Time Text
And I want you to get prepped.
We don't know what's coming.
Who knows?
But regardless whether it's a hurricane, national disaster, or the whole government shuts down, they have awesome deals on freeze-dried food.
In fact, they have a new item.
It's freeze-dried cans.
It's a lot less expensive than the big barrels.
Go there.

promo code KENIS and check them out.
Hey everybody, welcome to Jesus, Skins and Babies.
I'm your host, Dr.
Candice Taylor, and I have a super, super special guest.
Y'all are going to be so excited.
I'm going to start with Acts 4.13.
Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John and perceived that they were uneducated and untrained men, they marveled, and they realized that they had been with Jesus.
So it didn't matter if they were trained.
It didn't matter if they were educated.
They had been with Jesus and they could tell the difference.
And so this verse is what I asked my guest what he thought.
And this is his top verse.
So he's going to tell you about that.
We're going to welcome to Jesus Fence and Babies, Todd, the one and only Todd Bentley.
How are we doing today?
I'm so glad to be here.
So excited about what's happening in the world and just to meet.
It's exciting.
That verse gets me excited that you read out of Acts 4 every time.
It's my life story, like a lot of people's.
You know, unlearned, untrained.
God takes the weak, foolish things of the world.
And he uses that testimony to, you know, do mighty signs and wonders.
It's like a sign and a wonder, a prophetic sign, if you would.
And the key is they've been with Jesus.
And that's my story.
You know, I've been with Jesus.
Tell about that, because you were telling me before we came on.
So you tell them...
My background was in church.
Yeah.
I mean, I don't fit the box, you know, the checkbox of pastor, revivalist.
I am a revivalist evangelist.
I've been in 73 countries for 25 years.
This year is 25 years.
And full-time, I travel all over the world by invitation.
And, you know, that's taken me into some pretty exciting venues over the years, from the bush in South America, Ecuador, Bolivia, Peru, to the You know, Africa, from South Africa to the underground church in Egypt to the Middle East, preaching in, you know, Israel, preaching in Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, preaching in Pakistan, India.
I've been in all different types of places, in prisons, you know, schools, in open fields, in stadiums, in Canada, in America.
And just about anywhere where I get a chance, even shows like this.
I love it.
Guns, Babies, Jesus.
I mean, I thought, what a great show to be a part of.
I'm a Canadian A, and I'm living here in the Carolinas in America, but I've got a burning heart for what God is going to do in this nation.
I love America, and sometimes I think I love America more than a lot of Americans, even though I'm a legal immigrant.
That came from Canada in 2009 to live in the United States, you know, but I'm honored to be here and I'm a guest to be here.
But my background before I got involved in faith stuff or religious stuff, people might want to call it.
And they're like, you're a pastor.
You don't look like a pastor.
I was involved in drugs and alcohol and had that kind of upbringing in a broken home and got involved in all kinds of criminal activity in my past, way back, way back in my teenage years.
Ended up in prison, spent 17 months in five prisons before I was 16, and just ended up on the street after my third drug overdose until I met Jesus and had an awakening experience.
You know, unlearned, untrained, uneducated, definitely not feeling like I'm qualified, but Jesus, these men have been with Jesus.
And God got a hold of me when I realized, man, I need some help here.
If you're real, reveal yourself to me.
And I prayed this prayer.
They call it the born again.
You must be born again to see the kingdom of God.
I was like, well, I'm born again.
Jesus, come into my heart.
Forgive me of my sins.
And when that happened, people started to invite me all over the world.
Come share your story, just like you're asking my story.
And I've shared that story in 73 countries, all over Europe, all over Mexico and everywhere.
And I've seen millions of people that were even Muslims and people of different faiths and cultures and backgrounds have their own encounter with Jesus.
And they would say to this day, Todd, I believe the gospel.
And, you know, so I'm getting a little preaching now.
You know, you can tell I'm excited.
My brother's a drug addict and he's been struggling with drugs for about 15 years.
And so we were talking and I was thinking, you know, we get frustrated and he's in jail right now.
He's been in prison and he's not a bad person.
He's just a drug addict.
And I keep thinking I had a dream about him.
I have prophetic dreams too.
And I had a dream about him when he was out of jail about eight months ago and he had overdosed on fentanyl and I was speaking at his funeral.
And so I prayed with the Lord.
I said, Lord, please arrest him or radically save him because I know he's going to die.
And I know you have a purpose because I know my brother has a calling on his life for ministry.
And that's why addicts, a lot of addicts, the enemy targets them because of the call of God.
And a lot of people, there is, and any addict really knows there's spiritual powers involved in alcohol, drug addiction.
And if we don't address the spiritual problem, not just I'm an addict, he's got an alcohol problem, always running from pain, he's medicating, there's all kinds of reasons we do what we do.
With different addictions, but there is a spiritual problem.
And any true addict that I know that struggle with addiction or drugs knows there's a spiritual element.
I got involved in a lot of hallucinative drugs and different things like that.
But I was like, there's something spiritual about when I did meth or something spiritual about when I was doing crack or the most hardcore drugs actually were open gateways for hearing things you don't want to hear and seeing things you don't want to see.
And a lot of times people come off those trips So that's why I believe praying for people with addiction in addition to maybe counseling or I'm not against all the other things we do to treat addiction, but why not add prayer and why not add deliverance prayer and treat addiction like it is a tormenting spirit and have success by saying demon of addiction come out.
That's what happened to me.
I got set free from like people call the demon.
I had a demon of addiction and I've had to fight things in my life to stay free.
But if I didn't treat it like a spiritual problem, And to treat it like a spiritual problem, this will help a lot of addicts.
I had to come to the end of myself and acknowledge I needed help, and that help was found in Jesus Christ.
Not any other power, not any other superpower, but Jesus specifically in saying, Holy Spirit come, and he gave me the grace and the power to stay free.
And so I'm free today.
I have straight edge Todd Bentley here.
I don't use anything in my life, any substance, but I can help a lot of people overcome addiction.
And I also Offer that help.
Even if they don't go to church or believe like me, I love people that don't believe like me.
I love people that are bearded.
I've got a few tattoos.
I love people that look different, that don't fit in the box.
I'm not targeting the healthy.
Jesus came for the sick.
He didn't come for the healthy.
He came for the sick, not the righteous.
The sick need Jesus.
So we got to target the people that are sick.
And it could be physical, spiritual, mental, all kinds of people reach out to me.
I thought I got depression.
I got anxiety.
I'm suicidal.
I've had to overcome hopelessness, anxiety, panic attacks.
I tried to commit suicide on drugs, pulled my head off with a shotgun.
I came to the end of myself, found my joy and peace in Jesus, overcame mental illness.
So I help a lot of people in their journeys, even if they don't have the same faith background.
Well, see, people...
Everybody knows someone that's addictive.
Everybody does.
There's nobody that addiction doesn't affect their family.
So that's why you're able to go to all these countries and people are set free because we're set free by testimony, right?
But I was going to say...
I know some testimonies.
Hopefully that's going to give faith, not only for you and your brother, but...
Others that are going to hear this program, because I'm declaring their open freedom.
We proclaim liberty for the captive, opening of the door for those who are in prison.
We command people to be free from the chains of darkness.
And if they reach out to you or me, we'll always pray for them.
I never turn people away that are like, pray for me, I'm struggling, you know?
Amen.
Well, we have to lean on each other.
That's what we're here for, right?
But I was going to say really quick, so I've never met you in person, and I didn't get to go to Lakeland Revival, but there was a huge revival that happened, and I was actually, I think I was pregnant with my first child then, but I grew up Baptist, and I had, I was going to a church that I have friends with people who went to a church that was more non-denominational, and they're like, there's a big revival of people being healed and all these things.
And I'm like, really?
And so I started watching some of your YouTube video, or, you know, I guess it was YouTube at that time, but started watching the videos and seeing videos people had on their phone because they would go.
