Our Guest Mike Shreve
SID: Mike, early on you had an attack on the integrity of the Word of God, but God is so good. He gave you a dream. I wish everyone would catch the revelation right now, of this dream. What did he show you?
MIKE: That was my biggest battle, whether or not the Word of God was actually the Word of God. It was like all day long, every day I had this pressure of hundreds of thoughts coming into my mind. And so I was in this war in my mind. And God did give a promise, Sid, that in the last days he would pour out his spirit on all flesh and the result would be dreams and visions, dreams and visions. And I asked God to resolve the issue, and he gave me this phenomenal dream where shortly after I was saved, I saw in this dream in the night, this night vision, the Lord Jesus Christ came to me. He was standing before me in all his radiant glory and then all of a sudden, he disappeared and in his place was the open book with Hebrew printing and I knew it was the Bible, intuitively. And I knew that that was God’s way of saying that I and my Word are one and the same because it was the same space. But the thing that really attracted me the most about it is the book was pulsating like it had a heartbeat. And every time it would pulsate, a river of light would pour off the pages into me, and I woke up with this incredible feeling of this warm, heavenly light pouring into me. Well needless to say, I never doubted the Word of God again. I knew it was [unintelligible].
SID: That was important. Mike, you have lived a life of victory for over 40 years now based on one powerful truth and it seems so simple, yet it is so important. You prayed the promises and not the problems. Why is that?
MIKE: Well God gave me that vision about the Word of God I realized that I needed to find every positive application of the Word of God. And I began studying the promises, and I found out eventually there are 7,487 promises in God’s Word, and they’re all mine. They’re all yours. They belong to every one of us.
SID: Now what to you is a promise from the Bible?
MIKE: A promise is a pledge, is a firm and unwavering agreement. It’s a commitment from the lips of God that he will do or will not do some specific thing. There are no problems you could ever face in life where there isn’t already in advance a promise strong enough, powerful enough to take you through the problem to sure victory on the other side. God’s promises, God made me hold to them, seize them in the name of the Lord and expect God to watch over his word to fulfill it.
SID: You had a revelation of the Throne Room that you say once someone grasps this revelation of the Throne Room every life-threatening problem evaporates. I want to find out about it. Be right back.
