THANK GOD, OR HE COULDN'T 35:36.025 --> 35:40.945 MAKE IT. WHEN HE PUTS THAT SEED INTO THE EARTH, IT STARTS A 35:40.945 --> 35:45.266 DIVINELY ORDERED PROCESS. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW IT WORKS. 35:45.266 --> 35:49.585 YOU PUT A SEED IN THE GROUND AND IT GROWS INTO A STALK OF CORN. 35:49.585 --> 35:53.485 AND THAT STALK PRODUCES SEVERAL EARS OF CORN. AND EACH EAR 35:53.485 --> 35:57.416 PRODUCES MANY, MANY SEEDS. I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MANY SEEDS 35:57.416 --> 36:01.916 ARE ON A, HOW MANY SEEDS, DOUG, ARE ON A EAR OF CORN? THOUSANDS, 36:01.916 --> 36:06.476 OKAY, THAT'S A LOT. AND THAT ALL COMES FROM JUST ONE SEED THAT A 36:06.476 --> 36:10.106 FARMER WOULD PLANT. SO THERE'S TWO IMPORTANT POINTS I WANNA 36:10.106 --> 36:13.166 MENTION TODAY REGARDING THAT. FIRST OF ALL, THE FARMER HAS TO 36:13.166 --> 36:17.695 SOW THE SEED BEFORE HE CAN HAVE A HARVEST. IF HE JUST LAYS IN 36:17.695 --> 36:20.096 BED AND SAYS, WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M GONNA BELIEVE THE LORD 36:20.096 --> 36:24.025 WILL GROW SOME CORN IN MY LAND THIS YEAR. IT WON'T WORK. HE HAS 36:24.025 --> 36:28.766 TO SOW THE SEED. THE MORE SEED THAT HE SOWS, THE LARGER HIS 36:28.766 --> 36:35.275 HARVEST. HERE'S A SCRIPTURE. EVEN AN UNSAVED, HEATHEN, 36:35.275 --> 36:38.516 NEBRASKA FARMER WOULD BELIEVE THIS SCRIPTURE. I'M GONNA READ 36:38.516 --> 36:42.925 IT TO YOU. IT COMES OUT OF 2 CORINTHIANS 9:6. EVERY FARMER 36:42.925 --> 36:45.835 ACTUALLY IN THE WORLD WOULD BELIEVE THIS SCRIPTURE. IT SAYS, 36:45.835 --> 36:51.085 "REMEMBER THIS, A FARMER WHO PLANTS ONLY A FEW SEEDS "WILL 36:51.085 --> 36:55.525 GET A SMALL CROP, "BUT THE ONE WHO PLANTS GENEROUSLY "WILL GET 36:55.525 --> 37:00.806 A GENEROUS CROP." EVERY FARMER IN THE WORLD WOULD BELIEVE THAT. 37:00.806 --> 37:04.286 THEY WOULD KNOW THAT, WOULDN'T THEY? BUT IT'S TRUE IN OUR 37:04.286 --> 37:08.516 GIVING TOO. AND THE NUMBER TWO THING IS THIS, SIMPLY SOWING 37:08.516 --> 37:12.445 SEED IS NOT ENOUGH TO PRODUCE A HARVEST. YOU HAVE TO BE CAREFUL 37:12.445 --> 37:16.885 WHERE YOU SOW. IF THAT FARMER JUST GOES OUT AND THROWS THAT 37:16.885 --> 37:22.255 SEED ON A CEMENT SLAB NEAR HIS BARN, WHAT'S THAT GONNA DO? 37:22.255 --> 37:25.706 NOTHING. IF YOU THROW YOUR SEED ON A CONCRETE SLAB, IT'S NOT 37:25.706 --> 37:30.085 GONNA REAP A HARVEST. WELL, AS WE LOOK AT THE PARABLE OF THE 37:30.085 --> 37:34.135 SOWER IN MARK CHAPTER FOUR, WE SEE THIS ILLUSTRATED. IT SAYS, 37:34.135 --> 37:39.085 "LISTEN, A FARMER WENT OUT TO PLANT SOME SEED. AS HE SCATTERED 37:39.085 --> 37:42.596 IT ACROSS HIS FIELD, SOME OF THE SEED FELL ON A FOOTPATH AND THE 37:42.596 --> 37:47.306 BIRDS CAME AND ATE IT. OTHER SEED FELL ON SHALLOW SOIL WITH 37:47.306 --> 37:50.936 UNDERLYING ROCK. THE SEED SPROUTED QUICKLY BECAUSE THE 37:50.936 --> 37:56.306 SOIL WAS SHALLOW, BUT THE PLANT SOON WILTED UNDER THE HOT SUN. 37:56.306 --> 38:01.226 AND SINCE IT DIDN'T HAVE DEEP ROOTS, IT DIED. OTHER SEED FELL 38:01.226 --> 38:04.016 AMONG THORNS THAT GREW UP AND CHOKED OUT THE TENDER PLANTS SO 38:04.016 --> 38:09.295 THEY PRODUCED NO GRAIN. STILL OTHER SEED, LISTEN TO THIS, FELL 38:09.295 --> 38:14.155 ON FERTILE SOIL. IN OTHER WORDS, IT WENT INTO GOOD GROUND. AND 38:14.155 --> 38:17.275 THEN THE SEED SPROUTED, THEY GREW, AND THEY PRODUCED A CROP 38:17.275 --> 38:23.215 THAT WAS 30, 60, AND EVEN A HUNDRED TIMES AS MUCH AS IT HAD 38:23.215 --> 38:28.436 BEEN PLANTED. MM, PUT YOUR SEED INTO GOOD GROUND. A KEY 38:28.436 --> 38:33.025 PRINCIPLE IN BIBLICAL ECONOMICS IS THAT WE MUST ALWAYS SOW OUR 38:33.025 --> 38:38.876 SEED IN GOOD GROUND. THE BEST AND MOST FERTILE SOIL FOR YOU TO 38:38.876 --> 38:43.735 PLANT IS WHERE YOU'RE GETTING FED. MALACHI 3:10 SAYS, "BRING 38:43.735 --> 38:47.755 YOUR TITHE INTO THE STOREHOUSE." THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GETTING FED. 38:47.755 --> 38:50.576 IF YOU'RE COMING HERE, THIS IS YOUR CHURCH, THIS IS WHERE 38:50.576 --> 38:54.596 YOU'RE GETTING FED. OTHERWISE, YOU NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE 38:54.596 --> 38:57.865 WHERE YOU GET FED. BUT IF YOU'RE GETTING FED HERE, THAT'S WHERE 38:57.865 --> 39:01.675 YOU NEED TO PLANT YOUR SEED, AMEN? YOU CAN DO OFFERINGS OTHER 39:01.675 --> 39:06.025 PLACES, BUT PUT YOUR TITHE WHERE YOU'RE GETTING FED. AND THEN 39:06.025 --> 39:08.815 NUMBER TWO, IT SHOULD BE A MINISTRY THAT'S CONSECRATED AND 39:08.815 --> 39:13.255 DEDICATED TO PRODUCING A HARVEST FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD. IF 39:13.255 --> 39:15.835 YOU'RE PUTTING MONEY INTO A DEAD CHURCH THAT DOESN'T EVEN 39:15.835 --> 39:22.106 PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL, YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET A HARVEST. PUT YOUR 39:22.106 --> 39:26.606 SEED INTO GOOD GROUND. AND EVEN IF TIMES ARE FINANCIALLY 39:26.606 --> 39:31.376 DIFFICULT AND ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE FINANCIAL CHALLENGES, 39:31.376 --> 39:34.856 YOU'RE GONNA REAP ABUNDANTLY WHEN YOU PLANT YOUR SEED INTO 39:34.856 --> 39:38.215 GOOD GROUND. SO AS WE HONOR GOD WITH OUR TITHES TODAY, WE'RE 39:38.215 --> 39:41.815 BEING GOOD STEWARDS OF OUR POSSESSIONS THAT GOD'S GIVEN US. 39:41.815 --> 39:44.485 USHERS, YOU CAN SERVE THE PEOPLE TODAY.

AND I HAVE WATCHED THE GROWTH OF 46:14.177 --> 46:17.746 THIS CHURCH ALL THE WAY THROUGH. I REMEMBER WHEN IN THE OTHER 46:17.746 --> 46:20.447 BUILDING THERE WERE JUST A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE.

GO JOHN, WHEN ON AUGUST 11TH? 46:40.067 --> 46:42.976 JOHN'S FIGHTING ON AUGUST 11TH. I REMEMBER WHEN JOHN WAS 46:42.976 --> 46:47.297 STANDING ON A CHAIR IN THE OTHER... THAT'S HOW FAR I GO 46:47.297 --> 46:50.476 BACK. BUT I THANK GOD FOR THAT. YOU KNOW, I'M OLDER THAN DIRT, 46:50.476 --> 46:54.797 SO... JOHN OSTEEN USED TO SAY HE WAS OLDER THAN JOB'S OLD YELLOW 46:54.797 --> 47:00.947 TURKEY. BUT ANYWAY, I'M HONORED TO BE HERE. THOSE OF YOU THAT 47:00.947 --> 47:04.757 ARE WATCHING ONLINE, LISTEN TO ME. THERE IS NO DISTANCE IN 47:04.757 --> 47:09.403 PRAYER. YOU'RE RIGHT HERE. HE'S RIGHT HERE WHERE WE ARE, AND 47:09.403 --> 47:12.407 HE'S RIGHT THERE WHERE YOU ARE. AND THERE'S A SPECIAL WORD FOR 47:12.407 --> 47:15.737 YOU TODAY. TWO WORDS OF KNOWLEDGE THAT CAME AS PASTOR 47:15.737 --> 47:19.067 DOUG WAS SPEAKING. FIRST OF ALL, THERE'S SOMEONE WHO HAS AN ULCER 47:19.067 --> 47:22.067 AND YOU'RE BEING HEALED RIGHT NOW. YOU'RE GOING TO FIND THAT 47:22.067 --> 47:25.876 BURNING SENSATION WILL BE GONE BY THE END OF THIS SERVICE. AND 47:25.876 --> 47:30.706 THE SECOND IS SOMEONE HAS HAD A LOSS OF FEELING ON THE LEFT SIDE 47:30.706 --> 47:34.726 OF YOUR JAW AND YOU'RE BEING HEALED AS WELL. WHOEVER YOU ARE, 47:34.726 --> 47:40.007 THAT FEELING IS COMING BACK NOW. IN JESUS' NAME. THANK GOD FOR 47:40.007 --> 47:43.217 THE OPERATION OF THE GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT. AND THANK GOD FOR A 47:43.217 --> 47:47.237 CHURCH WHERE THERE IS FREEDOM. AND THANK GOD FOR THE PROPHETIC 47:47.237 --> 47:50.356 MINISTRY THAT HAS GONE OUT FROM HERE AND IS GOING OUT EVERY WEEK 47:50.356 --> 47:52.514 AND I THANK GOD. YOU KNOW, THERE ARE MANY CHURCHES TODAY THAT ARE 47:52.514 --> 48:03.766 NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. THEY HAVE NO PROPHETIC VOICE. BUT 48:03.766 --> 48:09.467 THIS IS NOT ONE OF THOSE PLACES. I DO A SATURDAY NIGHT PHONE CALL 48:10.637 --> 48:13.936 AND SEVERAL HUNDRED PEOPLE, FOUR OR FIVE HUNDRED PEOPLE ARE ON 48:13.936 --> 48:16.367 THE CALL EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT. I'VE BEEN DOING IT NOW FOR ABOUT 48:16.367 --> 48:23.643 10 YEARS. I DID IT LAST NIGHT. AND I JUST FELT LAST NIGHT, AS 48:23.643 --> 48:26.686 IN MY ROOM LAST NIGHT, THAT WHEN I MADE THAT CALL, I SHOULD TALK 48:26.686 --> 48:29.717 A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MY FATHER, ORAL ROBERTS. HOW MANY HAVE 48:29.717 --> 48:35.206 HEARD OF THE NAME ORAL ROBERTS? DID YOU KNOW HE WAS MY DAD? DID 48:36.291 --> 48:42.197 YOU KNOW I'M HIS OFFSPRING? WELL, SO I MADE SOME NOTES LAST 48:42.197 --> 48:43.847 NIGHT. I WAS SITTING THERE, I WAS WATCHING, FIRST OF ALL, I 48:43.847 --> 48:49.126 WATCHED THE SOCCER MATCH. I WATCHED ENGLAND DEFEAT FRANCE. 