Call on the Keys!

By MariaMaria #587 CM 3368 9/01

Dearest Family,

1. I love you so much, and pray for each of you as you take the time to study the abundance of New Wine the Lord has recently poured out to us. There's so much we can hardly keep up with it all! Sometimes the great magnitude of something the Lord has said doesn't sink in right away, until later, when we personally experience it or have a need for it. That's often when we realize how important and useful the Lord's counsel is. So, during this time when we're reading the "Conviction versus Compromise" series, we wanted to pass on this practical information on how to use the keys to the Kingdom to give you the power you may need for changes in your lives.

2. The keys to the Kingdom are one of those things that we didn't really understand very much about when He first told us about them. They sounded awesome and magnificent, and we knew that they were a priceless gift to be treasured, definitely something very special, but the practical application of how we would use them, or how they were meant to become a part of our lives, was a little vague.

3. We started asking the Lord more specific questions about how to use the keys a couple of months ago. We were asking the Lord for more information—anything that would help us learn how to use the keys better, what we need to do to activate their power and avail ourselves of this precious gift the Lord has given us.

4. Several of the folks in our Home had recently begun to claim the power of the keys in their prayers, asking for the keys to be activated and give the extra boost needed in whatever situation they were praying for. But we knew we needed more information on exactly how to harness their power or what we needed to do to activate them or benefit from them fully.

Sweetie's Testimony

5. Around the same time as we were coming before the Lord with more questions about the keys, our Home united to pray for Sweetie, one of our dear COs who had been staying with us for about three months‚ and who was due to return to her field in a few weeks time.

6. As you all know from the prayer requests that were published for her‚ Sweetie had battled a serious health affliction for about a year and a half. The symptoms were many—dizziness‚ inability to focus her eyes, diarrhea‚ muscle spasms‚ extreme weakness and fatigue‚ headaches, fevers‚ etc. She had been to several doctors and none of them were able to diagnose what the problem was.

7. She had also had prayer many times for healing, and we had sought the Lord repeatedly about her condition and what she should do about it. It was her continuing struggles with her health that prompted us to invite her to come to our Home for a furlough, a time of rest. Even at our Home, though, with a very light workload and lots of care, she was still battling this affliction. She had good days and bad days, but overall it was continuing.

8. When she came before our Home for prayer just a few short weeks before she was scheduled to return home, it went along pretty much as usual—everyone prayed fervently for her, a couple of people received messages of encouragement from the Lord, and devotions was about to be dismissed. But the Lord laid it on the heart of one of the members of our Home who has been working with me on the GNs about the keys, that we needed to call on the power of the keys for Sweetie's healing. So, God bless her, Misty stepped out by faith and shared what the Lord was telling her, and several people prayed‚ specifically asking for the power of the keys of the Kingdom that has been promised to us.

9. I'll let Sweetie tell you the rest in her own words. This is from a tape that she made for Peter and me the next day.

10. (Sweetie:) I imagine you've already heard about what happened during yesterday morning's devotions. To put it mildly, it was exciting and life-changing!

11. A few of us in the Home got prayer for things. I got prayer for my health and that the Lord would use the doctor I'm visit­ing to be a help, and I also asked for prayer for faith, since I need to make a decision soon about whether or not I'm going to be a chairman of one of the regional boards in our area. Then three others also shared lessons and asked for prayer for various areas of their lives. We all had prayer and the Lord gave prophecies for each of us.

12. Then, when everybody thought devotions was over, Misty spoke up and said that she was getting a strong check that we needed to call on the power of the keys of the Kingdom for my healing. She suggested that if I'm ever going to get healed, instead of just praying our regular prayers, we really need to call on the power of the keys of the Kingdom and expect the Lord to do a miracle. So that's what we did!

13. So several people with the gift of healing laid hands on me and prayed, calling on the power of the keys, and then the Lord gave some encouragement, and Dad spoke and said that the Lord has done it, that I'm healed! It was very clear that the healing has taken place; it's done! Thank You Jesus! I'm very happy and feel like celebrating. I imagine there may be a few tests and "lying vanities" I'll have to fight, but I know the Lord did the miracle of healing, which is wonderful!

