Okay, family, beautiful.
I am excited.
I don't know if you caught the email,
but yesterday I just spent most of the day just in the presence of God
and just praying and the glory fell so beautifully and so tangibly.
The manifest presence of God has no comparison.
He's here right now.
My prayer is for you is that the waves of that manifest glory of God
will just be with you right now.
So we're going to talk right now about our secret source,
which is the DNA of raising royalty.
Where did it come from?
Why has it been so effective in seeing lives transformed?
Why has it been so effective in just consistently sparking moves of God
that seeing lives transformed all over the world?
Why is it so consistent seeing signs of wonders and miracles
and just really people's lives rearranged and transformed
in a way that's enabled us to have massive kingdom impact in life?
So in this series, we're going to talk about,
we're going to talk about viral kingdom impact, right?
So how you can actually have,
like how you can take the kingdom and explode it
and cause rapid expansion of the kingdom of God.
But we actually have to like not put the cart before the horse in a sense.
You know, it's really going to start with the DNA of what we're actually carrying,
what our vision is, what we're doing.
So I'm going to start there.
So I thought I'd give you a little bit of backstory in terms of who I am,
where my journey has come from,
and what's happened along the way to actually birth,
raise, and royalty and to bring us to this point.
So I hope you like stories.
This story, this session will give you the backstory of who we are.
It'll give you the DNA of who we are.
It'll give you a good understanding if you love us or hate us
or you want to run with us.
You're like, no, this is craziness, okay?
So this will be a great session to connect in with our heart,
connect in with our journey.
And then the next sessions will actually start unpacking how we take the kingdom viral.
But this one's really about DNA.
So get set because it's got some great stories here
that will have you really understanding who we are.
So here we go.
So my backstory is my parents were missionaries in Indonesia when I was born.
So I was actually born in the jungle in Indonesia,
way out in the Irian Jaya area in a tiny little town called Sengo.
Most Indonesians have never heard of Sengo.
It's just a little village and there was just a little missions hut out there.
The doctor put his gun boots on and came out and, you know,
like caught me basically when my mom was born.
There was a whole lot of rain just when I was born.
So the planes couldn't get in.
So they were at kind of, my parents were out in a base
and that's not where they exactly lived.
They had another place in town.
So to get me back home, they had to carry, when I was one year,
just one week old, they carried me through the jungle,
got into a dugout canoe, paddled down the river,
got into a float plane, flew back to the nearest airport,
got in a boat, mom took me on a motorbike to get my nappy changed,
back to the airport, back into a fixed-wing plane,
back to the airport and back to the van and back home.
So that's kind of like week one.
Born in the jungle to missionary parents.
My parents came back to New Zealand.
I was two years old, they became pastors. And I kind of did the church thing. I loved Jesus,
but I didn't really follow him. And then in 2001, my heart had started to change. And I was actually
sitting on the couch and my brother brought home these DVDs. They weren't DVDs back then,
they were videos. Let me know if you've heard of these videos, the Transformations documentaries.
And I sat there and I watched these documentaries and they were just stories of revival breaking
out all around the world. Revival that broke out in some of the darkest places and transformed
cities and then transformed nations. And I was captured by this. And while I sat there on the
couch just in that moment, watching these testimonies of revival breaking out all over
the world, the spirit of God spoke to me in one of the most profound ways that I've ever been
called out by God. This is the first time I was really called out by God. And he said,
this is what you were born for. You're going to see it in your nation. And my whole heart was
just like, yes, God, I'm all in. I'll give myself to revival. And I really had grown up in a Baptist
church with a religious background, didn't really understand anything about the supernatural or
anything about revival. But what I could see in front of me, I was like, this God I want to give
my life for. So that began this really exciting journey as we kind of went forward. I started
getting more into mission, started picking up the call of God, started trying to learn how to pray
and follow Jesus. And then as I got more into missions, I actually, in 2007, led a five-month
mission trip with four friends. We went to South Korea, Thailand, China, Vietnam, Burma, or Myanmar.
