Thank you for this morning.

(Prayer tone.) O Father, that our spiritual ears are open to hear, and our spiritual eyes are open to see. Father, I thank you that you give to your people this morning wisdom, understanding and revelation. Father, that the power of your word, the living Word, for you are the almighty one, you parted the Red Sea, you fed your people manna from heaven and you brought them out of Egypt, not one feeble among them, Father, and you haven't shortened your arm. You're the same yesterday, today and forever.

Father, I thank you for miracles and healing. I thank you that signs and wonders follow your word, and Father, thank you that this air here this morning be electrifying in you. Let healing be in the air, miracles in the air. We just thank you Father, as we reach out to you, that you would give to us in a mighty way this day in Jesus' name, Amen.

(Preaching tone.) If you have your bible there, I called this this morning "Healing Belongs to US", and (ah) you know in Hosea 14:2, it says 'Take with you words, and turn to the Lord.' 'Take with you words'. And this morning a lot of what I say is going to be around our mouth. But before I actually get into the Word, and we go into Scriptures, there's a lot of new people here this morning. I'm going to get Gloria to come here and we're going to do a little illustration so that you get a knowing of the power of God's Word and who you are. Because I feel if you don't know who you are, and the reality of you, it's very hard to walk by faith. You see, we are a spirit, we live in a body, and we have a soul, which is the area of the mind. And the Lord says, 'Receive the engrafted word, which is able to save the soul.' So there's something we've got to do in this area.

We all know this is the battlefield. When sickness comes, you're told a bad report, cancer or whatever, fear comes. Than the thoughts will start to come, maybe, you know, "This is it", or "Time's up". Those thoughts will start to hit you. This is the gateway, the area of the mind.

Gloria is going to be my 'spirit man', the real me. I am a spirit, I live in a body, this flesh side, when it dies it will either be cremated or goes under the ground. And he said, 'Receive the engrafted word which is able to save your soul.' There's something we need to do with this area while we're here on earth. But the real us is a spirit. Every person here who has Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, the real you is spirit. And when you accept Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, this is where the wonderful miracle happens in your spirit man. Now your flesh is still the same. Your flesh hasn't changed.

Some people, when they accept Jesus Christ as Lord of their life, and they've been on drugs, or alcoholism, or healing they need, they're totally different. But that doesn't happen to everybody, and when you accept Jesus Christ is Lord of your life, this flesh man is still the same. There could be still anger there, resentment there, hurt there, bitterness there, sickness still there, and God has given us a way through His Word that this can be transformed, you see. And as we hear the word of God, God says there in that Scripture in Hosea 14:2, 'take with you words and turn to the Lord.' God wants us to take His word, and return it to Him. And the power of God's Word, life is in the Word, hearing is in the Word, deliverance.

Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh. He and His Word are one. And you see, many of us have tried to get rid of this book over the centuries because it is the most powerful anointed book. If Jesus Christ cam to the door here, today, you'd get no more reality that Jesus Christ in this Word. Healing is in the Scriptures, from the Old, right through to the end of the New. And He's given us His Word as our TV guide to life to walk here on earth. That those words become our words.

Jesus says in Matthew 4:4, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.' And Jesus went on to say, 'I only speak what the Father gave me to speak'. So God wants us to renew our minds.

'Be ye', it says in the epistle of John 3:2, 'Be ye , (pause- oh yeah) which above all things you should prosper and be in health, as your soul prospers in the area of the mind.' Romans 12:2 says 'Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind'. So there's something we can do while we are here on earth. You might have come from the background, some of you, said; "Well, healing is for some and not for others."

No, you've got to get rid of that mentality. God is no respecter of persons. He loves every person in this room equally. What he's done for me, what he's done for Gloria, what he's done for other people in this room, he wants to do for you. '

But we have to do something too. 'Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.' And, and this is where the battlefield is. This is where the doubt and the unbelief comes, this is where fear will start out and what you hear- 'faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.' You can go to a doctor, and you can hear a bad report, and that'll hit you. What happens is if it gets down into your spirit man, that's when it's hard to get rid of. But you see, when things come, or bad reports come, or words come that are not very good, you've got to nip it in the bud here. Don't let it get down into here.

Because when you accept Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, the Holy Spirit comes to live in your spirit man. And when you die, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. This goes down under the ground or cremated. So this area is the spirit man, is the heart of man, and so often everywhere in Scripture it talks about the heart of man, it's the spirit of man. And so, 'Faith cometh by hearing.' You hear the Word of God, and so often it only gets into the mental realm. We've got to take the time to put it into the spirit man, and once you feed it into the spirit, the Holy Spirit is in there, and He's painting that picture. He's taking the oil of the Word of God, and He's starting to paint healing in you. That healing is starting to come. And you take that Word. He is the artist, the Word of God is the oil, the spirit man is the canvas.

