Hearing God and Real Prophecies - Shawn Bolz

[Music] I'm gonna talk to you this morning just about the incentive of hearing God's voice and I believe it for Christians it's one of our greatest greatest tools and one of our greatest invitations is to believe that God didn't just save us but he wants communion in connection with us and that jesus promised in John 14 and 15 and 16 in different ways that the Holy Spirit would come and he would speak to us not just what was in his own agenda but he would actually relate the perceptions of the Father to us so I'm gonna talk to you for just a minute about that and I was thinking about even just being here I was at the hotel two nights ago I got into Australia and I just got in from New Zealand I was really tired and my team was already here or in transition to get here and so I ordered Nando's which i think is amazing and we have an American version called chick-fil-a it's really good but Nando's is good too and so it's not really an American version this is chicken and our Nando's and that the woman who delivered Nando's to me I had one of those moments I love how God creates socially awkward moments I had one of those moments where I just felt compelled by God to say something to her and I was like what do you want me to tell her got it what what would be good I saw a little picture on my you bur screen I was like what what do you want to save this girl and she was foreign she wasn't an Australian but she was a white woman from somewhere who knows where and she stops and gives me the food she's about to just take off it's like that quick you know and I said hey whatever's going on with your father I feel like he's has a health crisis and that God wants to restore your relationship with him and she's like how do you know that it begins just sob not just cry this sob and I'm like because I'm a Christian and I've reached out to kind of hug her and like you know she kind of pulls back and I'm like I'm telling you got to open your heart to him though you have to forgive him you have to allow God to give you forgiveness for your dad so you can actually because this might be your last chance you know and she's and she said I can't believe you know this this is crazy and I didn't know what to do I was so tired and so socially awkward like Jesus loves you and he loves your family and she's like thank you and took off and it was one of those moments from like I won't know until we turn to what that was all about but the fact that I knew that there was something going on she's sobbing I was worried for her life driving on her little scooter sobbing that hard I start crying I was like whoa what just happened like that was so wild but I just think you know we when we think about hearing God's voice we don't think he's gonna be that practical he actually knows everything that's going on your life he knows all the information about you and the father himself had an original design from the beginning of eternity where there's no beginning meaning when he started to dream up this aids this people this earth this these industries all the things about us he spent the equivalent as a master designer craftsman of millions of years just on you dreaming of what you would be like dreaming of the resources he wanted to bring into your life dreaming of the best version of you and he had this plan in his heart and we delineate from that dream but Jesus came and he paid a price not just to go oh I guess they're okay now and can at least go to heaven they're kind of messy but we'll get him that far you know but he actually paid a price on the cross so that you can be restored to God's original plan the original version of you and what I love about hearing God's voice is that when we hear his voice and when we when we hear his heart we start to see what he originally planned in the first place that means when you look at somebody you start to see a version of them that they may not even see you start to see the best version that the very the very full version of if they had full potential release and unlocked in them and we're not called to see what people aren't doing or what what the enemy is doing we're actually called to see what God's doing and what is in God's heart that's what jesus paid a price to restore us to he had resurrection so we can be resurrected with him into the fullness of a God planned in the first place I love the prophetic the prophetic is just hearing God's voice and when you hear his voice it gives you the opportunity to restore the identity of whole industries and Nations when you hear one word from God it creates different options that didn't exist before and I think of in the context of what we've all had a coach in school or we've had a teacher we've had somebody maybe in a church who when they spoke to you about something about you and they said something that was an upgraded version of you that you never thought of before or maybe that you were insecure about or you didn't believe when they spoke it to you with authority something inside of you said oh my gosh you're right have you ever had that happen where somebody said something to you and you're like I am that that is Who I am and like I didn't think that before but now I think you know these you saw yourself through their viewpoint that's what the prophetic does as we cause people to see something they wouldn't have seen without hearing God's voice so I'm gonna read out of first Corinthians two real fast and I'm gonna tell you a story but first Corinthians two verse 9 however it's written no eye has seen no ear has heard no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit the spirit searches all things even the deepest things of God for who among men knows the thoughts of man except a man's spirit within him and the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except God's Spirit but we have not received a sphere this world but we've received the Spirit of God in other words God purposely connected us to his