SID: Now Judy Jacobs had a vision in which she saw a tsunami coming to the United States of America. Tell me about that.
JUDY: I had this vision I was on the beach. My husband was standing beside me and as I’m looking out into the water, Sid, I see this wall of water as tall as the sky. This water is coming toward the beach. It’s coming toward where we are, where we’re standing. And I said to my husband, “Look, it’s a tsunami.” And my husband, he said, he started walking toward the water and I said, “What is that? What is that? It’s a tsunami.” He says, “No, no, Judy.” He says, “Look. That’s not water. That’s glory.” And as we’re walking, in the tsunami, I’m seeing people from every people group, any people groups you can imagine. They’re in the water and they’re swimming, and they’re speaking in tongues, they’re speaking in the language of the Holy Spirit. And they are swimming in this water. And the Glory of God is on their faces. And I’m thinking, and I said, “God, what is going on?” He said, “That’s my Glory that’s coming to this nation and the nations of the earth.”
SID: Judy, I want you to describe to me what you see happening when the tsunami hits.
JUDY: In my mind, I’m seeing people healed. I’m seeing people going into hospitals and laying hands on people, and then getting up and going out and about, going home that day. I’m seeing revival breakout in schools. I didn’t tell you that on the very top of this tsunami were my two daughters, and they’re up there, and they’re surfing. I’m seeing the Glory of God break out in schools. I’m seeing the Glory of God break out in Walmart. I’m seeing the Glory. I’m believing before too long we’re going to hear, there’s a healing line in Adonai at Walmart. I believe there’s coming a revival that’s going to come and hit our churches, our schools, our malls. I believe it’s going to hit like a tsunami that we’ve never seen where people will be healed, delivered, set free in moments.
SID: And what I see is we are in what the rabbis tell us, what Malachi tells us, the days of Elijah just before the Messiah returns…. Judy Jacobs singing, “The Days of Elijah.”

Let me tell you something Billy Graham wrote a book and in this book he said “I have one great regret after looking through my life.” And by the way; what a wonderful life for a man of God for what Belly Graham has accomplished. But “This is my big regret instead of making disciples I made converts.” And you know better than 90% of the people that would come forward in a Billy Graham campaign wouldn’t even be in a church a year from that date. Probably almost 98% I don’t know the statistics but that would be my guess. Well, I would differ with Billy just a little bit; I would agree that he should have made disciples but I tell you that you must have your own experience with the living God. I had an experience a month ago and you see today is Shavuot, or Pentecost, in which in the New Covenant we commemorate the outpouring of God’s Spirit in Acts 2nd chapter when a wind came and people were filled with the Spirit of God to overflowing. Well I recently went to a church in the Brunswick, Georgia area that’s having an outpouring of God’s Spirit and I saw something that I haven’t seen in a long long time. As a matter of fact I take that back I don’t believe I even saw that 30 years ago when I became a Jewish Believer in the Messiah during the beginnings of the Charismatic movement. I saw a group of young children 14, 13, 15, 9 just young children enraptured in the Spirit of God laying on their backs, their hands up in the air worshiping God praying in unknown tongues. And I tell you something that those children will never, ever be able to get more than one inch away from the Lord. They wouldn’t want to. That’s the type of encounter every single of us has to have; instead today we rely on the cerebral to preach the gospel. We rely on the theatrics to get people to come into a church. Why? Because we don’t have the supernatural; since God doesn’t change what’s going on? I mean there are many churches that say today “We don’t want to talk about tongues because it’s too controversial and we don’t want controversy in our church.” I’m so glad that 2000 years ago at Shavuot at Pentecost our forefathers didn’t say “It’s too controversial, it’s too messy.” It was controversial; it was messy, when God invades humanity it gets controversial; when God invades humanity it gets messy. Is it out of order? Was it out of order that people said that they looked like they were drunk? They were so enraptured with God they were so in love with God. I wish you could have seen the faces of these young children. Then when I first became a believer we had the Catholic Charismatic Movement that was really the leader in the Charismatics. And we used to go to meetings in which we would sing in the Spirit and no person could orchestrate the beauty and the Majesty of God’s Holy Spirit conducting worship. It was the most magnificent thing that I’d ever heard. So we have the two spectrums, we have some churches that say “Well, it’s controversial so we don’t want to have tongues.” And what did Paul say? “Forbid not speaking in tongues,” what did Paul say “I speak in tongues more than any man.” What does the Bible say when you pray in unknown tongues you edify yourself, in other words