Praise ‘85 Plano, Texas

Transcribed and edited from:
Praise ’85 Plano, Texas audio

Hello, I’m Doyle Davidson, servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ, ministering locally to the Body of Christ in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas and sent by God to your house. I’m doing this audio from the office in my home in Plano, Texas on this Friday evening.

Welcome everyone. I am Doyle Davidson, as I said earlier.

I was a practicing veterinarian in North Texas, north of Dallas about thirty miles on 121 Highway and in 1969 after a very successful veterinary practice doing much of my practice equine; God told me to sell my practice, which was lucrative, in an ultra-modern facility. I was thirty-seven years of age. I knew God meant business and I had to obey him.

It was a blessing that I wasn’t looking for. I did not know that it was God’s blessings for me to be [an] apostle and a prophet. No I never expected that. That was not within my scope of thinking. I did not know what God wanted me to do.

But God has blessed me greatly, I even marvel within myself at what God has done with my life. As I set here in my office my emotions are even kind of up and down about what God has done in my life. I am not a very emotional person but I know what God has said to me to do and sent me to the world with the gospel, the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

In 1970 I had sold my veterinary hospital and practice and had followed the Lord in the wilderness for ten years. In 1980 God visited me and told me to go to Plano, Texas about fourteen miles south of where I lived and “speak to the people of Plano.”

I asked God, “What do I say?”

He said “Read Acts where the apostle Paul was at Antioch and you will understand.”

I did just what he said, the eleventh chapter of Acts and the thirteenth chapter of Acts. I was somewhat taken back to think that I was a prophet of God but I could read what was in the thirteenth chapter of the book of Acts. I knew the voice of the Lord; I knew what he had said to me. And I thought “Surely I’m not a prophet of God, oh, God, surely I’m not, a teacher, yes, but not a prophet.”

Well it just so happened that later I found that God had anointed me as a prophet to the world when he formed me in the belly of my mother, Alba Sarah Miller Davidson, a woman that I dearly loved, I know is in heaven along with my dad, Lyle Davidson. Thank God. Amen.

When I arrived in Plano I had not been ashamed of what God had told me to do or say. And God told me. “I want you to get the preachers of Plano together,” and I said, “I don’t even know one, how can I do that?”

So within a few days I had a call from the preacher, I had a very small veterinary practice office and I did a few ambulatory horses and a few small animals but I was following God and this preacher said, “I have a problem with a dog and I’ve heard you’re a veterinarian. May I bring him to you?

I said, “Of course.”

So he came and I examined the dog. I did not consider myself a small animal practitioner, rather an equine specialist, but God had humbled me greatly and I examined the dog and I said, “Your dog needs some surgery,” and he said, “Ok.” So I did the surgery and it was successful and this man happened to be a pastor, so-called, in a Plano church.

He came to get the dog and God said, “Don’t charge him.”

So I said, “Fine.”

He said, “How much do I owe you.”

“Nothing, all free. The Lord pays me.”

“Oh,” He said, “That’s tremendous.”

I said, “By the way, the Lord told to get the preachers of Plano together in a meeting.”

He said, “Oh, I know all of them, I will do it.”

I said, “Good.”

That was the wisdom of God; I didn’t even know a preacher. So he got together, I don’t know thirteen, or fourteen preachers, most were charismatics, not mainline, out of the mainline denominational people. They’re not in the mainline at all; if you’re in the mainline, you’re walking in the gospel, that’s the mainline.

So, we got together and had a nice meeting, had a breakfast. In September 1985 we had praise, we had a group that got together and praised the Lord, there were 500 of us. Thank God, amen. And several ministries gathered together. It was interesting to hear these preachers talk.

In September 1985, “Plano Praise,” or “’85 Praise” I think we called it, and I was talking to one of them and he said, “May I speak?”

I said, “Well sure.”

He said, “Do you know what God just told me?”

I said, “No, what?”

He said, “God told me you were a prophet; did you know that?”

I said, “Yes.”

“Well why don’t you ever tell it?”

I said, “Well I do when he tells me to, but he told you.”

This guy said, “Now I know why I have so many problems with you, you’re a prophet.”

He wouldn’t listen. That’s dumb to not listen to a prophet.

Another preacher--he said in the presence of several, “Doyle Davidson, if it’s in his heart it will come out for certain.”

I sat there and I thought, “Ha, ha. Well, if I told you what I knew about you in front of these people, you wouldn’t be happy.”

So now I’m going to tell it right now, he’s one of the biggest flatterers, flattering divination preachers I have ever heard talk. He flatters everybody that will stand still.

Well we had “Praise ’85,” it was successful, very successful. Most of these preachers are gone out of town, but the great flatterer, he still operates in Plano. Amen. Thank God, thank God, amen.

Perhaps I’ve said all that God wants said tonight on this audio, so this is Doyle Davidson from his office in his home in Plano. Good night.

God bless you.

Be Strong In The Lord And Fear Not

Transcribed and edited excerpt from:
Sunday 10:00 AM June 19, 2016 Livestream Broadcast

This is Doyle Davidson, Servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ ministering locally to the Body of Christ in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas sent by God to your house to declare unto the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ .

1 Corinthians 15: 3 and 4 tell us what the gospel is, how that Jesus Christ died for our sins, according to scripture, he was buried, he rose again the third day, according to the scripture.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, sent me to heal the brokenhearted, preach deliverance to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind and set at liberty them that are bruised.

The word is nigh thee, even in your heart and in your mouth, is the word of faith which I preach, if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you shall be saved, for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

I’m not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth, to the Jew first and also to the Greek, therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, the just shall live by his faith.

I want to welcome everyone receiving this on Livestream, Roku, Apple TV, YouTube and other devices.

I want Paul Peters to read Psalm 143, read about three verses, what has happened to me. My eyes are dim, I cannot read the word, I cannot see the word, I cannot see you; but my vision is beginning to return. I do not have a physician attend me—an optometrist, an ophthalmologist, no, just Jesus and I’ll be back to see and you’ll know that a prophet was sent to you.

3 For the enemy hath persecuted my soul; he hath smitten my life down to the ground; he hath made me to dwell in darkness, as those that have been long dead.

4 Therefore is my spirit overwhelmed within me; my heart within me is desolate.

This started happening to me in 2008, in December, when it became apparent something was happening and by early June 2009 I could not read anything with glasses, I couldn’t see the word and it progressed downward until January 2013 when I had Daniel Chapter 11:20-28 read to me and that’s America today; it tells us clearly what’s going on and within hours I couldn’t see anything and it’s been that way pretty much till the last few months, lights began to show up and I could see people’s hands and their faces, but I can’t tell who they are.

But, the Lord called me, ordained me in my mother’s womb as a prophet to the world. If you think I knew that or believed that you’re silly. I had no idea, I just knew that I needed to serve God but didn’t want to. I didn’t know what he wanted, so I didn’t until I was about thirty-seven years of age. You can read about this on my website; that’s not the purpose of today’s broadcast.

But, in 2009, the Lord was speaking to me through tongues and interpretations. My daughter Kathy Mai would give the tongue, she did since she was I don’t know how old, seventeen, eighteen, twenty—whatever it was, and I would interpret. But in 2009 she gave a tongue and this was the interpretation:

(Paul Peters will read one of these and then I’ll comment and then we’ll move to the next one.)

Interpretation of Tongue Doyle Davidson (tongue given by Kathy Mai) June 22, 2009

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. Why do you want? Because you won’t let the Lord be your Shepherd. The Lord desires to be everyone’s Shepherd. He wants to lead you in the valley of the shadow of death, he wants to restore your soul. He wants to deliver you from all evil. He wants you to submit to him, obey him. He’s the true shepherd, the good shepherd, the shepherd of the flock. He will lead you in places you cannot imagine. He will bring you to places you did not know existed, if you’ll stand up and follow him, hear his voice, this day, saith the Lord. For I desire to lead you in a place you cannot imagine that I have prepared for everyone who will obey me. For I desire to see you achieve what I have prepared for you, saith the Lord.

That was a warning to me, I interpreted it, it was warning to me but I didn’t know what was about to happen to me. I had no knowledge, no forewarning from God what was going to happen, I had been following God since January 1970, wholly. Things got more clear in August of 2009.

Interpretation of Tongue: Doyle Davidson (tongue given by Kathy Mai) August 9, 2009

The Spirit of the Lord is upon you to do you good. The Spirit of Life is greater than the Spirit of Death, fear not death. Be not afraid that you are going to die. You’re not going to die. Gird up your loins and believe this gospel. This gospel will minister strength to you. Fear not. Don’t let your flesh rule you. Let the man that’s inside of you that was raised from the dead rule you. Be bold. Yield your tongue and worship God, for my Son is in you to do you good.

