delights in showing the world through us that "the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men." As 1 Corinthians 1 says: "For…not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence" (verses 26-29, New King James Version). ink about the condition Kenneth E. Hagin was in, for example, when God called him. He was a 16-year-old boy lying paralyzed on his deathbed, suffering from a deformed heart and a medically incurable blood disease. He was so weak, and his condition was so hopeless, everyone around him had given up on him. e doctors, his family, even the ministers who came to visit him, all told him he had no choice but to die. But then he read in Mark 11 that Jesus said, "Have faith in God. For…whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith" (verses 22-23). ere on his deathbed, young Hagin believed those verses and acted on them, and his faith opened the prison doors of disease and paralysis. He got up off that bed healed, and went on to preach the Word of Faith, and change the lives of people all over the world— including Ken's and mine. Oral Roberts had a similar story. As a little boy, he had a severe speech impediment. He stuttered so badly all the other kids made fun of him. As a teenager, he collapsed on the basketball court during a tournament and was later diagnosed with tuberculosis. Instead of playing basketball, he wound up lying at home, weak, spitting blood and about to die. His sister, Jewel, heard about a healing evangelist, so she put him in their old car and took him to the meeting. "Oral, God is going to heal you," she said. He believed it, and it happened. He was miraculously raised up and went on to preach the gospel to multitudes, minister healing to the sick, and build a great Christian university. God sees things differently than we do! When He looked at those two sickly boys, He saw them as conduits for His power. He saw their weakness and everything they were lacking and thought, is gives Me something to do. He made Kenneth Hagin and Oral Roberts overcomers by filling them with His Spirit, and turned them into two world-changing, mighty men of God. He wants to do the same thing with you. So, quit looking at yourself in the natural and look at yourself in Jesus. Believe that you're an overcomer simply because He says so. Put your faith in His Word and let Him empower you to do whatever He's called you to do. It doesn't matter whether you're called to be a preacher, a homemaker, a bus driver or a brain surgeon, God has put His power in you to enable you not only to be supernaturally BLESSED, BUT TO BE A SUPERNATURAL BLESSING. He's called and equipped you to release into this world the kingdom of heaven that's within you, take dominion over your circumstances, and reach out to others and help them get free. at's what we, as believers, are here on earth to do! We're the Body of Christ. We're His hands. We're His feet. We're His mouthpiece. We're the ones He's sent to minister His power, love and BLESSING to the lost people out there in the world. So, for their sake as well as our own, let's rise up by faith and do it. Let's believe God's Word, live as the overcomers He created us to be, and "shine as lights in the world; holding forth the word of life" (Philippians 2:15-16). Let's use our faith to share the good news and show those who are still living as captives, that faith in Jesus can open prison doors and set them free! 3 0 : B V O V JULY BROADCAST CALENDAR Broadcasts subject to change without notice Kenneth Copeland July 1-5 The WORD Is the Victory That Overcomes All Kenneth Copeland July 7 How to Operate the Laws of Increase Kenneth Copeland July 8-12 Living Free From Condemnation NOW Kenneth Copeland July14 God's Great Love for You Kenneth Copeland July 15-19 The Laws of the Spirit Kenneth Copeland July 21 Love Gives the Answer Kenneth Copeland July 22-26 God's Word Is Final Authority Kenneth Copeland July 28 Heaven's Economics Kenneth Copeland bvovn .COM You Tube ® 4th Generation ® WATCH ON KCM.ORG.AU KCMAU SPP PODCAST Daystar Network Trinity Broadcasting Network
