meal you build the miniatures morning good morning welcome yes thank you if you also do you have to say to them this morning you know welcome to the broadcast we're going to have a wonderful half hour together so welcome somebody to the broadcast and we'll be here together a wonderful time let's pray together father we thank you we thank you and we bless and praise and honor and adore the name of Jesus the name that is above every name the name that rules in heaven on earth and under the earth and we thank you that we are called by that name we are saved by that name and we rejoice that as we look into your word this day the light of your word shines in our hearts every veil taken away clarity comes to the world your people equipped your people edify your people build up by the word of your grace and we thank you that everyone today under the son of my voice takes up their inheritance among the sanctified so we give you praise and glory and honor for answered prayer in Jesus precious name Amen and amen praise God today we're looking at the indwelling spirit residence and permanence the indwelling spirit residence and permanence you know that's why we stopped history so just read for us John 14 16 and 17 and I will pray the father and he will give you another comforter that he may abide with you forever even the Spirit of Truth whom the world cannot receive because it seeth him not neither knoweth him but you know him for he dwelleth with you and shall be in you we have seen that the promise of the Spirit in the four Gospels pointed to residence and permanence thus in the Epistle the spirit within was the focal point from which the giving of the spirit and our reception of the same is explained the spirit within that's a focal point in the epistles so 1st Corinthians 3:16 know ye not that ye are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you the Spirit of God dwell it dwelleth in you every believer has the indwelling of the Spirit read for me first Corinthians 6:19 what know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you which ye have of God and ye are not your own the word temple is used to describe where 112 or where once teeth permanently paul also referred to believe us collectively and the habitation of God through the spirit where the spirit is this is based on the fact that individually the spirit lives in each of us as he had written in Ephesians 1:13 redraws officiants chapter 1 verse 13 in whom ye also trusted after that ye heard the word of truth the gospel of your salvation in whom also after that you believed you were sealed with that holy spirit of promise you were sealed with that holy spirit of promise Ephesians 2:20 to read for us in whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the spirits so all believers are called God's habitation through the spirit the fact of the indwelling Spirit was emphatically taught all through the pistils thus establishing it as an important fact that the believer ought to be a wager yeah daddy I just want to interject there you know talking about being the temple of God it's something that at first when I was growing up was taught in Sunday school and after that you know it was just something we're familiar with and then going on social media these days you see there's something that people make mockery of because you know being that the world is more should I see more exposed or more interconnected through the internet people instead of seeing that as an opportunity to respect or to grow in knowledge as believers they see it as an opportunity to act smart with the information that they've had growing up as believers so sometimes you see uh that being the temple of God people don't realize that apart from the Holy Spirit dwelling in you or God Himself dwelling in you it means that you are a representative or an ambassador or the very image I should say of Christ Himself it's like when you see a bank you already know what goes on in there if there's some practices that you were doing your house that you can't do it a bank just because you know it's a bank it has its rules its regulations same thing with the church or a mosque or whatever kind of institutional building we are the embodiment of Christ and apart from Christ living in us we have to realize that what we do is what people see as Christ doing because if we don't give the right image it gives people an opening to mock or to laugh at what we a hailing or what we represent which is Christ because many believers or many people around us and we interact dealing with people who are not born again so we are the number one channel or the number one contact that they have with Christ so we have to be careful how we present Christ or how we say things how we do things not that you put yourself in bondage or tie yourself down or you act like yourself again that's not it being aware is you have to be responsible with the information or with the person that you represent or the information that you put out there through your words through your actions through your behavior even if you make mistake it's okay to say oh I apologize this is not how we're supposed to go you know being human you can't slip up there's no how it's all supposed to go I'm going to rectify it or I'm sorry this is how I've fixed it you even just things like that it shows that we are aware we're conscious of who we are and who we are representing because even though Christ being in us is is perfection coming into imperfection to make it perfect we have to do our best to make sure it and this is not by our own willpower but we have to be that consciousness must be in us all the time so that when we want to speak about Christ to someone else we wouldn't have devalued ourselves too much in their eyes to the point where they don't even listen to you anymore and they don't even take it seriously they even you yourself the thing did not change you what do you want to come and say to me now that will be different