“For she said, ‘If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole.’ And straight way the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. And Jesus said unto her, ‘Daughter, thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace, and be whole of thy plague'” (Mark 5:28-29, 34).
The Lord Jesus Christ gave me a sermon during a vision in 1953. He told me to get pencil and paper and to write down 1, 2, 3, 4.
Then He said, “If anyone, everywhere, will take these four steps, or put these four principles into operation, they will always receive whatever they want from Me, or from God the Father.”
The steps Jesus gave me are simple. They are:
1) Say it
2) Do it
3) Receive it
4) Tell it.
Jesus used the healing of the woman with the issue of blood to illustrate these four steps.
Step 1: Say it. What was the woman’s first step toward being healed? For she said, “Jesus told me,” positive or negative, according to what the individual says, that shall he receive. This woman could have made a negative statement instead of a positive one.
She could have said, “There’s no use. I’ve suffered so long. All the best doctors have given up on my case. I might as well go ahead and die.” And that would have been what she received. But she made a positive statement and it came to pass. What this woman said was her faith speaking.
Confession: I have what I say. I speak positively and I receive accordingly. What I say is my faith speaking. And what I say makes me whole.
