October 4, 2014 In the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. Matthew 18:16 The Deciding Witness by Kenneth Copeland Youve been there many times, standing in the valley of decision. Perched precariously between victory and defeat. On one side of you is the word of the world authored by Satan that says, for example, Youre not going to get healed. On the other side of you, the Word of God is saying, My Word is Yea and Amen and By His stripes, ye were healed. Who will determine how it all turns out? You will. Youre the establishing witness. I remember a fellow once who wanted me to pray for him. I said, Now the Word says youre healed. He interrupted me and said, Yeah, I know it says that, but Ive got this terrible pain here.... I looked him in the eye and said again, The Word says, By His stripes, you were healed. I know it, he answered, but Ive got this terrible.... I shook my head. Listen, the Word says youre healed! He turned beet red. I KNOW IT SAYS THAT, BUT IVE GOT THIS.... Finally, he stopped and stared at me. He didnt realize it, but hed allowed his physical symptoms to become his evidence. It was what he believed. No matter what the Word said, he believed the thing he could see and feel. But when he got quiet, I said to him, Look, youre wanting me to agree with you and youre mad because I wont. But if I agree with you, youre going to die. Now if youll agree with me and the Bible, we can get you healed. Suddenly he saw it. His eyes lit up. Oh, praise God! I see what you mean. I agree with the Word of God! I put my hands on his head and God healed him instantly. You see, when he finally decided to get in agreement with God, he could have received in his bedroom or driving down the road or anywhere else. He could have received any time he decided to become the establishing witness. You pray and establish your witness. Thats your part. If youll do it, God will back you--and when He backs you, everything else either has to get in line or get out of the way. Youre the deciding witness. What do you say
