doesn't have any spiritual significance that no it's just a little voice that I like so now that we can clear that up although when I when I ordered the vast behind David thought it wasn't the ego you bought helping you bother that evil demon no this is it's the Loch Ness monster kelpy water horse there's meant to be a larger office definitely it's the better Loch Ness monster kelpy water horse it is mo because of C because of these horns I'm sure to have to have the harder horns but they're not as long Eric LP ish I agree with David I would be if it came out of a box and delivery in our house I'd be starting praying in tongues I'm just joking it's a very nice very nice bars rah giraffe that yeah Meg chalkeley agrees it's definitely nursing [Laughter] your app we'll have a vote clarissa agrees with me I knew I liked tickler so yes but from man where were you why did it go different colored head to body who knows my dad bought it but he bought it in I like it and the at the ungoliant Namibian border apparently that's nice but now you have to confess what water your oldest what are you first you're all this warning minutes in your house right so we are being to market when you're on holiday and you been convinced to buy the most bizarre things ever for no reason right how you would this is the ugliest thing ever let me see that I can't see the elephant we cut wood I'm trying to see where is its trunk that's all that's bet here I see it now okay they seal elephant like this when we were in West Africa what just ridiculous all your life did your mother have that honor shelf well I think now I'm sending everybody who has one sorry we all hate and the house mom puts out in defiance on the shelf just a delay she likes that she postponed the fight Nessie's in my room because I don't know what to do with that I put it under my bed somebody loves it maybe you can send it to them somebody's saying they love the Churchill you can sit it's fine okay I have nothing silly like that in my house you've got holy things sir - well because exactly because because I I have lots of tasteful ornaments ooh naughty naughty actually I thought you're gonna show you a little - that's because I haven't show them you - and some I have a real mini - hunt and Sam's got a paper ornament one yes but I don't have anything really like that what I have to show you which is unusual is a victory bell actually it was in my parent parent in law's house it's got the head of Eisenhower on it well it's meant to be Eisenhower and sure chill and this guy is mister guy I don't know who that is and but it was made from German aircraft shot down over Britain and it was cast and to make money for the RAF Benevolent Fund and it's got a V here on it so I've had it in prayer meetings we love Germany by the way we love Germany but it's just that it's because it's a victory bell and actually Alistair have it every Thursday night in the garden when it was claps for Purim and she is for the NHS he was out there ringing his victory bell you know loudly can you imagine him and so yes it has been used that's probably the most unusual let me show you one more work one of my animal turned up one morning to church and said I was walking past this clear right that this house was doing and they have a big you know tip and skip in the front garden and I saw this thing in this skip and I salvaged it for you I thought you would really love it and I thought what on earth is going to come out of this plastic bag and she has things in our house for years she presented me with it which which is for those of you who know and Beethoven so this yeah focus from a skip and I'm although it's clean well polished and actually I think my husband quite likes it because of course I live across a bust from a skip yes so there we go it does really work it actually it looks great it looked really good in your office and I think because of David's musical history it's a nice it's a nice stuff nod to that isn't it probably worth a lot is Beethoven's so grumpy David you need to answer that because Beethoven is not my favorite so oh I could make him a necklace holder now that you are absolutely on it ya know that his ninth is nice the ode to joy but David's favorite is what Shostakovich I think is it's big and brassy anyway sure least I'd like to join what does his skip like a rubbish a trash dump type thing yes you're right they're just chucking things I it wasn't even for sale it was just a dump that somebody rescue - hey man the things so yeah that's the tour around our house so let's get straight into the word of the Lord for today and of course I like that so the word of today we've been talking about culture for the last two days and really covered a lot of em grind with that and we are going to land in that particularly some of the corporate cultural things and what we've been talking about is that it doesn't matter what your strategy is it doesn't matter what your plans are you know doesn't matter what your vision is if you don't have the right culture all of that will be eroded by your culture and so but Sam entertain you thought you had a prophetic word to start off with some do you want to hear tell us so we can hear what the Lord was saying to you and Sarah Jane piggyback on the back of it and we'll start pray on the prophetic word yeah I mean I love when we come onto our chat and the morning just before we come on life and so many of us have heard the same thing without having a discussion just because God is speaking with the force and reinforcing what he's saying to his people right now and Sarah Jane and I had almost kind of a word-for-word same words of what God is seeing and it's a wrong best thing that's called to stand up and God is just saying those words right now over his people stand up and you can just feel the presence of God almost too simple words stand up and God took me into acts two last night the great painter called scripture and we have and the earth just had a moment of God