[0:00] Hallelujah. We thank God you've tuned into this message by David Entry at Caris Church. No hand can help you with the fulfillment of your destiny, but the Word of God. May God's hand align you further into your destiny through this Word.
[0:17] Amen. Someone shout glory. Shout glory. Amen. There is an end.
[0:30] Every meeting, in every meeting, the most important aspect of every Christian gathering is the presence of God.
[0:41] The presence of the Spirit. And the presence of the Spirit can have dimensions of expression based on some factors.
[0:52] The chiefest of all the factors is the agenda of God. And so, and then the hunger of the people and sacrifices behind the gathering.
[1:06] A few factors. So, the most important aspect of our gathering is the presence of God. Now, other determinants of the gathering besides the presence of God is who is present.
[1:26] So, it's a separate unto me. If Barnabas and Saul were not there, he wouldn't say that statement. So, that manifestation was a function, was based on the presence of certain people he wanted for an assignment.
[1:49] And he was the one who organized and he was the mastermind behind their showing up. And when they were there, he said separate. Peter was not there.
[2:01] That's why we never had separate unto me Peter. It was Paul and Barnabas who was there. Okay, then there's an assignment I have for Paul and Barnabas with the others.
[2:12] But this time it's Paul and Barnabas. So, the manifestation of the glory that showed up had also to do with who was present.
[2:27] And so, the presence of God in a gathering is so important. That determines the nature of the gathering. And secondly, the manifestation of the presence also has to do with who is present.
[2:42] Who is present? And I'm so happy that you are present. God will not send a message to people who the message is not relevant to.
[3:00] So, he sent an angel from heaven in Luke chapter 1 to Nazareth, to a city called Nazareth, to a virgin called Mary. It was specific.
[3:11] God sends messages. In fact, it says that the message we got sent to Israel, Acts chapter 10 verse 36. The message God sent to Israel, which was preached.
[3:24] So, God always sends a message to a people. The message has the people in mind. And why am I saying all these things? Every gathering attracts a unique presence.
[3:39] Because of one particular person who is there. Do you understand that? So, your coming has added a certain presence.
[3:52] A dimension of God. Because you are a gem. You are significant in what God is doing. That's why you are alive. So, your presence adds a dimension of this glorious God.
[4:09] Yesterday, we were in a service and there was a majestic presence of Jesus, our Lord, who showed up here. And his expression of him, supernaturally, which I picked up, was all of us together.
[4:27] Every one of us form an expression of him. So, that means that whoever is here plays a role in what, even if it's an unbeliever, if it's a thief, if it's a devil who shows up here.
[4:43] God's presence factors that, the presence of that devil. Do you understand what I'm saying? And so, every gathering has a unique expression of the divine presence, which I call it a flavor.
[5:04] It's a flavor. I sense there's a flavor of victory. There's a flavor of victory wherever everybody is.
[5:17] Those who have gathered in different viewing centers. I'm telling you, there's a flavor of victory that God is lavishing upon our gathering.
[5:30] Oh, I see heaven visiting somebody in an unusual way. If you are the one I'm talking about, let your amen show me.
[5:41] He said, stand still. Exodus chapter 14, 13 and 14.
[5:55] Stand still and see the salvation. Another word is victory. The salvation. Stand still and see the salvation which the Lord of the Lord, which he will show you.
[6:11] It is God's salvation which he's bringing. Thanks be to God who always gives us the victory. The Lord is my strength and my song.
[6:27] He has become my salvation. God himself. So, God gives victory. God is our victory.
[6:38] And this special day, I sense a God-given victory coming to somebody. When you go for an interview and you do well and you get the job, it's you went and you said that you went, you got the job.
[6:55] But when your friend or your cousin or somebody has that vacancy and they said, don't come. Or your former manager, it tends to happen a lot.
[7:06] I see somebody's former manager about to do that for you. He goes to a better place and with a better role. And there's a bigger role and say, you are the one I want to work for. So, you don't need an interview.
[7:18] I'm going to make sure you get it. You get in there not because of how well you did in an interview. You got in there because someone handed it to you. I'm telling you, not every victory you have to fight to get.
[7:31] There are some victories that are donated. There are some victories that are credited. There are some victories that are given. I stand here as a prophet and I'm telling you, I see God giving you the victory.
[7:43] I see God giving you the victory. I see heaven giving you the victory. I see it manifesting in your life. Sarah said, the Lord has made me to laugh.
[7:54] Moses said, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will show you this day. God is giving you victory. God is giving you victory. God is giving somebody victory.
[8:04] I see it's a flame of victory upon this assembly. Oh, wherever you are watching, wherever you are sitting, wherever, whether in this auditorium, whether in the overflow, whether at the viewing centers, or whether in your living room, as you watch, I sense God giving you victory and you feel believing.
[8:26] Shout a living, amen. Well, put your hands together. Let's give Jesus praise. Let's give Jesus praise.
[9:04] In other words, this kind of thanks is not only limited to the victories we've had in the past, because it didn't say that God who gave, it said who gives.
[9:18] I like the KJ, or New KJ said, who gives. So he has done it and he's about to do it. There are other ones coming you haven't seen, and for that one, we have to give God thanks. Come on, someone, give Jesus thanks.
