Congregation Member (7:39)

Yes. Yes. Amen.

Nancy Dufresne (7:42)

Now, I like this statement that one particular minister made about Kathryn Kuhlman and. And said her fellowship with God made it easy for others to receive their miracle. Couldn't we say this Jesus fellowship with God made it easy for all the people that came across his ministry to receive their miracle? They received because of Jesus fellowship with God because they didn't know how to approach the Father. They didn't know how to release their faith. They didn't know how to receive. Jesus had his fellowship with the Father in such a place that people who got around him were blessed by his fellowship. Can I say this? Allow your fellowship with your Father to change other people's lives, not just your lives. Amen. But Jesus himself still had to become skillful with the power of God because why he was born as a man. He had to start the same way you and I had to start, he wasn't born with the knowledge of the Word. He had to find himself in the Word. He had to see himself in the Word. You know why people have a poor self image. They haven't found themselves in the Word yet. They only know themselves after the flesh. And then therefore they struggle with a self image and not feeling worthy and they step back from the greatness of the plan of God for themselves. But Jesus had to find himself in the Word and become skillful with that Word. We can see a progression, particularly if we look at him when it comes to raising the dead. The first instance of somebody coming back to life under Jesus ministry was Jairus daughter. And notice what Jairus came and said. My little daughter lieth at the point of death. She's not dead yet, she's on her deathbed. And while they're talking and while they're journeying to his house, of course the woman with the issue of blood stops and interrupts the that process, receives her healing. Jesus is not in a rush, he's not pressed. And he stops and says, let's have a testimony meeting.

Congregation (10:14)

Why?

Nancy Dufresne (10:15)

Because faith is not. Could we say it this way? Faith is not unsettled. And he's giving Jairus a lesson. Here you're going to sit and you're just. Now Jairus is. I mean how easy it would be for him to say, come on lady, come on, tell it, tell it, tell it. But Jesus is giving him the opportunity to get his faith fed on the way because he's going to see the result of power and it's going to encourage his faith. So while this woman with the issue of blood is giving her testimony, testimony of healing, people come up with a report and say to Jairus, don't bother the Master any longer, your daughter is dead. The amplified says Jesus, overhearing, but ignoring what they said, overhearing but ignoring what they said, said to Jairus, only believe. Now notice this. So when Jairus came, she's at the point of death now she's already died. So when Jesus gets to Jairus house, what's the condition? She's dead, but she's still warm, right? She hasn't even been cleansed, she hasn't been removed from the house or anything else. She's still warm on the bed. And he speaks, he takes her by the hand. She gets up, she's raised up. He returns her to her parents. The next one of being raised from the dead. How many know that took power? It doesn't matter that she was still warm. It took Power. The next instance we see of someone being raised from the dead is when he comes into a town and there is a funeral procession and there's a widow woman and she is burying her only son. I know. And Jesus walks up to the casket while he's not buried yet. But he's been dead several days. The viewing has happened. All of the Jewish rites have gone on, you know, that they do with the burying of the dead. But he's not buried yet. Jesus walks up to the casket, puts his hand on it, says, young man, I say arise. Get up. And he returned the son to the mother. Meaning this. Parents aren't meant to bury children. That's out of divine order. Amen. Parents are not meant to to bury their children. So now we see that one being raised from the dead and he's been dead a little bit longer. And then we see the next one being raised from the dead, and that's Lazarus. When he gets to Lazarus, he's already been dead several days. And they said he's been buried and he stinketh. You so appreciate the family telling him that he stinks by now. What are they saying? The process of death has been worked longer now. But notice this. Every time Jesus is confronting death, they've been dead a little bit longer. A little bit longer. What's happening? We're seeing Jesus skill develop in the face of death. Why is his skill developing in the face of death? Because he himself will have to be raised. And he's going to that grave knowing I've got skill over death. Amen.

Congregation (13:47)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (13:48)

Jesus had to grow in skill. That's what I'm trying to say. Jesus had to become skillful with power. And can I tell you what faith is? Faith is experienced. You're not skillful till you have experience. You're not skillful because you hear a sermon. You listening to me is not giving you one ounce of experience. You listening to me is not giving one ounce of skill. All I'm giving you is instruction how you can have experience, how you can have skill. It's not enough to hear it. You have to take what's heard and apply it. That's how you have experience and gain skill with the power of God. Amen.

Congregation (14:34)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (14:36)

