Let us share these powerful verses from John , chapter 14 , verse 1 to 6 . Do not let your heart be troubled . You believe in God , believing also in me . My father house has many rooms . If that were not so , what would I have told you that I'm going there to prepare the pace place for you , and if you go if you , if I go , a prepared place for you , I'll come back and take you with me . But just remember we're always there to lend a hand . Please help each other and just remember you're not alone . Just talk to a friend , talk to a neighbour and ask can I have some help ?

Speaker 3Amen , amen , amen . Thank you . Wherever you are tonight , may the Lord bless you and carry you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ .

We thank you for joining us tonight in the glorious name of Jesus Christ . But let's turn to Psalms 46 and let's get straight into the word of God . So we're going to go right now .
Speaker 3Verse 1 , let's look at verse 1 . Psalms 46 and we're in verse 1 . And it says here God is our refuge and our strength . However , help in present times of trouble . Therefore , we will not fear the terror of night , nor the arrow that flies by day . The earth gives way , the mountains will fall into the heart of the sea . Wherever you are at this moment in time , we want to encourage you right now in the mighty name of Jesus Christ . Let's get straight in the word of God . God is our refuge and our strength . We welcome those that are on different platforms , that are catching the servers or wherever we are streaming to at this moment in time , and we pray that the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit will be with you wherever you are at this moment . Thank you for joining us on RB Christian Radio . Thank you for those that are joining us on whatever platform you are listening to right now . May the Spirit of God be with you wherever you are . We're in Psalms 46 , verse 1 , and it says God is our refuge and our strength . You know our ever-present help in trouble . And it says come before you right now , and we just pray , lord , that the fire of god and the presence of the holy spirit , lord , that you will just strengthen us and carry us right now , lord . So , father , we thank you that your word is ever power , your word is alive , sharpen and the double-edged sword . But right now , father , we need you , lord , in our lives and we need you to god , to be our refuge and our strength . So , lord , we sit before you , we stand before you . Lord , we are here tonight , lord . Feel , lord , that you will touch our lives in the name of Jesus , because you are our refuge and our strength . Father , I just pray , lord , for everybody in the world of radio , everybody on live stream , wherever people are tonight , lord , that they will feel that they are not alone . In the glorious name of Jesus Christ , come on , we're in Psalm 46 , verse 1 , and we want to welcome all those in the world of podcasts 46 , verse 1 . And we want to welcome all those in the world of podcasts . We want to welcome all those right now that are on live stream , wherever you are . I'm just waiting a moment and then we will get going . In the glorious name of Jesus Christ . But we're in Psalms 46 . Psalms 46 , verse 1 . God is our refuge and strength . Wherever you are at this moment . The presence of God and the Holy Spirit is with you right now . And I want to tell you tonight I want you to be encouraged tonight that the presence of God is with you .
You are not alone . You are not alone . God is with you .
Speaker 3Yes , it might feel really scary , it might feel really uncertain . We are watching the UK make some serious decisions that we never thought we'd ever see or understand , and we know that we're under a government that is completely not for God in any which way , shape and form . So what do we do ? We got to make sure that we get into Jesus Christ . We got to make sure that we get into the word . We got to make sure that we stand at the cross of Calvary and we come before our God and our King . So , wherever you are at this moment , it is critical critical for each and every one of us that we realize that God is our refuge . God is a place where we go .
Speaker 3The word of God this is the issue that we have across this nation . You know , many , many church leaders and many leaders within the church are literally biblically illiterate Literally . That is the fact of the matter . You know , we really need God to raise up leaders . We need God to raise up leaders that will carry us through the word of hope and through the power of the Holy Spirit . We are really , really longing . We are in a serious , critical mess , I would say . Within the UK . We really need the Father to stretch down from heaven and to carry this nation .
Speaker 3The leader that we have within this nation is saying some very strong and some very powerful things against the Bible . And what do you mean by that ? Through the simple decisions that are being made through Parliament and through Number 10 , downing Street , we are watching this nation slide further and further away from the Holy God . So it is time for you and it is time for me to keep in the Bible , because we have got to find strength in the Word of God . We've got to come to these God . We've got to come to these scriptures . We've got to find that God is our refuge and our strength . He's an ever-present help in trouble . Wherever you are at this moment in time .
