Thanksgiving Unlocks Miracles 0:15 Welcome to Today with Marilyn and Sarah. We are so very, very happy to have you joining us, and really settling in to sense God, feel God investing in you, pouring into0:27 you, and encouraging your soul. And here's a testimony just to kinda boost your faith immediately is from Sheila. And Sheila called and and really, it's a very powerful testimony because she was0:39 healed of stage 4 pancreatic cancer. She was healed of a liver tumor, and she was healed of ovarian cancer. Oh my goodness.0:51 I mean, I think about all those all of those maladies, sicknesses, illnesses, and that's the holy buckets. That's a lot. But I share that testimony with you to encourage your faith, strengthen you,1:03 then nothing is impossible with god. All things are possible. And so, like, Sheila, why don't you pick up the phone? Why don't you get on the website? Give us the opportunity, the privilege to pray for you. Whether it's1:15 a physical healing, a financial healing, any of that, we love to pray and we know that God answers prayer. And partners, thank you. Thank you for helping us to cover the earth and connect everyone to the heart of1:27 God. So important because really, God wants to be very personal with each and every individual and partners you help us to do that and to bring God's love, God's word, God's1:38 transformation around the world. So thank you again and again. And in just a moment here, we're gonna be joining a teaching, a classic teaching that my mom has done. 1 of the things I love about her classic teaching is1:50 regardless of when she taught it, it's very very powerful because it is the word of God. And this particular teaching is thanksgiving unlocks miracles. And so when you watch this2:02 classic teaching, it is literally a classic from my mom. Back in the day, whenever, but it's relevant because the word of God is relevant no matter when you hear it, when it's done, it is relevant to you2:14 today.2:16 The teaching you are about to watch is part of the Marilyn Hickey Classic Collection. We believe the word of God is timeless, eternal, and cannot return void. Our prayer is that this teaching2:28 will build your faith and bless your life as you grow in his word.2:36 You know, I just love the way the Holy Ghost orchestrates a service. Now, Chris did not know what I was gonna preach about. He just said to me on the front row, you know, I feel like God has given me a prophecy2:48 and he said, but, you know, I'm afraid to give it. I said I said, well, what if you missed it? Would it be so bad? I think God is more pleased if we try than if we don't try, don't you? And so, you know, I3:00 said, do it. But I didn't know what he was gonna give, and he didn't know what I was gonna preach on. And tonight, I'm preaching on a word, and you'll see how the Holy Ghost moved in this service and put this3:12 together and orchestrate it. But I'm preaching on a word that is the key word to open the miraculous in every area of your life. If you've got a mean mate, this is the3:24 word to change him. If you've got children that you just think sometimes, God, how did I ever become a parent? If you have a financial situation that is just a mountain when you look3:36 at it, it looks so impossible and like such despair. If you have a physical problem that they have told you you won't recover from and you're gonna die, this word will bring you through. You know, if3:48 you have depression, if you're in some kind of bondage and it just looks like, how could I ever get through? This word will bring you through. You know, have you ever said, where is God when I'm in a crisis?4:00 Well, this word will bring you through to God in the crisis. You know, we say, well, where is God when I'm in this terrible time? This word will bring you through. Now, what could that word be? What do you think the word4:11 could be? Faith? That's not the word. That's a good word. Praise? That's not the word. Ruth? What do you4:22 think the word is? What? Love? Not the word. You're not getting this, so I'll just have to preach it. Alright. This4:34 is the word, thanksgiving. Now, the Bible says, you enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise. Psalms 1004:46 verse 4. So, to even get in, you gotta come with what? Thanksgiving. You say, well, I don't know that that unlocks everything. You will see that Jesus use this word. This is the most powerful word4:58 that Jesus used when he was upon the earth. And if it's good enough for Jesus and it will unlock the miraculous for him, it will unlock the miraculous for you and me. When I began to see this, you know, and I've, of5:10 course, you know, you study the Bible, you know, you're supposed to give thanks in all things, make your request with thanksgiving, but I saw some new things I'd never seen. It was just a tremendous revelation to me5:20 about giving thanks. And so when you look at it, you will see it opens the pathway for you to come into God, but it also unlocks the supernatural power of God. So when you enter5:32 into Thanksgiving, you you cannot come in to his gates without Thanksgiving. You know, when they of course, they're thinking of tabernacle here in Psalms 100, but when they thought of the tabernacle, there's only 15:44 door to the tabernacle and that was the east door. So if they wanted to come into God's presence, they couldn't make a door, they couldn't take a shortcut, there was 1 door only. And, when they came to go through that5:55 door they had to walk through the tribe of Judah, because