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.
-
It feels, really. Good in the room church I'm.
-
So excited to be here. If you do not know me, my name
-
is Dylan. I'm one of the ordained.
-
Pastors here at Love Quest. International Church and I thank
-
you. I am so excited to have this
-
opportunity to hold this microphone and share.
-
A word that the Lord. Put on my heart for each and
-
everyone of you, and I just pray that it in.
-
It helps Jesus Christ. Manifest in your own personal
-
life. The goal of a believer of Jesus
-
Christ is that. We become like.
-
Christ that our life is. So united.
-
To the life of Christ, that we do the.
-
Same works that Jesus did and greater.
-
Because that's what Jesus said. Is in our future.
-
For those that follow Christ. According to Mark 16, he says
-
those who believe in my name, they shall do the same works and
-
greater. And so I'm believing that the
-
same works that Jesus did on earth manifest in each and every
-
one of our lives here on this church.
-
Why? Because there is a lost.
-
And dying world that needs to know.
-
Of the love of God. That needs to see Jesus Christ
-
tangibly. At work.
-
Here on Earth, in their life. And so that's what.
-
We gather. For is to become more like.
-
Christ, we gather so that. We can be built up under the
-
words so that we can scatter and make an impact in our nation.
-
Amen. Amen.
-
So I'm just going to begin. Dave, you can put 30. 5 minutes
-
on the. Clock.
-
That'd be great. I'm just going to begin by just
-
thanking our pastors, Pastor Terrence and Pastor Julia.
-
Excuse me, Pastor Julia, for entrusting me with this
-
opportunity. I do not.
-
Take it lightly that they would. Hand the microphone to me and
-
say we trust what's in you to share and and and give a word
-
that's going to. Equip.
-
And build up the church. And so I'm just grateful for
-
pastors that love me enough, that have equipped me, that
-
mobilized me in the. Gifts of the of.
-
The Lord that are on my life so that I can be a blessing, so
-
that I can. Serve you guys.
-
With what the Lord gave me. So thank you, Pastor T and.
-
Pastor Julia, just for your. Trust in myself now who knows
-
that there is an exciting word, prophetic word that is going
-
forth in our house right now. This word that the wind is
-
blowing, the wind is blowing. This is an exciting word.
-
Because the. Spirit is often referred to.
-
As. The wind in the word.
-
Of God. But the wind is.
-
Also referred to as. Turmoil when we look at when
-
the. Disciples are in a boat.
-
Crossing the lake, the wind kicks up and it really tests and
-
tries their faith. In that moment, Jesus likens
-
someone who lives according to the Word and builds their life
-
on the Word as a man who built his house on the rock and the
-
wind. The turmoil will come to try
-
that foundation and the rain comes, but the house that is
-
built on the Word of God shall stand through the turmoil.
-
And so this wind blowing is exciting.
-
It is exciting. For those who are rooted in
-
Christ. The thing with the wind?
-
Is it? It has the ability to both
-
quench a fire, put a fire out if there's.
-
Too much if you if you put too much oxygen into.
-
A fire at the early. Stage You can actually blow that
-
thing out like you blow out a birthday candle, but the right
-
amount of oxygen and wind comes. To give life to that fire.
-
And and 'cause that thing to burn bright and.
-
Establish that fire. And so I just believe that wind
-
is a good thing. Wind is a good thing for those
-
who are hungry. Those who are excited, those who
-
are ready. For the wind to.
-
Blow like a. Sailboat setting its sails for
-
the wind to fold it and take it where that wind is going.
-
That is US. Church at this hour.
-
And so another thing I wanted to.
-
Share as I was. Preparing the word and just
-
listening to the word going forth, I think, man, the word
-
of. God is for the.
-
House, yes, but it ministers to each and every one of us
-
individually. And I just thought to myself,
-
Lord, what does the wind meant to me in in my life so far?
-
And some of you may know I by trade am a power lineman.
-
OK, I'm called. As a preacher of the gospel,
-
that's what I. Want to be doing full time but
-
in the meantime, as Paul made tense, I fixed power lines.
-
So. That I can afford to live in
-
this beautiful city that we call home.
-
And so when the wind blows, that's when I often go to work
-
because the power line. Is affected.
-
By wind blow OK, branches fall, trees come down and just old
-
power system. It fails when the wind blows and
-
so. I.