Speaker 3If you live within the UK , you know this is critical for us all , those that live in the UK at this moment we have a leader that is completely against the word of God . He says he goes to church . He says he goes to this church , that church , whatever church he goes to , it cannot be the church of Jesus Christ , because the man doesn't know the Bible , he doesn't understand the implications that he has done . What he has said over the last few days regarding Palestine and everything that's going on and just the other things that are going on . We have really got a leader that doesn't know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour . So what we've got to do , we've got to ask God to move powerfully . We've got to ask God to do a great work in our lives and we've got to pray that the Holy Spirit will lead us deeper in a relationship with him , because we've got to understand that God is our refuge .
Speaker 3We cannot rely on human source , we cannot rely on the situation of the church , we cannot walk in what the world is offering . We literally have got to come to the word of God . This is a time when we've got to embrace the scripture because the church isn't giving it to us , the preachers are not giving it to us . You know , there's a lightness . There's a lightness in the preaching . The preaching isn't deep enough , it isn't spiritual enough , it isn't steeped in theological understanding . We need preachers to be raised . You know God has got to lift up . You know God has got to lift up preachers .
Speaker 3Within this nation we are literally biblically illiterate . We need the Word of God , we really need the power of the Holy Spirit . We need the Father , the Son , the Holy Ghost . And it is now time for each and every one of us to strengthen ourselves in the Lord , just as David did when he had that conversation with God . And God told him you know , stop crying , now time to rise up . And the Bible says that David strengthened himself in the Lord .
Speaker 3It is critical . I keep repeating it because it is absolutely so important that we get straight in the word of God . We've got to get right in the scripture . We've got to get in the word of God , you know , you've got to get in Psalms . You've got to get in the Psalms . You've got to get worshipping . We've got to get praising our God .
Speaker 3We are living in times when we never thought we'd see a government declaring what they're declaring and really really important . We've got to get in the Word of God . It has to be the Word of God . There is no other way . It's got to be the Word of God . It's got to be the power of the Holy Spirit . God is calling you to Scripture . God is calling you to a greater calling . God is calling you right now , wherever you are , to walk in the Word of God , to lift the Word of God up , to sit in the Word , to pray through the Word . It is scripture . It is the only way forward that we will see a miracle . Now , as we get into the Word , we are really seeing the true colours of Number 10 down in street parliament . We are seeing how they react to Israel , palestine . We are listening to things that we probably never thought that we would listen to , but actually it just confirms that the word of god is correct .
Speaker 3So yesterday the uk , australia and canada made some serious announcements . I've got to be extremely careful what I say , so I won't say it . You can find it across the socials , it's everywhere . So we need to make sure that we need to cut all ties from the uk spiritually . We need to make sure that we are not involved in the political agenda . We've got to make sure that we're not involved in the area of politics any which way shape . We've got to stand on the gospel of hope . There is no other way . The politicians can't help us . They are literally taking this nation , this country , away from the cross of Calvary .
Speaker 3What we need are preachers to rise . What we are needing is leaders within the church . We need the church to rise , but the church cannot rise
without the preachers and the teachers . We cannot rise without the gospel of hope . You know we are really in a desperate situation , but this is for the individual tonight . This is for you . This is for those that are listening , for the Bible believing believers to hold on to the gospel of hope , because God is with you and the power of God's word is in your heart .
Speaker 3This is what the Bible says in Psalm 46 , really important . It says God is our refuge and strength . He's a place where we go to . He's a place where we find strength . It is the word of God . There is no other place on earth where we will find strength and we will find help . It is the word of God that will carry us through every situation . God is our refuge . He's a place where we find hope . He's a place where we find certainty . He's a place where we will find love and restoration .
Speaker 3It is only through God , it is only through the power of the Word of God , that we have any chance in coming out of the sewer which this government is putting us down . You know , they literally have just put us back down the sewer , closed the lid and screwed it shut tight . We really need a miracle in this nation . We are really facing the God of Israel , the father of Isaac , jacob and Abraham , and this is a time when we really need the power of the Holy Spirit to speak to us as a nation . We need God to take us to the place called the cross of Calvary , and you know we are living in critical times . It's really sad to see that we have a government that is leading us away from the cross . You know they talk about very clearly . They talk about , yes , that we got Christian values where we haven't , because of what the actions of number 10 is doing . So we've really got to seek the Father's heart . There's no other time on planet Earth where the UK , whatever nation we are called at this moment in time , whatever title we got on us , there's never been a time when we are really lacking the Father .