Praise the lord. So in First Corinthians, chapter 2, verse 4 and 5, again, Paul said, my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration. Couldn't we say he had some skill to be able to demonstrate, but in demonstration of the spirit? And a power that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. Now go with me, if you would, to the book of Acts, chapter six. Acts, chapter six. We were ministering last night and we were talking about that. The power of God is already present. Amen. And I want to again quote what Jesus told Dad Hagin on one occasion. He said, when I was on the earth, I was the power of God. If people needed power, they had to get to where I was. He said, that's why the multitudes thronged me. And he said, but now that the Holy Ghost is present, he is everywhere in the earth. Therefore, power is present, present everywhere in the earth. So to tell you this power is in your home right now, Holy Ghost, power is in your home. Why? Because the glory of the Lord fills the earth. How many of you know the anointing is the glory? Amen. The anointing is the glory. And wherever the Holy Ghost is, the anointing is. Amen. And Jesus said, you shall be anointed with the Holy Ghost and with power. Right? And so wherever the Holy Ghost is, power is present everywhere. That's why you can get saved at the grocery store. You can get saved down at the mall. You can get saved just in someone's home. You don't have to be in a church building. Why? Because power is present everywhere. Just because power is present, though, doesn't mean it's coming to manifestation. I remember when I was preaching in our congregation years ago on the power of God. I was telling them that the power of God is present. Become skillful with the power that's around you and in you 24 hours a day. You don't have to wait till Sunday to have the pastor pray for you. You don't have to wait till Sunday to bring someone to church. Yes, it's right to bring them. But they can have their need met on Thursday. They don't have to wait till Sunday. If you will become skillful with the power that's already present. You don't have to draw on the pastor's skill. You can develop your own skill. Amen. And so I was teaching them, become skillful with the power that's already present in you and around you. Because the Holy Ghost is in you. You've got power because the Holy Ghost is here on the earth. There's power in your kitchen, in your car, at your place of business, in your family room. There's power right there. The only thing is, is that it's not in manifestation. Just like your house can be wired with power, but it won't be a manifestation until you flip a light switch on. Isn't that right? When you flip a switch, then it comes into manifestation, and then you're blessed by that power. Well, even so, it's not enough that we're wired with power. We have to know how to flip the switch. We have to know how to cause that power to come into manifestation. And it's faith that brings it into manifestation. God said to me, though, as I was preaching to our congregation, because I was telling them the power is present. I'd been preaching on it for weeks. And then this one Sunday, I got up and I made the statement, let the power fall. These words kept coming out of my spirit. Let the power fall. Let the power fall. And I'm having a conversation with God in my heart because I'm going, wait a minute. I've been telling him it's present, but out of my spirit I'm hearing these words, let the power fall. Giving the implication that it hadn't even come yet, but we're wanting it to fall. And so I said to God, have I been preaching this wrong? And he said to me, in just this, you know, when God speaks to you, it just drops in you. And he said to me, it's just like a child at a birthday party if they have a pinata for that child. And he said, inside that pinata is candy and goodies and treats. And although the pinata is in the room, nobody's partaking of it until it falls open. And he said it's present, that pinata is in the room. The treats are in the room, but. But they're not accessible until that pinata is opened up. He said, it's the same thing with the power of God. It's present, but it's not accessible until someone strikes it and it begins to flow. And then he said this. And reminding me of this, he said about a. He said, a child will take a stick and hit that. And it's not only the child that hits it, that opens it up, that gets to collect the stuff that's in it. When. When somebody strikes that power, everybody in the room. Everybody in the room. Everybody in the room can start gathering it up. Amen.

Congregation (20:07)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (20:08)

You don't have to be the one who knows. Now, see, why does God do that? That if we'll come to church and we'll be skillful at yielding, and if we could say this, releasing faith in the power of God, the power of God will Give manifestation. And people who just even got saved that day can gather up their healing. They can gather up their miracle. They don't have to understand it. They don't have to know how it works. But it's just flowing because somebody opened it up. And just because power is present doesn't mean it's in manifestation. So that's what we have to understand. It's not just about getting power. It's about bringing that power into manifestation. Manifestation. And we have a part in that. It's not just about God causing things to manifest. It's about us releasing faith. Because when faith is released, that power is going to come into manifestation. Now notice this. If a pinata is hanging there in a house, in a backyard or something, and a child hits it, that pinata doesn't say, I'm not opening for you. That pinata has to open when it's hit. But we'll always dismiss ourselves from, well, it won't work for me. It won't happen for me. No. It is a divine law. When faith strikes the power of God, it will flow every time. When faith strikes the power of God, it will flow every time, whether you feel like it or not. Because it's faith that activates power. And God said to me that day, he said, you, words are the stick that strikes the power of God, just as your words of faith is the stick. Because a child has to strike that pinata with something that has enough force to break it open, right? And he said, words of faith are the stick that strikes the power of God that will bring it into manifestation. So many times people are just wanting God, just send my miracle. Just manifest my miracle. And he's waiting for you to strike that power that's already in your room. Amen. Can I tell you this? And I don't mean to be unkind when I say say it, but it's the truth. And we have to renew our minds to this. Because the greater one is in us. Everything of the greater one is in us. Healing is in us. Prosperity is in us. The wisdom, the mind of Christ is in us. He's been made unto us. Wisdom, it's in us. Then why isn't it flowing? Because people aren't drawing on it. Why doesn't power flow? People aren't drawing on it. They're not bringing it in manifestation. They're not striking it. They're not saying words of faith. The wisdom of God doesn't come because you got smart. The wisdom of God comes because you release faith in that wisdom. That's in you to flow, and it'll flow up. Amen. But I say this not to hurt people, but we need to think right. Every Christian who died prematurely died with healing in them. Every Christian who went under financially, went under with prosperity in them. Why? Because the greater one's in them. And he's already blessed us with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Amen. We're blessed with all these things. It's not about getting God to give it. It's about us becoming skillful with releasing and causing it to come into manifestation. And it's faith that brings it into manifestation. Amen.

Congregation (23:54)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (23:55)

Now, are you with me? In Acts, chapter six. Now, in verse one, we see this. That there became increase. This is talking about the church. And in the days of the early church, there was increase happening. And in this day of increase and multiplication, there arose a murmuring. Notice what the devil does whenever increase is happening, Tries to bring strife and division. Just know this. Strife and division shuts down increase. That's why we cannot afford to allow strife and division in our local churches, in our congregations. Because it will shut down. Increase numerical increase, financial increase. The increase of the gifts of the Spirit.

