In this sermon, the speaker discusses their experience of watching a movie about the United Nations and reflecting on the horrors of the world. They then share a childhood dream they had in a church where they witnessed an agnostic man seeing an angel. The speaker expresses their frustration with their Christian church and their encounter with demons. They ultimately realize that they need to change their attitude and not give the devil a foothold. The sermon concludes with a reference to the Bible and the importance of staying close to God.

Father, in this day and age, give us a new vision on the victorious life in this very dark time. Thank you, Lord, that you will make us more than conquerors. Amen. I have here a very queer glove. That glove cannot do anything. It cannot write, it cannot cut bread, it cannot do anything. But now it can even play piano. Don't tell him, for I am not a pianist. I know that is not a glove that can play piano, that is the hand in the glove. And we cannot do anything. Without Jesus we can do nothing. But with Him we can do everything. Now you see that when my hand is only in the midst of this glove, the glove cannot do anything. And I believe that is why the Bible says, one of the best, the most sweetest commandments of the Bible, Be filled with the Spirit. And don't forget that the Bible has no suggestions, but commandments. I will show you this before I will speak about our power over demons. And first I will read for you Ephesians 6.10-20. From the translation of Philips. Ephesians 6.20 And in conclusion, be strong, not in yourselves but in the Lord. In the power of His boundless resource, put on God's complete armor so that you can successfully resist all the devil's methods of attack. For our fight is not against any physical enemy, it is against organizations and powers that are spiritual. I read somewhere this term is unparalleled in demon populations of this planet. We are up against the unseen power that controls this dark world and spiritual agents from the very headquarters of evil. Therefore you must wear the whole armor of God, that you may be able to resist evil in its day of power, and that even when you have fought to a standstill, you may still stand your ground. Take your stand and with truth at your belt. Who is our truth? Peace. Righteousness, your breastplate. Peace is our righteousness. The gospel of peace, firmly on your feet. Jesus is our peace. Salvation is our helmet. Jesus is our salvation. He in us, we in Him. And in your hand the sword of the Spirit, the Word of God. Above all, be sure you take faith as your shield, for it can quench every burden missing the enemy's world. Pray at all times with every kind of spiritual prayer, keeping alert and persistent as you pray for all Christ's men and women. And pray for me too that I may be able to speak freely here to make known the secret of that gospel for which I am so to speak an ambassador in Cain. Pray that I may speak out about it and speak my plain and obvious duty. We have a tremendous task in this world. And it is good that we realize that we are standing in the midst of a terrific battle. Some time ago I had a talk for men in Germany. We had a good hour. We listened together to what the Holy Spirit had to tell us. Now I knew that half of these men were Baptist and half were Lutheran. After I was through, we had some conversation, and one of them asked me, Tell me, what do you think about the right way of baptism? I thought, I don't know where that question comes from. I fear that it comes from the corner of the enemy. You know, I knew that when I would say one thing, that half of the people should throw away my whole talk, because I did not agree about their doctrine of baptism. Should I say the other thing, then the other half was against me. So I prayed for wisdom. And I am so glad for a check written on my name and signed by Jesus Christ, in James 1, 5. One of the checks that I have always to catch again. If in the process any of you does not know how to meet any particular problem, he has only to ask God, who gives generously to all men without making them feel foolish or guilty. And he may be quite sure that the necessary wisdom will be given him. Isn't that good? Why? But he must ask in sincere faith without secret doubts as to whether he really wants God's help or not. I never know who has the sense of humor. Is it Philips or James or the Holy Spirit? I think all three. I'm sure all three have it. The man who trusts God but with inward reservation is like a wave of distance carried forward by the wind one moment and driven back to the next. I said, Father, you must say this. Are you listening to me now? I know that God likes it when we pray with boldness and say, finally you have said it. God has meant this business with his promises and he likes it when we mean business with his promises. The Lord gives me wisdom. I said, will you open your Bible at Mark 6, Mark 16, where the Lord, verse 15, where