BRIAN: I’m like okay, God is doing something!

DONNA: More s’mores!

BRIAN: Exactly. And so my buddy Dave and I looked at him and I said you know if we investigate what God is doing, we can get in a lot of trouble! Or we could just kind of leave, you know? So we chose trouble! And I just asked the girl I said what’s God speaking to you? And she just kept speaking in tongues but the third time she says, “Oh, but the love of God for camp!” Just what I heard a week prior, in my apartment in the middle of the night! 

DONNA: Now this is a bit of a conservative camp, so they were really wanting this to stop.

BRIAN: Oh, absolutely! This was out of their paradigm! They were uncomfortable with this, right? What happened next is, Donna, it was incredible! The power of God started showing up! Kids started just manifesting! Demons were coming out! Kids were falling under the power of God and giving their lives to Christ! They were just coming out of the woodworks! Now, what was interesting though, some of the pastors were watching this and they were literally hiding behind trees and bushes!

DONNA: Oh no! [Laughing]

BRIAN: You know freaked out of their mind! One guy says hey listen, we got to stop the nonsense! Walks up to a girl. Grabs her and starts to pull her. She’s like completely out! And I’m like I don’t know what’s going on! This is God! You know? And the next thing I know is the pastors are calling me into their cabin saying we’ve got to talk about this! What did you bring to our camp? You know?    

DONNA: Oh my goodness! Let’s stop right there. We’re going to be back with more with Brian in just a minute. It looks like Brian’s maybe gotten himself in a little bit of a tough spot here! His passion [Music] to serve but yet He’s maybe getting in a little trouble with some leaders. So let’s find out what happens next in just a moment!  

[Music]

DONNA: Well welcome back to “Something More!” I’m here with Brian Blount and we’re talking a little bit about a bit of a tough spot that Brian found himself in! Brian?

BRIAN: Yeah! I was a little perplexed because here the presence of God had come and that’s how I came into the kingdom! And so I was a little confused why were they were so upset by what was happening? And so you know what I did I said – because they kept saying you know Brian, this has been really so much confusion, you know cause these kids are speaking in tongues. I don’t know if this could be God. This could be the devil. And I said well the only way they’re going to know this is God and you’re going to know it’s God is let’s open up the Word and let’s see what the Word says. They didn’t really like that answer so much, honestly.     

DONNA: Oh, no. Yeah. 

BRIAN: And so I got asked to leave the camp and it really put something, of pain in my heart because I was like God, this is what I want to do! What’s going on? 

DONNA: Uh-huh.

BRIAN: And so you know I found myself in this process of like wondering why the church didn’t want to receive the presence of God because this is how I encountered Jesus and I came into the kingdom.

DONNA: Uh-huh. But of course, you had hopes that not all churches and not everyone and not all denominations or groups or whatever had shared that same view.

BRIAN: Right.

DAVID: Well, I’m 31 today. And I remember I was saved at the age of 11. So just about 20 years walking with the Holy Spirit and he’s my closest friend. And I remember he was a friend to me in a season of life. Those awkward teenage years where you sense that rejection, everyone goes through a phase where they don’t feel like they quite belong. And I remember it was in the confusion of that season of my life, that the Holy Spirit showed himself to be my friend. And ever since then, we’ve been very close.

SID: If someone got ahold of your brand new book and your teaching CDs and devoured it and followed these secrets, you’ve been taught your whole life by the Holy Spirit, can they do everything you do? Everything?

DAVID: I believe that. And like your saying, anything I can do, you can do better.

SID: Right. Let’s leave it at that. Well, when we return, David, we’ll pray that the same intimacy he has with the Holy Spirit, you’re going to manifest it. You’re going to operate in it. Be right back.

SID: Now I know a lot of you when they, you see, someone’s going to talk about prayer. You kind of tune them out. You say, “That’s for people that are quote, intercessors.” And I do pray, but you get into a realm where it’s a delight.