And it was at the beginning of that trip in South Korea, we went to Yodoful Gospel Prayer
Mountain where we saw Yonghee Cho preach. And he's just died just recently, actually, which is real,
he's a real hero of the faith to me. But when I was there at Yodoful Prayer Mountain,
just praying and just spending time in prayer and fasting, the Lord spoke to me and said,
he gave me a real challenge. And it was to, would I be willing to spend three hours a day in prayer
for the rest of my life? And I was like, whoa, this is crazy. So it was basically in that moment,
it was just a call to intimacy. And I knew that if I said yes to that, my life would never be the
same. I wouldn't be able to have a normal life. My life would be devoted to intimacy. And life
would never be normal. I was already spending a lot of time in prayer on a regular basis,
but it took me a couple of weeks to get back to him. Not like that first time he called me,
I was like, yes, but this time I was like, wow, this is serious. I had to take a couple of weeks
to pray to get back to him. And I was like, yes, God, I will. And then, so I spent, I didn't miss
a day from, that was February 2007, then all the way through to March, sorry, May 29th in 2010. I
didn't miss a day. May 29th is when I got married and I said to God, God, what does it look like
going forward on my honeymoon? Do I ditch my wife and just go off and pray? And he said, no,
he just kind of rearranged it slightly. But that season, it wasn't a day that I missed. And there
was often days that I spent eight hours praying. And then basically, even to this day, my life
revolves around prayer and intimacy, and he really called me out. And so I added it up one time just,
you know, just because I just am a bit of a numbers guy. And I was like, wow, I've spent
over 10,000 hours in prayer, but it was because he called me to intimacy, called me to lay my
life down for intimacy. And then what actually happened after that is it exploded a whole new
dimension, a whole new journey into this space that I had never known before. So basically,
reformation started to explode. Revival started to explode in my own life. I started to see an
explosion, you know, like I'd been pursuing signs and wonders for years, like since I was 18, trying
to get a breakthrough and hadn't gotten a breakthrough. And then after I started that
season of prayer, all of a sudden things started to explode. Signs and wonders and miracles started
exploding. Revelations started exploding. Encounters started exploding. I never even knew in the past
you could experience the manifest presence of God, but the glory invaded my world. And what happened
is this whole new dimension of the supernatural unlocked to me. I began to discover the Father and
began to discover Sonship. And that is when things just really took off in my journey.
And I guess, you know, that led, all of that led to the point where we actually, you know, in 2020
launched Raising Royalty. So in this challenge, you know, we're going to be covering, like I said,
the Four Secrets to Viral Kingdom Impact. And to us, those secrets are absolutely priceless, but
they only have value to those who share God's massive vision for discipling nations. And that's
one of the things that's come out of this season of prayer and intimacy is an ability to see that
Matthew 28, 19 has called us to disciple nations. So I want you in the comments, just to drop in
the comments, just say nations, if you believe we're called to disciple nations, if you believe
in the call of Matthew 28, 19.
we need to drop nations in the comments. Say yes if you believe in that. So because we just,
I became fully persuaded that we really are called to stand with Jesus in this calling to disciple
nations. And so if that's you, say yes. If you're a person who has had experiences like me,
where you've actually experienced the supernatural power of God breaking out in your life, or you've
received the miracle, or you've seen a miracle, you've seen the supernatural power of God,
I tell you what, it changes you. When you have supernatural encounters with the love of God,
it changes you forever. And I was changed forever through these supernatural encounters with the
love and the power and the glory of God. So if you've experienced that, I'd just love you to say,
yes, I've experienced these miracles. And any testimonies you've got, I'd love to have you
just drop those in the comments. It's just so amazing to see what God's been doing in our
lives. And I'll be following along for sure, checking out all the comments and hearing the
stories. So if you've had those testimonies too, just drop them in the comments of what God's been
doing in your life. Let's celebrate that together. For me, the secrets to viral kingdom impact are
so priceless, because they are a major strategy and a major key in the process of discipling
nations. So some Christians, they don't really care about impacting lives. Not all Christians
care about shifting atmospheres. Not all Christians care about heaven on earth. Not all Christians care
about discipling nations. But at Raising Royalty, that is what we stand for. So in this session,
the DNA session, our secret sauce, I'm going to show you, like unpack a little collection of
scriptures that really catch the heart of what we stand for, what we burn for, what we're ready to
die for, because we are making a serious stand. And I'm excited about sharing this journey with
you. So here's my little, I've got seven top scriptures that I want to share with you. The
first one is John 17, 26. And I've got for you in, if you're on the email list, where you get the
bonus access, you get access to our backstage pass for free. If you're on the email list, you
get access to extra bonuses. So at the end of the session, I'll make sure that there's a link to
jump on the email list if you haven't done that already. But if you have, then I sent you a handout
today, which you'll want to check. It's a really cool handout. And it's got this whole compilation
of awesome sonship resources. But in there, one of them is a whole compilation of scriptures about
Jesus revealing the Father. So let me start with probably my favorite one is John 17,
verses 25 to 26, in the amplified version. So, I just in right, this is Jesus praying,
he says, I just in righteous Father, although the world has not known you and has failed to
recognize you and has never acknowledged you, I have known you. And that is in power with the,
this is the Greek word here that's connected to the Hebrew word Yadah, which is intimate,
experiential knowledge, I have known you continually and these men understand and know
that you sent me, I have made your name known to them and revealed your character and your very
self and I will continue to make you known that the love which you have bestowed upon me may be
in them felt in their hearts, and that I myself may be in them. Wow. So
in this journey, right after during this process of extreme intimacy, and that's really what my
life is about. But in through this process of stepping into extreme intimacy and journeying
with God, I discovered the revelation of the Father. And we're going to unpack on this how
this becomes more and more of a big deal for us shortly. But what happens is the more we reveal
the Father, the more that we discover the Father, the more effortlessly we can receive his love.
