Gordon: SHE'S A
MISSIONARY COMPELLED BY
LOVE.
ANYONE, ANYONE THAT
DISCOVERS WHO HE IS WOULD
GIVE EVERYTHING.
HE'S THE PEARL.
Gordon: HOW HEIDI BAKER
IS CHANGING ONE OF THE
POOREST COUNTRIES IN THE
WORLD ON TODAY'S "700 CLUB
INTERACTIVE."
ON "700 CLUB INTERACTIVE,"
WE USE TECHNOLOGY TO PRAY
FOR EACH OTHER AND EXPLORE
TOPICS THAT MATTER TO YOU.
WATCH WHAT GOD IS DOING IN
THE WORLD TODAY.
Gordon: WELL, WELCOME
TO THE PROGRAM.
WEEKS AFTER GETTING MARRIED,
HEIDI BAKER LEFT THE CRTS OF
COMFORTS OF HER HOME TO
BECOME A MISSIONARY WITH HER
HUSBAND.
TOGETHER THEY'VE LIVED IN
INDONESIA, THE U.K. AND HONG
KONG, BEFORE FINALLY
SETTLING INTO MOZAMBIQUE,
ONE OF THE POOREST COUNTRIES
IN THE WORLD.
HERE IS WHY.
GOD IS LOOKING FOR
FRIENDS.
HIDHEIDI'S LIFE IS
INFECTIOUS.
IT'S AN ONGOING EXPERIENCE
WITH DIFFERENT NUANCES EVERY
SINGLE DAY.
ANYONE -- ANYONE THAT
DISCOVERS WHO HE IS WOULD
GIVE EVERYTHING.
HE IS THE PEARL.
HAHE IS THE LOVER OF OUR
SOUL.
HE IS BEAUTY ITSELF.
Reporter: WITH BRUTE
FORCE.
THE PORTUGUESE TRIED TO STOP
THE LIBERATION FONT.
THE PORTUGUESE RETALIATE
WITH HORRIFYING MESSAGES.
THIS IS WAR-TORN, POVERTY
STRICKEN.
THE COUNTRY WAS BOMBED OUT
WITH LANDMINES.
EVERYWHERE.
IT WAS THE PERFECT PLACE FOR
THE BAKERS TO LAND.
BUT MOST PEOPLE DON'T
KNOW THE SACRIFICE AND THE
PRICE THAT ROLAND AND HEIDI
HAVE PAID THROUGH THE
YEARS.
AFRICA SHALL BE SAVED, IN
THE NAME OF JESUS.
FROM CAPE TOWN TO CAIRO.
NOT BY MIGHT, NOR BY
POWER, BUT BY MY SPIRIT SAYS
THE LORD.
WILL YOU FULFILL YOUR
DESTINY?
YOU STAND UP.
BY BECOMING NOTHING, YOU
BECOME HIM.
MY MOM, SHE IS AMAZING.
SHE NEVER LEFT MOZAMBIQUE.
THE JOY COMES FROM MY
UNION WITH HIM.
THE REAL, TANGIBLE, POWERFUL
THING WE CALL LIFE.
IT'S THE ONLY KIND OF OF
LIFE THERE REALLY IS.
*
* COME SIGN YOUR NAME
Gordon: JOINING US NOW
IS HEIDI BAKER.
AND, HEIDI, WELCOME BACK TO
"700 CLUB INTERACTIVE."
IT'S GREAT TO HAVE YOU.
THANK YOU.
Gordon: TELL US ABOUT
THIS MOVIE, "COMPELLED BY
LOVE."
WELL, WE STARTED ABOUT
SEVEN YEARS AGO.
SOMEONE CAME AND ASKED COULD
THEY DO A MOVIE.
Gordon: SEVEN YEARS
AGO?
SEVEN YEARS AGO.
AND WE PRAYED ABOUT IT, AND
IT WAS KIND OF SCARY BECAUSE
YOU THINK IF THEY'RE GOING
TO DO A MOVIE THAT HAS TO DO
WITH YOUR LIFE, YOU WOULD
RATHER BE ON THE OTHER SIDE
ALREADY.
YOU RATHER BE IN HEAVEN AND
HAVE THEM DO IT LATER.
I'M SERIOUS, I REALLY SOUGHT
THE LORD.
AND THOUGHT TO GO AHEAD AND
LET THEM SHOW IT.
IF IT WOULD BRING PEOPLE
INTO IP INTIMACY AND CAUSE
THEM TO GIVE THEIR LIVES
AWAY, THAT WAS WORTH IT.
