1 1 Is there a supernatural dimension, a world beyond the one we know? Is there life after death? Do angels exist? Can our dreams contain messages from Heaven? Can we tap into ancient secrets of the supernatural? Are healing miracles real? Sid Roth has spent over 35 years researching the strange world of the supernatural. Join Sid for this edition of It s Supernatural. SID: Hello. Welcome to my world where it's naturally supernatural. Most Bible believers can t tell the difference between a professional entertainer, singer and a worshiper. But guess what? God can tell the difference. My guest, who has led worship for some of the largest miracle ministries on the planet, is a worshiper and when he worships, the tangible manifest presence of God invades the place, and in God all things are possible. Are you ready for the God invasion? I want to find out how Roy Fields became such a carrier of God s presence. Things didn t start out right for Roy. At two, his parents got divorced. At eight, he became a believer in the Messiah and he absolutely knew he wanted to help people. And then as a teenager, his mom bought him a guitar. And you used to go into your bedroom with your guitar. What were you doing? And you locked the door. What were you doing? ROY: Well I didn t know how to play, so I would watch some other musicians play and everything. But I would lock myself in the room and I would just play for hours. And I only knew like three chords. So I would just worship with these songs that didn t even rhyme. SID: You would do it for hours. A kid, a young kid, a teenager doesn t do that for hours. ROY: Well first, I love music, first of all. The second thing I was getting addicted to what I was feeling, what I would sing. SID: What would you feel? ROY: I would feel a warm sensation come over my body and I would be singing to him, and all the pain I was feeling from my childhood and my dad not being there, and everything that was going, I was finding the Lord. I don t know if that makes sense, but I was finding the Lord. And his presence would fill my room. And I mean, when you feel God s presence, what else do you want to do? SID: Okay. But your life really got changed. At 18, you went to Africa. What happened? ROY: Well I had somebody prophesy over me when I was 16 that I would actually do this. And I ended up in Africa. We went to four countries: Zimbabwe, Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique. And the last week I had an invitation to go to a high school in Mandara High School in Zimbabwe. I thought I was going to have like a Reinhard Bonnke meeting. You know, I was going to in there and there are going to be like thousands of people, and I would say, yes, hallelujah, you know. And unfortunately, there were eight kids there and they were already saved. SID: You went to Africa to save Africa, and kids, and they re already saved. ROY: So I mean, it was like letting the air out of my balloon. But anyway, I just felt a word from the Lord say, call people up for healing. Well seven of these eight came up and they didn t need healing, they wanted to just be prayed for. And I began to lay hands on them, and I had never done

2 2 this before. Sid, I wasn t taught. I hadn t learned how to pray for people. I hadn t learned how to lay hands on them yet, and I just did what I felt in my heart to do. I thought when Jesus was baptized in the water and the Holy Spirit came upon, that s when the power of God entered Jesus. And I said, let the same thing happen to these kids. And I lifted up my hand, and I watched a kid go flying out under the power of God. And honestly, I went like this, Sid, I went, I ve got the power! I mean, it blew my mind. And I just started laying hands on everybody, and they all fell out. SID: I understand that the group began to grow to over eight. What happened? ROY: It did. What happened is that last kid who didn t come forward I went and prayed for him and he was sitting in his seat. He was very embarrassed to get up. I went and grabbed his legs and prayed over him. SID: What was wrong with his legs? ROY: His foot, he had a clubbed food that was, he walked funny. Everybody knew him. And I thought, if this doesn t work, I m in Africa, nobody will remember me anyway. So I was like, it s okay. And I prayed and nothing, I was like, in the name of Jesus, you know, and nothing happened. And then the kid goes, Jesus, please. And in my hands that kid s foot snapped and it went like this, and I ll be honest, I wasn t like, come on, praise the Lord. I was like this, oh my God! And all the kids starting speaking in a language, because they knew it was real. He got up and walked around and the next meeting we had 300 kids jam pack the classroom. SID: Well that would change anyone s life. But I ll tell you what, I want you to stand up right now. Studio audience, you stand up. I want you at home, you think I don t see you? Well you re right. But stand up anyway. I want you to stand up and when you ve done everything else with the attacks of life, stand and watch the salvation of God. Let s hear Roy Fields, Stand Up. ROY [music, singing]: My heart is shouting out because the truth sets us free And we will stand up And we will stand up I might be shaken One voice this generation. Through the gifts of God raging battles lost and one We will not forget the chosen ones. Through the years of all that s come raging battles lost and won you will not forget your chosen ones. God is with us. Hey! Hey! Hey! And we will stand up Cause we will stand up One voice generation. And we will stand up I might be shaken. And we will stand up... One voice this generation. And we will stand up I might be shaken Cause we will stand up One voice this generation. And we will stand up! We'll be right back to It's Supernatural.