Judah camped by the eastern door. And so, they had to come through praise, so some way they had to get it, you're not gonna get6:07 into God's presence if you don't give thanksgiving, but you're not gonna get the miraculous if you don't either. Then there's something else I noticed that unthankfulness leads to 3 things6:19 and this is the negative side of it. It leads to spiritual degradation, it leads to murmuring, and it leads to a negative attitude that poisons your soul. So, the6:31 opposite side of this is really really bad, but the positive side is just powerful. Now let let's just think about this for a moment. The word in Spanish, what does it mean?6:43 Thank you. Alright. But do you know what is? It comes from the word grace. So put your hand on your hearts, hell won't forget. Gracias comes6:55 from the word grace. So when you give thanks, what are you entering into? Grace. Okay? Gracias is Italian. In Italian the7:06 base of this word is grace. In French the base of is grace. In Greek the base of that word is grace. So, if7:18 we look at Hebrews 12 28 and you can just write this scripture down. It says, Wherefore we receive a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace whereby we may serve God acceptably with7:30 reverence and Godly fear. Grace here is thanksgiving. So, we have received the kingdom which can't be moved, let us have thanksgiving. Because when you enter into thanksgiving, you enter into7:42 grace. When you enter into grace, you enter into the supernatural power of God. Without thanksgiving, you cannot enter into the supernatural. So we go around and we say, oh, my7:54 husband's so mean, my wife is so ugly, you know. We say, you know, you're the reason my children are ugly. We go around with all kinds of things. You know, there's no queen in my king-size8:06 bed. You know, these are some songs, titles of songs if you can imagine. I think, who made these up? They're just terrible. You know, I would take you to a dog fight but you're sure to8:17 win. That's the name of a song. And so people say things like this and wonder, why aren't things better? Because, you know, those kind of words don't bring you into grace. And if you don't get8:29 into grace, you're not gonna get into the supernatural. So we begin to see here that God is very concerned about thanksgiving. Now this is taken from Colossians 3 verses 15 through8:41 17. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts to the which also you are called in 1 body and be ye thankful. Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom,8:53 teaching and admonishing 1 another in Psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord. Whatever you do, you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks9:05 to God and the father by him. Now folks, it says let the peace of God rule in your heart to the which you are called in 1 body and be thankful. God didn't say, you know, I'd like for you to be thankful, he commanded you9:16 to be thankful. And the reason many times we don't have peace and we're distressed and we're vexed is we're not giving thanks. So we're not living in grace, we're not living in the supernatural. And I have noticed before9:27 we get into some real big things that we're gonna do, I'll wake up in the night and I feel like I'm gonna have a panic party, you know. And you think, dear God, why did I think we ought to do this? Did9:39 you really tell me to do this? This probably isn't you, and we are gonna totally crash when we do it. Or I'm gonna go to Pakistan and for sure some Muslim's gonna kill me. You know? And so your mind begins to go through9:50 these things, and then you start rehearsing all these things, and I have found the way to come out of it. Just say, okay. I'm just gonna start thanking God. And you lay there on your bed and you say, God, I thank you for10:00 Wally. I thank you for Sarah, Reese, for Michael. I thank you have breath. I thank you have such good health. I thank you for the wonderful church that we have. And you start thanking him and you know what? You'll go to10:10 sleep. Why? Because you've entered into peace. Because when you start giving thanksgiving, you get into peace, you're into grace. And so, you're into the place where God can do something very powerful in the10:22 situation because thanksgiving opens miraculous power. Now, think about your children, when you do something nice for your children and they don't thank you, does that provoke you?10:34 You know, Michael called me the other day about something and he was asking me for something and I said, did you get your birthday gift? Well, yeah, I sure did. I said, well, it'd be wonderful if you said, thank you.10:47 Do you ever feel like that with your kids? Be just really nice if you said, thank you. He said, oh mother, please forgive me. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. I said, say it 10 times, I'll feel better. But you know, we10:59 like that and when our children thank us, isn't it true we wanna do more for them? And we're just natural parents, what does it do to a heavenly father? Now, let me tell you something else, people talk about, I wanna be11:11 full of the Holy Ghost, I wanna stay drunk on the Spirit, but 1 of the signs of being drunk on the Holy Ghost is that you're thankful. And it says in Ephesians 5 18, be not drunk with wine wherein is excess, but be11:22 filled with the Spirit. And it says, in giving thanks. When you're filled with the Holy Spirit, you give thanks. And you know, I can kinda tell how full of the Holy Ghost I am by how thankful I am. Because11:34 I notice I'm murmuring and complaining, I'm not really very drunk on the spirit. And God wants us to be drunk on the Holy Ghost, is that true? And being 1 of the signs is that you're thankful.11:46 And so as as we stay thankful, I believe we stay full of the spirit. If you stay full of the spirit, you're gonna stay full of the anointing. You stay full of the anointing, you're gonna stay full of the supernatural.11:58 When we bought this building, I had some real negative attitudes and some real murmuring because it looked too big. And instead of looking to such a big god, I looked at such a big12:10 building and the big amount of money it would take to do it with.12:14 God's word is always relevant.

