Dear Mike,

Thank you for submitting your Praise Report about Mariah Steele! We will go to the web site to read more about her.  

We thank God for His goodness & answered prayer.  We know that God is faithful
to His Word & that “the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails
much.”(James 5:16)  We are thanking God with you & know that “and in all
things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.\"  

And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they
are yet speaking, I will hear. (Isaiah 65:24)

And this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything
according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us,
whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of Him. (1 John 5:14,15)

Praise the LORD! Oh, give thanks to the LORD, for He is good! For His mercy
endures forever. (Psalm 106:1)

PRAYER OF PROTECTION

PSALM 91

(The Living Bible)

We live
within the shadow of the Almighty, sheltered by the God who is above all gods.

This we declare, that He alone is our refuge, our place
of safety; He is our God, and we are trusting Him. For He rescues us from every trap, and protects us from the fatal plague.
He will shield us with His wings! They will shelter us.

His faithful promises are our armor. Now we don’t need to be
afraid of the dark anymore, nor fear the dangers of the day; nor dread the plagues of darkness, nor disasters in the
morning.

Though a
thousand fall at our side, though ten thousand are dying around us, the evil will not touch us.
We will see how the wicked are punished but we will not share it. For
Jehovah is our refuge! We choose the God above all gods to shelter us.
How then can evil overtake us or any plague come near? For He orders His angels to protect us wherever we go. They
will steady us with their hands to keep us from stumbling against the rocks on the trail. We can safely meet a lion or step on poisonous snakes, yes, even trample them beneath our feet!

For the Lord
says, “Because he loves me, I will rescue him; I will make him great
because he trusts in my name. When he calls on me I will answer; I will be with him in trouble, and rescue him and honor him.
I will satisfy him with a full life and give him my salvation.”

Psalm 112: 7

The Living Bible

We do not fear bad news, nor live in dread of what may happen. For
we are settled in our minds that Jehovah will take care of us.

HEALING

Building
Blocks of Life or Death

(Excerpts Taken From Charles Capps’ Book

God’s Creative Power For Healing)

Divine
healing is a spiritual cure. Medical science aids healing through physical
means by administering medicine into the physical body. God’s Divine
healing is spiritual. It is administered through the human spirit (1
Cor. 2:9-12). In Prov. 4:20-22, God tells us His word is life unto those
that find them, and health to all their flesh. GOD’S WORD WILL HEAL YOUR
BODY, but it does it through spiritual means. Healing can be received into
the human spirit through the Word. Once it is conceived there, it permeates
the physical body.

Just
as you would take medicine into your physical body to aid healing by
physical means, so YOU MUST RECEIVE GOD’S WORD CONCERNING HEALING INTO YOUR SPIRIT FOR SUPERNATURAL HEALING.
And like other medicine, it must be applied on a regular basis. You
must SPEAK GOD’S WORD to your individual circumstance or situation – someone else can’t do it for you.
James 1:21 admonishes us to receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your soul (and body).
Once the Word of God is engrafted into your spirit, it produces results in your body as well.

The
image that the Word creates in you is already a reality in the spirit realm. When
you speak God’s Word from your heart, then your faith frames your world daily. Jesus made it very plain “a good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good
things” (Mathew 12:35). Every
time you speak your faith, it creates a stronger image inside you. Eventually
the Word of God will perfect that image and you will begin to see yourself well. When
the Word is engrafted into you, it infuses its life into you (John 6:63, Rom. 8:11).

Faith
is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Heb. 11:1).
Hope is important, but hope lacks substance until filled with faith. Look
at the works of Jesus: “All things are possible to them that believe”
(Mark 9:23). If you had faith as a seed you should say” (Luke 17:6) “he
that believeth hath…” (John 3:36), whosoever shall say; he shall have” (Mark 11:23,24).
It is the Bible principle of BELIEVING AND CALLING FOR THINGS THAT ARE NOT YET MANIFEST, “daughter, thy faith
hath made thee whole” (Mark 5:34). Giving
voice to your faith in God’s Word can also make you whole.

God’s
word is spoken of in Proverbs 4:22
as being medicine to all flesh. It is the most powerful medicine available
today, and it is capable of healing your body without side effects.
Psalms 107:20 tells us that God sent His Word and healed… According to Isaiah 53:5,6 and 1 Peter 2:24 healing is a fact as far as God is concerned.

It belongs unto us because healing was in the
atonement (Isaiah 53:5,6).
Our confession of
the Word of God calls for healing which is already ours, but is not in manifestation in our bodies.
No, I am not teaching against doctors or medicine. But don’t
depend on doctors or medicine alone to keep you healthy. There are some
diseases that medical science cannot cure.

