Preparing for a Move of God (From here to eternity)
Apologies for being late. We had no idea that they closed. The M3 at that, we've found ourselves, not before they wouldn't do that on this Sunday morning and we found ourselves in the Cure of traffic and rang Davis. Soon as we possibly could to let him know that we might be a little late. And so we've been sitting in traffic for about an hour and a quarter hour and 20 minutes. What should it take Miss 10 or 15 minutes to an hour and 15 minutes with your hair and Ronnie made for you. Don't know how glad we are to come up on the 8:30. So we're coming through all these place. I said it was a big snob because of all the extra traffic and no, not yet, not yet. So I said I recognize that we will head so it's really good to be with you and in this place. Last time we came here. Just moved here. I think the second week that you will get you I am I on Thanks, I'll count move about too much wisdom. How you're there? I'm okay. So you can follow me in good to all those watching listening hearing on camera externally bless you. Thanks for joining us. Yeah. And we would just commenting that two years ago when we came here, I spoke on the River of God and somebody from Peru, I think it was somebody listening anyway on the on the external camera. Send at word today, that we were going to count into a bend in the river and there was a change of. It was a sign that there was a change of Direction coming. And the last two years, we've been on a journey of redirection, we've come to the bend of the river and it's going to Gold in Oz moving from where we are in Southampton up to the Essex Coast up to frinton Wharton area on the North Essex Coast which is very much a bruise. We've had a real time of redirection from the Lord and He spoken to us. So clearly prophetically that it's extraordinary and when we first got back, what we lost refill. Yeah. Now we're on the move and seeking to follow the lord, where he's sending. So What have I got on my heart today? Well, I just believe that though, we are getting ready for a serious move of the Holy Spirit. I believe God is visiting our nation already. And we're beginning to see the signs of life and growth. We're beginning to see salvation, we're beginning to see people calling on the name of the Lord. The Bible Society who are very conservative organization and very into facts and integrity and honesty. They commissioned a survey by yougov and you got of all right, Sekulow pole organization, who do all the stuff on the general election. And things like that. And I recognized to be in the company of a commission to investigate what's happening and people visiting Church in the UK. They did a survey in 19, 19, 19, 2019. I'm really not that old. They didn't. They did a survey in 2019. And last year, 2014 2024, they did another survey come back to us off the traveling, and that came out with the most remarkable statistics and The Bible Society produced documents of the findings. And I've had to do that as a quiet Revival. But there is a revival going on. There is a move of the spirit happening. Now die in our generation in our nation Church, attendance between 2019 and 2024 went from 6% to 13%. Is significant growth. That's more than double the number of people going to church. Now that we're in 2019, that's before covid. There are extraordinary, the tistic concerning young men, young men between the ages of 18 and 24 in 2019 that were 4% of 18 to 24 attending church there. Now, 16% of 18 to 20 for young. Men attending church, the statistics are astounding numbers of people are turning to Christ. Particularly younger people, particularly students, and people who are would become as young adults. There is also a very significant move going on among the 11 to 16 year old, but I didn't do a survey on that. If they had, I think it would have been even more surprising because we are hearing, and seeing of extraordinary salvation, Experiencing it in around situation, young men and young women having encounters with Jesus that changing their lives. Last week, I had my sister-in-law visit for the week. So my wife and her sister ganged up on me and I went through a most awful time of persecution. My, my sister-in-law goes to a, an Evangelical Church that has been getting smaller and smaller for the last number of years. I think they've between 10 and 12 people, maybe 15 on a good day. Mainly older people, nothing happened for years and years. I do a lot of stuff but, you know, they worked really hard, but it seemed very little one of the latest songs had an encounter with God at University. Came back from University, just a couple of weeks ago Almost Sunday morning gathering with all these friend. I suddenly I change. The 24-year old are these young men are full of questions and out into God and three of them in the first visit committed that life to Christ. So so there is this thing happening around us. Not very far from here. The other side of London in East London, one of the HTV churches, in Hackney cool together, a night of prayer for young people and 7 a.m. at 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. on the front on a Friday night. 2000 young people gathered together in sin Luke's in Hackney and June that evening, that was an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the likes of which we read and Acts chapter 2 and young people. What impacted by powerful manifestation of the Holy Spirit numbers of young people weeping falling on their faces, to rendering their lives. To Christ being filled with the Holy Spirit, God working at moving powerfully in their life.