-
Started thinking about what this means.
-
The wind blows and. We as the people of God are
-
called to. Bring the power.
-
Of God to the people. Much like a lineman has the job
-
to bring. Power electricity to the people.
-
And my job as a lineman is to maintain the power lines to
-
ensure that the power is flowing.
-
And each and everyone of. Us, we have.
-
An an obligation to make sure that the.
-
Power is. Flowing in our life.
-
Jesus says that you will. Know a tree by its fruit there
-
should be evidence of the power working in US, flowing through
-
us. And so as I just meditated on
-
this word, I understand that being a.
-
Follower of Christ. Is not all easy all the time.
-
The moment you. Say yes to the Lord.
-
It invites opposition coming your way simultaneously.
-
As of as the Blessed blessed hope assure.
-
Blessed assurance of the hope that we have in Christ.
-
There is opposition. And so Pastor has been preaching
-
also on this. Subject that we are to.
-
Battle and. Build as followers of Christ.
-
There at the same time that we are building the Kingdom with a
-
shovel in our hand. We are also to be.
-
Battling against the opposition in the spirit realm that's
-
coming to slow us down. And so this night I'm going to
-
continue to preach on this subject.
-
Battle and build. With the subtitle purified for
-
power. And here we go with my power
-
lines in the background there. As that visual so tonight.
-
Join with me. As I take you through this word
-
I believe I got from the Lord. We're going to continue to
-
unpack, battle, and build Purified.
-
For. Power, and in this context I
-
more so want to. Speak to the believer that as he
-
follows Christ, what it looks like to battle.
-
And to build as a. Follower of Christ, Paul wrote
-
to the Church of the. Ephesians to each of the.
-
Followers. His desire was that the
-
followers. Become like Christ, as we've
-
been talking about. So.
-
Far and this is a. Powerful, powerful prayer.
-
That Paul gets on his knees and. Prays for the Church of of
-
Ephesus. He says for this.
-
Reason I bow my knees to the. Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
-
From whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, that
-
he would grant you. According to the riches of his
-
glory. To be strengthened with might.
-
Through His spirit. In the inner man that Christ may
-
dwell in your. Hearts through faith that you.
-
Being rooted and grounded in love may be able to comprehend
-
with all the Saints. What is the width?
-
And length and depth and height to.
-
Know the love of Christ. Which passes knowledge that you
-
may be. Filled turn, your neighbors say.
-
That you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
-
And so that was a lot, but what we see.
-
Here Paul is praying that God himself.
-
Would grant you to be. Strengthened by His spirit in
-
your spirit, in your inner man, and that you would come to this
-
encounter. With the love of God to the
-
point that. Jesus Christ would remain sat on
-
the throne of your. Heart that Jesus would, truly.
-
Be your Lord and Savior. That you'd be so.
-
Rooted in this love and that you would know this love that's
-
greater than you'll ever be able to understand.
-
So that you can be. Filled with the fullness of God,
-
he's talking about an encounter with the love of God and the.
-
Help of the Holy Ghost to keep. You rooted in that love.
-
To keep. You rooted in that love, and so
-
this is a phenomenal scripture. This is a powerful prayer that I
-
of all the. Prayers in the Bible I.
-
Probably pray this all right play I I.
-
Pray Psalm 23 a lot. Too, But if this is a powerful
-
prayer. That I pray for myself and those
-
that I'm truly believe in, for each and everyone of you to grow
-
in the things of the Lord. This.
-
Is a powerful prayer, but something was really highlighted
-
about this prayer. It's the next.
-
Scripture don't turn to it. Yet but.
-
The Who? Who knows?
-
That the word of God is alive. That it is.
-
Living and that it is active and man, you can look at the same
-
scripture 112 times and on the 113th time the Lord just reveals
-
something totally new and fresh and different to you.
-
Well, it's the. Scripture next here verse 20.
-
Paul goes on to say now to him who is able to do exceedingly
-
abundantly. Above all that we could.
-
Ask or think, and that's where the states.
-
Start shouting and saying yeah yeah God do it.
-
But the last few words are what really popped out at me.
-
Here in this word, Saints. It's he tagged, he tagged.
-
Onto it by saying according. To the power that works.
-
In US, which almost suggests that the exceedingly abundantly
-
above all that we are believing for relies on depends on.