you charge up your spirit. It’s like a muscle and most of us have big mental muscles; big physical muscles; but anemic spirit muscles. So how do we build up our spirit? It says “When you pray in tongues you edify yourself. The word edify in the Greek is similar to if you have a dead battery in your car and you charge it up and then it works. It’s charging yourself up, it’s praying mysteries in the Spirit with perfect faith. They may be mysteries to you because they’re unknown tongues but they’re not mysteries to the Spirit of God that is showing your spirit how to give you these words to speak them out loud. And you’re cutting the devil off before he can even start. No wonder he goes into churches and says that they are controversial. Then some Charismatic Churches even say “Well, we don’t want tongues unless there’s an interpretation because there might be an unsaved person that will think that you’ve crazy.” Well, the truth is if the whole congregation is speaking in unknown tongues and an unsaved person comes in and unsaved person comes in and that’s what happened in the Corinthian Church. Don’t think that you’re crazy. And Paul said “I’d rather have a few prophetic words with understanding than all of those tongues.” But he was talking about where it was a bedlam thing, however, if someone prays in tongues and worships God you don’t even need an interpretation it’s just so beautiful. And people have gone too far their throwing the baby out with the dirty bath water. Paul never in a million years said “I really don’t want anyone praying in tongues.” He just was qualifying in a church that it was out of control, it was carnal in effect. Well some people say “I’ll pray in unknown tongues I believe in it because it’s in the Bible when God causes me to do it.” Well, I’ll tell you something; it clearly shows you in the Book of Acts is “They spoke when the Spirit gave them utterance.” In other words, just as you speak with understanding you can speak in the Spirit; just as you sing with understanding you can sing in the Spirit. You cannot speak in English unless you cooperate with your mouth and tongue and vocal chords. I challenge you! I challenge you to try and speak in English; you cannot speak unknown tongues unless you do the same cooperation as when you’re speaking in English. And I believe that everyone that is born again that asks God in Jesus Name to be filled with His Spirit is filled with God’s Spirit. And I believe that when you’re filled with God’s Spirit you are given a private devotional prayer language.
Now you see that there are other types of tongues it’s in the plural when the gift of the Spirit is mentioned. And there are different rules for different types of tongues. There are tongues for the public assembly not all speak in public gift in the assembly. But then there are unknown tongues that everyone is given so that we can worship God in Spirit and in understanding; we can sing to God in the Spirit and we can sing to God in our understanding. Yes I know that our understanding can have the Spirit of God on it in English, of course. But he distinguishes between praying in the Spirit and praying with understanding. I believe that if I pray with you right now you’ll get your private devotional prayer language. You see I believe the moment you prayed you were given this gift; but God is waiting for you, you’re waiting for God; you’ve had some faulty teaching; what if it isn’t tongues; what if I’m speaking on behalf of the devil? Well that voice come directly from the devil; who’s name did you pray in? Did you believe that the blood of Yeshua washed away your sins? Do you believe you’re the righteousness of God? If a child asked their earthly father for bread he won’t give them a serpent. How much more will your Heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those that ask? What better time than Shavuot; Pentecost which is today for you to be Baptized it the Holy Spirit. Pull your car off to the side of the street; let’s pray now. First make sure your sins are forgiven, repeat this prayer. Dear God (right now say it with me). “Dear God I’m a sinner against You and You alone have I sinned and I’m so sorry; I believe that Jesus died for my sins and by His blood I’m forgiven; and now that I’m clean Jesus be my Lord, live inside of me and fill me to overflowing with Your Holy Spirit.” Now I believe that that Spirit of God; that same Spirit that rose Messiah Jesus from the dead is living within you and if you will begin to worship God; begin to speak out loud as quickly as you can. If you think you’ll not have the unknown tongues you’ll have a made up language. If you’ll just speak without thinking, I’ll begin to worship God worship, worship God with me as quickly as you can out-loud. I want you to do a mind by pass it’s not coming from your mind. The reason you don’t know what to say is it’s not in your mind it’s in your spirit, but you’ll not hear it until you speak it. (Sid speaking in His prayer language). And I pray in the Name of Yeshua that this will be the greatest Pentecost, the greatest Shavuot in your life. And if you already pray in unknown tongues pray more; we’re coming into an amazing time in the Spirit of God. We’ll pick up right… someone’s neck was just healed…We’ll pick up right here on tomorrow’s broadcast.

