00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.000
Kia ora whānau. God bless you history makers. God bless you history maker.

2
00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:17.000
Just waiting for the history makers to tune in. Oh what's this?

3
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:22.000
Can you see that?

4
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:32.000
No, I don't think it's a heavenly stone. I think it's just something else.

5
00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:40.000
So, you are a history maker. You are a city shaker. You are a nation changer.

6
00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.000
No weapon formed against you will prosper. No weapon formed against you will prosper.

7
00:00:46.000 --> 00:00:49.000
Do you know what that means? No weapon formed against you will prosper.

8
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.000
That every weapon raised up against you, it won't prosper.

9
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:57.000
Sometimes you don't even have to pray against it because God has ordained it will not prosper.

10
00:00:57.000 --> 00:01:01.000
He's ordained it won't prosper. No weapon formed against you will prosper.

11
00:01:01.000 --> 00:01:04.000
And every tongue raised up in judgment against you.

12
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.000
So when it says every tongue, it means every word spoken out against you.

13
00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:13.000
Every word spoken out that's against God's plan and God's purpose for you.

14
00:01:13.000 --> 00:01:16.000
That's a weapon. Words are weapons.

15
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:20.000
But God gives us something to cast down. Weapons raised against us.

16
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:23.000
Words raised against us. Words that can be spoken out.

17
00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:26.000
It can be words of witchcraft that can have a spiritual component behind them.

18
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.000
Or they can just be words with hate and venom connected to it.

19
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:34.000
But the Word of God says, what is it? Isaiah 57?

20
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.000
Sorry, Isaiah 57 verse 14. Anyway, it says,

21
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:40.000
No weapon formed against you shall prosper.

22
00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:44.000
And every tongue raised up in judgment against you, meaning every word spoken out against you,

23
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:48.000
every curse made against you, it will not prosper.

24
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:53.000
And so 2 Corinthians chapter 10 verse 3 and 4 and I think 5.

25
00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:58.000
It says that God gives us weapons and the weapons of our warfare are not carnal,

26
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.000
but they are mighty through God for the pulling down of strongholds.

27
00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:06.000
Now the strongholds here is not the demons, is not the principalities and the powers.

28
00:02:06.000 --> 00:02:09.000
Okay, they have been pulled down.

29
00:02:09.000 --> 00:02:13.000
The principalities and powers ranged against you have already been disarmed.

30
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:17.000
Okay, I just laugh when Christians are out there binding principalities and powers.

31
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:20.000
And, you know, read your Bible.

32
00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:24.000
Jesus already disarmed them over you. They have no power over you.

33
00:02:24.000 --> 00:02:27.000
Don't empower them by decreeing that they have power.

34
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:35.000
Colossians 2, 13, 14, 15 that Jesus, he forgave us of our sins

35
00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:39.000
and he blotted out the handwriting of ordinances written against us.

36
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:43.000
It was sin that gave the devil principalities and powers power over us.

37
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:44.000
It was sin.

38
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:48.000
But Jesus blotted out the handwriting of the sins written against us,

39
00:02:48.000 --> 00:02:52.000
thus disarming the principalities and the powers

40
00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.000
and triumphing over them in it the cross.

41
00:02:56.000 --> 00:02:59.000
Okay, and so anyway, that's a by the by.

42
00:02:59.000 --> 00:03:01.000
But I'm saying to you that God gave us weapons

43
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:05.000
and the weapons are mighty through God for the pulling down of strongholds.

44
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:08.000
And the strongholds, it's not up in the sky.

45
00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:10.000
The strongholds are in your head. You with me?

46
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.000
The strongholds are in here.

47
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:16.000
So it goes on to say, casting down every vain imagination

48
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:21.000
and every thought raised up against the knowledge of God

49
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:26.000
and taking captive every thought captive to the obedience to Christ.

50
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:32.000
And so every tongue spoken against me, every word spoken against my loved ones,

51
00:03:32.000 --> 00:03:34.000
they're curses, okay?

52
00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:37.000
And if those words are against God's plan for our lives,

53
00:03:37.000 --> 00:03:38.000
they're curses.

54
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:39.000
God's plan for your life.

55
00:03:39.000 --> 00:03:41.000
My life is for good, not evil.

56
00:03:41.000 --> 00:03:44.000
It is that out that the devil comes to rob, kill and destroy.

57
00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:47.000
But Jesus said, I come to give you life and life in abundance.

58
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:50.000
So anything that comes to rob, kill or destroy your health,

59
00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:54.000
your finances, your marriage, your walk with God, it's of the devil.

60
00:03:54.000 --> 00:03:56.000
Okay, and so and it's a thought.

61
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:57.000
It always comes in a thought.

62
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:02.000
For instance, I've had doctors give diagnosis and prognosis over people

63
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.000
with their words and people come to me.

64
00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:07.000
The doctor says it's his terminal.

65
00:04:07.000 --> 00:04:08.000
I says, rubbish.

66
00:04:08.000 --> 00:04:11.000
That word that came out, and I'm not against medicine,

67
00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:13.000
neither am I against doctors.

68
00:04:13.000 --> 00:04:15.000
And God uses them in his degree.

69
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:16.000
He does.

70
00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:20.000
But there are some doctors that think they're God

71
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:23.000
and that they have no understanding that when they speak,

72
00:04:23.000 --> 00:04:25.000
they're putting a death sentence on somebody.

73
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.000
And I thank God for the strong Christians.

74
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:29.000
They say, sorry, Doc, I don't believe that.

75
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:30.000
I believe what God's word.

76
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.000
I'm going to believe his report, not your report.

77
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:35.000
But I've had people come and I've said, no,

78
00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.000
we're not going to accept the words of a man.

79
00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:40.000
Your times are not in the hands of a man.

80
00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:41.000
They're in the hands of God.

81
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:46.000
But society and the world, ungodly or unbelievers,

82
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:47.000
they worship science.

83
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:49.000
They worship medical science, so to speak.

84
00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:51.000
Medical science is like a God to them.

85
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:56.000
And even to a lot of Christians, medical science is more powerful than Jesus

86
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:58.000
in the sense of Jesus being the healer.

87
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.000
They put more faith in medical science.

88
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.480
And I want to tell you that God was healing incurable diseases thousands of years before medical science.

89
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:10.400
This is how far the church falls away from the truth of the Word.

90
00:05:10.400 --> 00:05:18.200
And so what do we do? I bind the words that have been spoken, and I rebuke the power of those words,

91
00:05:18.200 --> 00:05:21.400
and I make those words, I take them captive to the obedience of Jesus Christ.

92
00:05:21.400 --> 00:05:25.800
For instance, if a doctor says, you have this, this, and this, and you're terminal,

93
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:31.400
then I would say, no, we rebuke the power of those words, we cast down those words.

94
00:05:31.400 --> 00:05:36.000
But this is what Isaiah says, for every tongue raised up against you, you shall cast it down.

