26-Jul-2020-15: Gifted - Part 6 The Gift Of Healing

How can we trust God's promise of healing when our experience suggests otherwise?

You are called to walk in the reality of God's healing power, trusting His word over your current circumstances. Even if you don't see immediate results, believe that Jesus is Lord over your sickness and insecurities. Take your experience to the word and step out in faith to pray for others today.

What is the mission of "The Real Church Podcast" and how does the gifted series build upon previous messages?

Welcome to The Real Church Podcast. Our mission is for you to know the love of Jesus and live out your "God given purpose". Now join us and listen in to the latest message from pastor David John Phillips.

Father God, thank you for your love. Thank you for your **overwhelming love**. It seems, logically, it does seem reckless. Logically to our finite brains that you would send your son, *Jesus* Christ, to die in our place that seems like a reckless father, but yet you're amazing and your love is wonderful. And that's how much you love us.

The Bible says you love us as much as you love Jesus, even before we receive you. *Lord* God, I pray that people experience. I can't pray that. I'll have to teach why where the Bible says that, people doubt my prayer. I'm sorry.

You ready, Emily? Yeah. Okay. If anybody's wondering, it says in John-17 that the Father loves the Son as much as He loves the world. Our Father loves the world as much as He loves the Son.

Anyway. Okay. Father God, I thank you for who you are. Lord, I thank you that you are love. I thank you that you love us in a way that is almost unimaginable to us.

Father, I pray that every single person that is watching this feed right now, whether it's Sunday morning or whether it's down the road 2 or 3 years in advance, Lord, I pray that they experience you are timeless. They experience the timeless love of the Father today. Lord, and I pray your truth and grace. Grace only comes wrapped in truth, and truth really only comes wrapped in grace, which is amazing and wonderful. They're on the same team.

*Lord, I pray your truth and grace* breaks down our our walls, our ideologies, our our preferences, and and helps us to walk in the reality of who you are, and who we are in you today. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen, and amen, and amen some more. Well, welcome once again to Real Church Online. I'm ecstatic that I get to be the pastor of this church.

I'm thankful that God called me here. My name is David John Phillips. My my wife and I got to plant this church in September 2018, and I say right now, right where we are, I believe that we are stronger than ever based on COVID 19, based on, you know, us not being able to meet together on Sunday mornings, that has not phased us 1 bit. We are stronger than ever, not because of circumstance, but because of what God is doing in and through the families and the individuals of our church. And I encourage you, I plead with you, I implore you, if you're not connected to a local body of Christ, get connected to Real Church.

And if you call Real Church your home, you are as connected as you want to be. I encourage you to want to be more connected, because God is doing miraculous, miraculous, miraculous things, and the best is yet to come. Yes, we do have an announcement, a major announcement that we're gonna be sharing today, and you're gonna have to wait a little bit more for it. So we'll talk about it at the end of the message. So today, we are continuing the gifted series.

I don't know about you, but I've loved going through. I've loved learning. God showing me things as we go through scripture. I love the gifted series so far. Part 1, just a general overview.

Part 1, we talked about gifted from the father. Right? Every good and perfect gifts comes from the Father above. Part 2, and and also the Father gave the Holy Spirit to Christ. Christ poured out the Holy Spirit.

Part 2, we talked about gifted of Christ. Right? Christ apportions grace, and he does he's not stingy with grace. He actually lavishes it on us in ways that are more than we can even believe and receive. And then he also gave the the mentors of the church.

We talked about that. Part 3, we talked about the Holy Spirit. And in part 3, it is really, really foundational for the rest of the messages. So if you haven't heard part 3, gifted, the gifts from the Holy Spirit, I encourage you to go back and listen. It sets a foundation, and the foundation of everything in our walk with Jesus is Jesus, and it's our identity in Him.

It's not only who He is, but it's who He says that we are. Because if we if we miss that, then we get out of order, and we get out of balance, and we build our life on trying to get somewhere, instead of realizing that He because of His word, we already are somewhere, which is so good. So I encourage you, go listen to to part 3 if you haven't already. Part 4, we dove into something that would be considered extremely controversial. If you look at the different, you know, quote unquote divisions or denominations of the church, I call them divisions.

How are believers equipped for the works of ministry and what defines the gift of healing according to Scripture?

