JERRY: Hello, everyone. I'm Jerry Savelle. Thank you for
joining me today. What a pleasure it is to have you watch
our broadcast. Let me just say that all of you that write to us
and share your testimonies, thank you for taking the time
and doing that. Also, those of you that send in your prayer
requests, we appreciate your confidence and we stand in faith
with you in believing God for the miracle that you're
believing for. Let me just say this to you. You can always
depend upon God. God is faithful. Amen. Say that with me
right now. My God is a faithful God. Keep that in the forefront
of your thinking at all times, that God is faithful. This week,
we're going to continue talking about God is always working
behind the scenes. We began talking about this last week. If
you missed that broadcast, let me just reiterate some of the
things that I mentioned, especially Ephesians chapter
three and verse nine from the Message Translation. The apostle
Paul says this, "My task is to bring out in the open what God,
who created all this in the first place, has been doing in
secret and behind the scenes all along." That's where I got that
phrase. God is working behind the scenes. God is always
working behind the scenes. Even though it may not look as though
anything's happening don't ever say again, "Nothing's
happening." Yes, it is. The moment you pray, according to
Mark the 11th chapter and the 24th verse, Jesus said, "What
things soever you desire, when you pray, believe you receive
them, and you shall have them." Kenneth Hagin taught us many,
many years ago that the moment you start believing you receive
is the moment you pray. When you say amen to that prayer, that
means so be it. As far as you're concerned, something began to
happen in the spirit realm. If you'll hold fast to your
confidence and hold fast to your faith then, praise God, what's
already happening in the spirit realm will eventually manifest
in the natural. Now, you know, if all of our prayer manifested
in the natural in the next few moments, that would be great,
but that's not the case. It doesn't happen that way all the
time. I've had it happen sometimes, but most of the time,
I began doing what I learned from the apostle Paul in
Ephesians chapter six, "Having done all to stand, stand there
for it." In other words, I may have to stand for a time, I may
have to stand all day, all week, all month, and sometimes all
year, but the truth is if you determine that giving up and
quitting is not an option, then eventually it will come to pass.
"Brother Jerry, you mean I have to wait a year?" No, I didn't
say you have to wait a year, but sometimes it could take a year
for what you're believing for to come to pass, not always, but
just be prepared to stand. I like what Kenneth Hagin used to
say, "If you'll prepare to stand forever, then it won't take very
long." Praise God. Just make up your mind the moment you pray
and ask God to meet a need in your life, then prepare to stand
and believe that God is working behind the scenes. Now, at the
close of last week's broadcast, I was getting into 1 Kings
chapter 17. If you have your Bibles handy, I want you to turn
there with me. 1 Kings chapter 17, excuse me, and verse one,
"And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of
Gilead, said unto Ahab, 'As the Lord God of Israel liveth,
before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years,
but according to my Word.' And the Word of the Lord came unto
him, saying, 'Get thee hence, turn thee eastward, and hide
thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan. And it
shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I have
commanded the ravens to feed you there.'" Now, notice this. God
says, "Go down to the brook Cherith." Now, remember, Elijah
had already said there's going to be a drought. There won't be
any rain according to the Word of the Lord. God tells Elijah to
go down to the brook Cherith and there he has commanded the
ravens to sustain him. Now, notice, "I have commanded."
That's past tense. That means before Elijah ever got to the
brook, God was already working behind the scenes. He had
already commanded the ravens to sustain him. The Bible says, "So
he went and did according unto the Word of the Lord: for he
went and dwelt by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning, and
bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank from the brook."
Notice God was already working behind the scenes. When the
prophet had arrived there, he had already prepared to meet
that need in his life. Then, if you keep reading, in verse seven
it says, "And it came to pass after a while, that the brook
dried up, because there had been no rain in the land. And the
Word of the Lord came unto him, saying, 'Arise, get thee to
Zarephath, which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold,
I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain thee.'" Notice
once again, after the brook dried up, God hath already
commanded a widow woman to sustain the prophet. God was
already working behind the scenes. Notice once again, "I
have commanded." That's past tense. Before the prophet ever
got to Zidon, God had already been working behind the scenes,
had already prepared to meet the need of his prophet. That
proves, once again, that God is always working behind the
scenes. Now, what your part is, dare to believe he's doing it
for you. Don't ever say again after you pray, "Nothing's
happening. Nothing's working." No, that's not true because the
moment you prayed and you said amen, once again, amen doesn't
mean the end. Amen means so be it. In other words, what you
prayed, you are declaring so be it. It will be just as I've
prayed. Now, in order for it to come to pass, you're going to
have to start believing that God went to work in your behalf the
moment you said amen. Get out of your vocabulary, get out of your
thinking, "Nothing's happening." Don't say that because the
moment you say, "Nothing's happening," it's almost like you
put the brakes on and everything stopped working in the spirit
realm. You have to guard your vocabulary. Watch what you say
after you pray. If you've asked God to meet your need
financially, then don't say in a few moments, "Well, I guess God
didn't hear me. I guess my prayers didn't get any higher
than the ceiling. It looks like God never does anything for me."