Gordon: IT SEEMS TO BE
THE FUNDAMENTAL MESSAGE THAT
BY GIVING YOUR LIFE AWAY,
YOU GET IT.
UH-HUH.
YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT ALL TO
FIND LIFE, TO FIND DESTINY,
TO FIND MEANING.
SO WE STARTED THIS PROJECT,
OR WE ALLOWED IT TO BE
STARTED.
AND THEN WE JUST COULDN'T
QUITE FINISH IT.
AND MY SPIRITUAL DAUGHTER
HAD A PASSION ON HER HEART.
SHE HAD NEVER DONE A
DOCUMENTARY.
SHE HAD DONE MEDIA, BUT SHE
JUST SAID, I CAN DO IT.
I CAN FINISH IT.
AND BECAUSE I LOVE HER SO
MUCH, I SAID, GO FOR IT.
NOT KNOWING WHAT WOULD COME
OUT OF IT.
AND I THINK THE LORD JUST
BREATHED ON HER AND HER
TEAM.
Gordon: IT'S
INSPIRING.
I WAS WATCHING IT, GOING,
WOW, THIS IS REALLY GOOD.
THE SCORE IS PERFECT.
THE EDITING IS BEAUTIFUL.
ALL OF THE SHOTS ARE GREAT.
FROM WHEN WE MET EARLIER,
ONE OF MY FIRST QUESTIONS
WAS, WHO DID IT?
AND YOU SAID IT WAS MY
SPIRITUAL FATHER, AND SHE
HAS BEEN INSPIRED BY GOD
WITH THE CREATIVITY TO MAKE
IT HAPPEN.
AND IT IS WONDERFUL.
IT SHOWED ME SOME THINGS
ABOUT YOU THAT I DIDN'T
KNOW.
WHAT ARE THOSE THINGS?
Gordon: I DIDN'T KNOW
THAT YOU FELL OUT ON TO THE
ANOINTING AT YOUR FIRST
COMMUNION IN AN EPISCOPAL
CHURCH AT AGE 12.
AND NOBODY KNEW WHAT HAD
HAPPENED TO YOU, INCLUDING
YOU.
RIGHT.
THEY CARRIED ME OUT.
THE PRIEST WAS AS SHOCKED AS
ANYONE.
[LAUGHTER]
Gordon: IN THE MIDDLE
OF THIS CHURCH -- I IMAGINE
IN THAT TRADITION THEY WOULD
SAY YOU HAD THE BUTIFIC
VISION, AND THEY WOULD HAVE
HISTORICAL REFERENCE FOR
THAT.
HE ACTUALLY WENT TO HIS
HISTORY BOOKS, BECAUSE MY
MOTHER SAID, WHAT HAPPENED?
WHY DID SHE FAINT?
AND HE SAID, SHE WAS
OVERCOME, OVERWHELMED.
Gordon: AND THAT
HAPPENED TO YOU AGAIN --
YES,.
Gordon: LOW PRESSURE
LATER -- LATER, AS A
TEENAGER.
HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?
I WAS ON A FAST --
Gordon: A TEENAGER?
AS A TEENAGER.
I WAS ON AN INDIAN
RESERVATION, AND A NAVAJO
PREACHER LED ME TO THE
LORD.
I WAS AND AMERICAN FIELD
STUDENT, AND HAD ALREADY
BEEN IN SWITZERLAND FOR
YEARS --
Gordon: BACK UP.
MOST TEENAGERS DON'T GO TO
NAVAJO RESERVATIONS TO DO
RELIEF WORK.
WHAT STARTED THAT?
SWITZERLAND STARTED
THAT.
I WAS A YEAR IN SWITZERLAND,
STUDYING LANGUAGE AND
BALLET.
AND I REALLY REALIZED I'M
CALLED FOR OTHER CULTURES.
I'M CALLED
CROSS-CULTURALLY.
BEFORE I'M BORN AGAIN I'M
CALLED CROSS-CULTURAL.
SO I APPLIED AS AN AMERICAN
FIELD STUDENT WHEN I CAME
BACK FROM EUROPE, AND THEY
ACCEPTED ME.
THEY SAID, YOU'VE ALREADY
BEEN OVERSEAS, SO WE NEED TO
SEND YOU DOMESTICALLY.
SO I SAID, SEND ME TO THE
MOST FOREIGN DOMESTIC PLACE
YOU HAD.
AND IT WAS TO THE CHAKTAH
RESERVATION.
AND I WENT TO THIS REVIVAL,
AND IT WAS 500 INDIANS AND
ME.
