1 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:07,920 Welcome, welcome. Nice to see you. 2 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,840 I've never had so many letters in my life after last Sunday. 3 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:15,760 If you weren't here, you'll never, I don't think, ever 4 00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:20,720 experience again ever the intervention of God in such a 5 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,560 most marvelous way. You can't reenact it. 6 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:25,560 And you think, well, what are you going to preach? 7 00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,600 After last week, I can preach nothing except the word of God. 8 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,880 And as you know, I've just come back from Australia and I was 9 00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,800 deeply touched by Hillsong Church and, and, and many of you 10 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,680 will have an opinion on Hillsong Church. 11 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,600 You would have watched the documentary series that they did 12 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,360 on Hillsong Church. I just want to tell you that 13 00:00:44,360 --> 00:00:48,120 inside of Hillsong Church are thousands and thousands and 14 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:56,160 thousands of godly, anointed, humble, faithful, faithful 15 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,600 people that have seen the Kingdom of God advance through 16 00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,000 their efforts and through their sacrifice and through their 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,480 prayers and through their love to that church. 18 00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:07,520 There are one or two people that have made bad choices, but the 19 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,840 organization is absolutely filled with incredible people. 20 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,920 And, and the thing that inspires me as I come back here is that 21 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:20,880 with this group of people, we can make a radical difference in 22 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,440 our nation, a radical difference. 23 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,560 They bought a piece of property. I don't know what the value is. 24 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,920 I didn't ask, I was too scared to ask. 25 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,040 But they bought a piece of property 35 years ago in Sydney, 26 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,720 which has now become one of the main suburbs of Sydney. 27 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,760 And it must be worth a billion Rand, this property, I thought 28 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:41,600 we've got this little piece of land. 29 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,920 And Can you imagine if we buy the land next door and the land 30 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:49,680 next door and we build orphanages and we build schools 31 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,200 and we build Bible college And in 25 or 30 years time when we 32 00:01:54,200 --> 00:02:02,280 dodded up from Naisner or most of you are being still by or or 33 00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:07,080 Krit Brock, I know where you Pretoria guys go Kneisner. 34 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:16,560 Where do you come from Kneisner or from from still Fontaine or 35 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,600 fleasby? Fleasby is there, but that's 36 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,600 it's like still by for the most and fleasby for the really rich 37 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,920 guys. When you come back and imagine 38 00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:28,000 this whole piece of land belongs to Jesus and and and and 39 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,600 Pretoria has extended out there. And in the middle of this is 40 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,360 this bright light that we helped to establish something of the 41 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,480 gospel. It's amazing. 42 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,680 And so we're we're doing a series on Galatians. 43 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:40,480 It's not going to come up on the board where I'm going to read it 44 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,240 to you and I'm going to just preach a few things. 45 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:45,120 It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. 46 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,080 Stand firm then and do not let yourselves be burdened again by 47 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:51,760 a yoke of slavery. So we we're talking about 48 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,600 freedom in in all sorts of areas, completely free from the 49 00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,760 law, free from the rules and regulations of religion, but 50 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:02,280 filled with the spirit, not to do our own thing, but to obey 51 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:03,640 God. But from an internal 52 00:03:03,640 --> 00:03:05,760 perspective, not an external set of rules. 53 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Mark my words. I, Paul, tell you that if you 54 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,800 let yourselves be circumcised, Christ will be of no value to 55 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:13,760 you at all. Stephen preached so well in this 56 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,720 last week. Again, I declare to every man 57 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:19,360 who lets himself be circumcised that he is obligated to obey the 58 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:21,480 whole law. It goes on in the book of, of 59 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,160 Galatians and says you guys are into circumcision. 60 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:26,520 I just wish you'd go the whole way and cut the whole thing off. 61 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,920 You can read it. I'm going to, I'll preach and 62 00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:33,640 run it with a hopefully with a rusty blade. 63 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:38,560 So that in fiction sets in and that you never trust religion, 64 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,880 but you only trust grace. You only trust grace. 