Hello, hello you guys, and welcome back to Saved. Not soft. What's going on, you guys? It's so amazing to see all of your guys's lovely faces again. Can I just say that God is so good? Can I just say that he's so good, so loving, so kind, so compassionate? Yes. Before I started to press record, I just got in a posture of worship and I felt this. I felt the spirit of peace and serenity flood upon me. And I really do believe that when it comes to this episode, there's going to be a lot of peace that is released. And I am beyond excited for what God's children is going to receive today because even I got blessed learning about this and meditating on this in my secret space. Because there's just so much to know about the way that God moves his nature, not just his name, but the way that he moves his characteristics, who he is, not just the name Jesus Christ, but what does he do, who is he and how does he love me? Who does he call me to be? How great is he? And just meditating on the spirit of the Lord has been bringing me so much serenity as of recently and due to this topic specifically, I really do believe that peace is going to be found today. For those who have been stuck in a waiting season. We starting off strong, y'all. I believe in so much faith that those who feel like they have been stuck in the same place over and over and over again and they're crying out to God and they're asking God, why haven't you done it yet? God is going to give you peace in your heart today. And when I tell you that this blessed me more than one could ever know, it gave me such a different perspective of how Jesus walks and how Jesus touches. And today we're going to talk about healing, whether if it's emotional, circumstantial, physical, spiritual, relational, whatever it may be, if you're someone who needs healing in your life and you've been asking God to heal a certain situation that you've been encountering and you're like, God, why isn't it happening? I'm asking and nothing's happening. I'm praying, I'm staying faithful, I'm doing all the things that you're telling me to do, but yet it seems like I'm hitting a wall each and every single time. The Lord wants to bring peace to to your guys hearts today. And I'm really excited to share this message because I shared a little bit of this on my Tik tok A few weeks ago. And I couldn't help but but recognize that the Lord wanted me to share this and for it to hit the ear gates of those who are starting not to believe anymore that they're called to be healed. But you are. And I hope today really encourages your faith. So. So let's pray. We already know how it goes. We're going to sit, we're going to pray, we're going to invite Father Abba Adonai El Shaddai Rapha, the almighty God, the most magic majestic. There we go. Not most, he is a majesty, but most majestic. We're going to invite him into our space. Can we do that today? Can we invite him? Because none of this is possible without him. Let's just close our eyes. Thank you, Jesus. Dear Heavenly Father, I just thank you, I thank you in advance for the peace that you're about to release upon our hearts. Father, I thank you, Jesus, that your love comes into our hearts like a. Like a flood. Father, flood our hearts with your love and with your compassion. God, I thank you for the air that you've blessed us with with inside of our lungs. God, we are not taking for granted that people did not wake up this morning. God, I thank you that because we woke up this morning and there is still breath in our lungs, it means that you're not done with us yet. I thank you, Father, that there is still an assignment, that you still call us to be healed, that you still call us to forgive and to be reconciled and to become more holy. Father, I thank you that each breath is an opportunity to go, to grow closer to you, to become more intimate with you. Father, I thank you, Father, that you are rich in mercy, just like Ephesians 2 says. And because of that, you make us a alive in Christ. I thank you, Jesus, that because of your blood I am made alive. So, Father God, I decree and declare here today that those who are dead in the spirit, that you wake them up with your resurrection power. Father, I decree and declare that on this very day for all of heaven and earth to hear that as your word is proclaims out of my mouth and those who hear the sound of my voice, that there is a releasing of peace, of healing power, whether if it's physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, relational, financial, whatever wounds your sons and daughters are dealing with. Father God, we come to your feet today knowing that something is going to be done. That God, at the beginning of this video, or the beginning of this podcast, or the beginning of this word, we're not going to leave this the same, Father. I have faith in that, Father, that we will not hear these words and take them in vain. Father. We invite you in our space, Jesus. I ask you to convict our hearts, to open our minds, to have our hands ready to receive. And most importantly, Father, that you remove every distraction within the mind. God, I cast down every vain imagination, pretension, argument, any, anything outside of the knowledge of Christ. I cast it down to the pits of hell and I send it to the abyss where it belongs. Father, I cast down every distraction. And I know that the weapons that you have given us are not carnal, but they are mighty through the spirit of the Lord. I thank you, Jesus, that you have given us all authority and all dominion and all power and that the tongue does does declare death. Today we declare life. I thank you, Father, that you give us the opportunity and that you