if you're having a rough one remember me in Savannah Georgia years ago as a teenager dimming distant memory Dorset Canada is on the line as well you're excited to run Horton I actually am quite excited God's been speaking to me about some new stuff so much so I've got the post-it notes from beside my bed that I keep there the post-it notes from beside my desk the post-it notes from the kitchen like it's mobile it's mobile hearing the voice of God morning walking and writing in every room and collating them so I may you hear God in every room of your house but I have to say some of the places I hear God the most in are in the bathroom so is that too much information in the shower is a great place to hear from God maybe it's because there's nobody else in there to distract me that's that's why oh do you guys want to say hi and tell them how you're doing hi everybody I can see some familiar names Taylor and Therese lovely to see you guys people that we know the faces of and for those of you from Eastern Europe Romania Budapest that's great and Texas I lived in Houston for a little while I always loved to see folks from Texas and yes it's it's been a quiet morning in our house this morning which is always good the teenagers have been lying in so we're all ready to go for Power Hour with you what about you Sam ya know someone's saying pollsters are trickier than the shower water proof board we have Essex Canada as well you're so welcome it's Friday and almost the weekend and tomorrow sometimes it's asleep but it's good to be with you and today and I just know that what we've got excited yeah well got to share with you super excited I know that for me just as Emma was starting to share in synergy and we're starting to share before we came on live and I was getting super excited and blessed by what they're carrying as well so I know you're gonna be good okay I just feel Sam you've got some good stuff and we're still working under the theme I think we're day three three of this theme spending time well and I think when we started that theme because we do love a theme here we love to know what we're prophesying into we didn't realise that God had so much to say on spending time well so on your marks get set Sam over to you explode with glory and God is telling you we are to spend time well mostly so I'm just gonna prophesy really and for the next few minutes and then we're gonna release some a and some really exciting stuff to you guys watching and let me just bring a bit of an arc of a wart that I had this better of God started to speak to me about at the start of the year about the directions that the nations are going with regards to arts and entertainment and creativity I heard the spirit of the large say just as we crossed into 2020 that we are entering into a time where beautiful and pure somes and energies will start to come of our entertainment establishments as God starts to release a new breed of dramas to fill our TV screens and God starts to anoint a new generation of creative stewards of His purposes and I felt like even and not God was saying look there is a new generation of script writers novel writers film producers there's a new generation of those who are a poems and prose I felt like there was just a new breed of like a junior are talking stanley's those type of people who started to write something super nerve that grabbed the attention of an entire generation and I actually felt like the sweater of the large said look we're about to enter enter towards the end of 2020 a saying of this will be a comic book with kingdom principles that goes viral but will be accessible to the masses although although it's a kingdom comic book it will be viral and it'll be accessible to the masses but let me just anchor that to you personal because I know that for me sometimes when you hear someone prophesy about creatives you think that is for the artists at the front of the church or the person that runs maybe their own arts and crafts business and we don't really see that actually we are all made in the image of a creative God and we all have creative DNA whatever that looks like and we are entering into that time right now and that's lockdown P need where God is saying look I'm releasing another level of creativity and to my people and through my people and a many out of different ways and I heard this better of God speak of Exodus chapter 35 and varices 30 onwards you can read it there but let me just read that first kind of couple of verses I says then mosey said to the sons of Israel see the Lord is called by name Bezalel the son of RI the son of horror of the tribe of Judah and has felt him with the sweater of and wisdom in an understanding and knowledge and in all craftsmanship to make designs for working etc except etc and that verse really paints the picture that actually the Spirit of God comes with an ability to partner with his creative abilities and it's interesting here that the name Bezalel means in the shadow and end the protection and in the hiding place of God that God is saying look in hiding and under my shadow and in this place of protection I am strengthening my creative army and I heard the Spirit of God say look it's not just about filling your time they're spending time well it's not just about filling your time it's about investing and your future and investing and your destiny by partnering with what God wants to train you and today and I believe that the Spirit of God really wants to speak to those of you who feel this that there is just a press right now on on an eruption from the inside of you of a fresh creative ability that there is a momentum behind creativity right now and God is starting it as we are in lockdown God is starting it as we are in hiding God is starting this creative flow as we are where we are right now and the Spirit of God says what happens even creatively over these months of lockdown we'll set that corn the Lord says for a decade where ennovation comes back to my house and ennovation comes back to the church and I heard the spreader of the largest a look that's decade is where innovation is coming back to the house of God but I am bursting at right now and this time of lockdown so let me just a talk about a few 80s and just prophesy one or two eighties unless someone has some today I love how creative goddess but I know how