And you may need healing for cancer. You may need healing for arthritis, you start to hear the Word of God, you start to get washed in the water of the Word, and as you start to hear, what happens is this flesh man starts to get in line with the spirit man. Because this flesh man, before you accepted Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, has always dominated the spirit man. Now the spirit man wants to dominate your flesh man.

Anger wants to leave, resentment, cancer, arthritis, as we start to hear the Word of God. Because it IS medicine. He says 'My Word is life unto those that find it, and health to all their flesh.' And I didn't know any Scripture. I took that one Scripture in Proverbs 24:22 there, 'My Word is life unto those that find it, and health to all their flesh.' And I said, "Lord, 'your Word is health to my flesh', if I can get enough of that in me, do you mean that this is going to be normal, this is going to be healed, health to me?" You start to see? 'Faith cometh by hearing, and the washing of the water of the Word'. And what happens is that this outer man starts to get in line with the spirit man. But a lot of people don't take the time to put it down into the spirit man.

Now up here, they'll know all about the Scriptures. 'By Jesus' stripes I am healed.' 'Jesus took my infirmities and sicknesses.' He sent His Word and He healed me, and He delivered me.' But they don't take the time to put it down in here. And this is where we've got to get it down into your spirit man and ACT on it. And when we start to get it down into your spirit man, what'll happen is this spirit man will then dominate the flesh man and that's when you've got your miracle. That's when you've got your healing. That's when the manifestation will come. He said, 'Be ye transformed by the renewing of your minds.'

So he's saying there that there's something that happens. We can be transformed through His Word. And as we wash ourselves in the water of the Word, faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. And our outer man lines up with the spirit man. And if you've got areas of your life that have a hold on you, whether it's alcoholism, cigarettes, whatever it is, it works exactly the same way as for sickness, or finances, or any area of your life, it will start to work, and change your life. (Thank you, Gloria.)

So let's just turn to (Um) Hebrews 13:15. (Long pause.) Hebrews chapter 13, verse 15. God there in... In Hosea it said, 'Take with you words and turn to the Lord.' So we're taking God's Word and we're going to return his Word unto Him. And in Hebrews 13:15 it says, 'Therefore by him, let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks in His name.' So there's something we've got to do with our lips. 'Give the sacrifice of praise to God, that is., the fruit of our lips giving thanks to God.'

Jesus says, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.' He said, 'I only speak what the Father gave me to speak.' I'm going to read what the sacrifice of praise (is). Why is praising God a sacrifice? The word 'sacrifice' comes from the root, 'thyo' meaning 'to kill or slaughter a purpose'. Praise often requires that we kill our pride, fear, or stop anything that threatens to diminish or interfere with our worship to the Lord. We also discover here that the basis of all praise, the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ. It is by Him, in Him, with Him, to Him, and for Him, that we offer our sacrifice of praise to God. Praise will never be successfully hindered when we keep its focus on Him, the founder and the completer of our salvation. His cross, His blood, His love, His gift in life, His forgiveness for us, keep praise as a living sacrifice.

When God's Word is continually on our lips, whether we've speaking it for healing, finances, whatever area of our life, it is praise unto the Father, And you know, sometimes we don't feel like praising. We don't feel like it because our emotions and our feelings have got in the way. We don't, we might have had a bad report from the doctor, and he, you know, the emotions and the feelings get affected with it.

But the Lord says when we continually praise, you see, Jesus Christ has already done all he's going to do. He did it 2000 years ago for you and me. He took upon Himself every whiplash on His back. (It) was for cancer, for arthritis, for resentment, for hurt, whatever, for our emotions, it was for nervous breakdowns. He's done it all 2000 years ago. He did it for us.

(Tone change...) If you like, you can come and sit right up front here. There's two up here, there's a couple in there, I'll go back this way a bit... (long pause) You can go there. There... (Inaudible.)

(Preaching tone again..) But He's done everything. He did it 2000 years ago, for you and me. And, ah, healing is in the air. All we have to do today is reach out and receive it by faith. That's all God asks of us. He's already done everything. He died for you.