And this is what Jesus was saying is like, here's what I want to do is I want to reveal the Father
to you so that the love that the Father has for me may be in you may be felt in your hearts.
And this is one of the big things about raising royalties that everything we do, we start with
the revelation of the Father. We start where Jesus started, which is revealing the Father so
that the love of the Father may come and may be present in people's lives, that the love of the
Father can heal, the love of the Father can restore, the love of the Father can make a way for
people to step into sonship. Because I want to say this about your life is that the ultimate
calling on your life is to be loved. All right. The ultimate calling on your life isn't to, you
know, perform a few activities. The ultimate calling on your life is not to, you know, just to
go through the religious motions. The ultimate calling on your life is to be loved, my friend.
And you drop in the comments if you agree or disagree with that. But the ultimate calling
of God, the reason he created you more than anything else, is he created you to pour out
his love on you every moment of every day. God wants to lavish you with supernatural love,
extravagant love, outrageous love. He wants to have you baptized in his love every moment of
every day. You know, like mature sonship. Here's what mature sonship looks like when we
mature in our identity as sons of God. Mature sonship looks like the ability to receive
divine love perfectly. Wow. And to give a perfect expression to divine love. Oh my gosh. That's what
Jesus modeled for us, what he demonstrated. He showed us what it looked like to live in the
Father's delight and to express the Father's delight in every context. Jesus came to reveal
the Father. Because as we discover the Father in the context of the radical love that he has for us,
you know, we begin to discover who we truly are and what it truly means to be made in the image
of God. And in that place, restoration happens, deliverance happens, freedom happens,
transformation happens. All the sin and the dysfunction that the church is trying to always
get off from us, it just effortlessly melts away when we discover who we are and we actually step
into a life of sonship, which is what Jesus spoke about in John 8, 12. I am the light of the
world, Jesus said. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but they will have the light of
life, which means you'll carry the divine life. You'll have like the life that Christ has and
modeled will be your life. The word have in John 8, 12 is the Greek word echo, which means you'll be an
echo from heaven. You'll be an echo of the divine life. You'll be an echo of the Father. You'll be
an echo of the Trinity in the earth. This is what you will call for. And so let's go deeper on this.
Ephesians 3, 17 to 20 in the amplified classic version as well. Check this out. It's so good.
This is all about the divine dance perichoresis. We're going to share more about this in a moment,
but let me read this for you in Ephesians 3, 17. May Christ through your faith actually dwell,
settle down, abide, make his permanent home in your hearts. May you be rooted deep in love and
founded securely on love, that you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with
all the saints, God's devoted people, the experience of that love. What is the breadth and length and
height and depth of it, that you may really come to know practically through experience for
yourselves, the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge without experience,
that you may be filled through all your being unto all the fullness of God and may have the
richest measure of the divine presence and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God himself.
Oh my gosh. This is the love that you were called for. And this is one of the reasons why raising
royalty, this is like our secret sauce is that the very first thing that we do, the first thing that
we carry, the most important thing that we carry is a revelation of the father that produces an
outrageous, supernatural, extravagant baptism in the love of the father that sees people healed
body, soul, and spirit, supernatural miracles, deliverance, the renewed mind, transformation,
it all flows from this outpouring of the father's love. And I want to read to you a little snippet
now from a book, actually, in the giveaway book, I give this in the giveaway welcome pack. And most
of you who've gotten here will have received this book as a gift. It's the Science of Dreams. I just
want to read a little snippet to you from the Science of Dreams. I read this book during a
five day encounter. It was like an open heaven. And I had a grace to be able to write for up to
20 hours a day. And in five days, I went from starting to having the first draft
completed and edited. So out of this five day encounter came this book. And I want to read
this bit to you. So perichoresis is the Greek word used to describe the trinity or it's called
the divine dance. So perichoresis in Greek, it means to kind of like bob up and down and move
around and around. So it's basically like a dance. And that's the word that the centuries
theologians have used the word perichoresis to describe the trinity. So in English,
the best way to translate it is the divine dance. So I want you to kind of just rest right now,
because I'm going to read this to you. I'm believing right now that there's going to be
an encounter with the supernatural love of the Father, that the supernatural love of the Father
is going to wrap around you. There's going to be fresh encounters. And I'm declaring signs and
wonders and miracles and healing and revelation and intimacy and breakthrough of your life as I
read this. But you just get to rest and let this wash over you. Let it go deep into your heart. So
get cozy and let me read this over you. Imagine with me, if you can, all that exists is the Father,
the Son, and the Holy Spirit, dancing together in a seamless, harmonious union,
infused perfectly with the most dynamic, powerful, extravagant, wild, gentle and exquisite
expressions of love that have ever and will ever exist, culminating in the most
abundant and glorious demonstrations of delight that have ever and will ever be known.
