-
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Love Quest International
-
Church Podcast where we seek to love all nations, equip the
-
church, mobilize the equipped, and serve all.
-
We're super glad you're joining us from whenever and wherever
-
you're at in the world. Welcome to the family to get
-
your Bibles ready, get some water, get some coffee, maybe
-
some tea, and get ready to receive.
-
It's go time. Let's get into it.
-
Well, welcome to Dynasty Wednesday and it is the final
-
Dynasty Wednesday for 2025, which is great and it's sad.
-
Bit of both because I, I love this time.
-
It's a fantastic blessing to be able to engage.
-
I love joining the discussion groups and hearing what people
-
are experiencing in God. And so it's so good to spend
-
this time with you. Now we actually are doing
-
something for the final Dynasty Wednesday that's a little
-
different than we normally do and say different.
-
It's good. So we're going to do something a
-
little bit different tonight and we're going to have 4 speakers
-
and panellists. So we have with us as our
-
speakers, Elder John, welcome, Elder John, welcome Pastor
-
Daniela and Teacher Effie and me, Elder Brad.
-
And just so you know, what we're going to be doing is reviewing
-
some of the key things that has been spoken through Dynasty
-
Wednesday. And there's some words, there's
-
prophetic words, there's some themes that we've been speaking
-
into and we're going to be focusing in on those.
-
And then we're going to chat about it.
-
And then we're going to pray into it.
-
So that'll be the the steps. We're going to talk about it,
-
say about with me, talk about it, chat about it, pray into it.
-
OK, so we're going to have a great time.
-
I encourage you get out your notebook and keep your ears open
-
to what God is going to say tonight.
-
So our first speaker will be Pastor Daniella, and she's going
-
to be speaking in to a word that was declared over this House.
-
Thanks. Elder, how's everyone doing?
-
OK, great. First, I just want to thank the
-
pastors for allowing me the privilege of speaking into the
-
prophetic word. I just, I love prophetic words
-
and this is a house that lacks not prophecy.
-
And so it's an honour to remind you what God is speaking to you
-
through our mighty pastor. Amen.
-
August 20th, I'm going to get you to take out whatever you're
-
writing on like notebook or your cell phone.
-
Maybe not your cell phone. Notebook's always better.
-
And I want you to write down these three scriptures that will
-
give you reference to the prophetic word.
-
I'm about to review John 3/8, Acts 2, verse one to two, John
-
38, Acts verse 2, one to two and then Ezekiel 37, nine.
-
And this is a prophetic where that was released on August the
-
20th and we call it the wind is blowing.
-
He is perfecting because the wind is about to blow.
-
He is equipping because the harvest is about to storm in.
-
He is cleaning His house because the wind is about to blow.
-
It is His grace and it is His mercy that He is giving His
-
children time to turn around. Before the Savior stepped out,
-
there was a warning in the wilderness, and that warning was
-
repent, for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand.
-
God is gracious to warn, to compel, to send a Clarion call
-
before the wind blows. He is perfecting because the
-
wind is about to blow. The call.
-
Costs. He is perfecting because the
-
wind is about to blow. The power of God's Word is meant
-
to bring about transformation. He is perfecting because the
-
wind is about to blow. There's been warning about being
-
too busy. There's been warning about who
-
you're getting in covenant with with.
-
There's been warning about some of the tricks of the enemy in
-
2025. Why?
-
Because the wind is about to blow.
-
We get so focused on harvest time that we don't focus on
-
routing time. The dangers about compelling you
-
about the promise is that you begin to get hyper promise and
-
think anything good that comes is promised because this is the
-
year. Not knowing this loud voice
-
about promise on the flip side is a warning to brace yourself
-
because the wind is about to blow.
-
So in these conversations, there's going to be a stirring
-
of gifts. God is shifting your seasons, He
-
is disturbing your rhythms. He is silencing your comforts.
-
He is transplanting your desires, and He is releasing you
-
to your pride. He doesn't free you from your
-
pride. You do that.
-
But He will, when it's time, release you to your pride.
-
This is about to be a dusty season.
-
God owes no one an explanation. We're in a season when you have
-
to be OK making decisions without an explanation.
-
We're in a season where the wind's going to blow and you got
-
to be ready to go. When God speaks, be quick to
-
obey. If you misstep, be quick to
-
repent. He has prepared you for the day
-
of the wind. If the wind takes you out, it's
-
because you didn't take the equipping season seriously.
-
This is a season to be very careful, to be distracted by
-
contentious conversations, battles, unnecessary weights,
-
unnecessary quarrels, unnecessary arguments.
