[00:00:00] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_03]
[00:00:00] I just want to say hi. I'd just like to welcome you guys up to the front as well if you want to worship with us. And I just thank the livestream audience as well for being with us.
[00:00:11] Yeah, just make yourself at home. We're going to worship the Lord and we're going to give Him everything we have. So, just fix your eyes on Him.
[00:00:18] I'm just going to take a minute here and just slow down. Just fix our mind on Him.

[00:00:45] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_04]
[00:00:45] I want you guys just to think of something that maybe is acting like a mountain in your life right now. In your mind, whatever it could be.

[00:08:16] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_03]
[00:08:16] sickness. It could be a relationship that you think is never going to come back. God, I have a vision of like a little kid trying to lift something really heavy and it's so big and it's so hard
[00:08:31] and he can't carry it anymore. And God almost just kind of chuckles because it's not heavy for him.
[00:08:36] It's not hard at all. He's just waiting for the kid to ask him for help. The Lord's just grabbing our hand right now and just taking us and showing us the way. Nothing's too big for him. So we're
[00:08:51] going to sing this again and let's just watch those things fall off our lives as we sing this.
[00:08:55] And he parted the Red Sea, but nothing's too big for him.

[00:09:21] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_04]
[00:09:21] Before you, the demons run and flee.
[00:09:27] The mention of the name, King of Majesty.

[00:09:32] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_02]
[00:09:32] There is no power in the world.

[00:24:36] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_03]
[00:24:36] I call to you above all sickness, all disease, anything going on in our life, Lord.
[00:24:42] We say you're the name above it all.
[00:24:44] Nothing comes close to your name, Lord.
[00:24:46] We thank you that your name be lifted up.
[00:24:55] Thank you guys for worshiping with us.
[00:24:57] It's always great to gather together as a body and worship the Lord.
[00:25:01] So just greet someone again, if you haven't yet, and we're going to do some announcements.

[00:25:06] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_00]
[00:25:06] Thank you, worship team.
[00:25:28] As always, what a blessing to be able to worship together as believers.
[00:25:33] Hallelujah.
[00:25:34] How many believing believers do we have in the house today?
[00:25:38] Hallelujah.
[00:25:39] It works a whole lot better, doesn't it?
[00:25:43] These signs will follow those who don't believe.
[00:25:47] Yeah, I don't think so.
[00:25:49] One lady came up to me one day after I'd ministered in healing school and she said, you know, Daniel, I love you, but I don't believe a word of it.
[00:25:57] And I said, don't worry about it.
[00:25:59] It won't work for you.
[00:26:01] These signs will follow those who believe.
[00:26:04] What signs?
[00:26:05] We're gonna see the works that Jesus did be established in our hearts and then through our lives.
[00:26:12] Thank God that in his presence, well, you know what?
[00:26:15] Where is his presence?
[00:26:18] You are the place of his presence.
[00:26:21] Tell your neighbor he's talking about you again.
[00:26:25] Come on, tell somebody next to you he's talking about you again.
[00:26:28] You are the place of the presence of God and in his presence, oh my goodness, we find everything, hallelujah.
[00:26:37] More than enough, more than enough.
[00:26:40] Praise God, it's good to be here today.
[00:26:42] You glad to be here?
[00:26:44] Amen, those of you joining us on the internet, thank you for being a part of our healing now today.
[00:26:49] What a blessing to be able to have you join us wherever you are joining us from, we are just grateful that you're taking the time to connect with us. We're going to get ready to receive an offering today. So ushers, if you would go ahead
[00:27:01] and come forward and pass out those offering envelopes for those of you who want a record of your giving. We want to just encourage you out of 2 Corinthians chapter 8 today. Hallelujah.
[00:27:15] I love this passage because when we begin with verse 9, kind of just jumping into the middle this chapter it says for you know the grace of our lord jesus christ hallelujah you know the grace
[00:27:28] of the lord jesus christ that though he was rich yet for your sakes he became poor that you through his poverty might become rich hallelujah hallelujah you through his poverty might become become rich. And in this, I give advice. It is to your advantage, not only to be doing what you
[00:27:55] began and were desiring to do a year ago, which was the desire to give, the desire to collect an offering to be able to bless. And in verse 11, it says, but now you must also complete the doing of
[00:28:11] it. So first of all, it began with a desire a year earlier. Hallelujah. And now the apostle Paul is encouraging the Corinthians in verse 11 by saying, now you must complete the doing of it. That as
[00:28:28] there was a readiness to desire it, so there also may be a completion out of what you have.
[00:28:36] Now listen to this, verse 12.
[00:28:38] For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has and not according to what he does not have.
[00:28:48] For I do not mean that others should be eased and you burdened, but by an equality that now at this time your abundance may supply their lack and that their abundance may also supply your lack
[00:29:03] that there may be equality as it is written.
[00:29:07] He who gathered much had nothing left over and he who gathered little had no lack.
[00:29:14] So God is just saying for us that it begins as a desire.
[00:29:18] Amen.
[00:29:19] What do you want?
[00:29:20] How do you wanna bless?