Speaker 3The Father , we are lacking God , we are lacking the power of the Holy Spirit within church , within life , every area . Certain churches are growing and the social church will grow , you know , because everybody's looking for an outlet to socialize , Everybody's looking a place to socialize , everybody's looking a place to befriend people , a place where they feel comfortable . But , brother and sister , we can't feel comfortable in a nation that is really , really completely against God . We really got to press in to the word of God . So , wherever you are tonight , I pray for Psalm 46 , verse one , over your life , that God is your refuge and he is your strength , because this is a time when we need strengthening as human beings , as Bible believing believers . It's a time when we've got to get right into the Scripture , when our reliance and our hope can only be in the Eternal Father . There is only one way , and his name is Jesus . He is the way , the truth , the life . No one comes to the Father except through me . But , brother and sister , it is the hour , it is the moment when we've got to get in the Word of God . You know Psalm 46 , verse 1, . God is our refuge .
Speaker 3We need this place of security . We need a government that will lead us to the cross . We need a government that will show us the way , the truth and the life . We need leaders that will stand up in the church , in business , in culture . We need a voice . We are lacking a voice . We are a nation where we have no voice . The people in this nation doesn't have a voice . It doesn't matter where you vote , it doesn't matter who you vote for . There will be no significant change in government whatsoever . There will never be any change .
Speaker 3We are in a spiritual crisis and we are trying to deal with a spiritual crisis , a deep spiritual crisis . We are trying to deal with a spiritual crisis with a political answer . A political answer cannot deal with a spiritual crisis , the only way that we are going to get out of the sewer that the government has put us in and to bust the lid off the top of the sewer is , literally , is to pray . Now is a time to pray and to get in the word of God like we've never got in before . You know , church is great . It's got its good days , its bad days , its ugly days , you know . But at the end of the day , church is not going to make it if we do not , if we do not get into prayer as individuals .
Speaker 3I know for those that are in this house , I know for those that are absolute prayer warriors , and we've got prayer meetings here , there and everywhere . But it is really critical for us as an individual now . You know , keir Starmer has really made it clear yesterday he has partnered , very , very clear who he's partnered with , and we really need the power of God in this nation . You can feel the temperature , you can feel the heat , you can feel everything that is going on . I'm really urging you right now that you press into the word of God .
Speaker 3It is now time to get that Bible open . You know , put the phone down . Don't do it on a phone app . I would encourage you to read it , because what we have with the phone , the phones are distractive . They will take our attention . Emails will come through , texts will come through , social media will flick up and down . You know the news feed here , there and everywhere , everywhere . It is really time to seek the father's heart , to seek the heartbeat of god and to really look into christ , because it is now a time that we need to find god , our father .
Speaker 3We are lacking fathers in this nation . We are a fatherless nation in many , many areas . You know the bible says our father , who art in heaven , we need the Father , we need the spiritual Father , we need God to deal with the church . The church really needs , you know , to get into the scripture . It is critical .
Speaker 3You know it feels really sad tonight for what the government has said yesterday and what they're partnering with and what flag ? We understand what flag Kirsten is flying and it isn't the union , jack , certainly . And it is not the flag of israel . We understand that the flag that he is flying , you know , is not , and it's got to be extremely careful how we present this tonight because of of all the implications that we could be in . So we've been really , really careful , but we need to pray . You need to pray for your family , your friends , people around you , because we are seriously in a spiritual crisis . We have never hit the wire like we've hit it right now . You know , we're at a critical point in the UK where we need the hand of God , we need the Father's heart , we need to listen to the plan of heaven , we need to get in the rhythm of the word . The only way that we are going to see victory is literally through the power of God and through the power of prayer .
Speaker 3So , wherever you are , I want to encourage you tonight as an individual . I want to encourage you tonight to get yourself a Bible . If you need a Bible , find us on RB , christian Radio , hit us up here in the studio , send us an email and we will get you a Bible . It is the only thing that we can do here anymore now is to give you a Bible and we've got to pray that .