we have to be aware that we have that responsibility so being the temple of God is not just a title it's a responsibility that the believer must be aware of and must must act in that responsibility all the time I'm saying this because I'm sure a lot of young people watching on social media Twitter and Instagram on Facebook people mocking the concept of being the temple of God you know we have to be aware that it's not something that just because people are laughing at it or making jokes with it we should join in we ought to stand against it and instead be the responsible ambassadors that we have been called to be right and that becomes easy when you keep looking into the perfect yeah but yeah when you stay and you put your gaze on the world you put your gaze on the world which is Christ yeah it's not use troubling to others know you're struggling to be if Christ in you yeah manifesting his life yeah it's he walking in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure you know second Corinthians 3:18 says we all with open face beholding the glory of God as in a mirror as in a glass as you are looking we are changed from glory to glory even as by the Spirit so if what were looking is right the Spirit does the chain if what you're looking is wrong this video to enchained because spirit is here to glorify Christ so if it is Christ you are looking into the Spirit will do the change to cause you and Christ to come into that one alignment in manifestation and that's very that's very vital even come a point where you've looked and looked and look until you don't even know the difference between this is me when I'm not thinking about Christ so this is me when I'm thinking about it because sometimes we tend to act like two people there's the charged version and there's the outside version meanwhile it's supposed to be one or it was supposed to be one all the time with Christ there's no time that you step out I see okay but this situation I do need to be a Christian at all points you are in Christ and he's in you right so you must remember that and in order to act out that life you have to keep looking you have to keep looking until it changes you it's not you that will affect the change the Spirit in you works that change through you yeah the work is not in trying to be some innocent the work is in looking yeah nothing more a perfect law and yielding to the Holy See yeah through the word and the change takes place you thought yeah but you have to place a premium in value on what crisis don't you yes you must so much value and esteem it so that there's no social media popularity yeah oh no trying to be popular in the eyes of people that is as precious as what you are having yes that is you can dam whatever to stay with what you have because it's very valuable precious in your sight yeah you know you have understood that this is what you cannot do it out who you are in Christ Jesus very fundamental look at that same scripture again where we are just read Falls first John 3:24 and he that keepeth His commandments dwelleth in him and he in him and hereby we know that he abideth in us by the spirit which he hath given us we know he abideth in us how by spirit which are giving us that's how we know the Holy Spirit is a guarantee of God permanently residing in the believer the Holy Spirit first John 4:13 hereby know we that we dwell in him and he in us because he had given us of his spirit this is how we know that we dwell in him and he dwells in us because he has given us his spirit I mean it's so clear yeah John a missing piece will explain the fact that God dwells and abides in us by the spirit which he has given us which was Jude 1 19 and 20 this be they who separate themselves sensual having not the spirit but the e beloved building up yourselves on your most holy faith praying in the Holy Ghost you beloved building up yourselves in your most most most holy faith how do you do that pray in the Holy Ghost you're praying tongues the language of the spirit given to every believer in my name this sign shall follow those that believe they shall speak with new tongues the new man speaks with new tongues new tongue new man you know new creature we speak with new tongues and it is when you start speaking with new tongues you build up your most holy faith it's like charging a battery it's like hooking up a battery to charge you build your eyes like an edifice higher and higher when you pray in the Holy Ghost so that even if it's a problem ahead of you when you start praying the Holy Ghost you grow so big and tall that the problem becomes significant in the presence of the believer who engages all the resources resources than at yours like praying in the Holy Spirit you know now Jude made a distinction between those who are sensual those are those not having the spirit from believers whom he calls belong he then instructs to build up our selves on our most holy faith by praying in the Holy Ghost does the indwelling of the Spirit is a reality of the man in Christ that's our reality the Spirit has been given and by faith in the gospel he has received the spirit he has the spirit today and forever the indwelling of the Spirit implies that the spirit lives in you not as a temporary place of abode but as a permanent residence does it would be a misnomer for him to assume that is without the spirit at any you know the believer does he have a spirit problem because he's born of the Spirit he is full of the Spirit is in the spirit the indwelling is not a temporary or conditional one rather the believer has a spirit is in the spirit and the spirit lives in him yeah you know that it really like concerns me really when I see a lot of young people already from their young ages they're already praying father give me the spirit or asking for the spirit even after they have come into Christ and I see now that is because of a lack of knowledge of who they are what they have because they could be spending all that time of fervent