A KN95 mask is a common, short-name designation for a Kn95 filtering mask, which is an important particulate-filtering face mask that meets the Chinese national standard for protecting the public's health from respiratory irritants. A Kn95 mask is made to protect against particulates that are larger than 0.3 micrometers. The term "particulate" refers to dust and other irritants that are breathed in. Kn95 filters are tested for size and power to eliminate or reduce the risk of causing adverse health reactions. For example, a Kn95 particulate filter might include a high-tech paper filter made of polyvinyl chloride, or some other technology that is specific to the Kn95 mask.
Kn95 respirators are made from a fabric that allows the wearer to breathe comfortably and also holds the wearer snug against his or her face, preventing the large inhaled breathed particles from penetrating the skin. Often, a Kn95 mask is prescribed to those with a tendency toward allergic reactions, such as asthma or emphysema, or to persons that are exposed to small particles while at work, such as gardeners or farmworkers. Kn95 respirators vary in price based on the specifications of the individual respirator and the wearer's needs. There are many different brands and types of Kn95 masks, all designed for a particular need.
Know how to wear these masks
A disposable Kn95 mask may be worn as a single unit or worn over a facemask. A face shield can be used in tandem with a disposable mask. A full-face mask often called a full face mask, is worn on only one side of the head. A nose clip is worn to attach the mask to the face shield. This type of mask may provide more protection than a traditional mask worn over only one side.
A face shield may be worn in conjunction with or as a replacement for a traditional Kn95 mask. The primary difference between a regular mask and a face shield is the additional protection provided by the nose clip. During a positive pressure check, a nurse or other healthcare professional will place the positive pressure checker tape along with the nose, over the lips, around the chin, in the cheek, and under the nose.
When the patient exhales, the Kn95 mask will expand to allow more air into the lungs. When the patient takes a breath, the mask will contract to accommodate the increased amount of air. The Kn95 mask is used during a specific disease control procedure and not for any other disease control purpose. Masks may be prescribed by the patient's doctor or by the disease control center.
A disposable Kn95 mask may be worn daily as needed for the particular disease and is disposable. Disposable masks are made of special neoprene materials that are comfortable to wear. These may be worn over just one eye or over both eyes, depending on the severity of the disease. Disposable masks usually have an area where the patient can easily wash away the disposable neoprene using water. Once these disposable masks are removed, sterilized, and stored in a stock container, they can be returned to service for use by another patient. A disposable Kn95 respirator usually has a sealed mouthpiece that can be removed for washing or other personal hygiene purposes. One can buy these masks from online brands like accumed.com.

A kn95 mask is an often-used, short-style name for a KN95 filter respirator, that meets the standards of FDA China and EUA China. It is one of the two protective equipment systems widely used in China and all over the world. The other protective equipment system is the personal protective equipment (PPE) that most of the individuals wear during the course of their employment. For the KN95 to meet FDA China standards, it must cover all of the head and torso regions of the body. Also, it must cover the neck, jaw, and ears.
The KN95 has several components that make it different from other types of respirators. First, it is crucial to wear all KN95s during work activity. Second, they have a sealed air system that prevents contaminated dust particles from entering the breathing system. Third, all KN95s are pressure-sensitive, meaning that they respond to changes in ambient pressure.
The KN95 is very similar to the full-face mask that various individuals wear who suffer from dust allergies. It has similar features such as pressure-sensitive valve controls and a high lift and extends feature for the chinstrap. Although it has the pressure-sensitive valve controls of a full face mask, it does not have the nose plug of a dust mask. However, a nasal strip instead of the chinstrap can prove to be pressure sensitive for the user. This makes it easier to breathe through the nose rather than trying to blow through the mouth.
Like all other KN95 respiratory protective equipment, the KN95 mask must cover the entire head, including the eyes, to reduce the chances of a serious allergy or attack happening while on the job. Because of this, some masks will have a chin-up bar attached to them. This is useful in keeping the mask from getting knocked off, but it is not a requirement for all masks.
Â
Things to consider before buying a KN95 mask online.
Â
If you’re willing to purchase a KN95 mask online then various online stores provide a KN95 mask but with Accumed it is easier to pick a KN95 mask for certain needs because we provide every variety of respirators at the best price. Here are a few aspects to consider while purchasing a mask replacement.
When purchasing a mask replacement, it is important to ensure that it fits properly. If it is loose, it may restrict airflow and increase the pressure exerted on the airway. The KN95 replacement mask must also have a good seal. Some models have a lip along the edge, while others have a hook and loop strap system to secure the mask to the face.