Speaker 3The UK schools and I'm telling the kids and the parents across the airways it is really important that wherever your child goes to school , to ask the teachers , to ask the system to make sure that there are Bibles in the classroom , to make sure there are Bibles to hands , to the children , because we have hit a spiritual crisis . So if you've got children at school , I would encourage you to ask the teachers , send a polite email and just say can you confirm that my child has an access to a bible ? You know , not , not a pink one , not a rainbow one , a lit , an actual chronological bible , the nivIV , the ESV , you know , whatever you read , just make sure that your child has an access to the Bible , because we have a government that is turning our children away from the Word of God and Psalm 46 , verse 1 , it is critical . God is our refuge and strength . Wherever you are , whatever children you got in the pocket of your life
, I would encourage you this at this time of year , you know , rather than the games and the situation and Christmas arising , make sure that all the children in your family have a Bible at Christmastime . Whatever you do , you know it is critical . I believe from all my heart that we must tell the children you know , because the generation that is rising , they don't know the word of God , they don't know who Jesus is . It is really important that we have a lost generation , the gaming generation . We have a generation that spends more time on social media . We have a generation that spends more time on the Xbox and all that sort of stuff . We need to give these children Bibles , because we need to make sure that the generation below us knows jesus christ as their lord and savior . It is critical I'm using this word a lot tonight , the word critical because we are at a spiritual crisis .
Speaker 3We are here in this uk government make some decisions that are outside of the word of god . We are a nation that is in crisis . We have financial crisis , we have health care crisis . We have many crises happening at this moment in time and let me tell you it's really important for us to understand that this government will not take us to the cross of calvary . They will not take us to the scripture . This government , even though mr starmer says that he goes to church , he is biblically illiterate . He doesn't know the understanding of what he said , what he has done , what he has partnered with , what he said yesterday . I pray that God will save that man and God will have mercy on this government , because this government is taking us away from scripture . They are taking our children away from the word of God . They are taking young adults away from the word of God . They are taking young adults away from the word of God .
Speaker 3We are at a place where we really need the power and the glory of God and we can't rely anymore on the church . You can't rely on church . You might have a nice church you go to on a Sunday and it might be nice and lifted up and you get a nice word and it might just make you scratch your back for a while . But we need more than that . We need to get ourselves in the scripture . We can't rely on Sundays . Don't rely on me , please . Don't put any weight on me whatsoever . You have got to get yourself a Bible . You've got to get in the word of God .
Speaker 3The Bible says in 1 John , chapter 1 , you know , in the beginning was the word and the word was with God . You've got to teach your children , you've got to teach your grandchildren . You've got to teach the people around you the Word of God . We are a fatherless generation in more ways than one . We are a generation where we are lacking spiritual leaders . Even when you look in the political arena , there are no strong leaders within the political , within that area of journalism . We really need God to raise up leaders that will preach the gospel of Jesus Christ . We are at a critical stage . I cannot emphasize this enough . Tonight I pray that God , that God will have mercy on this nation , that the presence of the Holy Spirit will not leave us .
Speaker 3And then yesterday we was in that scripture . That was really a harrowing scripture that we was in yesterday when we was reading about King Saul and was reading about David .
David was called into that place in front of Jess , his father and his brothers , and Samuel anointed him and the anointing
was on him . He was anointed and he was blessed and highly favored . He was a leader , he was powerful . God anointed him and God called him . And then we have crazy King Saul and it tells us that Saul was rejected by God and God brought an evil spirit to Saul . Now it's very , very interesting when we shout out the spirit of the Lord is over us .
Speaker 3We've got to make sure that we know what the spirit of the Lord is . You know , when you look at those scriptures , the church don't talk about it , the church won't preach about it , but there is that Jezebel spirit out there . There is a bad spirit out there . There is a heaviness over this nation and spirit out there . There is a heaviness over this nation and we have to ask ourselves what is going on in the heavenly realms . We need to pray like we've never prayed before . You know , you get get yourself into prayer , you pray to god , you get yourself up in the morning and you get in the word of god . Because we are watching this nation literally getting closer and closer to the flames of hell . We need the power of God like never before .
Speaker 3We are at a critical stage in this nation . We need spiritual leaders . We've got to ask God that God will raise up leaders , not out of the church , because we've got to be careful . What we don't want is religious leaders and religious leaders that are caught in the mechanism of church . What we need are Davids to rise , joshua's to rise . What we need are Caleb's . We need men to rise to preachers , and men and women to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ , to press the word across the world , because we need Jesus like never before in this nation .
