It Works in Every Nation

It doesn’t matter what language you speak, whether it’s English, Spanish, Russian, Korean or any other language in the world, the Word of God works wherever you are. It doesn’t just work in sections, it works all the way whether you’re talking about healing and health, prosperity, peace of mind and heart, the Word of God works through any language in the world!

On January 1, 1996 I (Frances) received a phone call from Acapulco, Mexico. The caller said, “Frances, how would you like to celebrate your 80th birthday with a healing explosion in Acapulco?” The Holy Spirit quickened me and my answer immediately came back, “Yes, I would love to celebrate my birthday that way!” That was the start of one of the most incredible healing explosions we have ever bad in our entire lives. The first training session was a great surprise because they had to take it outdoors to an amphitheater because the crowd was so large and instead of a crowd between 800 and 900 they had over 2,400 at the first training session and learn they did!

When the night came for the actual healing explosion the faith of the people had risen so high because of the miracles they bad seen happen during the training sessions, and believing what we said was true, “if Charles and Frances can do it, you can do it too,” they attacked the sick people with an aggressiveness that we had never seen up until that time.

We asked the people who were healed to come up on the stage and tell what they were healed of and before long we had a line of 100 people testifying as to what God had done for them or for their children. Several mothers were ecstatic as they reported, “My little girl or my little boy has never walked in her or his entire life. Look at him or her run.” We would look and see a little child running all over the stage who had never walked in their entire life. We would ask them who did the healing and they would say, “I don’t know.” They would then suddenly realize it was Jesus but not an individual anywhere there.

For at least two hours we had between one and two hundred people on the stage testifying as rapidly as they could about their healing. We had to have two translators because it was such a huge work that it would have worn out one translator. So, we had to have two who took the people one right after another one. All of these miracles were done through ordinary believers.

It was heartbreaking to us to have people come up and say, “I was blind but now I see” and we didn’t even have time to find out what had caused their blindness or how long they had been blind, all we could say is, “Great, next.” We had such a line up on the stage that it was impossible to spend much time with anyone.

When the lights went off at midnight or thereabouts there was still a line of over 100 people waiting to get up and to testify what God had done! When people come with such tremendous faith as they came to those meetings, it’s so easy for anyone to lay hands on the sick and see the incredible miracles happen.

The people on the healing teams said that the power of God was so strong in the area where the people came down to receive healing that they didn’t even get to lay hands on a lot of them before they got healed. Approximately 45 people from the United States had gone to Acapulco to be a part of this celebration and they said the same thing that they had never seen such a display of the awesome power of God.

One young man who had very poor eyesight sent his sunglasses up and he said, “I just know if somebody lays hands on them, I’ll be able to see perfectly.” Hands were laid on his sunglasses and they were sent back to him and his sight was instantly greatly improved! You don’t have to be a “star” to see incredible healings, you just have to be obedient. Remember, if Charles and Frances can do it, you can do it too, even if you speak Spanish.

Often people ask us, “How do you stay so excited ail the time about Jesus?” There is only one reason: Christianity is not a religion, it is a way of life that you live 24 hours out of every day. Remember always that Christ in you is the hope of glory! Start believing that He is actually living inside of you and that when you stretch forth your hand, that’s the hand of Jesus to be laid on the sick. The more this becomes a living reality in our lives, the more all of us can accomplish for the kingdom of God, regardless of where we live or what language we speak. We don’t believe the people in Acapulco will ever be the same again!

Russia is an incredible place!

Three years ago we went to Kiev, which is the bread basket of Russia, and taught the people how to minister healing to the sick. We do not know of any other country where they were so hungry to learn this wonderful ability that God has given to all of us. When Jesus said, “Those who believe will lay hawk on the sick,” that’s exactly what He meant. You just have to be a believer, be obedient, and then get out and do it.

At the first healing explosion in Kiev, we had many of the children who suffered birth defects as a result of the Chemoble explosion. Many of these children are blind in one eye and many of them are crippled but what an exciting thing to see these children come up on the stage and be able to see with two eyes because one of the Ukrainians had laid hands on them and they were healed! Many children who had never walked were running around the auditorium that day because somebody believed that they could lay hands upon the sick and see them recover! And they did!

There was a very exciting aftermath to the two healing explosions! Four months later we went back to the Ukraine again. As we visited various churches, they would bring three or four people who were critically ill and who had come out from the hospital for us to lay hands on and as soon as we laid hands on them, then the pastor would say to us, “Now, we want you two to sit down and watch and see what we have learned!”

We could hardly believe what we were seeing. These Ukrainian people are so aggressive in laying hands on the sick that we saw incredible miracles as we sat down and watched these Ukrainians do it,.

In church after church we saw exactly the same thing and had the same request from the pastor, “You sit down so we can show you what we have learned.” How it thrills our hearts to see the body of Christ in any country come alive and become aware of the fact that God can use them!

The Soul of Korea

What a wild exciting time a very recent trip to Seoul, Korea was! We spoke for three days at a Presbyterian pastors’ meeting, attended by pastors from all over Korea.

Of the crowd of over 1,000 pastors and their wives, not more than ten had received the baptism with the Holy Spirit. We spoke the first night on the Holy Ghost and Fire – Catch It! When we made the call for the baptism with the Holy Spirit; no one was more surprised than we were at the response. They had listened to every word we said and every bit of teaching that we did in the Word on the baptism with the Holy Spirit and all but about fifty responded to the call for the baptism with the Holy Spirit They continued responding as we started to minister the baptism with the Holy Spirit, and an additional forty came forward. There were only about ten people left in their seats! We assumed that these had already received.

As Charles ministered the baptism with the Holy Spirit and they all began to speak with other tongues, there was a sound that went through the entire auditorium that was not like any sound we had ever heard in all of our lives! The rushing mighty wind of the Holy Spirit made a sound in the most powerful manner you could ever imagine as they all began to speak with other tongues!

The morning teaching sessions on How To Heal The Sick were unbelievable because of the awesome response and hunger of the pastors to learn how to minister healing.

On the final morning session, after the healing teaching, we had them hold hands in the pews because we wanted to give them a special anointing for healing and since we had laid hands on all of them for the fire of God the first night we decided to run down the aisles and touch the hand of the person on the end of the pew.

They went under the power in rows! It was like ocean waves!

People who were in the middle of the pews said they never realized that the anointing could reach so far in and touch them! One of them said that it was just like a ball of fire hit them in the stomach as we ran down the aisles.

The final service was “The Charge,” and afterwards, we said, “Now, we give you your first opportunity to do what God said to do.” We commissioned the eleven pastors who were up for the Charge and some of the other leaders to stand up and to start laying hands on the sick.

It was one of the most unbelievable sights that you could ever imagine as these pastors who never had the baptism with the Holy Spirit, who never even dreamed that healing was for today, were laying hands on people! People were being healed and going out under the power of God all over the auditorium.

The pastors had an incredible time! God is raising up tremendous leaders in Korea. That nation will never be the same!

If they can do it in Korea, you can do it, too!
