lord father that that they will bear much fruit in their lives lord father that this message will do something for their lives and bless them and thank you for your presence even right now in this place in jesus name i pray amen well today's message is freedom in the presence of the lord we are now approaching the month for august 2021 and praise the lord for that this is the month that the lord said to me way back in april 2020 that a new virus or a new disease will be released by the enemy many will fall victims young and old vaccinated or non-vaccinated but also this is the month where the lord said that he will release help from heaven for those who diligently seek and ask if you seek and ask it is because you have a need that is vital to your life so let's begin with the scripture let's now turn to the book of matthew chapter 7 and we will read verse 7 to 11. ask and it will be given to you seek and you will find knock that shall be opened to you for everyone who asks receive and he who seeks finds and to him who knocks it will be opened or what man is there among you who if his son asks for bread will give him a stone or if he asks for a fish will give him a serpent if you then being evil know how to give good gifts to your children how much more will your father who is in heaven give you good things to those who ask him my dear brothers and sisters this is a very important scripture to know and to own you know scriptures are meant to be owned personally by everyone who reads it because it is such a blessing to know that god will come to our rescue for those who believe when we believe the scriptures the scriptures itself turn into life for our benefit let's turn to another scripture in the book of deuteronomy let's turn to deuteronomy chapter 4 and read verse 29 to 31 but from there you will seek the lord your god and you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul and when you are in distress and all these things come upon you in the latter days when you turn to the lord your god and obey his voice for the lord your god is a merciful god he will not forsake you nor destroy you nor forget the covenant of your fathers which he swore to them so again this scripture confirms that the lord will hear us and give us what we need if we diligently seek and ask him now have you do you have a covenant with god well a covenant with god is a covenant when you choose to follow god for the rest of your life for those who don't have covenant with god isn't it about time you have one today ask god ask the lord jesus christ to come into your life so you can experience the same things as we do right i will tell you now to an example in the bible it is about the samaritan woman at the world getting some water from this we can learn a lesson from her to want more from god that is available to us right now so let's turn to the book of john gospel of john chapter 4 and read verse 13 to 24. jesus answered if you drink from jacob's well you will be thirsty again but if anyone drinks the living waters i give them they will never be thirsty again for when you drink the waters i give you it becomes a gushing fountain of the holy spirit flooding you with endless light so when we drink the waters of christ we enter into an endless life with him verse 15 the woman replied let me drink the water so i will never be thirsty again and won't have to come back here to draw water jesus said go get your husband and bring him here back but i am not married the woman answered that's true jesus said for you have been married five times and now you are living with a man who is not your husband you have told the truth the woman changed the subject you must be a prophet so tell me this why do our fathers worship god on this nearby mountain but you people teach the jerusalem is the place where we must worship who is right jesus responded believe me my dear woman the time has come when you will worship the father neither on the mountain nor in jerusalem but in your heart your people don't really know the one they worship but we jews worship out of our experience for it's from the jews that salvation is available from now on worshiping the father will be a matter of the of the right place but with the right heart again when you ask the lord you need to ask with the right heart and he said continue for god is spirit and he longs to have sincere worshipers who adore him in the realm of the spirit and in the truth when we ask the lord with the right heart we enter into the realm of the spirit and in truth that is in the presence of god god will hear you my rich my dear brothers and sisters it is time today for you to make the right choices the right choices is so vital for our existence the time must come for god to adjust our hearts and open us to off to more of who he really is [Music] there is so much more of god to discover but we have to make the choice to learn from our father god perhaps today the hardest thing to do is where do we start well we have to start in ourselves we need to rejoice begin to rejoice for what god has done for you begin to rejoice for the things that god has given you i know sometimes we have gone through life that hurt us a lot well even for the suffering we need to rejoice and thank god because out of those suffering we have changed for the better right we all want our way our preference will always be to have the perfect surrounding with lots of peace which we could float on but it is making the choice to rejoice that sets us apart as god's people rejoicing in the midst of difficulty is giving god what he wants which is surrender worship that's why it says in the scripture we must worship him in spirit and in truth the moment we begin to rejoice we're actually worshiping god right when our heart refuses to focus on anything but god we make the wrong choices we need to honor him in our praises when we leave our pain behind and turn our faces to heaven with joy and celebration our hearts are changed and eventually our circumstance will also change our circumstances will change because we enter into a freedom in the presence of god you see in the presence of god there's such a great freedom pain fear