00:00:01.440 --> 00:00:04.140 line:15%
This program is made
possible by the giving
2
00:00:04.140 --> 00:00:08.190 line:15%
of the God called partners
of Renner Ministries.
3
00:00:08.190 --> 00:00:11.430 line:15%
Get ready for a teaching
that feeds your spirit
4
00:00:11.430 --> 00:00:15.000 line:15%
and your mind, where the
word is the anchor in
5
00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:16.980 line:15%
uncertain times
6
00:00:16.980 --> 00:00:20.250 line:15%
and doctrine doesn't bend to culture.
7
00:00:20.250 --> 00:00:21.690 line:15%
We keep it simple,
8
00:00:21.690 --> 00:00:26.280 line:15%
but dive deep revealing a
truth that strengthens us,
9
00:00:27.150 --> 00:00:29.040 line:15%
a love that emboldens,
10
00:00:30.180 --> 00:00:32.310 line:15%
and a mission that touches the world.
11
00:00:34.650 --> 00:00:36.210 line:15%
Let's join Rick Renner.
12
00:00:38.310 --> 00:00:41.250 line:15%
Welcome to today's program. My friend today
13
00:00:41.250 --> 00:00:44.970 line:15%
and tomorrow are the last in this series called, Everything
14
00:00:44.970 --> 00:00:47.640 line:15%
You Need to Know About Healing.
15
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.910 line:15%
It is a 10 part series that
comes with a study guide,
16
00:00:50.910 --> 00:00:53.940 line:15%
and everything in the program
is also in the study guide
17
00:00:53.940 --> 00:00:56.820 line:15%
so you can read all the
material while you are seeing
18
00:00:56.820 --> 00:00:58.530 line:15%
or hearing the series.
19
00:00:58.530 --> 00:01:01.020 line:15%
And I'm also really
excited about my new book
20
00:01:01.020 --> 00:01:02.580 line:15%
by the same title, Everything You
21
00:01:02.580 --> 00:01:04.050 line:15%
Need To Know About Healing.
22
00:01:04.050 --> 00:01:05.880 line:15%
And in this book I wrote it from the view
23
00:01:05.880 --> 00:01:08.940 line:15%
of a pastor who's answering the questions
24
00:01:08.940 --> 00:01:11.190 line:15%
of his congregation about
why some are healed,
25
00:01:11.190 --> 00:01:12.240 line:15%
why some are not healed,
26
00:01:12.240 --> 00:01:14.430 line:15%
Everything You Need To Know About Healing.
27
00:01:14.430 --> 00:01:15.900 line:15%
I believe it is one
28
00:01:15.900 --> 00:01:18.840 line:15%
of the most complete books
ever written on this subject.
29
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:22.350 line:15%
And I'm also really excited
about Mike Clark's book called
30
00:01:22.350 --> 00:01:24.570 line:15%
There's a Light at the End of Your Tunnel.
31
00:01:24.570 --> 00:01:26.760 line:15%
And it's his testimony about
32
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:30.630 line:15%
how he walked from a cancer
diagnosis into healing
33
00:01:30.630 --> 00:01:34.650 line:15%
and health, all the steps
that he took, how he dealt
34
00:01:34.650 --> 00:01:36.480 line:15%
with fear and unbelief
35
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:38.970 line:15%
until finally he stepped into the healing
36
00:01:38.970 --> 00:01:41.100 line:15%
that Jesus purchased for him on the cross.
37
00:01:41.100 --> 00:01:43.440 line:15%
He knew cancer was not God's will
38
00:01:43.440 --> 00:01:45.390 line:15%
and he walked right into healing.
39
00:01:45.390 --> 00:01:47.520 line:15%
And that testimony is so powerful.
40
00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:50.250 line:15%
I asked if I could write
the far word for it,
41
00:01:50.250 --> 00:01:52.920 line:15%
and I know it will encourage
you or somebody else,
42
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:56.010 line:15%
but you can find out about all
these things by going online
43
00:01:56.010 --> 00:01:57.210 line:15%
or by giving us a call.
44
00:01:57.210 --> 00:02:00.300 line:15%
And today and tomorrow are the last days
45
00:02:00.300 --> 00:02:04.260 line:15%
that we're giving you for free this - Healing Scriptures
46
00:02:04.260 --> 00:02:06.600 line:15%
for Meditation and Confession.
47
00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:08.430 line:15%
It's beautifully designed
48
00:02:08.430 --> 00:02:09.690 line:15%
and it's made in such a way
49
00:02:09.690 --> 00:02:11.760 line:15%
that you can put it on the
mirror in your bathroom
50
00:02:11.760 --> 00:02:13.410 line:15%
or in your bedroom,
51
00:02:13.410 --> 00:02:16.890 line:15%
or you can put it on the refrigerator in some visible place.
52
00:02:16.890 --> 00:02:19.920 line:15%
And every day you can go
through these scriptures.
53
00:02:19.920 --> 00:02:23.610 line:15%
If you have time, you can
declare these confessions over
54
00:02:23.610 --> 00:02:25.590 line:15%
yourself and over your family.
55
00:02:25.590 --> 00:02:29.490 line:15%
These are healing scriptures from meditation and confession.
56
00:02:29.490 --> 00:02:31.823 line:15%
And we did this just for you because we really want you
57
00:02:32.730 --> 00:02:35.790 line:15%
to have these verses in front of you.
58
00:02:35.790 --> 00:02:38.970 line:15%
But you can get yours right now by going online
59
00:02:38.970 --> 00:02:40.740 line:15%
and just downloading yours.
60
00:02:40.740 --> 00:02:43.200 line:15%
Or if you wish we would be happy
61
00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:45.000 line:15%
to send you one, but
you gotta let us know.
62
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:47.640 line:15%
So call the number on this
screen or send us an email
63
00:02:47.640 --> 00:02:49.440 line:15%
and we'll get it right to you.
64
00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:51.900 line:15%
And please let us know how to pray for you
65
00:02:51.900 --> 00:02:54.000 line:15%
because we're already praying for you.
66
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:56.820 line:15%
And right now we're
really focused on praying
67
00:02:56.820 --> 00:03:00.010 line:15%
for people's physical,
emotional and mental issues.
68
00:03:00.010 --> 00:03:01.930 line:15%
And if you're dealing with anything in any realm
69
00:03:01.930 --> 00:03:05.260 line:15%
of your being and you feel like you need somebody to agree
70
00:03:05.260 --> 00:03:07.750 line:15%
with you in prayer, here we are.
71
00:03:07.750 --> 00:03:10.000 line:15%
Call us or send us an email.
72
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:13.150 line:15%
We will pray scripturally,
God will hear us,
73
00:03:13.150 --> 00:03:15.790 line:15%
and Jesus will do what
needs to be done in you.
