WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:29.520 Hey, I am very excited to bring this word for you today. 2 00:00:29.520 --> 00:00:34.800 I'm speaking on systemic revival, I've got two sessions, I'm going to speak on systemic 3 00:00:34.800 --> 00:00:35.800 revival. 4 00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:40.000 So a little recap for you, some of you were here last year, some of you weren't, but a 5 00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:45.400 little recap for those that were, last year I spoke on unprecedented revival and raise 6 00:00:45.400 --> 00:00:46.400 up an army. 7 00:00:46.400 --> 00:00:51.280 If you haven't heard those messages, you can get them in last year's teaching. 8 00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:56.960 The focus of unprecedented revival was that we are now in a season of a viral outbreak 9 00:00:56.960 --> 00:01:02.320 of sonship, all over the planet, it's just breaking out virally like never before, it's 10 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.200 totally unprecedented. 11 00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:09.640 The sons are arising into the fullness of Christ, and when it talks about the unveiling 12 00:01:09.640 --> 00:01:18.080 of the sons of God, I sometimes think, hmm, if it needs to be unveiled or revealed, then 13 00:01:18.080 --> 00:01:20.600 what's covering it? 14 00:01:20.600 --> 00:01:23.000 What's covering, what's hiding our sonship? 15 00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:24.960 That's exactly what I spoke of before. 16 00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:28.520 It's just the fact that you've been falsely defined by something, you're already as son 17 00:01:28.520 --> 00:01:30.960 as a son can be. 18 00:01:30.960 --> 00:01:37.200 You're already as son as a son can be, and what type of time frame has God set on you 19 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:40.200 being fully manifested in your sonship? 20 00:01:40.200 --> 00:01:45.720 Just as long as it'll take you to agree with Him that that's already who you are. 21 00:01:45.720 --> 00:01:51.720 Just as long as it'll take you to agree with Him that that is already who you are. 22 00:01:51.720 --> 00:01:56.200 So the sons are arising into the fullness of Christ, and NZ, Aotearoa New Zealand is 23 00:01:56.200 --> 00:02:03.080 a prototype nation, a catalyst nation, a forerunner nation of unprecedented revival in the year. 24 00:02:03.080 --> 00:02:09.960 This year, I'm going to speak about systemic revival, not unprecedented revival, systemic 25 00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:14.200 revival is unprecedented, but there's another angle on it. 26 00:02:14.200 --> 00:02:18.280 There'll be two messages, both focused on systemic revival, the burning heart of the 27 00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:24.400 Father, and secrets of a giant's lair. 28 00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:26.920 I should have organized some epic music there. 29 00:02:26.920 --> 00:02:31.700 Secrets of a giant's lair. 30 00:02:31.700 --> 00:02:35.840 The burning heart of the Father. 31 00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:36.840 Burning heart of the Father. 32 00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:41.920 I just want you just to look at that picture for a moment, there's going to be an impartation 33 00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:44.040 today of the burning heart of the Father. 34 00:02:44.040 --> 00:02:48.240 It's not just a message, this is living and active, it's alive, there's an impartation, 35 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:50.600 it's in the atmosphere, it's in the room. 36 00:02:50.600 --> 00:02:56.200 This is like, you guys don't realize it, but you're in my prayer room. 37 00:02:56.200 --> 00:02:57.200 This is my prayer room. 38 00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:04.600 I've spent thousands of hours in this place with the Lord, and before you came here early 39 00:03:04.600 --> 00:03:10.640 in the morning, I've laid hands on every single seat in the building to release an impartation 40 00:03:10.640 --> 00:03:15.520 of the fire of the Father's heart already, and I already know that this impartation of 41 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:19.840 the burning heart of the Father fills this entire building. 42 00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:24.880 It's already top to bottom, it's already front to back, it's already burning from the inside 43 00:03:24.880 --> 00:03:30.680 to the outside, from the outside to the inside, you're already, you're like, I can see it. 44 00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:31.680 I can see it. 45 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.080 It's like we're already in the burning heart of the Father. 46 00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:40.320 And we could just, I'm still going to preach my message, but there's a present reality 47 00:03:40.320 --> 00:03:41.320 that I'm preaching on. 48 00:03:41.320 --> 00:03:44.640 I'm not preaching on something that doesn't exist, I'm not trying to stir up an anointing 49 00:03:44.640 --> 00:03:46.760 to bring something into the room that's not here. 50 00:03:46.760 --> 00:03:52.200 It's already here in fullness, and you could actually just lean in, and you could actually, 51 00:03:52.200 --> 00:03:58.600 you could kind of, in a way, just your hunger could actually skip to the boom at the end. 52 00:03:58.600 --> 00:04:02.380 If you wanted to right now, you could just lean in, because this picture here, the burning 53 00:04:02.380 --> 00:04:07.320 heart of the Father, that's where this message ends, and it's the whole emphasis of it. 54 00:04:07.320 --> 00:04:12.600 There's more as it goes, but whoa, just why not just lean in right now, just lean in right 55 00:04:12.600 --> 00:04:13.600 now. 56 00:04:13.600 --> 00:04:16.880 I can already just see it in my mind's eye. 57 00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:19.200 Everything is already on fire. 58 00:04:19.200 --> 00:04:21.440 Everything is already burning. 59 00:04:21.440 --> 00:04:24.000 Everything is already burning in this place. 60 00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:36.280 Why don't you lay your hand on someone close to you, and just release, just make a declaration 61 00:04:36.280 --> 00:04:42.320 over them that they're receiving today, you're receiving an impartation of the burning heart 62 00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:43.320 of the Father. 63 00:04:43.320 --> 00:04:49.040 You're receiving an impartation of the burning heart of the Father in Jesus' name. 64 00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:56.920 Whoa, I just prophesy in the name of Jesus that fire from heaven is erupting, exploding, 65 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.800 spontaneous combustions in Jesus' name. 66 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:03.140 right through this place, right through every heart, 67 00:05:03.140 --> 00:05:04.720 right through every spirit. 68 00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.980 Lord, an impartation directly from your heart to our hearts, 69 00:05:08.980 --> 00:05:11.560 from your burning eyes to our burning eyes, 70 00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:14.040 from your burning heart into our burning hearts, 71 00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:17.120 from your burning spirit into our burning spirits, 72 00:05:17.120 --> 00:05:18.580 in Jesus' name. 73 00:05:18.580 --> 00:05:20.640 Ho, ho, ho, ho. 74 00:05:20.640 --> 00:05:21.480 Woo! 75 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:23.720 Ho,

Just stand up, stand up, and just stand someone else 82 00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:40.960 and just say ma. 83 00:05:47.080 --> 00:05:50.960 Ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, ma, papa, ma. 84 00:05:50.960 -->

straight from the throne of God. 90 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:19.360 Whoa, release that fire straight from the throne. 91 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:20.200 Shoo! 92 00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:24.520 Whoa! 93

00:06:34.840 --> 00:06:36.640 the doctors say it's good for you. 97 00:06:36.640 --> 00:06:39.640 Just look around at someone and just have a little laugh. 98 00:06:39.640 --> 00:06:42.000 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. 99 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:44.840 Even if it's a fake laugh, it's good for you. 100 00:06:44.840 --> 00:06:46.920 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. 101 00:06:46.920 --> 00:06:48.400 Actually gonna cause, um, 102 00:06:50.120 --> 00:06:51.880 some people pay a lot of money for drugs 103 00:06:51.880 --> 00:06:55.360 that produce the exact same effect of just laughing. 104 00:06:55.360 --> 00:06:57.280 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. 105 00:06:59.720 --> 00:07:00.640 But it's good to laugh 106 00:07:00.640 --> 00:07:03.760 because the joy of the Lord is our strength. 107 00:07:03.760 --> 00:07:06.720 It's like joy's a vitamin that we can't do without. 108 00:07:09.840 --> 00:07:11.880 So on that recap, 109 00:07:11.880 --> 00:07:14.400 engaging with the broken heart of the Father. 110 00:07:16.200 --> 00:07:18.080 When we engage with the broken heart of the Father, 111 00:07:18.080 --> 00:07:21.160 it gives significance to the individual. 112 00:07:22.200 --> 00:07:25.320 That whole Heidi Baker's message, stop for the one, 113 00:07:25.320 --> 00:07:26.880 the broken heart of the Father 114 00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:30.120 gives so much significance to the individual. 115 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:32.640 I think you guys are onto it already, 116 00:07:32.640 --> 00:07:34.040 but you're just turning me down a bit. 117 00:07:34.040 --> 00:07:35.040 Is that right, Mike? 118 00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:37.200 Beautiful. 119 00:07:38.320 --> 00:07:40.720 It gives significance to the cause. 120 00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:43.440 And we're like, we've got a cause to build a building 121 00:07:43.440 --> 00:07:45.480 in a random country in Tajikistan. 122 00:07:45.480 --> 00:07:48.000 Like, most people go, where is that? 123 00:07:49.160 --> 00:07:50.720 Where is Tajikistan? 124 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:52.520 Near Afghanistan, Pakistan. 125 00:07:52.520 --> 00:07:54.040 New Zealand, Antarctica. 126 00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:55.200 Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. 127 00:07:55.200 --> 00:07:57.160 If you go the wrong way, yeah. 128 00:07:57.160 --> 00:07:58.400 If you go the wrong way. 129 00:08:03.080 --> 00:08:05.760 But significance of the broken heart of the Father 130 00:08:05.760 --> 00:08:07.680 on the fact that we can actually do something 131 00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:12.680 that ends generational brokenness. 132 00:08:13.960 --> 00:08:17.280 We can do that, like for that one girl. 133 00:08:18.440 --> 00:08:19.800 It gives significance to the cause, 134 00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:20.720 the broken heart of the Father. 135 00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:23.760 When you feel his brokenness for the Father, 136 00:08:23.760 --> 00:08:28.320 when you realize that he looks at the least of these 137 00:08:28.320 --> 00:08:30.160 as though they are his own. 138 00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:33.440 And Jesus, when he speaks of the least of these, 139 00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:35.480 he has the same value for the least of these, 140 00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.080 not as his own children, but as his own self. 141 00:08:39.000 --> 00:08:40.480 Whatever you've done for the least of these, 142 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:41.520 you've done for me. 143 00:08:42.440 --> 00:08:43.880 And so the broken heart of the Father, 144 00:08:43.880 --> 00:08:46.240 and go, whoa, we see the value that he places 145 00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:49.480 on every individual, gives so much significance 146 00:08:49.480 --> 00:08:50.320 to the cause. 147 00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:51.680 Whoa, come on. 148 00:08:51.680 --> 00:08:54.840 So when you get a baptism in the broken heart 149 00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:56.360 of the Father, when you get fully immersed 150 00:08:56.360 --> 00:08:58.480 in the broken heart of the Father, 151 00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:01.200 oh, that just is gonna be a baptism 152 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:05.280 and inspiration, motivation, and passion through and through. 