DO YOU HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE HEALING
OR DO YOU NEED GOD’S DIVINE HEALING KIT?
PART 3- HOW DOES IT WORK?-65a
INTRODUCTION
So, let’s get down to the nuts and bolts. Remember, I have the Life Experience and the Scriptures to back up what I am saying. I give all the glory to God.
GOD’S DIVINE HEALING KIT: HOW DOES IT WORK?
1. Everyone has the right equipment; it just requires a Simple Child-like faith) then your mustard seed will work
Romans 12:3 (KJV)
3 For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.
· Now the King James is the only version that gets this right (THE measure of faith) (same amount to each person) doesn’t mean everyone is using the same amount-that’s obvious
· James tell us that faith without works (corresponding actions is dead-
· That’s why when Jesus would pray for someone especially if they were brought by someone else he would have them do something: Life up your withered hand; pick up your mat and walk, etc.
2. Divine Healing Basics
I Thessalonians 5:23
Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ We who are believers in Christ, are made up of three parts: Spirit, Soul and Body
· The SPIRIT is the born-again, divine part of us (It’s perfect)
(Greek word is pneuma=immortal)
· The SOUL is the mind and emotions and will
(Greek word is psyche=of the mind)
- The BODY is our earth suit (it sends us signals-like I’m hot or cold or in pain, etc.)
(Greek Word is Soma= it’s the physical shell)
The Spirit is perfect (Sealed) (It’s the born-again part of us)
Ephesians 1:13
“In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit,
· The BODY is basically neutral
· The SOUL (the mind) is the deciding factor.
3. Remember this-a double minded man is unstable
· The Book of James tells us that he or she is not walking in faith (which would include fear and worry and anxiety) will not receive anything from the Lord
(Romans 12:2)
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind”
4. Don’t Restart every day (Short-circuiting your prayer)
(aborting your answer) You must hold your original confidence to the end
Hebrews 3:12-15 (ESV)
12 Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God.
13 But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
14 For we have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original confidence firm to the end.
15 As it is said, “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
5. When I need healing, I go to God’s GPS
(Gates/Promises/Speak)
Gates
-I enter his gates with thanksgiving; in other words, I get myself into his presence.
(Psalms 100:4)
“Enter into His gates with thanksgivine, and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him and bless His name.”
Promises
-Then I stand on the promise; I get it in my mind and begin meditating and then quote it out loud (Promises that I use frequently and that I stood on for my healing are on my website-under the Divine Healing Tab)
I want to read this Promise again: it is so powerful
II Peter 1:3,4
“His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence, by which he has granted to us his precious and very great promises, so that through them you may become partakers of the divine nature”
Speak
-Then I speak to the mountain. The mountain is your problem. Here is where some make a mistake. They speak to God about their mountain instead of speaking to their mountain about God. Is it really that important you ask? It’s the difference between victory and defeat! Let me just speak plainly. As weird as this may sound to you, it works. Now, at first, you may struggle with your unbelief. Keep at it and ask God to help you overcome your unbelief. Divine healing, at first, may seem like a marathon, but it will turn into a sprint, eventually.
Mark 11:23, 24
Assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.
Therefore, I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.”
(AGAIN, DON’T DIG UP THAT SEED-YOU JUST KEEP THANKING THE LORD AND COMANNDING IT TO MANIFEST AMD OT WILL)
Words are the vehicle that faith travels in and through. But are they from the heart or just from the head? ******
6. EXTRA TIPS:
· If negative thoughts are plaguing you (which is very coming at first)
· Don’t speak them out instead speak out the Promise
· Don’t have McDonalds or Burger King drive through faith. Be patient and stay the course
(if you are impatient-you won’t get to the victory circle-you will quit before (This is an epidemic: People who say yah I tried that, and it didn’t work
(Do you realize that they are saying that God is a liar. Now it’s OK to say I am not sure what I did wrong)
· Start small (NO SHORT-CUTS IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD-INCLUDING HEALING)
(Illustration)
Years ago, I asked an older pastor and he told me about what happened to this friend of mine who I had gone to Bible College with. pastor who I had gone to Bible College with. He was in a little church that was not growing. They may have had 30 or 40 people in the church. But he wanted something bigger and so he made it look on his resume like he had taken the church from 30 to 40 people to around a 100. It made him look like someone who was gifted and was ready for a larger church. He went to this church of about 250 to 300. He couldn’t have the difficulties in the church because he wasn’t ready. So, he was out of ministry then. This was years ago; I hope he humbled himself and went back and did it right and is doing well now.
This is a perfect illustration of Divine Healing. If you wait till you have cancer or some other major health condition you won’t be ready to handle it. Now if you find yourself in that situation then go to someone with a strong track record in this area. You will need the help.
You must start with something small like a headache or a cold and work your way up the ranks of difficulty. For me it was a cyst on my wrist area. It took a few weeks. I struggled at first and then finally it was gone by me standing on the divine healing promises of God
7. So, this is what I do to bring healing to my body:
If I have hurt my shoulder doing something, I simply speak to the mountain (my shoulder). I say, “pain in my shoulder in the name of Jesus be gone” and then I speak to any damage that may be in my shoulder. “In the name of Jesus, any damage to my shoulder be corrected now.” It works every time. It didn’t at first. It took time for my unbelief to diminish and my faith to build. It was a see-saw battle. I kept at it out of necessity and it worked. Now it works every time. It may manifest immediately, or it might take a couple of hours.
These principles will work for anyone. You can adapt things to your own personality. This is how I did it. The principles always work better when you have an intimate relationship with Jesus. Why?
Because you trust him and know his faithfulness. Once you get one victory under your belt, you will want more. Bookmark it and remember, when you are struggling, how faithful God was to you then. Here's what I say, "if he did that, he will do this."
