1 00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,120 OK, So I want to talk to you about position of power. 2 00:00:03,720 --> 00:00:06,720 Now. That's the theme of today and 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:10,040 the title that I put up here, I'll put it up in a minute. 4 00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:13,720 It's over here. I'm so great. 5 00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:15,960 Still standing. Somebody says still standing. 6 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:21,680 OK, so after everything, all these years, everything that we 7 00:00:21,680 --> 00:00:24,720 have been through, we are still, yeah, we are still standing. 8 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,840 Can you save me somebody? We are still standing. 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:33,000 Somebody say still standing. I feel the anointing of God in 10 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,520 this place. Courage is rising. 11 00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:37,480 Faith is already in this group. So I'm going to go straight into 12 00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:39,920 the word, OK, Are you ready for the word? 13 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,400 If you're ready for the word, somebody shout Amen. 14 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:47,880 OK, All right, so if your neighbor shouts louder, just 15 00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,040 borrow their faith, OK? If your neighbors shouts louder, 16 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,920 Amen. And I mean yes and Amen, borrow 17 00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:57,160 their faith, OK? Because faith is shareable, you 18 00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,480 can share faith. Borrow your neighbors faith. 19 00:00:59,560 --> 00:01:02,960 If the Amen is louder today, OK, Hallelujah, praise God. 20 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,800 So let's open the Word together in Ephesians chapter 6, 21 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:13,840 Ephesians chapter 6 and we are going to read from verse 13, 22 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,160 right? I'll put it up on the screen for 23 00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:24,400 us like usual, verse 13 and 14. Now this is very powerful. 24 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,760 I've had Apostle Paul talking about the full armor of God. 25 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:36,840 Therefore, put on the full armor of God so that when the day of 26 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:41,840 evil comes, you may be able to stand everybody. 27 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:46,760 Say stand your ground. And after you have done 28 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,240 everything right, you've done everything to stand. 29 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,160 Stand firm. Then stop standing. 30 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:02,240 Father, we honor your presence. Lord, speak clearly. 31 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,880 Holy Spirit, move freely, do what only you can do, touch your 32 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,920 heart. Let no one live the same way. 33 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,120 In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray. 34 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,320 And God's people say a man, Yeah. 35 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,960 So Ephesians chapter 6, Paul the apostle talks about the armor of 36 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,600 God, and he says put on the armor of God, stand your ground. 37 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:27,440 And then after everything he says, keep on standing, stand 38 00:02:27,640 --> 00:02:30,960 firm. Now notice he did not say OK fun 39 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,080 when life gets difficult. He did not say run when when it 40 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:36,920 gets rough. He did not say hideaway or 41 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,400 shrink back when you feel afraid. 42 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,280 He did not say hideaway, escape or run away. 43 00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:46,480 He says stand firm. So after you've prayed, after 44 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,440 you've praised and worship, after you've done everything 45 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,840 that you know what to do. The Bible says stand firm after 46 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:59,440 everything, keep on standing. That is a position of power. 47 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,840 Okay, Are you getting this somebody? 48 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:06,520 So after everything, after the praise, after the stand is what 49 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,760 he says. And so the revelation in actual 50 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:12,640 that when you stand for God, heaven stands for you. 51 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,560 Come on, somebody shout Amen. Amen. 52 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,000 That's right. That's the word of the law. 53 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,360 And so standing is not passive. It's not weak. 54 00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:22,000 Standing is not just doing nothing. 55 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,320 Standing is not folding your arms and just hope for some 56 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,440 things to work out. It's not staying like, you know, 57 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,360 hoping things are waiting for the worst. 58 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,720 OK? Standing is a faith choice, 59 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,560 right? And so it's saying to God that 60 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:44,280 God, I trust you, I am not going to panic because you fight my 61 00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,320 battles. The battle belongs to the Lord. 62 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,440 Come on, somebody. So standing is not weakness. 63 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,120 Standing is strength. Standing is a weapon. 64 00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,920 So when you stand your ground on God's peace, peace say God. 65 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,240 That's what peace says. God is here and God is in 66 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,080 control and God is bigger than any problem. 67 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:09,240 Somebody shout Amen. OK, so are you getting this 68 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,480 somebody because your apostle Paul talks about the armor of 69 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:16,760 God, put on the armor of God. And then he shows us how to 70 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:21,040 stand in life when life gets tough, when it gets difficult, 71 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:24,240 how to stand and make a stand for God. 72 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,840 And he says keep on standing. And he says it over and over 73 00:04:26,840 --> 00:04:28,920 again. When you read that chapter, it's 74 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,800 all over it. That's one of the most powerful 75 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,960 chapter 6, the last chapter in the book of officials. 76 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:37,560 Paul says I have lived the the most important things for last 77 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,760 and he goes through it and he keeps on saying the same thing 78 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,040 four times. He says verse 11, he says put on 79 00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,880 the armor of God so that you can take your stand. 80 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:50,040 Verse 13, put on the full humble of God so that when the evil day 81 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,440 comes, you might be able to stand your ground and after 82 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,600 yours are able, everything to stand. 83 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,320 Verse 14, stand firm then. And I love it because God is 84 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,160 putting his highlighter on that phrase, on this revelation, this 85 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,400 principle. It's all throughout the Bible. 86 00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:05,880 And today we're going to run through the Bible. 87 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:08,720 I'm going to show you a scripture of the Scripture, this 88 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:12,360 powerful principle that's going to help us in these last evil 89 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:16,440 days that we are living in. How do we stand in these days? 90 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:20,160 Now God is saying something powerful because the very next 91 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:22,520 verse, He connects it to the shoes. 92 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,400 Now listen, His shoe stands for peace. 93 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:28,320 I want you, I want you to grab hold of this revelation about 94 00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:33,160 standing and how it goes together with peace because 95 00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,880 what's the shoes? Verse 15, very next verse and 96 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:40,960 with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the 97 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,600 gospel of peace. Somebody say peace. 98 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,720 So think about shoes. Shoes don't necessarily make you 99 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:51,520 faster shoes gives it it keeps you from slipping. 