48:49.126 --> 49:00.375 YES. AND I WAS MAKING SOME NOTES LAST NIGHT ABOUT MY DAD, AND SO 49:00.375 --> 49:03.737 I TALKED ABOUT IT LAST NIGHT ON MY CALL, AND I DIDN'T REALLY 49:03.737 --> 49:07.336 KNOW EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO THIS MORNING, BECAUSE I'M AN 49:07.336 --> 49:12.347 INSPIRATIONAL MINISTER. I DON'T MAKE PLANS THREE MONTHS IN 49:12.347 --> 49:15.556 ADVANCE WHAT I'M GOING TO DO, AND I DIDN'T COME TO BRING YOU 49:15.556 --> 49:18.226 THREE POINTS IN A POEM THIS MORNING, YOU KNOW, AND GIVE YOU 49:18.226 --> 49:20.237 A HANDSHAKE. I WANT TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN LIVE 49:20.237 --> 49:25.157 WITH, SOMETHING YOU CAN TAKE IN AND DIGEST. AND I THOUGHT LAST 49:25.157 --> 49:28.876 NIGHT AS I SHARED ABOUT MY DAD, AND AS I TOOK SOME OF THE NOTES 49:28.876 --> 49:32.027 THAT I MADE LAST NIGHT, THAT I WOULD SHARE THEM WITH YOU. SO I 49:32.027 --> 49:37.547 CALLED UP THIS MORNING, WHERE'S AMY? I HAD AMY TO GET THEM TYPED 49:37.547 --> 49:40.487 UP FOR ME, AND I JUST WANT TO SHARE SOME THINGS WITH YOU THIS 49:40.487 --> 49:44.626 MORNING THAT I SHARED LAST NIGHT, AND I'M GOING TO KIND OF 49:44.626 --> 49:46.246 USE SOME OF THE NOTES, AND I'M GOING TO BE KIND OF 49:46.246 --> 49:48.766 EXTEMPORANEOUS, OKAY? JUST TALKING, BY THE WAY, IT'S SO 49:48.766 --> 49:53.356 GOOD TO SEE YOU, MY DEAR SISTER. GOD BLESS YOU. THANKS, MAMA. 49:54.976 --> 49:58.367 PRAISE GOD. I REMEMBER YOUR DEAR HUSBAND. I REMEMBER WHAT 49:58.367 --> 50:02.849 HAPPENED IN HIS LIFE. I HAD TO BE A PART OF THAT. PRAISE GOD. 50:02.849 --> 50:08.447 WHAT MY FATHER, ORAL ROBERTS, MEANT TO ME. NOW AS YOU CAN 50:08.447 --> 50:12.257 IMAGINE, I'M SURE, WHEREVER I GO, I'M ASKED THE QUESTION, 50:12.257 --> 50:16.817 "WHAT WAS IT LIKE TO BE THE SON OF ORAL ROBERTS?" I GET THAT 50:16.817 --> 50:20.626 WHEREVER I GO. PEOPLE TELL ME I LOOK LIKE MY DAD. WELL, JESUS 50:20.626 --> 50:22.306 SAID, "IF YOU'VE SEEN ME, YOU'VE SEEN THE FATHER.” 50:26.306 --> 50:30.927 SO, BUT PEOPLE ASK ME, "WHAT WAS IT LIKE?" WELL, IT WAS GOOD AND 50:30.927 --> 50:36.387 IT WAS BAD, OKAY? IT WAS BOTH. IT WAS NORMAL, YOU KNOW. MY 50:36.387 --> 50:40.106 ANSWER IS VERY SIMPLE. BEFORE THE WORLD KNEW HIM AS A HEALING 50:40.106 --> 50:44.996 EVANGELIST, BEFORE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE HEARD HIM PREACH AND TENS 50:44.996 --> 50:50.186 OF THOUSANDS RECEIVED THE LAYING ON OF HANDS, HE WAS JUST DAD TO 50:50.186 --> 50:57.356 ME. AND HE WASN'T JUST A GREAT PREACHER. HE WAS A MAN WHO LOVED 50:57.356 --> 51:02.217 GOD WITH ALL OF HIS HEART. AND HE TAUGHT ME THAT JESUS IS THE 51:02.217 --> 51:08.157 SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND FOREVER. AND THAT WHAT HE DID, 51:08.157 --> 51:14.487 HE'S STILL DOING. HE HASN'T CHANGED. HE'S NOT A BYGONE GOD. 51:14.487 --> 51:18.657 HE'S A RIGHT NOW GOD. AND HE MEETS YOU AT THE POINT OF YOUR 51:18.657 --> 51:23.007 NEED. AND THE POINT OF YOUR NEED IS WHEREVER YOU NEED IT MOST. 51:23.007 --> 51:27.086 THAT'S WHERE HE IS. HE'S CLOSER TO YOU THAN THE VERY BREATH IN 51:27.086 --> 51:31.887 YOUR LUNGS. AND HE TAUGHT ME THINGS LIKE THAT. HE TAUGHT ME, 51:31.887 --> 51:35.666 HE BELIEVED GOD WITH EVERY FIBER OF HIS BEING. AND I WATCHED HIM 51:35.666 --> 51:39.117 AS HE PREACHED, AND I WATCHED HIM AS HE PRAYED FOR THE SICK. 51:39.117 --> 51:42.836 AND I WOULD SIT OVER ON THIS SIDE IN THAT TENT, GREAT TENT 51:42.836 --> 51:46.467 CATHEDRAL, AND I WOULD WAIT FOR HIM TO BEGIN TO PRAY FOR THE 51:46.467 --> 51:49.257 SICK. AND OFTENTIMES HE WOULD CALL ME AND HAVE ME COME AND 51:49.257 --> 51:51.806 STAND BESIDE HIM. I DIDN'T REALIZE IN THOSE DAYS AS A 51:51.806 --> 51:54.447 LITTLE BOY THAT GOD WAS PREPARING ME FOR THE HEALING 51:54.447 --> 51:58.197 MINISTRY. I DIDN'T KNOW. I JUST LOVED MY DADDY, AND I LOVED TO 51:58.197 --> 52:00.777 BE WITH HIM, AND I LOVED TO HEAR HIM PREACH, AND HE PREACHED 52:00.777 --> 52:06.086 FOREVER. HE DIDN'T PREACH BY THE CLOCK, HE PREACHED BY THE 52:06.086 --> 52:11.967 CALENDAR. HE WOULD PREACH AN HOUR, AN HOUR AND A HALF, 52:11.967 --> 52:14.936 SOMETIMES HE WOULD PREACH TWO HOURS, AND I WOULD SAY, "WHY, 52:14.936 --> 52:18.536 DADDY, WHY? "WHY DO YOU PREACH SO LONG?" NOW, THIS WAS IN THE 52:18.536 --> 52:21.956 1950S, AND HE SAID, "WELL, THE REASON I PREACH SO LONG IS 52:21.956 --> 52:27.146 BECAUSE TODAY, MANY CHRISTIANS DON'T KNOW THAT GOD IS A GOOD 52:27.146 --> 52:32.217 GOD. THEY DON'T KNOW THAT JESUS IS A HEALING JESUS, AND THEY'VE 52:32.217 --> 52:37.527 BEEN TAUGHT A GOSPEL OF NO POWER. AND HE SAID, "I'VE GOT TO 52:37.527 --> 52:40.407 BUILD FAITH "BECAUSE I'M GONNA PRAY FOR THEM, "AND I'M GONNA 52:40.407 --> 52:44.277 PRAY FOR THEIR HEALING." MANY OF THEM, THEY GO TO CHURCH, THEY GO 52:44.277 --> 52:47.367 OUT OF GUILT, THEY GO BECAUSE THEY WANNA BE SEEN, THEY WANNA 52:47.367 --> 52:49.556 MAKE A GOOD IMPRESSION, THEY WANNA MAKE A BUSINESS 52:49.556 --> 52:53.757 CONNECTION, BUT THEY DON'T KNOW THE LORD. AND I WANT THEM TO GET 52:53.757 --> 52:57.447 TO KNOW HIM. AND THEN I WANNA PRAY THE PRAYER OF FAITH BECAUSE 52:57.447 --> 52:59.967 THE PRAYER OF FAITH WILL SAVE THE SICK AND THE LORD WILL RAISE 52:59.967 --> 53:04.166 HIM UP. AND SO HE EXPLAINED THAT TO ME AND I BEGAN TO UNDERSTAND 53:04.166 --> 53:08.847 WHY HE PREACHED SO LONG, ESPECIALLY WHEN I WAS LITTLE AND 53:08.847 --> 53:11.757 I COULDN'T WAIT. I'D SQUIRM IN MY SEAT JUST WAITING FOR HIM TO 53:11.757 --> 53:14.367 PRAY FOR THE SICK. AND I THINK THE REASON WHY HE PRAYED WITH 53:14.367 --> 53:18.237 SUCH COMPASSION IS BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN SICK HIMSELF. AND BY 53:18.237 --> 53:21.836 THE WAY, SOMEONE WHO'S LOST HEARING IN YOUR LEFT EAR, YOU'RE 53:21.836 --> 53:26.217 BEING HEALED RIGHT NOW. HEARING IS COMING INTO A LEFT EAR RIGHT 53:26.217 --> 53:31.856 NOW. NOW YOU KNOW, THE LORD CAN INTERRUPT ANY TIME WITH A 53:31.856 --> 53:35.907 HEALING MINISTRY. NOW I'VE TOLD GOD WHAT TO DO, I'VE TOLD HIM 53:35.907 --> 53:38.637 WHEN TO DO IT, WHO TO DO IT TO. HE'S NEVER DONE IT MY WAY ONCE. 53:39.657 --> 53:44.666 HE DOES IT HIS WAY. AND SO SOMEONE'S LEFT EAR IS BEING 53:44.666 --> 53:47.067 HEALED RIGHT NOW. AND I'M GONNA GET INTO THAT A LITTLE BIT LATER 53:47.067 --> 53:51.420 ON IN THE SERVICE. HOPE YOU'RE NOT IN A HURRY TODAY. YOU KNOW, 53:51.420 --> 53:57.177 I'M LIKE MY FATHER, I'LL BE THROUGH BY TWO OR THREE. BUT HE 53:57.177 --> 53:59.606 PRAYED WITH SUCH COMPASSION BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN SICK 53:59.606 --> 54:05.547 HIMSELF. IN 1935, WHEN HE WAS 17 YEARS OLD, THE PAPERS HAD BEEN 54:05.547 --> 54:09.686 SIGNED TO TAKE HIM TO THE TUBERCULOSIS SANITARIUM, WHICH 54:09.686 --> 54:13.617 AT THAT TIME WAS IN THE LITTLE TOWN OF TALLAHANNIE, OKLAHOMA. 54:13.617 --> 54:16.286 AND WHEN YOU WENT INTO THE TUBERCULOSIS SANITARIUM, YOU 54:16.286 --> 54:21.987 DIDN'T COME OUT. HE HAD TUBERCULOSIS. IT WAS THE SCOURGE 54:21.987 --> 54:27.086 OF THE NATIVE AMERICAN INDIAN PEOPLE. AND HE HAD CHOCTAW AND 54:27.086 --> 54:33.806 CHEROKEE BLOOD IN HIM, AS DO I. THOSE PAPERS HAD BEEN SIGNED. HE 54:33.806 --> 54:36.896 HAD BEEN IN THE BED FOR FIVE MONTHS, HEMORRHAGING, SPITTING 54:36.896 --> 54:42.266 UP BLOOD SO MUCH THEY HAD TO RE-PAPER THE WALLS. AND BECAUSE 54:42.266 --> 54:45.567 GOD HEALED HIM, WHEN A MAN BY THE NAME OF BROTHER GEORGE 54:45.567 --> 54:49.106 MUNCIE LAID HIS HANDS ON HIM AND DIDN'T PRAY A PRAYER, LORD, IF 54:49.106 --> 54:50.067 IT BE YOUR WILL. 54:51.146 --> 54:55.894 INSTEAD, HE PRAYED, YOU FOUL, TORMENTING TUBERCULOSIS. I 54:55.894 --> 54:59.217 ADJURE YOU BY THE AUTHORITY OF THE NAME OF JESUS, COME OUT OF 54:59.217 --> 55:04.106 THIS BOY. AND THAT DISEASE CAME OUT AND HE WAS HEALED. BECAUSE 55:04.106 --> 55:06.597 HE HAD BEEN HEALED AND BECAUSE HE HAD HAD A NEAR-DEATH 55:06.597 --> 55:10.556 EXPERIENCE, HE HAD A COMPASSION FOR SICK PEOPLE. I DON'T KNOW 55:10.556 --> 55:13.197 ANYONE IN MY WHOLE LIFE THAT I HAVE KNOWN THAT HAD THE 55:13.197 --> 55:19.016 COMPASSION FOR THE SICK. I REMEMBER ONE NIGHT HE HAD GONE 55:19.016 --> 55:23.007 TO A LITTLE INVALID TENT, WE CALLED IT, AN EXTRA TENT THAT WE 55:23.007 --> 55:26.606 HAD WHERE PEOPLE WHO WERE TOO SICK TO STAND IN THE PRAYER LINE 55:26.606 --> 55:29.606 WOULD COME AND RECEIVE PRAYER AND HE WOULD ALWAYS GO IN THERE 55:29.606 --> 55:33.746 FIRST BEFORE HE PRAYED FOR THE BIG CROWD IN THE AUDITORIUM OR 55:33.746 --> 55:37.166 IN THE TENT. AND THERE WAS A MAN WHO HAD BEEN BROUGHT ON A GURNEY 55:37.166 --> 55:41.126 AND HE HAD CANCER. AND HE WAS IN THE FINAL STAGES. AND THE SMELL 55:41.126 --> 55:44.606 OF THE CANCER WAS SO FOUL THAT WHEN HE LEANED OVER TO PRAY FOR 55:44.606 --> 55:48.657 HIM, HE JUST VOMITED ALL OVER THE FLOOR. AND HE TURNED AND 55:48.657 --> 55:51.324 WALKED OUT OF THE LITTLE TENT AND LEFT ME STANDING THERE, AND 55:51.324 --> 55:55.527 I'M ABOUT THIS HIGH, LEFT ME STANDING THERE BY MYSELF. AND I 55:55.527 --> 55:58.976 DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. A FEW MINUTES LATER, HE CAME RUNNING 55:58.976 --> 56:02.159 BACK IN AND HE GOT UP ON THE GURNEY, THE HOSPITAL GURNEY WITH 56:02.159 --> 56:06.237 THE MAN, TOOK HIM IN HIS ARMS AND PRAYED FOR HEALING. AND I 56:06.237 --> 56:09.237 NEVER KNEW WHAT HAPPENED. I NEVER KNEW WHAT THE STORY WAS. 56:09.237 --> 56:12.746 BUT WHEN MY MOTHER PASSED, I FLEW OUT TO CALIFORNIA TO BE 56:12.746 --> 56:15.146 WITH HIM AFTER THE MEMORIAL SERVICE AND HE WAS LIVING IN 56:15.146 --> 56:19.586 CALIFORNIA AT THE TIME. AND WE SAT DOWN AND HAD A TALK OF 56:19.586 --> 56:22.947 REMINISCING OVER THE YEARS AND WE REMEMBERED THAT NIGHT AND I 56:22.947 --> 56:26.666 SAID TO HIM, "DAD, I NEVER KNEW WHAT HAPPENED THAT NIGHT. "I 56:26.666 --> 56:29.157 NEVER UNDERSTOOD WHAT HAPPENED, WHY YOU LEFT AND WHY YOU CAME 56:29.157 --> 56:32.606 BACK." HE SAID, "WELL, I LEFT BECAUSE THE PRESSURE, THE 56:32.606 --> 56:37.827 STRESS, THE MEDIA WAS AFTER ME. IT WAS SO HEAVY ON ME. AND 56:37.827 --> 56:40.617 WHEN I SMELLED THAT SMELL AND WHEN I VOMITED, I JUST SAID TO 56:40.617 --> 56:43.077 THE LORD, 'I'VE HAD ENOUGH. 