(Starting at the beginning of his talk.)
How are you all doing? It seems like you are doing ok. Jesus. What if we get aggressive? Is that alright? I might just get aggressive with you all. We’ll see. I’ve been taking my time to see how you all respond. You seem to be doing alright. This is the third day for me to be here, I think. I don’t know how far I’m going to get, because I feel something happening to me. So I’m going to report to you right in the beginning that it’s not my fault.
1 John chapter 3. I haven’t been finishing these verses that I’ve been starting with you all. So just fill in the blanks. Just start with your most extreme imagination and you will still be too low. Ok? Those verses that I’ve been giving you, and the things I haven’t completed on them, start with your most extreme imagination and you will still not reach high enough. Because my Bible says that whatever things I can think about, Jesus is going to do greater. And I have a pretty serious imagination. I can just sit and think of Jesus taking over countries, and everybody getting saved and everybody getting healed, and having a wonderful time with the Holy Ghost. So it’s going to be fun isn’t it?
I’ve been talking to you all about some new terms (words). Loyalty, commitment, and those kinds of things. Responsibility and discipline. So I want to talk about that for a minute. Just from the very beginning to talk about something serious. Everything I’ve been telling you all is coming from a “lifer’s” (a person that is committed to something for their entire life) perspective. Ok? I don’t even understand an ego (selfish attitude) that would think you are accomplishing something just because you are going to the mission field because you are an American, and because you go somewhere for 2 to 3 weeks that you are going to save the world. Jesus came, gave his entire life for it, then died for it. That was His opinion about how to save the world. So I suggest to you - whatever your branch of ministry is, that is not important to me, although it is to you and God and the Kingdom of God, that is not what I am angry about. I am angry about résumés and selfish attitudes. There are nations burning in hell today because of selfish attitudes and résumés. Ok?
We really do want you to come, and those of you that can, you are welcome to come and see. Short-term missions are for the purpose of finding out the will of God for you, not for building a résumé. Short-term is for the purpose of learning from people that have experience, so that you can become a “lifer” (person with a lifetime commitment to ministry) and change a nation for God. Ok? So I don’t understand why every time I come up here after a year or two, you have all these new “sayings” (new church words and phrases that have no meaning outside the church) and I have to first learn them all and then get them defined. But every two years when I come up here, all I get are new terms because everything else is the same. I’m not any better than anybody else. I’m just a person that enjoys getting on an XR-600 Honda motorcycle, and going out to where nobody else has ever been as a missionary and telling the people there that Jesus is King. That is all I do, and that is what I like to do. So I want to encourage you. Now, what I am about to say next, I mean (am being literal about) every word of it.
I have a dog named JJ. Very few of you have heard of the kind of dog that he is. He is a “leopard-spotted Catahoula cur”. I have many of those kind of dogs. But I have this male dog that is my friend. J.J. weighs about 54 kilograms. He is just as aggressive in the dog world as I am against the devil in the human world, and he is very serious about winning any fight. Just like me. I had to leave him in our office during my trip to the United States and he is getting lonely and wants to go back to Mexico, just like I do. The other day, I got back to the office with a new truck, a 900kg Ford, and I took the dog and told him, “This white Ford truck is my truck.” So he smelled the tires and walked around the truck. I opened the driver’s door and told him to get inside, so he jumped up inside the truck. I told him, “This is where I will be driving, dog.” Then I had him get out of the truck. Then I went to my wife’s side of the truck and had him get up in there. I told him, “This is my wife’s side of the truck, dog.” Then I took him around to the rear seats, and told him, “This is where my kids will be getting in and out of this truck, dog. This is our truck. That makes it your truck.” I was talking to the dog just like I am talking to you right now. That dog looked at me - I’ve got witnesses over here - he looked up at me, of course he can’t say anything, he ran around to the back of the truck and jumped up in there, and you could not get him out of it. Isn’t that amazing? There were several people that tried… including my oldest son, who is 25 years old and a big boy, as big as me. He went back and said, “Come here dog!” That dog just growled at him. That dog is loyal to me to the death. That dog stayed in the truck for a long time. He may still be in there. If I had to go somewhere with the truck, I’d tell the dog to get out and he would jump out and then jump back in again. He obeyed me, but just for a second, then he’d get right back in. Listen! Even animals understand loyalty and commitment, and their proper place (or status). But we modern Christians don’t understand that stuff. “We’re free.” No, you’re rebellious. “I’m following Jesus!” No, you’re not. You are sectarian (dividing the church into little groups).
Church, listen to me. If an old dog can understand and be taught by the Holy Ghost what I want, surely we can be taught by the Holy Ghost what God wants. Isn’t this true? I’m impressed with that concept because I don’t see it happening in the church. I hear new terms and phrases and see different manifestations, but where is the loyalty, where is the commitment, where is the zeal to have the greatest crown of all from the King? I see plenty of zeal to get “my ministry” going. Firstly, you don’t own anything; you were bought with a price. Ok?
I can tell you greater things. I was walking in the jungle one day. My old truck broke. I was walking through the mud of the jungle and it is raining monsoon (huge amounts of rain all at once for a long time). I wasn’t enjoying it and I was wishing it were you there instead of me. I am trudging (going slowly and with difficulty) through the mud to a village that I promised I would preach in. It will take me all afternoon to get there, then I will have to preach there, and sleep there, then hike the next day to get to the next village, all because my truck broke. So, I’m hiking along this trail through the mud and rain and wind and lightning, and I hear the sound of a motor coming up the trail. I though to myself, “Who else could be out here? I’m the only one who ever comes out here.” And then up drove a “Carte Blanca” truck; a beer truck. They had the newest equipment available, 4-wheel drive, about a 2700 to 3600kg truck loaded with beer. I and prayed, “Lord, please touch these demons hearts to let me have a ride.” They were plowing through that mud with their strong engine, and when they go to me, the driver turned his wheel on purpose and mud covered me. That made me very hostile, of course. And I knelt down in that mud and I told Jesus “Look, kill me - I don’t care. Run me until I’m exhausted - I don’t care. But it isn’t God for the devil to have better equipment than me.” Your used shoes - keep them (sometimes Americans send their old clothes and stuff to missionaries). You just wear them out; I don’t want them. I’ll probably just burn them. Ok?