If I said to a lot of you today, "Are you saved?" You'd say "Yes. I know if I died, I'd go home and be with the Lord." That same body that died for us 2000 years ago to be saved. We can't separate healing and salvation, because every whiplash on his back, 37... 39 stripes on his back there, was for every sickness in the world. His blood was shed for you and I for salvation. But it was also shed for you and I to walk in divine health. You can't separate that.

The thorns in his head was for the chastisement of our peace. You've got mental area out there today. He's already died for you to be free from it. So it's what we do as we reach out in faith. His word is faith. His Word is alive and living. 'Be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind.' He says, 'I wish above all things you may prosper and be health as your soul, the area of your mind prospers'. So faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. You know you can hear bad reports and that'll get down into you. But it's what you do to open your ears to hear God's Word that, that spiritual side. Let your ears be opened to hear today what God is saying to you.

One Scripture can turn your whole life around. One Scripture turned my whole life around when I had had a torn valve in the heart and depression and insomnia, on medication for all three. I was in a pit like a bird penned in a cage. You know, you can be the most depressed person in here today, and you can be saying, "oh, she doesn't know how I feel, doesn't know what I'm going through.' I used to say that. Nobody had been quite where I'd been. I was an absolute mess. Fear was so great in my life, the hairs on my arms would stand up. I would close my eyes, and faces were laughing at me. I know I'm talking to people, you see, that's why I'm bringing, coming out into these things. But you might feel, 'oh but she doesn't know.' Your life can be an absolute mess, but, you know, in 2 Corinthians 4: 18 says ' Things that are seen are temporal; they're subject to change with God'. Where doctors can do nothing, God can do something. He's given us a way to be free, you see. But people, we've learnt over the years that God heals some and he doesn't heal others. No, you need to know that healing belongs to you.

I tell you, I'd rather go home and be with the Lord, saying what God says about me than what man says about me. And I'd rather know that in my, my heart that I'd walked that word of faith. I've reached out to God. I've done all that I've known to do because He's no respector of persons. God doesn't miss it. We miss it somewhere. So God wants us to reach out, and that's why when we come together, to keep coming and hearing the word, grow in faith. If you hearing doubt and, and unbelief which I was at the time I wanted to start to walk in health, I couldn't hear this and then come and hear that.

If you're desperate for healing, you need to get tapes. You need to get into the Word of God. You need to grow in it. You need to be saturated in it. Because I thought the Devil at that time was on the inside of me. And I knew, and Jesus said in Matthew 8:16, "He spoke but a word, and the spirits left'. And that was where I was at in my life. I was in such torment and turmoil in my life, that I thought, "Lord, if I can saturate myself, I can wash myself in the Word of God, that if there is anything there, it has to leave. Because God's Word is spirit. Just as if it's cancer, if it's arthritis, it has to leave because he sent His Word and He healed us, and delivered us from all their destruction. So we take that word and we wash it. Just think of it as water. You're under a shower and (uh) it's washing all the dirt off you. Just think of the water , Word of God as water, and it is, it's just washing, you're washing yourself in the water of the Word. It says 'Husband, wash your wife' in the water of the Word. It's normally wives washing their husbands in the water of the Word. But we can wash one another in the water of the Word.

Let's just turn to Hebrews again. Oh, we're in Hebrews. Let's go to Hebrews 11:1. (pause) Hebrews chapter eleven, verse one. 'Now faith is (pause) the substance of things hoped for, and the evidence of things not seen.' Now 'faith is"- the Word of God is always now, because Jesus Christ has already done all he's gunna (going to) do. He did it 2000 years ago. Healing is in the air. The Word of God is always now. Faith is always now, and it's the substance of things hoped for. You might be out there hoping for healing today. You know, as long as you've got hope, you can always add faith to it. Doesn't matter if somebody's got a month to live as long as there's hope there, you can add faith to it. Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

So the Word of God is always now. It's the substance of things hoped for. What is the substance? It's the Word. If somebody left you a house in Queensland, say, and they sent you over the title deed to that house, and you opened that title deed and you looked at it. And you said, "Oh, look what's been left to us! This beautiful home." There was a picture there of it, everything, of this beautiful home in Queensland. And you opened that, it's been signed. It's been sealed. You know it was yours.

Well, the Word of God is yours. It's been signed. It's been sealed. The price has been paid 2000 years ago. It's already done for us. Healing belongs to us. Jesus Christ paid the price for us. It's already been done. It's ours. Just like, it's more real than that title deed there, because it's written, and it's right in front of you. He says, 'by your, by Jesus' stripes you're healed.' It says, Matthew 8:17, 'Jesus took your infirmities and sicknesses.' Isaiah 53: 4 and 5 there, 'he was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of his peace was upon us, and by his stripes we WERE healed '. Didn't say we were GOING to be healed. We WERE healed. Isaiah was prophesying back there in Isaiah of what Jesus was going to do.