and this kind of paint across time that we have come out of where God is saying I have activated my power in the air at a greater and any greater level but there is this phrase in verse 14 after the outpouring of the Spirit after there's this activation of power after there's a release of a tongues and a prophesying of what the Holy Spirit brings and it says this then Peter stood up then Peter stood up with the eleven and raised his voice and addressed the crowd and he said let me explain this to you that when the power of God came there was a moment of receiving for the disciples and then there was a moment of giving where the disciples started to steward what they had just received particularly Peter and I standing up possession and starting to prophesy and bring a godly articulation of what God is doing and what God was doing in the earth and God is saying it tells people great now there is this stand up call the I am releasing to you on the back of the according of my spirits where I am putting a grace on you to stand up and start to articulate what I'm doing in the earth start to bring a God context of what I'm releasing and the earth and God is saying it is time to stand up it is time to get and that's that the operate possession where God is saying you'll start to Stuart what you have received for the masses and it's in that point of the standing up where what their disciples had received of the power of God started to then be sturdy so the all who what started to have encounters with the Lord that it went from there I am receiving an I am being felled to know I am pouring out what I have know I'm sure doing what I have know I'm in part of what I have and God is saying stand up stand up stand up because there is a call on you know to start to steward what I am doing in the earth and I am about to give you says the Lord a godly articulation where you're going to know the words in standing up that you need to say to your friends to your family to the cultures that I've called you to you're gonna know the words that are anointed to bring salvation to bring repentance to bring wholeness to bring healing the Lord says but it's endless standing up and the Lord is saying even in your devotional times at home the Lord says I'm even gonna force you into that standing up place I feel like the Saints of even walking and marching back and forward because there's that mirth and there's that push that God is bringing to asking of his people but he says stand up stand up stand up and start to stir what I am doing says the Spirit of the Lord sir Jane yeah and I was hearing the Lord say stand really thundering with his voice stand stand over it releasing two hours and I saw the angels bringing like South like white south and releasing it and putting it on our knees in according to his Isaiah 35 and three mature steady the knees that give way so for those of you that have found it difficult and challenging to stand stand firm in the faith as the Word of God says in 1st Peter 5 9 and stand fast in the grace of God first Pizza 512 standing firm and doing all that we can to stand corners with Ephesians six they stand and stand up anointing that God is releasing to ours is to enable us to stand in faith but also to stand against the enemy and we will there's so many scriptures I was just doing a bit of a study this morning in Exodus 14 13 stand firm and you will see the deliverance of the Lord that will bring you through second Chronicles 2017 stand firm and you will see the deliverance of the Lord there is a stand and mounting who can stand and there is a volunteer spirit that we have to have to say God I want to receive that anointing I want to receive that anointing to be able to stand against the evil one because on the day when the Lord comes back he's not coming back in a way anything other than standing on Mount Zion in Revelation 14 and the people that stand with him which is in Revelation 15 and it says and I saw what looked like a sea of glass mixed with fire and standing beside the sea those who have been victorious over the Beast and His image and over the number of his name and so this stand up anointing enables us to stand against the enemy until the day that we get to stand with Jesus at the sea of glass and give glory to him and so I believe it is an anointing that the Lord wants us to volunteer into at this time but we are going to need it in the next decades to come the church has to walk in this has to have if you will the stand up anointing is something that is fixed to us to stand against what is coming and so we want to release that prayer and to receive if last out up anointing you might want to stand where you are right now you want you might want to get up from your seat and if I could I would but you wouldn't see my he wouldn't see me and so I would just say God we choose to stand which used to get up we choose to stand up we choose to present ourselves we choose to remain in that position of firmness of faith and we said God would you release those angels that you showed me release the Angels to the need of those that are feeling feeble that need the strengthening to come to their knees to hold fast and to hold firm at this time we say God would you release those angels and just receive that family just receive that strengthening for those need to receive that strengthening to you needs to be able to stand firm in the faith to stand up on your feet as Sam said and I will speak to you says the Lord cotton birth is equal to one also in Jesus name and then brilliant David could you put on the screen that verse Isaiah 35 that sarah-jane was reading Isaiah 35 verse 3 and I just want to pray that over you Isaiah 35 verse 3 so that we really can make sure that we have warfare on your behalf so that the fullness of this anointing is yours Isaiah 35 verse 3 and it says this strengthen the feeble hands steady the knees that give way there it is on the bottom of your screen strengthen the feeble hands steady the knees