Praying God’s Plan: The Power of Intercession 3/26

0:00I'm a new heart, what I feel, I don't live by my heart I see the calling of God has made a way for me. Hello, everybody. A little blue, everybody. It's everybody, right? You know all that, anyway. It's Kialika Kua. Everybody in Kialika Kua. February 2025, I had three malignant tumors in my bladder removed during Kenneth Copeland's prayer. During Kenneth Copeland's prayer on the BVOV program made the 12th 2025. I was healed and restored. This was confirmed by subsequent doctor's reports. There is no recurrence and no cancer cells. I'm 73 years old.

1:00And I've been a prayer and financial partner for over 24 years. Elizabeth Rachea. Oh, in Russia. Oh, wonderful. She's in Russia. Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hmm. Yeah. Down. In Romans 8, likewise, the spirit also helps our infirmities. For we know what we should pray for as we all. But the spirit himself makes intercession for us with groaning, which cannot be uttered. And he that searches the heart knows what's the mind of the spirit, because he makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. Well, the prayer of intercession is a ministry, a strong ministry. Oh, yeah. And that's the reason we pray prayers like that for our partners every day. I pray for our partners every meal and an intercede for them. Now, I brought that up.

2:00I want you to look at this. Now, talk about this and the power that's in intercession. Yeah, because when you do that, the Holy Spirit himself makes intercession. He has entree. Yes. He's entree to the king. Yes, he is. To the Lord, I did an album once called Songs from the Inner Court, because of the scripture that says, we can come boldly before the king. And I pictured myself with Paul Johnson's great arrangements with musicians coming in and singing the songs we sing in church. But instead of, you know, two, three, four verses go under the next song, no singing to the king on the throne in his presence. But this prayer list, I keep telling if we do, I guess we all do. All of us Christians, we say, I'll pray for you.

3:00And you mean to do it. And maybe you'll remember to do it once or twice. And then, and then the name comes up two years later. I told him I'd pray for him. I won't ever happen. And you don't do it. You have to write it down. And so I started this and I wrote my daily prayer list on this piece of paper. And I thought it would, it would do me. But then I had to add this one with two more, and you can see how closely together all these names and issues are. It just keeps growing. And I keep adding more names in here because I've said I would do it. Now, I've got to do it. And I've got to pray, as I said, I would. Well, how do you do that if you're very busy? As you get up late and you've got to go and you don't get it, you know, days go by. And so I carry this Bible with me all where I go anyway. But I put this list in my Bible so that every day when I can, and I'm having my time to pray and read and digest the word,

4:07then I can maybe sometimes go through one or two of these pages and pray specifically for that person or that family. And some I've already realized they've been blessed, but I keep praying for them anyway. But then there are times when I cannot go through, I may not even have time to go through one full page like this. But on this page, in the middle of this page, there's a guy named Siri Muscarella. And just I wrote his name here below, Marty Hooper and Becca. He was a missionary. His wife still lives, Marty's in heaven. And then I down below I wrote those an authority over us. I don't know who they all are, but the Bible says we're supposed to pray for those an authority over us. So they're on my daily prayer list. But it goes on down some of my best friends, some who aren't with us on this planet anymore. I pray for the lawyer that is responsible for me and legal matters.

5:11I pray for Dana and Aiden who are looking after my business affairs. And I pray for my sister, two sisters, Margie and Judy. They're both Margie's had two strokes. She and Judy are both doing well. Nick, my brother's widow. And these are all these people. So I don't have time to fashion worthy prayers for all. But I say Ruach Kadesh, Holy Spirit. Yes. I lay these before you. I promise to pray for them. And I do pray for them. Right now I'm praying for them almost as a huge group of people. But you know this list. You know everything. And I promise to pray for them every day. And I'm going to do it if I possibly can. Either individually or which it gets to be more and more difficult to do it individually. But at least I now can say to those I promise to pray for that I do every day.

6:13Now that comes under the authority of the believer. Yeah. That we have a place that's thrown a grace. Mm-hmm. And we lay names before that. Yes, lay them up there. And a list of widows. Mm-hmm. And just as the widow herself put home to be with the Lord. And mark out those particular widows. Mm-hmm. And I'm praying for a bunch of widows that are related to me directly. So intercession. There's prayer faith. Prayer dedication. Prayer petition. Prayer been a session. All of those, all of those like Brother Hagin said are played by different rules. Mm-hmm. Yeah. Love is involved in all of them.

7:14So faith, hope, and love and the greatest of these is love. So this is an act of authority and love. And if you lay that, I'm telling you heaven hears it. Yeah. Heaven hears it. I want to give you the one example of Siri Mascarella who was a baggage boy at the grocery market for sure. He was going and he'd bring bags out to the car and called her. The, how are you, lady? She always said Siri, how are you? And then it was his birthday. She brought him over. And eventually she led him to the Lord to Jesus. And then he went to Hagin's school, Vrema. Mm-hmm. School and became an incredible minister and built a church in the below Houston. Siri Mascarella, a great, fantastic church. And then he called me one day several months ago. Bad, just want to say goodbye. I said, why? What do you mean, goodbye?