creative he is with color and I mean I can't draw a stickman with a ruler I mean honestly I don't have that ability for any art creativity but I tell you what there are other creativity's there is creative problem-solving there is create baking I love to bake but God wears bright colored clothes and that's not just from visits to heaven that's written in Revelation God chooses in Revelation to dress himself in an entire rainbow I mean God chooses to have colors all around himself and so some of you are going to get creative even with your clothes and even with your wardrobe and I know a number of the ladies are just going amen amen that God is gonna blow us gonna bless us to even be creative in our shopping for what we wear and if God where's all the colors of the rainbow why are we always wearing dull colors or going to the blacks and the whites when God says look at me I wear the rainbow and so this sorry sound if you've got the wrong guy for it but there is that sense of this creativity being for shoes and clothes and kitchen and books and sculpture and business I mean who needs a creative business you know a manager yes come on men - we need viewings and bright colors you know and if you who need to create a business solution I mean there's a whole sense that we need and sir Gina you're a highly successful businesswoman as well as a full-time minister but we need em that Russia creatively in every facet creative parenting create date nights with our husbands I mean come on nobody wants to be sale in their relationships that that creativity should surge across every you know part of our body and of my my son like my my littlest Samuel I mean when you guys know him he's dramatic I don't know where he gets it from he's a bit dramatic so but he are going to his room and he's 11 years old he's completely rearranged the furniture in his bedroom why because he just wants to have creativity all right of em and you see that even and our children who are looking for creative expressions so sorry Sam is me is this whole sense of of coming alive really don't don't watch us and go you know oh well I can't paint well neither can i but that's not the point the point is my whole being is coming alive with the surge of the creative genius of God and his genius gets to be my genius he shares his genius and I get to have explosive ideas up I'm gonna love better or cook better or solution better I'm gonna be a solution Airy we need to say I'm gonna be a solution Airy I'm gonna be a solution Airy I'm gonna be a missionary of solutions I'm gonna be so creative I'm gonna be a solution Airy did we just make a word ah is that a word I don't know keep going step yeah I think that's really interesting because my my children have done the same thing in the last week reordering their bedrooms and moving furniture around and actually God was speaking to me about that as Sam was prophesying then actually interior design interior decoration but actually for many of us obviously right now we're all in lockdown I feel like the Lord is saying it's about using your space creatively and so even changing rooms around to have another couple in our church who actually moved a room around to give themselves creative space because they are a worship leader and they write songs and and they write and creatively and they made a whole room change around so they could have that space in this lock down I think we have to take that opportunity to do that yeah actually as they're both saying I'm gonna precise some other eighties as well don't discount yourself because you may not have the three or four creative abilities that we see them you know the majority operate with actually God how do I partner with your creativity today and my life and it could be as simple as I'm gonna explore cooking a different sort of meal just to explore that with you but I felt there's a couple of specific areas where God was just saying look I want to release creativity here there is a glory at this point in time for melody and for songwriting right now and it's not just about pressing in for words says the Lord bought four stones and I felt like the spell of the Lord was speaking to songwriters do not be frustrated when you can nail a melody before you can kneel the words to the song because I am perfecting first a glory sound and then I will release the words to be around that soon and I felt just out frustrating I can get the melody my song sounds beautiful but I can't get the words oh and God says bass okay set there as I start to release a new glory sound into the air through my songwriters just as Emma was saying God is giving creativity back to his business people at this time and there are creative solutions to unlock provision in these unusual times as well and if you are working in business in some sort of way you just have to pray God I welcome your creativity I welcome that creative main set to come to me that actually where these three or four paths that I've learned to walk no no longer exists God show me creatively how to go forward there is a creativity and painting thing as Emma was saying and cooking and exploding food and nutrition I felt there just creativity even to learn stocks trades and investments I know it's a bizarre thing to do that but this is better I've God is saying look I'm releasing creativity to mark a new generation a new breed of investors who understand stocks and trades and understand how to work with my spirits nice better when it comes to investing as well and then I heard that the Spirit of God say look even at this time when it feels like nations are shut down two nations I am even releasing an unusual creativity that will make it easier to learn new languages and I was like so high right now the Lord is the same that I am NOT disconnecting nation from nation and I am NOT a separating people from people and I am going to make it easier for my people to talk to each other and relate with each other across face of the air there will be an ease behind learning new languages and some of you have been like I've said and I've said this I'm just not a language person I can't pick up actually and you've wanted to learn a new language God says look right now there is a creative glory so learning new languages and where something should take two years it will take a much much much much shorter period of