Dog the Bounty Hunter On Relying on Prayer and ‘God’s Supernatural Power’
By Movieguide® Staff
Duane Chapman, better known as “Dog the Bounty Hunter,” recently shared how he relies on prayer in today’s culture full of spiritual warfare.
“I’m going to walk in the steps of Jesus,” he said on a recent episode of THE KELLIE SHOW.
Chapman, alongside his wife, Francie, said that Christians need to rely on the Holy Spirit amid spiritual attacks.
“We all know that there’s evil and good. So let’s go one step further. Katie and I and Francie have met a lot of bank robbers and we met a lot of guys that will beat you down and shoot you. But there’s this other realm of criminal which is called demonic,” he said. “Now those demonic guys will kill their own mothers. They’ll walk into a school and start shooting everybody or a shopping center. Now, evil is evil, but demonic evil is there. We all know now in America that we’ve seen demonic evil. ‘How could that guy do that?’ On the natural flipside of that coin has to be God’s supernatural power.”
“After Beth passed away I went to the Lord and said ‘alright here I am. I am going after the supernatural. I’m not satisfied with Christianity, I want super-Christianity’,” Chapman said, in reference to the death of his first wife.
Chapman, 69, also said that it is important to read God’s word and trust in his plan for his children.
“The Bible says in the beginning of the last days, which we’re all in, [and] everyone knows that, sinner or not, you know that something is going on,” he explained. “And the Bible says ‘I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh.’ All flesh is me! And then you know what else it says, it says ‘on your sons and your daughters shall prophesy.'”
Chapman shared a story about how he and Francie had just finished taking communion and were driving down a street in Nashville when they suddenly spotted a girl overdosing on drugs and convulsing in the street.
“The Lord said to me ‘she needs help’. And I looked at her and she’s passing out and her eyes are rolling in the back of her head. And I asked God what do I do and He said ‘either give her mouth to mouth or lay hands on her’,” he recalled.
Fracnie and Chapman are working to fight against sex trafficking, which will be featured in a new show called DOG THE BOUNTY HUNTER AND THE ESSENTIALS.
“We’re going after child molesters, child predators, guys that kill women, guys that beat women,” he said. “Right now in America, it’s about the only people they leave in jail. So we are going after the worst of the worse and we’re bringing them in, in Jesus’ name.”
“We want them to live a life that is outside of abuse and to know who they are in Christ,” Francie added. “We’ve been praying a lot about what’s next. We know that God brought us together for a specific reason and for a powerful reason and to bring glory to His Kingdom, everywhere we go and we want to do that and that’s our heart.”