74
00:03:15.790 --> 00:03:19.540 line:15%
He already paid the
ultimate price on the cross
75
00:03:19.540 --> 00:03:21.490 line:15%
for your healing and your health.
76
00:03:21.490 --> 00:03:24.940 line:15%
So we would love to pray
for you to step into it.
77
00:03:24.940 --> 00:03:27.040 line:15%
But hey, I want you to
reach for your Bible
78
00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:28.750 line:15%
and today we're gonna move on
79
00:03:28.750 --> 00:03:30.880 line:15%
and we're going to see how to stay strong
80
00:03:30.880 --> 00:03:35.410 line:15%
and healthy as you age,
81
00:03:35.410 --> 00:03:36.550 line:15%
as you age.
82
00:03:37.420 --> 00:03:39.970 line:15%
In 1 Thessalonians 4:4,
83
00:03:39.970 --> 00:03:43.570 line:15%
the apostle Paul writes these words - That every one
84
00:03:43.570 --> 00:03:46.120 line:15%
of you should know how
85
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.360 line:15%
to possess his vessel in sanctification
86
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:52.570 line:15%
and in honor. The word vessel,
87
00:03:52.570 --> 00:03:57.310 line:15%
the Greek word, skeuos, is a
metaphor for the human body.
88
00:03:57.310 --> 00:04:00.190 line:15%
This word....pictures the body
89
00:04:00.190 --> 00:04:03.250 line:15%
as a finely crafted tool.
90
00:04:03.250 --> 00:04:06.580 line:15%
When I was growing up, my dad
had a two car garage and oh,
91
00:04:06.580 --> 00:04:09.010 line:15%
how he loved his garage.
92
00:04:09.010 --> 00:04:13.120 line:15%
And his garage was like a museum of tools.
93
00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.310 line:15%
My daddy had everything.
94
00:04:15.310 --> 00:04:19.150 line:15%
But I noticed through the years that if dad had a tool
95
00:04:19.150 --> 00:04:21.610 line:15%
that just laid there on the counter and he never touched it
96
00:04:21.610 --> 00:04:23.170 line:15%
and he never used it,
97
00:04:23.170 --> 00:04:26.410 line:15%
even though it was in a climate controlled environment,
98
00:04:26.410 --> 00:04:29.650 line:15%
eventually that tool would begin to corrode,
99
00:04:29.650 --> 00:04:31.990 line:15%
it would begin to rust and it would no longer be usable.
100
00:04:31.990 --> 00:04:34.510 line:15%
And I always wondered,
how is that possible?
101
00:04:34.510 --> 00:04:36.130 line:15%
It's in a climate controlled room,
102
00:04:36.130 --> 00:04:39.220 line:15%
but yet if you don't use the tools,
103
00:04:39.220 --> 00:04:43.090 line:15%
eventually they become unusable.
104
00:04:43.090 --> 00:04:44.830 line:15%
And that's very important for us
105
00:04:44.830 --> 00:04:47.620 line:15%
to understand in regard to our body.
106
00:04:47.620 --> 00:04:50.320 line:15%
When Paul says our vessel,
he's talking about our body
107
00:04:50.320 --> 00:04:53.020 line:15%
and he's likening our body to a tool.
108
00:04:53.020 --> 00:04:54.640 line:15%
Our bodies are instruments.
109
00:04:54.640 --> 00:04:56.860 line:15%
That's what the word vessel means.
110
00:04:56.860 --> 00:04:59.920 line:15%
Listen to this - Paul likened your body
111
00:04:59.920 --> 00:05:02.200 line:15%
to a finely tuned instrument, one
112
00:05:02.200 --> 00:05:04.330 line:15%
that demands both your care
113
00:05:04.330 --> 00:05:08.500 line:15%
and constant use to maintain
its symphonic potential.
114
00:05:08.500 --> 00:05:10.510 line:15%
Here's another way to think about it.
115
00:05:10.510 --> 00:05:13.510 line:15%
Instead of a tool in the
garage, picture your body
116
00:05:13.510 --> 00:05:18.510 line:15%
as a grand piano in a silent
climate controlled room.
117
00:05:18.520 --> 00:05:21.130 line:15%
Despite the perfect conditions, neglect of
118
00:05:21.130 --> 00:05:23.860 line:15%
that piano leads it to gather dust
119
00:05:23.860 --> 00:05:27.580 line:15%
and to lose its resonant voice. Without movement
120
00:05:27.580 --> 00:05:28.840 line:15%
or nourishment,
121
00:05:28.840 --> 00:05:33.840 line:15%
the body like a piano, risks falling into disrepair.
122
00:05:33.940 --> 00:05:36.550 line:15%
It's once harmonious functions becoming
123
00:05:36.550 --> 00:05:38.860 line:15%
discordant and frail.
124
00:05:38.860 --> 00:05:40.570 line:15%
In all of God's creation,
125
00:05:40.570 --> 00:05:44.650 line:15%
the human body stands
unrivaled in its brilliance,
126
00:05:44.650 --> 00:05:47.620 line:15%
yet its splendor requires diligence
127
00:05:47.620 --> 00:05:50.260 line:15%
and devotion to remain vibrant.
128
00:05:50.260 --> 00:05:52.750 line:15%
To disregard this necessity is
129
00:05:52.750 --> 00:05:57.750 line:15%
to invite a slow inevitable
dissent into deterioration.
130
00:05:58.280 --> 00:06:01.130 line:15%
You might find yourself less
than thrilled, for example,
131
00:06:01.130 --> 00:06:04.070 line:15%
by the idea of savoring balanced meals
132
00:06:04.070 --> 00:06:06.110 line:15%
or cutting down on portion sizes
133
00:06:06.110 --> 00:06:08.930 line:15%
or breaking a sweat with exercise.
134
00:06:08.930 --> 00:06:13.130 line:15%
Yet skipping these habits is like ignoring the mounting
135
00:06:13.130 --> 00:06:16.820 line:15%
interest on a debt that becomes overwhelming in the future.
136
00:06:16.820 --> 00:06:19.550 line:15%
If you don't do it later, you'll be sorry
137
00:06:19.550 --> 00:06:24.200 line:15%
because the price tag of negligence far outweighs the effort
138
00:06:24.200 --> 00:06:26.330 line:15%
that you should have made earlier.
139
00:06:26.330 --> 00:06:28.550 line:15%
When you prioritize your body's care,
140
00:06:28.550 --> 00:06:32.240 line:15%
you're giving yourself a gift for the future.
141
00:06:32.240 --> 00:06:34.850 line:15%
And as the pages of time turn,
142
00:06:34.850 --> 00:06:37.700 line:15%
it becomes increasingly important to nurture
143
00:06:37.700 --> 00:06:39.830 line:15%
and maintain your body's engine
144
00:06:39.830 --> 00:06:44.830 line:15%
and to ensure it runs smoothly for years to come.
