People spend billions every year to retain or restore health. No one wants to be sick. Yet, religion often tells us that God is either causing sickness or allowing it for a reason. But that’s not true—GOD WANTS YOU WELL.
welcome to gospel truth with Andrew
Wommack a teaching ministry that focuses
on God’s unconditional love and grace
and now here’s Andrew welcome to our
Wednesday’s broadcast of the gospel
truth today I’m continuing a series that
I started this last Monday talking about
God wants you well I’m excited about
this because I tell you I have seen a
lot of miraculous things happen in this
area of healing and every time that God
manifests manifest a miraculous healing
and I mean people get healed they get
causes people to glorify God you know on
my program yesterday I was using the
scriptures out of Mark chapter 2 where
this man was let down through the roof
and it says when the people saw it they
glorified God and said we’ve never seen
it on this fashion other instances
people says man he speaks with authority
these aren’t just words this isn’t just
a sermon but it has so much power it
changes people’s lives people are being
healed and this is my experience too
that every time you see a miraculous
healing people get born again people
begin to commit their lives to the Lord
healing in itself is not the goal now I
am NOT saying that healing is
unimportant but I am saying that it
serves a purpose to illustrate that if
God can touch the physical bodies and
heal us in this physical realm then
certainly he can do even the greater
spiritual things and the things that are
spoken about eternity are also true and
we need healing to help verify and
demonstrate that the things we’re saying
about God able to forgive a person sins
and take care of your emotions and heal
your marriages and all of these other
things we need demonstration and proof
that these things are true
we got a skeptical world that to a large
degree has just written the church off
because they say all of these things but
there’s no ability to demonstrate it
they aren’t demonstrating it and so it’s
easy to say that you’re wrong
because there’s no way to really prove
it but when you start proclaiming that
God not only wants to deal with
spiritual and eternal things but he
wants to heal your bodies and people
start walking in the miraculous power of
God and miracles start happening and the
dead are raised and the blind eyes are
open and the Deaf ears are open I
guarantee you there are multitudes
multitudes of people today that have
been born again because they have seen
the demonstration of God’s healing power
there are great miracles happening I
know that there are many of you think
all I’ve never seen them and if this
stuff is true why isn’t it on the news
you know I’ve seen three people raised
from the dead and I’ve had people say
well if that’s true then why don’t you
go to the news and why don’t you tell
them and you know what there is a
disbelief there is a spirit of
Antichrist that is why I’d work in this
world and you aren’t going to get the
news media and all of these things to
start proclaiming these healings for one
thing they would look at it is a
liability issue if they start saying
this well then what would happen if this
wasn’t true if it wasn’t accurate and
they’re going to just take the the
easiest way out they aren’t going to
take a stand they would be criticized
people would turn off their broadcasts
because there’s people that just
absolutely believe that God isn’t real
or if God exists that he doesn’t want to
do anything about our physical situation
and heal us it’s a convenient way of
believing it’s a way of coping with all
of the tragedy and the death and the
hurt and the pain and the sickness and
the disease rather than try and believe
God which it takes effort and you would
have to study the word and you couldn’t
just sit there and watch as the stomach
turns on the television and x-rated and
r-rated things and you couldn’t be a
fanatic and follow all of these things
it would take some effort to renew your
mind and to overcome your unbelief and
to seek God it takes effort to see the
power of God in manifestation and rather
than put forth that effort there’s
people that would rather just Excel
those things don’t happen and you know
we just have to depend upon the doctors
and medicine and and you can’t trust a
supernatural thing and it’s a convenient
way to live you can still be carnal you
don’t have to seek God you can pray lord
if it be your
well and if you get here well then you
say thank you Jesus and if you die well
you know it must have been God’s will
that’s a convenient way of dealing with
things you have to take no
responsibility it doesn’t take any
effort on your part but I’m telling you
it’s worth the effort and again I say
I’ve seen thousands and thousands of
people healed and people are born again
all over the world because of these
healings miracles are happening and God
used miracles to draw people unto
himself we use those verses yesterday
let me just continue reading I didn’t
read all of this in John chapter 10 but
Jesus was being grilled about what
writing and what authority do you have
to do all of this and he said they asked
him says are you really the Christ and
in John chapter 10 verse 25 he says I
told you and you believe not the works
that I do in my father’s name they bear
witness of me and so they kept
interacting with them and saying no you
aren’t the Christ you don’t have the
right you’re doing this through the
power of the devil etc so jesus answered
them in verse 34 and he says is it not
written in your law I said you were gods
if he called them gods unto whom the
Word of God came in the scripture cannot
