Traveling in China in 1934 was fraught with danger. Lester’s life was almost lost on more than one occasion. One time, after drinking water that had not been boiled long enough, he became deathly ill with dysentery and fever. As his conditioned worsened, he began to hemorrhage from his intestines, racked with pain and an ever-rising fever. Lester wasn’t a complainer, though, so Howard Carter had no idea how ill he really was.
The next morning, when the caravan began to move, with Lester’s mule last in line, the hours of diarrhea and lack of food made Lester faint, and he fell off of his mule. Crawling to a bush, he fastened the mule’s rope and then passed into unconsciousness. No one in his party was aware of what had happened. He was left on the road in China to die.
Hours later, Lester woke up alone but was astonished to discover that he was completely well! His fever was gone; his strength was returning. God had healed him as he had slept. Lester remained in that spot until someone from his caravan returned and found him. He then continued on in the journey, rejoicing in God’s faithfulness.
A few years later, while preaching in Mobile, Alabama, Lester discovered what had really happened in the heavenlies that day. The pastor of the church in Mobile, who was also a longtime friend, and his wife shared a strange story. They had been warned by the Holy Spirit one evening that Lester was dying somewhere on the other side of the world. They had fallen on their knees, crying out to the Lord, “Save him. Save him. Don’t let him die.”Later that evening, when Lester checked his diary, he discovered that their prayers on his behalf had been offered at the exact time he had been struggling for his life. He shared this with his friends, and God’s faithfulness once again brought them to their knees in thanksgiving!

SPEAK THE LANGUAGE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.
One Christmas Eve I was busy preparing a sermon.
Later an urgent telephone call came in the early morning hours of Christmas day. A man calling from Seoul National Hospital asked, “Are you Pastor Cho?”
“Yes, I am.”
“One of your members is dying. He was in a car accident. A taxi hit him, then rode around all through the morning with him in the back seat.”
In Korea at that time, if someone was hit and killed by a taxi, the taxi-driver would only have to pay the sum of $2500, and then would be cleared of all financial obligation. However, if
the victim were only injured, then the driver would have to pay for all of the medical and hospital bills. So if a driver hitsomeone and no one saw the accident, he would then drive
that person around until he or she died; it would be cheaper for him.
This member had bought a beautiful hat, with some other articles, for his wife. He was so carried away with the joy of giving these presents, that he jay walked across the street
without watching the light, and was hit by a taxi. Since it was late evening and no one saw, this taxi-driver had carried that man in his car throughout the evening. The man did not die,
and eventually a policeman caught the taxi, and carried the man to a hospital. The impact of the accident had badly impaired his intestines, and his stomach was full of dirt and blood; blood
poisoning had already set in.
His doctor knew me and called, saying, “Dr. Cho, should we operate on him? Medically speaking, it’s hopeless. He was without medical attention for such a long time that blood poisoning has set in. There will be no way for us to cure him?”
But I said, “You go ahead and operate on him, and as soon as I finish the Christmas sermon, I’ll run to the hospital.”
After the Christmas service I rushed to the emergency room of Seoul National University Hospital, and there he was, totally unconscious.
The doctor again said there would be no hope,
“Reverend, don’t expect anything. He is dying. We could do nothing. When we opened his stomach,there were three places
where the intestines were completely cut off, and these areas were filled with his excrement and dirt. There is no hope.”I replied, “Well, I’ll try to do my best.”
When I went in he was in a deep coma. I knelt beside him and said, “Lord God, give me only five minutes, then I will try.
Let him come out of the coma for five minutes, then I will try.”
As I was praying I felt something moving. I opened my eyes, and the man opened his eyes.
“So listen to me. Picture a young man. He says good-bye to his wife. He’s full of beauty and health. He goes to his office, and completes his business successfully.
“All the people respect and admire him. Evening arrives and he buys nice gifts for his wife, who is waiting for him to come home and eat supper. When he arrives she rushes out to the gate and welcomes him with a big hug and kiss. They go into the house, share a delicious meal together, and a quiet evening at home.
“Oh pastor, I’m dying,” he cried.
I knew then that I had five minutes. I replied, “You can’t say that. As long as you keep saying that you will die, then I can’t help you. You must change your imagination and thinking. Change your vision and dream, for the only way to
carry out dominion over this third dimension material world is through your imagination, your visions and dreams.“The man I am talking about is no stranger. That man is you! Think of that man! Draw that picture in your mind. Look at that man and say in your heart, that man is me!
“Don’t draw a picture of death. Don’t draw a picture of a dead corpse. Keep on dreaming about that man, and I’ll do the praying. You just draw a mental picture, and leave the praying
to me. Will you do that?”
“Yes, pastor, I’ll change my dream. I’ll change my thinking.
I’ll say that I’m that man. I’ll try to make that vision and dream a reality… I see it!” he cried.
While we were talking this surgeon had come in with his nurses. They started giggling and laughing at me, and thought that I had lost my mind. But I was serious, for I knew the law of
the Spirit’s fourth dimension, and that man had begun to speak the language of the Holy Spirit. Like a missionary on a foreign field who gains a deeper level of communication with the local
people of that country by learning to speak their language directly, instead of using an interpreter, so that dying man had learned the deeper language of the Holy Spirit.
As I knelt down and grabbed hold of his bed, I prayed,
“Dear Holy Spirit, now he speaks your language. He has a vision and a dream. Rush into his physical body, and carry out your dominion. I command this man to be whole and to be filled with healing power!”Suddenly the group of unbelieving nurses said, “This room is too hot. The heat is too high.”
But the weather was very cold. There was no heat; it was the power of the Holy Spirit giving off all the heat. The surgeon and those nurses began to feel fire. Their ears turned red, and
the power of God became so strong that we even felt the bed trembling.
Amazingly, in one week that man rose up and walked out of the hospital. He is now in the chemical business, doing wonderfully. Whenever I see him on Sunday morning, sitting in the balcony, I say to myself, “Praise God! We spoke the Holy Spirit’s language. We created. Hallelujah