153 00:09:05.280 --> 00:09:07.560 And the more you understand the message 154 00:09:07.560 --> 00:09:10.720 that is communicated, the more you understand 155 00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:12.920 what the broken heart wants to actually do in you, 156 00:09:12.920 --> 00:09:14.960 the more you come out just baptized 157 00:09:14.960 --> 00:09:16.840 in significance and passion. 158 00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:20.120 And so every action that you engage in, 159 00:09:20.920 --> 00:09:22.400 you punch with passion, 160 00:09:22.400 --> 00:09:24.320 and you'll get 10 times the result. 161 00:09:25.760 --> 00:09:26.880 So you're engaging with the broken heart 162 00:09:26.880 --> 00:09:28.680 of the Father, it's just phenomenal. 163 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.200 I shared last year, I shared this vision 164 00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:36.480 that I'd had earlier last year about, 165 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:38.120 I saw myself in this vision, 166 00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.160 stabbed this sword into the ground. 167 00:09:41.760 --> 00:09:43.320 But then as the vision zoomed out, 168 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:44.480 I realized it wasn't the ground 169 00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:46.480 that I'd stabbed the sword into, 170 00:09:46.480 --> 00:09:49.560 it was actually the heart of the Father. 171 00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:53.800 And the part, the chamber of the heart 172 00:09:53.800 --> 00:09:55.320 that that sword went into, 173 00:09:55.320 --> 00:09:57.360 was the chamber of his broken heart. 174 00:09:57.360 --> 00:09:59.760 And that sword began to resonate. 175 00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.360 the same frequency of the broken heart of the Father. 176 00:10:04.360 --> 00:10:06.920 I began to resonate with that same frequency, 177 00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:09.680 and not just resonate it, I began to transmit it, 178 00:10:09.680 --> 00:10:11.240 began to be a transmitter, 179 00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.760 transmitting the frequency of the broken heart of the Father 180 00:10:14.760 --> 00:10:17.560 so that I could actually stand as an advocate 181 00:10:17.560 --> 00:10:19.160 for the broken heart of the Father, 182 00:10:19.160 --> 00:10:21.360 and when you stand as an advocate 183 00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:22.880 for the broken heart of the Father, 184 00:10:22.880 --> 00:10:25.680 you stand as an advocate for the least of these, 185 00:10:25.680 --> 00:10:29.560 you stand as an advocate for those who have no voice, 186 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:32.040 so you get to stand before people and go, 187 00:10:32.040 --> 00:10:34.000 hey, you know what, let's do something, 188 00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:35.760 so when you stand as an advocate, 189 00:10:35.760 --> 00:10:38.760 there's a desired outcome from that, 190 00:10:38.760 --> 00:10:42.280 you don't stand as an advocate hoping nothing will happen 191 00:10:42.280 --> 00:10:44.080 when you stand as an advocate before people, 192 00:10:44.080 --> 00:10:46.680 when you stand as an advocate before people, 193 00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:49.520 as an advocate for the broken heart of the Father, 194 00:10:49.520 --> 00:10:52.400 you're desiring radical action to come out of those 195 00:10:52.400 --> 00:10:53.800 that you're standing before, 196 00:10:53.800 --> 00:10:56.480 because you're not just pleading on a selfish cause, 197 00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.240 you're pleading on behalf of the least of these, 198 00:10:58.240 --> 00:10:59.920 you're pleading on behalf of those 199 00:10:59.920 --> 00:11:04.920 who are in extreme danger or extreme poverty, 200 00:11:06.400 --> 00:11:10.200 and you're standing as an advocate with extreme love, 201 00:11:11.280 --> 00:11:13.600 because when you stand as an advocate 202 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:15.080 for the broken heart of the Father, 203 00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:18.200 you're not just standing as an advocate 204 00:11:18.200 --> 00:11:20.880 for someone you're disconnected from, 205 00:11:20.880 --> 00:11:23.840 you feel a huge connection, 206 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:26.080 just as Jesus felt a huge connection 207 00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:27.960 when he said the least of these, 208 00:11:28.640 --> 00:11:31.360 he felt the same value that he had for his very self, 209 00:11:31.360 --> 00:11:33.040 so to the degree that we engage 210 00:11:33.040 --> 00:11:34.200 with that broken heart of the Father, 211 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:37.080 and to the degree that we stand as an advocate 212 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:39.800 for the broken heart of the Father, 213 00:11:39.800 --> 00:11:41.280 we plead for the least of these 214 00:11:41.280 --> 00:11:42.760 as though they were ourselves, 215 00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:46.040 and that's something that the Lord's rising up in us, 216 00:11:46.040 --> 00:11:47.640 but the more we get baptised 217 00:11:47.640 --> 00:11:49.080 in the broken heart of the Father, 218 00:11:49.080 --> 00:11:50.920 the more that we plead, 219 00:11:50.920 --> 00:11:52.960 the more that we advocate from ourselves, 220 00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:55.720 from one another, from every resource at our disposal, 221 00:11:55.720 --> 00:11:58.120 that every resource at our disposal 222 00:11:58.120 --> 00:12:01.560 could be utilised to silence the sounds of horror 223 00:12:01.560 --> 00:12:03.160 that rise before the throne, 224 00:12:03.160 --> 00:12:08.160 and to minister to the victims of the oppression of chaos, 225 00:12:10.760 --> 00:12:12.240 the focus of the broken heart of the Father 226 00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:14.760 is the victims of oppression, 227 00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:19.400 but engaging with the burning heart of the Father 228 00:12:19.400 --> 00:12:21.280 is slightly different, 229 00:12:21.280 --> 00:12:23.160 I encourage engaging with everything 230 00:12:23.160 --> 00:12:25.640 that's got to do with the Father, 231 00:12:26.520 --> 00:12:28.680 don't pick and choose, just have everything, 232 00:12:29.800 --> 00:12:31.520 this gives vision, strategies, 233 00:12:31.520 --> 00:12:33.480 blueprints and action plans, 234 00:12:35.280 --> 00:12:38.280 the focus is destroying the systems 235 00:12:38.280 --> 00:12:39.840 that oppress people, 236 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:42.720 and establishing systems 237 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:45.240 that cause people and communities to thrive, 238 00:12:46.920 --> 00:12:50.040 the focus is systemic revival, 239 00:12:50.040 --> 00:12:52.600 the focus is not just getting people into heaven, 240 00:12:53.560 --> 00:12:55.160 but bringing heaven to earth, 241 00:12:56.640 --> 00:13:01.640 so Bangkok 2007, I shared this as well, 242 00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:04.280 this is one of the first times 243 00:13:04.280 --> 00:13:07.040 that my heart really got broken 244 00:13:07.040 --> 00:13:09.440 for the things that broke the Father's heart, 245 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:11.600 I was there with a team, 246 00:13:11.600 --> 00:13:12.440 I'd taken a team, 247 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:16.720 we were ministering with a ministry called Nightlight 248 00:13:16.720 --> 00:13:18.440 on the streets in Bangkok, 249 00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:22.800 and we just went through the streets, 250 00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:25.080 and I was like, oh my gosh, 251 00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:28.880 this is crazy seeing what was unfolding around us, 252 00:13:28.880 --> 00:13:30.880 similar time, we were in another, 253 00:13:31.760 --> 00:13:33.360 it was on the same trip, 254 00:13:33.360 --> 00:13:36.440 we went to another city that borders Myanmar, 255 00:13:36.440 --> 00:13:38.160 and that city is called Mae Sot, 256 00:13:38.160 --> 00:13:39.120 and when we got to that, 257 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:41.760 the same day that we got into the Mae Sot area, 258 00:13:41.760 --> 00:13:44.320 a gang went around kidnapping kids, 259 00:13:44.320 --> 00:13:45.840 I think they kidnapped, 260 00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:47.080 I'm not sure exactly, 261 00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:48.200 it was like a decade ago, 262 00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:50.400 but I think it was about 15 kids that they kidnapped, 263 00:13:50.400 --> 00:13:52.200 and one of them was a little boy, 264 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:53.760 and I don't know what had happened, 265 00:13:53.760 --> 00:13:56.840 but they ended up cutting out his heart, 266 00:13:56.840 --> 00:13:59.400 and taking his heart for the organ trade, 267 00:13:59.400 --> 00:14:00.800 just leaving the body there, 268 00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:03.480 and I was like, what the heck, 269 00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:05.240 but then the people where I were, 270 00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:06.200 they were saying, oh yeah, 271 00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:08.440 you can actually buy kids on the border here 272 00:14:08.440 --> 00:14:11.000 for like 10 bucks, 273 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:12.640 and I'm like, huh? 274 00:14:12.640 --> 00:14:13.720 And they're like, oh yeah, 275 00:14:13.720 --> 00:14:15.840 and one of the reasons is because Myanmar, 276 00:14:15.840 --> 00:14:17.840 there's ethnic cleansing, 277 00:14:17.840 --> 00:14:19.840 like the government itself, 278 00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:21.240 we actually just had one of our students 279 00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:23.000 from revival school here, 280 00:14:23.000 --> 00:14:25.040 we brought him over from Myanmar, 281 00:14:25.040 --> 00:14:26.120 just an awesome thing for us 282 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:27.120 to be able to sell into as well, 283 00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:28.400 sell into Myanmar, 284 00:14:28.400 --> 00:14:30.200 so we paid for this guy to come out, 285 00:14:30.200 --> 00:14:31.200 gave him full scholarship, 286 00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:33.400 covered all his costs while he was here, 287 00:14:33.400 --> 00:14:35.120 to invest in that nation, 288 00:14:35.120 --> 00:14:36.800 but that nation from the top down, 289 00:14:36.800 --> 00:14:41.080 there's absolutely crazy oppression, 290 00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:44.360 and it's systematic ethnic cleansing of people groups, 291 00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:47.280 which when there's war in a nation, 292 00:14:47.280 --> 00:14:49.760 that immediately drops the value of human life 293 00:14:49.800 --> 00:14:51.120 to like 10 bucks, 294 00:14:52.720 --> 00:14:55.440 and you could probably do a deal as well, 295 00:14:57.200 --> 00:14:58.200 and I'm like, whoa, 296 00:14:58.200 --> 00:14:59.040 what the heck's happening, 297 00:14:59.040 --> 00:14:59.880 and then when 298 00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:06.000 We were, the police had their own brothels and the police had their own human trafficking syndicates. 299 00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:09.000 So you can't go to the police because they're just going to be like, 300 00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.000 oh yeah, sweet, we'll look after you in our trafficking ring. 301 00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:15.000 They just throw you into their system. 302 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.000 And then what are you going to do? 303 00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:22.000 It's hard to go to the politicians because most of the time the police are actually working for the politicians. 304 00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:25.000 It's like, oh man, where do you go? 305 00:15:25.000 --> 00:15:29.000 And then it's like crazy being there in the midst of it as well in Bangkok and in Thailand 306 00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:35.000 because you're like, oh my gosh, there's all these different international mafia groups 307 00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:38.000 that run the human trafficking. 