Jesus really understands your life...

He knows what we’re going through, understands the heartbreaks we face, and was tested like we are.

The Book of Luke is the newest course now available from the School of Miracles. It is filled with so many examples of Jesus in the midst of the real, everyday nitty-gritty of life people face. Jesus depended on the Word of God, walked in faith, and was led by the Holy Spirit. He is THE example for an overcoming, fruitful life. And as we follow Him, we can be overcomers in life too.

This Class Changed My Life I had been aggressively seeking the Lord for His will in my life, and He led me to the Richard Roberts School of Miracles. I enrolled in the online classes right away and started “The Healing Ministry of Jesus.” God has done miracle after miracle in my life since that day. The Lord instructed me to start a little Bible study in my own backyard and invite some family members whom I had been praying for and believing God for their salvation. It was such a joy to put together the lessons—mostly coming from Richard’s “Holy Spirit” class. Well, through that little Bible study, I had four beloved family members give their hearts to Jesus. Praise God! –Sonja from Virginia

Healing experienced after the Miracle Tour

Migraine healed during Richard’s Live Call

I attended Richard’s Miracle Healing Tour meetings in Florida in faith, believing for my miracle.

Now, there’s no more pain in my feet and I have no more trouble breathing. God has touched me.

—John from Florida Click here to go to our facebook page.

Hi, Richard. I was on your Saturday, February 27 Live Phone Call, and you were praying for eyes and ears, and then for migraines. I held my hands in the air, called out to God, and felt His healing power! I cried uncontrollably as I thanked God for my healing. The week earlier, I’d been in urgent care for the migraines. God healed me! I am so thankful for your ministry.

Pain leaves while watching The Place for Miracles!

Powerful prayer coming out of the Abundant LIfe Prayer Group!

I was in a lot of pain and very sore from lifting weights and shoveling snow. Then I tuned in to The Place for Miracles. That day, while Richard was praying for people’s healing, I put my hands on the TV as a point of contact.

Immediately, I felt warmth flow into my hand, arm, shoulder, and down to my hips. All the pain and soreness left me, and I felt ten years younger. I also hadn’t been able to see clearly

My grandmother went to the doctor today. There’s not a trace of the cancer in her ovaries, and her numbers are where they are supposed to be.

Thank you, Abundant Life Prayer Group, for praying in agreement with me, and thank You, Jesus!

BY RICHARD ROBER TS

(Actual size: 9.25” x 5.25”)

A global plan to reach people, equip leaders, and demonstrate the power of the Holy Spirit.

6

3 billion

Of the 7.2 bilion people alive today, an estimated have little or no access to the Gospel. We have a plan to begin to reach them.

I

don’t remember a time when I was more excited than I am right now! The Lord has been speaking to me about John 14:12, which says, Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and GREATER WORKS than these he will do, because I go to My Father.

Our World Needs the Greater Works

There is so much more to do to expand God’s kingdom before the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. And there’s a burning passion in my heart to see people receive Christ and to bring the saving, healing, delivering power of God to people all over this world.

That’s why I’m announcing the Greater Works Campaign…a plan God has given me to reach the hardest places on earth to share the Gospel…and also to help you share the Gospel with those you love.

When Jesus walked this earth, He was anointed with the power of the Holy Spirit to bring salvation, healing and deliverance to the people. He transferred that anointing and power first to His 12 disciples, then to 70 believers, then to 120 in the Upper Room on the Day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit was poured out ( John 17; Acts 2).

And since then, the Gospel and its power have been transferred to countless millions of Christian believers all over the world.

We Need to Reach the Hard Places As believers in Jesus Christ, we have access to the same Holy Spirit that came upon the 120 in Acts chapter 2. As Christians, we are called to go into all the world and make

disciples. To do that, we must go into every person’s world. We must go where people need to hear the Gospel.

We want to bring God’s Word to hard to reach places, like China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, and parts of Africa and Asia.

In many parts of the world, pastors may be free to share the Gospel, but they may have had no formal training to help them meet the needs of their people.

We want to bring God’s Word to hard to reach places, like China, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, and parts of Africa and Asia.

And in many places in the world they have no access to the Internet. These men and women desperately need support from the Body of Christ.

7

We can help reach the world for Christ by

equipping pastors & leaders

who have limited resources

•

Christian pastors and leaders worldwide have a tremendous zeal to serve the Lord, but many are not trained and equipped. According to sources like Global Action, an estimated 62–85% of pastors and ministry leaders worldwide have never had formal Bible or ministry training.

•

There are many people in the body of Christ who love God and desire His best for their lives, but have never been taught the full Gospel of salvation, healing, deliverance and the Holy Spirit’s work in the daily life of the believer.

•

Many pastors, teachers, and leaders in third world nations do not have access to high speed Internet and do not have the computer equipment needed to access online training.