100 00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:56,200 OK, gives you grip. So in the storm speed don't save 101 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:01,840 you, but grip wall. OK, so the the shoes, the piece 102 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:09,240 that is your grip. This is the grip, OK, in a very 103 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:14,880 slippery on a slicky wall, this is the grip of your soul. 104 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,240 That's how strong peace is. It's an anchor. 105 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,320 That's peace in your life. And so when the ground shakes, 106 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:28,200 this helps you to stand firm on the ground planted with your 107 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,200 feet. And so when the enemy tries to 108 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:34,560 push and the enemy cannot get a grip because peace is your grip, 109 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:40,000 this is the thing that gives you the anchor in your life. 110 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:43,800 Now, maybe today you are here and you feel like you are right 111 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:47,680 there in the middle of a store in a difficult situation and you 112 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:50,160 got a bad report pressure at work. 113 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,680 And there's a relationship that feels really shaky and things 114 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:57,360 feels really difficult in your life at the moment with bad 115 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,600 reports. Listen, here's the key right 116 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,560 here. Often, let's start straight into 117 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:09,240 stand steady, stay anchored. That's the key today. 118 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,200 So make a decision today that I will not be shaken, OK? 119 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:17,040 I will not be slipping and sliding. 120 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,480 I'll be standing. And when everything is over and 121 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,440 everything is done and everything, I'm still standing. 122 00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:27,920 So when the dust settles and when the smoke clears, I'm still 123 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,280 standing. Somebody said I'm still 124 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,240 standing. I'm still standing. 125 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:33,840 Yeah, yeah, Yeah, I'm still standing. 126 00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:38,640 And I want you to picture this, this anchor deep in the ocean 127 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:43,480 floor, buried on the ocean floor, grounded, solid deep 128 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:44,920 down. Calm stop. 129 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:48,560 On the surface, It's it's all stormy. 130 00:07:48,640 --> 00:07:54,560 The winds are howling and the the rain hits and it's waves and 131 00:07:54,560 --> 00:08:00,520 it's all stormy on the surface, but deep down and in the ocean 132 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:05,640 floor, the anchor is grounded, buried under that ocean floor, 133 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:09,200 solid, calm, peaceful right there. 134 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:11,720 It's anchor, this anchor of your soul. 135 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:18,160 And so your peace, your position of power, you're standing on 136 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:22,280 your ground on the peace that is your anchor. 137 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:27,760 Peace is your anchor and that anchor is deeper than your 138 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:30,920 storm. It's deeper than your difficulty 139 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:33,880 situation. That is shakening in the world 140 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,440 because you have got an anchor of your soul and it's peace. 141 00:08:37,799 --> 00:08:41,039 Somebody shot peace. Hallelujah for peace. 142 00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:44,000 So that is standing. Standing is dropping your anchor 143 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,280 and being anchored in a very shaky world where things are 144 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,480 shaking. Now, let me give you like 145 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,880 another picture. You've seen a like a camera 146 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,960 operator taking footage. Now let's say it's at the 147 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,800 sporting event and the camera opera is moving around to get 148 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,480 all the sporting events and moving through the crowds and 149 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,520 the people bump and the surface is uneven. 150 00:09:06,440 --> 00:09:08,720 So it's bumpy, it's uneven, it's everywhere. 151 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:15,720 But the footage is smooth. The video footage is smooth. 152 00:09:16,560 --> 00:09:20,920 Why is the video footage still smooth even though in Rihanna 153 00:09:20,920 --> 00:09:22,640 it's really bumpy and it's shaky. 154 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,960 People are bumping, the person is moving around, the camera is 155 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,440 moving. Everything is moving and 156 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,480 shaking, but the footage is why? Because of a stabilizer. 157 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,760 Now, I don't know if you've seen a gimbal or like these days with 158 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:39,720 the Gopros, they have a stabilizer both in and so the 159 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:45,120 stabilizer absorbs the shake. Can you say, I mean, somebody, 160 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,040 OK. And so that is what peace and 161 00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,400 the Holy Spirit is doing on the inside of you. 162 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,120 The Holy Spirit inside of you is a stabilizer. 163 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:59,880 He stabilizes the shakes the Holy Spirit in you. 164 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,400 It stands for peace, and it absorbs the shaking. 165 00:10:03,680 --> 00:10:07,680 So wherever in life there shakes, Maybe life's up and down 166 00:10:07,680 --> 00:10:12,320 lives wobbly, people shake, the economy shakes, politics shakes, 167 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,480 everything is shaking everywhere. 168 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,080 But the Spirit keeps your frames steady. 169 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,040 The Holy Spirit in you is your stabilizer. 170 00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:25,880 And the bump won't break your frame, OK. 171 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:29,200 And so the bump won't break you because the Holy Spirit is your 172 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,560 stable. It keeps your frame steady. 173 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:35,360 And so you are not defined by what's going on in the world. 174 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:38,600 You are not defined by the shakings and the difficulties. 175 00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:40,280 You are not defined by the shaking. 176 00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,000 You are defined by the stabilizer. 177 00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:43,960 Somebody shot. Hallelujah. 178 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:48,160 Put your hands together for the Lord, Hallelujah, because I want 179 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:50,640 to show you the power of these things coming together. 180 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,680 We've got the Spirit and now we've got the word. 181 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,440 Now let me give you a picture of that, the word of God. 182 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,160 I remember travelling on an airplane and I was flying, I was 183 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,360 flying to South Africa, and at one point in the airplane we hit 184 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,880 heavy turbulence and it was shaky. 185 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:10,240 And the airplane, the cabin, it was really like shaky and pumpy 186 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:15,280 heavy turbulence and dawn on me that yes, it's shaking in the 187 00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:18,800 cabin and there's a lot of turbulence and shaking, but that 188 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:23,520 doesn't mean there's trouble in the cockpit, OK. 189 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,000 And so that pumps. It was just going on. 190 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,880 You know when you travel and you're on the plane and that 191 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:33,640 turbulence hits and it's pumps start, hands grabs the arm 192 00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:37,800 rests, hearts are racing, sweat coming and people are. 193 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:42,840 The pilot comes on and says, ladies and gentlemen, we are 194 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,160 going to look for smoother air. And all of a sudden, now 195 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:48,800 nothing's outside change yet. But all of a sudden people are 196 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,280 relaxed. It's a relaxing. 