The subject for this book is just one word: GIVE. But so much is included in that word. Do you realize that “give” is mentioned in the Bible 880 times? How much of yourself do you give to the Lord? How much time do you give to Him? Do you give Him even a tenth of your time, or do you rush around all day until you’re too tired to even talk to Him when it’s over? That’s not what God wants. You have to take time with Him just as God gives His time and attention to us. He gives us His love, grace, peace, wisdom, knowledge, light, fellowship and truth. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16).

We are so blessed to have such a marvelous gift from God. He loved us so much when we were just sinners that He gave us His heart. The Lord told me that He gave His whole heart when He made a Calvary for us and that never before or since has He given all of His love. God has nothing left to give; and thus saith the Lord, if people won’t accept Calvary, they’ll never see Heaven. On the great Day of Rewards, you won’t be sorry that you accepted Calvary and found life.

Jesus came saying, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me (John 14:6). You have to be drawn by the Spirit. No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him (John 6:44). Some people try to make side doors to Heaven; but Jesus said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber (John 10:1). The Bible also says, The soul that sinneth, it shall die (Ezekiel 18:4).

Use the Divine Fruit

In Matthew 5:3-12, the Lord gave us the Beatitudes. Oh, what blessings Jesus gave when He was here, and they are still available to us today; but what are you doing with those wonderful blessings? Are you giving and serving them to others? The Spirit is calling us to daily service now because the Lord has so many people for us to reach in this final hour. They need someone to inspire and encourage them, someone to say, “Jesus loves you. Nobody has ever loved you like Jesus loves you, and nobody has ever cared for you like He cares.”

You must answer the Lord’s call with, “Yes, Lord, I’m ready. I can tell them the story of your love. If I meet people who have never heard of you, I can tell them about the Old Rugged Cross. I can tell them that although they’re sinners, you loved them so much that you died for them; and you have a place called Heaven where they can go and be with you without any sorrow, heartache or despair.”

God has something for each one of you to do. Are you on war-call for Jesus and ready to do battle for Him? Are you on love-call to help people who are so weary and tired of life that they see no way out? They feel that life has been so cruel to them, but it’s because they haven’t had the divine help that you have had. Jesus needs you to go and lift up those weak hands and place them into His nail-riven hands. He needs you to stand there with His faith and greatness and say, “Dear Ones, you can have God’s help. He will give you His love, strength, greatness and anything else you need. The God of miracles lives, and He has power over all.”

The Lord gave us the nine fruits of the Holy Spirit to help us on our journey. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law (Galatians 5:22,23). These fruits are produced in our lives by the Holy Spirit, and He can flow them from our souls into our minds to flush out that which is unpleasant; but many Christians don’t have all of these fruits. How can you be Christlike and not have His fruits?

The Lord said, Ye shall know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:16). We know an apple tree because it produces apples and a peach tree because it produces peaches. In the same way, we can know true children of God by their fruit; so people without the fruits of the Spirit can’t be like Jesus. We don’t judge them because Jesus said, Judge not, that ye be not judged (Matthew 7:1); but He did tell us to look for the fruit in people’s lives. The divine fruits aren’t stubborn or rebellious, and they don’t leave a stench in the nostrils of God. They’re not haughty or high-minded and never cause people to walk around with their noses stuck up in the air and refusing to speak to others. The fruits of the Spirit are full of God’s love, and He needs the love that’s in a born-again soul.

Serve Love

God needs people through whom the Holy Ghost can gush forth His love at any time. They’re rivers of love that come from our innermost being. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water (John 7:38). The Holy Ghost also flows the love of God into our minds. The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us (Romans 5:5). Where does He get that love?—from our souls. The Holy Spirit flows the love that dwells in our souls into our minds so we can serve it to people all over the world.

There’s no limit to the capacity of the soul; it can hold the whole Godhead and all the greatness of God because it’s a part of God. The body is made of flesh; but the soul came from God, and it’s like God Himself. There’s no limit to what God can contain, and so it is with the human soul; but the mind is different. The mind is just like a little cup; and the Psalmist said, My cup runneth over (Psalm 23:5).