And the Holy Ghost didn’t say a word to me. I was alone and weeping, and I finished my mud-covered journey to the village. The Indian women brought me a bucket and a rag, and I cleaned myself. I was very wet and they took my clothes and dried them while I preached the gospel. Then the next day I walked out in the mud to the next village, and kept walking. But ever since that day, the Lord Jesus has given me a new 4-wheel drive, the best civilian vehicle there is. At lest one, sometimes two, and occasionally three per year. I never know where they are coming from. I figure that in the last 20 years, I have had about 25 to 27 new trucks. I usually drive them a bit to get the problems worked out, then get new accessories for them to help them in the jungle, then give them to one of the guys I work with. Because me and Jesus have this agreement: I go, He goes with me, and we both ride in my new truck. (13:48)
Alright? Jesus is with you. Jesus is with loyalty. Jesus is with responsibility. Jesus is with commitment. Jesus is with discipline. Anything else, He’s not with it. “I want power!” Get discipline, you’ll get power. “I want to minister!” Get loyalty, He’ll let you minister. “I want a nation!” Get responsibility, He’ll give you many nations.
1 John, chapter 3. I am ready to tell you some things now that are going to test your ability to believe. Not whether I can do it, but whether you can. I can do it. Jesus is with me. But I have got to, somehow, get you to understand that He is just as much with you as He is with me. There is absolutely zero difference between us. Probably - I’ve been telling you this all week - you are smarter than I am, I know that. You’re prettier. You have better…I feel so incapable and inadequate about being up here. And in myself, that is the truth, but in Jesus that is not the truth. Verse 8, “He that commits sin is of the devil.” People ask me all the time “Why are you so quick to call things “devils”? Well, anything that is sin is a devil. It says so right there, in my Bible. “The devil sinned from the beginning.” Now this last phrase is one of the most popular, most powerful things that exist. Why did Jesus come here? “To save humanity.” Jesus came here for the purpose of destroying the works of the devil. Where does Jesus live? In us! Your job in life is to destroy the works (acts) of the devil. Do you understand that? Do you understand that? Look, a while back, probably less than a year, there was a plague that came through our area of Mexico and it is called “sarampión negro” (black measles). This is going to test your faith, and I’m happy that I get to do that. It swept through a village and thousands of people died. Thousands and thousands of Indians were dying. It is a plague. It is a demon. Our farthest church out, a missions church which is very far away, a several hour hike from one of our strong churches, Chiconamel. Another 8 or 9 hours of hiking through the jungle, there is another church. There was a lady there who was a widow, and who had a few kids, but is otherwise alone with only the gospel. She is very committed to the gospel, and “sarampión negro” came. Here is this widow and a few kids, and you would think that God would surely protect her. But “sarampión negro” swept through and killed two of her teenage daughters. She doesn’t have any help and the village is overwhelmed because of so many people dying with this disease. She went to the town counsel of the village for help. And they said, “We are sorry, but we can’t help. There are so many deaths that we can’t dig the holes fast enough. You will have to take care of them yourself and put the bodies in a line with the other bodies, and we will get to your daughters when we get the holes dug.” This is just a little lady, almost a grandma, who has to now take her dead daughters, put a rope around them and herself and drag their bodies to the place where the dead are being buried. So she dragged her girls to the place where they could be buried. It took her all day to do that. You must understand that these girls are her own flesh and blood. She is alone. She dragged them there, and then because there was no one to help her, she had to go buy a sack of “cal” (lime). The jungle is unforgiving, and one of the ways they try to keep disease from spreading is by covering things with lime, which kills disease. So once her daughters were in the line, she had to go get a 45kg bag of lime and carry it on her back until she got to her daughters, cut the bag open and cover her daughters in lime. That took her all of that day to do that. (David begins to jump). - I can feel it! - I can feel it! - It is like…it is good. I can feel it, it is all over me. I like it! -
So the first day is gone. The second day she began hiking at daylight, alone; her daughters are dead. She hiked through the jungle to our first church, Chiconamel. When she got to Chiconamel, what did she find? She found the pastors and the elders together in the middle of an extended fast. She didn’t find them down at a fancy restaurant eating 0.5kg steaks. She didn’t find them at a fancy hotel. “Jesus!” That is where she found them; at the altar of God almighty. I like it! (David begins jumping again) - It’s pretty good isn’t it. - She hiked 9 hours through the jungle and over those mountains to get to the only help she knew to go to, thanks be to God forever! She went to Jesus, and the reason for Jesus being alive is to destroy the works of the devil, and premature death is a work of the devil. So it must be destroyed, right?
Isaiah, chapter 61, verse 1. (David quotes a song to Jesus) “Jesus, your name is like honey on my lips” I love you! You’re pretty awesome. Yahoo!
When the woman go to the church, the wives of the pastors and elders ask her to wait for them to finish praying. Now let’s move that whole scene to an American situation. If you came to me and I told you to wait, you’d kill me. But our people trust the man of God, because they have to; there is no one else to turn to. So these ladies assisted her and asked her to wait until dark. So hours later the pastor came out and found out what was happening. He said, “We will go in the morning. Because tonight, we will pray all night.” There is something more important than death and life. It’s the presence of Jesus. So the woman said, “Ok.” Then the pastor’s wives took her and helped her and encouraged her and loved her. At daylight, the pastors came out of their little room. They gathered their wives and the woman and they hiked 9 hours to the other village. This is the third day. Did you hear what I just said to you? Ok. They got to the village and they found that the daughters are very close to being buried. But they are not buried yet, they were next in line. The main pastor and the associate pastor each straddle (stand over with legs on either side) one of those girls who are covered in lime and decayed bodies. They stood over them and they called them by name, and both of those girls stood up, raised from the dead! Yahoo! And it is not my fault. It’s Jesus’ fault. It’s not my fault. It’s Jesus’ fault. “Sarampión negro” was defeated. Premature death spirits were defeated. Doubt and unbelief - destroyed. The name of Jesus - exalted! Wow!
A couple of days later I was there in Chiconamel and people came in from the other villages. I was sitting there and I can speak the language now, Aztec (Nahuatl), and I was listening. And I heard “mikis pan amantzi inemiles”. “Mikis” means “dead”, “pan amantzi” means “now”, “inemiles” means “they’ve been given life”. And I said, “Wait! Excuse me for listening to your conversation, but who was dead and who now has life? I want to know about this. They told me the story, and those girls were sitting right there. I was on the ground crying like a little child as the mother came, trembling, and kneeled at my feet, and with tears in her eyes said “Thank you brother David, for bringing the gospel that has raised my two daughters from the dead.” That’s fun! All of the distress, all of the dismay, all of the problems, all of the hurt, all of the worry, all of the doubt, all of the unbelief is pretty small when that starts happening. All of the worries of life, they go somewhere. I don’t know where they go. But they disappear, and all you can do is worship Jesus.