And I know that is absolutely changing your life because the word doesn't return void.14:01 And so I would go through this thing, it it was just terrible. So 1 day, I was walking through this building, we didn't have our sanctuary or anything yet, and I just begin to thank God for the building. I said, God, I14:12 just thank you for the building. I thank you such a pretty building. Look at these nice looking bricks, it's just so attractive. And the Lord was so sweet to me and just began to encourage me about the building and then14:21 he said, why don't you thank me for your staff? He said, these bricks will decay but I've given you wonderful living stones. You know, and he just began to get me into an area of the supernatural14:33 because I began to thank him and enter into an area where he could open up his grace and do wonderful things. Jim Caswell, who is here tonight, he shared with me, 1 day he said that when he first got saved now14:45 Jim, I hope I tell this story like you told it to me, so you can stand and correct me if I don't. He said, when he first got saved, he had a job where his employer just cursed all the time, which is vile speaking.14:57 Just always on him on him on him and he knew that Jim was a Christian, so you know, he'd tell filthy stories and so on. So he called him in 1 day and gave him the worst report that he could15:09 give him for his review, you know, as 1 of his employees. Said it was just terrible. And so he said, God, why do you leave me here? You know this man hates Christians. You know he talks15:21 vile. People here swear. This is a terrible place to leave, to work and I'm a Christian, I belong to you. Why don't you take me out of here? And God said, until you thank me for this job, I'm not gonna give you anything15:31 better. Am I right, Jim? And then he said, I just start saying, thank you God for this job. Thank you for this employer. Now watch it. Watch it. When you enter into Thanksgiving, what are you15:43 entering into? You're entering into what? Grace. When you get into grace, what are you getting into? Come on. What are you getting into? Supernatural. He was getting supernatural and he said his boss called him in, it15:55 wasn't very long, gave him a raise, gave him another raise. He said, I went to the top position you could go to in that company before God put me in a new position. Hallelujah. Thanksgiving is so powerful, it is16:06 so wonderful, and it so works in our lives. Now Paul used it a whole lot, he said, I thank God for his grace, and Paul certainly had the grace to live the life that he had.16:18 First Corinthians 14 18, he said, I thank God that I speak in tongues. And I believe he got a double portion in his speaking in tongues because he thanked God that he could. Did you ever think of that? To thank God you16:29 could speak in tongues? You know, you're getting a lot speaking in tongues, but could you get double portion by thanking him before you did it? Paul did it. He sure had more than double portion. The Bible says, giving16:40 thanks as you make your prayer request. You know, when we thank him as we are praying, what happens? He says, be careful for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your16:52 request be made known unto God. This Philippians 4 6. If I thank God for answering my prayers, could it be I have now put my prayer into a supernatural place? Could it be that that prayer now17:04 is in the grace of God and God is gonna bring the miraculous? Could it be? And I have noticed giving God thanks will jerk me out of a murmuring, whiny, pity party faster than anything I can think17:16 of. You know, we're sitting sometimes, I remember 1 time we were in Dallas, The plane is on the ground, but they won't let us off. And I'm due to speak at this meeting. And now I'm 30 minutes late17:28 and we're just seated there and they won't let anybody off the plane. They won't tell you what's wrong. I'm telling you I'm about to jump out of my skin. I thought, you know, I could have 2 nervous breakdowns here. This17:38 is just so terrible. And then I just began to think, well, you can have a nervous breakdown or you could get in the supernatural. And so I just begin to thank God and thank God and thank God for what he was doing. I just17:49 said, thank you, Lord. I'm sitting out here in this plane. I'm not gonna call it a stupid plane, and I don't even know why I'm here. I just thank you. God, I just gonna thank you because I have breath, life, that you17:59 call me in the ministry, and I just and we're gonna praise you and thank you. And you know when I got there, they were late starting. I got there just on time because they had had some kind of a thing that went on. I had18:11 that happen 1 time in Canada too. We landed because the plane could not land