said amen amen amen hey look if you've got a specific prayer request then please feel free to uh scan the qr code and we would love to have uh people working with you they'd love to pray for your particular need which is so cool hey i want to remind us really quickly of some incredible words that pastor john spoke recently about what we can do in this season and he spoke about things that would help us not to just survive but to thrive three key points number one we're to meet with god and we can do that no matter what the season looked like that's about encountering god in worship that's about hearing his word and receiving it into our heart and into our spirit and i just encourage you make that a regular part of your week you meeting here this week amazing let's keep that habit in our lives we all need that the second thing we need to draw closer to god's people and i tell you what the early church was synonymous with this whether they were meeting in homes to share meals whether they were gathering to hear the the apostles teaching right and no matter what our season is whether we can do that in person or we're doing that over zoom or online i encourage you draw close to others we need each other we're designed to be together and the third thing is we serve one another we serve one another this changes our perspective we're not introspective we now see other people in the world god has designed you with a purpose in mind to make a difference in the lives of others so as you do that you receive god's purpose and you actually fulfill something that it lifts your spirit as well so amazing so good serving one another i love those three points hey we want to come around our giving right now and i want to share a thought with you in the book of first kings chapter 17 verse 13 the bible talks of elijah the widow and his son and they were about to eat their last meal and then they die but the bible says elijah instructed the lady to give to him first and afterwards they can make something for themselves i want to encourage you in this season it's easy for you to you know try to take everything to yourself or close in but this is the season that you give to god this is the season that you bring your first and your best to god and i believe that god is going to take care of you it's amazing it's so good hey we're about to hear the word of god today and i'm excited because we have pastor nathan chambers he heads up all of creative for a rise and he's about to preach the word of god this man is possessed with a passion for god he pursues him in his life and god's word really lives in his heart as he speaks today i believe god is going to speak directly to you he has a plan and a purpose for this message so get ready be on the edge of the seat come on and let's welcome pastor nathan chambers [Music] [Applause] good morning good morning good morning good afternoon good evening everyone that is joining with us today welcome to church we are so excited to be having church with you today and uh you know i believe it's going to be an incredible time together as we minister as we hear the word of god as we uh challenge each other's each other to do uh the work of god and it's going to be great hey if you're watching online around the world or across new zealand anywhere that you're watching from in a living room in a group like we have in this room today man i i'm telling you right now the presence of god is with you wherever you are jesus is in the room even if you're by yourself jesus is with you right now i just want to tell you that jesus is here his presence is here and he is a good god in fact i was thinking about and praying about this message and i felt really strongly that there's somebody who's logging in online watching the service today and you've been believing god for a miracle you have been praying petitioning putting something before god and really earnestly asking him for this miracle and i want to tell you right now that jesus is in this miracle that your faith has made you well that god is pouring out blessing on your life right now in jesus name and everyone said amen amen well if you have your bibles we're just going to rip straight into this because god's got some work to do today but i wanted to share a positive message something that that would kind of be a rally cry something that would call us back to who we are if you have your bibles would you turn with me to john chapter 1 verse 35. and i've got this chunky bible but but i love it says in verse 35 again the next day john stood with the two of his disciples and looking at jesus he walked and he said behold the lamb of god he's pointing out jesus the two disciples heard him speak they heard him speak and they followed jesus just as simple as that and then jesus turned and seeing them following he said to them what do you seek and they said to him teacher where are you staying and he said to them come and see and they came and and saw where he was staying and remain with him that day one of the two who heard john speak and followed him was andrew simon peter's brother he first found his own brother simon and said to him we have found the messiah and he brought him to jesus and now when jesus looked at him he said you are simon the son of jonah you shall be called cephas which means stone the following day jesus wanted to go to galilee and he found philip and he said to him follow me follow me and now philip was from bethsaida the city of andrew and peter and philip found nathanael and he said to him also we have found him man there's a whole lot of finding there's a whole lot of calling have you noticed the theme in here of whom moses in the law and also the prophets wrote jesus of nazareth the son of joseph he was prophesied all throughout scripture and now he's here and they are realizing you know jesus is pointed out by john isn't he and then there's this moment where uh john and andrew and peter and philip they that he says to them come follow me so simple jesus calls them by name he prophesies over them you know he says to simon your name is going to be this he says to nathanael you are this he he speaks into their future and he calls them into that place of a better future it's so powerful when you read this piece of scripture what jesus can do just by calling your name and this is you today i believe wherever you're watching from in this room online overseas this is you he's calling you he's giving you a new name and the title of this message today is your name goes here your name goes here let's just pray thank you lord jesus for your presence in this place right across the earth we thank you father god in advance for your miracle working power for your saving grace and for your hand at work in our lives in the mighty name of jesus and everyone said amen did you