Hallelujah. That was August. I thought, “This is incredible; you’re not going to die.” I had not planned on dying. I did not know what was facing me. I was facing death, head on. The enemy had persecuted my soul and wanted to destroy me, many enemies. It was frightening the things that followed. But God put in me, in my heart by the Spirit of God, “You’re not going to die. Fear not, you are not going to die.”

And I thought, “Incredible, I don’t want to die, I don’t think I’m going to die;” but listen to further things and see what took place.

Interpretation of Tongue July 25, 2009

The Lord would say to you, gird up your loins and be bold. Be ready to face what’s coming upon the earth. My Son warned you, it’s written in the bible of great troubles coming on the earth and men’s hearts would fail because of that. Men’s hearts would fail because of the troubles coming upon the earth. Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might and fear not what man can do to you. Not one hair will fall from your head. God will uphold you. God is talking to many here and all over the world, be strong. Be strong and fear not. No man will be able to withstand that by which you speak. No man will be able to withstand against it, just as Steven spoke, you will speak as well. Don’t be afraid.

Exhortation, comfort and edification, that’s tongues and interpretations; that’s the purpose of them. This was a comfort but it was exhortation. I could tell I was moving to some place that I had not been before. When you follow God since 1970, wholly, this didn’t come upon me completely without some warning. Notice, “the power of his might”, notice he’s talking about his power, his power—“…and be strong in the Lord and the power of his might…”

I knew he was talking to me, he’s talking to others, I don’t know how, but I know now he was talking to me for sure.

Interpretation of Tongue: Doyle Davidson (tongue given by Kathy Mai) September 28, 2009

It is time to lengthen the cords of your tent. Quit being afraid, cease to be fearful. Stand up and be bold. Be bold in the Lord and in the power of his might for I have ordained your steps. Fear not. Don’t be afraid of what people think, they are going to think no matter what you do so, stand up and be bold. Don’t give peoples’ tongues an opportunity to stop you.

Amazing, don’t bother what people think, they’re going to think. God mocks you people. You think all kinds of things about his servants. This encouraged me, more, yet I’m still not where I went. I didn’t know where we were headed.

Interpretation of Tongue: Doyle Davidson (tongue given by Kathy Mai) February 6, 2011

Fear not for the Lord is nigh them with a broken and contrite heart to lift you up. The Lord is for you, he is not against you. The Lord only opposes the prideful, but humble yourself and God will raise you up. God is high and lofty, but he himself dwells with them that are lowly in heart. The Lord desires that you walk with him and he will walk with you, he will be your Lord, he will lead you unto places that you never imagined you would go, the hour is here, the hour is here for my harvest saith the Lord, I am going to bring it in, I promised it in my word, in the days when wickedness reigned I promised that my Spirit would produce a great harvest, so don’t be dismayed, don’t be fearful, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might and you will see the salvation of the Lord. Amen.

Thank God. Christmas 2010, (this tongue was given February 11th)

I spent three days in great distress, great distress. I t was amazing, I wasn’t sure what was happening. Kathie D was with me; I spent most of that time in my bathroom, next to my office [in my home], I was praying most of the time. Something started rising up inside of me and it came to the umbilical area, it was not the umbilicus but next to it and a bulge began to form and I thought, “My goodness, what’s this?” I had opportunity to fear, great fear; I know a lot about medicine, both in man and animal. This thing enlarged, I guess, to the size of an orange. Amazing. Not necessarily painful but it was there. I got through that, you heard the tongue and interpretation in 2011.

Interpretation of Tongue: Doyle Davidson (Tongue given by Kathy Mai) September 3, 2014

Be strong in the Lord in the power of His might, the days ahead of you will require great strength to fulfill my purposes through you saith the Lord. Be strong in the Lord, the power of his might, fear not, no hair will fall from your head, you’ll be strong against those that oppose you, no man can stand, stand against you, no man will be able to stand up but they must bow at the name of Jesus for I’ve spoken it out of my mouth and it shall not return unto me void but what I’ve said shall accomplish what I desire through you, it is you, humble yourself and walk and fear not, don’t be afraid of kings, don’t be afraid of rulers, don’t be afraid of any man as you’ve been warned, don’t look to the right, don’t look to the left but look unto Jesus the author and the finisher of your faith and you shall prevail in every situation that confronts you saith the Lord.

Amen, thank God, hallelujah. That encouraged me greatly, but my friends, by now I am struggling with great pain in my abdominal, in my belly, I can’t even say abdominal cavity, amen, probably needed to say belly and I did; pain, a lot of pain and not with any understanding where it was coming from. In the book of Jeremiah it talks about roaring, the prophet, and his bowels roared. Mine had been roaring for two or three years but now things look tougher, they look much tougher.

Many times I resisted death. I say many, couple dozen. God had built in my heart strength, faith, to resist dying, resist dying. I was grateful what he had done for me. When these attacks would come they would last three or four, sometime eight or ten hours. They were stressful, scary but I never thought I would die. Never. I’d resist death with my faith. When they’d come I’d be on the floor or in bed, but every time, someone was with me. My staff, several times, were with me. God was always with me.

Prophecy: Doyle Davidson March 15, 2014

The Lord would say to you think it not strange the fiery trial that is going to try you for everyone of my servants will have their faith tried and perfected and the fiery trials is where the faith is really perfected to any degree or any depth so don’t think it strange if you’re in a great trial of affliction, if you are in great trouble, don’t think that strange, rejoice, throw up your hands and give God praise because the trying of your faith worketh patience and patience experience and experience hope and hope maketh not ashamed because the love of God is shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Ghost and this is the way that my gospel operates through my servants, saith the Lord. Now fear not, look to the left, no; look to the right, no, but look unto Jesus the author and the finisher of your faith and be bold and be strong for in due season you will reap if you faint not. Be bold, stand up, boldly speak my words, be strong in the Lord and the power of His might, do not pull back, do not fear. Have I not told you I will perform what I promised, you, amen, amen and my word shall not return unto me void but it shall accomplish the thing that I please so be strong in the Lord, power of His might, go forth proclaiming my gospel throughout the world saith the Lord.

Interpretation of Tongue: Doyle Davidson (tongue given by Kathie Davidson) June 28, 2015

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; humble yourself and the Lord will lift you up; look unto the hills, help cometh from the Lord. The Lord is your helper, the Lord has ordained your steps in his word, the Lord will perform every one of his words concerning you. Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might. Don’t let Satan speak to you anymore, just tell him that is a lie, rebuke him now, she is your wife.

I want to talk about the last severe attack that I had. It was right after Kathie Mai (September 10th), left the ministry, I was in my office [at the church], on the floor, much pain, and Satan was putting out a great effort to kill me and I knew it. I could tell it was stronger and I’m not sure how long this went on, doesn’t matter, but I was on the floor and I reached a point resisting dying, resisting with my faith, dying. And this time I could tell, my faith was weakening, coming down; at one point I said, “don’t let me die, don’t let me die.” And the attack grew stronger till I reached a place that my words were just a whisper. “Jesus”.

Now I want to say something to you , in 1975 in Kansas City, Missouri in a meeting of 3500 men, I had that kind of experience in a hotel room and I whispered “Jesus,” broke through, great power.

Now, I’m in a desperate situation, “Don’t let me die.” Everyone was praying I got to a point to where all I could do was whisper Jesus and there were people praying, this is on video, that night or a couple nights later and everyone was praying and I don’t know who said what, at all, but Terre Brown said power came up in her and she said, “I command life into you.” I thank God for her prayers, Kathie D’s, David Kaspareit, Anthony, Paul, whoever was in that room.

I suppose I must say, I had never considered until a few months back how close to dying I was. I said one day to KD, “You know I’ve walked through Psalm 23, the valley of the shadow of death.” I’ve walked in the shadow of death for several years but only that day would I say that. Anyway I overcame, thank God. I haven’t had such an attack since and I’m not looking for any like it.

Prophecy: Doyle Davidson May 6, 2016

The Lord knows they that are his, he knows them all, he knows the numbers of their hair, he is with them to strengthen them, to hold them up, no weapon formed against them shall prosper, every tongue that rises up against them in judgment, they shall condemn it, in Jesus name. Their heritage is of the Lord, this is the heritage of the Lord and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord God, thank God, hallelujah, fear not little flock, it is God’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom ; the Kingdom is power, the Kingdom is the power of God, the gospel of the Kingdom is power, press in, that Kingdom is right in front of you, keep pressing, saith the Lord, it is yours.

After that prophecy immediately God started moving; his power moving through me driving wickedness and malice out of my ministry. It was incredible what God did following that; “…the Kingdom is right in front of me…” and I believed that and things started changing in my ministry. People were driven out that resisted me for years, but no longer, no longer. It was a great blessing to see what God was doing. Tongues set on fire from hell sat in these seats out here for years, tried to destroy me, tried to bring me down, they couldn’t do it.

