00:00:01.380 --> 00:00:04.080
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:04.080 --> 00:00:08.160
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:11.370
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.370 --> 00:00:14.940
and your mind where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:14.940 --> 00:00:16.920
uncertain times.
6
00:00:16.920 --> 00:00:20.190
And doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.190 --> 00:00:21.630
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.630 --> 00:00:26.190
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:27.060 --> 00:00:28.980
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.090 --> 00:00:32.250
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.590 --> 00:00:36.150
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.400 --> 00:00:39.750
Welcome to today's program.
13
00:00:39.750 --> 00:00:41.130
My name is Rick Renner
14
00:00:41.130 --> 00:00:44.640
and I wanna say thank you
for letting me come right to
15
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:45.900
where you are.
16
00:00:45.900 --> 00:00:49.410
And today we're returning
to the 10 part series,
17
00:00:49.410 --> 00:00:52.320
which is called Everything You Need
18
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:54.545
to Know About Healing.
19
00:00:54.545 --> 00:00:58.110
It is a 10 part series, which
comes in all kinds of formats
20
00:00:58.110 --> 00:00:59.610
with a great study guide.
21
00:00:59.610 --> 00:01:02.670
And everything in the
series is in the study guide
22
00:01:02.670 --> 00:01:05.460
so you can read the material
while you are seeing
23
00:01:05.460 --> 00:01:06.720
or hearing the series
24
00:01:06.720 --> 00:01:08.610
and really get it down deep inside you.
25
00:01:08.610 --> 00:01:11.100
And I'm also speaking to you from my book
26
00:01:11.940 --> 00:01:14.370
by the same title called
Everything You Need
27
00:01:14.370 --> 00:01:15.630
to Know About Healing.
28
00:01:15.630 --> 00:01:18.300
It is so exhaustive my friends.
29
00:01:18.300 --> 00:01:19.710
It's my first book on healing.
30
00:01:19.710 --> 00:01:21.450
So I wanted to answer your questions
31
00:01:21.450 --> 00:01:25.830
and provide you answers about
how to walk into healing
32
00:01:25.830 --> 00:01:27.840
and divine health.
33
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:31.200
And my friend Mike Clark wrote
a book which is called There
34
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:32.850
is a Light at the End of Your Tunnel.
35
00:01:32.850 --> 00:01:35.880
And when I read it, I was
so impacted by it, I said,
36
00:01:35.880 --> 00:01:37.980
can I write the forward for this?
37
00:01:37.980 --> 00:01:40.350
It's a very practical book to show
38
00:01:40.350 --> 00:01:43.560
what he did when he was
diagnosed with cancer,
39
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.370
but walked from that diagnosis
into healing and health.
40
00:01:47.370 --> 00:01:49.710
And today he is the picture of health.
41
00:01:49.710 --> 00:01:51.690
And the book is just so practical.
42
00:01:51.690 --> 00:01:53.070
I know it would encourage you
43
00:01:53.070 --> 00:01:56.880
or someone you know who's
struggling in their health,
44
00:01:56.880 --> 00:02:00.090
but you can find out about all
these things by going online
45
00:02:00.090 --> 00:02:02.340
or by giving us a call.
46
00:02:02.340 --> 00:02:05.550
And right now I want to give you this.
47
00:02:05.550 --> 00:02:09.810
This is a a sheet of healing
scriptures for meditation
48
00:02:09.810 --> 00:02:11.190
and confession.
49
00:02:11.190 --> 00:02:13.770
We designed this, we chose these verses,
50
00:02:13.770 --> 00:02:15.450
we wrote these confessions.
51
00:02:15.450 --> 00:02:18.060
And you can choose one every day to read
52
00:02:18.060 --> 00:02:19.770
and to confess over your life.
53
00:02:19.770 --> 00:02:21.870
Put it on the refrigerator,
put it on the mirror,
54
00:02:21.870 --> 00:02:23.610
or somewhere where you're going to see it.
55
00:02:23.610 --> 00:02:26.400
You need to have the word
of God regularly in front
56
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:30.210
of you about the healing and
health that belongs to you.
57
00:02:30.210 --> 00:02:33.540
And that's why we did this.
We designed it just for you.
58
00:02:33.540 --> 00:02:37.230
And you can get yours
right now by going online.
59
00:02:37.230 --> 00:02:39.750
You can just download it this very moment.
60
00:02:39.750 --> 00:02:44.370
Or if you want a hard copy,
call us or send us an email
61
00:02:44.370 --> 00:02:47.430
and we will send you a
hard copy in the mail.
62
00:02:47.430 --> 00:02:51.090
And please, when you reach
out to us, always let us know
63
00:02:51.090 --> 00:02:52.530
how to pray for you.
64
00:02:52.530 --> 00:02:54.540
We're told in one John five, 14
65
00:02:54.540 --> 00:02:57.930
and 15, if we pray anything
according to the will of God,
66
00:02:57.930 --> 00:02:59.620
he hears us.
67
00:02:59.620 --> 00:03:02.590
Which means when you pray the
scripture about your need,
68
00:03:02.590 --> 00:03:05.290
it opens the ears of God to your need.
69
00:03:05.290 --> 00:03:07.570
God listens for his word
70
00:03:07.570 --> 00:03:09.910
and it says, if you pray
anything according to his will
71
00:03:09.910 --> 00:03:12.370
or according to the Bible, he hears us.
72
00:03:12.370 --> 00:03:13.810
And if he hears us,
73
00:03:13.810 --> 00:03:16.510
then we're gonna have
the petitions which we
74
00:03:16.510 --> 00:03:17.590
have requested of him.
75
00:03:17.590 --> 00:03:20.830
So we know how to pray
scripturally biblically.
