00:00:01.140 --> 00:00:03.840
<v ->This program is made
possible by the giving</v>

2
00:00:03.840 --> 00:00:07.860
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.

3
00:00:07.860 --> 00:00:11.130
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit

4
00:00:11.130 --> 00:00:14.700
and your mind, where the
word is the anchor in

5
00:00:14.700 --> 00:00:16.650
uncertain times

6
00:00:16.650 --> 00:00:19.950
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.

7
00:00:19.950 --> 00:00:21.390
We keep it simple,

8
00:00:21.390 --> 00:00:25.950
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,

9
00:00:26.820 --> 00:00:28.470
a love that emboldens,

10
00:00:29.850 --> 00:00:32.010
and a mission that touches the world.

11
00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:35.880
Let's join Rick Renner.

12
00:00:38.460 --> 00:00:39.720
<v ->Welcome to today's program.</v>

13
00:00:39.720 --> 00:00:42.240
My name is Rick Renner

14
00:00:42.240 --> 00:00:44.160
and my friend, I've been
sitting in this chair

15
00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:46.080
waiting for you.

16
00:00:46.080 --> 00:00:49.560
And today it's not just me,
we have a treat for you.

17
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:53.377
Denise is here, and not just Denise, but Nancy Dufresne

18
00:00:54.360 --> 00:00:56.010
<v ->Brother Rick, thank you for having me.</v>

19
00:00:56.010 --> 00:00:57.360
<v ->We are so excited that you're</v>

20
00:00:57.360 --> 00:00:58.530
<v ->Here. I'm thrilled.</v>

21
00:00:58.530 --> 00:01:01.080
<v ->You know, you came a little
ways to be on our program.</v>

22
00:01:01.080 --> 00:01:03.720
<v ->I did all the way from
Southern California,</v>

23
00:01:03.720 --> 00:01:05.820
<v ->And the reason you're here is why,</v>

24
00:01:05.820 --> 00:01:07.950
<v ->Because we're holding meetings in your,</v>

25
00:01:07.950 --> 00:01:09.660
in your wonderful church.

26
00:01:09.660 --> 00:01:10.920
<v ->We are.</v>
<v ->Yeah.</v>

27
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:14.490
<v ->And I wanna tell you,
our place is packed.</v>

28
00:01:14.490 --> 00:01:16.440
People are coming from everywhere

29
00:01:16.440 --> 00:01:19.320
because we've been broadcasting Nancy

30
00:01:19.320 --> 00:01:21.240
and Russia for quite a while,

31
00:01:21.240 --> 00:01:23.430
and she has become pretty popular

32
00:01:23.430 --> 00:01:26.100
and we're very excited that
she is in our Moscow church.

33
00:01:26.100 --> 00:01:29.790
And we are absolutely thrilled
that you're here with us.

34
00:01:29.790 --> 00:01:31.985
And I wanna tell you that
Denise and I love you.

35
00:01:31.985 --> 00:01:32.985
<v ->Thank You.</v>

36
00:01:32.985 --> 00:01:33.818
<v ->Our sons love you.</v>

37
00:01:33.818 --> 00:01:36.630
Our daughters in laws
are in love with you.

38
00:01:36.630 --> 00:01:38.935
They watch you, they're enamored with you.

39
00:01:38.935 --> 00:01:40.560
<v ->Well, I so appreciate it</v>

40
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:44.130
and I appreciate that your sons don't get tired of my voice

41
00:01:44.130 --> 00:01:45.990
that comes into their household since

42
00:01:45.990 --> 00:01:47.040
they listen to me. Thank

43
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:48.040
<v ->You.</v>

44
00:01:48.040 --> 00:01:48.873
Well, they truly love you and you're

45
00:01:48.873 --> 00:01:49.505
ministering to our family.

46
00:01:49.505 --> 00:01:50.580
<v ->Thank you. Thank</v>
<v ->You.</v>

47
00:01:50.580 --> 00:01:52.830
And one thing I really love
about your ministry is it's

48
00:01:52.830 --> 00:01:54.630
just so practical.

49
00:01:54.630 --> 00:01:56.250
And Nancy, we watch your program.

50
00:01:56.250 --> 00:01:59.220
When you look into that camera,
you have such an ability

51
00:01:59.220 --> 00:02:01.560
to connect with people that are watching.

52
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:03.035
But we're just so grateful you're here.

53
00:02:03.035 --> 00:02:04.710
<v ->Well, you know, thank you so much.</v>

54
00:02:04.710 --> 00:02:06.990
And I pastored for 25 years,

55
00:02:06.990 --> 00:02:08.160
and my goal is just

56
00:02:08.160 --> 00:02:12.600
to help people in everyday
life living the victory

57
00:02:12.600 --> 00:02:14.580
that just belongs to us every day.

58
00:02:14.580 --> 00:02:18.030
And that this, the making
that skill simple for them.

59
00:02:18.030 --> 00:02:19.350
<v ->Well, thank you for doing it.</v>

60
00:02:19.350 --> 00:02:21.210
<v ->Well, it's a joy to be here. Thank you.</v>

61
00:02:21.210 --> 00:02:22.740
<v ->Today we're gonna talk about healing.</v>

62
00:02:22.740 --> 00:02:24.330
We're gonna talk about the mind.

63
00:02:24.330 --> 00:02:26.460
Yes, we're gonna talk about
a lot of things this week.

64
00:02:26.460 --> 00:02:29.400
And please don't miss
one episode this week,

65
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.200
but I want you to order the series,

66
00:02:31.200 --> 00:02:33.390
which is called, The Divine Healer.

67
00:02:33.390 --> 00:02:35.640
And look, it's got me, it's got Denise,

68
00:02:35.640 --> 00:02:37.950
and it's got Nancy Dufresne on the cover.

69
00:02:37.950 --> 00:02:40.020
And as always, it comes with a study guide

70
00:02:40.020 --> 00:02:43.620
because we really believe that
when you read the material,

71
00:02:43.620 --> 00:02:47.070
while you're seeing it or hearing it, it really causes the

72
00:02:47.070 --> 00:02:48.840
teaching to get deeper down inside you.

73
00:02:48.840 --> 00:02:50.820
So please order both of these.

74
00:02:50.820 --> 00:02:54.030
And Nancy has a wonderful
book that I read from cover

75
00:02:54.030 --> 00:02:58.050
to cover, and I learned
some amazing new things.

76
00:02:58.050 --> 00:03:00.790
<v ->Thank you. - In fact, I was
like, why have I never seen</v>

77
00:03:00.790 --> 00:03:02.560
that in my life?

78
00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:04.240
But I'm gonna tell you,
friends, I you need

79
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:05.980
to have a copy of this book.

80
00:03:05.980 --> 00:03:09.730
And it's called, The Healer
Divine. It is so easy to read.

81
00:03:09.730 --> 00:03:11.800
I read it in two settings,

82
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:13.810
and you can read it real quick too.

