“God’s Glory and Love”
We thank you, Jesus, for your hallowed presence this day. We thank you that you have a place in our heart that no one else can fill. We thank you for your precious blood. We thank You Jesus that you are the Lamb of God that was slain before the foundation of the world. We thank you precious Father for offering us your Son: your most prized possession.
We thank you for your mighty redemption and we thank you that you have redeemed us out of the hand of the enemy and out of the kingdom of darkness. We thank you, Father, that you’ve made the way that we might know you in a true and living way, that through Jesus, our redeemer and Lord, we can be brought back to you. Father, we thank you for every provision that you give to us, moment by moment, and we give you glory.
We thank you for this work in this place and the world; for surely it’s you that has accomplished it, not us. Father, we thank you that you didn’t give us the wise; but you gave us the willing who let you become all in all to them. Lord, with all the simplicity of the gospel you have brought us together this day to worship you and give you glory.
Jesus, we thank you for your word, your life, and your blood. We thank you that your love and the love of the Holy Spirit who is in us and we give you glory and we praise for it. In your wonderful name we pray. Amen.
I’d like to pray for Leah and all of those that are traveling back to Oregon. Pray your protection and your angels to watch over them, Lord, and we thank you for uniting that family and bringing them to you. We thank you for the family and every creative miracle that you have wrought, that’s been in my life. We give you glory, Lord Jesus. We praise you for you are the changer of lives, not us.
We thank you that we can be an instrument in your hand to see lives changed for your glory; for the salvation of souls and for the kingdom of God. We give you glory for it now, Lord, in Jesus name. Amen.

Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I [am] God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
We need to praise the Lord and give Him glory. That is also my testimony of what God has done in my life. I don’t have to defend myself I have a defender. He’s my defender. Praise God. I praise Him because I have learned to know He is God. I’ve learned to be still before Him. Also learned that He will be exalted among the heathen and all the earth. We feel like the earth is going to pieces. The wicked is getting more wicked and the Christians are getting leaner. They are set in their doctrines of men instead of doctrine of God.
God has a people that He’s kept for this hour. They are a people that are not thought too well of by their brothers or sisters. They might not be thought well of by anybody; but if God loves us it doesn’t matter if anybody else does. But I can tell you one thing I know He’s a mighty God. He longs for us to worship Him in the beauty of His holiness and to know that He is God and for us to be still and know that He’s God. Sometimes we talk and pray too much. Our prayers go just above our head, because it’s us praying, not the Lord praying through us. God is saying, “Be still and know that I am God.”
What does He want to show us by being our still and knowing that He
is God? He’s the changer of lives. We can’t tell Him how to do it!
Years ago we had a lady that called me all the time. She’d say, “Agnes pray with me.” She’d start praying but I couldn’t even agree with her prayer because it was way off. It was what she wanted not what God wanted. I couldn’t amen to it. I just listened but I didn’t agree with it. Sometimes are asking God to agree with our prayers when it’s contrary to Him. He said, “Be still and know that I am God.” It’s in the stillness that we know God. It’s in our obedience, and we share the good of the lamb. Be willing and obedient. That’s all He asks of us; to be willing and obedient and be still and know that He is God.
He doesn’t work fast enough for us. We want to get in there and tell Him how fast to work and tell Him what to do and make sure He does it the way we want Him to do. That’s the way we pray. But that’s not the way the Lord wants us to go. He said, “Be still and know that I am God.” What else did He say? “I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
Now our God is doing something very mighty in the world today. It looks as though it is all kayos and nothing good. God is moving by His Spirit all over the world. Every power, every mountain, every wall that’s presented itself against God is going to come down. Not after we get to heaven. We’re going to do some shaking on this old earth because the earth still belongs to Him. It doesn’t belong to Satan, to the rich, or the wicked. It belongs to God! Amen.
All those heathen out there: one billion in China, 980 million in India plus millions other places, those heathen, God loves them.
