You may read some things in this section that you have never heard before. You may read some things you disagree with. You may read some things here that make you angry... but if these things be true, shouldn't we want to know them?

And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take away sickness from the midst of thee. There shall nothing cast their young, or be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfill. Exodus 23:25-26
 
Loosely (but accurately) paraphrased, Exodus 23:25-26 says, when we love the Lord and serve the Lord (key-words love and serve), He will bless our food, water, and health. We are promised we will not die before our time.

Just a quick comment: A few weeks ago, a friend shared that he may have a torn retina, and his Doc was watching to see what happened with it.
 
Butch and I suggested he receive prayer for it. His answer was so typical of what we hear so often. He said, "Oh, it's a simple procedure to have it repaired."
 
Why oh why do God's people not only refuse to seek God first with their physical problems, but shrug it off as unnecessary when it is suggested that they do?
 
When we seek to physicians first, we will only get what they have to give. But when we seek to our God first, we will receive what he has to give.
 
Which would we rather have?

She had suffered many things of many physicians and was nothing bettered but rather grew worse...
 
This woman was a daughter of Abraham who had been bound by Satan....
 
Her sickness was caused by a devil, and no earthly treatment was ever going to heal her.

Watch Out For The "LITTLE FOXES"

May 1, 2007 Praise Report!!! We thought everyone might like to know the rest of the story. Butch had to go for a drug screen for his job last month, and while he was there, he had them check his sugar levels as well. NO SUGAR!!!! PRAiSE GOD! 
Original Prayer Request Update from a year ago--5-9-06Things are going well. Due to High Blood Sugar levels, Butch LOST HIS JOB,  because in order to keep it he has to have a physician's release, and the only physician he'll agree to go to right now is the Great Physician--our creator--which he did immediately, and although JESUS has given him a written release, the DOT will not accept the Word of God as such.

Everywhere we look, we see a sick Church (physically, emotionally and spiritually)--sicker than it's ever been.
 
Saints are suffering and dying from disease by the millions. Prayer lists are long...
 
and mostly health related.
 
Christian families are devastated by strongholds of every sort, and stress over finances is just about universal within the Body of Christ.
 
Now don't try and convince us that God does not heal today and that there are not provisions in his Word for our homes, relationships and finances.
 
We know better.
 
God heals us when we're sick. 
 
God does promise that he is the God who heals us, delivers us from strongholds and and provides for our every need in our homes, relationships and finances... 
 
But this truth has not been taught properly to the Church.
 
There are those who preach prosperity healing and faith today... but don't have the faintest idea what they are talking about. They make a mockery of the Word of God in these areas.
 
You don't agree?
 
Take a close look at their followers--are they any healthier than the general population or even the average Christian?
 
We don't find any encouraging statistics among their disciples. They're just as sick as anyone else. 
 
Maybe you are one of their followers
 
Are you any healthier or more properous than the average Christian?
 
But you know who is healthier and more prosperous than the average Joe? Those purveyors of health, wealth and faith themselves.
 
Why?
 
Because they are  wealthier  by far than the average Christian who made them that way.
 
And because they are wealthier, they are healthier.
 
That is purely statistical fact. The correlation has been well established between wealth and health--the facts are simple--wealthy people can afford better health care than the poor
 
So why aren't their disciples wealthier and healthier than the rest of the Body of Christ?
 
Because they are not teaching them the Word of God.
 
Christian, if you are a disciple of someone who has been teaching you for years that you can be healthier, more prosperous, experience peace and deliverance in your home and relationships, and you have sincerely been a doer of what they teach, but you really can't see any difference in your situation now than when you first began following them--let them go.
 
They are false teachers, preachers, prophets or apostles.
Jesus said you will know them by their fruits.
(not necessarily their words)
 
What is the fruit of their ministry in your life--other than dependence on their teaching for a feel-good fix?
 
It makes you feel really optimistic and seems to boost your faith when you listen to them on T.V, radio, etc., or read their books and publications doesn't it?
 
It is a carrot of false hope they are dangling before you.
Stop chasing after it.
 
How long has it been? 
 
Face the facts--these people are not telling you the truth.
Truth sets free--are you free?
 
 They are not teaching you the Word of God
No matter how much scripture they quote.
 
You have been following their teachings and applying their "principles" for years, haven't you?
 
Yet you are no better off now than when you started--you and your family are still sick, stressed, in debt and maybe even addicted to prescription drugs, pornography or worse. 
 
The Bible is chock full of promises that the Christian can absolutely depend on--it is also full of conditions that must be met, in order to see the fulfillment of these promises (conditions are not the same thing as principles).
 
It is these conditions that are not being taught.
 
Yes, our salvation is free, but it is not cheap--and it was not unconditional--we had to do something to get it--we had to believe on and confess Jesus Christ as the risen Son of God and ask him to save us from our sins.
 
We do not claim, as many do, that all we have to do in order to experience the reality of God's promise of healing, deliverance  from various strongholds, and his prosperity within our families, relationships and finances is to confess it, have faith and support  some 100-fold ministry.
 
How many of you have been praying, confessing, supporting and believing for that 100-fold return for years and you're still sick?
 
Maybe sicker!
 
You are still in bondage to some sin, your family and other relationships are still in a mess, and you don't even want to think about your finances.
 
You've invested a great deal of time, effort and hard earned money chasing after some charismatic teacher, preacher, prophet or apostle's prosperous take on things haven't you?
 
I ask you to take a good look... 
 
from where you are sitting...
 
                                                         Have you really been told the truth?
 
Are you ready yet to stop listening to those who are growing rich and fat off of fleecing God's sheep and using people?
 
Are you ready to listen instead... to someone who has not only experienced the miraculous healing of God... but also the ongoing fulfillment of his promises to be our healer?
 
And...
 
who  refuses to sell the truth?
 
Do you find any pleas for donations on this website?
 
If you have ever been told either of the following things : 
  • God wants to give you a miracle. Release your faith by sending a love offering of $___
  • For a donation of just $___ we can give you a tape recording of your personal word from God....  
  • or anything similar to the above
 
...it was not from God!
 
But don't dispair. The good news is, that it truly is God's will that we prosper and be in health... as our soul prospers.
 
The links in this section focus on the prospering of our souls.
 
Ye shall know the truth, and the truth will make you free!
 
Please read prayerfully
