GOSPEL REVOLUTION
His Word
Right about that time, Michaels wife, Mavis, was driving their older son, six-year-old Matthew, to school. He was seated beside her in the front passenger seat, quietly listening to one of my CD sermons. Suddenly, Mavis felt her body whip forward as the sickening sound of metal smashing into metal ripped through the air. A speeding car had hurtled into the rear of their vehicle with such great force that the car flipped over and spun uncontrollably on the busy road. With her world literally turned upside down, Mavis held on to just one name and screamed it over and over again Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! When the car finally stilled, they climbed gingerly out of its smashed remainscompletely unharmed. Amid the wreckage and chaos of a terrible accident that involved two
more vehicles, Mavis and little Matthew stood by the side of the road, enveloped in the peace of their Savior. They had literally walked away from a potentially fatal accident without so much as a scratch! The passers-by who had rushed to their aid were amazed that they were miraculously unhurt. With my preaching about the Lords grace still blasting from the overturned vehicle in the background, Mavis instinctively began to testify to concerned strangers about the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord. Hallelujah, all glory to Jesus for His favor and protection over this family! Nothing could have prepared mother and child for those terrifying moments. And nothing could have been more powerful or timely in activating the Lords protection over the precious pair than the name of Jesus cried out in faith, as well as those powerful God-breathed words of protection spoken by Michael, who was in another part of the city and had no idea of what had just happened.
badbecause they have resigned themselves to their negative situation. My friend, God doesnt want you to suffer in silence or to put up with any sickness or lack. His will is for you to be healthy, prosperous and full of joy and peace. Thats why He gave you the power to change your circumstances, and that power lies in your mouth. As Gods child, you can speak positively into your negative situation and see it change for the better, just like how Michael and Mavis spoke in line with Gods promises and turned a potentially tragic accident into a glorious testimony of His goodness. So dont just believe Gods promises, speak them out too! Perhaps you are suffering a sickness that doctors say you have to be on long-term medication for and your hearts desire is to be healed. Or maybe you have a debt that you need to pay off. These are needs that God has taken care of through Jesus perfect work at the cross. So instead of talking about how bad the situation is, start speaking life into your situation. Say, Sickness, be plucked out by your roots and be gone from my body in Jesus name! By Jesus stripes I am healed! Instead of worrying about your debt, say, I call my debt supernaturally cancelled in Jesus name. My God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory! If you want to see good days, then keep your tongue from speaking unbelief, and release the power and life of the Lord through your mouth into your situation! Now, Im not talking about suppressing our feelings or pretending that sicknesses dont exist. But God wants us to walk by faith and not by sight. Stating the obvious doesnt change anything and will only make us more fearful. Speaking the good that we want to see, on the other hand, gives us hope, builds faith and changes things for the better as Gods power is released. In the creation account in the Book of Genesis, God created good things by speaking. For example, He said, Light be, and light was. (Genesis 1:3) God saw the darkness, but He called forth what He wanted to see. Similarly, if you want to start seeing good things happen in your life, start speaking and declaring the promises in Gods Word! You see, to lay hold of all that God is freely supplying to you, to have Him save you from whatever you need saving from, you need to operate the way He does open your mouth and speak what you believe about His Word. Romans 10:10 says that with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Salvation from eternal death, destruction, sickness, poverty and depression comes when you say what God says about your situation.

Morning miracle: Mavis and Matthew were unharmed throughout the potentially fatal accident.