[00:29:22] How do you wanna live?
[00:29:24] How do you wanna give?
[00:29:26] And it's not according to what we don't have, but it's according to what we do have.
[00:29:31] And many times, you know, desire to do something bigger than what we currently have the means to be able to accomplish, God says, it's okay. That's how it starts. It begins as a desire, even if it takes a year to
[00:29:45] complete as it did for them. A year earlier, it began as a desire. And now the apostle Paul is saying, now I want you to complete what you began as a desire a year ago. So let me tell you, we're
[00:30:00] all in process, aren't we? Amen. Things that we've desired maybe years ago, don't abort those desires because what God planted in your heart is meant for harvest. Amen. And God wants you to prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers. Why? Because Jesus became poor so that you through his
[00:30:23] poverty might become rich rich in everything rich in grace rich in the treasure of christ that's in you and everything that's flowing out from your life now including your health including your blessings including your finances so we were blessed to be able to be a blessing we know that
[00:30:46] right and so now god is calling us to literally learn how to live to give it's more blessed to give than it is to receive but you know what we need to learn how to live to give because we're
[00:31:00] going to be receiving from the lord all the time and letting that abundance just flow through our hearts and through our lives so again i want to just thank all of you for being a part of our
[00:31:12] healing now, our healing ministry here at Karis Bible College, helping us to be able to get this message further and deeper than ever before. And we are so grateful for the fact that the gospel
[00:31:24] is free, but it takes money to be able to get it out. And so thank you for being a part of getting this message out. We are grateful for every single, I almost said every single mite, but every single
[00:31:38] penny amen hallelujah let's pray father we are so thankful for jesus thank you lord god that you are willing to come and become the word made flesh the word that dwelt among us and we beheld
[00:31:56] you lord thank you for all that you did for us that through your poverty through the crucifixion we might be made rich, that we can now live in resurrection life. We can now live in a place of
[00:32:14] supernatural. We can now live in a place of more than enough. We can now live in a place of exceeding much more glorious life. God, we are so grateful. And out of our gratitude today,
[00:32:30] we want to be able to sow and just invest into this kingdom of God that you have made us a part of that's bigger than any one of us but together we get to really make a difference we really are
[00:32:46] better together and so Lord we want to just thank you for this ministry thank you for Andrew Womack thank you for Karis Bible College thank you for all that you've done through the years and all
[00:32:58] that you're doing now and all that's in your heart to continue to do. God, we just want to be careful to give you all the glory for it. And everybody said in Jesus' name, amen and amen. Thank you,
[00:33:12] if you would go ahead and receive the offering today, that would be awesome. And again, thank you so much for giving. What a blessing to be able to come together and just take some time to
[00:33:24] talk about how God wants us to be living in wellness. Amen. And that healing has been provided for us in Christ. And we get to study this, we get to celebrate it, but we also get
[00:33:38] to be a partaker of that. And so thank God for today. And thank God that we are able to have Barry Bennett back in the house today. Hallelujah. Amen. Barry, we love you. Thank you so much for
[00:33:52] coming. Most of you know about Barry, but let me just tell you a little bit about him. He's a graduate of Christ for the Nations Institute in Dallas, Texas. He's been serving the Lord since
[00:34:02] 1972. And he and his wife, Betty Kay, have served on the mission field in Mexico, in Guatemala, and in Chile, where they spent almost 12 years there before returning to Texas in 2001. Barry Barry then became a director and principal teacher of a Spanish language Bible school,
[00:34:25] and along with his wife, ministered to Cambodian refugees in Dallas as well.
[00:34:31] Barry and Betty Kay also have ministered in home groups and churches and on short-term missions.
[00:34:37] And then in 2007, Barry worked initially as a prayer minister, and later he became a scriptural and doctrinal question answerer that came through the mail and the email.
[00:34:52] And boy, there was a bunch of them, I remember.
[00:34:54] And Barry served there answering all of those questions that came.
[00:35:00] And then he served at several different positions through the years, but now he is serving as the senior instructor here at Karis Bible College.
[00:35:10] And he hosts his own show, Free and Deep, on Gospel Truth Network.
[00:35:16] What a blessing. Amen. So would you join me in giving a great big Healing Now welcome today to Barry Bennett as he comes to minister the Word of God to us.

[00:35:29] [SPEAKER SPEAKER_01]
[00:35:29] Welcome, Barry. Praise God. Good afternoon. How's everyone? How many believe Jesus is Lord?
[00:35:48] Praise God. Jesus is alive. The power of God is alive. The gifts of the Spirit are alive.
[00:35:56] the fruit of the spirit is alive the anointing is alive amen the word of god is alive we don't have a dead god i feel sorry for some of our friends that believe everything has passed
[00:36:10] away uh and you know to hear them talk sometimes you'd think god died when the last apostle died so did god and uh we have this book and that's it and we're just gonna fight about that but
[00:36:23] Now we have a living Lord, praise God, and I am excited to be able to speak and share with you and I'm excited especially because what I'm going to share with you is something that God has been stirring in my own life in the past few weeks and I love to share
[00:36:45] things that are bubbling at the moment and so anyway we'll see how this goes.
