Bible David's Unexpected Encounter that changed everything!

0:00 His eyes was glowing with great light, and he looked at me and he had thought, the most remarkable love and the most remarkable peace and power at the same time. And then Jesus spoke words that changed my life. Apostle Bible David, it's great to have you here on Charisma News. And yes, ladies and gentlemen, we will find out the story behind his name. It is actually Bible David's, and God is using him in an apostolic way that you are not gonna believe. God is expediting a lot of the process that he's prepared him for.

0:40 And so he's seeing extreme growth in the kingdom, and we're gonna talk about that in a little bit. But even from the time of his birth, God has ordained him, and we're gonna talk about the experience that his mother had, and it's gonna be an amazing, amazing story. So Apostle Bible, it's great to have you here on Charisma News. Well, thank you so much, beloved. I'm excited to be here, and I just extend a lot of love and gratitude to the Lord and to you for the remarkable work that you're doing. And I'm so pleased, and we're praying the Lord is just gonna use all of this to bless somebody.

1:21 Amen, amen. Well, from the little bit of time that we've had before we hit record, which is always a lot of fun, you started telling me this story of your mother's experience with Jesus, and she didn't just grow up in a Christian family, or she didn't grow up in a Christian country, really. But I just wanna ask you to kind of set this story up because your name comes out of this experience that your mother had. So tell us about her. Yeah, my mother of blessed memory was on a pilgrimage to Mecca, having been married to my father, who happened to be a fanatical Islamist.

2:02 And I'm talking about on an extremist level. I mean, like he was polygamous, and he would make a pilgrimage to Mecca almost every year. And so as they embarked on this Mecca pilgrimage, she was excited to be part of that because at the time she was the third wife, and she seemed to be the favorite wife. And apparently it was a great time, and she just was loving the vacation and was going about the Qabah. And she said she had almost what seemed like a switch, all of a sudden. She was supposed to be enjoying all that Islamist adventure, but she felt burdens that was unusual and unrelated to the environment that she was in at the time.

2:53 And she was having flashes of the cross. She was having flashes of Jesus. And so when they got back in the hotel room, she would have more and more intense dreams about the Lord. So she encountered the Lord on her pilgrimage to Mecca. And now returning back to Nigeria, we happen to be also fundamentally Islamist towards the North. And there's a lot of Christians in those areas, but there's a large population of Muslims. Then she was having deeper encounters with God all of that season. Then it became operate to her that she could not push it aside.

3:35 So she went over and started attending church secretly. So when my father found out, it put her life into geopolitical new that if she did not take off, she was going to lose her life because these people are not playing. So she took off and ran into a local church community with some Christian people, heard her story and covered her. And at that time she was pregnant with me. So I was growing up, or I was born literally into that church-centric experience, being the son of an Islamic fanatic or extremist that I never really seen because my mom had run away with me because I may not have been here today if she did not take off.

4:26 And then all of a sudden, growing up in that place, she became sure my mother was certain without the shadow of a doubt that God had a plan for my life. And she was determined to protect that plan and so she named me Bible. And so it was super unusual for me. And everything seemed normal because after a while she got herself a small place and we grew up in that reality, we would go to church like literally every other evening for revival meetings. Then something unusual happened to me when I was about 10 years old.

5:11 Jesus Christ, he walked into the room one of the evenings when we got back from church, this was in 1989 on the fifth day of April, 1989, Jesus walked into the room and he spoke to me. He, so we just got back from one of those evening services and apparently, we'll start making dinner when you return and as I lay on the floor, just waiting for the dinner to be served, my siblings and my mom were in the other room and as I lay on the floor, waiting the glory of God, I could not tell if I was watching this like a panoramic view physically or if it was a spiritual experience.

6:00 But what I knew at that age is that the glory of God, Jesus, that was a bright light that came first and I just thought, what's going on? Then he walked into the room and then I jumped up and I saw him and his eyes was glowing with great light and he looked at me and he had such the most remarkable love and the most remarkable peace and power at the same time. And then Jesus spoke words that changed my life and then he talked to me about the special call that he had for me and said, you will be my ambassador to the nations.

