1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.880
Hey, how are you guys doing?

2
00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:09.880
This is it.

3
00:00:09.880 --> 00:00:17.160
We're about to go live again with round two of Life Redefined.

4
00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:21.760
We're going to upgrade our normal in 14 days.

5
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:26.680
It is fantastic to have you with us tonight.

6
00:00:26.680 --> 00:00:29.880
Really, really great to see the connection going.

7
00:00:29.880 --> 00:00:34.040
Hey, Sara Driel, Sousa, hey, where are you?

8
00:00:34.040 --> 00:00:35.040
Oh, cool.

9
00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:36.040
Welcome.

10
00:00:36.040 --> 00:00:37.040
And Janet.

11
00:00:37.040 --> 00:00:38.680
Great to have you guys.

12
00:00:38.680 --> 00:00:41.040
Hello, hello, hello.

13
00:00:41.040 --> 00:00:44.280
Alicia, hello, beautiful people.

14
00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:48.360
Hey, Tanya, kia ora, kia ora.

15
00:00:48.360 --> 00:00:50.480
Good to see you beautiful people.

16
00:00:50.480 --> 00:00:52.560
Hi, Janet.

17
00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:53.560
Love you guys.

18
00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:56.920
Hopefully, it's sounding a bit better than the other day.

19
00:00:56.920 --> 00:01:00.280
Give me a thumbs up if it's already sounding a little bit better.

20
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:03.960
Hey, Dean, my man.

21
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:04.959
Good to have you with us.

22
00:01:04.959 --> 00:01:05.960
Boom.

23
00:01:05.960 --> 00:01:06.960
Thumbs up.

24
00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:07.960
It's sounding better.

25
00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:08.960
Apologies for the audio.

26
00:01:08.960 --> 00:01:16.000
I had a fancy microphone, and it was so fancy that I failed at one of the settings.

27
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:21.440
So this time, slightly different microphone, more simple, but easier to work with.

28
00:01:21.520 --> 00:01:24.000
Oh, it's great to have you, Tracy.

29
00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:26.080
Yes, it is good to have the peeps.

30
00:01:26.080 --> 00:01:27.560
Phil, my man.

31
00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:29.560
Good to see you guys.

32
00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:31.360
Loving it.

33
00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:34.240
Well, I am really excited.

34
00:01:34.240 --> 00:01:35.240
I'm always excited.

35
00:01:35.240 --> 00:01:36.240
I don't know if you've noticed that.

36
00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:38.040
We've only done a couple of sessions together.

37
00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:39.720
You've probably seen a couple of my videos.

38
00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:44.560
If you know me in real life, you know this is basically who I am all the time.

39
00:01:44.560 --> 00:01:47.200
I'm excited.

40
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.840
Just life is exhilarating.

41
00:01:50.440 --> 00:01:56.200
Exhilarating is such a beautiful word when you want to accurately describe life.

42
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:58.480
Oh, wow.

43
00:01:58.480 --> 00:02:03.640
So great to have you here, great to have those that are here with us already, and great to

44
00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:07.640
be connecting with those that are going to be watching this in delayed coverage.

45
00:02:07.640 --> 00:02:09.440
You guys are amazing.

46
00:02:09.440 --> 00:02:14.520
I'm really looking forward to what Papa is going to do.

47
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:18.800
Our love goes out to Jillian Scott as well.

48
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:25.880
If you haven't connected with Jillian, who's in the group, she has gone to hospital today.

49
00:02:25.880 --> 00:02:29.560
She had a little bit of an injury, but she's doing good, so prayers for Jillian would be

50
00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:30.560
awesome.

51
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:35.280
Alan and Sandy, good to have you guys with us too.

52
00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:38.600
So we're going to talk tonight about the beautiful journey.

53
00:02:38.600 --> 00:02:46.160
Curry, there you are, there you are, and it's the beautiful journey from the orphan illusion

54
00:02:46.160 --> 00:02:54.880
into the bliss of sonship, which is, man, this is the best news ever.

55
00:02:54.880 --> 00:03:02.680
This is the too good to be true news that Jesus was all about, is that we can transition

56
00:03:02.680 --> 00:03:07.600
from chaos into bliss.

57
00:03:07.600 --> 00:03:14.360
We can transition from chaos into shalom, and we're going to jump into that soon.

58
00:03:14.360 --> 00:03:20.880
I'd love to get just a few, I've got a couple of ideas, things that I want to shout out

59
00:03:20.880 --> 00:03:23.800
and work on just getting some engagement with you guys.

60
00:03:23.800 --> 00:03:24.800
Carolyn, welcome.

61
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:28.840
Oh, and Carla, good to have you guys.

62
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:37.040
So doing these online sessions are totally different to normal preaching, like preaching

63
00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:38.320
with a crowd.

64
00:03:38.320 --> 00:03:42.120
If you look, I'm in my office right now, and there's no one here at all.

65
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:44.120
Sue, good to have Sue.

66
00:03:44.880 --> 00:03:48.600
And Liza, just, you guys are awesome.

67
00:03:48.600 --> 00:03:52.800
But preaching in my office to a camera, even though I can see some thumbs up and things

68
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:56.480
like that, is totally different to preaching to an audience.

69
00:03:56.480 --> 00:04:00.560
If you know me much at all, I really like to have a lot of fun, and I'm really kind

70
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:05.720
of sometimes bordering on inappropriate and just in a kind of like a fun, dynamic, crazy

71
00:04:05.720 --> 00:04:06.720
fun way.

72
00:04:06.720 --> 00:04:11.320
I like to have a lot of silly fun and get a lot of audience interaction, so it's really

73
00:04:11.320 --> 00:04:17.839
different when I'm just speaking to a camera, which is awesome as well, because I can see

74
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:23.880
you guys' thumbs up, but I want to generate some more connection as well.

75
00:04:23.880 --> 00:04:30.120
I want to really build a sense of family in this group and see us kind of start drawing

76
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.640
together even though we're online.

77
00:04:32.640 --> 00:04:37.080
You guys are all real people, and I know there's so many amazing people in this group, and

78
00:04:37.080 --> 00:04:43.440
I'd love to start having us interact, connect, and build a sense of divine family here in

79
00:04:43.440 --> 00:04:44.440
the group.

80
00:04:44.440 --> 00:04:46.720
Build a sense of real deep connection.

81
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.920
In New Zealand, we would say whanau ngatanga in Maori.

82
00:04:49.920 --> 00:04:56.920
Hey Jan, hey Alan, thanks for the heads up, good to see you guys.

83
00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:59.760
So first of all, I want to ask a question.

84
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.760
Jane, I want to ask you a question. This question has a three-word answer and I'd love to get you

85
00:05:07.760 --> 00:05:14.800
just typing out these three-word answers. We're going to take a moment to do that shortly.

86
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:21.920
The question is, we're not going to answer this right now, eh Margaret? I'm going to ask the

87
00:05:21.920 --> 00:05:27.280
question and then I'm going to pray and then after I've prayed it'll be a chance there. I'm just

88
00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:32.320
going to create some space for you guys to answer this question in three words, okay? So just type

89
00:05:32.320 --> 00:05:39.040
those words down and post them. So the question, don't worry about answering it just yet. Thanks

90
00:05:39.040 --> 00:05:45.680
Sandy, good to have you here. The question, I'm going to ask the question, it's a three-word

91
00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:50.640
answer, then I'm going to pray and just chuck out a couple of Bible verses and then I want to hear

92
00:05:50.640 --> 00:06:01.440
from you guys some of these answers. Hi Carla. So the question is, are you ready for it?

93
00:06:01.440 --> 00:06:08.960
I'd love to hear your top three struggles with God. If you had to put just three words,

94
00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:14.640
the top three struggles and challenges that you've had with God, what would be your top

95
00:06:15.200 --> 00:06:20.800
three words? Okay, you're not going to answer those right now. I'm going to pray. For me,

96
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:30.400
it would be condemnation and it would be disconnection and it would be inadequacy.

97
00:06:30.400 --> 00:06:36.000
Those would be my three big ones. So I'm going to pray now. You have a little think about what

98
00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:41.280
would your three be and once I finish praying, we'll just do a little bit of shouting out on

99
00:06:41.280 --> 00:06:50.800
what would your top three struggles be in your life with God. So let's pray. Just join with me

100
00:06:50.800 --> 00:07:01.760
as we set our attention on the presence of God. Abba Father, King Jesus, Holy Spirit, beautiful

101
00:07:01.760 --> 00:07:09.360
Trinity. I thank you so much for your presence absolutely everywhere that every single person

102
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:18.560
is right now. Your glory already fills the room. Wow. Wow. And we stop right now

103
00:07:22.800 --> 00:07:24.880
and we'll put our attention on you Trinity.

104
00:07:27.120 --> 00:07:36.240
And we give you all the honor. We give you all the praise. We give you all the joy. We give you

105
00:07:36.320 --> 00:07:45.600
all the glory. You're perfect in every way. Our hearts burn for you. We love you and Trinity,

106
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:53.520
we welcome you to overflow in this conversation, to overflow in our hearts, to overflow in our

107
00:07:53.520 --> 00:07:59.920
lives, to overflow through this camera and microphone all over the world that your

108
00:08:00.400 --> 00:08:06.560
glory would just be tangibly released into those rooms that your manifested presence

109
00:08:07.200 --> 00:08:15.120
would descend on people. Whoa. That waves of your liquid love would just begin to flow through

110
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:23.120
people's bodies that a baptism in your love would just begin to saturate people right where they

111
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:30.160
are. Whoa. Just like your love is saturating me right now. I ask that your love would saturate

112
00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:38.640
and baptize and immerse and be poured out over every single person. Whoa. In Jesus name Lord,

113
00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:44.240
let your glory, let your glory build. Let the atmosphere of heaven flood this place

114
00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:51.120
and Holy Spirit, Abba Father, King Jesus, beautiful Trinity. We ask that you swallow us up in the

115
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:57.040
divine dance. We ask that you swallow us up in seamless union. We ask that you surround us with

116
00:08:57.040 --> 00:09:03.520
the atmosphere of heaven and you just engulf us into your union, into your oneness, and that you

117
00:09:03.520 --> 00:09:10.320
would swallow us up in your love, that we would be completely immersed and saturated and consumed in

118
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:20.240
a baptism of your perfect love. Whoa. That it would leave us undone and wrecked, that you would be the

119
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:27.440
hero of the moment, that your presence, your tangible reality, your goodness, your kindness,

120
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:32.720
your power, your love, the wonder of who you are. We ask that you would be

121
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:40.000
center stage and in the spotlight in Jesus name. Whoa. Amen. Oh.

122
00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:47.440
Nothing better than getting undone in the presence of God. Hey, we're going to be talking about

123
00:09:47.920 --> 00:09:52.160
the state of sonship, so let me just read out a few verses and I just would

124
00:09:52.880 --> 00:09:56.160
just encourage you, just marinate in these verses right now as I

125
00:09:56.160 --> 00:09:59.120
just read out some scripture for you that's all about

126
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.040
the state of sonship. So just where you are, just kind of get into a state where you can relax,

127
00:10:05.040 --> 00:10:10.720
where you're like, wow, you can just receive the goodness and the glory and the kindness of God,

128
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:15.200
and where you can receive a baptism in his love, just right where you are right now.

129
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:23.360
Let me read out a few beautiful verses. Matthew 3, 16 to 17, this is in the message.

130
00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:35.520
The moment Jesus came up out of the baptismal waters, the skies opened up and he saw God's

131
00:10:35.520 --> 00:10:41.440
spirit. So right there we have the Trinity, the father, the son, and the spirit. Jesus saw God's

132
00:10:41.440 --> 00:10:51.440
spirit. It looks like a dove descending and landing on him. And along with the spirit, a voice.

133
00:10:52.000 --> 00:11:00.160
And what is this voice? It's the voice of the father. The voice says, this is my son chosen

134
00:11:00.720 --> 00:11:14.160
and marked by my love, the delight of my life. Wow. And as we looked at John 17, a couple of

135
00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:23.520
days ago, Jesus said that the father loves us with the exact same love that he loves Jesus.

136
00:11:23.520 --> 00:11:30.240
And in mature love, it culminates in total delight. So this is the father's love for you

137
00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:39.440
revealed here. It says, this is my son chosen and marked by my love, the delight of my life.

138
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:46.240
And you, right where you are right now, exactly as you are without performing, without doing

139
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:52.400
anything at all, even if you're in your worst day, your worst hour, your worst season or your

140
00:11:52.400 --> 00:12:00.160
best hour, your best day, your best season, you have been chosen and marked by the love of the

141
00:12:00.160 --> 00:12:08.800
father and you are the delight of his life. Wow. You're the essence of the delight of the Trinity.

142
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:15.600
You are the fuel of the Trinity's delight. They love you so much. Just who you are is,

143
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:23.440
you're the fuel of the delight of the Trinity. Wow. And then Matthew 17, five. So that was Matthew

144
00:12:23.440 --> 00:12:29.920
three, 16 to 17, Matthew three, uh, sorry, Matthew 17 verse five. Uh, it's on the Mount of

145
00:12:29.920 --> 00:12:36.880
Transfiguration and the message says this while he was going on babbling like this, a light radiant

146
00:12:36.880 --> 00:12:46.960
cloud enveloped them, just swallowed them up and sounding from deep in the cloud of voice.

147
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:52.480
And this is the father's voice. Again, there's two times when the father speaks audibly from heaven

148
00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:59.040
and the new Testament over Jesus. And guess what he wants to say again, that the number one, uh,

149
00:12:59.040 --> 00:13:03.680
message, the number one concern, the number one thing on the heart of the father, when he audibly

150
00:13:03.680 --> 00:13:10.000
speaks from heaven over his son, the first time it was, you were marked, uh, by my love. You're

151
00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:17.920
the delight of my life. And the second time he says, this is my son marked by my love. Wow.

152
00:13:17.920 --> 00:13:27.360
Marked by my love. Uh, wow. Marked by my love. The focus of my delight. Listen to him.

153
00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:35.600
Wow. How good is that? That the number one thing on the heart of the father for his son, the number

154
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:41.920
one, the most important critical thing on the mind, on the heart of our father in heaven has

155
00:13:41.920 --> 00:13:48.640
always been and will always be that we are fully persuaded that we know that we are certain without

156
00:13:48.640 --> 00:13:56.560
a shadow of doubt that we are the focus of his delight, that we are the delight of his life.