308 00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:45.000 In the Russian mafia system, one thing that adds significance to what we're doing in Tajikistan, 309 00:15:45.000 --> 00:15:49.000 we're working in Thailand and Tajikistan. 310 00:15:49.000 --> 00:15:55.000 And we're actually doing cool things in Pakistan with getting people out of slavery as well. 311 00:15:56.000 --> 00:16:04.000 But in Thailand, the way the Russian mafia works is they basically do franchises or territory rights 312 00:16:04.000 --> 00:16:06.000 for different criminal activities. 313 00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:11.000 So they have territory rights for the human trafficking, the weapons trade, things like that. 314 00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:18.000 So different branches of the Russian mafia get the different territory rights or franchises for different things. 315 00:16:18.000 --> 00:16:25.000 So the Uzbekistan branch of the Russian mafia has the human trafficking rights for Thailand. 316 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.000 And Tajikistan borders Uzbekistan. 317 00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:34.000 So where we want to set up our base in Thailand is in Pattaya. 318 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:39.000 There's so much Russian mafia in Pattaya that even some of the street signs are in Russian. 319 00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:46.000 But it's all run by the Uzbekistani branch of the Russian mafia. 320 00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:53.000 So having a base in Tajikistan is really good as well because Tajikistan and Uzbekistan are bordering nations. 321 00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:57.000 So when it comes to repatriotising, we're starting to work in that part of the world as well. 322 00:16:57.000 --> 00:17:02.000 So that's really directly connected as far as the strategy of going forward. 323 00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:07.000 It's in the perfect part of the world for us to start growing into Uzbekistan, 324 00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:11.000 developing networks in there for being able to repatriate people. 325 00:17:16.000 --> 00:17:26.000 So that was 2007 in Bangkok. 326 00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.000 And I'm like, oh my gosh, what can I do? 327 00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:34.000 Because there's all these giants of darkness lined up around it. 328 00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:39.000 Oh my gosh, it's not just like save one kid and then you've done the deal. 329 00:17:39.000 --> 00:17:42.000 Saving one kid is great. 330 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.000 The broken heart of the father gives significance to that one kid. 331 00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:47.000 And you want to stop for that one. 332 00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:50.000 You want to pour out your love and you want to pour out your life for that one. 333 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:53.000 But that's not enough just to minister to the one. 334 00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:56.000 If all you ever do is engage with the broken heart of the father, 335 00:17:56.000 --> 00:17:59.000 all you ever do is just stop for the one. 336 00:17:59.000 --> 00:18:02.000 But if all you ever do is just stop for the one, then guess what? 337 00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.000 There's always going to be a one. 338 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:08.000 There's always going to be another one and another one and another one and another one. 339 00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:13.000 If we stop with engaging with the broken heart of the father, 340 00:18:13.000 --> 00:18:14.000 we're not supposed to stop. 341 00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:17.000 We're supposed to go beyond and discover the burning heart of the father. 342 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:23.000 So I was in this place just wrestling because I see all these systems that are giants. 343 00:18:23.000 --> 00:18:24.000 Giants of darkness. 344 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:30.000 I'm like one kid in Bangkok going, what? 345 00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:34.000 What am I supposed to do about the Russian mafia? 346 00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:40.000 And your heart kind of goes, oh, man, what should I do? 347 00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:44.000 And actually if you can't see hope in that, your heart actually starts turning towards despair. 348 00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:48.000 And I actually felt my heart turning into despair at the situation. 349 00:18:48.000 --> 00:18:50.000 I was like, oh. 350 00:18:50.000 --> 00:18:55.000 But then in the midst of that, of trying to find where's my heart supposed to go? 351 00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:56.000 How am I supposed to respond? 352 00:18:56.000 --> 00:19:01.000 And trying to find that place in the midst of this new feeling of like, 353 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:04.000 oh, I've never seen this chaos before in this new experience. 354 00:19:04.000 --> 00:19:07.000 Like, oh, my gosh, I never even knew this existed. 355 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:11.000 My whole world paradigms are all shifting around at the same time. 356 00:19:11.000 --> 00:19:13.000 And I feel my heart turning into despair. 357 00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:17.000 And then at that point, really seeking the Lord, like, what do I do? 358 00:19:17.000 --> 00:19:24.000 I see this vision, and I see a vision of an army of revivalists getting mobilized 359 00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:28.000 and sent out into the nations to bring down the giants of darkness in the nations. 360 00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:29.000 Oh, come on. 361 00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:33.000 And then he gives me this word, Jeremiah 1, 4 to 10. 362 00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:39.000 And since then, it's been 10 years, when I have a Bible that's got one of those, 363 00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:42.000 you know some of them have that little ribbon you can put it somewhere? 364 00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:45.000 My ribbon is here, Jeremiah 1. 365 00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.000 That's where my ribbon is every time. 366 00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:49.000 Actually, Zoe's quite cute. 367 00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:50.000 She goes up to our room. 368 00:19:50.000 --> 00:19:52.000 I only have one Bible with a ribbon thing in it. 369 00:19:52.000 --> 00:19:53.000 It's beside my bed. 370 00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:58.000 And she can't read, obviously, but nearly most nights if she's sleeping in our bed, 371 00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:00.000 she gets our Bible, gets my Bible. 372 00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:02.300 and she'll like go to sleep holding my Bible 373 00:20:02.300 --> 00:20:04.060 and she'll drop it on the floor so I have to like get it 374 00:20:04.060 --> 00:20:06.700 and religiously put it back to Jeremiah one. 375 00:20:06.700 --> 00:20:10.060 From this encounter because that's where I want to, 376 00:20:10.060 --> 00:20:11.660 I want to have my focus there. 377 00:20:11.660 --> 00:20:14.020 I want to have my attention there 378 00:20:14.020 --> 00:20:15.980 because that was a call, that was a time I got marked, 379 00:20:15.980 --> 00:20:17.340 that was a time something got birthed in me 380 00:20:17.340 --> 00:20:19.880 and I never want to lose my attention 381 00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:23.420 for the fact that I was marked then for something. 382 00:20:23.420 --> 00:20:26.060 And this is what Jeremiah one four to 10 is. 383 00:20:26.060 --> 00:20:27.560 The word of the Lord came to me saying 384 00:20:27.560 --> 00:20:30.360 before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. 385 00:20:30.360 --> 00:20:33.260 Before you were born, I set you apart. 386 00:20:33.260 --> 00:20:36.040 I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. 387 00:20:36.040 --> 00:20:37.240 Alas, Sovereign Lord, I said, 388 00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:39.440 I do not know how to speak, I am too young. 389 00:20:40.720 --> 00:20:44.000 But the Lord said to me, do not say I am too young. 390 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:46.320 You must go to everyone I send you to 391 00:20:46.320 --> 00:20:48.680 and say whatever I command you. 392 00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:50.440 Do not be afraid of them for I am with you 393 00:20:50.440 --> 00:20:52.400 and will rescue you declares the Lord. 394 00:20:52.400 --> 00:20:54.800 Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched my mouth 395 00:20:54.800 --> 00:20:58.040 and said to me, I've put my words in your mouth. 396 00:20:59.360 --> 00:21:04.360 And then verse 10, see today, I appoint you 397 00:21:06.600 --> 00:21:11.600 over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, 398 00:21:13.520 --> 00:21:18.520 to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant. 399 00:21:19.360 --> 00:21:24.360 So the Lord speaks to one guy and he says, yeah. 400 00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:28.040 So that was him speaking to me, 401 00:21:28.040 --> 00:21:31.000 that I don't care if he said the same thing to Jeremiah, 402 00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:31.840 he said it to me. 403 00:21:35.640 --> 00:21:38.960 I was like, Jeremiah, whatever you look, 404 00:21:38.960 --> 00:21:42.760 if you go back here, if Jeremiah ever argues with me 405 00:21:42.760 --> 00:21:44.680 about this, I'll be like, dude, whatever. 406 00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:46.760 He said that to me because look, 407 00:21:49.360 --> 00:21:51.640 before I formed you in the womb, 408 00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:54.880 like whatever, Jeremiah, you've got no dibs on that. 409 00:21:54.880 --> 00:21:57.280 This was before you were formed in the womb. 410 00:21:57.280 --> 00:21:59.320 We were there together. 411 00:21:59.320 --> 00:22:01.480 Before you were formed in the womb, 412 00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:02.920 he marked us with the same mark, 413 00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:04.320 he called us with the same call, 414 00:22:04.320 --> 00:22:06.840 he set us apart for the same purpose. 415 00:22:08.520 --> 00:22:10.200 So he said this to me. 416 00:22:10.200 --> 00:22:15.200 See today, I appoint you over nations and kingdoms 417 00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:20.720 to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, 418 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:26.520 to build and to plant. 419 00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:32.200 That is the burning heart of the Father. 420 00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:33.600 The broken heart of the Father, 421 00:22:33.600 --> 00:22:35.680 the emphasis of the broken heart of the Father 422 00:22:35.680 --> 00:22:38.320 is for the victims of oppression, 423 00:22:38.320 --> 00:22:39.960 but the burning heart of the Father, 424 00:22:39.960 --> 00:22:43.040 the thing that he really is burning for 425 00:22:43.600 --> 00:22:46.200 is the systems to come down, 426 00:22:46.200 --> 00:22:50.600 for all the systems of chaos to be completely brought down 427 00:22:50.600 --> 00:22:53.400 and the systems and the infrastructure of the kingdom 428 00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:55.880 fully established in all the earth, 429 00:22:55.880 --> 00:22:58.120 north to south and east to west. 430 00:23:00.840 --> 00:23:03.960 Exploring what systemic revival looks like. 431 00:23:03.960 --> 00:23:05.200 This is gonna be fun. 432 00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:06.840 This is gonna, we're gonna be reading some Bible 433 00:23:06.840 --> 00:23:08.760 which doesn't get read enough 434 00:23:08.760 --> 00:23:11.720 and we're gonna be looking at it with brand new eyes today 435 00:23:11.800 --> 00:23:13.280 and we're gonna see something phenomenal. 436 00:23:13.280 --> 00:23:14.280 So I just want us to, 437 00:23:15.760