65 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,760 That's what Paul is saying. He's so radical against religion 66 00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:47,080 that he's saying you I'm going to keep preaching until you 67 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,840 understand that you're free, but you're not so free that you can 68 00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:52,600 do whatever you like. You're free to obey the Spirit 69 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,640 of God. You are trying to be justified 70 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,040 by law, have been alienated from Christ. 71 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:04,360 You have fallen away from grace, but by faith we eagerly away 72 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,880 through the Spirit, the righteousness for which we hope. 73 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,520 So there's hope for in Christ Jesus. 74 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,640 Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. 75 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:18,240 The only thing that that counts is faith expressing itself 76 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,040 through love. So we've got faith, hope, and 77 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,040 love. You know the scripture that 78 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,640 says, and these three things remain faith, hope, and love. 79 00:04:23,840 --> 00:04:25,680 And the greatest of these is cash flow. 80 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,400 That's not what it says. That's just what every 81 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,760 businessman says. So it says, this is what I want. 82 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:38,040 I want you to have faith expressing itself in love. 83 00:04:38,840 --> 00:04:41,360 And so in the book of Exodus, when he came back from 84 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,840 travelling, he came back and shared the triplet. 85 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,840 I've come back with faith in my heart. 86 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,040 And it comes into Galatians that we must have faith because 87 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,640 otherwise this just becomes another Sunday. 88 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,760 We just come together and it's kind of what we do, but we 89 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,040 actually have to come here with faith in our hearts. 90 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,040 Did you see what happened there? A lady baptized the lady, a man 91 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,600 baptized the lady, a lady baptized the man, a white 92 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,400 baptized the black a a big guy baptized another big guys. 93 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:10,400 Did you see what happened? That that is just in the 94 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:13,000 baptismal pool. And we can sometimes just sit 95 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,920 and think, oh, it's just another Sunday, but we've got to have 96 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:20,120 faith. And so this is what it says. 97 00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,040 It says Galatians. I've spoken on the yokes Stephen 98 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,960 has spoken on, but he says, this is what I'm looking for. 99 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,640 I'm looking for faith, working through love. 100 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,240 I'm looking for faith working through love. 101 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,520 And this is how Hebrew goes. And, and you don't have your 102 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:34,760 Bibles with your 97% of you don't. 103 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:38,720 But if I ask you the, the, the, the heroes of the faith are 104 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:43,080 mentioned in Hebrews 11. And if you read Hebrews 11, 105 00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,440 it's, it's the kind of faith that we need in Hebrews 11. 106 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,680 They're four members of faith. The first four, the first one is 107 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,080 Abel, which Stephen preached about last week. 108 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,840 Abel believed in the blood. The second one is Enoch, and 109 00:05:56,840 --> 00:05:58,640 there are two Enochs. There's Enoch who had a city 110 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:01,240 named after him, and there's Enoch who walked with God. 111 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:05,160 The guy that is in the in Hebrews 11 is the guy who walked 112 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,040 with God. We've got to have faith to 113 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,600 believe in the blood, but we're not sitting here Sunday after 114 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,240 Sunday believing the blood, believing the blood and doing 115 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,360 nothing about it. You've got to have faith to walk 116 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:16,600 with God. You've got to take that blood 117 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:18,000 and you've got to go and walk it out. 118 00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,440 The third guy mentioned is a guy called Noah and Noah built the 119 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:24,320 ark and he covered it with pitch. 120 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:28,320 That's exactly the same thing that covered Moses's basket. 121 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:32,360 It's a redemptive you cover, you build something that is covered 122 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:35,600 with redemption. And so now for hundreds of years 123 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,200 built God's vessel on earth that was going to bring redemption. 124 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,240 And so we actually have to have faith to build the church. 125 00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:47,440 You can't just come here as a consumer enjoying this beautiful 126 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:49,960 building, enjoying this beautiful people, enjoying 127 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,680 beautiful worship and thinking. But I'm not contributing to any 128 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:54,200 of that. We don't take up an offering. 129 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:56,840 You can relax, but you have to have faith to build the church 130 00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:59,800 because the Bible says it is now through the church. 