We've found Jesus. 186 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.000 And because he's my best friend, I could see the change in his life. 187 00:10:05.000 --> 00:10:09.000 Long story short, as a result of the change in his life, 188 00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:14.000 I began to ask God, I began to sort of consider maybe God was real, 189 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.000 because no one could change this man. 190 00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.000 But he has changed, he's my best friend. 191 00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:20.000 And this isn't jokes, this is for real. 192 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.000 So I thought there must be a God. 193 00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:26.000 It was in 1977 that happened. 194 00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:30.000 A few months later, I had a drug overdose. 195 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:34.000 And as I was smoking hash through a bowl, 196 00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:38.000 and the mafia had put horse strychnine into the hash, 197 00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:40.000 because it was not good hash, 198 00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:42.000 and I was born with a heart murmur. 199 00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:44.000 And when that strychnine went into my bloodstream, 200 00:10:44.000 --> 00:10:47.000 my heart went crazy, and I fell off the seat, 201 00:10:47.000 --> 00:10:50.000 and I went face down, and I vomited. 202 00:10:50.000 --> 00:10:53.000 And I was paralysed, my body went paralysed, 203 00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:55.000 and I couldn't move my face in, and I might vomit. 204 00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:57.000 And as I'm lying face down and I vomit, 205 00:10:57.000 --> 00:11:00.000 I felt somebody step next to me, 206 00:11:00.000 --> 00:11:02.000 I felt some feet next to my head, 207 00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:04.000 and in my mind I'm wishing them, I'm willing them, 208 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:08.000 please turn me over, I can't breathe, I can't breathe. 209 00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:12.000 As I was lying in my vomit, wishing whoever was next to me, 210 00:11:12.000 --> 00:11:15.000 turn me over, whoever it was laughed at me, 211 00:11:15.000 --> 00:11:17.000 and they said, I've got you now. 212 00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:19.000 And it was the most evil laugh I've ever heard. 213 00:11:19.000 --> 00:11:21.000 It said, I've got you now. 214 00:11:21.000 --> 00:11:24.000 And I've never, I didn't believe in God or the devil, 215 00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.000 but it felt like the devil was next to me. 216 00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.000 And so I'm face down in my own vomit, 217 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:31.000 and I'm vomiting, and I can't breathe, I'm paralysed. 218 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:35.000 I had my face to the side, and I was breathing out of one nostril. 219 00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:37.000 And as I was vomiting, the vomit was rising, 220 00:11:37.000 --> 00:11:39.000 and I knew I was going to die. 221 00:11:39.000 --> 00:11:42.000 It was at that moment that I remembered my best friend's words 222 00:11:42.000 --> 00:11:44.000 who'd become a Christian. 223 00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:46.000 He said to me, in your darkest moment, Norm, 224 00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:48.000 you need to call on the name of Jesus. 225 00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.000 Now, I'd never prayed in my life, 226 00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:53.000 but those words came into my mind, call on the name of Jesus. 227 00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:54.000 And I didn't know how to pray. 228 00:11:54.000 --> 00:11:56.000 I'd never prayed in my life, as I said. 229 00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.000 So I just, I could only think. 230 00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:00.000 So I just sent a thought up. 231 00:12:00.000 --> 00:12:02.000 I just said, thought, Jesus, help me. 232 00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:05.000 And the moment I thought, Jesus, help me, 233 00:12:05.000 --> 00:12:07.000 my head stopped spinning. 234 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.000 I stopped, literally stopped vomiting. 235 00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.000 And a peace came on me. 236 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:14.000 And about an hour or so later, it must have been about an hour, 237 00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:17.000 the paralysis wore off, and I was able to breathe. 