I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH MARILYN FOR 23 YEARS AND THIS HAS BEEN MY GREATEST PRIVILEGE TO SERVE THE MINISTRY NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT IT WOULD BE A CALLING AND NOT JUST FOR ONE PERSON BUT A FIRE ENTIRE FAMILY SO MY WIFE AND MY DAUGHTER ARE A PART OF IT AS WELL AND THERE IS SO MUCH WE HAVE TO DO BEFORE YOU WOULD GET INTO OUR POSITION THAT GOD MIGHT ORDAIN YOU AND GIVE YOU THE VISION TO DO THE PROGRAMMING HE WANT YOU TO DO. AND YOU KNOW I HAD TO HAVE THE PROPER EDUCATION, I HAD A SEMINARIAN EDUCATION IN FORT WORTH AND SOUTHWEST, AND BEFORE I CAME HERE... AND ONE OF THE GREATEST PRIVILEGES WAS WORKING AT WALT DISNEY WORLD, I WAS A DIRECTOR IN THE CASTING CENTER IN ORLANDO AND THAT WAS A GREAT PLEASURE TO WORK WITH THEM AND YOU KNOW I WOULD HIRE THE PEOPLE FOR WALT DISNEY WORLD FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD TO WORK AT THE PARKS AND THE HOTELS AND RESORTS. THAT WOULD BE SOME OF THE BEST CORPORATE TRAINING THAT YOU COULD FIND ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD. I COULD SPEAK AT THE UNIVERSITY AT DISNEY I WOULD SPEAK FOR THE CORPORATIONS AND THEY WANTED TO KNOW HOW WE WOULD MAKE LEARNING FUN AND HOW TO DO BUSINESS IN A FUN WAY AND IT WAS A LOT OF FUN. I SPENT SOME TIME IN HUMAN RESOURCES WITH THE PAPA JOHN'S, AND WE OPENED UP THE WESTERN US. AND THEN I WENT TO WORK WITH MARILYN AND THEN I WAS WORKING AS THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF A PRIVATE FOUNDATION THAT WAS FUNDING THE GOSPEL ALL AROUND THE WORLD IT HAS BEEN A GREAT RIDE. >> I KNOW THAT WITH MARILYN HICKEY AND THERE WOULD BE A GLOBAL EMPHASIS AND MAYBE AN EMPHASIS IN HER LIFE I THINK SHE WOULD BE MAYBE 89 YEARS OLD NOW. >> AND SHE WOULD BE 90 YEARS OLD SOON, IN A FEW MONTHS. >> AND COULD YOU SHARE SOME OF HER RESPONSIBILITIES THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE NOW WITH THE MINISTRY NOW? >> AND THE TEAM THAT I WOULD BE A LEADING AND WHERE I AM LEAVING HERE AT THE MINISTRY WOULD BE OUR GLOBAL DIVISION AND THAT WOULD COVER AMERICA AND THE INTERNATIONAL EVENTS. SO IF SHE WOULD BE ON A TV PROGRAM IN DOLLARS IT WOULD BE MY JOB THAT WE WOULD PUT IT ALL TOGETHER AND MAYBE SHE WOULD LIKE TO DO A CRUSADE AND MAYBE SHE WANTS TO GO TO THE SUDAN OR PAKISTAN OR BANGLADESH OR ETHIOPIA, AND MY TEAM WOULD PUT THAT TOGETHER. AND MANIPULATIVE, AND THEY WOULD SAY I WOULD BE LIKE JOHN THE BAPTIST. >> I HAVE SAID THAT MANY TIMES. >> LAUGHTER. >> AND YES, I'M SORT OF LIKE JOHN THE BAPTIST AND WHEN WE WANT TO GO TO A PARTICULAR COUNTRY AND I WILL GO TO THE NATION FIRST AND BUILD RELATIONSHIPS I THINK THAT WOULD BE ONE OF THE KEY THINGS THAT WE SHOULD REMEMBER IN