Imagine with me, if you will, the fullness of the infinite power of God,
concentrated into one giant laser cannon of pure, supernatural, divine love. So wonderful
that words could never hope to articulate even a single percentage of its unspeakable,
unfathomable goodness, warmth, kindness, wonders, ecstasy, bliss, euphoria, happiness, joy,
and delight. Now, imagine with me God the Father turning that giant laser cannon of divine love on
Jesus and blasting him absolutely with everything it had, holding nothing back, completely unleashing
the entirety of his divine love on his Son. Imagine Jesus being hit with this laser cannon of love,
more powerful than a million bolts of lightning love, except these intense beams of love are not
actually coming from a cannon, rather they are coming from the Father's eyes. And every glance
of his eyes is like a thousand waterfalls of love, like lightning, like fire, like oil, like being
consumed in an ocean of divine love. As Jesus is hit by the Father's gaze, everything slows down.
The love that comes from his eyes is softer than silk, but stronger than steel. It's the
most gentle love there has ever been, yet it is the greatest force in existence. It is calming
and soothing, yet it is a raging fire of love that consumes every aspect of his entire being.
It is an intense encounter, yet it is in perfect harmony with the most eloquent dance that has ever
been danced. Then Jesus turns his gaze, which is just as intense and powerful on Holy Spirit. Holy
Spirit turns his equally intense gaze upon Jesus, then on the Father, and they relentlessly,
throughout eternity, blast each other with the purest, most extravagant, most overwhelming
measures of divine love that have ever and will ever exist. I am aiming to help you capture
the wonder of the divine dance. It's an indescribable, unbroken cycle of the most
flawless and spectacular masterpieces of love in all creation and beyond. It's perpetual
expressions of divine love that never flinch, never relent, and never reduce in their intensity
or consistency. Each member of the Trinity receives this divine love perfectly, wow,
and gives perfect expression of this divine love to the other members of the Trinity,
in the most creative, the most outrageously abundant, the most excellent ways divinely
conceivable. The fellowship of the Trinity perichoresis the divine dance is an explosion
of the most mind-bending expressions of love divinely conceivable. Each member of the Trinity
pours out the fullness of their power. They hold absolutely nothing back, but spend themselves
entirely in their exuberant, extravagant, heartfelt expressions of love that they lavish on
one another. It was in this setting, in the context of this radical love, that the Trinity conceived
one of the most powerful ideas they have ever had. That idea was you. The original idea that
they had was that you would be a perfect dance partner, created with the capacity to participate
equally in the dance. They created you in their image so that you would be fully capable
of participating perfectly in perichoresis. I want you to imagine with me again.
This time you are the object of the Trinity's affection. The gaze of divine love is fixed on
you and at exactly the same moment, all three of the Trinity unleash the fullness of their love
and utterly baptize you in the most glorious expression of love that you have ever tasted in
your life. You can literally taste it. Supernatural love has entirely consumed you. You can see it
wrapping around your body like flames and arcing bolts of electrical current. You can hear it
pulsating and reverberating through every cell in your being, body, soul, and spirit. You can taste it
with every cell.
in your body and the fragrance of divine love has permeated the
entire atmosphere. Speechless, you collapse in the most
blissful, gentle, multi-dimensional paradoxical
state of your life. You've never felt so peaceful. You feel like
a thousand waterfalls of pure lava crashing over you every
second. You feel freedom like never before, but you feel
volts of a million volts of lightning love zinging through
your entire being. You feel like you're walking with God in the
cool of the day, except that you've never been ablaze like
this with the fires of love. You feel like you're walking on
water, but at the same time, you feel like you're swimming in an
ocean of divine love and liquid love is flowing right through
you. Everything is quiet, but the love of God is like thunder
in your heart. You can't even walk yet. Somehow you can dance
and carried by the spirit, you rise and take your place that
was prepared for you before time began flowing effortlessly
with the rhythms of the Trinity as you receive and express
divine love in a timeless realm of intimacy, oneness, ecstasy
and unrelenting waves of pure divine love. When Psalm 37 talks
about delighting yourself in the Lord, that's a tiny snapshot
with plenty of poetic license into what it looks like to
delight yourself in the Lord. Papa, I thank you right now for
fresh encounters with your love flowing over every person. Papa,
I thank you right now for a fresh baptism into the
supernatural glory of your goodness. Papa, I thank you
right now for a supernatural outpouring, a supernatural
outpouring of your goodness, of your grace, of your power, of
your love. I thank you for intimacy wrapping around people
right now. I thank you, Holy Spirit, for moving. I thank you
for Romans 5.5 that says, it's through the love, the love of
God is poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit. So Holy
Spirit, I thank you for fresh encounter right now, fresh fire,
fresh divine romance, fresh signs and wonders in Jesus name.
