The Healing Anointingme and had thrown a cloak on me. I could feel it all over me.
Again, I knew it wouldn't last long because I could not
physically stand it, so I started running and touching people with
my finger. (I didn't take time to touch them with my hands.)
I was caught up in that glory, and they told me everybody I
touched fell. Then that anointing lifted from me. I couldn't have
stood it any longer.
That stronger anointing has come on me four times in the
past 20 years.
In September 1970, while my wife and I were in New York
State, the Lord instructed me to return to Tulsa and hold a
seminar. Our offices then were in Brother T. L. Osborn's old
office building on North Utica. We had a little chapel in there
that would seat 300, so we'd hold a seminar now and then.
The Lord told me to have a Healing Seminar at night and a
Prayer Seminar in the mornings from October 11-18, 1970. He
said, "Teach on intercessory prayer." (Those messages were
later made into the book The Interceding Christian.)
'That Stronger Anointing'
He told me what to teach on in every service. "When you
come to Wednesday night," He said, "speak on special ministries
and special anointings. Relate your experience of what I said to
you 20 years ago when I appeared to you, and then lay hands on
the people.
"And when you lay hands on them, that stronger anointing
that has come on you four times in the last 20 years will come to
abide. This will be a new beginning for you. You see, you've
never done what you should have done with the healing
ministry."
(I've been running ever since then, trying to keep up with
what God's doing. It takes all my time and effort to try to keep
up with Him!)
Six weeks before that 1970 seminar I had a vision of people
lying all over the front of that little auditorium and up on the
