got a great personality she’s just a fun
person to be with and so we’re gonna
have a great time yes you got anything
else or is that it I think that’s it for
now
all right so tonight I wanted to just go
through Psalms chapter 91 I know that
many of you probably are aware of this
but you know the Bible says faith comes
by hearing not by having heard and one
of the things that I do constantly is
just go back over all of the things that
God has taught me and I always get
something brand-new out of it matter of
fact I just read through Psalms 91 right
before we came out here in preparation
and I was sitting here thinking about
some things that I’ve never really seen
or if I’ve seen them I just hadn’t
latched onto it the way I should and I
just get something out of the word every
single time I read it so Psalms chapter
91 is a passage of Scripture that just
really lists some of the things that God
wants to do in your life and it is way
over and above what the average person
is believing for the average person for
some reason believes that God is
hesitant to bless us or to protect us or
to prosperous and stuff and so they feel
like you know what is the minimum that I
can ask out
I don’t want to bother God Psalms
chapter 91 will show you that God has a
awesome plan for you and I think that if
you just go through this with me tonight
that this is really going to impress you
about how God wants to move in your life
so what I’m going to do first is just
read through the entire Psalm
there’s only let’s see sixteen verses so
I’m going to read all of these verses so
that we can get the overview of it and
then go back and look at some things
specifically Psalms chapter 91 verse one
he that dwelleth in the secret place of
the Most High shall abide under the
shadow of the Almighty I will say of the
Lord he is my refuge in my fortress my
god in him will I trust surely he shall
deliver thee from the snare of the
Fowler and from the noisome pestilence
he shall cover thee with his feathers
and under his wings shalt thou trust his
truth shall be thy shield and buckler
thou shalt not be afraid for the terror
by night nor for the arrow that flies by
day nor for the pestilence pestilence
that walketh in darkness nor for the
destruction that wasteth at noonday a
Thousand shall fall at thy side and ten
thousand at thy right hand but it shall
not come nigh thee only with thine eyes
shalt thou behold and see the reward of
the wicked because that’s made the Lord
which is my refuge even the most high
thy habitation there shall no evil
befall thee neither shall any plague
come nigh thy dwelling for he shall give
his angels charge over thee to keep thee
in all thy ways they shall bear thee up
in their hands lest thou dash thy foot
against a stone
thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder
the young lion and the dragon shalt thou
trample under feet because he has set
his love upon me therefore will I
deliver him I will set him on high
because he hath known my name he shall
call upon me and I will answer him I
will be with him in trouble I will
deliver him and honor him with long life
will i satisfy him and show him my
salvation man that’s awesome
you know the promises
in this one passage of Scripture are so
phenomenal that most people just think
that this is unobtainable but this is
scripture and matter of fact Satan even
used these verses right here to tempt
Jesus was he when he was on the Mount of
Transfiguration and he quoted some of
these exact verses and Jesus
straightened him out on his
misapplication of them but this is just
powerful so let me go through and just
look at closer at this in verse one and
two it says he that dwelleth in the
secret place of the Most High and versus
wanting to are kind of the conditions
that all of these other promises are
based upon some people might read this
and think well I’m a believer and man I
love God and yet these things aren’t
coming in my life I’ve got pestilence
I’ve got fear I’ve had people come out
against me these things aren’t working
it’s not so but in verses 1 and 2 it
puts some qualifications on it it says
you have to dwell in the secret place of
the Most High and I could spend a large
amount of time trying to amplify and
explain exactly what this is talking
about but in a nutshell this is just
automates you’ve got to have an intimate
relationship with the Lord this isn’t
talking about a person who just cried
out to God in a period of distress and
said god help me and then you know God
saves you and you just go and do your
own thing and you’re living completely
contrary to God’s instructions this is
talking about a person who has a
relationship of the Lord dwelling in the
secret place of the Most High you abide
under the shadow of the Almighty so this
is talking about a person who is seeking
the Lord
a person who has yielded to the Lord and
cooperating with the Lord instead of
rebelling at the Lord and then this is
really important in verse 2 now pay
attention to this because this is where
a lot of people miss it it says I will
say of the Lord he is my refuge and my
fortress my god in him will I trust
here’s the way that I say this that all
of these promises of God are
voice-activated you have to speak forth
your faith and again I could spend I’ve
got probably five or six hours worth of