Respirators are capable to protect the head from harmful particles and gases. Although the main purpose of respirators is to protect their users at work, they are also needed at home. When purchasing a new or used respirator, it is important to ensure that it is certified by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). There are many different types of respirators available to protect the worker; therefore, one must consult their doctor or physician to determine which respirators will be the safest to wear.

SID: My guest can supernaturally see the potential of people. She even knows their future. She now has revelation on how you can reverse your wrong directions so you can fulfill your destiny.his conversation is from sid roth's show Its supernatural.
Is there a supernatural dimension, a world beyond the one we know? Is there life after death? Do angels exist? Can our dreams contain messages from Heaven? Can we tap into ancient secrets of the supernatural? Are healing miracles real? Sid Roth has spent over 35 years researching the strange world of the supernatural. Join Sid for this edition of It’s Supernatural.
SID: Hello, Sid Roth here. Welcome to my world where it's naturally supernatural. I mean, that's natural. That's the air that I breathe. And I've been looking forward to interviewing my guest, Cindy Trimm, and I'm going to tell you why. Cindy was raised in such poverty in Bermuda. And something supernatural pulled her up to become a senator from Bermuda. Even Ebony Magazine had the Power 100. I mean, people like Michael Jordan, President Barak Obama - pretty good company. Cindy Trimm was in that list. Cindy, tell me how bad it was in your early upbringing, as far as poverty.
CINDY: It was pretty bad. We grew up, it was seven children, single-parent home. My father left my mother when I was two years old, with seven kids.
SID: Seven kids!
CINDY: Seven. And I was number six or seven. It was interesting. So there's a paradigm that goes with that, a poverty paradigm. So I always say that had it not been for God to change that paradigm and to shift that, I probably would not be sitting here today, Sid. But growing up, when you live in that environment it becomes natural to you. It's just normal because you don't know anything else. And I didn't know that there was something else to want until God came into my life and showed it to me.
SID: Now you had an amazing encounter with God when you were just a teenager, what, about 17. Tell me about that.
CINDY: I gave my heart to the Lord. That's number one.
SID: Of course.
CINDY: Then number two; I had an encounter where God actually called me into ministry, and that was surprising, too. I had grown up in church, but I didn't know that I should be saved. I didn't know anything about establishing a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, and that all changed my life.
SID: Now what happened as God began to give you revelation that allowed you to come from that humble upbringing to a best selling author today?
CINDY: Learning the power of the spoken word. A lot of us are waiting for miracles, not knowing that the miracle is in our mouths. A lot of things that we are repeating continuously is affecting our future. I didn't know that if I didn't want to see to my future I should not be speaking about it today. A lot of time even when we pray, we're exacerbating situations because we keep praying what we don't want instead of praying what we want. In the Book of Romans, Chapter 4, Verse 17, talks about God calling those things that be not as though they were. So there is another realm where I believe God has already prepared everything that we need, but is locked up in the realm of the spirit, and we have to call it to us. And when we begin to speak, when we begin to speak into our future and speak into our lives, things literally start happening. And it started when I read Genesis, Chapter 1. God said, "Let there be light and there was light." Let simply means that there were prohibiting forces preventing something from happening and it was something that suppressed the light. And so my prosperity, my potential was suppressed. It was suppressed by a culture, controlled by spirit beings and I believe that today.
SID: Now you understand the spirit world.
CINDY: I do.
SID: Because as a young child, Cindy had an encounter. I have to believe, Cindy, because of that encounter, you have an understanding of the invisible world like very few have. Tell me about that.
CINDY: I had two of them. I was laying in my bed one night and it was almost like the heavens opened up. And I literally saw angels descending and ascending, similar to Jacob. I literally saw that and I heard the most incredible sounds of music, and I was not afraid. That's when I knew that there had to be a spirit realm. Then I had a reoccurring dream about my future being a deliverer, and all of these combined with reading the scriptures and then having an encounter with God. I remember the time when I was preparing, showering, and I had a vision, and it was an open vision. And I was standing on stage and a costume of Katherine Kuhlman fell on me. I was in front of thousands and thousands, and thousands of people, and God was blessing these people, literally blessing these people. And I had a similar occurrence one day when I was on stage, and I stood up to minister the Word of God. It was thousands of people there and I literally saw the power of God without human intervention, without anyone laying hands. I saw the power of God touch all of those thousands and thousands of people. So I'm beginning to see that vision coming to pass.