157
00:13:56.560 --> 00:14:03.680
That's what he wants us to know. Oh, wow. That's the reality that he wants us to live in. The,

158
00:14:03.680 --> 00:14:08.000
the, the place that he wants us to live in as a moment by moment existence,

159
00:14:09.360 --> 00:14:13.120
enveloped, you know, that city, they were enveloped by the cloud, enveloped by the

160
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:18.400
presence, enveloped, totally swallowed up, consumed by this baptism in love.

161
00:14:18.640 --> 00:14:26.560
Wow. Wow. And that is what is on the heart of the father for you tonight, right where you are. If

162
00:14:26.560 --> 00:14:32.800
he could break into your world and audibly speak to you right now, if that was, if that's what

163
00:14:32.800 --> 00:14:37.600
happened, the number one thing that our father in heaven would want to say to you, the number

164
00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:43.200
one message, the number one thing that he would want to impart to you is the conviction, the full

165
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:50.160
persuasion that you are the absolute focus of his delight and you are the absolute complete

166
00:14:50.640 --> 00:14:57.200
delight of his life. And, and knowing that will leave you, he wants to have you marked by his

167
00:14:57.200 --> 00:15:00.000
love. He wants to have you marked by his love.

168
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.920
like an encounter with His love that marks you. An encounter with His love that changes you forever

169
00:15:05.920 --> 00:15:10.880
so that you are never never never the same. And wow there are love encounters

170
00:15:10.880 --> 00:15:17.840
aplenty on store tonight. So I hope that was beautiful. I hope you liked that. Let me jam

171
00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:24.080
off a couple more scriptures for you. Zephaniah 3 17. I love this. For the Lord your God

172
00:15:25.040 --> 00:15:34.000
is living among you. He is a mighty Savior. He will take delight in you. Yes He will take

173
00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:41.280
delight in you. He loves you. He will take delight in you. He will take delight in you

174
00:15:41.280 --> 00:15:52.400
with gladness. With His love He will calm all your fears. Wow. And He will rejoice

175
00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:59.440
over you with joyful songs. This is your Papa. This is your Daddy. He will rejoice over you

176
00:15:59.440 --> 00:16:05.040
with joyful songs. This is who He is. This is how He rolls. This is how He acts. This is how He lives.

177
00:16:05.040 --> 00:16:10.320
This is how He moves and breathes. This is the dance of the Trinity. It's a dance of radical,

178
00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:18.160
unconditional, extravagant, perpetual, non-stop delight over you. It's like when you're listening

179
00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:23.280
to the Trinity, if you're tuned in, if you're actually tuned into the heart of the Father,

180
00:16:23.280 --> 00:16:28.240
if you're tuned in to the heart of the Trinity, that station is called Bliss FM.

181
00:16:29.040 --> 00:16:34.320
If you can hear the true nature of the Father, if you can hear the true nature of the Trinity,

182
00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:40.560
if you can hear the true, the sound that's emanating from heaven over you, that sound,

183
00:16:40.560 --> 00:16:44.800
it's like if it was a radio station and you tuned in, it would be called Bliss FM.

184
00:16:45.760 --> 00:16:50.240
And so some of us tonight, I just declare in the name of Jesus, that some of us tonight are

185
00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:58.720
changing our station from Chaos FM, from Depression FM, from Broken FM, from Distraught FM,

186
00:16:58.720 --> 00:17:06.160
from Disconnected FM, from Separated FM, from Orphan FM, into Sonship FM, into the Bliss,

187
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:17.200
into Bliss FM. Yes. Oh, come on. So good word there. Sandy's just put up Song of Songs 8,

188
00:17:17.200 --> 00:17:22.560
which is actually on my list of scriptures as well. Sandy, that's very cool. Check this out,

189
00:17:22.560 --> 00:17:30.720
Isaiah 62, no longer will you be called deserted or name your land desolate, but you will be called

190
00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:37.520
my delight is in her. Wow. There he goes again, the Trinity, Old Testament, New Testament. They're

191
00:17:37.520 --> 00:17:44.320
so delighted in us and that's their heart to include us in this divine dance of delight and

192
00:17:44.320 --> 00:17:51.200
bliss. It's always been their heart. It's always been their attention. Yes, Carla, Bliss FM.

193
00:17:51.920 --> 00:17:58.720
And your land will be called married for the Lord will take delight in you.

194
00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:08.560
The Lord will take delight in you and your land will be married. As a young man marries a young

195
00:18:08.560 --> 00:18:15.600
woman, so will your builder marry you. And as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride,

196
00:18:16.080 --> 00:18:26.240
so will your God rejoice over you. Wow. Wow. So, man, just think about that. Think about how

197
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:34.240
delighted young men are over their brand new wife. Oh, my gosh. That is, there's a lot of

198
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:40.400
excitement, a lot of delight, a lot of rejoicing when a young man goes, oh, my gosh, I have won

199
00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:49.280
the pick of the prize. I have the ultimate bride. I have I have landed it. Wow. I've landed. I have

200
00:18:49.280 --> 00:18:55.680
this is the woman of my dreams. That that rejoicing is intense. It's extreme. You couldn't

201
00:18:55.680 --> 00:19:01.920
get a like a sense of greater rejoicing. The testosterone levels are extreme. The hormone

202
00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:08.000
levels are extreme. The emotions are running through the roof when a young man rejoices over

203
00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:14.000
his bride. Wow. And that's how the Trinity rejoices over you. That's how they're rejoicing

204
00:19:14.000 --> 00:19:21.600
over you right now. Romans 5, 8. But God demonstrates his own love. Now, remember,

205
00:19:22.560 --> 00:19:29.520
love, mature love, when love is fully matured, it looks like delight. When love is fully matured,

206
00:19:29.520 --> 00:19:36.160
it looks like delight. So, but God demonstrates his own love. Or you could read it,

207
00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:42.480
but God demonstrates his own delight for us in this. So even while we're still sinners,

208
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:48.560
he's delighted over us. Wow. Come on. A papa that's delighted in us before we even realize it.

209
00:19:48.560 --> 00:19:53.360
But God demonstrates his own love or delight for us in this. While we were still sinners,

210
00:19:53.360 --> 00:19:59.920
Christ died for us. Totally, radically, outrageously unconditional.

211
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:07.200
Song of Songs 8, set me as a seal upon your heart, as a seal upon your arm, for love is as strong as

212
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:14.720
death, jealousy as fierce as the grave, its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord.

213
00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:23.920
How awesome is that? The flame of the Lord, the flame of the Lord is His love. The fiery burning

214
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:30.720
intensity of the Lord is His love. Let's read that again. For love is as strong as death,

215
00:20:31.280 --> 00:20:38.320
jealousy as fierce as the grave, its flashes are flashes of fire, the very flame of the Lord. So

216
00:20:38.320 --> 00:20:44.560
the flame of the Lord, the fire of the Lord, the all-consuming fire is an all-consuming fire of

217
00:20:44.560 --> 00:20:53.200
love. It's an all-consuming baptism in love. Yes! And here's a little bit of what that produces for

218
00:20:53.200 --> 00:21:01.680
us. John 15 11, here's a radical word from Jesus. John 15 11, I have spoken these things unto you.

219
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:06.160
So basically he's summarizing, here's why I've even preached the gospel to you.

220
00:21:06.800 --> 00:21:11.760
Even, even while, so this is, yeah, Jesus is saying this is the, like, the summary of the

221
00:21:11.760 --> 00:21:15.840
gospel. Here's why I've brought you this message. Here's the purpose. Here's the fruit that the

222
00:21:15.840 --> 00:21:22.000
gospel will produce when you get what the gospel is all about. I have spoken these things unto you

223
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:29.760
so that my joy will continuously infuse you. What? That's the purpose of the gospel right there.

224
00:21:29.760 --> 00:21:35.680
When you get the gospel, this is what happens. When you understand the message that Jesus brought,

225
00:21:35.680 --> 00:21:40.080
this is what happens. When you get what he was talking about, this is the fruit in your life.

226
00:21:40.080 --> 00:21:46.320
I have spoken these things unto you so that my joy will infuse you. What? Yes, there right there,

227
00:21:46.320 --> 00:21:52.080
Jesus is saying this is the purpose of the gospel. When you get the gospel, you'll be infused

228
00:21:52.080 --> 00:21:57.280
with divine joy. You'll be infused with divine ecstasy. You'll be infused with divine bliss.

229
00:21:57.280 --> 00:22:01.920
The bliss of the Trinity will be yours. The ecstasy of the Trinity will be yours. The delight

230
00:22:01.920 --> 00:22:08.480
of the Trinity will be yours. The same exact same state of being of the Trinity will be yours. Yes.

231
00:22:09.280 --> 00:22:15.520
And then it goes on to say you don't have to invent your own joy. If you can tap into mine,

232
00:22:15.520 --> 00:22:22.080
this is the ultimate bliss. Oh wow. We're not called to just create our own joy. We're not

233
00:22:22.080 --> 00:22:28.560
going to try to work it up, but we actually participate in the same joy that the Trinity

234
00:22:28.560 --> 00:22:35.760
shares in the divine dance. There's this unbroken cycle of divine love. As we get swallowed up in

235
00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:43.840
that unbroken cycle of divine love, when we catch the gospel, when we understand what the gospel is

236
00:22:43.840 --> 00:22:49.680
about, it leads to us being swallowed up in a baptism of divine love. It leads to us being

237
00:22:49.680 --> 00:22:58.400
consumed. It leads to us being absolutely immersed and perfectly, seamlessly, effortlessly participating

238
00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:03.600
in this divine union. Hey, loving all the comments, guys. Thanks for the comments.

239
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:09.280
Whoa. So encouraging seeing those comments. So yeah, appreciate it. Thanks for that. And

240
00:23:09.280 --> 00:23:14.080
great having everyone watching in. Are these good scriptures? Are you loving some Bible right now?

241
00:23:14.080 --> 00:23:20.080
The Bible of bliss? Give a thumbs up if you are loving this Bible right now. I'm getting so

242
00:23:20.080 --> 00:23:26.320
blessed, blissed out, blasted. Whoa. Just reading the Bible. It's the Bible of bliss.

243
00:23:26.560 --> 00:23:36.080
Oh, yes. It's good stuff. This is good vitamin. Psalm 16, verse 11. Oh, yes. There's some thumbs

244
00:23:36.080 --> 00:23:43.600
up. People liking this good Bible action. Psalm 16, 11. You make known to me the path of life.

245
00:23:43.600 --> 00:23:53.040
In your presence, there is fullness. Oh, fullness. Yes. Fullness of joy. Yes. In his presence,

246
00:23:53.120 --> 00:23:59.760
in the fellowship of the Trinity, is the fullness of joy. And we get included into that. We

247
00:23:59.760 --> 00:24:07.360
participate in that. We participate in the fullness of joy. Wow. It is right here because his presence

248
00:24:07.360 --> 00:24:13.600
is here. Oh, man. I'm feeling that joy exploding. If you don't realize right now, what's happening

249
00:24:13.600 --> 00:24:19.040
for me is I'm having a supernatural experience as the bliss and the love and the fire and the joy

250
00:24:19.040 --> 00:24:24.800
and the ecstasy of the Trinity. The divine dance is just exploding on the inside of me right now.

251
00:24:24.800 --> 00:24:32.080
It's like under my skin right now is like serious spiritual fireworks going off of bliss and joy,

252
00:24:32.080 --> 00:24:39.280
and I am loving it. So, Psalm 16, 11. You make known to me the path of life. In your presence,

253
00:24:39.280 --> 00:24:46.560
there is fullness of joy. At your right hand are pleasures forever. More pleasures and joy

254
00:24:46.640 --> 00:24:56.160
and bliss. This is good Bible. Romans 15, 13. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and

255
00:24:56.160 --> 00:24:59.600
peace as you trust in him so that you may overflow

256
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:03.500
with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

257
00:25:03.500 --> 00:25:05.500
What? Let's read that again.

258
00:25:05.500 --> 00:25:09.000
May the God of hope fill you with all joy.

259
00:25:09.000 --> 00:25:12.000
Hey Uri, love you. Good to have you here from Germany.

260
00:25:12.000 --> 00:25:13.000
Wow.

261
00:25:13.000 --> 00:25:21.000
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him

262
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:28.500
so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

263
00:25:28.500 --> 00:25:31.500
May He fill you with all joy and peace. May He fill you.

264
00:25:31.500 --> 00:25:34.000
And right now, may that be a living word.

265
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:37.500
May that be a living word that jumps through the microphone and the camera

266
00:25:37.500 --> 00:25:39.000
and gets you right where you're sitting.

267
00:25:39.000 --> 00:25:45.000
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and all peace

268
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:48.000
that you may overflow with hope.

269
00:25:48.000 --> 00:25:49.000
Come on.

270
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:51.500
By the power of the Holy Spirit.

271
00:25:51.500 --> 00:25:52.500
Boom!

272
00:25:52.500 --> 00:25:54.500
Let that come get you.

273
00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:56.500
Philippians 3 verse 1.

274
00:25:56.500 --> 00:26:04.000
The conclusion of your faith is extreme gladness in the Lord.

275
00:26:04.000 --> 00:26:05.500
Extreme gladness of the Lord.

276
00:26:05.500 --> 00:26:10.500
The conclusion of your faith is extreme gladness in the Lord.

277
00:26:10.500 --> 00:26:14.000
He is your constant reference to bliss.

278
00:26:14.000 --> 00:26:16.000
Oh, this is the Bible we're reading.

279
00:26:16.000 --> 00:26:18.500
It's just ecstatic goodness.

280
00:26:18.500 --> 00:26:23.000
He is your constant reference to bliss.

281
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:26.000
I'm not just saying this to be repetitive.

282
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:29.500
Joy is your fortress.

283
00:26:29.500 --> 00:26:37.500
There is no safer place to be but to be ecstatically happy.

284
00:26:37.500 --> 00:26:38.500
Oh.

285
00:26:38.500 --> 00:26:39.500
Mmm.

286
00:26:39.500 --> 00:26:41.500
Come on.

287
00:26:41.500 --> 00:26:42.500
Wow.

288
00:26:42.500 --> 00:26:46.500
The conclusion of your faith is extreme gladness in the Lord.

289
00:26:46.500 --> 00:26:49.500
He is your constant reference to bliss.

