Perfect Faith for Healing
COLOSSIANS 1:26-27
26 Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:
27 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
MALACHI 4:1-2
1 ¶ For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble (two things – pride and wickedness – a repetition of the days of Noah): and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts (In Noah’s day the world was destroyed by water, but in this day it will be destroyed by fire), that it shall leave them neither root nor branch (root is a person’s ancestry, branch is their offspring – so both their ancestry and their offspring will be wiped out just as it also was in Noah’s day. In Noah’s day, the only ones who ancestry remained and who continued on to have children were those who followed the message of that hour which God proclaimed through His end time prophet Noah – a one man ministry that brought judgement upon an entire world).
2 But unto you that fear my name (have respect to his name in this age, especially in connection with water baptism, and not just the titles of Father Son and Holy Ghost which is no name at all - his name is the Lord Jesus Christ) shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings (Notice – not healing in his feet, or in his legs, or healing in his shoulders or arms or hands, but wings, this is a bird, an eagle, this is not Lion, Ox, or Man age, but this is eagle age, because we know this prophet of Malachi 4 was a prophet with the eagle anointing for this age, and eagle anointing is connected to revelation); and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. (We have to begin with milk as does a little calf in the stall, but we are to grow up in this age into maturity, we are not to always remain drinking at the milk stage of the word, but we are to go on into a mature revelation under the eagle anointing of this age. We might begin as a calf like under an ox age anointing, but we must go on to become eagles)

MALACHI 4:3-6
3 And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.
4 ¶ Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. (If they kept the law and statutes, God would bless them and prospers them and heal them – that was promised under the law, but now we are under grace and the spirit of revelation)
5 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD (Notice – Elijah the prophet, not Elijah’s and prophets – a this is a one man scriptural fulfilment – and that man we know was William Branham, just like you need to see that you are the “behold I will send YOU” Elijah the prophet):
6 And he (his message) shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
Your heart is where you believe from. Believing from your mind is hope, and that is good, but believing from your heart is faith. Your mind has the ability to reason, but your heart doesn’t have the ability to reason, it only has the ability to believe or doubt the word. So a perfect faith for healing is not produced from the mind, it is produced from the heart.
We know that Healing is not just for the body. Some of us need healing in our spirits, because sometimes our mind gets sick with bitterness or complexes.
Then some of us need healing of the soul for salvation, so we need to put Christ in our hearts for the healing of our soul.
***So the secret to the healing of the soul is Christ in the midst of the soul, so the healing of our minds must also be Christ in the midst of our mind and our thoughts, and Christ is the word.
PHILIPPIANS 4:8-9
8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
9 Those things, which ye have both learned, and received, and heard, and seen in me, do: and the God of peace shall be with you.
***So healing comes when we put Christ in the midst of the person, or the situation, or the decision that we need to make about something, or whatever the need is.
EXODUS 15:22-26
22 ¶ So Moses brought Israel from the Red sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.
23 And when they came to Marah, they could not drink of the waters of Marah, for they were bitter: therefore the name of it was called Marah.
24 And the people murmured against Moses, saying, What shall we drink?
25 And he cried unto the LORD; and the LORD shewed him a tree, which when he had cast into the waters, the waters were made sweet: there he made for them a statute and an ordinance, and there he proved them, (Notice - a cut down tree cast into the bitter waters, healed the waters and brought life to a thirsty people, and we know that the tree represented Christ, because Christ was the tree that was cut down, so when God saw the tree in the midst of the waters, then the waters were healed, and so the same thing must apply when God sees Christ in the midst of our heart, then our bitter and sick soul is healed.
So God cannot respond different to how he acted the first time.)
26 And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the LORD thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the LORD that healeth thee.
**He was showing that if a cut down tree brought healing to the waters, then hearkening to the voice of the Lord will also have the same effect and heal you.
This was their promise under that Exodus prophet’s ministry, and we are also under an Exodus prophet’s ministry, and so the same promise also applies to us.
II KINGS 4:38-41
38 ¶ And Elisha came again to Gilgal: and there was a dearth in the land; and the sons of the prophets were sitting before him: and he said unto his servant, Set on the great pot, and seethe pottage for the sons of the prophets.
39 And one went out into the field to gather herbs, and found a wild vine, and gathered thereof wild gourds his lap full, and came and shred them into the pot of pottage: for they knew them not.
40 So they poured out for the men to eat. And it came to pass, as they were eating of the pottage, that they cried out, and said, O thou man of God, there is death in the pot. And they could not eat thereof.
41 But he said, Then bring meal (Meal represents Christ – he is the bread of life). And he cast it into the pot; and he said, Pour out for the people, that they may eat. And there was no harm in the pot.
Again we see, when there is death in the pot (the vessel), then if we put Christ in midst of the vessel, then he brings life where there was once death.