145
00:06:45.140 --> 00:06:48.050 line:15%
Now, if you're a little older, you're probably saying
146
00:06:48.050 --> 00:06:53.030 line:15%
Oh me, or Amen. You know that is the truth.
147
00:06:53.030 --> 00:06:55.490 line:15%
We've gotta take care of our bodies.
148
00:06:55.490 --> 00:06:58.310 line:15%
But then in 1 Thessalonians 4:4, Paul continues
149
00:06:58.310 --> 00:07:01.160 line:15%
to say that every one of you should know how
150
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:04.100 line:15%
to possess his vessel in sanctification
151
00:07:04.100 --> 00:07:05.270 line:15%
and in honor. The words,
152
00:07:05.270 --> 00:07:08.930 line:15%
everyone, in Greek is the word, hekagtos.
153
00:07:08.930 --> 00:07:11.750 line:15%
It means every one of you without exception
154
00:07:11.750 --> 00:07:14.300 line:15%
and it highlights the universal relevance
155
00:07:14.300 --> 00:07:17.180 line:15%
of this instruction, which
means it's meant for all
156
00:07:17.180 --> 00:07:19.730 line:15%
and that means you included.
157
00:07:19.730 --> 00:07:20.840 line:15%
So what we're reading
158
00:07:20.840 --> 00:07:23.960 line:15%
and studying in this verse
has application to you.
159
00:07:23.960 --> 00:07:25.700 line:15%
It's for you.
160
00:07:25.700 --> 00:07:28.308 line:15%
And he goes on to say that you should know.
161
00:07:28.308 --> 00:07:29.383 line:15%
The word, know, is
162
00:07:29.383 --> 00:07:30.710 line:15%
the Greek word, eido.
163
00:07:30.710 --> 00:07:33.920 line:15%
This word, eido, means to be aware or to perceive.
164
00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.440 line:15%
And in this verse, it conveys the essence
165
00:07:36.440 --> 00:07:39.200 line:15%
of having a personal awareness of how
166
00:07:39.200 --> 00:07:42.290 line:15%
to possess his vessel.
167
00:07:42.290 --> 00:07:46.070 line:15%
The word possess suggests control
168
00:07:46.070 --> 00:07:47.510 line:15%
or management.
169
00:07:47.510 --> 00:07:50.900 line:15%
Hence the verse means that every one of you,
170
00:07:50.900 --> 00:07:54.770 line:15%
without exception should
become aware of how to control
171
00:07:54.770 --> 00:07:56.930 line:15%
and manage his body.
172
00:07:56.930 --> 00:08:00.440 line:15%
The verse conveys that every
single person should gain
173
00:08:00.440 --> 00:08:03.650 line:15%
awareness of how to govern
and manage their own body.
174
00:08:03.650 --> 00:08:07.280 line:15%
And Paul calls on each believer, each believer,
175
00:08:07.280 --> 00:08:09.890 line:15%
to cultivate a personal understanding
176
00:08:09.890 --> 00:08:13.280 line:15%
and mastery over the body entrusted to them by God.
177
00:08:13.280 --> 00:08:17.030 line:15%
And this underscores a divine stewardship
178
00:08:17.030 --> 00:08:21.020 line:15%
and responsibility for one's
mental and physical self.
179
00:08:22.670 --> 00:08:26.720 line:15%
All of that is in this word - possess. My friends,
180
00:08:26.720 --> 00:08:29.240 line:15%
God has given you stewardship
over your instrument.
181
00:08:29.240 --> 00:08:31.010 line:15%
This is your instrument.
182
00:08:31.010 --> 00:08:32.630 line:15%
And the verse goes on to say you're
183
00:08:32.630 --> 00:08:35.390 line:15%
to possess it in sanctification
184
00:08:35.390 --> 00:08:36.560 line:15%
and honor. What does that mean -
185
00:08:36.560 --> 00:08:39.680 line:15%
sanctification and honor? The word, sanctification,
186
00:08:39.680 --> 00:08:42.710 line:15%
the form of the Greek word hagiasmos.
187
00:08:42.710 --> 00:08:46.160 line:15%
It refers to something set apart by God for sacred purposes,
188
00:08:46.160 --> 00:08:48.110 line:15%
implying that it's holy and special
189
00:08:48.110 --> 00:08:50.660 line:15%
and tells us that in God's view, the body
190
00:08:50.660 --> 00:08:53.540 line:15%
of a believer is holy and special.
191
00:08:53.540 --> 00:08:56.070 line:15%
That's how you are to see yourself.
192
00:08:56.070 --> 00:08:57.270 line:15%
But it also goes on to say,
193
00:08:57.270 --> 00:09:00.090 line:15%
and in honor. What does the word - honor - mean?
194
00:09:00.090 --> 00:09:03.180 line:15%
The word honor is the form of the Greek word 'time'.
195
00:09:03.180 --> 00:09:05.490 line:15%
It describes immense worth.
196
00:09:05.490 --> 00:09:08.160 line:15%
Hence, Paul encourages everyone
197
00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:11.130 line:15%
to develop personal consciousness in governing
198
00:09:11.130 --> 00:09:12.900 line:15%
and tending to our bodies
199
00:09:12.900 --> 00:09:16.560 line:15%
and their recognize that our
bodies are holy and special
200
00:09:16.560 --> 00:09:19.350 line:15%
and that God has set them
aside for his purposes
201
00:09:19.350 --> 00:09:23.010 line:15%
and that our bodies are
very, very valuable.
202
00:09:24.030 --> 00:09:26.250 line:15%
So I want to ask you - How are you treating your body?
203
00:09:27.150 --> 00:09:28.590 line:15%
Are you treating it like rubbish?
204
00:09:28.590 --> 00:09:30.210 line:15%
Are you pouring garbage into your body
205
00:09:30.210 --> 00:09:33.990 line:15%
or are you treating your body
like it is something holy
206
00:09:33.990 --> 00:09:36.630 line:15%
and something of immense value?
207
00:09:36.630 --> 00:09:39.210 line:15%
Please hear this.
208
00:09:39.210 --> 00:09:41.730 line:15%
If you're already in your senior years
209
00:09:41.730 --> 00:09:44.940 line:15%
and you acknowledge that
you've made mistakes in caring
210
00:09:44.940 --> 00:09:49.560 line:15%
for your body, it's not too
late to make a recovery.
211
00:09:49.560 --> 00:09:53.640 line:15%
Christ redemptive work on
the cross includes your
212
00:09:53.640 --> 00:09:55.470 line:15%
healing and health.