time because of what I'm releasing in the earth and that is he's saying that God is still moving and connecting nation with nation and heart with heart as he does that across the face of the earth I mean I just think sound right in there some of us are gonna have to repent for saying I'm not linguistically gifted when God's starting to say to us look it doesn't matter what your base level of human skill is you have a miracle a miracle don't block the miracle by telling me there's something you can't do you know because actually we can push away miracles by telling God actually I'm no good at that yeah maybe I might start painting after just saying no good data of we've said no so many stories like we have a friend Sonya who couldn't paint before and she just started to pray because she felt like I have this creative ability to pain but I have no artistic scale God would you give me your creativity which work a medical and give me a Thailand and no she's like at the top of the top and her ability to pain and to purchase high-quality are and so don't look at your ability as an assessment of what God's called you to do God as their a creative ability that I have not stray tap into yeah and I welcome your marat your medical your miraculous power to come and develop that and me and I think you know colors I love colors in fact I know you guys love colors too and I think it's because we get caught up in the spirit realm and so we are used to traveling up and down to heaven you know like Ezekiel and like Daniel and like John the Revelator that's quite normal for the prophetic community should be normal for you guys too but to be caught up in the spirit and of course when you caught up in the spirit and God shows you realms of his and you start to be aware of the diversity of color that is up there and some colors that are very difficult even for us to name back dine here on the earth and so heaviness is not an you know a monochrome palette its glorious color and so I am love the thought of well when God when you created yellow what why when you created green why what were you doing what will you try what were you trying to say you know and what why blue God and what does it do and what does it do when it's worn on the right day what does it do it it's painted on the wall in the right way you know and and this whole sense of colors in Scripture meaning things so if you start to see turquoise in your dreams or you feel like you want to wear turquoise you've got to know where turquoise is in Scripture I tell you what they'll be top tips top top prizes there aren't actually any prizes but top lots of admiration if you can tell me where turquoise is in Scripture because we need to know these kinds of things do you get a prize I think you've quoted and we've got this verse to each other a lot so I know you guys know this verse but where's turquoise and scripture what price would you like it's usually it's usually if you give a price to the children it she's I'll give you a kiss or a hug isn't it and they like where's my chocolate that's right children all the time the prize is I'm going to kiss you all over your face that they're like no anyway but where's turquoise in the Bible is in eyes in them Isaiah 54 Oh afflicted City lashed by storms and not comforted I will rebuild you with turquoise and so you know if you feel compelled to paint in turquoise paint your room biter bed linen put turquoise waistcoat on to somebody saying that that is all a bite owning a restoration and a rebuilding and so I think we've got to look in a different way yellow in Scripture always is to do with glory blue is to do with the the holy spirit and revelation green are to do with new beginnings red to do with passion and sometimes when you know that look I'm gonna give a marriage top tip right here and hold on to the seeker pass because sometimes if if you need an injection of passion in your marriage and God creates fire and passion and flame to be red why are we not buying red bed linen to re-inject passion into our marriage because there's anointings on different kind of colors man that's a top tip right there so just put your fingers in your ears or if you're single and don't listen to that top tip so and there is the sense of this explosion of joy in using color and surgeon and I I mean how many times a day have you and I turned up wearing identical colors tears it's not just once or twice because almost that sense that you go to the cupboard and you just have this this knowing that that that that color and is anointed for today that God is speaking through the color that I wear as much as through the words that I say that's right yeah even how we paint our houses I know we all seem to have these urges sometimes just to paint a room and it's usually around the same time the room I was sitting in right now the office that I'm in has olive green on it why because it's the for me it was the psalm 52 I am an olive tree flourishing in the house of God you know that's what I wanted to say and and and heard God say prophetically this was the color it was to be and so colors say something in our homes as much as what we wear as well don't they Emma and I know that you you've done similarly guys in in your bedrooms and homes and you know a purple cushion speaks of royalty purple wearing purple wearing blue revelation this I love this color that I'm wearing today and yeah totally it's so it's okey when you get in tune with it and it actually releases in the spirit because I see things in the spirit it releases something of heaven on you through you through your home through your and your day core and it's very powerful and and actually colors have sound as well colors have sound that's that's another another whole other areas other things but I think it's just that sense of the playful glory of a creative heavenly father who dresses himself you know if you and I walked out wearing all the colors of the rainbow we might you know look at each other go that there's a little bit too much and yet the joy of God is that he wears all of the colors of the rainbow all at once I mean it is it is what's around him is what shadows him he you look at him and you see all those colors and almost we we read scripture sometimes our real insight as to what is what is going on within them and the colors and the symbol is symbolic