Faith, Hope and Love

Praise God we’re going to just go a little further today we’re talking still about grace and I want to talk about faith and hope and love but mainly faith and love but before we just look at that we need to ask ourselves what do we emanate? what do you emanate? we all emanate something in case you can’t there’s no neutral ground in what you give off okay What kind of atmosphere do you create by being there? It’s important that we understand this because we’re talking about spiritual laws and so I want us to kind of look at this today and when we look at defining power we’re defining power the Greek word dunamis it’s simply a word which means the Greek word means basically anything is possible the word dunamis comes from a root which means it’s possible okay so that kind of power we talk about power or the dunamis you shall receive power that power is capable of anything anything is possible and power we know is a form of energy has a frequency, has a wavelength, has a pulse, has a vibration, if you like. Electricity, it has a vibration, it’s an energy. Sound coming out of these speakers comes out with a certain, what you hear is vibrations. Okay, the sound, the speakers send out a vibration which we understand as sound and light, all light has various, you know, frequencies, wavelengths, vibrations. angels give off a certain vibration certain power emanation Jesus the same human spirits give off a vibration and you know lasers alter the wavelength of light and tune the wavelength of light you know normal light has a wide wavelength it’s scattered but a laser is focused okay It’s and so changes, a laser changes basically just the wavelength, the vibration, the wavelength of that light and it is more focused, more uniform and it’s, it’s you know, laser is basically a focused light it can cut through steel depending on the intensity of it and the color of the laser or it can cut and cataract off your eye, it can be so gentle depending on the wavelength of the light that’s emanating through that laser so when we’re talking about all power gives off a vibration and all living things give off a vibration emanate a power or a vibration the new age people understand this but the church doesn’t so When I use the term vibration, you know what I mean, right? Talking about power, talking about, you know, it can be from many sources, energy, power, frequency, vibration. In 1 Corinthians 13 and verse 13, it reads: And now abideth faith and hope and love. These three. But the greatest of these is love. and the word their greatest is the greatest in intensity of vibration or power is love these are three eternal things they will remain forever how many of you know when you get to heaven you will still exercise hope and you need to think about that because when we think when we get to heaven everything’s perfect we don’t need to hope for anything we don’t need hope oh yes you do it’s an eternal thing see eternal thing faith hope and love love is the foundation and the greatest of the three okay first John 4 and verse 16 says and we have known and believed the love that God hath for us for God is love and if you dwell in love you dwell in God and God in you okay and so we’ve been talking about this for a number of weeks it’s important that we grasp it we must be established in love it must be your chief goal it’s because when you flow in love you flow in God it’s that easy you know we have all kind of complicated theories for flowing in the spirit but when you just simply if you want to kind of dilute it crystallize it it’s when you flow if you’re flowing in love you’re flowing in God that’s what it means to abide in God you abide in love you abide in Him okay and we’ve been saying for weeks you know God is love everything about him is love he is love that’s the way he is okay and we must understand this everything that flows from God flows out of love it’s the current that all of him flows in okay it’s not just a part of him it is him and when that happens to us you become one with him Now, He exists in love Love is a power, it’s an energy In fact, the power or the energy of love is one of the highest vibrations or powers in the universe Now, we need to understand that, we need to appreciate that Faith has a tremendous power or a vibration Hope has another tremendous outflow from us that love is the greatest It’s a force, it’s tangible it is a power, it is an energy, okay? and it says in 1 John 4, He that loveth not does not know God but God is love you see, don’t know what God is like if we don’t love you know, He is the power source of God is love alright and if you dwell, if you are to dwell with God you must enter His state of being if you’re going to relate to Him you see our problem with God is incompatibility we’re not compatible with God so that we cannot understand Him in many areas in many ways we can’t relate to Him in many ways because we’re not compatible with Him okay now that compatibility becoming compatible is to do with love because that’s the state of His being the more our being is that of love the more compatible we become with Him okay and get out of love you get out of God you know you can’t have fellowship with a fish at least most people can’t because you’re not compatible with a fish okay you know God is a species of love okay you can’t have fellowship with Him unless you’re compatible with Him and He is love it’s the definition of his being okay and so we need to understand that we’ve been talking about it for weeks it’s very very important and 5 tells us then then this is the