 Okay, so we are welcome back up to break before the break, we were looking at chapter three. Now we'll be looking at chapter four, the inner witness of the Holy Spirit. And we looked at John chapter 16 verse 13 to 14 on the Holy Spirit guide us, he just walks through it, he leads us into the pleasing, well pleasing and acceptable will of God and will also lead us and guide us and show us the things that are going to come in the future. Okay, now we'll take a look at 1 Corinthians chapter 2 verses 9 to 16. And there are a few things that we can learn from 1 Corinthians chapter 2 verses 9 to 16. Okay, 1 Corinthians chapter 2 verse 9 to 16, if you can turn to page number 43 please in your books or the PDF copy. Okay, so 1 Corinthians chapter 2 verses 9 to 16 says that you know, but as it is written, I has not seen nor hear heard nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love him. Okay, but God has revealed them to us through his spirit, for the spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. We've already looked at this study, this verse when we were looking at, you know, fulfilling God's purpose for our lives, we saw that God has wonderful great big wonderful plans that he's planned and prepared for us, but how do we know it? Who reveals it to us is the Holy Spirit who reveals it. What's the meaning of the word reveal? The word reveal means to, the Greek word means to uncover, to unveil, to make known, to make manifest, to make, to disclose before us what is unknown. So the things that are unknown to us, the Holy Spirit reveals it to us and so it's so important for us to have fellowship with the Holy Spirit. Okay, in verses 11 and 12 says, you know, a man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him, even so no one knows the things of God except the spirit of God. Okay, verse 12, now we have received not the spirit of the world but the spirit who is from God that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. Okay, so who knows the things of God? The Holy Spirit. Okay, and here it says that we have been given the Holy Spirit, so we are so privileged, we have been given the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit is our teacher, our helper, our guide, our counsellor, he is the spirit of adoption, there's so many other things he gives us, the gifts of the Spirit he produces and as a food of the Spirit, but he also see here that, you know, we have the spirit of God and why do we have the spirit of God so that we will know. Okay, perceive means what? We will know, we will understand, we will discern, you know, the things that God has freely given to us. God has given us, you know, so many spiritual blessings, he's given us freely, we don't know many of them, but how do we know it? It's the Holy Spirit who will reveal it to us. Okay, and the Holy Spirit makes it known to us, so, you know, you don't have to go asking around people, you know, what do I do with this, you know, I'm this problem in the situation, how do I go about it, you know, you just have the Holy Spirit with you all the time, he's your counsellor, he's your guide, amen. Okay, you don't have to run here and there, you don't have to wait for people to tell you, but you can just ask the Holy Spirit because he's your guide, he makes known the things of God to us, he makes known the plans, the wonderful things that God has prepared for us, he makes known to us. Verses 13 to 15, okay, it says, the things which our Holy Spirit reveals to us have to be understood spiritually. Okay, so verses 13 to 15 says, these things we also speak, not in words which man's wisdom teaches, but with the Holy Spirit teaches comparing spiritual things with spiritual and verse 15 says, but he who is spiritual judges all things yet he himself is rightly judged by no one, verse 14, but the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God for their foolishness to him nor can he know them because they are spiritually deserved. Okay, so we see that the things that the Holy Spirit reveals to us cannot be understood by the natural mind. Okay, it has to be understood spiritually and that is why it's so important for us to feed our spirit man and not feed our carnal nature. Okay, so those who are living in their natural mind cannot understand, cannot comprehend, cannot discern what the Holy Spirit is telling them. We need to be spiritually minded. Okay, and the Holy Spirit reveals the things of God to us in our spirit man and that's why you know we need to be spiritual people and as spiritual people we need to judge which means we need to examine, we need to investigate everything before we accept them. Okay, and verse 16 it says, but who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him but we have the mind of Christ. Okay, why can we say that we have the mind of Christ? Okay, why do we say that we have the mind of Christ? Because the Holy Spirit reveals the mind of God to us. The Holy Spirit reveals the mind of Jesus to us. The Holy Spirit reveals the plans, the purposes, the decisions, the desires, the directions, the feelings, the intents, the thoughts of Jesus Christ and that is why we have the mind of Christ. Why do we have the mind of Christ? It's because the Holy Spirit reveals the things to