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.

Guest Speaker / Minister
Welcome. We're so glad to have you with us today for Jesus the Healer. And we are continuing in the series we've been on called In Christ I Can. And the reason we're teaching on this so much is because our identity of who we are in him is the foundation of our redemption. And when we know who we are in Christ, I want you to know, we come into the highest order of faith. And we no longer struggle to have faith when we know who he is in us, who we are in him, what he has done for us, and what he will do through us. And so we just need to keep renewing our minds in these truths, because these are the truths that really we easily live as the conqueror that he made us to be. What we have also provided for you is we have compiled three different documents that contain in Him Scriptures. And that's what we call In Him Scriptures, meaning it says in him, in whom, through him, through whom, by him. Anything that of that terminology that's going to reveal who he is in us, who we are in Him. And we have the abbreviated version, which is just a small booklet called In Him. You can get these by going to our website@jesusthehealer.org you can download them for free. And if you want, then you can print them off or just keep them on your device or then we have the complete listing here. That's the complete listing of the In Him Scriptures. And then we also recently added a third setup for you. It says in him on the front, it looks like this, it has Brother Hagin's name on it because basically his ministry compiled the In Him Scriptures. But it's not really any teaching from Brother Hagin. It's just something that they had compiled. And then another pastor in His Word went through all those In Him Scriptures that Brother Hagin's ministry compiled. And what they did is they drew on 229 different translations. Now all 229 aren't in here, but they would take the best of the of different in Him Scriptures, the best out of those 200 different 29 translations. And they compiled them and they have offered that we can offer them to you completely free. So go get hold of those, print those out, put those on your devices. And why are we asking you to do that? Because you need to find out what's yours in Christ, meditate on it, speak it, it'll bless you so much. So there's those three different documents that carry that, and we want you to get hold of those. Because when we recognize who we are in Christ, like I said, we come into a highest order of faith. One of the things that we belong, that we realize belongs to us in Christ is the love of God. I want you to know we're all familiar of course, with John 3:16 and of course John 3:16. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have life everlasting. And this verse shows us God's action toward fallen man. God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son. So notice this, that God's entire dealing with humanity is on the basis of love. God is love. And he can't deal with us apart from who he is. He will never deal with us from any other place other than love because that's. That's who he is. And it's not. Love is not just something he has. It's who he is and it's what he does. So love is the only thing that motivates God's dealings with us. Now the enemy would love to paint God in a different light, paint him in a different picture that he's an angry God. Well, he's not angry at humanity. He's angry at sin. He's angry at anything that would rob from us or steal from us. But I want you to know he. He loves mankind. But I will say this because he loves us. He will not leave us like he found us. So don't ever confuse that Love means agreement. God loves us, but that doesn't mean he will agree with every man's lifestyle or any the actions that men may take. But God because of his love, he offers us the highest flow. And can I tell you what the highest flow is? He offers us Christ that He wants every man to receive his love gift to the world, which is Jesus, because he knows if I can, if men will accept my love gift, they come into Christ. And everything that God has planned for humanity, he put in Christ. And so know this, that because he is love, nothing but love motivates his dealings with us, the devil will try to paint him as God's mad at you. God's upset with you. You know, I was watching the testimony of a woman that she was being baptized. And when they brought her to the tank, the baptismal tank, where they were going to baptize her, they brought her up in a wheelchair. I don't know the extent of her injuries or of that condition or how long she'd been that way. Maybe she told it, but I didn't see the entire clip of that. And when they baptized her and she came up out of that water, she was completely healed, completely whole. And the first thing she said, and it blessed me so much, but it also shows us the devil's strategy against humanity. The first thing she said is, God's not mad at me. That was what, no doubt the devil had used, that because she was in this physical condition, that God must be mad at her. I want you to know God is not mad at any human in the sense of punishing them through sickness and disease, because God doesn't have any sickness and disease to punish us with. Heaven has none of it. And so I so appreciate that when she testified and she gave her testimony, God is not mad at me. He loves me. That's what God's love manifested as healing. It let her know that God was advertising to her and others that saw it that he loves humanity. And I want you to know the healing power of God is nothing but a flow of the love of God. Jesus