But, if you need a doctor, see a doctor. There are medicines today
that are beneficial in aiding the body’s healing process. If you are taken medicine,
mix faith with it by saying, “I believe I receive my healing in Jesus Name.” Most
medicines will help hold down the symptoms while you are applying God’s principles concerning
healing and health.

I
don’t advocate that you throw your medicine away and rely on confession alone unless the Lord directs you to do so.

It takes time to renew your mind and develop faith in your words as well as God’s Word.
But the things you are continually confessing eventually become part of you. DEATH and LIFE are
in the power of the tongue; and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof. (Prov.
18:21). In Isaiah 57:19, we were told to create the fruit of the lips.
Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord; and I will heal him.

It
takes time to develop faith to operate in these principles, so don’t let anyone put you under condemnation for going
to the doctors or having an operation. In other words, operate on your
level of faith, but don’t stay on that level forever. Continue in God’s
Word until you develop faith in the healing power of God’s Word.

Operating
in these principles is not easy. It takes discipline and commitment.
It’s not good enough just to read these confessions.

I encourage you to confess the Word audibly over your body two to three times a day.
Confess it with authority. It is not necessary for you to make these
confessions before others, for the words you speak are for your benefit.

God
declares that His Word will not return void. We are to return His Word by
giving VOICE to it, and He will create the fruit of our lips. Confessing
God’s word is a way you can fellowship with the Lord and increase your faith at the same time.
I challenge you to affirm these scriptural confessions audibly three times a day.

Don’t let it become a hit and miss proposition. Make it a practice
to take God’s medicine on a regular basis, just as you would any other medicine.
Then, it will be LIFE to you and HEALTH to your flesh.

GOD’S
MEDICINE

(To be spoken by mouth three times a day until faith
comes, then once a day to maintain faith. If your circumstances grow worse,
double the dosage. There are no harmful side effects!)

*Jesus
is Lord of my life; sickness and disease have no power over me. I am
forgiven and free from SIN & GUILT. I am dead to sin and alive unto
righteousness. (Col. 1:21,22).

*Jesus
bore my sin in His Body on the tree; therefore I am dead to sin and alive unto God and by His stripes I am healed and
made whole (1 Pet. 2:24, Rom 6:11, 2 Cor. 5:21). Jesus bore my sickness and
carried my pain. Therefore I give no place to sickness or pain.

For God sent His word and healed me (Ps. 107:20).

*You
have given me abundant life; I receive that life through Your Word and it flows to every organ of my body, bringing
healing and health (John 10:10, John 6:63).

*Heavenly
Father, I attend to Your Word. I incline my ear to Your sayings.

I will not let them depart from my eyes. I keep them in the midst of
my heart, for they are life and healing to all my flesh (Prov. 4:20-22).

*As
God was with Moses, so He is with me. My eyes are not dim, neither are my
natural forces abated. Blessed are my eyes for they see and my ears for
they hear (Deut. 34:7).

*No
evil will befall me, neither shall any plague come near my dwelling. For
You have given your angels charge over me. They keep me in all my ways.
In my pathway is life, healing and health (Ps. 91:10,11, Prov.
12:28).

*Jesus
took my infirmities and bore my sickness. Therefore, I refuse to allow
sickness or pain to dominate my body. The Life of God flows within me
bringing healing to every fiber of my being (Matt. 8:17, John 6:63).

*I
am redeemed from the curse Gal. 3:13 is
flowing in my blood stream. It flows to every cell of my body,
restoring life and health (Mark 11:23, Luke 17:6).

*The
life of 1 Peter 2:24 is a reality in my flesh, restoring every

cell of my body.

*I
present my body to God, for it is the temple of the Living God. God dwells
in me and His Life permeates my SPIRIT, SOUL AND BODY so that I am filled with the fullness of God daily
(Rom. 12:1-2, John 14:20).

*My
body is the TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST. I made a demand on my body to release
the right chemicals. My body is in perfect chemical balance. My pancreas secretes the proper amount of insulin for life and health

(1 Cor. 6:19).

*Heavenly
Father, through Your Word YOU have imparted YOUR LIFE to me. That life
restores my body with every breath I breathe and every word I SPEAK (John 6:63, Mark 11:23).

*That
which God has not planted is dissolved and rooted out of my body in Jesus Name. First Peter 2:24 is engrafted into every
fiber of my being, and I am alive with the life of God (Mark 11:23, John
6:63).

*Jesus
bore the curse for me; therefore I forbid growths and tumors to inhabit my body. The
life of God within me dissolves growths and tumors, and my strength and health is restored.

*Growths
and tumors have no right in me. They are a thing of the past for I am
delivered from the authority of darkness (Col. 1:13, 14).