In this last hour, God needs people with a lot of love to give. God has given His children such unbelievable love that it even amazes them just how much godly love they carry. In that blood love, we find the grace that is sufficient for every need. The Lord is looking for people who know what His grace really is and are ready to use it.

Gossip Is Dangerous

The fruits of the Spirit bridle the tongue; and if you don’t do that, the Bible says your religion is vain. If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man’s religion is vain (James 1:26). If you gossip, you have no salvation that will take you to Heaven. You may think that more people will miss Heaven because of murder, stealing or other hideous crimes; but thus saith the Lord, there will be more people in hell because of their tongues.

The Bible says our conversation is to be the same as it is in Heaven. For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:20). However, some people have gossiped for so long that they don’t even know they’re gossiping. I hear about such things, and it breaks my heart because they hurt God’s little lambs with their gossip. When you repeat something that doesn’t bless people, you’re out of order with God; and you grieve the Holy Spirit when the Bible says, Grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption (Ephesians 4:30).

When you talk about people, criticize them or pass on negative or untrue things about them, you’re not right with God. You may say whatever you want to about others, but you’ll scream and holler the minute you hear of anybody saying something about you or your past life. None of this shows God’s love; and the Lord said, By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another (John 13:35).

When you have love in your family, you won’t run any of your family members down. Love lifts people up; it doesn’t cast them down. When people start to gossip to you, just say, “Sorry, wrong number. If you want to tell me something, let it be about Jesus.” You may be afraid you’ll insult them, but I like to insult the spirit of the devil; and I never feel bad about insulting his spirit in anybody.

If you’re participating in any of this, you’re spiritually dead, Child; and you don’t know it. The Spirit of God has left you, and you don’t even miss it because you’ve become so used to living in self. You should be living close to God so He can manifest Himself through you.

We Have a Giving God

As you submit and give to God, He gives back to you. Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over (Luke 6:38). The Bible says all we have to do is ask. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened (Matthew 7:7,8). This is so simple that even a child can seek, knock and ask.

When you really seek and yield to the Holy Spirit, He will flow the love, power, peace, gentleness and goodness of God into your innermost being like mighty rivers; and you’ll become a real vessel of the Lord. But when you clog the channels through disobedience, rebellion, gossiping or not giving time to God, then you’re in trouble; and you’ll discover that when the Rapture takes place. Jesus said, I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth (Revelation 3:15,16).

Are you giving today and praying to be all that the Lord wants you to be; or are you lukewarm, failing God and not pleasing Him? Are you sorry for the way you’ve talked to people and how you’ve failed to serve Jesus to them? Have you passed people by without serving them God’s love and grace or perhaps even hurt them?

If you want to make the one flight out, you must be a member of the bridal company and be without spot. Thou art all fair, my love; there is no spot in thee (Song of Solomon 4:7). Could Jesus say that about you today? Are you standing on holy ground? Do you have a holy heart and mind? Do you have holy eyes to see what the Lord is doing and holy ears to hear what the Spirit is saying? Are you walking and talking like Jesus? Do you treat people like Jesus would treat them? Do you get answers from Heaven to people’s questions or do you give them your own thoughts and theories? It’s dangerous to give out your own theories. If you can’t give people a God-answer, don’t give them any answer at all. Just tell them you’ll pray for them and encourage them to look to the Lord.

Love Changes People

The Lord is strict, but He gives us plenty of love; and every time you use that love, it multiplies. Unfortunately, when people use hate and rebellion, those things multiply, too. That’s why one of the fruits of the Spirit is self-control. I hear people say again and again, “I just can’t stop myself from doing this or that”; but that’s what we have Jesus for. When you don’t have control over yourself, that means your salvation is no good; and then the devil can use you. You’ll say things you have no business saying, and you’ll argue and fight just like people in the world do.

When I got saved, I quit all of that. I turned my temper on the devil and fought him instead of people; but some so-called Christians will fight and carry on all the time, except when they’re in church. Then they shout and supposedly praise God as if they’re going to Heaven; but no one can get into Heaven acting like that. The Bible is the only roadmap to Glory.