God is able to make his servant stand. Here I am.

Another Event In June

My heart is inditing a good matter: I speak of the things which I have made touching the king: my tongue is the pen of a ready writer. (Psalm 45:1)

The last Sunday of June 2008 I was speaking and I said,

“My ancestors came here to America so I could preach the gospel.”

Afterwards a woman came up to me and stood at my right side, and boy was she bold. She started talking and I thought who in the world are you?

She shared she was a descendant of a Mayflower passenger. She then retracted her statement only to verify it later that evening.

When I suggested she post about her ancestors she wrote a testimony “A Nation Bringing Forth Fruit” where she writes how God powerfully ministered to her by the Spirit of prophecy Matthew 21:42:

Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

I posted the article on my website on July 2nd. I believed as she wrote in her testimony, that Jesus is talking about taking the Kingdom of God from Israel and bringing it to the United States. I am even more convinced today.

A couple months later, I saw her car parked in the church parking lot and I walked over to the car, the door opened and although she wasn’t alone in the car, I looked directly at her and said,

“You most certainly are a prophetess and if you have anything to say to me, I will hear.”

Tonight I had dinner with her at a restaurant in Plano. Her name is Kathie Davidson, and as we ate dinner, we talked about the things of God, the things that were happening to my ministry. She said I’m a 14th generation descendant, from William Brewster and she recited in the bible some that were fourteen generations.

As we sat there, a man walked by and said, “You look like Sarah Palin.”

I said, “She is a cousin to Sarah Palin.” (Sarah Palin is also a descendant of William Brewster.)

As we sat having dinner and talking, heavenly places would manifest all around me and her. It was so beautiful.

I said to her, “We are eating in heavenly places.”

In 2014, the month of June, I began seeing things in visions as I was praying with Terre Brown and on June 26th I posted the following post:

“I Have Been To Heaven

I have been praying with Terre B since May 2010. In the past year the time I have prayed with her has greatly increased. For the past two to three weeks every time I would pray with her I would see ‘moving things’ that would be ‘dark’ with ‘light’ beside it and other things that were just ‘light’. Each time it would all be moving in the same direction in rows. I was praying with her and delivering her from wicked men to establish her righteousness.

Last night I saw these longitudinal movements, one was black side by side with light. Then I saw four longitudinal streams of bright. I didn’t understand what I was seeing. This afternoon as Terre and I prayed I sensed the presence of God as I have not felt since 1958 when He visited me in Columbia, Missouri (there He told me not to be a veterinarian but a minister of the gospel).

I said to Terre, I am not afraid, yet. I continued to pray. I said I believe that I am in heavenly places.

Ephesisans 2:

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 

6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus:

She did not see any of these things. I only described them to her as I prayed. As I continued to pray she was being delivered from spirits of wicked men that had bound her up and I realized what I was seeing was heaven with its mansions and its streets of gold.

As I continued to pray the vision enlarged and I began to see long, straight streets, diagonal streets, and large circular streets. I knew I was seeing into heaven’s streets of gold.

More to come later,

God bless,
Doyle Davidson
Servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ”

The apostle Paul wrote in Ephesians 2:

15 Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

16 Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;

17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:

18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

19 And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

20 Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from the dead, and set him at his own right hand in the heavenly places,

21 Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:

22 And hath put all things under his feet, and gave him to be the head over all things to the church,

23 Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all in all.

God Bless,
Doyle Davidson

A Life Lived Wholly Unto God - Chapter 19: Medicine is Witchcraft

A Testament of the Grace of God on His Servant
by Kathryn Currier with Doyle Davidson

God began talking to Doyle in 1986 about his medical books being curious arts. He had closed his veterinary practice in 1982, but had a number of clients in Texas and throughout the United States and he continued in a consultant capacity, which afforded him some income. When he told these clients that they would have to find someone else, they were not happy. One said to him, “Doc, there isn’t anyone else.” And he said, “Well you’re going to have to find someone else.” About the time God was talking to him about his books being curious arts, God told him to start giving ½ of the ministries money away. He wrote:

“During the month of August, God told me to begin giving one half of the ministry’s money away. When I shared this with Terry Mai he showed me Luke 19:8: “And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor…” I laughed and told him ‘This is easy for you to say Terry!’ Terry, being an affable person responded as he often did, with a big smile and a little laugh, and then walked out of the office. This meant that our television program which had just gone from $500 to $2000 per program now doubled to $4000 so as to give half away. We finished that year “in the black”. The ministry was completely out of debt and has remained that way since.”

A few days after that exchange with Terry, Doyle was replacing a 2 x 2 florescent light fixture in the hallway and it slipped and lacerated his wrist. As Doyle looked down at the cut, he could see clearly that a tendon had been cut. He went to find Patti and had her drive him to his physician’s office and when the doctor saw what he had done, he said, “Well you have destroyed your wrist.” Doyle just said, “Just sew me up,” but instead, his physician sent him to a specialist and by the time they were finished with him, it cost $5000. They put a cast on him and needless to say, he was not a happy man.

They were having dinner with Terry and Kathy after his arm had been casted, and he heard the Lord say, “Man ought to obey God and not a man.” He said out loud, “What?” Everyone at the table looked at him. He heard again, “Man ought to obey God and not a man.” He excused himself from the table, went to the restroom, and started taking the cast off. He got as much off as he could, and when he got home, found his tin snips and cut it the rest of the way off.

God had told him months earlier that medicine was witchcraft and he couldn’t believe that was true. When he questioned in his heart how the devil had access to him to injure his wrist he was immediately reminded of his medical books. God told him to get rid of his medical books and that day he carried them out to the dumpster and began dropping them in, one by one and he began to weep. As he threw each book in the trash he wept—God was delivering him of medicine.

He continued to have soreness in his wrist and one day he noticed a medical dictionary on his bookshelves that he had kept. It had Greek and Latin definitions in it and he thought it might be useful. As he stood there looking at that book the Lord told him to throw it away. He did and within a few short months, all the soreness was gone from his wrist and has never bothered him since.

The Lord told him, “Since you have obeyed me, my mercy will never depart from your house.”

How To Pray

Transcribed and edited from:
Doyle Davidson Audio Thursday June 16, 2016

Hello this is Doyle Davidson, Servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ ministering locally to the Body of Christ in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas and sent by God to your house to declare to you the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 10:

The word is nigh thee even in your heart and in your mouth, that is the word of faith which I preach, if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead you shall be saved, for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

That’s the gospel; if you believe it you’ll be saved. But I’m here to talk about prayer. God has had me praying since 1970 for America, the Body of Christ and so forth. The last few months I’ve noticed God has been causing my hands to move a lot more than they used to and I believe I have understanding; that my hands are warring; warring against the enemy and Psalm 18: 34, Kathie D is going to read:

Psalm 18:

34 He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms

Now, I believe that’s by the power of God. David was anointed to fight the battles for the Lord, as I am too. He anointed me to preach the gospel and the gospel is power, the ability of God. So when I’m speaking I notice how my hands—I think how that is uncharacteristic of me; I’ve never been that animated, but now I’m seeing its God in my hands warring against the enemy. And even breaking arms of the enemy, destroying their armour, destroying their arsenal against me. Thank God.

And that’s done with prayer and faith, the gospel and the Holy Ghost. Amen. Also, I’ve noticed God directed me more how to pray. It’s right in front of my eyes, it’s right in front of your eyes. KD would you read 1 Timothy chapter 2?

1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;

4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

7 Whereunto I am ordained a preacher, and an apostle, (I speak the truth in Christ, and lie not;) a teacher of the Gentiles in faith and verity.

8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

Thank you. I have the same revelation the apostle Paul had; those scriptures right there are the same for me. I have the same ministry the apostle Paul had and notice, there’s the types of prayer; the way you pray, you lift up holy hands without wrath and doubting. If you put your hands up and you’re angry at some person then you’re not in the Spirit. You may be angry at the devil, I don’t know; but doubting—you cannot be angry and doubting when you’re praying various kinds of prayer.

Now another thing that God is showing me, and I’ve seen this for many years, how Jesus looked up to heaven, opened his eyes and prayed. I’m telling you this is something God is perfecting in me. KD is going to read several scriptures here and then I’ll talk some more.

Matthew 14:

19 And he commanded the multitude to sit down on the grass, and took the five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to heaven, he blessed, and brake, and gave the loaves to his disciples, and the disciples to the multitude.

