So when you get a word of the Lord and you know that you've already tested it,
you know that it's the word of the Lord. Go doubting nothing.
Obey doubting nothing. Is the Lord speaking to you about something?
Has he given you something to do? Go and do it.
God promises in Joel 2, 28 to pour out His Spirit on all humanity.
Welcome to Global Outpouring, where we contend for that promised outpouring.
We equip for that outpouring so that we may engage in that very outpouring.

So, Philip, you had this visitation, so to speak. I mean, the Lord spoke
to your spirit recently. Tell us that story. Tell us what happened.
I was just having my morning prayer time and kind of getting into my prayer chair
and just praying in the Holy Spirit, you know, and praying in tongues.
And I was praying about our convention. You know, we signed a contract to have
our convention in St. Louis in May of next year.
May 21st through 24th, over Memorial Weekend.
Thank you. And it's just like there's so much involved when you do that.
You know, it's been a while and because now you're guaranteed so many rooms
to be filled.
And we haven't done this for five years.
Yeah, and we don't have a crew that has packed up because even preparing for
a convention, you know, it takes a lot of work loading trucks and and you
know, things like that.
And so I'm just praying into this.
And what was just quickening into my spirit was doubting nothing.
And I thought I knew where that came from.
You know, that and so that comes from what was Peter.
He was at the house of Simon and Tanner.
He was on the roof. I think he was praying on the roof and waiting for lunch.
Yeah. Going to have Peter and hummus, I guess.
I don't know. He was hungry. He was hungry.
Well, they were by the seaside. So maybe they were going to have some fish.
Sure. He loved fish. Yeah, he's a fisherman.
You know, so so anyway, then he has this vision.
Then the King James describes it as a great sheet that came down with all these
unclean animals, you know, things maybe we would eat, you know, and
maybe maybe we wouldn't. Maybe we wouldn't.
And he says, The Lord said, Arise, Peter, kill and eat.
You know, and this happened three times.
You know, three is a number that always gets Peter's attention because he denied
the Lord three times. Oh, that's right.
You know, so so he's doubting.
What does this vision really mean?
And then, you know, the Holy Spirit says, you know, these men that are coming for
you, you go with them, doubting nothing.
Yes, yes. And the Lord spoke to him in that vision about what I have called
clean. Don't you call unclean?
Yeah. Yeah. And because this was totally against his his theology.
Yes, yes, yes. He's been eating kosher all his life.
And all of a sudden, he's got to eat these unclean things.
And God was preparing him because he's going to be going to places maybe where
food is not kosher. Right.
So why don't you tell about Cornelius?
So in the beginning of that chapter, this is Acts, Chapter 10.
In the beginning of that chapter, Cornelius, who is a Roman centurion, a
Gentile Italian, he he's having his quiet time in the afternoon.
And all of a sudden, an angel appears to him and he he was a devout, godly man.
And he was he, you know, he's living among Jews and he's behaving like a
Christian. He's behaving according to God's purposes.
Apparently, though, he had not become a proselyte, but he was he was
worshiping the same god, I believe.
I don't think I don't think he was worshiping the wrong one.
He wasn't worshiping Samaritans or something.
No, no. So so this angel appears to him and says to him, let me just read it
out of the Amplified Classic about the ninth hour, about three p.m., the
ninth hour of the day, he saw clearly in a vision an angel of God entering
and saying to him, Cornelius.
And he gazing intently at him became frightened and said, What is it, Lord?
And the angel said to him, Your prayers and your generous gifts to the poor
have come up as a sacrifice to God and have been remembered by him.
Now send men to Joppa and have them call and invite here a certain Simon
whose surname is Peter.
You could say Simon the Rock.
He's lodging with Simon, a tanner whose house is by the seaside.
When the angel who spoke to him had left, Cornelius called two of his
servants and a God fearing soldier from among his own personal attendants.
And having rehearsed everything to them, he sent them to Joppa.
So the next day they are at the gate about to knock when Peter has this
vision. Yeah.
So Peter says, OK, I'll go with you.
So he and six other men, Jewish men, they went with these Gentiles and
they're thinking, What are we doing?
Yeah. We've never done anything like this before.
Yeah. This is a whole new thing.
Usually when a Roman centurion comes to your door, it's not good.