14. (Later:) It's been almost a month now since I've had that prayer and I can testify that I'm much stronger, healthier‚ and I haven't been sick in bed one day since then! Of course, the Enemy didn't give up without a fight and I had an attack of "lying vanities" once, but even then the ­Enemy was defeated pretty quickly, just like the messages published in the GNs said about how the Lord's now given us the power to "rise above!" (End of excerpt from Sweetie.)

15. (Mama: ) During the prayer for Sweetie in which we claimed the keys of the Kingdom for her healing‚ one of the folks in our Home received the following vision:

16. (Vision: ) I started getting this ­vision, which was very heavy. I was crying through it, and I couldn't talk. It was a ­vision of a very powerful woman angel or spirit helper who was like part of the wind, kind of like a tornado or a hurricane or something‚ and part of her body was coming out of it. You couldn't see her feet‚ but her arms and her clothing were all a very powerful wind, almost like a storm, but with a good spirit.

17. She was saying, "Call on the power of the keys. You have to say, 'We call on the power of the keys.’ You have to say the words, 'We call on the power of the keys for healing.'" She just kept saying that ... and right then Misty said the same thing in the first line of her prayer, "We call on the power of the keys." I don't know what she was, but she was very significant and she was saying, "That's what you have to do. You have to say this specifically."

18. She was beckoning and calling—not frantic, but very impassioned, saying, "You have to just call on the power of the keys"—like if you don't, it won't do any good. "You have to say these words‚" and then Misty said the exact words. (End of vision.)

Ellya

19. (Mama:) We knew this was significant and so we asked the Lord, "Sweet Husband, could You please speak more about this woman? Who is she? What does she represent or stand for? What does she have to do with the keys? Does she have a message to give? Do You have anything to say about her? Could You please also tell us more about the little she said about the words to use when calling on the power of the keys? Is there more to it? Are there more words we should say to harness the power of the keys?"

20. (Jesus speaking:) The woman you saw in your vision is a spirit of great power, a spirit of the wind and the air, a spirit of the whisperings and pleadings of My Spirit. She is like unto the spirits portrayed as gods and goddesses of old in Greek and Roman mythology, but she is real and she exists today! She represents the new era of greater miracles and greater works, specifically concerning the power of the keys and what they can do for you, My children.

21. Her name is Ellya [pronounced ELL-yah]. She has been in existence from almost the beginning of time. She has stayed close to My heart and My side‚ and has always pled My cause. During the time of the great division in Heaven, when ­Lucifer chose to leave My side and the calling I had entrusted to him, Ellya pled and reasoned with her fellow angels and spirits of the heavens to remain true and faithful. During the great confusion and the evil times of Noah's day, she also pled with the world to forsake their sins and to turn to Me. This she has done through the ages, at every turn‚ without ceasing.

22. Because of her great love and sacrifice in pleading with both men and angels countless times, I have given her great power. Her power comes from her desire to see all life, humans and spirits alike‚ follow Me and walk aright. In following and yielding one's will to Me, there is great power. Likewise, there is even more power granted to one who not only follows Me, but seeks to persuade others to do the same. This is the deep secret of Ellya's power.

23. Since the beginning of time, Ellya has taken on many forms. Whatever form best suited her mission, she has become. Now you see her as the woman of the wind, graceful and beautiful‚ yet powerful and awesome. She carries great strength, and her very being is absorbed by and is one with the power of the wind. The atmos­phere moves and erupts wherever she goes, yet it is a Godly power—a demonstration of My great power through one who is set to fulfill her present mission.

24. She has taken on the form of the wind in order to whisper the secrets of the keys to you, My children, everywhere. The wind and the air is always around you. Ellya is also always around you in some form, for as the woman of the wind‚ she is connected and extended throughout every current of air, every gust of wind, every storm and the surrounding calm. In essence, she can be everywhere through this vehicle, although she herself‚ her full presence and being, is not always there.