3 3 SID: So Roy Fields is invited to Wales where, quite a long time ago, they actually had a revival there. But he s going there only there for a few nights. What happened? ROY: Well we went there for four days to do a conference and when we got there I already had this expectation in me that something extraordinary might happen. The church we were in had not had a big move of God, a revival, since the 50s. And when I got there it was extraordinary. I would lead worship and we would go for at least an hour and a half to two hours each night, given any night. And then I would preach at the end of that, and I don t know how to say it, but the whole air changed in the place. I could almost feel like maybe what Evan Roberts, for instance, might have felt back in 1904, the guy with the Welsh revival and everything. SID: Right. ROY: And I looked around and I just knew this was what God wanted to do with this place. So it was like revisiting something that had already taken place, taken place years ago. And all I know is people did not want to leave the services, Sid, until 1:00 in the morning. The pastor is trying to shut the lights and he can t because people are laid out all across the entire halls, out the doors and everything. SID: Tell me about that bar owner. ROY: There is a bar owner who is locking up. He was watching these meetings increase every single night and he s only about 25 yards. The pub, as they call it in the U.K., and he was closing up the door one day and somebody told me, it was like 12:30 at night, and he s closing up the door, and as he looks out, here comes people stumbling out of the church doors. And he s thinking to himself SID: That s competition. ROY: Yeah, really. And he s thinking, I didn t serve these guys. What is going on over there? So the word started to spread, and next thing you know we had a prostitute come into the meeting that used to go to that bar, and because of what was happening in those meetings, she went to the bar, walked up to these two guys. I don t know if she had known them or not. And she said, Put your drinks down. You know if you would die today you d end up in hell, don t you? And they said, yes. And she grabbed them by the shirt, walked them 25 yards in to the building and both of them fell to their knees. One guy confessed to murder. The other guy gave his life to Christ. And both of them from what I understand today are now going to church, and they re plugged into God. SID: But you know, there is the counterfeit and the authentic. The counterfeit, the world has, get drunk on wine. But that s a counterfeit is the new wine of the Holy Spirit and people are so happy that people think they re drunk, and that s what that bartender was doing. ROY: Yeah. SID: But you and your wife went out on the streets and you were shocked when you were witnessing to people.

4 4 ROY: Yeah. SID: What did they tell your wife? ROY: Well my wife, on a Saturday, because we re there every night of the week doing meetings, Melanie, my wife, would go out on the streets and she would have, we d have a crowd of about a hundred people or so that we would take them to teach them how to evangelize. And it seemed to be nine out of ten people, now listen to this, nine out of ten people in Wales are either an atheist, or don t believe in church. Okay. And so she would walk up to some of these people and they started saying to her, these are completely unbelievers. SID: Right. ROY: And they were saying, I had a dream that you were going to come to me this morning and tell me about Jesus. I mean, so we were touching a lot of people throughout the streets there and those dreams, you know, to hear that it was confirmation that we were doing what we were supposed to do. SID: Tell me about the woman that just loved your song about angels, which happens to be favorite song. ROY: Yes. SID: Who fell off a roof and broke her back. ROY: In 2004, this lady fell of a roof and she was basically on every single medication you can imagine. I think it was Oxycontin, Darvocet, Percocet. She was in so much pain that she had to leave the meeting because we hadn t started praying with everybody. So her friend who was impatient came to me and said, Why won t you pray for my friend? You know, this meeting has been for four hours. And I m like, I lead worship for two hours and then we leave. And she said, She s leaving. And I said, Man, what s wrong, what s going on? And she says, She says, I m in so much pain. She says, I have to believe. If I don t get a miracle I can t live like this much longer. And I looked at her and Sid, I just knew by the Spirit God wanted to heal here right then and there, and I said, Ma am, look at my eyes. I said, I promise you when I pray for you God is going to heal you right now. Do you believe me? And I don t know, something about whatever was said, she looked at me and I knew she believed. I put my hand on her back. Now remember, there s nobody out there. Her friend is looking in disbelief. I put my hand on her back and I said, Jesus, you can heal this. I said, I command those bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons to line up with the Word of God in the name Jesus. And as I did that, her bones began to pop in my hand right up her back. And she went like this. She looked up and she went like this, and she said, Oh my God! I said, Come on, ma am, let s go walking. And then she started walking. And she said to me, What do I do next? And you know, I m not a doctor, but I prescribed her something. I said, Take two doses of my music and call me in the morning. In the Presence of Angels is what she listened to.