197 00:11:51,560 --> 00:11:54,320 The cabin is relaxed. The whole cabin suddenly 198 00:11:54,440 --> 00:11:56,320 relaxes. Why? 199 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:03,360 Because the pilot spoke. When the pilot speaks, the 200 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:09,680 calmness comes, the peace comes when the pilot speaks, the panic 201 00:12:09,680 --> 00:12:13,240 loses power When the pilot speaks. 202 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,440 Now God's word is the calm voice. 203 00:12:16,680 --> 00:12:19,600 God's word is like the pilot speaking. 204 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:23,520 God's word sets all your soul. It brings calmness. 205 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:27,240 One word from God brings calmness into your situation, 206 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,200 one promise from God. And so I don't fly by feelings, 207 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:36,600 I fly by the voice. And the voice says peace, be 208 00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:41,000 still, calm. And so you don't have to see the 209 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:43,440 pilot. You don't have to see God to 210 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:47,120 believe. You don't have to see the pilot 211 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:51,240 in the carpet, OK to trust the captain's word that gave you 212 00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,120 reassurance. And the same with God's Word. 213 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:57,160 One word from God sets all your soul. 214 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,920 One promise from God gives you calmness and peace in the midst 215 00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,360 of your storm, in the midst of your shaking, in the midst of 216 00:13:05,680 --> 00:13:08,920 the shake. Now maybe you came in today and 217 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,240 you're carrying a lot of weight and pressure and difficulty, 218 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:14,840 health issue, a financial payment that is due. 219 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:19,520 You're carrying family crisis, a difficult situation in a 220 00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:22,040 relationship. Maybe it's a family member or 221 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,120 child far from God. The enemy whispers, listen, 222 00:13:25,120 --> 00:13:29,400 panic, run away, hide, get away, worry, worry more, stress more. 223 00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,800 And the enemy keeps on pushing, pushing, pushing. 224 00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:38,560 But listen, panic is not power. This is this is power. 225 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:48,440 And so life is 10% what happens to us, but 90% of how we 226 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:58,240 respond, 10% what happens to us, and 90% how we respond. 227 00:13:58,680 --> 00:14:05,480 Now the greatest victory is to stay calm when everything around 228 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:11,600 you is shaking in fear. Make peace your position of 229 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:16,040 power. Somebody say peace is my 230 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:19,320 position of power. Yeah. 231 00:14:19,320 --> 00:14:24,040 You plant your feet when the economy shakes, when there's 232 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:28,400 trouble in the world, when people misunderstand you, when 233 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,400 there's rumors about you, gossip about you, things flying around. 234 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:39,600 That is the time to stand in peace and stay calm and know 235 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:45,200 that God will defend you. Leave the rumours under gossip, 236 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:49,600 leave it alone. God will defend you. 237 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:56,440 God will fight for you. Now, I know some of you might 238 00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,520 think well past the world. That sounds really good. 239 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,200 That sounds very encouraging, but you don't know the detail of 240 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,600 my situation and the difficulty and the challenges and the 241 00:15:04,600 --> 00:15:07,120 pressure that I am going. And yes, you may be right. 242 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,440 I might not know the details of your situation, but I know the 243 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,680 God of peace and the God of peace. 244 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:17,160 He promises that if you stand and remain calm, He will back 245 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,880 you. He will cover you. 246 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,920 Heaven will stand for you. Heaven will defend you. 247 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:24,880 Heaven will cover and stand and fight for you. 248 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:29,400 That's the God that I know that he promises if you will take 249 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,520 your stand, heaven will stand for you. 250 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,240 That's the God that I know. Somebody showed. 251 00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:35,360 Hallelujah. Come on. 252 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,320 Yeah, he will back you up. And every believer reaches a 253 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:42,320 point where we have done everything. 254 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:45,040 You've prayed every prayer you've done, you've fast, you've 255 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,880 prayed, you've been teacher, you've praised, you've worship, 256 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:50,960 you have literally quoted every scripture that you can remember. 257 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,880 You've declared the scripture you've declared you have spoken 258 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,960 every promise that you you have done everything that you know 259 00:15:56,960 --> 00:16:02,040 what to do and thank the Holy Spirit whispers now stand. 260 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,720 Oh, I know, oh, is somebody getting this word today? 261 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,120 You're getting this and the Holy Spirit comes and we have done 262 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:22,240 every right fast and the Holy Spirit now stand no stand, stand 263 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:25,080 your ground. And God sent me you today to 264 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,200 tell you it's time to stand your ground. 265 00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:30,320 Now is not the time to give up. Now is not the time to throw in 266 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:34,560 the tower to collapse. Now is the time to stand your 267 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:39,880 ground, to plant your feet and say, I trust God. 268 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:43,600 I made somebody. Come on, give God some praise. 269 00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:50,880 OK, now this is what I've learned. 270 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,160 There's something else that helps. 271 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,760 Just like we put our phones on airplane mode, sometimes you 272 00:16:56,760 --> 00:17:01,440 have to put your mind on airplane mode for for a few 273 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,800 minutes every day. Put your mind on airplane mode. 274 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:08,440 Turn down the noise, turn down the clutter before the emails 275 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,480 are text. Turn it down to yeah, because a 276 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:18,640 quiet heart, yes, from God. And so for me that helps. 277 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:22,200 I'm on every morning, first thing in the morning, quiet my 278 00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:24,079 heart. It's the first thing when I wake 279 00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:31,120 up, I'm on airplane mode, anchor down TuneIn my ears to hear what 280 00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:34,320 the pilot is saying because the pilot's words is going to give 281 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:38,080 me calmness. And the first thing when I when 282 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,520 I listen and I'm on airplane mode for those few minutes I 283 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:45,800 receive peace as an anchor, calmness, wholeness. 284 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:51,240 Before the day gets busy, before the crisis hits, I first anchor 285 00:17:51,360 --> 00:17:58,240 down and get the pilot's voice. Now let me show you a man who 286 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:01,400 modelled this in Daniel. Now remember in Daniel chapter 287 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:05,680 5, the king of Babylon died and then a new king from the Medes, 288 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,680 Rosa, and he became king. Doris became the new king and 289 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:14,280 the very next chapter Daniel 6A new law was signed. 290 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,960 No prayer. OK, it sounds like the days we 291 00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:22,960 are living in right now because when I grew up prayer was a big 292 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,800 thing in our school. And so they say no prayer 293 00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,360 allowed. No prayer. 