-
In this season, there is an anointing to make peace and be
-
empowered. Without closure, an explanation
-
will not heal you. An explanation will not get rid
-
of your insecurities. An explanation will not make you
-
trust somebody. This is a season where God is
-
going to do the healing and you need to take that passion and
-
that energy and that love and put it towards God, but also
-
show that same love that He showed you to people.
-
I'm telling you, waiting for an explanation and closure is going
-
to rob you of necessary energy that you need for the divine
-
moment. We are stepping in.
-
You don't need closure. The wind's about to blow.
-
He is equipping you because the wind's about to blow.
-
Like fishing in this season, God is throwing His net into the sea
-
of Saints, and as the wind is blowing, the net's going to come
-
out of the water. Is God's love bait enough?
-
Is His word bait enough for you to repent?
-
Amen. Amen.
-
Amen. So that's a significant word and
-
really kicked us into the series that we've been going through
-
over the last two 2 1/2 months. First question I want to put out
-
there is how have the words? How has that word impacted the
-
way you pray? For me, the way it prayed, it's
-
impacted the way I pray. By helping me be disciplined,
-
helping my my heart remain pure, helping me have proper
-
priorities, telling me what to focus on and what not to focus
-
on. What's is my business and what
-
just isn't my business. No how, no matter how much my
-
emotions or my care for people or my concern about their gain
-
or loss wants to pull me in those directions to help me be
-
focused and therefore help me steward my energy better, my
-
spiritual energy, my personal energy.
-
At least for me, that's how it's helped me in terms of prayer.
-
Yeah, For me, it's given me a finality in focus and clarity
-
and call in terms of prayer. And so there are some things I
-
just don't need to pray about. The wind is blowing and there
-
are just some things that I need to let go and I don't need
-
closure. The wind is blowing.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
But also what is left standing is a very clear sign of what I
-
do need to pray into and what I do need to pray for.
-
And then also clarity in my call in this house in particular as a
-
teacher, because my gift matters in my prayer life.
-
But also, as Elder, Roseanne has helped me in this season too, as
-
the wind is blowing, praying corporately.
-
I don't need to teach the people, I just need to pray the
-
word. So there's just clarity in
-
calling and when and how that is used within the context of
-
prayer. Excellent.
-
Now, one of the things Pasta Terrorists has brought up
-
subsequently is the wind is blowing and it is foundation
-
inspection season. Idols are being exposed.
-
So it's foundation inspection season that that that's a pretty
-
powerful word because we're going to the the foundation is
-
that root, It's that strength, how we're rooted so past in
-
talking to that like that, that rooted aspect of how the wind is
-
inspecting that foundation. I think when we have prophetic
-
words like this, it can first be like, brace yourself because the
-
wind is about to blow. But I think it's moments like
-
these that really help to encourage and reinforce how
-
rooted you are when all the other things are no longer
-
there, when the scaffolding is calm down, when the things that
-
you've been putting up to cover what you think isn't prepared
-
enough, isn't ready enough. God will also allow this to be a
-
season where he's like, no, you are ready because I said you're
-
ready and I am with you. And this is an opportunity to
-
show that. And also the wind can be as
-
refreshing as it is movement. And so for your rootedness, it
-
can be a time of God refreshing you like and encouraging you to
-
move into the next dimension to show you that you're rooted.
-
And it's also a proving time, right?
-
We're, we're proving the preparation, we're proving the
-
move that God has made. We're, we're proving the word
-
that he's given into our lives, that it is strong enough that in
-
the battle in the wind, in that testing time, we actually find
-
out that yes, God has proved himself and, and we have the
-
foundation is strong. Amen.
-
Possibly. Can you pray into that?
-
Yes. We, we pray together, guys,
-
we're going to invite you to pray along with us and, and
-
you've heard the word yourself. So pray along and engage your
-
hearts as well. Speak out.
-
Amen. If you have your heavenly prayer
-
language, feel free to pray that as well.
-
Father, we thank You that the Word of God is healing salve to
-
our souls. We thank You Lord, that when we
-
apply the Word of God that the wind is blowing in every area of
-
our life, that we do it with a willingness because we know You
-
are faithful to watch Your Word and perform it.
-
So we don't need to be worried, we don't need to have fear.
-
We just need to have submission to You that when the wind blows,
-
what is remaining is for our good and what isn't remaining is
-
stuff that we no longer need, whether it is in this current
-
season we're in or in the new dimension where You are taking
-
us. We thank You Father, that the
-
Word is not just for us as a Love Quest community, but for us
-
as individuals and everyone else that is connected to us.
-
To the Father. We thank you in this season as
-
we continue to root ourselves in the Word of God that the wind is
-
blowing. We're not doing it for
-
ourselves, but we're doing it for every person that is
-
connected in our lineage before us currently and those after us.
