Is your heart, your mind failing you for fear? 00:00:01.36\00:00:05.33 I am Charles Mills, this is Dr. James Marcum here, 00:00:05.37\00:00:08.64 we're talking about disease and the fighting of that disease 00:00:08.67\00:00:11.74 and we have a Biblical prescription that I think is 00:00:11.77\00:00:15.51 the most powerful prescription you are ever going to find 00:00:15.54\00:00:17.71 anywhere. More powerful than any modern medicine can give you, 00:00:17.75\00:00:21.78 and here it is. 00:00:21.82\00:00:23.15 We'll put it up on the screen: Philippians 4:6,7, 00:00:23.18\00:00:25.85 Philippians 4:6,7, listen to this and be amazed. 00:00:25.95\00:00:28.92 Every time I read that I just feel my blood pressure 00:00:53.88\00:00:57.49 going down, I feel that everything is going to be okay, 00:00:57.52\00:01:00.86 cause I'm not alone, there's someone here that is going to 00:01:00.89\00:01:03.96 help me through whatever I'm facing and this promise 00:01:03.99\00:01:07.73 is a wonderful prescription for peace and healing. 00:01:07.76\00:01:10.70 Dr. Marcum, I'm sure you've read this before, 00:01:10.73\00:01:12.63 what does that mean to you as a doctor? 00:01:12.67\00:01:14.40 It's more than a promise Charles, and I can tell people 00:01:14.44\00:01:18.37 that this is a way that I can help your chemistry 00:01:18.41\00:01:21.98 and help your situation more than a pill. 00:01:22.01\00:01:25.08 Because God doesn't want us to be anxious, He's given us a 00:01:25.11\00:01:27.92 prescription that will change our chemistry by being with Him, 00:01:27.95\00:01:31.39 by worshiping Him...Now we have the science to start 00:01:31.42\00:01:33.96 backing this up. We can prove it, we don't have all the 00:01:33.99\00:01:36.93 studies that I would like, I would like more studies 00:01:36.96\00:01:39.59 because I think this would be very convincing to the world... 00:01:39.63\00:01:41.50 You know, people like science, they like evidence, 00:01:41.53\00:01:44.37 faith, faith you know that's harder for some people than 00:01:44.40\00:01:48.17 evidence, but you give them hard core evidence 00:01:48.20\00:01:50.14 that this is going to do this, this, and this, 00:01:50.17\00:01:52.67 you know this is going to lower the risk of heart attack 00:01:52.71\00:01:54.18 if you do this. Well that will get their attention. 00:01:54.21\00:01:56.38 Yes. So that's, that's, I'm hoping more people 00:01:56.41\00:01:59.11 will continue to do research on this, but be anxious about 00:01:59.15\00:02:02.55 nothing. When we have prayer depend on God, 00:02:02.58\00:02:05.09 look to the scriptures, and that's what I've tried to do. 00:02:05.12\00:02:07.69 You know there's lots of medical programs out there Charles 00:02:07.72\00:02:10.29 that will sell your product, you know, here's an herb, 00:02:10.33\00:02:13.90 here's a supplement. There's a lot of procedures out there, 00:02:13.93\00:02:16.06 a lot of people are doing that, but on this program, 00:02:16.10\00:02:18.53 there's no special gimmick, there's no herb, 00:02:18.57\00:02:21.54 there's no that. No one here is making any money 00:02:21.57\00:02:23.94 for what they are doing. 00:02:23.97\00:02:25.31 We're here just because we want to try to present something 00:02:25.34\00:02:28.08 for you to think about, and for you to look at the evidence 00:02:28.11\00:02:30.95 and see if the evidence makes sense to you, 00:02:30.98\00:02:33.18 and more than anything, try some of these things 00:02:33.21\00:02:35.28 that we've been talking about in your life. 00:02:35.32\00:02:37.02 Try to worship God and see how you feel after a period 00:02:37.05\00:02:40.46 of time, let Him take control and see how you do. 00:02:40.49\00:02:43.26 Eat healthier diets, do these things and see how you feel. 00:02:43.29\00:02:46.23 It's amazing Charles, we do talk the modern medicine 00:02:46.26\00:02:50.33 part of it and do you know what this fellow is here? 00:02:50.37\00:02:52.83 It looks interesting. This is what we call an otoscope, ok, 00:02:52.87\00:02:59.37 and oto meaning ears, and we look at people's ears 00:02:59.41\00:03:02.58 and we pull back their ears and we go deep inside 00:03:02.61\00:03:05.15 and we look and see if they might have an infection, 00:03:05.18\00:03:07.98 we look at the tympanic membranes, 00:03:08.05\00:03:10.09 it does all sorts of neat things. 