Discover how praying in the spirit is a supernatural weapon the devil can’t defeat, and how it allows you to tap in to the will and power of God.
buddy I’m Kenneth Copeland this is the
believers voice of victory broadcast
let’s pray father we thank you today we
praise you and we worship You oh thank
you Jesus
you said in your word he that loves me
he it is that keeps my Commandments my
father will love it I will love it and I
will manifest myself to him and all our
Jesus we are we’re walking by faith
we’re just doing everything that that
that we know to do with a thrill and I
Anna joyful and glad heart to do
whatever you’ve told us to do in your
word and do whatever you tell us to do
day by day and so we fully expect you to
manifest yourself on this television
broadcast throughout the earth today and
we give you the praise and the honor and
the glory for it in Jesus name we pray
it amen hallelujah glory to God let’s go
back to mark chapter 11 I’m where we
began on Monday where Jesus answering
said unto them the 22nd verse have faith
in God the cross-reference says have the
faith of God which we do in the new
birth let me remind you again now and
Peter said this in in 1st Peter chapter
1 he said being born again listener not
of corruptible seed but not not of
corruptible seed but one incorruptible
seed which is the Word of God which
lives and abides forever where in you
and in me glory to God so in that seed
the seed of the word in that seed was
the very life and nature of Jesus of
Nazareth glory to God in our spirit
being the real you you are a spirit you
have a soul made up of your mind your
will and your emotions and that’s inside
your spirit and you and your soul live
in this physical body now get it in the
proper scriptural order the scripture
said spirit that you may be made whole
oh that God make you whole leg does not
not wholly hol what wh Oh ll Y whole
spirit and soul and body
now when you accepted Jesus as we did we
talked about yesterday that seed of his
word is the seed by which you were born
again amen so your spiritual DNA and the
DNA of Jesus is exactly the same you
were born of the Spirit when he came
into this earth he was born of the
Spirit in hell he was born again of the
Spirit the scripture said he was
manifest in the flesh that’s when he’s
born in Bethlehem he was made alive in
the spirit that’s when he was born again
the first begotten from the dead in the
pit of hell where he had just suffered
hell for every man all mankind but this
is the big thing right here if you’ve
never accepted Jesus as your Lord and
Savior do it right now you don’t even
you don’t have to wait the end of the
broadcast you see Jesus come into my
life and do come into my heart and do
something with my life
glory to God the apart
so Paul accepted Jesus with one word
Lord I know good well he had that on his
mind when he was right to the Church of
Garvin’s it he believed in your heart
that Jesus has been raised from the dead
and confess him as Lord with your mouth
glory to God now
I said all that to get down to this in
that seed was faith hang them amen
I’m going to the book of Galatians and I
am in the fifth chapter the fruit of the
spirit now in the King James translation
the word spirit is capitalized there but
in in the Indic in the text in the Greek
text there are no capitalizations and no
punctuation mark so but this is
referring to the born-again human spirit
the fruit of the Spirit your spirit born
of the holy spirit and the holy spirit
is residing in you if you’re born again
is love joy peace long-suffering
gentleness goodness and faith faith
actually it is the fruit of faithful
Ness but how could you have the fruit of
faithfulness how could you be a hack how
could you have the fruit of faithfulness
grow in you if you didn’t have any faith
amen it’s God’s faith the faith to get
born again the faith to receive
salvation amen
well honest don’t know brother Copeland
if I’ve got the kind of faith it takes
to bleed my way out of this mess on me
and hey you’ve already believed God for
the biggest miracle that exists amen
believing God for something in this
natural realm this child’s play compared
you being born again action brand new
creature in Christ Jesus just like God
then it’s a miracle that God didn’t want
to have anything to do with me you but
hey he loved you so much before you I
mean when you has headed straight to
hell he loved you so much that he gave
Jesus just to get to you hitting that
Marlys I don’t preach myself epic glory
to God now then that faith is in there
see it is in you when you got born again
that’s what you got born again with amen
now then how the faith on God
that’s God’s faith it’s big enough to
believe for anything verily I say unto
you whosoever shall say unto this
mountain be thou removed and be thou
cast into the sea shall not doubt in his
heart but shall believe that those
things which he saith shall come to pass
he shall have whatsoever he saith so now
we and what we’re talking about here
that Jesus mentioned saying three times
believing once and and and we’re major
