THE HEALING BALM Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of - TopicsExpress

THE HEALING BALM Behold the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people because of them that dwell in a far country: Is not the Lord in Zion? is not her king in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their graven images, and with strange vanities? The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved. For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt; I am black; astonishment hath taken hold on me. Is there no balm in Gilead? is there no hysician there? why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered? Jeremiah 8:19-22 There is a balm in Gilead, but it is not recognized. Theres a Physician there, but Hes not acknowledged.From the scriptures above, you can see that with the Physician and the balm, your health must be recovered. Just to know the Physician, and recognize the balm is enough for your health to be recovered. Whatever is lost in your health shall be recovered! The Great Physicians Prescription IS THERE NO BALM IN GILEAD IS THERE NO PHYSICIAN THERE? Jeremiah 8:22 There is a balm in Gilead, and the Great Physician is Jesus. He has made a prescription. Now we have found it! We know the balm, as prescribed by the Physician Himself. We are thus free from sickness and disease. He has pointed out the balm to us, we are now walking under the influence of it. Now we live like Him, immune to sickness and disease, walking in perfect health. Eternal health! It is the cheapest drug! Yet theres no capsule, no drug, no injection that compares with it in terms of potency. It goes into the bones and marrows! It is quick! It is powerful! NOW LETS TAKE A LOOK AT THE BALM: The Anointiong Oil And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them POWER over unclean spirits.Mark 6:7 Friends, I present to you the Great Physicians prescription the Anointing Oil! From the scripture reference above, it is evident that Jesus placed something in the hands of His disciples, with which they were to: Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils... Matthew 10:8 Mark 6:13 reports: And they cast out many devils, and ANOINTED WITH OIL many that were sick, and healed them. Now, who sent them forth? Who gave them the oil? What was the oil for? Friends, the Great Physician sent forth His disciples, and He equipped them with the prescription for any kind of sickness, all manner of sickness whatsoever. That prescription was the anointing oil. Having proved the efficacy of this prescription, the apostles maintained the use of it all through their ministry. That was why James boldly recommended it to the Church in James 5:14: Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, ANOINTING him with OIL in the name of the Lord. Listen to me, this is the all-purpose drug. It is syrup, capsule and injection all put together! Throughout the scriptures, there is no other prescription for healing outside the oil the New Testament covenant balm! It will heal any sickness and destroy any disease. Jesus said to them in Matthew 10:8: ...Raise the dead...Yes, the anointing oil will raise the dead! We have countless testimonies of many dead raised by the anointing oil (See last chapter). No doctor has the drug to raise the dead. They only have that which they can use to cure the living. Jesus also said to the disciples:...Cast out devils... Friends, hospitals cant cast out devils! Microscopes cant detect them. But the Great Physicians prescription, the balm, the anointing oil, can!The anointing oil is the healing balm. In Mark 6:7, we are told: And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits; You know the twelve were made up of all kinds of people, including Thomas, who insisted on seeing Jesus pierced hands before believing that it was He indeed that is risen from the dead (John 20:25-29). So if Jesus had simply said, Behold I give unto you power ... Thomas would have asked, Where is the power? But Jesus indeed gave them power when He handed over to them the bottles of the anointing oil. He said to them, Behold, power! He gave them the oil as power over unclean spirits, and to heal all manner of sicknesses and all manner of diseases paralysis, barrenness, heart - failure, blood disease, cancer, blindness. All manner! I would like you to recognize that no one knows about life more than the One that made it. No one knows about a product more than the manufacturer. The One who made you knows about you more than anybody else. Therefore, no doctor should be allowed to confuse you with fake reports. The Great Physician says, I have the prescription against all unclean spirits. I have a mystery that can handle all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. Let God be true, and let every man, every doctors report, every lab result, be a liar! This day marks the end of every curse of the law in your life! The Great Physicians prescription is more than enough for you. There is no burden placed on your life, no yoke placed on your neck by the enemy, that can survive the operation of faith in the anointing oil. GOD PLACED IT IN MY HAND And the Lord said unto him, What is that in thine hand? And he said, A rod. Exodus 