give us tongues to declare life over ourselves, Father. So God, make us alive today at Onai, Father, make us alive in your spirit. We accept the blood of Jesus. Wash us from the top of our head to the soles of our feet. We're coming with all of our baggage today. We're sharing with you the whole truth. We come with repentive hearts and more importantly, an attitude that's wanting to change. Thank you, Jesus. A spirit that's wanting to elevate, increase our spirit, man. Father God, I ask that our spirits just grow closer to you, especially with this word that you're giving us here today on this very day, Father, that it's not going to go in vain, but rather it's the thing that people really need to hear. So I cast down every vain imagination I rebuke every distraction, every attack of the enemy that those ears who are meant to hear, that they will hear this message and that it will seep down to the soul, to the bottom of their soul and spirit. F I thank you Jesus, for your resurrection power and that your blood speaks a better word according to Hebrews. I thank you Jesus, that you are the resurrector, that you are a savior, that you are our provider. Oh, that you are the King of kings, Lord of Lords, that you are my walking miracle. You are my bestest friend. Convict our hearts. Today we invite you into this room and we ask you to move. In Jesus name I seal this prayer. Amen. I feel the spirit of the Lord. I feel the spirit of Lord. No, because if you kind of see me just like do do, do, do, it's because I really believe. This isn't even just I feel it. This is. I know it Something is going to be released into the atmosphere right now because that, let me say this healing is going to happen within the mind today because the atmosphere has been set. Do you understand? The atmosphere has been set. Healing is going to take place if you touch and agree with what the Lord is wanting you to encounter today. So my encouragement is stay close to what God is wanting to say today because it hasn't even happened in the natural yet. But I'm already picking up in the Spirit that this is going to be something that's going to break chains. Can. Can we be, can we listen today? Can we not be distracted? I feel like there's some people who may listen to these episodes and they're doing multiple things at once. Like maybe this is the one that you need to take notes on and meditate on. Just, just a recommendation. Because I really do feel even if it's just one person, that this is going to save somebody's life. And I know that's insane, but that's just why I'm picking up in the spirit. Let's talk. Yeah, let's talk. What are we going to talk about today? I kind of said a little bit about it and it's about those who are in the waiting season. And I titled this episode When God Hasn't Done It Yet. And that's a hard position to be in, is to cry out to God time after time after time. I think sometimes it's really discouraging to go to church services or to conferences and people are like, if you want healing from God, ask now and he'll heal you instantly. Right now. Have that faith, you can do it and God will heal you right now. And you're crying out to God, you're on your knees and you're asking God to deliver you from the thing that you're dealing with. But yet you walk out of church exactly the same. Why is that? And I think sometimes we don't understand that God sometimes does allow the struggle in the wilderness in those seasons just a little bit because he's about to reveal his eternal glory. And this doesn't make God a bad God, it just makes God an on time God. And I'm not going to sit here and give a message today cuz it's easy to preach, really feel good sermons. I'm not going to sit here and preach that that something that isn't going to happen is going to happen today. Whatever the Lord's will is, that's what's going to happen today. Those who need need to receive healing Today, they will receive it. And I think the atmosphere has to be set correctly. And two, we have to know the nature of God. And I think a lot of the times when we're. When we talk about healing, we're like, it's instant. It can happen right now. But what if it doesn't? Because there's been plenty of times where I've been at the altar and I've cried for healing and I've cried for peace in mind, and yet I feel like I'm throwing in these chains over and over and over again. And it's not because God isn't good. It's because I have to recognize the person who keeps throwing me in bondage, and it's usually myself. So there's different aspects to healing. There's different aspects as to the way of the Lord moves, whether if it's a mental illness or a spiritual sickness or a physical sickness. What does it look like for God to heal? And why is it not always instant? Because it's not always instant. God doesn't always heal instantly, but God is a God who heals. And that's what we're going to talk about today. We're going to talk about his timing. We're going to talk about the way that he moves. Because just because God hasn't done it yet, it doesn't mean that he's not going to do it. It just means that he hasn't done it yet. Do we understand? So I want to talk about God healing instantly and God healing through a process. And I think a lot of people hate the processing stuff. I've talked about multiple times on this podcast that I've received healing instantly. And one of those things that I've received healing on instantly was smoking. That was one thing. That was delivered one and done. That was it. It was just one encounter, one rebuke. And girl, I was good. Hold on now my computer turning off. Hello. This is so inconvenient. I rebuke every, every adversary right now. In