Do you feel like you're being stretched beyond human understanding whatever your situation is, at this moment in time, the dead god above the heavens is with you. He is the God of Israel. He is the great I AM. He is worthy of all praise. And he is with you. At this midnight hours, you just rest as you'd be still, as you just trust in the King of kings and the Lord of lords, whatever your situation is. And I've mentioned that a few times, but there's been pressed on my spirit, as we just sit around these mics as we sit in the house of the Lord and whatever you may be doing at this moment in time, however you feel and however stressed you seem to be. God will make a way where there seems to be no way never give up. There is always hope, because he is the god of eternal hope. He is the God of glory, He is Jehovah Jireh he is Jehovah Nissi, Jehovah shalom, he shall supply all my needs according to Thy riches in glory, and whatever you may be doing, at this very moment, Allah if you feel stretched, if you feel weary, if you just feel that you're hanging on to the thread of life, there's one thread that we shouldn't be hanging on to there's one call that we should be hanging on to and that is the garment, the garment of the King of kings and the Lord of lords. Just like the lady with the issue of blood that she stretched out, she stretched out with everything that she had, and she stretched out, and she held on to the garment, hold on to his garment, you know that's healing. In the name of Jesus, there are miracles in the name of Jesus, He is with you. He will strengthen you He will guide you see will sustain you he will get you through the valley of the shadow of death as the psalmist says The Lord is my shepherd I shall not be on one on wherever you are, across this earth this evening. You are not in one because the king is with you. And when the king is with you, and the glory is with you and the anointing is upon you, you have everything you need, he will sustain you. He will strengthen you, He will guide you He will lead you. You know there are many of us that need lead in in our lives. There is many of us that need strengthening in our lives, whatever you may be going through depression and worry and doubt. And however you look across this platform of this world, God will never leave you nor forsake you. There is a beautiful scripture in Romans chapter eight it says nothing can separate us from the love of God. That is in Christ Jesus neither height nor depth, nor angels nor demons or the presence nor the future, whatever it may be. Nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus. So if you are looking if you are stretching out this midnight hour, you've come to the right place. God is with you. He has your life in his hands. He is worthy of all praise. He will take care of every situation that you face, but just lean into Jesus so Father as we come to you, Lord in this midnight hour, as we gather around the world as we be still will know that you are the living God, as we still know that You are the King of kings and the Lord of lords as we be still and know that you are the great I Am father we lay everything at the footstool.

Bless our brother dawn this evening, Lord as He leaves us in the Word. And Lord as we progress, Lord in this time together through prayer, as we rest as we be still, Lord, reveal yourself to us, Lord, in Jesus precious name. Amen. James, thank you, Lord.
Donny Stockburn:Thank You, Father, God, that you're with us right now. This, there's no being on our own ever again. It will never, it's impossible for us to be on our own without God. He has promised that he will never leave us. And I would never mean some I'm sure you do, too. This evening, I was listening to Ben on the earlier podcast. And he said, Jesus had asked the question when this disciples were in that boat in a storm, and they woke him up and terrified of what's going on, even though they were cybers. itself. I woke him up. And he said, I asked him a question. Why are you afraid? Why are you afraid? Why? Where is your faith? Two questions there. But tonight, I was listening to that. And I was just been previously asked in God, what to speak about to know what to pray about. And suddenly came into my own mind. Jesus is asking us another question. His question is this. Why are you still carrying that baggage? Why are you still carrying that cinnabar? die for it? Why are you carrying it? Why are you bearing it? Why are you being responsible for it? There's a lot of questions there. But they're all very relevant, because Jesus has removed it all. And we no need to do that. We've dumped some time. So her guilt conscience will help us get rid of it. But nothing will get rid of our sin, but the blood of Jesus, and he's taken it. And the reason Jesus left heaven, was to set us free, is that not true? He laid his gown and his, his crown on that site, and came down here as a man in his knew what was going to happen. And it was only for one reason to set us free. It was all about setting us free. Christmas is about center three, Easter's about sinners free. His sacrifice is about setting us free. When When man fell away from God, God didn't abandon us. He made a plan. He made a plan and His plan was to set us free. He always wants to set us free to separate us from sin, because we can't get into heaven was sin. And his plan was to set us free. Christ this set us free. Why are we still carrying that baggage, or sometimes do it myself that's, that's