213
00:09:55.470 --> 00:09:58.410 line:15%
And if you will apply what
you have learned about how
214
00:09:58.410 --> 00:09:59.730 line:15%
to appropriate healing
215
00:09:59.730 --> 00:10:03.060 line:15%
and health, it is
entirely possible for you
216
00:10:03.060 --> 00:10:06.600 line:15%
to experience a turnaround in your body.
217
00:10:06.600 --> 00:10:08.610 line:15%
Don't let your body become like a rusty
218
00:10:08.610 --> 00:10:10.920 line:15%
and unusable tool in the garage
219
00:10:10.920 --> 00:10:15.000 line:15%
or discordant like a piano
that's been ignored for too long.
220
00:10:15.000 --> 00:10:18.810 line:15%
If you've made past mistakes,
consider this moment
221
00:10:18.810 --> 00:10:20.610 line:15%
as a fresh start.
222
00:10:20.610 --> 00:10:22.710 line:15%
Utilize what God has given you
223
00:10:22.710 --> 00:10:26.310 line:15%
and maintain it well so
your body can serve you
224
00:10:26.310 --> 00:10:28.320 line:15%
for a lifetime.
225
00:10:28.320 --> 00:10:30.660 line:15%
If you do not self-correct,
226
00:10:30.660 --> 00:10:34.110 line:15%
then when the enemy exploits
these weaknesses in your body,
227
00:10:34.110 --> 00:10:36.990 line:15%
it will be you that must acknowledge
228
00:10:36.990 --> 00:10:38.700 line:15%
that neglecting your health
229
00:10:38.700 --> 00:10:42.690 line:15%
provided an entry point for
attacks against your health.
230
00:10:42.690 --> 00:10:47.190 line:15%
You have a key role to play in staying in shape.
231
00:10:48.540 --> 00:10:50.460 line:15%
My friends, that's just the truth.
232
00:10:50.460 --> 00:10:53.100 line:15%
That is common sense.
233
00:10:53.100 --> 00:10:57.570 line:15%
I would not be fair if all I
did was teach you principles
234
00:10:57.570 --> 00:11:00.720 line:15%
of faith and not also address the need for you
235
00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:02.670 line:15%
to use common sense.
236
00:11:02.670 --> 00:11:05.670 line:15%
And if you've made mistakes with your health along the way,
237
00:11:05.670 --> 00:11:09.060 line:15%
admit it. We're told in 1 John 1:9,
238
00:11:09.060 --> 00:11:13.440 line:15%
that if we confess our sin, our shortcomings, our mistakes;
239
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:15.690 line:15%
if we confess our sin, he is faithful
240
00:11:15.690 --> 00:11:17.280 line:15%
and just to forgive us of our sin
241
00:11:17.280 --> 00:11:19.500 line:15%
and to cleanse us from
all unrighteousness.
242
00:11:19.500 --> 00:11:22.500 line:15%
And that confession of sin
can be your starting point
243
00:11:22.500 --> 00:11:24.330 line:15%
to turn things around.
244
00:11:24.330 --> 00:11:27.210 line:15%
Now, I want to give you
my personal testimony.
245
00:11:27.210 --> 00:11:31.650 line:15%
For years and years and
years, I sabotaged my health.
246
00:11:31.650 --> 00:11:35.940 line:15%
I did everything wrong
you could do believing
247
00:11:35.940 --> 00:11:37.560 line:15%
it would have no impact on me.
248
00:11:37.560 --> 00:11:39.690 line:15%
I didn't think I needed
to care for my body.
249
00:11:39.690 --> 00:11:41.640 line:15%
I didn't think I needed to exercise.
250
00:11:41.640 --> 00:11:45.150 line:15%
I didn't think that I
needed to take vitamins.
251
00:11:45.150 --> 00:11:47.310 line:15%
I just didn't take any of that serious.
252
00:11:47.310 --> 00:11:49.620 line:15%
I kind of felt like I was invincible
253
00:11:49.620 --> 00:11:54.160 line:15%
and what happened to others
was not going to happen to me.
254
00:11:54.160 --> 00:11:56.590 line:15%
Well, hey friend, this is my instrument.
255
00:11:56.590 --> 00:11:59.320 line:15%
This is the tool, the
vessel that God gave me.
256
00:11:59.320 --> 00:12:02.710 line:15%
Imagine that you get a brand new car.
257
00:12:02.710 --> 00:12:04.090 line:15%
You know when you have a brand new car,
258
00:12:04.090 --> 00:12:09.090 line:15%
it just runs spectacularly: everything is fine.
259
00:12:09.400 --> 00:12:14.320 line:15%
But as the miles and the
kilometers roll by and roll by
260
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:15.460 line:15%
and roll by
261
00:12:15.460 --> 00:12:20.410 line:15%
and roll by, if you don't
put air in the tires,
262
00:12:20.410 --> 00:12:22.360 line:15%
you're gonna end up with a flat.
263
00:12:23.260 --> 00:12:27.220 line:15%
Now you can just say, I'm
just gonna release my faith
264
00:12:27.220 --> 00:12:29.350 line:15%
that I don't need to ever
put airs in my tires -
265
00:12:29.350 --> 00:12:30.670 line:15%
but my friend, would you do that?
266
00:12:30.670 --> 00:12:35.020 line:15%
Of course not. You know that the tires of your car need air.
267
00:12:35.020 --> 00:12:36.190 line:15%
Or let's say
268
00:12:37.870 --> 00:12:38.703 line:15%
that your car's running low on oil but you say -
269
00:12:38.703 --> 00:12:39.536 line:15%
You know what?
270
00:12:40.390 --> 00:12:41.655 line:15%
I'm just gonna use my faith
271
00:12:41.655 --> 00:12:43.330 line:15%
and I'm gonna believe that
272
00:12:43.330 --> 00:12:45.430 line:15%
that oil in my engine is just gonna be
273
00:12:45.430 --> 00:12:47.425 line:15%
supernaturally replenished.
274
00:12:47.425 --> 00:12:49.120 line:15%
Why don't you treat your car that way?
275
00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:51.040 line:15%
Because you know you gotta put oil in your car
276
00:12:51.040 --> 00:12:54.220 line:15%
if your car is low on oil. In the same way,
277
00:12:54.220 --> 00:12:56.380 line:15%
if your body is low on
vitamins, then you need
278
00:12:56.380 --> 00:12:57.760 line:15%
to take supplements,
279
00:12:57.760 --> 00:13:00.580 line:15%
treat your body like it is an instrument.
280
00:13:00.580 --> 00:13:04.150 line:15%
If you're running out of gas,
if you're running out of fuel,
281
00:13:04.150 --> 00:13:06.370 line:15%
you can run on fumes for a while.
