SID: Now I think you would like to see Heaven. Would you? Would you like to see Heaven? Would I like to see Heaven? Tell me about what goes on when you pray for people to see Heaven.
SHAWN: You know, I feel like we have an everlasting life and we’re supposed to be as in touch with that everlasting part as we’re in touch with this side of eternity. And when you read about the reports of Heaven throughout history, people got in touch with the beauty. It’s not a thousand-year boring prayer meeting in Heaven right now. What goes on around Jesus is the most beautiful expression of fun, adventure and connection you’ve ever had. And so I started to explore that and eventually I thought I was just doing it theologically, but eventually I started to sense that. Some of us sense it and worship like you’re in a heightened state of spiritual awareness and you’re actually a part of the heavenly scenario. But there’s times that I’ve pray for people and they literally had a deposit. They’ve seen into Heaven and they brought something back, a revelation, a truth, something about a resource that they were going to get a prophetic word for their life that they got from God. And when you get it from God yourself it’s hard not to believe it, especially when you have an encounter with God. We’ve even had people come back and they actually brought body parts back. They’ve seen what’s available in the Father’s heart. They brought body parts back. It’s been a while since that’s happened, but we had a woman get a liver back. Her husband prayed for her, she needed a liver, she needed a liver transplant. He prayed for her and a brand new—
SID: You realize there are people watching us right now and they’re saying, eww! What do you say to that person?
SHAWN: I just say if we pray for you right now and you receive it and it happens to you, you won’t say impossible again.
SID: I am so glad you wrote your book and you have those, we put together your three-CD set. But I know that there is going to be repercussions. There are people that will never be able to get your book throughout all the former Soviet Union. I mean, I’m amazed at how God has spread It’s Supernatural. But I know if you pray for people they’re never going to be the same.
SHAWN: Absolutely.
SID: I want you to start out by praying for us to have the heart of love, not the heart of professionalism or the heart of religion, but the heart of the Father’s love and be sure to pray that we can see Heaven, too. I gave you a big assignment to hear God’s voice. Let’s see, I have another laundry list.
SHAWN: Let me pray. I just pray for you now that God would demystify the way you thought hearing his voice was that it would feel more organic like a family member who’s talking to you, who is loving you, that you would all of a sudden notice and become aware. I pray an impartation of spiritual awareness, of spiritual understanding for your own relationship with God and as you grow in that depth of authority, as you begin to see where he’s speaking. I pray that you would take great risk based on what he’s saying. I pray that you would become so in tune with who God is around you, where he is around you that Jesus would be so made manifest to you. I impart every supernatural spiritual gift I have that’s transferable right now over the television, to everyone in the studio audience. I pray for deep impartation and I pray that you would see where Jesus is. This is Heaven. He’s in Jesus right now. The Throne of God is there, all the angels around him. There’s no reason why we can’t be in touch with it because that is our everlasting. We’ll be with Jesus forever, so I pray that you would right now somehow, Ephesians 3:2 says, “We are seated in heavenly places.” I pray somehow you would feel part of you is tied to the everlasting eternal scenario right now that you would see yourself, you would see God there that you would have revelatory visions and revelatory experiences that you never dreamed possible. I pray that God would expand your imagination but then take you past your imagination that he would give you a love that would cause you to continue to hear his voice to the nations. It’s so easy to focus on what he’s not doing. I pray that you would see what he is doing right now. It’s so easy to see what you’re not. I pray that you would see through the eyes of love from the Father who you are to him and I pray you would have a revelatory encounter with that love right now in the name of Jesus.
SID: You told me last night over dinner, and this was, you think your mind is blown now, wait until you hear this. You went to a school, a place that formerly was a school of Spiritism. Explain. Tell me that.
SHAWN: One of the owners of the Hollywood Club called me up and said, “Can you come over and pray. We’ve had a [unintelligible]. We’ve had the white witch of Studio City, Hollywood, come and no one has been able to clear out the demons. This used to be the Paranormal School of Supernatural Activity for Hollywood. It was actually a school. For like over a decade it was a school in Hollywood where they teach people how to do Spiritism.
SID: And they could get rid of these key spirits. [unintelligible]
SHAWN: So all the nannies were like quitting the four owners. They were quitting, only one of the owners was saved as a brand new Christian. The other three owners weren’t saved. One was Catholic, but he was just coming to full belief for Jesus. The other two weren’t saved at all. One of them was the new age captain of the group who kept bringing everybody and paying a lot of money to get this place cleared and it wasn’t working. Over months they were losing all their employees. So I went ahead and everything was slowed down, the construction and everything. So I went in with a group. They were all Asian. So I went in with a group of Asian intercessors who I love. I love this group. And we went in there together and I said, “Okay guys,” I had the owner sit down with me and I said, “We’re going to do something.” And I heard the Holy Spirit say, “ If they will give me the ownership I’ll drive out every spirit.” And I had a little strategy. I could never have done this on my own strength. I was like, I don’t know that this can’t be redeemed. [unintelligible] I don’t know. I don’t know what we’re going to do about the situation, but I heard God and I said to everybody, “Okay, I want you to close your eyes and repeat after me.” I said, “Okay.” I said, “This is going to be really hard.” Because they had been through all this ritual assignments with all the witchcraft and stuff. And I said, “Say this after me: Holy Ghost!” And they said, “Holy Ghost!” And I said, “Be the only ghost here! Amen.” And one of them looked up at me and he goes, “No. No.” And I said, “Okay, is God a spirit?” And they said yes. And I said, “If you ask God to be here can anything else be as powerful as God?” And they all said no. I said, “Okay, let’s see what happens. I’m going to leave. Let’s see what happens.” So I went back five weeks later and I asked them, “You guys, how is your lives? What’s going on?” And one of the guys said, “Nothing is wrong. There’s no spirits.” He said, “As a matter of fact, I’ve given my life to Jesus.” The other two guys were so close. “This is so crazy what happened here like we’ve had no visitation. All of our nannies are fine. [unintelligible] No one is having bad dreams.” It was night and day difference, and now I’ve gone back years later and it’s been fine. It’s like it never happened.
SID: You know, my peanut brain says everyone has to be a believer in Jesus for this to happen. That’s my peanut brain. But I’m going to tell you something, eye has not seen, ear has not heard. All that God has in store for you, that’s right, I’m talking about God, all that, I want you to hold your head up. I want you to forget what’s happened in the past. I want you to tell Jesus be my Lord. I want to you to repent of your sins, tell him you’re sorry. Ask him to live inside of you and watch what God is going to do.
SHAWN: I had one more user name. I never get user names, but I ask God for the information I never get. Terry Bishop 911. Terry Bishop, you’re working on the show and I’m getting you.
Terry: That is my user name, Terry Bishop 911.
SHAWN: The Lord says you live in a pleasant place. What does that mean to you?
Terry: I live on Pleasant Hill.
SHAWN: Come on.