Sid: My guest Randy Clark is red hot for the Messiah. Randy in the last few days I’ve had a few questions from people that are open to the Spirit even Spirit Filled and they say “You know I’ve stopped praying for people especially non-believers because when they’re not healed then they’re not interested in the Lord.” What would you say to someone like that?
Randy: That wasn’t my experience first of all we did have quite a few people get healed. But the fact that we had enough compassion and love to offer to pray for them impressed them whether or not they were healed. And it’s not like you have to close the deal more or less every time you talk about Jesus the Messiah. Sometimes you sow a seed and somebody else waters and somebody else does the harvest. And so I look at it like that but every time you do something in love and compassion in the Name of Jesus it just helps sow a seed or either you’ll get to do the harvest of somebody else will.
Sid: Well, what would you say to someone that says I believe in healing because its in the Bible but I’ve prayed for a number of people and no one gets healed?
Randy: Well, I would encourage them to talk to people that are seeing people get healed and have them look at their theology. They may believe it’s in the Bible but do you believe that it’s normative or rare? And do you believe that it’s something that all Christians should be involved in or only a few. Do you believe that everybody’s supposed to pray for the sick as a Christian or a believer in the Messiah or is it only for the elders? So you can believe that it’s in the Bible but have a sued view of what the Bible actually teaches which makes you not have much expectation. I’d encourage them to take some course or read some books or materials that would really help them understand a good theology of healing. And not only a good theology but a practice of understanding how to flow with the Holy Spirit; what to recognize what the Holy Spirit’s doing in the healing.
Sid: Why is it and I meet people all the time that tell me “It’s easier to get a non-believer healed than a believer; why would that be?
Randy: Actually Sid I have a whole chapter in “The Central Guide to Healing” by the title “Why Are there unbelieving believers and believing unbelievers.” Meaning the sense of the supernatural; and the main reason for that is a lot of the Protestant church were taught in by their pastors and their pastors were taught this in school, Bible Schools or Seminaries that healing and tongues and healing and prophecy and miracles ended with the canonization of the scriptures or the death of the apostles. Which is not correct Biblically I talk about that in several books I’ve written. Church history doesn’t back it up; the Bible doesn’t back it up and our experience today doesn’t back it up. And so one of the reasons then you have people who have been raised in church taught not to believe; while as people that never been to synagogue or church they just believe that “Hey if there is God He’s big enough to heal.”
Sid: But I go to Charismatic type meetings and I say “Raise your hand if you need to be physically healed.” And like 90% of the people if not higher raise their hand; they know what God’s word says about healing. What’s the disconnect?
Randy: Well, sometimes I mean there can be a lot of disconnects you know it’s people know more in their head than they know in their heart; you know it’s kind of an intellectual thing but not really in their spirit. Sometimes they don’t feel worthy of being healed; sometimes they don’t feel like they….sometimes they feel like “I just deserve this; my lifestyle brought this on me.” Or they could have the view “I know that God can heal but He’s not going to heal me.” Which is interesting because we’ve actually had people come to the meetings skeptical and get healed.
Sid: You know I think there’s another thing that plays into what’s your saying and that is someone that was raised in a Charismatic Healing Church that prayed for themselves over the years and never got healed. There’s almost a spirit of unbelief; and I think American Christianity in general is dealing with that.
Randy: Yes, but it’s not as bad as it used to be. I mean we’re seeing a lot more now than when we did 10 years ago.
Sid: So, what would you recommend someone that’s been 15, 20, 30 years in a church and has seen healings but for themselves they never get healed? They’re in unbelief; how do they get out of it?