the Lord Jesus said, you must go out to the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature. He who believes it and is baptized will be saved, but he who disbelieves it will be condemned. These signs will follow those who do believe. They will drive out evil spirits in my name. They will speak with new tongues. They will pick up snakes and if they drink anything poisonous it will do them no harm. They will lay their hands upon the sick and they will recover. After these words to them the Lord Jesus was taken up into heaven and was enthroned at the right hand of God. They went out and preached everywhere. The Lord worked with them confirming their message by the signs that followed. Now three things here what the Lord tells us. Go and bring the gospel over the world. Second, lay hands on the sick, drive out demons. And, oh yes, and the first is go to bring the gospel. Then baptize and then there are power over demons and sicknesses. May I ask you how far are you with the first of the three? Did you do your utmost to bring the gospel over the world with your prayer, your curse, your testimony? Are you not happy with that? What about the third thing? Did you cast out demons? Did you lay your hands on the sick? Did you all do these three things? Are you not happy with that? Or is there still something left? Now will you first do one and three. And do everything you can to bring the gospel over the world and then to lay hands on the sick and then cast out demons. And if you are through with this then come to me and I will tell you what I think about number two. And that I can only tell you one thing about baptism and that is that Jesus has not given us this great privilege and blessing to quarrel about but to enjoy it. Now they smiled and the both hearts were still with me. You know in this time it is very important that we understand that there is a terrific fight against the very representatives of the headquarters of people. And you and I are standing in the front line and you and I are the only people in the world who can cast out demons in the name of Jesus. Do you realize that? Communists can't do that. Beelzebub is not willing to do it. So you and I must do it. I have written a little booklet, Defeated Enemies, where I tell about what I have experienced of our power of demons. It is not demonology, it is not theory, it is just what I experienced when I went over the world and I had to speak and to preach and to lay hands on sick and to bring the gospel and go over the world as a tramp for the Lord. And I didn't realize at all that we have the task of casting out demons. Oh yes, I have experienced it when I was in a concentration camp where we were together in a terrible place where people had had a training in cruelties, where the demon of hatred was in the hearts of many people. And Betsy and I were there together with 700 prisoners in a very small room. And these poor prisoners were often so nervous and so afraid. We had to sleep on very small cots with two or three. And sometimes it was as if there came a wave of hatred and darkness over that room. And the people started to fight and it was a very great danger in such a small place. And I will never forget how my sister behaved. When she heard that they were fighting together and one said, I kick you out of the bed and I will not have you any longer lay so against me. And then Betsy said, let's pray. And Betsy started to pray. And when she was praying it was as if a storm laid down and was all quiet and then she stopped. We knew that there were demons around us. And we had never thought about the casting out demons, but we read in the little forbidden booklet that we had, the Bible. We read that we may and must cast out demons and then that there were demons who do not go without fasting. And Betsy said, what about when we just give our fasting that the enemy gives to us. That we give that back to the Lord and say, Lord, it is not our will, but we fast. But when you use it Lord. I am so glad that God never takes a theological examination from you before he helps you. He just understood and he did it. And we got power over demons. And then after that period of my life that I was a prisoner there and I had to go over the world. And in my book, Amazing Love, you can read how for the first time I came face to face with demons. I have spoken about we are more than conquerors through Jesus Christ. And God's promises are the greatest reality. And our problems are the material for God to build his miracles. And if we need a great miracle we must have God out in possibilities. It was a very nice sermon. And the next day there came a woman to me with her daughter who was demon possessed. And she said, did you believe what you said yesterday? I said, oh yes, I believed every word. He said, oh here is my daughter and she is possessed by a demon of fear. The moment that we heard a noise, even when someone opened the tap in the house, then that girl sprung down of