THE MINISTRY AND REALLY IN THE CORPORATE WORLD AS WELL AND SO MUCH OF OUR WORK WOULD BE BASED ON RELATIONSHIPS AND WE HAVE TO MAKE THAT RIGHT. AND THAT WOULD BEGIN WITH OUR RELATIONSHIP WHEN IT WOULD BE ONE ON ONE WITH CHRIST. AND WE GO OUT TO OTHERS FROM THERE, I WOULD GO TO PAKISTAN, AND EVER GOING TO BE HAVING A LARGE CRUSADE LIKE WE DID THREE YEARS AGO AND WE HAD 1 MILLION PEOPLE IN KARACHI, THE FIELD, AND WE HAD 1 MILLION PEOPLE AND WE HAD THE GRAND IMAM WITH US AND WHILE SHE WAS MINISTERING AND IT TOOK ABOUT SIX TRIPS BEFORE WE COULD GET THAT EVENT TAKING PLACE. >> AND YOU KNOW YOU JUST DON'T HELP OUT FROM THE PLANE. >> AND YOU KNOW IT TAKES A LOT OF CUPS OF TEA TO BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH THE LEADERS IN THE GOVERNMENT AND WITH THE MUSLIM PEOPLE AS WELL AND IN THE CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY AS WELL AND WE BUILD RELATIONSHIPS AND THAT WOULD BE THE REAL KEY. AND WE WANT TO BRIDGE THE GAP FOR DOCTOR MARILYN HICKEY TO COME INTO THE NATION. >> AND I KNOW THAT WE HAVE SHARED AS A FAMILY SOME OF THESE THINGS I STILL AND I CANNOT UNDERSTAND TO THIS DAY AS WE SPOKE ABOUT THIS IN THE PAST AND MAYBE YOU COULD SHARE AND WHERE THERE WERE SOME CLOSE CALLS. >> ABSOLUTELY, IT WOULD BE INTERESTING AND THINGS BECOME BALANCED OUT AND THEY MIGHT SEE SOMEONE LIKE MARILYN HICKEY OR BILLY GRAHAM OR THESE GREAT MINISTERS OF THE CALLING AND THEY HAVE GOT GREAT TEAMS THAT WOULD BE A PART OF THEM AND I'M SO GLAD TO BE A PART OF THIS GREAT TEAM AS WELL. AND YOU KNOW THEY THINK IT MIGHT BE WONDERFUL THAT DAVID GO ALL AROUND THE WORLD AND FLYING FROM HERE TO THERE AND STAYING IN HOTELS, AND YOU ARE BASICALLY JET SETTING ALL OVER THE WORLD. AND YES, THERE WOULD BE ANOTHER SIDE TO THAT, PEOPLE DON'T SEE IT AND WE HAD A BIG, A FEW YEARS AGO WE HAD A BIG MEANING THAT WE WERE PLANNING IN PAKISTAN IN ISLAMABAD, AND THAT WOULD BE THE CAPITAL CITY. AND WE LANDED MANY DAYS BEFORE THE EVENT AND EVERYTHING WAS PREPARED I HAD GONE IN MANY TIMES BEFORE HAND AND AS WE ARRIVED AND THE NIGHT BEFORE THE CRUSADE AND BEFORE, AND THE GOVERNMENTS THAT WE COULD USE THE STADIUM I WAS CALLED TO THE PRESIDENT'S PALACE IN ISLAMABAD AND IT WAS THEIR SECRET SERVICE THEY WOULD BE THE SSI AND THEY SAID WE CANNOT DO THE EVENT AND WE HAVE JUST ARRESTED AND WE HAVE ARRESTED A TERRORIST CELL, AND WE FOUND PICTURES OF MARILYN HICKEY, AND THEY FOUND PICTURES OF ME. AND THEN THEY FOUND OUR MEDIA TEAM AND ALSO OUR NATIONAL CHAIRMAN, AND THIS WAS ON THE TABLE WITH THE BLUEPRINTS, AND THEN THEY HAD MARKINGS WHERE WE WOULD BE AND THEY HAD SUICIDE BOMB PACKS, WITH PICTURES, AND THEY HAD TAKEN PICTURES, YOU KNOW AFTER WE HAD GOT INTO PAKISTAN. >> AND