teaching on your
birds and how that God spoke the worlds
into existence that everything was
created by words it responds to words
and for these promises to work in your
life you not only have to be seeking the
Lord and have a relationship with the
Lord but you need to be speaking forth
your faith these promises are voice
activated and this is where so many
people miss it you know just take the
example of like sickness somebody will
go to the doctor the doctor says you’re
gonna die you’ve got six months to live
so somebody says how are you and instead
of you saying I’m healed in the name of
the Lord see and activating the promises
of God by your words you’ll sit there
and say oh oh I got six months to live
I’m dying and there’s no hope and you
start speaking for your unbelief
proverbs 18:21 death and life are in the
power of the tongue and they that love
it shall eat the fruit thereof so
there’s many people that have a
relationship with the Lord but they
don’t understand how important your
words are and so you’re hung by your
tongue this says that you have to say of
the Lord he is my refuge in my fortress
you have to speak forth your faith not
what your fears are not what people are
saying about you and things like that
now again I could spend an hour on that
but I want to go on through some of
these other promises that are here but
don’t skip over that this is voice
activated and then in verse 3 it says
surely he shall deliver thee from the
snare of the Fowler and from the noisome
pestilence the snare of the Fowler is
just talking about the enemy we’ve got
an enemy that’s trying to snare us Satan
cannot force anything upon you you know
everything here I could preach on this
for hours at a time I can’t believe I
bit off this whole thing in one little
30 minutes lesson but anyway Satan
cannot force you to do anything his only
power is deception he has to lay a trap
for you and if he can get you to buy
into his fear and start speaking forth
your doubt your fear your unbelief then
he has taken you in the snare of the
Fowler but if you are dwelling under the
shadow of the Almighty
if you are speaking forth your faith
instead of your fears well then you will
be delivered from the snare of the
Fowler and from the noisome pestilence
he shall cover thee with his feathers
and under his wings shalt out trust this
is a description of like a I’ve heard
people use a chicken but any type of
fowl that have wings well you know when
it rains the mother hen will spread her
wings out like this and the little
chickens will come get unto her and and
it’s a word picture and this is what God
does with all of his ability and all of
God’s power he has all of this available
but you know what he doesn’t necessarily
run after you and force this deliverance
on you the mother chicken will spread
her wings out like this and the little
chickens run there for help you have to
run to the Lord but God has protection
for you so that you heal under his wings
shalt you trust his truth shall be thy
shield and buckler and of course the
truth here is talking about the Word of
God John 17:17 thy Word is truth in
Ephesians chapter 6 you know the truth
is the sword of the Spirit and you use
that and the shield and buckler is
talkin a buckler was like a utility belt
that a soldier wore that he kept his
things on today we would talk about it’s
where you keep your ammunition your hand
grenade or something like that so the
Lord will be your defense and your
offensive weapon when you dwell under
his protection in verse 5 it says thou
shalt not be afraid for the terror by
night nor for the arrow that flies by
day nor for the pestilence let me firm a
page here nor for the pestilence that
walketh in darkness nor for the
destruction that wasteth at noonday now
I’m not saying any of these things to be
critical of anybody but I’m just trying
to point out that most Christians aren’t
even they aren’t even trying to
appropriate the promises right here most
Christians believe it is absolutely
normal to fall apart like a $2.00
suitcase when the doctor tells you
you’re gonna die when the banker says
that you’re in
financial needs when your mate is upset
with you and they just get into fear
that they’re gonna lose their family
they’re gonna lose their marriage
they’re gonna lose their health how are
we ever going to make it and they live
with this because most people don’t let
the Bible get in the way of what they
believe they just look around and sad to
say they look in the church they look at
some of the Christians around them and
they’re all sick and they’re all poor
and they’re all worried and they just
think that this is normal
I’m telling you on the authority of the
Word of God if you appropriate what this
is talking about you can reach a place
to where you are not afraid for the
terror by night nor for the arrow that
flies by day nor for the pestilence that
walks in darkness nor for the
destruction that wasteth at noonday in
other words this is saying that you
should not be afraid of people attacking
you and doing things like this you know
I’ve been in situations where honestly
it was a bad situation and my life could
have been in jeopardy but I just don’t
have any fear perfect love cast out fear
and you can literally get to where you
are dwelling under the shadow of the