-
The power, that is. Working in US, which almost puts
-
the responsibility on the. Believer you could have.
-
An entire hydro dam. Full of water.
-
Which is potential? Which is.
-
Power. And you could exceed the demands
-
of the city. You could abundantly supply the
-
demands of that. City but if the power.
-
Lines aren't working. You can't get that power to the
-
city and so. As I was seeing this through a
-
fresh lens, I said wow. We have work to do as a church.
-
To ensure that we keep. Our hearts pure before the Lord.
-
It's not enough to just receive Jesus.
-
Christ, you're my Lord and savior.
-
Boom, I got my one way ticket to heaven.
-
Now I can keep it pushing and living the same way I've been
-
living. No, there is.
-
A. There is a good work.
-
There is a good work. That's involved.
-
To fight the good fight of faith.
-
In order to walk in the true. Power that God desires.
-
Each and everyone of you to walk.
-
In. And so.
-
What the Lord revealed. To me, the revelation I got.
-
Is that it is the? Heart, that is the conductor.
-
Of God's power. Now for you those of you that
-
don't know the conductor. Is the wire.
-
That's on top of the. Power poles that you.
-
See on the side. Of the road these these these
-
wires. Here this is a conductor.
-
Right here, right by Judah. The ones that we have run in the
-
city here, they have 25,000 volts of electricity going
-
through them and. You can do a lot of good with
-
that power. Look at what?
-
We're doing right now. We're preaching the gospel
-
through power. We're letting sound of worship
-
into our streets. Through that electricity.
-
We're lighting up the place. With that electricity, but that.
-
Power mishandled can do a lot of damage.
-
We read about, I don't know if yeah, I'm going to do it because
-
this has been on my mind a lot. We read in in Acts, I want to
-
say like Acts 14, where Peter. Apostle of the Lord.
-
Mighty man of God. Fully sold out for the Lord,
-
filled with the Holy Ghost said as he walked his shadow.
-
Look at. My shadow's about to fall in
-
Effie. Shadow as it.
-
Fell on the sick. People that were laid.
-
Out on the side of the street, they were instantly healed.
-
The power of God was. Flowing in the early.
-
Church of Acts, but we also see. There's a great move of God.
-
People were so compelled to be a part of this move that they're
-
willing to. Sell their property to give to
-
what the apostles were. Doing and there was one couple
-
named Ananias and Sapphira that they're like, man, we want to be
-
a. Part of this powerful.
-
Move of God. They sold their property.
-
And they? Brought it to the apostles.
-
And. There was a part of.
-
Them that was still not all in and they said let us.
-
Stash a little. Emergency fund in.
-
Case this in case we. Need it later and they went and
-
they. Brought the rest.
-
Of the money to the apostles, and said.
-
Here, we sold our stuff. We want to.
-
Give it to the church, this is. All we have, we're going all in.
-
We want to be a part. Of what the church is.
-
Doing And in that moment the Holy Spirit quickened Peter,
-
because remember the power. Of God was with.
-
Flowing through Peter and the church, and he asked Ananias and
-
Sapphira. Is this all that you guys got?
-
Like you say, they said yes. They lied to the man of God in
-
that moment, and in that moment they dropped dead.
-
And what was revealed to me? Is the greater.
-
Of the measure of the outpouring of God's.
-
Glory or of God? 'S power amongst the people, the
-
higher the responsibility there is to walk holy and pure before
-
our holy and pure and just God. This is New Testament to
-
remember and so. The heart is the conductor of
-
God's power. Great.
-
Good. Is done with this power when we
-
walk and live right and pure before.
-
God, but there is great. Damage to be done when you are
-
just part way in and not all in and so the heart is the.
-
Conductor of God's power, or the heart, is the carrier of God's
-
glory of God's. Glory and so according.
-
To the power that works. In US.
-
Is where we see the. Abundantly, above all, we can
-
ask, think or imagine of God, and so according.
-
To the power that works. In US right church and so.
-
The power that works flows through a.
-
Power system that works. Are you catching that in order
-
to get the power from the? Source To the people, there's
-
got to be a healthy power. System in place and we have been
-
given many prophetic words. Over the past few years, but
-
specifically the past. Few months the Lord has been
-
speaking clearly through the man of God, and I want to.
