Thank you, Jesus. 50 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,360 So let's jump straight into God's Word. 51 00:02:50,640 --> 00:02:53,640 Open your Bibles with me to the book of Daniel chapter 3 and 52 00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:56,600 also the Scriptures up on the screen for you. 53 00:02:57,160 --> 00:02:59,720 And so then we're going to see in Daniel chapter 3, we're going 54 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,840 to meet three brave young men, OK, who are the kind of a 55 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,200 courage that we all need during tough times in life, OK. 56 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,560 And so Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, they stood strong. 57 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,400 They stood strong during a time where everybody else was falling 58 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:19,880 down, but they had courage. Now I want you to see this in, 59 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:23,160 in in Daniel chapter 3. Listen carefully what they said 60 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,600 during their toughest time, their toughest moment. 61 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,880 Now it says here, we're going to just pick it up in verse 16 for 62 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:32,680 the sake of time. It says there Siderek, Meshach, 63 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,880 and Abednego answered and said to the king, Oh, Nebuchadnezzar, 64 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:38,160 we have no need to answer you in this matter. 65 00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:42,760 If that is the case, our God whom we serve is able to deliver 66 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,720 us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us 67 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,760 from your hand, O king. But if not, let it be known to 68 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:52,920 you, O King, that we do not serve your gods, nor will we 69 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,880 worship the gold image which you have said. 70 00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,600 Wow, wow, wow. Did you hear that? 71 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,240 That is bold faith. That is faith on fire. 72 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,200 Hallelujah. Let's say to your Father, we 73 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:06,920 thank you. We come before you with open 74 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:08,400 hearts. Anoint this word. 75 00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:12,720 Let it ignite A revival fire in God's people. 76 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:15,800 Holy Spirit, have your way full of fresh on us. 77 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,360 Bring renewal, transform. Let no one live the same way. 78 00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:22,320 Let people live, each and every one of us transform, 79 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,400 transfigure, and full of faith in the mighty name of Jesus 80 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:31,360 Christ, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, praise God. 81 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,560 And so, yes, well, the entire nation of Babylon, they bowed 82 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:37,280 down, these three young men, they stood up. 83 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,720 They chose courage instead of comfort. 84 00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:45,080 They chose conviction instead of convenience. 85 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,600 I mean, somebody. So they were saying, listen, 86 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:53,240 King God is able to deliver us and even if he doesn't, we won't 87 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:57,960 bow down to false gods. We won't bow down to these idols 88 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,200 and they're called. So see, I want to tell you 89 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,520 something about conviction. It is about being sure about 90 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,760 what you believe. It's sure and secure in knowing 91 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,360 and standing on what you believe for the faith that you stand, 92 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:14,640 because what you believe, what you stand for, your conviction 93 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,400 is sure then nothing can shake you. 94 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,680 Nothing can shake us. When you know conviction, it 95 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:25,640 says, listen, I am sticking with God even if it's hard, even if 96 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,600 it's difficult, I'm still standing with God even if it's 97 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,200 difficult. Or listen, I'm sticking with God 98 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:35,720 even if it is challenging. That is conviction. 99 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,040 OK. But on the other hand, 100 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,200 convenience says that, you know, I'll stick with God as long as 101 00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:43,640 it's not difficult. That's convenience. 