and we major in the saying part because
everybody everybody that’s ever
accepting Jesus as Lord knows they
believed Amen but then not being taught
not not being New Testament taught
particularly under the influence of
religion get the identity just say
anything well you can’t say anything but
it’ll kill you you can’t say just
anything by faith and words release
faith backed by corresponding action now
let’s go back to where we were yesterday
and let’s let’s look once more in John’s
Gospel chapter 6 where Jesus said in the
63rd verse it is the spirit that
quickeneth or gives life the flesh
profits nothing
so words that are generated out of the
flesh out of the carnal mind or in the
flesh natural world don’t have any life
in them they’re full of death to be
carnally minded is death you can be born
again go to heaven when you die and and
live a life that is so carnal you very
rarely ever receive anything from God
well it’s wonderful that you go to
heaven but hey you could have had some
heaven while you’re here on here and
should ahead now then the words that I
speak unto you are spirit and they are
life
his words are spirit and they are life
now again the 14th chapter of John Jesus
said believe us now not that I’m in the
father and the father in me let me ask
you do you believe yes well did you know
the father’s in you really yeah same as
Jesus same spirit same father because he
goes right ahead in this chapter and
promised that he’s going to the Father
and sin the same spirit now then the
words that I speak unto you I speak not
of myself but the father that dwelleth
in me he does the works now then
yesterday we were talking about speaking
with other tongues let’s go now well now
brother cope now wait just a minute I
you know now I add on a quit arguing
about it would you please that old that
old dog won’t hunt no more I mean it’s
been argued over split one weighing down
the other you need to know that the
reason the devil has come against that
so bad is right here it is right here
in in the 14th chapter of 1st
Corinthians when it says he that
speaketh in an unknown tongue speaks not
unto men but unto God for no man
understands him and neither can the
devil he can’t get in
it and he knows that that’s where the
that is a open door the baptism with the
Holy Spirit is the open door to the
outpouring of God’s holy spirit
manifestations those twelve powerful
gifts praise God
amen and he has no defense for it but
remember the importance of words is this
for every believer let’s check it out
in the book of Mark in that very last
chapter of the book of Mark verse
fifteen go ye into all the world preach
the gospel to every creature he that
believes in his baptized shall be saved
he that believeth not shall be damned
these signs shall follow them that
believe in my name shall they cast out
devils in my name they shall speak with
new tongues now some I’ve heard this
said well now in brother : see that that
just just simply means that that these
other other languages no no no no all of
these are supernatural see they show in
my name they will cast out devils
you can’t cast the devil out with
without the supernatural power God they
shall speak with new tongues that’s
supernatural they’ll take up serpents
and if they drink any deadly thing it
will not hurt them that’s supernatural
they’ll lay hands on the sick and they
shall recover that supernatural see all
of these supernatural things so this is
that this not following preachers this
is anybody that believes that this is
something that is spiritual equipment
for the child of God now I want to point
out some things concerning this remember
now Jesus said my words are not my own
now how can you get over into words
that are not your own in your natural
language you wouldn’t write the written
word of God yes and you can believe
those words that’s true but that’s only
your you’re dealing with it with your
natural mind and well let me help you
with one more step here in the eighth
chapter of the book of Romans and this
is what’s so big to me this was just
been huge in my life in the okay verse
twenty-six eighth chapter of Romans
likewise the spirit also helpeth our
infirmities the Greek word there
translated actually more accurately
would be instead of help of takes hold
together with us against our infirmities
now what are these infirmities for we
know not what we should pray for as we
ought he didn’t say we don’t know what
to pray for we get into the Word of God
we know what to pray for him you’ve got
situations in your life you know what to
pray for but pray for as we ought the
Spirit Himself maketh intercession for
us with groanings which cannot be
uttered now if you search out the word
uttered that the literal Greek meaning
there is cannot be uttered in articulate
speech or a specific language of your
own so it’s obvious it it’s talking
about something that’s happening in the
spirit that is deeper than what your
mind can get to it says with groanings
which cannot be uttered Jesus did that
he stood at the tomb of Lazarus and he
groaned in the spirit you ever think
about that and apply that to this he