Amen. Oh, I love the divine dance. And so for us at Raising
Royalty, this is where we start with everything as we start with
the divine dance. And you can only get into the divine dance
through the revelation of the Father. That's why Jesus said in
John 17, 26, I have revealed the Father to you in order that the
love that he has for me. And what was that love that was in
Christ? It was the divine dance that was in Christ that produced
the divine life that produced the overflow, the echo from
heaven, everything came from the divine dance. And Jesus said, I
have revealed the Father because the Father, the revelation of
the Father is the gateway for you and I to step back into
perichoresis back into the divine life. And from that place
of the divine life, we become an echo from heaven, the divine
life flows from the from perichoresis from the divine
dance. And so let me carry on with Ephesians 3.20. Because
this is one of the next things that's so, so crucial with
Raising Royalty is that, you know, out of the divine dance
out of perichoresis, life comes, your dreams start coming alive,
the call of God starts burning on the inside of you,
supernatural gates and doors of favor and signs and wonders
start blowing open in front of you. And it looks like this, it
looks like Ephesians 3.20. Now to him who by inconsequence of
the action of his power that is at work within us is able, I
want you to say that with me, God is able, all right, whatever
your dream is, whatever your calling is, whatever your
mission from heaven is, I just want you to declare right now,
God is able, all right, God is able. Let's declare this three
times, God is able, God is able, God is able to carry out his
purpose and do super abundantly far over and above all that we
dare ask or think infinitely beyond our highest prayers,
desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams. Wow, that's Ephesians 3.20
for us. And when we dance with the Trinity, we begin to dream
like the Trinity. And this is what begins to happen as dreams
start coming alive. And for us, dreams are so crucial. To me,
dreams are like one of the most important things in your life,
because that's how God fulfills his calling through us, his
mission to us happens through fulfilled dreams. And I want to
say that fulfilled dreams disciple nations. So that's
Ephesians 3.20. That's another thing that we just stand for.
That's why we wrote the book, The Science of Dreams to help
people launch their dreams. So fulfilled dreams disciple
nations. Next thing we have, next scripture that we've got
that's you know, like a real stand scripture for us is Isaiah
6.8 in the NIV. It says, Then I heard the voice of the Lord
saying, Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? And I said,
Here am I, send me.
And one of the moments that really got my heart, like really just started me, really
got me rocked with God was in 2007, I was in Bangkok, helping out with a ministry doing
anti-human trafficking work.
And that particular night, we were in a place where we were serving a ministry that gets
kids and ladies and all, you know, and people out of human trafficking.
And where we were that night, they said, look, anywhere you go here, you can get kids, you
can get babies, you can get infants.
And this whole time, like just in that place of being in that context of Bangkok and the
human trafficking industry just totally wrecked me.
I went home that night trying to process it, totally overwhelmed.
I got so overwhelmed that trying to process this, I came to the point of absolute despair.
I felt so hopeless.
I felt so insignificant in myself that there's nothing I could do.
And I felt like the giants of darkness were all around me, intimidating me because there
were so many factors that were causing all these massive problems.
And I felt, man, I'm so powerless, I'm so insignificant.
I can't do a thing.
And I felt so intimidated and mocked by these giants of darkness.
And I came into a place of just being totally hopeless and my heart started to turn into
despair and actually just kind of I lost hope in that moment, was going deep into despair.
And then God spoke to me in that moment and he spoke to me out of Jeremiah 1, 4 to 10,
which is another scripture that we really stand on.
So Jeremiah 1, 4 to 10 says, the word of the Lord came to me saying, before I formed you
in the womb, I knew you.
Before you were born, I set you apart.
I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.
Alas, sovereign Lord, I said, I do not know how to speak.
I am too young.
But the Lord said to me, do not say I am too young.
You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you.
Do not be afraid of them for I am with you and will rescue you, declares the Lord.
Then the Lord reached out his hand and touched my mouth and said to me, I have put my words
in your mouth.
See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and to tear down, to destroy
and overthrow, to build and to plant.
And in that moment, he actually released a vision for me as well.
And I saw this army, this army rising up.
I saw God raising up an army.
It was an army of revivalists, an army of reformers, an army that would carry the presence
of God, an army that would carry the glory of God, an army that would carry the love
of God, the father, the revelation of the father.
There was an army that was going to raise up and bring down the giants of darkness in
the nations. And I just felt like in that moment I went from being pulled out of the
pit of despair and just life and vision and hope placed in me and this fire from God
placed in me. I'm like, wow, we're going to bring down the giants of darkness.
We're going to see revival in the nations.
We're going to raise up an army.
And for years I've been praying this prayer, God, raise up an army.
And he echoes it right back to me.
He shouts back to me, raise up an army.
And I pray, raise up an army.
He shouts back at me, raise up an army.
And this is the fruition, what's happening right now in raising royalties, the fruition
of this vision from all these years ago.
It's actually happening right now.
People raising up by the thousands all around the world, raising up to stand, to be a
part of what God's doing in the earth.
And one of the things that just really grips me about this whole dynamic of Isaiah 6 and
Jeremiah 1 is that, you know, we don't see everything that God sees.
Right. But there's so many things that are happening in the earth.
And this sound of injustice, the sound of oppression, the sound of horror for those
that are the victims of these heinous atrocities, that sound rises before the before
God, you know, he hears that.