102 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,480 Convenience I'll stick with God, but you know, I'll I'll speak 103 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,080 with God only it's if it's comfortable and I'll stand with 104 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,440 God, but only if it's easy, then I will stand with that is 105 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:55,960 convenience. But listen, let me tell you, 106 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,920 church, OK, easy won't change your life. 107 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,640 Easy won't bolt you. Easy won't strengthen your life. 108 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,760 Convenience, comfort won't bolt you. 109 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:11,320 It takes conviction. It takes the real war, genuine, 110 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,880 fiery, tested faith on fire that will carry you through the most 111 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,080 difficult times of your life. It takes that kind of a faith, 112 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,920 that kind of a conviction of a strong, a faith that has been 113 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,600 tested, a faith that is on fire that will carry you through the 114 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,960 difficult times in our lives. And so I'm here to tell somebody 115 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,440 today, the same Jesus who stepped into the fiery furnace, 116 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:39,800 the same Jesus, he's about to step into your fiery situation. 117 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,320 He's about to step into your situation right now until 118 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:47,080 whatever you're facing, he is already there with you in your 119 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,200 situation. And so God is turning your 120 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:55,400 pressure into promotion. He's turning your struggle into 121 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:58,400 strength. He's turning your test into a 122 00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:01,440 powerful testimony. Hallelujah. 123 00:07:01,600 --> 00:07:04,600 And if you're really if you really believe that God is about 124 00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,640 to do something amazing in your life and give God some praise, 125 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:11,320 open your life. So Hallelujah, celebrate God 126 00:07:11,360 --> 00:07:15,240 Almighty for what he is about to do in your life. 127 00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,480 Hallelujah. Praise Jesus, what will be to 128 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,000 God, Amen. And so back in Babylon, the both 129 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:28,160 is huge statue, 90 feet tall statue and told everyone listen 130 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,400 when you hear the music bow down. 131 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,760 And so the majority there because that was the easy way. 132 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:38,080 The majority the easy, the convenient way, the safe, 133 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,600 comfortable way. And so they all wait with the 134 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:42,120 flow. But today church, we aren't 135 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,920 choosing the easy way. We are choosing faith. 136 00:07:45,120 --> 00:07:48,560 We are choosing conviction. We are choosing the ways of God. 137 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,400 Today let's decide that we don't bow to anything except Jesus 138 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:56,320 Christ. Finally, as somebody, let him 139 00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:00,320 say your faith on fire. Come on, save my faith on fire. 140 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,840 Say that. Save my faith on fire. 141 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:06,360 Say it again like me, save my faith on fire. 142 00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:10,280 Shawn, Hallelujah. Now let me share with you 143 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,280 something amazing. In South Africa there is a 144 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:14,920 special tree. And so this tree is called the 145 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,720 Silver tree and it grows on Table Mountain. 146 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:19,400 Then catch on. And so the reason they call it 147 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,200 the silver tree is because when the sunlight hits the leaves, 148 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,760 it's reflects and it shines like silver. 149 00:08:25,960 --> 00:08:29,080 OK, now I just want to put up a picture here for you that you 150 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,039 can see how it looks like. But here's the amazing part 151 00:08:32,039 --> 00:08:36,840 about this silver tree. The seed of the silver tree is 152 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:42,480 get hidden in a cone tightly sealed for years. 153 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,360 Now let me show a picture of the cone with the seed inside. 154 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:50,200 And so these seeds just sit there quietly, doing nothing at 155 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,480 all, until one thing happens. Fire. 156 00:08:54,680 --> 00:08:59,480 When the wildfire comes, the heat of the fire breaks open the 157 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,800 cone and it releases the seed. It falls into the ground for 158 00:09:03,800 --> 00:09:08,120 growing new trees. Isn't that amazing that the fire 159 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:13,000 that seems disastrous is actually bringing new life? 160 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,440 If you get that that wildfire has seen disasters actually 161 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:20,400 bringing you life. And so in the same way with us, 162 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:25,120 just like the silver tree, there is gifts, talents, there is 163 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:30,200 greatness in US, OK. And so they come out only when 164 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:34,280 life turns up, the heat when life turns up. 165 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:39,960 Sometimes God allows difficult situations in our lives to come 166 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,480 so that we can come to a place where the greatness in US is 167 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:46,720 being released, is being unlocked. 168 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,960 And so God allows these things to take place. 