The Compassion of Calvary Led Us to Jamaica
by Maxine Young
October 2007
The crusade began with the ministers’ meeting. “I have brought you the Bread of life,” Reverend Angley told the ministers. “I preach the Word of God and the Lord confirms it.” Speaking with great love and tenderness that contrasted vividly with the life and death message he gave, the ministers were told, “You must be free of sin. If not, hell will be your destiny. You desire to be in His presence and feel His heartbeat and for that to happen you must be a holy vessel.” It was good preparation for the services to come.
In the first service Friday evening, the clouds were dark and menacing; it looked like rain for sure. As we got off the buses that took us to the open-air field, the first drops began to fall. Umbrellas went up. Early arrivals sat patiently, some under umbrellas, some unprotected. Several faithful church members walked back and forth in front of the platform, praying. Vulnerable equipment was covered. Before Reverend Angley came onto the platform, however, the rain had stopped and bothered us no more throughout the crusade. Nevertheless, the evangelist assured the crowd that the weather never stopped him, and he described one terrible storm in Nigeria that he had preached through in spite of the fact that the driving wind and rain could have blown him off the platform. God moved in a mighty way, people were saved, healed and delivered. Reverend lets nothing stop him when it comes to souls. He didn’t only talk about the compassion of Calvary; he demonstrated it throughout the crusade. “We’ll have thousands of miracles before this crusade is over,” the minister said. “When the Lord sets you free, you’re free indeed!”
Tom and Lisa sang “How Great Thou Art” as the Lord poured His greatness throughout the crowd. The Lord through Reverend Angley began to call out people for miracles. One person had been told she had four months to live; now the cancer of the stomach was healed. God moved for two people with AIDS and for a man headed for open heart surgery. A person with a damaged lung had the lung re-created. A man was healed from the results of a fall he had three years ago when he was painting a house. More AIDS victims were healed as the man of God saw in a vision the fire of God covering the sky. “Get ready for any miracle,” Reverend Angley told the crowd. And the power of the Lord continued to move for ulcerated stomachs, for crippling arthritis and for a severe nervous condition.
Through the gift of discerning, the preacher said that fourteen sinners were on the verge of God’s rejection. “I’ve been praying for you,” he said. “I’m sent of God for the lost in Jamaica. Let the Lord use you; the Tribulation Period is coming; it’s time to take on the compassion of Calvary. I’ve prayed for you all hours; you’re not here by accident: 137 will be saved in this first prayer.” It was time for the backsliders to say the sinners’ prayer, and the whole crowd said it together. Some in the crowd were in witchcraft, some in voodooism, both were darknesses of the devil.
The evangelist preaches the truth. “Let’s hear it,” he said to the crowd: “I believe in miracles because I believe in God! I will accept anything the Lord offers me this night, and I will give Him all the praise, honor and glory, and I will declare He did it.” The sermon Friday night was “Masterful Surgery.” “This is not ordinary surgery, this is painless,” the man of God declared. “By the touch of the Master’s hand, this healing power flows. Jesus brought life for soul, mind and body.
“The light shineth, and when it shines on you, it brings healing,” the preacher stated with conviction. “The light shineth! It’s marvelous to see the light of God shining on people. God is in this place: He is ready to bring deliverance to you, to set you free. The God of miracles lives!
“In the ninth chapter of Mark we read that a man brought his son to Jesus. He didn’t stop seeking deliverance for his son because the disciples couldn’t deliver the boy. ‘Master,’ he said, ‘I took him to your disciples and they couldn’t deliver him.’ They hadn’t been fasting; they didn’t at this time have that delivering power. But the father didn’t stop; he said, ‘Master, if you can do anything…’ Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth (Mark 9:23). Jesus threw that if right back to him; if thou canst believe!
“If you can believe, you can be delivered tonight,” said the preacher. “It can be masterful surgery for you. Perhaps you have left a loved one dying in the hospital. Jesus is where that one is right now. Are you believing for masterful surgery? Are you believing the Lord has healing hands? Are you going to believe He will create and re-create? Jesus is alive forevermore; no power can defeat Him. He conquered death, hell and the grave for us. He’s saying, Come on! Come on! Trust me!”
