  1. Some people say I don't deserve it, but one thing I know is I

  2. have purpose. And while people don't, you know

  3. that you can see you've been working.

  4. You've never seen that one door closes.

  5. Keep us to see like I did the Moses.

  6. It's not to judge me. He turns around and doesn't fit

  7. me. It's my God.

  8. He ain't working. Yeah, that's nothing to do what

  9. you're looking to do with me. All that.

  10. You got it. None.

  11. None. None.

  12. Good morning. Good morning.

  13. Good morning. How's everybody doing today?

  14. Good. How's everybody doing today?

  15. Good. Awesome.

  16. Oh, I heard it all the way from the back.

  17. That was amazing. Welcome so much to our 11:30 AM

  18. experience. Are you guys excited to be in

  19. the House of the Lord? Amazing.

  20. Amazing. I just want to also say welcome

  21. to our online family as well. Always so good when you're

  22. streaming. We love you, We love you, we

  23. love you. So as they're just pulling up a

  24. verse that I want to read, you know, we just actually went into

  25. a week of prayer and fasting and then we ended it with a 2024

  26. hour prayer, which was incredible.

  27. So so I heard, sorry, I was out of town, but I felt the power.

  28. But the cool thing is about about that kind of a monumental

  29. thing. This is our first time praying

  30. overnight all the way into the morning is that we don't

  31. actually have to start anything from scratch.

  32. We're just building off of what we already have put into the

  33. ground, right? We're just building on top of

  34. the the new thing that God is doing.

  35. And so with that in mind, I want to read this verse just to

  36. encourage everybody, but also for you to have something to

  37. hold on to. And it says, There is none like

  38. unto you among the gods, O Lord, neither are there works like

  39. unto yours. All nations whom you have made

  40. shall come and fall down before you, O Lord, and they shall

  41. glorify your name, for you are great and work wonders.

  42. You alone are God. And so we let's just go into a

  43. moment of praise and prayer. We thank you God, if you, if you

  44. want to stand, like feel free to stand and move around.

  45. This is your home as much as it's mine.

  46. So Father God, we thank you that we get to come together, all

  47. nations, all tribes, and all tongues.

  48. We get to worship you, you alone, our God, we thank you,

  49. Father God, that you are doing a new thing and never seen before.

  50. Father God, in each and every one of our lives and us as a

  51. church, us as a community, Father God, we thank you that

  52. you are doing new things. Father God, I thank you that you

  53. have given us the eyes to see the new things because we might

  54. not recognize it, because it's so brand new.

  55. Father God, so will we will we forget the former thing, how we

  56. thought we knew you what we've seen you do Father God, because

  57. you are about to do a brand new thing, Father God for us.

  58. And so we thank you that you are taking us from glory to glory.

  59. You're taking us from level to level.

  60. You're taking us from strength to strength Father God, even our

  61. capacity to worship is going longer.

  62. Our capacity to pray is going longer Father God, because

  63. you're doing a brand new thing in US.

  64. Father God, so I thank you we we glorify you and we worship you

  65. today for you are mighty to to be praised.

  66. There is no one like you you are eternal and you never change no

  67. matter the seasons, you never change no matter the

  68. circumstances, you remain the same Father God and so because

  69. you are a faithful God, we come together and we worship you this

  70. morning. We love to sing your praise

  71. because you have done mighty works.

  72. There's no other God that compared to the works that you

  73. do, Father God. And so we praise you in advance

  74. for the healing that you're doing in our minds.

  75. We're praying, praising you in advance, Father God, for the

  76. healing you're doing in our families.

  77. We're praying using you for in advance already for the healings

  78. and mighty wonders that we're going to see you do because we

  79. have seen you do it over and over and over and over again.

  80. So we praise you, We praise your mighty name.

  81. We glorify you because you are faithful.

  82. You are the same God in the Old Testament.

  83. You're the same God in the New Testament.

  84. And guess what, guys? Same God today, same God today,

  85. same God today. And so as you were doing a brand

  86. new thing for the Israelites back then, you're doing brand

  87. new things for Love Quest today, Father God.

  88. And so we thank you that you've split the sea before and you're

  89. going to split the sea again. Father God, we thank you and we

  90. praise you today, this beautiful, beautiful morning.

  91. We thank you, Father God. Is there something that you're

  92. thankful for that you've got woken up today, that you

  93. actually have a clear mind that you got here safely?

  94. I mean, those, those Vancouver roads, I don't know.

  95. So thank you, God, for getting us here safely, Father God, that

  96. we have hands that we can raise to worship you.

  97. Father God, we thank you that you've given us voices so that

  98. we can praise your holy name. Father God, we thank you that

  99. you've given us limbs so that we can move and we can worship

  100. Father God to bring you glory. And even if we have nothing

  101. else, we say thank you, God, for you've already done it all when

  102. you gave your life and when you rose again, and when you gave us

  103. your Holy Spirit, you have done it all.

  104. And if you do no other thing, we will praise you for the rest of

  105. our days, because you are a good God and you've done it all for

  106. us. So we praise you today.

  107. We want to worship you today. We praise you, Father God, we

  108. want to worship you today. So will you just stand up with

  109. us as we go into a moment of worship?

  110. Those hands that we talked about, you can clap them.

  299. Mackenzie, I hope you're ready for what's going to happen

  300. today. Y'all can go ahead and take your

  301. seats. I hope you're expectant.

  302. Yes, God is good all the time. Hallelujah.

  303. You know I'm here to speak about our remnant project.

  304. Who's remnant project? Ours.

  305. You know what a fantastic thing God is doing?

  306. For those who are not aware of what the Remnant project is, we

  307. are working on the building the other side of this wall and

  308. that's going to become our new worship centre as well.

  309. We're working on changing the building over here to become our

  310. creative hub where people can engage in all sorts of creative

  311. activities, recordings, all sorts of things that we can do

  312. here out of Love Quest. And so it's a powerful project

  313. that we're at work in. It's a great work, great work.

  314. So hard work sometimes. Now, who here has ever done like

  315. a renovation on their house? OK, whoever, who here has ever

  316. built a house? I know a few people who've built

  317. a house before. When you're building a house, it

  318. takes work, it takes planning and it takes finances.

  319. And you know what? We are working, we're working

  320. hard to see what God will do in this place.

  321. And this remnant project is going to be a powerful impact on

  322. the community. So we're working right now to

  323. get a specific goal. Who remembers how much we were

  324. looking to raise? Who remembers 200,000?

  325. That's right. That's what we're working

  326. specifically to, to get into the hands of the contractors to make

  327. sure that they've got all they need to keep working on the

  328. other side here. So I wanted to just share a

  329. couple of things. In Luke chapter 21 and verse one

    Luke 21 chapter mention

  330. to four, Jesus observed all the wealthy coming into the temple

  331. courts wanting to be noticed as they came with their offerings.

  332. And he noticed a very poor widow who dropped off two small copper

  333. coins in the offering box. Listen to me, he said.

  334. This poor widow has given a larger offering than any of the

  335. wealthy, for the rich only gave out of their surplus, but she

  336. sacrificed out of her poverty and gave to God all that she had

  337. to live on. You know, there's a power in

  338. sacrifice, and sacrifice means more than money.

  339. We sacrifice our time. We sacrifice our life.

  340. In Romans 12, verse one, he talks about us giving our lives

  341. as a living sacrifice unto God and that being our reasonable

  342. expectation. There's a power in that.

  343. There's a power in sacrifice. You see, it's not equal giving,

  344. it's equal sacrifice. I want to encourage you today.

  345. If you haven't taken the opportunity to sow a seed into

  346. the remnant project yet, I want to encourage you that that seed

  347. has power. That seed has power, yes,

  348. because as you give it, the Lord will give.

  349. But that seed has power because it will speak to generations.

  350. Now we're working for this $200,000 and I want to give you

  351. a praise report because this last week we received towards

  352. that 200,000 thirty $9238 Praise God.

  353. Now that's a praise report, man. God is good, but not but I'm not

  354. going to say but and we continue and we continue.

  355. We continue pressing. We're going to crush this goal.

  356. We're going to keep on giving. We're going to keep on sharing.

  357. We keep keep on loving those generations that are to come.

  358. I want to encourage you, if you haven't given, give.

  359. If you have given, give. But what God's going to do in

  360. this house will be a reflection of his power at work in this

  361. community. So there's going to be ways to

  362. give. You can see on the screen and

  363. after the service, if you go to a guest services table, they can

  364. help you with the giving towards the remnant project.

  365. Father, thank you that you are doing a great work.

  366. I thank you, Lord. We're stepping in and owning

  367. this work. We're owning this as our

  368. project, our home because this is the place, Lord, we're going

  369. to see families touched. This is the place where our

  370. families are going to be set free.