And my husband had even, you know, he went and talked about that a while ago.
But we...
Like, your name in South Georgia, because I live in South Georgia, and you were in Florida, so it was huge.
Like, everybody knew.
So when I ran for office, and I have, like, Andy Stanley follows me.
I have some really big people that follow me, and I don't know what it was, and I haven't told you this, but whenever somehow there was something you posted, and I wasn't following you, but I clicked on you and said, oh, there's Todd Bentley.
I haven't heard of him in years, and you were following me.
I was following you because of your support and love and views on a lot of, you have hope that God's going to save America.
I saw even post on Trump.
Should we say that too loud?
Yes, that's right.
And that's why I followed you because I saw that you were a Christian and I saw that you had a voice and you were following a lot of political people.
I tend to follow a lot of political people even though I'm Canadian because I got a word from the Lord for America and a lot of places.
Yeah, so I said, Ron, Tom Bentley's following me.
He said, are you kidding me?
I'm like, no, it's Tom Bentley.
I'm serious.
And so anyway, I reached out to you and was like, hey, I want to have you on my show.
And so that was after, you know, the campaign and all.
But I... Really, it's God.
He's connecting His children, and He wants to do something huge here.
I really feel like, with politics, that God has not been honored at all, and our country was established on Jesus Christ.
And so it's going to take more than just as electing people that believe in Jesus.
It's going to take the church to wake up.
It's going to take people who are strong and know who they are in Christ with authority to take this nation back because it is a spiritual battle.
We don't fight against flesh and blood.
So I really wanted to have you on here.
I am so excited.
So we'll go wherever you want to go right now, Todd.
If you want to go into, I know you have a word for the Middle East.
I would love to go there.
We can talk about President Trump.
I would love to go there.
So wherever you want to go.
I want to say this first of all, I'm not one of those prophetic people several years ago.
There's no Todd Bentley prophetic word that Donald Trump would be elected as the 2016 or 2000.
I didn't have any word.
There was a lot of prophets that were prophesying on social media claiming they saw this, the word of the Lord.
Now, what I will say this, back in 2016, I had no political care.
I was like, don't talk to me about politics.
One of my own interns and disciples at the time, an associate with our ministry, he's like, I'm taking a trip to Washington.
I could take 50 pastors.
Todd, we're going to meet with Congress.
We're going to have dinner with Congress.
We're going to get in the White House.
We're going to go into maybe even the tunnels under the White House.
I said, wow, I don't care.
I'm not political.
I'm Canadian.
I don't vote anyway.
So I just brushed it off, even though, you know, behind the scenes, outside of my spiritual opinions, you know, I was like, well, I like Donald Trump.
I don't like a lot of what a lot of people don't like.
Maybe we don't like certain things about his past or his scandals or his mean tweets.
And I said, well, who am I in my past?
Who am I in my past scandals?
What did I have to overcome?
Separating myself from that, I said, policy for policy.
I'm a Canadian.
And I can just see how much better America was under Trump when he did win the first time.
And it doesn't matter what my opinion is about whether the election was stolen or not the last time.
I know that what we need now more than ever, without having to give it as a prophetic word, thus saith the Lord, We need a man like Trump.
And I got to say this, and you know this, when we feel like and it looks like, and I'm saying, thank God, let it be Biden.
Like, should it be Biden?
No.
But if you're going to put Biden out on the ticket for the 2024 election, that's just going to bring more Democrats.
And it's happening all really right now, especially with the war broke out in the Middle East.
You're watching all the left eat the left and the Democratic Party, the ratings of Biden going down, down, down.
I mean, if they're going to keep him on the card next year, I'm like, easy win for Trump.
And it's not because Trump's the savior, but his policies, policy to policy.
We were safer.
We were secure.
We had the border.
We had money.
And then we try to blame Trump for everything that came with the COVID. Right in the midst of when he was starting to peak, he gets hit with a world pandemic that wasn't Trump's fault.
And yet, we have a chance now.
I'm a guy that has hope for America.
I'm a guy that has hope for the Western world.
And I'm glad to see people waking up and fighting for things that we ought to be fighting for that matter, like our children and who we really are.
Like, we're fighting things about identity and things I never saw in my childhood.
Thank God I didn't have access to the social media, to the TikTok, to some of the things we have today that can be a great tool.
But also, look at the health, the mental illness, and all the other problems growing.
How women, young women, see themselves because of Instagram.
How we compare ourselves.
The bubble of a fake world.
They used to talk about how numb...
Men were and how numb men get when they look at pornography images too much and how that distorts intimacy.
And I really believe that happens.
But how much more a social media world, and we see what's happening in the Middle East for one, they're winning the social media war.
The whole Hamas terrorists winning the social media war, making Israel look like they're the occupiers and they're changing, they're flipping the script.
And we live in a cancel culture society where anybody can cancel and say anything about anybody publicly.
We can end people's lives and careers.
Where's grace?
Where's love?
Where's forgiveness?
Where do we stand on any kind of a standard?
Well, the Word of God.
We've got to get back to the Word of God.
And that's why I'm a conservative at heart, because how can you be a Christian and not support every conservative value?
I don't know how we can not vote for Trump.
He's the strength we need.
If we need a military strength, a guy that didn't get us any wars, a guy that ended wars, I mean, just look at the track record.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist or a Canadian like me.
I came legally to this country and let anyone come to the legal processes.
We're not trying to keep out immigrants.
We're just saying, come legally.
I support the idea of a secure border, and there's going to be a massive Deportation of illegal immigrants under Trump and what he's going to do when he first secures the border.
And that's why I'm praying for that.
But I have a word, too, and I try not to mix all the spiritual stuff, but God has alerted me since the war broke out October 7th with Israel and their need to defend themselves.
I've been like a watchman on the wall, intercessor, praying sometimes and writing and standing and blessing and praying and interceding for Israel hours a day.
And that's not normally what I do.
Leave it to the print warriors, the intercessors.
I'm a revivalist evangelist, but I've been like a prophet on the wall, praying every day, and God's saying, pay attention, because this is setting the stage for end-time events.
And what's happening in the Middle East right now is more than just Israel and the Gaza Strip.
We're coming up against the ideology of, I believe, the Antichrist of the future, if you can use that terminology at all.
The Antichrist idea is going to be an ideology.
It doesn't even have to be one person who's the Antichrist, an ideology.
And it's a holy war we're coming up against.
When we're battling in the Middle East right now, what you're coming up against is everybody includes religion in their state.
They don't separate state and religion.
And they're fighting a holy war and they're dying at 22 and they call themselves a martyr.
You can't defeat that with any Western system because I've seen it.
I've been in Pakistan.
I've been in these countries with that militant extreme.
And I'm not saying every Muslim is that, but you understand the extreme when we use terms like ISIS or terrorism or Hamas.
You know, it's a whole different level of extreme ideology.
Some of it's coming out on our college campuses and universities.
It's a wake-up call.
I think all the bad right now is just waking us up.
I see Americans waking up going, whoa, this is what we're really up against.
We better take this thing because we're not up against just a religion.
We're up against a way of thinking that thinks not just Jews, but that all Christians should die.
That's what I mean by this war is coming to America.
Maybe not boots on the ground and war and the idea of like we think Russian and Ukraine, But America is dealing with the war already, whether we think we're in it or not.
We are, and it's a big ideology.
We've lost a whole generation, and many of them are just 22, 23.
We've lost them to a way of thinking since 9-11 in this country.
I was preaching in Alaska when 9-11 hit, and we tried to defeat and have all those years to do war on terror, and we want Israel to do it in weeks.
And they're fighting a battle for us.
Why?
So the persecution doesn't come to America and we get persecuted because we call ourselves Christians.
Because according to some of those ideologies that are extreme, they think all Christians and any non-believer that's not converted to their way of thinking should die, not just the Jews.
And that's what we're coming up against.
