It's Supernatural

Sid: You know this is amazing this is Sid Roth with something more and I’m talking to Cherie Calbom. Cherie in my notes you have a pretty profound statement here it says “If you’re overweight that promotes inflammation which promotes every disease under the sun just about and inflammation promotes obesity.” So when you get rid of inflammation will you lose weight? Will you tell me about one person that did?

Cherie: Yes absolutely I have seen many people but Theresa maybe is the best example she called me with desperation. That gained 50 pounds of water weight that it seemed and her doctors both natural-path and allopath didn’t know what to do for just said “Get your affairs in order.” And so we got her on an anti-inflammation diet and a green juice before each meal. She called me back in 30 days later and said “The extra weight was all gone and she was now able to chop firewood and walk for a mile and they thought that she was dying.” I’ve seen over and over and over again people losing weight when they get on this diet and they always say “Wow, it just seems easy it’s just falling off of my body.” And it’s not a struggle and they’re still eating delicious food so when you get that inflammation under control your body does what it’s designed to do.

Sid: You know I have so many exciting things that you talk about in your books. Table salt, my wife has low blood pressure so every time we go out to dinner it’s salt to begin with and she goes wild with the salt shaker, what’s wrong with that?

Cherie: Well we can have good salt which is sea salt or Himalayan salt which is pink salt but the stuff on the table salt that’s out there in the restaurants is really bad. A lot of it now is a crude oil flake left over that they take and make…

Sid: So what does this do to the body?

Cherie: It is so detrimental to our body it’s toxic to our cells, it’s toxic to our whole system that is the salt that can truly elevate our blood pressure. We want to get that out of our diet we don’t want to use restaurant salt, but contrary to that is sea salt the good kind you’d have to go to a health food store usually to find it. Or the pink Himalayan salt that rich in minerals that is good for the body and it’s good for the adrenal glands.

Sid: And real quick because we have so much to cover you are not a big fan of the way most people cook it’s called microwave they heat their coffee, or their tea, they cook everything with the microwave what’s wrong with that?

Cherie: Microwave now we know from research puts toxic byproduct into your food and even into your coffee. And so I just don’t allow it in my home for use of anything.

Sid: So what’s wrong with…help me out what’s wrong with toxic food? I mean I don’t like the word but how bad is that?

Cherie: Toxins in the food, toxins can contribute to cancer and all sorts of other problems so we want to get the toxins out of our diet; we don’t want to use a cooking method that’s going to put toxicity into our food so on top of that microwave just destroys nutrients. So we want nutrient rich without the toxins.

Sid: Okay let’s talk a little bit about remedies for stress and adrenal fatigue; what is adrenal fatigue?

Cherie: So many people experience that today it’s not something that a lot of doctors recognize or will diagnose. It’s diagnosed through a saliva test and in measuring cortisol in different hours of the day. And many people because of their stress have the symptoms of this and don’t know why they feel tired or very very fatigued and yet when they’re so tired often times they don’t sleep well at night because their adrenals are pumping out Cortisol at wrong times of the day. And also Cortisol can get all messed up and even deposit fat in the body or keep us from losing weight and many many other symptoms can go with adrenal fatigue. So what we need to do is support our adrenals, that’s what my remedies book is all about, how to feed those adrenals and bring them back into harmony so that those glands can function normally again.

Sid: Now can we do this just with juicing and with regular food?

Cherie: Yes and some supplements like liquorish tea and things like that.

Sid: Hm.

Cherie: I’ve got the supplements in there that are very helpful for people as well so you may need a little extra for awhile and then just the juicing and just the diets got all of the remedies there and the supplements that will be very helpful for you. And then also to bring that stress down in our lives to figure out what’s important, what we can let go of and to make times to relax especially before we go to bed so we can begin to bring our system down to a place of calm so that we can sleep well and so that our adrenals can rejuvenate during the night.

Sid: Okay a lot of people have allergies; I notice at certain seasons my nose runs what do you think is causing that? I think I know that it’s got to do with the pollen and stuff but how can I stop it that’s a better question?

Cherie: Yes we’ve got to get to the root of it there’s always there’s always a roots to everything.

Sid: Ah ha.

Cherie: And it’s the immune system; we need to bring that immune system into better function. So we need to support the immune system and that again comes through diet, through juicing if you can juice if you can’t it’s other supplements that you can take to bring that immune system up to support it and improve the immune system function. And then you’re not going to be reacting to all of that stuff like pollen in the spring or it can be any time of year different pollens or dust mites or pet dander it’s all sorts of things people react to but you don’t have to be stuck in that place of reacting to that stuff all of the time.

Sid: Okay it appears Cherie as more and more people are getting GMO, Genetically Modified Foods, and is there any things wrong with us doing that it tastes better, it’s bigger, is it healthier?