00:24:59.800 The kingdom of Solomon. 481 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.520 The best example of systemic revival in the Bible. 482 00:25:05.320 --> 00:25:09.480 1 Kings chapter 10, verse 1 to 25. 483 00:25:09.480 --> 00:25:12.000 Got a bit of reading to do and you're gonna love it. 484 00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:14.520 This is so juicy, I'm like wow, so stoked 485 00:25:14.520 --> 00:25:15.960 this is in the Bible. 486 00:25:15.960 --> 00:25:20.200 When the Queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon, 487 00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:23.320 so you're gonna be famous basically 488 00:25:23.320 --> 00:25:24.960 once you establish systemic revival, 489 00:25:24.960 --> 00:25:26.160 you're gonna be famous, people are gonna come 490 00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:29.080 from all around the world to see what you've done. 491 00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:32.600 Your fame's gonna spread all over the earth. 492 00:25:34.800 --> 00:25:37.160 When the Queen of Sheba heard about the fame of Solomon 493 00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:38.960 and his relationship to the Lord, 494 00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:41.640 oh, how is that to be famous for intimacy? 495 00:25:41.640 --> 00:25:43.760 She came to test Solomon with hard questions. 496 00:25:43.760 --> 00:25:47.000 Arriving at Jerusalem with a very great caravan 497 00:25:47.000 --> 00:25:50.080 with camels carrying spices, large quantities of gold 498 00:25:50.080 --> 00:25:52.320 and precious stones, she came to Solomon 499 00:25:52.320 --> 00:25:55.120 and talked with him about all that she had on her mind. 500 00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:58.160 Solomon answered all her questions. 501 00:25:58.160 --> 00:26:01.240 Nothing was too hard for the king to explain to her. 502 00:26:01.240 --> 00:26:05.200 When the Queen of Sheba saw all the wisdom of Solomon 503 00:26:05.200 --> 00:26:07.840 and the palace he had built, the food on his table, 504 00:26:07.840 --> 00:26:10.880 the seating of his officials, the attending servants 505 00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:14.720 in their robes, his cupbearers and the burnt offerings 506 00:26:14.720 --> 00:26:18.320 he made at the temple of the Lord, she was overwhelmed. 507 00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:22.200 The Queen of Sheba was a world leader. 508 00:26:24.240 --> 00:26:25.800 She's a world leader. 509 00:26:25.800 --> 00:26:29.120 She was one of the richest and most elite people 510 00:26:29.120 --> 00:26:29.960 in the world. 511 00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:34.560 She was used to extreme wealth. 512 00:26:36.120 --> 00:26:39.040 She was so wealthy that she could afford to give Solomon 513 00:26:39.040 --> 00:26:42.040 a gift of over 4,000 kilograms of gold 514 00:26:42.040 --> 00:26:44.720 as just part of the gift she gave him. 515 00:26:44.720 --> 00:26:46.920 4,000 kilograms of gold. 516 00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:48.560 That gift that she gave him of gold, 517 00:26:48.560 --> 00:26:50.960 it's over four tons of gold that she gives him. 518 00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:52.960 That's just part of it. 519 00:26:52.960 --> 00:26:54.400 So she's pretty wealthy. 520 00:26:56.120 --> 00:27:00.480 I should say this lady who's the elite of the elite 521 00:27:02.040 --> 00:27:07.040 travels in all the most phenomenal wealthy contexts 522 00:27:07.480 --> 00:27:08.560 on the earth, 523 00:27:10.640 --> 00:27:13.200 yet she was overwhelmed by Solomon's servants' clothes 524 00:27:13.200 --> 00:27:14.840 and by morning tea. 525 00:27:14.840 --> 00:27:19.840 So Solomon's servants' clothes had the capacity 526 00:27:19.840 --> 00:27:24.840 to overwhelm one of the most elite people on the planet. 527 00:27:30.600 --> 00:27:34.360 What is it about Solomon's servants' clothes 528 00:27:34.360 --> 00:27:38.320 that it gets a mention there that it's so phenomenal 529 00:27:38.320 --> 00:27:41.600 that it has the capacity to overwhelm? 530 00:27:41.600 --> 00:27:43.040 She was mildly impressed. 531 00:27:43.040 --> 00:27:47.080 No, it says she was overwhelmed. 532 00:27:47.120 --> 00:27:49.960 She's seeing something she has never seen before 533 00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:54.960 in all the earth of all her wealth. 534 00:27:55.800 --> 00:27:58.960 She's never seen anything like this. 535 00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:01.480 And it was things like the servants' robes 536 00:28:02.760 --> 00:28:04.640 that overwhelmed her, 537 00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:08.000 and morning tea with Solomon that overwhelmed her. 538 00:28:09.360 --> 00:28:11.440 I'm saying this because I want to start us 539 00:28:14.400 --> 00:28:15.640 looking at this cloud. 540 00:28:17.080 --> 00:28:18.640 It's overwhelming. 541 00:28:18.640 --> 00:28:20.120 Yeah. 542 00:28:20.120 --> 00:28:20.960 Wow. 543 00:28:24.200 --> 00:28:25.760 It's not on the screen saver. 544 00:28:25.760 --> 00:28:26.600 Okay. 545 00:28:44.560 --> 00:28:49.560 Overwhelmed by this kingdom that Solomon has established. 546 00:28:51.600 --> 00:28:53.560 I want us to start drawing our attention 547 00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:57.720 to what is it about this kingdom? 548 00:28:57.720 --> 00:28:59.720 What is it that Solomon's accomplished 549 00:29:01.720 --> 00:29:04.960 that has the capacity to overwhelm the world elite? 550 00:29:07.360 --> 00:29:08.640 Dun, dun, dun. 551 00:29:15.120 --> 00:29:16.960 What a tease. 552 00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:17.800 What a tease. 553 00:29:19.480 --> 00:29:20.320 Jesus. 554

again. 564 00:29:51.080 --> 00:29:52.000 Verse three. 565 00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:03.960 Alice he had built, the food on his table, 566 00:30:03.960 --> 00:30:05.840 the seating of his officials, 567 00:30:05.840 --> 00:30:07.880 the attending servants in their robes, 568 00:30:07.880 --> 00:30:10.480 his cup bearers and the burnt offerings 569 00:30:10.480 --> 00:30:13.160 that he made at the temple of the Lord, 570 00:30:13.160 --> 00:30:14.760 she was overwhelmed. 571 00:30:16.520 --> 00:30:17.960 The focus in Solomon's kingdom 572 00:30:17.960 --> 00:30:20.360 was a lesson that David modeled. 573 00:30:20.360 --> 00:30:23.960 Don't try to wear Saul's armor, be the best you. 574 00:30:26.520 --> 00:30:28.440 The farmers were the best farmers. 575 00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:32.000 The builders were the best builders. 576 00:30:32.000 --> 00:30:34.640 The bakers were the best bakers. 577 00:30:34.640 --> 00:30:37.200 The architects were the best architects. 578 00:30:38.320 --> 00:30:40.240 They weren't all trying to be Solomon. 579 00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:45.160 They weren't all trying to be Solomon, be the best you. 580 00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:46.360 Be the best you. 581 00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:49.960 When it comes to building a kingdom 582 00:30:49.960 --> 00:30:53.320 that's gonna exclusively manifest heaven, 583 00:30:53.320 --> 00:30:54.680 we can't all be Solomon. 584 00:30:55.040 --> 00:31:00.040 It's not about trying to be the best in the world, 585 00:31:00.040 --> 00:31:03.160 it's about you trying to be the best you. 586 00:31:03.160 --> 00:31:06.000 And being the best you and us all being the best us 587 00:31:06.000 --> 00:31:07.520 will be the best in the world. 588 00:31:12.200 --> 00:31:15.760 Don't try to be Nancy or Owen or Leon, be the best you. 589 00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.760 You have guest ministry, ministering, 590 00:31:19.760 --> 00:31:21.920 it's like wow, you can sometimes feel like, 591 00:31:21.920 --> 00:31:23.360 oh that's the best you. 592 00:31:24.680 --> 00:31:26.720 That's the model, that's the pattern. 593 00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:28.960 I've gotta believe exactly what they believe. 594 00:31:28.960 --> 00:31:33.120 No, I don't believe exactly what any of these guys believe. 595 00:31:33.120 --> 00:31:35.520 I've learned heaps from all of them, 596 00:31:35.520 --> 00:31:37.800 but I don't believe exactly the same. 597 00:31:39.280 --> 00:31:40.840 There's some things that I get and I'm like, 598 00:31:40.840 --> 00:31:43.080 yeah, fully 100% resonate with that. 599 00:31:43.080 --> 00:31:44.560 I'm like, yeah, totally. 600 00:31:44.560 --> 00:31:47.040 That's awesome, I fully get that. 601 00:31:47.040 --> 00:31:49.080 Some things I don't and that's all right. 602 00:31:50.240 --> 00:31:51.920 Don't try and be someone else. 603 00:31:51.920 --> 00:31:55.360 Don't try and wear Saul's armor. 604 00:31:55.360 --> 00:31:56.520 Be the best you. 605 00:31:57.600 --> 00:31:58.600 Be the best you. 606 00:32:02.360 --> 00:32:04.120 Verse six, she said to the king, 607 00:32:04.120 --> 00:32:05.960 the report I heard in my own country 608 00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:08.920 about your achievements and your wisdom is true. 609 00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:10.240 But I did not believe these things 610 00:32:10.240 --> 00:32:12.760 until I came and saw with my own eyes. 611 00:32:12.760 --> 00:32:17.760 Indeed, not even half was told me, 612 00:32:18.600 --> 00:32:20.480 and wisdom and wealth, 613 00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:23.000 you have far exceeded the report I heard. 614 00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:27.400 How happy your people must be. 615 00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:31.880 Sometimes you look at a leadership structure 616 00:32:31.880 --> 00:32:32.720 or a group of people and go, 617 00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:35.680 oh man, it must suck to be in that context. 618 00:32:35.680 --> 00:32:37.320 With that type of leadership, 619 00:32:37.320 --> 00:32:39.440 it just doesn't look healthy. 620 00:32:39.440 --> 00:32:41.800 But how cool when someone comes in and just says, 621 00:32:41.800 --> 00:32:43.440 how happy your people must be. 622 00:32:44.760 --> 00:32:47.240 How happy your people must be. 623 00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:50.120 How happy your officials who continually stand before you 624 00:32:50.120 --> 00:32:51.760 and hear your wisdom. 625 00:32:51.760 --> 00:32:54.360 Praise be to the Lord, your God, 626 00:32:54.360 --> 00:32:55.720 who has delighted in you 627 00:32:55.720 --> 00:32:57.920 and placed you on the throne of Israel. 628 00:32:57.920 --> 00:33:00.080 Because of the Lord's eternal love for Israel, 629 00:33:00.080 --> 00:33:03.360 he made you king to maintain justice and righteousness. 630 00:33:04.880 --> 00:33:08.040 And she gave the king 120 talents of gold, 631 00:33:08.040 --> 00:33:11.320 large quantities of spices and precious stones. 632 00:33:11.320 --> 00:33:13.760 Never again were so many spices brought in 633 00:33:13.760 --> 00:33:16.880 as those the queen of Sheba gave to King Solomon. 634 00:33:17.520 --> 00:33:21.880 The 120 talents is 4,104 kilograms of gold. 635 00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:23.680 And that's just a part of the gift. 636 00:33:25.560 --> 00:33:28.360 Hiram's ships brought gold from Offa. 637 00:33:28.360 --> 00:33:29.680 And from there, 638 00:33:29.680 --> 00:33:33.120 they brought great cargos of almigood and precious stones. 639 00:33:33.120 --> 00:33:35.640 The king used the almigood to make supports 640 00:33:35.640 --> 00:33:38.160 for the temple of the Lord and for the royal palace 641 00:33:38.160 --> 00:33:40.880 and to make harps and lyres for the musicians. 642 00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:43.000 So much almigood has never been imported 643 00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:45.120 or seen since that day. 644 00:33:47.840 --> 00:33:49.800 King Solomon gave the queen of Sheba 645 00:33:49.800 --> 00:33:51.440 all she desired and asked for. 646 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:55.720 Besides what he had given her out of his royal bounty, 647 00:33:55.720 --> 00:33:57.560 then she left and returned with her retinue 648 00:33:57.560 --> 00:33:58.640 to her own country. 649 00:33:59.520 --> 00:34:01.800 The weight of gold that Solomon received yearly 650 00:34:01.800 --> 00:34:04.280 was 666 talents, 651 00:34:04.280 --> 00:34:07.280 not including the revenues from merchants and traders 652 00:34:07.280 --> 00:34:09.880 and from all the Arabian kings 653 00:34:09.880 --> 00:34:12.600 and the governors of the territories. 