message which we have heard of him and declare unto you that God is light and in him is no darkness again you have the same terminology God is light okay light is a power It’s actually, it’s the primal substance for all existing things, light. Everything consists or is powered by light. It’s the power source of the atoms. It’s the power source for every living thing. And light shapes and forms everything into existence. It’s only over the last 10 years that scientists have realized that, you know, dissecting the atom was being very difficult and in fact I don’t believe they got to the bottom of it yet they got to certain levels of that but they found at one level and they began to understand that it was powered by light okay, now the atom is the basis of everything that exists everything is made of atoms, you’re made of atoms you know, this table is made of atoms everything, and they’re moving. In fact, there is more space in this pulpit than you could believe. 99.9% of your body is space. Open space. Now when you think about that, most of it in the head, but you know, open space. Do you think, how can that be? Because we’re made of animals, you see, we think of a universe, we think of stars, which are, you know, multiple light years away but the space between some of the atoms in your body is just that in comparison a lot of space and powered by light the inflow of light, you see, can restore you take a withered arm, it degenerates, someone has a withered arm, it starts to degenerate and the atoms in that begin to change and so it becomes withered and it begins to be destroyed simply because the atoms are changing and you pray for that person and the power of God and the light of God flows into that into the atoms in those and now it just changes it over and over restores it back to normal that’s how limbs can grow out I’ve only seen that twice in my entire ministry where a limb has grown out within a number of minutes now you think now how can that be? because the when light enters in and that light is shaped and begins to shape those atoms back to their original state it just quickly evolves into where it was the inflow of life you know can restore anything love is God’s state of being love generates light flows out as light when you love you emanate light now understanding that is very very important because light is controlled and manipulated by faith see these are eternal things love hope and faith the first thing that God said was let there be light you see light flows when you love you begin to emanate a substance called light, whether it’s visible or whatever wavelength it’s on or not, it begins to emanate from you. Okay, and light is a power and it is controlled and manipulated by faith and by words. Now think about that, I want you to think about it, faith and words. 6 says, For in Jesus Christ there is neither circumcision availeth anything nor uncircumcision. He’s not, he says, It’s not works, he said, but faith, which works by what? Love, but faith which worketh by love. So Paul is saying, you know, it’s faith, it’s not works, it’s grace, it’s not law. and faith works by love that word works there’s a Greek word energeo which we get a word energy from and so faith is energized by love love is a power okay and so we have this kind of concept right now you see you you are emanating something and there’s no middle ground there’s no neutral ground you’re emanating something from your life love speaks of a relationship abiding in his realm it’s a state of being it’s a power that flows from us faith comes as a relation as a result of a relationship hearing okay light is a power that springs forth and forms itself into what faith believes for in Hebrews 11 verse 1 says now faith is the substance of things hoped for faith is not just some kind of mental asset it’s a substance of things hoped for it is the evidence of things we cannot yet see once you have faith another power is set up okay another power comes into being which interacts with light which flows from us when we love there’s two mix okay and substance is formed the Greek word there substance great you know faith is a substance the Greek word is hypostasis and it means to give substance to evidence proof okay now faith is a power that forms light into substance how did this world come into being? by faith by vision by faith and through words God said let there be and there was now we are made in the image and the likeness of God so we are creative and you say well I’m not creative you are you’re creating things every day you’re creating atmospheres that have results every day of your life these are not intangible things they are fields of power and you know Faith is a substance of things hoped for. It forms. Faith is a power which forms light into substance. That power is sent forth by love and compassion. How many times it said that Jesus had compassion and He healed them? Either was love, there was faith, and there was words which formed things into what they were believing for. Love is the motivational power, faith commands life to form into substance. Okay? Love is a substance, it’s a power that flows out of you as light. And the more love, the more light you have. The more love, the more you abide in Him. The more love, the more compatible you are with God. And the more compatible you are with Him, determines your relationship with Him on the level of your relationship with Him faith and words shape or harness the light to accomplish something channels the light into a healing frequency or revelation or a creative move a creative thing