Cherie: Genetically modified food isn’t and in the word of God it says “Don’t mix the seed.” And we are doing that with all sorts of… and it’s not only just seed we’re mixing in; we’re mixing in fish genes and pork genes and peanut genes and on and on into different plants and so forth. And it is very detrimental and when you look at research and especially some of the rat studies you see those poor animals that they put on GMO food for a year huge tumors all over their bodies, it’s really really alarming. And GMO foods GMO modified foods are going all over the world and the pollens are blowing around and its something that we must really avoid. Some of the top crops of GMO to look out for and really buy as organic are soy, corn, sugar beets now are GMO, canola, so canola oil is a big GMO crop. We’ve got to be really really informed…

Sid: Cherie they stick soy into almost everything today what’s wrong with soy that’s GMO?

Cherie: Soy is our top GMO crop and so soy oil and soy products some people are on soy, soy from breakfast, lunch to dinner. Soy derivatives known as textured vegetable protein ends up in energy bars and fillers and all sorts of packaged foods and it is so bad for us it’s not a good product anyway for the body. It’s a goitrogen, meaning it blocks iodine absorption and so that affects our thyroid. But on top of that being a GMO a top GMO product it’s going to add toxicity to the body so I would say look at the salad dressings because soy oil is in a lot even health food stores salad dressings. Be very aware about soy milk, I don’t recommend it at all. Almond or coconut or hemp milk are good choices. Soy ice cream, soy cheese avoid all of this stuff, get the soy out of your diet and choose other things there’s so many other choices we don’t need to be eating that at all.

Sid: Now why does it seem as though there’s an increase in allergies and asthma. You take these young kids that are allergic you give them tests and they say “Oh you’re allergic to 55 different things, well is this what you’re describing is this what occurs when you have these GMO’s and you’re eating the wrong kind of food?

Cherie: Yes it is. So the whole body is compromised, the immune system is compromised in this case and the entire system is compromised. And these poor children need help they need to be restored, renewed at the cellular level, they need a lot of fabulous nutrient rich foods. That’s why I go back to the juices again the vegetables juices again to get them into the system to rebuild the immune system to build the body up in cellular level and lots of organic vegetables and other great whole foods like God created and get all of the junk out of the diet…

Sid: But Cherie organic food is more expensive what would you say?

Cherie: I’d say choose it, please choose it and because it’s not more expensive in the end. What is your health worth? And if you’re sick at the other end you’re going to be paying a much bigger price at the drug store for over the counter medications or even worse for prescription medications. When you’re sick you’re going to be spending a lot more money; it is so well worth it to get organic food, get those pesticides and herbicides out of your diet and plus they’ve shown in study after study organic foods are much richer in all of the vitamins and minerals straight across the board.

Sid: Cherie tell me about that person just before the break you were telling me about someone from India.

Cherie: She called, and this was very exciting I talked to one of your producers she called your prayer line and said she had a large cyst on her ovary and no money, no insurance and no money for the surgery. Saw the show that you and I did before started juicing and prayed and prayed and within a number of months that cyst was completely gone, went back to her doctor and got a complete good bill of health report; no more cyst on her ovary. And she called your hotline praising God for that miraculous healing.

Sid: Now I know the book is brand new “The Anti-Inflammation Diet 28 Day to Restore Your Body and Feel Great” but you have been using these principals for a long time. How difficult is it for someone to go on this for 28 days; let’s be candid what good is it to get it and not do it?

Cherie: It is so easy and having worked now with really thousands of people it is not hard at all and even if you’re not in this country and you have different vegetables or different produce it is still easy because I work with people from all over the world. And it’s delicious and it’s not hard and you can do it and we make it very easy for you and you can still enjoy your food. And so breakfast, lunch and dinner we’ve got recipes for you to help you turn your life around, turn your health around.

Sid: You know as you’re speaking the presence of God is coming upon this I think God is pleased that believers will start taking care of the temple of the Holy Spirit. But God’s actually speaking to me there are people with arthritic fingers, if you will, and even in your wrist if you’ll move your fingers this is a freebie but you better start eating right things and you’ll see that you’re totally healed. And there are other people with back and neck problems and hip problems all of these joint problems yeah you can take care of it long term and your better because it might come back. But you have a freebie from God right now God has just healed your backs stand up and bend over. Do you remember the guy I was telling you about from outer Mongolia? I mean his back was broken in 5 places the prognosis was a wheelchair the rest of his life. I mean no hopeless but as a matter of fact Cherie you were hopeless give me some good news for the people that feel hopeless right now.

