Our Guest Jason Noble
SID: How could you know that? How could you make a statement to a mother, that her son is dead, dead, dead? And I guess if he ever for some miracle became alive, he’d be brain dead.
JASON: Because I saw life in his eyes and I knew those two angels. I’d seen them before and I knew it. I walked out, we said, I mean he is walking out of the hospital and we held onto that. The next morning I came back though and it was about 9:00 AM and walk in and he’s still in bad shape. I mean, he was still in a coma. Doctors are still saying there was no hope. I walk up to his bed and I said, “John, this is Pastor Jason,” and we’d actually never met. I’d only been their pastor for three months at this point.
And I walked up to his bed and I said, “John, this is Pastor Jason.” And tears started rolling down his eyes and I said, “Do you want me to stay with you?” And he shook his head yes. And at that moment I felt like the Lord said, as a shepherd, there are times that I call pastors to leave the 99 for the one. And that’s what I’m calling you to do. And I stuck by his side. We saw God do incredible miracles. He walked out of the hospital completely healed and whole 16 days later.
SID: How old is John Smith now and what is his health like?
JASON: John Smith is 19 years old and he was cleared by all doctors 40 days after that. He is perfectly fine.
SID: There’s a word that God taught you. and most people don’t know what you’re really… They know what the word means, but they don’t know what you’re referring to. God said positioning. Did he speak to you with an audible voice?
JASON: And audible voice. Because I was wrestling with this. I go… And even before John’s accident, I was wrestling with reading the Book Of Acts, seeing people in incredible need today knowing God could do miracles that we read about in the Book Of Acts and throughout the New Testament, but not seeing it today. There’s a disconnect. And I was praying, “Lord, do what you did in the Book Of Acts today. We need you to show up. People need breakthrough.” And a week later, John Smith happened. And as we walked through that process, I go, “Okay Lord, I know we can’t dictate the outcomes of miracles. We can’t be really focused, but what do we need to do?”
And I started this study through the scripture of looking at every miracle and realizing that God always chooses to partner with us when he’s about to do a miracle or breakthrough, whether that be in finances or health. He always uses a human component. And we need to position ourselves for a miracle. And the greatest perspective is… It’s like a baseball analogy. You’re out in right field, out in the… And you don’t know when a ball’s coming, but when it comes, you got to be ready to catch it. And that’s the best way of how to position ourselves, I think, for a miracle, to be ready for what God wants to do.
SID: I want you to take me through how Joyce Smith positioned herself for her son’s miracle.
JASON: Yeah, definitely. When she walked into that room, she’d heard the report, she knew exactly what the doctors were saying about John, that he was dead. And in a split second, because I believe that if she would have made a different move, if she would’ve said, okay, I’m just going to allow my son to die, he would’ve been gone. But in a split second… And so many times it’s our split second response when we get that call and life turns upside down, what we do in that split second will dictate if we’re going to position ourselves for a miracle or not.
When Joyce walked into that room, she didn’t have to think about it. It was inside of her. She grabbed his feet and she prayed, “Holy spirit, bring my son back to life.” There was not any other talk. And what I always say is that when we get into a moment like that, what we put inside of us is what comes out. And that’s why it’s so important to, before it even happens, before we’re even in a situation, to be putting that stuff inside of us to know. And what stuff am I talking about? The scripture, God’s principles, about how do we position ourselves. That stuff inside of us so that when that moment comes that we can do what Joyce did and position ourselves and believe God for a miracle.
SID: God told him so many things.
JASON: Yes.
SID: In addition to how to position yourself? God told him to ignore certain things. Imagine, ignore them. We’ll be right back.