83
00:03:13.810 --> 00:03:16.780
But this book will make a
difference in your life.

84
00:03:16.780 --> 00:03:20.230
But you can order all these
things by going online

85
00:03:20.230 --> 00:03:21.970
or by just giving us a call right now.

86
00:03:21.970 --> 00:03:23.920
And the number is on the screen.

87
00:03:23.920 --> 00:03:27.040
And please remember that
when you reach out to us,

88
00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:31.030
we believe in prayer, and we
are waiting to pray for you.

89
00:03:31.030 --> 00:03:34.000
In Jeremiah 33:3 says, call into me,

90
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.190
I will hear you, I will answer you,

91
00:03:36.190 --> 00:03:37.570
and I will show you great

92
00:03:37.570 --> 00:03:41.380
and mighty things. That you can pray by yourself,

93
00:03:41.380 --> 00:03:44.320
but sometimes it helps to
have somebody pray with you.

94
00:03:44.320 --> 00:03:47.200
And here we are, we're
waiting to pray for you.

95
00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:50.110
So just call the number on the
screen or send us an email.

96
00:03:50.110 --> 00:03:53.920
And when we hear what your
need is, we're going to pray.

97
00:03:53.920 --> 00:03:57.400
And according to Jeremiah 33:3, God is going to hear us.

98
00:03:57.400 --> 00:03:59.080
God's gonna answer us,

99
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:03.940
and God is gonna do exactly
what needs to be done,

100
00:04:03.940 --> 00:04:06.910
which sometimes is a little
different than what we prayed.

101
00:04:06.910 --> 00:04:09.460
But God knows exactly
what needs to happen.

102
00:04:09.460 --> 00:04:10.990
And God's gonna move in your life

103
00:04:10.990 --> 00:04:14.020
and he's gonna do something spectacular.

104
00:04:14.020 --> 00:04:15.760
We're gonna get right
into the teaching reach

105
00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:18.490
for your Bible, get something
to write with, get ready

106
00:04:18.490 --> 00:04:21.520
to take notes, because
today Nancy's gonna take us

107
00:04:21.520 --> 00:04:24.520
to some wonderful places.
So let's get started.

108
00:04:24.520 --> 00:04:25.520
<v ->Good.</v>
<v ->Let's go.</v>

109
00:04:25.520 --> 00:04:27.100
<v ->Good. Well, you know,</v>

110
00:04:27.100 --> 00:04:29.350
we were talking about just
at dinner the other day,

111
00:04:29.350 --> 00:04:33.910
and we were talking about
the connection of the mind

112
00:04:33.910 --> 00:04:35.800
with the health of the body.

113
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:39.940
And in 3 John 1:2, of course,

114
00:04:41.080 --> 00:04:44.140
John was writing and moved
upon by the Holy Ghost.

115
00:04:44.140 --> 00:04:48.610
Beloved, I wish above all things thou mayest prosper

116
00:04:48.610 --> 00:04:52.150
and being health, even as our
so prosperous. Denise, listen

117
00:04:52.150 --> 00:04:55.300
to this; the prosperity

118
00:04:55.300 --> 00:04:57.370
and the health is connected to the soul.

119
00:04:57.370 --> 00:04:59.470
It's connected to how we think.

120
00:04:59.470 --> 00:05:01.930
So it does matter the thought life.

121
00:05:01.930 --> 00:05:06.100
And when it says, beloved,
I wish above all things,

122
00:05:06.100 --> 00:05:07.960
as some translations said, I pray

123
00:05:07.960 --> 00:05:11.050
above all things I
desire above all things.

124
00:05:11.050 --> 00:05:12.640
And you think about this

125
00:05:12.640 --> 00:05:15.640
because we know this, the
writers of the old, of the Old

126
00:05:15.640 --> 00:05:18.460
Testament, new Testament, they
wrote as they were moved upon

127
00:05:18.460 --> 00:05:19.900
by the Holy Ghost.

128
00:05:19.900 --> 00:05:21.430
So when John is saying -

129
00:05:21.430 --> 00:05:24.670
I wish - he's really expressing the holy,

130
00:05:24.670 --> 00:05:27.285
the holy Spirit's expressing his desire,

131
00:05:27.285 --> 00:05:29.860
<v ->His desire, this</v>
<v ->Didn't originate with John.</v>

132
00:05:29.860 --> 00:05:31.720
The desire for the prosperity

133
00:05:31.720 --> 00:05:34.360
and the health of people,
it originated with God.

134
00:05:34.360 --> 00:05:36.160
You know, people wanna prosper. Yeah.

135
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:38.350
But they weren't the first
ones to long for that.

136
00:05:38.350 --> 00:05:40.300
No God provided that.

137
00:05:40.300 --> 00:05:43.720
But notice it says, even as our soul prospers.

138
00:05:43.720 --> 00:05:47.770
So it's our health, our
prosperity is attached to

139
00:05:47.770 --> 00:05:49.630
what happens in the thought life.

140
00:05:49.630 --> 00:05:51.220
And it's key.

141
00:05:51.220 --> 00:05:53.800
<v ->You know, Nancy, when
you said that, I thought,</v>

142
00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:57.320
when we know that it's something God wants us to have,

143
00:05:57.320 --> 00:05:59.840
it gives you more confidence to go after it.

144
00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:03.230
<v ->Absolutely - It's not your idea, it's God's idea. It was,</v>

145
00:06:03.230 --> 00:06:05.515
<v ->It's his longing for us to prosper.</v>

146
00:06:05.515 --> 00:06:06.800
<v ->I love that. I love that.</v>
<v ->Yeah. Because</v>

147
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:09.020
so many times when we'd
think about prosperity,

148
00:06:09.020 --> 00:06:10.970
we would think, well, I just wanna prosper

149
00:06:10.970 --> 00:06:12.500
because I want my bills paid.

150
00:06:12.500 --> 00:06:16.580
No, he, it, the desire for
our prosperity began with him.

151
00:06:16.580 --> 00:06:21.140
And so when John said,
he showed it to us, that

152
00:06:21.140 --> 00:06:25.070
if I could read it this
way, I, I long that desire

153
00:06:25.070 --> 00:06:27.920
that you may prosper
and be in health even as

154
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:30.380
or to the measure that your soul prospers.

155
00:06:30.380 --> 00:06:34.820
So when we, when we, we
are believing for healing,

156
00:06:34.820 --> 00:06:36.260
when we're believing prosper

157
00:06:36.260 --> 00:06:38.420
for prosperity, what has to happen?

158
00:06:38.420 --> 00:06:41.180
Something has to be adjusted
in the thought life.

159
00:06:41.180 --> 00:06:45.590
The way we think: wrong thinking holds us back from greater

160
00:06:45.590 --> 00:06:47.990
flows of receiving what God has for us.

