Our Guest Dr. Clarice Fluitt
SID:Clarice, what happens in hell when we are stating, because we believe it, the opposite of God’s word?
CLARICE:That’s the difference between agreeing with God and agreeing with your circumstances. We either agree with our covenant with God, but when we begin to say, I’m sick, I’m oppressed, I’m down, I’m out, I’m weak, all of those negative things you release into the atmosphere an invitation. It’s like a scent that is released in hell of unbelief and all of hell says, “The sons of God say they’re sick, the sons of God say their children are in drugs and alcohol, the sons of God… And they have all power, so now we can be released to fulfill their words because hell has no power until the church speaks.” The word of the Lord is in you. We have all power, all authority and responsibility and privilege to agree with God. So what happens in hell? They can’t do anything until the redeemed say the negative. That’s why we have to agree with God.
SID:Now, how important is it for us to agree with God for heaven to impact earth?
CLARICE:The scripture says that, “Are the angels not ministering spirits sent forth from God to aid us who the heirs of salvation.” For when you and I speak the word of God, we agree with the truth of God to the degree that we comprehend it and understand it. Then the angel says, “We hear God speaking and the God lives in you and he’s coming at you.” You become a launching pad of the antidote to the antichrist. So what happens is that angels harken to perform the word of God that has spoken so you have superior air power. We are living in great days.SID:You mentioned a little earlier that we are a launching pad for God. Explain.
CLARICE:Well, the scripture says, “Out of your belly flows rivers.” Now, rivers by design flow away from themselves and that the word of God, it’s not a river, it’s rivers. So you and I release the word of God and it flows into the sea of humanity and that nothing happens until we speak. We are made in the image and the likeness of God and we can’t… God didn’t think us into existence. He didn’t just into existence. He said, “Light be, and light jumped up. There it is. But we are made in that image. So words, Jesus is the word of God made flesh. We are flesh being made into the word of God. You are a word from the mouth of God so you reflect and absorb glory as no other person does. So we release the infallible, inherent and awesome word of God. That’s being a launching pad.
SID:Why do you say a thought is the most significant and important thing we have?
CLARICE:Well, your thought life, it says, “whatsoever things are lovely, pure, truth, if they’d be virtuous, they’d be praised, think on these things.” So the thought life, you have to fill your brain with positive things, resist the negative. My mama used to say, “Honey, you can’t keep birds from flying over your head, but you can keep from nesting in your hair.” So you’ve got to understand those negative thoughts that just come out of nowhere, you’re thinking something that’s just crazy and then you need to say I resist that. And you fill your mind with positive thoughts because your thoughts are going to lead to your words, and your words are going to produce your action.
SID:Remember the story you told me about the oppressed woman walking towards you?
CLARICE:Oh, then that’s the declaration. See, I learned that from Kathryn Kuhlman. I was the oppressed woman walking toward her. And so this woman is coming and she’s obviously got serious problems. She weighed about 80 pounds and her hair was all gone and she was dressed poorly. She was in a mess. She was coming down the aisle and I said, “You come to me.” And she backed off and I said, “No, you come to me now. You come to me now.” And you have to encourage people. And she starts towards me. I said, “You are the righteousness of Christ. When I look at you, all I see is Jesus. You are the healed. You are the delivered. You are the prosperous. You are the beloved. You’re the apple of God’s eye.” And she kept walking toward me and walking toward me. And by the time she… Then I ran toward her, I grabbed her and put her in my arms and I said, “Say with me, I believe Jesus is the Son of God.” And she says, “I believe Jesus is the son of God.”See, sometimes your faith has to be infused into another person so that they can have the strength to walk in this. We impart. When Paul said, “Oh I long to be with you that I can impart to you a spiritual blessing that will equip you to the end.” And this woman was instantly changed. She got born again, baptized in the Holy Ghost and got free of drugs.
SID:I tell you what, you look at Clarice and you say, “She doesn’t… I can’t even relate to her. She doesn’t know what it’s like to have nothing, to be hopeless and in poverty.” You’re wrong.She’s been there. She pulled herself out and she says, “You can do it too.” Be right back.
