Is ANY SICK AMONG YOU Let him call for the elders of
the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with
oil in the name of the LORD: 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. James
5:14,15
Is any sick among you?
Among who? The Church!
Then it must be God’s will to heal “any” of the sick in the
Church!
And it can’t be God’s will for “any” in the Church to be sick!
“But, Brother Hagin, you’ve forgotten,”one person said.
“Forgotten what?”
“The Bible says that if we suffer with Him, we’ll reign with Him.”
“No, I haven’t forgotten,” I explained. “Let’s read it again:. . . if.
. . we suffer WITH HIM . . .: (ROMANS. 8:17). SUFFER WHAT:
PNEUMONIA? CANCER? TUBERCULOSIS? No! Jesus
didn’t suffer from any of these things.
What did Jesus suffer? Persecution. And you will, too, if you
live right. Especially if you preach divine healing, the gifts of the
Spirit, and faith. I’ve suffered persecution for more than sixty
years, but I haven’t suffered sickness and disease,
Confession: It is God’s will for the Church, His Body, to walk in
divine health. It is God’s will for me to be well !

PRAYING AND SAYING
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye
desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them,
and ye shall have them. MARK 11:24
Faith will work by saying without praying (notice Mark
11:23 doesn’t mention praying), but faith also works by
prayer.
However, when you pray it, you still have to say (or
confess) it.
Let me repeat that: FAITH will work by SAYING it, or it
will work by PRAYING it, but when you PRAY it, you
still have to SAY it.
MARK 11:23 and 24 brought me off a bed of sickness
many years ago. After I had prayed, then I began to
say (not think) out loud in my room, “ I believe that I
receive healing for my body.” Then I specified each
thing that was wrong with me: “I believe I receive
healing for the heart condition. I believe I receive
healing for this paralysis. I believe I receive healing for
the incurable blood disease.”
And just in case I had missed anything, I concluded,
“I believe that I receive healing from the top of my
head to the soles of my feet.”
Within the hour every symptom of physical deficiency
disappeared from my body, and I was standing on the
floor beside the bed—healed!
===================================
Confession: What things soever I desire, when I pray,
I believe that I receive them. I confess what I believe.
I hold fast to my confession. And I never fail to receive
them.
===================================
After all, Jesus said: “Have FAITH IN GOD. Truly , I
say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘be taken
up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to
pass, it will be done for him. (MARK 11:22-23)

FLEECES?
A NEW HEART ALSO WILL I GIVE YOU, AND A
NEW SPIRIT WILL I PUT WITHIN YOU: AND I
WILL TAKE AWAY THE STONY HEART OUT OF
YOUR FLESH, AND I WILL GIVE YOU AN HEART
OF FLESH, AND I WILL PUT MY SPIRIT WITHIN
YOU . . . Ezekiel 36, 26,27
To receive guidance, some people put out what
they call a “fleece” before the Lord. Gideon did.
Remember, Gideon was not a prophet, priest, or
king. Only men who stood in those three offices,
under the Old Covenant, were anointed by the
Spirit of God, The Spirit of God was not personally
present with the rest of the people. That is why
every male had to present himself once a year at
the Temple in Jerusalem. That was old covenant.
The new covenant …
Then Shekinah glory — the Presence of God —
was kept shut up in the Holy of Holies. But when
Jesus died on Calvary, the curtain that blocked the
way into the Holy of Holies was ripped in two from
top to bottom. God moved out —- and He has
never dwelled in an earth=made house since! HE
DWELLS IN US! Ask of HIM. HE will hear you,
you, and answer you.

BORN OF THE SPIRIT
That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of
the Spirit is spirit. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be
born again.
JOHN 3:6,7
BORN OF THE SPIRIT. The spirit of man is the part of man
which is born again. The Christian’s spirit has the life and
nature of God in it. The inward man is born of God’s Spirit and
has the Spirit of God in Him.
FILLED WITH THAT SPIRIT. The born-again Christian can be
filled with that same Spirit which he already has in him. And
when he is filled with that Spirit, there will be an overflowing of
that Spirit. He will speak with other tongues as the Holy Spirit
gives him utterance.
(Acts2:4).
LED BY THE SPIRIT. “For as many as are led by the Spirit of
God, they are the sons of God.” Even the born-again one who
has not been filled with the Spirit, has the Spirit of God abiding
in him —- and he can expect to be led and guided by the Holy
Spirit.
You are a child of God. You are born of the Spirit of God. The
Spirit of God leads you. Holy Spirit will rise big in you. He will
give illumination to your mind. Holy Spirit will give direction to
your spirit.
