GORDAN: MYSTERY SHOPPERS GO

INTO DEPARTMENT STORES

UNDERCOVER AND EVALUATE CUSTOMER

SERVICE.

THERE IS A NEW TWIST TO THIS

CONCEPT.

PASTORS ARE MAKING IT TO MAKE

THEIR CHURCHES BETTER.

EPHRAIM GRAHAM BRINGS US THE

STORY.

DON'T BE NERVOUS.

I HAVE TO BE STRAIGHT WITH YOU,

YOU ARE ON "UNDERCOVER BOSS."

YOU HAVE TWO NEW SERVERS.

TO MYSTERY DINERS.

IF COVERT CONCEPT CREATES

POPULAR TELEVISION SHOWS AND

ANSWERING THE PRAYERS OF SOME

CHURCH LEADERS.

CONCEPT OF THE SECRET CHURCH

SHOPPER IS NOT ORIGINAL.

THOMAS HAS ADDED MYSTERY

SHOPPER.

THIS FORMER PASTOR GETS CALLS

FROM CHURCHES ACROSS THE COUNTRY

TO SECRETLY CHECK THINGS OUT.

I NEVER KNOW WHEN THE PHONE

RINGS IF IT IS NEW YORK OR

CHICAGO OR LOS ANGELES.

I HAVE THE MOST INTERESTING

QUESTIONS.

REPORTER: HARRISON FINDS MOST

INTERESTING THINGS ON THESE

VISITS.

I HAVE NOTICED POISON SUE

FOUR FOOT TALL.

CHURCHES ARE CLUTTER.

WE DO IT AT OUR HOME, TOO.

I HAVE ENTERED THE WORSHIP

FACILITY AND EXITED AND NO ONE

SPOKEN TO ME.

REPORTER: HIS ATTENTION TO

DETAIL IS TO REACH MORE PEOPLE

WITH THE GOSPEL.

I WANT TO SHARE IT WITH A LOT OF

PEOPLE.

I HAVE TO KEEP THAT TO MYSELF.

REPORTER: PASTOR JOE INVITED

HARRISON.

HE IS NERVOUS.

LIKE YOU HAVE BEEN PUNKED.

I THINK THERE WILL BE A GOOD

RECEPTION.

I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH MY

LEADERS HERE AT THE CHURCH DOING

A LOT OF LEADERSHIP TRAINING,

KIND OF PREPARING THEM WITHOUT

THEM KNOWING.

REPORTER: WHEN THE PASTOR

PEOPLE COME, STAY FOR A WHILE

WE TRY TO SEEK TO REACH OUT.

THERE HAS BEEN A LITTLE BIT OF A

RESOLVING DOOR.

MANY TIMES THE EXPERIENCE

THAT A GUEST WILL HAVE AT A

REPORTER: HARRISON PAYS CLOSE

ATTENTION HOW CHURCH MEET

GUESTS.

DURING THE FELLOWSHIP TIME,

EVERYONE IS SHAKING HANDS, A

WOMAN BEHIND ME LEANS OVER PAST

ME TO SHAKE THE HAND OF THE

WOMAN IN FRONT OF ME.

AND IN THE PROCESS DOESN'T SAY

HELLO, MOVE, YOU ARE IN MY WAY,

ANYTHING.

I FEEL ABANDONED WHILE EVERYONE

ELSE IS SHAKING HANDS.

PHYSICAL THERAPIST.

SAME GOD THAT HEALS US PREPARES

THESE.

IT IS ABOUT DIAGNOSIS.

IT IS ABOUT WHAT IS HAPPENING IN

THAT IS PICTURE THE PASTOR

WE HAVE BLIND SPOTS.

NO MATTER HOW MUCH RESEARCH WE

DO OR SEEK FOR THE GLORY OF GOD

THERE ARE AREAS WE ALL COULD

IMPROVE ON.

EPHRAIM GRAHAM, CBN NEWS,

MASON CITY, ILLINOIS.

GORDAN: TERRY, BE CAREFUL.

YOU MIGHT BE NEXT TO A SECRET

CHURCH SHOPPER.

HE IS ALL ALONE IN THAT PEW.

GORDAN: NOTHING MORE HUMBLING

THAN FINDING OUT WHAT PEOPLE

EXPERIENCE.

YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING

SOMETHING TO HAVE SOMEONE WHO IS

A STRANGER COME IN WHO

SPECIFICALLY EVALUATING YOU AND

SAYING YOU ARE NOT EXACTLY

HITTING THE MARK YOU THOUGHT YOU

[LAUGHTER]

TERRY: UP NEXT, A BANK

ROBBER ONCE THE MOST WANTED

CRIMINALS IN CALIFORNIA.

