Sid Roth

SID: Okay. So Naim, what’s the word “Naim” mean, by the way?

 

NAIM: My name Naim, it’s the ruler name in Arabic. It means peacemaker. It means one who is tranquil, one who is stable.

 

SID: Hakeem, is he a peacemaker and tranquil except when he fights with you?

 

HAKEEM: Yes, he is.

 

SID: Let me ask you this because so few understand this, and that is soul ties. Hakeem, what is a soul tie? Give me some examples.

 

HAKEEM: Well a soul tie is basically a mutual bonding or knitting, or tie of the soul. It has to be two parties that are coming together in agreement. And so a soul tie can also be something financial. You can have a financial soul tie. Soul ties are established verbally, contractually.

 

SID: So I think in terms when I hear that someone had an intimate relationship before they were married and they say, well I guess it’s over, but that can be affecting them even today.

 

HAKEEM: Exactly. You know, a sexual encounter can establish a soul tie. And so but biblically when we think about a covenant, a legal soul tie is established by a man and a woman in marriage. But there are those who have been in past relationships who may have moved on to a new relationship and they’re feeling the effects or the trauma from that past one, even though they have a new one. And so sometimes we have to break and sever those pasts or even present soul ties and soul agreements because they had impacted our lives now. There are those who are now in new relationships that are affected by hurt, abuse, verbal abuse, all those things that have happened because of what is established in the past.

 

SID: It just keeps rolling on and on.

 

HAKEEM: It’s a cycle.

 

SID: Unless you know how to break that cycle you’re in trouble. You know another thing the Bible talks specifically about how bad a sexual sin outside of marriage is. And do you know why it’s so bad? Because you become one with that partner and every demon they have has legal access to enter you. I mean, that’s why it’s not that God is trying to hurt you, he’s trying to help you by letting you know this.

 

HAKEEM: Yes.

 

SID: Now tell me about a blockage involving financial risk.

 

HAKEEM: Well that’s where I got a revelation from the Lord because I found in my own finances, I worked in banking for some time, for seven times. So me working in banking I felt like I had an anointing of Joseph.

 

SID: You didn’t go to prison.

 

NAIM: Right. I didn’t see the manifestation, so I’m like, well God, I just got a new job, I get paid well, but I was finding some patterns. There was these, I felt like there was holes in my pocket. It was like I was sowing, I was tithing, I was doing the best that I can. I was obeying the Word of God, but naturally and financially I was hitting a wall. And so the Lord gave me a vision. When I went into a season of fasting, the Lord literally gave me a vision, and in this vision I saw a web. This web had all the jobs, the names of the jobs, the previous jobs that I had, the names were on this web, every name. And so they were stuck. And so as I was praying and God showed me this web then I literally saw these papers that were coming down from Heaven and on them were contracts and they had “Debt” on them, and my signature was on these contracts that were coming down. They were invoices, debt. I had to break and sever those old contracts that I had with human resources, those jobs that went in bankruptcy, the jobs that merged. The jobs that had financial or legal issues were impacting my finances. Even though I was moved on to a new employment, but spiritually, it was impacting me. So I had to sever and cut those webs, those cords, those soul agreements because my signature was on those documents when that job went into bankruptcy. And so I was finding holes in my finances. Once I got that revelation, God began to now show me how to break it, sever the soul agreement. I repented. I stood in the gap and right after that I saw instantaneously miracles, financially. My credit score went up 160 points. I saw checks that were coming in the mail out of nowhere. There were even jobs that I applied for five and six years ago, they were calling me, emailing me. This was a time where I believe that God would give me the revelation to break the soul agreement so that I can prosper. And so even those that are watching right now, I just sense that you felt like you were in a financial dilemma. You felt like you’ve been stuck, you’ve been tithing, you’ve been giving.

 

SID: By the way, I just heard there are people watching that everything they invest in goes sour, everything.

 

NAIM: Everything.

 

SID: Pray for them, too.

 

NAIM: Even your investments, even if you got stocks and you got bonds, things that you have saved, and you got CDs or you have money market accounts, or you have even an inheritance, anyone who wants to rob you of the inheritance and the blessing that God desires for you to walk in. And I break right now every illegal soul tie, every illegal agreement that has been established, every old job that merged or went out of business, that went in bankruptcy that are impacting you, I break its agreement. I break its influence. I break its power. I decree and declare that that this will be the season when you find prophetic breakthrough, financial breakthrough. You’re going to begin to see supernatural wealth being released in your life. You’re going to begin to see things happen because of those old paths, relationships that has affected you. I break you from the past. I break you from the hurt. I break you from the trauma. I break you free. Today, this is your day of liberty. This is the day you’re being set free. This is the day you’re accelerating. This is the day I declare and decree that you should [move into] a season of breakthrough. Receive it today.