And come into the New Testament. Matthew 8:17 said 'He took", he has taken our infirmities, he's taken cancer. He's taken arthritis. He paid the price. If you are out there today you see your cancer in Jesus. He has already done it. That great exchange He did for you for eternal life. His Spirit came into you and, and you into He. He paid the price. And it's like you came into one another. The vine is in the branch and the branch is in the vine. 'You are a royal priesthood and a chosen generation'. 'You are already seated in heavenly places', it says in Ephesians 2:6. 'by faith'.

So we've got to start walking out of the throne room. You are already there, by faith. If you died now, in Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, you're seated in heaven . There's no sickness in heaven. No cancer, no arthritis, no, no any other disease in heaven. So he doesn't want you to go home early. What good are you up there to Him? If you've got family here, you've got children there. He wants, he promises us in the end of Psalm 91 'long life and His salvation'. So he wants us to walk in victory. He WANTS us to be here to see the grandchildren get married. What good are we to Him in heaven? He WANTS us to be a testimony unto Him. He WANTS us to go round, saying "Jesus Christ healed me of arthritis. Jesus Christ has healed me." What a wonderful testimony to a sick and dying world right there! What good are you home in heaven to Him? And He's no respecter of persons. He loves us all equally. It says, "now faith is'. The Word of God is always now. And when you get prayed for, you may come up, and say "I've been up into the healing line 10 times". But you see faith cometh by hearing, and that, that Word of God, just as I had Gloria up here, and you're hearing that Word, that Word is the seed and you plant it into your spirit man. And it starts to grow on the inside, because the Word of God is faith. It starts to grow.

And that seed, you can't see it grow. Now 'faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen'. You can't see faith. If you could see it, you wouldn't have to believe. Once you've got it, you don't have to believe, do you? But our Word is a seed, and it gets planted in that spirit man, and it starts to grow on the inside. And you can't see it growing . You just keep hearing, and washing yourself in the water.

Pain might get worse. You say, "I'm getting worse. That Word of God's not working." No. You say, when the pain gets worse, you say, "Thank you, Jesus. By your stripes I am healed. You and your Word are one, and in your Word you say 'deliverance is mine. Healing is mine. Jesus paid the price 2000 years ago". That, that faith is growing on the inside. You mightn't, you won't see it. But it's growing, and it's starting to grow, and it's grown. You might come up in the healing line. We lay hands on you, might go away and think, " Oh nothin(g) much happened to me' But you say, "Yes, it did. 'By Jesus' stripes'. That point of contact was when I received my healing." You might come back again and, and Gloria or I will call for healing again. You come up and say, but you think, "Well, I've been up in the healing line. I'm healed". You can come again. The faith is growing. You say "Agree with me that I am healed." You just keep the answer out there. You call things that are not, as though they are. And that's really what faith is. It's the Word of God. You take that Word. You're speaking, and you returning God's Word unto Him, it says in Hosea there. 'Return my Word unto me'. And we're just speaking God's Word out. It's like, it's like a circle, comes from God. The Word of God is from God. He created, and if you read there. I'm getting a bit before myself.

But in Hebrews 11:3 there, it says, 'By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God. So that things which are seen were not made of things which are visible'. There in Hebrews 11:3. 'By faith we understand the worlds were framed by the Word of God'. How did God create the world? (pause) With His Words. And so we create our world. We frame our world with our words. Your faith will be no higher than your mouth. You are where you are today by the words of your mouth. I tell you, I was sick, I was my own worst enemy. "I'm gettin(g) worse. I'm depressed." Self pity nearly- I mean, I was always looking in. I was looking down in here, "Poor old me. I'm getting worse." And that's what I was saying. And I'd say, "Lord, break my heart.' Sure enough, the Devil was breaking my heart. But my natural heart. I didn't know I was a spirit man. I didn't know anything about the Scriptures. I was saying, "Lord, tear me apart. Break my heart. I'm un- you know, make me unworthy." You know, and I went, I was, I was learning all that. That was wrong teaching.
Words are powerful. Words are alive and living. Your words can turn your whole life around today, if you start to say, "the best is yet to come. I am recovering. Good things are happening". And when you don't feel like it, when it doesn't look like it, I tell you, God will come on the scene. He and His Word are one. His Word is faith. It's alive. It's living, it's tangible, anointed. It will start to change you on the inside in your spirit man. He created the world with words, and we create our world with our words.