DAVID: It’s no longer an obligation. It’s an opportunity when you move past the flesh. You can sing in church and not really have a fight put up by the flesh. Some people can read the scriptures and not really sense that fights. People can do ministry and charity and good deeds and that fight isn’t really put up. But the moment you begin to pray, the flesh starts to squirm and try to distract. Why? Because prayer is the death of the flesh. Prayer is how you weaken that side of your nature. And really it is the flesh.

SID: I know one friend of mine that says, “Flesh, you stop it.” He’ll talk to his flesh. “You surrender flesh. You’re done.” He starts praying in tongues.

DAVID: And that’s one of the keys to really finding this breakthrough, that oneness with the spirit, because anything that strengthens my spirit weakens my flesh. Philippians chapter four, verses six through seven, says, “Don’t worry about anything, pray about everything, tell God what you need, while thanking him for what he’s done.” Here’s really one of the keys to seeing that prayer go from that discipline or that sense of obligation to finding that flow. I like to say that every shovel is full of dirt before you hit the water when digging a well. And prayer is like that when I’m digging for that wellspring, I have to uncover those layers of dirt or the flesh. And so when you present your needs to God says, don’t worry about anything. Worry is the flesh’s powerless counterfeit for prayer. And when I pray, I’m talking in faith.

SID: Wow that is so profound. You got to say that again. Look in the camera.

DAVID: Worry is the flesh’s powerless counterfeit for prayer. When I’m worrying, I’m praying really in the flesh. And so what you do is you approach God. And here’s the thing, you approach God, you give him all those things that are weighing on your mind, responsibilities, family, ministry, all those things that I call inner chaos. And it’s like trying to ascend the mountain of glory while wearing a backpack. You want to put that off before you begin to climb. So when I present my requests to God and leave those in his hands, the Bible says, “Then the peace fills my heart.” Now here’s the mistake many believers make. Once they receive that peace from having unburdened themselves from all of the responsibilities of this world, then they say, “Oh, I sense that peace. Thank you, Lord, I’ll see you later.” And then they leave. But the peace that God gives you after the prayer request is not the end of the journey, peace is the beginning. The Holy Spirit wants to take you into the depths of the spirit, but he waits for you at the gate of peace.

KATIE: I said to her, I said, “Well, I just saw myself doing something kind of violent to you. Are you okay with that?” She goes, “Yes. I came here to get healed.” I’m like, “All right.” So I grabbed her.

Come out, death! Come out, death! Come out, death! Come out, death!

I shook her violently, while commanding the spirit of death to come out. She goes down for the count on the ground. I’m thinking, “Oh, my God, I hurt her. I hurt her.” She’s bawling. I’m like, “Oh, my.” Now I’m decreeing, “Life, life. Be filled with life, every organ, every part of your body.”

She finally stops crying. I go, “Okay, what happened?” She doesn’t look at me. She looks at her daughter and says, “Did you see that?” Her daughter goes, “No. What?” She goes, “That big black puff of smoke that came out of me.” Her daughter looks at me, and I’m like, “You just got delivered of the spirit of death.”

She leaves. The next day, I’m up on stage. I get back down, and a beautiful, polished looking woman, perfectly coiffed hair, makeup, walks up to me and says, “Hi.” I go, “Marilyn?”

She looked completely different, Sid. She said, “I woke up this morning. I could get myself ready. I drove us all here to the church.” She said, “I walked faster across the parking lot than all my family.” She goes, “I stood and opened the door for every single person going into the church this morning, going, ‘Look, I couldn’t do this before. Look, I couldn’t do this before.'” She said, “I stood up in front and danced wildly during worship. You didn’t even recognize me. I was right in front of you, Katie.” I’m like, “Oh, my God.” She goes, “I ate all my lunch.” She was completely healed.