76
00:03:20.830 --> 00:03:23.530
So if you need somebody to pray
with you, call that number,
77
00:03:23.530 --> 00:03:26.110
call it right now or send us an email
78
00:03:26.110 --> 00:03:29.590
and we will begin to really pray for you.
79
00:03:29.590 --> 00:03:32.110
But today we are going
to continue to see how
80
00:03:32.110 --> 00:03:35.020
to appropriate the healing
81
00:03:35.020 --> 00:03:40.020
and health that Jesus
purchased for you on the cross.
82
00:03:40.150 --> 00:03:42.400
So I want you to reach for your Bible
83
00:03:42.400 --> 00:03:45.370
and we're gonna return to
where we left off yesterday.
84
00:03:45.370 --> 00:03:49.000
And we are seeing there are 10
very important things for you
85
00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.490
to do to appropriate the healing
86
00:03:51.490 --> 00:03:53.500
and health that belongs to you.
87
00:03:53.500 --> 00:03:57.940
And they are renewing
your mind to the truth,
88
00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:00.430
aligning your heart
89
00:04:00.430 --> 00:04:04.450
and mouth, holding fast
to your confession,
90
00:04:05.380 --> 00:04:08.080
letting patients do its work.
91
00:04:08.080 --> 00:04:11.980
Yesterday we saw we need to
ask God for clarification
92
00:04:11.980 --> 00:04:15.730
and it's vital to stay
in unwavering faith.
93
00:04:15.730 --> 00:04:19.900
Today we're gonna see 0.7 and
eight laying hands on the sick
94
00:04:19.900 --> 00:04:22.150
and letting the gifts of healing
95
00:04:22.150 --> 00:04:25.240
and working of miracles to do their work.
96
00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:26.950
And tomorrow we're going to see
97
00:04:26.950 --> 00:04:29.140
what the Bible says about taking communion
98
00:04:29.140 --> 00:04:33.190
to receive healing and
calling the elders to pray
99
00:04:33.190 --> 00:04:36.430
with the anointing of
oil to receive healing.
100
00:04:36.430 --> 00:04:39.430
All 10 of these are vital for you
101
00:04:39.430 --> 00:04:43.630
to appropriate the healing and
health that belongs to you.
102
00:04:43.630 --> 00:04:45.640
But today we're gonna
begin with number seven,
103
00:04:45.640 --> 00:04:48.010
which is laying hands on the sick.
104
00:04:48.010 --> 00:04:50.860
Up until now, we've talked
about all the things you need
105
00:04:50.860 --> 00:04:54.310
to privately do to stay
in faith, to believe God,
106
00:04:54.310 --> 00:04:56.920
to renew your mind, to align
your heart and your mouth.
107
00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.350
All those things are essential for you
108
00:04:59.350 --> 00:05:01.180
to step into healing and health.
109
00:05:01.180 --> 00:05:02.860
But now we're gonna see
110
00:05:02.860 --> 00:05:05.500
what the Bible says about
the laying on of hands.
111
00:05:05.500 --> 00:05:09.100
And the Bible makes it very,
very clear from Genesis
112
00:05:09.100 --> 00:05:11.230
to the end of the New Testament
113
00:05:11.230 --> 00:05:14.770
that God has always used
the laying on of hands.
114
00:05:14.770 --> 00:05:18.520
Listen to this, the Bible shows
115
00:05:18.520 --> 00:05:22.240
how God has always used hands as conduits
116
00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:26.050
for the miraculous exchange
of power, blessings,
117
00:05:26.050 --> 00:05:28.810
spiritual gifts and authority.
118
00:05:28.810 --> 00:05:31.600
Why hands may not possess any supernatural
119
00:05:31.600 --> 00:05:33.520
properties on their own.
120
00:05:33.520 --> 00:05:38.140
God in his infinite wisdom
chose them as vessels
121
00:05:38.140 --> 00:05:40.780
for spiritual transmission.
122
00:05:40.780 --> 00:05:45.400
A divine transaction takes
place when a believer lays hands
123
00:05:45.400 --> 00:05:47.410
on another person in faith
124
00:05:47.410 --> 00:05:50.950
and the Holy Spirit then
imparts whatever is needed
125
00:05:50.950 --> 00:05:52.270
to the recipient.
126
00:05:52.270 --> 00:05:56.020
This includes healing
deliverance to the sick
127
00:05:56.020 --> 00:05:59.060
and the oppressed and so much more.
128
00:05:59.060 --> 00:06:01.550
It's well established in scripture
129
00:06:01.550 --> 00:06:05.420
that God designed human
hands to be his instruments
130
00:06:05.420 --> 00:06:08.000
through which these blessings
would be transferred
131
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:10.070
to another person.
132
00:06:10.070 --> 00:06:12.620
But we can also see throughout the word
133
00:06:12.620 --> 00:06:16.340
that this same principle is
true concerning God's hands.
134
00:06:16.340 --> 00:06:19.580
In the Old Testament, we
read often about the hand
135
00:06:19.580 --> 00:06:22.550
of the Lord coming upon someone.
136
00:06:22.550 --> 00:06:24.500
That Old Testament phrase was used
137
00:06:24.500 --> 00:06:28.580
to denote a moment when
God supernaturally imparted
138
00:06:28.580 --> 00:06:32.450
something to a person
or to a group of people.
139
00:06:32.450 --> 00:06:36.650
The laying on of hands is a
very important Bible doctrine.
140
00:06:36.650 --> 00:06:40.520
And in fact, it is so crucial
to our faith that it's listed
141
00:06:40.520 --> 00:06:42.200
among the fundamental doctrines
142
00:06:42.200 --> 00:06:44.000
of the faith in Hebrews chapter six.
143
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:47.210
And its right smack dab in
the very middle of them.
