want you to say it out loud the Lord is good and his mercy endureth forever Hallelujah that's something else that we need we better not forget amen say it again the Lord is good and his mercy endureth forever how long forever forever aren't you glad the Lord is good praise God amen I remember a number of years ago I think I left my last church I passed in 1949 1949 through 1962 and over in the 63 I was strictly in the churches with what we call Revival meetings pastors would say to me you make it too easy for people to be saved I said no I didn't do it God did he put it on a gift basis you make it too easy they'd say for people to get healed I said no I didn't do that God did he put it on a gift basis you make it to I'm doing my pastors now you make it too easy for people to get the Holy Ghost I said no I didn't make it easy God did he put it on again all those are gifts all you got to do just receive gifts praise God brother or Roberts popularized a statement in those days saying God is a good god and I had Pastor after Pastor to tell me I wish he wouldn't say that and I said why isn't he a good God is he a good God or is he a bad God what kind of God is it well yeah yeah he's good all right but so that makes people think it's so easy I said Thank God it is hallelujah well say it again the Lord is good and his Mercy endure forever say it again thank you say it again [Music] one more time well if the Lord is good then God is a good god not a bad God a good God hallelujah I rejoice in it praise God you have your Bibles tonight open until the 118th psalm psalm 118. we're going to begin to read with the 19th verse and read down through the 24th verse Psalm 118 beginning to read with the 19th verse thank God for the word hallelujah 19th verse of the 118th psalm open to me the gates of righteousness I will go into them and I will praise the Lord this gate of the Lord into which the righteous shall enter I will praise thee for thou has heard me and art become my salvation the stone which the builders refused has become The Headstone of the corner this is the Lord's doing it's marvelous in our eyes this is the day which the Lord is made we will rejoice and be glad in it Hallelujah now we sing the course sometimes you know this is the day the Lord is made we rejoice and be glad in it and I think a lot of times people think about you know the the what day of the week it is you know Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday or Thursday or Friday or Saturday or Sunday and that's not what he's talking about at all amen he's not talking about some weekday or some particular day in that since this is the day which the Lord is made now notice the stone which the builders refuses become The Headstone of the corner that's talking about Jesus we'll look at scripture further along that line know the word day in the Bible is used very often not to talk about Monday or Tuesday or some day of the week but a specific time or specific period now again we use it the same way we talk about things that happen in grandma's day amen we talk about things you know some of we that's 39 and older we talk about yesterday we're talking about things that happened yesterday Sometimes some of we folks a little bit older talk about the the day of the Great Depression amen and it's hard for some of you young folks today to understand that and I tell some illustrations sometimes and sometimes some of the young folk can't believe it because see they didn't come up in that day and they don't understand a lot of things amen but I'll tell you the truth about it as a as a a little boy I've worked you know in a neighbor's yard and and weeded all the flowers and mowed the yard did all of for 10 cents one dime glad to get it I first started preaching out in the country I'm a great faith person you know I'm going to live by faith we never did receive an offering in our church never took up an offering for the pastor I'm just going to believe God you know we know we had a guest speaker of course you're obligated we would we didn't even have an offering plate we admire some man's hat and pass it for the special speaker but never received an offer one time I remember I needed three dollars and 30 cents don't sound big now but you see three dollars and 30 cents is over a half a week's pay because a dollar a day I mean I've worked many a day for a dollar I don't mean eight hours I mean from sun up to sundown for one dollar glad to get it and there were hundreds I don't mean it for dozens hundreds of men standing around on the streets that would have been glad to have find a job amen I mean a dollar a day a dollar a day amen amen but you know I I pastored that church started it another fella helped me we started it I pastored that church down in three years and and only one time in three years did I ever receive an offering I I was desperate I needed three dollars don't sound big like I said but you understand at a dollar a day that's over three days that's over half a week's pay and I gotta have this money on Monday well I just prayed about it but right in the middle of a song little redheaded woman it's just a Mary Hall played the piano and she stopped She didn't wait until she got the end of the verse she stopped right in the middle of a verse of Saul she's playing the piano just stop and jumped up off of the piano Dimension said blessed God I'm going to take up brother Hagin an offering if it hair lips the devil said the Lord told me he needs three dollars and something well it did you said you oh yeah I got it but then I left that church and I got a whipping you know the Lord doesn't always settle up every Saturday night amen he doesn't always settle up every first of the month he doesn't always settle up the first of every year but sooner a day sooner or later payday is coming and sometimes you know when payday comes it isn't a blessing the Lord began to deal with me and I mean he got rough with me he said I want you to go back to that church and I want you to ask them to forgive you you claim to be a great faith person you're just going to believe God let God meet the need but said you robbed the people you robbed the people you didn't teach him about giving you didn't teach him tithes and offerings and you robbed