This is a forerunning taste of the Antichrist that I think is going to come out of the Islamic system.
It's coming from, and we didn't see that 15, 20 years ago.
Where's the entire Antichrist going to come from?
It's going to come from, we've got a beautiful, a lot of these Muslim countries.
I love them.
I visit them.
I'm making a trip to the Middle East coming up real quick because I have a heart for the Middle East.
I want to go in and prophesy to the leaders and the people in the Middle East because they're the brother of Isaac and they're the son of Abraham and they need to be reached with the gospel just like every Jew needs to know Jesus.
Yeah.
That's a lot I said there, but I'm passionate.
I've been holding a lot of the sin.
Yeah.
Well, you know, what about Zionists?
Because you're talking about social media.
I see this every day on social media, and I know what you're saying about them losing the world.
Well, Zionism is another form, just like you have in the church.
You have Christians that are free and then you have really extreme religious.
It doesn't just happen in those circles.
It also happens in religious Christian circles or any other kind of faith.
You know, they can be extreme versions of that Hinduism.
You know, they they you know, there's conflicts with all different types of religions around the world.
I don't want to just zero in on one.
But when one manifests and it's about hate and violence and calls for the eradication from the river to the sea of any group of people.
You need to understand where the root of this is coming from.
It's not just 1963, 70 years ago, 1948.
It goes back thousands of years, you know, to the Philippines in the Bible, and David defeated the Goliath.
And without historical or biblical reference to the state of Israel and Israel, And the issues in the Middle East will never understand it to this day because most of us aren't even 50, 60, 70 years old.
How are we going to understand 4,000 or 5,000 years when a lot of us in America are so carnal we don't even know who Allah is and the difference between Allah and Jehovah and the difference between...
The fates.
We just want to wrap it all up and let's all just get along and love each other, like throw our lighters up in the air, peace and love and joy.
There is no sin.
There is no wrong.
We can be whatever we want.
And then we think, you know, we got people in the LGB community coming out going, we're going to stand with Hamas only because they want to feel welcomed by the people that reject them.
And then they found out the terrorists are like, you're into this.
We're going to kill you first.
And so we don't even know.
A lot of young people don't even know what they believe and why they believe it.
So they just come out with what's going on.
What's being...
I've virgitated to them for the last 20 years.
And, you know, I feel bad for them all.
And in the end, I'm going to say, Jesus, the answer.
And of course, others are going to be like, well, what about all those, the answer, whatever, whatever.
But at the end of the day, we have to start addressing in America our truths and liberties and freedoms because they see us as the great saint at the end of the day.
Yeah, and you know, when I was running, I was speaking, I was actually speaking before Marjorie Taylor Greene, and I was giving a speech, and I only had five minutes, so I had to be fast, and I was like, I believe in everything you believe, and I believe in Jesus, guns, and babies.
And I would say Jesus, you know, and when I was talking about my relationship with the Lord, and I love Jesus, and I learned, Todd, that politicians don't say Jesus.
They say God, or they'll say my faith, but they don't say His name.
Yeah, they're not born again.
They have, and that's the qualifier.
Are you born again?
I didn't ask if you believe in God.
I didn't ask if you read your Bible.
I've heard Joe Biden talk about his Catholic faith, and yet I know what he stands for isn't anything what I would stand for as a Christian believer born again, saved out of the lifestyle I've come out of.
I try not to judge.
I have grace.
But the Bible is the standard for how we're to live.
And if we would all measure our lives by the words of Jesus in red, and he's the one that said you must be born again to see the kingdom of God.
If you're You're not born again by having a moment where you surrendered and I'm a sinner and I need a savior and I see how he died and rose again.
And you make that personal commitment to not only receive Jesus, the Bible says as you receive him, walk in him.
It's after the prayer.
It's after the sinner's prayer when we come to the altar.
It's as you receive Jesus, are you walking in Him?
Are you growing in Him?
Are you rooted in Him?
It's a lifestyle of a journey.
And I'm going to tell people, it's not easy becoming a disciple.
It's not just becoming a converter.
You know, somebody prayed with me, I converted.
It's are you a disciple?
And God's getting ready right now to disciple nations.
He's shaking the nations.
He's separating the wheat and the tares, the goat nations and the sheep nations.
And there's a clear line being drawn even in these nations right now that are battling.
You're seeing who's good and evil.
You're going to see who's a goat nation, who's a sheep nation, who's a part of the wheat and the tares.
But we've got to let the Lord do the separating.
We can't do the separating.
We've got to preach and be obedient and pray and do what we do, stand, hold the line.
But we've got to let God be the one that separates.
And there's going to be a day we're going to see the deep darkness cover the earth, the deep darkness cover the people.
But the Lord's word was that we would arise and shine and that we would be glory lights and we would carry hope.
And for me, I carry, you know, the power of the Holy Spirit and I believe in and pray for Mira.
miracle signs and wonders.
I believe that we can see the things we read about in the Bible.
I'm a Pentecostal at heart.
But at the end of the day, these politicians don't know Jesus.
And that's what you are there in your place, because you're always going to hold the light of the word and the standard to you just because you say God or you pray, you got to, you know, you got to get the base, the partners, the donors, you got to play the right political part.
And at the end of the day, if we examine people by their lifestyle and what they really believe, you find out they don't know Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.
And they need to.
It doesn't matter if they're an elder or a deacon, if they're in a charismatic Pentecostal or a Baptist church or a Catholic church.
Outside the church, we're all going to be accountable for our own faith and whether we came to faith in Christ.
So I'm a preacher.
I'm an evangelist.
That's my testimony.
But I love to speak over the nation because I believe in America.
I believe God's going to do a work in this nation.
Because America has a purpose in the world.
It's not to be in endless wars, but we are called to be the beacon of life and hope and liberty and freedom, and it's worth fighting for.
You know, people, it's hard to make a backroom deal and take dirty money and say the name of Jesus.
It's hard to lie to your constituents and say things and then say his name.
It's hard to do that.
And how do you come to truth after doing it for years?
And then you get this moment where you're like, I want to be a different person.
And everybody's like, yeah, but you just did that two years ago.
Hey, you took my money.
And then you can't come out and make public changes without upsetting the rest of your base, even though maybe you're not the person anymore.
I always try to be—I say this to God—I want to ascend.
I want to elevate.
I don't want to be the man I was a year ago or five years ago or ten years ago.
I'm always looking to challenge myself to grow.
And you don't even have to be a Christian to use these principles.
We're all looking to become a better version of ourselves and do better and upgrade.
And that was a former—you don't know that guy anymore— And I don't even want to see or talk about who I used to be because I want to walk in the freedom and the restoration I have today.
I've been through public things, scandals, restorations, corruptions, areas where I didn't respond the way, you know, call it sin.
Sin is sin.
Why are we afraid of saying the word we're sinners?
Right.
I need a savior.
We're sinners.
Sin is sin.
We all have brokenness in our lives.
And I don't make excuses for my past.
A lot of my stuff has been public.
A lot of it's been gossip and hearsay.
You can imagine all the scandals done on me that weren't true.
And I've had to navigate all that.
I do enough on my own.
Quit making up stuff, you know?
Yeah, people make up stuff.
And I see how that happens to political people, too.
So I also have to learn how to go through my Twitter account, like you, and sort what's the truth, what stake, what's coming out by Hamas and the propaganda out of what's happening in the Middle East.
There's all kinds of people that I'm shocked about, college people, educated people, people I knew in America, political even, celebrities, and we're dividing down the line, families over our support for whether we're pro-Israel or whether we're not, or are we pro-humanity?
We all want to have an opinion about And we're living in these days where God is allowing this stuff to come to the surface.
God is allowing this shaking in America so that he can bring redemption.
There is never a shaking without God's plan to bring salvation, healing, and recovery.
That's the good news.
Yes, and thank you, Lord, for that, right?
