You can open up and pray for us actually OK Oh God we thank you that we can come into

your presence because of your son We thank you that you have uh through Him made

us sons of God And we come into your presence to hear your word Holy Spirit all over tonight

Guide us teach us show us and give us the application that we need to know in Jesus mighty

name Amen OK Welcome to this battle class Tuesday the 27th of February Um This

is not straight teaching this is kind of be a bit more personally Ish It's

something for us all to really was something that he he pointed out to me which I really need

to kind of like to share with you guys So for example we've been together for I have

a period of time and you can take this principle for um for anything So for example in

my in the back of my head I'm thinking to stop the battle class as you see it

format for a while while we why you digest what you already have It's a bit

like when Hugh was saying ah I've got a month I can look over the

things that I've been learning and and just to digest those things I had this this quote that

I have and it's every path has a place and every place has a path and on what it's

about is when people speak the words lead you somewhere and it's your job to actually think actually where is

this leading So we've been I've been teaching for I don't know how long we've been

doing the teaching for but it's at the end of the day God wants us to look at I'm

actually taking you somewhere And the scripture that I have is in Luke 14 and

it's talking about considering um this you need to consider where is God taking me

Luke 14 Luke 1428 to 29 And it's it's not just here in battle class This

is a principle for even in church wherever you are and whatever you're doing It's actually sitting down and

saying actually go where are you taking me Because you're taking me somewhere at some particular point I need to

make a decisions Yeah So I've asked Liam to read the scripture which is uh look

it it doesn't matter just your your Bible as massive crowds followed Jesus he turned to them and said when

you follow me as my disciple you must put aside your father your mother your wife your sisters

your brothers It will even seem as though you hate your own life This is the price

you'll pay to be considered one of my followers Anyone who comes to me must be willing to share

my cross and experience it as his own or he cannot be considered my disciple So

don't follow me without considering what it will cost you for who would construct the house before first sitting

down to estimate the cost to complete it Otherwise he may lay the foundation and not be able to finish

The neighbors will ridicule him saying look at him he started to build but couldn't complete it

You have you ever heard of a commander who does who goes out to war

without first sitting down with strategic planning to determine the strength of his army to win the war

against a stronger opponent If he knows he doesn't stand a chance of winning the war the wise commander will

send out delegates to ask for the terms of peace Likewise unless you surrender all to me giving

up all you possess You cannot be one of my disciples Salt is good for seasoning But if salt were

to lose its flavor how could it ever be restored Thank you Li most epic

Luke 14 in the Passion translation which I will send to you So here is the issue What are we

building And are we considering the cost So this is one of the things Lord spoke to

me about last week which is all I want to share with you last week but I'll

share it with you now And it was are we prepared for an outbreak No In church history there had

been this thing called revivals and and it's been interesting I'm not really that minded

because at the end of the day what God wants to do in you as an

individual is take away the limitations so that between you and Him there are no

limitations in your life So nothing is impossible You can do all things through Christ

who strengthens well it's not a church thing This is removing the barriers that's inside your life

But he gave me a question and he says are you prepared for an overflow Are you prepared for

the banks to break Are you prepared for You know I had to and I

had to sit down and I had to think do I really want that You know I had to

think things like um because think of this Moses was in the wilderness tend in shape God

said to him I want you to go back to Egypt And he knew he had to think in that

moment if I go back to Egypt I could die or in short my life will change Now

after he went to Egypt Moses was no longer a small Moses Moses was not Moses for

all the things that happened He was not Moses and this is what the Lord is speaking to

me about and for us and it's about not stepping into the occasional but we're

talking about stepping into the consistent and the consistent is not the same as the occasional in

any by any stretch But it's the scripture says you need to sit down and consider this you know people

say yeah yeah yeah But no God says no sit think about it You know it's like if I

say right now I'm going to move right now and that many people will give you

and I have to turn and say a religious formula You have to do this

and this and this and this and this and then this will happen if God hasn't said that don't

aim for that All right please calm down He knows Michael's coming Yeah sorry for the for the

uh sell them two people OK 234 Yeah mama and son Yeah Shut up shut up shut up

apologies He said so just a small recap guys What we're looking at is in Luke 1428 And it's

about considering what God is building and it's it's really about a personal thing So we've been together

for X amount of months or weeks and God must be leading you somewhere Every word that you've received

is creating a vision is creating an image is creating a thought pattern is creating a change

for something And there comes a point like with me last week where God says um do you want a

breakout Now I've heard the word breakout before and I don't think he's actually talking to me about

breakouts That's been before What he's not referring to that cos I don't really understand that but he's just talking

about are you prepared to allowed the banks to break and for there to be an overflow