us. So what is the end result of having the mind of Christ? The end result of having the mind of Christ is we're able to understand Jesus's plans, his direction, his purposes, his thoughts, his feelings that he has towards us. Okay, and we can know anything in any given matter because we have the mind of Christ because the Holy Spirit takes from Jesus and reveals it to us. Isn't that wonderful? Yes, so you know each one of us have the mind of Christ and because we have the mind of Christ we know the thoughts, we can receive the ideas, we can understand his plans and we can understand his ways. Okay, so I want you all to repeat this after me. I have the mind of Christ. I know his thoughts, I receive his ideas, I understand his plans, I understand his ways. I think you can make this declaration in your life, you know even as you are praying every day, you can say, God thank you that I have the mind of Christ because I have the mind of Christ, I know your thoughts God, I can receive your ideas God, I understand your plans and I can understand your ways. Okay, so as New Testament believers we have the mind of Christ and the Holy Spirit makes known to us the things that Jesus Christ has planned for us even before the foundations of the world. Okay, so there are several ways we can know the mind of Christ or we can know how the Holy Spirit reveals things to us. We will look at some things individually in the chapters to come but we will look at a few things here. We will first understand how the Holy Spirit speaks to us or reveals the mind of God to us. He reveals it to the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, inner witness of the Holy Spirit. Okay, so that is how the Holy Spirit speaks or reveals the mind of God to us, the plans, the purposes, the intents of God to us. Okay, so Romans chapter 8 verses 14 to 16, can somebody read that please. Thank you. So here he says that you know who are we? Sons and daughters of God. Okay, we are the sons and daughters of God. We are heirs of God. We are co-heirs with Christ Jesus. Okay, so we are sons and daughters of God and because we are sons and daughters of God, it means that we belong to God's family. Okay, so because we are sons and daughters of God, we are also led by the Holy Spirit. So we have this awesome privilege because we are sons and daughters of God that we can be led by the Holy Spirit. This is our privilege that we can be led and guided by the Spirit of God. Okay, and the Holy Spirit has another name. He's also called as the Spirit of adoption. Okay, that means the Holy Spirit testifies to us that we are children of God, that you are sons of God or your daughters of God. And we also see here in this verse that the Holy Spirit bears witness without spirit. The Holy Spirit bears witness without spirit. That means there's a joint witness. The Holy Spirit bears witness means the Holy Spirit together with our spirit, you know, testifies there's a joint witness that we are children of God. Okay, so here in verse 16, it says that, you know, how do we know that we are children of God because of the inner conviction, the inner witness, the inner knowing, the inner assurance that comes to the witness of the Holy Spirit. So when we are born again, we are born again in our spirit man, our spirit man is joined to the Holy Spirit and hence the Holy Spirit can bear witness, it can testify in our spirit man. And how do we know that we are children of God? It's the inner conviction, just inner conviction that I am a child of God, inner knowing, inner assurance that comes to the inner witness of the Holy Spirit. So the Holy Spirit's inner witness actually confirms to us that we are sons and daughters of God and also the Holy Spirit, you know, uses the inner witness as something to lead us and guide us. So two things the Holy Spirit does to the inner witness. The first thing confirms to us that we are sons and daughters of God. And the second thing, it also the Holy Spirit through the inner witness leads us and guides us. So what is this inner witness? How does the Holy Spirit guide us through this inner witness? Sometimes it will just be annoying. We just know in our heart that this is what the Holy Spirit is telling us to do. Sometimes it can be an assurance, sometimes it can be conviction, sometimes we can just sense the Holy Spirit is telling us. We will look at everything in detail, sometimes we can just feel, you know, it'll just be like, you know, somebody's giving you a gentle tap or a nudge, you know, when you experience the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, it will be this way. Okay. So how we need to understand the inner witness of the Holy Spirit when he's leading us and guiding us in the things of life should not be mixed up with our emotions. Okay. We should not confuse the inner witness of the Holy Spirit with our emotions. Okay. Now, 1 Corinthians chapter 6 verse 17 says, you know, we are joined to the Lord in one spirit with him. So when we are born again, you know, we become one spirit with God. Okay. So we are spiritually one with him. And hence the Holy Spirit can communicate to our spirit man. Hence we can hear the Holy Spirit speak, we can hear the Holy Spirit, we can feel the Holy Spirit, we can sense