Then I saw her again six months later. Her husband came up on stage with her. He’s bawling, saying, “I thought I was going to lose my wife. I knew she was healed the moment she called me that night. She didn’t even tell me. She just said, ‘Hello, darling.'” She was totally healed and has been healed since.

SID: Something you touched on, worship.

KATIE: Yes.

SID: Talk a little … That’s so important. Talk a little bit about that.

KATIE: Well, Caleb was an 85-year-old in a 45-year-old’s body, because he was from the tribe of Judah, which means praise. I believe he praised his way through his life.

This is important. The Bible talks about worship being able to remove spirits in our life. You know in the scripture that says that we wrestle not with flesh and blood, but against powers, rulers, principalities? That we wrestle there means to vibrate. The way we wrestle, even with the spirit of death and other principalities and powers, is to vibrate, is to worship. Even when you sing, you can put your hand on your throat or your chest, you can feel your body vibrating.

SID: How do you worship?

KATIE: You know what? I worship in many different ways, but I like to first open my mouth and sing.

SID: Someone that’s not a worshiper, give them some quick practical advice.

KATIE: Okay. They need to find a song they love, that just touches their heart. Turn it on, and no matter how you sound, open your mouth and vibrate. Open your mouth and sing. Sing to the Lord, because that’s going to wrestle, shake off those demonic powers, including death.

Then after you do that, you feel the peace of the Lord come, then you can lay down and rest in that worship. You can begin to praise him out loud or praise him in tongues, your language, or just be quiet and still. Be still and know that I am God, that, scriptures say.

DONNA: And you teach people that God longs for relationships.

NATASHA: Yes. That’s true. You know this is, I think this is also a very important revelation, truth to remember. You know, usually, people come to God, even in the Gospels, people would come to Jesus because they were in need. They needed an answer.

DONNA: Yes. Yes.

NATASHA: And here we see Jesus who is, instead of immediately answering their need, start asking questions, start talking to them.

DONNA: Mm-hmm.

NATASHA: Now I think that Jesus knew that if He just answered their prayer they’ll be gone until the next need.

DONNA: Yes. Yes.

NATASHA: You know, like one preacher said that you know, you don’t give to a teenage boy a million dollars. You won’t see him for a long time.

DONNA: No. [laughs]

NATASHA: You know, so I think that’s why God wants us to keep coming, keep coming. But you know, but also, it’s because God’s purpose for every miracle, of every need that He meets, His highest purpose is relationship.

DONNA: Yes.

NATASHA: You know, we want to come to Jesus and get our healing, and then we go back to our life so often.

DONNA: Mmmm.

NATASHA: He wants us, after we get our healing, stay with Him. Everything that Jesus does, it’s with the highest purpose of relationship, friendship.

DONNA: Yes. Yes.

NATASHA: Just like it was in the Garden of Eden before the Fall. Because this is what Jesus, why He came on the earth, to bring us back to the same status and relationship that God shared with us before the Fall. 

DONNA: Yes.

NATASHA: So relationship is the final goal. And so, if you get your healing, if you get your answer today, if you believe in God for Him meeting your need, remember that His highest goal is that you could continue having a loving, intimate relationship with Him. He wants your friendship. You know, by maintaining close friendship and relationship with God we will avoid a lot of problems in the future. You know, we usually go from one problem to another. And then we’re on to Jesus.

DONNA: Mmmm. Right.

NATASHA: He says, “Stay with Me. Stay with Me.”

DONNA: That’s right.

NATASHA: Don’t just get your answer and then leave, living your life just like you lived before relying on your own strength.

DONNA: Right. Right.

NATASHA: Rely on Me every day. Let Me in your routine of life, in the minor things of life.

DONNA: Mmmm. You know, you move in miracles and in the supernatural now, but, three generations of Atheists, Communists — but four generations ago you had a Great Grandfather that had a miraculous, miraculous thing in his life. He was uneducated. He could not read. He could not write.

NATASHA: Um hmmm.

