1
00:00:03,500 --> 00:00:08,900
I'm speaking this morning as Tom
said on intimacy and unity. 

2
00:00:10,100 --> 00:00:14,600
There is a war over your 
intimacy with Christ because 

3
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,000
everything flows from that place
of unity. 

4
00:00:18,500 --> 00:00:23,200
It's the place where most truly 
alive, but it is also a costly 

5
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,500
Place. 
Isaiah 55 verse 1 probably come 

6
00:00:27,500 --> 00:00:31,600
up on the screen in a minute. 
Hopefully it stays this come. 

7
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,500
All you who are thirsty. 
Come to the waters and you who 

8
00:00:35,500 --> 00:00:38,100
have no money. 
Come buy and eat. 

9
00:00:38,500 --> 00:00:41,300
Come buy wine. 
And milk without money and 

10
00:00:41,300 --> 00:00:44,700
without cost. 
Why spend money on what is not 

11
00:00:44,700 --> 00:00:48,400
bread and your labor and what 
does not satisfy? 

12
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:54,100
Listen, listen to me and eat 
what is good and you will 

13
00:00:54,100 --> 00:01:00,100
Delight in the richest of fare 
if ear and come to me, listen 

14
00:01:00,100 --> 00:01:04,099
that you may live. 
I was confused when I was 

15
00:01:04,099 --> 00:01:08,500
reading that a while ago because
it says there's no cost, come 

16
00:01:08,900 --> 00:01:12,800
buy, wine and milk without money
without cost and our site Lord. 

17
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,700
But we're here all the time as 
the cost to following you and I 

18
00:01:16,700 --> 00:01:21,200
can personally testify to that. 
So I was asking Lord, what's the

19
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,800
quiet? 
You know, what is the cost? 

20
00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:26,500
And the Amplified version 
answers that question. 

21
00:01:27,700 --> 00:01:31,500
I'll read it in the Amplified 
wait and listen everyone who is 

22
00:01:31,500 --> 00:01:36,600
thirsty, come to the waters and 
he who has no money, come buy 

23
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,400
and eat. 
Yes. 

24
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:44,100
Come buy Priceless, spiritual 
wine and milk without money. 

25
00:01:44,100 --> 00:01:48,800
And without price bracket, 
simply for the self-surrender. 

26
00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:54,000
That accepts the blessing simply
for the self-surrender that 

27
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,700
accepts the blessing. 
That's the cost, that's the 

28
00:01:58,700 --> 00:02:03,700
price self-surrender but we 
don't want to surrender. 

29
00:02:04,700 --> 00:02:08,100
We like to sit on the throne of 
our own lives. 

30
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,100
We don't like not being in 
control. 

31
00:02:11,700 --> 00:02:14,900
Even when being in control means
being in control of our fears, 

32
00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:19,200
Surrendering to God is offensive
to our flesh. 

33
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,500
It sometimes terrifies our 
pledge. 

34
00:02:23,100 --> 00:02:26,600
But surrender is a necessary 
precursor to intimacy. 

35
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:33,400
Intimacy with God, has been a 
struggle for me and major battle

36
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:36,800
for me. 
I'm probably not the only one is

37
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,300
anybody else identify with that 
in the room? 

38
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,700
Thank you. 
Why is intimacy with God? 

39
00:02:45,700 --> 00:02:48,500
A struggle. 
I think there are lots of 

40
00:02:48,500 --> 00:02:51,000
reasons for this, but I've noted
three and I think there might 

41
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,900
have here, they're not working 
this so it is working good. 

42
00:02:56,700 --> 00:02:58,900
Number one relationship with our
own parents. 

43
00:02:58,900 --> 00:03:01,800
I think in particular fathers 
but possibly mothers as well. 

44
00:03:02,300 --> 00:03:07,200
If our own parents mothers, All 
fathers were absent emotionally 

45
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,600
distant, or abusive will have 
difficulty believing that God is

46
00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:15,100
loving and kind and near and 
deeply relational. 

47
00:03:16,700 --> 00:03:21,400
Number two, knowledge thinking 
it's enough to learn about 

48
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,300
Jesus, instead of coming to him.
I'm guilty of that one. 

49
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:29,400
I like learning things, but 
knowing about Jesus is not the 

50
00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:34,400
same as knowing him. 
And I think the western church 

51
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:37,900
Has been a church in pursuit of 
knowledge. 

52
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:41,900
We're drowning in knowledge but 
it has not made us any wiser. 

