My Sheep Know My Voice | Kenneth Copeland

thank you Lord Jesus thank you Lord Jesus thank you Lord Jesus say it I believe I will I take it I am healed I have it I'm grateful to you sir it's mine I have it and I forgive if I have all against it hmm [Music] or whatever I had his University thank you for thanking he was wounded the word translated wounded is the Hebrew word tormented perfected love casteth out fear because fear hath torment pray you don't have any place tonight any reason to be tormented no oh but brother Copeland you don't know what's going on ahaha but I know what's already going on oh now I got a lot of stuff I could be tormented about tonight but I got better things to do than that [Applause] the way you go from one place to the other is set your mind you're thinking your focus on that place and that's where you will go that's where you go what you look at what you focus your mind on is where you go what you focus and what you fix your mind on becomes your source of supply and if it's anything but God it's idolatry fix your mind off that thing that's tormenting you get your mind off it you catch yourself thinking about it you stop and say out loud no no no I cast that thought and imagination down I'm not fixing my mind on that I'm not going there Satan you can't make me think what I'm don't want to think and what I've decided not the thing you can't make me do that can nobody make you think something you don't want to think how cool it is or where it is now you got in trouble for being rebellious but do you still remember how you did it you just don't do what they tell you to do well now rebel against the devil rebel against sickness and disease rebel against poverty rebel against being wrote and say by the eternal Almighty God I ain't going there anymore and fix your mind on things above amen that's my Sal of you brother go blue now sit down and get you Bible haha I love you too glory to God Keith what was that story brother Hagin used to tell about that that little boy in school no way it was brother Roberts I believe that totally one of the other room anyway he said the teacher kept telling him does Ted stand up no she said you stand up everybody else is standing up and I stand up no she walked over there with her switch in her hand and popped that desk she said you stand up young men he stood up he said that's alright I ain't standing up on the inside amen I'm gonna make sure I preach long enough tonight Thank You hallelujah all right let's go to the Gospel of John and we'll begin in the 14th chapter John's gospel did you ever start chewing something and it just kept getting bigger you know some old cheap steak and you know you wonder who's missing am you right now nothing you've got all that gristle in it and the more you chew the bigger the thing gets I have been chewing on this and chewing on this and it just keeps getting bigger and bigger and it tastes better the more I chew and I'll tell you what we're gonna hell supper tonight on the Word of God thank you Jesus say I opened my heart I opened my mind to hear the word of the Lord hallelujah John 14 verse 10 believe us now not that I am in the father and the father in me the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself but the father that dwelleth in me he does the works believe me that I'm in the father and the father and me or else believe me for the very works sake verily verily I say unto you he that believeth on me the works that I do shall he do also and greater works than these shall he do because I go to my father well brother Copeland how how could we ever do the works that he did much less greater works than these that's the wrong question amen I can tell you exactly in fact let's just read it again believe us that not that I'm in the father and the father in me do you believe that oh yes the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself but the father that dwelleth now the first part of that work was to give the words that Jesus was to speak Jesus spoke them and the father did the works now that's the way we'll do the same thing it's the same process now this didn't work because it was Jesus no it didn't work because it was him you remember when they said what manner of man is this that even the wind and the water obey Him it never was a question of what manner of man that who was doing the speaking has never been the issue faith is the issue the Word of God is the issue when God commands when he speaks and gives anybody Jesus or any person that follows him because we're joint heirs with him we have his spirit his name his word his life the same father dwelling in us there's dwelling in him when he was on the planet is that right well the same process for anybody that'll say what they hear God's say and do what the Lord has commanded them to do or like Jesus said what I see my father do then the same process for function faith in God consequently faith in his word faith in his name faith in his blood faith works amen now look look at the look at the 21st verse there oh I'll tell you I live in this 21st verse it's just so wonderful he that hath my Commandments now wait a minute now wait a minute Jesus uh sir he that hath my Commandments and keepeth them hmm well well Jesus I see that's what you were doing mm yeah in fact let's look at the fifth chapter chapter 5 verse 19 jesus said unto them verily verily I say unto you the son can do nothing of himself oh that got rid of millions and millions of church bulletins right there yeah and I'll tell you what and get rid of a lot of church members too if you start talking like this you know one fella told me well that he said brother Copeland I was a member in good standing in such-and-such church for 20 years unknown alcoholic and life beater he said but brother Copeland I got born again and baptizing the Holy Ghost and he said I found out I've been made the righteousness