25. Her mission is to draw you, My children, toward the keys. Her mission is to plead with you, to show you‚ to teach you, to beg you to use the keys, and to use them properly. You have much to learn about the keys. Ellya is versed in all knowledge and wisdom concerning the keys. I have put My mind and heart concerning the keys within her for this very task. Her soul mirrors Mine in her deep desire to enlighten your hearts and turn them toward the keys. She will use all the power she possesses to draw your attention to the keys.

26. Ellya represents the power in the Heavenlies that you can have on the Earth, within the carnal and natural realm of man. You can receive the same power that she possesses‚ to be applied in spiritual and miraculous ways in your service for Me. Though not all the spiritual manifestations of her power are available to you, such as her ability to change form and manner, you can possess the deep power of the keys just as she does, which provide her with all the strength and command that she is known for.

27. Hear her calling to you, begging you to use the keys! She knows that you want to use the keys, that you have faith in them and long to see that faith manifested in tangible miracles and marvels. She wants to teach you how to use the keys, like an old and revered sword that has done much battle and never seen defeat, so that your skill can be sharpened, your power activated, your spiritual resources never-ending, and your own weak self turned into a champion that is undefeat­able. This is all reality, My loves.

28. She now gives you your first lesson: the proper way in which to call on the keys. I will let her speak for herself, for her pleading has reached your heart and she is impassioned and persuasive. Listen to her words well, for once you have been under her tutelage, only your lack of faith and unbelief will limit you. I have given her My permission to doubly empower those who cling to her words, who hunger and thirst after her instruction, and who do as she pleads. Ellya is part of the full activation process of the keys that are available to you. You will learn more as time goes on, as you obey the first steps that are shown to you, and look for more.

29. I am very pleased that you have found this great treasure and have inquired after it. In listening to Me and receiving the training that I have ordained Ellya to give you, your understanding of the keys will grow tremendously, and you will advance quickly. She will teach and explain to you one lesson at a time. She will not give you more than a simple instruction in one sitting, and she will wait for you to absorb and implement what she has given before she is permitted to dispense more. This is My command, because the gift of the keys is so priceless, and I will only give it to those who are respectful of My Words, and those who are willing to be taught and instructed.

30. Many will hunger and lust after the power of the keys. As My children advance in their use of the keys and learn to harness the untold power of the keys, others will seek after the keys in order to twist their use toward personal glory and fame. These will be eager to learn, to be instructed‚ to follow the steps to power. But they will find none. The keys are only activated through sincerity of heart, and without the quality of a deep love for Me‚ dedication, and yieldedness to Me‚ the keys give no power. The keys know the heart of a believer, and they will not be deceived or made a mockery of by selfish and power-hungry users.

31. There are other gifts that I have given those in the world‚ both Christians and non–Christians—gifts of special powers, healing, discernment‚ mind-reading, connection with the spirit world‚ extreme knowledge, and many others. But the gift of the keys is only for those who go further—who love Me, who live for Me, and who give their lives for Me. The gift of the keys is for My Endtime disciples.

32. So seek within your own heart for the desire to be a disciple. The power of the keys will equal your commitment to discipleship, and not only your commitment, but your day-to-day living. As you dedicate yourself, and live your dedication daily, the power will come to you in the same measure. Then you must harness it and utilize it. These are the guidelines and the conditions of the keys of the Kingdom. (End of message from Jesus.)

Call on the Power of the Keys!

33. (Ellya speaking:) Whisss‚ whisss, whisper of the wind! I call, I cry, I chant. I find your ear and a listening heart, and the power glows. I feel it deep within me, inside of my heart and innermost being. I pulse. The wind quiets. It is time to share the secrets of the keys with those for whom the power is intended.

34. This is one of the most priceless gifts ever given to man. Aside from the gift of salvation, when Jesus came to Earth to give His life for your sins, and the gift of the Holy Spirit, which God bestowed upon you when Jesus departed, the gift of the keys grants you an unparalleled wonder.

35. As My Lover and King has told you, I long to tell you how to call on the keys. First, you must understand that the keys of the Kingdom are real. They exist. They are not a mere symbol, nor some sort of ornamental representation. They are a real and living, vibrant entity. The keys are alive, and they represent our Savior's spirit and all the power of Heaven, which can never be conquered. When you call on the keys, remember that you are calling on a living, moving, powerful, spiritual phenomenon. The keys of the Kingdom have been granted power by God, and they release power in return. When you call on the keys, they will unleash power on your behalf.