53
00:03:44,300 --> 00:03:48,600
John 5:39 240 says this you 
search the scriptures because 

54
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:52,500
you think that in them you have 
eternal life and it is they that

55
00:03:52,500 --> 00:03:56,400
bear witness about me and yet 
you refuse to come to me that 

56
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:03,200
you may have life Bad point. 
Trust do I really trust God? 

57
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:04,800
God. 
Do I really trust you? 

58
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,700
if I abandon myself to you, when
you let me down in that place of

59
00:04:09,700 --> 00:04:15,200
vulnerability, and I think often
our lack of trust comes from 

60
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:19,500
comes from places of trauma. 
Shame rejection, unhealed, 

61
00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:22,800
wounds broken places within us 
where we work. 

62
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:27,700
So hard to protect ourselves and
we'd rather keep those places 

63
00:04:27,700 --> 00:04:31,400
hidden and make ourselves 
vulnerable to Jesus. 

64
00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:36,600
And to other people last year, I
had about six weeks of 

65
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:40,600
counseling and one of the weeks 
I had confessed to my counselor 

66
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,900
that I really struggled Bray. 
And she said it's not just 

67
00:04:44,900 --> 00:04:47,200
words. 
He said God looks at your heart 

68
00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:49,700
too and I said that's the 
problem. 

69
00:04:49,700 --> 00:04:54,000
My heart is numb and she looked 
at me and she said that's 

70
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,900
trauma. 
I thought really, I just thought

71
00:04:57,900 --> 00:05:02,300
I was cold hearted my husband's 
husband's laughing. 

72
00:05:02,700 --> 00:05:06,100
I mean that is what Satan wanted
me to think you accuse her. 

73
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,300
Oh you just didn't you just that
you never be there to never be 

74
00:05:09,300 --> 00:05:11,000
there. 
You're not a proper Christian. 

75
00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:15,400
Not like all of them it can name
any Etc. 

76
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:19,600
So I went away did a bit of 
research bought the books 

77
00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:24,300
because I like to learn things. 
What some books on trauma and I 

78
00:05:24,308 --> 00:05:28,600
thought, gosh, she's right and 
the lord gave me a picture and 

79
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:34,000
it was a picture of a scar. 
It was sitting over my soul, a 

80
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,600
big fat cigar and it was numb, 
and I knew that it was badly 

81
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:43,300
healed trauma where things had 
not been addressed they had just

82
00:05:43,300 --> 00:05:49,600
been stuffed down. and at the 
beginning of this year, Nina had

83
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,000
a word for me. 
Many of you will know Nina burn 

84
00:05:52,900 --> 00:05:56,400
she and Marie Hughes Poli. 
The attic company with me. 

85
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,100
So anyway, Nina had had a word 
for me at the beginning of the 

86
00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:04,400
year and she said, Jesus is 
saying to you talitha koum me. 

87
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:10,100
So before I carry on, I'm just 
going to read the scripture or 

88
00:06:10,100 --> 00:06:14,500
context. 
Their Mark 5 verses 21 to 24, 

89
00:06:14,900 --> 00:06:20,700
verses 35:43 when Jesus had 
again crossed over by boat to 

90
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:23,600
the other side of the lake. 
A large crowd gathered around 

91
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:27,200
him while he was by the lake. 
Then one of the synagogue 

92
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,800
Leaders name gyrus. 
Okay. 

93
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,200
My, when he saw Jesus, he fell 
at his feet. 

94
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,200
He pleaded earnestly with him. 
My little daughter is dying, 

95
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:38,200
please come and put your hands 
on her so that she will be 

96
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,600
healed. 
And then they Jesus went with 

97
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,400
him picking up at verse 35. 
So the interim was the healing 

98
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,500
of the woman with the issue of 
blood but he makes it to gyrus 

99
00:06:47,500 --> 00:06:50,100
his house while Jesus was still 
speaking. 

100
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:53,500
Some people came from the house 
of gyrus to synagogue leader. 

101
00:06:54,100 --> 00:06:56,700
Your daughter is dead. 
And they said, why bother the 

102
00:06:56,700 --> 00:07:00,700
teacher any more overhearing, 
what they said, Jesus told him, 

103
00:07:01,100 --> 00:07:04,300
don't be afraid, just believe he
did not. 

104
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:07,300
Let anyone follow him, except 
Peter James and John. 

105
00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:10,500
The brother of James when they 
came to the home of the 

106
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:14,000
synagogue leader, Jesus thought 
a commotion with people crying 

107
00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:17,100
and wailing loudly. 
He went in and said to them. 

108
00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:19,400
Why all this commotion and 
wailing? 

109
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,900
The child is not dead, but 
asleep, but they laughed at him 

110
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,100
other translations. 
Inside. 

111
00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:30,300
I did, they mocked him after? 
He put them all out. 