them see they can't be blessed amen see they can't be blessed unless they do what the Bible said do and you didn't teach him well I said Lord I I you know there's a pastor followed me there and he's there see this is a couple years after I'd left and I I can't he might think I'm wanting to come back and take the church over now he's got the same Holy Ghost I do you talk to him sure enough he began to talk to him and he wrote me a letter these were depression days we didn't have telephones I mean they were a luxury very few people out of telephone I didn't have one he didn't have one and so he wrote me a letter and said brother Hagin I don't understand it but he said it seems not the lord it's talking to me about you coming back and holding a Revival or preaching for us or something if you feel like it's God well just contact me so I wrote him back I didn't tell him oh yeah God's been talking to me for weeks about that he's given me well I just said okay you feel like that I'll I'll come and so if we went the first very first service on a Sunday night we started out the meeting I got up blessed God and apologized I'd ask the Lord to forgive me he forgave me it now I had to he told me you asked the people to forgive you and I asked them to forgive me and then I spent a whole sermon teaching or preaching on tithes and offerings Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah amen well thank God for the word and thank God for the Holy Ghost can you say Amen now it it you know I've had people because I said from we were we left our last Church in 1949 church will be pasting and for those years we were in churches holding meetings for 13 years and little better and uh I'm just there as a guest speaker I didn't take up any offerings they'd receive an offering from me because I am the guest speaker of course and so on and so forth and then the Lord said to me 1963. to go a little different route and to put on your own meat even if you go to a church he said don't just go hold them you go put on your own meeting take up your own offerings and uh I've had folks come and said well you were doing it wrong you ought to do it this way and I was in churches that they didn't receive offerings they they had a little bucket or something back at the door if anybody want to put anything in maybe that's what God said to them but I remember when Jesus said to me in 1950 when he appeared to be in that first vision and laid the finger of his right hand in the Palm Beach one of my hands and said I've anointed deed called in and only then give me a special anointing to minister of the sick he said at the end of that Vision which was about an hour and a half long Jesus finished his conversation with me and said be faithful fulfill your ministry for the time is short what somebody said that's 48 years ago yeah but the Bible said with the Lord a thousand years is a thousand as one day and one day is a thousand years so 48 years you know just about like that short you have to look at things from his perspective and so he said and turned and walked away just like you know holding a conversation with some man he walked three or four steps and turned around and came back and said to me there are two things to be careful about number one he said be sure that you always give all praise and all glory for everything that happens unto me that's the Lord Jesus Christ and to my name take no glory that's the reason I don't like people to introduce me Ken did that the other night once in a while they'll slip up on me sometimes people say you know what I mean because I'm just a servant of the Lord praise God doing the best I can to please him amen nothing big nothing great about me but there is something big and something greed about God hallelujah and about Jesus amen praise God hallelujah be sure be careful he said be sure you give all praise and honor and Glory unto unto me and my name and then he said number two be careful about money be careful about money many he said on whom I have called and placed my spirit called unto such a Ministry and face my spirit in an order them have become money conscious and have lost the anointing he said people we'll give money I mean that because many times people are with children that have the polio and thank God we've seen some of them heal and in curable that that give any amount of money for their healing but you make no charge for your ministry only receive offerings like you have been doing like you have been doing and so I've just followed the pattern all the years like I have been doing amen I I had a man one time and this is just one isolated incident but it happens you know I mean he took a water bill that big out of his pocket he wanted me to pray for his child I said put the money back in your pocket now I'll pray for your child free of charge you can't pay for God's blessing and if you're going to give me that money then I can't pray for the job take make no charge I I never told a church I got to have so much money or I require anything because he said make no charge for you Ministry well thank God for the word and thank God for the Holy Ghost amen Hallelujah I want to reiterate because God wants me to you see uh I Pastor there about three years approximately not quite three years and then two years afterwards five years God began to deal with me I had to straighten that up I you know when I say he gave me a whipping I mean talking to me you know words sometimes hurt worse than lashes do amen working you over and so you mean you need not think sometimes that you got by with certain things amen and you may have to go back and straighten up some things just like I did and in other areas as far as that's concerned but if you have to that's God just be just be a man about it and do it and if you're going to go on with God and walk in fellowship with him amen you're going to have to now you know actually I pastored nearly 12 years and not not the same church in Pentecostal circles they'd change churches about every year well I thought I did a good job I'll be honest with you man I left you know I thought I've done a jam up job pastor and about a couple of years later just like this case you know you know you grew up a little bit how many of you folks ever grown any you