AND I WAS POWERFULLY BORN
AGAIN, THE ONLY ONE THAT
NIGHT.
THIS FULL-BLOODED NAVAJO WAS
PREACHING.
THE NEXT NIGHT I WAS TAKEN
TO A PENTECOSTAL HOLINESS
CHURCH AND THEY TAUGHT ME TO
FAST.
SO HERE IS MY VISION, FIVE
MONTHS LATER, I'M FASTING
AND PRAYING AND I'M SEEKING
GOD, AND I'M SO HUNGRY FOR
HIM.
EVERYTHING WITHIN ME JUST
ABSOLUTELY GIVEN.
AND DAY FIVE OF THIS FAST
I'M IN THIS LITTLE CHURCH,
AND IT'S A LOUD CHURCH.
AND I'VE JUST GOT MY HANDS
LIFTED UP, AND I'M
WORSHIPPING, OH, JESUS, AND
I'M WORSHIPPING WITH ALL
THAT IS IN ME.
I LOVE TO WORSHIP.
AND SUDDENLY I WAS
SURROUNDED BY THIS WHITE
LIGHT.
AND I COULD NO LONGER HEAR
THE PREACHERS.
I COULDN'T HEAR THE
TAMBOURINES.
I CAPITO COULDN'T HEAR THE
PEPIANOS ON EITHER SIDE.
I COULD ONLY HEAR THE LORD.
AND I'VE BEEN PREACHING 38
YEARS, AND I'VE ONLY HEARD
THE AUDIBLE, EXTERNAL VOICE
OF GOD ONE TIME.
AND IN THIS VISION, HE SAID,
YOU'RE CALLED TO BE A
MINISTER AND A MISSIONARY.
TO GO TO AFRICA, ASIA, AND
ENGLAND.
AND JESUS CAME TO ME,
SERIOUSLY CAME TO ME, KISSED
MY LEFT HAND, AND OIL RAN
DOWN MY ARM.
AND HE SAID, YOU'RE TO BE
MARRIED TO ME.
ALL OF US THAT LOVE HIM --
ALL OF US ARE TO BE MARRIED
TO HIM.
I WAS COMPLETELY, COMPLETELY
UTTERLY WRAPPED.
I JUST FELL IN LOVE.
I WAS SO IN LOVE.
I FELL SO IN LOVE WITH HIM,
I'LL FOLLOW HIM ANYWHERE.
I'LL GO ANYWHERE.
I'LL DO ANYTHING.
HE CAN CHANGE THE PLAN.
HE CAN REDIRECT ME.
HE WON MY HEART.
HE WON MY HEART.
AND I'M FOREVER HIS.
Gordon: YOU'VE PAID A
COST TO FOLLOW HIM.
I MEAN, THERE IS THE VISION
AND THE GLORY OF THAT.
BUT THEN WHEN YOU WALK IT
OUT -- PARTICULARLY, LET'S
SAY THE SLUMS OF MOZAMBIQUE,
TRYING TO RESCUE CHILDREN
THAT HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY
ABUSED, THAT HAVE BEEN --
ALL KINDS OF HORRIFIC THINGS
HAPPENING TO THEM.
DO YOU STILL HAVE THAT GLORY
IN THAT MOMENT?
THAT'S THE EASIEST TIME.
BEING IN THE SLUMS, BEING IN
THE BUSH, THAT'S MY EASIEST
TIME.
Gordon: WHEN IS THE
HARDEST TIME?
TRAVELLING TO THE WESTERN
WORLD.
Gordon: SO YOU GET
CULTURE SHOCK COMING BACK
HERE?
I USED TO GET SEVERE
CULTURE SHOCK.
BUT ONCE I CAME TO TERMS
WITH THE FACT THAT GOD HAD
CALLED ME TO TRAVEL A THIRD
OF MY LIFE -- ONE DAY I WAS
FUSSING AT HIM.
I USED TO CRY, GETTING ON
THE PLANES, WHEN I HAD TO
LEAVE MY CHILDREN IN
MOZAMBIQUE.
AND HE SAID, I'VE CALLED YOU
TO THIS.
AND I WANT YOU TO BE JOYFUL
ABOUT IT.
I FIND IT VERY EASY TO HOLD
THE CORE.
VERY EASY TO BRING THE
BROKEN INTO THE FATHER'S
HEART.
BUT SOMETIMES IN THE FIRST
WORLD, EASTERN WORLD, OR THE
WESTERN WORLD, PEOPLE DON'T
UNDERSTAND HOW MUCH THEY'RE
IN NEED OF GOD.
THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS
DESPERATION.
EIN MY WORLD, PEOPLE KNOW
THEY'RE HUNGRY.
THEY KNOW THEY'RE IN RAGS.
THEY KNOW THEY'RE BLIND.
THEY KNOW WHO THEY ARE.
BUT IN YOUR COUNTRY, THEY
OFTEN FORGET THEIR NEED OF
GOD.
Gordon: OUR COUNTRY?
OUR COUNTRY.
I'M MOZAMBIQUEAN NOW, BUT I
STILL HOLD AN AMERICAN
PASSPORT, AND I PRAY FOR
AMERICA ALL OF THE TIME.
I PRAY FOR A HOLY HUNGER TO
RISE UP, FOR PEOPLE TO KNOW
THEIR NEED OF GOD.
SUFFERING, THOUGH, HAS ALSO
COME.
BEING STONED OR BEATEN,
THROWN IN JAIL, SHIP
WRECKED, SLANDERED -- THOSE
THINGS HURT.
OR HAVING ONE OF YOUR
CHILDREN FALL.
Gordon: HAVE YOU
LEARNED HOW TO COUNT ALL OF
THAT JOY?
I REALLY HAVE.
I'M NOT BEING RELIGIOUS.
I REALLY HAVE.
I DO COUNT IT ALL JOY.
I EVEN COUNT IT ALL JOY TO
COME HERE, TO COME TO THE
WEST, TO COME TO THE EAST.
HE HAS CAPTURED MY HEART,
AND SO NOW WHEREVER HE SENDS
ME, I FEEL HIS JOY.
YOU THINK, WELL, WHY ARE YOU
CRYING?
I FEEL HIS JOY IN THE MIDST
OF EVERYTHING.
I DO.
BECAUSE I'M CLINGING TO
HIM.
IT'S INTIMACY WITH HIM THAT
BRINGS YOU JOY.
Gordon: WHEN YOU COME
HERE, AND SPECIFICALLY WHEN
YOU'RE MINISTERING HERE, HOW
DO YOU BREAKTHROUGH THE
COMPLACENCY?
I'VE HAD THE REVERSE CULTURE
SHOCK, LIVING IN MANILA,
COMING BACK AND GOING, WOW,
I THOUGHT I KNEW THIS PLACE,
BUT I DIDN'T.
AT LEAST I HAVE NEW EYES.
FOR ME, SOMETIMES IT IS THE
COMPLACENCY.
IT IS LIKE ONE OF THE
LETTERS TO THE CHURCHES IN
REVELATION WAS WRITTEN FOR
AMERICA.
WE'VE GOTTEN SATISFIED.
WE THINK WE KNOW.
AND WE DON'T KNOW THAT WE'RE
ACTUALLY RETC RETCHED, POOR
AND BLIND.
AND WE THINK WE'RE OKAY, AND
WE'RE NOT.
HOW DO YOU BREAKTHROUGH
THAT?
FOR ONE, BEING HUNGRY AS
A CHRISTIAN IS DIFFERENT
THAN BEING HUNGRY IN THE
NATURAL.
BECAUSE IN THE NATURAL, THE
MORE YOU EAT, THE FULLER YOU
ARE.
SO YOU THINK, WESTERN
CULTURE, THEY'RE ALREADY
FULL OF NATURAL FOOD.
THEY HAVE AS MUCH FOOD AS
THEY COULD POSSIBLY WANT.
EVEN THE POOR IN THIS
COUNTRY HAVE FOOD.
SO THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE
PHYSICALLY STARVING.
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE
PHYSICALLY DESPERATE.
SO HOW DO YOU CAUSE A PEOPLE
WHO ARE WELL-FED TO BE
HUNGRY FOR GOD?
WHEN GOD FEEDS YOU, JESUS --
WHEN GOD FEEDS YOU, SWEET
JESUS, THE BODY, THE BREAD
AND THE BLOOD OF JESUS, YOU
ACTUALLY HAVE MORE HUNGER.
WHEN YOU EAT JESUS, YOU GET
MORE HUNGRY.
YOU LONG AND LONG AND LONG
FOR MORE.
FIRST I SAY, LORD, GO AHEAD
AND LET THEM BE JEALOUS.
LET THEM BE JEALOUS OF THIS
INTIMATE WALK.
LET THEM SEE THEY CAN HAVE
MORE.
I'M JUST A LITTLE WOMAN IN
THE DARK, BUT I'M TELLING
YOU I'M A HUNGRY WOMAN.