of God and I started going around telling that and he said they kick me out in 90 days religion hate that gun at all but all I'll tell you God loves it amen so now notice he said believes tonight I'm in the father the father and meet the words that I speak unto you I speaking out of myself verily verily I say unto you the son can do nothing of himself but what he sees the father do for what things soever he does these also the son likewise for the Father loves the Son and shows him all things that hims him self does look at verse 30 I can of mine own self there nothing as I hear I judge my judgment is just because I seek not mine own will but the will of the Father which has sent me he said I can do nothing of myself but the father loves me he that hath my Commandments and keepeth them he it is that loves me and he that loves me shall be loved of my father and I will love him and I will manifest myself to him the Greek text there says I will make myself clearly seen and clearly heard and clearly known now you and I we know we know Christians all over the place that it do nearly anything get that to happen crying fasting praying whatever else they can think of to do to get Jesus to manifest himself well God loves everybody right well then what what is singled out here God loves everybody in the same but his desire is to manifest himself to every man any man that will hear my voice will open up I will come into him it is his will to manifest himself to anybody he's not staying hid to teach you something he can't teach you anything hiding from you but there are certain spiritual laws involved in this and he will not Jesus will not violate his calling of his ministry as a high priest under the order of Melchizedek outside the governing laws of that calling amen but when we as joint heirs partakers of that calling say the same thing he says we get the same results he gets in fact the word translated profession or confession in Hebrews 3 in Hebrews 4 seeing them we have a great high priest passed into the heavenly let us hold fast our profession our confession literally means say the same thing as now go back a third look at that isn't that what Jesus was talking about the words that I speak unto you I speaking out of myself I'm saying the same thing to you that God said to me therefore he does the works folks that's not hard that's not tricky amen now religion religion or Baal it ups bad you can't find it anymore but truth is very simple Amen Jesus said we know the truth the truth will make you free so now apply that to that 21st verse Jesus loved his father his father loved him and he only said what he heard his father say he said I can do nothing of myself but my father has shown me what I must say and what I must do I love my father my father loves me then that then don't we see in that 21st verse there now how Jesus miracles were come in the past the father spoke he obeyed the father did the work now what about Moses do you remember that they came up against the Red Sea and already this must drive it are we told you we should have stayed there they had absolutely no revelation of the fact that God loved me and without a revelation of the fact that God loves you then you don't keep what he said do and you don't get the results so but but what happened there we want will turn there but in the book of Exodus when they came up there God said what to say he said tell the people to go forward stick that staff out over that lake I'll take care of it so what did Moses do he said what God told him to save and he did what God told him to do and God did the work amen now they were they were in a pressure zone because they had to water on one side and a bunch of mean people another and they were scared of both but God said and Moses said and in God said and Moses did and God did that's the process always has been and always will be and it is for any human being that will follow it because the principle is the same and it can't be changed the devil can't change it I'll tell you what he sure would like to and he'll talk you out of it talk you into something talk you out of something he'll Konya lie to you Gloria made a profound statement the other day you need to write this down are you writing so much to sitting there looking at me you don't have to write it down but she's going to ask probably questions later if things were as bad as the devil says they are he wouldn't have to lie about it but that mean you look para darling hey men now somebody said how do you live with somebody that anointed and that wise very carefully I enjoy it praise God she teaches me and I preach amen now Joshua in fact let's turn over to the book of Joshua thank you are thank you no not not the Lord you just back me up I'm getting hitting myself let's go to the book of Proverbs and let's look at the fourth chapter of Proverbs verse 20 my son attend to my words incline your ear to my sayings let them not depart from thine eyes keep them in the midst of your heart for they are life to those that find them and health the cross-references medicine to all their flesh all their flesh all of it from hair to toenails you understand all of it praise God there is no sickness no disease no problem no malady that the spirit soul body of any human being can encounter in the curse that's come on this earth through the sin of man that the Word of God won't fix it praise God and it is never too late Amen my spiritual father old Roberts called me one day he said killeth you know he had a they had put her in in the very early days of stents in arteries they had put one in one of his arteries back when those things first came out and now the thing was 20 years old and the doctors were concerned about it because it been a long time and then new ones that had come out they said just lasts more than a lifetime and and they were concerned about this and particularly his age and they