that give way let me just pray for you right now in the mighty name of Jesus where there has been a frailty in your physical frame where there has been an inability to hold your position where you have felt tossed around by every incoming storm and wind I lose a strength to your hands right now I lose the strength to your hands that you will be able to grasp hold of things and retain them and right now where there is a weakness in your ability to stand i strengthen your knees i strengthen them physically in the name of jesus but i loosen emotional and spiritual robustness to your inner man and i say you will fuch be one who can stand up and not have to fall over you'll be one who will and your grind and not be blown around you will be one who will be so rooted and established in the strength of the Lord in your emotions and in your spirituality and in your physical frame that there will be no way that any scheme of hell will knock you of course or send you off balance and in the name of Jesus this standing anointing this really is an anointing of robustness this robustness anointing this ability to punch yourself in the word and the ways of your King and not find that in a few days time you have been knocked over I lost that to you I miss consistent standing on this continual standing I lose an ongoing way of grace of the strength of God to infuse you I bless your hands as we strengthen the feeble hands as Isaiah 35 says that what you touch will flourish that what you touch will be anointed but what you put your hand to there will be victory and success in it because your hands are gonna be able to grab the things that God wants you to grab and they will not be snatched out of your hands by the enemy but when it comes to a tug-of-war between your you holding something that the enemy wants to remove from you I lose to you the ability in your hands to keep holding what God has got for you and not let it be removed and in Jesus name your hands to hold and your knees to stand are now a list into a new level a new place of robust strength in God in Jesus name whoo hallelujah just receive that in Jesus name anything else you guys want understanding before we go into culture know just that that just that the posture of standing as is something that God is really am just pressing on and the spirit and and the natural so that sees both a spiritual thing and a natural posture but that I actually am the the even and your your devotional times I just felt li the Spirit of God was speaking and about that and when he was speaking to me he was saying stand up because I want to speak to you in so many times and scripture there would be certain points where God would say like stand up and I will speak to you as well as falling down and there is a moment where God is saying look even the revelation that I want to give you will come in that place of standing because I'm standing you will be able to hold what I want to bring to and through you and I actually hear like even locationally and your heads God is gonna say things like you need to stand up and you need to go over here or you need to go outside and stand up and not posture and stand here and there is just a healing for joints there as a healing for joints there is a healing for mobility issues a physical healing that is on the back of this particular call that some of you who find it hard for time for a of time God is saying I'm even gonna heal where that has come and so in the name of Jesus I just speak to baldies as well just on the back of what Emma was saying I'm not worth of healing we just list right now in Jesus name and just agree with about where to stand okay let me bring and something actually was shared for the first time late last night emerging prophets what did you sometimes 13 know and that's like with the origin prophet I was just I was just yet there must be a delay I'm sorry and know what I was feeling was the stand up anointing that Sam speaking about and particularly shown if you read Ezekiel 1 and 2 one of our favorite books but Ezekiel 1 and 2 because there's an encounter of the Lord there's a glory encounter and then and the Lord says dizzy kill now stand up and I will speak to you and the Spirit of the Lord lifts him up and there is a sense of this you know saying yes to God yes I want to be one who stands and you speak through and but there's this sense of the account with the Lord that comes before that so if you're feeling like hmm you know and I actually want to lay down in an encounter God there isn't it there is an encounter with the Lord before you stand up so it's not just stand all the time so for those of us that are thinking you know hang on a minute a few months ago you told us to kneel you know yes absolutely there are postures but this word of god is saying stand comes after you've encountered God and so it comes after that encounter so don't feel like now you have to stand every time you're talking to God and it's part of this new fresh anointing that God is releasing to his church at this time and we have it at any point as we receive it to to move out to stand and I will speak to you so it comes with with that Cavis amen that's me finished thanks Emma myk's okay so let me let me go back to it I want to give you an overview of where I feel we are in in the arc of of church history and orient saw the history lesson because I really want to give you some revelation on where we are because we're really grappling with the new wine and so let me go back to put it in context I think we understand that there was old old wine old old wine two wines ago which we called denominationalism and denominationalism most of us you know we've grown up in church will have known the taste and the unfortunate taste of the old old wine of denominationalism and there were some good things in there too clearly because that we were raised on truth but the old old wine of denominationalism split the people of God in two groups that would not interact with each other