HUMANS OF MORE VALUE.
> WELCOME TO "THE 700 CLUB."
THE TROPICAL STORM IS HEADING
TO THE CAROLINAS TODAY AFTER
LEAVING A TRAIL OF DESTRUCTION.
UP TO HALF 1 MILLION PEOPLE
LOST POWER IN FLORIDA.
EVEN THOUGH THE STORM WASN'T
AS DAMAGING AS FEARED, THE HIGH
WINDS -- GEORGE THOMAS BRINGS
US THE STORY.
Reporter: IDALIA MADE
LANDFALL ON THE WEST COAST AS A
DANGEROUS CATEGORY THREE STORM
WITH MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS
NEAR 125 MILES AN HOUR. THOSE
WINDS BLOWING OFF ROOFS AND
SNAPPING TALL TREES AND STOP
SIGNS. SOME ROADS IN NORTHERN
FLORIDA WERE BRIEFLY IMPASSABLE
WITH DOWNED POWER LINES STRUNG
ACROSS STREETS. IN TALLAHASSEE,
THE FLORIDA GOVERNOR'S WIFE
POSTING THIS PICTURE ON SOCIAL
MEDIA OF A 100-YEAR-OLD OAK
TREE FALLING ON THE GOVERNOR'S
MANSION. CASEY AND THE THREE
CHILDREN WERE HOME AT THE TIME
BUT SAYS THANKFULLY, NO ONE WAS
INJURED . THE STORM SURGE
INUNDATING HUNDREDS OF
BUSINESSES AND LEAVING ENTIRE
NEIGHBORHOODS SUBMERGED IN
WATER. THIS WAS THE SEEING IN
CRYSTAL RIVER, FLORIDA. FOOTAGE
SHOWING WIDESPREAD FLOODING.
COUNTY OFFICIALS USING RESCUE
AIRBOATS TO EVACUATE RESIDENTS
TRAPPED BY HIGH WATERS AND
EVEN BEYOND FLORIDA, IDALIA WAS
A HARROWING EXPERIENCE FOR
SOME. IN GOOSE CREEK, SOUTH
CAROLINA, A MOTORIST CAPTURED
THIS MOMENT AS A TORNADO SINCE
A CAR FLYING THROUGH THE AIR .
THANKFULLY, NO SERIOUS
INJURIES. STILL, RESIDENTS FROM
SOUTHWEST FORWARDED TO NORTH
CAROLINA BREATHING A SIGH OF
RELIEF.
JUST THINKING GOD EVERY
MINUTE.
Reporter: SOME COMMUNITIES
ALONG THE GULF COAST FACE A
LONG CLEANUP, AHEAD.
Reporter: IN PERRY, A SMALL
TOWN LOCATED INLAND WHERE
IDALIA CAME ASHORE, FOLKS WERE
ALREADY CLEANING UP DEBRIS.
I SEE A LOT OF PEOPLE
REACHING OUT.
Reporter: EVEN SO, IDALIA
REMAINED A SERIOUS THREAT AFTER
RACING THROUGH FLORIDA, MOVING
UP THE SOUTHEAST, BRINGING
STORM SURGE, DAMAGING WINDS,
TORNADOES AND FLOODING RAIN TO
PARTS OF GEORGIA AND THE
CAROLINAS. AND OPERATION
BLESSING TEAMS HUNKERING DOWN
AND PLAN TO STAGE RELIEF
OPERATIONS IN FLORIDA, WORKING
WITH THE RELIEF NETWORK
PARTNERS AND A LOCAL CHURCH TO
HANDOUT ESSENTIAL SUPPLIES .
THERE IS NEED FOR FOOD,
CURRENTLY. THERE IS NEED FOR
WATER AND BASIC NECESSITIES
THAT YOU WOULD THINK YOU WOULD
ALREADY HAVE. APPARENTLY, THEY
DON'T HAVE ANY.
GEORGE THOMAS, CBN NEWS.
> YOU CAN GIVE TO THE
DISASTER RELIEF FUND. WRITE TO
US AT CBN CENTER VIRGINIA
BEACH, VIRGINIA, 2463 THREE .
YOU CAN TEXT 271777 OR CALL US
AT 1-800-700-7000 AND SAY I
WANT TO GIVE TO THE OPERATION
@BLESSING DISASTER RELIEF FUND
> A LACK OF RAIN IS CREATING
PROBLEMS FOR ONE OF THE MOST
FAMOUS ECONOMIC LANDMARKS IN
THE WORLD. JOHN JOSEPH HAS THAT
STORY.
Reporter: THE PANAMA CANAL
IS A LIFELINE FOR LOCAL TRADE
AND NOW IT IS FACING ONE OF ITS
MOST CHALLENGING PERIODS DUE TO
SEVERE DROUGHT. CHUCK HOLTON
FROM PANAMA.
Reporter: IT IS A SITE NOT
OFTEN SEEN . OVER 130 SHIPS
ANCHORED OFF THE COAST OF
PANAMA, WAITING THEIR TURN TO
TRANSIT THE CANAL. THIS
CONGESTION IS THE RESULT OF
SEVERE DROUGHT AFFECTING PANAMA
DUE TO THE EL NIÑO WEATHER
SITE. THE EFFECT ON SHIPPING
HAS BEEN SIGNIFICANT LEADING TO
WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS AND FEWER
DAILY CROSSINGS. THAT MEANS
SHIPS WAIT FOR 10 DAYS OR MORE
OR ARE FORCED TO OFFLOAD WAY TO
GET THROUGH THE CANAL. THE
PANAMA CANAL ADMINISTRATOR
POINTS OUT THE CHALLENGES OF
TRYING TO REDUCE THE MORE THAN
50 MILLION GALLONS OF WATER THE
CANAL USES EVERY DAY.
Translator: THE FACT IS
THAT WATER AVAILABILITY IS VERY
DIFFERENT . THE RAINFALL
PATTERN IS DIFFERENT AND NOW IT
IS NECESSARY TO ADJUST TO A
REALITY THAT IS NOT NECESSARILY
SOLVED BY A RESERVOIR.
Reporter: CONSIDER THIS,
ABOUT 40% OF PRODUCTS PRODUCED
IN ASIA AND SOLD TO THE UNITED
STATES TRANSITS THROUGH THE
PANAMA CANAL. THE CANAL RELIES
ON RAIN . WE GET ABOUT 12 FEET
OF IT EVERY YEAR. LAST YEAR, WE
HAD ABOUT 19 FEET OF RAIN. EVEN
YESTERDAY, WE HAD ABOUT SIX
INCHES BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THE
CANAL IS THAT THEY DON'T HAVE
A WAY TO STORE THE EXCESS
WATER. THEY HAVE TO RELEASE IT
OUT INTO THE OCEAN AND THAT
DOESN'T DO ANY GOOD WHEN WE ARE
DOWN ABOUT 50% IN OUR ANNUAL
RAINFALL TOTALS. IT CREATES A
BIG BOTTLENECK FOR SHIPPING
GOING THROUGH THE CANAL AND IT
COULD CREATE BIG PROBLEMS LATER
ON FOR THE GLOBAL SUPPLY CHAIN.