uh… whatever the person is believing for so faith finally awaits a command to form into whatever that person is believing for that’s why your words are very very important how many of you know that your words are not just abstract they are a power the words that I’m speaking now are a vibration which come out through those speakers the vibration comes out through my mouth but also is picked up through the mic comes through the through the speakers it’s a power 22 says Jesus answered them and said have the faith of God for verily I say unto you whatsoever you shall say unto this mountain be removed cast into the scene don’t doubt in your heart and shall believe that those things which you sayeth shall come to pass he shall have whatsoever he sayeth what you say therefore I say unto you whatsoever things you desire when you pray believe that you receive them and you shall have them note, it says have God’s faith first of all then speak faith awaits a command that’s why in Isaiah 57 and verse 19 it says, God says I create the fruit of your lips I create the fruit of your lips you see, words are power they are a form of energy and they will fill the place where you are they’ll fill your room, they’ll fill your surroundings Words are a power, you know, words are not lost, words are transformed into energy, you know, comes out as an energy through the speakers, comes out through my voice as an energy, it’s a vibration, it’s an energy and words are not lost, they are transformed into energy and can be recalled that’s why Jesus said in Matthew 12:36 He said But I say unto you that every idle word which men shall speak shall give an account in the day of judgment. Are you going to hear those words again? Isn’t that a scary thought? You’re going to hear those words again unless we repent and get rid of them. But you see words can be recalled. They don’t die. Once it’s said, it’s said. and uh… you know words are very very powerful words have a very strong vibration not as strong as love but they have a very strong vibration or energy you know you can bloom under the right spoken words or you can wither people can you know speak to you and you can wither under their words because it’s a power it’s a it’s a field it’s a vibration and uh… you know Clinical tests have shown that hard rock music can wither a plant 15 hours, 15 hours of hard rock music and withered the plant Now why is that so? Because it is a force It’s an energy It’s a power That’s why it’s important to speak to your plants nicely It’s a force It’s a power. I’m serious It is a power you see you know you imagine what it does to human beings you see it’s it’s you know cows you know they found that in the same experiments that cows gave off more milk when they played certain kinds of music to them and hens gave more eggs now you know some farmers have adopted this now but it’s not based on some crazy thing because what they’re doing you’re emanating a power a field of influence an atmosphere and it remains there you see and that’s so in the negative as well as in the positive for instance in Luke chapter 11 and verse 33 verse 34 it says the light of the body is the eye and when your eye is single your whole body is full of light but when your eye is evil the body is full of darkness okay we understand that principle your focus you know what you focus on you connect with and if it’s negative you connect with darkness if it’s God and good and positive you connect with light your focus and when your focus is single to God your body is going to be full of light but he said if your eye is not, if your eye is evil then the body also is full of darkness and he said this, he said now be careful he said take heed that the light which is in you be not darkness if the whole body therefore be full of life having no part dark the whole shall be full of light it is when a bright shining candle give forth its light but he used this phrase take heed that the light in you isn’t a negative form of light and so you see that is that is we need to understand that because you know human beings are created in the image and the likeness of God and they have creative power sons of God we have creative power and God says I create the fruit of your lips what you say will be created human beings have that potential they have that power and you see words are very very powerful love is powerful faith is very powerful connected with words are three a tremendous force you add another factor to that and that’s enthusiasm you add another dimension again to this this this whole creative process of who we are you see and if you people go around and we all we’re always talking negative we’re always talking what we can’t be what this that and the other you create that environment it’s a negative light and you create that environment around you and when you create it it will begin to form itself into being into substance it will have fruit in your life and in your circumstances so we’re saying that love energizes faith and faith is released as a great power when it is accompanied by words now we need to understand faith cannot be separated from relationship faith comes out of relationship with God and then the process goes from there and that relationship is a love relationship faith is imparted when you touch the heart of God in some way out of communion his will is known and faith is imparted okay now in order to deal with another power which is very powerful and that is the power of emotion emotion is not just some abstract thing it fills the room it fills an office, it fills an area now when faith is