294 00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:33,200 You cannot pray to nobody or anyone except to this new the 295 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:38,520 Mead, the new king. And so Daniel heard this. 296 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,560 Now listen, this wasn't just a suggestion. 297 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:44,600 This was punishable with death. This is a death sentence. 298 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,480 And so Daniel used the news, and here's what he does. 299 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,640 Daniel 6, verse 10. But when Daniel learned what the 300 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,880 law had been signed, he went home and knelt down as usual in 301 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,480 his upstairs room with its windows open toward Jerusalem. 302 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:03,400 He prayed 3 times a day, just as he had always done, giving 303 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,880 thanks to his God. I love that phrase. 304 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:13,720 Just as he had always done, just as always like as usual. 305 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,400 Now picture this. He went home in now town and he 306 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,960 prayed like usual. Open his windows to Jerusalem. 307 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:26,880 Did not hide his faith, did not shrink back in fear or stress 308 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:31,240 about the new law. But he kept his schedule. 309 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,600 Nothing in his routine changed as usual. 310 00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,000 The Bible says he didn't hide his faith. 311 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:43,000 He simply kept on doing what he always did, and that was pray. 312 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:48,080 So he kept his peace. He stood his growl. 313 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,840 That's the kind of peace that wins battles. 314 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,800 That's the kind of stand. And what helped Daniel to stay 315 00:19:56,800 --> 00:20:03,240 steady and to stay calm? Anchors kept him shorted. 316 00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:05,600 Now there's many. I'll give you just a couple of 317 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:07,800 anchors. The first anchor that kept him 318 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:15,240 calm was memory. Daniel never forgot what he's 319 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:20,560 God has been faithful, had always been faithful and so he 320 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,680 could look back and he's like God was faithful then and so God 321 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,880 will be faithful now. And he remembered back when they 322 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:28,920 were taking captor from their country and they were brought 323 00:20:28,920 --> 00:20:32,440 into and he's like God protected us through all these years. 324 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,440 He's built up a history with God over all these years. 325 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:39,440 By now he's already been advanced this build up a history 326 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:42,720 with God and you remember. So memory builds courage. 327 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,680 And he says in Psalm 77, verse 11, I will remember the deeds of 328 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,480 the Lord. Yes, I will remember your 329 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,080 miracles of long ago. So when anxiety triggers, when 330 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:55,760 anxiety rises, when anxiety or stress or worry comes, think of 331 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,240 your own story. Think of your history with God 332 00:20:58,240 --> 00:20:59,680 where God's answered your praise. 333 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,440 Think how God's carried you, where God's open doors for you, 334 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,600 given you jobs and opportunities, where God has 335 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:08,680 opened doors and opportunity. I carried you every day and you 336 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:11,320 thank God, He said, I thank you Lord, that you have done that 337 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,960 and you did it before and you will do it again. 338 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,360 It's so powerful when we remind God, well, I guess you did it 339 00:21:17,360 --> 00:21:18,840 then and you'll do it the same again. 340 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:23,560 He will do it again. And so a second anchor years 341 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:28,480 number 2 was routine. Peace doesn't show up by 342 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,720 accident when there is a crisis or when there is difficult. 343 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:37,360 Your childhood stuff, it grows in a daily routine, every day 344 00:21:37,360 --> 00:21:39,880 prayer, it grows. Daniel didn't start praying when 345 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:44,000 the Lord came in, OK, When the Lord, he kept on praying. 346 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,120 And the Bible says morning, midday, evening, three times a 347 00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:50,720 day. So Daniel's prayer routine, that 348 00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:52,840 was his strength, that was his rhythm. 349 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:58,640 He got into a routine rhythm, and so he kept it firm and that 350 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:02,320 kept him from the pressure. He could stand strong. 351 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:05,800 And so that daily prayer in your life, that is your routine, 352 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,560 that's your rhythm. You pull the rhythm every day 353 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,080 you meet with God. And so that's why spending time 354 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:14,600 with God in the morning, sleep matters, spending time with the 355 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,040 Lord before you go to a before you the the text and the emails 356 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,840 before the noise of the phone, before everything else, meet 357 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:24,400 with God. OK, take a few minutes, pray, 358 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,440 read a verse and you are connecting with God. 359 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,320 You're connecting with heaven in those moments and you're talking 360 00:22:29,320 --> 00:22:33,640 to God before the crisis, before life pushes, before the 361 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:37,360 difficulties and the challenges that rhythm, it keeps you from 362 00:22:37,360 --> 00:22:40,520 sliding in the times of pressure when pressure hits. 363 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:43,080 And so Daniel was drove into the lives then. 364 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:48,440 But God send forth his angels to shut the lions mouths. 365 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:52,200 God was fighting for him. Somebody shout Hallelujah. 366 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,760 Yeah. Because when Daniel stood in 367 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:59,520 peace, the Angel stood on duty. OK, your job is to stand. 368 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:04,520 God's job is to silence the the mouths of the lions. 369 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,920 That's God's job. Your job is to stand. 370 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,440 God's job is to shut the lion's mouth. 371 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:17,320 The battle belongs to God. And then somebody shout 372 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,520 Hallelujah, somebody say the battle belongs to God. 373 00:23:21,120 --> 00:23:24,480 Yeah, it is the Lord's battle. And so this isn't just the story 374 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,280 for some time far along ago. This is the strategy for the 375 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:29,560 season we are living in right now. 376 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:35,440 Yes. And so we all face lions in our 377 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:39,520 lives with modern names. We all face it. 378 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:42,960 Medical report that draws at that. 379 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,080 OK, a legal letter on the kitchen table. 380 00:23:48,200 --> 00:23:51,120 Maybe it's a workplace that marks your faith. 381 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,000 Maybe it's a child far away from God so that the strategy is 382 00:23:57,000 --> 00:23:59,680 still the same. And here it is. 383 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:04,560 Remember God's faithfulness. Keep the prayer routine, the 384 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,000 rhythm. Keep the prayer rhythm and stand 385 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,200 your ground in peace. Yeah, I meant somebody. 386 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:14,640 And so Psalm 91 says that God gives his angels charge over 387 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,120 you. And so I call them the night 388 00:24:18,120 --> 00:24:22,120 shift angels. So they work while you sleep. 389 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,080 They're working on your behalf while you wait. 390 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:32,640 God still sends helps. And so heaven answers an 391 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:38,360 unshaken stand. Can you say Amen? 392 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:42,680 And so it brings me to my next point, that when you stand, you 393 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,520 don't stand alone. When you look at the ancient 394 00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:50,560 wars and the battles, the soldiers, they would March in 395 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,640 formation, and it's called the phallus. 