Seventy people made a journey into God’s glory for souls, and many, many others went with us in heart and spirit. We held four crusade services in Jinja, Uganda, East Africa and four services in Kampala the capital where the tour group was scheduled to meet us. On Mother’s day, three of us left before the tour group from Pittsburg on British Airways, arriving in London very tired and weary. But during the twelve-hour layover in the hotel the airline had put us in, I was visited by God, and I wasn’t tired any more. I thought I needed to go to sleep, but I just needed God to talk to me—and talk He did. He let me get some wonderful, wonderful rest, and then we were in the air again headed for Uganda.

A country bordering Lake Victoria with lush tropical forests, tea and sugar plantations, and mountains, Uganda has been called the Pearl of Africa. Jinja is a lake fishing port situated on the northern end of the Napoleon Gulf of Lake Victoria. When we arrived, the press was waiting to interview me. Not knowing just what to expect in Jinja, we were pleased to find excitement over the crusade. I was told that never before had an international evangelist come to their city. Wonderful helpers from the area stayed with the stage and equipment day and night, and came to Kampala to take care of it again. I was overwhelmed with their loyalty and love.

One of my drivers was surprised to hear me call myself God’s boy. That’s the way I think of myself—I have ever since I started out serving God in my teens. He gives me the strength and endurance of the young.

The hotel grounds in Jinja are beautiful; I enjoyed looking out from my room and seeing scenes that reminded me of Florida. One day I heard people singing and making music. They were loud. What is going on? I didn’t learn until later that it was a crowd of people getting ready to march for the crusade. I was touched that they had gathered with such enthusiasm. It didn’t matter to them about the sun or the rain; they were going to work for the Lord.

The Jinja Ministers’ Meeting

At the preachers’ meeting the Lord gave me the message “Get Off the Boat!” It’s time to move; let’s go! The preachers were right in there with me, wanting more, more, more. God was moving, and they were drinking in every word. We had a glorious time. It’s wonderful when people hug the Word of God to their hearts, caress it in their spirits. I gave each minister there the book The Deceit of Lucifer. They were so grateful, so happy to get it.

Outside the building, the ministers’ transportation was lined up—not automobiles but bicycles. I doubt a preacher there had a car. We have much to thank God for but all too often fail to appreciate His blessings the way we should. We are blessed and don’t have sense enough to know it. We need to wake up.

Almost the Whole City Came

The people gathered at the services, rejoicing and singing. I enjoyed them very much. My interpreter followed my gestures and characteristics. If I laughed, he laughed. If I gestured, he gestured. If I shouted, “Wooooooo,” he shouted, “Wooooooo.” When I started moving across the platform, he went right with me. He was an excellent interpreter.

Someone said that on Sunday afternoon the whole city came out. I was reminded of Paul’s day when he preached in Antioch: The next sabbath day came almost the whole city together to hear the word of God (Acts 13:44). People came not only from Jinja but from other areas. I heard it said that the Sunday afternoon crowd was the greatest crowd that had ever gathered for anything in that place. People were delighted in the crusade services; many needed spiritual resurrections, and the Lord provided power for them. He poured the Word of God through me, and unbelievable miracles took place in all the services.

Test the Spirits with the Word of God

Again and again in the divine visitation from the Lord in 1954, He told me that everything must be taken to the Word of God, must be in harmony with the Word. He told me that the Word would be my safety. If I had a vision, it must be taken to the Word. If the vision stands the Word test, it’s right; if not, it’s wrong.

Being rooted and grounded in the Word is the reason this ministry, after all these years, is right down the middle of God’s great highway. No false doctrine is preached here. Churches in false doctrine are not in accord with the Word of God; churches that teach, for instance, speaking in tongues at will are in false doctrine. They give out messages from either self or the devil. In my ministry people are stopped if they get out of order. Some have come in and tried to interrupt the services with their own brand of false doctrine, and I have stopped them immediately. If something is of the devil, people need to know. The devil wants attention, but I will not let him take over my services, even for a little.