WALKED IN, TOOK THE GUN FROM

THE WOMAN, TOOK THE MONEY.

I REMEMBER APOLOGIZING ON MY WAY

OUT.

TERRY: THIS WOMAN HIT NINE

BANKS IN ONE YEAR.

YOU'LL SEE HOW THE TENTH HIT

TOOK HER DOWN WHEN WE COME BACK.

úpútúñúp

GORDAN: DANA DIDN'T SET OUT

TO BE A BANK ROBBER.

SHE WAS A COLLEGE STUDENT AND

FELL IN LOVE WITH AN ABUSIVE GUY

AND AVERY ADDICTED DRUG.

LARGEST AMOUNT I STOLE WAS

$44,000.

BY 24 YEARS OLD, DANA BRYANT

WAS A BANK ROBBER, METH ADDICT

AND MOST WANTED CRIMINAL IN

NORTHERN, CALIFORNIA.

I KNEW IF I GOT CAUGHT I

WOULD BE GOING TO PRISON A LONG

TIME.

RAISEED IN A MIDDLE CLASS

HOME, DANA FELT WORTHLESS

BECAUSE SHE NEVER FELT SHE COULD

MEASURE UP TO HER MOTHER'S

EXPECTATIONS.

IN HIGH SCHOOL, SHE FOUND

PARTYING HELPED HER COPE.

I BECAME THE ONE THAT DRANK

THE MOST AT THE PARTY AND MADE A

FOOL OUT OF MYSELF MORE THAN

MOST.

I EVENTUALLY WAS THE ONE GOING

HOME WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

AFTER HIGH SCHOOL, SHE MET A

MAN THAT SHE THOUGHT WE FILL HER

VOID.

SOON SHE FOUND HE HAD A TEMPER.

HE CHOKED ME AND I NEARLY

PASSED OUT.

HER FRIENDS BEGGED HER TO

LEAVE.

STILL, DANA STAYED.

I FELT UGLY.

HE WOULD TELL ME WHAT I WANTED

TO HEAR.

I BECAME ADDICTED TO JUST HIM

MAKING ME FEEL BETTER ABOUT

MYSELF.

EVENTUALLY, DANA HAD A CHILD

WITH HER BOYFRIEND.

SOON AFTERWARD, SHE DEVELOPED

ANOTHER ADDICTION TO METH.

UNABLE TO LOOK AT HER CHILD, SHE

PUT HER DAUGHTER IN HER MOTHER'S

CARE.

SHE HAD LOST HER JOB AND HAD NO

MONEY.

THAT IS WHEN DANA STARTED

ROBBING BANKS.

SHE USED A FAKE GUN AND TOLD THE

TELLERS SOMEONE ELSE WAS FORCING

HER TO ROB THEM.

I WALKED IN, HELD THE GUN TO

THE WOMAN, TOOK THE MONEY AND

REMEMBER APOLOGIZING ON THE WAY

OUT.

THEN EMBOLDENED BY METH, SHE

LEFT HER BOYFRIEND FOR GOOD AND

GAME A GAMBLER.

I CREATED THIS FANTASY I

COULD GET KILLED BY THE POLICE.

IT DIDN'T MATTER ANYMORE.

ALTHOUGH I TRIED TO GET AWAY, IT

IS THE SURVIVAL TO RUN.

I DIDN'T CARE IF THEY KILLED ME

OR NOT.

IN ONE YEAR'S TIME SHE HIT

FINE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS AND

POLICE AND FBI LOOKING FOR HER.

SHE WAS ABOUT TO MAKE HER TENTH

HIT WHEN A BANK EMPLOYEE CALLED

THE POLICE.

ALL THE POLICE SURROUNDED ME.

I REMEMBER GETTING IN BACK OF

THE CAR CUFFED AND BEING

GRATEFUL.

I HAD A COGNITIVE THOUGHT THAT

IT WAS OVER AND I DIDN'T CARE I

WAS GOING TO PRISON.

DANA CHARGED WITH NINE COUNTS

OF BANK ROBBERY AND POSSESSION

OF A WEAPON AND FACED 25 YEARS

IN A WOMAN'S PRISON.

ON SENTENCING DAY THE JUDGE

CALLED HER FORWARD HE SAID A

BAD THING HAPPENED TO A GOOD

GIRL.

HE SAID I AM GOING TO SEND YOU

TO A PROGRAM, I THINK YOU NEED

HELP.

BECAUSE OF THAT, I ONLY GOT A

FIVE-YEAR SENTENCE.

