1 Andrew Wommack You Have Already Got It and It Is In The Spirit But it's in the spiritual realm and you have to bring it from the spirit into the physical realm. And how do you do that. Well there are just a multitude of things that are involved in this. But the principle is what I am trying to lay out here and get this across. I ll tell you if you can understand this it will make a difference in the way in which you receive from God. See now, when I pray for a healing and if I don t see a manifestation of what I have prayed for, then I never say God why haven t you done this? And I don t ever go back and start saying, Oh God I don t know why you haven t healed me yet.or healed this person yet! But we re just asking you God please move!. Oh God, Then we start fasting and praying and then we get other people to pray and we start bombarding heaven and trying to plead with God to make God do it. That whole mindset is unbelief. You didn t believe that you received when you prayed. You know that scripture over in Mark 11:24 (I have already used that in this series) says: Whatsoever things you desire, when you pray, believe that you received them and you shall have them. That verse says that you have to believe that you receive when you pray. Not when you see it but when you pray! Instantly. While you re praying. Now how can you do that? If you're praying, for instance, for a healing, and you don t feel healed instantly well then how can you believe that God answered your prayer? You can believe it if you understand that there is a spiritual world. And John 4:24 says that God is a spirit God moves in the spiritual world. The moment you prayed, BOOM it s already done. It s a reality in the spiritual world. And then if you don t see it manifest, don t doubt that God has done what His Word said that He did. You believe that you receive when you prayed. And then as you continue to pray, don t pray and ask for it anymore, but rather take authority and begin to: Bind any demonic powers that are hindering this thing from coming to pass. Begin to pray for revelation, if there is something you re supposed to do, as we were talking about in the financial realm

2 If you need to go out and get a job or ask, God if I need to give some money or sow some seed, God if I need to do something, well then show me what I need to do. See quit doubting that God has moved and that God had done it, God has already provided everything you need. It s already in the spiritual world. And it s just a matter of you believing that it s done. Since I have understood this principle, it has revolutionized the way I pray. Not only for myself, but also for other people. For me a classic example of what I m talking about is all the way back in 1977 in Childress Texas. And this wasn t long after the Lord had shown me these things about Daniel in Daniel 9 and Daniel 10. And I held a meeting and taught a message that I entitled, what to do when your prayers seem unanswered. And I talked about how that God has already done it, it s already been done. And that it is not a matter of us waiting on God to produce the healing, but it is already there in the spiritual world. And how we can provide this bridge for that to come into the physical world, through faith. In other words, faith, reaches over into the spiritual and and brings those things into physical manifestation. And so I was teaching that WE control how quickly healings manifest. You can make the power of God manifest. Because God has already done it. And so I held a meeting. We rented a place in Childress Texas. It was called the Women s Department Club. And we held a meeting and I don t even remember how many people were there. There might have been a 100, somewhere around there. And I taught this message. Then I said let s demonstrate. And I said do we have anybody here who s sick? Who has something wrong?" And we had a young 17 year old boy come up who was blind in one eye. And so I had taught that God is has already healed. It s a done deal. In the spiritual world it s a reality. And all we have to do is bring it over into the physical world. So I laid hands on him. I prayed, I rebuked everything I knew to do. I prayed and commanded him to see! And I said cover up your good eye and look through that bad eye and tell me how many fingers I have up? And I held my hand up in front of his face. He couldn t see anything! He couldn t even see my hand. He couldn t see light. Nothing! There was ZERO manifestation. I had to even take my hand and point it towards my other hand I was holding up. And, you know, grabbed his face and turned it. So, he wasn t even looking in the right direction.

3 And so when that happened, immediately, because of what people saw, they thought, Well this doesn t work, it s not true. And you could just feel the moans and the groans of unbelief. And so I turned around to the crowd. I said Look, I believe that what I m teaching is true. And we haven t seen it manifest. It s not because God hasn t healed him. It s not because we re waiting on God to heal him. It s because we are having trouble getting it from the spiritual into the physical. It s our fault, it s not God. And so I dismissed the crowd. And I said that Those of you that want to go, or need to go, you re welcome to go. If you want to stay around and if you want to stand in faith and believe that God has already done this, and it s just a matter of us believing and receiving. Then I said, You can stay and pray with me. And there was probably somewhere around 25 people that stayed to pray. So we just gathered around this young boy and we started praying for him. And we weren t asking Oh God you didn t heal the first time now heal! What we were doing was to say, Father we believe it s true that you ve already healed him. Your power has already been released. Whatever is keeping it from coming into physical manifestation, we bind. We ask you to give us wisdom, show us what s going on. We were praying in tongues, because the bible says you build up yourselves on your most hold faith, praying in the Holy Ghost. In Jude 1:20. And so we were doing all of these things. And we went on for I think it was about 30 minutes. And about every 5 minutes I d stop and have this boy cover up his good eye and look through his bad eye, the one that we were praying for, and tell me how many fingers I had up. He never was able to see my hand. That went on for nearly 30 minutes. And, I was getting to a place of God, something got to happen. I really believe this to be true but I don t know what s happening. So I was just asking God praying for wisdom. And all of the sudden the Lord, I feel like it was the Lord spoke to me and He said, He doesn.t need a healing, he needs a miracle! And when I had that thought come to me, my next thought was What s the difference I never thought about the difference between a healing and a miracle. Since then I ve learned some about it but still, it s an area I m still learning about. But that is the first time I d ever thought of it. I was just sitting there in my, praying in tongues outwardly but inside I was trying to think was this

