November 2021
It was some twenty or twenty-five years ago at the morning prayer meeting, and there were probably only about ten of us there that day.
As I went to prayer, I sensed a mighty moving of the Holy Spirit in my heart. I began to pray for Family Worship Center. But the Lord began to impress upon me the need of the church, as a whole. He said to me, “I will take care of Family Worship Center, but My church, as a whole, is in pitiful condition.”
He then said, “The whole head is sick, and the body is full of sores, which no medicine can mollify.” This was taken directly from (Isaiah 1:5-6).
Then He said to me, “But I’m going to start a move at Family Worship Center that is going to girdle the globe.”
I knew the Lord had spoken to me, of that there was no doubt; however, I did not see how that this could be done regarding Family Worship Center. But that morning, as I bowed my heart before the Lord, I knew that He had spoken to me, and I knew it was real. In other words, what He said He was going to do, that He would do.
I Am Now Seeing That Beginning To Come To Pass
What the Lord is doing now is really just a touch of what He is going to do, I believe, in the near future. In fact, I believe we’re going to see a harvest of souls as we’ve never seen before. I feel that in my spirit; I see it in my spirit. And please understand, when I say the Lord spoke to me, to be sure that is exactly what He did.
We were on television in those days one hour a week. Now we are on twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, as most all of you know. I can see now how the Lord can do what He said He was going to do. And to be sure, I am anticipating the greatest move of God that I have ever known. I believe it is just ahead; we are on the very verge of this great move of God.
As many of you know, at times, when the Spirit of God moves in the programming over television, I will stop and pray the sinner’s prayer with whoever is out there. Thank God for the letters that we are receiving telling us that they prayed with us; in other words, they accepted Christ. I believe what few we are now receiving is just the beginning of what is going to take place. I believe it’s going to be a harvest unparalleled.
America is in terrible shape, spiritually, because the church is in terrible condition, spiritually. The Bible still says: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” (II Chron. 7:14). That word still holds true.
The Cross
I believe the Lord is presently trying to bring the church back to the cross. I believe He has raised up this ministry (Jimmy Swaggart Ministries) for this very purpose—that we come back to the cross. This is the solution—and the only solution—and I continue to speak of the cross of Christ.
I believe that the cross of Christ is the single most important aspect of the work of God. This means that the object of our faith must be the cross of Christ. Nothing else will do. It must be the cross.