John 17:

1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee:

Mark 7:

34 And looking up to heaven, he sighed, and saith unto him, Ephphatha, that is, Be opened.

Psalm 28:

2 Hear the voice of my supplications, when I cry unto thee, when I lift up my hands toward thy holy oracle.

Psalm 63:

4 Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

Psalm 119:

48 My hands also will I lift up unto thy commandments, which I have loved; and I will meditate in thy statutes.

Psalm 134:

2 Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the Lord.

Psalm 141:

2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.

Hebrews 12:

11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

13 And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

When you’re being corrected, you lift up your hands, holy hands; you don’t let them hang down, droopy. “Poor old me, I feel so bad. I don’t like this correction.” Lift up your hands! Praise the Lord, give praise to God. See, when you lift your hands up, and then your weak knees—have I ever been there? I’ve been everywhere here, done everything you shouldn’t do; but I am moving more to doing everything you should do. How’s that?

And your weak knees—see when your hands are down, you’re not praying right. When your knees are weak, you’re not walking in paths right; but lift up your hands, and your weak knees and be healed!

Is that what it says? [Kathie: Let it rather be healed, yes]

That’s when you’re being corrected. Instead of saying, “Oh boy, I feel so bad. Oh God don’t you love me? Jesus I thought you loved me; if you loved me you wouldn’t talk so tough to me.”

Ah ha—ya. You don’t know what God will do.

Shape up! Gird up your loins! Act like a man, act like a woman! And accept your correction and be in subjection to the Father of Spirits and live.

God is correcting me, stand, sit down, oh, no there is a place in Samuel where David came and sat before the Lord. That’s past tense, what the word is: he set before the Lord, past tense, see?

But, that’s what you do, you sit before the Lord. And I do that a lot. And you can do that praying. That’s what I do more—I love to walk, I love to walk and I don’t like to put my hands up. My arms get tired, it takes work to do that and to walk is much easier than sitting before God and praying with your hands up, praising God. Oh much easier to walk, looking down to the ground. God’s in heaven, he’s not in the ground. Ha—ha.

God is showing me more and more, look up to heaven, open your eyes, talk to God. Put your hands up, talk to God. Talk to the Lord Jesus, talk to the Father. Don’t bow down, look at the dirt. Are you praying to the dirt? Don’t look at some silly altar. Are you praying to an altar?

Look up to God, look up to heaven. Thank God, praise him, that’s perfect kind of praying.

I’m out of strength. God bless you.

This is Doyle Davidson from his office in his home in Plano.

Good night.

A Visitation from God

On June 19, 2012 God sent me to Neosho, Missouri, the county seat of Newton County, where the Millers, my ancestors were buried and my mother was born and raised. I checked into a hotel and about 3:30 in the morning God visited me and talked to me about America for more than an hour. I will write more about what He said later. But as I prayed by the Spirit of God, weeping, I could not believe what I was asking; that the anointing of God be upon the states of the United States. God spoke to me and said, I have given to you and those that walk with you these states. The next morning He sent me to the cemetery at Diamond where my grandparents and great grandparents were buried. He had me take these pictures below.

The Heart of Josiah

Transcribed excerpt from:
Thursday November 27, 2014 Livestream Broadcast

I want to welcome everyone throughout the world to this Thanksgiving Day in the United States of America.

I have to my left Kathie Davidson who most certainly had ancestors on the Mayflower and I most certainly had ancestors at Plymouth, MA in 1621 and also, I’m 1/32nd Cherokee Indian plus, although we don’t know what the plus is but I certainly acknowledge it.

The first Thanksgiving was celebrated with people off the Mayflower and American Indians.

I’m English, American Indian, Scot and German, you could say I represent everybody. Anyway, I just want everyone to know, this is Thanksgiving in the United States of America and I’m pleased to be ministering this broadcast on this day. I thank God for this country. I thank God that he took the Kingdom of God from Israel and brought it to the United States in the 1600s, maybe before but certainly the 1600s in my ancestors, Kathie’s ancestors, David Kaspareit’s ancestors, Sadie Peters ancestors…so today is an interesting day to me…

In 1963 I came to Collin County, McKinney, Texas about fourteen miles north of where I’m setting, as a practicing veterinarian and in 1970 I was serving God in Texas and I grew in grace and faith, not knowing at all what God had planned for me.

In 1980 God sent me to Plano, directed me here to establish Water of Life Ministries of which I did, in obedience to God, January 4th, 1981, purchased this building, we’ve been in it ever since. I lived in Fairview, some ten miles north of where I’m at, at the moment. (I think it was ten the last time I rode my bicycle up there from here. I will be glad when I can ride it back.) We started this ministry and it expanded worldwide—shortwave, national television, international satellite, limited.

In 2004 I gave my house in Fairview, where I’d lived for twenty-seven years (one and one quarter acres, 2400 sq.ft., 3 bedroom, 2 baths) on Highway 5—I gave it away, no strings attached.

I came to Plano, not knowing where I was going to live. I arrived here July 1, 2004 and believe me, the persecution and the affliction that I met was beyond what I expected, but God sustained me. You can read about it on my website (“2004”), what I’ve endured, what I went through. I think we ought to turn to 2 Corinthians 7 where Paul writing to the Corinthians speaks of what took place in his life when he came into Macedonia.

1 Having therefore these promises, dearly beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

2 Receive us; we have wronged no man, we have corrupted no man, we have defrauded no man.

3 I speak not this to condemn you: for I have said before, that ye are in our hearts to die and live with you.

4 Great is my boldness of speech toward you, great is my glorying of you: I am filled with comfort, I am exceeding joyful in all our tribulation.

5 For, when we were come into Macedonia, our flesh had no rest, but we were troubled on every side; without were fightings, within were fears.

Notice that: “without were fightings, within were fears”. [Kathie: Correct.]

Since 2004 when I arrived here. [Kathie: And it says the flesh had no rest] Mine. [Kathie: Right, not only the soul, but the flesh had no rest.] That’s right.

And from 2004 up to now it’s been nothing but war, nothing but. Satan thought he could destroy me, destroy my ministry, destroy the purposes of God and many people agreed with him, but God held me up. Some ten years later, here I am, here I am; great pressure on my soul coming from principalities, powers, rulers of the darkness of this world, spiritual wickedness in high places, sin of God’s people; but I’ve not backed up, I will not. I know God; I’m comfortable in what I do. I am persuaded that what God has promised me, he is able to perform it. That’s what Paul wrote in Romans 4 about Abraham, “hope against hope,” Abraham believed God, “hope against hope.” Let’s go there. This program is not going the way I thought, but who cares, I obey God, I always do, I have for forty-four years and I’m eighty-two years of age, strong, nothing wrong with me, no sickness in my body because I obeyed the angel that led me to this place, God took sickness from the midst of me and became an adversary to my adversaries, thank God, and an enemy to my enemies. How can you fight with that?

Romans 4:

18 Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

19 And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:

20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

21 And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

I walk in the steps of faithful Abraham and have all these years. I will tell you my gospel which I preach was preached by me from Plano and other areas of America and those that have rejected my gospel which was preached by the Spirit of God with faith to everyone; this gospel that I preached will judge every person in the last days.

John 5:

22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

Did you get that? Jehovah, Almighty God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, I am, will not judge any man, committed it to Jesus, his Son, my brother, your brother if you serve him. But Jesus didn’t want any part of judging anybody. Look what he said in John 12:

46 I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

47 And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.

48 He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.

The same words that Jesus spoke on this earth, I also speak, and the words that I speak, I do not judge you, but those words will judge you, if you reject them, in the last days.

My gospel, the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. I have been persecuted greatly for preaching the truth, for preaching the gospel, obeying the Spirit of God, the Spirit of holiness. I believe it says in Romans 1:4, that Jesus was determined to be the Son of God by the Spirit of holiness raising him from the dead.

I am very pleased to be doing what I’m doing. God told me years ago, forty-one/two years [ago] that my ministry would deal with the spirit of Baal, Baal worshippers. I was beside myself to think that such could happen through me. I’ve never been a worker for Jesus, never will be; nor are you. It is the Father working through a crucified body on this earth, crucified with Christ, never the less you live, yet not I or you, but the life that I live in the flesh, I live by the faith of the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me. So it’s not me, it’s Christ the Apostle, it’s Christ the Prophet, it’s Christ the Teacher, it’s Christ in me, the hope of glory, that is ministered to you by the Spirit of God, the Father, Jehovah, ministering that power that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead. So I get no credit and don’t want any. I wouldn’t be fool enough to take any credit, not at all.

But God taught me back in the seventies about Baal worship, grove of Baal, altars of Baal and God said my ministry would deal with them in America, and then I’m sure now, all over the world. I was surprised that God would talk to a man that had never been to seminary, never studied Hebrew or Greek. I was surprised when I recognized that God had a ministry for me far above what I could have expected. Who am I? That’s the way I thought: “Who am I?”

