Time Text
Rabbi's Trip Prayer 00:03:48
You did something about the unplanned, the movie planned.
And you took that on.
And, you know, you talked about how tight money had been at one time.
And then God helped you.
But you were so, you just took out a check and I just sent him a million dollars at that moment.
I, you know, the story I was in, I was leaving for Israel.
I'll kind of reach out part of it.
I was, and this was about a year and a half ago.
And I was.
Was that when you went with Rabbi?
No, that was the trip.
Was it Kenner?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, it was.
Yeah, that was that trip.
Yeah, that was.
I mean, I just.
No, that's when I got baptized in the Jordan River.
That's right.
There it is, right there.
Rabbi sent us a picture.
There I go.
That's you in the Jordan River.
That's right.
White people love the rabbi.
We love the rabbit.
He was so awesome.
I met him, and then he, of course, he had to sit right in front of me on my bus.
So he got a kick out and I fell asleep in my seat.
I think, you know, well, it was like in Israel, I could do it, look at all the stuff during the day, do my work because of the time change back here, call him back and forth.
So get to bed about one in the morning and start over again.
It was fun, but so it was so amazing over there.
That was amazing.
We went on a trip with Rabbi.
Yeah, absolutely.
Hilanders.
There's nothing like it.
There's a whole show just on that.
Absolutely.
But my trip, but my trip, you know, that whole trip to Israel, it started out divinely as we were waiting to leave.
You know, and I get a call from the airport, this guy, and he goes, I hadn't talked to him in three years, just an acquaintance.
And he goes, yeah, this is Michael.
Mike, this Michael, and he said, I got a couple producers here.
Now, I wasn't into movies.
He knew I was going to do a movie someday from my book, you know, and I'd been, and, but he said, I got two producers that we prayed about, and you're going to be in our movie as a cameo.
And I go, I haven't prayed about it.
What's this movie all about?
He tells me, you know, this true story of Abby Johnson.
How she was with a director for Planned Parenthood.
And then what she's seen, she just totally went the other way, got attacked for leaving, everything else.
And I said, well, let me pray about it.
I got off the phone, prayed with Kendra.
And not even three minutes, I called him back.
I said, okay, I'll be in it, but I want to make sure that it's not just a good movie with good content.
I want it to be a good movie, too, not just with a good message.
And I said, are you short any money?
They said, yeah, we're short a million dollars.
And I said, well, just a minute.
Our plane's taken off.
And I wired the money without no contract or anything.
That was on faith.
And we got back from Israel and we filmed in a secret place in Oklahoma.
And it's funny, I got down there, and then these guys tell me, you know what?
We really had prayed about the money too.
And they said, call Mike Lindell.
They needed it that day or the movie wouldn't be here.
So it was such timing.
But I'll tell you, I got to tell a funny part.
We get down there to do now.
I'm going to do this cameo.
And I drive a bulldozer in the thing.
And you're going to get one shot at this.
So I'm dressed up.
And there's 300 extras.
And I had never been anything like this.
And all of a sudden, I look over and there's a guy dressed like me.
And he's going to be, he's a stunt double.
And I said, oh, no, I'm doing, I'm driving this bulldozer.
This guy don't even have a mustache.
And I'm sitting there and I go, and now the producers are all worried because the sun's going to go down.
You're only going to get one shot at this.
And they're going, they're talking about safety and stuff.
I go, you didn't tell me this before.
I'm riding this.
I'm not going to go on national TV and say I had to have a stunt double to drive a bulldozer.
So anyway, I get in there.
Miracle Movie Timing 00:02:05
They finally agree and I get in there and I put it in reverse and it's, whoa, it's getting low.
I forgot to take the emergency breath.
So I'm going, boom, boom, boom, boom.
And I go, boom, boom, boom, boom.
And I stick my hand out.
Do we want it though?
Let's just do it the way we practice.
I go, please God, please God.
You know, I get out.
When you see me cheering, it's because I pulled it off.
But it was a miracle movie for me to be able to use my platform now with God's timing when that came out because we were attacked for the rating of the movie.
We were, I don't know, I, it's funny, I didn't get attacked as much as I think somebody else would have because I've already been attacked for going all in for the president and everything else.
And so I've kind of been through it.
They go, oh, you know, we attacked Mike Lindell and he keeps doing the same old stuff.
We went all in and bold everyone in the movie from the from the Abby to Ashley, most amazing actress I've ever seen.
Oh, I think ever.
And we went in, even with all the attacks, they took us down on Twitter for two hours the day of the movie launch.
It was banned in Canada.
It was banned in Canada.
Then it finally got through.
It was just, it was, in every country, it was a battle because of the message and because of the message.
That's right.
Can you imagine they let loose the most filthy, horrible motion pictures in the world?
Right.
And they banned something to save little babies.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is how sick we become, people.
But you think, look at this, you know, Pastor, with the timing.
When this movie came out, it was all over the news about New York lighting up buildings for killing babies and Virginia for killing babies.
And here they're, you know, then they got stuff on the other coast where, hey, let's save the minnows, but kill the babies.
That's right.
Come on.
This is where, but the timing of the movie was absolutely God's timing.
Absolutely.
You couldn't, you know, everybody and the movie, when they, even though they tried to stop it, it just went everywhere.
I mean, they expected the success of that movie to be one-fifth what it was.
Nobody could explain it.
We could.
