Summary

Summary prepared by Acts 2:38 Life from the transcript below — the preacher’s words follow in full.

Introduced — and where the devil is not

  • The cut opens on the host introducing the preacher (the host segment stands inside the span; see packet.md). The panel's first line is a garbled fragment of that introduction and stands as captioned, unrepaired (see packet.md); the welcome is intelligible at 0:08: "from Raleigh, North Carolina — he needs no introduction; he's a revivalist… Wayne Huntley, would you welcome him."
  • Huntley takes the floor praising God for what has already happened in the house: "I don't know that I've ever been in a more life-changing environment and atmosphere than was present in this house today. There was indeed more than the anointed, preached Word of God here — there was a deep spirit of prophecy that hung over this sanctuary." He thanks God for all who preceded him and gives honor to "brother Randy keys, who will follow me tonight" (the surname is captioned "keys" here and "Keyes" at 2:09; both forms stand — see packet.md), and to "brother Anthony Mangan" (name as captioned; see packet.md), "whose dream and burden has brought this meaning to us for such a long term number of years" — if you have been here at all through the course of time, "your church is better for it, and our vision is clearer, and our goals are loftier, and our passion is greater."
  • "What a joy it is to be in such a highly ignitable, excitable revival climate. I don't know where the devil is tonight, but I know where he's not." He calls for the Bibles to open to the book of Matthew, chapter 15.

The text read aloud: the woman of Canaan

  • He gives honor to the district and national officials on the platform — "brother Kenny, the local district superintendent" among them — and, time not allowing all he feels to say, hastens to the word of the Lord: "Matthew chapter 15 and verse number 21 — Matthew chapter 15 and verse number 21."
  • Before reading, he remembers a dear deceased minister friend, a mentor from Louisiana who opened doors for him as a young evangelist and used to say there are two types of preachers: helicopter preachers, who can go straight up, and 747 preachers — himself — who need a long runway to get up. "What I'd like to do tonight, with your assistance, is let's do some helicopter preaching now; let's just go straight up. So we'll dive right in to the word of the Lord."
  • He reads the passage aloud, in order, from verse 21: Jesus departed into the coasts of Tyre and Sidon; the woman of Canaan cried, "Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a devil"; he answered her not a word; the disciples besought him to send her away; he answered that he was not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel (the caption here reads "the house of his," a garble inside the reading, left standing — see packet.md); she came and worshipped him: "Lord, help me"; he answered that it is not meet to take the children's bread and cast it to dogs — "verse 27" — and she said, "Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their master's table." Then Jesus answered: "O woman, great is thy faith; be it unto thee even as thou wilt" — "and her daughter was made whole from that very hour." (The shipped form of this reference — the start verse named, the end carried by the reading's extent — is ruled at packet.md Flag 6.)
  • He announces his subject: "I want to preach tonight on this subject: you can't fake it — you must faith it." (In the same breath he also voices the form "you can't fake it, you must face it," and he alternates the two verbs all sermon long; the settled title follows the announcement's first form and the upload — see packet.md Flag 1.)

Scriptures: Matthew 15:21-28

The target: fight for your faith

  • For clarity of ministry, he sets the target of the message up front: "I would like to squelch a growing groundswell of negativism, cynicism, criticism, skepticism, and doubt. There is nothing more dangerous, devastating, and deadly to an apostolic ministry than doubt and unbelief." That is why the scripture tells us to contend for the faith: "faith is something sometimes you have to fight for" — "we're to contend for the fight for the faith," "to fight the good fight of faith" (the wording is voiced without a citation — see packet.md). "If you came to this meeting discouraged, you need to roll your sleeves up and get in the battle and start fighting for your faith. Everything we get from God comes through the avenue of faith."
  • "The scripture says in Hebrews 11 it's by faith, in faith, and through faith: Hebrews 11:34 said that women received their dead raised to life." One of the great needs of this miracle moment at 2001 Because of the Times is a resurrection — "a resurrection of your dreams, a resurrection of your hopes, a resurrection of your passion, a resurrection of your vision, a resurrection of your ambition. There's too many preachers just going through the activity; it's time to believe God."
  • He presses the same chapter's wording further — "without faith it is impossible… without faith it is impossible to please God" — pausing inside the verse to say it does not matter what you want or desire: "all of it is impossible without faith." (The wording is the verse-6 text of the chapter he has just named, but no verse number is ever spoken for it; the index ships only the verse he names — see packet.md Flag 7.) The gentleman who was preaching when Huntley received the baptism of the Holy Ghost — "brother dole spears" (name as captioned; the form differs from the "Doll Spears" of the 1995 packet and the two are not settled as the same man — see packet.md) — was dating his bride-to-be in those days, and used those very words on her: "it just so happened that her name was Faith" — "without faith it is impossible to please God." (Huntley says he checked the story with a son this afternoon to make sure.)
  • "It's debatable if there is anybody that out-believes us. It's one thing to work hard, but it's something else to believe that something's going to happen as a result of your endeavors. It's time to start believing it's going to work."
  • Faith's significance shows in its loss: "the Bible said in First Timothy 1:19 that some have put away faith and a good conscience, and they have ended up in shipwreck." That, he suggests, is behind ministers defaulting into fleshly sins. "There is nothing more dangerous than a living preacher with a dead dream." Wives should worry when a husband begins to lose the focus of his dream: "it's our dream that keeps us going to that pulpit; it's our dream that keeps us in the prayer room; it's our dream that keeps us on fire for God."

