Sid: Well, I know why my guest Steven Brooks is red hot for the Messiah, the last two days and by the way if you for some reason didn’t catch the last two days, go on our web www.sidroth.org. Sidroth.org. and you got to listen to these two days, because I believe that the average person would have folded, lost their faith. Probably my guess Steven is what did you say? You were living in a cardboard box, it got as cold as about eighteen degrees, you didn’t have money, you didn’t have food, you’re car wasn’t working, you didn’t have a job, none of your friends would help you. I would have imagined the devil could have pushed you over that line and you could have committed suicide pretty easily.
Steven: It was close Sid, I did feel like I was reaching a point where I was about to snap and I remember the turning point; the thing that was beginning to help me was that I realized that this was not God doing this to me; this was the devil. And one night I was reading my Bible, I told the Lord I said, “Lord it’s freezing, it’s cold, I’m hungry I haven’t eaten for days and this is absolutely miserable,” and I said “Lord, it can’t get any worse than this.” And Sid when I said, that it started raining.
Sid: Oh no!
Steven: It got worse, and my cardboard box wasn’t the commercial grade it was the amateur grade, it had no roof on it so my box got totally soaked, I had to go sit in my car which would not start, it was colder in the car than it was outside, just crazy. But, I remember I got upset, I said, “Lord, I’ve been told that it’s holy to be poor and that we’re suppose to suffer.” But I said, “Something is wrong, I’ve been greatly misinformed.” And the Lord said, “That is true and I want to teach you a truth now that I want to bless you and take care of you.” So for the first time I began to resist what the devil was doing instead of cooperating with it.
Sid: And as we found out on yesterdays broadcast, God so blessed you. You got a hundred fold offering which was a hundred fold return for the $4.00 that you had given the week before, you got a free room to live in, you got a job, today you’re married, you have children, you have a wonderful family; you have a worldwide ministry. And on yesterday’s broadcast we ended with that forty-five minute visitation you had from Jesus. What did He tell you?
Steven: One of the things that He was talking about, Sid is the importance of the increase of the anointing with His miracle power and we’re going to see things that are really going to boggle and challenge the intellects of even the scoffers and the doubters. And the creative miracles are going to come back into the church in a great degree and actually not even come back in a sense, but even surpass things that they saw during the days of the Book of Acts. And I have seen the Lord do creative miracles inwardly with people getting new parts inwardly hat were not there, whether it’s a new kidney, a new heart or even new vertebrae or things put back into the spine that were destroyed or deteriorated or gone or new disk. But now we’re going to begin to see the outward creative miracles. And that is what we are coming into in these last days there is a greater degree of that and the Lord encouraged me with that and put a great emphasis upon the importance of a faith that will hold on to him for this.
Sid: Now is this just you that is going to move in these creative miracles, is it just a few people that will move it? What did He show you?
Steven: Well, it’s like an apostolic mantle that’s being placed upon the church and so there will be individuals that move in it with remarkable signs and wonders. There will be many ministers that move in this, but I believe the anointing is going to be so strong that it will, anybody that wants to cooperate with the Holy Spirit will be a candidate to be anointed to move in miracle power.
Sid: Tell me about what’s going on with you, for instance what happened in Jerusalem, the creative miracles?
Steven: Well, one of the creative miracles, of course there were testimonies of people who had gotten up out of a, one lady got up out of a wheelchair, could not walk and doctors could not do anything for her spine completely healed. And many of I don’t want to say normal miracles, but there’s always all types of healings. But beginning to touch more with the creative miracles, there was a young man right around the age of probably around the age of fourteen years old who’s feet were just as flat as a pancake, he was totally flatfooted with no arches and he was one of the last people I actually prayed for in the healing line and as I went down the healing line praying for people we had some notable miracles of healing take place, but I had not yet seen a creative miracle. And when I got to him I asked him, “What was wrong?” He said, “I’m flatfooted,” his mother verified that. I said, “Well, let’s verify it even greater by taking off the shoes and socks.” And there were about twenty people to witness this, as I laid hands on him and asked the Lord Jesus to put new arches in his feet. Right there on the spot, brand new…you could see the bones move, you could see the indention of the foot go in and he has today two complete perfect arches. His mother even said even several days after the miracle, “His feet are absolutely perfect now.”
Sid: Now, take me back to that visitation that you had with the Lord, that forty-five minute visitation. What else did He tell you?