SID: That's what I said to you before we went on the air that I believe this is going to happen. And at this point, I mean, can you imagine as she walks by, she's just walking by speaking, and you'll find out more about this, God's Word, literally the atmosphere changes when she speaks
God's Word. People can't stand. Why can't they stand? If you read about the temple when the priests went in the temple and the Glory of God was so strong. They had no choice. They could not stand because the Glory of God, the Hebrew word is ‘kavod’; it's ‘a heaviness.’ Well if heaviness comes on you, you're not going to stand. Cindy, did you just, through studying the Bible, come to this understanding or did someone teach you that?
CINDY: I studied the Bible and God opened the Word up to me. And I saw it; literally saw it in the Word. And I just believed the Word of God. I tell you, Sid, today, people everywhere are looking for solutions. And very few people believe that the Word of God is the solution. But now it is the only solution that we have, because we've tried every single thing.
SID: What happened with your family when you saw it?
CINDY: Oh my goodness. I started speaking. I started commanding. I found out that I literally can command things to come to pass just from using the Word of God. And growing up in poverty, I mean, there's no money around. I wasn't educated. There was no one that had a degree in my family. And I read in the Scripture that you can decree a thing and it shall be established, and I took the Word literally. I got saved. I was 17 years old. And I went into my house. I was the only one saved then. And we were talking about how we are going to pay this bill, how we were going to pay that bill. I said to my family, listen, in the Word of God it says we can decree a thing. And I remember standing in my living room decreeing and declaring, we are going to be out of poverty. This is the last time we're going to be living in this house, living in this state. Six months later we went from a rat-infested house that leaked. When it rained, it poured in my house, to living in a beach estate.
SID: Two questions. What happened to your family and what is your education?
CINDY: PhD.
SID: You have a doctorate.
CINDY: One by one my family got saved, one by one. I remember leading my mother to the Lord. We were sitting on her bed and I asked her did she want to saved? And she said yes. I thought it was going to be more difficult than that. So I ran out to the kitchen and I said, "God, she said yes, she wants to be saved." He said, "Go in and get her saved." So I went back and I said, "Do you want to be saved?" She said, “Yes.†I went back in the kitchen, because I couldn't believe it. I thought it would be hard. And then I led my mother to the Lord and began to pray. Every last one of my family members are saved today and they're believers.
SID: And you're saying that's a wonderful transformation for Cindy. She must be an exceptional person. No. She has learned our supernatural God is exceptional and He is not a respecter of persons. And when you get to understand her revelation, literally the atmosphere changes. I mean, she's got a PhD. There's no way she should have been in the Power 100 of Ebony Magazine with such company as I mentioned to you.
CINDY: Absolutely.
SID: Except God. And I promise you, I tell you, I command you to believe that God loves you as much as He loves me. I command you to believe that God loves you as much as He loves Cindy. We're going to get this revelation when I come back. Don't go away.

We now return to It’s Supernatural.
SID: Hello, Sid Roth here with Cindy Trimm. And I am amazed, absolutely amazed at the revelation that Cindy has. Just one of these revelations about light; it comes from, as you explain, the Book of Genesis when God said, "Let there be light." What I want to know is how has it affected you personally with this revelation?
CINDY: What you don't know will hurt you. A lot of people say, what you don't know won't hurt you. But it does. Light is the presence of God. It's the presence of information. It's the presence of revelation. And a lot of times we're in darkness. Like, I was in darkness. I thought that my life would have to stay this way, even though I was working and looking for ways of finding a solution to my personal problems. I found out it was because I was in darkness. And when you say, "let there be light", you give God permission to expose what He has already there for you. Sometimes it's right in front of you, but you cannot see it.
SID: So the light gives you the revelation.
CINDY: The light gives you revelation. I'll give you an example. I was in London a couple of weeks ago. I eat grapefruit just about every single day. So this day I decided I'm not going to eat grapefruit in my room. I'm going to go downstairs and get grapefruit. I'm looking all over the buffet for grapefruit. I'm standing there. And as soon as I say, "Excuse me, could you tell me where the grapefruit is," all of a sudden when I spoke that word "grapefruit" I looked down. The grapefruit had been there all the time, but I couldn't see it. And a lot of times we're blinded to things that God is trying to show us. And when you're able to say, "Let there be light." God can open up your eyes so that you can see the path that He's prepared for you, so that you can see the solution to your problems. And sometimes we're blinded by fear. We're blinded by doubt. We're blinded by our culture. We're blinded by people's expectations. We're blinded by sorrow. And God wants to shed light on our situation. We are not victims of circumstances.
SID: Okay. Someone gets sick. You, you've been sick several times.
CINDY: Yes, several times.
