God Has Changed Your Diagnosis

  What do I mean God has changed your diagnosis?  In Genesis 17:4,5 God told Abraham that He had made him a father of many nations, but in Romans 4:19 the scripture says that his body was dead and his wife's womb was dead.  Now, we know you can't physically be a father of many nations when you have a dead body and your wife's womb is dead.  Despite that God said He had made him a father of many nations which means that God had to have done something about his and her bodies.  Now, here's what you need to understand, God did not physically make him a father of many nations, but that's what he was in the spirit.  Don't make the mistake of thinking of the spirit realm as less real than the physical realm.  The spirit realm was first and the physical realm came out of the spirit realm.  So, without the spirit realm there would be no physical realm.  Now, when God does something in the spirit it has the ability to be manifested physically.  Take God himself for example, John 4:24 says that God is a spirit and yet 1 Timothy 3:16 says that God(who is spirit) was manifested in the flesh(physical).  Notice, what the word calls Jesus in John 1:14 the word(spirit) made flesh(physical).

Notice, even though God did something in the spirit it had no affect on him nor his wife physically because his body was still dead and her womb was still dead.  Because when God does something for you in the spirit it's up to you to receive it by faith.  But, what people do a lot of times is wait for God to do it physically.  They wait until their senses can detect something before they believe God has done something.  Notice, they had nothing in the natural to tell them that God had done something.  That's why when it's by faith you don't look to your body to tell you if God has done something but, the word.  The word tells you what God has done not your body.  Your body can tell you when you have received something not if God has done something.  Notice, in Romans 4:19 it says that Abraham did not consider the deadness of his body nor the deadness of Sarah's womb.  He didn't put his focus on this physical realm.  That's  what the word says in 2 Corinthians 4:17,18 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;

18 While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.  Notice, in verse 18 while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen so even though it's not seen(spiritual) he still calls it a thing which means it exists.

Notice, what God did He changed their names to fit what He promised for Abraham means-father of a multitude and Sarah means-Princess of nations.  It's very important that you line your words with God's word even when things don't look like it.  Romans 4:17 speaks of God calls things that be not as though they were.  God call things that are not(manifested) as though they were(manifested).  And that's what He is having them to do because physically they were not that.  Just like in Joel 3:10 the scripture says, Let the weak say I am strong.  Notice, God knows you may be weak physically, but He says don't speak that say I am strong.  Well, the scripture says that the Lord is our strength and we know there is no weakness in God.  Notice, what God is doing trying to get people to stop speaking natural facts and start speaking spiritual truth.  Because, God works with your words so that makes your words very important.  In Numbers 14:1-4 when the people murmured against Moses and Aaron notice God's response, He told the people that as you have spoken in my ears so will I do unto you.  In Titus 1:3 it says that God manifests his word through preaching.  That word preaching means to proclaim or speak out.  Well, that's in line with what He says in Isaiah 57:19, I create the fruit of the lips.  And in Proverbs 18:21 it says, Death and life are in the power of the tongue and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.  So, your words are very important in receiving from God.

In 1 Corinthians 1:28 it says that God hath chosen to use things which are not to bring to nought(nothing) things that are.  God uses things which are not(manifested) that's spiritual things to bring to nothing things that are (manifested)that's physical things.  God uses spiritual things to get rid of physical things by your words.  Remember Abraham and Sarah they had to speak in line with what God said.  Remember Joel 3:10 they were told to speak in line with what the word says.  And it's important that you speak in line with what the word says and not present circumstances.  God used "A father of many nations have I made thee" to get rid of the deadness in his body by his words.  God used what the word says that God is our strength to get rid of weakness by their words.  Because, in Isaiah 55:11 God says that his word shall not return to him void(without producing), but shall accomplish that which He pleases.  His word returns to him by you speaking it and He tells you in Hebrews 10:23 to hold fast to your confession of faith.  That word confession means to say the same thing so you are to hold fast to saying the same thing as God in faith because God is faithful.  Hold fast to your confession that with his stripes I am healed (Isaiah 53:5).   Hold fast to your confession of faith that himself took my infirmities and bore my sicknesses (Matt. 8:17).  Hold fast to your confession of faith that by his stripes I was healed (1 Peter 2:24).  Hold fast to your confession of faith that Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law (Galatians 3:13).  That is done in the spirit right now.  And God will use those things to get rid of your condition by your words.  I am a first hand witness, when sickness attacked my body I held fast to my confession of faith and in a matter of time God manifested his word, He used what the word says about my healing to bring to nought what was going on in my body and I am still free all thanks be to God.