My friend, if you want to see the power of God come into your circumstances, you need to realise that its not what the doctor, your friends or even your enemies say about you that matters. Its what you say about your circumstances, your future and your life that matters. Life and death is in the power of your tongue, so say what the powerful, life-producing Word of God says about you, your future and your life!
My friend, dont give up. Be persistent. Let me share a personal testimony with you to encourage you. I used to have this rather huge mole on the left side of my neck. It was there for a number of years, but it didnt really bother me until I started wearing shirts where the stiff collar would rub against it. So I finally decided to speak to this mountain. You could say that I was making a mountain out of a molehill! I went to the mirror, looked at it and said, I curse you to your roots in Jesus name. Wither, dry up and fall off! Nothing happened. The next day, I looked in the mirror and it was still there. For the next few months, whenever I was conscious of the mole, I would just curse itI curse you to your roots. Wither, dry up and be removed in Jesus name. Then one day, as I was talking to my wife, I was prompted by the Holy Spirit to look for the mole. I went to the mirror, looked at my neck and discovered that the mole was not there anymore! While it didnt happen overnight, within a week or within a month, it eventually happened. And it happened because I finally decided to take authority over it and keep speaking to it. So dont give up, my friend. Keep speaking to your mountain, believing that what you say will indeed happen. You may not see immediate or obvious changes, but keep at it. One day, you will realise that it isnt there to bother you anymore!
Saying Amen to blessings spoken over you is declaring by faith that they will come to pass in your life.
on? She replied, No dieting, no exercising. I just spoke to my bodyBody, you are slimming down. Every time she looked in the mirror, she would say, I see you slim. Isnt that amazing? She only had to speak to see the result she wanted! (Now, if your doctor has prescribed you medication or a special diet or exercise regime, please adhere to it. Nevertheless, you can still release your faith by simply speaking to your body.) So theres no need to do a hundred other things and get all worn out. Just believe and speak. If you have a problem with your heart, say, Heart, I call you strong and robust, every artery be clear and healthy in Jesus name! Your whole being will respond to that. Not only that, because you are commanding in Jesus name, you are also speaking to the High Priest of your confession. He is listening and will bring to pass what you confess to Him in faith.
declared during the Holy Communion and when I bless the congregation. For example, when the leader who is ministering the Holy Communion says, By Jesus stripes you are healed. With long life, you will be satisfied. Your eyes will not grow dim nor will your natural force be abated, he would say, Amen! which essentially means, so be it in my life. At the end of the service, when I stretch forth my hands and say, The Lord bless you and keep you throughout this week. The Lord preserve you from sickness, from accidents and from all manner of evil. The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you. The Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace, he would say, Amen! Lord, I receive it! My friend, never underestimate the power of saying, Amen! when you hear blessings pronounced over you. Saying Amen to blessings spoken over you is speaking out your agreement with what has been pronounced and declaring by faith that they will come to pass in your life. So the next time you hear someone pronounce a blessing over you, especially in church when you are under a corporate anointing, say, AMEN! emphatically and expect to experience that blessing through this simple act of faith! I just love to bless the people at the end of each service. It is such an honour and privilege to speak good things into the precious lives of Gods people. And you too can release the blessings of God into the lives of your loved ones by speaking Gods Word and His blessings over them. Every single week, around the world, Jewish fathers pronounce blessings over their children on the Sabbath. To his sons, a Jewish father would say, May God make you as Ephraim and Manasseh may you be most fruitful! And to his daughters, he would say, May God make you as Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel and Leahthe mothers of Israel, fruitful and blessed with the favor of God. And then he would go on to bless all his children with the Aaronic blessing. Not surprisingly, many Jewish children grow up to become movers, shakers and winners in the fight of life. So I encourage you to bless your children every night before they go to sleep or every morning before they leave for school (I love to bless my daughter Jessica every chance I get!) As a king-priest in Christ Jesus, your faith-filled words carry power that can build them up and cause them to walk in Gods protection, provision and prosperity. So before your teenager steps out of the house, say something encouraging like, Son, you are blessed coming in and
AMEN TO THAT!
Let me share with you a simple yet powerful secret about what you can say to see the blessings of God manifest in your life. Take the area of health and protection from diseases, for example. I have a key church leader who is in his fifties today and in the pink of health. He is one person I know who is just not worried about his health. Once, when we were eating together, he accidently dropped some food onto the floor. What he did next surprised me. He just picked up the food and popped it into his mouth like it was the most natural thing to do! Unlike most people I know who would be worried that that morsel of food was now contaminated, he wasnt bothered about it harming his health in any way. When I asked him what the key to his good health was, he said, Pastor Prince, its very simple. I take two things VERY seriously in church on Sundaysthe Holy Communion and the blessing you pronounce over the people at the end of each service. For those of you not familiar with New Creation Churchs services, it is our practice to partake of the Lords Supper every Sunday. We have a powerful time of communion with the Lord as we remember and receive all that He has done for us at the cross. Also, at the end of each service, I pronounce the Aaronic blessing over the people before I dismiss them. So this key leader in my church would receive wholeheartedly with an affirmative Amen! all that is

Keep believing and speaking. Good days are coming your way!
going out. No harm shall befall you. God will put you at the right place at the right time and His angels will watch over you. You will have favor with your friends and all whom you meet in Jesus name. Your words of faith are powerful vehicles that carry Gods grace and mercy, and affect your childrens future positively!
If you need healing, you can say: Sickness and pain, I command you in the name of Jesus to be plucked out by your roots and cast out of my body. By Jesus stripes I am healed. I will live and not die, and proclaim the goodness of God! If you need provision, you can say: The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He took my poverty at the cross and gave me His prosperity. He supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory! If you have children, you can speak this blessing over them: The Lord bless you and the Lord keep you. The Lord make His face shine upon you and give you peace. No evil, no harm shall befall you and no weapon formed against you shall prosper. May you grow in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and with man.
Beloved, as you begin to release your faith and speak in line with Gods promises, expect the mountains in your life to be removed. Expect to walk in divine health, prosperity and protection. In the days and weeks to come, I am confident that you and your loved ones will experience an increase of Gods favor, rest and fruitfulness! So keep believing and speaking. Good days are coming your way!