That's just continue Yeah So he gave me he made me see that sometimes church

the way church is built is it has borders And here the Lord is speaking about

a church without borders So and here he's talking about but more for us not having borders forget church

It's just about speaking to us and saying I don't want borders because the borders are manmade

limits And when we have the scripture I can do all things required to strengthen me You

can't have borders So you have to consider do I have borders And am I

willing to let these borders be dismantled to be destroyed so that God can be God And

instead of saying oh yeah God says actually sit down and consider this because we're talking about consistency Here

we're talking about a change something you have not experienced I'm not talking about revival stories that's

irrelevant We're talking about something that you haven't experienced for yourself and you haven't seen this before Everything

else is ill or relevant because we're talking about you and me and he's talking

to you saying are you willing for a change to take place Complete change And I was

given an example about how Moses was first in the wilderness tending the sheep with Jethro and

all these guys knowing God calling him back to Egypt and he's thinking to himself I

could die He was chatting to the missus Um But what he's saying is it's

not just I could die It's this could change everything if I go back And we as

we know we know the story Moses became Moses and it's the same with us

now And I also was sharing that some people can say there's a particular formula

for a particular revival and break out or whatever they want to And I'm personally saying whatever

that just throw that in the bin right now because it's not what God may

be saying to you A breakout could be I just want he may just be saying I

want to between me and you decide make a decision that there'd be no barriers between us

Yeah Anything else is is not relevant We don't want to drag things in It's not relevant

just just wanna hear him and what he's saying now I want to also bring

up um things like because your leaders as well It's um there's actually there's a few things when

somebody is speaking you have to say to yourself what are you committing yourself to So I'm I've been

teaching for whatever period of time and you have to come to a place which I've been listening

to people preach for years I've been in these costumes for years and I never did this

but he brought it up today So I was just sharing it to you as just a

just as a lesson Just something that we can be aware of to recognize Where is this leading

Where is this guy taking me It may be good information but actually is he leading me somewhere

You know and and and there are moments where you have to sit down and say Lord should I

be going that way That is great But should I be going that way Yeah and

it's something that we need to kind of like be aware of and exercise a lot It doesn't

matter who's talking it's we need to be sensitive to who every path has a place and every place

has a path And it's like my guy is this is this is that is this

ok Maybe good but is this ok for me Right right now And just to

be aware of that because God is saying listen you need to sit down concerned in building a tower

sit down and count the costs you know not just he's saying if you're gonna be involved in something then

you have to consider the cost think about this And um and that's just a kind

of general revelation in one sense But for us here in the school it's also something that we just want

you to be aware of no matter what you're doing where you're going if you're

teaching other people as well it's kind of this is these are things you're looking out for that

People understand what they're doing and understand what's going on here This is not a we're not

doing a fly by we're not into games anymore Those things are going out the

window we're into God is building something He has actually sat down and then what is what he's telling us

to do right now count the costs He's done there He has done that He's our example counting the cost

And so we need to look at counting the cost and the implications on our on our life