said we'd like to go in there and and change that thing so he called he he said do you know what some people told me and these were these were people that pretty close to they said oral you don't need to be doing that now not at your age that's just too risky you need to just sit down and relax and take the medicine they've given you it's just too risky and he said risky in a jerk the tofo risky he said they're telling all Roberts is too risky and then he started laughing and he said risky he said and then they said oral oral is just too risky you might die he said on the other side of that is stunning tale or robbers to sit down and take his medicine oh he was just storming and steaming and laughing all the same oh my how many of you were at miss Evelyn's homegoing service remember that and that they said no no brother Kenneth when you get through preaching the message there well you could just out of respect ask brother Roberts if he's something he'd like to say he probably won't won't do it but well not already decided you know I'd only thought about that now that morning at the graveside which was just for the family and and I was sitting on the second row just one seat over from behind brother Roberts belly Joe Dart it was was ministering gravesites they when they brought brother Roberts in they'd hold him up he could not walk by himself and and they set him down there better Joe was going on with the message now I want you to listen now how this ties in to what we're talking about tonight he said and and he interrupted Billy Joe Doherty he said Billy Billy Joe and he came over there he said sir he said I'm planting my most precious seed could just barely speak I didn't scooted out on the edge of my seat and I could just barely hear what he's saying I'm planting my most precious sea now remember seed faith was a driving revelation in that ministry huh now here we are that was before noon here we are now what two o'clock afternoon or three o'clock I think the service started around 2:00 or 2:30 something like that and and you know I preached at least 10 minutes and point one lasted 10 minutes but I had been given the the the privilege and the authority to say whatever the Lord had me to say and I preached about 40 minutes I think something like that I turned around and I said brother Roberts now remember now he's probably not going to do anything I said sir do you have something to add to this before we close he said yes I do came up they brought a chair up there and scooted it out on the platform and sit down he sat down in that chair and I'm telling you the anointing of God came on that place and he preached longer than I did and he cut the ends of the arms on that chair and he said if you think I am going to just sit down and quit then you don't know me and you don't know the anointing of Jesus and he began to stand and he stood to his feet and he said I will preach this gospel until I die [Music] now what happened from that morning when he could hardly speak and could hardly walk he came in there or what looked like an old man but by mid-afternoon he was back in the saddle and a well armed [Applause] what happened the word he began to preach the word that he had heard his father say take my healing message to your generation and he wasn't done yet now he could have just folded up and quit that he buried him probably hours later because he and Miss Ellen so so vitally close I mean there is it they were together a night and day like boring hour I Keith themselves are minute them well we all want but that power oh yeah but he's all Robert well who you that didn't happen because he's a great evangelist he's a great evangelist because that happened the Apostle Paul wasn't great because he was an apostle there have been people called as apostles that never answered that call one second just as called as he were the Apostle Paul I got killed Jesus came there specifically to save him or kill him one of the other he was not going any further it was over he had persecuted Jesus as long as he was going to there were people crying out to him and he put a stop to that mr. Saul of Tarsus hit the wall a vent the best thing he ever did was said Lord who are you shortest salvation in prayer only it happened for him because he's a believer because of his faith in God because he did what Jesus did he only said what he heard his father say and he only did what he saw Jesus do and as a father that did the work it's the same process all you and I have to do we don't even have to be concerned about doing the works of Jesus we don't have to even be concerned about how or anybody going to do greater works than here because we know he said it amen what do we then have to take responsibility for listening and obeying amen oh yeah sure we hear what he said and do what he said do then God is responsible for the works and the greater works and they are coming to pass say that loud they're coming to pass say this father I am yours to command I'll say what I hear you say I'll do what I see you do I expect you to do the rest and I'll be quick to give you the book now if you mean that it's biggest thing you ever prayed in your life other than Jesus come into my heart amen now look at this again my son attend to my words now and not just what in there what Jesus said now step one is to attend you know down here in the south of Texas particularly we don't attend we tend to we don't attend to business we tend to it and that means that something has priority if it's something I'm on tend to it's something that I've put over other things there's certain things that I that I have to tend to before I go out and do anything yet have certain commitments that I have to tend to now here God is saying you put my word first you come to me about everything you hear me first attend to my words put my word final authority in your life and this is something that has to