Prayer isn’t just saying words, prayer is talking to God on a direct line. How wonderful it is to be able to use such a line daily! You can call Heaven any time.

I remember in one country during a ministers’ meeting with hundreds and hundreds of ministers present I said, “I have the number for Heaven.” I didn’t know they would take me literally, but the ministers got out their pencils and paper ready to write the number down. They were going to get Heaven’s number, and they were excited, so sincere about it. “The number is J-E-S-U-S,” I said, and they started smiling, realizing now what I was getting at. All you have to do is say the name Jesus through divine blood and you have the Lord on the line at once. Isn’t that wonderful!

Prayer Is a Privilege

Prayer is a great privilege, not something forced on you. You can talk to God or not talk to God. You can talk to Heaven or just talk to Earth. You can call up Heaven or not call up Heaven; it’s up to you. But what great opportunities you have when you’re connected with Heaven! I-Am is your great I-Am today. Love and trust Him. He will move for you who are living for Him, serving Him. Wonderful are the miracles and healings you can have from Heaven!

God Heals AIDS

Are you ill, suffering, afflicted? It doesn’t matter what medical science has said about your case. Medical science has the cure for some things, not everything. AIDS is a prime example of a disease man can’t cure but God can. AIDS is opening doors for us all over the world because so many thousands have been healed of it through this Jesus ministry. Mail comes in from the nations with testimonies of former AIDS victims who have been back to their doctors and the doctors are astounded, no more AIDS, no more HIV; it’s a wonder to behold! People know being cured of AIDS has to be by the hand of God. Through the blood of Jesus there is a cure.

The Lord told me to put that disease under the blood. He taught me to tell the people to reach into their bosom, pull out the AIDS by faith and with an act of faith put the AIDS under the blood. If they will believe and serve the Lord, the AIDS will die then and there. It’s marvelous to see so many thousands doing that, so many thousands of lives changed in the African nations.

I remember one country where the cemeteries were filled and people were using a great field to bury those who had died of AIDS. The next year when we went back we found that fewer people were being buried; God had healed many. Isn’t God good!

God Can Do Anything

Does God answer prayer today? Is God on the throne? Can God do anything? We believe He can and we believe in letting Him do it. Earnest Bible praying makes wonderful changes in lives, great fellowship with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Ghost, fellowship of power, love, peace and greatness. Mighty peace comes when you pray through divine blood. Always Jesus prayed through divine blood. He said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me. And I knew that thou hearest me always (John 11:41,42).

Noah prayed and God gave him plans for an ark.

Joseph started out as a slave, but he prayed and the Lord raised him up to be second in power in the land of Egypt.

God can deliver you from the slavery of sin. Many are in bondage to Satan today, but through blood prayer they can come in contact with Heaven and be set free.

Moses prayed and the plagues fell. He prayed again and the waters of the Red Sea separated to the left and to the right, making a great dry highway right through the sea. And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the LORD caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided. And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left (Exodus 14:21,22).

The Power of Prayer Has Not Diminished

If you want to know what prayer will do, go to the Word of God and find out what it has done in the past. Prayer is just as powerful today as it ever has been in the past because God has not changed. God is still on the throne. Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me (Jeremiah 32:27)? Nothing is too hard for God.

Cancer melts before the presence of God through prayer. The Bible tells us in James’ writing that the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him (James 5:15). Signs and wonders take place through prayer.

Talk to God from Your Heart

Don’t read a prayer; talk to God from your heart. Did you ever think of reading a request to your parents? They would have thought something was wrong in your head. I wanted to talk to my parents from my heart, and that’s the way they liked it. I talk to the Lord from my heart as well; I tell Him how I feel, how I believe in Him, what I’m expecting Him to do, that I’m waiting in prayer.

Elijah prayed and that prayer shut the heavens for three-and-a-half years. Then he prayed and it rained. Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit (James 5:17,18).

Answers to prayer from Heaven are not accidents at any time; God is moving on the throne, including man in His plans. I like that. When you earnestly talk to God in righteousness and holiness, He includes you in His plans always. If you aren’t getting any prayers answered there’s something wrong, but the problem isn’t in Heaven. Every time I check, Heaven is fine; it’s down here we have problems. Don’t look around and ask God what’s wrong, check inside to see how many wires are down. When everything on the inside is right, you’ll find the Lord will hear your prayer. God answers prayer.

Elijah Mocked the Priests of Baal

Trying to reach their idol gods, the Baal priests had cut themselves, cried, screamed and prayed. Elijah just stood there and mocked them: Cry aloud: for he is a god; either he is talking, or he is pursuing, or he is in a journey, or peradventure he sleepeth, and must be awaked. And they cried aloud, and cut themselves after their manner with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded (I Kings 18:27-29). Then Elijah built an altar, made a trench around it, laid wood on the altar and put the sacrifice on top. Next he had four barrels of water poured on the sacrifice and on the wood. Do it a second time, he said. Then, Do it a third time. The water thoroughly drenched the sacrifice and the wood and ran down to fill the trenches. He prayed a little prayer and the fire of God fell from Heaven. And it came to pass at the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou art God in Israel, and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word. Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God (I Kings 18:36-39).

