Robert Madu - Hillsong Conference 2014 Guest

come on anybody excited to be at Hillsong conference this morning oh come on you can do better than that on the last day come on let's give Jesus praise in this although you may be seated don't get comfortable you might be back up again I don't know about you but I am just I'm Red Bull excited and Express so elated then I came this week to Hillsong conference this week has been phenomenal to say the least and I love Australia I love this church I love Pastor Brian and pastor Bobby and I know we've given honor all week but I just don't think you can ever give too much honor so would you help me thank God for the leadership of Pastor Brian and pastor Bobby I love them so much the last night Bishop reminded us that the elephant is over there and I want to talk to you about a different elephant that I'm sure you noticed as soon as I got up here you probably notice this glow that's emanating from our face this morning and it's not the Shekinah glory it's not the lighting this here in the all phones arena it's not even because I use exfoliating skin products but a reason I have a little bit of glow is because I've been married for 10 months 6 days 23 hours and 6 seconds to the most beautiful woman in the world tell them adieu my wife is with me and so uh we're kind of on an extended honeymoon here in Australia this week and you know the Bible declares that we overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of our testimony and I want to share my testimony because believe it or not I almost died on my honeymoon almost out on my honeymoon it was real the morning of my honeymoon I had incredible romantic pressure romantic pressure because it wasn't only my honeymoon it was also my wife's birthday so I had huge romantic pressure so I woke up that morning I did what every God does when he's in love with this woman I dropped my voice really low I said baby I said today is your day whatever you want to do today this is your day she said well no babe this this honeymoon is birthday enough I don't need anything I'm good I said I don't think you heard me I said today is your day whatever you want to do today we're gonna do all of a sudden my wife's face lit up like Christmas and she said do you know what I've always wanted to do I said no but we're gonna do it next words that came out of my wife's mouth let me know that she didn't care about my health my safety or the totality of who I was she said babe I've always wanted to swim in the ocean with dolphins people I barely swim in pools now we talk about swimming in the ocean with dolphins now I know something else saying Robert have more faith don't you know greater is He that is in you than he who is in the water but shut up I saw jaws one two and three and then let me know I need to stay on the shore but uh love love will make you do crazy things so I said okay let's swim with the dolphins and so we go out there and I think we got a picture cuz something I don't believe that this brother did that that's me and my wife swimming with the dolphins so out there having a good time and I'm scared to dance and finally we get in the water with the dolphins and they start to teach us how to communicate with the dolphins how to communicate with the dolphins and here's what messed me up all the communication is like life or death communication okay so like this right here is for the dolphin to hug you but if your arms like this the dolphin would headbutt you this right here is for the dolphin to kiss you but if your hands are a little bit open the dolphin bites the side of your face house and I got scared I panted you'll see one of them this dolphin I got proved legal proof he almost bit the side of my face up races dolphin almost killed me it gets worse it gets worse then the instructor says oh I need you to swim out into the deep swim out into the deep he calls another dolphin always I need you to swim out into the deep and here's all you have to do so all you have to do is be still and keep your hands raised just be still and keep your hands raised and the dolphin is gonna come behind you the two dolphins and they're gonna push you up not that when we'll get to that in a minute they're gonna push you and they're gonna push you up and you're gonna be floating in the air all you have to do is just be still and so he looks at me and says you first so I go out there I cannot explain to you how scared I was my heart is beating out of my chest I'm crying I'm praying in the spirit I'm singing I'm saying really new and macho let me die up in this water I mean I'm scared all of a sudden I look at the instructor and I can see him talking to the dogs don't know what he's saying but I know he's saying something looks like he's saying you know I've been telling y'all mo seed you right he sends the Dolphins told me the Dolphins started coming full speed towards me fins out of the water full speed towards me fins out of the water to tell you something I don't care how tough you are any time a fish it's coming full speed towards you fins out of the water I promise you you will lose your mind you will have a panic attack fact a man may have not peed in the water I was so scared and I'm daring I'm nervous and all of a sudden the Dolphins but they come behind me and I can feel them pushing my feet and they're trying to push me up and it seems like they're struggling and in my mind I'm thinking oh they changed their mind they want chocolate they're gonna eat me I'm just so scared but in the midst of my fear in the midst of my panic all of a sudden I remembered the word of the instructor he said all you have to do is be still and keep your hands raised all you have to do is just be still and keep your hands raised and all of a sudden in the middle of my panic and the middle of me getting scared son I realized that the thing that I thought was coming to kill me the thing I thought was come and destroy me was actually coming to push me into a new level and a new dimension in life now you can put that last picture up does that look like somebody that's scared no that looks like somebody that understands if you'll just be still and know who your God is it no matter what the enemy sends your way that thing might scare you but it's gonna push you into a new realm into a new dimension of what God has for you I feel like God just sent this crazy screaming shout and sweat and chocolate brother to tell you in this session at Hillsong conference you don't have to be afraid the thing you're afraid of is actually gonna be a catalyst to propel you to the new level and the new dimension that God is gonna take you to I feel like God wanted me to tell you feel the fear but do it anyway god bless you Hillsong conference you