ever get to play the game of bull rush the game of bull rush is such a crazy game you know and uh you know kids would call out names and they would you know you'd have a row of kids and you get picked out and if you were the first picked of the few names you know that was that was awesome you felt like you were one of the ninjas one of the one of the chosen few it was awesome you were kind of part of that team and if you were picked somewhere in the middle it was like yeah you know okay and if you were picked out last i mean barrels had face emoji uh you know you just had to be the one that was going to be tagging everyone and running around and putting all the effort in but there's something so powerful about being chosen about being called about being thought of it makes you lift your head set your shoulders back and and kind of feel all confident puff out your chest and look at the world with new lenses i've got my glasses on today there's a special kind of day when the glasses are on it fills you with confidence when you're called your feet are firmly on the ground you feel like everything's stable you've got faith and hope it's a powerful thing when something like that happens you know i was thinking about this year i was inspired about about this and i believe that jesus is calling your name calling your name he sees your name before you he sees you he knows you he has a dream and a vision for your life wherever you're watching from and in this room he has a dream and a calling for your life he's saying hey you come follow me so simple so powerful and like the disciples your name goes here and this year i believe will be a year where jesus is calling you to follow so simple it's not meant to be complicated it's not meant to be you know following what everyone else would say we hear so many voices so much media so much stuff going on so many things being said we want to hear and know the voice and the closeness of jesus in our lives and i kind of prophesy that over you today we want to hear the voice and closeness of god jesus will be what causes you to be as the bible says salt and light to the world around you to your workplace to your university to your school in your spare time with your friends and with your family he is a powerful miracle working god and you may think it's hard but the holy spirit will give you wisdom in this time that will break down walls and elevate your faith i'm telling you right now come follow me that's what jesus is saying and when jesus called the disciples it wasn't a 10-step program it wasn't keto or jenny craig it wasn't i'm cool and maybe you could come along it wasn't exclusive jesus simply called their name he's calling your name and he just says come and follow me you know the disciples they dropped what they were doing what was absorbing their time they hung out they they chatted they stayed at an airbnb and they went with jesus along to his hotel and they they were hanging out they were having a great time before heading off to that wedding that famous wedding where jesus reveals his miracle working power all of that before then simple called in john 1 43 it says the next day jesus said to philip come follow me wow it just keeps on going right disciples have followed him that first day and hung out with him and then the next day come follow me and then philip went to look for his friend it wasn't just as good as just him going it wasn't exclusive he then called his buddy we've found him he said maybe in the season you've had people saying to you this is the way this is your career this is your future this is your truth even on social media when we get likes it's as if that's a like to your name but that is not our call that is not who we are that's not our dna what do you tell the person next to you if you're in a room with people and say that jesus is calling your name come on elbow them if you can just say jesus is calling your name his name is jesus what a great god we serve in my prayer my belief for you this year in your job your school your ministry your life group your home groups whatever it is family friends that you would receive the fullness of jesus christ and such a vision of him that all you can see and say and talk about is jesus all you praise is jesus the presence of god in your life in such a manifest way all you are known for is jesus and this is the thing jesus is calling your name he's not deferring to someone else he's saying you come follow me i want to remind you today that he's asking you and he's in your beating heart he's in your world and he's saying to you right now come follow me your name goes here man this is such a huge and exciting call and i want to share with you three simple points today and if you've got your notes if you've got your pen and paper wherever you're watching from get out your your phone on flight mode as pastor john says and uh and take these notes it's really really important that you do because i believe that this is something for this year for you and these three things are a new call a new name and a new future god is moving on this today and then i'm going to give you an opportunity to know this jesus that you can call on his name number one a new call how do you know that this year jesus is calling you well for starters you're here wherever here is watching online overseas in a room with friends whoever it is have you ever had someone call you out and they don't know your name but they're just trying to get your attention you know you do all sorts of funny stuff when when you're trying to get someone's attention you know you're down the street and you recognize them and you're like what's their name and you're just like hey hey uh hey you you there uh hey bro or the last resort you whistle and 10 people turn around and they're like what's going on and and maybe it's you you're hoping you're kind of throwing something random into the distance you know one day i was caught fishing by myself you know well not caught but i really loved it i used to live on great barrier island and um i took this little boat of my father's out for a fish and i was about a kilometer out to sea from home and i was about 14 years old so it was a great old time by myself and i was between these two little small islands i was just daydreaming it was a beautiful day things were great the seagulls were doing their thing you know not on me just chirping is what i mean and i was thinking of the fish that i was going to be catching you know it was great old time i just anchored there and then all of a sudden this crazy moment happened i'm sitting there all quiet imagine it you're quiet you're on the water you're fishing and then all of a sudden a helicopter and i'm like whoa and it was a navy helicopter and they were basically over the loudspeaker said something