Reverend Ben Cooper's Podcast
Unstoppable Faith - (#1026 - Elim)
Dive into a dynamic discussion that centres around the powerful message found in John 8:32, "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." This episode unpacks the immense potential of belief—how faith can pave the way for miracles and transformation in our lives. We explore what it means to be truly free through the teachings of Jesus Christ, emphasising the necessity of being born again and a relationship with God.
Join us as we discuss the importance of holding tight to scriptural truths and how they guide us through our daily challenges. We address the obstacles that can hinder our faith, from doubt to fear, and how embracing a radical belief can propel us beyond our comfort zones. Throughout the episode, listeners will be inspired through real-life testimonies of miraculous breakthroughs, reminding them of the power that comes from unwavering faith in God.
This heartfelt conversation encourages listeners not only to seek personal miracles but also to become active participants in revealing God's Kingdom on Earth. The essence of being a disciple of Christ is revisited, highlighting that it's not merely about attending church but transforming lives through action rooted in belief.
As we draw near to the spirit of fellowship and community, remember that we are all called to spread hope and freedom. We invite you to listen, reflect, and engage with your own journey of faith. Experience the depth and richness of God’s word, and let's believe for new miracles together! Don't forget to share this episode and connect with others on this radical journey of faith.

Speaker 2:We're here, it's us. God bless every one of you, wherever you are across the world at this moment in time. We thank you so much for joining us in this radio ministry and as you're live streaming with us right now. In the mighty name of jesus christ. We are just going to apologize for a bit of a blurriness on the visuals tonight, but it's not about visuals. It it's about the Word of God. So, wherever you are, we thank you so much that you are gathering with us for this live stream across the globe tonight. It's absolutely scary to think that there are people watching us on the other side of the world. You know, I think I see yesterday it was about 78 countries we was in and over 1,030 cities around the world. It's quite scary. We're going to jump straight into the new testament. We can jump straight into the gospel of john, chapter 8 john, chapter 8 and we're going to pick up in verse 1. We'll read, sorry, verse 31. We'll start in verse 31, but the prime text that we're in tonight is verse 32. So, wherever you are across the world, we thank you for joining us in the mighty name of j Christ, god is with you.
Speaker 2:Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in the power of the word of God? Do you believe you know? Believe that you will see the dead raised. Believe that you will see the lame walking. Believe that you will hear the deaf hearing. Believe that you will see the blind seeing. Believe for those phenomenal miracles in your life, believe that there is a serious turnaround in your life. Believe that the fire of God is over you. You know that great prophet Ezekiel. You know that great prophet Ezekiel, that great prophet Elijah. When you look at those two characters, two very obscured characters, and I love them, two characters, but what I love about that prayer of Elijah when he was up the mountain, you know Elijah and Ezekiel and many other characters in the word of God. I think that we are living in a time right now, where we've got to literally just go by faith and we've got to believe that we're going to see the dead rays. We've got to believe that we're going to see the blind seeing. We've got to believe that we're going to see the dead rays. We've got to believe that we're going to see the blind seeing. We've got to believe that we're going to see the lame walking. We've got to believe for the impossible.
Speaker 2:Wherever you are situated across the world tonight, grab yourself a Bible, jump straight into the Word of God with us. Let's believe, let's be radical, crazy Christians for Jesus Christ. You know, let's tell the world that we love Jesus, tell your culture, tell your culture, tell your society, tell those on social media that I love Jesus Christ, that I'm a radical, braggadocious brother or sister for Christ Jesus. And all things are possible to those who believe. And as we turn into this scripture, you know, let's pray tonight that God, will you let it rain? What's he going on about? Will you let it rain? I'm not going on about. Will you let it rain? I'm not referring to the rain that falls out of heaven, the wet stuff I'm referring to. Lord, will you let it rain? Miracles Do you need miracles in your family? Do you need miracles in your life, in your education, in your workspace? Whatever you are requiring tonight, believe, believe and see that it is happening now.
Speaker 2:Very quickly, if you turn to hebrews 11, verse 1, the bible says uh, it talks about faith. Now faith. Now. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Now, faith is critical and as we turn into the gospel of john, chapter 8, verse 31 and 32, but the prime text that we're in, you know, however you walk in life and however you look at life, whatever your focus is on life, it's got to be Jesus. Jesus Christ has to be at the forefront above anything else in your life, Because when you put Christ first, you know all things are possible to those who believe. When Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, let me tell you this right now that the glory of God is over you, that you are born again, that you are spirit filled.
Speaker 2:And you know what Alex showed me saying tonight on the, just on the whatever he was showing me on one of the news channels that the Pope. You know we've got to pray for the Pope, you know, because that man, if that man isn't saved, where's he going? He's going to hell. It's not about it doesn't matter if he's the head of the Catholic Church, it's about John 3.3. You must be born again. It is critical being born again. It is really really important that we must be born again. It doesn't matter if he is the Pope, it doesn't matter. If he's the Archbishop, it doesn't matter. And if you are not born again, hell is getting ready for you. You know the Pope could be in serious trouble If he's not born again. Spirit-filled brother in Christ, hell is waiting for the Pope. It is that simple, and anyone you know. The Pope is in a bit of a bad way tonight and we pray that God will save him. Not for the healing, because healing is only for a few years. What we need is salvation. Salvation is for eternity. Brothers and sisters, let's get straight into the scriptures. You've got to be born again. It is that simple.
