Not Just Words
//Kenneth W. Hagin
Do you remember the word God gave to Abraham—“Your descendants shall be as numerous as the sand on the seashore and the stars in the sky”? (See Gen. 22:17.) Those were not just words. They were words from Heaven. And they were full of God’s miracle-working power!
Every time Abraham looked up into the night sky, he was reminded of God’s promise. The condition of his own body and the deadness of his wife Sarah’s womb had no effect on him whatsoever. Romans 4:3 says, “Abraham believed God. . . .” And after many years of waiting, the promise became a reality when his son Isaac was born.
Who's in Charge? WE ARE!
//Kenneth W. Hagin
It seems as though we can't turn on the television or radio without hearing about tragic events happening in the United States and around the world. At the same time, we hear people say, "God is in charge." Others counter that claim with, "Of God is in control, He sure has things in a mess."
What's New at Rhema Bible Training Center
//Tad Gregurich
In 1974, Kenneth W. Hagin sat down at a makeshift desk with a typewriter and his old Bible college handbook to write the curriculum for RHEMA Bible Training Center. At the time, he had no idea of the impact the school would have on the world. Neither did his father, the late Kenneth E. Hagin, who once told a minister friend, “Think about what we could do if we trained 40 or 50 students a year!”
A Word From God ... and a One-Way Plane Ticket
//Mike Keyes
Mike Keyes boarded a plane in Tulsa in 1980 with a one-way ticket to the Philippines. He had $20 in his pocket and a footlocker with a few changes of clothes and his books and notes from RHEMA Bible Training Center. One thing he didn’t have was the assurance that someone would pick him up at the airport.
Let Nothing Move You
//Lynette Hagin
There’s a verse in Acts chapter 20 that I encourage all of us to commit to memory and always endeavor to live by. Let’s read the two preceding verses with it so we can see exactly what the Apostle Paul was experiencing when he wrote these powerful words.
ACTS 20:22–24
22 And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there:
23 Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions abide me.
24 BUT NONE OF THESE THINGS MOVE ME. . . .
Lighting Up This Generation
I vow this day to lift the banner high
And to walk in the truth sown into my life.
-From The RHEMA Alma Mater
With the words of their alma mater ringing in their hearts, RHEMA Bible Training Center’s 36th graduating class has been sent out into all the world to preach the Gospel (Mark 16:15).