144
00:06:47.210 --> 00:06:50.300
The laying on of hands is a fun mental
145
00:06:50.300 --> 00:06:51.830
doctrine of the faith.
146
00:06:51.830 --> 00:06:53.180
We need to understand friends
147
00:06:53.180 --> 00:06:57.440
that our hands are instruments,
they're conduits through,
148
00:06:57.440 --> 00:07:00.440
its all kinds of spiritual
things are transmitted
149
00:07:00.440 --> 00:07:02.000
to other people,
150
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:03.890
and we can see the laying on
151
00:07:03.890 --> 00:07:06.350
of hands in the ministry of Jesus.
152
00:07:06.350 --> 00:07:08.810
Let's go to Luke chapter four, verse 40.
153
00:07:08.810 --> 00:07:12.110
And the Bible tells us now
when the sun was setting,
154
00:07:12.110 --> 00:07:14.240
all they that had any sick
155
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.820
with divers diseases
brought them unto him.
156
00:07:16.820 --> 00:07:21.590
And listen to this, he
laid his hands on every one
157
00:07:21.590 --> 00:07:24.140
of them and healed them.
158
00:07:24.140 --> 00:07:26.600
This was a multitude.
159
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:27.680
But verse 40 says,
160
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:31.880
Jesus laid his hands on
every single one of them.
161
00:07:31.880 --> 00:07:36.440
Can you imagine the time it
took for Jesus to do this?
162
00:07:36.440 --> 00:07:37.940
This wasn't just a prayer line
163
00:07:37.940 --> 00:07:40.490
where Jesus were quickly
passing by people.
164
00:07:40.490 --> 00:07:43.640
He was taking time to
get his hands on people
165
00:07:43.640 --> 00:07:47.210
because Jesus understood
that his hands were conduits,
166
00:07:47.210 --> 00:07:50.060
they were vessels through
which God transmitted power
167
00:07:50.060 --> 00:07:53.330
and healing and deliverance
and all kinds of blessings.
168
00:07:53.330 --> 00:07:57.470
And Jesus realized that laying
his hands on the afflicted
169
00:07:57.470 --> 00:08:00.950
and even those that were
demonized would impart to them
170
00:08:00.950 --> 00:08:04.040
what they needed for that
ailment to leave them
171
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:06.410
and for them to be left
in a state of health.
172
00:08:06.410 --> 00:08:08.930
And in Luke four, verse 40, we find
173
00:08:08.930 --> 00:08:13.790
that Jesus took vast amounts
of time to get his hands on
174
00:08:13.790 --> 00:08:15.740
as many people as possible.
175
00:08:15.740 --> 00:08:18.260
And in fact, if you study
the whole ministry of Jesus,
176
00:08:18.260 --> 00:08:22.250
Jesus was touching people all the time.
177
00:08:22.250 --> 00:08:25.640
This was a regular
feature of Jesus ministry.
178
00:08:25.640 --> 00:08:29.360
We even see that when Jesus
returned to his own hometown,
179
00:08:29.360 --> 00:08:32.480
mark chapter six, verse five says,
180
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:36.470
he could there do no
mighty work, save that.
181
00:08:36.470 --> 00:08:41.300
He laid his hands up on a few
sick folk and healed them.
182
00:08:41.300 --> 00:08:45.110
But here again, we see
Jesus is laying his hands
183
00:08:45.110 --> 00:08:46.790
on people.
184
00:08:46.790 --> 00:08:51.530
And listen to this in
Matthew eight verse three,
185
00:08:51.530 --> 00:08:55.890
Jesus laid his hands on
a man and healed him.
186
00:08:55.890 --> 00:08:58.020
In Matthew eight 15,
187
00:08:58.020 --> 00:09:01.740
Jesus laid his hands on
Peter's mother-in-law
188
00:09:01.740 --> 00:09:03.150
and healed her.
189
00:09:03.150 --> 00:09:05.460
In Matthew 9 23,
190
00:09:05.460 --> 00:09:10.350
Jesus laid his hands again on
blind people and healed them.
191
00:09:10.350 --> 00:09:12.750
In Matthew 17, verse seven,
192
00:09:12.750 --> 00:09:16.080
Jesus laid his hands on the apostles
193
00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:19.830
and divinely imparted
encouragement to them.
194
00:09:19.830 --> 00:09:22.110
In Matthew 20, verse 34,
195
00:09:22.110 --> 00:09:25.980
Jesus again laid his hands on blind people
196
00:09:25.980 --> 00:09:29.970
and his healing power passed
through his hands into them,
197
00:09:29.970 --> 00:09:31.710
they were healed.
198
00:09:31.710 --> 00:09:33.660
And in Mark 1 41,
199
00:09:33.660 --> 00:09:37.890
as Jesus laid his hands
on a leper power passed
200
00:09:37.890 --> 00:09:41.280
through his hands and
the leper was cleansed.
201
00:09:41.280 --> 00:09:43.260
In Mark 8 22,
202
00:09:43.260 --> 00:09:47.880
Jesus again laid his hands
on a blind man healing power
203
00:09:47.880 --> 00:09:49.650
passed through his hands
204
00:09:49.650 --> 00:09:53.550
and the blind man was completely healed.
205
00:09:53.550 --> 00:09:55.710
And as you continue in the gospel of Luke
206
00:09:55.710 --> 00:09:58.980
and the gospel of John
again and again, and again
207
00:09:58.980 --> 00:10:02.880
and again, Jesus is using his
hands, he's laying his hands,
208
00:10:02.880 --> 00:10:05.520
laying his hands, laying
his hands upon people.
209
00:10:05.520 --> 00:10:09.000
And when you come to the
Book of Acts, this continues.