be broken say ye of him whom the father
hath sanctified and sent into the world
thou blasphemous because I said I am the
son of God well that’s a great teaching
I ain’t got time to go into that in
verse 37 it says if I do not the works
of my father believe me not you know if
we were to just take that statement
right there by Jesus and apply this to
most ministers today and if we said if
ministers aren’t doing the works of the
father as demonstrated through Jesus now
what did Jesus do well there’s of course
many many instances but one on that kind
of summarizes it is acts 10:38 it says
how that God anointed Jesus of Nazareth
with power and with the Holy Ghost who
went about doing good healing all that
were oppressed of the devil part of how
Jesus did the works of his father was
that he went around healing all not some
but all who were oppressed to the devil
and he said here if I don’t do the works
of my father which part of that work was
healing all that were oppressed of the
devil believe me not
if we were to just apply this to
ministers today and say man if you are
not demonstrating the supernatural power
of God then don’t listen to them you
know what there’s a lot of Ministers
that if we were to apply that same
standard to them today nobody would be
listening to them there’s huge amounts
of people that have a word that they
preach but they don’t back it up with
any power or demonstration in the
physical natural realm and Jesus is
saying if I’m not doing this if I can’t
demonstrate the power of God then don’t
listen to me that’s one of the reasons
that Jesus made the impact that he did
is because he not only had something
that he preached but he lived it there
was power and demonstration in his life
and because I would man it shook the
entire nation it shook multiple nations
and of course here we are 2,000 years
later and Jesus is still the central
figure of the human race in the next
verse it says in verse 38 but if I do
talking about if I do the works of my
father though you believe not me believe
the works that you may know and believe
that the father is in me and I on him
Jesus used the miracles that he did and
said even if you aren’t going to believe
my words will then believe my works
believe this demonstration how do you
reconcile the fact that people are
raised from the dead blind eyes are open
and deaf ears are open in the lame walk
and the dumb talk how do you deal with
that it had to be demonstration of the
supernatural power of God and that’s
what Jesus is saying even if you won’t
believe my words believe because you see
the demonstration of the power of God
you know you’ll hear people today say
well now wait a minute the devil can
also do these things I’ve never seen
people healed by the power of the devil
I don’t doubt that maybe it could happen
I don’t know but I’m telling you what
you know I remember when I received the
baptism of the Holy Spirit and started
speaking in tongues and people says you
got to watch that stuff that’s of that
devil and you know I’ve never been into
a bar and heard those people in there
speaking in tongues I’ve never been
where they’re you know doing all this
stuff people in bars don’t speak in
tongues people these gangbangers they
aren’t speaking in tongues you’ll hear
this criticism often that all this is
the devil boys showed me the devil’s
crowd that they are healing people
showed me that the miraculous power of
God you can’t do it it’s not happening
that’s a false thing and some people are
afraid and saying well it’s not only God
who does is it you know Jesus said you
can believe me because you see these
works when you start seeing the
miraculous power of God manifests
through a person it’s because God’s
anointing is on them Satan isn’t healing
the sick Satan isn’t causing people to
receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit
and speak in tongues and fall in love
with God and that that’s not the devil
I’ll tell you some of the arguments that
people bring up it just makes you wonder
how dumb can you get and still breathe
forgive me for being blunt and so in
Hebrews chapter 2 it’s talking about
that Jesus is the superior way of God
manifesting himself and how did God
manifest himself through Jesus yes Jesus
spoke like no other men spoke Jesus
spoke words of life but Jesus also
demonstrated the power of God through
miraculous healings he dealt with the
needs of people he provided for people
physically financially and caused them
to prosper Jesus manifested power in
this physical natural life to show that
he could also deal with these greater
spiritual and eternal things and in
Hebrews chapter 2 it starts talking
about that since Jesus is the greatest
manifestation of God we ought to give
more earnest heed to the things which we
have heard lest at any time we should
let them slip for if the word spoken by
Angels was steadfast this time at the
Old Testament law and the Old Testament
doctrine if all of those things were
steadfast in every transgression and
disobedience received a just recompense
of reward how shall we escape if we
neglect so great salvation which at the
first began to be spoken by the Lord and
was confirmed unto us by them that hurt
him now here it is talking about that
Jesus himself spoke the word and it says
that those who came after him his
disciples and apostles they confirmed it
and how did God bear witness in the next
verse it says God also bearing them
witness both with signs and wonders and
divers miracles and gifts of the Holy
Ghost according to his own will now
again here it is talking about miracles
and this is talking about signs and
wonders and if you even have ever read
the Gospels and the book of Acts you