8:14Where are you going? I'm going to heaven. I said, I can't breathe anymore. As you can tell, it was seeking breath to talk to me on the phone. And I'm on a machine. And my lungs have just quit. All those air sacs in my lungs just don't work anymore. And I said, and so I just want to thank you for you and Shirley. And I'll see you in heaven. I said, Siri, I'm not letting you go. You got ministry still to go. And I'm praying for you and I'm going to keep praying. And I did. I can't tell you the whole, just, I'm in the whole thing. But he called me then and one day and said, they're going to operate on me. They're going to take my lungs out, which are not functioning anyway. And put the lung transplant. I didn't know you could transplant lungs. But then he called me later and said, fall start. They decided those lungs aren't worthy. They can't. And they won't work. So goodbye again.

9:15I said, no. You're not leaving. And then the day came when he said, they've got a set of lungs. They think or fit me. They're right. And since that time, it's taken a while. But now I'm talking to them on the phone. He answers the phone. Are you on the machine? No. I said, these lungs are working fine. Praise God. And I have to take some stuff to make sure that they fit in with the rest. But Siri, Muscarella, is alive and well and back to preaching with new lungs. And new lungs. And so that's why this list is important to me. And it can't be to anybody. Thank you, Jesus. Now, we were in, it was ministry's conference, 2019. And I was sitting on the front row. And I began to chill. And I'm just sitting there. If you'd been sitting next to me as close as Paddy, you might have heard me say it.

10:16I said, you can't put that on me. You can't put that on me. I am redeemed from the curse of the Lord. You take your filthy hands off my body. It will. About 15 minutes has gone. It wasn't me you were talking to. No, it wasn't. But. I mean, you were talking to the devil himself. Not realizing that it's COVID-19. Ah. No. My whole team tested negative. Five times. Five different times. I guess you're glad to hear that, right? All you guys. Yeah. You're not just team. You'll take it. Followers and faith and believers. I didn't know you could live. Sick, free. But I learned that from Brother Hagin. And I was on the way to the treadmill. All suited up. I just fell in a floor.

11:18Pain. And boy. It took me to the hospital. My appendix had ruptured. And I needed all of the merry heart I could get. These kind of things can happen to even the man of faith. God doesn't say you're not going to have trouble. And it had ruptured before I got there. Wow. And so they were they all had me. I said, hold it. Hold it. Hold it. That doctor said, what? I said, what do you call this? He's at the endectomy. Why? I said, what do you call it if you take your tonsils out? But I have my tonsilectomy. What do you call it if you take a growth of your head or haircut? He said, I needed all the merry heart I could get. Well, I pray that a lot myself.

12:20Anyway, that was quite an experience. But the evolve boils down to this. The thing that has not been preached. And it must be. Relations chapter three. 13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. Being made a curse for us. For it is written, cursed is everyone that hangs on a tree. That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ. That makes me cry. Jesus was made a curse. That we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. There's blood behind it.

13:24The blood of animals, circumcision, the sinless blood of Jesus. Those are covenant promises. So I speak after the man or the men. Though it be but a man's covenant, what is a covenant pledge? It's very hard to describe. It is something that must not ever be broken, not ever. And in the days of old, if you cut covenant with another family and you broke it, the other family is obligated to kill you. Because of blood between them. Well, that's just as strong. Genesis 17th chapter, God appeared to Abram and changed his name to Abraham. For this day, I established the covenant between the two of us.

14:25And what's interesting is our George Washington president did the same thing. Really? Yes, and then he shocked everybody and ran down on his knee and kissed his Bible. And he said, you'll be our God and we'll be your people. And the fight was on. Yeah, and God took him up on it. Yeah, but he connected us to Israel. And I was not aware of this. The Liberty Bell came moment when he did that. Yeah. The Liberty Bell came out of Leviticus. Let Liberty ring throughout the land. So this nation started that way. So much of this country is designed by God. Yes. I mean, we are God's country. Yes. And we just got to start living like it. That's right. We've got to live like it. But that revelation right there. Yeah. Pray for those who are not authority over you. That you may lose. Now, it goes back to this. When Cain killed Abel, there was no law against it.