210
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:10.620
Do you know why it continued?
211
00:10:10.620 --> 00:10:12.600
Because they understood
that from the very beginning
212
00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:14.820
of the Old Testament
to that present moment,
213
00:10:14.820 --> 00:10:19.140
God had always used
hands for the impartation
214
00:10:19.140 --> 00:10:21.600
of blessings and power.
215
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:23.640
They knew it from the ministry of Jesus
216
00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:24.930
and they learned from Jesus
217
00:10:24.930 --> 00:10:27.210
to lay their hands upon the sick.
218
00:10:27.210 --> 00:10:31.110
And when the Holy Spirit was
poured out in Acts chapter two,
219
00:10:31.110 --> 00:10:34.230
the early church just
continued the practice
220
00:10:34.230 --> 00:10:37.590
of laying hands on the sick.
221
00:10:37.590 --> 00:10:40.950
My friends, we are commanded
in scripture to do this.
222
00:10:40.950 --> 00:10:45.950
And in fact, in Mark 16 verse
18, we find all believers
223
00:10:46.380 --> 00:10:50.250
are commanded to lay
their hands on the sick.
224
00:10:50.250 --> 00:10:51.420
Listen to this verse,
225
00:10:52.650 --> 00:10:55.710
mark 1618 says they
226
00:10:55.710 --> 00:10:59.280
that means believers shall
lay hands on the sick
227
00:10:59.280 --> 00:11:03.330
and they the sick shall recover.
228
00:11:03.330 --> 00:11:06.750
It means every single believer
is ordained to do this.
229
00:11:06.750 --> 00:11:08.280
The Holy Spirit is in you.
230
00:11:08.280 --> 00:11:10.980
You have resident within
you, the greater one.
231
00:11:10.980 --> 00:11:14.430
The Greek says the far,
far, far greater one, that's
232
00:11:14.430 --> 00:11:17.220
who lives inside you and my friends.
233
00:11:17.220 --> 00:11:20.130
If you'll get your
hands outta your pockets
234
00:11:20.130 --> 00:11:22.560
and start putting them on people,
235
00:11:22.560 --> 00:11:24.690
you will see the percentages of those
236
00:11:24.690 --> 00:11:26.400
that are healed going up and up and up.
237
00:11:26.400 --> 00:11:28.650
But as long as you keep
your hands in your pocket,
238
00:11:28.650 --> 00:11:30.600
you're not gonna see this particular kind
239
00:11:30.600 --> 00:11:32.190
of healing manifestation.
240
00:11:32.190 --> 00:11:35.220
But the more you use your hands,
241
00:11:35.220 --> 00:11:38.160
it will increase the chances
that you're gonna see more
242
00:11:38.160 --> 00:11:39.300
and more and more.
243
00:11:39.300 --> 00:11:44.300
And people healed. Jesus was
touching people all the time.
244
00:11:44.550 --> 00:11:46.350
And from that, in my own personal life,
245
00:11:46.350 --> 00:11:48.480
I'm touching people all the time.
246
00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:49.890
Even when I just reach out
247
00:11:49.890 --> 00:11:51.930
to touch somebody on the
shoulder, I'm believing
248
00:11:51.930 --> 00:11:54.070
for a divine transmission.
249
00:11:54.070 --> 00:11:58.390
Hands are conduits, they are
vessels, they're instruments
250
00:11:58.390 --> 00:12:02.440
through which all kinds of
spiritual things are transmitted
251
00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:06.640
to other people, including
healing and deliverance.
252
00:12:06.640 --> 00:12:08.860
But I want you to hear this.
253
00:12:08.860 --> 00:12:11.830
If you'll get your hands
out of your pockets
254
00:12:11.830 --> 00:12:14.530
and start laying them on people, you begin
255
00:12:14.530 --> 00:12:16.660
to see supernatural activity
256
00:12:16.660 --> 00:12:20.380
because God works through
the laying on of hands.
257
00:12:20.380 --> 00:12:23.950
Take a good look at your hands
258
00:12:23.950 --> 00:12:26.800
and realize with fresh understanding
259
00:12:26.800 --> 00:12:28.930
that they're more than just hands.
260
00:12:28.930 --> 00:12:31.330
They're instruments that God wants to use
261
00:12:31.330 --> 00:12:34.420
to impart blessings to others.
262
00:12:34.420 --> 00:12:37.030
They may look like mere hands to you,
263
00:12:37.030 --> 00:12:40.510
but your hands are actually
conduits through which all kinds
264
00:12:40.510 --> 00:12:43.720
of spiritual goods are
meant to be transferred
265
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:45.010
to other people.
266
00:12:45.010 --> 00:12:47.500
And as you lay hands on
others by the leading
267
00:12:47.500 --> 00:12:49.630
of the Holy Spirit, you will begin
268
00:12:49.630 --> 00:12:53.980
to regularly see supernatural
evidence of God's power
269
00:12:53.980 --> 00:12:57.310
and blessing manifested in people's lives
270
00:12:57.310 --> 00:13:00.310
because of your obedience.
271
00:13:00.310 --> 00:13:02.830
And my friends, God
wants to use your hands
272
00:13:02.830 --> 00:13:05.350
to bring other people into
a healing manifestation.
273
00:13:05.350 --> 00:13:08.320
And if you're sick, God
may use somebody else
274
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:11.620
to lay hands on you for you to get well.
275
00:13:11.620 --> 00:13:14.440
It is very vital that we
understand this is one way
276
00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:19.300
to appropriate the healing
and health that belongs to us.
277
00:13:19.300 --> 00:13:22.870
And just three things are required for God
278
00:13:22.870 --> 00:13:25.390
to use you in the laying on of hands.
279
00:13:25.390 --> 00:13:30.370
Number one, have a desire
for God to heal through you.