'I'M NOT GONNA DO THIS 56:43.077 --> 56:47.036 ANYMORE.'" AND HE SAID, "THAT'S WHEN I WALKED OUT OF THE TENT." 56:47.036 --> 56:50.246 I SAID, "YEAH, BUT DAD, YOU CAME BACK." HE SAID, "I CAME BACK 56:50.246 --> 56:52.887 BECAUSE WHEN I GOT OUTSIDE THE TENT, THE LORD SPOKE TO ME." I 56:52.887 --> 56:55.797 SAID, "WELL, WHAT'D HE SAY?" HE SAID, "SON, IF YOU'RE NOT 56:55.797 --> 56:58.706 WILLING TO LAY HANDS ON HIM, YOU'RE NOT WORTHY TO BE MY 56:58.706 --> 57:02.965 SON." HE SAID, "THAT'S WHEN I CAME BACK "AND I TOOK HIM IN MY 57:02.965 --> 57:08.396 ARMS." THAT WAS COMPASSION. COMPASSION IS DIFFERENT THAN 57:08.396 --> 57:14.036 SYMPATHY. SYMPATHY IS, I'M SO SORRY. I WISH THERE WAS 57:14.036 --> 57:17.786 SOMETHING THAT I COULD DO. THAT'S SYMPATHY, THAT'S NOT 57:17.786 --> 57:24.056 COMPASSION. COMPASSION IS AN IRRESISTIBLE URGE TO REACH IN 57:24.056 --> 57:30.027 AND TAKE HOLD OF THE PROBLEM AND PULL IT OUT. THAT'S COMPASSION. 57:30.027 --> 57:34.137 HE HAD COMPASSION BECAUSE HE KNEW WHAT NEARLY DYING WAS LIKE. 57:35.547 --> 57:38.547 AND I REMEMBER THOSE DAYS, I REMEMBER THOSE STORIES, I 57:38.547 --> 57:41.606 REMEMBER ALL THOSE THINGS THAT HE POURED INTO ME. HE TAUGHT ME 57:41.606 --> 57:47.367 THAT FAITH IS NOT WISHFUL THINKING. HE TAUGHT ME THAT 57:47.367 --> 57:50.757 FAITH HAS BEEN GIVEN TO EVERY PERSON. THE BIBLE SAYS GOD HATH 57:50.757 --> 57:56.487 GIVEN TO EVERY MAN, EVERY WOMAN, THE MEASURE, NOT A MEASURE, BUT 57:56.487 --> 58:00.717 THE MEASURE OF FAITH. TODAY, YOU HAVE ALL THE FAITH THAT YOU 58:00.717 --> 58:04.646 NEED. YOU DON'T NEED TO GET MORE FAITH, YOU JUST NEED TO USE THE 58:04.646 --> 58:09.447 FAITH THAT YOU'VE GOT. A MAN SAID TO ME, "RICHARD, I'VE GOT 58:09.447 --> 58:10.976 ALL THE FAITH IN THE WORLD." I SAID, "YEAH, THAT'S YOUR 58:10.976 --> 58:15.806 PROBLEM. "YOU'VE STILL GOT IT." FAITH WAS NOT INTENDED TO LIE 58:15.806 --> 58:20.547 DORMANT IN YOUR HEART. FAITH WAS INTENDED TO BE RELEASED. AND 58:20.547 --> 58:23.067 WHEN YOU COME TO LORD OF HOSTS CHURCH, YOU DON'T JUST SIT THERE 58:23.067 --> 58:26.907 AND GIVE THE PASTOR A GOOD HEARING. YOU LET YOUR FAITH GO. 58:26.907 --> 58:31.197 AND YOU BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL MOVE IN YOUR LIFE. THAT'S WHY 58:31.197 --> 58:34.887 YOU'RE HERE. THANK GOD FOR THAT. HE TAUGHT ME THAT. HE TAUGHT ME 58:34.887 --> 58:38.547 ABOUT FAITH. HE DIDN'T JUST PREACH. HE BELIEVED IT WITH 58:38.547 --> 58:43.077 EVERY FIBER OF HIS BEING. AND HE OFTEN SAID THAT GOD MOVES WITH 58:43.077 --> 58:48.146 CONFIDENCE EVEN WHEN CIRCUMSTANCES MAY SAY SOMETHING 58:48.146 --> 58:50.967 DIFFERENT. AND MANY HAVE COME TODAY AND YOU'VE GOT 58:50.967 --> 58:55.766 CIRCUMSTANCES IN YOUR LIFE. EVERYBODY HAS CIRCUMSTANCES. 58:55.766 --> 59:02.757 EVERYBODY EITHER HAS A PROBLEM OR THEY ARE A PROBLEM OR THEY 59:02.757 --> 59:10.347 LIVE WITH ONE. JUST THINK ABOUT WHAT CATEGORY YOU FIT IN. HE 59:10.347 --> 59:17.847 ALSO TAUGHT ME THAT EVERY PERSON MATTERS. THAT'S WHY HE TOOK THEM 59:17.847 --> 59:23.606 AS THEY CAME. THERE WERE NO RESERVED SEATS. FIRST COME, 59:23.606 --> 59:28.197 FIRST SERVE. WHOEVER CAME AND CAME EARLY ENOUGH GOT TO SIT IN 59:28.197 --> 59:30.777 THE FRONT. AND IF YOU CAME LATE, YOU'RE GONNA GET, YOU'LL BE 59:30.777 --> 59:34.376 LUCKY IF YOU GOT A SEAT BACK IN THE BACK. IT DIDN'T MATTER WHO 59:34.376 --> 59:40.106 YOU WERE BECAUSE GOD IS NO RESPECTER OF PERSONS. NOW, THIS 59:40.106 --> 59:43.376 WAS THE 1950S AND EARLY 1960S AND WE LIVED IN A DIFFERENT 59:43.376 --> 59:47.396 COUNTRY IN THOSE DAYS. IN THOSE DAYS, THERE WAS HEAVY, HEAVY 59:47.396 --> 59:53.306 SEGREGATION IN THIS NATION. AND THE PASTORS CAME TO MY FATHER 59:53.306 --> 59:57.416 AND SAID, THEY CALL THEM THE COLORED PEOPLE IN THOSE DAYS. 59:57.416 --> 01:00:00.507 THEY CAN'T SIT IN THE FRONT. AND MY DAD SAID, "OH, YES, THEY 01:00:00.507 --> 01:00:02.907 CAN." THEY SIT ANYWHERE THEY WANT. AND THEY SAID, "WE'LL 01:00:02.907 --> 01:00:06.686 BOYCOTT YOUR CRUSADE." HE SAID, "YOU JUST GO AHEAD AND TRY. 01:00:06.686 --> 01:00:14.097 "WE'LL CARRY YOU OUT." I REMEMBER DAYS LIKE THAT. I 01:00:14.097 --> 01:00:18.507 REMEMBER WHEN HE WOULD ALLOW, NO MATTER WHO YOU WERE, NO MATTER 01:00:18.507 --> 01:00:23.666 WHAT YOU'D BEEN THROUGH, TO COME INTO THAT PRAYER LINE. IN THE 01:00:23.666 --> 01:00:26.186 EARLY '70S, WE WERE MAKING OUR TELEVISION PROGRAMS OUT IN 01:00:26.186 --> 01:00:30.956 HOLLYWOOD AT THE NBC STUDIOS. THAT WAS THE DAYS WHEN THE TOP 01:00:30.956 --> 01:00:34.827 PROGRAMS IN THE COUNTRY, THE VARIETY PROGRAMS WERE THE DEAN 01:00:34.827 --> 01:00:38.067 MARTIN SHOW, AND SOME OF YOU ARE OLD ENOUGH. SOME OF YOU LOOK 01:00:38.067 --> 01:00:43.552 LIKE YOU'RE OLD ENOUGH. THAT'S WHEN THE DEAN MARTIN SHOW WAS ON 01:00:43.552 --> 01:00:47.603 AND THE LAUGH-IN SHOW WAS ON AND THE JERRY LEWIS SHOW AND THE 01:00:47.603 --> 01:00:51.382 ANDY WILLIAMS SHOW AND THE MIDNIGHT SPECIAL WAS ON AND ALL 01:00:51.382 --> 01:00:54.083 THOSE SHOWS WERE BEING VIDEOTAPED RIGHT THERE AT THE 01:00:54.083 --> 01:00:56.152 NBC STUDIOS AND WE WERE RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. SO 01:00:56.152 --> 01:01:00.592 YOU NEVER KNEW. THEY HAD A KIND OF A COMBINED MAKEUP ROOM, SO 01:01:00.592 --> 01:01:03.413 YOU NEVER KNEW WHO YOU'RE GOING TO BE SITTING NEXT TO WHEN YOU 01:01:03.413 --> 01:01:07.012 GOT MADE UP FOR TELEVISION, YOU KNOW, AND YOU'D BE SITTING NEXT 01:01:07.012 --> 01:01:10.492 TO THE STARS OF LAUGH-IN OR THE STARS THAT WERE GOING TO BE ON 01:01:10.492 --> 01:01:15.353 THE DEAN MARTIN SHOW OR WHATEVER SHOW WAS ON. SO YOU GOT TO TALK 01:01:15.353 --> 01:01:17.152 TO THEM, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE YOU'RE SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO 01:01:17.152 --> 01:01:21.050 THEM. AND SO WE WERE TAPING ONE DAY OVER IN THE STUDIO AND THE 01:01:21.050 --> 01:01:23.782 NEXT STUDIO NEXT DOOR WAS THE LAUGH-IN SET, ROWAN AND MARTIN'S 01:01:23.782 --> 01:01:26.902 LAUGH-IN. AND OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, GOLDIE HAWN AND ALL THE 01:01:26.902 --> 01:01:31.523 STARS THAT WERE THERE. AND HE SAID TO ME, WE HAD A BREAK, HE 01:01:31.523 --> 01:01:33.802 SAID TO ME, "RICHARD, LET'S GO ACROSS THE HALL "AND SEE WHAT 01:01:33.802 --> 01:01:38.393 THEY'RE DOING IN LAUGH-IN." SO BECAUSE WE KNEW ALL THE NBC 01:01:38.393 --> 01:01:42.262 TECHNICAL CREW, WE COULD GET IN. SO WE CAME IN THE SIDE DOOR AND 01:01:42.262 --> 01:01:45.023 THEY WERE DOING A SKIT AND THE SPECIAL GUEST WAS SAMMY DAVIS 01:01:45.023 --> 01:01:49.222 JR. AND SO WE STOOD THERE AND WATCHED FOR A MINUTE AND ALL OF 01:01:49.222 --> 01:01:55.583 A SUDDEN, SAMMY CAUGHT MY DAD'S EYE. AND HE SAW THAT IT WAS MY 01:01:55.583 --> 01:02:01.012 DAD STANDING THERE. AND SAMMY BROKE OUT OF CHARACTER, WALKED 01:02:01.012 --> 01:02:06.623 OVER TO MY DAD CRYING, GOT DOWN ON HIS KNEES, THREW HIS ARMS 01:02:06.623 --> 01:02:11.333 AROUND MY DAD'S LEGS, AND SAID, "ORAL ROBERTS, I'VE WATCHED YOU 01:02:11.333 --> 01:02:20.572 ALL MY LIFE. PLEASE TELL ME, IS GOD REAL?" AND MY DAD PUT HIS 01:02:20.572 --> 01:02:24.443 HAND ON SAMMY'S SHOULDER AND SAID, "SAMMY, HE'S MORE REAL 01:02:24.443 --> 01:02:28.253 THAN THE BREATH IN YOUR LUNGS." NOW YOU COULD HAVE HEARD A PIN 01:02:28.253 --> 01:02:36.952 DROP IN THAT STUDIO. THAT'S THE FATHER THAT I KNEW, HAD GREAT 01:02:36.952 --> 01:02:43.882 COMPASSION. COMPASSION IS AN IRRESISTIBLE URGE TO REMOVE THE 01:02:43.882 --> 01:02:48.083 PROBLEM, NO MATTER WHAT THE PROBLEM IS, BUT TO REMOVE IT. HE 01:02:48.083 --> 01:02:51.682 TAUGHT ME TO HAVE PERSEVERANCE. HE TAUGHT ME NOT TO QUIT. 01:02:52.853 --> 01:02:56.603 ANYBODY CAN QUIT. IT'S EASY TO QUIT. YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE ANY 01:02:56.603 --> 01:03:01.853 FAITH TO QUIT. IT'S HARD TO FOLLOW THROUGH. NOW, HE PUT A 01:03:01.853 --> 01:03:06.083 GOLF CLUB IN MY HAND WHEN I WAS FIVE YEARS OLD. I PLAYED GOLF 01:03:06.083 --> 01:03:13.313 ALL--I'M 77. I PLAYED GOLF 72 YEARS, AND I'M PRETTY GOOD. I 01:03:13.313 --> 01:03:16.222 WON A LOT OF JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIPS WHEN I WAS A KID. 01:03:16.222 --> 01:03:22.583 I PLAYED GOLF IN HIGH SCHOOL AND COLLEGE. AND HE WAS A MERCILESS 01:03:22.583 --> 01:03:27.802 TASKMASTER. HE WOULD NOT LET ME HOLD THE CLUB THE WAY I WANTED 01:03:27.802 --> 01:03:32.242 TO HOLD IT. HE WOULD NOT LET ME STAND THE WAY I WANTED TO STAND. 