*EVERY
organ and tissue of my body functions in the perfection that God created it to function.
I forbid any malfunction in my body in Jesus Name (Ge.
1:28-31).

*Your
Word is manifest in my body, causing growths to disappear. Arthritis is a thing of the past. I make demands on my bones and joints to function properly in Jesus Name
(Mark 11:23).

*Thank
You, Father, that I have a strong heart and lungs. My heart and lungs beat
with the rhythm of life. My blood flows to every cell of my body restoring
life and health abundantly (Prov. 12:14).

*I
have a strong heart. Every heartbeat floods my body with life and cleanses
me of disease and pain (Ex. 23:25, Mark 11:23).

*I
command my blood cells to destroy every disease germ and virus that tries to inhabit my body.
I command every cell of my body to be normal in Jesus Name (Rom.
5:17, Luke 17:6).

*I am
redeemed from the curse of the law and my heart and lungs beat with the rhythm of life.
The Spirit and life of God’s Words flow in me, cleansing my blood of every disease and impurity
(Prov. 4:20-23).

*In
Jesus Name, my arteries will not shrink or become clogged. Arteries you are clean, elastic and function as God created you to function
(Luke 17:6, Mark 11:23, Isaiah 55:11, James 3:2-5).

*The
law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death; therefore, I will not allow
sin, sickness, or death to lord it over me (Rom. 8:2, 6:13, 14).

*In
Jesus Name, I forbid my body to be deceived in any manner. Body, you will not be deceived by any virus or disease germ. Neither
will you work against life or health in any way. Every cell of my body
supports life and health (Matt. 12:25, 35).

*I speak to the bones and joints of my body.
I call you normal in Jesus Name. My bones and joints will not
respond to any disease; for the Spirit of life, 1 Peter 2:24 permeates every bone and joint in my body with LIFE and
HEALTH.

*Father,
I make a demand on my bones to produce perfect marrow. I make a demand on my marrow to produce pure blood that will ward off sickness and disease.
My bones refuse any offense of the curse (Prov. 16:24, Gal.
3:13).

*I
make a demand on my joints to function perfectly. There will be no pain or
swelling in my joints. My joints refuse to allow anything that will hurt or
destroy their normal function (Prov. 17:22).

*Body,
I speak the Word of Faith to you. I demand that every internal organ
perform a perfect work, for you are the TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST; therefore, I charge you in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ and my authority of His Holy Word to be healed and made whole in Jesus’name
(Prov. 12:18).

*I
will not die, but live and declare the works of God (Psalms 118:17).

Now
that you have gone through the important to your healing and health as the PRINCIPLE that could be the KEY to you being
a partaker of God’s provisions concerning your healing. That is the
PRINCIPLE OF CALLING THINGS THAT ARE NOT. In other words, God uses
spiritual forces, which are not seen to nullify natural things that are seen.
This is the Biblical principle of calling things that are not as though they were.
When it comes to divine healing, this is a vital principle. We
should declare ourselves what God’s Word reveals about us, regardless
of the circumstances or how we feel about it.

Notice,
the Word is first in your mouth and then in your heart. God’s Word becomes engrafted into your heart as you SPEAK. There
is nothing more important to your faith than declaring what God has said about you with your own voice.

Giving voice to God’s Word is a method of calling for things that God has given by promise and are not yet
manifest. When doing this, some would say that you are denying what exists,
but that’s not true at all. You are establishing what God has said
to be true concerning healing even though it is not yet a reality in your body. You
don’t deny that sickness exists, but you deny
it the right to exist in your body, because you have been redeemed
from the curse of the law and delivered from the authority of darkness (Gal.
3:13, Col. 1:13).

When
you are sick and confess that you are healed by the stripes of Jesus, you are calling for what God has ALREADY given
you, even if it is not yet manifest. This is God’s method of calling
things that are not as though they were until they are. You are calling
your body well according to Luke 17:5,6 and Mark 11:23. Your body is
listening to you and it will obey you IF YOU BELIEVE AND NOT DOUBT IN YOUR HEART. Your
body was created with the ability to heal itself and if every part functions properly, it will.
Some sickness is caused by a chemical imbalance in your body. You
can have what you SAY IN FAITH, but most people are saying what they have. Remember,
when you are sick; call yourself well, for you are calling for what you don’t have. If you put this into practice and make it a way of life, then your body will respond to your faith
demands that are based on the authority of God’s Holy Word.

I
challenge you to set aside some time by yourself, daily, to fellowship with God. Make
it a practice to mediate on His Word by speaking it to your body. Do it two
or three times a day. Then double up on your confessions in the area where
you have the most problems. Pray the Word of God over your body.
Declare it to be true until you are fully persuaded. Your body will
respond to your voice; how much more will it respond to GOD’S WORD SPOKEN IN FAITH?
