Creflo Dollar: Be Healed

by: Creflo Dollar

We all know someone who was sick or injured at one time, and usually the person recovered under a doctor’s care. Sometimes, though, their health continued to deteriorate, and no one could do anything to save them. Situations like this are frustrating at best and heart-breaking at worst, and it’s a helpless feeling having to stand by and watch loved ones suffer. But when we study our Bible, we see that healing is actually God’s will for those who believe the promises He makes to us.

All throughout the Bible, we see examples of God’s healing power. Depending solely on doctors to keep us healthy can be hit or miss, and it’s always expensive. But one day when a woman who was in a predicament sought out Jesus when He was preaching to the people, she was instantly healed. “And a woman was there who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years. She had suffered a great deal under the care of many doctors and had spent all she had, yet instead of getting better she grew worse. When she heard about Jesus, she came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, because she thought, ‘If I just touch his clothes, I will be healed.’ Immediately her bleeding stopped and she felt in her body that she was freed from her suffering. He said to her, ‘Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace and be freed from your suffering’” (Mark 5:25-29, 34, NIV). Jesus has been called the Great Physician, the Author of life, and the Prince of Peace, for good reason.

When God heals us, we get peace along with healing. Now, being a doctor is a noble profession, but none of them can give us the peace that comes from Jesus Christ! Jesus had compassion on the people He met, and He e cast out evil spirits and healed paralytics, deaf, mute, and blind people, and even resurrected the dead on several occasions. Imagine how their families and friends felt while witnessing this firsthand.

Don’t get me wrong—I’m not putting down doctors, but despite all the education and book learning they soak up, there are some things that even they can’t do. Wise doctors admit as much. When they’ve done all they can, faithful prayer causes miracles. “And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him” (James 5:15).

There’s a link between healing and forgiveness of sins, and there was a reason Jesus was whipped and beaten before His crucifixion. “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed” (Isaiah 53:5, NKJV). God heals us not just physically, but mentally, emotionally, and spiritually as well. There’s a definite connection between the mind and the body. When we know we’re forgiven, spiritual healing of the soul begins on the inside and moves outward.

The story of Jesus and the leper shows that healing and cleansing are also linked. “And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him” (Luke 5:12, 13). Spiritual cleansing is just as much God’s will as physical healing. It’s ours by faith!

Creflo Dollar: Do All Religions Lead to God?

Creflo Dollar gave great insight to what different major religions believe. Very interesting.

Christianity, Scientology, Buddhism, Hinduism, Calvinism, Mormonism, Islam, what's the difference? With great sensitivity, I embark on answering the age—old question many have pondered for centuries—Do all religions lead to God? As a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, most of the world already knows my stance on this subject. Yet in this article my aim is not to bombard you with my personal thoughts, but rather give you information to consider if you or someone you know is struggling for a conclusion on this matter.

Rick Warren, a pastor and best—selling Christian author, offers an interesting interpretation to this highly debated inquiry. In response to the question, Do all religions lead to God, Warren answers:"Can I go into a phone booth and dial any phone number and get home? No, there's only one number that'll get me home. I could be sincere, but I could be sincerely wrong. The truth is, all roads don't lead to Rome and all roads and all religions don't lead to God".

What a powerful statement! For those of you who need a reason to believe the Word, this statement will most certainly give you one. Although somewhat simplistic, Warren's statement accurately supports the factuality of there being a solitary way to connect with God.

So how does one decide what's the way to God? Should he or she research what religion has the best philosophies, or compare each religion to see which one makes the most sense? While some of my more theologically—inclined colleagues might applaud you for such efforts, I believe such research will subject you to the reasonings of men, and ultimately lead you away from the truth.

Creflo Dollar: Quality of Life

by: Pastor Creflo Dollar

Creflo Dollar posted these notes from his sermon, Quality of Life. Hopefully they will help you get a more in-depth understanding of his message.

Summary:

God cares about our happiness, and He really wants us to enjoy life. We should not only be focused on quantity but also quality in life.

A. Jesus died so we could have life and have it more abundantly (John 10:10, AMP).

1. The abundant life describes the abundance of quality in all areas of life.
   
   • We can choose to be happy; the Apostle Paul thought himself happy (Acts 26:2).
   • We are happy when we discover what to do in seemingly impossible situations. That is the benefit of wisdom (Proverbs 3:13).
   • The word blessed is defined in The Amplified Bible as “happy, spiritually prosperous, joyous, and enviable.”
   • Blessed are the pure in heart; they will see God (Matthew 5:8, AMP).
2. In the Old Testament, happiness is the state of being relieved.
3. In the New Testament, happiness is the state of the Believer who has fullness in God. It is to be well off, supremely blessed, and fully satisfied.
   
   • Our Heavenly Father wants us to be fully satisfied and joyous despite our circumstances.

Creflo Dollar: Spiritual Farming

Author: Creflo Dollar

I don’t know if you are familiar with farming, but the same principles farmers use to yield a bountiful harvest of vegetables or fruit are the same ones that Believers are supposed to use to experience the harvest of God’s blessings in their lives. Any farmer must first put seed in the ground before he can harvest his crop. Then, there is a waiting period in which he must be patient. During that time, he must watch over his crop to make sure it is properly watered and cared for, making sure that his field or garden is protected from animals or pests that may try to eat his goods! God’s system of operation is identical to natural farming in that it also operates by seed time and harvest. Christians are the spiritual “farmers” who must diligently plant seeds and exert effort to harvest their blessings.

