Sid Roth - Want to Know the Holy Spirit More? Watch This Video with Perry Stone
Perry Stone was mentored in the supernatural as a young man, but few, unfortunately, had mentors like he had. Now Perry wants to teach you secrets from the invisible world, such as Angelic encounters, the coming Greater Glory, and even ancient rabbinical secrets from the Temple days. And frankly, I have never heard these before! Next, on "It's Supernatural"!
Sid Roth: Most people see you, and they think of a Prophecy Teacher, a Jewish roots teacher, and they don't know the superna... for instance, I don't think many of you know this. Did you know that he has an Angel that has followed he's third generational Angel that follows him now? What happens when that Angel shows up?
Perry Stone: I can I can say this, you know, really before the Lord, that I don't sense Him all the time. But probably on 10 different occasions, out of absolutely totally unexpected, not praying for it, not asking for it. When I have been in services, the shifting of the atmosphere is felt by everyone there, even people that are backslid or away from God can sense it. And there's usually almost a weeping that comes. There's a real, holiness of God that shows up. There's a real just, just an awareness of God, and awareness of the Holy Spirit that comes. And then what always happens, there either is a shifting in the sermon, totally without notes, without the I'll lay the Scripture the Bible on the pulpit, and just go into a realm of ministry. Or, there comes a very heavy prophetic word totally unexpected. And the other thing that I have noticed is that on one occasion we were in a transition in the ministry, a very heavy transition, and I was so down because more weight was coming to me, more heaviness and weight. And I I was complaining and said, "Lord, how can I do this, what You've asked me to do this? I can't physically do this". And I'm, whew! Whoo! I can hardly talk. This is what happens to me when we talk about this. And I was sitting in this big chair at my desk, and I turned this way, and I felt the hand come to the chair. When, when the hand came to my chair, every hair on my body stood up. See the Holy Spirit's presence works from let's say, in John 7, from the belly out. An Angelic presence is around you. You'll never feel it in, you'll feel the anointing stir, but you'll feel it out here. Well, every hair on my body stood up, and all of a sudden, a weeping came to me. And the weight within 10 minutes, the weight that was on me came off of me. And from that moment on, and I and really, I made a mistake. I made a mistake. My daddy always said that "Perry, when you feel this presence, stay in it, don't jump out of it", but I got so excited! It's this sounds crazy I jumped up and I ran through my office, and I ran to my secretary's office, beat the door down and, knocked on the door and said, "You will not believe what just happened! Ohhh my God, I can't believe what just happened"! Well, they're all excited. And I run to another office, then I realize, what am I doing? So I go back in there, hoping it's there, and it's not there now. I mean I'm like, "Perry, what did you do"? I mean what would have happened
Sid Roth: Yeah, what did you do?
Perry Stone: No! What would have happened if I would have stayed there? Now let me say this, and we're going to kind of flow this way for the people: One of the mistakes that I see in the contemporary Church is we customize services for the benefit of the people.
Sid Roth: Isn't that called "seeker sensitive"?
Perry Stone: Yes. But it's all customized for a timeframe. I've heard I've heard pastors say, "We're going to do a 55-minute service", everybody knows how long the sermon and the and the music is going to be. And here's the disservice we do to people: If we get them at the edge of the holy place, or we get them into the presence of God, we then pull them out prematurely. And it's like, a premature birth. When you have a premature birth, you don't you have an undeveloped baby. Something in it could be the heart, the lungs, or physically, it doesn't it doesn't totally develop, and it has to stay in the hospital so long, till the till the full development comes. And we pull people close to the presence of God, and I'm, I'm not saying everybody does this, but too many do and then we want them out by 12 because we're active, the kids' got ball in the afternoon, they want to go to the mall, whatever the case is. And I've and I feel so much for this generation, because a lot of them have experienced church, but not the Glory. And so, what we do, we customize the service, to adjust it to the not needs of the people, and but we adjust it to the activities of people. And what happens is you cannot encounter depths with God, until you move in the progression of the Spirit of God.
Sid Roth: Alright, let's switch gears for a second.
Perry Stone: Yeah. Okay.