I once said to the Father when he said I was a prophet:

“I’m not a prophet, my father wasn’t a prophet.”

He said “Well someone else said that before you.” 

Who am I to be setting here, declaring these words, who am I?

Oh? Who was that? Amos.

But back in the seventies, God was teaching me about a king; a king that was set up when he was eight years of age and God showed me about this man’s heart, this child’s heart. I was overwhelmed with what God was saying to me and my response was, “If this is you, you bring it to pass.”

One day I said to the Lord—he was telling me, “Fear not, fear not, fear not, fear not.” 

I said, “Well that’s great if that’s you telling me ‘Fear not’, how do I know it’s not the devil saying that to me?”

He said, “Fear not! That’s how you know, “Fear not!” That’s not much of an explanation, you know that?

Let’s go to 2 Chronicles 34: 

1 Josiah was eight years old when he began to reign, and he reigned in Jerusalem one and thirty years.

2 And he did that which was right in the sight of the Lord, and walked in the ways of David his father, and declined neither to the right hand, nor to the left.

Do you know those are the words God spoke to me in 1971 in a vision, “Don’t look to the right and don’t look to the left and don’t listen to any man or you’ll drown.”

3 For in the eighth year of his reign, while he was yet young, he began to seek after the God of David his father: and in the twelfth year he began to purge Judah and Jerusalem from the high places, and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images. 

4 And they brake down the altars of Baalim in his presence; and the images, that were on high above them, he cut down; and the groves, and the carved images, and the molten images, he brake in pieces, and made dust of them, and strowed it upon the graves of them that had sacrificed unto them. 

5 And he burnt the bones of the priests upon their altars, and cleansed Judah and Jerusalem. 

6 And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even unto Naphtali, with their mattocks round about. 

7 And when he had broken down the altars and the groves, and had beaten the graven images into powder, and cut down all the idols throughout all the land of Israel, he returned to Jerusalem. 

8 Now in the eighteenth year of his reign, when he had purged the land, and the house, he sent Shaphan the son of Azaliah, and Maaseiah the governor of the city, and Joah the son of Joahaz the recorder, to repair the house of the Lord his God. 

9 And when they came to Hilkiah the high priest, they delivered the money that was brought into the house of God, which the Levites that kept the doors had gathered of the hand of Manasseh and Ephraim, and of all the remnant of Israel, and of all Judah and Benjamin; and they returned to Jerusalem. 

10 And they put it in the hand of the workmen that had the oversight of the house of the Lord, and they gave it to the workmen that wrought in the house of the Lord, to repair and amend the house: 

11 Even to the artificers and builders gave they it, to buy hewn stone, and timber for couplings, and to floor the houses which the kings of Judah had destroyed. 

12 And the men did the work faithfully: and the overseers of them were Jahath and Obadiah, the Levites, of the sons of Merari; and Zechariah and Meshullam, of the sons of the Kohathites, to set it forward; and other of the Levites, all that could skill of instruments of musick. 

13 Also they were over the bearers of burdens, and were overseers of all that wrought the work in any manner of service: and of the Levites there were scribes, and officers, and porters. 

14 And when they brought out the money that was brought into the house of the Lord, Hilkiah the priest found a book of the law of the Lord given by Moses. 

15 And Hilkiah answered and said to Shaphan the scribe, I have found the book of the law in the house of the Lord. And Hilkiah delivered the book to Shaphan. 

16 And Shaphan carried the book to the king, and brought the king word back again, saying, All that was committed to thy servants, they do it. 

17 And they have gathered together the money that was found in the house of the Lord, and have delivered it into the hand of the overseers, and to the hand of the workmen. 

18 Then Shaphan the scribe told the king, saying, Hilkiah the priest hath given me a book. And Shaphan read it before the king. 

19 And it came to pass, when the king had heard the words of the law, that he rent his clothes. 

20 And the king commanded Hilkiah, and Ahikam the son of Shaphan, and Abdon the son of Micah, and Shaphan the scribe, and Asaiah a servant of the king's, saying, 

Who is the king we are talking about here? [Kathie: The king is Josiah] Ok, I wanted to make that plain. [Kathie: Yes, Josiah is the king, Hilkiah is the priest and Shaphan is a scribe.] Thank you.

21 Go, enquire of the Lord for me, and for them that are left in Israel and in Judah, concerning the words of the book that is found: for great is the wrath of the Lord that is poured out upon us, because our fathers have not kept the word of the Lord, to do after all that is written in this book. 

22 And Hilkiah, and they that the king had appointed, went to Huldah the prophetess, the wife of Shallum the son of Tikvath, the son of Hasrah, keeper of the wardrobe; (now she dwelt in Jerusalem in the college:) and they spake to her to that effect. 

Huldah? [Kathie: Yes, Huldah the prophetess] Ok.

23 And she answered them, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel, Tell ye the man that sent you to me, 

24 Thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon this place, and upon the inhabitants thereof, even all the curses that are written in the book which they have read before the king of Judah: 

25 Because they have forsaken me, and have burned incense unto other gods, that they might provoke me to anger with all the works of their hands; therefore my wrath shall be poured out upon this place, and shall not be quenched. 

26 And as for the king of Judah, who sent you to enquire of the Lord, so shall ye say unto him, Thus saith the Lord God of Israel concerning the words which thou hast heard; 

27 Because thine heart was tender, and thou didst humble thyself before God, when thou heardest his words against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, and humbledst thyself before me, and didst rend thy clothes, and weep before me; I have even heard thee also, saith the Lord. 

28 Behold, I will gather thee to thy fathers, and thou shalt be gathered to thy grave in peace, neither shall thine eyes see all the evil that I will bring upon this place, and upon the inhabitants of the same. So they brought the king word again. 

29 Then the king sent and gathered together all the elders of Judah and Jerusalem. 

30 And the king went up into the house of the Lord, and all the men of Judah, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and the priests, and the Levites, and all the people, great and small: and he read in their ears all the words of the book of the covenant that was found in the house of the Lord. 

31 And the king stood in his place, and made a covenant before the Lord, to walk after the Lord, and to keep his commandments, and his testimonies, and his statutes, with all his heart, and with all his soul, to perform the words of the covenant which are written in this book. 

32 And he caused all that were present in Jerusalem and Benjamin to stand to it. And the inhabitants of Jerusalem did according to the covenant of God, the God of their fathers. 

33 And Josiah took away all the abominations out of all the countries that pertained to the children of Israel, and made all that were present in Israel to serve, even to serve the Lord their God. And all his days they departed not from following the Lord, the God of their fathers.

In the 1970s when I was being dealt with by God, showing me King Josiah and showing me my own heart: Deuteronomy 8, and he had put me into the wilderness, led me there to prove me, to humble me, show me what was in my heart and show me whether I would keep his commandments or not and he was talking to me about my ministry; I was faced with a decision. I knew what God was saying to me about my heart.

I said, “I know you are talking to me about America, I know this. I know this is my country, I know that. I don’t want to come and be with you, I just don’t. I want to see what happens in America and the world.”

[Terre Brown ministered “God On The Mountain”.]

I want to make something very clear, I do not believe that the decision of my heart to want to stay here and see God’s dealings with America and the world, affected God in any way. I do believe that God brought me to that place to show me what was in my heart, and what my heart was like so no, my decision didn’t affect God. His eternal purposes were already established from the beginning from the beginning of the world, from the foundation of the world for me to do what I am doing this very day. I wanted to make that plain, because you can’t manipulate God.

The Power of the Kingdom

Prophecy - Doyle Davidson - May 6, 2015 11:00 AM Broadcast:

The Lord knows they that are his, he knows them all, he knows the numbers of their hair, he is with them to strengthen them, to hold them up, no weapon formed against them shall prosper, every tongue that rises up against them in judgment, they shall condemn it, in Jesus name. Their heritage is of the Lord, this is the heritage of the Lord and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord God, thank God, hallelujah, fear not little flock, it is God’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom; the Kingdom is power, the Kingdom is the power of God, the gospel of the Kingdom is power, press in, that Kingdom is right in front of you, keep pressing, saith the Lord, it is yours.

As I was speaking this prophecy on that Friday, May 6th, while I was speaking the very words, the kingdom of God - which is power - was rising up through me and began right then, immediately working changes. Since that day changes have occurred with my staff, with long-time attendees of Water of Life, God purging out the leaven of malice and wickedness. The power of the Kingdom is continuing to work through my ministry.

God bless,
Doyle Davidson
Servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ

Be Strong in the Lord and the Power of His Might!

See how many times through these past few years the Spirit of the Lord has exhorted his people to be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might and to fear not!