131 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,760 Now through the church. This flawed group of people with 132 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,440 a pastor sometimes talks too long and and all the IT is now 133 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,160 through the church that the manifold wisdom of Christ will 134 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,360 be made known to the principalities of powers. 135 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:16,600 It's not through your business or your beach houses still by it 136 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,320 is through the church that the manifold wisdom of God will be 137 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,000 made known to principalities and powers. 138 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,920 It's through the church. Jesus Christ purchased the 139 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,240 church with his blood. And so this very flawed group of 140 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,960 people is God's plan A for the earth. 141 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:34,400 It is not even the government. It is the church, the church. 142 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:38,080 And so we'd like Noah, we have to have faith to build God's 143 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,400 thing on earth when nobody understands. 144 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,080 And we are going to come here on Tuesday. 145 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,080 I'm, I'm not even asking, I'm telling you you're coming here 146 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,840 on Tuesday because by faith, we're going to trust God for our 147 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:51,600 nation because the church has to come together. 148 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,800 And the problem, friends, sometimes when you walk into an 149 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,400 established church is that you never contribute because 150 00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,760 everything's been paid for. So you just become a consumer 151 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,480 that enjoy all the byproducts of but none of your resource, your 152 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,000 time, your energy, your influence goes into. 153 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:12,520 I just met a man outside there in the I just walked past him 154 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:14,920 and said, hi, my name's Rory said hi, Rory, my name's Bob. 155 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:16,840 I said, hey, Bob, so nice to meet you. 156 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,480 I said, who are you? Bob told me his surname. 157 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:28,080 I said I know that surname. He said yes, my children are 158 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:32,200 Bobby and Carlene Van Yosfeld. I said, Bob, you produced those. 159 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:40,120 I said, can you sing? He said not really, but he said 160 00:08:40,120 --> 00:08:42,640 this. He said I love this church. 161 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,320 I. Said thanks, Bob, I. 162 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,520 Love this church. Just Bobby's sitting in the 163 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:52,280 overflow room. Been coming for a year. 164 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,280 Maybe your name's Bob or John or Candace. 165 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,760 I know what your name is. But, but, but we've got to 166 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,720 contribute. We've got to have faith that 167 00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:03,080 this thing can thrive. Amen. 168 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:05,560 And, and the fourth guy is Abraham. 169 00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:08,160 And God says, I will bless you, Abraham, and you'll be a 170 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:09,720 blessing to the nations of the earth. 171 00:09:10,400 --> 00:09:13,000 I will bless you, Abraham, and you'll be a blessing to the 172 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,840 nations of the earth. Friends, this is not to boast or 173 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,280 brag, but my father, my spiritual father taught me. 174 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:23,080 He said, Rory, God will bless you and you must take that 175 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,160 blessing and you must go and bless the ends of the earth. 176 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,800 So Hillsong asked me to come and preach there and they say I will 177 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:33,560 pay for your aeroplane tickets to come to Hillsong because 178 00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:35,520 people in the chest gets all caught up with money. 179 00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,640 I've tried to set you free, but I want to tell you you're still 180 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:44,160 responsible. And so I booked my tickets and 181 00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:46,760 we didn't get our credit cards ready. 182 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,200 So I put it, I've got an overdraft facility. 183 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:52,760 I put it on the credit card and and then the secretary from 184 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,480 Hillsong SMS says, please send us your bank details past the 185 00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:57,160 buyer. We want to pay for your airplane 186 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,040 tickets. And I felt God say to me, but 187 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,560 this is not how you grew up. You didn't grow up with this 188 00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:03,440 faith. We are not businessmen within 189 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:06,600 transactions. So we had enough money in our 190 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:09,040 church account and Hillsong have got money in their church 191 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,320 account. And because I'm going there, 192 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,480 we're going to do a transactional decision where 193 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,680 they're going to transfer money from their account into our 194 00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:17,440 account and we can actually pay for the tickets I set with the 195 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,040 elder. I said, guys, we are not 196 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,640 businessmen. How about faith? 197 00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,840 Am I'm going to stand up in Hillsong and preach when they've 198 00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,840 paid for me to come here? There's no faith involved. 