meaning behind the colors and so I want to release joy to you in colors in thinking about redecorating your house and I know this is a little bit weird but well maybe it's normal who knows help me I if you do I love the paint color chart books you know like and sorry if you're not British but the Duloc deluxe or the B&Q and the Guru and ball and a ferrule and ball either one or the hired only the hired the Faro and ball but the paint color charts where you know if you're going to paint your house and you just flick through all the colors because I find colors incredibly healing god what color do I need to see like what color are you dressed and higher you communicate you mean sometimes when you see God turn up or Jesus walk into a room and and jesus walks in and he is wearing purple I know that purple is the color of royalty and that's a sense that something remarkable of belonging is going to happen because I wear purple too and I belong in this royal family with him and so purple is is in Scripture that sense of royalty and belonging you know so we we have to some else does the paint charts to Alleluia Elizabeth were kindred spirits you know looking at paint and that sense of joy we've got some I'm getting excited release creativity and can I ask a special request today please can we have excellence in creativity I do not want the world to be excellent in creativity and us to be the have a go heroes with no real skill I don't want the art fight there to be better than the art in the church I don't want the stories right there to be better than the stories in the church there has to be an excellent so that when we see prophetic are a Christian art it doesn't look like the lion in the artwork has just come out of the hairdresser's and had a bad blow-dry experience you know we want excellence in our creativity so come on release it to it I think you can do what you want in the privacy of your own home be creative whatever it looks like part of what they're actually I forgot was that that's new breed of creatives that God is raising up training period of time he will elevate them to the tops of trades and to the tops of industries that's the sort of level of creativity that God is releasing and sharpening so father right now we just thank you that you are the God that we meet in Genesis one that is always creating and moving and dancing and making new life and releasing colors and inventing new things and father I thank you that we get to partner with you as those who are made and your image to create alongside of you and right now in Jesus name I listen to everybody watching a fresh surge of creativity I live a fresh surge of creativity to wash every fiber of your being that your thoughts will start to be creative your ideas will start to be creative that your outputs will start to be creative even just as we've taught simply that your cooking even how your house looks even moving rims around you'll start to explore with God new creative avenues but right now and then Emma Jesus I also just bless those of you who have particular creative calls to be at the tops of industries now I'm looking even a being a manual here on here who have their own lifestyle click here brand that's part for you that you remain to be at the tops of industries and I prophesied over here before but those of you hey Julia poll you're on here as well as an artist of Fame artist you're meant to be at the top of your industry in Jesus name I bless those of you who have a particular creative mandate and to be award-winning artist to be award-winning creatives to be at the top of your trade at the top of your industry the right now and that's hiding the shadow place God is sharpening you so that when you come out the other end you're ready to be accelerated into those possessions of influence in Jesus name so just partner with me and that's all of you and just say Jesus I receive a fresh wave of your creativity and what you prayed that I then want you to ask the Spirit of God the question how am I meant to partner with your creativity in my life today what does that look like partnering with your creativity and my life today and even as we start to move on and prophesy some other areas if you hear the Spirit of God say something with you please type and let us know I'm gonna be creative here or here or here just so we can see that breadth of how God is moving across the nations and we release a joy in in dressing yourself we and that day of sadness when you look in your wardrobe and sadness when you look at yourself in the mirror after dressing yourself I really hear the Spirit of the Lord say I'm redressing the bride I'm redressing the bride now that sounds like permission to shop but I think it's much more a sense of God giving back to you expression of who he is in the colors that you where we list interior design anointings to rise up in the midst of you we looks joy being in your house and rearranging and decorating your house rather than being overwhelmed by your house I release the authors I mean I've written like three books it's very I mean I say in in record time but I lose an authoring anointing to you right now in the mighty name of Jesus that right now that there would be this surge of authorship come upon you come on some of you need that right now a surge of authors that ship to communicate in written words in Jesus name and you know just let's get excited about heaven for a moment because I do love thinking about heaven when Jesus says in the Gospels I'm going there to prepare a place for you if it were not so I would not have told you when he you know in my father's house there are many rooms when Jesus quotes that to his scripture tells us that scripture you know my full expectation is that in your house in heaven and my house in heaven will be decorated by the master interior designer and your room in heaven will have all the colors that are right for you I mean God will have wallpapered your room in heaven he's already doing this with your absolute favorite best I mean can you imagine the decorating team in heaven the wallpapering angels who were I mean they're gonna be some who are prepping the rooms that God says he's gone to prepare love it okay let's change let's change tack a little bit and spending time well we are keeping to a theme spending time well I want to talk a little