Steven: It’s the power also, the glory will attack the people and Sid, I believe in preaching the word, I believe in preaching the gospel, but there has to be the Lord was emphasizing that there has to be a manifestation of the power of the gospel and we have to believe Him for miracles. He even gave me a charge in a sense to believe Him for miracles; to not just be satisfied to have people wheeled off in wheel chairs or to have people left in conditions where they have to suffer for the rest of their life.
Sid: Now, let me ask you ask you a question, when I go to some of these great healing evangelist’s meeting I see praise God, wonderful miracles take place, but then I look at the wheelchair section and I see three or four hundred people in wheelchairs come in that way and leave that way. Are we coming into a day where we won’t see that?
Steven: Were coming into a day like Jesus’ ministry in the earth, see Jesus was the only person at that time moving in that level of power, but now we have a corporate body of Christ, which is all, which is the church and we’re going to see the body of Christ move in that type of power. And that’s one of things the Lord talked with me about is that there’s a gap. Because when you read the gospels in many of the times when the Lord would pray for people it said that they were all healed. And we very rarely see that where there’s a public meeting and every single person is healed. And but, even with Peter’s ministry in Acts Chapter 5 there was a time when Peter went out to pray for all the people that they were all healed. So we can’t confine it just to the Lord’s ministry we have to contend for that, to see that happened today where we literally have meetings and every single person that there is not one sick person left, everybody got healed.
Sid: I believe that’s coming very soon. And Steven, tell me why you wrote this brand new book, “The Sacred Anointing?”
Steven: Sid, in the year of 2006 was the year that the Lord Jesus put a healing anointing upon my life. That was brand new for me, I had ministered before that preaching, ministering with a prophetic ministry and words of knowledge and gifts of prophecy and the Lord was touching people, but suddenly a divine gift of healing was placed upon my life. The Lord, when He talked to me about it, He actually said, this is just a gift I want to give you. That is literally what he called it, a gift. And that’s what it is, it is just a gift that God gave me, I didn’t earn it, or anything like that, it was just a gift that God gave me and after that happened, I began to see healing miracles in every single meeting. And I was puzzled by it, I had never experience it before and it was new to me, it was like getting a new suit, I was almost a little uncomfortable with it, and I was so wanting to better understand how this whole thing works. And so one time the Lord came and talked to me at 3:00 in the morning and talked to me for thirty minutes and explained how the healing anointing works. And one of the things He said to me Sid, He said, “My anointing works the same way as you had an infection and you received an antibiotic to deal with that infection.” He said, “My healing anointing is the most powerful antibiotic; it will knock out any sickness or disease.” And He said, “The moment you lay hands on people and they believe and they mix their faith with the anointing,” He said, “My anointing will flow through you,” He said, “It is My anointing, but it will flow through you, it will flow through Your hands, it will go into the diseased areas of the bodies of the people,” and He said, “There will be at times instantaneous miracles.” but He said, “Other times the miracles may happen, two, six, or eight hours later because it takes awhile for the anointing to work once it goes in.”
Sid: Now, do you…I have to tell you, your book has literally a presence of God just comes off the pages, I believe that people that read your book will get that impartation, what do you think?
Steven: Sid, that’s one of the reasons I wrote the book, is because the Holy Spirit inspired me to teach the people how to move in that anointing, that’s what originally got me started was “Lord, how do I be more effective with this, how do I minister and release this anointing?” And so I wrote that book so that they could catch that anointing and operate in it successfully and see miracles happen in their own lives.
Sid: Well I know that between the book and the bonus CD…the book’s called the “Sacred Anointing” and the bonus CD is “Devine Visitations.” By the time they finish both of these exceptional tools, I believe that they will be so sensitive to the Holy Spirit; I believe that they will have a supernatural hunger to seek God beyond thing any they have ever done before. As a matter of fact I think that’s what accomplished from both of these tools. People want to the things of the world are just pulling them under and the anointing on this book will destroy those yokes so they can become the men and woman of God that they’ve been called to be.
Steven: Yes, the anointing not only can set us free, but once we’re free we can go out and set others free who are bound. And the anointing of the Lord Jesus Christ is the most powerful thing; our words that we can speak under the anointing of His Spirit have tremendous power. As we lay our hands on the sick and His anointing flows through our hands, it will heal the sick and that anointing can be so strong at times it is even feel like a fire, or like a liquid fire or an aspect of the glory just flowing through our bodies. And even natural electricity is a good parallel example in the earth of the way that the anointing can flow and can be conveyed.