SID: Tell me how this worked.
CINDY: It was a self-fulfilled prophecy. I did not know the power of the spoken word. When I was young, I thought 40 was old. And I said, ‘I don't want to be old.’ So when I get to 40 I think I will have accomplished everything I wanted to do.
SID: When I was young I thought 70 was old.
CINDY: I'm telling you.
SID: I'm about ready to embark on my destiny right now.
CINDY: We're just beginning.
SID: So stop feeling sorry that the world has passed you by. I'm 70 and I'm as excited as a 20 year old over what God is ready to do.
CINDY: Look at Abraham. He was a hundred years old.
SID: Yeah, but I don't want any more children.
CINDY: God said to him, "You are going to be the father of many nations." And so Abraham couldn't look at the fact that he did not have the necessary plumbing to produce that. What I'm saying is we have to give God a chance. God can do for you in one day what you can never do for yourself in a lifetime.
SID: Okay. Give me an example of you being physically healed.
CINDY: Okay, me being physically healed. When I was young I said I wanted to be, you know, not dead. I wasn't trying to commit suicide or anything. I thought I would be old at 40. But when I turned 36, I started having these symptoms of illness. So I was diagnosed with a hiatal hernia. I couldn't digest food and on and on. But when I went to the doctor he said, "Look, Cindy, we might have to operate." And I went back home and the Holy Spirit said to me, "Cindy, you have spoken this over your life and this is self-fulfilled prophecy. Reverse it." And I went and I repented for the words that I spoke, and I asked God to reverse the words. And the next morning I woke up, I didn't have the pain. I used to have pain every night, excruciating pain. And I never had to have an operation and I've never had indigestion ever since, never had it. It was a self-fulfilled prophecy. And a lot of people don't understand that many things that they're saying is evil spirits and it's demonic spirits. It's actually the spirit realm responding to commands that they have given. Even if it's said in a jest, like, "you make me sick". When people say, "you make me sick" they are prophesying over their lives sicknesses. I'll give you an example. One man said, "I'd give an arm and a leg to see my daughter healed." And guess what happened? Years and years went by. There was no cure. He has this accident and he lost his arm, he lost his leg. Six months later, they found a cure for his daughter. There is a direct correlation between the things that we are saying out of our mouths and the things that occur in our lives.
SID: Tell me about your friend.
CINDY: Very negative. Would come to me with a lot of negativity. And I said, "Look, have you commanded your morning? You have to change your words, because if you change your words, you can change the reality in your world." And words of presence, it has power, it has prophetic implication, no geographical limitation, none whatsoever. And I instructed her, change your words. And six months later when I met her, her life had changed. Her finances had changed and she was praising God because that one little principle about speaking positive over your life actually changed her life.
SID: How about the person that got the $2 million business.
CINDY: I know. That's big.
SID: I want you to tell me big. I want you to go for the gold.
CINDY: Let me go for it then. In my teaching, life and death is in the power of the tongue. It's not so much about people cursing you. It's about you cursing yourself. It's not much you waiting for someone to pronounce a blessing on you. You could bless yourself. And so as I begin to write these declarations out, one lady said she didn't have the book, but she remembered me being on television. And the gang came to her house because her two sons decided they no longer wanted to be gang-banging. What she said was, when they knocked on the door they said, "Where are your sons? We're gonna kill them. And if you don't give us your sons we're gonna kill you." And she said all she could think about was her sons and her granddaughter in the house. Well she began to make these declarations and she said, "I couldn't remember all the declarations. So I said, 'God, whatever those declarations was that was in that book, I release it in the name of Jesus.'" And then the guy said, "This woman is crazy." Left the house and never came back to kill her sons. The power of the spoken words. This is happening with babies. There's a woman that played a CD...
SID: I tell you what. Hold that thought. I'm going to ask Cindy, in the next segment, to pray the way she normally does. I'm going to tell you, the atmosphere in your home is going to change. And when the atmosphere is going to change, you're going to have the Light of God come on, and you're going to have revelation on decisions on why you're sick, revelations for your family. You want that. I want that. Don't go away. We'll get it.

We now return to It’s Supernatural.
SID: Hello, Sid Roth here with Cindy Trimm. Cindy, I love your 1 to 365 ratio. Explain that.