112
00:07:30,300 --> 00:07:33,300
He took the child's father and 
mother and the disciples who 

113
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:36,000
were with him and went in where 
the child was. 

114
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:39,900
He took her by the hand and he 
said to her, tell Leaf economy. 

115
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,700
Which means little girl, I say 
to you get up immediately, the 

116
00:07:44,708 --> 00:07:47,100
girl stood up and began to walk 
around. 

117
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:52,200
She was 12 years old at this, 
they were completely astonished,

118
00:07:52,500 --> 00:07:56,400
he gave strict orders not to let
anyone know about About this and

119
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:00,400
he told them to give her 
something to eat and Nina said 

120
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,100
to me, Jesus is going to 
minister to you as a little 

121
00:08:03,100 --> 00:08:05,300
girl. 
Well things have died and not 

122
00:08:05,300 --> 00:08:08,400
being able to grow up. 
He is saying, Charlie / who me? 

123
00:08:09,300 --> 00:08:13,700
And this word resonated so 
deeply with me and I immediately

124
00:08:13,700 --> 00:08:18,100
saw that scar again. 
But this time I saw that it was 

125
00:08:18,100 --> 00:08:22,100
sitting on top of a burial 
mound, but I've been buried 

126
00:08:22,100 --> 00:08:26,100
underneath badly healed trauma. 
In shame. 

127
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,100
Now, you know when when the Lord
begins to move things, don't 

128
00:08:33,100 --> 00:08:37,600
always happen instantaneously 
and we'd like them to, that's 

129
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:41,700
not often the way how it works. 
He invites us into a process and

130
00:08:41,700 --> 00:08:44,900
a journey with him and he holds 
our hand as we walk. 

131
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,600
So, in this place now, armed 
with imagery and an 

132
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,900
understanding of what the Holy 
Spirit was doing in my life. 

133
00:08:51,900 --> 00:08:56,700
I began to cry out for intimacy,
but I would know his presence 

134
00:08:56,900 --> 00:08:59,100
where before there had just been
numbness. 

135
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,600
And as time went on, I got 
specific, I said, Lord, I want 

136
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,800
the gift of intimacy for my 
birthday. 

137
00:09:05,300 --> 00:09:07,400
She can do that. 
You can ask Jesus for a birthday

138
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,600
present. 
And I know we could, you know, 

139
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,900
possibly debate the Theology of 
the gift of intimacy. 

140
00:09:13,900 --> 00:09:16,900
You won't find it in the 
Charisma gifts, but I was what I

141
00:09:16,900 --> 00:09:21,300
was asking for was just to know,
Jesus more deeply in those numb 

142
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:25,600
places of my soul and my heart. 
Anyway, my birthday came and 

143
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,200
went beginning of April, had an 
amazing day two. 

144
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,800
Amazing days with my family 
because birthdays can't just 

145
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:36,300
last for one day anymore. 
Absolutely family, really 

146
00:09:36,300 --> 00:09:40,100
spoiled me. 
But no gift from the Lord, but I

147
00:09:40,108 --> 00:09:43,800
knew exactly why I wanted the 
gift of intimacy. 

148
00:09:44,100 --> 00:09:47,400
But I was too busy with birthday
things to really get before the 

149
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,600
Lord. 
I wanted the blessing but I 

150
00:09:51,608 --> 00:09:54,200
didn't make time to do the 
self-surrender that accepts the 

151
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,700
blessing. 
The two days after my birthday, 

152
00:09:57,700 --> 00:09:59,200
I went for a long walk with 
Jesus. 

153
00:09:59,700 --> 00:10:03,200
And I repented for my business 
and I asked him about my gear, 

154
00:10:04,100 --> 00:10:06,800
and he's so gracious. 
Jesus, it doesn't say well, you 

155
00:10:06,808 --> 00:10:08,700
weren't there on your birthday. 
So that's it. 

156
00:10:09,300 --> 00:10:12,900
You know, he came to me and he 
handed me a beautiful box, and I

157
00:10:12,900 --> 00:10:17,100
opened it up, and it was a 
pressure and it was shimmering 

158
00:10:17,100 --> 00:10:20,000
that almost translucent with 
this holographic. 

159
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:24,200
Quality to it, like, like, it 
was just a woven into this 

160
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:29,300
fabric where Deep truths and 
unrevealed Mysteries, such a 

161
00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:34,000
beautiful thing. 
And I remember thinking ah, this

162
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:41,700
what intimacy looks interesting 
Some of you will probably know 

163
00:10:41,700 --> 00:10:45,900
that the Hebrew word for brash. 
All this Talent, literally means

164
00:10:45,900 --> 00:10:49,600
little tent. 
So when I got home, I put on my 

165
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,600
prayer, shawl in the spirit, 
under my little tent, and I had 

166
00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,400
the most beautiful time in 
prayer, such deep connection. 