  371. I think a law of families going to grow in this house.

  372. Families going to be raised up in this house.

  373. Lord, there's leaders, there's business people, there's,

  374. there's musicians. Lord, there's great blessing and

  375. creative juices being brought up in this house.

  376. Lord, I thank you for the power of what you're going to do.

  377. And Lord, we praise you that we have the opportunity to step in

  378. and be part of what you're doing in Jesus name, Amen.

  379. Amen. I want to invite you all to

  380. stand back up with us as we continue to worship in this

  381. place. I just want to say thank you,

  382. Church, for being a house that presses.

  383. I want to say thank you for being a house that praises.

  384. I want to say thank you for being a house that shows up when

  385. you could be somewhere else. I want to say thank you for not

  386. giving up on the word of the Lord.

  387. I want to say thank you to all of you for pressing into what he

  388. has spoken and for not letting the discouragements of life.

  389. Keep. You from coming into his house,

  390. God is is restoring his bride. And this morning I just felt the

  391. father wanted to encourage you and say thank you as much as we

  392. thank him. He wanted to this morning to say

  393. thank you for showing up. Thank you for pressing, thank

  394. you for believing, thank you for contending, thank you for

  395. fighting on behalf of others. And so this morning it is the

  396. first Sunday of July, which is why I think we're more than

  397. halfway through the year. Is that right?

  398. Is this month 7 y'all God has been good in the first half and

  399. he is the God of glory to glory and face to face.

  400. So I know the latter 6 months holds more in store than the

  401. first six months. And so this morning, every first

  402. Sunday of the month, we share communion together as a body and

  403. the the fishy cracker represents Jesus's body who is broken for

  404. us so that we can walk in wholeness and it's it's a fish

  405. because he also calls us Fisher of men.

  406. So it's also a remembrance of our covenant with him, not just

  407. his side of the covenant, but our side in response to his

  408. finished work, that we will be a people that go and make

  409. disciples of all nations. And the Jews represents his

  410. blood that washed you. Queen, if you didn't know, I

  411. have good news for you that your sins have been remitted, that

  412. the past is behind you and you have permission and authority to

  413. leave what was behind you behind you once and for all and walk

  414. into the fullness of what God has for you.

  415. And so as we continue to worship and we sing this song, I want to

  416. invite you to come and share communion with us.

  417. You can come at any point. You can come with your family,

  418. your loved ones, come by yourself.

  419. You can take it out the altar, take it out your seat.

  420. We're not going to pause and do it all together, but we are

  421. going to do it together in this moment of worship, in

  422. remembrance of our King of Kings, the one who saved us, who

  423. delivered us, who has cleared our conscience of sin.

  424. Church, He is for you and not against you today.

  425. So I invite you, as we continue to worship, to come and take and

  426. remember the goodness of God in your life.

  427. There's a grace when the heart is under fire now, the way when

  428. the wall is closing in. When I look at the space between

  429. where I used to be in this reckoning, I know I will never

  430. be alone. There was another in the fire

  431. standing next to me. There was another in the war

  432. holding back the sea should I ever need a body of how I've

  433. been set free. There is a cross that bears the

  434. burning where another died for me.

  435. There was another in the fire. There was another in the fire.

  436. Oh, there was another in the fire.

  437. Oh, there was another in the fire.

  438. Oh, my dad, never dead at me, no longer a slave to my sin.

  439. Any war that's. Good news Should I fall in the

  440. space between what remains of me and the Shrek and me in the way

  441. I won't bow to the things of this world I know.

  442. Hey I. Know I will never be alone.

  443. There is another in the fire. Turn it back to me.

  444. There is another ring of waters holding back the sea.

  445. Should I? Ever be reminded?

  446. Will thou set me free? There is a train that holds

  447. nobody tower. Is it being there with another

  448. Ring of Fire? There is another in the fire

  449. there. Is another in the fire?

  450. See the night hit the darkness as the darkness bow to him.

  451. I can feel the roar hit the heavens and the space between

  452. western. I can feel the ground shaken me,

  453. the earth and the prison walls paving.

  454. No, this is between us. I can see the light.

  455. You see the light in the darkness, and the darkness falls

  456. to hell. I can kill.

  457. The roar in the heavens has the space between resting.

  458. I can feel the love shaping these ass has the bridge in the

  459. walls came in. Now there's in between.

  460. Now there's in between. Now there's in between.

  461. Now this, in between. Now this, in between.

  462. Now this in between, Now this in between, now this in between.

  463. And you shut the phrase. Now this is between, now this is

  464. between. But I can't say to see the light

  465. in the darkness and the darkness down to him.

  466. I can hear the road in the hand. There's a space between West.

  467. End. I can fill the ground, shaping

  468. me as the breeze. Been, won't he?

  469. Then now this in between us, Now this in between us.

  470. Thank you, Jesus, for setting me free.

  471. Poor There is no other name but the name that is Jesus.

  472. There is no other name but the name that is Jesus.

  473. Come on. There is no other name but the

  474. name that is Jesus. There's no other name.

  475. There is no other name but the name that is Jesus.

  476. No other name. There is no other name of the

  477. name that is Jesus. Oh, there's no other name.

  478. There is no other name of the name that is Jesus.

  479. There is no other name of the name that is Jesus.

  480. He was He who wanted to live and will be through it all.

  481. It's come what may in the space between all the things that see

  482. in this reckoning, I know I will never be alone.

  483. I know I will never be alone. There'll be another in the fire

  484. standing next to me. Be another in the waters holding

  485. back the sea should I ever need for my knee.

  486. Oh, I'll count the joy. Come, everybody.

  487. If I do this. Count the joy.

  488. Come, everybody. Come on.

  489. You'll never leave me. You'll never forsake me.

  490. You've died. And you and you live for me.

  491. The righteous are never forsaken.

  492. Hallelujah. Just give him your hand, give

  493. him a handcuff of praise right now, just in his face for what

  494. he's done. That he'll never leave us, never

  495. forsake us. And that's the promise in Jesus

  496. name, Amen. Amen.

  497. Amen. It is with great pleasure that

  498. we get to hear mighty Women, Women and men of God share the

  499. word today. You have a full course meal, not

  500. just one, not just two, not just three, but four people that have

  501. gone to the Lord on behalf of you to hear what He has for you

  502. today. And I know that there is a word

  503. in season if you open up your heart and perceive it.

  504. And so I pray that you have ears to hear and eyes to see today as

  505. the word is shared. And so I need you guys to help

  506. me give the biggest, warmest shout and welcome to our feet

  507. first speaker, which is teacher. Happy we love you girl.

  508. Speak the word today in Jesus name.

  509. Hey everybody, first of all, we are a House of honor at Love

  510. Quest and I want to give honor where honor is due and give

  511. thanks to Pastor Terrance and Pastor Julia for giving me the

  512. honor of this opportunity. You guys have loved me, you guys

  513. have equipped me, y'all have mobilized me, and you guys

  514. continue to serve me. You have lived out the vision in

  515. my life and I'm forever grateful for all that you continue to

  516. pour into me and into this house.

  517. And so may the Lord bless you, may He keep you, may his face

  518. shine upon you, may He be gracious towards you and may He

  519. give you an immense peace in Jesus name.

  520. Let's dive into this. Word.

  521. So I am Pastor Terence has been doing a series called Pop

  522. Culture and the pop is an acronym, which is a fancy way to

  523. say each letter stands for a word.

  524. And the pop that I'm going to dive into is he was talking

  525. about like the the pupil of praise or what our our vision

  526. can do to our praise. But my twist on it is the praise

  527. over perspective because our perspective matters and we're

  528. going to dive into Isaiah 43 today and see just how much it

  529. does matter. So Isaiah 43 verse one starts

  530. saying, but now in spite of past judgments for Israel's sins.

  531. Thus says the Lord who created you, O Jacob, and he who formed

  532. you, O Israel, fear not, fear not, for I have redeemed you and

  533. ransomed you by paying a price instead of.

  534. Leaving you. Captive.

  535. I've called you by name. By your name, you are mine.

  536. So First things first. There is a command, and the

  537. command is to fear not. And this command is absolutely

  538. key because fear is a filter that corrupts our vision.

  539. Fear is a filter that distorts our perspective.

  540. And if we are living with the glasses of fear on, then

  541. everything we absorb is laced with offense, is laced with with

  542. fear, is laced with bitterness, is laced with regret.

  543. It poisons our perspective because if we are trusting in

  544. fear, we're not trusting in God. It's the opposite, anytime

  545. you're not trusting in God, it's either the flesh which is

  546. subject to sin, AKA is the enemy.

