JOY: Now I'm traveling with Kenneth Copland ministries. I'm
singing on a praise and worship team there. So, I'm
spreading the good news through song.
(Singing) I know my God has made the way for
me. I know my God has made the way for me.
ANNOUNCER: Settle the issue today. It's
God's perfect will for you to be healed, and
the word itself is the only evidence you need. Join
Kenneth Copland on the Believer's Voice of Victory.
Take hold of the word of God. Jesus is the healer.
KENNETH: Let's go to Matthew, Chapter eight. Now,
we're looking here at how easy it is
to receive from Jesus. And, it is the perfect will
of God. Matthew, eight, we read the second verse.
Let's go down to the fifth verse. When Jesus was entered
into Capernaum, home. There came to him a centurion beseeching
him, and saying "Lord, my servant lieth at home, sick of
the palsy, grievously tormented." Jesus said, "I
will!" Now, notice that, I will. "I will come and heal him." He
didn't even ask him to. Are you listening? He said I'll come and
heal him. The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I'm not worthy
that you should come unto my roof." Now see, he realized that
he's not a Jew. But, he knew enough about the word, and
you'll see why as we read these accounts of him. Speak the word
only and my servant shall be healed. I am a man under
authority, having soldiers unto me. I say to this man, "go", and
he goeth. To another "come," and he cometh. And, to my servant,
"do this" and he does it. When Jesus heard it he marveled and
said to them that followed, and that included his own disciples.
"Verily I say unto you, I've not found so great faith, not in
Israel." Praise God. Now then, let's go over to Luke 7:1. Now,
when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the
people he went home. Don't you love it? A certain centurion
servant who was dear unto him was sick and ready to die. When
he had heard of Jesus he sent unto him the elders of the Jews
beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant. When
they came to Jesus they besought him instantly saying that he was
worthy for whom he should do this, for he loveth our nation
and, he hath built us a synagogue. So, this is a man
that as a Jewish proselyte, he was spending time in the
synagogue. Now, that's the synagogue where Jairus was a
leader of the synagogue. Isn't that interesting? So, now he
knows that since he's not under the Abrahamic covenant that he's
not covenant worthy of Jesus coming into his house. Now,
don't get the idea that that'll work for you. Lord, I'm just
unworthy ... no. Don't you start that. No sir. Are you born
again? CONGREGATION: Yes. KENNETH: Then, you're a new
creature. God didn't make any new creatures unworthy. No, he
bore our sins in his own body on the tree. Amen. Any man that's
in Christ is a new creature, a new creation. Old things have
passed away, behold all things become new, and all things are
of God. He who knew no sin was made to be sin for us that we
might be made the righteousness of God in him. Now, don't get
over into that unworthy business. That's a strong badge
of unbelief. Now, when they said he built us a synagogue, he
loves our nation. Jesus went with them, and when he was not
far from the house the centurion sent friends to him saying,
"Trouble not thy self. I'm not worthy that that should come
under my roof." Wherefore, neither thought I myself worthy
to come unto thee. But, say in a word, and my servant shall be
healed. For I also am a man under authority. Having unto me
soldiers and I say to one, "go" and he goes. To another, "come",
and he comes. And, to my servant, "do this", and he does
it. When Jesus heard these things he marveled at him. And
turned him about and said unto the people that followed him, "I
say unto you, I have not found so great faith. No, not in
Israel." Praise God. And, they that were sent, returning to the
house, found the servant whole that had been sick. So, why was
this a marvel to Jesus? Why did he marvel at that faith? Because
he demanded no evidence other than the word. You say the word,
and my servant will be healed. He recognized the authority of
the word of God. Now, you and I not only have the authority of
the word, we have the authority of the name, hallelujah. Thank
you Lord Jesus. Turn in your bibles to Matthew, Chapter nine,
verse two. Matthew nine, second verse. We'll I'll read the first
verse. He entered into a ship and passed over, and came into
his own city, which would be? Capernaum. And, behold they
brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying in a bed. Jesus
seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy, "Son, be of
good cheer. Cheer up! They sins be forgiven thee." The whole
certain of the scribe said within themselves, "This man
blasphemeth." Jesus knowing their thoughts said, "Where for
think ye evil in your heart? For whether is easier to say thy
sins be forgiven thee, or to say arise and walk? But that you may
know that the son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins."
Then saith he to the sick of the palsy, "Arise, take up your bed,
and go to thine house." He arose and departed to his house. When
the multitude saw it they marveled and glorified God,
which had given such power unto men. All right. Now, Mark,
chapter two. And, first verse. Now, Matthew said that he said,
"Cheer up!" Amen. Cheer up, be of good cheer. Your sins are
forgiven. And again, he entered into Capernaum after some days
and it was noised that he was in the house. So, he's at home?