95
00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:41.000
And so it's casting down those words. So I bind and I rebuke the power of those words spoken out over you

96
00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:47.000
from any doctor, from any prognosis, diagnosis, from any person who spoke against your life,

97
00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:52.200
that is against the plan of God for your life, and His plan is life and life in abundance.

98
00:05:52.200 --> 00:05:56.600
So anything that tries to rob you of your life in any form, it's of the devil,

99
00:05:56.600 --> 00:06:00.000
and I declare the work of the devil has been destroyed by Jesus Christ,

100
00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:03.000
and we take every word captive to the obedience of Jesus.

101
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:07.200
If the doctor says death, we take you captive to obey Jesus. He says life.

102
00:06:07.200 --> 00:06:10.800
If the doctor says sickness, we take you captive to the obedience of Jesus Christ.

103
00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.000
He says, but I bore your sin in my own body on the cross, and you are dead to sin,

104
00:06:16.000 --> 00:06:20.000
and you're alive to righteous, and by my wounds you are healed.

105
00:06:20.200 --> 00:06:24.400
I decree the Word of God. I make every word, every tongue captive.

106
00:06:24.400 --> 00:06:27.400
I take you captive to the obedience of what the Word of God says.

107
00:06:27.400 --> 00:06:32.000
Whose report will we believe? We believe the report of the Lord in Jesus' name. Amen.

108
00:06:32.000 --> 00:06:35.200
Well, that was an interesting introduction, wasn't it, whānau?

109
00:06:35.200 --> 00:06:38.400
But there we go. We just go the way we go.

110
00:06:38.400 --> 00:06:42.200
Hallelujah. Whānau, I'm going to try and keep this to 20 minutes today.

111
00:06:42.200 --> 00:06:46.400
I'm just going to try and cut down on the time that I'm spending.

112
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.400
But first, homework. Luke 4.18.

113
00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:54.200
Now, I don't know what day this is that you have been confessing, declaring.

114
00:06:54.200 --> 00:06:55.800
So remember, there's a principle.

115
00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:00.200
There's a reason why you're declaring Luke 4.18 over your life every day.

116
00:07:00.200 --> 00:07:05.400
And that reason is that you're getting information, and you've done meditation,

117
00:07:05.400 --> 00:07:10.000
and you're doing declaration until you get the revelation.

118
00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:12.200
And how many have got the revelation yet?

119
00:07:12.200 --> 00:07:15.000
If you've got the revelation, if you believe what you're confessing,

120
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.800
that the Spirit of the Lord is upon you,

121
00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:21.200
and that you are anointed to preach the good news to the poor,

122
00:07:21.200 --> 00:07:23.600
you are anointed to heal the brokenhearted,

123
00:07:23.600 --> 00:07:25.800
that you are anointed to open blind eyes,

124
00:07:25.800 --> 00:07:28.400
you are anointed to proclaim recovery of sight to the blind.

125
00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:31.000
If you believe, if you've caught that revelation,

126
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:34.200
now you go to the next step, or the next two steps,

127
00:07:34.200 --> 00:07:38.800
which is now application, and which will bring a manifestation.

128
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:43.000
So if you believe you've caught the revelation that 4.18 is no longer a memory verse,

129
00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:46.000
but to you it's reality, the Word has become flesh in you,

130
00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:49.800
remember, day one, then pray for somebody.

131
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:51.200
Pray for somebody.

132
00:07:51.200 --> 00:07:55.400
If you believe you're anointed, that the Spirit of the Lord is upon you,

133
00:07:55.400 --> 00:07:57.800
that He has anointed you to preach the good news to the poor,

134
00:07:57.800 --> 00:07:59.400
and to heal the brokenhearted,

135
00:07:59.400 --> 00:08:02.200
now do some application with that anointing.

136
00:08:02.200 --> 00:08:05.200
Prophesy over someone in your household, okay?

137
00:08:05.200 --> 00:08:06.600
The Spirit of the Lord is upon you.

138
00:08:06.600 --> 00:08:09.000
He's anointed you to preach the good news.

139
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:10.600
So preach some good news to somebody.

140
00:08:10.600 --> 00:08:12.600
Prophesy over somebody today.

141
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:14.800
Come on, or pray for somebody today.

142
00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:17.200
If you caught the revelation that you're anointed,

143
00:08:17.200 --> 00:08:19.000
then use the anointing.

144
00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:21.000
Remember, this teaching is not about hooey-hooey,

145
00:08:21.000 --> 00:08:23.000
it's about dewy-dewy.

146
00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:28.000
Jesus didn't teach His disciples in a classroom.

147
00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:30.600
He taught them, but it was dewy-dewy.

148
00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:35.200
It wasn't sitting behind a desk and taking down theses and papers

149
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:41.400
and writing out, you know, theses and papers on this,

150
00:08:41.400 --> 00:08:44.200
papers on healing and papers on doctrine.

151
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:46.000
He didn't train His people like that.

152
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:47.400
He never did.

153
00:08:47.400 --> 00:08:50.400
That's westernization.

154
00:08:50.400 --> 00:08:53.400
Jesus took His disciples out and showed them what to do,

155
00:08:53.400 --> 00:08:55.200
and then He said, now you have a go.

156
00:08:55.200 --> 00:08:57.600
It was about dewy-dewy, not just hooey-hooey,

157
00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:01.200
or not just about academic acknowledgement of truth.

158
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:02.600
It's about the application of truth.

159
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:05.400
So now Luke 4.18, I've taught you about the truth.

160
00:09:05.400 --> 00:09:06.800
Now begin to apply the truth.

161
00:09:06.800 --> 00:09:08.600
Apply that word and start.

162
00:09:08.600 --> 00:09:10.600
So if you believe the Spirit of the Lord is upon you,

163
00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:14.200
if you believe that the Spirit of the Lord is upon you

164
00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:16.200
and He's anointed you to preach good news to the poor

165
00:09:16.200 --> 00:09:19.600
and heal broken hearts and recovery of sight to the blind

166
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:22.800
and freedom to the captives, then apply it.

167
00:09:22.800 --> 00:09:23.800
Start applying it.

168
00:09:23.800 --> 00:09:26.000
If you do application, the next step,

169
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:27.600
you're going to see manifestation.

170
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.200
So please send me a testimony.

171
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.400
Let me know how the word has become flesh in you.

172
00:09:33.400 --> 00:09:36.200
The next scripture you're memorizing is Act 1038.

173
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:39.200
And as I said yesterday, part of that Act 1038

174
00:09:39.400 --> 00:09:41.200
is that Jesus went about doing good.

175
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:44.000
So as I said, do good to some person.

176
00:09:44.000 --> 00:09:46.000
Do good to one person every day.

177
00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:48.400
Do something that you normally wouldn't do

178
00:09:48.400 --> 00:09:51.600
or just do a random act of kindness to somebody

179
00:09:51.600 --> 00:09:54.600
that you normally wouldn't do to someone different every day,

180
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:56.600
whether it's your neighbor, whether it's over online

181
00:09:56.600 --> 00:09:59.400
or whatever, just do something good to somebody,

182
00:09:59.400 --> 00:10:00.400
how Jesus went about it.