00:03:10.12\00:03:11.82 It's designed to look inside of you to see what is going on. 00:03:11.85\00:03:15.19 This is another instrument that we use to look in the eyes, 00:03:15.22\00:03:19.29 I can look through the center part of your eyes and I can see 00:03:19.33\00:03:22.40 where the optic nerve is, I can see the blood vessels, 00:03:22.43\00:03:24.97 I can actually see physically part of your brain where the 00:03:25.00\00:03:28.90 optic nerve comes out with this. I can see inside of you. 00:03:28.94\00:03:32.47 You know unfortunately in the world we live in 00:03:32.51\00:03:35.68 so many people are busy now, they don't have the time to 00:03:35.71\00:03:40.05 look inside themselves to see who they really are. 00:03:40.08\00:03:43.22 Interesting. Because we get so busy and so worried about 00:03:43.25\00:03:46.45 just being alive and existing that we don't have a chance 00:03:46.49\00:03:49.82 to look and see who we really are. 00:03:49.86\00:03:51.76 We don't have the time to see, look inside and see, 00:03:51.79\00:03:55.40 well, what does God want me to be? 00:03:55.43\00:03:57.37 Where does He want me to go? 00:03:57.40\00:03:58.90 Because we are busy, sometimes doing good things, 00:03:58.93\00:04:01.50 raising families, going to churches, working our jobs, 00:04:01.54\00:04:04.57 doing things. But I think our world is so busy, 00:04:04.61\00:04:07.48 that all this business stresses us out and the antidote 00:04:07.51\00:04:10.85 to all the stress which triggers all these diseases 00:04:10.88\00:04:13.38 is figuring out to have relationships, have a rest, 00:04:13.42\00:04:16.45 you know a rest, slow down a little bit, how to break our 00:04:16.48\00:04:20.06 routines, how to communicate with the one that can fix this, 00:04:20.09\00:04:23.53 to look inside ourselves and be honest. What do we see? 00:04:23.56\00:04:27.56 Do we see someone that's healthy that's getting better, 00:04:27.60\00:04:30.67 that's working towards healing? 00:04:30.70\00:04:32.30 Or do we just see someone who doesn't pay attention 00:04:32.33\00:04:34.74 to how their life is because we are caught up in this big 00:04:34.77\00:04:37.17 wave, this wave of the culture, this is how I'm supposed to 00:04:37.21\00:04:40.68 feel, this is how I'm supposed to act, and we don't even know 00:04:40.71\00:04:42.98 who we are inside. We're getting sicker and sicker, 00:04:43.01\00:04:45.05 and sicker as we do that. Yeah, as I look at my patients 00:04:45.08\00:04:48.22 come in and I realize a lot of people live their whole lives 00:04:48.25\00:04:50.55 and never know who they are. 00:04:50.59\00:04:52.55 Never know what they want to do with their life, 00:04:52.59\00:04:54.72 what they want to accomplish, even if it's just little things, 00:04:54.76\00:04:57.76 we all can find some way to be used by God. 00:04:57.79\00:05:00.50 When did you do that Dr. James Marcum? 00:05:00.53\00:05:02.80 When did you look inside and say, I want to be someone 00:05:02.83\00:05:06.94 different than I am? And how did that journey bring you 00:05:06.97\00:05:10.34 to this moment where you are sitting in the beautiful studio 00:05:10.37\00:05:12.84 here at 3ABN talking to these people around the world, 00:05:12.87\00:05:16.58 what was that journey like? 00:05:16.61\00:05:18.08 Well, it's sort of been over time, it hasn't happened 00:05:18.11\00:05:21.42 all at once, it's been slow and I would like to think I'm 00:05:21.45\00:05:23.95 still on the journey, still learning, still sharing... 