It is not God's will that any should perish (2 Peter 3:9).  And I wouldn't want to end this article without giving someone the opportunity to receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior.  It's very easy just pray:  Dear God- I know I have sinned and I now turn from them and I invite Jesus to come into my heart (Revelation 3:20).  He died for my sins and you have raised him from the dead and I now confess that Jesus is my Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9,10).  I thank you for saving me, Amen  

Healing From Your Spirit To Your Flesh

 In dealing with healing it's easy to get focused on what's happening in the body, but that's actually the opposite of what The Bible teaches.  Because, actually it's what's going on in your spirit that's most important.  Because, The Bible teaches that you prosper outside according to how you prosper inside. Notice, in 3John 2 it says, Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.  Man is spirit, soul, and body.  You are spirit and you have a soul(inside of your spirit) and you live in a body.

Notice, what Jesus was known for saying, "According to your faith so be it unto you", "As thou hast believed so be it done unto you" or "Your faith has made you whole".  All of those instances referred to healing in the body, but faith is an operation of the inside, the spirit.  As they prospered inside(spirit) they prospered outside(body).  God told Joshua in Joshua 1:8, This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.  Paul says in Romans 10:8, But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach.  First, the word is in your mouth and that word will get in your heart(spirit).

Notice, how God says you make your way prosperous and have good success by the word you keep in your mouth, you do it from the inside out.  Well, Proverbs 4:20-23 says, 20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.  21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.  22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.  23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.  That word health is translated medicine, remedy, healing, and cure.  Notice, it says to keep the word in the midst of your heart(inside) and those words can be medicine to your flesh(outside).

Take Abraham and Sarah for example God told Abraham that him and his wife would have a son, but his body was dead and her womb was dead.  So, God changed their names from Abram-high father to Abraham-father of a multitude and from Sarai-my princess to Sarah-princess of the multitude.  God had them to do the Proverbs 4:20-23 process which works from the inside out.  They had to speak the word in and then speak the word out. Jesus said it this way,  A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.  And those are the words that are medicine(healing) to your flesh that work from the inside out.

The Word Will Turn Your Body

God's word causes/makes all contrary things come in line with it.  You see that in Genesis 1 when there was darkness God said, "Light be" and there was light.  Everything God released his word to do everything that was contrary with it came in line with it.  And when God authorizes you to speak something and you speak it beleiving  then everything will line up with it.  God told Abram that he would make him a father of many nations, but notice his body was dead and his wife's womb was dead (Romans 4:19).  So, what did God do he changed their names to Abraham(father of a multitude) and Sarah(Princess of nations).  Notice, their names were changed to match what God said he would do.  And their bodies lined up with it.  Abraham was not weak in faith, but was strong in faith (Romans 4:19,20).

Look at Jesus, he only spoke the word of God and when he released it believing all contrary conditions lined up with it.  When a man couldn't walk Jesus would tell him, "Rise, take up thy bed, and go thy way into thine house" and they did.  A man with a withered hand and Jesus told him, "Stretch forth thine hand" and he did.  When a woman was barren God would send her a word that she would have a child and they did.  God said that a virgin shall conceive and bring forth a son and she did.  All conditions give way to the word of God.  And you have been authorized to speak God's word because the scripture says, "Let us hold fast the profession(confession) of our faith."