CINDY: Yes. We show a visual that we're going through the wilderness. The tribes, the 12 representatives from the tribes were sent in to just explore the land and come back with a report. Ten of them came back and spoke a negative report, which affected the ear gate and affected the mindset of the people until they started complaining. And two of them said, "We are well able. God said that we can have this. We are well able." Well in their own mind, this is what you call a negative paradigm; they felt that they were the grasshoppers. So they began to complain. And so God said, "For every day that you complain, I'm going to take you into the wilderness for a year." So that's a 1 to 365 ratio. This is why we have to be careful in what we are speaking, because for every negative word that we speak, we can potentially take our lives into 365 days or a year's worth of bondage. So we need to be careful what we say from our mouth.
SID: I don't know about you. I'm thinking I may just want to put a band-aid over my mouth, and only speak God's Word. What about you?
CINDY: That's right. And if you can't remember the word, remember the principle of the word. And we have enough promises. A lot of times when people pray, or when people want something to say, to speak over their lives, they're saying, "I don't know what to say." But the Word of God is full of promises. All the promises are in the ‘yea and amen.’
SID: I want you to see what's going to happen in your atmosphere as Cindy begins to pray God's promises. You can do this. Anyone can do what Cindy is about ready to do. That's what I want you to understand. But wait until you see what's going to happen. Cindy, would you pray?
CINDY: This is from Deuteronomy 28:1-14. And I'm going to rephrase it. I am blessed in the city. I am blessed in the field. I am blessed in my down setting, blessed in my uprising. I'm blessed socially, physically, mentally, psychologically. I am blessed relationally, interpersonally. I am blessed. I am blessed physiologically. I am blessed. Every part of my life is blessed. I speak into my day and I download prosperity into my day, success into my day. I speak over those that I love. I speak prosperity and success. I speak to my government that they will come into Divine alignment that they will lead morally and ethically. I speak into my business. I speak that my business is successful, that we are increasing, that there is no decrease. I speak into my home that my home is a haven of peace. I speak into my loved ones. I speak that their lives is coming back into alignment. I decree and declare that wealth and riches are in our house. I speak into my mind peace. I speak into my heart courage. I speak into my feet that there are paths that I can walk on so that I can overcome every obstacle. I am the head and not the tail. I am first and not last. I am above and not beneath. I am loved by God. I am chosen by God. I am protected by God. Today shall come into direct alignment with the plans and purposes of God. Every good and every perfect gift comes from God. Today is my gift. Therefore, it will end perfect and it will end good in Jesus' name.
SID: Next week on It’s Supernatural. My guest has uncovered an insidious plot against our children and our grandchildren. Latest statistics show only 4 percent of this next generation will be involved in evangelical Christianity.

Sid: My guest by way of telephone is Dr. Michael Brown President of Fire School Ministry in Pensacola, Florida and New York City, and in the fall the Pensacola School will move to Charlotte, North Carolina. I’m interviewing him this week on his book that is sure to stir up a lot of controversy and I believe that he didn’t write it for that sake he wrote it because this is what the Spirit of God is speaking to many people, but not many people are willing to be up front with this because when you’re up front sometimes you’re standing alone. The title of the book is “Revolution in the Church†subtitle “Challenging the Religious System with a Call for Radical Change.†What do you mean by radical change do you mean scrap what we have and start over?
Michael: I mean radical in two ways radical meaning large scale wholesale dramatic conflict and radical meaning back to the roots biblical. And what we’re doing if we’re following some map somewhere and the map doesn’t have any of the latest roads and it got us down the wrong way because the map is 30 years outdated well the things you do is to get yourself a new map and then if your “Oops I made some wrong turns I’m 50 miles out of the way.†You don’t keep going the wrong way you make a U-turn you go back and get things fixed. I’m not talking about reinventing the wheel, I’m not talking about scraping everything that’s gone before, I’m saying let’s be honest we’ve got some blind spots here. We’ve got some very serious lax there’s a reason why we’ve got 24 hour gospel television, 24 hour gospel radio, best selling Christian books, mega churches all around the country, well known Christian leaders in every facet of society and yet America continues to have a steady moral decline. Things that are acceptable in the homes of believers today would have been absolute abominations in the homes of our unsaved grandparents 2 generations ago, something is fundamentally wrong not just with our message but with our understanding of what church is and what it means and what it means to be a follower of Jesus.
Sid:And your book by the way explains things that unfortunately too few Christians understand. For instance, let’s talk a little bit about chapter 3 and the next few chapters, “The Church is Not a Building and the Family is not a House†explain that.
Michael: Well I use those terms “The Family is not a House†to try to draw people with the wrong terminology there. If I said “I want you to meet my family†and then I come and show you my house, I show you the yard and show you the…
Sid:I want to meet your family not your building.