the mighty name of Jesus. Why are you trying to interrupt my podcast? I rebuke you in Jesus name. But I was healed instantly from smoking. I rebuked it, I sent it to the pits of hell. I fell on the floor, I shook, and I never dealt with a withdrawal ever again. I've touched the instantaneous healing of God. I know that God could heal you in a second. But you want to know some things that I've cried at the altar for? And God didn't take it away in an instant. My anxiety, my Anxiety. I've witnessed God take away my addiction of smoking like that in a day, overnight. But when it came to anxiety and not having peace within the mind and not encountering serenity, it was like I was going to these church services over and over again at the altar. My face is on the floor. I'm like, God, you're a healer. And I know that you could heal right now, because people on stage are telling me that you're a healer who can heal right now. But yet I'm leaving service exactly the same. And it's because I'm trying. It's almost like I'm wanting an experience rather than a revelation. And slowly but surely I noticed that God doesn't just heal instantaneous, he also heals through a process. And the Bible supports this all day. If you ever hear the story about the bleeding woman who was bleeding for 12 years, and Jairus's daughter, there's two very specific things that happen within this story that gives you a full picture of how Jesus heals. Because here's the thing. Jesus heals, but it's not always the way that you think it is. I've tasted and seen God's instantaneous healing, but I've also experienced what it's like to come week after week and God healing tiny bits of my heart day after day after day. There's a difference between God healing through a process and in an instant. And it's hard to navigate. But just know that the thing that God's doing is not being done in vain. It's being done to build your character, to develop your spirit, and to make you stronger. And it's kind of a tough pill to swallow when you're like, dang, I'm dealing with all of this. I'm losing hope, I'm losing faith. I don't know what's going on with me. And it's quite discouraging. But when the strength of the Lord comes into play, we know this because it's biblical. For when I am weak, you are strong. God, you get to be possible. When it looks impossible. For me, that's when God gets to be strong. So how could God be strong if we're never weak? Do you understand? So boast in your weakness, because God is making all impossible things possible. And we're going to talk about that today. So we're going to be reading Mark, chapter five. I'm starting in verse 21. And this is the. This is Jesus raising a dead girl and him healing a sick woman. Two daughters, both receiving healing. Okay, let's read. When Jesus had again crossed over by boat to the other side of the lake, a large crowd gathered around him while he was by the lake. Then one of the synagogue leaders named Jairus came, and he saw Jesus. He fell at his feet. He pleaded earnestly with him, my little daughter is dying. Please come and put your hands on her so that she will be healed and live. So Jesus went with him. A large crowd followed and pressed around him. And a young woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for 12 years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors who had spent all she had. Yet she kept on getting. Instead of getting better, she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, if she had just touched his clothes, I would be healed. Immediately her bleeding stopped, and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering. At once, Jesus realized that the power had gone out of him. He turned around in the crowd and asked, who touched my clothes? You see the people crowding against you. His disciples answered, and yet you ask, who touched me? But Jesus kept looking around to see who had done it. Then the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell at his feet and trembling with fear, told him the whole truth. He said to her, daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering. We're going to take a pause right there. Then we're going to read the rest of the scripture. So let's set the scene real quick. Jesus is about on his way, and a synagogue leader named Jairus comes up to Jesus and he says, jesus, Jesus. My daughter, she's dying. And I believe, God, that if you just touch her that she will be healed. So Jesus goes, okay, bet, let's go. So he's walking with Jairus. Keep in mind, walk. He's not running, he's not jogging. He's not speed walking. He's walking with Jairus to his home to heal Jairus daughter. And this is when Jesus's name is kind of popping. So he starts getting surrounded by a crowd, and there's so many people surrounding him to where it's even slowing down his walk even more. And people are touching him. People are grabbing him. They're going, jesus, Jesus, Jesus. And there's this woman who heard about the name of Jesus, and she's been bleeding for 12 years with a sickness that she's gone to many doctors, and she's been trying to be prescribed medicine and all these things. And instead of Becoming better, she became worse. But when she heard the name of Jesus, there was a spark of faith that was within sight of her spirit. So she thought in her mind, I must even just touch him. If I just touch his clothes, then I will be healed. She knew the goodness of God would do anything to get in his presence. So this is the moment that we see right here, is that Jesus is on his way to heal one daughter, but yet another. Another daughter comes to fall at his feet. Why is this super important? A multitude of things is