A New Season Luke 4:18 — Mike Bickle

that song she just sang it now it's on the app they'll be on the app right away every song that sang every worship service is added to those three million minutes they're adding more and more every single chunk i could hear that song 20 times in our own now i can holy spirit we love you lord we love what you're doing in our midst we love lord this season that we're in we ask for the grace of heaven to rest upon us that you would visit us individually every need every marriage every relationship and that you would visit us corporately that we would lean into this narrative of what you're emphasizing more and more and that we would get all that we can from you holy spirit in this season help us teach us in jesus name amen well i'm going to jump in and start most of you are aware of this a few of you that are new with us we've just gone with many other people across america and the earth actually been on a 40-day fast at various types of fast for six weeks now it just ended and then we ended with last weekend with chris reed coming and between the six weeks the 40 days and last weekend it is clear that we have shifted and we're in a new season in the lord and we're wanting to process that a number of things have come to light that are very encouraging and the lord's been helping us and so this friday i mean two days ago friday i took about an hour and get put together a bunch of the storyline of what i think is happening i only touched a little bit of it but an hour's worth not a teaching but just a stringing together stories to give our spiritual family a chance to interpret some of the things that i'm observing and others are observing more and more and more and so i have that uh on on our website it's called observations we're in a new season and i'm highlighting uh luke 4 18 the word that chris reed gave us and he'll talk about that in a few moments that's a key thing but this last six weeks yeah seven weeks last weekend so many encouraging things that are surprising us so many things are happening and so we're going to attempt this morning to cover some of those things again mike the message that you gave just two days ago friday is so important to us and i want to encourage you to listen to that message and he has the handout on there to follow along with i'm reminded of a quote from the movie princess bride where i love that i love that guy where aniga montoya says he says that is the degree of let me catch you up there's too much let me summarize so this is our attempt at summarizing just some of the things that the lord is highlighting we like mike mentioned on march 1st entered into a 40-day fast and the holy spirit was emphasizing to us some key passages that we were calling the family conversation if you remember about six weeks or so ago among them was revelation chapter 3 and this desire of jesus the bridegroom who's knocking on the door of the church knocking on the door of our hearts and he's saying open the door to me i want to come in and dine with you and i want to deliver you from this laodicean this lukewarm spirit this spirit of apathy and busyness and fog that comes on our spiritual lives and quenches the joy of relationship and fellowship with the godhead it causes us to be blind toward one another and who we are in christ i mean just many many negative things so we entered into this fast and our one of our main conversations in christ to the lord was lord deliver us from this lay to see in spirit a couple days into the fast mike has an encounter with the lord in his office that he shared publicly and in that encounter he has an open vision and he sees a door open into the realm of glory and this phrase comes to him that he shares with our spiritual family and he's called the lord's calling to us speaking to us he's saying if you open the door to your heart i will open to you the door of my glory if you open the door to my heart i will open the door to my glory and so the lord has emphasized that to us and i am looking at that door as a leader here and as the pastor lee pastor here and i am seeing that not only are we to go there in conversation and i think there will be uh encounters more and more in the days ahead but there are things the lord wants to release through that open door to this spiritual family that are profound and necessary for the days ahead and what is coming i'm going to comment on this this revelation 3 the jesus's message to the laodicean church i believe that many others believe it as well all around the world this is a primary message the lord is speaking to his church i'm talking globally not just america not just kansas city he's saying open the door of your heart i want to dine with you i want you to get gold that i have available to you so the six weeks every week in our leadership meetings and our all our worship leader meetings in our staff meetings our friday night meetings sunday we unpacked that and had conversations on this uh zoom call that you do on wednesday morning the podcast is fantastic a lot of insight has come on revelation 3. and two weeks ago i shared the the open vision that i've had i've only had two open visions in 50 years where i actually saw something eyes open on the wall like a movie screen and and i shared that two weeks ago on sunday morning and it talked about i think i've called the message buying gold because that's what jesus said in revelation 3 buy gold for me and i connected it so we're not going to go into that but for those those of you that said what now what was that two weeks ago it's on the on the website you can follow with that if you want to i have good news for you acts 2 says that the young men see visions mike i've been having lots of dreams that you're a young man having a