Michael:Right because families are moms and dads, and sons and daughters, and brothers and sisters. Well… “Oh Sid we’ve got a beautiful new church, oh Sid we moved into the area so that we could be near the church, oh I go to church regularly.†See if the church is a building then it’s something I go to…
Sid:How about this the church is the house of God.
Michael:Well if I look at a physical building somehow it’s the house of God. See here’s the problem when Tyndale translated the Bible into English 500 years ago and he translated the New Testament into English and he came to the word ekklesia in Greek he properly translated it congregation. Jesus said “I’ll build my congregation. Jesus died for glorious congregation without spot and wrinkle.†What happened is the King James translated it’s one of the rules was use the all ecclesiastical words like church instead of congregation. And so now you have this misnomer that church can actually refer to a physical building as well. And as long as we have that mentality “I go to church.†As opposed “I am part of the church 24-7, we are the body, we are the congregation.†What happens is the major focus is going to be on a physical building and that we should meet together we should have meetings where we all come together as often as we can in small groups in homes and private fellowships and large corporate meetings I’m all for that I see it as the New Testament pattern. But we might say “We have a beautiful church†meaning we have a lovely building and it’s filled with dead men’s bones on the inside and society the world is not changed by someone going to church. We somehow think we get all dressed up or we come casual whatever the look is. We go to some building we sing a few songs, we collect an offering we preach a message we hear a message we go home we think that’s going to threaten the devil. That doesn’t threaten the devil in fact if we’re happy he’s happy because we’re now pacified with our religious fix. But if we see ourselves instead of the emphasis going to a meeting we see that we part of a revolutionary world changing movement that was birthed into this world by the Son of God. And we have a mission to go and change the world everything changes. And…
Sid:But in America and as you so well point out in your book it’s the whole professional and audience mentality versus everyman a worker.
Michael:You see here’s where we miss it so greatly the civil rights movement had a great impact on America and brought about a lot of positive change because people did not merely go to a civil rights meeting they became part of a movement and they all went out and got involved. Or if you look at something that’s brought negative change for America there’s more freedom right now in your average secular high school for a homosexual to freely speak. A homosexual teacher about his or her views on homosexuality and things like that than there is for an evangelical believer to talk about God and the scriptures. How is it that there is more freedom of speech for homosexuals than for Christians true believers in our schools? The answers very simple Homosexuals who we pray for and want to see saved and made whole and made right by God the homosexuals do not go to a gay meeting one hour a week, they are not gay one hour a week they lead a gay lifestyle. And because of that even though they are a tiny percent of the society they have great impact. Here in America half of American’s attend church services at least once a month. A third go to a religious services once a week and yet we’re not changing America, America is changing us. Why? Because we have this mentality that the church is a building that I go to and I put my money into it and if we can build a nice enough building then somehow we’re doing something for God or we’ve accomplished something we’ve arrived. And then in that setting I go and I’m now part let’s say I’m not in leadership I’m now part of the audience. I’ve heard preachers say this from the pulpit many times well meaning “All of you out there in the audience.†Well if there’s the audience then the one preaching the leader that’s the performer. So I perform I put on a good show, you go there you like the show you give some money you know and you got it…well I like the show better over there because they let you out early yeah, but the childcare over here’s better and yeah but there’s no parking and we’re kind of like we’re choosing which restaurant connoisseur Christians in a gourmet gospel. And we wonder why things are not being changed when the fact is audiences don’t change the world, audiences don’t start revolutions, audiences are not a threat to the devil. About the best you can get from an audience is active audience participation. God puts leaders in the body and leaders have important roles but there’s no clergy, laity distinction.
Sid:Well where did that come from?
Michael:Well that’s just a latter tradition and in this case Gentile tradition that came in, Jewish tradition went one way Gentile tradition went another way both in many ways departed from scripture.
Sid:So what was the what was the scriptural tradition?
Michael:The scripture tradition is that every believer is a priest. See the reformation addressed this but then it really didn’t live it out because he he’s still going to a building and the people walk up like 10 – 20 feet to this high lofty pulpit and have special titles and have these long robes. Well hang on, if they’re wearing robes how come everybody’s not wearing robes if we’re all priests where nobody should be wearing them. In other words we all have equal access to God, we are all equally part of the body we are all equally…
Sid:Yes but they have time to study and keep themselves sanctified where were working, we’re parents, we’re husbands or wives, we’re trying to get enough money so that we can retire. We don’t have time for things like this Mike it’s a busy life.