654 00:34:12.600 --> 00:34:15.600 The 666 talents is 25 tons. 655 00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:17.520 That's not where the money was. 656 00:34:17.520 --> 00:34:19.880 Okay, the serious money for King Solomon 657 00:34:19.880 --> 00:34:21.639 did not come from his gold and enterprise, 658 00:34:21.639 --> 00:34:22.960 it came from his taxes. 659 00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:25.040 Give you a little breakdown 660 00:34:25.040 --> 00:34:28.480 of how taxes work for governments in a moment. 661 00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:30.000 But let's look at gold prices. 662 00:34:30.840 --> 00:34:34.159 So gold price this week 663 00:34:35.560 --> 00:34:40.560 for a kilogram, $41,558.06 US. 664 00:34:43.000 --> 00:34:44.320 This is a couple of years ago 665 00:34:44.360 --> 00:34:45.920 so you get an idea of how much money you could have made 666 00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:47.920 if you invested in gold. 667 00:34:49.679 --> 00:34:53.920 So it is now 41,558. 668 00:34:53.920 --> 00:34:58.920 It was $39,281.78 per kilogram US. 669 00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:22.320 So, if you look at how much that weight of gold, 666 talents, converts to US $1,038,951,500 670 00:35:22.320 --> 00:35:37.560 Kiwi money, that's $1,262,803,631.36. So, if you break that down, the value of gold that 671 00:35:37.560 --> 00:35:50.320 Solomon had coming in on a daily basis was $2,690,532.88, which is actually not much money. 672 00:35:50.320 --> 00:36:04.320 So, that's the 2014 rate. Today's rate, that would be a value of $1,038,951,500 Kiwi money. 673 00:36:04.320 --> 00:36:16.320 Ha, I gave you the same. I didn't update it. Ha. Is it not the same? I didn't update the US one, but I updated the Kiwi one. Ha. 674 00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:31.320 Invest in New Zealand, you made an extra $200 million. $1,418,170,459.82 Kiwi. That's worth a year. 675 00:36:31.320 --> 00:36:42.320 Investing on a daily basis in New Zealand money, it's $3,885,398.52 daily, just from one aspect of his gold. 676 00:36:42.320 --> 00:36:51.320 It's not counting the merchant ships and all these other things he's got. But I just want to say that those extra gigs on the side that governments make, that's not where their money comes from. 677 00:36:51.320 --> 00:37:00.320 I'll show you. New Zealand government annual income, 2015-16 financial year. Total income is $76.1 billion is our total income. 678 00:37:00.320 --> 00:37:12.320 But from the tax, what is just tax, is $70.4 billion. So all the other money that New Zealand's government makes is basically, it's not much. 679 00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:24.320 There's only another $6 billion. Most of it's from tax. So 92.5% of our total income is tax, rather than enterprise. We should sort that out. 680 00:37:24.320 --> 00:37:36.320 Bunch of dumb people with our money. We could make better money than that, I would say. Hey, if you've got $70 billion to invest, probably could do a better job of that. 681 00:37:37.320 --> 00:37:45.320 So in US money, so their 2015 financial year, their total income was $3.18 trillion. 682 00:37:51.320 --> 00:38:05.320 So the 2015 financial year, of that $3.18 trillion, $2.8517 trillion of that was from tax. So $89.67 of their total income was tax. So they're doing a little bit better on the enterprise front. 683 00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:20.320 Just to give you an idea, so that's 92% of New Zealand's income is tax. 89% of the American income is tax. So Solomon's money, his big money, is not coming from gold. 684 00:38:20.320 --> 00:38:29.320 And he's not just taxing his own people, he's got the whole region, like all the other countries all around the world, paying him tax not to destroy them. 685 00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:40.320 At minimum, Solomon spent the equivalent of billions bringing heaven to earth. At bare minimum, but possibly the equivalent of trillions. 686 00:38:40.320 --> 00:38:48.320 I was chatting with Tony the other day and we were having this conversation. It's not that expensive to get people into heaven. 687 00:38:49.320 --> 00:39:07.320 You go to Pakistan and you can do meetings with 60,000 people. 100,000 people. There's bigger meetings than that happening around the world. 688 00:39:07.320 --> 00:39:18.320 In Africa they're doing meetings of a million people in that one meeting. And see like half a million people come into the kingdom. 689 00:39:18.320 --> 00:39:31.320 And that's actually relatively cheap. But bringing heaven to earth and establishing heaven in every single infrastructure in society, now that will cost trillions of dollars. 690 00:39:31.320 --> 00:39:43.320 Because even the servants' robes will overwhelm the world elite. Everything top to bottom will reflect and resonate the fullness of the majesty of heaven. 691 00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:45.320 That's going to cost trillions of dollars. 692 00:39:48.320 --> 00:39:53.320 Who is getting ready to steward trillions for the purpose of bringing heaven to earth? 693 00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:58.320 Is anyone preparing for that? Is anyone getting themselves ready for that? 694 00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:03.360 No, I think I will prepare myself. 695 00:40:03.360 --> 00:40:04.960 I think I will get myself ready. 696 00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:06.560 I think I will do whatever it takes 697 00:40:06.560 --> 00:40:09.120 to be a steward who could steward trillions 698 00:40:09.120 --> 00:40:10.520 for the purpose of the Lord. 699 00:40:12.680 --> 00:40:16.380 Because it will cost trillions at bare minimum. 700 00:40:19.560 --> 00:40:22.640 Verse 16, 1 Kings 10. 701 00:40:22.640 --> 00:40:25.360 King Solomon made 200 large shields of hammered gold. 702 00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:27.560 600 shekels of gold went into each shield. 703 00:40:27.640 --> 00:40:30.440 He also made 300 small shields of hammered gold 704 00:40:30.440 --> 00:40:34.000 with three minors of gold in each shield. 705 00:40:34.000 --> 00:40:36.600 The king put them in the palace of the forest of Lebanon. 706 00:40:36.600 --> 00:40:38.640 Just another palace he had going on. 707 00:40:38.640 --> 00:40:40.720 Then the king made a great throne, 708 00:40:40.720 --> 00:40:43.480 covered with ivory and overlaid with fine gold. 709 00:40:43.480 --> 00:40:47.000 The throne had six steps and its back had a rounded top. 710 00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:49.000 On both sides of the seat were armrests 711 00:40:49.000 --> 00:40:51.600 with a lion standing beside each of them. 712 00:40:51.600 --> 00:40:53.600 12 lions stood on the six steps, 713 00:40:53.600 --> 00:40:55.640 one at either end of each step. 714 00:40:55.720 --> 00:40:59.640 Nothing like it had ever been made for any other kingdom. 715 00:40:59.640 --> 00:41:01.760 All King Solomon's goblets were gold 716 00:41:01.760 --> 00:41:04.280 and all the household articles in the palace 717 00:41:04.280 --> 00:41:06.560 of the forest of Lebanon were pure gold. 718 00:41:06.560 --> 00:41:09.000 Nothing was made of silver because silver 719 00:41:09.000 --> 00:41:11.440 was considered of little value in Solomon's days. 720 00:41:12.760 --> 00:41:15.120 The king had a fleet of trading ships at sea 721 00:41:15.120 --> 00:41:16.720 along with the ships of Hiram. 722 00:41:16.720 --> 00:41:18.320 Once every three years it returned, 723 00:41:18.320 --> 00:41:22.280 carrying gold, silver and ivory and apes and baboons. 724 00:41:22.280 --> 00:41:24.960 Can't get enough of those apes and baboons. 725 00:41:24.960 --> 00:41:26.040 What do you want us to do for three years? 726 00:41:26.040 --> 00:41:28.640 Apes and baboons, oh, lots of apes and baboons. 727 00:41:28.640 --> 00:41:29.480 Really, Solomon? 728 00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:31.160 Again, apes and baboons. 729 00:41:32.200 --> 00:41:33.880 More apes than baboons. 730 00:41:33.880 --> 00:41:36.760 There's probably a lot of apes and baboons. 731 00:41:36.760 --> 00:41:37.960 Baboons aren't even very pretty. 732 00:41:37.960 --> 00:41:39.360 When we were in South Africa, we saw them, 733 00:41:39.360 --> 00:41:42.000 they were like, nah, oh my gosh. 734 00:41:42.000 --> 00:41:43.200 Like, they were gnarly. 735 00:41:43.200 --> 00:41:47.480 Oh, they were gnarly as like crusty butts cracked 736 00:41:47.480 --> 00:41:49.920 on just like, not just their bum cracks 737 00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:50.760 because they're one of those animals 738 00:41:50.760 --> 00:41:52.800 that like God made them as a joke. 739 00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:56.320 It's like God also made, 740 00:41:56.320 --> 00:41:58.480 okay, can anyone guess what animal this is? 741 00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:00.760 That's a cat walking away. 742 00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:04.760 Some animals and some things about animals 743 00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:07.240 God just made as a joke and baboons are one of them. 744 00:42:07.240 --> 00:42:10.800 I was like, oh my gosh, that's rude, obscene and just gross. 745 00:42:12.040 --> 00:42:14.560 Oh man, those baboons in Africa were nasty. 746 00:42:14.560 --> 00:42:16.720 Anyway, I don't know, but Solomon loved them. 747 00:42:16.720 --> 00:42:19.440 He's like, I love those baboons. 748 00:42:19.440 --> 00:42:20.960 Give me some more baboons. 749 00:42:21.080 --> 00:42:24.720 King Solomon was greater in riches and wisdom 750 00:42:24.720 --> 00:42:26.440 than all the other kings of the earth. 751 00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:28.920 The whole world sought audience with Solomon 752 00:42:28.920 --> 00:42:31.240 to hear the wisdom God had put in his heart. 753 00:42:31.240 --> 00:42:33.920 Year after year, everyone who came brought a gift. 754 00:42:33.920 --> 00:42:37.480 Articles of silver and gold, robes, weapons and spices 755 00:42:37.480 --> 00:42:39.160 and horses and mules. 756 00:42:39.160 --> 00:42:40.800 Yeah, love mules. 757 00:42:40.800 --> 00:42:42.720 Bring me a few mules. 758 00:42:42.720 --> 00:42:47.440 The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones. 759 00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:54.880 The king made silver as common in Jerusalem as stones 760 00:42:54.880 --> 00:42:57.520 and cedar as plentiful as sycamore fig trees 761 00:42:57.520 --> 00:42:58.440 in the foothills. 762 00:43:00.560 --> 00:43:02.600 One Kings four, 20 to 25. 763 00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:08.560 The people of Judah and Israel were as numerous 764 00:43:08.560 --> 00:43:10.920 as the sand on the seashore. 765 00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:13.600 They ate, they drank and they were happy. 766 00:43:15.600 --> 00:43:18.840 Think about world history and think about all the kingdoms 767 00:43:18.840 --> 00:43:20.360 that have ever been. 768 00:43:20.360 --> 00:43:23.680 There's almost always like some aspect of that society 769 00:43:23.680 --> 00:43:26.560 that's downtrodden, abused, beat up. 770 00:43:26.560 --> 00:43:27.840 And even in Israel's history, 771 00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:30.880 there's almost always a huge amount of ripping off, 772 00:43:32.000 --> 00:43:32.920 oppression. 773 00:43:32.920 --> 00:43:34.680 That's what the heartbeat of the prophets was 774 00:43:34.680 --> 00:43:35.520 over and over again. 775 00:43:35.520 --> 00:43:38.280 Can you stop abusing the poor and ripping people off 776 00:43:38.280 --> 00:43:40.520 and scandalizing and stealing widows' houses? 777 00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:43.760 Not here. 778 00:43:43.760 --> 00:43:45.720 They ate, they drank and they were happy. 779 00:43:45.720 --> 00:43:48.040 And Solomon ruled over all the kingdoms 780 00:43:48.040 --> 00:43:50.720 from the Euphrates River to the land of the Philistines. 781 00:43:50.720 --> 00:43:52.840 As far as the border of Egypt, 782 00:43:52.840 --> 00:43:54.600 these countries brought tribute 783 00:43:54.600 --> 00:43:57.000 and were Solomon's subjects all his life. 784 00:43:58.560 --> 00:44:00.520 Solomon's daily provisions. 785 00:44:00.520 --> 00:44:03.880 This coming up here is one of the reasons 786 00:44:03.880 --> 00:44:07.480 why the queen of Sheba was overwhelmed by morning tea. 787 00:44:07.480 --> 00:44:09.040 Get ready. 788 00:44:09.040 --> 00:44:11.320 This is why she's overwhelmed by morning tea. 789 00:44:11.320 --> 00:44:13.400 Solomon's daily provisions were 30 cores 790 00:44:13.400 --> 00:44:15.600 of the finest flour and 60 cores of meal. 791 00:44:15.600 --> 00:44:19.880 So 30 cores is 5.5 tons of the finest flour daily. 792 00:44:21.800 --> 00:44:25.000 60 cores is 11 tons of cereal daily. 793 00:44:27.240 --> 00:44:29.040 This is Solomon's daily provisions. 