sickness loss of jobs regrets will lead to christ as our circumstances will turn for good if we can have the right attitude of joy throughout our life then the secret is found in these three words jesus is lord because when jesus is lord for you everything will change for you no matter what circumstance you find yourself in when you seek and ask the lord and believe what you're asking for it will come to pass now we need to start putting our trust in nothing else but the lord when we put our trust in the things of the world we are being double-minded and god says beware for those who are double-minded because you ask a miss so when you ask the lord believe in your heart what you're asking the lord for when you pray believe in your heart don't let doubts come in then you miss out of entering into that freedom which god prayer provides for us so let's let's now look at the song of solomon's chapter 8 verse 5. this describes a process and look what it says who is this coming out from the desert leaning on her lover the answer it is you our lover is jesus christ the desert represents suffering has been defeated when we enter and make the right choices and adopt a life of joy in the lord so no matter what suffering we go to we always have to praise the lord said lord thank you and we rejoice now let's turn to the the book of 1 corinthians chapter 10 and read verse 11 to 17. i am reading from the passion translation look what it says all the tests they endured on their way to the wilderness are a symbolic picture an example that provides us with a warning so that we can learn through what they experience for we live in a time when the purpose of all the ages past is now completing its goal within us so beware if you think it could never happen to you lest your pride becomes your downfall and look at this next scripture a way of escape we all experience times of testing which is normal for every human being but god will be faithful to you he will screen and filter the severity nature and timing of every test or trial you'll face so that you can bear it and each test is an opportunity to trust him more for along the way for along with every trial god has provided for you a way of escape that will bring you out of it victoriously you see there's always a way of escape that's the thing that's missing in this world with the lord when we begin to trust him with a joyful heart when we ask him he will provide that way of escape remember what the lord said for those who ask i will come and help them verse 14 my cherished friends keep on running far away from idolatry i know i am writing to thoughtful people so carefully consider what i say for when we pray for the blessing of the communion cup isn't it our core participation with the blood of jesus and the bread that we distribute isn't it the bread of our core participation with the body of christ for although we are many we become one loaf of bread and one body as we fish together on one loaf my dear brothers and sisters the test will always come what we're going through now with this covered 19 restriction it's a test for every one of us and i hope you all agree with me that when we read the bible right and when we see what the apostles of christ and the followers of christ you know went through and survived the persecution and suffering you and i will also survive it god will strengthen you he will give you peace in your heart so that you don't fear so when we have peace in our hearts we will not fear and you will be you know as like a strong tower for many people you're gonna be a survivor all right and it all begins with the attitude of heart this is a must the apostles had a good attitude in the heart when they went through sufferings and persecution the power and compassionate of christ moved him to heal and provide comfort to all those who are in need and today likewise is the same the power and compassion of christ will move and help us and will bless us and heal us from all manners of sickness and diseases right and right now i want you to ask the lord and speak your circumstances unto him and tell him what you need okay let's move on our attitude to believe needs some adjustment and the lord was just showing me on this scripture right when he died on the cross he provided the healing for our bodies for our memories for our emotions if our thoughts are bitter cast the cross into that attitude if our thoughts are harboring hatred and unforgiveness cast the cross into that attitude jesus died for all of us so that we can have a better life so that we can come into salvation if our bodies are sick handicapped deteriorating unable to call cast the cross into those weaknesses if our emotions are up and down held captive by darkness and simply unreliable feeling justified to be offended casts the cross onto those emotions healing comes as we seek the abundant provisions of the cross today god is opening up a new way of direction for us to follow all we need to do is to diligently follow the lord my dear brothers and sisters i'm not speaking to you just for the sake of speaking i'm speaking to you because the words that i read to the bible have come alive in my life and i want you to experience the same thing every time you are in trouble ask the lord for help and be at peace do not doubt when you ask the lord because when you doubt you you you are you know mistrusting the lord you are coming to a point where you say will he help me or will he not help me believe when you ask the lord and then it will all come to pass and wait you know you know it's not like a microwave it will not work like a migraine you know when you put food in the microwave and you press that button and all of a sudden it heats up when you ask the lord you're gonna let the lord do it in his time and he will always come at the right time amen so let's look now at the new direction which the lord is trying to show us right when after the lockdown began in sydney australia i purpose in my heart to seek the lord for direction and what is needed to be accomplished especially here for australia and he brought me a plan and he gave me this scripture and he's in the book of john chapter 17 verse 20 