The Lord gives us so much, and He’ll give us even more if we’ll serve it. From the time God saved me, I gave Him everything; and God gives me everything I need in return because I serve it. I know what the Lord can do for people with His love and grace, and I know His promises are true. I know what family prayer and a family altar are, and I know what it means to have a home of love. Nobody in the Angley family ever talked to people about any other member of the family. We were taught to show respect to God, respect to each other and respect to our mother and father.

Love was never a stranger to me, but I find that it is to most people before they come to Jesus. I always had so much love, and it kept me from going into deep, deep sin. I wasn’t a saint, and I didn’t do everything I should have because I was a sinner; but I didn’t go into the vile sin that many people do.

Mama rocked me in a cradle of God’s love and told me about Heaven. I don’t remember the first time I heard about it because it seemed like I always knew about Heaven and hell. Love gives only the truth, and I can look back and feast on so many wonderful truths I was taught about the Lord. My mother didn’t force anything down my throat; she ruled me and taught me with such love that I couldn’t get away from her teachings. God marked me with great love, and that’s why I have so much of it to give to others.

God Gives Miracles

I’m always ready to give to help somebody else. I can say like Peter, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk (Acts 3:6). Through the power of God, I’m able to cry that to multitudes of people when we travel to other nations. “Rise up, crippled ones; rise up, blind ones. Rise up, all, and be made whole. Rise up, lepers and those of you who have AIDS, and be cleansed at once by the power of God.”

We’re documenting as many AIDS cases as we can because many people won’t believe the Bible, but they’ll believe medical science. AIDS miracles are opening doors for us in Africa, and it’s marvelous the way people are being delivered and set free; but it wouldn’t be possible if I didn’t give myself completely to the Lord in prayers, fastings and living in the Word.

In one nation we traveled to, a lady hadn’t walked for eight years; but after prayer, she got up and started walking just as if she had never had a problem. I prayed for a five-year-old girl in the invalid section who had never walked. The next night, her daddy brought her to the platform so the people could see that God had given her a miracle. The Lord healed so many in that country because I give myself to the presence of God. It doesn’t matter if I get enough rest or sleep; I just have to be ready for God to use me.

I never tire of giving so much of my time and myself to the work of God so I can help Him make miracles for people. I give so the deaf can hear and the mute can talk, so the alcoholics can be delivered no matter how many devils are in them. If people really want to be free, God has given me the power to deliver them.

In another one of my crusades, a man came running through the audience and lunged at me screaming, “We are legion, and we have come to destroy you.” It scared people half to death; but when I threw up my hands, he fell like a rock under the power of God. When he got up, the devils had gone out of him; and he was so excited that he started running around the crowd of people. He returned the next night and apologized saying, “Rev. Angley, that wasn’t me talking last night.” I had already known that because the Lord had revealed to me that he was full of devils.

It’s something to look into devil-possessed souls and see those demons, and the Lord has spent thousands of hours teaching me demonology. You must know your enemy, and you must know what spirit controls you. The Lord told me I would have to know the Spirit of God, the spirit of the devil and the spirit of man and be able to separate them. In His presence, He lets me see and know so much about people; and I never cease to marvel at it.

Just Like Jesus

I want to be just like Jesus, and He’s the only person I’ve ever wanted to be like. Even when I was in the world, I never saw anybody I wanted to be like until I met Jesus. He’s the most remarkable personality I have ever met, and I love everything about Him.

I never thought I would see Jesus until I got to Heaven, but He has allowed me to see Him again and again. He’ll appear when I’m praying for people, and I’ve seen Him bend low over someone who has fallen in the Spirit and make that person whole. I carry the rod of truth just as Moses did, and I give people the power and the Word of God.

We all can and must be just like Jesus if we’re going to be on the glory road that will take us to Heaven, and God will accept nothing less in this hour. We must have the same Spirit that Jesus had as He looked out over Jerusalem and said, O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not (Matthew 23:37)!

The Gospel is the greatest gift we have, and I won’t contaminate it for any amount of money or for anyone. I’m not in the ministry for a popularity contest. I give people the Word like I feel Jesus would give it, and I love to teach and preach so much that I’d rather do that than eat or sleep. If I could just go on and on serving people, I would still be in many nations today, teaching, helping and healing people. To serve and be like Jesus is the greatest privilege of my life.

