Sid Roth - He Knows Things About People That He Shouldn't Know
So I'm having dinner the other night with some friends of mine and there is a prophet there, a man that literally hears from God and speaks some of the thoughts of God about a person, and this man started prophesying over another person. He had never seen him before. His name was John Paul Jackson.
Sid Roth: You tell me. I heard him say that you were a prophet. I heard him say you specialize in dreams and then a number of other things, but it must be so strong. I mean, were you kind of taken aback that this stranger read your mail?
John Paul Jackson: I loved it. I called my wife and she said, 'now you know how other people feel when you come into the room and tell them'. Because it was such a wonderful thing to have happen. What happened, Sid, is this. God who is eternal sees outside of time and he sees what is going to happen to you and he will send various men and women to you or angels to you, or he will speak to you. He will appear to. He makes himself known to you to help you achieve the purpose for which he put you here on earth.
John Paul Jackson: I loved it. I called my wife and she said, 'now you know how other people feel when you come into the room and tell them'. Because it was such a wonderful thing to have happen. What happened, Sid, is this. God who is eternal sees outside of time and he sees what is going to happen to you and he will send various men and women to you or angels to you, or he will speak to you. He will appear to. He makes himself known to you to help you achieve the purpose for which he put you here on earth.
Sid Roth: And this prophet nailed him and then talked about his move that he was planning about and just one fact after another, after another. Everyone was overwhelmed because this prophet knew nothing. But the reason I have this prophet and the reason you're about to meet him is I was at a meeting. He never heard my name before. He's from Ghana. He knew nothing about me and I want you to see just a tiny bit of what he prophesied, and trust me, it's a tiny bit because it went on and on, and on. And some of the things you'll figure out, the others where I'm waiting for God to cause them to happen. But you know what, I believe they're going to happen and I believe that something special is going to happen to you. Let's go to that clip right now.
Dr. Charles Dixon: I have the word of the Lord that says I will raise you up and your voice will come out. Your voice is going to be heard on the airwaves and the internet. And God said, I'm going to begin to give you an awesome power. When I shook your hand, God told me he's taking you to another level and that I'm going to cause your words to go across the waters. And God said, many are going to come to the Kingdom of God. God said, I'm going to cause you to do this that I would say the average media or the average airwaves don't do it. You are going to be a radical for Jesus. And God said I'm going to begin to give you things that you're going to begin to do and talk about subjects that the average media will not do it because if they do they're going to fire them. But God said, "I'll put a fire into you like Jeremiah and I'm going to use you to minister to the Jews". I see you talking to businessmen. I see you talking to engineers. I see you talking to doctors. God is going to use because I'm anointing your body and I'm going to raise you up as the Jeremiah of your generation. You're going to speak the word of the Lord. You're going put prayers together. You're going to coddle it! And God said, and testimony is going to go out the internet and the airwaves, and the media.
Sid Roth: I don't know about you, but I am awed of what this gift is that's sitting right next to me. His name is Dr. Charles Dixon and he was raised in Ghana. He was going to be a priest and he had an encounter with God. And is it true they sent you to a psychiatrist?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Yes. They wanted to check my brain because it was so much, God was just using me and I began to know the Bible. I was teaching and preaching at the seminary, and they said, you cannot do that. So they sent me out to go check out the psychiatrist. I went three times and then when I was there, he said, wait a minute, there's nothing wrong with you. As a matter of fact, you had an encounter with God, and that's what happened.
Sid Roth: Okay. But then you heard God speak to you and said you were a prophet and you had a problem with that. Why?
Dr. Charles Dixon: As a matter of fact, let me give you background here. Because when I was conceived by my mother, she was a young girl, 15, my daddy was 17. And so of course, too young to get together, teenagers. So my dad, one day and my mom told my dad, 'I'm pregnant'. My dad asked the $6 million question: how did that happen? They were teenagers. You don't need to be rocket scientist to know that. So they tried to get rid of me. They tried to abort me. But see, what my mom and dad did not know that I was wonderful and fearful made. I was made in the image and likeness of God. And I carried a deep image of God and you can't kill the deep image of God. You can't abort the plan of God. The only person who can abort the plan of God is you, not even Satan, not me. So my mom and dad tried three times. My mom bled, but they thought they had gotten rid of me, but I kept growing, growing, growing. Just like Jeremiah, God said, 'before you were in your mother's womb and I knew you and ordained you as a prophet'. How can you kill the voice of God?
Sid Roth: So you have this encounter with God. They send you to a psychiatrist. The psychiatrist says you're okay, but you're not okay for the seminary.
Dr. Charles Dixon: Exactly.