Speaker 3You know we can feel the heaviness . We know something is going on . Church isn't having it anymore . Church can't cut it anymore . Church can't cut it . It's like some churches , like going to a karaoke morning .
Speaker 3You know we got to get in the word of God . We need the word , we need prayer , we need anointing and we need to break bread . And we got to get on our knees and we got to pray . God have mercy on this government . God have mercy on this nation . God have mercy on each and every one of us , because I've got to keep repeating myself . This is the drumbeat I feel that God is leading us to at this moment in time . God is our refuge and strength and ever-present help .
Speaker 3In trouble , we need the help of God . God has got to help us because we are in trouble as a nation . We are in trouble spiritually . We are in trouble financially . We are in trouble financially . There's the food crisis , there's this , you know . There's jobs . There's so much going on . The mental health is rising , the suicide drum is rising . There are so many things rising , but we cannot allow ourselves to get in a negative vibe . We've got to be up and we've got to be in the Word of God and we've got to realize that the Lord is calling us . The Lord is calling us to stand alone , not to stand with government , not to stand in the political arena , not to stand with the King of England , not to stand in any political agenda , but literally to pray , to pray that God have mercy on this nation , have mercy on this government .
Speaker 3When you look at what is happening within the UK itself right now we have so many denominations , we have so many denominations , we have so many things breaking out you know we can't afford . We can't afford anymore to come away from the word of God With what has gone on in the church , every denomination , what has happened in the church schools , what is happening through the government . You know I'm quite fearful of the wrath of God . I'm quite fearful of what God could do to this nation . When you look in the book of Daniel , when it tells us about end times , what could happen , it is really important , you know , really important , that we pray God , do not pass this nation by . God do not pass this nation by . It doesn't matter , it doesn't matter we , we got to make sure that we know jesus christ as our lord and savior . You know you can lift any flag you want on the street . You can lift any color on the street , you can do what you like , you can protest as much as you like , until the bible says until my people will humble themselves and pray and seek my face , then I will heal their land .
Speaker 3If the church now I'm talking about the church leaders if the church leaders are not seeking the father's heart , seeking the father's heart , the rhythm of heaven . What is god saying to this nation now ? What is god saying to the church right now ? You know , when you look at this leader that we have in number 10 downing street , we clearly have a leader that is an antichrist . He is not interested in any way , shape or form . If he knew his Bible , if he wasn't biblically illiterate , he would not have engaged in decisions that this government has made . He would not allow himself to go down that path , that slippery slope . So he might say he goes to church .
Speaker 3But it's no good to say you go to church . We need to know that you are born again , spirit-filled , blessed and highly favoured , and we cannot be biblically illiterate anymore . You know we can't waste our time anymore . It is a season where God is . We need to say God , we have mercy . We are in a critical season within the UK , but Psalm 46 is crucial for us tonight , wherever you are across the world , but especially us here in the UK . It says God is our refuge and our strength , a very present
help in trouble . Therefore , we will not fear . Though the earth gives way , the mountains fall into the heart of the sea . Though the waters roar and foam and the mountains quake , they're surging . You know there is a quake and there is a surging that we've never seen before . We are seeing things . We are watching the one monetary system . We are watching a one world government . We are watching leaders crisscross the nation . We are watching handshakes . We know that there are things going oncross the nation . We are watching handshakes . We know that there are things going on under the table . You know you are watching leaders across the world having talks .
Speaker 3We got leaders coming in and out of this nation . We are approaching and we are in the stage of a one world government . We got a one health authority . When you look at that , we're going to end up having a one military . And if things happen the way that the wind is blowing , you know we're going to end up having a one military .
Speaker 3And if things happen the way that the wind is blowing , you know we've got to really get in the word of god . We really got to pray that god will have mercy on the church in the uk . We can't just keep doing what we are doing . There will be a consequence . There will be a serious consequence if the church and I'm not talking about congregations , I'm talking about the leaders there is a serious consequence if we do not get our congregate congregations and the church back into the word of god .