Congregation Member (24:42)

Spirit.

Nancy Dufresne (24:43)

The increase of revelation. Amen. The increase of faith. Any strife and contention will shut it down. And so this is what happens. This is a strategy. We see how the enemy works. When increase comes, he tries to insert some strife and notice what was happening. It was racial strife. This stuff isn't new. Can I tell you something? Fox News, CNN and all these other news stations, they provoke racial strife. They provoke it. Why? So that they can get ratings. Don't you fall into that mess that's beneath you. You've been raised and seated with Christ. We're above all that mess. We are brothers and sisters in Christ. It doesn't matter what color you are. It doesn't matter. Your back. And if we will quit talking about our difference and talk about that we are one body. We are one body. I don't permit that stuff in our church. I don't permit it. Nobody's going to promote any kind of racial bend in our church. Why? Because we are one body in Christ. For us to get divisive over color would be the same as us. But getting divisive over the color of the house we live in. Well, you don't live in a house that's colored like mine. You mean you got a blue house? Oh, no. I can't fellowship with you. Wouldn't that be crazy? On a block you'll Have a yellow house, a white house, a blue house, a gray house, a brown house. And we never say, oh, because the color of your house, I don't fellowship with you. That's how small it is for racial division. It's just the color of your house. And isn't it more interesting to see all the varied colors? Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Amen. That's a plus, that's a positive, that's not a negative. We love that. We don't allow the devil to use colors to divide us. If the color of the house doesn't divide us, why would the color of flesh divide us? You want to know why people don't think? Right. And in the early days of the church, there was this wrong thinking. And it started. It started having an effect on the kind of increase God could work. In the early days of the church, it was racial division. The devil loves the racial card. Don't you ever hold racial card? Don't you ever. That's the devil's card, not yours. Amen. Listen, you say, well, yeah, maybe you haven't run into racial stuff. Can I tell you, go ahead and marry somebody 20 years older and see what people say. Be a woman pastor and see what people say. There's always something that's different about your life than somebody else's that people can find a pick on. Even if it's not color, it's always something else. You know how I pastored as a woman? I ignored it. I didn't bring attention to that. I was a woman. I don't care. I don't care. If I don't care, no one else will. And if not, if you won't make a big deal about what color you are or not, no one else will either. But you have to understand society, out in the public and in the media, they feed that, they fuel that because they need ratings. They need division to have a show. They don't have a broadcast without strife. They don't have a broadcast without strife. It's all based on strife. Don't sit and feed that stuff into your family and into your children and all that mess and try to divide this thing up at home. Well, it'll shut down the flow of the power of God. Amen.

Congregation (28:54)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (28:56)

I really think that in our congregation, excuse me, on the staff, I think white people are the minority in our staff. It doesn't matter to me. It doesn't matter to me. Amen. I just want God's choice in that place. Whoever God appoints, that's what I'm Interested in. Amen.

Congregation (29:16)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (29:19)

And so anyway, this is what they ran into. And this is what we see in Acts, chapter six, that there was this racial card that tried to come up and start dividing. Well, our widows of our race aren't getting what your widows of your race are getting. And the disciples had the wisdom of God of how to shut that mess down. Shut it down? Why? Because the power of God will not come into manifestation in a setting of division. Can I say this? In your home, get rid of strife. Get rid of division. Because you cannot receive your miracle when there's strife. In your home, you cannot receive healing where there's strife. You cannot receive finances where there's strife. If you're going to have fussing and fighting going on in your marriage, you will keep yourself broke. No amount of sowing will undo what strife will work. Well, praise the Lord. I think you liked last night better talking about the Holy Ghost coming to the earth, right? But if we're going to be skillful with power, we have to know what short circuits the power of God. What shuts down the power of God. Amen. You can't. You can't have fussing at home and then go out and expect God to bless you when you lay hands on somebody. Can't do it. Can't do it. Amen.

Congregation (30:40)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (30:43)