Yeah. Especially back there.
Yep. That would be true. That would be true.
That'd be like the KGB coming to your door in the USSR before the Soviet
Union fell apart. Right.
It's not good news.
So they get to Cornelius's house and Cornelius tells the story again.
You know, the servants told the story and then he's telling it again.
He's got a whole house full of people waiting to hear the word of the Lord.
Wow. Yeah.
They were ready. They were ready to hear what Peter had to say because an
angel has appeared to him.
You know, something supernatural has got them all stirred up.
So Peter starts preaching.
Yeah. And he's telling them about Jesus.
And while he's talking, he didn't give an altar call.
Oh, no. Holy Spirit just fell.
And they're all speaking in tongues.
And, you know, which is contrary to a lot of people would believe today, you
have to get saved first.
But salvation has to do with believing.
They believed what he said.
Yeah.
So if you believe in your heart, I mean, by this time, they're ready to
confess with their mouths of what they're believing in their heart.
But while they're trying to confess it, up comes tongues.
Holy Spirit falls. Yeah.
It's just amazing.
Yeah. And I love what it says in, well, I don't know exactly what verse it is.
Maybe 40, 40 something.
It says those of the circumcision, the Jewish people who were with him, who
believed. I mean, these are believers, believers in Jesus.
They were astonished because the gift of the Holy Spirit had been poured out
on the Gentiles.
Also poured out.
And guess what?
What are we? Gentiles.
Exactly. Exactly.
So once word gets out, well, I guess they got baptized too.
Peter says, well, they're filled with the Holy Spirit.
I guess probably we should baptize them.
I'm sure a house like that had a pool.
Well, yeah, probably so.
Or they were by, well, yeah, Caesarea is by the sea.
So they could have been baptized in the Mediterranean there.
But, you know, the point is that, and let me just take a little quick bunny
trail. I think this is just my opinion.
This isn't something to build a doctrine on.
Or maybe you can, but I don't know that when Jesus was baptized, he said to
John, John is saying I should be baptized by you.
And Jesus says to John, the Baptist, just allow this to happen.
It needs this needs to happen.
I need to do this.
Yeah. And of course, it's at that moment he gets, he gets baptized.
He gets the Holy Spirit poured out on him like a dove comes and lands on
him and just hovers over him.
Or, I mean, the scripture isn't clear exactly what it looked like.
But my point is that, yes, that was part of his anointing that made him the
Messiah for us.
And because Messiah means anointed one.
Okay. So he was anointed with the Holy Spirit, which is in this chapter we
were just reading Acts chapter 10.
He was anointed with the Holy Spirit and he went about doing good and healing
all. Yeah, that's it.
All that were oppressed of the devil.
But I also think that it had something to do with giving an example to us as
believers that as we start our walk with him in the anointing, that we would
also be baptized, that we would also walk with him in this step by step walk.
I mean, you walk step by step, right?
So at the beginning of your walk with the Lord, at the beginning of your
stepping into the anointing, that's when you get baptized.
And so all these centuries and millennia since then, as new believers would come
to the Lord, they would be baptized.
Now, if you become a proselyte of Judaism, you have to be baptized.
Now, if you're a man, you have to be circumcised too.
But you have to be they don't call it baptism.
They call it going to the mikvah.
Mikvah.
But that's the mikvah is a baptism.
Baptism.
And you immerse yourself.
You immerse yourself.
Yeah.
Nobody does it for you.
Right.
So that's why Peter would have had these new believers be baptized, because
that's the steps that Jesus laid out for us and did it by example.
So anyway, the folks back in Jerusalem hear about this and they're in an uproar.
You went into a certain uncircumcised man's house.
You've got to be kidding.
But that was the start because this is going to be a whole new revolution.
Yes.
The Gentiles coming in, not just the just for the Jews.
This is the the Gentiles.
And that's just changed everything.
And what is amazing is because Paul, who is learned under Gamilio,
who is one of the sharpest Pharisee of Pharisees.
Yeah.
And he and he turned out being an apostle to the Gentiles.
Right.
But God used Peter first.
He had to use one of the twelve.
Right.
Before it would be handed off to Paul, because Peter had to step up when there
was this question of now, do the Gentiles have to get circumcised?
