THE WORD OF FAITH

PUBLISHED  BY KENNETH  E.  HAGIN  EVANGELISTIC ASSOCIATION,  P. O. Box 50126, -TULSA,  OKLA.  74150 May, 1968  Vol.  I No. 2

WITH  REV.  HAGIN  ON THE

GOSPEL  CIRCUIT

Following  our Seminar inMarch,  I went to Chattanooga,Tenn.  for a Rally Day sponsoredby  the Chattanooga chapter ofthe  F.G.B.M.F.I.  This  Rally

was held on Friday night and allday Saturday, M a r c h 22, 23.Here  the  Lord  met us in a mostunusual  way and I believe  I hadthe g r e a t e s t anointing tominister on Saturday night  thatI  have had for many a year.

On  Sunday, March 31, I ministered in Calvary Assembly inOrlando,  Florida. We had two

wonderful  services here with anumber saved, baptized in theHoly  Spirit and healed.

On  Tuesday,  April 1, I drovefrom  Cleveland, Tenn. to  Leb

a Prayer and Faith Seminar;August 9-18, a Prayer and Healing  Seminar. Make plans  now toattend.  We  will  learn how topray properly for our nationin  this  tragic year.

WEAPONS  OF OUR WARFARE

The believer whose eyes havebeen opened to the comprehension of his t h r o n e rights in

Christ should begin to exercisethe spiritual authority which hasbeen conferred upon him. Themoment he does, though, hemust  realize  that he is a markedman.

Therefore,  the  devil  will  doeverything in his power to keepyou  from coming to  this knowledge.  Then after you do, he' lloppose you and try to steal it

l

from  you. There  will  be  testsand some  will  fall.  The  devilwants you to throw up your

hands  and say  that  it won't workfor  you. One time a man cameto me in a meeting when Iwas preaching on  this  and toldme  that it wouldn't work for him.I  told him if it didn't work,then  God was a li ar . This manwas the same as calling God aliar. I'd  rather  die  than  to saythat  God's  Word  doesn't work.If   it didn't work, it's because

I  didn't work it. God's  Word

doesn't  fail. The enemy bitterlyresists  your  entrance  into hisdomain because he's exercisingthe  authority  of the powers ofthe air and wants to continue toexercise  them. He  resents  interference.  He'll  concentrateall  his forces against you in anintensive warfare. If   attacksagainst your spir it are successfully  resisted,  then  assault  will

come  in mind, body, family, orcircumstances. You might aswell  get ready for them becausethey're coming.

The place of special  privilegehas become a place of specialdanger. There is no  truth thatencounters  such  opposition asdoes the  a u t h o r i t y  of theb e l i e v e r .  The Spirit prayed

through Paul  that  the eyes of thepeople  would be opened,  thatthey would know the full p rovision  that  had been made fortheir s a f e t y . I've seen  goodpeople whom the  devil  has triedt o o v e r t h r o w .  They've  endeavored  to teach  these  truthsor have been taught these truths.They've  endeavored to act uponthe  Word  of God. Many timesthey've  been overthrown in bodybecause they couldn't be ov erthrown in spirit. The devil  hastried to defeat them in any wayhe could. Safety had been provided  for them, and if they wouldhave  taken  advantage of it theenemy could not have defeatedthem.

The  b e l i e v e r  must be constantly  arrayed with c e r t a i nkinds of armor.  E p h e s i a n s6:10-17  s ays , " F i na l l y mybrethren,  be strong in the  Lord,

and in the power of his might.Put on the whole armor of God,that  ye may be able to  standagainst the wiles of the  devil.

For  we wrestle not againstflesh  and blood, but againstprincipalities, against powers,against the  rulers  of the  darkness  of   this  world, againstspiritual  wickedness in highplaces. Wherefore take unto you

the whole armor of God, that yemay be able to withstand in theevil  day, and having done all, tostand.  Stand  therefore, havingyour loins girt  about  with  truth,and having on the  breastplate ofrighteousness; And your feetshod with the preparation of thegospel  of peace;  Above  all, taking the shield of faith, wherewithye  shall be able to quench allthe  fiery  darts  of the wicked.And  take  the helmet of salvation, and the swordof the Spirit,which  is the word of God."