Speaker 3It can only be the word , it can only be scripture . There is power in the word of god and we got to immerse ourself . You know there are lots of fluffy , there are lots of light , educational messages out there that make you feel good , a little feel good , but that's not enough . We've got to get in as individuals . We've got to get into the paperback version and you know what You've got to make yourself . You've got to get into Scripture . There is no other way . It's not going to happen through worship , I tell you . It's not going to happen through worship . It will happen through Scripture and prayer . It will happen through scripture and prayer . It will happen through scripture and through prayer . When you pray , when you call the things that are not as though they are .
Speaker 3It is about time that we speak over our lives , over situations , over things that are happening around this nation . I pray that God will have mercy on the UK . You know this is not a safe . The UK is not a safe place to live . You know , it's not because of yes , I understand knife crime , I understand everything is rising , but what I'm referring to it is not a safe place to live because we have a government that is under corruption , we have a government that is not leading us to the cross of Calvary , we have a government that does not believe in Matthew , mark , luke and John , and we have a massive area of church that is allowing everything to go on . So we got to be careful what denomination we're under , what preachers and teachers we listen to .
Speaker 3It is critical right now that we get in the Holy Word of God . There is freedom in the Word tonight . There is hope in the Word tonight . There are blessings in the Word tonight . Wherever you are across this nation and across this world , all I can do is just encourage you and tell you to open up your Bible . Open up your Bible and get in Psalms . Get in Psalm 91 , psalm 23, . You know , read Psalm 46 , get in the word and then get into the gospel of John . Get into the gospel of John , read John , the love of God , the power of the gospel , and then get into creation .
Speaker 3We've got to understand when we get a grip of creation , we understand redemption . When we get into Genesis , we understand redemption and hope and the redemption plan of God . You know we are redeemed . Let's just remind ourselves . Just take one moment . As we come to the table of the breaking of bread tonight , we've got to remind ourselves that we are born again Christians and I'm being very careful how I use that word as well Christian .
Speaker 3There are too many people using the word Christian . I've got to let you know . I'm a sinner saved by grace , I'm blessed and highly favored . I'm wonderfully , I'm fearfully made , but I am born again . I am a born again believer . So I've got to be careful how I present the word Christian . You know , I've got to be extremely careful how I use the word Christian . Keir Starmer says he's a Christian , but then he's making decisions that are against the word of God , critical decisions . He is taking people away from the cross of Calvary . We have churches saying that they are aian church and they are allowing certain teachings and they are allowing a certain demographic and a certain thing to happen within the context of church .
Speaker 3It's time to break away from church , to cut the umbilical cord , and it is time to get in the word of god to get in the kingdom . You know we have so many churches in the uk . If I said to you , go to church , I I don't know what church for you to go to . Honestly , I do not know if someone comes up to me and says , pastor Ben , you know what church ? I don't know , I don't know . It's very scary to think that it is very difficult now to say what church to send someone to . All I can tell you to do is get in the kingdom of God and get yourself in prayer and get yourself in the Bible , get yourself in the word of God . That is the best that I can actually tell you . You know , have a break from church . Don't keep searching for church . Search for Jesus while he may be found .
Speaker 3The Bible is extremely clear that we are living in a very prophetic window at this moment in time and if the body of Christ and if the church in the UK and if the leaders do not start to flick the coin of hope , suddenly that prophetic window will close . And the question is will this nation make it ? That is the question Will this nation make the tsunami wave that is coming across the world ? We are in a critical place as a nation . We have again a government that is denying jesus christ . We have many church schools denying jesus christ . We have many churches denying jesus christ as their lord and savior . We need god to raise up biblical leaders that will stand on the gospel and preach the word of God like we've never seen it , like we've never felt it before , that we feel the thunder of heaven through the preachers and the teachers . We need our God . We are at a critical stage .
Speaker 3We're going to come to the table right now and I want to invite you , each and every one of you , wherever you the table right now , and I want to invite you , each and every one of you , wherever you are scattered across the world . I want to invite you to get yourself a bit of bread , get yourself a bit of grape juice or a bit of wine , whatever you've got , because we need this . We are at this point . The UK is at a serious point . We've never been this low before . We've never been this weak before spiritually . You know it feels like we've been thrown to the dogs . It feels like we've been thrown
to the locust . We got to pray and I pray that God will strengthen you . You know there's a lot of anxiety about , there's a lot of fear about , there's a lot of uncertainty about , but when you know who you are , see , this is what has happened Very clearly , the church has not given us our true identity of who we are .