bit about kneeling as I just bring up my my notes on kneeling and we talked about this beginning of the year that I believe that God is calling us to be a kneeling people and they're spending our time where will mean that we more easily fall to our knees now let me just some kind of stay with me because this is powerful I asked Jesus I asked him this quite often you know when I'm in a different cycle of prepping different sermons to travel with you know if you were here on the earth today Jesus what part of the gospel would you be highlighting what if I was rushing to the SECC the big event center in Glasgow and I was hearing you preach what would you be saying on which verses Jesus from Scripture would you be communicating to us now no faster were those words out of my mouth where I heard him say Matthew 5 verse 3 blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven now in modern language because that's difficult bless the Prince pure blessed are those who know their need of God blessed are those who depend on God blessed are those who know they are helpless happy are those who depend on him but that word in the Strong's Concordance that the / in spirit actually means to cry or to bend over low and I want you to be honest with me how much is kneeling part of your lifestyle I mean how much is banding physically before God art do you kneel once a month tell me do you kneel just in your head do you kneel once a week do you kneel once a day are you in the Daniel model of kneeling three times a day just tighten that mean M you see in our busy independent minded lives we often have to take hold of our physical body and kneel to shock our minds into a different way of thinking and when you kneel you disrupt your life pattern when you kneel it starts to provoke what you were made to do it's suddenly in a kneeling position shifts you from being dependent on yourself to taking a physical posture of dependency in Jesus and it aids your humility you see it is very difficult to be arrogant when you're kneeling it is very difficult to be stubborn when you're on your knees it is very difficult to be angry on your knees and that small physical movement will change your entire day and I think we actually need to say that we will be the Daniell people but we will fall out of bed and fall onto our knees and that we will in the middle of the day fall to our knees but in the evening we will fall to our knees and can I actually say I saw you saying they got bad knees but actually sometimes and this is a little bit maybe this is too much information but sometimes kneeling naked is the most powerful way to find Jesus because you are in that low an exposed place where actually your whole being emotions our mind get reset by a physical posture of vulnerability so Philippians 2 at the name of Jesus every knee shall buy and bending at the name of Jesus is so much the backdrop of Scripture but I think we've lost that hushed reverence we see that their Queens family the Queen of England Queen Elizabeth her family kind of by when they meet her but I think we have lost the art of the honor of our King and that we have a sense dare I say it of blasphemy with our bodies now we may not blaspheme by you know taking the name of the Lord in vain but I think we can blaspheme by not giving honor even with our physical beings and so I want asked to be known as the kneeling religion and I think we have squandered that and we have given that accolade to Islam who by five times a day and so society still respects Muhammad and the people of the mask but I do not think they respect Jesus and the Christians because we do not know how to model honor for Jesus ourselves so the world has nothing to mirror us three times a day and you know many years ago talking with a friend who is a worship leader and actually in Glasgow elem and we're talking about do you want you know the Spirit of God just to come in and it's so powerful and God just blows into the room and we just fall over and yay God your power just turned up and she said to me no Emma I don't want God to come like that and I'm like why not why don't you all go to talking she said I want to be kneeling already before he comes in the room he doesn't need to knock me over and I I've always remembered that this will come some conversation statistic in your head but there is a prayer to come I to us that says I kneel I kneel so that I create space for you God I kneel so that I am not filling the room so they're in my surrender and in my position you don't have to knock me over but actually you more easily come to where I am because I've already surrendered in the fusion three verse 14 RI when it when pulses up for this reason I kneel before the Father for this cause I buy in different translations but he is the prayer that he's about to pray is so great he's about to pray about the inclusion of the Gentiles in the family of the love of God but sometimes the prayer that you need to pray the prayer that I need to pray is so great it cannot come out of our minds any other way that on our needs and sometimes when you're praying those desperate prayers you know for families or you're your own sin you cannot say that in a trite way standing up or sitting with your legs crossed drinking a cup of coffee it must come in a right posture the owners who he is well so let's talk honestly about life you know the Europeans we have a different view on alcohol than the Americans so this is a European thought maybe in the evenings we say doesn't the glass of wine signed nice maybe two signs better intimacy with our spice would be good but maybe porn is easier a conversation would help but binge watching TV is gonna let me chew night catching up on a book would be restful but you know maybe social media has some notifications that look urgent you know I should spend time with my spice but talking is hard or there's an article that's trending I need to look at that and of course we we live particularly in the evenings after working great escape' ISM and I believe that our kneeling time is not just falling out of bed onto my knees but in the evening when you're looking for life's distractions that in that moment you fall to your knees and all those things that would have been wrong for you to do suddenly your being is realigned and the mind reset as you choose to kneel let me just