Speaker 2:Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in the power of the word of God? Do you believe that the hand of God is over your life? Do you believe in the truth? You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Do you believe in the truth? You will know the truth and the truth will set you free.
Speaker 2:Do you believe that the dead can be raised? That is a rhetorical question. That is a question that I'm asking myself, pastor Ben. Do you believe that the dead can be raised? Yes, god. Pastor Ben, do you believe that the blind can see? Yes, god. Do you believe that the lame can walk? Yes, god. Do you believe that God can do anything he wants to do? Yes, god. Do you believe that the lamb can walk? Yes, god. Do you believe that God can do anything he wants to do? Yes, god, I believe your word is an absolute.
Speaker 2:Do we believe that God's word is an absolute and it is critical? It is the end, it is the first, it is the last. Do you believe in the power of the word of God? The Bible says you must be born again. I'm sorry to bring our little friend up again from the Vatican, but if you are not born again, it is that simple. That's all Jesus says. You know, you must be born again. Now, this is where we're at tonight, when you're looking at the scriptures, and I would really encourage you tonight, wherever you are, to grab yourself a Bible, sit back and relax, grab yourself a cup of coffee, you know, get yourself a bit of grape juice, a bit of wine juice and a bit of bread that represents the body of Christ as we break bread in a little while. But we're going to go straight into the scripture. It is critical.
Speaker 2:Right now, the UK is in a pivotal position. We are sitting on a razor's blade. We are sitting on that point, that sharp end. You know, we've got to make sure that this nation belongs to Jesus. We've got to make sure it doesn't matter if I go to church, it doesn't matter what is going on in ministry. That is not to do with the kingdom of God. Look at the poor old fellow, the Pope. You know, if that man isn't saved, if that man isn't blood washed, if that man, that leader of that Catholicism, you know, and you've got to look at that movement, you've got to look at that movement, if that man is not saved, the Pope is destined for hell. If he is born again, spirit filled, blessed and highly favoured, if his name is stamped in the Lamb's book of life, he's on his way to glory. This is the criteria that Jesus says you must be born again.
Speaker 2:And I'm going to ask every one of us a question tonight. Do you believe that God created the heavens and the earth? Do you believe that he is the coming king? Do you believe that the word of God, from Genesis to Revelation, is an absolute? Do you believe in the truth? Do you believe in the word of God, the God that we serve? He is the king of kings and the Lord of lords. Do you believe that all those that trust in God can do anything through him? Do you believe? You know, ask your friends, just ask yourself tonight. I believe in miracles. I believe in miracles. When was the last time we actually see a miracle, a real, outright miracle? You know, we need to ask god, father, I want to see miracles and this is what this scripture is about.
Speaker 2:Verse 31 to the jews who had believed him, jesus said if you hold on to my teachings, you are really my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. So verse 31 lays out a foundation. Very simply, to the Jews who had believed, we get that. We understand that as we unpack it, as we do a bit of an expository, sermonizing, just going a little bit deeper. To the Jews who had believed, jesus said if you hold on to my teaching, see, if you hold on to the word of God, you will see the kingdom of God.
Speaker 2:We cannot come outside of the word, from Genesis to Revelation, whether we understand it or whether we don't. It's not for us to worry about understanding, because understanding is of the natural realm. You know, we will never be able to understand the Word of God because it is spiritual. The Word of God is beyond this perception, the way we perceive, the way we live. You know, the Word of God is far above this natural, physical realm in which we live. The Word of God is faith. The Word of God is hope. The Word of God is the Word of God. So what we've got to do is find ourselves in the position of not of a natural way of living, because if I continue to live my life by the natural way, I'm not going by faith, I'm not going by hope, I'm going by what I perceive, what is in front of me, my natural ability as a human being. I've got to live my life completely by faith. Now, that is a call on its own.
Speaker 2:But when you look at this scripture, the Bible is extremely clear. If you hold on to my teachings, what is Jesus referring to? What are the teachings of Christ? The teachings of Christ is the Old Testament, is the New Testament, is the new and the old, the fabric of the word of God, from Genesis, from the first moment that God said let there be light, from that until the end of the book of Revelations. That is the word, that is the teachings of Jesus Christ. He says if you hold on to my teachings, if you hold on to the word and don't swerve from the left nor the right, what does it mean if I hold on to the word and don't swerve from the left nor the right? What does it mean if I hold on to the word of God? What does it say you really are my disciples. It doesn't talk about being churchgoers. It doesn't talk about being pastors and leaders and brothers and deacons and this and that. It doesn't tell us about the mechanics of church. It tells us about being disciples, because that is the prime understanding that I should have that I am and that you are a disciple of Christ.