DONNA: But when he would gather his,

NATASHA: Eleven children

DONNA: Eleven children around on Sundays, and he would open that family Bible he could read the Scripture.

NATASHA: Right. Right. You know, the Bible, When my Grandmother told me this story before I became a Christian I thought it was something strange. And she probably was just making it up –

DONNA: [laughs]

NATASHA: It just was fiction.

DONNA: [laughs] She was old. Maybe she couldn’t –

NATASHA: Right. Exactly. And then, the first thing that the Holy Spirit reminded me when the day I was born again, that was the first thing that the Holy Spirit reminded me. He didn’t know the alphabet. If his neighbor would bring him a newspaper with the Stalin speech printed, he couldn’t read it. But every Sunday a miracle would take place.

DONNA: Wow.

NATASHA: He would open the Bible, point his finger, and would start reading.

DONNA: So you actually have a heritage of miracles.

NATASHA: Yes.

DONNA: It’s not like it just started for you, of course, when you became born again and started getting this teaching. But these seeds were passed along through the generations to you.

NATASHA: Um hmmm.

DONNA: I know we’re going to have to say goodbye. So, I just want to say to you. Thank you so much for watching this program every week with us, and our guests, like Natasha, that come and give of themselves, and pour out these wonderful, wonderful messages for us. [music] The faith that she speaks of, the relationship that she speaks of, this irresistible Jesus,

RON: And that’s because you have an assignment from God and you’re going to forget this junk today. So bow your head say Lord.

WOMAN #1: Lord.

RON: I thank You.

WOMAN #1: I thank You.

RON: That I’m forgiven.

WOMAN #1: That I’m forgiven.

RON: That I’m free.

WOMAN #1: That I’m free.

RON: Everything I’ve ever done.

WOMAN #1: Everything I’ve ever done.

RON: Or that’s been done to me.

WOMAN #1: Or that’s been done to me.

RON: Is gone!

WOMAN #1: Is gone!

RON: In the name of Jesus!

WOMAN #1:I n the name of Jesus!

RON: All right. Look at me. On the authority of the Word of God, Apostolic authority, I announce to you your sins are forgiven you and God will never remind you of them again. Now you say I forgive.

WOMAN #1: I forgive.

RON: Those that have hurt me.

WOMAN #1: Those that have hurt me.

RON: Now I’m going to anoint you with the oil of gladness and healing according to James 5. Is this okay?

WOMAN #1: Yes.

RON: Father, the anointing of joy. Lord, let her brow that has been furrowed by worry and fear leave! I say ah, get off her chest right now you lying devil. I say to the enemy now, um-huh, I come against a spirit of inferiority, to the lying voice that’s told her she’s nothing and nobody, that’s told her she’ll never catch up with where she’s supposed to be. You’re a liar. I restore her heritage right now and bring healing! I command the spirit of witchcraft to turn her loose right now in the name of Jesus! The tightness, the fear, I come against a spirit of fear. You leave! You obey me. Leave. Leave. Leave. I command insomnia, she hasn’t been able to sleep. I command insomnia to leave right now in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! And I declare Lord that you will make her to lie down in green pastures and lead her beside still waters. Lord, I command every relationship that she’s in that’s been destroying her even if she thinks it’s a friend that’s drug her down, that the enemy has used will be broken and you’ll bring the right friendships into her life. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth! Do you receive that?

WOMAN #1:I  do.

RON: Do you feel it?

WOMAN #1: I do.

RON: Put both hands up. Say Father.

WOMAN #1: Father.

RON: Dress me up.

WOMAN #1: Dress me up.

RON: In the garment of praise.

WOMAN #1:I n the garment of praise.

RON: I will be happy again! [laughing]

WOMAN #1: I will be happy again.

RON: I want some joy in my life.

WOMAN #1: I want some joy in my life.

RON: And I want some rest.

WOMAN #1: I want rest.