And so one of the missions and the mandates that we have is raising royalty is to silence
the sounds of horror that rise before the throne of God.
Every injustice that's rising, every bit like we are after that.
We are out to raise up an army that will silence the sounds of horror that rise before
the throne of God. And that brings us into our next verse that is a real stand for us
is Isaiah 60.
And this year, 2021, there is not being a more profound word to us this year than
this scripture here, Isaiah 60.
Arise, shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you.
Behold, darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord
rises upon you and his glory is seen over you.
But this word arise is the Hebrew word kum.
All right. And it's the word that this word that means prepare for battle.
OK, so when you're back in the day in the Israelites, if someone sounded the trumpet
for war, right? If the shofar sounded and it was a call to war, the thing that they
would do next is they would kum, right?
They would arise. It means to arise, to prepare for battle, to take a stand, to get
ready to fight.
And and, you know, like it is such a it means whatever your life looked like before
the trumpet sounded.
to shift immediately. It is when you like the word kum, it means it's time for an urgent prophetic
shift. The word kum, it means arise, prepare for battle, take a stand. Like you've got to shift
out of casual and you've got to go into battle mode. You've got to prepare for war. This is a
huge powerful word. So if it was time to kum, everything had to change. You had to shift gears,
you had to go from casual. If you were having a nice party with your friends, everything had
to change and shift and you had to urgently go into battle mode. You had to prepare for war. You
were going to war. And I really feel like God's released that this year for us as the body of
Christ to kum like never before, to arise, to take a stand for the kingdom, to draw a line in the
stand. And then step into Nehemiah 4.14, which really captures the heart of what it means to
kum. It says, remember the Lord who is great and awesome and fight for your families, your sons
and your daughters and your wives and your homes. And I know that you'll know this and you'll
understand this as well, that right now, the body of Christ, we are in the fight of a lifetime to
bring down the giants of darkness emerging in our generation and secure a legacy of blessing in
heaven on earth for generations to come. So what we are in right now, what we're in right now is
the fight of a lifetime. This really is like that Esther moment for such a time as this. It is time
for us to arise, to kum, to prepare for battle, to make a stand and to get ready to shift from
casual into a state of urgent preparation for war to advance the kingdom like never before.
So I'll just drop a quick hint on this, like something that we're doing to help people do
this is the 21 Day Hard Things Challenge. And you'll hear more about that later on as we go
through this challenge. But that is producing major transformation into people's life, really
helping people to arise right now, to take their place, to take a stand and get ready for what is
coming. So this leads into Matthew 28, 19, right? This is this is such a beautiful verse. So jump
with me here. If you've got your Bibles, you can tune in there. Matthew 28 verses 19 to 20.
This is Jesus speaking. This is the Great Commission, right? And it feels like to me,
like some people think that the Great Commission doesn't apply to us anymore.
Some Christians aren't interested in the Great Commission. They're interested in all sorts of
other things. But the Great Commission doesn't doesn't do it for them. But for me, I feel like
this is what we are on the earth for, you know, it's a raising royalty. I'm like, this is what
our commission is. This is what we're called for. This is what we stand for. This is what we've been
for. You know, we will die for this. We we're ready to draw a line in the stand. And, you know,
whatever comes for standing with Jesus, we will take that. We will walk that road, whatever it
looks like. We will walk that road. But we won't flinch on the vision of what Jesus has called us
to go after, which is, therefore, go and make disciples of all nations. Listen to that. It's
not just go and make disciples in all nations. Listen to the scale, the magnitude of how big
Jesus is dreaming. Now, the only way that we can dream as big as Jesus is if we are in that same
place that Jesus is, right? Jesus abides. This is John 15. Abide in me. Well, abiding in him looks
like abiding in the divine dance, abiding in that place of perichoresis, abiding in a perpetual
baptism of divine love, which, listen, I tell you what, out of that place of perichoresis, out of
that place of the divine dance, our capacity, we have the capacity to dream with God. And Jesus
lives in that place and he dreams on a whole other scale. But as we go into the divine dance, get
immersed and baptized in that love, it sets us up to dream with God. And this is what it looks like
to dream with God. He said, therefore, go and make disciples of all nations. See, Jesus isn't looking
to just make a few disciples in a few nations. Jesus' dream is the biggest, most outrageous,
most spectacular dream on the planet. And he is dreaming that every single nation on the face
of the earth will be discipled, will become an echo from heaven, that the divine dance will
permeate every nation, that the sound of heaven will permeate every nation, that every nation
will be an echo from heaven, that the earth will come to a place where the earth mirrors heaven.
This is Jesus' belief. This is what he commissioned us to do. This is what he trained us for and what
he's calling us out to. So let me read it again. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them
to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always to the very end
of the age. How good is that? Wow. It's not just go and make disciples in some nations or in all
nations. Just go and make disciples of all nations. This is wild. So, you know, like in the earth right
now, there's so many things happening. But a couple of more thoughts here and then we're going to
bring this to a close. In the earth right now, there's so many things happening that are causing
fear. There's so many things happening in the earth right now that are causing Christians to
be afraid. They're causing Christians to lose hope. There's despair. There's fear. There's chaos.
