Waypoint Conference 2021 (Sunday PM) - Pastor Dale Everett & Dr. Yan Venter (September 19, 2021) | Life Bible Church

We're not going to go into much introduction,

but it's an honor to have both Dr. Jan Venter

here that's to my left and to your right, and

on the front row, Evangelist Pastor Dale Everett

here with us this weekend. It's been a great

weekend. Both of them are going to share tonight

on healing. I want you to open your heart, open

your heart and receive tonight. Come on, I know

what it's like. I was born on Wednesday and in

church on a Sunday. It's been 50 years of being,

52 years of being in the house of God. I've been

born again since I was 10. I've heard hundreds

and hundreds of sermons. We need to open our

heart. For those of you that have any type of

Christian religious background, you're the hardest

group. That's right, preacher. Come on, somebody.

Come on. You're the hardest group. Remove the

excuses. Remove the judgment. Open your heart.

And let's receive the word of the Lord because

it comes to bring life and healing. Let's welcome

Dr. Venter as he comes. Thank you so much. I'm

still on. Yeah, I am still on. You can bring

up my sound a little bit on my monitors, if you

don't mind, please. You know, when you read the

Bible, you find out that a strange thing takes

place in the biblical time, just like today.

And that is that multitudes of people were there

only out of curiosity. Only a few people. had

the intention of getting to the master, getting

to the inner circle. I mean, if you just think

of when the temple was filled with people, so

much so that there was no room for any one extra.

They had to break through the tiles of the house.

Bible says the power of God was there to heal

them, but they just sat there and questioned.

See, that's religion. See, the same thing, you

know, with the multitude, multitude thronging

Jesus. And when that woman with the issue of

blood pushed through, she had the intention.

Everybody say intention. See, you've got to come

to church with an intention. You know, your intention

is what is going to drive you through. Because,

you know, there's a lot of things you're going

to come drive through when you want to receive

a touch from God. Because one of the most natural

things that most people have is a fear of man.

You know, most people don't want to come stand

up front here to speak because they're afraid

of man. It's not like they're afraid, but it's

just they hold back. So many that don't want

to be made a fool of. That's one of the things.

The second thing is, you know, when you've come

to church a long time, you've seen it all. Come

on, can I hear an amen? You've seen it all. You've

seen people fake. You've seen people do things,

you know, that you don't. really know if it was

real. You've seen people just, you know, quake

and shake and, you know, all sorts of stuff like

that. And now it's affecting you. And you're

missing out just because you remember those and

you hold back because you don't want to be like

that. Hey, listen, you are not like that. Come

on, look at somebody and say, I'm not like that.

So when you come tonight, you know, you've got

to come with an intention to receive. We're going

to have an anointing service tonight, and we

do this around the world. And we see the most

incredible miracles. We see people come out of

wheelchairs. We see people receive their sight.

You know, it's just amazing. Pastor Dale, and

I think, were you with me also when we did one

of those in Africa? You know, it's the only difference

between Africa and here, they're not afraid of

getting wet with oil. Over here, we've got to

use drabs, you know, just a small little bit.

But, you know, I'm not going to. I'm going to

just absolutely just mess you up here tonight.

No, I won't really, but, you know, we really

want you to receive from God. Now, when you form

the lines here tonight, and later on, Pastor

will come and explain how he wants it done. When

you form the line, I want you to come with an

intention to receive from God. And, you know,

take your Bibles, if you will, and just go to

Hebrews 2, and I want to just read you something.

Pastor Dale was, Hebrews 3, he was briefly referring

to the rest of God. And I don't want to teach

on the rest of God. I really rather want to teach

on the word enter. Enter. See, that's one of

the things, you know, in the tabernacle of the

Old Testament. All the artifacts in there were

shadows of things to come. And there was a door

into every, there was three sections in the tabernacle.

Each one had a door. And to get to the next level

and the next level, to get to the first level,

first thing you had to do is enter. And then

when you wanted to go to the next one, you had

to enter again. And when a high priest wanted

to go into the holy of holies, he had to enter

again. Enter. Say it with me. Enter. You've got

to want to enter, you know. Stop remembering

what John Doe did when you thought he was faking

stuff. You are not here tonight to fake stuff.