I asked the Lord, “Why don’t you show the world who you are? They curse you and revile you, they treat you so badly; why don’t you do something about it?” He gave me a scripture. He said in Psalm 78:61 “And delivered his strength into captivity, and his glory into the enemy’s hand.” But He’s shaking Himself now. “The Hindu says, “I’m going to close India. God isn’t going to get in there.” The Muslims said, “We got it all sewed up you’re not going there.” The Buddhist says, “Nothing’s going to get in.” All of the religions have said let’s shove God out.
He’s shaking Himself. He’s taking His strength out of captivity and His glory out of the enemy’s hand. He’s putting His love and glory in His people and every person that will deny themselves, let their flesh die, and the devil be removed from them will be filled with the love and glory of God. It’s up to us to let Him do it.
He’s looking for a people who are dedicated enough to die to themselves. A people who will let our rotten flesh stink, and let it die and be burned by God’s fire. He will then fill us with the love of God and the glory of God. That glory of God which He gave to Satan, He has taken it out and He’s placing it in His people. That glory and love is going across this old world and it’s going to shake the world and these things are going to crumble. It says right here, He put it under His feet and under our feet, as we are obedient to Him.
Let’s not play games. God loves is for us; He died to give it to us. He gives it to us and we can’t mix with our flesh: anger, jealousy, unforgiveness and hate. It has no place in the kingdom of God. Only His love and glory will remain. He’s shaking Himself and He’s taking His strength out of captivity. He taking His glory out of the enemy’s hands. He said, “Be still and know that I am God and watch me do what I will do.”
We think we’re so big and mighty at it. We aren’t a drop in the bucket. Our God is mighty! He said, “He is greatly to be praised.” He is the Lord our God. Hallelujah. We don’t have any time except to praise Him and give Him glory. As we praise Him and as the Holy Ghost falls upon us the high praises of God will come. He will change our lives if we are willing to allow Him to do it. We have to let go and let Him cleanse us, and purge us, and purify us.
Are we here to listen to what people have to say or are we here to have God change our lives? What is the purpose of our being here? The Lord showed me something so mighty: that if somebody offends us and you love them and you don’t allow anything in your heart that they say against you. The whole plan of the God is to destroy the works of the devil and the flesh. If people are nasty and bitter to us don’t receive it unto ourselves, pray for them. God will remove everything and we’ll not be affected by it.
There have been circumstances here that were permitted because people were allowing these things to pull them around. It isn’t our business what others do it’s our business how we take it; if we receive it or reject it. If we do what God wants us to do, we’ll come to the light as He is in the light we will have fellowship one with another. The blood of Jesus Christ cleans us from all sin.
If we have hate against a brother or a sister we aren’t cleansed are we. If we have hate against one another and we’re remarking against one another, then we need some cleansing, healing. We need the Lord to come in and wash it all away.
We need Jesus to teach us how to forgive, to teach us how not to hear the things that people want to say against us or through us. We don’t have to receive it. We say God bless you and pray for them. Not putting curses on them by holding it inside in bitterness, hate and resentment.
If we forgive that person God’s going to forgive them. If we don’t forgive them we’re piling witchcraft on top of them. Then their load gets very heavy. God is saying He wants us to be free from witchcraft and wrong prayers. He will help us if we will have the right attitude and we will believe Him.
God is still on the throne and He’s going to have a holy people. He’s going to have that holy people! It doesn’t matter what we think. We can be holy if we want to be holy for He’ll make us holy. But He doesn’t need us if were not holy. He doesn’t need us if we’re half in and half out. He needs us 100%. Amen. 100%.
“Be still and know that I am God.” Know that He is God and know that what He is doing is right is taking the nations right now. He’s pouring out His Spirit on the nations right now whether you believe it or not. He’s doing it!
I just had a Fax this morning telling me about a group of business men and professional people. They started gathering together since 1930 to exalt the Lord and to bring salvation to the business and professional world and to the professional world. I was saved in 1931 and at that time God put intercession in me for the world and He never took it out. I heard this report that 72 nations of the world are connected to those men. When God gave me Isaiah 58 He gave me the word: “It was never my plan for my church to beg. It was my plan for the businesses to take care of my church.”