-
Visit this. Word that he preached on October
-
1st. I just want to pull an insert.
-
So this is just a. Fraction of the word that.
-
God spoke through our leader. Our man of God, Pastor Terence.
-
The Lord says Love quest, prepare to see.
-
My glory as Moses asked, show me your glory, I am preparing to
-
show you my goodness. My glory is experienced in the.
-
Heart, the eyes of the heart. The inner man.
-
This is why many will only witness you experiencing my
-
glory. But many will not experience it
-
themselves. Due to the pride.
-
Rebellion. Ego in their what?
-
Hearts I. Exalt the humble, not the.
-
Bible reader I the. Lord exalt the humble, not the
-
worship leader. I.
-
Exalt the humble and my. Levels of rewards.
-
Oh no, sorry. And my glory cannot.
-
Reside where you have allowed pride to take residence.
-
There's levels of rewards. But my glory is not a reward,
-
it's an impartation of my unprecedented.
-
Favour favour. Hallelujah.
-
It's unshakable strength, incomprehensible wisdom.
-
My glory cannot rest in a political.
-
House. It cannot rest in a religious
-
finger or a slandering double edged tongue.
-
My glory will abide. Not just visit, but where my
-
love lives and is made to be welcome.
-
There will my glory live. And so the Lord has spoken that
-
the. Glory of the Lord is.
-
Experienced in the heart. But those who have allowed.
-
Things of the old, the old man pride.
-
What else we got? Rebellion.
-
Ego for those who have allowed. These things to stay unchecked,
-
those will miss. Out.
-
On this mighty move. Of God those.
-
Will miss out on the. Glory that the Lord desires.
-
Each and every one of us to encounter and experience and.
-
Carry those who are. Unwilling to humble themselves.
-
Before the Lord. And say search my.
-
Heart, O God. And if there be anything of it
-
that offends you, reveal it to me that I can do away with it.
-
Because I desire to be purified by your love.
-
That I can walk in the. Power of the Lord.
-
Amen, Amen. And so tonight I'm I'm doing a
-
lot less talking about the enemy, the.
-
Devil because I believe. With my whole.
-
Heart that all authority. In heaven on earth has been
-
given to Jesus Christ our Lord and.
-
Savior. So if he's.
-
Got it all. How much?
-
Does the devil have? Zero simple math, and so I'm not
-
discounting that the enemy is not.
-
A deceiver. And that he is not.
-
Tricky. And that he is not.
-
Good at what he does. For the deception of the.
-
Lord is or of the. Enemy is a real thing, but the
-
Lord really impressed it on my heart tonight to speak to each
-
and everyone of you of the deception of your own unrenewed
-
mind, and we cannot contribute that to the enemy.
-
The Bible tells us that we. I'm going to talk about it later
-
that we become transformed by changing or renewing our mind
-
according to the word of God and so.
-
Power that works flows. Through a power system that
-
works and so I'm going. To share with you 2.
-
Common. Threats to the electrical.
-
Power system that I work on on a week.
-
To week basis specifically these?
-
Common threats I come across on what we call trouble call when
-
the power goes out the phone rings hey do you want to come
-
help fix the power and two common threats to our power
-
system is old plant speaking to these are.
-
Old poles that. Have been in the ground for
-
60-70 years old. They're rotting and they're
-
falling apart. And another.
-
Threat is dead branches. There are these branches that
-
are. Barely hanging on to the trees
-
that when the wind blows, they get knocked off and they land on
-
our power lines. They bridge the power line.
-
Short circuit the system. Burn the wires down and then we
-
got to go put the wire back up in the air and so 2 common.
-
Threats to the power. System is old plants and dead
-
branches. Now I want to try and translate
-
this to the believers life. All right, are you with me?
-
Because remember the. Heart is the.
-
Conductor that the power. Or the glory of God flows.
-
Through and So what might be two common threats to the power
-
system of my heart? Well, let's look at old.
-
Plant, old plant, could be the unrenewed mind, The unrenewed
-
mind. OK, this is the mind that I've
-
been living with. Up to.
-
Up my whole life since since I came out of the womb sinful by
-
nature. You didn't have to tell me.
-
What jealousy was just put a toy?
-
Between my brother and I and I already.
-
Knew what jealousy was. OK.
-
We inherited A sinful nature and so old plan is unredeemed mind.
