This Week's Message
Renewing Your Mind to Good Health
A. The Threefold Purpose of This Series
1. To invest our time
A. Romans 10:17 Faith for healing comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God about healing.
I. Oral Roberts told me we have to hear something seven times in order to get it.
II. A man asked Kenneth E. Hagin why he keeps teaching on Mark 11:23. Brother Hagin responded that he would move onto something else when "you get it."
B. Ten days of total immersion in healing
2. To renew our minds
A. We must experience a change in our belief system concerning our health.
B. It is God's determination for us to live in divine health. I. "I want My people well." ii. "My people are not the sick trying to get well." iii. "They are the healed and Satan is trying to steal their health from them."
3. To receive our healing
A. Receiving our healing has nothing to do with God's willingness to heal.
B. The work of healing is complete.
C. It has everything to do with our capacity to receive the work that Jesus has already accomplished.
B. Romans 12:1-2-The Renewing of Our Minds
1. Verse 1: "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your BODIES a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service."
A. AMP: "...Make a decisive dedication of your bodies [presenting all your members and faculties]...to God."
2. Verse 2: "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
3. Our bodies will be transformed and changed according to God's perfect will for us to be healed.
- 3 - C. Matthew 13:15-16-A Healing Conversion
1. Reach out for a new level of understanding and comprehension concerning the power of God to heal your body.
2. Verse 15: "For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see [God's Word about healing] with their eyes, and hear [God's Word about healing] with their ears, and should understand [God's Word about healing] with their heart, and should be converted [to God's Word about healing], and I should heal them."
A. AMP: "Lest they see and perceive with their eyes, and hear and comprehend the sense with their ears, and grasp and understand with their heart, and turn and I should heal them."
B. Convert-completely change
C. Verse 16: "But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear."
3. "When you know that by His stripes you are healed, and you know that in your spirit just like you know that 2 + 2 = 4 in your mind, the devil won't have any authority over you. The way to know that in your spirit is by meditating upon it with your mind until it filters down into your spirit. Then, you will be certain and sure."
A. 1 Peter 2:24: "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed."