It's not God's heart, God's heart's unity. But but in part 4, we talked about understanding tongues. Right? And if you've ever wondered about tongues, or what the scripture says about tongues, or why this, or why that, it's just real practical what that looks like in your daily life. So I I would encourage you to go back there.

And then part 5, we talked about prophecy, and and had an amazing, amazing, mighty woman of God, and and and prophet Sandy Renner, who who encouraged us there. And once again, I hope that all of this has been very encouraging to you and uplifting. And then today, honestly, I was thinking about being done with the gifted series and moving on, and God just wouldn't let me. He wants his people. And because I I haven't got to teach on the spiritual gifts until this series.

For the last 2 years, I've been wanting to, and I started, and I was gonna move on. And no, God wants you guys equipped for the works of ministry. He wants you equipped for the works of ministry. You, according to Ephesians-4:12, and 2 Corinthians-5:17-19, you are a minister of the gospel, called to be a minister of what is reconciliation. Right?

You're you're called to to show others the love of Jesus, not counting people's sins against them. *2 Corinthians-5:18* and 19. You're you're called to do that, and and you do that effectively by faith, and faith works through love. So it's by love, with faith, and God equips us with gifts, the Holy Spirit, or manifestations of the Holy Spirit in our daily life, in order to help the seeds of the gospel to be planted in people's hearts more effectively. And we talked about what is what is the gift.

According to Scripture, it's **undeserved favor**. Charismata is the Greek word for it. Simply means undeserved favor. So so remember, and I know this is kind of like a big general overview, but the Bible says it's the kindness of God that's intended to lead a man to repentance or a person to repentance. So it's God's the Holy Spirit's gifts, these undeserved favor, His kindness to us, and we get to participate with Him, so we get to let His kindness flow through us, that undeserved favor, and supernaturally imp supernaturally implant seeds of the gospel in people around us.

And so for you to be effective at your calling in life, which is to be a minister of the gospel in your workplace, in your family, in your daily life, at home, when you're at recreation, wherever you are. You're called to be a minister of the gospel. And so for you to be able to do that effectively, you need to be equipped and to understand how to practically walk in the gifts of the spirit. But not only that, to break down any strongholds in our mind, any unbelief, any things that would or anything that would prevent us from walking in those things. And we're gonna talk about that today with the base of this message being the start of understanding the gift or the manifestation of *healing* in your daily life.

I'm excited. Can't tell already. I'm pretty stoked. So gifted part 6, *healing* or understanding healing. And maybe maybe this is you because there's a lot of people that have trouble with the gift of healing.

And there's many books written on why people don't get healed. And really, I think they're junk. I think there are there are a bunch of excuses trying to make excuses for, you know, or write a theology about my lack of an experience, when His word is clear. So instead of reading a bunch of books trying to make ourselves feel better about what we haven't experienced, let's go to Jesus and magnify what He says first, and let what he says break down all of our lack of experience, and bring our lack of experience to his feet, and says, say Jesus, you are Lord over what I've experienced. I give you what I've always believed.

I give you what I've always struggled with. I give you everything right now. Would you teach me to to submit my experience, my life, and what I've always been taught to who you are. Jesus, you are Lord. If you're willing to do that, why don't we pray right now?

Father, father, just just as a body, just agree with me in prayer. Father, as a body right now, we ask you to speak. We ask you to teach us. We ask you to to break wrong believing systems of thought that have held us back from walking in what you have called us to. In Jesus name.

*Amen*. And amen. You ever wonder, especially if you're a part of the American church, you know, for for those of you globally, maybe maybe you've wondered this as well. But but me, growing up in America, I know. I've I've heard it, especially growing up in the Bible Belt.

But anybody, I mean, you've been around American churches. You flip through the channels. You've seen preachers preach on TV. Maybe, just maybe, you've heard this in your life. Maybe you've heard, why is it that miracles don't happen in America, or miracles don't happen in my church?

Why is it that healing doesn't happen in my life? Why is it that this hasn't happened to me? And and yet, you know, that's for you ever heard that that that thought? Oh, that's for those missionaries that go to Africa, or those missionaries that go to India, or or South America. You you hear all of these things, and and and you hear all of these amazing, wonderful miracles, and and you're amazed, and and it's like, wow, that's cool.