396 00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:55,920 They put those Shields against one another. 397 00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:01,120 And those Shields were so large, so big that that large shield 398 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:05,160 doesn't just cover the soldier, but also the one next to him. 399 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:09,080 That's how big those Shields. So they cover 1. 400 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:13,440 And so in case one of the soldiers stumble or slips, they 401 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,880 could quickly shift over and close the gap. 402 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:20,040 And So what happens in that soldiers in that formation, 403 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,200 there's a very powerful strategy is they could cover one another. 404 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:26,600 They very quickly 1 soldier stumble, quickly cover. 405 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:32,320 That's a picture of the church. When a brother or a sister feels 406 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,360 weak, we cover one another. We very quickly cover one 407 00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:37,840 another. Learn to stand strong and watch 408 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:40,800 this with the gladiators because he said, listen, whatever comes 409 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:46,120 out of that, whatever lion is coming out of that thing, and 410 00:25:46,120 --> 00:25:50,720 remember in the Colosseum what he said is stand together. 411 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,160 Listen, we are stronger together church and God is bringing His 412 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,640 church together because whatever is going to come against us, we 413 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,320 have got to stand together and we are standing in the age where 414 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,440 we are now learning to cover one another. 415 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:08,440 When a brother or sister force or feels weak and you feel like 416 00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:10,440 finding you feel like oh, I want to throw in the towel. 417 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,800 I want to give up. A brother or sister says listen, 418 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:16,840 lean on my shield. Now when you look at the full 419 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:20,680 armor of God, what does this shield talks about? 420 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:23,200 The shield represents come on the armor of God. 421 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:28,120 The shield represents what? Thank you. 5 There is a five 422 00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:33,640 that is transferable. There's a faith that can be 423 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,560 shared. We are sharing faith. 424 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,240 We are stronger together. Church, somebody say stronger 425 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:41,200 together. Come on, shout it stronger 426 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,400 together. Put your eyes together, give God 427 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:47,480 some Christ, somebody Hallelujah, stronger together. 428 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,360 And so maybe you feel right now lions are circling, but when you 429 00:26:52,360 --> 00:26:56,520 stand and you refuse to flinch, you are following the example of 430 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,120 Daniel. And listen, he simply stood his 431 00:26:59,120 --> 00:27:03,320 ground in peace. And look at the result. 432 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:07,280 Daniel's stand changed the nation. 433 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,720 Oh my God, I believe God is raising up people in the UK in 434 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,200 this nation right now that will take a stand against evil. 435 00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,840 It will shake our nation. God only needs one. 436 00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:30,520 And Daniel what 1 stand changed the nation so much so that the 437 00:27:30,520 --> 00:27:34,240 king Diaries wrote a new decree and said everyone should 438 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:37,040 reference and respect the God of Daniel. 439 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:40,160 It's coming church. It's coming to our nation. 440 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:42,440 I must somebody give God some faith. 441 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:46,040 Daniel 6 verse 26. Let me read that out to you. 442 00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:49,280 He says for you, this is king Darius for he's the living God 443 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:51,920 and he induce forever his Kingdom will not be destroyed. 444 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,440 His dominion will never end. He rescues and saves. 445 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,120 This is the king speaking. He performs science, oneness in 446 00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:01,840 the heavens, and only he has rescued Daniel from the power of 447 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,440 the land. Your stand for God can shift 448 00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:08,160 your region, your neighborhood, your community. 449 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,920 Your stand for God can shift laws. 450 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:18,600 Your stand for God can shift entire workplace, schools, 451 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:22,280 communities, campuses shifted to see the glory of God. 452 00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,360 Your stand for God. Somebody shot Hallelujah. 453 00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,040 So let me ask you, where is God asking you to stand? 454 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,320 Is it in a business situation or is it in a family to keep on 455 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,200 loving where there's constant conflict? 456 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:42,680 God asking you to stand and keep on loving. 457 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:47,440 God asking you in your workplace, business career, 458 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:52,600 maybe it's in your health to keep on believing God for 459 00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:55,240 healing when the report, the medical report says it's 460 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:59,080 hopeless. So where is God asking you to 461 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,320 make a stand stand in your position of power. 462 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,440 Now I want to show you what happens in heaven. 463 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,640 Can we go a little deeper here? What happens in heaven when a 464 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:15,200 believer choose to stand because we're going to see this in the 465 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:19,280 book of Acts Chapter 7. Think about Stephen made a 466 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:21,480 stand. Now he was being stung for his 467 00:29:21,480 --> 00:29:25,120 faith. The Bible says in verse 55, but 468 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:28,960 Stephen full of the Holy Spirit looked up to heaven and saw the 469 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:34,480 glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. 470 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:41,160 Look he said, I see heaven open and the Son of man standing at 471 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,400 the right hand of God. Somebody say standing. 472 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:49,200 Now usually the Bible shows Jesus as seated, finished, work 473 00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:53,160 on the cross finished, victory done, Jesus seated. 474 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:58,400 But yeah, when Stephen stood firm and he refused to bow to 475 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:05,560 fear, Jesus stood up. My God, I feel the anointing in 476 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:11,960 this place. The seated king stood up and he 477 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,920 rose. Think about that. 478 00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:20,440 The King of Kings, he stood up, he rose up to his feet. 479 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:25,760 The King of Kings rose up to his to honour, to honour somebody 480 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:30,440 who will not back down. Oh, I feel the power to God. 481 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:39,440 Jesus standing up. Oh yes, my son, Oh, I feel 482 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:47,000 heaven in this place. Oh Lord Jesus standing, honoring 483 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:53,800 a brave soldier, standing up in a wicked, hostile culture while 484 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:56,920 he's being stored Jesus to them. Oh, I want that. 485 00:30:57,440 --> 00:30:59,320 I want that somebody. I want that. 486 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:06,120 Yes, God. Oh yes, holy Lord, Oh yes. 487 00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:10,120 We honor the courage of Charlie Cook, who's standing up for 488 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,680 righteousness in a wicked generation, standing up for the 489 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:16,640 truth and for what is right. And I believe that God is 490 00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:20,360 turning that tragedy into a holy revival. 