imparted to the heart it triggers emotion and that emotion sparks enthusiasm see, what are you emanating? you’re kind of catching on where I’m going now? what are you emanating? faith is imparted to the heart when it’s imparted to the heart it triggers, it must touch the emotions when it touches the emotions it sparks enthusiasm enthusiasm is the spark of God in action in the soul of man it is something of God enthusiasm is the breath and life of incentive you know it is faith in action and so the thoughts of God when they’re transplanted into our heart those thoughts I’m going to put this, those thoughts become emotion as well they touch our emotion you know you say emotion is E-motion it’s energy in motion when you manifest emotion you’re manifesting energy in motion thoughts when infused with emotion set up a vibration or an energy that is so powerful it begins to form light into substance whether it’s healing whether it’s circumstances whether it’s financial whatever it is when it touches faith touches your emotions spoken with words it sets up a flow of God’s Spirit a tremendous powerful force and that power which begins to form light into substance that is the faith process you know in James 5 and verse 16 says confess your faults one to another pray for one another that you might be healed then he said this the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much okay the word effectual there now why did they put that word in? it’s uh… it’s a Greek word it’s the same Greek word for energy energeo the it says the energized fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much how is it energized? talking about the same power power energy you know the same the same word is used in Galatians 2:8 it says for it says for he that wrought effectually powerfully energized in Peter talking about the Holy Spirit uh… he that wrought effectually in Peter the apostle of circumstances the same was effectual almighty is translated energy in me towards the Gentiles, talking about the energy of God in a person it’s the same word when we have that energy in prayer it availeth much that’s what we’re saying you see the the the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much okay effectual energized through love through faith which touches emotion sparks enthusiasm and you’re alive with the thing you see there’s a process here God wants you to feel it’s not just some mental thing you’ve got to feel it’s got to touch your emotions your emotions are part of the power flow in this whole thing and uh… you know 6 it says for in Jesus Christ now the circumcision or law doesn’t avail anything but faith which is energized by love faith which worketh by love so we’re talking about a tremendous force here a force or a power you see? and we think well you know it’s too difficult, it’s not difficult you see? enthusiasm when it’s sparked by God is a very powerful thing see, what do you emanate? what is coming forth from your life? what do you give off? you know, if you had a room full of people emanating the right thing the room would be dynamic the force in that room the vibration, the power the life you see would be dynamic it’s well known that you will never achieve in anything unless you’re one like what you’re doing and you’re enthusiastic about it why? because these are god-given principles you gotta like what you’re doing if you don’t like what you’re doing you’re not going to succeed okay and that goes for church goes for praying you don’t like what you’re doing you’re not going to succeed you say well I don’t particularly like praying if many of you are honest here today many of you would say you know I’m not going to ask you okay but you’d say I don’t like praying it’s boring I don’t like praying why well because nothing happens and there’s no feel about it, there’s no enthusiasm in it there’s no emotion attached to it it’s dead so you don’t like it you don’t connect with God so there’s no communion well you’re saying the other week Jesus prayed all night and he’d rather pray than eat because it was a vital connection with his Father and this whole thing of Christianity is supposed to be felt it’s not just an intellectual thing, you’re supposed to feel it it’s supposed to touch your emotions, it’s supposed to touch your enthusiasm comes out of the heart through love love is an incredible power, you know just the power of love, increased power of love can heal a person not only that, when it’s set up in your life and it’s flowing through you that power and love is a tremendous vibration very powerful vibration I don’t know what wavelength it would flow on but it’s very strong when that is flowing through your physical body it begins to affect every atom in your body like I was saying two weeks ago begins to change you it begins to be full of light it begins to affect every organ of your body you see the rapture as I was saying is not some great transactional event it’s just stepping over you’re almost there by the time it happens the resurrection body is simply this every item in your body is now energized with the life of God and it’s changed you see and there’s going to be a people who will step into that you see just step into that, be changed the power of light in a person and Jesus said we are supposed to be the light of the world You know, what do you emanate? What environment do you create? People walk into your home, what do they meet in the unseen realm? What force, what energy, what vibrations are in your home? and they step into it and you create that by the way you think and the way you are the way