-
It's a threat to the. Power system, old man habits.
-
I think it could group this in with the unrenewed mind, but old
-
man habits can be man trauma I've experienced in the.
-
Past has caused me to. Respond in this way undealt with
-
wounds caused me to move in a certain way, but who knows that
-
when you become a new. Creation in Christ old.
-
Things are dead and gone. All things are made new, but we
-
need to learn to walk in those new things and the mind of the.
-
Flesh so these. Are pretty much all saying the
-
same thing in different. Ways a.
-
Second, threat to the power system.
-
Dead branches. These are the works of the
-
flesh. We read about them in Galatians.
-
Five, it talks about the fruit of the Spirit, which is the.
-
Evidence of the Holy Spirit at work in you, which is love,
-
peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness,
-
faithfulness, self-control. That's the evidence that the
-
Spirit is at work in you. Well, there's also the works of
-
the flesh, which is. Evidence that you're just
-
living. By what feels good you're.
-
Living according to the flesh. You're living by the sinful
-
nature of your flesh, and you can read about those in
-
Galatians 5. Old man habits slash responses,
-
Mind of the flesh. OK, and so dead branches and old
-
plant speak. A lot to the old way.
-
Of doing things in a believer's life.
-
Romans 12. Verse 2 says.
-
Do not be conformed to this world, meaning don't allow this
-
world to. Shape the way that you.
-
Live and move and respond and act.
-
Do not be conformed to this world.
-
But. Be transformed by the renewing
-
of your mind, that you may prove.
-
What is that? Good and acceptable and perfect.
-
Will of God or transform? The ruin renewing of your mind
-
so that you can truly experience the power that works.
-
I feel to just speak to you guys.
-
About the body, soul and spirit, do you guys all know?
-
That we are a body. We have this earth suit that.
-
No, sorry. We are a spirit. 1st and.
-
Foremost because before God. Knit you together in your mama's
-
womb. He knew you and God's A.
-
Spirit. So if he knew you, that speaks.
-
To how you are an eternal spirit being.
-
We possess a soul. That is the mind, will and
-
emotions, and we live in this. Body this earth suit.
-
OK, so you're a spirit. You possess the.
-
Soul, you live in a. Body try part.
-
Being OK when you become born again, your spirit, which was
-
one dead, becomes alive. OK, Your mind.
-
Your mind, which is your willing and your emotions.
-
Your thinker, your chooser. It is so used.
-
To being led by your. Flesh.
-
Which is a fallen nature. So you see your spirit.
-
Man is outnumbered 2 to one and. This is where the.
-
Wrestle most often takes place in a believer's life.
-
Because I'm trying to be. Spirit LED.
-
I'm trying to obey the. Words of Jesus which are.
-
Spirit and life, but my mind is so used to living according to
-
the flesh and so I am caught in this back and forth between good
-
and evil. It's not until we renew our mind
-
I'm going to be careful how I do.
-
This there it is. That we become single minded.
-
Our soul is our. The mind of the flesh.
-
It now becomes the mind of the. Spirit.
-
And who knows that 2 outnumbers 1 and in due season the things
-
of the natural are more impacted by the things of the
-
supernatural and your. Flesh will have to.
-
Come into alignment with your soul and your spirit, but you
-
don't actually experience the transformation in the natural
-
until that renewing of the mind takes place.
-
I'll have you know I did practice that move before I came
-
on stage. And so we are to.
-
Renew our minds to truly. Experience the power that works.
-
And so Romans 8 lets us know. That there is a battle that we
-
are. In the midst.
-
Of he says those. Who let their sinful old selves
-
tell them what to? Do live.
-
Under that power of their sinful old selves.
-
But say, but those who let the holy.
-
Spirit tell them what to do are. Under his power if your.
-
Sinful. Old self is the boss.
-
Over your mind, remember. It leads to death, but if the
-
Holy Spirit is the boss. Over your mind, your soul.
-
It leads to life. And peace Hallelujah, the mind
-
that thinks only. Of ways to please the.
-
Sinful old self is fighting against God.
-
It is not. Able to obey God's.
-
Law. It never can.
-
Ever. And so we are in a battle.
-
As we follow Jesus Christ. We are in a battle against.
-
Our flesh. As we simultaneously are
-
building ourselves up in spirit and what the wind comes to do is
-
it comes to rustle and shake and expose the things of the flesh.