AND I EAT JESUS AND DRINK
JESUS EVERY DAY, AND I'M
DESPERATE FOR HIM.
SO I SAY, GOD, GO AHEAD AND
UNDO ME IN FRONT OF
ANYBODY.
UNDO ME.
I'M GOING TO LITERALLY YOU
LET ME TAKE THEM IN TO THE
SECRET PLACE IN PUBLIC.
THAT WAS VERY HARD FOR ME AT
FIRST.
I DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE PEOPLE
INTO MY SECRET PLACE OF
GOD.
BUT NOW IN WORSHIP, IN THE
WESTERN WORLD, I'LL JUST
YIELD MYSELF.
IF I FALL FLAT ON MY FACE IN
THE GLORY AND STAY THERE AND
NEVER GET UP, WHICH HAPPENS
AT TIMES IN MEETINGS, I
DON'T CARE.
I'M THAT YIELDED.
I WANT PEOPLE TO FALL IN
LOVE WITH THE ONE WHO IS ALL
TOGETHER WORTHY, TO GET
HUNGRY FOR HIM.
AND THE MORE YOU EAT JESUS,
THE MORE YOU DRINK JESUS,
THE MORE YOU COMMUNE WITH
HIM, THE MORE YOU HAVE TO
GIVE AWAY FOR THE ONE RIGHT
IN FRONT OF YOU.
WHY DO WE WANT MINISTRIES?
IT'S NO VALUE UNLESS IT IS
OUT OF INTIMATE LOW, SO THEY
CAN FIND OUT WHO HE IS AND
THEY CAN LOVE THE FATHER AND
THEY CAN FEEL LOVE.
SO I JUST STAY DESPERATE,
AND I PRAY IT IS
CONTAGIOUS.
Gordon: IT IS.
YAY!
Gordon: YOU'RE QUITE
INFECTIOUS.
THAT'S EXCITING.
Gordon: AND THAT'S THE
JESUS IN YOU, THE DESIRE OF
ALL NATIONS.
YAY!
Gordon: AND WHEN YOU
SHOW FORTH HIS GLORY, THEN
YOU CREATE THE HUNGER JUST
BY WHAT YOU HAVE.
AND PEOPLE LOOK AT YOU AND
SAY, I WANT THAT.
HOW CAN I GET THAT?
HE'S MY EVERYTHING.
AND I KNOW THE WAY YOU GET
MORE OIL, THE WAY YOU GET
MORE OF HIM, IS HARD FOR THE
WESTERNERS.
IT'S HARD FOR THE
FIRST-WORLD EASTERNERS TO
UNDERSTAND THIS WAY, BUT IT
TAKES TIME.
I JUST GOT COMPLETELY UNDONE
IN A MEETING AND JUST TAKEN
OVER BY HOLY SPIRIT.
AND HE JUST SAID, TIME,
TIME, TIME.
WHAT DOES IT COST?
WE WANT TO BE THE VIRGINS
FULL OF OIL.
WE WANT TO BE THE ONES
READY.
IT TAKES TIME.
THERE ARE NO SHORT CUTS TO
INTIMACY.
YOU CAN'T JUST LET SOMEONE
KNOCK ME OUT.
LET THEM JUST LAY THEIR
HANDS ON ME.
GIVE ME WHAT YOU HAVE.
IT'S TIME.
IT'S TIME AND THE SECRET
PLACE.
IT'S TIME IN COMMUNION.
NOT JUST ONLY BY YOURSELF,
ALONE, BUT TIME IN
COMMUNION.
THAT'S WHY I PRAY IN TONGUES
ALL DAY LONG.
I PRAY IN THE SPIRIT ALL DAY
LONG.
WHEREVER I GO, WHATEVER I'M
DOING, I'M PRAYING IN THE
SPIRIT.
QUIETLY, SO PEOPLE DON'T
LOCK ME UP.
Gordon: DON'T THINK
YOUR NUTS.
YEAH.
BUT I'M PRAYING ALL THE
TIME.
LIKE BREATHING.
Gordon: AND YOU STAY IN
THAT?
I REALLY DO.
I USED TO GET SWIRLED OUT IN
THINGS.
LIKE, THERE WOULD BE A
CRISIS, AND I WOULD HEAR ONE
OF OUR TRUCKS WAS SMASHED,
AND IT HAPPENS ALL OF THE
TIME.
WHEN YOU HAVE HUNDREDS OF
TRUCKS, YOU HAVE ACCIDENTS.
YOU HAVE CHILDREN DYING.