4 really God? What would the difference be? Would this make a difference in the way we re praying? And as I was thinking about that, my associate, Don Crow, who was my associate pastor in Childress Texas. He s still with me today, He just spoke up and he said, Andrew God spoke to me and said he doesn t need a healing, he needs a miracle. I mean it was word-for-word what God spoke to me. So I knew that that had to be God. So I still didn t totally understand, so I stopped and I just asked this boy. I said, what s wrong with your eye anyway? And he said, well when I was a baby, I had an infection in my eye and they did surgery and they surgically removed the lens and retina from his eye. He said, I don t even have the parts of my eye there to be able to see. And as soon as he said that, I said, well man you don t need a healing, you need a miracle. You need a creative miracle. You need God to put those things there. Do we prayed again! And we didn t pray and say, Oh God, you didn t heal him the first time, now heal him. No, what we did say was Father, we believe that you healed him the very first time we prayed and now we just have more knowledge about what s going on. I cupped my hands over this boy s face and I spoke to his eye. Now I m not saying you have to do that. It is just what I did. It helped me focus my attention and my authority. And I spoke to that eye, and commanded a lens and a retina to come into his eye. In the name of Jesus! And then I had him cover up his good eye and look through that bad eye, And I said, How many fingers do I have up? And he said, one two! He could see. And God opened his eye. Now the truth is, God released that power before he was ever born. It was already provided through Jesus. And it was available in the spirit realm. The moment we prayed, I believe that God s power was in motion to bring that into physical manifestation. But there were some hindrances. I still don t understand everything that goes on. I don t know why I had to receive revelation that it wasn t a healing, it was a miracle. I believe that it was just for me. It was to quicken my faith. And when I had that happen, and Don confirmed it, it really made my faith surge and I took authority. And then, the Bible also says in Mark 11:23 that you have to say to this mountain, Be

5 removed. Most people don t talk to their mountain or their problem, they talk to God about their mountain or their problem. This says you have to speak to your problem. The problem was that this boy didn t have a lens and a retina to be able to see. And so I had to speak to them. And the Bible also says that you can create things. The creation, the creative power of the Word, death and life are in the power of the word. Proverbs 18. And so all of these things happened. It quickened my faith and then I spoke to a lens and a retina, commanded them to come and then he could see. You know, if we hadn t of persisted with this knowledge of what I have been sharing here on this tape. And if I would have just prayed for this boy, and believed God to heal him. I believe that in the spiritual realm it would have been done. And I believe that in the spiritual realm, God would have been moving. If this young man could have gone on and continued in faith, on his own. And not doubted. And have stood there, eventually that would have come into physical manifestation. It might have been a day, a week, a month, a year later. But, if nobody quit believing, if we didn t get into unbelief. If we stood in faith. I believe that what was true in the spiritual would have eventually manifested itself in the physical. But you know I don t think that happens very often. Most people that are struggling with something like that, there is just a lot of discouragement and over a period of time, instead of getting stronger and stronger in faith. Their faith gets weaker. And I think that by us just praying for people and letting them go, that we do a disservice. Now I have some very good friends who have healing ministries. And they just pray for the person and never look back. They don t ever think about it. They don t want to get into unbelief. And they see some good things happen. I m not saying that that doesn t work, to a degree. But I saying that it s just, just fraught with a lol kinds of problems. Because most people, if they don t see a physical manifestation of what they re praying for, in a relatively short period of time, they re going to get into unbelief!. And that s going to stop it from happening. And it doesn t have to go on like that. I believe that honestly that God has already done it. God has already provided. Everything is a done deal. And as soon as we can believe. As much as we can believe, and begin to start learning how the power of God works. We can make things manifest.

6 Some of the greatest healing evangelists had this same concept. They may not have taught it from the same scriptures. Or used exactly the same mentality I did. But they had this concept. I was just listening to a tape, this week, where a man was talking about John Lake and he read a letter from John G. Lake, who was one of the greatest healing evangelists of the early 1900 s. He had over 100,000 confirmed, documented cases of healing so much so that actually a hospital in Spokane, Washington closed down for a period of time, because there were so few people. That needed their services, because he was being so effective. And John G. Lake wrote a letter and I m paraphrasing but basically John Lake said that in his opinion, Of course he had a very effective- fruitful ministry. So I think that his opinion is worth taking into account. In his opinion the number 1 problem that kept people from seeing the healing that Jesus had purchased for them. From manifesting itself in their life, was the fact that people were just praying and asking and then passively waiting on God to heal them. Not understanding that God has already done it. And they aren t taking their authority and commanding it to come into manifestation now. It was this issue of just letting things drag out over weeks, months, years. Instead of believing God and making what God had already done in the spiritual world come into the physical world, that was the #1 problem by Dr. John G. Lake s opinion. And I believe that that is the exact same thing I m saying here. God has already done it. And we need to believe it is already done and then receive what He has done. And if you don t see a physical manifestation of what you have prayed for, then you have to get in and start: Battling your own unbelief You have to start receiving wisdom if there is something you need to do. If there is a demonic power involved, you ve to deal with that and break that power. And there is just a multiple things. But the principle is establish in Scripture that God has already done it.