In Mark 4:26–27 Jesus compares the Kingdom of God to seed–sowing: “And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground; And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.” Please understand, farming isn’t for the lazy person; it takes work! But even when you can’t see anything happening, have faith that your seed is growing and will produce a harvest in due season.

The first thing you must do in God’s spiritual farming system is plant the incorruptible seed of His Word in your heart. You do this by finding scriptures that pertain to your needs or desires and meditating on them constantly. By speaking them aloud over and over again, you release your faith until it becomes real to you. It won’t be long before you can see yourself walking in the blessing. Don’t get me wrong, just like any natural farmer, there will be times when you won’t feel like planting any seed. But keep speaking the Word until you are established in the promise. The more seed you have in the ground of your heart, the bigger your harvest will be.

It is also important that you protect your harvest from the “pests” of doubt, fear and unbelief. Satan will try to steal your harvest by sending contradictory circumstances and situations your way. He does this to try and keep you from standing firm on your faith, but don’t be swayed by his attempts. These are the times when you will need to dig your heels in and keep speaking the Word and praising God for your harvest.

Your words connect you to the blessings of God, so whatever you do, don’t speak negative words. Doing so could cost you your harvest. Never allow doubt and fear to enter your heart. This may mean separating yourself from people who don’t speak faith around you. Only listen to words that support what you are believing God for.

Be sure to keep your faith boosted by constantly feeding your spirit the Word. Not only does this contribute to your “planting,” but it also helps keep you in a position to continue believing God. Romans 10:17 says that faith comes by hearing the Word of God. In addition to speaking the Word yourself, listen to tapes and other resources to keep your faith bolstered. The more faith you release out of your mouth, the more faith you will need to put back into your spirit, so don’t slack off on your intake of the Word.

Don’t forget to protect your seed until you see the manifestation of the harvest. Do this by praising and thanking God while you wait. Even when you don’t see anything, don’t worry! Your seed is taking root and growing. Thank God for His promises coming to pass in your life before you see them. This creates an atmosphere of victory that will scare the devil and his buzzards off! He can’t stand it when you praise God.

You will instinctively know when your harvest time has come. It may take six months, or even six years. Regardless of the time frame, don’t get weary and remember that God is faithful to perform what He promised in His Word. Anything of value is worth waiting for and putting forth the effort to see become a reality. Don’t give up during your season of waiting; continue to operate the spiritual farming principles that God has set up for you in His kingdom. It won’t be long before your seed grows up into a mighty harvest that will bless you and all those who cross your path!

Creflo Dollar: God Cares About Your Dreams

by: Creflo Dollar

Do you ever wonder if God cares about the dreams you have in life? Amongst all the people that He has created, and the countless issues and challenges others face, at times you may feel that your dreams go unnoticed or that God has so much on His plate that you aren’t a top priority. But this is simply not true. God, in His loving omnipotence, cares for every one of His children. He is aware of your dreams and desires and is well able to bring them to pass.

Yes, God cares. He has great love for you because He is love. In fact, His love for you surpasses anything that you can imagine for yourself. Do not doubt that His care for you extends to His being concerned about the many aspirations that you have.

During your talks with God, express your desires to Him. It delights your Heavenly Father when you draw closer to Him through prayer and fellowship. Faith and trust are the foundation of seeing God’s goodness manifest. When you share your heart with Him, it shows that you trust Him.

Don’t worry about the presentation or the form of conversation that you have with God when you pray. Even if you can’t find the right words to express your feelings and the yearning you have to see your hopes and dreams come to pass, talk to Him openly and honestly. He is aware of every thought that passes through your mind, from your daydreams to the thoughts of frustration that come from wanting things to happen quickly.

Open your life up to God’s guidance so that you can receive His goodness. When you purpose in your heart to live a life that pleases Him, He is sure to reward you according to His will for your life. You must understand that you are not living life alone. God has a great plan for your life that is beyond what you would choose or dream for yourself. His plan also involves people you haven’t even encountered yet. He will bless you so you can be a blessing to others as well.

Don’t get discouraged and give up on your dreams; trust God. The Bible promises that those who believe and have faith in Him will experience prosperity in every area of life. And don’t for a minute believe that He doesn’t take into consideration the time, effort and passion you put into making your desires a reality. Second Corinthians 5:7 says, “For we walk by faith, not by sight….” Even if you do not see immediate results from your hard work, keep your focus on God and His Word.

Just like Joseph was years, months, days, hours, then minutes away from seeing victory in his life, the same is true for you. If he had quit or allowed obstacles to hinder him from moving forward, he would have never seen his breakthrough! By practicing patience and persistence in your meditation on the Word, you will see the intricate details of your life unfold.

Though you will experience challenges and obstacles as you go through life, I encourage you to persevere and receive what God has for you. Take your heart’s desires before Him and seek Him diligently. He will bring to pass His perfect will for your life.