Randy: Well, I think if they can get into a place where they see others get healed; if they can meet people that is a credible witness to them. I mean this person I believe and they can hear their stories. And the other thing is just not becoming offended in their own heart if they’re not healed when they think they ought to be. I know people that went 6 – 7 years and believed in healing, they went for healing and weren’t healed but they didn’t give up and then they got healed.
Sid: I want to take you…I hear you have amazing ministry in Brazil.
Randy: Yes.
Sid: Tell me what how’d that start; how’d that happen?
Randy: I got a prophetic word “God was going to use me in 6 countries, more than He did in Brazil and even in Toronto.” And I was getting ready to meet a delegation from Brazil and Korea at the time and I went to Brazil for the first time there was just this one service and the Spirit of God fell and a lot of people started getting healed and that was in a meeting of 1200 Pastors and that kind of began to just catapult me for the next that was 1999 until 2014 it just kept growing. And so I got to go to more churches in Brazil than almost the United States. And some of the largest churches in the world and minister. And we’ve see eyes open and ears open; and as a matter of fact we just came back from Brazil. And we’ve seen eyes open and ears open there; people healed of metal there and this was in December. And usually Sid half of the healing that take place in our meetings take place when somebody on my team prays; who in Brazil they thought I was lying to them. I said “There’s just like you they come from all walks of life and they’re a prophetic sign that’s why I take a team with me as a prophetic sign that’s just not for the God’s man of power for the hour type mentality. But this is God’s looking for a Church of Power for the hour. And that’s one of the things they had trouble believing me that I was telling the truth. They thought these were professionally paid professional healers who traveled with me where ever I went they couldn’t believe that they were just housewives and line workers and mechanics and lawyers and doctors just like them.
Sid: Well, you know when healing explodes the church explodes; tell me about the church you worked with in Brazil that started with just 300 people.
Randy: Yeah, that’s a Baptist Church and Aguavidos Living Water Baptist Church in Mavwah near Somplao. And when I first went there it was on the wrong side of the tracks, it had about 300 people or less and the Pastor was a traditional Baptist Pastor but he wanted to open it up for healing and we had so many healings; so many people and the staff was healed. The next time I went there a few years later the church had grown to 3,000, the next time it was 9,000 and the next time I thought some had happened because it wasn’t as full as last time. And when I interviewed him it turned out that he had started 23 churches in 1 year out of his church. And he now had over 30,000 in the city that went to one of the daughter churches or his church. So every time we have gone there we’ve seen amazing healings. One person’s club foot turned over backwards turned. A couple of woman on the team were praying and the foot moved. The boy had actually bought tennis shoes to bring to the meeting because he believed he’d run after it though. He had never been able to run and he did. We had people that had stokes; aneurisms; paralyzed on one side and they got their feeling and walked and could hear again for the stroke had caused him to go deaf. Another had a tumor behind the eye and couldn’t walk over 10 feet without falling out. And we just saw; we’ve seen so many major…
Sid: But you know the most impressive thing that you just said to me Randy was you have a team of non-professional clergy or evangelist; people from every walk of life and that’s who we’re talking to right now. And so we have asked Randy to put together the best material he has to train you; to equip you because anything his team does you can do. And the first is his book “The Essential Guide to Healing” that he did in conjunction with Bill Johnson. And the second is his manual that 1000’s of pastors worldwide have been equipped for ministry and it called “Ministry Team Training Manual.” And then a quick reference guide on “How to Minister Prayer and Deliverance.” You keep it right in your Bible. And 4 of his best training DVD’s. I mean these are DVD’s that before his team can go out they have to go through these courses and these DVD’s…..Randy tell me about one person that read your books and what happened to them.
Randy: Yeah, he was a Nazarene Evangelist; a friend of mine who was in my Doctoral Group that was Nazarene and gave him my book. And he read it and when he did he all of a sudden had greater expectation; greater faith and a stronger anointing came on him. And it was like 4 years ago and he’s read it 5 times now and he has seen 140,000 people in his meetings be filled with the Spirit and 14,000 people get healed. And an amazing thing he told me “I’m seeing things in Nazarene Denominations that we haven’t seen in 100 years” and the faith for it came when I read one of my books.
Sid: Randy on tomorrow’s broadcast or perhaps Friday’s I want you to move in the Spirit and I believe we’re going to get 1000’s of people healed. So if you know someone that needs to be healed you have them tune in Thursday and Friday of this week.