238 00:12:17.000 --> 00:12:19.000 That took place in 1977. 239 00:12:19.000 --> 00:12:23.000 So I met the devil and Jesus on the same night. 240 00:12:23.000 --> 00:12:26.000 And so my life, it's not about academics. 241 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.000 It's not about Bible stories. 242 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:30.000 I literally met Jesus. 243 00:12:30.000 --> 00:12:32.000 He saved my life. 244 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:33.000 I also met the devil. 245 00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:34.000 I know he's real, too. 246 00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:37.000 And so a couple of years later, I met my wife. 247 00:12:37.000 --> 00:12:38.000 We got married. 248 00:12:38.000 --> 00:12:40.000 We went to a great church. 249 00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:44.000 My spiritual father, he was full of the Holy Spirit, 250 00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:46.000 and he taught me. 251 00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:48.000 And he said, son, if you don't see signs, wonders, 252 00:12:48.000 --> 00:12:51.000 and miracles on a daily basis, it's not true Christianity, 253 00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:54.000 because Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever. 254 00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:55.000 So I was born again. 255 00:12:55.000 --> 00:12:57.000 Me and my wife were born again. 256 00:12:57.000 --> 00:12:59.000 But we were born again in the fire of God. 257 00:12:59.000 --> 00:13:01.000 We weren't born again in the smoke. 258 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:05.000 And so this is the life that we've lived now for over 40 years. 259 00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:07.000 We've been married 41 years, rather. 260 00:13:07.000 --> 00:13:09.000 And 40 years, we've known Jesus. 261 00:13:09.000 --> 00:13:11.000 Last year was our 40th year. 262 00:13:11.000 --> 00:13:14.000 We both saved in 40 years we were married. 263 00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:17.000 So it's a double portion crossover. 264 00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:22.000 And so we moved to Gisborne in 1991 by a vision. 265 00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:25.000 The Lord took me up out of my body and showed me this east coast 266 00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.000 and showed me the type of church it was going to be 267 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.000 and that there's going to be walk-a-noos. 268 00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:34.000 I'll show you this picture here. 269 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:35.000 So I saw these. 270 00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:36.000 It wasn't a vision. 271 00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:38.000 It was more than that. 272 00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:39.000 I was taken up. 273 00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:41.000 I saw these walk-a-noos in the bay of this city, 274 00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.000 of this place called Gisborne. 275 00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:45.000 And he said, the walk-a-noos are going to be ministries 276 00:13:45.000 --> 00:13:48.000 that I'm going to send forth from this place, Gisborne. 277 00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.000 When you go to Gisborne and you start this church, 278 00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:53.000 it's going to send out walk-a-noos full of warriors, 279 00:13:53.000 --> 00:13:54.000 and they're going to go throughout the nation 280 00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:57.000 and throughout the nations of the earth to take my gospel. 281 00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:00.000 So it was 29 years ago that we came here. 282 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:02.000 And when we came to Gisborne, we didn't know anybody here. 283 00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:04.000 We'd never been here in our lives. 284 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:06.000 But God, the Holy Spirit, had sent us. 285 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:09.000 We started a church, hired a school hall. 286 00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:12.000 And on the first day, the first Sunday, 287 00:14:12.000 --> 00:14:15.000 31 people turned up in the morning service 288 00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.000 and 36 turned up at night. 