Sid Roth: Because I, you have revelation, that you learned from rabbis, and I'm Jewish and I've never heard this revelation before. For instance, supernatural language, tongues, I've always been told, "Well, that didn't start till after"...
Perry Stone: Pentecost, right.
Sid Roth: ...yeah, "after Pentecost"! But you have learned differently. Tell me about that.
Perry Stone: Alright. It was in the 1990s. Rabbi Yehuda Getz was the head rabbi, one of the head rabbis in Jerusalem at the Western Wall Heritage Foundation. We met him at night. We would go in there at 10 and 11 o'clock at night because he would pray at night from like 11 till 3 in the morning, that was his prayer time. And he asked me what I believed. I gotta tell you this, this is humorous. So, and there's a picture of him right there. That's Rabbi Getz. That's the young Perry Stone on the the people can see that. The younger the younger version! So he what's he's doing right there, and I don't want to get sidetracked, he's showing me where the Ark of the Covenant was hidden, in a certain location under the Temple Mount. And I don't want to get into that, I'll be sidetracked. So we be he asked me what I believe, and I said, "You know what," he's kind of a mystic, so I'm going to just lay it on him. I said, "I believe in the Covenants", "I believe in the redemption of Covenants" and I said, "I believe in casting out devils", and he looked at me and he said, "There's a man at the Western Wall who prays who thinks he's Elijah, but he's not. Could you go cast the devil out of him for me"? It was hilarious! And that kind of bonded us at that point, and then I said this to him.
Sid Roth: I'm sure! Yeah!
Perry Stone: I said this to him. I said, "I also believe in speaking with other tongues, which is the prayer language of the Holy Spirit". And he looked at me without blinking. He said, "Oh, you mean the language of God", and I went, "Wait a minute. What do you know about the language of God"? I'm thinking I'm thinking he's thinking of the Hebrew language or something like that. And he said, "Well, we have a Jewish tradition," and he said, "I believe it, that on the Day of Atonement, when the High Priest would go into the Holy of Holies, God gave him a tongue to communicate in, a language that he was not familiar with, that only Him and God could talk in, and no one could hear it". And I said, "Well why would that be"? He said, "So that Satan and the ", "its spirits could not interfere with what he was saying".
Sid Roth: You thought that was amazing, that they spoke in tongues? Wait till you hear about this! I mean this is even more amazing! I just want to mention something about Perry's father's uncle. His name was Uncle Rufus. Did you know that Uncle Rufus was, how educated was he?
Perry Stone: Third grade, third grade only. Yeah.
Sid Roth: Third grade only. Uncle Rufus could speak in any language of anyone he spoke to.
Perry Stone: Yes.
Sid Roth: Third-grade education, and preach the Gospel!
Perry Stone: That's right.
Sid Roth: And Perry prophesied I heard it come out of his mouth a little earlier before we went on the air that these gifts that were imparted to him, he is going to start imparting them to you. We'll be right back.
Perry Stone: Hallelujah!
Sid Roth: Okay, Perry.
Perry Stone: Yeah.
Sid Roth: this is amazing to me! Tell me about "The Breath of the Holies",
Perry Stone: Okay.
Sid Roth: from these ancient rabbis' teachings.
Perry Stone: Yeah. Okay. There was a tradition that in the Tabernacle of Moses, you knew when the Glory of the Lord came down, by number one, the sound of a man breathing. It would be like breath, like deep inhale, deep exhale like, like a wind, blowing! And the second way you would know is the, where you have the chamber of the inner court and the Holy of Holies, we call it where the inner curtains were, the curtains would start moving like a man's lungs breathing. They would expand in and out. And this became known as "the breath of the Holies". Now what is interesting is in Hebrew, the word "breath", "wind", and "spirit" is the same word, you have to read the context of the verse to see what it's speaking about. It's "Ruach", and the "Ruach Ha'Kodesh" means "the Holy Spirit". Now if you if you start tracing this down, this is in the Tabernacle of Moses. It became known as "Breath of the Holy Place", "Breath of the Holies", "Holy Breath", "Holy Spirit". So in other words, that breathing sound was a manifestation of the Ruach Ha'Kodesh, which is the Holy Spirit, or the Spirit that's Holy, the Spirit of God. And the interesting thing about that is if you come to the New Testament in Acts chapter 2 verses 1-4 on the Day of Pentecost, "there was a sound from Heaven like a mighty rushing wind," and the Bible says, "it filled the house where they were seated".