AFTER SHE WENT TO A COURT

ORDERED REHAB PROGRAM, SHE

STARTED SERVING HER SENTENCE.

DANA WENT TO A CHAPEL SERVICE.

THEY WERE RAISING THEIR HANDS

AND WORSHIPPING GOD IN A WAY I

WASN'T USED TO.

IT WAS FOREIGN TO ME.

IT MADE ME FEEL ALIVE.

I COULD SEE THE FREEDOM ON THEIR

FACES.

I RAN TO MY ROOM AND DROPPED TO

MY KNEES.

I ASKED HIM TO SAVE ME.

I WAS SORRY FOR EVERYTHING I

DID.

AND THAT I COULDN'T MAKE IT

THROUGH IT WITHOUT HIM BUT I WAS

GOING TO DIE IF HE DIDN'T SAVE

ME AND HELP ME.

I REMEMBER EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE

CHANGED.

I WAS FREE.

DANA ASKED GOD TO FORGIVE HER

FOR ALL THE THINGS SHE HAD DONE.

I WAS SORRY.

I WAS WRONG, I HURT PEOPLE.

DANA SAYS DURING THAT TIME

GOD TOOK AWAY HER ADDICTION TO

METH AND GAMBLING.

AFTER HER RELEASE SHE MARRIED A

CHRISTIAN MAN AND RAISING HER

DAUGHTER AND TWO OTHER CHILDREN

THEY HAVE A MINISTRY CALLED

CROSSING THE JORDAN.

JESUS CAN HEAL THE INNER PART

OF YOUR BEING.

HE CAN MAKE EVERYTHING NEW.

HE CAN RESTORE ALL THAT WAS

LOST.

AND HEAL THAT PAIN.

HE REALLY CAN MAKE IT ALL NEW.

GORDAN: AND HE CAN MAKE IT

ALL NEW FOR YOU.

HE IS NOT JUST THE GOD OF A

SECOND CHANCE.

HE IS A GOD OF THE THIRD AND

FOURTH CHANCE.

HE SAYS HE IS EVEN WILLING TO GO

SEVEN TIMES 70.

HE'LL SAY TO YOU, BEHOLD, OLD

THINGS ARE PAST AWAY.

ALL THINGS ARE MADE NEW.

YOU.

YOU CAN BE MADE NEW.

EVERYDAY CAN BE A NEW BEGINNING

FOR YOU.

A NEW ADVENTURE WITH THE ONE WHO

CREATED YOU.

NOW, WHAT DID HE CREATE US FOR?

BIBLE IS SPECIFIC.

HE CREATED US TO DO GOOD WORKS

THAT HE PLANNED BEFORE HE EVEN

FOUNDED THE WORLD.

AND THOSE THINGS WILL SATISFY

US.

HE KNOWS ALL ABOUT YOU.

HE KNOWS WHAT YOU HAVE DONE

WRONG.

HE HAS CREATED GOOD THINGS FOR

YOU TO DO.

HE NEVER INTENDED FOR YOU TO GET

ADDICTED, TO GET DEPENDENT.

THAT WASN'T HIS PLAN.

HIS PLAN IS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE

LIFE AND HAVE IT MORE

ABUNDANTLY.

NOW, WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO GET

THIS?

IT TAKES THE SAME THING DANA

DID, SURRENDER.

SAY LORD, NO LONGER MY WILL BE

DONE.

LET YOUR WILL BE DONE.

HOW CAN I FIND THAT?

HOW CAN YOU REVEAL THAT TO ME?

IF YOU'LL DO THAT, HE STARTS THE

PROCESS WHERE HE CHANGES YOU.

HE CHANGES YOU FROM YOUR

INNERMOST BEING SO THE THING

THAT IS YOU USED TO WANT, YOU

DON'T WANT ANYMORE.

AND YOUR NEW DESIRE IS TO FIND

THE THINGS THAT GOD WANTS YOU TO

DO.

FIND THE GREAT ADVENTURE WITH

HIM.

SO IF YOU WANT THAT, DO THE SAME

THING THAT DANA DID.

ASK HIM.

HE SAYS TO YOU CLEARLY, BEHOLD,

I STAND AT THE DOOR AND KNOCK,

IF ANYONE, ANYONE THAT IS YOU

HEAR MY VOICE AND OPEN THE DOOR,

I'LL COME IN.

SO IF THIS IS FOR YOU, IF YOU

WANT A NEW LIFE, A FRESH

START,ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS ASK

HIM.

HE'LL DO THE REST.

SO IF YOU WANT IT, BOW YOUR HEAD

WITH ME.

LET'S PRAY A VERY SIMPLE PRAYER

AND LET GOD DO ALL THE REST.