We frame our families with our words. You know, every time I go in a supermarket and I hear somebody say, "You little devil" to one of their children, you think, "Ooh, what are they speaking over that child? You see through television, through the press, we've become such a negative society today. There's no good news. It's all bad news. So the whole time, people are speaking bad things, all the time.

But yet, in this Word you'll never find a, a greater (um) thoughts than what Jesus Christ. He always spoke the answer. Never spoke the problem. He said, "Man should not live by bread alone but every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. I only speak what the Father gave me to speak'. He always spoke the answer, not the problem. And you might say, "but, oh, I'm LYING when I say that". How can you lie, when you are saying about yourself what God says about you? He made you in the image of He. He said you'd have dominion over the fish of the sea, the fowl of the air, over every living thing. He gave to man the (prime?), because if you were the only person in the world, that's how much he loves you, because He made you to have fellowship with Him.

And God sees you valuable and precious, and God wants you strong. He wants you bold. He wants you healed. He wants you walking in divine health. When your sick and defeated, you're not a testimony to Him. And we've been taught we go through the suffering for the glory of Christ. I want to tell you, I was taught that. And I tell you, if I kept going down the same track, I'd be home with the Lord today. Or I'd be in the mental hospital. And I was going down that track, but I heard the good news.

And 2 Timothy 1: 7 said, 'I haven't given you a spirit of fear, but power and love, and sound mind.' That one scripture turned my whole life around. And that track was going down that way, I turned it around, and I started to find there was hope for me. But I could add faith to it. And I started to just wash myself. I'd go for walks and wash myself. And I remember a man of God saying, "Well, if you don't see yourself running, start seeing yourself running. Start to call it forth". So I started to see myself running then. I started to see myself playing tennis. Then in the natural, I couldn't. I was too sick. But I started to speak it. And then I started to take a little step, put my, my action, my faith. Faith without works is dead. And we need to act in faith.

You know if you didn't love gardening, you loved gardening, and you couldn't do it now, just go and pull something out of the garden and say, "Father, I'm seeing myself down there gardening again." Just pull something out. DON'T over do it. Just little by little. You start to put your faith out there. You start to walk towards your desire. God gives you the desires of your heart. He loves us so much. He made us in the image of HE. He's got no deficiencies in heaven. He doesn't need cancer in heaven.

And it says, 'By faith we're already SEATED in heaven'. And God wants us- how often many of us have said the Our Father? 'Let it be here on earth as it is in heaven'. There's no cancer and no sickness, arthritis, depression, in heaven. And he wants us to walk here on earth as it is in heaven. Let's just finish there. 'Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, evidence of things not seen'. So the Word of God becomes your substance. The word of God becomes your evidence. And if you look there in (verse) 2 it says, 'For by it, the elders have obtained a good testimony' In another, another (er) bible it says, 'they obtained a good report'. And do you know, when people used to phone me, they'd say "How are you?" I'd say, "The best is yet to come. I'm recovering." I was desperate. I didn't care what they thought. And that wasn't just to believe, I used to say it. Because I wasn't going to let that, those other words negative words come. I wasn't going to let those words that had washed me... You see the double minded man will receive nothing. I thought "I don't care what they, what they think". Because I was desperate. If you don't wait until you get desperate, to start doing that. Start practising it, on the, on the little things. Start putting God's Word out there. This is a (agreement?..) we don't want to get out of bed of the morning. Start saying it as you get out of bed. "This is the best day of my life. The best is yet to come"

And I tell you by the middle of the day, you wash yourself in the Word of God. That's just how you start to feel because the Word of God will control your feelings and emotions. We've let the emotions and the feelings control the Word of God. "This Word is not working. I've feel so miserable". But this word is life-changing. This Word is Faith. This Word is health. This word is alive and living. And by faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God. God spoke the heavens into being. He said, 'Let there be the heavens.' He said, "Let there be the waters. Let there be the grass". He spoke it into being. And we SPEAK our life, our destiny into being. We CHOSE life or death. Nobody else.

You can hear a bad report from the doctor, can get good reports from the Word of God. What are you going to believe? What God says, or what the doctor says? You don't deny it's not there. And you know, if somebody comes along to you, and you, you've had really really bad arthritis, and they say "how's the arthritis?" You say, "Well, you know, arthritis has no control of me anymore. But in the Word of God, it says, 'By Jesus' stripes I am healed.' Jesus took my infirmities and sickness. I'm recovering. " So you bring forth the answer. That, that problem is there. We don't deny it 's there. But we tell it it , it can't stay in our bodies anymore.