happening simultaneously. We'll get to Jairus later. But with this woman, it wasn't just like she was right there next to Jesus the whole time. She saw him from afar. You know how many people there probably were and what a journey it was to probably touch his cloak. She had to act faith. Not only, oh, my goodness, God, if I just touch your cloak, that God, you would free me from your resurrection power. Like, she's not. She's thinking in her head that if I just touch him, then I will be freed. And there's all these people. This is a woman who's been bleeding and sick for 12 years, and she saw him from a distance, and she wasn't even seeing God the whole way, but yet she was peeking through the people and making her way through the crowds. And yet it was still a journey. But she touched him and she got there. She may have lost sight of him a few times, but she kept pressing forward, forward to touch his cloak. Do you have enough faith to touch his garment whether if you see him or not? Because I bet this woman was trying to get to Jesus and there was people clouding her vision. Are you going to allow your blurry vision get out of the way of the cloak you are supposed to touch? That's it. That's it. It's a journey. It's a journey. But as soon as that woman touched his garment, she was healed instantly. But notice, y'all, she was dealing with this baggage for 12 years. She was suffering for 12 years. And I love the part of scripture where it says that she. She's gone to mult. Excuse me. I love the part of scripture when it says that she's gone to plenty of doctors and she spent all of her money on doctors, and instead of growing better, she became worse. How many of you guys keep going to the doctor thinking that you're dying, but it's actually just an unresolved issue in your spirit? Jesus, some of you guys are going to the doctor swearing up and down that you have a Tumor, that you have cancer, that something's wrong with your heart. But it's not a physical sickness, it's a spiritual one. And you're spending all these money on doctors that will never heal you. I'm going to tell you who the real doctor is. Today. It's Jesus. And by one touch, I promise you, you don't need to go to a doctor ever again, because we have the best physician. That is my God, Rapha, Adonai, Jehovah, Jireh. He is the one who heals. He is the God who heals. He is rich in mercy. He makes us alive. He was dead once. He's living dry bones come to life. That is the ministry of Jesus. If you want to know the ministry of Jesus, he trafficked in healing and in deliverance. That's all he did. He healed and he delivered people. Every time you encountered Jesus, you did not leave the same. If you received the word of God, if you heard the word of God, there was no way that you were able to leave the same. This woman just heard about Jesus, and look how she starts to pursue him. She said, if I just touch his garment, if I just touch his cloak, then I will be healed. God, I ask today, Father, that you give us faith like that woman, Father, that you give us faith, Father, that your word just. Just enlights our spirits. It ignites this faith that no matter what our vision looks like, no matter what the sickness is, that we will make our way through the crowds, Father, and we will touch your garment in hope, knowing that you are a God who heals the best physician. She didn't need to go to all those doctors. She needed to go to one. She needed to go to one. And maybe all those medicines aren't working because God's got a bigger medicine. It's his heart. And here's the thing. I want to tell you what I'm not saying. I'm not knocking medicine. If you have a migraine and you prayed your life away and you still got a migraine, take the medicine, okay? That's not what I'm saying. Saying that people can sometimes idolize the healing of man rather than the healing of God. And the majority of the times, the physical sicknesses that we're dealing with is actually a perverted heart posture that we have. There's something not right in our spirit, and it's expressing itself in a physical manner. She fell to her feet. She confessed the whole truth to Jesus. And he said, daughter, because of your sins, you have been forgiven and you can walk freely. You are freed from your suffering. Go in peace. And this is the only time in the Bible that Jesus refers to anyone as daughter. And I think it's so funny because we see two daughters in this. Jairus goes up to Jesus and he says, jesus, my daughter. And it's so funny because as. As Jesus and Jairus are on his way to go see, or on their way to go see Jairus's daughter, Jesus is almost kind of like, hold on, hold on. But my daughter. Hear me. Hear me. My daughter. My daughter. My daughter. I feel a really heavy weight right now of God wanting to heal hearts of those specifically who are listening to this who don't have a father figure for some reason. And he wants to tell you today, my daughter. Yeah, that's good, Jesus. Oh, I feel it. Yeah. He's saying, my daughter, you were never meant to bleed forever. You were never meant to bleed forever. This woman was never meant to bleed forever. And to those who hear my voice right now, can I reassure you that you are never meant to bleed for the rest of your life? That there is a healer, there is a touch, and this is the way that God just healed instantly. The moment that she touched him, she was healed. But you got to understand, she was carrying this for a long time, and she was going to other people for help, and she just grew worse and worse and worse. But when she found the actual physician, the thing that she needed for her spirit, she was freed, received, peace. Thank you, Jesus. That