289 00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:19.000 All up, 67 people turned up on the first day 290 00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:22.000 that we started church, which was amazing. 291 00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:24.000 Signs and wonders took place immediately. 292 00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:25.000 Miracles took place. 293 00:14:25.000 --> 00:14:27.000 Cripples were healed. 294 00:14:27.000 --> 00:14:28.000 Deaf people were healed. 295 00:14:28.000 --> 00:14:31.000 Heart problems, disease, cancers dissolved. 296 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:37.000 And the church grew from nothing to 504 years. 297 00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:38.000 This is in Gisborne. 298 00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.000 This is in 1991. 299 00:14:39.000 --> 00:14:42.000 And all the way through, the church just began 300 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:43.000 to explode with growth. 301 00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:46.000 I mean, we had revival going on and signs and wonders. 302 00:14:46.000 --> 00:14:48.000 And I would train God's people. 303 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:51.000 Most of the people, 90%, are brand-new Christians. 304 00:14:51.000 --> 00:14:56.000 And so I had to teach them how to find their identity in God, 305 00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:58.000 how to find their sense of significance, 306 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.000 not out of their past. 307 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.480 us, not out of their pain, not out of their sin, not out of anything but out of Jesus. 308 00:15:05.480 --> 00:15:07.320 And I pointed them to Jesus. 309 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.600 And as they found their sense of significance in Christ, then I taught them how to walk 310 00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:17.560 as God's people, as sons of God, as warrior men and women of God, and to rise up in the 311 00:15:17.560 --> 00:15:24.140 Spirit of God, and just simply to live like I lived, just to love Jesus and to love people. 312 00:15:24.140 --> 00:15:28.080 And as a result, that's how the church grew, because the people here are so wonderful, 313 00:15:28.080 --> 00:15:32.540 they're amazing people, love God, love people, and they begin to operate in the supernatural 314 00:15:32.540 --> 00:15:33.540 power of God. 315 00:15:33.540 --> 00:15:38.640 So that's a very, very brief history of who I am. 316 00:15:38.640 --> 00:15:44.300 So you get a bit of an idea of who I am and where I'm from. 317 00:15:44.300 --> 00:15:51.380 So our ministry here, we've been ministering for 35 years, full-time, I mean, full-time 318 00:15:51.380 --> 00:15:54.100 the moment we come to Jesus. 319 00:15:54.100 --> 00:16:01.000 We have taken warrior teams of trained God's people and taken them around the world, around 320 00:16:01.000 --> 00:16:04.040 the nation, around the nations of the earth. 321 00:16:04.040 --> 00:16:07.380 Our biggest churches are in India. 322 00:16:07.380 --> 00:16:11.480 We have over 17 churches there, thousands of people there. 323 00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:14.640 It's the only time I've seen it well. 324 00:16:14.640 --> 00:16:21.400 The church went from 130 to 3,007 years through signs and wonders, Muslims, Hindus, Communists 325 00:16:21.400 --> 00:16:24.040 coming to Jesus in their thousands. 326 00:16:24.040 --> 00:16:27.740 Now we don't know how big the church is, it just keeps exploding. 327 00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:32.060 We also have a daughter church, or a sister church rather, in Oamaru. 328 00:16:32.060 --> 00:16:35.620 So I don't always have kids, my kids grow up to be adults, so we have a sister church 329 00:16:35.620 --> 00:16:38.220 in Oamaru. 330 00:16:38.220 --> 00:16:44.460 And also we alliance with churches all around the world, ministering in places like Pakistan 331 00:16:44.460 --> 00:16:48.180 and Chile and all through the Pacific Islands. 332 00:16:48.180 --> 00:16:55.360 I am Māori, my forefather, my father's side is Pākehā, Ngāti Pākehā, I'm a cloud, 333 00:16:55.360 --> 00:17:01.600 a good Scottish name, but on my mother's side it was shepherd, and my mother was Ngāpuhi, 334 00:17:01.600 --> 00:17:07.760 and I'm a direct, I'm a seventh generation direct descendant of the great war chief, 335 00:17:07.760 --> 00:17:12.140 Māori war chief called Hongi Hika. 336 00:17:12.140 --> 00:17:15.960 And so that's a bit of my history, it's a bit of a fruit salad way of showing it, but 337 00:17:16.140 --> 00:17:19.140 that's who I am, whānau. 338 00:17:19.140 --> 00:17:22.140 Okay, where do we go from here? 339 00:17:22.140 --> 00:17:23.140 What can I teach you? 340 00:17:23.140 --> 00:17:26.260 I can only teach you what Jesus has taught me. 341 00:17:26.260 --> 00:17:30.100 Like Paul, I won't teach, I won't preach anything that God has wrought out in my life, so to 342 00:17:30.100 --> 00:17:32.420 speak, because I can't. 343 00:17:32.420 --> 00:17:37.620 I can only share with you what I've got, so in God I have none, but what I do have I want 344 00:17:37.620 --> 00:17:40.380 to give you in the name of Jesus. 