4:2 Every time God calls a man, He places an instrument in his hand. He called Moses, and put a rod in his hand, charging him to use it. That is the instrument of deliverance placed in your hands. Go and use it (Exodus 4:3). Friends, God placed the anointing oil in my hand. Its a first class mystery, handed down to us from heaven.We are not trying to do something that somebody else is doing. No! We have been given an instrument to work with. More than 80% of the testimonies in our ministry to date, are traceable to the anointing oil - healings of AIDS, diabetes, cancer, diseases and sicknesses of all kinds! Also healing of businesses, homes, etc.Children have been delivered from all forms of oppression of the devil. Many yet have broken through into the realm of excellence. Many have encountered unspeakable favours. All by the operations of the anointing oil, proving that, indeed, this is Gods instrument, delivered to this ministry, for the rescue of men! Is there no balm in Gilead? That balm is the anointing oil. It is the New Testament balm. Jesus said it will handle all manner of sickness and all manner of disease, everything that is against you. It will destroy them all! It will work to produce your comfort in all areas of life. Life has become easy for you from now on, in the name of Jesus. GOD INITIATED IT When God was going to make His presence known among His people (Israel), He instructed Moses to build an ark. He told him the exact kind of wood to use. Moses did as he was instructed and he got carpenters to build the ark to the exact specifications and with the exact materials recommended. And God mysteriously began to inhabit the ark! Every time they moved the ark to the war front and shouted aloud, the God in the ark would step out, and the enemies of Israel would be crushed! Once, the ark was abandoned in the house of a man called Obed-edom, and in the three months that it was kept there, the God in the ark blessed the house of Obed-edom! (2 Samuel 6:11). It was the carpenters product, but it became the habitation of Jehovah God! Im talking about the ark of the covenant. The same way, in Exodus 30:23-25, God instructed Moses: Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet calamus two hundred and fifty shekels, And of cassia five hundred shekels, after the shekel of the sanctuary, and of oil olive an hin: And thou shall make it an oil of hly ointment, an ointment compound after the art of the apothe- cary: it shall be an holy anointing oil And in verse 31, God added: And thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel, saying, This shall be an holy anointing oil unto me throughout your generations. So it doesnt matter what it is to your pastor, it doesnt matter what it is to your church, but unto God, it shall be an holy anointing oil a mystery in the hands of the children of Israel, including us, the spiritual Israel. And God said it is to be throughout your generations, that is, it will never end till this world is over. Its mystery will not stop until this world is over. It is a forever mystery. By the grace of God, the Lord has delivered this mystery into my hand. The Holy Ghost helped me to appreciate it, and multitudes have been blessed by it all over the world today. We have seen and heard God wrought terrific and amazing miracles, signs and wonders in every place where this mystery balm has been used! Many think its a church ritual, and yet many think its a church doctrine. But Im going to show you what that bottle carries. And as you begin to catch the understanding of it, every reproach of disease in your life will be consumed. Every curse of affliction in your body, in your Family, in your career or business, will be consumed, in Jesus name. God says the oil, in your hand, should be a holy anointing oil unto all. So, it is time to find out what it contains. The Spirit In The Oil Inside the oil resides the personality of the Holy Ghost, the third Person of the Godhead. Just like the ark of old, built by carpenters, and made of Shittim wood, so God in His infinite wisdom built an ark of liquid, inside which mysteriously resides the Spirit of the Lord God Himself the Holy Spirit. Holy Ghost and Fire is His middle name (Matthew 3:11), The Comforter is His surname (John 14:26). He is the One that equips the Church. He is our banner of victory, He is the master key to all exploits in the Kingdom. Not even the Messiah could go forth without Him! The Holy Ghost has the command of the hour! He is the One in charge now. In Genesis chapter 1, we read that the Father created the world and went back to heaven. The world later got messed up! Then the Son came to repair it. Having done that, the Holy Ghost took over, saying, I will take it through. So, He came to manage the world. He is the Manager of Gods creation today. In 1 Samuel 16:13, the Bible tells us: Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward. So Samuel rose up, and went to Ramah. David was anointed with oil, and the One inside the oil stepped out of the oil and sat upon him! So David became unmolestable and indestructible. He became the noblest man in Israel. He was anointed with oil, and the One living in the oil, the Spirit of the