Translator: THE DEPTH AND
THE SEVERITY OF THIS CRISIS IS
REALLY ATYPICAL. IT IS VERY
HIGH. WE THINK BETWEEN NOW AND
NEXT YEAR, WE HAVE TO OPERATE
WITH DRAFT RESTRICTIONS.
Reporter: THE GOVERNMENT
WORRIES DRY CONDITIONS COULD BE
A DISASTER SINCE TOLLS MAKE UP
75% OF THE ANNUAL REVENUE.
MORALE IS MAINTAINS THE CANAL
WILL CONTINUE TO BE PROFITABLE.
Translator: WE ARE GOING TO
BE AN EXAMPLE OF ECONOMIC
SUCCESS FOR SOCIAL AND
ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY.
THE HEIGHT OF THE RAINY
SEASON DOESN'T ARRIVE UNTIL
OCTOBER AND HAVE DROPPED LIKE
CONDITIONS CONTINUE, U.S. MacY
FURTHER OBSTRUCTIONS TO SUPPLY
.
> NOW TO POLITICAL NEWS AT
HOME, NEW CONCERNS OVER THE
HEALTH OF SENATE MINORITY
LEADER MITCH McCONNELL. THE
REPUBLICAN SENATOR APPEARING TO
FREEZE DURING A NEWS
CONFERENCE IN HIS HOME STATE OF
KENTUCKY ON WEDNESDAY.
WHAT?
RUNNING FOR REELECTION IN
2026.
--
DID YOU HEAR THE QUESTION,
SENATOR? RUNNING FOR
REELECTION IN 2026?
YES.
AS YOU CAN SEE, AIDES
STEPPED IN TO HELP RICH
McCONNELL AND EVENTUALLY LED
HIM AWAY. THIS IS THE SECOND
TIME IN JUST OVER A MONTH THAT
THE GOP LEADER HAS FROZEN
DURING A PRESS CONFERENCE.
> ENTERING A SPECIAL SESSION
SPURRED BY THE DEADLY SHOOTING
LAST MONTH AT A NATIONAL
CHRISTIAN SCHOOL. WHILE THE
REPUBLICAN-LED STATEHOUSE DID
PASS A FEW MEASURES, CRITICS
ARGUE IT DID NOT GO FAR ENOUGH
TO PREVENT SUCH A TRAGEDY FROM
HAPPENING AGAIN.
> PROTESTERS AT THE TENNESSEE
STATEHOUSE WITH FRUSTRATION
AND ANGER AS LAWMAKERS HAVE
CONCLUDED THE SPECIAL SESSION
ON PUBLIC SAFETY WITH LITTLE
SIGNIFICANT ACTION.
WE SAW THE BODIES, KIDS!
MASSACRE ! BY HIGH CAPACITY ,
AUTOMATIC RIFLES . DO YOU KNOW
WHAT THAT DOES TO A CHILD'S
BODY? BECAUSE NINE-YEAR-OLDS
KNOW WHAT IT DOES TO A CHILD'S
BODY!
BILL LEE CALLED THE SESSION
IN RESPONSE TO THE COVENANT
CHRISTIAN SCHOOL SHOOTING WHICH
LEFT THREE CHILDREN AND THREE
ADULTS DEAD. DESPITE PROTESTS,
THE GOVERNOR EXPRESSED A
HOPEFUL OUTCOME.
FOUR BILLS PASSED,
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING WAS FOCUSED
ON ISSUES THAT MATTER TO
PUBLIC SAFETY. IMPROVE THE
BACKGROUND CHECK SYSTEM ,
ATTACKED HUMAN TRAFFICKING ,
MADE ACCESS FOR SAFE STORAGE.
WE FUNDED MENTAL HEALTH
RESOURCES ACROSS THE STATE . WE
MADE PROGRESS.
Reporter: SARA NEWMAN'S
SIX-YEAR-OLD SON IS A STUDENT
AT THE SCHOOL. SHE TOLD CBN
NEWS HE AND OTHER STUDENTS HAVE
BEEN LEFT TRAUMATIZED.
WE ARE WATCHING OUR FAMILIES
WITH FRIENDS AND KIDS AND
ESPECIALLY THIRD-GRADE AND THE
KIDS UPSTAIRS THAT ARE JUST
REELING IN TRAUMA. THEIR
CHILDHOOD HAS BEEN RIPPED
APART. THERE ARE PIECES OF
THOSE KIDS WE WILL NEVER GET
BACK NOT TO MENTION THE
FAMILIES THAT ARE FOREVER LOST
, THEIR CHILDREN.
Reporter: NEWMAN WHO STARTED
THE COMPANY FAMILIES FOR
BRIGHTER TOMORROWS IS
DISAPPOINTED LAWMAKERS DID NOT
DO MORE TO PROTECT STUDENTS
ROM POTENTIAL FUTURE GUN
VIOLENCE. FOR MONTHS, HER GROUP
RALLIED FOR BETTER GUN STORAGE
MEASURES, AND EXTREME RISK
PROTECTION ORDER ALSO KNOWN AS
RED FLAG LAWS. IN THE END, THE
REPUBLICAN SUPER MAJORITY COULD
NOT MUSTER ENOUGH SUPPORT TO
EVEN DEBATE THE IDEA.
THERE ARE SOME THAT ARE
EITHER REFUSED OR DO NOT SEE IT
AS AN URGENT OPTION. AND
WIETERS CANNOT UNDERSTAND THAT.
THIS IS URGENT. THIS IS A
PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS.
Reporter: AS THE WEEKLONG
DEBATE PLAYED OUT, TEMPERS
FLARED LEADING TO A BRIEF
CONFRONTATION BETWEEN CAMERON
SEXTON AND DEMOCRAT
REPRESENTATIVE, JUSTIN PEARSON.
ONE OF TWO STATE LAWMAKERS
EXPELLED EARLIER THIS YEAR. THE
TWO ACCUSED EACH OTHER OF
SHOVING WITHIN MOMENTS OF THE
HOUSE CHAMBER ADJOURNING THE
SPECIAL SESSION.
HE STARTED TO YELL AND
SCREAM AS IF WE HAD DONE
SOMETHING. REPRESENTATIVE JONES
WAS PUSHED AS WELL. AND
DEMANDED WE PROTECT KIDS AND
NOT GUNS.
