You have the name of JESUS, and every demonic entity and work MUST bow to that name. Don’t get involved in dialogs and methods! When you get this clearly fixed in your thinking, these things will bow at your command because you’re not backing down. Every foe of the plans and purposes of God—sickness, demons, lack, oppression and fear, in all their forms—is under Jesus’ feet, and YOU are the one with the dominion!
If you are born again in Christ, the ministry of healing is your job. It’s not an option, a movement, a special anointing, a gift of the Holy Spirit or a “special calling” for certain special saints. It is our JOB—a responsibility, an employment, assignment, profession, task, work—our duty. We are to look at healing with the expectation that we are doing our job when we speak, and Jesus is doing His job to bring healing to the hurting, because He paid for it!
When you speak what God says, meditating on the verses and allowing the Lord to write them on your heart, the power of His Word works in you and through you to push out the wrong thinking habits of the old man. Eventually there’s no old man left, and you’re living and walking in the real, New Creation you!
If you are a follower of Christ, then you have His life in you and everything included with it. You have His model of supernatural life, His expectation of answered prayer, His righteous stand before God without shame, guilt, or sin, His heart for lost humanity, His call to give away His free life to others, His victory over the devil, sickness, inferiority and lack. Anything of the curse, you have dominion over!
You’ll never rise above the view you have of yourself. That little movie screen in your mind that keeps showing your mistakes and weaknesses of the past has to go, because that’s NOT who you are anymore! When you were born again and became a New Creation IN CHRIST, the old you in Adam ceased to be, and Jesus came to live in you with all His power and ability. Start finding yourself in the scriptures, then stand up and be who you really are!
Jesus told storms to cease, He told fish to come to the fishermen’s nets, He commanded sickness and demons to leave. In doing this, He was proclaiming by demonstration the dominion, the authority and the restoration of everything back to us in Christ!
Jesus proclaimed the Gospel of the Kingdom, which is justice, our freedom, our redemption, our justification, our salvation and our restoration. He proclaimed it and then He spoke it when He said to the sick, be healed! Blind eyes open! Deaf ears open! He declared for all time that we don’t have to live under the authority of darkness anymore!
The Apostle Paul said in Phil. 4:6-8 not to be anxious about anything, but that when we thankfully commit those things to the Lord, He will guard our hearts and minds with peace. He follows that up by telling us what to think on instead—whatever is true, good, virtuous, pure, loving and commendable. In other words, don’t let your thoughts keep you slogging through the gutter of worry, fear and anxiety about what MIGHT happen. Remember, the future is a phantom—it hasn’t happened! Keep your thoughts and thanksgiving in the NOW, trusting God to take care of those things you have placed in His care. Let HIM take care of the future!
We are like the town criers, announcing the truth to people that they are forgiven, healed and free—it’s already been given to them by grace and they don’t have to earn it! It’s God’s justice delivered to His children in Christ!
People who work too hard at having faith tend to have the least amount of it! They’re more aware of and focused on their lack of it—leaving them feeling like they’ll never measure up—instead of becoming the mountain-movers God intends them to be!