And you know and then you have the h the scriptures who he who doesn't love

his wife sister mother brother more than me This is counting the cost So he's saying

yeah think about your family and when I say I'm counting the cost we're talking about all that's closer to

you Are you willing to kind of like let that be affected and changed Yeah I can't say how things

are gonna go from from now But what I'm what I'm seeing is regardless of

that we need to count the cost Go back to God spend that time and say Lord show me

where do you want me to put my focus you know show me what you show me

where are we in this thing What can I can I put a bit here and a bit here just

whatever just hear what he has to say you know and I really sense that

it's really vital that we become sensitive to where we been taken You know it could be we

could have multiple streams in our life and he may just want to get keep getting good

at risk streams until there's only two streams that you're following or do you know

it doesn't matter But he just wants you to be focused because it's your time He's building you

he is building something in you and this is our and whatever he's telling you to do you

know if you be in a position like I was put in a position where

it's like um he said well you know you have to commit to all the

things that you said to the people in your battle class You know you have

to avoid your debt and break Yeah I have to do those things you know

and I was like wow and he showed me something today He said some people will never

get your vision What do you do Um So you share your heart but they still don't get

it Yeah What do you do if their covering isn't enough Yeah And there there is an

example David went to Saul and said hey this is my vision this is my

life And so said yeah let me cover you And they said no thank you That don't fit

me And when the Lord show me that today I was like oh that was a covering and he

rejected the covering you know and they weren't like enemies at the time And I was like that's

interesting And he went out in his testimony of what God had told him So

there's like making the decision that I'm going to go And we know the story how many people follow David

on that battlefield None David went to face them Goliath by himself a little thing And this is and

this and this is another issue of counting the cost if God is telling you to go alone Yeah

But the issue is you're hearing that David heard them you sat down and you said to

the Lord ok Lord what should I be thinking You spent that time and this is what

we're talking about spending that time to find out What is he saying to you Yeah I have a way

What's he saying to you So that whatever you do you do it with all your heart

Yeah She says you're not restrained you're not faint you know faint doing it faintly and you're you're committed because

Jesus we see is our example of what commitment looks like And this is yeah this is

something that I think and then the other part is whatever he's saying to you

lay these plans before him Yeah because I we're at a stage right now where

I expect a little bit of turbulence and the Lord spoke to me and he showed me

that this is just an area of change like with the school right now he's saying

right you've got to a place where I wanted you to get to Now I'm going to increase activity But

in order to do that things have to change you can't be going on the same way you've

been going and expect the same thing something has to change Now I'll be honest with you

there is not a thing in my brain right now You know he he gave me so many

revelations and experiences on the weekend when I was in Brighton But some of that is

not relevant to today to share because I have to I should eat something And because what it's about is

recognizing recognizing when you come to a place of change If he's telling you right now to consider this moment

then you've come to a place of change Is that right If he's saying think about where you

are right now then you're saying then you're gonna think you're gonna hear you can you're gonna conclude and you're

going to act this is a change you know so he's telling you that this

is what I'm building I want to see what I'm building See where I'm taking

you and then act on that Yeah because before I came here you were you he was building

you and he's still building you But here we are things have been added to you

So now you wanna take stock using some of the things that's been shared here Some of

the things that you had before or learning in between all the rest of it and say

OK where is this meeting and go with that Because one thing I've learned that's really changed my life since

the weekend The probably most profound thing that's ever happened to me is when I realized one of the keys

for uns supernatural living probably the number one for me now is reasoning Oh because you me I

know I could have turned around and said unbelief But this reasoning how reasoning can be

almost like a platform on which you do everything Yeah And here's good saying I

want that to go and I want the new king to be your platform And so this reasoning thing could

be the thing where you go This is your go too And you say that's what stops the supernatural

Think about when somebody has a miracle So for example let's pretend not pretend the lady with the who

was caught in adultery and all of a sudden she's in a situation where no

one is ready to stone her but she's thinking in her head they have every right to stone me

I'm an Israelite I know the law They're justified to do it I should die I

should die And he says Jesus standing in front of her and she knows here

is God sane sin no more live And she's thinking yeah but this is unreasonable This is and she's

there and she's stuck and this is what miracles and signs and wonders This is what the

supernatural brings it It just messes with reason completely Four or 5000 people Jesus breaking loaves and fishes