YOU KNOW THEY WERE DOING IT WITH TELEPHOTO LENSES. >> [ OVERLAPPING CONVERSATION] >> AND YOU KNOW THEN WE SAID LET'S MAKE A NEW PERSPECTIVE AND LET'S PRAY AND SHE SAID I WANT MY FAMILY TO GO HOME AND WE CALL OUR FAMILY MEMBERS AND THE FAMILIES FELT LIKE WE DID AND WE WERE CALLED AND WE WOULD BE PROTECTED AND WE COULD DO OUR VISION AND THAT IS WHEN YOU WOULD SUPPORT A RENEWED SUPPORT SOMEONE LIKE MARILYN HICKEY AND MAYBE YOUR SERVING YOUR BOSS OR A FEMALE EMPLOYER, AND MAYBE A SECULAR JOB, YOU MUST SHARE YOUR VISION. AND YOU KNOW IT WOULD BE LIKE A HAND AND A GLOVE AND WE DID NOT WALK AWAY AND FATHER JAMES OF THE CATHOLIC COMPOUND AND HE GAVE US THE COMPOUND AND WE DID NOT HAVE TIME TO ADVERTISE THE CHANGE BUT WE HAD THE WHOLE COMPOUND AND WE DID IT AND WE PUT UP THE PLATFORM WITH FILMING AND EVERYTHING, AND WE HAD A 40,000 PEOPLE THE NEXT FEW NIGHTS AND GOD DID AMAZING THINGS AND THE NEXT THING AND WE WERE IN SUDAN, AND THAT WAS OUR SECOND TIME THERE, AND YOU KNOW THERE WAS OSAMA BIN LADEN WATCHING EVERYTHING WE WERE DOING. AND YOU KNOW AND THEY ROUGHED ME UP AND THEY WANTED ME TO LEAVE, AND WE REMAINED TO DO THE WORK WE WERE CALLED TO DO. >> AND HOW WOULD YOU BALANCE THAT OUT? MAYBE IN YOUR LIFE AND WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WELL? AT ABOUT WE DO NOT CHANGE? AND MAYBE MAYBE YOU WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE THINGS AND DO THINGS DIFFERENTLY? AND YOU KNOW I NEVER ASK EASY QUESTIONS, I'M ASKING HARD QUESTIONS. >> AND YOU KNOW I TRIED TO KEEP A BALANCE, AND I PUT GOD FIRST AND MY FAMILY SECOND AND MEVELSINESS AND MY MINISTRY WOULD BE ON THE THIRD LEVEL. AND IT IS EASY TO GET CAUGHT UP IN THE MINISTRY AND YOU THINK THAT WOULD BE FIRST BUT YOU KEEP GOD FIRST AND THEN YOU WOULD KEEP THE MINISTRY 2, AND THEN I MEAN THE FAMILY SHOULD BE 2 AND THIS IS WHAT I TRY TO DO AND DURING MY TIME WITH MARILYN HICKEY MINISTRIES I HAVE TRIED TO BALANCE OUT THINGS VERY WELL I WANT TO LET MY FAMILY KNOW I DON'T CARE WHERE I WOULD BE IN SOME TIME ZONE AND THEY COULD CALL ME, AND I WANT THEM TO KNOW YOU CAN CALL DADDY, I WILL PICK UP THE PHONE AND IF I GET A TEXT MESSAGE I WILL RETURN THE MESSAGE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND I TRY TO BE ACCESSIBLE. AND I HAVE TRIED TO DO MY CONFESSIONS, AND YOU KNOW I AM MAKE THEM EVERY DAY I SPEAK OF THE WORD ABOUT 35 DIFFERENT ONES EVERY DAY AND I'M VERY GOOD ABOUT THAT, I THINK. AND WHAT HAS BEEN DIFFICULT WITH TRAVELING, IT WOULD BE KEEPING UP WITH MY BIBLE READING IN MY PERSONAL DEVOTIONAL TIME. AND YOU KNOW YOU HAVE PEOPLE PULLING ON YOU AND YOU WOULD BE TIRED, AND YOU HAVE GOT TO BE READY FOR THEM. THAT IS THE THING THAT WOULD BE CHALLENGING