loved, loves humanity so much that he paid the price for salvation. But all that's in salvation. Listen, the word salvation doesn't just mean redeemed from spiritual death. It includes that, but also means healing and wholeness and provision. Everything that man needs is wrapped up in the word salvation. And so we need to realize that in Christ, it's not just escaping hell that belongs to us. And believe me, that's. That's something great. But I will say this. There's so much more that belongs to us in Christ. And the greatest thing that belongs to us in Christ is the love of God, that he loves us. And we can. We can return the love he has toward us. We can return our love toward him because Jesus came so that we could be restored to right fellowship with God. So God loves us and listen, he loved us while we were yet sinners. But now in Christ we can return our love toward God and to live as a love child of a love God that rules for from a love throne. I want you to know that God the ruler and God who reigns, that he does not reign with an iron, an iron rod. He, he rules and reigns from a love throne. And the Word tells us, come boldly to the throne. What is that? That's the love throne. Because when we come boldly to the throne of grace, Hebrews 4:16 tells us that come boldly to the throne of grace that you may obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need. So know this, that mercy and grace are the response and the outflow of the throne of God because He is a love being and he brings us into that love flow. Listen, a lot of people will struggle with their past because they think God is angry at them. They think God is disappointed with them. Well, I will say this. We want to please God. It matters to us that God is pleased with how we conduct our lives, how we live, how we treat others, how we're spending our lives. What's the purpose of our life, what's the motives of our life? We want that to be pleasing to God. But know this, God is not angry at people and mad at people and looking for an opportunity to to put them in a difficult place. Because God has no difficult place to put his people into. But I will say this. That's what the accuser, the brethren, oh, it's always trying to distort how we see God. And therefore if we see God wrongly, we see ourselves wrongly. We see ourselves as someone who is a disappointment to God. But that's the work of the accuser, of the brethren. I want you to know that God is not looking for a reason to, if I could say this, remove you from his best. God is always looking for a way to get us into the highest flow. We have to be careful when we read the Word that we don't read it to accuse ourselves with it. God does not send his word so that we can turn in upon ourselves and find everything wrong with ourselves based on the Word. Listen, it's a love book to his family and we need to read it with love eyes and know that God loves us and we handle his word of truth rightly. And we don't find everything in the Word to condemn ourselves with. That's how the devil, he will take and try to destroy. How you process those love words from God that You turn those against you and you find everything you're not and you find every fault and failure. The word of God is not to point to your faults and failures. It's to show you the highest flow that God offers for you to live in and to move in. I want you to look with me at John chapter 15 and verse 9. And this is the King James translation. Now think of these words Jesus was speaking and he said, as the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. So the exact same. Look at this. Jesus lived aware that his father loved him. He focused on that and he says, the exact same love that God has toward me, that's the exact same love I have toward you. So know this, you are loved by God, you are loved by heaven. And the devil is always trying to put you as defining yourself as outside that love and trying to earn it, trying to win it. But in Christ, the love of God, you are the target of his love. Know this, that God so enjoys fellowship with every single one of his children. And too many times we can have this idea, well, there's so many people in the world that God doesn't really miss if I'm not in ongoing fellowship with him. Well, you know, I have two sons, I have a daughter in law, I have three grandchildren, and not one of them can take the place of the other. Even though if one isn't there with us, I miss that they're not there with us. I don't say, oh, look at all the other people that can take their place. No, I don't. If I could say this, I don't not enjoy the ones that are there simply because someone isn't there. But I just know the ones that are there are not the replacement for the one that, that I may not be with at that time. Listen, in the family of God, he misses you. If you're not spending time with him in fellowship with him, why? Because the love he has for you and no one else can occupy that but you. And so you say, well, I haven't always done right or lived right. Listen, none of us have. That's why we all need a Savior. And the good news is we have one. But God so wants to spend himself in fellowship with you. So don't just say, well, you, you know, the pastor can know God or this family member, they have developed fellowship with God. God sent Jesus to bring you into fellowship with the Father, perfect fellowship with him. And the devil's always trying to, if I could say this, distract and pull you away from that place of Fellowship, because that's where the real satisfaction inwardly comes from, of knowing that. Father, I want us to look at Philippians