345 00:17:40.400 --> 00:17:46.400 And so what I do have here, I have Jesus, and I have learnt how to release his presence. 346 00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:50.920 I've learnt how to draw near to him, he's my breath, he's everything. 347 00:17:50.920 --> 00:17:54.160 Like a fish needs water, I need Jesus. 348 00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:55.320 He's number one. 349 00:17:55.320 --> 00:17:58.960 So you might get bored of it, but I'm going to keep pointing it back to Jesus, because 350 00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:01.280 it's out of relationship with him. 351 00:18:01.280 --> 00:18:07.000 It's only what I hear him saying to me, what I feel he's speaking to me, that's where my 352 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:09.560 ministry comes from, out of Jesus. 353 00:18:09.560 --> 00:18:18.660 So this is just first day one, this is just introduction. 354 00:18:18.660 --> 00:18:22.060 And signs and wonders. 355 00:18:22.060 --> 00:18:25.860 Now I've got a memory verse for you, you're going to have some homework. 356 00:18:25.860 --> 00:18:31.540 Your memory verse is John chapter 14 verse 12. 357 00:18:31.540 --> 00:18:32.820 John 14, 12. 358 00:18:32.820 --> 00:18:37.380 Always have a pen and paper ready, always have a Bible ready, okay? 359 00:18:37.380 --> 00:18:38.660 John 14, 12. 360 00:18:38.660 --> 00:18:44.180 Jesus' words, truly, truly I say to you, the works that I do, you will do also. 361 00:18:44.180 --> 00:18:47.840 And greater works than these, because they're greater than my Father. 362 00:18:47.840 --> 00:18:53.120 So I want to teach you how to personalise the word of God, make the word flesh in your 363 00:18:53.120 --> 00:18:54.980 life. 364 00:18:54.980 --> 00:18:58.400 So this is how I moved in the anointing. 365 00:18:58.400 --> 00:19:01.100 I read God's word, but it's information. 366 00:19:01.100 --> 00:19:04.300 You just read the word, it's just information. 367 00:19:04.300 --> 00:19:09.820 And so I remember reading John 14, 12, I remember reading Luke 4, 18. 368 00:19:09.820 --> 00:19:14.320 Luke 4, 18 is where Jesus said, the Spirit of the Lord God is upon me. 369 00:19:14.320 --> 00:19:18.460 He has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor, and to heal the brokenhearted, 370 00:19:18.460 --> 00:19:22.440 to set the captives free, recovery of sight to the blind, etc, etc. 371 00:19:22.440 --> 00:19:26.460 And I would read that and think, wow, Jesus is so anointed. 372 00:19:26.460 --> 00:19:30.960 And I would see my pastor, and he would minister to the sick, he would preach. 373 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.400 And I'd say, man, my pastor's anointed. 374 00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:36.160 And he prays for the sick, they get better. 375 00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:40.760 When he comes and speaks to people, he begins to prophesy over them, wow, he's anointed. 376 00:19:40.760 --> 00:19:43.840 And I wondered, how come I can't move like that? 377 00:19:43.840 --> 00:19:45.440 How do I move like that? 378 00:19:45.440 --> 00:19:47.160 How can I move in that anointing? 379 00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:49.160 This was my early years. 380 00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:52.640 And so there was word, when I'd read Luke 4, 18, it was information. 381 00:19:52.640 --> 00:19:56.680 Okay, there wasn't a manifestation, it was just information. 382 00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:00.080 I want to share with you how I turned information into anointing. 383 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.760 into a manifestation, how I made the Luke 4.18 flesh in me. 384 00:20:04.760 --> 00:20:08.080 I can say to you now, the Spirit of the Lord is upon Norm, 385 00:20:08.080 --> 00:20:09.440 for God's anointed Norm, 386 00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:12.160 to preach the good news to the poor. 387 00:20:12.160 --> 00:20:14.720 And Norm is, I am preaching the good news to the poor. 388 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:16.640 Norm is healing the brokenhearted. 389 00:20:16.640 --> 00:20:19.840 Norm is proclaiming recovery of sight to the blind. 390 00:20:19.840 --> 00:20:23.080 I can now say to you that word is not information to me, 391 00:20:23.080 --> 00:20:25.120 it's revelation. 392 00:20:25.120 --> 00:20:29.080 And I want to teach you how I turned the word flesh, 393 00:20:29.080 --> 00:20:31.560 and the word became flesh from information to revelation. 394 00:20:31.560 --> 00:20:32.400 This is how I did it. 395 00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:34.040 You're listening? 