199 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,880 There's no seed, there's no power inside of that journey. 200 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:32,880 So I'm going to stand up there. It's awesome. 201 00:10:32,880 --> 00:10:35,280 It's like everything's paid for. I get picked up by a driver. 202 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,280 I've got my own Land Cruiser I'm at and I'm thinking, no, I'm 203 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:39,640 Alani. But there's no faith. 204 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,960 There's no price, there's no sacrifice. 205 00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,800 So I said to the elders, we called together, I said, guys, 206 00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:49,600 is it possible that maybe we can pay for the tickets? 207 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,000 And then when I get there, I can say, actually three CI would 208 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,600 like to bless Hillsong. And then I walked and the elder 209 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,400 said, that's cool. We've got enough money to cover 210 00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,720 your tickets and, and which is your money. 211 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,760 And and then I walked out and felt like I said, but why don't 212 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:10,030 you pay yourself? You see, friends, when we preach 213 00:11:10,030 --> 00:11:13,550 this, I'm not preaching from a perspective of a hot pulpit 214 00:11:13,630 --> 00:11:16,230 lecturing people. I'm saying there's a journey 215 00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:19,720 that we inherited from our forefathers who trusted God, 216 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:21,800 that we're going to plant churches all over the earth. 217 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,720 And God is going to come through not by the principles of this 218 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:29,680 world, by the principles of the Kingdom, Amen. 219 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:34,280 And I've told this to our leaders friends, but there's a 220 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,080 little girl in this church who lost her parents, lost her dad 221 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,560 and her grandparents and and her funeral was announced. 222 00:11:40,560 --> 00:11:44,160 And I was meant to go to court on the Thursday because I 223 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,960 witnessed the domestic violence case and I was a witness. 224 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,320 And I went on the Thursday and it is meant to be Friday. 225 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:53,160 I went on Thursday. I ended up going to Nailsprit on 226 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,360 the Friday. I walked in, the pastor started 227 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,440 weeping. I said, what's wrong? 228 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,960 He said I'm in trouble. And I've asked God to. 229 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:03,000 Send you to help me. Now I'm sitting in Nailsprit. 230 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,760 Friends by faith because there's a little girl. 231 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:07,560 In this. Church who lost? 232 00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:11,440 Her dad. I'm sitting there by faith and I 233 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,000 said what's wrong? He said I've got my in law 234 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,560 staying with me. I don't even have enough money 235 00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:17,200 to buy groceries. So I went to Woolworths. 236 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,240 I bought him groceries. I gave it to him. 237 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,680 On Saturday morning I woke up, there's a man who's owed me 238 00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:26,120 money since 2018. Enough money friends, I thought 239 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:27,920 I'd written it off. I thought I'd never get the 240 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,200 money. At 8:00 on Saturday morning, the 241 00:12:31,200 --> 00:12:33,800 money got put into my account and I paid for my own tickets to 242 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,840 go to Hillsong. So don't sit here and think. 243 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,200 There he goes again, traveling. Overseas, I've got faith to 244 00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:42,360 build this thing. I'm not, I don't. 245 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,040 I will not rip you off on your money. 246 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,920 I want to rip your money off. But I want to tell you, as we 247 00:12:48,920 --> 00:12:52,280 preach freedom, it doesn't release your responsibility. 248 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,400 It doesn't release your responsibility. 249 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,200 You're completely free, but you're still under the Spirit. 250 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:04,160 And then I stood up in front of 300 businessmen in Hillsong, 300 251 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,160 of their top businessmen were invited to a meeting and I could 252 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:08,920 stand up there by faith. And say I've got. 253 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,280 Skin in the game, I believe God, I'm going to put a seed inside 254 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,800 of this thing and that seed is going to produce fruit. 255 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,960 Amen. You got to have faith to be 256 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,840 here. You are not just a observer 257 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,800 through the three CR ranks. This was built with blood, sweat 258 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:27,080 and tears and the praise of many people. 259 00:13:27,240 --> 00:13:29,960 And I want to ask you to come to choose their nights being so we 260 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,480 could cry out to God for our nation. 261 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,560 Amen. So you've got to have the faith 262 00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:38,320 in the blood of Abel. You've got to have faith in the 263 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,240 blood. I'll, I'll introduce you to a 264 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,960 girl I met in Australia. I'll call her the girl from 265 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:44,880 Gulu. You can put a picture, please. 