183
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:02.960
about doing good and healing all those oppressed to the devil.

184
00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:06.840
Often as Pentecostals, we want to just do all the spiritual stuff and cast out the devils

185
00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:09.560
and all the miracles, but Jesus did good too.

186
00:10:09.560 --> 00:10:10.560
He helped people.

187
00:10:10.560 --> 00:10:11.560
He put hope into people.

188
00:10:11.560 --> 00:10:12.640
He lifted people up.

189
00:10:12.640 --> 00:10:16.080
He gave food to people and spoke a kind word.

190
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:17.080
He would hug the kids.

191
00:10:17.080 --> 00:10:18.080
You know, it's doing good.

192
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:21.080
It's not just spiritual, spiritual, spiritual.

193
00:10:21.080 --> 00:10:22.640
It's body, soul and spirit.

194
00:10:22.640 --> 00:10:23.640
It's physical.

195
00:10:23.640 --> 00:10:26.160
It's giving a cry to somebody, giving a feed to somebody.

196
00:10:26.160 --> 00:10:28.640
It's giving a hug to somebody.

197
00:10:28.640 --> 00:10:29.640
Husbands hug your wives.

198
00:10:30.640 --> 00:10:31.640
Love your husbands.

199
00:10:31.640 --> 00:10:33.640
Anyway, that's the homework.

200
00:10:33.640 --> 00:10:38.640
Today, or tomorrow, tomorrow I'm going to teach from this.

201
00:10:39.640 --> 00:10:40.640
Can you see it?

202
00:10:41.640 --> 00:10:42.640
Okay.

203
00:10:43.640 --> 00:10:44.640
School of signs and wonders.

204
00:10:44.640 --> 00:10:45.640
Is it back to front?

205
00:10:45.640 --> 00:10:46.640
No, it's not back to front.

206
00:10:46.640 --> 00:10:47.640
It shouldn't be.

207
00:10:49.640 --> 00:10:50.640
Yeah.

208
00:10:50.640 --> 00:10:51.640
Okay.

209
00:10:51.640 --> 00:10:54.640
So I'm going to teach you from this and I'm going to teach you about the presence of God.

210
00:10:54.640 --> 00:10:58.640
I was going to go on healing, but I just don't feel in my spirit God wants me to do that.

211
00:10:58.640 --> 00:11:01.640
I'm going to teach more about his presence, about the presence of God that dwells in you.

212
00:11:01.640 --> 00:11:04.640
The teaching coming from this manual.

213
00:11:04.640 --> 00:11:07.640
And I will photocopy and, well, photocopy.

214
00:11:07.640 --> 00:11:09.640
I will put the notes on.

215
00:11:09.640 --> 00:11:11.640
I will send the notes through on the post.

216
00:11:11.640 --> 00:11:12.640
Okay.

217
00:11:12.640 --> 00:11:13.640
So you can print them out.

218
00:11:13.640 --> 00:11:18.640
And I just want to talk to you about the presence of God, where he is, how you carry him,

219
00:11:18.640 --> 00:11:20.640
but also how you release the presence of God.

220
00:11:20.640 --> 00:11:22.640
So I'm going to do some teaching on that.

221
00:11:22.640 --> 00:11:24.640
And it's going to be probably two days.

222
00:11:24.640 --> 00:11:25.640
Okay.

223
00:11:25.640 --> 00:11:26.640
It's a pipe.

224
00:11:26.640 --> 00:11:35.640
But this morning, I want to talk to you from 2 Corinthians chapter 4, verse 16 and 18.

225
00:11:35.640 --> 00:11:36.640
Beautiful scriptures.

226
00:11:36.640 --> 00:11:38.640
I'm going to read them to you.

227
00:11:38.640 --> 00:11:39.640
Okie dokie.

228
00:11:40.640 --> 00:11:41.640
Okay.

229
00:11:41.640 --> 00:11:43.640
Therefore, we do not lose heart.

230
00:11:43.640 --> 00:11:48.640
Even though the outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.

231
00:11:48.640 --> 00:11:52.640
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us.

232
00:11:52.640 --> 00:11:54.640
Say, working for us.

233
00:11:55.640 --> 00:11:56.640
Working for us.

234
00:11:56.640 --> 00:11:57.640
Okay.

235
00:11:57.640 --> 00:12:00.640
Our afflictions are working for us, not against us.

236
00:12:00.640 --> 00:12:01.640
Working for us.

237
00:12:01.640 --> 00:12:06.640
For our light afflictions, which are but for a moment, is working for us, are far more

238
00:12:06.640 --> 00:12:08.640
exceeding an eternal weight of glory.

239
00:12:08.640 --> 00:12:13.640
While we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen.

240
00:12:13.640 --> 00:12:20.640
For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

241
00:12:20.640 --> 00:12:21.640
Amen.

242
00:12:22.640 --> 00:12:24.640
Have you heard the term worldview?

243
00:12:24.640 --> 00:12:26.640
Different people have different worldviews.

244
00:12:26.640 --> 00:12:32.640
As a Māori, I have a Māori worldview on life, on the world.

245
00:12:32.640 --> 00:12:35.640
A Māori worldview in regards to spirituality.

246
00:12:35.640 --> 00:12:38.640
I have a Māori worldview in regards to Christianity.

247
00:12:38.640 --> 00:12:41.640
And I see Jesus with a korowai.

248
00:12:41.640 --> 00:12:45.640
You might see him with a beautiful, seamless robe, but I see a korowai.

249
00:12:45.640 --> 00:12:48.640
I see him not carrying a sword, but a taiaha.

250
00:12:48.640 --> 00:12:49.640
Okay.

251
00:12:49.640 --> 00:12:50.640
That's Katy Pai.

252
00:12:50.640 --> 00:12:51.640
He's not allowed to.

253
00:12:51.640 --> 00:12:52.640
He might as well be different.

254
00:12:52.640 --> 00:12:53.640
But that's my worldview.

255
00:12:53.640 --> 00:12:55.640
There's a Chinese worldview.

256
00:12:55.640 --> 00:12:59.640
It sees the world through a Chinese style, a Chinese lens.

257
00:12:59.640 --> 00:13:01.640
There's the American worldview.

258
00:13:01.640 --> 00:13:03.640
Everyone's got a different worldview.

259
00:13:03.640 --> 00:13:04.640
So the term worldview is not new.

260
00:13:04.640 --> 00:13:05.640
I didn't make it up.

261
00:13:05.640 --> 00:13:07.640
You hear the term worldview.

262
00:13:07.640 --> 00:13:12.640
The problem with the worldview is it sees the world from the world's perspective.

263
00:13:12.640 --> 00:13:16.640
It sees the world from humanity's perspective.

264
00:13:16.640 --> 00:13:20.640
And God doesn't want us to see the world from humanity's perspective.

265
00:13:20.640 --> 00:13:25.640
He doesn't want us seeing the world from the world's worldview.