Interpretation of Tongue - Doyle Davidson - July 25, 2009

The Lord would say to you, gird up your loins and be bold. Be ready to face what’s coming upon the earth. My son warned you, it’s written in the bible of great troubles coming on the earth and men’s hearts would fail because of that. Men’s hearts would fail because of the troubles coming upon the earth. Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might and fear not what man can do to you. Not one hair will fall from your head. God will uphold you. God is talking to many here and all over the world, be strong. Be strong and fear not. No man will be able to withstand that by which you speak. No man will be able to withstand against it, just as Steven spoke, you will speak as well. Don’t be afraid.

Tongue and Interpretation - Kathy Mai and Doyle Davidson - Sept. 28, 2009

It is time to lengthen the cords of your tent. Quit being afraid, cease to be fearful. Stand up and be bold. Be bold in the Lord and in the power of his might for I have ordained your steps. Fear not. Don’t be afraid of what people think, they are going to think no matter what you do, so stand up and be bold. Don’t give peoples tongues an opportunity to stop you.

Tongue and Interpretation - Kathy Mai and Doyle Davidson - February 6, 2011

Fear not for the Lord is nigh them with a broken and contrite heart to lift you up. The Lord is for you, he is not against you. The Lord only opposes the prideful, but humble yourself and God will raise you up. God is high and lofty, but he himself dwells with them that are lowly in heart. The Lord desires that you walk with him and he will walk with you, he will be your Lord, he will lead you unto places that you never imagined you would go, the hour is here, the hour is here for my harvest saith the Lord, I am going to bring it in, I promised it in my word, in the days when wickedness reigned I promised that my Spirit would produce a great harvest, so don’t be dismayed, don’t be fearful, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might and you will see the salvation of the Lord. Amen.

Tongue and Interpretation - Kathy Mai and Doyle Davidson - September 3, 2014

Be strong in the Lord in the power of His might, the days ahead of you will require great strength to fulfill my purposes through you saith the Lord. Be strong in the Lord, the power of his might, fear not, no hair will fall from your head, you’ll be strong against those that oppose you, no man can stand, stand against you, no man will be able to stand up but they must bow at the name of Jesus for I’ve spoken it out of my mouth and it shall not return unto me void, but what I’ve said shall accomplish what I desire through you, it is you, humble yourself and walk and fear not, don’t be afraid of kings, don’t be afraid of rulers, don’t be afraid of any man as you’ve been warned, don’t look to the right, don’t look to the left but look unto Jesus the author and the finisher of your faith and you shall prevail in every situation that confronts you saith the Lord, [and I thank you.]

Prophecy – Doyle Davidson March 15, 2014

The Lord would say to you think it not strange the fiery trial that is going to try you for everyone of my servants will have their faith tried and perfected and the fiery trials is where the faith is really perfected to any degree or any depth so don’t think it strange if you’re in a great trial of affliction, if you are in great trouble, don’t think that strange, rejoice, throw up your hands and give God praise because the trying of your faith worketh patience and patience experience and experience hope and hope maketh not ashamed because the love of God is shed abroad in your heart by the Holy Ghost and this is the way that my gospel operates through my servants, saith the Lord. Now fear not, look to the left, no; look to the right, no, but look unto Jesus the author and the finisher of your faith and be bold and be strong for in due season you will reap if you faint not. Be bold, stand up, boldly speak my words, be strong in the Lord and the power of His might, do not pull back, do not fear. Have I not told you I will perform what I promised, you, amen, amen and my word shall not return unto me void but it shall accomplish the thing that I please so be strong in the Lord, power of His might, go forth proclaiming my gospel throughout the world saith the Lord. [Talking to me, amen]

Tongue/ Interpretation- Kathy Davidson and Doyle Davidson- June 28, 2015

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; humble yourself and the Lord will lift you up; look unto the hills, help cometh from the Lord. The Lord is your helper, the Lord has ordained your steps in his word, the Lord will perform every one of his words concerning you. Be strong in the Lord and the power of his might. Don’t let Satan speak to you anymore, just tell him that is a lie, rebuke him now, she is your wife.

Facing Death Head On

It is pretty well known how Doyle has fought off death numerous times in the past several years, actually since December 2010. This evening I was reading through some Tongues and Interpretations from previous years and came across these in 2009 where the Spirit of God was prophesying of the dark days that lay ahead for Doyle:

Tongue and Interpretation- Kathy Mai and Doyle Davidson - June 22, 2009

The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. Why do you want? Because you won’t let the Lord be your Shepherd. The Lord desires to be everyone’s Shepherd. He wants to lead you in the valley of the shadow of death, he wants to restore your soul. He wants to deliver you from all evil. He wants you to submit to him, obey him. He’s the true shepherd, the good shepherd, the shepherd of the flock. He will lead you in places you cannot imagine. He will bring you to places you did not know existed, if you’ll stand up and follow him, hear his voice, this day, saith the Lord. For I desire to lead you in a place you cannot imagine that I have prepared for everyone who will obey me. For I desire to see you achieve what I have prepared for you, saith the Lord.

Tongue and Interpretation- Kathy Mai and Doyle Davidson - August 9, 2009

The Spirit of the Lord is upon you to do you good. The Spirit of Life is greater than the Spirit of Death, fear not death. Be not afraid that you are going to die. You’re not going to die. Gird up your loins and believe this gospel. This gospel will minister strength to you. Fear not. Don’t let your flesh rule you. Let the man that’s inside of you, that was raised from the dead, rule you. Be bold. Yield your tongue and worship God, for my Son is in you to do you good.

This is similar to what happened to the apostle Paul in the book of Acts, chapter 21:

10 And as we tarried there many days, there came down from Judaea a certain prophet, named Agabus.

11 And when he was come unto us, he took Paul's girdle, and bound his own hands and feet, and said, Thus saith the Holy Ghost, So shall the Jews at Jerusalem bind the man that owneth this girdle, and shall deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.

12 And when we heard these things, both we, and they of that place, besought him not to go up to Jerusalem.

13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

14 And when he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, The will of the Lord be done.

Just as Paul willingly faced the difficult days ahead for him, wanting only the will of the Lord to be done, so is Doyle’s commitment to God’s will. Doyle faced death, fought it straight on and resisted dying; he walked through the valley of the shadow of death and the Lord has upheld his servant just as the Lord spoke in 2009!

God bless,

Forsake All And Be Part Of The Latter House

Mark 10:

17 And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.

20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.

21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.

22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!

25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?

27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.

29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,

30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.

31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

Haggai 2:

1 In the seventh month, in the one and twentieth day of the month, came the word of the Lord by the prophet Haggai, saying,

2 Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Josedech, the high priest, and to the residue of the people, saying,

3 Who is left among you that saw this house in her first glory? and how do ye see it now? is it not in your eyes in comparison of it as nothing?

4 Yet now be strong, O Zerubbabel, saith the Lord; and be strong, O Joshua, son of Josedech, the high priest; and be strong, all ye people of the land, saith the Lord, and work: for I am with you, saith the Lord of hosts:

5 According to the word that I covenanted with you when ye came out of Egypt, so my spirit remaineth among you: fear ye not.

6 For thus saith the Lord of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land;

7 And I will shake all nations, and the desire of all nations shall come: and I will fill this house with glory, saith the Lord of hosts.

8 The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the Lord of hosts.

9 The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former, saith the Lord of hosts: and in this place will I give peace, saith the Lord of hosts.

10 In the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, in the second year of Darius, came the word of the Lord by Haggai the prophet, saying,

11 Thus saith the Lord of hosts; Ask now the priests concerning the law, saying,

12 If one bear holy flesh in the skirt of his garment, and with his skirt do touch bread, or pottage, or wine, or oil, or any meat, shall it be holy? And the priests answered and said, No.

13 Then said Haggai, If one that is unclean by a dead body touch any of these, shall it be unclean? And the priests answered and said, It shall be unclean.

14 Then answered Haggai, and said, So is this people, and so is this nation before me, saith the Lord; and so is every work of their hands; and that which they offer there is unclean.

15 And now, I pray you, consider from this day and upward, from before a stone was laid upon a stone in the temple of the Lord:

16 Since those days were, when one came to an heap of twenty measures, there were but ten: when one came to the pressfat for to draw out fifty vessels out of the press, there were but twenty.

17 I smote you with blasting and with mildew and with hail in all the labours of your hands; yet ye turned not to me, saith the Lord.

18 Consider now from this day and upward, from the four and twentieth day of the ninth month, even from the day that the foundation of the Lord's temple was laid, consider it.

19 Is the seed yet in the barn? yea, as yet the vine, and the fig tree, and the pomegranate, and the olive tree, hath not brought forth: from this day will I bless you.

20 And again the word of the Lord came unto Haggai in the four and twentieth day of the month, saying,

21 Speak to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah, saying, I will shake the heavens and the earth;

22 And I will overthrow the throne of kingdoms, and I will destroy the strength of the kingdoms of the heathen; and I will overthrow the chariots, and those that ride in them; and the horses and their riders shall come down, every one by the sword of his brother.

