Our Guest Guillermo Maldonado

SID: Hello. Sid Roth with Apostol Maldonado. And you know, I’ve been out to your congregation and I’ll tell you who impresses me, the young kids. Your young kids are normal. I wish all young kids would be normal. Tell me about, now I’m not from Miami, so tell me about that young person that went to the Dolphin Mall in Miami.

GUILLERMO: They usually do that every week. It’s not just one event. This is what this generation needs to understand, Sid. That we need to cross the line from just having the supernatural, just like one event and do the transition into being normal, into be a way of life, lifestyle. So my young people, thousands and thousands of young people that we have at church, we send them up. So usually they go to the malls and one of these days they stayed there until two a.m. in the morning. They get a hold of a microphone of these worldly people singing and dancing in the mall, and then he said, “Can I use my microphone?” So one of my young people took the microphone and then he started giving words of knowledge.

SID: Words of knowledge are from God, and God says, someone with ex-condition is going to be, like right now, someone with a bad hip is being healed at this moment. That is a word of knowledge, not from me, but from the Spirit of God. So these young people are speaking words of knowledge. I’ve been in malls, I’ve done stuff like that and I’ve gotten kicked out. How did he stay until two in the morning? What was his secret?

GUILLERMO: They spoke to the manager and the manager got saved, and got healed. So they stayed there, people waited on line until two a.m. in the morning, and they prophesied and ministered to people, and most of all they understand that the supernatural has one goal, which is winning the people for Jesus.

SID: Now in the Glory anything you proclaim happens. But this is ridiculous. If you know about Miami, how many murders they have per square inch, based on that small population, you proclaimed in the Glory what would happen in Miami. What did you proclaim?

GUILLERMO: I proclaimed, we got a big event. We got 14,000 people in the American Alliance Arena. We got 8,000 pastors from 55 countries. So I proclaimed that not one single murder would be in that particular month, the month of October. Guest Sid Roth

SID: Did you get that? For the entire month.

GUILLERMO: Now Sid, I was led by the Spirit to do it

SID: I understand, but you realize that without God you’re in big trouble.

GUILLERMO: Yeah. So I declared and we believed, and the month of November, the report came back and it was exactly what we proclaimed.

SID: By the way, I have the news article right here. One month, no murders in Miami. You tell me God is not a powerful God.

GUILLERMO: Now I think, Sid, there is something that people did not know, but most of the famous preachers, before, they didn’t go to Miami because it was called the graveyard of pastors. So after we came, we had been there for 15. As you know, our church has grown 15,000 people. But that was not the point. The point is that we broke the curse over the city. So there’s many churches that got to certain numbers and something happened to the pastor. But now you see hundreds of churches now growing into thousands.

SID: Right now I believe that if you pray for people to have the fire of God and be healed, and be normal, you’re going to be normal. Would you do that right now?

GUILLERMO: I will do it. If you’re watching me now, first of you all, you need to understand why you need the fire. There are so many people saying, why do I need the fire? To shake? What’s the purpose? The purpose for you to have the fire, first of all, we all need to have an encounter with God. You know, when we’re talking about encounter, we’re talking about, first of all, for your faith to be founded in the power. Number two, for you to be transformed and changed. And number three, I believe the most important is to be a carrier of the presence of God. It’s not just receiving your miracles, but you can become a worshiper. You can become a carrier. You can become a prayer.

SID: It’s time to pray.

GUILLERMO: Father, in the name of Jesus, right now I thank you. I give you praise and I give you honor. Those people that are watching, that are hungry and thirsty for your presence, thirsty for the fire, right now I release the fire. Wherever you are in your home now, if you feel sad, if you feel God will not fill you beyond your contentment, you have to desire, you have to want it. And now I release it in Jesus’ name the fire of the Holy Spirit be ignited, be ignited with the presence and the fire of God in Jesus’ name. Amen and amen.

SID: I had a revelation this morning, and I love, you were talking about the difference between information and revelation. I had a revelation this morning. I was reading in the Torah, in Deuteronomy, the 18th chapter, and it was talking about when Moses went to Mt. Sinai to get the 10 commandments, and the Jewish people saw the flames of fire and heard the shofar blast, they got afraid. And they said, “We don’t want to hear God’s voice,” number one, and “we don’t want the fire.” They said that specifically. Romans 11:11 says, “Salvation is come to the gentile to provoke the Jew to jealousy.” Well when a non-Jewish believer in Jesus is filled with the fire of God, hears the words of God, you will cause the Glory of the former reign and the Glory of the latter reign on the gentles, the Jews, the gentiles will come together to form the greatest explosion of God’s manifestation and presence. And right now, you need to make Jesus your Messiah and Lord. Don’t wait another second.