161
00:06:47.990 --> 00:06:50.930
You know, what we talk about in connection

162
00:06:50.930 --> 00:06:52.190
with the mind is something

163
00:06:52.190 --> 00:06:55.370
that Paul said in Romans 12:2.

164
00:06:55.370 --> 00:06:58.856
He talked about - be not conformed to this world. Right.

165
00:06:58.856 --> 00:07:02.540
But be transformed by
the renewing of the mind.

166
00:07:02.540 --> 00:07:05.930
Now when we, when we received
Christ, we were born again.

167
00:07:05.930 --> 00:07:08.990
But when we, we renew our
minds with the word of God,

168
00:07:08.990 --> 00:07:10.490
lives are transformed.

169
00:07:10.490 --> 00:07:11.930
<v ->Now, Nancy, you do, you grew up in a</v>

170
00:07:11.930 --> 00:07:12.985
denominational church,

171
00:07:12.985 --> 00:07:13.818
<v ->Right? I did.</v>

172
00:07:13.818 --> 00:07:15.350
<v ->I think the same church I grew up in.</v>

173
00:07:15.350 --> 00:07:18.200
<v ->Yes. - And in the church that we grew up in,</v>

174
00:07:18.200 --> 00:07:20.750
we never heard anything
about God wanting us

175
00:07:20.750 --> 00:07:22.340
to prosper or to be in health.

176
00:07:22.340 --> 00:07:24.590
<v ->No, no.</v>
<v ->We knew about eternity.</v>

177
00:07:24.590 --> 00:07:27.350
And boy, we were really good
on making sure we were saved.

178
00:07:27.350 --> 00:07:29.270
<v ->Okay.</v>
<v ->We we nailed that down.</v>

179
00:07:29.270 --> 00:07:32.420
<v ->Yes. - But the, this, the
very notion that God wanted us</v>

180
00:07:32.420 --> 00:07:35.180
to feel good or that God
wanted us to be well,

181
00:07:35.180 --> 00:07:37.130
that never entered into our mind.

182
00:07:37.130 --> 00:07:39.860
<v ->We never heard it.</v>
<v ->And we grew up in Tulsa.</v>

183
00:07:39.860 --> 00:07:43.010
And Tulsa was the home
of Oral Roberts ministry.

184
00:07:43.010 --> 00:07:45.320
<v ->Yes. - So our pastor actually told Oral</v>

185
00:07:45.320 --> 00:07:46.700
Roberts jokes from the pulpit.

186
00:07:46.700 --> 00:07:48.710
And we just thought, people
who believed in healing were

187
00:07:48.710 --> 00:07:51.680
so silly and so ridiculous.

188
00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:54.620
But here it is. And you
know, this is the verse

189
00:07:54.620 --> 00:07:55.820
that God gave Oral Roberts

190
00:07:55.820 --> 00:07:57.650
that really revolutionized his life.

191
00:07:57.650 --> 00:07:59.570
<v ->Yes. - He said, Evelyn, look at this.</v>

192
00:07:59.570 --> 00:08:03.440
<v ->Yes. - God wants us to be in health even as</v>

193
00:08:03.440 --> 00:08:05.170
our soul prospers. Prospers.

194
00:08:05.170 --> 00:08:07.250
<v ->Yeah. - And that really is a major key.</v>

195
00:08:07.250 --> 00:08:08.450
<v ->It is a major key.</v>

196
00:08:08.450 --> 00:08:11.600
And if something is
lacking in our prosperity,

197
00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:14.390
if something is lacking
in our health, it's

198
00:08:14.390 --> 00:08:16.640
because it's lacking in our thought life.

199
00:08:16.640 --> 00:08:19.070
It's not because it's
lacking in our covenant.

200
00:08:19.070 --> 00:08:20.990
It's part of our inheritance.

201
00:08:20.990 --> 00:08:25.730
And so to, to move into the fullness of what God has for us,

202
00:08:25.730 --> 00:08:28.220
something has to be adjusted
in the thought life.

203
00:08:28.220 --> 00:08:29.810
We have to come up in our thinking.

204
00:08:29.810 --> 00:08:34.760
And as I was quoting Romans 12:2, Paul said,

205
00:08:34.760 --> 00:08:36.020
be not conformed to this world,

206
00:08:36.020 --> 00:08:38.420
but be transformed by
the renewing of the mind.

207
00:08:38.420 --> 00:08:39.650
What's the renewing of the mind?

208
00:08:39.650 --> 00:08:41.300
It's taking on God's way of thinking.

209
00:08:42.140 --> 00:08:46.430
And until that divine work
finds its place in our life,

210
00:08:46.430 --> 00:08:48.770
we can struggle unnecessarily

211
00:08:48.770 --> 00:08:51.020
with prosperity and with health.

212
00:08:51.020 --> 00:08:54.140
You know, Paul called it
the renewing of the mind.

213
00:08:54.140 --> 00:08:58.770
David in Psalm 23 said, he restores my soul.

214
00:08:58.770 --> 00:09:00.360
Well, how does God restore our soul?

215
00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:02.400
Well, we don't go to sleep
one night. He works on it.

216
00:09:02.400 --> 00:09:04.080
And then we wake up with a new soul.

217
00:09:04.080 --> 00:09:05.160
He restores our soul

218
00:09:05.160 --> 00:09:07.980
as we feed on his word and make it ours.

219
00:09:07.980 --> 00:09:10.170
<v ->You know, I, I know one
man years ago, he said,</v>

220
00:09:10.170 --> 00:09:11.460
I really wanna renew my mind.

221
00:09:11.460 --> 00:09:14.040
So he began to sleep on his Bible.

222
00:09:14.040 --> 00:09:16.020
And he said, maybe the
Bible will just go into

223
00:09:16.020 --> 00:09:17.730
my brain. That's not the

224
00:09:17.730 --> 00:09:18.563
<v ->Way it works. That's
not the way it happens.</v>

225
00:09:18.563 --> 00:09:19.890
<v ->So, so how do you do in Nancy?</v>

226
00:09:19.890 --> 00:09:22.920
<v ->Well, Joshua 1:8; This book</v>

227
00:09:22.920 --> 00:09:25.200
of the law shall not depart out of your mouth,

228
00:09:25.200 --> 00:09:27.660
but you shall meditate in it day

229
00:09:27.660 --> 00:09:31.920
and night so that you
may be careful to observe

230
00:09:31.920 --> 00:09:34.500
and to do according to all
that's written therein.

231
00:09:34.500 --> 00:09:38.280
Meaning this: his word has to not just get in your mind,

232
00:09:38.280 --> 00:09:39.930
it has to get in your spirit.

233
00:09:39.930 --> 00:09:42.270
The word, it's food for your faith.

234
00:09:42.270 --> 00:09:46.230
Your spirit needs the word,
but your mind needs the word.

235
00:09:46.230 --> 00:09:50.850
And the word is this - God offering us his thoughts.