I want you to read this with me, and I want to know if your Bible says something similar to what mine does. (Isaiah 61:1) My Bible says, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me.” Does your Bible say that, or something similar? Where is the Spirit of God? Where is He? Where is He?! I don’t understand what you are saying. (On me!) Me too. He is on me. And it doesn’t matter how you look at me. You can look down at me, up at me, esteem me, degrade me, try to intimidate me, you can fuss at me, you can do anything you want. It is not going to change the fact that the mighty Holy Ghost is on me. It might not feel good to my emotions, I may not like it. As a mater of fact, I probably won’t appreciate your opinion of me very much at all. But it is not going to change the fact that the great and mighty Holy Ghost is on me. Ok? He is on me, and where I go, He goes. And when you go into villages and preach the gospel in authority and power, He stays where you go. Because everywhere the soles of my feet go, I can possess that place for the Lord Jesus Christ. He gives it to me. It’s mine! It doesn’t matter what devil is there. It doesn’t matter what coven of warlocks. It doesn’t make any difference what the prince or power’s name is. It matters who Jesus is. It doesn’t matter the disease. It doesn’t matter who the carrier of the disease is. It doesn’t matter about the political situation, guns, bullets, none of it - Jesus is what matters. I have some proof. I think it is in Luke chapter 4. Yes, it is. Look there with me for a second. How are we doing? Are you all doing alright? I wish the whole world could feel what I feel. I feel that the Spirit of the Lord is upon me, and it feels very good. And He has sent me to preach the gospel, to proclaim Jesus! I like this.
There is a story I am about to tell you, and it has a purpose. There’s a couple of people in here that I think need to hear this. I want to read you this in Luke 4:18. What does it say in your Bible? I know what mine says. Yours says something just about exactly like mine does. So I don’t understand why you don’t, or can’t, or won’t, or don’t allow Jesus to flow through you to do what He wants to do. And that is to destroy the works of the devil. You don’t have the right to stop Him! You are His friend. Let Him go through you. Don’t try to hold Him or bottle Him for your own pleasure! Let Him run through you. The more you let Him go through you, the greater He lets you be with Him. He likes it! He carries you to greater dimensions, greater levels, more heights, places you’ve never understood, places that other people have never understood either.
We were in a village, a big campaign with several thousand people in Las Placetas, when we ran out of food. The (Indian) brothers came and got me, “What are we going to do, we have to feed these masses of people? We don’t have enough food. More people came than we thought.” I said, “Come here!” We gathered around those old copper pots. And all those animals that had given their lives for the gospel were in those pots. And we began to pray over those pots, and over those beans, and over that rice, and over those stacks of tortillas, and over those buckets of coffee that were there. And we began feeding the people, and when we got through feeding those 3000 to 4000 people, however many there were, all the food that we fed - when we went back to the pots the food was still in the pots.
Jesus said the Spirit of the Lord is upon me. I want you to look at verse 21. What does it say in the first two words? Come on, somebody talk to me! See, you all have about a thousand different words out there. He began to say to them, what? “Today!” “This day, it is fulfilled in your ears.” You are still waiting for something that has already happened. It has happened I tell you. What are you waiting for? It’s already happened! “Well, I don’t feel…” Who said you were going to? “But I don’t understand…” Who said you were going to? “Well I never saw…” That ain’t our fault. You have to “study to show yourself approved”. You have got to submit to the Holy Ghost. You have to allow Him to show you. The devil is blinding us to truth. I’m telling you that Jesus said “This day” years ago, and we are still waiting for some greater revelation. There is none! Jesus is the revelation!
I was on my way to church one afternoon, and I am a pretty “shouty” fella (guy). I shout a lot. I was walking along with about 4 or 5 of us fellas and a long string of Indians. Everywhere we go there is a large entourage. Every year it gets bigger. I can’t go anywhere without bunches of people wanting to go. And that’s ok, it’s fun. So we were traipsing (walking) through the woods there and we were worshipping Jesus. We got to this village, I’m not going to tell you the name because it’s a “hotbed” (violent place). We got there and preached the gospel and then came back through the woods, shouting and worshipping Jesus. In the village where we just preached, there was a group of about 25 men, that had these automatic weapons of every kind of description and sort. There was a very wealthy man there that came out of his house and began to yell at them and call them all kinds of names, because he had hired these men, and paid them several million pesos to have them kill all of us. We had walked right by them and they never saw us! I am not a quiet individual whenever I don’t think danger is around. And when I think danger is around, I am even louder! Just ask the devil, a lot of you all listen to him a lot. Yahoo. The man got violent with them because we walked right by them, and then when we left at 11:00 that night, we walked right by them again in the dark. None of us, not even the Indians, saw them. God spared us because of His infinite wisdom and mercy and grace. Because the Spirit of God is upon us. Because He fulfilled the scriptures for me, so that I could walk with Him in the Holy Ghost. Is that true or not? So then, we ought to go out and do exploits (great works for God), isn’t that what brother Daniel (the prophet Daniel 11:32) said? “Be strong and do exploits!” Ok, I think I will. “Man, you’re out of your mind!” No, I’m out of your mind. I am in the mind of Christ. Uh-oh, the weapon is pulled (referring to his bandana handkerchief).
Are you all mad enough yet, or can I go some more? I’m really working on that today, aren’t I? “This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.” So I don’t really understand what the world, the church world, where I live and where we all exist, what are you waiting on to allow the power of Heaven to flow? Jesus has done it, He has fulfilled it, it is complete. We are not lacking anything, we are only lacking confidence and trust in Him. Because it is done, Brother Mike, you know that more than I do. We’ve got to let Him go, man. We’ve got to let Him be Lord. We’ve got to let Him be Señor y Salvador de nuestras vidas (Lord and Savior of our lives). We’ve got to let Him go. He is Lord and Savior of our lives. And He feels good, I can tell you that. Thank you Jesus!
