So that from his body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. — ACTS 19:12

During Campmeeting 1978, two women brought handkerchiefs and laid them down on the altar. One brought a handkerchief for her uncle who was sixty years old and had been in a mental institution for thirty-eight years. The doctor said he would die in that institution because he wasn’t responding to any of the treatments they were giving him.

She took that handkerchief from Campmeeting and gave it to her uncle. She didn’t tell him what it was. He wore that handkerchief for ten days. On the tenth day, suddenly—as quick as you could snap your fingers—his mind was perfectly all right!

In fact, when she wrote me the letter, she said, “He’s home. They’ve pronounced him normal and have dismissed him.”

Now the other woman brought a handkerchief for her brother who was only twenty-eight years old. He had a similar condition. The doctor said his condition was incurable. So she gave the handkerchief to him, and within three days, his mind was perfectly all right!

The Bible says that God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul (Acts 19:11). Well, your hands are part of your body. Paul laid his hands on those cloths. And the anointing flowed into them and saturated them with God’s power. Those cloths became storage batteries, so to speak, of God’s power.

When the handkerchiefs were taken to the sick and laid on them, that power was transmitted to their bodies. The diseases departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them.

Confession: The power of God is greater than the power of the devil. The power of God is greater than sickness and disease. The power of God drives out any sickness and disease in my body.
