It's Supernatural

AUDIENCE: [CLAPPING]

JERAME: And so I remember when the Lord spoke that to me I changed my attitude and all of a sudden my eyes opened up. And I began to see in the spirit. And I’ll tell you want to see in the spirit and the reason why is because when see in the spirit confidence happens. See one of the number one reasons that God wants to open your eyes is so you know Him more. That’s the number 1. But one of the second reasons why is because when you see confidence comes. You know my wife and I, Miranda, she’s not here today, she’s, you know, in Wisconsin getting ready to do a conference tonight. But, we travel all around the world. We’ve been to 37 nations in the last, you know, 5 years and preached the Gospel and some of those countries are some of the darkest places in the world. Indonesia, Africa, India. you know, we’ve gone to places where, where, you know, you’d better bring the Gospel with demonstration of power or you might lose your life. And when I say that I’m serious. And I remember one time we were in India. We were ministering and there was an army that showed up with guns and they’re in the back of the crusade. And I’m thinking, I’m thinking warily Okay, wow, this is not intimidating, you know – And I remember I’m watching this and all of a sudden my spiritual eyes open and I look to the back of the healing campaign and when I look back there and there was a large angel and he actually had the principality of the region in a headlock and he was going like this. And all of a sudden I realize if God is for us who can be against us? Who cares – And you know what happened is that night 5 deaf ears in a row opened and the army left and thousands of people got saved! And you see what happens is when our senses are activated, we can properly align ourselves with what God is doing and what happens is even the natural realm begins to disappear because what happens is He makes His realm so apparent to you that it takes over! See it could have been easy that night to get afraid and not be bold with the Gospel because I could be thrown in prison but it doesn’t matter because Jesus is greater than the enemy. And His, His desire for souls is greater than anything the enemy can, can stop. And you know we’ve had amazing testimonies of, of people that have been activated. I mean I was preaching the same message actually in Peru and, when we were there we had a team with us. We, we were doing mission stuff. And I was preaching to pastors and leaders on activating your spiritual senses. And one of the young guys there had never ever seen angels and he was questioning his heart if it was even real. And as we began to, to pray and as we began to ask God to open people’s spiritual eyes to see, all of a sudden he saw an angel for the first time ever in his life. I mean it became so real to him that, that he was literally shaking right there. And I’m believing that today that there’s going to be encounters like. And, and I believe that you’re one prayer away from activation. And, you know, it’s amazing, some of the greatest miracles that we’ve seen have come because of seeing or hearing God say to do something. And, and this is what I’ll tell you. Intimacy with God and obedience to His voice or His word or what He shows you releases the reality of the kingdom of God. Releases the power of God. I remember, you know, the same exact trip that we were in Scotland where Jesus visited me, I remember one last nights – This is actually a, a different sense. I’m going to, I’m going to switch over. God wants to open up our ears to hear His voice. Who, who, who wants to hear the voice of God?

AUDIENCE: Amen.

JERAME: Who wants to hear the sounds of God?

AUDIENCE: Amen.

JERAME: because I’ll tell you what. Adam and Eve heard the sound of God walking in the cool of the day. I don’t know what that sounds like. But I want to know. You know, was it woo, woo? Or was it like, you know, King Kong, like thump, poo, thump, poo?

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHING]

JERAME: Or what would that be like? You see these are kinds of things we got to think about because God wants us to be heavenly minded. He wants us to think about the things of God. Like I, you know Colossians 3 says set your mind and your affections on things above where Christ is seated because that’s where your life is. And you see too many Christians are too earthly minded they’re no heavenly good because they don’t focus on the word of God or the reality of heaven. If you want to see in the spirit one of the greatest keys is this. Read Revelations 4 and 5 over and over again. Read it over and over again. Continuously. Read it 50, 60, 70 times, because what happens is that meditation brings revelation and revelation brings manifestation! Who’s ever heard their name called and then turn around no one’s there? Raise your hands. Look at that. That’s like half the crowd. I believe it’s God calling your name. And just, I believe He’s activating your senses of hearing and He’s activating, you know, you into a place of hearing His voice. And I’ll tell you what. If I’m going to minister in the streets, I, I just want to be honest with you, I would rather have that sense of hearing be the sense that God opens up rather than visions or anything else. Because if I get a vision about somebody’s life then I got to interpret it. You know, and I see this, and it’s confusing sometimes. But do I want – the time I want visions is when I’m at home and I’m just hanging out with God, you know, and having encounters with Him and I got time to pray about it. But when I’m with other people I’d, I’d love to just hear the Lord say somebody’s left ankle right now needs to get healed and, you know, you give the word and then they get totally healed. And, and, and I believe that there’s power, you know, in, in the activation these senses and, and that God wants to totally heighten you in, in awareness of His presence. Amen? Who, who in here even as I’m talking you’re starting to get revelation on kind of how you’re geared? See because if you understand that, then that’s the strength of your gift mix but it doesn’t mean that you can’t have the other ones. See, the other ones you just ask God for them. You ask God for them and He gives them to you and, He’ll activate them. You have not because you ask not. Now let’s talk about some of the more unusual ones. Like the sense of smell. That’s kind of unusual, right? But who’s ever smelt a supernatural fragrance? See look, that’s a lot of people in the room. And, and, you know, I remember the first time that I smelled a fragrance. I was actually ministering, in Santa Rosa California. This is about 7, 8 years ago. And back in those days I mean I was like, the way I preached was really simple. It was fire, hell and brimstone. H! I was very passionate. I saw miracles though. I mean we saw tremendous miracles and signs and wonders but there was no love for people. And so I remember prophetically I saw some things that God wanted to deal with in this church. And I had this Elijah message all written up, you know, calling fire down from heaven. And – So I go and I was in my mind I’m thinking it’s going to be a night of repentance and we get there and I remember I stand up and I get in the pulpit and I pull out my Elijah message and when I do that the whole room fills with this fragrance and it was a smell of wine. And I mean it was supernatural. It wasn’t something that, it wasn’t a drunk guy in the back rolling around. I mean this place was filled with the fragrance of wine. And people started getting touched by God and it was very apparent. And I, I said to God, Lord what is going on right now? Like I got this message of fire. And this is what the Lord told me. He said Jerame, He said: You think that the way people get delivered and set free is by you rebuking them. He said that’s not it. I want to have a party. That’s what God told me. He said, I want to, He said the joy of the Lord is people’s strengths. And He gave me the Proverb that talks about how laughter does the body good like medicine. And He said you have the way you think that you should do this service but how about you flow with mine? How many of you know signs and wonders are given for what? Direction? How many of you know that we, we need to understand with every sign given there’s direction given. It’s not just something flippant that God does. And, you know we’d be foolish if we’re trying to get to the heart of, you know, Charlotte and we saw the sign and started hugging the sign. Right? Oh, Charlotte. That’s not Charlotte, that points to Charlotte. What, what do signs and wonders point to?