a lesson I have learned. But after days and days of turmoil, and by an aching of suddenly realized Thalma carrying this, Jesus has forgiven me already. That the opportunity to make it up to someone who loves fended. He'll give me that too, in his time, but I must give it up to him. The whole script is screams at us. Give it to Jesus. That's why he came a fall to go we just pray that we will tonight, Lord, whatever we've been carrying about, perhaps for years, self condemnation, self guilt, false guilt, everything. That's the baggage of sin. Now, give it up to Jesus. Let's make sure tonight, let's let's make tonight, that new night, let's, let's say, From now on, I'm now going to carry what Jesus has forgiven me for. And I can tell you this, when you repent. That's the fastest prayer Jesus ever answers. God answers prayer, repentance, immediately. And so we're safe. I'll just want to read you a couple of scriptures that will help us soleus it's in one, John one. And then going down to chapter eight and nine, right? Assuming we have seen, and we do we know that I've done some to die. And it says here, if we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. But if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive all our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness Oh, don't clear it up. Might Assange come out and clear the darkness away for us? That's what it was meant to do. It took the blood of Jesus to do it. So let's just take it thankfully, there's another scripture up accosted chapter two. And what versus going on to chapter verse two, verse two, it says, And he himself is a propagation for our sins, and not at fourth for our heirs only, but also for the whole world. Amen. This is for a whole world. Thank you to his blood, can we deem everyone and he has removed our sins. And yet we still some reason rather don't cottoned on that it's gone, that he's dealt with it. And we've just stuck around with the baggage, worrying and worrying and worrying. Just want to take you to probably one of your favorite verses of mind as well. It's in Matthew 1128. This is straight to the point. And if you don't believe Jesus is saying to you put that baggage down, put it down. What are you carrying it for? And my blood enough to cleanse you and relieve you back and clear your conscience? Here we go. Right first 20 I been off this one to this. This is the one that funny awful. I'm not gonna hold out anymore alone. I can't resist that offer. Come on, says me. Enter you come to me. all you who labor and are heavy laden key fall? Isn't that what we're doing when we're carrying that baggage? All of you, and I will give you rest. Time Take my yoke upon you and learn from me. For I am gentle and lowly in heart. And you will find West. Yes, Lord, for your souls. For the yoke, I'll give you his light and easy to carry. He's taken all our sins, all the baggage, all the burdens, even death itself. He's demolished them. They don't exist anymore. So what are we carrying around? We do the devil's job for him some days. Lord, I just pray for forgiveness. Lord, I pray now, in that mighty name of Jesus that set us free and asked us while we still carrying the baggage, he's removed it. And so Lord, we just pray now, Lord, that you will dive down there into every soul. Every spirit is listening now, Father God, and given the true message of the gospel, that you have set us free. Yes, thank you free forever. We can never be gotten back. Salvation is not probation. It's not going to ever Knisley and I'm not quite depending on how I behave. Jesus's blood is removed all free everything. And we've got a claim that we haven't even got a record record never existed. This ours is concerned, we are righteous and holy, as we stand before God, the blood of Jesus has done itself Father God, this is for the whole earth as well. Father God we pray, Lord, even those who who say, Yeah, but now, even though I've read the scriptures, even though we know it's true, we're still saying, Yeah, but yeah, But Lord, I pray in Jesus name, that you will just get hold of her hands and, and take it gently away from him. As you said, in this reading your gentle humble and spirit, let them feel those hands of yours around him and float, persuade them, whatever load to put that Lydon down that burned down, put it down further, and come to invest in you, who is in your arms. This union with you is forever and ever and ever thought ago, which is thank you tonight, we pray that you will go through all those listening, Lord, and maybe not even aware that they are carrying the baggage. They haven't released it to you yet, Lord, it just put it at your feet. As this, as this reading says, Just give it to Jesus. Leave it there. That's why came to take away all our sins, and He has done it. The blood of Jesus has done it. So far to God we just asked you now again, Lord, do it tonight. Make this a new day in the life Father God might as a die when we really and truly understand what you've done, Lord, that you have taken those sins away far to God, and that you are with us forever and ever and ever. This is not a temporary affair. This is an eternal relationship with God, father and son, father and daughter, which is thank you for Lord in Jesus name. Amen. Amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Father, we just bless you tonight Lord, Father, we believe in healing. Not all those that just feel weary tonight Lord on their feet, the Lord, or those that just feel weary.