cannot deny the fact that healing was
one of the central things that Jesus did
healing is one of the central things
that the disciples did and this verse is
saying that God used those healings to
confirm the word the word confirmed
means to establish to verify to prove
that these things that are being spoken
are real because if you can do if you
can cause a physical manifestation if
someone who is blind all of a sudden can
see if someone who is deaf all of a
sudden can hear it is a demonstration
that those things you’re saying about
the greater merit matters of the soul
the spiritual realm your emotions if you
can do those physical things then you
can also do those non-physical
intangible things on the inside of
people you know at our recent gospel
truth seminar that I held in Phoenix I
forget all of the details but we saw
hundreds and hundreds of people heal in
one night I had I was calling out
healings and I spoke that there are
people here being healed of deafness and
I don’t know how many people stood there
could have been 100 but there was at
least 50 I don’t know there was a lot of
people that stood and of course I
assumed that most of them weren’t
totally deaf are they you know I didn’t
have a interpreter for the deaf there so
they probably had to have some degree of
hearing but there was at least fifty to
a hundred people that stood for prayer
and out of those I had people say all
right if you can already tell that
you’re healed if your hearing has
already improved removed your hearing
aids check yourself and out of those
people I’m not sure how many but there
was at least thirty that instantly were
healed and they could hear better one of
them sent me an email and they were some
friends of mine from a long time ago and
they had this guy had hearing aids in
both ears
and with these hearing aids he still was
having trouble hearing and he went home
that night he didn’t he wasn’t one of
those that testified that he was
instantly healed but the next morning
when he got up and I think went to the
mailbox or something he could hear the
crickets he could hear all of these
sounds he hadn’t put his hearing aids in
and his hearing was totally restored and
you know why when we saw those miracles
happen
you know what the crowds increased
people started coming forward
we had people born again we had people
baptized in the Holy Spirit people fell
in love with God I’m not saying that
healing is unimportant but I’m saying
healing is a stepping stone to even
greater things and that’s what these
verses are saying it’s what Jesus said
of himself he says even if you aren’t
going to believe me because of the words
that I speak believe me because of these
miracles and if I’m not doing miracles
well then don’t listen to me boy if we
were to apply that to the average
preacher today I guarantee there
wouldn’t be very many preachers out
there minister look at this passage of
Scripture in mark chapter 16 this is
some of Jesus last instructions to his
disciples
it was after his resurrection and as he
was being caught up into heaven these
are some of the very last words that he
said to his disciples before being taken
back into heaven and he said in mark
chapter 16 and in verse 15 it says he
said unto them go you into all the world
and preach the gospel to every creature
he that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved he that believeth not shall be
damned and as he was talking about
preaching the gospel in the very next
verse verse 17 and these signs shall
follow them that believe in my name they
shall cast out Devils they shall speak
with new tongues they shall take up
serpents and if they drink any deadly
thing it shall not hurt them they shall
lay hands on the sick and they shall
recover right in the context of go
preach the gospel to every living
creature he says and these signs are
going to follow those who are truly
preaching the Word of God miraculous
things are going to happen in one of
those things the last thing listed is
that you’re going to lay hands on the
sick and that they shall recover this is
how the Lord says
the gospel is supposed to be preached
and he said he would confirm the word
with these things if you keep on reading
in verse 19 he says so then after the
Lord had spoken unto them he was
received up into heaven and sat on the
right hand of God and they went forth
and preached everywhere the Lord working
with them and confirming the word with
signs following amen
this is how the gospel began the Lord of
course operated in the supernatural
power of God and went about doing good
healing all that were oppressed of the
devil Acts chapter 10 verse 38 then he
told his disciples you go preach the
gospel and as you go you lay hands on
the sick and they shall recover and then
it says that when they went forth and
preached God confirmed the word in other
words they didn’t just preach it in word
but they demonstrated the power of God
by the healing people and when people
saw that this is supernatural you know
none of those disciples in themselves
they they couldn’t have healed a gnat
with their own power and ability but
then they would pray in the name of
Jesus and the dead would be raised and
the blind eyes would be open and
miracles would happen and God would use
that to confirm that this is
supernatural that the things that
they’re preaching are true and because
of it people would be born again and
this is how the early New Testament
church started and I mean in a very
short period of time they turn the world
right-side up and if you read the book
of Acts every single one of them went
forth and did miracles they saw the
power of God in manifestation there’s a
passage in John chapter 20 or 21 I