Almighty and God is so much with you
it’ll go on to say right here that he
gives his angels charge over you and you
can get to where you are so secure in
the Lord’s protection that you aren’t
afraid now this doesn’t mean that you do
things stupid it doesn’t mean that you
expose yourself to things that you
shouldn’t be exposed to but at the same
time you aren’t afraid like here’s an
example that when 9/11 happened and we
had the terrorist attacks you know we
had a meeting scheduled in Charlotte
North Carolina and so I had to drive
there because they had canceled all the
plane flights and when we got to
Charlotte of course this was on
everybody’s mind they were wondering
about where is this leading to are we in
a war what what’s going to happen and
Christians were panicked they were
absolutely fearful and there was a lot
of people that I talked to says I’ll
never fly again and you know what if
they would have allowed us to fly I
would have got on a plane the next day
in a flaw because you know I didn’t
believe it was going to be too
total destruction the way some people
anticipate it but there are many
Christians that are just as afraid of
what’s happening here on the earth as
unbelievers and this shouldn’t be you
shouldn’t be afraid of things they have
pestilence come out you know they had
this thing called the bird flu or the
swine or the avian flu and a guy over in
England was predicting that one third of
the world’s population would die within
two years from avian flu and in the
first place I did not believe that but
even if that had been true which it
turned not to be I the last I heard
there was only 12 people maximum in
worldwide that died from this avian flu
but even if it had turned out to be the
way that he said it well that means
two-thirds of the people we’re gonna
live but see some people just hear a
report and they they say there’s a five
percent chance that this could give you
well it means there’s a 95% chance that
it won’t but some people are just
completely fear motivated they live
their life just trying to avoid anything
that could cause a problem and this is
contrary to what these verses are saying
if you have a relationship with the Lord
if you really dwell in a secret place
with him if you ever understand how much
God loves you and all of these promises
you can live a fear free life and that
is something that not very many people
tap into it says in the next verse a
Thousand shall fall at thy side and ten
thousand at thy right hand but it shall
not come nigh thee again this is saying
that even if there is a plague you might
have a thousand fall over here and ten
thousand over here but you’ll be the one
that comes through it that’s the way
that I feel you know if something
happened I guarantee you I remember this
guy Mike Warren kid you ever hear of
Mike Warren anyway he was a Christian
comedian and he went through Vietnam and
he told his story about getting hit with
a phosphorus grenade and he was on fire
and his body was burnt he’s he’s
disfigured because of it and they
actually picked him up and put him on a
stretcher to take him off and he was
so on fire you burn a hole through the
stretching do you remember him yes and
fell on the ground and finally they got
him in the helicopter and I think I may
get some of this wrong but the
helicopter got shot at and the
helicopter crashed and and people were
just dying all around him and he says my
god I’m gonna be the only person to live
through this and see that’s that
positive attitude that’s the way that I
feel it doesn’t you know I was over in
Ireland southern ireland and i was there
and i had a whole group of people with
me and we went to a meeting and and
anyway there was one guy in the car who
had the flu and every single person in
the car got it nobody could go but me
and i didn’t get it and i because i sit
here and I say these things that no
plague will come nigh my dwelling and I
say things like this and as a result
other people get sick all around me
people that I’m laying hands on I’ve had
people with AIDS spit in my face I’ve
had them call for me I’ve had them do
all kinds of thing I just I am NOT gonna
be sick I was talking to some good
friends of mine you know dairy and
carrying jolly and I was talking to them
one time and they were I forgot how we
got off on it but they said something do
you ever get sick and I said no I said I
don’t believe in getting sick and they
just were like you don’t believe in
getting sick and I said no and a lot of
it’s because of right here and I know
that many of you think you can’t live
that way pay attention to what this is
saying listen to this a Thousand shall
fall at thy side and ten thousand at thy
right hand but it talking about the
pestilence and the destruction shall not
come nigh thee only with thine eyes
shall you behold and see the reward of
the wicked in other words you aren’t
going to be a partaker with the wicked
as they suffer because you are following
God and look at this because thou has
made the Lord which is my refuge even
the most high thy habitation there shall
no evil befall thee neither shall any
plague come nigh thy dwelling man that
is awesome you know either this is the
Bible
this is scripture and it’s true and you
can believe it and get set free or you
ought to just cut it