• The Internet is being restricted and monitored in some countries, making it impossible for Christians there to learn Gospel truths online.

• We are rapidly approaching the end times as recorded in the Bible. Now more than ever, we need to get the Gospel message out to the neediest populations. This ministry tool can increase the effectiveness of those who have dedicated their lives to God.

The Vision

8

•

To make powerful Bible-based resources including the School of Miracles and over 70 years of the Oral Roberts Ministries materials available to pastors and church leaders worldwide in their own language.

•

To use and distribute the latest in portable, standalone, easy-touse, fully-programmed, FREE DIGITAL TABLETS that contain these training resources from the Oral Roberts Ministries. (Computer and Internet not needed, only electrical outlet for recharging.)

62-85% of pastors and ministry

leaders worldwide have never had formal Bible or ministry training.

A Tool to Help Believers Worldwide The Greater Works Campaign is part of the solution to this challenge, and I’m so excited about it!

Right now, the Oral Roberts Ministries is developing a nine-inch Greater Works tablet that doesn’t require Internet access. It will have multiple microchips loaded with the vast resources this ministry has produced….close to 70 years of Bible-based books, videos, CDs, DVDs, sermon notes, and other teaching materials that can bless Christians in underdeveloped countries, rural areas that are hard to reach, and hotspots where the Gospel is not easily shared.

We’re also translating these ministry materials from English into the other top 10 languages in the world…

Mandarin, Spanish, Hindu/Urdu, Arabic, French, Indonesian/Malay, Portuguese, Bengali, Russian and Japanese. This has the potential to reach nearly 5.3 billion people—nearly 75% of the world’s population.

That’s just the first part of the Greater Works Campaign.

The other part is all about you, because you also have a part to play in expanding God’s kingdom and helping bring others to the feet of Jesus...

Join the Greater Works Campaign today by making a pledge of $30, $50, or $100 a month to help us get these tablets, full of powerful Bible teaching, into the hands of ministry leaders where people are desperate to hear the lifechanging Gospel.

Now...what about you?

You Can Do the Greater Works in Your Personal World…

Perhaps you’re thinking, “How can I do that? I’m not a minister. I’ve never prayed for anyone and seen them healed. I don’t know how to witness or pray for others.”

If that describes you, you’re not alone. Many believers don’t know how to pray for the sick and expect God to heal them. Many are intimidated or afraid to do it.

But God has not given you a spirit of fear. He desires for you to live with power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Every Christian can be part of fulfilling the Great Commission as they obey God in doing whatever He desires them to do. That may be simply sharing Jesus with others, praying for people, or being a light in their communiity as God leads. I want to help teach you how you can do that!

As part of the Greater Works Campaign, we’re building an exclusive donor website called GreaterWorks.Online with the same resources that we’ll be giving to church leaders in underdeveloped nations.

Through this online resource, you can learn God’s promises to you. You can discover the authority God gave you to pray and expect answers. You can grow in practical knowledge of how to be led by God to witness to people and help them receive salvation, healing and deliverance.

10

I believe this is one of the greatest outreaches the Oral Roberts Ministries has ever done.

You can make the difference that affects people for eternity

I believe Jesus is coming soon, and we have to share His Word with as many people as we can. There’s an end time harvest of souls and there’s no limit to where God’s saving, healing, delivering power can go…who it can reach…and what it can do! All things are possible with God!

And this gospel of

The Greater Works Campaign is about making a godly difference in our world through the power we have been given in Jesus Christ. Now, to make the Greater Works Campaign successful, we need your help.

as a testimony to

I believe this is one of the greatest outreaches the Oral Roberts Ministries has ever done…and this is good ground to sow your seed! The Bible says when you give, you have a Bible right to expect God to use it for His glory and then multiply it back to you—good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over (Luke 6:38).

The GREATER WORKS in the

Everydayness of

B Y L I ND S AY ROBE R T S

I believe the Lord would have believers take the Gospel into the everydayness of their life.

M

y mother-in-law, Evelyn Roberts, had a saying I will always remember. She said God talked to her in the everydayness of life. She came to this revelation after talking with the Lord about how her husband, Oral, got to go all over the world in ministry while she stayed home.You see, she always wanted to be a missionary, yet Oral was the one who got to travel.

family member or a neighbor. We can take the Gospel into the local hospital, our apartment building or street, or wherever God tells us to go.

The Lord said to her, “No, Evelyn, you don’t go like Oral goes, but I will speak to you in the everydayness of life. And you will take what I say into your day-to-day activities.”

The Oral Roberts Ministries started in 1947, and over the years, Oral created an amazing volume of books, Bible commentaries, sermons, teaching notes, and so much more. And before he went home to be with the Lord, he told Richard and me to get as much of these resources as possible into the hands of people, to get the Gospel around the world.

