Be Yourself by Richard Roberts



Regularly when I am going into a grocery store, folk will recognize me and ask for prayer. And when they do I'm not saying, "Let's go out in the parking lot." I'll stop whatever I'm doing and pray for them right there.

One time I was in the frozen food section with ice cream in one hand and frozen vegetables in the other when a lady came up and asked me to hope for her to be healed. When I put down the frozen food and laid my hands on her head, I thought she going to go thru the ceiling due to my cold hands.

She said, "I didn't know the anointing was so cold!" I said, "No ma'am, that was the frozen food." Why do I tell you that story? Because it's real, just like Jesus was real. Often folk see Lindsay and me on TV and they want to know, "Are they real?" I believe Jesus wants each one of us to be real. We all have our faults and quirks, but God made us to be unique people.

There's no one else like you on earth. So if you have been putting yourself down, stop it. Stop thinking you aren't used by God. Be yourself! When God leads you to touch somebody with His healing power, do not be concerned about what to say or do.

In Mark 13:11 NIV Jesus told His disciples, do not be disturbed previously about what to assert. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it isn't you speaking, but the Holy Spirit. It isn't your power ; it's God's-and He would like you to let him work thru you. When you're not scared to be yourself, he will be able to work thru you any place in the world, even the middle of a grocery store!

About Richard Roberts

In 1981 Roberts set up the town of faith Medical and Research Center, the biggest health facility of its kind in the world, in order to merge the healing streams of prayer and medicine as God had revealed it to him. The city of faith was in operation for eight years and closed in late 1989, having revolutionized the medical world's idea of first patient care and the importance of treating the entire person-spirit, mind, and body.