RON: Now I want you to look at me. Turn around. Don’t do anything. Just look. I want you to look at her face. Look. See the wrinkles gone?

AUDIENCE: CLAPPING]

RON: Go look in a mirror. The Lord’s touched you!

AUDIENCE: ! [CLAPPING] Glory to God!

RON: You see her face shining?

AUDIENCE: [CLAPPING] Hallelujah!

RON: But many of them have turned their back on Israel. But you need to remember Dr. King’s undying support of the nation Israel. If you can get his message Knock at Midnight he talks about that, it’s available, he talks about his support of Israel and his opposition to abortion, by the way. I haven’t got time to go there this afternoon. I’m not, that’s a rabbit I could chase and shoot but I’m not going to do it.

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]

RON: Latter Rain Movement Number Two started in 1948 with people like Oral Roberts, Billy Graham, Pastor Hagin and many others. There was just a huge revival, a healing revival and an evangelistic revival. Had those rivers ever really met we’d have a different nation than we have now. And also Dr. King came up during that very same time. Think of what would have happened if the social involvement of King, the evangelism of Billy Graham, and the anointing, charismatic anointing of Roberts had all meshed in the United States of America!

AUDIENCE: [CLAPPING]

RON: Latter Rain Movement Number Two started in 1948, went to the Six-Day War in ‘67. In 1948 what happened on May 15th? Israel took their land! And the Latter Rain always has something to do with Israel’s possession of the land. But there will be a third movement but before I go there I want to identify what the Latter Rain is. I don’t know about you but I’m tired of spiritual talk. What is the Latter Rain? By the way the Lord told me in the words of the old rock and roll song raindrops keep falling on your head.

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]

RON: I felt rain when I walked in here and I know there’s no leak in the ceiling. I believe we’re in an atmosphere.

AUDIENCE: !

RON: There’s a weather change.

AUDIENCE: Yes.

RON: There’s a glory cloud rising! Hallelujah!

AUDIENCE: Yeah! [CLAPPING]

RON: There’s some rain about, there will be showers of blessing!

AUDIENCE: Amen! [CLAPPING]

RON: We’re about to get into that Latter Rain and when I show you what I’m going to show you in a little bit you’re going to shout I hope if you got any shout in you! So I want to identify the Latter Rain. Now in Isaiah 55 this is where God says: Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters. You who have no money come, buy and eat. Come buy wine and milk without money without price and so forth. And then He says in that same Isaiah 55: Let the wicked forsake his ways, the unrighteous man his thought and let him return to the Lord. So he’s talking about a revival breaking out. But then He says, it’s the same place where He says: For My thoughts are not your thoughts. My ways are not your ways. Isaiah 55:8 and 9. And then he identifies the Latter Rain. I want you to know what the Latter Rain is. It’s not you doing a back flip over the pew. It’s not even your holy dance. And though I speak in tongues every day to strengthen my life it’s not your speaking in tongues. It’s not your jerk. I want you to know what it is so you’ll identify it because it may not come looking like you think it’s going to look. It may come with tattoos and a pair of blue jeans!

AUDIENCE: Oooh. That’s right. That’s right. Preach it!

I say angel, I release you to minister what Father God sent you to minister. So I want to say to those angels right now: Healing angels we release you to minister what Father God sent you to minister to the people who are here, to the people who are watching this that God will send these same angels right where you are, right into your room, wherever you may be as you’re listening the healing angels are coming and manifesting to bring a healing anointing from heaven to you. Receive it right now in the mighty name of Yeshua ha Mashiach! Amen and amen. Amen. You know there are some scriptures in the Bible that are just kinda hard to read but they’re important to read. In the Book of Deuteronomy, in— let’s see this is in—. chapter 28? (laughing) Moses is giving his farewell address to the people. And he’s been with Them all these years. They’re going to the Promised Land but he has to wait for Jesus to come into the Promised Land. So he said you know you have seen with your own eyes the miracles that God did in Egypt with Pharaoh and with all the people.