169 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:54,040 Now let me ask you this. What seeds, talents or potential 170 00:09:54,320 --> 00:10:00,080 or greatness inside of you, the seeds in you is God unlocking 171 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:06,040 right now Because your greatest breakthrough often come after it 172 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:11,720 comes after a great challenge. And you see, you might feel 173 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,360 uncomfortable in the fire, but listen, let me tell you, God has 174 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,480 complete control over your situation. 175 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:22,480 God is in complete control. You know these forest Rangers, 176 00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:27,840 they call it a controlled burn, a fire that is planned. 177 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:32,640 It's carefully planned to clean out the old Grove and bring make 178 00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:37,720 room for new life and that is what God is doing in your life. 179 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:42,400 He's not destroying you he's growing you Can you say I made 180 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,680 somebody OK, so just like Chadwick Michigan badly go 181 00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:49,840 stepped out in a fiery fight. I'm going to give you 5 lessons 182 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:54,160 we learn that we can apply now point number one say before you 183 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,640 see it and that is the Bible says in second Corinthians 184 00:10:57,640 --> 00:11:00,280 chapter 413. It is written, I believe, 185 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:04,160 therefore I have spoken. Since we have that same spirit 186 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:08,640 of faith, we also believe and therefore speak. 187 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:13,640 So what you speak out loud activates what you believe. 188 00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:15,880 Insight. Okay, so the Scripture tells us 189 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:20,120 to speak it before you see, nothing moves until somebody 190 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,440 speaks it out. So the moment that you open up 191 00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:28,080 your mouth and you declare God's promises, heaven begins to move. 192 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,160 Heaven begins to shift things around. 193 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,240 But staying quietly sometimes slows things down. 194 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:37,640 But speaking boldly in faith, that sets things in motion, I 195 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,880 meant. And so these three young men, 196 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:45,800 they spoke boldly, they first spoke, they didn't wait until 197 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,920 God moved. They first declared deliverance. 198 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,440 They spoke it out. They said, listen, King, our God 199 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:57,400 is able to deliver us. So they first spoke it and then 200 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:01,120 God stepped in and moved and made it happen. 201 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:07,000 And so that is how the promises of God becomes real in your 202 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,280 life. OK, You have got to speak it 203 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,360 before you see it. I meant some of you are 204 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:17,680 listening to me right now. You are waiting on a phone call. 205 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:22,120 You are waiting on job offers. You are waiting on business 206 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:25,240 contracts to be signed. Some of you sitting here waiting 207 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,560 for properties. You're waiting for visas to come 208 00:12:28,560 --> 00:12:30,400 through. Some of you are waiting for 209 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:32,520 investors. Some of you are waiting for 210 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:36,200 emails to come through. You're waiting for that business 211 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,600 bill. You're waiting for a medical 212 00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:40,360 gagner, a report to come through. 213 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:44,440 Or maybe you're waiting for Prodigal family members to come 214 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,440 home. But let me just tell you 215 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,600 something very, very powerful. God, when the moment you start, 216 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:54,360 we are declaring God's promises. When you start declaring God's 217 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,800 promises, God begins to work. God starts working behind the 218 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,560 scenes. Angels are sent out, obstacles 219 00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:06,920 are being removed, Doors are opening wide as you are 220 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:11,160 declaring God's promises. Can you, shall I name somebody 221 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:13,480 now? Point #2 Emmanuel. 222 00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,280 God is with us, it says here in desire. 43 two. 223 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,360 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and 224 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,280 through the rivers they shall not overflow you. 225 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,680 When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burnt. 226 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:31,000 OK, now I will be with you. Underline that in your work, 227 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:36,080 because God never promised us a life without problems. 