WHAT HE DID FOR DANA, HE CAN DO

FOR YOU.

LET'S PRAY.

JESUS, THAT'S RIGHT, SAY HIS

NAME.

JESUS, I COME TO YOU AND LORD, I

WANT THIS FRESH START.

I WANT ALL THE OLD THINGS TO

PASS AWAY.

I WANT TO BE MADE NEW SO JESUS

FORGIVE ME OF THE THINGS I HAVE

DONE WRONG.

SET ME FREE FROM THEM AND IF

YOU'LL DO THIS I WANT TO FOLLOW

YOU, I WANT YOUR WILL TO BE DONE

IN MY LIFE.

SO HEAR MY PRAYER, ANSWER IT

TODAY, ANSWER IT NOW FOR I ASK

IT IN JESUS' NAME.

FATHER, FOR THOSE THAT JUST

PRAYED, I ASKED FOR A BAPTISM IN

YOUR LOVE.

I ASK THAT YOU SURROUND THEM AND

FILL THEM TO OVERFLOWING.

LET THEM KNOW THEIR PRAYER HAS

BEEN HEARD AND HAS BEEN

ANSWERED.

WE ASK IT ALL IN JESUS' NAME.

IF YOU PRAYED WITH ME, THE BIBLE

SAYS THERE IS ONE MORE THING YOU

HAVE TO DO IS CONFESS WITH YOUR

MOUTH YOU SHALL BE SAVED.

MADE IT EASY FOR YOU.

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS PICK UP

THE PHONE AND MAKE A TOLL-FREE

NUMBER 1-800-759-0700.

DO IS SAY I PRAYED, I ASKED

FIRST A YOUNG WOMAN TALKS ABOUT

HER BATTLE WITH LIME DISEASE.

I DIDN'T WALK FOR ALMOST TWO

YEARS.

I LOST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF

WEIGHT.

I HAD SEVERE MAKES, MIGRAINES.

IT WAS A VERY DIFFICULT AND

TERRIFYING SITUATION TO BE IN.

TERRY: WATCH HOW SHE

RECOVERS AGAINST ALL ODDS.

TERRY: MARY ANNE WAS TOLD

HER 10-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER HAD

LIME DISEASE AND HER SICK CHILD

WOULD GET MUCH WORSE BEFORE SHE

GOT ANY BETTER.

SHE WAS DEVASTATED.

BOTH MOTHER AND DAUGHTER BEGAN

TO SATURATE THEMSELVES WITH

SCRIPTURE AND PRAYER AND TODAY

MARY ROSE IS A WALKING MIRACLE.

IN SOME WAYS I WAS TERRIFIED

TODAY.

A VERY DIFFICULT CONCEPT TO

THINK ABOUT

AT

10

YEARS OLD.

MY LITTLE GIRL WAS THE FIRST

ONE OUT AND LAST AT NIGHT WAS

LOSING ENERGY.

I WASN'T AWARE OF ANYTHING GOING

AROUND OR ANY KIND OF A FLU.

LOTS OF HOSPITAL TESTS, LOTS OF

VISIT, WELL WE CAN TELL YOU SHE

DOESN'T HAVE CANCER OR MUSCULAR

DYSTROPHY.

IN THE MEANTIME SICKER AND

LOSING WEIGHT.

TOOK NINE MONTHS TO RECEIVE A

DIAGNOSIS.

DOCTOR SAID IT IS YOU KNOW, A

CONFIRMATION OF WHAT I WAS

THINKING AND UM, SHE HAS LIME

DISEASE.

IT IS PRETTY MUCH THROUGHOUT HER

BODY.

I REMEMBER HIM PATTING MY HAND

AND SAYING THINGS WILL GET WORSE

BEFORE THEY GET BETTER.

AT TEN YEARS OLD I DIDN'T

KNOW WHAT WORSE WAS.

BY THAT POINT I WASN'T ABLE TO

WALK ON MY OWN.

IN MY MIND WORSE WAS LIKE DEATH.

THEY HAD TO PUT A PICK LINE

IN HER ARM IN ORDER TO GIVE HER

IV MEDS.

HERE SHE WAS ALREADY SICK AND

GETTING SICKER FROM THE

MEDICINE.

I DIDN'T WALK FOR ALMOST TWO

YEARS.

I LOST A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF

WEIGHT.

I HAD PRETTY SEVERE HEADACHES

AND MIGRAINING THROUGHOUT THE

DAYS.

IT WAS A VERY DIFFICULT AND

TERRIFYING SITUATION TO BE IN.

I ASKED MY MOM YOU KNOW, IS

GOD PUNISHING ME, DID I DO

SOMETHING TO MESS UP?