01:03:33.563 --> 01:03:40.523 HE FORCED ME TO LEARN PROPERLY. HE FORCED ME TO STAY DOWN AND 01:03:40.523 --> 01:03:46.733 FOLLOW THROUGH. HE SAID IT'S JUST LIKE LIFE. IN LIFE, YOU 01:03:46.733 --> 01:03:51.623 STAY DOWN AND YOU FOLLOW THROUGH. YOU PRAY AND YOU DO 01:03:51.623 --> 01:03:56.992 WHAT YOU PRAYED. AND HE POURED THAT INTO ME. AND HE WORE ME 01:03:56.992 --> 01:04:01.523 OUT. AND IF I WOULD HIT A BAD SHOT IN THE ROUND, HE WOULD MAKE 01:04:01.523 --> 01:04:06.652 ME EMPTY MY BAG AND HIT OTHER SHOTS UNTIL I HIT IT RIGHT. EVEN 01:04:06.652 --> 01:04:09.143 THOUGH THE GUYS BEHIND US WERE YELLING AND SWEARING AND 01:04:09.143 --> 01:04:13.222 COMPLAINING AT US. IF I DIDN'T GET THE BALL OUT OF THE SAND 01:04:13.222 --> 01:04:17.003 TRAP ON THE FIRST SHOT, I HAD TO EMPTY MY BAG AND PUT ALL OTHER 01:04:17.003 --> 01:04:21.083 BALLS UNTIL I COULD GET TWO OR THREE IN A ROW OUT. HE FORCED 01:04:21.083 --> 01:04:28.672 ME, HE SAID, "SOMEDAY YOU'LL BE GRATEFUL." AND WHEN I WAS 14, I 01:04:28.672 --> 01:04:29.393 BEAT HIM. 01:04:31.943 --> 01:04:40.643 FOR THE FIRST TIME. AND HE WAS MAD AND GLAD AT THE SAME TIME. I 01:04:40.643 --> 01:04:45.592 LOOKED AT HIM AND I SAID, "DAD, YOU'LL NEVER BEAT ME AGAIN." AND 01:04:45.592 --> 01:04:52.672 HE DIDN'T. BUT HE TAUGHT ME, YOU STAY DOWN AND YOU FOLLOW 01:04:52.672 --> 01:04:55.943 THROUGH. HE SAID, "BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T STAY DOWN, "YOUR CLUB 01:04:55.943 --> 01:04:58.972 HEAD'S GONNA OPEN UP AND THE BALL'S GONNA GO THAT WAY INSTEAD 01:04:58.972 --> 01:05:02.902 OF GOING THIS WAY. YOU GOTTA STAY DOWN AND FOLLOW THROUGH. 01:05:02.902 --> 01:05:09.112 IT'S JUST LIKE LIFE. THAT'S WHY GOLF IS SO MUCH LIKE LIFE, 01:05:09.112 --> 01:05:13.853 'CAUSE IT'S DIFFERENT EVERY DAY. HE TAUGHT ME TO PERSEVERE. HE 01:05:13.853 --> 01:05:18.472 TAUGHT ME NOT TO QUIT, BUT TO STAY WITH IT NO MATTER WHAT 01:05:18.472 --> 01:05:22.492 PEOPLE SAID, NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE THOUGHT, NO MATTER WHAT 01:05:22.492 --> 01:05:27.413 PEOPLE WROTE. HE TOLD ME TO LISTEN TO GOD AND NOT WORRY 01:05:27.413 --> 01:05:31.672 ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE THINK ABOUT YOU. WE NEED A LITTLE BIT MORE 01:05:31.672 --> 01:05:36.262 OF THAT TODAY, DON'T WE? PRAISE GOD. I WATCHED HIM PRAY. 01:05:36.262 --> 01:05:42.172 PROBABLY THE GREATEST EXAMPLE WAS THE PRAYER, THE PRAYER LIFE. 01:05:42.172 --> 01:05:46.012 AND HE WOULD GET MAD AT GOD. ANYBODY HERE EVER GOT MAD AT 01:05:46.012 --> 01:05:50.152 GOD? PUT YOUR HAND UP. THREE OF YOU, OKAY. REST OF YOU ARE 01:05:50.152 --> 01:05:56.302 LYING. YOU KNOW YOU GO TO HELL FOR LYING. EVERYBODY GETS MAD AT 01:05:56.302 --> 01:05:59.693 GOD. YOU GET MAD AT HIM, I GET MAD AT HIM. YOU SAY THINGS THAT 01:05:59.693 --> 01:06:02.543 YOU WISH YOU HADN'T SAID. NOW DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT. YOU 01:06:02.543 --> 01:06:06.472 KNOW I'M TELLING THE TRUTH. I REMEMBER ONCE MY WIFE AND I WENT 01:06:06.472 --> 01:06:09.811 UP TO HIS HOUSE AND MY MOTHER WAS IN THE KITCHEN. I SAID, 01:06:09.811 --> 01:06:12.583 "WHERE'S DAD?" SHE SAID, "HE'S BACK IN THE BEDROOM." SO I 01:06:12.583 --> 01:06:14.302 STARTED BACK THERE. SHE SAID, "I WOULDN'T GO BACK THERE IF I WERE 01:06:14.302 --> 01:06:18.563 YOU." I SAID, "WHY?" SHE SAID, "BECAUSE HE AND GOD AREN'T 01:06:18.563 --> 01:06:22.972 TALKING." AND SHE SAID, "THERE'S ALL KINDS OF SOUNDS "GOING ON 01:06:22.972 --> 01:06:26.603 BACK THERE, "AND I KNOW HE'S SAYING SOME ROUGH THINGS. "I 01:06:26.603 --> 01:06:29.092 WOULDN'T GO BACK THERE IF I WERE YOU." AND LINDSAY SAID, "I THINK 01:06:29.092 --> 01:06:35.693 WE OUGHT TO GO HOME." WHICH WE DID. HE WAS LIKE THAT. GOD WOULD 01:06:35.693 --> 01:06:37.757 TELL HIM TO DO SOMETHING, HE DIDN'T HAVE ANY MONEY TO DO IT, 01:06:39.293 --> 01:06:45.652 AND HE'D GET MAD AT GOD, BUT THEN HE'D REPENT AND OBEY GOD. 01:06:45.652 --> 01:06:50.992 HE TAUGHT ME TO OBEY GOD AND STAY LITTLE IN MY OWN EYES. 01:06:53.123 --> 01:06:56.092 DON'T GET THE BIG HEAD, DON'T THINK YOU'RE THE GREATEST THING 01:06:56.092 --> 01:07:02.123 SINCE SLICED BREAD. HE TAUGHT ME TO STAY WITH IT AND STAY LITTLE, 01:07:02.123 --> 01:07:07.822 STAY HUMBLE. TAUGHT ME THAT I'M NOT A STAR. I'M JUST A HUMAN 01:07:07.822 --> 01:07:13.313 BEING. I PUT MY PANTS ON ONE LEG AT A TIME. AS A MATTER OF FACT, 01:07:13.313 --> 01:07:16.552 I GOT THE BUCKLE ON MY PANTS ON THE INSIDE BECAUSE I LOST A 01:07:16.552 --> 01:07:21.893 BUTTON THIS MORNING. SO I'VE GOT IT FOLDED INSIDE. YOU CAN'T SEE 01:07:21.893 --> 01:07:24.143 IT, BUT I GOT THIS LITTLE FLAP FOLDED INSIDE BECAUSE I DON'T 01:07:24.143 --> 01:07:29.030 HAVE A BUTTON RIGHT HERE. I'M JUST NORMAL. IF YOU DON'T 01:07:29.030 --> 01:07:34.402 BELIEVE ME, ASK LINDSAY. YOU KNOW, I HAVE A BACHELOR'S 01:07:34.402 --> 01:07:38.123 DEGREE. I HAVE AN EARNED MASTER'S DEGREE. I HAVE AN 01:07:38.123 --> 01:07:41.061 EARNED DOCTORATE. WHEN I GOT MY MASTER'S DEGREE, I CAME HOME AND 01:07:41.061 --> 01:07:46.463 SAID, "LINDSAY, YOU CAN JUST CALL ME MASTER." AND SHE SAID, 01:07:46.463 --> 01:07:52.702 "WELL, MASTER, TAKE OUT THE TRASH." AND THAT WAS THE END OF 01:07:52.702 --> 01:07:58.913 THAT. BUT I HAVE ANOTHER DEGREE, AND THAT IS SITTING AT THE FEET 01:07:58.913 --> 01:08:03.293 OF A MODERN-DAY APOSTLE, AN EVANGELIST IN THE HEALING 01:08:03.293 --> 01:08:08.543 MINISTRY. MY FATHER AND I HAD A ROCKY RELATIONSHIP, ESPECIALLY 01:08:08.543 --> 01:08:11.932 AS I GOT INTO MY TEEN YEARS. I'D LEARNED HOW TO PLAY THE GUITAR 01:08:11.932 --> 01:08:15.322 BY THE TIME I WAS 14 OR 15, AND I WAS SINGING IN A ROCK BAND. 01:08:15.322 --> 01:08:17.453 AND THAT'S THE LAST THING THEY WANTED ME TO DO BECAUSE I WAS 01:08:17.453 --> 01:08:20.002 INVOLVED IN A LOT OF OTHER THINGS THAT I WON'T DESCRIBE. 01:08:21.172 --> 01:08:28.462 AND HE WANTED ME TO USE MY TALENT FOR THE LORD. AND I 01:08:28.462 --> 01:08:32.903 WANTED TO GO TO LAS VEGAS. I WANTED TO SING IN THE CLUBS AND 01:08:32.903 --> 01:08:36.502 I WAS SINGING IN A BAND AND I WANTED TO DO ALL THESE THINGS ON 01:08:36.502 --> 01:08:40.432 MY OWN. I WAS TIRED OF THE JOKES. I WAS TIRED OF THE 01:08:40.432 --> 01:08:44.422 CRITICISM. I WAS TIRED OF THE TEACHERS AND THE STUDENTS AND 01:08:44.422 --> 01:08:47.932 ALL THAT THEY DID BECAUSE I WAS ROALD ROBERTS' SON. I WAS TIRED 01:08:47.932 --> 01:08:53.063 OF IT. AND I TOLD MY DAD, "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY LIFE." AND 01:08:53.063 --> 01:08:55.103 THAT'S WHAT HE SAID, "I'M TRYING TO GET THE HELL OUT OF YOUR 01:08:55.103 --> 01:09:02.842 LIFE." [CONGREGATION LAUGHING] AND WE WERE ESTRANGED, AND FOR 01:09:02.842 --> 01:09:09.203 SEVERAL YEARS, WE DIDN'T SPEAK. BUT THE DAY CAME WHEN THAT ALL 01:09:09.203 --> 01:09:13.372 CHANGED. I HAD COME HOME FROM A TRIP WHERE I'D BEEN SINGING IN 01:09:13.372 --> 01:09:17.393 CHICAGO, AND I WAS FLAT ON MY BACK IN THE BED BECAUSE I'D LOST 01:09:17.393 --> 01:09:19.882 MY VOICE, I WAS RAGING WITH FEVER, AND HE CAME IN TO PRAY 01:09:19.882 --> 01:09:27.922 FOR ME. AND SUDDENLY A WALL WAS TORN DOWN. AND HE LAID, HE 01:09:27.922 --> 01:09:31.432 REACHED OUT TO LAY HIS HAND ON ME. AND YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND, 01:09:31.432 --> 01:09:35.363 SOMETHING HAPPENED WHEN ORAL ROBERTS LAID HANDS ON PEOPLE. 01:09:35.363 --> 01:09:41.302 GOD USED HIS RIGHT HAND IN A WAY LIKE I'VE NEVER SEEN. BECAUSE 01:09:41.302 --> 01:09:44.632 THE ANOINTING OF GOD WOULD COME DOWN HIS SHOULDER AND FLOW DOWN 01:09:44.632 --> 01:09:48.533 AND SHOOT OUT HIS FINGERS. AND WHEN HE GOT HIS RIGHT HAND ON 01:09:48.533 --> 01:09:52.042 YOU, YOU FELT LIKE YOU HAD PUT YOUR FINGER IN AN ELECTRIC LIGHT 01:09:52.042 --> 01:09:57.323 SOCKET. IN FACT, I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS A BOY IN MIAMI, FLORIDA, A 01:09:57.323 --> 01:09:59.483 GROUP OF ATHEISTS CAME AND FORCED HIM TO STAND BEFORE A 01:09:59.483 --> 01:10:03.203 DISTRICT JUDGE AND SWEAR UNDER OATH THAT HE DID NOT HAVE SOME 01:10:03.203 --> 01:10:08.872 TYPE OF ELECTRICAL DEVICE UP HIS SLEEVE. AND HE HAD TO SIGN AN 01:10:08.872 --> 01:10:14.122 AFFIDAVIT. I REMEMBER THINGS LIKE THAT. AND WHEN HE GOT HIS 01:10:14.122 --> 01:10:19.943 HAND ON YOU, HE KNEW THINGS ABOUT YOU. IT WAS AMAZING. AND 01:10:19.943 --> 01:10:22.823 HE PUT OUT HIS HAND TO PRAY FOR ME AND I KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO 01:10:22.823 --> 01:10:25.523 HAPPEN. I KNEW I WAS GOING TO BE HEALED IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE I'D 01:10:25.523 --> 01:10:27.953 BEEN HEALED MANY TIMES IN MY LIFE. HE PUT OUT HIS HAND, BUT 01:10:27.953 --> 01:10:34.342 BEFORE HE TOUCHED ME, HE DREW HIS HAND BACK. AND I DIDN'T KNOW 01:10:34.342 --> 01:10:39.592 WHAT HE WAS DOING. HE SAID, "I HAD NO