No, actually, they don't because in the House of Cornelius,
they believed the Holy Spirit was poured out on them.
They were baptized.
They did not have to get circumcised to do any of those things.
And, you know, the discussion goes that Abraham was accepted by his faith
before he was circumcised.
So the circumcision has nothing to do with your salvation.
So anyway, moving on as this uproar is going on in Jerusalem,
Peter tells the story again and he uses the same expression.
Yes, doubting nothing.
Yeah.
The Holy Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing.
And, you know, one reason we felt uneasy about having convention,
you know, if you're doubting, you know, was because of what's going to happen
at the election time.
What's the economy going to be like?
And then when I was in church this last Sunday, our pastor was talking
and when he was, before he was pastor for a number of years,
they got this big building, big gym, all that, and they had a school.
I think it was through 12th grade.
Yeah, and pastor went to that school when he was young.
Yeah, he went through the whole thing.
And then things happened and the school shut down.
So you have this big building not being used a lot.
Then they got a daycare, which is really good, done very well.
And then the Lord starts speaking to him about starting school up again.
It's like, oh, wow, I mean, that's a whole other thing.
And so they persevered and prayed and started kindergarten.
That was last year.
Last year.
And then the Lord speaks to him about continuing on.
Okay, now start a first grade.
And so he's just kind of waffling about it for the same reasons that we would too.
You know, what's going to happen at election?
He thought, well, I'm just going to wait till election and see what happens.
And the Lord just quickened to him, you know, that I spoke to you to start the school.
So he just announced it.
You know, I forget how long time ago it was.
You know, he's talking about doing it.
But that just gave him what he needed.
And I just shared on Sunday morning when he was telling this, you know, what our thing was.
You know, it's been five years since we did a convention.
Well, we've been having conventions, but very small ones at our very small facility.
But not in a hotel.
Yeah.
Well, you make commitments.
You make commitments.
And, you know, budget can get pretty big too.
And so that was just a comment for him.
Then a few other prophetic words that came, you know, that was really right on that thing.
And so it's just like, you know, when God gives you something that's maybe out of your box,
that was totally out of Peter's box.
Yes.
What is interesting to me is that you've got these Jewish guys, the circumcision guys,
and they are livid that these people have gone into the house of a Gentile
because the Gentiles are just plain unclean.
But I think because of the trouble that they got in before they were sent off to Babylon,
you know, they didn't do what God said in the first place and get rid of all of the Canaanites.
If they had done that, I think things would have been different.
But they didn't.
And they learned the ways of their neighbors.
And they began going into idolatry, da-da-da-da-da.
And they went into captivity.
So when they came back, I think that was the birthplace of the Pharisees,
that, okay, we were in so much trouble.
We've got to do this right now.
Yeah.
And so they became the law police.
We'll talk about the law on a soon coming episode.
But the idea was that, you know, you shunned everything that doesn't look like the law.
Right.
I mean, that's why they were so angry with Jesus all the time,
because they didn't understand that the law, so-called the Torah, the instruction is a better term for it.
That these instructions that God gave them were for their good and for relationship with Him.
Because if you do these things, it's because you love the Lord your God with all your heart,
with all your soul, with all your mind, with all your strength.
But they didn't have a grid that God wanted to do things among the Gentiles,
even though God had said to Abraham, in you, all the nations of the world will be blessed.
Now, obviously, that's talking about Jesus who was going to come out of his line, out of his family line,
Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, all the way down to Jesus.
But God said that to Abraham that he was going to be the father of many nations.
Yeah.
And that, and we know by faith, Abraham, all these things by faith.
By faith.
There were other scriptures that they weren't getting like Psalm 67,
where it says, God be merciful to us and bless us and cause His face to shine upon us.
Silah, just stop and think about that.
That your way may be known on earth, your salvation among all nations.
Let the peoples praise you.
Peoples.
Not just the Jewish people, not just the children of Israel, the children of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Let the peoples praise you, O God.
Let all the peoples praise you.
Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you shall judge the people righteously and govern the nations on earth.
Silah, think about this.
Let all the peoples praise you, O God.
Let all the peoples praise you.
Then the earth shall yield her increase.
God, our God, shall bless us.
God shall bless us and all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.