Sid Roth: Just before your dad was promoted to Heaven, he gave you some advice. What did you tell you?
Perry Stone: Okay. We're sitting in the house, and he had was 78 years of age at the time, and he said, "I had a dream". And he said in this and I'm going to make the dream real short, but he said, "In this dream, I'm at a church service, and I'm seeing the enemy attack people. I'm seeing him attack people". And he talked about the sexual sins, he talked about temptation, he talked about pressures, he talked about depression. He said all this was coming against God's people. And then he said, "The Lord told me this," and he said, "I'm going to tell you this because I'm not going to live long enough to tell people this. I can't go out and preach now", because he was getting up there in years. And so I said, "Well okay, what is it"? He says, "Now when the Spirit of God quickens this to you, you tell people that the solution to the attacks that are coming", and this is his exact words, "they must learn to pray excessively in the Spirit". And so I said, "Dad, what do you mean by excessively"? He says, "Not your normal worshipping in church, not your normal praying in the Spirit going to work," he said, "you're going to have to go into a prayer chamber, and pray in the Spirit, sometimes for 30 minutes to an hour to break stuff that's on ya". He said, "If you don't pray," he looked at me and says this, "if you and this generation does not learn how to pray in the Spirit, you're going to come under attacks that you're going to have a hard time coming out from", "out from under".
Sid Roth: It's mandatory.
Perry Stone: Yeah, it's a mandatory thing. And so when he said this to me about praying excessively, he says, "Now do you remember your Uncle Rufus"? Now let me explain who Uncle Rufus was, in case we get into a story about him. Rufus Dunford was my dad's uncle, and Rufus Dunford had a gift that when he was saved an filled with the Holy Spirit, he could "speak in diverse tongues" of any language in the world, go up to any foreigner in the coalfields of West Virginia that worked in the mines, of anywhere in the world, and speak to them, in tongues. Because a lot of those people came from other countries, and they couldn't speak English well, so nobody could witness to them. So he'd preach to them, and witness to them, and they just thought he knew the language! They even thought he was a Catholic priest when he'd speak Latin! They'd call him Father Dunford because they th they thought he was a Catholic priest!
Sid Roth: Perry, could you very quickly pray for everyone to be filled with the Holy Spirit, and speak in tongues?
Perry Stone: Alright, first thing we want to do: You have to repent, so let's pray a prayer of repentance. Everybody in the studio, if you want to agree with this and pray, this is fine. Say this with me: Father in Heaven, in the name of Jesus, I'm coming to You, asking You: Forgive me of all my sin, hidden sin, secret sins, public sins. Anything that's displeasing to You, God. forgive me, cleanse me, by the blood of Jesus, right now. Help me, Lord, to walk in victory, to walk in faith, to follow You, and to have deliverance in my life and heart. Today, I receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. Amen! Praise God! Amen! Amen!
Sid Roth: Now a Baptism.
Perry Stone: Now, this is going to take 2 minutes. I'm going to give you 3 things. I'm going to tell you what I tell folks. I've had uh 200,000 people baptized in the Holy Spirit in meetings in America, alright. Number one, the same faith that you're saved with is the same faith you receive the Holy Spirit with. You don't have to have a greater faith, more faith, pray more faith in. If you can believe what I'm saying, you have faith. Number two, when we ask the Holy Spirit to come in, you have to ask Him to come and baptize you, fill you. He will do what you ask Him, if you'll believe. Number three, the Bible says that when "they were filled", "they spoke with tongues as the Spirit gave utterance". And I like to say it this way: they spoke as the Spirit gave them inspired words. And when you're praying for the Holy Spirit, and you've asked Him to come in, it's happened to me, it happens to everybody I've ever met you will at some moment hear the Holy Spirit speaking to you, and it's your spirit praying, your spirit's receiving the power of God. And when you hear those words coming into your spirit, and you're hearing it, speak it with your mouth, and you'll feel the power of God be released, okay? So right now, say this with me. Everybody, let's pray this together. Say Heavenly Father, according to Your Word, according to Your Promise, I receive the gift of the Holy Ghost right now! Spirit of God, fill me! Baptize me! In God's power and with the Holy Spirit, right now! Say this with me: I receive the Holy Spirit now! Right now! In Jesus' name! Now lift your hands and start worshipping. Praise God! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Sid Roth: Now Perry was given 7 words from an Angel that changed his life, and it's going to change your life. Be right back.