167
00:10:57,500 --> 00:10:59,900
And in that place, I was 
reminded of something, my friend

168
00:10:59,900 --> 00:11:06,800
Sally had told me that, the 
permanent of talent is Talisa I 

169
00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,700
told you last time disclaimer, I
might cry. 

170
00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:13,900
So one way to interpret. 
Jesus's words tell he's the COO 

171
00:11:13,900 --> 00:11:17,200
me, his little girl, under the 
pressure on the rise. 

172
00:11:21,100 --> 00:11:25,000
He was calling me out of the 
burial place of numbness into 

173
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,200
felt intimacy with him. 
I always find it. 

174
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:34,000
So beautiful, how the Lord joins
up, our little pieces of 

175
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,900
Revelation and one glorious 
narrative. 

176
00:11:38,700 --> 00:11:40,900
But, you know something else 
struck me in that place of 

177
00:11:40,900 --> 00:11:45,900
prayer, I was so aware that I 
was under my prayer shawl, but I

178
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:51,200
was also, I became also really 
aware that at the same time that

179
00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,000
I was under my pressure. 
But I was also under a tiny 

180
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:59,100
piece of Jesus pressure that he 
has spread over all believers. 

181
00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:03,500
And the Lord took me to the 
prayer of Jesus in John 17, 

182
00:12:03,900 --> 00:12:07,200
where he prays for all other 
believers and are we this 

183
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,900
portion? 
I pray also for those who will 

184
00:12:09,900 --> 00:12:13,300
believe in me through their 
message, but all of them may be 

185
00:12:13,300 --> 00:12:15,600
one. 
Father, just as you are in me 

186
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,700
and I am in. 
You may they also be in us so 

187
00:12:19,700 --> 00:12:22,900
that the world may believe that 
you have sent me. 

188
00:12:23,900 --> 00:12:27,800
I have given them the glory that
you gave me that they may be 

189
00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,100
one. 
As we are one i in them and you 

190
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:35,400
in me so that they may be 
brought to complete Unity. 

191
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:40,800
Then the world will know that 
you sent me and loved me and 

192
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:43,000
loved them. 
Even as you have loved me, 

193
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:47,600
father, I want those, you have 
given me to be with me where I 

194
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:51,800
am and to see my glory, the 
glory, you have given me Because

195
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:54,500
You Loved Me. 
Before the creation of the 

196
00:12:54,500 --> 00:12:59,000
world. 
This is amazing in these five 

197
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,900
short verses where Jesus prays 
for all believers. 

198
00:13:01,900 --> 00:13:04,600
As many things you could have 
prayed for, but what does he 

199
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:10,700
praying for Oneness and unity 
over and over he prays for it 

200
00:13:11,100 --> 00:13:13,800
and it is clearly very 
important. 

201
00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:18,200
And I saw in this moment of 
Revelation the degree to which 

202
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,500
intimacy and unity are 
intrinsically connected. 

203
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:27,700
And I knew that even as I was 
uniquely held in, Seen and known

204
00:13:27,900 --> 00:13:32,900
under my personal prayer shawl. 
I was also joined with every 

205
00:13:32,900 --> 00:13:37,700
other believer in Christ Jesus 
in their position of intimacy. 

206
00:13:39,500 --> 00:13:44,500
Windex. 
And I saw how vital intimacy. 

207
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:50,200
I saw how vital Unity is but all
of them, maybe one but they may 

208
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:55,500
be brought to complete Unity. 
Then then the world will believe

209
00:13:55,700 --> 00:13:59,100
you have sent me. 
Then the world will know that 

210
00:13:59,100 --> 00:14:03,200
you sent me and have loved them 
even as you have loved me. 

211
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,800
Unity is a sign to an 
unbelieving world. 

212
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,500
But what is Unity? 
Well I can tell you what. 

213
00:14:12,500 --> 00:14:15,600
It isn't. 
It isn't intellectual agreement.

214
00:14:16,700 --> 00:14:19,800
It isn't tolerance masquerading 
as love. 

215
00:14:20,700 --> 00:14:24,200
It isn't interface or all paths,
lead to God. 

216
00:14:25,300 --> 00:14:29,000
There are many counterfeits to 
genuine unity in this day. 

217
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,300
The Hebrew word for Unity has 
occurred, ecch ad? 

218
00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,200
It does not mean intellectual 
assent. 