There was this black-magic warlock, which most of you don’t even believe exist, because you think it is so different where you are in the United States…That is just because you don’t want to get serious. You like your hamburgers too much and you’d rather eat them than fast, that’s the way you are. Until some guy like me comes along and fusses at you a bit and then you’ll take a short spurt and do good and then you’ll regress back into your decadency, your apathy! And it’s not my fault, because where I go, Jesus is still with me, whether it’s in front of the guns, or in this great crowd, or wherever, it doesn’t matter. I don’t have to be in some little bitty corner with my four friends listening to some pretty little tape and get “goose bumps”. I can get goose bumps standing in front of…Can I get real serious with the witchcraft for a second? Maybe a few more seconds. Now this thing is quite serious. Remember brother Paul, when we were walking out of La Paua, or what’s the new name for La Paua? Mecatipa! Remember when we encountered the principality that afternoon? Let’s see what you can handle, are you ready? I going to come out like I really am now. I’ve been covering myself long enough. Let’s see if you can handle the real me. Most demons and humans can’t. That’s why I’m not for sale. I just wish I could call names on “mega-things” that have tried to buy us for a few measly million dollars. Let’s see, what must I do now? Let me think. I’ve got myself now to where I have to tell you this. Before I do, could I share a verse with you? How about Hebrews? Are you all doing ok? I’ve noticed that I’ve only run off (made to leave) about 10 people so far, so I’m going to work on the rest of you.
I was approached by a very famous fellow a little while ago, well it was a few years ago, and he said, “You are great and what you are doing is wonderful. But there is one problem with you. You don’t know how to bend around certain individuals. You’ll say anything to anybody at anytime. And because of that, we can’t accept you.” I looked at him and smiled and said, “Thank you Jesus!” I want Jesus to accept me, and He has, thank Him. I want to do my best to get along with you as long as I can. But it is inevitable that people of low character, and shallow commitment, and hardly any responsibility in their lives, and very very thin loyalty, I just don’t get along with those kind of people. It’s nothing personal, I can still smile at you. See, you’ve got to understand that number one, I am owned by the Kingdom of God. I am owned by them. Ok? Number two, God, gracious as He was, took me after all those years and finally got me placed into a people; He gave me a nation; a people. They own me also. He gave me a wonderful family. They own me also! He gave me a great group of guys. They own me also! So I have very little left that is mine. Do you understand? So that makes a guy like me pretty free. I don’t have anything to lose, so why don’t I just tell the truth? How about that? I think I will.
Ok. Get up in my big 4-wheel drive with me. We’re going to church. Immediately, you “great” Americans are in there and you’re talking about some stupid new doctrine that doesn’t mean anything; it hasn’t stood the test of time; it inevitably won’t work anywhere but in your little circle, so its not the will of God. So I plug in my little worship tape and turn it louder, because you - the more I turn my thing on, the louder you get with your demon doctrine, until finally you can’t go high enough in decibels and you’re forced to worship Jesus with me. That is not a joke! And so we’re going along and after a few minutes we get off the paved road. And you’re thinking, “Boy I thought this was going to be tough, this paved road is pretty bouncy, but it’s ok.” And then we hit a really good gravel road and you think, “Wow, this really is tough!” But then we get to a substandard, by our rules, bone fide 4-wheel drive road, and you are bouncing around in that cab like a BB (small round metal pellet). God leaves you somehow, I don’t know how. I don’t even recognize the road because of the worship; it’s awesome! Then we get to the horse trail and you are gone. Finally we get to where we are going and you get out with me, and I want you to get this picture. I’m going to paint you a picture, are you ready? I’ve often been called a very colorful fella. So let’s be colorful. We meet up with the Indians and are looking over my shoulder, “Wonder what they’re saying? Because I didn’t take the time and I don’t care about anybody, so I don’t know Spanish or I don’t know Indian. I live in my own selfish bubble and I couldn’t give a flip (don’t care) about who goes to hell and who doesn’t.” So you’re wondering, “I wonder what they’re talking about? Probably about me.” Selfish little thing, I couldn’t give a flip about you, I just wonder why you are there at all. I care about souls. I care about those Indians getting born again. I care that we get another chance to walk up to a new village that has never ever heard of the power of the name of Jesus, and say “Jesus is Lord here!” That’s what I care about. My own protection, my own life, I don’t own it, remember? So it’s all abandoned for Jesus then. Let’s go for it! My son has now graduated from these schools that you all go to, he is coming. He’s been given a little section of land and I’ve given him, I don’t remember, about thirty-five or forty churches that we decided it is God (God’s will) for us to give this young boy that is fresh out of school, that has been on the mission field his whole life, gave him some territory and told him in the meeting, “You’re pretty (handsome) and you know what to say, and you know everything to do. That’s great, but the problem is that I don’t see those hundred churches I need yet in that section I just gave you. So get up and go get me those churches!” That’s my own son that I talk to like that. I’m his boss, and so family and work don’t cross. Understand? And so, here I am, this is awesome, I’m a daddy, I’ve given my entire life, and I’ve raised this boy right, and brother Paul was there and I don’t know who else was there. Were you there Jay? I don’t remember. We were on our way to Mecatipa, and we’re hiking over this mountain, and I’m in the back. I used to be in the front leading and shouting and screaming and hollering, but now I’ve gone to the back of the line and I let these new guys, these younger men take the place I used to in the front. Let them have the experience; let them lead a while, let me just stand back there and make sure they’re leading in the right direction. Between me and these 4 or 5 missionaries, there is a whole group of pastors who are both older and younger, and we are hiking up the trail. The smell of the jungle is there and the heat, and I’m in the back weeping because of the sight in front of me. Some of these Indian men, when I first got there they were babies and now they are men and they’re preaching the gospel with us. They are married and have got families, and it’s wonderful to walk behind that crowd. I’m in the back weeping and saying “Thank you Jesus that there is another generation that can take the reins of the gospel, and I can pass the torch to them and know that it will be kept bright. So I’m just walking back there enjoying myself. I was walking for a while, about 30-40 minutes, and an Indian just blasts out of the jungle right in front of me. How he got past everybody, I couldn’t tell you, because they are really good (at perceiving things in the jungle). He came and fell down before me and I picked him up, because I remembered what brother Peter did in the Bible. Do you all remember what he did? He took no credit for the anointing of God, he said “Stand up! I am a man just like you are.” Does anybody remember that? So when they try to give you something that is a possession of Heaven, do not take it! It’s not yours, it Jesus’. So you stand that man up and you say, “Thank you. But stand up and look me eye to eye, because I am a man as you are.”