grew a little bit and you found out that you did a lousy job and I got so embarrassed I I was even been too embarrassed to go back and visit the church no thank god let's just do the best we can trust the Lord he'll see us through amen amen praise God all right let's look at her text and we'll charge you anything with that sometimes little side Journeys helps as much as anything amen the stone which the builders refused has become The Headstone of the corner this is the Lord's doing it is marvelous in our eyes this is the day which the Lord has made we'll rejoice in it see he's talking about the day when when the stone which the builders refused is become The Headstone of the corner Hallelujah the stone which the builders refused has become The Headstone of the corner this is the Lord's doing it's marvelous it's marvelous this is the day Hallelujah the Lord is made will rejoice and be glad in it now come over to the New Testament notice in that there are several instances for instance that say about the same thing that the four three of the four gospels you know Matthew Mark Luke and John but Matthew Mark and Luke Matthew the 21st chapter in the 42nd verse Luke the 20th chapter in the 17th verse and mark the 12th chapter and the 10th verse now all of them say about the same thing don't use the same words necessarily but it's the same thing now notice Jesus saith unto them did you never read in the scriptures the stone which the builders rejected the same is become the head of the corner now you see it says here in in the Psalms in King James version they refused well if they refused they rejected didn't it amen the same has become the head of the corner this is the Lord's doing and is marvelous in our eyes amen hallelujah now you could look up those three references and you'll find all of them say about the same thing now then coming over to the Acts of the Apostles the fourth chapter notice 11th verse this is the stone which was said at not of you builders which has become the head of the corner now notice the next verse the 12th verse neither is there salvation in any other for there is none other name under Heaven given among men whereby we must be saved Hallelujah so he's talking about the day of salvation isn't it now notice Ephesians the second chapter in the 20th verse Paul writing to the church at Ephesus talking about the church says and are built upon the foundation of the Apostles and Prophets now notice Jesus Christ himself being the chief Corner Stone Hallelujah Hallelujah now turn on over a little further in your Bibles to first Peter notice something that he said in the second chapter of First Peter we're going to read the fourth fifth and sixth verses to whom coming as unto a living Stone disallowed indeed of men but chosen of God Hallelujah and precious ye also as Lively stones are built up a spiritual house and holy priesthood to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God by Jesus Christ wherefore also Hallelujah it is committed in the in the scriptures behold I lay in Zion a Chief Cornerstone elect precious and he that believeth on him shall not be confounded I just read all of those scriptures to you to see that he's talking about praise God not some day of the week but a day Hallelujah Jesus is the Chief Cornerstone amen and this day is a day of salvation we read that verse there in Acts 4 11. amen about this is the stone which was said it not you'll notice you have three different Expressions as he was refused it says he was rejected it says he was said it not well not just another way of saying the same thing amen of you builders but he is become the head of the corner and there is salvation no salvation in any other name none other than his praise God so then this is the day of salvation glory to God we will rejoice and be glad be glad now you just wonder about some people whether they're saved or not they always look so sad amen but this is the day glory to God the day of salvation amen Paul said writing to the Romans you remember in Romans the first chapter of the sixth verse for I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Christ for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth to the Jew first also the Gentile of the Greek praise God now in this word salvation you'll notice in the Scofield bible Mr Scofield brings out in the footnote that the Greek and Hebrew words for salvation imply he says the ideas of Deliverance safety preservation healing and soundness glory to God glory to God so it's a day of salvation that word salvation is an all-inclusive word praise God thank God it is a day of Deliverance it is a day of Deliverance it is a day of safety it is a day of preservation Hallelujah I'll tell you you look at some Christians I've gone to churches particularly in Years Gone by I've gone to churches and by looking at the congregation they all look so sad they all look like you know that they had you know if they had any friends they'd lost all of them you you'd think by looking at them that they were pickled put up in vinegar but the Bible never said a word about the Saints being pickled the Bible said that they're preserved glory to God hallelujah and in this word salvation also as Mr Scofield even admitted he amen healings in it glory to God Amen it's a day of Deliverance it's a day of safety it's a day of preservation it's a day of healing it's a day of soundness Hallelujah Hallelujah glory to God can you say Amen this word salvation as Mr Schofield points out is the great inclusive word of the Gospel gathered into it all Hallelujah all that it implies all of its hours then can you see amen Hallelujah thank God so this is a day day of salvation day of healing this is the day I'll rejoice and be glad in it you know actually because of the low degree of faith because the folks have not been adequately taught well we have to have healing services and pray for the Satan Minister healing but if folks really knew the truth they don't need to have anybody to pray for them amen if they would know the truth and act upon the truth praise God because this is a day of healing well if it's the day of healing then you don't have to question is it God's will is it God's plan because this is the day this is the day now it's the simplest