290
00:26:49.500 --> 00:26:52.500
I'm not just saying this to be repetitive.

291
00:26:52.500 --> 00:26:54.500
Joy is your fortress.

292
00:26:54.500 --> 00:27:00.500
There is no safer place to be but to be ecstatically happy.

293
00:27:00.500 --> 00:27:02.000
Philippians 3 verse 1.

294
00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:03.500
That's the mirror translation.

295
00:27:03.500 --> 00:27:08.500
If you haven't got a copy of the mirror translation, you will love it.

296
00:27:08.500 --> 00:27:11.500
Wow.

297
00:27:11.500 --> 00:27:13.500
Jude 24 to 25.

298
00:27:13.500 --> 00:27:17.500
Now to him who is able to keep you without stumbling or slipping or falling

299
00:27:17.500 --> 00:27:21.500
and to present you unblemished, blameless, and faultless

300
00:27:21.500 --> 00:27:28.500
before the presence of his glory in triumphant joy and exaltation

301
00:27:28.500 --> 00:27:30.500
with unspeakable.

302
00:27:30.500 --> 00:27:31.500
What did you just say?

303
00:27:31.500 --> 00:27:32.500
Yes.

304
00:27:32.500 --> 00:27:38.500
With unspeakable ecstatic delight.

305
00:27:38.500 --> 00:27:40.500
That's what happens.

306
00:27:40.500 --> 00:27:43.500
That's what happens to you.

307
00:27:43.500 --> 00:27:44.500
That's how it culminates.

308
00:27:44.500 --> 00:27:46.500
That's where it goes.

309
00:27:46.500 --> 00:27:50.500
You come to this place of triumphant joy and exaltation

310
00:27:50.500 --> 00:27:55.500
with unspeakable ecstatic delight.

311
00:27:55.500 --> 00:27:58.500
Now that's what sonship looks like.

312
00:27:58.500 --> 00:27:59.500
1 Peter 1.8.

313
00:27:59.500 --> 00:28:02.500
Though you have not seen him, you love him.

314
00:28:02.500 --> 00:28:05.500
And even though you do not see him now, you believe in him

315
00:28:05.500 --> 00:28:12.500
and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy.

316
00:28:16.500 --> 00:28:18.500
Three more scriptures for you.

317
00:28:18.500 --> 00:28:20.500
All juicy good ones.

318
00:28:20.500 --> 00:28:23.500
1 Thessalonians 5.16-18

319
00:28:23.500 --> 00:28:26.500
Rejoice at all times. Pray without ceasing.

320
00:28:26.500 --> 00:28:31.500
Give thanks in every circumstance for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.

321
00:28:31.500 --> 00:28:36.500
If you've ever been confused or wondered what the will of God for you is,

322
00:28:36.500 --> 00:28:38.500
give thanks in all circumstances.

323
00:28:38.500 --> 00:28:40.500
There you go. That's a power line right there.

324
00:28:40.500 --> 00:28:43.500
Are you confused about the will of God for your life?

325
00:28:43.500 --> 00:28:48.500
The first thing you need to know is that the number one will of God for your life

326
00:28:48.500 --> 00:28:51.500
is that you would be thankful right here, right now.

327
00:28:51.500 --> 00:28:54.500
Are you thankful? If you're thankful, if you're rejoicing,

328
00:28:54.500 --> 00:28:56.500
then boom, you're in the will of God.

329
00:28:56.500 --> 00:28:58.500
That's the first thing you need to get right.

330
00:28:58.500 --> 00:29:00.500
You can take care of the other things after that.

331
00:29:00.500 --> 00:29:02.500
It's much easier when you get the first things first.

332
00:29:02.500 --> 00:29:05.500
The first thing in order to walk in the will of God

333
00:29:05.500 --> 00:29:08.500
is rejoice and be thankful in all circumstances.

334
00:29:08.500 --> 00:29:12.500
Once you tip that box, the rest will come easily.

335
00:29:12.500 --> 00:29:15.500
Philippians 4 verse 4. This is the mirror translation again.

336
00:29:15.500 --> 00:29:20.500
Joy is not a luxury option.

337
00:29:20.500 --> 00:29:23.500
Oh, joy is not a luxury option.

338
00:29:23.500 --> 00:29:25.500
Joy is your constant.

339
00:29:25.500 --> 00:29:32.500
Your union in the Lord is your permanent source of delight.

340
00:29:32.500 --> 00:29:34.500
Not a sauce like a tomato sauce.

341
00:29:34.500 --> 00:29:36.500
Different type of sauce.

342
00:29:36.500 --> 00:29:37.500
But it's a good sauce.

343
00:29:37.500 --> 00:29:41.500
Even if this was like a tomato sauce type of sauce and you could get it in a bottle,

344
00:29:41.500 --> 00:29:43.500
this is the sauce that I would want.

345
00:29:43.500 --> 00:29:44.500
I would want this sauce.

346
00:29:44.500 --> 00:29:45.500
I would put this sauce on my breakfast.

347
00:29:45.500 --> 00:29:47.500
I would put this sauce on my lunch.

348
00:29:47.500 --> 00:29:49.500
I would put this sauce on my ice cream.

349
00:29:49.500 --> 00:29:50.500
Yes, that's right.

350
00:29:50.500 --> 00:29:52.500
You would put this sauce on your ice cream

351
00:29:52.500 --> 00:29:56.500
because this is Philippians 4 verse 4 in the mirror translation.

352
00:29:56.500 --> 00:29:58.500
Joy is not a luxury option.

353
00:29:58.500 --> 00:30:00.500
Joy is your constant.

354
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:09.520
constant. Your union in the Lord is your permanent source of delight. Ah that's a good source. You

355
00:30:09.520 --> 00:30:17.920
want the source of delight. So I might as well say it again. Rejoice in the Lord always. Rejoice

356
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:26.800
in the Lord always. And the last one. Psalm 37 verse 4. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will

357
00:30:26.800 --> 00:30:33.360
give you the desires of your heart. Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the

358
00:30:33.360 --> 00:30:40.320
desires of your heart. And when you are walking in your sonship. When you are walking in your

359
00:30:40.320 --> 00:30:50.960
sonship, delight. Delight becomes your. Delight becomes your normal. Delight becomes your

360
00:30:51.680 --> 00:30:59.600
primary emotion. Wow. Delight becomes your primary emotion when you discover your sonship.

361
00:30:59.600 --> 00:31:04.160
When you are walking in your sonship. Delight becomes your primary emotion. How good is that?

362
00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:12.960
Ah that is some seriously good chicken. Right. Now we are going to. I want to just

363
00:31:13.600 --> 00:31:19.760
give you that chance now to answer the question. Now if you just jumped on. There was a question

364
00:31:19.760 --> 00:31:25.280
that I asked right at the beginning. And the question is in three words. In three words I'd

365
00:31:25.280 --> 00:31:31.760
like you to describe your biggest. Your top three struggles. So just three words. What are your top

366
00:31:31.760 --> 00:31:39.200

historically over your life. Ah what have been the top three struggles that you have had ah in

368
00:31:45.920 --> 00:31:49.760
your God relationship. In your Christian experience. I'm going to create a little bit of

369
00:31:49.760 --> 00:31:53.920
space now for you to answer this. I'd love you just to write them down. Ah write them down now

massive. Massive challenges that we face on a regular basis. Those are. They're common things.

381
00:33:04.560 --> 00:33:09.600
It's just. They're cycles over and over again. Perpetuating themselves all over the world. Yep.

00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:19.280
Performance. Rejection. Ah struggling. Resting. Inadequacy. Ah yep. Boom. A lot of stuff man.

00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:31.040
and intimacy. Yep. Distance. Resting. Receiving. Yep. Those are. Those are massive ones.

385
00:33:31.280 --> 00:33:42.320
Um now ah just give me a thumbs up if um if we're still live. I've just seen something.

Just ah yeah. Trust. Shame. Rejection. Yeah. Forgiveness. Worthiness. Temptation. Yeah.

387
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:56.000
Massive stuff. So we're. Yeah. All over the world. Yeah. Unqualified. Don't know how to hear the

388
00:33:56.000 --> 00:34:01.360
voice of the Holy Spirit. Fatherless. Oh massive stuff. Yeah. Fear. Rejection. Intimacy. Yeah those

390
00:34:06.560 --> 00:34:13.040
uh just gives me updates if there's any any issues. So those are massive things and those are all like

391
00:34:13.040 --> 00:34:20.320
those are all a massive part of the orphan illusion. Um so we're gonna. I'm gonna jump into

392
00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:28.400
our our our session tonight and jump into the meat of that. At the end um yeah oh wrong father

393
00:34:28.400 --> 00:34:34.960
figure. Yep that's massive Margaret as well. At the end I'm gonna ask you uh actually no we'll do

394
00:34:34.960 --> 00:34:41.600
this yeah we'll we'll do this uh we'll do this at the you know maybe sometime in the end or

395
00:34:41.600 --> 00:34:46.639
oh yeah performance pressure. Those are massive. Shame. Trustworthiness. Yep. Huge things there.

396
00:34:46.639 --> 00:34:51.760
Inadequacy. Performance. Disconnection. Yeah Dean those are those are massive issues for all of us

397
00:34:51.760 --> 00:34:56.239
and I don't think that anyone's gonna come up with something that that the rest of us wouldn't

398
00:34:56.239 --> 00:34:59.760
identify with or be like oh no I didn't have that. I mean most of us

399
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.720
gone through all of these cycles and they're not just one-off things that we just have that one

400
00:35:04.720 --> 00:35:11.280
moment it's like man we are dealing with these on a regular basis even um and these so many of

401
00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:16.720
these are just gnarly gnarly feelings uh that you experience and they can be they can really come on

402
00:35:16.720 --> 00:35:22.720
with so much pressure who uh just give a just give a thumbs up if you felt the extreme pressure

403
00:35:23.360 --> 00:35:28.400
of these feelings just feel like that's going to crush your world you know you've had a sense of

404
00:35:28.400 --> 00:35:33.360
inadequacy that's so strong or a sense of rejection or a sense of disconnection or a sense

405
00:35:33.360 --> 00:35:38.960
of condemnation or shame or unworthiness or this feeling you've been so unlovable that the pressure

406
00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:45.440
just comes on your life and just like oh man this is intense just yep you've been you guys have all

407
00:35:45.440 --> 00:35:53.680
been there you've all felt that uh yeah man i have felt that so much so many times i can't even count

408
00:35:53.680 --> 00:35:58.480
how many times i've been there how long i've lived in it i don't know how many years i lived in it

409
00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:03.840
but i struggle with it um but you know as we as we go on later on in the message a little bit

410
00:36:03.840 --> 00:36:10.160
yep more condemnation trust shame fear torment rejection yeah more of those crazy issues coming

411
00:36:10.160 --> 00:36:16.400
out for people so much of that but um as we go on in the message i'm gonna ask uh yeah inadequacy

412
00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:22.400
performance trust all these same themes that we're all struggling with these all over and over again

413
00:36:22.400 --> 00:36:27.680
we're going to start putting those to death we'll go to the root religion doesn't deal with the root

414
00:36:27.680 --> 00:36:32.720
cause of all this junk so it means that we have to keep on dealing with it cyclically but jesus

415
00:36:32.720 --> 00:36:38.080
uh has a promise and a pathway pathway for us to actually put those things to death forever

416
00:36:38.080 --> 00:36:42.000
so that we don't actually have to live with them that was never the divine design that's

417
00:36:42.000 --> 00:36:46.640
not a part of the divine dance uh and that's not a part of our destiny or our calling

418
00:36:46.640 --> 00:36:50.960
uh religion won't solve that for you but jesus will totally solve that for you and the truth

419
00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:56.800
will absolutely completely liberate you from that in every way so that you never have to deal with

420
00:36:56.800 --> 00:37:02.560
it again that's legitimately how the truth works it doesn't set you free partially whom the sun

421
00:37:02.560 --> 00:37:08.720
sets free is free indeed from all of that junk now if we're just going to play religious games

422
00:37:08.720 --> 00:37:13.600
if we're going to just stick with the mainstream gospel that's perpetuating a viral outbreak of

423
00:37:13.600 --> 00:37:17.360
orphans then i'm sorry we're just going to have to live with that stuff over and over that will

424
00:37:17.360 --> 00:37:23.520
just be our constant battle our constant struggle dealing with all this junk that's perpetuated by

425
00:37:23.520 --> 00:37:30.720
the orphan illusion but when we discover the truth that jesus came to articulate a truth that actually

426
00:37:30.720 --> 00:37:37.920
sets us free the cross revealed a truth a powerful truth that genuinely actually will set us free

427
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:44.320
the blood of jesus genuinely does cleanse us genuinely does set us free absolutely perfectly

428
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:50.480
completely free from every single issue that's been listed there that's all junk associated with

429
00:37:50.480 --> 00:37:56.160
the orphan illusion it's got nothing to do with our sonship it's got nothing to do with our freedom

430
00:37:56.160 --> 00:38:00.960
it's got nothing to do with the divine dance it's got nothing to do with where we're going it's got

431
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:07.040
nothing to do with our calling at all and it's a tragic tragic shame that we live in a world we

432
00:38:07.040 --> 00:38:13.280
live in a culture even our christian culture where all of that is the norm you know like that is

433
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:19.440
normal that is normal normal normal and so we are going to discover the truth that jesus promised

434
00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:25.120
would set us free from all that junk we're going to start lighting it up burning up putting it to

435
00:38:25.120 --> 00:38:30.480
death ending it dealing with the root issue not just through tonight but through this 14 days

436
00:38:30.480 --> 00:38:37.280
we're going to strike a death blow to all that junk i call it the orphan illusion that's what i call

437
00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:42.720
it this it's all associated with this thing called the orphan illusion and we're going on a beautiful

438
00:38:42.720 --> 00:38:46.720
journey we started we've already started this journey but we're going to go deeper and deeper

439
00:38:46.720 --> 00:38:54.320
into it but this beautiful journey from the orphan illusion into the bliss of sonship it literally

440
00:38:54.320 --> 00:39:02.000
can all melt away okay it can melt away it can melt away it can be gone it can be we can step

441
00:39:02.000 --> 00:39:07.040
into a brand new normal yep that's done right that's absolutely right it's not marketing it's

442
00:39:07.040 --> 00:39:12.480
the promise of jesus you can upgrade your normal you can upgrade your normal and we're going to do

443
00:39:12.480 --> 00:39:20.720
a massive job on it in these 14 days crikey we're chewing through the time but i hope you guys are

444
00:39:21.360 --> 00:39:29.440
loving this so um for i'm gonna i'm gonna give you another scripture right now we're gonna go

445
00:39:29.440 --> 00:39:36.000
to romans 8 15 this is in the amplified version so romans 8 15 in the amplified it reads like this

446
00:39:36.000 --> 00:39:43.680
the amplified classic for the spirit which you have now received say i've received that the

447
00:39:43.680 --> 00:39:49.520
spirit which you have now received you've received that is not a spirit of slavery to put you once

448
00:39:49.520 --> 00:39:55.280
more in bondage to fear that's right the spirit you have received is not a spirit of slavery to

449
00:39:55.280 --> 00:40:00.000
put you once more in bondage to fear so fear stress worry anxiety

450
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:07.560
Heidi, disconnection, all of those, all of that, that is not the spirit that you've received.