lot of jobs no no no no no you're only beginning wait a second i had a vision you're the guy with the dream so i'm old and you're young that's right that means i'm the boss now but that means you get to mix up body parts when you give announcements and nobody might hey hey look y'all laughing about the ovary thing listen i wasn't thinking about that now i was thinking yeah right y'all laughing about the overthink the lord's gonna give an ovary to someone and then we're gonna be crying because god loves to heal people and restore that which has been lost and in the name of jesus i ask that you would touch if a woman needs an over that you would touch her in the name of jesus on the web stream or in this room and that you would heal lord that which you love and that that woman would have many children in the name of jesus you know it's just like the lord for that to like literally happen no for real for real we're just being human and messing up but the lord says oh watch this watch this the lord's keeping me very humble good well in this conversation of the upper room this john 13 to 17 again the gold refining in the fire the lord was emphasizing his biblical vision for unity spiritual unity and when jesus prays in john 17 he is insistent that the body of christ is going to come into a spirit of unity that's a prayer that the father is going to answer because jesus prayed it and that unity has far-reaching implications but two quick points we've been whispering about isaiah 19 the restoration of ishmael and isaac and what the lord emphasizes in isaiah 19 a unity that is so powerful and profound that it brings this spirit of oneness and unity and power that's going to touch the middle east that's going to touch jews and arabs and the family of abraham is going to be restored and secondly in our own nation we have such a history of racial strife and tension it's not just the history it's ongoing and during the fast we're emphasizing something that we started many years ago called the malachi project the malachi project highlights black men and women of the faith who have pioneered who have broken through something in the spirit and many many many of those saints we are highlighting them on friday nights and that needs to be strong in our narrative as well as the lord is bringing unity because this congregation and what the lord wants to do in the nations and what the lord wants to do in the church in kansas city isn't this group or that group it is black white many tribes tongues nations the lord is bringing together his spiritual family for such a time as this and we cannot go forward without one another we can't just think well the lord's gonna come here but we don't really care if he moves on the church down there we can't think that anymore that's not the way forward for this people and what the lord is doing in this hour and so we need to be contending for this and highlighting this i'm gonna comment on this on every friday night the last six or seven weeks we've taken a three to five minute segment to tell the story of one of god's anointed servants uh in the black community that have impacted the body of christ and the uh and what's the word sad embarrassed ridiculous something something those put about 10 of those words in there most of the white believers here were unaware of these remarkably anointed servants of the lord because they're black and not in the white storyline thousands saved and healed and many lights were going on saying it's not okay that we're not in the same story together all together yes we've got to get in the same story because there's one head over the body of christ he's got a big family and there are many parts many members and the lord wants us all walking together in unity and power and celebrating and calling forth the giftings that we see in each other not just our own gifting we're really good at contending for that but for the gifting and the fullness of those that are around us and down the road and across the city et cetera et cetera well april 9th april 9th comes that's about 10 days ago on friday and we're highlighting that night in the malachi project william seymour who was one of the key figures of the azusa street revival and it was the 115 year anniversary on that friday and william seymour is here and the lord begins to connect us with chris reed that morning and there's just this unfolding staggering storyline so talk to us about that morning even with chris oh yeah so we're finished the 40 day fast on april 9th 10 days ago on friday and uh chris comes to visit for the first time i had met him about a month earlier in a rick joyner's context in charlotte north carolina at a round table of leaders and rick told me i told a lot of this on friday night and told us i'm not going to go to a ton of detail on it but you can check in with that if you're interested in hearing that story and he said mike you're going to connect with this guy the lord's da da da so i asked him i said hey uh chris could you come we have you know six friday nights for a meeting i didn't tell we're fasting i just said we're having a friday night meetings they were during the fast could you come some time in march you know i was thinking early march he goes i can only come on april 9th that's my first day which was the final day of our fast which ends up cool that was six or eight weeks later i go okay okay because i asked him in february and uh so he shows up april 9th and uh we have a leadership meeting in the morning and my idea is just to get you know a handful of leaders to know him a little bit just his human story and how the lord's touched him and what his family was like and and uh as many of you were here sunday and you were here last friday you saw the remarkable word of knowledge