I discovered a secret. When you come into the house of God, or at home, or in the car, or daily walking around doing your business, if you keep the valve open for God to flow in, the flowing of the Spirit heals the natural body. Let me tell you a little about it.
I was in Jamaica and had a pain in my arm. I couldn’t lift my hand above a certain point. One brother began to preach and said, “I want you all to lift your hands. If your hand is even paining you, lift it!” So I lifted my hands. I believe it was the energy that came from the living Word he gave and I accepted that went into my arm. It is so simple and yet so profound. I don’t know if we don’t believe it, but we don’t pay much attention to the flowing of the energy of God. Yet, it not only heals the soul but also, it heals the body! Healing cannot come to the body, unless it first comes through the soul. I will give you an example of how the healing came through the soul.
One time we were in Miami and a sister in the Lord went to South America to be a missionary. But she is one of those who is so meticulous that she is washing her hands all the time and everything must be absolutely clean around her. She shakes your hand and immediately, she has to go away and wash her hand, because she shook yours. She is so germ conscious! Well, she went to the mission field. One day the brethren had a feast. They roasted a pig out in the open, turning in over the fire. After it was done, they came along, cut off pieces and handed them out. Everybody was eating but when it came to her turn and she saw the flies over the meat, she just couldn’t eat it. So she said, “I am not feeling too well, so I would like to go home and rest for a while.” They said, “All right,” took her home, but sent somebody right after her with her share of the pig. If you don’t eat, you are against them! In other words, they feel that you scorn them if you don’t eat their food. So, the woman (food-deliverer) came and sat down to see her eat it. And she did eat it! However…
She came back home to Miami and one whole side of her body started getting dead and slow. Her arm and her leg couldn’t move. She was walking and driving and her leg wouldn’t move. They took her to the doctor who gave her all the tests there could be. I mean, they tortured her with tests! She said they put her on a wheel, put dye into her veins and spun her around. They did everything they knew how. Yet, they could not find anything wrong with her. Physically, there was no problem.
Her husband was a psychologist. One day he came home and said to himself, “Well, the doctors can’t find anything, so I think I will probably have to give her some placebos and see what happens.” He went to the doctor and told him this plan. The doctor agreed, called her in and said, “Aha! You picked up an amoeba in South America and we have at last identified it. We are going to give you these tablets and they will cure you.” She took the tablets and was better. And she is better up to this day, I believe.
What happened? The sickness came from her mind! All the spirits of hell will be able to minister to you if you have the mind to accept them. Therefore, let your mind be filled with the life of God and you will receive all healing that you are in need of.