Cherie: I was so hopeless not just Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and fibromyalgia but a serious injury but we won’t go into that right now but it was very serious. I had no hope, no hope at all. And God said “There is hope, there is healing.” We partner with Him and we do our part and He does His part and I had broken bones and crushed knuckles and they reformed. And that was not juice that was the power of God that came on my hand to reform knuckles in my right hand that were just bone fragments and powder. God can do anything and when we partner with Him and do our part we are going to see miraculous healings where we can stand up and say “I feel fabulous and I want to join in with the army of God and do my part because the great outpouring the Holy Spirit is coming.” We don’t want to be sidelined we want to be part of it and we want to have vibrant health. We want to be one of those mighty men and women Joel 2 talks about where run on the wall you know with the rest of the army.

Sid: Tell me some of the things that you have seen that people have followed what you’re teaching in these 4 books that we’re offering and you have seen multiple times with your own eyes what has happened with these people?

Cherie: Oh I had a lady that was given up for dead, told go home get her affairs in order, cancer throughout her body. In 3 weeks this is truly true she got on my program and was mostly juicing and a tumor fell out of her body after 3½ weeks and then her whole health began to turn around and she is still alive today this is a decade or so later. I’ve had people… one lady with MS no hope at all totally discouraged; young woman trying to get through school nobody gave her any answers. Got on the program MS symptoms began to go away and she found though she had to stay with this diet if she got off of it the symptoms started coming back…

Sid: Cherie, what about so basically people can’t function if they don’t have energy if they’re in chronic pain. What about things and if they’re grossly overweight? What about things that basic?

Cherie: And I’ve seen things turn around that basic, people often times people that are low in energy right away they’ll say “One of the things they noticed on this program was that they got energy back and they started feeling alive.” And people saying too foggy brain that’s another big one that a lot of people have, I call it sugar brain or junk food brain.

Sid: (Laughing)

Cherie: The foggy brain goes away and I’ve had people say their prayer life has improved, they can hear the Spirit of the Lord speaking to them so much better…

Sid: You’re telling me Cherie that when someone gets their body working, not the way they’re used to, but the way that God created the body it even improves them hearing from God?

Cherie: Oh, I’ve heard it over and over again people so excited saying “Wow I’ve turned my Bible open and the scripture just leaped out at me and the Holy Spirit was speaking to me and I was able to pray and I heard the Holy Spirit speaking and that hasn’t happened in a long time with all of the foggy brain. It is true, truly, true give it a try. And also you mentioned obesity I’ve had so many people that have started on my program. Father Peter is one he did a 60 day juice fast he was hugely overweight in a 300 pound range and lost 60 pounds in 60 days by doing a vegetable juice fast. But you don’t have to do that you just start in the program and the weight is going to start coming off. I’ve had people that have lost 50, 60, 100 pounds, people have lost 5, 10 and 20 pounds. So whatever you need to lose this program will help you do that too.

Sid: …What’s going on with asthma Cherie?

Cherie: Well asthma as you know it is a bronchial thing it can be life threatening. Again it comes down to immune system responses, acidity, inflammation, many of the things that we’ve been talking about today and as you begin to bring balance to the body I’ve seen people with asthma bring that under control and make huge improvements in their health. So it’s amazing what can begin to happen as you give your body the right tools to do what it’s designed to do and that is to heal.

Sid: My guest by way of telephone at his home in Lincoln Park, New Jersey is Robert Inguanzo. Now Robert you had unfortunately what’s becoming more and more typical type of life with the drug culture but you were fully addicted to things like heroin and cocaine by the age of 21. If you had wanted to stop at that point could you have?

Robert: Sid I tried everything to stop I went through a drug program, I went to a psychiatrist and there was really nothing. I would stop for maybe for like a year, or two years on the methadone program but then I would always go back.

Sid: So how did you support your habit?

Robert: Well thank God I never really had to steal or anything like that I always had a prosperous business and that’s one of the reasons why my habit grew so much.

Sid: Did you have any close calls where you almost died? You hear about drug overdoses or mixing things.

Robert: Yes well one time I remember I did just cocaine and it was so much cocaine that I felt like my heart was freezing; I felt like I was going to go crazy. And I remember all I did was just get into bed and cover myself and I don’t know if it was that I passed out or went to sleep but I know that God delivered me from that that day, that would be the only time.

Sid: How did you start?

Robert: I started with marijuana at the age of 17.

Sid: Do you believe that there is a connection between smoking marijuana and then going to more advanced drugs?

Robert: Oh definitely, definitely, definitely. It’s you know, you start on marijuana and then you want more you want something strong you want something new. And that’s when I started taking pills like mescaline and things like that. Then somebody introduced me to heroin and I shot it and it felt so good I would only do it like Friday or Saturday evening and then it was Friday and Saturday. And then before I knew it it was Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and little by little it kept more and more. And I always thought I would have control over that because I never liked being under control I always wanted the control but never had anything control me but this was something that nothing could help me with this.

Sid: Was there a point that you wished that you had never opened that door and never been addicted or did you just enjoy it the whole trip?

Robert: No no it got to a point I would have to shoot heroin just to get straight it wasn’t even to get high it was just to not get sick.