things in the Holy Spirit. Okay. And one way he speaks is to the inner witness of the spirit in our spirit man, he bears inner witness. Okay. But we need to be sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. There are several different ways that the Holy Spirit bears witness to our spirit. There are eight things that are listed here. Now, this is not the, you know, the only the eight, there are other ways. In the next chapter, we look at the voice of the Holy Spirit. The voice of the Holy Spirit is also like the inner witness of the Holy Spirit that bears witness in our spirit. But there are eight here, these are, you know, common ways, but, you know, the Holy Spirit can speak to us in many different ways. He can reveal things to us in many different ways. But we will look at these eight. The first one is the quickening of scripture. Second one is assurance within. Third is the desire. Fourth is the knowing. Fifth is the prompting. Sixth is the steering. Seven is the foreknowledge. And eight is the warning. And all this is happening within us, in our spirit man. Okay. So we need to make sure that our spirit man is aligned to the Word of God. It's submission to the, to the Word of God. It's obeying the Word of God. And that is when we can hear the Holy Spirit. So sometimes they say, you know, I have people, sorry. Sometimes we say, you know, people are saying they can hear the Holy Spirit, they can sense, they can feel, they are seeing things in the Spirit, but I am not, you know, it's not that the Holy Spirit is partial. God is not partial. Okay. He wants to reveal things. His only thing is we are not training our spirit man. We are not communicating to God, to our spirit man. We are not just reading our Bible and praying. It's becoming like a ritual. They're also not communicating with the Holy Spirit. We don't know him. We are not relating to him. So it's important for us to even fellowship with the Holy Spirit and relate to God in our spirit man. Okay. So the first thing we will look at is to the quickening of scripture. Now, before we look at all of these eight ways that the Holy Spirit you know, bears witness in a spirit, we need to know, accepting for the first one, that is a quickening of scripture, all the other seven, assurance, desire, knowing, prompting, steering, foreknowledge and warning within, you know, all of these others, you know, must be validated because sometimes it can even be our emotions, accepting for the first one, which is scripture, scripture speaks for itself to us, but accepting for scripture, all the others have to be validated. That means you have to go back to scripture and find out or you need to depend on the Holy Spirit to make sure whether it is the Holy Spirit that is leading you and guiding you. The first one is quickening to scripture. We've already looked at it in detail in the previous chapter, so we're not going to look at it. So, you know, how is the quickening of scripture happens? How does God you know, He will just give us a word, a reference word that will just come alive in our situations. We need to be safe in our spirit man to see that. The second one is assurance within. Assurance within basically comes to the peace, experience and unharming peace of God. And this peace of God serves multiple or in several different ways. Look at Philippians chapter 4 verses 6 and 7. It says, do not be anxious for nothing, but in everything with prayer and petition, you know, with thanksgiving, make known a request to God and the peace of God that passes all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ, Jesus. Okay. So here we say, we see that, you know, what happens when we are not anxious and we submit everything to God in prayer, what happens? We experience the peace of God. And what does it say? The peace of God that surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds. So the peace of God actually guards, it becomes like a fortress, it becomes like a wall that will prevent everything else that is coming against you from disturbing and robbing you of that peace. Isn't that wonderful? You know, when we are anxious, when we are worried, we go to God in prayer, we submit everything immediately to God's peace comes upon us. And not only that, God's peace is guarded so that, you know, those things that are troubling us does not bother us, that does not trouble us. And you know, if it's troubling us and bothering us, that means we have totally not surrendered to God. Sometimes we can say, you know, it's nothing to God, but we can still be anxious and worried and we don't have that peace. Then you need to remember, well, this is not what God's word says. When I submit it to God, I have to experience this peace because he guards that peace from anything else that come against it. Okay. The second thing we read is in Colossians 3 verse 15, it says, let the peace of God rule in your hearts to which you also were called in one body and be thankful. Okay. Sean, you can share with him the textbook. Oh, you have a textbook. Okay, great. Okay. So both of these scriptures are teaching us that believers should be walking in the peace of God in their hearts and in their minds. Okay. So, you know, one way the Holy Split bears witness is through the peace