be walked in on a daily basis and it takes a lot of reminding and it takes the renewing of the mind and come to that place where this is your way of life amen what does the word say about what God's say about it not what religion of what you assume God said about there's a lot of trouble in that well you know you know it's like they said well who's they in the first place well you know my sister's brother's cousin works in a beauty shop over and over in Dallas and I could care less amen right here time spent listening now you know as well as I do there's people call you on the phone you know exactly who it is I mean they say one word you know who it is and you have a lot of conversations and you never never exchange names there are other people call you if you ain't got a clue who they are don't know what they won't or where they come from and don't know if they're who they say they are one you never heard of them before now what's the difference one of them you paid attention to one of them you inclined your ear to that voice until you know that voice jesus said my sheep know my voice they will not follow a stranger so now you go put your eyes what do you see here let's look looks better again my son attend to my words yes Jesus I put your word first place and final authority incline your ear unto my sayings make decisions now that what you hear you will do be a doer of the word let them not depart from your eyes now we will talk about that forbid take those verses of Scripture that we've gone through tonight most particularly the book of Revelation I stand at the door knock any man here my boys then you come back and you put your eyes on the scripture for jesus said my sheep know my voice I am the great Shepherd my sheep know my voice the Lord is my shepherd I shall not want amen look at them look at those words you look at them you look at them that I believe that I choose to believe those words I know his voice I opened my ears to your sayings my dear father I'm committed I'm gonna say what I hear you say and and I'm I am determined I'm gonna say anything else amen help me correct me teach me train me show me then sit down and shut up I don't and then this comes up I think about this a lot I heard it years in your school dear dear man a god named Rufus Mosley and by the time glory and I came into the into this ministry in 1967 brother Mosley was an elderly man at that time and I was blessed just to get to hear a tape or two by him because he would he was gone just almost at the time that we came in he said he was in a meeting in Chicago and man he was in the combat zone he had he had hit the wall you know Betty up against it and he said I'm sprawled out in the floor in my hotel room and I'm crying out to God and he said man I'm here I'm praying I'm shouting I'm carrying on their lives I could and he said finally he said I stopped and thought you know what here lies a fool that knows nothing doing all the talking to somebody that knows everything I wonder what would happen if I just hush and listen that happened to me early on I mean it was a week before registration at oru and here we are we came up a couple of weeks before registration to get moved in and stuff and huh man I was torn up although one of the things that the devil used on me for four years I was supposed to been here in the very beginning in first class at or you and I was in disobedience for four years almost four years and the thing he used against me that I mean what what are you going to do when you get up there here you are why two little children you're going to starve out I mean you know you had dummy anyway you had never done good in school and blah blah blah blah I agreed with every word of it now you see what he's trying to do he's getting trying to get me to say the same thing he says Jesus said when Satan comes to steal the word what does he do he puts up situations and circumstances puts it in front of your eyes and gets it in your ears in order to get it in your mouth if you'll start saying what he says instead of the word that you received gladly that entered into your heart the sower soweth the word these are they by the way side of where the word was sown they heard the word immediately received it with gladness but had no root in themselves so they became offended so what happened they heard the word but they didn't keep saying they began to say what Satan said so what I'm he got he stole the word and they lost the hundredfold return on that word that they should have had and 75 percent of them went through that process and lost it through different thing cares of this world and all those different things entering in so now here he was just whipping me upside the head with this and I believed it I mean it it worked on me for years and I said Gloria what are we gonna do I said that we can't go up there that's cool I said well we get up there and we starve out she said can we starving now now see she had she had some sense about her and she said we're starving now we might as well starve in the will of God as out we didn't know anything about the word but I had a wife that had good sense and thank God I finally listened to her but I was still struggling with it after we got up here I said Lord what am I going to do if I could wet I figured I could go out there to Airport get a job but then if I go out there and get a job I can't go to school if I go to school I can't get a job oh woe is me oh and so I said Gloria I'm going in that bedroom at and I'm not coming out of there till I hear from God I don't care how long it takes takes all night long or all week long I don't care I'm not coming out of that room till I thought I don't know what to do about this I fell out on the floor mother ha ha ha ha no God no I'm I don't day what am I gonna build on show me what do they well god what am I gonna do Oh and suddenly it just I was just startled and