Amazing mine Palm to the church in Milton Keynes in 1986. I was there at the beginning of this church play. I don't want to tell you that they would not any more people in that first. Those first gatherings in Milton came teams and they're all here in this place this morning.
A few weeks ago. They held a baptismal service. And for the first time as a church, they broke through the Thousand mark. 1996, small group of people 2025.
Broke through the Thousand Miles, I have 25 Services, they went to five services and they baptized 40 people on One Sunday. 40 people. Another friend of mine leaves a church in Cambridge just a few weeks ago. B baptized 35 got cold, Steve Campbell 35 on one Sunday morning. These statistics are not just kind of unusual, they are very significant. Other is sign of what God is doing for us in. Our nation will living in days. When God is moving, things are happening. That I really significant, we had a baptismal service just a few weeks ago and we baptized a young woman while she's young to me. She's she's probably mid-to-late thirties, a background is being awful. She's from a dysfunctional background.
She ended up in an abusive relationship, the guy left, she was left with a A Child, a sound that eventually couldn't talk to him to drink first. Then to drugs, the usual kind of patent found ourselves in an absolute mess and tried to take her own life. So she was sectioned and the child was taken from her and placed into care.
In hospital. She cried out to God somewhere in our past, you'd heard the gospel, and she cried out to God, and Jesus, save me at the end of try to take her own life. She came out of the hospital, I met Robert extraordinarily, but God has a way of putting people together. A couple from a church and all. And they took her off and began to work with her and help her, and encourage her, and that she made a full-blown commitment to follow Jesus. She was delivered and set free from drugs and from drink. And she stood up and gave her testimony, that she was baptized just a few weeks ago. And then she said, please pray for me. I'm going to court to try and get my son back. And since that happened a few weeks ago, they're giving her some back because this woman has been restored. Hey, we're living in days when God is doing extraordinary things. Why do I tell you that? Because if you didn't know, I've written a number of books and this is the first book I wrote, if you look at the front of this book it says it was written in 2000. And I wrote this in 2017, and I had a series of Dreams in 2014, that's 11 years ago. And all of them. Are about to move out the Holy Spirit but I want to read one particular dream to you that I had eleven years ago Festival to line the fact. The God is speaking in the what we're experiencing now is not just come out. The blue is as you your experience in yourself, you got this clear, prophetic word and to encourage you, the God. Speak today in the ways that he's always be spoken and he spoke through dreams right in the Book of Genesis and he still is now in the loss. He's been involved with on the south coast. So I'm I'm in the Stream. I'm watching this dream, I was with the church in the usual Sunday morning meeting. When someone I Heard a Voice suggested that the Lord wanted us to take his presents out onto the street we can cut and in the next scene we were gathered in a circle worshiping on the pavement in the same way as if we were in the church building it was a very real sense of the presence of God as we sang and prays together. I notice five or six young, people break into the circle and move to will several of the young people in the church. They cooled them out by name, so they obviously knew them. And they all asked what was going on. They said, this is this something really significant happening here? That was making an impression on them. One of them was a young man, interesting. Lee dressed, and displaying some Metro piercings at one or two. Tattoos on his buddy, I felt constrained to address it. Feeling inspired with a sense of prophetic, inspiration on mode, move towards him. And said, God loves. You is interested in your life. He knows all about you and your struggles and circumstances. Abyss, the young man's eyes filled with tears. And he asked me how I knew that I continue to encourage him with prophetic encouragement, that God was interested in breaking into his life and revealing himself to this young man invited into committing his life to the Lord Jesus to which is scented enthusiastically a dream. I'm seeing all this invited. One of the young people of the church, who knew the young man to lead them in the prayer of repentance.