DID I PRAY THE WRONG PRAYER?

I REMEMBER

STOPPING AND HAVING

TO SAY A PRAYER AND SAY LORD,

PLEASE

GIVE

ME THE

YORDZ TO

ENCOURAGE MY DAUGHTER, I AM NOT

QUITE SURE WHAT I AM GOING TO

SAY.

I TURNED AWAY.

WHEN I TURNED BACK TO HER WHAT I

SAID WAS NOPE.

YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING WRONG.

BE ENCOURAGED WITH THAT.

GOD DOESN'T GIVE DISEASE.

THAT IS NOT HIS CHARACTER.

I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GIVE YOU

A LOT OF THE ANSWERS THAT YOU

WANT, BUT WHAT I DO KNOW, MARY

ROSE, IS THAT IS STILL GOOD.

MY MOM AND I WOULD HAVE TIME

IN THE AFTERNOON WHERE WE WOULD

PRAY.

IN THE MORNING, HER READING

SCRIPTURES FROM THE BIBLE.

I REMEMBER PRAYING AND ASKING

GOD HOW DO I ENCOURAGE HER?

SHE REALLY NEEDED ENCOURAGEMENT.

ONE DAY I STARTED READING PSALM

23 OUT LOUD, SHE SAID I LIKE

THAT, MOM.

THAT BRINGS ME HOPE.

SO THAT BECAME ONE OF OUR

FAVORITE SCRIPTURES TO READ.

HE RESTORES MY SOUL.

GUIDES ME IN THE PATH OF

RIGHTEOUSNESS FOR HIS NAME SAKE.

EVEN THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE

VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I

WILL FEAR NO EVIL, FOR YOU ARE

WITH ME.

I BEGAN TO PLACE MY TRUST IN

GOD AND KNOW HE WAS THERE AND I

WAS GOING TO HOLD ON TO HIM.

I DID THAT, SLOWLY, MY HEADACHES

WOULD DECREASE OR INTRODUCE NEW

FOODS INTO MY DIET.

WHEN MY PHYSICAL THERAPIST TOLD

ME I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO WALK

AGAIN --

I REMEMBER MARY ROSE SAYING

REALLY?

I AM 11 YEARS OLD, OBVIOUSLY,

YOU DON'T KNOW MY GOD.

LITERALLY, THOSE WERE HER WORDS.

THAT WAS A DAY THAT GOD USED

TO FUEL THAT HE WAS BIGGER.

TO PUSH,

TO GET

THE EXERCISES

DONE

WHEN

SHE COULDN'T MOVE

AND

WE HAD TO DO THEM FOR HER.

AS WE STARTED TO GAIN STRENGTH.

IT WAS HARD AND

PAINFUL.

THAT TOOK ME SIX WEEKS OR SO,

I PRACTICED STANDING.

I TOOK MY FIRST STEPS.

GOD SAID KEEP YOUR FOCUS ON

ME.

KEEP PUSHING FORWARD AND FOCUS

ON ME, I WILL BE YOUR HOPE.

EVENTUALLY I GOT TO THE POINT

WHERE I COULD DO A STATIONARY

BIKE, TREADMILL AND NOW I DO AN

ELLIPTICAL.

I HAD TO LEARN EATING AND EATING

WELL.

FROM THE TIME OF THE

DIAGNOSIS UNTIL SHE WAS ABLE TO

FUNCTION ON HER OWN WAS CLOSER

TO A FIVE-YEAR PERIOD.

GOD HAS DEFINITELY HEALED ME.

THERE IS NO MAN MADE CURE FOR

LIME.

THAT IS WHAT I CLAIM EVERYDAY.

EVERYBODY OFF ANTIBIOTICS FOR

THREE YEARS.

GOD HAS JUST, GOD HAS DONE

AMAZING WORK IN MY LIFE.

I AM DOING BETTER HEALTH WISE

THAN I

HAVE BEEN EVER.

THAT IS BECAUSE OF WHAT GOD HAS

DONE AND THE HEALING HE HAS

GIVEN ME.

TERRY: AMAZING STORY.

DIAGNOSIS THAT WAS NOT POSITIVE

IN ANY WAY AND GOD TOUCHED HER

LIFE AND RESTORED HER.

ALONG THE WAY TAUGHT HER THINGS

ABOUT HIMSELF, ABOUT HIS

CHARACTER, ABOUT HIS LOVE, ABOUT

HIS GRACE.

WE WANT TO PRAY FOR YOU TODAY.