and for a moment that it's kind of Kingdom herself and I thought oh I wish I'd have heard brother Moses say that before before because it was true there lay a fool doing all the talking you know fool II didn't know anything doing all the talking to somebody knew everything but but I didn't I didn't know that yet and as I said I thought I wonder if I would be quiet here I wonder if God would actually speak to me and I got quad and I heard it thank you it's about time I haven't been able to get a word in edgewise get up on your feet man I mean I hit a brace I'll sit yes sir he said I sent you here I will take care of you here [Applause] he said they cannot make a minister out of you all they can do is train you you don't go in the ministry after you get out of school you're in the ministry now you work for me now I sent you here to be trained now you go over there and you get in your class and you listen to me as internet I suggest sir man I come out of that bedroom going I said Galleria she said boy you a real soldier ain't she you're gonna stay all night along you ain't been in that 20 minutes I said man I feel shy shouting happy I said I didn't need to be another longer girl I heard the dog man I'm nur dancing happy that's when I learned right then that I was already in the ministry amen now think what a mess I would have been in the very first day that I've registered in school where God registered in the classes and stuff I started out the door there they LRC has ended up to go back to the house and I think I had well what was it had I don't know 10 15 cents left and I went into the registrar's office Oh Lord I mean I was obeying God and I went into the Registrar's Office and she's sitting there filling out the papers of my registration and making out the bill for me and I do not have a cent to my name and I'm just sitting there I said Lord uh you remember I'll take care of you here yeah okay that's fine I really didn't care and at that point I didn't know how to roll that Carol on him but I literally was was walking under the domination and control of what he'd said to me because he was doing the work so I intend to just sit there until he ran me out she had a name plate right there and I said Miss Campbell may I make a telephone call I said I need to call my dad and it it I'll call him collect she said sure go ahead I couldn't think of nothing else to do so I called him he said where in the world are you I said I'm in the Registrar's Office at old Roberts University I just signed up for classes and I'm I'm in the registrar's oh he said well I've been hunting you all morning long he said somebody came by yesterday and gave me a check for you and he said I knew you needed it and he said I put it in your bank account but I let me said I've been trying to call you to let you know I said how much is it he told me the amount it was exactly what I needed to pay that to it should pay the court the first quarter of that tuition pay for my books after taking out my tithe and like I said I think I had something like 15 cents left like brother Hagin said it one time he said we're just going to get us a bar canyon go broke that's better where we work that day but I was you know I mean this is this is registration day well man I mean I'm I'm thrilled with this and so I'm walking out of the LRC I'm going to the house until glowy the wonderful news and I got out there and the Lord stopped me go upstairs that's no no no so I don't he said go up to the top floor I said no no and my feet stuck to the kind I had this happen twice in my life he hadn't had to do that since thank you sir I couldn't I couldn't move I said what is it he said go up to the top floor I said okay and my feet come undone so I turned around well there's six floors and so I went up to five because all the students had already been a Warren staff at sixth floor I got off of the elevator he had never this is 67 men the school's number three years old and I got off of that fifth floor at the LRC it was totally thinking there was not a stick of furniture in there and I got out and I walked around ain't nothing in there nothing I said well I guess I blew this and I turned around got back in the elevator he said I said go to the top floor I said sir I can't go up here that's the Vatican upper men I mean you get you okay you can guess what I don't know how come either think of that but that's what I said I said Yuki I can't go up there he said they all work for me go but he said what to do when I get there can you see this process in operation I'm hearing I'm literally seeing yes what the father is doing and I'm just taking it one step at a time by thing and so an elevator door open and I'm trapped you know usually there's a foyer or something where you can kind of stop and make up something anyway but the hell made her door open and there said Ruth rooks whose brother Roberts and sister Evelyn's lifelong secretary and of course I didn't know who she was back to then there she said her desk looking right at me and that door opens she wasn't far from here the two brother Keith and I don't know what I'm doing here and I walk on up to the desk she said may I help you well of course you know I'm oldest freshman in the world I mean I'm 30 years old she doesn't know when knowing I'm a student until uh you know told her I said I'm a student here I just registered today and I understand that this ministry uses airplanes and I'm a commercial pilot qualified and I need all the help I can get and I just wanted somebody to know she looked at me like you know like I just got out of the bus or something so she said she turned around she said well tell dr. Messick that well he's the Dean you know and he walks out there and and I talked I told him that and and he he was reading something and he kept reading it while I was talking he dis.n said well yeah yeah yeah turn around in left I said