Lord, came out of the oil and rested on Him. Today, He will come out for you too!. Remember when they were to take the ark of God on a new cart, to the city of David? The asses stumbled, and Uzzah put forth his hand to steady the ark and the mysterious One inside the ark struck him dead! (2 Samuel 6:6-7). Friends, theres Somebody in the oil, the present day liquid ark. His name is called the Spirit of the Lord. Every time you receive the oil with an open heart, He comes out for you. In Isaiah 59:19, the Bible says: So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. When Samuel anointed David with oil, the Spirit of the Lord came down on him. This is the standard against every spirit that threatens your wellbeing, and every oppression of the devil. This is the fire that silences him and his cohorts. David was anointed with oil, but the Bible didnt say that oil came upon him. It was the Spirit of the Lord that came upon him. Friends, what the anointing oil contains is not scientific. It is a mystery - the mystery of the indwelling presence of the Spirit of the Lord. There is no sickness on this earth that can defy the authority of the Spirit of God. James 5:14 says that when the one who is sick is prayed for and anointed with oil in the name of the Lord, ...the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall RAISE HIM UP; and if he hath committed sins, they shall be forgiven him. verse 15 No matter the nature of the sickness, the Spirit of the Lord in the oil shall raise him up. For the Bible says in Romans 8:11: But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. There is quickening power in the oil. It will quicken your ears from deafness and your eyes from blindness. No matter how close to death you are, there is enough power in the oil to quicken your mortal body. Once, a man was brought to my office from Benin Republic. I couldnt look at him, because he was no better than a skeleton! He had a cup with which he was collecting the pus that was oozing out of his chest! He was as good as dead! I couldnt ask for the name of the sickness, as his case was so pathetic. All I could do was pray for him, anoint him with oil, and I gave him some of the oil to drink, leaving him to God. Imagine my amazement when not very long after, I saw him on the platform, testifying to his healing! (Full testimony is contained in the Healing balm domionlinestore.org/content/healing-balm) Theres quickening power in the oil! Jesus believed in it. And after He left, His disciples also believed in it. That is why in James, the oil was recommended as a healing balm for any sick person in the Church. There is no sickness or disease that can resist the authority of the Great Physicians prescription. A man had suffered from a protracted heart disease for eleven years. He attended one of our anointing services, at which in obedience to the instructions given, he placed a little of the oil on his forehead and made some proclamations as directed. And that was the end of that plague! Another woman had an operation in the United States, at which, unknown to her, a piece of cottonwool was forgotten in her tummy, and for six years she suffered excruciating pains and torture! She was under one of such tortures when she reached out for the anointing oil and drank some. As the pains increased, she felt something drop from between her legs. She took the bloody lump to the hospital, where it was identified as cotton wool! From that day on, she has lived a healthy life. Theres this testimony from our church in Kaduna: A man (a member of the church) mistakenly left his bottle of anointing oil (probably one of those giant bottles) on his table. And his daughter picked it up and used some of it to cook pottage, what I call the Mystery Yam Pottage. At the time, his Family had been suffering from three terrible plagues. One of his sons, who was 15 years old had never walked! He had to make use of crutches and braces. His daughter had a lump in her breast, which could not be diagnosed, and his wife for eight years could not plait her hair, talk less of perming it. She suffered from an excruciating pain in the head that didnt seem to have a name, the pain was even worse than migraine.That mysterious afternoon, they ate this food (prepared with the anointing oil) and all went to bed, to rest. The first miracle that occured was that this mans son woke up and told his father, I am going to play football! The once crippled boy was now standing strong on his two feet, after 15 years of lameness! Secondly the lump in his daughters breast began to bring out pus. And that ended that mysterious affliction! That same day too, his wife felt a strange relief in her head, and later confidently went out to make her hair! That was a three-in-one mysterious work of the Great Physicians prescription - the anointing oil! Friends, theres someone in the oil! FROM CHEMISTRY TO MYSTERY Know, however, that the oil ceases to be chemistry, and turns to mystery only when it is in the hand of the prophet. Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brethren: and the Spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward... I Samuel 16:13 After the bottle of olive oil has left the factory, and touches the hand of the prophet and the prophet names it, it ceases to be a chemical product, it becomes mystery! That is why you may even be working in the factory where the oil is produced and still be dying of sickness! There is a process that turns it to a holy anointing oil, carrying the Spirit of the Lord. You buy the bottle of oil from the shop and bring it to the prophet for naming. As the prophet of God makes prophetic declarations over the oil, it ceases to be chemistry, it becomes mystery, and that mystery carries the personality of the Holy Ghost. Its not just grabbing a bottle from a shelf that makes it the anointing oil. No! It is the prophetic touch on it that releases the mystery that it carries. Samuel (the prophet of God, sent of God) took the oil, anointed David, and the Spirit of the Lord came upon him from that day forward. That is the POWER in the bottle, that handles all manner of sicknesses and all manner of diseases. It is its mystery that delivers the captives. I see you delivered now! Jesus said in Luke 4:18: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, The anointing targets the broken-hearted for healing. It targets the captives for deliverance. It targets the blind for the opening of their eyes. It targets the bruised for liberty.The Spirit of the Lord is the content of the oil in the bottle. How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him. Acts 10:38 That anointing handles all manner of oppressions. THE FIRE IN THE OIL I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. Matthew 3:11-12 This is another mystery in the bottle of anointing oil. It carries two powerful instruments a fan and fire.The Holy Ghost carries a fan in His hand. This fan has a sweeping effect. You remember the rushing mighty wind on the day of Pentecost? (Acts 2:2). He carries a fan with which He sweeps clean the floor of your body, the floor of your life, the floor of your home, your business, etc. He gathers the substance together and preserves them, but the chaff He puts together and burns off with unquenchable fire! Friends, this seemingly innocent liquid is fire as well! And more mysteriously, fire and fan! The fan sweeps and also enhances the burning of the fire. The same way harmattan fire spreads because of the wind, so the fan spreads the fire in the oil to every part of your body from your head to your toes enabling it to do a thorough work. The devil cant stop its burning effect. Today, I see every chaff in your body gathered together and burnt with an unquenchable fire! It doesnt matter what they say is wrong in your body.The Holy Ghost fire is our beautifier. He is the devourer of our enemy. He is our refining fire. The Holy Ghost is the judge of Satan, He is the humiliator of the wicked (John 16:11). When the fire enters your body, it destroys every chaff in your body, it consumes every stone blocking your health, it licks up every spell of Satan, it licks up every evil water in your life! Then the fire of the Lord fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 1 Kings 18:38 It is Gods fire. The fire in the oil is liquid fire, strange in dimension! John said:...He shall baptize you with Holy Ghost and with fire. Matthew 3:11 The Holy Ghost (the Spirit in the oil) will heal the sick, and open the eyes of the blind. The fire in the oil will afflict the wicked, and devour the wicked, but refine the saints. The wicked cannot survive its devouring power. Malachi 3:2-3 says: But who may abide the day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a refiners fire, and like fullers soap: And he shall sit as a refiner and purifier of sliver: and he shall purify the sons of Levi, and purge them as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness. Today, every mark of the wicked on you will be visited by the vengeance of the Spirit of the Lord. Nothing stops that fire! (1 Kings 18:38). Now, whatever represents an obstacle, a barrier, a blemish in your health, shall be consumed! For our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:29 The Holy Ghost is Gods consuming fire. When He enters your body (via the liquid fire), it consumes cancer, deafness, blindness, paralysis, lameness, dumbness, hypertension, fibroid, etc. When that fire falls, everything in its way is consumed. It is the consuming fire! Friends, hear this again. Inside this innocent bottle of oil is the Holy Ghost and fire, for the refining of the saints. Whatever makes you look ugly, this fire is able to burn it off now! This is the Great Physicians ultimate remedy for all sicknesses and diseases. Dont mind the long, intimidating name the doctors gave your sickness! Sickness is sickness. It is the spirit of the devil. It is an evil spirit of torment.But the fire in the oil will burn off any spirit of infirmity. It will burn off any spirit of sickness. It will burn off whatever is holding you down. This is your hour of liberty! There it is, friends. I have presented to you the Great Physician. His name is Jesus. And I have presented to you, the Great Physicians prescription the Balm in Gilead, the healing balm the Anointing Oil. With these two in place, you are bound to live an uninterrupted, all-round healthy life.