Thank you for that hope, because otherwise it's like worthless what we're doing.
I feel like that...
No matter what, we stand with humanity and human life.
And when children are killed and murdered, it's inhumane.
Oh yeah.
Terrible.
And I want to say that and agree with you on that.
I'm not for any of the extra collateral damage either.
I'm not for every act that Israel has done.
I am- I mean, either way.
There is a Zionist, extremist thinking, just like there's a Jihad.
Absolutely, religion is at play in all of this on both sides.
As an evangelist, I'm for God so loved the world.
I don't care if you're white, black, Arab, Jew, Christian, Muslim, Hindu, whatever your background.
That's why I've been to 73 countries, and that's why I'm going to the Middle East, is at the end of the day.
And thank you for bringing that balanced side out, because I can get so excited about one side, you forget the other side.
We don't want to forget humanity, and that's who you are.
We've got to stand for God so above the world.
We're called to be different.
We don't have to choose sides like, are you pro-Gaza?
Are you pro?
We don't have to choose that side.
We can choose the love of God.
We all need Jesus the same way.
I don't care if you're Jew or Muslim.
You've got to come to faith the way I did.
We all have to come to faith.
Every political, we all have to come to faith.
We don't get an excuse because of something else.
We have to be Jesus.
But I do feel, and I've had people say, well, you know, Israel, that being God's chosen people, that's not a thing in the past.
And try to justify.
And I feel in my spirit, like we stand with Israel, period.
And I feel that in my spirit.
The land.
It's not the people.
It's the land that I'm committed to.
The people are beautiful, but the people there now aren't the people that were there 4,000 years ago.
Right.
But God made a covenant to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and he didn't change that covenant, and the land is still blessed, and the land is still theirs, and I'm receiving the blessing from Abraham because I'm free from the curse of the law made to receive the blessing.
So I honor Israel in that sense, but I'm just as saved and grafted in as a Gentile.
As anyone else.
And so that's where we even try to have Christians replace Israel.
I don't go that far.
I'm not replacement theology, but I'm also not thinking any person in Israel, even if you call yourself a true Israel Jewish person, you still have to meet the Messiah.
In the same way, if you don't accept the Messiah, and many in the Israeli world haven't received the Messiah, And that's where a lot of the people are like, hey, we the most religious people of the land.
We don't support this.
We love the Torah and we don't support what Israel, the government, what the Zionists are doing.
That's even people in Israel saying that because they're the true people that want to follow the law and the Torah.
What they're missing, though, is that fact that Jesus did come 2000 years ago.
I had somebody I was talking to the other day, Muslim, a man, a young man, and he was very educated.
He goes, I do what you do.
But I'm not a Christian revivalist and preacher.
I do this for the Muslim people.
And I preach in synagogues.
And so we were like going at it together.
And we were in the middle of this restaurant in Brooklyn, New York.
And he looked at me and he said, Well, you know that your Bible says, and I believe this, that the Messiah has to come and get punished and die.
And that hasn't happened yet.
And I stopped and I said...
You don't believe that the Messiah has come.
That's kind of what a lot of the Jewish people, they don't even believe in the first coming, let alone the second coming that Jesus will come again.
They've missed it.
And listen, I missed it living in drugs and sin.
Many of us in America have missed it.
It doesn't matter what in the world.
They're missing it because they don't even know that he's already come and paid the price and we're trying to work for it.
And so, you know, at the end of the day, it doesn't matter what our opinions are politically, even.
We've got to understand That to get back to the roots, at least America was founded on In God We Trust.
We got to get back to those Christian roots.
And why do we want to take the nation in the name of whatever?
It's just in the name of we want more freedoms to sin at the end of the day.
I can use that culture because I'm in my industry.
My industry calls sin, sin.
That's what we want.
We want to accept evil and make it so normal that even the people that are like, wait, I'm not religious, but I'm looking at this and this is crazy.
Where are we getting this kind of mental illness in a way when it comes to a lot of issues?
It is.
It's mental illness.
And I don't, I just, I stand with Israel.
I know, like I even have some people that I'm really close to that are, you know, they think that everything that Israel's doing is wrong.
And, you know, I don't, As a country, I know the covenant is there.
And I know biblically what we're supposed to do.
But we stand with any child, innocent people that are killed.
We don't want anybody killed.
Absolutely.
The children, I can't watch the videos.
They tear my heart out.
They're not targeting those civilians.
And at the end of the day, I don't care.
We know Hamas is using them.
But the point is this.
You know, it's the collateral, and some have questioned the idea of, well, is this too much?
When's enough?
When does it cost the mine of, you know, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth?
When is the collateral?
And, you know, I'm just glad hostages are being released right now.
I'm just glad that the pressure is on for more and more hostages, maybe, you know, and we've got to celebrate, yeah, there still is a lot of people, there were hundreds as of just a few days ago that still have not come home from how many different nations?
That has to be at the forefront, too, and people have got to keep the pressure on, well, why is Why is this organization still holding these hostages?
Why only give out 10 a day?
Why only release one American?
You know, it's clear who's playing with people's lives here weeks after the war began, even after the rockets stopped firing and we got a temporary ceasefire for a few days.
I'm glad and I'm praying for the hostages.
And at the end of the day, I am praying for the children.
But, you know, at the end of the day, I'm standing for evil to be rooted out and eradicated in whatever form that looks like.
And I'm glad to see some humanitarian.
And I know you are.
I mean, you're a mother, too.
Yeah.
We can't imagine.
I got five children of my own.
I can't imagine going through that life.
And I thank God that I've been in a lot of war zones and I've been in a lot of places where it wasn't famous to share my faith.
Like, I've had my faith at risk with suicide bombers and religious fanatics that wanted to take my life, rob me, custom me, hold me, took my staff hostage.
I've had suicide bombers.
I've had threats in Pakistan.
Preaching in different countries because, you know, Al-Qaeda or whoever, and they didn't like that I was converting Muslims to Christianity.
And I had my name on the watch list of police were going to arrest me in India.
I had a riot breakout.
I think all over different ideology.
So there's a holy war that people aren't considering in the political world.
Even over the whole election coming up in 2024, you don't think there's a spiritual side.
We've got to win this thing on our knees.
Right.
Absolutely.
That's what I was going to ask you.
You know, you were talking about what's going on there and it's affecting America and the whole we've gotten like sadaisical and fat and lazy and just don't care.
We're watching TV or we're playing on the Internet.
But this is when revival comes.
You show me every revival in the past history, every past awakening, every past reformation, every past great awakening on the heels of the Second World War, on the heels of the First World War, during the Second Great Depression.
A move of God, the charismatic renewal was in America during the Vietnam War and the gifts of the spirit and power of God were being restored to the church.
I could go down the line, the Jesus revolution that took place.
There was a whole movie in Hollywood in the last year about the revival in California, Southern California, and the Jesus people.
And there's a lot more coming out and celebrities getting public about their faith.
Hollywood movies coming out in faith that aren't cheesy movies.
And The Sound of Freedom and other great movies that are coming out that have more of what we love and conserve the biblical values.
So I've got to...
I got to give it to, sometimes you do got to intentionally hear the good news and turn off the bad news, turn off Fox, turn off all the whoever you listen to to get your news, turn off the Twitter, because you want to hear and focus in on, hey, they just had 650,000 last week in Nicaragua, where there's a move of God right now.
Why aren't we talking about that on the news?
We're talking about the 10,000 protesters against this and that in New York City.
And we're not talking about the 650,000 getting saved in Nicaragua right now.
And if we want to have our focus on good news, we can tap into there are people being healed.
There are people being delivered.
There is revival.
There is signs and wonders.
How about Asbury?
Tucker Carlson earlier this year did a whole show about the Asbury revival.
I got to spend three days in the Asbury revival.
I went there before it was 60,000 people and thousands couldn't even get in the building.
They didn't have enough overflow.
They had to shut the thing down after a few weeks.