In a Holy Ghost rally the first time I was in Uganda, I told a woman she was out of order. She thought she was speaking in tongues, but it was not of God. I told her to wait on the Lord, to speak only as the Holy Ghost gave utterance. She waited and got the real Holy Ghost. If that had been some Americans, they would have been so insulted that they would have stormed out of the service.

The real Holy Ghost is allowed to manifest himself such a very little because of false doctrines. Literature and the messages of false doctrine going forth from certain television evangelists have done much damage. Those who teach people to speak in tongues at will, to gather for the purpose of singing in tongues, are in false doctrine.

The Holy Ghost sings through me, but He doesn’t sing through all the congregation at one time. One evangelist said, “We’re going to sing in tongues. Brother, come and direct us in tongues.” “Brother” got up and led the people in a session of musical babble. The “tongues” were flesh and the devil mixed in. The devil sees to it that false teachers get money to send out their false doctrine. Their literature has gone into foreign countries, and people are prophesying at will, speaking in tongues at will—hell is going to be hot for false doctrine evangelists. If you can “speak in tongues” whenever you want, it is you doing the speaking, not the Holy Ghost. Face the fact that you do not have the Holy Ghost baptism, and get down on your knees and pray until the real Holy Ghost comes in.

The Holy Ghost operates the speaking in tongues and the interpretation; when people take over for the Holy Ghost, He leaves. Those truly baptized in the Holy Ghost speak only as He gives the utterance the way those in the Upper Room did on the Day of Pentecost. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance (Acts 2:4).

God helps honest-hearted people to accept the truth; that was the way it was in Uganda when I was there the first time.

Many had been taught wrong, but last year out of all those thousands of people who were gathered in the services, 64,574 reached out for and received the true Holy Ghost.

The Glory of the Lord Appeared

In the Sunday service of this crusade came a most amazing manifestation of God’s power: Suddenly the sky turned amber, brighter than the African sun. An amber cloud hovered over us like a halo or canopy. Three rainbows appeared, one extending straight as a finger up into the fiery cloud. Two other rainbows appeared, but were not as bright. There was no storm; the sun was shining. What God has done in the past He is doing again. We saw the glory of the Lord that must have looked like the glory Ezekiel described: And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round about within it, from the appearance of his loins even upward, and from the appearance of his loins even downward, I saw as it were the appearance of fire, and it had brightness round about. As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 1:27,28). Ezekiel is describing the amber, the fire and the rainbow—manifestations of the glory of the Lord.

God wants people to know that He is Lord. That’s the reason He gave the incredible manifestation in the service. Man couldn’t make such a sight. It was God’s rainbow, God’s glory cloud, His promise straight from Heaven to us, saith the Lord, in this last hour. It wasn’t something visible to only me; everyone could see it if they looked up. For the Lord to let all see such a wonderful sight should tell us that there is no limit to what He is going to do here and abroad in this final hour.

One minister was asked if he had seen the rainbows and the amber canopy. He said he saw a rainbow, but he was so thrilled, caught up into such a heavenly place when his nine-year-old daughter, standing beside him on a chair, began to speak in tongues that he didn’t remember much else at the moment.

So many of the people in the crusade had never seen a miracle or experienced a healing, and they were receiving with open arms. God is fulfilling His promise to pour out all of His greatness in this last and final hour.

The manifestations of the Lord are exciting. As we go on into the greatness of the blood with Him, living in the power of the divine blood one hundred percent, God will be able to manifest Himself. When the devil can get people to yield to him completely, he manifests himself, but now God is manifesting Himself.

Waiting for the Voice of the Lord

Thousands received the Holy Ghost during this mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit as the three rainbows appeared and the glory of the Lord covered the place like a canopy.

One man who saw the wonderful sight said he was expecting God to speak at just any time, waiting for the voice of God to come.