to 24. and it's a prayer of the lord see what it says verse 20 i pray not only for this but also for those who will trust in me because of their word that they may all be one just as you father are reunited with me and i with you i pray that they may be united with us so that the world may believe that you have sent me so the lord jesus is praying here and he's asking for unity in the midst of us verse 22 the glory which you have given to me i have given to them so that they may be one just as we are one i united with them and you with me and so that they may be completely one and the world does realize that you sent me and that you have loved me just as you have loved that just as you have loved me verse 24 father i want those you have given to me be with me where i am so that they may see my glory which you have given me because you have loved me before the creation of the world my dear blessings sisters there is now a need and this is the prayer of christ that we all be one in christ so that we can move together why is he so important in our lives right now sometimes in our lives we hear things and we begin we become critical of what we hear and the lord does not want us to be critical he doesn't want us you know to judge others but we need to ask the lord what is happening all the time so that we can be one with him when we all ask to be one with god we ourselves will be one with one another right so after reading these scriptures i knew that the lord wanted us to see his people united building the gospel of the kingdom and not the denomination kingdom i was shown that what happens when we are confronted by disaster in the midst of other christians of other different assemblies the end result would be praying and worshiping and definitely not discussing what we believe as part of our doctrines so when the lord took me there immediately i was taken into a big general assembly meeting which was surrounded by heavenly angels and hosts the saints draz we were just continually praying and worshipping as this was going on empty wheelchairs were piling up by the side of the stage all mother of healing occurring people were asking what do we do next nobody was preaching but occasionally a minister would get up to speak the oracles of god and give instructions as to what was happening many were receiving the holy spirit and speaking in tongues as the holy spirit gave others i could see the blind and the death healed i could see angels moving in the midst of us and being inside assigned to go further with their assignments my dear brothers and sisters all it takes us today is to get together and pray and worship god the rest god will do god will manifest in our meetings god will manifest in your homes if you decide to gather together in your house with your family and just worship god and just pray you will begin to feel the presence of the lord and manifestations will come people could get healed you know things will open up for you that you've never even could have imagined and this momentum right is right now given to the people of god right to partake in this great awakening that is being released from heaven god is helping us to live a life of freedom when we move and partake of heaven when we come together in worship when we come together in prayer just worship and pray doesn't need nobody needs to be preaching just god's presence will be there and it will do the rest so as i rested in what i saw i felt that our chains have been broken our movement to do more for christ was opened our focus is changing our gathered together will be for the people who experience the glory of the lord and to be realigned by the lord himself so when we gather together in prayer and worship god is realigning us isn't that great god is a good god right we don't have to do much we just have to go and ask and pray and worship god so when you when you are alone you know and sometimes you feel like worshiping god just worship god just sing songs let the lord know that you're rejoicing in what he has given you our own salvation there's much to rejoice in our own salvation right what god has given you your husband your wife your children your grandchildren rejoice right be happy so now we can start to to gather as a family right we start with our family then we buy some close friends or we can start with the church and invite other church assemblies to join us in just prayer and worship and when we do that we begin to worship god in spirit and in truth right remember god is building his kingdom not our denomination church kingdom and that's why we need to begin to again begin to rekindle the fire of the holy spirit through prayer and worship which is very simple right i believe god is doing is about to do something good for all of us in spite of the bad news that we hear every day and i want to just encourage everyone here don't spend too much time and looking at the news on your phones on your computer spend some time more on waiting on god you know whatever you hear in the news god can tell you himself when you spend time at the presence of the lord at the feet of the lord he will tell you what is happening the real truth right so when you hear the news outside you don't have to believe every news just hear what god is telling you for your life and believe that there will be a confirmation in your heart confirming the things that you're hearing from god to be true and just run with those thoughts go with the lord you know just run with the things that god has given you rather than just spending time endless hours in that phone in that computer in that ipad listening to the news of what's happening and what what's not happening just spend time with the lord now what i want to go further with the instructions the lord gave me he then took me to luke chapter 11. i wanna read verse two to four okay so this is what it says verse two luke chapter eleven verse two so he said to them when you pray say our father in heaven hallowed be your name your kingdom come your will be done as it is in heaven give us day by day our daily bread and forgive us our sins for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us and do not lead us