Speaker 2:What is a disciple of Christ? A disciple of Christ is someone that follows, that has been discipled, that has changed from faith to faith, from glory to glory. A disciple is someone that follows the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Jesus says to the disciples on the shoreline of Galilee drop your nets, come and follow me. Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in miracles, god, I believe in miracles. Do you believe in the word of God? Do you trust me? I really believe God is saying to us tonight. Do you trust me? Yes, god, do you really trust me? Yes, god, do you really trust me? Yes, god, do you really trust me? Yes, lord, and as he said to Peter, jump out of the boat. Are you prepared to jump out of the boat? Are you prepared? If you use the boat, the analogy of Peter, and the boat on the storm on the lake, if you take that analogy and you use that as an understanding, right, god, I'm about to leap. Are you prepared to take a leap of faith? Are you prepared to step outside the boundaries of culture, of life? Are you prepared to step out of the skin? You're walking and say God, right now, I'm going to walk by faith, because the Bible says if you know the truth, the truth will set you free, a very interesting word that the scripture has brought into the equation of the text that we're in. It says and the truth will set you free.
Speaker 2:What is freedom? We always equate money to bring us freedom. Well, it doesn't. We always equate notoriety to bring us freedom. You know, when you look at the word of God, what is freedom?
Speaker 2:Freedom is believing in miracles. Freedom is trusting in God. Freedom is walking by faith and not having any chains of adversity. Do you want the chains of adversity broken? Do you want the chains of history broken? Do you want the umbilical cord? I will use that terminology, you know. We need to ask God that he will cut the umbilical cord to history. We need to say, god, I need you to cut that. I need you to cut that chain, lord, I need you to deal with that in my life, right now, in the name of Jesus Christ. Lord, I need these chains broken, lord, I need this umbilical cord cut. Lord, I need freedom. You know freedom is so powerful. Freedom will cost you everything, but doesn't cost you everything.
Speaker 2:Now, what do you mean? What do you mean? Freedom means surrender. Surrender is not what Catholicism can do. The Church of England can't surrender because when you are religious, you are caught in the mechanisms and you are caught in the process of religion. But if you are born again, spirit filled, blessed and highly favoured, if you believe in miracles, you're free. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. When you look at this, what is the truth? The Bible is the truth.
Speaker 2:Let us go back to the text, verse 31. It says to the text, verse 31. It says to the jews who had believed him, jesus said if you hold on to my teachings, what are the teachings? Let's remind ourselves the word of god, the word of god is the teachings. The word of god, from genesis to revelation, is the word, is the teachings of jesus christ. Then we go. Well, hang on, rev. You got that a little bit wrong, because Jesus Christ wasn't actually on the earth until Mary pushed him out of that place. You know he wasn't on. Well, let me tell you this Jesus Christ was the first and the last.
Speaker 2:Jesus Christ is the Old Testament. Jesus Christ is Genesis, revelations, deuteronomy. Jesus Christ is Matthew, mark, luke and John. Jesus Christ is the entirety of the Word of God. Jesus Christ was before the very foundation of the world. Jesus Christ is the living Word. Jesus Christ is the great I Am. Jesus Christ is your Lord and your Redeemer. Jesus Christ is the creator of heaven and earth. Jesus Christ is the bridge, the bridge from God to eternity. Jesus Christ is the bridge that we require. So when you look at these scriptures, it says to the Jews who had believed him, jesus said if you hold on to my teachings, you really are my disciples. Then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. You really are my disciples, then you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. It is not church that will set you free. It is not me, it is not the pastors, it is not the leadership, it is not Elim that will set you free. It is not the mechanics of religion that will set you free. It is Jesus Christ. Who is this Jesus Christ?
Speaker 2:If you have a Bible in front of you tonight, turn to the Gospel of John, chapter 1. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God. And he was with God in the beginning. And the Bible says in the Gospel of John, chapter 1, verse 14, I believe and the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. It is the Word of God.
Speaker 2:If you have a Bible, turn to Psalms 119, 105. Your word is a lamp unto my feet, a light for my path. Turn to Psalm 23. The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul. You know he guides me. The word guides you. You know.
Speaker 2:The Bible says the word of God in Psalm 23,. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me, your rod and your staff. They comfort me. You prepare a table. Come on, the devil is a liar. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. Come on, sister and brother, you're not broke. You're rich in Christ. You know, you are blessed. You are not unwell. You are healed in the name of Jesus Christ. You are not living in fear. You are living in freedom.
Speaker 2:But what we do is we allow the world to get us to live in our history. The world likes us to live in our history, what the world thinks and what the world labels us. But do you know who you are in Christ? Do you really know? Have you found your true identity in the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords? There is nothing more powerful than a man or a woman finding out who they are in Jesus Christ and then realizing that the devil is a liar Sickness.
Speaker 2:Go. At the name of Jesus. Chains be broken. At the name of Jesus, fear go. You know when was the last time? Have you ever seen the dead be raised in the name of Jesus? I can imagine.
Speaker 2:Tonight all the Christians are going to be down the cemetery praying over every grave tonight. But you know what I mean, lord. We want to see the dead raised in the name of Jesus. We want to see the sick healed. We want to see the lame walking. We want to see the blind seeing. We want to hear that the deaf are hearing in the name of Jesus.
Speaker 2:You know, the Bible says speak. The word of God is all about speech. It's not about visualization. The church and everything we do in this world is about visualization. When you look at church, you're watching church. Right now you're listening to this live stream broadcast, but the word of God never had no cameras.
Speaker 2:What is the word of God? The word of God is word, the rhema word, the spoken word, and what I got to do is I got to put the word of God to flight. The Bible says out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water. What are rivers of living water? Rivers of living water are, very simply, a terminology that the Bible uses Out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water. What does it mean? Words that will take you to a place that you can never get to. Words that will destroy the work of Goliath. Words that will destroy the work of all the enemies, of all the pharaohs, of all the kings. Words are so powerful. Start speaking over your life.