Sid: When you understand what my guest is teaching this week if you’re not red hot for the Messiah you got to be a zombie; you’ve got to be crazy. Or as we Jewish people say you got to be mashuga; another word for crazy. My guest Perry Stone; President and Founder of Voice of Evangelism. I’m featuring his latest book called “Unlocking Secrets in the Second Coming Scrolls” Subtitled “Searching for the Time of Messiah’s Return.” Now Perry everyone wants to know when the Messiah is going to return. But everyone know that we don’t know the exact time; it’s a mystery if you will. But you wrote a whole book giving indications; how come?
Perry: (Laughing) Well, one of the things I like to share with people when we talk about searching for the time and Sid you’re aware of this as I am. Especially people that are listening to us that have been in church or been Christian’s for a long time; both Jews and Gentiles. And that is that many times people have set dates when events would happen. They would calculate a year; they would calculate how long they thought a generation was. And you know the one verse that people uses if Matthew 24 where it says “This generation shall not pass until all of these things be fulfilled.” And then they do a study on how long is a generation and then they try to calculate. And then what happens in our day and time is people start with 1948 which was the year Israel became a nation or they start with 1967 when Jerusalem was reunited as the Capitol. And then we want to add a generation on to that to tie everything together. First of all when you talk about how long a generation is it depends on what you’re talking about. For example the Bible talks about in the Book of Genesis Chapter 2 and verse 4 “These are the generations of heaven and earth. And the generations of heaven and earth are 1000 year periods; because there’s going to be a millennial reign on earth according to Revelation 20 of the Messiah when He returns and that 1000 year reign is called the Day of the Lord. So a generation of heaven and earth is a 1000 year period. And then you have God telling Abraham in Genesis 15: 13-16. “Your seed shall be strangers in a land” speaking of Egypt “But I will bring them out after 4 generations.” When you divide four into 400 that’s 100 years; so in Abraham’s day the generations were 100 years in length each. Now one of the reasons for that may have been that Abraham was 100 years of age when his son Isaac was born and men lived longer back then than they do today. Men lived double and triple the age that they do so generations were longer then. And that maybe why a generation in Abraham’s day was a 100 year period. Now we come to Moses day which is 430 years approximately after Abraham’s time. And God says for 40 years I was grieved with that generation, speaking of the generation of unbelief in the wilderness. Psalms 95 verses 10-11. Now we see a generation there of unbelief is 40 years. We come to the New Testament talking about a generation and we see that Messiah gave prediction that says “Upon you shall come all the righteous blood that was shed from Abel to Zachariah whom you slew between the porch and the altar.” Well that was spoken probably around 30 AD and was fulfilled in the year 70 AD. So we have an approximate 40 years for a generation of unbelief. Now if we were to sit down and try to calculate when we think the Messiah will return; will it be here or there; this is one of the most important things I have ever shared with people. That I have found out that you can’t take time and count it that way because God counts time by covenants. And let me explain what I mean when I say God counts time by covenants. In Matthew 1:17 it says that all the generations from…it actually is giving us the details of fourteen generations, fourteen generations and fourteen generations. And so from the time of David to Babylon is fourteen; from Babylon until Christ is fourteen and from Abraham to David is fourteen. So you’ve got fourteen, fourteen, fourteen and now why does God talk about Abraham; why does he talk about David, Babylon and the Messiah all in that passage of Matthew 1:17.
Sid: And we know that there are no wasted words with God so there is meaning upon meaning upon meaning if you know the keys.