But really deep down, you're like, I've never really seen that here. I've never really seen that in my life. So you hear the excuse that, oh, that's just for them. I don't know about you, but I I've heard that line of thinking, that that thought process a lot growing up, and especially in the Bible Belt. And God has given the answer.

We're gonna talk about it today. So I wanna I wanna teach on first, though. I just I just wanna teach on healing a little bit. Let's go to to Matthew-15. In Matthew-15, we see verse 21.

What does the encounter between Jesus and the Canaanite woman reveal about faith and healing for all people?

It says, leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. Verse 22, a Canaanite woman. Now just so you know, Jesus is a Jew. Right? Jesus was born a Jew, and Jews are not supposed to really associate with non Jews unless they were, you know, followers of the law and that kind of thing.

And and so so what happened here? Verse 22, a Canaanite woman who was not taught the law growing up. Right? They followed some of their Canaanite pagan gods or something like that. So there's no there's no telling what this Canaanite woman grew up believing, or what she grew up doing.

But we know some things from from this. It says, a Canaanite woman from the vicinity, so the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon, came to him crying out, *Lord*, son of David, have mercy on me. My daughter is demon possessed and suffering terribly. So despite this Canaanite woman's past, despite the fact that she wasn't a Jew, despite what she hadn't done or what she had done, here's what she did do in the moment. Her the circumstance was her daughter was demon possessed and suffering terribly, and she brought her circumstance to Jesus, and she called Him Lord over her circumstance.

You are Lord. Son of David means Messiah. It's like Savior. You are Lord. You are the Savior.

Here's my circumstance. I'm presenting it to your feet. I don't have nowhere else to go. Save me. Help me, Lord.

That's what she's saying. *Jesus* did not answer a word. Interesting. So his disciples came to him and urged him, send her away for she keeps crying out after us. She didn't stop.

He answered, I was only sent to the "lost sheep of Israel". The woman came and knelt before him, saying, Lord. She called again. Came and knelt before him saying, Lord, help me, she said. He replied, it's not right to take the children's bread and toss it to the dogs.

That sounds, especially in today's race infused thing that's going on, it sounds like Jesus is making a racist statement. Right? Hey, it's not right to take the children's bread, the children of Israel, and toss it to the the non Jews. It's not okay. It's interesting.

*Jesus* is testing some things, and and Jesus being fully man, but yet fully God in the flesh, he can test as led. What he's he's he's living his life as led by the Holy Spirit. He's testing some things. He's saying something here. Despite what he said, or how she coulda got offended, or how she coulda done this, she didn't say, well, are you calling me a dog now?

I'm out. She didn't do that. What did she do? Remember, he said, it is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to the dogs, and she contradicted him. Verse 27.

She says, yes, it is, Lord. She said, even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table. That's amazing. She didn't care where she had come from. She didn't care what everyone else said about her.

She didn't care about cultural norms. She was setting cultural norms aside. She didn't care what she hadn't done, because she probably hadn't followed the law. So she hadn't earned anything. She was setting all of that aside, and seeing that *Jesus* was Lord over her past.

*Jesus was Lord over the cultural norms. Jesus was "Lord over all"* of that. So she was taking her circumstance despite what everybody said, and setting it at the feet of Jesus, and sitting there knowing that he's Lord despite what everybody says. She magnified Jesus over her circumstance. Verse 28.

Then Jesus said to her, woman, you have great faith. Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word about Christ. That's what scripture says. Faith comes by seeing Jesus and hearing Jesus, and her focus was on Jesus. And Jesus even commented, woman, you have great faith.

If I'm correct, I think there's only 2 places where Jesus said, you have great faith, and it was 2 non Jews because their their focus was on Jesus and what they couldn't earn, *grace*, undeserved favor. So good. Then then he said, request is granted. And her daughter was healed at that moment. I wanna magnify Jesus over everything.

How should believers focus on Jesus rather than their past or cultural norms to experience God's undeserved favor?

So number 1, just just to make sure we drove this home, her focus isn't on what she is not, or who she isn't. She's a Canaanite, not a Jew. Number 2, her focus isn't on what she hasn't done. Canaanites don't follow the law. Her focus is on what she has done, or her focus isn't on what she has done.

She knows she doesn't deserve this. Her focus is on Jesus. So let's do the same. And just as a side note, healing is the children's bread. And by faith in Christ Jesus, we are children of Israel.