AND WE ALL AND AT TIMES WE WANT TO PUT THE MINISTRY FIRST BUT PUT GOD FIRST AND THEN THE FAMILY AND THEN EVERYTHING ELSE FALLS IN LINE. >> BEFORE WE WENT ON THE AIR, AND YOU KNOW YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR PRAYER BUBBLE WITH YOUR WIFE DEEDEE, AND YOU KNOW, WE CAN DO WHAT GOD WANTS US TO DO AS WE SERVE THE LORD BUT ALSO TO REALIZE WE NEED A PRAYER AND WE MUST NOT WALK IN FEAR, AND WE CAN YOU BECOME NERVOUS, AND I SEE THINGS GLOBALLY NOW LORD AS YOU WERE SAYING FOR THE MEN THAT WOULD BE SERVING IN THE FAMILY AND IN THE CHURCH AND THE BUSINESS AND THEY WOULD BE OPERATING IN THE MINISTRY OF SERVANT, AND WE DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO BE AFRAID. AND LET'S PRAY FOR PEOPLE, AND LET'S PRAY THAT THEY WOULD OPERATE AS A SERVANT AND NOT IN FEAR. >> AND WE WILL PRAY RIGHT NOW AND GOD WILL KEEP YOU FROM YOUR FEAR TO BLESS YOU IN EVERYTHING YOU DO. AND FATHER GOD RYAN AND I JOINED TOGETHER RIGHT NOW AND WE WILL BLESS AND WE BLESS ALL OF THE MEN THAT WOULD BE WATCHING THE PROGRAM AND WE ASK YOU TO GIVE THEM THE ANOINTING AND HELP THEM TO PUT YOU FIRST AND THEN TO PUT THE FAMILY 2 AND THEN THIRDLY... THEY WOULD ADD IN CAREER AND MAYBE THE MINISTRY, AND THAT WOULD BE 3, AND I THANK YOU THAT THESE MEN CANNOT OPERATE IN FEAR AND THEY MIGHT HAVE SOME THINGS AHEAD OF THEM AND THE ENEMY WANTS TO BRING DESTRUCTION AS WE SPEAK AGAINST THE DESTRUCTION AND THE FEAR AND WE PULL IT DOWN AND WE PRAY THAT THEY COULD HAVE PEACE AND DISCERNMENT, IN THE NAME OF CHRIST JESUS. >> THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE TODAY. I KNOW YOU LIKE TO COOK, I KNOW, YOU KNOW AND YOU WOULD BE CONNECTED WITH THE MINISTRY HERE AND MAYBE WE COULD GET THE KEY TO HER HOUSE AND MAYBE WE COULD GO OVER THERE AND I THINK MAYBE SHE IS OUT OF THE COUNTRY AND WE COULD SNEAK OVER AND MAYBE WE COULD COOK UP A DISH. >> AND THE BIBLE SAYS ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE GOD. I THINK WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO DO THAT. >> ARE LED LET'S DO A COOKING SEGMENT. >> I WOULD LOVE TO DO THAT. ♪ >> MUSIC ♪ ♪ MUSIC ♪ ♪ MUSIC ♪ ♪ MUSIC ♪ ♪ MUSIC ♪ ♪ ♪ >> WE ARE HERE NOW AND I BELIEVE WE ARE IN THE HOUSE OF MARILYN HICKEY.

AND WE WILL USE A WONDERFUL ORGANIC BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND WE DO A LITTLE OF THAT, AND WE HAVE ONE CUP OF SUGAR, AND THAT WOULD COME DOWN TO BE REDUCED, AND WE WOULD MAKE A GLAZE WHEN THEY COME OUT OF THE OVEN. >> AND THIS IS WHY WHEN I WOULD COME OVER AND THE HOLIDAYS, AND I HATE BRUSSELS SPROUTS BUT I WILL EAT THEM I'M SURE MANY MEN DON'T LIKE IT, AND YOU MIGHT SAY BRUSSELS SPROUTS AND YOU WOULD CHANGE THE CHANNEL, BUT YOU KNOW YOU WILL WANT TO WATCH AND THESE ARE THE ONLY ONES, BUT DON'T TELL ANYBODY BUT I LIKE YOURS THE VERY BEST.