396 00:20:34.040 --> 00:20:36.280 Point one, information. 397 00:20:36.280 --> 00:20:38.440 When you read the word, it's just information. 398 00:20:38.440 --> 00:20:41.280 No biggie, but you got to start somewhere. 399 00:20:41.280 --> 00:20:43.080 Information is just knowledge. 400 00:20:43.080 --> 00:20:44.960 Knowledge isn't wisdom. 401 00:20:44.960 --> 00:20:45.960 Knowledge isn't wisdom. 402 00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:49.320 Just having information or knowledge is nothing. 403 00:20:49.320 --> 00:20:52.280 There's so much on Facebook, it's just knowledge. 404 00:20:52.280 --> 00:20:53.720 It's not wisdom, it's just knowledge. 405 00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:56.360 And some of the knowledge is not worth knowing. 406 00:20:56.360 --> 00:20:58.360 Okay, so number one, you need knowledge. 407 00:20:59.360 --> 00:21:00.280 Haggai the prophet said, 408 00:21:00.280 --> 00:21:02.560 my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. 409 00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:07.440 Jesus said in John 8, that when you know the truth, 410 00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:11.760 now if you abide in my word, and my word abides in you, 411 00:21:11.760 --> 00:21:15.120 you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free. 412 00:21:15.120 --> 00:21:16.960 So the first thing, you need knowledge. 413 00:21:16.960 --> 00:21:18.280 But knowledge is just information. 414 00:21:18.280 --> 00:21:20.000 Write it down, information. 415 00:21:20.000 --> 00:21:23.280 Now how do you turn information into revelation? 416 00:21:23.280 --> 00:21:26.760 Because information won't change you, but revelation will. 417 00:21:26.880 --> 00:21:30.760 So this is how I changed information to revelation. 418 00:21:30.760 --> 00:21:33.840 We write down point number two, meditation. 419 00:21:33.840 --> 00:21:34.680 You got it? 420 00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:35.680 Meditation. 421 00:21:36.600 --> 00:21:39.160 Joshua 1.8, the word of God says, 422 00:21:39.160 --> 00:21:41.200 now if we meditate on his word night and day, 423 00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:42.480 night and day, night and day, 424 00:21:42.480 --> 00:21:43.640 and day and night, and day and night, 425 00:21:43.640 --> 00:21:44.800 and day and night, and night and day, 426 00:21:44.800 --> 00:21:47.840 meditate on it, then we will have good success. 427 00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:51.600 Then we will be fruitful, then we'll be successful. 428 00:21:51.600 --> 00:21:52.920 Meditation. 429 00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:55.160 So you take the word of God, the information, 430 00:21:55.360 --> 00:22:00.200 for instance Luke, let's do Luke 4.18 as a memory verse, 431 00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:01.640 okay, let's stick to that. 432 00:22:01.640 --> 00:22:05.000 Not John 14.12, we'll do Luke 4.18. 433 00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:08.600 Okay, it says the spirit of the Lord God is upon me. 434 00:22:09.720 --> 00:22:11.720 So how do you meditate? 435 00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:14.200 I meditate, I think about every word. 436 00:22:14.200 --> 00:22:17.400 Meditation is like a cow chewing, chewing, chewing. 437 00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:20.400 So I go over and over, what does that word mean? 438 00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:23.040 The, okay, start off with the, the. 439 00:22:23.040 --> 00:22:23.880 What is the? 440 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:25.400 What's the speaking about? 441 00:22:25.400 --> 00:22:26.240 What is the? 442 00:22:26.240 --> 00:22:29.320 Well, it's talking about the spirit of the Lord, the. 443 00:22:29.320 --> 00:22:31.280 So I meditate just on the first word. 444 00:22:31.280 --> 00:22:33.360 You might think this is very basic. 445 00:22:33.360 --> 00:22:37.600 Well, it is, but big foundations are built out of basics. 446 00:22:37.600 --> 00:22:41.480 The, the, so meditate, what does the mean? 447 00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:42.880 Luke 4.18. 448 00:22:42.880 --> 00:22:45.840 Then, the, then next one, spirit. 449 00:22:45.840 --> 00:22:49.960 Obviously the is spirit, the spirit, the spirit. 450 00:22:49.960 --> 00:22:51.800 Spirit, what is spirit? 451 00:22:51.800 --> 00:22:54.040 Now meditate on a spirit, what is spirit? 452 00:22:54.040 --> 00:22:58.880 Spirit is God, spirit is breath, spirit is the anointing. 453 00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:03.880 The spirit, the anointing, the breath, the spirit. 454 00:23:04.800 --> 00:23:06.040 Of, what is of? 455 00:23:06.040 --> 00:23:08.680 The next word is of, of, what does of mean? 456 00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:12.080 Of means of something, of something. 