You may think you've got to get to a particular person so that he can pray for you. You don't need to get to anybody except the Lord Jesus Christ! That's what you need, and it's all you need. Come to God on your own.

Recently, I was ministering to about 2,000 people in Baltimore, Maryland. I was teaching on the importance of coming to God on your own and asking Him for mercy. While I was speaking, about 200 people got up and ran to the altar, fell down on their knees, and began praising God.

And all over the place, God began to heal them.

One lady had been pushed to the front in a wheelchair. After being shaken by the power of God for about 20 minutes, she arose from the wheelchair healed! I did not pray for her. She received from God on her own.

She came to God and showed great and deep appreciation for Jesus as her healer. She reminded Him of how much she loved Him and how much she knew He loved her. And after God shook her like a tree, she rose up and walked off.

Jesus said in Matthew 11:28, "Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden...."

You look up the scriptures that cover your case and you claim them boldly in Jesus' name. Go before the throne of God and remind God of what He said.

For we have not a high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore, come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
(Heb. 4:15-16)

Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.
(Isa. 43:26)

Claim a scripture for yourself and the Holy Spirit will absolutely perform it for you. When you confess Jesus as the best businessman in the world, it's amazing how much money He will make you.

He will help you accumulate things without much effort. He will show them to you. Put the gospel first and all these things shall be added unto you (Matt. 6:33).