your Bible I believe it I believe that
no plague comes my my dwelling and I
believe that I heard a testimony about
during the bubonic plague back in the
Middle Ages I forgot now the exact
figures but it was a huge percentage 25
to 50 percent of Europe died hundreds of
millions of people died and it was just
sweeping through and there was a
minister in a smaller village that the
plague was just coming through and he
stood on the boundary of his village and
stood on these verses and said no plague
will come nigh this village and there
wasn’t one single person in his village
that got the bubonic plague and then
there is John G Lake he was dealing with
some plague I’m not sure which one he
was up in where was it’s not Seattle
Spokane Spokane and he was up there and
he had helped so many people and so many
people had gotten healed that they
actually closed down one of the two
hospitals in his town and they gave him
a medical license not because he had
ever studied medicine but he was more
effective than the doctors so anyway
they had this plague going and they had
something like a gymnasium or something
where they were treating these people
that were dying of this plague and one
man just convulsed and foamed at the
mouth and had this foam all over his
mouth and then he died and this doctor
that was working with him says aren’t
you glad that we have a vaccination and
John Lake says who has a vaccination and
this doctor was just like you can’t be
working around these dead people without
a vaccination you’re going to die and
John Lake based his faith on this he
says no plague can come nigh my dwell
and he says no germ can touch my body
and live and this doctor of course was
operating just on you know medical
science and that was completely contrary
so he just rejected the whole thing he
says you’re a fool and so john link says
I’ll prove it to you and they took one
of those little glass slides that you
put under a microscope and he wiped some
of that foam off of this guy’s mouth
that had just died and he put it under
the microscope and you could see the
germs just moving all in it
and then he said watch this and he just
touched his finger to that slide and
instantly there all of the movement
stopped and it’s because no plague could
come now his dwelling and specifically
he says no germ can touch my body and
live and you know there’s people
watching this that you’re thinking
that’s not the way it is that’s because
you’ve been listening to the ten spies
Network and you have been listening to
the way that only a carnal person a
person that doesn’t believe in Psalm 91
believes and so because of it every time
the flu comes around you get the flu
every time you know something happens
the weather changes you get your joints
hurting and you have accepted this you
don’t have to live that way these are
some of the promises man I could just
stay on this a long time let me hurry up
through some of these things it says in
verse 11 for he shall give his angels
charge over thee to keep thee in all thy
ways they shall bear thee up in their
hands lest thou dash thy foot against a
stone man this is talking about
supernatural protection my life has been
saved I couldn’t even count but I can
guarantee it’s at least a dozen probably
over two dozen times I easily could have
been killed
and God has supernaturally protected me
I remember one time in Vietnam I went
out with the chaplain I was a chaplains
assistant we were supposed to travel in
a convoy and we didn’t do it the
chaplain nobody could tell the chaplain
what to do so he wanted to go out and
visit this pastor out in a village so I
got a jeep and I drove him out there and
we were sitting in the pastor’s house
having lunch and the chaplain just asked
the pastor says is there any Vietcong
around here and he said old man a lot he
says this is a sinner and the chaplain
says where and he pointed out the wind
and he says right across the street that
is a Vietcong stronghold and we looked
and there were guys everywhere with
ak-47s which was the russian-made deal
and the chaplain got so scared I mean he
nearly wet his pants and we just we got
out of there and he says drive and I
backed up and we drove and there were
four or five Vietcong standing there
with their ak-47 and they saw us because
we came they just moved to the side and
led us through and we didn’t have a
chaplains emblem or anything on the Jeep
it was a u.s. Jeep with a big ol
American symbol on it and the Vietcong
just stepped aside and let us go right
on through and we drove out we don’t
know what happened but you know what he
gave his angels charge over me and they
protected me I could tell you dozens of
times and somebody says well I don’t
know that that’s ever happened to me
probably it’s happened to you and you
don’t even know what God’s protected you
from but I’m telling you these things
are voice-activated you have to say that
God is your refuge you have to believe
for this it doesn’t just automatically
happen you can prove that by just taking
any Christian and people who truly are
born-again but they have a lot of really
bad things happen to them because they
don’t take their authority and mix it
with faith and speak these things forth
and I wish they had time to go through
the rest of it but we’ve got to take