280
00:13:30.370 --> 00:13:35.370
Number two, have hands and
lay hands on sick people.
281
00:13:35.380 --> 00:13:37.900
Number three, release your faith
282
00:13:37.900 --> 00:13:40.570
and believe that God's
power will be transmitted
283
00:13:40.570 --> 00:13:42.400
through your hands to heal
284
00:13:42.400 --> 00:13:46.270
and to impart blessings of all kinds.
285
00:13:46.270 --> 00:13:48.820
But I want you to understand
that all healing is not
286
00:13:48.820 --> 00:13:50.050
instantaneous.
287
00:13:50.050 --> 00:13:53.980
For example, in Mark 16 verse
18, let's look at it again.
288
00:13:53.980 --> 00:13:58.930
It says, lay hands on the
sick and they shall recover.
289
00:13:58.930 --> 00:14:02.620
Those two words, they
shall are futuristic.
290
00:14:02.620 --> 00:14:05.770
It's from a futuristic form
of a Greek word that means
291
00:14:05.770 --> 00:14:08.020
to have to hold or to possess.
292
00:14:08.020 --> 00:14:10.780
But the tense used here
doesn't picture something
293
00:14:10.780 --> 00:14:12.490
that is instantaneous,
294
00:14:12.490 --> 00:14:15.130
but refers to something
that occurs progressively
295
00:14:15.130 --> 00:14:17.890
or over a period of time.
296
00:14:17.890 --> 00:14:20.710
Furthermore, let's look
at this word recovery
297
00:14:20.710 --> 00:14:23.650
because this word recover
is very insightful.
298
00:14:23.650 --> 00:14:26.080
The word recover is a
translation of a form
299
00:14:26.080 --> 00:14:28.000
of the Greek word callous.
300
00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.780
It means to be in good shape,
to be healthy or to be well.
301
00:14:31.780 --> 00:14:33.730
And when we take the meaning of the words,
302
00:14:33.730 --> 00:14:36.790
they shall recover together as one phrase.
303
00:14:36.790 --> 00:14:38.230
It pictures those
304
00:14:38.230 --> 00:14:41.560
who progressively feel
themselves getting better
305
00:14:41.560 --> 00:14:44.980
and better until finally
they're well and healthy.
306
00:14:44.980 --> 00:14:46.300
And it lets us know
307
00:14:46.300 --> 00:14:49.510
that all healings do not occur instantly.
308
00:14:49.510 --> 00:14:53.180
Some of them take place
over a period of time,
309
00:14:53.180 --> 00:14:56.240
but what is important is for
you to get your hands out
310
00:14:56.240 --> 00:14:59.480
of your pockets and put them on people.
311
00:14:59.480 --> 00:15:00.980
Put them on people.
312
00:15:00.980 --> 00:15:02.990
Don't just walk by people that are sick
313
00:15:02.990 --> 00:15:05.180
or just stand by with
your hands in your pockets
314
00:15:05.180 --> 00:15:07.940
and pray for them by
faith, get your hands out
315
00:15:07.940 --> 00:15:09.890
of your pockets and get
your hands on people.
316
00:15:09.890 --> 00:15:13.490
It increases the
percentage of the healings
317
00:15:13.490 --> 00:15:15.620
that you will see take
place right in front of you
318
00:15:15.620 --> 00:15:17.450
and the people that are
gonna be healed and healthy.
319
00:15:17.450 --> 00:15:22.010
As a result. Your hands are instruments
320
00:15:22.010 --> 00:15:24.800
and my friend, you need
to lay hands on people
321
00:15:24.800 --> 00:15:26.060
for them to be healed.
322
00:15:26.060 --> 00:15:29.150
And you might need others
to lay hands on you for you
323
00:15:29.150 --> 00:15:33.500
to appropriate the healing and
health that belongs to you.
324
00:15:33.500 --> 00:15:35.870
But then we come to point number eight,
325
00:15:35.870 --> 00:15:39.200
and that is the gifts of healing
326
00:15:39.200 --> 00:15:42.170
and the working of miracles
327
00:15:42.170 --> 00:15:44.990
we read in one Corinthians 12, verse nine
328
00:15:44.990 --> 00:15:49.610
and 10 to another is
given the gifts, plural,
329
00:15:49.610 --> 00:15:52.220
the gifts of healing by the same spirit
330
00:15:52.220 --> 00:15:56.570
to another is given the
working of miracles.
331
00:15:56.570 --> 00:15:58.370
Let's look at that word gifts,
332
00:15:58.370 --> 00:16:02.060
which in Greek is the word
charismata and it is plural.
333
00:16:02.060 --> 00:16:04.610
The word in the Greek text is plural.
334
00:16:04.610 --> 00:16:08.330
And this lets us know there
are different manifestations
335
00:16:08.330 --> 00:16:11.120
of this particular spiritual gift
336
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:16.120
or there are various ways that
the gift of healing operates.
337
00:16:16.280 --> 00:16:17.720
But what's really important
338
00:16:17.720 --> 00:16:19.640
to understand is the word healing.
339
00:16:19.640 --> 00:16:22.940
The word healing is the Greek
word ea. Oh my and my friends.
340
00:16:22.940 --> 00:16:26.120
This word A is profoundly important.
341
00:16:26.120 --> 00:16:30.380
Listen to this, it means to cure.
342
00:16:30.380 --> 00:16:33.620
And it can also refer to
treatment by a physician.
343
00:16:33.620 --> 00:16:35.450
And this is significant
344
00:16:35.450 --> 00:16:38.060
because when a doctor treats a patient,
345
00:16:38.060 --> 00:16:40.790
the results are rarely immediate.