Sid: Weren’t you afraid of losing your life or getting AIDS?

Robert: Sid when you have a habit like that you don’t even think of it. I mean my life I would walk up in the morning and the first thing that I would think of how to get high where to get it you know and things like that.

Sid: Were you afraid of getting arrested?

Robert: Well you really don’t think of it.

Sid: Huh.

Robert: You really don’t.

Sid: What’s your heritage? Were you born in America?

Robert: I was born in America my parents are Cuban.

Sid: Okay but well how did you get free of this horrible monkey on your back?

Robert: Well like I said I tried everything I was on methadone for so many years; I would get back on using drugs, I tried a psychiatrist, I tried even a drug program for a year and I always would go back. One day my cousin who used to drink a lot was an alcoholic I found out that somebody prayed for him and he was delivered instantly. I honestly didn’t believe it and so I had to seem him and when I saw him he said “Robert it’s true, it’s true I have no more desire to drink.” I asked him what happened and he told me what happened and who prayed for him. And to myself I said “I have to meet this lady and maybe she can do something with me.” I was desperate Sid, I was desperate to stop but it was stronger, the addiction was stronger than I was I was under total control it was like my whole life revolved around using drugs.

Sid: So did you go to this woman?

Robert: I went to this lady I remember they told me about a church that she went to and I went there on Friday and I told her about the problem. And she said “Robert I understand your problem I’ve dealt with a lot of people with the same situation that you are in now.” And she started to explain to me about demons and all of that and she said
Come Monday night to my house and we’re going to pray for you.” And I thought to myself “Well if I go to her house and she tells me to stand on my head for 5 hours and I will, I’ll do anything to get off drugs.” And you know I mean anything that anybody would tell me that would have delivered me I would have done. So I remember that Monday night I went to her house and it was there and it was her, her son and her daughter. They told me to sit down and relax don’t even pray just be quiet and just meditate on Jesus. I accepted the Lord of course and as she was praying I remember that it was not a prayer like I used to hear on TV or on the Catholic Church like I used to go every once and in a while. But she was actually talking to Jesus and she would ask Jesus for holy angels with swords of fire and all of this and then she started talking to the demons. I remember it’s funny now but I remember that she started talking to the demons of addiction and all of that. And I’m thinking to myself “Oh no what did I get myself into you know.” And I remember thinking “If the demons answer her I’m out of here.”

Sid: (Laughing)

Robert: (Laughing) But thank God I stayed I remember it took us 4 hours there was a manifestation I remember I tore my shirt because I felt something inside my chest trying to explode or come out.    

Sid: So why did you tear your shirt?

Robert: Because I was like…it was like trying to help it come out it was such a pain, something very strange in my chest I felt like something trying to come out so I tore my shirt you know. And I remember I fell to the floor and I started crying and crying and crying. As I’m crying I’m listening to a noise like (imitating sound of wind blowing) like that, like a wind very strong wind and I remember seeing even a black shadow I remember that. And after that they took me home and I went right to bed I was so like exhausted I didn’t even take a shower I didn’t even change my clothes I just jumped into bed and went to sleep. And when I woke up in the morning Sid everything looked different. My room looked like cleaner, I felt different and the first thing I really noticed was I didn’t have those thought on using drugs, how to get it or if I didn’t have it or you know…

Sid: What about I mean physiologically your body was craving, was your body craving this at all?

Robert: Sid that was the first miracle and that’s why I know that Jesus is for real. When I woke up when I used to wake up the first thing I would feel was like nervousness and like a sweating sometime and I woke up in such a peace it was incredible. Not only did the Lord take away the desire to use drugs but I had no sickness, no withdrawal symptoms at all nothing at all. And I know it was a miracle I know that it was God because if I stopped just for half a day I would start getting sick. And here I went I slept through the whole night without using drugs and I woke up and I had no desire and no sickness at all.

Sid: Now explain that wind that you felt there was like a war going on as you explained it going on inside of you and a wind… what happened when that wind hit you?

Robert: Well now I understand more after the next day I saw this lady and she explained to me exactly what happened because she would see all of these demons coming out.

Sid: She actually had the gift to be able to see them.

Robert: She did…yes, yes.

Sid: Hm.

Robert: Yes definitely.

Sid: And what did she tell you?

Robert: Well she told me that exactly what happened that it was demons that come inside a person, and as the devil came to you know to steal, kill destroy and all of that. And he wants to destroy my life. And that the Lord wanted to use me and He was going to help me use what happened in my pass to help other people.

Sid: So you became a believer, you sold out to the Lord you were set free, you met a wonderful Christian woman you got married in the church you had a baby she’s pregnant with the second baby you would define your marriage as a great marriage. You defined your marriage as being one of the happiest men in the world and then you had a minor surgery and they gave you a blood test and what did they find out?