because it was all about defending your truth and so there was no training there was no equipping really in that epoch of church history at all and there was no need for training there was no lead for need to release people there was no need to equip anybody why because under the old old wine of denominationalism you had to sit and do what you were told and hold the truth and defend what was given to you and though the the the focus was all about the pulpit the pulpit was the big capital letters you know front thing we all looked at the pulpit and the defense of truth and so we were told to trust the leader and we were told to trust the tradition now in terms of timeframes that would have been probably thirty years ago and back and that would have been it you know how the church had been actually for a long even of centuries where denominationalism ruled the roost trust the leader trust the pulpit trust the tradition nobody gets released nobody gets equipped nobody gets trained but you all hold truth and Louise gray you're quite right that still holds in many churches unfortunately and then we have moved on from the old old wine to what I would call just one old wine or the most recent wine and many of the great organizations that have been birthed and raised up in the last 30 40 years we would want to call recent wine and they moved away from that defend truth and the pulpit is where it's really at to start to understanding that we need to train we need to equip that is the recent wine model and so we started to sit in in training schools over the last probably three decades but the real issue with that was that we were still focused eyes front and we went from the pulpit in the old old wine to the platform in the recent wine and we were told that we had to trust the specialists or we had to trust the trainer that was what was important in the last 30 years now because of the push against denominationalism and the dislike of em the rules of the very old there was a lot of loose edges in the recent 30 years where we wanted freedom from religiosity and control but accidentally we fell off in off that main path of freedom into independence and loneliness and I think the two demons that have wormed their way in to the recent wine and have been incredibly horrific bad fellows have been independence and loneliness in the people of God I think that is the tragedy of the last 30 years of the church independence and loneliness and so although we talked about belonging it was very loose and loose connection and kind of I think some of these more recent wine structures and churches if you were out of sight you're out of mind okay so belonging didn't really totally work or in the same way that it had actually denominationalism was great at reading belonging yes you were shut down but actually at least you belonged and whereas we lost belonging in the loneliness and the independence of the most recent wine so stay with me because I want you to see the arc of where God has got us so he went from defend and pulpit and trust the leader to trust the specialist trust the school trustee equipping oh it's all about the platform from pulpit to platform okay and now we are going into the new wine and the new wine starts to factor in something that we have not seen in the old denominations or even the recent incarnations of the recent wine and it is the whole arena of the activation of the people and the great frustration that most of us will have felt for most of the third last 30 years is we went to schools to train but we never walked it out in activation at the other end so we got very fat on training but very frustrated in never hitting destiny and that is the major thing that is changing in the culture of the church and so what is going to merge noise in this model is not just training but is activation and that means that ministries are going to have to help stewards you finding your ministry platforms for you ministering and there is going to be a new level of a lifestyle of belonging together ongoing relationships and ongoing codependency this really matters so no longer is it you come to my school and we talk and we say that we're you know new wine and you you think that something amazing is happening because you're being trained but you actually walk away almost as frustrated as you walked in the door because there's no ongoing relationship and there's no activation of your gift and so where we're going is from pulpit focus on pulpit stay with me to a focus then on platform and now the focus is on the people it is one of the greatest shifts in the body of Christ from from pulpit to platform to people and rather than trust the leader we do do trust areas but the focus being the dominant you know cirrhosis trust the leader to trust the trainer to trust the Jesus in everyone this is Masum to trust the Jesus in everyone to trust everybody that they have got something to bring to the table from pulpit to platform to people to a whole movement of the releasing of the Army of God not just about the gathering of the one or the two or even the gathering of the many and calling it church because let me tell you this the stadium meetings which became the big deal in the recent wine are very per at releasing the Army of God and actually all that the stadiums tended to do get eyes on a platform rather than the release of the people and I am deliberately pressing some buttons there and so it is going to require that leaders serve the people in a completely different way and the Spirit of the Lord is saying that we are entering the era of the apostolic push where it is not about identifying an apostle or naming an apostle it is about the activation of the apostle to push the people into their place where they're activated in ministry it was the original idea all along you're quite right Katherine forgotten your surname that the screen moved too fast and so we are going into this place it really is the Saints movement in activation but we are