DAVE: It’s really simple. Emotional healing for most people is not that difficult, especially for symptoms like fibromyalgia. Chronic pain. The emotional healing process I use is very simple. Think about the worst traumatic events of your lifetime. Interactions you’ve had with parents or friends or whoever. Just when you think about the memory of that event causes shame or anger or fear or some negative emotion. Take the emotion. Identify the emotion. Tell Jesus I ask you to take this emotion from me. Ask Him to heal the wound in your soul. Tell Him you receive His healing. And what you’ll find out is He will take that emotion out of you. He’ll heal the wound in your soul and you will never feel that emotion again related to that event! I’ve done this with hundreds of people!
PAT: Wow!
DAVE: And I’ve done it in the ambulance. In 5 or 10 minutes you can get somebody emotionally healed. It doesn’t take a lot of time. You can do it at a coffee shop. If you’re sitting there talking to somebody who’s having a bad day you can take them through emotional healing in 10 minutes and get them healed!
PAT: So you’re telling me you don’t have to be at a church?
DAVE: No.
PAT: And you’re telling me, that you can be at a Walmart. You can be in –
DAVE: Anywhere!
PAT: In a restaurant. And what does God do? Does He speak to you and say – does he give you a prophetic download on someone?
DAVE: He sometimes but it’s not necessary. You know we were at a political rally a couple of months ago and we’re at dinner with a bunch of people talking and this one gal and I got to talking. We were just having dinner. And I never met her before. And she was telling me about some chronic pain that she was having. And I said well you know let me pray for you. And I said but first, nowadays I almost always start with emotional healing because even though you can have those physical symptoms of pain, I have learned that emotional healing is just a great place to start. So we talked about some of her emotionally traumatic events. You know divorces that she had been through. Got her healed of that stuff. The anger and the shame and the guilt. And it was just a very natural conversation like we’re sitting here talking at a restaurant. Someone I had never met before. And you don’t have to be at church. You can do it anywhere!