228 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,360 God never promised us a life with no problems. 229 00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:43,840 He never said, OK, that we're not going to have no problems in 230 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:45,960 this world. He never said that we are never 231 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:50,080 going to walk through fire. But what he did say is, I will 232 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:52,600 be with you. That's the promise. 233 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:56,880 That's the anchor where he said, listen, I will be with you. 234 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:01,240 OK? Now faith doesn't always keep us 235 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:05,240 out of the fiery fullness. It does always keep us out of 236 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,680 the difficult challenges, but 5 carries us through the fiery 237 00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:11,040 furnace. Come on, somebody, you might 238 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,400 feel the heat, you might feel the pressure, but you will not 239 00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,440 be destroyed. The flames will not consume you 240 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,920 because Jesus is walking you through the fire. 241 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:24,920 Hallelujah, somebody. Now I love what he says there in 242 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,560 Daniel chapter 3 talking about King nigga, but Nizza. 243 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,080 And so he looks into that fiery furnace and he's like, well, 244 00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:37,440 didn't we just in three? OK, wait a minute, wait a 245 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,720 minute. I don't just see three. 246 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,720 I'm sure we, we there was only three in there. 247 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:49,440 OK, But yes. And even he says, listen, they 248 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:53,680 said I see four. Oh my God, I feel like shocking 249 00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:55,560 on my spirit tonight. Hallelujah. 250 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,840 I see four. And you know, the 4th, the 4th 251 00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:04,520 man, he looks like a son of God. Oh Jesus, I feel the presence of 252 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:08,560 God in this place today. Oh, you see, listen, ladies and 253 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,800 gentlemen, God could have been to me. 254 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:13,480 He could have prevented the fire furnace. 255 00:15:13,480 --> 00:15:18,280 He could have stopped it, but instead he decided to step in. 256 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,880 My God, I feel anointed. That's the God that we serve. 257 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:29,280 He could have stopped that fire furnaces Almighty God, but he 258 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:33,120 decided to step in. Oh my God, that is the kind of 259 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:36,480 saviour. Listen, he's not so far off God 260 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:38,160 on some planet, millions of bullies. 261 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,040 He's not a piston God at hands of God. 262 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,520 He is the kind of a saviour that gets right in. 263 00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:48,960 He steps right into the chaos. He steps right into the mess, 264 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:51,720 into the difficulty. He steps right into your 265 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,720 midnight hour distance, right into your challenging situation 266 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,720 and he says, listen, my son and my daughter, I am here with you. 267 00:15:59,960 --> 00:16:03,320 I am with you in this. Oh my God, I feel anointed. 268 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:07,760 Somebody shot Hallelujah. You know, it's like with 269 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,560 somebody driving a lifeguard doesn't just stand there 270 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:12,480 watching. Person driving, you know, like 271 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:15,120 this with this finger is now standing on the side watching 272 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,280 from a distance. If somebody's driving a 273 00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:22,320 lifeguard, they take action. The lifeguard diving, that's 274 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,160 what Jesus does. Jesus dies in. 275 00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:28,800 Jesus steps into your chaos, into his future. 276 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:32,040 He steps into. He dies into your mess. 277 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,760 He dives into your loss, your confusion, your struggle. 278 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,520 And when you cannot swim anymore, he holds you up. 279 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,880 That's our Savior.