236
00:09:50.850 --> 00:09:53.070
<v ->Yes. - And we would be a fool to say - No,</v>

237
00:09:53.070 --> 00:09:54.300
I think I'll stick with mine.

238
00:09:54.300 --> 00:09:56.040
Yes. No, we take his thoughts.

239
00:09:56.040 --> 00:09:58.710
And that's what Paul says
is the renewing of the mind.

240
00:09:58.710 --> 00:10:01.320
David called it the restoring of the soul.

241
00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:04.140
John called it the prospering of the soul.

242
00:10:04.140 --> 00:10:05.730
James called it this way.

243
00:10:05.730 --> 00:10:10.530
He said; received with meekness the engrafted word,

244
00:10:10.530 --> 00:10:12.075
which is able to save

245
00:10:12.075 --> 00:10:13.650
<v ->Your soul - save your souls.</v>

246
00:10:13.650 --> 00:10:15.960
<v ->So he was talking to Christians who were born again,</v>

247
00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:17.400
but he said, your soul's unsaved.

248
00:10:17.400 --> 00:10:20.580
You're thinking like a mere common man.

249
00:10:20.580 --> 00:10:25.440
So the way you renew the mind is you feed

250
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:27.990
on that word, but you,
it's not enough to see it,

251
00:10:27.990 --> 00:10:29.790
it's not enough to say it.

252
00:10:29.790 --> 00:10:31.860
You've got to get it in your spirit to

253
00:10:31.860 --> 00:10:35.160
where it starts dictating every, every,

254
00:10:35.160 --> 00:10:36.755
every way you live. And

255
00:10:36.755 --> 00:10:37.860
<v ->So, so how do you get it?</v>

256
00:10:37.860 --> 00:10:40.140
<v ->Meditation. - Okay, tell me what that means.</v>

257
00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:43.890
<v ->People know what meditation
is in the negative direction.</v>

258
00:10:43.890 --> 00:10:46.170
It's called worry. And

259
00:10:46.170 --> 00:10:49.020
so we meditate on the word
in the positive direction.

260
00:10:49.020 --> 00:10:51.240
So you take a thought and you, you,

261
00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:52.950
you think deeply into it.

262
00:10:52.950 --> 00:10:55.200
You if - let me give you an example.

263
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:56.340
<v ->Can we, can we stop just for a moment?</v>

264
00:10:56.340 --> 00:10:58.170
<v ->Sure.</v>
<v ->You said worry is a negative</v>

265
00:10:58.170 --> 00:10:59.310
example of meditation.

266
00:10:59.310 --> 00:11:00.990
Yes. So when people sit around

267
00:11:00.990 --> 00:11:02.190
and think about what they're worrying

268
00:11:02.190 --> 00:11:03.570
about, that's meditation.

269
00:11:03.570 --> 00:11:06.000
<v ->They're meditating on it
in the negative direction,</v>

270
00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:07.770
driving the wrong thing

271
00:11:07.770 --> 00:11:08.770
<v ->Into their spirit.</v>

272
00:11:08.770 --> 00:11:09.930
So they need to turn that around. And

273
00:11:09.930 --> 00:11:11.010
they need to think about

274
00:11:11.010 --> 00:11:12.360
<v ->In the, in the positive direction -</v>

275
00:11:12.360 --> 00:11:13.680
that is powerful, Nancy.

276
00:11:13.680 --> 00:11:15.690
<v ->So let's, let's Brother Rick,</v>

277
00:11:15.690 --> 00:11:17.010
let's say, think of it this way.

278
00:11:17.010 --> 00:11:18.300
We know the scripture.

279
00:11:18.300 --> 00:11:22.290
Philippians 4:19, My God shall supply all my need.

280
00:11:22.290 --> 00:11:23.730
This is the way I meditate on it.

281
00:11:23.730 --> 00:11:26.160
I'll take, I'll take one word at a time.

282
00:11:26.160 --> 00:11:30.120
My God, it's, thank God he's,
he is, you know Paul's God,

283
00:11:30.120 --> 00:11:31.560
he thank God he was the God

284
00:11:31.560 --> 00:11:33.570
of my spiritual father, Dad Hagin.

285
00:11:33.570 --> 00:11:38.280
But he's my God, my God. Does it not my job, my God.

286
00:11:38.280 --> 00:11:42.090
Not just my pastor's
God, but my God, my God.

287
00:11:42.090 --> 00:11:44.490
Not my job, not my spouse.

288
00:11:44.490 --> 00:11:47.280
My God shall and I take one word at a time

289
00:11:47.280 --> 00:11:48.485
and I just talk to myself.

290
00:11:48.485 --> 00:11:50.370
<v ->You could even meditate
it on that word. Shall</v>

291
00:11:50.370 --> 00:11:51.370
<v ->Yeah.</v>

292
00:11:51.370 --> 00:11:52.500
There's, it's absolute.

293
00:11:52.500 --> 00:11:53.925
<v ->This is what going to do. Yes,</v>

294
00:11:53.925 --> 00:11:54.925
<v ->Absolutely.</v>

295
00:11:54.925 --> 00:11:56.590
It's absolute. Absolutely.
There's no risk in this.

296
00:11:56.590 --> 00:11:58.930
<v ->Wow. - There's no risk. It shall happen.</v>

297
00:11:58.930 --> 00:12:00.790
You know, this morning, Nancy,

298
00:12:00.790 --> 00:12:05.470
I was meditating on Romans 5:5,

299
00:12:05.470 --> 00:12:08.530
that he shed abroad the Holy Ghost, the love of God.

300
00:12:08.530 --> 00:12:10.960
Yes. The Holy Ghost
shed a body in our heart

301
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:13.300
by the Holy Ghost, the love of God.

302
00:12:13.300 --> 00:12:16.210
Yes. And so I'm just sitting
there thinking, okay,

303
00:12:16.210 --> 00:12:20.200
the Holy Ghost all over my heart - Yes

304
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:23.665
<v ->Is the very love of God.</v>

305
00:12:23.665 --> 00:12:26.770
And I started meditating on how powerful,

306
00:12:26.770 --> 00:12:31.770
how much power we have to have the love, absolute God.

307
00:12:31.930 --> 00:12:33.970
<v ->I wanna tell you what I was
meditating on this morning.</v>

308
00:12:33.970 --> 00:12:37.690
Here it is. The Lord is my rock. I just stopped right there.

309
00:12:38.680 --> 00:12:39.680
<v ->Oh yes. The Lord is my rock.</v>

310
00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:42.430
<v ->He's my rock. - You could stop there for a long time.</v>

311
00:12:42.430 --> 00:12:43.780
The Lord is my fortress.

312
00:12:43.780 --> 00:12:46.180
The Lord is my deliver, my God,

313
00:12:46.180 --> 00:12:49.240
my strength in whom I
trust my buckler, the horn

314
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:51.790
of my salvation and my high tower.