But what we learn from this is healing is not just for the children, healing is for everyone. Healing is for everyone. So let's present *Jesus* to the world, so that they can see him and realize that he is Lord over their circumstance, and experience the undeserved favor of God. Let's go to another passage. Second passage number 2.

How Does Familiarity With Jesus Cause People To Take Offense And Limit His Power?

And, I'm about to read a passage that is notoriously used as an excuse for not being healed, or healing not happening. I think the excuses, personal excuses like that about not being healed are based on personal experience and are junk. And I think we walk by faith, not by experience our experience. We live by what we know based on his word, and we remain there until our experience lines up with his word. Because, like the Canaanite woman, we're magnifying Jesus over our experience, saying, presenting our experience at His feet, and saying, you're Lord, because His love is so much greater than we could ever imagine.

*Mark-6*. Verse 1, Jesus left there and went to his hometown accompanied by his disciples. Jesus is going back where he grew up, back to his friends and family. Didn't say Jesus is going back to his hometown to his disciples in his hometown. No.

He's accompanied by his disciples going to his friends and family. That's important. Verse 2, when the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, as he did, and many who heard him were amazed. Where did this man get these things? They asked.

What's this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable *miracles* he is performing? Isn't this the carpenter? Isn't this Mary's son, and the brother of James and Joseph, and Judges and Simon? Aren't His sisters here with us?

And they took offense at Him. Now now, isn't isn't it crazy? They experienced Jesus. They they heard his teaching, and and they saw the miracles. They heard him and were amazed at him.

They saw the miracles, and they're they they said they were remarkable. Oh my gosh. They had an experience with Jesus. See, a lot of us that grew up in the church, a lot of us that that grew up with Jesus on every corner, Jesus on the on the TV screen, if we can we can turn to it at any moment, 4 or 5 Bibles in our house, or or that friend that would always tell us about Jesus. A lot of those things, we grew up being familiar with Jesus, just like Jesus' family.

Just like Jesus' friends. Just like the people he grew up being around. So, grew up being familiar with with Jesus, but then, when he presents himself as Lord, watch what they did. Watch what they did. In verse 2, it says, when the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed.

Where did this man get these things? They asked. They didn't see him as *Lord* over their circumstance, but they reduced Him to what they were familiar with. I said they didn't see Him as Lord over their circumstance, but they reduced Him to what they were familiar with. They were familiar with the little boy Jesus who grew up.

They were familiar with the little boy who became a carpenter in his twenties probably. And like, hey, this is the They were familiar with *Jesus* the brother of these of his sisters, and Jesus, the older brother. And they were familiar with him, so they reduced him to what they saw in the past familiarity. But when he tried to show them another another part of who he is as the son of God, When they when when He tried to walk in who He really was, they reduced Him to what He was familiar with. And so they took their experience, instead of bringing it to the feet of the Lord, they took their experience elsewhere because they couldn't handle what He really was.

I think in the American church, we do the same thing. I'm not there yet. I'm getting ahead of myself. They took offense at him. What does taking offense mean?

If I took a if I take offense at somebody, 1, I'm putting a fence between us. Right? I'm I'm not gonna get close to them. I'm putting a fence between us. It's a division.

And and and you ever you ever said this? I can't believe they did that. I just can't believe he said that. I just can't believe she said that. Oh my gosh.

Did you hear? I can't I can't believe that's what that person's doing right now. Did you see those miracles? I just can't believe. And they took offense, and a lot of times, that's what we do.

We can't believe. So we take offense. We put a division up. That's for them on the other side of the fence. But over here, we can't believe that because we're not used to it.

So let's reduce *Jesus* to what we grew up with, being familiar with, instead of understanding who He really is, breaking down the fence, breaking down all our boxes, and magnifying Him to Lord over every circumstance that we're going through. He loves you too much to stay in your box. Be free. Verse 4, Jesus said to them, a prophet is not without honor except in his own town, among his own relatives, and his own home. Exactly what I'm saying.

Why Did Jesus Not Do Many Miracles In His Hometown And What Does That Teach Us?

People relegate men of God to what they're familiar with. Well, here, they're relegating Jesus, the Lord of all, to what they're familiar with. And it says, he could not, verse 5, he could not the Greek says, he was not able. He could not do any miracles there except lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them. He was amazed at their lack of faith.

