Doug shared at a young adult encounter night with over 500 hungry and passionate worshipers in attendance.

4
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:22,300
He shared on preparing our hearts for authentic communion and the five sins that kept Israel out of their promised land

5
00:00:22,300 --> 00:00:24,700
and how this applies to us today.

6

00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:46,000
Now let's join our host, Doug Stringer.

10
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:53,700
We're going to take a moment just to get prepared in our hearts for a renewed revelation of the manifest presence of God.

11
00:00:53,700 --> 00:01:03,400
Father, we thank you that you have already been invited here.

12
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:15,200
And I think about the disciples after the resurrection who are just wondering and hoping and just trying to figure out what just took place.

13
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:27,000
And then you showed up and they didn't even recognize you.

14
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:34,500
But when they said, abide with us, that's an invitation.

15
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:43,800
As we've been here at an encounter, we are saying, abide with us.

16
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:51,800
We pray that we are attracting your manifest presence.

17
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:58,500
And as we prepare our hearts to break bread with you and with one another.

18
00:01:58,500 --> 00:02:11,200
Just like with those disciples, you would open our eyes with a renewed revelation of who you really are.

19
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:20,400
And even as Pastor Ayala had those prophetic words or words of knowledge.

20
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:29,700
I pray there would be a release of a corporate anointing in this very place.

21
00:02:29,700 --> 00:02:40,800
As our eyes would be open with a prophetic clarity that we are part of a prophetic generation.

22
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:52,000
Place in us, God, an expectation of what you're about to do in Jesus name.

23
00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:04,100
When I think about Luke chapter 24, it was after the resurrection that the disciples came across Jesus.

24
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:10,900
And some of them had been walking with Jesus for three and a half years.

25
00:03:10,900 --> 00:03:16,500
But they didn't recognize him when he came before them.

26
00:03:16,500 --> 00:03:25,100
And the main point was because they said to him, we were hoping that.

27
00:03:25,100 --> 00:03:27,000
In other words, they were talking about him.

28
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:32,800
They were reflecting on their time with him.

29
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:37,700
But they did not recognize him when he was in front of them.

30
00:03:37,700 --> 00:03:42,300
Sometimes we can gather in his name.

31
00:03:42,300 --> 00:03:44,600
We can worship him.

32
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:46,800
We can talk about him.

33
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,100
We can read about him.

34
00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:55,900
And we miss the moment of his glorious presence.

35
00:03:55,900 --> 00:04:02,700
Because we're hoping in our human capacity rather than and the thing that God wants to do spiritually in us.

36
00:04:02,700 --> 00:04:09,500
Because many times we are wishing within our human capacity and not in what God wants to do for us.

37
00:04:09,500 --> 00:04:12,300
So I just want to touch on communion.

38
00:04:12,300 --> 00:04:15,500
I want to briefly talk about communion.

39
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:17,700
But before we get into communion.

40
00:04:17,700 --> 00:04:19,300
But before we get into communion.

41
00:04:19,300 --> 00:04:22,200
We saw Luke 24 that when they had communion.

42
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:23,800
That when they had communion.

43
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:25,700
Their eyes were immediately opened.

44
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:30,600
And they had a renewed revelation of who Jesus really was.

45
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,100
And they had a new expectation of what was to come.

46
00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:36,100
And they had a new expectation of what was to come.

47
00:04:36,100 --> 00:04:42,900
They daily worshiped with expectation in the Upper Room.

48
00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:51,400
And we saw the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts chapter two.

49
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,200
And we saw the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Acts chapter two.

50
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:09,440
I believe God is raising up a prophetic generation of young people who may have been on a road

51
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:18,040
on a path in your life, but God is opening your eyes with a renewed revelation of his

52
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:30,960
glorious presence, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and together we will prepare the way for

53
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:39,400
an outpouring of the Holy Spirit and the coming of Jesus Christ.

54
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:47,880
We read through our scripture, and they only solve in pieces, but this is the generation

55
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:52,600
that God is placing a corporate anointing upon.