chapter 3 and verse 10. Philippians chapter 3, verse 10. In the King James translation Paul is writing. And notice Paul had. He had effected ministry, a ministry full of fruit, a ministry full of miracles and healings and revelation. But notice in the midst of all the fruit that his life and ministry produced, what he said in Philippians chapter 3, verse 10. He said that I may know him and the power of his resurrection. Look at this. That I may know him. Do you know that miracles that we receive from God is no substitute for Him? Do you know that healings that we receive from God is no substitute for fellowship with God? The gifts he gives, the blessings he bestows, is no substitute for Him Himself. And in Christ, what belongs to you and the highest thing that belongs to you is the fellowship of your Father. I love something that I heard the testimony of one woman who administered that she was helping in dad Ha, dad Hagin's Healing School years ago. I don't know if that's still in place, but years ago there was a healing school in the afternoon, and that was open not just to the Bible school students that went to his Bible school, but the public could come and especially if they were in need of healing. And so brother Hagin had trained many of these students that became ministers to help in healing school. And there's this one that worked closely with dad Hagin. And a woman had come to healing school one day that was given a terminal sentence. And it looked like medically there was no help for her medically. And she was telling this minister her situation. And I so love the approach that the minister took with this woman. She said, you know, I don't know everything, but I know this, that God loves you and healing. And in that love he provided healing for every single one of his children. And she said this, she quoted to her, Hebrews chapter 4, verse 16, come boldly to the throne of grace that you may obtain mercy and find grace to help in the time of need. So how many of you know that healing is a flow of the mercy of God? That in the Gospels, many times when someone would come to Jesus and they needed healing, they would cry out, have mercy on me. So the way the mercy was demonstrated was through healing power, that there is the mercy of healing. And so this minister said to this young gal, quoting Hebrews chapter 4, verse 16, come boldly to the throne of grace that you may obtain mercy and find grace to Help in the time of need. And so this one minister said, I don't know everything about your situation, but I do know the one who does know about your situation. So she said, I so love this. She said, let I'm going to go into the presence of God and I'm going to take you with me. And she said, will you do that? Will you go with me into the presence of God? And this woman who needed healing said, well, yes, if you'll show me what to do. And she said, will you do what I do? And so this minister, just right there at the back of the room, they were sitting together talking, and she just raised her hand and she started worshiping God. How many of you know that when you worship God, worship brings the anointing of God, and it's the anointing that destroys the yoke. So this minister just started worshiping and worshiping, and this woman needed healing, just started doing what she did. So what was she doing? She was helping her to see how to enter his presence. Well, we know this, that the greater one dwells on the inside of us. But we also know this. There is an actual location where the throne sits. And the Word tells us how to approach that throne, says, enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise. Well, what's that talking about? Evidently, there's gates and there's courts around that throne of God, not to keep people out, but as a place of interest. And he tells us how to approach him appropriately. Do you know, when I was growing up with my parents, I just couldn't approach them any way I wanted. I couldn't just say any old thing I wanted and think that I was going to arrive at getting my requests met. I had to come respectfully. I had to come rightly to my parents. I couldn't come with a you owe me attitude. I didn't come with a disrespectful approach. There was a way when I needed something of my parents that I was to have a proper approach to them. Well, the word tells us what a proper approach is. Coming to his gates with thanksgiving. And notice that when we approach the gates with Thanksgiving, what happens now? Come into his courts with praise. Why? Because Thanksgiving opens the gates to the courts. And then we can keep, if I could say this, advancing in our worship of God. And it will arrive us at a place of coming boldly to the throne of grace. So anytime you need something from God, the love throne is waiting for you to come. The love Father toward his love. Children are waiting. He's waiting to minister of his love flow to us. But we have to come. He is not. He doesn't just drop things on us automatically. Why? Because his honor will. Will not let him insert Himself uninvited. He has such great honor and regard for the will of man that he will not force Himself upon any. But he tells us how to come and how to receive. Number One. Come to his gates with thanksgiving. Can I say this? Thankfulness is critical to being a partaker of what's ours in Christ. We need to be so thankful for the price that Jesus paid, but also the price the Father paid in offering His Son. That was not a light thing with Heaven. That Heaven gave its best. And Jesus was the best that heaven had. And the Father sowed His own Son. Why? So he could bring many sons to glory. That