Mr. Peggy Joyce Ruth

by Pastor Jack Ruth

Every Sunday, Pastor Jack would say, “If you will grab hold of this message, it will change your life,” and we can all vouch that it did. Pastor Jack Ruth, or Pastor Jack, as we called him, and Peggy Joyce started Living Word Church in Brownwood, Texas. They pastored together from the '80s to “retirement” in the early 2000s. Jack’s childlike faith set the vision and foundation for the church and the Psalm 91 ministry that followed. At one of the recordings with Sid Roth where Peggy Joyce was to speak, Jack simply introduced himself as Mr. Peggy Joyce Ruth. Everyone burst into laughter. In honor of "Mr. Peggy Joyce Ruth" we hope his teachings bless your life as much as they have ours.

Episodes

  1. What the Enemy Meant for Evil God Will Turn For Good - March 1997

    If we trust God and believe that whatever the enemy has meant to cause evil, God will turn and work it for good, you can never lose. Everything Satan tries to tear you down with can be used to bring his kingdom down. David cut the head off Goliath with the very sword that was intended to destroy...

  2. Do You Believe Enough to Expect a Miracle? - November 1996

    Most people have never been taught to believe for miracles. But miracles are simple. Just believe God's Word. If God's Word says it, believe it. It doesn't require a ritual or a bunch of religious steps to see a miracle. It's not a feeling. You don't feel faith. Faith is a choice. It's simply a...

  3. Vision for Giving - December 1996

    Don't lose the vision of giving. It is God's nature to give. Vision is from God. Fantasy is one step before failure. The most important thing about giving is our attitude when we give. It is important to expect when we give. When we give, we give to get, and then to give again. But if we give and...

  4. Judas Iscariot - October 1997

    Was Judas evil from the beginning? Judas walked in the same authority as the other disciples. He seemed to walk by faith like all the other disciples. At the Last Supper, none of the disciples knew Judas was any different than them. So what was the difference? Even though Judas had been given...

  5. Seeking the Will of the Father - November 1996

    We tend to seek to please men instead of seeking to please the Father. Jesus did not seek glory from men but from the Father, so that He could bring glory to the Father. Do you receive from God just for your own personal gain or to bring glory to the Father?

  6. Pentecost - May 1997

    If you are a Christian without power, you have already lost the battle. We need the Holy Spirit to come alive in us as Believers. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth....

  7. A Glimpse Into Living Word Church - March 1997

    God wants to use your life to fulfill His dreams. It is His Word and His presence that keep everything working around us. When we worship, miracles and provision simply happen in God's presence. God has given us the capacity to be the best lovers in the world. It is out of our love for the Father...

  8. Marriage Covenant - November 1997

    Are you praying for the best marriage in the world? God just might give it to you. As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. - Proverbs 27:17. There is something added when different personalities come together. God causes the differences in men and women to sharpen one another. Even...

  9. Multitudes - October 1996

    If we have to see to believe, we already have a huge problem. Strangely, seeing miracles does not cause you to believe God. It is the Word that brings us to believe. You cannot build on signs and wonders alone, but if you build on the Word, the signs and wonders will follow.

  10. Windshield or Bug? - November 1996

    In this fallen world, we have the right to give up when we fall, but we are not citizens of this world. In God's kingdom, when we fall, we have the right to get back up, and we have God's help in getting back up. Pity parties are not allowed in the kingdom of God. We have the privilege of getting...

  11. Secret Truth Revealed - February 1998

    God's Word is what makes the world make sense. There are things hidden in the scriptures since the foundation of the world. The things that were hidden are now being revealed. It's not what man says but what God's Word says that will get us through these days. The more Word we get working in us,...

  12. What The Word Believe Means - January 1998

    The word believe means more than just believing that God exists. Believe means to release faith in Jesus. We learn to release faith in all that Jesus is and what He came to do on this earth. When we believe and come under His authority, we now walk in authority. There is no authority in our own...

  13. Are You Spoiled? - March 1997

    We are living in a spoiled generation. Kingdom living has a price to pay. When our comfort zone takes priority over the kingdom of God, we have a problem. When you grow up in comfort, you lack the strength it takes to resist temptation and the strength it takes to have a successful life. We need…

  14. Resurrection Sunday - March 1996

    Resurrection from the dead is what makes Christianity the truth. Every other religion has a dead leader. Jesus Christ is the only one who was raised from the dead.

  15. God Still Speaks - December 1997

    There is nothing better than hearing from God. God finishes everything He starts. He is entirely faithful. But it is important that when God is speaking, we are fully listening and fully obeying. 95% obedience won't cut it. Full obedience brings full results. We must get rid of any rebellion in…

  16. God Doesn't Always Do - December 1997

    God does always do the way we do. We would have our child born in the best hospital, God had His born in a manger. We would send our children to the best schools in the land, God trained His Son in a carpenter's shop and in the wilderness. What we would do and what God wants to do are often very...