Why Did You Doubt?
“The Lamb of God is walking your waters, your stormy sea,” continued the man of God. “Get ready, get off the boat. Some of you have been clinging to that little raft, trying to help in every way you could, and it wasn’t enough; your loved one isn’t getting any better. Jesus said, Oh ye of little faith, why did you doubt? He feels faith or the lack of it. Faith is a gift from God. Little faith is human faith.
“The father cried out, ‘I believe! Help thou my unbelief!’ That’s what people need to do: Pray, Lord, I believe, help thou my unbelief! If there’s a miracle you need, the God of miracles is ready tonight! Are you ready for your miracle? Some people say, ‘If it be God’s will, He will heal me.’ But do they go to the doctor and say, ‘If it’s your will you can help me’? Healing is God’s divine will.
“Are you ready for your miracle?” asked the evangelist. “God is ready. The Bible says that great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all (Matthew 12:15). Glorify Him; He is ready to heal you. He healed sinners but He told them to sin no more lest a worse thing come upon them.”
Sin No More
“A woman taken in adultery was about to be stoned to death,” Reverend Angley went on. “Jesus came on the scene, and everyone stopped. He wrote in the sand; I believe He wrote the names of the whores the men had been with, and they dropped their stones and left. Jesus looked around and asked the woman where were her accusers. ‘Hath no man condemned thee?’ She said, ‘No man, Lord.’ And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more (John 8:11). Jesus never told anyone to do something they could not do. Some claim they cannot live free from sin. If not, they will go to hell. All sinners are going to hell. If you say everyone has to sin, yet they still are going to Heaven, it’s a lie of the devil. No sin can enter Heaven. How many sins do you think you can commit and still get into Heaven? If you preachers don’t preach against all sin, you will be held responsible,” Reverend Angley warned. “You can’t sin even a little and go to Heaven. If you lose Heaven you have lost everything for all eternity.” The soul that sinneth, it shall die (Ezekiel 18:20).
“Don’t doubt God’s miracles. Use faith so that the Lord can bring miracles to you. True faith is acting out all God has said.”
Saturday’s Service
The service started out with a number of songs by The Cathedral Trio, softening hearts and making people receptive to accept their miracles. “AIDS in the last stages,” said Reverend Angley, “is being healed through the power in the divine blood of Jesus. Mail comes into Grace Cathedral from people telling that they were healed of AIDS through this Jesus ministry; hundreds of people have been healed of AIDS and the healings medically documented. To the Lord goes all the glory for it!”
This night the Lord moved for a person who recently had a baby and was so worried that her baby would have AIDS. The man who gave her AIDS was not her husband, but she was healed and her baby was healed.
A grandfather, sixty-three, had lost two children and two grandchildren to AIDS. His wife was in the last stages of cancer, but she and his remaining child and grandchild were all healed.
A man with a large rupture had undergone heart surgery that was not a success, but the heart was made well in the crusade and the rupture healed.
A woman had suffered three nervous breakdowns; there were many deaths in her family. Now, one she loved very much was dying with AIDS. The Lord was healing that one and healing her nervous system.
Another woman had seen six deaths in her family because of AIDS, and a seventh one was in a dying condition. But through the discerning of the Lord she was told that healing had taken place.
A backslider had committed a serious crime, one he should have been in prison for. His first name began with F, his father’s name began with C, and his grandfather’s with a G. “Give your heart to God right now,” he was told, and “everyone help him say the sinners’ prayer.” Everyone said the prayer, and now the Lord revealed that he had salvation as well as healing. “Never go back on the Lord,” the minister warned.
Cancer and spinal injuries were healed. Many arthritis healings took place, more AIDS miracles, and a woman was healed of a female condition. A three-year-old with just part of the brain received a miracle. These were just the beginning of miracles.
Reverend Angley testified about the great miracle the Lord had given him when he was dying. Thousands of times throughout the ensuing years when he puts his head on the pillow at night, he praises God for this marvelous deliverance, thanking Him that he has no pain.