in Buffalo and and so we had to land in Rochester and had to get on a bus to come back to Buffalo, I had to go from Buffalo to Niagara18:22 Falls. You know how late I'm gonna be, the meeting is gonna be over. And it was a big luncheon and they had like 1000 women coming to it, it was something with a glow. And you know, I'm just ready18:34 again, I just started to travel jump out of my skin, but I remember driving on that bus from Rochester to Buffalo, thanking God and thanking God and thank you Lord, I'm gonna make it, thank you I'm gonna be18:46 anointed, thank you I'm on time. And the man across from me said, well, what are you doing? You know, I said, well, I'm gonna speak in Niagara Falls. He said, well, lady you'll never make it today. They'll be gone. I18:56 said, I will make it and I will be on time. And the devil said, you are a liar. You say the stupidest things, you're lying again. And I just kept thanking God and, you know, by the time I got there, they said, well, the19:06 hotel had an accident and couldn't serve our lunch for an hour and a half and said, and you're just on time. Well, I'm not happy for the accident, but I'm gonna tell you, Thanksgiving puts you in the supernatural19:18 and it unlocks things now. I want you to look at the difference of the lepers. So I'd really like for you to open your Bible so that you can read this, then I'm gonna show you how Jesus19:30 used Thanksgiving and how powerful it was for him. So, open your Bible to Luke 17, look at verses 11 through 13. This, I never saw this until recently and19:42 it's just powerful truth to me, just so encouraged me about my life. You know, we say, well, where is God when the crisis is on? God is in your Thanksgiving. Our God is not in it because you're not giving Thanksgiving.19:54 It is that simple that that word can do it. Look at Luke 17 verse 11, and it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. And20:06 as he entered into a certain village, there met him 10 men that were lepers which stood afar off. And they lifted up their voices and said, Jesus, master, have mercy on us.20:18 All 10 were cleansed physically, if you remember. All of them. All the lepers were cleansed. All of them were healed. But in verses 15 through 19, and 1 of20:30 them when he saw that he was healed, turned back and with a loud voice glorified God, fell down on his face at his feet giving him thanks and he was a Samaritan.20:42 And Jesus answering said, were there not 10 cleansed? But where are the 9? There are not found they are not found here, return to give glory to God, just this 1 stranger.20:54 And he said unto him, arise, go your way, your faith has made you whole. Everybody say it. Now there are 10 lepers, but only 1 was made whole.21:06 You say, well, what do you mean whole? Now, this is exactly what it means. Whole means spirit, soul, and body. So that means this leper, he is going to heaven. This leper has a new self21:18 image. This leper has his financial needs met. This leper is physically healed. Why? Because he came back and did what he gave thanks. The other 9, they went away with no leprosy, but they21:30 weren't saved. They would not go into the kingdom. But this 1 came back and got into thanksgiving and it made him whole. What will thanksgiving do in your life? It will make you what? Whole. Because it puts you into the21:41 grace of God, and when you get into the grace of God, you get into the what? Supernatural. It is the way into the miracle working power of God. And so we look at him and say, wow, that is so21:53 powerful. But let's look at Jesus because, you know, you can come up with a lot of excuses. Well, you don't know how tough my situation is. You don't know how hard it is for me. You don't know what I'm going through,22:04 Meryl. You never gone through anything like I have gone through. But let's just look at Jesus. If this will work for Jesus, will it work for you? And and so don't come up with all your excuses, just put your22:16 excuses down and go for it. Okay? And let's just see what happened to him. Now this is John 6 verses 11 and 12, and this is when he22:27 has all of these people that have come to hear him, 5000 men, not counting women and children, and there's no food, they're out in the wilderness, and he's asking the disciples what they should do. And so 122:39 of the disciples said, well, there's a little boy here, he's brought a lunch, and Jesus takes the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed to the disciples and the22:51 disciples to them that were sat down and likewise of the fishes as much as they would. Now, notice he didn't go to God and say, God, we got a problem. We got 500023:03 men not counting women and children, and they're hungry, and we can't send them back because they'll fade in the wilderness too far back. God, what are we going to do? I rebuke the devil in Jesus23:15 name that would hinder this situation. He didn't do any of that. All he did was do what? Come on tell me, what did he do? He gave what?23:25 That's all he did? Is that enough? If you gave thanks23:30 for what you have in your billfold, could God fill it fuller? If you gave thanks for the job that you have now, could God elevate you? If you gave thanks for the money23:42 that you have in the bank now, could God put more in it?23:47 Yes. Yes. Did it work for Jesus?23:50 Yes. How many did it feed? Well, 5000 men, not counting women, not counting children, 12 basketfuls left over? Is that true? Did they have enough?24:03 God's word is always relevant.