219
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:43,000
It means Oneness with God, in 
spirit, The word echoed is 

220
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:47,100
really interesting. 
It means one, but made up of 

221
00:14:47,100 --> 00:14:50,300
more than one part. 
A compound Unity. 

222
00:14:51,100 --> 00:14:53,200
There is another word for want 
in the Bible. 

223
00:14:53,300 --> 00:15:00,300
Yeah, khed why ACH ID, which 
means one and only Deuteronomy 

224
00:15:00,300 --> 00:15:07,000
6:4, the Shema hear o Israel. 
The Lord our God is one God. 

225
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:12,400
You would think that word 411 
guard would be. 

226
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,800
Yeah, khed. 
He is the one and only there is 

227
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:20,100
no one like him, but it isn't. 
It's occurred, he is one but he 

228
00:15:20,100 --> 00:15:24,400
has separate parts joined in 
total and complete Oneness. 

229
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:30,700
Father, son, Holy Spirit, the 
Triune God and it strikes me as 

230
00:15:30,700 --> 00:15:34,500
more than a little bit 
mind-blowing that we are invited

231
00:15:34,500 --> 00:15:38,600
into this Oneness. 
We are invited to put our feet, 

232
00:15:39,300 --> 00:15:44,000
On the soil of Deuteronomy 6:4, 
you know, when I'd read that 

233
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,800
scripture, previously, I'd 
always thought God is other. 

234
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,400
He's over there somewhere, he's 
distant. 

235
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,900
But he's inviting us to come and
abide with him. 

236
00:15:54,900 --> 00:15:59,200
In that scripture, he's inviting
us into that Oneness. 

237
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,900
The Lord, our God is one, God 
were invited into that Wonders 

238
00:16:04,900 --> 00:16:08,600
that all of them may be one, 
even as we are one and that they

239
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:13,100
may be in US. 
So when the Bible speaks about 

240
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:17,900
Oneness and unity, it is, first 
and foremost, me as an 

241
00:16:17,900 --> 00:16:21,600
individual coming into Oneness 
and unity with God. 

242
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:28,500
It's you coming into Oneness and
unity with God, it is vertical. 

243
00:16:28,500 --> 00:16:33,300
Before it is horizontal, we try 
and do the horizontal bit, don't

244
00:16:33,700 --> 00:16:36,500
we try to rub along together, 
you know? 

245
00:16:36,500 --> 00:16:39,000
But this is more than a 
Community Club of like-minded 

246
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:42,200
people. 
We're not here to just gather 

247
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,500
around. 
Common interests are not here. 

248
00:16:44,900 --> 00:16:47,200
Being an echo chamber of 
ideologies. 

249
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,400
Who remembers it? 
Wasn't long ago, couple of 

250
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:55,400
months ago, Revival Sunday. 
What I was, what we call it in 

251
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,200
our house. 
It was a Sunday before we went 

252
00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:01,200
to Services, where church just 
went on, it was amazing. 

253
00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:06,400
I'm sure quite a few of you were
here and all my husband on the 

254
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,300
way home. 
He said to me he said I just 

255
00:17:09,300 --> 00:17:13,900
felt so intimately connected 
with everybody around me and we 

256
00:17:13,900 --> 00:17:16,800
were laughing cause we were 
like, that's not you, then 

257
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,099
probably pull his an introvert. 
He doesn't you're not going to 

258
00:17:19,108 --> 00:17:22,400
find him at the door hugging all
the People, that's not who he 

259
00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:24,900
is. 
So we knew we knew this is this 

260
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:28,900
is Supernatural. 
I've got a friend called Colleen

261
00:17:28,900 --> 00:17:32,100
who I can only describe as a 
stupa CO a series of prophet who

262
00:17:32,100 --> 00:17:36,000
sees into the spirit realm and 
she sees incredibly clear than 

263
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,700
Veil for her is very thin. 
And she has done an enormous 

264
00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:43,200
amount of biblical study, and 
research to make sense of what 

265
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,000
she sees. 
And the prophetic company had a 

266
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,200
zoom call with her. 
So she could teach us about 

267
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,100
angels. 
I don't know. 

268
00:17:50,100 --> 00:17:52,400
It seemed cool. 
She spoke about the off and them

269
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:56,200
brains Angels. 
Many scholars believe they are 

270
00:17:56,300 --> 00:17:58,100
indeed a separate class of 
angels. 

271
00:17:58,100 --> 00:18:00,800
You got the seraphim cherubim or
phanom. 

272
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:04,500
They are angels who help guard 
the Throne of God. 

