TRANSCRIPT:

Now when Ruth and I speak, we always begin with a proclamation because we have discovered that proclaiming the Word of God in faith is one of the most effective ways to release the power of God into a situation. In fact, I don’t think either of us would be alive tonight—we’ve passed through times of severe sickness—if we hadn’t learned to proclaim. “I shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.” There’s a dear precious Swiss sister in Jerusalem who had leukemia and was more or less given up to die. But she hasn’t died.

I think almost every night Ruth and I proclaim on her behalf, “Regula shall not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.” Oh, the power of proclamation.