6:45 And when he said those words, the power of the Lord came on me and at that age, I began to demonstrate and manifest the gift of the spirit right from that encounter. I was speaking in tongues, I was prophesying and I was sobbing heavily and I was quaking at the same time. And then after a while, I did not know that he had lifted, that the vision had lifted because I was still in that all-stroke experience of God. And then I shouted, when I shouted, I shouted, I yelled out, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, because of the overwhelm of the glory of God.

7:29 And then my mom and sister, they ran there, but I could not stop, I was still sobbing. They annoyed it was on me and I was prophesying and I was speaking in tongues and the power of God was moving in that room. And then my mom was perplexed, she did not know what to do. So they began to call neighbors, they began to call pastors, you know, somebody that could help him, we don't know what's wrong with him. And then God was giving me words for people and the spirit of conviction will fall on them. And then they would say, we don't know why we're crying, we don't know why we're feeling the awesome presence of God, but just to connect and hear you voice, it's still upon us the power of God.

8:13 And then as all of that continued, a pastor of Calvary Bible Church was standing by and he was watching everything going on. And the pastor came close and he said to my mom, well, your son had had the most profound encounter with Jesus, can I invite him to my church? And he could share with my congregation what the Lord Jesus told him. So about three weeks later, they invited me over to this church, about 250 people were there. It was quite a small church and they had a big elevated podium. I'll never forget that. It was so ginormous that you have to walk into it like the old cathedrals.

8:58 And then I was not even visible through the other side because of my small side. So they had to put a little elevation under my feet. And as I stood on that podium, I began to speak to the people about my encounter with the Lord, what he looked like, what he told me. I saw the glory of God because Jesus was standing right at the back and I could see him. And I told everybody he's here. And when I say those words, the power of God blew through out the room and people were getting convicted of their sin. It felt like a massive revival and we started to record healing.

9:40 So over the years, I have seen the same anointing, the same consciousness of the presence of God and the power of God just manifested across nations. The Lord has allowed me to travel to literally four continents and many, many countries conducting meetings and conferences and planting churches. And the most part of our work up until now, the God led us in the US, had been done in Canada. And what we've been seeing is just phenomenal the outpouring of the glory of God. So at the core of what we do and what we are as a ministry and just the essence and the DNA of our assignment is to proliferate that, the very essence and the life source of the person and the power and presence of God and to protect that anointing and to continue to bring people into that realm of glory.

10:44 And we've seen literally millions of lives impacted by our ministry. Wow, wow, so this all started from encounters that your mother was having with Jesus. Yes. And you said that even when she was going around the, I forget even the term, it's that giant cube in Mecca. Yes, it's called the Kaaba. The Kaaba. Yes, so she was going, like this is the holiest place in all of Islam and she is encountering Jesus there. What were some of the encounters that she had because that seems to be a generational thing where it's running in your family. And I believe that's gonna carry on quite a bit.

11:26 But what are some of those encounters that she had that gave her the faith to leave and to go to that church? Right. Tell me about some of those. Yes, my mom was a very loyal wife to her husband. She had no, nothing, no consciousness whatsoever of just having any encounter with Jesus. It was the most unusual encounter. And she was having flashes of the light and the cross and the presence of God. And she would say to me that, I heard the voice that spoke to me and say, you don't belong here, get out of this place.

12:13 Get out of this place, seek the light, follow the cross. And those words were reverberated in her. And she was carrying a heavy body of the presence of God. It was abstract for the most part. It was flashes of the glory of God and the presence of God and words that kept telling her not to stay where she was and to leave that place. And that same consciousness just ruined the entire truth for her. And just as she went back, whether we're on the plane, whether we're returning, it just continued.

12:55 I'm gonna send you pictures of her in Mecca at that time. And so it continued when they got back to Nigeria. Could not stay still. She was still loved. He didn't understand what was happening with her, but he was like, what's going on? But she knew she was having supernatural encounters with the Lord. And at the point that she made up her mind and said, this is it, I'm not gonna be here anymore. That was the point that she started going to church at first secretly attending revival services. And then eventually she knew she had her wrong for her life because he found that she was going to church and it was gonna be a lot of trouble.

