The Kingdom of God - Part 2

He also spoke of a kingdom of light and power where God and angels live and invited me to walk in that kingdom. Oh, if I could run, I'd do it now. I said he invited me to walk in that kingdom.

He told me about a world where God was real, where angels walked, where miracles happened, where it's commonplace with God. I'm talking about the kingdom of God. Oh, yes, hallelujah, hallelujah, a kingdom in which the church was to move and live.

That's what he said. You're to demonstrate on this planet what heaven's all about. The Bible said the word of God is forever settled in heaven, and then Jesus come along and said, whatever's settled up there, I want it to happen down here.

Your prayer must be thy kingdom come, thy will be done on this earth, not in the millennium, but right now in us that know this great God. This gospel never changes because the God that brought it never changes. And the people that walk in God's spirit are the same as the first century people that walked in the spirit.

Hallelujah to God. Amen. This was powerfully made real to me in a camp meeting about 72 miles from here.

They called me in 1958, they come in in 56, begin this church. And that, they, similar to God in East Texas, had a camp meeting out in the field, built a little old brush arbor kind of a place, only it had a metal roof instead of brush. Invite, and I preached for seven years at camp meeting.

So it come from 150 to 1,000 people out there in those woods. You'd go up there, folks, and the men would go out along the fence row. You could hear them for a mile as they prayed.

Women stayed on the tabernacle for an hour before it started. Oh, what times, what times. One night I was preaching.

The old PA system wasn't nothing like this, but I pulled, there was 1,000 people scattered out there, pulled the microphone out, didn't even know it was cut loose. I was so caught up in God, I'd walked out dragging that dead microphone with me, proclaiming Christ, preaching. All of a sudden, they went mad.

You hear me? I mean, people jumped up, began to fall over each other. Some fell out in the sawdust. Over 100 people were baptized in the Holy Ghost.

I said over 100 people falling out. Amen. When I saw what has happened, I retreated back to the platform.

One man come a running. I went over, laid hands on him, not to bless him, but to keep him off the platform. Amen.

I got over, I stopped him. Minute I laid my hands on him, he just began to pour out of him the language of heaven. Oh, he spoke in the most beautiful language.

And while I'm there with him, Brother Thomas come up by me, a pastor. He said, what's going on? I said, listen to him. He's talking in tongues.

He said he can't. He's my nephew, born deaf and dumb 35 years ago. He can't even say mama.

I said, well, he's saying something now. And for 20 minutes, he spoke in the language of God. But when the Holy Ghost lifted, he's still a deaf mute.

Life is deeper than conscience. There's somebody in me. Hallelujah.

Hallelujah. There's somebody. I said, there's somebody in me.

Oh, listen to me. I believe I've lost contact. Oh, God turned the wrong way.

I got over. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on.

Come on.