36. You must call specifically on the power of the keys, or the power of the keys of the Kingdom. The more specific you are, the better. The keys are activated in part by faith, and the more faith you demonstrate in calling on the keys by name, showing that you believe they are real and exist, the more responsive power you will receive.

37. Say these words in your prayers and times of intercession, when you are asking for great things‚ for the marvelous works promised to you in the era of action‚ the era of miracles‚ the era of greater works‚ the era of no impossibilities, the era of rising above. These are some of the words of power, and as you speak these words, your prayers will be taken straight to the keys, and will return with power and the miracles you have asked for.

• "I call on the power of the keys."

• "We claim the power of the keys of the Kingdom."

• "I take hold of the power of the keys."

• "Release the power of the keys into our hands."

• "Deliver the power of the keys unto us, for Your glory."

• "We harness the power of the keys of the Kingdom."

• "We reach out to the power of the keys."

38. When you begin to pray‚ you must specify that you are calling on the power of the keys. Say those words in your first or second sentence. The power does not come on until you call for it. Avail yourself of the power of the keys from the moment you begin interceding. That is the first step. That opens the door for miracles. So call! Call on the power of the keys. Say the words. You cannot harness the power of the keys if you do not call on them by name. They beg to be used, but they must be called upon by name.

39. Until our next meeting‚ then! I will whisper and remind you to call on the keys, and when you have learned this‚ seek for the next whispering. (End of message from Ellya.)

Text box:

40. (Jesus speaking:) I know that some of you wonder about the keys of the Kingdom‚ and whether you truly need their power, for have I not said that you could even move mountains with but a mustard seed of faith? It is true that you have great power simply by knowing Me and being able to claim the promises of My Word through your obedience. But the keys grant you even greater power, and give you the ability to use it more readily and easily!

41. Think of it as if it were a major upgrade on your computer hardware or software. You may have been able to do some things on your computer before, but the upgrade gives you the ability to do much more, and to do it faster and easier. The keys of the Kingdom are an upgrade to your power in every way, and you will see this increased power manifested as you call on them, claim their power, and put them to use! (End of message from Jesus.)

End of text box.

You Need the Power Now!

42. (Mama:) There is obviously much about the keys that is still a mystery to us, that we will yet learn and discover as we go along! But one thing is very clear: We must learn to use the power, and the way to begin is to call for it, to ask for it specifically when we pray.

43. Here is another message the Lord gave when we asked Him what more we needed to know about using the keys.

44. (Jesus speaking:) I am bringing the power of the keys to your attention from many directions and avenues because I want to get your attention. I want you to be thinking about the keys, asking Me about the keys, and getting more information. This is indeed a priority. You are right in knowing that this will be a crucial part of the Family having the power they need to make the changes I am asking of them.

45. (Mama:) You'll be happy to know that the Lord has poured out abundantly about the keys—their inner workings and more details of their power, and you'll be receiving some of the material for this coming Feast! So there is much more yet to come. But as the Lord said, this information that He's giving us right here is crucial, because we need it now. We have to learn to use the keys, because we need their power right now to make the changes in the Family that He's asking of us.

46. (Jesus continues:) The Family needs to have their eyes opened to the fact that they haven't used the keys as they should have; they've neglected them, thinking that they would use them later. It's not that the Family has purposely or willfully neg­lected this precious treasure. It's just that they need reminders; they need to be taught and lectured and trained.

47. At this time they are not calling on the power of the keys. They're not using the keys, and consequently they're not availing themselves of the power they need. The battles have intensified‚ and so has My power. The battles will confront and try each Family member because the ­Enemy is faithfully on the job—testing‚ delaying‚ and discouraging. I allow these attacks to strengthen My children and to defeat the Enemy‚ among many other reasons, but when My children do not come to Me for the help and power they need, then they are sometimes defeated instead. It is not a permanent defeat, for I will triumph in the end, but it is a loss, a setback.

