Day 50

➡ 1:00 - TODAY - No specific plan.

➡ 2:05 - John 8 - We can close with this. If somebody wants to testify...

7:30 - v.31 - Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; - Abiding in His word renews you in the spirit of your mind. Before we met Christ we lived in the wisdom of the world all of our days. The way that seems right to man was ruling our lives. And you have to be sure that that way is never integrated into the truth - laced through with the truth. Abide in His word - that's what makes us disciples. Look at the promise of abiding in His word...

8:40 - v.32 - And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. - It's not the altar call - the laying on of hands - it's the truth that makes you free. Good things can happen through ministry but it's not until truth dawns in you heart that you will walk in continual freedom. But once you know the truth, you are locked in. Nobody can unconvince me of the things that I have been talking about. They are my reality. I'm not TRYING to believe it. I don't wake up and TRY to live by faith. They have become my knowing.

10:20 - Truth is the life of Jesus lived.

10:35 - v.33 - They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free? - We are nobody's slave.

10:45 - v.34-36 - Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin. And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever. If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. - That is enough to show you that Jesus came to set us free from a sin-consciousness and get us to where we are righteousness - sons and not sinners. The purpose of Jesus was to separate us from the bondage to sin - the identity of sin - the stain of sin - the nature of sin - that drive of sin.

11:45 - Remember the Son is the truth. Truth makes you free. Everything that you see about Him is the truth about you. Go be Jesus to the world. Be just like Him.

12:00 - You are not in this school to stir up your mind. You are here to get the heart to come alive by seeing truth. Once you see truth, truth makes you free. It's a done deal.

13:00 - Wrap up questions? Pictures?

13:30 - When praying for the sick, should we anoint with oil? - There is a place for it. It's your privilege to use oil. It's a contact point of faith. There is no power in the bottle but there sure is a power in the representation that Holy Spirit is coming upon you when I touch you.

21:25 - James 5:13 - Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms. - It's easy to complain. It's easy to tell everyone how much you are suffering. And then you amplify the suffering. It empowers the suffering.

22:30 - I personally believe he is writing about a shut in person. He can't get to where you are. And he is calling for the elders to come.

23:00 - Or just asking for prayer at church.

24:10 - Anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord - What are you doing? You are doing it in the name of the Lord - declaring the Spirit of the Lord to be upon him - the anointing of God upon him - the grace of God upon him.

24:25 - v.15 - And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. -

24:30 - The elders of the church are praying over him. It's their faith. It has nothing to do with the sick person.

25:25 - If you don't believe it's the will of God to heal everybody, then you will go through the ordinance and anoint with oil but it's not the prayer of faith. And then if there is no result you'll go, "See, God doesn't heal everyone. But at least I did what I was supposed to do." No, you didn't. You are supposed to pray the prayer of faith. The prayer of faith is a convinced, persuaded place that says, "I understand the heart of God in this situation and I know the will of God through His Son, so be healed."

26:00 - This kind of scripture really pins us down and takes away our excuses for lack of power. We have a lot of excuses for a lack of power. If we can blame it on something, we will. We need to stop that.

26:10 - Will save the sick - will raise him up - no limitation - no other outcome. So is this thing on God? Or is it on the church having a revelation? Church. God is a yes and amen God.

26:50 - Shall be forgiven - So what is the basis for healing? The fact that God's mercy is on the earth through the blood of Jesus and all men can be forgiven and healed.

27:15 - [Scenario of someone calling for prayer encompassing the teachings above], [Examples]

29:10 - Participant testimony - anointing with oil. Aaronic blessing. Spiritual eyes opened - sees things differently.

30:45 - Water bottle over head - Memories of pouring oil over people. Water bottle over her head. She brought me a water bottle. "Don't drink it. Pour it over her head." I didn't hesitate. If you think, you get in trouble. Spirit of God came. Her backstory - Attacked with condemnation while Dan was preaching. Ran to car to leave. Torrential rain. The Lord spoke to her that she had been run out of the service. "I need you back in there." Soaked by rain. "Are you trying to say that I am washed clean?" Brings me a water bottle and I pour it over her. "The Lord says you are clean. I've washed you..." Contact points of faith. Obey right away.