491 00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:22,680 Oh, somebody shout out Hallelujah. 492 00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,720 Oh yes, it's standing around Pampas is awakened young people 493 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:32,080 standing for the truth, a generation standing for revival. 494 00:31:32,320 --> 00:31:35,640 Hallelujah. And yes, Stephen's martyrdom, 495 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,120 being martyr, who was standing there next to Stephen when he 496 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:46,800 was martyr Saul and his martyr triggered the conversion of Saul 497 00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:50,120 who was persecuting the church. Saul became the apostle that 498 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,920 planted mortal. He triggered A worldwide 499 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,320 evangelism explosion, ignited a fire. 500 00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:00,560 Holy goes where? I believe the same thing. 501 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,400 Like for God, he's bringing about a global awakening, a 502 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:10,240 global revival on campuses, colleges, schools, universities. 503 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,000 He's opening already, people of God. 504 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,960 He's breaking loose. The devil has gone too far. 505 00:32:17,200 --> 00:32:21,680 He has at least revival. He's touched the wrong person. 506 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,240 You should never have touched Charlie. 507 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:28,560 There's no we are all sorry. God is raising up a standard 508 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,680 when the enemy comes in and that standard is a man and a woman of 509 00:32:31,720 --> 00:32:35,120 God and his wife Erica says you should never have done that. 510 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:39,360 You have unleashed revival, a global awakening, and he's 511 00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,320 touching every corner of this globe. 512 00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,320 Are we going to see the greatest harvest of souls coming before 513 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:48,800 Jesus comes back very soon? Hallelujah. 514 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,000 I feel the glory of God in this place. 515 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,840 And so, yes, what the enemy meant for evil, Oh yeah, God 516 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,840 will turn it, forgive it, because God is always one step 517 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,000 ahead of the enemy. God is large, God is in charge, 518 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:04,320 and God's got this all covered. Hallelujah, somebody shot. 519 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:08,000 Hallelujah. Second Chronicles 69 For the 520 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,920 eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth to 521 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:17,840 show himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to 522 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,640 him. God is looking for people right 523 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:23,120 now. His eyes are looking to see who 524 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:27,960 will stand, who will be the one that will be loyal, that will be 525 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,840 committed, who will be the one who will plant their feet in 526 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:34,720 trust so that he can show himself strong. 527 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,840 Just when you stand for God, heaven stands for you. 528 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:43,840 I want you to always remember that. 529 00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:47,880 And when you make a stand for God, wherever wake up a campus, 530 00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:52,320 wherever workplace, wherever might be rough in the natural at 531 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:55,080 that workplace, they might mock you and laugh you and think that 532 00:33:55,080 --> 00:33:57,920 you're strange. But listen, heaven stands. 533 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:02,240 When you make a stand at the PILF Centre and you hand out 534 00:34:02,240 --> 00:34:05,160 Flyers and you walk up to people and you tell them the gospel, 535 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:09,480 heaven stands with you. Heaven goes with you wherever 536 00:34:09,480 --> 00:34:13,000 you evangelise, wherever you go, heaven stands right there with 537 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,360 you. That is how God's Kingdom 538 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:17,560 operates over and over. The Bible shows up. 539 00:34:17,719 --> 00:34:22,840 When you stand steady in faith, God moves in power, and so when 540 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:26,600 you stand, you invite heaven's divine intervention. 541 00:34:26,840 --> 00:34:29,960 Remember Jehoshaphat in Second Chronicles chapter 20? 542 00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:35,600 When three nations came against them, three nations came in, 543 00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:39,120 three armies came against Judah and the prophecy. 544 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,880 Do not be afraid, the barrel belongs to the Lord. 545 00:34:43,719 --> 00:34:50,280 You will not need to fight this. Just stand the prophet of God. 546 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,760 Take this. Just take your position. 547 00:34:56,159 --> 00:35:00,920 Just take your position, judge your position of power in this 548 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,240 hour. Just stand still and you will 549 00:35:04,240 --> 00:35:08,400 see the salvation and the deliverance of your God. 550 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,840 He will come through. Somebody shot Hallelujah. 551 00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,880 Let me read it to you. 2nd Granular 20 This is what the 552 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,880 Lord says to you. Do not be afraid or discourage 553 00:35:19,040 --> 00:35:22,640 because of this vast army, for the battle is not yours, but 554 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:27,440 God. The 17 You will not have to 555 00:35:27,440 --> 00:35:34,800 fight this, but take up your positions, stand firm and see 556 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:42,640 the deliverance of the Lord will give you stand, stand your 557 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,440 position. Take note of that. 558 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:49,320 The position talks about the position of power. 559 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,520 This is used. The same idea is used in the 560 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:57,040 book of Ephesians Paul used he says stand, stand firm. 561 00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:00,680 That's what Paul the apostle gives us this revelation to 562 00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:06,560 stand firm and Jehoshaphat obeyed and the Bible says that 563 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:10,160 when the choirs sang their songs, oh the Lord, we thank you 564 00:36:10,160 --> 00:36:16,560 Lord, your love endures forever. That's when God, heaven fought, 565 00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:24,280 God said ambushments and he turned the enemy on itself. 566 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:28,200 Somebody shout Hallelujah, Oh glory, beat your God. 567 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:33,920 The battle belongs to the Lord. So I want to throw these 568 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:38,400 scriptures in because I want you to see heavens responds when a 569 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:42,000 believer stands, when you choose to stand. 570 00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:47,240 The Bible says in first John 2 calls Jesus our advocate. 571 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:55,360 Imagine standing in a court and the advocate, let's say it's a 572 00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:59,560 court of heaven in the heavens and the devil, the enemy accuses 573 00:36:59,920 --> 00:37:02,840 and throws all your failures shows, all your mistakes, all 574 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,880 weaknesses, every reason that you disqualify. 575 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,280 You have to give up your advocate. 576 00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,320 Your defender stands. What does the advocate do when 577 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,240 they're in court? They stand up for you. 578 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,400 That's what your advocate will do in a court situation, the 579 00:37:18,400 --> 00:37:21,640 court case. They will defend you and Jesus 580 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:25,480 will defend you with his life. He's not going to run out the 581 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:29,000 back door when things get rough. He's going to defend you with 582 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:32,120 his very life. And your advocate stands up and 583 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:37,160 he rises and he says, listen, that place, that one is mine. 584 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:42,440 You devil, you liar, you offering all these fighter, I've 585 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:46,160 paid for all of that. I've paid it in full. 586 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:48,520 And you know what? And the advocate says, I've even 587 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,240 paid it with my own blood. I was a martyr. 