48. If the Family neglects the intensified power that is at their disposal, they are at a great dis­advantage. They feel the heat of the battle‚ but they weaken because they are trying to do it somewhat on their own, or with limited and "outdated" weaponry. They have the power at their fingertips‚ but it's just out of reach as they're not thinking, remembering‚ and actively using the keys.

49. They must be alerted to this. They must see that they've taken this extremely important revelation for granted. Many of them have neglected to use the keys as they could have, or have regarded them as solely a spiritual matter rather than something with far-reaching practical implications, so this revelation has not brought the change I would have it bring to their everyday lives. I want their reactions, decisions, prayers, everything to work through the power of the keys.

50. The Family is in need of two things right now regarding the keys: (1) a clear reminder that they should be using the keys now, and (2) examples of how and when to use the keys. The greater understanding of the deep things of the keys will be revealed later. You don't have to understand every single thing before you can begin to use the keys. It's similar to prayer. You keep learning about prayer throughout your life. There's always more to learn. It's a fascinating and awesomely deep subject in the world of the spirit. But you don't wait until you understand all that; you start praying right away. You don't have to know everything to pray and for those prayers to have effect. Even babes can pray! It's the same with the keys. You don't have to under­stand all about them; just use them, call on them, do it. (End of message from Jesus.)

Say the Words!

51. (Mama:) The Lord then went on to give some very specific instruction as to how to use the keys in our prayers. He said:

52. (Jesus speaking:) Using the keys in your prayers is really simple. It doesn't require eloquence or a lot of deep understanding of all the intricacies of the keys, it just requires saying the words. The power of the keys is not activated until you say the words, until you actually verbally call on the power of the keys.

53. Even if you just say that over and over, "I call on the power of the keys," that would do the trick. That would immediately put at your disposal all the awesome power of the universe.

54. It's easy and simple, but the catch is, you must say the words. Just like you don't activate the power of prayer until you actually pray‚ so you don't activate the power of the keys until you verbally and deliberately acknowledge and manifest faith in the keys by calling on that power. Then it's there, in a flash.

55. So actually, it should be easy to learn to use the keys in your prayers. It's not that you have to relearn to pray or do something so very different; it's simply an addition to your prayers, that of calling on the keys, claiming the power of the keys, showing your faith in this gift by asking for it.

56. So your keys of the Kingdom prayers can be very much like what you pray now, just with this addition, this recognition and direct clear reference to the keys, an obvious acknowledgment that you want to avail yourself of this power.

57. I know My children like variety, and that's why I want to supply many "Keys of the Kingdom Promises" so you can claim them in prayer. That will make it easier to continue to use the keys, for I know otherwise you would weary of constantly saying the same phrase. Also, knowing I gave these promises, just as I gave the promises you claim and stand on in the Bible, will increase your faith, for you will know clearly that what you're praying for—whether it's healing, supply, deliverance, open doors, unity, the power to forgive, whatever—has been accounted for in the power of the keys. When you see your need specifically mentioned, then you have more faith that it's within the power and it's My will to supply that need and to do it through the keys.

58. You know that "faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God." According to that spiritual principle, faith in the keys will come by hearing these promises‚ and knowing that I want you to claim them in your prayers. I want to work miracles through the keys, but you must release that power; you must claim it and demonstrate your faith in it through calling on it. Just as you claim promises in the Bible and it strengthens your faith, so you can claim these modern-day promises with as much confidence. They are My promises to you and they will not fail you.

59. Claim these promises of the power of the keys and you will see miracles, and so, through the power of the keys of the Kingdom‚ shall the ministry of miracles both great and small become a reality in each one of your lives. (End of message from Jesus.)

60. (Mama: ) That is how all these awe-inspiring things the Lord has been promising us will be fulfilled—through the power of the keys! The ministry of mir­acles, the expansion of the Family, our becoming a financial power, the witness being increased‚ even greater faith and fruitfulness and the ability to rise above—it's all ours through the power of the keys!

Miracles Involving the Keys

61. Around the same time that the Lord was giving these messages about the keys and how to use them, there were several other outstanding instances of mir­acles in our Home involving the keys. The Lord was obviously bringing the keys to our attention in a big way. He wants us to focus on their power and learn to use it.