OPEN HEAVEN DAILY DEVOTIONAL
DATE: TUESDAY MAY 5TH 2026
TOPIC: SECRETS TO LONGEVITY II
MEMORISE:
"Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you". James 4:7
BIBLE READING: EPHESIANS 6:10-17
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
MESSAGE:
Yesterday, I started sharing some secrets to longevity and how believers can stay the course on the path that God has set before them. Today, I will share another secret to longevity: knowing when to fight.
When you are confronted by the devil, you shouldn't run or hide; rather, you must stand and fight. The devil is not a gentle spirit; he tries to cheat his victims out of their rights, steal from them, kill them, and destroy them (John 10:1. Therefore, every time he raises his ugly head, you must resist him immediately and put him in his place with the sword of the Spirit (the word of God). Many people think that they can cohabit with the devil and enter into agreements with him. For instance, they might have a family tradition of making certain sacrifices to deities for protection, and they think that by keeping the traditions alive, the devil will leave them alone. However, this never works because the devil is a great deceiver; he is a big liar, and he is the father of lies (John 8:44). He is not someone to make deals with, which is why today's memory verse says that you should resist him so that he will flee from you. You should not partner with him or shake hands with him.
Today's Bible reading says that believers wrestle against principalities, powers, the rulers of darkness of this world, and against spiritual wickedness in high places. It also says that believers must put on the whole armour of God, but you will notice that there is no piece of armour to protect our backs. This means that the moment a believer turns his or her back on the devil, he will attack the believer. Therefore, you should never turn your back to run away from him. For instance, if you perceive that the devil is trying to attack your marriage, simply calling a family meeting will not suffice because the Bible says in 2 Corinthians 10:3-4 that the weapons we have been given for warfare are not physical. Rather, you must send the devil packing out of your home by going against him with the sword of the Spirit (the word of God). Likewise, if you observe that some strange things are happening in the ministry that God has placed in your hands or that the devil is trying to attack your job or business, get up and fight! Never turn your back on the devil; he does not play fair.
KEY POINT:
Your response to the devil should never be to run and hide; rather, you must stand and fight.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: 1 CHRONICLES 20-23

HYMN 12: ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS
1 Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus,
Who is gone before!
Christ, the Royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banner go!
Refrain:
Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war,
Looking unto Jesus
Who is gone before!
2 At the name of Jesus
Satan's host doth flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell's foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
loud your anthems raise!
3 Like a mighty army
Moves the Church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.
4 Crowns and thrones may perish,
Kingdoms rise and wane;
But the Church of Jesus,
Constant will remain,
Gates of hell can never,
'Gainst the Church prevail;
We have Christ's own promise,
And that cannot fail.
5 Onward, then, ye people,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song;
"Glory, praise and honour,
Unto Christ the King",
This, thro' countless ages,
Men and angels sing.