Speaker 2:Father. In the name of Jesus, this cancer has gone. Father, in the name of Jesus, I'm healed right now. Father, in the name of Jesus, lord, the chains of adversity are broken. Lord. In the name of Jesus, lord, this umbilical cord is cut. Lord, to this toxic family. In the name of Jesus, father, this umbilical cord is cut to these toxic people. Lord, this umbilical cord is cut. Lord, to sickness and disease. Lord, this umbilical cord is cut in the name of Jesus, to all those dogs around me.
Speaker 2:In the name of Jesus Christ, because I'm blessed and highly favoured, I'm wonderfully and I'm fearfully made simply because the word tells me so, not because of my own autonomy and my own strength and my own capabilities and my own physical understanding about the world. I am strong because when I am weak, then he is. You know, oh God, the word of God. Let's get back in the word of God. And it says there you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Jesus Christ is the truth. Where did freedom come? Where did freedom come from? Freedom came from the cross of Calvary. You know, when you look at the crucifixion. Freedom came when Jesus said it is finished. Because the Bible says I am the way, the truth finished. Because the Bible says I am the way, the truth, the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Speaker 2:Are you hungry tonight? Are you thirsty tonight? Jesus says come to me, all of you that are weary and heavy, and I will give you rest. Let me tell you I won't give you rest. This ministry of this church won't give you rest. Ealing won't give you rest. Wherever you go to church won't give you rest. Church won't give you rest. It will give you euphoria, it will give you a feel-good vibe. But let me tell you this Jesus Christ will give you the ultimate rest that you need in your life. The Word of God will take you to a place that you never thought you'd get to. The Word of God will break down chains. The Word of God will tear down walls. The word of God will tear down walls. The word of God will destroy the work of the enemy. The devil is a liar. Have you got devils in your life trying to convince you that you're not who you think you are. Have you had people in your life trying to tear you down, wear you out, exhaust you? Are you exhausted? Are you weary? Are you tired? God is calling you to rest tonight. God is calling you to freedom. God is calling you because you are born again, spirit-filled, blessed and highly favoured, wonderfully and fearfully made. And the power of God is in your home tonight. The power of God is with you when you're commuting. The power of God is with you wherever you are, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2:Did you believe in miracles? Yes, lord. Do you believe in the fundamental points of Christianity? Yes, lord. Do you believe that God created the heavens and the earth? Yes, god. Do you believe in the power of the blood of Jesus? Do you believe in the power of the blood of Jesus? Yes, god. Do you believe in the cup, the redemption cup? Yes, lord. Do you believe in the cup, the redemption cup? Yes, lord. Do you believe that this bread symbolizes the body of Christ? Yes, god, I believe in miracles. Do you know what? When was the last time we see a miracle in the church? When was the last time we have euphoria? We have dark room church, we have cameras, we have lights.
Speaker 2:You know many of us go to church on a Sunday and we watch a West End show being performed and beamed around the world. There are many actors behind the pulpits. There are many actors behind the guitar. There are many actors you know singing. You know I want to. I want to feel the power of God on church. I don't want to feel the euphoria of the atmosphere. I want to feel the power of the Holy Ghost. I want to feel the power of the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. I'm not interested in what's happening to the left and the right. I want to know what God's going to do for me. Oh, if I can be jealous, I want to be jealous with my Jesus. If I can be jealous, I want to be jealous with the King because, lord, I want you to show up now on my watch. Lord, I need miracles. Lord, bones have got to be strengthened. Lord, financial freedom has got to come.
Speaker 2:You know it's very interesting what the government does. It's very interesting what the government does. The government puts us in a chain. The government puts us in an area of slavery. You know I've mentioned this many times before. You know you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. You know, it isn't money that will set you free, it isn't that great job that will set you free, it isn't your education that will set you free, it isn't the people that you know on this earth that will set you free.
Speaker 2:It is only Jesus and it is only Christ, and it is only Holy Spirit and it is only the God of Israel. It is Yahweh, it is Jehovah Jireh, jehovah Nissi, jehovah Shalom. It is the power of the Word of God, it is the power of the redeeming King, it is the power of the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And I pray tonight that you will find freedom in the voice of God. I pray that you will find freedom in the voice of God. I pray that you will find freedom in the word of God. I pray that you will look at John 8, 32, and it says you will know the truth. How do I know this truth? It says if you hold onto my teachings verse 31, if you hold onto my teachings, you really are my disciples. Then you will know the truth. You can only know the truth. What is the truth? The truth is John 3.3. You must be born again.
Speaker 2:Now let me come back to our little friend in the Vatican right now. If that Pope dies tonight, I'm sorry. Sir Pope, john, whatever your name is, let's just use him as an analogy. Let's just use him as an example. If the Pope was to die and he is not born again, he is going to hell. It doesn't matter if he is the head of whatever he wants to call it. If you are not born again, if any human being is not born again, we are going to the lake, the fiery furnace. We will be going to the lake of sulfur. It is so hot, it is beyond human understanding.