gift that the lord has imparted to him and uses him and and what isaac brought out uh for this morning's the earlier service this morning which i loved and you'll probably say it again that he probably he called out and we had five different meetings with him some three public and two smaller leadership meetings he probably called out a hundred maybe 120 i don't know i didn't count different people and gave such detailed uh information about their life by the holy spirit and so if a hundred get touched we've got about 4 000 people in our entire church family that call this their church family that means almost everyone did not get touched directly but it's still a hundred but what i saw and what we witnessed is how many of us look at this person getting called out and we are so enjoying what's happening in their life it was remar we all went wow we walked out amazing we didn't get a word but wait but my friend i mean it was a life shifting word we were laughing we were crying it was powerful it was provoking and one of the things that just struck my heart so powerfully was the way in which jesus knows my friends better than i do that's a great point i love that and that wasn't a pain point to me that was a point of celebration that he knows all of our stories and people that i've known 10 20 years the lord is telling details through chris through this word of knowledge because he doesn't know any of them he knows none of that about their life and their extended family and the promises of god over their life and i'm sitting over here you know in the different meetings crying and i'm laughing and i am just so struck at how good of a friend jesus is to us and how near he is and how much he is contending for us all because he's touching our friends and our families to come into the fullness of what he has for so just give me 10 seconds on romeo and juliet right here on the romeo and juliet that was powerful i mean it was amazing wasn't it wasn't it let me write down your family name after name issue after issue i mean so many of us were touched by that but that was one of a hundred i mean just your guys family is so powerful and precious to who we are and you know juliet serves on our pastoral team here and the family and randy and their boys and their daughter and no not randy romeo yeah romeo kanha but i mean we've just knowing them and knowing their story the journey that they've been on and coming here from california how the lord connected to the prophetic history and and just the different things and the the health battles and all those different things it was just so sweet and powerful and tender and and it just strikes you in a different way when it's people you know so i asked him in february after i meet him at rick joyner's i say can you come early march preferably on a friday night i can't come to april 9th it just so happens it's the last day of our fast which and the date april 9th becomes significant as the date april 18th today is significant those are the two days that the lord highlighted that i talked about with a bit of detail on friday night which we're only going to barely touch this morning so he comes our our very first meeting on on friday morning and and i have i've understand he has this word of knowledge ministry but i wanted us to just to hear from his heart about his life not minister to us per se but just hey we want to get to know you so he he comes and he sits down and he goes oh my goodness he goes on the way here this morning i heard the the radio announcement that prince philip you know in the uk he died this morning we go oh yeah yeah we heard that too and he goes i don't this is really significant and we're not understanding the significance that he's relating to he says 18 months ago i have a a a time stamped on my phone i took i wrote the prophecy and i and i clicked it you know to where you can see the date and the prophecy he goes the lord told me 18 months ago that when prince philip in england dies it will be a significant day of shifting for the body of christ it's a riddle and dean gives him a riddle right after that and it's like how does that all that connect he goes well here's the riddle the lord gave me he says that when the prince will pass it will be 4 18 at last and he goes i don't get the riddle at all but i know it matters today on this friday morning on this april 9th when the prince will pass 4 18 at last it will be 48 at last and he goes does that mean anything to you and what he doesn't know is that 31 years ago and again i spent 20 minutes on this friday so i'm going to take two minutes on it now without telling you the details 20 31 years ago on april 18th 4 18 today 31 years ago the lord spoke in a dramatic way where thousands of people were a part of this story and witnessed it and were touched by it where the lord said that he was going to establish luke 4 18 and he spoke it in a dramatic way on april which is 4 18. and he spoke it at 4 18 in the afternoon in a way again it'd take 20 minutes to tell the story i don't want to go into that but many people across america were watching that story and they were blown away by it he doesn't know that story because that was something we were talking about 31 years ago and that and so he goes 4 18 i go it means luke 4 18. and it has something to do with april 4 18. and he goes i don't know that story so i tell the story and some of our team have never heard it because again it's a 31 year old story but it is remarkable so i am convinced that on that day april 9th at the end of that 40-day fast luke 4 18 in our world and many other people is going to be highlighted by the lord in a significant way and it was a beginning point because the riddle he got 18 months ago is that when the prince will pass