266 00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:49,600 The girl from Gulu, Isn't she beautiful? 267 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:56,640 Her name is Laura. I met Laura at the end of the 268 00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:58,840 conference and she was at the hotel. 269 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,040 Reception She was about to be picked up in a car and I walked. 270 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,920 Past her, I said how are you, ma'am? 271 00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,120 She said how are you? And I said you're about to. 272 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:07,600 Leave this conference and you saying God hasn't seen you. 273 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,200 Hey. And she burst like crying. 274 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,480 She said yes, that's exactly what I felt in my heart. 275 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,520 And I said no, but God has seen you. 276 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,000 I took her hands like this and she started to weep. 277 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:21,800 Her dad. Peter came to Uganda, was sick, 278 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:28,040 went to hospital, was nursed by a nurse in Uganda who eventually 279 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:33,120 fell in love with and they had a child and before she was born he 280 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,920 got on an aeroplane and he flew back to Australia to his other 281 00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:38,640 family. Those are. 282 00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,240 His natural children. And she never met her. 283 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,280 Dad And she chased her dad all over the world trying to find 284 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:50,120 him. But she couldn't and then COVID, 285 00:14:50,840 --> 00:14:54,880 she ended up in Australia. That's her dad, Peter and her 286 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,200 dad had said to her. Siblings, one day there's going 287 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:01,600 to be a girl who phones you, there's going to be a girl who 288 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:05,680 phones you one day and I want to make sure that she gets an 289 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:09,600 Australian citizenship. She never met her dad. 290 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,960 And so she had to. Go for blood tests and she had 291 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,960 to find her siblings and they all had to give blood and she 292 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:22,120 gave. Blood and that's the day. 293 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,040 That the blood results. Came through to say. 294 00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:30,320 She is Peter, the Australians daughter and she got. 295 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:34,480 Her citizenship. Based on a blood test that is 296 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,600 her spreading the ashes of her dad, her her siblings never 297 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:41,000 spread the ashes because they said one day we're going to find 298 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:46,760 another sister. You and I, Sir. 299 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:52,400 Have got nothing in common except our DNA and that your dad 300 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:58,520 and my dad and your dad and my dad and your dad and my dad and 301 00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,400 your dad and my dad and your dad and my dad. 302 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:09,360 Have got the same DNA and by God's grace He has put us all 303 00:16:09,360 --> 00:16:14,160 together in the same room. And even if you just have got 304 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,320 ashes, the Bible says out of the ashes will come beauty. 305 00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:23,840 That girl and her husband now lead the church in Australia. 306 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:26,240 I walked in there on Mother's Day. 307 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,680 My preaching is about the Father, heart of God. 308 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:31,440 I walked in on Mother's Day and they said, will you preach 309 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:32,640 today? I said, I preach about the 310 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:34,520 Father. They said, well, today you're 311 00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:35,800 going to have to preach about the mother. 312 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,320 And I took one scripture in the book of John. 313 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,240 When Jesus was on the cross, he looked down and he said to John, 314 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:50,480 John, your Mother, Mother, your son. 315 00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,440 John writes about the Father 125 times. 316 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,360 Because when you know Jesus, you know the Father, and when you 317 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,160 know the Father you can look after the mother. 318 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:06,079 That's all I could preach on. And I just carried on preaching. 319 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:08,160 And then I saw a man sitting at the back there somewhere. 320 00:17:08,160 --> 00:17:10,839 I said, what's your name, Sir? He said, my name is John. 321 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:13,000 And there's a lady right next to me. 322 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,359 I said, what's your name, man? She said my name is Mary. 323 00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:24,119 God builds the church by his blood, By his blood you have got 324 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,760 to have faith. You say we are so different. 325 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:29,360 We are English and Afrikaans who are young and we are old. 326 00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:31,960 We are rich and we are poor. We are conservative and who are 327 00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:33,920 extravagant. But when you take a blood 328 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:39,200 sample, our DNA is the same. You got faith in the blood. 329 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:41,560 You got to have faith in the blood. 