fear and hit her face on her mother's lap. She was a girl 15 years old. He said, can you cast out that demon? I said, no, that's not my work. Oh yes, she said, I thought it was very beautiful what you said in your talk but you don't believe it yourself. I said, I believe it. And then I said, oh Lord, I believe it, I believe it, but what must I do? Lord, I must not cast out demons, that's not my work. Oh, is it your will? And then the Lord said, yes. And I said to the mother, do you believe? She said, yes, I believe the Bible and I believe Mark 16. And then I spoke to that demon in that poor girl. I asked that girl, do you love the Lord Jesus? She said, yes, but he must make me free. I said, yes, he will make you free. And I said to the demon, in the name of Jesus, leave that girl. So the mother and the girl left and that girl was just as demon possessed as before. And I was disappointed and frustrated. I was in the house of a minister. So I went to a study, I said, Pastor, I have experienced this, I am so sorry. I believe in the Bible, I believe that the promises of the Lord are good. I believe in the greatest reality, but I think my faith was not strong enough. Will you do it? This is the address of the girl. He said, what do you mean? I said, you must cast out this demon. He said, I don't think about it. I never did that before. I said, Pastor, who must do it then? I said, Pastor, open your Bible and read Mark 16. I said, read it loud. And he read. And he read, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every preacher. He that believes and is baptized shall be saved. But he that believes not shall be damned. And his sons shall follow them that believe. In my name shall they cast out this devil. And he said, oh Lord, I have never known that. Forgive me. Forgive me, Lord. This girl is not the only one in my church, in my congregation. There are more, Lord. I have never seen that I have a duty here. And there was joy in my heart. I thought, now I know why I had to have that defeat. I had to go to that minister. I understood a little bit of God's side of the embroidery. The next day, the woman came with her daughter. And she said, the moment that we passed the threshold of our house, the demon was gone from my daughter. And she was absolutely free. Why did God wait with liberating that girl? Because I had to go to that minister to have that talk. That was an encouraging beginning. And then I tried to study the Bible in this. I read in 1 John 5, 18, the true child of God is in charge of God's own son. And the evil one must keep his distance. He stands on the victorious side, after all. Napoleon said to his soldiers, gentlemen, when you follow me, and when you are my soldiers, I must tell you that often when you are hungry, there will be no food. When it is bad weather, you will not have shelter. What is waiting you is blood and sweat. But I can promise you one thing. When you follow Napoleon, you fight for a general who never lost a battle. But he lost the last battle. But when we are in the army of king's pieces, the king of kings, we fight for a king who never lost a battle and who will never lose a battle. And every knee will bow for him. And at our side is a mighty high priest and legions of angels. And we have a book almost bursting by good news. And we stand in the power of the blood of Jesus. For this book tells us that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb, the word of our testimony. And we have the authority of the name of Jesus. And like a traffic officer has the authority of the law behind him, and if you don't obey him, you get a ticket, you and I have the authority of Jesus' name. And if the devil does not obey you, then you give him a ticket. He is a defeated enemy. Jesus came to destroy the works of the devil. Yet we stand as a victorious side. I know that part of Mark, there is a question mark behind that last part of Mark 16. In Germany there was a girl who was rather ill, and a brother came to her and said, Do you believe in the Bible? She said, I believe the Bible from cover to cover. Then he read Mark 16 that Jesus says, In my name thou shalt lay hands on the sick and they will recover. Do you believe that? Oh yes, she said. I never heard that before, but I didn't know that that was in the Bible, but I believe it because it is in the Bible. And he laid hands on her and she was healed. And she was so happy, she ran to her pastor. She said, Pastor, did you know that that was in the Bible? And brother so and so has done it. But you can read in Mark 16 that Jesus said, In my name you will lay hands on the sick and they will recover. And the pastor said, My dear lady, I am so sorry that I must tell you that Mark 16 is added to the Bible long, long after the original was written. She was very disappointed. But suddenly she said, Oh my, what a book is the Bible that even an acid promise has so much power that I am healed. My friends, when we act on the Word of God, that happen miracles