Let's go to Hebrews 11 while we're there, and that'll, it says about speaking to the mountain. Hebrews 11:23 . oh Mark 11:23 (laughs) Sorry. Gee we've got some good people here on the Word of God. Mark 11:23. I think I wore a Bible out. I couldn't read Mark 11:23 in one of my old bibles. Mark 11:23. 'assuredly I say unto you, whoever says unto the mountain ".. The mountain is your, the problem that's in your life that's had a hold of you. Whether it's cancer, arthritis, depression, whatever it is, that, that's your mountain.' be removed and be cast into the sea'. It may be grief, it may be hurt, brokenness, that problem, that mountain. And you see, this Word of God whether it's for physical or emotional, it's exactly the same. 'Say unto the mountain 'be thou removed and be cast into the sea' and do not doubt in his heart, but believe upon those things which he says which will come to pass, he shall HAVE whatever he says.' Let me read that again. 'assuredly I say unto you, whoever says unto the mountain, 'be removed and be cast into the sea, and does not doubt in his heart, but believes upon those things he says which will be done, he will HAVE whatever he says.' Therefore I say to you, that whatever things you shall ASK, when you pray, there in 24, believe that you receive them and ye will have them.

23 says 'I'll say unto the mountains'. So the Lord's there telling us when we, that we will say unto the mountain. It says "say" 3 times in there, and 'believe' once. So it's we do with it. That mountain in your life, you speak to that mountain. I used to speak to the heart area, area of the heart. I've got an encyclopedia. I've got a picture of a, a normal heart. Because I couldn't, didn't really know what my heart looked like. And I had a torn valve. I got the encyclopedia. I used to look at it and I'd, I'd picture it up there, and I, I'd say, "That's how my heart is. My heart is healed. My whole heart is whole. Heart trouble, you don't live in my body any more. Jesus took it. Jesus' heart , my heart troubles' upon Jesus, because He took it 2000 years ago." So I started to speak to it. God wants. He said 'say unto the mountain, be thou removed and cast. Do not doubt in your heart but believe upon the things which YOU say. Do you believe upon the things which you say? (Changed volume)

We live in a society today where I think, you know, even when I was a little girl , (um) your handshake (um) just to say something. If somebody said they were going to do something they'd do it. Today's society's not like that anymore. Parents with their children. (tape side A ends. )

My own words. I believe upon the things I say shall come to pass. I shall have whatever you say. Because whether you speak good or evil it will come to pass. There are two realms, good and evil. And Jesus said, you know, He came to destroy the works of the devil. And faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. There's a good realm and there's a bad realm, and it's what we do and we take that word of God and we fight the good fight of faith. He didn't say it'd be easy.

The circumstances in life whether they are family, whether they are children, there's always something. You might be standing for healing and everything around you seems a turmoil at the same time. But you start to learn to work the word in your own life and you'll start to learn to work it in the other circumstances around yourself. You will start to call things that are not as though the are. You will start to speak to the mountain and call the answer in. You will start to praise and thank giving of God's Word. He said 'Let my praise and my word be continually on your lips' and whether you are speaking healing, whether you, .. whatever you are speaking over your children or any area of your life, God's Word is always praise. You are returning the word to the Father, you are thanking Him that you healed when you're not healed, when you don't feel healed. You are praising and thanking Him for what He did on the cross for you. You are praising and thanking Him what He has done for your family. You are praising and thanking Him that you are now in the kingdom, that you have new life, that you have long life and His salvation. You are praising and thanking him that pain doesn't live in your body any more when it is actually there.

You are calling things that are not as though they are. He said SPEAK to the mountain, TELL it it doesn't live in your body because the real you is the spirit. And so that Word of God is faith and in spirit. Your spirit is needing to hear that word, just like ….. my spirit, it needs to hear that and you, you are washing it. It doesn't want to hear, "Well the doctor's bad(s) reports and then you start to speak it to everybody else because that builds even more into you, you see.