24 hours a day, seven days a week, worship nonstop, created by the Spirit, maintained by young people, mostly between the ages of 18 to 34 years old.
There's campuses, many campuses all across America, not just what we're seeing break out on the campuses now since the whole thing in the Middle East.
What about the fact that there's been hundreds of colleges and campuses in America, even in Texas, that have been holding revivals like what broke out in Asbury earlier this year that was World Global News.
People were coming from around the world, like to my revival in Wakeland, Florida.
I had 405,000 people attend that revival in Wakeland, Florida.
405,000 in every secular media.
I mean, I was on Geraldo.
I was on Nightline News.
I was on Fox.
I was on MSNBC. I was on BBC News.
I was in magazines, newspapers overnight because I showed up to preach to 200 people and the power of God showed up.
And then it was 1,000.
Then it was 3,000, 5,000, 10,000 a night.
I built a 10,000 seat tent.
And I was on the secular news, not just the Christian news.
I was on the secular news.
And, you know, in the end of all that, I went through a public scandal.
I went through a divorce 15 years ago, remarriage.
You know, the church isn't really favorable if you ever go through something like divorce and remarriage.
I had to find my faith in the Word of God and had to return to the truth of the Word of God and find my own healing and restoration.
And I did.
And I did a lot of public and private restoration and counseling.
Did all the stuff you should do whenever you go through something like I did publicly.
And it took me a few years to climb back.
And I had to climb back.
And then people don't want to let it go 10 years later, 15 years later.
They still want to talk about it.
When I go into cities, aren't you the guy who 15 years ago?
And I was like, yeah, but I'm not that guy.
There's not 10,000 in my meeting tonight.
I mean, mind you, I went to India in 2019 and I have crowds there, 10,000, 20,000, 30,000 a night.
If I want crowds, I can go anywhere and have crowds.
But in America, the cancer culture, it canceled me in the church and I decided I couldn't be canceled.
And that's just, I've seen that in the world today.
A lot of people stand up.
And I'm not talking about true people that have been truly hurt and, you know, the Me Too and the victims.
And you see all those crazy, sad stories out there like Bill Cosby and all the other people and the victims out of Hollywood and, you know, all that stuff.
But yeah, there's all today.
We just get on TikTok and decide to bully and just we want to remind people of mistakes they made and end their careers.
And it's a sad thing today.
And so I had to make a decision that can't be canceled.
I had to stand up and go, well, you can say what you want, write what you want.
Believe what you want, but I'm going to do what God called me to do, and that's not going to be easy, but I'm not going to stop my faith or believing because I had to overcome something in a public way, and you think I blew the standard.
Well, you're right, but how long am I a victim?
Can I not have restoration, healing, and forgiveness?
I mean, and so I offer hope to people that have even been in ministry but have been hurt because they were thrown out and they were the black sheep.
I've been marked.
I'm the black sheep, man.
I identify with Trump in a lot of ways, except for in the church they've come after me.
Religious people have come out to me.
Magazines, newspapers, articles.
Relentless.
I mean, they want to kill you.
And it's like, I love Jesus.
I'm trying to bring Jesus, but you want to do one sin and you want to nail me to the cross on that.
For you to come back and even not give up, not relent.
This is my calling.
I'm walking in it, even though it's painful, even though it's whatever.
I'm walking.
I know who I am.
See, people are so confused in America about who we are that they can't understand that.
That's like an anomaly.
People don't get it.
We all have our own past.
And I'm not talking about criminal things.
We're not talking about, you know, criminal.
But, you know, moral or we all blow it and we've all sinned and come short of the glory of God.
Even people in ministry full time.
But most pastors and leaders don't have a place they can talk about their struggles and issues.
So the more they try to hide it and then they have one blowout moment and then the whole world airs their dirty laundry out.
And undoes years and years of what they did.
And that kind of happened to me because I was a young man that wasn't ready to be cast into even the attention and the worldwide pressure that was coming on me as a young preacher in my 20s when I was in Lakeland, Florida.
People forget I was in my 20s then.
I'm 47 today.
I'm maturing and I'm much more of a mature believer today in 2023 going into 2024 than I was in 2019 or I was in 2015 or 2008.
But I take all that as wisdom and I use it to help people.
I do personal mentoring.
I do life coaching.
I do personal one-on-one discipleship.
I do it with leaders.
I do it with people from all over the world because they want to get face-to-face with me and go, you've been through some stuff.
Help me.
How did you do it in your life?
And I do that stuff because I want to give back because I could have given back.
And many times over I've wanted to give up, but you know why I didn't?
Because I keep believing that the revival, I can't forget that revival is coming even in the most unlikely dark shaking.
We're politically devastated.
This is why I can say revival and harvest and awakening is coming to America in 2024.
Whether Trump wins or not, I can't see Trump not winning, by the way, just without being prophetic, just by having Biden on the card.
I can't see anybody voting for another round of that.
Unless they totally hijack it, which they could, but I don't think the people...
And they could.
But the people won't stand for it.
Well, if it happens, I think we're going to have some civil wars in America, and I think we're not just going to have to vote war in Ukraine and Russia.
I think this is when Iran and China, and everyone will make a move on us if Biden wins again.
I think World War III, in many ways, will be...
You know, inevitable, just a matter of time.
I think we're just trying to appease, appease, appease.
Well, somebody's generation is going to have to deal with it.
Somebody's grandkids are going to have to deal with it.
Maybe Biden's like, well, I just got to hold on for one more year and get out with the Nobel Peace Prize.
And in the end, he doesn't care.
What, is he going to have 10 more years?
You know?
But that's not the point.
The point is these next generations, my children's children's children, and we're leaving the debt, and how many?
$33 trillion, whatever the debt is.
And nobody's thinking, because most of us that are 65 and older that are in politics, that's why you said I have an age limit, a term limit, they're going to pass away, and as long as their family's okay, and their nest egg is okay, and they're getting side money, From being a politician, because it's not a political salary that's keeping them going.
It's all the deals and the favor and the slushing around and the shoulder rubbing.
It's all the side deals and book deals and rub my back, rub your back.
Nobody wants to give that up.
And if you're 65 older, you just gotta make it out a few more years and keep it good for your family.
Who cares about those that are 20?
Who cares about the generation that's not born yet?
But God cares.
And that's where we're missing it.
If we don't bring God back into the scenario, we're going to, like Rome and all the other great empires, we will be irrelevant to the world seen globally, whether we'll even play a place as America in the end times in the Middle East.
That's yet to be seen.
And I don't know why we don't really see scripturally or in the Bible, where's America's role in the end times?
We'll either be a beacon of freedom or we'll just be a weak nation and we won't be a global superpower.
Right.
I don't believe that's God's will, and I don't believe it's the end yet.
I don't believe it's the end yet, and that's why we need to fight, fight, fight.
That's why we need to elect somebody different than what's in the White House right now.
And I feel it spiritually.
If you're a Christian, if you're a believer, I'm Canadian.
I have no stake in the game.
Why would I want to vote anyway?
I'm a Canadian.
I grew up on welfare.
I grew up in the social system of Canada, free medical, everything.
You know, we're a lot more left in Canada.
I don't like Trudeau.
Okay, but let me say this.
I feel like the Lord has called me as a watchman, not just to pray for the Middle East, but to pray for America.
Next year, I'm doing a full 360, and I'm taking pastors and leaders, and I'm going to Washington.
I'm going to the White House.
I'm having a dingers.
I'm going to have a dinner with Congress and I'm going to have revival meetings and I'm going to prophesy in Washington in the White House because I feel like the Lord has called me now to have a burden.
He's not giving me a prophetic word.
Who's going to win?
Is it going to be Trump?
Oh prophet, tell us.
That was the mistake a lot of the church made by bringing Trump into the evangelical base and almost making Trump the God and thus saith the word.
And then when it didn't happen, even the church went, oh my goodness.