He said to me, “My mother is dying. Can you please come?” And I look at the leader, the Indian leader, and he did this to me (shrugs his shoulders). So I went past him to my son Jody who is the leader of this section too, with this Indian leader. He goes (shrugs his shoulders). Now this is fixing to get tight (going to get serious). This is the real thing. This is what we all teach about and what we know to me true, but we went into the house of a principality (extremely powerful demon spirit), and decapitated him (cut his head off). And it is pretty rough, but that’s ok. Can we get gross with it and tell it like it happened? Ok. I just want to make sure that I don’t hurt anybody. This is tough. Ok.
This Indian man was not saved; he just heard that we were coming. I said, “Ok, we’ll come. But I’ve got to go preach the gospel first. Remember what we taught you the other day? You go, and what are you going to do? (Preach!) What are you going to preach? (The Kingdom of God is near). Then you are going to heal the sick. Is that how it goes? Is that the order? So we are scriptural to say, “We’re going to come in a minute, but we’ve got to go preach the gospel first.” Is this true? You all didn’t forget, that’s pretty good. Where did we go (in the Bible)? Did we ever go anywhere? (Hebrews) Did I say what chapter? (No) Does somebody want to pick one? Ok, go to Hebrews chapter 4. Isn’t it fun to be free and filled with the Holy Ghost? Isn’t it fun? Isn’t it fun to go face principalities and demons and raise the dead, and still be free? Isn’t it fun to face bullets and face the enemies of our God and stay free? Isn’t it fun to go through the stress and the hurt and all the disappointments, and have Christians rip you off (do evil to you) and still stay free? Isn’t that fun? Yahoo. I wouldn’t bore you with such things as how Christians rip you off, because most of you are in a “utopia” kind of life right now. You are just floating around, and you don’t want to hear that. But I promise you this: I’m a great friend, but I make a lot better enemy. Just remember that your whole life. You hear me? Because whenever the enemy of my God shows up, I am a good enemy. I guarantee you. The devil goes down, in the name of Jesus.
So I told him (the Indian man), “I’ll be along directly (soon), but it would be nice if you would invite someone to this party. Those black-magic warlocks that cast the spell on your family, would you please invite them along? Would you mind telling them that I curse their god and he’s a wimp? Thank you very much. See you.”
Where do you come off getting the right to do that (how do you have the right to do that)? Where do you come off asking me? Just because what you’ve got doesn’t work, don’t worry with me. Let me alone. So we went hiking on in there. Now you are going to find out why I have a job. Now I’m in the front. Every available discernment is working, every available gift is intact, and we were moving with much caution. Could I please make a suggestion to you? I wouldn’t frivolously attack a principality if I were you. In the sense of knowing each other for years, me and this prince are friends in a sense. Not a friend of the devil, but we are well known to each other, do you understand? We are well known to each other, not in a friendship of good, but a friendship of hate. Because we will beat him, in the name of Jesus. And I know him well, and he’s not a good thing - he’s a devil, and I will in the name of Jesus figure out a way to slide that word of the Living God, that sword of the Spirit, into that 5th rib and twist it. God will then show me before he dies how to take it out and take that head. And then take that head and go to Jerusalem and wonder to the people, “Why are you so afraid of these giants? They fall like any other one.” That’s what you have to put up with from guys whose names are David.
The closer we got, the more we felt it. I felt this wall of energy and I stopped the guys. It wasn’t a good wall, it was a demonic thing, and you could step in and out of that wall. Men in the crowd began to cry from the devil’s presence. Can you worship Jesus when you are in front of demonic royalty?! Is your God big enough? Mine is. Now I’m fixing to go into a couple of adjectives that will probably be disapproved of, but I’ll put up with the problem myself also. I really enjoy being that close to the enemy of God. It’s an awesome horrible feeling, but it really gets me popping (excited and ready for battle). I mean it. I mean, I can’t tell you how that feels. All the hair on you stands up, and the blood is burning through you, blood-red and it’s hot - boiling in you. Your heart is about to blow through your chest and it’s not because you are in front of your four friends listening to some CD in a controlled environment, and getting “goose bumps”. It’s because Jesus that is in me is greater that he that is in the world. And there is another reason. Hebrews 4:12, the word of God is alive! I serve a living God and His name is Jesus! The word of God is alive. There’s not a sword out there that’s sharper. My Bible says, “The sword of the Spirit, the word of God, is sharper that any two-edged sword, and it doesn’t matter the prince’s name that bearing it. It matters that I stand with it in my hands, gripped, and bow to the king. And He always tells me “Go!” (Preach!) What are we going to preach? (The Kingdom of God is near). Did He say, “Only if the area is cleansed o principalities?” (No!) Or did He simply say “Go!”? Preach! The kingdom of Heaven is near.