Miracles of Creation and Re-Creation

Miracles and healings are in the fire of the Spirit. When the fire fell at Pentecost, miracles and healings were in abundance. Today, representing Jesus Christ with the fire of God burning on the altars of our souls, we’re on our way with this great message to the ends of the earth; we pray and the fire of the Holy Ghost falls.

Jesus is the healer. The gifts of healing and the gift of miracles in my life are from Him; I give Him all the praise, honor and glory for what He does. I cannot operate the gifts; the Holy Spirit in my life operates them and the blind receive their sight, the deaf hear, the dumb talk and people are healed of all manner of sicknesses and diseases. Little children born deformed are made well. The Lord gives children born with just part of a brain a whole brain. One little boy drowned and was under the water twenty minutes; there was no doubt that he was dead. But I prayed for him and his brain came to normal, as normal as it had ever been. The God of miracles lives!

You may have a part of your body that no longer functions, but God can re-create it. I prayed for one man: Doctors at a noted clinic said he had use of only half his heart. I prayed for him; he went back to the doctors and they found his whole heart was functioning. They didn’t know what to make of it.

I prayed for a woman whose lung had been removed. She went back to the doctor and he was shocked. The lung he had taken out had been replaced.

There’s nothing God can’t do; He has all power. Don’t have only talking faith, have faith in action, working faith. God will do what He said He would do. Get ready for action, get ready for God to confirm His Word like He did in the beginning of the Church.

God Confirmed His Word

The Early Church Christians preached the Word and the Lord confirmed it. How? With signs, wonders, miracles and healings. Oh, yes, the God of miracles lives!

When Jesus was here on Earth He taught the disciples to talk to the Father the way He talked to the Father, and He always got results. He taught them to pray, Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:9-10). Jesus let the disciples know that they could contact Heaven any time.

And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear (Isaiah 65:24). Do you get discouraged in prayer? If so, you aren’t praying through the divine blood. Praying through the divine blood is praying through divine faith and love. The Lord promised to hear you when you pray in divine faith believing. Never have a doubt that He hears your prayers, make no room for doubt. Divine faith is what you need.

Jesus said, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you (John 16:23). Then Jesus told the disciples, If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you (John 15:7). My Word and my promises, Jesus was saying, must abide in you; then you can ask what you will and it shall be done.

Boldly Do the Will of God

Some of you are afraid to pray for much because you can’t believe God will grant it. If you won’t ask for much and won’t believe for much, you’re not going to receive much. If you did receive, you’d probably doubt it after you got it. Prayer doesn’t work through doubt. It’s time to believe the Word and act on it. But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves (James 1:22).

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need (Hebrews 4:16). The throne of grace is within your reach right now; you don’t have to wait. Born again, you have the great favor of God, and it’s time now to believe Him. I believe in miracles because I believe in God.

God Gives Faith

Some people have to see before they will believe, and even then it’s doubtful that they will believe. The Psalmist said he believed to see—that’s the kind of faith God gives us. I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).

Faith is a gift from God: God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith (Romans 12:3). Do you use the faith that God has given you or do you use human faith? Divine faith is the one that works.

The Bible tells us in Psalm 37:4, Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Tell Him your desires when you’re praying, and the Holy Spirit—if you have Him in your life—will help you to pray in the divine will of God.

He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him (Psalm 91:15). Isn’t that an excellent promise! When you read something in the Bible, believe it, accept it just as though you could hear the audible voice of God saying it; it’s the same thing. The Bible is God speaking, God’s thoughts for us, and He is giving us much to think about in this final hour.

Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not (Jeremiah 33:3). Call in faith, not in doubt. God doesn’t work with doubt, doesn’t touch doubt; He has nothing to do with doubt. To God, doubt is like a foreign language would be to you and me.

Get rid of doubt. If you aren’t actually sure you believe enough and you need results at once, pray, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief! You acknowledge the fact that you do believe by asking the Lord to take any stain of doubt out of you. God has made receiving answered prayer wonderful for us.

Fervent Prayer Availeth Much

The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous (Proverbs 15:29). You must live holy. Many people say they can’t live free from sin. No? That means the devil is their companion. The truly born-again live free from sin. One time a beautiful angel lived in the righteousness and holiness of God, but when he failed and sin entered, the Lord cast him out of Heaven along with all the angels who followed him. Doesn’t that tell you something of how much God hates sin? There’s no sin in Heaven.

The Bible says that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much (James 5:16). If you can’t be righteous, why did the Lord tell you that a righteous person’s prayers availeth much? And why did Jesus tell people to sin no more after He healed them? Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee (John 5:14). Jesus said not to expect to keep your miracle if you continue to sin.

And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight (First John 3:22). That says it all. The reason we receive from the Lord is that we keep His commandments, His love commandments that Jesus brought.

Do those things that are pleasing in the sight of the Lord. But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him (Hebrews 11:6).