in us and God watches over His Word. And I wrote once in my little paper, this harvest thing, that someone said, was asked, Do you believe that Jonah was in the stomach of the whale? And I said, Yes, I believe that. And if the Bible has told that the whale had been in the stomach of Jonah, I should also have believed it if it was in the Bible. Yes, it is good to act on the Word of God, but it is also very necessary that we obey the Word of God. Cast out demons in my name, says Jesus. I am so glad that in the armor of God is also prayer. I believe it is in my book, Not Good If Detached, that I tell that I was in a group of a small conference in Germany of what you call here in the Farnsworthy Christian Fellowship. Ten students, Christians, had brought ten non-Christians. And I had to speak Saturday evening and three times on Sunday. On Saturday after I had spoken, every student took one of the non-Christians and made a walk and talked with them and they said, Corrie, not one of them have accepted your message. But we will pray. We will pray this night and we will pray tomorrow and we will stand behind you with our prayers. How God did miracles that Sunday. When people prayed and the devil had not much power to come in between. And in the evening, eight out of ten had made a reception for the Lord Jesus. They did angels in heaven, made angels in heaven rejoice. I went to my bedroom very happy and thankful and exulted. Germans are very thoroughly and talk much and between the three meetings I had many, many talks. But I was so happy with what the Lord had done. But when I came in my room, Trudy followed me. And Trudy said, oh, Corrie, I must thank you what you have done for my Otto. He was so dark. He was a medical student and her fiancé Otto was also a medical student. He said, oh, he was so dark and unhappy. And now he has accepted the Lord Jesus and he is so, he is so glad and so full of joy. I said, now let us just praise and thank the Lord. But what about you, Trudy? He said, I don't come to speak about myself, I don't speak about Otto. He said, okay, and I talked about Otto. But suddenly, in the midst of our talk, I turned to her, or rather to demons in her, and I said, in the name of Jesus, I commend you demons, go out of this girl. She is not bought by your blood, but by the blood of Jesus Christ, who has paid everything for her at the cross of Golgotha. I commend you to leave her and I forbid you to come back or to come in anyone else. Go to the place where Jesus tells you to go. I have never seen such a change on the face of a human being. From the darkness she came into light and she shouted, I am free, I am free! Is there hope for me? I didn't know it. And then she told me that she had intended to commit suicide the next day. And I can tell you, I stood trembling on my feet. I did not know anything of her and I even had not discerned that she was demon possessed. And I, after she had left, I thought, I must have a prayer, I must talk it over with someone. I went downstairs and in the hall where we had our meetings, I saw all these ten students on their knees. And I said, I come to tell you that Trudy is liberated. They said, we knew. I said, what did you know? They said, we knew that she was demon possessed and when she went to your room, we went in prayer. And we prayed, God, use courage and womb to liberate that girl. And after some time, suddenly our prayer went over in praise and thanks and we knew that she was free. Now do you see what prayer means? I did not know anything about that girl, but there were these students who were praying. And I was very happy about this experience. Please stop your machine and turn the tape over. The remainder of Corrie Ten Boone's message will be heard on side two. Thank you. I have found over the whole world a lack of knowledge among theologians, among bible students, in the seminaries, in the bible schools. The people do not teach to cast out demons. And I must say here that Pentecostal church is here much more advanced than the other churches. It was so. Now there seems to be a difference also in the other churches. But my friends, don't forget that you have to cast out demons in this time. And you can do it. Not because of your faith. For that is very small, perhaps not bigger than a coconut, even perhaps not bigger than a mustard seed. But that doesn't matter. It can remove boundaries. And you have the authority of the name of Jesus. And you have the legal duty of the name of Jesus and you stand in the power of his blood. Perhaps you will say that, listen, I can understand when you go over the mission field that you find many people who are demons possessed, which you are seeing in America. Have you never had someone in your counseling room who said, oh, I wanted so much to accept the Lord Jesus. But I cannot. I'm not able. So the moment that I will ask Lord Jesus to come into my heart, it is as if there comes something between him and me. Many people say that I