SID: Why do you have such a gift, Randy, for impartation? That is, praying the same things that are going on with you will go on with other people. Uh – I mean is there – why you?
RANDY: I don’t know. I –
SID: [CHUCKLES]
RANDY: all I know, Sid, is that I don’t deserve it; there’s a lot more people that’s more holy than me, more faith than me. All I know is when I was a pastor of a small little church – a Baptist church – met John Wimber. He heard the audible voice of God tell him, the first two times we – he met me, that God was going to send me one day around the world to lay hands on pastors, and leaders, and people, to be stirred up and activated in the gifts of the Spirit, or be filled with the Spirit. And so 10 years later, when Toronto happened, John Wimber called me and said, “This is what God showed me about you 10 years ago; it starts now.” So in one sense, I’ve just – you know, God chose me. A-and sometimes “[He chooses] the foolish … and … weak things” to “confound the wise; and … the strong.” [CHUCKLES] Uh, so I really don’t know. I’m just glad uh that He did; I’m glad it happens. Uh, and –
SID: I – I-I’ve got a list of a half-a-dozen people that have worldwide ministries, uh, that you have prayed prayers of impartation over; even some you prophesied over. But the truth of the matter is, when I have you pray in a moment, if the people are receptive, it’d be the same as you laying hands on them, and you’ve had that happen to people. Uh, w-would you teach for about 2-minutes on impartation and then pray?
RANDY: Yes uh, I will. But let me just say one other thing before I do that uh Sid. You mentioned your curriculum stuff that you’re – you’re selling.
SID: Yes.
RANDY: One of them has a – the same book also has “word of knowledge”. Let me say this: Every time I’ve taught on word of knowledge – every time without fail since 1984 when uh the – the one week after I learned about it – people were activated in the gift of word of knowledge. I know, without a shadow of a doubt, people who read that part, that chapter about word of knowledge; they will start having words of knowledge. Now, about impartation: Uh, it’s in the Bible; and Paul says in Romans, “[I wanted to come to] you, that I may [lay my hands upon you to] impart some spiritual gift to you ….” Uh, he talks to Timothy, “[S]tir up the gift [you see with] the laying on of My hands.” Uh in – in 2 Timothy 1:6. In 1 Timothy 4:14, he says, “Do not neglect the … gift within you, … through prophetic [message] … of … the presbytery.” Uh, when they lay their hands upon you. Uh, so Paul himself received uh the filling of the spirit, through the laying on of hands of Ananias.