going into this place of incredible messiness and in a god way a god inspired messiness where actually our previous lines of constraint or structure are not going to be enough because we're going to have to trust people in that Bible verse that talks about there's never no oxen in the stall is where we are in in our history but we are always going to be by cleaning up a mess do we still need the three do we still need the pulpit yes we do do we silly the platform yes we do and it's not an of course I'm still going to keep teaching so yes but it is that the dominant thrust not that you lose teaching and preaching and the training addition so that you lose that but you are getting an an addition and a glory addition of a trust in everybody and it is a lovely messiness I think you're right Kathy goes incredible messiness but it's lovely and so this is where this is where we are going as the body of Christ and many organizations are starting to go oh my goodness how do i frame it like that how do I release people how do I trust them you know rather than go I don't think you're ready and when anybody has said to you you are not ready you are not trained enough you are not gifted enough you are not intelligent enough I break that lie off your life right now because that is not the Word of God in this season and God is saying there is Jesus in you just like there is Jesus in the leader yes you have to be trainable and yes you have to be teachable and yes you have to be surrendered to leaders but it is no longer it is no longer about you being told that you are not ready enough because you are if you are one step on from a non-christian and you are just in the door of salvation that one step is far enough Forge to be able to turn them around and pull them to where you are okay so we are breaking the lies that we are a generation who are not yet ready we have got to discipline to disagree with that lie I'm not yet ready I'm not you are more ready than you think you are more trained than you think you are more equipped than you think you are more chosen than you think you are more anointed than you think and that I am NOT ready must not be the lie that the church holds on to as we move from pulpit to platform to people in this era who now I'm getting so hot and getting excited so I really feel like that is the overarching understanding that God wants to bring to the body of Christ and so you can measure hi oh well your church is doing with with with keeping with that but it but we are entering into this utterly vast release of people to minister in the name of Jesus and one of my emerging prophets is you know and how do I know if it's God or how do I know it's not God last night you have got to trust the voice of God on the inside of you you have got to trust the voice of God on the inside of you I think I trust the voice of God on the inside of you more than you do you have a history with Jesus you know what he's like and you know what he signs like okay so we're gonna jump straight into an culture from that thought and I know I'm talking a lot guys at me him any thoughts on that because I get carried away and then just keep talking any thoughts on that before we say some or just one and it's not really my thought is make Boulevard she's thought a said something years ago I caught about church that just stuck with me and he said there's always a mess in the North grave where there's new life and learning an exploration and adventure there's always a neat and tidy place in the graveyard where there's death and there's no life that actually when God is saying there is new life there is birthing there is learning there is a mass in terms of it's not neat and tidy you know everything's not swept under the rug there's exploration and there's adventure and there is new life just on that warrant and I was just I was getting quite emotional as you were sharing that again Emma it's the second time that I that I watched and then I've heard you say that but I was just caught up in this better and I started to see ya all around the earth and and start to dream with God you know we talked about how seas of fire that we want our church to be you know a glory hub a glory place with a fine of God the sands and that's right and that is gonna happen but I imagine that of all the people of God were commissioned to be loving flames loving glory hobbs philly not all across them and i could see these massive kind of furnaces and the spirit that were church cheese but then i can see all these little flames that were people just covering the face of the earth as God is saying no I am disseminating my people fully ablaze Philly commissioned Philly filled with my glories to bring my glory and to all the earth and as that truth you know the glory of the Lord shall cover the earth as the waters cover the sea and that happens through you that happens through your glow the glory that you carry going everywhere across the earth and so I hope that it just like I'm feeling just now you feel the push of God that we are stamping with both feet and to the Eder whereas all of us Commission's all of us released everybody carrying the glory everybody carrying the fire and that's how nations get changed so change want to ask that before I wax a little look it yeah well you know I think I think there's such freedom in it and which is so contrary to the religious spirit which that delights me and because we are releasing people and actually releasing you know releasing yourselves family of God from the constraints of and if you will the man-made structure that says you can do this and you can't do that and I think what it requires is boldness and courage not just from the leaders and in church to release people and but also from everybody in the family of God to say I can do that I can do that and so I'm really excited to see how the the vast multiplication of the Church of God is literally gonna explode in this decade because of this new era of the new wine and I think