Saving Souls | Richard Roberts and Lindsay Roberts Ministries

And like that song says, “They’ll Know We Are Christians By Our Love,? by our outstretched hands, not our clenched fists, not our signs that we march around with.  But, instead, Lord, with the Word of God on our lips, the power of the Holy Spirit and the anointing upon our lives.

We thank You, Lord, that we can get involved and we can make a difference.  And the difference that we make helps make all the difference.  Thank You for an anointing, in Jesus” name.  Hallelujah.

Anyone that has a hurt or a pain or some type of sickness or disease in your body, I want you to lay your hands on yourself right now.  It’s a mighty good time to get healed tonight.  The Word has been preached this afternoon and tonight, and let’s believe for the confirmation.  Lay your hand on yourself.

In the authority of the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, I come now with the full force of my faith against every sickness, every disease, every fear, and every doubt.  And, Father, in Jesus” name I rebuke it.

Satan, I command you in the authority of Jesus” name, you take your hands off God’s property.  You loose them and let them go, for every person her was paid for by the shed blood of Jesus.   Satan, you release them.  I speak to every pain.  I command it to go.  Stiffness and swelling and arthritis, in the authority of Jesus” name, you come out.  Disks and vertebrae, in the authority of Jesus” name, be healed.   Colin, come up here real quickly and let me lay my hands on you right now.  In the authority of Jesus” name, I take authority over this situation right here. Loose him in the name of Jesus.  Colin, I speak life into your neck and into this…is the 5th and 6th?  Right now, in Jesus” name, I speak life into it and healing, according to the Word of God.

Satan, you take your hands off this neck right now in Jesus” name.  Thank You, Lord, for healing.  Thank You, Lord Jesus, for healing, for healing.  Just lift Your hands and receive your healing tonight, everybody.  Just lift your hands and receive it.

There’s an anointing here right now.  In Jesus” name, backs and feet and legs and toes and fingers and hands, in the authority of Jesus” name, be healed.  Rheumatoid arthritis, go in the authority of Jesus” name.  Sickle cell anemia, you come out.  High blood pressure, be healed.  Low blood pressure, be healed in the authority of Jesus” name.

“They said, Isn’t this Joseph’s boy?  Isn’t this Mary’s son?  Isn’t this James” brother?  Isn’t this the illegitimate one?  Isn’t this the one who really no one knows who his father is?”

And they became indignant and angry and upset, and it wasn’t long until they really wanted to throw him off the cliff.  But He turned and walked through them, and the Bible says “he went his way.”

Imagine the Son of God coming to your home with healing, and you saying, “No, I have been a “cafeteriaized? Christian.  I’ll pass on that entree and I’ll wait till somebody else comes to town.”

I remember hearing Brother Kenneth Copeland tell the story about one night a woman… he went to lay hands on a woman who had a goiter, and she said, “Oh, no, no, Brother Copeland.  Don’t pray for me.  I’m saving that one for Oral Roberts.”  …LAUGHTER…

Imagine having the Anointed One in your home and rejecting Him.  The headline right here in my Bible says,  ”Jesus Rejected at Nazareth.”  They missed their hour of visitation.  Don’t miss what you came for.

Everyone who has spoken has brought it out.  Don’t miss what God has for you.  How many times have we quoted that Scripture so far since this morning?  “The violent take it by force.”  Don’t miss what you came for.

Now that means there’s got to be a tenacity in our faith, there’s got to be a tenacity that causes our faith to become action.  And that’s what real faith is, for faith is what you hold on to until you receive what you’re believing for. But you’ve got to take a step and do something, like the little woman…if you read on in Luke a few chapters, you’ll find the woman who reached out to the crowd and touched the border of His garment.  She heard about a Jesus who could heal her.

She’d been to the doctors, they’d done all they could do.  She’d spent all of her living and was not any better, but rather, the Bible says, grew worse.  But she heard about him and said, “If I can only get my hands on His clothing, if I can touch that border, that prayer shawl with the tassels,? representative of the Word of God, “if I could just get my hands on it, I know I would be healed.”

God spoke to me recently prophetically, said, “You are going to be the opposite of Joseph.”  I couldn’t figure out what that word meant.  And the word came forth, “Joseph had seven years of plenty, followed by a famine.”  God said, “You’re going to have seven years of famine, followed by plenty.”  Well, I just finished my seventh year.  (Response)

And God is opening a new threshold for this university, the largest number of students in the history of this university. Our applications are up.  It looks like we’re going to break another record this fall.  The debt is halfway gone.  The rest is gone by faith.

God just may be thrusting you off His wing during this conference.  And you’re flapping because God is launching you into something brand-new.  I’ve got news for you.  That’s your faith talking.  Just keep flapping.