Speaker 2:But if you are born again, if you are spirit filled, if you are following Jesus Christ, when you look at the Church of England, you look at Catholicism, you look at the evangelical movements, you look at the Pentecostal movements We've got to be extremely careful that we don't get caught in a movement. We can't get caught in a movement, a mechanical movement. We've got to be found in the kingdom of God. If Jesus wanted us to be found in the mechanisms of church, he would have said you will know the church and the church will give you freedom. He doesn't say that you will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Jesus says I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. It is freedom, and freedom can only be found in Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2:Who is this Jesus? Who is this king? He is the great I am. He is the savior of the world. He is the rock of ages, he is the lily of the valley, he is Genesis, he is revelation. He is the bright morning star. He is the heaven. He is the king. He is everything the Bible says. He's omnipresent, he's omnipotent. He is the king. He is everything the Bible says. He's omnipresent, he's omnipotent. He's in all, he's about all. He's before time. He created time itself. Every grain of sand across this world, god spoke it into existence. Every liter, every liter of water around the world. He spoke into being every tree, every leaf, every animal, every fish, every star, every, every area of life. He spoke into existence. Did you believe that? Did you believe that the king spoke into existence? Do you believe that he spoke the word of god? Do you believe that he is the king of Kings and the Lord of Lords? I pray that, wherever you are tonight, you will feel the power of the Holy Ghost, that you will feel the power of the Redeemer, that you will feel the power of the living word, and tonight will be a night of revelational knowledge. You know, we cannot live our lives on education. Education in this nation is not worth a fag butt. Education isn't worth the paper it's written on, because education is not taking anyone anywhere. Education keeps you at such a low level. But when you get revelation oh my lordy doldy when you get revelation, when God reveals God's word to you, when the word of God is revealed to you, when the word of God is given to you, when the word of God is in you, when the word of God comes alive in your spirit, it's not about education, it's not about anything amongst the world. It is about having revelation, revelation. I don't want education, because education is of a system. The bible doesn't talk about education. The only place that you'll find in a few parts it talks, very interestingly, about education. It talks about education in a few places. Now, the greatest place that it talks about education is Nicodemus and Jesus. When you think about Nicodemus and Jesus, jesus said to him Nicodemus, you are Israel's teacher and you don't know. Isn't that interesting, nicodemus, you are Israel's teacher. He was highly educated, he was highly esteemed, he was a person that was really educated, but he could not enter and he could not see the kingdom of God unless you're born again. You've got to be born again. Jesus says you must be born again, nicodemus. The Bible is extremely clear. When you become born again, nicodemus, the bible is extremely clear. When you become born again, when you, when you start to believe in jesus christ as your lord and savior, when you, your heart starts to realize the truth, you will start to realize that the truth will set you free. Do you need freedom tonight? Do you need freedom from adversity? Do you need freedom from history? Do you need freedom from now? Do you need freedom from fear? Do you need freedom from sickness? Do you need freedom from history? Do you need freedom from now? Do you need freedom from fear? Do you need freedom from sickness? Do you need freedom from disease? What do you need freedom from tonight? Because it's possible, because the Bible says all things are possible to those who believe.
Speaker 2:Do you believe? Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe in the power of the word of God? Do you believe in the arm of God. Do you believe in the power of the word of God? Do you believe in the arm of God? Do you believe in the power of the written word of God? Yes, lord, because the word is life.
Speaker 2:You know, I referenced Psalm 119, 105 earlier. Your word is, your word is a lamp unto my path, a light unto my path, a light. Your word is, your word is a lamp unto my path, a light for my feet. Your word is a light for my path. It is the word of God that will lead us. It is the word of God that will carry us. It is the word of God that will smash the devil's work. It is the word of God that will break every chain of adversity. It is the word of God that will set us free. It is the word of God that will give us hope. It is the word of God that will destroy the devil's work. It is the word of God Hang on a minute, let's just hold back. It is the word of God that has destroyed the devil's work, because when Jesus Christ was on the cross of Calvary, the Bible says that Jesus disarmed the prince of powers and Jesus Christ disarmed the government forces because of the blood of Jesus. So actually, the devil's a rascal. The devil has been beaten already. So remind yourself. Hang on a minute.
Speaker 2:The Bible says you know under my feet, get under my feet. Actually, you are under my feet. You are not above. I am above and not beneath. I am the head and not the towel. I am a child of the living God. The devil is under thy feet.
Speaker 2:The Bible says that he's given us authority and he's given us powers and he's given us the capabilities, through the word of God, to actually say yes, god, do you want to see miracles? Do you need freedom tonight? You won't find freedom in church. You won't find freedom in religion. You won't find it in ministry. You won't find it in any human being. You will find freedom in Jesus Christ because he says I am human being. You will find freedom in jesus christ because he says I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me. I am the truth and the truth will set you free. This is why we have so many screwed up people in church. This is why we have so many people just completely turned over by religion, because the church isn't preaching the truth. When you preach the truth. When the truth is taught, freedom comes. This is why religion screws you over. This is why religion tears you down. This is why these mega ministries hold you, because they have got you not in truth, they have got you in a lie. Because all these mega ministries want what do they want?
Speaker 2:What was the message on church, in your church, on Sunday? What was the message? Money, prosperity. What was the message? Was it the message of truth? Was it the message of the blood of Jesus? Was it the message of the cross of Calvary? What was the message? Was it a message of truth? Was it the message of the blood of Jesus? Was it the message of the cross of Calvary? What was the message? Was it a message of networking? Was it a message from man? Was it a message of the word of God?