Reverend Ben Cooper:Amen. Psalm 93 verse one, The Lord reigns. Psalm 93, verse one, The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty. The Lord is robed in majesty his armed with strength. He is your strength, he is your refuge. He is a rock, he is your Redeemer. He is your King. He is your Lord above all lords, Lord reigns, the Lord is seated at the right hand of the Father. And He is interceding for all the saints and you are a saint, and you are saved by grace and you are a child of the lemma. It doesn't matter how I feel about myself, because the king saved us. The King of Righteousness, the great I AM, he is worthy of all praise. And whatever you think about yourself, God loves you. However, you are beating yourself up God loves you. Whatever your life stretch may be tonight God loves you. He will not let your feet be struck against that rock, he will lift your feet up, he will carry you because he loves me, says the Lord. You know the Lord loves you. The Lord is worthy of all praise and you might be having trouble sleeping tonight you might feel the terrors of night in verse one, five sorry of Psalm 91, you will not fear the terror of night nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stops in the darkness nor the plague that destroys at midday. A few areas of spiritual warfare there, you will find the terror of night can stop you easily from sleeping. But I pray tonight as the psalmist also says that your sleep will be sweet. And as we come to the table tonight, whether you're tired and exhausted, and you are so exhausted, that you can't even sleep, you feel fidgety, you feel spiritually unrest. And you feel just completely washed out. I pray tonight that your sleep will be sweet in the mighty name of Jesus, I pray that you will find that eternal rest in the eternal God and I pray that you will come into the everlasting arms of the Savior of the world. And you will find a place to be still and know that he's God because He is your God, and He is your King. And he is worthy of all praise, He will protect you. Because you acknowledge his name, he will command his angels concerning you. Because of his unconditional love, you will not strike your foot against the stone, you will not collapse and you will not burn out. He will sustain you and he will strengthen you. In your weakest hour when you think that you're your weakest. It says in the scripture when I am weak, then he is strong when my body is about to foul, when my mind is about to explode when my heart is about to stop beating. When my hands me my strength are gone. When my knees are shaking when my legs are tired, when my back is aching when my mind cannot think when my cognitive processing starts to freeze, when my philosophy and thinking and natural logic of life is about to just disappear. God steps in. Thank you, you will not break. You will not stumble, you will not fall. The psalmist says I was pushed back and about to fall. But God God captured me and save me. I was about to fall backwards. I was about to slip. I was about to land hard. Come on on the floor. But God saved me. What the devil meant for harms God will turn for good. What the enemy meant for wickedness, God or turn for good. Where the enemy tried to push you so hard off of the cliff face of life. God will catch you. Yes. Trust Him in every area of your life. Trust Him in finance, trust Him in children. Trust Him in your workspace. Trust Him in your family. Trust them. to carry you, because he will carry you, and he has carried you, and he will continue to carry you. He will not tire, he will not be exhausted, he will not allow you to fall. Because he loves me, says the Lord, I will rescue when I understand what rescue means and the power within that word itself to be rescued by the God that created Heaven enough. I love the Old Testament where it says God says, I will be an enemy to your enemies. So under his wings, you will find refuge in his presence, you will find joy, because God opposes anyone that comes against you. Yes, touch not My Anointed. The Scripture says, if you know that your Redeemer lives, and because he lives you can face tomorrow. Watch out anybody that tries to touch you. Anybody that lifts their hand lifts their hand to God. God will not be marked. God will guide you and God will lead you into new beginnings. Father, in the name of Jesus as we gather for communion in a few moments, Lord has that brother Donnie Lord takes us Lord to the bread into the wine. Father, as we just lay everything out across the table tonight, and say, Lord, a wretched man and my thank you, Lord, by the power of redemption, and the Living Word and by grace and mercy, sanctification, justification, and by unconditional love. Amen. I'm saved. My name is stamped