[00:36:50] I had one lady comment on YouTube that one of my messages that she likes me, but she doesn't like it when I get, when I yell. And so if you're watching, I'm preparing you. Okay. I'm not sure
[00:37:05] how intense this is going to get, but I am wound up. I'm excited about the word of God. So I want to take you to a scripture that jumped out to me that kind of got the ball rolling in this subject
[00:37:15] in acts 18 verse 9 i'm going to give you a lot of scriptures today acts 18 verse 9 says now the lord spoke to paul in the night by a vision do not be afraid but speak and do not keep silent now i know
[00:37:33] this is talking about him preaching the gospel in different difficult places but that command do not be afraid but speak and do not keep silent triggered something in me that is still bubbling and still going and we'll see where it goes here uh but there is something that is has been
[00:37:53] uh in my life a tendency to not be afraid but to get silent and to begin to lose some of the fire and to begin to be more inward and more contemplative and more meditative and that
[00:38:10] kind of thing which there is nothing wrong with but there comes a time when you've got to make a stand you've got to stand up you've got to start speaking some things whether we're talking about
[00:38:22] preaching the gospel or just enforcing the spiritual will of god in your life and in your environment it's going to take some words it's going to take not just you thinking about it but you speaking the word of god out loud and when we're talking about our our health our physical
[00:38:41] well-being i have discovered that words have power and authority has power and we have been given both and we are we are commissioned to use our authority and our words to make things happen but we've got to be convinced and sometimes we tend to drift back or i'll speak for myself i
[00:39:01] have drifted back from being convinced of some things and then i get stirred and then i i walk in it for a while and then i drift back does that relate to anybody and then i get stirred and i
[00:39:12] stand up and walk in it and then i might drift back well i'm stirred right now all right and i'm committed to not drifting i am i'm not going to be silent anymore about some things going on
[00:39:23] in my life and you know we go through seasons and i am i am speaking the word of god so that's where going with this and I want to start by just building a case for the power of words. God is a
[00:39:35] word God. When he began creation and he saw everything was formless and void and darkness was over the face of the deep and God said let there be light. He didn't think about it. I've
[00:39:52] had a guy recently dialoguing with me and he says I don't think words are necessary you just have to believe it in your heart well i hope he's watching because god didn't just think it in his heart
[00:40:03] god spoke let there be light and there was there is a power there in the release of words that are really the manifestation of the faith and the vision that god had this is what i want this is
[00:40:18] how i get it i'm going to speak what i want what i see in my heart god is a faith god which therefore means god is a word god and what he wants he declares what he wants he declares the title
[00:40:32] of this if you need a title is declare your faith declare your faith what you believe is good but what you believe and declare is better we want to move from just doctrinal comfort into active proactive enforcing of the will of god in our lives and you can sit and meditate and
[00:40:58] think and i do a lot and you can get great revelation and i do a lot but until you stand up and begin to declare some things i'm going to describe in a minute what's going on if you don't
[00:41:12] but there there is much more power in what you declare than what you just think about in fact you will be more dedicated to what you say than to what you think about when you hear yourself
[00:41:21] declare something it becomes more real more alive inside of you and you find yourself more apt to follow what you've said than what you've just thought about because you can quickly forget what you thought about but what you've said is out there all right this is why this is so important
[00:41:38] so god is a word god in romans 4 17. well my voice sounds good today this sounds powerful this sometimes i come in here and it's not that powerful so i don't know if it's that microphone
[00:41:51] or me but i'm happy anyway romans 4 17 says god who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did god speaks what he carries in his heart his desire his will
[00:42:07] his purpose and how did he bring it from the invisible to the visible he declared it he spoke it and god said and god said let there be let there be let there be god speaks and he has made
[00:42:20] us in his image we are word creatures we are created to hear to believe and to speak that's very fundamental very basic but that's where it's at is that we have been created to walk and talk
[00:42:34] with god to hear him and then to declare and to reign over this world with words before sin came in that's the way it was going to be adam and eve were going to rule with words now we've got sin in
[00:42:46] the way and all kinds of stuff but we've been redeemed we're out of the darkness back in the light and we have something that we can do to change the environment of our lives change our
[00:42:56] health change where our destinies if we would learn to speak psalm 33 verse 9 psalm 33 verse 9 says for he spoke and it was done he commanded and it stood fast uh that's the power of god's
[00:43:14] word now you say well yeah that's god well who lives in you we need to start getting identified with the right thing instead of identifying with our sicknesses and our doctor's reports and our our issues of life and all of this and woe is me we need to identify with the greater one who lives
[00:43:32] in us and when he speaks and it stands fast when you speak it should stand fast see and many of us there's kind of a gap between well i understand what you're saying but that's that's
[00:43:43] way out there no it's right in here but you just don't believe it yet that's the problem that's the problem when jesus was in the wilderness in matthew chapter 4 and the enemy came to him and says if you be the son of god obviously the enemy was at the baptism because
[00:44:02] that's where god said this is my beloved son so the devil was there listening so he has jesus out in the wilderness all by himself and he tempts him and he says if you be the son of god i think he