282
00:13:06.370 --> 00:13:09.130 line:15%
But if you don't put fuel
in the tank, I don't care
283
00:13:09.130 --> 00:13:10.450 line:15%
how good the car is
284
00:13:10.450 --> 00:13:12.040 line:15%
and how good it's been in the past,
285
00:13:12.040 --> 00:13:16.000 line:15%
you're gonna run outta gas. You gotta take care of the car,
286
00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:18.760 line:15%
you gotta take care of your instrument
287
00:13:18.760 --> 00:13:23.535 line:15%
if you want it to keep running in good shape. That's
288
00:13:23.535 --> 00:13:25.750 line:15%
how you need to deal with your body.
289
00:13:25.750 --> 00:13:29.500 line:15%
So as the years went by, when I got into my late 50's,
290
00:13:29.500 --> 00:13:31.690 line:15%
I realized - Rick Renner - you're in trouble.
291
00:13:31.690 --> 00:13:35.620 line:15%
You're overweight, you are
not fit, you don't exercise,
292
00:13:35.620 --> 00:13:37.180 line:15%
you're dealing with high blood pressure,
293
00:13:37.180 --> 00:13:39.490 line:15%
you're falling all the time.
294
00:13:39.490 --> 00:13:41.140 line:15%
And you know what? I could have screamed.
295
00:13:41.140 --> 00:13:43.180 line:15%
The devil was after me, and surely he was.
296
00:13:43.180 --> 00:13:47.380 line:15%
But I opened to the door through self-sabotage.
297
00:13:47.380 --> 00:13:50.290 line:15%
So 1st of all, I had to begin a process to lose weight.
298
00:13:50.290 --> 00:13:51.460 line:15%
And if you need to lose weight, I have
299
00:13:51.460 --> 00:13:52.570 line:15%
no condemnation of you.
300
00:13:52.570 --> 00:13:53.740 line:15%
I've been there, I've done that.
301
00:13:53.740 --> 00:13:55.060 line:15%
I understand it completely,
302
00:13:55.060 --> 00:13:57.940 line:15%
and I still work regularly on my weight.
303
00:13:57.940 --> 00:14:02.380 line:15%
And though I despised exercise, I begin to go
304
00:14:02.380 --> 00:14:04.870 line:15%
to the gym 3-times a weekend, still do.
305
00:14:04.870 --> 00:14:06.055 line:15%
And now I love it.
306
00:14:06.055 --> 00:14:08.740 line:15%
It just takes an hour
every time that I go.
307
00:14:08.740 --> 00:14:11.860 line:15%
But when I'm finished exercising, I feel so much better
308
00:14:11.860 --> 00:14:13.960 line:15%
and I feel victorious.
309
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.660 line:15%
And I began to take supplements.
310
00:14:16.660 --> 00:14:18.940 line:15%
I grew up in a home where
we took no vitamins at all.
311
00:14:18.940 --> 00:14:21.250 line:15%
The only vitamins I ever remembered taking
312
00:14:21.250 --> 00:14:24.850 line:15%
as a child we're Flintstone vitamins.
313
00:14:24.850 --> 00:14:26.500 line:15%
That's what we took at our house
314
00:14:26.500 --> 00:14:28.690 line:15%
for a very brief period of time.
315
00:14:28.690 --> 00:14:32.800 line:15%
But you know what? Just
like a car runs low on oil,
316
00:14:32.800 --> 00:14:34.630 line:15%
sometimes as you get older you begin
317
00:14:34.630 --> 00:14:37.540 line:15%
to deplete the nutrients in your body
318
00:14:37.540 --> 00:14:39.670 line:15%
and you need to take supplements.
319
00:14:39.670 --> 00:14:41.680 line:15%
And I want to tell you that every year I have a
320
00:14:41.680 --> 00:14:43.540 line:15%
comprehensive health exam.
321
00:14:43.540 --> 00:14:45.310 line:15%
I go for an annual checkup
322
00:14:45.310 --> 00:14:48.220 line:15%
and my friends that does not show a lack of faith.
323
00:14:48.220 --> 00:14:50.320 line:15%
I'm just going to see what part of my car,
324
00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:52.730 line:15%
my instrument needs to be replenished.
325
00:14:52.730 --> 00:14:54.440 line:15%
And I always go with faith.
326
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:55.790 line:15%
And not only that, Denise
327
00:14:55.790 --> 00:14:58.070 line:15%
and I regularly go to the dentist
328
00:14:58.070 --> 00:15:00.170 line:15%
to make sure our teeth are in good shape.
329
00:15:00.170 --> 00:15:02.870 line:15%
We're constantly getting
everything checked out.
330
00:15:02.870 --> 00:15:06.110 line:15%
Not long ago I went to say an eye doctor
331
00:15:06.110 --> 00:15:07.550 line:15%
and he said to me - Mr.
332
00:15:07.550 --> 00:15:09.500 line:15%
Renner, you're forming a cataract.
333
00:15:09.500 --> 00:15:10.760 line:15%
You need to get rid of a cataract.
334
00:15:10.760 --> 00:15:14.360 line:15%
I couldn't believe he said the word cataract to me.
335
00:15:14.360 --> 00:15:17.840 line:15%
But you know, if I'm driving my car
336
00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:20.960 line:15%
and my windshield wipers are faulty,
337
00:15:20.960 --> 00:15:22.730 line:15%
I don't just believe God for them to work,
338
00:15:22.730 --> 00:15:25.070 line:15%
I get new windshield wipers.
339
00:15:25.070 --> 00:15:28.580 line:15%
So very quickly I said to the
doctor, schedule a procedure
340
00:15:28.580 --> 00:15:30.200 line:15%
and I had the cataract removed,
341
00:15:30.200 --> 00:15:34.160 line:15%
had new lenses put in my eyes, using my faith,
342
00:15:34.160 --> 00:15:35.540 line:15%
using my faith.
343
00:15:35.540 --> 00:15:37.790 line:15%
That's not discounting faith.
344
00:15:37.790 --> 00:15:40.010 line:15%
I'm using my faith for every step along the way.
345
00:15:40.010 --> 00:15:44.540 line:15%
I believe in using every single tool in the toolbox:
346
00:15:44.540 --> 00:15:46.910 line:15%
the promises of God, the power of God,
347
00:15:46.910 --> 00:15:49.100 line:15%
and anything else that we need to use
348
00:15:49.100 --> 00:15:51.770 line:15%
to keep the devil at bay.
349
00:15:51.770 --> 00:15:53.450 line:15%
I really believe that my friends.
350
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:57.950 line:15%
And if you need a chiropractic visit, then go get
351
00:15:57.950 --> 00:16:00.710 line:15%
a tuneup; that's good for your body.
352
00:16:00.710 --> 00:16:02.780 line:15%
There's nothing wrong with any of this.