13:42 Yeah. So thank you for sharing more details of her encounters. Those are things that are really interesting. And I know a lot of people care deeply about what those encounters are like because we all want God to encounter us. We all wanna have those encounters with Jesus where it's like he is there and you know it. And you've had those experiences and those encounters as well. And they've marked your life. And it has really helped you launch this ministry that you're doing. And God's brought you to Canada and now you're in the Dallas, Fort Worth area. And you've only been there, but not even a full year.

14:22 And God has been blowing up the ministry and you're seeing a tremendous amount of fruit already. Tell us about that. Right. Post COVID, the spirit of the Lord was impressive on me to expand our ministry reach to the United States and the Lord specifically gave instructions about being in the DFW. So we came up by faith with no church affiliation or network and myself, my family and a few of our ministry team that had come along from Canada. We began to conduct revival meetings from the 4th of December of 2022. And this is just about 10, 11 months ago.

15:06 And the harvest and the uproar of the Holy Spirit literally hit the region as God began to send a wave after wave of revival and healings and delivers. And the hunger that's in the earthworm today is unprecedented. We've never seen such an uproaring of the Spirit of God and it feels like we are living through the very essence of the Joel 2,28 prophecy where God says, I will pour out my spirit. Within the first 12 weeks, by the time we hit the first week of March, the harvest that God was sending and the number of souls that were coming to Jesus and people getting healed and getting delivered was so much.

15:53 It was incestuous for us to open the second campus in Grand Perry. Yes, so we opened another one in the Jefferson Street area of the Grand Perry and the explosion continued. But I felt that the Lord wanted to do more because he kept giving me encounters as well. And this has been the way that our ministry would navigate, not by the will of May, but every single time that the Spirit of the Lord wanted to bring a major shift, it would call me to a place of intimate encounters, of prayer, prophetic intercession. And as I began to seek the Lord, it becomes clear that God was gonna birth something new the next phase.

16:38 And God was saying, believe me for thousands. And at the time being that we just got to the region, not barely four months, I did not know what I was gonna look like. But he told me, seek me in the fast season and the people of God were fasting and praying. And at the end of that, the Lord birthed a revival movement. By the time we hit the month of June, we were able to do a big outpouring outreach in Dallas Fort Worth that hosted 10,000 people in one service. And he wasn't just, because it's unprecedented, I could not even understand such a wave of the Spirit of God that the Lord said.

17:26 I knew God was going to pour in His glory and thousands would be blessed through it. And when we started to announce the event and make campaigns about it, I said, okay, if the Lord, because he told me expect thousands. I said, maybe the Lord want to send two or 3000 people. But by the time we hit the second thought fourth week, we had over seven to 8,000 people who had registered and the hunger continued to increase. It was the Holy Spirit movement. We had to change the venue from the initial place we're gonna have the event and move to a whole different place. But what's even the bigger testimony was not the fact that thousands came but the glory of God that hit the place.

18:14 And they are pouring of revival. And the testimonies, a lot of people came and I remember the story of a gentleman that said that he was initiated into the Masonic order as a child. And he gave his heart to the Lord after a while, but a spirit of societal depression spirit just plagued his life. He sought for freedom beyond just the entrance level of salvation. He wanted to encounter the power of God and he did not have that experience until he walked into that revival ground and many thousands more were getting healed, getting delivered. People, it was like the Holy Ghost just swept through the room.

18:55 So God has continued beyond that first encounter to take us into seasons where there was all of a sudden an exposure and explosion of our ministry in the region as hundreds literally every week began to show up. Now we just move to a new building that could accommodate larger numbers. And so we're getting ready for the second outpouring of the spirit of God on the 18th of November this year, which is about 25 days from now. We expect in the Lord to just heal more people, even greater than what he did the first time.

19:37 So we have a lot of ministry friends that are collaborating with us to kind of step into the front line of this wave of the spirit of God that is happening right now. Pastor Greg O'Lough is joining us. Isaiah is going to be there. Apostle Pagani is going to be there. And also Dr. Malachi O'Brien, they're all coming to be part of this wave of the spirit of God that's just hit the DFW. We got told us to build a house of prayer and power in the region and to take that fire across the United States. So we're going to be seeing such manifestations of the spirit of God that's unprecedented over the next weeks and months.