thing in the world if you you know what I mean to get people healed it's an easiest thing in the world if you can just get them to listen to you the Bible said concerning Jesus in The Gospel of more than once talks about the multitudes that came to hear him it says they came to hear and to be healed now see a lot of people come to be healed but they don't come to hear but hearing and healing go together amen praise God now for instance I was preaching a meeting right here in Oklahoma in 1950. well the Lord had just appeared to me a few days before in that Vision in Rockwall Texas and I've had all these ministered to this even as a Baptist I got people healed and baptist boy preacher praise God I got people healed by laying on our hands and going in with oil and so on and and teaching them to believe but then you can minister with anointing but yet people still have to believe amen and so I was administering with the anointing but you know you preached for an hour and give an altar call then minister to the sick on a one-to-one basis and uh you get tired and when you get tired it's difficult to yield to the Holy Ghost in fact a lot of times the anointing will just live from you in other words it's like a it's like a bird sitting on your shoulders you fly away and so I went so far and then the anointing lifted it see because the Lord said you're having an awning to do something doesn't mean that the anointing is in manifestation all the time now preachers pastors preachers teachers getting anointed to preach and teach but the anointing is not in manifestation all the time for if it was you'd be preaching 24 hours a day amen but you see you prepare yourself and believe God and anointing comes and when it lifts you ought to shut up but most of us don't might as well say Amen so anyway amen but I'm ministering to the sick you see I'm taking them one by one now in the smaller meetings you can do that you'll get a bigger percentage of them healed if you'll do it amen but in big meetings like this you you know because we're just going to be here one week you couldn't do that see I'd hold meetings sometime in fact I got to the place I wouldn't accept a meeting less than three weeks and I'd hold meeting three four five six seven eight and I think one nine weeks well you've got plenty of time I remember one fellow came that was deaf now it took me 45 minutes just with that one man but I got both ears open 10 years later showing me still healed glory to God I said glory to God glory to God now I'll let you in on a secret with a small Church you could do it with a big church you couldn't uh but yeah you've heard me say and sometimes we need to qualify the statement because people can misjudge it put their own interpretation down you've heard me say that in 12 years of pastoral work my wife and I never did bury one church member now I never thought of that but in one of our seminars my wife answered said honey while you were teaching this morning it just dawned on me in 12 years we never did bury one church member well I went back and looked over my records and in 12 years time I had only either preached or assisted in seven funerals that's all and they were either somebody that's kin to somebody that's in my church are there somebody that used to be a member of that church years before and moved away before I ever came and they passed away he brought him back there to bury him you see well now that doesn't mean that folks are not going to die because because he didn't promise it wasn't going to die I'll take sickness away from the midst of you the number of your days you'll fulfill but now in church either seldom in church now I'm talking about Sunday morning Sunday night and Wednesday night and for the first number of years 1937 for instance the 1943 I'm strictly a preacher I I don't teach I don't like to teach but then a teaching gift fell on me I know when it came three o'clock in the afternoon praise God I knew exactly it's just like somebody come along you know how to how to cloak and children on you and I stopped dead still I was right in the middle of the living room in my house and I said I know what that is that's a teaching anointing now I can teach four never didn't like the teeth boy I'm preaching I'm a preaching amen amen praise God so I strictly preached but in church I'm very seldom publicly taught or God didn't do any teaching at all those years but preached on the subject of faith or even preached on the subject of healing their Sheldon very shouted preached on other subjects but you see if somebody in my church is sick and I don't remember ever having to it once most of the time just one person I can devote my full time I I've talked for two and a half hours to that one person same thing I teach on faith to Daisy but sharing with him personally and and just go back to see them every day sometimes and and get them okay you locate people what to say they're not in position to receive healing sometimes you had to talk about a dying and talk them into living because you're not going to get somebody healed and you're believing for healing them believing they're going to die and talking about I'm gonna die and sometimes it would take you weeks to do it the same person and that's the reason I said if I could if I could on a one-to-one basin deal with people most of the time I'd get them healed now once in a while the Lord will show you I mean why they won't get healed not not that it's not his will it is his will for them to be healed all the time but you see you can forfeit your right to God's best are you out there you're going home amen amen praise God by failure to discern the Lord's body now you remember there in the 11th chapter talking about the communion for this cause for this cause many Paul's right to the church at Corinth many in the church at Corinth same thing would be in the church until so wherever many for this cause many are weak and sickly and sleep that is their bodies asleep in the grave Spirit going to be a floor now for what cause not rightly Discerning the Lord's body for this cause see there's a Cause church people Christian I'm talking about really born again Spirit-filled people people that know the truth some folks are sick just because they don't know