Before this endtime harvest is over, many may hear the voice of God in some of these manifestations. God spoke at Sinai and people heard, and those people were not even blood-washed. They had washed their clothes, prepared in different ways to cleanse themselves and appear before God, but they didn’t have the blood of Jesus to wash them inside. When they heard the voice of God, it frightened them so much they said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak with us, lest we die (Exodus 20:19).

I want to hear the Lord speak to the people. I want the voice of God to ring forth. People need to hear His voice. In that amazing crusade service, the setting was there for God to speak. He had come down.

Over 175,000 Miracles

To be in such a place as that, one could be healed of anything as God covered the people with His glory. One hundred seventy-five thousand miracles and healings were called out by number, and there were many more that weren’t numbered. God was in action. God had the place; the devil didn’t have a chance. Angels were on guard, holding back the powers of the devil from bothering and getting the attention of the people. God certainly is moving in this last blessed hour!

Alcoholics were called to the platform. The preachers had never seen anything like what was about to happen. So much power of God came down that the alcoholics were unable to stand. One right after another they were slain in the Spirit. Some who needed deliverance didn’t come at first, but when they saw the power of God in action, they wanted in on it, too. The God of miracles lives! It was wonderful to see all those people set free from demonic powers.

God and the power in the blood that poured down delivered people from witchcraft, from devil possession. Demons fled. Some of the people were tortured, had no peace of mind until they were delivered from devil possession and washed in the blood. Then they became as pure as Heaven itself. Many devils had bound some, and those people, too, went away completely free with Jesus.

Thousands came to God, receiving salvation and the Holy Ghost baptism in Jinja. God sent me there knowing He would bring people in from everywhere. Many fine people came and were thrilled to see the manifestations of the Lord. In a short space of time the Lord rained His miracle power down from the skies; it’s the pouring out of the Holy Spirit that Joel the prophet foresaw so many years ago. But this is that which was 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 (Acts 2:16,17).

The Word of God Cuts Out Unbelief

The hotel manager at Jinja talked to Brother Manning, telling him how the place had been stirred, that there had never before been anything like it. He was amazed at what was going on, at what had happened to so many people. God raised up many, many wonderful witnesses.

The Word cuts unbelief out of people so that they will yield to the Lord. Thousands are delivered in my services from demonic power without my even touching them. God cuts doubt out of people, and demons flee before the Word of God. I preach the Word; the Word goes in and the devils go out.

It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4). If you live by the Word of God, you will be all right. The Word gives the power to fight the devil. You must have the Word and the blood of Jesus. When I tell honest-seeking people about the power in the blood, they reach out for that power, and the Lord gives it to them. He doesn’t wait and wait when people are ready to be served. Throughout the crusade services they dined on the Word of God. It was as though a huge banquet were going on and the Lord had let me be the chef. How marvelous to give the people the Word of God and to see them feasting on it!

Keep the Blood-Word Moving!

The Word of God has power over the devil. Jesus demonstrated that power when He rebuked the devil three times with the Word of God. It is written…It is written…It is written (Matthew 4:4,7,10). The devil left Jesus for a season, but he came back; and that’s the reason you must keep the Word of God moving in your heart, soul and spirit: The devil will come back to try you. Use the power of the Word of God, the blood-Word, to defeat the devil and keep him defeated.

The New Testament is the blood-Word as well as the Old Testament where the blood of animals is a type and shadow of Jesus’ blood, that wonderful, glorious, divine blood that was to come. If a type of the blood could heal and deliver from devil possession, think what power the real blood has! We have the real thing today, the blood of Jesus, and I’m determined to use it. I’m determined to stay with God, to live with God no matter what.

We are pulling Heaven down, seeing multitudes delivered and set free in every crusade service through the Word of God and the blood of Jesus. Your fastings, your prayers have helped bring this about. If you could have seen that multitude of people and the way they were yielding to God, you would have been thrilled. God shook the place, took it over as I preached the blood-Word and called upon the blood-name of the Lord.

