About Me
My name is Neal Leazer. I am happily married. I make a living as an IT professional at a software company.
I believe in Jesus, I believe the Bible is the word of God, and I believe that God wants to show His love and His power TO the world THROUGH His children.
I have seen God do so many amazing things, and I am so thankful that He allows me to participate and minister on His behalf. I have seen many people get physically healed (including my own wife getting healed out of a wheelchair). I have seen many set free from demonic oppression. I have been privileged to lead many people to be baptized with the Holy Spirit.
Currently, I teach about the love and power of God, both inside and outside of traditional church settings. My desire is to help people to know and enjoy the benefits of being children of a supernatural God that loves them unconditionally.
I created this website as a means to provide some resources for people that want to learn about and enjoy the life in abundance that Jesus brings to us (John 10:10). I hope you find something here that deepens your relationship with the Lord and expands your view of His character and nature. If you would like to have me speak to your group, feel free to use the contact link on the main menu.
Be blessed

Neal, I visited Hope Chapel last Sunday and so appreciated your teaching on the Baptism of Holy
Spirit which is so needed to clear up so many misconceptions.
Wanted to say Thank You.
Cathy
Thank you Cathy! I was very thankful to have the opportunity to speak, and I appreciate you taking the time to send the encouraging words. Be blessed!
Neal, I have been enjoying your teachings on Wednesday nights. Today I just found your blog! I have been reading them and they reinforce what I have learned from the class. This is great! Thank you so much for the great work. I’ll keep praying that God will keep pouring out gift of teaching and revelation of Him to you so you can bless other people like me.
Thank you Wen! I appreciate your prayers, and thank you for the kind words. We love having you in our class!
Hello Neal,
Wonderful sessions! You have been talking about the timeline for God’s Revelations to the world through the old covenant and the new covenant. At one of the recent sessions, you mentioned that some of the New Testament scripture is about a person before they accept Jesus as Savior, and some New Testament scripture is about a person after they accept Jesus as Savior. In one of your future sessions, could you talk about this personal ‘before and after salvation time line’ like you did with the ‘old and new covenant time line’ ? The way you described the scripture made it sound like a good topic. Thanks!
Hi Danny! Yes, I do plan to go into more detail on the issue you are asking about either this week or next week, but here is a little more info to think about.
Jesus was born while the Old Covenant was still in effect. The New Covenant did not begin until after Jesus died and rose again. So there was a 33 year span where Jesus was alive, but the people were still under the Old Covenant. He knew the New Covenant was coming because he prophesied about it and talked about it quite often. But he also talked about the Old Covenant, and he would teach the Law in its full force sometimes. This was usually done to lead people to a place where they would realize that they needed a savior, in my opinion. Paul talks about this toward the end of Galatians 3.
Be blessed!
Neal
Love your teachings. Do you take personal calls or appts to talk?
Hi Peg. Thanks for your question. Due to my current schedule, I am not doing personal meetings right now. But I do monitor the comments on my website for each page, and I try to answer any questions that are posted on there. If you have questions on a specific article or recording, feel free to post it on the appropriate page and I will answer what I can as time allows.
NEAL MAN! Listening to you on Youtube right now. Looking good my friend.
Hey Neal, you seem to have a grasp on the Baptism in the Spirit and the Grace revelation. You might be interested in reading my blog http://www.AllthetimeGod.com I teach on the Grace of God, the New Covenant and healing and the Holy Ghost.
Thanks John. I will check it out.
Hello Neal,
I have been recently diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I really want to life a life free of pain and fatigue.
I reside a Mumbai, India. Is there a way I can receive blessings or can u please guide me to overcome this difficult phase. I was thrilled after reading your wife’s recovery. God bless her always.
Expecting a reply from you. My email id is reshma.kataria@ yahoo.co.in
Hi Mahek. I am sorry to hear about the diagnosis. I encourage you to go through my materials on the “Heal The Sick” portion of my website. And I am praying this prayer for you right now. “Dear heavenly Father, I thank you that it is your will to heal us from every sickness and every disease (Psalm 103:3). Lord Jesus, I thank you that you paid for our healing (Isa 53:5), and that you gave us authority to minister healing on your behalf (Luke 9:1-2). Holy Spirit, I thank you that you work through us to bring your healing power (1 Cor 12:8-10). In the name of Jesus, I command all sickness to leave Mahek Jeswani, and never return. All Fibromyalgia, go now. I speak life and health and complete recovery for Mahek in the name of Jesus. Amen!”