The world, there is some crazy stuff happening.
happening in the world right now. But I want to ask you, like,
give you maybe even give you a couple of questions to ask God
that will be really helpful for you right now, which is, you
know, Holy Spirit, are you afraid right now? I guarantee
you he's not, you know, the Father hasn't bitten off more
than he can chew. You know, is Jesus, you know, you think Jesus
is regretting casting such a big vision for us right now? What
are your thoughts on that? No, Jesus is not right. If you
listen, right? I love revelations is come up here. And
if we come up here, if we ascend, if we arise, if we
come, if we ascend, if we and that's part of arising and
ascending is actually we actually rise up, we shift our
attention from what's happening in the earthly realm, we shift
it to what's happening in the throne room, what's happening
into the in the realm of the kingdom. And when we lift our
eyes when we arise, when we ascend, when we transcend this
realm, then ascend into the realm of the kingdom, what
you'll find is that God is not afraid. God is 100% convinced
that everything that he has in store will be fully fulfilled.
God is feeling invincible right now. Heaven is feeling
invincible right now. The sound in heaven, the sound before the
throne is a sound of victory, a sound of triumph, a sound of
invincibility. I had a beautiful encounter with Jesus yesterday.
And man, he was just, you know, when I saw him in this vision,
he just looked triumphant, dressed in this beautiful armor
of gold, and he was triumphant. There was not, there's no
anxiety in heaven, there's no anxiety in the heart of God
about where things are going in the nations. It's exactly the
opposite. Heaven is excited. Heaven is overwhelmed with like
overflowing with triumph. Heaven's overflowing with
victory. Heaven's overflowing with a sense of invincibility.
But you know, if we knew what God knew, knows, then we and if
we could see what God sees, then we would feel just as
invincible as he feels, as we pursue this enormous vision and
calling that God has given us of bringing heaven to earth and
discipling nations, right? In the context of that calling to
disciple nations, God feels invincible. And when we see what
he sees, when we know what he knows, we feel just as
invincible as he does. And I love this quote from Bill
Johnson about hope. He says, anywhere in our life, any area
of your life that isn't glistening with hope is under
the influence of a lie. Let me say that again, any area of your
life that isn't glistening with hope is under the influence of a
lie. And so right now, in the context of everything happening
on the planet, you know what, if we're losing our hope, that
simply means that we're believing a lie because heaven
is not lost its hope. Heaven is on fire with hope right now. So
you know, we really believe that fulfilled dreams, disciple
nations, you know, like raising royalty, that's our standards,
who we are, we believe that fulfilled dreams, disciple
nations, we believe that the dreams that you carry are the
solutions to the problems in this world. And we believe that
when you get into the divine dance, when you get baptized in
the love of the Father, when you find your sonship, when you
discover your father, you'll find that these dreams will
bubble up and they'll come alive. And the more you dance
with the Trinity, your more you'll dream with the Trinity,
which will look like Ephesians 3.20, which looks like the
ability to dream limitless dreams above and beyond all
that you've ever did to ask, dream, think, pray, or even
imagine, well, that realm of dreaming comes from a realm of
being immersed in the divine dance. So that's what we stand
for the divine dance, dreaming with God, standing for
discipling nations. And I tell you what we stand for glistening
hope, where is the world going? I want to read to you one last
scripture, which is Daniel 7.27. And you know, the world is on a
runaway train, but it's not heading into darkness, it's not
heading into despair. Let's hear what, what Daniel 7.27 says
where the world is going, where's this runaway train
headed to? I want to say it's headed to a place of glistening
hope. Then the sovereignty, power and greatness of all the
kingdoms under heaven will be handed over to the holy people
of the Most High. His kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom,
and all rulers will worship and obey him. His kingdom will be an
everlasting kingdom, and all rulers will worship and obey
him. A couple of thoughts as we bring this to a close, but
darkness has a finite existence, right? Every second that ticks
by reduces the, reduces the moments, reduces the timeframe
that darkness has. So darkness is on a diminishing timeline,
say goodbye, darkness. Every second darkness has more reason
to be afraid, more reason to be anxious, because it's on a
diminishing timeline. Darkness has a finite existence, whereas
the kingdom has an everlasting, is an everlasting kingdom, right?
Every second that goes, the kingdom is expanding. And I want
you to imagine this with me for a moment. I like
to imagine this, right? I love to look at a world map or look at a globe and look at this. Imagine
the fruition of this promise because we have this promise that the world is on a runaway train
towards this moment where his kingdom will be an everlasting kingdom and all rulers will worship
and obey him. Whoa, what would the world look like where every ruler in every sphere of society and
every nation is, this is the fulfillment, the fruition of what Jesus has called us to. Jesus
didn't call us to disciple all nations with the expectation that it wouldn't work. He wasn't
trying to dangle a carrot in front of us and say this is never going to work but have a go anyway.