Lord all right this is it I said thank you very much I turned around and brother Roberts was standing right behind me and he's just much taller than me now I'm looking up here like it and he said I'm Oral Roberts I said ha ha ha ha he said do I understand you to say that you're a commercial pilot I said yes sir he said can you handle our airplane I said yesterday now think about the timing on this I'm wanting to go to the airport and get me a job flying for you know for some biscuit company or something or worse yet some booze outfit he said I started to hire a new co-pilot and the Spirit of God said no don't do it I have a student coming that's supposed to have that job now I want you to I want you to see what was happening in the background huh but the Lord for the sake of faith he will not tell you those things you don't even want to know those things because if there's anything gets you over into the natural it'll ruin even the plans of God because it's by faith you make connection to his plans and your future and he said you're my man and he turned around there to miss rooks and he said call brother DeWeese and tell him I found our co-pilot shook my hand turn on moco now on the second trip they call me over by the Colin Steele who was director of everything on the ground in those big meetings he called me over he said brother Kenneth now you're a grown man mature he said and you're already in the transportation department he said I want you to be brother Roberts driver he said this will free up a full-time employee for me and he said I believe you do a good job that yes sir only said now keep your mouth shut all right so I went and asked my boss brother Bob to wheeze I said tell me what to do about this he said keep him mouth shut he said don't when you around him don't ever initiate a conversation he said he doesn't talk when he's on a meeting he listens now listen I'm talking about this plan the words that I speak are not in mind whatsoever here it's the father dwells within me he does the work my father has shown me what am i safe what I must do huh when he's on a meeting he doesn't listen to people he keeps himself separate so that he can get directions from the Spirit of God duh that's the same process in operation he did what the father told him to do said what the father said for him to say and he got the same assist Jesus amen well now think I think about all of this I would have missed all that up with my stupid plan I had to get on that plan to get there and it's working all the time of course back that in I didn't understand it but God doesn't hold you responsible for as long as your your hearts open to him and you're willing to obey he's not holding you responsible for stuff you don't know but he does hold you responsible for finding out and inquire of him about everything don't be anxious about anything but in everything through prayer and Thanksgiving make you once no no no God so then that was this going along wonderfully well mr. Steele came around and said I I need you right after brother Robert finishes preaching and he gives invitation and he's going to turn all of those that answer the invitation he's gonna turn that over the brother due east and and he's going to give them instructions and pray for them and he said brother Roberts will come out from off of that platform he had a little little curtain there that had a table on it about size of this podium here just of the table and it had a basket full of prayer requests that had come in from partners he would walk in there while the anointing of that message was still on him and put his hands on that basket now that he's gone to heaven I can tell you something else that he did this was back in the days of microfiche now you kids don't know what Mike Rowe fed that's not a type of perch this was stuff that was reduced in size and put on film and you had to put it in a magnifying reader and slide that stuff by and and read things either that or just like today paper files would be to the ceiling he had all of his partner's names on microfiche and he would bring though he carried him with him and he would put them there in that stack if he didn't have those names on him they would already be in that that basket he would put his hands on those pray requests and put his hands on all of his partners names and under that anointing he would bless them and pray for them and then he would head over to the in Berlin room now he got about five to six or seven minutes there mr. CEO said Kenneth now what I want you to do he said you go in there during the service and you listened to the speakers in the inlet room these are these are people that are ambulatory and they couldn't manage them the crowds some of them right on the right at death's door and they're worth anywhere from fifty to all maybe a hundred hundred twenty people made and he said you go in there and you listen to the message in there and then you're going to have about five to six or seven minutes there before brother Roberts comes in and you go back over the major points of that message and prepare them to have hands laid on [Laughter] think about how I woulda missed that D like I could have been doing this for four years I hoped hitting there my very first night in the end of the room of course I'm taking down those points me neither yeah I'm really listening to the message and I just quickly went over there over the points remember the point of contact is when you make contact with your faith that's the point where you're going to release your faith then get up on the inside stand up on the inside do something if you can't move anything but your little finger because that's what it hurt brother Roberts saying it let's start moving that finger I just barely got through the points and he walked in the door well of course I stepped back out of the way he walked up there next to me look that room over