As those plagues came, Israel just kept flapping.  And you and I, we’re supposed to just keep flapping.  The just shall flap by faith.  And they just kept flapping those little wings, flapping and flapping, until all of a sudden something clicked, and it was a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.  (Applause)

God created you to soar like an eagle.  You say, “Well, it’s awfully hard to soar with the eagles when I’ve got to live with the turkeys.”  A man said, “I’ve given up on people.  I’m just going to love the world.”  Well, the world is people.  You say,  ”But a born-again turkey is still a turkey.  And many of them sit on the front row of my pew.”  God gave them to you.  And why are they there?  Because you’ve got the smell of sheep on you.  God called you there.  He works through people.  That’s who He works through.

You know, the eagle is an amazing bird.  It has telescopic and microscopic vision.  It can see things very close up, and it can see things very far away.  It can be flying at several thousand feet and see a fish swimming in a river and dive and capture it.  You’ve seen it on film.

They’re amazing, amazing birds.  And they have a way of setting their wings when the windstorms come.  They set their wings.  And the windstorm causes them to rise above.  Airplanes were designed after eagles.  The aeronautic properties in an eagle are almost unlimited.  And they set their wings, and their wings cause them, or the setting of their wings causes them to rise above the storms.

RR: You had it for at least five years.

LADY: Yeah.  All my life practically.

RR: Practically all your life.  You can tell a difference now.

LADY: Uh huh.

RR: That’s the healing power of God on your back.

LADY: I also twisted my ankle and the pain is gone from that.

RR: Gone.

LADY: Uh huh.

RR: Glory to God.  Thank You, Father.  Thank You, Lord Jesus.  Yes, honey.

LR: She’s had scoliosis since she was nine, and before you said the coolness going down her back, she said there was coolness going down her back and then you said it.

RR: What did you just feel?

LADY: I just felt coolness in my back.  I didn’t think it would feel like coolness, but it was just like ice in my back, all in my back.  And it was even before you said that.  And then you said something about scoliosis and coolness in the back, and I thought, yes, that is mine, because I’ve been waiting for so long for my spine to just be straight and this rib hump to be taken off my back completely.  And I know it’s taken care of.

LR: Can you feel any difference?  Can you feel any difference?

LADY:  I mean, I feel straighter.  My body feels straighter.  I get hunched over sometimes because my back, it’s just, it just weighs on my back.  But I feel like I can be straighter now.

RR: Lord, let it never return.  Let it never return, in the name of Jesus.  (Applause)  Carlton, Lindsay, Billy Joe, let’s lay hands on these who come and let’s rebuke it from ever coming back. Let’s rebuke it.  Stretch your hands out.  Step forward, please. And the rest of you just leave one line up here and the other step back, if you would please.  Let’s begin to lay hands on them right now.  (LAYING ON OF HANDS)

This is a conference of teaching, preaching, and healing. Love and unity through what?  Signs and wonders.  Anyone who has a need of healing, stand up right now.  It’s healing time.  It’s healing time at the ICBM.  It’s healing time.  It’s healing time.

You who are in ministry, you who pastor a church, don’t preach so long that you preach your people to death.  Stop early enough so you can pray for their healing.  Don’t be afraid to lay hands on them.  Don’t be afraid when God gives you an unusual word and you don’t know what to do with it.  Just say it.  Be bold.

The other night, God gave me a word about halitosis right at the end of the program.  I thought, “God, are You sure?”  And the Lord showed me it was not just bad breath.  It was a problem way down in the stomach that was causing it.  I gave that word.  We went off the air thirty seconds later.

The next night there was a woman who called in.  We had her live on the phone.  She said, “I am the one with the halitosis problem.  It was because of a hiatal hernia.  When you gave that word, instantly the hernia was healed and the halitosis problem is gone.”  Now that may seem unusual, and God will do that through you if you’ll open yourself up and be willing, and be willing to just expose yourself like that.

I don’t understand half the things that He says, but if I’m obedient and if I do it … and as Lindsay stands beside me each night and we do it and we do it and we do it and we don’t stop doing it, we just keeping doing it, we’re going to have a live healing program across this nation, a live healing service five nights, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and the power of God’s going to fall across this nation.  And other people are going to say, “If they can do it, I can do it.”  And no one will get the glory except God.  They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.  I hope another thousand programs launch up where people are praying for the sick every night. What time?  It’s on 8 to 9 p.m., Central Time, and about seventy percent of the stations are carrying it live and the others carry it either one, two, or three hours delayed.  If you have a satellite dish, you can get it live at 8 to 9 p.m., Central Time, Monday through Friday night.  We’re on 156 stations.  It’s going on live in Dallas tomorrow night in Jesus’ name.