56
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:53,600
Let it be, Lord.

57
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,080
I've experienced various revivals around the world, or should I say transforming revivals.

58
00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:05,440
We've all been a part of revival services, but transforming revival is a part of the

59
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:20,520
world's revival services, but transforming revival has a rippling effect beyond the moment.

60
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:29,440
But I found there are some common things in all revivals I've seen.

61
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:36,200
There's a sense that we're nothing without his holy presence.

62
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:48,200
One time in one of the meetings that I was a part of, I was just sharing the importance

63
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:58,280
of giving up all of our impurities to the Lord, and I said, let's make kind of a spiritual

64
00:06:58,280 --> 00:07:07,400
brook of Kedron.

65
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:21,360
That particular place in scripture, many impurities and sinful things were placed there, and spiritually

66
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:27,400
what we need to do is give the Lord all of our impurities.

67
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:31,800
Or the things that capture our heart more than Jesus.

68
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:47,960
In 1 Corinthians chapter 10, the chapter before taking communion, the Apostle Paul breaks

69
00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:56,840
it down into five kinds of sin.

70
00:07:56,840 --> 00:08:13,200
The five sins that kept Israel out of their place of destiny for 40 years was lust, idolatry,

71
00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,480
sexual sins, tempting Christ.

72
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:21,960
That's to test the Lord.

73
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:34,240
And the fifth was a place of being complainers or murmurs or gossippers.

74
00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:42,040
And what Paul is saying here is that you can be baptized, come together in Jesus, worship

75
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:49,880
the Lord, but you'll never walk in the fullness of your prophetic destiny if you don't let

76
00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:57,960
God deal with these sins.

77
00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:06,480
In fact, in 1 Corinthians chapter 10, verse 21, he says, you cannot drink of the cup of

78
00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:14,680
the Lord and the cup of demons.

79
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:23,120
You can't partake of the Lord's table and the table of demons.

80
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:30,040
Pastor Ruben, 43 years you've been here in the church.

81
00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:35,600
And that's when I had a revelation that I could no longer serve the devil and God 43

82
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:43,480
years ago.

83
00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:45,800
I knew about the Lord.

84
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:50,440
I said I loved him, but I didn't live for him.

85
00:09:50,440 --> 00:10:01,360
And when my best friend was killed over a drug deal, and I was living with a girl professing

86
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:12,720
to be a Christian, running an exercise business, I went to my knees in my office.

87
00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:16,680
I said, Lord, I can't take this anymore.

88
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:24,240
He didn't speak audibly to me, but he spoke deeply to my heart.

89
00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:28,160
He said, don't call me Lord anymore.

90
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:32,760
Unless you're willing to live for me.

91
00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:42,000
You see, I was trying to drink of the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons.

92
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:51,440
I wanted to partake of the benefits of God, but I didn't want to serve God.

93
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,640
But when God heard my prayer, when I said, Lord, if you can do anything with someone

94
00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:08,080
like me, who has broken your heart and brought shame to your name, then I will give you the

95
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,000
right to do whatever you need to do to change my life.

96
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:24,280
I want to be available to you, no matter what you need to do, in Jesus' name.

97
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:34,440
I didn't know that it was going to change like that, but God knew that heart cry.

98
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:38,000
And literally the Lord has took me at my word 43 years ago.

99
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:44,800
And he allowed me to see revival all over the world.

100
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:59,200
But I've been longing for a generation, and I believe that this is that generation who

101
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:07,800
has been on a road, been on a journey, experienced disappointments, experienced the most terrible

102
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:08,800
disappointments.

103
00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:12,280
Maybe you've compromised your relationship with God.

104
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:24,360
Whatever road you've been on, before you were in your mother's womb, God prepared you for

105
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:29,480
a moment such as this.

106
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:40,320
It's time, it's your time, for a prophetic generation of visionaries who surrender completely

107
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:51,000
to the Lord and are being used by God to prepare the way for revival.