IDEA." AND I SAID, "DAD, 01:10:39.592 --> 01:10:43.403 WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU HAD NO IDEA?" HE SAID, "I DIDN'T KNOW 01:10:43.403 --> 01:10:48.412 THAT THE ANOINTING OF GOD FOR HEALING WAS ON YOU LIKE IT'S ON 01:10:48.412 --> 01:10:55.172 ME." I SAID, "I DIDN'T KNOW EITHER." AND HE BEGAN TO 01:10:55.172 --> 01:11:00.273 PROPHESY. HE SAID, "I SEE YOU STANDING BEFORE KINGS AND QUEENS 01:11:00.273 --> 01:11:05.073 AND PRESIDENTS, PRIME MINISTERS. I SEE YOU IN CRUSADES ALL OVER 01:11:05.073 --> 01:11:09.153 THE EARTH. I SEE YOU ON TELEVISION. HE SAID, I SEE THE 01:11:09.153 --> 01:11:13.172 SAME POWER FLOWING DOWN YOUR LEFT ARM AND INTO YOUR LEFT 01:11:13.172 --> 01:11:16.052 HAND. I SAID, WHY MY LEFT HAND? HE SAID, BECAUSE YOU'RE 01:11:16.052 --> 01:11:20.372 LEFT-HANDED. HE SAID, YOU USE YOUR LEFT HAND MORE THAN YOUR 01:11:20.372 --> 01:11:26.819 RIGHT. WELL, I WAS IN A STATE OF SHOCK. I WAS HEARING THIS, I WAS 01:11:26.819 --> 01:11:30.002 19, I WAS HEARING THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME AND IT GOT DOWN 01:11:30.002 --> 01:11:32.972 INSIDE ME. I BEGAN TO WEEP AND THEN HE PUT THAT RIGHT HAND ON 01:11:32.972 --> 01:11:35.912 ME AND SUDDENLY THE FEVER WAS GONE. MY VOICE RETURNED. I 01:11:35.912 --> 01:11:38.643 JUMPED OUT OF BED, I GOT ON MY KNEES AND I GAVE MY HEART TO THE 01:11:38.643 --> 01:11:47.132 LORD. THAT NIGHT I WAS BAPTIZED AND THE HOLY SPIRIT BEGAN 01:11:47.132 --> 01:11:51.453 PRAYING IN TONGUES AND MY LIFE WAS TRANSFORMED AND THE REST, AS 01:11:51.453 --> 01:11:57.483 THEY SAY, IS HISTORY. I JOINED HIS MINISTRY, STOOD BY HIS SIDE 01:11:57.483 --> 01:12:02.582 FOR 40 YEARS. WHERE HE WENT, I WENT. WHAT HE SAID, I SAID. WHAT 01:12:02.582 --> 01:12:08.703 HE DID, I DID. LEARNING, GROWING, MATURING, BECOMING THE 01:12:08.703 --> 01:12:13.983 PERSON THAT I AM TODAY. NOT BECAUSE I'M ANYBODY SPECIAL, BUT 01:12:13.983 --> 01:12:17.849 BECAUSE HE IS SPECIAL. I THANK GOD FOR THAT. 01:12:17.849 --> 01:12:26.643 HE TAUGHT ME SO, SO MANY THINGS. HE TAUGHT ME THAT THE SECRET 01:12:26.643 --> 01:12:31.382 WEAPON OF A CHRISTIAN'S LIFE IS THE HOLY SPIRIT. HE TAUGHT ME 01:12:31.382 --> 01:12:35.222 THAT THE APOSTLE PAUL SAID THAT WE CAN PRAY IN TONGUES AND WE 01:12:35.222 --> 01:12:39.332 CAN STOP AND PRAY IN OUR OWN LANGUAGE. AND WHEN WE DO, WHEN 01:12:39.332 --> 01:12:43.682 WE INTERPRET, LIKE PAUL SAID IN 1 CORINTHIANS, WE GET GOD'S WORD 01:12:43.682 --> 01:12:50.073 BACK TO US. HE TAUGHT ME THAT GOD IS A TALKING GOD. HE'S NOT 01:12:50.073 --> 01:12:54.512 JUST SOMEONE YOU TALK TO, HE TALKS BACK. THAT HE'LL SPEAK TO 01:12:54.512 --> 01:12:57.993 YOU. NOW HE MAY OR MAY NOT USE AN AUDIBLE VOICE, BUT YOU'LL 01:12:57.993 --> 01:13:02.493 KNOW IT. HE'LL SPEAK IN A WAY THAT YOU'LL KNOW IT. IT MAY BE 01:13:02.493 --> 01:13:04.893 THROUGH A WORD THAT SOMEONE GIVES YOU, IT MAY BE THROUGH A 01:13:04.893 --> 01:13:07.563 SCRIPTURE, IT MAY BE AN IMPRESSION, IT MAY JUST BE 01:13:07.563 --> 01:13:10.502 SOMETHING THAT FILLS YOUR HEAD AND WON'T GO AWAY, BUT YOU'LL 01:13:10.502 --> 01:13:13.623 KNOW IT'S GOD. AND WHEN YOU PRAY IN TONGUES, 01:13:13.623 --> 01:13:15.903 (SPEAKING IN TONGUES) 01:13:15.903 --> 01:13:19.712 AND YOU STOP AND YOU PRAY IN ENGLISH, YOU GET IDEAS AND YOU 01:13:19.712 --> 01:13:23.943 GET INSIGHTS AND YOU GET NEW AND INNOVATIVE WAYS OF DOING THINGS 01:13:23.943 --> 01:13:28.287 LIKE YOU'VE NEVER HAD AND KNOWN BEFORE. HE POURED THAT INTO ME. 01:13:29.762 --> 01:13:34.773 HE TAUGHT ME THAT GOD IS MY SOURCE. THE GOVERNMENT IS NOT MY 01:13:34.773 --> 01:13:39.903 SOURCE. MY BANK IS NOT MY SOURCE. MY JOB, MY MINISTRY, MY 01:13:39.903 --> 01:13:41.943 WIFE, MY CHILDREN, THEIR INSTRUMENTS, THEY'RE NOT MY 01:13:41.943 --> 01:13:45.422 SOURCE. GOD IS MY SOURCE. WHOEVER'S IN THE WHITE HOUSE OR 01:13:45.422 --> 01:13:49.353 IN THE GOVERNOR'S CHAIR, THEY'RE NOT MY SOURCE. GOD IS YOUR 01:13:49.353 --> 01:13:54.603 SOURCE. AND HE'S A BETTER SOURCE BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL LET YOU 01:13:54.603 --> 01:13:59.912 DOWN. SO DON'T PUT YOUR FAITH IN PEOPLE, PUT YOUR FAITH IN GOD 01:13:59.912 --> 01:14:03.122 AND ALLOW HIM TO CHOOSE WHAT PERSON COMES TO BLESS YOU. 01:14:03.122 --> 01:14:06.573 (APPLAUSE) 01:14:06.573 --> 01:14:10.412 HE TAUGHT ME THAT. HE TAUGHT ME, AND PASTOR DOUG, YOU WERE 01:14:10.412 --> 01:14:13.773 TALKING ABOUT THIS MORNING, HE TALKED ABOUT THE SEED THAT YOU 01:14:13.773 --> 01:14:18.872 SOW. HE SAID WHEN YOU SOW SEED, YOU HAVE A BIBLE RIGHT TO EXPECT 01:14:18.872 --> 01:14:22.563 GOD TO USE THAT SEED FOR HIS GLORY AND THEN MULTIPLY IT BACK, 01:14:22.563 --> 01:14:24.542 GOOD MEASURE, PRESSED DOWN, SHAKEN TOGETHER, AND RUNNING 01:14:24.542 --> 01:14:27.542 OVER. YOU HAVE A BIBLE RIGHT, AND YOU DON'T HAVE IT BECAUSE 01:14:27.542 --> 01:14:33.153 YOU DON'T EXPECT IT. HE SAID THERE'S CERTAIN DELIVERY SYSTEMS 01:14:33.153 --> 01:14:35.403 IN AMERICA THAT IF YOU'RE NOT THERE WHEN THEY KNOCK ON YOUR 01:14:35.403 --> 01:14:38.853 DOOR, THEY'LL TAKE IT AWAY. HE SAID YOU GOTTA BE EXPECTING, YOU 01:14:38.853 --> 01:14:43.323 GOTTA BE TRUSTING. SO WHEN YOU PLANT YOUR SEED LIKE YOU DID 01:14:43.323 --> 01:14:46.172 TODAY, YOU NEED TO SAY GOD I HAVE SOWN MY SEED AND I'M 01:14:46.172 --> 01:14:49.082 WAITING FOR YOU TO OPEN ME MY WINDOWS OF HEAVEN AND POUR ME 01:14:49.082 --> 01:14:51.033 OUT A BLESSING SO MUCH SO THERE'S NOT ENOUGH ROOM TO 01:14:51.033 --> 01:14:56.792 RECEIVE IT AND REBUKE THE DEVOURER FOR MY SAKE. AND DON'T 01:14:56.792 --> 01:14:59.360 STOP THERE, TELL THE DEVIL TO GET THE HELL OUT OF YOUR LIFE. 01:15:03.752 --> 01:15:08.042 HE POURED THAT INTO ME TO BE A SEED FAITH PERSON. MY LOVE, MY 01:15:08.042 --> 01:15:12.153 TIME, MY MONEY, MY PRAYERS, MY SMILES, EVERYTHING THAT I DO IS 01:15:12.153 --> 01:15:15.783 A SEED. TODAY, I'M PLANTING A SEED. I COULD BE HOME WITH MY 01:15:15.783 --> 01:15:18.422 FAMILY TODAY, BUT I'M HERE BECAUSE I'M SOWING A SEED INTO 01:15:18.422 --> 01:15:21.512 YOU. I'M NOT LOOKING FOR SOMETHING FROM YOU 'CAUSE GOD 01:15:21.512 --> 01:15:27.212 WILL TREAT ME BETTER THAN YOU WILL. YOU'RE NOT MY SOURCE. 01:15:27.212 --> 01:15:29.853 YOU'RE AN INSTRUMENT, BUT YOU'RE NOT THE SOURCE. GOD IS THE 01:15:29.853 --> 01:15:33.063 SOURCE. SO AS I'M MINISTERING TO YOU, I'M DOING IT AS UNTO THE 01:15:33.063 --> 01:15:40.143 LORD. AND HE WILL TAKE CARE OF ME. I KNOW IT. NOW, I DON'T KNOW 01:15:40.143 --> 01:15:45.932 HOW HE'LL DO IT, BUT HE'LL DO IT. HE POURED THAT INTO ME. HE 01:15:45.932 --> 01:15:49.622 TAUGHT ME SO MANY, MANY THINGS. HE TAUGHT ME THAT FAITH MUST BE 01:15:49.622 --> 01:15:54.243 RELEASED. AND I'VE TOLD THIS STORY ALL OVER THE WORLD AND IT 01:15:54.243 --> 01:15:59.613 BEARS REPEATING TODAY. WHEN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD, I HAD 22 WARTS 01:15:59.613 --> 01:16:03.993 ON MY LEFT HAND. AND AS I TOLD YOU, I'M LEFT-HANDED. AND AS I 01:16:03.993 --> 01:16:06.813 GREW UP, I PLAYED BASEBALL, BASKETBALL, FOOTBALL. I PLAYED 01:16:06.813 --> 01:16:10.533 EVERY SPORT THAT A BOY COULD PLAY. AND I WOULD COME HOME FROM 01:16:10.533 --> 01:16:13.412 PRACTICE AT NIGHT AND MY HAND WOULD BE BLEEDING BECAUSE WITH 01:16:13.412 --> 01:16:15.632 THROWING THE BALL OR CATCHING THE BALL, I WOULD RIP THE TOP OF 01:16:15.632 --> 01:16:20.313 THE WARTS OFF. AND MY MOTHER WOULD TAKE ME AND MAKE A BASIN 01:16:20.313 --> 01:16:23.552 OF WARM, SOAPY WATER, PUT MY HAND IN IT TO TRY TO GET THE 01:16:23.552 --> 01:16:25.922 BLEEDING TO STOP AND TO SETTLE DOWN. AND YOU KNOW, THAT DIDN'T 01:16:25.922 --> 01:16:29.823 DO A WHOLE LOT OF GOOD. AND MY DAD CAME HOME AND SHE SAID, 01:16:29.823 --> 01:16:32.823 "ORAL, WE'RE GONNA TAKE RICHARD TO THE DOCTOR AND HAVE THOSE 01:16:32.823 --> 01:16:35.762 WARTS BURNED OFF." 'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT THEY DID IN THOSE DAYS. 01:16:35.762 --> 01:16:38.792 THEY DON'T DO THAT TODAY, BUT IN THOSE DAYS, THEY BURNED THEM 01:16:38.792 --> 01:16:41.342 OFF. AND THAT SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME. 01:16:44.012 --> 01:16:49.983 EXCUSE MY FRENCH. I TOLD YOU I'M JUST REGULAR. AND HE CAME IN AND 01:16:49.983 --> 01:16:52.802 SAID, "WELL, THAT'S FINE, BUT LET'S ALSO PRAY." I SAID, "YES, 01:16:52.802 --> 01:16:57.002 YES, LET'S PRAY, LET'S PRAY." SO HE TOOK ME IN THE BEDROOM, SHUT 01:16:57.002 --> 01:17:00.243 THE DOOR, SAT ME DOWN ON THE BED AND SAID, "NOW I'M GONNA PRAY 01:17:00.243 --> 01:17:04.353 FOR YOU, AND WHEN I DO, I WANT YOU TO RELEASE YOUR FAITH." I 01:17:04.353 --> 01:17:07.893 SAID, "DADDY, HOW DO YOU RELEASE YOUR FAITH?" HE SAID, "YOU DO IT 01:17:07.893 --> 01:17:11.012 THROUGH A POINT OF CONTACT." I SAID, "WELL, WHAT'S A POINT OF 01:17:11.012 --> 01:17:14.012 CONTACT?" "A POINT OF CONTACT, RICHARD, IS SOMETHING THAT YOU 01:17:14.012 --> 01:17:19.533 DO, AND WHEN YOU DO IT, YOU RELEASE YOUR FAITH." AND HE SAW 01:17:19.533 --> 01:17:24.002 THAT I HAD NO IDEA WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT. SO HE POINTED TO 01:17:24.002 --> 01:17:27.212 THE WALL AND SAID, "DO YOU SEE THAT LIGHT SWITCH?" "YES." 01:17:27.212 --> 01:17:31.052 "RICHARD, THAT LIGHT SWITCH IS A POINT OF CONTACT. "IT HAS NO 01:17:31.052 --> 01:17:35.912 POWER, BUT IT'S HOOKED UP TO THE POWER COMPANY. "SO THAT WHEN YOU 01:17:35.912 --> 01:17:39.752 FLIP THE SWITCH, YOU TOUCH THE POWER COMPANY AND THE LIGHTS 01:17:39.752 --> 01:17:43.863 COME ON." HE SAID, "NOW THE FAITH IN YOUR HEART "IS JUST 01:17:43.863 --> 01:17:49.983 LIKE THAT SWITCH. "IT'S HOOKED UP TO GOD. "AND WHEN YOU FLIP 01:17:49.983 --> 01:17:53.432 THAT SWITCH AND RELEASE IT TO GOD, "THAT'S WHEN THE MIRACLES 01:17:53.432 --> 01:17:58.953 BEGIN TO HAPPEN." OKAY, I UNDERSTOOD. HE SAID, "NOW I'M 01:17:58.953 --> 01:18:03.182 GONNA PRAY, AND WHEN YOU HEAR ME SAY, "'IN JESUS' NAME,' YOU LET 01:18:03.182 --> 01:18:06.993 YOUR FAITH GO." I SAID, "OKAY." I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, BUT I 01:18:06.993 --> 01:18:11.132 SAID, "OKAY." AND HE BEGAN TO PRAY, AND HE CAME TO A POINT IN 01:18:11.132 --> 01:18:14.103 HIS PRAYER WHEN HE SAID, "IN JESUS' NAME," AND I DIDN'T KNOW 01:18:14.103 --> 01:18:16.233 WHAT TO DO. NOW, I'M JUST 10 YEARS OLD. I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO 01:18:16.233 --> 01:18:19.467 DO, SO I JUST SAID THIS, "FAITH, GET UP THERE TO GOD.” 01:18:22.443 --> 01:18:26.703 AND THE OLDER I GET, THE BETTER IT SOUNDS. FAITH IN THE NAME OF 01:18:26.703 --> 01:18:32.162 JESUS, I RELEASE MY FAITH AND I EXPECT A MIRACLE. I LOOKED AT MY 01:18:32.162 --> 01:18:39.243 HAND AND EVERY WART WAS STILL THERE. AND HE LOOKED AT ME AND 01:18:39.243 --> 01:18:41.762 HE SAID SOMETHING THAT I'VE NEVER FORGOTTEN. HE SAID, "NOW 01:18:41.762 --> 01:18:44.733 RICHARD, WE PRAYED AND WE BELIEVED, "NOW LET'S EXPECT A 01:18:44.733 --> 01:18:48.813 MIRACLE." HE TAUGHT ME THAT SOME MIRACLES HAPPEN INSTANTANEOUSLY, 01:18:48.813 --> 01:18:52.592 SOME COME OVER A PERIOD OF TIME. HE TOLD ME THAT WE'RE NOT IN 01:18:52.592 --> 01:18:56.283 CHARGE OF THE AGENDA OR THE SCHEDULE. THE NEXT MORNING I 01:18:56.283 --> 01:18:59.493 AWAKENED, THEY WERE STILL THERE. SECOND, THIRD, FOURTH MORNING, 01:18:59.493 --> 01:19:02.493 THEY WERE STILL THERE. FOURTH MORNING, FIFTH MORNING, SIXTH 01:19:02.493 --> 01:19:05.313 MORNING, THEY WERE STILL THERE. SEVENTH MORNING, EIGHTH MORNING, 01:19:05.313 --> 01:19:10.082 NINTH MORNING, THEY WERE STILL THERE. BUT ON THE TENTH MORNING, 01:19:10.082 --> 01:19:22.743 WHEN I WOKE UP, EVERY WART HAD DISAPPEARED. THAT WAS 67 YEARS 01:19:22.743 --> 01:19:27.002 AGO. I'VE NEVER HAD ANOTHER WORD ON THAT HAND. BUT MORE THAN 01:19:27.002 --> 01:19:33.363 THAT, I LEARNED HOW TO GET A POINT OF CONTACT TO RELEASE MY 01:19:33.363 --> 01:19:38.462 FAITH. AND IN A MINUTE, WHEN I BEGIN PRAYING FOR YOU, WHEN I 01:19:38.462 --> 01:19:43.563 BEGIN PRAYING FOR HEALING AS I ALWAYS DO, I WANT YOU TO LET 01:19:43.563 --> 01:19:48.597 YOUR FAITH GO AND BELIEVE GOD. BECAUSE THE SAME GOD WHO HEALED 01:19:48.597 --> 01:19:53.132 ME AND MY HANDS 67 YEARS AGO IS QUITE CAPABLE OF TAKING CARE OF 01:19:53.132 --> 01:20:00.153 YOU TODAY. HE TAUGHT ME TO EXPECT MIRACLES. HE SAID 01:20:00.153 --> 01:20:02.703 MIRACLES ARE EITHER COMING TOWARDS YOU OR THEY'RE GOING 01:20:02.703 --> 01:20:06.243 PAST YOU EVERY DAY. AND YOU GOT TO REACH OUT AND SAY THAT'S 01:20:06.243 --> 01:20:11.073 MINE. HE USED TO SAY RICHARD THE VIOLENT TAKE IT BY FORCE. NOW 01:20:11.073 --> 01:20:13.622 THAT'S NOT IN A MILITARISTIC WAY, NO, THAT'S TAKING IT BY 01:20:13.622 --> 01:20:19.472 FAITH, THAT'S MINE. YOU CAN'T HAVE THAT. AND HE SAID RICHARD, 01:20:19.472 --> 01:20:25.082 NO ONE CAN STEAL YOUR ANOINTING UNLESS YOU GIVE IT TO THEM. NO 01:20:25.082 --> 01:20:30.212 ONE CAN TAKE WHAT GOD HAS PUT INSIDE YOU UNLESS YOU GIVE IT TO 01:20:30.212 --> 01:20:37.622 THEM. ESAU LOST HIS BIRTHRIGHT BECAUSE HE GAVE IT TO JACOB. HE 01:20:37.622 --> 01:20:41.103 DIDN'T HAVE TO GIVE IT, BUT HE DID. IT MEANT NOTHING TO HIM, SO 01:20:41.103 --> 01:20:45.363 HE GAVE IT TO HIS BROTHER. IT COST HIM A GREAT DEAL BECAUSE HE 01:20:45.363 --> 01:20:48.693 DIDN'T VALUE WHAT GOD PUT IN HIM. AND GOD'S PUT SOMETHING IN 01:20:48.693 --> 01:20:59.069 YOU. DON'T GIVE IT AWAY. IT'S YOURS. OH, ABOUT MAYBE SIX 01:20:59.069 --> 01:21:06.685 MONTHS OR SO BEFORE HE PASSED, HE WANTED TO, I'D GONE OUT FOR A 01:21:06.685 --> 01:21:10.168 FEW DAYS TO BE WITH HIM, AND HE WANTED, HE COULDN'T PLAY GOLF 01:21:10.168 --> 01:21:12.840 ANYMORE, BUT HE WANTED TO GO OUT ON THE GOLF COURSE WITH ME. HE 01:21:12.840 --> 01:21:16.229 WANTED ME TO PLAY, HE WANTED TO DRIVE THE CART, WHICH WAS DANGER 01:21:16.229 --> 01:21:22.260 IN ITSELF. BECAUSE MY MOTHER HAD EARLIER REBUKED AND WITHDRAWN 01:21:22.260 --> 01:21:26.550 HIS ABILITY TO DRIVE. BECAUSE MY FATHER NEVER SAW A TREE HE 01:21:26.550 --> 01:21:32.399 COULDN'T HIT. HOW MANY TIMES, I REMEMBER ONCE, HE SAID, "CAN YOU 01:21:32.399 --> 01:21:35.010 TAKE ME TO THE AIRPORT?" I SAID, "SURE." SO I WENT UP TO HIS 01:21:35.010 --> 01:21:37.378 HOUSE AND GOT HIS LUGGAGE AND OPENED THE TRUNK, AND HIS BUMPER 01:21:37.378 --> 01:21:42.029 IS IN THE BACK TRUNK OF THE CAR. I SAID, "WHAT HAPPENED?" HE 01:21:42.029 --> 01:21:44.488 SAID, "WELL, I HAD A LITTLE UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT "WITH A 01:21:44.488 --> 01:21:46.979 WOMAN OUT HERE." AND I SAID, "WELL, WHAT HAPPENED?" HE SAID, 01:21:46.979 --> 01:21:49.529 "WELL, ALL I'LL TELL YOU IS THAT THE BUMPER IS IN THE 01:21:49.529 --> 01:21:53.639 TRUNK." I SAID, "WHAT ABOUT HER?" SHE SAID, "WELL," HE SAID, 01:21:53.639 --> 01:21:55.746 WELL, SHE SAID SHE WOULDN'T SUE ME IF I'D LAY HANDS ON HER 01:21:55.746 --> 01:21:56.219 AND PRAY.” 01:21:58.889 --> 01:22:00.958 HE WAS DANGEROUS, HE WAS DANGEROUS WHEN IT CAME TO 01:22:00.958 --> 01:22:05.099 DRIVING. HE HIT THE SIDE OF THE, I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES 01:22:05.099 --> 01:22:07.885 HE HIT THE SIDE OF THE GARAGE PULLING IN. ANYWAY, I WAS 01:22:07.885 --> 01:22:10.679 TELLING A STORY, I FORGOT WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT. IT WAS 01:22:10.679 --> 01:22:15.719 IMMORTAL, I'M SURE. OH, THE GOLF CART, THANK YOU. I FORGOT WHAT I 01:22:15.719 --> 01:22:19.800 WAS TALKING ABOUT. SO WE GO OUT ON THE GOLF COURSE. HE LIVED IN 01:22:19.800 --> 01:22:22.948 A CONDOMINIUM ON THE SECOND TEE OF A GOLF COURSE OUT THERE THAT 01:22:22.948 --> 01:22:26.488 HE HAD BEEN A MEMBER OF AFTER HE RETIRED FROM THE MINISTRY. AND 01:22:26.488 --> 01:22:28.710 HE WANTED TO GO OUT, HE WANTED ME TO PLAY, BUT HE WANTED TO 01:22:28.710 --> 01:22:30.929 DRIVE THE CART. HE WASN'T GONNA PLAY. HE MIGHT PUTT ONCE IN A 01:22:30.929 --> 01:22:35.010 WHILE, BUT HE WASN'T GONNA PLAY. SO WE'RE OUT THERE, WE'RE 01:22:35.010 --> 01:22:37.256 GETTING READY TO TEE OFF ON THE FIRST HOLE AND THERE'S A COUPLE 01:22:37.256 --> 01:22:41.279 OF GROUPS IN FRONT OF US THAT WERE WAITING. AND HE PUT HIS 01:22:41.279 --> 01:22:48.059 HAND ON MY LEG AND HE SAID, "SON." NOW, WHEN ORAL ROBERTS 01:22:48.059 --> 01:22:55.139 SAID THE WORD "SON," WHICH HE'D SAID MANY TIMES, I KNEW HE WAS 01:22:55.139 --> 01:23:00.479 ABOUT TO GIVE ME A WORD FROM GOD. I GOT REAL QUIET. I FORGOT 01:23:00.479 --> 01:23:04.529 ABOUT THE GOLF COURSE FOR A MINUTE. HE SAID, "SON, I'M GOING 01:23:04.529 --> 01:23:10.109 TO BE GONE SOON. AND YOUR NEXT CRUSADE IS GOING TO BE IN 01:23:10.109 --> 01:23:15.510 KENYA." I SAID, "THAT'S RIGHT." IN JANUARY. HE SAID, "YOU'RE 01:23:15.510 --> 01:23:18.868 GOING TO HAVE TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE AS I HAD WHEN I WAS IN 01:23:18.868 --> 01:23:23.939 KENYA." AND I HAD REMEMBERED THAT IN 1968, HE HAD A CRUSADE 01:23:23.939 --> 01:23:27.809 AND THE LAST DAY HE HAD A HUNDRED THOUSAND PEOPLE. HE 01:23:27.809 --> 01:23:30.658 SAID, "YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TWICE AS MANY MIRACLES "AND YOU'RE 01:23:30.658 --> 01:23:33.719 GONNA HAVE TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE." AND HE SAID, "YOU'RE 01:23:33.719 --> 01:23:36.418 GONNA HAVE THAT DOUBLE PORTION "ANOINTING THAT YOU PRAYED FOR 01:23:36.418 --> 01:23:42.719 ALL OF YOUR LIFE." AND I FELT THE TEARS BEGIN TO RUN DOWN MY 01:23:42.719 --> 01:23:52.618 FACE. WASN'T THINKING ABOUT GOLF ANYMORE. A MONTH LATER, HE WAS 01:23:52.618 --> 01:23:59.158 GONE. AND I WAS IN THE ROOM, AND I WATCHED THE NEEDLES ON THE 01:23:59.158 --> 01:24:04.139 MACHINES GO DOWN AND DOWN AND DOWN. AND I KNEW IT WAS A MATTER 01:24:04.139 --> 01:24:10.859 OF SECONDS BEFORE HE'D BE GONE. AND I WATCHED ALL THE NEEDLES GO 01:24:10.859 --> 01:24:18.328 FLAT. AND THE EARTHLY LIFE WENT OUT OF HIM. HIS EYES WERE OPEN, 01:24:18.328 --> 01:24:24.988 LOOKING AT ME. IT WAS A MOMENT I'LL NEVER FORGET. ABOUT THAT 01:24:24.988 --> 01:24:28.349 TIME, THERE WAS A COMMOTION IN THE ROOM. AND I THOUGHT IT WAS 01:24:28.349 --> 01:24:31.738 THE DOCTORS AND NURSES BECAUSE THEY HAD SEEN ON THEIR MACHINES 01:24:31.738 --> 01:24:35.010 THAT THEY NEEDED TO COME IN BECAUSE OF THE NEEDLES GOING 01:24:35.010 --> 01:24:39.029 DOWN. BUT THERE WAS NO DOCTOR, THERE WAS NO NURSE. AND I LOOKED 01:24:39.029 --> 01:24:44.939 UP. I BLINKED MY EYES 'CAUSE I THOUGHT I WAS SEEING THINGS. AND 01:24:44.939 --> 01:24:50.219 I SAW TWO ANGELS. THEY CAME RIGHT THROUGH THE CEILING. ONE 01:24:50.219 --> 01:24:54.719 WAS SO TALL I COULDN'T SEE HIS HEAD. AND I WATCHED THEM REACH 01:24:54.719 --> 01:25:00.777 IN TO HIS BODY AND PICK UP HIS SPIRIT AND BEGIN TO CARRY IT UP. 01:25:00.777 --> 01:25:04.378 I STARTED YELLING, I STARTED WEEPING, I STARTED SCREAMING. 