ART: And there’s a difference between Your communion with the Father and mine right now. If I’d have been walking in the same kind of faith I’d have seen Your results! So teach me to be like You! And over and over and over He shows me these little things that’s He’s like here’s what you could have done better. I like to compare it to it’s almost like a dad teaching His son to ride a bike. When I started in healing ministry I’m praying for people to get healed and it was like 95% everybody’s getting healed. You know? And then all of a sudden around November it just stopped! All the results stopped! I’m like what do I do? Like did – was I wrong? I thought this was for every believer. Maybe it was a gift and it lifted. Like did I sin? What happened? So I went to the Lord. I’m like God why isn’t it working? Why is nobody getting healed? It’s been like a week and everybody I’ve ministered to – nothing! And He said well up until now you’ve been asking Me to do what I told you to do. Which in Matthew10:8 He commanded heal the sick. He didn’t say ask My Father to heal the sick!
JAMIE: Umm. Uh-huh!
ART: So I said oh! All right. So I stopped saying God please heal this person and I started saying be healed in Jesus’ name! And all the result came back! And then it was like – so it was almost like dad’s running alongside the bike and I’m going like I’m riding a two-wheeler. This is great and then he’s like all right, watch what you’re doing and he let’s go and boom! Right? And then he picks me up and he says all right. This time son hold that handlebar steady. Right? And the next time you know handlebar’s steady but next time – no one showed me how to stop this thing and I smack into a house. It’s like over the last 6 years I’ve had moment – more than 6 years now but I’ve had moment after moment of like the results shut down. I go to the Lord what do You want to teach me this time? And as soon as He teaches me I apply that and the results pick up again! So I never have this idea that I’ve arrived like just because healings are happening it’s not cause I’ve figured everything out. It’s because Dad’s running alongside the bike. And then He wants to grow me and mature me into sonship cause what can God do with a fully realized son? Jesus was just the tip of the iceberg! He said greater works than these will you do because I’m going to the Father!
JAMIE: Wow! This in incredible! Art, I appreciate your honesty! Look, we’re going to be right back. I’m going to ask Art how he stays motivated in his ministry [music begins] so that he can continue to press on for greater levels of glory, greater accuracy in healing! Stay tuned because you’re going to want to hear this!
