If Possible Believe For Your Sake

This morning as I was getting ready I was talking to the Lord about one of my school kids. I was a school teacher for 14 years, and left that profession in May 2014 at the direction of God; my kids however, from all those years, have not left my heart. I remember years ago setting in a Braums Ice Cream Store, and God ministering to me how he had given me each one of those kids, put them in my life. I saw God remove and place who he wanted in my room every year, and those that would tell me all these problems I would have with this one or that one, only to be wrong. What people didn't know was I was believing God all I knew how for my kids.

I never had the desire to have children of my own, but I absolutely loved the children I taught as if they were. If they were in trouble or whatever the case I would often remind them that I treated them, disciplined them, loved them, as if they were my own. I read once in Lydia Prince's book "Appointment in Jerusalem" how she, a woman who had no children of her own, came to see one day it was simply the love of God in her for the children she taught and those she later adopted.

Today, my time is spent reading, fasting, praying, obeying God. Those children, some who are now adults with their own families, remain in my prayers, and are still "my kids". So this morning I was talking to the Lord about one of them, about their life, and so on; and I was reminded of another one in the process.

One that wasn't in trouble, or what you would call a "troubled" person, but one who in fact was successful. They were involved with another individual, in a situation that I believed was not God. They seemed thrilled of where things were, but when it came to my attention, I was praying. I never said a word to them, I just prayed. I prayed what I had been taught about believing the gospel, I prayed what God would put in my heart regarding the situation, I prayed, "If this is not you, not your will Lord, stop it!" Within a short period of time, maybe 3 to 4 weeks, something bizarre happened and the whole situation changed. God had intervened! You see, I only want the will of God in their lives.

This morning Doyle Davidson the minister and president here at Water of Life Ministries had some encouraging words to us all and the world. I pray they encourage you as they have me this day.

God Bless You,
Misty

If Possible Believe For Your Sake

Back in the 1970s a preacher sent a Baptist man to me because the preacher heard I cast out devils.  This man had a daughter that had moved in with a man and I was asked what I would do about it.  My reply was that I would go get her and bring her home.  Being politically correct he said that would be kidnapping! I answered, “Well, I obey God, and that would not be kidnapping”.  Some months later the man came back to me and said, “My daughter is pregnant”.  My response was, “Well what would you expect?” (What I would say today is “…with your unbelief.”)


Now God taught me over forty years ago the gospel and gave me a revelation of it.  The gospel is POWER! It is God’s power.  Do you hear what I am saying?  It is the power that raised Jesus from the dead.  It’s the power that will resurrect those that are dead in Christ. It is the power that will resurrect those that are dead but not in Christ.  Are you getting some idea of this power that I preach, that I minister, and that I walk in? Then if you are going to preach this power and believe it, it will rest upon the person you preach it to. 


Now that man whose daughter was pregnant said he believed the gospel, but frankly he believed nothing or the daughter would not have been pregnant.  Do you think that the gospel that I preach and believe and demonstrate could not keep a man or a woman’s daughter from getting pregnant? Well I’m telling you it can if you can believe that your daughters will not get pregnant because of the gospel that you preach to them. 


I had a young man that told me that Kathy Mai was his wife and he came through my door like some Judo-nut (All of your martial arts cannot stand in the power I walk in).  So after he left to go back to Denton, Texas, I prayed the power of God upon him.  That power came into his nice little baby blue Grand Prix Pontiac and shook it and shook him.  He was scared of that power.  Needless to say he didn’t marry Kathy Mai.  


Now you can continue to say you believe the gospel and talk doubt, fear, and flesh, and you will most certainly end up with a pregnant daughter if God does not have mercy on you. 


Let me give you an example that might help all of you worldwide.


II Corinthians 8:9 states God made me rich.  Well, I believe that and have for more than 35 years. If I do not have money in my bank account I shout, “Where is my money?”  And if I were in your shoes and the devil was telling me that my daughter was committing fornication I would break the power of the devil over her and speak (maybe not to her) “Flee fornication!” Now those things will work if you can believe the gospel and not believe flesh. 


My friends you have to be mean to the devil. You have to speak with boldness to the devil. You have to speak boldness to the devil that’s got your kids or your wife or your husband.  If you will listen to what I teach you, you will learn how to rule your house. 


My first wife (she is in heaven today and went in 2003) yielded her members to the devil and when I started to speak to the devil that had her bound, that devil in her said to me, “Doyle you used to love me, now you scare me”.  I was not scaring anybody but the devil. 


Believe the gospel!