20:22 The Lord say that's going to happen. Amen, amen. And you've got some, I'll say heavy hitters there involved with you there. And with Pastor Greg Locke and Alexander Pagani, Isaiah, Saltervar, I mean, those are people that we're very well connected with. And we love seeing what God has been doing in their ministries. And if they're connected with you, that says a lot brother, that really does. What are some testimonies of individual people as a result of these outpourings that are happening? Because we know that when the presence of the Lord inhabits a place and he inhabits the praise of his people, but people shouldn't leave the same way that they came.

21:04 If things are happening, we know that there is testimonies that are resulting from this. What are some testimonies that you can share from these, not just events, but from this outpouring? Right, excellent question. I believe also that change lives is the evidence of an authentic ministry. And we've seen hundreds of testimony, but I'm going to share about two or three that literally stands out for me. So on one of the evening services that we had, an elderly lady walked into the service. And the moment that the Lord connected my eyes to lock on her, I saw and I felt a demonic presence that was wrapped around her.

21:48 And I did not know at first what the detail of this was. But the Spirit of the Lord told me to call her and pray gently for her. So one called her out. And she got closer to me. And a ministry team was there as well, supporting and praying. God was downloading specific insight about just a demon that had been prevalent in her family bloodline and how it has held her bound. And as I began to pray, there was a manifestation, a very violent manifestation, where a spirit was speaking from this lady and was saying that it had come from a paternal bloodline of a grandmother.

22:31 And it was there to kill her son. Just say, I'm there to kill her son. Speaking through this woman. And there's nothing nobody could take her out of my hand. So God told me, break the covenant. Break the covenant. So we began to pray. I broke the covenant. And I rebuked the spirit, get out of her in the name of Jesus. Immediately, the power of God came on this woman. And she was free. When she got up, she said, well, everything that happened is just what has been happening in her life. She had three sons. And the devil had been killing the sons. It had been a terrible tragedy in their family. The first son died of drug overdose.

23:12 And the second son was a victim of gun shooting. And she said, I have only one son. And he's now addicted to drugs. And he's on his way to just dying. And I don't know. But if the Lord deliver me today, I'm going to come back next week with my son. So the following week, true to her word, she came back to the service and had her son standing beside her in the service. And when I saw him, you could tell that the cold hand of Satan through addiction was present on his life. It was an overwhelming presence of darkness.

23:55 And I called him to the altar. And I prayed for him. And it was a manifestation of the Spirit of God on his life. And the Lord set him free immediately. So about two, three weeks passed, I did not see either the mom or the son. I did not hear from them. My ministry team tried to reach them. We couldn't get hold of them. We did not know what happened. And about three weeks later, this young man walked into the building. And believe me, I could not recognize him. He had changed completely. He looked healthy. He had given his heart to the Lord Jesus.

24:36 And he said that day was the last time he touched the drugs. Wow. He was clean. He wore a nice suit. And he looked great. And he said, I just came to share my testimony that the Lord has changed my life completely. Wow. Now, another testimony that also can stand out for me is. Yeah, please share. Yeah, another amazing man of God, a US veteran. He was part of the war. And he had fallen out of the aircraft during a combat mission.

25:17 And then he broke his knees. And according to him, he had every surgery possible. I have videos of these encounters, all of these. He said, there's no way ever because he had a dislocation of the disc at the back. He was in excruciating pain every time. And the power of the Lord came on him. And it was healed anxiously. And as I speak to you today, sir, that man is healed. He runs faster than anybody.

25:57 Wow. Yes. The Lord has visited the day of W. He started to pull his glory on the region. And we know the fire is going to spread across the United States. We're sure of it. We're going to keep finding the flame. And we're going to keep seeing many more thousands of people suffering out of power of God. Yeah. So you've got this conference coming up in just a few weeks in November. And you've got these powerhouses that are coming. How can people find out more information about this? Excellent. So you could go to the website, bibledavid.org.

26:39 And the link there is slash dmd. So bibledavid.org slash dmd, which is Dallas Mass Delivers. Bibledavid.org, B-I-B-L-E-D-A-V-I-D-S dot org slash dmd. And then you'll see all the details about the conference, all of the guest speakers, and the actual venue that we are using, and all the information and the FAQs are there. Thousands are already registering. This is going to be a big display of the power of God.