it's so exciting and you know this is the hour for everyone just to be released and half Commission I think you prayed over the emerging prophets you know I give you permission for a couple of things I release you and I think you know there's a sense of actually giving people permission is a really good thing and to say you don't almost like not just get on with it but actually you have a you have a call you have Jesus in you nothing nothing is preventing you and so yeah bless you all in in that exploring excitement of the call of God on your life yeah yeah and let me just not planning on on saying this let me just make a comment on sermons if I can and just turning pages in and in my Bible here well I'm a multitasking and but actually if I said to you you know what have you missed about online church I think we probably be talking a lot about corporate worship I can't imagine one of you would be saying oh it it's sermons I mean I miss sermons the most I don't I just don't think that is true and when we started to see people lift their online services and just almost do a like-for-like on zoom' I mean my my in my innards were screaming I think that probably my outsides were screaming - you know that what are you doing you're not understanding the pause I mean you're just doing like for like you know so there was all of that and I really felt like in a conversation with my dad God really put into context from scripture why we were so irritated with the fact that sermons just went from a platform to an online zoom and we couldn't quite understand why why because sermons had started to become about the transference of knowledge and the transference of information and we have become very good at information passing on and that is why we God needed to shake sermonizing and preaching because it had lost its edge of Revelation and it had become about the dissemination of information and so God was saying you are going to have to stop doing that so let me jump straight into psalm 119 and all honor to my dad who raised this verse with me yesterday afternoon and and M started to chat with me about it Sam 119 verse 18 open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law or in your words open my eyes and God has saying to the preachers I'm going to open your eyes so that you can see revelation in my words so that you can see with revelatory eyes a new fresh wonderfulness in the law of God so that you're teaching it comes from a place of revelatory sight not from a place of information and when preaching comes from a place of revelry sorry insight opened my eyes that I may see when that is praised by those who preach our sermons then the sermons will start to be something that we long to hear not that we're jolly well glad we're don't have to be subjected to it any longer and so God is going to loose a revelatory opening of the eyes of teachers and preachers to the revelation and the wonders of Scripture and I promise I'm preaching and teaching is going to be turned on its head preaching and teaching is going to be something that we enjoy rather than go oh here we go again because it is not going to be information it is going to be revelation and there is going to be a spiritual watershed and a spiritual turning point in high teachers and preachers come to us it is a wow wow moment in the history of the church open my leaders eyes what is the revelation that they can see wonders okay now this is all around the new culture in the church now let me tell you about em the global prophetic alliance and what we did as a staff team we wanted to review you know what where we were going who we where all those kind of a planning strategic thought processes and instead of saying what do we want to do or who do we want to employ or what what is important you know in terms of our structure we started to say and you need to say this for your church but I'm gonna push you here you need to ask these questions for your own life what are the things that we would be utterly devastated if they weren't in growth in our organization what would we be devastated if these things were not flourishing in a year's time corporately within a in our in our gatherings or in my individual life you've got to ask those kind of questions what would I be devastated what would I be gutted to bite on what would I I would just hang my head and I would weep with disappointment if these things were not growing in our corporate or our personal life experiences and those those things that you come up with are really the things that you want to talk about because they are going to be what you want your culture to be either your corporate culture or your individual culture on top of artists am do you want to talk to us about what was top of our list oh we've got we've remembered it in the right order miracles signs and wonders Bardem miracles signs and wonders medical signs and wonders I don't you know all of us round up throwing that table when we discussed that came to this unanimous agreement of the the longing in us to be a house where medical signs and wonders took place regularly and consistently that we were really in that place of of of crying out for medical signs and wonders and I think on that as well yeah it made me that level I can't remember they all kind of merge together when we were doing it there was that yearning in us to have an increased ability to shirred revelation cutting-edge revelation as well that we had got to this place where all of us said we are dissatisfied with the level of revelation that werster dang we want another level we are longing for another level and that shaped how we thought and even after that how we changed you know almost every service we would go after some sort of medical breakthrough healing needs we would we would go after that because we know that if that was where we wanted to go we actually had to put legs on that and does a to pursue it and to say to give ourselves to and there were the two ones that just and actually