Michael:Well see there are two sides to this. First leaders that are called to the ministry of the word ought to spend a lot of time in prayer and in the word so that they can equip God’s people with the time they’ve had with God to help them teach and instruct so that God’s people can now go out and do God’s work. It’s not the role of the pastor…
Sid:Can’t I just give money to someone and then I don’t have to do God’s work?
Michael:Well not according to the scripture (Laughing) you see everyone is called to be a disciple. See just say “I am a Christian†doesn’t cut it. Saying I am a believer that term occurs 26 times in the New Testament 13 times in Acts we’re called Believers. That’s good but if I tell someone on my job I’m a believer they might say “Oh yeah I am too I call the psychic hotline every day I’m a real believer.†So the word that separates us and it’s a very costly word it’s the word disciple every one of us is called to be a disciple of Jesus. That word…
Sid:I know the disciple of Jesus would ever call something that the scriptures condemn like a psychic hotline but go ahead.
Michael:Well you see we are called disciples in the New Testament that term occurs over 250 times. Over 25 times just in Acts we are called disciples, people should look in the mirror and say “I’m a disciple of Jesus.†What does that mean? I wonder if the mirror would talk back to us and say “Who are you fooling?†See if we’re disciples of Jesus then we have the same radical call that Peter and Matthew and the others did. No not be apostles, no not to write part of the New Testament but we are called in the same way to leave everything and join this radical revolutionary cause. And so much of our America gospel that just says “Well, what’s in it for you, or how you can just have a better life, or Jesus died to make you rich?†It’s not that every line of that is wrong and heretical, but the focus is wrong and heretical.
Sid:What’s the focus?
Michael:The focus is not how to save your life and how to have a better more prosperous life. The focus is how to give your life to go and change the world that’s the revolutionary calling of Jesus, that’s the normal New Testament faith. And what the world calls for fanaticism and much of the church calls extremism God calls normal. We need to get back to the understanding of the church being the family of God sent out into this world to make it an impact. Every believer is a priest and has access to God and that leaders are to be honored and appreciated and respected, but leaders do not stand over the believer between them and God as if they have access to God that believers don’t. Believers lead the way to lead the believers out to war to go out and change the world that is our revolutionary commission.
Sid:Mike we’re out of time.

Sid: Hello. Sid Roth here. Welcome to my world where it’s naturally supernatural. My guest has tapped into a frequency from Heaven that causes demons of depression, demons of fear, demons of worry, demons of anxiety to flee as in terror. Now my guest is John Waller. You’re probably familiar with John because he sang and wrote the lead song for the movie, “Fireproof.†But what you don’t know about John is when he was 12 years of age, he broke up with a girlfriend and it crushed him. And his mother and his grandmother suffered from horrific depression. I mean, your mom was in bed. You have memories of long periods of time she was so disabled by depression.
John: Days at a time she’d be in bed. She was up and down, and that was the normal in our home.
Sid: So he gets a little depressed. He breaks up with a girl and his mother ships him off to the doctor. In 30 minutes or less, the doctor gives him a lifetime diagnosis. He has to take medicines, four or five medicines. What was the diagnosis he gave you in 30 minutes or so?
John: Bipolar disorder based on family history, based on just what I told him as to how I was feeling. Having experienced rejection for the first time from a girl obviously I was feeling a lot of natural things. But based on those feelings and family history he was quick to diagnose me.
Sid: Okay. You have a desire to write songs, worship. You’re married, you’re 32 years of age and a deal, a record deal that was going to be, a man with a big cigar was going to make you a star, a movie star. What was his name, Colonel something or other. But it didn’t quite work out that way and you went into a tailspin. You had been on medicine for most of your life now for this condition that was diagnosed. It was actually a word curse is what occurred, because his mother said, when she saw him depressed, what were her exact words?
John: She said, “He’s got it.†She said, my father heard her in the other room. She said, “He’s got it, I can just tell.â€
Sid: That curse, 20 years of medication. So he doesn’t get the deal. He goes into a tailspin and a couple sent by God comes into his house and prays for him. What happened?
John: Well I had been prayed for before, but not like this. When this couple prayed over me, they anointed me, my head with oil. They said, “We want to pray for your deliverance.†And so I had never even really heard that term before. People had said they wanted to pray for my healing before. But this was a different kind of thing. It was deliverance. When they prayed for me I felt the power of the Holy Spirit come upon me and I felt heat in my body. And when they were done praying I knew something had happened. I knew something had broken. I didn’t even understand what had happened, but I knew something had changed.
Sid: Twenty years of this addiction and something changed. But he continued with the medication. But five months later, funny thing, he ran out of medication and he just didn’t buy any. So what happened, John?
