And if you look at a Daniel fast, it’s fruits and vegetables and nuts and seeds, and there’s a reason why.  And I know this may sound really ridiculous to you and it may sound like Lindsay is off-the-wall fanatic, but the Lord spoke to me one time and He said, “Will you please learn how to eat?”  And I had energy all of my life.  I mean, I could eat the table and still be thin. And yet I realized, “Well, God, this is so strange because I have no side effects of eating.”

And the Lord said, “You are doing your temple wrong.  I told you how to eat.”  And I thought, “Where?”  For some reason, I’d missed the fact that it was in the Bible.  And I want to encourage you to get the Bible and see what it says about herbs, see what it says about fruits, see what it says about vegetables, see what it says.  You know, in the Bible the word “chicory” means “the liver’s friend.”  Now if God cared so much to make a liver, then He cared enough to make something that would sustain it.

If you are experiencing any form of eating disorder, I believe it’s an attack of satan and I believe there’s a Bible way for you to use common sense.  Go study the Bible.  Go study healing nutrients in the Bible, and find out what God says.  I believe if He made our bodies, He made it to operate properly. And there really is a biblical way to do it. And I just want to encourage you, don’t get discouraged. Don’t get all put out and don’t get worried and say, “God, I’ll never be able to do it right.”  Yes, you will, in Jesus’ name. Let me say this to you, don’t panic.  Don’t get into guilt and condemnation.  Right now don’t get into condemnation.  Take that junk and tell satan that’s a trap from him and to take it back to the pits of hell where it came from.  Food is not your source, God is your source.  And God can teach you, if He has to do it supernaturally how to sustain your physical body properly.

RR: And we’ll set our faith in agreement with you if you’ll call the Abundant Life Prayer Group.

RR: John, I’ve had to learn how to forgive people who have hurt me. And in cases, I’ve had to go to them, the Lord has sent me to them to tell me to ask them to forgive me because I’ve been holding something against them for what they have done to me.

LR: And it’s a seed.

RR: God has released me in other areas of my life when I’ve done that.  It hasn’t been easy.  I remember one man who had said some terrible things about me on television.  This was maybe ten, fifteen years ago … things that weren’t true.  And I was deeply hurt and offended, and then I was bitter at him.  And the Lord spoke to me and said, “Go to him and ask him for forgiveness.” And I said, “Why?  I’ve done nothing.”  He said, “You go ask first.”  So I did.  I asked him to forgive me for holding it against him.  And there was a healing.  He said, “Well, I found out what I said wasn’t true and I’m sorry.”  And there was a healing between us.  But it happened because I went to him.  He was the one in the wrong, not me, yet God sent me to him to ask him to forgive me.

J: That’s amazing because that’s exactly what happened to me in the two deepest things that happened to me.  God told me to go to both men both times and apologize for being critical and judgmental of them.  And when I did, it opened it up and we came together.  We reconciled together, one of whom, you know, the man continued in his ways.  The other one, we are still like this today, and that was the deepest one.

And, by the way, Richard, the person that can hurt you the worst is the person that’s closest to you. We expect the world to do us wrong, but what about another minister?  What about another believer?  See, that’s what David said.  It wasn’t an enemy that reproached me.  Then I could bear it.  David said, “I expect my enemies to hurt me.”

RR: The world would say you only hurt the one you love.

J: Yes, that’s what the world says, that’s right.

LR: You know, for us to be the body of Christ, if the hand starts pounding on the other hand, it has to hurt worse because everybody in the body gets hurt.  You know, if an outsider comes and hits you in the hand, that’s one thing.  But when your hand hits your other hand, you hurt all over.

And then your dad got sick, and he got discouraged.  And you know, he called us one day and said, “Would you pray for me?” And I said And we began to pray, and you prayed and I prayed, and out of my mouth I said, “You are Oral, the healed of the Lord.”  And it clicked. That is a statement of faith that we have to understand how Jesus sees us.  The

RR: And he received the healing too.

LR: world may see you and your dad was healed.  And Amy was healed, by the way.  The world may see us as, you know, brown hair or a black jacket or, you know, evangelist, or see somebody as a nurse or How does God see us?  God sees us as the healed of the Lord.  That’s why He sent Jesus.  And we’ve got to recognize that not everybody knows they’re the healed of the Lord.

And I believe it’s our calling to bring healing to people according to what God’s Word says.  There’s nothing like seeing a sick person made well.  There is no way to describe when you find somebody that’s been sick and God gives them a healing report, there’s no excitement like that.

And I can never see doing anything else with my life except telling people about a saving, healing, delivering God and His Son, Jesus.  I can’t imagine every doing anything else.

RR: Lindsay, the healing ministry is what satan hates the most and it’s what the world needs the most.  How I thank God for an opportunity to open my heart to believe and to pray. The phone lines have been busy, people calling the Abundant Life Prayer Group needing the touch of God in their lives.  If you need prayer, you can call right now and let us know exactly what it is.  If you’re receiving a healing tonight, a testimony, call and let us know what God’s doing in your life. I’m not finished tonight.  There’s a lot more that’s in me tonight.

LR: While your dad was praying, and then while Cheryl was singing, I went over to

RR: And I want her to sing again in a minute.

LR: to the ladies that are here from Cancer Treatment Center across the

RR: Yeah, there’s another group here from

LR: the way.

RR: the hospital.

LR: There’s a group.  And I said last night when we prayed, “I want a surprise report.  I want to hear a surprise.  I want a good report.  I want a surprise tomorrow.”  And the tumors that they had been watching and they’ve seen, and they just took more of all of the testing, she said have shrunk down to little tiny like fingernails.