“I have no life of my own,” the man of God said; “I’ve given my life completely to Him. That’s why God moves like He does in my services.” God was moving for souls, and the Lord numbered 99 who were about to come to the Lord and 184 who were lukewarm but would catch on fire for Him. “Stand up and say the sinners’ prayer,” the audience was told. “After you are born again, fasting, praying and living in the Word of God will take you into the greatness of God.”
Reverend Angley preached that night on “Demonology and the Tree of Death.” “How much do you know about the devil?” he asked. “How much has he deceived you? If you touch the tree of death you will die. Jesus put Himself under human bondage and came out free through the divine blood. He let us know that all manner of sin will be forgiven except blaspheming the Holy Spirit. You can’t come to the Father unless you are drawn by that Holy Spirit. If you blaspheme Him, He can’t draw you.
“Many here tonight are in witchcraft,” said the man of God. “You can’t be delivered from it unless you want to be. If preachers won’t get witchcraft out of their church, God will push them out and replace them with someone who will.
“All witchcraft is of the devil; some are born into it; some are in it through fear. It’s the divine, sinless blood of Jesus that will destroy witchcraft. A child of God does not need to fear witchcraft.
“One night at church while I was casting out devils,” said Reverend Angley, “I heard a woman at the back of the auditorium suddenly start screaming. The devils that I had just cast out of a person were invited by the devils that possessed the woman in back to come in, and they did. There was no blood on the woman’s soul to keep them out.
“Some of you shout in church through demon power,” said the man of God. “Jesus said there was a fire in hell that would never be quenched, and the Lord in the 1954 visitation showed me a great iron door that He would slam shut at the end of civilization and never remember what was shut out. To avoid being one of those who will be shut out, use the blood, take it into your heart and be born again. Serve the Lord in truth and gladness and use the compassion of Calvary to pray for lost souls.”
Sunday’s Service
“Jesus took the Old Rugged Cross and made it a Glorious Cross, a Cross for everyone,” said the preacher. “You must deny self and take up the Glorious Cross. Self is your worst enemy. The service tonight is dedicated to the healing of death diseases, especially AIDS. I’m ready to meet the devil head-on,” the preacher stated. “The more people I can get hating the devil, the more devils will have to go.”
The Cathedral Trio came to the platform to sing several songs, preparing the people to receive from God. “Think about Jesus wrapping His arms around you,” suggested the preacher. “How wonderful it is to be sheltered in the arms of the great Shepherd, Jesus! All is peace, love and joy in the arms of Jesus where we find help, under whose wings we have come to rest. We have found a resting place this side of Heaven. What will it be like on the hills of Glory? Eye hath not seen, ear hath not heard; nothing has entered the heart of man that the Lord has in store for those who make it through, those who stay under the blood.
“The devil is afraid of the blood. Through the blood you can put him to flight. The Bible says to submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you (James 4:7). The devil is a bluffer; don’t fear the devil; fear God. Godly fear honors God. Godly fear is what the Lord wants His servants to have, to be separated from the world, and to have fear that honors Him.
“Jesus prayed for the disciples, recorded in John 17. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world (John 17:16). He not only prayed for the disciples but for all who would come after them, even us.”
Deep Valleys
The sermon that night: “Valleys, Valleys, Deep, Deep Valleys.” The man of God described the great valley he went through when his precious wife was taken to Heaven. The crowd listened intently, and there were many tears. Reverend Angley and Angel had shared a great unbelievable love and had worked hard to start the Lord’s work at Grace Cathedral. The preacher had thought they would always be together forever. “The Lord told me He had marked her for me,” said the preacher, “and we fit together as we traveled and worked for God. Then the call came for us to settle down and build a work for the Lord. I thought we would get it established in a year’s time, and then we could go forth to the world and put the work at Grace Cathedral in the hands of a capable minister.” But for over fifty years, Grace Cathedral has been in the capable hands of Reverend Angley.
“Angel and I never had to ask God where were the miracles; the miracles were always there,” said the preacher. “The Lord tried to tell me that Angel would not always be with me. He said that the time would come that Angel and I would not be sleeping together. I thought He meant we would have twin beds because the angel of the Lord is subject to come to me anytime during the night, and I have to be ready. The angel of the Lord comes to deliver the message of God to me, and he wakes me as gently as you would wake a little one.