like this hey you move away from the zone this is a naval exercise and then all of a sudden around the next island this massive navy ship came around the corner and i'm like whoa i'm in this little dinghy and there's a ship and there's a helicopter and there's all this stuff going on they were calling me and i was freaking out i froze in fear looking at this helicopter and the ship and all the chaos going on in that peaceful moment you know and jesus is calling us even in the chaos in first peter 5 verse 8 it says this the enemy is roaring like a lion looking for people to devour and maybe in this past season random but names or voices have tried to say who you are have tried to call you and maybe even got your attention but i believe that the devil is a liar sometimes these things can try and intimidate or cycle through your mind to create fear names that we carry around with ourselves like fear and anxiety and you know depression and things that we hold on to or maybe have affected us but these names have to bow to a name that has much more significance that has the power over sin and death that has the power over everything maybe these voices seem large and overwhelming but these are not your calling or your name the bible says that you were called a child of god in fact saved and set free and jesus today is calling you out he's calling you out of your old life and into a new life jesus knows who you are he is such a brilliant amazing savior here are a few things that god says about you number one he he gives you a future and a hope it says in jeremiah 29 11. i know that we know that verse but it's so powerful and in matthew 10 verse 30 it says that he even knows the hairs on your head man i don't even know the hairs on my children's head i got four boys and they are brilliant but imagine starting to count the hairs on their head you'd get to 50 and be like ah i missed one i've got to start again you can't you know either that moment where you you trip up on your counting but god knows that's how much detail he's interested in just the little things on your life he's very specific he's after you in first corinthians eight verse three it says when you love god and are known by him and you you would know his voice wow in john 10 verse 1 it says he calls his own sheep by name and he leads them out and they are familiar with his voice and in isaiah 56 5 it says for the name i give them is an everlasting one it will never disappear how powerful is that i love that what an awesome god and in john 1 35 we continue in that in that passage of scripture jesus is walking along and he starts gathering his disciples right he's calling them out one by one he's speaking into their future and he's speaking into yours he speaks into simon who becomes peter nathaniel and john and philip and andrew and many other women that were around and they do the same calling others what was modeled to them they replicate even john the baptist starts that whole chain and he's like calling jesus out it was prophesied right he would be a voice in the wilderness and in that moment in my boat i was called out i was it was just this big surprise not any kind of thing that i was expecting but a huge kind of sudden event and that moment was a call of fear but jesus is calling us by faith in john 1 15 it says he's the one set your hearts on him by the way we need people to call us out call us into our destiny call us into our future say to us man you've got a gift on your life the presence of god is in your life you could do this god is moving in your family god is moving through your hands and you might say i'm unqualified i can't do it i'm not good enough but jesus says you are qualified you are good enough you are chosen and called by me by my name you are under a new banner the name of jesus your name goes here number one and you call number two a new name we've been renamed by jesus have you ever been called names man i hate being called names you know when you're a kid you get called all sorts of names and man kids can be brutal you're at school and they they come up with some sort of nickname and then everyone starts calling you in there and it just sticks to you and and you hate it and it bites you on the inside it can be cruel but those names and moments just aren't true maybe they're tearing you down maybe they're making you feel hopeless maybe they're kind of eroding into your future that whole saying of sticks and stones is just not true right i want to remind you today that you are not those names you are in fact highly valued by god in romans 9 25 it says this and this is an incredible version it says to those who were rejected and not my people i would say to them you are mine and to those who are unloved i would say you are my darling and in the place where they were told you are nobody this will be the very place where there will be listen to this re-named children of the living god i love that are there any parents in the room online you know put you put your chat in the uh you know online chat just say yeah i'm a parent give you know high fives to the parents you know you're doing a great job by the way god is moving in your lives your kids are going to be all right you know our firstborn i remember um anna and i my wife we were thinking and praying about that name you know the first baby name it's it's a big burden for any parent you know you're really thinking about it and you want this name to be really cool you want it to be unique you want to have a sense of authority or something of meaning just or at the very least something cool you know the first baby is very idealistic and we had the name book because when we had our firstborn the internet was a bit rubbish it was a wee while ago and you really care about this name you want for this little person something that they can carry that they can be confident in because a name can mean so much can't it over somebody's life you know there was a court case a number of years ago and they released this every single year these names that are crazy and you know a court case that revealed uh you know names that had been barred by the courts for people who had called their kids derogatory and shameful names things like hamburger i know it's a crazy name but people called their kids that number 16 bus shelter violence twins benson and hedges i mean it sounds kind of funny but people do that but the thing is i was thinking about it and i i kind of thought about it like this what they had surrounded themselves with what they had held in high value the names that were around their lives they then poured over into their children the value that they had placed in their lives they had put into their children we didn't want that kind of rubbish for for our kids i'm sure you don't want for you for your kids