315
00:12:51.790 --> 00:12:53.830
I mean, you could just stay on that verse

316
00:12:53.830 --> 00:12:56.410
and meditate on every single part of that

317
00:12:56.410 --> 00:12:58.360
until it just gets down deep inside you.

318
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:02.200
<v ->Well, and meditation,
what it does is it helps you</v>

319
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:03.580
to take ownership.

320
00:13:03.580 --> 00:13:04.990
You know, people will read the Bible

321
00:13:04.990 --> 00:13:07.000
and they say, I know God
said that, but but it,

322
00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:09.070
but it doesn't seem true for me.

323
00:13:09.070 --> 00:13:11.680
How does it become true for you?

324
00:13:11.680 --> 00:13:13.570
You have to build it in you.

325
00:13:13.570 --> 00:13:16.570
And that takes time of
meditating on it. Yes.

326
00:13:16.570 --> 00:13:20.620
And once you own it, you can
spend it. It's so important.

327
00:13:20.620 --> 00:13:24.280
We confess the word, it's so
important we speak the word,

328
00:13:24.280 --> 00:13:26.650
but sometimes people
say, you know, I speak it

329
00:13:26.650 --> 00:13:29.050
and it doesn't come to, it
doesn't seem to work for me.

330
00:13:29.050 --> 00:13:31.240
Well, you can't spend what you don't own.

331
00:13:31.240 --> 00:13:34.420
And meditating is how
you take ownership of it.

332
00:13:34.420 --> 00:13:37.930
You get the word in you and
you get you in that word.

333
00:13:37.930 --> 00:13:41.860
And so when it's built in
you through meditation,

334
00:13:41.860 --> 00:13:45.285
then when you speak it, it's
really a living thing for you.

335
00:13:45.285 --> 00:13:46.845
<v ->You know, in James 1, it says,</v>

336
00:13:46.845 --> 00:13:48.871
Receive with meekness,

337
00:13:48.871 --> 00:13:50.195
<v ->Engrafted,</v>
<v ->Engrafted word.</v>

338
00:13:50.195 --> 00:13:52.105
Well, think about the engrafted word.

339
00:13:52.105 --> 00:13:54.915
It describes something that
is not original to you.

340
00:13:54.915 --> 00:13:57.545
<v ->Good. - It's like a person
that has a kidney transplant.</v>

341
00:13:57.545 --> 00:14:00.025
<v ->Mm. Good. That kidney, you have to have it to live,</v>

342
00:14:00.025 --> 00:14:02.045
but it's really not yours originally.

343
00:14:02.045 --> 00:14:06.365
It's put in you. But for your
body to receive that kidney,

344
00:14:07.225 --> 00:14:08.835
you have to take medication.

345
00:14:08.835 --> 00:14:12.335
<v ->It's a process - Which enables you to receive that kidney</v>

346
00:14:12.335 --> 00:14:14.145
until it becomes a part of you.

347
00:14:14.145 --> 00:14:16.685
<v ->Yes. - And when the Bible
says receive with meekness,</v>

348
00:14:17.620 --> 00:14:21.490
the word meekness describes
a person who chooses

349
00:14:21.490 --> 00:14:24.730
to accept the opinion of
another over his own will.

350
00:14:25.690 --> 00:14:26.830
It's so good. So the only way the word

351
00:14:26.830 --> 00:14:30.490
of God can really become
engrafted in you is if you say

352
00:14:30.490 --> 00:14:31.540
no to your own thoughts

353
00:14:31.540 --> 00:14:35.080
<v ->Yes - and you say, I'm going to think the thoughts of God.</v>

354
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:36.405
I'm going to receive the word of God.

355
00:14:37.690 --> 00:14:39.925
And finally it becomes engrafted. Yes.

356
00:14:39.925 --> 00:14:41.560
And it becomes a part of you.

357
00:14:41.560 --> 00:14:45.070
<v ->And I wanted to say that we
have to agree with the word</v>

358
00:14:45.070 --> 00:14:48.460
of God because a lot of times, you know,

359
00:14:48.460 --> 00:14:50.530
maybe somebody's listening
right now and you think,

360
00:14:50.530 --> 00:14:53.150
but you don't know my situation.

361
00:14:53.150 --> 00:14:55.550
But it doesn't matter about your situation

362
00:14:55.550 --> 00:14:58.730
because the word of God
is not gonna change.

363
00:14:58.730 --> 00:15:00.710
Right. And it carries power.

364
00:15:00.710 --> 00:15:04.550
And so when we agree
to say it's like, like

365
00:15:04.550 --> 00:15:07.640
what you just said, Rick, we receive the

366
00:15:07.640 --> 00:15:08.640
<v ->ingrafted word.</v>

367
00:15:08.640 --> 00:15:10.285
<v ->It wasn't natural</v>
<v ->Us, it kick</v>

368
00:15:10.285 --> 00:15:11.285
<v ->It.</v>

369
00:15:11.285 --> 00:15:12.200
And it's a choice you made. It's a choice.

370
00:15:12.200 --> 00:15:14.240
<v ->That's right.</v>
<v ->It is an absolute choice.</v>

371
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.750
That what God says, he's always right.

372
00:15:17.750 --> 00:15:19.190
That's right. Yeah. And

373
00:15:19.190 --> 00:15:20.360
<v ->You know, at lunch yesterday, you</v>

374
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:22.850
and I were talking about
the power of the will

375
00:15:22.850 --> 00:15:25.280
and that many people are not healed

376
00:15:25.280 --> 00:15:27.500
because they don't discipline their mind

377
00:15:27.500 --> 00:15:28.970
to stick with God's thoughts.

378
00:15:28.970 --> 00:15:31.220
Yeah. It really takes a determination,

379
00:15:31.220 --> 00:15:33.500
I'm going to think the thoughts of God.

380
00:15:33.500 --> 00:15:37.100
I don't care what I feel. I
don't care what others say.

381
00:15:37.100 --> 00:15:38.480
I'm dedicating

382
00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:41.930
and disciplining my mind
to stay in agreement with

383
00:15:41.930 --> 00:15:43.665
what God says.

384
00:15:43.665 --> 00:15:45.890
And that's the process
of causing that word

385
00:15:45.890 --> 00:15:47.270
to become engrafted.

386
00:15:47.270 --> 00:15:51.200
<v ->Well, and the renewed
mind, brother Rick agrees</v>

387
00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:52.400
with the word of God.

388
00:15:52.400 --> 00:15:56.095
But not only that, it agrees
with the faith in our spirit.

389
00:15:56.095 --> 00:15:59.930
<v ->Right. - And if the unrenewed mind is left</v>

390
00:16:01.100 --> 00:16:03.650
in place, Then what happens?

391
00:16:03.650 --> 00:16:06.290
The unrenewed mind argues with the faith

392
00:16:06.290 --> 00:16:07.550
of God that's in your spirit.

393
00:16:07.550 --> 00:16:11.150
And it will not let the
faith in your spirit rise up.