always ask. I always ask wisdom. When I counsel and even when I preach, I have always the horizontal and the vertical connecting in the same moment. And I can tell my dear Lord quite different sermons than I tell people in front of me. Then I ask Lord, what is to know? What is there in the life of this person? This moment to be saved where she cannot. And then the Lord tells me which question I ask him. Then I say, when did you go through spiritualism? Or I ask, when did you go to a fortune teller? And I never ask when they have been to a fortune teller if they have gone to a spiritualist meeting. The answer is almost always the same, oh yes, for them and them. But I did it just for fun. And then I tell them about East Germany. In East Germany the border between West and East is sometimes in the midst of a wood. Now when you are walking in that forest, in that wood, and you should not be alert, but it is possible to come very easily into the eastern part of that wood, of Germany. And especially when you have a game, and when you are playing and suddenly you are at the wrong side of the border, and then the police comes and says, just come with me to the police station. Doesn't it help you when you say, oh excuse me, but we were just playing? No, when you are on the territory of the enemy you are in the power. And when you go for fun to a fortune teller, or you are asked to read the lines to your hands or this nonsense, and that is very often here in America, then I can tell you, you are in the territory of the enemy. You are in great danger. Now, the people don't always believe that. So the best that we make the Bible speak, and then I always immediately ask them to open their Bible and to read Deuteronomy 18, 10-13. There shall not be found among you anyone that makes a piston, or a dog to pass through the fire, or that uses divination, or an observer of signs, or an enchanter, or a witch, or a charmer, or a consultant with familiar spirits, or a witcher, or a necromancer, for all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord. And because of this abomination the Lord thy God has driven them out from before thee, thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God. Why is it an abomination in the eyes of God? Because instead of asking God for help you have asked the enemy for help. Therefore you must be perfect with the Lord thy God. Now if people really are serious they are very soon persuaded that they have done an abomination. And that's alright. When they are so far then I open the Bible and give them words, for instance 1 John 1, 7 and 9 And then when we confess our sins God gives faithful and just to forgive us and the blood of Jesus cleanses us from all the sins we confess. It has never cleansed men's sins. And then they are free. If they do it and then they can accept the Lord. And oh how we must warn these decent sinners here in America that they mustn't go to a fortune teller. And I found also, you will see that in my little booklet, that many people are in great danger because they do not know about these things. There was a great evangelist in Germany, a man of God. Mightily used for thousands and thousands sinners who were saved and thousands and ten thousands Christians who came by his preaching into the victorious life. I can tell you his name if you look at him. And he came once to me and he said, oh Corrie I've had such a terrible experience. There came a lady to me and she said, oh make me free, make me free, I am under the power of the devil. And he said, I saw in her eyes that she was demon possessed. And I laid my hands on her and the same moment I fell on my back and I was out of consciousness. For a hundred hours. And when I came back to consciousness she was gone and she had committed suicide. I said, pastor will you show me in the bible where it's written that we must lay hands on a demon possessed. Lay hands on the sick and cast out the demons. We must be very careful with our obedience. Now here is a man full of the love of the Lord, full of unburdened control. And only by lack of knowledge this man did such a dangerous thing. It is time to wake up to reality. Now in this booklet also I tell that there is a danger. I don't know if you have ever read the book of Mrs. Stamboul's War of the Kings. When you read that book without first asking the Lord to protect you with the blood of Jesus you come in great darkness. It's a positive book but it's dangerous. And it's one sided. He brings everything under the category of demon possession. And I found missionaries in the mission field who did the same. And they always talked about demons. And about demon possession. Not only in the mission field. So often when a mother-in-law is difficult then they say, My mother-in-law is demon possessed. Be careful. She speaks about saying to someone, raka, guilty. I don't know anything. I've never studied demonology. But in this little booklet I try to make the difference between demon obsession