what the Bible teaches but there is a Cause Paul says the main cause is not Discerning the Lord's body now that has a two-fold option two-fold application first of all discern the fact that his body was broken for our physical sustenance with his stripes were healed see you can take the Lord's Supper that's when you take that bro and break that bread that's a type of the broken body you take the the juice that's a type of the blood of Jesus that washes away your sins well you can do that all day but if you don't discern see and know the fact amen you'll stay sick secondly you need to discern that the Lord's body is the church and it's one and walk in love towards fellow members for this cause many are weak and sickly among in many sleep now you could really get to do in the little Medlin here real easily amen I said amen amen discern the Lord's body and walk in love towards fellow members in the days of the voice of healing the leading evangelist the voice of healing he had the biggest hint in fact he had an aura told me or Robert told me said he called him because he had his private home phone number called him at four o'clock in the morning said oh I got a bigger tent than you do I just put in an extra extra uh sex you know seat two more thousand I mean he'd seat up to 20 000 people and the Lord said to me you go tell him that he's going to die unless he judges himself and the main thing is to judge himself on was love and walk in love Jesus said to me towards a fellow Minister 37 35 years old at 38 years old he's dead because he didn't do it didn't discern the Lord you have to be careful you have to be careful Walk In Love I am I came here to Tulsa and I never been here to visit I'd pass through traveling but I came at the invitation the Full Gospel businessman in 1963. three and uh you know days of the charismatic move the nomination of people's interested in the Holy Ghost so I came and spoke to a chapter meeting van grit in the Old Mayo Hotel and then they wanted me to stay over five nights and teach on the Holy Ghost just not to teach on the Holy Ghost and these charismatic seeking the Holy Ghost when we got started and couldn't stop and ran down what was eight weeks Hallelujah when the Assembly of God pastors told me said every penny comes to church in town got members out of that meeting every one of them well thank God for that well now we moved here to Tulsa then in 1966 we bought brother Osborne's old office building over here on North Utica and we put a little Auditorium in there seat about 300 and about every three months sometimes well four times a year and one time we had five brother Ken Copeland that's where he got acquainted the ministry we'd have a seminar people who come in now I recognize that these people that are coming are are church people see these are similar they're not a value men they're not designed to win the Lost thank God we need to win the laws but we need teachers too don't we we need seminars too don't we amen I recognize that these people are coming from the churches you see and come in sometime as a result of the meeting that I had here three years before you have to be careful the way you handle other people's sheep born I know folks are here to get quiet one Baptist pastor down in Texas said you know Jesus one time there's a great storm on he just stood on board the ship said peace be still and there's a great calm you said no matter what's happening in church if you want a great calm just go to preaching on tithes or people's children and there'll be a great call will you get in some of these areas now we we would have like I said the seminar but I constantly told people this is not a substitute for church this is only an assist you need you need your local church I never took up any special offerings for any special project except one time we enlarged the little Auditorium and we had to put a steel beam in to support the walls and so on and it cost quite a bit and I we didn't have the money the Lord said to me go ahead and do it just borrow the money and do it and then during the meeting tell the people that's the only thing I didn't have any special projects I had some but I didn't take up anyway because I'm dealing with someone else's sheep not mine and I'd encourage him you support your own we don't receive an offering all right but you support your own church first well that way you got along with every Pastor you see amen now now you know we in in this in this move this word of faith if you want to call it that actually just the Bible but in Kenneth Hagin Ministry of rainbow Bible Training Center Rhema Ministerial Association because you see we've got you know over two thousand preachers that some of them line up with others but that's all right wherever God leads him and show them into churches but we're growing enough now that people are coming you know in and starting another church in your town or sometime City well I've been through that I've been in the ministry 64 years and I've been through that before you know I've had people to say you know here here's a city of 50 000 people I'm thinking one right now and somebody else come in and started to work of the same group you see this is my town but how many of you run 300 what are they 49 700 people there that you're not touching amen you ought to be glad but that man that's coming in going to start a church there doesn't need just to come in Undercover and slip in you know like a Sly Fox he or to come and talk to you I'm talking about when they're the same family particularly and say the Lord's leading me here how can we work together how can we be a blessing to one another amen the Bible teaches us that we're laborers together with the Lord amen another pastor said to me in fact I uh I I was during World War II went to his particular town a little bigger place not real big but do a little chop it I ran into him on the street see I saw him coming he looks sad he got a long face we greeted one another and then I said to him what what what's what's the problem he hadn't said anything but you tell but looking at it well he said brother so and so fellow Christian Fellow Minister the same group brother so and so he's done me wrong well I said what did he do well he's come here to my town