[00:44:13] says that at least twice and and there are three temptations lust of the flesh lust of the eyes pride of life and in each temptation jesus responds with it is written he didn't have to get into a
[00:44:29] big deal and work himself up and and get into some kind of hyper faith or something like this he didn't have to dance around he didn't have to say wait one minute while i work myself up no he very
[00:44:40] calmly just simply declared it is written and he did that three times because the enemy is tends to be persistent so the enemy came back with another temptation and another temptation and three times jesus quoted from deuteronomy which is not where i usually go for my promises but
[00:45:01] jesus used deuteronomy to defeat the devil in a face-to-face confrontation words were spoken that had been written you can have faith in what is written and you can declare what is written and it carries the power and the life and the authority of god into that situation it is written
[00:45:21] jesus is a word lord amen think about you what about you james 4 7 james 4 7 says therefore submit to god resist the devil and he will flee from you well submit to god submit in in in part
[00:45:40] of that at least is submit to the word of god and how do you resist something you don't just you speak if jesus said it is written what should you be taking as an example in your life when the
[00:45:57] enemy comes to steal kill and destroy what should you be saying it is written it is written it is written how often as many times as that comes against you something comes against you no it
[00:46:11] is written and then you might branch off into the different promises different declarations different truths that are a part of you folks we've got to go from doctrine to dominion it's got to become more than just good doctrine and i'm all for good doctrine i have a whole course
[00:46:29] called sound doctrine in third year i love doctrine but it's got to be translated into actually transforming you changing you it's good to read the bible and renew your mind but declaring what is written changes your life changes your life and so we have got to get into
[00:46:51] this place where what is written becomes our life and we are not afraid to stand up and speak it not afraid to stand up and to declare this thing be gone this thing be gone i resist that i come
[00:47:04] against this whatever your situation might be we'll get into more direct healing references here in a minute but it says in uh proverbs 18 21 proverbs 18 21 death and life are in the power
[00:47:22] of the tongue and those who love it will eat its fruit death and life are in the power of your tongue god and i have people also write me and say don't we have an appointed day to die no it's a
[00:47:36] The point is you will die, but you get to choose when, because death and life are in the power of your tongue.
[00:47:43] We talk ourselves into an early grave, or you can talk yourself into with long life, I will satisfy you.
[00:47:50] So much of that is in the power of your tongue.
[00:47:54] How you speak, what you declare, what you don't say can be very damaging as well, because if the enemy is coming in you, coming against you, and you don't say anything, you don't resist, then what's going to happen and you can't blame god because he's put that authority in your heart
[00:48:12] in your mouth death and life are in the power of your tongue jesus said to the enemy it is written and he fled god speaks and calls things that are not as though they are they appear
[00:48:25] and we are god creatures made in his image and we have been given this authority we have been given the ability to speak dogs don't speak frogs don't speak bears don't speak we speak we're the only creatures that are made in the image of god that carry this blessed possession
[00:48:53] of creative words of ruling and reigning words of taking authority kinds of words we get to do that and yet in my own journey i have found many times and i tend to be a very
[00:49:07] quiet person i've shared that before i'm quiet i used to be very timid and shy and all of that kind of thing so that made it even worse but now i'm still quiet i'm not quite as timid and shy
[00:49:17] but i'm still a quiet person i have a quiet personality my wife has a quiet personality we talk once a week if we have to and no but uh but i have to remind myself sometimes to fight back
[00:49:35] about some things and i can i can get i can just say well this will pass well sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't and then i have to decide okay am i going to get proactive am i going to
[00:49:47] fight this thing and i remember one time when i was dealing i was fighting cancer back in 2020 2021 and one day i i just was in bed and i just felt this guilt of barry you should be up you should
[00:50:04] be fighting you should be declaring you should be doing all this stuff and i tell half this story sometimes and i tell both halves other times i'm gonna tell both halves today uh and the lord spoke
[00:50:14] to me and he said barry you can stay right there and i still love you and you're still going to get well i thought praise god that's the first half of the story second half is he went on to say
[00:50:28] or you can get up and make this thing go faster and so i i stayed in bed for about five or ten minutes measuring my options and i finally got up and i got up and i for i was in a very weakened
[00:50:43] state but for about 20 minutes i just i we have a large bedroom and i was back and forth and back and forth and back and forth and karate chopping and speaking and i was i was on fire now i could
[00:50:57] have stayed in bed and god still loves me and i'm still going to get well but i could speed it up i thought okay whatever it takes i'm going to speed it up words have power jesus spoke words to resist
[00:51:10] the devil we are to speak words to resist the devil death and life are in the power of our tongue jesus said in matthew 12 34 out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks and then he moves
[00:51:22] into matthew 12 35 and he says a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good things your healing is in your heart if god lives in you everything you need is in there what
[00:51:35] are you bringing forth and if you never talk never speak never say anything and just think well this will pass and it'll get better maybe it will maybe it won't but the power to change circumstances is
[00:51:47] in your heart and in your mouth up to death and life it says second corinthians 4 13.
