Teaching Series: Walking in Dominion over Sicknesses and Diseases. Part 4
Ministering: Bishop David Olaniyi Oyedepo
No one’s unbelief or opinion can render your faith of no effect.
Deu. 30:19; I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
Faith is the staff of office for believers. It establishes the dominion of believers and rules over the storms of life.
Faith in God and His Word is the ruling power in the world of the spirit.
– 1 John 5:4 “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”
There is no irreversible case with faith.
Faith never requires an external support to deliver.
You are absolutely responsible for the outcome of your life.
Beware of pride; it is one of your foremost enemies.
Every deformity is the working of satan.
Foul spirits behind sicknesses and diseases
1. The spirit of pride.
– Matt. 5:5 ”Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.”
2. The spirit of deformity (deaf & dumb spirit).
– Mark 9:25 “When Jesus saw that the people came running together, he rebuked the foul spirit, saying unto him, Thou dumb and deaf spirit, I charge thee, come out of him, and enter no more into him.”
Biblical Background of the Mystery of the Prophetic Mantle
Psa.45:6-8 “ Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of thy kingdom is a right sceptre.
7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows.
8 All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia, out of the ivory palaces, whereby they have made thee glad.”
– The anointing upon God’s prophets flows down any material that touches them.
– The mantle is a platform for the replication of unction.
– Rom. 11:29 ” For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.”
– The mantle is an avenue for invoking special miracles.
What is a Mantle?
1. It is a clothing material from an anointed man that also carries the anointing on him.
2. It is a spiritual medium for the transference of power.
– Acts 19:12 “So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.”
3. It delivers special miracles.
– It is not a magic wand; it is a mystery of the kingdom.
To tap into the virtue of the prophetic mantle:
1. Believe in the ministry of the carrier of such virtue.
– Matt. 10:41 “He that receiveth a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receiveth a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward”.
2. Honour the carrier in your heart, not just with your mouth.
– Mark 6:4 “But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.”
– Isa. 29:13 “Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men:”
3. Crave for the virtue upon the carrier.
4. Recognise that the virtue on the carrier is above the virtue on your life.
– Heb. 7:7 “And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.”
What to Expect from the Mantle impartation
1. Your special miracle needs shall be met.
2. The instant manifestation of signs, wonders and special miracles.
3. The testimonies of others that were provoked through the prophetic mantle shall be replicated in your life.
To take delivery of your enough is enough package:
1. Be born again and remain so.
– 1 John 5:4 “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.”
– Eph 5:8 “For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:”
2. Be committed to serving God for all-round rest.
– 2 Sam. 24:16 “And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of Araunah the Jebusite.”
3. Engage a violent cry of faith to secure your rescue.