330 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,480 So that when a man stands up here on a Sunday, what gets 331 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,760 elevated is the blood of Christ to a level that we've never seen 332 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:55,120 in this church, I've never seen. But we'll never go back to the 333 00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:58,280 blade again. We keep going back to the blood. 334 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,480 Amen. The second thing we have to have 335 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:04,160 faith for is you've got to walk with God. 336 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,960 Like Enoch, we have to have faith to walk with God, Amen. 337 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,320 Let me show you a picture of yesterday. 338 00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:14,120 So, you know, I went to watch my son play rugby. 339 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,560 So I got up to preach, I preached about Goboiki. 340 00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:23,760 I got in an aeroplane, I traveled 650 kilometers. 341 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,040 I went into the stadium and because I had preached the word 342 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:31,040 of God, this lady, her husband whistled at me. 343 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,520 You heard the story of Goboiki. This is in Australia. 344 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,760 And she had made a sign because somehow the priest that was 345 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:43,840 broadcast from Sydney to Maroochydore got into her heart. 346 00:18:44,360 --> 00:18:46,400 And that's the sign that she said the next picture. 347 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,800 Please. I'm not boasting or bragging. 348 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:53,920 I'm not. I'm not trying to. 349 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,000 I'm not I really. I'm not trying to. 350 00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:59,680 But sometimes you just got to. Stop sometimes. 351 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:05,280 You got to stop and say I love being your dad. 352 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:10,320 I love being your dad. I had faith in my heart because 353 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,160 I knew some people would say, oh there he goes paid for by the 354 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,880 church to get to the other side of the world to watch your son 355 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,160 play. But I know this when I sowed a 356 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,440 seed in the heart of a man and know spread God provided the 357 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:25,120 finances for me to watch you and the Bible says this. 358 00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:28,600 If our fathers on earth, though they are evil, know how to give 359 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,760 good gifts to their children, how? 360 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:37,640 Much more say that. How much more the next picture 361 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:43,200 please? Now I'm in the stadium that's on 362 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,240 TV, sent to me by a man that I met at a wedding, Brandon 363 00:19:46,240 --> 00:19:51,240 Barrows. That man walked up to me and he 364 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,440 said. Rory, you don't. 365 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:56,200 Know who I am, but my father played for the Springboks in 366 00:19:56,200 --> 00:20:00,440 19501951. I'm 68 years old today. 367 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:03,480 And he said my father was a spring back and he was a hero in 368 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,800 South Africa, but he was a very poor dad. 369 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,280 And when you? Preached online, God did 370 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:11,280 something and he said for the last seven days all I've been. 371 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,160 Doing is weeping and he. Came and he held me in a rugby. 372 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,080 Stadium friends, we've got to have faith. 373 00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,600 Not just to worship on Sundays.

He had to take his stuff out. 447 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:56,400 That's Sydney. But you know, friends, I did 448 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,440 this business. I'll finish in 3 minutes. 449 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:05,760 I did this business conference and there's 300 people sitting 450 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:06,240 there. I don't know. 451 00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:08,360 They measure their guys differently to how we do it. 452 00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:09,600 I don't know who gives what here. 453 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,360 I've never looked at the finances. 454 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,640 We haven't had a finance meeting in six years in this church, and 455 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:21,480 people say that's irresponsible. Well, I don't care because I 456 00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:23,120 don't see any budgets in the Bible. 457 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,280 No budget. There's no place of budgeting in 458 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,720 the Bible. Yes, you've got to budget your 459 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,680 own finances. I'm talking about church says if 460 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:34,760 you're in trouble, just give and then God will you'll reap. 461 00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:37,640 And when you when you reap, you give away in a bit. 462 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,760 But we'll do another talk on that some other time. 463 00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,240 So I'm walking, I'm doing a business thing. 464 00:24:44,080 --> 00:24:46,160 I don't know what to say. I haven't taken a single notice 465 00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:49,040 when I'm walking and I see this couple about 75 years old and 466 00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,040 they're sitting at the table. They're very distinguished. 467 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:52,440 I got them to stand and I said ma'am. 468 00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,920 And so I don't know who you are, but I could hear the whole room 469 00:24:54,920 --> 00:25:01,080 go like I thought, wow. I said, I just want to say thank 470 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,200 you. Thank you for building the 471 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,280 church. Thank you for having faith to 472 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,280 build the church. And the man just said, it's a 473 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,680 pleasure. I said, where are you from? 474 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,040 So he said, I'm from Iran, you know, the country that everybody 475 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:17,760 hates because they're supporting the Palestinians. 