And now we're having people that don't want to believe in things.
Like, does God speak?
I mean, is there a scripture?
I mean, we all were convinced God was saying Trump and we took the whole church world and pushed it into married politics.
And we've always been separated.
I'm not voting Trump again just because I'm a believer now and I'm not going to vote Trump because they made it unbelieving to vote Trump.
They made it corrupt and evil.
So now even Christians don't know if they want to vote Trump because they're afraid they're sinning because the last time they told all their family and friends, we're on the Trump train!
And then he didn't win.
And so you have all these disillusioned ex-Trumpers and ex-MAGA lovers that don't know how to vote Trump in 2024 because they were slapped in the face when he didn't win the last time and the election was stolen.
I want to say that because there's people listening to me and they're one of those people that God is saying, come back and vote the way you know you're supposed to vote.
That's right.
And vote.
Even though it's correct.
If we quit voting, they quit having elections.
That's what happened in Venezuela.
We have no choice.
We must all vote.
We have to vote.
We have to.
We have to show if it's our country, we're a bottom-up government.
We run the show.
The people that are in the seats right now, they think they run the show.
They don't.
They're our seats.
And we, the people, have to stand up and take our seats.
We can't lay down and play dead.
And it's just the same thing with the church.
So we've got pastors all over the country.
And I'll talk about Georgia because I'm in Georgia.
But We have pastors that they were so glad when Rogue got overturned, but they wouldn't mention it from the pulpit.
And we're like, why?
And I had thousands of volunteers and they were saying, you know, Candice, my pastor won't even address this.
I'm so angry.
I might go ask them why.
So they go ask why and they say, well, we don't want to offend anybody who may have had an abortion.
You don't have to endorse the character of a person to understand that the gifts and callings are without repentance, but we must vote for what's right, even if you don't like somebody's past, even if they don't act the way we act and don't have enough kindness or their mean tweeting or their whatever, pull out all the scandals and sin and corruption of Donald Trump's past.
But you're not voting for that.
that.
You're voting for his record that's already there that proves his policies, and you're voting for his policies, and you're voting them based on the state of the country right now.
And it doesn't take a rocket scientist to turn on the news, look at the state of the border, look at the economy, every issue right now, how many wars we got going on, and realize we need a different leadership.
And if it comes down to a Trump-Biden matchup, I don't know how anybody could not vote that Trump, unless it's just some other political reason and woe on to you that doesn't want to save America.
To me, if it wasn't Trump on the card and it was somebody else, we would still have to vote.
I'm always going to be Republican because at the end of the day, I'm a one or two issue man.
And for me, I'm a pro-life man.
And I'm not going to argue about it.
I'm not going to get political about it.
I'm pro-life.
I'm all about living.
I'm glad I lived and I had five brothers and sisters that didn't make it.
And my mom shouldn't have had me as the sixth baby.
They told her don't have another baby.
I made it out three point something pounds, lived in an incubator, and God put his hand on my life as a prophet.
And I spent years running in pain and drugs and addiction, living a total opposite life.
I didn't like Christianity.
I was in the occult.
I was a saint worshiper.
I mean, I was just into a lot of stuff.
And then when I met Jesus, man, I realized that God had a plan and a purpose, and I wanna live my life for that purpose, because there's no other reason to live anymore.
Once you discover the purpose of God for your life, And it's more than nine to five.
It's more than punching in.
Sometimes we got to make decisions based on what's right, you know, regardless of what, you know, comes down to how we eat money.
And that's a hard choice for a lot of Americans right now.
But we're going to have to make some hard choices here that might even be against your political background, because, you know, for your children that you love, you have to vote not Democrat, Republican.
That's my opinion.
I'm telling you that as a Canadian, I've got no stake in the game, no skin in the game.
I don't care what Christians are non-Christians.
Think of my opinion politically, but I'm just going, man, we need a strong president even to get through what's happening in the Middle East right now.
I don't want Biden to be at the helm should we go to war with Iran or any other country.
I want somebody else up there that's going to do something immediately, not wait for us to get tapped 73 times.
We have to have an alpha male.
We can't have somebody that people are like, oh, he don't even know where he is today.
But the pastors also, they have to speak truth and not be scared of offending people.
Our country is so scared, and they want to be politically correct.
If people have had an abortion, they are wounded.
They're traumatized.
They need healing.
They need Jesus.
Sure.
We're not forgetting them.
Yeah, you know.
I don't understand.
And I do want to talk, though, because we don't have it about, I'm thinking maybe seven minutes left, and I want to talk about the occult.
Because, Todd, I'm talking to teenagers all over the state.
I hear from people all over the country.
The occult is like wildfire right now.
So we have a Bible coming, and I believe these people are going to be set free.
It's the hunger people have.
They're looking for something.
Answer questions about the spirit realm because they know that life is more than just the 70 short years we have and that everything in this world is preparing us.
And listen, eternity is written in the heart.
When I was a young guy, I used to pray when I was in prison and I was on drugs and doing all the crazy stuff I did in my childhood, not wanting anything to do with religion.
I did the Ouija boards.
I listened to satanic bands.
I was a cult worshiper.
I used to cut myself and Make blood covenants and invite demons into my life.
Watch horror movies when I was five years old.
My dad would watch The Exorcist, all the horror movies.
He'd hide under my bed and laugh and think it was awesome to scare me at five, six, seven years old.
I watched everything evil that you shouldn't watch and I got involved in drinking at 11 and I was a thief and I beat my own mom before I was 13, put a belt to her face.
She put a knife to my neck.
I lived that kind of crazy life like we see a lot of young people on the streets in America.
I was totally homeless on the street, lost everything that I had before I was 16, didn't finish my education past grade eight.
And so I had this thing inside of me.
I wanted to know power.
I wanted to know where I was going, why I was here.
Nobody could tell me the demons weren't real.
Isn't this crazy?
Before I believed in Christianity or Jesus or being born again.
I literally, nobody had to convince me that demons, I knew demons were real.
I knew hell was real.
I was convinced in the dark side of the supernatural.
And I found comfort in it because one, I didn't like God and religion and my idea of what religion was.
I liked the idea of being my own God and the God of my own pleasure and whatever.
So I went that way into the new age, head over heel, horoscopes.
My mom watched horoscopes.
So I didn't have any kind of a church upbringing when I met Jesus Christ in my drug dealer's trailer and I heard the inner audible voice of God.
I got saved through a supernatural experience like Saul on the road to Damascus in the Bible, this God that I didn't even have faith in or believe in when I'm in my drug dealer's trailer and I'm trying to get another hookup for drugs and I'm not looking for Christianity.
I didn't go to church.
I didn't listen to an evangelist preaching.
I literally had God speak to me with this voice from the inside that welled up, and I could feel this hole inside of me.
You know, if you're real, and I could hear God saying, listen now, listen now.
And I was like, if you're real, Jesus, come into my life.
And I felt that hole fill up.
Something, I know, Jesus coming into that hole in my heart, that loneliness, you know.
And nobody had to tell me I had that hole.
And I was filling it with sex drugs and rock and roll and everything else that was anti-God.
You know, I was totally all that kind of stuff.
And then when I met Jesus supernaturally, he didn't have to show me his love in the way that he did.
But why we were yet sinners, God demonstrated his own love in that he gave his only begotten son that whoever should believe within him.
And when I think about why we were yet sinners, the cross already happened in the past, 2000 years ago, we didn't even have time to repent and he already died to show and demonstrate his own love for us.
So I surrendered to the love of God like a lot of young people need to today because they're seeking for answers because they know that There's a supernatural world.
And I don't try to convince people that the sorceries and the witchcrafts and the curses and all of that stuff's not real, that the psychics aren't real.
I just try to tell them, listen, here's what it does that's evil, and here's how you can know Jesus.
And when you know the Holy Spirit...
