Our Guest Hakeem Collins

SID: As I said, people, I am so excited, Hakeem, about your book. The minute I saw it, I wanted to interview because God’s been talking to me about commanding your healing. Tell me how you came about this revelation.

HAKEEM: Yes. I came up with this revelation when I was in desperate need of an actual supernatural healing from God. I had a broken jaw that was unexpected. The fact of the matter is, the surgeons basically said that I couldn’t have surgery until Monday. My jaw was broken on a Thursday, and there was a piece behind my ear that was broken, an actual bone, and they said they couldn’t go behind there because if they do, they may cut off my nerve and then I will also lose my hearing. So they said, “It needs to grow on its own and it takes about six to 12 weeks for it to grow on its own. And that’s just a possibility.” And so, me waiting that weekend, I was in desperate need. I said, “Lord, show me in your word that I can receive healing now.” Of course they put me on medicine, they put me on meds, but it wasn’t working.

I needed an alternative. And so the alternative for healing was in the word of God. And so I began to read the scriptures concerning how to command, in other words, this authority that believers have. So I took the word literally and I put it into practice. And what I did was I basically did something foolish, Sid. I lay hands on my jaw and I begin to speak to my jaw and command my jaw in the name of Jesus Christ to be healed, to be mended, to come together, and something supernatural happened. My eardrum began to pop and my jaw began to adjust supernaturally.

When Monday came, when it was time for surgery, they did an x-ray. And when they saw in the X-ray, they saw that the bone fracture that was behind the ear that was cracked. They literally saw that it was totally restored and it was the widest part in the X-ray diagram. So God did something supernatural based off of my faith.

SID: Now, but I have to have you clarify something. Are you commanding God?

HAKEEM: Of course not.

SID: Well, who are you commanding?

HAKEEM: What I’m commanding is, number one, I’m commanding sickness to go. I’m commanding the infirmities to go. I’m not commanding God, that’s not what I teach. But what I teach is basically is being a commander by the Holy Spirit, because we’ve been given delegated authority. In Luke, chapter 10, verse 19, it says that God has given us power to tread upon serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy.

SID: Whoa, whoa. Did you catch that? What sickness are you dealing with? And is that included in the word all? I believe it is. You have been given authority over all sickness, that’s pretty strong.

HAKEEM: Yes, it’s very strong. And I believe, not just for me, Sid, but it’s for every believer that’d been given this delegated authority, this power by the Holy Spirit and by faith we can operate it. And that’s what I believe I did when I needed a healing in my jaw. And so I activated my faith and I commanded my jaw by the power of the Holy Spirit to line up. And so I teach it by the word of God. We cannot do anything without the word of God. And so I put the word of God in practice and I saw a supernatural results.

SID: That is the bottom line. You recently had a Command Your Healing conference. Tell me of one of your recent conferences, what happened when you commanded blessings?

HAKEEM: Yeah. There was a eight-year-old girl that was deaf in one ear, and her mother brought her up for healing, because I called an altar call, and I was beginning to release just the scripture and an impartation about the power of God, the healing power of God. And so her mother brought her up and she was deaf in one ear and what I did was basically I didn’t know exactly what to say. All I knew was that I had authority to command the deaf and dumb spirit, I have the authority to rebuke it and command it to come out, and I also have the power and authority that was given by Jesus—is to call her and command her hearing to come back fully.

When I did that, what happened was, I walked a distance, And I had her face, her back facing me, and what I did was I called out this young lady’s name to make sure she was able to hear and when I called her name out, she was able to hear everything I said very clearly. So we do have a power by the authority of God to command, not only healing, but command demons to leave, command sickness to leave. All those things. Because why? We are commanders by the Holy Spirit.

SID: We are, you know what I’d like you to do near the end of the program, I’ll tell you the right time to command healing of everyone viewing. I said everyone in the audience, especially things that you’ve seen, by the way, you’ve seen almost everything. There was someone at that same conference, you told me, that had cancer, someone that was in a wheelchair. Tell me about, real quickly, the wheelchair and the cancer.

HAKEEM: Yeah, there was also a guy that was overweight. He was bound to a wheelchair. He couldn’t move. And you know, there was so much going on with him, you can just look at him and see that he needed a healing touch from God. And so I came over there and I just laid my hands on him, and again, that Holy Spirit role is up, that authority role is up on the inside of me, and I begin to command his bones, his back, his ligaments, his blood. I mean everything I can think of, Sid, I begin to speak by the power of the Holy Spirit for him to walk. And what happened was he jumped up, even while I was still praying for him and commanded him to be healed, he jumped out of the wheelchair and began to run around the church.

SID: By the way, can anyone that’s a believer command like that?

HAKEEM: Anyone, any believer, any spiritual believer has the power and the authority to move in and operate in the supernatural.

SID: So, tell me about the people with cancer.

HAKEEM: Now, this was ironic to me because at the same time there were three women standing next to each other and each of them had cancer issues. And so in my mind is like, “Wow, God doesn’t make mistakes. God wants to perform my miracle right now. And so what I did was I began to lay hands on each and every one of them. Those three women and I began to command cancer to leave their body, to be evicted in Jesus’ name, I began to speak to the spirit and the infirmity of death to leave in Jesus’ name. And once I did that, listen, their countenances began to change. Now, I couldn’t see if they were healed, but three weeks later I began to receive emails and reports on Facebook, or on social media, basically saying that these women were touched and healed, and there is no trace of cancer in their blood.

SID: You talk about the meaning of the word command. And you even say we are commanders. Comment on that.

HAKEEM: Yeah. Listen, we’ve been given delegated authority. Jesus has given us as disciples, as believers, the same ability and the same power that was on him is on us as well today. And so, listen, God is in the healing business right now. Sometimes it may not have somebody [there] to lay hands. You may not have somebody to speak life over you right then and there. But when you tap into the word of God, it creates an atmosphere and miracle start taking place. So it’s basically knowing that you have authority, knowing that you’ve been given power, and knowing that you are a child of God.

SID: You had quite an encounter with your own aunt.

HAKEEM: Yes.

SID: What was wrong with her?

HAKEEM: Well, my aunt was, actually fell into a coma. She fell into a coma, and our family basically was given an opportunity to, basically pull the plug.

SID: I’ll tell you what, hold that thought. When we come back, I want him to tell you how what he did with an atmosphere of healing so that his aunt did not have the plug pulled. Be right back.