  547. And that's not a good look for us as believers and it's not

  548. God's best for us, nor is it His intention for us.

  549. So it is essential before we move on to understand that fear

  550. is a perspective that you must break right now in the name of

  551. Jesus, so that you can see clearly and look full upon his

  552. wonderful face and in return see yourself through his eyes.

  553. Because also our perspective determines our praise.

  554. What comes out of our mouth is our praise, good or bad.

  555. And so if we come from a place of fear that causes us to

  556. release a poisonous praise and that corrupts a word that has

  557. gone forth, now God's Word will continue to go out and it will

  558. not return to Him void. But woe to us who have sullied

  559. the Word, who have rubbed our own little dirt on the word

  560. because of misunderstanding or fear or or not having clear

  561. vision of who we are in Christ. Because our life actually is

  562. also a testimony, our life in everything we do, we should live

  563. lifestyles of praise. And so our lifestyle actually

  564. helps us identify what we praise.

  565. Because what you praise isn't just a song you sing, it's what

  566. you meditate on. Our meditations are our worship.

  567. And so if we meditate on anything other than like

  568. Philippians 4 says anything good, pleasing, lovely,

  569. acceptable to God, if we meditate on anything other than

  570. that, it's actually meditations that lead to death.

  571. And our meditations, what we dwell on, what we think on what

  572. we run through our head is our worship.

  573. And So what that means is it's idol worship, a, it's empty, But

  574. also if anything, that if anything commands our thoughts

  575. and obtains our brains. You know, when you get that

  576. like, obsessive thought pattern and it's not good and it leads

  577. you kind of down this spiral, that is a plan of the enemy to

  578. keep you trapped. And what you end up doing is

  579. actually worshipping false realities, distorted

  580. perspectives. And you're worshipping idols

  581. because idols are a false reality.

  582. Idols are a distorted perspective of who God is.

  583. And So what we need to do is to set our minds on things above,

  584. not on things below. And when our minds are set on

  585. things above, we actually live out a lifestyle of worship,

  586. casting down all idols and fixing our eyes on the one who

  587. can abolish every fear. So fear not.

  588. Verse one also dives into this idea of being redeemed and

  589. ransomed. And all you need to know is to

  590. be redeemed is to be bought back.

  591. To be ransomed is if someone, if you're in prison and someone

  592. pays your ransom, that means your debt to society has been

  593. paid and you are now free to walk in the freedom you had

  594. before you were held captive. And so you have been bought

  595. back. Your ransom has been paid in

  596. full through the blood of Jesus so you can walk freely without

  597. fear in the authority that God has given you.

  598. We do not need to fear. We have been called by name and

  599. our freedom was purchased by the shedding of the blood of the

  600. Lamb. And what's beautiful about

  601. Isaiah is it's Old Testament. Jesus hasn't even come yet.

  602. He hasn't been born. The Angel hasn't even announced

  603. to Mary what's about to happen. Mary hasn't even been born yet.

  604. God generation after generation, there is no boundaries to His

  605. greatness. No eye has seen, ear has heard.

  606. He is not done yet. God is always in the process of

  607. working things together for His good.

  608. So regardless of what happened back, regardless of what's going

  609. to happen, as long as you stay submitted to God and keep your

  610. perspective aligned with His, your steps will become aligned

  611. with His and you will walk according to His plan and His

  612. purpose and you will see prophecy fulfilled.

  613. This was released by Isaiah hundreds of years before.

  614. Jesus was everything and Jesus birth, life, death,

  615. resurrection, ascension was the fulfillment of that prophecy and

  616. gives us the ability to fear not because we are redeemed.

  617. We have been ransomed and now we can walk in His name knowing we

  618. are called, we are chosen, a chosen people, a royal

  619. priesthood. Verse two says when you pass

  620. through the waters, I will be with you and through the rivers

  621. they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire,

  622. you will not be burned or scorched.

  623. No wood, the flame kindle upon you.

  624. And I love, love, love that because it's the song we just

  625. sang in the waters, the Red Sea. He's with us and he reminds us.

  626. He brings us into remembrance of that.

  627. There'll be another in the fire standing next to me.

  628. There'll be another in the waters holding back to the sea

  629. should I ever need reminding of the power that set me free.

  630. There is a cross that holds nobody, and that power lives in

  631. me. So that's the purpose of verse

  632. 3. Verse two is to remind you, the

  633. God who was still is, and the God who is, is to come.

  634. The same God that split the Red Sea is your God to split your

  635. Red Sea. The same God that saved and

  636. preserved Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

  637. He's there to preserve you from the fire, preserve you from the

  638. difficulties of life, preserve you from the heat that comes and

  639. tries to destroy. And you shall walk out, not even

  640. not burned, but without the stench of smoke, even in your

  641. hair. He will protect you.

  642. He did it before and he's doing it all again.

  643. Verse three to four says, For I am the Lord your God, the Holy

  644. One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt to the Babylonians

  645. for your ransom, and Ethiopia and Seva a province of Ethiopia

  646. in exchange for your release. Because you are precious in my

  647. sight and honored, and because I love you, I will give men in

  648. return for you, and peoples in exchange for your life.

  649. When I read this I was like, God, what the heck?

  650. What does that mean? What do you?

  651. Mean you'll give people in exchange for my life.

  652. I thought you like love the people and all this stuff.

  653. I was like, Lord give me understanding.

  654. And he said this. He said, Effie, pay attention.

  655. Egypt was Israel's enemy, enslaved them for 400 years.

  656. Then after that, Babylon came and again enslaved the people,

  657. held them captive. And So what God is saying is,

  658. look, Israel, I'm taking your enemies and I'm paying your

  659. ransom with them. I'm taking your enemies and I'm

  660. putting them in captivity of your enemies.

  661. And while your enemies turn against each other, they're too

  662. distracted to notice you're walking out.

  663. You're walking free. He is the God of all things.

  664. So regardless of your circumstances, regardless of

  665. your enemies, and what you feel is so impossible to overcome,

  666. know that my God works all things together for your good.

  667. And He will turn your enemies against each other so that you

  668. can walk in His freedom. Fear not, Fear not.

  669. He gave their enemies into the hands of their enemies as a

  670. ransom for their freedom. It's as simple as that.

  671. And He is fighting our battles by turning our enemies against

  672. each other, allowing us to go free.

  673. Can you say go free? Say go free.

  674. Amen. Verse five to seven says fear

  675. not. We get it again.

  676. Fear not. Look what I've done in the past.

  677. Fear not, for I am with you. I will bring your offspring from

  678. the east, gather you from the West.

  679. I will say to the north give up, and to the South keep not back.

  680. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the

  681. earth, and even everyone who is called by my name.

  682. For I have created, for my glory, whom I have formed, whom

  683. I have made. Sons and daughters are coming

  684. home. The word says it, and I believe

  685. this is a word for our house. Everything that has been spoken

  686. in this chapter, I believe God is speaking it over.

  687. Love quest. He says love quest.

  688. Fear not, we are not. Sons and daughters are coming

  689. home. I will turn your enemies against

  690. each other. Stay aligned with my path, my

  691. plan, my purpose, my word. Don't look to the left, Don't

  692. look to the right. Don't look back.

  693. I got you. I'm behind.

  694. Now walk forward. Sons and daughters are coming

  695. home. So we need to be obedient so we

  696. can create a house that can steward and cultivate God's

  697. children. Now verse 10, he says you are my

  698. witnesses, says the Lord, my servant whom I have chosen, that

  699. you may know me, believe me, remain steadfast to me and

  700. understand that I am he, period. I am he before me.

  701. There was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.

  702. And he just goes on to really big up himself, which he can do

  703. because he is God. But what's important for you to

  704. understand is that you are a witness and a witness is a

  705. person that sees an event take place.

  706. Understand you're a person that sees a person that encounters

  707. evidence and proof. And then I'll get to the third

  708. definition later because it's a little spoil, see but or no,

  709. I'll I'll hit there first. The third definition is a

  710. witness mark and this isn't it's art terminology, but essentially

  711. it's a line or a remnant of an original surface or work piece

  712. to show how much material has been removed or the shape of the

  713. original outline. Understand we are a new

  714. creation. The old has been removed and the

  715. new has come and every moment of transformation causes us to be a

  716. witness. It brings us closer to our

  717. original shape and form from before we were formed.

  718. Also, we are a remnant church. Love Quest is an Apostolic house

  719. and there is a quote from Crowned and I encourage you get

  720. the book and read page 34 and 35.