588 00:37:51,480 --> 00:37:54,040 I sweat blood. And I wasn't just inside. 589 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:57,560 It was a long drawn out suffering on the cross dripping 590 00:37:57,560 --> 00:37:59,280 blood. That blood is still speaking. 591 00:38:00,520 --> 00:38:02,560 The martyrs blood are still speaking today. 592 00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,800 They are crying out. Oh, we can hear the blood, we 593 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:08,960 can hear the bloody Speaking of mercy. 594 00:38:09,560 --> 00:38:11,440 And Jesus said, I paid it in full. 595 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:16,600 And the judge lowers judge, the Father lowers the gavel and he 596 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:18,960 says case closed. You are the righteousness of 597 00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,520 God. You are called righteous. 598 00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:25,240 Come on, somebody. Come on somebody, you are called 599 00:38:25,240 --> 00:38:29,400 righteous, favour protected. Yeah, because the Bible talks 600 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,200 about the almond of God, about the righteousness of God. 601 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,120 The brace plate. Come on, what is the brace 602 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:35,840 plate? The brace plate talks about the 603 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:39,120 righteous of God. When you stand on what Jesus has 604 00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,840 done, you silence every table in hell. 605 00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,800 You silence every accusation and allegation of hell. 606 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:50,880 When you stand on what Jesus has done #2 heaven respects courage. 607 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:56,120 Now imagine, just think of this picture of a captain of the 608 00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,400 army. And this captain is standing, 609 00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,560 and he's saluting the captain of the armies of heaven. 610 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:08,120 And he's saluting a brave soldier that refused to give up, 611 00:39:08,480 --> 00:39:10,840 a brave soldier that refused to retreat. 612 00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:16,320 And here comes the commander of chief of Heaven's armies, the 613 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:22,280 captain himself, and he salutes the soldier, the brave soldier, 614 00:39:22,560 --> 00:39:26,680 and he looks them in the eye, and he says, well done, good and 615 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:30,200 faithful servants, come on, see Jesus saluting. 616 00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:36,320 You see Jesus serving soldier brave once living in the year 617 00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:42,360 2025, saluting your bravery, your courage, Oh yes, heaven 618 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,920 respects courage. Now let me give you one last 619 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:48,080 scripture and this is incredible. 620 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,800 Estral is standing in front of the Red Sea. 621 00:39:52,000 --> 00:40:00,160 No bridge, no boat, no way out. Moses stands up and he says the 622 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:03,760 same thing. It's I told you it's all 623 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,520 throughout the Bible. This is a very powerful 624 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,040 principle for the anytime Church. 625 00:40:09,080 --> 00:40:13,200 He says this in Exodus 1413. Do not be afraid. 626 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:18,360 Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring 627 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,320 you today. The Egyptians you see today, you 628 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:25,160 will never see again. The Lord will fight for you. 629 00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,920 You need only to be stopped. You only need to stand in a 630 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,520 position of power. Church, When you take your 631 00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:39,480 position of power, when you stand your ground, you hold your 632 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,760 peace. The Bible says the word declares 633 00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:45,840 that the Lord himself will fight for you. 634 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:50,880 Oh Hallelujah. He will fight for you, He will 635 00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:53,920 conquer for you. He will defaint you, He will 636 00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,040 stand for you. And I feel a prophetic push 637 00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:00,960 right here and I want to declare this over your life that the 638 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,360 Lord will fight over you and your family. 639 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,880 I just feel this urge in my spirit right now to release 640 00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:11,640 this, to tell you today, church, God will fight for you. 641 00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,760 He will defend you, He will stand up for you. 642 00:41:14,960 --> 00:41:17,720 He's your champion, He's your commander in chief. 643 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,880 He will fight for you. And the Bible says, and God will 644 00:41:21,880 --> 00:41:25,400 deal with your enemies, the enemies that you see today, 645 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,640 whatever. If it's citrus, depression, 646 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:31,760 anxiety, the enemies that you see today, you will see them no 647 00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:34,320 more. You will see them no more. 648 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,560 I decree on the play in the name of Jesus. 649 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:43,000 The enemies that you see today, you will see them no more. 650 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:48,640 Hallelujah, somebody shall keep us a praise in this place. 651 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,640 Hallelujah, God. Yes, cherish. 652 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:55,960 You will see the victory. You will see the salvation of 653 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,200 the Lord. You will see the deliverance of 654 00:41:58,200 --> 00:42:00,760 the Lord. You will see because the battle 655 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:03,720 belongs to the Lord. God is fighting for you. 656 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:10,120 God is fighting for you. I feel the anointing of the Holy 657 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:13,280 Ghost. Whatever enemy has been 658 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:17,080 troubling you in the night, in the dreams, whatever nightmare, 659 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:21,000 whatever attack you've been, God will deal with it. 660 00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:25,240 God will deal with the lies. And that's for a fear that's 661 00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:28,680 been tormenting God's people. God will deal with that spirit 662 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:30,840 of fear. You will break that oppression, 663 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:33,400 that intimidation, that spirit of traceable. 664 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:37,240 God will deal with her. God will fight. 665 00:42:37,240 --> 00:42:38,760 Tell your neighbor God will fight for you. 666 00:42:42,440 --> 00:42:46,120 God will fight for you. Come on, God is fighting for 667 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:49,080 you. Get this revelation today 668 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:53,760 Church. But notice the condition that a 669 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:58,600 stance required and is a position of power of standing on 670 00:42:58,760 --> 00:43:01,080 peace. Stand firm, hold your peace. 671 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,240 So if the Bible says hold your peace, then God is saying that 672 00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:07,360 there is something that is trying to steal your peace. 673 00:43:07,480 --> 00:43:09,960 There's something that's trying to steal it, something that's 674 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,400 trying to rob it, anxiety, fear, doubt, trying to. 675 00:43:13,600 --> 00:43:17,520 But if you can hold on to peace, if you can hold on to it, if you 676 00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:22,640 can stand steady, remain calm, stand your ground, then the 677 00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,120 Creator of the universe goes to work and he works on your behalf 678 00:43:27,840 --> 00:43:29,520 and him. God fights for you when he 679 00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:32,320 stands and works for you. Nothing can stand against him. 680 00:43:33,080 --> 00:43:35,240 Nothing or Novak can stand against God. 681 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:39,840 He's the creator of the universe, somebody that's got 682 00:43:39,840 --> 00:43:44,120 all power, all strength. There's no problem or enemy 683 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,400 that's too big for God. He's the one on the front ruling 684 00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:51,360 the universe, Hallelujah. And so he's the one that we see 685 00:43:51,360 --> 00:43:53,520 in the body. He shut the mouths of the lions. 686 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:56,800 And I believe that God is about to shut the mouth of the enemy 687 00:43:57,120 --> 00:44:00,440 on the social media, on Facebook, on Instagram. 