“And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also” (Genesis 1:16).

n the Scriptures, “light” symbolizes “truth.” As the two great lights the Lord made (the sun and the moon), one being greater than the other, so are the greater truths and lesser truths revealed to us in the Word of God. All the wonderful truths revealed to us in the Gospel don’t rank equally; some are greater than others. Your desire should be to always function in the revelation of the greater truths. Studying the life of the Lord Jesus will show you clearly how to walk in the greater truths of God’s Word. Divine healing, for example, is a truth and a blessing from God; it’s wonderful to know that no matter the nature of the sickness, you can receive healing. But there’s a greater truth to that, and it’s the fact that you can live in divine health every day of your life; I’m talking about a state where you are sickness, disease and inirmity free—never needing to be healed.

world” (Emphasis added). ‘The spirit of antichrist’ refers to the devil and his activities in this world. According to John, our origin is divine and we’ve been made champions over the devil and all circumstances of life. Sadly, the quality of life for many Christians is incongruous with what the Bible describes. Many of them are in dire straits; some are either sick or living with peculiar inirmities in their bodies, while some others are jobless or in inancial predicaments. To them, their problems are more real than the glorious life which the Bible talks about. And so, their prayer times are spent telling God about their many problems. The situation reminds of the blind who can only see darkness.

Deliverance is also a great truth, but living in divine protection is a greater truth. There’s something greater and better than you getting into trouble for God to bring you out of it; that’s divine protection—God shielding you completely from trouble. That’s the greater truth, and that’s the revelation by which you ought to live.

You’ve got to understand that God is like a mountain; the farther away you are from the mountain, the smaller it looks to you; the closer you are to it, the bigger it looks. If you neglect God and His Word, the problems of this life will overwhelm and drown you. But if you ix your gaze on the Word of God, regardless of your conditions, you’ll come out victorious and successful in everything you do (Jeremiah 17:7-8). This is the life of the new creation; this is who God has made you.

2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away; behold all things are become new.” This Scripture is referring to the man who is born again. This new creation is a new species of being that never existed before; he is a new kind of man, a new race. John tells us something beautiful about this new race in 1 John 4:4: “Ye are of God (you belong to God; you hail from Him), little children, and have overcome them (the spirit of antichrist): because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the

Therefore, if you want to live the tremendous and awesome life that you have in Christ, make up your mind to set your attention on God’s Word and give utmost priority to fellowship with the Holy Spirit. When you understand that your life is hid with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3), and that in Him you live, and move and have your being (Acts 17:28), you’ll not be deliverance conscious, for you know that nothing shall by any means hurt you (Luke 10:19). So, in your life, put the Word to work, for the Word is the true light.

akudzwa Karimazondo was nineteen years old and full of visions for his future. He had his whole life ahead of him. Then everything changed when he began to notice peculiar symptoms in his body. Knowing his family’s medical history, he had a fair idea what the problem could be, but he was still too young. Surely, he still had some time. But the symptoms persisted, so he went to the hospital, half hoping that it would be something else. Sadly, when he got to the hospital, the diagnosis was what he had feared. He had type I diabetes, and thus began his ordeal. He was immediately placed on insulin injections, and given many instructions that would guide his daily activities if he was to avoid a crisis. “I was told that I cannot consume sugar at all. If my blood sugar was too high, I risked falling into a sugar coma, and if it was too low, I could faint as well,” Takudzwa states. The severity of his condition made it impossible for Takudzwa to live a normal life. No more take-outs or parties, as every meal had to be carefully planned and balanced. Despite all the extra attention to eating right and exercising more, complications still arose due to mistakes in the insulin treatments. These included diabetic proliferative retinopathy and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). “I was admitted to the hospital’s Intensive Care Unit due to DKA, which meant that my body had developed excess 04 | The Healing School Magazine

acids and become toxic from lack of insulin,” he reports. For two years, Takudzwa battled many symptoms as the condition deteriorated. He became malnourished due to loss of appetite and frequent nausea. Fatigue, sleeplessness, cold sweats, shaking its, mood swings and pain were a constant part of his days. He took all the medications prescribed, but whatever relief they provided didn’t last. “The medications I was on included about ten tablets every day, and I had to inject myself four times daily, but the pain was always there,” he recalls. Takudzwa’s life had changed with many undesirable developments. This afected him both emotionally and psychologically, and his life gradually became more and more isolated: “When my blood sugar levels were abnormal, I became aggressive and paranoid. Emotionally, it was draining and frustrating. I became more reserved and withdrew from socializing because I had this constant fear that something would happen and I’d need someone to take care of me. I had always wanted to pursue a career in sports, but it didn’t look like it was going to happen. Life in that condition was very diicult because I could barely walk and I could barely stay conscious. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I cried. I felt like my body was giving up and I, too, slowly started giving up on myself.”