in the Lamb's book of life. My name has been written by the King of Glory, with the blood from the cross of Calvary, washed and redeemed, covered and protected, lifted and restored. Thank you, Lord, hope beyond all home. Glory beyond all glory, sanctification, justification. And as Donnie has just said, access through the cuts and because the cuts and has been torn, oh man, because Jesus said it is finished. We, as Don just said, wearing yes, we're in before we even understood what a word in means, before your lips were created. And he was in before that temple cut and was actually torn. Up was already in. Before Christ went to the cross. He was already in because redemption has always been the redemptive plan of Jesus Christ. But we see the active progression of salvation through Christ Jesus, come into this earth, in the physical form as a human being, being now to the cross of Calvary, us already saved. You was already washed in the blood of Jesus. Predestination, you was predestined, before time when the time exists. Only God knows. You belong to God. You don't belong to this world. The government don't own you. Your family don't own you. You was created for his goodwill and his good pleasure and his good purpose. So you're his. You are marked and you are sealed with the blood of Jesus. And nothing can separate you from the love of God. That is in Christ Jesus. Romans eight verse one, there is now no condemnation for those that are in Christ Jesus, because what the law was powerless to do. God did. I love that Jesus God did by sending His one and only Son, Whosoever shall believe in Him, shall not perish but have everlasting life. John 316, Romans eight verse one you're in because of the blood, you're saved because Christ went to the cross of Calvary. Brother Donnie is going to break bread for us and take us to the cup this evening, or this morning, or wherever you may be. Thank you, Jesus.
Donny Stockburn:Yeah, Another one there, Ben, as US reciting the scriptures isn't the one our like is, is there is no condemnation of now for us who are in Christ, there is no condemnation. It doesn't exist. It's been taken away from us. Jesus didn't just atone for sin. He removed it is no, no, no nothing to be condemned for. We've got no record of sin. Thank you, Lord. Amen. Thank you, Father God. And I just want to read you one scripture, really got me this morning, walked me and it's, it's, I used to be in a merchant navy, I know what an anchor is. The anchor, it says the anchor is sure and certain. Our hope is showing certain it's not a hope. So it's a sure and certain hope. It says the anchor, this is Hebrews six, verse 19, to 20. I've got it written down by man thanks to you. It says we have this certain hope, like a strong unbreakable anchor, holding our souls to God himself. He like I love it. Lovely. Our anchor of hope is fastened to the mercy of the heavenly realms beyond the sacred threshold. How hearts are anchored to God, how souls and spirits are anchored to him. Since it's like us, this is the word of God. It's not some guru or hippie saying this is God's word. This is truth that we we have this sir Nope. Like a strong unbreakable anchor, holding our souls to God Himself as the word of God. I love it. Love. Thank you cheers. You know, I need your new Lord. We would need strengthening with your word. And everything we need is in here Lord, Your word. Unbreakable unchallengeable Word of God. Father God, we just thank you for now in Jesus name, Amen. As we come loaded to this table, and we have our eyes on how it all came about how this all happened, was you did to bring all this glory in and bring us such relief, and afraid of Lord, freedom and, and favor upon our lives. Lord, blessings. Lord, I couldn't even remember all the blessings you've given me. It's too phenomenal to even talk about Lord. But Father God, I just thank you. And I praise you, Lord, you gave us your son, you gave him up to us. You gave him up for my sin, Lord, and that's the truth. And Father, God just come to that table now. Load and imagine myself looking at your face, and just wondering how it was all got saved, how it was, you loved me, how it was you? You got through all that? Rubbish and sin, the stuff that I had in my life and lowland, don't just pray, Lord, some way, somehow you will help us all right now, doing this community, Lord, to understand a bit deeper than we did before. Lord, your love, your mercy, Your Grace, your peace, your joy, your love, your everything, Lord, that you gave to us to take away our sin or we just take this bird now. And remember your body that was broken for us in Jesus name. Amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Thank you, Jesus. Thank You, Lord for forgiveness. Thank you, Lord.