And so the disciples had the wisdom of God of what to do to shut this down. And we see this in the third verse of Acts, chapter six. Wherefore, brethren, look you out. Among you seven men of honest report. Number one, honest report. That means that they don't have a bad reputation. That means in their business, that means in their personal affairs, they don't have a bad report in the community and among the other believers, they're not known as somebody that's kind of working a shady deal in their business or they're not handling their finances cleanly. Said they have to have an honest report. The second question qualification is that they be full of the Holy Ghost. The third qualification, they be full of wisdom. Amen. Now notice this. He said, you look out among you seven men that have these three qualifications. And then we'll appoint them over the business. What business? Feeding the widows. The business of doling out the food. Why? So that these. The men who have these qualifications will shut down the division and the strife. Notice when you're full of the Holy Ghost, you're not in strife. Notice when you're full of wisdom, you're not in strife. Amen. Notice when you're honest. You're not full of strife. So it says in verse four. But we will give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the word. Meaning this. We have a function to fulfill. And we can't fulfill the business function and the spiritual function at the same time. So we're having you to share in so that we can do our part. You can do your part. Now notice this. I like how they said, look you out among you seven men of honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom. Notice he was telling them you pick them out from among yourselves. The disciples, the apostles weren't the one picking up. They told the congregation you pick out. Why? Because, can I tell you this, the apostles were not getting a true read on the people. As a pastor, I never got a true read on people in the congregation. Because everyone's on their best behavior around me. Everybody. And rightly so. That's appropriate. They didn't come to me fussing and fighting and, you know, talebearing and striping. Because everyone is on their best behavior around leadership. Which your mama should have taught you that, right? But these men weren't looking for somebody who was just on their good behavior around leadership. This is their manner of life. This is how they are every day around everyone. They're not just performing for leaders. This is how they live. And the congregation is going to know how you live because they're the ones that talk to you in the parking lot and they're the ones that listen. It matters how you conduct yourself around the brethren. It matters. It matters that you walk in love and that others know that you're a person of love. It matters that you're kind. It matters that you're upright in your business. Because other people know. Amen. And so we see this in verse five. And the saying pleased the whole multitude and they chose Stephen, a man. Look at this. Full of faith and full of the Holy Ghost. Now notice, they didn't even give being full of faith as one of the three requirements. It just said they had be honest report, full of the Holy Ghost, full of wisdom. Faith wasn't mentioned until they get to Stephen. And they say they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and full of the Holy Ghost. In verse eight, Acts, chapter six, verse eight. And it says, stephen, full of faith and power. So now in verse five, they said he was full of faith and full of the Holy Ghost. In verse eight, they say he's full of faith and full of power. Why does it say that? Because to be full of the Holy Ghost is to be full of power. They're one and the same. They're interchangeable terms. If you're full of the Holy Ghost, you are full of power. You say, I don't know if I'm full of the Holy Ghost. They were all filled with the Holy Ghost and began to speak in other tongues. If you can take off speaking right now in other tongues, the Bible calls you full of the Holy Ghost. Let's just do that. Now, since you can do that, you know what that's a sign of? You're full of power. Now go do something with that power.

Congregation Member (35:29)

Go do something with that power.

Nancy Dufresne (35:35)

Amen. It doesn't say they're full of feeling. They're full of feeling. The Holy Ghost. They're full of feeling. Power didn't say anything about them feeling like they were full of it. They were full of it. Amen. So again, verse eight, it says, stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders and miracles among the people. Isn't that something? He did great. He was. He was just getting picked out to hand out food. And before long we see miracles being worked. Amen.

Congregation (36:15)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (36:18)

Now look again at verse three. Wherefore, brethren, look you out. Among you seven men number one honest report, full of the Holy Ghost and wisdom. So there's seven men that are honest. They have honest dealings and honest reputation among the body and in the community. Then they have. These men are full of the Holy Ghost and they are full of wisdom. But we never hear report that the other six did any miracles. Only Stephen did miracles. Can I tell you this? The others were full of the Holy Ghost. You know what that means? They were full of power, but they weren't doing miracles. Why weren't they doing miracles? Because it doesn't say that they were full of faith. It does not say they were full of faith. They were full of power. That's why Christians who are full of power aren't producing. They're not full of faith. Yet faith has to be added to the power for the power to come into manifestation and benefit. Amen. Meaning this power alone is not enough. Power is God's side. Isn't that right? You're full of God's side, but faith is man's side. To receive a miracle, you need God's side and man's side. And too many times religion sits back and waits for God's side. You say, why don't we're just waiting for God to do it? Waiting for God to heal, waiting for God to supply. And they sit back and waiting for God and they Put everything and all the responsibility on God. But to have a miracle. There's a God's side and a man's side, and that God's side is power. Your side is not power. You're wired with power. But that's not because of you. That's because of him, the greater one in you. But our side is that we have to bring faith. Now, there's a product on the market. I don't know if it's still on the market. I saw it advertised years ago, and it's a real handy product for people who are not graceful in the kitchen. And it was a jug, you know, like a water jug. It was a jug, and it had dry ingredients in it. That's all it had, was dry ingredients. And it was to make pancakes. All you had to do was take that jug with dry ingredients and just stick it under the faucet. Just fill it up with water, shake it up, pour it out. You got you pancakes. Are they any good? I don't know. I'm not endorsing the product. I'm just saying that there was such a product on the market. Could we say you can't get much easier than that. Can I tell you this? If you decide, you know something, I need some vegetables. Let's put some V8 in with that. You start mixing V8 in with that. Shake it up, pour it out. You're not going to have something edible. Why? Because you can't just mix any old thing with it. You got to mix what they tell you to mix with it. You can't say, well, you know what? I am a sugar addict. So let's put some seven up in that. Well, no, you don't want to do that either, because you have to mix the right thing for the recipe to work. There is a recipe to power, and the thing, the ingredient that has to be added is faith. You can't add worry to power and get a miracle. You can't add strife to power and get a miracle. You can't add unforgiveness to power and get a miracle. You can't add offense to power and get a miracle. There's only one thing you can add to power and get a miracle, and it's called faith. That's it. That's why you want to get rid of all faith.

Congregation Member (40:52)

Because.