457 00:23:12.080 --> 00:23:13.200 Are you catching this? 458 00:23:14.800 --> 00:23:18.200 Of, I'm teaching you how to meditate, of. 459 00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:23.200 So I've got now the spirit of the breath, 460 00:23:24.560 --> 00:23:28.240 the anointing of, of something, of what? 461 00:23:28.240 --> 00:23:32.120 God, next word is God, the spirit of God. 462 00:23:32.120 --> 00:23:36.400 The spirit of the Lord, sorry, the Lord, the Lord. 463 00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:40.080 The Lord, the Lord, the one and only, the Lord. 464 00:23:40.080 --> 00:23:41.720 Who is the Lord? 465 00:23:41.720 --> 00:23:43.800 Lord is Jesus. 466 00:23:43.800 --> 00:23:46.360 The Lord is the beginning and the end. 467 00:23:46.360 --> 00:23:51.200 The Lord is, I'm meditating, I'm not just teaching, 468 00:23:51.200 --> 00:23:54.840 I'm not, as I'm doing it, I'm getting revelation myself. 469 00:23:54.840 --> 00:23:56.480 The spirit of the Lord. 470 00:23:58.000 --> 00:24:03.000 The next step is upon me, upon me, what? 471 00:24:05.040 --> 00:24:07.520 The spirit of the most high, upon me, 472 00:24:07.520 --> 00:24:10.840 the breath of God is upon me. 473 00:24:10.840 --> 00:24:13.760 So that's meditation, okay? 474 00:24:13.760 --> 00:24:17.360 Information, go into meditation. 475 00:24:17.360 --> 00:24:20.000 Meditate on that information, meditation. 476 00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:21.080 Just showing you how to do that. 477 00:24:21.080 --> 00:24:25.240 Number two, number three, you'll get revelation. 478 00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:28.040 When you do meditation, you'll get revelation. 479 00:24:28.040 --> 00:24:30.800 So revelation will come, okay? 480 00:24:30.800 --> 00:24:31.960 So we're getting somewhere now. 481 00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:34.360 The spirit of God's beginning to move in you. 482 00:24:34.360 --> 00:24:38.000 The word's gonna begin to come unflesh in you. 483 00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:40.000 Meditation brings revelation. 484 00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:41.520 And as you get that revelation, 485 00:24:41.520 --> 00:24:43.120 you need to write stuff down. 486 00:24:43.360 --> 00:24:45.240 I have my book of acts, okay? 487 00:24:45.240 --> 00:24:46.600 Acts of the Holy Spirit. 488 00:24:46.600 --> 00:24:49.160 The book of acts isn't finished. 489 00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:52.400 The Holy Spirit is still doing acts through his people. 490 00:24:52.400 --> 00:24:54.320 So you've got your own book of acts, 491 00:24:54.320 --> 00:24:55.560 I've got my book of acts. 492 00:24:55.560 --> 00:24:57.600 You need to have your book and journal 493 00:24:57.600 --> 00:25:00.000 every act of the Holy Spirit, every miracle God. 494 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:02.280 Now I've got thousands of miracles 495 00:25:02.280 --> 00:25:04.880 that have been recorded in books. 496 00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:06.320 Okay, they're my book of acts. 497 00:25:06.320 --> 00:25:09.280 You also need your own book of revelations, okay? 498 00:25:09.280 --> 00:25:11.120 Not the book of revelations, okay? 499 00:25:11.120 --> 00:25:12.360 Don't get carried away. 500 00:25:12.360 --> 00:25:13.960 Your book of revelations. 501 00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:15.760 So that you can go back over and say, 502 00:25:15.760 --> 00:25:18.120 yeah, I remember when God spoke that to me in 1980. 503 00:25:18.120 --> 00:25:20.560 I remember when God spoke that to me last week. 504 00:25:20.560 --> 00:25:25.560 Okay, so information, meditation brings revelation. 505 00:25:26.920 --> 00:25:28.200 So once you get revelation 506 00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:30.920 that the spirit of the Lord goes upon you. 507 00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:32.400 So I did this many years ago. 508 00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:34.640 Suddenly I revealed the spirit of the Lord 509 00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:36.720 is not just on Pastor John. 510 00:25:36.720 --> 00:25:38.440 It's not just on Jesus. 511 00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:40.160 He's upon me. 512 00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:41.800 That's revelation. 513 00:25:41.800 --> 00:25:42.640 You getting it? 514 00:25:44.200 --> 00:25:46.280 What's the next step after revelation? 515 00:25:47.280 --> 00:25:49.560 The next step is application. 516 00:25:49.560 --> 00:25:53.480 Write it down, application, application. 517 00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:54.520 What's application? 518 00:25:54.520 --> 00:25:57.240 It's application of the revelation 519 00:25:57.240 --> 00:26:00.400 that you got through the meditation of the information. 520 00:26:00.400 --> 00:26:01.240 Okay? 521 00:26:02.480 --> 00:26:03.400 Application. 