Sid Roth: You heard 7 Angel words, that have changed your history.
Perry Stone: Yes.
Sid Roth: Tell me about them.
Perry Stone: Robert Kimberling was pastoring a church years ago in South Dakota. This happened to a woman who was a member of his church. It was in the 1920s during the Dust Bowl. Her cow had gotten cut on a fence, had maggots, was dying. Her husband had tuberculosis, was dying. They were about to lose their farm, and she was seeking God and I'm really abbreviating this and she saw, they call it a "dust devil", it's that wind that just starts stirring
Sid Roth: Right.
Perry Stone: like a little tornado, and it starts coming toward her, and she says, "Lord, what else can I take"? And all of a sudden, the dust ceased, and a man stepped out of it, and it was an Angel of the Lord. Told her that her husband would be healed, and they would live to birth more children, told her that the cow was going to be healed, and by the way, the maggots fell out of the cow's belly, God stitched the cow supernaturally, and the cow lived.
Sid Roth: You're stretching a lot of people now!
Perry Stone: Oh, listen, listen! Well, I hey! This and this is what 'cause she promised to give the cow to world missions if God healed it! Now when she said to this man, who was an Angel of God, "If God heals this cow, I'll sell it for world missions". The Angel got angry at her, and looked at her and said, "Liz," 7 words, "there are no if's in God's plan". There are no if's. And when brother Kimberling told me this, and it's a lot more detailed than that and all her husband got healed, they had more kids, but when he told me this, God changed my life, and let me explain why. I was praying a lot of prayers over my boy that was addicted to alcohol and drugs, who's now delivered. But I was praying back then, "Lord, if you'll just touch him". And I would say to my armorbearer, Robbie, "Robbie, if the Lord touches Jonathan," and I kept saying, "if", "if", "if". And I there would be so many times I'd say, "We're going to build this building if the money comes in". And the Lord told me, He said, "When you say 'if', you are always delaying it, and you're questioning Me". He said, "Think about 'if': 'If I ', you're saying, 'Well God can't do it.'" He said, "Do you realize the reason your boy has not been delivered is Satan can come before Me and say 'He doesn't even believe you, Perry Stone doesn't even believe You, because he's questioned if You're even able.'" And I said, "Lord, how do I change my prayer"? He said, "Quit saying if, and say when". I'd say, "When my boy gets delivered"!, "When my son comes to God"!, "When that money comes in"!, and I'm telling you, everything started changing, Sid, when I took the "if" out. See, a man came to Jesus and said, "If You will, make me whole", and Jesus said, "I will", He took the "if" out. And so there's the "if" of Satan. The "if" of Satan is, "If You be the Son of God,"
Sid Roth: Um-hmm.
Perry Stone: "If You", alright. The "if" of Satan is always making you doubt the Word. The only "if" God has is conditional on, "If my people are called by My name". The condition is not on God, because He doesn't have the "if", the condition's on us: Are we going to obey, okay? And so when I began to take the "if" out, and those 7 words I told brother Kimberling, I said, "You just changed my life"!, that story from 1929, right around '29, t the Depression. And I want people to know that when you pray, quit praying "if". Quit talking "if" after you pray, and start using the phrase, "Brother, let me tell you something. When God gets ready", "when God does this", "when this comes through, here's what we're going to do". And he taught me a lesson that I still to this day will catch myself, and I'll say, "God, forgive me. You have no 'if's' in Your plan". Because you know how I know He has no if's? Because it says, "the promises of God are yeah," "and amen"! Whoa ho!
Sid Roth: Yes and amen!
Perry Stone: Whoo!
Sid Roth: "Amen" means "so be it"!