266
00:13:25.640 --> 00:13:27.640
He wants us to see it with a heaven view.

267
00:13:27.640 --> 00:13:28.640
Okay.

268
00:13:28.640 --> 00:13:31.640
When Jesus came to the earth, he didn't have a Māori worldview.

269
00:13:31.640 --> 00:13:32.640
He didn't have an American worldview.

270
00:13:32.640 --> 00:13:34.640
He didn't have a Chinese worldview.

271
00:13:34.640 --> 00:13:36.640
He had a heaven worldview.

272
00:13:36.640 --> 00:13:39.640
Actually, he had a heaven view, not worldview.

273
00:13:39.640 --> 00:13:40.640
He had a heaven view.

274
00:13:40.640 --> 00:13:44.640
And so Paul's speaking here about having a heaven view.

275
00:13:44.640 --> 00:13:45.640
And he says,

276
00:13:45.640 --> 00:13:50.640
So that the outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day.

277
00:13:50.640 --> 00:13:53.640
It's being renewed.

278
00:13:53.640 --> 00:13:54.640
The inward man is being renewed.

279
00:13:54.640 --> 00:13:55.640
Outward man is perishing.

280
00:13:55.640 --> 00:13:57.640
Inward man is being renewed day by day.

281
00:13:57.640 --> 00:13:58.640
Hmm.

282
00:13:58.640 --> 00:14:00.640
Let me think on that.

283
00:14:00.640 --> 00:14:02.640
Being renewed.

284
00:14:02.640 --> 00:14:03.640
Renewed.

285
00:14:03.640 --> 00:14:07.640
The word renewed means to be reestablished or to restore.

286
00:14:07.640 --> 00:14:09.640
I looked it up in the dictionary.

287
00:14:10.640 --> 00:14:15.640
To renew means to be restored back to a relationship or restored back to a former place.

288
00:14:15.640 --> 00:14:19.640
And so I wonder why our inward man is being renewed, restored back.

289
00:14:19.640 --> 00:14:23.640
Because when God originally created us in Genesis 1-26,

290
00:14:23.640 --> 00:14:29.640
he created us with connection to him and that we had authority and dominion over all of the earth.

291
00:14:29.640 --> 00:14:32.640
And we lost that through sin, through Adam and Eve,

292
00:14:32.640 --> 00:14:35.640
but through being restored back to God in righteousness.

293
00:14:35.640 --> 00:14:36.640
Remember righteousness?

294
00:14:36.640 --> 00:14:39.640
Restored back through the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

295
00:14:39.640 --> 00:14:46.640
We are now being, our inward man is being renewed back to that former relationship that we had with God.

296
00:14:46.640 --> 00:14:52.640
Being renewed back to that dominion that God gave us over all the creeping things on the earth.

297
00:14:52.640 --> 00:14:57.640
So though the outward man is perishing, though our physical bodies are perishing,

298
00:14:57.640 --> 00:14:59.640
we're getting older outwardly.

299
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:03.440
It's the inward man, it's the spirit man that's getting renewed.

300
00:15:03.440 --> 00:15:08.120
As we keep our eyes on Jesus, as we follow Jesus, as we learn to understand His will

301
00:15:08.120 --> 00:15:14.920
through His Word, we begin to catch a different view of the world, a different view of circumstances.

302
00:15:14.920 --> 00:15:16.560
We catch a heaven view.

303
00:15:16.560 --> 00:15:20.520
And so the outward man's perishing, but your inward man's being renewed.

304
00:15:20.520 --> 00:15:22.320
Your inner man is being renewed.

305
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:29.400
And as we gaze upon God, gaze upon His ways, in 2 Corinthians 3, 19, I think it is, it's

306
00:15:29.400 --> 00:15:33.440
as we gaze upon Him, we are transformed into the same image.

307
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:35.000
What you look upon is what you become.

308
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:37.360
What you gaze upon actually has an effect on you.

309
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:43.600
As you gaze upon how God sees the world, as we gaze upon how God sees COVID-19, we begin

310
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:48.040
to see heavens, what heaven is saying, the inward man sees.

311
00:15:48.040 --> 00:15:53.640
So eye has not seen and ear has not heard, the Bible says, but God reveals these things

312
00:15:53.640 --> 00:15:55.280
to us by the spirit.

313
00:15:55.280 --> 00:16:00.040
And so your outward man is perishing, but your inward man is being renewed right now

314
00:16:00.040 --> 00:16:03.280
as you gaze upon God and follow the ways of God.

315
00:16:03.280 --> 00:16:04.280
So worldview.

316
00:16:04.280 --> 00:16:06.840
So what's the worldview of COVID-19?

317
00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:08.320
It's all bad.

318
00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:09.480
It's all bad.

319
00:16:09.480 --> 00:16:11.800
The world thinks it's working against them.

320
00:16:11.800 --> 00:16:14.580
The world thinks this is terrible, and it is terrible.

321
00:16:14.580 --> 00:16:17.080
And it is working against most people.

322
00:16:17.080 --> 00:16:18.360
That's with the worldview.

323
00:16:18.360 --> 00:16:23.400
But with the heaven view, this isn't working against us.

324
00:16:23.400 --> 00:16:29.200
The Bible says this temporary affliction, this light affliction is working for us.

325
00:16:29.200 --> 00:16:34.920
Every affliction, every test, every trial that comes your way and my way, whether the

326
00:16:34.920 --> 00:16:40.480
devil sent it or whether God sent it, every trial, test that you and I go through, guess

327
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:41.480
what?

328
00:16:41.480 --> 00:16:45.600
That affliction will work for us, say it's working for me.

329
00:16:45.600 --> 00:16:50.480
So COVID-19, believe it or not, it's working for you.

330
00:16:50.480 --> 00:16:52.000
It's working for me.

331
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:53.720
It's not working against me.

332
00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:55.320
It's not working against you.

333
00:16:55.320 --> 00:17:00.640
The Word of God says that these temporary momentary afflictions work for us.

334
00:17:00.640 --> 00:17:02.760
Now, how do we know that?

335
00:17:02.760 --> 00:17:03.960
How can I say that?

336
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:05.859
Because my inward man sees that.

337
00:17:05.859 --> 00:17:09.960
My outer man, if it looks at it, says, oh, it's terrible, there's no jobs, it's affecting

338
00:17:09.960 --> 00:17:13.040
the finances, it's this and this and this.

339
00:17:13.040 --> 00:17:14.940
That's the outward man, okay?

340
00:17:14.940 --> 00:17:16.920
That's the worldview.

341
00:17:16.920 --> 00:17:22.119
But the inward man, the spirit man, the warrior man, the man of Christ, the woman of Christ,

342
00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:27.200
it sees through spirit eyes, it sees with a heaven view, it says, hmm, this ain't working

343
00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:28.200
against me.

344
00:17:28.200 --> 00:17:29.200
This is going to work for me.

345
00:17:29.200 --> 00:17:30.200
How do we know this?