Is that reasonable Mhm Yeah That whole mind is completely un like what this is why they were

amazed because he destroyed reasoning This is like uh it's like OK I turn around and say to

you Jesus loves you and you said to yourself I don't know if you've ever done this I

do all the time Why I don't get it I try hard My brain just cannot

grab a hold of something to make one and one make to it It just can't do it My

reasoning just does not cannot grip that I don't get it And it made me see Reasoning is

one of the is that is the thing If you start living outside of reasoning

you start talking different thinking different acting different you know so you spend time with

that That's one of the major ones from Brighton So you got something from Brian

there But it's a major thing because if God is bringing change into our lives

then there's a strong possibility that the things that we have hung on to before he's now saying I'm

getting rid of uh maybe the big thing that's in your life is how you

reason And if that's gone then now you're dependent on what the Holy Spirit is saying to you And

when even when you read the Bible you just gonna read it and see from a different perspective because

now here as God is saying you have his mind and you can do all things It's you know

it's very difficult to think I can do all things and reason at the same

time Mhm It just these two are not compatible Now you can reason to get saved between you

and Him because he says that it's reason together But when you come into walking into

the acts of God it's just here and do it's here and do There is

no reasoning We're working it out which is what we spend most of our time trying to figure out

how we're gonna get this and how we're gonna and we're reasoning this whole thing once the reasoning is

dealt with because now you're aware of reasoning is wrong It's in your spirit all

of a sudden that area will start to take over So it's not a kind it's not a

mean that sent all right I've got to get rid of reasoning Now now once you're aware the

change will take place So it's very exciting So we ask God what is Lord what are you building And

like David we consider this whole situation of I don't care what my brothers think I'm gonna do

this You know there is an enemy in front I need to fight the living God not on my

watch whatever God is telling you to do And it's very clear to David this uncircumcised Philistine was

dead He understood him uncircumcised Philistine He understood No not acceptable Now not before Israel not before me Boom

And this is this whole thing about hearing how what it's got forming in you and

who you are and what year to be Yeah I was in Brighton sitting on this table It just

it was really odd how I got to this place because I was trying to figure out

how to get to to leave daughters cafe and I ended up going to this place and

then I just I just walk in and just and I ended up in this cafe and

I thought OK sit here and I sat there and usually I don't talk to

anybody when I go to meditate But this time I was open and I was conscious I was open I

was like that's weird I am conscious that right now either I'm going to minister to somebody or

something's gonna come Anyway this guy came in and he sat decide and he sat

there for about a few minutes and he was drinking his tea and I and I noticed he drank

it very quickly Um and I was also like that weird because people just take their time when they drink

teas and coffees But he's I finished in like a minute It was like you does that that's

what I noticed you know and then he turns around and he says do I know you

And cos he heard me laugh at the computer I'm looking at the tablet and

I'm going oh Lord no And so he turns around and looks at me and

then he's looking at my tablet then then he turns around again and he goes obviously

something like that And he goes do I know you And I said maybe I

go and he goes do you go to church And I says I do and he says um

is it in Brighton I said no And but I knew something was going on So

I was just keeping it fresh and just keeping it Yeah And I was just like here we go This

should be interesting And so he said so what was so funny about that So he looked on my screen

and on my screen it's written these are the words written on there Saint Apollo Constantine And

I'm like that is not funny But obviously he thinks it's funny and he goes oh maybe he's

just trying to humble you you know and you know and or maybe he wants to bring back the

old and he's going to use you to bring back the old and he says we're all saints So

maybe it's not funny maybe it's kind of serious like he's sitting in there and pondering this same

revelation I'm just thinking I'm not going around called being saying Apollo constant and that's just too close

to Brixton and I'll just get stoned and killed by everybody else So you know I'm just having this little

this this little thing with with with him It's only later on I realized it that title is

not actually addressed to anybody This is a this is a spiritual title addressed to

something So that's to this other room And I was like oh that's deep But

anyway so I'm talking to this guy and sometimes you know it's just a bad habit

but sometimes when people are talking and and they're new to me I'm thinking ok at some point in

time they're going I'm going to go they're one of them at some point I'll give it oh they are

one of them but not with this guy And I was like oh this guy is

deep I like this guy He's listening as well and we're both having a good talking about you

know he's talking about some of his experiences how he came into the prophetic and and blah

blah And he and he was he was on fire He was excited He was

nearly screaming in the building van He was he was and he turned and says do you think

