Our Guest Bill Hamon
BILL: Now there’s a whole new ministry or opportunity opening up for you and God says you’ve wondered what’s going on Lord? Is this change? I’ve been here I’ve been there but now the Lord says I give you that experience before you even got saved I took you into some things and praise you and now the Lord says I formed you into the man I want with the ministry I want and I’m going to open a door that no man can shut and you’re going to move into it, amen? God bless you, amen.
Audience: [Applause]
BILL: By the way, the word of the Lord for this year for me – I started getting the word of the Lord in 1988, I was the first one that ever started doing that, now everybody does it. All the prophets do. But I remember my words, I always try to make them rhyme, it goes update, relate and activate! All you married folks have to do that. How many know the man or woman you married is not the same person you married? Come on. You’re not the same. I know what that look means! No I don’t mean that anymore! I know what that tone is! But you have to update. My wife and I had to update for 59 years about every 5 years you know? Update then relate then activate. Kiss and make up and go on. Hallelujah. My wife and I made an agreement when we got married that we’d never go to sleep with an unsettled dispute or anger because we read in the Bible where it says if you go to bed angry and don’t settle it you open the door for the devil to come in during the night. So Ephesians says that so we said that we’d never go to sleep with an unsettled dispute. We saw the sun come up a few times –
Audience: [Laughter]
BILL: – but we were faithful! Amen. If you’re going to live together, why not make it a joy instead of a misery? Come on. Well I don’t have time to deal with that. But, update, relate and activate. This year is an open door that no man can shut, opportunities and advancement. So it’s an open door this year amen.
Audience: [Applause]
BILL: Now let me help you – I’m going to give you a short synopsis. I’ve written 3 books on the prophetic – and we believe in practical reality. I mean, you’re real. You don’t have to [gasp] you know. When I was on the Benny Hinn program I was talking about you don’t have to get the monkey anointing like we did in Bengali and go [hoots] you know.
Audience: [Laughter]
BILL: I like to feel good all over more than anywhere else, but when I don’t feel anything and my soul or in my body, that doesn’t stop me moving in the spirit. Moving in the spirit has nothing to do with your soul or body. I mean I’ve prophesied till 4 o’clock in the morning many times over 3 or 400 people and after you prophesy for 2 or 3 hours your body goes dead, your soul is dead, you just open up soul and body and let spirit flow. Amen. But some of you still want tingles up and down the spine or goosebumps or palpitations of the heart. That’s good to have, but you don’t have to have it. Just like if you’ve been married over 10 years you don’t get that every time you kiss your wife.