God needs people who will bring the Jesus hope to those who have never had hope before. He needs people who know Jesus was the very Son of God and who will take the person of Jesus Christ to the world. God needs people who know His works, know what He will do for lost sinners and know that He’ll never turn them away. He needs those who will give them a love-welcome to come to Jesus.

God is looking for people who will stand in the gap and make up the hedge. And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none (Ezekiel 22:30). In this tragic verse, God found no one to make up the hedge; and He destroyed the land.

If God doesn’t find people to stand in the gap today, so many will be lost and damned to an eternal hell. Jesus told about that place of eternal torment when He talked of the rich man who had died and lifted up his eyes in hell crying, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame (Luke 16:24).

Oh, you must stand! You must be that man, woman, boy or girl who will take the place God has for you, not so the land can be saved but so the souls of the people who live in the land can be saved. The Lord is seeking to save souls, and He’s calling on you to give and work for Him.

We Must Serve

The Lord has mighty things in store for us in this last hour, but we have to give Him everything. We must be complete in Christ Jesus; and when we are, we’ll know there’s nothing lacking and that we have all of Jesus to serve.

The Bible declares that Jesus is our all in all. That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge (I Corinthians 1:5). Jesus came to make us the righteousness of God. For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him (II Corinthians 5:21). When we’re made new in His righteousness and true holiness, we’re born-again people who will go forth and sin no more. We become just like Jesus. We realize that when we speak, it’s the same as Jesus speaking. When Jesus speaks, it’s the same as the Father speaking; and when the Father speaks, it’s done. For I am the LORD: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass (Ezekiel 12:25).

We must serve the same great I-Am who brought the Israelites out of bondage; however, they didn’t appreciate Him or stay true to Him. They could have been in Canaan in just eleven days; but instead, they wandered in the wilderness for forty years, and multitudes of graves are there as a result of their disobedience. I’ve learned so many great lessons from the Israelites as I’ve followed them through their journey again and again. They had such miracle power made available to them. They had the burning bush, the pillar of fire and the great cloud—Jesus. They had it all—Father, Son and Holy Ghost—but they sold everything to the devil for a handful of ashes.

Sell Out to God

We can’t sow sparingly in this final hour. We must sow in a great way, and then we’ll come out victorious because God said we would. So how much will you give? Will you give just fifty or seventy-five percent? If so, think about how many souls you’ll cause God to lose; and then think about what you could have done if you had given 100 percent. Some people will volunteer in different ways for the Lord, and they may do it for a little while; but it doesn’t last. Why?—because they don’t keep the first love they received at Calvary. They only speak out of enthusiasm and emotionalism like Peter did before he received the Holy Ghost on the Day of Pentecost.

Your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost. What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own (I Corinthians 6:19)? You’re not your own; you’re bought with a price. For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s (I Corinthians 6:20).

When you accepted Christ, you willingly sold yourself to the Lord. At first, you had sold yourself to the devil; but you found out that didn’t work and that you would still have to meet death one day. Then you discovered that you could have the Son who had conquered death, hell and the grave; and you rose up and gave yourself to the Lord saying, “God, if you’ll save me, I’ll do anything for you.” Have you kept your word? I have, and I’ll do anything for Jesus and to win lost souls. The Lord can have my life all at one time or in pieces; it’s all His no matter how He wants to use it. I say, “Give me souls or let me die.”

I don’t want to be on this Earth for one more minute when I can no longer win souls for the Lord. I live to win souls; that’s my life! We’re here to take Jesus’ place and to be walking, living epistles before Him. Many people may never open a Bible, but they can see and study us; so we must be examples of believers.

Grace Is All We Need

To be what God wants us to be, we must contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints. Ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints (Jude 1:3). I told the Lord I’d give anything to have that faith; and when I was desperately seeking and fasting for it, all hell came against me. I was amazed at how many devils came against me, but it was worth it all.

In the midst of that battle, the Lord shocked me when He let me know that I had the spirit of Job. He said to the devil, “Hast thou considered my servant Ernest? He’s perfect and upright before me.” That astounded me.