WE WANT TO ENCOURAGE YOU AS YOU

HEAR MARY ROSE'S STORY, WE WANT

YOU TO KNOW GOD HEARS YOUR

CRIES, HE IS ALMOST IN YOUR

TOMORROW.

YOU

DON'T

NEED TO BE

ANXIOUS FOR

ANYTHING.

LET'S HEAR REPORTS.

THIS IS AN AMAZING STORY IN

1969, SYLVESTER WHO LIVES IN

JACKSONVILLE, FLORIDA CONTRACTED

HEPATITIS.

OVER THE YEARS THE INFECTION

SPREAD CAUSING CIRRHOSIS.

HE EXPERIENCED A GREAT DEAL OF

SWEATING AND PAIN.

HE HAD THOUGHTS OF SUICIDE.

LAST NOVEMBER, SYLVESTER WAS

WATCHING THE PROGRAM, HE HEARD

GORDAN SAID IF YOU NEED HEALING

N AN ACT OF FAITH, LAY YOUR HAND

ON THAT AREA OF THE BODY THAT

NEEDS HEALING.

SAY I BELIEVE IN JESUS, I

BELIEVE BY HIS STRIPES I AM

HEALED AND ACT IT.

SYLVESTER LAID HIS HANDS ON HIS

STOMACH, HE FELT NOTHING HAPPEN

RIGHT THEN, BUT THE NEXT MONTH,

DOCTORS DID A BIOPSY TO

DETERMINE IF HE WAS IN THE LAST

STAGES OF LIVER FAILURE, DOCTORS

FOUND A FULLY FUNCTIONING LIVER.

DOCTORS SAID THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE.

THEY FOUND A FULLY FUNCTIONING

LIVE THIS YEAR.

GORDAN: THAT IS A MIRACLE.

HEPATITIS THERE IS NO CURE FOR

THAT.

THERE IS A CU CURE IN JESUS.

TIMES YOU GET THIS WONDERFUL

FEELING AND YOU KNOW THERE IS NO

EVIDENCE.

YOU JUST WAKE UP ONE DAY AND

SUDDENLY YOU ARE HEALED.

HOW DID IT HAPPEN?

IT HAPPENED BY CLAIMING BY HIS

STRIPES I AM HEALED.

NOT HAVING IT BE SOME EMPTY

LET'S RECITE THE WORDS.

KAREN WHO WAS A BELIEVER, LIVES

HERE IN CHESAPEAKE, VIRGINIA SHE

HAD SHARP PAIN FOR 20 YEARS,

SEVERAL DOCTORS DIAGNOSED A

MEDICAL CONDITION, ONE RIB

TEMPORARILY SLIDES OVER THE

OTHER CREATING A PAIN.

CAN'T IMAGINE THAT.

THEY TOLD HER THERE WAS NO CURE.

LAST JULY, KAREN WATCHING "THE

700 CLUB," TERRY, YOU HAD A WORD

OF KNOWLEDGE, SOMEONE BEING

HEALED OF A CONDITION INVOLVING

THE RIBS.

WHEN KAREN HEARD RIBS SHE SAID I

AM CLAIMING THAT FOR MYSELF.

SHE HAS BEEN ABLE TO MOVE FREELY

NO PAIN SINCE.

TERRY: PRAISE GOD.

GORDAN: WHAT THEY DID IS

CLAIMED A BIBLE VERSE.

SOME 23.

THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD, HE

PROVIDES FOR ME.

HE MAKES ME LIE DOWN IN GREEN

PASTORS AND LEADS ME BESIDE

STILL WATERS.

HE ANOINTS MY HEAD WITH OIL.

LET HIM DO THAT FOR YOU RIGHT

NOW.

LET HIM ANOINT YOU AND REALIZE

FAITH ITSELF IS A GIFT FROM HIM.

IT IS NOT SOMETHING WE DRUM UP.

WHEN WE LOOK TO JESUS HE IS THE

AUTHOR AND THE FINISHER OF OUR

FAITH.

WHEN WE UNDERSTAND THAT GOD HAS

GIVEN TO EACH ONE OF US A

MEASURE OF FAITH.

WHEN WE UNDERSTAND THAT, WE CAN

PRAY THAT SAME WONDERFUL PRAYER,

LORD, I BELIEVE, HELP MY

UNBELIEF SO THAT UNBELIEF IS NO

LONGER IN YOU.

AND ALL THAT IS LEFT IS THE

BELIEF, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED

WITH THAT YOUNG GIRL WHO HAD

THAT TERRIBLE DIAGNOSIS OF LIME

DISEASE.

A DOCTOR TELLING HER THERE IS NO

CURE.

SHE SAYS MY GOD IS CREATOR.