James 3 is an excellent chapter that shows you the effect your words have on your body.  Verses 3 and 4 says, "Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body."  "Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the govenor listeth."  What are these verses saying, in verse 4 the tongue of the horse is used to control the body, he's showing you the comparison with your tongue.  In verse 5 he's saying you(spirit you) are the governor, your body is the ship because it's how you get around in this physical world.  And the rudder is the tongue.  So, if you want to turn your ship change your words.  And did you notice that no matter how fierce the winds are the ship goes where you guide it.

Isn't that what Abraham and Sarah did when God changed their names.  Notice, God gives you something to say to change your body.  Why, because Romans 1:16 says that the word of God is the power of God.  So, if you hold fast to your confession of faith the power of God will turn your body.  In Proverbs 4: 20-22 it instructs you to keep the word in your eyes, ears, and mouth for it is health to your flesh.  That word health is translated as medicine, healing, remedy, and cure.  The words you speak are vital to the condition of your body.  Psalm 103:5 says, "Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things(words); so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.  Notice, it didn't say God satisfieth you, no he said your mouth.  He uses the mouth to turn the body.  So, hold fast to your confession of faith.

Your Healing Is In The Seed Of The Word

All the healing you need is in the word of God.  The word of God is characterized as seed (Mark 4:14).  That's important to understand for Proverbs 4:20-22 says,  "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings.  Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.  For they are life unto them that find them, and health to all their flesh."  What is he saying, plant the word in your heart because it's a seed.  That word health is marpe in hebrew which means- a medicine, healing, remedy, and cure.  And it's taken from another hebrew word rapha which in itself means to cure, cause to heal, make whole.  So, the healing you need is in the seed.

In Proverbs 16:24 it says, "Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health(marpe) to the bones.  Notice he keeps relating words with healing.  And in Proverbs 15:4 it says, "A wholesome tongue is a tree of life" (and that word wholesome is translated as the same word health in Proverbs 4).  Why a tree, because a tree represents seed that has been sown.  And we know from Proverbs 18:21 you eat the fruit of the tree you plant.  Eating represents the seed coming into manifestation.  Because, you have to have something in order to eat it.

God works through your words that are in line with his words to bring healing, in 1Corinthians 3:6,7 it says, "I have planted(seed), Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.  So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase."  Now here the word characterizes the word as seed and water.  Which to me represents a continual intake of the word.  And God gives increase to the seed that is planted and watered.  And you see that in Joshua 1:8 "This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth(plant and water); but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein; for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success."

He was going to make his way prosperous by keeping the word in his mouth.  By the planting and watering of the seed of the word.  When you plant and water the seed of the word something is suppose to come forth.  You see the same thing in Psalm 1:1-3 notice it says he that meditates in the word will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water that bringeth forth his fruit(notice you have seed, water, and increase by the word).  In Romans 4:19 it says, "And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about a hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb."  So, they both had conditions in their bodies that prevented them from having children, but God said they would have a child.  What did God do, He changed their names to fit what He had spoken because back then names meant something or you could say He gave them seed to sow and water.  And by the planting and watering of that seed healing came forth because they had a child.  He gave them something to say or sow that was contrary to their condition.  Abraham means father of a great multitude and Sarah means Princess of the multitude.  Notice, their healing was in the seed God provided and your healing is in the seeds God has provided like Isaiah 53:4,5 1Peter 2:24 Galatians 3:13. So, when things don't look like what God has said that's the time to plant and water the seed of the word because your healing is in it.