394
00:16:11.150 --> 00:16:15.230
It holds that faith prison
a prisoner, so to speak.

395
00:16:15.230 --> 00:16:19.130
And so the renewed mind agrees with God

396
00:16:19.130 --> 00:16:21.560
and the unrenewed mind argues.

397
00:16:21.560 --> 00:16:25.340
And so you have to by choice, say I choose

398
00:16:25.340 --> 00:16:26.780
to take on God's way of thinking.

399
00:16:26.780 --> 00:16:29.210
And this is something
that's so critical of,

400
00:16:29.210 --> 00:16:30.710
of what John said.

401
00:16:30.710 --> 00:16:33.080
He said, I wish above all things I mayest prosper

402
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:36.140
and be in health, even
as you think like God.

403
00:16:36.140 --> 00:16:39.560
<v ->So a person who's in trouble
has to say, it is the will</v>

404
00:16:39.560 --> 00:16:41.180
of God for me to prosper.

405
00:16:41.180 --> 00:16:43.340
<v ->Yes. - It is the will of
God for me to be in health.</v>

406
00:16:43.340 --> 00:16:45.715
That's not just what I
want. That's what God wants.

407
00:16:45.715 --> 00:16:46.820
<v ->Right. That's what he authored for us.</v>

408
00:16:46.820 --> 00:16:49.220
<v ->And you've got to put
yourself in agreement,</v>

409
00:16:49.220 --> 00:16:50.780
in alignment with that word.

410
00:16:50.780 --> 00:16:53.540
<v ->Well he He wants it for
you and he paid for it.</v>

411
00:16:53.540 --> 00:16:54.800
Well, not on. Yes,

412
00:16:54.800 --> 00:16:55.800
<v ->Absolutely.</v>

413
00:16:55.800 --> 00:16:58.460
Because in Christ we are healed.

414
00:16:58.460 --> 00:17:01.910
<v ->Yes. - And so when we talk about by faith,</v>

415
00:17:01.910 --> 00:17:03.530
even if there's symptoms in the body,

416
00:17:03.530 --> 00:17:07.790
say in Christ there's no pain; in Christ,

417
00:17:07.790 --> 00:17:08.960
there's no symptoms.

418
00:17:08.960 --> 00:17:10.250
And I'm in Him and I,

419
00:17:10.250 --> 00:17:14.510
and I choose to let who
I am in him dominate

420
00:17:14.510 --> 00:17:15.800
what the circumstances

421
00:17:15.800 --> 00:17:18.920
and the symptoms of my
body say; I'm in Christ.

422
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:22.550
I'm not just, I'm not
in sickness. I'm in Him.

423
00:17:22.550 --> 00:17:25.550
And then when you, you talk
about who you are in him,

424
00:17:25.550 --> 00:17:30.020
it starts changing what
the body is in the natural.

425
00:17:30.020 --> 00:17:32.150
And this is taking on the thoughts of God.

426
00:17:32.150 --> 00:17:35.600
And it's part of our inheritance in Christ is a sound mind

427
00:17:35.600 --> 00:17:38.540
also because a troubled mind

428
00:17:39.440 --> 00:17:42.830
will argue with healing,

429
00:17:42.830 --> 00:17:44.720
it will argue with prosperity.

430
00:17:44.720 --> 00:17:46.130
And so we have

431
00:17:46.130 --> 00:17:48.470
to bring our thoughts in
line with the word of God.

432
00:17:48.470 --> 00:17:50.370
And that mean, it means you have

433
00:17:50.370 --> 00:17:52.140
to pay attention to your thought life.

434
00:17:52.140 --> 00:17:54.660
People can't just let
their mind go any direction

435
00:17:54.660 --> 00:17:55.770
without restraint.

436
00:17:55.770 --> 00:17:57.450
<v ->You've got to answer it.</v>
<v ->You've got</v>

437
00:17:57.450 --> 00:18:01.080
to absolutely answer it
with the word of God.

438
00:18:01.080 --> 00:18:05.130
<v ->Absolutely. So many times first -</v>

439
00:18:05.130 --> 00:18:06.810
no 2 Timothy 1:7.

440
00:18:06.810 --> 00:18:11.100
Yes. Yes. And your mind was, God's not given us this. No.

441
00:18:11.100 --> 00:18:14.610
So he hasn't given me this
fear. He doesn't belong to me.

442
00:18:14.610 --> 00:18:18.390
No, no. He's given me a
sound. A sound mind. And

443
00:18:18.390 --> 00:18:21.840
<v ->Can I say this, A sound mind
is part of our inheritance.</v>

444
00:18:21.840 --> 00:18:24.540
Yes, it is. It is absolutely
part of our inheritance.

445
00:18:24.540 --> 00:18:28.770
And the amplified of that
says this, it talks about

446
00:18:28.770 --> 00:18:31.680
a disciplined self-control mind.

447
00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:34.110
That's part of our inheritance.

448
00:18:34.110 --> 00:18:36.810
And you know, we have
the fruits of the spirit

449
00:18:36.810 --> 00:18:39.780
that were imparted to us at the new birth.

450
00:18:39.780 --> 00:18:42.540
One fruit of the spirit is temperance,

451
00:18:42.540 --> 00:18:44.070
which is self-control.

452
00:18:44.070 --> 00:18:46.290
<v ->Yes.</v>
<v ->It's self-discipline.</v>

453
00:18:46.290 --> 00:18:51.210
It's not us trying to in our
flesh have enough discipline

454
00:18:51.210 --> 00:18:53.130
to dominate wrong thinking.

455
00:18:53.130 --> 00:18:57.060
It is us saying wait a minute; I have his discipline in me.

456
00:18:57.060 --> 00:18:58.800
I have his, his self-control.

457
00:18:58.800 --> 00:19:01.440
It's his I'm, I'm spending, it's his.

458
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.360
I'm drawing on this fruit of the spirit.

459
00:19:03.360 --> 00:19:06.600
And with that I can
discipline my thought life

460
00:19:06.600 --> 00:19:09.420
and my thought life won't
run off with my life.

461
00:19:09.420 --> 00:19:12.330
You know the word sound mind in Greek is sophronismos.

462
00:19:12.330 --> 00:19:14.610
The word sozo, which means delivered. Yes. Or

463
00:19:14.610 --> 00:19:15.840
saved - Yes.

464
00:19:15.840 --> 00:19:19.200
<v ->And the word phren is the word for the intelligence.</v>

465
00:19:19.200 --> 00:19:21.570
It really pictures a saved brain.

466
00:19:21.570 --> 00:19:25.230
<v ->Wow. - God has given us brains that are saved</v>

467
00:19:25.230 --> 00:19:27.270
and a saved mind,

468
00:19:27.270 --> 00:19:30.450
a delivered mind is not
supposed to be run around

469
00:19:30.450 --> 00:19:32.850
by emotions or fear.