108
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:59,960
So now let's fast forward to 1 Corinthians chapter 11, verse 27 says, in preparation

109
00:12:59,960 --> 00:13:07,020
for communion, whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy

110
00:13:07,020 --> 00:13:20,360
manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

111
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:31,560
But let a man examine himself and so let him eat of the bread and the drink of the cup.

112
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:36,920
For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself,

113
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:48,920
not discerning the Lord's body.

114
00:13:48,920 --> 00:14:01,040
One of the things about taking communion together is to also discern the body of Christ.

115
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:05,120
How can we enter in corporate anointing if we have issues in our heart against our brothers

116
00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:12,840
and sisters?

117
00:14:12,840 --> 00:14:17,520
How can we enter that place of the holiness of God if we hold bitterness and wounds and

118
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:25,180
unforgiveness?

119
00:14:25,180 --> 00:14:29,720
Or like me, how can we have one foot at the table of the Lord and another foot at the

120
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:37,240
table of demons?

121
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:48,360
Scripture says that rebellion is the root of witchcraft.

122
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:56,600
The devil is trying to distract and destroy your prophetic calling.

123
00:14:56,600 --> 00:15:04,400
But those who know their God shall do powerful exploits.

124
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:12,080
Because when we surrender to God, the power of heaven and earth lives in us.

125
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:17,600
And the Holy Spirit of God works through us.

126
00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:27,040
So communion is also a form of authentic unity.

127
00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:32,000
Because when you've been in the presence of a holy, holy, holy God.

128
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,640
There's no division.

129
00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:47,520
We're undone in the presence of a holy God.

130
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:51,120
My life is not my own.

131
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:54,680
I'm in awe of you, God.

132
00:15:54,680 --> 00:16:01,200
Woe is me for I'm a man of unclean lips.

133
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:09,080
And as I behold your glory, I'm humbled in your presence.

134
00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:14,320
And that's when the Lord says, Stand up.

135
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:20,720
Don't let the burdens keep you from what I'm calling you to do.

136
00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:26,320
Because God himself cleanses us by his grace.

137
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:34,920
So as we prepare to partake of communion together, I'm praying for a supernatural outpouring

138
00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:42,880
of the presence of God.

139
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:52,860
Right where you're sitting, you're going to find deep conviction of the Holy Spirit.

140
00:16:52,860 --> 00:17:00,440
Some will find healing of your hurts and wounds.

141
00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:09,640
And some of you will actually experience literal physical healing.

142
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:21,620
Some of you, after this evening, will experience angelic visitations.

143
00:17:21,620 --> 00:17:26,760
Because you're not looking for the Prince of God there or there, but he shows up right

144
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:34,520
in your life.

145
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:41,360
How many believe that Jesus is still the same today as he was all those years ago?

146
00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:49,480
If there's something about that name, Jesus, or Jesus, and every knee shall bow and every

147
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:51,880
tongue confess that he is Lord.

148
00:17:51,880 --> 00:18:02,520
And even the demons and I'll have to honor who he is.

149
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:04,560
Jesus is the Savior.

150
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:07,000
He's your healer.

151
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:14,040
He's spiritually, physically, mentally, emotionally, financially, in every way.

152
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:19,800
He's your deliverer from all your insecurities, from all your fears.

153
00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,120
He's your deliverer from the lies of the devil.

154
00:18:24,120 --> 00:18:34,920
It doesn't matter what yesterday has been, but surrendering to his Lordship today, surrendering

155
00:18:34,920 --> 00:18:51,080
to his Lordship today determines your future and his calling upon your life.

156
00:18:51,080 --> 00:18:58,320
So before we take communion, let's reflect in our own hearts.

157
00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:02,680
Are there areas of things we need to throw into that brook, Kidron?

158
00:19:02,680 --> 00:19:14,560
The impurities of our heart, the sins of our lives, the things that people don't see, but

159
00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:15,560
he sees.

160
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:24,600
In one of the meetings that I had, it was in a living room of a bunch of people that

161
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:27,880
I had helped off the streets and gang members and drug addicts.