it will be 418 at last and he goes i don't even have a clue i'm almost embarrassed to say it it's so riddle-ish and it but it was very clear to me and so we tell that story and then uh again i i encourage you to hear the thing from friday night it's it's on the it's on our website if you want to hear that story because it's it's relevant but i got emails from all around i told a little bit of it uh even that night april 9th and started getting emails from friends from the old days and going wow this is really real we are entering a new season in the body of christ that luke 4 18 is representative of and that's the famous verse you all know the verse where jesus went into the synagogue at nazareth and he said the spirit of the lord is upon me to anoint me to preach the gospel to the poor to set captives free to heal the brokenhearted to liberate those that are oppressed and on and on and on and our goal isn't to unpack that passage right now but it's the highlight the lord is saying i am highlighting that and when rick i mean and when chris reed said when i got that 18 months ago when when the principle passed it will be 4 18 at last it's like the lord was sighing like a sigh going at last it's the 4 18 season for the body of christ worldwide at last we're ending in because it's always been true for 2000 years we've always been in that season in one way but in an eschatological which is a fancy word for end times but in an end time way an eschatological way the lord is moving and we're declaring this in a more heightened specific observable way according to luke 14 4 18 across the body of christ so this it was a new season on april 9th i mean it really something changed that and then the five meetings we had and the way the lord confirmed different things it goes on and on and on yeah i'm struck by you know chris comes in like mike's saying the meeting gives the 418 word and it was almost like everything that happened after that over the weekend was to convince us to pay attention to the lord's zeal for luke 4 18 to manifest in the body of christ and i don't say that in any way to diminish the profoundly personal powerful words that anyone you know received but there was a corporate word that he gave it was luke 4 18. and it goes back to the story of the keynes paul and anna kane where there was the three-fold confirmation of you know 418 418-418 back in the 90s and the lord has this bizarre strategic poetic way of getting us to pay attention to scriptures that we wouldn't normally pay attention to and the lord was using chris in that way all last weekend where he's talking about luke 4 18 then he gets up he starts talking about acts 2 joel 2 psalm 2 then he comes here on sunday morning and preaches on ephesians 1 and ephesians 3 the apostolic prayers and he's not really in tune with our message and what we're about and what we've been talking about for 20 30 years and i'm asking him in between i'm going cr like for real like you've got to be like listening to tons of our messages and da da da he goes i've listened to growing in prayer for mike and like one other thing like that's it an interview with paul kane yeah and i'm going this is remarkable the lord is sending us people you know i'm thinking of the gifts that he's sending us through dan bohi and chris reed and there are many many many others that he will send it is sending and many are sitting right here in these chairs right here and they're listening on the web stream as well to get us to pay attention to what the spirit is emphasizing right now and i'm looking at this thread that the lord's weaving together the lukewarm church the body of christ the lord says i am going to rescue you and i'm going to get you into that upper room conversation with me to talk to me and and and relate to the trinity and and get in on what i'm talking about and then i'm going to release my power and my anointing in luke 4 18 because as much as you want to rid yourself of the lukewarm spirit it's going to take the power and the anointing of the deliverer jesus to get the church into the next season and get us positioned because that great harvest of souls is coming in the days ahead yeah and there there's so much to unpack and and our goal isn't to unpack it all in one meeting or two or three meetings in a row because as i said friday night i said i can make about 10 observations as to what has happened and what has changed and what's the lord's doing over the last six weeks and ending with that weekend i said but in a 10 years from now we will see 25 implications because there's so many layers that unfold and unfold and unfold as time goes on but we're just aware that we're in a new season i don't mean ihop yes us here in this spirit and foreign church i'm talking about the body of christ our city our nation and talk about the earth the body of christ and the earth we are in a new season in the holy spirit and the phrases and the passages again that he said most of you have been leaning into it for the last six or eight weeks so you know it's the revelation three jesus telling the laodicean church i'm going to rescue you from a compromising spirit of spirit of dullness psalm 2 where king david prophesied that there would be persecution even from the state governments and legislations against the word of god psalm 2 acts 2 an increase of holy spirit power isaiah 19 that would be the one that would be the most unfamiliar with our larger body of christ although a number of us have been tracking with isaiah 19 for some time and i just give you just 45 seconds on it because we're going to spend a lot of time on it in the months and years ahead isaiah 19 very obscure passage to most people but it won't be before long isaiah 19 i'll pull out one verse verse 24 and you could