Life and death are in the power of the tongue and we eat the fruit of it. He said 'A man (in Proverbs) that keepeth his mouth, keepeth his life.' And your words, you and your words are one, God and his Word is spirit and we are spirit and God's Word is spirit and He LOVES us. And we can take his word and turn our whole destiny around. We can turn our while life around. And as we start to believe upon the things which we say shall come to path, we shall have whatever we say. You might say well "But, I am too far gone". No, you are not too far gone. When you reach out to God it says in Revelations there, I'll just read it to you, I think its Revelations 3 I think it is, 3:20 ( pause )

'Behold I stand at the door and knock. If any one hears my voice and opens the door I will come to him and dine with him and He with me'. and 21 it says 'To him who overcomes I will grant and sit with me on my throne as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne. He who has an ear let him hear what the spirit says to the church'.

The Lord says there, 'Behold I stand at the door and knock if any one hears my voice and opens the door I will come into him and dine with him and be with him'. You know if Jesus was standing at the door there and He knocked on the door and you went and opened the door to him if He was even at the door of your house and you opened the door, and He said "you know, by my stripes you have been healed". And you say "yes" but you'll get no more surety than this Word of God 'cause Jesus is the WORD made flesh. Just think about that, if He was standing right here and He said 'By your stripes I'm healed', the surety is in the word. This is our TV Guide to life. Jesus and his Word are one and you and your word are one because words are spirit whether they're good words or whether they're bad words, there's two rounds, good and evil and its what we take, we take hold of the good, that good will become a part of us. It will be made flesh within us just as Mary, (ah) said 'And the angel appeared to her and said "Mary, thy be of a child" 'and she said "Be it done unto me according to your Word" and she knew the Word of God and when she said that, that was conceived in her spirit man. Well we conceive God's Word exactly the same way. Just as Gloria stood there as my spirit, we conceive that Word exactly the same way. That's why it's so important to hear, ok, don't come just once and hear, just keep coming and washing yourself. I tell you when I needed so desperately I just sat under whatever I could get, and I knew that it would change my life.

But a lot of people want a quick fix, they just say "Yeah, that's it, I have hands laid on me" but they don't intend to grow themselves. And its so important to grow, you know you can see people get up out of wheelchairs and praise the God. I gather yesterday here they showed a video of a lady and a wonderful miracle getting out of a, a wheelchair and she had had a, a vision before of her getting up out of a wheelchair but she, the Lord says 'you are overcoming by the blood of the lamb and the Word of your testimony', she started to declare and decree. And we declare and decree the Word of God before we actually see the manifestation. She declared and decreed that Word so she'll keep her healing, but a lot of people get up out of wheelchairs and walk and not give the glory and praise to God and 3 months later they are back in the wheelchair or something else comes along and they're sick again because they haven't built that Word down into them. It hasn't become life to them. And when it becomes life to you, you just know that you know that you know.

You've got to get it down into the heart of man and to the spirit man. We can know up here and, and its mental accent then but we've got to get it down in there and faith without works is dead. You see I can go along to you and you can see to me "Yeah by Jesus's stripes I'm healed" and you'll meet a great old friend down the street and she'll say "How you goin(g)?" You'll say "Oh I think I'm gettin(g) worse". See a double minded man will receive nothing. That's when you'll go to the others and say "You know life is good, um, I'm recovering" and you see, just through those words you get stronger.

You might think well "I'm tellin(g) a lie. I don't feel like it" but how can you lie when God,.. you say about yourself what God says you. You frame that world, you frame that, that destiny within your own life. You frame that destiny. You can walk into your home and there can be such a heaviness in your home you say "No, the angels are here, Jesus is here, love lives in this home" and I tell you that'll leave. Power in the Word. God created his world. How did you get saved? When you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, thou shalt be saved, its not sitting in church every Sunday thinking I'm a good Christian, or being born into a, a family thinking that my family is a Christian family, I've been a Christian all my life. No, 'cause He loves a drug addict and the alcoholic and when they cry out to Jesus and say "Jesus come into my heart" and I believe in your heart that God raised Jesus from the dead and confessed with my mouth the Lord Jesus, thou shalt be saved.

That's the only way we get SAVED. Its a way we get HEALED. We work it for everything in life exactly the same way, whether its our family, whether its our life, whether its resentment, whether its anger, whether its alcohol, drugs, whatever it is that Word works exactly the same way. That's how much He loves us, 'cause Jesus Christ is the Word made flesh. God came into the earth as man to bring us back into that place of fellowship with Him which they didn't have in the Old Testament. They only had the spirit upon, but in the New Testament when you accept Jesus Christ as Lord of your life, you have the spirit within. And He made us to have fellowship and God wanted to come and bring you and I back into that fellowship, into that relationship with Him.