Don't Be Snared By Your Words

Don't use your words to hold you in bondage, but use your words to free you from them.  The Bible tells you that "You are snared by the words of your mouth."  Your words can keep you in a situation or condition or can free you from them.  In my own case years ago I was eating bananas just fine, but this one time I ate one and got sick to my stomach.  And for awhile everytime someone offered me something with bananas in them I was quick to say, "I can't eat them" or "They make me sick to my stomach." And sure enough from that time on if I just took a few bites of a banana I got sick to my stomach.  But, one day I was watching TV and the man preaching was preaching on- The power of positive confession.  And he described me perfectly when he said, "You probably ate something one time and got sick and started confessing that you can't eat it."  So, what did I do I changed my words.  I started confessing that I can eat bananas and after awhile of confessing that one day I was led to eat one so I did, then I had another one and sure enough I could eat them again and I still can.  Notice, I was keeping myself in bondage by my own words.  Proverbs 18:21 says, "Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and those that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."  I was not able to eat the fruit of bananas because I was eating the fruit of my lips.

I've had a sickness changed by confessing God's word.  I had a serious condition that needed healing and again thank God I came across a teaching that led to me receiving my healing.  He was teaching on using God's word as medicine as in Proverbs 4:20-22 and God's word being seed that you plant and water by speaking it as in 1Corinthians 3:6-8.  So, daily I would do just as those scriptures said, I would look at the word with my eyes and keep it in my ears by confessing it.  I didn't fully understand what I was doing but I was determined to just do it and after awhile of confessing God's healing that condition was gone.  So, you don't have to just put up with things as they are you can take the word of God and change them.

Put The Word On It

Sometimes as you go through life you find yourself in times of trouble and you try everything you know to do, but let me make a suggestion, put the word on it.  In Romans 10:6-8 Paul says, "But the righteousness which is of faith speaketh on this wise, Say not in thine heart, Who shall ascend into heaven? (that is, to bring Christ down from above:) Or, Who shall descend into the deep? (that is to bring up Christ again from the dead.)  But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is the word of faith which we preach." In other words you don't have to call Jesus back from the dead, but put the word on it.  Put the word on that sickness and the word will do the job. In Proverbs 4:20-22 the scripture says to attend to his word, keep it in your eyes and ears, and keep it in the midst of your heart for it is life to those that find them and health to all their flesh.  The word of God has power in it and when you put it in your heart(spirit) it releases the power that's in it.  Like, for example when you feed your body, when the food enters into you the vitamins are extracted and distributed throughout your body.  Well, when you feed your spirit the same things happens, the word of God is anointed and when it enters your spirit the anointing is released into your body.  And the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing (Isaiah 10:27).
Put the word on your problem.  In Proverbs 12:6 it says, "The mouth of the upright will deliver them."  Your mouth will deliver you if the word of God is in it.  It's the word of God that will accomplish (Isaiah 55:11).  In time of depression put the word on it for "A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth" (Proverbs 15:23).  In times of worry put the word on it for "Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles" (Proverbs 21:23).  As you can see the word will not only effect your circumstances, but it will effect you mentally, physically, and spiritually. If you want your situation to turn for the better you are going to have to put the right words in your mouth.  In James 3:4,5 he compares your tongue to the rudder of a ship, if you want to change where you are heading then you have to turn the rudder and if you want to change that situation you are going to have to put the right words in your mouth.  God's word is quick(alive) and powerful (Hebrews 4:12).  No matter how fierce the storms of life may be the word of God in your mouth spoken out of a heart of belief will change it (Mark 11:23).

Are You Blessing Or Cursing Yourself

What are you saying about yourself and circumstances, because what you say determines whether you are blessing or cursing yourself. When God blessed Adam and Eve He blessed them saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that creepeth upon the earth." When Jesus cursed the fig tree he said unto it, "No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever." And that's the same way you bless and curse, they both come out of your mouth. Your words determine whether you see blessings or curses. 1Peter 3:10 says, "For he that will love life and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile." That is a principle, so you could say if you want to see blessings keep your tongue from speaking curses. Don't tell me what you say is not important, Proverbs 30:32 says, "If thou hast done foolishly in lifting up thyself, or if thou hast thought evil, lay thy hand upon thy mouth." Notice what he's saying, don't speak evil. The good and blessing you want to see speak it. Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law and the redeemed are instructed to speak their redemption, "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so" (Psalm 107:2).