-
We thank you, Father, for the reminder that the call costs and
-
that we are willing to do what it takes to see the new US the
-
KNEW us. We thank you, Lord, that you are
-
shifting our seasons, that you are disturbing our rhythms, that
-
you are silencing our comforts and you're transplanting our
-
desires because you love us and you'd want us to be the best
-
version of us that we can be. Children, sons and daughters
-
that are created in your image and your likeness so that when
-
we go out into the world, in our conversations at work or at the
-
coffee shops, power transformation, light and salt
-
will be what remains. Not masks, not fear, not the
-
things that are not of you. But we thank you Lord, that
-
every time we step into a room, change in Jesus name, Amen.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
All right, you can take your seat equipped build up for the
-
come up. So we actually began our dynasty
-
Wednesday time with that word equipped.
-
It's actually quite interesting because one of the lines out of
-
the August 20th prophetic word was about equipping because the
-
harvest is about to storm in. So we're being equipped because
-
we're preparing for the harvest of what God is doing.
-
Now in John chapter 4 verse 35, it says do you Jesus is speaking
-
and he says, do you not say it is still four months until
-
harvest time comes. Look, I tell you, raise your
-
eyes and observe the fields and see how they are already white
-
for harvesting. It's usually it's look for the
-
harvest, equipped for the harvest and work the harvest.
-
In the verse it says, look, I tell you, raise your eyes.
-
There's something about that awareness of what God is doing.
-
The prophetic word was there for us to be aware so we can look
-
and see around us what God is doing, see how He's moving, see
-
what hearts He's touching, have an awareness to those around us
-
wherever we are and we are equipped for the harvest.
-
Sometimes there may be an uncertainty.
-
I don't know if I have the words to say.
-
I don't know if I'm going to quite say it the right way or
-
maybe maybe they weren't like the way I do this or that, but
-
you are equipped with the Holy Spirit and you've been prepared
-
by the word of God that's been put into your life.
-
You are equipped for the harvest and then we work the harvest.
-
We get out there and we engage in what God's doing.
-
First Samuel 16 verse 7. Samuel was coming to anoint the
-
next king who happened to be King David.
-
And the Lord says to Samuel, people judge by outward
-
appearances, but the Lord looks at the heart.
-
The Lord looks at the heart. He's looking at that heart
-
posture. He's looking at that preparation
-
time. He's looking at your heart to
-
see people moved. And He is working with the
-
willing. Don't minimize yourself to
-
gifts. Don't minimize yourself to what
-
you see about yourself instead of recognizing the anointing
-
that's on your life. God works in the anointing.
-
He works with those who have a heart to serve Him.
-
He works with those who are prepared.
-
When David was preparing, he prepared in the backfield.
-
David's preparation was in private.
-
He developed the skills. He developed that anointing.
-
He developed that engagement with God.
-
Are you aware of what you're packing, of what you're
-
bringing? Of what that time in the Lord
-
has brought into your life? Sometimes we're not aware until
-
it's proven. We are perfected to build.
-
In DMI 218. It talks about strengthening our
-
hands to the work, strengthening your hands to build.
-
So we are perfected to build. We are perfected in our life for
-
the purpose of building. We are perfected to battle.
-
Nehemiah 416 to 18. And the battle was beginning in
-
that case, because Nehemiah and Israel were building the walls.
-
They were preparing a city that was protected.
-
And so as they were doing the work, the battle begins.
-
So when you start engaging in activities and engaging in
-
speaking the good things of God, don't be surprised when there's
-
a battle. The battle begins because the
-
work has begun. They're related.
-
They're connected. And thirdly, you are perfected
-
to bless. God is perfecting you to bless.
-
In Genesis chapter 12 verse 2, the Lord is talking to Abram and
-
says you are blessed to be a blessing and God is perfecting
-
you so you can bless, that you can contribute, you can give
-
out. What God is saying, so we are
-
perfected to build, say perfected to build, perfected to
-
battle, and perfected to bless. Amen.
-
Well, that was pretty good, Amen.
-
Look at me, the perfecting aspect of it, the preparation
-
time that that idea of it happening in private.
-
There's times that could even want to just be a lonely time,
-
right? How?
-
How would you describe for yourself perfecting time like
-
preparation time? For me, perfect for.
-
That's all folks. You see what I'm saying?
-
Perfecting time it it it's private, but it's but it's
-
joyful because you know there's purpose in what's going on and
-
what's happening. It's not for no consequence and
-
no end. And so I've, even though it's
-
private, I find that encouraging, right, that that
-
something is really going on and is for a great purpose.
-
I I think of like when athletes are perfecting their craft,
-
their skill, if they're like my new little things that the
-
average person may not see, but God will always convict you in a
-
moment. So like pass over his references
-
is like that piece of toilet paper on the ground where like
-
everyone keeps walking over. But if God's convicting you, are
-
you going to be obedient and pick it up and put it away?