[00:51:56] second corinthians 4 13 says and since we have the same spirit of faith according to what is written i believed and therefore i spoke which we can find in the psalms we also believe and therefore
[00:52:08] we speak believing and speaking have to go together you can say you have faith but faith without works is dead and the first work we need to see from our faith is speaking is words is
[00:52:21] declaring getting on on this thing and becoming proactive in your destiny in your health in your life and whatever's going on in your life we have authority to change it because we have the word of
[00:52:36] god we have what is written we have what is written the spirit of faith the spirit of faith is going to speak now what happens in the realm of silence what happens when we don't speak silence
[00:52:56] is you giving the devil permission to steal kill and destroy silence is just backing away from the field of battle and saying it's all yours satan go for it when we don't speak we are giving the
[00:53:11] enemy place in our life when we don't declare it is written it is written it is written if we just sit back and say well i hope this passes maybe it will maybe it won't because your silence is
[00:53:27] allowing the enemy to come in and just destroy your life you've been given words and you're not using them and i'm speaking to me do you know there are religious orders that take vows of silence
[00:53:45] job done devil doesn't have to do anything and then they go ahead and take another vow of poverty as andrew would say how dumb can you be and still breathe you know the two things that god wants to
[00:54:01] invest in us they take a vow away from it i don't understand anyway silence as the enemy's playground silence is you giving legal access into the circumstances of your life you have been given words to resist the devil didn't it just say resist the devil submit to
[00:54:20] god resist the devil he will flee mean meaning he comes he comes and then people say well how often do i have to speak how often do i have to declare so let me help you with this as long as
[00:54:34] it takes here's one way to gauge it one way to measure it any time when you go into silence anytime your symptoms begin to speak you need to get back on the horse any time doubt begins
[00:54:50] to enter you need to get going again anytime fear enters your heart you need to start talking again anytime something is is discomforting you in some way if you're being silent and and the doubts and
[00:55:05] the fears and the the symptoms start screaming out then it's time to speak well how long keep going until you have his peace and the moment that peace leaves and the symptoms start coming back and all
[00:55:18] of it you have to start speaking again in the name of jesus by his stripes it is written by his stripes i am healed he sent his word and healed me and delivered me from all my destructions he's
[00:55:32] forgiven all my my iniquities he's healed all my diseases he redeems my life from destruction he fills my mouth with good things so that my youth is renewed like the eagles the word is medicine
[00:55:43] to my flesh health to my flesh amen and you start going down the long list of all the promises and you begin to declare and you say it is written it is written it is written you need to know what
[00:55:53] is written amen how long do i do it do you have the victory i don't know well let's be quiet for a minute are you afraid of the symptoms are you afraid of the doctor's reports well yeah okay
[00:56:08] start speaking again you keep going until you get the victory you keep going as i've shared about the the dog on the couch if the dog's not not supposed to be on the couch and you get home and the dog's
[00:56:21] on the couch well how many times do i tell it to get off until it gets off some dogs get off right away some dogs don't they wait to see if you mean business some sicknesses leave right away some
[00:56:35] sicknesses wait to see if you mean business but what will people think who cares what if they hear me amen don't be afraid don't be silent as god said to paul speak preach let's go we've got
[00:56:53] to declare you ought to hear me in the car i mean i mean you should have heard me this morning coming up the mountain my goodness when i opened the door anything that was of the darkness had to jump out
[00:57:05] i was cutting loose because there's some stuff going on around my greater family and things that i i'm done with and then some physical nagging things and they could say well embarrass just your age forget my age my youth is renewed like the eagles amen it is written it is written
[00:57:27] it is written it is written it is written i am on fire right now uh ride home with me in the car and you'll see the smoke and the flame whole thing i've had it with this persistent enemy and i've
[00:57:43] realized that when i'm silent he's active when i quit he starts again and so i've got to be on guard don't you ever have times of peace yes i have times of peace i have times when there are
[00:57:58] nothing is talking to me from the negative world amen but if i hear one peep from that world i'm going back into action it is written i don't have to yell sorry for the lady that might be watching
[00:58:14] but i can be quiet i can say it is written in fact sometimes that has more authority satan it is written you need to get this into your heart what is written and who you are what your