35:10 - This will of God thing got real big in me as I was teaching. I didn't teach it during this school. But I want to show you something real quick - 2 Cor. 1. Because I don't want you struggling with the will of God to heal. That's the biggest stumbling block in the church for releasing faith. When you pray for someone and they don't get healed and their mind just goes bonkers. And our minds have the position that it has to explain everything. Don't get trapped in having to explain everything.

35:30 - If you make it simple and just say He is growing me in a revelation and I am going to know Him more because I am going to keep pressing in and touching people and more things are going to be happening... I always settle it with this - If Jesus touched somebody, what is going to happen? It's a done deal. And where does He live? In us and He gave us the green light, "Go!" Don't make it complicated.

35:55 - 2 Cor. 1 - v.15 - Paul is sharing his travel plans. - And in this confidence I was minded to come unto you before, that ye might have a second benefit; - He's talking about coming to the Corinthians and they were going to bless him - sow into him - provide for him on his way to Macedonia. Second benefit - meeting my needs.

36:55 - v.16 - And to pass by you into Macedonia, and to come again out of Macedonia unto you, and of you to be brought on my way toward Judaea. - Swing by again on the way to Judea. Now catch how he shifts gears... Why he is writing here and the wisdom of God behind it.

37:20 - v.17 - When I therefore was thus minded, did I use lightness? or the things that I purpose, do I purpose according to the flesh, that with me there should be yea yea, and nay nay? - He's saying that when you live by the flesh you are very bouncy - indecisive - shifting like the winds - it's yes and no. God doesn't shift. He felt like it was the wisdom of God to carry out this plan - visiting twice. And he did it because he didn't do it lightly. Now he begins to talk spiritually...

39:05 - v.18 - But as God is true, our word toward you was not yea and nay. - Now he's putting it on the Father. God is faithful.

39:40 - The nature of God is Yes and Amen - v.19-20 - For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us, even by me and Silvanus and Timotheus, was not yea and nay, but in him was yea. For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. - Through us. The promises flow through us. We need to know our God to do great exploits - Dan. 11:32. The only reason we have a God that maybe He will and maybe He won't - let's pray and find out, is because we've judged Him according to the flesh (we see Him with the attributes of a man). We have discerned God through the flesh and with man there is a yes and a no. But to God there is a yes and amen.

42:40 - v.21 - Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; Who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. - Do you see the power of that scripture? You have to settle in your heart that it's the will of God to heal, restore, redeem and deliver across the board. He died once for all.

43:00 - The church argues this point because of our experiences, hurts and offenses. We haven't humbled ourselves. It's a yes and amen gospel. Yes and no was derived by the flesh. It's hard for the mind to wrap around what God is saying because of our emotions. There are things we are trying to protect that we need to stop protecting.

44:10 - What do you do when you pray for someone and nothing appears to happen immediately? - It makes people hesitant to pray. We know that God is always doing something. What about that person?

46:30 - That's very true. The number one downfall of releasing faith - getting caught in human emotion, sentiment, empathy. We know they need healing - that it's a terrible situation. Some of the hardest situations are when you can see it with your eyes (visuals) or when it's a little child or someone really close to you.

1:02:20 - Participant's clarification of question - I don't always have that. I don't always see Him...

1:11:30 - Raise the dead - David Hogan on teaching young believers to raise your dead.

1:12:00 - Witch doctor daddy - Childlike faith - held for six hours. Saved four weeks. Died cursing God. Holy Ghost in Jesus name. Mercy wouldn't let the daddy go. American mindset. Circumstances of the witch doctor's power. David had marks on His body from this man. Friends died because of him. When he died I thought it was victory. I was mad. I forgot that he was a man needing mercy. The man was different - apologized. Your fight is not flesh and blood.