Sid Roth: And then you hear the voice of God and he says you are a prophet. What did you think? What did you say?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Well because you said a Catholic seminary, so I was raised and I thought the only person and heard the voice of God was the pope. I hear the voice of God and God tells me, Isaiah, chapter 61, 'the spirit of Yahweh is upon you because God has anointed you'. He said all this. I said, wait a minute, as a young man I was excited. But when I went and told people they said, 'you better be careful. We told you not to read the Bible. You see, you're getting crazy already'. As a young man, I was afraid. I was confused.
Sid Roth: But as time passed you began to realize it was God speaking. What happened when you had a vision of the woman that was going to be your wife? Tell me about that.
Dr. Charles Dixon: Okay. I was traveling as a minister and I was single, and I received a phone call from the pastor to come to Miami and minister. I was traveling, so I was tired, and I told the pastor, no, I don't want to go. And so when I hang the phone, God showed me a vision. I said, 'God, what is this'? And God said, 'look out this'. I saw a beautiful lady in a red dress.
Sid Roth: I'll you what, you're going to meet that beautiful lady and you're going to find out that it was a true vision from God. Don't go away.
Sid Roth: So Charles is hearing voices. He's having visions. They're all turning out to be true. He really is a prophet and he really can hear God's voice. And then he has a vision of who his wife will be. And he goes to a meeting. He's a keynote speaker, and there is a woman there that is the exact person he saw in his vision of who is wife is going to be. And Beryl, you were a politician, so you were seated with the speakers and the celebrities, and he gave you a prophetic word when he first saw you. What was that word?
Beryl Dixon: Well the first thing out of his mouth was that he saw me involved in the governmental arena, and in fact, he said, 'i see you flying on the plane with the president of United States of America. You will be flying on air force one and people will ask why. And God said that, 'you are my handmaiden and I hand-picked you to be with the president.
Sid Roth: And what did you think?
Beryl Dixon: I thought, that's a false prophet.
Sid Roth: Why didn't you just say, you're supposed to be my wife? Come to your senses. What's the matter with you, Charles?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Because you don't use the prophetic word to manipulate people.
Sid Roth: Of course, but I don't know whether I could have held that back.
Dr. Charles Dixon: I was struggling, but I'm a mature prophet, and I've been in the ministry for so long, so I knew. It's the timing. If God speaks something to you, the timing...
Sid Roth: But she thinks you're a false prophet. So then how did it happen that you gave her three prophecies? Explain that.
Dr. Charles Dixon: Okay, one, we knew within two weeks that she was going to fly on the air force, she received a phone call from the White House.
Sid Roth: Really?
Beryl Dixon: I did. Actually, within the two-week period after receiving the Lord and me calling him a false prophet, I had a call from the White House and they said, 'the president would invite you to fly on air force one with him. This is the location you would meet him if you accept and you will fly out of the country with the president and meet with the president of another country'.
Sid Roth: So you immediately probably thought this guy is a real prophet.
Beryl Dixon: Well actually, at first I thought my staff was playing a joke on me because they heard of the prophecy.
Sid Roth: I see.
Beryl Dixon: So I did not return a call to the White House. And after the second call they wanted to know if I was going to respond. My staff said, we're not playing a joke, this is very serious. So I had them contact the White House and everything was arranged, and it was exactly as prophesied to me.
Sid Roth: Okay. When did you tell her that she's supposed to be your wife or did you never?
Dr. Charles Dixon: No, I told her. After we became friends she was doing business, a business, because she's a lawyer. God told her to do some legal things for me and then we became friends. So after a period of four, five, six months, one day we went for lunch and she asked me, because Beryl is very blunt, what is your intention.
Sid Roth: You know what you are interested in marrying him, right?
Beryl Dixon: No, I was not interested in him at all.
Dr. Charles Dixon: She told me that I was not her type.
Beryl Dixon: So I wanted to make sure that he understood that whatever relationship we had was purely professional and that God had only asked me to assist him legally. And most of the time when I was meeting different men traveling around the world I would find that they would be interested after a period of time. I wanted to ensure up front that that would not be his intention because I would not agree, acquiesce at all.
Sid Roth: Okay. So she tells you this good news and what do you do about it?
Dr. Charles Dixon: I told her that I'm interested in her and she told me point blank, you are not my type. Why? Because you're too short. I never knew I was short until I met Beryl.
Sid Roth: Okay. So how did you get to be man and wife?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Eventually I told her she was resistant, but then I asked her, I said, 'Beryl, would you do whatever God tells you to do'? She said yes. Then I hung the phone up. She called me and said, 'why did you ask me that question'? I said, 'three things are going to happen. You're going to have a dream. In the dream we're going to be married'. And I described the dream. 'you're going to be sitting on the edge of your bed and you're going to be planning a wedding. And the third thing is that you are going to be driving your black Mercedes Benz, and guess what, you're going to stop and be making wedding plans'.