Holy Spirit and in this connection we start to perceive the innermost thoughts of God and when we perceive those thoughts we start to know what no eye has seen no ear has heard the things that God has in store for those who love him we start to perceive that for even people who don't know God yet I love how Jesus treated everybody as if they were in full value you know he says come be fish be fishers of men not just fishermen come be my disciples before they were ready then he anoints them to be apostles which means you're gonna lead a search and build with them even before he went to the cross you start calling them apostles and these guys they weren't the brightest bulbs in the bunch you know they were they were teenagers and they were roughhousers and they were just you know they were vying for position of who's gonna be as general they didn't have even a concept as he would talk of how to understand it they even came to him in John 17 and said why do you speak in all these unclear ways it's so unfair like why don't you just say normal things so your best friends misunderstand you you don't understand the authority structure of what you're bringing and you're still calling them the ones that God is gonna make the Apostles to build a church on why would Jesus do that because you saw something he'd sit in crowds of people and tell crowds my father is building a houses in heaven for you right now places for you to dwell with me in eternity I mean there's no way that modern Christians would preach that message to an unsaved crowd my father loves you so much that just in case he's planning the most intricately beautiful dream home that you could ever live in in heaven for you right now and even if you choose to say no to him he's still gonna build it because he loves you that much because he's planning for you to live with him forever I know what a different perception of God right but the reason why he could say that is because he was so in touch with the father's love and desire and design that he couldn't help but treat people as though they were worthy of it and it caused a different result in the people that he connected to as a matter of fact most of the disciples were not very smart as far as compared to intelligence to society its 1st Corinthians 1 when Paul says we weren't the smartest we weren't the most brilliant we weren't educated we weren't we weren't born of oil blood but God chose you the weakest things of the world if you ever think you have to be cool in church you know we're in Hollywood and in Los Angeles and my team we go to the war zones red-light districts and then we have a church in Hollywood and and then you know entertainment industry stuff and and it's so funny because when we first got there were like we're the least cool people in the world why is God sending us to Hollywood this is so weird God like we love Hollywood but we don't understand like why you're sending us like we're not like the Karl lensses of the world he wasn't around there but you know we're not that we're not those kinds of people who are cooked just naturally who's cool and I'm like I get socially awkward all the time I mean I was like I don't know what to do with my hands I don't know you know like put him down shot okay you know he sends you to places that you're not qualified for and in that you start to pull on who he is and his nature instead of yours you start to call on what God is not who you're not and even in that like he's given us His Holy Spirit to bridge gaps in society but we have to start with bridging gaps in ourselves he wants you to be your own best personal profit do you realize that one third of the Bible is about profits is that crazy one third of the Bible and yet we hardly talk about it nowadays no I don't want to talk about establishing profits right now but I'm gonna talk about establishing you as somebody who can hear from God powerfully for your own life your you know have you ever had somebody who comes up and gives you some kind of message and says I feel like you're gonna move sooner they give you a directional message that you just know isn't God have you read another Christian do that anybody ever had it and other Christian do that quite a few of you and when they do that and you just saw that God you don't have to rebuke from one go you're a false prophet you're evil you just have to know you you just have to go home if it's a good person that you really love you just go bless you if it's a person you don't love you say go away bless you but the whole world is wondering if God has thoughts about issues of justice issues of racism issues of economy issues of national security these kinds of things the world's wondering does God care and the beautiful thing is he does and God started to give us an awareness that he doesn't just want to come and get a bunch of people saved he wants to come and bring a mature idea that transforms the earth to the church and we can't do that without hearing his voice now the beautiful thing is there's no pressure of performance on it as a matter of fact I'm usually the most profound but I don't as far as the unsaved people when I don't hear the Lord's words for them but when they hear the Lord's voice I remember a young guy comes up to my room delivering room service and I was on the phone with my wife and I said honey just fit this guy's depressed I want to talk to him for a minute and he was like really just heavy and it was in San Francisco and he was leaving my room I just signed the paper and I go wait wait come back here real fast are you okay it's a good leaven o'clock at night he's like okay I'm fine I said no you what happened like you seem really sad he goes my girlfriend just broke up with me nice to come in here I'm a pastor I want to talk to you for a minute do you have time to come in here he goes yeah you're my last delivery and I wouldn't come in because I was in my boxer shorts over San Francisco but he he came in sat down and I said just thought