this is a coincidence And I was just like didn't say it's not is it

And I was like not gonna ask this So so we're laughing we're having an amazing

time And I thought back to when I once said let's all go to Brighton and maybe we can

invite other brethren in Brighton But we don't know any brethren in Brighton especially brethren

that may sink with us that we can actually gel with So it was just interesting

There was this guy who was just totally like I wanna see your people Do you know

what I mean I'm connected with all these other prophetic ministries as well And I can't wait to

tell them the things that you showed me today and and we and we're just having this this this this

amazing thing And I was thinking oh I change you know and I was thinking this is interesting He all

spoke to me about this and I stood there thinking look what are you building Because

this is what he's putting in my heart You've come to a place of change it

looked like conflict but actually it was just a place of change a different way of thinking

And he's saying and I can see very clearly he was building his thing wherever this thing is

he's building it and that's what I want to share with you Wherever God is building he will add to

it Mhm Yeah He will add to it because he's building it and the fear of

will I mess this up Which is what I had you can throw in a bin because when he said

to me he said one of the things he showed me was what is there

is there You can't mess it up if it's there I was like oh cos it's there it's

there He said yeah I made it there You didn't make it there I put it

there You can't mess it up So you know how we have these thoughts about

ourselves and thinking this that um all the rest of it And again it was almost like reasoning

out the window And it's and after you spent that time of recognizing reasoning is a bad guy

in that context And you've considered Right Lord I want to go all out with you Then you're

on this little journey of seeing things hearing things doing things differently and it's not the same

things not the same things Yeah So this is what I'm saying today cos you know like I

said part of my heart is at the moment is stop battle class for now and we just go over

the things you go over the things that you have learned or been learning you know

take a period of time just to go back over those things What you've been learning and seeing what

God wants to do cos um when he said to me one of the reasons that

you're not seeing the supernatural unhinged is because you are not prepared for the impact on

your life Oh and he will not give you more than you can handle Yeah So it's not

because I this guy didn't lay hands on you and it has nothing to do with that This

is just you and him this is about him removing boundaries inside you But here is n explaining

the phone is comes when you say yes you sat down and considered and you say

yes OK And let him lead you in the process of of this change of mind

You know it's not here in the meeting Just cos you're here just let him lead you in

this process You commit yourself to hear you know to hearing what he has to

say to you how to see things and let that and let that um circulate in you and

just and just take it from there Everything else is actually not important you know it's just you're just going

back to the Lord and going wow you said Xy and Z to me before actually where am I going

What's I mean how do you want me to go for me He gave me this he

cos he's been speaking to me in the last few weeks about evangelism He showed me a way of

doing evangelism I was like oh this is exciting I'm not gonna share that yet because it

may be different from how he shares it with you I don't want I don't

want us to get this confused I want to give you some formula formula And do you think ah let

me go and try this whereas because you're different So it's you hearing Lord um Right I'm considering

this could impact my life You've given me all these things So you start to

believe all these things that he has given you and the impact it will have on

your life and the consistency of it You've heard of ministries and you don't hear the consistency and you

think oh this is what ministry is like No this is what their ministry is like This is

not what God is saying to you You know if God can prove to you yes your ministry will be

like that then that's different But if you're just picking up things and just guessing and just assuming and

that's a dangerous place to be Yeah God is your provider What does that mean Yeah So

it's things like this Let the Holy Spirit show you how to think at this point in time You

just saying I want you to consider this was gonna have an impact on your life is that are you

ok with that Yeah So we'll stop right here because it's because it is it's not a game when

I was one of the things I really thought is you know if we'd had

this time where we were just spending time it's not me speaking it's just we come together and we just

look over our notes and and we just spend that time We're just here together looking over

what has he been saying And and seeing how he's picturing it and placing it and

then at some particular point in time um I don't know how he's going to change it but

I know he will change it but that has to be done We can't go past this

consideration this considering thing It's not enough to say yeah look I'll follow you wherever you

go you consider how you build consider the costs consider this and then he will tell you you've considered he

will add to that and he'll say you've considered and it'll add something to that

Nobody else can tell you no book no preacher nobody they can confirm it But he

will say to you you have considered So let's go Amen Amen Ok let me stop there