RR: This is your hour of healing coming to you from the campus of Oral Roberts University.  Father, I give You praise and glory tonight for Your healing touch.  Thank You, Lord, that Your arm has not been shortened to save, to heal, to deliver, and set people free from the crown of their heads to the soles of their feet.  Thank You, Father, for the anointing of God upon Lindsay, upon me tonight, as we minister in the name of Jesus.  Not in our name, but in His name, whose name is above every name named in heaven and earth.  Lindsay, in Jesus’ name I pray it.  Amen and amen.  This is healing night.  I’m expecting healing in the lives of people tonight.

LR:I agree.

RR: And I have some testimonies to share.  This is from right here in Tulsa from last night.  I gave a word of knowledge last night about an ear being healed, and here is Irene calling from Tulsa. “I was listening to your program.  I got a healing from a word of knowledge, through a word of knowledge that you gave concerning an ear opening, and the ear is healed.  This comes from Alpharetta, Georgia.

LR: Where is that?

RR: Now the call comes from Alpharetta, but this is a person who is in the hospital here in Tulsa with cancer.  They’re at the Cancer Treatment Center here in Tulsa, in the hospital with cancer in the spine and the bone.  Apparently they were watching last night in the hospital.  I gave a word.  I prayed over cancer.  You remember, I gave a word about cancer in the bone last night.  And Cheryl got out of the bed apparently and was able to bend over, the first time she’s been able to bend over since April, and literally touched the floor.

And, Cheryl, in the authority of Jesus’ name, I set my faith in agreement.  I’m believing that that’s the start of the miraculous touch of God in your life in the authority of Jesus’ mighty name, and I set my faith in agreement.  Lindsay  and you may feel like praying for others who have cancer right now.

LR: We’ve had people come over from Cancer Treatment Center

RR: And other hospitals.

LR: yeah, and from other hospitals.  There’s another lady here. We were praying I’ll tell you, we were praying and having such a good time last night, I said, “Let’s have a party.”  So they were going to go back to the hospital and say to their other cancer patient friends, “We’re having a party in healing,” you know.  Did you do that?  Yes.  They’re going yes.  You see, in the name of Jesus, you don’t have to let your circumstances talk to you; you begin to talk to your circumstances.  The cancer should not be talking to you.  You need to talk to the cancer.  And the Bible says in Mark 11:23,24 that we speak to our mountain, and then in quotes they told us what to say.  Jesus said, “Speak to your mountain and command it to be cast into the sea, and do not doubt in your heart, but believe the things that you say shall come to pass.”  So in the name of Jesus, we speak to cancer right now.

RR: Right now.

LR: We command it to be thou removed

RR: Yes.

LR:  and be thou cast into the sea.  We do not doubt in our hearts, but we believe the things that we speak according to God’s Word will come to pass in Jesus’ name.  Cancer, you wither and die.  Healthy cells, you raise up in Jesus’ name.  I speak directly to outlaw cancer cells and I command them to cease and desist.  Stop it.  That’s enough, in Jesus’ name.

RR: Hallelujah.

LR: I rebuke it, and the word rebuke means stop it, that’s enough. Cancer, stop it.  That’s enough.  And in Jesus’ name, I speak to your physical body, and according to the Word of God I tell your physical body to be made whole in Jesus’ name.  Amen.

RR:I agree

LR: Amen.

RR: I agree with that prayer.  What have you got, Steve?

STEVE: Richard, we have John from Orlando, Florida, a praise report of a healing that came in last night.  John is on the phone if you’d like to talk with him.

RR: A Vietnam veteran?

STEVE: A Vietnam veteran.

RR: John, can you hear me?

JOHN: Yes, I can.

RR: Hello, John.  Are you in Orlando?

JOHN: Yes, I am.

RR: Were you watching the program?  What happened?

And, by the way, Richard, the person that can hurt you the worst is the person that’s closest to you.  We expect the world to do us wrong, but what about another minister?  What about another believer?  See, that’s what David said.  It wasn’t an enemy that reproached me.  Then I could bear it.  David said, “I expect my enemies to hurt me.”

RR: The world would say you only hurt the one you love.

J: Yes, that’s what the world says, that’s right.

LR: You know, for us to be the body of Christ, if the hand starts pounding on the other hand, it has to hurt worse because everybody in the body gets hurt.  You know, if an outsider comes and hits you in the hand, that’s one thing.  But when your hand hits your other hand, you hurt all over.

RR: Now what does medical sciences say about offenses?  What does medical science say about unforgiveness?

J: Well, medical science literally has found out that there is connected to bitterness and unforgiveness, connected with it is rheumatoid arthritis and cancer.  Now not all cases, but it can be.  There is actually one medical doctor that I know of that is prescribing the Bait of Satan book to his patients, rheumatoid arthritis patients and cancer.

RR: Are you serious?

J: I’m not kidding.  He buys them en masse from our ministry and then actually writes on the prescription, Bait of Satan book, and says to the people, “You have to read this book.”  And people are getting healed. See, in meetings God has had me preach on offenses.  I’ve preached it all over the world, Richard, for the last four, five, six years.  In every service I have preached it, fifty to eighty percent of the people respond fifty to eighty percent in every congregation I’ve been in all over the world!  They respond, saying, “I’m holding an offense.”

And in those services we have seen many times people come up to us, saying, “I was healed of this.  I was healed of that.  God totally delivered me.  I’ve believed for years to be healed of this sickness.  I’m healed of it.” And there’s a scripture, listen to this, in Proverbs, chapter 18, verse 14, the Bible says, “The spirit of the man will sustain him in sickness.”  Now if your spirit is weakened because of offense, if it’s wounded because of offense, it cannot sustain you because out of the spirit, out of the heart flow the issues of life.  And so many are poisoned by the root of bitterness. And bitterness is a root.  It fuels that sickness in that body.
