I said, yes Lord, I tore it up, threw it in the dirt box and I said, bless him anyway, and I left it there, I didn't declare war, I didn't get on the phone, I didn't get groups, I didn't start on the internet, you know, war breaks out, the whole world must know every word now, until in the end, war would have been in the blood flowing, everybody feels it, no, I just, tell you something that's going to shock you, your greatest triumphs in Christianity is when you do nothing, that's grace, you win the argument most times as a Christian beginning in your home, when you keep quiet, how many times that people stood up against me, and they will, they must, you put yourself in the front line of the battle no matter who you are, you carefully put yourself in the front line of God's battle on earth, do you honestly think the full bombardment of Satan is going to come against you through the most unexpected sources as it was with Jesus, if they did it to me they'll do it to you, he tells us, if you're faithful in proclaiming me and living me, they're going to do it to you, he tells us, so when it comes, well I'm sorry for the few occasions in the last 38 years of ministry that I did dare to say something back, I'm so sorry I ever did, but I do thank God for the many many times I just sat still, silent, prayerful, it wiped them out, totally, before we left the room, finished, no one would even consider them, just because I kept quiet, you know even a fool is looked upon as wise if he just, if only we'd listen to God, oh my, here in the USA, I've been privileged more than most priests on earth to come to your land, and other lands, other lands, 80 of the other lands that asked me we didn't ever go to, God just put it in my heart and Jenny's heart to come here for some reason because this is the only country on earth that the tapes, the messages don't stop here, America for some reason sends them across the whole world, so why should I go across the whole world, I come to the one nation that sends it to the whole world, because they're bigger than themselves, hallelujah, well, here in America, did it just be Don Covells, Aaron of the Baptists, flowers, chocolates, whew, that I got to forbid my children to even look at them, there's so many, in the rooms, Jessie's, Dolores's, Debbie's, Randy's, no, no, no, whoa, all hell has risen against me to destroy me and try and keep me from ever coming back to this country to such a degree, it's beyond belief, and it's beyond belief who did it, but God had taught me, keep quiet, leave the fighting to me child, what a lesson to learn, when he was reviled, reviled not again, when he suffered, he threatened not, but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously, just do it, Jesus did it, do it, there's of course a point, you have to be strong, but not in self -defense, not to protect your doctrine, your name, you, be careful, and so what did I do here in America, when doors shut, totally, whole movements, to who, one or two people, can shut the doors of whole movements, I could have stood up, and said, right, let's take one thing at a time, and wipe the floor with it, that they would still be running, not to be seen again in life, but I didn't, I let the door shut, you know why, because God, as it was happening on the wall in a block of a particular place I just happened to be staying, said be still, and know that I am God, and I said, yes Lord, I will, because I know even blocks and walls on mistakes and the sovereignty of God where I am, in the school of God, I learned that on a number of occasions, but I thank God, all things work together for the good to them that love God, in that room I looked there, and there was about, Jacob, no, not Jacob, Joseph says, they meant it for evil, God meant it for good, what men do against you, good is going to come, just give God a chance though, don't ruin it on the way and start fighting, well, what good comes out of people closing doors, let me tell you what good, suddenly other doors that always were there, but we never had time to consider, open, wide, and all to the astonishment of those who tried to shut the doors, 99 of all those people came to the other venues, the other places, I didn't lose anybody, apart from the handful, all I gained was double the amount, treble the amount of people across this land, and I never would have known had this not happened, do you honestly think God has lost control, I'll tell you what, don't blame him though, if you don't obey, when the devil sends his giants to take your eyes off God, obey, Proverbs 20 verse 22, say not thou, I will recompense evil, but wait on the Lord and he shall save thee, praise the Lord, Paul says, in 1 Corinthians 4 .12, being reviled, we bless, being persecuted, we suffer it, being defamed, we entreat it, we accept it, we are made as the filth of the world, and the off scoring of all things, but whatever happens, child of God, no matter what happens in life, God cries out page upon page as illustrations throughout the whole Old Testament, be still, and know that I am God, their strength was to sit still, Isaiah 30 verse 10, staggering promises, on and on and on, Exodus 14 verse 13, stand still, be still, fear not, watch, see the salvation of the Lord, the Lord shall fight for you, verse 14, and ye shall hold your peace, literally in the Hebrew, the Lord will fight for you if you do nothing, but if you start fighting, he can't, you just mess everything up, 2 Chronicles 20, ye shall not need to fight in this battle, set yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, all the promises, do you honestly think their history, no, their reign, were they meant for you and me to know what to do, when we turn and open the pages of this book to hear what God would say, he'll make sure in his sovereignty you're reading right there, and you become conscious that even where you're reading is not a mistake, the sovereign God, knew you'd be facing this right now, and he's got you reading, he's so sovereign, it's beyond belief, and be careful of the words of sovereignty, I'd like to preach on sovereignty one day, but the miracle never let me back then, so I'm waiting until I'm really old, my interpretation of sovereignty is very different from you sir, no wonder they shut the doors to the whole of America to Spurgeon when he changed his mind, to what I believe in, take heed, be quiet, do you know what it says in the margin, be careful, to be quiet, to do nothing, promises upon promises, oh sword of the Lord, he calls Israel, how long will it be ere thou be quiet, put thyself up back into thy scar, but rest and be still, stop trying to defend yourself child, get back in the seat sword my people, leave the fighting to me or wounds will come that I never intend that coming on you, conditions, in every circumstance of every giant the devil will place in your circumstance in life to get your eyes of God to hurt you, to create fear, to stagger your faith, now the fifth stone, the final stone, our land, your land, my land, and I have as much groaning for America as I have for my own country of South Africa, I don't know why, I'd die for America, and God knows it, I'm probably going to, our land and your land have turned their backs on God and are being destroyed by the avalanche of depravity and moral decadence they're allowing or it wouldn't have happened, no matter how much they're mourning they're allowing, but God can visit the land in revival until the moments before he comes and takes us home, if we really believe the promises in this book from beginning to end of what God wants to do through his church, but listen to the conditions attached to these promises, we looked last night if my people called by my name shall humble themselves and pray and confess their sins, turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear their prayers, forgive their sins and will heal their land, oh it's time to seek the Lord, breaking up the fallow ground, all the hard ground that you've allowed to settle just break it up, it's time to seek the Lord till he come and reign righteous, if you don't know it's time to seek the Lord, Christians, if you don't know it's time to seek the Lord, not the unsaved you, so that he can heal the land through you, but there's a condition to heal the land, their land, my land, and he's waiting for his people.