That word set Evelyn free! She would take the Gospel and her faith to the grocery store. She would take it to the front door, the telephone, and the post office. She became a little missionary in her community and never stopped taking the Gospel everywhere she went.

I believe we all have a place to be sent. It may be to a

18

Part of our Greater Works Campaign includes helping believers to take the Gospel into their communities. We want to share the same materials with you that we are sharing with ministers in undeveloped nations through our Greater Works tablet.

As I began to look at everything Oral, Evelyn, Richard and I created over the years, I realized we couldn’t keep it just to ourselves. These resources are so powerful in

the Word! They contain biblical teachings that can continue to set people free until the Lord comes.

Sometimes I’m on television, sometimes I’m at home, sometimes I’m at the grocery store, and sometimes I’m in another country. So why would I want to talk about the Greater Works in your everyday life? Because I feel that it is not about where we go or what we do. I believe it’s about obedience. It all comes down to obeying God in the big things, the small things, and the everydayness of life.

I see people who are in need of miracles and believe that God wants believers in some way to be His hand and His heart extended to reach others in need in the everydayness of their life. And just as I feel so passionate about this, I want you to read what happened when an Oral Roberts Ministries Partner named Virginia, in the everydayness of her life, took these biblical teachings and how God led her to minister in the everydayness of her life.

Take your seat!

I believe God is no respecter of persons and what happened to Virginia can happen to anyone who is willing to be led

by God.

Sharing Jesus in our everyday lives isn't something reserved just for ministers!

Every Christian is called and empowered through the Holy Spirit to reach others with the Good News that Jesus saves, heals, delivers, and restores! Here’s a real life story from a partner who stepped out in faith right where she lives...and did the Greater Works!

Compelled by the Holy Spirit I heard a radio commercial advertising “The Healing Ministry of Jesus,” a class at the Richard Roberts School of Miracles. I’m so thankful I attended the class. As I studied, I was compelled by the Holy Spirit to minister to people in various ways that I had not done previously.

The Bible tells us that we are seated with Christ in heavenly places. And that means you can have God’s power available to you every day, in any situation you may face.

An elderly lady named Nellie lived in our building, and she was not a Christian. I had the opportunity to lead her to Christ, and she prayed the sinner’s prayer with me. When Nellie became very ill, I felt the Lord leading me to pray with her, which I did. She passed away in the night, and I am positive that she is in heaven now!

–Virginia Covington, Oklahoma Lindsay Roberts brings encouragement to discover the biblical authority that God’s Word says we have. We can stand in faith against sickness, lack, fear, and anything else the devil may throw our way.

Doing the GREATER WORKS Today!

A CL ASSIC MESSAGE BY ORAL ROBERTS

I

n John chapter 14, we see Jesus Christ in the upper room at the Last Supper, the night before He is crucified. He tells His disciples that He must go to the Cross and that He will be taken from them. No longer will He dwell with them in His physical body. He would ascend into heaven, and they would no longer see Him in the flesh.

The disciples were stunned. You see, they had built their lives around Him. These men left their jobs and their businesses and gave up everything to follow Jesus.

As they walked with Him and listened to Him, they came to love Him. They came to trust in Him implicitly so that when He said, “I want you to heal the sick,” they had all the confidence in the world that they could do it. They could do it because He said to do it.

And because He was there, they knew that they could fall back on Him and that He would come and do it. So the physical presence of Jesus was the center of all their belief and activity.

But at the Last Supper, Jesus suddenly announced, “I must go away.” Can you imagine how the disciples must have felt? They must have been afraid that everything would fall apart. How could they do the great things He was doing?

Jesus anticipated their fears and He said, “Those who believe in Me shall do

the works that I do. And GREATER WORKS than these shall you do because I go to My Father (John 14:12).”

There is to be no interruption of the mighty works of God. Here, Jesus was saying that the miracles He did—those mighty works—would not stop when He went to be with the Father. Miracles would not cease or stop or perish from the earth. “They will continue,” Jesus told His disciples, “because YOU shall do them, and you’ll even do greater works.”

How could this be? It’s because when Jesus went to be with the Father, He sent to us “another Comforter”—the Holy Spirit (John 14:16). “Another” means exactly alike—no difference.

Jesus told His disciples, “I have to go away, but I’m sending you the Holy Spirit. He’s just like me. And He will abide with you forever, so you’re better off. You know Him and the Holy Spirit dwells with you now, but He shall be in you.”

Do you realize that when Christ was in the flesh, He could only be at one place at one time? But once Jesus was ready to go to the Cross, He said, “It is better for you now that I’m sending you the Holy Spirit, because He will be in you and He’s exactly like I am. I won’t be there in this body, so I won’t have to confine myself to one activity or to one place on earth at a time. When I go to Heaven, the Holy Spirit can be right in your hearts. The Holy Spirit can be 21

“And GREATER WORKS than these shall you do because I go to My Father ” (John 14:12).