346
00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:36.920
Because Romans 8, 28, all things work for good to those who love the Lord and according

347
00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:42.760
to his purposes, that somehow God is going to turn this thing around for good and he's

348
00:17:42.760 --> 00:17:46.160
going to tie in with his purposes for our lives.

349
00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:47.160
That's how we know.

350
00:17:47.160 --> 00:17:55.280
We also know in Romans 8, I think, 31, if God is for us, who can be against us, amen?

351
00:17:55.280 --> 00:18:01.320
So we think of Joseph, Joseph, okay, Joseph in the Old Testament, he had a vision.

352
00:18:01.320 --> 00:18:08.720
God had a plan for his life, but for 13 years, he lives as a slave in a foreign land and

353
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:10.920
some of those years he's imprisoned.

354
00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:15.160
But if Joseph just had a worldview, an earth view, he would have been depressed, but he

355
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:16.160
didn't.

356
00:18:16.160 --> 00:18:17.160
He had a heaven view.

357
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:19.680
His spirit knew he was created for something greater.

358
00:18:19.680 --> 00:18:22.680
And so he had a heaven view, not a worldview.

359
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:25.680
And he saw in his spirit what he was called to.

360
00:18:25.680 --> 00:18:28.760
And he kept his eyes on that and God brought that to pass.

361
00:18:28.760 --> 00:18:33.440
And so people would look at Joseph's life and think, well, this is working against you,

362
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:34.440
mate.

363
00:18:34.440 --> 00:18:35.440
Far out.

364
00:18:35.440 --> 00:18:36.440
Your brother sold you as a slave.

365
00:18:36.440 --> 00:18:39.040
That's working against you, that affliction.

366
00:18:39.040 --> 00:18:44.080
And now you've got a job working for Potiphar and his wife frames you and you get put in

367
00:18:44.080 --> 00:18:46.440
jail for false charges.

368
00:18:46.440 --> 00:18:49.720
That's afflictions working against you, Joseph.

369
00:18:49.720 --> 00:18:53.360
And then Joseph interprets the dream of the butler and the baker.

370
00:18:53.360 --> 00:18:57.360
And he says to the butler, remember me when you talk to Pharaoh, I'm here unjustly.

371
00:18:57.360 --> 00:19:01.080
And so Joseph may be thinking, I'm going to get out of this place.

372
00:19:01.080 --> 00:19:03.240
But the butler forgets.

373
00:19:03.240 --> 00:19:07.920
And people say, oh, Joseph, that affliction is working against you, mate.

374
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:10.800
And then of course, we know Joseph gets set free from the prison.

375
00:19:10.800 --> 00:19:14.800
He goes from a prisoner to prime minister overnight.

376
00:19:14.800 --> 00:19:20.120
And then several years later, 17 years later, he says to his brothers, you meant this for

377
00:19:20.120 --> 00:19:22.800
evil, but God meant it for good.

378
00:19:22.800 --> 00:19:27.360
You see, Joseph learned that these afflictions weren't working against him, they were working

379
00:19:27.360 --> 00:19:28.720
for him.

380
00:19:28.720 --> 00:19:33.840
And when you come to a place of maturity, when you realize the afflictions that you

381
00:19:33.840 --> 00:19:38.080
go through, that they're not working against you, when God's in charge, when you belong

382
00:19:38.080 --> 00:19:42.080
to Jesus, when you're a child of God, Joseph was a child of God.

383
00:19:42.080 --> 00:19:45.680
And everyone with the worldview would have said, it's working against you, mate.

384
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:49.720
But Joseph had a heaven view, he's inside, nah, this is working for me.

385
00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:51.360
This is going to turn for my good.

386
00:19:51.360 --> 00:19:57.120
And we see, 17 years later, Joseph, he declares what he had in his heart.

387
00:19:57.120 --> 00:19:59.200
You meant for evil, but God turned it for good.

388
00:19:59.200 --> 00:20:00.000
See, this.

389
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:05.720
This affliction I went through from my brothers being sold as a slave to Egypt, you thought

390
00:20:05.720 --> 00:20:09.040
it was working against me, but God had it working for me.

391
00:20:09.040 --> 00:20:12.880
And when I was framed by Potiphar's wife and put in jail for false charges, you thought

392
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:16.320
it was working against me, but God was using it to work for me.

393
00:20:16.320 --> 00:20:20.360
And when the butler forgot to remind me to the Pharaoh, well, it wasn't time to interpret

394
00:20:20.360 --> 00:20:21.360
the dream.

395
00:20:21.360 --> 00:20:22.480
Pharaoh hadn't had his dream.

396
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:25.840
You thought it was working against me, but God was working it for me.

397
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:30.800
Fine, I want to tell you what you're going through right now, COVID-19, locked in, locked

398
00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:34.480
down, but not locked out from the purposes and the plans of God.

399
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:38.060
The world will look at you and say, well, this is working against us, isn't it?

400
00:20:38.060 --> 00:20:40.600
But we say, nah, this is working for us.

401
00:20:40.600 --> 00:20:41.600
Amen.

402
00:20:41.600 --> 00:20:47.200
This light momentarily affliction is working for us, a far more eternal, a greater eternal

403
00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:50.440
weight of glory.

404
00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:53.140
And so we go to the next verse, verse 18.

405
00:20:53.140 --> 00:20:56.620
So we look not on the things that are seen, but the things that are unseen.

406
00:20:56.620 --> 00:21:01.380
So the world's worldview can't see what you and I see, because eye has not seen and ear

407
00:21:01.380 --> 00:21:05.780
has not heard, and heart has not perceived the things God prepared for those who love

408
00:21:05.780 --> 00:21:06.780
Him.

409
00:21:06.780 --> 00:21:08.540
But He reveals these things by a spirit.

410
00:21:08.540 --> 00:21:12.980
The world cannot see your worldview because it's not born again with the Spirit of God.

411
00:21:12.980 --> 00:21:15.580
And so what you see, they can't see.

412
00:21:15.580 --> 00:21:19.500
Unfortunately, a lot of Christians can't see what you see either.

413
00:21:19.500 --> 00:21:21.540
They have got a worldview of COVID-19.

414
00:21:22.260 --> 00:21:25.700
They're just looking forward to the destruction that's coming.

415
00:21:25.700 --> 00:21:31.460
They're looking forward to the pain that's still coming, because they don't see what

416
00:21:31.460 --> 00:21:32.460
you see.

417
00:21:32.460 --> 00:21:34.060
And that's a shame.

418
00:21:34.060 --> 00:21:35.060
It's a shame.

419
00:21:35.060 --> 00:21:37.820
But God's people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

420
00:21:37.820 --> 00:21:43.900
And Hosea, the prophet, that's what Hosea, the prophet, Hosea, the prophet, it's chapter

421
00:21:43.900 --> 00:21:48.300
four, verse seven, said, my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

422
00:21:48.300 --> 00:21:51.340
And then we are not to say, because you have rejected knowledge, I'll reject you for being

423
00:21:52.140 --> 00:21:53.140
a priest before me forever.