451
00:40:07.560 --> 00:40:12.000
But we have received the spirit of adoption.

452
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:13.000
That's right.

453
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:17.040
The spirit producing sonship.

454
00:40:17.040 --> 00:40:18.040
And check this out.

455
00:40:18.040 --> 00:40:21.920
This is what I love about the Amplified Classic version of this.

456
00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:27.080
We have received the spirit of adoption, the spirit producing sonship in the bliss of which

457
00:40:27.080 --> 00:40:36.320
we cry Abba, Abba, Father, or Daddy, Daddy, Papa, whoa, that's the spirit that we've received.

458
00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:41.640
So Romans 8, 15, it identifies that there's two different spirits or two different mindsets

459
00:40:41.640 --> 00:40:47.960
or two different paradigms that people can operate from, live out of, and one is the

460
00:40:47.960 --> 00:40:53.400
orphan spirit and one is the spirit of sonship, or one is the paradigm, the mindset of the

461
00:40:53.400 --> 00:41:00.760
orphan, or the mindset of the son.

462
00:41:00.760 --> 00:41:06.880
So there's these two things, the orphan illusion and there's the bliss of sonship.

463
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:13.400
So the orphan illusion, the orphan illusion is like a demon aircraft carrier.

464
00:41:13.400 --> 00:41:17.240
The orphan mindset, the orphan paradigm, it's like a demon aircraft carrier.

465
00:41:17.240 --> 00:41:22.960
And if you've got orphan mindsets, they become the foundation, and on that foundation, the

466
00:41:22.960 --> 00:41:27.640
whole demonic, all the demonic oppression that's going to come on your life will get

467
00:41:27.640 --> 00:41:34.080
built on top of the orphan illusion, on top of the orphan mindsets, orphan paradigms.

468
00:41:34.080 --> 00:41:38.200
They will produce, they will produce all that.

469
00:41:38.200 --> 00:41:40.520
Give me a thumbs up if people are still with me.

470
00:41:40.520 --> 00:41:50.720
Just getting a message, someone got disconnected.

471
00:41:50.720 --> 00:41:51.720
You there?

472
00:41:51.720 --> 00:41:52.720
Yep.

473
00:41:53.480 --> 00:41:54.480
Are you still with me?

474
00:41:54.480 --> 00:41:55.480
Okay, sweetness.

475
00:41:55.480 --> 00:41:56.480
That is good to know.

476
00:41:56.480 --> 00:41:57.480
That is good to know.

477
00:41:57.480 --> 00:41:58.480
Just a message there.

478
00:41:58.480 --> 00:41:59.480
Someone else got disconnected.

479
00:41:59.480 --> 00:42:02.760
I always really want to make sure that there's no issues like that.

480
00:42:02.760 --> 00:42:03.760
Oh, choice.

481
00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:04.760
Loving those thumbs up.

482
00:42:04.760 --> 00:42:10.560
So the orphan mindset, the orphan paradigm, it becomes the foundation on which every form

483
00:42:10.560 --> 00:42:16.360
of demonic oppression, demonic affliction will get built on in your life.

484
00:42:16.360 --> 00:42:22.000
So the orphan spirit, the orphan mindset, the orphan paradigm, the orphan illusion,

485
00:42:22.000 --> 00:42:26.960
it's the root cause to, it's the foundation on which everything demonic in your life will

486
00:42:26.960 --> 00:42:28.360
get built.

487
00:42:28.360 --> 00:42:34.320
So if you deal with the root, if we go right to the root and go boom and smash that sucker

488
00:42:34.320 --> 00:42:38.920
of the orphan illusion, we cut out the root of the orphan spirit, the orphan mindset,

489
00:42:38.920 --> 00:42:45.040
the orphan paradigm, then boom, you're going to get set free from every other demonic affliction,

490
00:42:45.040 --> 00:42:48.360
every other form of demonic oppression that's ever come against you.

491
00:42:48.360 --> 00:42:53.640
You'll get legitimately, completely, totally set free to participate effortlessly and seamlessly

492
00:42:53.640 --> 00:42:55.320
in the divine dance.

493
00:42:55.320 --> 00:42:57.080
And that is the bliss of sonship.

494
00:42:57.080 --> 00:43:01.300
So we are going to stop, you know, religion just always picks the fruit off the tree and

495
00:43:01.300 --> 00:43:03.440
leaves us still dealing with the root causes.

496
00:43:03.440 --> 00:43:04.880
So that's why we have cycles.

497
00:43:04.880 --> 00:43:07.080
They are like sin issues are cyclical.

498
00:43:07.080 --> 00:43:10.040
Our problems are cyclical.

499
00:43:10.040 --> 00:43:14.960
Sin issues and demonic issues and oppression issues, they're only cyclical if we don't

500
00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:16.400
deal with the root.

501
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:18.320
And religion doesn't deal with the root.

502
00:43:18.320 --> 00:43:20.280
Religion just picks the fruit off the tree.

503
00:43:20.280 --> 00:43:25.960
But if we deal with the root, you can get genuine freedom that you can't get so often

504
00:43:25.960 --> 00:43:32.640
in church circles because our mainstream gospel doesn't deal with the root cause of the orphan

505
00:43:32.640 --> 00:43:33.640
illusion.

506
00:43:33.640 --> 00:43:37.080
It just continually perpetuates this orphan existence.

507
00:43:37.080 --> 00:43:40.960
It doesn't deal with the core issue of the orphan illusion.

508
00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:47.760
And here's how you can tell if you're struggling with this orphan mentality.

509
00:43:47.760 --> 00:43:52.880
One of the first things, like, there's two things that run parallel in the orphan mindset.

510
00:43:52.880 --> 00:43:57.920
And I have lived these and I'm sure it sounds like you guys have lived these, but inadequacy

511
00:43:57.920 --> 00:43:59.640
is one, right?

512
00:43:59.640 --> 00:44:07.080
So inadequacy, the lie of inadequacy, falsely defined as inadequate, boom, that's one foundation

513
00:44:07.080 --> 00:44:08.080
of the orphan mindset.

514
00:44:08.080 --> 00:44:11.160
So there's two, like, two things happening simultaneously.

515
00:44:11.160 --> 00:44:15.320
So the moment that you believe that you're inadequate in any way, the moment that you

516
00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:20.280
believe that you're less than perfect in any way, boom, the orphan mindset has got

517
00:44:20.280 --> 00:44:21.280
you.

518
00:44:21.280 --> 00:44:22.280
All right?

519
00:44:22.280 --> 00:44:29.120
That's its foundational, that's its foundational lie, that you're inadequate in some way.

520
00:44:29.120 --> 00:44:32.720
If the devil can get you to believe that you're inadequate, he doesn't really have to do much

521
00:44:32.720 --> 00:44:33.720
from there.

522
00:44:33.720 --> 00:44:36.080
You'll become your own worst enemy and you'll do all the harm yourself.

523
00:44:36.080 --> 00:44:37.080
All right?

524
00:44:37.080 --> 00:44:40.560
That's the, like, if the devil can get you to believe that you're inadequate in any way,

525
00:44:40.560 --> 00:44:44.440
he can basically go on holiday and watch you self-destruct.

526
00:44:44.560 --> 00:44:49.360
Because when we believe that we're inadequate, right, and man, did I struggle with this and

527
00:44:49.360 --> 00:44:55.360
I have been working so hard to liberate my own mind, to bring truth into my own mind,

528
00:44:55.360 --> 00:44:59.960
not just in my intellectual thinking, but consciously, subconsciously, unconsciously.

529
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:05.520
Consciously letting truth baptize me, get to the very core of my being.

530
00:45:05.520 --> 00:45:09.880
Because when you've got inadequacy, inadequacy produces shame.

531
00:45:09.880 --> 00:45:11.200
Shame is different to guilt.

532
00:45:11.200 --> 00:45:13.640
Guilt says I've done something wrong.

533
00:45:13.640 --> 00:45:16.800
Shame says there's something intrinsically wrong with me.

534
00:45:16.800 --> 00:45:20.560
And so many of us are living with this belief that there's something intrinsically wrong

535
00:45:20.560 --> 00:45:21.560
with me.

536
00:45:21.560 --> 00:45:24.240
I'm less than perfect in some way.

537
00:45:24.240 --> 00:45:25.240
Oh my gosh.

538
00:45:25.240 --> 00:45:26.560
And that creates some serious issues.

539
00:45:26.560 --> 00:45:28.720
So inadequacy leads to shame.

540
00:45:28.720 --> 00:45:29.960
That leads to condemnation.

541
00:45:29.960 --> 00:45:30.960
We punish ourselves.

542
00:45:30.960 --> 00:45:33.960
We don't need God to punish us.

543
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:35.360
We don't need an angry God.

544
00:45:35.360 --> 00:45:39.760
We are like, we're worse than a, you know, like we're the God of wrath, you know, like

545
00:45:39.760 --> 00:45:40.760
we punish ourselves.

546
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:43.960
The moment we believe we're inadequate, it leads to shame.

547
00:45:43.960 --> 00:45:45.160
That leads to condemnation.

548
00:45:45.160 --> 00:45:47.000
That leads to self-hatred.

549
00:45:47.000 --> 00:45:49.560
And man, we punish ourselves.

550
00:45:49.560 --> 00:45:53.680
And I lived in that way so much, the moment I thought I failed, I haven't done enough,

551
00:45:53.680 --> 00:45:56.200
I've failed to perform well enough.

552
00:45:56.200 --> 00:46:00.320
And I lived on this hamster wheel of performance, constantly trying to perform, constantly trying

553
00:46:00.320 --> 00:46:04.640
to do enough for God, constantly trying to please God, but I could never do enough to

554
00:46:04.640 --> 00:46:05.640
be self-righteous.

555
00:46:05.640 --> 00:46:09.720
I was trying to earn a righteousness of my own that was through my works.

556
00:46:09.720 --> 00:46:14.000
I was trying to do enough to be pleasing to Him, but it's impossible to do enough to be

557
00:46:14.000 --> 00:46:19.400
pleasing to Him when you're already pleasing to Him without doing anything.

558
00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:20.400
So I failed at that.

559
00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:26.760
And when I failed at this hamster, this cycle of religious performance, I'd fall off the

560
00:46:26.760 --> 00:46:29.840
wheel and then boom, I would just start beating myself.

561
00:46:29.840 --> 00:46:33.000
Actually, I've got this thing here.

562
00:46:33.000 --> 00:46:35.000
This is a, this is like a condemnation stick.

563
00:46:35.000 --> 00:46:42.240
This is like a metaphorical condemnation stick, but man, this, God had spent years wrestling

564
00:46:42.240 --> 00:46:47.440
this condemnation stick out of my hand because I used to just flog myself with the condemnation

565
00:46:47.440 --> 00:46:48.440
stick.

566
00:46:48.440 --> 00:46:51.360
Just beat myself, beat myself, beat myself, beat myself.

567
00:46:51.360 --> 00:46:54.120
Anytime I thought like I hadn't done enough, I would beat myself.

568
00:46:54.120 --> 00:46:58.280
And man, it was hard work to let go of this condemnation stick.

569
00:46:58.280 --> 00:47:00.200
I just kept on beating myself.

570
00:47:00.200 --> 00:47:02.920
I just kept on abusing myself.

571
00:47:02.920 --> 00:47:08.200
And that's like, I just kept on like feasting on this, this condemnation.

572
00:47:08.200 --> 00:47:12.840
And I didn't realize why, but it was cyclical and over and over and I was born into the

573
00:47:12.840 --> 00:47:17.800
church to missionary parents and grew up as a pastor's kid and lived in religion and

574
00:47:17.800 --> 00:47:22.960
worked for the church and spent years and years and years working for the church, condemning

575
00:47:22.960 --> 00:47:24.840
myself, still not free.

576
00:47:24.840 --> 00:47:26.120
Why wasn't I free?

577
00:47:26.120 --> 00:47:27.440
Why didn't I get free?

578
00:47:27.440 --> 00:47:33.440
Why was I so obsessed with my own inadequacy, so obsessed with shame and self-hatred and

579
00:47:33.440 --> 00:47:34.440
condemnation?

580
00:47:34.440 --> 00:47:40.040
Why was I so obsessed with my own failures that I could never let go of my own sense

581
00:47:40.040 --> 00:47:41.040
of condemnation?

582
00:47:41.040 --> 00:47:46.080
Why did God have to wrestle with me for years to actually get me set free?

583
00:47:46.080 --> 00:47:51.360
Why did He have to struggle, struggle, struggle and wrestle condemnation out of my hands?

584
00:47:51.360 --> 00:47:56.840
Why was it that I couldn't just let it go and just get free from condemnation?

585
00:47:56.840 --> 00:48:01.040
It's because I was persuaded that I was inadequate.

586
00:48:01.040 --> 00:48:03.320
And listen, then it gets worse, right?

587
00:48:03.320 --> 00:48:09.200
It gets worse because after we've, we've feasted on inadequacy and shame and condemnation and

588
00:48:09.200 --> 00:48:14.320
self-hatred, it leads us to isolation.

589
00:48:14.320 --> 00:48:21.760
Now Adam and Eve, after the fall, they, this was their issue, inadequacy, shame, self-hatred,

590
00:48:21.760 --> 00:48:23.800
condemnation, isolation.

591
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:27.320
They ran off and hid in the bushes from God themselves.

592
00:48:27.320 --> 00:48:28.760
God didn't push them away.

593
00:48:28.760 --> 00:48:30.720
God didn't drive them away.