YOU HAVE FRIENDS DYING --
Gordon: ALL OF THE
ADMINISTRATION YOU HAVE TO
DO.
DOES THAT PULL YOU OUT?
I LEARNED TO PRAY IN
TONGUES AS I TEXT.
AS I E-MAIL, I PRAY IN THE
SPIRIT ALMOST ALL OF THE
TIME.
I SPRAY IN THE SPIRIT SO I'M
NOT SWIRLED OUT.
AND I HAD SOME HEALING WHERE
THEY PRAYED FOR MY HEART AND
WHAT ALLOWED ME TO GO INTO
SWIRLS, AND WHAT ALLOWED ME
TO KIND OF LIVE IN CONSTANT
CRISIS MODE, BECAUSE WHEN
YOU WORK WITH THE POOR OR
YOUR TRAVELLING, THERE IS
ALWAYS CRISES.
AND NOW I'VE LEARNED TO STAY
OUT OF THE SWIRL.
I HAD A PICTURE OF HEADLESS
CHICKENS.
AND I SAW A LOT OF PEOPLE
RUNNING AROUND IN THE CHURCH
IN THIS SWIRL.
AND THERE WERE CHICKENS.
FIRST THEY HAD THEIR HEADS
RUNNING AROUND IN THE DUST,
AND THEN THEIR HEADS CAME
OFF.
JESUS IS OUR HEAD, AND THEY
DIDN'T KNOW THEIR HEADS WERE
GONE.
CHICKENS CAN RUN AROUND
WITHOUT THEIR HEADS.
AND THE LORD SHOWED ME THESE
HEADLESS CHICKENS.
AND HE SAID, COME UP HERE.
I WANT YOU TO CALL THEM UP
HERE.
AND WE WENT UP, AND WE WERE
LIKE EAGLES.
AND WE WERE STRETCHED OUT,
AND WE COULD SEE.
AND EVEN THOUGH THE DUST
STORM IS HAPPENING -- WE
HAVE PEOPLE BEING MARTYRED,
WE HAVE PEOPLE BEING
TORTURED, WE HAVE SEVERE
SITUATIONS, STORMS AND
FLOODS AND FAMINES AND
ADMEN, AND ALL OF THE THINGS
YOU HAVE -- CHILDREN IN THE
SEX TRADE INDUSTRY BEING
SOLD FOR $5.
WE HAVE TRAGEDY, BUT WHEN
YOU LIVE NOT AS A CHICKEN,
NOT AFRAID, BUT YOU LIVE IN
PERFECT LOVE THAT COMES FROM
THE FATHER, YOU COME UP HERE
AND YOU START LOOKING
ABOVE.
AND EVEN THOUGH YOU STILL
SEE THE STORM, YOU'RE NOT
AFFECTED BY THE STORM
BECAUSE YOU'RE LIVING IN A
DIFFERENT PLACE.
AND YOU CAN SWOOP DOWN AND
YOU CAN RESCUE AND YOU CAN
MOVE, BUT YOUR VISION IS
FOCUSED ON A DIFFERENT
PLACE.
AND YOU'RE IN THE SPIRIT.
YOU'RE TOTALLY YIELDED TO
HOLY SPIRIT.
SO YOU'RE NOT FLAPPING.
YOU'RE NOT BLEEDING.
YOU'RE NOT BROKEN.
YOU'RE NOT CONFUSED.
AND YOU SEE THE END.
YOU SEE THE END, NOT JUST
THE BEGINNING.
SO IT'S A NEW PLACE FOR ME.
AGAIN, 38 YEARS OF FOLLOWING
THIS ONE I LOVE, JESUS, BUT
I LITERALLY HAVE MOVED INTO
A NEW PLACE.
Gordon: AMEN.
AMEN.
THAT'S A GOOD ANSWER FOR THE
CARES AND THE CONCERNS OF
THIS WORLD THAT CHOKE THE
WORD.
IF YOU WANT TO SEE THE MOVIE
"COMPELLED BY LOVE," ALL YOU
HAVE TO DO IS GO TO OUR
WEBSITE TO FIND YOUR NEAREST
SCREENING.
IT IS ALSO AVAILABLE, I
BELIEVE, ON AMAZON.
AND HEIDI'S NEW BOOK,
"BIRTHING THE MIRACULOUS,"
IS ALSO AVAILABLE
NATIONWIDE.
AND STILL AHEAD, HEIDI IS
GOING TO BE PRAYING FOR
YOU.
SO YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS
THIS.
SHE'LL BE BACK RIGHT AFTER
THIS.