Get this. 371 00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:20,680 This word is going deep. This is steering something deep. 372 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:26,280 Listen carefully. All of us go through times of 373 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:30,640 testing, but God is faithful. He knows exactly what you are 374 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:35,160 going through, everything. Now listen chess, I want you to 375 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:40,160 get this because His grace will keep you from being tested 376 00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:43,920 beyond your ability to come. And then Hallelujah, His place 377 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:46,480 is sufficient. He will never let the heat get 378 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,360 hotter than what you can handle. Oh Hallelujah, this is a 379 00:22:50,360 --> 00:22:52,680 comforting word. It says here First Corinthians 380 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,440 chapter 10, verse 13. We all experience times of 381 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,600 testing, which is normal for every human being, no one 382 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:03,000 excluded. But God will be faithful to you, 383 00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,840 underline that faithful to you. He will screen filter the 384 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,840 severity, the nature, the timing of every test or trial you face 385 00:23:10,840 --> 00:23:14,040 so that you can bear it. And each test is an opportunity 386 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,920 to trust him more for along with every trial, God has provided 387 00:23:17,920 --> 00:23:20,880 for you a way of the sky that will bring you out of it 388 00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,000 victoriously. OK, so it's very clear that the 389 00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,360 scripture says, listen, every test that each and everyone of 390 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:30,840 goes through every taste is screens right before it even 391 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:34,560 hits US, it's already screamed like a heavenly filter that says 392 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,240 that we each and every one of us goes through. 393 00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:39,080 Listen, it is already it's been measured. 394 00:23:39,120 --> 00:23:41,280 He measures it come on somebody, he measures it. 395 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,760 He measures the weight of it first of all, and the timing of 396 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,120 the test and he measures the intensity of the test and he 397 00:23:48,120 --> 00:23:51,640 trips it out. And so then he custom fathoms a 398 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:55,880 furry furnace that is going to form you, that is going to 399 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:59,840 strengthen you, that is going to topology for you because each 400 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:01,960 and every one of us, we are unique. 401 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:05,920 And so it is custom foot. So you are not in some wild 402 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:10,640 uncontrollable desire is asked that you are in a controlled 403 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:15,280 poon, OK? You are under the hand of God, 404 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,160 who is in control, the creator of the entire universe, the 405 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:22,720 Master Gardener. And listen, he is using the heat 406 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:27,000 and he's got a Pomona, Indonesia said, OK, the right temperature 407 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:32,280 for your situation, for you. And he uses the heat to burn off 408 00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,960 the things that we don't need. He burns the things that we 409 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,000 don't need in our lives. He burns off the old habits. 410 00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,480 He burns off the wrong mindsets, the training, relationships. 411 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,360 He uses the heat to burn it off our lives. 412 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:52,480 So He makes room for what is about to grow in your life. 413 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,600 And so he measures the temperature so that it's just 414 00:24:55,600 --> 00:24:58,720 the right heat for you to burn off the things that you don't 415 00:24:58,720 --> 00:25:01,240 need in your life. I made somebody. 416 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,560 Now let me show you my testimony because when God called me into 417 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,880 full time ministry to plant this church, OK, it did not feel like 418 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:14,400 destiny, felt like disaster, OK? Because listen, we lived in 419 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,000 Bristol and then just wanted I had a very good stable job at 420 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:19,960 the height of my career, earning a big salary. 421 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,040 And so yes, I the secure, I felt secure. 422 00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:26,040 But then all of a sudden, BAM, everything is gone. 423 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:32,520 No income, no backup plan, no question, no safety net. 424 00:25:32,520 --> 00:25:35,800 And it felt like I've just been tossed into this fire, this 425 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:38,800 firing through this on streets. I felt over wild. 426 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,360 I felt completely unqualified. But now looking back, I realized 427 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:44,800 that that wasn't just some ransom chaos. 428 00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:49,600 That was a controlled bird, not allowed me to go through that 429 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:54,000 difficult season in my life to bring out and open up some 430 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,800 things inside of me that I didn't even know were there. 431 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,320 I didn't even know that I could preach. 432 00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:00,600 I didn't even know courage or both this. 433 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,760 I didn't know any of that. And so I described things in the 434 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:10,040 fire that I would never have found in comfort, easy, 435 00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:13,800 convenient, take it easy situation. 