[00:58:28] authority is our authority flows from our identity how many of you are a new creation how many of you are created in righteousness how many of you are the righteousness of god in christ seated with him in heavenly places and you are a temple of the holy spirit you need to declare that
[00:58:45] a few times until you believe that most people don't talk because they don't believe who they are because they're dealing with guilt and condemnation and if you only knew and all this god already knew he already gifted you the gift of righteousness so just go ahead and take it
[00:59:03] and begin to declare these things i am the righteousness of god in christ if that makes you uncomfortable say it 500 more times until it finally sinks in your your declaration your confession of these things doesn't move god it moves you into the presence of god and out of
[00:59:21] the presence of darkness it's not god that needs moving it's us that needs moving but it's speaking that's going to get the job done luke 10 19 luke 10 19 says behold i give you authority to trample
[00:59:36] on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing shall by any means hurt you nothing nothing is that the word of god is it written can you declare it it is written nothing
[00:59:49] shall by any means hurt me sickness symptoms it is written nothing shall by any means hurt me cancer nothing shall by any means hurt me i am trampling this was delegated authority it now lives in us it's not just delegated to like it was to the disciples it's even enhanced it's in us
[01:00:10] nothing shall by any means hurt me i will trample on every cancer cell i will trample on every other thing going on i will in the name of jesus it is written get us worked up as you feel comfortable
[01:00:22] getting worked up but don't just sit there and think about it that doesn't get the job done that's not how god created anything no he spoke he spoke jesus didn't say oh satan it is written
[01:00:43] resist the devil i know i i have been through this where i i realize you say okay i can do that for a day or two and then on day three i kind of forget and day four it's over not anymore not anymore
[01:01:00] if i get a little kooky i don't care i'm gonna keep i believe in the word of god i believe in the power of god's word amen enforce your healing who's in charge of your body you are the devil
[01:01:15] you are the doctor i have a different message but where i teach a doctor can be your servant but he cannot be your lord jesus is lord and you're going to have to take authority over your body
[01:01:33] doctors they're working they know what they're doing what they know to do and their limited thing but man jesus is lord and you've got the word of god and you've got the ability to speak the
[01:01:43] word of god to resist sickness to resist the devil ephesians 6 17 says take the sword of the spirit the word of god all the other armor armor is defensive but that one is offensive the sword
[01:01:59] of the spirit which is the word of god you have the shield of faith to quench all the fiery darts and if you look up and study the fiery darts it's words that are spoken against you whether they be
[01:02:09] words of people or words of the enemy or whatever that's defensive but you have the sword of the spirit which is the word of god it is written it is written i'm not standing for this i have one
[01:02:25] person write me a message when i was dealing with my my long battle barry you just need to get up and open the door and tell the devil to get out i thought it was kind of funny at the time but they
[01:02:35] were right i need to i need to get proactive even when you're bedridden you can get proactive i was doing other things from the bed i was using my ipad to write messages and pray for people
[01:02:47] they didn't know what i was going through and they say barry would you pray for me yeah i was doing what i knew to do doing what i could do i was reading i was studying i was doing all
[01:02:55] that good stuff and it blessed my heart but i was too quiet i was too quiet i didn't get angry enough i didn't i said that's it i'm done i'm sick and tired of being sick and tired i've done this
[01:03:09] but i wasn't doing it enough at that that for that one year and it's just a matter of you deciding how much are you going to put up with i don't go to people will you pray for me if i ever say that
[01:03:21] to you slap me don't go up to people and say will you pray for me because i know what's going to happen you're going to start telling them your alphabet of issues i've got and then they start
[01:03:32] naming all these letters of stuff and they think i know what this is i have no clue what this is all right i don't need to know that you pray for you is anyone afflicted let him pray
[01:03:43] doesn't say let him come and i'm not against the prayer thing but if you come up here today for prayer for somebody you come with something that is written and bring come with ready to agree
[01:03:55] prayer ministers you don't don't pray for anybody doesn't come with the verse and say it is written let's agree let's change the dynamic here we have this passive thing that we've done for years about
[01:04:09] will you pray for me? Will you pray for me? Will you pray for me? I've got 50 people praying for me. None of them have faith, but okay. Okay. Enough of this stuff. It's time to take our lives back
[01:04:23] from the darkness, but we've got to get stirred up. We've got to get stirred up. Mark 11, 22 and 23.
