Sid: My guest Paul Keith Davis is red hot for the Messiah, we’re platforming his book “Angels that Gather” this week. Why should someone read this book Paul Keith Davis?
Paul Keith: I think the people that are reading this book are the ones that are hungry for destiny; they’ve hungry for purpose, and they want to be plugged into what God is doing in this generation.
Sid: What do you mean hungry for destiny?
Paul Keith: We’re seeing all over the body of Christ, and in the world even in people that are not even saved, that there is one thing that is paramount “Why am I here?” What is my purpose?” And I believe beyond a shadow of doubt that we as Christians have the greatest purpose living, living in the greatest generation of any that has ever been destined to walk the face of the earth. And there are people who are, who have been imparted with the seed of destiny for this generation that is profound that people want to know, “Can I walk with God, can I really know God?” And of course the answer to that the question is yes, we’ve given them religion but now we’re promoting relationship.
Sid: Now, people that are hearing you speak on this subject and this came as a result in 2003 in Albany, Oregon you had literally the lenses came off your eyes, and you saw angels and they identified themselves as angels that gather. When you share about this and you share the teaching or people read your book “Angels that Gather,” tell me what’s happened to some of them.
Paul Keith: We’ve had wonderful testimonies both from church leaders, Christian leaders, ministry leaders and pastors. One for instance, I had a man who came from Singapore who has a very large ministry to the Asian nations even into China. And Lord told him to come to one of my meetings in Kansas City, Missouri and this man said, “Lord I don’t have time to go to the United States” and he said, “Besides that I don’t go to conferences I put on conferences.” And the Lord said, “Go!” And so this man came with this very large ministry, sat through the meetings and didn’t really hear anything that he thought was worth flying from Singapore to here until finally on the last evening I brought the message on the angels that gather. And the Lord spoke to him and he came to me after the meeting, I had not met him before, but he said, “This is why I was sent, the Lord sent me here to hear this message.” And so I got an email from him about year later and he has had a conference where he said, 6 or 800 people coming to his conference in Singapore, but he said, “They began to do one thing differently and only one thing from all the prior years; in their intercession for the next conference they began to release the angels that gather.” And their conference went from 6 to 800 to 1600 the next year with nothing different other than the fact that they released the angels that gather to bring every person into the meeting that needed to hear what was going to take place. And the next year it went to 2000 and it’s gone beyond that now. And it’s not so much about just having a big meeting; it’s about people hearing what they need to hear to activate them into the purpose for what they were born. We had another wonderful testimony from a church up in North Alabama, it wasn’t a very large church, a few hundred people, but I brought the message on the angels that gather and it just so happened that the Associate Pastor was also a school teacher and basketball coach at the local high school. Well this was really dear to me because we love young people, but he calls me up you know just a few week after I was there. He said, “For the last year or more he had been you know testifying to and just trying to win his basketball team.” He had fifteen people on his basketball team, fifteen young men and he said, “I haven’t had one person respond, not even one show the slightest interest.” And so he and his wife did nothing different but just begin to release the angels that gather, they said, “Lord you are the Lord of harvest and we release the angles that gather to bring in a harvest of these young men.” He said no sooner had they prayed that prayer that literally one afternoon he heard a knock on his front door and three of those young men were at his door saying “What do we need to do to be saved.” And that probably touched me more than anything and just gave a little token representation that how we are going to cooperate with heaven to bring in this generation of champions.
Sid: Well, would you pray for people that are backslidden or perhaps don’t know the Lord and angles will be released to gather them into the Kingdom.
Paul Keith: Absolutely, and we’re seeing that too, we’re seeing prodigal sons and daughters coming home. I got regular mail from mothers that have sons in prison. I’ve got two from two different prisoners that are reading our material. So I’ll be happy to. “Lord Jesus you are the Lord of the harvest, and there is none like you, you are the Chiefest among 10,000 the one that is all together lovely. And we thank you for this privilege we have to live in this day; the day of the harvest, the day that you are going to co-labor with your people on the earth to being in the greatest wave of harvest the world has ever seen. And right now Lord, according to your word, you said that you would send the angels that gather out of your Kingdom all stumbling blocks and everything that is offensive. And Lord we ask that you send those angels right now, just remove every stumbling block that stands before those destined for salvation. Lord we’re asking that you remove the stumbling block of addiction from prodigals, the stumbling block of unbelief, the stumbling block of rebellion against the sons and the daughters of all these families that are listening to these broadcasts. But we’re asking that you break the shackles of darkness that have held people bound and that you will awaken desperation and a desire to live with you in the kingdom of light, release that Lord so that we can see this harvest coming in into your great glory, we ask in Jesus name.”
Sid: Paul, what is going on, I can feel the presence of God on that prayer, what is going on in the Spirit realm as you’re praying that?
Paul Keith: I believe that when we pray that kind of a prayer that it releases this host of angels and we don’t know who they’re going to, God does but there being sent. And we have actually seen this where these angels are sent to people that are prayed for and they will whisper in their ear day and night “You need to get saved, you need to get right with God.” Just a constant whispering in the ear and a provoking of the hearts of those people wherever they are; Whether they’re in a bar someplace or if they’re running from God or if they’re on the streets; whether they maybe we’re seeing these angels are being dispatched and assigned to them, and staying there until that person comes around.
Sid: Paul why should someone read your book “Angels that Gather?”
Paul Keith: The target of our book is to awaken people to where we are in history, one of the primary things where we are positioned in human history. And that we are probably the most privileged generation though we don’t look like it on the outside, we’re one on of the most privileged generations to live in the day when we’re going to see the Word of God manifested in a way that’s going to bring in the greatest harvest. Everything has been about the harvest; heaven must retain the Lord Jesus until there has been the restoration of all things. And we’re seeing that happening now in a portion of our book is to address that generation that is going to be awaken to that purpose so that we can cooperate with God to see that happen.
Sid: And so literally we can cooperate with God to be empowered for the end of the age harvest. And the end of the age harvest as you’ve explained is not, it is not just souls; there are promises that in fact you were saying and you talk about in your book, some of these great men and woman of God that perhaps didn’t accomplish all they were suppose to those anointing’s are waiting for us now.
Paul Keith: Absolutely, absolutely and come in double portion as well, just like we saw the anointing pass from Elijah to Elisha so also will these anointing be imparted to this company of people. And Sid one interesting thing and I’ll close with too the Lord said something to me last year that was so profound because of the way He said it, He said, “I will have my harvest!” That was just the way He said it.
Sid: So the question is whether we want to be involved with it or not, whether we want to be spectator or a participant.
Paul Keith: That’s exactly it, the only variable is, who is going to cooperate, work with Him and become joined with Him for this purpose; the greats privilege that any generation has ever been offered. There is no power in existence that can keep the Lord from having His harvest.
Sid: Now, you said you cannot meet the needs of people until you meet the needs of God; briefly what did you mean?
Paul Keith: God has a need for fellowship, as profound as that may sound. The whole purpose of the creation of man was for fellowship. And I have to be honest with you when I first began in ministry I thought, I thought that my purpose was to do ministry, but I have modified that. I know now my purpose is to have fellowship with God; I can’t think of a greater privilege, I can’t think of anything that I would rather do. But in the midst of that He also you know allows us and I believe that’s the proper term, allows us to be joined with Him in this mandate and this purpose that He has to see the great Moravian prayer fulfilled. That is that the Lord Jesus would receive the full measure of His reward.