-
So I think it's like those like it's, it's like the big chunks
-
have come off and now he's like shaping.
-
And so that's where the privateness comes.
-
But it is beautiful because it's like such an opportunity.
-
Keep being obedient and then also encourage yourself like,
-
oh, I actually did it pretty quickly that time versus the
-
last, you know, 10 times. I think perfecting in private
-
can feel like isolation, but God taught me that it's actually an
-
invitation to intimacy. So we have to receive that
-
invitation and work that invitation.
-
And in that we learn that we actually really aren't alone,
-
nor do we have to be lonely. The circumstances might feel
-
lonely, but we ourselves do not have to be lonely because this
-
is a moment of intimacy with our Creator and that changes
-
everything. But also, you don't have to be
-
perfect to be perfected. La Sagrada Familia is a
-
cathedral, a beautiful cathedral in Spain, and it is not
-
finished. It is still being perfected, yet
-
daily it is open for tours and people marvel at the beauty of
-
what is being built. So don't think just because
-
you're not there yet, there isn't something beautiful in the
-
works. That's fantastic.
-
And even that concept of understanding that your
-
preparation has purpose for some people, we just got to grab
-
that. We got to grab that and and
-
realise that sometimes those things that we think are
-
monotonous or or unseen are actually there's joy in that and
-
captivating them. Next question is how easy is it
-
to just see our gifts and miss the anointing we we?
-
Like I think it's the man because the gifts is the fun
-
part. You know, the gifts let us play,
-
you know, it's a sparkle. Quick example, I don't know if
-
you're a caramel apples or candy apples, an apple with caramel or
-
candy across the top. Like the gifts is like the
-
caramel on the outside, but then you've got a lot of apple to
-
eat, right? You know, it's really about the
-
apple, not the caramel. So the gifts you know, is, is is
-
easy to focus on versus the other things God is doing on the
-
inside. So it does take discipline and
-
and and challenge to you properly focus.
-
And, and the gifts can be easily seen, right?
-
Whereas the anointing is something where God's working on
-
you and in you and you bring it with you wherever you go, right?
-
Anything else, Dad? We're good.
-
All right. Well, I'm going to pray.
-
All right, let's pray. Will you stand with me?
-
Thank you, Lord. Lord, we praise you that we are
-
equipped. We thank you, Lord.
-
You're equipping us. We have equipped for purpose.
-
We are equipped with purpose and reason.
-
We have been equipped in our quiet time.
-
We've been encrypted in our private time.
-
We're being equipped because you have purpose for us.
-
Lord, we look to the harvest. We lift our eyes to see how you
-
are doing, see what you are moving, see where you are going
-
to see where you are speaking, Lord, to see how you are
-
encouraging and engaging hearts. Lord, we look to you, Jesus, we
-
look and see. We have an awareness of our
-
heart that you are moving in power.
-
Lord, we thank you and thank you, Lord, we are equipped for
-
the task. We are equipped for the harvest.
-
We're equipped to be able to share the good news of Jesus.
-
We're equipped to be able to speak in love.
-
We're equipped to be able to walk in patience.
-
We're equipped to be able to move by the Spirit of God and be
-
led by the Spirit. We are equipped as a people to
-
move where God is moving, to listen to what He is saying and
-
engage in him. Thank you Lord, we are equipped.
-
Thank you, Lord, in this preparation time, you are taking
-
things off and you're putting things on.
-
Lord, there are things that are being cast off us.
-
Lord, there are things that are coming off that no longer
-
belong. They might have even been good
-
for a time, but they're not good for this time.
-
They might have been good for the last dimension.
-
They're not good for the new dimension.
-
Lord, there are things that have been cast off so we can walk
-
freely into that thing you are calling us too, into the coal
-
you have given us. So Lord, we praise you for the
-
release, Lord, in a wisdom to know what needs to be cast off.
-
And Lord, thank you, Lord, for the things you're putting into
-
us. So we are ready for this new
-
dimension. We praise you, Lord God, you are
-
the one who does a complete work, a finished work, and a
-
great work. Lord, we rest in you, we rely on
-
you, and we yield to you, the Holy Spirit, in the name of
-
Jesus, Amen. Thank you, Lord, Hallelujah.
-
Hallelujah. Now I'd like to invite Teacher
-
Effie. As we get started, first of all,
-
thank you Pastor Terence, thank you Pastor Julia.
-
I never take for granted your trust in me and you're seeing me
-
and you're equipping and mobilizing of what is in and on
-
me. So I love you guys.
-
Repeat after me. Say, Lord, help my unbelief.
-
Say, Lord, help my unbelief. Say I believe, but Lord, help my
-
unbelief. How many of you remember that
-
part of the series that we have just had the last couple months?