It wasn’t long along the trail that we ran into some things hanging in the trees. I froze, I can feel these things on me and my neck veins are just about to blow, I can feel it. It’s wonderful - the power of God that can hold a demon prince at bay through men. That’s amazing. That is just simply amazing. These great warlords of Satan are standing there violent and vicious to destroy us. And step after step you walk through their domain. And your body is trembling under the power of the devil. And the power of Jesus in you is holding you strong. There were these things hanging in the trees. These warlocks had come and filled these trees with fetishes (symbols or objects that represent the faith of the warlocks, like a voodoo doll). Who knows what that is? Ten or fifteen, twenty people in here - that’s sin. (Speaking to the teacher) You need to teach on that. It’s simply a point of contact for the devil; it’s nothing more than that. It’s a demon. It could be anything. I’m not going to tell you what it is; you’ll start doctrines over it. It’s all kinds of stuff. We rebuked the devil and kept walking, calling on the name of Jesus. I turned to these men and I said to them, “I hope you’re born-again. I hope you’re not lying to me, because you will die if you’re not.” Because these boys are not…nevermind, I won’t hurt you any more. I’ll use the sword of the Spirit on the devil, not you. So we get to the house and its covered on the north, south, east, and west (with fetishes). It’s protected from any power, except the blood of Jesus. We walked up, and these spirits are so intense that some of the men with me are weeping like children. That doesn’t make them weak. That doesn’t make them beggarly. That makes them, in my opinion, men of honest integrity. You don’t try to suppress or hide anything in this situation. You are very honest and open and ask for the blood protection of the Holy Ghost. Because my Bible says the Holy Ghost shed His blood, in Acts it says that (Acts 20:28 KJV might be interpreted this way). So we walk up there and I wait through the protocol. Even in this tense situation we have protocol. So they said to me, “You can come in”, so I stepped inside the door. There was a lady laying there on the floor and I wasn’t paying attention to what was over on my right side. I was looking intently on the problem. Just as I take a step, I looked to my right. Guess who was standing there? There were two black magic warlock demons. So what do you do? “Oh, brother Hogan, let’s share the love of God with them.” OK, I will. After I chop their devil to pieces, I sure will. “You’re too aggressive for me.” I already told you that. I knew that already. So you leave the woman that’s in pain, and you go nose to nose with these demons. You walk right over to them and touch them on the nose with your nose. And you tell them “Today”, in their language, in Aztec (Nahuatl) so everybody can understand, “Today, the power and blood of the Lord Jesus Christ will defeat your god.” And then you step to the next one, and you touch his nose and you tell him the same thing. And then lo and behold (wow), you can’t believe what’s hanging over there in the rafters. They brought their god with them. Can you believe it? What an opportunity! Hanging right out of the rafters was a goat head. I said, “This is too good to be true!” There were things running through me, I was feeling spikes, I was feeling needles, I just couldn’t believe it, I almost floated over there to my greatest enemy. He was exactly hung to my height, and we bumped heads, he and I did. “Brother Hogan, you’re out of your mind!” No, remember, I’m out of yours! Jesus! You better watch out when that starts happening. When you start worshipping Jesus, devils get freaked out. Jesus! You’re awesome! I like it, a whole lot. “Wow, what’d you do man? The devil was there!” Oooooh. He’s everywhere, where are you going to go hide from him? So you tell him, “Look, there really isn’t a lot scripturally that I can tell you but one thing, the Lord Jesus rebuke you!” Oooh, that gets them stoking (very angry)! So you don’t turn your back on your enemy, you back away from him looking at him. You go down the line of your enemies, very cautiously. Isn’t this true brother Paul? (Paul says something) Wait, we’ll get there in a minute. That happened after, right after this. You’re going to like this. I walked over to this grandma, and I knelt down beside her with much respect. She is not the devil; she is in trouble. Now you show the compassion of the cross. Not at your enemy! No compromise to the devil! But when you get to the lady that needs Jesus, you take that blanket and throw it back and go…wow! You’ve got a naked grandma lying there, with huge sores dripping. Then you’ve got something else. Uh oh. On every one of her vertebrae going down, there is a horn sticking out. Uh oh, now I’ve lost most of you. Good, see you! I reached over and grabbed one of those horns to see if this was a trick. Surely this was a trick! You know, after all, I am a small bit intelligent, and this is not supposed to happen to humans. So you reach over there and wiggle one, then wiggle another. Those horns are attached to that lady! So you look at her and say, “I’m sorry grandma”. And then you turn back and look at those devils, and you say it really simple: “You shouldn’t have done that. Because greater is He that is in me, greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.” Jesus! You see why I like Him so much? Because he lets me go into those wonderful situations like that, and He lets me be aggressive and have courage, and hold the banner of honor and loyalty and discipline.
See what you do is this, I’ll explain what you do. You wait until the situation happens and then you aggressively go after the cross. That’s why you lose so many battles. You ought to aggressively go after the cross, and then when you get put in the situation the cross will respond for you. You have to stay ready. We have probably the greatest fighting force on the planet, living in the United States: the Navy Seals. What if we waited until we were invaded before we prepared them for battle? Of course we would lose, that ‘s why you lose. We prepare them before battle. We stay in a war alert status and we are left alone. Yahoo! That is why my family and most of these men I work with fast every other day of our lives. That is why I get up at 3 or 4 o’clock in the morning and seek God for 2-3 hours every day. Because I know I won’t be able to say, “Ok, you warlocks, hang out for a few days because I’m going to go home and fast.” Or, “Excuse me prince, you know what I said? Just be patient and wait to respond to that for a while. I need to run home and fast for ten days.” Then you walk over to grandma and say, “You know, I would help you but I’m just not ready. I need to run home and fast for two weeks.
But what if you believe the Bible, and you believe that you have a need to stay ready, to stay sharp, to stay alert, and to devour the word of life, and drink the new wine of God daily, and stay in His great Holy Presence, and it doesn’t have to be worked up, conjured up, or whatever else you all do. I don’t know what else you all do. Hyped up. You are just ready. All the war buttons are always red. Do it!! Ok. But if you are ready, instead of having to get ready, you can kneel down there over grandma and you can hug her and tell her “Amantsi huala chicawas pan icone totecototeotsay” “Now the great powers of Heaven will come through the son of the Living God.” And you hold her, just for a moment, because it’s illegal to do that. But nobody will touch me as long as I’m in that position, you see. And then you simply touch her on the side of the head and begin to thank Jesus for His precious blood. She’s not born again. How do I have the right to do that for somebody that’s not even born again? Because I wanted to. Because Jesus did, half the time, the same thing. Half the time it was his faith, half the time it was “As your faith is, so be it unto you.” And so we lay there for a little bit, and she told me, “Taskemate nuitni Dabe” “Thank you brother David”. That’s enough for me. I’ll go another million miles now. The people that I am sent to, that I server, that I can bring the great powers of God, they look you right in the eyes with weeping, and say “Taskemate nuitni Dabe.” And you look back and say, “Ahmot leno” “Think nothing of it.” And then you get up and salute (say goodbye to) all the people in the house, including your enemies. And then you back out the door. And you tell those boys (the missionaries) “Listen to me. The devil is on the way. He doesn’t want grandma anymore. He wants me. And that’s your job, isn’t it? The poor, the defenseless, the people that need help…aren’t we strong in the Lord in the strength of Jesus for a reason? Don’t we have the protection of the cross and the blood and the word of God, and the angel’s protection, the legions of God at our disposal? Don’t we have the armor of God? Don’t we? Well use it!! The nations of the world are waiting on us to wake up O church. Arise, O mighty ones of Israel, and let the great powers of God flow through you. Yes Jesus.
I told those boys, “You take off walking down that trail, you don’t look back, you don’t answer anybody, you pray in tongues, you worship God, and you thank Him for the blood of Jesus. And woe unto you fellows that have hidden sin, I’m glad I’m not you. Because the demon is coming, and he’s not going to be a headache, he’s going to be a prince. And he’s coming to kill us, because the greatest wraths of hell have been invoked now. Because I happen to believe that I have the right to kick the gates off of hell and possess it for my king. Yeehah!