II KINGS 4:1-7 Is the story of the widow woman had a financial problem – so in this story lays a secret to financial problems.
1 ¶ Now there cried a certain woman of the wives of the sons of the prophets unto Elisha, saying, Thy servant my husband is dead; and thou knowest that thy servant did fear the LORD: and the creditor is come to take unto him my two sons to be bondmen.
2 And Elisha said unto her, What shall I do for thee? tell me, what hast thou in the house? And she said, Thine handmaid hath not any thing in the house, save a pot of oil.
3 Then he said, Go, borrow thee vessels abroad of all thy neighbours, even empty vessels; borrow not a few. (She took what she had in her house and began to multiply it into a little oil selling business)
4 And when thou art come in, thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons, and shalt pour out into all those vessels, and thou shalt set aside that which is full. (Notice – she had to do some work with what she already had)
5 So she went from him, and shut the door upon her and upon her sons, who brought the vessels to her; and she poured out.
6 And it came to pass, when the vessels were full, that she said unto her son, Bring me yet a vessel. And he said unto her, There is not a vessel more. And the oil stayed.
7 Then she came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil (now she had to go and find customers to buy her product, and she had to sell her product), and pay thy debt, and live thou and thy children of the rest.
The bible has every answer to every problem. So we notice again that the answer was Oil in a vessel, and Oil is the Holy Spirit which is Christ, and Christ in the vessel is the word in the person.
*We can have Christ in us, but many times we fail to recognise him in us.
MARK 4:37-40
37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. (Death was imminent; death was in the boat just like death was in the pot, just like a cancer in a person is death in the pot, so they needed to put Christ in the boat, but he was already in the boat, but the problem was, that he was asleep in the boat)
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
Notice – Christ was there all the time with them in their ship, but it he needed to be wakened, and so that is the problem why many perish, it is not that we don’t have the word in us, but that word within us needs to be awakened by faith in the promise.
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
II KINGS 4:17-26
17 And the woman conceived, and bare a son at that season that Elisha had said unto her, according to the time of life.
18 ¶ And when the child was grown, it fell on a day, that he went out to his father to the reapers.
19 And he said unto his father, My head, my head. And he said to a lad, Carry him to his mother.
20 And when he had taken him, and brought him to his mother, he sat on her knees till noon, and then died.
21 And she went up, and laid him on the bed of the man of God, and shut the door upon him, and went out.
22 And she called unto her husband, and said, Send me, I pray thee, one of the young men, and one of the asses, that I may run to the man of God, and come again.
23 And he said, Wherefore wilt thou go to him to day? it is neither new moon, nor sabbath. And she said, It shall be well.
24 Then she saddled an ass, and said to her servant, Drive, and go forward; slack not thy riding for me, except I bid thee.
25 So she went and came unto the man of God to mount Carmel. And it came to pass, when the man of God saw her afar off, that he said to Gehazi his servant, Behold, yonder is that Shunammite:
26 Run now, I pray thee, to meet her, and say unto her, Is it well with thee? is it well with thy husband? is it well with the child? And she answered, It is well.
She knew that the answer laid in the word of the Prophet, because the word of the Prophet was the word of God, and the word of God is Christ, and when you have Christ in the vessel you can smile at the storm.
JONAH 2:7-9
7 When my soul fainted within me I remembered the LORD: and my prayer came in unto thee, into thine holy temple.
8 They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.
9 But I will sacrifice unto thee with the voice of thanksgiving; I will pay that that I have vowed. Salvation is of the LORD.
One of the problems of why some people struggle to see healing manifested in their bodies is because of our educated minds – we are trying to believe with an educated mind instead of by a revelation in the heart.
PERFECT.FAITH_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-11 SUNDAY_ 63-0825E
26 Now, we want to speak now upon faith, and a different type of faith: Perfect Faith. That's a great thing. Now, faith, we're told in the Bible, "Faith cometh by hearing." Now, you cannot be saved without faith. And faith is something that you have to believe it's there, that really nothing else will declare it's there but faith. Now I'm trying to bring faith to you, so that you can be ready for this prayer line, in the next few minutes.
27 Now, faith: "He that cometh to God must believe that He is." And it's impossible to--to please God without faith, you cannot please Him. And if you say you believe God... you have never seen Him, see, so then you've got to believe It by faith. And if you could see Him, it would be no more faith. See? Anything that the senses declares, is no more faith, it's a scientific fact; see, it's not no more faith. But you have to accept Him by faith. "And he that cometh to God must believe God; and faith comes by hearing the Word of God. (In other words, the word comes into you by hearing it, and when you put Christ in the midst of the problem, then he is the problem solver)
PERFECT.FAITH_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-11 SUNDAY_ 63-0825E
39 I--I want you to get this now. We... the Church has got to lift Itself in the power of God. How? We are too close to the end, now; and I believe the Church is in condition where we can teach It a little deeper things, and rub some of this make-believe out, see, and get into something real. See? It's got to be something that you know!