And had a conversation with the Lord. It went something like this load. What's going on? Uptown the stuffing is stopping people on the streets and have seen. So little in terms of response, get this young man. So easily and willingly. I felt the Lord's Side. It's a new season. I felt the Lord's Side. It's a new season and the difference is my presents. I realized again that the purpose of the anointing is for the lost and broken.
it's a new season, that's what God said, to me, ten years ago, young people would turn to the Lord Open up to God suddenly and easily. And after all these years of working hard, and I'm struggling, and striving to, to get any kind of breakthrough that we were living in day. So, we would see days when there would be a new season that was 2017. I wrote that, we are 2025. That's what's happening. People coming to the Lord and of course, all of that takes me back to Acts chapter 22, the initial outpouring of the holy spirit in the bus that the judge And that we are in the process of expecting and believing for a new Fresh something and wonderful invasion of Holy Spirit, life and activity. I like the word Invasion. Inviting a community by eating a Halo God, invading our lives. One of the other statistics from that report is the Bible Cyrus, since I'm living in the past.
Since 2020 to 2019 to 2020 for Bible sales went up 87% to 87% during anyting. People reading the Bible that the world, we live in the chaos of covalent and tenants that they left in the anxiety of people who are hoping to find it in politics, or in business, or in the only place they're going to find. It is in Jesus. And of course the day that we're living in is it is it is it is a die when people are empty, there's a vacuum and I believe is people cry out to go. We going to see a new move all of the Holy Spirit and hearing
I'll post is that everybody be all right till I'll post. Okay,
I'm the type of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit, pulled out a wonderful move at the Holy Spirit without having to learn another script. You know, they were all together in one place and suddenly there was a sound from Heaven as of a rushing. Mighty Wind, how do you fill the place where they were sitting and there appeared on their heads flames of fire filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with them. The ability powerfully encounter with the Holy Spirit, the results of which meant, they went out into the marketplace and he was speaking in languages. They never learned these ignorant. Fisherman pizza was a fisherman.
Mobile something. When he became a Spanish speaking in, at least 14 languages, there are 14 Nations mentioned that people from Africa, people from Aisha, people from Europe, and they looking at one another with hearing them speak in their own language, is the wonderful works of God is inside because this was so extraordinary that Supernatural release of God's word and their own languages. Please to get something preaches and he tells him about Jesus, he tells him what Jesus is done. How about cry out? He doesn't have to say, right? Would you like to Bow your heads and close your eyes? And maybe somebody here would like to give their lives to Jesus Christ? You would like to raise your head.
Play cry out to him. I'd like to say what should we do in response to this? The holy spirit is tops alive. So powerfully what should we do? They say, and pizza says, you're not going to touch you now and he says repent and be baptized and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit which promises to you. Your children and to every future generation everyone, whom the Lord, Our God will call you realize. What that means do you It means that that word from pizza is relevant for us here today that he has on in 2025 and is this a game already made?
Both, all right. This is relevant for every individual 10 to experience. What he experienced, what happened to him, he's available for every single one, whom the Lord. I got your coffee already of you, as you told you to Salvation, put your hand up if you scold you to Salvation right, then he's cold you. So, this is for you. God wants you to know a powerful personal encounter with the holy spirit head because this is so important for us. At this time we come build the church. We come see the purposes of God fulfilled. Even the prophetic words fulfilled. If we personally and not filled with the Holy Spirit, I find it fascinating the white Jesus spoke to the disciples at the end of Matthew's gospel, Matthew 28:19, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe, whole things that I've told your mom's gospel, preached, the gospel 21 as the father sent me, so I send you a Luke's gospel, 24:49 White
All the white in the King James version is Kyrie, Kyrie white dunker. He says go go go but then Ian Lucas just done. The same guy who wrote Luke acts in the first chapter of Acts. We understand why the wait was included at the end of Luke 24 because in Acts 1 verse Jesus said to them, huh? You shall receive. Holla. After that the holy spirit is come upon you. That you may be Witnesses. I'm to me, in other words. Don't go. Why until you receive? It says power from on high until you were filled with the Holy Spirit. And if we make the most of this day, we going to see what is it.