Now, I thought for a long time that this was a hostile crowd.
But, it was not. He was not in a synagogue. They had come to his
place. Amen. This is ... this is very, very important. And ...
and, straight way, many were gathered together in so much
there was no room to receive them. No, not so much as a bout
the door. And, he preached the word unto them. And, they come
unto him bringing one sick of the palsy, which was born of
four. When they could not come nigh unto him for the press,
they uncovered the roof where he was. When they had broken it up,
they let down the bed where in the sick of the palsy lay. When
Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy,
"Son, thy sins be forgiven thee." Now, can't you see him?
He's standing up there preaching the word. The place is jam
packed. They've come in there from the whole area. And, you
know, he ... can't you see the smile on his face? They're
letting this guy down in front of him, and he's standing there
... and before they ... before they can even get him down
before Jesus, can't you just see him? "Hey! Son, cheer up! Your
sins are forgiven!" Before he ever got to the floor. Now,
those present, that distracted them. Now, we know what he's
teaching. The spirit of the Lord is upon me. For he has anointed
me. So, you know he took them into the ... he took them into
the book of Isiah. He's ... one account said he's preaching.
Another account said he was teaching the word. So, which was
he doing? Both. I noticed this in the eight chapter of the book
of Luke, he's ... he's teaching the sower sows the word, and
suddenly it said he shouted with a loud voice, "He that has ears
that hear, let him hear!" That's not teaching. That's preaching.
He's a preacher. That's where we get that. That's when we get
excited we holler loud. You understand what I'm saying! We
get it from him. Amen. When you boys get older, and you get up
and you start preaching you going to start shouting loud
too. Amen. Just like that old man Copland does. You're like
your daddy though. Amen. Thank you Lord Jesus. Amen?
CONGREGATION: Amen. KENNETH: So, and he's an excited man. Oh,
he'd preach. Amen. CONGREGATION: Amen. KENNETH: And teach, and
heal. CONGREGATION: Amen! KENNETH: Thank you Lord. Now,
see I done run off from my book. Get excited, glory to God. Thank
you Lord Jesus. Oh Lord, where was I? Okay. Yeah. Now, when he
said that it distracted them. They didn't get out of sorts
with him, but their religion drew their attention and they
began to think instead of listen. Now, it didn't have to
be a theological thing. You can just get distracted. I've seen
it happen. You get right into ... and some little disturbance
take place in the congregation. People turn around and look.
That's because you're not committed. Now, when you make a
decision to be a doer of the word, and not just a hearer only
... I mean, they can set ... somebody set a firecracker off
underneath a pew and it wouldn't make any difference. You still
locked into the word of God. CONGREGATION: Amen. KENNETH:
Amen. Just don't ... you just don't pay any attention to
anything else. But see, they got distracted. So now, and follow
this with me. You can do it. It can be something silly. Gloria's
best friend, she ... baby's been a hair dresser since she was a
little girl. She's done Gloria's hair for I don't know how many
years. So, she told me back when I was talking about this, she
said, "I really have to be careful because I keep from
looking at people's hair." You know, she gets fixed on a ...
she sees something about somebody's hair, and she gets to
thinking about it. You know, I wonder how they did that? Or,
why did they do that? Or, you know, just enough of the devil
to distract you just enough where you miss something that's
important that was feeding your faith. You get over in your
mind, yet out of your spirit, and get over into your carnal
mind. Amen. And, to be carnally minded is death. So, that's what
was happening to them. But, Jesus perceived it, and
ministered to them. Now then, this man speaks blasphemes,
verse seven. Who can forgive sins but God only? Immediately
when Jesus perceived in his spirit that they sow reason
within themselves, he said unto them, "Why reason these things
in your hearts? Whether is it easier to say to the sick of the
palsy, thy sins be forgiven thee? Or to say, arise. Take up
your bed and walk. But that you may know that the son of man
hath power on earth it forgive sin." He saith to the sick of
the palsy, "I say unto thee." Now, notice he's using his words
as tools. He didn't just say, "Arise." He said, "I say unto
you." So, we know he believed it in his heart. And, he said it
with his mouth, and knew it would come to pass if the man
would act on it. If he would act on it, because when he said it,
he's still paralyzed. He's still lying there ... he had to act.
Now, and immediately he arose. Took up the bed, went forth
before them all, in so much they were all amazed and glorified
God saying we never saw it on this fashion. So, see, they were
amazed and glorified God. They were not a hostile crowd. Now,
let's go to the book of Luke, in the fifth chapter again, please.