62. One example was when Peter and I had to give some rather strong correction to Matthew‚ one of our co-workers. He's a precious, faithful man, and we couldn't do without him. We love him dearly‚ and are very thankful and proud of him for the progress that he's made over the years. But the Lord knew that more change was necessary, and gave some pretty strong mess­ages both to him and about him‚ which the Lord led Peter and I to give to him. Here is his testimony of what happened, taken from his explanation to our Home when he asked for united prayer. He said:

63. (Matthew:) I would just like to testify of a great miracle that happened to me this time in my correction. I have had over 50 years of correction in my life, and lots of it. And I have always hated and resisted it. Before the Family it was mainly because of my total resentment of any authority over me. Thankfully, being in the U.S. Army and the early years in the Family knocked some of that chip off my shoulder. But even in the Family I dreaded correction and "NWO talks"—I'm sure partly because of this resentment of authority. But I believe the main reason was because of the discouragement and despair it brought me, as I felt in my heart that I just wouldn't be able to change. Of course, prayer works and there was some change over the years, but I would still be over­come with hopeless­ness.

64. But this time when Mama came to give me a prophecy about my problems, I imme­diately called on the power of the keys to the Kingdom to give me a desire for the correction rather than a fear of it. I prayed desperately even before reading the prophecy that I would be able to fully receive it all, without any condemnation or discouragement. And the Lord miraculously did it! I haven't had one moment of condemnation or discouragement, thinking that I couldn't change and get the victory over these problems and weak­nesses in my life and walk with the Lord. So I'm a huge believer in the power that the Lord has now given us through the keys of the Kingdom‚ and I'm positive that they have been activated in my life. Glory to God!

65. After I had a chance to read the prophecy—a message from Jesus to me—and pray about it, then Mama and Peter talked with me for two hours. Even during that time, I felt a total peace. Afterwards they gave me more counsel from the Lord—this time it was about me rather than to me—with more detail, again hard-hitting. I read that additional counsel from the Lord the next morning and was able to receive it without feeling at all discouraged, which was another huge miracle. (End of excerpt.)

66. (Mama:) One of our SGA women also testified of a miraculous healing which took place around the same time.

67. (SGA woman:) I recently asked for united prayer for healing from ovarian cysts. I found out that I had cysts a couple of years ago, and had asked a few of my close friends to pray for me, but hadn't come before the body to ask for united prayer. Over the last couple of years my condition became more problematic and more painful, and I wanted to look into some sort of treatment. I went to the Lord about this recently and He challenged me to ask for united prayer and claim the power of the keys and His promises of healing. He said:

68. (Jesus speaking:) Asking for prayer for your health problem is taking the first step on the road to recovery. Full healing has been waiting for you for many months, but you have not been ready to take it by fulfilling your requirement: using the power of the keys to claim My healing.

69. It is My time to heal and to save. You think you lack full faith for this healing, because it is something that you have battled with for so long, but I will heal you. By asking for united prayer you show a measure of faith, and you allow Me to go with the faith of others who pray for you. Though you are weak in faith for your healing, the strength and power of prayer will fill in where you lack and I will work the miracle. (End of message from Jesus.)

70. I asked the women in our Home to pray for me that evening. The prayers were beautiful, as each person claimed the power of the keys for my healing, and then we had a time of hearing from the Lord.

71. The Lord gave His confirmation that the miracle was done.

72. (Jesus speaking:)

In these keys is a golden glow,

And through these keys does My power flow.

As you use these keys will the day dawn bright,

And fill your soul with My healing light.

73. I will honor your faith, My precious bride, and I will bless your humility in calling for prayer and the laying on of hands. I will especially bring forth a testimony for good because of your faith to call upon the keys of the Kingdom.

74. I know you are stepping out by faith. This is a new direction, a new stretching of your faith. This is a new demonstration of yieldedness and belief, and you will not be disappointed, for you will see signs following and you will see the miracle that you seek. I will and I have touched and healed. I have made you perfectly whole.