was amazing. I totally went off of my notes. I don't even know what I wrote in my notes. Yeah, I covered everything. I didn't even have to look at it. That's crazy. Immediately, her bleeding stopped. Everyone was touching him, but he felt his daughter. Jesus. What? Everyone was touching him, but he felt his daughter. Done. Thank you, Jesus. Thank you, Jesus. Man, I could only imagine Jairus. I bet Jairus was standing right there like, bruh, we got stuff to do. Like, keep it pushing. I bet Jairus was actually really discouraged by looking at what Jesus did for the woman who was bleeding for 12 years and was thinking, jesus, we're literally on our way to heal my daughter. Here's the thing. I think sometimes we look at other people get healed, and our spirits get. Oh, I keep stuttering. I rebuke the spirit of stuttering in the mighty name of Jesus. Because, no, what I'm about to say is really important. So, Father God, I ask that you give. Sorry. I just need humility. I need the Holy Spirit to help me. Holy Spirit, I ask that you help me with my speech. You give me the confidence to speak, that you sharpen my tongue and that I don't do this in my own strength. Father, this is your platform. This is all yours. God, I surrender to you. Let your will be done. Say what you need to say. Father, help me with my speech. I need your help right now. Jesus name. Sorry, I had to pray over myself real quick. I need God to help me with this. I can't do this on my own. But this is the thing about Jairus. I bet Jairus was sitting right there and was like, jesus, what are you doing? We're on our way to my daughter. That you need to heal, that you agree to, but yet you're being stopped by a woman that we don't even know. You know, you're wasting a lot of time, God, we got to keep going. And I think it's so funny because I bet Jairus was sitting there so mad that Jesus healed this woman that he wasn't able to have his faith enlightened by what just happened. Sometimes we get discouraged when other people are healed before us. Sometimes we get really discouraged when we see other people receive breakthrough before us and fresh revelation before us. When in all actuality, we should not be jealous or envious of other people's healing. Rather, we should be encouraged that God, if you heal them, you can heal me. That's what. That's what Jairus should have been thinking. God, if. If you stopped for this woman and you healed her in an instant, how much more could you do that for my daughter? Hello. You're not made to bleed forever. God is an on time God. Everything is intentional. Do not be discouraged when God does it for someone else. But he hasn't done it for you yet. Yet, key word yet. Just because God did it for them doesn't mean he's not going to do it for you. It's just a matter of time. It's a different process. God develops people differently. And here's the thing. Here's two sick women. The woman who was bleeding for 12 years and Jairus's daughter. They were both sick, but they had two different processes. Two different lives, two different stories, different. You're called to receive healing. You're called to be free. But it's a different process. It's a different story. And just because this person got free, hey, in Jesus name, I agree with the testimony. I claim it, I increase faith in Jesus mighty name. But it doesn't mean that you're going to have the same exact testimony as Them you're going to be healed. But your process may look different because God's wanting to do different things in your heart and write you a different story, right? Not everyone lives the same life. I just want to encourage that real quick. Oh, man. Let's read the rest. While Jesus was still speaking to some people, or while Jesus was still speaking, some people came to the house, Jairus and the synagogue leader and said, your daughter is dead. They said, why bother the teacher anymore? Overhearing what they said, Jesus told them, do not be afraid. Just believe he did not let anyone follow him except for Peter, James and John, the brother of James. When they came to the home of the synagogue leader, Jesus saw a commotion with people crying and wailing loudly. He went in and said to them, why all this commotion and wailing? The child is not dead, but asleep. But they laughed at him. After he put them all out, he took the child's father and mother and the disciples who were with him, and he went in where the child was. He took her by the hand and said, I don't even know how to pronounce that. Little girl, I say she was 12 years old. Get up. Or sorry, little girl, I say to you, get up. Immediately the girl stood up and began to walk around. She was 12 years old. @ this, they were completely astonished. He gave her strict orders not to let let anyone know about this and told them to give her something to eat. Sometimes after you get healed, you just need something to eat, you know? Oh, man. So good. Oh, so good. So many things. So many things. Okay, I gotta open up my notes real quick because I remember I wrote something with really awesome Jesus. I thank you, Father. Thank you, Father, for what you're doing. Here's the thing about Gyrus's daughter and the difference between Gyrus's daughter, him walking with God, and the woman who got healed in the middle of them walking to Gyrus's house being healed, right? The difference between Gyrus's daughter and the woman who was healed instantly is that sometimes you have to walk with God to get to your healing, right? Sometimes it doesn't happen in an instant. Sometimes it doesn't happen just like that. Sometimes you really do gotta walk with God to get to your place. With healing God, Jesus could have easily healed