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. 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. Welcome. We're so glad you're joining us today for Jesus the Healer. Thank you for taking the time to be with us. And we invite you to get your Bible and get something to take notes on, because the Word of God is our answer book. And we want to record the answers that God makes revelation to us. And how many of you know that revelation is so important? Because when revelation of the Word comes, needs are met. And too many times people think, well, I just need to pray more. Well, prayer is to be valued, and there is certainly a place for prayer. But can I tell you this? When we have revelation, we can just act on what the Word says, and we can receive needs met by revelation that comes. And so thank God for that. And if I would say this prayer puts us in a place of hearing revelations, things that God would enlighten us. And as we feed on the Word and as we pray, revelation comes. And so we're believing that with these episodes, revelation is coming to us, because then it makes our prayer life more effective, it makes our faith life more effective. It makes our love walk more effective. And we are in the midst of a series teaching on who we are in Christ and who Christ is in us. And my goodness that gives us the absolute best life. That when we find out who we are in Christ, the struggle is over. Because every single need that we will ever encounter in this life is fully met in Christ. Everything God planned for your life, he put in Christ. Every need that your life would call for to have it met, the supply of it is put in Christ. And now all we have to do is receive of who he is in us and allow him to flow through us and manifest through us. Remember this. Jesus said, my Father in me, he does the works. So Jesus would confess, my Father is in me. He's working through me. Doesn't that tell us that we need to say, Christ is in me? The greater One is in me. The Holy Ghost is in me. I'm in Christ Jesus. He's in me and he's working through me. I'm drawing on Him, I'm yielding to Him, I'm obeying Him and I'm responding to Him. As Jesus stated it, we need to state it. Not only was Jesus helping us to know how he was moving and having the effectiveness of ministry by saying, my Father in me, he does the works. But no doubt he was confessing in the face of opposition, in the face of needs. My Father in me, he does the works. So when you get up in the morning, you're authorized to say, today, my Father in me, he does the works. He is moving and manifesting through me and I acknowledge Him. Why? Because God will not move and manifest uninvited in our life. We must acknowledge Him. And I will say this, the more we acknowledge of him, the more he is welcome and invited to flow in our life. If we acknowledge him very little, then we're not giving him a wide open door to flow and move in our life. So the measure we acknowledge him is the measure he will manifest. You know, back in the early 1980s, my husband, he had received, there was a healing anointing on his life. And in 1971, there was a healing anointing that came into his hand. He was at a meeting, and Jesus came into the meeting where he was at and placed a healing anointing in his hand. And he ministered, laying hands with that special healing endowment, laying hands on thousands and thousands of people through his many years of ministry. But in the early 1980s, it was right before I met and married him. He was, he was coming off of a commercial flight one day and he was exiting off the jetway. And while he was exiting, the Spirit of God spoke and said, turn around. And when he turned around, he saw 100 angels walking behind him. You say, well, how did he know that there were a hundred angels? When you're in the Spirit, there's a knowing of everything you see in the Spirit. It's not that he counted them. He knew by the Spirit how many there were. And he said to God, he said, God, what are those angels dispatched for? And God said, I have dispatched them to work with you in the healing ministry. Are angels healers? No, Jesus is the healer, but they cooperate with the healer. They cooperate with healing power. You'll remember at the pool of Bethesda that an angel would come down and stir the water at a certain season. It was not a. It was not a scheduled time. It was an unscheduled time. No one knew when that was going to happen. But the Bible says he stirred the waters. What was he doing? He was depositing a measure of healing power into the water. And it was always enough for one, regardless of the condition, regardless of how advanced the condition, regardless of whether they were a Jew or not a Jew, regardless of whether they had a covenant with God or not. The first one in. And I want you to know that if you look at the. The four Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and the Book of Acts, you find out that many of those that were ministered to and received healing, they were not even Jews. They were not men that were born again. They were not people who were created in Christ Jesus. That had not happened yet. That was just. Healing is God's advertisement to the world that he loves them. Healing is God's advertisement that he is moving and blessing in the world of men. And so God does not put all these stipulations around healing and say, well, it's only for a select few if you meet the requirements. Now, don't misunderstand me. We're to obey the Word. We're to obey the guidelines in the doing of the Word. But know this, that God does not put. He does not command obedience of us to keep something from us, but so that we'll enjoy more of what he's provided for us. So know this. He sent that angel down and. And that angel would deposit a measure of healing power in the water that day. And when he would deposit that the first one in got