of God. Okay. So Colossians 3 verse 5 says, you know, the word loses the word rule, the peace of God will rule your hearts. That means the peace of God will be like an empire. You know, not an empire hotel where we go and have good food, but it's an empire for, you know, when you play some games, football match, ball match. So it means that the rule means an empire or to decide, to determine, to direct, to control, to cover. So the peace of God in your heart acts as an empire. And the empire, what does he do when he's empiring a match? What does he do? He directs, he's making sure that everything is going the right way. You know, he's a deciding factor, right? Whether the game is being played rightly or not. So the same way, the peace of God is like an empire for us. Okay. So which means that if you're saying God, this is the right thing for me to do. You can't hear an audible voice. You can't see an answer. You can't get a vision or dream, but you will experience this amazing peace. That peace is an inner witness in your Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is saying go ahead with this. Okay. This is the right thing to do. Or this is the right way to do it. Or this is the right person for this. But if you don't experience the peace of God, then it's a red signal. Don't go. You know, if you're anxious, worried, there's disturbance, there's doubt, that means the Holy Spirit is saying, don't go ahead with this. Okay. So that is how the Holy Spirit is an empire, means the red signal and the green signal. When you have the peace of God, the empire is saying what? Green signal means what? Go, do it. Whatever you're decided, go ahead with it because that's a peace you're experiencing, a peace of God. But if you're not experiencing the peace of God, there's a lot of difficulty, turbulence, anxiety, then the Holy Spirit is actually revealing to you that you don't go ahead with this. Don't meet that person. Don't include this person. Yes, Sean. Yes. So when you're doing something wrong, Sean is saying, you know, when he's doing something wrong, there's a weird, freaking feeling. That's your conscience, Sean, that's telling you that, hey, what you did is wrong. What you saw is wrong. What you said is wrong. What you thought is wrong. That's your conscience. Okay. Okay. So you're able to understand the assurance within, see the assurance, peace, go ahead. It's a Holy Spirit giving the green signal. There's no peace. The red signal, you don't go ahead with it. Okay. So, you know, relationship to five was 16, 18 and 25 says, if we live in the spirit, we will walk in the spirit and be led by the spirit. What does it mean to walk in the spirit? It basically means you're yielded, submitted under the influence, under the direction, under the leading of the Holy Spirit. Okay. So when we are led by the Holy Spirit, we will bear the fruit of the Holy Spirit. Okay. Okay. The third one is desire within. Okay. Now, this desire is not an emotion, but is a Holy Spirit bearing witness in your, in a being, in your spirit man. Okay. It's Psalm 37 was four. Can Rin read that please? Psalm 37 was four. Yes, it says here, delight yourself also in the Lord and He shall give you the desires of your heart. It means, you know, what's the meaning of give? Give here means to put, to make, to cause, to bestow. So, you know, when we delight in ourselves in the Lord, then there are two things that happens. Okay. God puts His desires into our heart and also what is our desire? If it's according to His will and plan, He will bring it out. But when will God put His desire in our heart? When will He cause our desires to come into being, to make it, to bestow it, to see it into fulfillment? When? When we delight ourselves in the Lord. So remember I said, every promise has a command. What's the meaning of delight yourself in the Lord? How can you, how will, when will God be delighted with you? You obey God. When you walk in His ways, when you walk in righteousness and holiness, when you read His Word, you delight in His Word and His Word becomes life. Okay. And you abide in His Word and abide in Him. So when you delight in Him, the two things happen. What is the first thing? All your plans and purposes will, He will bring it about. He will give it to you means He will make it, He will cause it to happen. The second thing is He will also put His desires into your heart and He will bring about those desires. He will cause it to happen and He will cause those desires to come into fulfillment. Okay. So when we desire ourselves in the Lord, that's when He also births things. He puts things in our spirit man. He births things means He can birth things that are having a greater impact for His kingdom, for the church, for the body of Christ. He will birth in you. You want to be an apostle, a prophet, a pastor, a teacher, whatever. He will birth it in you. But when will He birth it in you, when you are a one who is delighting yourself in the Lord? Okay. Look at the Proverbs chapter 10, verse 24 in your book. Okay. He says, and the desire of the righteous will be granted. Whose desires will be granted? Righteous. What's the meaning of righteous? Right with God. When you're doing the right things that are pleasing to God, you will