prayer praying for more profitable things that align with what the scripture says rather than empty things that will avail to nothing because the Spirit is never left that's always been in you will always be in you from now until forever so we need people to really really reach out into should I say the campuses actually in secondary school they would have these pastors come to our school they'll hold a General Assembly and they would say all kinds of contradictory things or things that are not even in line with the bond again man every message will come and confuse you from the last thing you heard yeah you know so not everybody was privileged to hear the actual truth and stick with it and be able to discern what is right and what is wrong right I see those people they're so struggling with who they are or did God really leave me or my loon right now or maybe okay I have to confess and cry cry cry before God come back to me or something like that see if they're negotiating with God meanwhile on God's part his covenant is with Christ and Christ is in us that means his covenant with us is perfect as Christ is perfect in himself so we really need more of this message to reach young people as young as they can comprehend what's in this book right it's really so simple there's nothing complex about it so if you buy a copy of this book for yourself nothing stopping you from getting one for your neighbor or for young people going to school or even if you run a school this is the sort of book that they should be teaching morning devotionals from write the morning assemblies every day one by one as long as you're in school together this is the sort of information that young people should be I'm hearing they should be empowered with so there won't be praying futile priya's that lead nowhere future use less less free eyes you know prayers like for now 3kb arcs in this video got to fall afresh has he grown old the one that came before songs those kind of things there rob you of your reality here Christ Jesus you know songs like braid up on me pray God yeah Brit upon you how can I believe in your God seem to be pretty you know the breath of God is the life of God you is already functioning and they will never leave no first yeah you will not die with you forever so all you've got to do is acknowledge that yes the communication of your faith becomes effectual when you acknowledge that these are you really yes you are college de and you walk in them and enjoy what crisis though I stopped praying useless players you know prayers that I'm behind the Curia prayers that before two thousand years ago and just wasting yourself and you know it like the Pharisees the Bible says they think that by their much speaking they shall be haha well you know he lives in you you don't have to talk too much she said before you call your heavenly Father knows that you have need of this is Ana's provided he has given you all things that pertain to life and godliness he has given you the spirit you are born of the Spirit yes giving you his life he has given you his love he was giving his power he has giving you all the resources that God has so all of these are in the finished work of Christ and the believer ought to walk from there and function from what crisis stop and then victorious you know victorious life yeah what a blessing today oh praise the Lord I'd like you to lead us in the confession today I have received the spirit which now lives in me I have received a spirit which now lives in me my body is the temple of the Holy Ghost my body is a temple of the Holy Ghost I am a permanent place of abode of the spirits I am a permanent place of abode of the spirit the spirit lives in me today and forever the spirit lives in me today and forever just going to pray for young people out there what confuse you are suffering from dwell personalities were victims were the mess code and even adults there are some others that are watching right now who are just confused they'll be messed up by religion yes or under the light of this world will break those holes of them and that will be released to come into the realities and their eyes be open to see this reality is the new home revelation knowledge you know just pray okay Heavenly Father we thank you we thank you Lord for this word for this eye-opening word and we speak Lord to every young person grown person that has been confused by mixed messages by confused messages wrong teaching that in their spirits Lord they will know that they are accepted yes in Christ yes and that being accepted in Christ that there is no work there is no extra burden laid on them should perfect themselves in your eyes yes but that through Christ the Lord they are perfected now and forever yes and lord we speak their reality into them - they have heard this word they will realize that the spirits dwells in them and that it empowers them to live victoriously right the Lord every spirit of identity crisis every confusion wherever it's coming from that Lord you grant these people clarity in their minds that they will begin to see only the truth they will begin to see only that which you have set out for them through Christ the Lord this message will sink deep into their hearts and cause a change cause they change in them that Lord they will be able to go back to whatever confusion they were living in there are especially young people people in high school secondary schools Lord that people who are feeding them all kinds of mixture of information that messes them up for the rest of their lives from this moment receive a confidence receive assurances of who you are of who Christ is and of how that power empowers you for the rest of your own life that Lord that they will continue to tap into that resurrection power they will go to the life before and they will look for any external source they will remember that Christ is their source he is their life and he is their future thank you Lord for creating that atmosphere in their lives