  721. But there's a quote from page 34 that says the apostle is

  722. anointed to call together the remnant, the body of

  723. breakthrough believers set apart for God's purpose and the new

  724. era he calls his church into. We are that body, Love Quest.

  725. We are a remnant church all to do a new work and advance the

  726. Kingdom of heaven. But what I really want to dive

  727. into real quick is verse 18 and 19, specifically 19.

  728. It says, behold, I am doing a new thing now it springs forth.

  729. Do you not perceive it and know it and will you not give heed to

  730. it? I will make a way in the

  731. wilderness and rivers, in the dead, in the desert.

  732. What you need to know is this. God is doing something brand new

  733. in your life. This is the season to start

  734. looking for what you've never seen before.

  735. You can't determine what God is doing based on the bad you are

  736. experiencing. God is trying to expose your

  737. negative perspective and open your eyes so that you can see

  738. because your perspective determines your perception and

  739. perception takes dependence. Perception takes focus and

  740. vision and that focus and vision needs to be on God and God

  741. alone. So fear not, your God is with

  742. you and he is doing a new thing. Say I'm a new creation and my

  743. God is doing a new thing in Jesus name.

  744. Please help me welcome up Pastor Daniela Tapesta.

  745. Amen, Amen. Powerful word as always.

  746. I just want to bring a little bit of clarity when we're

  747. calling Teacher Effie. Teacher Effie, it's not just

  748. like a fun thing. She is an ordained teacher in

  749. this house and teachers are part of the fivefold ministry gifting

  750. and they're mantle their crown. Their call is to extrapolate, to

  751. expound, to bring clarity, to help teach the word of God as

  752. they rightfully divide it. So thank you for that.

  753. Pastor Terrance and Pastor Julia, you show me constantly

  754. what it is like to carry the heart of the Father, to to walk

  755. alongside someone through their good, the bad and the ugly.

  756. And it is a privilege that you continue to see something in me

  757. that is for this house and this particular moment in due season.

  758. So thank you. I love you, and I pray your time

  759. right now is super restful and restorative to you and your

  760. family. I want you to turn to your

  761. neighbor and say this, Say I fear not because he is doing a

  762. new thing and that new thing is me evolving.

  763. Yes, it is. Oh yeah, sure.

  764. Yes, evolve, activating the new you.

  765. That is the topic for my section.

  766. Your evolvement is dependent on your involvement.

  767. So evolve or evolution is a verb.

  768. It's something that is in action.

  769. It is happening, whether you participate in it or not, that

  770. the Lord desires for you to participate and have an active

  771. engagement in your evolution. And this is different than

  772. revolution. So revolution is just like a

  773. cyclical pattern or cyclical habit.

  774. So I liken it to riding a bike. When you're on a stationary

  775. bike, such as in a spin class, the RPMS, revolutions per minute

  776. is the amount of speed with which the revolution goes from

  777. the top all the way to the bottom and back again.

  778. But you're stationary, you're not moving anywhere.

  779. So revolution is kind of just going nowhere anytime soon,

  780. whereas evolution is always in forward motion.

  781. So I liken that to being an outdoor bike ride experience

  782. where you have a destination and your goal is to get there though

  783. forward moving. Your evolution is actually

  784. innately an inverse relationship with yourself that never ends,

  785. and it is in partnership with he who began a good work into you,

  786. and we'll see it into completion.

  787. And so we want to make sure that there's a distinction between

  788. evolution and your revolution. You are moving forward, and you

  789. need to engage in that actively. That's what the Lord desires.

  790. Pastor Terence mentioned metamorphosis, which is the

  791. evolution of a butterfly, as an example of this.

  792. It started from egg to larvae to pupa and to the adult.

  793. And it's important because the butterfly had everything in it

  794. for life and godliness to become a butterfly from inception.

  795. And we see that we have the same thing in Second Peter, one, for

  796. his divine power has bestowed upon us absolutely everything

  797. necessary for a dynamic spiritual life and godliness

  798. through the true and personal knowledge of him.

  799. So that's really important. Your evolution is dependent on

  800. your knowledge of him because when you take your eyes off of

  801. yourself and you seek him, then you find him and you find

  802. yourself. So it's you will be in a

  803. revolution, you'll be revolving if you keep your eyes fixed on

  804. you. But your evolution can happen

  805. and can happen quickly when you keep your eyes fixed on him.

  806. Your involvement of your evolvement is already in you.

  807. Just tap into it family. Pastor Tamron said this a bit

  808. ago and it it still resonates with me.

  809. You are a meaningful specific. You are not a wandering

  810. generality. And we see that all throughout

  811. the Bible, but particularly in Jeremiah where it says before I

  812. formed you in the womb, I knew, KNEW and approved of you as my

  813. chosen instrument. And before you were born, I set

  814. separate you, set you apart. I consecrated you and I pointed

  815. you as a prophet to the nation's and the word that stands out for

  816. me in this scripture is the before.

  817. So if the scripture had just said, well, I formed you in the

  818. womb and I approved of you and set you apart and I consecrated

  819. you and I appointed you to prophet of the nations, that

  820. would be great. This scripture says before all

  821. of that, this happened before all of that, which means that

  822. everything that you need in you is already everything that you

  823. need is already in you. Pardon me, That is what I'm

  824. trying to say. You are a meaningful specific.

  825. He knew you before he formed you.

  826. He knews all. He knew all the numbers, the

  827. numbering, the hairs of your head.

  828. It is hot, y'all. Jeremiah 112 says that he also

  829. watches over the word. So he formed you in the room.

  830. He knew you. He put His word in you and he's

  831. making sure that it comes to pass by watching over it.

  832. Your new you is a garden reality.

  833. Thank you, thank you. We were created for covenantial

  834. community. Genesis 9 says this.

  835. Behold, I establish my covenant or pledge with you and your

  836. descendants after you. So this is for all of the people

  837. way back in Genesis, and it's for us now because this is

  838. there. The covenant was established and

  839. we are the descendants after you.

  840. OK, keep going. And God said this is the token

  841. of the covenant, the Solomon pledge, the solemn pledge, which

  842. I am making between me and you and every living creature that

  843. is within you for all future generations.

  844. Say that's me. And then he puts a rainbow on

  845. the cloud, and he says this is a sign of my covenant with you.

  846. So every time you see a rainbow, you can be reminded of the

  847. Lord's established covenant with you, that he will never leave

  848. you nor forsake you, but desires you to evolve back into his

  849. image and his likeness. We're going to actually skip

  850. ahead. Romans 8 says this, for those

  851. whom he foreknew, of whom? The one before that. 29 There

  852. you go. For those whom he foreknew, of

  853. whom he was aware and loved beforehand, He destined from the

  854. beginning for ordained them to be molded into the image of His

  855. Son, and share inwardly his likeness, that he may become the

  856. first born among many brethren. And those whom he foreordained

  857. He also called. And those he called he

  858. justified, And those he justified He glorified them,

  859. raising them to a heavenly dignity and condition or state

  860. of being. Those are heavenly realities.

  861. That is your garden reality. The new you has a promise to

  862. prosper you in every season. Genesis 1.

  863. And that's the next slide, yes. Then God said I give you every

  864. seed bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every

  865. tree that has fruit with seed in it, and they will be yours for

  866. food. OK, here He says, I give you

  867. every seed bearing plant. Seed bearing plant.

  868. He doesn't say I just give you every plant and it may or may

  869. not produce, and I don't know. It's going to depend on how you

  870. steward it. He says, I give you every seed

  871. bearing plant on the face of the whole earth.

  872. All we need to do is partner with the Lord.

  873. It's already done. Our our evolution has already

  874. happened. It's just us that needs to

  875. participate in it. So you go, OK, so how do we do

  876. that? How do we activate the new, the

  877. KNEWU? The first thing you do is you

  878. use your faith because it works because of faith.

  879. It's one of my favorite people in the Bible because of faith.

  880. Enoch was caught up and transferred to heaven, so he

  881. didn't even have a glimpse of death.

  882. That boy just walked with the Lord and then he was no more.

  883. And it's beautiful because that is a garden reality.

  884. That is a heaven reality that the Lord wishes us to have here

  885. on earth. It's just this continual

  886. communion, this covenantial communion with the Lord where we

  887. just exist with Him and that can be our reality.

  888. Pastor Tim has recently said faith doesn't require certainty,

  889. just belief in the Word. So you may not be there yet in

  890. seeing yourself in His image and His likeness fully the full

  891. KNEWU that the Lord desires you to be, but you can just have

  892. faith for it. You don't have to have the

  893. certainty of it. Just believe in it, in the Word

  894. that was spoken over you, until you see it manifest.