75. So fear not, for as the one who touched the hem of My garment received a blessing for her faith, so have I touched you. My power has entered into you through the hands of your loved ones and through the faith of their prayers and through their taking hold of the keys of the Kingdom on your behalf, and you have found the healing that you seek.

76. Fear not and be not dismayed, for know that what I have promised I am able to perform, and you will see a performance of these things that I have told you in honor and testimony and reward of your faith and your asking.

v

77. My precious love, do not fear the humbling‚ for the humbling is part of the healing, and just as important. For with the testimony that has carried on through the ages of the woman who cast herself at My feet, touching the hem of My garment—the testimony of her humility rings as loud as the testimony of her desperation and her faith.

78. Humility is a beautiful thing. It is to be worn with pride. So do not fear what I am doing in your life. Be thankful and rejoice. (End of message from Jesus)

79. (SGA woman continues: ) It shouldn't be so surprising‚ but it's been two weeks since that day, and by all signs I am healed. I was in pain and bleeding pretty much all the time for several months, but it ended that evening—another fulfillment of the Lord's promises of the power of the keys. (End of testimony from SGA woman.)

80. (Mama: ) There are obviously conditions attached to using the keys. We have to be obeying the Lord and asking for something that is within His will. The Lord also said: "Because the gift of the keys is so priceless, I will only give it to those who are respectful of My Words‚ and those who are willing to be taught and instructed. … The keys are only activated through sincerity of heart, and without the quality of a deep love for Me‚ dedication, and yielded­ness to Me, the keys give no power. … The gift of the keys is only for those who go further, who love Me, who live for Me, and who give their lives for Me. The gift of the keys is for My Endtime disciples.

81. "So seek within your own heart for the desire to be a disciple. The power of the keys will equal your commitment to discipleship, and not only your commitment, but your day-to-day living. As you dedicate yourself, and live your dedication daily, the power will come to you in the same measure. Then you must harness it and utilize it. These are the guidelines and the conditions of the keys of the Kingdom."

82. Lord help us to be worthy of this im­measurable treasure He has given us!

83. Here now are the promises the Lord gave for us to claim and appropriate about the keys and the power they hold for us, and a sample prayer He gave as an example of how to claim the power of the keys and use the promises He's given. We hope to receive more of these promises in the future, and we'll get them to you as soon as we're able. Accompanying this GN (or coming soon) you will receive these same promises in sheets, ready to be cut up and used as a promise box, or however you can use them best.

84. I pray that you'll take full advantage of this wonderful gift by calling on their power at every opportunity. Whenever there's a need, we want to do all we can, and without calling on the keys we're not really availing ourselves of all the power that we have. If we don't think of the keys, then we don't use them, and if we don't remind each other, then we don't practice and we don't grow, and we will miss out on the reality of this revelation, this tremendous gift‚ this awesome power the Lord has given us!

85. We need the keys in order to fulfill our destiny. It's not possible without them. So Lord help us to do our part, to use them, to exercise our faith, and make room for the Lord to do the miracles that He has promised!

Sample Prayer for Healing

144. Wonderful Lover, we thank You for being our Great Physician. We call on the power of the keys of the Kingdom for healing. You said, "Whosoever will call upon the power of the keys will work miracles." We call on that power now. We ask for a miracle. You said, "The power of the keys of the Kingdom will rebuke and bind ­every power of the Devil." Through that power we rebuke this attack of the Enemy, this sickness, and we ask that You raise up our loved one to full health.

145. Darling Husband, You said, "Is any sick among you? Let him call for the ­elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the Name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith shall save the sick and the Lord shall raise him up" (James 5:14,15a). We are obeying You with this united prayer, the laying on of hands, and the anointing of oil.

146. Thank You for Your promises, dear Love. Thank You for Your healing power. Thank You for the keys of the Kingdom, which You said are the most precious spiritual gift You've given us, next to salvation and the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

147. We are forever grateful, Jesus, and we expect miracles. We humbly and with open hearts wait to see the fulfillment of Your promises—both from the Bible and the promises You've given us today. We have fulfilled our end of the bargain, now we ask that You do what we cannot do. Thank You and praise to You, precious Lover. We give You, our Miracle Man, all the glory.