Robert: Well they called me up like a week after the blood test because they had to take a blood test because they want to make sure that if I had any disease that I wouldn’t blame them afterwards so they wanted to make sure. So after a week they called me up and they said there was a problem with the blood test and they wanted to see me so when I went over there they told me that I was infected with the HIV virus with the virus that causes AIDS.

Sid: What was the first thing that crossed your mind?

Robert: I didn’t believe it I said to myself “God would never permit something like this here I am serving God, here I am with my wife who’s parents were pastors you know she grew up in the church I mean God would never permit me to die because of my wife and have her die because… and my girl die and the girl that wasn’t even born yet because my wife was 6 months pregnant.”

Sid: So they thought the whole family would have AIDS. Hold that thought we’ll pick up right here on tomorrow’s broadcast…

Sid: My guest by way of telephone is Elisabeth Syre and she’s from South Africa but I’m catching up with her in Virginia. She is a holocaust survivor that… it’s a miracle that she’s alive and she walks in miracles. But one of the greatest miracles, one of the greatest releases of miracles, a lot of people don’t think in these terms but there is a key to the release of miracles. It has to do with forgiving supernaturally. Tell me about that woman that you met I believe you said that she… you could tell she was involved in the holocaust except on the wrong side and she was probably taking care of women in the death camps that were ready to be murdered. Tell me about that woman.

Elisabeth: I met her in the area of Stuttgart in Germany in a meeting of the Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship. She was standing there hard faced, no smile, no expression and I knew that she needed to be touched by God, but somehow I felt “I wonder what is behind this face?” Then I saw the watch of my grandmother on my hand, on my wrist, which my grandmother died in the holocaust. So this scripture comes to my mind Psalm 126:5 for it says “If you sow in tears you shall reap in joy.” I just started to sow my watch onto that lady…

Sid: Wait a second Elisabeth! That watch was dear to you it had sentimental value that was from your grandmother. Probably the only thing you had.

Elisabeth: Yes.

Sid: How could you do that?

Elisabeth: I realized that I loved the Lord much more than anything else. It was like a sacrifice, something broke in me. I just had such a tremendous burning love for the Lord Yeshua, for Jesus Himself, that He died for me and He gave me life that I was alive I wasn’t dead. I actually had found life, I wasn’t in that hole in the ground anymore where there was no food for me. My bones from my head had not grown together because of a lack of milk as a baby, but here I am strong enough. “Lord I am so thankful for my life. I’m alive.” So what is that watch in comparison to a life. I took it off and I put it on her wrist and I said “This is from the Lord Himself for you, it’s a sacrifice for me. I want to tell you I love you no matter what you have done in the war” She burst out in tears fell on her knees, gave her life to the Lord, called her husband he was saved as well and after that she totally changed. I went on the next train in Germany was without any watch and I thought “How foolish could I be.” You know that was my feeling again. Then the women who I gave my grandmother’s watch to stood at the train station with a brand new watch in her hand she had just bought. She said to me “I have found a new life, I have found forgiveness in Yeshua, in Jesus. This is a sign of a new life and you can take it with you. I’ll keep the old watch of your mother.” I said “Thank you Lord you have forgiven me for having such a hard heart towards people.” She was forgiven by the Lord Himself. It says clearly in Psalm 61 it says “He will give us the oil of joy for mourning and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness for they might be called trees of righteousness the planting of the Lord.” I just realized suddenly something in me broke. I had forgiven a person who done probably the most awful deeds, but she was forgiven through the Lord Himself. Therefore the watch I am carrying right now speaks about new life. Many people get sick because they cannot forgive but forgiveness is the key to true joy, joy that comes from the inside not from the outside. I was so changed after that that I could face any person whether it would be a terrorist, or a Satanist, or whoever that might be, I knew that I had enemies such… in that forgiveness and joy. Everything was broken and I could continue. Then on that trip and I was speaking in many meetings over Europe, people gave me watches as a sign that they also wanted to forgive. So I came home to South Africa through the airport and in my pockets were over 40 watches and when I went through the airport…

Sid: I was thinking you might have had a problem going through customs with 40 watches (laughing).

Elisabeth: (Laughing) Yes it was clicking all over the place. They were not new watches but I had watches for Africa. Then the customs officer “Can you go back again we want to check it.” I opened my purse I said “Do you mean these coins?” He said “Oh go straight on.” I could bring over 40 watches to all the poor pastors of Cape Town people that we related to everyone got a watch. I told them the story and things have never been the same. They have a proper watch which they have never had before. I was free and the woman was free, and so this is something God gave me to share with you. That forgiveness is the key to miracles.

Sid: Elisabeth you’ve seen so many miracles, for instance, you have prayed for many women that couldn’t have babies that did. Two of them that actually had hysterectomies, tell me about one of these women.

