[Narrator/Announcer]

The Believer's Walk of Faith is paid for by Bill Winston Ministries, partners and viewers. Up next on the Believer's Walk of Faith.

[Bill Winston]

No force can stop you from having what you are seeing and saying.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

No force.

[Bill Winston]

Come on, Doc. You ought to go in your house speaking stuff. Come on. Go in that job speaking stuff. Go to your business decreeing a thing you do. Everything gets in line to fulfill what you have decreed.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Whatever you're going through, this is the last day you're gonna go through it.

[Bill Winston]

All right? Now watch, watch, watch what's happening here. All right? Look at Genesis, chapter 2, verse 19. And out of the ground, the Lord God formed every beast of the field and every fowl of the air and brought them to Adam to see what he would name them. And whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. Now look at verse 18. And the Lord God said, it's not good that man should be alone. Alone is the contraction. It means all one will make him a helpmate for him. All right, so now God is thinking about a wife for this man. Question. Whose idea was Eve? Wait a minute. It was God's idea. It was God's idea. Now, hear what I'm saying. I got this from Brother Copeland. Well qualified. Now, maybe you ought to believe this.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

All right.

[Bill Winston]

You have never had one original thought.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Never.

[Bill Winston]

Isaiah 55, verse 8. For my thoughts are not your thoughts. And my ways are not your ways, saith the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and thoughts than your thoughts. Now, here's what I'm saying. God did Adam's thinking. Yes, sir. Come on, make it plain.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Now, how do you think he can.

[Bill Winston]

Name an animal he never saw? Come on, somebody, somebody got to answer this question.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

God will teach you everything from what to name your kids. Cause some of these names I done heard. I said, lord have mercy, Jesus. But I'm saying, he'll tell you what to name them.

[Bill Winston]

Because many times the name has a.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Lot to do with their future.

[Bill Winston]

That's right. That's right.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Look what God says here.

[Bill Winston]

Numbers, chapter 23, verse 19. God is not a man that he should lie. Neither the Son of man that he should repent. Hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or has he spoken? Come on. And shall he not? What? Make it good? Over In Jeremiah, chapter 1, verse 12, he says, I watch over my word to make it good.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

See, I'm saying that God feeds you what to say. And your job is to release it. And you can Release a word that will shift the atmosphere in your whole jurisdiction. Here's what I said in Chicago now.

[Bill Winston]

We don't stop all that stuff going on in Chicago. I got the word working.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

I stood up in that pulpit and I said, let me tell you something.

[Bill Winston]

We are going to turn these prisons into boarding schools.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Right now. We have been called to bring financial.

[Bill Winston]

Literacy.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

To the supermax. This is the hardened people. We already got what in there?

[Bill Winston]

Foundation class we were baptizing.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Come on now. We've teaching leadership now. It's been so effective until I say, can you come teach financial literacy in jail because you can speak to the atmosphere. Didn't God said, let there be the same spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you. He is waiting for you to say what you believe. Jesus taught it. He said, Whosoever Mark 11:23 shall say, Come on to this mountain, this impossible situation. Be thou removed, be thou cast into the sea. And shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that what he says will come to pass. He shall have.

[Bill Winston]

I'm giving you dominion over all the earth. All of the earth. All the earth. Anything the devil is doing, you can shut her down. You better hear what I'm telling you. That's why the scripture says, what is man, that thou art mindful of him. Psalm, chapter 8. Or the Son of man, that thou visited him. Thou has made him a little lower than God and has crowned him with.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Glory and honor.

[Bill Winston]

And put all the works under his hand. Look at Matthew's gospel, chapter 16, verse 19. And I'll give you the keys of the kingdom and whatever you bind on earth. Come on, help me. Now will be what bound in heaven. Whatever you loose on earth will be loosed where in heaven. Give me that same verse in the CEV translation. I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven. And God in heaven will allow whatever you allow on earth.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

But he will not allow anything you don't allow. He will not allow anything you will not allow. God is ahead over the heathen. The devil is not even on your level.

[Bill Winston]

I'm going to say it again.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

God said in Luke, chapter 10, verse 19. Behold, I give you power to tread on serpents, over scorpions, and over all the power of the devil. Come on. And nothing shall any means hurt you folks. Watch and see. You're going to get such a revelation. The fact that you are God's little G. Don't confuse it. You are little GS and a little G a God. One of the attributes of a God is a God can't die. Another attribute of a God. A God can't be cursed. Another attribute of a God. A God can't even get sick. I'm telling you, you are unsickable. You are uncursable, do you hear? And the devil can't kill you. Those days are over.