-
Lord, help my unbelief. And that is the focus of really
-
where our church has been as the wind is blowing.
-
Who knows? The wind exposes and the wind
-
exposes our unbelief. The wind exposes our
-
instabilities. The wind exposes the cracks in
-
our foundation. And that's actually the purpose
-
of the wind. So it's not something we need to
-
be afraid of or scared of. It's something we can take joy
-
in. Because as the wind is blowing,
-
while these things are being revealed, how many of you know
-
the name of the Lord is our strong tower.
-
The righteous run into it and they are safe.
-
So know that even as the wind blows, the name of the Lord is
-
present and available. Utter it.
-
Your strong tower has come and you are safe.
-
So this series started with the story of the epileptic boy and
-
his father, and that story can be found in Mark 9.
-
But first part of dealing with our unbelief is we have to
-
examine three areas of our life, our hunger, our honesty, and our
-
humility. If you want to get to the root
-
of your issues with unbelief, look at your hunger, your
-
honesty, and your humility. Hunger as in I painfully need to
-
mature. Not my neighbor, not my husband,
-
not my wife, not my brother, mother, father, sister, cousin,
-
nobody. Me, I painfully need to mature.
-
Honesty, I got problems. I got issues, but forget about
-
who else has them. You, you got issues, I got
-
issues. And we need to start to address
-
those things and we need help. And help is available, but also
-
humility. It takes humility to have hunger
-
and to be honest. And so we need to remain hungry
-
and remain honest in the process.
-
In Mark 9, we found there was a man who came to Jesus and he
-
said, Lord my son, these seizures, they there, there,
-
there's something that comes upon him and it throws him into
-
these violent fits and he hurts himself in the process.
-
And I need help. And Jesus responded, he said, do
-
you believe? And he said, Lord, I believe,
-
but help my unbelief. 2 things can exist at the same time.
-
We can believe and not. There are areas where we do
-
believe, but we need to address the areas where we don't so we
-
can come into full belief. Full belief in the word, full
-
belief in the name, full belief in the power of the God we
-
profess and say we believe in. We're all in the process of
-
believing, the process of developing our faith publicly
-
and privately. But this question, this prayer
-
is key in that process. And there's a couple of things
-
we need to notice when stuff starts to go crazy in our life.
-
Understand Jesus is there. He's in the chaos.
-
When Jesus stepped on the scene, the boy had an episode, but it
-
was Jesus who said no. Deaf and dumb spirit come out.
-
And when the disciples who were too busy bickering, how come we
-
couldn't get it out? What's going on?
-
Ba ba, ba, ba ba ba. He's like, Nah, Nah, Nah, Nah,
-
y'all are not focused on the right thing.
-
You have to have focus in the development of your belief.
-
This kind only comes out by prayer and fasting.
-
That's why we are a prayer and fasting church because we are a
-
church that will always deal with this kind.
-
And let me challenge you, if you feel an aversion towards
-
participating in prayer and fasting, maybe you need to
-
question your hearing. I'm just leave that there.
-
But all of this to say is as we are all on our quest to greater
-
belief and understanding that Jesus is there and present in
-
the chaos and His name is the key to our full freedom and
-
deliverance, let's keep that prayer in our focus.
-
Lord help my unbelief. Amen.
-
Amen. Help my unbelief.
-
I remember Pastor Terrence saying you believe, but now
-
consider the areas where you have unbelief and quickly I'm
-
almost like Holy Spirit, that was too quick.
-
Quickly 2 areas came straight to mind where I'm saying, OK, yes,
-
yes, there's areas of unbelief where God you're moving and
-
you're challenging me. And, and there's, there's
-
something about that awareness. There's something where the
-
awareness to to belief capacity needs to, needs to be revealed.
-
And that's kind of the honesty part, right?
-
Yeah. One thing you say capacity, one
-
thing that came to me was, was this the unbelief in the last
-
5%, Like I can believe 95% but I'm cool.
-
I'm not going the last 5%. It's OK if I don't.
-
If I don't have that, it's OK. I believe 95% worth and
-
sometimes do the last 5%, it'll take you twice as much effort as
-
it did the 1st 95. You got to go deeper, you got to
-
examine more. You got to give yourself to the
-
word more and to the Lord more to get that last five.
-
So sometimes I just live with 95 rather than say God.
-
I want to have the fullness of belief like you talked about.
-
And God kind of challenged me with that, you know, to go sick,
-
man, go all the way, even if though it gets harder as you go
-
and more is required of you as you go, still press in.
-
So that's part of where that capacity component I feel
-
challenged by. And that's kind of related to
-
this next question I had, which is, is your belief dependent
-
upon what you see? I think it's dependent upon what
-
you see and your past experiences shape your predicted
-
perspective. And I think so sometimes.