Scriptures: Hebrews 11:34; 1 Timothy 1:19

Great faith: not ready for the sun to set

  • "Great faith is more than pretty popper praises; it's more than catchy cliches; it's more than simply name it and claim it, or blab it and grab it. There is more to faith than that." He tells of Joshua watching the sun go down with the battle unfinished (the narrative is told, never cited — see packet.md): Joshua had not had all his enemy, was not satisfied yet — "I asked you tonight: are you ready for the sun to set, or do you want a little more revival? I want a few more folks in our church; I need to baptize a few more people; I need to see a few more miracles. I'm not ready for the sun to set yet." In that moment of unfulfilled passion Joshua spoke — a first sermon, never to be repeated — in the sight of all Israel: "Sun, stand still," and there has never been a day before or after that God listened to the voice of a man. Anybody with eighth-grade science knows Joshua did not get it right — the earth moves around the sun — "but God said, that's alright, I know what you mean. You don't have to get it just right; just be desperate."
  • "The scripture says: with God nothing shall be impossible." (The wording is expounded at length here, but its book is never named — see packet.md.) He got the thought from "brother tinnie" (name as captioned; see packet.md), preaching the anniversary services for "brother David Hennigan" (as captioned), with Huntley and his wife Patsy (captioned also "Pat") sitting on the front row: brother tinnie read the verse, and Huntley elbowed Patsy — she gets sore ribs and bursted eardrums beside him in church, and asked him to do that a little softer — "I hope he's not gonna preach on that." He had always restricted the verse to himself: with God, no *thing* is impossible, however absurd or far-out it appears. "But I saw something in that verse I've never seen: with God, *nothing* is impossible. There is an impossibility with God — it's nothing. You can't have God and come up with nothing. You may not get everything, but you're going to get something, because nothing is not a possibility with God. You can't pray and come up with nothing; you can't worship and come up with nothing; you can't have a Bible and come up with nothing; you can't love God and come up with nothing. That's impossible."

One more time: the nets

  • He went home and preached this truth — "nothing is impossible" — and it is why, when Jesus walked up to the shore where the ships were docked and the fishermen were cleaning their nets and asked if they had any meat, and then told them to cast the net on the right side (the fishing narrative is told at length, never cited — see packet.md; on the word "nets" in this passage see packet.md Flag 12), the answer came back: "Lord, we have told all night and taking nothing" (as captioned, "we have talent, we have told all night"). "Nothing is impossible — you got to do it one more time. I said, you gotta do it one more time, because nothing is that impossibility with God."
  • Notice: they dropped *a* net. The reason Jesus said *nets* is that he is Almighty God — he could see what was above the water and what was under it, and he knew there was more than one net-load of fish under that water. "But you see, sometimes fishermen lose their direction, and they get more excited about cleaning nets than they do fishing. I'm convinced that one of our maladies is we give too much time for cleaning that and not enough time division. We're not here to show off our sparkling lips — the master is looking for me."
  • He has always bragged on Simon, but pulls him back a little tonight: how much of his harvest did Simon lose by reluctant obedience? All his nets were clean; to fish them again meant dirtying them. "What he was saying is, I'll do what you asked me to do, but I'm only going to risk one net — and because of that, his net began to break. Let me tell you, church: we need to get ready for a net-breaking, ship-sinking, Holy Ghost revival."
  • He voices the prophet's servant story (told, never cited — the passage is the most garbled in this stretch of the captions; see packet.md): the prophet prayed, the servant said, "I don't see anything" — "that can't be so, because with God nothing is impossible. You better look again; there's something there. You better go back home and take another look: there's revival in your church, there's a miracle in your church, there's power in your church, because with God nothing is impossible."