SECURITY PUT THEIR HAND ON
THE BACK WHICH KNOCKED ME
FORWARD AND I CANNOT REMEMBER
BUT THERE WAS A PHOTOGRAPHER TO
MY LEFT SO WE MOVED RIGHT AND
AT THAT POINT, WE KEEP WALKING
AND REPRESENTATIVE PEARSON
COMES IN AND POSSIBLY.
MEANWHILE, NEWMAN APPLIES
LAWMAKERS WHO STOOD WITH
PARENTS WHO CONTINUE FIGHTING
FOR GREATER SCHOOL SAFETY EVEN
IF THAT MEANS VOTING BILLS
REFUSE TO CHANGE OUT OF OFFICE.
IF THEY ARE NOT ABLE TO DO
THAT IN A WAY THAT REPRESENTS
THE PEOPLE, THEY DO NOT DESERVE
TO HAVE THE SEATS.
GORDON, I CANNOT IMAGINE THE
TRAUMA THOSE KIDS ARE FACING
AND WILL CONTINUE TO FACE .
TRAUMA OF ALL MASS SHOOTINGS
THAT HAVE HAPPENED IN THE
UNITED STATES AND WHERE I AM
SITTING, YOU HAVE TO HAVE READ
LEG LAWS. WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE
VIRGINIA TECH SHOOTING, THE
COLORADO MOVIE THEATER
SHOOTING, WHAT COULD HAVE
HAPPENED IF THE PSYCHIATRIST
WHO THOSE PEOPLE WERE SEEING
HAD THE ABILITY TO READ FIND
THEM , TO SAY, YOU SHOULD NOT
HAVE A WEAPON. CURRENTLY,
UNDER OUR MENTAL HEALTH LAWS,
YOU GET COMMITTED IF YOU ARE
CONSIDERED TO BE A DANGER TO
YOURSELF OR TO OTHERS BUT,
UNFORTUNATELY, THAT IS A VERY
HIGH STANDARD. YOU CANNOT SAY
WELL, THEY ARE DISTURBED. YOU
HAVE TO HAVE SOMETHING ACTIVE
HAPPENING OR ABOUT TO HAPPEN .
AND THAT COMMITMENT IS ONLY FOR
A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. BUT IF
A MENTAL HEALTH PROFESSIONAL
CAN SAY WE NEED TO FLAG THIS
PERSON, THEY CANNOT BE ABLE TO
BUY A GUN IF THEY HAVE A GUN,
THEY SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP
IT. IF YOU HAVE THAT ON THE
BOOKS, AND A LOT OF THESE MASS
SHOOTINGS GO AWAY. TODAY, OUR
MENTAL HEALTH SYSTEM IS IN
CRISIS. WHETHER IT IS COVID OR
THE STRESS OF AMERICAN SOCIETY
OR POLITICS, WHATEVER YOU WANT
TO BLAME, IT IS HAPPENING. SO
TOMORROW ON "THE 700 CLUB."
> STAY CONNECTED ALL DAY
ACROSS OUR PLATFORMS.
> IN THE SCORCHING DESERT OF
SOUTHERN ARIZONA, WHEN SHERIFF
IS REACHING A RELENTLESS WAR
AGAINST CARTELS AND SMUGGLERS.
CHUCK HOLTON TELLS US HOW HE IS
TAKING BOLD ACTION TO
SAFEGUARD HIS COMMUNITY AGAINST
THIS DANGEROUS INVASION .
Reporter: IT MIGHT BE 70
MILES NORTH OF THE MEXICO AND
ARIZONA BORDER . FOR YEARS,
CARTELS HAVE USED THIS ROUTE
TO SMUGGLE ILLICIT CARGO NORTH
ACROSS THE INDIAN
REPRESENTATION. SINCE 2017,
SHERIFF MARK LAMB HAS WORKED TO
STOP IT.
IF YOU LOOK OUT THIS WAY,
THAT AREA IS GOING TO BE THE
RESERVATION. A FEW MILES, FOUR
OR FIVE MILES. THE RESERVATION
GOES ALL THE WAY INTO MEXICO .
IT CROSSES OVER THE BORDER. ON
BOTH SIDES, YOU HAVE MEXICO
AND THE UNITED STATES BUT THE
RESERVATION IS ON BOTH SIDES.
AND SO THEY WILL PUSH THROUGH
THE RESERVATION AND A LOT OF
TIMES, MEMBERS OF THE
RESERVATION WILL DRIVE THEM UP
TO THE COUNTY LINE AND DROP
THEM OFF. AND THEN WHAT THEY
DO IS THEY HIKE UP TO THE IA
OR JUST ON THE OTHER SIDE OF
THE PLACE LIKE I AM GOING TO
SHOW YOU NOW AND THEN THEY WILL
LOAD OUT THEIR VEHICLE AND TAKE
OFF.
Reporter: CBN ROAD ALONG
WITH THE SHERIFF TO SEE THE
SCALE OF THE PROBLEM.
I COULD PROBABLY SHOW YOU
100 OF THESE SPOTS. YOU SEE ALL
OF THE RESIDUE FROM THE PEOPLE
HERE . THE WATER JUGS, THE
CLOSE, THE BLANKETS. THAT
ORANGE TWINE IS THE REMNANTS OF
A MARIJUANA BACKPACK. THEY USE
THE BURLAP STRAPS TO MAKE A
BACKPACK AND THEN THEY WILL USE
THE TWINE TO TIE THESE TWO
PACKS TOGETHER.
Reporter: THIS VAST DESERT
POSES A MAJOR CHALLENGE FOR
THEM TO POLICE IT ALL .
THIS IS A UNIQUE AREA. WE
HAVE RIP CREWS THAT WILL COME
TO THE AREA, THE RIP CREWS WILL
COME IN STILL THE PRODUCT FROM
THESE LOADS WHETHER IT IS
MARIJUANA, THE FENTANYL PILLS
OR LATELY, WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN
STEALING WHICH HAS MORE VALUE
IS HUMANS. SO IF THEY ARE
TRAFFICKING A LOAD OF 10 PEOPLE
THAT ARE TRYING TO COME TO
AMERICA, THE RIP CREWS CAN COME
AND STEAL THEM AND GO OFF AND
EXTORT THEM FOR MONEY, PUT THEM
INTO THE SEX TRADE, MAKE THEM
WORK FOR THEM AND DO ALL OF
THAT.
THESE POOR PEOPLE ARE DARN
NEAR DEAD FROM EXHAUSTION FROM
WHAT THE CARTELS PUT THEM
THROUGH.