794 00:44:31.040 --> 00:44:32.160 So when you're thinking about that, 795 00:44:32.160 --> 00:44:33.000 I just want you to think, 796 00:44:33.000 --> 00:44:35.280 okay, so the farmers, they are the best farmers. 797 00:44:35.280 --> 00:44:38.000 Everyone's working on being the best you. 798 00:44:38.000 --> 00:44:39.200 I'm gonna be the best me. 799 00:44:39.200 --> 00:44:40.440 And the farmers, they've got this down, 800 00:44:40.440 --> 00:44:42.680 like, I am gonna be the best farmer. 801 00:44:42.680 --> 00:44:43.520 And they're all like, yeah, 802 00:44:43.520 --> 00:44:44.560 we're gonna be the best farmers. 803 00:44:44.560 --> 00:44:45.520 Like, I'm gonna be the best farmer. 804 00:44:46.120 --> 00:44:47.800 The farmers are phenomenal. 805 00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:50.840 So they're able to produce really good flour. 806 00:44:50.840 --> 00:44:52.440 And then the transport guys, 807 00:44:52.440 --> 00:44:54.280 they're like, we are the best transporters. 808 00:44:54.280 --> 00:44:55.880 So they get that flour there, 809 00:44:55.880 --> 00:44:57.240 and it's in perfect condition. 810 00:44:57.240 --> 00:44:58.200 They haven't wrecked it. 811 00:44:58.200 --> 00:45:00.040 You know, it's like, not those, like. 812 00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:06.320 you had one job guys, you know like your package turns up it looks like it's been run over kicked 813 00:45:06.320 --> 00:45:12.800 stabbed and left in the rain and you're like you had one job you know you don't have that guy 814 00:45:13.600 --> 00:45:18.480 going on they're like I am the I'm going to be the best me I'm going to be the best transport person 815 00:45:18.480 --> 00:45:22.400 I'm going to be awesome at this so the farmers have got the best stuff going on the transporters 816 00:45:22.400 --> 00:45:26.080 got the best stuff going on they bring it into the kitchen can you imagine how big the kitchens are 817 00:45:26.640 --> 00:45:31.120 the architects that designed them are the best architects they've thought this through they've 818 00:45:31.120 --> 00:45:36.080 planned it out with the bakers and the chefs and it's like this thing is going on this is huge 819 00:45:36.080 --> 00:45:44.640 because they've got a this is this is just the the flour and the cereal that's 16.5 tons 820 00:45:44.640 --> 00:45:50.800 of things that have to be baked snappy ready to go like let's get this thing happening 821 00:45:51.680 --> 00:45:55.920 and it's a good quality so don't think anything along any similar tangent at all to KFC 822 00:45:57.760 --> 00:45:58.720 this is good quality 823 00:46:01.520 --> 00:46:03.120 10 head of stall fed cattle 824 00:46:05.680 --> 00:46:07.680 no I felt like that was you know pretty much 825 00:46:09.520 --> 00:46:15.040 bordering on the word of the lord about KFC there KFC could learn a lot from Solomon's Kingdom 826 00:46:15.040 --> 00:46:19.440 actually I think one of the biggest health hazards with KFC is when you walk in there and it's so 827 00:46:19.920 --> 00:46:25.440 greasy on the floor you're like oh my gosh I could be going down oh my gosh like 828 00:46:27.520 --> 00:46:32.400 it's dangerous they should just you know how you have those little yellow slimes that says 829 00:46:32.400 --> 00:46:35.760 caution like cleaning in progress or something should just have one of those like in every KFC 830 00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:44.960 caution KFC like just it's just slippery it's just slippery like whoa so on top of 16.5 tons 831 00:46:44.960 --> 00:46:52.080 of baking 10 head of stall fed cattle 20 of pasture pasture fed cattle is 30 whole cattle 832 00:46:52.720 --> 00:46:58.160 and a hundred sheep and goats you can mix it up a little bit but at least 100 of whatever as well 833 00:46:58.160 --> 00:47:04.480 as deer gazelles roebucks and tasty little roebucks and choice fell yes New Zealand got a 834 00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:11.840 word in there choice boo got some choice foul for he ruled over all the kingdoms west of the 835 00:47:11.840 --> 00:47:18.400 Euphrates river from tipsha to Gaza and had peace on all sides so that is a lot of meat 836 00:47:19.840 --> 00:47:25.600 it's like a whole slaughterhouse like the best butchers all the butchers I'm the best I'm going 837 00:47:25.600 --> 00:47:31.120 to be the best me people skinning like how many how many of your skin today oh that's only 87 838 00:47:31.120 --> 00:47:36.720 I've still got heaps to go but I'm the best skinner everyone's doing their bit and everyone's 839 00:47:36.720 --> 00:47:42.160 just trying to be the best me they're not trying to wear Saul's armor they're not they ate and they 840 00:47:42.160 --> 00:47:46.400 drank and they were happy they're actually content in the work that they did they found 841 00:47:47.200 --> 00:47:53.360 they found their sphere they found their mountain they found their place and they loved it so God 842 00:47:53.360 --> 00:47:59.040 puts a dream inside of every single one of us that dream isn't necessary to be the best in the world 843 00:48:00.000 --> 00:48:05.520 like the best person in the world it's to be the best you and he's put creativity inside of each 844 00:48:05.520 --> 00:48:09.840 one of us we're born to create and whatever you're called to create be the best you 845 00:48:13.520 --> 00:48:20.880 if you're called to eat all that food be the best you be the best you and eat that food 846 00:48:20.880 --> 00:48:27.360 that's a lot of eating going on peace that word there peace is shalom here's the hebrew 847 00:48:27.360 --> 00:48:31.760 pictogram pictogram for shalom so it's strong teeth is the first thing which means strong 848 00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:36.640 teeth to destroy a shepherd's staff which means authority a tent peg which means to attach and 849 00:48:36.640 --> 00:48:42.240 then water which means chaos so the literal translation of the hebrew word shalom is to 850 00:48:42.240 --> 00:48:52.320 destroy the authority attached to chaos oh come on isn't that the best oh my gosh to just thought 851 00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:58.240 to destroy the authority attached to chaos so the best example that we've ever had of shalom 852 00:48:58.240 --> 00:49:04.480 shalom personified as jesus jesus is shalom personified means to destroy the authority 853 00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:12.480 attached to chaos oh shalom is systemic revival the concept of shalom is that everything functioning 854 00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:18.800 in divine alignment according to divine design and shalom by nature advances and expands it is 855 00:49:18.800 --> 00:49:25.200 dynamic and not static shalom occupies chaos and brings it into alignment with the dominion of 856 00:49:25.200 --> 00:49:32.720 heaven and he had shalom on every side and no one wanted to touch them like no we're not going 857 00:49:32.720 --> 00:49:36.960 to argue with solomon we're going to pay the tribute pay the tribute as long as so his whole 858 00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:42.800 life no one ever argued once they didn't have one rebellion he never had to spend a single dollar 859 00:49:42.800 --> 00:49:54.720 on actual war you know that 3.18 trillion in the last 50 years only five years has america ever made 860 00:49:55.200 --> 00:49:59.840 that amount of money work the other 45 years they've had to go and 861 00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:05.020 Borrow money because 3.8 1 8 trillion or whatever the annual revenue that you wasn't enough 862 00:50:07.140 --> 00:50:09.140 Not an issue for Solomon 863 00:50:09.660 --> 00:50:16.500 Anyway, one Kings 4 20 to 25 during Solomon's lifetime Judah in Israel from Dan to be sheetable lived in safety 864 00:50:16.760 --> 00:50:20.160 Everyone under their own vine and under their own fig tree. No renting 865 00:50:21.160 --> 00:50:23.600 No poverty. Everyone had their own pad 866 00:50:25.040 --> 00:50:26.680 Yes 867 00:50:26.680 --> 00:50:28.400 There's no lack 868 00:50:28.400 --> 00:50:31.940 There's no lack in this kingdom. It's abundance top to bottom 869 00:50:32.680 --> 00:50:36.160 Everyone's doing their thing and everyone's got got abundance. Everyone's got more than enough 870 00:50:37.680 --> 00:50:39.680 One Kings 5 verse 4 871 00:50:39.680 --> 00:50:45.100 There's a few different translations of it for you. But now Jehovah my God hath given me rest on every side 872 00:50:45.100 --> 00:50:49.840 There is neither adversity. There is neither an adversary nor evil occurrence 873 00:50:51.440 --> 00:50:56.400 Reading the English revised version as well. But now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side 874 00:50:56.400 --> 00:50:59.080 There is neither adversary nor evil occurrence 875 00:50:59.520 --> 00:51:01.920 Okay, and I will just kind of have a look at this in the blue 876 00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:05.560 There's a Bible version so you can see what each of those words translates. So down the 877 00:51:06.720 --> 00:51:11.600 Down this side, but now the Lord my God hath given me rest on every side 878 00:51:11.600 --> 00:51:17.080 There is neither adversary nor misfortune or evil occurrence. So what is this word adversary? 879 00:51:18.960 --> 00:51:21.080 The Hebrew word for adversary is Satan 880 00:51:21.600 --> 00:51:27.400 So what he's actually saying is the Lord my God has given me rest on every side and there is no Satan 881 00:51:30.520 --> 00:51:32.520 Nor evil occurrence 882 00:51:35.880 --> 00:51:37.880 Come on 883 00:51:37.880 --> 00:51:44.160 Maybe maybe had something to do with the fact that David had 36 year worship set 884 00:51:44.560 --> 00:51:50.000 Before he transitioned the Ark of the Covenant from the Tabernacle of David to the Temple of Solomon 885 00:51:50.560 --> 00:51:56.240 24-7 years, so 24-7 worship there for around 36 years and 886 00:51:57.040 --> 00:52:00.800 And he completely ignored the system of the Tabernacle of Moses 887 00:52:01.280 --> 00:52:06.160 We were a priest the high priest was only allowed in once a year and he's like boys 888 00:52:06.160 --> 00:52:10.560 They come and get some glory and they were all in the nation worshipped around the Ark 889 00:52:10.560 --> 00:52:17.840 Do you spell Ark with a C? Yeah, very good Ark with a C. Anyway, the kingdom of Solomon here we go again Solomon's kingdom 890 00:52:18.480 --> 00:52:20.480 experienced shalom 891 00:52:20.480 --> 00:52:23.840 Because it was government governed with kingdom values from the top down 892 00:52:26.000 --> 00:52:31.680 We talked sometimes about the seven mountains the mountain of government the mountain of media the mountain of business family 893 00:52:32.320 --> 00:52:34.320 education religion art 894 00:52:34.480 --> 00:52:39.680 Until sons take back dominion of the seven mountains, we will never see systemic revival 895 00:52:42.480 --> 00:52:47.360 Instead we will continue to see a constant stream of victims oppressed by systemic chaos 896 00:52:49.840 --> 00:52:54.800 It is the oppression which results from systemic chaos that breaks the heart of the father 897 00:52:56.400 --> 00:53:01.040 It is the oppression which results from systemic chaos that breaks the heart of the father 898 00:53:01.040 --> 00:53:05.200 The father's heart is burning for a generation that will take back the high places 899 00:53:07.920 --> 00:53:12.640 The father's heart is burning for a generation with a different spirit like Caleb and like David 900 00:53:13.600 --> 00:53:17.680 The father's heart is burning for a generation of giant slayers 901 00:53:21.840 --> 00:53:26.400 Numbers 1424 but because my servant Caleb has a different spirit 902 00:53:27.360 --> 00:53:31.920 Numbers 1424 but because my servant Caleb has a different spirit 903 00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:34.880 And follows me wholeheartedly 904 00:53:35.600 --> 00:53:40.480 I will bring him into the land. He went to and his descendants will inherit it 905 00:53:42.080 --> 00:53:48.480 Joshua 14 12. This is Caleb speaking now. Give me this hill country that the lord promised me that day 906 00:53:49.600 --> 00:53:51.600 You yourself heard then that the anakites? 907 00:53:52.560 --> 00:53:58.560 Were there and their cities were large and fortified but the lord helping me I will drive them out just as he said 908 00:53:58.720 --> 00:54:00.720 Now the anakites were and the anakites 909 00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:03.840 Were a giant race 910 00:54:04.320 --> 00:54:06.880 He's saying give me the high places where the giants are 911 00:54:07.680 --> 00:54:09.280 He's not intimidated 912 00:54:09.280 --> 00:54:12.560 There's something burning on the inside of Caleb that set him apart 913 00:54:12.640 --> 00:54:19.520 Some translations say different attitude some say different spirit, but Caleb had a different spirit a different attitude.

