Sid Roth

SID: But how would you even know what to do with those words?

ROLAND: You know at that moment I didn’t. I was as shocked as them. I wasn’t sure really what to do. It was an invitation from the Lord into a moment. I think he was actually putting me through spiritual paces for what would come. Actually, this wasn’t an exercise in doing something with that. It was an exercise in knowing and it was an exercise in discerning and it was an exercise into leaning in and saying, “Yes,” to what the Father was opening my eyes to.

SID: But another thing that fascinates me about Roland is his work with the underground church and the miracles and the people coming to know Messiah. Tell me a few of those miracles.

ROLAND: Yeah. Yeah, there’s a massive move of God going on in the Middle East, in the country that we work in, Iran, particularly.

SID: Here’s what I’ve been told by experts. That outside of China the fastest growing church in the world, the last place you and I would think, Iran.

ROLAND: It’s exactly right. It’s one of the fastest growing churches in the world and it’s a movement of signs and wonders. It’s a movement of miracles, lots of visions and visitations. One testimony from one of the networks that we work with.

ROLAND: They were called into a meeting with quite an important person and thought they were in trouble and actually in a closed meeting were told, “The reason why we brought you here was our son was terminally ill. He was watching Christian television upstairs and he was touched by Jesus, walked down the stairs, which he wasn’t able to do, into our living room. What do we do about this person of Jesus? What do we do with this?” Miraculous.

SID: Yeah, beautiful.

ROLAND: Eight out of 10 people that we know that have come to Christ from Iran, it’s either through visions, dreams or direct visitations from Jesus.

SID: Tell me another person.

ROLAND: Yeah. This was here in Texas, where I’m from. It was a lady with a blind eye in the middle of worship. We began to release healing in the room and her eye popped open supernaturally, medically blind. We have it verified. And screamed, as you would if your eye suddenly opened. It wasn’t a reserved thing. She just began to explode and her blind eye was opened and healed in the presence of God.

SID: In the atmosphere of God all things—

ROLAND: Yes, in the atmosphere of God.

SID: .. all things are possible. Now 15 years ago, I managed to pry this out of him. He doesn’t share this too much but 15 years ago you had a new experience and you were called up to Heaven. Tell me about it.

ROLAND: Yeah. I don’t talk about this a lot. But yeah, 15 years ago was an introduction and it was a supernatural invitation and calling into rooms in Heaven. One particular place that I visited several times, it became known to me, aware that it was the nation strategy room.