I WANT TO SHOW YOU
SOMETHING, WE ARE JUST OUT HERE
ON THE EDGE OF THE INDIAN
RESERVATION THAT GOES ALL THE
WAY DOWN TO THE US-MEXICO
BORDER AND THERE ARE THESE
PILES OF CLOTHING EVERYWHERE
AROUND THIS AREA BECAUSE THIS
IS A DROP OFF POINT. THESE ARE
NOT MIGRANTS. THESE ARE NOT
PEOPLE WHO ARE COMING ACROSS
LOOKING FOR ASYLUM. THE REASON
I SAY THAT IS BECAUSE WE HAVE
SHOES MADE OF CARPET WHICH MASK
DIFFERENT PRINTS AND THE SOUND
OF THEIR WALKING. WE HAVE
CAMOUFLAGE JACKETS OUT HERE.
WE HAVE CAMOUFLAGE HATS . THESE
ARE UNIFORMS, THESE ARE THE
SAME HATS. THESE ARE THREE OF
THEM . THEY HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN
PURCHASED IN THE SAME PLACE.
SEVERAL OF THESE COMMISSARS --
CAMOUFLAGE BACKPACKS. THIS IS
WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT FROM A
MILITARY INVASION WHERE PEOPLE
ARE WEARING UNIFORMS THAT ARE
STANDARDIZED. THESE ARE
OBVIOUSLY BEING FUNDED BY THE
CARTELS AND INSTEAD OF CARRYING
WEAPONS, BUT THEY ARE CARRYING
INTO AMERICA IS POISON.
FRANKLY, THEY ARE FAR MORE
EQUIPPED . IF THEY DECIDE TO
COME OVER WITH GUNS AND ALL OF
THEIR EQUIPMENT, HOW MUCH
MILITARY WEAPONRY CAN YOU BUY
WITH $13 BILLION A YEAR ? THEY
ARE AMASSING ARMIES
WELL-EQUIPPED ARMIES IN
MEXICO THAT ARE GOING TO BE
VERY DIFFICULT TO DEAL WITH.
Reporter: HE BELIEVES THE
PROBLEM IS AS MUCH THE FAULT OF
THE US GOVERNMENT AS IT IS THE
CARTELS. THAT IS WHY THIS YEAR,
THEY HAVE DECIDED TO RUN FOR
U.S. SENATE IN 2024.
THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF
THESE PEOPLE IS TO VOTE THEM
OUT OR IMPEACH THEM AND THERE
IS HOPE . THE HOPE IS THAT WE
HAVE ELECTIONS IN THIS NEXT
ELECTION IS A CRUCIAL ELECTION
BECAUSE IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS
STUFF, YOU DON'T WANT PEOPLE
FLOWN INTO AMERICA, WE'VE GOD
TO GET PEOPLE BACK IN THEIR
WHO ARE GOING TO DO IT AND
PROTECT OUR COMMUNITIES AND
PROTECT THESE PEOPLE BEING
TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY THE
CARTEL.
> FRANKLY, I HAVE NEVER
UNDERSTOOD WHY WE HAVE SUCH A
POROUS BORDER. A NATION THAT
DOESN'T ENFORCE ITS BORDER LAWS
IS REALLY NOT A NATION. YOU
HAVE GOD TO HAVE THIS. AND WE
ARE SEEING IT BY THE MILLIONS
OF PEOPLE WHERE IT IS $300,000
A MONTH AND THAT EQUALS 3.6
MILLION PEOPLE EVERY YEAR . AND
WITHIN THAT, THE CARTELS ARE
QUITE CLEARLY TAKING ADVANTAGE
OF IT. IF YOU ARE NOT WEARING
CAMO, YOU ARE NOT WEARING
CARPET SHOES, YOU ARE NOT
HAVING CAMO BACKPACKS, THE
REASON YOU DESCRIBE THEM IS
THAT YOU NOW WANT TO BLEND IN
WITH THE CIVILIAN POPULATION
AND WHAT THEY ARE DOING IS
QUITE DANGEROUS. THEY ARE
BRINGING DANGEROUS THINGS LIKE
FENTANYL INTO OUR COUNTRY. WE
NEED TO STOP IT AND IT IS

> LINDA IS LOVING RETIREMENT
. SHE HAS ALL OF THE TIME SHE
NEEDS TO CREATE THE CRAFT SHE
ENJOYS . STILL, NOT LONG AGO,
SCIATICA PAIN TO -- PUT A STOP
TO HER HOBBIES. EVEN EVERYDAY
TASKS BECAME UNBEARABLE.
Reporter: LINDA INGRIM LOVES
TRAVELING WITH HER HUSBAND AND
THEIR FAMILY CAMPER.
I DO A LOT OF CROCHETING A
COUPLE OF CRAFT FAIRS THAT I DO
DURING THE YEAR AND I HAVE
PILLOW COVERS, BLANKETS AND
LITTLE SCRUBBY'S LIKE THESE. I
DO SOME WOODWORK AND MAKE
ORNAMENTS AND THAT KIND OF
STUFF.
IN THE SUMMER OF 2021, SHE
STARTED HAVING SCIATICA CAUSING
PAIN IN HER HIP AND LEG .
IT REALLY LIMITED MY ABILITY
TO DO THINGS. MY NORMAL DAILY
ROUTINE, IT REALLY AFFECTED IT.
Reporter: DESPITE TAKING
OVER-THE-COUNTER MEDICATIONS,
THE PAIN ONLY GOD WORSE.
IT GOD SO BAD WHERE I WAS
CRYING SEVERAL TIMES A WEEK SO
I NEEDED TO GO AHEAD AND MAKE
AN APPOINTMENT. AND FIND OUT
WHAT IS GOING ON.
Reporter: IN 2023 AFTER
SUFFERING FOR NEARLY 2 YEARS,
SHE SAW A DOCTOR WHO PRESCRIBED
PHYSICAL THERAPY AND A SPINAL
INJECTION. THE RELIEF WAS
WELCOME BUT ONLY LASTED A FEW
WEEKS .
THERE WAS A DAY IN FEBRUARY
WHERE I NEEDED TO LOAD UP
SOME SUPPLIES AND EQUIPMENT FOR
AN UPCOMING CRAFT FAIR. AND
WHEN I DID THAT, I OVER
INSERTED MYSELF AND THE PAIN
CAME BACK AGAIN. I WAS GETTING
THE THROBBING IN MY HIP, THE
THROBBING NEXT TO MY KNEES, THE
THROBBING ABOVE MY ANKLE.
Reporter: ON MARCH 9th,
LINDA WAS WATCHING THE 700 CLUB
WHEN GORDON STARTED PRAYING FOR
VIEWERS NEEDS.