273
00:18:05,300 --> 00:18:08,100
Indeed, Angels, who possibly are
responsible to move the Throne 

274
00:18:08,100 --> 00:18:09,900
of God. 
They're the wheels of his 

275
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:14,500
Chariot and they're described as
Wheels within wheels will often 

276
00:18:14,500 --> 00:18:17,700
m is Hebrew for wheel. 
It'll come up on the screen. 

277
00:18:17,700 --> 00:18:21,900
I'm not going to read it. 
But Colleen said that, what 

278
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:24,600
these angels look like to her in
the spirit. 

279
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:29,100
She saw Wheels within Wheels. 
Moving over a particular 

280
00:18:29,100 --> 00:18:32,900
congregation and she said they 
were spinning and moving but it 

281
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:36,900
was like parts of them were 
coming down and descending and 

282
00:18:36,900 --> 00:18:41,000
resting on people and she said 
it looked at her like feathers 

283
00:18:41,100 --> 00:18:44,300
were coming to rest on people 
and then they would ask send 

284
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:47,200
again and these wheels within 
Wheels would carry on moving. 

285
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,400
But she said, what that did the 
act of that in the congregation 

286
00:18:52,500 --> 00:18:57,600
was this incredible sense of 
Oneness and unity and intimacy. 

287
00:18:59,300 --> 00:19:01,800
I believe that that was what 
Paul is experiencing and I don't

288
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,400
believe he was the only one. 
I know where I mentioned at am 

289
00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,600
wherever you said. 
The same thing. 

290
00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,700
I think others were experiencing
the same thing too. 

291
00:19:10,100 --> 00:19:12,700
And I believe this is a 
foretaste of what we are. 

292
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:14,500
The day is that we're stepping 
into. 

293
00:19:16,300 --> 00:19:19,300
Little bit of context around the
feathers because if people are 

294
00:19:19,300 --> 00:19:21,900
seeing feathers in church, 
particularly actual feathers, I 

295
00:19:21,908 --> 00:19:24,600
know, you know, I've heard 
stories, I'm always like, where 

296
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,600
is that in the word of God? 
I want to know where it is, in 

297
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,500
the word, in numbers 15 God. 
Gave Moses instructions on how 

298
00:19:32,500 --> 00:19:37,200
to make prayer shawls numbers. 
1538 speak to the Israelites and

299
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:40,900
say to them throughout the 
generations to come, you are to 

300
00:19:40,900 --> 00:19:44,400
make tassels on the corners of 
your garments with a blue. 

301
00:19:44,900 --> 00:19:50,200

you will find Refuge Malachi

306

00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:34,300
Jesus intercession for us. 
We covered with his pressure 

312
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,300
were covered with his wings and 
feathers, and we are brought 

313
00:20:38,300 --> 00:20:42,700
into Oneness with the Triune 
God, and with each other and it 

314
00:20:42,700 --> 00:20:45,500
is Supernatural, is not obvious 
realm. 

315
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:52,000
You can't manufacture this 
Intimacy Unity Oneness and 

316
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:55,100
belonging. 
This is the atmosphere of 

317
00:20:55,100 --> 00:20:57,600
Heaven. 
This is the atmosphere of the 

318
00:20:57,600 --> 00:21:01,000
throne room. 
And I believe that those Thrones

319
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:05,400
angels that Colleen saw all felt
that Tam felt other people here 

320
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,500
may have seen that, too. 
I believe that they are living 

321
00:21:08,500 --> 00:21:12,800
symbols of this one knows where 
we're covered under the wings 

322
00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:18,200
and the feathers of Jesus. 
And as such healing in, this 

323
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:23,900
basement has protection refuge 
and rest in this place of 

324
00:21:23,900 --> 00:21:27,000
intimacy. 
My one must have got. 

325
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,200
Yovan. 
This is how true Unity is 

326
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,400
creative. 
It's how we become one together.

327
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:39,600
It is one of the ways Jesus 
builds his church, who our 

328
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:44,000
individual and corporate 
pressing into Unity knowing him 

329
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,600
better. 
We are the building blocks of 

330
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:51,600
the church livingstone's fit 
together so that the atmosphere 

331
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,500
of the throne room, the 
atmosphere of Heaven can be 

332
00:21:54,500 --> 00:22:01,100
manifested in the Earth. 
I mentioned in my last talk, but

333
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:04,600
for too long, the church has 
been building with the wrong 

334
00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:08,000
materials. 
We've looked to the world for 

335
00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:12,400
inspiration and we've ended up 
creating babbles building 

336
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:18,300
structures that elevate, man. 
But glorified religion, politics

337
00:22:18,300 --> 00:22:21,800
and cultural ideologies. 
And we've been through 

338
00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,300
tremendous shaking, haven't we? 
I think we can all say yes. 