And so we’re walking along, and it’s tense: everybody’s hair is on end, people are weeping, and we’re walking, we’re walking, “We’re getting away, we’re getting away, we’re getting away, thank you Jesus.” Oh, but no, you’re not. But you are. “Oh yes, please let it be. Let us get away.” So we’re hiking. There is nobody tired now. We are all flying. Whoohoo! We came up to this bog wood gate. We opened the wood gate and out flowed the crowd, one minister after another. I’m at the end and I’m looking around. Thank God it’s an open field and not one of these dark canopy places. Ooh, scary! Because in an open field you can see. Thank you Jesus. I shut that gate and latched it. We are running. Nobody’s allowed to do anything but sing praises to the blood, isn’t that right brother Paul? We’re only allowed to speak in tongues and thank God for His precious blood. Because that’s the only thing that can protect you against these principalities. And so we’re going: zoom, zoom , zoom. And all of a sudden I started slowing because I heard this noise behind me. Oh no! Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! The gate that was latched, you could hear it squeak open. Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God! It’s standing open with no one there! Then it closes, <squeak, wham!> And I told those guys, “Come here, come here, come here. Listen, the “thing” is in the pasture with us. We can’t see him, but he can see us. And he’s big, and we will win! Now begin to thank Heaven for the precious blood of Jesus! Worship the King for the blood of the King. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Jesus. Help us Jesus. Help us Jesus. Help us Jesus. Oh God! Thank you Jesus. Your word is true, let every man be a liar.” You are trembling under the presence of the enemy. The “thing” came right up to us. You can’t see it, but I’m telling you I hope you never have to feel this. Please God! That thing was scary! Then all of a sudden it burst into a ball of fire. We were all very frightened. That really is what happened. And so we kept on praying and praying in tongues, and praying for the blood of Jesus, and thanking Him, “Oh God, it was a perfect sacrifice…remember? Help us God please!” Your flesh is tormented by…I don’t know how many there were; there were several of them. But this one big one was manifesting, and I was praying “Oh Jesus, Jesus, Jesus”, because I’ve seen that thing several times. “Oh Jesus have mercy please!” And you all should have seen it! The thing exploded, and sent swoosh over the mountain, and was gone! And little by little, our emotions started calming down and we began to worship and praise Him and honor Him. The victory finally came into our mouths. We were worshipping God and weeping and crying, and shouting and jumping and bucking and snorting, and running! We were running! That’s what happened. But the story’s not over there.
Because I told everybody, remember brother Paul, I said, “Mark the time.” Remember me telling them that? I said, “Mark the time.” So we marked the time. And so a few days later, I don’t remember all of those details like that, but it was a few days later. We were in another village a few hours away. And I’m standing there, just the same old me, just standing there. I’m ready to preach. I have gone, and what am I going to do? (Preach!) What am I going to preach? (The Kingdom of God is near.) You know, the reason I can do that is because it says in my Bible, I read a verse, a new one, are you ready? In Matthew 21:21. It’s brand-new, I found it myself today in the Bible. It says, “All things whatsoever you ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive.” Isn’t that something? Yahoo! You all listen to me, I was standing there and the service was about to start, and all of a sudden you see in the darkness this little crowd of people coming, coming out of the darkness in the jungle. And you look at them wondering who they are. And they walked right up to me, and I’m backing up wondering who these people are, and watching for guns and knives and that kind of stuff. There was this little grandma, who was standing with her feet planted solidly and looking me square in the eyes, which is unusual for women, they don’t do that. And she said to me, “Thank you brother David.” And I backed off from her, “Where do I know you from?” She said, “You came to my house not long ago.” I said, “Uh-uh, that ain’t (isn’t) so.” She said, “Oh yes, I was the little grandma that had the horns.” I asked her, “What time did Jesus come in your house?” She told me, and it was the exact moment that thing blew up. The Holy Ghost hit her, those horns and those sores are gone! Yahoo! Jesus! Yeah! Jesus! There were 11 people with her and they all got born again. Isn’t that something? Isn’t that awesome? Isn’t that wonderful? Wow! What a God!
I’m going to read this verse with you, and then I’m going to stop. And then we’re going to trust Jesus to touch us, ok? Book of Mark…You all, I can tell you I feel the presence of Jesus, and it’s wonderful. It’s awesome. But I can also tell you that I also felt the presence of Jesus while under the thumb of one of the greater princes I’ve ever had to fight against. I can also tall you I feel the presence of the Lord Jesus when they’ve got their big guns pointed at us. Circumstances have nothing to do with my emotions. My emotions do not run (control) my circumstances, nor do my emotions run the Holy Ghost within me. I am filled with the Holy Ghost because the Bible says I am. It doesn’t say “If everything’s pretty and I like it”. It says that “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me.” It says, “For this reason the Son of God was manifested: to destroy the works of the devil.” It says, “Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world.” It says, “Go, preach the gospel to every creature.” Ok, I think I will. I want to read this with you please. Mark chapter 16. I found this verse this morning, and I couldn’t believe it was in the Bible. Isn’t that something? (Prior to praying for people, David munches on a breath-mint called “Tic-Tacs”) Tic-Tacs, cinnamon, they taste good. It says right here in my Bible…oh no! I don’t want to read this to you. It is so wonderful! I found it this morning, and I want you to believe it like I do. I want you to appreciate it like it is supposed to be. I want me to bow to it greater also. I do want us to do that, would you at least consider that? Please. Oh God, here we go. Mark 16…uh-oh. Verse 10. Oh boy. The Bible says, my Bible says, “She went and told them that she had been with Jesus.” I’ve done my best. I’ve come here and I’ve told you that I walk with Jesus. I’ve done the same thing that this lady has done. I’ve come; I’ve been with Jesus. I hear you weep, I hear you mourn, just like these people. He is not dead; He is alive! Uh-oh, I’m going to get you and you’re going to get mad, but I can live with that. Starting around this time of the year called “Shantolo, where I come from they all dress up like women and have these massive orgies, and dead people come back and everyone has sex with them and so on, it’s when you all begin to bow to those pagan demons also. And then you take Jesus, the great King of the universe, and you shrink Him to this little-bitty thing and you put Him in this hay thing. I guess I’d better inform you all - He ain’t in that stupid box! I’ll tell you all one more thing that I guess I’d better inform you of. Some ofyou walk around and you’ve got these things around