436 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:19,800 I found things in the fire. It takes pressure to release 437 00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:24,160 potential. It takes fire to release your 438 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:28,640 faith. And so we all walk through some 439 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,000 heat during these past years. The government lockdowns, 440 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:35,680 pandemic, business losses, loneliness, saying goodbye to 441 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,840 people we love. OK, so they were real fires, but 442 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:43,640 God's never left us. And I believe that he's saying 443 00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:47,240 to someone here right now, don't stop in the middle, don't give 444 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:49,560 up. Now you are on the verge, you 445 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:53,440 are on the edge of a shift. You're a power to see God's 446 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:57,160 favour in your fire. Hallelujah. 447 00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:02,880 Now I remember when I was young in South, I was 12 years old, I 448 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,960 was just cycling my bicycle there in the neighborhood. 449 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,720 And back then in South Africa, the yards were open, no fences 450 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,920 or security guides, all open. And I was just riding in the 451 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,680 neighborhood, enjoying my bicycle, minding my own 452 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,000 business. And so all of a sudden, out of 453 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,720 no way, this big mass of dogs starts chasing after me. 454 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,520 I mean this dog looked like it had penis in it's eyes, barking 455 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,360 and growling. My heart really dropped out of 456 00:27:29,360 --> 00:27:32,600 my chest. And so even though I was 457 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,240 terrified and small, something kicked in on that bicycle and I 458 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:41,440 just started bending and I like my life depended on it and so I 459 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:45,840 moved so far so that but I'm sure I could outrun a motorcycle 460 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,800 now. That's what pressure does. 461 00:27:50,720 --> 00:27:53,960 It pulls something out of places that you didn't even know 462 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,600 existence. Yeah. 463 00:27:55,600 --> 00:27:58,160 There's something about heat. There's something about 464 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:02,640 pressure, Tiger, that it awakens hidden strength. 465 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:06,680 I didn't even know I can pedal that fast on that bicycle until 466 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,760 that dog started barking and going. 467 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,960 All of a sudden, something jumped in me and I was just 468 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:15,400 like, wow, going for now. You might not have a crazy dog 469 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,560 chasing you down the street, but you might have a problem or a 470 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,600 struggle breathing down your neck. 471 00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:23,040 You might. Maybe there's bulls that won't 472 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:25,240 stop piling up. Maybe there is a medical 473 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,480 diagnosis that you didn't expect. 474 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:32,680 Maybe it's anxiety or depression or a family situation that is 475 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,360 just get you feeling like you're just barely holding on. 476 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:38,280 But how you respond in the pressure matters. 477 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:40,280 Yes, that's right. OK. 478 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,960 The way that you walk through the heat determines whether you 479 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:45,640 come out better or better. Yeah. 480 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:52,200 Pressure is meant to unlock potential and let real genuine 481 00:28:52,200 --> 00:28:56,880 faith arise. And so first, Peter 412 says, 482 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:02,200 dear friends, don't be surprised at the fiery trials you are 483 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,760 going through. Peter didn't just say trials, he 484 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:09,680 said fiery trials. And that tells me that there is 485 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:14,080 some trials, some struggles, that carries heat, OK, Some 486 00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:17,080 situations that are not just tough, but they are hot, 487 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:23,480 stretching, uncomfortable. And that is the moment to let 488 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:28,840 real faith arise. Genuine faith, genuine tested 489 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,800 faith. That is the faith of faith. 490 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,600 Now look back just a few chapters, first Peter one, verse 491 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:40,200 7. These trials will show that your 492 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,320 faith is genuine. It's being tested as fire tests 493 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,640 and purifies gold. And so when we take gold, 494 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:50,960 listen, gold is refined in fire, right? 495 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,760 So that is how our fate is refined. 