started another church I said he had yeah well he's way down the south end of town wasn't very close to him I said I want to ask you a question I said the year before he came and started this church what did you average the year before in Sunday school he said 112. I said this year he came this year see what have you averaged 113 I said how many thousands of people are they here thousands of them you not reach it you ought to pray God and start one in the west part time one in the East part of town amen praise God but when I was standing on the street he said brother Kenneth I want you to pray for him he said I've got ulcers of the stomach well sure he did I prayed violated hands on him right there on the street but I didn't tell him you know you want to be nice I might as well just leave hands on him said twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what you are he'd done just as much good I saw him at the convention then he he went ahead and had an operation for ulcers but I saw him at the convention he stopped me in the hallway and said would you pray for me he said you know I had that operation but the altars have come back on me I noticed this he never did get healed of his ulcers till he got straightened out with his brother I saw him again he still I mean over a purity of two three years he's under that load I said to him again I want to ask you a question how many are you running now since he came see a couple years later in Sunday School oh we run anywhere from 245 to 270. he's over twice as big as he was I said what's what's he running down in the South Park there well I'm sorry to say he's a beating us he's a running up well up to 290 and 300 occasionally I said you ought to be rejoicing before he came here you was reaching about a hundred people kids and all just a little over 110 112 113. now then both of you together are reaching about 600 people glory to God the kingdom of God is one you are to pray that God and send somebody to the other part of town and somebody to the north part of town Hallelujah Hallelujah but then when he got straightened out with his brother he got it healed of his ulcers I'm saying that this is a day of healing but sometimes he's a Cause I said sometimes there's a Cause amen don't try to build on the other fellas members get your own don't be a sheep Thief now I Pastor down in East Texas they were three churches three miles to my West was another church of the same Full Gospel denomination three miles to my East was another church So within six miles there were three of us people came right by those churches to my church people live right around my church I mean next door to my church another family to live right across the street in front of the parches went to one of the other chairs they didn't come by they'd come hear me on Thursday night when one of these fellas said brother again I told my wife because gasoline's a ration she's during the war all we got to do just walk across the street go in the side door this is this just changed churches no no I said you don't do that come on Wednesday Thursday night if you want to they had Wednesday night or we had a Revival because but I said they need you I happen to know that he was one of the best financial supporters they had I said don't you do it no don't you join this church another family that lived beside the parsonage she's over that Vision one day my mom and I said I just told JD let's just join brother hagin's Church well I said no you're not going to join my church well why I said well first of all I don't want you talking about me like you do your pastor no you just stay where you are find me another couple that lived on the same street he said to me brother again I've talked to my wife and we want to join change churches join yours well I knew he had some problems and I didn't tell him but God had spoken to me and told me just exactly how to help him but I said I'll talk to your pastor and if it's all right with him so I talked to his pastor and his Pastor said brother Hagin I hate to lose her she's the best member in my church the most productive lady head of the missionary Department Sunday school teacher but I don't know why some way another I never have been able to get along with him I'm going to insist that you take him I said unless you do I'm not going to well I noticed this I notice at 81 I'm still alive and hopping real good and these fellas that didn't operate in love are all dead are you still out there say Amen if you can if you can't say oh me this is the day of salvation say it out loud this is the day of healing Hallelujah glory to God now let's go a little bit further this is not only the day of salvation Deliverance healing this is the day of Dominion Romans the 6th chapter the 14th verse said sin shall not have dominion over you for you're not under the law but under grace now it wouldn't do it would not be an injustice to that scripture to read it like this Satan shall not have dominion over you Satan shall not have dominion over you Hallelujah for you're not under the law thank God but unto Grace glory to God turn to Colossians the first chapter 12 and 13 verses giving thanks unto the father Colossians chapter 1 verse 12 and 13. giving thanks unto the Father which has made us meet that's a little blind to us another time they said he's made us able to be partakers of the inheritance of the Saints in life who hath that is the father hath delivered us in that word salvation is the word Deliverance delivered us from the power of Darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of his dear son Hallelujah now the Amplified translation reads the father has delivered and drawn unto himself out of the control and Dominion of Darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of the son of his love whoa I like that don't you Amplified let me read it again the father has delivered and has drawn us you see to himself out of the control and Dominion of Darkness and is transferred us into the kingdom of his love now the father or let's put it this way look at Colossians 2 15 Turn the Page here we read this the other night 15th verse talking about Jesus and having spoiled principalities and Powers he made a show of them openly triumphing over them in it