Elisabeth: This was in Holland in Amsterdam. I prayed for a lady who had been to the doctors and could not receive babies. She came forward and I didn’t know what her story was, she had underpants of her husband with her as well in the meetings. She said “Would you lay hands on these pants?” I looked at the pastor and at the leadership and he laughed and he said “Carry on praying she’s got a lot of faith.” I laid hands, both hands on the pants, and suddenly what happened I was laughing myself, I found it quite a funny situation. She took those pants and said “It’s mine! It’s mine! It’s mine!” and she went back to her seat. The next year I came back and she was pregnant with twins. A year later, I think it was last year or the year before I saw 2 children on her arm, a little boy and a little girl. The girl is called Elisabeth and the boy is called David, the girl was called after me. God did a matching miracle there and it opened the doors in Amsterdam for many ministries.

Sid: You’ve prayed for women that been barren 15 or 20 years.

Elisabeth: Yes.

Sid: I mean that is… (laughing) but someone with a hysterectomy I mean talk about a miracle. One of the other keys you’ve mentioned to miracles or secrets is fear the Lord and respect what He does. What do you mean by that?

Elisabeth: To have full trust in Him and not to actually trust man in the first place. That sometimes takes a sacrifice because people will say “Oh be careful you know could be prosecuted for praying or for believing in this.” Still to put your faith on the line, this is what happened when I prayed for a pregnant mother in Cape Town who had, the doctors said she had water head baby who has no brains in her body, she need to abort it. She came to me and said “Can the Lord do a miracle?” I said “He is in miracles.” I prayed, I don’t lightly say something like that I really have to hear the Lord. I heard clearly the Lord said “Are you willing to put your whole ministry on the line for me?” I said “Yes Lord I will I love you too much.” Then I stood with this woman and by the time that the baby was being born, she believed she said “I believe that this baby is going to be fine.” We were the only two who believed it plus her husband. When we went into the hospital all the x-rays showed a water head and no brain, but by the time the baby was born a miracle happened. The baby started to shout, to scream, or to cry and started to drink from the mother straight away. I was in tears by that time because a baby without a brain cannot do that, cannot drink from a mother. The head looked totally normal. We saw a whole lot of doctors standing around this mother saying “We have to do more test. We have to do more test.” I went into the office of the hospital he took all the records that stated the baby was a cabbage and she dressed herself and her husband took all her clothes. We left the hospital with the baby and today that baby is 8 years old, normal brains goes, normally to school, healed in the womb of the mother. This is one of the miracles I will never forget it changed my whole heart to the Lord. I knew that He could so much more than I could do.

Sid: You know one of the keys that you were talking about is respecting what God is doing and what God is doing right now is having mercy on Israel. What God is doing right now is equipping Christians to move in the supernatural. What God is doing right at this moment is giving Christians Jewish hearts because it’s all coming together. Our ministry is operating in… I mean it’s beyond my wildest imagine. The fact that we’re on almost every home in Israel primetime secular television, other parts of the world. We have a book ministry almost 400, 000 of these books have been distributed to Russians and many of them are running with the clothing on their back to Israel.

Sid: We want everyone everywhere to hear the anointed shofar the rams horn. Why? Because I have a guest I’m speaking to him at his home in Valparaiso, Indiana. Jim Barbarossa. And Jim was instructed through a prophetic dream that he must blow the shofar, the rams horn. When he does this miracles take place. I believe it’s an end time sign and wonder but not only does miracles take place others that begin to understand the shofar and start blowing the shofar miracles take place when they blow the shofar. It’s a transferable anointing. At some point this week Jim I’m going to have you blow the shofar. And when you blow the shofar in a church no longer does miracles take place of healings and emotional miracles people get set free from fear and even pride, demons literally tremble what do you mean by that?

Jim: Well I have had people tell me that they can actually feel the presence of the room change that they know something took place. And at first people would ask me and I wouldn’t have an answer for them I just didn’t really understand them. But as I started to learn the learn showed me through the word, for example the book of Revelation chapter l verse 10 it says “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day and heard beside me a great voice as a trumpet. The voice of God is like that of a sound of shofar and when we’re obedient and we blow the shofar as He tells us we’re leasing like His voice in the atmosphere. And I’ve seen the presence of the room completely utterly change.

Sid: Well, I can tell you that when I traveled to do my television there a couple Bob and Janie DuVall that work in the ministry and they bring their two children. And there son Paul blows the shofar. I have them come into my hotel room and clear out (I’ve just been saying this a lot lately) clear out the demonic atmosphere he blows the shofar in the bedroom I’m staying and I literally feel like the atmospheres cleared out.

Jim: And it lines up with scripture because Ephesians 2:2 it says “Where in times past you walked according to the course of this world and according to prince of the power of the air.” The devil domain is the atmosphere that’s where he’s at. And when we’re obedient to the ordinance to sound the shofar we’re releasing that which is like the voice of God into the enemy’s camp. It’s like a bazooka were pounding oomph!, right into the enemy’s camp.

