understand it. Just say it and it will begin to operate. It belongs to you in Christ now. As I said, it is our responsibility every time the devil shows up to remind him you're already defeated because he wants to try to draw you into a losing fight. Now, what do I mean, by that the word tells us that we are to fight the good fight of faith. Why is it called a good fight? Because Jesus already won that fight. So we are just holding to. It's a good fight because Jesus won it for us. And we refuse to enter into a mindset or thinking that I have to hold out against the devil, I've got to win this. Nope, Jesus already won't. So when opposition shows up, you say, you've already been defeated. Jesus already defeated you. That's called the good fight. Now don't get into the wrong fight. Stay in the good fight. What's the wrong fight? A fight of fear, trying to get rid of fear. A fight of worry, trying to outthink your problem, trying to resolve it mentally. What about this? A fight of depression. I'm not in any of those fights. I'm in the good fight. I will not be drawn into the wrong fight. You get into the. You get into the wrong fight of the mental arena and that that fight will beat you up mentally. Because Satan is always trying to hold us in the mental arena. He's trying to draw us in that mental arena and hold us there because he knows in the mental arena he can out us. You go, no, I had the mind of Christ. I'm talking about. The mental arena is Satan's arena. He will launch attacks against your mind. He will suggest things to your thought life. He will suggest thoughts of fear because he wants to draw you away from your spirit. Why does he want to draw you away from your spirit? Because the faith of God's in your spirit. He wants to separate you from your faith so that you're trying to believe God with your mind. But it's impossible to believe God with your mind because there is no faith in your mind. The faith of God has been sown abroad. It's in your spirit, not in your mind. Well, what are we to do with our mind? Our heart can believe, but what happens with the mind? We renew it. We teach our mind faith, thoughts. We give our mind faith thoughts. But the seating place of our faith is in our spirit. The same seeding of faith is not in the mind. But how do you become a spiritual giant? It's someone who's their heart and their mind agree that you give yourself faith thoughts. You give yourself the thoughts of the Word. You make yourself think in line with how God thinks. If it's not authored by the Word, I'm not taking that as my thought. The good fight of faith is all you're doing is you're employing what God said in the face of opposition. It's a fight of words and it's a good fight because it's already a victorious fight. Jesus already won that fight, get out of the wrong fight. You are not called to fight the fight of worry. You're not called to fight the fight of fear because we're no match for that. That's us trying to fight what Jesus had to win for us. So the devil is always trying to draw you back to that mental arena because he wants to out thank you. He wants to trouble that soulish arena. But we are to be living and drawing on our spirits and then we make our thinking come in line with the Word of God that is in our spirit. So your spirit needs to feed on the Word and your mind needs to feed on the Word because you're the Word of God is food for your faith, but it's also food for your mind. So the devil is constantly trying to draw you into the reasoning arena, trying to figure it out, trying to calculate it, because he doesn't want you to know. It's as easy as what the word says. Again. First John 4:4 says, you belong to God and you have already won your fight. Why is that? Because you received Jesus and and therefore because you belong to Him. He came in you. And through Christ we rule and reign because greater is he that's in us than he that's in the world. Amen. Well, we're going to keep ministering along these lines because there is so much to see and it is so loaded with our inheritance of who we are in Christ and we're going to keep studying this direction. Next time and until next time, remember this Jesus is the Healer. God bless you.

This episode continues Nancy Dufresne’s in-depth teaching on the believer's identity and authority in Christ, specifically focusing on the truth that victory over the devil and all forms of opposition is already accomplished “in Christ.” Listeners are encouraged to renew their minds, stand on the Word, and actively enforce the victory Jesus has secured, rather than striving for what has already been achieved.
“Power is present. That power is there to do a work. … He’s already made it yours. It’s present right where you’re at. Say ‘I receive that power. I receive it right now.’”
—Nancy Dufresne [00:17]
“We are not engaging in the same fight that Jesus took on, but we are an occupying army. Jesus won the victory and then we’re just there occupying our victory.”
—Nancy Dufresne [04:17]
“Because we’re in Christ, doesn’t mean that opposition will leave us alone, but it means we know the outcome and we write the outcome.”
—Nancy Dufresne [02:28]
“The good fight of faith is a fight of words… When opposition shows up, we say, ‘In the name of Jesus, no you don’t.’… That pain has to leave.”
—Nancy Dufresne [13:57]
“You are authorized to even live as though you have no enemy because he is a defeated enemy.”
—Nancy Dufresne [17:10]
“Anyone who is held in bondage by any addiction… they are not in bondage to the devil. They are in bondage to an unrenewed mind.”
—Nancy Dufresne [22:14]
“That’s Jesus. Put the victory in you. You are the possessor of all victory. But it’s up to you to partake of it. How do you partake of it? By faith.”
—Nancy Dufresne [25:15]
“Say, ‘I receive that power. I receive it right now. From the top of my head to the soles of my feet.’”
—Nancy Dufresne [00:41]
“I am the healed… I refuse to let lack steal my prosperity from me.”
—Nancy Dufresne [09:33]
“In every encounter, talk about the devil’s defeat before you see anything in this natural realm change… Just say those symptoms are already defeated.”
—Nancy Dufresne [26:04]
Warm, encouraging, and direct. Nancy Dufresne speaks with pastoral authority, using both teaching and exhortation, always returning to the power of speaking and believing God's Word.
This episode is an uplifting reminder that believers are not called to struggle for victory but to stand in the authority Christ has already secured, renew their minds with the Word, and enforce Satan’s defeat through faith-filled words. The challenge is not to fight fear or problems mentally, but to abide in the spiritual reality and let the greater One inside bring victory into every area of life.
“Remember this: Jesus is the Healer.” —Nancy Dufresne [26:51]