339
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:29,900
Been through tremendous shaking 
individually and corporately and

340
00:22:29,900 --> 00:22:34,000
as a result of all that shaking 
things are falling down and the 

341
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,600
things are falling apart. 
Barely a week goes by, but you 

342
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,900
don't hear of another church 
that is under scrutiny or 

343
00:22:42,900 --> 00:22:47,900
crumbling. 
Golden your Roth remember 

344
00:22:47,900 --> 00:22:54,300
Massey? 
God is dismantling Bibles in 

345
00:22:54,300 --> 00:22:58,500
this day and he's building his 
church in his way. 

346
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:02,900
Psalm 127, verse 1. 
Unless the Lord builds the 

347
00:23:02,900 --> 00:23:08,100
house, they who Labour labor in 
vain, and He is building with 

348
00:23:08,100 --> 00:23:10,100
you. 
And I, he is building with the 

349
00:23:10,100 --> 00:23:16,000
fabric of our intimacy. 
God is tearing down structures 

350
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:19,800
that do not bring glory to his 
name and I'm not pointing 

351
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:21,300
fingers. 
I've got structures on the 

352
00:23:21,300 --> 00:23:25,900
inside of me that need to come 
down structures, created with 

353
00:23:25,900 --> 00:23:29,800
the worldly fabric of 
self-righteousness, Pride doubt,

354
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:34,700
and fear structures that keep me
from intimacy with Jesus and 

355
00:23:34,700 --> 00:23:38,500
from Oneness with him, we have 
built babbles within us. 

356
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,900
Structures and Towers. 
But we strive to attain God 

357
00:23:42,900 --> 00:23:46,300
likeness without bar and it's 
Rebellion. 

358
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:50,900
A few years ago now, I found 
myself praying over and over the

359
00:23:50,900 --> 00:23:53,900
same prayer every day, it would 
just come up. 

360
00:23:54,300 --> 00:23:57,000
I prayed it so often I gave a 
name, I called her, The 

361
00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:01,300
Architects prayer and I would 
say Lord, I give you permission 

362
00:24:01,300 --> 00:24:04,100
to come and restructure me on 
the inside. 

363
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,700
I come and give you permission 
to knock down walls song. 

364
00:24:07,700 --> 00:24:11,200
We sang. 
Break our balls down. 

365
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,600
I'd say, open up the rooms Lord 
that are filled with old stuff, 

366
00:24:15,700 --> 00:24:20,200
do a loft conversion, open up 
the windows, do an extension, 

367
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,400
repaint, the walls or do 
whatever you have to do on the 

368
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:26,700
inside of me so that your glory 
can come and really. 

369
00:24:26,700 --> 00:24:30,400
What I was saying was Lord 
wherever Babel exists within me,

370
00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,400
tear it down. 
And as I was praying, this 

371
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,200
prayer the Lord began to speak 
to me about the Tabernacle in 

372
00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:41,400
the wilderness where Moses was 
given specific instructions to 

373
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:45,700
build this resting place for God
in the Earth at specific period 

374
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:49,700
of Jewish history. 
Everything was exact 

375
00:24:50,100 --> 00:24:55,000
measurements colors materials 
designs, who was to make it, 

376
00:24:56,000 --> 00:25:00,700
Everything was exact, why did it
have to be so specific? 

377
00:25:01,300 --> 00:25:05,700
Because what Moses created in 
the desert was an exact copy of 

378
00:25:05,700 --> 00:25:09,200
the Heavenly reality, it was 
made to a Heavenly plan, 

379
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,400
Heavenly blueprint it was the 
opposite of Babel. 

380
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,300
You also are a tabernacle, you 
are every single one. 

381
00:25:20,700 --> 00:25:25,600
If you belong to Jesus, you are 
a tabernacle, a little tent in 

382
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:28,900
the wilderness with a holy of 
holies within you. 

383
00:25:30,100 --> 00:25:34,600
He's as Tabernacles with you in 
this place and it is from this 

384
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,900
place of intimacy and abiding 
with him that he will build his 

385
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:43,100
church in you and through you. 
In accordance with the Heavenly 

386
00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:48,900
blueprint for your life. 
A desire of my heart. 

387
00:25:48,900 --> 00:25:52,100
A deep desire of my heart is 
that my walk, my 

388
00:25:52,100 --> 00:25:56,600
accomplishments, my life, will 
mirror the Heavenly blueprint, 

389
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,700
but what I build with my life 
will last for eternity and not 

390
00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:04,600
be burned up like, straw, and 
Chad, I don't want to build my 

391
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:08,000
own stuff. 
I want to build what he has 

392
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:12,300
given me to build in the other 
want to carry my portion of the 

393
00:26:12,300 --> 00:26:14,200
revelation of Jesus Christ in 
the earth. 