It was at this time that Takudzwa became aware of the Healing School. Inspired by the testimonies and praise reports he had heard, he was assured that this would be the end to his problems. In his own words, he came to the Healing School because he believed that God had plans for him; “He did not bring me into the world to live a life of sickness and inirmities.” In spite of his dire condition, Takudzwa’s heart was full of faith and he came with deep expectations for the miraculous. Relating his unique encounter with the infallible power of God at the Healing School, Takudzwa says, “On the healing service day, I saw my miracle manifesting, even before the man of God got to me. As the man of God came close to me, I can’t really describe it, but I could feel that something was coming, I could feel chains breaking and the darkness leaving me. And when Pastor Chris put his hands on me, it was game over for the devil. Whatever had been inside my body came out and I was free of sickness. I could talk easily, I ate my ill, and I started glowing with health and vitality.” Healed and whole, Takudzwa has since returned to a normal life. He talks about the things he can do once again and the signiicance of this awesome miracle in his life: “My healing was absolute, and it’s been life-changing for me. I am totally happy that I haven’t been to the hospital in over a year; no sickness whatsoever, and no medication. I am back to school, playing sports, and singing; my life has meaning again. This testimony means a lot to me because I have seen God’s love in my life, and I get to tell others to trust in Him so that their lives will never be the same again. My healing has also put a smile on my mother’s face, and I’m so glad. When we received this miracle, it was like we both just became alive.” Takudzwa gives thanks to those who made his miracle possible: “I’d like to thank the man of God for changing my life. Thanks to you, I’m where I need to be with God. I am now focused on the path that I should have been on my entire life. And to the partners, thank you for everything that you are doing. Keep doing it, so that you change the world more and more, until everyone receives their healing and walks in divine health and prosperity.” His last words are for those who would take that step of faith to obtain victory over sickness and disease–those who would attend subsequent Healing School sessions: “I strongly suggest that you bring yourself to the Healing School and get healed because you know your life needs to change for the better. When you come here, you will learn to conquer anything you set your mind to.” Visit www.enterthehealingschool.org for information on how to attend a Healing School session.

am the senior pastor of New Covenant Fellowship Family Worship Center in Richmond, Virginia, USA. And we are partners with Pastor Chris and Christ Embassy. I’ve been to the Ministers’ Visitation Program several times, as well as other programs and conferences with Pastor Chris, because he is such a tremendous inspiration. I can’t tell you how appreciative I am to be part of this man of God’s work. I call him the Apostle to the nations because I feel that his ministry has the commission to bring the body of Christ together.

“

When Pastor Chris laid his hands on me, it gave me the strength and the power that I needed, and the grace was elevated in my life.

”

I irst came to the Healing School seven years ago, and since then, I’ve been addicted to the Gospel as preached by our man of God, Pastor Chris. I never get used to it; there is always more revelation, and a deeper understanding. Pastor Chris’ teaching brings about an elevation in my spirit. When Pastor Chris laid his hands on me, it gave me the strength and the power that I needed, and grace was elevated in my life. I have a greater grace on my life, and it’s amazing to me the things that I am capable of handling. I have received divine ability, and I know that I received that through Pastor Chris. When I get home after the Healing School, I do what the Spirit of the Lord has given me the ability to do, and it’s been continuous growth. I’ve been primed and conditioned to bring forth much fruit, and my fruit remains. So, I’ve become a wonder to a lot of people because of the conidence and the manifestation of the Holy Spirit in my life and because of the greater grace that I’m now walking in. Whatever I’m asked to do by the Spirit of God, I’m able to perform. I have seen the miraculous in my church. In the body that I oversee now, there is such a movement of the Spirit. When we pray, we get results. When we lay hands, the sick are healed; and there is really never anyone who’s sick in the congregation because we know the Word. For me, to give back is very important. I understand to sow, especially if you’re receiving. I decided to broadcast the message of Pastor Chris on TV, just giving back a portion of what I received. The viewers receive the impartation that I’ve received, and so it continues to develop and to grow within the body of Christ. It’s good to know that I’m a part of the building up, the increase, of the Kingdom of God, as I spread the Gospel. Pastor Chris, I appreciate you. I thank God for you, and I know that the Lord will continue to increase you, bless you, and show forth His great grace in your life. I’m glad to be a part of, and to be a witness of, what the Lord has done and what He is going to do through you because of what you sellessly do for others. Thank you so much, Pastor. I love you. God bless you. I want to tell the ministers who are reading this: every gift of God is for the building of the Kingdom of God. And He has sent help for whatever you need. Go to www.enterthehealingschool.org and see what God is doing in Pastor Chris’ ministry. Wherever you may be, ind your way and come.