into temptation but deliver us from the evil one when we pray for our daily bread let us find the manner that god provides for us to feed us god releases manna from heaven so that we can eat spiritual you see when god gives us the food from heaven we will be nourished spiritually rather than the food or the bread that we eat daily the bread of heaven is more important to us right now each one must gather in their own manner so you need to gather your own manner don't depend on somebody to do it for you and ask can you give me some because let's look at the scriptures all right this is what the lord is saying right this is what the lord commanded us each one is to gather as much as he wants to eat gather an omer for every for each person you have in your tent this is in exodus chapter 16 verse 16. i'll repeat it again this is the thing which has commanded let every man gather it according to each one's need one armor for each person according to the number of persons let every man take for those who are in the tent so no one can gather for you daily your portion you must be the one that arises and gathers to your spirit your fresh provision of life and power of jesus on a daily basis it is the it is an immature person that always has to have someone there to teach him or to do it for him but the holy spirit wants to unveil jesus to you personally as you wait in the morning before him books are good but the order of the book the holy spirit is best amen number two manna must be gathered in early morning every morning the people gathered as much as each one needed and when the sun grew hot it would melt away this is an exodus chapter 16 verse 21 mana was gathered early before other things filled their attention if they waited too long the heat of the day would cause the mana to melt away your daily portion of christ awaits for you with every sunrise blessed are those who seek him early which is in proverbs chapter 8 verse 34. again i'll repeat blessed is a man who listens to me watching daily at my gates waiting at the post of my doors the manner of his presence gives us a new and powerful beginning each day growth into the fullness of christ is a daily gathering of his virtue into our inner being we must seek our daily bread we must ask for our daily bread don't let the day's destruction keep you from unholy hour of devotion are you finding him before the sun gets hot so when you get up in the morning guys and this i have to acknowledge my wife is good at this she gets up so early in the morning to seek the presence of the lord and this is what god really wants us get up early in the morning seek the presence of the lord now me i stay up a bit late and i'm seeking god in the very early hours of the morning hour one or two o'clock i'm seeking the presence of the lord but if you're you sleep right through get up at four o'clock give up five o'clock and seek god's presence ask him for your daily money before the sun comes up and the mana melts away okay number three the manner was gathered by stooping law right with ben denise the hebrews was took to gather the deadly portions manna did not grow on trees rather it fell to the ground they did not need to reach up high but they had to bow down law we must humble our hearts and be willing to stoop law in order to find the angel's food for our soul come hungry to the living bread and you will be fair and he will never turn you away without giving you your portion are you know somebody said to me a long time ago the way up is down on your knees when we go down on our knees right we enter into a you know into a to a realm where heaven becomes closer to us we go high into the heavyweight when you go down to your knees and start seeking god in the early hours of the morning heaven will open wide before you it will override before you you will see you will experience things you never experienced before amen number four some gathered more some gathered less the israelites did as they were told some gathered a lot some only a little and when they measured it up by the omer the one who gathered a lot did not have any to spare and the one who gathered a little was left wanting each one gathered as much as he needed this is the verse exodus chapter 16 verse 17 to 21. let me repeat then the children of israel did so and gathered some more and some less so when they measured it by homer he who gathered much had nothing left over and he who got little had no luck everyone every man had gathered according to each one's need and moses said let no one leave anything of it till morning so verse 20 notwithstanding they did not hit moses but some of them left part of it until morning and it bred worms and stuck and moses was angry with them so they gathered it every morning every man according to his knee and when the sun became hot it melted this is true with us in the body of christ today some are ready each morning to gather as much as possible they can do while others gather as little as they can to get by we each gather as much as we need are you the one who needs a lot from christ there is plenty to spare enough to go around his life is a fountain that never runs dry so again seeking and asking god diligently for what we need god will never run out he will always have more than what you expect and uh and i know that god gives abundantly you know when you are on your last breath you know sometimes people are you know are dying you know and they're on the last breath and all of a sudden life comes back into them and all of a sudden they get healed right so i've seen this happen me and my wife with people who have been sick even in the hospital you know they expected to die the doctors expect them to die and all of a sudden with one prayer they're you know they they become alive they come alive all the sicks of this all the sickness disappears so when you ask for the lord he will provide for you diligently ask the lord there must not be a day when you don't ask the lord ask the lord and even when you're praying and asking the lord thank him as you ask the lord many times when i pray and ask the lord for in the things that i need i always end up with that prayer and i say thank