01:25:09.628 --> 01:25:13.559 AND AS THEY WENT THROUGH THE CEILING WITH IT, SUDDENLY I SAW 01:25:13.559 --> 01:25:18.238 WHAT LOOKED LIKE A MANTLE AND IT STARTED FLOATING BACK DOWN IN 01:25:18.238 --> 01:25:22.859 THE ROOM. AND I JUMPED UP OUT OF MY CHAIR AND I GRABBED IT AND 01:25:22.859 --> 01:25:31.797 SAID, "THAT'S MINE. AND NO ONE CAN TAKE IT AWAY FROM ME." A 01:25:31.797 --> 01:25:36.809 MONTH LATER I WAS IN KENYA ON THE LAST NIGHT. ACCORDING TO THE 01:25:36.809 --> 01:25:42.658 POLICE ESTIMATE, 200,000 PEOPLE. NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT IN 01:25:42.658 --> 01:25:48.448 MY LIFE. OUT OF ONE WORD OF KNOWLEDGE, OUT OF ONE WORD OF 01:25:48.448 --> 01:25:51.599 KNOWLEDGE I GAVE, 4,000 PEOPLE CAME FORWARD TO GIVE TESTIMONY 01:25:51.599 --> 01:25:58.349 OF HEALING. AND WHAT A HEALING CRUSADE THAT WAS. MIRACLES AFTER 01:25:58.349 --> 01:26:03.118 MIRACLES AFTER MIRACLES. THANK GOD FOR THE DOUBLE PORTION. I 01:26:04.679 --> 01:26:10.109 HONOR MY HERITAGE TODAY. YOU SHOULD NOT EVER FORGET WHERE YOU 01:26:10.109 --> 01:26:15.831 CAME FROM. BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING UNTIL 01:26:15.831 --> 01:26:22.469 YOU REMEMBER WHERE YOU'VE BEEN. I KNOW WHERE I'VE BEEN. I KNOW 01:26:22.469 --> 01:26:27.444 WHERE I'M GOING. AND I'M NOT LEAVING ANYTHING ON THE TABLE. 01:26:29.458 --> 01:26:34.649 I'M GOING TO SHARE AND CONTINUE TO SHARE WHAT GOD HAS PUT IN ME. 01:26:36.569 --> 01:26:40.260 AND I'M SHARING IT WITH YOU TODAY. I'M SHOWING YOU A BIT OF 01:26:40.260 --> 01:26:46.260 MY HEART AND A BIT OF MY LIFE. AND I'M GRATEFUL. I STILL GET 01:26:46.260 --> 01:26:50.969 ALL THE ORAL ROBERTS JOKES. THEY SAID THAT ORAL ROBERTS AND BILLY 01:26:50.969 --> 01:26:54.510 GRAHAM DIED AND WENT TO HEAVEN. AND WHEN THEY GOT TO THE GATE, 01:26:54.510 --> 01:26:56.998 ST. PETER SAID, "I'M SORRY, BOYS, YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO GO 01:26:56.998 --> 01:27:02.219 DOWN BELOW "FOR A WHILE, WE'RE FULL UP." AND SO HE SENT THEM 01:27:02.219 --> 01:27:07.019 DOWN TO THE LOWER PARTS. AND AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE DEVIL 01:27:07.019 --> 01:27:09.300 TELEPHONED PETER AND SAID, "YOU GOTTA GET ORAL AND BILLY OUTTA 01:27:09.300 --> 01:27:14.189 HERE." AND PETER SAID, "WHY?" HE SAID, "BECAUSE BILLY GRAHAM'S 01:27:14.189 --> 01:27:17.279 GETTING EVERYBODY SAVED, "AND ORAL ROBERTS IS RAISING MONEY TO 01:27:17.279 --> 01:27:18.179 PUT IN AIR CONDITIONING.” 01:27:27.389 --> 01:27:30.809 WE WERE PLAYING GOLF IN A TOURNAMENT WITH BOB HOPE. AND 01:27:30.809 --> 01:27:33.238 BOB HOPE SAID, "I HATE PLAYING WITH ORAL ROBERTS BECAUSE WHEN 01:27:33.238 --> 01:27:34.738 I PUTT, THE HOLE HEALS UP.” 01:27:40.498 --> 01:27:42.719 THEY SAID THAT ORAL ROBERTS DIED AND WENT TO HEAVEN. THEY GOT TO 01:27:42.719 --> 01:27:45.059 THE GATE, ST. PETER SAID, "ARE YOU ORAL ROBERTS?" "YES." "ARE 01:27:45.059 --> 01:27:48.448 YOU THE ORAL ROBERTS?" "YES." "WELL, COME WITH ME. JESUS, THE 01:27:48.448 --> 01:27:52.109 SON, WANTS TO SEE YOU." HE TOOK HIM BEFORE JESUS AND JESUS SAID, 01:27:52.109 --> 01:27:55.529 "ARE YOU ORAL ROBERTS?" "YES." "THE ORAL ROBERTS?" "YES." 01:27:55.529 --> 01:27:58.769 "WELL, COME WITH ME. MY FATHER WANTS TO SEE YOU." SO HE STOOD 01:27:58.769 --> 01:28:00.988 BEFORE GOD ALMIGHTY AND GOD SAID, "ARE YOU ORAL ROBERTS?" 01:28:00.988 --> 01:28:04.498 "YES." "THE ORAL ROBERTS?" "YES." "ORAL, I GOT THIS PAIN IN 01:28:04.498 --> 01:28:15.355 MY LEFT SHOULDER. I'VE HURT 'EM ALL." AND I THANK GOD FOR IT. I 01:28:15.355 --> 01:28:19.139 THANK GOD FOR THE JOY. I THANK GOD FOR THE TEARS. I THANK GOD 01:28:19.139 --> 01:28:26.878 FOR IT ALL, 'CAUSE ALL OF IT HAS MADE ME WHO I AM. AND I PRAISE 01:28:26.878 --> 01:28:35.819 GOD FOR IT. I LEARNED HOW TO LIVE. AND WHEN I MET LINDSAY AND 01:28:35.819 --> 01:28:40.078 FELL IN LOVE, I'D BEEN THROUGH A REALLY HARD TIME IN MY LIFE. AND 01:28:40.078 --> 01:28:43.078 I'D SAID, "I'M THROUGH WITH WOMEN "FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE." 01:28:45.029 --> 01:28:49.529 AND THEN I MET LINDSAY. AND WE HAD DATED FOR A WHILE. AND I 01:28:49.529 --> 01:28:53.128 BEGAN FALLING IN LOVE WITH HER. AND I WANTED TO TAKE HER OUT TO 01:28:53.128 --> 01:28:57.418 MEET MY PARENTS. THEY WERE OUT IN CALIFORNIA AT THE TIME. AND 01:28:57.418 --> 01:29:01.288 SO WE FLEW OUT AND WE GOT THERE, IT WAS LATE, WE GOT TO THE HOUSE 01:29:01.288 --> 01:29:05.189 WHERE THEY WERE STAYING AND MY MOTHER SAID, "COME ON IN." AND I 01:29:05.189 --> 01:29:07.800 INTRODUCED HER TO LINDSAY AND SHE SAID, "GO ON BACK IN THE 01:29:07.800 --> 01:29:10.738 BEDROOM, ORAL'S SITTING UP IN BED READING." MY DAD WAS A 01:29:10.738 --> 01:29:14.189 VORACIOUS READER. AT ANY GIVEN TIME HE'D READ ALMOST ALL THE 01:29:14.189 --> 01:29:18.719 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERS, BOTH SECULAR AND SPIRITUAL. AND HE 01:29:18.719 --> 01:29:20.969 WAS SITTING UP IN BED WITH HIS READING GLASSES IN HIS PAJAMAS 01:29:20.969 --> 01:29:22.618 AND WE WENT BACK IN THERE AND LINDSAY SAID, "I'M NOT GOING IN 01:29:22.618 --> 01:29:25.260 THERE WITH ORAL ROBERTS. I'M NOT GOING IN ORAL ROBERTS' BEDROOM." 01:29:25.260 --> 01:29:29.069 I SAID, "COME ON, WE'LL GO IN." I SAID, "HE'S JUST A MAN." AND 01:29:29.069 --> 01:29:32.069 SO WE WALKED IN THERE. HE LOOKED UP AND SAID, "SO, THIS IS 01:29:32.069 --> 01:29:42.599 RICHARD'S BRIDE." SHE TURNED AND RAN OUT OF THE ROOM. I PULLED 01:29:42.599 --> 01:29:47.038 HER BACK IN AND WE HAD A NICE CONVERSATION. THE NEXT DAY WE 01:29:47.038 --> 01:29:52.229 REALLY GOT TO KNOW HER. AND THEN A FEW WEEKS LATER, I WAS IN A 01:29:52.229 --> 01:29:55.559 SERVICE WITH BROTHER HAGEN, KENNETH HAGEN, AND HE PROPHESIED 01:29:55.559 --> 01:30:00.074 THAT WE WOULD MARRY, AND HE DID IT IN FRONT OF 4,000 PEOPLE. AND 01:30:01.498 --> 01:30:05.760 I KNEW ALL HELL WOULD BREAK LOOSE IF I REMARRIED, AND IT 01:30:05.760 --> 01:30:11.279 DID, BUT I KNEW I'D BE ALL RIGHT BECAUSE I'D HAD A WORD FROM TWO 01:30:11.279 --> 01:30:17.069 PROPHETS OF GOD. AND THAT MARRIAGE IS NOW 46 YEARS STRONG. 01:30:22.439 --> 01:30:26.969 AND WE HAVE THREE WONDERFUL DAUGHTERS. YOU KNOW, LINDSAY HAD 01:30:26.969 --> 01:30:29.788 ENDOMETRIOSIS. THERE WAS NO WAY SHE COULD EVER HAVE CHILDREN. 01:30:29.788 --> 01:30:35.309 AND WE GOT THREE BECAUSE GOD HEALED HER. SHE HAD AN OVARIAN 01:30:36.809 --> 01:30:40.050 CYST THAT WAS ALMOST AS BIG AS AN ORANGE. AND THEY WERE TAKING 01:30:40.050 --> 01:30:43.439 HER IN FOR A HYSTERECTOMY. BUT ON THE WAY TO THE OPERATION 01:30:43.439 --> 01:30:47.399 ROOM, GOD HEALED HER. AND SHE GAVE BIRTH TO JORDAN. AND THEN 01:30:47.399 --> 01:30:50.998 SHE GAVE BIRTH TO OLIVIA. AND THEN SHE GAVE BIRTH TO CHLOE, 01:30:50.998 --> 01:30:52.795 WHO WE CALL ORAL ROBERTS IN A DRESS. 