Sid: Now you told me that when you were in Africa this is where your wife had the dream about the shofar. You started blowing the shofar and all of these miracles started happening that’s when you realized. But then she had a second dream, tell me about that.

Jim: Well the second was that she was to come and tell me that I was to do more than blow the shofar but I was to have an understanding of why I blew the shofar. God was going to give me knowledge so that I could explain people why I would blow the shofar. And when we got home from that trip from Africa I have to say that I was not obedient quickly and I just kind of let it lie for awhile. But then the Lord started telling me to take it and use it and as I would take it and use it we started seeing more miracles, more healings, more things were happening. And at that time my cry was “God why? I know this is you but why are these things happening? If this is You it has to line up with the word, it has to be in the Bible.” Then I started to see. And the more I looked the more I sought the more I found and I found things like “The voice of God is like that of the sound of a trumpet” and that answered that question, why the atmosphere would clear. And there are just so many scriptural reference to the shofar and examples as to what can happen when we are obedient to blow it.

Sid: Jim besides the dream that your wife had there was something else that pushed you even further into blowing the shofar and seeing these miracles happen what was that?

Jim: Well in May of ’98 Carla and I were heading to New York to teach at a church in the area of witnessing. And on our way there we stopped at a church in Cleveland, Ohio. Met the Pastor once but we had never been there but they had just happened to be having a little conference of some sort that night and the Pastor said “I want you to take 10 minutes and I want you to share about your ministry, tell people about what you do and so on and so forth.” And I asked Carla I said “Well, what do you think we should do what should we talk about?” She said “Ask the Holy Spirit she’s a smart lady and I did that and the Holy Spirit told me to blow the shofar. And so when the time came and we were released to do that I blew the shofar and didn’t see anything happen, didn’t hear anything. The people let out a mighty shout when it was blown of course but at the end of that service the Pastor said “Has anybody got a testimony?” And I was totally amazed, a man came forward who spoke only in Spanish and spoke with an interpreter the man interpreted it into English so I could understand it. The man pointed at me and said “I wasn’t going to come here tonight because I’ve been in so much pain I couldn’t lift up my arm higher than my shoulder because the pain was so bad and when I saw that man with that horn God told me something great was going to happen when he sounded it; and when that horn was sounded the pain totally left my body. And he stood there waving that arm that he could not lift above his shoulder. Shortly after that a man was there got up and spoke prophetically to Carl and I and he said “God has not only called you to blow the trumpet but God has called you to teach and bring understanding so people know why miracles, healing why these things are happening. And when I heard that it just confirmed further what Carla had said to me in a dream, the dream that she had, that I was to become more and more knowledgeable and have a better understanding so that the people would be able to see that the shofar was not just for back then, but God is calling and raising people up to use it today.

Sid: As I mentioned you were amazed when you saw so much about the rams horn, or the shofar, or trumpet, but it all refers really outside of the silver trumpet in one instance it really refers to an animal’s horn; the Bible is loaded with that.

Jim: I was totally amazed when I saw that it was just trumpet I guess I must have just passed over it. But when I started to relate that it meant shofar then it just really started to come to life for me.

Sid: Give me just a few things that the shofar was used for in the Bible that we can use for today.

Jim: Well one of the areas that really spoke to me was found in Judges and it has to do with the enemy camp going into chaos and Gideon and the 300 were instructed to use a lantern and a ram’s horn. They surrounded the enemies camp. And I thought I think I would have rather had a tank but you know they only had a lantern and a rams horn. Well as they were obedient and they blew the rams horn it shattered the lamp the enemy who out numbered them 30, 40, 50, 100 times however big the numbers were but the enemies camp totally turned on itself, sword to sword and annihilated itself, totally wiped itself out. And I thought “If God would anoint a ram’s horn to do that then why would not God anoint a ram’s horn to do that today defend the enemies chaos.” And it really tied into one of the things that Carla had spoke to me. She said in the dream that she had she saw a dog running down the road with his tail between his legs. And that the Lord had said to her “That’s what happens to the enemy when you obey and blow the shofar.”

Sid: Now you’ve done the studies you have experimented by blowing the shofar and seen that God is honoring this today the same way that He did in the Bible. Then you wrote a book called “The Ministry of the Shofar” tell me about this book.

Jim: Well the book was something I had never planned on doing number 1. I was heading home from a conference one night and we had just blown the shofar at this conference and the Lord said to me “Write the Book.” And I said “Write what Book?” I was kind of lost and He made it very clear to me that I was to take all of the things that He had shown me from the scripture and all of the things that we had actually been walking out as we used the shofar. And we were take these and we were to put them in a book so that people could see what the Bible says about the shofar and how God is using it in this day and this stage that we live.