still I think sheep what we think they're shaping what we think about you know know going with the global medical clinics they're shaping what we're thinking about emerging profits and the global prophetic alliance we want medical sayings of wonder and we want a higher higher higher level of Revelation I mean those two spilled I do this instinctively we if if we do not have more signs and wonders we will be gutted if we do not have a higher level of revelation and accuracy of the word Lord we will be gutted now when you understand that but that's what you want you're you're in default culture to be you start to put your money part to it you start to put your man part to it you start to restructure your organization because you realize that you're going to be leading a disappointed people if those things don't manifest who and what leader wants a disappointed people and so we know that you you have to put change champions in place and we start to say was there miracles signs and wonders and an increase in prophecy in this service was there was there miracle signs and wonders and an increase of prophecy in the prayer time was there miracles signs and wonders and an increase of prophecy in that leadership meeting in that children's church in that youth meeting in that in the OAP they hate me calling them the OAP see all these pensioners and the no-limits I said to my older folk you know why don't you have an OE p an old-age pensioners club and they came back quite indignant we're going to call ourselves no limits so that was me told anyway we we have no limits Oh a people and and is that sense of applying that thought that that is to be my core culture across everything and so if you are sitting in your own room by yourself you're you must uh and these are your values to have I worked miracles signs and wonders today have I worked an increase in prophecy today you know have I put that in right now because if I do not put that in right now there is no way it is going to grow you know by acts and dying the line if I want my culture to be miracle signs and wonders and an increase of prophecy there must be a choice right now that I'm going to work a miracle today I'm gonna hear the voice of God today and it doesn't matter whether there's anybody writing to bite me and if I'm completely in isolation and on my own I can increase my ability to hear God's voice by myself and I can work a miracle on the phone for somebody and isn't that know is the moment sarah-jane do on the top we actually had six we've only talked about two and do you want to pick at them you're a couple you you had on the list the increase of the presence of God and spiritual warfare of course yes those were those were who we are is who we are is that desire for more of God that desire for more of his presence more of his glory more of his ways in the midst of us and so yeah that was um that actually catalyzed us to begin our House of Prayer more formally and so we always had prayer in the building we always had prayer in our and family is it where we always had intercession as a core value as a core placed on the leadership team even from the beginning of GPC ma you have that in place but this sense of actually we needed to take it to that next stage and so we formalized the Glasgow prophetic Center House of Prayer which is now it will be now global prophetic Alliance House of Prayer but that sense of actually we needed somebody to sit in that place of leadership to oversee that and so and I oversee that with a lady rose my only new heads up our House of Prayer and we have added prayer watch after prayer watch after prayer watch as more people have come in to the House of Prayer to steward the fire on the altar and actually the word of the Lord was about King Solomon and how he fortified cities but at the same time he put fire on the altar daily and so we ensured that actually we had fire of incense on our altar in our building every single day apart from a Saturday which was our Sabbath day and which we felt the Lord say that was that was good to do that and and then we were fortifying the city of Glasgow and other cities that we were praying for and on the back of that this this very much our dominant warfare edge as prophets and it's who we are as Celtic prophets and we love to sit in the presence of God we love to get deep and soak and feel his presence and encounter but we love to come in that place of of warfare and come out fighting to advance the kingdom of God and my my favorite if you will my favorite scripture and I think this holds all of what we do is spiritual warfare is from Revelation the kingdoms of our Lord have become the kingdoms up the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ and so for me that is the aim that is always the goal you know we are moving to that and my my heart is for us and in certainly that as the champion of the warfare in the presence of God that we are speeding up the return of the Lord by pushing through and advancing his kingdom with violence and so there's a sense of our worship our prayer and it might be singing in tongues it might be praying in tongues it might be worship advancing the warfare it's not always or eboshit era but sometimes it is and sometimes it's decree and sometimes it's declaration but if you came to any of our meetings whether it's in the house of prayer or any of our staff meetings or even on a Sunday morning or our conferences you will have that flavor of us going deep into the presence of God an encounter and coming out in warfare so I mean let me tell you that you've heard for them let me tell you the six that we decided were like we look if this doesn't increase or improve we're devastated we're and this is where we must have an increase in our culture of miracles signs and wonders we must have an increase of the presence of God we have an increase in accuracy of the prophetic we must have successful vibrant spiritual warfare and the two that we've not men are we must do these