27:19 All of this very carefully handpicked servants of God who have proven integrity and proven ministry are going to be there. They've been praying about it. I've been communicating with them. They've been fasting and sickening the Lord to just pour His anointing on the region. And on every life that will be present. And that's what we want to see. The Lord say to us, this event is not just your usual cliche conference. It is the hospital of the spirit and is going to be a battleground. It's a place where, as kingdom generals, all of this men of God, combining forces with myself and my wife, are going to go to the enemy's territory.

28:10 And we're going to pull people out of the close of the enemy. We're going to trust God to break generational curses, to break addictions, depressions, schizophrenia, all kinds of sicknesses and diseases. People, the last one we had, we were taking crutches from people because we were extending our faith. The gift of the spirit was moving. Jesus was glorified. And a lot of people were blessed. So that's what God is going to do more for us in this coming conference. November the 18th, November the 18th, 2023. It's a Saturday. It's a one day only conference. The gates were open at 7 AM. The conference was start at 9 AM.

28:53 And it's not your usual, it's a warfare. Everybody comes on the front line. We pull people out. We preach the Word in power. And we let the Holy Spirit move and set people free. Amen. Amen. That sounds exciting. We're going to definitely have to connect with you again as that event is wrapped up. And we can hear some testimonies from that. But Apostle David, whenever I have the opportunity to have somebody like yourself on, I like to ask them to pray for the people that are watching. So in just a moment, I'm going to ask you to do that. But you said that you've had several different encounters with Jesus and even some recently.

29:36 Can you share another one of those encounters and what God has been revealing to you? Praise God. The Lord has allowed me access into the God realm. And when God breaks the pothos and He brings you into beyond the outward core and it causes you to walk into the holy place. And He invites you repeatedly. He does it specifically to superimpose a revelation or a level of consciousness of His presence and power into your life. So over the years after my first initial encounter with the Lord, He had continued to give me ongoing encounters.

30:19 Sometimes it comes a couple of times in a year. Now, just about the time we first got to the DFW, like it's my usual custom. That's what I do every morning. Or for the most part of the morning, I would pray I walk in the morning. And I'll get up about 4 or 5 AM. And I walk for about maybe an hour or sometimes two hours as God just gave me grace. Or if the weather is pleasant, I just keep walking. So this particular morning, I got out of bed. And I was still sitting behind the head of the bed, not fully awake.

31:01 But I knew I was getting ready to go on a prayer walk. And then now I saw that my wife got up from the bed. And she moved towards the ride to go towards the bathroom. And then, and while I was still laying behind my back, I saw all of a sudden somebody was walking also towards this side of the bathroom where my wife had walked initially. And he had a calmness to his presence.

31:43 And I knew I was not sleeping. Definitely, I was just lying there and trying to calibrate my thought. And as he walked past, he wore a white robe. And it was like he was floating in the air. It felt like he was not walking. He didn't have steps. Like his movement was so very sublime and straight that I couldn't tell if he was walking or if he was floating through. But still, my brain and my mind was still kind of, maybe it was my wife. But then, all of a sudden, after he moved this way, I saw my wife, she was returning back from the washroom.

32:25 And as she was coming back, that was when it dawned on me that there was a thought person that I had just seen. And I said, I jumped up. I said, oh my god, what color were you wearing? She said, well, can't you see I'm wearing like blue or something? Did you see the man that walked past here? He was wearing a white robe. That was a big Jesus. That was a big Jesus. And then I just, I just, I just, I bowed my head and I was praying. I was just in the presence of the Lord. And I heard the Spirit of the Lord. He came to me and said, said, I'm ready. Let's go. Let's go for a walk.

33:06 And I said, oh my god, I did not know he was our walk. I thought it was my walk. That literally, it shifted me on a level that is unprecedented. I just saw his presence and his glory walk through the room. Wow. Wow. Apostle Bible, David, it's great to have you here. And I'm going to ask you to pray right now for the people that are watching this, that they would have encounters with the Holy Spirit, encounters with Jesus like you were just describing. Because those things have marked your life. And it has changed your life dramatically as your relationship with him has deepened.