he much awaited February 2019 Healing School Online Prayer Conference was a phenomenal episode. Designed for prayers and intercessions for the sick– particularly those registered for the Healing School Autumn Session in South Africa–this Prayer Conference marked an auspicious moment for rewriting the courses of so many lives. The Online Prayer Conference kicked of with moments of worship, and a special address from the Chief Executive

08 | The Healing School Magazine

Oicer of Loveworld Incorporated and Director of the Healing School, Pastor Deola Phillips. Intimating millions of viewers from more than two hundred nations on the import of this event, Pastor Deola said, “The healing ministry of our man of God, Pastor Chris, is a part of the expression of God’s love. This Conference is all about God’s people coming together in unity, and in oneness of faith and purpose, to direct the power of God toward the Healing School Autumn Session in South Africa. Today, Jesus will be gloriied, and it’s because we are

all joining together to pray as the Scriptures instruct us to.” Pastor Deola went on to recap the incredible 2018 episodes of the Prayer Conference and the glory that followed, “We made power available, and we saw tremendous impact at the sessions and throughout the work of the Healing School in the year 2018.” This inspired participants worldwide to anticipate increased displays of the supernatural in the course of this irst 2019 edition. She further prepared the viewers with an admonition to, “Be alert. Listen to the testimonies. Pray. Be inspired and let the Holy Ghost do something in your life, for you and through you.” In the discussions that followed, the esteemed Pastor Deola and several senior ministers in the Loveworld Ministry talked about the wonderful exploits and testimonies that were recorded through the sessions and various outreaches of the Healing School in 2018. Talking about the Healing School, Evangelist (Dr) Eddy Owase said, “The Healing School is the in-thing right now. Every day is inspiring, refreshing and enriching. What happens there is beyond healing, it makes the total man–spirit, soul and body.” Another topic discussed was the impact of previous Prayer Conferences, and the ministers shared various testimonies of salvation and accounts of miraculous experiences reported by participants, even long after the programs. Pastor Lanre Alabi enjoined the viewers to pray and worship, asserting thus: “Your faith is extremely important, and your connection will start someone else’s miracle.” Pastor Mary Owase corroborated this, saying, “As you pour your heart out to intercede, there’s a refreshing for you, and for someone else.” ‘Living testimonies’ were on set at the Prayer Conference to share their indelible encounters with the healing power of God. These were those whose stories of triumphant faith inspired the hearts of others watching who were sick or in need. From spiritual attacks, to breast cancer, neuroendocrine tumor, rheumatic heart disease, etc., the testiiers not only narrated their supernatural healing from those debilitating illnesses at the Healing School, but were also radiant with life, and a passion for the Master who healed and restored them. “Going to the Healing School was my only hope,” said Ian Fredman, who attended the Healing School in 2013 and has been enjoying an unlimited life, free from prolapsed intervertebral disc. Alice Boyer testiied enthusiastically of her new life and strength since she became free from spiritual attacks, after attending the Healing School. Encouraging viewers to take that step of faith, she said, “God doesn’t want you to sufer. He wants you healthy and perfectly happy. Come to the Healing School, and you will get so much more than healing. Don’t hesitate.” Commenting on the several exciting testimonies, Reverend Ray Okocha remarked on the relevance of the Healing School today. “The Healing School is a complete place where people receive healing for the spirit, soul and body. People need healing today, and it’s so heartening to see them receive healing; modern day miracles, not just what you see in the Bible. It’s such a great joy.” Punctuating the Conference at opportune moments were segments of intense, earnest prayers where the senior ministers led the global audience to intercede. All made