“When I told Angel the time was coming that we would have to have twin beds, we wouldn’t be sleeping together, she looked to the floor a moment. Then she looked into my eyes and said, ‘The only way I would agree to twin beds is if God wants it.’ She always wanted what God wanted. We asked for the divine will of God in our lives, not the permissible will.
“Shortly before she suddenly died, the Lord came to me. It’s the only time the Lord talked to me and the devil stood there, too, tall as a man. The Lord said, ‘You will have to surrender Angel. She’s not the source of your power. I’m the source of your power.’ I saw the devil standing there, and then he vanished. ‘Lord,’ I said, ‘I never knew I put her ahead of you. I love her; you gave her to me.’ The Lord didn’t answer. He knew it would just about kill me when He took her. Twice I almost hemorrhaged to death. Had there been no medical aid to stop it, I would have bled to death. The doctor told me had I not hemorrhaged, I would have had a stroke.
“It’s awful to lose someone you love so much you feel you can’t even breathe without her,” said the preacher, reliving the experience. “I always had been full of speech, but now my speech would skip. I couldn’t believe the Lord would take the only lamb I had. Surely He wouldn’t take my Angel from me. We were serving Him. But He helped me bow to His will. He tried to make it easy for me, but how easy can He make something like that?
“She suddenly died. Now before I went out to conduct the services, I would be dying in my office praying, ‘Oh Lord, help me! I can’t go before the people crying like this!’ The Lord would take me over, tell me about the future, prophesy, tell me what He was going to do, the greatness of it all.
“When Angel died on a Monday, the Lord wasn’t speaking to me for a few days. On Thursday while I was stopping at the last light before home, I told the Lord, ‘I’m not mad at you; I don’t resent your taking Angel. She was yours. But Lord, forgive me for not talking to you. I just haven’t felt like talking to anyone.’ He didn’t say anything.
“I drifted off to sleep that night to wake up to the vision of the stars. The Lord had told me that the stars, stars everywhere represented the souls I would win for Him. But now there were blank places all over the sky where stars had been. It troubled me. ‘Lord, what is this?’ And there He was; Jesus had come. He told me the blank places represented the stars that Angel had helped me win. The Lord lingered to talk. He told me it was His divine will to take her when He did; by taking her when He did she would bring more souls into the Kingdom than had He left her with me. He said I was about to climb the highest mountain of the ministry, and she wasn’t able to do it.
“She was a great worker; in fact, the Lord raised up seven workers to take her place in the work of God. But now she was gone. The organ in our home was silent; the piano was silent. I was used to her music going forth in our home. She was so talented. Now all was quiet. I didn’t want to live; gladly I would have faced death. In that deepest valley of my life I felt I couldn’t go on living, but I knew I had to go on living for the people the Lord had brought to me.
“Like a broken record the words, Angel’s dead; Angel’s gone ran over and over in my mind. It was maddening, almost drove me out of my mind. I would go into the pulpit, Angel’s dead; Angel’s gone. I would pray for the sick, and it would be Angel’s dead; Angel’s gone. The time came when I was down on the floor in her office in our home, crying my eyes out. Either Jesus or the angel of the Lord came into the room like a human being, put his arm around me and a great peace from Heaven came on me. The broken record stopped. I cried many times after that, but it wasn’t as bad. I had to learn to live again. The Spirit of God took me over each time I came on the platform before the people.
“Angel and I had never fussed, had never gone to bed with anything in our hearts against the other. We were sweethearts the whole twenty-seven years we were married.
“The valley will never be so deep but what you can go on with the Lord. The Lord is here to dry your tears. Maybe your loved one is dying, but the Lord’s healing balm is ready to move for you. Let the Lord’s love handkerchief wipe away all your tears.
“I hope this love message will help your marriage. In her dying hour, Angel was glorious. She said, ‘Jesus is here; don’t you see Him? He’s standing right there by the table.’ Now she was talking directly to Him: ‘Jesus, let down the bridge so I can go across.’
“I knew she would go if Jesus let down the bridge, but I didn’t think the Lord was going to do it. To the very last I thought God was going to heal her; God always heard my prayers. But it was the Lord’s time to take her home, and that’s what happened; the Lord let down the bridge, and she went across.