A tsunami of souls, that we need to be people who already people who are filled with the Holy Spirit people who have opened their lives up to God. People who said, God would come take, hold of my life. Fill me with your spirit, people who are listening to the voice of God. People who understand the gifts of the holy spirit people who know that that ready to be used by God and willing and available to go to take. Hold of them. Because that, that connection that joining together of a, Spirit-filled people. And the purposes of God in the prophetic word is absolutely essential in this. In this outpouring of the spirit in Acts to there is this wonderful sense of inclusiveness and a wonderful sense of an openness as God speaks through the P-38 Joel. The God says, in the last days in peace of quotes. What what Joel said in Chapter 2 of his of his prophetic book in the Old Testament, spoke that quite openly about about what was going to happen. And I spoke about the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. He spoke about the all the barriers would be down that everybody would include be included. I love this cuz it was fresh and new. And dynamic says, I'll pour forth of my spirit on All Mankind and your sons. And your daughters will prophesy. This was revolutionary fluted before suddenly this outpouring of this area disappears. Latest young ladies, old lady's and everything in between is included. All of us. He doesn't just say, young men and women either not just daughters like their on. It says it on my 7 both men and women, I will pour out my spirit and they will prophesy Ladies of your prophesied yet. Have you moved in the prophetic. Soul will leave that today even the elders and one or two others. You to prophesy you to speak People. To People, the word of the Lord you took. Just as I did in that dream, go up to that young, man. I'm just to open a lollipop with a simple word of knowledge, and his eyes filled with tears and he surrenders his life to Jesus.
Doing that all over the country, all over the place.
God wants to fill you with the Holy Spirit. And for you to become a communicator, of the Divine will of the Divine mind of the prophetic word and even the old cultures left out. I think I'm the oldest old boy here. There might be someone older than me. But I swear to God, believe was significant as well. But God still speaking to us through us and I believe in God to fill me with his spirit and a great new season that I might be effective and fruitful day that I might prophesy. I might communicate something of God, through woods and knowledge through. What I went through being used by God in healing and miracles and actions of faith, I believe God wants to do that. So I eat social class education, none of those things matter. As I mentioned on it, I love the white pieces as best. He says, he even on my own servants, both men and women. Florist. All right, so even on the lowest least educated least capable people. Haha, I never got any gcsa you. So I'm not good at anything. It doesn't matter. Cuz God says, I'll pour out my spirit on All Flesh, and it's inclusive men, and women and rice.
I don't know if you've read the list in Acts chapter 2 but 14 different nations and mentioned and that from Aisha.
No, I ain't. Yeah. Yeah, you shouldn't wonderful. Yeah. And Africa, Africa, Africa. And Europeans any Europeans. Yeah, yeah.
Call includes. Everybody from every nation of every age of both, genders of all social classes, cuz we need clever people, and we need Ordinary People and God takes out about. I love it. I told her, it was a fisherman and probably didn't know Tables. How do you take, hold of poor who's educated in the best university in the line? I need Spokes and you need to oil and he needs you and you need me to open Airlines up to him cuz that's the challenge friends. That's the challenge today. That's the challenge for me. That's the challenge for you cuz the end of the day. What's a 04? Where's it going?
No. The next one. Not 21 happening. Extraordinary events, next bus. And it shall come to pass. Whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be. Well, what's this new season about this? New season, is about people coming into a relationship with Jesus. This new season is about people who don't yet know, Jesus, Calling on the name of the Lord is New Seasons. Open closed. Opening up to the Lord, you know, and it is about seasons. You know, God put seasons in place. The reason the purpose, you know, when he created the world, he put seasons in place and we can't do without any help. We need the winter and the spring, and the summer, and the older, we need those seasons and all of the season. The Harvest it sold for the Harvest. Even the winter when things are tough and not much is happening. There's a lot going on in preparation in the spring. When you see very little of this was going on. I didn't know in the summer, things come to fullness and to harvest in the early order I'm in the process begins again. And I believe we're coming in to a season of harvest. That's what God showed me 10. 11 years ago, in that dream, it's a new season yeah, you know, when Paul was talking to the young man, Timothy 2, Timothy 4 and he's calling him to have gotten into Ministry and he said to 2 Timothy,
In season.