394
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:19,300
And we all have one And for us 
to walk in our calling and our 

395
00:26:19,300 --> 00:26:22,100
destiny. 
It's not just for us it's not 

396
00:26:22,100 --> 00:26:24,200
just that I get to live my best 
life. 

397
00:26:25,700 --> 00:26:28,000
I do believe God wants us to 
live our best life. 

398
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:32,800
He has plans for us purposes for
us, good plans, plans to 

399
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:36,700
prosperous and not to harm us. 
The give us a hope and a future,

400
00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,800
but we don't get there without 
the self-surrender, accept the 

401
00:26:40,808 --> 00:26:44,800
blessing. 
We don't find our lives in him 

402
00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:46,700
unless we first prepared to lose
that. 

403
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,600
So the Lord is dismantling 
structures within us and in The 

404
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:55,100
Wider body and he is rebuilding.
Is it uncomfortable? 

405
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:00,600
Yes I've put that in capitals 
with an exclamation mark Mark 

406
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,100
said a couple of weeks ago if 
you're not uncomfortable in your

407
00:27:03,100 --> 00:27:06,200
Christian walk you're probably 
not doing it right? 

408
00:27:07,700 --> 00:27:11,000
And the, ultimate aim of this is
that we walk in our god-given 

409
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,800
identity and its first and 
foremost, a place of being. 

410
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:18,500
It's not a place where we get 
busy doing things for god 

411
00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:23,500
without ever coming to him. 
It's a place of being so one 

412
00:27:23,500 --> 00:27:27,800
with crimes. 
So United with him individually 

413
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:33,500
and corporately, but we become 
Christ in the Earth where he 

414
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:38,200
lives through us So that 
together we can host the glory 

415
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:42,700
of God and the seen realm and so
the world will know who Jesus is

416
00:27:43,100 --> 00:27:44,900
and that he's been sent by his 
father. 

417
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,900
Worship team. 
Could you please make the way 

418
00:27:49,900 --> 00:28:01,800
back? 
And I'd like to ask. 

419
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:11,200
If you could all stand, please. 
I want to go back to talitha 

420
00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:14,500
koum e in finishing. 
It is a great interest and 

421
00:28:14,500 --> 00:28:18,600
importance but the little girl 
in question was 12 years old. 

422
00:28:19,100 --> 00:28:21,900
It was the age when Jewish boys 
and girls were considered to 

423
00:28:21,900 --> 00:28:26,500
become adults in the story. 
Jesus says, to those near give 

424
00:28:26,500 --> 00:28:30,300
her something to eat. 
Not drink, if her something to 

425
00:28:30,300 --> 00:28:33,200
eat because solid food is for 
the mature. 

426
00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:39,400
And the word Nina gave me was 
not just a me it was also a 

427
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:44,400
prophetic word for the church. 
It's a call to rise up into 

428
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,400
maturity into ruling and 
reigning. 

429
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:54,400
And there was on that world 
media were laughing. 

430
00:28:55,700 --> 00:28:59,800
And jeering and mocking the 
church in this day, just like in

431
00:28:59,808 --> 00:29:04,000
the story gyrus is daughter. 
So the church is irrelevant 

432
00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,300
churches obsolete, churches 
dead. 

433
00:29:07,500 --> 00:29:17,600
Jesus is know. she's, And he 
say, no. 

434
00:29:20,500 --> 00:29:34,600
Totally forgot, who me? 
Beloved under the pressure. 

435
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,700
All stand. 
All Rise. 

436
00:29:42,900 --> 00:29:47,100
Yes, Fred his Paschal. 
He covers you with his wings and

437
00:29:47,100 --> 00:29:52,100
feathers. he intercedes for you 
continually at the right hand of

438
00:29:52,100 --> 00:29:58,400
the father and I call you out 
every place you've been buried 

439
00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,800
The trauma shame, I call you 
out. 

440
00:30:05,100 --> 00:30:09,800
From Anger, from apathy, and 
pride, and rejection from 

441
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,900
bitterness, from unforgiveness 
from addictions. 

442
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,700
I call you out this morning. 
I called you back into life, 

443
00:30:19,700 --> 00:30:22,300
come to him. 
That you may have life. 

444
00:30:25,100 --> 00:30:38,800
Beloved of Jesus under the 
pressure rise. intimacy with him

445
00:30:39,300 --> 00:30:46,200
and Oneness with all the saints.
So that the world will know that