before I hand over to Sarah Jane I typed this prophetic word up earlier in the year and the Lord says this before the coronavirus he said this to me am a prophesy to the evangelical church this year I am beginning a seismic shift says the Lord at the heart of your evangelical foundations I am bringing a major course correction to you evangelicals you have been those who like to think you know all the answers you have paraded your beliefs on your websites thinking he who believes the best wins you think you have cornered the market in theology but you have not and you have much to learn evangelicals your greatest blind spot is to have bred or raised a mass of people who argue and schism and in fight trying to believe only they are the right thinkers often you are not defending truth as you hoped you are defending your opinions and your prejudices and I heard the Lord say arrogant evangelicals and I heard the Lord say scared evangelicals scared of the future the Lord says on your knees you will be a church who shift from those who think they know the answers to those who ask the questions on your knees says God I will deal with the errors of evangelicalism on your knees I will deal with your arrogance and your rudeness with which you have dealt with each other on your knees I will let you know what it is to steward and you righteous fear of who I am kneeling is my gift to you kneeling is my gift to you on the floor you will see me and you will partner with a new level of Revelation and a new breed of theologian will arise who has find me not just with their mind but find me on their faces on you will on your knees you will move from being thinkers only to those who take action on your knees I will not let you get stuck in defending your history but I will give to you on your faces in your era and you eat pork and you revelation of who I am on your knees you will find me afresh kneeling is the position of the season kneeling is the birthing position the church will birth a new on its knees and Gus has become a kneeling people spend your time well in lock dine by kneeling as often as you can says the Lord so I'm searching jumping and pray in the back of that we say find us on our knees find us on our faces before you God Lord we choose a posture of humility we choose a posture god of bowing low of letting your yolk fall tosses your burdens Lord we let you dress us in that place of kneeling behind of your spirit we let you god strippers of what is has become familiar Lord that you want to rip off Lord we let you come close to us in that position of kneeling and we say yes and I just hear the Lord say on your faces and on your knees and it's not just the kneeling with our heads I it's with the faces on the floor and our bodies on our knees so Lord we choose to bow we say find us on our knees and find us on our faces before you Jesus this isn't something that you're making us do but your ask to do and it's not that you're forcing us to our knees you're saying I want to find you on your knees and there's a choice and this it's not like I'm just gonna force on you it's gonna be done on that sorted he's saying look on your knees but you have to get on your knees you have to get down low you have to work with this and we want to be just like not worship leader the Emma had a conversation with we want to be found on our knees not forced onto our knees because you're in the room we want to be those who have that continual posture and so Jesus we yield afresh to you and we submit and actually kneeling is that that posture of sting I submit fully to you God I submit to your ruling your reigning you're worth your glory your holiness I show myself and that's weak posture knowing that you are strong and then I'm only strong and you so Jesus we choose that posture of kneeling that you will find us on our knees I mean two extremes isn't it from the joy of creativity to how we spend our time well to the surrendered Ness that must be seen in a physical shift who well spending our time well our final thought top tip for today searching over to you because you've a great blessing to release to us and I just I just feel really the holiness of God and not just holiness and the fear of the Lord yes I just want to pray God with you markers with that you know we we're not just wanting to fill time here with this our and our hearts are that God really changes those marks as shapes us and there's just this real sense of the the holiness and the fear of the Lord and as you release that and as we begin to pray for that and so I just want to encourage each one of you just to pray God marked me with that fear of the Lord and holiness right there in that moment but we don't just kind of skip onto the next thing you know filling our heads filling our Diaries with here's another thing that the prophets have said we need to do to spend our time well but let God mark you with that and I think what I love about all of that you know you kind of get into that flow of the Holy Spirit and you kind of watch me flick in the night of that you know with the Spirit of God is really on something but from me as I review what God is saying it's so easy I mean it's just so easy and and we make faith you know complicated in in other notes this morning you know that God is going from kampf taking us from complex to teaches simplicity is one of the things I wrote this morning from complexity to simplicity and just kneeling is so simple and yet you know I've said to my father for those of you who don't know my dad some of you do probably the most godly man any of us have ever met and the most wise and the most remarkable communicator I've ever known and and a senior CLO Jian and you know and yet he he he's been in ministry all his days he's been wounded by churches mistreated by churches you know you can't not be when you're 50 50 years down the line in full-time Christian ministry when you're trying to warm up I Parish Baptist churches most of your life to the gift of the Spirit you know and yet he's maintained this piece and this absolute love for the church in the law a love for God and you know I sitting - how do you do it how do you keep loving Jesus how do you keep loving the church you know in the midst of all her nonsenses and he talks about I continually pray prayers of surrender I continually pray prayers of kneeling and