Get Your Daily Dose of the Word

On October 1, 1979, Rev. Kenneth E. Hagin began Prayer and Healing School on the RHEMA campus in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Twenty-three years later, Prayer and Healing School is still conducted Monday through Friday on the RHEMA campus. Rev. Hagin's new hardbound book, Health Food, is a compilation of his teachings on healing during his first year of Prayer and Healing School.

My sonl attend to my words: incline thine ear unto my sayings.

Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart.

Keep the Word Before Your Eyes

Back in September 1957, I knew and 82-year-old evangelist who had been bedfast for two years with cancer in her stomach. Doctors couldn't understand how she had lived even that long. When they opened her body up and saw several malignant growths, they just sewed her back up. They said nothing more could be done.

I felt led to read her Proverbs 4:20 thorugh 22. I said to her, "When I was on the bed of sickness, I got hold of these verses and saw one place where I had missed it."

I continued, "Proverbs 4:21 says not to let the Word depart from before your eyes. And this was a turning point for me. You see, I had seen myself dead. And when I got hold of this scripture and put the Word of God before my eyes, I began to see myself alive. I began to see myself doing things I'd never done before."

So I shared with that dear woman, "Every time you look at that stomach that's so huge, see it down flat. See yourself preaching again. God doesn't want you to die like this. You can die if you want to. But let God heal you first and then die. Don't die like this. He won't get any glory out of that."

Confession:

I keep the Word of God before my eyes. God's Word is true. His Word is life unto my spirit.

For they [God's Words] are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

See Yourself Well

In May 1958, I was at a meeting in Fort Worth, Texas, and was straightening up my book table when I saw two women coming. I didn't recognize either of them, so I kept on with my work. About that time, a woman threw her arms around me and hugged me.

I pushed away from her, surprised, and she said to me, "You don't recognize me, do you?"

I didn't recognize her. When she told me who she was, I threw my arms around her, and just had a "hallelujah" spell right there! She was the 82-year-old evangelist I had ministered to several months earlier! She who had been bedfast and given up to die now looked so young and pretty!

She said. "I'm sure glad you didn't let me die! It would have been the easiest thing in the world for me just to die and go on to Heaven. But I started thinking after you left. And every time I look at that huge stomach, I saw it flat. I saw myself winning souls and preaching again. I saw myself well. Within two or three month's time, I saw my stomach go down. And in the process of time, my stomach flattened out and all the symptoms left me."

Confession:

I see myself well. I see myself ________. (Fill in the blank with whatever you see yourself doing.)
