JESUS WONT DO IT BECAUSE HE HAS ALREADY DONE IT. NOW BELIEVE, ACT ON IT & RECEIVE IT

I remember I was ministering in the state of Oklahoma several years ago (we lived in Texas at the time). I met some preachers I'd known in Texas who had moved to Oklahoma. They were pastors now. One of the pastors told me: "Brother Hagin, we're going to bring a lady from our church who's crippled and can't walk a step. She's seventy-two years old, and she hasn't walked a step in the last four years. The doctor has said she'll never walk again." They brought her to the meeting, and I was ministering each night with an anointing of healing power.

But we had a lot of people to pray for, and when you're praying for a lot of folks, after a while the anointing will sort of lift from you. So by the time I got to this woman, the anointing was gone. Well, I knew then that I couldn't minister to her with the healing anointing. The people who brought her to the meeting came from a distance and they couldn't bring her back, so this was the only time I could minister to her. So I said, "Just sit her down here, and I'll minister to her." As I began ministering to her, among other things, I said to her, "Sister, did you know that you are healed?" I remember she looked at me, and her eyes got big, because here she was sitting there crippled and hadn't walked a step in four years. Her doctor was a specialist, and he had said, "She'll never walk another step the longest day she lives."

When I said, "Sister, did you know you are healed?" she said, "Oh, am I?" I said, "You sure are. You are healed. You're not going to be healed — you are! And I'll prove that to you by the Bible." I opened my Bible to First Peter 2:24 and laid it on her lap. I said to her, "Would you mind reading verse 24 out loud?" And she read aloud, "Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye WERE healed" (1 Peter 2:24). Then I said, "May I ask you a question?" She said, "You may." I said, "Notice, that last clause said, ". . . by whose stripes ye WERE healed. Is 'were' past tense, future tense, or present tense?" "Why," she said, "it's past tense." Then she said, "If we were healed, then I was healed!" You see, if you're going to believe what God said about healing, this is what you're going to believe: You've got to believe that we were healed and that you were healed.

"Yeah," someone said, "but I'm still sick." Well, you're not believing it then. You've gone back to believing what your head tells you. You see, a minute before, you said from your heart, "I believe God's Word." But then you slipped right back over to what your head told you, and you said, "No, I don't have it." You turned right back around and started walking by sight instead of by faith\

When this elderly woman said, "If we were healed, then I was healed," I said, "That's right! That's right!" Then before her mind could take over, I said to her real quickly, "Will you do what I tell you?" I knew Satan would try to put a doubt in her mind and try to take over and dominate her through her mind. Then she would say, "Well, if I was healed, then how come I can't walk? How come I'm still crippled? How come my healing isn't here?" So I said, "Will you do what I tell you?" She said, "I will if it's easy." (Everybody's always looking for something easy!) I said to her, "It's the easiest thing you ever did in your life." I said, "Just lift both of your hands and begin to praise God because you are healed. You're not going to be — you are!" I wish you could have seen that dear woman. As simply as a little child, she lifted her hands, and her face lit up like a neon sign in the dark. She shut her eyes and turned her head upward to Heaven and said, "Oh, dear Lord, ohhh! I'm so glad I'm healed! Oh! I'm so glad I can walk again." She hadn't walked a step yet. But, you see, she was talking out of her heart. She believed what the Word says. She believed according to that which is written — that which is spoken — that by Jesus' stripes she was healed! This dear woman continued: "Lord, You know how tired I got sitting around those four years, helpless. I'm so glad I'm healed and can walk again." You see, she'd gotten it in the right tense now. God's Word works for you when you get it in the right tense. I turned to the congregation and said, "Let's all lift our hands and praise God with her because she is healed." And we all lifted our hands.

The woman continued to say, "Thank You, Lord. I'm so glad I'm no longer helpless. I'm so glad I don't have to be waited on anymore. I'm so glad I can wait on myself. I'm so glad my knees are well. I'm so glad my limbs are well. I'm so glad I'm no longer crippled." We all praised God with her a few moments, and then I turned to her and said, "Now my Sister, arise and walk!" and I just held my hand out to her. Instantly, God and about five hundred people as my witness, she leapt to her feet! She leapt to her feet, and she sat back down real quickly, and then she jumped up again. She'd sit down, and she'd jump up. She was completely healed! I'll tell you, most seventy-two-year-old folks couldn't have done that if they hadn't been crippled. But this woman was jumping up and down.

Then she ran over a few steps and stood there and danced a little jig for joy. For about ten minutes she'd run, dance for joy, and come back and sit down in the same place. Then she'd jump up again. We all just shouted and laughed and cried with her. This dear woman had been sitting around four years and hadn't walked a step. She was helpless, and the doctor said she'd never walk again. But here she was walking and jumping and leaping like the healed man who went into the temple walking and leaping and praising God (Acts 3:. And then somebody went off and lied on me, saying, "You know, that fellow Hagin healed a crippled woman over there at the church last night." I never had a thing in the world to do with that woman's healing! I never had anymore to do with it than you could have had to do with it. All I did was just bring her the Word, and the Word did it!

That elderly woman just found out what belonged to her — what had been hers all the time. Really, in the mind of God, she was healed all those four years she had been sitting around crippled. But she never believed it before. She didn't get her believing in the right tense. All that time she had been seeking healing. Afterward, another dear woman in the same church came to me afterward and said, "Brother Hagin, that crippled woman got healed. Why won't God heal me?" Bless her heart. I feel so sorry for folks like that because I see they've never caught on to what's going on. I feel so sorry I could cry. Very often I get in my car and drive away from a service weeping because folks have never caught on to what you're talking about. So many of them close their minds and don't continue to meditate on God's Word, and God's Word can't go down on the inside of them because they won't let it. This woman had been prayed for several times. I had prayed for her and laid hands on her more than once myself. And she asked, "Why won't God heal me?" I said, "Now Sister, God's done all He's ever going to do about healing you."
"Oh, you mean God's not going to heal me?" I said, "I didn't say that." I said, "He's done all He's ever going to do about healing you." "You mean He's not going to heal me?" I said, "I didn't say that." I said, "He's already done something about your healing. He's already purchased your healing for you. That scripture — the same verse I gave to that crippled woman — said, '. . . by whose stripes ye WERE healed'" (1 Peter 2:24).

"Well, I'll tell you what I think about it," she said. I said, "I know you will. And that's what's got you in the mess you're in. You're going by what you think about it instead of what God said about it." "Well," she said, "I'm going to keep on praying. I believe that sometime, somewhere, some way, God's going to heal me." I said, "No, He isn't! I know He isn't because He already has Certainly, I know the manifestation will come sometime if you'll believe it. But you've got to believe in the right tense because God already has healed you!" God's Word is! Faith is! Faith is present tense: Now faith is (Heb. 11:1)!.

Sure, why not? In the process, make sure you receive the God Hanuman too.



"Devotees visiting Hanuman Temple will be blessed with happiness and all their worries and defects will be eradicated. Sins will fade away
Sufferings will disappear. Generations will flourish by santhanakrishna praapthi. All wealth will be bestowed. Unmarried girls will find a suitable groom. Business will grow and flourish. Since all the Navagrahas are in the tail of Lord Hanuman, any devotee that prays Him will be relieved of their doshams."

Who would not want this? I don't even know what that last sentence means, but I know that I need to follow it!