We're going to speak about the anointing, and

then you're going to come forward, and you're

going to come with the intention of receiving

an anointing, an anointing of healing or breaking

a yoke of bondage, whatever it is for, but you

are going to receive something. from God in this

service tonight. Give him a hand clap of praise,

will you? Can I get some water, please, some

water? Now, Hebrews 3, Paul is teaching, and

he says in verse 7, therefore now, just to give

you a little brief, you know, introduction to

our scripture reading, he was, thank you so much,

honey. You know, by the way, just stand here

if you don't mind. Just turn around, let them

just see. You know, this is my wife, Hanley.

Come on, make her feel welcome, will you? She's

really a jewel. You know, I asked her, you want

to say something tonight? And she said, definitely

not. But I think she should just greet you. Go

ahead and just greet them a little. I was just

thinking tonight. What a wonderful church this

is. And you all let us feel so welcome. And I

really appreciate that. It's wonderful to be

here. And just glory to God. Amen. Amen. Thank

you. That's great, baby. Thank you. You know,

the thing is. You know, years ago, let me just

back up a little bit. Years ago, I was doing

a conference, and it was like a town hall meeting

the second to the last night. And they would

ask me questions, and I'd have to answer. And

my wife then, Basie, was with me. And so one

of the questions they asked her, and this was

on world television. You know, this was in Bob.

Bob Rogers' church, and one of the questions

that was asked, does Jan make you happy? And

I just knew, you know, she's going to just let

the world know what a great man I am and, you

know, how wonderful I was. And then her answer

came like that, and she said, no. I turned to

her and I said in my own language, you know,

I said, honey, you're on world TV. You know,

what are you talking about? You know, change

your answer. But then she said, if I had to depend

on Jan to make me happy, it'll never happen because

he's so busy. God makes me happy. Come on, give

God a praise offering. And that's Hanley. That's

Hanley. Now, he was talking about, Paul was teaching

actually about the things that happened in the

Old Testament. When Moses was leading a rebellious

group of people that saw miracle after miracle,

supernatural stuff, things that you have never

seen. I mean, you know, the sea parting, you

know, mountains quaking, water coming out of

a rock, you know, just bread falling every morning

upon the people, feeding three million and more

people. You know, it's just miraculous stuff.

And yet they did not draw nigh unto God. What

can I get? What is the next thing that I can

receive? And now that's why Paul was teaching

on this. And here in verse 7 of chapter 3, he

says, therefore, as the Holy Spirit says today,

if you will hear his voice, don't harden your

heart. Verse 10, and therefore, God says, I was

angry with that generation and said, they always

go astray in their hearts. And they have not

known my ways. So I swore in my wrath, they shall

not enter. There's that word. They shall not

enter my rest. And then a little bit further

down, he's talking in chapter 4. And he says,

therefore, since a promise remains of entering,

there's a promise that is open still tonight

for you to enter. You have to enter into his

presence. He says, therefore, since the promise

remains of entering his rest, let us fear. Or

another word, a better translation, I think,

should have possibly been, let us become highly

concerned. You know, have sleepless nights. Go

home tonight and have a sleepless night because

you did not, you seem to come short of it. Short

of what? Of entering. You're in the service here

tonight. And the enemy for some reason. Or your

own person. For some reason will hang back. And

you're just one of those that wants to just hear.

You just want to see another miracle. Hey listen.

God wants to do something here for each and every

person. And you have to come with intention of

receiving from God. Go ahead and give him another

praise. offering, will you? Glory to God. Now,

you know, the anointing, the anointing is an

incredible thing. You know, when you accept Christ

as your Lord and Savior, a couple of things happen

right away. First thing that happens is he gives

you the gift of believing. Faith is not something

you generate. Faith is not something you buy.

Faith is not something you earn. The moment you

receive Christ, salvation is the first thing

you receive. And then secondly, you receive faith.