I REMEMBER YOU MIGHT BE OVERSEAS AND PREACHING FOR JOSEPH FRIENDS AND YOU WOULD LET ME KNOW THAT YOU WERE PRAYING FOR ME AND THAT WAS SO IMPORTANT TO ME AND I WAS ABLE TO HOLD ON, AND WE HAD A RELATIONSHIP. >> THAT WAS SUCH A CHALLENGE FOR YOU AND I THINK WE AS CHRISTIANS AND WE NEED TO STAND IN THE GAP, AND YOU KNOW JUST DON'T FIND THE GAP BUT STAND IN THE GAP UNTIL YOU GET THE MIRACLE. >> I WAS ON YOUR TEAM HERE AT THE CHURCH AT ONE TIME, AND YOU KNOW I NOTICED IS SO GREAT TO HAVE A GOOD TEAM AROUND YOU THAT GOD WANT YOU TO DO SOME THINGS BUT YOU NEED A GOOD TEAM. AND WHAT HAS GOD DONE THROUGH YOUR LIFE? AND HOW HAVE YOU BEEN IN THESE THINGS NOW? >> AND I THINK THE PROCESSES OF GOD WOULD BE SO IMPORTANT AND SOMETIMES IT LOOKS LIKE WE WILL FAIL AND I CAN REMEMBER AND WHEN I TRIED TO GET ON TELEVISION, AND ONE OF THE BOARD MEMBERS SAID, YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW, HE WAS NOT HAPPY AND HE SAID, AND I'M THINKING YOU KNOW, ALL RIGHT, THIS IS GREAT. AND THESE ARE THE TIMES YOU MUST ENCOURAGE YOURSELF IN THE LORD BECAUSE THEY DID NOT STAND BEHIND ME. BUT REMEMBER WE CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST, AND HE SAYS I WOULD BE SURROUNDED BY FAVOR WITH A SHIELD. WE HAVE TO STAND BY FAITH FOR WHATEVER THE CIRCUMSTANCES, AND WE MUST SAY WHAT GOD SAYS. MAYBE YOU DON'T FEEL IT AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT FEELINGS, I'M TALKING ABOUT, I'M TALKING ABOUT FAITH AND THAT'S A BIG DEAL. >> AND THIS WOULD BE A MEN'S PROGRAM AND MAYBE THE MEN DON'T OPERATE ON EMOTIONS BUT THEY DO. >> OF COURSE THEY DO. >> AND SOMETIMES, THEY COULD BECOME DECEIVED, AND WE MUST NOT DO THAT, AND I KNOW AS SPEAKING OF MEN AND IN YOUR LIFE FOR PASTOR WALLY WHO WAS A HUGE INFLUENCE, AND FOR YOUR MINISTRY. I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR WHAT PASTOR AND WHAT HE DID AND YOU HAD TO BE WHAT YOU HAD TO BE. >> YOU KNOW, HE WOULD ALWAYS SAY TO ME, MARILYN, YOU CAN DO THIS, I WOULD SAY, I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN DO THIS AND YOU KNOW MAYBE I WOULD LIKE TO BE ON THIS CHANNEL AND DO THIS AND THAT, AND YOU KNOW HE SAID YOU CAN DO IT. AND HE IS THE ONE THAT GOT ME TO PREACH IN THE CHURCH, AND THEN HE SAID TO ME, IT WAS SHOCKING AND HE SAID I WANT YOU TO PREACH EVERY OTHER SUNDAY. >> AND THIS WAS BACK IN THE DAY. AND THEY WOULD LOOK DOWN ON YOU? >> YES, EVERY OTHER SUNDAY I WOULD GO TO THE PULPIT AND YOU KNOW, I NEVER HAD A DREAM ONE WHO WILL ENCOURAGE ME MORE THAN MY HUSBAND, AND HE THOUGHT I COULD DO IT ALL EVEN IF I DID NOT. >> AND WHEN I KNEW PASTOR WALLY, I KNEW