I'd add some humor there but it was true and I he came to sat down and I said so is this the one is this one you want to marry any guess I don't know and I said okay I'm a Christian and I said you know what that isn't he goes well kind of I mean I've heard of Christians I said you know anything about Jesus he goes no didn't even know about crosses like he that he didn't know why what people wore crosses on their necks he had never heard Jesus died on a cross he'd never even knew any of that just this guy who grew up in San Francisco unchurched unreached and so I said well we're gonna do something right now I said we're gonna pray together and we're gonna ask God about your relationship with a scroll he's gonna tell you something in your heart it's gonna sound like your thoughts but you'll know it's him he was like okay and he was so desperate he was so broken he was so isn't that verge of tears so he's like sits there and someone's paying attention to him I was just present with them so he did this you know and so we close our eyes and I said Holy Spirit II said the Holy Spirit said show me is this the one I'm supposed to marry is this who you made for me and he says that he goes oh this isn't the one I said how do you know guys I know I just know I mean God had to has to be real I just know this was that he is the word toxic relationship I said so that means that this is kind of like a good thing like that's broken off right because it has it's a really good thing and I said what are you doing in life I they were working at the hotel but what's your dream cuz there's only 24 years old 23 years old what's your dream is I don't have one I said we're gonna do another thing that's of close our eyes to close eyes for the Holy Spirit what's your dream for my life what would bring me the most alive and we do I'm trying to get a word form right because I think I have to be profound or help him because I'm leading him in this experience and he goes I'm a musician I said you love music he goes yeah no I'm really a musician I the division but my dad's so disappointed they told me if I ever pursue music it'll never work out for me and so I'm in host hotel management program for internship and I hate this job they said I'm not I don't even deliver food I just had to do it because the they were understaffed in the room and I had to run over and do it I said well obviously God wanted you here so you're a musician I said well what does that mean - that goes I don't know I just but when you asked me that question I felt like that same voice came in my head and said you're a musician I said well let's ask God a step you can take towards that and it's like I'm afraid because my dad my dad doesn't want me to do this I said well you should be more afraid about missing your whole life because God Himself is telling you that music is part of who you are and you don't want to live under your dad's disappointment do you we know where that's gonna end up no I don't so I said God take his dad's disappointment off of him and that expectation off of his heart and show him a step if you want him to take a step towards music and immediately he sees his uncle in California he knows he's supposed to move 10 days in comfort into Southern California and trying to pursue this music school down in Southern California where I live in Los Angeles I'm like this is awesome this is so have you ever thought of this guy's never he as I know he lives down there I've thought about that music school before but it was like a pipe dream and he goes but I mean when I think of this now it's like he goes God's bring it alive in my heart this is an unsaved guy who still has not learned about the cross because hearing from God is powerfully or more powerful than some of you do I'm like this is awesome so we prayed together again and then and then I start to tell about Jesus in the cross this is you want to do want Holy Spirit to be with you all the time like this there's like yes please yes I said what he will he will have to pray and he receives Jesus he's like I never knew I never knew that's what it was like this is so awesome like I totally get it and we start to go after stuff and I'm like you know you're just giving him everything that you've done wrong you're just gonna give it to him and Jesus paid for the cross and so I said anything you want to just tell him right now just give it to him and he starts to say God every girl that I've ever had sex with when I took something from her I just give it back to you to give to her all that innocence that was lost in me in them and he's doing like soul tied deliverance on himself like he's just going for I'm like I'm like you're the best centering healer you've never heard the word in her healing like this is crazy it was so good and so by the time it's all done I'm like this was the easiest ministry appointment of my life I didn't prophesy I didn't really pray I just prayed for him not I didn't you know it's pretty directly for him I just told him what to pray and God just orchestrated the whole thing and I thought Lord before I came to this hotel and got this room service this young man had no options was in the toxic relationship that he might have gone back into I was in hotel administration when he's called to be one who leads people and creative song and after just by giving you a little spare time in my life because I've surrendered in times like this isn't worship when you guys just had this incredible worship time what a great worship team you know there's incredible worship time and you're surrendering to God and these times count because when you're surrendering from God here you may not know it but like three days from now he's gonna be like hey you remember when you said I can have everything hey can I can you go talk to that woman you're like oh I didn't say you could get me to do that and he's like you said everything you said I can have you I can have your time you're like well she walks by three more times