  895. The 2nd way that we can activate that is to kill sin and feed

  896. sonship. Who told you that?

  897. Who told you you weren't enough? What are these voices in your

  898. head that you're listening to that is telling you you're

  899. incompetent? You're unworthy that there's

  900. always someone better or or better suited or better

  901. character or more popular than you that is not of God.

  902. And you need to kill the voices in your head and feed your

  903. sonship, which is the Word of God.

  904. That's how you get to know who you are when you seek Him.

  905. First you lay your life down, you get into the Word, you find

  906. yourself in the Word, and then you prophecy over yourself by

  907. speaking that over yourself until you believe it.

  908. Matthew 10 says whoever finds his lower life will lose it the

  909. higher life, and whoever loses his lower life on my account

  910. will find it, which is the higher life.

  911. You need to guard your garden reality because you reflect what

  912. you look at. Where have you been looking for

  913. you? Where are you looking for you?

  914. Are you looking in movies? Are you looking for yourself in

  915. social media as you scroll? Where are you looking for you?

  916. Because if you're looking anywhere than what it says in

  917. the Bible, you won't find yourself.

  918. Or you'll find a manipulated, distorted perspective, a

  919. perversion of yourself, and that's exactly what the enemy

  920. want. So what you need to do to guard

  921. your garden reality is change the ecosystem of your mind,

  922. renewed your mind daily, change the thought patterns, protect

  923. your portals from perversion. We often think of that as

  924. profane music and things like that.

  925. And that's true, but it's also perversion of the word of God

  926. and pervert and perversion of your perspective.

  927. Because if the enemy can get your perspective perverted then

  928. it doesn't matter what kind of music you listen to, you're

  929. never going to see it with the mind of Christ.

  930. You could be listening to worship music and and it not

  931. taking root in your heart. Your evolution is happening and

  932. it has happened. Your evolution is happening and

  933. it has happened. It's in the past.

  934. We just worshipped about a same God who did it before past

  935. happened and he's doing it again happening.

  936. It's a verb. So it's this constant evolution.

  937. You have to see the changes in your life as alterations, not

  938. adjustments. If you go to a seamstress to

  939. have a blazer or a dress adjusted, it's not a temporary

  940. thing. They cut the fabric, they re

  941. stitch it or surge it, whatever they do move it through the

  942. machine and then it becomes a permanently fixed thing.

  943. And that is what God desires with your evolution.

  944. He wants you to keep moving forward, walking with him so

  945. that what happens takes what takes place is an alteration and

  946. not just an adjustment in your life where you're looking back

  947. and you're going, Oh yeah, this is actually, this is where I

  948. want to be. God's like, no, no, no, no, no,

  949. we're closing that off. It has ended.

  950. And now you're permanently a new you.

  951. And here's the cool thing. Here's the cool thing.

  952. Every day you wake up, his mercies are new.

  953. So every day you wake up, you have a new you KNEWUNEWU to

  954. experience, to explore and to live out if you just allow

  955. yourself to partnership with your own evolution.

  956. And this family is how you live under an open heaven, by having

  957. confidence in yourself, friendship.

  958. So when you're doing all the things that we just talked

  959. about, that's how you get to know yourself most because

  960. you're first getting to know the Lord and there's direct access

  961. there. Keep your eyes fixed on him.

  962. Why do we need to do this? Pastor Francis said recently.

  963. Everything that God made for you only knows the new you, the

  964. KNEWU. So there are heavenly realities

  965. that are only unlocked and reveal to you through your

  966. KNEWU. So your evolution is imminent,

  967. your evolution is going to happen, but how much more

  968. beautiful, how much more sweet will it be if you partner with

  969. the Lord to get there faster, to experience heaven here on earth,

  970. to live under an open heaven and unlock all of the beautiful

  971. heavenly realities that the Lord has for you.

  972. How does that sound? Yes, Amen.

  973. So please stand up. Let's just we'll pray this out.

  974. Father, we thank you for the revelation of the KNEW us.

  975. We thank you Lord, that you are doing a new thing.

  976. We do behold it. We do perceive it.

  977. We do put on our new nature every day.

  978. We are a new creation. We thank you, Lord.

  979. We thank you Laura that though we have evolved, we are still

  980. evolving. We thank you for this in Jesus

  981. sovereign name, Amen. I want to welcome up another

  982. anointed teacher who is ordained as a teacher in this house who

  983. just blows my mind with her revelation and her ability again

  984. to to explore and expound and explain the Word of God so that

  985. we get to profit and benefit from it.

  986. Amen. Please welcome Grace Rose Sway.

  987. Thank you, thank you. You all can take your seats.

  988. How we doing, How we doing? We doing well, we doing good.

  989. Need to take a second stretch a little bit get get loosened up.

  990. So as Pastor Daniela said, my name is Grace.

  991. Many of you may know me playing keys and being a part of our

  992. worship team, but like she said, I'm also an ordained teacher of

  993. this house. And what's so beautiful is that

  994. the first time I ever preached the sermon is around this time a

  995. couple of years ago. And since that moment, I have

  996. been set in this house as a teacher.

  997. And that can only happen because I've been under leadership that

  998. has seen me, I've been under leadership that has challenged

  999. me, that has called me into a deeper and greater evolution and

  1000. has called me to be the fullness of who God has meant for me to

  1001. be. And so again, as a part of

  1002. establishing that culture of honor, Pastor Terence and Pastor

  1003. Julia, I thank you. I honor you.

  1004. You have changed my life in more ways than I can imagine.

  1005. Thank you for seeing me. But ultimately, thank you for

  1006. empowering me to be and live in a Maggio day.

  1007. The image and likeness of God and the fullness of who I am.

  1008. So I thank you and I honor you to our elders.

  1009. Yes, you are my parents, but spiritually in this home, you

  1010. are a two people that hold up our arms.

  1011. And so I'm grateful for you. I am thankful for you.

  1012. And that's, that's that I love you all very much.

  1013. So I'm going to talk to us a little bit about a word that the

  1014. Holy Spirit released into our house a couple of weeks ago.

  1015. And what's really fun is that as a teacher, it's important for us

  1016. to identify what gift is speaking.

  1017. And so part of my gifting and my call is to help ground us in the

  1018. word is to help provide context for what God is doing and

  1019. speaking. And what's so beautiful is that

  1020. I have a unique ability as gifted by God to be able to see

  1021. and hear what he's saying in the spirit realm.

  1022. But also connected to what's happening in the natural.

  1023. And so I'm going to talk from this topic called the App Store.

  1024. OK, so I'm a graphic designer as well, and I'm a little bit of a

  1025. nerd and I love pop culture history.

  1026. So you can see here, this is the vintage Apple logo from like the

  1027. late 80s, mid late 80s. And when I found the exact font

  1028. as well. And so this is going to be an

  1029. opportunity where I'm going to take a prophetic word that was

  1030. released to the house and give us some insight into how we can

  1031. go from hearing the word to applying it in our everyday

  1032. life. And so it's important for us to

  1033. know what gift is speaking, so then you can know how to hear

  1034. properly, right? If a pastoral gift is speaking,

  1035. the pastoral is going to invite us into this beautiful moment of

  1036. being seen and heard and loved and cared for.

  1037. And we need pastors. But then an Apostolic anointing

  1038. is the one that makes us a little uncomfortable and calls

  1039. us forward. So for me, as I said, as a

  1040. teacher, my gift is to ground our understanding and bring

  1041. revelation to our knowledge. And so if you want to learn a

  1042. little bit more about that, like Effie said, please go buy a copy

  1043. of Pastor Terrance. It's his book, crowned it.

  1044. The revelation that's in that book has changed my life for the

  1045. greater. So Isaiah 43 verse 19.

    Isaiah 43:19

  1046. And we've and we've talked about this a little bit and that's how

  1047. you know, the Holy Spirit is really trying to get our

  1048. attention. He says, behold, I am doing a

  1049. new thing now. It springs forth.

  1050. Do you not perceive and know it? And will you not give heed to

  1051. it? I will even make a way in the

  1052. wilderness and rivers in the desert.

  1053. Mark 2. Is where you see Jesus talking

  1054. and sharing with his disciples about evolution and growing and

  1055. evolving as we've learned a little bit about here.

  1056. So in verse 21 it says no one sews a patch of unshrunken new

  1057. goods on an old garment. And if he does, the patch tears

  1058. away from it, the new from the old and the rent or the tear

  1059. becomes bigger and worse than it was before.

  1060. And no one puts new wine into old wine skins.

  1061. And if he does, the wine will burst the skins and the wine is

  1062. lost and the bottles destroyed. But new wine is to be put in

  1063. fresh wineskins. And this is important because

  1064. the word that was released to our house speaks a lot to

  1065. innovation, to evolving, to seeing the new thing.