supernatural deposits of power as they prayed. Thanksgiving resounded to God for His works, and incomparable feats accomplished through the Healing School in 2018. Believers all around the world raised their voices and prayed about the seamless logistics for the session, ease of transportation and a special grace for those who desired to attend the session, as well as special blessings for partners and the staf and volunteer workers of the Healing School. The participants also made supplications for sick people all over the world to receive strength and healing in their bodies. Every moment of labor in prayer at the Conference was rewarding, with notes of victory and words of faith released into the realm of the spirit, ushering in seasons of divine healing and health for many around the world. The Prayer Conference came to a highpoint when the ministers began to intercede specially for all those who sent in prayer requests for healing in their bodies and for their loved ones. What a moment of power it was as the ministers boldly announced words of healing and restoration on those alicted with kidney diseases, poor eyesight and other inirmities! Testimonies followed, and signs and wonders were wrought by the power of God that swept across the nations in that moment. Kelvin from the United States stood up from the wheelchair for the irst time, after six years of incapacitation due to spinal cord compression and began to walk around in his house. John from the United Kingdom rejoiced, as his brother who was hitherto mentally challenged became calm instantly after the prayers and called John by his name for the irst time in six months, requesting for a meal. There was great celebration as growths, pain and weakness disappeared from many who testiied through the contact centers. From Cameroon, Leopoldine wrote: “Glory to God! I started having a sharp pain in my stomach and it even went through my back. But as we were praying for those who sent in their prayer requests, I suddenly found out that the pain had disappeared. I am grateful to God for the Conference.” About a week after the Conference, Lloyd from South Africa testiies: “I have a relative who had a stroke and is in his midsixties. Doctors said he was getting worse and hallucinating at the time. I joined my faith as we prayed during the Healing School Prayer Conference. Today, I just heard that he is in a better state and has been discharged. He’s able to do things for himself. This year will be the highest level of God’s manifestation in the Healing School. I can already see it.” Many also responded to the altar call and were launched into a glorious new life in Christ. Sunday, February 24th, will remain a memorable day in history, replete with healings, miracles, salvation and the birthing of new seasons of healing and health through the Healing School. True to the prophecies and words of faith that came forth at the Healing School Online Prayer Conference, the 2019 Healing School Autumn Session, thus far, has been an outpouring of grace and ministrations of light and life. With each day full of expressions of love, power and faith, the Name of the Lord is continually gloriied. You can still be a part of the 2019 Healing School Autumn Session in Johannesburg, South Africa, by partnering with the Healing School. Visit www.enterthehealingschool.org for details.

any don’t think something as easy and comfortable as walking should count as exercise. They’re wrong. In recent times, daily life has become pretty fast paced, especially for city dwellers. All around the world, more people are dealing with increasingly busy schedules and barely have enough time to complete daily tasks. A daily workout in the gym may not be a feasible exercise option for you, but a walk a day will deinitely go a long way in keeping you healthy. As simple as it may sound, taking a walk can improve your itness level. It is free, highly recreational and suitable for all ages. Health-wise, there are many gains to be had from taking daily walks, some of which include: • Strengthening your joints, bones and muscles, thus reducing the risk of developing diseases such as osteoporosis and arthritis. • Maintenance of lean muscles and increase in cardiovascular endurance, which help reduce the risk of some chronic diseases such as heart diseases, diabetes, some cancers and stroke. • Aiding digestion and speeding up your metabolism, thereby helping you maintain a healthy body weight. • Relieving stress and anxiety. Here are some basic, helpful information that you need to aid you in planning more efective and healthier walks in the near future. 1. Set easy targets and pace yourself. You can set a goal for walking thirty minutes every day, and then gradually work towards hitting this daily. Once you’re comfortable with the thirty-minute goal, you can set a higher goal. You must walk briskly for it to be considered as exercise (i.e. fast enough to increase heartbeat and breathing, but slow enough that you can still talk). Your routine should include at least a ive-minute easy-paced walk at the beginning and at the end of your walk, so that your heart rate can steadily speed up and slow down.

2. Choose company for your walks. Walk with a friend, it’s harder to back out if you know someone else is waiting for you. You can also make your daily walks a family afair, and add fun activities to your health routine. Additionally, challenge one another, to see who can cover more distance within your allotted walking time. 3. Use a pedometer. You may either choose a gadget that you can attach to your clothes or wear around your wrist, or you can use an app on your phone. A pedometer will help you keep track of how many steps you’ve taken each day, thus spurring you to achieve your set goal. Fitness researchers consider you to be active if you can successfully complete 10,000 steps every day. 4. Plan weekly activities that involve walking. Whether for entertainment or to run errands, plan some of your activities each week that will require walking. That will take the edge of having to struggle to complete the tasks all week long. 5. Use the right techniques. The right walking posture will make your exercise easier, reduce pain, sores or discomfort, and yield better output by helping you burn more calories and fat. Tips include: • Stand tall with your spine elongated and breastbone lifted. Firm your tummy and latten your back as well to prevent back pain and allow your lungs to fully expand • Keep your head straight, your eyes forward and shoulders relaxed • Take smaller, more frequent steps to protect your knees. Roll your feet from heel to toe as well • Swing your arms freely • Breathe deeply through your nose or mouth. Oxygen will refresh your muscles as you move Make walking a daily habit; choose that time of the day that’s most convenient for you and avail yourself of the mental, emotional and physical beneits of this pleasurable exercise!