miss it if you read it fast that the lord says when all these things happen his end time purposes he is going to bring into profound unity uh it says israel egypt and assyria and more folks today most people go what's a syria well it was the world power of isaiah's day 700 bc assyria would represent 10 or 12 of the middle eastern countries right now today syria jordan iraq iran you know those kind of nations the lord is going to do a work in the days to come where he's going to take the arab communities the middle east islamic nations egypt the persians in iran and israel and bring them into a profound unity together and the whole earth is going to witness it and the john 17 that they will be one as i and the father are one the epicenter of that reconciliation on a global stage is going to be seen in the middle east god's plan is that israel unbelieving israel that god is going to use arab people from arab heritage muslims nations egypt egypt arab islamic persian he's going to cause them to reveal the god of israel to unbelieving israel and unbelieving israel will love them and they will be one like the father and the son and the whole earth is going to be shocked because what's happening is that the family of abraham abraham and isaac isaac and ishmael esau and jacob all their family lines they're going to be healed on a global stage for the whole body of christ i mean in america the intense racial conflict with black and white in other places it's in asia different groups asia and africa different places africa every every part of the earth has its most intense nothing in history is as intense as the children of the sons of ishmael and isaac arabs egyptians and jews and this locked in war of hatred for 4 000 years no racial conflict is more intense than that one or longer and yet that is the one the lord is going to use and he's going to take the body of christ and we're all going to be in the story together in a way we'll tell some other time but isaiah 19 is a critical part of john 17. imagine god healing the family of abraham i mean ishmael and isaac and jacob and esau their children revealing the god of israel to israel to unbelieving israel and then they become best friends and the whole earth is shocked at it and we're all a part of that story but that's too much to cover in a little session like this but we're going to unpack that one so let's just take a minute okay i feel and maybe some of you feel like we're drinking from a fire hose well here's the problem he is a fire hose it's not even there's so many layers to these stories but we're in it together and we got time to unpack it but it will take weeks and weeks and months and months because while we're doing it we want to be walking out the sermon on the mount with each other winning our neighbors to the lord raising godly families discipling new believers building healthy churches we're doing all of that in the context of these broader story lines that are unfolding and we're doing it with many other believers because one of the words the lord highlighted is he's raising up an international family of affection that it's not this group or that group it's all of us together moving forward it's a beautiful time of history to be alive although it's the most difficult challenging time of history the years ahead but it will be the most dynamic glorious time in the spirit the time ahead so wherever the lord has you this is a pastoral point for us individually wherever the lord has you wherever the grace of the lord is touching your life sometimes that grace is a is a challenging part of our life that's coming to the surface because when the spirit begins to move on a people all sorts of things come to the surface and so some of you might be feeling the fog of i'm trying to track with isaiah 19 and john 17 and psalm 2 and luke 4 8 what is going on right now all i know is my family is falling apart and my kids don't know god and so am i even a part of the family the spiritual family am i even a part of what the lord is doing and i want to assure you that you are because when the lord drops the rock so to speak into the pond it creates waves things come to the surface people get pushed in people get pushed out i mean that's the way it is and we're entering like mike is saying into this unique season where the lord has indicated we are on the on-ramp or the off-ramp or whatever you want to call it into a new trajectory as a spiritual family and i want to urge you to not count yourself out i want to urge you to not disqualify yourself not because of something that the lord is saying but just you have a broken heart you just you feel strained you feel like ah my life's a wreck i'm a wreck i'm not even a part of what the lord is doing right now i want to say no to that that is a lie of the enemy that is trying to take you out you are a part of the family you are in the story and the lord is going to in his own way bring all of us into participating with this story so you don't have to get all the messages that they don't have to be all touching your heart at the same time i want to encourage you wherever you're at just say yes to the grace of god maybe he still has you back in revelation 3 and lukewarmness and walking through the pain and the discomfort or the arguing with god about that just stay there maybe you're in psalm 2 just stay there maybe you're concerned over your life just stay there stay where the lord has you get friends in the fight in the conversation with you and see what the lord does as he releases his grace to all of us both individually and corporately one thing i'm very very aware of is that the enemy is raging and attacking the body of christ i i mean this you know how do i know 2000 years the whole history but i believe it's