Nancy Dufresne (40:54)

Have you ever gone to a restaurant and they allow you to get your own drink? They have the drinks there. Well, I go there and I always get water. You know, I just push. There's a button there by one of the other drinks. And if you're not careful and you put that cup too far, it can push the lever for the other drink to come out. While you're putting water and it leaches into your water and you got like watered down Dr. Pepper, you know, you got about, you know, an eighth of a cup of Dr. Pepper and you got, you know, a big cup of water and it's nasty now because something leached into the purity. That's why you gotta get rid of offense, you gotta get rid of unforgiveness because it will leach into your faith. When you try go to try to apply faith, it will leach into it even if you didn't intend to because it was in your heart. And you go to speak out of your heart and you go to speak and release faith words and up can come thoughts and feelings of unforgiveness and thoughts of unforgiveness and speaking words of unforgiveness at the dinner table. And I can't believe she did that to me. And I can't believe what they did. And all of that'll come up. But bless God, Father, praying over the food, we say that all the money will come, It'll come. And then you're done praying over your food and all of a sudden you say, can you believe we got to go see Aunt Mabel? You remember what she did three years ago? Ah, you just can't do it. Those things are leaching into each other. And it was short circuit power. Because power only flows when faith is added to it. Amen. Praise the Lord. Now, can I tell you this? As you're growing up as a young believer, God will allow you to come and partake of your pastor's faith, add his faith to your need. But as you get older and grow up spiritually, God won't let you borrow someone else's faith. After a time, he's going to put a demand on you for your faith. And if you haven't been feeding your faith and developing your faith, when it comes time to add your faith to his power, there would be a shortage. Dad Hagin talked about his sister years ago who was diagnosed with terminal cancer when he was in our church. Dad Hagin was in our church in 2003 and he was preaching about this with his sister. He said, I prayed for her and God healed her of terminal cancer. And he said five years later, said she was again diagnosed with. He said it wasn't even related. It was a totally different kind of cancer. He said, this time I went to Pray for her. And he said, I couldn't get any results. And God said, no. He said, she's going to die. And dad Hagin said, God, why is she going to die? And he said, well, she's had five years to feed her faith. She has experienced my healing power, my miracle power. Whenever you believed for her, for her faith healing, she experienced. She got acquainted with me and my power. But she didn't do anything with her faith in those five years. He said, she could have had your books for free. She could have had all your CD messages or your tape messages for free. And she didn't care to even get them because what's she doing? She's resting back, not developing her faith because she's used to using somebody else's. But there comes a day. There comes a day when God will allow you to have your faith joined to someone else. But there comes a day when he's going to just require it of you. Amen. So he's going to want you to bring your faith. Why? Because your faith will work. He wants you to have experience with him and his power. Amen. I asked dad Hagin the question. I said, now, dad, when we got in the back room, I said, you were talking about your sister and I said, can you tell me how did you pray? When you were praying for her healing, how did you pray? And he said this. He said, I said, did you pray in the spirit? Did you pray in tongues? Did you lay hands on her? Did you make confessions? How did you pray? Because I want to know whenever you're able to use your faith for someone else, I said, how did you pray? He said, I did it all. I just threw everything at it. Why did you do that? Well, something will stick. Praying in the spirit, lay hands on them, make confessions, worship God, just do it all. If he doesn't tell you specifically what to do, just do it all. Add everything you got. Because faith can be released through worship. Faith can be released as you lay hands on somebody. Faith can be released when you pray. Faith can be released when you make confession, Right? So what you just got to do is get that faith attached and mixed in with that power. Now what does it say over In Hebrews chapter I believe chapter four, verse two, it said the word preached. Now talking about the Hebrews delivered out of Egypt, the word preached did not profit them. Why not? Being mixed with faith in them that heard it. It's not just enough that faith is mixed with your pastor's power your has to be mixed in you. Now look at this, it said the word preached did not profit them. Why? Because it wasn't mixed with faith. Faith activates power. Power lies dormant until faith shows up. Amen. The power that's in you is dormant until faith shows up. The power that's around you is dormant until faith shows up. But it said this. The word preached did not profit them. Isn't that a sad statement? The word that is the power of God. There's power. God's power is in his word. There's enough power in His Word to fulfill that word. But it didn't profit them. You go, wow, that's sad. Well, that's still happening today. People come to church, they hear the sermon and they're not profiting. They hear it, they're not profiting. Why? Because they walk out and they don't mix their faith with what they heard in church. It's not enough to hear a sermon. It's not even enough to appreciate a sermon. It's not even enough to admire a sermon. Can I tell you this? It's not even enough to take notes on the sermon. Some people are good at journaling, but journaling is not the release of faith. If we're not careful, we'll think just because we got good notes on the sermon that it's going to work. No, no. There's one thing that has to be mixed in with what you hear and it's called faith. Now how do you mix your faith in? It's exactly what God said to me that day about that. Words of faith strike the power of God. Words of faith. Words of faith. And then not only that, you can have actions of faith, but can I tell you this? If you're going to take actions of faith, they need to be spirit led. Actions don't just act, trying to force God into manifesting something for you. So many times people who were maybe bound by addictions, they would throw out their cigarettes, they would throw out a certain, they would throw out the alcohol. But they're doing that trying to force God to do something for them. What you need to do is just let the spirit guide you. Let the spirit guide you. There's a lot of people who have died prematurely because they threw out their medicine. Because they heard somebody else say, throw out your medicine. Or they threw out their medicine and they were healed. The reason they were healed is because they were being led by the Spirit to do that. Amen. God will lead you. Follow the Holy Ghost on how to act. Don't decide how you're going to act. Follow the Holy Ghost, he will lead you on how to act. Dad Hagin told often as well as another preacher, this preacher that happened to, told often about how years ago this, years ago, in the early days that Rhema Bible Training center started, they had this faith minister to come and he was teaching the students and he said that he had an old car, you know, that wasn't in good shape and he was one day to speak, told him to sew that car, just give it to somebody. So he did and within a few days somebody gave him a brand new car. Well, he was telling that to the students. And most of those students had old beat up cars. So they see an opportunity to get them a new car. So so many of them started giving away their cars. And finally Brother Hagin had to give, get up and say, quit giving away your cars. They needed them to get to class, you know. He said, quit giving away your cars. Why? Because they heard somebody, they gave away their car and got a new one. So if I give away my car, I'll get a new one. But they didn't hear the part. The spirit of God told me, yes. So when I say act, don't you decide how to act. You dec, you need counsel from the Holy Ghost to counsel you on what your acts of faith that are to be mixed with power should be. Don't throw away your medicine unless the Holy Ghost tells you to. Amen. Don't give away your car unless the Holy Ghost tells you to. Because Brother Hagin said for the next year and a half those students were walking or what, or worse off than that, they become an imposition to someone else who now has to haul them around. Now it wasn't the preacher's fault. They just heard the part they liked and they decided if I act this way, I get what they got. But I just want you to know something that God said to me just a few days before I got here. He said, teach the people, make them to know that miracles come as a result of following the Holy Ghost. Be spirit led. They come when we follow the Holy Ghost. Amen. We don't just figure out something that is deep spiritually and just do it. We follow the Holy Ghost. We're to be spirit led. The sons of God are led by the Spirit of God. Amen. The sons of God are not leading the Spirit of God and so many are trying to lead him when it's your job to allow him to lead you. He knows where you're headed. You don't know where you're headed. You just think you know, but he really knows what the future holds for you and he will lead you. Amen. What to say, what to say. Let me tell you this, this was interesting. There's this one minister friend of mine and he was telling about how he had gone to a large ministers conference and they. I'm talking about some of the biggest ministries in the world were there and this one minister had had a revival. But at the end of it, he fell away from the Lord and basically it just all fell apart. And it became not a testimony for good, but a testimony of something else. And God said to this one friend of mine who was there because he said to God, how did that happen? And God said to him, he said, that man prayed for years for revival. I didn't tell him to pray for that. I didn't lead him to pray for that. He decided that. So a revival came because he released faith in it. But his foundation wasn't fortified to support a found to support a revival. And he said he decided he wanted a revival. He said if he had waited on me, I'd have told him when he was ready for a revival. You see, that's talking, talking about a ministry, but same thing for your life. Too many times. We think we're ready to own our own business. We're ready to buy that next house. We're ready to buy that car. Well, just follow him. He'll lead you. Amen. Look to the Holy Ghost because you have to add faith to power, not presumption to power, not zeal to power. So many people just are zealous. They want their own ministry. Listen, you know the last thing I want? My own ministry. Why? Because zeal is no substitute for the leading of the Holy Ghost. You can get excited about something, that doesn't mean God's telling you to do it. You can sit and fantasize about what it's going to look like when you have your own business and have your own ministry and how great it's going to be. But if the Holy Ghost isn't leading you to do it, you try to step out on that and there's nothing to support you and you'll fail. The Holy Ghost will lead you to do something because there's the word under you to support you. Amen. And if you do something on your own, there's not going to be the support or the foundation under you. Amen. Listen, we want miracles, but we have to be ready to cooperate with the Holy Ghost to receive miracles and to be a vessel that God can use. Why because you can't mix ill will with power. You can't mix. I want to have miracles with power. You can't mix offense. God will start dealing with us about things we need to cut away from our life if we're going to have miracles. Why? Because he doesn't want wrong things leeching into the flow of power in our lives.