15:25It was murder, but there was no law against it. So then came the law and the prophets. The reason for the prophets. Once a prophet spoke that word into the earth, the devil couldn't get it out of here. And as long as the people would listen to that and follow it, then they lived in good health. And that's what the Ten Commandments were written as a covenant. And I have certain things that I've got taped to my shaving mirror. Scriptures that I go through in Ten Commandments in Isaiah 53 and so forth. They just taped there. I do them every day. And then you go over to first John 5. If we pray anything according to his word,

16:25we have the petitions that we divide. So we can put up a petition before the throne. Hannah put up a petition. You've got Samuel. Yeah. Yeah. And we have gotten away from one very powerful revelation. The Lord told Solomon, I want you to build a house for my name. He didn't say worship. I want you to build a house for my name. Yeah. My name. For my name. He loves his name. He is his name. And then we have churches that need to realize that this is a house for his name. And you don't talk in here in the presence of his name.

17:30So that it goes back to what was preached in the generation before. They're generational curses because the generation before it preached the same thing. So the same devil is living in the same family going in the same direction. Until somebody throws on the bricks. There's no blessed God. I'm not going that way anymore. Now you can just get out of my life. I'm not living that way anymore. Yeah. It's up to us to obey. So then my generation is going to turn it around. Boy. So that it's your mouth to God's name. It's so vital that that revelation right there, I have asked so many people. Brother Hagin did too. It's just a... You love the Lord? Oh, yeah. And what are we reading from? Uh... Santa gives.

18:32Because the pastor didn't preach it. You have to go over here to the curse of the law. Yeah. I have placed before you life and death blessing and cursing. Therefore you choose life. Not just the name life, but choose what life is. You choose it. Yeah. Yeah. That's in the book of Deuteronomy. And it's both there, the curse and the blessing of the law. Then you come over here and Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. He's redeemed us from debt. He's redeemed us from sickness and disease. He's redeemed us from poverty. He's redeemed us. Whatever that curse had, we redeemed from it. All lack of anything. Yes, of anything. Yeah. But then it's up to us to know it and believe it and stand on it. In the fact he wrote us a blank check. Yeah. That's fine. But we have to write in what we want.

19:36And it's already signed. But if we don't write it in, we don't speak it. That's it. We don't claim it. That's it. And then it's up to us. We're just not doing what is required. We were having a meeting and the first one we ever had in Hawaii. And I was in it. Charles Capsule was in it. Brother Hagin was in it. Somebody came out and said, well, it's the name it, Blabbit and Grabbit grew with two repeaters. I said, yes. We named it, Blabbit and Grabbit. And we have it. Yeah. And if you be Christ, then are you Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise? We are.

20:38There's neither June or Greek, neither Bonn or Freed, neither male and a female. We're all one in Christ Jesus. If you be Christ, or if you're in Christ, then are you Abraham's seed and heirs according to the promise? I dare you to go ahead with there and find out the promise of Abraham. All of these blessings will come on you and overtake you. Yeah. That overtake you. That's happened to me. Oh. Yeah. Well, maybe you can say it's happened to you, but you've been working at it. A lot of things just happened to me that I wouldn't have had to bravery or knowledge to claim because when I first became a Christian, I was 12 and I read Matthew 10-12, I think it is, but he confesses me before men. I will confess before my father in heaven. He that denies me before men, I will have to deny before my father in heaven. And I realize at 12 years old, that's it.

21:42I've got to claim Jesus because I suddenly transported myself into 60 years later, which is where I am now, more than that. And I want to say, Jesus, I confessed to you before men, before others. I'm Pat Boone from Nashville, Tennessee. Remember me? I belong to you. And I could see it that clearly. And it changed me. And then I was baptized and then I was really changed because I didn't curse like my boyfriend, my friends in school. I mean, I didn't want to and I just didn't. And I didn't smoke and drink and even I was in a Christian high school, you wouldn't think that it would take any willpower not to do those things. But it wasn't taking willpower as much as I will. You're a new Christian. I didn't want to do it. Not that it didn't appeal to me, but it's not who I am.

22:42And with my grandkids, and there was a couple of broken marriages and my grandkids were, I didn't want them to feel somehow left out. And so I taught them all. And now my great grandkids, one of the three things that Pat wants you to know, that God loves me, my parents love me, and I'm a good boy or I'm a good girl. Those three things embed those three things. God loves me. That's not going to change. My parents love me. That's not going to change. And I am a good boy or girl. That's who I am. And I am going to live to be that. Praise God. And I tell you, it's been working really good. Well, my dad was my hero. And even when I wasn't all that sure, anything. But he was my hero. And my mother couldn't have any more children.

23:42So I was the dumbest one she ever knew. Anyway. And that was because of... Not a bad average. Well, that was called back in the days. She had a ruptured appendix on the basketball. Oh, my. And when you had to die. And anyway. They... They brought me in. And I realized my dad. He'd say, Kenneth, we're going to do that again. I'm going to whip you. I'm going to... And that... He met it. You knew that. I realized he was waiting until he wasn't angry. The torture was terrible. But when it came... Twice. Nothing. I still kind of...