353
00:16:02.780 --> 00:16:05.000 line:15%
You need to use your faith,
354
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:06.770 line:15%
whether you're in the doctor's office
355
00:16:06.770 --> 00:16:11.000 line:15%
or out of the doctor's office,
your faith is the same.
356
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:14.750 line:15%
And I want you to remember
that as you are getting older,
357
00:16:14.750 --> 00:16:19.160 line:15%
do not forget 1 John 5:4 says,
358
00:16:19.160 --> 00:16:21.770 line:15%
Whatever is born of God.
359
00:16:21.770 --> 00:16:23.990 line:15%
If you're child of God, it means you.
360
00:16:23.990 --> 00:16:27.740 line:15%
Whatever is born of God overcometh the world.
361
00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:30.440 line:15%
And this is the victory that overcometh the world,
362
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:33.020 line:15%
even our faith. The word world describes the world
363
00:16:33.020 --> 00:16:36.260 line:15%
and everything in it that
would mean human frailties.
364
00:16:36.260 --> 00:16:38.870 line:15%
As you get older, you've got
a faith that can overcome it.
365
00:16:38.870 --> 00:16:41.420 line:15%
And the word overcome is the Greek word, nikao.
366
00:16:43.430 --> 00:16:46.670 line:15%
This word appears twice in this verse,
367
00:16:46.670 --> 00:16:49.640 line:15%
but actually it's repeated three times
368
00:16:49.640 --> 00:16:52.490 line:15%
because the word victory is the same Greek word.
369
00:16:52.490 --> 00:16:56.540 line:15%
And in each instance it means to conquer, to overcome,
370
00:16:56.540 --> 00:16:58.220 line:15%
to prevail or to have victory.
371
00:16:58.220 --> 00:17:02.210 line:15%
And that means you're even to
conquer, overcome, prevail,
372
00:17:02.210 --> 00:17:06.080 line:15%
and have victory over your
body as you get older.
373
00:17:06.080 --> 00:17:09.050 line:15%
But if you cooperate by taking care of your body
374
00:17:09.050 --> 00:17:12.041 line:15%
you're gonna stay stronger and healthy all the way
375
00:17:12.041 --> 00:17:13.370 line:15%
to the end.
376
00:17:13.370 --> 00:17:14.810 line:15%
I want to give you an example.
377
00:17:14.810 --> 00:17:17.300 line:15%
Denise and I have two precious friends
378
00:17:17.300 --> 00:17:18.560 line:15%
and they're getting older
379
00:17:18.560 --> 00:17:20.990 line:15%
and they've had some
attacks in their health.
380
00:17:20.990 --> 00:17:22.610 line:15%
But rather than throw in the towel
381
00:17:22.610 --> 00:17:26.570 line:15%
and just say, well, we're
old, they have said no,
382
00:17:26.570 --> 00:17:28.460 line:15%
Jesus died for us to be healthy
383
00:17:28.460 --> 00:17:31.550 line:15%
to the end. One of them ended up in a chair
384
00:17:31.550 --> 00:17:34.130 line:15%
and the doctor said, this chair probably is going
385
00:17:34.130 --> 00:17:35.330 line:15%
to be your future.
386
00:17:35.330 --> 00:17:36.680 line:15%
This is your destiny.
387
00:17:36.680 --> 00:17:39.590 line:15%
And she said, Hey, don't you ever say that to me again.
388
00:17:39.590 --> 00:17:41.330 line:15%
Finally, she began walking with a walker
389
00:17:41.330 --> 00:17:42.500 line:15%
and the nurse said, you're gonna walk
390
00:17:42.500 --> 00:17:43.730 line:15%
with this for the rest of your life.
391
00:17:43.730 --> 00:17:46.490 line:15%
She said to that nurse, don't
you ever say that to me again?
392
00:17:46.490 --> 00:17:48.830 line:15%
And now she's completely
free of both of them.
393
00:17:48.830 --> 00:17:52.530 line:15%
She's driving, she's walking, she's fine.
394
00:17:52.530 --> 00:17:55.050 line:15%
Her husband also
struggled with his health.
395
00:17:55.050 --> 00:17:58.470 line:15%
My goodness, he refuses to surrender
396
00:17:58.470 --> 00:18:02.340 line:15%
because he believes in the
price that Jesus paid for him
397
00:18:02.340 --> 00:18:04.620 line:15%
to be whole and healthy.
398
00:18:04.620 --> 00:18:07.695 line:15%
It's amazing. But hey, you've got
399
00:18:07.695 --> 00:18:09.810 line:15%
to have a winning mentality.
400
00:18:09.810 --> 00:18:12.210 line:15%
You've got to say, I have
a faith that overcomes
401
00:18:12.210 --> 00:18:15.090 line:15%
and I'm gonna overcome and
I'm gonna walk in healing
402
00:18:15.090 --> 00:18:17.220 line:15%
and health to their end.
403
00:18:17.220 --> 00:18:22.200 line:15%
And not only that, Psalm 91:16 says,
404
00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:25.500 line:15%
With long life, will I satisfy him
405
00:18:25.500 --> 00:18:27.840 line:15%
and show him my salvation.
406
00:18:27.840 --> 00:18:32.220 line:15%
The word long in the Hebrew implies longevity
407
00:18:32.220 --> 00:18:36.780 line:15%
or a life that stretches
generously over a time.
408
00:18:36.780 --> 00:18:39.870 line:15%
The word life denotes days
409
00:18:39.870 --> 00:18:44.430 line:15%
and as a phrase, the words long life depicts long days
410
00:18:44.430 --> 00:18:46.470 line:15%
or a very, very long life.
411
00:18:46.470 --> 00:18:51.150 line:15%
And if you need a scripture
for longevity, here it is.
412
00:18:51.150 --> 00:18:52.710 line:15%
He said, well, how long can I live?
413
00:18:52.710 --> 00:18:55.380 line:15%
Well, the verse says until you're satisfied: with long life
414
00:18:55.380 --> 00:18:57.960 line:15%
will I satisfy him.
415
00:18:59.130 --> 00:19:00.570 line:15%
What does the word satisfy mean?
416
00:19:01.650 --> 00:19:05.130 line:15%
The Hebrew word for satisfy means to have enough of,
417
00:19:05.130 --> 00:19:09.960 line:15%
to have plenty of or to be fully satisfied.
418
00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:13.140 line:15%
Thus, if you want a verse for longevity,
419
00:19:13.140 --> 00:19:17.250 line:15%
Psalm 91:16 is God's promise that you can live
420
00:19:17.250 --> 00:19:21.060 line:15%
until you reach the point of satisfaction.
421
00:19:21.060 --> 00:19:24.660 line:15%
And the original Hebrew word could describe
422
00:19:24.660 --> 00:19:28.980 line:15%
how a person feels after eating a big meal
423
00:19:28.980 --> 00:19:32.730 line:15%
and is full and satisfied as a result.