  1066. And so it was on June 19th, just a few weeks ago, the Holy

  1067. Spirit, through our man of God, Pastor Terence, told us that

  1068. this next wave of revival will be the apple of this generation.

  1069. The Holy Spirit revealed to us that what apple has done to our

  1070. generation, God is going to do in the church.

  1071. It's a new and innovative move and the culture will have no

  1072. choice but to embrace this revival.

  1073. So why does this matter, right? Why is this important?

  1074. What I believe is happening is that God is giving us an earthly

  1075. model to ground our faith for this next move of God.

  1076. So as God is releasing words, it's going to be very easy to

  1077. kind of get lost and try to OK, Amen, whoo Hallelujah.

  1078. But what does that mean and look like impracticum, What does that

  1079. look like in my everyday to day life?

  1080. So I believe God is giving us this earthly model to ground our

  1081. faith. And as we were challenged to

  1082. understand through our Faith that Work series that happens on

  1083. Wednesdays at our Wonder Wednesday experience, faith

  1084. requires a testimony, and that testimony helps to ground us.

  1085. So if God has told us that this next wave of revival is going to

  1086. be like the Apple of our generation, what's the testimony

  1087. of Apple? So here's a little bit of a

  1088. history behind Apple. I won't nerd out too much, but

  1089. it was created in 1976 by two gentlemen named Steve Jobs and

  1090. Steve Wozniak. And these two gentlemen carried

  1091. two different unique purposes. OK, Steve Wozniak, his nickname

  1092. on online is was he was the hardware guy.

  1093. So he built the actual computing systems.

  1094. Steve Jobs, he was the creative, he was the innovator.

  1095. He was the one that took what the hardware that Wozniak had

  1096. created and made it applicable, made it approachable for the

  1097. lame man. Wozniak left the company in 1985

  1098. and Jobs became the lead. And this is what's so

  1099. interesting to me. Apple did not turn a profit

  1100. until 1997. So they had been in business for

  1101. over 20 years, but they didn't actually turn a profit until

  1102. 1997. And we'll get into why that

  1103. happened. And the key thing that shifted

  1104. was that it made personal computing accessible to the

  1105. layman. And what's really important is

  1106. the fact that Apple started in a garage in California.

  1107. Amazon started in a garage in California.

  1108. Last I checked, this is a garage in Surrey, BC.

  1109. So what can God do out of a garage, right?

  1110. That's so important for us to hold on to.

  1111. So there were some key developments that happened over

  1112. the course of the company. The IMAP was created in 1998,

  1113. the iPod in 2001. Who here had an iPod?

  1114. I love my iPod. I had a little iPod shuffle.

  1115. I thought I was that girl. And then the iPhone came out in

  1116. 2007. And what's so interesting is

  1117. Apple have been working on the iPhone secretly since 2002, but

  1118. it didn't come to fruition until 2007.

  1119. So sometimes God will give you insight, God will give you

  1120. wisdom that will change the world.

  1121. But we have a responsibility to steward it.

  1122. And each of these products revolutionize the way we as

  1123. people interact with technology. So with that testimony grounding

  1124. our faith, what does that mean for Love Quest?

  1125. I believe that God is going to use our community to be a model

  1126. of innovation for the church, Not just our church, but the

  1127. Capital C church. How are we doing that?

  1128. Well, let's talk about our worship team for a quick second.

  1129. Now, I might be biased because I serve on a worship team, but I

  1130. don't know a lot of worship teams that worship the way we

  1131. do. I don't know a lot of churches

  1132. that know how to contend for the Capital C church.

  1133. I don't know a lot of churches that know how to blend rock, hip

  1134. hop, gospel in a way that reveals the tapestry and the

  1135. fullness of who God is. So that is an area we're

  1136. innovating. We have ministries like The Good

  1137. Life that care for your physical being, right?

  1138. It's not. Yes, we care for your soul and

  1139. that is important. But having ministries that are

  1140. there to care for our practical needs and give us wisdom, that's

  1141. a part of that innovation #2 I believe our creativity will

  1142. distinguish us in the landscape of churches and in the

  1143. marketplace. So one of the big things about

  1144. Apple is the products began to infiltrate pop culture, right?

  1145. So if you've seen the movie Legally Blonde, it's one of my

  1146. favorite movies. There's a scene in the movie

  1147. where she's in law school. She's this, you know, kind of

  1148. stereotypical blonde girl. You know, everything is pink and

  1149. fun and all that kind of fun stuff.

  1150. But she starts going to Harvard Law School, and there's a

  1151. pivotal moment in the film where you begin to see her learning

  1152. how to be fully who God has made her to be.

  1153. But in this context, that might kind of like be super foreign to

  1154. her. And so she's in line at the

  1155. school store and she's buying an I book.

  1156. And this is a laptop that Apple created early 2000s.

  1157. And it was orange and white. And it stood out amongst all the

  1158. kind of more Gray, kind of more utilitarian looking laptops

  1159. being like the more like kind of practical stuff, right?

  1160. And so her creativity caused her to be distinguished in that

  1161. space. Why?

  1162. Because of that device, what that device signified.

  1163. And so I believe that the creativity that's in this house

  1164. is what's going to distinguish us within the landscape of

  1165. churches. Again, we see it with our

  1166. worship team. We see it with our pastor.

  1167. If you don't know, our pastor is a fire hip hop artist.

  1168. And the music is great. You can find it on Spotify, find

  1169. it on iTunes, wherever you listen to your music.

  1170. But that's a part of what distinguishes us and makes us

  1171. unique. And so that's going to give us

  1172. insight and access to the marketplace.

  1173. We can take the music that God has given us that's clean, it's

  1174. fun, it's accessible for the whole family.

  1175. But because the music is banging and because we honor where God

  1176. is doing in our man of God, we can then go into nightclubs and

  1177. infiltrate those spaces with the love of God.

  1178. We'll have intercessors in the room praying and cover us.

  1179. We'll be kind to the bartenders, we'll be kind to the managers to

  1180. the point where they call us and say, hey, y'all want to come

  1181. back? Because when you guys come

  1182. through, everybody is kind. They love well, they tip us

  1183. well, and it's that creativity that creates distinction in US.

  1184. But even greater than that, I believe that our prayer will be

  1185. an incubator of this innovation. So as I said earlier, the iPhone

  1186. had been in development since 2002, right?

  1187. It didn't come to pass until 2007, and it was called Project

  1188. Purple. And it was this very secretive

  1189. project that was being developed and worked on and labored.

  1190. And I believe and I know that prayer is one of the ways we can

  1191. remain tethered to the Spirit. And Steve Jobs, as the oversight

  1192. would come in and give insight and give wisdom over the course

  1193. of the evolution of this product.

  1194. And originally they were focusing on creating a device

  1195. that would blend certain elements of a phone, but it

  1196. really wasn't focused on being a phone.

  1197. But it wasn't until Steve Jobs came in and said, Hey, I think

  1198. think we actually need to pivot and make make some sort of phone

  1199. device that changed the world. It changed the world.

  1200. And so that incubation of innovation and creativity became

  1201. this place where world changing technology was birthed.

  1202. And I know and I believe and I'm a product of what happens when

  1203. you pray and when you intercede and you allow the Spirit to help

  1204. you give birth to what's inside of you.

  1205. But even beyond this, what does this mean for us as individuals?

  1206. If that's what God doing in our church, what does it mean for us

  1207. as individuals? Number one, we get to be the

  1208. first adapters of this movement. So when the iPhone came out in

  1209. 2007, one of the big things that they did is they gave an iPhone

  1210. to every single Apple employee that had been there for, I

  1211. believe a minimum of a year. So these millions of people got

  1212. to be the first people to have their hands on this world

  1213. changing technology. They didn't necessarily know the

  1214. fullest extent of what they had been given, but they had an

  1215. opportunity to steward it. And so I believe that for us

  1216. here that are a part of this community, we have the privilege

  1217. of being the first adapters of this new wave of revival that

  1218. God is getting ready to release across this nation.

  1219. We have the opportunity to be the first ones that get to kind

  1220. of play with it and navigate it and figure out what does it look

  1221. like for this revival to be continued and carried beyond the

  1222. four walls of this church. I also, I also believe that if

  1223. we're a part of an innovative house, that there is a release

  1224. for innovation in all areas of our lives.

  1225. And I know that word innovation, I've used it a lot, but what is

  1226. innovation? It's a combination of creativity

  1227. and application. So innovation means I'm taking

  1228. something that exists, but I'm taking it and pushing it

  1229. further. I'm giving it an opportunity to

  1230. evolve into something beyond what I see here naturally.