Outside the covenants — and faking her way in

  • He means no disrespect to his Master, but Jesus' conduct with this little woman was a bit unseemly: he ignored her, he insulted her, he injuriously excluded her. Why was she treated in that measure? "The Bible said she was a woman of cana, which meant she was outside the pavilion of promises, which meant she was not covered in the canopy of covenants, which meant she felt very disadvantaged, very distanced, and very much disqualified — because Romans 9 and 4 says that to the Jews are every advantage: they have the adoption, they have the glory, they have the covenants, they are the giving of the law, they are the service of God, they have the promises, whose are the fathers, to whom Christ came. And she knew that none of that included her." He preaches tonight to people who feel the same — disadvantaged, distanced, disqualified, with no rhyme or reason for anticipation.
  • The danger in feeling that way is making her mistake: "when she came on the scene, she said, 'O Jesus, O Lord, thou son of David, have mercy on me.' She threw out every orthodox, highly ecclesiastical theological term that she could use. My opinion is, she was trying to fool him. My opinion is, she was trying to fake her way to a miracle. And when you fake it, you will get ignored; and when you fake it, you will get your feelings hurt; and when you fake it, you won't make it. She tried to camouflage herself so that she could think something to stand on to get what she wanted from God."
  • "Methods do matter." She had a real need, but her method turned him off. Ask Moses if methods count: told to deliver Israel, his first move was his own method — killing an Egyptian. God told him to smite the rock one time for its water and to speak to it the next; he did the same thing that worked last time, because he was hung up on his methods. "Methods do matter with God — but you cannot fake it. You have got to faith it" (he also voices the charge as "face it"; see Flag 1).
  • "I am seeing, and feel very much concerned, that there are too many young preachers trying to fake it." A haircut to match a famous TV evangelist won't bring revival; hairdos, gestures and mannerisms, voice inflections and verbiage, "learning all the right things to say" — none of it will bring revival. Ask the seven sons of Sceva (captioned "Siva"; the story is told, its book never named — see packet.md): they adjured the devil by "Jesus whom Paul preaches," and the devil said these are fakes. What struck Huntley afresh in the scripture is that they were the sons of a chief priest (captioned "cheap priest"): "they knew what to say, they knew how to say it — they had the line, but they didn't have the life. And if you fake it, you'll end up losing your shirt."
  • "The Spirit is calling us back to reality. It's time to be real men of God; it's time to be real apostolic preachers; it's time to really love Acts 2:38" (the reference is named as a shorthand label for the message, never read or expounded — excluded under the standing line, see packet.md) — "it's time to really love 'Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God is one Lord'" (voiced without citation) — "it's time to really love holiness and separation from the world. You gotta be real."

Scriptures: Romans 9:4

Something never experienced before

  • He voices a word he presents as God's answer to those longing for things "as it once was" (this stretch of the caption track is the most heavily garbled in the capture, and the summary reports only its recoverable burden, quoting none of it — see packet.md Flag 11): the days of looking back are over; what happened on the day of Pentecost was for that day; God is wanting to give something never experienced before — something deep, something fresh — an endowment of power for the future, not a retrieval of the past. "If you want to get the miracle, you must not fake it — you've got to faith it."
  • "Hear me tonight: we don't have to inflate numbers; we don't have to exaggerate numbers. You're not under any pressure — just be who you are, doing what God told you to do, at your very best effort." When you are faking, nothing works. Jesus ignored her; she went to the disciples — "Lord, send her away"; when he finally spoke, the sense of it was: you're a goat, not a sheep. "The Bible even says she worshiped him — but when you're faking, not even worship works, because true worshipers must worship him in spirit and in truth" (the wording is voiced without citation). "That's more than doctrine — that's truth about me. I gotta worship him from the standpoint: I'm just a sinner saved by grace. I gotta worship him from the platform that I don't deserve anything, that I don't merit anything."
  • Then Jesus hit her with what should have been the knockout punch — "It is not meet to give the children's bread to the dogs" — and her eyes were opened. It was as if Jesus said: I ignored you and you didn't get the message; my disciples told you to leave and you didn't get the message; let's try this and see if you can understand. "And then all of a sudden she had a breakthrough. How? She said: truth — I'm not faking anymore. I see my mask has been Paulo; I see that I haven't fooled you at all; I see my facade in my fake cream and my fraudulence has gotten me nowhere with you. Truth, Lord." "And the next verse says: then Jesus answered. The answer will come when you get real. The answer will come when you pull the mask on, when you quit camouflaging, when you quit hiding."