Jesus was the seed on the harvest of souls that the Father longed for. He sent Jesus so that we could all be brought into fellowship with our Father. Because our Father, he longs for fellowship with his children. But how do we approach him coming to his gates with thanksgiving? If when people say, I don't really know how to pray, just start thanking him for what you know he's done, for what you know his movement has been in your life. And you say, well, he hasn't done a lot for me. Well, if you're. If you're breathing right now, that's a good. That's a good thing to be thankful for. What about just thanking him for your very existence? I'm so grateful that I was in the mind of God. That God. That God authored a plan for my life. And you can just be thankful for those. What we've got to do is break that bad habit of complaint because there is absolutely no complaint that can live in the mouth of faith. Faith has no complaint in its mouth. Learn to rid yourself of all complaint. Well, I don't like my house. I don't like my job. I don't like my car. I don't like this. I don't like this about me. I don't like that about me. Rid yourself of all complaints. And the way to remove complaint is to replace it with Thanksgiving. Be thankful. Do you know that when I come to film some of the greatest times, I just. I remind God, I go, thank youk, that I even get to go and sit and teach the Word to the viewers that are hungry to hear the Word. It is such a joy. There's anything he allows us to do. We can be thankful over anything he's provided for us. Anything that Made life better. Any movement of good in our life is the movement of God. It was authored by God. So learn to be thankful. Why? Because it will cause you to advance in your approach to the throne of God. And the throne. Come into his gates with thanksgiving. Look at this. Into his courts with praise. I love something that that one minister stated. He said that when I pray, I go into God's presence. But when I praise, he comes into my. Into my presence. I bring him into my situation. So the Word is telling us, come into his gates with thanksgiving and into his courts with praise. Why? Because praise brings the anointing and the manifestation. The power of God will begin to flow. And what happens when the anointing comes? In the manifestation, yokes are destroyed. Many times people are trying to get rid of something. If they will just come into thanksgiving and come into praise and worship God, that the anointing will begin to flow. And the anointing will deal with opposition. The anointing will break things off. It's not about us getting rid of something. It's about us putting ourselves in a place to where the anointing begins to flow. And learn to do that at home. I remember that there have been times in the past when I would sense the enemy trying to bring a sense of oppression or a sense of attack, a sense of heaviness trying to bring pressure against my mind. When that happens, I don't try to get rid of that. You know what I do? I turn inwardly and I start worshiping God. And I start taking, tapping into the presence of God on the inside of me. Why? Because the anointing abides within me. And when I start praising God, what happens? That anointing starts moving. And that anointing is like Jesus said, that there will be in you a fountain springing up into everlasting life. What is that? The anointing of God abides in you. When you start praising, the anointing of God begins flowing. And when something tries to push on me, something tries to trouble me, I start praising. Because why? It gets the anointing flowing. And then that anointing springs up and breaks that off. And I didn't have to deal with it. The anointing did it. And that's a love flow of a love Father who has filled us with himself. And he has also filled us with that anointing that destroys the yoke. But we have to tap into it. So know this. Come boldly to the throne of grace. Come into the presence of God. And the Word tells us in Psalm chapter 9, verse 3 that says that mine enemies shall fall and perish at his presence. Notice this, when mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at Thy presence. They won't only fall, but they'll perish. What's that mean? I won't have a repeat of their opposition. That they will not only have to leave the scene, but they won't be able to return because His Presence dealt with them. The anointing of God is the presence of God. And know this, you can come boldly anytime you want and partake of his presence and that anointing that flows from his throne and it meets every single need. Amen. That's what belongs to us in Christ, his presence, the fellowship of God. And so enjoy the presence of God and take your place because you've been raised and seated with Christ and you can live your life from the place of the throne. Amen. Well, you don't want to miss next time. And until next time, remember this Jesus is the healer. God bless you.

Host: Nancy Dufresne (Dufresne Ministries)
Theme: Understanding and Living in Our Identity in Christ, with a Focus on God’s Love and the Power of Fellowship
In this continuing series “In Christ I Can,” Nancy Dufresne teaches on the foundational importance of knowing who we are in Christ. This episode emphasizes the transformative power of understanding and receiving God’s love, how that shapes our identity, and how fellowship with God is the highest privilege—and the greatest flow—available to every believer. Practical steps for moving into deeper fellowship, accessing God’s love and anointing, and overcoming the enemy’s lies about God’s attitude toward us are discussed throughout.