 

SID: Real quick before we go off the air, you told me something that God showed you about the blessings connected with Israel and the embassy. Explain.

 

HAKEEM: Yes. God gave me a vision in prayer concerning America and its relationship with Israel. And one of the things that God showed me that there was going to be, the embassy was going to definitely move back to Jerusalem, and I saw that transfer taking place. Once that begins to take place, we’re going to begin to see one of the greatest revivals and one of the greatest awakenings, not only for America, for the world. I believe that there is a tipping point and God is raising up millennials. He’s raising up young people. He’s raising up the young generation. There is a tidal wave of God’s Glory that’s about to be released right now. And even as I’m talking to Sid, but even those that are watching right now, you’re a millennial, you’re even the oldest season generation, get ready. There is a merging that’s coming together. There is an explosion, there is a tidal wave of God’s Glory that’s about to be released. I’m telling you, there is a prophetic breakthrough. The blessings of the Lord will make it rich and has no sorrow. I break every sorrow. I break every trauma. Get ready. This is your season where you’re about to experience the miracle Glory. Some of you have been waiting on God, but God says the wait and delay is over. I break every curse. I break every soul agreement. This is your time. Get ready for prophetic breakthrough.

 

NAIM: And I even will say that those that are watching, I say the son and daughter of the Lord said that this will be the season of prophetic breakthrough. The Lord says this will be the season that you’re not just going to be anointed, but the Lord said, “But my Glory is about to converge.” And you’re about to see the presence of God like you’ve never known. Get ready for there is a global awakening that’s going to start in your house and there’s going to be a supernatural current of God’s power, his thrust, his presence. You’re about to see the supernatural. Creative miracles are about to be your portion, creative miracles. You’re going to see limbs grown. You’re going to see eyes begin to grow. You’re going to see things change around about you. Get ready because God says this Glory is coming upon you, not for this age, but ages to come. Get ready and receive it now in Jesus’s mighty name.

 

SID: And I have got one word for you: Breakthrough!

SID: Adrian, you touched on it a little bit in the first segment. Tell me about why we should pay attention to numbers and names, and things like that.

 

ADRIAN: Sid, I believe that encoded in those numbers is a key that God wants us to open. You know, it’s just like you said before, when a number repeats itself and you see it all over the place, particularly in those situations, because the Bible says “By the mouth of two or three witnesses let every word be established.”

 

SID: And you talked about even names that keep coming up. Explain that.

 

ADRIAN: Names are so important. They’re not just a label on a person. And normally they call the root of the name or the etymology of the name has some significance in a person’s life. And so often God will speak to you through street names, company names, trucking names, and so on. And so when those things occur, I like to dabble and go deeper to find out what the root of that name means so it can become more powerful in what God is saying to us.

 

SID: And Adam, I mean, since I’ve been a baby believer all these years, every time I look around I’ll see a license, and I’m not looking for it, it just happens, 777, sometimes four sevens, but usually three sevens. And even on my Israeli passport, I couldn’t believe it, I opened it up, it said “777”. I’m glad you did this book with symbols. If I had your book I’d just look it up, but I don’t have it yet. What would you say God is trying to tell me.

 

ADAM: It can mean, for you personally, it could mean that you’re coming into a greater level of heavenly counsel of wisdom, so, that’s what 777 can mean. But I do also believe, and recently I had a dream of the spirit of Elijah. I believe that God is calling you into that realm, Sid, where there is that spirit of Elijah. You’re going to be a part of that where it’s going to prepare the platform for the Second Coming.

 

SID: You know Adam, there are even small things that are signs from God. Tell me the story about the ladybug.

 

ADAM: There was this unusual sign of this ladybug walking up and down my left thigh. I’m driving along and I was pretty exhausted. In Australia there’s a saying, “Like a stung mullet.” So the Lord said to me, “What do you see?” And I’m looking at this ladybug, and ladybugs actually preserve fruit. They protect the fruit from aphids. And pretty much what this was, the Lord was sending me a sign that he is strengthening me with an angel. I had this revelation that God was sending me an angel. See, on the left thigh, it means, symbolically, it means physical strength. The right thigh means spiritual strength. I had to just pray in the Holy Ghost and call it in. See prayer is actually prophetic and I had to pull it in from the unseen world and agree, and he sent his angels, and strengthen me. All of a sudden, I felt completely charged. I felt like the Energizer bunny. I felt completely full of energy ready for the next meeting, because I had to go to the next meeting as soon as I came home.

 

SID: Now, were you asking for that or did it just happen?

 

ADAM: It just came from left field. It was like, it was an unusual incident. And that’s how we can discern these things. It’s something that you, it’s not something that’s common. It’s something that’s unusual that happens, and you go, I haven’t seen that for years, or it might be a rare occurring thing, and you go, that’s too much of a coincidence.

