Friday March 1, 2013 Here are some details about my day at the office, it was amazing.

During the morning we had 3 Born again, 3 healed and 1 filled with the Holy Spirit who spoke in tongues! And there were more after lunch. First there was a couple in their mid-eighties who got born again in my office last summer. She showed me how she had pain in the upper left thigh when she tried to cross the left leg over the right leg while seated. That is characteristic of a degenerated hip joint. I looked at her x-rays and showed her how it was almost bone on bone on the left hip. I told her that she had two options: 1) to wait until it gets bad enough to have a hip replacement, or 2) we can pray. She opted for prayer. I commanded the pain to leave, bound hip joint degeneration and any demonic forces trying to steal, kill or destroy the abundant life that Jesus has purchased and paid for and released (loosed) the life of Christ in her to heal. She was seated when I prayed, so after I prayed I told her to cross that leg again. She had a look of amazement on her face as she crossed that leg repeatedly with no pain! She said I cant believe it! I explained to her that those were not the best choice of words, explained how death and life are in the power of the tongue. She re-phrased her comment as she was leaving: I believe, I believe! Next one was a lady with back pain. I prayed for the back pain, it seemed somewhat better. She said my arm still hurts. I said you didnt tell me to pray for that. I said, you pray and Ill coach you if you need it. She said thank you Father that we are healed by Jesus stripes, and I ask you to heal my arm in Jesus name. Then she looked at me and said Coaching? I said did you speak to the mountain? She said no, I didnt. I said pray again. She struggled for how to start the prayer. I said say the word pain. She said pain go! I said now try the arm out. She moved her arm and a shocked expression came over her face as she realized that she had spoken to the mountain, and that when she did, it had moved! Next I offered to pray for the knee of an 86 year old lady patient of mine. Before I did I asked if she had ever been born again. She said no. When I recited Rom. 10:9,10 to her and asked her if she believed that Jesus was Gods son and that God had raised him from the dead, she said yes. I asked if she wanted Jesus to be her Lord and that meant that she was willing to obey what He says. She said yes again, so she prayed and was born again. Then we prayed for her knee and she could straighten it out without pain which she couldnt do before. Then I went into the next room and talked to a patient, a guy who has led Bible Studies at his Lutheran Church, but after I gave him God Wants You Well last summer, he brought it back and said "I didn't have a quiet spirit when I read this". I asked why not and he said he thought that it went against the doctrines which were so ingrained in him. I asked if he felt more allegiance to the Word of God or to his doctrines, and he wrestled with that but couldn't come up with an answer. He has expressed doubts at every time I have seen him since and offered prayer for healing. Today I again offered and he said if God hasn't healed me, that God must not want me healed yet. I asked him about the scripture that says "by his stripes you were healed". He said "when I got saved I wasn't looking for it, it just came to me." I asked him if he had ever prayed Rom. 10:9,10. He said "I've led others in that prayer". I said the scriptures require that we confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe with our heart that God has raised him from the dead, you then will be saved. I asked him if he would like to do that and he was weeping from the inner turmoil that has been brewing in him for years and he said yes. So he prayed a heart-felt prayer and was born again with tears. I told him that he was made to be the temple of the Holy Spirit and that God wanted to have his Spirit not only live in him but flow out

of him like rivers of living water so he could minister to others out of the overflow. He was open so I laid hands on him and prayed and he wept and I told him to start praising God which he did. Then I told him to stop speaking in English and speak any sound or syllable that came to mind and he just flowed fluently praying in the Spirit! What an awesome experience for both of us. He felt so much at peace, then I prayed for his eyes to be healed, he's had cataract surgery, and told him to call me to go to lunch together after he sees the changes in his vision to tell me about the results . Then I spoke to a lady patient who has had a persisting shoulder pain. She just returned from 2 weeks in the Caribbean and was very brown. She was concerned about a spot on her skin and was headed to see the dermatologist after my appointment. I asked her if she would like me to pray for her health problems. She said yes. (I had given her God Wants You Well before her trip, but she hadnt read it yet.) Then I asked her if she had ever been born again, and after explaining to her what that was she prayed and was born again. I told her that she was now a believer and that one of the signs that would follow believers is that they will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. I said Ill pray for one of the problems and you pray for the other, Ill coach you if you need it. Which one do you want me to pray for? She said the shoulder. I commanded the pain to leave, bound Satan and disease and loosed the life of Christ in her to heal. Then I said you pray now. She did a pretty good job, I coached her a little. She had her ever-present iPad and as I spoke she was making notes speak to the mountain..bind Satan.loose the life of Christ in them. She was getting it. She said, Im a student too. She is an administrative nurse with our county, a very bright woman. She is already studying how to master the laying on of hands. That is awesome! Just another morning! (Just kidding. I called this the Holy Ghost hat trick for you hockey fans. I went to three consecutive rooms and someone was born again in each of the three rooms!) Then after lunch I had a patient who had not been in for 6 months. She has chronic disc degeneration of the discs in her neck, causing pain to radiate from her neck around her collarbone and into her shoulder and arm. She is in constant pain. I had told her 6 months ago that she may require surgery as our care was not helping her condition. Now that she was back to see me, I asked her if I had prayed for her 6 months ago, she said no. I said did you have the surgery? She had not. I said, thats a good thing, we have had three healed this morning! She really brightened up, I asked her if she was born again, she said yes enthusiastically. As I related to her the principles of speaking to the mountain and binding and loosing, she said now I get it. She said I have been struggling trying to push the mountain out of the way myself! What a revelation. I prayed for her and gave her a copy of God Wants You Well. When she left she said this was the most life-changing experience I have had. She called back later to thank me and said I get it! She really got an understanding of the principles of healing. We have given out The New You and the Holy Spirit, a book that Andrew Wommack gives out to those who are born again at his meetings, to everyone who is born again, and still giving out God Wants You Well, now up to approximately 230 copies. We have offered salvation to 33 people, 26 of which have received salvation. Two more a real close, they are in the process of reading both books. Thought you would like to know whats going on. Gods multiplied blessings to you, Dr. Dave Riffel