346
00:16:40.790 --> 00:16:43.400
Instead, they may begin
a course of medication
347
00:16:43.400 --> 00:16:45.110
or suggested procedure
348
00:16:45.110 --> 00:16:48.350
that gradually restores
the person's health.
349
00:16:48.350 --> 00:16:51.830
And the fact that the Holy
Spirit used this word e omi
350
00:16:51.830 --> 00:16:55.520
to describe the gifts
of healing informs us
351
00:16:55.520 --> 00:16:58.340
that like medication works progressively.
352
00:16:58.340 --> 00:17:01.820
Often a supernatural
cure begins with a prayer
353
00:17:01.820 --> 00:17:03.650
or with a laying out of hands,
354
00:17:03.650 --> 00:17:07.160
but the healing may take
full effect progressively
355
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:09.260
or over a period of time.
356
00:17:09.260 --> 00:17:12.350
And all the process remains supernatural.
357
00:17:12.350 --> 00:17:14.090
The use of the word healing,
358
00:17:14.090 --> 00:17:19.090
the Greek word Oma suggests
it may occur in stages.
359
00:17:19.400 --> 00:17:21.980
And we've seen an example
of this in Luke chapter 17,
360
00:17:21.980 --> 00:17:24.350
verse four, when Jesus said
361
00:17:24.350 --> 00:17:26.450
to the 10 lepers, you are healed.
362
00:17:26.450 --> 00:17:28.790
And the Bible says as they went,
363
00:17:28.790 --> 00:17:31.220
it was progressive ea oh my.
364
00:17:31.220 --> 00:17:34.610
It took root in them
over a period of time.
365
00:17:34.610 --> 00:17:35.990
And it's just the fact
366
00:17:35.990 --> 00:17:40.430
that sometimes healing is imparted to you.
367
00:17:40.430 --> 00:17:42.200
And the cure may not be instantaneous,
368
00:17:42.200 --> 00:17:43.610
but the moment that you receive it,
369
00:17:43.610 --> 00:17:45.680
it's like the doctor
giving you medication.
370
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:48.230
It begins the process of healing.
371
00:17:48.230 --> 00:17:51.270
It begins process of
reversing whatever it is
372
00:17:51.270 --> 00:17:52.950
that's going on inside your body.
373
00:17:52.950 --> 00:17:54.780
And when you take your hands off
374
00:17:54.780 --> 00:17:56.460
of a person you've been praying for,
375
00:17:56.460 --> 00:18:01.260
you can be sure you imparted
the divine goods that's going
376
00:18:01.260 --> 00:18:05.160
to begin reversing that person's sickness.
377
00:18:05.160 --> 00:18:08.100
That's a guarantee of scripture,
and that's what the word ea
378
00:18:08.100 --> 00:18:09.720
or my healing really means.
379
00:18:09.720 --> 00:18:13.350
But then there's also
the working of miracles,
380
00:18:13.350 --> 00:18:16.740
which we read about in one
Corinthians 12, verse 10.
381
00:18:16.740 --> 00:18:19.830
It says to another is given the working of
382
00:18:19.830 --> 00:18:21.150
miracles, what does that mean?
383
00:18:21.150 --> 00:18:23.640
Working and miracles?
384
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:25.890
Well, the word working is from a form
385
00:18:25.890 --> 00:18:27.690
of the Greek word inga.
386
00:18:27.690 --> 00:18:32.160
And the word inga is the word for energy.
387
00:18:32.160 --> 00:18:36.180
But when it becomes a particular
word used in verse 10,
388
00:18:36.180 --> 00:18:41.010
it denotes divine activity, divine energy,
389
00:18:41.010 --> 00:18:45.180
divine empowerment or divine involvement.
390
00:18:45.180 --> 00:18:47.850
Suddenly divine activity is released
391
00:18:47.850 --> 00:18:50.940
and it results in miracles.
392
00:18:50.940 --> 00:18:53.850
And the word miracles is
the Greek word duna mayon.
393
00:18:53.850 --> 00:18:58.050
Listen to this. It is the
plural form of dunamis.
394
00:18:58.050 --> 00:19:01.320
It carries the idea of
explosives, super human power
395
00:19:01.320 --> 00:19:03.270
that comes with enormous energy
396
00:19:03.270 --> 00:19:06.510
and produces phenomenal, extraordinary
397
00:19:06.510 --> 00:19:09.270
and unparalleled results.
398
00:19:09.270 --> 00:19:11.100
It is used throughout the New Testament
399
00:19:11.100 --> 00:19:14.820
to depict mighty deeds that
are impressive, incomparable,
400
00:19:14.820 --> 00:19:17.460
and beyond human ability to perform.
401
00:19:17.460 --> 00:19:20.010
And it denotes miraculous power
402
00:19:20.010 --> 00:19:24.030
or miraculous manifestations.
403
00:19:24.030 --> 00:19:27.450
Wow. That's what the word miracles means.
404
00:19:27.450 --> 00:19:28.740
And I want you to hear this.
405
00:19:30.180 --> 00:19:32.430
When Paul writes about
the working of miracles,
406
00:19:32.430 --> 00:19:36.930
he's describing a divine
operation of supernatural power
407
00:19:36.930 --> 00:19:40.620
that comes with enormous energy
that produces phenomenal,
408
00:19:40.620 --> 00:19:43.290
extraordinary, and unparalleled results.
409
00:19:43.290 --> 00:19:48.240
This divine operation of
power overrides natural laws
410
00:19:48.240 --> 00:19:50.130
and does quickly
411
00:19:50.130 --> 00:19:52.590
or instantaneously
412
00:19:52.590 --> 00:19:55.410
what would normally take
place over a long duration
413
00:19:55.410 --> 00:19:58.560
or perhaps it would never
naturally take place.
