SID: God heard that prayer. It’s been a lifetime pursuit for Warren Marcus. And Warren, there was a street preacher that wouldn’t leave you alone and you wouldn’t leave him alone. And at 21 you finally said a prayer to make Jesus your Messiah and Lord, and you proceeded. Still, you wanted to know more about God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the one true God. But one day something happened to answer that prayer. You got a phone call from a friend in Israel.

WARREN: Yeah. Rick Amato called me and he’s at the site where the pendant was discovered. This pendant was discovered and this ancient pendant… And he was so overwhelmed. He was weeping on the phone and I’m going, what’s going on with you, Rick? And he said, this pendant is 400 years older than the Dead Sea scrolls, what’s etched into it in the ancient paleo Hebrew. And he said, it’s that prayer in Numbers six. And he said, when it was prayed over me in Hebrew, I could feel like honey, oil being dripped from my head to my feet. Warren, my life has changed. His name is upon me. And I went, what is he talking about? What happened was, it said to me… As I started looking at this, I said, there’s got to be something about this prayer for my friend to be so affected. This Gentiles, reading the Old Testament, and I’m a Jew, why am I being infected? I had that prayer said over me by other people. I’ve had that prayer pronounced over me.

SID: I’ve had it prayed over me many times.

WARREN: Right. It’s a beautiful prayer. Maybe I should just share it. It’s Numbers six, 24. It’s a simple prayer. You can find it in your Bibles. The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you. The Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. Now, that’s a beautiful prayer, but I didn’t have the experience that here, my friend, Rick Amato’s having. And I’m saying, how can I have that experience? Especially me, I’m already cognizant of the fact that God is real, from my childhood dream, from Ten Commandments, where I saw him on Mount Sinai. This thing that I felt, even when I received Yeshua, I can sense Yeshua personally, but the father, I knew about the father, but I didn’t know him.

SID: But you know what? There’s one more line after that prayer. And God says, he says he will put his name upon those that say this prayer. And in the Hebrew, my understanding is he will put his presence upon you. When God put his presence on the Jewish people for 40 years in the desert, what did that mean, as far as blessings?

WARREN: They are in the desert and they’re receiving this incredible favor, they’re receiving angelic protection, they have provision; manna, quail. When they got tired of eating manna of burgers, they got quail. The rock was hit. Water was provided in the middle of the desert to feed their flocks. They received incredible health. And also what was incredible, for 40 years, their shoes and clothes never wore out. Imagine the cleaning bills you could save, not having to buy new wardrobe.