and demon possession. Demon possession you can see. But demon obsession you cannot always see. There is a gradual difference. The answer is the same. Cast out the demons in the name of peace. And you'll come by the blood of the Lamb. But be careful that you do not make a servicemen for the enemies by always talking about demons. I'll never forget when Dr. Charlie Johnson came to Holland to start the Youth for Christ movement there. I've never seen such a mean article in the newspaper when they wrote about Mary Jones. Terrible thing. So mean, so dirty. And when he came there were no walls big enough to contain the mass of people. And I can tell you when I should come back here to America and I should like to have very big meetings, I should ask some of you if we should try to write against me. And you cannot be too mean. These people have made the best servicemen for Charlie Johnson. And now the Youth for Christ movement is in the hands of young people who were saved in the first meetings of Charlie Johnson. And that is a mighty blessing in Holland. To save many youths, much youths and also riper youths. Like everywhere in the world. The Youth for Christ always not only reaches the youths but also the riper youths. Still 18 ago. But don't talk too much about demons. And don't, it is in crooked language. That man with a mighty sense of humor said there are two equal and opposite errors into which our race can fall about the devil. One is to disbelieve in their existence. And that very much many people do not believe that demons exist. And demons and pastors. People who stand in the midst of a whole army of demons. And they do not believe. You see that they live with what a terrible, a terrible doubt. One is to disbelieve in their existence. The other is to believe and to feel an unhealthy interest in them. And I can tell you, what I tell you today, I cannot, this talk I cannot give everywhere. I can tell you when I have given this talk. Then people come to me and just tell the most thrilling stories. That is, that is an unhealthy curiosity. And they like to tell about demons. And then they go in details and tell what has happened with that woman, what they have seen about her. They themselves are equally pleased by both errors. And they hail a materialist or a magician. A magician with the same delight. Demons exist. And demons are in the world. And I believe that there are more now than every time before. And you have a tremendous power. And you have nothing to fear. But be sure that you do not just let down a foothold. What do I mean? I was in South Africa. And I got a telephone from a girl, a lady who said, Can't you come here? He said, Girl, demons possess us, we don't know what to do. And my first reaction, you know, was to say no. When you ask me to go to a stick and lay hands on the stick, then I say, but great joy, oh, I do it. And it gives me a great joy to lay hands on the stick. But when you ask me, come and cast out the demons, then I say, I can't do this. What is it? Am I afraid to do this? The fear for demons comes from the demons themselves. And we have nothing to fear for demons. We can be victorious, right? Three kings of angels and a mighty high priest is at our side. Is it because it is so terrible to see the demonstration of the power of the enemy in the life of a human being? Perhaps it is that. I don't know what you have experienced, but after I have been used to cast out demons, I am physically so tired. And I am not that when I lay hands on the stick. I don't know what it is, but I don't like it. And if I can avoid it, I do it. But I know that if I do not do it, and if you do not do it, who in the world must cast out demons? Tell me. There is no other in the whole world who can do it but the Christian. The spiritual Christian. And you can't do it and I can't do it, we are just nobody. Love. You see how very important it is to be filled with the Holy Spirit in these times. Now I said, yes, I cut. And I took the bone after that and I said to my friend, say, listen, will you please come with your car and bring me to that address, there is a woman, demon possessed. And they have asked me if I would come to cast out the demons. And my friend said, Corrie, you know that I am always available for you with my car. But today I cannot do it, it is impossible. The whole day I must bake pies and cakes for the church meeting tomorrow. I laid down the receiver of that telephone and there were three ministers in that room where the telephone was and I turned to the ministers and I said, there are too many pies and too many demons in your church. What did I mean? And also, it was in South Africa and all these British countries, these ladies' meetings are just demonstrations of how they can cook, bake pies and cakes. This is almost a danger. After I have been some weeks there, there is far too much courage. And boom, I must go on a diet. But I am not against it, I like them. But there is a sign that we must not