Hallelujah now again let's read Amplified on that God disarmed the principalities and Powers arrayed against us and made a bold display and public example of them Hallelujah in triumphing over them in him and in it another translation reads he disarmed the principalities and Powers which fought against him another translation reads he exposed them shattered empty and defeated in his final glorious Triumph [Laughter] Hallelujah Hallelujah now back up to Ephesians you're a familiar with this prayer in Ephesians that Paul prayed for the church at Ephesus in this very first chapter he says in the 16th verse cease not to give thanks for you in other words I cease not to give thanks for you making mention of you in my prayers that the god of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of Glory that's who he is the god of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of Glory may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and Revelation in the knowledge of him now here's a church that's born again in spirit filled but evidently they don't have this revelation if they had it he wouldn't have to be praying for him to get it would he amen and give it to him the eyes of your understanding being enlightened that you may know what is the hope of his calling and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the Saints and what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us would who believe according to the working of his mighty power which he wrought in Christ when he reads him from the dead and set him in his own right hand into Heavenly places far above everybody say far above all principality and power and might and dominion and every name this name not only in this world but also in that which is to come and hath put all things under his feet and gave him to be the head over all things to the church which is his body we're the body of Christ he's the head where is your feet you got to defeat in your head no he's put all things under his feet that means under our feet Hallelujah this is the day of dominion glory to God which is his body the fullness of him that filleth all in all now let's go on reading here you know this that Paul did not write a letter to the Ephesians in chapter and verses man divided in chapters and verses for reference sake so as you go on reading he's still talking about the same thing that he talked about in this Revelation that he prayed that they would get and you hath he quickened that is made alive who were dead in trespasses and sins where in time past she walked according to the course of this world according to the prince of the power of the air the spirit that now worketh in the children of Disobedience among whom also we all had our conversation manner of life or conduct in times past in the lust of our flesh fulfilling the desires of the Flesh and of the mind and where by Nature the children of Wrath even as others but God but God who is Rich in Mercy for his great love wherewith he loved us even when we were dead in sins has quickened Made Alive us together with Christ by grace are you saved and has raised us up together and made us sit together in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus now you ready you got your shot and close on look at that next verse that in the ages ages ages not the age ages eons upon eons of time but that in the ages to come he might show the exceeding Riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus now did you get that I remember a number of years ago I heard this story I got into Pentecostal ranks you should call them Pentecostals tongue talkers and holy rollers Holy Rollers well this dear lady filled with the Holy Ghost faithful to go to church and her neighbor later is always making smart remarks you know and needling her so she came out back in those days women wore hats you know my wife had so many hats you go to Convention you live the whole back end full of hats I'm so glad they changed all of that amen but she came out all dressed up with a hat on you know going to church and uh started down the sidewalk and this other lady was out in the yard you know and she come up you know to me well I guess you're going to that Holy Roller tongue talking church this lady said nah I'm going to the show now wholeness people didn't go to shows I'm talking about fixture shows but see what she had in mind is he's going to put on a show that he might show in the ages to come we're going to show Hallelujah we we we're just rehearsing now we're just rehearsing now glory to God [Music] [Laughter] amen that in ages to come he might show the exceeding Riches of his grace in his kindness towards us through Christ Jesus everybody said out loud I'm going to the show Glory Hallelujah glory to God blessed be the name of the Lord the only way that helps you or not but I've done it again to preach me happy Hallelujah go into the show that'd be a good sermon for you pastors amen this this life is just a dress rehearsal we're getting ready for it day this is the day the Lord's made say it out loud this is the day the Lord's made it's a day of salvation it's a day of healing it's a day of Dominion under my feet under my feet glory to God Thou shalt tread upon the serpents they add in the young minds glory to God hallelujah now notice that it's also a day of gladness and rejoicing notice you go back there to that 118th Psalm notice what he said this is the day that the Lord has made we'll be glad and rejoice in it we'll be glad and rejoice in it praise God forevermore Hallelujah notice again here here in in joah the second chapter you know here it tells us about and Peter on the day of Pentecost quoted a part of this second chapter about this is that when the Holy Ghost was poured out but notice what he said in the 21st verse of the second chapter of Joel fear not o land be glad be glad and rejoice for the Lord will do great things 23rd verse he said be glad then you children of Zion Hallelujah and he went on down in the last verse of the chapter after he talked about you know what you come to pass in the last days I poured out my spirit upon All Flesh and so on it shall come to pass it whosoever shall call the name of the Lord shall be saved or delivered for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be