I want this opportunity to 1108 01:05:34.600 --> 01:05:38.960 battle another giant. I want another Goliath. I love the Rick Pino song. We'll 1109 01:05:38.960 --> 01:05:46.680 play it later. We cut off this giant's head, we eat giants for our bread. We cut 1110 01:05:46.680 --> 01:05:50.160 off this giant's head, we eat giants for our bread. Actually, Mike, if you can find 1111 01:05:50.160 --> 01:05:58.240 that on YouTube. Good man. Sons take responsibility for their mountains. It's 1112 01:05:58.240 --> 01:06:02.560 not someone else's responsibility to climb your mountain. It's not someone 1113 01:06:02.560 --> 01:06:09.280 else's responsibility to slay your giant. That's your job. That's your job. You slay 1114 01:06:09.280 --> 01:06:14.480 your giant. You climb your mountain. What does it look like to take responsibility 1115 01:06:14.480 --> 01:06:24.120 for your mountain? You're gonna have to fight for your mountain. So if you, if 1116 01:06:24.120 --> 01:06:34.400 you're not training like a Spartan, don't expect to win like a Spartan. I love a 1117 01:06:34.400 --> 01:06:39.600 quote by Muhammad Ali. He said, I hated every moment of training, but I said to 1118 01:06:39.600 --> 01:06:47.640 myself, suffer now and live the rest of your life a champion. I hated every 1119 01:06:47.640 --> 01:06:51.760 moment of training, but I said to myself, suffer now and live the rest of your 1120 01:06:51.760 --> 01:06:57.320 life a champion. Don't expect to, don't expect to climb Everest if you're 1121 01:06:57.320 --> 01:07:07.320 training for Mount Eden. Don't blame someone else. Don't blame someone else 1122 01:07:07.320 --> 01:07:16.680 that you never made it up your mountain when you never trained for it. If you want 1123 01:07:16.680 --> 01:07:20.600 to climb Everest, then you better train like you want to climb Everest. You want 1124 01:07:20.600 --> 01:07:24.400 to take the highest heights, then you better train like a Spartan. You better 1125 01:07:24.400 --> 01:07:29.320 train like Muhammad Ali. He said, I don't count my sit-ups until they, until 1126 01:07:29.320 --> 01:07:35.880 they start hurting because they're the only ones that count. It's the pain. It's 1127 01:07:35.880 --> 01:07:42.560 the grind. That's the place where you grow. That's the place where your muscles, 1128 01:07:42.560 --> 01:07:48.400 they expand their capacity. It's in the taking of your mountain that your 1129 01:07:48.400 --> 01:07:55.920 muscles grow for the next one. You're gonna have to fight for your mountain, 1130 01:07:55.920 --> 01:07:59.840 which means you're gonna have to train for it in the hidden times, in the secret 1131 01:07:59.840 --> 01:08:07.280 places, when no one's watching, when no one cares. You're gonna have to risk for 1132 01:08:07.280 --> 01:08:16.520 your mountain. You're gonna have to do whatever it takes for your mountain. 1133 01:08:19.120 --> 01:08:23.560 You're gonna have to slay your giants. 1134 01:08:25.920 --> 01:08:29.600 One of the, one of the things that's a responsibility for me that I've taken on 1135 01:08:29.920 --> 01:08:36.240 one of my, one of my mountains is to raise up an army. And we do that through 1136 01:08:36.240 --> 01:08:39.080 Revival School in all sorts of different ways. But you know, we actually, we had to 1137 01:08:39.080 --> 01:08:44.640 take some serious risk to do that. I love it. The Lord always gives these crazy ideas 1138 01:08:44.640 --> 01:08:48.840 that like, for us, often it's financial risk. It's dreaming beyond the, 1139 01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:53.359 beyond the, beyond the bounds of what we can do. And five times already this year, 1140 01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:57.520 we've like, we've been fully engaged in things that could have like completely 1141 01:08:57.640 --> 01:09:03.200 sunk the ship. This is our fifth one. This is our fifth one right now. Like, hey Lord, 1142 01:09:03.200 --> 01:09:07.560 that's not a very good budget on that Kingdom Advance idea you have. Someone 1143 01:09:07.560 --> 01:09:10.560 asked me last night, oh, but what does all the money go on? I was like, well it costs 1144 01:09:10.560 --> 01:09:14.800 about $18,000 to run it. There's six and a half thousand dollars roughly from 1145 01:09:14.800 --> 01:09:20.560 Rejo's. And then, yeah Lord, you'll sort the balance out. But like that's, the 1146 01:09:20.560 --> 01:09:25.279 balance is more than we have in the account, you know. So, but it's like, no, 1147 01:09:25.279 --> 01:09:33.160 but I'll risk, more than happy to risk, for my mountain. Because this is my mountain is 1148 01:09:33.160 --> 01:09:38.240 to raise up an army. So if I, no one else is going to take responsibility for my 1149 01:09:38.240 --> 01:09:42.600 mountain. So what's going to happen? Nothing, if I don't risk. What's going to 1150 01:09:42.600 --> 01:09:47.640 happen to your mountain if you don't risk? Nothing. It'll just sit there. It'll 1151 01:09:47.640 --> 01:09:52.720 just sit there. What's going to happen to your giant if you don't slay it? It's 1152 01:09:52.800 --> 01:09:55.480 just going to, it's just going to be waiting for you. Your mountain is just going to be 1153 01:09:55.480 --> 01:09:59.480 waiting for you. If you don't risk something, if you don't actually do 1154 01:09:59.480 --> 01:10:02.000 something. 1155 01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:04.000 about it, if you don't train, if you don't fight, if you don't risk, if you don't dream, 1156 01:10:04.000 --> 01:10:08.320 if you don't go after it. 1157 01:10:08.320 --> 01:10:15.600 I'm all about, so intimacy for example, maybe there's a mountain of intimacy in your life. 1158 01:10:15.600 --> 01:10:21.560 Intimacy, there was a mountain, I had to climb this mountain of intimacy to, I had to slay 1159 01:10:21.560 --> 01:10:24.400 a giant that was opposing intimacy. 1160 01:10:24.400 --> 01:10:30.400 Took a long time to win that battle, but you know what, I really fought for it. 1161 01:10:30.400 --> 01:10:34.560 I fought for it, but here's the cool thing right, with intimacy, what I didn't realize 1162 01:10:34.560 --> 01:10:43.440 is the only thing separating me from seamless union with the trinity was in my head. 1163 01:10:43.440 --> 01:10:47.800 The only thing that ever caused any distance or any separation from me, from the trinity 1164 01:10:47.800 --> 01:10:50.760 was in my head. 1165 01:10:50.760 --> 01:10:56.920 Intimacy is not about proximity, it's about awareness. 1166 01:10:56.920 --> 01:11:01.440 So I had to fight, I had to grind, I had to pray, I had to fast, I had to read my Bible, 1167 01:11:01.440 --> 01:11:06.560 I had to do whatever it took, and I invested thousands of hours of doing that. 1168 01:11:06.560 --> 01:11:11.200 At 18 years old when all the other students in my hostel are getting drunk and having 1169 01:11:11.200 --> 01:11:14.320 a big weekend, I'm fasting and praying for them all to get saved. 1170 01:11:14.320 --> 01:11:20.720 What am I doing, I'm grinding, I'm grinding, I'm training, I'm fighting for it, I'm going 1171 01:11:20.720 --> 01:11:23.080 after my mountain. 1172 01:11:23.080 --> 01:11:29.600 But after you win the battle, you actually have effortless intimacy. 1173 01:11:29.600 --> 01:11:31.360 After you take your mountain, after that it's effortless. 1174 01:11:31.360 --> 01:11:35.920 I took the mountain of intimacy, which was actually just a battle in my own head. 1175 01:11:35.920 --> 01:11:40.000 The battle that separation existed, because separation's an illusion. 1176 01:11:40.000 --> 01:11:45.380 I conquered the illusion, and guess what, most of your giants are phantoms. 1177 01:11:45.380 --> 01:11:46.880 Most of your giants are phantoms. 1178 01:11:46.880 --> 01:11:48.760 They look big, but it's just a shadow. 1179 01:11:48.760 --> 01:11:53.680 Get up there and there'll be a bug and you can squash it. 1180 01:11:53.680 --> 01:11:57.320 What will it take to see heaven fully manifest in your mountain? 1181 01:11:57.320 --> 01:11:59.560 What will it take? 1182 01:11:59.560 --> 01:12:03.400 You know, the bigger your dream, the more significance there is on the training. 1183 01:12:03.400 --> 01:12:07.200 You've got to find significance to put in the hours, and to put in the sweat, and to 1184 01:12:07.200 --> 01:12:11.560 put in the grind, and to put in the fight, and to risk, so you've got to find the significance. 1185 01:12:11.560 --> 01:12:15.800 You find the significance in the broken heart of the father, but you'll also find significance 1186 01:12:15.800 --> 01:12:19.120 in the burning heart of the father. 1187 01:12:19.120 --> 01:12:22.960 We're going to bring down the systems of chaos in all the earth. 1188 01:12:22.960 --> 01:12:25.480 What will it look like? 1189 01:12:25.480 --> 01:12:26.480 See it. 1190 01:12:26.480 --> 01:12:28.600 Here's how you can train. 1191 01:12:28.600 --> 01:12:33.560 Take time out, invest yourself to actually see it. 1192 01:12:33.560 --> 01:12:34.560 Invest yourself. 1193 01:12:34.560 --> 01:12:38.840 Take time, invest yourself in seeing what it looks like, imagining what it looks like, 1194 01:12:38.840 --> 01:12:39.840 imagining what it feels like. 1195 01:12:39.840 --> 01:12:41.800 Ask yourself, what does it feel like? 1196 01:12:41.800 --> 01:12:43.160 What would it feel like? 1197 01:12:43.160 --> 01:12:48.720 What would it feel like if every wild dream this generation has ever dreamed for the kingdom 1198 01:12:48.720 --> 01:12:50.720 was fully manifest? 1199 01:12:50.720 --> 01:12:51.720 What would it look like? 1200 01:12:51.720 --> 01:12:52.720 You see it. 1201 01:12:52.720 --> 01:12:53.960 Invest yourself in seeing it. 1202 01:12:53.960 --> 01:12:55.560 Invest yourself in imagining it. 1203 01:12:55.560 --> 01:13:00.280 Invest yourself in picturing it, until it comes alive, until it becomes something that 1204 01:13:00.280 --> 01:13:02.720 you're like, you know what? 1205 01:13:02.720 --> 01:13:06.680 This is what I live and breathe for. 1206 01:13:06.680 --> 01:13:08.760 The father is giving us our mountain. 1207 01:13:08.760 --> 01:13:09.760 That's not a PowerPoint. 1208 01:13:09.760 --> 01:13:12.280 That's a prophecy, a powerful prophecy. 1209 01:13:12.280 --> 01:13:14.880 You could say it is a PowerPoint in that sense. 