healed, regardless of whether they're a Jew, regardless of whether they had a covenant, regardless of whether they even recognized that it was an angel, regardless, they could be in their final moments of life, it didn't matter how advanced the disease, it always worked. So know this, God, God's love is so great that healing is his advertisement of his love for mankind. It's what one of the things that will draw people to Him. But this angel. I'm just giving you that passage to help you to see that angels played a role with working with healing power. As I said, Jesus is the healer, but these angels are ministering spirits. Now, In Hebrews chapter one, in verse 14, it says, Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who shall be heirs of salvation? So notice this. They're ministering spirits. Well, what does that mean? They're going to minister something good to us, they'll never minister something bad. But Satan has angels, but they're angels of darkness, and they minister something bad. But God has his own hosts of angels, and there's more with us than there is with the devil. So we have more ministering to us than there are trying to minister against us. So we don't receive those. The flow of those who try to minister against us, but we only receive of that which God sends to minister for us. And so these angels are, If I could say this, they're part of the equipment and the resources of heaven to bless humanity. No, we don't worship angels. We don't pray to angels. We don't seek to see angels. But we know that they're just part of our inheritance, that they. They are sent to minister for us who are heirs of salvation. And they will always minister something good. And so from that time on, when my husband had that vision, he saw that 100 angels were dispatched to work with him in the healing ministry. There were remarkable things that happened. There were people that we would see that their spines were crooked with scoliosis. And right before our eyes, we would see that straighten out. Why? Because an angel would just take that spine and just bring that correction through God's healing power. Then others would testify, I feel something being moved around in my chest. Maybe they had a heart condition or something in, in the, you know, with internal organs. And they would testify, I felt like somebody moving something around. Well, listen, God created us. God formed us, and he knows how to bring spare parts. He knows how to fix what isn't working right in our bodies. And so these are ministering spirits sent forth to minister for us who are heirs of salvation. And it's not to be an oddity to us that heaven is involved in this way, but I wanted to tell you that, to say. To tell you, to explain a previous statement that I made. When my husband went home to be with the Lord in 2013, I had forgotten about those angels that worked with him in the healing ministry. But about four months later, I was conducting a service, and I had just finished ministering to the sick in a healing line. And right before I closed the service, the word of the Lord came to me. And God said, when your husband came back to heaven, he said, those angels that worked with him in the healing ministry did not come back with him because their ministry is in the earth. And he said, 50 of those angels remained with you and they work with you in the healing ministry. He said the other 50 were dispatched to work with Other ministers that were closely associated with your husband, who they themselves operate under a healing anointing in their ministry. And then he said this to me. He said, if you'll be faithful with the 50 that work with you, then more will come. Now, when you're in the spirit, in the spirit realm, things work at thought. You know, people who have had the experience of going to heaven, they would say, I would just sink something in heaven and it would happen. I would just think of going to a place and I would be there. And so in this experience, when God was talking to me about these angels that were dispatched now to work with me in the healing ministry, he said, if you'll be faithful with those 50, then more will come. And I thought to myself, how am I? How are you faithful with these ministering spirits? And the moment I thought it, then he answered it. He said, that is talk about them. He said, because when you talk about him, you're giving them permission to work. Why is it. Now, this is what I wanted to show you. What you acknowledge works for you. What you fail to acknowledge won't work for you. So even in this realm, with these ministering spirits, that if we'll acknowledge that you have. Now listen, you have an angel that was dispatched to work with you your entire life when you were born into this earth. Remember what Jesus said? He said, talking about the children, he said that the children's angel is always before my Father's face. And Jesus said to dad Hagin on one occasion, he said, just because you grow up, you don't lose your angel. So you have an angel that will protect, that will move with you. And if I could say this, the more we acknowledge them, not pray to them, not seek to see them, but acknowledge that they are ministering spirits sent forth to minister for us who are heirs of salvation, the more they're acknowledged, the more opening we're giving them to operate and move in our life. And you say, well, angels don't obey me. They obey the word of God. They did obey the word of God by coming and being dispatched to you so that you could give them faith commands. And then they would in response to your faith. They're working with the word of God. They don't just work because we say something. They work when we say the word of God. And so this is what I wanted you to see, that the spirit of God said to me, if you will talk more about those angels that work with you in the healing ministry, he said, then