That was good. Who said that? Who said that.
In season and out of season whipping whipping preaching, out of season. We've been cuz it cuz we told to cuz we need to go, we need to share the gospel and we've been doing that, but it's out of season. But we're coming into season for evangelism wants to commit his life to you.
The harvest season. God wants to give us a tsunami have sauce.
But I think 3001. Blow is a pretty good tsunami. They do 3,000 people make a commitment to give their lives to Jesus. I surrender to him in response to these Spirit-filled men and women. You share the truth about Jesus is speaking all the Titans in the used in the miraculous expression of God's would grab people's attention and I believe with that friends and I believe we need to be ready cuz I believe God is going to do that, you know. I play the piano. Badly. I don't know if you remember, let's do some some of your sake, too. Young play my Powers public for years and I'm just began to play it. Play through the old hymn book, 15 is in Ministry. The Redemption. Hymnal was my kind of the atom play through the last Saturday morning. I sat down. And I got to the gospel section. That's some real gospel hymn written by people, like Fanny Crosby and others. What happened? I play this hand. Just as I am. Without One Plea. But that your blood was shed for me and that thou, B me come to the Lamb of God. I, and I played it a few times and I began to sing it.
And the presence of God came on me. Golfers are with me.
That's all I saying, oh Lamb of God, I come How come it was a moment? A moment of encounter.
And I said to God, God. I want to be part of what you're doing right now. How come? So Hayden will usually associate with Billy Graham and people coming and giving their lives to Christ, but it was more than that. For me, at that moment. It was about me saying, God I want to be filled with your spirit, God, I want to know you're in a deeper more intimate way. Lord, I I commit myself to you to your purpose is one of the reason we're moving is because God is cold, is to go to be part of a network of church is that that I really open to God and and seeing some pretty good things happening and we believe God wants us to be part of that. I had to the Harvest is Sia getting that place in a move that the holy spirit that long? I don't know how long I'm believing at least 10 years but who knows how long I might have. But I long to be part of a move of the spirit, In the 1980s. We saw God move. I was part of a church That Grew From midst has to just under 300 in about 4 years we still got to do some wonderful things over in Essex and Sarah got this some extraordinary things. His people number of people in Ministry around the country that God took hold up at that time. My wife Let It Go a women's ministry Source. I'm not 40 or 50 women come to Christ over. Of 18 months of me. We just saw God doing some extraordinary things. We didn't pray for people to be filled with the Holy Spirit, they came into the atmosphere of his presence and I, and I just encountered, God, they got saved and a young girl from a really difficult dysfunctional background. She came in 16-year out. She got saved on the Sunday. We had a prayer gathering on the Tuesday. She said, can I come Who's you can, cuz she came. And she sat next to me in this prayer meeting with singing the first song and off to the first song with singing praises to God and singing in other tongues and on this 16 year old kid who's just been saved on the Sunday. She's speaking wind tongues. So is that what happened? She said I was always just Worship in Jesus and I love him so much and I just felt this language, and my just began to speak at the prices of call Tina. I'm part of something like that, but it it didn't reach his full potential. And the 90's that was, that move of the spirit that that was kind of associated with Toronto. Lots of really good things happening, and people encountering Jesus. And there was some remarkable prophecies about this going out on the streets and whatever, but it never did go out in the street. So you know why? Cuz we kept coming back and asking for more. And so we just came back the more of what God meant to Tops, the nation and whatever turned into a self-indulgent seeking of personal blessing. I really believe. And here we are again. Here we are again. And the church is that I got a Reaper tsunami ourselves or those who come and say, oh Lamb of God.
I keep myself to you to be part of what you doing. That's my message this morning. I'm done. Tell right. Yeah, let's just praise Yahweh.