Jairus's daughter the moment that he saw Jairus's face. But they walked together to their destination. Some of you guys are dealing with things that is a process of healing that you need to walk with God just a little bit. It doesn't mean that God is a bad God for not healing you now. It actually means that he's a great God, that he's wanting to minister to your heart by walking with you, that he's wanting to show you that the way that he walks, the way that he steps, and he's wanting to guide you. He's wanting to comfort you by his staff and lie you down in green passages, just like Psalms 23 says. Like, sometimes you have to walk to God to get to the correct destination. That's it. Because he could have healed Jairus's daughter the moment that Jairus came to Jesus with his request. But Jesus had to walk with Jairus because Jairus had to see something. Jairus had to witness something. Jesus, hear me. Are y'all kidding this? Jairus had to see something. He had to walk with God in order for his daughter to heal. It also was not instant. It took time. Jairus also believed in the power of touch. That's another similarity between Jairus and this bleeding woman. They both believed in the. In the power of touch. Jairus came to Jesus. He said, if you just touch my daughter, she will be healed. This woman's thinking, if I just touch his cloak, I will be healed. There's a power in Jesus's touch. There's a power. Oh, my gosh, I'm so excited. Jesus walked in. His pace was steady. He's steady. He's steady. Be steady with Jesus. God, I ask that you remind your children to be steady with your spirit. Father, show us how to be steady. Father, show us how to have slow faith, slow hands, a steady walk. Show us how to be steady, how to not walk in urgency. That God, you are an on time God. No, no. Yes, man. So in the middle of this healing encounter, Jairus daughter was pronounced dead. And Jesus overhears this, and he is like, yo, yo, yo. He says these amazing things. He says, do not be afraid. Just believe. And one of the things I like to say all the time is that faith and fear are the two things that demand for you to believe in something. You cannot be faithful and fearful at the same time. You cannot be fearful and faithful at the same time. In order for you to have faith, you have to eliminate fear. This is why Jesus tells him, in order for you to believe, for what I'm about to do in your daughter, you must not be afraid. Jesus says, do not be afraid. Just believe. That's it. Fear. Go believe. Are you not encountering the healing that you're supposed to have because your Faith is dull and fear is at an all time high. How big is fear in your life right now? And how can we throw it out the window? And how can we rebuke it to the pits of hell? Because fear is not your ruler. Fear is not your portion. Faith is. And God grants us faith. Jairus had to increase his faith so. So Jesus could do what he was going to do. He said, do not be be afraid, rather have faith. That's what he told the woman who was bleeding. Because of your faith, you have been healed. Because Jairus was faithful about the request that he put upon Jesus, his daughter was healed. So what's the importance of increasing your faith so God heals? We know that Hebrews 11:1 says that now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. So faith is not something we see in the natural eye. 2nd Corinthians 5:7. All day we walk by what faith, not by what sight. Faith is not what you see, it's what you hope for. It's what you have confidence in. Lord, I have confidence that you're going to bring healing to my body. God, I have confidence that I'm not going to have the sickness anymore. God, that I'm going to be free from my mind, that I'm not going to deal with depression or anxiety. Because God, your word says that for God does not give us the spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind. That God, you heal me, that you give me a sound mind, that God you soften my heart and that you give me full love. And that, God, that my. That my bones may be weak, but God, you could throw it out the window and rebuke it to the pits of hell. Because you call me to be a woman and a daughter filled with power. And this isn't something I'm making up in my head. This is biblical. Second Timothy 1, 7. All day. For the Lord does not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind. The Lord Jesus Christ has defeated the dominion of darkness. And because of that we are no longer slaves to fear. We are under the sonship of Christ and we receive his blessings. Sure, we undergo his sufferings, but do we forget the blessings? Sickness and disease is far away from us. When you touch and agree with the spirit of the Lord. Have crazy faith. Have faith. That's crazy. That's it. Jairus daughter was quote unquote dead and yet she was resurrected. She was pronounced dead by medical professionals. I don't care what Earthly person is calling your situation dead. I don't care if you even got a death sentence. I don't care if you've gone to the hospital or if you've received from the doctor that you're supposed to die in five years or that you only got 10 years left due to this condition. Jesus did not allow the word of man to get in the way of his resurrection power. Do you understand? Jesus raises the dead. In your certain circumstance, the thing that you're needing healing in, the thing that you think is dead is actually the thing that God's wanting to bring to life. Exercise, stretch and increase your faith. And let me tell you something, your circumstance right now might be just that. It might be God stretching your faith. And sometimes you have to hit rock bottom to know that