No, Jesus was trying to give us an insight, an indication to where everything's going. The world
is on a runaway train towards glistening hope. He's on a runaway train towards all disciples,
all nations being discipled, becoming an echo of heaven, becoming the earth, becoming a mirror of
heaven and all rulers will worship and obey him and this is the end of the matter. So imagine that,
what does it look like when every tribe and tongue will worship and obey him where whoa, it's just
wild, glorious and we get to be a part of that. We get to make a stand and declare this is heaven,
this is heaven, this is heaven. This is our calling, this is our opportunity, this is our
mandate to be those that make a stand to birth heaven into the earth. So family, that's the
gist of this session. I want to pray for you in a moment but I wanted to just share with you
what our heart is, where we stand as raising royalty so you can kind of connect with what
we're doing because the four secrets, the viral kingdom impact, we utilize them, they're a combination
of business and ministry but the purpose is what are they doing? They're actually seeing an outbreak
of dreams, they're seeing an outbreak of people discovering the father, they're seeing people
immersed into the divine dance, they're seeing a love baptism, they're seeing explosion of signs
and wonders and miracles because one of the biggest keys of those four secrets is the fusion of your
message into your business. So we'll talk about that more. Our next session is on the new economy
of influence. That's going to be, it's just a profound thing. This is stuff that if people
understood this, they will understand how we've been able to impact tens of thousands of lives
in a short space of time. They'll understand how we've been able to rapidly set up over 200 kingdom
businesses, how we've been able to see like a consistent outbreak, a consistent move of the
spirit of God in the digital space and so we want to help people get this out there so tomorrow and
in the next couple of days we're going to be unpacking that some of the business dynamics,
some of the other like foundational understandings of how we make this happen, how we've been able
to generate over seven figures in just over a year in the process of doing this and how this
can really help benefit you. And remember if you join with us and you stick with us to the end of
this challenge, I'm giving away over $10,000 worth of gifts. The online school of sonship that's
usually worth $1,497. I'm going to give that to you as a gift. A business, kingdom business valued
at $4,997. You join with us, I'll give that to you as a gift and I've got some other freebies
that are really epic that I'm going to throw on but I'll keep them as a surprise. So that's
where we're headed for the next three sessions. This is going to be wild and I'll keep you know
just keep watching the emails as well for when we're going live but it'll be same time tomorrow
and let me pray for you as we come to a close that you'll just get a fresh, fresh encounter
with the love of God. But thanks again so much for being part of this journey and let's pray.
Holy Spirit, Papa, Yeshua, thank you so much for every single person that's here right now.
Holy Spirit, I thank you for fresh encounters. Holy Spirit, I thank you for a fresh baptism.
My Holy Spirit, I thank you for the divine balance. I thank you for perichoresis.
I thank you that you created us and that the ultimate calling, the ultimate calling on our
lives is to be loved by you, to be perfectly loved, to be extravagantly loved, to be supernaturally
loved. And Holy Spirit, I'm asking that you activate the Romans 5 5 anointing right now
which says, it is through the Holy Spirit that the love of God is poured into our hearts.
Holy Spirit, I ask right now that you would release that anointing, anointing of a love
encounter. You release the Father's love right now. You release fresh baptisms. You release it.
And I thank you that love looks like something. So right now, I just speak healing. I speak
healing to lungs. I see someone struggling to breathe. I declare healing right now to your
lungs in Jesus name. I declare restoration of hearing in Jesus name. I command healing
into someone's right leg in Jesus name. I command healing there in Jesus name.
lower back pain just to the right of the spine.
I command healing into that right now in Jesus name.
A stiffness in the right shoulder.
I command healing into that and in Jesus name.
I used to call it blanket healing,
that the love of God will hit you right now
and that your body will be healed,
that your mind will be healed,
that your spirit will be healed.
Your heart will be healed.
Lord, I thank you for that.
I just want to read over you Ephesians 3 again.
And Papa, as we read this,
I thank you for supernatural outpouring
of your love right now.
May Christ through your faith actually dwell,
settle down, abide,
make his permanent home in your hearts.
May you be rooted in deep in love
and founded securely on love
that you may have the power and be strong
to apprehend and grasp with all the saints,
God's devoted people, the experience of that love.
What is the breadth and length and height and depth of it
that you may really come to know practically
through experience for yourselves,
the love of Christ,
which far surpasses mere knowledge without experience,
that you may be filled through all your being
unto all the fullness of God,
may have the richest measure of the divine presence
and become a body wholly filled
and flooded with God himself.
Papa, may your glory,
may the very atmosphere of heaven,
may the voice of truth rest on them right now.
May your love burn in them like a fire.
May your hope be their hope.
May your joy be their joy.
May your strength be their strength.
May your love be their love.
Draw, draw us all, Papa,
deeper into the divine dance
than we've ever known in your beautiful name, Jesus.
Amen.