There is to be no interruption of the mighty works of God. there with all of the power that I am to you now.

“And it will be just like it was when I was with you in the flesh, with one exception. You’ll do greater works.

You’ll have more, do more, and be able to accomplish greater things because the Holy Spirit in you will reproduce My life, My power and ability. I will be right there by your side as you do it in My power and ability.”

In 1947 I came into this knowledge about the Holy Spirit. I wanted to bring salvation, healing, and deliverance to my generation, but I knew I could not do it within myself. I said to the Lord, “If I lived in Your day, I could do that. Or if You came back in the flesh and walked with me, I could do it.”

He said to me, “Do you have the Holy Spirit? Have you been baptized with the Holy Ghost and fire?”

I said, “Yes.” He said, “You have everything with you now that you’re asking for. Everything I was to My disciples 2,000 years ago, I am to you now by My victory through the cross.”

When I realized the Holy Spirit in my life was bringing me the same power as the physical presence of Christ, I said, “Lord, I now believe I can do it.” Oh, how precious the Holy Spirit is. It’s through His power that I have ministered and brought God’s saving, healing, delivering power to the people.

It was the same for Jesus’ disciples. You see, the first thing they did after receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit was to witness and win 3,000 souls to Christ in one day. Christ had never done that. He left not more than 500 disciples after three years of hard work. The disciples won 3,000 souls in one day.

Jesus said, “Greater things shall ye do,” and the disciples did greater things. When Jesus was with these men in the flesh, they were able to do mighty works. Now after the day of Pentecost, they were able to do these very same works, except do them a great deal better.

Through the power of the Holy Spirit, the miracleworking power of Christ was in these first disciples. The Holy Spirit brought Jesus to them in a new way, and it was much better. They could do more.

And so can we, because God is not a respecter of persons. What He did through the disciples, He can do through you and me. Yes, we’re doing greater things today, because some of the things done today were not done in Jesus’ day. We can reach millions through television and other means and bring them to Jesus in a way that Jesus could not, because He was limited by being in one place at one time.

The miracles that have happened through the Oral Roberts Ministries have happened because the Holy Spirit does them. He saves these souls and heals these bodies even today!

“Have you ever felt like all hell had broken loose in your life? I tell you, this book by Richard Roberts—When All Hell Breaks Loose—can not only help you to stand, but get the victory and the miracles that Jesus has for you.

Now, I have known Richard and Lindsay very well for a long time, and I have seen them be victorious.

This is a book you need!

And don’t just get one. Get another one for a friend, and give it as a gift.”

—Marilyn Hickey, Marilyn Hickey Ministries

“...the Bible never says that once we’ve become a Christian, life is going to be perfect. And Richard has taken the instruction manual—[that God has given us]...on how to process this, and he’s boiled it down into the easiest way to understand what we’re going through and how to find hope and healing in this very lost and hurting world. So I recommend it highly...I want to say congratulations, Dr. Richard Roberts, on a job well done.”

—Paul Crouch Jr.

“We salute and congratulate our good friend, Dr. Richard Roberts, on the release of his book, When All Hell Breaks Loose. This book is filled with strategies to counterattack the various challenges and pitfalls that occur in life. In a day where spiritual assaults are escalating, we need divine wisdom and the Word of God in order to stand firm on the promises of God. This book encourages you to stand firm in faith and expect a miraculous turnaround.”

—Drs. Curt & Linda Stennis, Salvation & Deliverance Ministries International

God’s calling on Oral Roberts Ministries

The Greater Works Campaign reaches around the world! And through it, the Oral Roberts Ministries can touch many people with the same message of salvation, healing, deliverance and restoration through Jesus Christ that Richard preaches wherever he goes. The goal: to train up ministers who can take the anointing and power of God to their world, just as Richard Roberts and the Oral Roberts Ministries is doing!

1947 Nearly 70 years ago, God spoke to a young man dying of tuberculosis… a man named Oral Roberts.

When God healed that young man, He charged him to take God’s healing power to his generation, and to go share the Gospel in places where His voice is small and His power is not yet known.

Viewers called in to report healings wihile watching Richard on Sid Roth’s “That’s Supernatural” program. Vashti from Jacksonville, Florida said the pain in her right arm was healed. Ruth from Belfast, Ireland said she was believing for healing from migraines and has not had one since the show!

Richard also appeared as a guest on TBN hosted by Sid Roth.

2016 Richard Roberts began working with his father at the age of 19. He has continued the mission of Oral Roberts Ministries to reach the world with God’s saving, healing, and delivering power.

By expanding the ministry’s global outreach through digital tools and technology, Richard believes we can reach even more people for Jesus Christ by training and mentoring pastors and church leaders with Bible-based training resources from the Oral Roberts Ministries.