33:48 And so I'm just going to ask you to, to release a prayer over our viewing audience right now. Well, praise the Lord. I want to thank God for this opportunity. And I thank God for all of those who are watching and are reading this testimony. Now, the Lord want me to tell you to start to hunger for His presence. Begin to have a desire for God's presence. The anointing of God is not far-fetched. All that matters is that you hunger for it. David cried to God in Psalm 42 verse one, as the dead longs our pants for the water, so my soul longs after you. And almost feel as though the move of the spirit of God and tangible manifestation of the power and presence of God has become so far-fetched in our modern culture.

34:37 And it's just because nobody is staring themselves up. Nobody is going beyond the synthetic superficiality of all the aesthetic things that we have caged ourselves around. If you would turn down the phone just a little bit and cry to God in the place of prayer, the Lord want to talk to you. If you get off the social media just a little bit, if you get off Instagram just a little bit, if we stop worrying about the things that we have no power to control, things about our lives, our marriages, our relationships, our finances, if we would demonstrate real faith and say, God, I can handle this, I give it to you. Just make me in the place of your presence.

35:20 As I seek your face, you're gonna see the glory of God. So this is my heart desire today that you will seek the Lord beyond this prayer and let the Holy Spirit use this prayers, this encounter to ignite fire in your spirit and to birth in you, along in for God's presence that will compel you to disdain mediocrity, to embrace the place of consecration and place of seeking for the glory of God. Spirit of God, I thank you. I thank you a thousand times for a thousand people who are connected to us and listening.

36:01 Lord, these are distinct individuals, men and women of God, in that you have a unique calling for their lives. Lord, a lot of these people have carried boardings and many have carried pain. Many have been at a breaking point, concerning life circumstances. Many have carried sickness, disease, mental health issues. Many have protocol children who have run from home and they don't even know where they are. They may not have even heard from them in months or even years. Many God may have even had church hurt, broken and disappointed by the people they served and loved and trusted. But in the midst of all of this, we recognize that your will for our lives is constant.

36:47 And that's what I'm asking you to do, God that you will break down the power of darkness, break down the spirit of restraint and everything and anything that try to hold any of these God's people bound. I ask God's anointing to radically break it off and set you free. Bring you to wholeness, bring you to healing, bring you to deliverance, bring you to elevation, bring you out of poverty, bring you out of death, bring you out of cancer, break the power of disease. Heal your body, restore your soul, rejuvenate you, anointing, revive you, anointing and bring you into a God alignment.

37:34 Receive your breakthrough right now. Walk upon your heart places, do the impossible, overcome adversity, become unstoppable. In Jesus' name I speak against addiction, depression, darkness. I speak against every unexplainable, mysterious manifestation of witchcraft, the power of sorcery, divination, ancestral cusses, generational negative behavior patterns. I destroy it off of your life. And I ask that in the next three days, in the next seven days and some of you within 14 and maximum 30 days you're gonna have a real turnaround story in the name of the Lord Jesus.

38:18 And you know what? We're gonna see each other in heaven. God bless you. Amen, amen. Apostle Bible, David, thank you so much for that prayer. And I just wanna encourage everybody that's watching that if you are connecting with that prayer that he gave, that word that he gave, I want you to write in the comments that you agree with that, amen. And then whenever you see the fulfillment of that, write in the comments again and say, I saw that God fulfilled that and this is how. We want to use that to encourage people and encourage them to share the goodness of the Lord. And that is so important to do because it's one thing to receive a miracle. It's another thing to go on and testify that because that is gonna spread.

39:01 It's gonna help people understand and have faith because faith comes from hearing and hearing the word of God. And testimonies are a part of that. The word of God is the word of God, but testimony is very important. It does build your faith as well. Apostle Bible, David, thank you so much for being here on Charisma News to share about your story, the ministry that God has called you to and this amazing conference. Go to bibledavids.org, bibledavids.org slash dmd, information for that will be in the description as well. God bless you, thank you very much. Thank you so much. It's so wonderful to be here. I've enjoyed every beat of the moment.

39:43 I look forward to being back.