Speaker 2:We need the word. Why do we need the word? In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God. He was with God in the beginning. So the word is God, god is the word.
Speaker 2:So, when you look at the word, what is it the word? The word is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ tells us in the scripture that I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me. Do you want healing? It is Jesus. Do you want to see the glory of God? It is Jesus. Do you want to see miracles falling at your feet? It is Jesus. Do you want it to reign in your life? Blessing upon blessing, miracle after miracle, holy Spirit after Holy Spirit. Do you want to see the power of God in your life? Do you want to see the redeeming King? Do you want to see the power of the Holy Spirit? When was the last time Seriously, brothers and sisters, when was the last time we see an absolute move of the Holy Spirit? Man is always orchestrating emotions. Church is based on emotions. Church is based on a feel-good factor. When was the last time we felt the power of the Holy Spirit? Now, the Holy Spirit isn't about emotions. The Holy Spirit is about revelation. The Word of God is about revelation.
Speaker 2:Religion will give you a happy, clappy feeling. Oh, hallelujah, praise the Lord, jesus Christ. Let's have a latte and a croissant in the name of Jesus. But the Holy Spirit will take you to a place. Where will it take me to? It will take me to a place of recognizing the holiness of God, the holiness of God. Holy. Holy is the Lord most worthy of all praise. Do we actually realize that God is so holy? God is so powerful, he's sovereign and his ways are just.
Speaker 2:When was the last time we felt the power of the Holy Spirit? And I'm not talking about a happy feeling, happy clappy, hallelujah, jesus. I'm talking about when was the last time we felt the power of the Holy Spirit, when it made us shake, when it made us shout in the name of Jesus. When was the last time we heard a sermon that really gave us such encouragement I can do all things through Christ. When was the last time we heard a sermon on the blood of Jesus? When was the last time we heard a preacher preach out the gospel of Jesus Christ beyond human understanding? When was the last time we heard revelational knowledge coming through the word of God? You know, the church in the UK is in need of the Holy Spirit. The church in the UK is in need of the Holy Spirit. The church in the UK is in need not of revival but persecution, because what persecution does? Persecution takes us to Jesus Christ. Man is always talking about revival, because the revival that man is referring to is a happy feeling.
Speaker 2:But when you get a revelation from God, when you get the Holy Spirit being revealed to you, when you get the glory and the power and the word of God in your spirit, suddenly you become unstoppable, not because of your autonomy, your physicality, but because you realize the power of the word. When you've got the power of the word, but because you realize the power of the word. When you've got the power of the word, all things are possible to those who believe. What is belief? Belief is faith. What is faith? Believing in this God that says all things are possible? Sister and brother, do not doubt yourself, do not doubt me, because I will deliver, I will bring into existence. Do we realize that we serve a God that calls the things that are not as though they are? Do we realize that we follow a king that is unstoppable? Do you realize that you follow and you are part of a kingdom that is unstoppable? Do you want to belong to religion? Because religion is going to hell, but the kingdom is freedom. The kingdom is freedom and there's only one person that is in charge of the kingdom, and it's not our little friend in the Vatican that's struggling for air tonight. It's not the leader of Elim, it's not the leader of AOG, it's not the pastors. Do you want to follow Jesus? If you follow Jesus Christ, you will be known as this a radical Bible-believing believer. Do you know how the disciples died? Do you know that one of the disciples was skinned alive? Do you know that one of the disciples lost his head? Do you know that one of the disciples was crucified? Do you realize that they stoned the disciples? How far will I go for Jesus? How far will I go for Jesus?
Speaker 2:Brothers and sisters, we're coming to the table. We're about to rock and roll, we're about to get right on it. We're about to get right to the table. Wherever you are, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, wherever you are across the world, we want to encourage you to grab yourself some bread right now. There is no power in this bread, in the physical bread itself. There is power in the body of Christ. There is no power in this cup itself, but there is power in the blood of Jesus, what it symbolizes. So, brothers and sisters, we're at the table right now. Let's break bread in the mighty name of Jesus. Will you come to the table with us tonight? Will you give everything to Jesus. Jesus Christ is inviting every one of us. Jesus Christ is inviting every one of us, wherever you are across the globe. Let's get to Jesus. Let's invite Jesus in.
Speaker 2:Pray over your house tonight, pray over your workspace, pray over yourself. Put your hand on your head tonight and say Lord, I believe in miracles, I believe in miracles. Put your hand on your chest, put your hand on your head and say, lord, I believe. And tonight, lord, as I come to the table, as I break bread, I believe in miracles. I believe hearts are being healed. Is there someone in your life that needs new lungs? Is there someone in your life that needs to get out of the wheelchair? Is there someone in your life that needs a new heart? Is there someone in your life that's got a C right? Is there someone around you that needs a miracle? Believe as we come to the table. Listen to this music. Listen to the words of this come to the table.
Speaker 3:Come meet this mighty crew of misfits, these liars and these thieves. There's no one unwelcome here.
Speaker 1:And that sin and shame that you brought with you.
Speaker 3:You can leave it at the door and let mercy draw you near. So come to the table, come join the sinners who have been redeemed. Take your place beside the Savior.