522 00:26:04.320 --> 00:26:08.280 And so when I got the revelation 523 00:26:08.280 --> 00:26:10.200 that the spirit of the Lord God was upon me 524 00:26:10.200 --> 00:26:11.640 as it was upon my pastor, 525 00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:14.160 I felt the Holy Spirit said to me, 526 00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:16.240 now I want you to start speaking that out 527 00:26:16.240 --> 00:26:19.200 over your life, Norm, every day, declare. 528 00:26:19.200 --> 00:26:20.880 At least several times a day, 529 00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:23.560 say the spirit of the Lord God is upon Norm. 530 00:26:23.560 --> 00:26:26.200 For you have anointed Norm with the Holy Spirit. 531 00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:27.800 Now the spirit of the Lord is upon Norm. 532 00:26:27.800 --> 00:26:29.520 I'm getting Acts 10, 38 mixed up. 533 00:26:29.520 --> 00:26:30.880 Sorry about that, whanau. 534 00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:32.000 Luke 4, 18. 535 00:26:32.000 --> 00:26:32.840 I would speak this, 536 00:26:32.840 --> 00:26:34.720 that the spirit of the Lord God is upon Norm. 537 00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:37.560 Norm, you have anointed Norm 538 00:26:37.560 --> 00:26:39.320 to preach the good news to the poor. 539 00:26:39.320 --> 00:26:41.680 You have anointed Norm to heal the brokenhearted. 540 00:26:41.680 --> 00:26:44.760 You have anointed Norm to bring recovery of sight 541 00:26:44.760 --> 00:26:45.600 to the blind. 542 00:26:45.600 --> 00:26:48.840 I would put my name in that scripture 543 00:26:48.840 --> 00:26:51.400 and I would speak it out again and again and again, 544 00:26:51.400 --> 00:26:54.480 every day after day after day after day 545 00:26:54.520 --> 00:26:56.280 after week after week. 546 00:26:56.280 --> 00:26:58.200 For two weeks, I spoke this scripture. 547 00:26:58.200 --> 00:27:00.200 I prophesied that scripture. 548 00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:01.880 That is the application. 549 00:27:01.880 --> 00:27:03.280 That is the meditation. 550 00:27:03.280 --> 00:27:04.640 But I began to declare it, 551 00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:07.400 declaration, declaration, declaration. 552 00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:08.920 Why, I didn't know why I was doing it. 553 00:27:08.920 --> 00:27:11.600 I said to God, I keep saying I'm anointed, 554 00:27:11.600 --> 00:27:13.560 but do I really believe that? 555 00:27:13.560 --> 00:27:15.600 He says, Romans 10, 17. 556 00:27:15.600 --> 00:27:18.640 Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God. 557 00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:21.040 He said, every time you hear the word of God, 558 00:27:21.040 --> 00:27:22.600 your name in the word of God, 559 00:27:22.600 --> 00:27:24.440 your faith is rising. 560 00:27:25.200 --> 00:27:26.480 I said, but Lord, aren't I lying? 561 00:27:26.480 --> 00:27:28.040 I don't feel anointed, 562 00:27:28.040 --> 00:27:30.400 but you're telling me to say I am anointed? 563 00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:32.040 He said, you're not lying. 564 00:27:32.040 --> 00:27:33.760 You're agreeing with truth. 565 00:27:33.760 --> 00:27:36.440 Joel 3, I think it's Joel 3, 17. 566 00:27:36.440 --> 00:27:39.320 Let the weak say, I am strong. 567 00:27:39.320 --> 00:27:40.360 So it's not about lying. 568 00:27:40.360 --> 00:27:42.280 It's about agreeing with what truth says. 569 00:27:42.280 --> 00:27:45.080 You can agree what you feel, what the devil says, 570 00:27:45.080 --> 00:27:46.600 or you can agree with what I say. 571 00:27:46.600 --> 00:27:48.600 And let the weak say they're strong. 572 00:27:48.600 --> 00:27:50.400 It's not lying, it's agreeing with God. 573 00:27:50.400 --> 00:27:51.680 And you are anointed. 574 00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:53.000 The spirit of the Lord is upon you. 575 00:27:53.000 --> 00:27:54.800 I have anointed you to preach the good news to the poor 576 00:27:54.800 --> 00:27:56.040 and heal the brokenhearted. 577 00:27:56.040 --> 00:27:58.480 So agree with truth and decree truth. 578 00:27:58.480 --> 00:28:01.040 And so after two weeks, 579 00:28:01.040 --> 00:28:03.760 I just knew the spirit of the Lord is upon me. 580 00:28:03.760 --> 00:28:05.560 I'm anointed to preach the good news to the poor 581 00:28:05.560 --> 00:28:06.960 and heal the brokenhearted. 582 00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:09.160 So that was the application. 583 00:28:10.080 --> 00:28:12.800 The application, now do it. 584 00:28:13.880 --> 00:28:15.120 Okay? 585 00:28:15.120 --> 00:28:17.600 And so I knew I was anointed. 586 00:28:17.600 --> 00:28:19.800 And so I began to pray for people. 587 00:28:19.800 --> 00:28:21.120 I began to pray for the sick, 588 00:28:21.120 --> 00:28:22.840 believing that I'm anointed. 589 00:28:23.680 --> 00:28:24.520 And you know what? 590 00:28:24.520 --> 00:28:26.000 They started getting healed. 591 00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:27.200 I began to prophesy. 592 00:28:27.200 --> 00:28:28.320 I began to pray for people. 593 00:28:28.320 --> 00:28:29.800 I'll get prophecies. 594 00:28:29.800 --> 00:28:31.920 The spirit of the Lord is upon me. 595 00:28:31.920 --> 00:28:33.840 He has anointed me to preach the good news to the poor 596 00:28:33.840 --> 00:28:34.960 to heal the brokenhearted. 597 00:28:34.960 --> 00:28:38.920 And so this is the fifth step, manifestation. 598 00:28:38.920 --> 00:28:42.280 The manifestation comes out of your application. 599 00:28:42.280 -->