SOMEONE ELSE, YOU HAVE GOD A
SHIFTED PELVIS. YOU HEARD THE
STORY AND SAID PLEASE SAY THAT
AGAIN. I WOULD LOVE TO GET THAT
FOR ME . AND GOD HAS HEARD YOUR
PRAYER AND WOULD LOVE TO GIVE
IT TO YOU. IN JESUS NAME, BE
HEALED.
I PUT MY RIGHT HAND AND PUT
IT ON MY RIGHT HIP AND UP TOOK
MY OTHER HAND AND PUT IT UP AND
DOWN MY LEG AND I FELT THE
WARMTH OF THE HOLY SPIRIT COME
OVER ME AND IT WAS GONE , IT
WAS GONE! AND I SAID THANK YOU,
JESUS! IT WAS A MIRACLE!
SHE WENT TO HER DOCTOR FOR A
FOLLOW-UP APPOINTMENT ANTI- --
AND HE TOLD HER HOW THAT IS
THE POWER OF PRAYER AND HE
WROTE DOWN PRAYED IN HIS NOTES.
Reporter: LINDA IS STILL
FREE AND IS ONCE AGAIN ENJOYING
THE ACTIVITY SHE LOVES. SHE
ALSO SERVES AS AN ENCOURAGEMENT
TO OTHERS THAT GOD CAN AND DOES
HEAL.
GOD IS OUR HEALER. NEVER
UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF
PRAYER AND GOD'S HEALING
BECAUSE HE HEALED ME. HE
ANSWERED MY PRAYER. HE HEALED
ME AND HE CAN DO THAT FOR YOU.
HE CAN DO IT FOR YOU. HE
WANTS TO DO IT FOR YOU. THAT IS
THE GREAT MESSAGE OF THE NEW
TESTAMENT. HE WANTS TO HEAL.
IN THE OLD TESTAMENT, I AM THE
LORD WHO HEALS YOUR DISEASE. I
FORGIVE ALL YOUR INIQUITIES. I
HEAL ALL OF YOUR DISEASES. IN
THE NEW TESTAMENT, JESUS
SHOWED US THE COMPASSION OF
GOD THE FATHER . HE REACHED
OUT. HE WENT AROUND DOING GOOD.
THAT IS WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS.
HE WANTS TO HEAL YOU. WHEN YOU
HAVE THAT, WHEN YOU UNDERSTAND
HIS PERSONALITY , THEN IT GETS
VERY EASY TO HAVE THAT PRAYER .
AND JUST LIKE LINDA, IT DOES
YOU CAN HAVE THE SAME
EXPERIENCE. FOR LINDA, IT FELT
LIKE A WANTS. THE BIBLE
DESCRIBES THE PRESENCE OF THE
HOLY SPIRIT BEING LIKE FIRE,
LIKE OIL, LIKE WATER. WE HAVE
HEARD OF PEOPLE WHERE IT FELT
LIKE SOMETHING COOL WENT
THROUGH ME. ALL OF THESE THINGS
ARE MANIFESTATIONS OF AND THAT
IS VERY HARD TO DESCRIBE WHICH
IS WHY THE BIBLE CALLS IT A
BREATH, THAT YOU HAVE THIS
SENSATION THAT THERE IS
SOMETHING HAPPENING THAT YOU
CANNOT QUITE SEE BUT YOU KNOW
IT IS HAPPENING TO YOU BECAUSE
YOU ARE EXPERIENCING IT. YOU
CAN HAVE THAT EXPERIENCE. YOU
CAN EXPERIENCE THE PRESENCE OF
GOD. YOU CAN EXPERIENCE THE
HOLY SPIRIT.AND WHEN HE COMES,
HE COMES IN HIS FULL
MANIFESTATION AND ONE OF HIS
NAMES, I AM THE LORD WHO HEALS
YOU. HE WANTS TO DO IT. IT IS
PART OF HIS NATURE. HE WANTS TO
BE THAT FOR YOU. HIS CHILD,
TODAY . NOW WE ARE GOING TO
PRAY AND BEFORE WE PRAY, HERE
ARE SOME OTHER MIRACLES FOR
YOU. THESE TESTIMONIES ARE HERE
FOR YOU TO ENCOURAGE HER FAITH,
TO LET YOU KNOW, THERE IS A GOD
WHO LOVES YOU. HE WANTS TO DO
THIS, WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR
OTHERS, HE WANTS TO DO FOR YOU.
HERE IS CAROLYN. I WAS
WATCHING THE 700 CLUB ON
TUESDAY. TERRY SAID SOMEONE'S
PARENTS WHO WERE SUFFERING FROM
DEMENTIA WERE AFRAID THEY
WOULD ALSO HAVE DEMENTIA AND
THEN SHE PRAYED AND CAST OUT
THAT FEAR AND PRAYED THAT THIS
WAS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. THAT
WAS FROM ME . MY PRECIOUS MOM
JUST PASSED AWAY THIS JANUARY
AFTER SPENDING 12 YEARS IN A
MEMORY UNIT, SUFFERING FROM
DEMENTIA. SHE HAD TWO SISTERS
WHO ALSO PASSED AWAY FROM
DEMENTIA. IT HAS BEEN A DREAD
IN THE BACK OF MY MIND THAT
THIS WAS A FAMILY TREND. TERRY
CASTED OUT AND DECLARED
PERFECT HEALING. ALLELUIA.
GLORY BE TO OUR GENEROUS AND
WONDERFUL GOD .
AMEN. I AM STANDING WITH YOU
ON THAT.
> SUFFERING FROM ACID REFLUX
FOR 25 YEARS, SHE WAS PROVIDED
DOES PRESCRIBED A PUMP. SHE
WAS ALSO TOLD TO CHANGE HER
DIET. SHE EXPERIENCED PAIN
THAT PARALYZED HER FOR OVER TWO
HOURS. GOD TOLD GORDON HE HAD
HEALED HER ACID REFLUX AND THE
PAIN IN HER CHEST. SHE
ANNOUNCES, HE DID.
YOU CAN HAVE THAT SAME
TESTIMONY. YOU CAN HAVE HIS
TOUCH, HIS PRESENCE, HIS LOVE,
HIS FORGIVENESS. YOU CAN HAVE
HIS HEALING. THAT IS WHAT IT
MEANS TO PRAY IN HIS NAME. IT
IS NOT SOME MAGICAL
INCANTATION. WHAT YOU ARE DOING
IS SAYING I UNDERSTAND YOUR
PERSONALITY, UNDERSTAND WHO YOU
ARE AND WHEN I UNDERSTAND THAT
AND I GET THAT WHOLE MESSAGE, I
AM HEALED. LET'S PRAY FOR YOU.
IT'S BELIEVED GOD AND STAND ON
HIS PROMISE AND ON WHO HE IS.
