SOUL Winning and Discipleship

Dad Hagin thought a lot of Sister Jeanne Wilkerson, she was an awesome Prophetess! There were times she would come in a service of Dad Hagin's and sit in the back of the room. Dad Hagin would stop in the middle of his message and say, "Sister Wilkerson, I know your here because I felt you when you can into the room. Come up here and deliver whatever the Lord has placed in your heart." He was so sensitive to the Spirit of God he knew when that woman of God was there in the service and had a word from the Lord! Wow, we need more people sensitive like that, that they'll know by the Spirit someone in the in service has a Word from the Lord besides them. That's what you call being Spirit led!!

Kenneth Hagin shared a prophecy he once received from this great prophetess 👇
I had a supernatural experience years ago
At a seminar in 1968, Sister Jeanne Wilkerson, an established Bible teacher and prophetess (who has since gone on to be with the Lord), prophesied that in the fall of that year I would have an experience similar to Enoch’s in that I would be caught up to Heaven. Enoch was caught away in the flesh — his physical body departed from this earth (Gen. 5:24; Heb. 11:5). But Sister Wilkerson prophesied that I would be caught away in the Spirit and would receive revelation from God.

I didn’t do anything to try to make that prophecy come to pass. I just continued to serve God. Then in the fall of that year, my only sister, Oleta, died of cancer when she was only fifty-five years of age.
Oleta had been sick once before and had almost died. When I prayed for her, she was healed. She was a spiritual babe in Christ at that time, so I could get her healed on my faith in the Word. But this time when she got sick, she was no longer a spiritual baby, so I couldn’t get her healed on my faith. We won’t be able to carry other people on our faith indefinitely because God expects each of us to grow up in faith.
So my sister died in the fall of that year. In fact, our family was all gathered around my sister’s bed on the evening she drew her last breath. About 1:30 the next morning, I was lying in bed thinking about what it must have been like for my sister as her spirit left her body, and she ascended to Heaven to be with the Lord.
I thought about the time my own heart stopped beating on August 16, 1933, as I lay on the bed of sickness. When my heart stopped, my spirit left my body, and as I looked back down, I could see my body lying there on the bed. I saw my mother holding my hand. Then I thought about my sister again. When she died and left her body, she must have looked down upon all of us gathered around her bed and seen our love and concern.
As I was thinking about this, suddenly a bright, golden beam of light from Heaven about as big as an elevator shaft penetrated right through the ceiling. When that light touched me, my spirit left my body. I went right up through that beam of light as if I were going up an elevator, until I reached Heaven.
In Heaven, I saw my sister talking to Jesus. When I walked up to them, Jesus stopped talking to her and looked at me. When Jesus looked at me, my sister turned around to see who Jesus was looking at and saw me.
The first thing my sister said to me was, “Ken, don’t feel so badly that you couldn’t pray the prayer of faith for me. There was a reason why you couldn’t.” (She didn’t tell me what the reason was.)
Sometimes God doesn’t reveal to us the reason why some people don’t receive their healing. Deuteronomy 29:29 says, “The secret things belong unto the Lord our God. . . .”
My sister told me she had already seen Granny and Grandpa, my mother’s parents. She also said she had seen her grandson, Jason, who had died when he was three years old. Then she said, “Kenneth, I saw Ann.” Ann was her daughter who had died as a result of an automobile accident when she was only twenty- five years old, leaving behind two small children.
My sister continued, “The first thing Ann said to me was, ‘How are kenneth and children?’ (Bill was Ann’s husband.) I didn’t tell Ann that Bill had remarried.”
Then my sister said something that came as a real revelation to me. She told me, “You see, people up here are not interested in the natural side of life of those living on the earth. They are not concerned about whether or not you buy a new dress or a new suit, or how much money you have in the bank.
“They are concerned about spiritual things. They don’t know what happens in your life in the natural realm, but they know everything you do spiritually. They know when you make a decision for Christ.”
My sister was talking about the cloud of witnesses in Heaven watching us as we run our spiritual race. That was the revelation Sister Wilkerson had prophesied I would receive during this experience. Before this experience of being caught up to Heaven, I’d only had a hint or glimpse of that revelation.