He's given to every man a measure of faith. And

then the third thing is the anointing. John writes

in 1 John 2, you have an anointing. It's already

in you. All that has to happen is you have to

allow it to manifest. You have to allow it to

come to the front. You have an anointing. Come

on, look at somebody and say, you have an anointing.

Now, come on, just look at somebody the other

way and say, I have an anointing. Powerful stuff.

You know, let me tell you something. You know,

it's not just goosebumps. The anointing, let

me tell you about the anointing. The anointing

breaks yokes of bondage. With other words, you'll

possibly see tonight when we lay hands on people,

and if there's deliverance needed, deliverance

is going to take place. That heavy yoke that

you've been carrying on your shoulders is going

to be broken tonight. That cancer spirit that

you have been dragging with you for so long,

its neck is going to be broken here tonight because

that's what the anointing does. Yeah, go ahead

and just praise him. Glory to God. Oh, come on.

Give him some more. Just give the Lord a hand.

But you have to come with the intention. It's

amazing, you know, Pastor Dale was talking about

it this morning. I thought maybe it's just in

my ministry that you see it, but he demonstrated

it very well. When you lay hands on some people,

they come and stand like this. And when you lay

your hand on them, it feels like you're laying

your hand on a piece of furniture. See, the anointing

is transferable also. See, the anointing, I mean,

you can draw the anointing. You know, both of

us, I say it not with pride, I'm saying it with

thankfulness. Both of us, including your pastor,

we carry a heavy anointing. Come on, I can tell

you right now, we carry a heavy anointing. And

you can draw on that tonight. You know, when

that woman with issue of blood touched Jesus,

he said, I felt virtue go out of me. And when

you come here tonight to receive from God, you

know, absolutely open your heart. And, you know,

if you've seen people fake falling before, well,

so be it. You've seen people, you know, that's

fake running or jumping before. So be it. That's

not you. And if you come here tonight and you

say to yourself, I'm coming with an intention

to receive whatever God, you know, I struggled

for so long to receive the baptism in the Holy

Spirit as a young man. I mean, I got saved when

I was 12 and when I'm 21, not for lack of trying,

I just couldn't get it. You know, I have an analytical

mind. You know, that's just the way my mind works.

And, you know, I couldn't figure this out much

until I got sick and tired of not having it.

And I can clearly remember the 3rd of September

of that year when I was 21. On a Saturday night,

I was walking around, you know, around and around

a big old willow tree outside at night. And I

was saying to God, Tomorrow morning, Lord, I'm

going to church with the intention of receiving

the baptism in the Holy Spirit. I am going to

speak in tongues tomorrow morning. You promised

it, and because you promised it, I claim it,

and I claim it even right now. And then I said,

Lord, no matter what the preacher says to invite

people forward, I'm going to run forward. And

it just so happened it was one of the deadest

services I've been in a long time. And the pastor,

it was also a communion service. And then he

used the word, will the ushers please come? That

was my word. That was the word I was looking

for. I just come. I ran forward and stood in

front of him. I think I shocked the daylights

out of him, you know, because he looked at me

and he was confused. He said, yes. And I said,

yes. And when he laid his hands on me, that's

the last I remember. I woke up much later with

my head under the communion table. And what had

happened, let me tell you, not only did I receive

the baptism in the Holy Spirit, but revival broke

out in that little church. You know, I'm telling

you, come on, give him a handcup of praise. Glory

to God. And I've seen it over and over. I've

seen it over and over and with him also. And

I'm saying this once again in humbleness. I am

revival. Because that's my anointing. And when

you come forward here tonight, there's no telling

what's going to happen because we are revival.

That's the anointing we carry. We are healing.

That's what God gave us. When you come here within

the circle of our presence, wherever we are,

you are going to receive whatever your intention

is to receive. Give him one more hand clap of

praise. Glory to God. Oh! You know, I said to

Pastor Dale here before the service, do you feel

it also? He said, man, I'm telling you, I feel

it all around me here, you know, the anointing.