You saw the signs, the wonders, the miracles and on our journey you saw what God did. You’ve seen it with your own eyes He said. And yet God has not given you a heart to perceive, eyes to see, or ears to hear to this very day. And when I read that I thought how sad after all they’d seen. And then I thought “oooh,” what about us? We’ve seen healings, miracles, signs and wonders. Oooh! How wide open is our heart to perceive? How wide open are our eyes to see what God is doing? Are we having our ears open so that we can hear what Father God is saying? You know it’s not just about those people way back then. Their story was included in the Bible as a testimony for you and for me. They were kind of in a way representing human nature and we have a human nature. And God wants us to begin to see and to hear. You know Jesus talked about it a lot. He said you have eyes to see but you don’t see. You have ears to hear but you don’t hear! See it’s a condition that continues on and on but God says it’s time for a change! The prophet Joel said that God shared with him that in the Last Days I will pour out my spirit on all flesh. Now I want you to do a test for me if you would. Would you check and see if you have any flesh? Got any flesh?

AUDIENCE: (LAUGHTER)

JAMES: How many of you have got flesh? Then this is for you. All right? If you have flesh it’s for you! I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh. Men and women, right? And young people are going to see visions and older people are going to have dreams. Amen? Well I like that scripture because I still see visions and I think of myself as a young man of only 70 years so I’m going to just stay young and keep seeing those visions. And God wants us, every single one of us to begin to see the visions that He’s releasing. He wants us to have prophetic dreams. He wants us to see into the spirit realm. He wants us to see that heaven is open and it’s never been closed! And He wants to release things to you. Spiritual gifts, healing, signs, miracles and wonders and I tell you when heaven opens God does amazing things. For a season there over and over we encountered people that had fused vertebra in their spine. Different locations. But just in that atmosphere of God’s presence, nobody praying for Them, nobody laying hands on them, nobody put oil on them, but just suddenly all of the fusion went away and they had new vertebra. All the pain was gone and they had freedom of movement just when heaven was open and God came down. Whoawhoaa? Halle— Hahahaha!

SID: Larry, you teach on probably one of the most important questions in the Bible. What is that?

LARRY: Well, Jesus is walking with his disciples and as he’s walking, he turns and he says, “Who do men say that I am?” And then of course we know Peter says, “Well, some say you’re this, some say you’re that.” But then Jesus says the most important question, he said, “Who do you say that I am?” And Peter’s response is, “You’re the Christ.”

What you and I understand, but what a lot of people may not understand, is Jesus is a Jew talking to another Jew, asking a Jewish question and getting a Jewish response. So when he said, “Who do you say to that I am?” You can almost see Peter going, “I get it now.”

SID: Peter had the right answer. “You, Yeshua are Yeshua HaMashiach.”

LARRY: The Messiah. And the Messiah is the anointed one. And the anointed one in Hebrew means two things. He is the burden removing and the yoke destroying. And that’s so important because all Christians receive him as the burden removing, the wages of our sin is death. I receive Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, he’s removed my sins.

But he is also the yoke destroying. When you look at Jesus in Yom Kippur, on the day of Yom Kippur, and I put this in the book so people understand it, on Yom Kippur they didn’t bring him one sacrifice, to the high priest, they brought two. One sacrifice was to shed his blood so the sins would be broken, the sins would be cast away. But the second sacrifice would be to break the curses.

Jesus didn’t just come to forgive me of my sin. He came to break that family curse, that generational curse, of drug addiction, or of anger, or violence, or whatever that is in there. And so when Peter gave this response, “You are the Messiah. You’re not just here to temporarily forgive us of our sin. You’re here to break every curse.”