things with a spirit of excellence with our fifth and our final six one we must work properly on having an international reach and so those were the six things and of course once you know that that is the culture that you want some reviews leaders you'll have to do this exercise what I would urge you to do it as individual once you know that that's the culture that you want in your home in your family in your life in your church your ministry once those things are named you can start to turn your family or your life or your church around that manpower and money par goes into those things and you start to choose things we actually assign change champions to each of those things on my wider leadership team and they were responsible for praying and for coming up with ideas of how that culture was to go deep we were not going to leave our culture to chance we were not going to have a strategy that was going to be destroyed because our culture was not in the right place and let me read you this first and with this M where we finish it's a little bit unusual but do you remember in the plagues of Egypt that Moses is and Moses and God are unleashing over a pharaoh and it were in the plague of frogs is a horrible moment but Moses says this is Exodus 8 from verse 9 Moses said to Pharaoh I leave to you the honor of setting the time for me to pray for you and your officials and your people that you and your house may be rid of the frogs and so there is this there's this remarkable thing where Moses is saying look you set the timing Moses Ain tomorrow you set the timing of when you want to be free you set the timing of where you want when you want to be limit rated you set the timing Pharaoh I'm gonna give you the honor of setting the timing are you hearing this it wasn't God who set the timing God says the honor of choosing when it happens is up to you and then Pharaoh oh the can I just say this the idiot the idiot says in verse 10 tomorrow what kind of thinking is that when you could have started freedom and liberty and the best days of your life where you could have had a complete turnaround and God says what time do you want it and Pharaoh says oh boy tomorrow do you not want to go why did you not say right now I I mean right now we gotta play the frogs I'm invite knowing would be a brilliant time God and so I feel like God is saying in all of this do not say to God that's a lovely thought from those prophets in Glasgow we will work on it tomorrow don't be those people okay I want you to be the people yes Astrid you're ahead of me no Husain I know I'm gonna start to work on all of those cultures that I want to see in my heart in my family I'm not gonna go God one day Oh God - oh god I really want to walk into this you know Oh God you know and there's gonna be a moment where you're gonna use me and I'm just excited about the moment that's at hand that you're going to use me and know that is not the kind of prayer my family come on I don't want you to miss I it has to be today it's a no you want to say right we're gonna sit down as a family I'm gonna sit down with my friend I'm gonna hold myself accountable to my friend about the things I would be gutted to bite if they did not increase in my life you may not be a church leader you may not get to influence your church culture like we can do for our church culture but you can certainly grab hold of your old life got on the phone to a friend and say these are my five cultural must have increases in my life who would I bless you I bless you to know the culture that you want to steward I bless you to be able to walk into it and and and thank you for allowing us to get hot and worked up today remember that we have opened the doors of miracle clinic we have just so many clients who want a miracle from across the face of the globe and I need volunteers and so on our face are not face it on our website and you will see the link scroll I actually think it's not you have to use that link to get to it don't you so make sure you see the link that is on the screen you can only get to it using that link and if you want to be a volunteer with us in miracle clinics across the face of the globe go and get the form online fill it in and apply to be a volunteer not take you too long it's only color pages read the volunteer role description that we've got join in with us and we've had quite number of applications in yet we just opened it yesterday quite number of applications already I will be reading those with Nicola over the weekend and we will be emailing and next week and you know with some more information of when those training dates start and how and we are going to administrate that so that you can get trained and you can get a place to work miracles in other people's lives thank you for those who work on it summer you we're on it fast yesterday but for those of you spend time over the weekend and send those and there's no deadline there's no timing just as and when you can and the trainings not going to be happen happening immediately immediately because that we need to get the admins so at first if somebody at the top of the our said if you have applied for emerging profits for the new intake emerging profits we were supposed to receive you in March then the course lot don't happened we thought we would receive you in September and Scotland is too sharp dying for that so we're probably going to have to postpone our emerging profits new intake until actually January we reckon which is really frustrating and and so you've nobody's missed out on that okay it's still in the glorious pause and we're kind of waiting to see what our First Minister Nicola Sturgeon says but it's likely to not happen until at next year so bless you and remember that and we are not on tomorrow we are filming we are filming some schools Sarah Jane what school are you filming tomorrow I am starting to film the school of the seer tomorrow which will enable you and to and navigate the spirit realm to activate and really