“A short time before, we had been out, and as we were sitting in the car in the driveway, I said, ‘Angel, you have given up on life; you’re ready to go, I can tell it.’
“Well,” she replied, “The only reason I would want to stay is because of you.”
“But she said it in such a weak way I knew she was ready to go. I was bold about it then as I said, ‘Honey, if the Lord starts to take you, I won’t stand in your way.’ I had to face those words. In a few days she would be dying and I would be pacing the floor at the hospital.
“We believe in good doctors and good hospitals. Sixteen doctors were working over her. It about killed our doctor. ‘She was a queen!’ he said. When she died, he came in and blurted out, ‘She’s dead!’
“She isn’t!” I exclaimed.
“No, she is dead!” I just fell on the floor sobbing, and the doctor knew he had told me the wrong way. He and his wife were both doctors and they drove me home, a distance of about forty miles. On the way home, he talked to me like a minister. ‘Reverend Angley, you have to go on with your ministry. You have to go on. You’re called of God.’ I wasn’t really listening; I felt dead. Angel was gone. How was I going to tell our people? How could I ever say the words? I couldn’t even bear to speak it. But the Lord had let down the bridge, and she had happily gone across.
“Be kind to your mate. Have a good marriage. Don’t marry unless you know it’s God’s will. Angel and I waited for His will. You ministers know there are a lot of burdens you carry in the work of God. We shed many tears over our people, trying to help them. You don’t know how much you love that companion. I knew we had much love, but I didn’t know how great it was. I would go home, open the door and fall on the floor. But the Lord said He wouldn’t allow us to be tempted above what we are able, and I’m willing to suffer all things for His name’s sake; He’s done so much for me, so very much.”
Take the Healing Balm
“The Lord is here tonight to dry your tears. Maybe some of you have lost, or are about to lose, a loved one. Maybe that one is dying with AIDS. The Lord has sent me with the healing balm, and He can heal that loved one. It is a wonder all the Lord is doing in this hour. If you could just read the mail that comes in to this ministry, you would read testimony after testimony of people who have been healed of AIDS.
“The Lord is here; He wanted me to tell you my story, or part of it. After I got here the Lord told me what I was going to do, and I always obey Him. When I talk about Angel’s death, I cry; forgive me. I’m just as much married to Angel as I ever was. She will always be in my heart; she’s a part of me. She meant so very much to my life and she meant much to the Lord. I know the Lord was delighted in her homecoming. She’s in Heaven without a doubt, and I will meet her again one day.
“Some of you may have loved ones whom you know are in Heaven today. You can’t help but miss them. Let the Lord fill you with His love. He filled me up with so much love, unbelievable love, that I have His love to give to people.
“I never feel any greatness about me; without Him I’m nothing. I don’t have to fight being lifted up. The Lord is here; He is ready to dry your tears, ready to help you. You who are burdened down with sin, you carry the heaviest load of all. What if I had faced Angel’s death knowing she died without God; there was no hope? But I knew where she was; that made the difference. It’s wonderful to have someone say to you that the Lord has never failed you and He won’t fail you now. I can hear Angel’s voice so many times saying those encouraging words.
“I want everyone here to pray the sinners’ prayer. You who don’t need to say it, help pull down Heaven for those who do. I’m not here to accuse you; I’m here to inspire you. I will pay any price to have all of His power, His mantle to strike the waters and see them separate. I use the mantle of the Lord. I have it tonight. The Lord sent me here or I wouldn’t have come.
“You who have AIDS, you who are in a backslidden condition, you must come to God if you want to be healed. Every hand raised. You who are saved: Help me pray with the compassion of Calvary. The Lord has given me the compassion of Calvary; the compassion of Jesus led Him to die on that Cross for you. Pray the sinners’ prayer for those who need salvation. The blood delivers from all sin, all the marks of the devil, all witchcraft, all voodoo and all devil worship. It’s all gone and you can’t be in it any longer.”