Quit talking like that. You know, the Bible says in Psalm 78
that they limited the Holy One of Israel. The way they limited
him, if you'll read that entire Psalm, they limited God when
their small thinking and their negative talking. Quit. I almost
said be quiet. That's a good thing anyway. Be quiet. If you
can't talk the Word, shut up. Don't even talk if you can't
talk the Word. Just be quiet, but also be quick to speak the
Word of God. No matter what's happening around you, no matter
how impossible it may seem, be sure to keep speaking the Word.
If somebody should ask you, "I heard you prayed the other day
for that financial need in your life. Is anything happening?"
Well, you could say, and it wouldn't be a lie, it wouldn't
be exaggerating. You could say, "I believe I received when I
prayed. Even though I don't see anything happening, my God is
working behind the scenes." That's what you need to say.
That's not a lie. That's not exaggerating because the Bible
says, "God calleth things that be not as though they were."
That's what you're doing. You have the faith of God and that's
the way his faith operates. After you get through praying,
don't say, "Nothing's working. God never does things for me."
Quit talking like that. Begin to say, "God, you're working behind
the scenes. I believe you're working in my behalf even now.
Even though I may not see anything happening, even though
it looks just as impossible after I prayed as it did before
I prayed," you just keep saying that God is working behind the
scenes. I like to call it this: giving God something to work
with. That's what you do. You speak the Word and God promises
that his Word will not return void. Notice if God worked in
behalf of his prophet Elijah, he was working behind the scenes,
then why wouldn't he do so for you? You know, Elijah was not
even born again. He wasn't filled with the Holy Spirit, but
God worked in his behalf and you are born again. You are filled
with the Holy Spirit. If you're not, well, we
can settle that right now. Just simply confess
Jesus as the Lord of your life. Believe that He heard
you, and believe that you'll receive the answer to your
prayer. And praise God, ask Him to fill you with the Holy
Spirit, He will do it. Now that you're born again and filled
with the Holy Spirit, why wouldn't He work on your behalf,
just like He did Elijah's? So, these are just basic principle
of living a life of faith. Believe you receive when you
pray. And dare to believe that God is working behind the
scenes. Now, I've shared this testimony with you in times
past, but I want to share it with you again because not all
of you may have seen that broadcast. Years ago when I
first start out in the ministry, the Lord said tome that I'll not
be able to fulfill what I'm called to do without airplanes
in my ministry. He said, "I want you to believe me for airplanes,
and I want you to believe for them debt free." He said, "I
don't want you flying airplanes with debt on them. Believe for
airplanes debt free." Well in the natural, that was impossible
looking. I'd never owned a car up to that time that was debt
free. Now God's talking airplanes. And so, in spite of
it looking utterly impossible, I began to pray and I said, "Lord,
I'm asking you for the airplane that I need to fulfill what
you've called me to do." Now, it didn't come to pass right away.
In fact, it didn't come to pass in a week, I didn't come to pass
in a month, it didn't come to a pass in a year. In fact, it was
several years before it actually came to pass. Now, in the
meantime, I'm confessing that I have an airplane for this
ministry. The Bible says that we are to call things that are not
as though they were, just like God operates. We have the same
spirit of faith. So, I began saying, "I have the airplane
that I need to fulfill what God's called me to do." I
believe I received when I pray. Now if you were to ask me, "has
it manifested yet?" Well, in the natural no it hasn't. But, I
believed I received. And so, I just stood on the Word of God.
Now, not one person came up to me during that time and said,
"Brother Jerry, I was praying the other day and the Lord told
me that you needed an airplane. I want to sow into that
project." Not one person did that. And I'm talking about
months had gone by, even years had gone by. Now, I didn't bring
it up in meetings, I didn't talk about it, I didn't walk up to
people and say, "I'm believing for an airplane. Is God speaking
to you?" No, I didn't do that. I just kept it to myself and
believed God, that He was working behind the scenes. Now,
sometime later, many years later, I'm in Andrews, Texas.
Excuse me, let me drink to that. I'm in Andrews, Texas and I'm
preaching in a laundry mat, and abandoned laundry mat because
the church that had invited me to come, when they found out I
was not ordained through their organization, they wouldn't let
me in the church. And so, a man found this abandoned laundry mat
that we could hold our meeting in. And so, I'm preaching and
there's just a handful of people. There couldn't have been
over 12, 15 people showed up in that meeting. The last afternoon
there was a man that walked in that building and he walked
right up to me. He didn't take a seat, he just kind of
interrupted the service and he said, "My name is Oop."
