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 allow Christ to transform your life through His Word, you’ll start to experientially know what it means to abide in Him and Him in you. You’ll begin to demonstrate the life a new creation is meant to live in the earth, and the world will come running to know what you have!
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!
Because you have the Spirit of God in you—you’re in Christ and He’s in you—you are now the light of the world. You have the dominion and are called to decree the gospel of the kingdom—what Jesus accomplished—and are to speak it so captives are set free, and people are healed and made whole!
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!
The reason some fail to receive what God has already given to them is because they’re believing what they see, hear and feel, instead of believing what God has told them in His Word. The sense realm is where the devil operates. God’s Word is spirit and TRUTH! “So, we do not focus on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal” (2 Cor. 4:18 HCSB).
Religious tradition teaches that God uses sickness to teach us. But if that were true, then every person seeking medical help and every doctor who treated them would be in rebellion against God for attempting to heal that afflicted one. Every hospital and medical office would be houses of rebellion. The truth is, Jesus was a revelation of God’s will as He went about HEALING all who were oppressed of the devil! (Acts 10:38)
God tells us in 2 Corinthians 6:16, “I will dwell in them and walk in them and I will be their God and they shall be my people.” You are the temple of the living God! You walk, He’s dwelling in you; you talk, He’s living in you; you experience life, He’s experiencing it through you—you are one with Him! “… he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him” (1 Cor. 6:17).
Fixing your eyes and your heart on Jesus will protect you from all the tricks and traps that this world and the devil try to set against you. A commitment to believe and yield to God’s Word, and His transformation process in you is a good place to begin. He is alive and working, and will lead you down the path He put in your heart, as well as get you off any path that isn’t for you!