some questions I tell you what I hope
that you read this and go back and let
the Lord speak to you I think that we
are leaving so many of the promises of
God that he’s given us on the table and
not taking advantage of it we need to
start living in the abundance of God has
for us
so Ruthie on chat she’s oh I think she’s
always I love it so she has great
questions so Ruthie on chat asked if you
meditate and stand on Psalms 91 can you
expect to not be physically persecuted
for example if someone tried to torture
or kill you for the faith can you expect
to be saved from possible death like how
Daniel was saved from the Lions No and
the reason is because you are redeemed
from sickness you’re redeemed from
disease you’re redeemed from a lot of
things but you are not redeemed from
persecution it says in 2nd Timothy
chapter 3 verse 12 that all those who
live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer
persecution and I believe that the
Apostle Paul in 2nd Corinthians chapter
12 he was actually trying to walk in
Psalms chapter 91 and
because he was persecuted everywhere and
the Lord told him that no he asked for
the Lord to take away this thorn in the
flesh and people have said that that
thorn in the flesh is sickness but
that’s not it the thorn in the flesh is
a term that’s used three times once in
judges twice in in our excuse me once in
Josh when twice in judges and it says if
you don’t drive out the unbelievers then
they will become thorns in your sides
and pricks in your flesh so it was a
scriptural terminology talking about
people persecuting you and coming
against you and he said remove this
thorn in the flesh and the Lord said no
he wouldn’t remove it because you aren’t
redeemed from persecution if you were
redeemed from persecution well then the
Apostle Paul would have never become the
Apostle Paul because he was persecuting
Stephen and if God would have just
struct all of your enemies well then we
wouldn’t had the Apostle Paul so God has
not redeemed us from persecution now
there are examples where he has
delivered some people from it but it’s
not something that you can always claim
in Daniel chapter three Shadrach Meshach
and Abednego said our God is able to
deliver us from your hand and he will
deliver us but even if he doesn’t
deliver us we aren’t going to bow down
so right there they showed that they
knew God could deliver them out of the
fiery furnace but they said whether he
does or not we aren’t going to serve you
so I don’t rue the– i don’t believe
that you can avoid persecution if you
can well then i’ve i’ve failed in that
area because if words didn’t kill you
I’d be dead I have a lot of people to
come out against me so I believe God
will protect you through it like the
fiery you know the Hebrew children that
went through the fiery furnace and God
protected them but no you aren’t
redeemed from persecution you’re
redeemed from sickness from disease from
poverty and on and on but not
persecution so peg on Facebook she kind
of had the same kind of question so it
was how did the disciples come to such
terrible ends with these promises the
causing aren’t redeemed from persecution
right and again the logic behind it is
if God just like say for instance killed
every person that was going to persecute
you he loves those people he doesn’t
want to destroy they
and I believe that that’s the reason
that we go through persecution because
you know when the Lord appeared unto
Paul or at that time he was Saul on the
road to Damascus he’s in Acts chapter 9
he said Saul Saul it’s hard for you to
kick against the pricks and some people
you know that’s a terminology that we
don’t use a lot but if you go back to
Acts chapter 7 when Stephen was
testifying and giving his defence before
the elders it says they were pricked in
their heart and it was talking about
they were convicted and when he says
Saul Saul it’s hard for you to kick
against the pricks Saul was convicted by
scene Stephen make this defense and then
ask God to forgive the very people that
were stoning him to death and so God
used the persecution of Stephen to
actually prick Saul’s heart and he got
born again and because I would wrote
half of the New Testament and all of
these good things came out of it God is
not going to take away persecution all
right so I’ve never heard that before
that’s amazing I always wondered the
same thing so you’re learning something
I am learning so Reepicheep on chap on
chat says how do you speak forth I think
when you were talking about the all
promises are voice-activated how do you
speak forth if you can’t talk I don’t
know why can’t you talk say somebody
that’s death they can’t quite speak or
maybe somebody that’s mute you know what
I’m not really thought about that the
first thing I do is get you healed so
you could talk amen but I’m sure that
the Lord would deal with you based on
what you can do not what you can’t do if
a person physically could not talk I’m
sure that you believing you could still
hack the bait and receive these things
praise God so did we stump you I had a
man one time who couldn’t talk he didn’t
have any vocal cords his father brought
him and he wanted me to pray for him so
I prayed for him and I tried to get him
to talk and he
in his mouth and nothing to come out he
couldn’t make a single saying he was