23 In that day, saith the Lord of hosts, will I take thee, O Zerubbabel, my servant, the son of Shealtiel, saith the Lord, and will make thee as a signet: for I have chosen thee, saith the Lord of hosts.

God bless,

Interpretations of Tongues - June 18, 2014

Transcribed Excerpts from Live Stream Broadcast Wednesday 11:00 AM

1st Interpretation - Doyle Davidson (Tongue given by Kathy Mai)

"Fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, those that fear me will follow me, they will humble themselves and receive instruction, that instruction is pure and certain. You must obey my word, you must obey my Spirit, you must do the will of the Father, for the Father knows his purposes. Humble yourselves and submit to the will of God, in Jesus name, amen."

2nd Interpretation - Doyle Davidson (Tongue given by Kathy Mai)

"Little did I know the things that God had prepared for me, saith the Lord, but I’ve been preparing you all of your life, from the very day you were born, my preparation was working in you to become an apostle and prophet in these last days. Gird up your loins, be strong, don’t be afraid, no man can stand against you at any time, no one can resist what you do at any time, be strong in the Lord and the power of his might for I’ve made you a battle axe, I’ve made you a battle axe with a head of flint to stand up to the wicked and fear them not. Say the words that I give you, amen…thank God, I’ve instructed you in the past to look not to the right nor look to the left nor hear any man, but look unto me and you’ve obeyed me and done my will, done my will as I have commanded you, now you’re going to see things that you desire and they are going to come to pass and many will see and wonder and fear of what I can do through one person that I choose and send them forth saith the Lord."

3rd Interpretation - Doyle Davidson (Tongue given by Kathie Davidson)

"The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want, he has led you all the days of your life, he has trained you during hours of difficult times when the nations made fun of you, mocked you, accused you falsely but you never stopped obeying me, you never shunned to declare every word that I gave you. When it was revealed about Lisa whom I gave to you and all kinds of opposition and wicked things came up against you, you did not deny my call or my gift, you did not deny I gave her to you, amen, now I will restore her back into your life and you will praise me for all things that I’ve done for you and I, God, will be glorified."

God Sold My House

I thought you would like to hear this testimony.

God Bless,
Doyle Davidson
Servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ

Excerpt from:
A Life Lived Wholly Unto God (from Chapter: Return to the Land of Your Fathers)

“Doyle said when he first began walking with God he went from one end of the radio dial to the other, trying to find someone who knew anything about God. He went to seminars, read books, listened to tapes—looking for someone who taught the bible like it was written, all to no avail. But he never stopped studying and he had heard them say in a Full Gospel Businessmen’s meeting that God was a businessman and he knew what Psalm 100 said. He owned a house that he was trying to sell and came before the Father believing and expecting him to perform his word:

“I remember one time I fell on my face at 3:00 in the morning and said, ‘I'm on my face, Father, and I want to thank You and praise You and worship You.’ I did this for one hour and then I said, ‘I know I’m in your presence, because I came according to Psalm 100,’ which says, in verse 4:

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise… I continued,

‘I thanked You and entered into Your gates, and I praised You, so I'm in Your court. Now, I have some things to say to You.’

I owned a house that had been vacant for 18 months and that I had been unable to sell. I had heard people at Full Gospel Businessmen meetings say that God was a businessman. I said to God,

‘They tell me that You are a businessman, and I accept that, because they are Your servants. It doesn't seem like good business for me to pay interest on a loan and taxes on a house that has been vacant for 18 months. I would like to have my house sold now. Thank you. Good night.’

I went to bed, and the next morning at 9:00, my realtor called me and said, ‘I just sold your house.’

I said, ‘I'm not surprised.’

That is the way God moves, when you pray from 3:00 until 4:00 in the morning. You cannot simply pray for five minutes and expect God to answer.”

God Is Rich and He Supplies His Servant’s Needs

In January 1970 I sold my veterinary hospital and practice in obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ. I did not know where I was going or what I was to do. However, in May 1970 in Springfield, Missouri, setting on my couch praying, I asked the Lord, “Who do I get with and who do I follow?” I opened my bible to John 15 and started reading and received clear instructions from the Lord Jesus. I had a vision and you can read about that vision at the following link:

Fruit That Remains

Now, did God not give me some clear directions?

So since that day in May 1970, I have obeyed the word of God, being led by the Holy Spirit and today I have some fruit ministering with me: Kathie Davidson preaching the gospel, Terre Brown leading the dancers and ministering in song along with ten Water of life Singers, and a few staff members.

We now are on television in 50 states through World Harvest Television--DirecTV on Sunday mornings at 8:00 AM ET and Sunday afternoon at 1:00 PM ET, with a one hour program. We are on Livestream, Roku, Apple TV, YouTube and shortwave radio.

We are also on 10 local television stations with a one hour program, times varying.: KWHS TV 51 Colorado Springs, Colorado; KWHE TV 14 Honolulu, Hawaii; WHNW TV18 Gary, Indiana and Chicago Illinois; WHMB TV40 Indianapolis, Indiana; WHME TV 46 South Bend, Indiana; WHNO TV20 New Orleans, Louisiana; KODE 12 Joplin Missouri; KAZQ 32 Albuquerque, New Mexico; KEEN TV 17 Las Vegas, Nevada; and Tulsa, Oklahoma.

We also minister in Africa, through Living Water of Life International—Steddie Muserera and Bartholomew Manjoro—Faith World Church, Harare, Zimbabwe.

I never tell anyone what my needs are and I never ask anyone for money or anything else. I just obey the voice of the Lord, taking up my cross daily and following Him.

We are greatly blessed for obeying our Father, Jehovah. I always pay every invoice that I receive before we use product; that includes paying for television and radio time before the programs air. I have always paid every invoice for radio and television before they aired since my radio and television ministering began in 1981 and 1984 respectively.

I was called and anointed on June 16, 1974 at the Tomb of the Garden in Jerusalem. You can read about that trip to Israel at the following links:

Parable of the Sower

Mark 4:

1 And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

2 And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

3 Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

4 And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

5 And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

6 But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

7 And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

8 And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

9 And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

10 And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

13 And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

14 The sower soweth the word.

15 And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

16 And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

17 And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

18 And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

19 And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

Luke 8:

1 And it came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God: and the twelve were with him,

2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils,

3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

4 And when much people were gathered together, and were come to him out of every city, he spake by a parable:

5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.

6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.

7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.

8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?

10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.

11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.

13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.

14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.

15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.

God bless,

Anointed At The Garden Tomb June 16, 1974

Transcribed and edited excerpt from:
Sunday June 5, 2015 10:00 AM Livestream Broadcast

Hello, I’m Doyle Davidson, servant and apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ ministering locally to the Body of Christ in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas sent by God to your house to declare unto you the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

1 Corinthians 15 tells us what the gospel is, how that Jesus Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures, he was buried and he rose again the third day, according to the scripture.

The Spirit of the Lord is upon me because he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor, sent me to heal the brokenhearted, preach deliverance to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, set at liberty them that are bruised.

The word is nigh thee, even in your heart and in your mouth, that is the word of faith which I preach that if will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you shall be saved, for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone who believeth, to the Jew first and also to the Greek; therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, the just shall live by his faith.

I’m Doyle Davidson, president, founder, apostle, of Water of Life Ministries of Plano, Texas. In 1958, at age twenty-six [after] four years in the U.S. Navy ( I was a hospital corpsman) I had been accepted to enter the School of Veterinary Medicine, Class of ’62. The Spirit of God fell on me and said, “I do not want you to be a veterinarian, but a minister of the gospel.” I had never had God on me like that; I thought I had experienced some, but not much. I was raised in John Wesley Methodism, just what John Wesley taught, that’s where I went to church.

I went ahead and graduated, established my own practice, McKinney Texas, thirty miles north of downtown Dallas, Texas.

January 2nd, 1970 I had obeyed God, sold my veterinary practice and my hospital. I obeyed God, did what he said to do, not knowing where I was going.

In 1974 I was doing a practice on a small basis, just enough to make a living and I was at a Kenneth Copeland meeting in Fort Worth, Texas and God said, “Give $50 in this offering and I’ll send you to Israel.” I had no idea I would ever go to Israel. So, I gave $50 and in about three or four weeks I received a letter from someone I knew very well, Derek and Lydia Prince. I spent a year, in 1971 and 1972 in south Florida and I visited their home many times. They invited me, Patti and my daughter, (Pat’s in heaven and my daughter is Kathy), to go on the Family Tour to Israel in June 1974.

God supplied the down payment, that came quickly; but then I had to pay an extra $3000. They called me and said, “Are you going to Israel?”