  1231. And it's done in that incubation of prayer.

  1232. And so, Andy, if you're a business owner, if you're a mom,

  1233. if you're a student, wherever you are, there's a release for

  1234. innovation that's available to you.

  1235. Being tethered to this house that can affect all areas of our

  1236. lives. Yet most importantly, we are the

  1237. culture carriers of revival. So back 2008, how many of you

  1238. guys remember those advertisements for iPods?

  1239. It was like the black silhouettes and they would be

  1240. dancing on screen and have the white wired headphones.

  1241. You guys remember those? Remember those, right?

  1242. How many of you in here have an iPhone?

  1243. Who has an iPhone? Anybody have an iPhone?

  1244. Anybody have a Mac computer, some sort of Apple device?

  1245. Again, it's not a conversation on what's better, what's worse,

  1246. But everybody in here at some point has been impacted by

  1247. Apple. It's been impacted by this

  1248. culture shifting organization that has changed the way we

  1249. connect with one another. My grandfather, may he rest in

  1250. peace. He was born in the early 1920s.

  1251. And I remember one time I was Facetiming my mom on my iPhone

  1252. and he looked at me and he said, what's that in your hand?

  1253. I was like, what's my phone? And he goes, that's a phone.

  1254. I say, yeah, so, but you can see your mom on it.

  1255. I said, uh huh. He said, I never thought I'd see

  1256. that in my lifetime. So over the course of his life,

  1257. he lived until his early 80s, he went from radio to having a

  1258. device that was in his granddaughter's hand.

  1259. That enabled me to not just stay connected with the world, but it

  1260. enables me to see across the world.

  1261. That's something that that carries culture.

  1262. And so for us as a community, we have the privilege of stewarding

  1263. and carrying what it means to be and live in a state of revival

  1264. because revival is not limited to the four walls of the church.

  1265. What would happen if, like an iPhone, we were able to

  1266. drastically shift the way people communicate?

  1267. What if, like Apple, we were able to change the way people

  1268. stay connected to one another? What if, what if, what if, like

  1269. Apple, we were able to change the course of communication and

  1270. technology like never before and leave a lasting legacy that

  1271. outlives us. Steve Jobs has gone, but his

  1272. legacy is right here in front of us.

  1273. His legacy is in your pocket. His legacy is living wherever he

  1274. is impacted. So I encourage us, Love Quest,

  1275. as God has released to us that this next wave of revival is

  1276. going to be the apple of our generation.

  1277. I encourage you and I implore you to realize that there is

  1278. world changing innovation inside of you.

  1279. I implore you, love Quest to realize that what God is getting

  1280. ready to do, it's going to change generations.

  1281. I am for you and encourage you. Do not be afraid of your

  1282. greatness, Do not be afraid of the bigness and of the vastness

  1283. that God has placed inside of you.

  1284. Because you and I, we are going to change the world, starting

  1285. with the world around us in Jesus name, Amen.

  1286. And now I get to call up a dear friend, Mr. Brett Rodway.

  1287. Well, good afternoon. Who is glad that summer has

  1288. arrived in Vancouver? Yes.

  1289. So look, if you are looking for a little bit of light relief, we

  1290. have some water. Just put your hand up, we'll get

  1291. you some water. Make sure that you're well

  1292. hydrated. We got a lot to speak about.

  1293. God is doing great things. I want to take this opportunity

  1294. to say thank you to Pastor Terrance and Pastor Julia.

  1295. Thank you for the honour of this opportunity to speak from this

  1296. platform. The Lord has given you the

  1297. responsibility for this platform, for this people, for

  1298. this church. And I want to thank you for the

  1299. opportunity to be able to share the word today.

  1300. So I'm going to speak from the word evolve and you're like, we

  1301. heard that message already. OK, mine's a bit different, so

  1302. keep listening. We've got more to say on that

  1303. subject. Jeremiah chapter one and verse

  1304. five says before I formed you in the womb, I knew and approved of

  1305. you as my chosen instrument. And before you were born I

  1306. separated and set you apart, consecrating you, and I

  1307. appointed you as a prophet to the nations.

  1308. You know there's a power in knowing that God knew me.

  1309. He knew me before I was formed in the womb.

  1310. He knew me. Nothing's a surprise.

  1311. He knew you. He knew who you were, who you

  1312. would be and how he wanted to impact your life.

  1313. He knew and approved you. There's a power and approval, a

  1314. stamp of approval, a stamp that says, Yep, that's good, I

  1315. approve. In the US, they've got that

  1316. election and there'll be people who say I approve of this

  1317. message. It is a sign that says, yes, I'm

  1318. connected to this. Well, God says I'm connected to

  1319. you. I knew you, I approve you.

  1320. Well, I walk a little taller. I get a little bit excited to

  1321. know the God of heaven and earth.

  1322. He is the one who knew me and has approved of me.

  1323. Jesus speaks into this to Nicodemus in John chapter 3 and

    John 3 chapter mention

  1324. verse 3. Jesus said you're absolutely

  1325. right. Take it from me, unless a person

  1326. is born from above, it's not possible to see what I'm

  1327. pointing to to God's Kingdom. You see you're born.

  1328. You are to be born from above. When you believe on Jesus, you

  1329. are born and you born again, born from above, Nicodemus says.

  1330. How can anyone be born who has already been born and grown up?

  1331. You can't re enter your mother's womb and be born again.

  1332. What are you saying with this born from above talk?

  1333. It makes sense. How's it possible I've been

  1334. born? How do I?

  1335. This doesn't make sense. I can't go back to my mum.

  1336. I'm way too tall. I'm taller than her now.

  1337. That doesn't make sense. How could I be born again?

  1338. This is weird talk. It's Kingdom talk.

  1339. The natural man can't understand it be born again.

  1340. This makes no sense. Jesus said you're not listening.

  1341. Let me say it again. Unless a person submits to this

  1342. original creation, the wind hovering over the water,

  1343. creation that speaks to Genesis chapter one, when the Holy

  1344. Spirit was hovering over the deep, the invisible moving, the

  1345. visible, a baptism into a new life, it's not possible to enter

  1346. God's Kingdom. When you look at a baby, it's

  1347. just that, a body. You can look at it and touch,

  1348. but the person who takes shape with it is formed by something

  1349. you can't see and touch the Spirit and becomes a living

  1350. spirit. Another translation says that

  1351. which is of flesh is flesh, but that which is the spirit is

  1352. spirit. We're born of the Spirit.

  1353. We who receive Christ. We are reborn.

  1354. Men and women reborn of the Spirit of God.

  1355. It's different. And those who are reborn now,

  1356. all of a sudden the old ways feels weird.

  1357. Those old habits, they feel weird because I'm born again.

  1358. I'm born in the Spirit. I'm born into the Kingdom of

  1359. God. There's something different.

  1360. So we who believe have been reborn in the spirit or from

  1361. above, born now to the new KNEW person from heaven.

  1362. This was what Jesus came for, so that we might know him and in

  1363. knowing him be transformed into these people who are no God,

  1364. these citizens of the Kingdom of God.

  1365. This is who we are, reborn, spirit born people.

  1366. We are those who have been grafted into Jesus Christ.

  1367. We are a new creation. Old things have passed away.

  1368. Behold, all things have become new, it says in Two Corinthians

  1369. 517. When we're in Christ,

  1370. everything's new. The old's passed away.

  1371. It's gone. Don't cling to it.

  1372. It's gone. Then hold on to that.

  1373. It's gone. That old way of doing life.

  1374. It's gone. It's done with.

  1375. We're now stepping into the new. We're walking out as new

  1376. creations, new people, new expectations, new ways of

  1377. thinking, new ways of speaking, new ways of responding, new ways

  1378. of seeing. It's new now.

  1379. Pastor Daniela spoke about the, the life of a butterfly coming

  1380. from the egg and the lava. And then there's the, the

  1381. Caterpillar, the, the cocoon and then the butterfly.

  1382. And Can you imagine this? You're going from a Caterpillar

  1383. kind of munching away on, on, on, on the crunchy leaves.

  1384. You're growing fat, you're getting ready to go.

  1385. You get in that cocoon. You spend all that time in this

  1386. cocoon not knowing what's going to happen at the end, and then

  1387. you come out of butterfly, beautiful coloured wings,

  1388. completely different body, longer legs, a different diet

  1389. like you like different foods. Imagine that you picture it.

