GLORIA COPELAND: You know, you’re supposed to control the weather. I mean, Ken’s the primary weatherman at our house, but when he’s not there, I do it. You can even see what’s happening out there. It shows just like they have at the—like the news, I mean, he’s got the computers, got the current weather on it and all that for flying. So sometimes I’ll hear something, I’ll hear the thunder start and maybe he’ll still be asleep and I say, “Ken, you need to do something about this.” And knowing that—but you are the one that has authority over the weather. One day Ken and Pat Boone, we were in Hawaii at their house and they were sitting outside and there was a weather spout out over the ocean. And that’s like a tornado except it hits the water. And so they were sitting there and they just watched it, rebuked it, it never did anything. One day I was in the airplane in the back and my little brother was in the back with me and Ken was up front flying. And we were not in the weather cause we don’t fly bad weather. But we could see the weather over here. And I looked out the window and that tornado came down just like this —- down toward the ground and Ken said, “I rebuke you in the name of Jesus, you get back up there.” So this is how I learned how to talk to tornados, I saw this. And that tornado went whoop-whoop-whoop-whoop, even while I was watching them. My little brother was not a devout Christian at that time and that was really good for him to see. So you’re the weather man. You get out there or the weather woman, whichever it is, and you talk to that thing and you tell it you’re not coming here, I command you to dissipate and you get back up there in Jesus’ name. Glory to God. I won’t charge you extra for.—” (END)