We are special to God when we have His giving strength and the divine love and grace that will never say no to God, and we must know that His grace is sufficient and never grumble or complain. The Bible tells us that we must go from faith to faith and grace to grace. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith (Romans 1:17).

Everything we need is in the word “grace.” Through grace, we have the whole favor of God and daily fellowship with Him; and we come into the reality of divinity. Grace gives you courage and strength and connects you with the throne so you can pray without a doubt saying, “Father, you always hear me.” It’s just that simple, and only through grace can we be saved to begin with. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast (Ephesians 2:8,9).

It’s by grace that we are made holy, sanctified and set apart; and Jesus prayed for our sanctification when He was here. And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are (John 17:11). We can be one in His unity, love and power. We can talk like Jesus, walk like Jesus and pray like Jesus. We can work like Him and be soul winners like Him. We can be just like Him.

We must have grace-obedience because all answered prayer and all of God’s promises come to us through grace. When you use grace for each promise, you’ll be faithful to meet the conditions of those promises; but if you don’t use grace on the promises, they’re just print on paper. Only grace puts the life and the power of Almighty God in His promises.

We can have such vision through the grace of God. It gives great understanding of the Almighty, His works and His miraculous plan of redemption. It makes us want only God’s divine will for our lives; and I have a standing order up in Heaven that says, “Lord, when I ask anything for myself or someone else that’s not your divine will, don’t grant it.”

Seek Only What God Wants

I have learned not to contend for something that God doesn’t want me to have. The Israelites wanted a king, but God wanted to be their King. He never intended for a man to be their king, and that was their great downfall. Samuel had warned them and nearly cried his heart out about it. But the thing displeased Samuel, when they said, Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed unto the LORD. And the LORD said unto Samuel, Hearken unto the voice of the people in all that they say unto thee: for they have not rejected thee, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them (I Samuel 8:6,7).

God then chose Saul to be their first king; and in the beginning, he was so humble that he hid himself when he was to be crowned. And when they sought him [Saul], he could not be found…And the LORD answered, Behold, he hath hid himself among the stuff (I Samuel 10:21,22).

Saul had everything in his favor, and the Lord had even prophesied through him at one time. And the Spirit of God came upon him [Saul], and he prophesied among them (I Samuel 10:10). But Saul lost all of this and failed God miserably, and he eventually committed suicide. Now the Philistines fought against Israel: and the men of Israel fled from before the Philistines, and fell down slain in mount Gilboa. And the Philistines followed hard upon Saul and upon his sons; and the Philistines slew Jonathan, and Abinadab, and Melchishua, Saul’s sons. And the battle went sore against Saul, and the archers hit him; and he was sore wounded of the archers. Then said Saul unto his armourbearer, Draw thy sword, and thrust me through therewith; lest these uncircumcised come and thrust me through, and abuse me. But his armourbearer would not; for he was sore afraid. Therefore Saul took a sword, and fell upon it. And when his armourbearer saw that Saul was dead, he fell likewise upon his sword, and died with him. So Saul died, and his three sons, and his armourbearer, and all his men, that same day together (I Samuel 31:1-6).

All of Saul’s sons died with him; he was completely destroyed, and the man who had once had so much lifted up his eyes in regret in eternal darkness. I’m sure many of the Israelites were sorry after they died and realized how wrong their request had been, but then it was too late.

No Regrets

I’ve heard many people say that they were sorry for not being a better mother, father, husband or wife or that they were sorry for treating their parents like they did. People are sorry for so many things; but if you give yourself to the Lord and His work, you’ll never be sorry.

The Psalmist said, Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life (Psalm 23:6). You’ll never be sorry for having that goodness and mercy; and you’ll never be sorry for having divine meekness, the humility of Jesus. You can’t forgive people for everything they do to you through human humility; it can only be done through divine humility. Without that kind of humility, you’ll carry grudges and bitterness; and you don’t want to be guilty of that.