SID: So God put Jane in a situation where she became an apprentice of prayer. She literally sat at His feet to learn how to pray. Tell me one of the secrets of power of prayer that God showed you.

JANE: Yes. One of my favorites is called tapping into God’s heart. Because when you ask God what is on His heart first before presenting your concerns, you’re really giving Him free reign to speak about anything in your life or the life of the person you’re praying for.

SID: If I’m understanding you right, when you start every morning praying, is that the prayer you pray? Say it again.

JANE: Yes. I start—

SID: Tell me how you pray it.

JANE: I simply, after I’ve thanked God and praised him, I’ll say, “God, what is on Your heart today?

SID: That is so different. It’s normally a laundry list.

JANE: Yes. And I’ve heard amazing things by doing that. So for instance, one time a friend asked me over to her house to pray about a problem, and I said, “I would like to honor God first and ask Him what’s on his Heart.” When we did that, I was surprised by what God said to me. He said to me very clearly, “Your mother will not die this year.”

SID: Had she been sick?

JANE: No. She was in her 80’s, but she was very healthy.

SID: So that was a pizza dream.

JANE: No. I heard it again twice, very, very clearly. So I wrote it in my journal, not realizing that several months later this would be extremely important because three months later, my mother is stepping from her house into her garage at 9 p.m. at night. She falls. She sustains life-threatening injuries. No one hears her cry for help. So she lays on the garage floor for seven hours before someone, a neighbor, calls the police. So I get a phone call and immediately I’m reminded, God told me she’s not going to die this year, so I can stay calm. So I went to the hospital emergency room where the emergency room doctor says to me, “Her injuries are so severe, you would best call in your family members because she may not make it.” And he pulled up the x-rays, and I looked at those black and white facts, but they were no match for God’s truth. And I said to him, “She’ll be fine.”

SID: Wait a second, you’re a doctor. Is this guy a little upset?

JANE: He probably thought I was crazy.

SID: Meshugah. We like that word.

JANE: Right.

SID: It’s Hebrew for crazy.

JANE: Not only that. But he says, “Her injuries are so bad we have to ship her off to a level 1 trauma center.” So we go to the next hospital.

SID: But you’re convinced she’s not going to die.

JANE: Oh absolutely because God told me she was not going to die.

SID: God is so fabulous. Before she’s even sick, before she’s even injured you get the answer. I love it. Is that part of power prayer?

JANE: Oh absolutely. Absolutely. And because I knew what was on God’s heart that day it made the difference in making medical decisions for my mom. Because she ran into multiple complications as she recovered, and every time she did, I would just declare Psalm 118:17, my mother will not die, she will live to declare the Glory of God. And so all my decisions were based on the fact that I knew she would recover.

SID: You shared a little earlier about the way you used to pray and the way you pray now. Give me a real life example of the way you pray now.

JANE: Okay. One time I needed a Christmas gift for a friend and I had no idea what to get her. Now before I would have probably not even prayed about it, but if I had, I would have gotten, I would have said, “God give me wisdom please about what to buy her for a gift.” But then I would have gone from store to store, to store looking for items, buying one or two, bringing them home and then fretting about whether she would like them or whether I spent too much money or not enough money.

SID: You sound typical. Are you relating to her? I think you are.

JANE: But in reality, what I did was I sat down and I prayed. I said, “Lord, I have no idea what to get my friend. But I know You know. So would you show me what would bless her.” And instantly I get this impression, buy her a fleeced jacket. Well this was back when fleece first came out and it only came in sleeveless vests. So I corrected God and I said, “I’m sorry, but fleece doesn’t come in jackets. It only comes in vests. So what would she like?” And I hear again, a fleece jacket. So I thought well maybe this is a deception from the enemy. So using Matthew 18:18, “I bound the enemy from speaking to me.” And I asked a third time, “God, what would my friend like?” And of course, I hear fleece jacket. So I thought, well how can I confirm that this is God? My next question was, God, if this is You, would You show me where I can find it. And I get a picture in my mind of a store that’s in an area of town that I normally don’t shop in. So I felt let’s test this out. And I drive there, look at all the racks, and I said, “God, where is the fleece jacket?” I get to the clearance rack and there is one periwinkle fleece jacket in exactly my friend’s size at a great price. And so the beauty of power praying is one trip to the right store to buy the right item, and it saves time and money. My friend loved the present. It fit her perfectly.

SID: I happen to love that power principle that she pointed out rather than my laundry list to God. God, every morning pray, God, what is on your heart? I want to be a God pleaser. And I have to tell you that you are on his heart. He wanst you not to know about Him. He wants you to have experiential knowledge of Him. If you will tell God you’re sorry for your mistakes, believe the blood of Jesus washes them away as if they never happened, ask Him for help to turn from doing these wrong things and then say, Jesus, come inside of me, become my Lord, become real to me, I want experiential knowledge with you. You are on His heart.