424
00:21:53.140 --> 00:21:56.700
And so it wasn't lack of knowledge because there's no knowledge around.

425
00:21:56.700 --> 00:21:59.460
It's because God's people back then, they rejected knowledge.

426
00:21:59.460 --> 00:22:03.340
And unfortunately, there's never been a time in world history, I think, where there's more

427
00:22:03.340 --> 00:22:08.940
knowledge of God and more knowledge of the ways of God ever in any time in history.

428
00:22:08.940 --> 00:22:12.980
And yet, so much of God's knowledge is rejected by God's people.

429
00:22:12.980 --> 00:22:15.300
They don't know how to hear God's voice.

430
00:22:15.300 --> 00:22:16.900
They don't know what God's will is.

431
00:22:16.900 --> 00:22:21.180
And there's more written about God and how to find His will than any time in history.

432
00:22:22.020 --> 00:22:23.660
And so for lack of knowledge, God's people are destroyed.

433
00:22:23.660 --> 00:22:26.820
But when they reject knowledge, that brings destruction.

434
00:22:26.820 --> 00:22:27.820
But thank God you're not there.

435
00:22:27.820 --> 00:22:32.060
You know, Jesus said, you'll know the truth if you abide in my word and my word abides

436
00:22:32.060 --> 00:22:35.300
in you, you will know the truth and the truth will set you free.

437
00:22:35.300 --> 00:22:38.300
And so having knowledge of the truth, it won't set you free.

438
00:22:38.300 --> 00:22:40.180
It's the application of that knowledge.

439
00:22:40.180 --> 00:22:41.180
Amen.

440
00:22:41.180 --> 00:22:42.180
Matthew 7.

441
00:22:42.180 --> 00:22:43.620
So that's my message today, whanau.

442
00:22:43.620 --> 00:22:45.740
Do you have a worldview or a heaven view?

443
00:22:45.740 --> 00:22:49.260
Do you see COVID-19 working against you or for you?

444
00:22:49.260 --> 00:22:56.980
I tell you what, after this has passed, I believe that the unbeliever, I believe that

445
00:22:56.980 --> 00:23:00.740
the sinner, it's not PC talk apparently, but it's the way it is.

446
00:23:00.740 --> 00:23:06.100
I believe that the unbeliever is going to be more receptive to Jesus Christ than ever

447
00:23:06.100 --> 00:23:09.860
before because now they've heard about the end times.

448
00:23:09.860 --> 00:23:15.820
They've heard about earthquakes and wars and they've heard about the end times.

449
00:23:15.820 --> 00:23:17.260
But now they're tasting it.

450
00:23:17.260 --> 00:23:24.380
They're tasting how suddenly pestilence has shut the world down.

451
00:23:24.380 --> 00:23:28.900
And so I believe they're going to be more open to Jesus and we're not going to use it

452
00:23:28.900 --> 00:23:33.220
as a fear tactic to put fear into them, but as love.

453
00:23:33.220 --> 00:23:36.500
There's a way of sharing Jesus, there's a way of sharing this.

454
00:23:36.500 --> 00:23:43.020
And I would be telling unbelievers, listen, this is nothing what's happened.

455
00:23:43.020 --> 00:23:44.020
There's worse coming.

456
00:23:44.020 --> 00:23:49.340
Sorry to tell you, but there's worse coming, but remember, but it's working for us, not

457
00:23:49.340 --> 00:23:50.340
against us.

458
00:23:50.340 --> 00:23:55.100
You know, these are just some of the earth signs Jesus said would take place before he

459
00:23:55.100 --> 00:23:56.100
returns.

460
00:23:56.100 --> 00:24:04.180
Earthquakes, famines, wars, rumours of wars, kingdoms rising against each other, pestilences.

461
00:24:04.180 --> 00:24:05.180
These are the earth signs.

462
00:24:05.180 --> 00:24:08.620
There are earth signs and there are heaven signs yet to take place.

463
00:24:08.620 --> 00:24:12.500
And the heaven signs where there's a meteor going to fall out of the sky, smash into the

464
00:24:12.500 --> 00:24:17.340
sea, one third of the ocean, it's polluted.

465
00:24:17.340 --> 00:24:20.020
One third of the earth gets burnt up.

466
00:24:20.020 --> 00:24:22.660
The sun loses its light for a third of the day.

467
00:24:22.660 --> 00:24:24.260
These are the heaven signs yet to come.

468
00:24:24.260 --> 00:24:27.040
I mean, there's worse things to come into the earth yet.

469
00:24:27.040 --> 00:24:30.220
But through it all, the Father is calling out to his people.

470
00:24:30.220 --> 00:24:31.660
Through it all, it's love.

471
00:24:31.660 --> 00:24:36.260
See, the prophet Jonah was sent to Nineveh because God loved the people and wanted to

472
00:24:36.260 --> 00:24:37.420
save the people.

473
00:24:37.420 --> 00:24:40.220
He sends mercy over judgment.

474
00:24:40.220 --> 00:24:42.940
It's not that God wants to bring judgment, he wants to bring mercy.

475
00:24:42.940 --> 00:24:46.620
But it's through the judgments of God that come that mercy can stand there too.

476
00:24:46.620 --> 00:24:51.700
And people who cry out for Jesus, I mean, I should have been judged many years ago.

477
00:24:51.700 --> 00:24:56.180
But mercy came for me instead and I thank God for that.

478
00:24:56.180 --> 00:25:00.020
So I'm rambling, sorry about that, but I'll talk about that another day.

479
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:06.960
that I believe after this thing is lifted, that the unbeliever, that the sinner, is going to be

480
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:13.760
more open to Jesus than ever before. And look, the only safety in this world is Jesus. Noah got

481
00:25:13.760 --> 00:25:20.560
in an ark and he was lifted above the flood of destruction coming on the earth. Well, Jesus is

482
00:25:20.560 --> 00:25:25.520
our ark. It's only in Christ that he lifts us above the flood of destruction that's on the earth.

483
00:25:26.400 --> 00:25:32.640
Hallelujah. Amen. Okay, so I think that's what all I've got for you today Father,

484
00:25:32.640 --> 00:25:37.200
all I want to share today. Yeah, so you want to take a photo of that?

485
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:42.000
Take a photo. I'll send it through.

486
00:25:45.120 --> 00:25:52.640
Okay, now you might see here what I've written, times and season, Ecclesiastes 3.

487
00:25:52.640 --> 00:26:02.720
Ecclesiastes 3 verse 1, for there is a season for everything and a time for every purpose

488
00:26:03.760 --> 00:26:14.320
under heaven. And this COVID-19 is a season, it's a time, and through this season there's a purpose.

489
00:26:15.040 --> 00:26:20.240
And I'm going to, well, I'll share some of this on Sunday. I'm going to share

490
00:26:20.800 --> 00:26:26.320
that the first wave that's come through this demon that's on the earth is fear.