God is the rock. Can I get Amen. Do you hear what I'm saying? Sometimes the current circumstance that you are going through is the answer. Prayer of God, increase my faith. Okay, I'm going to step back, so you come and chase me. That's what faith is. Confidence of what we hope for, not for what we see, but what we don't see. Jesus, I'm telling y'all, increase your faith. And I'm not going to give you like an empty. An empty casket here. Like we're. We're going to put some things to death right now. The spirit of fear, the spirit of doubt, every confusing spirit, we send it to the pits of hell today. Amen. Every generational curse of infirmary, I send it to the pits of hell. Rebuke it off of your generational bloodline. If. If everyone in your family just got cancer, if everybody in your family just got heart problems, I rebuke it. I send it to the pits of hell. Now, in the mighty name Jesus, it shall never transfer. It shall never hurt or touch anyone. In Jesus mighty name, it shall never return. In Jesus mighty name, like speak it over yourself. Your tongue declares life or death. Declare life. Declare your place. Declare your space. You are a daughter of the king. You're a princess girl. Declare what the Lord has already promised you. As it is in heaven, so it is on earth. Declare it. Because when you don't declare it, you're giving the enemy a foothold to continuously rob, steal, kill and destroy your life. Or maybe he's not even doing anything. You're digging your own hole because you're not declaring your space. Speak the word of God over your life. It's living and active. That's what Hebrews 4:12 says all day. It's sharper than a double edged sword. Or it is a double edged sword sword sharp. And it divides between the soul and the spirit and it judges the heart and its thoughts and its actions. You got all that you need within the Lord's hands. It's just a matter of touching and agreeing with it. So if you're having a hard time with faith, because I don't want to gas like that, because I could, I could hype you up in the spirit. And you know, I think it's easy to get really encouraged and be like, yeah, let's go faith, faith. And then you're like, oh, how do I do that? You know, I think sometimes we got to understand where faith is produced because I think sometimes we think that faith is something that we produce ourselves. So we're trying to do all these righteous things and we're trying to gain our space next to God through religion and through works. And the Bible tells us that our works are like filthy rags, right? That's what the Bible tells us. But what the Lord is wanting is a humble heart and more importantly, a repentive heart, right? Faith is something that God gives us. We exercise it, but God gives us all things. The moment that we say we give ourselves something, it's taking the glory away from God. Do we understand? So I want to share with you a verse. It's Philippians 1:29 and it says, for it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer for him. So faith is not something that is just produced on our own, it's granted by Christ. So if you're having a hard time being faithful, go to the one who gives you the faith and be admitted and say, God, I'm having a hard time with my faith right now and I need you to help me become more faithful. I need you to instill faith back into my soul. And there's faith practices because here's the thing, we also know that faith without works is dead. That's exactly what this woman did. Jesus, I thank you. Full circle moment. This woman had faith. The woman who was bleeding for 12 years had faith in Jesus that if I just touch his cloak, then he will heal me. She didn't just think that and then went, oh well, yep, God, just heal me right here. And then it didn't happen like that. She had to go and chase God. She had to go and chase Jesus through the crowd. She had her make her way through people. She probably had to get through things that she didn't Want to get through. She had to work to get through the thing that she had faith in. So faith without works is dead. You just can't have faith in something and then do nothing about it. Right. So faith is something that God gives you and then we exercise our faith by following it through a course of action. Correct. So this woman who was bleeding, she had faith that if she touched Jesus's cloak, that he would heal her, but she had to take faith in action by touching his cloak. Do we understand? So let's ask God to grant us faith over the situation. But I'm about to give you examples of how you can stretch and exercise your faith, of how faith without works is dead. This is how you can work in correct fruits in faith. So yeah, like have faith. But how? I have about like nine components that, that would really help. First one is prayer. Right. And prayer is you speaking to God. Matthew 7 says, Ask and you shall receive. Amen. So we know that if God gives really good gifts and I ask and I shall receive, how much more is he going to bless my life? Amen. Prayer is you just talking to God intentionally. It's intentional. God with God, him talking to you, you talking to him. Prayer is a conversation. It's not a monologue, it's a dialogue. It's him and you, him and you. It's not just, okay, I'm gonna, I'm gonna vent God and then I'm gonna leave once I feel good. Like, no, like, like consult with the Lord. Pray, Ask him to give you revelation. Meditate. Right. Second one is the study of Scripture. We know that Hebrews 4:12 says, for the word of God is alive and active, sharper than any double edged sword. It penetrates even to a dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and the attitude of the heart. We