looking forward to connecting tomorrow on until then this is just a meal and a beldam in us a as the kingdom of God is in power amen Matthew chapter 5 verse 44 but I say unto you love your enemies bless them that curse you do good to them that hate you and pray for them which despitefully use you and persecute you that you may be the children of your father he didn't say that you may be like your father he said that you may be exactly the children of your father not just like him you can copy somebody but you're not exactly the person so here I didn't say that you may be like your father he said that you may be the children of your father that you may exactly reflect reflect the identity of your father who lives inside you that you may be the children of your father which is in heaven for he maketh his Sun to rise on the evil and on the good and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust he does not prefer his enemies to fall and die he does not pray for his enemies to be infested with cancer oh he blesses his enemies he does good to those that despitefully use him that's where your father is so he sends the rain on the good and on the bar he blesses the tankful under on tongfu he does not treat people based on how they treat him he treats people based on who he is that you may be the children of your father then he now described to you the qualities of your father in our love war that you preoccupy our minds that you may be the children of your father but I say unto you love your enemies that doesn't sound like the kind of thing you shall exactly shot a man to love your enemies he didn't say like your enemies he says love your enemies bless them that curse you have you been cursed by somebody before the natural thing that comes out of your natural mind is not to bless them is to have them is to wish them something very very awful and to wish it happens at that instant so then next time they will know that nobody can talk to you like that I'm going away with it but your father is not like that people stand up and say god you're stupid people stand up and said there is no God and as I said there is no God the rain is falling on their business their business is flourishing as they are saying there is no God he keeps them healthy as the same there is no God he makes things work for them he can just wink his eye and they discipline if they never existed but no your father doesn't behave like that your father looks at them and has pity on them and blesses them now that you may be the children of your father say with me I am just like my father you may be the children of your father which is in heaven for he maketh his Sun to rise on the evil and on the good and send that rain on the just and on the unjust the washer and air is the water hose that means descendants of spring you came from him look at verse 46 for if you love them which love you what reward have ye do not even the publicans the same how are you different if the only people you love are people who love you how are you different the publicans the sinners that we kept people out there that's how they operate they only love those who love them if you do the same how are you different I you know that sir believe us most believers operate if you trip me neither I treat you nice you don't treat me nice I treat you nasty if you are good to me I'm good to if you are not good to me I give you back in your coin is if that's how you operate then how are you different the publicans do the same they only love those who love them some of us only we see those who visit us you don't take our time I look for people who don't visit you and who may never visit you and even if they visit you they our visit is of no benefit to you you will never take the time to look for them and check them out and say hey I just stopped by your house to see how are you no you wouldn't do that you are on your high horse some believers wouldn't even greet one another after the service because you feel you're too much for others some are even trying to reach out to you you give them a cold shoulder same thing the unbelievers will do same thing the publicans will do but your father in heaven is not like that whether you wake up happy or not happy he gives you good things he throws good things along the way for you even when you feel it is judgment that you deserve God's goodness still keeps coming hallelujah Oh glory to God what a good God we solved the only thing in him is good every good and perfect gift so accept it it's not coming from him at all if it is coming from him what will it be it will be good good and perfect that you may be the children of your father sir with me I'm just like my father can I hear you shout it very loud let me be louder than the rain exactly it's natural to love people who love you but to be like your father then you've got a lot of people who don't love you Jesus lived in that realm the realm of love he went to the houses of people who didn't even believe the best of him who maltreated him love does not behave itself unseemly seeketh not her own is not easily provoked thinketh no evil everywhere there is strife it is well love start thinking of our own the moment you break that instruction and you start thinking of you that's when you get in strife you wouldn't know that somebody's not treating you nice until you start thinking about yourself as long as you're thinking about the passing you will not see the flow the flows begin to play up when you when you become selfish and love is not self-seeking it does not seek its own love doesn't seek its own log is sacrificial it gives out and gives out and gives out and believes the best of every person the love of God that's our nature glory to God that's who we are we are born of love we came from love we operate by love when you begin to feed yourself this you live in life that reflects Christ you bring out your full potential in transformation and you reflect the