I agree in prayer. Thank you Jesus. Amen.
Hi Neal: My husband and I (living in Houston) have been listening to several of your podcasts and are about halfway through your Healing School Series. (As a teacher myself, I love how you stop to take questions and engage everyone in thoughtful, humble discussion.) My husband was miraculously healed of lung cancer by God about 6 years ago and so the words and principles of your teaching are resonating powerfully with us. Through that, he has been nudged by God into a touch and healing prayer for others even though he is VERY reserved. This is how I know it’s from God! My question is actually about casting out demons. We have been serving for many years in an inner healing ministry called Transformation Prayer (earlier Theophostic prayer). Occasionally demons manifest in these sessions and our training is to coach the person that they have the power to evict the demon themselves and the choice to do that is theirs anytime they recognize demonic influence. Unfortunately, relatively few of the millions of demonized people agree to a TPM session, so most are going about in demonic bondage without recognizing/understanding it. Because of our experience and your teaching, I can recognize many around me “under the influence” and my heart cry is to help free them from this terrible bondage. But talking about demons and even addressing the demon operating inside someone can be scary, weird, and off-putting. I’ve had a hard enough time encouraging people to have a TPM session where they just feel emotions and listen to the Holy Spirit telling them truth! What do you feel is most effective, or most scriptural when it comes to dealing with demons in this very technical and unbelieving society? Casting out demons on the spot, or helping/educating the person themselves on how THEY can resist the devil?
Hi Sue. Thank you very much for your kind words. And I celebrate your husband’s healing from lung cancer! Praise Jesus!
For your question, you asked what is the most scriptural and most effective way of dealing with demons in our rationalistic/materialistic culture. I believe the scriptural way is to meet the person where they are at, and deal with the issue to the degree that the person is willing to engage, as the Holy Spirit leads you.
If Holy Spirit is giving me specific instructions for the situation, then I do what He is telling me to the best of my ability to listen and follow. If He is not giving me specific instructions for the situation, then I use Jesus as my example and model. Jesus dealt with demons by using authority, giving orders to demon(s) and commanding them to leave the person. He used language that was appropriate for the setting He was in. In Luke 4:35, He gave a forceful and direct order to the demon. In Luke 13:12 He said “woman you are free from your infirmity” and placed His hands on her…and she was freed from a spirit of infirmity.
I also take time to explain to the person that if they are a Christian, then they have the same authority that I do…but they have to be willing to use it themselves in case the problems try to come back(Matthew 12:43-45). Sometimes I do this while I am ministering to them to help them have confidence that they can do it themselves. Sometimes, that is not the right approach and I explain their authority to them after they have been freed.
If I am not sure of the person’s openness or awareness of demonic influence, I may say something like “Do you mind if I treat this issue as if it were spiritual?” They usually say yes. Then I pray something like “Any spirit or spiritual influence that is not from God, I order you to leave him/her alone!” or something along those lines. When I am explaining it to someone that is “new” I usually say that “demons act like bullies…they like to pick on people…this doesn’t mean you have done something wrong…it just means that you are getting picked on, and we are going to stand up to the bully.” That is my way of meeting them where they are, explaining what is going on in a way that they can receive.
I hope that helps!
Thank you so much for that very timely and helpful reply, Neal. Your answer about turning 100% to the Spirit for guidance rings very true. Isn’t it great that God created so much uniqueness and diversity in people that we would HAVE to do this?! The only 100% fool-proof “formula” is turning to and seeking Him. But your examples just bear that out. We will continue following your posts and praying for your ministry.
Oh Sue, my heart cries out the same as you. God sent me a dream middle of 2017 telling me cancer is spiritual meaning given by demons and He gave me Luke 11:24-26. That morning, the dream was so clear and that day I started on this spiritual journey seeking truth from the Creator Himself. I am so amazed how much I have missed out in the spiritual realm and so thankful for the spiritual things that have been revealed to me. I want to live my life the way Jesus wants us to and I am still on this journey. God bless you.