Deliverance as the Lord is said hallelujah praise God he's talking about the day in which you and I are living can you say Amen now notice again in the 12th chapter of Hebrews he writing to the Hebrew Christians said that we not come unto Mount Zion you know and so terrible was the sight that Moses said I exceededly fear and Quake 21st verse notice 22nd verse But Here Come unto Mount Zion year come unto Mount Zion not Mount Sinai but Mount Zion well what is this about Zion and unto the city of the Living God the heaven of Jerusalem and to an innumerable company of angels to the general assembly and Church of the first Barn which are written in heaven and to God the judge of all and to the spirits of just men made perfect and to Jesus the mediator of the New Covenant and to the blood of sprinkling that speaketh better than that of Abel Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah now then again you notice when we noticed it before I'm talking about this as a day of gladness and rejoicing praise God that 126 Psalm when the Lord turned again the Captivity of Zion well you see Zion can apply to us we just prove that we were like them the dream then was our mouth filled with laughter and her tongue was singing then said they among the Heathen the Lord's done great things for them notice the next verse the Lord has done great things for us where off we are sad what glad glad glad no wonder Paul wrote to the church at Philippines Philippians 4 4 and said praise rejoice in the lord always and again I say rejoice to the Thessalonians he said Rejoice Evermore Evermore that means all the time glory to God hallelujah hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah when the Lord turned again the Captivity of Zion we were like them the dream then was our mouth filled with laughter Hallelujah full of heart laughter laughter and our tongue was singing glory to God glory to God glory to God the Lord's done great things for us wherever we're glad Hallelujah Hallelujah amen then was our mouth filled with laughter now you can laugh in faith you may not feel like laughing but then press God the anointing can come on you and you can't harm to keep from laughing amen I was conducting a meeting down in South Texas a number of years ago gone off to bed I stayed my wife was home with the children they were in school and I was traveling alone I stayed in the postage with the pastor and his wife and I got off to bed got off to sleep at about 1 30 I was awakened and I had the most alarming heart symptoms because you see I had been given up to die because of heart problems years before and and I know the symptoms all of them had come back and the devil said he said how to say to your mind the thoughts he puts thoughts in your mind well now this is one time you're not going to get healed no you should go into the doctor because they've already told you told you back there then they can't help you nothing can be done you're going to die well now what are you going to do about a case like that I mean these thoughts come floating in faster than machine gun bullets can fly well I didn't want to arouse the passages they were down the hall and in their room it's winter time and the door shut I just pull the cover up over my head and started laughing did you feel like that no I didn't feel like laughing did you have a lot no I didn't have any laugh I put it on I put it on just like this just kept on how long I don't know it's dark I got my head covered up but now at a time like that you know a few a little while seem like 10 minutes I don't know how long it was but it seemed like it was and the devil said again so how do you say thought amen what are you laughing about I said I'm laughing at you what are you laughing at me about I said you said I'm not going to get here that's right that's right this is one time you're not going to get healed uh she went back to laughing you feel like that no man with all these heart problems you don't feel like laughing I'm just laughing in the flesh putting it on I kept on till he asked me what do you left I said I already told you once already told you once I'm laughing at you you know the devil don't have to be laughed at let's read the devil tries to keep you from laughing well now that laughing business that's going too far I can't find anything like that in the scriptures you wonder bless God if they ever went to school to learn how to read when the Lord turned again to captivity of Zion then was our mouth filled now you can fill it with laughter yourself or the Holy Ghost can fill it with laughter but if it's full and filled it's going to run over that means you're going to do it you're going to lie [Laughter] what do you laughing about laughing at you what are you laughing me about you said I'm not going to get healed I immediately started laughing again and I laughed till he said again what do you laughing but I said I already told you twice laughing at you why are you laughed me about you said not going to get healed I said fourth time he said what are you left but I said I've already told you three times I'll tell you again laughing at you what are you laughing at me about you said I'm not going to get here that's right this is one time you're not going to get healed I sewed the cover off my head turn the light on the Bible saying grabbed it I opened it up to First Peter 2 24 said Mr devil I don't know whether you can read or not but in case you can't I'm going to read this to you who his own self by our sins and his own body on the tree that we being dead to sins shall live under righteous by whose Stripes ye were by whose Stripes you were healed I said I'm not trying to get healed I don't expect to get healed Jesus already got it for me he already got it he's already got it and what he got's mine you never saw anybody Scurry around so fast in your life together up all their symptoms and take off and now then you thought I forgot it but didn't back to 1950. so I'm ministering under the anointing but the anointed lifted well I'm going to lie to people I said folks I can't I can't minister to you under the anointing because the anointing lifted now if you can't come back tomorrow night because I'll make preparation you know to be ready for