476 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:21,480 Who that and, and, and now we've got this Palestinian section in 477 00:25:21,480 --> 00:25:23,520 the church and we've got this Israel section. 478 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:29,000 We are Jesus people. So God takes a man from Iran and 479 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:32,960 he sends them to Australia. And a man called Brian and his 480 00:25:32,960 --> 00:25:36,400 wife Bobby planted church. And God says to this Iranian 481 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:39,360 man, you and your wife must support the church. 482 00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:42,640 You must, you must, you must start a coffee shop and and you 483 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:44,680 must support the church. You must journey with them. 484 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:49,360 So I've never done this before in my life. 485 00:25:49,360 --> 00:25:51,720 I hope I don't do too many times, but I knelt in front of 486 00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:54,480 the woman and I said, ma'am, we glorify God. 487 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,280 But I want to honor you today and I want to say thank you for 488 00:25:57,280 --> 00:26:04,360 building the church. They started 4000 coffee shops 489 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,080 as they partnered with the church. 490 00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:12,120 It's called Gloria Jeans. They said when the church was 491 00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:14,560 planted, faith grew in their heart that they would support 492 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:18,360 the church plant. And then I had lunch with their 493 00:26:18,360 --> 00:26:21,320 count that he said whether the business was going well or the 494 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:25,080 business was going badly, they gave money to support the church 495 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,520 because they wanted to partner with the church. 496 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:30,640 And afterwards I said, Sir, how did you do it? 497 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:34,120 He said, all glory to God, Rory, all glory to God. 498 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:42,200 Friends, hundreds of millions of rands have flown through those 499 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:46,640 two people into the establishment of that church 500 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,280 because they got faith. And I said, is it worth it? 501 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:54,440 So he said it is 100% worth it. I will do it all again. 502 00:26:55,160 --> 00:27:02,120 And he said, all glory to God. I went for lunch with their top 503 00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:03,800 20 givers. Can you imagine that? 504 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,520 Who are you? I just know this. 505 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:09,960 The top giver in this church is a single girl that I've never 506 00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:13,320 met. I don't know who she is. 507 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,160 I don't know her name. She's probably here this 508 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,800 morning, but she's given more money to this church than 509 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:22,880 anybody else. And I don't know her name, but 510 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,040 I'm sitting at this meeting of these top givers. 511 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,440 And opposite me is a specialist pediatric nurse. 512 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:33,880 And I said, young lady, she's yeah, she is young. 513 00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:39,360 I said how do you make it onto the top 20 givers of Hillsong 514 00:27:39,360 --> 00:27:41,480 International? Just cheers she. 515 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:47,480 Said she said. I'm not a very fancy person, but 516 00:27:47,520 --> 00:27:50,120 I knew. That if I studied, I'd become a 517 00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:53,880 specialist, and if I became a specialist I'd get more money. 518 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,960 And if I got more money? I would have to. 519 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,240 Choose where I would kept my standard of living. 520 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:02,440 So she said I decided as a young person to live at this level and 521 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:04,480 everything else was going to go to the advancement of the 522 00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:07,720 Kingdom of God. So I don't know if you're a 523 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:11,840 hotshot entrepreneur, you're a highly experienced doctor, or 524 00:28:11,840 --> 00:28:14,440 you're just a single girl who specialized in pediatric 525 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,440 nursing.

You could have faith and my 547 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,720 prayer at this time, Australia, I rented a car. 548 00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:39,720 I never passed one person because everybody just goes at 549 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:51,560 the right speed. I pulled out of Woodlands the 550 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,920 other day flipping this. I hooted me this. 551 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,560 I hooted me flipping.

It's a sterile communist 554 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,600 country. Seriously, if you don't work, 555 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,360 you just get the dole. You don't. 556 00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:14,320 They don't need faith. We need faith to live here. 557 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,920 Faith in the blood of Christ. Faith to see myself and Jay 558 00:30:20,880 --> 00:30:26,360 saved.

We don't even need three CR to 565 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,200 pay for our tickets. We can pay for our own tickets 566 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:54,800 because Abraham is our father. He's in my DNA. 567 00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:04,560 Don't settle down into Sunday mediocre, mediocre suburban 568 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,560 Christianity. Trust God in Jesus name.