you know the world right now is is hungry for something and I was studying I studied neuroscience as a hobby so there's a neuroscientist named Elizabeth Webb clay and she she was doing a study on connectivity and on the brain and information and how it affects the brain and so she said through her MRI study that that tell us personal contact elicits greater activity in the brain areas like linked to social problem solving attention and reward the remote connection when the identical information is transmitted via recording which would be a text message email voicemail something gets lost up to 25% of the impact gets lost when people are regulated information through text or digital just as we all require food water and sleep to survive we all need genuine human interaction in there's this place where if we understand that God wants to give us a deepening connection to him and to humanity around us that's part of how God wired us that we need face-to-face interaction and people need face-to-face interaction with God I love the description first John 3 which says no one has ever seen what God's face looks like but when we love one another they can see him so love and our response to God reveals the God of all the universe in real time as a matter of fact he didn't just give us a Bible that's just a text message or an email he gave us a Living Word that the Holy Spirit will interpret to us so we don't have a rulebook Bible we actually have the word as part of God it actually has this nature in it have you ever been reading the Bible and a scripture comes up and highlights and you're like I know how to use that today that I'm standing on that how many of you have had that happen hello your prophetic you're not that smart I know how to use those proverb of my life if you have any pride about that at all you need to quit because the reason why that proverb came up is because God's training your character because he's that good because he's using the Living Word to help form who you are well the spirit this is the logos the Spirit is the Rhema word of God he brings current information the thoughts and the processes of the Father into our heart and God purposely made it so we live and share the same headspace and the same spirit space because he wanted to live in us so that he can come into our redeemed form not annihilate us like a lot of the Church teaches it's like I'm gonna die to myself which we think means dying into the good of us it only means dying to the carnal nature of us the rest of us he wants to empower to be the full version of what he originally intended so he comes and lives in us somebody lives in us he changes all of our options he changes our relational capacity changes everything about us and he purposely comes as a still small voice ninety percent of Christians hear impressions from God he comes that way because if we had the Charlton Heston this was the voice of God turn left go by this go talk to this person we would come into a control or relationship with God where were only servants but he actually called us to be sons co-heirs Anne and John 17 even prayed that we would share oneness with him the way he's one with the father that means that you're hearing God and he's not trying to direct you as much as he's trying to empower you so even hearing God's voice for us he's empowering his original intention is designed for us to be the best version of ourselves and then help bring the world into the best version of it itself and when you understand this your desires change even what you ask God for changes you know we have people around the world I love my podcast it's called exploring the prophetic I'd encourage you guys to get it has every listener exploring the prophetic for you guys thanks you guys I love that you guys listen to it it's a really fun podcast where we take people of all genres and they talk about they're hearing from God just normal people and then what happens because they heard from God so one of my favorite stories from last season we're starting season two this week but one of my favorite season stories from last season was kale I mean Luke Coulter dr. Luke Coulter he's a theologian and he's just a young guy just a really young guy who was almost suicide or was suicide almost died drug addict who gets saved and he's 10 years into that journey you know ting and him and his wife Grace he's Filipino and he's white they're they're driving down the street in Texas the highway in Texas they looks over at a strip club and he has a vision and he sees women chained to the wall in the strip club and he's like I think that's trafficking I think I think that's is this real like he's thinking is it did I really have this because that's not normal for him like did I really have this kind of experience and he tells his wife and she said we have to do something because if the a chance assist true will save lives if it's not true there's no shame you know but we got to try so they asked a cop for theirs what to do he says to : anonymous tipline but just they don't have to be anonymous but to called anonymous tipline and so he calls it up and says hey this is what I saw I don't know what to do because I know it's a spiritual experience don't know if you even take this seriously there's like I just had to try this I said we've had our eye on that place for a while thank you they actually told him that which they don't normally tell and then they were driving by and there was a bust like just a couple days though there's a bust and they were arresting all these people and then the newspaper reported that 14 women were chained to the wall being trafficked under the age of 18 and you just think about I'm a Christian God's compassion lives in me God's wisdom lives in me and he knows everything and he doesn't wanna be restrained by my unbelief but he wants me to be surrendered that just maybe he's gonna show me something that resolves an issue and saves lives and it was such a beautiful picture and so I did