John: Well we had moved to Colorado. You know, my band, after the record deal fell through the band broke up. I didn’t know where I was going to go with my life. But I got an opportunity to move to Colorado and we took it, and we moved to Colorado. That’s where I ran out of medication. And I didn’t tell my wife. I just stopped taking it. I weaned myself. And probably six months later I just all of a sudden realized, you know what, God really did set me free. I really am healed. I really am delivered. And I turned to my wife and I said, “Guess what, I’m delivered.†She was like, what do you mean? I was like, “I’m delivered from depression. I haven’t taken medication in six months.†And she was like, you know!
Sid: I think that isn’t even an exaggeration of what his wife… but listen to this. He had five children. One year later, he had nine children. Do you know what that took? It took crazy faith. And John, I want you to go to the music set because I love this song, because there’s another word for crazy faith. It’s called normal, as defined by the Bible or there’s a Hebrew word I like to use, meshugganah faith. John Waller, “Crazy Faith.â€

Sid: I mean just out of the blue as Don refers to it. What happens when an unexpected cross occurs? I mean the couple’s happy, they’re having their new baby and then a 1 in a million chance occurs. One of the lungs is missing and the heart ends up in that position rather than the normal position; they give him days and the baby will die. The family goes into the audacity of prayer that’s the name of the book that we’re making available and when they prayed and this was your church family Don correct.
Don: That’s right.
Sid: And when they prayed you just had a knowing that this baby was healed and just on his own suddenly they could take him home totally healed, no surgery. What did the doctors say?
Don: When in 48 hours this baby went from the death watch to being home. No surgery, medical science didn’t make him well, God turned his situation around.
Sid: You know people are listening to us and if you’re human something unexpected happens to a love one or to you, it’s called life. What should someone do when they have this unexpected cross Don?

Don: I believe that when you have an unexpected cross in your life and an unexpected cross can be almost anything a financial reversal, bad news from a doctor, the breakup of a marriage, you know almost anything it could be almost anything. But when we face an unexpected cross and all of us have been there I believe that it’s at that moment that we discover what we really believe and who we’re really trusting in. And I think that when we face these unexpected crosses that our first thing that we should do is to run to Father God and take our case to Him and do it in a way that we have confidence that He hears us when we pray.
Sid: I want you to give me an example give me a real life example of either your family or one of your church families and how you did or would pray and I want you to actually pray.
Don: Okay I… just a personal example of an unexpected cross for years I struggled with a heart issue; had atrial fibrillation and I was on a 30 day fast, drinking only water. And was in a hotel room I was speaking at a church and got up to take a shower one morning and you know in a weakened condition as far as physically because it was the 11th day of the fast and when I was taking the shower my heart went out of rhythm so badly that I fell in the shower I was the only one my wife wasn’t with me. And when I fell in the shower I experienced a demon that came in that bathroom and that demon told me “I’m going to kill you today and nobody is even going to know that you’re dead until church time.â€
Sid: Now did you…do you think that that demon that communicated with you at that moment was the one that caused the afib?
Don: You know I think that it could have been I know that physically I was in a weakened condition because I hadn’t been eating and only drinking water and so my body was already struggling. You know if you fast at lengthy times you know that there are periods during that fast that your body just almost is screaming at you and it was at that… it was one of those moments. But…
Sid: So when you heard that obviously the demon was smart enough to say it to you as though it was your own thoughts or did you realize that it was an external voice?
Don: No I knew that it wasn’t my own thoughts I knew that it was an external voice. I have to admit to you even though I had been preaching and pasturing and being a guest speaker for years and years and years and really believed in the supernatural and the miraculous the first emotion that I felt was fear. Because I had a wife and 2 young children at the time and then of course I want to stay with my family and raise my family and the first thing was fear. Then I couldn’t even get up, I’d fallen and I couldn’t even get up I was too weak. And I finally it just…I guess my faith just kicked in and so I just said out loud I said “Devil if you think that you can kill me then go ahead but I don’t believe that you have that authority in my life; I believe that my expiration date is up to a higher power, but I’ll tell you this if you let me live till church time I am going to preach tonight.†And immediately I gained enough strength to get up and get dress and lay down on the bed but I was in weakened condition all day long. And that night I spoke just hanging on to the pulpit to stand up. Went back to my hotel room and called my wife and she prayed with me and when I woke up the next morning I woke up with my heart in rhythm, I was strong, I felt that I had sat down to a banquet table because I had supernatural strength. But an unexpected cross when it hits you tries to take your legs out from under you but that’s when your faith has to kick into action.