Donny Stockburn:We tightness cup. In the same way we're gonna remember you Lord. Father God, I remember when I was a young Christian and lots of questions and got to the bit where it says, Jesus cried out from the cross, Father, why have you forsaken me? And I thought that maybe, you know, even Jesus got surprised. You have a bit of disappointment here for me, before I understood it. It was you taken our sins, and the separation was real. What would have happened to us happened to Jesus. He really did get separated from God, by our sin. And in that cry, Father, why have you forsaken me? It must have been the most harrowing cry this world has ever known. But to the people to us. He was the most blessed cry I mean outside Vash our salvation, it meant at that moment, our sins have been transferred to Jesus, all of them everything, the whole lot. He never left anything beyond bring it to me. He said, Bring it to me. No wonder he says, Why are you still carrying that baggage? And this is the blood to pay for all. This is the blood that goes by every single soul freedom that comes to him, along with his thank you for it. In that glorious name of Jesus, our Savior, amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Thank you, Jesus washed in the blood.
Donny Stockburn:I'll just tell you a quick story. One day I was working on the streets up the road. I sat down next to an old lady. She probably not in as well. Now her name was Pat. No, yeah. And she just sat there. She come out with the old people's home in a van. And she was just sitting on this bench with a shopping bag on her lap. And that and no cows and my Mac and things. And I said to him what you're doing here? She said just bit of shopping. And also what do you do at the army sell which is eat and drink? I said, Have you got the N bit solid out? She said what m bit. I said when you die? She said Oh no. It is dead in Yeah, you're just dead. Cause aloft. I said, No. You got a spirit. This is her for. She didn't even know that. Have I got spirit. I said yeah, you got spirit. I said, Do you want to go to heaven? She said, Yeah. He said just pi. And see, she was like that foof on that cos he died within minutes of repenting. And that lady there. She became a child of God about his repenting and asked in Jesus into alive. Yeah, I want to go to women, she said, and that was it. It's so simple in it. Repentance is so simple. As salvation come so quickly. Jesus died for this. And that was his love of Jesus is unexplainable. Lord, Father, thank you. I just praise you, Lord, for all those souls have said that, that Lord, come into my life. I'm sorry, Lord, that's all. Lord, I do pray again about this baggage Lord, I'll pray in Jesus name. Father, God, we will do it. This will be the moment. Look when we will say that little prayer Father of sorry for carrying the baggage that you've removed for me. Give it up to you now, or give it all up to you now, and I'll never do it again. Lord, I want the full freedom that you want from the Calvary. Lord, I ask this in Jesus name. Amen.
Reverend Ben Cooper:Amen. Come to me, all of you that are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest. Come to Jesus Hebrews chapter 12 verse to keep your eyes on Jesus, the author, and the perfecter of your faith. You know what we are 54 minutes in? Can you believe that we have done 54 minutes. We've just got a few moments before we say good morning or good night, wherever you are. God is with you. Let's never ever forget that Christ is the eternal King. King above all kings. So Father, we thank You for this midnight hour. We thank you for the time of gathering around the word for breaking bread together. But Lord, we pray Lord tonight that our sleep will be sweet. Yeah, Lord, that you will give us rest wherever we are tonight, Lord, that we will just know that our Redeemer lives and because he lives we can face tomorrow. Spirit of the Living God we pray, Lord, for those that are getting ready for work. And for those that are working through the midnight hour. And through the early hours of this morning.
