Sid: I heard a word from God when I was interviewing Nasir Siddiki yesterday and I did not state it, so I repent because I told God I would say it, but any time I heard something, but the anointing. Nassir when you explained how you had a condition that you were dying of as a Moslem that did not know the Messiah, and you had a visitation of the Messiah, the anointing got so strong that I heard a word. I heard, in fact you were talking about, do you remember you were talking about the pain, how unbearable the pain was from this condition; the right side of your face and body was totally disfigured. You had golf ball size blisters, your skin was a red as fire and I’m sure you don’t even want to think about how excruciating the pain was at that moment and when you said that, I heard the Holy Spirit say “There is someone listening to us that has a pain in their neck and their back because the Spirit of God is dealing with pain right now.” And I believe that if anyone were to move their neck that had pain; if any one were to bend their back over they would walk right into their healing in Yeshua’s Name, in Jesus Name. Now that I took care of my public repentance Nasir, you were very successful in business, you became a millionaire by age thirty-five; you had over a $1,000,000, you married to the woman that you worked with, Anita everything was storybook. You went on quite a honeymoon, a two month honeymoon?
Nasir: Ha-ha-ha, yes. I had been working for many, many years and so this was kind of making up for everything.
Sid: But the following year, the bottom fell out, what happened?
Nasir: Well, two things happened. Number one the economy went down, and number two the company got bought out and all of a sudden from being at the very very top I ended up being at the very bottom. We lost everything, we lost our home, we lost our cars, we lost our money.
Sid: But wait a second, you knew the Lord.
Nasir: Yes.
Sid: Did you think about leaving about leaving the Lord, did you think maybe you made a huge mistake? What did you think when the bottom fell out, I mean most people are great Christians when things are going good, but when things go bad, we find out what’s really going on inside of them.
Nasir: Well, here’s what happened, when I first gave my life to Christ I got hungry for the word and so I literally devoured the Bible. I read it from cover to cover and I would constantly be in the word.
Sid: I’ve heard your teaching, and you are a word man!
Nasir: Amen, so when this thing happened I knew immediately that it was not God trying to teach me something, but we really do have an enemy called the devil and he is there to steal, kill and to destroy. So the only anchor I had was Jesus and I would not let go of my anchor; I would not let go of standing on the word.
Sid: I have noticed, ha-ha that you have a very very tenacious faith. But as a matter of fact if you didn’t I’m not so sure you would have had the results with your wife Anita. So not only did the bottom fall out on you financially but your wife became pregnant which was fine, but it was at the peak of your difficulties. Then it got compounded, what happened?
Nasir: She collapsed outside of the mall and started to have what was called catatonic seizures or grandma seizures and finally she lost her eye sight on her right eye. Her hands twisted up on the right side, here feet twisted up and she became paralyzed. They took her to St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, they put twenty-eight needles in her head, diagnosed multiple sclerosis. Said, “That she would be a cripple for the rest of her life. They gave me the wheelchair and the catheter there is no cure for MS and absolutely nothing we can do to help her.
Sid: Paint me a picture of what she was like in her worst physical shape.
Nasir: She was paralyzed in bed, could not move, blind, needed help all the time and slowly loosing the rest of her organs.
Sid: Oh, my goodness, and you’ve got, you don’t have any money.
Nasir: Yes.
Sid: How, and she’s pregnant? Oh my goodness. How did you cope?
Nasir: We had no choice but to trust in the Lord, the only thing we had was a little bit of money for Christmas presents for our two sons, so what we did was we took that money and we bought some teaching, healing, material. In those days it was cassettes, today their CDs, because the most important thing was that my wife had to come out of this. And we played that twenty-four hours a day. Sid, I did not know much about the scriptures but I knew one scripture well, “Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” So for twenty-four hours a day, seven days week tenacity is the Word…
Sid: Okay, did you ever have the thought, “My wife will be like this forever and then die blind, paralyzed?”
Nasir: Yes, I had that thought not once but many many times, and just as much as she had to listen to the Word I had to listen to the Word because I had to get to the point where whatever the doctor’s said, whatever were the circumstances were factual but God’s word is higher than the circumstances. His Word is higher than what the doctor’s are saying, and until I got to that point where I believed God’s Word even more than I believed what I saw. Until we got to that point nothing would change, and as she listened to the word, twenty-four hours a day seven days a week, I couldn’t put medicine in her because there was no medicine, there was no cure. All I could do was put the Word in her and the Bible calls the Word medicine to your flesh.
Sid: Well, this is interesting, you had almost an immediate physical healing, your wife’s was gradual so you’re actually learning about how the word becomes flesh. And how long did it take for her to manifest her healing?
Nasir: It was a two year period and what was good was when we speak the word, but it’s even better when it speaks to us. Then when that word explodes on the inside of us that we know that we know, that we know that 2,000 years ago Jesus carried multiple sclerosis, you carried cancer and every single sickness and every disease and when that explodes on the inside of us all of a sudden we realize why are we carrying something that Jesus already took on our behalf. And over a two year period she started to get a little bit better and a little bit better and a little bit better and finally over two years every symptom of multiple sclerosis disappeared. Her eyesight came back; her feeling on the right side of her body came back. Her hands and her feet were completely healed. And she was totally, completely restored.
Sid: What about that little baby, she was pregnant?
Nasir: That baby came out when she was going through this, the baby was doing fine and the funny thing is this after she got healed the doctor said, “MS is going to be with you for the rest of your life, you can never get pregnant again.” Jesus said, “Get pregnant, show them that I have healed you.” Well, she got pregnant and that baby is about to turn sixteen years old.
Sid: Now, you know what happened to you by hearing the word 24 x 7; you were forced to because your wife had to.
Nasir: Yes.
Sid: So both of you were learning, your faith developed. Did you reach a point where you were sure she had been healed?
Nasir: Yes, the healing manifest not when we see the pain go away, that’s not when we receive our healing. We receive our healing when we actually believe the word and release our faith. Now we can no longer be moved by what we see now, we either have that anointing in us and everyday it is causing us to be restored.
Sid: Okay, you have six CD’s that we’re making available this week called “How to Receive and How to Keep Your Healing.” What type of feedback do you get when people go through a seminar you teach or listen to these six CD’s?
Nasir: First of all they realize that Jesus already took their sickness. Number two they realize how to appropriate their healing, and then number three they realize not only how to get healed but stayed healed. We’ve had tremendous number of testimonies coming in.
Sid: You and I have discussed that in like the Kathryn Kulman Ministry and many other ministries today lots of people get healed, but for some reason as time goes by they lose their healing. And I don’t hear anyone teaching on not only are you suppose to be healed but you’re not suppose to lose your healing.
Nasir: That’s right.
Sid: In fact percentage wise numbers of people lose their healing. In your opinion can anyone that has repented of their sins and walking with the Lord be healed today of anything?
Nasir: Yes, the Bible clearly says that Jesus carried every sickness and every disease and the word every means He did not leave one out. So yes, we can definitely get healed and the anointing heals people.
Sid: You know I’m reminded of a young man that many years ago he came to my office and he said, “God healed my eye sight, I don’t need glasses anymore.” And then a few days later he came to my office and he said, “I need glasses, what happened?” I didn’t have an answer for him.