I AM GOING TO GET THAT UNBELIEF

OUT.

EVERYDAY I AM GOING TO READ THIS

PSALM AND GLORIFY HIM AND PRAISE

HIM FOR EACH INCREMENTAL CHANGE.

SOMETIMES MIRACLES HAPPEN

INSTANDLY, SOMETIMES OVER TIME.

THEY HAPPEN AND THEY HAPPEN

BECAUSE WE LOOK TO JESUS AND LET

HIM DO THE WONDERFUL WORK IN US.

LET'S ASK HIM TO ANOINT YOU WITH

OIL AND BELIEVE AND DO THE SAME

THING LET'S ASK BELIEVING.

IN AN ACT OF FAITH, LAY YOUR

HAND ON AN AREA OF THE BODY THAT

NEEDS HEALING, THERE ARE PEOPLE

AROUND YOU, ASK THEM TO COME LAY

HANDS ON YOU.

LET'S BELIEVE GOD AND JESUS SAYS

IF TWO OR MORE AGREE TOUCHING

ANYTHING, SO TERRY AND I WILL

AGREE, YOU AGREE.

TOGETHER LET'S TOUCH, LET'S LAY

HANDS ON YOU.

LET'S LET GOD DO ALL THE REST.

LET'S PRAY.

LORD, WE

JUST

COME

INTO

AGREEMENT.

WE ASK THAT YOU WOULD ANOINT OUR

HEADS WITH OIL.

AND THAT YOUR ANOINTING WOULD

FLOW DOWN.

THERE WOULD BE AN ABUNDANCE.

WE WOULD BE JUST DRENCHED.

WE WOULD FLOW DOWN, DRENCHING US

WITH THE ANOINTING OF YOUR LOVE,

YOUR GRACE AND YOUR HEALING.

WE COME TOGETHER IN AGREEMENT

AND AS PEOPLE ARE LAYING HANDS

ON THE AREA OF THE BODY THAT

NEEDS HEALING, WE AGREE WITH

THEM AND TOGETHER WE SAY BY THE

STRIPES OF JESUS CHRIST, I AM

HEALED.

AND I AM MADE WHOLE NOW BY THE

SACRIFICE THAT WAS GIVEN FOR ME.

I ENTER INTO THAT HEALING NOW IN

JESUS' NAME.

THERE IS SOMEONE YOU ARE

EXPERIENCING SHARP PAINS IN YOUR

RIGHT KNEE AND GOD HAS

JUST

HEALED YOU.

HE IS ABLE TO DO WHAT THE

DOCTORS SAY CAN'T BE DONE.

HE IS ABLE TO REGROW

CARTILAGE,

ABLE TO KNIT TOGETHER LIGAMENTS

AND RESTORE YOU NOW IN JESUS'

NAME.

IN AN ACT OF FAITH, WHAT YOU

COULD NOT DO BEFORE, TRY IT NOW

AND SEE WHAT GOD HAS DONE FOR

YOU.

TERRY?

TERRY: SOMEONE ELSE, YOU

HAVE A COMPROMISED HEARING

CONDITION, YOU ARE NOT TOTALLY

DEAF.

EVERYTHING THE FAR AWAY AND

HOLLOW SOUNDING.

YOU ARE GOING TO HEAR A POP AND

HEARING TOTALLY RESTORED.

I DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE OR

WHERE YOU ARE.

YOU ARE A CATHOLIC, YOU WEAR A

THING UNDER YOUR CLOTHES A

SCAPULA, YOU ARE PRAYING FOR

SOMETHING VERY DESPERATE TO GOD.

HE HAS HEARD YOUR PRAYER AND YOU

ARE BEING HEALED BY

GOD, RECEIVE

IT.

GORDAN: SOMEONE BROKEN RIGHT

SHOULDER BLADE, YOU ARE NOT

ASKING.

GOD IS TAKING NOTICE OF YOU NOW

AND TELLING YOU YOU ARE HEALED.

YOU ARE RESTORED.

BEGIN TO MOVE THAT SHOULDER AND

REALIZE, NO MORE PAIN, NO MORE

ACHE.

SOMEONE ELSE WITH AMISALIGNED

SPINE, CURVATURE BETWEEN THE

SHOULDERS, GOD IS HEALING YOU

AND SETTING YOU FREE FROM ALL OF

THAT.

IN JESUS' NAME, BE TOUCHED.

TERRY: .

GORDAN: LORD, WE THANK YOU

FOR YOU ARE THE HEALER.

IT IS YOUR NAME, IT IS YOUR

NATURE.

WE DON'T HAVE TO BEG YOU.

WE DON'T HAVE TO CONVINCE YOU.

