Sid: My guests are red hot for the Messiah, how could they help but be red hot for the Messiah. Nic and Rachael Billman they are worship leaders with someone I’ve interviewed previously that travels all over the world and has the greatest most outrageous miracles happen. His name is Randy Clark. And I have found that one of the major, major keys for an outbreak of miracles in healing is an atmosphere that is created through worshiping God. And if you think about the Benny Hinn ministry what is the key that releases miracles in his ministry, it is that worship. And so my guest Nic and Rachael Billman, their in a level of worship that just breaks through into intimacy with God. But some of the things that they’re telling me it’s almost outrages. Nic, tell me about the time you heard the piano.
Nic: Yeah, I was leading worship, actually just worshipping by myself in a room in our church late at night around midnight; I was just awake and decided to go over there. We lived real close to the church and I was spending time in worship with my guitar and as I’m standing there worshipping in our youth room at the time I hear this piano playing. And honestly it freaked me out, so I went out into the hallway to look for where the sound was coming from and I walked around the whole church and there was nobody there playing piano, but as I continued to worship as I continued to sing I continued to hear this piano playing along with me in perfect key right in line with what I was playing. And from that I wrote this song “Join the Angels because it just kind of brought an awareness to me that you know the Bible says that there’s worship twenty-four seven in heaven and so when we worship on earth we are synchronizing heaven and earth and were just pressing into what’s already been done we’re joining in that worship so it was powerful.
Sid: I can just image, what did you think initially when you heard that music? Did you think someone was in the church late at night?
Nic: Yeah, but I also knew that there’s no piano close to where I was and so at first I thought maybe somebody was in the sanctuary playing the piano and had it turned up but why would they be in there that time of night? And so I did have a feeling, a feeling of this is holy ground almost where it was like there’s something going on here. But the curiosity in me still went to check but then at the same time as I continued to worship and heard that it just brought in this awesome atmosphere of heaven where it was just way bigger than me and the guitar in that room.
Sid: Rachael it gets even more outrageous. Tell me about when you were listening to a home recording of Hallelujah, what happened?
Rachael: Yes, Nic and I have a worship room in our house and we kind of just consecrated that room, as just being a time that we can spend with the Lord and spend in prayer. And we have just a little home recorder type thing that you can record a couple tracks on it and really it’s not for anything like for great duplication but it’s great for trying to capture intimacy with the Lord at the time. But we were recording just worshipping in the room and when all we’re singing was just hallelujah and just exalting His Name and having that spontaneous time with the Lord. We recorded it, printed it out on a CD just for our own listening and we were on our way out to minister at a church and were just listening to everything we had recorded and our children were sitting in the back seat and said, “Mommy who is that other man singing with you and Daddy?” I said, “What do you mean?” And so we rewound it back and while we were singing just this song of adoration and Nic begins to speak in tongues and just sing in tongues while we were singing. And then behind both of our voices you can hear almost a chanting behind us and we were driving while we were listening to this and immediately the tears just start flowing and we’re just in awe of what the Lord was doing. And knew from the position of where it was coming from in the room that it was behind both of us when we were singing. And so we knew immediately that it was an angel in the music and we had never had that happen and caught on a recording before. And so we had to pull over the car and we’re just in tears as we were just thanking the Lord for the opportunity to see heaven come to earth.
Sid: You know it is interesting that the particular song that you were able to cap…you’ve heard and others have heard angels singing in your music previously but no on a recording like this and it’s so great that you have this but. When I hear that song you know who I think of? Kathryn Kuhlman, that was one of her songs and she had as far as I’m concerned the top miracles ministry I’ve ever seen in my life. And I image that some of those angels that you picked up on that little home recording might have been in her ministry too. Tell me about what we are going to listen to right now and we are going to do just a little snippet but on your CD the least of these that we are making available this week we’ll have a longer version of it. What are we about ready to hear?
Nic: What you’ll hear is Rachael and I worshiping in our room, the guitar and our voices singing and “Alleluia” and then around thirty seconds you are going to hear and angel’s voice that sounds like “Ho, Ho, Ho in the background behind our voices.
Radio excerpt: “Alleluia.”
Sid: Well that happened so quickly that some of you may have still missed it… Nic tell me about the song on the CD that you sing that almost every time you minister “Fall in Love with Me,” I love it.
Nic: Yeah, it’s a song that our friend wrote originally as a part of another song and we just took the chorus and we sing it all the time because we find that as you’re worshiping when you come against walls and or you feel like there is something in the atmosphere that is keeping the congregation or the group or just you held back that when you begin to sing love songs to the Lord and declare your love the Lord and just sing your heart in adoration that it just breaks that off and allows the love of the Father to flow into the room. And so this is one of those songs in the CD that we just often go into and it just fits perfectly to just bring a simple chorus that people can sing out without needing a screen or a hymnal or anything like that they can just sing from their hearts.
Sid: And when people listen to your CD that was recorded live the feedback is they experience the presence of God, they feel God’s love flowing through them like they never have before. They hear the sound of the Wind of the Spirit and supernatural instruments and many are healed. Let’s hear a little bit, by the way this CD the least of these…