Reach for the power and greatness in the blood of Jesus and do not allow yourself to be bound with any kind of spirits in your mind or soul. Take your stand knowing who you are and what you can be in Jesus; know the power that can be yours through the Word and the blood, and be in shape to use it.

When we are in divine shape to use the Word and the blood, no matter how many devils come against us, they can’t defeat us, saith the Lord. Decide that you are going to be in that place with the Lord every moment you have left so the divine blood, the divine love can flow through you. Then you will have nothing to worry about when the devil comes against you. You will be ready for him just like Jesus was ready for him.

The Bride is going to be just like Jesus. Never fear the powers of the devil or let people worry you to death. Don’t allow confusion to be your companion. Your privilege is to be free, to have joy unspeakable full of glory.

Thus Saith the Lord

Yea, saith the Lord: I am looking upon you. I am looking upon you with eyes of love, and I am offering you everything. I’m offering you my great power, and if you will use it, you will defeat the devil every hour. The powers of darkness will come, but you don’t have to be afraid. The Lord thy God will be your shield. He will be your High Tower, saith the Lord, and you will see and know the enemy of your God and your enemy. And you will know where you stand, that you stand in my truth, that you stand in my divine blood and you will know that you have the strength of the Almighty God that made you, saith the Lord. Fear will not be your companion, but my Holy Spirit will be your companion. My Holy Spirit will direct you into all of my wonderful truth, into all of my wonderful love, into all of my wonderful faith, into all of my wonderful grace. My people are to be a free people, and my people called by my name will be free in this last hour, or they will not be ready for the great hour that is ahead, saith the Lord.

On to Kampala

We closed out in Jinja Sunday night and headed for Kampala, the capital of Uganda, on Monday. Kampala is one of the most beautiful places I have been in. The hotel is in a dream setting. From the hill the hotel was located on, I could see across the distance to the crusade grounds. All around the field were flags each with a message such as “Only believe,” and “Hallelujah forever,” and “You are special to God,” and “This is my day, Jesus.” It was exciting to see the people gathering for the services and to hear them singing. They love to sing. In both Jinja and Kampala I taught them the song we learned in Nigeria: “Jesus is a Wonder!” They put in their own ooh’s at the appropriate places. I prayed that God would give us souls, souls, souls.

Tour Group Ambassadors of the Gospel

On Tuesday, two days ahead of the rest of the group, the first wave of tour group members arrived—ten in all. We had sent them ahead because not enough seats were available for everyone at the same time on British Airways. At 11:30 a.m. they deplaned at Entebbe and then were bussed to Kampala, about a forty-five minute drive through beautiful green countryside. They passed the field of our last crusade services where, some years ago, so many Christians had been murdered in Amin’s regime. One woman, seeing vultures in that area now, thought it was somehow fitting for them to be there.

Arriving in Kampala, the group went to work right away giving out literature and inviting people to come to the services. Before the first service was held, some of the tour group went downtown to the jail and delivered books and magazines for the prisoners. The prison staff saw what they were doing and asked for books and magazines, too. Everyone was working, working.

The Power of God Rained Down

Wednesday was the preachers’ meeting. We were unable to hold the meeting in the auditorium of the hotel like we had last year, but the management let us have the patio of one of the smaller buildings on the hotel grounds. A crowd of people had gathered by the time I arrived—maybe a thousand ministers—and as they sat, the rain began to pour. It can rain suddenly in Uganda just like it does in Florida, seemingly out of a blue sky. I was prepared to remain outside in the rain if the people looked as though they would stay, but they jumped up and started moving inside, crowding together like sardines. God had a hand in it; He wanted us in close quarters, and He really moved in.