Neal, pardon me but can I ask you since you are into the healing and deliverance ministry, why don’t you believe God for supernatural healing of your eyes? I notice you wear glasses. If God can do impossible things, then how about healing your eyes? It should not be a big issue for Him. Hope you don’t mind me asking. I remember Smith Wigglesworth words about healing and deliverance and he mentioned about ministers who wear glasses. He felt that it does not tally up. Please forgive me and don’t get offended. :P
I appreciate your concern, and I am not offended. But I do feel that I should let you know that are making some assumptions about me that are not true. You are assuming that I have not been actively going after healing for my eyes. That is a false assumption. I talk about this many times in my audio and video teachings on healing. I am very open about it.
I know from personal experience that God heals vision problems because I have prayed for people and watched their eyes recover. I have seen it firsthand. And I 100% believe that it is God’s will to heal my eyes. I do not know why my healing has not manifested yet. I have my own theories, but this is not the place for that. The bottom line is, yes, I believe that it is God’s will for me to have 20/20 vision. But there is something going on that I do not know the answer to yet.
As far as Smith Wigglesworth goes, if you read the biography written by his son-in-law, you will see that he struggled with terrible health issues even in the middle of preaching and ministering healing. The temptation is to take the position that you cannot minister healing unless you totally healed yourself. But that is a wrong position, and it sets you up as a target for the enemy. I wrote an article about that titled “The First Healing in the Bible.” I hope that helps.
Thanks Neal, I really appreciate your reply. Thank you for being honest and also not getting offended. Because these are actually deep questions which many Christians do not want to face up to. Personally, I am also waiting for the manifestation of my 20/20 vision and that is probably why I take notice of people’s vision a lot. I have 20/30 – shortsightedness and astigmatism. I refused to wear glasses when my vision worsened last year due to dry eyes. And then I really had no choice but to wear them for a short period of time. But I was very stubborn. I worked on using natural ways (Thank God for them!) to improve my eyes and managed to use a supplement to regain the lubrication for my eyes and got off glasses. But that is still not supernatural healing which I long for. My eyes are still not 20/20 yet.
I am sorry I did not mean to assume that you are not working on your supernatural healing for your eye sight. I think many ministers/Christians who are into healing and deliverance do not really care about wearing glasses. I mean they are actually ok wearing glasses! To me, I feel that if I cannot trust God for small miracles to my eyes, then how can I trust God for big miracles such as cancer? That’s my own conviction and I would feel like a hypocrite. But through this ‘imperfection’, God has used it to teach me many lessons. I think if not for my vision, I might not have even found your website. Problems make or break us and for me, the vision made me seek all the more for answers and breakthroughs.
I feel that I still wrestle with unbelief. I believe I do have mustard seed faith. I am fasting regularly to overcome my unbelief and anything that may hinder my journey with God.
What are you own theories, may I ask?
I noted that Smith suffered appendicitis to the point of death until a young minister cast out a devil from Smith and he recovered completely. I am not sure what other ailments he had. Thanks for highlighting to me. That is why I felt that Apostle Paul might really have been afflicted with a sickness because even Smith was. But my belief is that they overcome the evil one every time. The only thing that we will die for is being martyred for the gospel of Christ.
Hi Neal, I come in regularly to read up and check but I have not got any replies on my comments. Would love to discuss. Thanks.
I don’t believe Paul’s thorn was sickness. Nor do I believe that he was referring to personal sickness in his letter to the Galations. I have articles on both of those here on my site.
As far as my theories go…I normally keep those to myself unless I feel more confident about them. I would not want to present something publicly on the internet I was not confident in. At least not on this subject.
But the way my thinking goes, I begin eliminating things that contract God’s character or the scriptures. Since I fully believe the Bible teaches that God’s will is to heal, I know the problem is not with God’s will. The problem lies elsewhere.
Neal – you have touched on such an important topic – that of “waiting” for the healing we believe is 100% God’s will. I am convinced there is something not quite “there” on our side in this matter. Faith is a powerful but ephemeral thing. How much is a mustard seed? I know that other answered prayers and obedience, testimonies and pursuit of the Lord all help to build faith. The “failure” of the promises to materialize is not in God’s court, but ours, I think. But I would be very much interested in your theories and observations, teachings, etc., about this. Thank you again for earnest and committed love for the Lord in your ministry. I believe He’s using it powerfully for His glory!