I said, “Yes.”

“Have you got your money?”

“No.”

“What? You don’t have your money?”

“No.” “

But you’re going to Israel?”

“Yes.”

“Well, I’m going to have to put someone in your place.” They did. That night that man died. Next morning they called me and they said, “You going to Israel?”

“Yes.”

“You have your money?”

“No.”

“But you’re going?”

“Yes.”

“But you don’t have your money.”

“No.”

“Well, going to have to put someone else in your place.” That night one of the family members had emergency surgery. They called me the next day; they said, “Doyle, are you going to Israel?”

“Sure.”

“Do you have your money?”

“No.”

“Well I don’t think I’m gonna’ put anybody in your place.”

I’m thinking, “You’re getting the picture.”

That night someone called me. “They said, “You going to Israel?”

“Yes.” “You got your money?” and I always thought it was an interesting response: I said,

“How much do you have?”

They told me.

I said, “You want to give it to me?”

They said, “Yes.”

I said, “Let me add this.” I added it up and I said, “That’s enough, that’s enough.”

So, we got our tickets, our lodging, in Israel and we are off, the 8th day of June 1974. We had 133, one dollar bills; that was all I had, and Pat and Kathy. Sack lunches and the evening meal and lodging and 133 one dollar bills.

We fly to Israel and we get there, I think it was the 9th, I’m not sure exactly, but we landed in Tel Aviv and the next day we went north to Mount Carmel; then the Sea of Galilee. We spent several days there, wherever we were at, then we go to Jerusalem

. I’d never been to Israel; I did not have a desire to go; I did not know why I should go; I didn’t have a reason. But God had a plan.

So, on Sunday morning, at the Tomb of the Garden, June 16th, we went to church at the Tomb of the Garden in Jerusalem. There was a reverend speaking, Jan Willem van der Houven; I’d never heard of him. We were all setting there on the pine benches, under (whatever they were), some kind of trees. It was hot, the power of God came into my heart. I had never experienced anything like it. I did not hear one thing that Reverend van der Houven said. God was ministering to my heart.

I had been baptized in the Holy Spirit, spoke in other tongues. I had cast out some devils; I had prayed for people and they got healed. God was moving in my house. My wife, (whose in heaven, by the way), had had an upper-respiratory infection for several years, but we were driving in obedience to God, and God healed her, just like that, near Cabool, Missouri on U.S. 60. I just stopped and got out and went back to her car, it was just God. She said, “Doyle, the Lord just healed me.”

“How do you know?”

“Because everything’s gone.”

“Well, that’s fine, thank God.” God was with us.

But God was anointing me for a ministry at the Tomb of the Garden; not expected, had no idea that would come to pass. But Paul Peters will read the verse of scripture that was burning into my heart. I was just hot, hot, and the words in Acts 1:8 being spoken by the Spirit of God being spoken into my heart.

Paul Peters:

Acts 1:8:

“But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.”

That was an amazing day to me, that Sunday morning. I never told anyone one thing. I didn’t tell Derek Prince, or Lydia; I didn’t even tell Patti, my wife. I just kept it to myself; I’m that kind of a person.

An amazing thing happened in the afternoon. We were out in Jerusalem; I think there were forty-some of us, there might have been—I think there were fifty-some of us. (The tour I led later was forty-four.) We were out and Derek Prince caught up with me and he said, “Doyle, President Nixon is going to come right by this corner in a few minutes; let’s go over there.” We went, Pat, (I don’t know if Kathy Mai was there or not, she knows.), but Patti was and Derek and I and I believe Lydia was. We were standing right on the sidewalk, right by the curb. You could look up at the buildings and on top of them were sharpshooters, we were right in line I think, if they were going to take a shot. I’m sure that’s why not many people were there, but God placed us there. In a few minutes, a limo came: Henry Kissinger. I didn’t know him but I recognized him, had seen him on television. In a few more minutes, (two or three, something like that) another limo came: President Nixon, right by us.

Interesting thing, there was a great lot of talk about the President, about his problems with Watergate, amazing. The tour, the group I was with, they thought the press was not being fair. I said, “There’s something here; I don’t know what, but there’s something here, there’s too much fire.”

Well, that was June 16th and on August 9th, I think, President Nixon resigned President of the United States of America. I certainly believe the anointing that was on me went on President Nixon and convinced him that he should resign.

You see folks, I know I’m an apostle, I know I’m a prophet. I had not an easy time, to accept that, not an all, not an easy time to accept it. But in 1980, I did accept that I was a prophet and in 1985, an apostle.

But back to Israel, after Nixon and Kissinger driving by, I don’t recall just what we did. Monday, I don’t know, we went somewhere; but Tuesday evening, we were staying at the St. George Hotel in Jerusalem and Pat and I went into the dining room and looked around and it was full; but there sat Derek and Lydia. We knew them well and Derek stood up and said, “Doyle, would you and Patti like to set with us?”

“Sure.” We set down and within a minute or two, Derek said, “Would you like to speak for ten minutes in Christ Church tonight?”

“Yes, sure will.”

So I get up and excuse myself and go to my room. I said, “Alright Lord, now that I’ve opened my mouth and said yes, what do I say?” He told me, out of Joshua, “my house…my and my house, serve the Lord.” Now understand something folks, you may think I was a novice, but remember, I walked away from a very successful veterinary practice that I established: I brought in a veterinarian to work for me, I brought in a partner and actually gave him one-half of the practice. He was an excellent veterinarian, I knew him. Later he had to buy the place, God made him buy it.

You see, I have experience with God, success with God; not: I felt like I should do it. I never felt like I should do any of it. I was not anxious to be a preacher, quite the contrary; I resisted the thought of it. But God convinced me, “This is what I want you to do.”

“Fine.”

So, back to Jerusalem:

Tuesday night, 18th day of June, thank God, I speak at Christ’s Church at the request of Derek Prince. I had ten minutes and I knew what I should say. I read the scriptures in the book of Joshua, where Joshua said, “…me and my house, we’re going to serve the Lord.”

Paul, would you happen to have that? [Paul: Yes I do.] I thought so.

Joshua 24:

15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

This young man has become someone that serves with me as an apostle. He really has an ear and a heart to hear God and I do thank God for him. I think he just turned twenty-three? [Paul: Yes.] Goodness sakes, but when I was twenty-three, that was—nothing. But I appreciate him, I just knew in my spirit he had those verses of scripture, that was not pre-arranged. You see what God has put with me to walk with me since Terry Mai went to heaven after walking with me for nearly thirty years.

I read in Christ’s Church those very scriptures and afterward a man name Bill Subritzky, New Zealand, a builder, a lawyer, came up to me and said, “Doyle, I’m a lawyer.”

I said, “Yes.”

“I’ve presented a lot of cases to a judge, and before a jury and I’ve heard a lot presented, but I’ve never heard anybody present what you did—concise, short, understandable,” something to that effect, very complimentary.

I said, “Well thank you.”

It was a blessing, that trip to Israel; God anointed me. There is a lot more that I could say, a lot more. Oh, I’m going to, I am going to. Alright Lord.

Lydia Prince had become a very good friend of Patti and I. Derek would go out of town, not often and she’d stay in Ft. Lauderdale and we lived in Hollywood, [Florida]. She was on that trip to Israel. We knew her well.

We were at a store, we had been to Hebron and on our way back to Jerusalem and were in the store to shop and Lydia was sitting in a chair and she saw me and she said, “Doyle, come over here, come over here.”

I said, “Yes?”

She said, “Do you have something to say to me?”

I said, “Yes I do.”

“Well speak it.”

Derek moved up real close to her right. She was weaker and weaker and I kneeled down so she wouldn’t have to look up. I said, “You need to stop listening to your children, who are putting fear on you and keep your mind stayed on the Lord.”

Derek said, “That is not true.”

Lydia pushed his hand out of the way and said, “Derek that is true and you know it.”

That blessed me.

She said at another juncture, “God has done more with you in five years than any man in this earth,” and guess what man was standing right by her? Derek Prince. Lydia obeyed God; she didn’t care if you were friend or foe. She was one bold woman, a woman that I loved dearly.

One night in Florida, riding down U.S. 95, she’d asked Pat and I to drive her to Miami; we did and we were coming back to Fort Lauderdale and none of the three of us were talking. Lydia said, “You know what I like about you two?”

I said, “No, what?”

She said, “You don’t have to be entertained.”

I thought, “That’s what I like about you.”

I didn’t know God wanted that on this, but there’s more Lydia said to this man, to encourage him and his ministry and Patti and Kathy, our daughter.

Oh, we came home, back to Texas, and God has ordered my steps in his word prior to that trip and since that trip to Israel, anointed at the Tomb of the Garden, June 16, 1974.