688 00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:04,120 God is about to shut them down. He's going to shut down the 689 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:05,800 enemy. He's going to shut down the 690 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,400 lies. Jesus is coming back soon. 691 00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:12,040 And the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our 692 00:44:12,040 --> 00:44:15,400 God. We went, we went, we went. 693 00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:22,000 The Bible says we were church because the battle is we are the 694 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:24,120 winners because God fights for us. 695 00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:27,800 God has chosen us and He will work on your behalf. 696 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:31,880 All that we do is you will hold your peace and you will stand 697 00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:35,920 your ground and remain at race. And God promises to fight your 698 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:40,440 battles and He will make a way where there seems to be no way. 699 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:44,080 When Israel saw the Red Sea, there seems to be no way. 700 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:50,240 But God overrules the Red Sea and he right away through the 701 00:44:50,240 --> 00:44:54,240 Red Sea, somebody shout Hallelujah, the battle belongs 702 00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:58,520 to the Lord. So hear me, Church, let God 703 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:05,920 fight for you, Let him fight. Your battles He takes. 704 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:11,280 When you stand at peace and you stay calm, God will take the 705 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:14,360 fight. Let him fight. 706 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:18,040 That's a position of power. Maybe you've been saying I'm 707 00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,960 outnumbered, I feel I'm not good enough. 708 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:26,000 I've been surrounded by loud voices, illegal notice, a letter 709 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:31,640 from a solicitor, a court case, a financial trouble, family 710 00:45:31,640 --> 00:45:34,120 trouble. Heaven is saying you are not 711 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,640 alone. You are not fighting that 712 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:40,080 situation alone. Heaven is standing with you now. 713 00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,800 I think about a time we met in Crownwood. 714 00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,000 This is going back years now, seven years, not far from here. 715 00:45:46,720 --> 00:45:49,800 And we're in the meeting and there was a gentleman and he had 716 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:52,480 a very, very difficult immigration case. 717 00:45:54,280 --> 00:45:56,960 It was had to do with his passport, his work visas. 718 00:45:56,960 --> 00:46:01,080 This was before breakfast. And so the lawyer said this, and 719 00:46:01,080 --> 00:46:04,840 this is hopeless. But that gentleman, we prayed 720 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:09,360 and he decided I am going to give this case into the hand of 721 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:12,360 God. God is going to fight this case 722 00:46:12,360 --> 00:46:15,640 for me. The battle belongs to God, the 723 00:46:15,640 --> 00:46:19,240 battle belongs to the law. And he just stood his peace. 724 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:24,080 Hypers that should have taken months and years were approved 725 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:30,720 in weeks. Yeah, doors opened. 726 00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:35,400 They could not explain it. And later, he testified, he said 727 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:41,160 it was like God himself went to the Home Office and got himself, 728 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,840 fought the battle for me at the Home Office himself and sorted 729 00:46:44,840 --> 00:46:46,680 out the permit, the passport, everything. 730 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:51,480 That's what happens when you give the battle to God. 731 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:55,960 Give him the battle. Somebody let him fight your 732 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,400 face. Let him fight your battle. 733 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,560 Let God do the fighting and you do the standing. 734 00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:06,120 Because when you stand, heaven stands. 735 00:47:06,320 --> 00:47:10,920 So plant your feet and say to every storm, every accuser, I 736 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,320 will not be moved, I will not be shaken. 737 00:47:13,520 --> 00:47:17,320 Listen, the battle is the Lords. Somebody shout, the battle is 738 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:21,320 the Lords, the battle is the Lord's. 739 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:26,040 So when you stand and you stay calm, God fight your battles. 740 00:47:26,040 --> 00:47:27,880 Now let me give you 1 simple picture. 741 00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:33,360 Lifeguard training. OK, lifeguard training, they 742 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:38,760 will teach you in an emergency, in a situation of drowning. 743 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:42,040 Stay calm. Anybody's done lifeguard 744 00:47:42,040 --> 00:47:43,880 training. You lifeguards. 745 00:47:43,880 --> 00:47:48,120 OK, so they teach you this, that wolf lifeguard training in the, 746 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,080 let's say, open sea or something. 747 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:55,800 What they say is do not splash. Do not flash the water and 748 00:47:55,800 --> 00:47:56,880 splash the water. Why? 749 00:47:56,880 --> 00:48:00,160 Because you will sink faster. I remember this. 750 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:03,400 I've done this training and they say do not splash and do not 751 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:06,400 flash because you will sink. You will sink down there. 752 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:14,800 Tease makes you to float and when you relax and you at peace, 753 00:48:15,000 --> 00:48:19,200 you float until help the emergency service, the rescue 754 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,080 services come. So you relax and you float. 755 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:26,040 That's what happens when you stay calm, OK? 756 00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:29,920 Because the more that you fight the water, the more that you 757 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,960 fight and splash and thrash and panic, the more you're trying to 758 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:36,360 sort out the the thing at work or the family situation or the 759 00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,200 relationship. I'm trying to sort out this 760 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:41,840 relationship type this e-mail. The more panic you get, the more 761 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:44,360 water you are fighting, the quit. 762 00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:49,280 You drain me, you tire when you drowning, that's what it's a 763 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,440 drowning. It's a training exhaustion. 764 00:48:51,840 --> 00:48:55,160 It's an exhaustion the more you fight the water and and 765 00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:59,480 drowning. And so when you stay calm, when 766 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:05,280 you stay at rest, when you relax and you're like give it to God 767 00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:07,440 and you relax. I'm not going to worry. 768 00:49:07,480 --> 00:49:09,400 I'm not going to stress. I'm going to relax. 769 00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,560 The stronger you get. That's a revelation. 770 00:49:13,240 --> 00:49:16,080 Come on, Sasha, I met somebody. Are you getting this? 771 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:20,000 Let God fight your battle. Let him fight for you. 772 00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,680 The battle is the Lord. This is over and over in the 773 00:49:23,680 --> 00:49:27,680 Bible when you do a study of this, I've seen it over and over 774 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,080 the years researches the battle belongs to the Lord. 775 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,000 The battle belongs. This is a powerful revelation 776 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,080 says that you need to get you know who had this revelation? 777 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:38,400 David. He also David said it on the 778 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:44,400 field against Goliath there there's a one David said it the 779 00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,320 prophet said it in Jehoshaphat's time. 780 00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:54,560 Moses said it to the Israelites at her AC over and over all the 781 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:59,480 apostle again he refers to it in the New Testament and he's a 782 00:49:59,480 --> 00:50:02,840 standard because your job is to stand. 783 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:08,160 God's job is to fight the barrel belongs to God. 784 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:13,480 So in closing this week, step into this week with a steady 785 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:16,520 heart. Stand your ground, hold your 786 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:18,560 peace. And after you have done 787 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:23,080 everything, after you've done prayers and stand, stand in 788 00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:27,240 peace, stand in trust, stand in the Word of God and watch what 789 00:50:27,240 --> 00:50:30,400 heaven does.