The  different  parts  of   thisa r m o r symbolize c e r t a i nspiritual attitudes which the believer  must  maintain. Wearingthis  armor , the believer is protected and  unhampered  in hisminist ry of authority. All he

needs to be concerned  about  isthat  he keep his armor brightand  well  secured  about  him.

First,  there's  the girdle oftruth,  which  represents  a clearunderstanding  of God's  Word.

Like  a soldier's belt, it holdsthe  rest  of the armor in place.Second,  there  is the breastplateof   righteousness. This has atwofold  application, for first ofall  Jesus  is our righteousness.First of all we put Him on. Italso indicates our active obedience to the  Word  of  God. Third,our feet are shod with the' preparation of the gospel of peace.This  is a faithful ministry  heralding the  Word  of God. Fourthis the shield of faith. We knowthat  a shield is a covering forthe whole body. This indicatesour complete safety and refugeunder  the blood of Calvary,where no power of the enemy can

penetrate.Then  there  is the helmet of

salvation, which is referred toin I Thessalonians 5:8 as thehope of salvation. The hope ofsalvation is the only helmet thatis able to protect the head inthese  days of   turning  from thetruth.  Then finally  there  isthe sword of the spirit, which isthe  Word of  God. This shows that

the  Word  of God is to be usedin an active sense. The otherweapons are more or less defensive  ones.

The  18th verse says, "Praying always with all prayer andsupplication in the Spirit, andwatching  thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for

al l  saints." We are.ready for theprayer fight now because  we've

got  on the armor. Praying inthe Spirit gets the job done.

AUTHORITY  OVER DEMON

. SPIRITS,  NOT  HUMAN  WILLS

Although  we have  authorityover  devils and demons, we donot have power over our  fellow

men or their  wills.  A few  yearsago  while preaching a camp

meeting in California, a  pastorfriend  of mine from Fort Worthaccompanied me. He had  sugardiabetes and had to check hisurine  every morning for  sugarcontent to determine how muchinsulin he needed. He had togive  himself a  shot  every day.As  we were leaving for Cali fornia, I told him, "You won'tregister any  sugar  as long asyou're with me ." I claimedauthority  over  that  disease. Helooked  at me as if he didn'tbelieve  me, but he was withme almost two weeks and neverregistered any  sugar.  He evenate pie and cake, yet his  testsshowed  no  sugar.  He later toldme  that  he was home three daysbefore  he  started  registering-sugar  again.

You  see, I had control overunseen  forces but I didn't havecontrol over his  will.  I could

control it as long as he was withme and  this unseen force was inmy presence. I tried to convincehim  that  he could do tha^samething, but he expected it to comeback and it did.

We  don't have control overhuman  wills,  but we do haveauthority  over the  devil who endeavors to maintain controlover  these  wills.  Years ago

AUTHORITY  -Continued

when  my older brother wasbound by the  d e v i l ,  I said,"Satan,  in the Name of   JesusChrist, I break your powerover  my brother's  life,  and Iclaim  his del iverance and salvation." In approximately twoweeks he was saved. For fifteenyears I had been trying to gethim saved. Nothing had everworked,  but when I took   thisstand  and exercised my authority  it worked.

Somebody  else said  that  theybelieved  they would try it andsee if it worked. It won't becauseI  didn't try it, I DID IT . Sometimes children of God say  thatthey  will  try something  just

because it worked for one person. But if they  will study God'sWord  and clothe themselves inGod's  Word  of authority, it  will

work   for them. When you try toact upon God's  Word  withoiltreally  having  that  Word  builtinto your spirit, the  devil  will

whip you badly. But when you'vegot  a foundation of God's  Wordand act upon it,  you'11 defeat thedevil  in  every  combat.

The  Bible  differentiates be

tween  casting out devils andhealing the sick. Many timescertain things don't respondto prayer and laying on of  handsbecause of an  evil  spirit. Onelady,  a member of a BaptistChurch in New Orleans, wasmentally deranged and confinedto an institution. A certain  university  professor acquaintedwith  her case used it as anillustration in his teaching. Oneday a Baptist minister whomI  know and who had rece ivedthe  Holy  Ghost went to prayfor  her. He  cast  seven devilsout of her, and immediately shewas all right. This made  suchan impression upon the professor  that  he invited the ministerto come and talk about it . As aresult,  the professor's  wife  re ceived  the  Holy  Ghost and has
