Our Guest Tony Kemp
TONY KEMP: I was in the state of Louisiana there was a woman who came forward for prayer. She had 60% bone loss. She was in a lot of pain. I came, when she came up to, and I prayed for her nothing happened. I said “Lord, what’s the problem?” The Lord spoke to me and He said “When she was much younger she had an abortion. She repented, asked me to forgive her but she never forgave herself. So I brought it up to her. Instantly she began to cry. As soon as she forgave herself because Jesus said in Luke 6 “Forgive and you shall be forgiven” instantly her pain disappeared and she was healed by Jesus. I was sharing earlier that there was a woman, I did a, a Minister’s meeting in Joshua Texas. A woman came up. She had one shoulder blade like this, another shoulder blade like that. And, uh, she was in tremendous pain. And the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said “She’s mad at her body. She has bitterness and unforgiveness at her body because she can’t do what she used to be able do. Tell her to forgive her body.” In Luke 6 Jesus says “Forgive and you shall be forgiven.” He doesn’t say who and He doesn’t say what. The minute I ask her to forgive her body she yell, she puts out a yell, and she goes UHHH! And her, and her shoulder blades go “Phoooh” and become even and her pain disappears!
AUDIENCE: Whooo! (APPLAUSE)
TONY: I remember a case. I’ll never forget this case. Uh, this was a, uh, uh, a Hispanic, uh, brother. He spent a lot of time in, in prison. Uh, he had, he had come to church. Uh, uh, you know, he was kind of a street guy. It was a middle class church. They didn’t understand him, uh, he didn’t understand them. And he got hurt in church, because, you, you know, and he developed bitterness and unforgiveness toward the people. And he, then he had cancer. I so I said to him you need to forgive the people. And he obeys the word. He said this. He said when he obeyed the people he said it was as if lightning struck him! The pain disappears. He goes back to the doctor and they could find no trace of the disease!
AUDIENCE: (APPLAUSE)
TONY: The first thing I want to say to you is this. I want you to go before God and I want you to forgive everybody. That means ex-husbands and ex-wives. That means son-in-laws and daughter-in-laws. That means father-in-laws and mother-in-laws. That means employers, supervisors, and employees. And if you are mad at your body, I want you to forgive your body. Because the word says, Exodus 15:26: “I’m the Lord who heals you.” The word says in Exodus 23:25: “The Lord will take your disease away.” The word says in Isaiah 53, that Jesus: “was wounded for your transgressions, bruised for your iniquities, the punishment that brings you peace was placed upon him and with his sufferings at the whipping post we are healed.” The word says “by his wounds you were healed.” And see this is what I say to people: I say, Listen, if you get healed I don’t take the credit. If you don’t get healed, I don’t take the blame!
AUDIENCE: (LAUGHTER)
TONY: Look at somebody and say: “Because the Hebrew songbook says…
AUDIENCE: The Hebrew songbook says…
TONY: that God sends His word and heals you.”
AUDIENCE: …that God sends His word and heals you!
TONY: So you really don’t need my hand to be laid upon you. Look at somebody and say, “the presence of the Lord is here!”
AUDIENCE: The presence of the Lord is here!
TONY: Look at somebody and say, “the power of the Lord is here!”
AUDIENCE: The power of the Lord is here!