491
00:26:27.600 --> 00:26:33.120
So fear has swept the earth. In fact, fear is doing more damage than the flippant disease itself

492
00:26:33.120 --> 00:26:37.920
actually. We're walking around Gisborne, standing away from each other, but there's

493
00:26:38.560 --> 00:26:45.520
no bloomin' COVID-19 in Gisborne. There's one person with it, but he shipped it in from the

494
00:26:45.520 --> 00:26:52.240
States, and he's in hospital. There's no one in the city with coronavirus, no one. Yet everyone's

495
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:58.720
standing apart. Okay, well, do that, but it's not here. And so when it's lifted, when whatever's

496
00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:05.200
lifted, people will be walking together, but it's not even here now. And I'm not against the

497
00:27:05.200 --> 00:27:10.000
government, it's a good thing what they're doing and so forth. I'm all for that, it's all good.

498
00:27:10.080 --> 00:27:15.680
So you've got to kill it, you've got to destroy it. And good news today is that there are more

499
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:22.400
people recovering from coronavirus than catching it. So the balance has turned. It's Passover

500
00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:27.760
today, the balance has turned. This is where our prophets have been saying, and I feel also that

501
00:27:27.760 --> 00:27:32.800
this thing is going to start turning and start decreasing. And after Easter, we'll see even more.

502
00:27:34.080 --> 00:27:39.760
But there's seasons, and so know that there's a wave of fear sweeping across the earth. But as I

503
00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:44.400
said, what the devil means for evil, God turns for good. What the devil's trying to use to work

504
00:27:44.400 --> 00:27:48.800
against us is going to be working for us. But you've got to have ears to hear, eyes to see,

505
00:27:48.800 --> 00:27:54.560
and a heart to perceive these things. And so I'm just sharing these things on empathy with you,

506
00:27:54.560 --> 00:28:00.880
with you whānau, because I believe we need to get prepared and get ready for the greatest revival,

507
00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:06.720
the greatest harvest that the world has ever seen. Hallelujah. So it's my honour to train you,

508
00:28:06.720 --> 00:28:12.160
to pray with you, to equip you, to empower you, to deploy you, and to just share with

509
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:18.320
you what I have so that we can all be more effective for Jesus. Amen. More fruitful for

510
00:28:18.320 --> 00:28:23.760
the King. I'm going to pray for you now. Are you ready? Those who need healing in your body,

511
00:28:24.800 --> 00:28:30.560
I think there's over 60 people now have received healings. It's funny, people are catching

512
00:28:30.560 --> 00:28:36.800
coronavirus. It's contagious. It makes them sick. But people are also catching Jesus,

513
00:28:36.800 --> 00:28:42.560
as He's contagious and He's making them well. That's so cool, eh? So this Jesus that's making

514
00:28:42.560 --> 00:28:49.760
people well, I want to pray for you right now. He wants to make you well. Thank you, Jesus.

515
00:28:51.840 --> 00:28:56.960
This isn't a little prayer blessing. This is divine power flows out of my body. When I pray,

516
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:01.040
divine power, you can't see it. But if you can see in the Spirit, you see rays of light coming

517
00:29:01.040 --> 00:29:06.640
out of the pores of my skin, rays of light coming out of the pores of my hand. And that's what

518
00:29:06.640 --> 00:29:12.160
demons see. When they see me, they see light emitting out of me, literally. But when germs

519
00:29:12.160 --> 00:29:16.640
see it, they touch it, they die in that light. They die in that, because the law of the Spirit

520
00:29:16.640 --> 00:29:23.120
of Life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death. And so when germs touch me,

521
00:29:23.120 --> 00:29:27.760
I don't catch them. They catch me. They catch Jesus. The same Spirit that rose Jesus from the

522
00:29:27.760 --> 00:29:33.280
dead is what dwells in my body and dwells in my mortal flesh. And it flows out through the pores

523
00:29:33.280 --> 00:29:39.600
of my skin, and it flows out by faith. People who reach out and touch me in India, many times as

524
00:29:39.600 --> 00:29:44.880
they touch me, as I walk through the crowd, they're instantly healed. They start screaming

525
00:29:44.880 --> 00:29:49.440
and yelling because the power of God goes through them, and they're healed. Those who've

526
00:29:49.520 --> 00:29:54.160
traveled with me to India have seen it many times. So when I pray, something's going to happen

527
00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:58.720
from this end. If you're not believing on your end, nothing's going to happen on your end,

528
00:29:58.720 --> 00:29:59.920
because these signs follow those.

529
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.480
who believe. So this isn't just some little prayer blessing for you. This is tapu. This is sacred. So

530
00:30:06.480 --> 00:30:14.880
when I do a karakia, when I pray for your healing, I'm releasing my best friend, Te Wairua Tapu,

531
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:21.280
Holy Spirit. And so show honor, show humility, and show hunger if you really want prayer. I'm

532
00:30:21.280 --> 00:30:26.080
not just praying for a little blessing. I'm praying to release to you, your deliverance

533
00:30:26.080 --> 00:30:31.840
and your healing from terminal situations, from things that doctors have diagnosed and

534
00:30:31.840 --> 00:30:38.320
prognosed over you. So this is holy, okay? I just felt... Don't take these karakia,

535
00:30:38.320 --> 00:30:42.640
don't take these sessions for granted, okay? Don't let familiarity come in.

536
00:30:43.280 --> 00:30:46.640
Say, oh yeah, it's just another prayer. It's not just another prayer. This is the difference

537
00:30:46.640 --> 00:30:53.520
between life and death. I went down to... I think I might have told you that story, but

538
00:30:53.520 --> 00:30:59.120
let me tell you some of the stories about the miracles I see and seen. Well, I remember when

539
00:30:59.120 --> 00:31:07.200
I first came to Tauranga, when I came up here, I was out in the back at the way through Ruakoturi

540
00:31:08.240 --> 00:31:16.560
into the Tuhoe country, Urewera. And this Ringatu friend of mine, Ringatu priest, ordained priest,

541
00:31:16.560 --> 00:31:22.160
and a brother in Christ, he took me to the house of this lady who had a pronounced limp. And when

542
00:31:22.160 --> 00:31:34.320
she walked, she walked like this. And so she was open for karakia, for prayer. And so I didn't

543
00:31:34.320 --> 00:31:38.000
tell her, I didn't say, you're healed. I didn't lay hands. I didn't, in the traditional sense.

544
00:31:38.000 --> 00:31:42.240
I said to her, come outside. And she limped out. She limped outside. I said,

545
00:31:42.240 --> 00:31:46.000
see your clothesline there? I said, sweetheart, when you walk to your clothesline, I want you

546
00:31:46.000 --> 00:31:50.640
to walk to it. When you get to your clothesline, turn around to come back. When you turn around

547
00:31:50.640 --> 00:31:57.360
to come back, Jesus will heal you. And so off she limps, I said in the name of Jesus. How do

548
00:31:57.360 --> 00:32:02.400
I know this? Because faith is an action. And like I say, eventually I will teach about how to move

549
00:32:02.400 --> 00:32:06.880
in this stuff. But I don't feel to do that right now. I just feel to do some basic foundational

550
00:32:06.880 --> 00:32:14.480
teaching. So off she limps, she limps down towards her clothesline. This is witnessed by two people,

551
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:20.480
by my friend, the Ringatu minister, someone else, and myself, and the lad. As she got to the

552
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:25.920
clothesline, she turned. And as she turned, the power of God came upon her, and she just straightened

553
00:32:25.920 --> 00:32:31.680
up, and she walked back normally. And she walked like that for several years after that, before

554
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:38.320
Jesus took her home. This power, it's not me. I thank God I can't heal. I don't have to heal.