Incidentally, when Sister Wilkerson prophesied that I would be caught up to Heaven like Enoch and receive revelation, she also said that another person would be involved in a similar supernatural experience. My older brother, Dub, was that person. The same night I was caught up to Heaven, Dub had a similar experience. Dub was also caught up to Heaven and had a conversation with our sister, just as I had a short time earlier.

At the time this happened to Dub, no one could have accused him of being spiritual! Dub didn’t understand much about spiritual things, and his experience in Heaven unnerved him. He called me the next day to tell me about it. He had no idea I’d had a similar experience the same night.

THIS IS WHAT LEADS TO MY CONVERSION TO CHRISTIANITY!

To those asking questions about what led to my conversion from to .

Please read......

There is no Pastor or Church that got me converted from Islam to Christianity. I got converted through the meditation on both the books [the Bible and the Quran]

There is no Pastor or Church that got me converted from Islam to Christianity.
I got converted through the meditation on both the books (the Bible and the Quran)

My name is Musa B. Musa am Fulani by tribe, but why did I give my life to Christ?

Simply because Islam gives no guarantee of salvation, because Islam recognises that Jesus is the word of God, "so God the messiah" Therefore, the Saviour, Quran 3:45, unlike Muhammad, Jesus lived 33 years without ever sinning. Because where Muhammed recommends killing enemies (Quran 9:5), Jesus recommends loving them (Matthew 5:44), because Muhammed just affirms, but Jesus has confirmed His words with all kinds of miracles and the resurrection.

Because Muhammed is asking Muslims to turn to Christianity to get the truth Quran 10:94. Because despite Muhammed's claims to be the seal of prophets, he is dead and will never return, but Jesus will come back and redeem those who follow Him (even according to Islam).

Although Jesus Christ was surrounded by several women, He did not seek to have s*x with them, unlike Muhammad, because to this day, the name of Jesus delivers all kinds of captivity, unlike the name of Muhammad. Because several verses in the Quran acknowledge Christ Jesus as the Saviour.

Because there is light and guidance in the gospel (Bible) Quran 5:46.

Because those who refuse to believe in what God has revealed in the gospel (Bible) are the unbelievers Quran 5:47.

Because Muhammed recognises that he doesn't know where he and Muslims will be after death Quran 46:9

Because Jesus was born of a virgin (Qur'an 19:20-22)

Because Jesus was faultless (Qur'an 19:19).

Because Jesus was a great healer of the sick (Qur'an 3:49; 5:110)

Because Jesus is a Sign (Qur'an 19:21; 21:91)

Because Jesus is a Mercy (Qur'an 19:21)

Because Jesus can create and give life (Qur'an 3:49)

Because Jesus is the Messiah (Qur'an 4:171)

Because Jesus is the Word of God (Kalima Allah) (Qur'an 4:171)

Because Jesus is the Spirit of God (Ruh Allah) (Qur'an 4:171)

Because Jesus was taken to heaven by God (Qur'an 4:158)

Because Jesus will come back again (Qur'an 3:45)

Because Jesus is the straight path (Qur'an 43:61)

After my conversion, I went deep into research. That's when I realised the Islamic jesus is not the same as the Biblical Christ Jesus.

But even with that, I'm glad that I was able to know the truth I have been searching for years through the help of God and the leadership of the Holy Spirit

Only Jesus Christ saves. He is the way, the truth and the life. Come to Him and be saved.

Hallelujah to Jesus Christ 🙏🏼 Marilyn Hickey

In 1957, Wally and I officially plunged into ministry. My aunt, Adlyn Moore, was a big piece of the divine puzzle. Aunt Adlyn attended the First Assembly of God church in Dalhart, Texas, which had a membership of about 60 people. That small congregation became the birthplace of our ministry. The pastor was a kind man named Fred Ball. Because Aunt Adlyn talked to him, he invited us to minister in the church.