Speaker 3We have lost the understanding of who we are as a nation . We have lost our understanding of who we are spiritually . And then that comes down . The timeline of the church hasn't revealed and shown us how to live in a spiritual battlefield of what is happening , we are literally on the planes of warfare like we've never seen before In the heavenly realms . We are watching and experiencing warfare in the heavenly realms . You know , the temperature is hot , the presence is heavy , there is a heaviness , people are tired and weary and exhausted and worried and not sleeping at night . The days are running away . We are watching a globalization happen before our eyes . We are watching shops shrinking off the streets . We are watching banks suddenly disappear into the vapor . We are watching schools slip down the tubes . We are watching things happening .
Speaker 3This nation is in need of a breath of God . If God does not breathe over this nation , if God does not breathe , I would not like to say what is going to happen next . So I need to encourage you tonight to get yourself a Bible before you go to church . Get yourself a Bible , open up the word of God . We're coming to the table now and we need to pray and we need to ask God that he will have mercy over this nation , that God's saving grace , his mercy and his love will move so powerfully over this nation . Dear God and Heavenly Father , as we come to you tonight , lord , father , we come with a heavy heart . Lord , we ask you , father , that you will cut , lord , our ties with number 10 Downing Street . Lord , that we will not partner with what is happening in the political agenda . Lord , that we will not , lord God sign and we will not stand , we will not do anything that is outside of biblical truth to what this government is doing . Lord , we've got to make you our Lord and our God . We've got to stand on the rock of all ages .
Speaker 3And I pray for the listeners tonight across the world . I pray for whatever country they're in , whatever town they're in , whatever parish they're in . I pray that the love of God will touch their hearts , their minds , their bodies , their souls . I pray that the presence of God will lift them up . I pray for those that just feel really low in their spirit . I pray for those that feel crushed , lord , tonight I pray for those that just feel lost in world , in culture , those that are scared of the future , the present , the now . But , lord , I ask you that you will strengthen them in the name of Jesus , and that they will find your love , your mercy , your saving grace and , dear God , that you will move in their heart , their mind , their body , their soul , spirit of the living . God . I pray for every listener online . I pray for everybody on RB Christian radio . I pray for everybody on the social networks tonight watching this live stream , capturing this podcast .

Give us a government , lord , that will take us to salvation . Give us a government that will take us to redemption . Give us a government tonight , lord , that will save this nation .

Lord , oh God , time's running out . Sister and brother , wherever you are , father , I thank you , lord , for this bread and this wine that represents the body of christ .

Lord , please bring us to cross , please bring this nation to the cross of Calvary . Lord , bring every one of us to the cross tonight .
Speaker 3God , lord , it feels like there is an urgent call tonight . It feels that there is an urgent call across this nation where we are needing a redeemer , we are needing the savior of the world , we are needing Jesus Christ . Lord , god , please have mercy on this government , please have mercy on the church , have mercy on us tonight , lord , we need redemption , we need the power , we need the glory . Lord , you are our refuge , you are our strength , but , lord , god , as we are walking in a nation , as we live in , a nation that is for Lucifer .

Have mercy on me tonight , lord , please , god , come , bless this bread . Bless this bread tonight .
Speaker 3God , as we understand it's the body of Christ , it's symbolic to the body of Christ . Lord , carry us today , bring freedom . Come Holy Spirit , do your great work In name amen . Yes , lord , father , we need you tonight . Lord , god , we need you tonight . Lord , pour out your spirit over this nation . Lord , as we come to you . Jesus , father , stir us , lord right now , stir us , god , bring us to the cross and , lord , we need the blood of Jesus over our lives . We need the blood of Jesus over this nation .
Speaker 3Lord , it's no good us just saying this nation is a Christian nation , we got Christian , we don't follow the word of God . We can say what we like , but , lord , we need , we need this nation to be born again . We need leaders that will break bread in number 10 Downing Street . We need leaders that will make sure that the schools have Bibles and accessible . Lord , I pray for every child tonight , lord . I pray , lord , for every school that you will get Bibles in every school , father , bibles in every school today .