[01:04:31] So Jesus answered and said to him, have faith in God. I think the more literal would be have God's faith i like that better because what it goes on to describe isn't human faith it's god's faith
[01:04:40] whoever says to this mountain be removed and be cast into the sea and does not doubt in his heart those are the qualifications right there whoever doesn't doubt and whoever says that's it and whoever can be you and should be whoever says to this sickness this cancer this diabetes this
[01:04:58] whatever be cat be removed and cast into the sea and does not doubt on his heart but believes that those things that he says will be done he will have whatever he says how often well if after
[01:05:10] you say that more symptoms start yelling at you and more fear comes against you then do it again and after you do it again if more fear and symptoms come talking to you do it again and do
[01:05:21] it again and do it again until you finally are convinced we're not convincing god it's convincing you that this thing is done you have the authority jesus didn't say don't try this at home this is
[01:05:39] just for me i'm the son of god no whoever whoever says to the mountain praise god am i talking too loud i'm sorry jesus spoke jesus healed the sick with his word jesus cast out demons with his word
[01:06:02] jesus stilled the storm with his word jesus raised the dead with his word jesus rebuked the devil with his word and why are we so quiet words are how things get done words are how we have dominion
[01:06:15] over the earth how you have dominion over your circumstances how you have dominion over your physical body words carry the very spirit carry the very life of god the word of god that's why we use the word of god because it's god carrying the very nature his very nature into whatever is
[01:06:33] ailing you i speak to every cell of my body that the spirit of god is quickening my mortal body it doesn't mean my dead body it means this one it's mortal but it's being quickened by the holy
[01:06:45] spirit every cell of my body it is written my my every cell of my body is being is pulsating with the presence of the spirit of god it's being restored if need be it's being recreated i speak
[01:06:57] to every part of my body i'm doing this all the time now because i'm just not going to become an old decrepit old man and just wither away i refuse i refuse but i've got to speak i can make up my
[01:07:13] mind but then i've got to do it okay and you have to do it as well amen hebrews 3 1 hebrews 3 1 therefore holy brethren partakers of a heavenly calling consider the apostle and high priest of
[01:07:28] our confession christ jesus did you know that he is the priest of what comes out of your mouth and most of us don't give him much to work with he can't be a priest if you're complaining you're
[01:07:43] moaning you're groaning you're talking about how bad it is giving the alphabet of your diseases to everybody he can't be the priest of that he's the priest of a positive confession he's the priest of his word coming out of your mouth he oversees his word he watches over his word to
[01:08:00] perform it not your word meaning not your carnal word of doubt and unbelief but your words of faith that are birthed out of the holy spirit living in you the fire of god inside of you you've had
[01:08:11] enough of this and you begin to declare it is written by his stripes i am healed now he's the priest of that he's ministering to that his word has health to my flesh he's ministering to that
[01:08:26] he sent his word and healed me and delivered me from my destructions he's ministering to that anything that's his word that's what he's the priest of that confession but there's another priest for the other stuff we say and when we say the the dumb stuff oh what was me this is never
[01:08:46] going to get better this genetic i've had it all my life blah blah blah there's somebody else working on that i don't think you want that in your life does this work for everything absolutely
[01:08:59] because it created everything.
[01:09:02] Sin messed stuff up, but sin got nailed to the cross.
[01:09:07] We're not dealing with something where we're in a struggle, the only struggle is up here and in here.
[01:09:12] We're not struggling with the devil, we're just resisting him and he will flee.
[01:09:16] But you gotta say something.
[01:09:18] And if a doubt comes to your mind, well, but I know I said that, but I still feel, forget that, say it again, say it again.
[01:09:29] as many times until you finally get breakthrough and you realize, okay, this is a done deal.
[01:09:35] But that doesn't mean you might not wanna keep saying it.
[01:09:38] Just to remind your spirit you're in the place of victory.
[01:09:42] Remind yourself and keep taking ground, keep fighting.
[01:09:48] Praise God, he's the high priest of our confession.
[01:09:51] What is our confession?
[01:09:52] Romans 10.10.
[01:09:55] Romans 10.10 says, "'For with the heart one believes unto righteousness.'" So you can get that far with your heart.
[01:10:02] You can believe unto righteousness, but with the mouth, confession is made unto salvation.
[01:10:11] In the Greek, that word is soteria, but the verse before the salvation word is sozo.
[01:10:16] They're used interchangeably and they cover the full spectrum of your need.
[01:10:20] Salvation isn't just, excuse me, forgiveness.
[01:10:22] Salvation is every form of redemption, spirit, soul, and body, healing, protection, provision for everything and how do you get there you can get to righteousness by just believing but you can't get to salvation without talking confession is made unto unto
[01:10:44] if something is unto then it's over there and I have to get unto it how do I get there confession is made unto is this making sense is that what I declare from my heart of faith
[01:11:00] by his stripes i was healed is taking me unto that healing that god supplies all my needs according to his riches in christ jesus it is written that is taking me unto that reality some of us are
[01:11:16] farther from some things than other but what the way you get unto it is by confessing the word of god by declaring the word of god he's the high priest of your confession amen there's a lot of
[01:11:27] people that believe under righteousness but they're just being beaten here hither and thither and to and fro by the devil and they don't know why god won't bless them it's because nothing's coming out of their mouth to get them unto the blessing we're gonna have to get more active
[01:11:42] and if i'm not talking to anybody i'm talking to me all right so that's good enough we've got to get proactive in declaring the word of god to declare the word of god you got to know the word
[01:11:54] of god we've got to be so convinced of the power of god's word that this isn't just a book with a dead god as i talked about at the beginning i feel sorry for some people that we got a book but no
[01:12:12] god behind it well my god lives in it on it through it and in me and when that word is in my heart and in my mouth it carries the same authority that it does when god spoke it do you believe that see it's
[01:12:27] to get people to believe this stuff do you believe the word in your mouth has the same authority as the word in god's mouth you got to get to that place i believe therefore i speak i believe