496 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:57,080 It's through the fire. So you're getting stronger 497 00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,840 through the fire. And think about it. 498 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:04,160 Listen, a diamond only shines of the pressure, OK? 499 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:09,240 And so in the same way you are grow stronger when you walk 500 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:13,200 through the fire and you don't come up the same way. 501 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:15,640 You come out where your you have been forged. 502 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,800 Your faith has been forged with fire. 503 00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:20,560 You come out with tested fiery fire. 504 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:24,160 You come out with faith on fire. The title of today's message. 505 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:26,560 Oh my God, I thank you that you grab the thought of this 506 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:29,480 revelation and God and God, it's faith on fire. 507 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,720 That's how we come out of faith on fire. 508 00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:35,560 Hallelujah. Now next point #5 the hotter the 509 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:39,200 fire, the higher the Father. Listen. 510 00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,680 The Bible says that the king turned up the furnace 7 times 511 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,760 hotter. 7 is the number of perfection, the perfection of 512 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,240 our fight. Listen, 7 times hotter. 513 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,000 Now the king Nigabad Nizar, he thought listen, that is for 514 00:30:53,000 --> 00:30:57,520 their destruction, but really he was just preparing the stage for 515 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,800 them to go higher for their promotion. 516 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:03,760 Because the hotter you may come out, the hotter the fire, the 517 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:07,920 higher the fiber, the hotter the fire, the higher the promotion, 518 00:31:08,160 --> 00:31:11,360 the hotter my fire, the bigger my blessing. 519 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:15,440 Oh my God, someone say this. The hearts of my fire, the 520 00:31:16,440 --> 00:31:19,360 bigger my blessing. Put your eyes together. 521 00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:25,600 Praise the Lord, Hallelujah. And so, yeah, after the fire, 522 00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:29,240 the king that had just leave them alone, he promoted them. 523 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,840 God used the fire for promotion. Promote them. 524 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:36,400 Listen, don't miss this. The trial that you are going 525 00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:39,840 through, the fire, the storm that you're walking through, it 526 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:44,160 is going to be the very thing that God uses to lift you up. 527 00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:47,440 The difficulty, the challenge is that going to be the very thing 528 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:52,680 that God uses Jesus to write up your faith, to set your faith on 529 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:57,440 fire. Hallelujah, Daniel or David said 530 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,040 in Psalm 4. There's one, though, has 531 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:04,200 enlarged me when I was in distress, OK, so he said that 532 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:08,320 you made me stronger, made me stronger in my trouble. 533 00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:10,480 OK. He did not say you make me 534 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:15,880 stronger at the beach, OK? He did not say you make me 535 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,080 stronger when life is good and everything is easy. 536 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,920 He said He made me stronger in trouble, in the distress, in the 537 00:32:23,920 --> 00:32:26,520 difficulty, OK, you in my trouble. 538 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,440 Because that's when David really felt when Saul was chasing him. 539 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,120 David went through the stress when Saul was chasing, when he 540 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,000 found things that is inside of him before he was promoted. 541 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,920 And so Psalm 66, verse 12, it says he went through fire. 542 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:44,000 We went through fire and flood, but you're brought us to a place 543 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,680 of great abundance. So the fire came before the 544 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,400 favour. Okay. 545 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:53,480 So the pain came before the promotion. 546 00:32:54,440 --> 00:32:58,320 The trial came before the powerful testimony. 547 00:32:58,760 --> 00:33:01,400 OK, I said now is not the time to give up. 548 00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,720 Now is not the time to stop because the fire that you write 549 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,680 down, don't give up. Because on the other side, 550 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:11,520 abundance is waiting for you. And the Bible talks about great 551 00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:15,880 abundance is waiting for you on the other side when you come out 552 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,640 of the fire. Now let me share with you a true 553 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,280 story from the trailer we watch. His name was Dmitri. 554 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,760 And so he was an ordinary factory worker in Russia during 555 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,280 the time when following Jesus was dangerous and precursor. 556 00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:28,640 You allowed precursor everything. 557 00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:32,080 And so Dmitri started a small house church in his village. 