It's Supernatural

SID: Someone you know, if you said, “It ain’t over” and they said, “Not for me.” What would you say to them?

 

KAREN: Well I think I would say to you today when the world looks at you and says it’s over, when people say to give up on your children, when people say to give up on your marriage or on your health, when they say it’s over that’s when God steps in and he says, “It’s not over.” He’s just giving you a launching pad for your destiny to launch you into a place of freedom. Because what you go through is a good indication of who you’re called to be. And what you may call a tombstone on earth, God says that’s not a tombstone, it’s just a mile marker of where he’s taking you and the destination he has for you.

 

SID: I like what you say about scars.

 

KAREN: Yes. Because I really believe that scars on earth are testimonies in heaven, because no matter what you go through, don’t let the scars that you have keep you hidden and bound, because what we have to realize is that our scars are proof that we have survived, that we didn’t die where the enemy tried to take us out. That when I look in the mirror and I see the scars that the enemy has tried to take me out with, I can say, you know what, that’s where I survived. That’s where God stepped in and took me out.

 

SID: Karen, explain true bravery to me.

 

KAREN: Okay. Well bravery for me was something that I thought that I could never attain. I thought it was something that was out of my reach. But true bravery, and what I had to come to realize is, true bravery is not the absence of fear. That’s where most people misunderstand. It’s not the absence of fear. It’s the realization that fear has no hold on you when you reside in the presence of the Almighty God.

 

SID: There are a lot of people that feel totally rejected and you like to talk about a woman that felt the same way. Tell me about her.

 

KAREN: Yes. Well there is the woman that I mentioned, the Samaritan woman in the Bible who every day walked this walk of shame to the well. And I find it so amazing that God met her at a well. But what I love is that she was rejected. She was rejected by her community. She was rejected by the people. She was rejected by other women. She was rejected by everyone. But here Jesus was. He showed up at the well with nothing to drink the water with because, here’s why. He wasn’t there for himself. He purposed and set out that day to meet her at the well. He knew there would be a woman coming who was rejected by society. And so many of us, we think we have to earn our way into the presence of God. And God says I’m already there waiting for you. I’m waiting for you in that secret place to meet you. I’m waiting for you, for you just to turn around and see me. So for you that may feel rejected today, that you may feel like that the world has turned their back on you, I want you to know that God would never leave you, never forsake you, never walk out on you. And he’s right there in the midst of whatever you’re going with, and he will never leave you.

 

SID: Now, that’s what God spoke to you about, his desire for these intentional supernatural encounters.

 

KAREN: Yes, that’s right.

 

SID: Dig deep and pray as God directs, right now.

 

KAREN: Lord, I just pray right now for every viewer, for every person that is watching this show, today I pray that right where they’re at, right where they’re sitting, if they’re at work, if they’re in a car line, if they’re at the grocery store, no matter where they’re at, Lord, I pray that you would touch their life right now. Make yourself real to them. Make yourself known to them. Let them see you. Let them hear your voice and let them feel your all-consuming power and your love surround them. Lord, I pray that right now as they’re sitting there watching, Lord, that whatever they’re walking through, whatever they’re facing, Lord, that they will hear you call their name, that they will hear you say, I’m right here with you, and that they will take you by the hand, and they will walk out a journey to freedom as you bring healing and hope, and fulfillment back into their life.

 

SID: Three more words: It ain’t over.

SID: You know what is so wonderful, it’s wonderful that you’re in the presence. It’s wonderful you have all these encounters. But when you teach about it, others do. Tell me about the person that heard your teaching and went into a cancer ward.

 

KYNAN: You know, this is amazing. Every time we teach on the presence, people get activated, people get released, people get reset. They get restored. You know, this is an amazing situation. I was teaching about the presence of God. And there’s a person there hearing the teaching and immediately they catch the revelation. The same day they go into to a cancer ward where a man is dying. He’s on his last leg. The doctors say we can’t do anything to help you. He’s basically on his death bed, a bed of affliction. People have gathered around. This person goes into the ward, lays hands on him and says, “Be healed.” And they walk out of the ward.

 

SID: Now is this guy Jewish, because he had a lot of chutzpah? That’s a Hebrew word, it means nerve.

 

KYNAN: No, they weren’t, but they had a Jewish heart. And they went, and literally, the man’s situation turns around. He completely overcomes the cancer, defies all of the diagnosis that the doctor gave. That’s the power of God’s presence.