you talk and the way you feel and people will blossom under that you will blossom if it’s the correct thing it’s light see this is how all creative things come into being all created things, all things that are created come into being this way it’s how God breathed you know by the breath of His mouth, by the Word of the Lord and by the breath of His mouth the Bible tells us that the worlds were made breath, spoken word and you can create around you You see, what happens when you’re going… Have you ever been gone into a kind of a, let’s say, a whole fellowship and the atmosphere is being… Have you felt that before? You know, the atmosphere, it’s hard. What is that? Well, it’s what’s actually in the house, it’s what’s in the room. Well, there are two factors, demonic power can come in with the people who are coming. or there can be opposition, but generally speaking it’s created by the vibrations, the atmosphere, the power that’s been released from the people into that room you know and it’s either good, it’s either hard or it’s either easy people come into that room and they’ve got attitudes you’ve got vibrational attitudes in the room, that sets up a power in the room and it’s very hard to get people into the presence of God when they’ve got an attitude that’s why love is the most important thing of all it gets rid of all attitudes and if we could only learn, you see, to be, to be love not to just ex but to be love as a part of our being, the way we are, our existence, our very life love what we would give off when we start to move in the spirit and the gifts of the spirit we’d be enhanced so greatly that’s why Paul said in 1 Corinthians 13 after dealing with the gifts he said now I’m going to show you a better way to do this and what did he talk about? a more excellent way was love so you can have the gifts and they’re just a tinkling symbol and the impartation doesn’t last there might be an impartation at the time but it doesn’t last in the person unless it’s channeled into that person with love it doesn’t remain that’s why people sometimes get healed through a gift of the Spirit and it’s gone within a week but it has to be imparted with love that’s got to be the motive, that’s got to be the… and they said otherwise it’s just a tinkling symbol you see if you enter into this realm we become compatible with God he said well what God is like if you stood in the presence of God I’m talking about God the Father you stood in the presence of God you’d be overwhelmed by two things love and light those two things would just overwhelm you remember Paul on the road to Damascus a light just overwhelmed him you see that’s what God is he is love and he is light those two things and being in his presence and the more the more this is set up in our life as a way of life the more His love and His life begins to emanate through us you see we always want formulas we want someone to lay hands on us and impart something to us and God says now look here you can do that for the rest of your life but he said I want you to be set up in your life in such a way I want you to become love when that happens all of these things will be so powerful that it will change everything around you and everywhere you go you’ll give off something unseen but it will be powerful and people will like to be with you, they’ll like to be in your presence like to be in your home because there’s something there which gives itself off, it gives off you know, we don’t often teach, they’re not often taught in Pentecostal circles and because of it they miss the major thing that God is after I want to tell you, when God touches your emotions and that triggers enthusiasm you start emanating something really really powerful you mean in the presence of someone who’s really enthusiastic doesn’t it do something to you right? touches you as well because it’s not just a feeling not just it’s a power that’s released but if you come in and say you know I’ve had a bad day and I’m gonna have a bad day tomorrow and I’m fed up and I’m depressed the vibrations are so strong on that you know you walk up to some people and it’s so strong the vibration is so strong it actually overwhelms some of your brain and you decide to get a headache and it’s just what they’re giving off not necessary, it’s not even necessarily demonic it can be an attitude it’s a bad attitude you know You know, the Beatitudes are attitudes you are supposed to be. And I mean, you look at the Beatitudes, it’s been summed up in one word and that’s love. Now how do you get into that? You say, Oh, brother, there’s some people I couldn’t love. I know how you feel. Some people are so trying. You know, and you think, well, you know, you don’t have to be personal friends with everyone, but you have to love everyone. You can choose your friends, not your relatives, but you can choose your friends. Okay? But you know, you say, well, how can I do this? One, by desire. You have to desire it. you don’t desire it, well, forget it but if you really want to desire this, if it’s a real strong desire in your life to become like that that’s the main first, that’s a major step towards it and secondly you have to by choice, choose to love now when you do that and you keep doing that, you’re not always going to get it right but when you do that and you keep doing that, God will add another dimension that dimension is His love to it okay when that happens it’ll become easy but God doesn’t add his love and say now love you have to choose to be like God and God is love the thing is you see we think well we see people’s problems and