162
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:35,920
And I was sharing this story.

163
00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:44,320
And without me saying what they needed to call out, they began to go to their rooms

164
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:55,200
and cars and bring things out that I had no idea they had.

165
00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:05,080
Things that emphasize their lust, things that emphasize their idolatry, and they began to

166
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:09,080
throw it in the middle of the room.

167
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:16,480
Some began to stomp on those things and try to tear them up.

168
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:25,120
And the Lord began to move in such a way that from that meeting, revival broke out.

169
00:20:25,120 --> 00:20:32,600
That still lasts today in rippling effects.

170
00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:39,640
There was another gathering of young people in the same neighborhood.

171
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:47,080
Years after that moment, and the Holy Spirit moved, people came from all over Texas to

172
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:51,440
come to these meetings.

173
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:58,960
And a person in that meeting said, wait a minute, that's the apartment where a revival

174
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:06,200
broke loose all those years ago.

175
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:12,320
And we are the benefits of that revival.

176
00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:15,520
God wants to do that in you.

177
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,120
God wants to do that through you.

178
00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:20,120
That's just one.

179
00:21:20,120 --> 00:21:26,640
I've seen God do it in Fiji, in Uganda, in Botswana, in Australia, in Vietnam, all over

180
00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:27,640
the world.

181
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:42,560
In human impossibility, in Cali, Colombia, during all the major drug cartels, and the

182
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,640
church came together in unity.

183
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:52,840
They began to worship together and say, God, we don't have the human capacity to change

184
00:21:52,840 --> 00:22:02,200
what's happening, but we serve a supernatural God.

185
00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:08,280
And God began to move in that part of the country.

186
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:15,880
And there's moves of God there still today, all these years later.

187
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:24,440
What God has done in the past is nothing compared to what he wants to do in you.

188
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:34,320
And our generation wants to give you strength to walk into your destiny.

189
00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:37,760
But it starts with honesty.

190
00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:44,600
In a moment, now I've done this in front of 5,000 pastors.

191
00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:53,240
I've done this in crusades with 30,000 people in a Muslim country.

192
00:22:53,240 --> 00:23:04,040
When I'm about to say, I never allow them to close their eyes, I don't play music, because

193
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:10,760
this is a moment to get honest with God.

194
00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:18,480
And I say, if there is lust in your life, anything in your life that masters your affections

195
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:33,320
more than Jesus, any idolatry in your heart, sexual sins, or where you've been putting

196
00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:38,000
Jesus to the test by saying you're a Christian, but you live at the table of demons.

197
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:49,360
Or you've been a person who's always complaining and backbiting and gossiping.

198
00:23:49,360 --> 00:24:05,680
It keeps us from walking in the place God wants for us.

199
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:15,600
So on the count of three, if there are things in your heart, things in your life that are

200
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:23,680
impure, or things that you've been harboring in your heart, or where you've allowed other

201
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:34,120
things to become gods in your life more than Jesus, whatever sin might be in our lives,

202
00:24:34,120 --> 00:24:42,240
on the count of three, we're saying, I want to be what God wants me to be, and I don't

203
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:51,000
want the anchor of sin in my life that keeps me from my destiny.

204
00:24:51,000 --> 00:25:00,340
It doesn't matter what anybody thinks around you, and that's why I don't ever bow our heads.

205
00:25:00,340 --> 00:25:08,520
Because if we can't be honest with each other in the presence of God, then we can close

206
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:17,720
our eyes and raise our hands, but we can leave here the same as when we came.

207
00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:23,360
But this generation says, we don't want to be like the world.

208
00:25:23,360 --> 00:25:27,360
I don't want the sins of my life to keep me from being what God wants me to be.

209
00:25:27,360 --> 00:25:31,320
I don't want the sins of the world to keep me from being anchored to them.

210
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:36,920
So on the count of three, if there are things in your life that are not pleasing to God,

211
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:44,760
then I want you to be honest, and just stand up.

212
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,320
One, two, three.