 

SID: Now, you used to teach that one of the keys is understanding the story in the Bible about the Mount of Transfiguration.

 

KYNAN: Absolutely. Jesus goes up to the mountain, in the Book of Mark, and he transfigures before them, and he reveals the Glory. Then they see the Glory cloud and they hear the voice from the cloud that says, “This is my son in whom I’m well pleased.” Now, Peter of course, says, “We should build tabernacles here: one for you, one for Moses, one for Elijah.” Jesus comes out of the vision, out of this manifest presence. And they go down to the mountain and there’s a demon waiting on them, a boy afflicted by the devil. Now this is amazing because this is a pattern of the presence for believers. Most people live for the mountain, but Jesus lived from the mountain.

 

SID: Say that again.

 

KYNAN: Most believers live for the mountain. In other words, we live for particular encounters. But Jesus lived from the mountain. In other words, because of God’s presence, when he came down from the mountain, he came down with power and authority, and that’s what God wants us to do, not to live for the presence, that’s great, but to live from it.

 

SID: So, when we have these encounters they’re for a purpose to fulfill our destiny.

 

KYNAN: Absolutely.

 

SID: This fellow, when he went in the cancer ward, if he hadn’t caught the vision and the presence of God, he would just pray for someone and that person would have died.

 

KYNAN: Absolutely. You see, God’s presence changes us. This is so important. It changes every part of our being. That’s why the Bible says Jesus had a transfiguration experience. You know what Sid, that wasn’t for him. That was for the disciples to see because the same word is used in Romans, Chapter 12. It says, “Be transformed by the renewing of your mind” or be transfigured by the renewing of your mind. God wants to transfigure us so that we can walk in power, we can walk in authority, we can walk in dominion, so that when we come down from the mountain every demon in the valley will tremble.

 

SID: Okay. The door is closed. You’re children are asleep. You have, tell me, five children?

 

KYNAN: Five, the number of grace.

 

SID: You have a congregation, the number of grace. I got that. Okay. The door is closed. It’s late at night, just you. What do you do?

 

KYNAN: Hallelujah.

 

SID: How do you worship God?

 

KYNAN: Thank you, Lord. [singing] This is the air I breathe. This is the air I breathe. Your Holy presence living in me. This is my daily bread. Thank you, Jesus. This is my daily bread. Your very word spoken to me and I, I’m desperate for you, Jesus. [singing in tongues]. [talking] Father, we thank you for your presence. In your presence is fullness of joy. In fact, the presence of God is invading the room right now. There’s someone watching, the Spirit of the Lord is touching you. You’re being healed. You’re being restored. You’re being touched by the power and presence of God. Your life will never be the same again. The Holy Spirit wants to come. He wants to touch you. The presence of God wants to manifest in your life. God is calling you to host the presence and to live a transfigured lifestyle so that you’ll never be the same. Hallelujah.

 

SID: Okay. You got your marching orders. I don’t know about you, but if I didn’t have work that I have to finish this day, I would be doing what he was just doing. [singing] I love you, Lord. I worship you. I worship you, Yeshua. You are the King of Kings. You are the Lord of Lords. I worship you, O God. I worship you. I hold your hand. I worship you, Lord. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. [talking] Oh, what a powerful show.

EDDIE: You’re the God of my freedom. You’re my liberty. You’re the one who sets me free. I lift my hands and give you glory. I lift my voice and give you praise. Oh-whoa. Lift your hands and praise the name of Jesus. Lift your hands and praise the name of Jesus. Lift your hands and praise the name of Jesus. He’s worthy. He’s worthy.

SID:    That is our job! That is our call! Prepare ye the way of the Lord. There’s a greater purpose than just I wrote a song when I was in college. It was called There Must Be Something More. And the words go like this. Because I work, eat sleep and that’s the way it goes. Because I work, eat sleep and that’s the way it goes. There must, there must, there must, THERE MUST! Be something more! Aren’t you SICK of same old same old?

 

AUDIENCE:  Yes!

 

SID:    There is more! There is more! There is more! Ryan, come here for a second. Ryan travels with me. And yesterday, this morning I think it was, I got a, or yesterday I got an email. Someone called in our ô800ö number and they said I’m a practicing homosexual and I love Jesus. Help! But he said something more. What did he say to you, Ryan?