[01:12:44] therefore i speak i believe therefore i speak it is written i believe therefore i speak and then i just start adding on to it all the different verses and all the different declarations about the word of god the love of god the blessings of god the favor of god the
[01:12:59] healing power of god and just keep going and if you don't know them by memory write them down copy and paste whatever to get a list of stuff and then just carry it around with you and declare declare
[01:13:11] declare because what you're doing is not only renewing your mind you're renewing your whole being you're getting your whole inner man in tune with god and you're keeping the enemy at bay because if you're talking he can't it's when you shut up that he come might come back and that's
[01:13:31] where you got to crank it up again no i'm not listening to that symptom i'm not listening to that pain i'm not listening to that doctor's report i'm not listening to this to that the
[01:13:40] other whatever's coming against you by his stripes i am healed his word has delivered me healed me delivered me from all of my destructions how long do i have to say it please don't ask me that again
[01:13:57] okay until it's over until you're convinced until you know that the symptoms will leave the symptoms will finally realize you mean business and they have to go if you don't believe they have to go then you've already lost the battle you've got to believe things have got to bow
[01:14:17] bow the knee to the name of jesus and the word of god anything everything has to bow the knee to the faith that's in your heart but you've got to have the faith in your heart
[01:14:29] that you know that you know that you know amen psalm 107 verse 2. we doing okay psalm 107 verse to let the redeemed of the lord say so whom he has redeemed from the hand of the enemy
[01:14:46] say so how many redeemed are in the room let's say it i am redeemed i am redeemed from the curse of sickness well that was weak i'm serious about this i am redeemed from the curse of sickness
[01:15:06] no sickness can dwell in my body praise god by his stripes i was healed i'll just do it in here and then go home and forget that's the tendency boy that was a good message and by friday nothing
[01:15:28] no this has got to be your life your routine you got to be speaking all the time if you're in a public place and a doubt comes against you then you can whisper it out loud i walk through the
[01:15:41] halls by his stripes i am healed by his stripes i am healed i'm still talking all right it's just it's got to become a lifestyle where you are exercising dominion over your health over your
[01:15:56] life over your situations we have been given dominion in this earth we are called romans 5 17 to reign in life you can't do that without words you can be a general in the army but
[01:16:10] if you never speak the soldiers never know what to do you've got to say something we've got angels waiting to minister what are they waiting on something to come out of your mouth that's worthwhile our high priest is waiting for something to come out that he can agree with
[01:16:32] let the redeemed of the lord say so joshua 1 8 says this book of the law shall not depart from your mouth why does he say mouth why does he say this book of the law shall not depart from your
[01:16:42] mind he says mouth this seems to be important god knew what it was going to take to get the the children of israel into the promised land and for them to have victory he knew what it was going to
[01:16:57] take they can't just be thinking about it well god loves me it'll work out whatever will be will be no you're already you've already lost this word of in our case this word of the new covenant of
[01:17:09] promises of grace of love of power of authority shall not depart from your mouth praise god we could move into the whole subject i'm not going to do that now if praise and thanksgiving is
[01:17:22] another way to fill your mouth praise and thanksgiving psalm 22 3 says he is enthroned on the praises of his people of israel what that means is his government resides in your praise his will is released through your praise think about that a second that the things you want
[01:17:44] to happen the government of god he is enthroned in your praise and if there is no praise he's not there in the sense that i'm talking the practical of him getting his will done in you
[01:17:57] and through you there's got to be a life of praise and thanksgiving that's another way to fill your mouth hebrews 10 23 let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering which means what
[01:18:12] it means there's going to be resistance to this the enemy wants you to waver wants you to give up wants you to say well i tried that for two days two days no this is a lifestyle
[01:18:26] let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering for he who promised is faithful you got to hold fast if we're being told to hold fast it means there's going to be something trying
[01:18:37] to come against us from holding on but you've got to say no it is written it is written it is written submit to god resist the devil he will flee what if he comes back do it again but he
[01:18:51] keeps coming back keep doing it establish who's in charge you've got all the authority you're seated with him in heavenly places the devil's nothing unless you're afraid of him and thinking something amen is anybody getting stirred up when you speak you move from passivity to authority
[01:19:15] you become proactive when you speak when you speak the word the light of the word scatters the darkness speaking fights passivity i have to do this because i like i said i can get quiet
[01:19:30] but then i if i start getting doubts or i start getting what about this pain or this thing no okay time to speak i'm not going to entertain that stuff anymore and if my silence is inviting that
[01:19:43] kind of thing no then i'm not going to be silent and i'll dance around the room as long as i have to praise god maybe not dance but i will move okay silence is spiritual permission for the enemy to
[01:19:59] move in he god is enthroned on your praises if there's no praises but a lot of complaining who just moved in all right stop the complaining stop sharing stop making sure everybody knows what's wrong with you boy that bothers me i've had people come and show me their pictures of
[01:20:21] their surgeries no get thee behind me i don't want to see that that's not faith you're just wanting sympathy this isn't a sympathy meeting this is a healing meeting amen you've got to come with something that is written what's written what's in your heart what are you declaring then
[01:20:43] come up front until you've got something stay in your seat amen resist the devil resistance is spoken the spirit world responds to the spoken word not to the thinking word we've got to declare we've got to speak faith speaks it awakens your identity in christ you remember who you are you
[01:21:08] remember that you've been put on this earth to have dominion to reign and you can't do it without words and you can't do it if you don't believe who you are in christ and if you're not sure and if
[01:21:19] you're guilty and if i i don't think i'm worthy no you're not okay let's get over that and move on to the gift of righteousness now you are and now you can speak praise god amen i'm getting some