Even though Wally was new to public speaking, Pastor Ball gave him his pulpit. That was a big deal! Pastors didn’t just yield their pulpits to younger men starting out in ministry, but God had opened the door, so we traveled to Dalhart to hold four days of special meetings at the church.

Wally had not preached from a church pulpit before, but he had been in plenty of meetings and had learned a lot from sharing in Sunday school, prayer meetings, and other small venues. Most importantly, he knew how to seek God. So, Wally fasted and prayed all day, every day, and preached at night.

My tasks were simple: getting the word out and evangelism. Every day, while Wally prayed at Aunt Adlyn’s home, I went with a team from the church into the
neighborhoods, knocked on doors, and invited people to the meetings. Sometimes the people invited us into their homes, and we prayed with them. The results of the door-to-door personal invitations were outstanding.

It is an unbelievable feeling to see God use your life to make a positive difference in the lives of other people. When people came to our meetings, many of them received salvation and were filled with the Holy Spirit. We saw lives transformed and people restored. We were essentially duplicating ourselves and birthing real disciples. The services were very encouraging and gave Wally and me a glimpse into how life in ministry would look and feel for us. God had given us a blueprint.

When Sons Disregard Fathers:
A Lesson from Archbishop Duncan-Williams and Archbishop Benson Idahosa

I write this because when I said that Dr Sunday Adelaja should have taken caution when rebuking fathers, some people disregarded what I was saying.

Some thought I meant fathers cannot be corrected. That was not my point at all.

Fathers can be corrected. Leaders can make mistakes. No man is above God. No man is above Scripture. No man is above accountability.

My concern was not correction itself.

My concern was the spirit, tone, posture, and platform of correction.

There is a way to correct fathers. There is a way to speak to those who have gone ahead of us. There is a way to address elders, pioneers, and spiritual fathers without dishonouring the grace, sacrifice, pain, and battles they have carried for generations.

One life that teaches this lesson powerfully is the life of Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, the founder and presiding Archbishop of Action Chapel International in Ghana.

Archbishop Duncan-Williams is widely recognised as one of the fathers of the charismatic movement in Ghana and West Africa. His ministry has impacted nations through prayer, intercession, spiritual warfare, apostolic leadership, and the raising of leaders. Many know him today as a man of prayer, a father in the faith, and a voice of spiritual authority.

But his journey did not begin with fame, platforms, influence, or titles.

He was born on 12 May 1957 in Ghana. His early life was marked by struggle, survival, and what many would call divine preservation. His birth itself was surrounded by difficulty. He grew up through painful family circumstances and had to navigate life with many unanswered questions. His father became more involved in his life much later, and like many boys without consistent fatherly presence, he had to learn survival early.

Then in 1976, while hospitalised at Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital in Accra after a tragic accident in which he lost three fingers, God met him. Christian nurses ministered the gospel to him on his hospital bed. That encounter changed the direction of his life. He gave his life to Christ, received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and developed a burning conviction to preach the gospel.

In 1979, he began what later became Action Chapel International as a small fellowship in his living room in Accra. What started small grew into one of the most significant charismatic ministries in Ghana and beyond, with churches and affiliate ministries across Africa, Europe, North America, and other parts of the world.

But behind this great man was another great man.

That man was Archbishop Benson Andrew Idahosa of Nigeria.

Archbishop Idahosa was one of Africa’s greatest Pentecostal fathers. He was bold, fearless, apostolic, and visionary. He founded Church of God Mission International and raised many sons in ministry across the continent. To Duncan-Williams, Idahosa was not just a preacher he admired from a distance. He became a spiritual father.

Duncan-Williams came under Idahosa’s influence, training, and covering. He studied at Idahosa’s All Nations for Christ Bible Institute in Benin City, Nigeria. Through that relationship, he learned ministry, boldness, faith, courage, preaching, spiritual authority, and the value of apostolic leadership.