 

SID: Well speaking of things that are kind of out of the ordinary, even God will even use sounds on a cell phone. Adrian, explain.

 

ADRIAN: I was traveling to minister in two churches, one morning, very early start, 5:00 in the morning, traveling in the car. And I heard the sound that my phone, the alert that my phone makes when it gets a text. I looked into my phone and there was no text there, so I knew instinctively that perhaps God was going to speak to me. At that point in time, playing on the MP3 or the iPod in the car, playing in the car was the testimony of Smith Wigglesworth. And what it revealed was that Smith Wigglesworth had once backslidden and that he used to tease his wife Polly when she came home from her meetings, and that was something that I never heard before. It was a revelation to me. I Tweet, because I had a phone call earlier that week from the pastor of the second church I was speaking in, and she told me that her son-in-law hadn’t been to church for six months, and in some sense he was backslidden. And so I went, ah, I think God is asking me to make reference to this story of Smith Wigglesworth as I shared at the second church. And as I shared, I wove Smith Wigglesworth’s testimony to what I shared in the second church.

 

SID: That takes boldness to do that.

 

ADRIAN: Exactly right. Adam describes it like you’re walking the plank and suddenly you get to the end of the plank, and then suddenly Jesus comes and does what he does. And so as I shared, I closed the meeting with rounding out. I said, “Anybody that what I shared, if you got to come forward, I’d love to pray with you.” And there would have been at least a dozen people that came forward. I was expecting the pastor’s son-in-law to be the one who would respond. And so when the first person was a woman, quite a tall woman with long gray hair, I was shocked when she said, “I’m the one.” So I said to her, “You’re the one what?” She said, “I’m the one who wants to rededicate my life to the Lord. Let me tell you a story. I was a nun defrocked by my order and I want to rededicate my life to the Lord.” The next person I came to was a lady with all different colors in her hair: purple, green, yellow, red, and so on. She said, “I’ve just come out of a lesbian relationship. I want to dedicate my life to the Lord.” And as I went down the line through to the pastor’s son-in-law, each person was rededicating their lives to the Lord.

 

SID: Aren’t you glad you took that risk?

 

ADRIAN: Oh I’m so glad I took that risk and incorporated what I felt what God was saying into my message. Incredible what God did that night.

 

SID: You know, when we come back, all of us have had bad dreams. Some of us think, well it was pizza. But some is from God. So what do you do with a bad, I mean a bad, I had one, a bad dream? We’ll be right back.

KYNAN: Welcome back. I’m so excited to be here with Shawn Bolz. We’re talking about the secrets of God for every single believer. And before the break, Shawn, we were talking about God divulging the secrets of his heart. But I want to ask you a question and you can be honest with me. We’re the only ones here, so you can tell me the truth. Does God always give you good words about people? Are they always sweet and mushy or are they kind of hard to release sometimes?

 

SHAWN: I think it’s both. I have a four and a two-year-old, so like sometimes, with my daughters, good love is also saying, no, you have to do this. There is course correction. There is building. And I remember my friend Ona [sp] and I went to Puerto Rico and we were ministering in a series of churches that were set up by a manager. And one of the churches we went into, I walked in there and I was so tired because there had been like 13 services in five days. And I was so tired, and I walked in the church, and I looked at the pastor, and I told my best friend Ona that pastor is having a [affair] right there. And we got to address this. I can’t preach this until we address it. We had to clear this out because we were given, I don’t know, what would you do? It’s not my normal to go see people’s sin, but I felt like God was showing me out of a place of grace and mercy for this whole church. He wanted to recover a church. And I feel like we throw around these charismatic buzz words, like I’m going to be a gatekeeper. Well when you’re a gatekeeper you’re closing the gates of Hell, not just opening the gates of Heaven.

 

KYNAN: Oh that’s so good. That’s good.

 

SHAWN: So asked the elders, I said, I went up to the woman who was hosting us, and I said, “Can you go find out, elders, and bring the pastor in, to return during worship time.” We got there a few minutes late. And so we all went back to the office and it was just the two elders and the two accountability people, and the pastor, and Ona and I. And I looked at him and I said, “Do you want to tell them you’re not a prophetic guy in your church. Do you want to tell them what I’m seeing, or do you want to tell them what I’m seeing about this woman?” And he said, he immediately goes, “I’m having an affair. I’m so sorry.” And begins to unfold the two-year history of this and they started to minister to that and deal with that as well, and try and create a plan. And I was like, okay, we’re going to leave now, because I didn’t know what to do. I’m like, “We’re going to leave now.” They said, “No, God loves our church. He loves everybody. Please stay and minister.” And it was so hard to take the stage then, but I could feel like a Father’s love, like the Father gave me the revelation because he loved the church.

 

KYNAN: Wow, that’s good.