What a wonderful meeting we had! The power of God came down. I don’t believe the meeting would have been quite as good out in the open. I talked about untying God’s hands, and a prophecy came telling the people to untie God’s hands so that they would be blessed. At the close I gave each one of the ministers the book Untying God’s Hands. It was wonderful to see the people devouring the books God has helped me to write, feasting, dining on them. Handing out the books of faith and grace was like handing out pure gold. They are hungry to learn more about the Lord.

Last year at the ministers’ meeting in Kampala, the Spirit of the Lord cried out thirty-two times, Repent! This year, from that large crowd of ministers, I saw two who were not where they should have been with God when they came. But as the meeting closed, one was face down on the floor crying out to God for mercy, and the Lord had hold of the other one and was shaking him, too. God was moving! A great change in the ministry had taken place in a year’s time. You can’t be a shepherd to God’s people unless you are close to the Big Shepherd Jesus.

We Had the “Real Thing”

The rest of the tour group arrived Thursday, the afternoon before the first service in Kampala. They were met at the airport by a local television camera crew who had been waiting for them about two hours. During that time, some of the early tour group answered many questions about the ministry and gave the interviewer literature, including the book Untying God’s Hands. The newsman said that never before had so many people arrived in Kampala at one time.

One of the welcoming-committee members introduced some of the tour group to a woman pastor whose husband had died of AIDS. She also had been infected, and the Lord had healed her. Another pastor came from over 125 miles away in a taxi to be in the crusade.

A young Ugandan lady commented, “There have been other evangelists here before, and they didn’t have it. But you people have the real thing.” She was excited over what God was doing.

The personal work of the tour group has never been greater than it was in Kampala. The tour members went into the office buildings, into the streets, to the police station, the jail, the hotel. One of the men who operated the hotel elevators said, “You people are different. All of you are just different.” He could see people set apart from the world by the love of God. Our people showed much love in dealing with others, and I was very proud of them.

Follow the Cloud

The huge crowd in that first service heard the sermon “Follow the Cloud.” For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys (Exodus 40:38). I told the people that the cloud had stopped over Kampala for them, that God had opened His arms and was pouring love to the people. The interpreter shouted when I shouted, and the crowd shouted as well. It thrilled the tour group to hear such whole-hearted responses.

Individuals were pointed out for heart trouble, back conditions. The Lord would take me over, point people out for a miracle for AIDS, telling them exactly the month, the week, the day when they first acquired that awful disease. This happened in every service. Again and again the Lord would take me over: Seven over here are being healed of AIDS. In through there is a person who has been afflicted with AIDS for three years and four months. Another person has had AIDS for two years, two weeks and two days. God did this on purpose; it sent their faith heaven high. They found God was so concerned about them that He even kept record of how long they had their disease, numbering from the time when they first got it. It’s wonderful to realize God is so mindful of us! Through Calvary, Jesus has provided healing for soul, mind and body.

People were pointed out for stomach trouble, arthritis, and when five more people were healed of AIDS, a cloud of glory appeared over the people and turned into the shape of the cross, and then there were more AIDS miracles.

One right after another, people were receiving their miracles for diseases and afflictions.

Testimonies Were Given

The second crusade service began on Friday with testimonies. A lady stepped up onto the platform to tell that last year when she came to the crusade her legs were to be amputated, but she received salvation and was healed. Also, after she testified, I prayed for her back and God gave her an instant miracle. A man from Kenya said he prayed using a blest cloth for a woman who had been barren, and she conceived.

Coming to the crusade last year very ill from food poisoning, a man told how he had received his miracle when God moved for a mass miracle for stomach conditions.

A man who had been writing to the ministry for quite some time came over 200 miles to be in the service. He told how the Bible and other literature we had sent are such a blessing to so many in his area. He had been hospitalized for three weeks when his wife picked up the mail that contained a blest cloth. She brought it to the hospital, gave it to him and he was healed.

One lady was watching the Ernest Angley Hour on television on Christmas Day. She was scheduled for a third surgery on her reproductive organs December 29. At first she didn’t believe she could be healed, but after seeing a miracle on television, she knelt and prayed as I prayed for others. She was healed and no longer needed the surgery.