happening on a global level like no other time in history there are more godly people their marriages are being attacked their children are being attacked their ministries their businesses in you know just my interaction with leaders in different streams almost all of them are saying the same thing we've never seen such an intensity as this our people are our more children of godly families are getting hit hard business has hit hard ministries hit hard but i want to assure you this that the enemy is ramping up his rage and attack but he's going to fall right into the lord's trap here's the lord's ambush yeah the lord's going to turn this whole thing around and he's going to show uh the earth the trophy case of the trophy case is the he's making the body of christ and the earth trophies of grace that the unbelieving nations i mean a billion souls are coming in the great end time harvest they're going to look at our lives and the recovery when against all odds we could not recover in any of those 10 areas whether it's a healing a marriage a child a finance a on and on and on an area that you're stuck there's going to be sudden supernatural reversals where the people that have been delivered they're not strutting hey i'm the man of god i'm the woman with power they're going oh i'm liberated but i'm so grateful i didn't deserve to get liberated there was no way this could happen and he's going to show the earth the trophy of the grace of god in restored lives and families come on so when you're in the process of the the hit and the attack and the restoration isn't there it just hang in there hang in there this story it's a 50 chapter book you're on chapter three you're in chapter six you're on chapter eight yeah about my children they're on chapter two there's many chapters my business my ministry my heart and god i've never been so stuck that's one chapter you're in right now the book is not over because jesus is smiling he was watch this i'm going to shock the nations by the rescue of the body of christ and make them humble servants that bring the nations in luke 4 18. whenever the lord begins to move in an unusual way and i think we're headed more and more into that season obviously last weekend was very unusual compared to what i'm normally used to whenever the lord does that he's touching the grace on a particular community in connection to their assignment what do i mean by that i mean that the particular assignment that the lord has given this spiritual family is to keep and maintain a 24-hour prayer sanctuary where we minister to the heart of god and we agree with his purposes that all of these things that are in the bible would be unleashed on the body of christ and unleashed on the nations of the earth and so i want to encourage us that in times unusual times where the spirit begins to move that we not get into a heart posture of just kind of well i guess it's coming i guess it's here and we just kind of sit back but no we lean into the grace of god around our primary assignment though we have secondary tertiary whatever assignments but that we lean into our primary assignment which as a people corporately is to contend in the place of prayer so when i hear luke 4 18 and the prince shall pass and the anna cain and the da da da da da our heart needs to lean into that and go lord release the spirit of the sovereign lord you have anointed jesus for such a time as this you've anointed the body of christ and he stands as the anointed one over this city and over the body of christ in the nations and he is going to release the power on the gospel the power for healing the power to set captives free the power to bring liberty the power to restore that which the enemy has stolen and that we as a people as things continue to escalate as the anointing increases which it will that we lean into the place of prayer because that is the corporate grace upon the spiritual family to contend for these things before him yeah and that's a corporate grace on us many people in this spiritual family this community they're saying that's not my number one thing and i agree with that because many of you you have a primary assignment and it isn't the prayer room but the fact that god's put you here corporately it is one of our primary assignments so we all do a little bit of help on that not everyone doesn't make that their number one thing but everyone helps a little bit on it and not necessarily everyone but most people because some people are in a season where it just doesn't work at all and then there's a smaller number there's five or six hundred this is their occupation they're on the ihop staff this is their main assignment though not their only one but our spiritual family our church family here we're not put we don't believe that is the number one assignment of every individual but you can be a part of it and you can celebrate and say lord this is good and we can walk out our specific assignments together corporately in a family spirit because some were asking you know what do i do after last weekend wow that was some unusual words of knowledge and powerful it was exciting now what and the answer is is that we do our individual and corporate assignment before the lord the reason that he releases a spirit of prophecy to encourage us and to give us words that only god knows is so that we take our assignment seriously and we persevere and don't give up so maybe the lord has you in the marketplace and you're interacting with mostly unbelieving co-workers that's an assignment that's a place where you have been sent from the lord and you're to take that assignment seriously that's the takeaway from last weekend maybe you're a stay-at-home mom take the assignment of your children seriously they are your disciples maybe you're