What happened on the day of Yom Kippur? When the curse was broken, then, when the priest went into the Holy of Holies, he sprinkled the blood seven times. How many places did Jesus shed his blood? Seven times. And so we don’t know that, and, Sid, that’s why it’s so important for people to understand these Bible prophecies, because we’re about not just to get the curse of drug addiction broken, or the curse off of our family, or the curse off our finances, we’re to get them all at one time, that gushing, as you said. We’re in that. These Bible prophecies are shouting to us, we’re in that time right now. There is nothing that I can’t do and I won’t do.

SID: Your new book, The Seven, I like that seven, Living Prophecies. Why do you say they’re living?

LARRY: Because they’re happening right now.

SID: These are predictions by God of impossible things that will happen in the future. And if you heard Larry right, he says the reason they’re called living prophecies is because you and I and Larry are alive to see it take place before our very eyes. And if that doesn’t cause your faith to be a gusher, then the gusher from Heaven, the glory’s going to hit you anyway, but what if you had both? You have had so many miracles, because he’s been a blessing to the Jewish people that the Heavens have opened in his life. Your grandson had a rare type of leukemia, no cure, no chance, given up.

LARRY: Given up.

SID: What happened?

LARRY: We were in Jerusalem for the opening of the embassy and we’re with government officials from Israel and government officials from Washington, we’re at dinner, one of the guys from Washington’s phone rings, and he said, “My wife has a prophecy for you.” And long story short, she said, “Pastor, I know you guys are busy, I know it’s late there in Jerusalem, but God told me I had to call you right now and give you this word. And the word is, the lion will roar from Jerusalem.”

ART: Wow! It’s early. Some of you were told you’ll be here till ten so maybe we can milk this a little bit but I want you to get some sleep tonight so we won’t go too long. So it’s 9:30. I’m just going to do it a couple more times but even if not everyone’s healed after this you all know what to do. Fair? In fact I laid hands on myself. I used to have scars all over my face from second degree burns. And this was before I had all this theology of healing thing figured out. But the one thing I did believe was when it says He sent His word and healed you. Right? So I was like I had these scars. The dermatologist told me it would take seven years because that’s how long it takes a human skin cell to regenerate. And that was when he said if they go away and it’s a huge “if” in his words.

So he said I don’t want to get your hopes up but this is what I’ll tell you. Two and a half years into having these scars I had a vision and I saw Jesus appear to Thomas say put your hands where the nails were. Put your hand in my side where the spear was. Right? And when I saw that picture in my mind I felt the Lord was saying to me I didn’t just take the pain and suffering for your sins so you don’t have to, but I also even now bear scars so you don’t have to. And so I ran into the bathroom. I put my hands on my face. I said Jesus take the scars. And I looked in the mirror and nothing happened. Sorry. Nothing happened. But I was so convinced that the Lord had spoken to me that I made that part of my daily routine. Shave, wash my face, Jesus take the scars. Within one month they were completely gone.

ART: I had a blast. The other day I was here filming something and the make-up artist said you know you’ve got great skin. You know I’m like yeah, that’s right. You know it. So that was two and a half years into having them which was four and a half years before it was even medically plausible. Okay? So don’t be afraid to lay hands on yourself. But I will tell you this. If you’re not seeing results ever don’t feel bad because the Biblical prescription for a Christian? It doesn’t say Christians you need to claim the right verses and all that stuff. If that works, great. Go for it. But what it says for a Christian is go to the elders of your church to pray over you and anoint you with oil in the name of the Lord and the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well.

The Lord will raise him up. So even for a Christian we’re called to go to our brothers and sisters to lay hands on us. Fair? So you don’t have to carry the weight of it yourself. Share it. Okay? But I’m hoping none of you have to use that but you just have a great story to tell somebody. All right. So one more time, if you’re not healed yet and it’s something testable. Okay? So for those who you can’t test it here you’re going to keep your hands down on this time because we’re just going to test it later. But for those who can test it right now raise your hand again. Okay. Quite a few of ‘em. So I want you all to do the same thing you did before. If you’re up here and you got nobody just agree with us. All right? So right now reach out put a hand on some of these. Yup. Wherever you are. And in Jesus” name be completely healed.  