Speaker 2:Amen, amen, amen. Come to the table. Come on, let's get to the table. Father, in the name of Jesus, lord, we bring our hearts. We Come on, let's get to the table. Father, in the name of Jesus, lord, we bring our hearts, we bring our minds, we bring everything that we got. And, lord, we want to surrender. We want to surrender, lord, our doubts, our fears, our struggles. We want to surrender everything we got. In the name of Jesus, lord, we want to surrender everything we got. Tonight, lord and Father, as we broke bread together, lord, I thank you that this bread symbolizes the body of Christ. And, lord, I thank you that we are born again, that we're radical believers, that we're spirit-filled, that there is revelational knowledge right now in our spirit. Tonight, lord, we believe that this bread symbolizes the body of Christ. In Jesus' name, amen.
Speaker 3:Amen.
Speaker 1:Come join the sinners you have been redeemed.
Speaker 3:Take your place beside the Savior. Sit down and be set free. Sit down and be set free. Come to the table.
Speaker 1:Come to the table, sit down and be set free. Come to the table, hallelujah, hallelujah. Brothers and sisters, let's take it a cup, set free.
Speaker 2:Come to the table, hallelujah, hallelujah. Brothers and sisters, let's take it a cup, the redemption cup. Do you realize that you are redeemed? Do you realize that you are free? Do you realize that you are blessed and highly favored, wonderfully and fearfully made. Father, will you cover us in the blood of Jesus tonight? Cover us in the blood of Jesus. Cover us in the blood of Jesus tonight. Cover us in the blood of Jesus. Cover us in the blood tonight, god, from the crown of our head to the sole of our feet.
Speaker 2:Lord, I don't want to be known as a pastor. I don't want to be known as a reverend or preacher. I don't want to be known as a churchgoer. I want to be known as a follower of Jesus Christ. I want to be known as that, someone that followed Jesus, someone that was radical enough to believe in miracles, someone that was radical enough to believe that the dead are going to be raised, someone that was radical enough to believe that the sick are going to be healed. I want to be known as someone that believes in the power of the Word of God. Let's believe as we take of this cup, the cup of redemption. So, father, we thank you for this cup tonight. Cleanse us from the crown of our head to the sole of our feet.
Speaker 2:Spirit of the living God, touch hearts tonight. Everybody online. Touch everybody online through the world of radio. Lord, for those that are listening to us through the power of radio. Lord, for those that are listening to us through the power of radio. For those that are watching the live stream broadcast, for those that will capture this service in a podcast. Lord, god, I pray tonight that the spirit of the living god will awaken hearts tonight.
Speaker 2:Lord, I don't want to be known as a churchgoer, a reverend, a pastor, all those worldly labels. I want to be known as someone that was radical for Jesus. That that, ben, he believed that God's going to raise the dead. That that, ben, he believed in creation. That that, ben, he believed in the power of the blood of Jesus. That he believes that the word of God is the word of God without error. Spirit of the living God, cleanse us tonight as we take of this cup, as it symbolizes the blood of Jesus.
Speaker 2:Wherever you are, jesus loves you. Jesus Christ died on the cross for you. Don't worry about those people around you. Let them be barking like wild dogs. Don't worry about that toxic situation because god is going to nullify don't worry about those people that are trying to tear you down what the enemy meant for harm, god will turn for good what the enemy is trying to do in your life. The enemy will fall what people are trying to destroy you over. Then people will be destroyed in the name of Jesus. The blood of Jesus is over you. The power of the Holy Spirit is over you.
Speaker 2:Do you realize that the fire of God is in you? Realize that the fire of God is in you? Do you realize that you were called by Yahweh? Do you realize that the fire of the Holy Spirit is sitting in you this evening, this hour, whatever your time zone is? Do you realize that the God that put the stars in the heaven, the God that commanded angels to be put to fly, do you realize that that God that sent his son loves you? Do you realize who you are in God? Do you realize that the power of the living word is in your spirit and you are unstoppable, not because of you, but because of him? The Bible says touch not thine anointed.
Speaker 2:Don't worry about the trouble that's on the outside. Run to jesus. Don't worry about the the situations on the social network platforms. Don't worry about, about those people that are trying to tear you down. Don't allow that situation at school, at college, don't allow that place at work to tear you down. You tell the devil that he's a liar and he's the father of lies and he's a scumbag. Tell the devil tonight he's a scumbag and he's under your feet in the name of Jesus. You worship your God in spirit and in freedom. Tonight you worship your God and you tell the devils and the scumbags around your life it's over Rover, because my God's coming in the name of Jesus. My Jesus is coming back for me. My Jesus went to the cross for me. My Jesus is my redeemer, my Jesus is my rock, he is my savior, he is the living God, he is the king of kings and he is the Lord of lords. And when Jesus Christ said it is finished and there was bloodshed for me, there was bloodshed for you.
Speaker 2:Let's take this cup tonight. Let's take a moment. It's a special time tonight because God's calling you. God's calling you and you don't need a pound, you don't need education, you don't need anybody in your life, because God is with you. You've got the three the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit and he's calling you by name. And he's called you by name and he's calling you right now in the name of Jesus.