Speaker 3God Come , holy Spirit , stir us . We pray Lord . But , lord , as we take this , this cup , the cup of redemption , tonight , father , we thank you that we are redeemed , that we are born again . Spirit filled believers , pour out your spirit , lord , over this nation . Holy Spirit be poured out . Come , lord , lift the heaviness tonight , please , father , strengthen us , lord , wherever we are , and cleanse us in the blood of Jesus . Amen .
Speaker 3Listen to these words of this song a minute , you know , as you listen to this come Jesus , come , amen , in front of the judge , bring it to the cross , lay it down . It might be , it might be today . Yes , lord , thank you Jesus . We can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait , we can't wait . You know , tonight is the night .
Speaker 3Get yourself a bible , get yourself a word of God . It's critical , really , really important , that we get in the word of God . We're out of here in a couple of minutes and we're just going to pray . We need to pray like we've never prayed before . That God will take us to the cross . God will make it clear , the pathway clear for this nation , that God will take us to the cross and take us to the word of God , because we need the word of God in the schools , in the children , in the homes , in the workspace . It is the word of God , because we need the word of God in the schools , in the children , in the homes , in the workspace . It is the word of God . It's not worship , it's the word of God , because the word of God brings worship . It is the word before worship ,
it is the word before prayer , because the word is first and true worship comes out of the word of God . True prayer comes out of the word of God .
Speaker 3If you are struggling tonight , I would encourage you to go to Psalm 23 . I would encourage you to use that as your prayer . I would encourage you also to go to the Matthew , the Gospel of Matthew , chapter 6 , and get the Lord's Prayer and pray that Lord's Prayer as much as you can . And I would encourage you , too , to sing Psalm 23 . You know , paul and Silas were in lockdown . All they had was the Psalms , and they sung Psalm 23 . And that Psalm opened up prison doors , that Psalm broke chains , that Psalm brought healing . There is power in the Word of God , because the Word of God will bring freedom .
Speaker 3The Bible says the worshipers worship in spirit and in truth . See , we worship in churches in spirit , but what spirit are we worshiping in ? Because you need the spirit of the living God and you need truth . So we need the two . So , firstly , jesus says I am the way , the truth and the life . No one comes to the father except through me . So worship comes from the word of god . If the church isn't in the worship sorry , isn't in the word , it can't be in true spiritual worship . It's in music , it's in a rhythm , it's in the feel-good factor .
Speaker 3True worship comes from the Word and true worship starts in the Word of God . True prayer starts with the Bible open and saying Lord , I thank you for Psalm 23 . You are my shepherd , lord , you are leading me . You know true prayer , you know the Bible is so powerful . It is our source of prayer and it is the place of worship . We only need the word of God in our lives because Jesus says Seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness , and everything else shall be added unto thee .
Speaker 3We just want to say thank you for joining us tonight , wherever you are across the world I believe Alex is just going to say something . But wherever you are across this world , I believe Alex is just going to say something . But wherever you are across this world , I've got to encourage you this is critical to open up a paperback version of the Word of God . It has to be a paperback version . It really does . You know , it's great that we can get it quickly on the devices , but it has to be , it has to be the word , it has to be that place .
Speaker 3So I encourage you , wherever you are right now , and let the spirit of the living God just move in your life . I pray that you will feel love and mercy and favor in your life . Wherever you are , get yourself a Bible . If you don't have a Bible , we will get you a Bible . We will get you a Bible . We will get you a Bible . We will get you a Bible and we will get it to your front door . Wherever you are , we will get you a Bible . May God bless you and carry you in the mighty name of Jesus Christ . Alex , I believe you've got something you want to say .
Speaker 2Do we actually tell them or not ? Because there's something new coming , Something brand new coming to the church . All we've got to say is a fresh way to connect with hope , prayers and community is launching soon . The story is just beginning to walk this space more than words , more than music . Our new home is almost here . New look , some heart . So get ready . We'll let you know what it is .
Speaker 3Wherever you are across the world . We've got to encourage you right now to be in the Word . There is nothing more critical but to be in the Gospel of Hope . It has to be the Word of God . I cannot encourage you enough to get in to the scripture . So tonight , find that Bible in your house . Find that Bible and get in the holy word of God . May God bless you and carry you tonight in the mighty name of Jesus Christ .
Wherever you are across the world , may the spirit of God carry you . And just remind yourself we're in Psalm 46 , verse 1 , and it says God is our refuge and our strength and ever present help in trouble . God is with you . God is with you .