424
00:19:32.730 --> 00:19:36.360 line:15%
Thus, God wants us to live a life that is full
425
00:19:36.360 --> 00:19:40.740 line:15%
and leaves us completely satisfied when finally you've eaten
426
00:19:40.740 --> 00:19:43.290 line:15%
so much at the table, you say, I can't eat anymore.
427
00:19:43.290 --> 00:19:47.490 line:15%
That's enough. God wants you to live life that is so full
428
00:19:47.490 --> 00:19:50.250 line:15%
and so meaningful that finally you come to a moment
429
00:19:50.250 --> 00:19:51.960 line:15%
where you say - You know what, this has been good.
430
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:54.720 line:15%
I'm ready to go. That is just amazing.
431
00:19:54.720 --> 00:19:57.240 line:15%
And in fact, the rest of
the verse says, he wants
432
00:19:57.240 --> 00:19:59.760 line:15%
to show you his salvation.
433
00:19:59.760 --> 00:20:01.410 line:15%
The word show means to parade.
434
00:20:01.410 --> 00:20:04.620 line:15%
He wants to show off his
salvation in your life.
435
00:20:04.620 --> 00:20:07.020 line:15%
And the word salvation does not just refer
436
00:20:07.020 --> 00:20:08.940 line:15%
to eternal salvation.
437
00:20:08.940 --> 00:20:12.720 line:15%
Listen to this, the Hebrew
word for salvation, pictures,
438
00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:16.170 line:15%
deliverance, healing,
prosperity, wholeness,
439
00:20:16.170 --> 00:20:19.890 line:15%
and everything else that
is packed into salvation.
440
00:20:19.890 --> 00:20:23.760 line:15%
So the verse literally means,
I will show him deliverance,
441
00:20:23.760 --> 00:20:27.630 line:15%
I will show him healing, I
will show him prosperity,
442
00:20:27.630 --> 00:20:31.590 line:15%
I will show him wholeness, I
will show him everything else
443
00:20:31.590 --> 00:20:34.650 line:15%
that is packed into salvation.
444
00:20:37.200 --> 00:20:42.000 line:15%
Now, friends, that is just
amazing. That is amazing.
445
00:20:42.840 --> 00:20:44.580 line:15%
You know, when I was young,
446
00:20:44.580 --> 00:20:46.230 line:15%
if somebody was in their mid 60's,
447
00:20:46.230 --> 00:20:48.340 line:15%
we already deem them to be old.
448
00:20:48.340 --> 00:20:52.150 line:15%
But today people are living
much, much longer lives.
449
00:20:52.150 --> 00:20:57.010 line:15%
And my friends, God wants you
to have a long, a satisfied
450
00:20:57.010 --> 00:20:58.360 line:15%
and meaningful life.
451
00:20:58.360 --> 00:21:00.790 line:15%
It is possible for you to stay strong
452
00:21:00.790 --> 00:21:03.490 line:15%
and healthy as you age,
453
00:21:03.490 --> 00:21:07.420 line:15%
and you can do so by
standing on the promises,
454
00:21:07.420 --> 00:21:09.880 line:15%
doing everything you can
to appropriate the healing
455
00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:12.520 line:15%
and health that Jesus purchased for you.
456
00:21:12.520 --> 00:21:16.510 line:15%
And by using common sense in the way that you care
457
00:21:16.510 --> 00:21:17.590 line:15%
for your physical body.
458
00:21:17.590 --> 00:21:20.950 line:15%
And if you have made mistakes,
I don't care how old you are,
459
00:21:20.950 --> 00:21:24.070 line:15%
it is never too late to repent
and to get a fresh start.
460
00:21:24.070 --> 00:21:28.630 line:15%
And today may be your day
to say, Lord, forgive me
461
00:21:28.630 --> 00:21:30.010 line:15%
for not taking care of me
462
00:21:31.030 --> 00:21:34.420 line:15%
and help me to take the steps
to rectify what I've done
463
00:21:34.420 --> 00:21:37.720 line:15%
to self-sabotage so
that I will enjoy health
464
00:21:37.720 --> 00:21:40.930 line:15%
and be strong to the end of my race.
465
00:21:40.930 --> 00:21:43.570 line:15%
In Jesus' name, amen.
466
00:21:43.570 --> 00:21:46.390 line:15%
I'll be back in just a moment and I'm going to pray for you.
467
00:21:54.700 --> 00:21:57.100 line:15%
Somebody has asked the question - Brother Rick,
468
00:21:57.100 --> 00:22:01.990 line:15%
what do I do if it seems like God is silent?
469
00:22:01.990 --> 00:22:06.490 line:15%
Well, first of all, God
is rarely, rarely silent.
470
00:22:06.490 --> 00:22:10.720 line:15%
We may not be hearing him,
but God is speaking to us.
471
00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:13.780 line:15%
Maybe you're waiting for some
special word when the answer
472
00:22:13.780 --> 00:22:16.060 line:15%
you need may be in the Bible.
473
00:22:16.060 --> 00:22:17.740 line:15%
You just need to go to the word of God
474
00:22:17.740 --> 00:22:19.060 line:15%
and you will find answers.
475
00:22:19.060 --> 00:22:22.150 line:15%
Maybe it's not the
answer you're hoping for,
476
00:22:22.150 --> 00:22:25.000 line:15%
but God will really speak to
you through the scriptures.
477
00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:30.000 line:15%
And remember that we're told in Psalm 46:10 - Be still
478
00:22:30.160 --> 00:22:32.290 line:15%
and know that I'm God.
479
00:22:32.290 --> 00:22:36.310 line:15%
Sometimes our minds are so
busy that we just can't hear.
480
00:22:36.310 --> 00:22:38.350 line:15%
Jesus said He who has ears to hear
481
00:22:38.350 --> 00:22:40.870 line:15%
let him hear what the spirit says.
482
00:22:40.870 --> 00:22:44.140 line:15%
And if you'll calm yourself down and be still,
483
00:22:44.140 --> 00:22:47.200 line:15%
and if you go to the scriptures to look for an answer,
484
00:22:47.200 --> 00:22:51.190 line:15%
you will find God really is speaking to you.
485
00:22:51.190 --> 00:22:53.140 line:15%
Healing isn't just possible -
486
00:22:54.010 --> 00:22:58.330 line:15%

00:24:16.760 --> 00:24:19.670 line:15%
Hey guys, this is Rick
Renner and guess where I am.
515
00:24:19.670 --> 00:24:21.110 line:15%
This is the lunch room
516
00:24:21.110 --> 00:24:24.350 line:15%
in our Tulsa Ministry Headquarters facility.