-
Like, I had a conversation with a dear friend recently and we
-
were talking about, I was like, Oh, yeah, I always, I've always
-
wanted such and such and such. And then later that night, the
-
Lord convicted me and he was like you, you might still want
-
X&X&X, but you don't believe for it anymore.
-
So somewhere along the line, my past behavior had reshaped and
-
reframed how I think about the promises of the Lord for me.
-
So I even then I had to like rewire myself and go, no, I
-
still desire those things. And I believe that the Lord will
-
fulfill his promises to me. Blessed is she so, yeah.
-
That's powerful. And part of that I think,
-
connects to us having a greater awareness of the unseen realm
-
where God moves and his word alive.
-
The word is, yeah, we've got the the physical word in my tablet
-
or, or in the Bible. But his word alive in me becomes
-
that foundation of yeah, well, I actually believe what he says
-
about it too. Yeah.
-
What happens when it doesn't make sense?
-
Well, for me, that's what a perfector comes in.
-
Ain't got to make sense. You don't.
-
You don't have to make sense. You know all the I don't need
-
resolution, I don't need resolve, I don't need closure.
-
God, I'm just following you and being with you is good enough
-
whether it makes sense or not. You explain it all at the end.
-
So I say it allows me just to focus on on trusting him, almost
-
believing more in him than whether it has to make sense or
-
not, right? Yes, and trust in him.
-
I think part of it too is you have to take an even if he
-
doesn't stance and that's the trust trusting him.
-
And so I know for me the two areas got identified that I'm
-
struggling. It was quick for me too.
-
So he was like, bye, bye, bye. Said whoa, OK.
-
But it wasn't that part of me is I I justified my lack of belief.
-
I said I don't need to believe it anymore.
-
My faith has matured. But that wasn't the case.
-
I'd let my belief grow cold. I just stopped because I hadn't
-
seen. It my belief grow cold.
-
That's good. I I didn't, I had no evidence,
-
but there's this word Elder Roseanne preached when we were
-
back in New West. And it's the even if he doesn't
-
word, will you still believe? And that it was like ringing in
-
my ears. Even if he doesn't, even if it
-
never switches, will you still believe?
-
And will you fan the flames of your belief in this season?
-
I think should pray to that. Amen.
-
Oh Lord, fan the flames of our belief Fire starters, let's go
-
fan the flames of belief in this season.
-
Lord, let our belief grow cold. Identify the areas where our
-
belief has experienced rigor mortis, where there is a
-
freezing, where there is a death, where there is a
-
coldness, and activate. Breathe new life into our
-
belief. Thank you that we are a people
-
that actually can breathe new life into our belief when we
-
speak. So church, speak belief right
-
now. Speak life right now.
-
Thank you, Lord, that you are a man of your word.
-
You are a God who does not lie. Your word never returns void.
-
And Father, thank you that even if you don't answer the prayer
-
in the way we perceive God, in the way we think it should be
-
done, Your word remains. And you, you stay faithful, You
-
stay true, you stay trustworthy because you are love.
-
You are our Redeemer. You are our healer.
-
You are our king of kings. We thank you for your name.
-
Everything we need is within your name.
-
And so, God, let us fan the flames of our belief tonight.
-
Let us stir up our faith tonight.
-
Stir up our faith tonight, Church, stir up your faith
-
tonight. Let's just take a moment.
-
I want everybody just to pray in your heavenly prayer language if
-
you have one. This is how we stir up our
-
faith. Lord, we thank you for your
-
word, we thank you for your promises and we thank you for
-
the the the commissioning for us to be fire starters.
-
And so tonight, love quest repeat after me, say, Lord, help
-
my unbelief in Jesus. Name.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
Amen. Elder John.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
Amen. So I want to focus on reminding
-
us before we pray about these ideas of dimensions pastor's
-
been talking about and it's 2 phases. 1 is in Latter Day
-
Saints LADDER from Genesis 28, in which Jacob, I believe was
-
laying down on the rock and he has a vision of a ladder.
-
He's in a circumstance but sees a picture of something that
-
transitions to new dimensions. And so Pastor said to this idea
-
that seasons though he was in a season, God gave him a vision
-
for a dimension. Seasons are are versus
-
dimensions. It's the difference between
-
clocks and doors and when and where don't move at the right
-
time, but move through the open door.
-
Ladders are symbols of transition to new dimensions.
-
Seasons are entered by patients. Dimensions are entered by
-
invitation. A season is when leaves change.
-
A dimension is when DNA changes. When you change on the inside.
-
Seasons deal with the outside. Dimensions deal with the inside
-
of who you are in character. Seasons shift your scenery, but
-
dimensions shift your spirit. An indication of the shift is
-
that your circle is fainting from your altitude.