And Oop if you're watching this broadcast, you
and Patsy will never, ever realize how blessed I
was to meet you that day and what a great blessing
you were to me. Oop walked up to me, his
name was Oop and he said, "God sent me here
today." He said, "I was out riding my tractor, God spoke to
me and told me that there's a young man in Andrews, Texas
that's preaching in the laundry mat and I want you to help him
buy an airplane." He's telling me this story, then he gave me
money. Then he got ready to leave and he said, "If you ever
see me again, it'll be because God told me." He said, "I want
you to understand, I don't have a education." He said, "I never
learned to read nor write, but I did learn to follow the
leadership of the Holy Spirit. God spoke to me and told me to
do this, I'm doing it, and now I'm leaving." Then he got in his
truck and he drove off, and we're all standing there with
our mouths open. I asked my wife, I said, "Did that really
happen?" She said, "Yes, look at the money that he just gave
you." That was the first time in all these years that somebody
walked up to me and said God spoke to them and told them to
sow into my airplane. Now, it was not enough to buy an
airplane, but it gave me the confidence that God did hear me,
that God was working behind the scenes, and no matter what it
looks like, don't ever say again, nothing's happening.
Something was happening and now it's beginning to manifest. And
then a few weeks later, I'm up in Omaha, Nebraska, and Fred
Price, Pastor Fred Price from California, he and I were doing
a faith seminar together. Our wives were there with us, and
when the meeting was over with, we started out to the airport.
When we got to the airport, we said our goodbyes. Fred and
Betty went to their gate to fly back to Los Angeles, we went to
our gate to fly to DFW. When we landed, my office manager said,
"There's somebody that wants you to call them. They'd like to
take you to dinner tonight in Dallas." This is back in the
days in 1976. There were no cellphones, so you'd have to
find a payphone. We stopped at a payphone and we called these
people and they said, "Would you meet us in Dallas tonight at
this particular restaurant?" So, we agreed to meet. We were
almost there anyway, so we went over to Dallas. When we walked
in, we saw the couple, and this couple was Charles and Peggy
Capps and Vicki and Wes Jamison. And so, we're sitting
there having a nice dinner and having a wonderful conversation.
Vicki spoke up and said, "Jerry, the reason why we asked you to
come tonight is because God spoke to us some time back to
give you our airplane," and said, "We've been believing God
to pay if off because God told us to give it to you debt free."
Now, praise God. Man, this is music to my ears. They said, "We
were believing God to have it paid for so that we could give
it to you because we knew you needed it in your ministry. But
once again, God said, 'Don't give it to him until you have it
paid for'" and so, Charles and Peggy came to town and they were
visiting us. We just asked them to set themselves and agreement
with us for the money that was needed to pay the balance.
Charles asked, "Well, how much is it?" They told him and he
said, "Well, we can do that." And so, Charles and Peggy Capps
gave them the money that they needed to pay the airplane off
and they said, "Tomorrow we want to come to Fort Worth and
deliver your airplane because it's now paid for and we can
hardly wait to get it into your hands. And so, they came over to
Meacham Field, Fort Worth, Texas praise God. I already had my
hanger ready. And when that Cessna 310 pulled up in front of
my hanger, I'm telling you, I was shouting. You see, God was
working behind the scenes. Now remember, you remember the story
about Elijah, God had commanded? God had commanded Vicki and Wes
Jamison to pay this airplane off and give it to us. God was
already working behind the scenes. And then Charles and
Peggy Capps came along and they were part of the miracle in
producing that airplane debt free. Let me tell you this, that
was nine debt free airplanes ago. God has always been working
behind the scenes. He always will work behind the scenes, and
I want to encourage you with that testimony that God is
working behind the scenes for you right now. Once again, get
out of your thinking nothing's happening. Get out of your
vocabulary, nothing's happening. Yes it is. Something's happening
in the spirit realm. Even though you can't see it, but
something's happening. The angels are at work for you, God
is working for you, the Holy Spirit's working for you. God
has already commanded this to be done in your behalf, and so you
stay in faith. Don't ever, ever give up. Quitting is no longer
an option in your life. Can you say that? Quitting is no longer
an option in my life. You just keep in the forefront of your
thinking that God is working behind the scenes. Let me read
Hebrews 10:23: let us hold fast the profession of our faith,
without wavering. Without wavering, for He is faithful
that promise. What does it mean without wavering? Wavering means
that some days you get up and you're talking faith, some days
you get up and you're talking doubt. Some days you get up and
your back talking faith, some days you get up and you're back
talking doubt. That's wavering. Don't do that. Stay in faith.