your neck, I’ve seen them, and it’s these gold or silver crosses, and you’ve got Him hanging there. Listen to me; I have to tell you something. He ain’t hanging on that cross anymore! My Bible says He has ascended, and sits triumphant over death, hell, and the grave! And He continually makes intercession for you and I. Wow! Jesus loves me and He’s interceding to the Father for me? Whooo, let’s go for it, what do you say? (Let’s go forward with aggression). Come on! Quit your weeping and mourning. You are not defeated; you are victorious! I understand the temptation. It’s not that I can’t see the problem; the problem is not God. Jesus is Lord! Ok? And it says right here in my Bible, it says, “And they, when they had heard that He was alive and had been seen by her”, what did they do? They didn’t believe. Many of you in here don’t believe me, what I’m saying. And I’m sorry for that. That’s not my problem; that’s yours. Because it’s true. There’s many, many more things to talk about but some things can’t be shared with you, you won’t listen. After that He appeared to some more people, verse 12, and they went and told the rest of them, in verse 13. But they didn’t believe them either. There will be many people like me that come. Some of you will believe. Some of you will become like me and other men that are doing something for Heaven. Some of you will, but the majority of you will stay mundane and get mad. It’s not my fault, neither is it Heaven’s fault. It’s your choice, and I expect you to take the responsibility for that and make a decision. I was taught by one of the best, brother T.L. Osborn, he said, “Every time you preach, make sure that the people you preach to make a decision.” And so it says here in the Bible, “Afterward He appeared to the eleven as they sat to eat.” What did He do to them? Look, you’ve got to understand. Don’t you understand what happened to Him, that He was raised from the dead? He showed Himself to people, He sent His messengers before His face, and people still didn’t believe. So what was His message when he came back? “I love you boys. I understand.” That’s not what He said. My Bible says He upbraided them and rebuked them for their hardness of heart and unbelief. Whoops! Well, that’s what the Bible says anyhow. And then it says, uh-oh, here’s the “go” word again. Can you believe it? Why can’t He say “Just sit for a few minutes”? But His first words are “Go!” Oooooh. But I have to report to you, I am not an explainer, but a reporter. And I didn’t write the Bible, the Holy Ghost did. All I do is read it and do it. Ok, is that fair enough? It says here in my Bible, “Go around the world and preach the gospel to every creature.” He that believes, that’s the first thing that’s got to happen, and is baptized, that’s the second thing, can be saved. But he that doesn’t believe, you are a damned individual.
Now then, I’m going to have to rebuke you just lightly, is that ok? It may get a little serious, but probably not. These signs shall follow them that believe. One of the main questions that gets asked of me all over the world is, “How in the world do you get those things to happen for you?” I believe. “Well, why don’t they happen, why can’t I get them to happen?” You don’t believe. I didn’t write it, I just read it and believe it. “And these signs shall follow them that believe, in my name they shall…” do a lot of things. I’m not going to go through it all. I could and I would, it would be fun. Cast out devils, speak new tongues, take up serpents, drink deadly things and they won’t hurt you, lay hands on the sick and they will recover. So then after He spoke to them, He was received up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God Almighty. And verse 20, you must see this. As soon as He told it to them, what did they do? Well, look at that. They did what He said. And they went forth and they preached where? Everywhere. And when they did what He said, it’s kind of like reading Matthew chapter 10 again, isn’t it? They went, they preached, something happened. The Lord was with them confirming His word. So I suggest we take it for what it says and go and do it, is that all right with you? Can we do that? Will you please stand up and let’s pray together.
I really want to sing some more, just a couple of songs. I really want to repent to Jesus for unbelief. (He talks with the leader to get the piano player to come up again.) Alright, everybody listen to me please. It’s very serious, of course it is. “Boy, you’re too intense!” I’m getting there; I’m working on getting there. Remember the first day I told you all about a little baby that was deaf, and the bull, and the package and all of that? The other day we were in a village, I don’t remember the name of it, where this little boy was. It was chaos, the Holy Ghost fell like last night, and it was chaos, it was wild. And all of a sudden there is this little-bitty lady holding onto my pant leg, pulling on me. I looked down and this woman had the littlest boy standing beside her. She was talking to me, but because of the wild thing that was going on, I couldn’t hear her. So I just knelt down and grabbed the little boy. I had no idea what was wrong with him. So I was just holding on to him, holding on to him, holding on to him. All of a sudden that little boy begin hitting me, bang, bang, bang. So I let him go. My first opinion was, “That was a devil. It had to be because he was beating me up.” He ran out into the jungle. There went the mama, and there went the daddy. After a while…this is good. Really, really, good. After a while, they came back to me and there was the daddy standing in front of me, and I didn’t recognize him with that little boy. They were weeping. The mama was there. And they told me this is the little boy that beat you and ran out into the woods. I said, Ok. I was figuring on having to pray for him again. They were all weeping now. The little boy was seven years old and had been born deaf. And when I was holding onto his little self like this, Jesus opened both his ears and the loudness of the sound scared him so badly, that he beat me up and ran off. (David speaks to the musicians) Would you all just worship Jesus for His precious blood, just for a minute? (song interlude)
The other day, my son, brother Paul, and some of the other guys were in a village called “Agua Fria”, “Cold Water”. The Holy Ghost fell on the place and my son, a very serious guy, a lot different than me, he’s a lot more like my wife than me, because I’m wild and he’s calm. And Jesus appeared to him, my son. Fascinating. Jesus was standing there and he saw Him. Jesus turned from him and started walking out of the building. And brother Paul can attest to this, that boy jumped across the table, nobody else…he thought the whole world could see Him like he was. He grabbed the hem of the garment of the Lord Jesus Christ. And Jesus stopped and turned and looked at him. And my son will tell you, when he saw those eyes of fire, he let go of that garment and cowed down, thinking he was fixing to get smoked (about to die). And Jesus was just staring at him. And he said to Jesus, “Please, don’t go!” Jesus said, “I have to go.” “Please Jesus, don’t go.” Jesus said, “There’s too much unbelief here.” And my son said to Him, of course inspired by the Holy Ghost, “I believe. Please stay.” And the pwer of the King fell on the house.
I need you to do something please. Please! Can you please deal with the spirit of unbelief? Now. Please. In the name of Jesus. Jesus!
