Question

What must a person commit to before hands are laid on them for healing?

Answer

This is a sacred order of the Church, that, “These signs shall follow them that believe; if they lay their hands on the sick, they shall recover.” Now, that wasn’t me that said that; that was Jesus Christ Who said that. Now, the first thing you must do, is surrender yourself entirely to Christ, and surrender your mind to His Word. “Lord, I won’t act upon my own feelings, upon my own thoughts. I will only act upon Your Word. I’ll have no control of my own thoughts concerning it. I will act upon Your Word.” Now, get that straight. Now, you’re not to go down and say, “Well, I’ve lost my healing.” If you do, brother, it’ll be worse than ever if you make this committal. You’re to stand right now. Remember, just like coming into the church; you are supposed to make this committal, and say, “Lord God of heaven, I’ll stand by Your Word, so help me, till the last drop of blood’s left my body or breath.” See? You believe when your baby passes through the line, it’s going to be healed, sister? You do that? Frankly, it’s already healed, but I want you to pass through the line anyhow. It’s healed a while ago. All right. But just, I want you to come through so you follow the regular… Now, all of you that wants to make this committal, put your hand on your heart, like this. Those who are standing here, those who cannot, lay your hands on there. Now, raise up your hand. Now, you now commit yourself to God, that from this time hence, you believe that you’re healed by the power of Almighty God. You’ll do that?