this podcast and it made me so hungry because I feel like a lot of times when we think about God's voice it's always that church centric thing of like God loves you so much and you're called to be a home group leader and you're called to be on the worship team and it's just like this nice little directional word for how you can serve the church but it's really actually God Himself who created everything who wants to use you to transform it back into its original purpose which means you're really powerful and we do these training events with like kids and adults and we watch kids who start to understand I don't have a junior holy spirit I have full holy spirit of me and God can do anything through me and we're watching kids make radical decisions we have kids in Africa who've addressed their president now seven times in Kenya out of prophetic words that the president asked them for an audience and they're 9 and 10 and it embarrasses me because I don't have faith sometimes fun stuff like some of the kids were raising up I'm like why didn't I think of that why don't I believe that I can do that because I'm still growing in the faith that God huge God lives in a little me but it doesn't matter that I'm little me I look like huge God to heaven meaning angels are ready to serve huge God who lives in me meaning the power of heaven the power of a kingdom can be built through my frail vessel because God lives me okay let me just wrap this up I had one more little story was say on this Susan Pinkerton is another neurologist and she did a TED talks but she can read her research or even her books that she's written and she basically was looking for what creates longevity in certain parts of our world like Sardinia where they live the average man lives like into his hundreds like how does that happen you know like that's crazy so she did studies with thousands upon thousands of people and she found out that the top ten reasons a ways you can extend your life and the the bottom eight meaning not the top two but the bottom eight were things like we would expect clean air good diet quit smoking quit boozing that kind of stuff but the top two were shocking to her and they were talking to me number two is having close relationships that you're connected to currently not like that you had close relationships ten years ago you still send each other text messages but you're actually having face time with them goes back to the other research as well they've worked together and then the number one was social integration that causes you to live the longest is knowing your mail carrier by name knowing what's going on their life talking to your breasts being nice to your neighbors petting your neighbor's dog and looking there her in the eye and saying hi it's good to see you talking to your kids parents at school these kinds of things are just basic social integration that people who are socially integrated or present and their current connections they're not living off of the community had yesterday and they're not just driven by their future performance but they're actually present in life today and they're socially integrated in being present that they live the longest lives and when you look at this the most beautiful thing that God did for us is that the omnipresent God who lives outside of time comes into our time and manifest his presence and says I'm here for you I love you he comes into your day this is that the hidden Lord's made I'll rejoice and be glad in it he comes into your moment and he in his present with today's history today's what's going on with our country with our nation but you guys have a Christian Prime Minister for the first time in a long time praise God you know he comes into our day and he manifests and the whole world is wondering does God care about this issue does God care about this thing does God care about human trafficking does God care about economics does God care about our lack of education stuff that's going on where education is declining and most of the Western world does God care about this stuff and the answer is not only does it care about it but he cares about it more than we do and usually when we start caring about is God giving us a burden even at people who aren't saved God's giving burdens to all kinds of people because they'll use anybody you can anybody who has compassion he'll rest on the compassion just like that young man heard God in the hotel room without knowing God God would have given it to him freely even if he didn't choose to accept Jesus in his heart that night God loved to talk to him in that moment because he was being God just like me as a father if my daughter never wanted to come and live with me again she ran away but would give me one dinner a year I would take that dinner I'd be present with her in that dinner if that's all she came because they loved her enough even if she committed the worst crimes I'd visit her on death row because I love her that much and God's Way better father than I am or than you are and he loves people that much but he wants to give the world different options and the only way we'll get different options is if we hear his options and Jesus modeled this so beautifully where he said you know people would come to him and be like should we stone this woman who committed adultery or should we let her free because they're trying to trap them and he goes actually you who are without sin go ahead and stone her first that'll be the easiest option like the righteous man stoner and they're like oh we like our options but he constantly presented different options for people and he constantly was looking at things that the Christian world wouldn't touch me the Jewish world wouldn't touch like the woman at the well Samaritan woman who the Samaritans were the dogs of society and he goes and he reveals that his Messiah to her first before anybody else the person that's the least likely for him to reveal the precious secret of his heart he gives it to her cuz he knows