Congregation (56:02)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (56:04)

Are you helped tonight? How to receive a miracle, but also how to minister a miracle. Miracles and faith are to go in two directions in the receiving and in the ministering. Practice receiving on your own life. Before you go out there and try to. Try to be a vessel.

Congregation (56:23)

Amen.

Nancy Dufresne (56:24)

Can I say this? Believe God for healing on your own body, not on your children. Practice on your children. I said don't practice on your children. Practice on your own body.

Congregation (56:36)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (56:38)

Well, even so, don't practice on the lives of others. Practice on your own life.

Congregation (56:42)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (56:45)

You have power. I said you have power. You're wired with power. The day you got born again, you got wired with power. But now we need to just keep filling up with faith. You've got faith on you. You've got faith in you. You've got the faith of God. But that faith needs to grow, doesn't it? We need for the rest of our life to be feeding our faith. Can I tell you this? The children have this idea that if you give them money out of your wallet, all of a sudden more money will appear in the place of that. But don't you know that once you take money out, something has to happen before money can go back in? Faith is the same. Once we spend faith. Faith doesn't just magically appear in its place. Faith has to be refilled and refilled and refilled every day. Every day, filling up. Amen. On the word. Speaking the word. Feeding on the word. Why? Because faith does not automatically appear. It comes as we feed ourselves. Amen.

Congregation (57:50)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (57:51)

Stand with me to your feet tonight. Father, we thank you for the opportunity to hear these things. It's a joy to hear the Word. It's a joy to receive of the Word. It's a joy to learn our part. Father, you're always faithful to do your part. Always faithful to do your part. Father, thank you for helping us learn our part. We purpose to have experience in the doing of our part. We purpose to be faithful in the doing of our part. And, Father, as we leave this place, we purpose that we will be doers of what we hear. We'll be doers of what we hear, we'll be doers of what we hear, we'll be doers of what we hear.