you're giving them more. You're Giving them permission to to work more with you. And so it's the same thing with the spirit of God. It's the same thing with the presence of God. The more we acknowledge the flows of heaven, the more we become partakers of the flow of heaven. It's not enough to say, well, I believe healing belongs to me. We have to acknowledge it. We have to say healing power is working in me now. We have to say resurrection power is working in me now. We have to say that divine provision is flowing for me now. We have to say peace is flowing in me now. Joy has been made mine. The more we acknowledge something, the greater it will flow. Now I will say this to you, that we can work that in the negative direction. You know, in a home and in a marriage, sometimes people become offended with one another in the home or in their marriage and they'll acknowledge that offense. How do they acknowledge it? They hold to it, they think about it, they repeat it, they tell others what somebody did to them or against them. And the more they acknowledge it, the greater that offense grows. Well, that's something working against them in the negative direction. But how about we acknowledge what we want in our life and not what's going to trouble our life? That if we'll acknowledge God loves me, will acknowledge the healers in me, will acknowledge that I have divine assistance, that an angel is working and helping protect my life and helping to bring to pass the plan of God. If we'll acknowledge the Holy Ghost is in me. He, he knows the mind of God and he imparts the wisdom of God to me. The part of the Word that we acknowledge is the part of the Word we're partaking of. Now listen. All the Word and all of our inheritance in Christ, it's our present possession. It belongs to us, but we're only partaking of it when we acknowledge it. I'm going to ask them to put on the screen Philemon. And there's only one chapter in Philemon and we're going to look at verse six, because this is telling us how to enjoy what belongs to us in Christ. Because it's not enough to possess it. Because people will say, well, if healing belongs to me in Christ, why doesn't it just show up? Or provision belongs to me in Christ, why doesn't it just show up? Or if the plan of God this is held in the plan of God, why doesn't it just show up? Well, Philemon, chapter 1, verse 6 says that the communication of thy faith may become effectual by. Look at this by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you, in Christ Jesus. Look at this. We're acknowledging and we are to acknowledge what's in Christ Jesus. And we say, I acknowledge that this supply, this help, this answer, this power is in Christ Jesus. And I acknowledge that it's for my life. So I partake of it. I take it into my life. And know this, the more you acknowledge it, the greater of what's in Christ Jesus will flow in your life. You become a greater partaker. Not just a possessor, but a partaker of what yours in Christ. So what is the job of faith we are to acknowledge? Now I want you to see that verse again. And it says this, that the communication of thy faith, your faith has to be communicated. Your faith has to be heard. There is faith in spirit. But until you speak, the faith that's in your spirit can't be heard. How? What are we to speak? We're to acknowledge what is ours in Christ Jesus. Don't acknowledge the past. Don't acknowledge the faults, the failures, the weaknesses. Don't acknowledge where you missed it. Don't acknowledge where you did it wrong by rehearsing it and telling it over and over and over. You know, if your home hit a difficult spot or your marriage hit a difficult spot in the past, don't keep bringing that up. Don't keep acknowledging it. Because anything you acknowledge is going to come into movement. You're going to give it movement in your life. Now remember what Jesus said in Mark 11:23, the very last phrase in Mark 11:24. Also what it tells us, he shall have whatsoever he saith. What is saying is acknowledging. It's so important that we acknowledge the presence of God. Through what we say, we acknowledge healing power. Through what we say, we acknowledge, I'm in Christ today. We acknowledge the greater one in me. He's in me doing a work. We acknowledge it's my Father in me who does the works. The whatever we acknowledge is all that we're giving permission to to flow in our life. The more we acknowledge it, the more it will flow. The less we acknowledge it, the less it will flow. Because Jesus said he shall have whatsoever he saith. So he's telling us, say it. If you need something to flow, say what you need to flow. Don't say the problem, don't say the circumstance, don't say the opposition. Say what you need to flow. Because what you acknowledge is what is going to begin to manifest. And if you. If you're at a place of great emergency in your life, you need some. You need some answers. And miracles immediately increase your saying, increase your acknowledging. Because just as God said to me about those angels, he said, if you'll be faithful with those 50, more will come. That is, talk about them. Because when you talk about them, you give them permission to work well, even so, talk about healing power. Because when you talk about it, you give it permission to flow. Talk about that. God's your provider, because then you give provision the permission to flow. And why do we have to talk about it? Because God will not flow, force anything upon us. He is a perfect gentleman, and the greatness of his honor will not allow him to violate your will. As we acknowledge it, we're opening the door to it. Too many times we have to change what we've been acknowledging. How many times people have a relationship where there was offense that happened between two people, and every time they rehearse that, every time they repeat it and mull over it in their