[Bill Winston]

Is this the right group I'm talking to? No force can stop you from having what you are seeing. Saying no force. Come on, doc. You ought to go in your house speaking stuff. Come on, go in that job speaking stuff.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Go to your business.

[Bill Winston]

Decreeing a thing you do, every thing gets in line to fulfill what you have decreed. Genesis, chapter three and verse one. Now, the serpent was more subtle than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made. And he said unto the woman, yea, hath God said, you shall not eat of the tree of. And the woman said unto the serpent, we may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden trees now, but of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God had said, you shall not eat of it, neither shall you touch it, lest you die. Here's a serpent. The serpent said unto her, the woman, you shall not surely die. For God does know the day you eat thereof. Then your eyes will be open. Glory to God, and you shall be as gods. Let me ask you a question. Were they already as God? Satan is always trying to get you to go after something you already have. Question. Where did Adam get his thoughts from to name the animals? Where did Eve get her thoughts from to commit to trespass? All right, so you know the thoughts are coming from one place the other. Now, how can I know God's thoughts one way. Second Corinthians, please. Second Corinthians and chapter 10, verse 3. He says, for though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God. To the pulling down of strongholds, casting down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ. And you can go on from there. Notice what I'm going to do. I'm going to know enough of the word of God to know that I just got some fake news. I'm going to know enough of the word of God to know that what.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

This devil just said about my body, what this devil just said about my future, what this devil just said about my business, what this devil. Come on now. Cause faith begins where the Will of God is known. See, if you're not sure, then you where's the faith for that? So the enemy will talk to you.

[Bill Winston]

And tell you and suggest things to.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

You that are not God at all.

[Bill Winston]

He didn't come to Eve with a red suit on and some horns and a tail.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

It came in the way of suggestions. Suggestions. And they threw all this stuff on tv. Oh, you got. You got.

[Bill Winston]

You got asthma. You got lumbago.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

You got authorized. You got. I'm telling you. And that stuff is smoking. But I'm saying right now, you know what you got. You got the Holy Ghost. Come on. You got health. Come on. You got prosperity.

[Bill Winston]

Now decree it into manifestation. Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Last place, Matthew's Gospel, you know, BW will give you the Word. I said you gonna get the Word here.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Amen.

[Bill Winston]

Come on down. You keep hollering at me. Come on down here. Whoever that is, come on down. Come on down here.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Come on.

[Bill Winston]

Doc, that brother's under the influence. Okay, now, I'm talking about the Word. Now I'm talking about in the Word.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

That's all right. Listen, what happened when they got that.

[Bill Winston]

Man and four of them got him.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

On a bed and couldn't take him.

[Bill Winston]

In by the door?

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Didn't they try to take him in? They couldn't get in. Too many people in there just looking. Don't plan to do anything with the Word. Just in there looking. So they gonna do something with this Word. So they gonna get under the influe and they going up on the roof. Tore the roof open and let him down in. Who in here got some crazy faith.

[Bill Winston]

All right, let me just read this last one.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

I told you I could beat up.

[Bill Winston]

He came to put you on fire.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Do you realize that when I was early in the faith and I went.

[Bill Winston]

To a meeting and the guy was talking about an experience that he had. He was a preacher. An experience that he had.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

The place was so in terms of the Word of God, he said the fire trucks came three different times because they said people had reported blazes coming from the roof. Tongues of fire, glory to God. All right, look what it says here.