Speaker 2:Say yes, lord, I'm ready tonight. I'm ready for the miracle. I'm ready, lord, let it rain on me tonight. Lord, I want to see the glory and the power. So take this cup right now and say, jesus, I thank you that I'm already cleansed, I'm already washed in the blood of Jesus. But I just want to tell the dogs around me tonight. I want to tell the scumbags around me tonight. I want to show them physically that this king loves me. Lord, I want to tell the toxic people in my life you better start running, because Jesus is about to elevate.
Speaker 2:You tell the devil he's a scumbag, he's a liar. You tell that situation to go in the name of Jesus, because there is power in the blood. There is power in the blood of Jesus and you are washed. Cleanse me from the crown of my head to the sole of my feet in the name of Jesus, amen. As this instrumental music is playing, you know.
Speaker 2:You tell those around you. You better watch yourself, because my God's coming. You better be careful what you say about me, because my God is coming. You tell the world around you I'm about to rise. I'm about to soar on wings as of eagles. You tell the devils get back in the name of Jesus. You tell those people around you I'm coming out in the name of Jesus. I'm rising out of this pit. I'm coming out of this hellhole of a life you've given me. I'm coming out in the name of Jesus. I'm rising in the name of Jesus Christ. I'm standing on the word of God. You don't realize.
Speaker 2:You think that you're coming at me, but have you seen them? Angels behind me? Have you seen those legions of angels? Have you seen who's got my back? Have you seen who brought me into this world? And you toxic lot out there. You lot out there. You're not going to take me out. In the name of Jesus. No bullet, no knife is going to take me off the earth. No text, no email, no dog is going to take me off this earth. Have you seen the angels that have been assigned to me? Have you read Psalm 91? Devil, let me read you this text. Let me read you Psalm 91, devil, let me tell your world around me you think that you're going to iron me out. You think you're going to knock the granny out of me. Let me tell you this devil, you're under my feet. You're under my feet because the devil is a liar. Let me tell you there are legions of angels that have got my back. There are legions of angels that are going to be put to flight at the command of his word. Tell the devils to run at the name of Jesus. Tell the situation to reverse tonight. In the name of Jesus.
Speaker 2:The bible Bible says in Psalm 91, verse 11,. For he will command his angels concerning you. For he will. He is the truth. He is the John 8 32. He will command his angels concerning you over every area of your life. There are angels being put to flight to guard you. There are angels that have been put to flight over your life. There are angels being put to flight to guard you. There are angels that have been put to flight over your life to protect you from the scumbags, from the dogs, from those that are trying to mutilate the flesh.
Speaker 2:God has put angels in your life and no one is going to take you out or me out. No one is going to destroy our life because there is word in you, there is glory in you, there is power in you. There is word living in you. Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. He is the King of Kings and he is the Lord of Lords. He is the great I am. You tell those around you that are causing you trouble. You want to watch yourself, because you're not fighting me, you're fighting the king, because the battle belongs to the Lord. The battle belongs to the Lord. I've just got to show up. And if you want to wrestle with me, devil, if you want to straighten up with me, devil, if you want to try and knock it out of me, devil, just remind yourself who created you, devil. Just remind yourself God is about to destroy. There's a beautiful scripture.
Speaker 2:As we come to the end of the service this evening, and wherever you are, remember what the Bible says. God says to the Israelites I will be an enemy to your enemies. Just ponder on that a moment. I will be an enemy to your enemies, your enemies. Imagine having God as your enemy. Imagine having God against you. But the Bible says he is for you and not against you. He is your shield, he is your rampart, he is the bright morning star. He is the great I am. He is your shield of faith. He is the sword of the spirit. He is your helmet of salvation. He is the breastplate of righteousness. He is that buckle of truth. He is the gospel of peace that your feet are in tonight. He is your redeemer. He is your God. We're out of here in the name of Jesus. We're out of here in the name of Jesus. We're out of here in the name of Jesus. God bless you everyone. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ.
Speaker 2:Alex is going to take us out tonight with a prayer when he's ready, but I just want to remind you of John 8, 32. You will know the truth and the truth will set you free. Remind yourself tonight John 8, 32. It's on the screen, it's in the living word. There are angels that are put to flight over your life, legions of angels that are going to guard you, that have guarded you, that are protecting you, that have looked after you. You are unstoppable because you're woven into the fabric of the text. You are woven into, you are grafted in. You are in the fabric of God. You are in because he called you in. Never give up, never give up, never give up. My brother Alex is going to close the service with a prayer tonight, and I pray that, wherever you are, you realize that you serve an unstoppable God. God bless everyone. Alex, my friend.
Speaker 3:Let us pray. I come before you battling fear and doubt. Help me to believe in your promises even when fear tries to overwhelm me. Greaten my faith and remind me you are greater than any fear I face. Your words say do not be afraid, just believe. That's Mark 5, verse 36. Lord, help me to hold on to his truth. Replace my fear and trust and my doubt with confidence In your love and power. I surrender my fear to you and choose to believe in you. Your protection and peace Guide me through everything that's going through me With my fear. I do not want to fear no more. In Jesus name, amen.
Speaker 2:Amen, amen, amen. Alex, you smashed it, son. There you go. He smashed the devil's work. God bless you wherever you are, in the name of Jesus Christ. We're out of here. Wherever you are tonight, I just pray that you will feel the love of Jesus, the presence of the Holy Spirit, and never give up, because you are unstoppable because of him.
