I have nothing against doctors. I have a doctor. But somewhere in the history of the church, we became conformed to doctors and medicine the way we should be conformed to God and His Word. If doctors and medicine cannot do it, God can. And you should be taking God with you to your doctor’s appointment — so that when your doctor crosses a line, God can step in. Because we have Dr. God, Dr. Jesus, and Dr. Holy Spirit. And they back each other up. They are working right now. Many of you are going to be healed today — if you just get your mind off what you are dealing with long enough to let the Word do its work.
I want to tell you about a man. He was sick and the doctors had told him there was no hope. He started consulting God about what he was going through. The doctor had him on a lot of medicine — and he stopped taking it for months. He went for a checkup and his doctor said, “You’re doing real good.” His doctor thought the medicine was doing it. He had been off it for over a year. God fixed every leak in his body.
Let me tell you something about the word mercies in Romans 12:1. He did not say present your body by the mercy of God — singular. He said by the mercies of God — plural. That is layers of mercy. That is mercy for your kidneys. Mercy for your heart. Mercy for your blood pressure. Mercy for your joints. Mercy for your mind. There is a specific mercy for every specific thing your body needs. Lord have mercy. Not said in defeat — said as a declaration. Lord, have mercy on my body. Lord, have mercy on my mind. That is you pulling on the layers of mercy that God has already made available to you through the finished work of the cross.
You are not going to live 120 years in a bed. That is not what we are talking about. We are talking about still walking. Still talking. Still sitting down and getting back up. Still eating. Still serving. We are talking about El Shaddai — God Almighty. We are talking about Jehovah Jireh — the God who provides. This is supernatural. This is the spirit. And as an apostle of Jesus Christ, I had to bring this to you.
Are we going to keep dragging and being sick and not knowing we can live to be 120 healthy and well? What do you have to lose? You say it whether you are feeling bad or not. “I am going to live to be 120 years.” Say it scared. Say it doubtful. Say it anyway. Because doubt cannot whip truth — and the truth is, God said it.