When people come to the end of their journey, whether they live to see the Rapture or die ahead of time, they’ll never be sorry for giving their lives to God. During one of my early revivals, a lady who attended the church where I was preaching was dying; and she called for me. I hurried to get to her; and when I arrived, she was passing into Heaven. I’ve never forgotten how lit up she was. When I looked into her face, it was like a pool of glory; and as I leaned over her, she whispered, “Be good, and meet me in Glory.” That was her farewell; and shortly after that, she took her last breath.

That was a wonderful way to die. The glory of the Lord had filled the room; and she wasn’t sorry that she had been born new, quit all of her sinning and served the Lord. She hadn’t just joined a dead church, been baptized in water and failed to live free from sin; she had been to the Old Rugged Cross and found the blood that Jesus had shed, and it had washed away all of her sins.

People may go to church but never be taught about the divine blood. The Bible says that without the shedding of blood, there’s no forgiveness for sins. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission (Hebrews 9:22). Only that grace-blood can keep you walking in the Spirit and not in the flesh. Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh (Galatians 5:16).

You Must Have the Holy Ghost

We’re end-time people, and we’re on our way to Rapture ground. Most of you who are ready today will be raptured; you won’t go the way of the grave, and I look forward to that great catching-away. I’ve already experienced it in a vision that will always live with me, and it was so real that it won’t be any greater a reality to me when it happens. I was caught up in the air; and there were people everywhere shouting one word, “Hallelujah!” That’s the only word which is the same in every language. When I came to myself, I too was shouting, “Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!” I was aflame with the power of the Holy Ghost!

The Holy Ghost is a real person. He’s our teacher, our guide and our Spirit of truth; and everybody needs Him. The Lord told me the Holy Ghost is a must for those who make the Rapture because it will take more power to go by air than by the way of the grave. And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you (John 14:16,17).

The Bible says, It is appointed unto men once to die (Hebrews 9:27). But those who make the Rapture won’t die. We shall all be changed, In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump (I Corinthians 15:51,52). Some preachers have taught that the change will be death, but the Lord told me death will have no part in it; the change will take place according to the power that worketh within us. But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:11).

Untold thousands have received the Holy Ghost through this Jesus ministry. We’ve had over 60,000 receive the Holy Ghost in just one overseas crusade; they were numbered by God Himself. The latter rain of the Spirit falls upon people like a mighty rainstorm; and they’re delivered from voodoo, witchcraft and all kinds of darknesses of the devil.

Hell Is for Eternity

If you’re unsaved today, you must get rid of your sins or you’ll find yourself at the White Throne Judgment and hear the Lord say, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:41).

Hell was made for the devil and his angels, and God never intended for people to go there. He loved the man and woman He had made; but they went to the tree of death, the one God had told them not to go to. But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die (Genesis 2:17). They did die spiritually, and we have no record that they ever got back to God.

Since that time, so many other people have fallen into sin that hell has been enlarged to make room for all who will go there. Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it (Isaiah 5:14).

There’s no way to ever get out of hell and the lake of fire. There’s no end to eternity, and the Lord won’t ever again remember those who go to hell. He’ll wipe those people out of His mind just as if they had never existed. Then He’ll take His great love handkerchief and wipe away all our tears as well as His own, and there will be no more tears forevermore. And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away (Revelation 21:4).

Give Yourself to Jesus

Everybody has free choice now, so come to the tree of life, Jesus. He said, I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10). If you give yourself to Jesus, you’ll have that abundant life, a life you’ll never find in the world. When I got saved, I gave up the world completely. I went to church one way that Sunday night, and I left absolutely free. I was such a new creature that I had to get acquainted with the new me.

Since then, I’ve given everything to God. I pray, fast and live in His Word. Many fasts go as long as forty days at a time, but I’ll do anything for lost souls and for the work of God. I’ve endured many persecutions, but I’m glad I can suffer for His name’s sake. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake (Luke 21:17). I know I will be blessed in the end. Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness’ sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven (Matthew 5:10-12).

No matter what I’m going through, I have a rejoicing heart; but the devil doesn’t want you to rejoice. He wants to rob you of all joy and happiness, but you can’t allow that. Use the blood on the devil and send him on his way.

I’ve given myself to the whole will of God, not His permissible will; and that’s what Jesus did when He was here. God is our Father, too, and we’re to please Him. When I come to the end of a day, I want to know that I have pleased God, that I’ve done everything He wanted of me that day.