you father for hearing and answering my prayer you see when you thank the lord you're actually trusting in god and you are showing god how much you trust him and god will provide for you just thank him keep on thanking the lord you know when he gives you thank the lord okay number five what was gathered must be consumed on the same day the moses said to them no one should keep any of it until tomorrow however some of them ignored moses and structures they kept part of it until morning but it was ruined full of maggots and become and it became it began to stink that was in exodus chapter 6 verse 20. we must ask for our daily portions and then rise to seek out truth that's not lived out in the life of a believer eventually began begins to smell you know if we say we are christians then we we need to follow what we read we need to obey it we cannot just say we cannot just say i'm say i'm a christian and you don't follow the things that god is showing you right we can store away the bible doctrines on a shop but if we don't leave them out each day we become hypocrites and hypocrites and hypocrisy things we will either put on the colon of christ or the scent of self-destruction right don't worry about storing up enough to last for two days yesterday's bread won't cut out for you you must feed on him daily as a living bread we will really we really are the one who will eat the food of our lord and so we must eat it daily amen you cannot eat today twice as much for tomorrow so every day eat as much as you can and that's about it as we feed on christ we are actually take part of the miracle he has provided for us in the spirit soon we will become like a golden jar full of his bread the church is about to become a golden jar serving the bread to all the nations you know i remember the reason why i'm saying this if god remember when jesus was preaching and he was in the desert or in the mountains and all these followers came to him and they were hearing what he was saying and all of a sudden the apostle says lord send them home because you know they must be hungry they must be tired no we can't treat them all guess what the response of the lord was right and the lord said to the apostles the disciples feed them and when they said look we only have two loaves of fishes and and and i do love some bread i don't know how many pieces of bread anymore but they only had a few and the lord took that and multiplied it so whatever you have when you dedicated to the lord and you ask the lord for provision it will come to pass i know in the last days okay this is very hard to believe you know i i believe in the last days when we don't have any more food all we have to do is pray and command the ground to deliver the food that we need you can ask the ground and i asked the lord in prayer lord we need some potatoes and potato will turn up from the ground lord we need some camping and the pumpkins will come up from the ground so when we enter into that presence of the lord we have freedom we don't have to worry about anything the only thing we have to do is rise up early and pray and ask the lord lord give us what we need ask the lord for what you need and this is what god said even though there will be diseases even though people will be dying left and right young and you know young and old vaccinated or not vaccinated when we come to the lord guess what you it is not going to affect you at all god doesn't spare you because you have asked for the living breath have asked for the living waters the endless life waters which the samaritan woman wanted so this is it my mother brothers and sisters experience the freedom god gives you today don't wait for tomorrow today is a good day to start seeking god for what we need every day we need to pray every day we need to ask every day we need to believe what we're asking for this is the day that the lord has made for you use it wisely don't spend time with the things of this world you know we all want to know what covenant is going to bring us i tell you why best is to be in the presence of the lord ask the lord what you need to do next amen and on the meantime we keep spending time with one another praying for one another and asking god for our needs you know that's why at the beginning of this message i did want to thank everyone because there's a lot of people there who's been praying for this ministry of ours for stella and myself he's been praying and diligently following us i know some of you are following us from from overseas and i want to thank you for being so diligently and may the lord open more doors for you and answer your prayers amen i want to leave i wanna end this nation with those thoughts and i also want to pray before i go i want to ask and really ask god to release the things that you need in this life not the things that you want the things that you need because we may want a lot of things but we do also need a lot of things all right okay just close your eyes let's just power our heads father we just thank you for your message lord we thank you that we can come before your presence we thank you lord god that each one of us has been blessed by you we thank you lord because you are showing us a better way to come into your presence you're showing us a freedom that is not given by this world you're showing us how to enter into your presence and to be blessed and father i pray for everyone who has been listening that you release from heaven the things that they need right now there are people who are needing your healing who are needing finances who i needed a restoration of broken marriages or broken relationship father i pray that you release your blessing upon all these people you release love father your desire upon all these people lord and father i also pray lord for those who have sown into your ministry lord that you will continually multiply that sin unto every one of them the father and bless each and every one of them also their husbands and their wives lord father their children and their grandchildren bless everyone in jesus name i pray amen well we come close to an end of this message thank you for watching and may god bless you all amen [Music] you