Congregation (58:42)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (58:43)

We will add our faith. We're not going to add the wrong thing. We won't add worry. We won't add fear. We get rid of those things. We forbid those things in our lives. But we want to be full of faith. Full of faith. And we add that to the power of God. We thank you tonight, Father. We give you glory and honor. We give you glory and honor. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father. We thank you, Father. Throughout the week, we've ministered at different times to people who needed healing. Many of you have already said you've received healing. But if you're here tonight and you want hands laid on you for healing, you've not yet been ministered to for that, and you want to receive healing, we told you that on the last night we'd do that, and so we will do that. So if you're here and you want hands laid on you for healing, raise your hand if you would. I want to see how many that would involve for us tonight.

Congregation. Let's just worship the Lord with them.

Congregation (67:34)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (67:36)

Those of you who have had hands laid on you, it is not your job to get better. It is not your job to get rid of pain. It is your job to believe that the power of God is working in you and has made you whole. And it's working. It's working. It's working. And so all that's left is for you to say, thank you, Father, that it's working. Thank you, Father, that it's working. It doesn't matter how short a time or how long a time, that's not our business. Our job is to believe. We receive it. Amen.

Those in of you who had hands laid on you, you say it along with the rest of the congregation. The power of God is working in me. The anointing equals healing. The anointing equals miracles. And that anointing has destroyed every yoke. Therefore, I'm whole. I thank you that I'm whole. I thank you that I'm Whole. I thank you that I'm whole. I thank you that I'm whole.

We're not just joining it tonight. Amen. Every day, join your faith to the power of God. Every day, join your faith to the power of God.

How do you do that? I believe in the power of God. It's working right now. It's working right now in my business, in my finances, in my body, in my mind, in my family, in my children. It's working in my home. Amen. Every day. Every day. Every day. You say, well, I don't need anything. Yeah. This is how you keep from needing something.

Congregation (71:02)

Amen. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (71:11)

We're not praying for power. It's already present. It's already here.

Congregation (71:16)

The power's just waiting for faith to be mixed with it. That's us. That's our part. Amen.

Nancy Dufresne (72:08)

Pastor Ruby, I want to you. You to go. You stick out your hand. Those on the end of the aisle. Stick out your hand and she'll grab it and the power will flow. Don't just stand there like a stump and a post and hinder it. Don't be the clog in the drain. Yield to it. Respond to it.

Nancy Dufresne (76:46)

Now, I say this by the Spirit. It's time for you to change the way you think. It's time for you to change the way you've been praying. It's time for you to change the way you've been waiting for God to do something. It's time for you to take the knowledge of the word, the revelation of the Word, be the doer of the Word that you've heard and change things in your life. If you don't like it, change it. If you don't like it, change it. If you put up with it, you'll have it. If you refuse to put up with it, it'll change. So take your faith. Apply it to the power of God. Apply your faith to the Word of God. Apply your faith to that situation in your life and see it change. And quit waiting for God to do what he's authorized to be done at the hand of your faith.

Congregation (77:40)

Nancy Dufresne (77:48)

I remember. I hope you have heard the testimony of Norval Hayes. How his daughter had 47 growths on her hands. And he was praying for several years. Oh, God, heal my daughter. Oh, God, heal my daughter. Oh, God. And got no. Why? Because begging for God to do something is not going to get a result. You have to find out what he's already provided, and you lay hold of it. So one day he's walking through the den in his house, and when he makes one step, all of a sudden he steps into heaven. And Jesus is standing there. And Jesus said to him, how long are you going to put up with those growths on your daughter's hand? And Brother Norville said, I don't understand what you mean. He said, how long are you going to put up with those growths on your daughter's hands? He said, jesus, I don't understand what you're saying. He said, how long are you going to put up with those growths on your daughter's hands? And he taught him they're there because you're not using your authority. You're waiting for God to do something he's already authorized you to handle. So I have a sermon called, how long are you going to put up with? What is it that you've been putting up with? How long you going to put up with it? Amen. How long will it stay? As long as you put up with it. But we say, no more putting up with it. Why? Because we've learned. Add our faith to the power of God and that power, we'll deal with that situation. We're not putting up with what we've been living in for five years, 10 years. We're not putting up with never having enough money, not putting up with those same symptoms, those same conditions, not putting up with those same things. Why? Because power is available to destroy those things in our lives. Amen. And we're not going to just fall back on religion and say, we're waiting for God to do it. Waiting for God. God's waiting for us to apply our faith to His Word and to his power. How many of you know his word is the power of God?

Congregation (79:57)

Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (80:01)

It's time for my miracles.

Congregation Member (80:04)

It's time for my miracles. It's time for my miracles. It's time. It's time. It's time. Time.

Nancy Dufresne (80:16)

And if I could impress upon you, every day, apply your faith to his power. Every day, apply your faith to his power. Join your faith to his power. Why? Because when you do, you'll profit. You'll profit. The word preach did not profit those who didn't mix it. But if you do mix it, you will have prophetic Amen.

Congregation (80:41)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (80:41)

How many of you know healing is profiting? How many of you know deliverance is profiting? Increase and prosperity is profiting.

Congregation (80:50)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (80:52)

I receive my miracles. It's Time for them. I take them.

Congregation Member (80:59)

I take them. I take them. I take them. I take it. I take it. I take it. I take it. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I take it. I take it. I take it. I take it. I take it. Hallelujah.