He later testified that God told him, in essence, that Idahosa was his Bible school. In other words, he was not only to learn from lectures and books; he was to watch the man, study his life, observe his ways, and learn the secrets behind his greatness.

That alone is a powerful lesson.

Sometimes God does not only train us through classrooms. He trains us through fathers. He trains us through proximity. He trains us through correction. He trains us by placing us under people who carry what we need for our next level.

But there came a painful season in Duncan-Williams’ journey.

As his ministry began to grow, Action Chapel became more visible and influential. God was using him powerfully in Ghana. Doors were opening. The work was expanding. He was no longer an unknown young preacher. He was becoming a voice.

Then an incident happened.

A publication connected to Oral Roberts reportedly referred to Action Chapel as a branch of Archbishop Idahosa’s ministry. Duncan-Williams felt this was wrong because Action Chapel was not technically a branch of Church of God Mission. In itself, wanting clarification was not wrong. It is understandable that a leader may want his ministry to be represented accurately.

But the problem was not the concern.

The problem was the posture.

Instead of handling the matter with patience, humility, and honour, he reacted strongly. When Archbishop Idahosa called him so they could address the matter, Duncan-Williams refused to go.

That was the dangerous moment.

It was no longer just about a publication. It had become about a son disregarding the voice of a father.

According to Duncan-Williams’ own testimony, Archbishop Idahosa later wrote to him, releasing him from spiritual covering. In anger and pride, Duncan-Williams rejected the letter.

And then things began to change.

He later testified that after disregarding his spiritual father, battles began to intensify. The covering he once enjoyed seemed to lift. Things that were once easy became hard. Attacks increased. Difficulties arose. He spoke of spiritual battles, threats, and struggles that followed that season.

This is the part many people do not like to hear.

When he dishonoured his spiritual father, something shifted.

Not because Idahosa was God. No man is God. Not because fathers are perfect. They are not. Not because spiritual fathers can never be questioned. They can.

But because God often works through divine relationships, and when we mishandle those relationships, we can expose ourselves to battles we were never meant to fight alone.

Duncan-Williams later realised that the issue was not just the newsletter. The deeper issue was pride. The deeper issue was that success had entered the picture. The deeper issue was that the son who had once needed the father had begun to feel strong enough to disregard the father.

That is dangerous.

After about two years, he met Archbishop Idahosa in London. This time, he did not go with explanations. He did not go to argue. He did not go to defend himself.

He humbled himself.

He fell at Idahosa’s feet and cried for mercy.

That moment changed everything.

Archbishop Idahosa forgave him, prayed for him, and restored him. According to Duncan-Williams’ testimony, after that restoration, the attacks ceased and things began to move again.

What a lesson.

A father’s covering is not something to play with.

A son may be gifted, anointed, educated, intelligent, influential, and successful, but if he loses honour, he puts his journey at risk.

Duncan-Williams did not learn that fathers are perfect.

He learned that fathers must be handled with honour.

He did not learn that correction is forbidden.

He learned that correction must be done with humility.

He did not learn that spiritual fathers cannot make mistakes.

He learned that sons must not allow pride to turn correction into dishonour.

And this is the point I was trying to make concerning Dr Adelaja.

The question is not only, “Was there something to correct?”

The question is also, “How was it corrected?”

Was it done with honour?

Was it done with humility?

Was it done with tears or with arrogance?

Was it redemptive or destructive?

Was it correction or public humiliation?

Was it the spirit of a son or the spirit of rebellion?

In this generation, people think boldness is the same as wisdom. It is not. Some people think exposing fathers makes them prophetic. It does not. Some people think attacking pioneers makes them courageous. It does not.

You can be right in your facts and wrong in your spirit.

You can speak truth and still dishonour.

You can correct error and still violate honour.

You can win an argument and lose covering.