YOU CAN'T DENY YOURSELF, THAT IS

WHO YOU ARE.

WHEN WE RECEIVE YOU, WE RECEIVE

THE ANSWER TO ALL OUR PRAYERS.

DO IT NOW, FOR WE ASK IT ALL IN

JESUS' NAME.

AMEN.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN TOUCHED BY GOD,

WE WANT TO REJOICE IN YOUR GOOD

YOU.

PRIVILEGE.

WE'LL BE BACK WITH BRING IT ON

QUESTIONS AND

ANSWERS

HOPEFULLY

RIGHT AFTER THIS.

TERRY: WE WANT TO TAKE TIME

FOR E-MAIL QUESTIONS, GORDAN,

WHY IS IT GOD ORDAINED KINGS AND

PRINCES TO RULE AND ALLOWS

RULERS TO LIE, BE DECEPTIVE AND

TEAR A NATION DOWN?

WHAT CAN CHRISTIANS DO WHEN WE

ARE AFFECTED LIKE THE UNSAVED?

GORDAN: UNFORTUNATELY WHEN

JUDGMENT COMES IT COMES ON THE

RIGHTEOUS AND UNRIGHTEOUS.

LOOK AT THE LIFE OF JEREMIAH.

HE IS WARNING THEM OF THE COMING

INVASION OF THE BABYLONIANS.

FOR HIS TROUBLE, HE IS THROWN

INTO A PIT AND PEOPLE WANT TO

KILL HIM.

THEY IGNORE HIS WARNINGS.

EVEN AFTER JERUSALEM IS SACKED

BY THE BABYLONIANS, HE GIVES

PEOPLE ANOTHER PROPHESY, GOD

WANTS US TO STAY HERE AGAINST

HIS WILL.

LOOK AT THE STORIES OF THE GREAT

PROPHETS AND APOSTLES, IT IS NOT

SOME DREAM LIFE THEY ARE HAVING.

THEY ARE GOING THROUGH

PERSECUTION, GOING THROUGH

TROUBLE.

THAT IS A PROMISE THAT WE HAVE

FROM JESUS.

NOW, SPECIFICALLY, WHAT IS GOING

ON IF YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT

OUR GOVERNMENT, HERE IS ONE OF

THE CURSES PUT ON ISRAEL BEFORE

THE BAB LOW -- BABYLONIANS, I

WILL GIVE CHILDREN TO BE THEIR

PRINCES AND BABES SHALL RULE

OVER THEM.

THAT IS ONE OF THE CONSEQUENCES

WHEN A LAND IS TURNED OVER TO

SIN.

BEFORE THE VERSE, TALK ABOUT

ADULTERY AND MURDER GOING ON IN

ISRAEL, GOD SAID AS A RESULT, I

WILL GIVE BABES TO RULE OVER

YOU.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE CHILDISH

BEHAVIOR, THE NAME CALLING GOING

ON, I REFUSE TO NEGOTIATE WITH

YOU, THE ULT MAIMATUMS GOING FORTH,

A GOVERNMENT WILLING TO

NEGOTIATE WITH IRAN BUT NOT ONE

ANOTHER.

WE ARE UNDER THAT KIND OF RULE.

THERE IS A ADAGE FOR EVERY

DEMOCRACY, YOU GET THE

GOVERNMENT YOU DESERVE.

WE ELECTED THESE GUYS.

YOU GET THE GOVERNMENT YOU

DESERVE.

I WOULD ENCOURAGE ALL OF US.

IT IS TIME FOR US TO PRAY.

EVEN MORE THAN PRAYER, IT IS

TIME FOR US TO REPENT AND TO

TURN ONCE AGAIN.

WITHOUT GOD THERE IS NO HOPE.

TIME FOR ONE MORE.

TERRY: MY HEAD TALKS TO GOD

ALL DAY, WHEN I BEG FOR HELP, I

GO TO JESUS.

I CAN'T HEAR, FEEL, OR SEE MY

GOD THAT IS SUREE.

GORDAN: SUREE, KEEP IN MIND

THIS, I AM SORRY WHAT HAPPENED

WITH YOUR DAD.

SO IS GOD.

HE DIDN'T INTEND THAT TO BE.

JOHN 3:16, FOR GOD SO LOVED THE

WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN

SON.

THE REASON JESUS IS THERE IS

BECAUSE GOD LOVES YOU.

LET THAT INFORM YOU AND LET THAT

CHANGE YOUR HEART.

WE LEAVE YOU TODAY WITH WORDS

FROM JOB, HE PERFORMS COUNTLESS

MIRACLES, GOD BLESS YOU.

WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.