Perry: That is absolutely correct. Okay God made covenant with Abraham, God made covenant with Abraham for a nation called Israel. God made covenant with David for the city of Jerusalem for his seed would rule there. God then the Hebrew nation broke the covenant at the time of the Babylonian captivity. But then Machach or Messiah Jesus; Yeshua he brought a new covenant in. So notice that there’s 14 generations; 14, 14 and 14 that’s a pattern. But you can’t look at those generations and count years, you can only count them as this man had a son, he’s the second generation. He had a son third generation because if you add up the years they don’t add up equal. In others words the years between Abraham to David; from David to Babylon to Christ they’ll be one time frame they’ll be 490 years and one will be 560 years. So you can’t do it by years; you do it by covenants. Now here’s my point we are in the time frame of the dispensation of the grace of God and we know that there’s a time of tribulation coming in the future. But what happens is there’s an actual covenant transfer to where the church has the favor or God. And the church again consisting of both Jew and Gentile who are now one in Christ. But the church has the favor of God; and we’re preaching the gospel; Matthew 24:14. But our assignment to preach is finished what happens? We’re caught up to meet the Lord in the air 1 Thessalonians 4; then God turns His attention back to not the church but to Israel. And then He works to reestablish his covenant of the Messiah with Israel who had gone into unbelief. And so it’s very difficult when people say give me a time frame. Jesus said; the Lord said “There would be signs.” Matthew 24. And Paul said “We’re not in darkness that we would be overtaken unaware.” But at the same time we have to understand that it’s all about covenant with God. It’s all about the covenant that He has with His people through Yeshua and the covenant that He’s going to reestablish in faith as the eyes of the Hebrew nation will be opened there in the future in such a wonderful way. So the real key is understanding that God is counting time by covenant. But yet there are patterns; I mean when you use Matthew 1:17 Fourteen generations, 14, 14. It didn’t say 14, 20 and 6 or 18, 12 and 1; there’s a pattern. So in our book “Unlocking Secrets in the Second Coming Scrolls “ what I try to do is discover patterns that are in the scripture that will help people to understand some of the aspects about the Messiah and what was said about His return. And I’ll tell you what the more you dig into the scripture the more you find. And it’s almost like you can almost go in the word as deep just so deep it’s almost amazing. But yet it’s simple once you see it it’s so simple to understand it but it does take digging in to the word to get those nuggets out.
Sid: Well, if I was to ask you a question that you’ve heard many a time is Jesus returning in your lifetime?
Perry: Your answer would be if things continue to go at the rate they’re going and continue to accelerate I believe it’s very very possible. However, I’m going to be one of those that’s going to be dogmatic on it because there are people in the past that have been dogmatic and they’ve already gone to be with the Lord. But if I should fulfill my days and one of the reasons I say this Sid is because when you look at Islamic terrorism and you look at the prophecies that the Muslim’s have about how they’re going to rule the world and the plans that they have there’s just like there’s something has been unleashed on the entire world at this point. And you know that if the weapons of mass destruction get into the wrong hands and you know that eventually they will then you can see all of these prophecies in the book of Revelation about these judgments and you know 1/3 dying here and grass being burned up and all these other strange scriptures how they can come to pass through the weapons developed or are being developed. So because of things like that I really believe that we are in the what’s called the time of the end. Or what would be addressed in the New Testament as the last days. And I believer that anyone that prays and is lead by the Holy Spirit can see that that’s true. And that you can feel it kind of feel deep down in your spirit and of course the Holy Spirit knows all things as it relates to things of God. And I think that the Holy Spirit is quickening a lot of people now to say to them “Hey, get your family to the Lord; begin to really pray; begin to support the gospel; get it out there because there is a time limitation you know quick work the Lord is going to do in the earth. And I think that we can see that happening.
Sid: Now where do you believe Islam is headed?
Perry: Sid I don’t know if you ever heard me teach this before but we wrote on this and we taught this publicly. After 12 years of studying this in great detail I believe that the man this is identified in the New Testament by our early fathers is a Muslim that rises up somewhere out of the 10 territory between Persia which is Iran up toward Syria, Lebanon. That whole strip that used to be the old Babylon territory.
Sid: But we have nothing to fear because the leaders of our country have said “Islam is a peace loving religion.
Perry: Well, I think those who said that I believe say they want to try to keep a retaliation from taking place in our country toward people of that faith.
Sid: So it’s a little like a white lie?
Perry: Well, and I think it’s a cover because it’s a person. I’ll be honest with you Sid a lot of people who never studied maybe the Koran or what Islam really teaches don’t really know what it teaches. If you just go by a Muslim who maybe on a talk show talking you know it sounds real simple.
Sid: Because you can pick and choose from the Koran and you can make it look peace loving or you can state what the words really mean.