HEALED AND RESTORED BY JESUS FINISHED WORK
I was very discouraged even though I was doing much in the church as a minister. My 18-year-old daughter left home. She said that she hated me and had no respect for me because I help people who do not like me. I did not know where she was and I was heartbroken. From October to December 2010, I started hemorrhaging, at which time, the doctor did a D&C and put me on birth control pills to try and stop the bleeding.
gospel now to others who are broken-hearted and give them the hope that you have given me because of your obedience and faithfulness to teach the truth of the Word of God and expound on His Son, Jesus. Thank you for your faithfulness to the Lord. Your ministry is what God used to bring hope to me at a time when I was discouraged and about to believe that the Lord had forgotten me. I bless His holy name! Many blessings to you and your ministry. Julie Tumblin | Texas, US
Report
One day, the Lord led me to listen to Pastor Prince and he was preaching about Jesus finished work at Calvary. He was teaching that it wasnt about my works, but was about what Christ had done for me and how my faith has to be in His finished work at Calvary, not my works. You see, I was doing much and I forgot to remember this: Not my efforts, but what He had done. I purchased the series on the Holy Communion. I started to listen to the wisdom of partaking of the Holy Communion and the purpose of the bread and the wine. I then began to take Communion, discerning the difference between the elements. Praise the Lord, my body is now healed. I am no longer bleeding or taking any medication. I have also stopped having trouble with high blood pressure. My daughter and I have been talking and she is coming home to visitGod is restoring our relationship. So much is happening. It is better to be at peace than to be right. That is what you said, Pastor Prince, and now I have peace. I am taking Communion daily with my husband and my children. God is restoring our relationships to what He always intended them to be. I am able to preach the
after reading Health And Wholeness Through The Holy Communion. Previously, I had symptoms of a urinary tract infection. As I partook of the covenant meal, I believed that God had already healed me and within two weeks, all the symptoms were gone. I was also unemployed at the time, and it was close to the time to pay my rent. The Lord said that He wanted me to trust Him and Him aloneno borrowing or telling anyone about my situation. So I asked the Lord for strength to do this, and He gave me so much peace. My rent was not only paid in full and on time, but there was even some money left over for school supplies. Thank God for Pastor Prince and the courage to teach the gospel of grace, despite what others say. The last thing I want to share is that when I started listening to the grace message, my daughters were very concerned that I was being led astray. But God told me that this was His message and that His message is true. Now, they are all listening to Pastor Princes messages with me and enjoying his books Destined To Reign and Unmerited Favor. We have also found a new church that teaches the message of grace. Thank you, Pastor Prince. Gods grace and peace to you. Ester Wadley | Georgia, USA

Now, Dustin goes to work every day and no longer pretends injury or illness to come home. He spends time with his children instead of lying in bed. His threats of suicide have vanished and he walks with his head up. He speaks the Word instead of words of fear and depression. He is on a more even keel, no longer bouncing from mountain top to valley in an endless cycle that keeps everyone walking on eggshells. He has stopped calling my daughter names and is actually helping her with the children and the house so she can get her school work done (she goes to school online to get a BA degree in business). He is taking responsibility for his choices and how they affect his family. Thank you for trusting the unimagined majesty of grace and daring to let it out into the world. Gods redeeming gracehow can any of us truly fathom its depth and healing power! Rajhon Dodd | Texas, USA
felt that she had to know I loved God and that I was going to submit to Him. That, she said, was the main reason she married me some 22 years ago. She wanted a separation for a period of time so that I could work out my direction with God and have no distractions. Well, to make a long story short, your teachings (on laboring to enter Gods rest and meditating to release the power of Gods Word) helped to get me back on track and repaired the rift in my marriage. God did a quick work in a very short period of time about three to four weeks. I would never want to do anything to lose my wife. I now understand more than ever that she is a gift from God. My wife and I are again becoming best friends. We have opened up the lines of communication. I am falling in love again. This was confirmed again in a teaching where you spoke briefly about being led by the Holy Spirithow the Holy Spirit would cause you to fall in love with your spouse all over again. Pastor Prince, I just wanted to thank you for your hunger and love for Gods Word, and for helping us to understand the relationship between the work on the cross and Gods love for us under grace. Larry Williams | New York, USA
time in my 38 years of Christianity. I never knew it was possible to have what I now have. I have grown more in my love and relationship with the Lord in the last several months than I have in the past several decades! We have been so blessed by the message of Gods grace through your ministry. Our hunger and thirst for the Word has never been this great. I used to get condemned and discouraged by Gods Word because I didnt receive it with grace. For years, Ive lived believing that the Word of God condemned me. We have taken verses off your website and have made cards out of them and pasted them throughout our house. We are now confessing and speaking the Word of God daily over ourselves. God is so good. We thank you for being an instrument of Gods grace in our lives. Hallelujah! I now go to bed each night with my head on Jesus chest and His arms around me. I never knew I could be so close or so loved by our precious Lord. He blows me away! I now feel richer and more blessed than ever in my entire life! God bless you and your congregation richly. Amen.