-
Agitate 1 might say the things of the flesh that are in the way
-
of the power flowing in our life.
-
This. Though uncomfortable is actually
-
the goodness and grace and mercy.
-
Of God, because there's. Things that are in the way of
-
you experiencing power at work within you and so.
-
We are to. Invite the wind, wind come
-
reveal the things of the. Flesh that are.
-
In opposition towards you and wind, Holy Spirit blow and bring
-
to life. The word of God.
-
And Holy Spirit, come and and help me.
-
Build in the Spirit. Holy Spirit, speak through our
-
leaders. Speak through our pastors
-
minister. Through our worship.
-
Team build me up in spirit and then.
-
Through this process of. Battling against the flesh and
-
building up in. Spirit it is that.
-
We may be. Purified for power.
-
Shout it out. I'm purified for power.
-
Hallelujah. And so the most reliable power
-
system consists of new. Plants as well as a.
-
Vegetation crew. So a vegetation.
-
Crew is. People that specialize in
-
cutting trees down and they can do it safely in the proximity of
-
the. Power.
-
What does this? Look like in the.
-
Believer's life. The vegetation.
-
Crew is invited to purge the old John 15.
-
Jesus says I'm the vine. My father is the vine dresser.
-
He he cuts. Dead branches away that don't
-
produce fruit. But he goes on to say in.
-
Verse 3 that you have. Already been cleansed by the.
-
Word of God The Word of God is useful for.
-
Correction the invite. The word of God, which is
-
Jesus's. Word.
-
Which he said is spirit and life.
-
Invite the word to. Expose the things in your.
-
Life that got to go. Renewed minds We welcome the
-
vegetation crew to come and I. Skipped.
-
I skipped the slide here. We welcome the wind, the
-
vegetation crew. We, we welcome the wind to show
-
us, expose us, man. What's?
-
Loose What is out of order? What's got to go?
-
We welcome the wind and. Hebrews 12 talks about the the
-
Lord allows. The shaking to.
-
Reveal what is. Unshakeable that the great
-
shaking exposes and removes. That which is shakeable, the
-
Bible says that we are to. Stay vigilant, A vegetation crew
-
needs to stay on top of ensuring those power lines of clear of
-
all debris and we are warned in first.
-
Peter that we are to. Stay vigilant and sober minded
-
for the enemy is roam is roaming around like a lion seeking whom
-
he can devour and who knows that lions.
-
Are flesh eaters. They look for those that are
-
caught up. In the mind of the flesh, right
-
and. So what else is consist Builds a
-
reliable power plant? Is new plant that speaks to new
-
life in Christ man, the moment you receive Jesus Christ as your
-
Lord and savior, you are a new creation in.
-
Christ. Following that, you got to renew
-
your mind by the. Word of God.
-
How you once live is not how you continue to live as a.
-
Follower of Christ and lastly. The baptism of the.
-
Holy Spirit, this speaks to the full.
-
Submerging or the full overtaking of the Holy Spirit in
-
your life the someone wants to ask me, man, how do you know if
-
you've been. Baptized by the Holy Spirit.
-
Or how do you know if you? Fully got the Holy Ghost.
-
And I heard a preacher once say, well, you know.
-
By if the Holy Ghost fully has you, you.
-
Have the fullness of the Holy Spirit when the Holy Spirit has
-
the fullness of you. And so maybe you've been trying
-
up to this point to? See The Power of God.
-
At work in your life and you and you still feel like, man, I'm
-
not seeing that power working in my life.
-
Well, this is the. Season where the Lord wants to
-
take you or He wants to invite. You to this place.
-
Where you count the cost and go all in.
-
We have another prophetic word that says some of you are in,
-
but it's time for you to go. All in my life.
-
I was raised. Christian but it wasn't till I
-
was 27 years old where. I received the.
-
Baptism of the Holy Ghost. But it was.
-
Followed by a moment in my life where I count the.
-
Cost. Pastor asked me.
-
What are you willing to? Give for the sake of the gospel.
-
And that question hit me and I went home and I wrestled with
-
that question. What am I willing to give?
-
For the sake of the Gospel. And I counted the cost and I put
-
on there everything I held dear to me.
-
Career image, my truck, my home, my dreams, everything.