and he caught me with his with his left hand he caught me by the shoulder of my coat only suit I had by the way any probably pulled me up next to he said now you're going to do the laying on of hands and you're going to do the praying I'm gonna pray for anybody and I could feel ya even felt the color running out of your pants first time in my life I truly felt like a white man I've been Indian all my life up till the end what I'm doing out huh I was pale face showing up oh he could see it cause he landed you know he pull me up eh he's gotten home I go he said no he said no we don't worry about it he said I'm gonna be standing right there next to he said you make a mistake said don't don't be afraid of me he said I'll help you I'll correct it for you well you know that helped me and so he surveyed the room right in front of us was this woman that hurt they brought her in there in an ambulance and her nurse was sitting there next to her she had she was on a little army cot thing she was so weak that when we walked over there to minister to her she she couldn't raise up under her own strength her nurse put her hand both hands under her back and and picked her up where she'd at least be up on her side and she no way she could have weigh 200 pounds I'd say probably 75 maybe 80 pounds just skin and bones tumor malignant tumor of the stomach and bless her little heart her boo her little tummy old pooch doctor like that you knowing the rest of her just skin and bone just death itself Shin we walked up there and I remember the thought come across my mind couldn't we walk work up to this one and and I thought no no no no he said he said not to be afraid of making a mistake then he says don't touch them till you're ready to release your faith well now all of this is taking place from about here to the front row there and I got up along here and I thought there's nothing and on the inside I said or Jesus I'm gonna pray in your name and I'm gonna release my faith on your now Oh your name is Mya point-of-contact that's when I released my faith when I speak your name well by the time I got over there I was feeling real good about this I was ready to do this thing I said in the name of G that's for the God I didn't quite get to her for it in the name of G from right here just quartering behind me oh you foul spirit attempting to take the life of my sister take your hands off God's property now in the name of Jesus who's I am and who my sir man I mean every hair on me standing at attention oh I'm telling the room was shaking under the power of God and all I can think of though the line of the tribe of Judah has roared she said ah and blew that stomach tumour out on the ground the bigger my fish had had tentacles hanging out under the Thames oh boy I'm like everybody out I'm in big ad you know I'm teddy that little woman said I am a heel praise God jumped up over that couch and here she went with her nurse chasing her right down behind a crate she's gonna die in a second ran around that room and we went on about our business I don't remember another one a minute all I remember is her she marked my life forever can you see how I could have messed this up can you see why God called me to go to the University it wasn't just about classes and so forth it of course that was involved I had to be discipline I was wilder than a goat I had no discipline about me and off hadn't been for my wife I would have known what to do I know the difference between Sikkim and come on just mad all the time anyway so what difference it make but God gave me a righteous woman praise God a man findeth a wife finds a good thing you know that word fine doesn't mean outlooking the word man it finds a wife the translator that's translation of the word appear when she appears glory appeared I wasn't looking I just opened the door to the suite where my dad in our state because I knew her her dad was coming to

years next month yes sir she ate out of it yeah amen let's read one verse of scripture then as the Lord leads will take up here in later services back to the Gospel of John we've closed with this please sixth chapter of John verse 63 it is the spirit that quickeneth the flesh profiteth nothing the words that I speak unto you our spirit and our life remember life to those that find them and medicine to all their flesh the words that I speak unto you are not my own but it's the father that dwelleth in me he does the works the words that I speak unto you parentheses that I didn't get myself their life and their spirit what are we waiting on let's take them yes put them in your eyes think about a prescription medicine in a bottle with the instructions on it take one each meal by mouth okay now it's not going to do you one bit of good to set that bottle of pills there at the breakfast table at the lunch table and the supper table memorize that label I mean I can tell you the phone number of the pharmacy now I got this thing yes what good's I'm going to do why are those instructions on there who put those instructions on there your doctor yeah but where'd he get it the manufacturer of that medicine through research and development has found the most expedient the the best and most effective way to put that medicine in the system in this case through the mouth it could have been dissolve under the tongue it could have been by patch it could have been a cream it could have been in the veins they're looking for the most efficient way for this to do its work you've got to get it in the system just thinking about it ain't gonna last week in November symptoms of the flu came on me man I attacked them I started poking all the healing scriptures well in that week I was supposed to go back to recurrent training which I did for that entire weekend a lot of hard work hard studying a lot of time in the simulator and 12-hour days and that kind of thing and I got a little better but then it