I know many of you could feel it tonight. The

worship service was just incredible. Come on,

give them a good hand clap. That was just incredible.

It really was. But it doesn't stop there. It's

now going to go, and you got to come, when you

come forward for a touch, you come with the intention

of entering. And if you do end up on the floor,

hey, listen, that's normally, I've seen, we've

seen people, you know, receive a touch from God

and went into a trance for the entire night until

the next morning. You know, don't receive a touch

from God and then just, you know, jump up, stay

there for a while. It's God's operating table.

God is going to do some stuff for you. You know,

the Bible says that in 1 John 2 and 27, As for

you, the anointing which you receive from him

abides in you, and you have no need for anyone

to teach you. But as his anointing teaches you

about all things, and it's true and it's not

a lie, and just as it has taught you, you abide

in him. The anointing brings revelation. When

you operate in that anointing, you open up the

Bible, it's amazing how those words will suddenly

just jump up at you. And you find out, my goodness,

I never saw this before. I already told you it's

going to break the yoke of bondage. And I want

to give you two more. Psalms 45 says that you

have loved righteousness and hated wickedness.

Therefore, Your God has anointed you with the

oil of joy and gladness. Don't be surprised tonight

when you come here for a touch of God that you're

going to break out with laughter and joy and

happiness. And you'll go home and people won't

know what happened to you. You can just say,

hey, I've been in the presence of God because

in his presence there is fullness of joy. Go

ahead and praise him. Glory to God. Then James

5. I'm going to end with this one. James chapter

James 5 · chapter mention

5. The anointing also brings healing. He said,

you know, somebody's sick. Bring them. Bring

them to the elders. Let them anoint them with

oil. And the prayer of faith will raise up the

sick. The anointing can and will also bring the

healing that you have. Need of people here tonight.

I know there's people here. You came because

there's some stuff going on and God alone can

break it. So I want you and I, before I, before

I end, I just, you know, there's so much more

I want to say, but I just want you to say to

yourself, tonight is my night. Come and look

at somebody right now and say, tonight is my

night. Now, you know, when you come for the touch

from God, I want you to understand this is not

a doctrinal thing. Isn't that right, Brother

Dale? It's not a doctrinal thing. Come and talk

to him about this. Give him a handclap of praise

when he comes. Just make him feel welcome. Always,

always excellent, Jan. Always. Wow. Praise God.

You know, I've just got to say I love Jan Venter.

He is a super guy. A real man of God. A real

man of God. And before I carry on also in respect

to the anointing, may I say how much I have appreciated

The way that you in this church have taken this

time of ministry seriously. You guys have prayed.

You've been your seed. You've given. You have

worked at every level, not just on the stage.

Our stage folks have done a bang -up job, have

they not? Just absolutely amazing, the folks.

But these guys back in the sound and video area,

we've not one night had to turn around and look

at them. You have gone unnoticed, and that was

a good thing. But I've noticed. Thank you so

much for what you have done. Really. Our ushers,

greeters, those that have served in other capacities

have done so well. And while we give all the

glory to Jesus, We also recognize that it is

the gift of God that is in your pastor and his

wife that have... See, they don't just have an

anointing to preach. Go ahead. Yeah. Yeah. They

don't just have an anointing to preach, they

have an anointing to lead. And this scripture

has already been read or quoted tonight that

God has given, and he listed within that five

-fold ministry, that their purpose wasn't entirely

to do, but to equip. And you have been well equipped,

and you are yet being equipped. Therefore, you're

going to hear the well done. Well done. I talked

to my wife today and I told her, I said, this

really is an extraordinary church and the way

that you guys are impacting this community and

this area and the world with the gift of God

that is in you. it really at every and i went

through it with her at every level the way that

you guys do what you do with excellence but also

with the power of the holy spirit so the evidence

of anointing has been before you not just with

incoming guests but you dwell with that and that's

something that uh the passage that jan has already

quoted and by the way he didn't leave anything

for me to say so i'm going to reiterate what

he said but but the passage in first john 2 27

says the anointing you've received of him abides

in you you have an abiding anointing here not

a come and go thing it's an abiding anointing

you know when when we lay our hands on you and

minister his anointing tonight, you want to look

for something that you're going to keep. This

is not a Sunday night experience. This is something

that you will carry home with you. And let me

tell you what I think. I think it can rub off

on the generations that follow you too. Amen.