Congregation (81:16)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (81:17)

Now, can I say something? People say, well, you don't have to jump and dance and all that weirdness. Can I say this? If you're not going to release your faith, don't jump and dance. Because just jumping and dancing doesn't mean anything if you don't attach faith to it. But it is one way we release our faith. Faith. We can say it's an act of faith. Just rejoicing. It's a rejoicing. Rejoicing is an act of faith.

Congregation Member (81:45)

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (81:59)

You say, how do you. How do you release your faith? While you're dancing, you focus on your spirit. You focus on your spirit. You don't focus on watching somebody else. You focus on your spirit, releasing the flow of life that's in your spirit. Amen. Releasing the flow of faith that's in your spirit.

Congregation Member (82:19)

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. It's time for my miracles. Time for my miracles. It's time for my miracles.

Nancy Dufresne (82:32)

It's time for my miracles. It's time. It's time.

Congregation Member (82:35)

It's time. It's time for time. It's time. It's time. It's time for my miracles. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (84:45)

People will, you know, people will say, say, you know, all that stuff's not necessary, but, you know, can I say this? Worry's not necessary. Being fearful, that's not necessary. But rejoicing as an act of faith, that's necessary.

Congregation (85:06)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (85:07)

Brother Copeland stood in our church and pointed at me and said, dancing in the Holy Ghost. Rejoicing. He said, now that's how you're going to get your buildings. That's how you're going to get stuff. Amen. What do you need dancing in? Rejoicing in Hallelujah.

Congregation Member (86:55)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (86:59)

What you dancing about? It's time for my miracle.

Congregation Member (87:06)

Every day.

Nancy Dufresne (87:07)

It's time for my miracles.

Every day. Every day. Every day.

Every day.

Congregation Member (87:12)

Nancy Dufresne (87:21)

Jesus, we say thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you for the great price that you paid. This is all about what you've done for us. This is all about what you have provided for us. This is what this is all about what you made ours. We're so grateful that you made us one with our Father. Thank you for the price that you paid. We honor that price. And we give you all worship. We give you all glory. We give you all honor. You are worthy. You are worthy. You are worthy.

Congregation Member (87:56)

You are.

Nancy Dufresne (87:57)

You are worthy. You are worthy. You are worthy. And we worship you. We worship you. We worship you.

Congregation Member (88:08)

We worship you, Lord. I just want to thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. We say thank you, Lord. We just want to thank you, Lord. Thank you, lord. Thank you. We say thank. Thank you, Lord. We just want to thank you, Lord. We just want to thank you. You. We just want to thank you.

Congregation (90:04)

We glorify you. We glorify you. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (90:17)

For the Lord is good and his mercy endures forever.

Congregation (90:24)

Amen.

Nancy Dufresne (90:25)

Surely goodness and mercy, it follows me all the days of my life. And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. As the amplified says, his presence shall be my dwelling place. Amen.

Nancy Dufresne (90:54)

Jesus, we love you, Father. We love you. Holy Spirit, we love you. We honor you. We so appreciate, so, so appreciate what you're working in us for. It is God who is working in us, both to will and to do of his good pleasure. And we give you thanks for that.

Congregation (91:20)

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (91:29)

Can I tell you this? Our lives are full with a lot of things. Our lives are full with important things, and some not so important. But nothing equals what's happened in these meetings. Coming together and spending time in the Word and under the tutor. Tutorship of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Nothing equals nothing in your life. Nothing in your day equals these. These things. In the spirit of God and in the presence of God, nothing, nothing comes near this. Amen. No new business, no new house, as wonderful as they are. And as we appear, appreciate that nothing comes near the value of this. Amen. We need to always remember that so that we don't put anything else in front of times like these. Amen.

Congregation (92:27)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (92:28)

Nothing comes close to as important as what's been done in this week of meetings. That's why we learn to set everything aside so that we can receive at times like this. Amen. You know how many times, how many people would love to know what we've been hearing and participate and flow in this? And we're here. We're here. We're here. And we appreciate that, don't we, that God's led us to this place so we can be here.

Congregation (92:56)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (92:57)

I say thank you again to my staff. Thank you. Thank you, thank you. Thank you to the Uraeus. Thank you so much. I appreciate them. They. I called them one day. I called about 1:30, and God had spoken to them the day before. Whatever Pastor Nancy wants to do in your building, offer it to her. And they sent me a letter, and it arrived at my office at 1:15 the next day. While Rochelle was reading the letter, I was calling them and saying, I have it in my heart to do a meeting and we would like to come in your building and do it. And they said, well, we already sent a letter yesterday, or they sent it at 1:15. God had spoken to them the day before. So God had us in mind. God had us in mind for this week of meetings. Thank you for being part of that. And the congregation of army of Love, thank you for that. And others who have come from other locations, thank you for that. We're just so grateful for this time of fellowship together. I don't have to know you personally to know that we've entered a place together in the spirit realm. Amen. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord. But we could just go on and keep going on. Keep going on. Bubby. My grandson said, can we stay another week? I don't know if he's trying to ditch school or if he likes the services, but whatever. Maybe we'll get to a time when God instructs us to do that. But for the week we've been here, it's been a complete joy and a complete delight and a refreshing.

Congregation (94:34)

Amen. Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (94:36)

Pastor, is there anything else you would like to say or anything? Are you good? Oh, thank you, thank you, thank you.

Congregation (94:45)

Hallelujah.

Nancy Dufresne (94:46)