But He gave us the whole package of salvation, healing, deliverance, safety, soundness and wholeness and that's how much He loves us and YOU can turn your life completely around today. Where you've been going down a track one way with sickness, you can turn around, 'say no more. This is it.' And you've got to make that commitment. You've got to make that decision. When hands are laid on you today, you say "THIS (Claps hands) is it. I thank you, Jesus, by your stripes I am healed" Get the Word of God. WASH yourself. If you come, you keep coming back and hearing it, you come up again, just say agree with me that I'm healed. And, then faith is growing and then one day it just goes off on the inside and you've got it. Like that.

But we reach out, you see. God loves you so much. He made us in the image of He. We are of the real us as a spirit and when we get a revelation that we are a spirit and the Word of God is spirit and it needs feeding and it just keeps us in line and then you start to walk in the presence of God, here on earth.

In the morning, not just coming to church, but in the morning when you get up in the morning, you go to sleep at night you wake in the night, Jesus is there with us. You start to have a mentality that we live in a world, but we are not of the world. We start to walk in God's way.

Amen, let's just bow our heads there.

(Prayer tone) Father, we just thank you. You are a God of the now. And I just feel to challenge some people here today that if you don't know the reality of Christ, just, the eyes bow and heads bowed and eyes closed, if you don't know the reality of Christ. If I said, came to each one of you and said right now "Where are you going to go when you die? Do you know to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. If you're not sure where you're goin(g) to go when you die, you need to put your hand up right now. Just put your hand up if you're not sure where you're goin(g) to go when you die. Be bold, you're amongst people that love you. I did this in my life.

Yeah I see those hands. Any body else. Just put your hand up right now. You might go to church every Sunday and think 'I lead a good life'. I thought I did too. But nobody ever told me I had to make that commitment, the reality of, and invite Jesus Christ into my heart. I tell you, it's the most greatest miracle of all and those people who put up their hands when they give their heart to Christ, believe you are going receive the whole package. Healing, deliverance, safety, soundness, wholeness.

Any body else. You are not sure whether Jesus Christ is the Lord of your life. You've never made that commitment, believe in your heart and confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus. Anybody else. He is not real to you. You don't know if you died right now where you going to go, when you die, you're not sure. If there is any hesitancy there like that at all, (um), you need to put your hand up right now. Any body else. Just put your hand up? Amen.

Those 2 people I am just going to pray with you, we are gunna (going) to say a prayer. Here, Jesus Christ went before man on behalf of us and I tell you, you will never forget today that it's the day that you have given your heart to Christ. I just want to meet you and pray for you those 2 people that put up your hand. Just come now and I'll pray for you. Come on, be bold. (pause …)

And any body else you want to join them, just come along. (pause..) Going to be the best day of your life.

(Other person) It has already been done to me but I was still very confused.

Alright, well I'll just explain it to you that. You know if you, if you, if you've ever done this, 'cause a lot of people don't know and are new. When I gave my heart to Christ I, I, I never quite felt saved at times. But, if you've given your heart to Christ its not something you have to keep doing, but you can do it here today and know that today is the day that you gave your heart to Christ. You don't have to keep going over it, you are believing in your heart and confessing with your mouth, because when you do it like this, your past is completely wiped out. Doesn't matter where you been, what you've done. God doesn't look at it any more and He doesn't want you to look at it any more. Any guilt or anything there if anything, just say "No, the day I gave my heart to Christ, He took it, I don't have it any more", so we'll say the prayer of salvation and KNOW that when you do this it is something that Jesus Christ is going to come and live on the inside of you and, (ah), you know its, it's life changing and think 'that's it'.

But your emotions and feelings now through the Word of God need to get in line with the Word of God. And, and you won't always feel saved but those feelings have got nothing to do with it. Ok?

We'll say this, "Dear Jesus"

(Two People) "Dear Jesus"

"Forgive me for my sins and my past"

(Two People) "Forgive me for my sins and my past"

"I believe in my heart"

(Two People) "I believe in my heart"

"That God raised Jesus from the dead"

(Two People) "That God raised Jesus from the dead"

"And I confess with my mouth"

(Two People) "And I confess with my mouth"

"That Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life"

(Two People) "That Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life"

"That old things are passed away"

(Two People) "That old things are passed away"

"And all things are become new"

(Two People) "And all things are become new"

"I thank you Jesus for coming into my heart today"

(Two People) "I thank you Jesus for coming into my heart today"

"And I'll follow you all the days of my life"

(Two People) "And I'll follow you all the days of my life"

Amen, I'm just going to pray for you now. (pause ….)