555
00:32:38.320 --> 00:32:42.880
I don't have to huff and puff and make it happen. It's a gift that He's given me. The gift of

556
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:46.720
healings and the working of miracles, it's a gift He gave. It's Holy Spirit through me.

557
00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:53.920
But it can only be released when there's an atmosphere of honor, humility, and hunger.

558
00:32:53.920 --> 00:32:59.120
That's when He's released. And I can't minister to her if I don't feel that. And I just felt I

559
00:32:59.120 --> 00:33:05.440
need to put that out there right now. Thank you, Jesus. There's another time I went up to the

560
00:33:05.440 --> 00:33:10.640
hospital. I was run up by one of the sisters in our church. And she said, would you go to the

561
00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:15.040
hospital? My sister is on a death bed. They don't expect her to make it through the night.

562
00:33:15.680 --> 00:33:20.640
And so I went up to the hospital. On the way to the hospital, Jesus said, she will not die,

563
00:33:20.640 --> 00:33:26.160
she will live. And He said to me, when you walk into the hospital, she's in the ICU,

564
00:33:26.160 --> 00:33:33.600
hooked up to the life support machine, had an oxygen mask on her, and she's in a coma.

565
00:33:34.320 --> 00:33:39.600
And Jesus, I saw in advance what I was going to do. I was going to walk in. I was going to grab

566
00:33:39.600 --> 00:33:44.720
her ankles, and the power of God, the electricity of God would go through my hands into her ankles

567
00:33:44.720 --> 00:33:50.800
and would break her back out of her death sleep. And Jesus said, she will live, she will not die.

568
00:33:50.800 --> 00:33:57.680
And so I was so excited. I parked the car in the hospital, in the car park, and boom, boom, boom,

569
00:33:57.680 --> 00:34:03.760
boom, boom, up into ICU, press the button, get in. And it's very quiet. It's nighttime. And all

570
00:34:03.760 --> 00:34:08.960
the whanau around her bed, they ever told us her last night, she won't survive. So they're

571
00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:15.440
all weeping and wailing, obviously, understandably. So I had to be sensitive to the whanau. And so I

572
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:22.560
walked in and just said, kia ora to little Mihi, and said, I'm just going to have a karakia for

573
00:34:22.560 --> 00:34:30.159
mama. Is that okay? They said, oh, they're weeping. And so I did what I saw Jesus show me to do. I

574
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:35.920
grabbed her ankles. Man, it's like 10,000 volts went through her. Now know that this lady's been

575
00:34:36.000 --> 00:34:41.120
sort of in a coma for days. She's got the oxygen mask and she's lying back. When I touched her

576
00:34:41.120 --> 00:34:48.320
ankles, she just went and pulled off oxygen mask. And she said, Pastor Norm, how are you?

577
00:34:49.040 --> 00:34:53.760
That's what she said. And I said, I'm great. How are you? She said, I'm fine. And all the

578
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:59.840
whanau members around her bed are all freaking out. The machine that she's hooked up onto.

579
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:03.680
It was going, dude, dude, but suddenly it was going, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude, dude.

580
00:35:03.680 --> 00:35:08.320
So the nurses and the doctors are out and they're turning switches and whatever, doing their thing

581
00:35:08.320 --> 00:35:14.320
and she's, Kate, Kate Te Pae, she's just there just talking and the whānau are looking at her

582
00:35:14.320 --> 00:35:18.320
and I says, how are you feeling? She said, I'm feeling good. I said, well, I tell you what,

583
00:35:18.320 --> 00:35:22.560
are you hungry? She said, hmm. I said, you have a good sleep. You're going to have a good moi

584
00:35:22.560 --> 00:35:27.360
and then when you wake up, you're going to have a good kai and then you'll be out of this place.

585
00:35:27.360 --> 00:35:32.400
She said, thank you. Thank you. I said to the whānau, this is Jesus touching your mum.

586
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:37.920
Jesus loves your mum and this is the power of Jesus. It's not me. This is Ihu. And so I said,

587
00:35:38.800 --> 00:35:43.840
goodbye, walked out. Guess what? That night she had a great sleep. She woke up in the morning,

588
00:35:43.840 --> 00:35:49.440
had a good kai. They discharge, they put her out of the ICU, put her into the normal ward

589
00:35:49.440 --> 00:35:54.320
and within a, within the week she was discharged at a hospital. I'm talking about a power that

590
00:35:54.320 --> 00:35:58.080
comes from another world. I'm talking about a power that can bring the dead back to life.

591
00:35:58.080 --> 00:36:04.800
I'm talking about a power that can dissolve cancer cells and cause bloodstreams that have

592
00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:10.240
been clogged up to flow again. I'm talking about the same power that flowed out of Jesus

593
00:36:10.800 --> 00:36:16.480
into the lepers and cleansed them. The power of Jesus that went to a woman who had a 12 year

594
00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:20.720
blood issue and healed her and she felt in her body, she was healed of the plague. I'm talking

595
00:36:20.720 --> 00:36:26.160
about that power. So please honour that power now, as you lean forward into the presence of Jesus,

596
00:36:26.160 --> 00:36:31.280
show honour to this power, show respect and humility and show hunger. If you're hungry for

597
00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:36.880
this, then lean forward to the presence of Jesus on the count of three. Tahi rua toru. Lean now,

598
00:36:36.880 --> 00:36:42.320
lean now, lean now into the presence of Jesus. Lord, I just bring your sons and your daughters

599
00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:48.480
into your presence. I bring your precious children before you and I ask you pour out

600
00:36:48.480 --> 00:36:49.680
your glorious presence.

601
00:36:54.240 --> 00:36:59.360
We welcome your Holy Spirit. We welcome your Holy Spirit.

602
00:37:00.560 --> 00:37:04.640
Welcome your Holy Spirit. Welcome your Holy Spirit.

603
00:37:19.440 --> 00:37:27.120
Welcome. Welcome. There's a healing presence going through bodies right now.

604
00:37:27.120 --> 00:37:33.200
Too many words of knowledge to speak. Too many conditions to speak. But you catch it.

605
00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:42.000
You catch it right now. You catch the healing presence right now. Hallelujah. And make sure

606
00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:48.240
you give back that report. Bring back the report. Message me and let me know what Jesus just did to

607
00:37:48.240 --> 00:37:51.920
you. Thank you, Father. Okay, fine. I'll see you tomorrow morning. God bless.