The Bible says, let us hold fast the profession or the confession
of our faith, without wavering. Why? Because, he is faithful
that promised. The Message translation says, let us keep a
firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always
keeps his Word. Keep a firm grip on the promises that
keep you going, why? Because he always keeps his Word. Then
verse 35 and 36, of Hebrews chapter 10 says this, "Cast not
away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of
reward. For you have need of patience that after you've done
the will of God, you might receive the promise." Say it
with me, I refuse to cast away my confidence. Confidence is
just another word for faith. Say it this way, I refuse to cast
away my faith. Why? Because it has a great recompense of
reward. In other words, if you won't throw away your faith, if
you won't give up on the Word, then God promises that your
faith will be rewarded. Then he says you have need of patience,
what does patience mean? It means being constant,
consistent, never changing regardless of the circumstances.
Practice patience, don't give up, don't throw in the towel so
to speak. The Bible says, "After you've done the will of God,
then you will receive the promise." The Message
translation says, "So don't throw it all away now. You need
to stick it out. Staying with God's plan so you'll be there
for the promise completion." Isn't that what you want? A
promised completion. So how do you get there? The secret is
this, and it's really not a secret, it's all over the Bible,
but most people don't know it, so the secret is this, stay in
faith, don't cast away your confidence, don't waver.
Believe, dare to believe that the moment you pray, that's when
God went into motion. That's when the angels went to work.
That's when the Holy Spirit went to work. Praise God, something's
happening behind the scenes, and if you'll just stay in faith,
it's going to manifest in the natural. God is not a man that
he should lie. If God said it, that settles it. I've had this
attitude ever since I came to the Lord in 1969. If God didn't
intend to bring this to pass, he shouldn't have put it in my copy
of the book, because once I see it, then I'm going for it, and I
refuse to give up until it happens, praise God. Did you
receive today? I trust, praise God, your faith has
gone to another level. I want you to watch this
special announcement, then we'll be back in just a few moments.

JERRY: Thank you again for watching the broadcast today.
I trust you were blessed. I trust your faith was inspired.
Let me give you this one last scripture before
we close, Psalm 84 verse 11, "No good thing does he withhold from
those who walk uprightly." God is not in the business of
holding out. God is in the business of getting it to you.
So dare to believe you receive when you pray. Dare to believe
that God is working behind the scenes, because God wants to do
some good things in your life. No good thing will he withhold
from those who walk uprightly. Let me share some testimonies
with you before we leave the air today; this is one from Lynn,
and it goes right along with what I was teaching you today,
"I had been working on a children's book series that was
not being picked up by any publishers. After years that it
seemed lying dormant, I stayed in faith, believing that my
series would get picked up and, praise God, a publisher called
out of the blue, offering to publish the first book. I'm
working now on the next one, I expect to see even greater
things happen this year. Glory to God." Notice, God was working
behind the scenes, even though she had written this book for
children, and it looked like nothing was happening. See?
Don't ever say that, "Nothing's happening." Something was
happening, she just couldn't see it yet, but eventually, praise
God, a publisher picked up her book, and began to want to
publish it, and now she's already working on the next one.
Praise God. Thank you Lynn for sharing that testimony. Here's
one from Paul, he said, "I received a $12,000 raise at
work. It was totally unexpected, and no one else in my department
received any increase in their pay. After asking my boss about
it, he stated that they gave me a raise because they noticed the
excellent job that I had been doing, and I know this
definitely is the favor of God on my life." Paul, we rejoice
with you, and praise God, and I believe there's even more in
store. Praise God. Once again, don't ever give up on God. Order
this special book today, No Boundaries. Don't limit God.
Don't think that God is limited in any way. He is totally
unlimited. He does above and beyond all that we can ask or
think. Great book, and I know it's faith inspiring. Here's a
series that goes right along with what we were teaching
today, How To Go From Amen, To There It Is, what do you do
after you say Amen? What do you do when you're standing in
faith, and believing? What happens between Amen, and there
it is? You're going to enjoy this series, so I encourage you
to get it right now. Order it while it's fresh on your mind.
Don't forget to ask for our magazine Adventures In Faith, we
want to send it to you free, no charge. It'll be a blessing to
you. It will continue to minister to you. Thanks again
for joining us today. I want to encourage you to join me again
next week as we continue talking about how that you can be a
winner in life. Amen. Until then, Jerry Savelle reminding
you that your faith will overcome the world.
ANNOUNCER: Next week. JERRIANN: Proverbs 14:12 tells
us, "There's a way that seems right. There's
a way that seems right to men, but the weight thereof
is death." It could be death to your dream. If Satan can get you
distracted, and discouraged, and detoured from your dream,
then you'll never fulfill God's destiny for your life.