Gordon: ALL RIGHT,
HEIDI IS GOING TO PRAY FOR
YOU.
WE'VE GOT SOME SPECIFIC
PRAYER REQUESTS.
THIS IS LATOYA ON Facebook
SAYING, "I'M HAVING A HARD
TIME FOLLOWING MY DREAMS.
PART OF ME IS SO PASSIONATE,
BUT THE OTHER PART IS SCARED
OF FAILING.
I KNOW IT'S JUST FEAR.
I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW TO GET
OVER THIS.
PLEASE, CAN YOU PRAY FOR
ME."
LATOYA, PERFECT LOVE CASTS
OUT ALL FEAR.
MICHELLE SAYS, "I DREAM OF
GOING OVERSEAS AND BEING A
MISSIONARY, BUT I HAVE
PARKINSON'S DISEASE, SO ANY
TRAVEL IS IMPOSSIBLE."
YOU'VE HEARD THAT BEFORE.
GOD DOES THE IMPOSSIBLE.
PLEAS"PLEASE PRAY THAT GOD
WILL HEAL ME SO I CAN FOLLOW
MY DREAMS."
MARIA, "I LOVE TO MENTOR AND
TEACH GODLY PRINCIPLES TO
CHILDREN OF ALL AGES.
BUT I'M NOT SURE HOW TO DO
THIS.
I'VE BEEN STUDYING THE BIBLE
WHILE I PREPARE, BUT SO FAR
NO DOOR HAS OPENED.
PLEASE, CAN YOU PRAY FOR
ME."
CAN YOU PRAY FOR THESE AND
PRAY FOR THOSE WHO ARE
WATCHING.
COME ON.
SWEET, SWEET HOLY SPIRIT,
YOU KNOW ABOUT LATOYA, YOU
KNOW MICHELLE, YOU KNOW
MARIA, YOU KNOW THE PEOPLE,
GOD, THAT ARE OUT THERE.
LORD, I PRAY THAT THERE
WOULD BE SO MUCH YIELDEDNESS
THAT THE FEAR WOULD LEAVE.
I PRAYER, HOLY SPIRIT, THAT
YOU WOULD JUST COME AND
BREAK IN ON LATOYA, GOD,
THAT SHE WOULD BE ABLE TO
CARRY HER PROMISES TO FULL
TERM.
LORD, THAT YOU WOULD PUT
SUSTAINABILITY IN HER, THAT
YOU WOULD BREAK OFF THAT
FEAR, THAT SHE WOULDN'T BE
WORRIED ABOUT THE PAIN, SHE
WOANWOULDN'T BE WORRIED
ABOUT THE STRETCHING OR THE
THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO
HAPPEN, BUT SHE WOULD FEEL
YOUR PRESENCE AND SHE WOULD
BE WILLING TO PAY THE PRICE
TO BIRTH THE DREAMS YOU HAVE
PLACED IN HER LIFE.
OH, GOD, I JUST THANK YOU,
JESUS.
LORD, FOR MICHELLE, GOD,
JUST BREAK IN ON HER, GOD.
LORD, YOU'RE THE HEALER, THE
GLORIOUS ONE.
YOU'RE THE ONE THAT CAUSES
US TO BE TOTALLY TRANSFORMED
BY YOUR LOVE.
GOD, WOULD YOU BREAK IN AND
HEAL, GOD.
I JUST SPEAK TO PARKINSON'S
AND I COMMAND PARKINSON'S TO
STOP IN JESUS' NAME.
TO GO IN JESUS' NAME.
LORD, WOULD YOU CAUSE YOUR
GLORY AND YOUR PRESENCE TO
COME.
AND, LORD, MAY THE MISSION
FIELD THAT EVERY ONE OF
THESE WOMEN, AND THOSE THAT
ARE WATCHING WORK IN, MAY IT
BE TO BE INTIMATE WITH YOU
AND TO LOVE THE ONE IN FRONT
OF THEM.
GOD, WHETHER YOU PUT THEM ON
A BUS, WHETHER YOU PUT THEM
IN KMART, WAL-MART, OR
SOMALIA, LORD, LET THE LOVE
OF JESUS FLOW OUT OF THEM,
GOD.
I PRAY FOR OPEN DOORS FOR
MARIA, FOR TEACHING DOORS,
FOR OPEN DOORS, GOD, THAT
EVERY HINDRANCE BE GONE.
I'M ASKING, LORD, THAT YOU
WOULD PUT A TENACITY IN YOUR
PEOPLE.