know that the Word is living and active. Meaning that what? It's alive and it's effective. Right. If I'm reading the Word of God and it's piercing, it's able to reach the parts of my heart that are super hardened. Right? So you can exercise your faith by reading Scripture, being intentional with scripture and not just saying one verse a day, but being intentional with understanding the stories, understanding the characteristics of God and not just what he could do for you, but just the miraculous, merciful, majestic God that he is. Right. Third one is fellowship. Proverbs 27:17. As iron sharpens iron, so. So one. So one person sharpens another. If you're not surrounded by edifying community and you put yourself in A corner and you're just sobbing your eyes out and you're saying, no testimonials. Your faith isn't being sharpened by other people. You're going to think you're alone because you are isolating yourself. I made a video about this the other day. The number one place that the enemy wants you to be is in a place to where you're by yourself. If you are tempted to sit in your bed and rot all day, let that be the biggest motivation that you need to go out and make some friends. I kid you not. Not, not everybody wants to see you lose. There are real people who want to see you win and real people who want to help you and real people who want to heal you. Stop listening to the adversary. Don't sit sit in your bed all day thinking that you're alone. No one wants to be friends with you and that there's no hope. There is hope. Get up and move if you want to exercise faith. If you've been asking for community, you got to go up and go to the small group. You got to get up and go to the young adults at night. Amen. Fourth is service. Service just makes you more like Jesus and makes you more holy. Right? Once you understand the way that Jesus serves and you step into his shoes, you understand more the characteristics of God. Time. And then just a few other ones. I'm going to go through really quick. Worship. Worship is when you proclaim the goodness of God. And whenever you worship, you're drawing near to his presence. Thank you, God. Sharing Him. Gratitude. Whenever you worship God, you're drawing near to his spirit. Reflection. Looking at your heart, AKA Reflection. Repentance. God. I'm going to reflect on my actions and repent against it. Seeking guidance and mentorship. Seeking people who have gone through the same circumstances as you, people who have wiser counsel. People who could speak into your life. Seek mentorship. Facing doubts and fighting the fight is not giving up. Persevering. Exactly what Joshua 1:9 says. To be strong and courageous, to to be able to withstand great forces of pressure, to endure danger or pain through the Spirit of the Lord. Through the strength of the Lord. To face doubts and to fight the good fight for you to be a champion. Romans 8 says that we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus. Do you believe that? Okay. And then last one, trust and surrender. The Bible says in Proverbs 3, 5, 6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Lean not on your understanding, but trust that he's going to make your path straight. Amen. I'M not going to lean on my own understanding. So, God, I surrender to you my understanding, and I'm going to trust and believe and have hope that you are going to make my path straight. Amen. Those are all faithful exercises. If you want to increase your faith, you're like, dang, I'm just not having a lot of. A lot of faith. Have you been doing any of these nine things? And are you being intentional with it and are you being consistent with it? Because we know that according also to Joshua chapter one, that we must meditate on the word day and night. Are you doing that or are you doing it once a week when you go to church? How faithful are you to consistently seek the Lord's faith or the Lord's feet, not his? You know what I'm saying, Jesus? Now this swagged. Like, this swagged. This was so good. We're gonna pray. We're gonna pray. Let's pray. Let's pray. Let's pray. Dear Heavenly Father, I just thank you, Father, for everything that you said today. I just seal everything that happened in the hearts of those who have listened, God. And I just pray, God, that after this word that your daughters just sit and they reconcile with your goodness. That they reconcile with your. With your healing resurrection power, Father. And that whatever you're meaning to heal in their hearts and their minds and their bodies, Father, let it be so right now, Father. God, I just ask that you increase our faith, Father, that we're admitting the parts of our hearts that are lacking faith. Jesus. Edify our spirits, Jesus. Give us faith. Help us believe you more, God. Give us more evidence, Jesus. Not because we doubt you, Father, but because we just want to see more of you. I thank you, Jesus, for what you've done during this episode and what you're going to continuously do through these people's lives and the healing that's already taken place. In Jesus name, I seal this prayer. Amen. What the freak just happened? What? I need to drink water. I feel like I'm asleep. Really good. Because I felt like I was so in the spirit the whole time. That was so good. Oh, man. I would encourage you, some of you guys, after listening to this episode, just spend some quiet time with the Lord. Like, have, have some, like, skin to skin time with him. Some of you guys are like, what? Like, know how when babies just come out the womb and they just like lay on their mommy's chest, like, and you don't have to say or do anything, just like, be with the Lord, just, just feel his Heart for you.