01:30:55.229 --> 01:30:59.354 LITTLE FIREBALL. THANK GOD, THANK GOD FOR MY LIFE. LINDSAY 01:30:59.354 --> 01:31:02.804 MAY BE WATCHING ME LIVE ONLINE, I DON'T KNOW. BUT I THANK GOD 01:31:02.804 --> 01:31:05.984 FOR HER, WHAT SHE HAS MEANT TO MY LIFE. SHE GAVE ME A GOSPEL OF 01:31:05.984 --> 01:31:13.814 YOU CAN. I'D HAD A GOSPEL OF YOU CAN'T. BUT SHE GAVE ME A GOSPEL 01:31:13.814 --> 01:31:17.923 OF YOU CAN AND I'LL HELP YOU. AND IT'S MADE THE DIFFERENCE IN 01:31:17.923 --> 01:31:24.253 MY LIFE. THANK GOD FOR A STRONG, HEALTHY WIFE. AND I KNOW SHE'S 01:31:24.253 --> 01:31:25.213 PRAYING FOR ME RIGHT NOW. 01:31:29.413 --> 01:31:32.833 I'VE BEEN THROUGH SOME THINGS IN MY LIFE, BUT DAVID SAID, "YEA, 01:31:32.833 --> 01:31:37.514 THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY." HE DIDN'T PARK IN THE 01:31:37.514 --> 01:31:41.173 MIDDLE OF IT. HE DIDN'T QUIT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. HE DIDN'T 01:31:41.173 --> 01:31:46.423 BUILD A MONUMENT. HE JUST WENT ON THROUGH. AND THE BIBLE CALLED 01:31:46.423 --> 01:31:49.543 HIM A MAN AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART. EVEN THOUGH HE MADE MISTAKES, 01:31:49.543 --> 01:31:55.243 GREAT MISTAKES, HE UNDERSTOOD FORGIVENESS. AND HE UNDERSTOOD 01:31:55.243 --> 01:32:00.224 HOW TO REPENT. AND THAT'S THE ONE THING THAT YOU CAN DO. EVER 01:32:00.224 --> 01:32:03.583 MADE A MISTAKE, PUT YOUR HAND UP. ANYBODY EVER MADE MORE THAN 01:32:03.583 --> 01:32:06.644 ONE MISTAKE, PUT UP BOTH HANDS. MATTHEW, I WON'T ASK YOU TO 01:32:06.644 --> 01:32:13.064 RAISE YOUR FEET. BUT YOU KNOW, THE ONE THING YOU CAN DO IS YOU 01:32:13.064 --> 01:32:18.944 CAN REPENT. YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW, YOU DIDN'T INTEND TO DO 01:32:18.944 --> 01:32:21.734 THAT. YOU DIDN'T INTEND TO MAKE A MISTAKE. YOU DIDN'T INTEND TO 01:32:21.734 --> 01:32:24.224 FALL. IT'S LIKE THE YOUNG MAN WHO WENT TO THE LAKE TO FISH, 01:32:24.224 --> 01:32:27.563 AND INSTEAD OF FISHING, HE FELL IN THE LAKE. AND A MAN CAME BY 01:32:27.563 --> 01:32:29.594 AND SAID, "SON, HOW'D YOU COME TO FALL IN?" HE SAID, "I DIDN'T 01:32:29.594 --> 01:32:35.083 COME TO FALL IN. "I CAME TO FISH, BUT I JUST FELL IN ALONG 01:32:35.083 --> 01:32:37.963 THE WAY." AND THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED TO MANY OF US. WE FELL 01:32:37.963 --> 01:32:41.804 IN, AND WE GOT CAUGHT UP, AND WE MADE MISTAKES. BUT THE BIBLE 01:32:41.804 --> 01:32:45.344 SAYS IF YOU CONFESS THAT SIN UNTO GOD, HE IS FAITHFUL AND 01:32:45.344 --> 01:32:49.423 JUST TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SIN AND TO CLEANSE YOU FROM ALL 01:32:49.423 --> 01:32:52.663 UNRIGHTEOUSNESS. AND THAT'S WHY I BELIEVE GOD CALLED HIM A MAN 01:32:52.663 --> 01:32:57.823 AFTER HIS OWN HEART, BECAUSE DAVID MADE SOME HUMONGOUS, 01:32:57.823 --> 01:33:02.894 HORRENDOUS MISTAKES. WE ALL, WE READ ABOUT IT IN THE BIBLE. AND 01:33:02.894 --> 01:33:06.644 YET GOD CALLED HIM A MAN AFTER HIS OWN HEART. PRAISE GOD. AND 01:33:06.644 --> 01:33:11.743 JESUS CAME THROUGH THE LINE OF DAVID. PRAISE GOD. THANK GOD FOR 01:33:11.743 --> 01:33:15.524 FORGIVENESS. UNFORGIVENESS IS LIKE DRINKING POISON AND 01:33:15.524 --> 01:33:20.923 EXPECTING THE OTHER PERSON TO DIE. UNFORGIVENESS WON'T DO 01:33:20.923 --> 01:33:24.554 ANYTHING TO THEM, BUT IT'LL KILL YOU. AND IF YOU'RE IN 01:33:24.554 --> 01:33:28.332 UNFORGIVENESS TODAY, YOU NEED TO GET OVER YOURSELF. YOU NEED TO 01:33:28.332 --> 01:33:34.543 LET IT GO. 'CAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH IT. FORGIVENESS IS THE ROOT OF 01:33:34.543 --> 01:33:38.144 MUCH SICKNESS AND DISEASE. UNFORGIVENESS, I SHOULD SAY. 01:33:38.144 --> 01:33:41.323 UNFORGIVENESS IS THE ROOT OF MANY SICKNESSES AND DISEASE. 01:33:42.644 --> 01:33:47.713 BECAUSE IT TURNS YOU INSIDE YOURSELF. LET IT GO. I REMEMBER 01:33:47.713 --> 01:33:51.493 ONCE, LINDSEY SAID, "I WANT YOU TO GET A PIECE OF PAPER "AND 01:33:51.493 --> 01:33:53.684 WRITE DOWN ALL THESE PEOPLE WHO'VE OFFENDED YOU "AND DONE 01:33:53.684 --> 01:33:56.413 ALL THE HORRIBLE THINGS "THEY'VE DONE AGAINST YOU ALL YOUR LIFE." 01:33:56.413 --> 01:33:59.474 SO I GOT A PENCIL, I HAD TO SHARPEN IT AGAIN 'CAUSE I HAD TO 01:33:59.474 --> 01:34:03.283 WRITE SO MANY NAMES DOWN. AND WHEN I GOT FINISHED, SHE SAID, 01:34:03.283 --> 01:34:06.793 "NOW, ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PAPER, WRITE WHAT THEY DID." 01:34:06.793 --> 01:34:10.123 WELL, THAT TOOK EVEN LONGER, SO I WROTE ALL THIS OUT AND WROTE 01:34:10.123 --> 01:34:12.043 IT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE PAPER. THEN SHE SAID, "NOW TAKE 01:34:12.043 --> 01:34:15.163 THE PAPER AND TEAR IT IN HALF THIS WAY." I SAID, "OKAY." NOW, 01:34:17.984 --> 01:34:28.814 THROW AWAY WHAT THEY DID AND FORGIVE THE PERSON. IT CHANGED 01:34:28.814 --> 01:34:32.623 MY LIFE. SO IF YOU GOT UNFORGIVENESS IN YOUR HEART 01:34:32.623 --> 01:34:35.953 TODAY, I'M TELLING YOU, LET IT GO. IT'S NOT WORTH IT 'CAUSE 01:34:35.953 --> 01:34:37.963 JESUS SAID, "IF YOU DON'T FORGIVE, NEITHER AM I GONNA 01:34:37.963 --> 01:34:41.384 FORGIVE YOU." WE ALL WANT FORGIVENESS, WE BETTER GIVE IT. 01:34:42.314 --> 01:34:45.043 AND IF YOU'RE HOLDING SOMETHING AGAINST SOMEBODY TODAY, LET IT 01:34:45.043 --> 01:34:52.753 GO. 'CAUSE IT WON'T HURT THEM, BUT IT'LL KILL YOU. PRAISE GOD. 01:34:53.953 --> 01:34:54.913 ARE YOU GETTING ANYTHING TODAY? 01:34:56.997 --> 01:35:02.264 IS THIS WORTH YOUR TIME? WELL, I'M GIVING YOU A BIT OF MYSELF 01:35:02.264 --> 01:35:06.373 TODAY. AND I'M TRYING TO DO THAT MORE AND MORE WHEREVER I GO. I'M 01:35:06.373 --> 01:35:10.304 NOT ABLE TO TRAVEL NOW AS MUCH AS I WAS BEFORE BECAUSE TWO 01:35:10.304 --> 01:35:14.894 YEARS AGO I BEGAN DOING A LIVE, FIVE DAY A WEEK, DAILY HEALING 01:35:14.894 --> 01:35:19.305 TELEVISION PROGRAM. AND SO I'VE GOT TO BE IN TULSA A LOT MORE. 01:35:19.305 --> 01:35:21.854 WE'RE GOING, AS SOON AS THE SERVICE IS OVER, WE'RE GOING 01:35:21.854 --> 01:35:26.173 HOME IMMEDIATELY. 'CAUSE I'VE GOT LIVE TELEVISION. I'M SEEING 01:35:26.173 --> 01:35:29.654 SO MANY HEALING MIRACLES. JUST THIS WEEK, I HAD THREE MEDICALLY 01:35:29.654 --> 01:35:31.033 CONFIRMED HEALINGS OF CANCER. 01:35:36.463 --> 01:35:39.292 AND IT'S NOT A VARIETY PROGRAM, I DON'T HAVE ANY GUESTS, IT'S 01:35:39.292 --> 01:35:43.335 JUST ME, JUST PRAYING FOR THE SICK. AND I HAVE LIVE, I GOT 22 01:35:43.335 --> 01:35:45.884 PRAYER PARTNERS TAKING LIVE PHONE CALLS, TAKING HUNDREDS AND 01:35:45.884 --> 01:35:48.974 HUNDREDS OF PHONE CALLS EVERY DAY AND PRAYING FOR PEOPLE, 01:35:48.974 --> 01:35:51.884 CALLING OUT THEIR NAMES ON THE AIR. YOU MAY HAVE SEEN IT, IT'S 01:35:51.884 --> 01:35:54.673 ON THE VICTORY CHANNEL LIVE, OR IT'S ALSO ON OUR HEALING 01:35:54.673 --> 01:35:57.283 NETWORK, AND IT'S ALSO ON OUR YOUTUBE PAGE AND OUR ROKU 01:35:57.283 --> 01:36:01.064 CHANNEL AND OUR FACEBOOK PAGE, YOU CAN SEE IT. IT'S AT NOON, AT 01:36:01.064 --> 01:36:04.394 NOON, MONDAY THROUGH FRIDAY. AND I GOTTA GET HOME BECAUSE I GOT 01:36:04.394 --> 01:36:08.743 THINGS TO DO. BUT, SO I'M NOT TRAVELING AS MUCH NOW BECAUSE I 01:36:08.743 --> 01:36:12.434 GOTTA GET THERE AND BEAT A PATH TO GET HOME IN ORDER TO DO WHAT 01:36:12.434 --> 01:36:16.873 I'M CALLED TO DO. AND SO, AS I SAID, I'M, BUT I WAS HONORED 01:36:16.873 --> 01:36:18.913 WHEN PASTOR HANK CALLED AND SAID, "WOULD YOU COME AND WOULD 01:36:18.913 --> 01:36:23.113 YOU PINCH HIT FOR ME?" SO I'M HONORED TO DO THAT TODAY. 01:36:28.123 --> 01:36:32.391 AND I'M GONNA MISS WATCHING 01:36:32.391 --> 01:36:36.095 THE BIG WORLD CUP FINAL BECAUSE OF YOU. 01:36:40.993 --> 01:36:45.136 AND I'M NOT HAPPY ABOUT IT, BUT I'M GONNA MISS IT BECAUSE OF 01:36:45.136 --> 01:36:54.644 YOU. BUT I DO HAVE A RADIO. SO, AND AT THE RISK OF OFFENDING 01:36:54.644 --> 01:37:06.434 SOMEBODY, I'M PULLING FOR ARGENTINA. I LIKE MESSI, 'CAUSE 01:37:06.434 --> 01:37:12.823 HE'S A MESS. ALL RIGHT. NOW, WHO NEEDS HEALING IN YOUR BACK? 01:37:14.833 --> 01:37:27.764 STAND UP. WHO NEEDS HEALING IN YOUR SHOULDERS? STAND UP. WHO 01:37:27.764 --> 01:37:38.713 NEEDS HEALING IN YOUR HIPS, YOUR KNEES, YOUR FEET? DOCTORS TELL 01:37:38.713 --> 01:37:48.734 ME THAT 60% OF AMERICANS HAVE SOME STAGE OF ARTHRITIS. THAT'S 01:37:48.734 --> 01:37:57.283 NOT GOOD. AND I'M GONNA PRAY. AND GOD'S GONNA BEGIN HEALING 01:37:57.283 --> 01:38:03.734 PEOPLE. NOT BECAUSE OF ME, BUT BECAUSE OF HIM. NOW MY FATHER 01:38:03.734 --> 01:38:07.033 USED HIS RIGHT HAND, BUT HE SAID TO ME, "SON, YOU WILL NOT USE 01:38:07.033 --> 01:38:10.304 YOUR HAND "LIKE I HAVE. "GOD'S GONNA MANIFEST THE WORD OF 01:38:10.304 --> 01:38:12.434 KNOWLEDGE THROUGH YOU, "AND YOU'LL SPEAK." HE SAID, "THE 01:38:12.434 --> 01:38:14.804 POWER OF GOD WILL COME DOWN YOUR SHOULDER AND OUT YOUR HANDS, 01:38:14.804 --> 01:38:17.083 AND WHEN YOU STRETCH OUT YOUR HAND AND PRAY, PEOPLE WILL BE 01:38:17.083 --> 01:38:19.514 HEALED." HE SAID, "YOU'RE GONNA BE ON TV A LOT MORE THAN I'VE 01:38:19.514 --> 01:38:22.724 BEEN, AND YOU WON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO LAY HANDS ON PEOPLE 01:38:22.724 --> 01:38:26.113 LIKE I HAVE HAD." SO GOD'S GONNA USE A DIFFERENT METHOD. 01:38:26.113 --> 01:38:29.533 IT'S NOT ANY BETTER, IT'S NOT ANY WORSE, JUST DIFFERENT. HE 01:38:29.533 --> 01:38:33.163 SAID, "GOD USED MY HAND, HE'S GONNA USE YOUR VOICE." AND HE 01:38:33.163 --> 01:38:35.623 SAID, "YOU'LL FEEL THE POWER COME UP "THROUGH YOUR CHEST, AND 01:38:35.623 --> 01:38:38.264 WHEN YOU SPEAK, "THAT WORD WILL COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH. "AND 01:38:38.264 --> 01:38:42.224 YOUR PEOPLE WILL BE HEALED WHEREVER THEY'RE STANDING." IT'S 01:38:42.224 --> 01:38:45.163 BEEN HAPPENING LIKE THAT FOR MANY, MANY YEARS. IT'S GONNA 01:38:45.163 --> 01:38:49.663 HAPPEN THAT WAY THIS MORNING. SO LAY YOUR HAND ON YOURSELF. 01:38:49.663 --> 01:38:53.623 FATHER, IT'S NOT BY MIGHT, IT'S NOT BY POWER, BUT IT'S BY THE 01:38:53.623 --> 01:38:57.764 HOLY SPIRIT THAT I PRAY THIS PRAYER. AND I THANK YOU THAT 01:38:57.764 --> 01:39:02.024 YOU'RE A HEALING GOD, AND YOU'RE THE SAME YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND 01:39:02.024 --> 01:39:06.104 FOREVER. AND WHAT YOU DID, YOU ARE STILL DOING.