Why was he not able? It wasn't because he didn't want to. Jesus wanted to. He he wanted to. They wouldn't come to him.

They had put a fence up. He's just a dude. I ain't gonna go see him. I ain't gonna I ain't gonna bring the sick in the street. But it says that he was able to lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them.

Why? If he laid his hands on them, that means they came to him. They were the ones that believed. They were the ones that magnified Jesus as the Lord over their situation. Help me.

I need you. I see you as Lord. The rest of them that were familiar, I said, you know what? This experience, this sickness, this this thing I got going on in my body, this circumstance in my family, this this miracle that I need to happen, he's just the carpenter. Or he's just the the the guy in the church that I grew up singing about.

He's just the 1 I read Bible stories about, that my mom and pop told me about, but I never saw any life changing them. So how could he really change my life right now? He's just and relegate *Jesus*, *Lord* over all, to our past experience and take our present hurts, our present experience, and take them elsewhere to try to be healed by our own means instead of placing them at the feet of our Lord like the Canaanite woman did and said, Lord help me. Lord help me. I don't know about you but I wanna exalt Jesus.

I wanna say help my unbelief. Help me to exalt you over everything. Let me never again magnify my circumstance or magnify all of that because I'm familiar with what you've done, and I'm willing not willing to trust you with doing a new thing in my life based on what your word says. And that's why in this gifted series, I had to go here because in order for you to walk in the amazing, undeserved favor and really experience all of the soup He's a supernatural God that supernaturally lives inside of you and wants to supernaturally supernaturally work through you, to experience that supernatural working through you, not because of anything weird, but just because of love, undeserved favor to you and undeserved favor through you. In order for you to experience that, you have to not relegate Jesus to the familiar.

But you have to like the Canaanite woman saying, you're Lord over everything. You're Lord over my life. Help me. I want to know you more. I want to grow in you more.

I want to experience all of you really. Break my boxes. Break my ideologies. Break my the the times where I minimize you, and I don't even realize it because I'm just stuck in some religious bondage that I didn't even know about. *Lord* God, break all of my performance based mindset.

You're not a list of things to do. You're a father who loves me, heavenly father, and I can walk in relationship with you as led by the Holy Spirit. Thank you, Jesus. Help me to live that way in every aspect, so that not only can I experience you, but others can experience you through me? Let's pray together.

Some of you need to repent. It's not a bad word. It's not a I'm not I'm not condemning you by saying that. Repentance just means **change your mind**. It's turning.

I'm turning from what I've always thought, and it's got me to this place right now, and I'm stuck cause I'm not experiencing, and knowing, and experiencing all that you have for me. So in some certain ways in my life, I need to repent, and turn my way of believing, my way of thinking, my way of understanding, from I'll never do that, to God, no matter what you say, even if I always said I'd never do it. Father, I'm gonna follow you, because my trust is not in who I think I am, because I'm it's no longer I who live, but you who live in me. So my trust is in you, and I wanna follow you. Lead me in the way of love, so that I'll I step out of my comfort zone, and I begin to minister to people in ways that you would minister if you were walking in my shoes, because the world around me needs me to get over me, so that they can see you through me.

I wanna share a testimony with you. Just a couple days ago, I was getting some some food for our leaders meeting, and it was on a time crunch. And a lot of times, it's in the distractions. When you think you're going for a certain thing, it's in the distractions that Jesus meets people where they are, and it's beautiful. I I I took my daughter, Selah, her name's Selah, she's 6 years old.

I took her on a daddy daughter date, which just means she got to come with me, and we got something special for her, and she loves it, and it's amazing and wonderful. And it's it's Anyway, I do that from time to time for my kids. So we go to Publix, and we go to to pick up her a special treat on the way to get the the the food. And we get this popsicle, and we go and stand in the line, and and Selah sees this this lady in front of us, and she notices that the bag that she was holding had a hole in it. So frozen food and and stuff, and she says, ma'am, your bag has a hole in it.

A 6 year old little girl interrupting that she said, say she said, baby, I wanna buy your your your popsicle for you. And so I was like, wow. You know, so she bought our popsicle for us. As as she gets done buying the popsicle, I say, ma'am, I wanna bless you. I said, can I pray for you?

How Does The Testimony Of Healing Demonstrate The Need To Trust God Over Visible Evidence?