right with God, right standing with God. And look at John chapter 15 verse 7. What does it say? If you abide in me, yeah, when will the desire will come about and when will it be done for you? When you abide in me and my words abide in you. So when we abide in God and His words abide in us, we follow it, we obey it, it becomes light our guide. You know, that's when the Holy Spirit will birth the plans and the purposes and the things of God. So sometimes when you're saying, hey, you know, here God has promised that He will birth things, He will tell us things, He will guide us, the Holy Spirit to His word, but I'm not getting any guidance is because we are not delighting ourselves in the Lord or we are not being righteous or we are not abiding in Him and His word is not abiding in us. Okay. So what are the things that qualify us for God's, our desires to be fulfilled and God to purchase desires is these three things which I just said. So the Holy Spirit through the inner witness in our spirit man, you know, fashions, puts, designs, brings about God's plans and purposes for our lives and also fulfills his desires and our desires that we have. But we must recognize that these godly desires are birthed in us by the, by whom? By the Holy Spirit. And then we follow God to see these things happening in our lives. Okay. So, you know, I'll just give you an example. Pastor has given a couple of examples here on page number 51, 52 and top of page 53. You can read all of those examples, but I'll just give you my personal example, desire within. You know, as I told you, you know, I felt sense that God was leading me towards children's ministry, even though I wanted counseling with drug addicts and alcoholics constantly, you know, I kept putting me into children's ministry, ministering in schools. So when I came back to buying low, you know, I was again working in organization that we're ministering to families. And then I, as I said that, you know, the director, he looked at me one day and said, Hey, you're so good with children, why don't you start a project for children. And so we started a project for children. We started in schools. We took it across to Kerala and Mumbai and Tumkur and other places. And, you know, at the end of five years, you know, I had to leave that place. Okay. And I left that place and then, you know, it was in the month of April. And in the month of May, I just rested because I was very exhausted and tired. And, you know, when in June, schools begin here in, in Bangra city. And, you know, June and school was the first of June, I realized, Oh my God, schools are going to be beginning. And I'm not going to go back to schools and ministering in schools, you know, and then, you know, this God knows my desire. Okay. And he's birthed this desire in my God, nothing God, no, I'm not going to go to be going back to schools. I'm so sad. I'm so disappointed. What do I do? And then immediately God is telling me, you know, go put in your resume into all people's, send your resume to all people's search. And then I go to the, you know, I get that website and I go online and check. And, you know, in that employment, there was nothing that I fitted into, you know, some of them required to be mad. I was unmarried. I'm still unmarried, unmarried. No, and, and none of those things that I fitted those criteria was not my area of expertise. I'm saying, God, I don't fit in anywhere. And he's just saying, send in your resume. I said, God, if I go for the interview, they call me and I'll be the first fool going for an interview saying, I don't know which post I applied for God just told me and I don't fit in any of those posts. They laugh at me, God. I'm going to say, send your resume. And I just obey. I send in my resume. They call me for interview. That's the first interview they had with all the pastors. And I answered all the questions and I said, God, if they're going to ask me this question, which post you applied for, I'll be the first fool. Don't make me a fool. Please. And, you know, they never asked me that question. I was way too shocked. They never asked me that question. After the interview, they found me good. And they said, as she said, you know, we have an opening in, in Ryan International School. You need to teach scripture. Are you willing? I just said, they're shocked. You know, I just could not even, even answer. And I'm just looking at him. He said, we have an opening in Ryan. And, you know, would you be willing to take it? And I'm just looking at him because I was way too shocked. He said, would you be willing to take it? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, yes. You know, and I came back with tears in my eyes. So you see, you know, when there's a desire within which the Holy Spirit births and you also have that desire, you know, he will bring to pass. He will guide you. He will tell you what to do. And they're actually in that employment page in APC website. They had not put this, this thing, you know, this employment open for scripture teacher assembly to start this whole project. So it's just amazing, you know, how God, the Holy Spirit leads us and guides us. So you can read pastors life examples, page number 51, 52 and 53 later on, we'll move on. The next way the Holy Spirit bears inner witness in our spirit man is the knowing within. We just know. Okay, to the inner witness, the plan's purposes, their direction and assignment of God is revealed to us through the knowing. Okay, for example, here is given acts chapter seven versus 23 and 24. You know, when, when Moses was 40 years old before he was near the burning bush when he's 40 years old, it says it just came into his heart, you know, to visit the children of Israel. It came into his heart to know that, you know, he was called by God to somehow deliver the Hebrews, the Israelites. He did not understand how it's going to happen. He does, he did not know how he's going to do. You know, he's not, he did not know how it's going to take place. But he knew that this was his assignment from God. He just knew. Okay, there's just this knowing inside. Just like I said, you know, when the Holy Spirit was guiding me into children's ministry, I just knew this knowing. This I just knew that this is where the Holy Spirit is guiding me. This is what God wants me to do. Now, I better not keep running away and ministering in counseling, drug addicts and alcoholics. He wants me to minister to children. So there is a knowing within. So the inner witness, the Holy Spirit, you know, he creates a knowing, a rising up within, just like for Moses. Moses just knew in his heart, this is what God has called him to do, even though he was the palace, even though he saw himself as a future pharaoh, you know, he was willing to identify himself with the slaves, the Israelites. And he knew that God is calling him to deliver his people. Okay, so sometimes the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, we know for sure this is what the Holy Spirit wants us to do. Okay, again on page number 54 and top of half of page 55 pastor, he shared his experiences so you can read that. You know, the fifth one, the Holy Spirit bears witness that spirit is to a prompting within. He just prompts us. Yes, there's a strong, this is stronger than the knowing. You know, we know the knowing within. Okay, the prompting is stronger. Okay, why is it stronger as a strong urge, with a strong, nudge in your spirit, not just to know, but to do something about it. Okay, and only when we are sensitive in our spirit, you know, the Holy Spirit prompts us to do some things to take immediate action. I'll just give you an example. In 2017, I went to the US to visit my two sisters. And I didn't plan anything, what I'm going to do, I just went there because I was totally exhausted. I just wanted to rest. And my, my sisters just planned everything. And my oldest that we do read in California, where Bethel churches and I love Bill Johnson. I was quite excited. She drove me all the way up from, you know, Seattle, Washington, where she stays to, to read in California. And I was very excited because I'm going to Bethel and I never imagined and never thought it was just God's orchestrating everything for me so beautifully. And we went on, we were not supposed to be there on Sunday, but they have a service on Friday evening. And then we were going to attend the healing rooms that they have on Saturday with people from all over the world come for healing. And so Friday when I went, I was so much expecting to see Pastor Bill Johnson, but I was totally disappointed because there was another lady from the prophetic school that they have Bethel prophetic school who came up and she was speaking about how to creative art through music to dance to drama to kids and, you know, just serving coffee tea or, you know, registration desk, how they can release a supernatural. I was like, no way God, you know, I wanted to hear Pastor Bill Johnson speak and this is this lady and I'm not this creative person. I have nothing to do with creativity. I was quite disappointed. And then she asked this first question when she came up, you know, who's come from the furthest part of the world. So all my people sitting around me, they, they, you know, started speaking to us before service started and my sister said she's from India. She's visiting. So they always shouting in India and then she said, who is the person who came from India? Can you stand up? So I stood up and she said, can you come up in front? So I went up in front and she gave me her book. And when I saw that book, that was all about creative, how to release a supernatural to creative ways, you know, to dance and to playing instruments and I don't do any of those. Okay. I'm not even good with the drawing and writing and all of that. I was like, God, if you can give me one theological book of Pastor Bill Johnson, I would have been very, very happy. I just took that book and she said, come back later. I'll sign on it and I went back and sat in my place. And then when she started speaking, she was just talking about how to creative things just to dance, how the supernatural is released to a painting. You know, somebody was, when they were having worship, you know, they paint and, you know, God releases a supernatural, they release a word of prophecy or they release a word of knowledge. And I just saw, you know, how people were healed. So, you know, one girl had just drawn brain worship time. She had drawn this white head