 

SHAWN: So I immediately stepped into that place. Even this pastor had that [unintelligible]. I had stepped in that place of love and the church is doing really well now.

 

KYNAN: I love the restoration God speaks to us to restore and that’s so important. Tell me about the girl in the coffee shop.

 

SHAWN: That’s so cool. It was just a little bit ago. I was walking. I live in Studio City and so it’s where a lot of entertainment type people are. And I went to a coffee shop there and it’s totally full of people in that time of the morning. And she already ordered, so she’s way over there and I’m over here, and I go, “Hey you, you right there.” And she goes, “Me?” And she thought maybe I knew her or something. And the whole place turns into a reality TV show. Everyone is, what’s going on? And I said, “Hey, I just heard from God and he said get the script out of the trash can.” She goes, “What?” And I said, “Get the script out of the trash can. You heard me.” And she goes, “What are you saying?” And I said, “Get the screenplay out of the trash can now. God gave that to you. Don’t throw it away.” And she’s like, “No, this can’t be happening!” She’s screaming and freaking out, and the whole place is like starts clapping. It’s like, what’s happening. She goes, “This is my last copy. I’m leaving right now. I’ve deleted everything off my hard drive. I have one more screenplay I’m about to throw in the trash can right now. That’s my last copy.” And she goes, “This can’t be. I’m leaving because nothing is open for me here.” And I said, “Well God apparently loves your screenplay and he loves your writing gift, and you’re about to give up your destiny.” And she’s weeping.

 

KYNAN: Wow. Shawn, how can we begin to move in words of knowledge? You said it’s for everybody. I mean, you said that it’s not just for the superstars. It’s not just for the Shawn Bolz’s and all the famous ministers. But how can we, the average person, move in words of knowledge?

 

SHAWN: I think it’s a love based approach. So when you look at the people, first yourself, your immediate family, your friends that you love the most, you start to ask God, what are your thoughts about them, and then you start to pay attention to those downloads. A lot of people are waiting to hear, “This is the voice of God.” But the reality is that we share the same head space with God. It says in First Corinthians 2:16 that “We have the mind of Christ,” which means that when you’re reading the Bible for a life application, a scripture comes along and you’re like that’s me. Well you’re not that smart. That came from the Holy Spirit.

 

KYNAN: That’s right.

 

SHAWN: And so learning how to hear the downloads from God and then take steps on them, I tell people you’re a wimp if you give up after ten times. It’s going to take a thousand times before you have confidence because you have to learn the process. Just like no one wants to be around someone who’s learned how to play the piano the first 25 lessons or the first three years. It’s later on when they’ve developed something that it makes sense. So like learning how to take the steps of faith in the mall, at the coffee shop with your family, with your friends, it’s the same thing when you’re going up for healing. You’re praying for everyone who has a cold around you. You pray for everything. You [tip?] toe until their healing breaks. You don’t just go, I’m going to be in a meeting. It’s going to happen. You live a lifestyle where you’re including God in that way. So with words of knowledge you have to live a lifestyle to include God and say God, I want to hear your thoughts. I want to know what you’re thinking, show me.

 

KYNAN: I love that. Now, love compels you to give a word to a little boy playing soccer. Tell us about that.

 

SHAWN: This is wild. My friend and I were sitting there. He asked if I wanted to come to his kid’s soccer game, one of his ministry friends. We’re friends as well. And so we’re sitting watching his boy play, and there’s one kid who’s the underdog who no one was paying attention to. He just was very awkward, physically at that stage of growth like boys can be. And I had a heart pump probably because I was not coordinated [unintelligible] socially couldn’t play, connect to the kids on the team. And all of a sudden I just had this inspiration. I was like praying to God, God, this kid is awesome. Like the other kids are just treating him like he’s not. So Lord, what’s something about him that you would want to show me. And so and a few minutes later, I just had this one word and it was game of tag. And I called him, and I said, “Hey, what’s your Call of Duty score?” And he goes, “How do you know I play Call of Duty?” And I go, “What’s your score?” And he tells us and it’s one of the top in the nation. That’s a little boy. And I said, “What’s this?” And it was this game of tag along. And so all the other kids are, “You can play like that, wow!” And they all wanted to play games with him and learn from him. And my friend’s son, he actually ended up going out with him and they became best friends. Like months later, they were best friends. And it ended up that he was able to lead him to the Lord based on the fact that he told him the God experience behind that. At the moment, the kid didn’t know I had a God experience. It was months later that I could explain to him like, “Hey, my dad’s friend actually saw that from God and it actually brought value to you, and this is why.” And it changed his life.

 

KYNAN: Wow. Oh my God. Awesome. Listen, when we come back, you’re going to learn how God speaks in the most peculiar ways, and I believe eternity is about to invade time. Join us in just a little bit.