like 25-30 years old and I said do you
have the baptism of the Holy Spirit and
speak in tongues and he shook his head
no because he couldn’t talk so I laid
hands on him and prayed for him and he
just immediately started speaking in no
way and he didn’t have any vocal cord so
anyway if I was talking to you and if
you couldn’t talk I’d get you healed and
then tell you to start confessing the
word praise the Lord
okay so mckinsey on chat she has asked
I’ve heard teaching quote-unquote
abiding is obeying does that mean if we
aren’t obeying then God won’t protect us
well that’s a good question and it’s not
got a simple answer you don’t have to
obey a hundred percent in order to
receive if you did nobody would receive
anything because all of us have sinned
and come short of the glory of God and
technically speaking God does not move
in your life based on your performance
he moves in your life through your faith
in what Jesus did and so I agree I
believe that but at the same time if you
are willfully just disobeying God like
say for instance he told you to be
faithful to your mate and you don’t like
your mate and so you’re just shacking up
with somebody else and you’re living in
total disobedience it doesn’t mean that
God hates you it doesn’t mean that God’s
forsaken you but it does mean like
Romans chapter 6 verse 16 says know ye
not that to whom ye yield yourselves
servants to obey his servants you are to
whom ye obey whether of sin unto death
or of obedience unto righteousness so if
you go out and just are living a life of
willful rejection and disobedience to
the Lord you have just opened up your
arms and invited the devil to come in
still kill and destroy and if that so
well then you aren’t gonna see psalms
chapter 91 work so yes there does need
to be obedience but don’t come under
this thing that somehow another by
obeying the Lord you are somehow another
earning these blessings know you get
everything through Jesus but you can’t
saying Jesus I love you and I want all
of these things and at the same time
embracing the devil over here they’re in
opposite directions and so if you are
living a willful life of rebellion
towards God and loving the things of the
devil you are hurting yourself and
you’re just giving Satan inroad that’s
gonna hinder the blessings of God in
your life so that kind of leads into
Tami on Facebook her question says so
then why are there Christians that die
from sudden accidents it’s kind of the
same lie well there’s multiple things
involved I I believe that if you were
walking in Psalms 91 God would protect
you of accidents and it’s happened to me
I’ve actually had God I was getting on a
plane one time the Lord told me not to
get on and I didn’t get on and every
person on the plane died I’ve had other
stories like that there’s a man Steve
green who was a singer and I mean super
popular wrote a bunch of really strong
Christian songs and stuff and he and I
forget how many of his kids but a number
of his kids were on a plane and his wife
melody told him that she had had a dream
don’t get on this plane it’s it’s you’re
gonna be hurt and she warned him the
pilot told him not to do it and he just
said no and they were over loaded and
they weren’t able to get off the runway
and it killed him the pilot and all of
these kids I think like four of his kids
if I’m not mistaken and somebody says
well then why did God let that well God
told him yeah gave his wife a dream and
he knew better the pilot told him not to
do it and yet he didn’t obey it again if
I believe that if we’re welling in the
secret place the Lord will speak to you
like me don’t get on that plane the Lord
will tell you not to do something and
but does everybody obey that no and
because of that I believe that you do
have Christians who really love God and
are great people but they just aren’t
listening as they should I believe that
God would warn us against things that
are accidents now again persecution and
people rest in you and you know
crucifying you as they did Peter and
things like that I’m not sure that you
can avoid all of those things but
Siddhant you could totally avoid them
our be protected through them if you
were walking in Psalms 19:1
that’s why you need to get your teaching
how to hear God’s ladies very good so
Judy on Facebook says so what is the
extent of my dwelling can I believe that
my children parents or friends are part
of my dwelling I think you can influence
other people but you cannot take total
responsibility for them now if it’s a
young child that hasn’t yet got to the
place that they are willfully accepting
or rejecting the Lord I think you have a
hundred percent control over them but as
that child grows you have to start
relinquishing control to them and you
cannot control another person with your
faith and there’s a lot of Christians
that believe that you can they will take
Psalms Chapman not Psalms Acts chapter
16 verse 31 where the Philippian jailer
says serves what must I do to be saved
and they said believe on the Lord and
thou shalt be saved in thy house and
they will just say see you can write
their claim you’re a house for salvation
no that’s not saying that you can get
them saved off of your faith it’s just
you believe on the Lord and you’ll be
saved and if your house will believe on
the Lord they’ll be saved but you can’t