That is why Duncan-Williams’ testimony is so important. He had to learn, through pain, that the way you handle fathers can affect your journey.

Many young ministers today are gifted but uncovered. They are loud but not submitted. They are knowledgeable but not fathered. They are bold online but broken privately. They know how to critique fathers, but they do not know how to honour them.

We must recover the fear of God in how we speak about fathers.

This does not mean covering up sin. It does not mean tolerating abuse. It does not mean protecting wrongdoing. Where there is abuse, manipulation, corruption, or serious error, truth must be spoken and people must be protected.

But even then, the posture must be right.

Correction should not come from bitterness.

Correction should not come from ambition.

Correction should not come from the desire to trend.

Correction should not be done to embarrass, destroy, or prove superiority.

Correction must come from a place of humility, grief, wisdom, and honour.

Archbishop Duncan-Williams’ life teaches us that spiritual fathers are a gift. Archbishop Benson Idahosa did not only train him; he shaped him. He corrected him. He covered him. And through that relationship, Duncan-Williams became a father to many others.

That is how legacy works.

Fathers raise sons. Sons honour fathers. Sons may later become fathers themselves. But when sons destroy fathers in the name of correction, they damage the very system that should have raised the next generation.

So my point remains this:

Fathers can be corrected, but fathers must not be dishonoured.

Correction is biblical, but dishonour is dangerous.

Truth matters, but posture matters too.

A son must never allow pride, success, knowledge, or public influence to make him disregard the father who helped shape his destiny.

Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams Church Of God Mission Int. Family Benson Idahosa Powerful Healings and Miracles

The sermon cannot rise in its life-giving forces
above the man. Dead men give out dead sermons, and dead sermons kill. Everything depends on the spiritual character of the preacher. Under the Jewish dispensation the high priest had inscribed in jeweled letters on a golden frontlet: “Holiness to the Lord.” So
every preacher in Christ’s ministry must be molded intoand mastered by this same holy motto. It is a crying shame for the Christian ministry to fall lower in holiness of character and holiness of aim than the Jewish priesthood.

Jonathan Edwards said: “I went on with my eager pursuit after more holiness and conformity to Christ. The heaven I desired was a heaven of holiness.”

The gospel of Christ does not move by popular waves.
It has no self-propagating power. It moves as the men who have charge of it move. The preacher must impersonate the gospel. Its divine, most distinctive features must be embodied in him. The constraining power of love must be in the preacher as a projecting,
eccentric, an all-commanding, self-oblivious force. The energy of self-denial must be his being, his heart and blood and bones. He must go forth as a man among men, clothed with humility, abiding in meekness, wise as a serpent, harmless as a dove; the bonds of a servant with the spirit of a king, a king in high, royal, in dependent bearing, with the simplicity and sweetness of a child. The preacher must throw himself, with all the abandon of a perfect, self-emptying faith and a self- consuming zeal, into his work for the salvation of men.
Hearty, heroic, compassionate, fearless martyrs must the men be who take hold of and shape a generation for God. If they be timid time servers, place seekers, if they be men pleasers or men fearers, if their faith has a weakhold on God or his Word, if their denial be broken by any phase of self or the world, they cannot take hold of the Church nor the world for God.
The preacher’s sharpest and strongest preaching should be to himself. His most difficult, delicate,laborious, and thorough work must be with himself.
The training of the twelve was the great, difficult, and enduring work of Christ. Preachers are not sermon makers, but men makers and saint makers, and he only is well-trained for this business who has made himself a man and a saint. It is not great talents nor great learning nor great preachers that God needs, but men great in holiness, great in faith, great in love, great in fidelity,
great for God—men always preaching by holy sermons in the pulpit, by holy lives out of it. These can mold a generation for God.