Perry: Yeah. And if a person takes it literal then the Jihad, the war against infidels; their real mad; the real hatred to the Jews. And I have a friend of mine that’s a missionary and sometimes he goes to an Islamic countries. And he says “In America, he says to be honest they don’t like what our government does but they like me; when you bring up Israel and the Jews he says I can’t even talk about it because he says they get violent, at a table in a taxi. He says “You cannot even bring it up..” He said “Perry, it’s amazing.”
Sid: So why is it that in Europe even non-Moslems feel this hatred towards the Jew in Israel?
Perry: You know Sid I believe there is an actual spirit of anti-Christ. We know that according to John’s gospel there is a spirit of anti-Christ and then there is man called the Anti-Christ. And that spirit of the anti-christ produces a hatred toward anything that is truth.
Sid: I mean it’s got to be really manifest in a body called the United Nations based on there history.
Perry: Oh, and see if people even knew about the UN the security council is a lot of Islamic countries and Muslim countries and…
Sid: Oh, we’re out of time we’ll pick up here on tomorrow’s broadcast.

Sid: My guest is red hot for the Messiah Kynan Bridges. Kynan on yesterday’s broadcast I just wish that we had more time. I raised a question that a lot of our listeners have been thinking, they see a TV evangelist and he’s raising money and they say “Well he has a platform and people are going to give because he talks about giving.” Then they see pastors that raise money; he has a platform and people are going to give because he has that platform and I asked you I said “Well how does it work for the average Christian?” And besides that I’m going on TV evangelist and I’m a television evangelist so I can say this. But a lot of people raise funds with a greed motivation. If you give then God will be the great slot machine in the sky and you’ll get a thousand times more. Then they use manipulative language and people frankly are very turned off. What would you say? I threw a lot at you, but what would you say Kynan?
Kynan: Well first I’ll deal with the television evangelism part because I think that is very important and unfortunately within the last 15 to 20 years there has been a lot of abuse in Christendom as a whole as it relates to giving and prosperity and so forth. There are many people listening right now who have been discouraged by that I’ve even been a victim of manipulation; I’ve sown seeds and nothing happened. And I was frustrated with God and one of the things that is so important is motive. Our motive has to be our desire to please God. In fact, if you study 2nd Corinthians chapter 9 it says “Not grudgingly or of necessity.” Now the word necessity in Greek means necessity.
Sid: (Laughing)
Kynan: It means to give out of need; in other words we don’t just sow because we want something or need something in return. But we sow as an act of our obedience and worship of God and out of our love relationship with God. Now here’s the kicker, when we sow in faith and obedience God obligates Himself to meet us at the point of our faith and obedience and to manifest a great harvest in our obedience. So I think it’s very important to understand why you and I are to give, and why you and I are to be faithful to God. More importantly it’s important to understand that the word of God is true. I want to tell people this to someone listening now. You are already prospered, the moment you gave your heart to Yeshua the prosperity of God was upon your life. You simply need to know how to release that prosperity through obedience and through faith and through being where God has planted you. Which is another important key; you know if you do what God is calling you to do; if you are faithful where God has planted you will my friend, my brother, my sister experience the blessing of God. But I do want to share this because this is so important. When we teach favor in our congregation and when people get a hold of this teaching we are seeing miracles Sid. We are seeing people’s lives turnaround; in fact one time during one of our services I begin to make declarations for financial breakthrough over our congregation. We have several people there with businesses and we in literally a matter of days saw turnaround in people’s businesses. There was one young man who had a contracting business and he had no business for several months. In fact, his business was so slow he had to get another job and put his business on the shelf. Well that day we did the declaration the next day he gets a call from a person that owns you know like an apartment complex and they said “We want to get your bid on this complex.” Well he had been out of work so long he didn’t want to lose the business so he literally just told the lady “Well whatever the last person bid I’ll just do lower than that.” She said “No, you have to give me a number.” And they go back and forth for hours literally and he says “Well maybe $4000, $5,000 he’s just low balling out of fear.” And finally he comes up with a number that was so big and do ridiculous that he was afraid to tell the lady. Finally she begs him and says you have to tell me what the price is I promise you you’ll probably get it.” And he tells her the number and the lady says “Okay.” So out of nowhere he gets this huge, huge contract to do this apartment complex right after the favor decree over his life. And we see this all…
Sid: Now out of curiosity I walk in the favor of God I love it, but favor is not just financial areas. How does it work in things like sickness, in things like family relationships, in things like just… wherever you go people like you, people favor you. How is this working? Give me one testimony.