Stand for the Truth

Again, I say that you must give your tongue to the Lord. Some people will say cruel or hurtful things and think they can just say, “I’m sorry,” and it will heal up everything; but that’s not the healing balm. Words come easy, and some people are full of them, but God is not full of words; He’s full of promises. He gave all the true men and women of God promises, and His promises are true. We must take the Gospel of truth to the whole world.

We have to be sanctified, pure and holy like God Himself; and when you’re sanctified holy, you will have a sanctified tongue. Jesus said, Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth (John 17:17). To sanctify means to make holy, and you’re not sanctified until you’re made holy. Only then will the Holy Ghost come in to dwell with you forever if you live right. He will teach you, use you and direct you in all the ways of the Lord.

We have the holy Word of God to tell us all of these things; but people are not getting much of the truth today, and it grieves me. There are so many dead Christians who have no feeling toward God; they’re not helping evangelize the world, and they’re not really concerned about getting people saved.

There are ministers who go to other countries, but they only preach a social gospel. Some of them even teach people that it’s all right to mix witchcraft with the Gospel, but that’s a lie of the devil. Judgment will fall on those false preachers one day; and if God wasn’t so merciful and longsuffering, He’d have already killed them. After these ministers spread their deceit, then we have to go in and teach the people the truth.

Some people think that “good” witchcraft is all right, but the Bible declares that all witchcraft comes from the devil. There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch. Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD (Deuteronomy 18:10-12). God won’t have anything to do with witchcraft, and He had witches burned at the stake in Old Testament days. Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live (Exodus 22:18).

Be Ye Holy

If you don’t give yourself to God, you’ll give yourself to the seventeen works of the flesh. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God (Galatians 5:19-21).

These works can be found in the lives of many so-called Christians today; but God said if you do any of them, you’ll have no part in His Kingdom. Many churches don’t teach against the works of the flesh, and many people have been reared in a family that didn’t teach against them either. They have never received the Word of truth, and now they don’t want it. The Bible said the time would come when people wouldn’t endure sound doctrine, and that time is here. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables (II Timothy 4:3,4).

Are you living holy today no matter what you’re going through? Do you ignore family and friends who reject your God? Paul gave up family, friends and so much else; but he counted it nothing so that he might have Christ. I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ (Philippians 3:8). Paul saw the Pearl of great price.

Paul Gave Everything

At one time, Paul had persecuted the Church and had done all he could to have many people put to death. He said he was the chief of sinners. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief (I Timothy 1:15). Paul was sorry for all he had done; and when the Lord forgave him, he gave his whole life to God. He suffered many awful things, but he never grumbled or complained.

Paul and Silas were sent to jail in Philippi and severely beaten, but they still sang praises to the Lord. And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailor to keep them safely: Who, having received such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks. And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God (Acts 16:23-25).

Paul ended up spending so much time in prison, but he never stopped working for the Lord. He redeemed the time as the Bible says we should. Redeeming the time, because the days are evil (Ephesians 5:16). Paul wrote more books of the New Testament than anybody else; and what wonderful revelations he received from the Lord, true revelations we can depend on. Paul wrote as he was moved upon by the Holy Ghost. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost (II Peter 1:21).

When Paul came to the end of his journey, he said, For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing (II Timothy 4:6-8).

When Paul wrote this letter to Timothy, he wasn’t down and out or full of regrets. He knew he had given his all, and he was ready to die. Paul knew that Nero’s chop block was going to be his destiny, but he also knew it was the will of God. Jesus had died for Paul, and Paul was going to die for His name’s sake.

You Can Be Forgiven

There’s a crown of life for all of us; but if you miss that crown, you’ll receive the crown of death. You will have trampled the blood of God’s Son underfoot and blasphemed against the Holy Ghost, and Jesus said there’s no forgiveness for that. Whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the world to come (Matthew 12:32). There’s no hope for anyone after death. All repentance must take place while you’re still in this body of clay, and only godly sorrow can bring you to Jesus. Godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation (II Corinthians 7:10).