an unyielding and and somebody talking about rebellion you know and they're actually just kneeling breaks if you have this rebellion and you kneeling breaks if if you have got ideas above your station or even if you're in pain kneeling postures your heart too and you know even receive a greater sense of healing because it's a sign of dependency and and so it is so simple Clarissa simply kneels she's writing it is so simple the gift of God let's not make faith complicated mmm and then submit to God yes not easy for everybody but kneeling will help so as we come to the end of this series of spending our time well and this lockdown well who knows maybe God will give us another series in a week or so but right now this one and I want to talk about godly administration in this time and I as I began to study some scriptures that God was showing me about the connection between time and administration and so I just want to share those with you as a kind of backdrop for what the Lord is saying there's a there's an invitation here for us to be well ordered in this time not just our days but our lives for today and for the future as God drops in this gift of godly administration as we are all at home in this focused season and so the first scripture is first Ephesians 10 and it's actually the American Standard Version that I'm speaking to you in and it's verse 9 it says he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his kind intention which he purposed in him with a view to an administration suitable to the fullness of times that is the summing up of all things in Christ things in the heavens and things on the earth in him and so we know and Emmas talked about this I think earlier on this week that City of God the new city the New Jerusalem has an administration and also that there's an administration right now today that we hold off with this administration almost shadowing us from the future to say come on Church get into this godly administration that is at hand because what the kingdom of God is at hand it's right here but we need to pull in this Garvey administration we began this spending time with the Lord with the mind of Christ so we have the thinking in the mind of Christ but we also have its application its application is in administration and so for me we have to understand God puts importance on time and times you know that in Scripture time and times God speaks about it all all through scripture and we can pull a number but the the main principle is in Daniel 7 where where God and is seated on his throne and Daniel speaks about the enemy who comes to try and change the set times and and laws of God and so even the enemy knows the importance of the times of God we you know we we don't we that the simple scriptures are on the third day or in three days or in 40 days the God measures his revelation in time with the prophets he measures times of breakthrough even in our own lives when we get prophetic words and he speaks a lot about mysterious things of in a time and time and a half a time this thing will happen and so it's important for us to understand this how how do we go then from there we look at Ecclesiastes 3 which is so well known isn't it but I actually was reading again this morning and I just love I just love this scripture includes the fc3 and it is simple there was a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven and we all know the the famous line means our time to be born and a time to die and how true is that right now where we weep with those who are mourning and we celebrate the the joy of new birth in our family today I had four pieces of of news an old colleague of mine in what could died our friend's father having his sorry a friend having his father's funeral online this morning before I came on here and then to news of pregnancies in our family so you've got the joy of the birthing coming and you've got the morning of the dead in the same day but there's a time to be born and a time to die we have to understand what time we are in in our day and what time are we in in this season of God and this verse 11 he has made everything beautiful in its time he has also set eternity in the hearts of men yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end and I know there's nothing better for men than to be happy with the good while they live and that ever I can find satisfaction in all his toil that is a gift from God so there's a gift of time and there is a gift of what we do with our time this godly administration so three areas that I wanted to just point out in this for you today right now is we're in lockdown this resetting I've got the administration than a pray for it for us in a minute it's independent its individual rather that's not a good word independent it's individual for each one of us but it's also corporate for the church this godly administration so how do we apply it in our day there is a business reset for those of you with businesses whether you work from home right now or whether you are working from home right now for a company or whether you have your own business and whether it's a one-man band and you're self-employed or you employ people God is bringing a godly administration into your businesses he's also bringing it into our homes and we were talking earlier about creativity in painting but actually this thing about clearing out causes reordering rooms they're getting rid of your papers that you've been hoarding and not dealing with you know your and your insurance papers or your air bills or your letters from the bank or whatever it might be or your kitchen cupboards or your wardrobes and I'm not talking about whatever name is kondal there did Japanese lady this is a you know there is a there is a cultural expression of this right now but actually God is saying there is an administration for your wardrobe that is coming from heaven there's an administration for your filing that is coming from heaven and for your businesses and even in relationships where there's a disorder in relationships and there's been a breakdown in relationships there are specifically times when God is going to say to you this is the day for making that phone call this is the day for bringing order and writing that letter or card to that person where breakdown of relationships is much as we were talking about what color isn't it today