had come back and gained a little and just but by Friday man I'm telling you by Friday I was I'm not doing well in fact bye-bye by the time school was over Friday afternoon I was sick and that's just I mean that ain't right that's just this area that it ain't supposed to be like this and I don't wait and just go on and on and on and on and on I'd already waited too long should have done this a week before but I'm busy now God helped me and by His grace it didn't interfere with my training by Friday afternoon my instructor is also very close friend and the dear brother and the Lord he said now to kill you don't feel like doing this medical science anything to him bad of it you could look at me into him you know that look how I've been rode hard and put up with so he said you know you you know you don't have to finish this he said we covered just about everything no I said one more session I that's fine and we went ahead and finished that and and I believe I did the best job of flying in that session in the simulator then I had done all week long and got out of there we're headed home got in the car and headed over to where the airplane was well and I told Duane I said man you don't have to fly this thing on your sons I take it out I'm I'm not going to do it I just laid down back there in the back man I'm telling you and I said Laura went through my healing scriptures quoted them script I got home went before the Lord I said sir you can't miss it your word can never ever be wrong I've missed it somewhere now I'm here again or my mother the same thing I did 46 years earlier shut up and listen I should have done the week before I heard this you remember in my word where it says my word is medicine to all your flesh we just got through read that I said yes sir I grabbed my Bible opened up there to it and I started reading down through there he said notice I said keep them before your eyes he said them the memory of a potato never nourished anybody he said you can remember what a potato looks like what it smells like what it tastes like but you have to take a bite of it to get it in this system in this case the physical system there is a nutrition system that that thing was designed to nourish and and it is supposed to come in through the mouth chew it up and swallow it that's really not based on what it tastes like it's based on what it's designed to do well I repented loudly and went right street and started back and started through all my healing scriptures on this I mind quoting them brother I'm looking him up I'll tell you I got over that in the twenty-third chapter of Exodus I like a record man he said serve the Lord your God and I will bless your bread and water and take sickness from the mid and the lay that length of your days I will fulfill I got shouting happy I hadn't been there 30 seconds men what I'm feeding it in my eyes I'm feeding it in what's happening my spirits finally getting some deep hey man well about 30 minutes later the symptoms go by the next day I'm feeling good well a couple of days later bro and I just gone to bed and she I know it was it was trying to get back on me I said no you don't and the end Gloria went rock I snow got up got my Bible and came back in that didn't get him didn't even get back bed I was laid the Bible down there on the edge of the bed and of course I told her what what had happened to me you know a couple of days before and then and she laid hands on men we agreed get it's over I went back and read those scriptures out loud and put my Bible up here like that she rolled over where she could see him I read through them went back read through himself bore our sicknesses carried our diseases I got over there in the curse of the law fever inflammation extreme burning well hey what's going on here can you see that written on that pill bottle take it through the eyes keep them in the midst of your heart confession is a few verses down the list there then he said get rid of a disobedient mouth ponder your feet you think about where you taking yourself it starts out with a tender my word incline your ear under my saying and then and put them in your eyes yeah I'm brother Copeland I don't start that amen the Great Physician has given us his medicine now we need to take it as prescribed now I still take my medicine of course that night it only took three minutes to get rid of them simply but they tried to come back the next night didn't take me 30 seconds and they were gone and they showed up since now what was happening over those days I was doing that twice a day I got up in the morning and took my medicine I took my medicine that night and took it again took it again and you know 30 minutes three minutes 30 seconds what's going on immunity vaccination spiritual induced immunity from sickness and disease I've been redeemed from the curse of inflammation and I went back and forth open Galatians 3:13 and go back

give the Lord praise and thanksgiving for it amen now take what we learned tonight about grace the word has commanded us to grow in grace he's able to make all grace abound towards us that's what God

Li and thank God it's scripture said he will do it what does that mean the spirit system the Sol system mind will and emotions the physical system we are an integrated being our generation knows more about that than any generation before us we are more understanding it because we not we've learned what integrated systems are they're all these different systems channeled into one operation to accomplish one or more duties centered and controlled by a computer but you get one system not functioning right and it affects all of the rest of it but that's what we are spirit soul body amen what am I talking about here what's the word is better way to say what is the word talking about what is Jesus talking about making us whole all working together all one piece all things work together for
