CHILDREN OF GOD: BELIEVING IS RECEIVING

Revelation 19:10 NASB95

Then I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “Do not do that; I am a fellow servant of yours and your brethren who hold the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

Prophetic word

John 5:19–20 NASB95

Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner. “For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing; and the Father will show Him greater works than these, so that you will marvel.

John 12:49 NASB95

“For I did not speak on My own initiative, but the Father Himself who sent Me has given Me a commandment as to what to say and what to speak.

Jesus paid the full price for healing

Isaiah 53:4–5 NASB95

Surely our griefs He Himself bore, And our sorrows He carried; Yet we ourselves esteemed Him stricken, Smitten of God, and afflicted. But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; The chastening for our well-being fell upon Him, And by His scourging we are healed.

Matthew 8:16–17 NASB95

When evening came, they brought to Him many who were demon-possessed; and He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were ill. This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet: “He Himself took our infirmities and carried away our diseases.”

5 STEP METHOD ROADMAP

1) Interview

2) Prayer Selection

3) Prayer Ministry

4) Stop and Re-Interview

5) Post Prayer Suggestions

Step 1: The Interview

Introduce yourself then ask where does it hurt or what would you like me to pray for?

What’s wrong?

Luke 18:41–43 NASB95

“What do you want Me to do for you?” And he said, “Lord, I want to regain my sight!” And Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has made you well.” Immediately he regained his sight and began following Him, glorifying God; and when all the people saw it, they gave praise to God.

How Long?

Mark 9:17–21 NASB95

And one of the crowd answered Him, “Teacher, I brought You my son, possessed with a spirit which makes him mute; and whenever it seizes him, it slams him to the ground and he foams at the mouth, and grinds his teeth and stiffens out. I told Your disciples to cast it out, and they could not do it.” And He answered them and said, “O unbelieving generation, how long shall I be with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring him to Me!” They brought the boy to Him. When he saw Him, immediately the spirit threw him into a convulsion, and falling to the ground, he began rolling around and foaming at the mouth. And He asked his father, “How long has this been happening to him?” And he said, “From childhood.

• Natural level – what can you see?

• Supernatural – ask God for Words of Knowledge, discernment, visions, words of Wisdom

• It’s not a medical interview- get the facts;

• Move to the next stage when ready.

Diagnosis: through asking these questions and listening to the person with one ear and Holy Spirit with the other, you can diagnose where to start, how to pray, and determine root causes of the problem and not simply symptoms

The Diagnosis

Why do they have this condition?

Diagnosis: through asking these questions and listening to the person with one ear and Holy Spirit with the other, you can diagnose where to start, how to pray, and determine root causes of the problem and not simply symptoms

• Natural causes – disease, accident;

• Sin – committed by them or against them;

• Emotional hurts causing physical or other pain;

• Relationship problems – lack of forgiveness;

• Supernatural – may be demonic;

• Keep asking for God’s help – it may be useful to pray in tongues;

• Ask them questions if appropriate.

Step 2: Prayer Selection

What kind of prayer shall I pray to help this person?

Command:

Addressed to a condition of the body or to a troubling spirit

Appropriate when: initial step, where there is a Word o Knowledge, where progress of petition prayers have stopped to cast out spirits, when curse or vow is broken, when led by Holy Spirit, as preliminary to praying for healing

“In the name of Jesus, I command this tumor to shrivel up and dissolve…spine be straight!...Be healed!...I command every afflicting spirit to get out of Jim’s body!...”

Acts 3:6 NASB95

But Peter said, “I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—walk!”

Petition:

A request to heal, addressed to Father God, Jesus, or Holy Spirit.

We are not begging Him, or trying to convince God rather we are agreeing with Him to come and to do His will on earth.

“Father in the name of Jesus, I ask you to restore sight to this eye…Come Holy Spirit, release your power, touch Jim’s back in Jesus’ name.”

Ask, Seek, Knock

Luke 11:9–10 NASB95

“So I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. “For everyone who asks, receives; and he who seeks, finds; and to him who knocks, it will be opened.

• Pronouncement – of faith John 4:50

John 4:50 NASB95

Jesus said to him, “Go; your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and started off.

• Demonic – rebuke (break their power) bind them (contain) expel (get rid).

Step 3: Prayer engagement

How are you doing?

Mark 9:25–26 NASB95

When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, “You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not enter him again.” After crying out and throwing him into terrible convulsions, it came out; and the boy became so much like a corpse that most of them said, “He is dead!”

Keep your eyes open and watch for the effects – physical signs (warmth,tingling, shaking etc);

Ask questions – find out what God is doing;

Stop when – they think it’s all over; the Spirit tells you it’s over; you’ve run out of things to pray; when it’s going nowhere;

Jesus prayed with short, simple, effective command type prayers demonstrating His authority and power.

STEP 4: STOP AND RE-INTERVIEW

Pray short prayers, stopping to test it out, check progress, and reevaluate

Test it out: this important action involves faith and many times is where healing happens

May have to pray and test it out many times until completely healed

Acts 3:6–7 NASB95

But Peter said, “I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene—walk!” And seizing him by the right hand, he raised him up; and immediately his feet and his ankles were strengthened.

If progress has stopped, re-evaluate and re-interview

Ask questions that might help to determine if there is unforgiveness, curses, fear, or occult involvement. Also, consider

whether an evil spirit is present.

Mark 8:23–25 NASB95

Taking the blind man by the hand, He brought him out of the village; and after spitting on his eyes and laying His hands on him, He asked him, “Do you see anything?” And he looked up and said, “I see men, for I see them like trees, walking around.” Then again He laid His hands on his eyes; and he looked intently and was restored, and began to see everything clearly.

Step 5: Post prayer direction

What should they do to keep their healing? i.e. ‘Stop sinning’

John 5:14 NASB95

Afterward Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “Behold, you have become well; do not sin anymore, so that nothing worse happens to you.”