Luke 5:17. And it came to pass on a certain day as he was
teaching. So, we found out that he preached and that he's
teaching. That there were pharisees and doctors of the law
sitting by, which will come out of every town of Galilee and
Judah, and Jerusalem. Amen. And, the power of the Lord was
present to heal them. The power of the Lord was present to heal
them. Well, how was the power present? Well, Jesus was there.
The power was present. Amen? It's his will for all them to be
healed. And, the word was there. So, praise God. They were
hearing the word. Now, up until they got interrupted we don't
know how long that had been. But, we do know that he was
preaching and teaching. Amen? And preaching and teaching the
blessing of Abraham, and not the law. Amen? So, since that was
happening, we know faith was coming because they were not
hostile. They had come to his home to hear him. Amen. Oh!
Glory be to God. So, we know faith was coming. Now, Jesus is
the healer, and he's the same yesterday, today, and forever.
But he needs you to receive him.
DELWIN: I'm Delwin Williams. This is my lovely
wife, Joy. When I was around 30 years old I started searching. I
was in my medical training as a psychiatrist, and I realized I
didn't have a lot of answers for certain questions that people
were dealing with. I started seeing the Kenneth Copland
Ministries on television. They gave me information in terms of
understanding the human mind in some ways that I wasn't getting
in my training in psychiatry. But, it also helped me to become
a better person. It helped me to develop a closer relationship
with the Lord. JOY: Well, I was in bed that night, and I had
some excruciating pain in my sides. I looked at my husband
and I said, "Something is really wrong here." He started asking
me some questions, and realized I had a fever. Usually means
that I have an infection. So, they looked me over really well
and advised him to take me to a hospital immediately. It took a
long time before they discovered exactly what was going on, and
discovered the E-coli in my blood system. DELWIN: She had a
very serious infection. She was septic throughout her entire
body. That's a very poor prognosis. JOY: They put me on a
morphine drip because the pain was just unbearable. They didn't
know what to do. They just wanted to get to the most
important organs first. Most people, when they have what I
have, they don't survive. DELWIN: I began to realize it's
important not to just believe the prognosis. So, I didn't
accept that prognosis. I encouraged Joy not to accept it,
again because of plugging into a terrific ministry like Kenneth
Copland Ministries, I've realized that God has the
healing power. We needed to stand on his word, in terms of
turning that situation around. JOY: During that time I realized
I had fallen in love with what Jesus was doing for me, and what
he was doing through me, and the gift that he gave me through
song. And, had forgotten all about just the love with him.
And then, the night that I just ... I had gotten to a point
where I didn't want to ... I didn't want to live anymore. I
just said, "I'm ready to go home Father. It's okay. Take me
home." Then, I heard the Lord call my name. He said, "Joy!" I
said, "Yes Lord?" He said, "Do you love me?" I said, "With all
my heart!" He said, "Then feed my sheep." I said, "Oh, I can't
do that. You said that to Peter. I don't know how to do that. I
just want to go home. I just want to go. I don't want to be
here in this pain anymore." Then, the next night almost the
same time, and I heard Jesus call my name again. He said,
"Joy?" I said, "Yes Lord." "Do you love me?" I said, "Yes, with
all my heart." He said, "Then, feed my sheep." I said, "If
that's what you want that's what I'll do for the rest of my life.
You won't have to be concerned about me ever." He came, and he
walked towards me. He took his right hand, and he put it on my
shoulder. He said, "Be healed." DELWIN: That morning we started
to see the effects of her improving. The physicians were
dumbfounded by that because they didn't ... they hadn't done
anything different. They were expecting the worse, but Jesus
had turned it around, and it's exciting. JOY: Well, after I was
released from the hospital my husband and I went to go to get
a status from my gynecologist of the six fibroids. One in which
was about seven centimeters long. She asked if I had had
surgery. We both looked at each other and smiled. Kind of
chuckled. She said, "As if somebody surgically went into
your body, and cut the veins that were feeding the fibroids.
They're dead." She said, "I can barely see them. What happened?"
So, we had a chance to minister to her too. I don't have any
fibroids. I'm pain free. I'm living a life that is just
incredible. I have the...minister at our
music ministry at Eagle Mountain International Church. Now, I'm
traveling with Kenneth Copland Ministries. I'm singing on a
praise and worship team there. So, I'm spreading the good news
through song. And, wherever I go I'm always
telling people how good the Lord is. That
he's faithful. What a joy it is to know him.
ANNOUNCER: We hope you enjoyed today's teaching from Kenneth
Copeland Ministries. And remember Jesus is Lord.