414
00:19:58.560 --> 00:20:01.560
But when pertaining to the
human body, the working
415
00:20:01.560 --> 00:20:05.820
of miracles usually occurs
in a split second, when,
416
00:20:05.820 --> 00:20:10.080
for example, a damaged
organ or limb is instantly
417
00:20:10.080 --> 00:20:12.540
and supernaturally restored,
418
00:20:12.540 --> 00:20:16.500
God's power suddenly
speeds up a healing process
419
00:20:16.500 --> 00:20:20.190
that would normally take place
over a long period of time
420
00:20:20.190 --> 00:20:23.040
or that would perhaps
never naturally occur.
421
00:20:23.040 --> 00:20:25.080
And in the blink of an eye,
422
00:20:25.080 --> 00:20:28.140
the process is miraculously complete.
423
00:20:28.140 --> 00:20:31.320
When the gift of working of
miracles is in operation,
424
00:20:31.320 --> 00:20:34.290
the power of God overrides
the laws of nature
425
00:20:34.290 --> 00:20:38.310
and enables the impossible
to naturally come
426
00:20:38.310 --> 00:20:39.330
to pass.
427
00:20:40.800 --> 00:20:43.560
That is amazing. That is
the working of miracles.
428
00:20:43.560 --> 00:20:46.740
So here you have the gifts of healing omi,
429
00:20:46.740 --> 00:20:49.570
which a progressive cure.
430
00:20:49.570 --> 00:20:51.370
And then there's the working of miracles,
431
00:20:51.370 --> 00:20:55.090
which is instantaneous when
God overrides natural laws
432
00:20:55.090 --> 00:20:57.940
and quickly does what would
normally take a long time
433
00:20:57.940 --> 00:20:59.860
or perhaps would never even take place.
434
00:20:59.860 --> 00:21:02.110
And very frequently these gifts
435
00:21:02.110 --> 00:21:05.080
of the spirit work in a church setting.
436
00:21:05.080 --> 00:21:09.250
There's great faith at
work in a church setting.
437
00:21:09.250 --> 00:21:12.400
And when these gifts are
in operation, my friends,
438
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:14.590
you can receive a dose of healing
439
00:21:14.590 --> 00:21:16.570
that progressively makes you better
440
00:21:16.570 --> 00:21:18.940
or you can receive a miraculous touch,
441
00:21:18.940 --> 00:21:22.030
which instantly makes
everything right in your body
442
00:21:22.030 --> 00:21:23.140
or in your mind.
443
00:21:24.010 --> 00:21:27.850
So today we've seen through
the laying on of hands,
444
00:21:27.850 --> 00:21:29.650
through the gifts of healing
445
00:21:29.650 --> 00:21:33.370
and through the working of
miracles, these are other ways
446
00:21:33.370 --> 00:21:35.950
that we can appropriate the healing
447
00:21:35.950 --> 00:21:38.320
and health that belongs to us.
448
00:21:38.320 --> 00:21:40.480
But we've got two more to cover
449
00:21:40.480 --> 00:21:42.880
and we'll do that in tomorrow's episode.
450
00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:44.770
But I'll be back in just a moment
451
00:21:44.770 --> 00:21:45.970
and I'm going to pray for you.
452
00:21:53.950 --> 00:21:58.210
Someone has asked the question,
how do I remain steadfast?
453
00:21:58.210 --> 00:22:01.180
Well, I'm really dealing
with a lot of trials.
454
00:22:01.180 --> 00:22:04.900
Well, in James one 12 it
says, blessed is the man
455
00:22:04.900 --> 00:22:07.840
that endures temptation
for when he has tried.
456
00:22:07.840 --> 00:22:10.390
He shall receive the crown of life,
457
00:22:10.390 --> 00:22:13.510
which the Lord has promised
to them that love him.
458
00:22:13.510 --> 00:22:16.390
The word blessed means ridiculously happy.
459
00:22:16.390 --> 00:22:19.030
Well, the reason this person
is ridiculously happy is
460
00:22:19.030 --> 00:22:20.470
because he endured.
461
00:22:20.470 --> 00:22:24.250
And the word endured the Greek
word hoop means he refuses
462
00:22:24.250 --> 00:22:27.580
to bend, he refuses to
bow, refuses to budge.
463
00:22:27.580 --> 00:22:31.270
He's gonna maintain his position of faith.
464
00:22:31.270 --> 00:22:34.840
And finally, at the very end,
he has endured his trial.
465
00:22:34.840 --> 00:22:38.200
He's come through this hard moment
466
00:22:38.200 --> 00:22:39.520
and he stepped into victory.
467
00:22:39.520 --> 00:22:41.230
And that's why the
first of the verse says,
468
00:22:41.230 --> 00:22:44.560
you'll be blessed, you'll be
ridiculously happy if you do
469
00:22:44.560 --> 00:22:46.510
this, my friend.
470
00:22:46.510 --> 00:22:48.100
Stay on track.
471
00:22:48.100 --> 00:22:51.280
Just keep moving forward, step by step,
472
00:22:51.280 --> 00:22:53.350
holding onto the promise of God.
473
00:22:53.350 --> 00:22:55.870
And at the end of the day, you're gonna be
474
00:22:55.870 --> 00:22:57.160
Blessed.
475
00:22:57.160 --> 00:22:59.110

Hey guys, this is Rick
Renner and guess where I am.
504
00:24:26.180 --> 00:24:29.120
This is the lunchroom
in our Tulsa Ministry
505
00:24:29.120 --> 00:24:30.860
headquarters facility.