Oh, God, I repent before you. I am so sorry with godly sorrow that I have hurt you. I know you wept when you were here; I know you stood before Lazarus’ tomb, and you cried. I know you were a man of many tears, and I have caused you to cry through my sinning, my disobedience. Have mercy upon me, Lord! No more sinning for me. I give my heart to you, my very soul. I will serve you, Lord, the rest of my life. I thank you, Lord, for dying for me, making it possible that I can go to Heaven one day, that all my tears will be wiped away and I will never have another tear to shed. I will never have another pain. I will be happy as the endless ages roll. I believe in the blood of Jesus and I believe the blood of Jesus washes away all my sins. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus! Precious Jesus, come on in! “If you believe that prayer, you can say, Hallelujah, Jesus is mine!”
Holy Ghost Fire Covered the Sky
“Lord, you’re here, and we’re in the cloud of your presence,” said Reverend Angley. “Now the heavens are lighting up with the fire of the Holy Ghost. The pillar of fire has come, glory be to God!” The fire of Pentecost covered the sky; the miracles were taking place and through the gift of discerning, the minister began to point out people for miracles.
A man was there whose first name started with J and his father’s name with P. His mother’s maiden name started with F. He was 27 years old, six months, one week and one day. The Lord was telling him exactly. He was now healed of AIDS. He was cured. When you go back to the doctor there will be no AIDS, saith the Lord.
The following miracles are recorded just as the Holy Spirit through the gift of discerning gave them through the man of God:
“The man over here: You’re 71 years old. You have had six deaths among your kin. They died of AIDS. You have three more who will be dead in the next three months or less, saith the Lord, unless they’re healed. You’re here believing God, treasuring those three, and your faith has drawn me to you tonight. When you go to them you will find them healed. No more AIDS, all three of them.
“The mother, you have four children; two died with AIDS. Another one is afflicted and the doctors tell you that in less than a year’s time that one will be dead. You left that one home suffering; you’re here pulling with your faith tonight. You have sanctified yourself before the Lord, beseeching Him, and He has heard your cry. That one’s healed, saith the Lord. No more AIDS.
“The person in through here: You’ve been in witchcraft all your life until last night and the devils went out of you. You can’t go back to associate with your family. You’ve got to stay away from them; they’re in witchcraft, they’ll destroy you. You have AIDS, don’t you. You’re going to die within the next ninety days if you don’t really stay away from witchcraft and really take this miracle from God. It’s yours, but you must live for the Lord. The Lord is saying to you: Go and sin no more. If you embrace witchcraft again at any time you will have sinned against God. Keep this in mind. You are healed now. Go and sin no more.
“A person over there: You have breast cancer and the doctors have said your breasts will have to be removed, both breasts. It started in the right breast, but now it’s in the left breast. You are scheduled for surgery, but I have news for you: The Lord has healed you; He’s saving your breasts. You have given your heart to God. You, too, were raised in witchcraft, but no more. You are free, and you’re determined not to turn back, and you’re going to keep your breasts. The Lord made the breast and puts great value on it.”
The Miracle Power Was Moving for AIDS
“The person way back: You’ve been an alcoholic for over thirty years. You’ve about destroyed yourself. In a drunken condition, you got AIDS. You didn’t think it would happen to you, but it did. You’ve had AIDS for three years, three months, one week and one day. Your last name begins with C. You gave your heart to God tonight. Those alcoholic devils went out of you, and now you won’t crave alcohol. Thank God Almighty! And you’re healed, saith the Lord!
“The person over here, you have a nephew and niece, and they both have AIDS. Their parents have died with AIDS, and it’s just killing you. But you’re living for God, serving Him, and they’re now healed. The Lord is drying your tears. Thank God, He’s like that. You’re coming out of that deep valley, and you’ll see them in good health, saith the Lord.
“Way back is a person: You are a drug addict. You have been a drug addict for twenty-one years. You also drink much at times, but you do more drugs. You were delivered last night from many, many devils that bound you. In fact, there were ninety-one of those devils in you, and they came out last night, saith the Lord. You gave your heart to God; you went to church today. God saw you there. You’re now healed of AIDS. You’re healed, you’re healed! You are delivered.
“In the invalid section, the AIDS victim, you’ve just been healed; it’s over and done before I come to that section. You are healed.
“Over here: You have cancer of the spine. There is no hope of your ever being well [without divine intervention]. You also have a niece with AIDS. You and the niece are now healed, saith the Lord. Both of you are healed.