I preached that night on “The Message from the Burning Bush.” Pentecost is our burning bush today, and it takes the fire of the Holy Ghost to set people aflame for the Lord. I said I thought I could preach all night without taking a drink of water. God was pouring His Word through me.

More Deliverances

For the most part in the crusade services, people sat on the ground during the sermon. Then the pointing out for miracles through the gift of discerning of spirits began.

A man was pointed out who had had asthma for twenty-one years. The light of God moved to different areas as the pointing out continued.

Five people were healed who had been afflicted with internal complications for more than five years—three of them had been to the doctor, and two had undergone operations.

Seventeen people with tortured minds were set free. Nineteen people who had suffered with stomach problems for at least three years—one for seventeen years and another for twenty-five—were pointed out for healing.

A person whose spine was injured at birth received a miracle of re-creation.

A twenty-seven-year-old man who had AIDS for only three months and a youngster, as well, were healed of AIDS.

Another person who had AIDS for five years and only a short time to live was healed.

Now four more people were pointed out to be healed of AIDS.

The light of God moved to another area, and fourteen people there were healed of AIDS.

Seeing the Lord moving so wonderfully, people felt their faith rise for greater and greater miracles in their own lives without being pointed out for their particular affliction.

People came to the platform who didn’t have a sense of smell and immediately they turned to the congregation and testified that they were healed. God moved in a mighty way.

I Accuse Christianity

Saturday night in the third service of the Kampala crusade, I preached on “I Accuse Christianity.” And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book (Revelation 22:19). Christians have failed God by endorsing and teaching false doctrine.

A prophecy came forth telling people they had heard God’s Holy Word and seen how He delivered thousands of them through His divine power and through His blood.

Incredible Deliverances

The power of God was amazing, setting the alcoholics and drug addicts free that Saturday evening. There were several AIDS miracles once again as the Lord numbered the length of time people had been afflicted. One lady had it four years, three months and two days; another person had it two years, five months and seven days.

As the faith of the people rose higher and higher, more people were pointed out for AIDS miracles—three here, four there and then eight more, and then a mother with a baby that had AIDS. Five more and then ten, and so on.

That night the Lord numbered 1,474 stomach miracles; 3,744 back miracles; 500 internal miracles; 1,363 nervous disorders; 5,643 tortured minds were delivered; 7,543 with weakness in the body; 21,343 healed of arthritis, poor circulation or a blood condition.

Then a most fantastic miracle took place. The tour members had been bringing many into the crusades from off the streets or wherever they went. One member met a deaf boy who never in his life had uttered a sound. I prayed for him; when he got his hearing, he was beside himself with delight. I tried to get him to say a word, and no sound came out. The Lord let me know that he didn’t have vocal organs or a voice box, and then came a miracle of creation. The Lord created his vocal organs. He started using his brand-new voice like someone taking another language. I couldn’t get his attention to teach him words—he was too excited over the sound of his voice. He would make sounds and laugh and laugh. The people loved it. Then, pointing to his ears, he would look at the man who had invited him to the service. His smile was wonderful. He would “talk” some more, sounds coming as though he were having a conversation. I have never seen anything just like it. His sister who was with him said he had never before made a sound. Now he didn’t want to stop making sounds. He had seen people move their lips when they talked, and he was moving his and hearing the sound; he probably thought that was talking. He had his own language. As a special love gift all because of Calvary, the Lord handed him his miracle in a moment’s time; and there he was experiencing this marvelous gift.

Just one miracle can change a life. That boy entered a life that he never had before. This is the way the Lord is going to do so much to restore and give, saith the Lord, in this last hour. This is what will bring so many people to God, the great miracles and healings.

God Promised a Special Anointing

On Sunday morning the tour group members visited twenty-seven different churches that had invited them to come and speak. They went two by two for the most part, ready to preach, pray or die. Everyone has a story to tell.