-
As you go to a different dimension, your circle around
-
you that has not transitioned will begin to faint and to fall
-
off, and that's just the way it goes.
-
It's important to understand this, and this is the one that
-
really hit me out of that series.
-
We are entering a season of angelic trafficking caused by
-
prayer, revelation, and purpose. Jacob saw angels going up and
-
down on the ladder. We are entering a season of
-
angelic trafficking caused by prayer, revelation, and purpose.
-
And after I studied and meditated on that, I remembered
-
the word about Jesus, when Jesus told his people, you shall see
-
angels going up and down on the Son of Man, the same picture of
-
a ladder. But where Jacob's ladder was in
-
a place, Jesus was with him wherever he went.
-
So wherever the Son of Man is there, that's where the angels
-
are going up and down. And if he's living in you, you
-
got those angels going up and down on your behalf and you're
-
always living under an open heaven because Jesus is a
-
movable open heaven, if you will.
-
But what's the impact of these dimensions?
-
I went to the other series pastor talked about we all gone
-
from Acts 5. That's the story.
-
Peter's in jail and people are praying he gets busted out of
-
jail. The doors are still locked.
-
He goes back to preaching the reason he was thrown in jail.
-
So the Kingdom tension reveals transition.
-
Whenever you see Kingdom tension is probably because of
-
transition. You're maturing is challenging
-
hell strategy in God's creativity.
-
You're going to another dimension.
-
It's maturing. It's developing you.
-
It's perfecting, it's helping your unbelief.
-
It's remembering those words when you go into that, bless
-
God, it's it's, it's challenging health strategy.
-
New dimensions provide new assistance.
-
New seasons alone never could. A new dimension gives you new
-
help. New dimension gives you new
-
grace. New dimension gives you new
-
access that you could never have in just a season.
-
Sometimes you'll struggle. Our struggle is because we're
-
trying to get a relief in a season that only a new dimension
-
can really bring us. You need someone to foot the
-
ladder. That means to hold it on the
-
bottom so it tells you dimensions ain't just an
-
individual thing. We need each other to get into
-
the dimensions that God's calling us to.
-
You can't do it on your own. If if God opened the door, he
-
can open the hallway. Keep going.
-
It's not just an open door. They didn't just get back up,
-
they showed back up. So when you operate in this
-
dimension, when Peter got out of jail, he went right back to the
-
assignment that got him thrown in jail.
-
He didn't let the new dimension change what God had destined for
-
him to do. By the time people see the
-
evidence of your new dimension, Heaven has already finished the
-
work. There are people making plans
-
for a version of you that doesn't exist anymore.
-
A new dimension takes you to a place that people don't even
-
understand, even as they plan and focus on the old you.
-
Here's the one that really was the bomb drop for me.
-
As you go through these new dimensions, remember this
-
breakthrough caused by dimensional shifts are
-
generational. God is calling us up higher to
-
new dimensions for generations sake.
-
God is calling us higher to new dimensions for bloodline sake.
-
Man, wow. So God, we welcome those new
-
dimensions. Amen.
-
Amen. New dimensions.
-
One of the lines you spoke about was the line Pastor has talked
-
about Kingdom tension reveals transition.
-
Can we talk a little bit about what that how that reveals?
-
I think with transition always puts pressure on your systems,
-
right And the fact you're getting pressure on certain
-
systems indicated transition. Here's the picture, right
-
airplane. Airplane is safe on the ground
-
and airplanes really safe flying at cruising altitude.
-
The the place where the airplane experiences the greatest stress
-
is on take off and land transitioning from one dimension
-
to another. That's when all the heat sensors
-
and the pressure readings go up high because you transitioning
-
to new dimensions, right? And so that transition will
-
really put pressure on you. There's a tension that comes
-
because you leave in one space into another space.
-
So that tension is actually revealed in that, let's say the
-
shaking or the the the pressure on the lift on an airplane.
-
It's actually a revealing of that of that change that shift.
-
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Anything you guys want to add?
-
I think like a physical example of that is when you're
-
transitioning from say an old home to a new home.
-
If you're in the situation where you have found your dream home
-
and you have purchased that home, you are now paying the
-
mortgage on that new home. But if you have yet to sell your
-
old home, there is a new found pressure to make that sale go
-
through because you run the risk of paying to mortgages.
-
And that can be a difficult transition point financially.
-
And so sometimes it may feel like in that transition, you're
-
willing to lose some things. Maybe you end up accepting a
-
lower price for the old in order to make room for the new.
-
But, and that can also cause tension in us.
-
But I think one of the words that have been going on is we
-
have to let go of the good to make room for what God has.