you can’t dictate salvation to your
husband to your wife to your children to
your friends your relatives you can’t do
that a lot of people will teach you it
but you can’t do it if you could do it
well then Jesus was negligent in not
teaching us that and that’s contrary to
what the scripture says over in 1st
Corinthians chapter 7 Paul was talking
to the wives how about that didn’t have
believing husbands and it says how do
you know a wife whether you shall save
your husband or how do you know o
husband whether you shall save your wife
he didn’t say you can claim your husband
or your wife and you can guarantee their
salvation no all you can do is live a
godly life in front of them and through
your prayer you can release conviction
towards them you can bind the devil and
the demonic powers that influence them
but they have more authority over them
than you do and say for instance your
rain for an unsaved person you can bind
the devil and command reason to come and
all of a sudden their mind will clear up
God will go to speaking to them but if
they reject it well then you got to pray
the same thing again tomorrow because
they rejected that prayer and they have
more authority over them than you do
alright
praise God okay so now we are with Carol
on Facebook just kind of shifting a
little bit but it’s all within Psalms 91
she says I am a nurse so I see sickness
all the time she says how do I get
sickness out of my mind you know that’s
hard Carol and I’ve I’ve actually had
people who are in the medical profession
and they are the hardest people to get
healed because they’ve had it ground
into them that when you see this
physical symptom that means this is
going to happen and it is so much a part
of them that they just can’t get beyond
it it’s like I can’t believe I’ve seen
people die from this how do I deal with
this and the only way that I know to do
it is second Corinthians chapter 10
verses 3 through 5 says the weapons of
our warfare are not carnal but they are
mighty through God to the pulling down
of strongholds casting down of
imaginations and every high thing that
exalts itself against the knowledge of
God bringing into captivity every
thought to the obedience of Christ
you do have the spiritual weapons to
take those thoughts captive but it’s
it’s going to take a lot of effort on
your part and the way that I do it is
when something begins to occupy my
thinking and I begin to start thinking
and being drawn that way contrary to
what I know in Scripture I will just
turn off everything I will focus
exclusively on the word and just
overdose on the word to counter that
it’s the only way I know how to do it it
you can’t just say I’m gonna do quality
time you’ve got to do quantity time to
be able to counter all of the stuff and
medical people have been so grounded in
a certain way of things going that it
just takes a lot of effort but you can
do it matter of fact we’ve got David
riffle who is now the director of our
practical government school
and he was a chiropractor and he heard
me teach on his God’s will to be healed
and he started praying for his patients
and he started seeing hundreds of people
healed he came to Bible School graduated
and now he’s back as one of the
instructors in our practical government
school and I was just talking to him
last night about how he lays hands on
people all the time but it it was an
effort for him to renew his mind you
know you have an amazing teaching out
there of keys sustained full of God and
you talk about an imagination how that
imagination can be vain so I can see her
as a nurse it’s a battle right to keep
your mind from it’s very good working
against you so Keyes disdainful of God
you guys need to get with time for one
more one more
okay so David Lee on chat says is
meditating in God’s Word in our minds
and hearts just as effective as speaking
his word out loud should we do both I
think we should do both meditation is
really important and there’s certainly
times that you can’t be speaking out
loud all of the time so meditation is
important like I just happen to have a
great teaching on that and I’m not by
any means discounting that but
meditation is more about your heart and
establish in your heart speaking is
about taking authority over demons and
over circumstances and things like that
so you need to do both
matter of fact in Joshua chapter 1 verse
8 this book of the law shall not depart
out of your mouth but you shall meditate
therein day and night implying that part
of meditation is speaking it over and
over you know when you hear yourself say
something you hear differently when it’s
you speaking like I have you ever heard
yourself on tape yeah I don’t like it
well most people do and it’s because you
know why you hear you differently you’re
hearing with your inner ear but when you
hear a recording of you you’re hearing
it through the outside the way everybody
else hears it but when you hear yourself
you’re hearing it on an inner level that
has a greater impact on you so part of
meditation is to speak forth the things
you’re meditating on and you hear it and
it enters
into your heart faith comes by hearing
even if it’s your own mouth I’ll watch
my own program sometimes and I’ve had
God speak to me through my own programs
through hearing it so that’s awesome