Now, how could they not understand that God wanted to do something among the Gentiles when you've got a Psalm like that?
And there's multiple scriptures.
Yeah, there's different talks about the nations.
Yeah.
So here's the point.
When we get a paradigm, when we get a school of thought that is a certain way, we get troubled by an idea that's outside of that.
You know, it just kind of rocks us.
We don't we have a tendency to say no to anything that doesn't fit our paradigm.
Right.
Doesn't fit our mindset.
But God is about to do all kinds of things in the earth that don't fit our mindset.
Yeah.
Wow.
And that's part of the outpouring.
Yeah.
I was there was there was during my prayer times is some time back.
And and what just came to me was, you know, we're waiting for the third visual Pentecost.
I mean, we've had a lot of Pentecostal things happen.
Oh, yeah, we have the Holy Spirit poured out whales that got poured out on Azusa Street.
Yes.
You know, the Hebrides, all these mighty revivals.
But the first time there was a visual of God, the presence of God, the outpouring was on Mount Sinai.
Yeah.
It was all together on a smoke, as the King James says.
And, you know, and the Lord told Moses, tell the people, wash your clothes and don't come at your wives.
You know, be pure because something's going to happen.
Yeah.
And when it happened, I mean, there's lightning and smoke and fire.
The trumpet and the people were scared.
Earthquake.
I mean, they saw the pillar of fire separating them from Pharaoh.
Yeah.
But this was the whole mountain is.
Yeah.
God is on the mountain.
Yeah.
Wow.
You know, and the second time that there was a visual like this was on the day of Pentecost.
Yes, which was a celebration of the celebration of what we just talked about.
The fire came down, but this time, instead of coming down on the mountain, it came down on their heads.
Amen.
They're all speaking in tongues in all different languages.
Yes.
And then I was quick and I thought, but there's going to be a third visual Pentecost.
I believe God is going to reveal things that we've never seen.
And we'll see.
I mean, there are the seers that see stuff all the time in meetings.
Yes.
And everybody's just kind of wondering, you know, they're the only ones that see it, you know.
But I remember I was Bruce Allen that said all these different strange things you see it, you know, like your E.T.'s and all these funny characters, all these these little green, all this and that.
And he said, well, you know, I'm going to tell you something, because people that created these actually saw these as demonic spirits.
Yeah.
Might high on cocaine or drugs or something like that.
And he said, but the day is going to come.
This is after the rapture.
People are taken out that these demons are going to materialize in real life and people's hearts will fail them for fear.
And anything that is just off kilter, it's going to be it's going to happen because we're going to be out of here and it's going to be people are going to get scared.
Yeah.
When you see your little and we've heard testimonies of children speaking, you know, like the one I remember one the cabbage patch does is it scares me because it walks around at night.
And this is a little kid talking.
Yeah.
You know, think, well, he's Sonny's just not telling the truth.
They they see things.
You know, they see things.
And if your child or something says something that something's walking, check your toy box, you know, check what's in there.
Because if there is because even caution you when you go to a nation, you be careful what you bring home with you.
Yes, because there could have been something that was spell cast over that.
And you're taking that thing home and and it can materialize in your house.
Yeah. You know, that's so that's just a word to the wise.
So when your children say something on those wise, if they maybe watched a Harry Potter or if you have any of that stuff, get rid of it because it's witchcraft 101.
Yeah. And it's just you're opening a door to the occult in your house.
If you have any paraphernalia or anything like that.
And that's why a lot of meetings you hear in Africa, people would bring their books, their charms and all that stuff and they have a big bonfire and they would burn them.
Mm hmm. Cutting clean. You have to be cut and clean.
So we are getting even as the Lord spoke to Moses to tell the children of Israel to prepare yourself.
That's what the Holy Spirit is saying today. Yeah.
Prepare yourself that and all the prophetic people are are saying this, you know, those that are really, you know, really what waiting for God to move. Prepare yourself for what's going to happen.
Get clean. Yeah. Don't don't let stuff pull you down because, you know, God wants to use you.
But if you're tied to things of this earth, it's going to be you could get bypassed. Yeah, it's true.
It's true. Some of the things that he is planning to pour out are unprecedented.
Yeah, it's like just imagine yourself among the children of Israel when they were escaping from Egypt and God told them.