That kind of anointing. You know, Jesus said

in Luke 4 and verse 18, it was the mission statement

of his ministry, right? As he was opening his

first message, if you were to say, to preach

as a man on the earth. And he said, the spirit

of the Lord is upon me. Because, now listen to

this, the spirit of the Lord is upon me. Because

there's a reason why the Spirit is upon you.

Do you get this? There's purpose in it. There's

a reason for it. You must understand that. He's

upon us because he has anointed me to. And that's

as far as I'm gonna go in the quotation of that

verse. I realize most guys take now the next

few lines and they beat on that, which is really

good, you know, and they expand on that. And

I would like to do that too, but that's not what

I wanna do tonight. I just want you to see something

that the spirit of the Lord is upon you and he's

anointed you too. It's a purpose. There's a purpose

in the anointing. Now, we do feel the anointing,

but that's not why it's there. But I like that.

I do, you know, someone says, well, we don't

go by feelings. Great, but don't try to take

mine away from me. Come on, I enjoy feeling his

presence. I enjoy feeling the flow of his spirit,

the activity of the Holy Ghost. There's nothing,

there's really nothing special about being numb.

But it's, it's not about. The feeling. It's about

purpose. So he's anointed us to. There's an anointing

on you. To do something. To be effective. To

be fruitful. To be able to stand against the

stream. There's an anointing on you for that.

You want to embrace that. That purpose. That

empowerment. We lay our hands on you tonight.

We're believing God for an anointing. Wow. The

anointing heals. James 5 passage that Jan was

quoting there. And I like the way James says

it. He starts out by saying, is there any sick

among you? Wow. I long for the day that I can

be in a church. Where you actually question whether

anybody could be sick in this group. Think about

that. I mean, that was his top question. You

think there's anybody around here sick? I don't

know. My mentor used to say he held on. and the

crusade I was in with him, I think I told you

this morning, went 17 weeks. And he was really

kind of being humorous when he would say this,

not being cocky, but he would say this, by the

time this crusade is over, you're either going

to be healed or ashamed to say you're sick. But

James, he's asking the question. Is there any

sick among you? And then he gives them the directive.

Let him call on the elders of the church. Let

them pray over him. Anointing him with oil. Someone

say anointing him with oil. In the name of the

Lord. And the prayer of faith shall save the

sick. I like that. And the Lord shall raise him.

You see how positive he is? They shall save the

sick. And the Lord shall raise him up. And look

at this. And if he's committed sins. He's all

washed up. No, he said, they'll be forgiven him.

If no one else is going to dance about that,

I'm going to. All alone. Come on. Even sin can't

stop the anointing. Are you hearing that? Come

on. Now, we understand he's talking about the

one who's being forgiven of their sin. So there

is the repentant attitude. But don't say, don't

even think, oh, because I've sinned. And you've

repented a thousand times for the same sin. It's

because of your unbelief. Oh, don't look at me

in that tone of voice. Why do we live with such

a sin consciousness when we need to live with

a righteousness consciousness? You've repented

of your sin, then believe it. He's cleansed you

and forgiven you. And don't you let there be

a stop on your anointing because of your past.

But it heals the sick. You know the difference

between the sick being prayed for and being healed

is anointing. That's it. And coming, as Brother

Jan so adequately said, to enter into and to

draw on that anointing. I'm looking for people.

Do you get healed tonight? Not to just rub oil

on them and pray for them so they walk out greasy

and prayed for. You know, I was in a crusade

years ago in Illinois, and it was the third week

of the meeting, and the lady had, this was her

first night out. So many of her friends had been

out, and they had been healed, and they'd been

on her case to come on out, but she hadn't come.