LORD GOD ALMIGHTY, WE COME AND
WE DECLARE THAT NOTHING IS
IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU. YOU ARE
ABLE TO CHANGE THINGS . YOU ARE
ABLE TO CREATE THINGS BRAND-NEW
. YOU ARE ABLE TO CREATE
SOMETHING NEW OUT OF NOTHING.
NOTHING. NOTHING IS TOO HARD
FOR YOU. SO WE LEFT OUR
DISEASE. LEFT OUR PROBLEM, WE
LEFT OUR ANXIETY. WE LEFT ALL
OF OUR BURDENS. AND WE ASK THAT
YOU WOULD COME IN AND BE WHO
YOU ARE FOR YOU ARE OUR
DELIVERER. YOU ARE OUR HEALER.
YOU ARE OUR SAVIOR. AND WE
ASK FOR IT NOW IN JESUS NAME .
THERE IS SOMEONE, YOU ARE
LAYING THE RIGHT HAND ON YOUR
RIGHT HIP AND YOU HAVE
EXTRAORDINARY PAIN. GOD'S
HEALING IT . YOU JUST FELT THAT
TOUCH GO INTO THAT JOINT AND
IN JESUS NAME, YOU ARE HEALED.
DO WHAT YOU COULD NOT DO
BEFORE. STAND UP. JUMP UP AND
DOWN ON IT. PUT YOUR FULL
WEIGHT ON IT. GOD HAS HEALED
IT AND RESTORED IT NOW IN JESUS
NAME.
THERE IS SOMEBODY AND I
DON'T KNOW HOW TO EXPLAIN THIS
BUT YOU HAVE STRIATED MARKS ON
YOUR BRONCHIAL AIRWAYS. GOD'S
HEALING THAT FOR YOU. IT HAS
AFFECTED YOUR LIFESTYLE AND
YOUR BREATHING. TODAY, LIFT UP
YOUR HANDS AND RECEIVE THE
HEALING OF THE LORD IN JESUS
NAME.
I DON'T KNOW IF THIS IS THE
SAME PERSON BUT I SEE SOMEONE
AND YOU HAVE ONE OF THOSE
INHALER FUMES THAT YOU HAVE TO
TAKE IN ORDER TO CLEAR YOUR
PATHWAY AND GOD IS JUST GIVING
YOU THE BREATH. SO TAKE THAT
DEEP BREATH AND REALIZE YOUR
LUNGS ARE CLEAR. YOU DON'T
HAVE ANY OF THAT PROBLEM
ANYMORE IN JESUS NAME. BE
HEALED AND BE MADE WHOLE.
SOMEONE ELSE, YOU HAVE
ISSUES WITH YOUR TEETH LIKE
POCKETS OF INFECTION THAT KEEP
FARMING. YOU GO TO THE
DENTIST. YOU HAVE YOUR TEETH
CLEANED . GOD'S HEALING THAT
FOR YOU, RIGHT NOW. WHAT YOU
HAVE IS BEING HEALED IN JESUS
NAME.
THERE IS SOMEONE, YOU ARE
FACING HEART SURGERY AND THEY
WANT TO PUT THREE STENTS INTO
THE VEINS AND ARTERIES AROUND
YOUR HEART. GOD IS HEALING
YOUR HEART MUSCLE AND WHAT WAS
DAMAGED IS BEING RESTORED NOW.
HE IS RESTORING CIRCULATION, HE
IS RESTORING LIFE . NORMAL
RHYTHM, EVERYTHING YOU NEED FOR
YOUR HEART. HE IS GIVING IT TO
YOU FREE RIGHT NOW. JUST LIFT
YOUR HANDS AND PRAISE HIM FOR
WHAT HE IS DOING. IN THE NAME
OF JESUS, YOU ARE HEALED.
THERE IS SOMEONE ELSE, YOU
HAVE KIDNEY ISSUES. YOU HAVE
HAD THEM FOR A LONG TIME AND IT
IS RECENTLY INCREASED IN
SEVERITY. GOD IS HEALING YOU AS
SETTING YOUR FREE FROM THAT.
YOU HAVE HAD IT FOR A LONG
TIME. JUST BEGIN TO PRAISE HIM
AND THANK HIM.
YOU HAVE OCCURRING
MIGRAINES, THEY ARE
STRESS-RELATED. PRIMARILY IN
THE FOREHEAD, GOD HAS HEALED
YOU AND HE HAS TAKEN ALL OF
THAT ANXIETY AWAY FROM YOU AND
FEAR BE GONE FROM YOU BECAUSE

NAME, BE HEALED. YOUR THOUGHT
PROCESSES TURNED TO HIM . LOOK

OLD AND WAS ON HIS THIRD COMBAT
TOUR. NOW, THE GYM HE HAD BEEN
WORKING OUT IN MOMENTS EARLIER
WAS BLOWN UP LEAVING A SOLDIER
WOUNDED INSIDE. MEDICS QUICKLY
DRAGGED HIM OUT AND HE WAS
AIRLIFTED TO A LARGER BASE.
SHRAPNEL ALL THE WAY THROUGH
MY RIGHT LEG. NERVE DAMAGE.
TREATED FOR TRAUMATIC BRAIN
INJURY. SHRAPNEL PENETRATED
BOTH ARMS. MY OXYGEN LEVEL
STARTED DEPLETING PRETTY BAD .
THAT WAS KIND OF A PANIC
MOMENT.
Reporter: NO INTERNAL
BLEEDING AND COLLINS OXYGEN
LEVEL SOON STABILIZED GET THE
DECORATED SERVICEMAN STILL HAD
A LONG ROAD OF RECOVERY.
IT WAS PRETTY INTENSIVE. I
HAD TO GO THROUGH THERAPY FOR
MY LEG JUST TO MOVE THE
TENDONS. I HAD TO HAVE LUMBAR
FUSION FOR MY BACK . I STARTED
TO REALIZE THAT I AM GOING TO
BE OKAY. I AM GOING TO FIGURE
OUT JUST THE WAY I HAVE ALWAYS
DONE.
Reporter: FOR THE NEXT SEVEN
MONTHS, HE WORKED TIRELESSLY
TO STRENGTHEN HIS BODY. NOT
ONLY HAD HE RECOVERED BUT HE
WAS IN PEAK PHYSICAL CONDITION
AND EVEN HAD HIS SIGHTS SET ON
A NEW CAREER PATH. FITNESS
MODELING.
IT IS FUNNY BECAUSE THE GYM
ALMOST KILLED ME BUT IT ALSO
SAVED MY LIFE. WHAT MOST
PEOPLE WOULD SAY IS A
TREMENDOUS SETBACK ENDED UP
BEING A SET UP FOR MY FUTURE.