God is actually what is the time for today in my day it's time for kneeling in the morning in the lunch time in the evening but it's also time to bring that godly administration into relationships and into the functionality of our homes and our lives and our businesses I know if you want to say anything on that I mean clearly I'm the poster queen I love different color post-it notes of us I'm a list writer and I usually I used to work with big books like pages of to do and and this end sometimes when you look at your to Do's and you go right I don't even know where to start and you almost start the day feeling like you're a failure before you've even begun because there's sometimes there's just so much stuff and yet you can't quite get handle on any of it and I felt that Laura say to me and I start to buy small post-its not big big books small poster those [Music] guys are gift anyway so oh you got a picture of tiny in your wall anyway yes we all of the island of tyree is not island off in this scottish Hebrides about four hours on the boat off the coast of scotland anyway we're focusing and Laura said to me just write down in the morning on a small post-it note what I tell you is anointed for today and I'm like God but I have a list much bigger than that and but I started this a long time ago with God and I only write dine in the mornings or the night before what there is a Grace and an anointing on for the next day because I do not want to do things right off time with God I don't want to have conversations that the other person isn't ready for but I think I'm ready for I don't want to write an email that actually I've not resolved something in my own heart so I come across as a bit gruesome or grumpy you know or not well resolved and so I write this time God what is there an anointing well what do I have the capability in my own emotional place to do you know is it but today I actually can't do any heavy lifting spiritually and this is a tidally office day you know is it that actually everything practical stops and I have the capacity to do some real spiritual trance from transformative stuff because actually not all days those are being posted some of these things I do actually have tiny tiny little ones as well but you know because we don't always know our insides well enough to understand that sometimes some days I don't have the emotional capacity to do some of the things that are all my to do this I don't have the spiritual weight today to battle that through or I don't have the physical energy to put a lot of thing through today and so if we don't start to administer our time according to the gift of God administrating time which is really what this is brick broken time practically I will do the wrong thing in the wrong time and and then it will be harder or it will break through or I'll ruin that relationship and so I write it don't God water or one of the top tips one of the things I am I I've done it so long there is an instinctive miss that I wake up and I think if I don't send that email today if I don't talk to that person then there's going to be a problem in that if I don't pray that prayer today and I don't tidy that you know and so it is it is done under the administrative timing of God and to hit the things on his timing and actually some things I'm like oh I really need to do that really need God says no you don't actually ever and then he covers that so that it's done in his timing and he may fix it okay and so it is empowering Hegarty it is empowering because there is a sense that i can manage a small list yeah you know really that's what we're releasing with that happens to be hi I practically don't work okay but that's what Sarah Jane is about to release this at this administration of time to know what to do when yeah and it's that key of understanding that we're not just spending time killing time filling time we're actually doing the things that God is saying there's an anointing for we're just bringing order and tidiness into our homes that will be a byproduct but actually we are saying God we want your administration and your administration and time to work in my life and in my home right now so in the name of Jesus we just pray for you so why don't you just receive posture of receiving so Jesus and God we thank you for the administration that is in heaven we thank you for the administration and order that is in heaven and God for your words of time and order that fit together with godly administration and time coming together and we say we desire this in our own lives and God we make room for godly order godly administration and timing to come together and it's almost like what I'm seeing is two parts of a key the bottom of the key and the and the the stave of the key coming together the administration is the thing that turns things and unlocks things and resets things in our lives and this stave is attached to the hand of God that has the top of this key that he is going to turn so we just put our households we put our family we put our businesses under this we put every every room in our house and every room in even in our heads that needs that godly administration and time order to come in and we say God would you let it be a lying now in Jesus name there's such a desire from you all to want to have this but I feel like we did pray for those of you that missed that we did pray for our own time clocks to be in order so if you're feeling a little bit like me I'm not quite not quite feeling it cuz I feel like there's a gap there just put your hand on yourself and say God put my body clock in time with your clock my time clock personally me Sarah Jane you whatever your name is in time with your time because we have to be in time with God before we can bring the godly administration in to order so Lord we just say we receive it and we say let it land let it connect and let us now move forward in your godly administration amen amen well our time is gone boy did we cover grind today I mean these are intense ours aren't they they really are all our hours they're not wrongly named so of course you've got this whole wave of creativity and joy in the colors you got the sobriety of the holiness and the kneeling movement that God is is resurrecting in the church and then of course you've got this administration of time and some top tips on how to spend