Finally, she came, and I was walking up the aisle,

the center aisle, to get to the stage, and when

she called out to me, and I paused for a moment,

and she said to me, I've come tonight because

I've got this, this, this, this. And she told

me all the stuff that she had wrong with her,

that she needed to be healed of. And bless her

darling heart, it would have been easier to tell

me what she didn't have than what she did have.

She had a grocery of this stuff. And then she

said, she went on to say, and I want you to know,

I've had Oral Roberts pray with me and Kenneth

Hagin has prayed with me. And she went through

all the biggies, you know. And then she said,

do you think that I should have you pray for

me tonight? And her friends were so excited.

And I looked right in her eyes and said, no,

I don't think so. And she was so surprised. And

I says, why? I says, because it looks to me like

that you're coming everywhere just to be prayed

for. Why don't you come and get healed tonight?

And I wasn't trying to be cocky or mean. I mean,

that comes natural to me because I was born in

New York. But I was trying to catch her attention

that the issue for her had been just to go let

people. You know, do the little sympathetic thing

instead of going for a change. The anointing

will heal you tonight. Come on. Now, I like the

Isaiah passage, Isaiah 10 and verse 27, and I

read just one part of it. And I like the way

it's rendered here. It says, and the yoke shall

be, but look at this word. The yoke shall be

destroyed. Because of the anointing. Now, I've

got some wonderful grandchildren, five of them.

And occasionally, quite often, in fact, my wife

and I, when we get with them, we'll bring a little

something. And sometimes... one of them will

come or I will come back and see them and either

their mother or my wife might be present and

say, oh, you know, the thing that you got for

whichever one it was, that's, you know, they,

you know, they're very upset because they broke

it. Now, if they say they broke it, here's what

I do. I say, well, let me see it. Because I know

that when something is broken, sometimes I can

fix it. But if they say to me, you know, that

thing that you got, like my grandson Max, you

know, the thing you got from Max, he destroyed

it. Well, that's it. I don't even want to see

it anymore because there's no hope there. Let

me tell you about the anointing. It destroys.

I was in the Baltimore area in a crusade. My

father -in -law was with me. At that time, he

was in his mid -later 70s. And I noticed when

I looked out into the crowd the opening Sunday

morning, and it was a large place, and it was

jammed. But over to this side, and they were

all, this was, like I say, at least 10 years

ago, and they were all very, let's say the house

had a lot of suits in it. All right? They were

very proper. I came out on the stage. All the

leadership came up behind me. They all sat in

seats out there. They had it. They got it together.

