Huh? Why would Satan heal people...
Matthew 12
22 Then one was brought to Him who was demon-possessed, blind and mute; and He healed him, so that the blind and mute man both spoke and saw.
23 And all the multitudes were amazed and said, “Could this be the Son of David?”
24 Now when the Pharisees heard it they said, “This fellow does not cast out demons except by Beelzebub,the ruler of the demons.”
25 But Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them: “Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand.
26 If Satan casts out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?
27 And if I cast out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your sons cast them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.
28 But if I cast out demons by the Spirit of God, surely the kingdom of God has come upon you.
29 Or how can one enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man? And then he will plunder his house.
30 He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.

Phoenix,
I've opted not to contribute to any more negative comments regarding ministries that may or may not be heretical in their teachings/practices. I made a comment in agreement with you regarding the Osteen/King interview, after believing I'd heard what constituted heresy. I have since repented, not because Joel's ministry is legitimate, but because I was making assumptions based on a moment in time. I should not have allowed one ' YouTube' clip to convince me that this man's ministry was a farce.
If I see my brother taken in a sin, I should be more apt to pray for him, as opposed to condemning him. After forty-six years of living, I have never made a judgment that did not return to me. The measure that was dealt was the measure I received. You may not be able to receive these words, but I caution you against future judgments and the labeling of ministers,( heretical and genuine alike). You may not be prepared for the measure that will return to you.

Friend I know what you are getting at but what bently did was false healings. The people he "healed" are dead. He married the girl he was having an affair with. and he takes peoples eyes off Christ and focuses them on angels. I do my research before i make assumptions but before that assumption I compare what bently says to the Word of God. I do not judge them by my standards but by God's standard
I've heard a number of people testify that their own 'gods' healed them and so I believe that is probably satan. A good example is a catholic who claims the Virgin Mary healed them.
I agree Phoenix Bentley is not who he made out to be, he's the leader of this revival but meanwhile he's having an affair , what a hypocrite he was/is, but I do believe genuine healings may have occurred in the crowd but probably not because of Todd.

Hello Todd's affair was a smack in the face to christians But HELLLLOOOO David married the woman he was having an affair with also, even had her husband put to death. Noah got drunk after the ark but it was the son that revealed that sin that got cursed, the two that covered it up was blessed. can we not learn from others people's mistakes. if ye see a brother in sin go to that brother if he turns from that sin, ye have gain a brother, not if a brother sin, judge him to hell and blast it to all the world, so when you was studying the standards of God did you not come across; judge not lest ye be judged.

You have really twisted what happened here. The sin of Ham was not about his dad being drunk and saying something about it. If you will follow the descendants of Ham you will find the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah.
The text says that he did something TO Noah. At minimum he made light of his fathers nakedness. It was the nakedness that the other two covered.