213
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,720
Thank you for your honesty.

214
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:54,120
That is a sign of true revival.

215
00:25:54,120 --> 00:26:04,840
Put your hand on your heart and say this louder than you would do at a sporting event.

216
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:14,920
Lord Jesus, forgive me of my sins and the things I've done that have brought shame to

217
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:17,440
your name.

218
00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:28,320
Right now by faith, I give you the right to do whatever you need to do to change my mind,

219
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,760
change my heart, change my life.

220
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:35,080
There is none but you, Jesus.

221
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,520
You are the King of Kings.

222
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,920
You are the Lord of Lords.

223
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,360
You are my savior.

224
00:26:42,360 --> 00:26:49,120
I give you the right to help me to walk into your purposes and to walk in the prophetic

225
00:26:49,120 --> 00:26:52,000
destiny you have for me.

226
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,800
I release out of my spirit any impurities.

227
00:26:56,800 --> 00:27:00,880
I pray for your grace to change me.

228
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:09,300
And now, Lord, I make myself available to you to be what you called me to be.

229
00:27:09,300 --> 00:27:19,200
Can I receive into my spirit forgiveness of sins and a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit

230
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:26,640
and the calling of God to change my generation in Jesus' name?

231
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:33,480
Now, Father, I'm asking you personally to do what only you can do in this place.

232
00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:37,960
We have hungry and thirsty hearts of this generation here tonight, and they are joining

233
00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:43,440
in with an army of volunteers, according to your word, to be part of a prophetic generation

234
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:48,400
preparing the way for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in our day.

235
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,840
Now, look at me.

236
00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:55,000
Right now, God's about to do some significant things in your life.

237
00:27:55,000 --> 00:28:00,440
I pray that he will give you a renewed revelation of his presence, and you'll find even tomorrow

238
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:01,840
things are different.

239
00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:05,800
The weights that have kept you back are going to be taken off so you can move in freedom

240
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:07,120
for what he has for you.

241
00:28:07,120 --> 00:28:11,320
But I want to speak of word of encouragement and say, thus saith the Lord, just like the

242
00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,520
priest said to Hannah in her desperation.

243
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,620
I'm talking about the priest of the Lord in the Old Testament.

244
00:28:17,620 --> 00:28:22,360
And out of Hannah's desperation in the house of the Lord, he said, go in peace and may

245
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:25,680
the God of Israel give you the petitions of your heart.

246
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:30,360
But tonight, I'm going to prophesy into your spirit in the name of Jesus.

247
00:28:30,360 --> 00:28:32,120
I'm going to say it three times.

248
00:28:32,120 --> 00:28:37,840
I'm going to say in the name of Jesus, go in peace and may the Lord Jesus Christ give

249
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,160
you the desires of your heart.

250
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:44,000
I'm going to say it three times because a three-fold cord can't be easily broken.

251
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:49,880
If you have a need, I want you to receive with expectation what God's about to do.

252
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,760
Receive with expectation of what God's about to do.

253
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:58,000
Thus saith the Lord, go in peace and may the Lord Jesus Christ grant you the petitions

254
00:28:58,000 --> 00:28:59,000
of your heart.

255
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:03,760
And again I say to you, go in peace and may the Lord Jesus Christ give you the desires

256
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:04,760
of your heart.

257
00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:09,960
And again I say to you, go in peace and may the Lord Jesus Christ give you the desires

258
00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:10,960
of your heart.

259
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,360
Jesus, you heard our heart cry.

260
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:14,280
You heard our declaration.

261
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:17,320
Come Lord Jesus for the spirit the bride say come.

262
00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:19,160
We invite your presence.

263
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,440
Abide in us.

264
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:21,440
Commune with us.

265
00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:26,160
Give us a renewed revelation of the power and the work of the cross.

266
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:28,040
Do you receive a miracle from God?

267
00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:34,600
Receive with expectation for what God is going to do and join with the army of the prophetic

268
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,480
generation that God has called you into.

269
00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,200
In the name of Jesus Christ.