bake pies for cast out demons. And if all the ladies use the time that they use in their cooking just to go to that neighbor that has an eternity to lose of the business and bring the gossip, then I think it should be good. So there is a sign perhaps for baking pies. And I know in America it doesn't take much time, so you have all in one pan. There are too many demons in our church. What do we do with the demons of that church? Now be honest, you send them to a psychiatrist and he can give shocks and demons are not at all shocked. Here is the thing, it is time to wake up to reality. One of the ladies said, I will bring you to that lady. And I was there and there was absolute defeat. I couldn't do anything. And at last the demons attacked me. And the demons said, you are possessed by the idiotic idea that Jesus is sick. And I had to leave absolute defeat. And I went on my knees and I said, Lord, what has happened? And the Lord showed me that there was in my being a foothold for the devil. Don't go to bed angry, don't give the devil that kind of foothold. That is somewhere in the translation of the Philistines. You know when there is a foothold for the devil, you are in a strategic, very deep moment. What was the foothold? My attitude was holier than thou. I have told this in a very witty and straight way what I thought about it in the center. You see? Holier than thou is a smoke in God's nose. I died there with a terrible thing. It was pride, spiritual pride. Don't fight with demons when there is pride in your heart. Afternoon, I hope to speak about sin. We are all very deeply sinners, but sin. Don't give the enemy that kind of foothold. Now if you will know more about my experience, read that little book, The Feet of Enemies. And I will not stop here. But I will tell you that there are more angels in the world than demons. And often we speak far more about demons than about angels. And I am so glad for the angels. Boy, they are great friends of mine. And how they have helped me and they help me. My book, The Prisoner. And yes, you can read that I came in the prison and we all had to be searched. And we stood on a line and everyone was searched. They took away everything that we had hidden. My house kept. I had a little Bible. It was special printed for the underground workers in Holland. It was a whole old and new testament, but very small. And I had it under my dress on my back. And other things that I needed. And I saw that they did not leave anything. They took away everything that was hidden. And I was so scared that I said, oh God, but now you are angels and they surround me. And then I thought, yes, angels, but after all angels are spirits. And spirits are transparent. You can look through them and these people may not see me. I said, God, let your angels not be transparent today. You can pray very unorthodox when you are in great need. But God did it. How, I don't know. But the woman who was standing before me, it was only once, was searched. And then my sisters stood behind me and they did not see me. And I was shocked. I said, oh God, if you are such a hearer of prayer, I believe I can even extend the concentration time. But an hour later I was called again. All of us, we had to stand in the street and everyone was searched for a second time by different women. And I was not afraid. I said, Father, leave your incantation of angels for some moment around me. And he did. And so I came with my Bible. Is this a strange story? No. It's written in the Bible, angels are ministering spirits. Come to this planet for your and my help. Oh my. Sometimes we must pray for open eyes. Like that servant of Elijah. I told this story in Cape Town, in a church. And I watched a man who called himself an agnostic. And he thought, oh boy, that lady, that selfish, impossible story that you can read on Christian calendars. I wished I could run away, but I couldn't. The church was packed and he was just sitting at the other side of the door. Suddenly that man saw an angel standing behind me. Tall angel on the house with hands over my head. And then closed his eyes. Looked up, the angel was still there. About twelve minutes that man saw the angel. Why in the world did I need the help of an angel in that Christian church? I will tell you, I was sad. It was my sixth meeting. And they said, now before you speak we have a short movie of the United Nations. And you saw on the screen Germany after the war. And you saw that they had lost faith. You saw that Germans came in a country and when they thought it was German, oh they wouldn't listen to them. They had lost their good name. And the tendency was, we need United Nations to bring peace on earth. Now what they showed was not terrible. They showed the concentration camps, people coming from it. It was not terrible, but I saw a thousand times more than that movie showed. And all these horrible things I had been through came back in my memory. And when I would speak, I couldn't utter a word.