“There's enough power in every sick room and in every hospital room to raise up that sick one that may be describing you. … 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.” — Guest Speaker (00:10)
“I receive that power. I receive it right now.” — Nancy Dufresne & Guest Speaker (00:41–00:46)
“Our identity of who we are in him is the foundation of our redemption. And when we know who we are in Christ… we come into the highest order of faith.” — Nancy Dufresne (00:52)
“God's entire dealing with humanity is on the basis of love. God is love. … Love is not just something he has. It's who he is and it’s what he does.” — Nancy (05:39)
“God loves us, but that doesn't mean he will agree with every man's lifestyle. … He will not leave us like he found us.” — Nancy (06:42)
“The enemy would love to paint God in a different light, … that he’s an angry God. Well, he’s not angry at humanity. He’s angry at sin, … but I want you to know he loves mankind.” — Nancy (06:05)
“God’s not mad at me. … God is not mad at any human in the sense of punishing them through sickness and disease, because God doesn’t have any sickness and disease to punish us with. … The healing power of God is nothing but a flow of the love of God.” — Nancy (07:50–09:11)
“The word salvation … also means healing and wholeness and provision. Everything that man needs is wrapped up in the word salvation.” — Nancy (12:00)
“Even though … one [person] isn’t there with us, I miss that they’re not there with us. … In the family of God, he misses you if you’re not spending time with him in fellowship.” — Nancy (15:15)
“You say, well, I haven’t always done right or lived right. Listen, none of us have. That’s why we all need a Savior. And the good news is we have one. But God so wants to spend himself in fellowship with you.” — Nancy (16:04)
“In Christ, what belongs to you and the highest thing that belongs to you is the fellowship of your Father.” — Nancy (18:21)
“Come to his gates with thanksgiving. … Thanksgiving opens the gates to the courts. And then we can keep … advancing in our worship of God, and it will arrive us at a place of coming boldly to the throne of grace.” — Nancy (21:15)
“There is absolutely no complaint that can live in the mouth of faith. Faith has no complaint in its mouth. Learn to rid yourself of all complaint. … And the way to remove complaint is to replace it with Thanksgiving.” — Nancy (22:35)
“When I pray, I go into God’s presence. But when I praise, he comes into my presence. … Praise brings the anointing and the manifestation. The power of God will begin to flow. And what happens when the anointing comes? … Yokes are destroyed.” — Nancy recalling a minister’s statement (24:59)
“When that happens, I don’t try to get rid of that. You know what I do? I turn inwardly and I start worshiping God. … And when you start praising, the anointing of God begins flowing.” — Nancy (25:43)
“Mine enemies shall fall and perish at His presence. … They won't only fall, but they’ll perish. What’s that mean? I won’t have a repeat of their opposition. … The anointing of God is the presence of God.” — Nancy (26:50)
“That’s what belongs to us in Christ: his presence, the fellowship of God. … You can live your life from the place of the throne.” — Nancy (27:06)
“Love is the only thing that motivates God’s dealings with us.” — Nancy Dufresne (05:55)
“If we see God wrongly, we see ourselves wrongly. … But that’s the work of the accuser of the brethren.” — Nancy (11:20)
“Thankfulness is critical to being a partaker of what’s ours in Christ. … Faith has no complaint in its mouth. Learn to rid yourself of all complaint.” — Nancy (22:35)
“When I pray, I go into God’s presence. But when I praise, he comes into my presence.” — Recalling another minister (24:59)
“He misses you if you’re not spending time with him in fellowship with him, because the love he has for you and no one else can occupy that but you.” — Nancy (15:30)
Nancy Dufresne’s language is compassionate, faith-filled, and practical. Her teaching is warm, directive, and aimed at imparting both encouragement and hands-on ways to experience God’s love and power. Personal testimonies and practical steps are interwoven with Scripture throughout, maintaining an inviting and uplifting tone.
This episode provides a deep, encouraging guide to understanding your identity in Christ—especially as a recipient of God’s love and friendship. Nancy Dufresne clearly teaches that God’s love is the foundation for everything He does, that salvation is more than merely “not going to hell,” and that daily fellowship, thanksgiving, and worship are the keys to accessing all that God has provided in Christ. Listeners are challenged to let go of condemnation and complaint, and instead approach the “love throne” with gratitude and praise, finding freedom, healing, and the fullness of God’s anointing in their everyday walk.