5 5 SID: Well I m going to tell you something, this is my favorite song, by the way. But In the Presence of Angels, as this music goes forth, people are seeing angels, they re having visitations from God, they re getting physically healed. Get ready because you are in the presence of angels. ROY [music, singing]: I can feel your mighty power in this space. In the presence of angels with God s glory over me. Like I can hear the angels say, hey, glory, glory. Lift it up. Glory, glory, glory, glory. Hear my calling. You are worthy, worthy, worthy, worthy. Show us your love. Show us your glory. Glory, glory, glory. We'll be right back to It's Supernatural. [commercial] We now return to It's Supernatural SID: I want to find out, Roy, to you, what is worship? ROY: That s a good question. Worship to me is the reverential adoration to God, not because he is God, but because I want to worship him. I want to love him. SID: Yeah, but I don t play the piano, I don t play any instrument. So is it just for you or how about someone like me? ROY: It s for everyone. God is searching every heart looking for someone to worship him in Spirit and in truth. SID: You know what I love to do? I love to worship God in supernatural languages, in tongues and make melodies. Do you ever do that? ROY: Absolutely. I don t know where I d be without it, to be honest with you. SID: Okay. Tell me about a few days ago you were in your living room. ROY: Yes. SID: And something phenomenal happened. ROY: Well this happens from time to time. I was laying in my living room. SID: That s not fair. It hadn t happened to me. ROY: Well I m laying in my living room and there are many times that I m thinking about God. I think about him all the time, and I find myself on the floor, and I just get lost. And I m not in a place of desperation where I m asking him to do something for me, and I m not in a place where

6 6 I m telling him, oh thank you for all you ve done for me. I m actually in this place of, God, I just love you. You re just absolutely amazing and I don t know what I d do without you in my life. And that s where I go. I go right there and I don t have to be in any environment. It could be anywhere. I just love it. SID: When you were 21, you would go into a church and the pastor gave you the key, and you d lock yourself in that church. What would you do? ROY: I would go and sit at the piano. You know, nobody would be there. The lights would be dim in the place and when I d go in I d just worship him, you know. These were my years as a youth, being a young adult growing up and just connecting with him. And as I played and I worshiped him, there was this one particular moment, you know, I m a young man, I m single, I m not married yet. I moved down from New York to Florida and I m just like, God, I m open for anything. My life is completely yours. And as I m worshiping the Lord, I sense the presence of God come into the room, and I look to my right, and where people would normally sit in the place, there was nobody there. But I looked in the main aisle and there were a set of brass feet that walked in and they had sandals on them. That s all I saw. Now I didn t know if it was God. I didn t know if it was Jesus. I didn t know if it was the Holy Spirit. I didn t know if it was an angel. Here s what I did know. I knew it was from the Lord. And when I looked at that, I shook. I wasn t like, hey Jesus, I was like, oh my God. And I just ducked underneath the piano, totally afraid, but in a wonderful afraid of the Lord, and I heard the Lord s voice and he said, I am with you. And I just, I think I didn t get out of the place until about two in the morning. I was just wrecked. I was just wrecked. And I, you know, this has been my relationship with the Lord. This is how it s been for me from a tough life in the early years until now. I m just in love with God. He s amazing, Sid. SID: You know, God is so amazing. I m going to tell you something. Roy got a song in Wales, it was downloaded from Heaven, about who God is, from Genesis to Revelation. It s called, You are God. And whether you know it or not, God is God, and God is your God, and God has a destiny for you, and God has a purpose for your life. Don t you take those pills. Don t you commit suicide because God is God. Roy Fields, You are God. ROY [music, singing]: You were there when the earth was born for us. God had only waived the darkness night. You were there stepping out unto nothing, spoke your word and light began to shine. You are God. I refuse to serve another. You are God. We declare it all in wonder. You are God. Let all the earth resound. Let every king take off the crown cause you are God. Let every knee bow down, let every voice lift up and shout that you are God. We'll be right back to It's Supernatural. [commercial] SID: Next week on It's Supernatural. Why does a rabbi get involved in deliverance, people that have evil spirits? Why does a rabbi say, it s so simple, you can take care of it yourself. Why does a rabbi say, you will have unprecedented peace when you re totally free? Anyone interested?