558 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:34,400 The authorities found out about it. 559 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,240 And I warned him and said, shut it down, stop preaching, stop 560 00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:41,160 praising God. But Dmitri had fire shut up in 561 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,160 his buttons. Like, listen, I cannot stop 562 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,680 praising my God. And so they punished him 563 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,840 harshly. He lost his job, took his kids 564 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,120 out of school. And so they finally threw him in 565 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:55,400 the prison thousands of miles away from home, locked up in a 566 00:33:55,440 --> 00:33:59,040 prison with 1500 hardened criminals. 567 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:01,880 He was surrounded, a man of faith, surrounded by violence, 568 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:04,000 isolated, forgotten, but not by him. 569 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:08,360 But every morning Dimitri would get up for 17 years in his cell. 570 00:34:08,639 --> 00:34:13,400 He would face E sunrise, lift his hands up and he would sing 571 00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:17,080 the same worship son. He called it his heart song, 572 00:34:18,040 --> 00:34:21,480 Dimitri's heart song. And so the other prisoners, they 573 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:22,960 hated it. They cursed him. 574 00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:27,159 They threw fresh they marching. But Dimitri, he's just saying 575 00:34:27,159 --> 00:34:29,480 anyway. And not just that he would 576 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:33,440 written scriptures, find script papers and he would write the 577 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,600 scripture. I put it in the pillar in his 578 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,480 cell, the crack pillar. And these notes said Jesus is 579 00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,280 alive. Jesus is alive. 580 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:43,360 And so these gods did everything. 581 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,960 They came to break Dimitri. They mocked him and they lied to 582 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:49,400 him. And one day they told him that 583 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:53,239 his wife is dead and his children has been taken away. 584 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:58,200 And that broke him. And he decided, and he agreed to 585 00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:02,640 write the confession to deny his faith in Christ. 586 00:35:05,240 --> 00:35:07,800 He agreed to sign the confession to deny Christ. 587 00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,800 But let me tell you something about the faithfulness of God. 588 00:35:11,600 --> 00:35:18,360 That same night, in his cold, darkened prison, Dmitri heard 589 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:27,400 his family praying for him. Not in, not in person. 590 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,160 He heard his family praying. Not through a phone call. 591 00:35:31,760 --> 00:35:37,720 Supernaturally, by the power of the Holy Spirit, God allowed him 592 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:44,480 to hear the voice of his wife. Oh my Lord, Jesus, fire Jesus. 593 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:47,680 He could hear the voice of his wife praying for him. 594 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:50,240 He could hear the voice of his children praying for him 595 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:56,080 supernaturally and that sound of his family praying for him that 596 00:35:56,080 --> 00:36:03,040 brought life back. And he just, he just life came 597 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:06,720 back and he tore up the confession and he just shouted, 598 00:36:06,720 --> 00:36:09,600 I'm a child of God. I am a servant of the living God 599 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:15,080 and his name is Jesus. Hallelujah glory I shot. 600 00:36:16,600 --> 00:36:18,400 And so later they came to execute him. 601 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:24,640 And so as the gods marching down, they down the hallway and 602 00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:29,040 they, the gods expected silence. But as they reached the end, 603 00:36:29,560 --> 00:36:32,600 just before they reached the end, all of a sudden something 604 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:39,600 happened. 1 by 1. Every prisoner got up 1500 mains 605 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,160 to their to their feet. They turned E they lifted their 606 00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:47,840 hands and they sang the same heart song, Dimitri's heart 607 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:51,040 song. Together they sang the same song 608 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:55,000 they once mocked. It echoed like Thunder in that 609 00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,760 prison. The gods froze and they 610 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:02,000 whispered, Who is this man? And Dimitri, the kid, I'm a 611 00:37:02,040 --> 00:37:05,720 child of God. I am a servant of the living 612 00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:10,520 God. His name is Jesus, and those 613 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,640 gods didn't kill him. They marched him right back to 614 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,960 his shell. And not long after that, Dimitri 615 00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:19,800 was released for prison. Hallelujah. 616 00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:22,560 He didn't leave that prison broken. 617 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:26,640 He didn't leave that prison. But he walked out bold, 618 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:30,880 anointed. And when he got home, revival, 619 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:37,120 spread night, wildfire.