God told Moses, go to the Al-Zafon. That's a certain place right on the edge of the Red Sea. Yeah.
OK. And it's as I recall, it's got kind of like a narrow canyon where you're you're boxed in.
And so you're boxed in on the sides by this canyon. And then in front of you is the Red Sea.
And here comes Pharaoh and his army. But God told them to go there. Yeah. OK.
So go and do what I told you to do, doubting nothing. But the circumstances, they're going, Moses, why did you bring us out here to kill us?
You know, here we're going to die. They they weren't doubting. Yeah.
They were absolutely certain they were going to die. Yeah. That was certainty for them.
And I'm sure Peter thought that, too. Remember, he's on the boat with the disciples. Oh, yeah.
And Jesus appears in the storm. Yeah, he's walking on the water. So he walks on the water and and Peter can swim. Yeah.
Peter's a good swimmer. But when you have waves like they were happen, but when he kept his eyes on Jesus, he was doing fine.
But when he looked down, that's like when you're climbing a tall building, a ladder or something, you don't look down.
I mean, I was just watching, you know, these little shorts come up on your phone sometimes.
And they had a thing of China's amazing bridges. They have all glass bridges way up in the air. As you walk, they crack.
They crack up here. And people are panicking on the bridge.
They can't look in there, you know, because they think they're going to they're going to die. It's a panic.
You know, it's really, really scary. Don't don't go on those things.
You know, but Peter probably thought he was going to die because of the waves, even though he was a swimmer.
You remember when when they're fishing after the disciples went to the Sea of Galilee and Jesus said, Terry, here, here.
He says, Terry in Jerusalem to your dude with power on high.
Well, I think they right. Right. It was before that. Yeah. Yeah, that's right.
Because Jesus was resurrected. He he appeared to them.
And Peter, Peter had already said, let's go fishing. Yeah, let's go.
They had seven weeks between Passover and and I think it's young. And so they're so they're in the water and fish all night.
You know, this is a repeat what happened before. They got nothing.
Then all of a sudden, you know, there's a man on the shore.
And what do you say? Are you catching anything? No, no.
Cast it on the other side. Yeah. And what happened? They caught so much.
And so what's Peter do? He said it is the Lord jumps in the water and swam.
I mean, he swam. So, you know, Peter was a, you know, usually if you're a fisherman, you learn how to swim.
I would think so. But what's amazing, you know, nobody's saying nothing.
Here's fish. OK. Where did Jesus get the fish? Right.
How did he get fish? He's already got fish on the grill. Did he have a net?
How did he get out there far enough to catch him? He's got bread. Where did he get that?
Yeah. If he can manufacture manna, he can do all that, too.
Yeah. And they're all sitting and nobody's saying nothing. Yeah.
You know, but then when Jesus says to Peter, do you love me more than these?
Yeah. And of course, he did that three times. Right.
But back to your point about he walked on the water because because he saw Jesus.
Yeah. What Jesus told him to come. He said, come. Yeah.
So he was obedient. Right. But in his obedience, he looked down and he doubted.
Yeah. It was the doubting that made him doubt that made you sink. Yep.
And what was that word we heard the other day? Yeah.
Something about Peter didn't walk on the water. He walked on the word of the word of work, walked on the word of the Lord.
Yeah. So that's this obedience thing that we're talking about, that when the Lord gives you a word, you need to do what he says without doubting.
And that's what John did on the Isle of Patmos. And when he had his visitation. Yeah.
And he wrote all these things down. Yeah. Like, well, he was obedient. Right.
I mean, he was he was Jesus' best friend. I think so.
But he and he had a glimpse of Jesus and his glorified body on them, you know, on the mountain.
Peter, James and John, when they saw Jesus transfigured.
But now they saw Jesus in his glory that he had in heaven. Yes.
And it was more than anybody could handle. Just ask Daniel. Just ask Isaiah. He fell at his feet is dead.
He fell at his feet is dead. All my strength went out of me. You know, when you get to and you see that what happens and people in the presence of God.
Yeah. They just crumble. Yeah. Yeah, that's true.
It's true. You know, I've been pondering myself about.
Well, I guess the Lord has kind of challenged me recently.
I've had at least three people recently have been saying to me, what is God saying about Engel tall?