If you couldn't be stiff there, you couldn't

be stiff. But I looked over to the side and I

saw three rows of emo kids. Boy, did they ever

stand out. Now, if you don't know what emo kids

are, you know what gothics are, these guys take

it to another level. So I looked over there and

I saw all those emo kids and I thought, wow,

that's quite a sight to see. And my heart goes

out to kids for a wide variety of reasons. And

one of them is because the gift of God came into

my life as a child. You've heard me just make

quick statements about my... my experience with

christ and and it began early at seven years

of age in fact in fact the uh the the bulk uh

really the the seed of what was going to happen

in my life my destiny came to me before i hit

my teenage years and by this time i was early

into my teenage years i was already traveling

this nation preaching this gospel so when i i

see kids i look at them and i say people say

they're the next generation i say they're the

now generation you need to step up to the plate

right now Right now, I mean, get with it. Good

night. You know, I mean, here's how I really

feel about it. You know, if you're young enough,

you know, to know that you're alive, get with

the program. Why are we waiting for some other

day to come? And for all the rest of us that

are a little older, you know, if you're old enough

to know you're still alive, then get with the

program. I mean, anyhow. So my heart goes out

to them for that reason. So I walked down to

where the emo kids were, and I started telling

them about my call and early in life, my encounter

with Christ, how he changed me. They were very

early. And then I picked out one of the young

men, and I... I brought him right across to the

front, you know. And he had those red skater

jeans on that made these things look like they're

baggy, you know what I'm talking about. And he

had the little gold chain with it and the whatever

hair and such, you know. And I linked arms with

him like that real close. And I said to him,

I said, you've got to help me out, man. Now,

I was wearing jeans. I was wearing Jesus. So

what? Well, that's back when they were wearing

suits. I mean, when I came out, I told you my

father -in -law was with me. He was in his 70s,

about 78 at the time. And he said to me that

when I walked out on the stage, he said there

was an older couple in front of me. And I'm thinking,

you're 78. How old were they that you're calling

them an older couple? I mean, these guys. Wow,

anyhow. But he said there was an older couple

sitting in front of him. And he says, and when

I walked out on the stage with the jeans on,

the woman turned to her husband and said, will

you look at him? He's got dungarees on. Now you

understand that no one under 40 laughs because

they have no idea what I'm talking about. They're

thinking it's something you get from the app

store. But anyhow. Anyhow, I held that kid close,

and I says, look, I says, you've got to help

me out. I said, my God, look around here. Look

around. All these people with these jackets and

ties on. Me and you, we're the only one with

jeans. You've got to help me out. You can't leave

me here alone all week long. You know, everybody

roared and laughed, but it really knit me together

with those emo kids. When I went back to the

hotel that afternoon with my father -in -law,

I said, if you notice, the kids, especially the

girls, you see they all wear very long sleeves.

I said, that's not because they're being conservative.

That's because a lot of them are cutters. And

their arms are marked with scars. That night,

God delivered all of those emo kids. Monday night.

Monday night there were 20 of them on their back

speaking with other tongues. When we came the

Wednesday night we had some testimonies and one

of the girls came but she just had one of those

little tops that just has a crop right over the

shoulder like that. She was the first one up

to testify. And she told how that God met her

on Sunday and changed her heart and filled her

with the Holy Ghost on Monday and she held her

arms out like this. And I'm standing right next

to her when she testified and this is the honest

to God truth. If I put two fingers together,

there was no place I could have put them on her

arms if there wasn't the marks and the scars

from the cutting. And she said, this may look

awful to you right now, but he delivered me from

this on Sunday. But she said, And she said, furthermore,

they've already faded 50%. Yeah, that's what

she said. And guess what? They've kept in contact

with me. You say, well, they still live in Baltimore?

No, no, they went off to Maine to a Bible school.

And now they're pastors, pastors' wives, and

they're in the ministry of the Lord. Understand

why? Because... This anointing destroys, it literally

destroys the yoke of bondage. Let me just point

out this one last thing and then let's do it,

let's do it. I won't even read the passage, but

you'll find in the passage of Leviticus 21. like

between verses 10 and 13, that we discover another

wonderful thing about the anointing is that it

consecrates. Now, consecrate, that's quite a

word, isn't it? I mean, when was the last time

that you were checking out at the tractor store

and asked somebody, so what have you been doing

this week? And they said, oh, well, we've been

consecrating. I mean, that's just not really

a term we hear too often in our society. But

the consecrate, and boy, that's a whole thought

and message within itself. But can I simplify

it and just say it this way? The consecrate means

to mark as holy. Now, we're going to put some

oil on you tonight. I'm going to be very discreet.

Jan's going to baptize you. Oh no, did I? No,

he's not. That was wrong. Here's the deal. We're

going to put some oil on you tonight. And when

we take that oil and I'm going to wipe it like

right here on your forehead. If someone was to

look at you as you walk away. And maybe they

even got distracted and didn't actually see you

when I touched you, and now they see you heading

down the aisle to go, and they might think, oh,

did he get anointed? They're going to look up

and go, oh, there it is. Yeah, you bet. Yeah,

he did. You're going to see that oil there. But

you're going to go back and wipe that oil off,

I understand. But, you know, there's nothing,

and I was telling my son this the other day.

I said, there's nothing that we do in the natural.

as a result or under a command of the Lord or

directive of Scripture that is only symbolic.