594
00:48:30.720 --> 00:48:35.600
Adam and Eve, led by, fueled by their own inadequacy, fueled by their own shame, fueled

595
00:48:35.600 --> 00:48:41.280
by their own self-hatred and their own condemnation, ran away themselves and hid in the bushes.

596
00:48:41.280 --> 00:48:43.040
And guess who comes looking for them?

597
00:48:43.040 --> 00:48:49.280
The Father, in His overwhelming delight, even in the midst of their shame and condemnation,

598
00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:54.480
self-hatred, even in the midst of their inadequacy and their isolation, their disconnection,

599
00:48:54.480 --> 00:48:58.840
and even in the midst of their hatred of God and their false projections and transfers

600
00:48:58.840 --> 00:49:04.480
and all their false judgments of who God was, even despite all of their junk and all of

601
00:49:04.480 --> 00:49:08.880
their rubbish and all of their failings and everything that they did, the Father comes

602
00:49:08.880 --> 00:49:16.440
to them gently, kindly, politely, nicely, in love, delighted with them, delighted in

603
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:17.440
them.

604
00:49:17.440 --> 00:49:19.120
They're still the focus of the Trinity's delight.

605
00:49:19.120 --> 00:49:21.120
They're still the focus of His delight.

606
00:49:21.120 --> 00:49:26.640
And He comes to them in order to draw them back, in order to call them back, in order

607
00:49:26.640 --> 00:49:33.400
to welcome them back, in order to bring them back into the divine dance and back into the

608
00:49:33.400 --> 00:49:38.160
focus of His delight and back into the bliss of their sonship.

609
00:49:38.160 --> 00:49:40.040
Well, that was me.

610
00:49:40.040 --> 00:49:42.400
I live with this inadequacy.

611
00:49:42.400 --> 00:49:45.640
So boom, that's one foundation, is inadequacy.

612
00:49:45.640 --> 00:49:50.400
And if the devil can get you to believe that you're inadequate in any way, boom, he's got

613
00:49:50.400 --> 00:49:58.680
you with a lifetime supply of shame, self-hatred, condemnation, isolation, disconnection from

614
00:49:58.680 --> 00:49:59.680
God, and separation.

615
00:49:59.680 --> 00:50:00.180
Boom.

616
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:02.540
He's got you right there. And then the next thing

617
00:50:03.400 --> 00:50:08.520
the other parallel thing that works with the orphan orphan mindset orphan illusion is

618
00:50:09.280 --> 00:50:12.500
the belief in lack now lack

619
00:50:13.240 --> 00:50:17.480
Produces fear every time if you believe that you're not going to have enough boom

620
00:50:17.480 --> 00:50:21.080
You will live in fear stress worry anxiety

621
00:50:21.680 --> 00:50:26.680
All that fear stress worry anxiety unhealthy emotions unhealthy behaviors all

622
00:50:27.400 --> 00:50:34.840
Come back to this place of being linked into a belief in lack that you won't have enough and the orphan mindset is

623
00:50:34.840 --> 00:50:36.840
a lack based

624
00:50:37.160 --> 00:50:38.360
mindset

625
00:50:38.360 --> 00:50:41.720
So that's the foundation of the orphan mindset of orphan

626
00:50:43.040 --> 00:50:45.680
Illusion the orphan paradigm the orphan spirit

627
00:50:45.680 --> 00:50:51.880
It's the belief that you're inadequate and the belief that you won't have enough and if the devil can get you with that boom

628
00:50:51.880 --> 00:50:54.780
You've got a lifetime supply of shame

629
00:50:55.300 --> 00:50:57.300
Condemnation

630
00:50:57.700 --> 00:51:02.220
Self-hatred isolation disconnection separation fear stress worry

631
00:51:02.860 --> 00:51:05.880
anxiety unhealthy feelings unhealthy emotions

632
00:51:06.740 --> 00:51:09.140
unhealthy behaviors addictions perversions

633
00:51:09.940 --> 00:51:15.380
Twisted chaos you've got it. You've got a lifetime supply of chaos and darkness right there

634
00:51:15.820 --> 00:51:20.900
Boom, and so Jesus said the spirit you have received is not a spirit

635
00:51:20.900 --> 00:51:25.140
This is Paul writing in Romans 8 the spirit you have received is not a spirit

636
00:51:25.940 --> 00:51:29.260
Right. It's not a spirit that leaves you in bondage to fear

637
00:51:29.260 --> 00:51:35.900
That's the orphan spirit, but you have received the spirit of adoption. That's the spirit now that spirit of adoption

638
00:51:36.980 --> 00:51:38.980
That spirit of adoption is

639
00:51:39.580 --> 00:51:40.900
constantly

640
00:51:40.900 --> 00:51:44.020
Constantly calling out that spirit of adoption is constantly

641
00:51:44.660 --> 00:51:50.420
Reminding you that you are the focus of his delight that spirit of adoption is the Holy Spirit and that that

642
00:51:50.900 --> 00:51:58.300
purpose the function of the Spirit of adoption is to leave you fully persuaded that you are the delight of the Trinity that you

643
00:51:58.300 --> 00:52:02.000
Are the delight of the Father that you are the apple of his eye

644
00:52:02.060 --> 00:52:09.520
That's the function of the spirit of adoption as to leave you fully persuaded that you're perfect and to believe you fully persuaded that you're

645
00:52:09.640 --> 00:52:14.400
Perfectly loved and that you're perfectly one the focus of the spirit of adoption

646
00:52:14.900 --> 00:52:17.540
Which is the Holy Spirit his job his?

647
00:52:18.220 --> 00:52:20.980
Mission that he's trying to accomplish in your life

648
00:52:20.980 --> 00:52:27.420
And my life is to get us to believe exactly the opposite of the orphan spirit exactly the opposite of the orphan illusion

649
00:52:27.420 --> 00:52:32.820
Which is you are adequate you are perfect you are as son as a son can be

650
00:52:33.020 --> 00:52:38.860
You're as loved as love can be you're as innocent can be and you're as one as one can be right now

651
00:52:38.860 --> 00:52:43.020
And you've never been separated. You've never been inadequate. You've never been

652
00:52:43.980 --> 00:52:49.340
Despised you've never been outside of his delight you have always always always been from the very beginning

653
00:52:49.860 --> 00:52:53.540
You've always been the focus of his delight. That's how he created you

654
00:52:53.540 --> 00:52:59.740
You got created in the context of delight in the context of the fellowship of the Trinity and their beautiful

655
00:53:00.140 --> 00:53:08.340
Unconditional unfailing love and the in the context of the fellowship of the Trinity you were conceived in delight and their delight

656
00:53:08.340 --> 00:53:14.260
And you has not for one moment ever reduced ever minimized ever flinched their delight

657
00:53:14.260 --> 00:53:20.940
And you has been perpetual since before the foundation of the world you have been the focus of their delight

658
00:53:20.940 --> 00:53:25.820
You have been the love of their life you have been the desire of their heart you have been

659
00:53:26.180 --> 00:53:32.260
Included in him from before the foundation of the world and you are the focus of the delight of the Trinity you are there

660
00:53:32.500 --> 00:53:37.260
Everything you are there all they are all consumed by you. They're overwhelmed by you

661
00:53:37.260 --> 00:53:43.940
They're undone by you. Their love is locked in on you. They are after you their whole heart is all about you

662
00:53:44.460 --> 00:53:49.660
Whoa, oh my gosh, boom just an explosion of love

663
00:53:49.660 --> 00:53:54.740
That's and that's the Holy Spirit's job what the Holy Spirit is trying to accomplish in our life

664
00:53:54.740 --> 00:54:00.340
The spirit of adoption is trying to awaken us if the spirit of adoption is awakening us

665
00:54:00.340 --> 00:54:02.340
It's trying to awaken us to the present

666
00:54:02.580 --> 00:54:09.500
Reality of how loved you already are the present reality of how much of a son you already are the present reality of how one

667
00:54:09.500 --> 00:54:13.460
You already are the present reality of how included you already are

668
00:54:13.980 --> 00:54:18.220
That's what the Holy Spirit's job is. That's what he's trying to do and accomplish in your life

669
00:54:18.220 --> 00:54:22.780
That is the purpose of the spirit of adoption to awaken you

670
00:54:23.340 --> 00:54:28.260
now Acts chapter 17 verses 27 to 28 Paul is preaching to

671
00:54:29.140 --> 00:54:30.900
unbelieving unrepentant

672
00:54:30.940 --> 00:54:32.940
sin-loving blood-sacrificing

673
00:54:33.700 --> 00:54:35.460
demon-worshipping

674
00:54:35.460 --> 00:54:39.980
Athenians and the Arapagos who've never heard the gospel. So they've got no faith whatsoever

675
00:54:40.380 --> 00:54:45.140
They have never heard of the divine dance. They have never heard of the love of the Father

676
00:54:45.140 --> 00:54:48.980
They have never heard the truth of who they are

677
00:54:48.980 --> 00:54:52.980
They've never heard that they've been included in him from before the foundation of the world

678
00:54:52.980 --> 00:54:56.460
They've never heard any of this and Paul when he speaks to them

679
00:54:56.460 --> 00:54:59.820
Look the mainstream gospel would say to them are because there's such

680
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:05.660
is, you know, they're inadequate and they're separate. But that is absolute rubbish. It's

681
00:55:05.660 --> 00:55:09.980
religious bullshnitzel. It's going to leave you condemned. It's going to leave you oppressed.

682
00:55:09.980 --> 00:55:15.260
It's going to leave you in shame and condemnation and isolation and in self-hatred, disconnected

683
00:55:15.260 --> 00:55:21.240
from God, infused with lack, stress, fear, worry, anxiety, unhealthy feelings and emotions

684
00:55:21.240 --> 00:55:25.540
and unhealthy behaviors and addictions and perversions. You'll never, never, never, never,

685
00:55:25.860 --> 00:55:30.900
get free if you believe that you're inadequate and that you're separate. But that is the

686
00:55:30.900 --> 00:55:37.660
baseline message of the mainstream gospel and it's not true and it's killing us. It's

687
00:55:37.660 --> 00:55:41.980
just killing us to say that people are separated from God, to say that people are sinners.

688
00:55:41.980 --> 00:55:46.340
Paul didn't say that. He wasn't saying, look, you're inadequate and separated. This is how

689
00:55:46.340 --> 00:55:53.220
he preached the gospel to sin-loving, unbelieving, demon-worshipping, blood-sacrificing people

690
00:55:53.260 --> 00:56:00.260
who had no faith whatsoever. And he says to them, look, in fact, he is near to us all.

691
00:56:01.980 --> 00:56:08.900
In him, we live and move and have our being. We are all his children. Boom, right there.

692
00:56:08.900 --> 00:56:13.660
That is the crux of the gospel, the essence, the message, the heartbeat of the gospel,

693
00:56:13.660 --> 00:56:20.660
the very core of the gospel. That's really the core of it is that you are not inadequate

694
00:56:20.860 --> 00:56:26.380
and you are not separate. You are perfectly loved by your Father in heaven. They included

695
00:56:26.380 --> 00:56:30.500
you in the divine dance before the foundation of the world and they want you to wake up

696
00:56:30.500 --> 00:56:34.380
to the present reality that you're already a part of the dance. You're already in as

697
00:56:34.380 --> 00:56:38.020
in can be. You're already the delight of their lives. You're already the focus of their love.

698
00:56:38.020 --> 00:56:42.340
You are everything to them. They want you to wake up, smell the sun. They want you to

699
00:56:42.340 --> 00:56:48.020
wake up to Bliss FM. They want you to wake up and participate in your inclusion. They

700
00:56:48.020 --> 00:56:53.180
want you to wake up and participate in divine union. They want you to wake up and participate

701
00:56:53.180 --> 00:56:58.460
in the fullness of the bliss of sunshine for the ecstasy of this divine dance with the

702
00:56:58.460 --> 00:57:04.900
Trinity. Wow. That's what they want for you. And that's what the spirit of adoption is

703
00:57:04.900 --> 00:57:09.780
all about. Helping us transition from the orphan illusion. And I call it the orphan

704
00:57:09.780 --> 00:57:17.700
illusion really on purpose because I don't believe that there are any spiritual orphans.

705
00:57:17.700 --> 00:57:22.540
We all trace. It doesn't matter who you are but all humanity. Every single person that's

706
00:57:22.540 --> 00:57:29.300
ever existed traces their genealogy all the way back to our Father in heaven. There is

707
00:57:29.300 --> 00:57:35.180
only one Father of humanity. Every single person in humanity traces their genealogy

708
00:57:35.180 --> 00:57:42.180
back to our Father. Traces their genealogy back to Genesis chapter 1 verse 26 and 27

709
00:57:42.180 --> 00:57:48.300
and the Trinity said let us make man kind in our image. In the image of God he made

710
00:57:48.300 --> 00:57:54.020
them. In the image of God they made them. Male and female he created them. We all trace

711
00:57:54.020 --> 00:58:00.660
out our identity. We all trace our genealogy back to the Trinity. Every single one of us

712
00:58:00.660 --> 00:58:06.340
was created, conceived in delight in the context of the fellowship of the Trinity. They dreamed

713
00:58:06.340 --> 00:58:11.700
us. They created us. They spoke us into being out of love and delight and that was the desire

714
00:58:11.700 --> 00:58:16.420
of their heart from the beginning. And so when you wake up to the present reality of

715
00:58:16.420 --> 00:58:24.940
your perfection, boom! Everything's gonna change. Everything's gonna change. So here's

716
00:58:24.940 --> 00:58:29.940
the thing. Here's the thing. Here's some hot tips on how to get free. Thanks guys for your

717
00:58:29.940 --> 00:58:33.660
awesome encouragement as well. I really appreciate it. I can see all those comments popping up

719
00:58:38.220 --> 00:58:42.940
really appreciate it. So yeah, awesome comments. They really do encourage me. So please keep

720
00:58:42.940 --> 00:58:48.540
them coming and I love knowing that you're still there because I'm speaking to a camera

721
00:58:48.540 --> 00:58:52.580
and a microphone and there's no one really here in my office with me at this time of

722
00:58:52.580 --> 00:58:57.020
night. So I love, I really appreciate the comments. It just helps feel like we're on

723
00:58:57.020 --> 00:59:06.900
this journey together. So appreciate that very much. Now I want to, I want to give you

724
00:59:06.900 --> 00:59:11.860
a really really awesome tip on how to get free because I couldn't get free from inadequacy.