[Bill Winston]

In Matthew chapter 12. All right, you with me? All right, I'm start reading here. Matthew, chapter 12. And let's start here at verse 34. O generation of vipers. How can you, being evil, speak good things out of the abundance of the heart. What happens? Your mouth speaks. A good man out of the good treasure of the heart brings forth good things. An evil man out of the evil treasure of the heart brings forth evil things. All right, now remember what I said. You are self contained. Create means to bring forth that a good man out of the good treasure, let's call treasure. Deposit out of the good deposit will bring forth good things out of the abundance of the heart. Come on. Help. Help me. The mouth is going to spit. So notice inside. Inside of you is going to be your future. Your future is going to be in your heart. And it's going to be up to you to bring it forth. Mainly by the words that you say. It's called creation. Are you with me here? You're bringing forth hidden stuff. Got it? So Adam was going to create his reality. He was going to turn waste places into gardens. Now, here's what I want to let you know. A good man out of the good deposit brings forth good things. My future is in my heart. Watch this. Not in your hands. I don't care who it is. Nobody can stop you from reaching your destiny. But you. Two people said things. One said, we're grasshoppers, they'll slaughter us. The other said, let us go up at once and possess it, for we are well able. Watch this. The masses even tried to stone them, but they couldn't. Because Nobody, not even 3 million people in your nation can stop you from reaching your destiny. But you, Joshua and Caleb, because of what they created, is the reality that they walked in. Since you're going to create something, stop creating something small. Go for it. My name is Bill Winston and I approve this message.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Give God praise and thank him for it. Come on. Give God praise and thank him for it. Help. Now, here's what we're going to do.

[Bill Winston]

We gonna spend one moment because you've just got the word. Am I right? We're gonna spend about 30 seconds praising God.

[Co-Host/Guest Speaker]

Let's give him some praise. Praise God. Come on. Let's give him some praise. Come on. We gonna give 30 seconds of praise. Come on. That means that you receive it. That means it's gonna manife life. That means this is the last day you're gonna go through what you've been going through. Come on. Almost 30 seconds. Almost. Come on, give him praise. Come on. The walls of Jericho are coming down. They're coming down. They're coming down. Now. Give him a shout. Glory to God. Glory to God.

[Bill Winston]

Hello, partners. Bill Winston here. I want to give a shout out to you and let you know I love you. Hallelujah. I'm telling you I have you in my heart. When we came here, we came here with $200 it came from Minneapolis to Chicago. 200, didn't have anything. I mean, I'm hoping somebody send me some money from somewhere because God called us to preach and we knew we had to obey God and we just needed that financial resource to help us. Well, I went down and preached. Little place, little storefront church on the west side of Chicago. Tough area. We preached and God worked miracles. And the person said, I'm going to turn this place over to you. Praise God. Well, she had a few people there and none of them had a bank account. I don't think, you know, so that was our start. But look how what happened. All of a sudden God connected us on with a few partners and more partners and then more partners. Look at us now. Look at the 33 acres. Look at Malaysia, look at Africa. You're sending us everywhere. And look what God is doing. Look at the souls that he's winning. Look at the minds that he's shifting because of what you have done through me. Partnership, it's a fellowship, it's a closeness. It's like us and the Holy Ghost and you praise God. So what am I saying? I'm saying now we want to do more and we want to increase our partnership. He said, go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Folks, that's not an option, that's a mandate. Well, you working, you're providing the resources and you're sending me. Here I am, Lord, send me. And that's what I'm doing. And because of it, whatever I get, you get as well. Just like a company, you invest in a company, when the company grows, your stake in it grows. Same thing. You're investing in the gospel. I just want to again, thank you so much. Just every now and then, take time, just reach out to you, tell you thank you so much. I love you. You're in my heart. Let's keep going, let's don't stop. Time is short. We got to finish the work that he's called us to do. This is Bill Winston saying, I love you, my wife loves you and that Jesus is Lord and keep walking by faith. Glory to God.

[Bill Winston]

Hello, this is Bill Winston. Let me ask you a question. Do you sense something missing in your life? I mean, you've been searching and buying it, whatever you do, but there's still a void somewhere. Well, I can guarantee you this. God has a place inside of all of us that only he can fill. When I was in my life, I mean, I'd gone to places and relationships and all kinds of things, but nothing satisfied. One night a lady took me to a meeting in Chicago and I confessed Jesus as my Lord and Savior, he came into my heart. Once he did that, everything was settled. I tell you, from there on, I mean the world just opened up to me, ideas, everything else I'm saying to you, I'm not sure what you're looking for, but I guarantee you, if you don't have Jesus, something major is missing. Let's I invite you right now to just say, jesus, come into my life. Live your life in me and through me forever. Jesus name, Amen. If you said that prayer, I want to send you my book. It's called Born Again and Spirit Filled. Now it tells you what the next steps are. As a born again believer, I want to be the first to say welcome to the family of Almighty God. God bless you.
