“You will not die; your baby will be fine!  You will carry the baby full term; you will deliver the baby, and the baby will live!  Be of good cheer, for I, the Lord am with you; and so shall I be with your child!  Thus saith The Lord God almighty!”

“Brother Bill, pray for me!”  I heard a voice call out somewhere in the crowd.  As I looked to see, a young woman, with tears streaming down her face came running toward me.  In her expression, I saw the look of desperation as she arrived to stand in front of me.

The Miracle Service had just begun about an hour before.  We had enjoyed praise and worship for about thirty minutes; I had brought forth the Word of life, and the actual prayer time was just starting.  Earlier that day, I had prayed for God’s special touch to minister to His people!  I was down on my knees in the living room, crying out to the one God who could make a difference in so many desperate lives!

God had demonstrated His tremendous love for His children so many times in these meetings.  We had seen several brain tumors healed; two little girls who were delivered of oncoming blindness; and others with heart problems completely healed with doctor’s verifications.  The list would actually go on and on of the things the Lord had done as we prayed.

This particular day I will never forget.  Many had been prayed for and the Spirit of the Lord was moving!

This was when I began to hear the young female voice crying out, “Brother Bill, pray for me.”  As she approached the altar where we were praying, I knew God was about to do something phenomenal. 

She began to explain how she had seen a doctor after discovering her pregnancy.  Thinking it was just a routine visit with the physician; her whole world seemed to fall apart as he gave the unwanted news.  “You cannot carry this child – your heart cannot take the stress of childbearing — either you will die or you will lose the child. My advise to you is to get an ABORTION.”  Sobbing even harder than before, she cried out, “Pray for me.”

After she had finished telling of the horrible situation she was in, we gathered around her to pray.  About ten men and women placed their hands on her.  I began speaking in tongues in order to enter into the spiritual realm.  You see, I have learned that nothing can be done in the natural.  Speaking in tongues as the Spirit of God gives utterance is our way of entering into the spiritual.  In the Spiritual mode, all things are possible. 

Being familiar with the gift of prophecy, I could feel the Word of God coming forth from deep within. 

“You will not die; your baby will be fine!  You will carry the baby full term; you will deliver the baby, and the baby will live!  Be of good cheer, for I, the Lord am with you; and so shall I be with your child!”

Through sobbing tears, the pregnant woman walked back to her seat with new hope deep in her heart.

She returned several times to the Miracle Services for prayer.  The Spirit of the Lord spoke the same Word over and over until her delivery drew near.  I tell you of a truth, she had that baby, and the child was healthy.  Little Carrie is nine years old now, and has a three-year-old brother who is also healthy.  God certainly has plans for those two children.  The devil tried to steal those kids, but the Lord brought deliverance to a crying mother who believed Him for a miracle!

Faith Must Have A Work

Just like the woman with the issue of blood that we find in the Bible, this woman believed if she could touch God with her faith, all would be well.  Miracles do not just happen on there own.  This particular woman had to believe the Word of God concerning her situation.  It’s not enough to say that I believe God, but she put feet to her believing and came to a meeting where God was moving by His Spirit.  If you want what God has, you have to come where He is moving and where these kinds of things are happening.  Its not enough just to have faith.  The book of James speaks to us about these things.

Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. Yea, a man may say, thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works.

All who are born-again have faith.  The Bible says,

For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he aught; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith (Romans 12:3).

We must do something with our faith.  The woman in our story came to the Miracle Service.  The fact that she came was an act of faith.  A lot of folks will tell you that they can get what they need from God right there in their living room.  That may be true as long as you are exercising your faith in some manner.  This woman knew she needed to get where God was moving by His Spirit.

The Importance of Humility

Another thing about this miracle was that the woman humbled herself in the sight of God.  The Lord really can’t do anything with someone who is unteachable or high-minded, thinking that they know it all.  There’s only one who knows all things and that is God Himself.  The Bible says,

Wherefore He saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble.  Submit yourselves therefore to God.  Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.  Draw nigh unto God, and He will draw nigh unto you (James 4:6-8).

Humility is a must to receive what God want to do in your life.  Whether you need healing, salvation for your family, or a financial miracle, we must humble ourselves before God.  When we humble ourselves, we are saying to our Heavenly Father that we are unable and we know that He is able.

Two Or More Believe Together 

I have learned this lesson over and over as I have held hundreds of Miracle Services believing God for the supernatural to take place.

Again I say unto you, that if two of you shall agree on earth as touching anything they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.  For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the midst of them (Matthew 18:19-20

Christianity is not meant to be lived alone.  Those who have separated themselves from the rest of the body are trying to live this thing by themselves.  The Bible is very clear that we are to assemble together to share our needs and testify of the goodness of the Lord.  Your testimony may be what I need to get through another day.  But what if I don’t hear what I need to hear.

And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as we see the day approaching (Hebrews 10:24-25).

The Bible teaches on the power of agreement.  This is where two or more will come together such as we did with the woman in our story.  Two or more have come together to agree upon whatever they need.  The Word of God gives us perfect direction concerning this agreement.  If you agree, it will be done.  This woman came to be with others who were trusting God for the needs of others as well as their own.