either of course but neither does god for you and that's why it's so important to be surrounded by jesus by his voice by people who love him calling you out for who you really are in this world and in the world to come you know so many times in the bible god renamed people didn't he we've got this evidence in the bible it says you know he wanted to align them to a new destiny and he wants to align you to a new destiny that's why we are called children of the most high god that's why we have the name jesus representing us abraham was renamed abra sorry abram was renamed abraham father of a multitude of nations sarai was named renamed sarah that's the plural of sarai by the way sarai means woman to the nations or strength to woman should i say and now she's strength to the nations jacob was renamed israel from deceiver to overcomer simon was renamed peter the rock like dwayne johnson he had it going on there's a name though that god has given to you and it is sealed over us a name that changes us from the inside out a name that shifts atmospheres and a name that brings us eternity and salvation a name that represents us before god the father and says their sin doesn't matter anymore because my blood has covered them by my name his name is described in the bible as everlasting prince of peace mighty god wonderful counselor holy one worthy our healer our savior his name is jesus no other name and in revelation 3 12 it says and i will also write on them a new name he's written on you wow when you choose his name you you die to sin you're raised to life and you are a new creation the bible says the old life has gone you know in john chapter 1 there's this interesting little tiny nugget of scripture and it says that jesus was created by the holy spirit that means that he is a completely new dna remember that adam was breathed on by god as a moulded piece of dust and clay jesus was created by the holy spirit the old man was dust the new man is spirit so when jesus died and rose again and when we die and rise again with christ we are a new creation we're simply called for jesus the name above all names and jesus he's all through the bible he's at the center of it all he is what the bible says the first and the last the alpha and the omega in john 1 12 it says but those who embraced him and took hold of his name were given authority to become children of god come on children of god and you are all now firstborns of christ you've been given a new name number one a new name number two sorry number one a new call number two a new name number three a new future man there's an amazing future for you wherever you are wherever you're watching this there is a new future for you this year in 2022 god is moving and breathing on your life it sounds maybe optimistic or hopeful but man jesus is the hope of glory he is incredible in john chapter 1 verse 49 it says there's this great moment where where jesus arrests nathanael's attention and he prophesies into his future he calls him this creates a huge hope for things to come he saw him under this fig tree and he's like i saw you and this is what i believe in your life man hope is about stepping into a new future think about all the people in the world around us now who have no hope we're thinking about all those chaotic situations around the world we've got this pandemic we've got wars and we've got things going on but god wants to give us hope he is a powerful god i want to read this study to you that is done by the harvard health study on harvard health study not hell about hope among young adults with chronic illnesses greater degrees of hope are associated with improved coping well-being and engagement in healthy behaviors wow so powerful hope also protects against depression among teens and later in adults hope is linked with get this health quality of life self-esteem and a sense of purpose it's essential factor for developing both maturity and resilience that's that simple four-letter word hope you know when thinking about your future there are three quick things about hope that give us hope ironic but true number one hope lifts your head man we heard pastor john share this incredible message about lifting up your eyes hope lifts up your head to look into the future the bible says in the psalms look to the mountains from where does my help come from my help comes from the lord the beautiful thing about that is when we're our eyes are fixed on the mountains we're not thinking about the valleys and the ruts and all the things that are in the way god's called us to lift up our head number two hope builds faith the bible says faith is the substance of things hoped for wow and number three hope is found in jesus in first peter one verse three it says in his great mercy he has given us a new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of jesus christ come on now i want to finish with this quote this is a powerful quote by the teachings of smith wigglesworth i love smith wigglesworth his life his testimony his faith listen to this six people went into the house of a sick man to pray for him he lay in his bed utterly helpless without even the strength to lift himself up he read a little book a tract about healing and he had heard about people praying for the sick and he sent for these friends who he thought could pray the prayer of faith he was anointed according to james 5 14 but because he had no immediate manifestation of healing he wept bitterly he felt hopeless the six people walked out of the room somewhat crestfallen to see the man lying there in an unchanged condition and when they were outside one of the six said to each other man there's one thing that we might have done i'm just thinking about it now i wish we could all go back with me right now and just try this and they went back and they got together in a group and this man said to the rest of the group hey let us whisper the name of jesus at first when they whispered this worthy name nothing seemed to happen but as they continued to whisper jesus jesus jesus the power of god began to fall oh i love this and as they saw what god was beginning to do the work of god their faith and joy increased and they whispered the name louder and louder jesus jesus jesus and as they did so the man arose from his bed and dressed himself come on somebody's got to dress themselves today somebody's got to get up out of their bed somebody's got to believe by faith like the woman with the issue of blood if i can just touch sometimes we've got to tell ourselves but man he had people with faith all of a sudden whispering the powerful name of jesus man if people would only appreciate the power that there is in this name there is no telling what could happen you know jesus has not changed the bible declares that he is the same yesterday today and forever and i
