Two days later she called again. She had checked on his condition and had found that Dub had walked out of the hospital with his back in a cast. He hadn't died, like the doctors had predicted, and he wasn't paralyzed.

He came to our home in Garland, Texas, and was very despondent and depressed, because his wife had left him and had taken the children while he was gone. I was preaching in my home church that Sunday morning and I tried to get him to go with us, but he wouldn't. He was a baby Christian, just barely saved.

Right in the middle of my sermon, I suddenly had a vision. I had my eyes wide open, but out in front of me I saw my brother in the city park. I heard him say to himself, Well, I know what I'm going to do. I'm going to kill her and then I'II kill myself.

I stopped dead still and said, "Wait a minute. I've got a little matter I've got to take care of here. Then I'll get back to my sermon."

I spoke to that devil that was tormenting him: "Devil, you stop that right now! I adjure you in the Name of Jesus Christ to leave that man" (the congregation didn't know who I was talking about, but the devil did). That's all I said. Then I went back to my sermon.

When we got home, my brother was at the house, and he was obviously in good spirits. He said he had walked to the park and had decided to take matters into his own hands. I told him, "Well, I knew that," and I told him what I had seen.

He said, "Something came over me suddenly, and it was like something lifted up from me. It was as if a cloud lifted from me, and I came back to the house whistling and singing."

Dub didn't know how to touch the Lord for himself because he was just a baby Christian. Sometimes those of us who are older in the Lord have to help baby Christians, and thank God we can. The time will come in their lives, however, when they will have to know how to do some things for themselves. We won't be able to act for them then.

Learn To Be Exalted

We Christians must learn that we are seated with Christ. We must learn to be exalted to the place where God wants us!

The Church fails too often in this ministry of authority.

Instead, She is bowed down in defeat and is overcome with fear.

Ephesians 1:22 says, "And hath put all things under his [Jesus'] feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church. " Jesus is Head over sickness, disease, and anything else that's evil, as He proved when He was here on earth.

By reversing the words, we'll bring out the deepest meaning more clearly: " .. .head to the church over all things." Jesus is Head over all things for the Church's sake.