13 MONTHS AFTER MY NEAR-DEATH
EXPERIENCE IN AFGHANISTAN, I
WAS ON THE COVER OF IRON MAN
MAGAZINE.
Reporter: COLIN BECAME A
FITNESS INFLUENCER AND HIS
POPULARITY SOARED. TIME
MAGAZINE FROM AROUND THE WORLD
FEATURED HIM . ALL THE WHILE,
THE VETERAN REFUSED FEES.
INSTEAD, HE FOCUSED ON GROWING
AND ADDING VALUE TO HIS
COMMUNITY.
I BELIEVED WHOLEHEARTEDLY
THAT WHEN YOU GIVE WITHOUT THE
EXPECTATION, RETURN ALWAYS
COMES BACK TIMES 10 AND THAT
GOD WOULD ALWAYS PROVIDE FOR
WHAT YOU ARE DOING FOR
HUMANITY. IN THE 2.5 PERIOD, I
LANDED MAGAZINE COVERS AND
GREW MY SOCIAL MEDIA FOLLOWING
2/4,000,000 FOLLOWERS.
Reporter: IN 2016, COLIN
PURSUED YET ANOTHER DREAM AND
FOUND REDLINE STEEL, THE
COMPANY SPECIALIZING IN WALL
DECOR HAS SEEN HIM IT'S SUCCESS
WITH OVER $100 MILLION IN
SALES. YET DESPITE THE PROFIT,
THE BUSINESS HOLDS TIGHT TO
CHARITY AT ITS CORE.
MY STATEMENT IS PEOPLE OVER
PROFIT . I BELIEVE IN THAT
WHOLEHEARTEDLY. IT IS NOT
BECAUSE OF ME. I BLAME IT ON
GOOD UPBRINGING. AND GOD. WE
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GIVE $5
MILLION PLUS TO CHARITIES AND
NONPROFITS AND A HAND EXTENDED
ACROSS THE NATION WORKING WITH
INCREDIBLE NONPROFITS.
Reporte: MANY OF WHICH
SUPPORT VETERANS AND THEIR
COMMUNITIES . THAT SAME DRIVE
TO SERVE THAT LED THEM TO THE
MILITARY, NOW COLIN CONTINUES
TO SERVE HIS COMMUNITY AND
VETERANS AS HE REFLECTS ON HIS
OWN LIFE JOURNEY.
I COULD HAVE DIED AND I
SHOULD'VE. SO TO USE MY
BUSINESS FOR OTHER VETERANS IN
AN OUTREACH, IT IS BIGGER THAN
ME.
YOU SEE WHAT A BACKGROUND
THIS YOUNG MAN HAS. AND THEN
TO SEE THAT CHARACTER IN HIM ,
THAT THIRD ROUND OF
AFGHANISTAN .
ME AND THE ROCKET ATTACK , I
MIGHT NOT GO BACK TO THE GYM
AGAIN BUT HE SAYS, I WILL TURN
IT AROUND. WHAT THE ENEMY MEANT
FOR EVIL, GOD IS GOING TO TURN
IT INTO GOOD AND WE ARE GOING
TO DO GOOD FOR PEOPLE. WE ARE
GOING TO HELP PEOPLE AND I AM
GOING TO GIVE BACK AND THAT IS
A WONDERFUL ATTITUDE FOR ALL OF
US.
> AS CBN, WE ARE COMMITTED TO
SUPPORTING OUR MEN AND WOMEN IN
THE MILITARY LIKE THE NAVY
CORPSMAN YOU'RE ABOUT TO MEET
AFTER HE AND HIS FAMILY WERE
TRANSFERRED , THE SALE OF THEIR
PREVIOUS HOME FELL THROUGH AND
THAT DEPLETED THEIR SAVINGS,
MAXED OUT THEIR CREDIT CARDS
AND LET THEM DEPENDENT ON FOOD
DRIVES TO FEED THEIR FAMILY.
Reporter: NAVY CORPSMAN
JOSHUA IS AWAY FROM HIS FAMILY
FOR MONTHS AT A TIME. WHEN HE
IS HOME, HE AND HIS WIFE
ASHLEIGH HAVE ONLY ONE VEHICLE
LEAVING ASHLEIGH WITHOUT
TRANSPORTATION. WITH TWO KIDS
ON THE WAY, SHE APPRECIATES
THOUGH SHE APPRECIATES HOW SHE
JUGGLES WITHOUT A CAR. ONE
WEEK BEFORE CLOSING, THE SALE
FELL THROUGH BECAUSE THE HOUSE
NEED OF REPAIRS. NOW JOSHUA
AND ASHLEIGH HAD TO PAY FOR THE
REPAIRS AND KEEP PAYING THEIR
MORTGAGE .
I FEEL LIKE I AM OVER MY
LIMITS TRYING TO FIGURE THIS
OUT.
I WAS WORRIED. THERE WAS A
LOT OF CRYING INVOLVED. I JUST
THINK ABOUT OUR KIDS. HOW ARE
WE GOING TO FEED THE FAMILY?
Reporter: WITHIN A FEW
MONTHS, THE COUPLE'S ENTIRE
SAVINGS WAS DEPLETED AND THEY
RELIED ON MILITARY BASED FOOD
TO FEED THEIR FAMILY.
IF WE CANNOT GET IT SOLD,
THE ONLY OPTION IS BANKRUPTCY
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WE
ARE GOING TO DO.
Reporter: MY FAITH SUSTAINS
ME. I AM CONSTANTLY PRAYING
THROUGHOUT THE DAY ABOUT
SELLING THIS HOUSE.
Reporter: THERE CHURCH HEARD
ABOUT THE DILEMMA AND CALLED.
THE CHURCH LEADER INVITED THE
COUPLE OVER TO SHARE SOME BIG
NEWS.
CBN WANTS TO TAKE CARE OF
THE NEXT THREE MONTHLY MORTGAGE
PAYMENTS ON YOUR HOUSE IN
WASHINGTON.
AMAZING! I AM SO HAPPY !
Reporter: SUSAN HAD ONE MORE
ANNOUNCEMENT.

OF A BLESSING IT IS TO HAVE A
WAY TO TRANSFER OUR WHOLE
FAMILY AND OUR FUTURE KIDS,
TOO.
I FEEL BUT WILL -- BLESSED

YOUR EMAIL QUESTIONS, RIGHT
AFTER THIS.
> MELISSA AND HER HUSBAND
HAVE COME A LONG WAY. THEY
HAVE BEEN TRYING TO START A
NUMBER OF BUSINESSES AND WERE
$80,000 IN DEBT. ALL THE WHILE,
THEY WERE TITHING AND THE
NEWLY MARRIED COUPLE STARTED
WORKING THEIR WAY OUT OF THE
RED .