725
00:59:11.860 --> 00:59:15.940
Didn't matter how many times I read my Bible, cover to cover, I don't know, I've read my

726
00:59:15.940 --> 00:59:20.300
Bible through and through, over and over and I couldn't, I didn't get free. Oh snap, what?

727
00:59:20.300 --> 00:59:26.540
I pray, I've spent over 10,000 hours cultivating intimacy with the Trinity and you know I like,

728
00:59:26.540 --> 00:59:35.560
honestly, 5,000 hours in the presence didn't get me free. What? How could 5,000 plus hours

729
00:59:35.560 --> 00:59:41.240
not get you free? Even, you know like over 5,000 hours just like spending time with the

730
00:59:41.240 --> 00:59:45.240
Lord, praying, praying in tongues, reading my Bible, worshipping, down on my knees, down

731
00:59:45.240 --> 00:59:49.080
on my face, praying in the night, praying in the morning, praying all night, praying

732
00:59:49.080 --> 00:59:54.640
all day, you know like it didn't get me free. Why not? Eventually it did but in all of that

733
00:59:54.640 --> 00:59:59.680
time it's probably, if I track my journey, I've had over 10,000 hours just going after

734
00:59:59.680 --> 01:00:00.040
the Lord.

735
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:05.400
personal times and just corporate times just going after him. So five thousand

736
01:00:05.400 --> 01:00:09.080
hours didn't get me free. Why not? Because here's why it couldn't get me free

737
01:00:09.080 --> 01:00:16.320
because I was obsessed with my own inadequacy. It's not that the truth

738
01:00:16.320 --> 01:00:19.560
didn't have the power to get me free. The truth had the power to get me free. The

739
01:00:19.560 --> 01:00:25.800
truth got to got me free in ten minutes. I just didn't know the truth and the

740
01:00:25.800 --> 01:00:29.400
truth was really hidden from me. The truth was really veiled from me in a lot

741
01:00:29.400 --> 01:00:35.760
of religious theology that was all about convincing me. I had a whole

742
01:00:35.760 --> 01:00:42.000
lifetime of theology that was designed to convince me of my own inadequacy and

743
01:00:42.000 --> 01:00:56.340
my own separation and disconnection from God. So there I was just obsessed with my

744
01:00:56.340 --> 01:01:01.020
own inadequacy for year after year. Not even realizing that was my issue. Not

745
01:01:01.020 --> 01:01:06.060
even realizing that that was my issue. But that was my issue. It was crazy. It was

746
01:01:06.060 --> 01:01:15.340
intense. And so oh my gosh. It wasn't until I discovered and this is it guys.

747
01:01:15.340 --> 01:01:18.260
This is it. It wasn't until I discovered that I am perfect.

748
01:01:18.260 --> 01:01:23.540
Oh crazy concept. Yeah crazy concept. But it's the truth. I'm made in his image. It

749
01:01:23.540 --> 01:01:29.500
wasn't until I discovered that I am exclusively defined by the Trinity that

750
01:01:29.500 --> 01:01:33.300
I was able to be set free. And here's I'm gonna give you one of the biggest keys.

751
01:01:33.300 --> 01:01:38.740
One of the biggest keys that helped unlock me and set me free and break me

752
01:01:38.740 --> 01:01:44.700
free from religion. Here's one of the biggest keys right. This has empowered so

753
01:01:44.700 --> 01:01:50.660
much freedom. So much freedom. So much so much freedom has come from this one

754
01:01:50.780 --> 01:02:02.660
revelation that the Lord gave me. He said it all started with Psalm 139.

755
01:02:02.660 --> 01:02:11.100
Psalm 139. So just a question there from Helen. Yes so

756
01:02:11.100 --> 01:02:14.860
absolutely. All that time in the presence that led me to freedom. It

757
01:02:14.860 --> 01:02:18.180
didn't actually accomplish my freedom. But it actually led me on the process.

758
01:02:18.220 --> 01:02:21.980
It was only. It was that time in the presence. That time with the Lord. I mean

759
01:02:21.980 --> 01:02:25.700
that was absolutely priceless. And it was only because of that time that I

760
01:02:25.700 --> 01:02:30.580
eventually did get free. It was only because of a life like just to live for

761
01:02:30.580 --> 01:02:34.820
intimacy. A life devoted to intimacy. A life that it's just like okay. Like I

762
01:02:34.820 --> 01:02:39.060
chose. I had to choose. Will I have a normal life where I have a normal job or

763
01:02:39.060 --> 01:02:42.500
will I accept this call to intimacy and lay my life down and lay down every

764
01:02:42.500 --> 01:02:47.060
other opportunity before me to go after intimacy. And I said yes. And I said I

765
01:02:47.220 --> 01:02:50.260
kiss goodbye to all the other opportunities. I took the

766
01:02:50.260 --> 01:02:55.340
opportunity just to lay my life down for intimacy. So yes. So all that time of

767
01:02:55.340 --> 01:02:59.540
intimacy with the Lord. It didn't set me free. You know it didn't set me free

768
01:02:59.540 --> 01:03:02.660
straight away. But it actually started the journey. It kick-started the journey.

769
01:03:02.660 --> 01:03:08.180
That led me in the journey. It led me on a radical radical reformation. That

770
01:03:08.180 --> 01:03:12.260
actually I discovered what the church was hiding. I kind of grew. Like this

771
01:03:12.260 --> 01:03:15.500
journey of intimacy took me outside of the mainstream gospel and took me into a

772
01:03:15.540 --> 01:03:19.220
revelation of the truth. And here's where it brought me. The Lord out of that time

773
01:03:19.220 --> 01:03:23.700
the Lord spoke to me. He was like oh you know what son. He spoke to me out of

774
01:03:23.700 --> 01:03:31.820
Psalm 113. Psalm 139. And he said you are fearfully and wonderfully created. I was

775
01:03:31.820 --> 01:03:37.220
like I was I'm wonderfully created. I was like what? Wonderfully created? Yeah. And

776
01:03:37.220 --> 01:03:40.820
I was like so hang on a second God. Is it okay for me to even say that I'm

777
01:03:40.820 --> 01:03:44.860
wonderful? This was my religious mindset was at. I was like um can I even think

778
01:03:44.860 --> 01:03:48.700
that I'm wonderful? Isn't that proud and arrogant to think that I'm wonderful?

779
01:03:48.700 --> 01:03:54.660
Like could I get a t-shirt? Could I get a t-shirt that says I am wonderful and

780
01:03:54.660 --> 01:03:58.380
wear that around and not be like proud and arrogant? And here's what he said. He

781
01:03:58.380 --> 01:04:04.420
said humility is simply to agree with me. Humility is simply to agree with me. You

782
01:04:04.420 --> 01:04:07.700
want to get this. You want to you want to grasp this. You want to draw this into

783
01:04:07.700 --> 01:04:13.340
your heart. Humility is simply to agree with God. Humility is simply to agree

784
01:04:13.820 --> 01:04:18.540
with God. And this oh my gosh this lead to a landslide of freedom. This just

785
01:04:18.540 --> 01:04:23.900
unleashed insane amounts of freedom for me. Because I thought it was proud and

786
01:04:23.900 --> 01:04:29.020
arrogant to say oh yeah I am I'm wonderful. I thought that was a proud

787
01:04:29.020 --> 01:04:33.540
arrogant crazy thing to say. But God said no no where's the pride? Where's the real

788
01:04:33.540 --> 01:04:39.140
pride issue? The real pride issue is in refusing to agree with who he says I am.

789
01:04:39.180 --> 01:04:47.980
The real pride issue is in refusing to agree with who he says I am. And he says

790
01:04:47.980 --> 01:04:51.780
that I'm wonderful. Not only does he say that I'm wonderful he says that I'm made

791
01:04:51.780 --> 01:04:57.780
in his image. He says that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. And

792
01:04:57.780 --> 01:05:01.860
so I was like oh my gosh and I just

793
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:03.400
Discover that if you get humble, you get free.

794
01:05:03.400 --> 01:05:05.640
But if you stay proud, you stay bound.

795
01:05:05.640 --> 01:05:08.120
So you should say this with me, even in your own little room.

796
01:05:08.120 --> 01:05:10.720
If you get humble, you get free.

797
01:05:10.720 --> 01:05:12.880
If you stay proud, you stay bound.

798
01:05:12.880 --> 01:05:14.840
I'm just going to say that again.

799
01:05:14.840 --> 01:05:16.880
Repeat it with me if you can.

800
01:05:16.880 --> 01:05:19.820
If you get humble, you get free.

801
01:05:19.820 --> 01:05:22.480
If you stay proud, you stay bound.

802
01:05:22.480 --> 01:05:25.520
So what does pride look like?

803
01:05:25.520 --> 01:05:32.760
Pride is usurping God's role to judge who you are.

804
01:05:32.760 --> 01:05:34.600
He's already judged you.

805
01:05:34.600 --> 01:05:36.040
He's already judged you as perfect.

806
01:05:36.040 --> 01:05:37.760
He's already judged you as wonderful.

807
01:05:37.760 --> 01:05:40.040
He's already judged you as made in His image.

808
01:05:40.040 --> 01:05:43.800
He's already judged you that you're exclusively defined by Him.

809
01:05:43.800 --> 01:05:48.200
And anything that disagrees with that is the voice of the demonic realm coming in accusation

810
01:05:48.200 --> 01:05:53.600
and condemnation to smear His image in you, to rob you of your identity.

811
01:05:53.680 --> 01:05:55.680
It doesn't matter who it comes from.

812
01:05:55.680 --> 01:06:01.680
If anyone in any way, shape or form says in any way that you are less than perfect, says

813
01:06:01.680 --> 01:06:07.440
that in any way you are less than exclusively defined by Him, then that is a lie from the

814
01:06:07.440 --> 01:06:08.440
demonic realm.

815
01:06:08.440 --> 01:06:09.440
That is condemnation.

816
01:06:09.440 --> 01:06:11.120
That is accusation.

817
01:06:11.120 --> 01:06:13.840
And that is the anthem of the demonic realm.

818
01:06:13.840 --> 01:06:18.400
Condemnation and accusation to rob you of your perfection, to rob you of your sonship,

819
01:06:18.400 --> 01:06:21.480
to rob you of your identity.

820
01:06:21.480 --> 01:06:28.800
So I discovered that if you want to get free, you've got to get humble, and to get humble

821
01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:29.800
you simply agree with Him.

822
01:06:29.800 --> 01:06:33.400
And what I didn't realize is that I had all these life experiences.

823
01:06:33.400 --> 01:06:35.120
I had all this religious teaching.

824
01:06:35.120 --> 01:06:38.520
I had all those voices of people that had spoken into my own head.

825
01:06:38.520 --> 01:06:42.080
I had all my own voices of condemnation and accusation.

826
01:06:42.080 --> 01:06:47.240
I had all my own voices and all my own junk and all my own failures and disappointments

827
01:06:47.240 --> 01:06:51.960
and people have trauma that we go through.

828
01:06:51.960 --> 01:06:55.240
We have terrible, terrible trauma that we go through.

829
01:06:55.240 --> 01:07:00.680
Wow, so much terrible trauma that we go through in life.

830
01:07:00.680 --> 01:07:04.400
Just wave if you've been through intense trauma, if you've been through betrayal, if you've

831
01:07:04.400 --> 01:07:12.880
been through broken relationships, if you've been through just all of this chaos, then

832
01:07:12.880 --> 01:07:13.880
give a wave.

833
01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:18.400
If you've tasted on that, if you know what that's like, then just give a wave because

834
01:07:18.400 --> 01:07:25.160
this is just crazy, the amount of pain that we go through, the amount of pain that we

835
01:07:25.160 --> 01:07:29.920
go through in life, but when we don't realize, if we don't realize that we're exclusively

836
01:07:29.920 --> 01:07:34.360
defined by the Trinity, then we live with an identity vacuum, and when we have that

837
01:07:34.360 --> 01:07:39.600
identity vacuum, we're actually looking for life experiences to define us.

838
01:07:40.160 --> 01:07:44.880
I went through life and picked up all these definitions of my identity from life through

839
01:07:44.880 --> 01:07:51.080
all these experiences, and I actually lost my sonship in the midst of all my life experiences

840
01:07:51.080 --> 01:07:56.080
because I had a false mindset believing that I was defined by my experiences.

841
01:07:56.080 --> 01:07:58.480
I believed that I was defined by my behavior.

842
01:07:58.480 --> 01:08:01.760
Now God makes a distinction between identity and behavior.

843
01:08:01.760 --> 01:08:07.960
You can be a dirty, rotten, as far as your behavior can go, you can be the worst, most

844
01:08:07.960 --> 01:08:14.720
addicted, most perverted, most wicked person as far as your behavior goes, but God doesn't

845
01:08:14.720 --> 01:08:16.920
define you by your behavior.

846
01:08:16.920 --> 01:08:21.240
He makes a distinction between behavior and identity, and the distinction that he makes

847
01:08:21.240 --> 01:08:26.040
is you're defined by your identity, that you're made in his image, but you're not defined

848
01:08:26.040 --> 01:08:27.279
by your behavior.

849
01:08:27.279 --> 01:08:33.200
Now life experiences, behavior, trauma, all of those things, they have the capacity to

850
01:08:33.200 --> 01:08:38.640
influence us, but they have no capacity to define us.

851
01:08:38.640 --> 01:08:44.120
They have the capacity to influence us, but they have no authority whatsoever to define

852
01:08:44.120 --> 01:08:48.840
what he has already exclusively defined in his image, and he has already defined you

853
01:08:48.840 --> 01:08:53.000
exclusively in his image before the foundation of the world.

854
01:08:53.000 --> 01:08:58.439
No experience that you've ever been through has any authority whatsoever to falsely define

855
01:08:58.439 --> 01:08:59.880
you.

856
01:08:59.880 --> 01:09:00.880
You're exclusively defined.

857
01:09:00.880 --> 01:09:02.160
That's a done deal.

858
01:09:02.160 --> 01:09:03.960
Your identity is not up for grabs.

859
01:09:03.960 --> 01:09:09.920
Your identity can't be, you can't earn it, you can't do anything to perform for it.

860
01:09:09.920 --> 01:09:14.920
You are exclusively defined by the Trinity.