00:05:23.99\00:05:27.46 Um, like I say, you don't hear a lot of physicians 00:05:27.49\00:05:30.53 out there that combine modern medicine, that combine lifestyle 00:05:30.56\00:05:34.63 and that combine mind and relationship, 00:05:34.66\00:05:36.77 especially a relationship with God as part of a treatment 00:05:36.80\00:05:38.97 plan. But I think this moderate approach is the way... 00:05:39.00\00:05:42.67 we look at Christ like, and He loved them, He didn't judge 00:05:42.70\00:05:46.04 them. I'm starting to do the research, what happens when we 00:05:46.07\00:05:49.04 judge people, what's it do to us. 00:05:49.08\00:05:50.45 Well, God says not to do that, it damages us. 00:05:50.48\00:05:52.41 What's it do to them? Yeah. 00:05:52.45\00:05:53.78 What's it do when we are not selfish? 00:05:53.82\00:05:55.15 Well, I think what happened to me is, I was in a bone marrow 00:05:55.18\00:05:58.75 transplant unit at the Medical Center of Delaware, 00:05:58.79\00:06:01.12 where I was doing my Internal Medicine Training 00:06:01.16\00:06:04.03 and I took care of a young Fire Fighter and he had a disease, 00:06:04.06\00:06:07.53 it's a bone disease called multiple myeloma 00:06:07.56\00:06:10.13 and everything that modern medicine could do, 00:06:10.17\00:06:13.57 the bone marrow transplants, the chemo... 00:06:13.60\00:06:17.14 the chemo wiped out his immune system, he got so sick 00:06:17.17\00:06:21.34 we had to give him antibiotics, everything we did to try to... 00:06:21.38\00:06:25.55 The theory is you wipe out all the bad cells and then 00:06:25.58\00:06:28.72 you give them a bone marrow transplant so they start making 00:06:28.75\00:06:30.99 good cells...Well everything we did with modern medicine... 00:06:31.02\00:06:34.56 You know, his family would come in every day, 00:06:34.59\00:06:36.73 I could see him lose weight, get weaker and weaker 00:06:36.76\00:06:39.76 every day...And then everyone says this will work, 00:06:39.79\00:06:43.87 have another transfusion, this is going to work... 00:06:43.90\00:06:46.57 You are on three medicines to keep infections out of the 00:06:46.60\00:06:49.04 body and after a prolonged period of time, he passed away, 00:06:49.07\00:06:52.54 and I felt so empty. You know, his family, I didn't really... 00:06:52.57\00:06:57.05 as one of his doctors, one of his many doctors, 00:06:57.08\00:06:59.98 I was low on the totem pole... I didn't give him anything 00:07:00.02\00:07:03.79 that would bring him to healing and I said there has got to be 00:07:03.82\00:07:08.46 something more to medicine than this, 00:07:08.49\00:07:11.43 and just that realization began my search. 00:07:11.46\00:07:14.93 And I started, I just prayed, God show me where we should go 00:07:14.96\00:07:19.90 with this? What should I learn and I started looking in the 00:07:19.93\00:07:22.24 scriptures and slowly but surely I realized I was taught 00:07:22.27\00:07:25.41 medicine, but medicine wasn't healing and just because 00:07:25.44\00:07:29.18 I've taught these things doesn't mean it's right 00:07:29.21\00:07:31.45 and some day we will look back and see some of the stuff 00:07:31.48\00:07:34.08 we are doing, is not right. 00:07:34.12\00:07:35.55 I realize that some people do things, you know, they do things 00:07:35.58\00:07:39.15 for money. The system is broken. 00:07:39.19\00:07:41.26 Not maybe individuals, but the system is not doing what 00:07:41.29\00:07:44.03 it should be doing. 00:07:44.06\00:07:45.39 And this journey led me to the scriptures, 00:07:45.43\00:07:47.23 and finding things in the scriptures and the science 00:07:47.26\00:07:49.66 to back it up. Right. 00:07:49.70\00:07:51.10 The science to back it up, because I think when people 00:07:51.13\00:07:53.13 look at evidence based medicine... 00:07:53.17\00:07:54.80 See, I consider the things that God gave us as medicine healing. 00:07:54.84\00:07:58.57 Yes. The things that change our chemistry, 00:07:58.61\00:08:00.31 just like anything we put in our body, changes our chemistry. 00:08:00.34\00:08:03.35 And everyone says, oh the food is so important. 00:08:03.38\00:08:06.08 Yes, the food is important, don't get me wrong, 00:08:06.11\00:08:08.08 but the thoughts are important too. Yes. 00:08:08.12\00:08:10.12 And if you are going to be angry about your food choices 00:08:10.15\00:08:12.15 maybe that angry is not the right thing and maybe 00:08:12.19\00:08:14.96 you need to sort of re-evaluate. 