He becomes the spirit of truth and wisdom and revelation, and you can have the same kind of experiences in Jesus Christ, through the blood of Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, and you can know the reality of the invisible world.
We call it heaven, and we want to see heaven come to earth, and we want to release heaven on earth and bring people into transformation and see signs, wonders, miracles, cast out demons.
It's exciting.
So all I did was flip the darkness to the light, and a lot of people go, well, it's easy for you, Todd, the reality of the supernatural.
Because you were already in the dark side.
Were you a warlock?
Were you a saint?
I don't identify with those terms, but I was a believer in it all and I saw it all and I experienced it all.
So in Christ I expected, well, where are the angels?
Where's heaven?
Where's prophecy?
Where's visions?
Where's dreams?
I've always been drawn to that.
I like torn movies because I like sci-fi, and I like adventure, and I like fantasy, and I like Lord of the Rings, and I like Dungeons and Dragons.
So I realized something inside of me was searching for something more, and then I found out, man, heaven answers all that supernatural cry.
If young people...
If we can show young people...
Here's my vision.
I'm going to end it with this.
You probably...
I've got to throw it back to you.
I want to go to Times Square.
I want to rent the stage.
I want to get up on a Friday night in Times Square.
And I want to just start doing what I do and just start calling people out in the crowd because I get words of knowledge.
Hey, somebody here's got a problem in their kidney on the right side and I'm on a mic and I'm in Times Square.
Is anybody here right now and somebody waves at me?
Come on up here and I'm going to pray for you.
And then I pray for them and they get touched by the power of God.
Maybe they fall down on the stage.
They get up.
They don't feel the pain in their kidney.
And then I talk about its healing.
Does anybody else need healing this year tonight in Times Square?
My name is Todd Dentley.
I'm a revivalist.
And I just start calling people out, pointing at people in the crowd.
And I bring them up onto the stage and I demonstrate by giving them a prophetic word or a word of knowledge or a word of wisdom, whether people have ever heard those terms or not.
You know, are you a psychic?
No, I'm a prophet and I speak the word of God.
I speak about people's destinies and their gifts and their callings.
Why can't we showcase that to the world?
Like the old late night talk shows where they would bring out the psychic and he would talk to the dead people and he'd call people out of the studio audience.
How can they never did that with a prophet of God?
That's my challenge is to get out on media platforms and showcase that God speaks, that he's alive, that he heals, and we can have an encounter because we can argue all day long and debate theology.
But experience, when they experience the love, when they feel the presence of God, and they feel the peace of God.
And we should have an answer for the supernatural to young people that are seeking.
We shouldn't tell them it's all evil.
You know, yes, it's evil, but here's what you can have in Christ.
Let's redeem that dark supernatural.
Let's redeem the witchcraft.
And let's show them the better way than crystals, the better way than tarot cards.
Let them read people's spiritual mail through the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
That's what I get into, teaching on the gifts of the Holy Spirit, because that's the supernatural, and it's way more than any psychic of the world.
But I want to go beyond that, not just teach it and preach it.
I want to show it.
And I've been doing that for 25 years on the streets, on YouTube, where I showcase the power of God.
And people believe it or not, but here's a radical thing.
Todd Bentley, YouTube, Pakistan.
You do a search, Todd Bentley, YouTube, Pakistan.
And a video will come up of me raising a guy from the dead, and he literally gets raised from the dead on the YouTube video.
Todd Bentley, Pakistan, dead raising.
So, you know, I encourage people to, you know, follow us.
Did you lay on top of him?
I'm sorry?
Did you lay on top of him?
Yeah, well, actually, you know, it was a young boy.
He was nine years old, and I slapped him in the face three times real hard.
He was a dead Muslim boy.
He got raised from the dead.
This second guy that I saw get raised from the dead, they had his dead body laying on the stage, and I went over, and I'm over top of him.
It looks like I'm hitting him and doing CPR. But I'm not doing CPR because I don't even know how to do CPR. I'm hitting his chest going, in the name of Jesus!
In the name of Jesus!
And I'm bent over and hitting this guy and he gets raised from the dead.
There's like a million views.
There's a lot of negative stuff and a lot of fake stuff that people laugh and do all kinds of mockery of the power of God on YouTube too.
You've got to sort through it.
But there is a Todd Bentley Pakistan dead raising if you're looking for the truth.
It's also on my website under my YouTube channel, you know, freshfireusa.com.
That's my ministry, Fresh Fire USA. My husband was reading Acts the other day.
He had gone for a couple, about a week, he went through Acts.
And he said that he noticed when they were raising people from the dead, they were laying on top of them.
He said, I don't know if there's transference or whatever.
I've actually had times where I've laid.
Elisha and Elijah did that in the Bible.
Both of the prophets, Elisha and Elisha laid on...
And I've done that praying for the dead to be raised.
I've actually laid on them with my body on their body.
You know, they didn't go as far as my mouth on their mouth or my eyes on their eyes, but I've stretched myself out over not just people dead, but I stretched myself over somebody in the back of an ambulance in 2019.
The guy was in a coma and on life support.
They unplugged the life support.
He said he'll die today.
He's been there for 17 months and we've had him plugged in.
They had to unplug it and the family decided, well, we're not going to let him die here in the hospital.
We're taking him by ambulance to Todd Bentley's meeting because he prays for the sick.
We're going to ask him to pray because he's got a little bit of brain activity, but he's been in a coma for 17 months on a life support machine.
They unplugged it.
They said he'll die within hours, whatever.
They come to my meeting in an ambulance.
I jumped into the back, jumped on top of the guy's stretcher, stretched my body out over his body.
And the guy came out of his coma and was instantly healed and sat up with his eyes open.
Instantly, the doctor was there, the paramedics were there, the family was there.
10,000 people were outside because of the arena meeting I just did.
And we got this person totally healed off their deathbed in the back of the ambulance.
There is a video of that.
Some of these testimonies do have videos.
If people go to my website, FreshFireUSA.com, I have a media center and you can find me on YouTube as well.
I'm on Twitter, and I'm on X like you, and I love to share on there five, ten times a day.
I'm tweeting away.
What do we call it now?
Am I X-ing away or am I Twittering away?
I don't know.
I say tweeting.
I like ban X. I hate X. I pray for Elon.
I think Elon's got a darkness to him.
He needs deliverance, and he needs to find Jesus because I think God wants to do something great with him, and I hope he does.
I do pray for him.
I thought it was Antichrist for a while.
Maybe he is.
I don't know, but...
I'm glad he has a free social media.
I do like Twitter the best now.
It's my favorite media, but I'm like you.
Well, I mean, Rumble, I need to do.
I like Rumble.
You're on Rumble.
This show is on Rumble.
People need to check you out on Rumble.
I want all my friends and followers to look you up.
Candice on Rumble, and we're doing this show.
And so I hope all my friends and following over the years, you know, Check you out and find a way to, how do they find you?
Because maybe they're like, hey, the first time we watched you, we were glad you interviewed Todd.
You know, it's a little outside of the box of my normal type interviews, but I've had the most fun.
So a lot of my friends and followers are going to want to follow you because they're really big into praying for the nation.
They're intercessors.
They're burnt warriors.
Tell me really quick how I can have people find you from my influence, because I'm going to share this everywhere I can on all my social media.
So just Candace Taylor, my name's spelled different, so y'all see how it's spelled, but y'all just, I'm on all social media platforms in Candace Taylor, and y'all message me, and that's how Todd and I met, talking, and I'm very interactive with my followers, and we have- Jesus, guns, and babies.
Jesus, guns, and babies.
I was like, that's what drew me, Jesus.
Well, that went viral on Twitter.
And so after it went viral on Twitter, I just, I started like really paying attention to how politicians don't say Jesus.
And I'm like, you know what?
If we all say Jesus and we all are with him, then we're not going to be lying and stealing and doing corrupt things.
And so I just kind of pushed them on that.
I'm like, are you a Christian?