CHURCH.ORDER_ JEFF.IN COD THURSDAY_ 63-1226
32 Therefore let the Branham Tabernacle be operated like this, and in the day, especially this day when we've had so much, (I don't want to say this, but) so much make-belief. We don't want make-belief. No man, no honest person wants to have a make-belief. We... If we can't have the real, let's not have any at all, let's wait till we do get the real. Now, I believe you--you men would agree with that. We don't want nothing make-belief. Brethren, we can't start on make-belief something and leaving this world. We got to have what's real, and what's genuine. If we haven't got it, let's wait till we do get it, and then say something about it. See?
44-2 PATMOS.VISION - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.2
Let me just use another illustration. Suppose you need healing. What does the Word say? Well, we have all read it countless times, but did not get in the Spirit when reading it. Did we ask God for His Spirit to teach us the real truth of it? If we did, we would call the elders, confess our sins, be anointed and prayed for, and that would be that. It might not come immediately, but in His Spirit, it is all over. There is no other court of appeal. God will fulfill His Word. Oh, we need to get in the Spirit, and then things will be done. DON'T GO THROUGH THE ACTS FIRST. GET IN THE SPIRIT AND THEN GO THROUGH THE ACTS AND WATCH WHAT GOD WILL DO.
Getting in the spirit is what awakens the word that is already within you if you are a believer – and that is when the miracles and healings begin to happen.
I KINGS 17:10-16
10 So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to the gate of the city, behold, the widow woman was there gathering of sticks: and he called to her, and said, Fetch me, I pray thee, a little water in a vessel, that I may drink.
11 And as she was going to fetch it, he called to her, and said, Bring me, I pray thee, a morsel of bread in thine hand.
12 And she said, As the LORD thy God liveth, I have not a cake, but an handful of meal in a barrel, and a little oil in a cruse: and, behold, I am gathering two sticks, that I may go in and dress it for me and my son, that we may eat it, and die.
13 And Elijah said unto her, Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son.
14 For thus saith the LORD God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the LORD sendeth rain upon the earth.
15 And she went and did according to the saying of Elijah: and she, and he, and her house, did eat many days.
16 And the barrel of meal wasted not, neither did the cruse of oil fail, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Elijah.
175-5 PERGAMEAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.5
… But God never placed signs ahead of the Word. Signs follow the Word, as when Elijah told the woman to bake a cake for him first, according to the Word of the Lord. When she did as the Word said, the proper sign came. Come to the Word first and then watch the miracle. The seed Word is energized by the Spirit.
The word is Christ – so we must first put Christ in the heart by faith and obedience to the word, and if we will just go and awake Jesus, then we will see the supernatural take place.
I KINGS 17:17-24
17 ¶ And it came to pass after these things, that the son of the woman, the mistress of the house, fell sick; and his sickness was so sore, that there was no breath left in him.
18 And she said unto Elijah, What have I to do with thee, O thou man of God? art thou come unto me to call my sin to remembrance, and to slay my son?
19 And he said unto her, Give me thy son. And he took him out of her bosom, and carried him up into a loft, where he abode, and laid him upon his own bed.
20 And he cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, hast thou also brought evil upon the widow with whom I sojourn, by slaying her son?
21 And he stretched himself upon the child three times, and cried unto the LORD, and said, O LORD my God, I pray thee, let this child's soul come into him again.
22 And the LORD heard the voice of Elijah; and the soul of the child came into him again, and he revived.
23 And Elijah took the child, and brought him down out of the chamber into the house, and delivered him unto his mother: and Elijah said, See, thy son liveth.
24 And the woman said to Elijah, Now by this I know that thou art a man of God, and that the word of the LORD in thy mouth is truth.
Healing in his wings – it was the word of the Lord that came out of the mouth of the prophet that brought life where death was, it brought healing where sickness was, it brought wealth where poverty was.
II KINGS 13:20-21
20 ¶ And Elisha died, and they buried him. And the bands of the Moabites invaded the land at the coming in of the year.
21 And it came to pass, as they were burying a man, that, behold, they spied a band of men; and they cast the man into the sepulchre of Elisha: and when the man was let down, and touched the bones of Elisha, he revived, and stood up on his feet.
Elisha represented the word for that day, even though Elisha was dead; the anointing was still on him to bring a dead man back life again.
**It cannot be any different to the message for this hour, because this message is Christ, just come in contact with this word and put it on the inside of you, it will have to have the same effect on you as it has always done, and then you will also experience a resurrection in this hour.
Christ in the pot brought healing to the pot, Christ in the vessel brought financial healing to the widow woman, Christ in the storm brought peace to the storm. Christ in the water brings sweetness to the water. Christ is the answer to all my needs.
Christ in you the hope of Glory.
