The Power of Proclamation Pt. 3

Derek Prince teaches on Moses' encounter with the rod that became a serpent, drawing a parallel to how believers must first tremble at God's word, then take hold of it by faith, and finally stretch it out in authority over every situation. He highlights Psalm 149:5-9, explaining that the "saints" (Hebrew: chassid, those who tremble at God's word) are given the high praises of God and the two-edged sword of His word to execute written judgments on nations and rulers—not by creating judgments themselves, but by proclaiming what God has already written in Scripture.

Prince stresses that proclamation, empowered by the breath of the Holy Spirit joined with the Word, releases God's authority into personal, national and international situations—just as Moses himself had to stretch out the rod rather than wait for God to act for him. He shares a personal example from Jeremiah 29:11 ("I know the plans I have for you... plans of good and not of evil... to give you a future and a hope"), describing how he and his wife Ruth regularly personalise and repeatedly proclaim scriptures—sometimes shouted in faith—to overturn negative thinking and release God's promises into everyday life.