Truth, Lord: just a crumb

  • Some tonight could get their miracle if they would just jump up and shout "Truth, Lord." We use the verse so much and still may not have got it: "If my people, which are called by my name" — the next phrase is probably the very heart of it all: "if they will humble themselves, and say: Truth, Lord" (the wording is voiced without its book ever being named — see packet.md). "Revival's not coming because of who we are… It's not what we've done; it's what he did. Truth, Lord."
  • He walks her answer out: she agreed — "that's right, Lord; no, it's not proper to give the children's bread to the dogs" — "and this is where I think this little woman staggered Jesus Christ, when she said: but wait a minute, Lord — don't the dogs… I'm beginning to say something here. There's a chance for me; I see a little ray of light here; I see a little crack in the door. I know I'm a dog, but don't the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table?" And he sees Jesus starting to back up, eyes wide open, saying: "O woman, great is thy faith." "Because out of her honesty, out of her truthfulness of who she was, she got a revelation of who he was — and that gave her something to stand on, to believe that even she could get an answer from God."
  • "Think with me here, Jesus: I'm not asking for the children's brand. You see, I'm not wanting a loaf, a slice, or even a role. For me to ask you to catch a demon out of my daughter somewhere else, with a word — I know who you are — that's a crumb. For you to cast devils out somewhere else with one word is dog food. I don't need to get to the table; just the crumb will do. But you can't fake it — you gotta say, Truth, Lord."
  • He brings them to their feet. One of our major struggles: "you just don't know why city, and you just don't know my church, and you just don't know my district, and you just don't know our history." For God to give us a miracle, "we're just about to break his back for us to have revival — the angels would have to rub him down with Ben-Gay the next day; his muscles would be sore; the angels would have to take a towel and wipe the sweat off his brow." But this revelation of simplistic understanding changed the way he prays: "You know, Lord, I kind of hate to bother you with this. You are so big, and what I'm asking you for is so little — it's just a crumb." For him to cast a devil out across town is just a crumb — and she got a promise that the work was done before she knew it: "you can do it now, and it'll happen; you're gonna get home and find out it happened."
  • "One last note: if casting out devils across town is dog food, what will he do for his children? If you'll do those kind of things for the dogs, what will he do for his bride? What will he do for his church?" He invites them to lift their hands and tell God what they want him to do: "It's just a little thing, God. You can give us a new building — that's just a crumb. You can send us a revival — that's just a crumb. You can save my backswing son (captioned "backswing") — that's no big thing Kong that's just a little thing." There the panel's caption text ends, 27 seconds before the video does (see packet.md Flag 3).

than Joshua Joshua didn't get it right Joshua didn't say it right it's not in verbage it's not in phraseology because the son was not moving around the earth the earth moves around the Sun but God said that's alright I know what you mean you don't have to get it just right just be desperate just be - Bharat break the bond intervention can they be seated the scripture says with God nothing shall be impossible brother tinnie I got this thought when you were preaching the anniversary services for brother David Hennigan you and I were there together Patsy and I were sitting on the other front when you were preaching you read your text and you read that verse and I elbowed Pat yes Wow she doesn't like to sit me beside beside me in church she gets sore ribs and bursted eardrums cuz I popped my hand so loud she said could you do that a little softer I said oh lord have mercy I said I hope he's not gonna preach on that she said what just wait that's it just wait I see something I've never seen this before he read it I said whoa it says for with God nothing shall be impossible I had always restricted that verse to me that with God no thing is impossible in other words no matter how absurd ridiculous far-out difficult it may appear with God he can do it but I saw something in that verse I've never seen it and this is what it is really what the Bible seemed to be speaking to me is with God nothing is impossible there is an impossibility with God it's nothing you can't have God and come up with nothing you may not get everything but you're going to get something because nothing is there a possibility with God you can't pray and come up with nothing you can't worship and come up with nothing you can't have a Bible and come up with nothing you can't love God and come up with nothing that's impossible so called home and preached this truth nothing is impossible that's why when Jesus walked up he saw the nets on the shore the ships were docked fishermen were cleaning their nets Jesus said having any meat they weren't bite he said cast your nets on the right side Lord we have talent we have told all night and taking nothing but with me nothing is impossible you got to do it one more time I said you gotta do it one more time because nothing is that impossibility with God