506
00:24:30.860 --> 00:24:33.170
People have to have a place to work
507
00:24:33.170 --> 00:24:37.580
and they work really hard in
this facility taking calls,
508
00:24:37.580 --> 00:24:39.890
answering letters from thousands
509
00:24:39.890 --> 00:24:42.110
and thousands of people who reach out
510
00:24:42.110 --> 00:24:44.000
to us every day and every week.
511
00:24:44.000 --> 00:24:47.630
But in this room, we
decided to adorn the walls
512
00:24:47.630 --> 00:24:51.590
with photographs of all the
places where we have offices
513
00:24:51.590 --> 00:24:53.480
for Renner Ministries.
514
00:24:53.480 --> 00:24:56.540
But right now we're trying
to pay off this facility.
515
00:24:56.540 --> 00:24:59.270
It's called the Ministry
Expansion Project.
516
00:24:59.270 --> 00:25:03.290
We've already paid off
83% of the facility.
517
00:25:03.290 --> 00:25:06.650
And my friends, we need your
help to help us finish this.
518
00:25:06.650 --> 00:25:08.990
And if you're not already
a part of the Giving team,
519
00:25:08.990 --> 00:25:11.270
I'm inviting you to join us
520
00:25:11.270 --> 00:25:13.940
and to help us pay off this facility.
521
00:25:13.940 --> 00:25:16.640
And when it is finished being paid for,
522
00:25:16.640 --> 00:25:19.010
it's gonna release all those finances
523
00:25:19.010 --> 00:25:22.850
so we can keep taking the teaching of the Bible to the ends
524
00:25:22.850 --> 00:25:24.770
of the Earth.
525
00:25:24.770 --> 00:25:26.990
But thank you for being apart.
526
00:25:35.007 --> 00:25:37.842
Today we have covered a lot of material.
527
00:25:37.842 --> 00:25:41.000
We're looking at the 10 points
that are so vital for you
528
00:25:41.000 --> 00:25:45.530
to appropriate the healing
and health that belong to you.
529
00:25:45.530 --> 00:25:48.200
And in the next program we're gonna cover the next 2
530
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:50.480
points, which are so very important.
531
00:25:50.480 --> 00:25:53.565
Please do not miss tomorrow's episode,
532
00:25:54.440 --> 00:25:57.320
but I'm speaking to you from my series called Everything You
533
00:25:57.320 --> 00:25:59.090
Need to Know About Healing.
534
00:25:59.090 --> 00:26:00.590
It comes with a study guide.
535
00:26:00.590 --> 00:26:03.740
And I'm also speaking to you from my book by the same title,
536
00:26:03.740 --> 00:26:06.230
Everything You Need to Know About Healing,
537
00:26:06.230 --> 00:26:08.090
it is comprehensive.
538
00:26:08.090 --> 00:26:10.040
And my friends, I want you to have the answers
539
00:26:10.040 --> 00:26:14.030
to your questions and to know how to step into the healing
540
00:26:14.030 --> 00:26:17.660
and health that really belonged to you.
541
00:26:17.660 --> 00:26:20.420
And I also want to
recommend Mike Clark's book
542
00:26:20.420 --> 00:26:22.280
called There's a Light at the End of Your Tunnel.
543
00:26:22.280 --> 00:26:24.650
He was diagnosed with cancer,
544
00:26:24.650 --> 00:26:27.800
but he found practical
faith steps to walk from
545
00:26:27.800 --> 00:26:30.260
that diagnosis into healing.
546
00:26:30.260 --> 00:26:32.750
And today, he is as healthy as can be.
547
00:26:32.750 --> 00:26:35.330
And my friends, I believe
this book will encourage you
548
00:26:35.330 --> 00:26:37.340
or someone that you know
549
00:26:37.340 --> 00:26:40.430
and you can find out about all
these things by going online
550
00:26:40.430 --> 00:26:42.230
or by giving us a call.
551
00:26:42.230 --> 00:26:43.380
And please call us
552
00:26:43.380 --> 00:26:46.110
or write to us to let us
know how to pray for you.
553
00:26:46.110 --> 00:26:48.870
And I'm gonna pray for you right now.
554
00:26:48.870 --> 00:26:51.300
Lord, I thank you for healing power
555
00:26:51.300 --> 00:26:54.420
and I thank you for instantaneous miraculous power.
556
00:26:54.420 --> 00:26:55.680
Do it however you want.
557
00:26:55.680 --> 00:26:57.120
We just ask that you do it
558
00:26:57.120 --> 00:27:01.200
and help us to appropriate
what Jesus purchased
559
00:27:01.200 --> 00:27:03.840
for us on the cross in Jesus' name - Amen.
560
00:27:08.280 --> 00:27:09.690
I'll see you tomorrow.
561
00:27:09.690 --> 00:27:13.530
But remember, Ecclesiastes 8:4 says, "Where the word
562
00:27:13.530 --> 00:27:16.920
of a king is, there is power."
563
00:27:16.920 --> 00:27:19.200
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior
564
00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.580
and Lord, now is the time for you to experience a new life
565
00:27:23.580 --> 00:27:25.740
Jesus has to give you.
566
00:27:25.740 --> 00:27:29.820
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
567
00:27:29.820 --> 00:27:33.840
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
568
00:27:33.840 --> 00:27:36.810
and Lord. Wash away my sin
569
00:27:36.810 --> 00:27:39.840
and make me completely new.
570
00:27:39.840 --> 00:27:43.650
I thank you that my sin is removed
571
00:27:43.650 --> 00:27:48.650
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
572
00:27:49.170 --> 00:27:53.160
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
573
00:27:53.160 --> 00:27:54.840
for the rest of my life.
574
00:27:55.740 --> 00:28:00.300
Amen. If you just prayed
the prayer of salvation
575
00:28:00.300 --> 00:28:03.000
with us, would you please
let us know by going
576
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:06.000