I love what Kenneth Copeland shared one time when he was visiting our church. He told us that, at one time, he had been uptight with God and had said, “God, You deal with me about
every little thing I do. Other ministries get away with things, but You are always on my back.” The Lord had spoken back to him, “The reason I am always on your back is because your mother is on My back!” Kenneth Copeland’s mother had been praying white-hot prayers on her son’s behalf, keeping him in the place where he could do what God had destined him to do.
Have you ever heard Kenneth Copeland’s testimony? As a young man, he was as wild and rebellious as anyone I’ve ever heard of. He even rode a motorcycle down the halls of his high school because he’d seen his movie “idol” do it. Ken soon became involved in drugs, drinking, smoking, and the whole mess! But can you guess what his mother was doing whenever he came home at two or three o’clock in the morning? You guessed it—she was on her knees, marking her son for God's service. She said, “God, my son is marked. It doesn’t matter what is going on around him; I have marked Ken for You, and he is not going to get away!”
Her white-hot prayers kept God’s attention focused on her son. God turned Kenneth Copeland’s life around, and he has become a powerful man of God.

Similarly, Hannah’s white-hot prayers moved God to remember her, and she became pregnant with Samuel. (See 1 Samuel 1:19–20.) I believe Hannah continued to pray white-hot prayers for Samuel while he was with Eli. Undoubtedly, Samuel knew he was marked. He began to know the voice of God at a very young age, when “the Lord called Samuel. And he answered, ‘Here I am!’” (1 Samuel 3:4).

Just as marking Samuel worked for Hannah and marking Kenneth Copeland worked for his mother, marking our children worked for Wally and me. And marking your children will work
for you!
The prophet Jeremiah also had been marked, and he recorded the Lord’s revelation to him about that truth: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I
sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations” (Jeremiah 1:5).
The word sanctify means “to set apart to a sacred purpose or to religious use.” Doesn’t that sound familiar? Remember,destine also means “to set apart.”

THE PURPOSE OF PROSPERITY ||
More Money Results in More Ministry.

Years ago, I was part of an association called the Voice of Healing, which was founded by Gordon Lindsay, a great man of God and a marvelous writer. The organization is now known as Christ for the Nations. Lindsay wrote the following back in 1961, and it is still extremely pertinent:
The main hindrance to world evangelization has not been for the want of devoted missionaries,nor is it the lack for trained nationals, which was a serious problem for many years. The hour has come when we have an eager army of gospel soldiers ready to launch out in faith and to preach the apostolic gospel. And they are doing it! Nor is there a lack of people responding to the message. Any missionary will tell you that almost every place an evangelistic effort is attempted, hundreds and in many cases even thousands will respond. Where then is the lack? It is in the lack of necessary financial assistance that often is not available at the moment the Spirit of God moves in a community.

How much more could your church be doing to minister in your city, in your community, in our nation, and around the world if more funds were available? Suppose your church's income was suddenly multiplied by four. Could it have a greater impact in reaching more souls, ministering to more saints, helping more poor people, or financing more missionaries? How many projects have remained in the dreaming or planning stage because the money to make them into a reality was never available?
Let's look at another section of T. S. Linscott's 1888 book, The Path to Wealth:
We find the Church of God descending to business methods in order to raise money enough to pay its expenses; hence, we have tea-meetings, bazaars, concerts . . . and all sorts of schemes to raise money; while the vast majority rob God of His tithes, and hypocritically sing:
"Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all."
If Christian people would live up to the Bible demand, and pay God one-tenth of their income, there would be no need for such methods of raising money—there would be enough and to spare; and I believe the Millennium would soon be upon us; for the conversion of the world is, in my opinion, now reduced to a question of money. We have the men and women whose hearts God has touched, and whose souls are aflame with missionary zeal; we have a Gospel that meets the requirements of all sorts and conditions of men; full provision has been made for the salvation of the world.
For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach, except they be sent? . . .
—Romans 10:1345
And how can they be sent without money? And how can they get the money except it be given them in God's appointed way, by the tithes of the people "who have heard the joyful sound?"3
Those are challenging thoughts. And I believe they are just as timely and appropriate today as they were more than a hundred years ago when they were first published.