“A person over there, you are very young, all of seventeen. You have lived a street life; it’s been sex, sex. You’re going to die with AIDS—or you would have—but you came tonight. You gave your heart to God awhile ago, and you meant it. Now you’re healed of AIDS. You have a chance at a new life; you had better make the most of it because if you don’t go with the Lord, if you sin willfully, you will die of AIDS within six months after that time, and in hell you will lift up your eyes, saith the Lord.
“God tells me much about people, more than I usually tell. I’m careful what I tell,” said Reverend Angley.
“The person in through here: You are a great grandmother. You’ve had much sorrow. You’ve had nine people die with AIDS who are related to you one way or another. You have two great grandchildren whom you treasure, but they have AIDS. Their parents are dead; you are their love and they are your love. When you take them back to the doctor you’ll find they are cured, no more AIDS. They’re going to live. Your love for them and God will do it. Healing balm is here tonight. That dried your tears, didn’t it?
“The person over here: You didn’t intend to get involved tonight, but you did. You’re a backslider; you’ve been a backslider for thirty-one years. You came back to God tonight and it’s a good thing because you have AIDS and you also have diabetes and you’re going blind, but no more. The Lord is giving you sight and no more diabetes, no more AIDS, saith the Lord. You have come home. Go and sin no more.
“The man over there with heart trouble: You have had three heart attacks; you’re in bad shape. You have a short while to live if you don’t take the miracle tonight, but you’ve come to the Lord. Tonight you renewed your covenant, and the Lord has re-created your heart. When you go back to the doctor, he won’t be able to tell you’ve had a heart attack.
“This is a bad one. You were going to commit suicide today; you were going to hang yourself. You had already picked out the place, and you already had the rope, but the Lord got into you. You heard a strange voice; it was the voice of the Lord, but you didn’t know what it was. That voice told you to come here tonight. You have seventeen suicide devils. You would have committed suicide but the Lord took over in a great way. Those devils went out of you tonight. It’s a good thing you were here because by tomorrow you would have been in hell. You’d have committed suicide. You’d have gone from this service and committed suicide, saith the Lord. But now you’re free, and you’re healed of AIDS. God has been good to you or you’d have been in prison and already have been put to death for your crimes. I wanted him to know who he was because he didn’t count himself worthy. He thought life was over. He was hating life, getting ready to plunge into hell, but our prayers kept him. I’ve been praying for the lost in Jamaica all hours, going to the window and holding up my hands before God. God save all the souls in Jamaica.
“The person over here, you’re just twenty-one. You’ve lived a rough life, committed crimes that would send you to prison. I’m not here to expose you; I’m here with healing balm. I thank you, Lord, for sparing this young man’s life; I thank you, Lord, for healing him of AIDS. I thank you, Lord, for delivering him, for giving him new life. Son, live it well, and you’ll be fine. One day I’ll see you in Heaven.
“This is your hour of visitation, your hour of revelation, your hour of deliverance; this is what many of you have been praying for; now it’s come; now it’s here. Accept it with all your heart.
“You who are sick in any part of your body, touch and be made well. It’s that simple. When the Lord came to me and stayed the hand of death, He healed every part of me in moments of time. He made me whole after all my suffering, after being in the valley of death. Only God knows how I suffered, and then the suffering was all over. Jesus had come with healing in His wings and made me well. I wasn’t going to die. Years have passed by since then and I still have life, life, life.”
The Spirit of the Lord said, I am here; it’s your time. The power of God was about to fall on the crowd in an amazing way. Lives would be changed, bodies healed and people filled with the Holy Ghost. “Everyone stand to your feet,” said Reverend Angley; “repeat after me: I believe in miracles because I believe in God, and I’m going to accept everything I need tonight. I’m going to accept deliverance for myself and my loved ones. I believe God. I hate death diseases. I know they come from the devil, and I know the devil hates me and my loved ones. I know the devil comes to destroy, but Jesus came and brought us life. That blood life will deliver you and yours from AIDS, the AIDS virus, from diabetes, lung trouble, heart trouble, strokes, leprosy, all manner of sicknesses and diseases. Take healing; take a miracle for the whole person and for your loved ones. Take the whole miracle! Hear the voice of the Lord saying: Be thou made whole! He made me whole and He is doing the same thing for people here tonight. Be made whole all over. Don’t think about old age; that has nothing to do with God. Believe and take on the strength of the Lord like I have. Believe for healing; God made me whole years and years ago, and it’s wonderful the health and the strength that I have.”