Godly sorrow means you’re as sorry for your sins as God is that you committed them; and if you have godly sorrow today, the Lord will hear your confession and forgive you for Christ’s sake. He’ll wash away all of your sins and cast them into the sea of forgetfulness, to never remember them against you again. He will turn again, he will have compassion upon us; he will subdue our iniquities; and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea (Micah 7:19). Jesus suffered so much to give you everything; and when He said to His Father, It is finished (John 19:30), it meant the plan of redemption was complete. The devil no longer had a chance.

Are You Ready?

The Spirit is drawing people to the Lord from all over the world at this time. We’re in the final hour, and Jesus is soon coming; so you must be ready. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh (Matthew 24:44). If you wake up some morning to find the Rapture has taken place, it will be the worst nightmare you’ve ever had because nothing will equal the horrible fear and torment you will have to face in the Tribulation Period. You will know that you had been given the truth, and you’ll have nothing but regrets. Your babies and little children will be gone; and maybe even your companion, mother or daddy will be gone. You’ll go to church, and all the true saints of God will be gone. It will be a nightmare, and you’ll soon live that nightmare if you don’t get ready.

If you have not yet found the Lord, don’t be sorry for the rest of your life. You may have failed God for years, but the end of the journey can be different. Jesus suffered, bled and died for you so that you could have a glorious journey. He’s already paid for it, and it’s all yours; so you can have forgiveness today.

Come to Jesus

The Lord gave His whole heart when He gave you Jesus, and Jesus gave all when He gave Himself for you. You’ll never be sorry if you accept the truth, give and do what the Lord wants you to do. Don’t talk about the Jesus life; live it and serve Jesus to the lost and dying.

If you need forgiveness, say this prayer right now, remembering that there’s no other name under Heaven through which you can be saved. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Jesus is the only way, the Savior of the world.

Oh, God, I am so sorry that I’ve sinned against you and trampled your divine blood underfoot. I beg for your forgiveness. I know I’m nothing without you and that life isn’t worth living without you. I want your Jesus life, and I’m confessing all my wrongdoings. I believe you died for my sins and that your divine blood washes away all of my sins. Come into my heart, Jesus! Come on in!

If you believe that prayer, now you can shout, Hallelujah! All my sins are gone! I no longer have anything to be sorry for because I have a clean slate to start a new life. You’ll be glad you lived that clean life when the Lord tells you on that great day to enter into the joys of the Lord.

Believe and Receive

If you need healing, believe with me now. You have the faith because the Bible says, God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith (Romans 12:3); and you can have as many measures as you will use. The Lord also said if two agree on any one thing touching Heaven, it shall be done. If two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven (Matthew 18:19). I’m one, and you’re two. This has worked for untold multitudes all over the world.

Lord, I bring the people to you in obedience to your Word. You ordained me with power from On High to bring the sick and afflicted to you to be healed, and faith in God heals the sick. I am not their healer; you’re the healer, and I’m the witness. I come in the blood name of Jesus for their healings and miracles. I curse the AIDS. Medical science has not found the cure; but we have it in Jesus, and thousands have been healed of AIDS, diabetes, heart trouble, lung trouble, leprosy and many other diseases. I command all the diseases to go. Heal! in the blood name of Jesus. Heal!

Feel this power going into you like it went into me that great night so many years ago when Jesus made me whole. I’d gone to the edge of the grave and thought for sure I had only a few more days to live, and then it happened—the Lord came and healed me all over. I was so close to my miracle and didn’t know it. That’s why I’m here today and able to help you and tell you that nobody has ever loved you like Jesus loves you, and nobody has ever cared like He cares.

God bless you. Write and let me know what happened to you today.

Thus Saith the Lord

Thus saith the Lord, reach up into my glory and take a miracle. Only believe because I am ready to give miracles in abundance to my people. I am ready to serve you now through the power of my Holy Spirit, so open your heart’s door and take my great anointing for any miracle you need. My Spirit will flow my great anointing into your innermost being. Open wide the door of your innermost being for miracle greatness, miracle power, the miracle touch in the blood name of Jesus. This is your hour of victory, saith the Lord. This is your hour of revelation if you’ll believe, believe, believe.