861
01:09:14.920 --> 01:09:15.920
Boom.

862
01:09:15.920 --> 01:09:20.880
Now if you will come into agreement with that, boom, flip, all of a sudden, instantly you'll

863
01:09:20.880 --> 01:09:23.319
be as free as free can be.

864
01:09:23.319 --> 01:09:25.359
You'll be as free as free can be.

865
01:09:25.359 --> 01:09:30.520
Now here's the thing, like our pride is when we refuse to let God define us.

866
01:09:30.520 --> 01:09:35.040
When we hold fast onto our life experiences and let our life experiences define us, instead

867
01:09:35.040 --> 01:09:39.680
of stepping into humility where we agree with God about who we are, because humility is

868
01:09:39.680 --> 01:09:43.000
simply to agree with God, and if you get humble, you get free.

869
01:09:43.000 --> 01:09:44.000
Boom.

870
01:09:44.000 --> 01:09:45.000
It's a done deal.

871
01:09:45.000 --> 01:09:46.000
If you get humble, you get free.

872
01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:50.560
Now, I call this the beautiful journey because it's not just like, it's not just a simple

873
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:51.560
process.

874
01:09:51.560 --> 01:09:57.280
We've gone through so much process, so much process, process, process, process, because

875
01:09:57.280 --> 01:09:59.760
it's not just about getting it into our heads.

876
01:09:59.760 --> 01:10:00.760
It's about getting it into our hearts.

877
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:05.480
Being consciously persuaded, subconsciously persuaded, unconsciously persuaded.

878
01:10:00.760 --> 01:10:00.760


879
01:10:05.480 --> 01:10:10.760
Every single part of our whole being has to become fully persuaded that we're exclusively

880
01:10:10.760 --> 01:10:15.400
defined by the Trinity if we want to be free.

881
01:10:15.400 --> 01:10:19.480
My friend Nancy Cohen, she's amazing, she's got a great quote, she says, salvation will

882
01:10:19.480 --> 01:10:24.480
cost you nothing, you just turn up, you can still carry as much pride and as much junk

883
01:10:24.480 --> 01:10:28.920
as you like in your life, but boom, you can step into salvation, it'll cost you nothing.

884
01:10:28.920 --> 01:10:33.120
Sanctification, that'll cost you something, you've got to start letting go of some of

885
01:10:33.120 --> 01:10:37.280
your pride, you've got to start getting humble, you've got to start laying that down, laying

886
01:10:37.280 --> 01:10:41.360
down the false definitions, you've got to start paying a little bit of a price to lay

887
01:10:41.360 --> 01:10:47.240
down your pride, but purification, now purification will cost you everything.

888
01:10:47.240 --> 01:10:50.840
If you want to step into purification, if you want to step into the bliss of sonship,

889
01:10:50.840 --> 01:10:55.600
if you want to step into the fullness of the divine dance, it will cost you everything,

890
01:10:55.680 --> 01:10:58.320
not all your money, it's not going to be negative.

891
01:10:58.320 --> 01:11:01.820
It's just going to cost you every false definition of your identity that you've

892
01:11:01.820 --> 01:11:02.820
ever picked up.

893
01:11:02.820 --> 01:11:08.080
It's going to cost you all the pride, it's going to cost you all your pride, it's going

894
01:11:08.080 --> 01:11:11.800
to cost you all your false definitions, it's going to cost you every belief that you have

895
01:11:11.800 --> 01:11:12.900
that you're inadequate.

896
01:11:12.900 --> 01:11:16.660
It's going to cost you every belief that you have that you'll never have enough.

897
01:11:16.660 --> 01:11:20.680
To step into purification is going to cost you all your inadequacy, all your shame, all

898
01:11:20.680 --> 01:11:24.220
your condemnation, all your self-hatred, all your isolation, it's going to cost you all

899
01:11:24.220 --> 01:11:28.760
your lack, all your fear, all your stress, all your worry, all your anxiety, all your

900
01:11:28.760 --> 01:11:33.900
unhealthy feelings and emotions, all your unhealthy addictions and perversions and behaviours.

901
01:11:33.900 --> 01:11:36.960
That's what it's going to cost to step into purification.

902
01:11:36.960 --> 01:11:41.580
That's what it's going to cost us to step into the fullness of our sonship.

903
01:11:41.580 --> 01:11:44.420
So the beautiful journey is just amazing.

904
01:11:44.420 --> 01:11:50.260
But I question though, right, if Jesus is inviting us into this ecstasy, this bliss,

905
01:11:50.380 --> 01:11:55.100
all this wonder of sonship, then why isn't the church running into it?

906
01:11:55.100 --> 01:11:57.000
Why isn't the whole world running into it?

907
01:11:57.000 --> 01:12:01.880
Why isn't the whole world leaving behind this chaos of the orphan illusion and just by the

908
01:12:01.880 --> 01:12:05.560
millions, by the billions streaming into the bliss of sonship?

909
01:12:05.560 --> 01:12:06.580
Why aren't we doing that?

910
01:12:07.020 --> 01:12:08.320
Why aren't we doing that?!

911
01:12:08.340 --> 01:12:11.180
Why aren't we just running in, charging into freedom?

912
01:12:11.180 --> 01:12:15.740
Why aren't we running in, pouring in by the millions and millions and millions into the

913
01:12:15.740 --> 01:12:17.100
bliss of sonship?

914
01:12:17.100 --> 01:12:19.060
Why do we refuse to run into sonship?

915
01:12:19.060 --> 01:12:25.540
Why do we stay in that realm of inadequacy and lack and shame and condemnation and self-hatred

916
01:12:25.540 --> 01:12:26.540
and isolation?

917
01:12:26.540 --> 01:12:28.300
Why do we stay there?

918
01:12:28.300 --> 01:12:29.300
Why do we do that?

919
01:12:29.300 --> 01:12:35.500
And I'll tell you one of the reasons why I refused, why I resisted, one of the reasons

920
01:12:35.500 --> 01:12:36.500
why I resisted.

921
01:12:36.500 --> 01:12:39.700
I'm going to kind of bring it into a landing here with one of the reasons why I resisted

922
01:12:39.700 --> 01:12:44.100
so much the process of purification.

923
01:12:44.100 --> 01:12:45.540
I was terrified.

924
01:12:45.580 --> 01:12:50.180
I was terrified of the concept of surrender.

925
01:12:50.180 --> 01:12:52.300
I was just totally terrified, right?

926
01:12:52.300 --> 01:12:55.580
We have, we're a paradox, humans are a paradox.

927
01:12:55.580 --> 01:13:01.340
There's nothing we want more than to be known and there's nothing we're more terrified of

928
01:13:01.340 --> 01:13:05.060
than to be known.

929
01:13:05.060 --> 01:13:09.700
To step into purification requires stepping into total vulnerability.

930
01:13:09.700 --> 01:13:14.820
Now, I love the bliss of sonship now but there was a time in my life where I totally resisted

931
01:13:14.860 --> 01:13:15.860
the process.

932
01:13:15.860 --> 01:13:17.740
I fought against the process.

933
01:13:17.740 --> 01:13:19.420
I refused to go into the process.

934
01:13:19.420 --> 01:13:20.420
You know what?

935
01:13:20.420 --> 01:13:23.580
I had secret sin on the inside of me.

936
01:13:23.580 --> 01:13:30.860
The sin that when I was a little kid, I would have only been like five, six years old, just

937
01:13:30.860 --> 01:13:37.100
kid curiosity, doctors and nurses type things, a couple of kids, we just did some stuff and

938
01:13:37.100 --> 01:13:43.420
it wasn't even like, wasn't even bad stuff but I just had this, it became this massive

939
01:13:43.420 --> 01:13:44.900
secret sin for me.

940
01:13:44.900 --> 01:13:51.300
It became this huge, huge, huge source of inadequacy and a massive sense of shame and

941
01:13:51.300 --> 01:13:55.660
self-hatred and guilt and condemnation and I live with that.

942
01:13:55.660 --> 01:14:01.620
I live with that intensely for well over a decade and when I finally did start making

943
01:14:01.620 --> 01:14:10.180
my journey towards the Lord and start seeking the Lord and start trying to follow Him, oh

944
01:14:10.180 --> 01:14:14.820
my gosh, there came a time he was just pruning stuff off, right, the Lord was just pruning

945
01:14:14.820 --> 01:14:15.820
stuff off my life.

946
01:14:15.820 --> 01:14:19.620
He was pruning off these exterior issues.

947
01:14:19.620 --> 01:14:21.420
He was getting rid of this sin and this sin.

948
01:14:21.420 --> 01:14:27.260
He was just dealing with some of this exterior stuff and then He put His finger on my deepest

949
01:14:27.260 --> 01:14:33.460
core issue, on my inadequacy, on what was driving this huge obsession with inadequacy

950
01:14:33.460 --> 01:14:38.180
in my own heart and it was my secret sin and He wanted me to bring it out and I was just

951
01:14:38.180 --> 01:14:43.980
like flat out refused, terrified, I didn't want to go there at all because it just didn't

952
01:14:43.980 --> 01:14:48.700
seem safe to me and so many of us, we might not even realise it, we just don't even feel

953
01:14:48.700 --> 01:14:50.540
safe with God.

954
01:14:50.540 --> 01:14:58.820
We feel, oh, how does it happen, you know, it just starts like this.

955
01:14:58.820 --> 01:14:59.980
It starts with...

956
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:08.320
Our trust gets broken. Someone breaks our trust and we put up a wall to protect ourselves.

957
01:15:08.320 --> 01:15:13.360
Maybe that was a big breach of trust. Maybe it was a big betrayal or a little betrayal

958
01:15:13.360 --> 01:15:24.840
but sooner or later a betrayal starts. A betrayal starts, a trust gets broken, we put up a wall

959
01:15:24.840 --> 01:15:34.980
to protect ourselves. I'm just making up a story now but just imagine a young lady.

960
01:15:34.980 --> 01:15:41.440
She has a broken relationship with her father and the very person that she thought she could

961
01:15:41.440 --> 01:15:46.280
trust the most in this world breaks her trust and it leaves her with a massive wound. So

962
01:15:46.280 --> 01:15:51.800
she puts up these walls around her life to protect herself from getting wounded but what

963
01:15:51.800 --> 01:15:57.560
she doesn't realise is that those very same walls that are protecting her from getting

964
01:15:57.560 --> 01:16:02.520
wounded become a barrier to receiving love. She's putting up these walls all around her

965
01:16:02.520 --> 01:16:06.800
heart to protect herself but they're becoming barriers that actually stop her from receiving.

966
01:16:06.800 --> 01:16:15.280
It's like oh my gosh. So those walls go up around her heart and then one day she meets

967
01:16:15.280 --> 01:16:21.040
someone and she just decides okay right man I think I might be falling in love and she

968
01:16:21.120 --> 01:16:26.640
does something outrageous, she does something extreme and actually lets the walls down and

969
01:16:26.640 --> 01:16:32.720
actually just dares to trust someone again even though she's had major heartbreak, major trust

970
01:16:32.720 --> 01:16:37.360
and then this young lady decides okay I'm going to trust someone again. I'm going to give it a

971
01:16:37.360 --> 01:16:41.960
go. I'm going to try and trust someone and then she goes out, she leaps out on this massive risk

972
01:16:41.960 --> 01:16:47.680
of trusting someone. Everything goes well, everything goes amazing until that one day

973
01:16:47.920 --> 01:16:54.200
eventuates, that one moment comes around and again boom an explosion, a crushing,

974
01:16:54.200 --> 01:17:01.040
destroying betrayal that just like totally destroys her heart all over again and oh my

975
01:17:01.040 --> 01:17:07.800
gosh she goes no! Swears to herself that she will never be betrayed like this again and she

976
01:17:07.800 --> 01:17:12.280
doesn't just put up little walls now. Now she like she rose out onto an island like Alcatraz.

977
01:17:12.280 --> 01:17:15.600
If you haven't heard of Alcatraz, it's a famous prison in the States. It's built,

978
01:17:15.760 --> 01:17:20.400
nickname is The Rock because it's just built on an island which is a rock and there's nothing

979
01:17:20.400 --> 01:17:24.280
else just this rock that pops out of the sea and they built this island there where she's like she

980
01:17:24.280 --> 01:17:28.160
does the same thing. She's like oh my gosh I'm going to totally isolate. No one's ever going to

981
01:17:28.160 --> 01:17:33.080
hurt me again. No one's going to, I'm never going to be vulnerable again with anyone because no

982
01:17:33.080 --> 01:17:37.760
one's safe and they're going to do damage to my heart and so she puts up all these walls and she

983
01:17:37.760 --> 01:17:43.160
puts up barbed wire and security lights and Alsatian dogs and she's got machine gun turrets

984
01:17:43.160 --> 01:17:48.040
and anyone who tries to even come close to get vulnerable and they're like getting taken out of

985
01:17:48.040 --> 01:17:55.600
the water. Anyone who tries to get close to be vulnerable she's like no way because but in the

986
01:17:55.600 --> 01:18:01.400
at the same time what she thought was a fortress wall to protect her becomes her own prison and we

987
01:18:01.400 --> 01:18:06.480
do this ourselves. I did this myself. These walls that I thought were going to be protecting me

988
01:18:06.480 --> 01:18:11.400
were the very same walls that were actually causing my love deficit, causing me to live

989
01:18:11.400 --> 01:18:17.320
disconnected from the Trinity. Causing me to live outside of the divine dance and then God

990
01:18:17.320 --> 01:18:22.280
like it's like the spirit of adoption comes. You know the Holy Spirit he starts whispering in. He

991
01:18:22.280 --> 01:18:28.440
starts calling out. He starts saying to that young lady in there I love you. I love you. I love you.