517
00:24:24.350 --> 00:24:26.660 line:15%
People have to have a place to work
518
00:24:26.660 --> 00:24:31.070 line:15%
and they work really hard in
this facility taking calls,
519
00:24:31.070 --> 00:24:33.440 line:15%
answering letters from thousands
520
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:35.600 line:15%
and thousands of people who reach out
521
00:24:35.600 --> 00:24:37.490 line:15%
to us every day and every week.
522
00:24:37.490 --> 00:24:41.120 line:15%
But in this room, we
decided to adorn the walls
523
00:24:41.120 --> 00:24:45.110 line:15%
with photographs of all the
places where we have offices
524
00:24:45.110 --> 00:24:46.970 line:15%
for Renner Ministries.
525
00:24:46.970 --> 00:24:50.030 line:15%
But right now we're trying
to pay off this facility.
526
00:24:50.030 --> 00:24:52.790 line:15%
It's called the Ministry
Expansion Project.
527
00:24:52.790 --> 00:24:56.780 line:15%
We've already paid off
83% of the facility.
528
00:24:56.780 --> 00:25:00.140 line:15%
And my friends, we need your
help to help us finish this.
529
00:25:00.140 --> 00:25:02.480 line:15%
And if you're not already
a part of the Giving team,
530
00:25:02.480 --> 00:25:04.790 line:15%
I'm inviting you to join us
531
00:25:04.790 --> 00:25:07.430 line:15%
and to help us pay off this facility.
532
00:25:07.430 --> 00:25:10.160 line:15%
And when it is finished being paid for,
533
00:25:10.160 --> 00:25:12.500 line:15%
it's gonna release all those finances
534
00:25:12.500 --> 00:25:16.370 line:15%
so we can keep taking the teaching of the Bible to the ends
535
00:25:16.370 --> 00:25:18.260 line:15%
of the earth.
536
00:25:18.260 --> 00:25:20.480 line:15%
But thank you for being apart.
537
00:25:29.000 --> 00:25:31.160 line:15%
Well, today we've covered
a lot of material about how
538
00:25:31.160 --> 00:25:34.970 line:15%
to stay strong and healthy as you age.
539
00:25:34.970 --> 00:25:36.560 line:15%
And if you're a little older,
540
00:25:36.560 --> 00:25:39.980 line:15%
this has really been an
important program for you.
541
00:25:39.980 --> 00:25:42.530 line:15%
But there's so much in
this 10 part series,
542
00:25:42.530 --> 00:25:44.600 line:15%
which is called, Everything You Need To Know About Healing
543
00:25:44.600 --> 00:25:46.760 line:15%
comes with a great study guide
544
00:25:46.760 --> 00:25:50.360 line:15%
and I'm really excited about my book called Everything You
545
00:25:50.360 --> 00:25:51.470 line:15%
Need to Know About Healing.
546
00:25:51.470 --> 00:25:53.660 line:15%
It is jam packed with spiritual
547
00:25:53.660 --> 00:25:57.590 line:15%
and practical help to help you attain healing
548
00:25:57.590 --> 00:25:59.210 line:15%
and health in your life.
549
00:25:59.210 --> 00:26:02.030 line:15%
And I'm just thrilled about Mike Clark's book called There's
550
00:26:02.030 --> 00:26:04.640 line:15%
a Light at the End of Your Tunnel.
551
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:07.010 line:15%
It will help you see the light
at the end of your tunnel.
552
00:26:07.010 --> 00:26:10.130 line:15%
You can get there, you
can step into the healing
553
00:26:10.130 --> 00:26:11.780 line:15%
and health that is already yours.
554
00:26:11.780 --> 00:26:15.350 line:15%
It is yours; your healed by the stripes of Jesus.
555
00:26:15.350 --> 00:26:17.990 line:15%
The devil's just trying to take your health away from you.
556
00:26:17.990 --> 00:26:20.660 line:15%
There's a way for you to maintain it even though
557
00:26:20.660 --> 00:26:21.860 line:15%
you're under attack.
558
00:26:21.860 --> 00:26:24.230 line:15%
And his book will really encourage you
559
00:26:24.230 --> 00:26:27.260 line:15%
or somebody you know that's
struggling with their health.
560
00:26:27.260 --> 00:26:28.730 line:15%

572
00:26:58.200 --> 00:26:59.610 line:15%
their emotions, or their bodies.
573
00:26:59.610 --> 00:27:01.620 line:15%
So let us know how to pray for you,
574
00:27:01.620 --> 00:27:03.690 line:15%
and I'm gonna pray for you right now.
575
00:27:03.690 --> 00:27:06.030 line:15%
Father, I thank you in the powerful name of Jesus
576
00:27:06.030 --> 00:27:08.700 line:15%
that we can be strong as we age.
577
00:27:08.700 --> 00:27:10.290 line:15%
We don't have to become decrepit.
578
00:27:10.290 --> 00:27:13.260 line:15%
It is your plan to show us deliverance
579
00:27:13.260 --> 00:27:15.660 line:15%
and healing, prosperity, salvation,
580
00:27:15.660 --> 00:27:18.300 line:15%
and everything packed
into salvation all the way
581
00:27:18.300 --> 00:27:19.860 line:15%
to the end of our life.
582
00:27:19.860 --> 00:27:24.860 line:15%
Lord, we say thank you and we
take it in Jesus name. Amen.
583
00:27:25.110 --> 00:27:26.640 line:15%
I'll see you tomorrow.
584
00:27:26.640 --> 00:27:30.060 line:15%
But remember Ecclesiastes 8:4, never forget it.
585
00:27:30.060 --> 00:27:34.110 line:15%
It says "Where the word of the king is, there is power."
586
00:27:34.110 --> 00:27:36.360 line:15%
If you've never received Jesus as your Savior
587
00:27:36.360 --> 00:27:40.740 line:15%
and Lord, now is the time for you to experience a new life
588
00:27:40.740 --> 00:27:42.870 line:15%
Jesus has to give you.
589
00:27:42.870 --> 00:27:46.980 line:15%
Pray this prayer with me right now - Lord,
590
00:27:46.980 --> 00:27:51.000 line:15%
I repent of my sin and receive you as my Savior
591
00:27:51.000 --> 00:27:53.970 line:15%
and Lord. Wash away my sin
592
00:27:53.970 --> 00:27:57.000 line:15%
and make me completely new.
593
00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:00.780 line:15%
I thank you that my sin is removed
594
00:28:00.780 --> 00:28:05.780 line:15%
and Satan no longer has any
right to lay claim on me.
595
00:28:06.300 --> 00:28:10.290 line:15%
I faithfully promise that
I will serve you as my Lord
596
00:28:10.290 --> 00:28:14.130 line:15%
for the rest of my life - Amen.