00:28:49.080 --> 00:28:54.080 I-M-R-A, Information, Meditation, Revelation, 603 00:28:54.200 --> 00:28:57.320 Application, Manifestation, the MMAN. 604 00:28:58.240 --> 00:29:01.040 Okay, so whānau, we'll catch you tomorrow morning 605 00:29:01.040 --> 00:29:02.960 at 11 o'clock. 606 00:29:02.960 --> 00:29:05.880 And let me just do a karakia for you right now. 607 00:29:05.880 --> 00:29:09.920 As I just said, I've just come off LifeFeed, 608 00:29:09.920 --> 00:29:11.560 prayed for a man who was in a wheelchair, 609 00:29:11.560 --> 00:29:13.840 and power of God came upon him. 610 00:29:13.840 --> 00:29:15.320 He jumped out of his, well, didn't jump, 611 00:29:15.320 --> 00:29:16.840 he got out of his wheelchair and walked around. 612 00:29:16.840 --> 00:29:18.880 He said he hasn't been able to do that for ages. 613 00:29:19.720 --> 00:29:20.560 His family are just so excited. 614 00:29:20.560 --> 00:29:22.560 So right now, whether you're in a wheelchair, 615 00:29:22.560 --> 00:29:24.040 whether you've been given a diagnosis, 616 00:29:24.040 --> 00:29:27.040 a prognosis from the doctor that said there's no hope, 617 00:29:27.040 --> 00:29:30.080 who is man to tell you there is no hope? 618 00:29:30.080 --> 00:29:32.800 The arrogance of this, the arrogance of humanity, 619 00:29:32.800 --> 00:29:37.560 of humans, speaking out words of death over God's people. 620 00:29:37.560 --> 00:29:38.880 How dare they? 621 00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:40.920 And so it's a bit of a bugbear with me. 622 00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:42.600 That whose report will we believe? 623 00:29:42.600 --> 00:29:44.800 We will believe the report of the Lord. 624 00:29:44.800 --> 00:29:47.080 That God was healing incurable diseases 625 00:29:47.120 --> 00:29:50.320 long before medical science was invented, 626 00:29:50.320 --> 00:29:52.200 long before doctors came along. 627 00:29:52.200 --> 00:29:54.120 God was healing incurable diseases 628 00:29:54.120 --> 00:29:56.200 thousands of years beforehand. 629 00:29:56.200 --> 00:29:58.800 God was breaking through when there was only breakdown 630 00:29:58.800 --> 00:30:00.400 thousands of years beforehand. 631 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.400 man and his technology. 632 00:30:02.400 --> 00:30:07.400 Humanity is so arrogant, but Jesus is so awesome, okay? 633 00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:09.720 So whether there's sickness in your body, 634 00:30:09.720 --> 00:30:10.720 a disease in your body, 635 00:30:10.720 --> 00:30:13.680 whether you've been given a terminal diagnosis, prognosis, 636 00:30:14.680 --> 00:30:18.120 look, the gift that God's put on my life, 637 00:30:18.120 --> 00:30:21.800 it is, in many cases, the difference between life and death. 638 00:30:21.800 --> 00:30:24.040 I remember a lady, she was lying on a deathbed 639 00:30:24.040 --> 00:30:26.960 in Napier Hospital. 640 00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:28.800 Family asked me to come and pray for her, 641 00:30:28.840 --> 00:30:31.640 and as I prayed for her, the power of God came upon her, 642 00:30:31.640 --> 00:30:35.160 all the yellow skin, it turned, she began to glow. 643 00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:36.160 I says, drink the water. 644 00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:38.360 She said, I can't drink, I bring everything up. 645 00:30:38.360 --> 00:30:39.560 I says, have a drink. 646 00:30:39.560 --> 00:30:40.400 Faith is an action. 647 00:30:40.400 --> 00:30:42.920 When she drank the water, suddenly she sat up. 648 00:30:42.920 --> 00:30:43.880 I says, get off the bed. 649 00:30:43.880 --> 00:30:45.080 She got off the bed and walked. 650 00:30:45.080 --> 00:30:47.920 She lived another 15 years. 651 00:30:47.920 --> 00:30:49.440 Whose report will we believe? 652 00:30:49.440 --> 00:30:51.040 We will believe the report of the Lord. 653 00:30:51.040 --> 00:30:52.800 So right now, I wanna pray for healing 654 00:30:52.800 --> 00:30:54.760 for those that are watching around the mutu, 655 00:30:54.760 --> 00:30:56.320 around the nation,

Because I know faith is an action. 662 00:31:08.160 --> 00:31:09.160 Just do what I say. 663 00:31:09.160 --> 00:31:11.240 I've been doing this for decades and decades, 664 00:31:11.240 -->