1210 01:13:14.880 --> 01:13:15.880 It's not just a slide. 1211 01:13:15.880 --> 01:13:17.640 It is a PowerPoint, but it's more than that. 1212 01:13:17.640 --> 01:13:19.520 It's a prophetic statement. 1213 01:13:19.520 --> 01:13:23.480 The father is giving us our mountains. 1214 01:13:23.480 --> 01:13:27.080 Receive your mountain. 1215 01:13:27.080 --> 01:13:30.920 The father is giving you your mountain. 1216 01:13:30.920 --> 01:13:38.000 I want you just to shift gear a little bit now and get in receiving gear right now, because 1217 01:13:38.000 --> 01:13:40.400 he's giving us our mountains. 1218 01:13:40.400 --> 01:13:42.800 He's giving you your mountains. 1219 01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:45.840 Some of you need to take responsibility for your mountains. 1220 01:13:45.840 --> 01:13:49.200 Some of you let go of your mountains, forgot about your mountains, walked away from your 1221 01:13:49.200 --> 01:13:54.360 mountains, got discouraged, thought the mountain was too big, too high. 1222 01:13:54.360 --> 01:13:56.960 You haven't seen nothing yet. 1223 01:13:56.960 --> 01:14:00.840 The Lord said to me this morning when I was praying in here, not one person, actually 1224 01:14:00.840 --> 01:14:04.240 I was taking a dump when he said that. 1225 01:14:04.240 --> 01:14:09.400 I'd been praying and I was still kind of praying, and nothing had been coming. 1226 01:14:09.400 --> 01:14:20.440 Then I decided, well, if you're really struggling to get revelation, why not do a poo? 1227 01:14:20.440 --> 01:14:23.280 So I did, and I had absolute breakthrough. 1228 01:14:23.280 --> 01:14:32.400 Actually, a little while ago, I asked the person who was buying the toilet paper for 1229 01:14:32.400 --> 01:14:35.720 the church, I said, actually, can you get the expensive stuff, because people come to 1230 01:14:35.720 --> 01:14:43.520 the church for spiritual breakthroughs. 1231 01:14:43.520 --> 01:14:50.400 He said to me while I was in that spiritual position, not one person here has fully comprehended 1232 01:14:50.400 --> 01:14:53.920 the magnitude of the mountain the Lord has given them. 1233 01:14:53.920 --> 01:14:59.400 He's given you a bigger mountain than you've ever imagined. 1234 01:14:59.400 --> 01:15:00.040 He's giving. 1235 01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:01.000 to us right now. 1236 01:15:01.000 --> 01:15:06.840 Not, this is not a word, there's substance, there's spiritual substance in the atmosphere 1237 01:15:06.840 --> 01:15:07.840 right now. 1238 01:15:07.840 --> 01:15:10.040 There's an impartation in the atmosphere right now. 1239 01:15:10.040 --> 01:15:17.460 There's a tangible impartation of your mountain in the atmosphere right now. 1240 01:15:17.460 --> 01:15:18.980 And who's going to receive it? 1241 01:15:18.980 --> 01:15:20.960 And who's going to steward it? 1242 01:15:20.960 --> 01:15:25.720 Who's going to allow that impartation to take place? 1243 01:15:25.720 --> 01:15:28.800 Who's going to allow that impartation of the mountain? 1244 01:15:28.800 --> 01:15:32.720 Who's going to receive their mountain? 1245 01:15:32.720 --> 01:15:38.680 Not from me, not just out of the atmosphere, but an impartation from the Father, a gift 1246 01:15:38.680 --> 01:15:43.520 from the Father, from His eyes to your eyes, from His face to your face, from His heart 1247 01:15:43.520 --> 01:15:44.520 to your heart. 1248 01:15:44.520 --> 01:15:47.220 The Father is giving you your mountain. 1249 01:15:47.220 --> 01:15:50.760 The Father is giving this generation their mountains. 1250 01:15:50.760 --> 01:15:55.840 Just as He promised Caleb the high places where the giants live, the Father is promising 1251 01:15:55.840 --> 01:15:57.720 you your mountain. 1252 01:15:57.720 --> 01:16:01.640 The Father is promising you your mountain. 1253 01:16:01.640 --> 01:16:02.640 You know what? 1254 01:16:02.640 --> 01:16:06.400 He promised Israel the promised land. 1255 01:16:06.400 --> 01:16:11.200 And Joshua and Caleb said, yes. 1256 01:16:11.200 --> 01:16:16.220 The others said, oh, maybe it's a fake promise. 1257 01:16:16.220 --> 01:16:19.280 They got intimidated by their giants. 1258 01:16:19.280 --> 01:16:23.960 Caleb finishes the day by saying, give me the high places where the giants live. 1259 01:16:24.960 --> 01:16:29.280 Yes, there's giants, but He promised you the mountain, which means He's promised to make 1260 01:16:29.280 --> 01:16:31.680 you a giant slayer. 1261 01:16:31.680 --> 01:16:34.720 He's promised you a mountain, which means He's promised to make you a giant slayer so 1262 01:16:34.720 --> 01:16:36.880 you can take your mountain. 1263 01:16:36.880 --> 01:16:41.320 I'm fully persuaded about this because this is the burning heart of the Father. 1264 01:16:41.320 --> 01:16:44.600 This is the burning heart of the Father for this generation to bring down the systems 1265 01:16:44.600 --> 01:16:47.680 of chaos in all the earth. 1266 01:16:47.680 --> 01:16:53.280 The Father's heart is burning to tear down the infrastructure of chaos in the nations. 1267 01:16:53.280 --> 01:16:57.120 He wants to impart the fire of His burning heart into our generation so that we will 1268 01:16:57.120 --> 01:16:59.800 be of a different spirit. 1269 01:16:59.800 --> 01:17:03.280 He wants to impart the fire of His burning heart into our generation so that we will 1270 01:17:03.280 --> 01:17:06.840 burn for systemic revival. 1271 01:17:06.840 --> 01:17:09.800 He wants to impart the fire of His burning heart into our generation so that we will 1272 01:17:09.800 --> 01:17:15.240 burn for His kingdom to be established in the nations. 1273 01:17:15.240 --> 01:17:17.640 Jeremiah 1 10. 1274 01:17:17.640 --> 01:17:20.960 There's power, living power in these words for us today. 1275 01:17:20.960 --> 01:17:37.200 See today, I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy 1276 01:17:37.200 --> 01:17:43.360 and overthrow, to build and to plant. 1277 01:17:43.360 --> 01:17:48.720 You've got just as much ownership of those words as Jeremiah will ever have. 1278 01:17:48.720 --> 01:17:52.640 You've got just as much ownership of those words as Jeremiah will ever have because it's 1279 01:17:52.640 --> 01:17:58.800 the burning heart of the Father that He wants to communicate to you face to face, heart 1280 01:17:58.800 --> 01:18:00.840 to heart, spirit to spirit. 1281 01:18:00.840 --> 01:18:07.120 See today, I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy 1282 01:18:07.120 --> 01:18:10.120 and overthrow, to build and to plant. 1283 01:18:10.120 --> 01:18:18.680 Give me the high places where the giants live. 1284 01:18:18.680 --> 01:18:26.280 He's releasing an impartation of fire directly from His burning heart right now. 1285 01:18:26.280 --> 01:18:32.760 I want you just to stand. 1286 01:18:32.760 --> 01:18:38.080 I want you to engage with Him eyeball to eyeball, face to face, heart to heart, spirit to spirit 1287 01:18:38.080 --> 01:18:43.040 because there is an impartation and it's been here all day. 1288 01:18:43.040 --> 01:18:46.960 There's a fire in the room. 1289 01:18:46.960 --> 01:18:53.680 It's not my fire, it's not my word, it's not my preaching, but it's His presence here 1290 01:18:53.680 --> 01:18:55.160 as a fire. 1291 01:18:55.160 --> 01:18:58.600 His word is living and active as a fire here today. 1292 01:18:58.600 --> 01:19:02.360 You just begin to engage with Him, not me. 1293 01:19:02.360 --> 01:19:05.800 Just begin to receive from Him, not just me. 1294 01:19:05.800 --> 01:19:11.360 But I declare it in this place that right now, there's an impartation being released 1295 01:19:11.360 --> 01:19:14.280 from the burning heart of the Father. 1296 01:19:14.280 --> 01:19:18.720 There's an impartation being released from the burning heart of the Father to raise up 1297 01:19:18.720 --> 01:19:25.480 giant slayers that take their mountains, to raise up sons that rule and reign and exercise 1298 01:19:25.480 --> 01:19:29.720 dominion from the top down over nations and kingdoms. 1299 01:19:29.720 --> 01:19:36.960 There's an impartation of fire, there's an impartation of anointing and authority right 1300 01:19:36.960 --> 01:19:45.000 now to rule and reign over nations and kingdoms, to destroy every system of chaos and to establish 1301 01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:46.560 the infrastructure of heaven. 1302 01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:05.000 Just ask Him for it, say, more Papa, more Papa. 1303 01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:09.120 Consecrate yourself, set yourself aside, say, this is me, Papa, this is my dream and I need 1304 01:20:09.120 --> 01:20:10.320 your fire for it. 1305 01:20:10.320 --> 01:20:14.680 I set myself apart right now, Father, for this mountain that you've set before me. 1306 01:20:14.680 --> 01:20:19.440 I set myself apart for your purposes right now, Father, for these giants that stand before 1307 01:20:19.440 --> 01:20:20.440 me. 1308 01:20:20.440 --> 01:20:24.320 I set myself apart, Father, right now for these mountains that you've called me to master, 1309 01:20:24.320 --> 01:20:26.320 for these giants that you've called me to conquer. 1310 01:20:26.320 --> 01:20:27.320 I set myself apart. 1311 01:20:27.800 --> 01:20:34.080 Now, Papa, I set myself apart as a sacrifice. 1312 01:20:34.080 --> 01:20:39.720 I set myself apart as a living sacrifice right now, Father, because fire always falls on 1313 01:20:39.720 --> 01:20:41.880 sacrifice. 1314 01:20:41.880 --> 01:20:44.520 Fire always falls on sacrifice. 1315 01:20:44.520 --> 01:20:50.120 I set myself apart, Father, as a living sacrifice for your purposes, for your kingdom. 1316 01:20:50.120 --> 01:20:52.400 Let your fire fall on me, Father. 1317 01:20:52.400 --> 01:21:00.000 Let your burning heart, let the fire of your burning heart fall afresh on me, Father. 1318 01:21:00.000 --> 01:21:29.200 I just want you to lay hands on someone close to you and just release it. 1319 01:21:29.200 --> 01:21:33.320 Just release that burning heart of the Father. 1320 01:21:33.320 --> 01:21:34.880 Release that over people. 1321 01:21:34.880 --> 01:21:38.640 Just powerfully release it like a giant slayer. 1322 01:21:38.640 --> 01:21:53.080 Light it up like a giant slayer and begin to release it.