00:08:14.99\00:08:16.32 Well, how can I not be angry? 00:08:16.36\00:08:17.69 Why am I feeling this way? 00:08:17.73\00:08:19.06 Find out the reason why and it might be a journey 00:08:19.09\00:08:22.13 that you and God go on and you take others with you. 00:08:22.16\00:08:24.50 But I started going on that journey and as I tried to make 00:08:24.53\00:08:27.64 changes one at a time, I saw the positive effects, 00:08:27.67\00:08:30.47 I started bringing these in to my patients lives 00:08:30.51\00:08:33.11 and I said why don't you try this for two weeks and 00:08:33.14\00:08:35.01 see how you do? Well all of a sudden, 00:08:35.04\00:08:36.81 they started coming off medicines, they became happier, 00:08:36.85\00:08:39.45 they started reversing disease. 00:08:39.48\00:08:41.28 One of the questions I ask when the short time... 00:08:41.32\00:08:43.75 I asked, are you eating pretty healthy? 00:08:43.79\00:08:46.19 They said yes, I said well, what do you eat? 00:08:46.22\00:08:47.56 So I could have that discussion, and I said well try to do this 00:08:47.59\00:08:51.46 first. I lead them one step at a time and if they are eating 00:08:51.49\00:08:54.00 terrible, we have to go slower. 00:08:54.03\00:08:55.50 And I said what are you doing, why are you happy? 00:08:55.53\00:08:58.37 And if you are out there and you can't answer that question, 00:08:58.40\00:09:01.34 what am I doing to be happy? You might have a problem. 00:09:01.37\00:09:04.11 Then if they can't say something, then I start working 00:09:04.14\00:09:06.41 on the mind. Well, what can we do? 00:09:06.44\00:09:08.31 What do you really enjoy doing? 00:09:08.34\00:09:09.78 And that leads me into resting you know, and resting in God. 00:09:09.81\00:09:13.28 Resting in that relationship. Maybe you are too busy... 00:09:13.31\00:09:15.95 and I can lead them to other Biblical ways of healing 00:09:15.98\00:09:19.15 and sometimes they don't even know it. 00:09:19.19\00:09:20.99 Um hum. You know, they might not be spiritual and I said, 00:09:21.02\00:09:23.02 well, you know, do you have a connection with God? 00:09:23.06\00:09:25.99 And some people are going to church and some people are not 00:09:26.03\00:09:28.16 going to church and if they are not I say, well you know, 00:09:28.20\00:09:30.50 you know God reaches you in many different ways if you 00:09:30.53\00:09:33.34 look out for Him. And here's some things you can do if 00:09:33.37\00:09:35.54 you are interested in this cause I believe there is proof, 00:09:35.57\00:09:38.07 scientific proof that there is a God, and there is healing. 00:09:38.11\00:09:41.64 And here's what he says. And I said why don't you just 00:09:41.68\00:09:44.08 try this for a week and see how you feel? 00:09:44.11\00:09:46.48 And I've never had anyone who tries these things and 00:09:46.51\00:09:49.68 don't feel a little bit better. Ahhh! 00:09:49.72\00:09:51.52 And as I've seen them change, that has empowered me 00:09:51.55\00:09:54.09 to continue to look for another thing that we can offer 00:09:54.12\00:09:56.89 and to go and take the time to spread this news via 00:09:56.93\00:09:59.79 the television, via the radio, the ministry answers questions. 00:09:59.83\00:10:03.63 But I realize the system doesn't necessarily want this to happen, 00:10:03.67\00:10:07.00 It's not a money maker. You know, it's not a money maker. 00:10:07.04\00:10:11.44 But I think that as God blesses, we are all going to be in this 00:10:11.47\00:10:14.98 together. We are going to see that understanding people, 00:10:15.01\00:10:17.58 meeting their needs, loving and not judging them, 00:10:17.61\00:10:19.71 helping them in the healing process. 00:10:19.75\00:10:21.32 This is the way we can bring people to the gospel, 00:10:21.35\00:10:24.35 to evangelism. To realizing that God came down here 00:10:24.39\00:10:27.32 and He says, if you believe in me...Believe, 00:10:27.36\00:10:30.23 worship the true God. These are the things 00:10:30.26\00:10:32.49 the Holy Spirit will come in and change people's lives. 