Jim Bakker Show - The Key Issue We've All Been Ignoring - Kenneth Copeland on The Jim Bakker Show Aired: 2019-04-12 Duration: 01:57 === Praying For Authority (01:57) === [00:00:00] There is a key issue. [00:00:02] I learned this praying for Lyndon Johnson because I was just fed up with the way that Southeast Asian war was going on. [00:00:14] And the Lord asked me one day, he said, do you know him? [00:00:17] I said, no, sir. [00:00:19] He said, do you know anybody that knows him? [00:00:21] I said, no, sir. [00:00:23] He said, sounds like to me you don't know much. [00:00:27] I said, you're right, sir. [00:00:29] He said, now I told you in my word, first of all, pray for kings and those in authority, that the church live in honesty and peace and godliness. [00:00:36] Now you get busy. [00:00:37] So I just started praying for him in the spirit. [00:00:39] And just started praying for him in the spirit. [00:00:42] According to Romans 8, 26 and 27, I just kept praying for him in the spirit. [00:00:46] I fell in love with the guy, man. [00:00:48] And he came on television then several months later, and I had just walked into the room and just flipped the TV on, and he was on. [00:00:59] Now, before I'd say, you know, I wonder what he wants. [00:01:06] When I heard his voice, I just flipped it on and walked into the bathroom. [00:01:11] I heard his voice. [00:01:12] The love of God rode up on inside of me. [00:01:15] Instead of criticism. [00:01:17] Now, he's just a man that needs Jesus. [00:01:20] Instead of wasting my time being critical and judgmental and let it eat a hole in me, it didn't hurting them. [00:01:27] But my faith is not working when I do that. [00:01:30] Because faith works by love. [00:01:32] No love, no faith. [00:01:34] No love, no gifts of the Spirit. [00:01:36] Are you listening? [00:01:37] No love, no grace. [00:01:39] It's still powerful. [00:01:40] For it is by faith, so that it might be by grace. [00:01:47] So you just need to stay in love and just stay strong in Jesus and don't let anything bother nor bug you.