now notice when they went out they dropped a net you've heard that you've dropped they dropped a net but the reasons that Jesus said Nets is because he's Almighty God he could see what was above the water and he could see what was under the water and he knew there was more than one net load of fish under that water but you see sometimes fishermen lose their direction and they get more excited about cleaning nets than they do fishing I've convinced that one of our maladies is we give too much time for cleaning that and not enough time division we're not here to show off our sparkling lips the master is looking for me the master is interested in this he did say on your next clean do you have it now let me hurry I show you this Hey I've always bragged on Simon but I gotta pull him back just a little bit here tonight I wonder how much of his harvest of fish he lost because of reluctant obedience see he had all of his nets clean and to fish them again would mean he must dirty them and what he was saying is I'll do what you asked me to do but I'm only going to risk one net and because of that his net began to break let me tell you Church we need to get ready for a net breaking ship sinking Holy Ghost revived the Prophet braid accent Ola he prayed he said Cola he said I don't see anything he said that can't be so because with God nothing is impossible you better look again there's something there you better go back home and take another look there's revival in your church there's no miracle in your church there's power in your church because with God nothing is impossible he doesn't really need me to defend him but I would like to make some expressions in respect to my master because his conduct with this little woman was a bit unseemly when you consider the Bible said he ignored her when you consider the fact the Bible says he insulted her when you consider the fact that he injuriously excluded her but I want to show you why she was treated in that measure the Bible said she was a woman of Cana which meant she was outside the pavilion of promises which meant she was not covered in the canopy of covenants which meant she felt very disadvantaged very distanced and very much disqualified because Romans 9 and 4 says that to the Jews are every advantage they have the adoption they have the glory they have the covenants

they are the giving of the law they are the service of God they have the promises whose are the fathers to whom Christ came and she knew that none of that included and I know that I preached tonight to some people who feel disadvantaged distanced disqualified and feel like sometimes you have no rhyme or reason for anticipation there is a danger in feeling that way because if you're not careful you'll make the mistakes she made because the Bible said when she came on the scene she said oh Jesus Oh Lord thou son of David have mercy on me she threw out every Orthodox achill highly ecclesiastical theological term that she could use my opinion is she was trying to fool him my opinion is she was trying to fake her way to a miracle and when you fake it you will get ignored and when you fake it you will get your feelings hurt and when you fake it you won't make it she tried to camouflage herself so that she could think something to stand on to get what she wanted from God somebody shout hallelujah let me tell you tonight methods do matter she did have a real need but her method did not turn him on her method turned him off asked Moses if methods count when God said you're going to deliver Israel from Egypt he goes out and the first thing he does is put to work his method that's the killer killing egyptian methods do matter God told him to smite the stone one time and give its water the next time to speak to it he thought well we'll do the same thing we didn't do it this is what wrote it last time this is one of bring it again and he was hung up on his methods methods do matter with God but you cannot fake it you have got to face it I am seeing and feel very much concerned that there are too many young preachers trying to fake it trying to fake it but if you fake it you'll never make it let me tell you tonight young man that a haircut to match a famous TV evangelist won't bring you revival hairdos don't bring revival gestures and mannerisms will bring revival voice inflections and verbage won't bring revival learning all the right things to say like a hot dog won't bring you a revival you can't fake it you gotta face it Oh Lincoln won't bring your revival

ask the seven sons of Siva hey only shirt ask the seven sons of Siva who said to the devil we are surely by Jesus whom Paul preaches the devil said these are fakes but what really turned me today is I study the scripture of fresh I never hadn't noticed it the Bible said they were the sons of a cheap priest they knew what to say they knew how to say it they had the line but they didn't have the life and if you fake it you'll end up losing your shirt somebody shout hallelujah what I'm trying to preach you tonight is this that the Spirit is calling us back to reality it's time to be real men of God it's time to be real apostolic preachers it's time to really love acts 2:38 it's time to really love hear o Israel the Lord our God is one Lord it's time to really love holiness and separation from the world you gotta be real Jesus help us here Oh basically they said we wanted as it once was but my answer to that was he shot receive power I was going to do something that never experienced the ball I am here tonight to tell you brush armor days are over I'm here to tell you what happened on the day of Pentecost was for that day but many are looking back to the past to receive something for their present but I am wanting to give you something you've never experienced before that take you in your future I am wanting to endow you with power something you have never tasted of all good looking back to get a hold of something and I'm wanting to do new that's something you've never even experienced something deep something fresh faith oh and it's not something you have tasted of yet present about Christmas with a power that I bring upon you has been there but you shall taste of it in a way and then station in the ball it is praise the Lord would you if you want to get the miracle you must not fake it you've got to faith it hear me tonight we don't have to inflate numbers hear me tonight we don't have to exaggerate numbers here we are tonight to tell you you're not under any pressure just be who you are doing what God told you to do get it at your very best effort don't they get played bad