Well, why don't you ever say Jesus when you're doing these speeches all over the place?
Yeah, and sometimes I do my interviews and I'm over the top preaching, over the top Jesus.
And it can get me, especially on the secular shows, it can get me in trouble.
But I have nothing to lose and I let people know before they get into it who I am.
And I'm no compromise.
I'm sold out.
I'm radical.
You may not understand all my terminology, but people are going to feel my passion.
They're going to feel the Spirit of God, not the energy.
I call it the Spirit of God.
You know, I don't want to sound new agey, but anybody that's listening to this program, regardless of their faith, because they're following you, they like you, it's political.
And they want to check out what we're doing.
I do want to pray for them.
And I want to pray for people that are like, I have a drug addict son or I have a drug addict daughter.
Do we have a minute?
I can just pray real quick.
No, yes.
We can go over.
Yes, we're fine.
Father, the power of God is precious to us both.
The power of God.
And the power of God that cuts through both the religious, the political spirit.
We need that focus.
That can cut through the things that blind our hearts and minds from the glorious gospel of Jesus.
The light shining through the clouds.
And Father, I pray for those struggling, even with addiction, hopelessness, despair, anxiety, God, that the chains would be broken.
And that the power of the Holy Spirit would bring the freedom and the comfort and the strength they need.
That people would find their desire for the very things that they've been bound to.
You'd wake up one morning and go, I don't even desire this cigarette.
I don't desire this drug.
I don't desire this alcohol.
What happened to my appetites?
Well, the Holy Spirit gave you a new appetite.
If you ask Him, come Holy Spirit, keep coming, give me a new appetite.
Only the Spirit of God can make you crave the things that are holy and right, and there's needing to be a change of your appetite.
So when you surrender to Him, fill me Holy Spirit, help me Holy Spirit, let the Holy Spirit in, He will change your very desire, your appetite.
You won't desire the darkness.
You won't desire the depression.
You won't find comfort in the evil anymore.
Because your entire desire will become a holy desire.
And God, I speak this over people right now that are going to hear, watch the video replay.
They're going to respond even to this very part of the program.
And they're going to open their hearts and meet you.
Lord, just invite them in and say, come into my life, Jesus.
He will.
Surrender.
Ask Him to come into your life because we need Him.
And He'll be that power.
He'll be that strength.
And I command deliverance to flow.
In Jesus' name, freedom to flow and joy to flow.
And I hope you prayed that prayer.
You know, seek us out.
Seek Candice.
Seek myself.
Seek us out on social media.
Let us know that you prayed that prayer.
If you want us to pray for you a little bit more, I know that we can.
We can.
And you know what?
I'm so thankful you gave some testimony because people really, they know you, they know.
But if they don't know, the whole time we've been talking, even before we started, I told you I felt the fire of the Holy Spirit.
And so, you know, sometimes you'll get chill bumps and you'll feel the Lord and you'll know He's there.
But immediately I started feeling heat in my body.
Yeah.
And God, He cleanses us with heat.
He refines us.
And so when you were talking through this, Todd, I thought, I hope I'm different this year than I was last year.
And I hope in a year's time, if somebody hasn't been around me, they think, golly, Candice is more like Jesus.
She's a better person.
And I hope that we all do that.
That should be our goal, is to be, as a Christian, more and more like Him.
So many things, but we're going to get off here and I'm going to pray with Ryan because there's a couple of things God has put in my And my thoughts, even here, that I need to pray over my house with teenagers.
And so, you know, we should constantly be listening and thinking and trying to be more like Him.
Amen.
The Word has got to be our standard, and that's why it's important to have a relationship with God and His Word every day as well.
I read the Word every day.
I pray every day, even if it's a minute a day or at the end of my day.
I've got to get the Word in, because that's the only way we can renew our mind and embrace transformation and be conformed to His likeness, is we've got to know what He's saying.
Not just what our favorite preacher is saying, not just what our favorite podcast is saying, but what is the Word of God saying?
And so whether we start the day, end the day, you know, we've got to have time for the Word.
You know, have it at break time, have it at lunchtime, read a psalm, read a psalm, get some of the Word.
The more light you get in you, there'll be less darkness, you know?
And so I tell people that are even struggling, they're like, I can barely pray or read the Word.
I was like, read a couple of scriptures.
The more light you let in, it'll get easier day by day.
The more you pray a little today, the more you'll be praying more tomorrow.
And so you've got to start, right?
It's like going to the gym.
You don't just throw up the big bad boy weights.
You start small.
And so, you know, starting out spiritually, don't be overwhelmed by the great testimonies of people raising the dead and going all over the world.
Let's break it down and go, how did it start for you, Todd?
Acts 4.13.
You open with that verse, my life's a verse out of the book of Acts chapter 4.13.
These unlearned, untrained, uneducated But they have been with Jesus.
And that's what qualified me.
Tell me your story again, Todd.
What kind of Bible calls?
What kind of seminary?
What kind of education you got?
Well, I'm a weak.
God took the weak, foolish things of the world.
I don't know why he uses me, but I gave him my yes.
And I was radical enough to say whatever it cost me.
And God knew my personality wasn't afraid to go into all the world so he could use me.
And plus the fire of the Holy Spirit and the baptism of the Holy Spirit and getting filled with power help.
But I surrendered all and I said, God, these men, they were like me, unlearned, untrained fishermen, sinners, prostitutes, tax collectors.
I can identify.
I wasn't a doctor.
I wasn't a lawyer.
I wasn't an athlete.
Not that those things are wrong, but I didn't have any gifts or talents at all.
And I said, Jesus, I'm going to err on the side of spending four to 12 hours a day in prayer.
You know that in the early days of my life, I would pray four to 12 hours a day alone with God in my prayer room.
Not because I had to, but I got to.
And I thought that was normal every day to talk to the Holy Spirit for eight hours.
And I did that for months and months and months.
Even to this day, I'll have days, weeks where I pray hours a day.
I write sometimes two hours a day.
I'm in and out.
It's like a job.
You know, I give myself continually to the Word of God and prayer.
And I don't mean that for boasting and bragging, but 25 years later, my favorite message I teach, I write on The Secret Place, experiencing and knowing God.
In the secret place.
And how we can all experience God in prayer.
You know, the secret place.
And so, even though I do evangelism.
That's how things happen.
That's how, you know, the secret place.
I've got a book on it.
The secret place, you know.
And y'all should order it.
That's my number one message.
They'll put it in the bottom.
But put that back up.
Y'all go buy it.
Yeah, it's just the secret place.
How to experience the intimacy with God you've always wanted.
And there's an author out of Redding, California.
His name is Bill Johnson from the Bethel Church.
He wrote the foreword and he was like, man, Todd, there was more not just testimonies and your own stories of how you encounter God in the secret place, but you gave a lot of tips on how to and how to pray and who were the desert fathers and the silent prayer of the heart and soaking in prayer and how we can all grow in intimacy and experience the presence and peace of God in a greater way.
And that can lead to visions, revelations, hearing the voice of God.
But people got to learn how to have the intimacy.
And this is my whole life story testimony.
And 25 years I put into this small little book.
People can get it anywhere.
I'm going to go buy it right now, y'all.
And I'm going to send it to my brother, Chase, that's in jail.
I can send him a book.
So I'm going to go do that right now.
So if you have somebody that's on drugs right now, go do that for Christmas.
It's Christmas time.
They can read in jail.
Do that.
And I'm going to buy one.
I do.
And, you know, we have all our resources in I love you,
you.
God bless you and God bless America.
Hey everybody.
I want you to go to heavensharvest.com promo code Candice, and I want you to get prepped.
We don't know what's coming, who knows, but regardless whether it's a hurricane, national disaster, or the whole government shuts down, they have awesome deals on freeze-dried food.
In fact, they have a new item, it's freeze-dried cans.
It's a lot less expensive than the big barrels.