470
00:19:32.850 --> 00:19:35.910
And we need to lay claim to the fact that

471
00:19:35.910 --> 00:19:38.130
our brains have been delivered

472
00:19:38.130 --> 00:19:41.070
<v ->And they weren't given
to us to lead our life.</v>

473
00:19:41.070 --> 00:19:44.460
<v ->That's correct. - Just to serve our life, not lead.</v>

474
00:19:44.460 --> 00:19:46.710
<v ->It's That's correct.</v>
<v ->Our spirit's to lead.</v>

475
00:19:46.710 --> 00:19:49.950
<v ->I say that we are our
spirit is the main thing.</v>

476
00:19:49.950 --> 00:19:52.560
<v ->Yes. - But many people are
let around by their bodies.</v>

477
00:19:52.560 --> 00:19:54.720
<v ->Absolutely. - By their feelings, by their emotions.</v>

478
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.960
But laying between your body and your spirit is your brain.

479
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.060
<v ->Right.</v>
<v ->And your brain decides which</v>

480
00:20:00.060 --> 00:20:01.350
part of you is gonna rule.

481
00:20:01.350 --> 00:20:04.740
<v ->Absolutely. - And if you can discipline your mind</v>

482
00:20:04.740 --> 00:20:07.440
and pull it into submission, suddenly everything

483
00:20:07.440 --> 00:20:08.730
that's in your spirit's gonna begin

484
00:20:08.730 --> 00:20:10.800
to flow into every part of your life.

485
00:20:10.800 --> 00:20:13.470
But you, you gotta pull your brain under control

486
00:20:13.470 --> 00:20:14.705
<v ->So that it agrees with your spirit</v>

487
00:20:14.705 --> 00:20:16.230
<v ->So that it agrees with your spirit.</v>

488
00:20:16.230 --> 00:20:17.820
<v ->Absolutely.</v>
<v ->That's right.</v>

489
00:20:17.820 --> 00:20:20.040
<v ->Because the the mind is here.</v>

490
00:20:20.040 --> 00:20:21.810
I mean, the body's here, the spirit's here

491
00:20:21.810 --> 00:20:23.160
and the mind is the variable.

492
00:20:23.160 --> 00:20:25.320
<v ->That's exactly right.</v>
<v ->Whichever one it sides with,</v>

493
00:20:25.320 --> 00:20:26.955
that's the feature man that will dominate

494
00:20:26.955 --> 00:20:28.470
<v ->When you understand that</v>
<v ->Yes,</v>

495
00:20:28.470 --> 00:20:30.205
<v ->You have a major key
to victory in your life.</v>

496
00:20:30.205 --> 00:20:31.770
<v ->That's exactly right. That's the truth.</v>

497
00:20:31.770 --> 00:20:34.500
<v ->Nancy, this is so wonderful
and we're out of time.</v>

498
00:20:34.500 --> 00:20:36.540
Oh, goes quick. Will you
be with us again tomorrow?

499
00:20:36.540 --> 00:20:38.430
<v ->Absolutely. I'd love to Thank you.</v>

500
00:20:38.430 --> 00:20:39.930
<v ->We'll be back in just a moment.</v>

501
00:20:48.370 --> 00:20:51.700
Someone asked, Why do we anoint the sick with oil?

502
00:20:51.700 --> 00:20:55.000
Well, let's read James 5:14,

503
00:20:55.000 --> 00:20:56.890
which says is any sick among you?

504
00:20:56.890 --> 00:20:58.930
Let him call for the elders of the church

505
00:20:58.930 --> 00:21:01.090
and let them pray over him, anointing him

506
00:21:01.090 --> 00:21:02.380
with oil in the name of the Lord.

507
00:21:02.380 --> 00:21:04.600
And the prayer of faith
shall save the sick

508
00:21:04.600 --> 00:21:06.190
and the Lord shall raise him up.

509
00:21:06.190 --> 00:21:09.670
First of all, the word sick
in this verse describes people

510
00:21:09.670 --> 00:21:11.980
that are home bound or bedfast.

511
00:21:11.980 --> 00:21:14.320
These are people who
can't get to the church

512
00:21:14.320 --> 00:21:15.640
to receive prayer.

513
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:18.040
They are so sick that
they call for the elders

514
00:21:18.040 --> 00:21:19.510
to come for them.

515
00:21:19.510 --> 00:21:21.340
And when the elders come, they anoint them

516
00:21:21.340 --> 00:21:23.440
with oil in the name of the Lord.

517
00:21:23.440 --> 00:21:26.470
Oil is symbolic of the Holy Spirit.

518
00:21:26.470 --> 00:21:28.720
It is a point of contact that when

519
00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:30.490
that oil touches a person's head there

520
00:21:30.490 --> 00:21:31.750
to release their faith,

521
00:21:31.750 --> 00:21:34.300
and that combined together with a prayer

522
00:21:34.300 --> 00:21:35.920
of faith shall save the sick.

523
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:38.650
The word save in Greek
means will heal the sick

524
00:21:38.650 --> 00:21:41.170
and the Lord shall raise him up.

525
00:21:41.170 --> 00:21:44.830
My friends. That is the
reason why we anoint the

526
00:21:44.830 --> 00:21:46.300
sick with oil.

527
00:21:46.300 --> 00:21:48.880
<v ->2nd Timothy 1:7 says,</v>

528
00:21:48.880 --> 00:21:52.360
God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power

529
00:21:52.360 --> 00:21:54.940
and of love, and of a sound mind.

530
00:21:54.940 --> 00:21:58.840
For believers, this means
peace should be a lifestyle.

531
00:21:58.840 --> 00:22:01.930
We must fill our mind and
spirit with the word of God

532
00:22:01.930 --> 00:22:04.930
and allow it to dictate the way we live.

533
00:22:04.930 --> 00:22:07.570

<v ->Hey friends, this is Rick
Renner, and guess where I am.</v>

560
00:23:27.490 --> 00:23:31.510
I'm seated in the foyer of the
Tulsa Ministry headquarters.

561
00:23:31.510 --> 00:23:33.160
And I love this foyer.

562
00:23:33.160 --> 00:23:35.560
First of all, when you come
in here immediately you

563
00:23:35.560 --> 00:23:37.150
feel excellence.

564
00:23:37.150 --> 00:23:38.440
We wanted it to be beautiful,

565
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:40.030
but we didn't spend a lot of money to do it

566
00:23:40.030 --> 00:23:43.090
because we're very careful with the funds that we receive.

567
00:23:43.090 --> 00:23:45.680
But the reason I love this foyer is

568
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:47.960
because of what's on the walls

569
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:50.030
and on the wall behind the camera

570
00:23:50.030 --> 00:23:53.240
and right over here, there are big displays of letters

571
00:23:53.240 --> 00:23:57.110
which we received from Russian viewers in the early years

572
00:23:57.110 --> 00:24:00.020
when we were getting so much mail,

573
00:24:00.020 --> 00:24:03.230
we stopped counting the mail by the pieces

574
00:24:03.230 --> 00:24:06.200
and started counting the mail by the tons.