thought life, they're acknowledging it. And if I could say this, sometimes as people who have been taught the laws of faith, we've been taught how important our words are. Sometimes Christians have learned not to say something out loud, but they're still acknowledging it to themselves. They're still acknowledging it quietly. They're acknowledging it by thinking about it. What you're thinking about is what you're acknowledging. You know, Joshua 1:8 is such an important verse for us. It says, this book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall look at this, meditate in it. Look how often, day and night. And people will say, well, you can't just meditate in the word day and night. When it talks about day and night, it's talking about a lifestyle. It's not talking about periodically, once a week, you acknowledge the Word or you meditate on the Word. It's a lifestyle. Kids, can I tell you something? You're meditating on something every day, all day long. You might not recognize it, but that's meditation. Because you can meditate on what fear suggested. You can meditate on what lack is trying to do in your life. You can meditate on what your body is feeling. Whatever you're thinking about is what you're acknowledging. And God is just telling us this. He said, just turn your acknowledgement toward my Word. Acknowledge my Word. Because when you acknowledge the Word, that's what will flow. So this book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate therein day and night. I remember on one particular occasion, I was There was a lot of responsibilities. I was facing a lot of decisions in front of me, a lot of projects on my plate. And there was somebody who threw another project on my plate unnecessarily. And I remember thinking, I wish they hadn't have done that. It was not necessary. And all it did was add to what I was having to already deal with. And I was just disappointed that that had happened. And I remember thinking about it one day, I mean, I was putting on my makeup, getting dressed, and you know, ladies, when we put on our makeup, we got time, we're taking time. And I was taking that time and I was just thinking, wow, I wish they hadn't have done that. Yeah, I wasn't offended, I wasn't hurt. I was just disappointed because it was unnecessary. And at the end of about 30 minutes, God said to me, you can think about that if you want to. But he said, to think about that you have to give up fellowship with me. Meaning this. He was saying, you could have been fellowshipping with me during that time, but you chose to acknowledge something different. You know, you can fellowship with healing and not fellowship with pain. You can fellowship with provision, not fellowship with lack. You can fellowship with love and not fellowship with offense. You can fellowship with faith and not fellowship with fear. So what you're acknowledging, that's what you're fellowshipping with. So Philemon, chapter one and verse six is telling us how to be skillful with becoming a partaker. That the communication of our faith, that it becomes effectual by the acknowledging. Look at this. Of every good thing which is in Christ Jesus. Acknowledging every good thing. What's that mean? We're going to have to know something. We have to know what is every good thing, because if we don't know it, we can't acknowledge it. And if we don't acknowledge it, then we're not giving it permission to flow. So what's that mean? Let's not be general with what we acknowledge. If you need healing in a certain part of your body, don't just say, father, I thank you that I'm healed. Hey, those are good words. It's fine to start with a general statement, but let those general statements grow specific. Father, I thank you that your healing power is working in my heart right now. Your healing power is working in those arteries, or your healing power is working in my joints right now. You don't have to have a medical report, so to speak. You don't have to have the doctor's terminology, but be specific. Where do you want the power of God to land. You know, we have an aircraft now, and when we land that aircraft, we can't just land anywhere. We are landing at a very specific location. We don't. I've never gotten on the air, on the airplane and say, fly me. Just fly me over somewhere. Well, where are we going? No, you have to be specific if you're going to arrive. And you can't just say, well, just land me, you know, in Fort Worth, Texas. Well, no, what airport? There's multiple airports. Well, my goodness, there's, there's lots of roads. Just land on a road. No, you can't just land anywhere. And I want you to know God's healing power can't just land anywhere. Anywhere. We need to be specific. Faith needs to be specific. We're acknowledging, I believe I receive healing power in my joints. I believe I receive healing power in my back. Like I said, we don't have to know medical terminology. And for goodness sake, don't go on the Internet and try to become a doctor researching all that stuff. All that stuff will damage your faith. All that stuff will rob you of faith. All you have to do is say, father, I thank you that every need is fully supplied. And you be specific about what that power is working in you. I'm just trying to say this is that when we know who we are in Christ, we become more specific with our faith and we begin to acknowledge specifically what he's done for us, who he is in us, and what he's working through us. Amen. Listen, we are loaded with the treasure box of heaven. When we have Christ in us, let's not live with any need unmet. Let's live as rich as we are. Because I want you to know your wealth is in him and he supplies every single need of your life spiritually, mentally, physically, materially. Well, we're going to keep going this direction. Next time and until next time, remember this. Jesus is the healer. God bless you.