 

RYAN: I called him this afternoon and he started crying immediately. And he said I wanna be free and I’ve been watching this show and Sid on the show said, he just turned to the camera and said Stop it! Stop what you’re doing! He goes I knew I had to stop at that moment. And he says I’m struggling but I’m desiring to live free every day. Thank you so much for calling. He felt the love. He just broke down. You know a man in his fifties. Just hungry to be changed!

 

AUDIENCE:  (CLAPPING)

 

SID:    There’s some miracles right here tonight. There are miracles, it’s already happening in the Spirit world. You must as well just throw in the towel (laughs) because you can’t fight against the Living God! Those prayers that have been prayed for some of you they’re too strong. As a matter of fact right at this moment, right at this second I want some people to pass from death to life. From hoping there is a God to KNOWING there is a God. From believing you see creation, there’s a Creator, from KNOWING the Creator. From being someone that doesn’t have a clue about what Eddie is doing right now to being someone doing the same thing! It’ll never, I promise you, it’ll never be easier than this moment! NEVER EVER EVER in your entire life. I’m not saying you can’t turn to God but I am saying it’ll never be easier and your parents didn’t raise dummies! Go for the gold! You’ve gone for the nothing. Now go for the gold! I’m reminded of a young girl. Her mother worked for me. Raised in the Church. Out on the streets selling her body. She went as low as a human can go. But her mother never gave up! I would see her on the streets in this small city. How could she do this? No, she knew too much. She knew better. But her mother did not stop praying! Her mother did not give up and I saw this young lady clean and smelling and looking like an angel worshipping God!

 

AUDIENCE:  (CLAPPING)

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?

JERAME: And so the Lord at that point begin to speak to me and He said this. He said: I want the Church to begin to discover the power of intimacy with the Holy Ghost. And so the Lord begin to speak to me about the presence of God that dwells upon and the Person that is within. See there’s a big difference! We got to understand the two. Some people they just receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and that’s it. You know they speak in tongues and they never ever get into the glory of God. They never get into the manifest presence of God. Spending time with Him to the point where He rubs off on them and then they begin to carry an anointing! And so there’s a big difference between the Person of the Holy Spirit on the inside and the anointing of God that rests on the outside!

 

AUDIENCE: Amen!

 

JERAME: And so the Lord told me He said I want you to teach the difference. Jesus said in John 14, He said this. He said the Holy Spirit will dwell within you and He’ll be upon you. You know 1st John 2:20 He says: As for you, you know all things because of the anointing that’s on your life. How many of you know that the term anointing is different from the term that Jesus said? Jesus said I will send Him to you, talking about the Holy Spirit. Now listen! Why do we need the Holy Spirit? Because the Holy Spirit will not speak on His own accord. The Bible tells us that He’ll speak only that which the Father speaks. It says that He’ll convict the world of their sin and He’ll prove Jesus and His power to the world around so that people will get saved! First Corinthians the 2nd chapter. It says: I come not with eloquence of speech or superior wisdom but with a demonstration of the Holy Ghost and power that your faith might not rely on a man but in God. And I read that and I went Yes, Lord! We need more power! And He said wrong answer!

 

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]

JERAME: And I went what? And He said read it again. It says I come not with eloquence of speech or superior wisdom but with a demonstration of the Holy Spirit – and He said Stop! And I went what? He goes you don’t need more power. You need more Holy Spirit!

 

AUDIENCE: [CLAPPING]

 

JERAME: And the Lord began to speak and He said this. He said: What I’m releasing in this season is the presence upon! It’s the presence upon! He said a lot of people have the Holy Spirit within but they haven’t learned how to activate the Presence upon! And so the Presence upon is the anointing. That’s literally what it means when John said: As for you, you know all things because you have an anointing from God. The word anointing means this: charisma. Charisma means what? The personality of God! And so literally what it’s saying is this. It’s that God wants to get you so close to Him that He begins to rub off on you!

 

AUDIENCE: Amen! Hallelujah!

 

JERAME: That His personality begins to rub off in your life.

 

AUDIENCE: Hallelujah!

 

JERAME: See so what that means is this. Is if you’re fearful and He rubs off on you He destroys fear and you become bold! What that means is that if you’re sick and He begins to rub Himself off on you that anointing of God comes. He removes, He breaks the yoke! How many of you know that you know Isaiah 10 it tell us it says the anointing oil breaks the yoke. See God is about to set a whole generation free from drugs and alcohol pornography, from demonic things, from witchcraft.