That's the name of our headquarters. It's a German name that means Angel Valley or Valley of Angels.
And they're saying, you know, what is God saying about Engel tall?
What is he saying about global outpouring? What what what's ahead for us?
So I've been holding this before the Lord for weeks, weeks and weeks, trying to hear something new.
And so in the meantime, I'm going back through the history in in my memory.
You know, I've been here. I came like two years after the founders arrived here.
So I've been here for most of the history of of this ministry, at least once they moved to Arkansas.
It was started in Chicago some years before. And you were there then.
I mean, not that you were walking with the Lord, but you were there.
And so anyway, I just think it's interesting how he put it into our stewardship as our founders passed away.
But so I'm going through my mind about, OK, what is God saying?
So I know that in Sister Gwen, our founders in her administration, you know,
she just walked in this tremendous, anointing, tremendous prophetic gift,
tremendous writing, creative writing, music, all of these things and teaching.
She had a passion to teach the word.
And we had schools of ministry here for years and we had publishing of books.
And, you know, back in those days, it was cassette tapes.
And then eventually we graduated to CDs and DVDs and DVDs.
And, you know, somewhere in there we did VHS tapes and, you know, videos.
It was about training people, about equipping people.
We still have that as our vision.
So I'm thinking, what is there something else? Is there something I'm missing?
So I'm holding this before the Lord. And and one morning I had this.
How shall I say it? It wasn't like I heard it in my ears.
I didn't hear an audible voice and I didn't really hear specific words.
But if I were to put it in words, it was like an impression.
And if I were to put it into words, it was like you've adopted the name global outpouring.
I want to do that here.
Yeah.
So I began writing an article for a newsletter that we're putting out.
I guess by the time this podcast goes out,
the newsletter should be in the hands of the people who are on our written mailing list.
This is an old fashioned snail mail mailing.
So if you I've been encouraging you to get in our email list.
But if you're interested in getting the written one.
And honestly, last year we did one and we've done two this year.
So, wow, we used to try and do four or three here for quarterly newsletter.
I've been too busy anyway.
If you're interested in being on that mailing list, send us the email to feedback at global outpouring.org
and give us your address and we'll get one of these off to you in the mail.
I don't even have time to turn it into something that we can email.
It's we just stay in busy anyway.
So I wrote this article as I'm as I'm writing it about what is God saying about Angle Tall.
I'm writing it. I was reminded of the things that the Lord spoke to me when he gave us the new name of global outpouring.
And he talked about don't seek me for the outpouring.
Seek me for my heart for the outpouring.
You know, we want to just say, oh, God, pour out your spirit.
Oh, God, pour out your spirit.
And just let that be on our on our lips all the time or thank you for the outpouring that's coming.
But I want to know his heart.
Because if we know his heart, we're more likely to know how he wants to do things.
Yes. So that's what he told us to do.
And that was when he also told me that it's going to be like the book of Acts on steroids.
Wow. So that's I mean, that's huge.
That's huge. As you read the book of Acts, it's it's fully packed and including persecution,
including going through some things.
You know, how many times was Paul Shipwrecked?
Stoned. Stoned a few times.
I mean, stuff happened.
So there's stuff ahead that is both glorious and some stuff that we don't even want to think about.
And it's going to be like that on steroids.
But anyway, I'm going to take another quick parenthesis here that the Lord gave me a vision
back in 1997 of something that he wants to do in this time of outpouring, of doing unprecedented things.
And we told all about it in episode one.
If you go all the way back to episode one, you will hear more about this, what God wants to do in this outpouring.
I won't take time for that right now.
But I ran across this prophecy that the Lord had given to our founder, Sister Gwen Shaw.
And, you know, it's something that was very present in my thinking from the time that the Lord gave it to her.
I think I think it was 2004. I'm not absolutely certain.
But he spoke to her and said, Angle Tall is going to be the World Revival Center.
Yeah.
Angle Tall is going to be the World Revival Center.
And we're going, yeah.
Yeah.
And she told us specific things to do, which we were doing.
And she didn't see the fulfillment of all that.
But I believe the word of the Lord is still true.
And that's a big thing.
The World Revival Center.
I mean, what I'm saying is we don't have to understand what God says.
We just have to obey.