Did you hear what I just said? There's nothing

that we do in the natural that is only symbolic

if it is something that is directed of the Spirit

and of the Scripture. At the same time, there's

something happening in the Spirit realm. When

I put this hand on the sick to be healed, people

say, well, that's just symbolic. Well, it is

symbolic, but it's not just symbolic. There's

another hand. Did you hear me? There's another

hand that goes right there at that same time.

And I believe when I put this oil of God upon

you, there's going to be someone else that's

going to be putting some oil on you. While you

may wipe this one off, you won't wipe that off.

And when you step out of this room, there are

going to be those who will see that mark. Do

you understand what I said? You walk into that

hospital room and those afflicting spirits who

have been diseasing that individual. are there

in that room, the minute you walk in, they're

going to look up and they're going to see that

mark of consecration. And they're going to say,

oh, this is going to be a bad day for us. But

listen, there are some others in that room too.

It's those angels that were sent to attend to

that one. and when you walk in that room they're

going to look right up and they go that's what

we were looking for we've got cooperation here

the mark is upon them i'm not talking crazy talk

to you i'm talking real speech they'll see it

They'll know it. Let me tell you something. People

are all worried about the devil's here, the devil's

there. Let me tell you something. When you walk

out of here with the anointing of God and you

go back into that place of business, home or

wherever it is where the enemy has been so active,

the minute you walk in with that mark of his

consecration and his empowerment, you're going

to give the devil hives. Amen. Amen. So as you

come tonight, I want you to come in faith. I

want you to come with expectation. I want you

to come with a heart open. I want you to come

with a sense of the Spirit. Don't be standing

in line with your cell phone checking your Instagram.

Why don't you come praying in the Spirit with

a heart open to what God is doing. Expect something

great. And you know what you're going to get?

You're going to get more. I can promise you this.

Whatever you think you got, I don't care if you

feel like you went into the third heavens when

we anoint you and heard the very choir of God.

I can promise you this. You're going to find

out in the days to come you got a lot more than

that. I've never, never in my life have I ever

fully appreciated or properly appraised any work

of God that came to me. I always have. And let

me tell you, I'm not alone with this, baby. I

always underestimate what he has done. He's always

doing more. Exceedingly, abundantly. Above all

that you can ask or think. Whatever you think

you got tonight, I can promise you, it was more.

was more. Now, I'm going to tell you, on the

other hand, if when we lay our hands on you and

anoint you, you don't feel like you got squat.

You say, I don't know what I got. I slapped oil

in my face. That was nice. I can tell you what,

you got more. There have been times when men

have laid hands on me and I've hit the floor

and been out for a long time, got up, only to

know that he did way more in me than what I understood

in that moment. And there have been other times

that people have laid hands on me and I thought,

well, I really appreciate it. It was very kind

of you. Thank you so much for doing it. And then

turn around and realize, wow, did I get more.

I have done some of the African -American conference,

prophetic conferences up in the codas. And I

remember one time I was up there and the lady

prophet that I've known for quite so many years

was to pray with me because up at that point

I had gone years and years and years without

being able to recall a dream. And I said, I know

one of the main languages of the spirit of dreams

and visions, but I know I dream, otherwise you

go out of your mind. I said, but I don't ever

remember. I can't tell you in 10 years I'm remembering

even a pizza dream. I was a holy ghost woman.

And she said, well, at the right time I'll lay

hands on you. She said, I had the same thing.

And I got prayed for and it opened right up to

me. So at one point in the conference, she just

said, this is it, come on up, come on up. And

I went up and she laid hands on me and I really

respect her, but I gotta tell you, I didn't in

a sense feel anything at all, but I was appreciative.

I mean, you know, and she prayed for me. I thought,

thank you very much. And then I turned around

to walk back to my seat and I was drunk. Do you

hear what I just said? Did you know what I just

said? I was drunk. I barely made it back to my

seat and I was shocked. I was as shocked as I

was drunk. I didn't know what happened. And boy,

it opened up just like that to me. I remember

dreams every night. I'm just going to tell you,

look for more. When we touch you, when you walk

out of this room, whatever you believe you got,

look for more. Expect more. There's going to

be exceedingly abundantly stuff going on. interested