we see the way they are and we see their attitudes and we think you know Lord I can’t put up with this this is you know it’s ridiculous we don’t know you know really you don’t know what causes that person to be like that there’s no way you can know that you know you don’t know you don’t know the hereditary line you don’t know the factors that have come in you don’t know you’re not in a place to say that person should not be like that you know just love them see if you love them they will change they will slowly but surely change don’t set up an attitude Once an attitude is set up, you cut it off straight away to stop that vibration going out because that person will pick it up very strongly You know when someone’s got an attitude towards you, you know it’s easy to pick You don’t have to be a psychiatrist to pick it You don’t have to have the gifts of the Spirit, it’s very plain, you feel it straight away, that attitude, okay? Don’t do that Choose, you see, choose, choose, it’s a choice, choose to love, choose desire and choose to be like God in that area you’re going to get it right all the time but start choose to be that way not out of some sanctimonious oh I’ve got to love that person but because God loves them God cares about them you love them you care about them and your attitude towards them your thinking and your emotions towards them have to be one of love if you’ll start to do that God will add his love into it another dimension will come in when that happens it becomes even very powerful because there’s a love of God is added when God’s love is entered in when that comes in it opens up another sphere it opens up another dimension of insight insight into why the person is the way they are and that helps you to love them even further but that doesn’t happen until God’s love is joined to it when God’s love becomes joined to your love and your desire it opens up a new dimension in the spirit because you’re becoming compatible with God and you’re beginning to see how he sees you’re beginning to feel how he feels and you cannot do that with that you start to love okay? and then out of that I want to tell you something, there’s a new sound coming to the body of Christ there is a new sound coming, a new music, a new sound, a new vibration if you like but it will not come and it’s only going to be released when people come into one thing that’s oneness in love when that happens when that happens there’ll be a new sound and the vibration will be so powerful in that sound that people coming into that will be overwhelmed by the presence and love of God but it will not come that new sound is not just musical you know expertise it’s that’s necessary and that’s good but it’s not just that you see that music a musician plays, you sing, you clap it comes out of what you are the music will be on the vibration of what’s coming out of you understand that? and if you get some musicians and a congregation together in love there’ll be a new sound begin to come forth and also see if you love nature If you love God’s creation and there’s a right attitude towards that and there’s a understanding of that realm, that sound also will be added to it. You know the revival in Nagaland in the eighties, in the early eighties, it was so intense that the entire country, the entire state of Nagaland, ninety-nine percent were converted in the country and spirit-filled. they had no churches, buildings, you know it was crazy, they had everything in the open air and the entire country was just just bathed in a in an atmosphere you could walk into it, the jails were emptied and it was a remarkable move of God that I don’t know, I’m not in touch with it now but up to five years ago was still going very very strong and a powerful move of God and they held it in the open air because they’re nowhere else you know the whole nation was converted basically they began to send missionaries out but when they began to worship they said there was a sound that came and Day Short, some of you might know Day Short talked to me about it there was a sound that came out of that and he said as they began to get into that and it went for hours said eventually the trees began to sway to the movement of the rhythm of the music and this would go on for hours and he said if there were two trees together they’d start to clap their hands together now the Bible says the trees of the field shall clap their hands and we think oh you know spiritualize it it was literal and the eyewitness accounts of this from virtually everyone who visited Nagaland it’s very hard to get in but if you could get a permit to get in and they said the whole of creation began to join in and they said the sound was so indifferent, so intense that anyone who was sick who was just in that sound got healed instantly you know and that was among Baptist churches we Pentecostals think we’ve got it all there was no Pentecostal church oh they got filled with the Spirit you know because one thing just it was such a wave of God’s presence and glory and power if we can get it right if we get this one thing right we’ll be moving into some home fellowships if those home fellowships have one thing in common with just one goal that the people in those fellowships are really going to love each other going to stand for each other they’re going to emanate love the power of that will be enormous instead of vying for position and wanting to be heard and wanting to exercise your gift and their gift, just be loving just be there together and care for each other that’s all I want to tell you unless we can get to that