Deuteronomy 30:19 says, "I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you death and life, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live." You choose death or life and blessing or cursing by your tongue. Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof (Proverbs 18:21). Out of the same mouth comes blessing and cursing. My bretheren, these things ought not so be (James 3:10). Don't use the power of the tongue to speak death and curses. God instructs you to speak life and blessings, because He knows you will eat the fruit of your lips. That's why God told the people "Let the weak say, I am strong" (Joel 3:10). So what are you speaking- Everytime around this time of year I get sick, or I can never hold on to money. Why don't you put the word in your mouth and make your way prosperous, like God told Joshua (Joshua 1:8). Speak unto Aaron and unto his sons, saying On this wise ye shall bless the children of Isreal, saying, unto them... (Numbers 6:23). Likewise, speak to and bless your finances, your body, and your family.

It's Not Just Words But Power

God's word is not just words, but power. The same power that formed the earth is in The Bible. But when you refuse to put it on your lips all that power goes to waste. God said his word would not return to him void, but it shall accomplish what he pleases (Isaiah 55:11). Well, for it to accomplish what God pleases it has to have power. But notice it shall accomplish when it is returned to him. How is it returned to him? When you speak it you are returning his word to him. So every day you don't put the word of God on your lips you fail to put the power of God to work for you.


The same power that created the universe is capable of making your life just what God called for. But without the word on your lips it will not accomplish for you. The word of God is capable of creating a life of health, joy, and peace. God gave you his word which is his power and a free will. You take his power and create what you want in your life. If you are sick create healing in your body. The scripture "By whose stripes ye were healed" has enough power in it to heal any sickness. If you're lacking finances take the word and create prosperity. If you want success you create it in your life. Isn't that what God told Joshua "This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous and then thou shalt have good success." Notice, the success he was to have was dependent on the word coming out of his mouth. Don't treat the word of God like it's just words, but power. Imagine how much better your life would be if you did what God said, keep his word in your mouth.

Speak the word and let it create for you. Let the word do it's job. It's capable of bringing into your life exactly what God has already called for. But it has to be on your lips to do it. Sometimes we see things in the natural, but not the spiritual. For instance, when you go into a dark room the first thing you do is flip the light switch. Failure to do so can cause you to stumble in darkness even with all the power needed to walk in light is right there. So likewise, failure to put the word on your lips can cause you to walk in sickness, poverty, and all other things God never intended for you to have even though you may know the word of God. But, failure to put the word on your lips keeps the power from working for you. The word of God is not just words, but power.

Send The Word Out Ahead (Let The Word Clear Your Path)

There's an old spiritual hymn that goes "I'm climbing up the rough side of the mountain". And many people related with that, that you just have to go through life struggling. But that goes against the bible. And that's been the problem too many mountain climbers and not enough mountains movers. Instead of climbing the mountain why not get rid of it. Let's see what God has to say about the mountains in your life. God said every mountain and hill shall be made low (Isa. 40:4). How? The Bible says the hills melted like wax at the presence of the Lord (Ps.97:5). And God and his word are one in the same (John 1:1). They melted like wax because his word is like fire (Jer. 23:29). Your mountains melt at God's word. And that rough side shall be made plain (or smooth). How? By the hammer of the word (Jer. 23:29). In Isaiah 41:7 notice God says he that smootheth with the hammer. And the crooked shall be made straight for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it. And why did God speak it? So that you would have something to say (Heb 13:6). Notice it says that God spoke so that you would boldly proclaim. What is God doing? He's putting his word in your mouth (Isa. 51:16). And when his word is in your mouth it shall accomplish (Isa. 55:10,11). But that word has to be spoken with faith (Mark 11:23). And faith cometh by hearing the word of God (Rom. 10:17). It's a lot easier to walk on a flat, straight, smooth surface that a high, rough, crooked mountain. God don't want you struggling he wants to give you rest (Matt. 11:28).

So send the word out ahead of you. Let the word clear your path. Wherever you send your words you will follow (James 3:3,4)