The Holy Ghost Fell
“The Lord is moving on me now to call the Holy Ghost down,” said the man of God. “Some of you thought you had the Holy Ghost, but the Lord let me know that you don’t have Him. Many of you don’t have the real Holy Ghost. The devil has deceived you, saith the Lord. Now you can have the real thing to never speak in tongues at will again, to never try to pray in tongues through self. You aren’t the one to pray in tongues; it’s the Holy Ghost who prays through you. The Holy Ghost prays through me; He sings through me, but I never get in a group that decides to all sing in tongues. It’s the Holy Ghost who sings or prays through you; you don’t do it whenever you want to; the Holy Ghost does it when He wants. I want no part of speaking in tongues at will; that’s not of God.
“Start praising God; He has gifted me with calling the Holy Ghost down while people are praising Him. I call the real Holy Ghost down: Receive ye the Holy Ghost!” A mighty blast of God’s power began to fall. This is that spoken by the prophet Joel: And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy: And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke (Acts 2:17-19). The great pouring out of the Holy Spirit was throughout the crowd. This is your hour of visitation, your hour of revelation, saith the Lord. “Let the Holy Ghost have His way. Praise the Holy Ghost until He takes over. It’s all in that one word: Glory! The Spirit is falling; the Lord is beginning to baptize people. He wants to come in and take over. The Lord is pouring out His Spirit. He will come in and speak in a heavenly language that will bless and edify you. Keep saying Glory until the Holy Ghost talks! The Holy Ghost is falling now; you’re in the cloud of His presence. This is the fulfillment of that prophecy, saith the Lord: Receive ye the Holy Ghost! Everyone praise God, and as you are praising Him, more and more AIDS victims are being healed, saith the Lord.”
The crowd remained standing as praises continued to ring up to Heaven. “Keep praising the Lord,” encouraged the preacher; “He hasn’t finished yet. People are being healed of all kinds of diseases, all manner of sicknesses. All the praise goes to Him. You’re in the cloud of His glory,” said the man of God, “I’m able to see it and you should be feeling it. Let the Holy Ghost come in, the real Holy Ghost with fire from On High.
“This is your hour of visitation, your hour of deliverance that many of you have been praying about. Now it’s here. Accept it with all your heart. Lift your hands and thank God for what He has done already. How wonderful it is to be free, to have blood power over the devil, blood power to cast out devils, blood power for the sick to be healed!
“Clap your hands all ye people to make a joyful noise. Heaven is listening in. The devil has to move back; he can’t stand this kind of noise!” The people clapped and continued to clap. It was a joyful, powerful blood noise. “Pick up your feet and trample the devils under in the power of the blood. The Lord said we would do it. We’re almost in Heaven tonight, almost! Jesus is soon coming and we’re getting ready to leave here. We’re getting the reality of what it means for the power of God to charge through and through you. You feel more like flying than you feel like walking.
“Let this power keep working to get you well. Through the Spirit of God this believer is laying hands on you, calling down the power of God upon you. Watch yourself get well. Millions have been healed through this Jesus ministry, millions were delivered from sin. This is what God is doing, mighty miracles of creation and re-creation. It’s wonderful to behold. I live in His presence, and I live to be used by Him to do His will.
“God, save all the souls across this isle of Jamaica. More and more will be coming to God after I leave and I’ll still be praying. Help me pray for these revival fires to keep on blazing after I’m gone. This is the real thing. People are praying and fasting for you. We pay a price to reach lost souls, but we gladly do it. We are called of God to get this message to the lost. We don’t have long. Take time with God, and with the compassion of Calvary, pray earnestly for lost souls throughout the world. It is indeed the Lord’s divine mission for us to take Jesus to the whole world in this final hour. All people must hear the great story of Jesus’ love.”