THAT HE HONOR TO YOU AND HE WOULD HONOR YOUR GIFT. AND SOMETIMES MEN WANT TO HONOR OTHERS AND THEY WANTED IN RETURN BUT WE SHOULD REMEMBER WE HAVE A GIFT IN OUR LIVES, AND I HAVE SPOKEN TO MY WIFE YOLANDA AND YOU KNOW THE WIFE WOULD BE A REFLECTION OF THE HUSBAND, IN THE MINISTRY AND IN LOVE AND IN HOW THEY CARE AND SO, I KNOW AND YOU HAVE THE CHURCH NOW, AND NOW WE ARE IN DENVER AND YOU HAVE A HUGE MISSION'S PROJECT FOR WHAT YOU DO, AND YOU GO ON TRIPS AND WHY SHOULD MEN AND WHY SHOULD THEY BE A PART OF THIS? AND WHY SHOULD THEY GO ON THESE MISSIONS TRIPS? >> AND THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT GOING WHERE YOU SEE THE NEED, AND YOU MIGHT THINK, I CANNOT DO THIS BUT YOU KNOW YOU WILL FIND, OUT ABOUT YOU HAVE. AND YOU KNOW YOU WILL FIND OUT YOU WERE SO MUCH BETTER OFF THAN MOST OF THE WORLD AND WHEN WE PRAY FOR THE SICK, AND WE PRAY FOR THEM. AND YOU KNOW LIKE WE WILL TO SAY, AND SOMETIMES WE ARE TIRED WE HAVE JET LAG. AND YOU KNOW AND I WILL TELL THE LORD AND HE SAYS I DON'T HAVE ANY JET LAG AND SO HE'S OKAY. >> AND TO LINE UP WITH HIS WILL, AND I THINK THERE WOULD BE AN APPRECIATION THAT WE HAVE OVERSEAS. AND SPECIFICALLY FOR AMERICANS AND EVEN AROUND THE WORLD FOR THOSE PEOPLE THAT WOULD BE WATCHING, IT WOULD BE SO GOOD TO GET OUT OF YOUR ELEMENT, AND I THINK THAT YOU HAVE BEEN A CATALYST FOR PEOPLE AND FAMILIES AND WE KNOW AND WE KNOW THE SAYING WHEN YOU WILL GET YOUR MAN, YOU CAN GET THE FAMILY AS WELL. AND WE WANT TO BRING IN THE OTHER FAMILY MEMBERS AND LET THEM GO OUT ON MISSIONS. AND YOU HAVE A NEW BOOK AND IT CAME OUT RECENTLY IT WOULD BE CALLED "BELIEVE BIG." AND TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS BOOK? >> WELL, IF I HAD NOT BELIEVE BIG, IN MY LIFE, I WOULD BE YOU KNOW AND MAYBE MAKING PANCAKES AT HOME. AND YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW YOU REMEMBER FREDA LINDSAY, AND SHE WOULD PRAY FOR THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD. AND SHE WANTED TO HELP ME, AND I DID THIS WITH HER AND IT TOOK YOU KNOW 90 MINUTES TO DO THAT. AND I STARTED TO PRAY FOR THE NATIONS OF THE WORLD. I DID NOT KNOW I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER THIS. >> AND MAYBE YOU THOUGHT YOU WOULD PRAY BUT NEVER TRAVEL THERE? SO THINK BIG, >> AND I WOULD SAY PRAY BIG. AND THAT WOULD BE SO IMPORTANT, I AM THINKING BIG NOW THERE WOULD BE SOME BIG THINGS I WANT TO DO AND I BELIEVE THAT GOD CAN HELP ME TO DO IT. >> AND MAYBE WE COULD WRAP IT UP AND WHAT WOULD BE ONE THING THAT YOU COULD SAY AND WHEN YOU WANT TO TALK INTO THEIR LIVES AND FOR YOUR 89 YEARS OF LIFE AND ALL OF YOU YEARS OF MINISTRY, AND WHAT WOULD BE ONE THING THAT YOU COULD SAY TO MEN? >> I WOULD SAY