forget the exact reference I could find
it but anyway it says that these things
were written about Jesus and the
miracles that he did just as a testimony
but it says if everything that Jesus did
if all of the miracles that he did would
be written matter of fact here it is
right here let me just read this to you
in John chapter 21 in verse 25 it says
and there are also many other things
which Jesus did the which if they should
be written every one I suppose that even
the world itself could not contain the
books that should be written what a
statement Jesus did so much the Gospels
are just a representation in one of the
dominant things in the Gospels is
healing jesus healed Jr’s his daughter
and raised her from the dead raised the
widow’s son from the dead at the city of
Nan jesus healed the blind the Deaf the
lame the lepers Jesus did miracles
miracles miracles and this is just a
very small representation if they would
have written down all of them the world
itself couldn’t contain the books that
would be that would be needed to write
it all down
Jesus operated in the supernatural power
of God His disciples operated in the
supernatural power of God and if we were
true disciples of Jesus today we would
be operating in the power of God now
that statement I believe is true but it
could be used to condemn yourself or to
condemn someone else none of us do
things perfectly you know what I can
truthfully say that I am seeing the
power of God manifest in my life like I
gave testimony in one service this year
we saw over 30 people who had problems
with deafness manifest a healing nearly
instantly I am seeing the power of God
operate but you know what like I said if
there was 50 or a hundred people that
stood there was only 30 that manifested
an instant healing some of them I’m sure
since that time have seen the healing
come but still it’s not every single
person and it says Jesus went about
healing all that were oppressed of the
devil there isn’t a single instance that
Jesus didn’t heal them all that would
allow it now there is an instance where
Jesus wanted to produce healing and
people wouldn’t receive it but that
wasn’t his fault
Jesus He healed them all I don’t see
this manifest completely and there’s
multiple reasons for it I know some of
the reasons I could explain that and as
we go through this series I will be
talking about things that hinder healing
and why not every person receives a
healing and I have some revelation on
this but I still don’t understand it all
and I believe if I had
we’re understanding I would see a
greater number of people heal and so I
could take the very things that I’ve
said and actually condemn myself and say
well you aren’t seeing every person
he’ll I what I’m saying though is I
haven’t arrived but I’ve left I am not
seeing everything as perfectly as it
could be and I’ll accept responsibility
on my part that I’m not all that I
should be but I’m not all that I was I’m
moving in the right direction and I’m
not condemned I’m encouraged
I haven’t arrived but I’ve left and I’m
moving in that direction
and so I’m saying I don’t get condemned
when I say this but at the same time I
don’t sit there and so well you know
that was Jesus and Jesus just doesn’t
want me to operate to the same level and
so if I see one or two people healed and
that’s fine I’m content no I’m not
content I’m still pressing I want to see
greater manifestation of God in my life
I am NOT content but I’m not condemned
and there’s a balance between those two
things you have to you have to receive
these truths I’m saying to the point
that it motivates you to want to do more
but at the same time don’t be so
condemned or hard on yourself that you
just focus on the wire and I doing this
how come our ministers aren’t doing this
and you become so critical in judgmental
that you go out and begin to blast
everybody there are some people that I
really respect that have been faithful
to what they know and have impacted
their world and it made an impact and
yet they don’t operate in the
supernatural and see things happen I
don’t think that’s the way God intended
it to be but faith comes by hearing and
hearing by the Word of God Romans 10:17
and we live in a day and age that this
miraculous healing power of God has not
been preached to the majority of people
and there are some people that literally
aren’t operating in it because they
haven’t heard this they haven’t got the
revelation and so they are faithful with
what they know and I believe that God
loves them and when he they enter into
heaven God’s going to say well done thou
good and faithful servant they were
faithful to what they knew to do did
that mean that they did everything they
were supposed to do no I believe that
every minister
every minister should be seeing the
miraculous power of God manifest in
their life they ought to have
testimonies of people that are healed
and blind eyes that are open in death
ears that are opening people that are
raised from the dead we were commanded
to do that Matthew chapter 10 verse 8 it
says go preach the gospel heal the sick
cleanse the lepers raise the dead in the
same way that we’re supposed to preach
the gospel we’re supposed to heal the
sick cleanse lepers and raise the dead
Jesus said in John chapter 14 verse 12
that the works that he did we would do
also and even greater works than these
some people want to argue that the
greater works are being on radio and
television which I don’t believe that is
what it’s talking about but even if you
believe that what are you going to do
with the part of that verse it says the
works that I do show you do also we are
supposed to be doing the works of Jesus
and I’m teaching this series on God