Sid Roth: Making what?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Wedding plans for our wedding. So she laughed. She said, 'wait a minute, this is not going to happen'. When she had the first dream, when she had the dream that we're getting married, early in the morning she was having breakfast, I called her. I said, 'last night you had the dream, eh'?
Sid Roth: Wait a second. How did you know that she had that dream last night?
Dr. Charles Dixon: Because prophets download information from God.
Sid Roth: That's good enough for me. What about you? What did you think? You're having breakfast. You're minding your own business. You've had this dream and he's on the other end of the phone, and he's not your type.
Beryl Dixon: Well I decided that was only one. He said three, so I was still good. There were two more things that needed to happen and I did not believe they would happen.
Sid Roth: And?
Beryl Dixon: The second event occurred that he mentioned to me and he called after the second event. By then, I was crying. I said, 'God, you can't do this to me. You said you would give me the desires of my heart and this is not my desire'. And then the third thing happened and he called again. Of course, I mean, I'm a wise woman. I would never call him and tell him they happened. I didn't want this in the beginning. The third thing happened. I was prostrate before the Lord in tears and God finally spoke to me, and he said, 'this is not about you. This is about the kingdom. This is about my work and you are a very small, a minute part of this entire picture. I just hand-selected you for this because I want to use you in the gift and the anointing'.
Sid Roth: And yet, when you became man and wife there was something about the presence of God for the prophecy on him that jumped on you.
Beryl Dixon: Absolutely. The Bible says that 'the two become one flesh'. And he explained that to me. In fact, when he married, he said, 'i release the gift of the anointing that's in my life upon your life and I transfer what God has given me into your life'. And that transfer was a literal transfer from heaven, because right after that, everything I began to see in the realm of the spirit. I began to hear in the realm of the spirit in ways that I had never imagined.
Sid Roth: Can you give me a specific example.
Beryl Dixon: Surely. We went to a conference. I actually never lined people up to prophesy and probably would not. We went to a conference and he kept telling me, 'the gift is on you because you are a Dixon and you have to walk in the Dixon anointing'. And I thought, okay, I'm a Dixon, yes, but that anointing, no. And as much as I desired it, normally he would have me call people and he would prophesy and I may give a word or two. That particular time he had me call. But when I turned around, he said, 'i want you to prophesy to the first one'. I did. He left the room and left all 15 people there standing. And this was actually just a week after we were married we went to a conference, and I prophesied to every individual there. They came and testified, and the pastor stood up and testified. I knew then that there had been a transfer from heaven on my life.
Sid Roth: You must have panicked a little when you saw him walk out of the room.
Beryl Dixon: You know, God has a sense of humor. I actually did not see him walk out of the room.
Sid Roth: Okay.
Beryl Dixon: So I stood there with the mic calling for him and waiting like everyone else for him to arrive on the scene to prophesy.
Sid Roth: Now why did you walk out of the room?
Dr. Charles Dixon: I walked out of the room because, again, she said, God has got a sense of humor. And I waited until she turned her back and then I disappeared, and then she began to prophesy because she was doing good. So when she got in the middle of the, she was looking for me to prophesy, I wasn't there. So she was in the limelight. She had no choice but to continue. God will set us up to be blessed.
Sid Roth: You know what I believe? I believe that when the two of them pray for you, when we come back, that the gift of prophecy is going to start being activated in your life and he may even, or Beryl, that's his wife, may even prophesy to you. Be right back after this word. Don't go away.
Sid Roth: Hello. Sid Roth here with Charles and Beryl Dixon, and both of them move in what is known as prophecy. They know things that are going to happen in the future. But Charles, it increased dramatically when you had a visitation to heaven. Tell me about that.
Dr. Charles Dixon: One day, God invited me to go to heaven. I didn't know. I was just praying and all of a sudden somebody came in the room, a presence, light, bright, and now I know some angel then just prophesied out of body. I went to heaven and God began to show me things and tell me different things. And when I came back it totally transformed my anointing and my ministry.
Sid Roth: Beryl, you're the one that knows the most. What difference do you see since his trip to heaven?
Beryl Dixon: Well first I have to say that my husband had several trips to heaven. That was probably one of the ones.
Sid Roth: Listen, when I heard of this one I was going to leave you alone. But if you've had several, I haven't had any. What is this? I protest.
Beryl Dixon: And because of the level of the anointing that he walks in, he sees angels. We can be in the hotel, in the restaurant, in the service, in a studio. It doesn't matter. He knows and physically sees when the angel has entered the room and can tell you exactly the position of the angel and what they're doing, besides everything.