THIS, NOW, LISTEN TO ME, EVERY MORNING WHEN I GET UP, I WILL MAKE MY COFFEE, I LIKE TO HAVE MY COFFEE, AND THAT WILL MAKE ME AND THEN, BESIDE MY CHAIR I HAVE 50 COMMITMENTS THAT I SPEAK, YOU KNOW, I CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTHENS ME. I WILL SAY, I WILL SAY WHAT I WANT EVERY DAY. I'M TELLING YOU AND IF YOU WOULD SPEAK TO THE PROMISES OF GOD YOU COULD MOVE THE MOUNTAIN, AND IF WE SAY TO THE MOUNTAIN, AND BE REMOVED AND BE CAST INTO THE SEA AND DO NOT DOUBT BUT YOU WOULD BELIEVE THAT WHATEVER YOU SAY WOULD COME TO PASS, YOU WILL HAVE WHATEVER YOU SAY. AND YOU TELL ME THAT MORE WORK? HONEY, IT'S TOO LATE. IT'S BEEN WORKING A LONG TIME FOR ME. I'M ALREADY CONVINCED. >> AND MAYBE YOU COULD PRAY FOR THE MEN TODAY? AND SPEAK OVER THEIR LIVES? >> AND FATHER I WOULD PRAY FOR THE MEN WHO ARE WATCHING THE PROGRAM. I WOULD PRAY, I WOULD PRAY FOR AN UNUSUAL ANOINTING OF WISDOM AND FOR FAITH, AND I DO THANK YOU, THAT THEY WILL HAVE A HUNGER FOR THE WORD OF THE LORD GOD I PRAY THEY WOULD HAVE A HUNGER TO SPEAK THE WORD, I PRAY THAT THEY WOULD HAVE A HUNGER TO DO THE WORD AND I FIGHT FEAR AND THE ANXIETY, AND THE FEELINGS OF INSECURITY, AND NOT BEING WORTHY. I WOULD PRAY FOR THE SPECIAL ANOINTING THAT WOULD BE ON EVERY MAN AND FOR THOSE WHO ARE CALLED AND I PRAY AND THEY HAVE A UNIQUE CALLING FOR THAT MAN, FOR YOU, IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS. YOU CAN THE EXPECT A FRESH ANOINTING EVERYDAY, AND SPEAK THE PROMISES AND THEN YOU GO MOVE THE MOUNTAIN. >> THAT IS SO AWESOME. AND THANK YOU SO MUCH. I LOVE YOU. AND YOU KNOW I CANNOT EXPRESS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU AND APPRECIATE YOU AND YOUR MINISTRY AND YOU PERSONALLY, AND WHAT YOU HAVE MEANT TO ME AT MY WIFE THROUGH THE YEARS I PRAY GOD COULD DO GREATER THINGS, I WOULD PRAY FOR YOU AS WELL, AND YOU KNOW MAYBE YOU GOT A BIGGER MEETING AND WHO EVER IT WOULD BE AND MAYBE YOU WOULD BE WITH THE KINGS OF THE MAGISTRATES AND WE PRAY FOR YOU. AND FINISH STRONG. >> THANK YOU. >> ALL RIGHT LET'S DO OUR REVIEW OF THE PROGRAM AND WE HAD STEPHEN KAISER WHO WOULD BE A VITAL PART OF WHET MARILYN CAN DO AROUND THE WORLD TO REACH PEOPLE I HOPE YOU ENJOYED MY CONVERSATION AND I PRAY I HAVE ENCOURAGED YOU TO GET INVOLVED IN MINISTRY EVEN LOCALLY AND MARILYN IS AN INSPIRATION AND SHE SAYS ALL OF THIS WOULD BE LINKED TO HER HUSBAND WALLY WHO WOULD HONOR HER GIVES. AND I LOVE HER ADVICE AND SHE SAYS YOU'VE GOT TO KNOW THE BIBLE AND LENT THAT CONTROL EVERY ASPECT OF LIFE. AND SHE IS LIVING PROOF THAT THE WORD WORKS FOR THOSE WHO DON'T SIMPLY READ IT BUT THEY WILL LIVE IN AND WE WILL HAVE SOME MORE CONTENT AND YOU CAN ORDER HER NEW BOOK "BELIEVE BIG."