Signs Follow Believers

Why should you doubt Him? The Lord said a believer would lay hands on you, and the Lord would get you well. And these signs shall follow them that believe…they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover (Mark 16:17,18). Believe that, accept it. When I lay hands on people I believe the Lord will get them well; He will heal them. I don’t consider the kind of sickness, disease or deformity a person has; I consider God. The Lord anoints me again and again to look inside bodies, see the disease, and then see the miracle taking place.

Through the gift of discerning, the identity of a disease will come out in the voice of a person. Many times when a person speaks I know what’s wrong with that one. The Lord has a way of letting me look right inside a soul and then giving me a sign to show me whether or not all is right with God in that soul. I don’t always tell the person what I see; it all depends on whether I think that person is ready to accept learning that he or she is not saved. Some people claim to be saved when all is so very dark within.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you (Matthew 7:7). Isn’t that simple? Why should you go away sick and afflicted when you have all these promises from God? These are just a few of God’s wonderful promises that demonstrate the greatness of Bible prayer, the power of it.

When you pray, believe the Lord hears every word you speak; don’t doubt. He promised to hear and He hears, for God has spoken and He cannot lie.

Have the faith of the woman with the issue of blood who said, If I may touch but his clothes, I shall be whole. And straightway the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague (Mark 5:28,29). She released her faith and it happened; she got results.

Will Thou Be Made Whole?

The Lord is within your reach. Your miracle is already on the Lord’s table and the Spirit of the Lord is crying in a loud voice to you: Come and dine! Don’t let the enemy’s voice of doubt crowd out God’s voice of faith. Come and dine with the Lord; come to His table today. You can come with cancer, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and go away free from disease. In my crusade services overseas, untold thousands have turned away from witchcraft, voodooism and all the other darknesses of the devil because they see the hand of God, the real God of love moving for them. I preach them the truth. Jesus said, Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (John 8:32). And you can be free not only from sin, but from sickness as well; I’m a living witness to that.

Don’t believe for the Lord to heal you of just one thing. Jesus said to people when He walked among men, Wilt thou be made whole (John 5:6)? You can be made well, made whole all over.

At twenty-three I watched my body go down to about a skeleton and thought for sure I didn’t have more than a few days to live. Then one night during that dark time, Jesus came and made me whole all over. He lingered to talk with me.

“Later,” He said, “you’ll go on a long fast. When you come out of that fast, you’ll have my power for the healing of the people.”

I didn’t wait to see if I would get well; I knew I was going to live, that I would be all right. Some time afterward, the Lord reminded me that He had made me whole all over. It’s hard to tell how many afflictions and diseases the Lord healed me of that night. I had suffered deaths; I couldn’t live and couldn’t die—what an awful condition to be in! What I went through is one reason I have so much compassion for the sick and suffering; my heart bleeds for them.

I cry to God for the unhealed: They can be made well. Maybe you have loved ones who are not in their right mind. The Lord can deliver them, make them normal. I prayed for a woman who had cancer; when she was brought into the service, she had no mind left at all. But God restored her mind that night and miraculously cured her of cancer. The God of miracles lives!

I know in whom I have believed, and when I commit you into His hands—if you will yield to Him, yield to His power, love and grace—He will get you well for His honor and glory. I never take any of the honor and glory; He gets it all.

Salvation and Healing Prayer

Sinner, come to Jesus. He calleth for you. Maybe you’ve whispered a prayer and didn’t get an answer, but don’t doubt that the Lord loves you. He wants your heart; healing begins on the inside.

Sinner, Backslider, pray this prayer: Oh, God, save my soul. I’m so sorry that I sinned against you, but I have come home and I’m going to serve you, Lord, the rest of my life. I believe the precious blood of Jesus, the all-powerful blood, washes away all of my sins. Come into my heart, Jesus! Come on in, Jesus!

If you believed that prayer, the blood of Jesus has washed all your sins away. That same powerful blood will take all the sicknesses and diseases out of your body, bring healing for soul, mind and body—the whole Christ for the whole person. Remember, Jesus said that physical healing is the children’s bread.

You who are afflicted, maybe you’re dying with AIDS, you must live for God. Make that promise, mean it, and He’ll heal you, get you well. This has happened many thousands of times. That little one who is dying, or maybe you have more than one dying in your home, faith in God will heal them. Teach them the ways of the Lord. As they grow up, always tell them the Lord healed them; Jesus, the Son of God did it, the Savior of the world.

Lord, here they are. I bring those with leprosy, cancer, heart trouble, TB, HIV/AIDS to you, Lord, cursing all of those diseases. They come from the devil, not from our Lord. In the blood name of Jesus I come with your supernatural gifts. Heal! in the name of Jesus. Heal! in the holy, blood name of Jesus. Heal! Heal! I pray. Amen and amen.

Watch yourself and your little ones get well. Give the Lord all the praise, look to Him, and write and tell us about it. If you’re healed of AIDS, we’ll not give your name. I find in traveling in other countries that people are afraid they will lose their jobs if they are known to have AIDS, that others will not believe they are healed and will be afraid of them. We don’t want that to happen, so we will keep your name confidential and only tell where you are from, and the Lord will get all of the glory. The power of prayer is great. God answers prayer. Nothing is too hard for God, only believe and receive.