I THINK I HAD BOUGHT INTO
SOCIETY SAYING THIS IS WHAT YOU
SHOULD HAVE THE. I SIMPLY ASKED
GOD, DO I HAVE MONEY BEFORE
YOU? I ASKED GOD TO FORGIVE
ME, INSTANTLY. I TOLD GOD
WHETHER I MAKE A LOT OF MONEY
OR NOT, I AM DONE STRIVING.
Reporter: TODAY, THEY HAVE
THREE CHILDREN AND JEWS TO LIVE
WAY BELOW THEIR MEANS SO THEY
CAN HELP. THEY HAVE ALREADY
BUILT 13 ORPHANAGES AND A
FREEDOM HOUSE IN INDIA.
WE WERE ABLE TO SEE THE
FRUIT OF THAT GIFT .
Reporter: NOW I HAVE THE
HUNGER TO MAKE MORE MONEY SO WE
ORACLES OF GOD AVAILABLE
NOW FOR A GIFT OF ANY DOLLAR
AMOUNT.
> IT IS TIME TO ANSWER THE
EMAIL QUESTIONS. CASSIDY SAYS,
WOULD IT BE WRONG IF WE WROTE
DOWN ALL OF THE THINGS IN OUR
PAST THAT WE DID WRONG AND
BELOW THE PAPER ROUGH AND
BIRDED?
I THINK IT WOULD BE GREAT IF
YOU DID THAT. IT IS A SYMBOLIC
ACT, IF YOU WILL. I AM TURNING
FROM THIS, I DON'T WANT TO BE
THAT WAY, I DON'T WANT TO DO
THOSE THINGS ANYMORE. I WANT TO
FOLLOW JESUS. THERE IS A
WONDERFUL JEWISH TRADITION. WE
ARE GETTING READY TO START THE
NEW YEAR. IN THAT TRADITION,
THEY WRITE DOWN THE SINS AND
THEN THEY TELL THEM UP AND THEY
THROW THEM INTO MOVING WATER.
THEY WALKED DOWN AS A
CONGREGATION. WE WANT TO RID
OURSELVES OF THESE THINGS. WE
WANT TO ASK GOD FOR HIS
FORGIVENESS AND HIS CLEANSING.
SO, YES, BY ALL MEANS, DO IT.
BUT WHEN YOU DO IT, DON'T PICK
THEM BACK UP AGAIN. REALIZE YOU
CAN DO THIS. ONE AND DONE. KEEP
ACCOUNTS. IF YOU SAY YOU DON'T
SEND, YOU LIE. SO KEEP SHORT
ACCOUNTS WITH THAT BUT I THINK
IT WOULD BE A WONDERFUL
CEREMONY, IF YOU WILL, A
SYMBOLIC ACT, IF YOU WILL, I AM
TURNING AWAY FROM ALL OF THIS .
JOHN ASKS, WHAT DO ANGELS DO
TO BE FALLEN ANGELS?
JOHN, THAT IS A MYSTERY.
HERE IS WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS IN
THE BOOK OF JUDE. AND THE
ANGELS WHO DID NOT KEEP THEIR
PROPER DOMAIN BUT LEFT THEIR
OWN ABODE IS RESERVED IN
EVERLASTING CHAINS UNDER
DARKNESS , THE JUDGMENT OF THE
GREAT DAY. SO WHAT DOES THAT
MEAN? YOU DID NOT KEEP YOUR
PROPER DOMAIN? AND WHY? SO,
HOW DID YOU DO THAT? THERE'S A
COUPLE OF THEORIES . THAT IS
THE ONLY SCRIPTURE I KNOW THAT
TALKS ABOUT IT. THERE ARE SOME
THEORIES THAT SATAN LED THEM
ASTRAY AND LEAD THEM IN A
REBELLION AGAINST GOD. AND AS
A RESULT OF THAT, ONE THIRD OF
THEM FELL. AS A RESULT OF THAT,
GENESIS CHAPTER 6 WHERE THE
SONS OF GOD TOOK WIVES. I
DON'T THINK THAT REFERS TO
ANGELS. THAT REFERS TO THE
SONS OF GOD. THAT MEANS YOU AND
ME. WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF GOD.
ANGELS ARE NOT. EXACTLY WHAT
THEY DID, I DON'T KNOW. BUT I
GUESS WE WILL FIND IT .
> THIS IS DESTINY SAYING
HELLO, I HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT
TITHING. I REALLY NEED SOME
GUIDANCE ON WHETHER I AM DOING
IT RIGHT. MY WIFE AND I ARE
DOING IT AT 10% AND WE HAVE
LOTS OF BILLS. FOR SOME
REASON, NOTHING MAKES A
DIFFERENCE. SHOULD WE GIVE WHAT
WE CAN AND PAY ON OUR BILLS TO
GET RID OF THEM SO THEN WE CAN
GIVE MORE THAN THE 10% TO PAY
THEM OFF.
IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE A
BILL PROBLEM AND NOT A TITHING
PROBLEM. I WOULD PUT THE BILLS
BEFORE THE LORD GOD ALMIGHTY
AND SAY, YOU ARE MY PROVIDER.
HOW CAN YOU , HOW CAN WE GET
THROUGH THIS ? HOW CAN I LEAN
ON YOUR GUIDANCE AND WHAT YOU
WANT ME TO DO? IN YOUR GIVING,
ALWAYS GIVE CHEERFULLY. AND
IF YOU ARE GIVING OUT OF SOME
SENSE OF OBLIGATION, YOU ARE
NOT DOING IT RIGHT. WHEN YOU
GIVE AND YOU GIVE CHEERFULLY,
YOU WALK INTO THIS WONDERFUL
PROMISE FROM PAUL THAT SAYS
GOD LOVES A CHEERFUL GIVER.
YOU WANT THAT. IN MY OWN LIFE,
WHEN I HAVE HAD TIMES WHERE I
HAVE OR I DELAYED TIMES FOR
ALL OF THAT, I LACKED
CONFIDENCE GOING FORWARD. I
WANT TO MAKE SURE GOD IS IN MY
FINANCES. AND I DO THAT THROUGH
THE OFFERING. AND I WANT TO DO
IT CHEERFULLY, I WANT TO DO IT
JOYOUSLY AND I WANT TO DO IT
GENEROUSLY. WHEN YOU HAVE THAT
ATTITUDE, AND ALL OF THESE
OTHER THINGS ARE GOING TO BE
ADDED UNTO YOU. ALWAYS PUT HIS
KINGDOM FIRST. THERE IS A WORD
FROM ROMANS: IF GOD IS FOR US,