I agree that the failure of promises materialising is in our courts not God’s. His Son has done everything on the cross. He said ‘It is finished’. But many many so called faithful serving Christians in the church (who think they know God) help God give excuses all the time! i do not profess to know God (He knows me more than i know Him) and certainly I do not know Him in totality yet. But i am refusing to let circumstances and life’s experiences determine how God is like. I need to stand on what the Bible says about Him. But the heart-wrenching struggle is, I am not there yet. I do not have the full revelation, and i am swimming up the stream while every brother and sister around me is swimming down the stream with regards to healing! That is why i looked online and worldwide. I can’t look into my life group nor church. I get shot down, at the same time witnessing Christians around me die of sicknesses prematurely and these same bros and sisters say ‘Oh it is not God’s will that they are healed! Oh let the will of God be done, whatever it is!!!’ I am just disturbed beyond description.
I ask myself : Why am i so harped on healing and deliverance? Is it because I am fearful? of sicknesses? of death? If that is the case, then my heart is not right. i have not fully surrendered to the Lord. Then i am seeing sickness as greater than God. So i must check my heart prayerfully, asking God to expose my heart to me. I must not love my own life even unto death. It is very easy to fall into this category as well. My constant cry to God is that He show me His ways and change my heart to trust Him completely.
Hi mum2oneds! I just read your response here and a few years ago I was in the same boat! I was so discouraged, especially by people around me who weren’t helping in me growing in faith for healing. I had to UNlearn so many things about this subject and honestly stop talking to people about it for a while. I had to spend time with God daily and let HIM show me. It started to become more and more clear, and I began receiving deliverance and healing through my relationship with HIM. For the first time (this year in 2021) I feel I know Jesus, even though I professed to be saved in 2003! I have in no way “arrived” but wow I have come so far.
I realized one of the first prayers I prayed when I was in my darkest place was “God put a new heart in me! Remove this heart of stone and give me a heart of flesh.” This comes from Ezekiel 36:26. I realized in 2016 the biggest issue I had was not knowing what LOVE really was, not knowing how to love myself or others. This is where it has to start. Knowing God IS love (not just loving). It’s WHO HE is. Over time He showed me who I am in Christ – this took a good long while for me as I had lived my whole life with a wrong image of myself. But slowly, over time I began to see truth, that Jesus is who he says he is, that he truly DID take my infirmities and sin on the cross.
Where are you in your walk? I’d love to pray for you! I feel like God highlighted your comment to me so I could pray you would see truth the way He’s shown me. :)
Thank you Sue. We are in complete agreement. I do not believe the problem is on God’s side. There are other factors including our own doubts, or spiritual warfare, or environmental issues we are not aware of, or lots of other things. But God is good, and I know he wants me to be whole and healthy. There are just areas where I am still growing in wisdom and experience.
Hi Neal,
I just read your article about Paul’s thorn and is Paul sick when he met a galatians. And I thank the Lord that I find your article. I was quite wondering about Pauls thorns, I read it and the Holy Spirit open my eyes to thorn is a messenger of satan. But I was quite not sure. And I read some article about Pauls’s thorn as other is sickness. So I talked to the Lord is it really sickness. But praise God that He led me to your article. God bless. Also I just wanted to ask how to make a website like this one ? Do i need to pay to have one website. What is your suggestion?. I just wanted make also to share all the words and teaching that I make base on what the Lord gave to me. I also subscribe to your email. Thank you in advance and God bless Neil
Thank you,
Wil
Hi Wil. Thank you for the kind words. I am always glad to hear that my articles have been helpful.
Regarding your question about a website… You can set it up yourself, and then learn more as you go. I would recommend going to https://wordpress.com/ and gettings started with a free website. If you find you enjoy it and want to go further with it, you can upgrade to something with more features later. But to get started, the free version will let you write articles and make them available for people to read.
Good luck to you, and be blessed!
Hi Neal, may I ask what denomination are you?
Hi Lisa. Thank you for your question.
Over the years, I have attended and/or ministered in churches from a variety denominations from Southern Baptist to Pentecostal to non-denominational, and so on. However, I do not see myself as being a part of any of them.