And I prayed that God would just bless her, and she'd experience the love. This is in Publix. Right? And and we're standing right there. She had just paid, and and actually, she was writing the check as I was praying for for her food, and I was just praying that God would bless her, she experienced God's love like never before, and and I thanked her, and then Selah and I began to walk out.

And we walked through the door, she's about 10 feet behind us, as we're walking through the doors of Publix, I have a thought. She needs healing. She's got pain in her body. She's sick. And I've got in the habit for the most part.

Sometimes I try to ignore them because flesh. Oh, I'm busy, blah blah blah. But I heard it, so I stopped. I knew that wasn't me. I said, Selah, let's go pray for her.

Come on. So I go back to the lady. I said, ma'am, I said, as I was walking out, I just had the thought to come back and pray again. Are you in pain? And she said, at first she started to say no, she said, well, actually, she said, my my back.

I just had an MRI, and I got a lot of pain in my back and and my blood pressure. I said, well, ma'am, Jesus told me to come back and pray for you for healing. Do you mind if I pray? She said, oh, please do. So I laid my hand on her.

I asked her if it was okay. It's all permission based. Right? So do you mind if I I lay my hand on I laid my hand on her shoulder, and I said, thank you Jesus that you are our healer. In the "name of Jesus", blood pressure go down.

In the name of Jesus, back be healed. In Jesus name, thank you God that you are a healer. We love you and we praise you. *Amen* and amen. She looked at me and she said, thank you.

I said, absolutely. God loves you so much. She said, are you a minister? I said, actually, yeah, I am. And she asked about our church, got all of our information and everything, and I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, I know that she's healed.

Did I see it in the moment? Did she all of a sudden pop up and say, oh, death, felt all No. But but knowing, the Bible says, lay hand hands on the sick, and they shall recover. So, maybe in the next week, 2 weeks, maybe a year from now, I'm gonna get next time I see her around town or she contacts us, we're gonna get a call. Her blood pressure's gonna go down.

Her back's gonna be healed. Why? Because that's what his word says. Just because you don't see it in the moment doesn't mean you don't believe it. You take your experience to the word.

*Jesus is the word. You set it at his feet and keep walking in what he says because you know what he says is greater than what you experience. Jesus is Lord* over your insecurities. He's Lord over everything, and you can walk out what he has spoken. We're gonna go into a time of worship.

And as we worship, as we sing, I I just want you to to realize that he's Lord. He's Lord over everything. I want you to ask him to break all your boxes. I want you to to tell him that you trust him, even as a step of faith. Begin to rejoice.

Sing these songs as a prayer. And you know what? I wanna pray for you right now. Some of you have sickness in your body. Some of you have maybe maybe you have COVID 19.

Maybe you have stuff even worse. Maybe you have cancer. Maybe maybe you're on your deathbed. Maybe it's just a maybe you just have a cold. Maybe you have an earache.

God cares about the big and the little things. There's nothing too small. He is compassionate. He sees your suffering and has a desire to alleviate it, to take it away. He is willing.

Are you willing to take down the wall of offense and not relegate him to what you're familiar with, but receive by placing what he what the placing your experience, your circumstance, what's going on at the feet of the Lord Jesus, and receive the grace that he wants to impart to you right now. If you have pain in your body, I encourage you, just put your hand wherever it is. Just put wherever it is. If it's if it's internal, put your hand over the spot. Just as an act of faith, that's all it is, just a step of faith and receive.

Father, I thank you that you are our healer. You give amazing gifts. You manifest your Holy Spirit in a way called healing. Well, thank you for that. Thank you that healing is the children's bread, but it's also for everyone that's watching.

*Lord, I pray right now in the name of Jesus*, sicknesses, pains, cancers, depression, anxieties, lameness, handicap, whatever's a handicap going on. No matter how big or how small, Jesus is still Lord over all of it. Diseases that you thought were never in are incurable diseases. AIDS, hepatitis, all of it, diabetes, bow right now to the name of the Lord Jesus. We place all of this at your feet.

How does the speaker invoke Jesus' name for healing and life?

In the name of Jesus, I command you to leave. And I **"speak life"** in the replace placement of the sickness. Thank you Jesus that you are the healer. We praise you and we're excited about the testimonies, the stories of what you have done. Not only that, but how people are gonna take this and begin to walk in it in their daily life.

In Jesus name. Amen.