  1390. All these colours in your wings, Yellow, orange, blue-green, all

  1391. those things. And then you're out of the

  1392. cocoon. You drop down to the next branch

  1393. and you continue eating leaves and pretending you're a

  1394. Caterpillar. There's a disconnect.

  1395. You've been transformed. You're not supposed to live that

  1396. way anymore. There's a new revelation needed

  1397. You. You're not supposed to be eating

  1398. the leaves. You.

  1399. You eat nectar and sweet things now.

  1400. Your body shape different. You try walking on that branch

  1401. and those big wings on your back.

  1402. A gust of wind comes and you're knocked off.

  1403. You're not built for that. You're built to fly.

  1404. You're built different. It's like a believer going back

  1405. to old ways. You're built different now,

  1406. you're built to live life different.

  1407. You're built to think different, walk different.

  1408. But people will think I'm different, yes, that's the

  1409. point. But people will say you don't,

  1410. you don't react the same way you used to.

  1411. That's the point. You're different.

  1412. You got wings now, you got different diet, a different

  1413. flavour. The things that used to be good

  1414. to you are no longer good. Those old desires, they're

  1415. falling away. They're meant to because the new

  1416. desire that God place in your hearts, that's the new man, the

  1417. Spirit empowered you. Old things have passed away.

  1418. Old things have become new. Pastor Terence has also spoken

  1419. recently about alteration, not merely adjustments, and that's

  1420. what we're talking about here. We're talking about an

  1421. alteration, a new way of living, a new way of seeing, a new way

  1422. of doing. But how do we get there because

  1423. there's so many things that want to draw us back to that old way.

  1424. How do we shift? How do we move?

  1425. How can we bring step into the promises of God, step into that

  1426. new life? Romans chapter 12 and verse two

    Romans 12 chapter mention

  1427. and the amplified classic says do not be conformed to this

  1428. world, fashioned after and adapted to its external

  1429. superficial customs, but be transformed by the entire

  1430. renewal of your mind, by its new ideals and its new attitude.

  1431. So we're no longer conformed, coming to unity with uniformity,

  1432. with the world about us, but we're transformed.

  1433. Now interestingly, that word transformed is very familiar.

  1434. It's metamorpho, similar to metamorphosis, that nature

  1435. change, that change in nature. So another way of saying it is

  1436. don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed.

  1437. Change your nature entirely transfigured, completely new

  1438. nature by the renewal of your mind.

  1439. There's a transformation. And the Holy Spirit empowers us.

  1440. As we engage with the Holy Spirit, as we engage in the Word

  1441. of God, it will transform us. Our thinking changes.

  1442. There's life in our thinking. There's hope in our thinking.

  1443. There's love in our thinking in the TPT.

  1444. It says stop imitating the ideals and opinions and the

  1445. culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy

  1446. Spirit through a total reformation of how you think.

  1447. This will empower you to discern God's will as you live a

  1448. beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in His eyes.

  1449. The Holy Spirit will empower you.

  1450. See, your new life is spirit of power.

  1451. It's an unfailing love, an unreasonable peace, a prevailing

  1452. joy, a persevering patience and a mastering self-control.

  1453. That's the new life. Now, those people that bugged

  1454. you before, I'm learning how to pray for them.

  1455. I mean, I pray for them. You know, it's weird.

  1456. I start to I care for them. You know those things that used

  1457. to bug me before? They're peace of God.

  1458. It bounces off me now. Their drama can't hit me

  1459. anymore. You know, those times where I

  1460. just couldn't handle waiting, but God's given me a persevering

  1461. patience. And I find that in that

  1462. patience, in that rest, I find the fullness of God.

  1463. We are being evolved with purpose.

  1464. We are being evolved so that we may be the light on the hill, so

  1465. that we might be the ones that people see and they say, hey, I

  1466. see something in you and I want it.

  1467. It's different. What's the point of being the

  1468. same as everybody else when everybody else wants difference?

  1469. We can be that difference. I'll finish with Philippians

    Philippians 3:12–14

  1470. chapter 3, verse 12 to 14 in the TPT.

  1471. This is Paul writing, he says. I admit that I haven't yet

  1472. acquired the absolute fullness that I'm pursuing, but I run

  1473. with passion into His abundance so that I may reach the purpose

  1474. for which Christ Jesus laid hold of me to make me His own.

  1475. I don't depend on my own strength to accomplish this.

  1476. However, I do have one compelling focus.

  1477. I forget all of the past as I fasten my heart to the future.

  1478. Instead, I run straight for the divine invitation of reaching

  1479. the heavenly goal and gaining the victory prize through the

  1480. anointing of Jesus. Let's run the race.

  1481. Let's press in. Let's see what God will do

  1482. Hallelujah, Hallelujah, thank. You.

  1483. Thank you Lord, just lift their hands in response for the word

  1484. that was received, that was given today.

  1485. Just receive it with Landis. Thank you, Lord, we thank you

  1486. for all the the the words that were released today, God

  1487. prophetically from our teachers God, and we thank you, father,

  1488. that it all speaks to what you're doing in this space, God

  1489. doing in our lives. Thank you for your faith, God of

  1490. Abraham. You're the God of government and

  1491. fable promises. Time and time again you have

  1492. proven you do just what you say. Though the storms may come and

  1493. the winds may blew or remain, stand fast and let my heart

  1494. learn. When you speak a word, it will

  1495. come to pass. Is your faithfulness to me.

  1496. Come on, sing it out. Grace is your faithfulness from

  1497. the rising sun to the setting same.

  1498. I will pray your name because Grace is your.

  1499. Faithfulness to me, God, from age to age.

  1500. Though the earth may pass away, your world remains the same.

  1501. Yeah, your history can prove there's nothing you can do.

  1502. You're faithful and true and then my heart will you speak

  1503. over. You will come too fast to pray.

  1504. Give your favor is to be from the rising sun rising up to

  1505. the setting shame I will praise your name.

  1506. The grain is your favorite for this sing grain.

  1507. Grain is your flame for for Roman days from the rising sun

  1508. to the setting St. I will raise your rain is your

  1509. faith on this to me. Help me sing.

  1510. I'll put my face. I'll put my face in Jesus, my

  1511. anchor to the church. You never let me down.

  1512. I'll put my face. You'll never let me move my acre

  1513. to the ground. When one time they sing upon my

  1514. faith in Jesus, I ain't come to the ground.

  1515. I'm hoping for how many years never let me die.

  1516. He'll never let me die. He'll never let me die.

  1517. You'll never let me down. It's when I put my faith in you,

  1518. I start seeing things differently.

  1519. Yeah. You never, ever, ever, ever let

  1520. me down. No, no, no, no, no, no.

  1521. You never let me down no, you never let me down no, you never

  1522. let me down no, you never let me down no.

  1523. You never let me down no, you never let me down no, you never

  1524. let me down. No, you never let me down no.

  1525. You never let me down no. You never let me down no.

  1526. You never let me down. No, you never let me down.

  1527. No matter what I'm trying. You never let me no matter what

  1528. it wholeness to me.

  1529. The great is your faithfulness to me.

  1530. From the rising sun to the same same I will praise your name to

  1531. great is your faithfulness. I believe there's a declaration

  1532. in that I put my faith in Jesus. So we're going to sing that

  1533. again, but we're going to go a little bit deeper this time, OK?

  1534. I put my faith, Dave put the lyrics up.

  1535. Put the lyrics up, it says. I put my faith in Jesus, my

  1536. anchor to the ground. I said my hope, and he is my

  1537. firm foundation. He'll never let me down.

  1538. I don't know who needs to hear that today, but I'm telling you

  1539. there's a promise in that word that He is your firm foundation.

  1540. And I promise you, I am living testimony that He doesn't even

  1541. know how to let you down for His word says.

  1542. That he will never leave. You, His word says He will never

  1543. forsake you. So whatever you're coming in

  1544. with today, I'm here to declare and decree.

  1545. That the king. Of glory is in this room, and if

  1546. you push your faith in Jesus, I promise He'll never let you

  1547. down. So come on church, let's declare

  1548. I put my faith in Jesus. Lift it up, go to the.

  1549. Ground. That's your voice.

  1550. Come on. I feel faith.

  1559. voice. And we say this last time,

  1560. great. Here's your faithfulness to

  1561. great. Here's your faithfulness to be

  1562. great. Here's your faith

  1563. From the rising sun. The rising sun to the city save.

  1568. praise the Lord. Let everything that has breath

  1569. praise the Lord, for His mercy endures forever.

  1571. My God, it's the same yesterday, today and forever.

  1572. His promise remains from generation to generation to

  1573. generation to generation. That's who my God is.

  1574. Amen. Come on somebody, it's got good

  1578. experiences going on from this until September.

  1580. experience. We will not be having a evening

  1581. experience here. OK?