we will never get into where God wants to take us there is no other route in there is no other road into it and you think oh glory just start loving make it your goal make it your aim and you know one of the another very very powerful vibration is released when you become thankful thankful just being thankful to God the power that is released from that is so intense and it will release tremendous things into your life that power will go out and release things into your life but you see being thankful just being thankful you say well I’ve got it hard and it’s difficult look you need to live in some parts of the world today you need to live in Kosovo at the moment you need to live in some parts of the world we have got so much to be thankful for most of the world is worse off than you we got so much, and if you start to be thankful we take things for granted, but if you start to be thankful it releases a power a tremendous power that begins to work for you and releases God to work on your behalf these things, you see it’s by grace, he just says love, be thankful worship me and I’ll do the rest work into your life and you know love sets it all in motion when you come into rest you stop striving and just love God as a conscious direction of your love with some focus you know sometimes you’ve just got to sit down and set your focus and love God for fifteen to ten ten fifteen minutes just with a clear focus just love God with feeling with projection with … visualization just love God you need to practice that and set it up in your life so that it becomes so easy for you to do because the focus is very very important things will begin to happen God’s love will slowly be imparted to you and you will change okay let’s just summarize this and we’ll close it’s um Okay, when love is what you are, not just what you give but when it’s what you are, the more you love, the more love is perfected in you, the more compatible you become with God, okay? Your relationship changes because he exists in love, you’ve got to be in the same existence as him, okay? Secondly, love flows out of you as a power which is light Light is the basis of all things material and spiritual Faith is imparted out of fellowship with God, that’s out of loving God True faith sparks emotion and enthusiasm Emotion intensifies the flow of the power or the energy Then when words are spoken with feeling or emotion Light begins to form into the thing desired You just have to hold fast, remain focused and in time the thing desired will come forth That’s all a work of grace and all I have to do is love It’s as simple as that If you lock yourself into that process your life will change radically your relationship with God will change radically your prayer life will change in a tremendous way and your words will become truly prophetic they will speak into being the things that you desire which have been sparked by God your life will be filled with enthusiasm and you’ll be caught up in love and none of the negative things that are so much around us see why is it that so many people get hurt in a church setting? why is it? you’re safer in the world you’re safer in the office where you work than you are in church I’m talking about every church you’re safer in that office, why is that? because spiritful people have a power, there is an energy and when they’re nasty or have attitudes towards each other it becomes damaging and as that increases it becomes slander as that increases again it ostracizes each other and hurts come in and people say I don’t want to go to church anymore I said you know there’s coming a a new reformation there hasn’t been a reformation since the 1700s and out of the 1700s all kinds of thinking was formed both scientific and industrial all kinds of things which is now outdated totally outdated I want to tell you there’s a new Reformation coming to the church and when it happens the thing that you’ll first see is chaos and confusion God has to dismantle a lot of stuff and you look at it and think this is just lawlessness this is just chaos but out of that will come a people who really have the real thing and it will form itself into a new structure again into something which God wants but there’s going to be a transition period of what we call chaos it’s going to come and so many pastors are going to try and hold on to it and try and control, keep control of it but in the end they will not be able to because a force of people will arise who say we don’t want this anymore we don’t want this church anymore we don’t want to, it’s not good enough to come to church to learn something and go home and to stay unchanged and not have an effect on the world then you say we don’t want it anymore and God will look down and say okay and a new wave will sweep through and there’ll be absolute chaos as all of the control mechanisms fall apart in the church but out of that, that has to be necessary it’s an evolving into something new and fresh and greater in God and I want you to be those people who understand what’s going, what will happen and what is going on and what our responsibility is in the midst of it all because God’s going to raise up the people who love You have two choices. You can live under law, regulations, or you can choose to live through love. If you don’t love, you have to live by law. That’s the only alternative, otherwise you’ll throw off all restraint and go overboard. So if you don’t love, you have to live by law. And you’ll live in condemnation and frustration under law. but if you learn this new and living way if you learn what God’s been