eagle and she was releasing a prophetic word to somebody and also to all of them who were suffering with their stomachs, womb and I still stood up because she suffers with acidity and, you know, they just prayed and she said, I felt to release something, go out of my body and she was instantaneously healed. So, it's like, wow, just to a painting, you know, there's a release. And then I'm sitting and listening to her and then, you know, the Holy Spirit is just prompting me and saying, take this back and do it with the children. You know, start something called Kingdom Building Clubs and, you know, do this with the children. And I went back and I shared it with the children. I read this book, I was so excited. And, you know, the children caught it on and they led service one Sunday and it was just so powerful. You know, children painted and to the painting, they released a supernatural dance through the worship, they shared the word and it was just such a powerful move of God. And I didn't have to do anything, it was just supernatural, just by the Spirit. And yeah, there was this prompting within the Holy Spirit saying, take this back, do the same thing with the children and children's church. And we started, I started the Kingdom Building Club and it was so powerful, children just thoroughly enjoyed. And how it all started was just a prompting. The Holy Spirit said, take this and do it in the children's church, that's it. See, and it was just so powerful. Okay, so he can lead us to a prompting within, he can lead us with a stirring within. Okay, a stirring is when you really feel led to do something. Okay, so for example, here, we look at some biblical examples in Exodus chapter 35, verses 21 and 26, and in Exodus chapter 36 verse 2, you know, God was telling Moses to build a cabinacle. And you know, people just felt a stirring in their heart, they just started coming and giving all their gold and silver and clothes. And, you know, the women started using all these goats hair, they started yarning, stitching and making curtains and making all of those tents. And also, you know, Moses called Basil and Allotip and they were gifted artisans and God put, the Holy Spirit put his wisdom into their hearts and the Holy Spirit stirred up their hearts and they came and they crafted every utensil, every whistle, everything that was there in the, in the cabinacle. And how did it happen all to a stirring? If you look at your book page number 57, Exodus chapter 36 verse 2, it says, you know, they were stirred in their heart, you know, Basil and Allotip. And also, you know, everyone who came whose heart was stirred and everyone whose spirit was willing, they brought their Lord offering for the work of the cabinacle. Okay, another example we see here is in 2 Chronicles chapter 36 verse 22, in Ezra chapter 1 verse 1, I was talking about this, the Cyrus, Cyrus who was the Persian king, who's a heathen king, he's not a Jewish king, he doesn't know God, he does not have any relationship with the true and living God. But here we read in these two passages that his, the Lord stirred up his spirit. Whose spirit did he stir up? Cyrus, the king of Persia. Why did he stir up his heart? He stirred up his heart to send back the Jews back to Jerusalem, to build back the city and to dwell in their own, in their own promised land, because they were brought as captives to Babylon. Babylon was taken over by the Persians, King Cyrus came and God stirred up his heart after the 70 year period. This was a heathen king who did not even know God, but God can even work in the hearts of leaders, authorities to carry out his purposes. Okay, so he can stir up their hearts. Look at Nehemiah chapter 1 verses 1 to 4. What happened to Nehemiah? Who is Nehemiah? He's a cup-bearer to the king, he also builds the walls of Jerusalem. Okay, when he was a cup bearer to the king, some of his friends came back from Judah and Hanani, one of his brothers, told him the walls of Jerusalem is broken down. And what happened to Nehemiah when he heard that? He was so broken in his spirit and his heart, he started weeping and mourning and fasting and being in sackcloths and he mourned for so many days. And what did he do? He got stirred up his heart. How do we know God stirred up his heart? Because it says in Nehemiah chapter 2 verse 12, he says, I told no one what God had put in my heart to do at Jerusalem. So the stirring in his heart to do something about rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem, who put it in his heart? It's God, it's the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit put the plans of God in his heart and it stirred him up to an extent that he could not stay still till he did it. So sometimes we can experience the stirring in our hearts and we don't stop till we do what the Holy Spirit wants us to do. So we'll just stop here, we'll pause here, time is up. We will continue with this chapter but you can read the examples, real life examples of Pastor Ashish. What has been the questions of anyone who are on the students' side of the questions? Sorry for the inconvenience in having to break the questions for that. Okay, no questions then we will end here. Thank you all for joining us and I will see you all next week.