  17. Letting God's Word Be - February 1997

    God called everything into being through His Words. When God created the earth, He said, "Let there be." By what we speak, we let things be and become in our lives. If we speak and believe negatively, we are letting the enemy be in our lives. But when we are speaking and coming into agreement…

  18. Preparing For Revival - January 1997

    How do you prepare for revival? When we are faithful in the small things God has given us to steward, God brings the increase. In the gospels, God entrusted more to the servants who were faithful with the talents He gave them. He cast out the one who did nothing with what he was given. When we...

  19. The History and Future of Israel - July 1996

    Our heritage as Christians and our future are wrapped up in the nation of Israel. The Jewish Nation carries with it a blessing but much of the current hatred toward the Jews dates back to writings from the early 1900s. Those writings were used to brainwash concentration camp soldiers, and those...

  20. Our Authority Comes From Speaking HIs Word - June 1997

    We cannot lose unless we give up. Our words cause us either to give up or to overcome in life. The children of Israel brought back bad words after spying out the Promise Land. It cost them 40 years. How much have our negative words cost us? We must remove evil reports from our vocabulary and put...

  21. Why Receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit - June 1998

    Are we going to choose the high road or the low road? People ask, "Why would I receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit? I received the Holy Spirit when I was saved." And you did. It is impossible to get saved without the Holy Spirit, but there are two experiences. Jesus breathed on His disciples…

  22. Robbed of Blessings - September 1996

    Many people are robbed of God's blessing because they lack an understanding of what God has for them. The law of sowing and reaping governs all other laws. The more we give in any area of life, the more we will increase. The more we hoard back, the more we fall into poverty. If you are only…

  23. There is a God - July 1996

    Psalms 14:1 says, "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God,'" and Romans 1:18-19 says, "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness because that which is known about God is evident within…

  24. God's Gift of a Name - Father's Day 1996

    God cares about His name, and we should as well. Your name has great meaning and importance attached to it. A good name is to be more desired than great wealth. - Proverbs 22:1. Our reputation creates the name we pass on to our family and future generations. We should work to ensure our name is a...

  25. No Small Miracles - August 1996

    From the story of Naaman: To see a miracle, God must be our source, the Word of God must be our final authority, we must become a joyful giver, we need to expect a miracle, and we must do spiritual warfare to get rid of Satan.

  26. Exercising Spiritual Authority - May 1997

    We must understand the power we have over the enemy. If we don't understand our spiritual authority the devil will beat up on us, but if we know our authority we can send him running. When Jesus walked the earth He prayed all night long and then commanded all day long. We are to do the same with...

  27. Growing In Faith And Hearing God - November 1996

    The world’s logic seems right because most people operate from it. But when we are led by logic or the facts, it is always the fact we don't know that messes everything up. That is why we must grow in faith and be led by the voice of the Lord. God has seen the end from the beginning, and His…

    more
  28. Discouragement - January 1997

    Discouragement is the enemy's last attempt before the miracles come. When God is missing and nowhere to be seen in our lives we must go back to the last place we heard Him. Mary's faith brought her back to the tomb even though Jesus had died. And because of her faith, she was the first to not…

  29. Expect Miracles - September 1996

    If we don't have miracles we are in dead duck in water. But as believers, we can expect God to do miracles. His calling card is still miracles. People were drawn to Jesus because of the miracles and people should be drawn to us for the same reason. It is our relationship with God and our…

  30. How To Prepare For Tough Times - May 1996

    Right now every believer is in a battle. Are you prepared for it? We are not facing normal battles anymore but God has a plan for the times we are living in. God told Joshua to be bold and to be courageous. When the whole world is shaking courage is a command from God.

  31. How To Get Out Of Depression - November 1997

    Do you know you are called by God? Have you searched the Word to find your purpose from God? When you are called by God the enemy will try to get you into despair and away from your assignment. But "Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations..." Despite...

  32. A Time To Pray And A Time To Command - September 1996

    Many Christians are discouraged when they feel like God is not answering their prayers. But is God really not answering or are we missing something? There is a time to pray and a time to command. When Jesus encountered a problem He wasn't asking God what His will was. He already knew what God's...

  33. The Seed of God In You - Christmas 1997

    Planted on the inside of everyone who is born again is the incorruptible seed of God. Because of God's seed, we have the potential for everything that Jesus is in our Spirit man. This reality is difficult to grasp but will change your life forever.

  34. Facing Giants - March 12, 1997

    Are you facing the giants right in front of you? A message from Pastor Jack on March 12, 1997. When we are faithful with the little God has given us, it won't be long before we face a giant meant to take us, our family, and even our fellow countrymen out. When that moment comes, we can either...