1:18:00 - What did you see? You were gone six hours. Boys prayer held him from judgement. We represent the heart of God on the earth. When do you stop praying? As long as legally possible. He said it. We do it. Witch doctor had never read the Bible and saw Jesus as described in Revelations. "My name is Jesus. I love you." Breath brought life. Former witch doctor led great change in his people. The whole town got saved.

1:21:50 - They were praying because the witch doctor was bent on destroying the gospel. Every one feared him. He carried power in the demonic realm. His boys were dying of diseases. The boys went to church got saved and healed. When his boys walked in the door, he felt the shift. You are no longer my sons. Threw them out. As soon as he did that the two diseases that were killing his boys came into his flesh. He went on a rampage against the church. 100,000 believers praying in defense. He died. Though that was our victory.

1:24:55 - He talked straight up to Bethel. Those videos will expose pride in your life. "That guy has attitude." No, we have attitude. We have so much attitude that sometimes we can't hear the raw truth. We talk around it, hide from it, defend against it.

1:25:45 - David Hogan - They try to get us out into the jungle and kill us. Wires across the trail. You can't fear or love your life. Trust God and go.

1:26:30 - Gangrene - Knocking at the door. Pastor (David's right hand man) looks out and sees one of their worst enemies. I really need your help and I really need your God. No, I'm not coming - not falling for that. But it's not his life, so he goes. You Americans don't understand that. You have rights. Wife covered with gangrene. Prayed for her and nothing seemed to happen. Called for David Hogan. Wow, that pastor sold out. He is setting me up to save himself. This better not be a trick - you are lying to the Holy Ghost and you will die. Prayed, no apparent change. Within 3 days - totally healed. The whole village got born again.

1:41:45 - When you are going through a trial and a friend does not give wise counsel how do you respond? - You can't get caught trying to defend everything. Just settle it in your heart.

1:42:30 - Speaking truth when challenged. "You can't go to the hospital because it will affect your testimony. It's just a spiritual pride thing." That hasn't even crossed my mind. This is witchcraft. I need the gospel. "At what point do you use wisdom, look at your leg and do something?" That sounds so right to the flesh. You are advising me to look at the temporal when you preach not to do that. You should be telling me to keep my eyes on Jesus. Sentiment but not at the cost of truth. Fear of death. We love our flesh.

1:45:15 - It's a learning, growing thing.

1:45:40 - Additional teaching on participant's testimony of praying for toe. Growing, humble thing. She did it even though she didn't have much faith. God was cheering her on in His will. Trying to get her more one with Him so that she could rightly represent Him in every situation.

1:46:30 - Participant comment - Yea, Yea and Ney, Ney.

1:47:25 - Some say that we can't know the will of God. Taught to never assume to know the will of God - unholy, blasphemous, presumptuous thing. God alone is sovereign. He knows and we don't.

1:47:40 - Jesus is the will of God revealed - Jesus' life. The word became flesh - the word became a human being and walked among us. The life of Jesus was the word of God revealed. The will of God is the life of Jesus lived.

1:48:20 - Jesus healed everybody. Didn't turn anybody away. Everybody who touched Him was healed. He did have any of the reasons that we come up with as to why people can't be healed. We probably ought to get our lives lined up to His life because He is the truth that makes men free.

➡ 1:48:35 - I wanted to show you where not to turn back is located in the Bible. Let's just read it quickly.

1:49:45 - Disciplining Todd's bladder - Drinks a lot of water. Driving with a youth group. Prays for people at stops. I'll go in your seat. We've got to stop. I need to go right now. Runs straight to woman who needs prayer. Foot never healed - since 4 years old. Prayed for woman in parking lot. No more limp. Everybody is crying. Wasn't even thinking about peeing afterwards. Love over took the need to pee.

1:55:10 - Need to pee at the market place - John M. I needed to pee. I got up to go and a lady walked into the prayer booth. Ministered to her for forty-five minutes. Totally wrecked. Afterwards, I didn't even have to go. I don't know what happened.

1:56:00 - I know that I stretched Todd to the max.

➡ 1:56:25 - We are just going to wrap up and close.