she's a good investment did you know that's a first place for revival broke out it's a first place the kingdom came the whole city was transformed because he knew where to make the investment because the Holy Spirit lived in him and he knew what the father thought about that region and how they were ready they were ready before the Israelites were ready they were ready so I'm going to encourage you today big huge God lives in you and he wants to share his thoughts with you and perceptions and sometimes his thoughts sound like your thoughts but that you'll know their God because you're not smart enough for it or you wouldn't normally think it or you wouldn't normally do it that's the first indicator of how to learn how to listen to God it's like I should talk to that lady over there at lunchtime on I want to be with my family I don't want to talk to that lady I guarantee you that's God or I should give money to this mission strip and you start to think but I'd much rather have that new TV we're saving for an upgrade for I guarantee you it's God so the first way we learned how to hear from God is recognizing the voice that doesn't sound like us in our head or may sound like us but it doesn't sound like what we would want our agenda the second way we learned how to hear from God is we test the fruit of it and we starts to say wow when I talk to that person that was really encouraging so when we get scared when we feel that same boys telling us to talk to somebody else we recall the times that it worked and we go you know what it's worth it we count the cost and go wow of all the times even if it's just encouragement it's worth it and the third way we learned how to really listen to God especially amongst our own thoughts and impressions is that we learned how to use the scripture we learn how to actually use it make it useful for our lives so I want to just pray for you real briefly and I'm gonna do a couple models of prophetic words using words of knowledge hopefully I hope this works but I want you to stand up real fast I'm gonna pray for you I just want to pray that God will speak to even more than he ever has and that you'll recognize his voice more than you ever have okay so I'm gonna have you put your hand on your head just to be uncomfortable indifferent Holy Spirit we'd pray that you would open our mind in our spirit to hear from you even more Jesus we want to know what you're thinking we want to feel your love we're going to know your heart we want to know what's going on and we pray that you would relate to us your thoughts that you relate to us your heart in Jesus name and lord I pray that we especially especially today that you would you would speak to us something that we would be able to discern as you maybe about our life or our circumstances that you would encourage us Holy Spirit you were sent to be the encourage er the comforter the coach the counselor so would you come and be that way to us okay go ahead and sit down I'm gonna model a few prophetic words I prayed for you and when we were walking up I wrote a few things down just right there I was gonna try this for a service but I didn't have anything so you are my service that I go to practice this um is there a nurse named roost here does that make sense huh something got excited that's your wife but she's not here and her name's Ruth I saw this awesome there's a roost here yay God is speaking there's lots of roots but there's a roost with there's a nurse I felt like I kept when I said that I saw like a barrel or burro or something they saw a barrel but it didn't turn into burro was it Israel something about like a street name or that name borough Oh her maiden name Wow so is there I just feel like God wants to touch your wife's family and you're at her extended family and I felt like is there grace or Gracie and her extended family yeah is her sister and does she have kids yes has one she has a kid and I just feel like the Lord was saying I'm gonna touch Ruth your family yeah I'm gonna touch your extended family and I'm gonna I'm gonna answer prayers of their hearts of your heart and that there's something about a culmination season for her extended family to come into the full presence of God and the purpose of God and I just felt like Ruth is not that she's done more in God than them but there's something about her the way you've dedicated as a family to God and had been serving God that's that's really blessed God's heart and I feel like part of the overflow of that is it's gonna extend back to both of your families to have a release of just some breakthrough that hasn't happened so some circumstances that need to be moved forward or about to move forward and I just saw specifically her sister Grace and her situation that God was promising to move powerfully on her family's behalf and do some things that only he can do so I would encourage grace if she hears this if she's the type of person would hear this kind of word to think about the things that need to be moved that only could move forward and really pray with faith and ask God specific things in those areas and then for Ruth I would have her pray in response us worth for all the things that she's most concerned about in her family and ask God specifically to meet those areas because she's gonna see a very specific prayer list met that's why I keep hearing the Holy Spirit says her specific prayers are gonna be powerfully met in her family it's kind of greatly encouraged both of you so good amazing thank you good okay I'm gonna try one more we got a minute left is there a Justin who's a vicar here I don't know if we have any English could church this here but is there he's a vicar where's he at Oh what's his last name okay they're saying Justin figured it's not Justin who's a vicar his last entry I thought it was gonna be an Anglican vicar I was really excited with this is he here oh he's in first service see I didn't get it until after first service but you all know him is he married does he have