Kynan: Well you want one so I’ll give you one; there was a mother in our church her son actually had been involved in some criminal activity. He had a felony on his record; he couldn’t get a job; he couldn’t do anything really and she had been praying for his for many many years that he’d go on the straight and narrow. Well she got a hold of our teaching and that morning she actually brought her son and her husband and she actually began to declare that her whole family walk in the blessing of Abraham. Well that same day, somehow, when he was trying to get this job with all of this criminal activity on his record he passed the background check after applying to the same place and not being able to get passed the background check for months. He passes the background check; several weeks later he goes to court for a hearing about giving him prison time. And he stands before the judge and the judge just stares at him and says “There’s something different about you.” He says “Are you tired of seeing me son, and the guy says ‘Yeah.’” And the judge says “Case dismissed.” Literally wipes his record completely clean; he’s working and has a good job and everything’s flowing in his life.
Sid: What is your definition of Biblical favor?
Kynan: Well favor, there are a couple of definitions but I’ll use an Old Testament definition as we see in the life of Abraham and Joseph. In fact over there in Genesis 39 God talks with Joseph and He says “And the Lord was with Joseph, he was a prosperous man.” Now this was a Hebrew slave in a Egyptian house and later on there in that chapter he says “And God gave him favor in the sight of the Egyptians.” Well the Hebrew word for favor is the word “Chen.” And it means liking, it means preferential treatment. It means goodness or charm.” So the favor of God is really when God is smiling upon you in every area of your life. In your health, in your finances; in your relationships; in your ministry. It’s an all-encompassing reality where we are literally walking under an open heaven.
Sid: Now I had a friend who’s in heaven right now; his name was Dr. Derek Prince. And he used to always say “It’s so important to declare the scriptures over you.” How important is it to you and members of your congregation to do these favor declarations?
Kynan: Well we do them all the time in our church and those that follow our ministry whether it be online or any other medium used we are often declaring the word of God. And the reason why the word of God is so important is because the Bible says “In the beginning was the Word.” In fact, let me share this with you real quick. The Bible says that “The words of the just or a word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in pictures of silver,” that’s in Proverbs 25:11. We did a fast at our church where we went 21 days only declaring God’s word. And during this fast one of the young men in our congregation was going through some challenges on his job. In fact they brought in a new manager and the manager gave him a very negative report; his job was now in jeopardy and because we were on the 21 days of positive confession he was unable to complain about it. Well one day that manager invites them to go out to lunch his whole team, and she comes in and says “Can I carpool with you?” the same one that gave him a negative report. While in the car she says “Are there any complaints you have about me or this department?” And he says “You know what…” he remembered the fasting that we were doing. He said “You know what, I’m just thankful to have a job. I’m blessed I think that this is a wonderful place of employment and I just thank God for this opportunity.” The lady looks at him with a perplex look and she said “I’ve never heard anything like that in my life, what are you talking about?” She was so refreshed by it; she said “You know what I’m just blown away.” She gets back to the office the same one that tried to fire him recommends him for a promotion on his job. Two weeks later he gets promotion and a pay increase by his words. The Bible says “By your words you shall be justified and by your words you shall be condemned.”
Sid: Now on tomorrow’s broadcast tell me about your own mother when you proclaimed favor over her and got a physical healing. But again in your words why did you write the book “Supernatural Favor?” Why the 3 CD series “Favor Revolution?”
Kynan: Because the Body of Christ needs to tap into this prophetic understanding of how to dwell in the land of Goshen because if we don’t what is coming ahead will overtake us. But if we tap into this favor that has transformed my life we will be able to live in God’s abundant supply, spirit, soul and body.
Sid: What did God tell you is coming in the United States in reference to favor this year?
Kynan: Well the Lord. I actually had a dream. It was actually more of a vision I was standing in a field, it was a wheat field.
Sid: Oh no, I did it to myself I’m sorry we’ll pick up right here on tomorrow’s broadcast.