Sid Roth: Give me a couple of examples of people that you have prophesied over and what's happened to them.
Dr. Charles Dixon: I was in a meeting, a ministry and there was about 15 ministers before we would close the meeting. A gentleman whisked in, comes to sit down and the moment he sits down, God tells me to prophesy to him. The moment I looked over that man I had an open vision. What is an open vision? Just like you are watching the television. So I called the man, I told him, 'this is the word of the Lord. Don't declare bankruptcy'. And I prayed for him, and I told him, 'within a short time God is going to turn your finances around'. He began to cry. I thought, no big deal. At the end of the service the pastor and the gentleman called me to his office, the pastor's office, and he said, 'the reason why the gentleman was late is he was in his lawyer's office filling out the papers trying to declare bankruptcy'. I said, 'did you hear the word of the Lord'? And we went back and forth. So finally the pastor convinced him, 'you better listen to prophet Dixon'. Within three weeks, the guy had a contract, 1.6 million. See, the prophetic brings life. Beryl will tell you the last two weeks we were in the city that Beryl was having a conference and there was a gentleman who came and testified. He said, would you take it over.
Beryl Dixon: Sure. He came and testified that we came to the church for the very first time, didn't know anyone, the pastor or anyone, ministered to him that he was in a very difficult situation that actually had stripped his career from him. That it was involving a rape, but that he was innocent and that God would avenge. God would come in and God would set him free. But there was no possibility because it involved the military. They had the trial, we later found out, and he was accused of raping an individual. We came back the second time and said, 'God, you think that God forgot you, but God said, I don't have amnesia and you will be set free, and not only will you be set free, but your finances will be restored with increase'. We came the third time and I gave him a word and said, 'God said that you are about to walk in that breakthrough anointing and you're on the brink of walking in what God has spoken to you'. Now we've gone for the fourth time. He had his rank restored. They gave him the back pay. The lady who alleged the rape against him came and confessed that he was not the one, that it was another individual, and that she lied on him. Now all the lending property that we prophesied, he has now obtained and he is walking in the millionaire anointing.
Sid Roth: I can tell you what I need you two to do. I need you two to join hands. Would you do that? And I need you to look into the camera and pray a prayer of impartation and then prophesy whatever area God shows either of you. Would you do that now.
Dr. Charles Dixon: Father, I pray that as your children begin to watch this telecast you will release that spirit, that prophetic anointing that will become sensitive to the Spirit of God, that there will begin a flow that your name shall be glorified. We release it. Father, we speak it.
Beryl Dixon: Lord, stir up the anointing that you place into your children. Father, allow the prophetic anointing to rise up and to manifest itself that you may be glorified at this time. Lord God, release that which you declared in the heavens into the earthly realm in your children that they may be a testimony that you are still alive and that you are speaking now to your people in Jesus' name. Amen.
Dr. Charles Dixon: Amen.
Sid Roth: Charles, ask the Lord to prophesy to people, just for a minute now.
Dr. Charles Dixon: I'm beginning to see, there is a prophesy that God has shown me. When I get prophecies I tell Beryl because I forget it. So beryl, what are the prophecies I told you about the United States?
Beryl Dixon: Just a couple of weeks ago my husband began to prophesy and speak, and the Lord was showing him that in the Eastern portion of the United States that there was a fresh revival coming to that area, that God is beginning to cause a flame to what people in the past have seen as an area that's dead. But now the revival and the Holy Spirit is going to speak fresh and it is going to be a spark to call a revival even in this nation. And even in the political arena in that area God is getting ready to make a change. Where there is darkness there is now going to be light. Even policies are going to begin to change in the political arena because of the fresh anointing and revival that's coming to that area.
Sid Roth: There is such a presence of God here. There is such a presence of God here. I have a prophetic word for you and it's the surest prophetic word you'll ever hear. It comes from the Jewish prophet Daniel in the 12th chapter. This is what he says: 'those that are buried in the dust, some shall rise to everlasting life and some to everlasting condemnation'. So the Jewish scriptures talk about everlasting life or everlasting condemnation and rising from the dead. You don't just die and that's it. So the question is where is your everlasting? There is no other name given unto men in which we must be saved. Saved from what? Separated from our sins so that we can bask in the presence of God, in the glory of God, the peace of God. That peace that you've been feeling as we've been discussing, it's the peace of the glory of God, the peace of the Spirit of God. So you'll either one of two prayers, you must do it. Otherwise you won't know when your end will come and it's everlasting life or everlasting condemnation. You either say, God, tell me the truth about Jesus. Go for the gold right now and say, God, I repent of my sins. I believe that Jesus died in my place and I make him my Lord in Jesus' name. Amen.