And when I was considering this word that the Lord gave to Sister Gwen and considering that it still is ahead for us,
that the Lord wants to make our headquarters the World Revival Center,
I could doubt about that because it's hard to get here.
But God has a purpose.
And just as surely as the word of the Lord through Sister Gwen came to pass,
when he spoke to her and through her that the Berlin Wall was going to come down two years before it came down.
And then when it came down, we were talking with our people in Berlin.
And Colonel Eugene Byrd was telling us that in the very place where she laid her hands and commanded the wall to come down,
that was the place where they broke it through.
Yeah.
And some of our handmaidens were there with the tract, Who is Jesus?
Yes.
In German language, passing them out as they came through.
Exactly. And they're coming through from a communist nation where they've had no word of God.
There's no God.
So while we were hearing all of this about what was going on there, she got the word of the Lord again.
And the Lord said, just as I have done this in Berlin, I'm going to do it in the Kremlin.
And communism fell there too.
Yeah, 1991.
Yeah. So, you know, my point is that she had a very accurate prophetic word.
When she heard something from God, it was sure.
And we've met people all over the world that she prophesied over that it's all come to pass.
So, you know, whatever the Lord wants to do in terms of this,
we're trusting that he is going to accomplish what he said and we're not going to doubt.
Doubting nothing. We don't have to make it be a world revival center, a the world revival center.
That's not up to us. What's up to us is to obey what we hear and what we see him doing.
And prepare.
And prepare. You know, whatever God wants us to do to prepare, we're still listening.
You know, what is that? What is that? How are we supposed to do that?
So I think this podcast has something to do with it.
We've been obedient. This is episode 239.
We've been faithful week after week after week.
Not missed one.
Yeah. Glory to God. Help us stay on track and always be there with with the word of the Lord for the week.
But my point is that whatever we are challenged with, our job is just to go and do it.
Doubting nothing.
Without hesitation. That was that was one of the other translations of that.
Yeah. That's right.
In Acts 1020, the CSB says, get up, go downstairs and go with them with no doubts at all, because I have sent them.
Do it with no doubts at all. We don't have to understand it.
We don't have to understand what God is telling us to do.
We just have to do it.
Now, I'll add this little this little caveat that you need to test the spirits that are speaking to you.
Make sure that that whatever voice is speaking to you is saying you ask it.
Did Jesus Christ come in the flesh?
It's like our camp breaking camp early last week.
Oh, yeah. A few weeks ago. Yeah.
The Lord just spoke to me. Pack up and go home.
We got two days left.
Yeah, but we we obeyed and we still really don't even know why.
But we obeyed. And I think that was the point.
Yeah. A lot of things to do, too, before we leave on the next trip.
Yeah, it's true.
And the other thing that in the Passion Translation of that scripture, as Peter was in deep thought, trying to interpret the vision, the Spirit said to him, go downstairs now for three men are looking for you.
Don't hesitate to go with them because I have sent them. Don't hesitate.
Yeah. So when you get a word of the Lord and you know that you've already tested it, you know that it's the word of the Lord.
Go. Doubting nothing. Obey. Yeah. Doubting nothing.
Is the Lord speaking to you about something? Has he given you something to do? Go and do it.
Now, be sure you get your confirmations. But when you got your confirmations, like when we went to Tibet, we've told that story.
We had like five or six or seven big confirmations.
OK, OK, I think we got the message. Yes, we will go.
So you just make sure that you get the confirmations.
Gideon kept asking, and God doesn't mind doing that as long as you're doing it from a really honest heart.
I suppose Gideon was doubting, but God made it clear enough for him to go forward without doubting.
Do you want to pray for our listeners?
Oh, Father, we thank you, Lord, for these words, Lord, and scriptures and that, Father, that those listening, Lord, if there's some, they're just kind of waffling or did I hear this? Did I not hear that?
But that, Father, that even asking for confirmation that they would know that they can go forth and do what you tell them to do, doubting nothing, because we can trust in your word.
You hold your word true. Your word is true.
Hallelujah to everything you speak is true.
And we're in a position to hear your voice that we can clearly hear it and, Lord, and we can do what's on your heart and not what is on our heart.
Yes. So we thank you, Father, in your name, Lord Jesus. Amen.