-
So sometimes letting go of the good, it can feel like there's a
-
loss or a deficit that takes place and that can add tension
-
to the transition. But part of our faith and our
-
trust and our stepping out a new belief and that new dimension of
-
belief is understanding and knowing that God has said
-
greater is coming and He will make up for the loss that we are
-
currently feeling as we enter. Yeah, fantastic.
-
There's we enter. There was a statement about we
-
entered dimensions through encounter and revelation.
-
We also entered dimensions through patience.
-
How do we posture for this? How do we position ourselves?
-
Yeah, I was going to say fast fasting and praying is a great
-
way to do that. I think a willingness to change
-
the there's a saying if you want something different, you got to
-
do something that you haven't done before or something along
-
the lines. You have to be willing to do
-
things differently. So maybe it is getting up
-
earlier, maybe it's reading your word at a different time of the
-
day, maybe it's putting on worship music, maybe different
-
times a day when you're driving, whatever, whatever the
-
circumstances. But by you physically posturing
-
yourself differently and doing things differently sends a
-
signal to the brain that change is coming.
-
And you actually create solidified neural pathways that
-
might not currently exist to fire together.
-
And the more things fire together, the more they rewire
-
together. So that's part of like the
-
renewing of the mind, but that comes with the willingness to do
-
something different that you've never done before, to get
-
something that you've not had yet.
-
I would add to that too, is by really focusing on how you
-
reposition yourself in your current position.
-
Sometimes we want to reposition for the new, but not reposition
-
for where we are. And if we understand that I'm in
-
a dimension now on my way to another dimension, that
-
automatically shifts how I'm seeing where I am now.
-
And that prepares me then to be open for where God wants to take
-
me. Because now I'm just thinking
-
dimension all the time versus season all the time.
-
How much does awareness help us to prepare?
-
And I said that because Posterius talked about how the
-
enemy is sometimes attacking us from where we're going to, not
-
necessarily where we are now. So awareness I think.
-
Awareness is critical for it. That's why I thank God for the
-
prophetic words to get released in our house because God is
-
sending us the Word to help us become aware.
-
Should we be aware internally and spiritually?
-
Sure we should. But when we're deaf spiritually,
-
He'll send an audible word to us to help us become prepared and
-
be aware. And the great thing about a
-
prophetic word that it gets written down.
-
If you write it down, it gets written down, which means you
-
can go back to it and you can continue to be made aware by
-
that same word exactly as it was given.
-
And that can help guide you over the long term.
-
So. Amen.
-
Well, John, let's pray. All right, we're going to pray
-
into that, that into that. So go ahead and get yourself
-
stirred up if you don't know how to pray into those things.
-
One thing you can begin with just thanking God.
-
God, thank you for new dimensions.
-
Thank you for new dimensions. Thank you for new dimensions.
-
Thank you for a dimensional shift in my thinking.
-
Thank you that I'm thinking about dimensions now where I am
-
now in the place where I exist. Father, I thank you.
-
I'm understanding the dimension of my I'm in and my heart is
-
postured to go for the dimension you're calling me to.
-
Father, I receive the greats, the transition to new dimension.
-
I receive the revelation. I receive the desire to pray.
-
I receive all that's required and all that's necessary to go
-
from one dimension to the next dimension.
-
Oh, Godfather, we thank you. We thank you.
-
We thank you God. And now, God, we ask you to do
-
it what's required to open our eyes to new dimensions, Do
-
what's required to shift us to new dimensions.
-
Everything that we just summarize about these new
-
dimensions. God, do it in us.
-
Do it in US, Lord, do it in us. Do it in our thinking.
-
Do it in our praying, do it in our fasting, do it in our
-
giving, change and shift dimensions, God, and every
-
aspect of who we are and every aspect of how we live and every
-
aspect of how we pray. Help us to become more aware of
-
these dimensional shifts, God, and let us anchor ourselves to
-
you as these shifts do occur. Lord God, we thank you, God,
-
that you're doing dimensional shifts in our lives.
-
We have. You're helping us see ourselves
-
different for the sake of our generations and our bloodline.
-
You open us be different on the inside for the sake of our
-
bloodlines, God. You're perfected and maturing
-
us, God, in your sight for the sake of our bloodlines.
-
God, we thank you that we are dimensional people shaped by
-
dimensional God with a dimensional word led by
-
dimensional spirit and a dimensional Savior.
-
It's resurrected in a dimensional power and cleanse
-
through the dimensional blood of Jesus Christ.
-
Father, we thank you so very much, God, that we're growing
-
the knowledge and understanding of new dimensions.
-
Take us where you need to go. Angels go to and fro.
-
We're open, we're ready. God, let us see the dimensions
-
you've long to show us and share with us in Jesus name, Amen.
