It was very sweet to see the humility that Bro. Roberts had and to see Bro. Benny Hinn honoring him above himself and be in his place.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color:#000000;\"> Going through the first tunnel, the video kept playing on my phone: the signal stops when I have played things in my phone in the past in the tunnel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Towards the end of the video going through the 2nd tunnel , Benny Hinn ask Bro Roberts to stretch forth his hand and pray and Bro. Roberts said he felt the anointing in his right arm as he prayed and stretched it forth as in times past during his healing crusades.\u00a0 I prayed, &#8220;Lord, please don&#8217;t let the video signal go out and I stretched my fingers to touch his on my phone screen. When I did, Judy put her hand on my hand.\u00a0 I felt the power of God go down my fingers and arm and ran to my head and then down to my feet; it was overwhelming for me and I could not stop crying from the love of God that I felt.\u00a0 \u00a0 It was at the level when I felt that kind of love at your doorway in 2001 when Darren played,<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><a style=\"color:#000000;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.isaiah58.com\/music\/DarrenPrater\/Darren%20Prater%20-%20Rest%20Oh%20My%20Child.mp3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"> &#8220;Rest Oh My Child&#8221;<\/span><\/a> .<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">As I was crying I kept telling Judy, &#8220;I felt that, I believe that&#8221;.\u00a0 When I looked at Judy, she was crying too.\u00a0 She handed me a napkin to wipe my face but I couldn&#8217;t stop sobbing.\u00a0 The signal never failed in the 2nd tunnel either as Bro Roberts stopped prying.\u00a0 The video stopped about the time we came out of the tunnel: the sun was brilliant and bright and everything looked so green and beautiful.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I just wanted to share and thank Jesus for those feelings that Judy and I shared together today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Billy<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">============<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Dear Bro. John:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I have heard you say many times\u00a0that\u00a0Brother Roberts was a &#8220;Prince in the Kingdom of God&#8221;.\u00a0 I so felt that tonight\u00a0as I watched him telling of the miracles and the experiences that he had with Jesus.\u00a0 Such humility as he told Jesus he didn&#8217;t know what to do to take his healing ministry to his generation; how Jesus asked him if he had received the holy Spirit, and he replied yes.\u00a0 And then Jesus asked him if he knew what he had, and he told Jesus so humbly\u00a0he was sure he didn&#8217;t know, but if he could just walk by his side as the disciples did . . .\u00a0and Jesus told him that the holy Spirit\u00a0<em>was<\/em>\u00a0His Presence.\u00a0 What a beautiful story!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">As Brother Roberts continued to tell of his life and the things of God, tears began to build in my eyes.\u00a0 I felt my heart just being drawn into his testimonies and the sincerity in his words.\u00a0 Especially when he began to talk about the healing tent meetings.\u00a0 When he told the story of Willie Phelps, the boy with the polio, I just wept.\u00a0 He said that sometimes all the healings don&#8217;t happen right then and there.\u00a0 But that little boy came back a year later to one of Bro. Roberts&#8217; tent meetings &#8211; and was walking without crutches!!\u00a0 Whew!\u00a0 Jesus is REAL!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">It reminded me of the night I was brought to a tent meeting in New Bern as a small child, and Brother Creech prayed for my eye to be healed from the large cyst that had grown on it.\u00a0 The doctors said only surgery would take care of it, and it would leave me scarred for life.\u00a0 Brother Creech pinned an anointed cloth on my little dress and laid hands on me.\u00a0 He sent me home to thank Jesus every night for healing my eye.\u00a0 My mother and I did just that.\u00a0 And just a few days later, we found\u00a0the cyst\u00a0had rolled out and was lying in the bed covers!\u00a0 No scar to this day!!\u00a0 Praise Jesus!!\u00a0 Jesus knew me and cared for me even before I knew him!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Thank you for sending this video.\u00a0 It blessed me so much.\u00a0 We have no reason at all to hang our heads about anything.\u00a0 As Jesus asked Brother Roberts when he told Jesus he had the holy Spirit:\u00a0<em>&#8220;Do you know what you have?&#8221;<\/em>\u00a0 My, my!\u00a0 It made me want to &#8220;have a little talk with Jesus&#8221; just to hear his sweet Voice!\u00a0 And to\u00a0<em>believe <\/em>that what we have in the holy Ghost can overcome anything!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">All we have to do is share Jesus with one another.\u00a0 The words of Jesus always have life in them!\u00a0 I could feel the anointing in Brother\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Roberts&#8217; testimony as if he had just heard them from Jesus!\u00a0 So very sweet and sincere.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Thank you for everything you do to encourage us in the Lord.\u00a0 The meeting last night and Brother Roberts&#8217; video\u00a0stirred sweet feelings that I love to feel!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><em>Sandy<\/em>\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">============<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I&#8217;ve loved watching Oral Roberts clips on YouTube the past couple of days too.\u00a0I&#8217;ve watched several of whatever I can find.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I love what I feel from him. I love to imagine what it would be like back then in the 50&#8217;s and 60s with him around, preaching an healing, an also being\u00a0on TV.\u00a0I imagine that time would have been such\u00a0a\u00a0blessed time. It would not be allowed at all now.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">What amazes me is that despite that &#8211;\u00a0and that he is a prince\u00a0in God&#8217;s kingdom, he sill didn&#8217;t know the exact truth.\u00a0It makes me glad that Jesus is that good, that he didn&#8217;t require Brother Roberts to know the exact\u00a0truth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">I hope you are having a good day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Jenny<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">============<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"><em>I know, Jenny.\u00a0 After I grew up and Jesus taught me some of his sweet truth, I wondered why such a very great man of God as Oral Roberts would call his work a &#8220;crusade&#8221;.\u00a0 The Crusades of the Popes were such wicked enterprises! But, Brother Roberts was not my servant; he was God&#8217;s, so I just leave it alone.\u00a0 I love that man still.\u00a0 He is still alive, and I want to meet him someday.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#0000ff;\"><em>Pastor John<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Click the link below to view the interview between Benny Hinn and Oral Roberts.) https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=yukiObx10Do ============ Hi Pastor John: On our way home from KY today, I rigged my phone up over the truck speakers where Judy could watch and I could listen to the video you spoke about last night.