575
00:24:06.200 --> 00:24:09.980
I am not exaggerating when
I tell you that we received

576
00:24:09.980 --> 00:24:13.940
between 80 and 100 tons

577
00:24:13.940 --> 00:24:17.870
of mail from people that
were reaching out to us,

578
00:24:17.870 --> 00:24:20.095
and we answered every single letter.

579
00:24:20.095 --> 00:24:21.710
And you know, to answer
every letter, you gotta pay

580
00:24:21.710 --> 00:24:24.650
for stationary, you
gotta pay for envelopes,

581
00:24:24.650 --> 00:24:25.760
you gotta pay for stamps.

582
00:24:25.760 --> 00:24:28.160
People don't think about
what it costs to answer

583
00:24:28.160 --> 00:24:29.570
that kind of mail.

584
00:24:29.570 --> 00:24:32.030
But my friends, it was a
massive amount of money just

585
00:24:32.030 --> 00:24:33.530
to respond to that mail.

586
00:24:33.530 --> 00:24:36.500
But we did it because of our partners.

587
00:24:36.500 --> 00:24:38.540
And now from this facility,

588
00:24:38.540 --> 00:24:40.430
we've taken ministry to the next level.

589
00:24:40.430 --> 00:24:43.070
We're not just reaching Russia, we're reaching

590
00:24:43.070 --> 00:24:47.360
around the planet with television and all kinds of media.

591
00:24:47.360 --> 00:24:50.810
And this office in Tulsa responds to people

592
00:24:50.810 --> 00:24:54.080
that are reaching out to
us from around the world.

593
00:24:54.080 --> 00:24:56.360
And because we have this
facility, we're able

594
00:24:56.360 --> 00:24:59.960
to do this professionally and excellently.

595
00:24:59.960 --> 00:25:02.690
And I want to say thank you for helping us

596
00:25:02.690 --> 00:25:04.700
to purchase this facility.

597
00:25:04.700 --> 00:25:06.860
And if you're not already a
member of our giving team,

598
00:25:06.860 --> 00:25:09.290
please pray about being a part

599
00:25:09.290 --> 00:25:11.360
of the Ministry Expansion Project.

600
00:25:17.270 --> 00:25:20.330
Well today we've been talking with Nancy Defresne and Denise

601
00:25:20.330 --> 00:25:23.600
and I are just pinching
ourself that Nancy is

602
00:25:23.600 --> 00:25:26.210
with us in Moscow, in our studio

603
00:25:26.210 --> 00:25:28.850
and with you. Nancy, thank you for being with

604
00:25:28.850 --> 00:25:29.850
us.

605
00:25:29.850 --> 00:25:31.040
<v ->It is my complete joy. Thank you for</v>

606
00:25:31.040 --> 00:25:32.040
having me.

607
00:25:32.040 --> 00:25:32.900
If we stopped right now,

608
00:25:32.900 --> 00:25:35.090
what we have shared in
this program is enough

609
00:25:35.090 --> 00:25:37.065
to liberate people already.

610
00:25:37.065 --> 00:25:39.470
If you can get a grip on your mind,

611
00:25:39.470 --> 00:25:42.725
you can release everything
that is inside your spirit.

612
00:25:42.725 --> 00:25:44.300
Everything you need is already in you.

613
00:25:44.300 --> 00:25:47.365
It's not out here somewhere.
It's inside you. Absolutely.

614
00:25:47.365 --> 00:25:49.790
When the Holy Spirit came in
you, he brought everything

615
00:25:49.790 --> 00:25:51.200
that you need Now.

616
00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:53.660
You need to get your mind under control

617
00:25:53.660 --> 00:25:55.940
and in agreement with your spirit so

618
00:25:55.940 --> 00:25:57.050
that what's in you can begin

619
00:25:57.050 --> 00:25:59.090
to flow into every part of your life.

620
00:25:59.090 --> 00:26:00.090
<v ->Right</v>

621
00:26:00.090 --> 00:26:01.400
<v ->But we want you to get the whole series,</v>

622
00:26:01.400 --> 00:26:03.710
which is called, The Divine Healer.

623
00:26:03.710 --> 00:26:05.780
It's with me and Denise and Nancy Dufresne.

624
00:26:05.780 --> 00:26:07.370

625
00:26:07.370 --> 00:26:08.870
and we want you to get Nancy's book.

626
00:26:08.870 --> 00:26:10.790
I've read it from cover to cover.

627
00:26:10.790 --> 00:26:13.160
It's practical, it is easy to read,

628
00:26:13.160 --> 00:26:16.595
and it's called, The Healer Divine. I really like that name.

629
00:26:16.595 --> 00:26:19.670
<v ->Good, good. And - She goes through the healings</v>

630
00:26:19.670 --> 00:26:21.920
of Jesus in the Gospels.

631
00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:23.780
And I learned so much from this book,

632
00:26:23.780 --> 00:26:25.490

00:26:49.650 --> 00:26:51.570
And I wanna pray for you right now.

643
00:26:51.570 --> 00:26:53.310
Father, I think you in the name of Jesus

644
00:26:53.310 --> 00:26:55.680
for the wonderful Word of God.

645
00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:57.600
And we pray, father, that we will apply

646
00:26:57.600 --> 00:27:00.060
what we've heard in this program today

647
00:27:00.060 --> 00:27:01.800
and pull our mind in submission

648
00:27:01.800 --> 00:27:03.840
and into agreement with our spirit.

649
00:27:03.840 --> 00:27:07.920
So everything good in us
can flow into our lives.

650
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:09.870
In Jesus' name, amen. Amen.

651
00:27:09.870 --> 00:27:10.920
<v ->Amen. Amen.</v>

652
00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:12.600
<v ->Well see in the next program.</v>

653
00:27:12.600 --> 00:27:16.410
But until then, remember Ecclesiastes 8:4, it says,

654
00:27:16.410 --> 00:27:20.820
"Where the word of a king is, there is power."

655
00:27:20.820 --> 00:27:23.100
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior

656
00:27:23.100 --> 00:27:26.790
and Lord, now is the time for you to experience a new life

657
00:27:26.790 --> 00:27:28.410
Jesus has to give you.

658
00:27:28.410 --> 00:27:31.230
Pray this prayer with me right now; Lord,

659
00:27:31.230 --> 00:27:34.620
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior

660
00:27:34.620 --> 00:27:39.180
and Lord. Wash away my sin and make me completely new.

661
00:27:39.180 --> 00:27:42.330
I thank you that my sin is removed

662
00:27:42.330 --> 00:27:47.190
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.

663
00:27:47.190 --> 00:27:50.490
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord

664
00:27:50.490 --> 00:27:53.550
for the rest of my life. Amen.

665
00:27:53.550 --> 00:27:55.800