groaned in the spirit now Jesus didn’t
did speak with other tongues but he
spoke in the spirit any language he
would anything that come out of him that
he would immediately by the spirit and
on what it was but what he’s doing there
he’s moving in the spirit he groaned in
the spirit what’d he do he went into a
deeper place of the spirit see that’s
available to you and me amen we have the
faith of God we believe in those words
with the same as the same powers we
believe in means he groaned in the
spirit and what they say I know you
always hear me
hurry to God well we can do that we can
we I’ve had the intercessors he’s
interceding there I’ve had that come in
me as I’m interceding I was a good
friend of mine had been the last stages
of cancer years agos at city of faith
and Tulsa and I I was I was at the city
of faith got there the same day he did I
didn’t know that he was coming but I was
in the city of faith that day when they
checked him in so and I hadn’t I’d laid
hands on him and prayed with him and and
went on to church that night still
Wednesday night and I know there in the
praise and worship service and I said
Gloria Oh Gloria well something’s wrong
and who oh oh oh I said a lot of what is
this and I heard the word cancer and I
said I don’t have cancer
he’s and and then I realized what was
happening I was interceding for my
friend and Alice you don’t all don’t huh
I’ve heard people say O Lord O Lord put
that thing on me no no you ain’t
qualified you be shut that up the devil
the devil is will I mean you open the
door to him and in in in foolish things
like that Jesus already borne our
sicknesses carried our diseases weakness
sickness pains grief
sorrows praise God and all you sin
you’re not qualified for that
so I said glory I got to go back over
that hospital own account of brother
Rodriguez so I went over there and the
Spirit of the Lord began talk to me
about what to pray what to do and and so
forth when I got over there and I’m ha
ha are you here what i shoul don’t
reckon o
panama now be cautious about trying to
do that you don’t try to groan in the
spirit you allow yourself to be used of
the Spirit of God because if you’re
doing it in the flesh it ain’t on you
you’d be better off if you just you just
speak with your heavenly language in
faith and just praise God in that heaven
and language still praying for the same
person you understand I just wanted to
show you what’s available to you in me
in the baptism with the Holy Spirit
speaking with other tongue I’ve heard
people say early well what’s the use of
don’t you know jabbering around and
something you don’t understand were you
speaking not on the men but on the God
amen
that’s big well I speak to him in my
natural language not like this you can’t
know you keep doing that you can’t with
your natural language get into the place
where the these manifestations of the
Spirit reside anyway I did what the Lord
said he said go over there now he
supposed to died tonight and he said you
go over there and you take a text and he
gave him the scriptures and you preach
healing he said I don’t know just read
those scriptures turn you walk around
that room just like you do anywhere else
and and you preach you preach until I
tell you to stop I preached for 45
minutes and and proud I preached a
message on faith I mean this man knows
much about the Word of God as I do but
that’s what the Lord told me to do and
so I did it I’m just
walking down that run on preaching faith
to him preach faith in like I said 45
minutes went by and and the Lord said
now crawl up under his bed and pray in
tongues till I tell you to quit so I got
up under there that you know that that
bed was higher than a normal bed of
course I just scooted back up under
there well I’m in a city of faith and
that that whole all the doctors and all
the nurses are all spirit film they
heard me preaching to him they came in
their men and and they’re standing there
praying in the spirit while I’m
preaching to him and and I’m back up
under there and I’m praying in the
spirit and praying in the spirit and
they join me and sometimes they’d have
to leave and go bat around but that they
were just helping me praise God we were
praying in tongues praying in tongues
praying in the spirit praying in the
spirit
that’s the way my momma prayed me into
the kingdom of God hallelujah and and so
and it just lifted it just lifted and
when it’ll lift like that you may be
praying for your children you don’t know
what’s going on God may call on you to
pray for something you don’t know what
it is and you find out later you’re
praying for somebody you didn’t even
know but these things are available
praise God well I get lifted and and
sometimes you’re just saying in the
spirit of why are you these are all of a
sudden see this this this groaning this
intercession spirit just just lifting to
all of the Sun ah yep I got it praise
God I left the next morning they went in
and checked him he was totally he he had
he had cancer of rectum that that that
whole part of his body was all brand-new
and they said it was like baby ski whoa