when you are fake and you may be seated just a few more minutes when you are faking nothing works Jesus ignored her she went to the disciples they said Lord send her away when he finally spoke to her he said you're a goat not a sheep she was a fake The Bible even says she worshiped him but when you're faking not even worship works because true worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth that's more than doctrine that's truth about me I gotta worship Him from the standpoint I'm just a sinner saved by grace I gotta worship Him from the platform that I don't deserve anything that I don't merit anything and then Jesus hit her with what should have been the knockout punch and her eyes were open he said it is not meet to give the children's bread to the dogs it's as if Jesus was sin we'll try one more time I ignored you but you didn't get the message my disciples told you to leave but you didn't get the message I called you a goat and you didn't get the message so let's try this dog routine and see if you can understand this and he said it's not me to give the children's bread to the dog and then all of a sudden she had a breakthrough how she said truth I'm not faking anymore I see my mask has been Paulo I see that I haven't fooled you at all I see that my facade in my fake cream and my fraudulence II has gotten me nowhere with you truth Lord and the next verse says then jesus answered the answer will come when you get real the answer will come when you pull the mask on when you quit camouflaging when you get quit hiding and you say right Lord there's some of you tonight that could get your miracle if you just jump up and shout truth Lord we use that verse so much but I'm still not sure we got it if my people which are called by my name the next phrase is probably the very heart of it all if they will humble themselves and say truth Lord revivals not coming because of who we are but because of please

it's not what we've done it's what he did truth Lord the Kate faked it and then she said that's right Lord no it's not it's not proper to give the children's bread to the dogs and this is where I think this little woman staggered Jesus Christ when she said but wait a minute Lord don't the dogs I'm beginning to say something here there's a chance for me I see a little ray of light here I see a little crack in the door I know I'm a dog but don't the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master's table and then I see Jesus Christ starting to back up with his eyes wide open and saying oh woman great is my faith because out of her honesty out of her truthfulness of who she was she got a revelation of who here and that gave her something to stand on to believe that even she could get an answer from God because she said wait a minute Lauren hold on truth but wait a minute hey wait a minute think with me here Jesus I'm not asking for the children's brand she said you see I'm not wanting a loaf a slice or even a role for me to ask you to cast a demon out of my daughter somewhere else with a word I know who you are that's a crumb you know what she was saying for you to catch Devils out somewhere else my one word is dog food that's dog food I don't need to get to the table just the crumb will do what I think just a crumb where more than me money but you can't fake it you gotta say truth Lord stand with me right now one of our major struggles is this but you just don't know why city and you just don't know my church and you just don't know my district and you just don't know our history for God to give me a miracle we're just about break

his back for us to have revival the Angels would have to rub him down with bengay the next day his muscles would be sore the angels would have to take a towel and wipe the sweat off his brow when God gave me this revelation of simplistic understanding of Scripture it changed the way I pray now I just say you know Lord I kind of hate to bother you with this you are so B and what i'ma ask you for is so little it's just a crumb you have got your needs no bear and your God so little but I want to tell you for him the cash to devil out across town just to crumb and I got a promise out of somebody the works been done and you're not gonna know it till you get home she says you can do it now and it'll happen you're gonna get home and find out it happened just the calm he did but you can't fake it you've got to be real one last note if casting out Devils across town it's dog food what will he do for his children if you'll do those kind of things for the dogs what will he do for his bride what will they do for his church what what I do for his children I want you to do something with me right now I won't you lift your hands and whatever you want God to do I want you to tell him right now it's just a little thing God you can give us a new building that's just a crumb you can send us a revival that's just a crumb you can save my backswing son that's no big thing Kong that's just a little thing