In the last crusade service that evening, I had planned to have a Holy Ghost rally—64,574 had been baptized in the Holy Ghost last year—but the Lord visited with me and let me know there wasn’t to be a Holy Ghost rally; He would give a special anointing to the people.

I preached on “The More Perfect Way.” But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way. Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing (I Corinthians 12:31; 13:1,2). We are nothing without love. The way you love others is the way you love Jesus. In prophecy the Lord said that if you abide in His love, you will be in His Heaven. He loves you, but you must love others. God sent all His love when He sent His Son, and if you reject Him, God has no more love to give you.

The cross formed as I prayed. More AIDS cases were numbered—seventeen, nineteen, thirty-nine, 135 and 517. Through tongues and interpretation the Lord said He was healing people of AIDS because of His divine blood; and His divine blood, thus saith the Lord, is destroying AIDS. I saw the light of the cross reaching all the way to the sky and then saw it coming down to the people. Going into the thousands, a mass miracle for AIDS took place as the hallelujah’s and praises rolled forth over and over again.

Three hundred forty-four young people were called by God to preach. Again mass miracles began to take place: 25,471 were healed of eye trouble; 31,819 were healed of an internal condition; 27,414 were healed of a blood condition; 15,641 were healed of chest trouble. Twenty-nine thousand four hundred ninety-one miracles were given for battles of the mind—almost 30,000 people pointed out at one time for battles of the mind. What a sweep that was, what a victory for man and God over the devil! Nineteen thousand, five hundred eighteen were numbered for leg or hip miracles. Miracles of all kinds were taking place. And then came that special endtime anointing that the Lord had told me would come: 41,573 were given a mighty anointing to pray, fast and live in the Word of God. Along with this anointing was offered the Holy Ghost baptism. There were over 200,000 total miracles in addition to the miracles that were not numbered. This was a wonderful anointing that fell! I could see the glory of the Lord.

Even more miracles and healings took place as people came to the platform. I had made the sermon that night shorter so that I could pray for more people—there were so many who needed special attention—and they were healed one after another. To see the people reaching to God and crying out to Him was wonderful; thousands were saved in just one crusade.

God tells me what He wants, and I do it, so very grateful for the way He leads me. It has been a fantastic journey into the glory of God, the greatest journey since the divine visitation of the Lord in 1954 when God walked and talked with me so many days and nights that I lost count of them. God has been talking to me in an unbelievable way. It’s wonderful. This is our hour of greatness, our hour of the revelation of the blood and what it will do when people use it in faith believing. I want to teach people everywhere, to give the books on the blood that will make multitudes of hearts rejoice. I believe the hour will come when we will be able to send forth millions and millions of pieces of literature. We must. We have the truth and we must get it to the people, saith the Lord. We’re moving more and more into the all-out greatness of God, winning the lost at any cost.

I look forward to the day we can have our own schools and teach people in their own countries. We have great things ahead of us. Anytime the Lord wants me, I’m ready no matter what.

Be Purged through the Blood

The devil is always ready to try to turn your mind from God, to defeat you if he can. God means business in this hour. Multitudes, multitudes, multitudes must be won. God has helped you when no one else could or would; now He needs you to surrender all to Him and help bring in the harvest. Let the Lord purge you of anything that hinders you in your prayer life, in your fasting life, in your Bible study and in your tithing and giving of your finances. Let Him purge you of anything that hinders you with people, that gets your attention off God and winning the lost at any cost. Purge me, Lord, from everything that would hinder. Purge me, Lord, from everything that is of self. Purge me through your blood.

If you have failed the Lord anytime in the past, don’t let it hinder you. Paul said, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:13,14). Now you must press toward that glorious prize of winning the lost at any cost so you can present yourself to the Lord, victorious through the blood. Tell the Lord you are His, delighted to help Him reap the mighty harvest of souls in this last and final hour as we journey ever deeper into the glory of God.