992
01:18:28.440 --> 01:18:33.800
I love you. It's like what? No what? Could that be even God? Like oh my gosh and God's calling us to

993
01:18:33.800 --> 01:18:40.440
vulnerability. God's calling us to be totally undone, totally exposed, totally seen, totally

994
01:18:40.440 --> 01:18:45.560
revealed. Nothing hidden within. He's calling us to this place of total surrender and total

995
01:18:45.560 --> 01:18:50.560
purification but the concept of being seen you know like because we make these judgments of

996
01:18:50.560 --> 01:18:59.960
inadequacy. Hey Leighton and all you guys loving you. Good to see you. We have these such huge

997
01:18:59.960 --> 01:19:04.840
sense of inadequacy within us. Now even though we're burning to be known, burning to be seen,

998
01:19:05.240 --> 01:19:12.280
we are terrified, terrified, terrified of anyone looking on the inside, the very core of who we

999
01:19:12.280 --> 01:19:16.600
are because we ourselves think that there's something wrong with us. We carry shame and

1000
01:19:16.600 --> 01:19:21.560
self-hatred and inadequacy and we think oh my gosh no one. I can't even love myself. How could anyone

1001
01:19:21.560 --> 01:19:28.200
else love me and we isolate. We're terrified of being exposed and then God calls us from our

1002
01:19:28.200 --> 01:19:34.040
prisons. He calls us from these places of isolation into total surrender and for most of us this

1003
01:19:34.040 --> 01:19:40.600
concept is too, too, too terrifying. Especially when our image of the Father is distorted and

1004
01:19:40.600 --> 01:19:46.360
warped and then the Father calls us to total intimacy. Oh my gosh maybe one thing if Jesus

1005
01:19:46.360 --> 01:19:51.320
calls us, maybe another if the Holy Spirit but the Father calling us to be totally surrendered.

1006
01:19:51.320 --> 01:19:57.320
The Father calling us to be totally naked, totally exposed, totally seen, totally vulnerable before

1007
01:19:57.320 --> 01:19:59.800
Him. Open up the very core of our secret.

1008
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:05.600
and let no aspect or facet of who we are be hidden before him. Now that is terrifying.

1009
01:20:05.600 --> 01:20:15.040
That is why the whole world isn't running into the bliss of sonship because we don't actually trust

1010
01:20:15.040 --> 01:20:21.200
the Father. Maybe Jesus, maybe the Holy Spirit, but really we struggle so much with the concept

1011
01:20:21.200 --> 01:20:24.560
of trusting the Father and getting totally vulnerable before him. Because if you're

1012
01:20:24.560 --> 01:20:29.440
going to get vulnerable, you want to feel safe. And the tragic reality is that people don't feel

1013
01:20:29.440 --> 01:20:35.520
safe around the Father. So many of us have had distorted, terrible, crazy relationships with

1014
01:20:35.520 --> 01:20:40.960
Fathers, built up this gnarly, gnarly, gnarly belief that Fathers aren't safe and that our

1015
01:20:40.960 --> 01:20:45.760
Father in heaven isn't safe and that he's an angry God and he wants to punish us and he wants

1016
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:52.240
to condemn us and he wants to do all these things that are just absolutely not true. But it makes

1017
01:20:52.240 --> 01:20:59.760
it almost impossible for us to come to a place of absolute, complete, total surrender. But I

1018
01:20:59.760 --> 01:21:04.080
remember the day that I finally did come to that place. I couldn't resist God anymore. He'd been

1019
01:21:04.080 --> 01:21:10.400
pursuing me for months, calling me into surrender, calling me into total transparency, calling me into

1020
01:21:10.400 --> 01:21:16.160
total vulnerability, calling me into total surrender. But my own sense of inadequacy and

1021
01:21:16.160 --> 01:21:23.360
shame and my own sense of unworthiness and unworthy to be loved and not enough. And it drove

1022
01:21:23.360 --> 01:21:30.880
me to hide from it. It drove me into isolation. It drove me to reject his intimate, like his embrace.

1023
01:21:30.880 --> 01:21:35.280
I wanted him, but I was actually creating the distance in the relationship. No, I don't want

1024
01:21:35.280 --> 01:21:39.200
to come into surrender. No, I'm too scared. I'm too scared. I'm too scared. I was afraid. I was

1025
01:21:39.200 --> 01:21:44.080
afraid. I was afraid of what it would be like to step into total surrender. But eventually,

1026
01:21:45.040 --> 01:21:52.800
the day came where I did. I stepped into total, complete, terrifying, terrifying,

1027
01:21:52.800 --> 01:22:03.360
terrifying vulnerability. I stepped into the most terrifying experience of my life where I faced the

1028
01:22:03.360 --> 01:22:09.920
core root cause of my own inadequacy. I faced the terrifying root cause of my own self-hatred.

1029
01:22:10.000 --> 01:22:17.360
I faced the terrifying root cause of my own shame, of my own isolation. This belief was inside me

1030
01:22:17.360 --> 01:22:23.760
that was driving my own inadequacy, my own self-hatred, my own condemnation. And I faced

1031
01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:30.080
up with them. It was the most courageous thing I've ever done. And that day, it was actually a

1032
01:22:30.080 --> 01:22:34.080
bit of a process, but there came a day where I fully completed what he called me into,

1033
01:22:34.640 --> 01:22:40.640
where I stepped into total surrender. And if I'm going to look back on my life, everything that

1034
01:22:40.640 --> 01:22:48.240
my life is built on, that's of value. Everything is built on that surrender. There's not going to

1035
01:22:48.240 --> 01:22:54.400
be anything good that happens in my life, anything exciting, anything wonderful that the Lord does

1036
01:22:54.400 --> 01:23:00.560
going forward from here is going to be built on the surrender that happened that day when I just

1037
01:23:00.560 --> 01:23:06.320
came to that place where I'm going to totally surrender to you, Lord. And I just got so vulnerable

1038
01:23:06.320 --> 01:23:12.640
and totally naked and totally exposed in the very core issues of my heart, the deepest,

1039
01:23:12.640 --> 01:23:20.240
deepest secret sin. I dealt with it. I dealt with the people. Whoa. Yeah, I dealt with it. I dealt

1040
01:23:20.240 --> 01:23:26.320
with all of that. I just brought it all out on the table and just laid it out. And there was so much

1041
01:23:26.320 --> 01:23:32.720
that I had to talk with people and tidy up mess and deal with my own brokenness and deal with it.

1042
01:23:32.720 --> 01:23:39.120
And boom, I got it out into this place of just complete, complete surrender. And when I came to

1043
01:23:39.120 --> 01:23:45.520
that place of complete surrender, boom, freedom happened like never before. Chains fell off me.

1044
01:23:45.520 --> 01:23:53.040
I used to have this vision of manacles around my own wrists and living just bound. They were gone.

1045
01:23:53.040 --> 01:23:59.520
My heart was free. I'd never felt so much freedom in my life. And it was that place of total

1046
01:23:59.520 --> 01:24:04.640
surrender, which is so terrifying. And that's why even though the Lord's calling humanity into the

1047
01:24:04.640 --> 01:24:10.640
divine dance, that's why we resist the divine dance. We can't step into the divine dance

1048
01:24:11.280 --> 01:24:16.320
and fullness without becoming fully vulnerable. And even though the desire of our heart more than

1049
01:24:16.320 --> 01:24:21.280
anything else is to be fully known, we actually hate ourselves and we're so twisted in our own

1050
01:24:21.280 --> 01:24:26.160
sense of inadequacy and our obsession with inadequacy that even though it's the desire of

1051
01:24:26.160 --> 01:24:30.960
our heart, it's the most terrifying thing that we could imagine as well as total, total surrender,

1052
01:24:30.960 --> 01:24:43.040
the core of our being exposed, naked, laid bare before God. So we're going to go more into this

1053
01:24:43.040 --> 01:24:50.560
going forward, but our next session is going to be on revealing the Father. And that really is the

1054
01:24:50.560 --> 01:24:55.520
core issue that's going to start setting us free to come into this place of surrender for so many

1055
01:24:55.520 --> 01:24:59.840
of us as we actually discover the heart, discover the...

1056
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:04.680
nature of the Father, discover the image of the Father of who He truly is, and get

1057
01:25:04.680 --> 01:25:09.640
rid of these false images of an angry Father that are a total lie, that just

1058
01:25:09.640 --> 01:25:15.040
absolute lies that He's the angry Father, because you were conceived in delight

1059
01:25:15.040 --> 01:25:18.420
from before the foundation of the world, and there hasn't been a moment where the

1060
01:25:18.420 --> 01:25:21.760
delight of the Father or the delight of the Trinity has ever flinched or been

1061
01:25:21.760 --> 01:25:26.280
withdrawn or been restricted in any way. They have always, always, always

1062
01:25:26.280 --> 01:25:32.840
burnt with an unceasing, unyielding love and passionate delight for you, and you

1063
01:25:32.840 --> 01:25:39.520
are the very desire, you're the heart desire of the Trinity. You are their

1064
01:25:39.520 --> 01:25:43.160
delight, you're the focus of their delight, you're the delight of their

1065
01:25:43.160 --> 01:25:47.720
life, that's who you are, and our next session, Revealing the Father, is just

1066
01:25:47.720 --> 01:25:54.480
going to be amazing to start unpacking this even more. I'm going to just jump

1067
01:25:54.480 --> 01:26:03.080
into a couple of things now. One, I want us to just to chuck down there,

1068
01:26:03.080 --> 01:26:06.680
use three words to describe what your relationship with God is like at the

1069
01:26:06.680 --> 01:26:12.120
moment, and you know, at the start we used three words to describe what was

1070
01:26:12.120 --> 01:26:17.520
what was the, what was your, what have been the hardest things of your

1071
01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:20.840
relationship with God. I want you just to pick three words that you think are

1072
01:26:20.840 --> 01:26:26.880
accurate words that would describe your relationship with God now. So my three

1073
01:26:26.880 --> 01:26:31.600
now, I started with my originally, the hard ones were condemnation, inadequacy

1074
01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:37.040
and separation. Those are probably my top three struggles, but now my three

1075
01:26:37.040 --> 01:26:41.880
words that I would use to describe this, yeah we're about to wrap this session up

1076
01:26:41.880 --> 01:26:45.800
so we're just coming in for a landing now, but top three words that I would use

1077
01:26:45.800 --> 01:27:03.520
is bliss, bliss, adventure, bliss, adventure, and what's the other one? Dreams, yeah

1078
01:27:03.520 --> 01:27:07.360
bliss, dreams and adventure, that would be what my top three things are to describe

1079
01:27:07.360 --> 01:27:11.880
the father, describe relationship with God now, and also, so if you want to chuck

1101
01:28:48.640 --> 01:28:53.160
able to do this, just want you to just close your eyes, I want to quickly whack

1102
01:28:53.160 --> 01:29:00.240
on, whack on this song that, that I recommend if people listen to, if you

1103
01:29:00.240 --> 01:29:03.680

1104
01:29:03.680 --> 01:29:11.920
ultimate, that's a really good song, oh that's a YouTube ad, I'm gonna skip that,

1105
01:29:11.920 --> 01:29:20.280
boom, it's called you say, it's going to play this, but what I'd like you to do

1106
01:29:20.280 --> 01:29:25.840
is just close your eyes where you are and I just want you to imagine, just want

1107
01:29:25.840 --> 01:29:30.400
you to imagine and just think to yourself, I wonder what it would be like, I

1108
01:29:30.560 --> 01:29:38.560
wonder what it would feel like, I wonder what it would feel like, I wonder what

1109
01:29:38.560 --> 01:29:44.520
it would be like if I woke up tomorrow morning and every part of my entire

1110
01:29:44.520 --> 01:29:54.760
being was completely baptized in the love of the Trinity, so I need to ask

1111
01:29:54.880 --> 01:29:58.960
yourself and imagine this, what would it be like

1112
01:29:58.960 --> 01:30:01.960
if

1113
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:09.800
If you woke up tomorrow morning, and you were participating fully in the divine dance.

1114
01:30:09.800 --> 01:30:15.480
What would it feel like for you to wake up tomorrow morning and be participating effortlessly

1115
01:30:15.480 --> 01:30:18.160
in the divine dance?

1116
01:30:18.160 --> 01:30:26.880
What would it feel like if you were completely baptized in delight, baptized in ecstasy,

1117
01:30:26.920 --> 01:30:30.840
baptized in awe, baptized in wonder?

1118
01:30:30.840 --> 01:30:35.160
What would it feel like for you if you woke up tomorrow morning, and you knew that you

1119
01:30:35.160 --> 01:30:38.400
would never experience separation again?

1120
01:30:38.400 --> 01:30:40.560
You would never experience inadequacy again.

1121
01:30:40.560 --> 01:30:42.720
You would never experience condemnation again.

1122
01:30:42.720 --> 01:30:44.680
You would never experience shame.

1123
01:30:44.680 --> 01:30:46.120
You would never experience depression.

1124
01:30:46.120 --> 01:30:48.040
You would never experience self-hatred.

1125
01:30:48.040 --> 01:30:49.720
You would never experience mental illness.

1126
01:30:49.720 --> 01:30:56.720
You would never experience disconnection, separation, lack, fear, stress, worry, anxiety.

1127
01:30:56.880 --> 01:31:10.160
What would it feel like if you woke up tomorrow morning completely consumed by the Trinity?

1128
01:31:10.160 --> 01:31:15.760
What would it feel like for you if you woke up tomorrow morning and every moment for the

1129
01:31:15.760 --> 01:31:23.960
rest of your life, you participated in seamless union, effortless intimacy, and a constant

1130
01:31:23.960 --> 01:31:29.600
participation in the divine dance with the Trinity, overflowing love in every area of

1131
01:31:29.600 --> 01:31:34.880
your life?

1132
01:31:34.880 --> 01:31:40.640
My prayer for you is that you wake up tomorrow morning, and that is what you begin to experience.

1133
01:31:40.640 --> 01:31:42.560
I'm excited for this journey.

1134
01:31:42.560 --> 01:31:46.480
As we go forward together, you are going to be able to step into that.

1135
01:31:46.480 --> 01:31:48.200
I encourage you to keep imagining that.

1136
01:31:48.200 --> 01:31:50.080
That's a powerful activation to do.

1137
01:31:50.080 --> 01:31:54.640
Ask yourself, I wonder what it would feel like to experience the fullness of the love

1138
01:31:54.640 --> 01:31:56.280
of the Trinity in my life.

1139
01:31:56.280 --> 01:32:00.440
You'll be amazed at how much power there is in that for activation and impartation of

1140
01:32:00.440 --> 01:32:03.160
the love of the Trinity to explode in your heart.

1141
01:32:03.160 --> 01:32:08.920
I love you, and I'm excited for our next session as well, Jesus Coming to Reveal the Father.

1142
01:32:08.920 --> 01:32:11.720
Do some lives, and I love you very much.

1143
01:32:11.720 --> 01:32:12.720
We'll catch you soon.

1144
01:32:12.720 --> 01:32:13.720
Bye-bye, guys.