THAT THEY WOULD NOT GIVE
UP.
THAT THEY WOULD NOT ABORT.
THAT THEY WOULD NOT
MISCARRY.
WOULD YOU PUT AN ABILITY TO
CARRY, LORD, TO BEAR THE
REPROACH, IF NEED BE, TO PAY
THE PRICE, GOD.
TO BELIEVE, TO FIX THEIR
EYES ON YOU AS THEY'RE
STRETCHED AND PULLED AND
MOVED INTO TRANSITION, AND
EVEN AS THE BIRTHING COMES,
LORD, CAUSE YOUR PEOPLE TO
SAY YES, SO THEY WOULD HOLD
THAT WHICH YOU CALL THEM TO
HOLD.
THEY WOULD SEE IN THEIR OWN
ARMS THAT PROMISE BROUGHT
FORTH.
I THANK YOU, JESUS.
I BLESS THE LORD.
AND I BLESS THIS PLACE.
AND I BLESS THESE PEOPLE IN
JESUS' NAME.
Gordon: AMEN.
AMEN.
WHERE ARE YOU OFF TO NEXT?
I'M OFF TO NEW YORK.
AND THEN TAIWAN AND
SINGAPORE AND BACK HOME TO
MOZAMBIQUE.
ALL IN THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS.
Gordon: HOW MANY MILES
A YEAR DO YOU TRAVEL?
A COUPLE HUNDRED
THOUSAND.
Gordon: THE AIRLINES
MUST LOVE YOU?
THEY DO.
I THINK THEY DO.
I LOVE THEM, TOO.
I MADE FRIENDS.
I TALK TO THE HOSTESSES, AND
I SPEAK TO THE PILOTS AND
MAKE FRIENDS.
AND SOME OF THEM COME AND
VOLUNTEER.
Gordon: DO THEY LET YOU
PRAY IN TONGUES ON THE
AIRPLANE?
THEY DO.
I PRAY QUIETLY.
THEY ASK ME TO PRAY.
I SAT NEXT TO A GIRL COMING
HERE, AND MY PLANE WAS
CANCELLED --
Gordon: WITH ALL OF
THOSE MILES, THEY PUT IN THE
BACK, MIDDLE.
I WAS BACK, MIDDLE.
Gordon: THAT MUST HAVE
BEEN A GOD SEAT.
I SAID THAT.
USUALLY I MIGHT GET UPGRADED
BECAUSE I'VE FLOWN OVER A
MILLION MILES, AND I
THOUGHT, IF I'M IN THE BACK
MILL, THERE IS A REASON WHY
THIS HAPPENED.
AND I GOT TO MINISTER TO THE
GIRL NEXT TO ME.
SHE WAS VERY TOUCHED.
GOD JUST BROKEN IN ON HER.
SHE HAD SEVERE PROBLEMS
BECAUSE HER DAD DIED OF
COLI COLON CANCER, AND SHE
WAS STRUGGLING WITH HER
FAITH.
AND SHE LET ME PRAY FOR HER
IN TONGUES.
AND SHE LET ME MINISTER TO
HER AND GOT MY NUMBER, AND I
JUST BONDED WITH THIS SWEET
GIRL, VICTORIA, AND GOD
POURED HIS LOVE ON HER.
I FIGURED, WHATEVER YOUR
DOING, DO IT FOR THE GLORY
OF GOD.
AND ALWAYS SEE THE ONE NEXT
TO YOU.
BE PRESENT.
JUST BE PRESENT, WHEREVER
YOU ARE.
IT'S EASY TO GO TO THE
MISSION FIELD, I THINK,
SOMETIMES, THAN TO JUST
SHARE YOUR FAITH AT HOME.
TO WHEREVER YOU ARE, TO LOVE
THE PERSON IN FRONT OF YOU
INSTEAD OF JUST LOOKING FOR
THE NEXT THING.
ALWAYS THE NEXT THING.
JUST BE PRESENT.
PRESENT WITH GOD AND PRESENT
WITH THE PERSON HE HAS PUT
IN FRONT OF YOU.
Gordon: NO MATTER IF
THEY'RE ON THE ELEVATOR OR
THE PLANE SEAT NEXT TO YOU.
BUT OCCASIONALLY IT CAN GET
A LITTLE RISKY.
I WENT INTO DEEP
INTERCESSION ON ONE FLIGHT,
AND THE STEWARDESS THOUGHT I
WAS IN TROUBLE.
IT HAPPENS.
IT'S OKAY.
Gordon: HEIDI, THANKS
FOR BEING WITH US.