in ministry maybe you're over here across the city serving the poor whatever it is take your assignment seriously lean into it we do the sermon on the mount we live humble lives before the lord we don't give up we don't give in to despair and discouragement and loneliness we don't give in to what the enemy is trying to throw at us those fiery darts man that he is aiming at your heart and your life we do not give in to those and we rise up and we say the spirit of the lord is upon jesus to use me to help build his kingdom and advance his purposes in the earth yeah if i had to sum it up if i had to it would be love god with all of your heart and love your neighbor as yourself if i had to sum it up a wise man once that's what i would i'd got that from someone else but love jesus go i'm not that great at it we focus on that and we love our neighbor as ourselves which is in our family and the people we're working with and serving next to we love them and bring the love of god we do those two things we're doing it powerful i love it let's have our worship team come out we're going to just take a few moments and and wait on the lord together as a spiritual family i want to invite you to stand wherever you're at if you'd like to we bring service to a close here well i appreciate you guys doing these podcasts on wednesday because you're going to unpack more and more of this because again we made about five points real fast without connecting them well there's about 25 points to make i mean we need a year to just talk about this here and there not every meeting but here and there to just unpack it so we can go forward together those will begin on may 12th those will begin again may 12. well i want to pray this over us luke 4 18 and what has been striking me from this is that jesus is praying he's in this trinitarian conversation where we see the power the conversation of the godhead the lord is the father it says that the lord is upon me because he's anointed me and the father has anointed the son with the holy spirit and with power to make known his fame in the earth to release people that are in captive that are captives to real to bring liberty to those who are oppressed and oppressed of the evil one oppressed of satan and i had a dream last night and in the dream i saw jesus and he wasn't really clear but i knew it was him and i saw a bunch of people in our community our spiritual family this big gathering of people that were all standing and i saw jesus walking around and he's laying his hand hi babe he's laying his hand on different ones in our spiritual family and he's praying luke 4 18 over them and i believe that's a word to this house that the lord would release the anointing of christ jesus who is presently by the way anointed to set captives free right now that that's not 2 000 years ago in nazareth that's today jesus is anointed over your life to set you free to deliver you from the bondage of sin to deliver you from the bondage of addiction to deliver you from the bondage of infirmity and sickness and emotional brokenness and spiritual brokenness the lord our christ is anointed to deliver you today so i'm going to pray that in just a moment but yeah the ovaries word keeps coming back up but there was somebody that um text a friend from who was watching online and two days from now she's supposed to have a surgery and so i we just want to stand with her and pray again and anyone else that needs to receive healing specifically in that area for your ovaries and for healing and shoot this lady's in excruciating pain but i just believe that that was from the lord because he does want to heal and he wants to stretch out his hand today in this moment amen if you'd like to receive prayer for that just raise up your hand wherever you're at if you're online just put that into the chat to pray we want to stand right now with our sisters that the lord would release healing power in this area so jesus we thank you that you are the anointed one just put your hand on someone's shoulder that has their hand raised let's not let anyone be alone jesus you are anointed to heal lord we ask that you would stretch out your hand now to heal lord look upon the threats of the enemy stretch out your hand to heal jesus we ask for those online watching lord that in two days when the surgery is scheduled that there would not need to be a surgery lord we ask you for the pain to go in the name of jesus lord i ask for restoration for the womb for the ovaries lord i ask that you would breathe your life over the women right now lord we speak joy we speak a season of joy lord where there's been pain we speak restoration and healing in the name of jesus this luke 4 18 word one of the aspects of it has to do with healing and if you need healing in your body we want to

right here also if you need emotional healing there's something in your life there's a broken relationship you know jesus says that the spirit of the lord rested upon him to preach the gospel and guess what the first thing that is highlighted is to heal the brokenhearted see when you hear the good news of christ's gospel when you see the power of god one of the first things that comes to the surface is the brokenness of our hearts it's not the only thing but it's one of the first things that comes and the lord is in the business of healing the broken hearts of restoring our past of healing wounds that we've experienced through family members and friends the feelings of betrayal where we've been accused where we've been mistreated where our families are not all walking with the lord and we feel the pain of it mothers whose children that they've been praying for and contending for and they have a broken heart because their children are not yet walking with the lord if that's