Today He’s raising them up all over the world. I met a man in India who told me at a meeting on Friday that they closed him down. As he stood there facing the multitudes of people, the Holy Spirit spoke to his heart and told him, “I am changing my strategy over India.”
The next morning we met him at the airport and we gave him the strategy which God wants to use with His people today. God told me, “This is the man I want to use.” We went all the way around through India and came back to Bombay and he was so anxious to meet with us. He said to me, “Agnes will you let me be that man that represents your organization. We have 60,000 villages in India where we want to start bringing the gospel of the kingdom of Jesus Christ: Isaiah 58, and Ezekiel 1. To bring the revelation of Jesus Christ to the world that the world might not only know Him, but they might be kept by Him. The provision of the Lord is mighty! We don’t use it because we don’t understand that God has a plan and that plan is to use it to meet the needs of the whole world; the needs of the masses and multitudes out there in utter poverty and in total darkness. Jesus loves every one of them.
He sent me a Fax and said, “Are you ready with Isaiah 58? Are you ready to give what God has given to the nations, are they ready for you?” For 43 years on this desert plus a few years before, God burned some promises in my heart; promises to me that He was going to fulfill even to this moment. He’s sending me to the nations that they might obey Him. If nobody goes with me I’m going anyway; because He said if they don’t go I’ll send you alone.
It’s God’s work it’s His time to move. It’s when He’s moving not, when we’re going to move. God is giving us the nations now. He is pouring out His spirit upon the nations of the world. In one week we had Africa, Kenya, Nigeria, the Dominica Republic, China, India and the islands of the sea. In one week it came up like a mighty flood before us. God say, “It’s time to take the gospel of the kingdom to the nations. Who will go for me?”
We are too satisfied with our flesh and our own way and doings. He said, “Be still and know that I am God. I’m going to meet those heathen out there. I’m going to change those heathen lives out there.” He is going to do it with you or without you. I hope with me. I don’t intend to quit!
If everybody else stops I’m going on because God called me to it. I’m going to obey. I’ve brought this word to probably thousands of people. It has to be imparted. You have to receive it in order for it to be imparted. It can’t be given to you unless you receive it. If you don’t receive, you’re on your way. I’ve going His way.
That’s how I feel today! God is God and He is moving by His spirit and we can be a part of it without these awful things the enemy wants to pin on us. We can go in His love and glory and the enemy can’t touch us. No matter how bad he hates us he can’t touch us; because we’re not filled with the human. We’re filled with the divine love of God that can’t be touched by the enemy. If we’re filled with His love and glory the devil can’t touch us. He’d like to; but he can’t. He’d like to chop us down but he can’t; because it’s God that called. It’s God that chose and He wants to use every one of us.
Remember this one thing: we have to give Him our all. We have to let Him take out all of the works of our flesh so He can fill us with His love and glory. When we are filled with His love and glory nothing in this world will stop us. Nothing!
I see these business men in 72 countries, I see God moving in a mighty miraculous way. This man in India told me to start a business. He wants to use the business men of India to bring salvation to the Indian people, 980 million of them.
God is moving by His spirit. We have a challenge before us to let Him have His way in our life until we’re emptied out and filled with His love and glory. It’s up to us!
It doesn’t matter what people believe about me or what they think. I don’t serve people, I serve God! I help people if He tells me to help them and I praise Him for it; but that’s not my business. My business is to love Him with all my heart, soul and all that is within me. With my mind and my whole being that His love and glory might reach the nations; that they will learn to know Him and love Him. God has it for us.
Psalm 47:1 “O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 “For the LORD most high [is] terrible; [he is] a great King over all the earth.
3 “He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 “He shall choose our inheritance for us. The excellency of Jacob whom He loved. Selah.
5 “God is gone up with a shout, the LORD with the sound of a trumpet.
6 “Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.”
Surely the Lord our God hath filled us with His love and glory and the enemy can’t touch us. We give you glory, Jesus, it’s your work not ours. We give you glory and we exalt you, that the heathen and the wicked shall come under our feet. We give you glory, Jesus, for as we walk in your love and glory the enemy will be defeated and the work of the kingdom shall go forth. We give you glory precious Lord. Glory to God!