 

AUDIENCE: [APPLAUSE]

 

JERAME: And it’s not this seeker-sensitive you know version of Christianity where you barely get your toe in the water and we don’t want to offend anybody. Listen! You know on the day of Pentecost when the glory of God hit and they got filled they were being accused of what? Being drunk at 9 in the morning! One of the things we got to learn if we want to be used by God we got to lose our dignity. We got to lose our, we got to stop trying to dignify the process of God touching His people because here’s the thing. You’re no good to God unless you’re on fire!

 

AUDIENCE: Yes! Yes!

 

JERAME: You’re no good to Him unless you’re on fire! And the Holy Spirit is the one who brings fire!

 

AUDIENCE: Amen! Yes!

 

JERAME: And when you begin to get into His presence and you begin to recognize that He’s in you for a purpose because He wants to rub off on you so He can be upon you now that makes spending time with the Holy Spirit way more valuable and it brings the purpose out of why God gave Him to you! He didn’t just give Him to you to comfort you. He gave Him to you so that you would know God more! And not only would you know God more but you’ll be anointed for the purpose that He’s called you to! And how many of you know that we can’t do anything outside of God? I mean you got to understand something. If you can do it out of your own strength, it aren’t God! And I’ll tell you why? Because when it’s God is something that’s impossible to you!

 

AUDIENCE: Amen!

 

JERAME: See it wouldn’t bring God much glory if you could pull it off yourself. But the things that are impossible God pulls off for you because why? He wants to look good!

 

AUDIENCE: Amen! [LAUGHTER]

 

JERAME: And I’ll tell you what. I don’t care who you are or what you’re called to. If you’re called to business you can develop a business anointing. If you’re called to music or entertainment or worship God wants to give you creativity. If you’re called to evangelism, you’re called to preach the Gospel, if you’re called to ministry listen, you can do it out of you know the gifting and you can do it out of principles but when the anointing of God starts to flow everybody knows it! I remember I was preparing one night for the outpouring and I usually drive down the street. And I get in my car and I worship and the reason why is we got this demon called traffic in Southern California

.

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]

 

JERAME: And so I go early and so I can avoid the traffic. So I’m in my car worshipping the Lord and I’m praising about 30 minutes in and all of a sudden I get a knock on my window and I look over and I go, and a guy’s there and I roll down my window and the guy says oh, I’m so sorry. Jerame Nelson, like I didn’t know that you were praying here. I just can’t find the church and when the window rolls down the glory of God goes out the window and knocks him out in the power.

 

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]

 

JERAME: He falls in the middle of the road and I’m going, I’m looking, going whoa and a police officer pulls up. Now I’m going uh-oh! [laughs] And now I’m like yelling out the window going get up, man! The police are here!

 

AUDIENCE: [MORE LAUGHTER]

 

JERAME: And so the guy gets up and he tries to hold it together and when he gets up he’s like HA! And so I’m thinking in my head okay, this guy thinks we’re crazy. I’m thinking like they’re going to taser him.

 

AUDIENCE: [MORE LAUGHTER]

 

JERAME: And, and, and so, so the police officer rolls his window down and goes what are you guys doing? Why is he laid out in the middle of the street? And so I’m trying to think what do I tell him? And the guy goes JESUS!!

 

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHING AND CLAPPING]

 

JERAME: And you know what? The police officer shocked me. He goes what do you mean Jesus? I said oh, we’re hosting the revival down the street here. The fire and glory outpouring. And I said you know I’m the preacher. I’m getting ready. And he says really? My elbow’s messed up. Can your God heal it?

 

AUDIENCE: Oh, wow!

 

JERAME: That’s what he says in the window. And so I just said Yeah. In the name of Jesus be healed! And the guy goes oh my gosh. It’s better! And then I thought we got to get him saved so I said Hey. Get out of your car. And he went [screeching tire sound] and took off!

 

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHING]

 

JERAME: He took off. But you know what? It was a seed that was planted. But you know what I learned that day?

 

AUDIENCE: Yeah, yeah.

 

JERAME: Is that my spending time with God was causing something tangible to happen to the fact where someone knocked on my window and got knocked out in the power of God.

 

AUDIENCE: [LAUGHTER]
