SID: So God spoke to you there and said you weren’t called to be hid behind bars, you were called to be a prophet.
HAKEEM: What happened was once I made the decision and I said, yes Lord, I will answer the call, I will obey, I was there for about 12 hours. Once I made that decision then maybe like ten minutes later they released me.
SID: Okay. You’re out of prison, but there was a visible difference in you from before that happened. Describe that.
HAKEEM: Yes. Once I was released from jail I would say maybe a week later I will be coming out of a restaurant or I will come out of a store and people, a stranger, will come up to me and say, “There’s something on you. Who are you? I see something different about you and what is that?” Now I didn’t even know what was on me. But because they saw something different they began to inquire. And so they asked me, “Do you minister? Do you preach?” And I, so they said, “Well I want you to come preach, I want you to come to my church and preach. I want to hear what God has to say through you.”
SID: Okay. So you know that God has called you to prophesy. They could see something on him. He didn’t have a sign. They saw something. That something was God. So he goes to the church to do what God has equipped him to do to prophesy. But God did more. There’s a blind man there. What happened?
HAKEEM: Well yes. So I know I had a call to the prophetic and then I’m looking, and the door opens up of the church while I’m ready to minister, and I see people coming in with wheelchairs and crutches, and so forth. And so as I begin to preach I saw this guy who was blind and I began to minister to him, and I began to say, “How is your sight?” He said he couldn’t see. And so I began to pray for him and nothing happened. And so I was discouraged, but I continued to just pray. And then one thing that I did, I said, let me just shift it. Let me just speak the Word. Let me prophesy over him. And I began to prophesy over him and I said, “God is going to open your eyes in seven days.” Seven days later I received a phone call from his pastor that said, “The man that you prophesied over can see.” God opened his eyes supernaturally.
SID: You know what I’m really fascinated by this gifting, all of his spiritual senses are open. He sees words over people’s head. Tell me about one person with cancer.
HAKEEM: Yes. I was in a meeting and I was just ready to wrap up and the Spirit of God gave me a revelation. As I was looking into the crowd I began to see words and one of the words was “cancer”. And so I called out. It was a word of knowledge. I called out, I said, “There is someone in here that has cancer. God wants to heal.” This woman came forward. And so as I began to look at her, I began to just prophesy. I was not going to lay hands on her. I wanted to declare the Word of God. Sid, this is what God gave me. He said if I reveal it, I can heal it. If God reveals it, he can heal it. I am not the miracle worker. I’m just a conduit. And so he revealed this hovering, this word “cancer” and I saw it, the Spirit, call it out. And she came forth, and I saw the condition. But I wanted to speak the word that God will heal you. And I spoke the word and she fell out under the power of God. When she got back up, of course, I couldn’t see that she was healed, but I believed it, because I believed the word that was spoken. I believed what I was declaring over her and I began to command her body to be made whole. Two months later I got a report that she is cancer-free.
SID: Hakeem, there was a man that was a friend of mine who is now in Heaven that was a prophet seer like you, that prayed over you and sharpened your gifts. Tell me a bit about that.
HAKEEM: Yes. Bob Jones was like a papa, father, prophet in my life, and he was a seer prophet. And I went to his home several years ago and what happened was while I was there sitting, conversating with him, he asked me, “Do you want to meet my friend?” And I said, looking around like, who’s your friend? We have people here. And he was referring to Papa. He was referring to the Lord. And I said, sure. And he said, “Then I want to activate you and I want to cause you to be raptured up.” He used the word “rapture”. In my mind, theology, I will think rapture or so forth, I’m thinking right now it’s the end?
SID: That’s it. Bye-bye.
HAKEEM: And so while I’m sitting there, he said, “No, you can be called up, raptured. You can be called up right now.” We are seated in heavenly places right now with Christ. And so he wanted to activate that. And so I said, sure. And he said, “I am going to activate you.” And so he told me to close my eyes. I closed my eyes and he said, “Take a deep breath.” I took a deep breath and he said, “What do you feel? What do you see?” And I began to tell him what I feel. I said, “I feel these wings.” He said, “These are the angels.” And while I was feeling these supernatural expressions, feelings, I bumped into a vision. God opened my eyes and I began to see in the heavenly realm. God began to show me this tree. This tree had life flowing. It was green, but it was moving. Then I saw these riverbeds. They were like streams, a river. And then I literally saw these eyes, but these eyes that I looked were like eyes of fire. And while I was there I was kind of a little afraid because I’m like, what is it I’m experiencing? I’m in Bob Jones’ living room, but I’m in heavenly places right now. And so while I’m seeing these eyes I’m feeling the peace and the love, this liquid love that I felt surround me. And then I heard this sound, this like a trumpet, and I came out of the vision. And from that day my prophetic senses were open. Bob Jones was used, instrumental, to activate the seer realm in my life.
SID: I’m going to ask Hakeem to, freely you receive, freely you give, to freely pray in the Messiah’s name that these gifts will be activated in you, when we come back. Be right back.