AUDIENCE: In Jesus” name be completely healed.

ART: Now I want you all to test it out again. Test it out again. One temptation we have is we say like you know if I tried once and it didn’t work then I have to therefore try harder to make it work this time. But I’ve learned what I actually have to do is try less. Because if I’m trying that’s not faith. Okay? Faith is resting. So try less. Don’t squint harder or try to push power out your arm. You don’t have to say more words. Just keep it simple because Jesus is very simple. All right. Test it out again. Anybody healed this time? Yeah? What happened? (listening) Wow. How long on that? How long has that been going on? Years? Wow. Feet were numb. Shoulder pain. Back pain. Wow. Thank You, Lord. Whooo!  

ART: Anybody else on this side here? Yeah, yeah. What happened? Couldn’t move your arm and now you’re moving it. That’s awesome. You know I just want to— Jesus, thank you for this gentleman.  

GUILLERMO: —C’mon guys, we need to do it… Religion has taught you “Yeah, but that’s too difficult.” Nothing is impossible for God, nothing is impossible. So my announcement today is: take the limits out of God. Remove the limits. He is beyond, He is above and beyond. Take the limits out of God! —and tell Him, take the limits out of God. Yeah, we limit God. You know when I built this temple I should have said, “Well, I don’t know, I don’t have any money, I don’t know how I’m going to build it, it’s too hard.” I said “God, I don’t understand but I step out on faith.” So we understand. The introduction is why we need restoration? Because we lost how the church was founded. It was founded in the power. But today we come to church— and I enter into the end of the teaching. Okay, how can I flow in the supernatural? Would you like to learn? (Audience says “Yes”) I like the way Sid does it… Would you like to flow in the supernatural?

AUDIENCE: Yes—yeah.

GUILLERMO: Mmmm, over here, can you help me, would you like to flow in the supernatural?

AUDIENCE: Yes! (LOUDER, CLAPPING)

GUILLERMO: Okay, what [does] supernatural mean? Supernatural: miracles, signs and wonders, all things that belongs to the Spirit of God, miracles, signs and wonders, casting out demons, gifts of the Spirit, everything that has to do with the Spirit. And people today— how can we flow in the supernatural? Number one, to flow in the supernatural, number one we need to have a great expectation for the supernatural. The majority of the churches in America they have ZERO expectation for anything supernatural in the church. They come to church to hear a message, not to see a message. They come to church and they say “Well, that was a nice word, praise Jesus,” but you going back to the same doctor with the same sickness. Oh, that was a nice word. Well let me tell you what happened.

We are satisfied with just a 25 minute message and we don’t put demand on the preachers to demonstrate what he preaches. Because in America we are satisfied with knowledge. —That was a very nice message, praise Jesus. But you going to the same pills, to take the same pills every day because you got depression. So it doesn’t change anything. So the word without the spirit the letters kills. The scripture is not a magical book that you read it and something happens. If the breath of the Spirit is not there nothing will happen. In church today, Jesus said: Pharisees you err in the scripture and the power of God. They knew the scriptures, they knew the scriptures, they knew Hebrew, they knew it, but the thing is they knew the Torah but they didn’t have revelation. They didn’t have revelation.

There are some things there that only the Holy Spirit will give you the breath and the understanding, you will be floated with revelation with lights when it comes to you and then when you speak your words are alive. I can tell you testimonies after testimonies of dramatic transformation of the heart, people that come, thousands of young people coming into the altar bringing guns and weeds and marijuana and throwing them on the altar— they’re weeping and crying, conviction of the Holy Spirit. It’s not just the letter. The letter kills but people are very satisfied, “oh, that’s a nice, great message” but you [are] depressed. So what’s my point? My point is to move in the supernatural you must have an expectation for the supernatural. I wish I could hear an “amen” over here!