trying to bring the church into for such a long time that you’re not going to hurt each other you’re not going to cross the boundaries because you love these people and you won’t break the law because you love and out of that will come a new kind of people and a new force in the earth out of the dismantling of the old you see we cannot change the old you can’t like pump new life into it it has to be dismantled and it’ll be a difficult period when that happens but it believe you me it is coming we cannot stop it we cannot inject new into the old now and can’t say let’s revive the old, let’s get something better into it it’s not going to happen that way and you’re going to have eventually, I want to tell you, you’re going to have eventually in Perth and all around the world you’re going to have thousands upon thousands of people meeting in homes and slowly gravitating to true apostolic and prophetic ministry which will not control them but will release them to do the purposes of God in the land and there’ll be a freedom and it will not be a denomination and you will be free to work with God and what he has called you to there will be some organizations and there will be some kind of things set up to effectually do what the God has called people to do we understand all of that but I want to tell you, boy I feel an anointed when I’m talking now it’s going to happen it’s going to come and these people who are scattered and people who have had enough of the control and the pressure and the old and they scattered out there and they meet in homes eventually and they begin to get this thing right in love and begin to love the community begin to love each other eventually then there’ll be a re-gathering but it will be very very different the local churches we know it today will not exist anymore and people will come together from all over the place and then we’ll disperse again and they’ll come together again for input and then they’ll disperse again and the face of the church as we know it today will no longer exist it will be so different and you say well this is scary but it’s necessary it is absolutely necessary I want to tell you it’s going to happen it’s going to come it’s going to take place and that wave that’s going to come in will be so destructive to the structure of the church that all will be left will be seeming chaos and pastors will try and hold on to it and try and control it but in the end they’ll give away, give it away because they can’t God is rising a force of people and just like what happened in Europe in the late eighties where millions of people said, rose up and said we’ve had enough of the old in Eastern Europe and overthrew the system good people wanted to be free that was a prophetic warning and foresight to the church the same is going to happen but I’ll tell you something glorious is going to come out of the ashes something glorious is going to arise something magnificent and the church no longer will be this denomination that denomination it’ll be people who are free to come together at any time under prophetic apostolic teaching ministries anywhere without any pressure without and they’ll be ministered to and they’ll go out and minister again into their areas which God has called them to and they’ll come together and they’ll be free they’ll be free and it will be it will be a whole new day that’s going to come upon the church I will tell you that what I’m saying to you today I kind of… there is an anointing what I’m saying and it’s going to change and the manipulation is going to go and the finances the thing you know the curse on the church of how they raise finance it’s going to disappear God’s people are going to come together as one and there’ll be times when they’ll come together in the open air and there’ll be fifty, sixty, seventy thousand people will come together and it will be a Sunday they’ll say we just want to come together and there’ll be huge stages where God’s prophetic word and the apostolic ministry will bring forth what God is saying and they’ll go out again and they’ll do what God has called them to do and they’ll be what we call parachurch organizations in the midst of this doing what God has called them to do and God’s Spirit will be so powerful in the midst of these people you see there’s a revolution coming to the church there is a new reformation which is coming which is going to change the very face of things and God’s glory God’s going to get the glory no ministry will get the glory there’ll be no ministry idols at all left and God will start to get the glory and this will be not something which man has engineered but it will be something which God has engineered and man cannot get the glory in that and all we have to do is step back and let this river find its own course and not try to manipulate it because it will flow where it flows just as water flows where it flows and if we’re brave enough to see this is needed and this is coming and understand it you know and conventions as we understand them today which are alright but as we understand will be a thing of the past they’ll change into something far different and far greater you know and many times it won’t be advertised but people by the Spirit will gravitate and come we’re going to see a whole different kind of church in the earth coming forth and if you’re tired of church that’s a good sign God is stirring something on the inside there’s a reformation coming God’s going to do a new thing in the earth it’s going to revolutionize missions I want to tell you it’s going to change the very face of things.