00:10:32.53\00:10:35.20 And even if we can't have healing on earth 00:10:35.23\00:10:37.13 we can have healing in heaven. 00:10:37.17\00:10:39.07 So you are saying that health should be at the center of 00:10:39.10\00:10:41.24 evangelism. Well, I think that's the way we should be thinking. 00:10:41.27\00:10:44.81 We should be thinking to serve someone, to love someone 00:10:44.84\00:10:47.31 first. Develop that relationship and let the Holy Spirit 00:10:47.34\00:10:50.51 through that relationship take them the next step 00:10:50.55\00:10:52.88 and we can help them on those steps. 00:10:52.91\00:10:54.55 But I think this is very... everyone that is watching this 00:10:54.58\00:10:57.29 program can share with their friends and help them smile 00:10:57.32\00:11:00.32 and serve them. And when they are serving them through that 00:11:00.36\00:11:02.82 relationship, they can introduce even a greater relationship 00:11:02.86\00:11:05.79 that can add in healing and I think the evidence speaks 00:11:05.83\00:11:08.60 for itself Charles. If we are doing that, 00:11:08.63\00:11:10.83 if we are making our friends smile, if we are bringing hope 00:11:10.87\00:11:15.47 for them, we are bringing healing Dr. Marcum. Yes! 00:11:15.50\00:11:18.64 We are being like little medical missionaries to our neighbors, 00:11:18.67\00:11:22.61 to our family members, to our co-workers... 00:11:22.64\00:11:24.45 When we bring these principles that we talk about on this 00:11:24.48\00:11:27.42 program week after week, when we bring that to the world 00:11:27.45\00:11:29.58 we are taking part in a healing ministry. 00:11:29.62\00:11:33.59 You may not be a part of heartwisemininstries.org 00:11:33.62\00:11:36.86 but you can be a part of you.ministries.org 00:11:36.89\00:11:39.89 and your family's ministry .org. What a wonderful feeling 00:11:39.93\00:11:43.10 that is to know that you are part of healing people's lives. 00:11:43.13\00:11:46.23 Yeah. And when you serve some- one else, you are serving God. 00:11:46.27\00:11:48.97 You're serving God. And I went to a play not long ago with my 00:11:49.00\00:11:52.04 daughter and one of the lines was, you know, when you serve 00:11:52.07\00:11:55.54 someone else, you see that the face of God. 00:11:55.58\00:11:57.18 So when you serve someone else, you are really serving 00:11:57.21\00:11:59.71 your Creator. 00:11:59.75\00:12:01.08 Well, we are going to take a brake and when we come back 00:12:01.12\00:12:03.55 let's talk to that creator. What a privilege we have 00:12:03.59\00:12:06.39 to speak to the God who created us and knows what is best for us 00:12:06.42\00:12:10.89 and wants to share with us what we need to do 00:12:10.93\00:12:13.90 to have health and healing from now on until He comes 00:12:13.93\00:12:17.27 so stay right where you are. 00:12:17.30\00:12:18.63 If you are discouraged, do you feel like there is no hope? 00:12:24.07\00:12:27.74 Do you feel like there is no love in your life? 00:12:27.78\00:12:30.48 I want to tell you, that's not the way it needs to be. 00:12:30.51\00:12:33.58 There is hope, there is healing, there's real chemical changes 00:12:33.62\00:12:38.35 that comes in this relationship that we are promised. 00:12:38.39\00:12:40.62 We can start that this very moment. Let's pray together. 00:12:40.66\00:12:43.56 Father God, we want to enter into a relationship with you 00:12:43.59\00:12:48.60 and we want you to work in our lives. 00:12:48.63\00:12:51.33 Take over our thoughts and our actions 00:12:51.37\00:12:53.54 and bring us to healing, bring us to hope, 00:12:53.57\00:12:55.64 bring us to love. We trust that you will do this 00:12:55.67\00:12:58.17 in our lives Father, and we want to thank you ahead of 00:12:58.21\00:13:01.04 time for the results that we will see is our humble prayer. 00:13:01.08\00:13:04.58 Amen! 00:13:04.61\00:13:05.95 I want to thank you for spending time on 00:13:05.98\00:13:09.05 The Ultimate Prescription today, if you want to learn 00:13:09.08\00:13:11.09 more, go to our website if you have a question wheret we can 00:13:11.12\00:13:13.92 serve you.
