The Patience of Daniel — God blesses those who are willing to wait for Him and not take matters into their own hands. How impatient we are to get ahead of God. Daniel waited before the Lord. He was a man of great patience and God blessed him for it. Patience before the Lord is not easy, but it reaps great rewards. (Tape 1 of 4 from Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship, Bradenton, Florida — January 1974)
God Blesses our Specific Prayers — Our specific prayers are often answered by God, not by God increasing our indulgences, but by Him reducing our neediness. God knows the intent of our heart. He knows if we are praying with a greedy heart or if we are really planning to follow through on our commitments to Him, to love Him and obey His commandments. (Tape 2 of 4 from Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship, Bradenton, Florida — January 1974)
They Left Their Nets — We cannot bypass the foundational elements of what Jesus taught us simply because they seem hard. Jesus said we should love the Lord thy God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. We must have our feet planted on the rock of Jesus Christ and put into practice the words and commands He gave us. (Tape 3 of 4 from Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship, Bradenton, Florida — January 1974)
(part 1)
(part 2)
The Lordship of Jesus — When you decide to follow Jesus, you voluntarily surrender the right to choose or the power to vary the consequences.

(Tape 4 of 4 from Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship, Bradenton, Florida — January 1974)
The Challenge of the Impossible — At a Full Gospel Business Men’s Fellowship retreat on Jekyll Island, Georgia, Jamie shares how the church, God’s people, must be ready and willing to move when God moves.

Dominion — It is God’s intention that His people rule this planet and that includes having dominion over Satan. Jesus came to restore to us the dominion we once had in the Garden, over all the things in and of this world. (Tape 2 of 5 from St. Giles Presbyterian, Charlotte, NC — 1974)

Talk About Tongues — God wants each of us to be empowered by the filling of his Holy Spirit, just as Jesus was. Jamie shares his testimony of his first experience with the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues. (Tape 5 of 5 from St. Giles Presbyterian, Charlotte, NC — 1974)
The New Wine — The scriptures tell us, in the last days, there will be an increasing polarization between the spiritual and the carnal.

(Non-denominational Conference on Charismatic Renewal, Kansas City — 1977)
When Your Prayers Go Unanswered — Jamie shares what we as Christians are to do when it turns out that God’s plans for our life are different from our hopes or our dreams for our life.

(National Catholic Charismatic Conference for Young People, Steubenville, Ohio — 1978)
The Person of God Our Father — Jamie teaches from his experiences with his own earthly father and relates how we, too, can have a close relationship with our heavenly Father. He goes on to teach that though we can be proud of our earthly heritage we can also be caught up in bondage to it. Instead, as Christians our new heritage is traced only to our Heavenly Father and we should be taking on His characteristics. (Piedmont Prayer Retreat, High Point, NC – October 21, 1978)
Guides to Successful Living – Jamie speaks at the “Jesus ’79” gathering in Orlando, Fla.

Staff of Authority — Using Moses as his example, Jamie teaches on taking the staff of authority and how we must hear God on a daily bases and not rely solely on ancient traditions for our direction. The Holy Spirit empowers us to take spiritual authority over every area of our life and that authority begins with self-discipline and obedience to God. (Jesus ’79 Festival, Orlando, Florida — Closing evening session — March 29, 1979)
Pulling up the Bitter Root — Speaking to a gathering in Phoenix, Jamie shares on the principle that if you are going to be effective as a Christian, you must have a clean heart, without bitterness toward anyone. If you have bitterness or forgiveness, God will give you the ability to forgive that person and pull up that bitter root which entangles you. (Phoenix, AZ — 1983)
Be A Witness — We are all called to give testimony as to what God has done in our lives. Not everyone is required to be an evangelists, but all Christians are called to testify to the goodness of God. He has placed you where you are in order to be a witness for Jesus, to testify what you have seen and share your experiences so others may know God as well. (Grace Baptist, High Point, NC., — February 22, 1983)
Homesick for God — Jamie speaks to a group at a Camp Farthest Out (CFO) in Wilmington, N.C. — Every Christian yearns for the courts of God, the things of God. Even though we have never been there, we are homesick for heaven because of our relationship with God the Father. (Wilmington, NC — May 4, 1984)
The Joy of Salvation — There won’t be any joy in our lives unless the originator of joy, the Holy Spirit, is living and functioning in us. Without the Joy of the Lord, all we do is present condemnation and self-righteousness to others. But a Spirit-filled person is an attractive person and people gravitate to them. It’s the joy-filled Christian that will attract people to Jesus and make them want to know Christ. (Liberty Church, Pensacola, Fla. — September 30, 1984)
Creative Conflicts — Jamie states that in the life of the Christian we live our life on three levels: the achieving mode, the relational mode, and the being or personal mode. God has designed our life for each of these levels, or modes, to be lived in balance with each other, and there is a danger if we live exclusively in one or the other. (Liberty Church, Pensacola, Florida — October 2, 1984)
Draw Near to Jesus — Jamie shares from his heart on some issues facing his home church in Florida. He then moves to discuss the importance of remaining transparent and being accountable to God. (Tape 1 of 2 from Eastside Foursquare Church, Bothell, Wash., May 1987)
Who is Unworthy to Minister — Jamie touches on the sensitive issue of what disqualifies a person from ministry. In 1987 several key Christian leaders were scandalized. Did the church react in a Godly way, or were we overly judgmental? Jamie touches on the issue of bitterness in our hearts as he teaches from Acts 8 and the story of Simon the Sorcerer. (Tape 2 of 2 from Eastside Foursquare Church, Bothell, Wash., May 1987)
Your Shadow Ministry — As you look back across your life you will likely recall people who have let their shadow fall on you. Because of them you are who you are today. As you use your giftings for the Lord’s service, your shadow is falling on untold numbers of others, and God is healing and blessing them, not because you have physically touched any of them, but because you are being obedient to Him. (New Orleans Women’s Aglow Conference, am session — November 1987)
God is Shaking His Church — God wants us to be able to stand firm in times of adversity. He doesn’t want us to be crushed. And if we get knocked down He doesn’t intend for us to stay down. In the kingdom of God there is no such thing as a knockout blow. God’s people are always able to rise above adversity and the way we do it is by having the Holy Spirit inside of us. (New Orleans Women’s Aglow Conference, pm session — November 1987)
Laughing at Life — Jamie gets personal with fellow pastors as well as with himself saying, “It’s time for Christians to come out of the closet and admit that we are just like everybody else and laugh at ourselves just a little bit.” Jamie’s stories are funny, but they make a point. Like the parables of Jesus, each story is with purpose, and a little bit of humor. (James Robison Evangelistic Association, Ft. Worth, TX — 1989) (Get the booklet based on this sermon here!)

The Cry of the Wild Goose — Jamie relates Kierkegaard’s story of barnyard geese and teaches on our need to be willing to have enough faith to leave the barnyard of tradition and fly with God, who has placed dreams of spiritual adventure in our hearts.

New Wineskins — Jamie concludes his time with Graceland Baptist Church by teaching that God is stretching His kingdom and He wants us, requires us, to be flexible enough to move with Him. He will not pour new wine into old wineskins. We must change, be filled with His Holy Spirit, in order to move with God. (Tape 4 of 4 in the series from Graceland Baptist Church, New Albany, Indiana — April 1990) (Get the book based on these tapes – A Spirit Led Life)