-
And then later on it was within a few weeks, pastor invited me
-
up. Those who haven't received the
-
baptism, the Holy Spirit come. And there was.
-
I believe it is. Because of my all in, I was
-
fully on board for following Christ.
-
I was fully in, all in, and the Holy Spirit had all of me.
-
And that's where that moment of the baptism, the Holy.
-
Spirit, I had all. Of him and so in this moment
-
church, I'm just going to invite any of you.
-
That that, that desire to just. Take a fresh stand and say from
-
this moment forth, I want to go all in for the Holy.
-
Spirit. I want to go all into following
-
Christ because I want the Spirit to be all in in my life.
-
I just invite you to. Stand as we close in prayer, in
-
this moment and just. Believe for a great.
-
Outpowering of the Spirit worship team.
-
I'm just going to invite you to come back up.
-
Hallelujah, the Lord is here. The Lord is here.
-
Father, we just thank you. So much.
-
For your great love for. Each and every one of us.
-
We thank you. For the new life that we have
-
in. Jesus Christ, Father, I thank
-
you that you desire for your power to work.
-
In each and every one of our. Lives I thank you that you
-
desire for us, Lord, to be a light.
-
Shining bright that we can truly impact.
-
The world. With the good news.
-
Of Jesus Christ. In this moment.
-
We see that your. Wind is blowing.
-
We invite your wind to keep blowing in each and every one of
-
our hearts and holy. Spirit, we just.
-
Thank you We. Thank you that you are the free.
-
Gift from our Father to. Every follower of Christ,
-
according to Acts 238 for the gift of the Holy Spirit, is for
-
all who call. Upon the name of Jesus.
-
Christ. So I thank you in this moment,
-
hearts are making the decision to go from in to all in that
-
there is a counting of the cost and there is a laying everything
-
down before. The feet of Jesus.
-
Holy Spirit, come fall afresh on every son and daughter in this
-
place, Lord God. As.
-
Hearts give themselves fully to you.
-
We thank you that holy. Spirit you fully give yourself
-
to. All who call upon you.
-
We. Thank you for it now in the
-
mighty name. Of Jesus Christ, I pray.
-
Amen. Who feels ready, full of new
-
power? I know I do.
-
I'm ready for the week that's ahead and I'm excited for what
-
God has for each of us. So I have an activation for
-
y'all and then we'll get some announcements in and then we
-
will close out. But our activation for you to
-
think about through this week is we talked about two common
-
threats to our power system, the old plant, which is, I summed it
-
up, the unrenewed mind and the dead branches, which are works
-
of the flesh. And so as you go through your
-
week, I want you to ask the Holy Spirit and think about what old
-
plants and dead branches have you identified through the power
-
of the Holy Spirit, the vegetation crew this week?
-
And secondly, how have you allowed the Holy Spirit to set
-
up a new plant, a renewed mind, and a walking in your new man in
-
your life this week? So let's go with intention this
-
week. Let's activate the word, the
-
anointed word that was given to us by Pastor Dylan.
-
And let's take the practical revelation he has given us and
-
apply it to our lives. This is how we walk out our
-
faith and this is how we become stronger and mature believers.
-
Amen, Amen. Thank you Angua.
-
So we have a couple of announcements for you as we
-
close out. First announcement is Pastor
-
Terrence and the crew. We will be in Toronto.
-
We have this week we have a concert coming up.
-
It's Mocktails, the Toronto edition it'll be Sunday, October
-
19th at El Macombo. Doors will be at 6:30 PM.
-
So if you are coming to Toronto, it is a show you don't want to
-
miss or if you're streaming from Toronto, I want to see you all
-
there. Family, we miss you.
-
So come through also our through the ribbon fast will begin
-
October 22nd and we'll go through to November 20th.
-
And we are super excited to fast together because it strengthens
-
us, it unifies us, and it brings us A1 accord with one focus and
-
it empowers us. Also.
-
Our next remnant big giving opportunity will happen on
-
October 26th. So make sure you jot that down.
-
We're building up faith to see this building through to the
-
end. It is our building next door.
-
We are currently renovating. Believe it or not, this is not
-
the actual worship center. We are moving next door to a
-
bigger building where we can all sit inside and it's going to be
-
glorious. And this will become our
-
children's church and our youth center, which is pretty cool.