a bunch of kids for kids I just felt like God was saying I'm coming on Justin's family I'll call the vicar family now that I know that God's coming on The Vicar family and he's gonna do something really special with them and does Justin does he work in media at all does he do anything with media currently I felt I felt like always gonna bless technology and something about a pursuit of Technology in him I don't know what that means it doesn't have to be super defined he can define that with the Lord but I felt like for his children specifically that God was gonna bring them identify hers on what to invest in the children talent wise skill wise for their future that God's gonna get him and his wife fully formed plan for how to nurture their calling and how to nurture the different music and the arts and the creativity and the leadership that's on that family and I thought they're gonna be a prototype that they're gonna be able to have language on excuse me how to nurture other families the same way that they're gonna have over the next five to eight years that they're gonna have a prototype process that they'll be able to replicate that they'll be able to bring other families and then how to pray for your kids had a prophetic insight for your kids how to see even what classes would be effective for the kids how to help the kids be empowered to choose not just an elective but actually actually to choose something I would affect their whole life and in fact there's something about this family that's gonna be a real prototype in a model entrusting them with something so I hope that blesses our heart when they're here and I did write down one more thing and where mine is okay - 28 seconds to go one more time is there a Zachary who has a July first or second birthday in and he has his mom is Amy and his estimate does that make sense to anybody who is it who is it but see I sat in the first service and I just fell in love with everybody and I'm getting words for them well that's your husband how old is Zachary 9 oh it's I thought this was a full-grown person with the mom name okay and you never know see when God tells you things sometimes you don't you don't get the full picture I just wrote down here that Zachary now it makes more sense because I saw him kind of I thought it was a long time ago but I mean might know my god process and modeling I don't know what my process is I just feel like Zachary the Lord is gonna really touch him and he has a problem-solving gift on his life he's a gift of leadership on his life and I feel like he has a gift of building on his life and I don't know if he was interested in robotics or Legos or something has he ever been interested in those kinds of things no not on this one how about video games date video games problem-solving stuff sorry I'm just struggling - he is saying game sad again please has he been involved with any kind of problem solving tools like Legos or video games yeah yeah he's very good at solving problems very gifted with yes and things like that I feel like gods about to tie even though he's young his leadership together with his problem-solving ability and he's gonna start to manifest a real strength and a real coming alongside people and I feel the Lord straining him because there's such a strong leadership capacity on his life and you're doing a great job raising him and I feel like the Lord is blessing you and Amy with new strategy new understanding and new connection to him and to anyone else who's in your family that God wants to give you revelation of your children and he wants to give you encouragement to say well done for how you're raising your children you guys are a model family they love your heart's so blessed you guys Wow thank you Jesus exercise well I did write one one more down just once is there somebody who your birthday is this week and you I kept seeing Calvin and Hobbes does that make sense Calvin and your birthday's this week maybe or it might be your last name of your first name does that make sense over here he's not here too why is God speaking to all people who aren't here I'm just kidding he was here you're celebrating it tomorrow you know Calvin is it his last name or first name is he is he a musician at all yeah this is him I just feel like that's good for you as a friendship group is there anybody else who's friends with Calvin raise your hand if you're friends with Calvin there's quite a few of you see like are you guys young adults is that what's going on so I feel like God's God's blessing Calvin and that he is about to do what he's born for that's why I could feel his birthday he's about to come to a new level in doing the music he was born for he's not he's not a Salesman he's not just a traditional businessman he's a musician and God's gonna give him the ability to go more and more and more after his dream and I felt like there's gonna be at some point media following him and his dream and social media following in his dream so I just want to encourage you Calvin happy birthday the Lord knew you needed this word to be how the courage to move more and more towards the bigger dream in life and that you won't always have to do a supplemental job to do that dream but at some point you'll do that as your occupation bless you amen well come on up you guys thank you what I modeled here was words of knowledge where God knows specific information about you that I don't know yeah and I'm gonna encourage you to believe that God knows real things about too and he really wants to talk to you about the real things in your heart and so I was mama this is what we did yesterday is we all practice words of knowledge together I have a resource table in the back if you want more information of theology and biblical based books that bring activation so you can do this too because it's not that I'm abnormally gifted I've just been practicing hearing the God and practice in the presence of God so thanks for letting me be here you guys are an amazing church
