SID: Justin, you were a real rebellious maverick before you knew the Messiah, but then after knowing the Messiah, you actually got kicked out of a new age festival?
JUSTIN: That’s right, yeah. Some friends and I went into a number of new age fairs actually under the moniker mystics of Yeshua. So we were calling ourselves mystics of Yeshua in order to really read people’s mail prophetically, interpret dreams, pray for healing, cast out devils.
SID: That’s normal, isn’t it?
JUSTIN: It’s supposed to be. Yes. And so during these psychic fairs, we became a really hot topic. We had organizers of the psychic fair telling people, they would say, “I’ve only got time for one. Which one?” Because we’d be in the reading room with 20 other psychics and we were believers and they would say, “I’ve only got time for one.” And the organizers would say, “You’ve got to go to the mystics of Yeshua.”
SID: But they weren’t believers.
JUSTIN: No, definitely not. And they would say, “They’ve got the hottest energy in here.” There were times that we would have a line of people for 30, 45 minutes waiting to get prophetic ministry from us. You know, we’re surrounded by the counterfeit. We had the goods and so people were hungry. We saw many people get saved. We saw two witches that got saved who came out of witchcraft. One of them we didn’t know about until years later, but because of our ministry there, she got radically saved and delivered. But what ended up happening, the reason we got kicked out is somebody found out who we really were, that we were casting demons out of people, that we are leading people to the Lord. And they sent a letter to the entire psychic organization blacklisting all of the mystics of Yeshua.
SID: Now, before you got saved, people wouldn’t have thought, years drug addiction, dealer of drugs, arrests. So you just come back from having a good old time and you’re partying on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, and you come home and you get visited by a glory cloud.
JUSTIN: Yes.
SID: Why does God do that to a guy that’s drug addict? I’ve never seen a glory cloud. What happened?
JUSTIN: Well, I got really desperate, especially for a couple of years leading up to that. So many things were going wrong in my life. It was no longer fun to party. I was just stuck and I was just crying out to the Lord and he heard my prayers. He also heard my dad’s prayers, who happened to be on a prayer retreat during the same days that I was partying on Bourbon Street. And so when I got home, 3:00 in the morning that night-
SID: Was his prayer retreat mostly for you?
JUSTIN: That was his main prayer for sure. Yeah. I went in to the bedroom and shut the door behind me and went face first on the ground. And for probably the first time in my life, I began to encounter the presence of God. In my spirit I could see that there was an actual cloud of the glowing glory of God that just moved into my room and hovered over me for three hours. I mean, the heart surgery that God did on me was remarkable. The addiction was broken off, years of emotional and mental turmoil and all of that was just, it was like I became a new creation. Like I was born again and transferred out of the kingdom of darkness and into the kingdom of light.
SID: I read that somewhere.
JUSTIN: Yes, me too. So it changed everything, quite literally.
