There's a word that we're looking at right now, and that word is worry. We are not going to worry anymore. We're not going to allow worry in. We're going to press it out in the name of Jesus. Come on, brother and sister, wherever you are, will you lock down with me today?
And I'm not referring to that lockdown we had, I'm referring to the rugby scrum. I'm referring, let's lock down. Imagine that we are locked in. We got those beautiful rugby boats on. We've got the greatest studs in the world. They're long studs. We're digging in the word, the earth. We're digging in. We're putting every ounce of strain and pressure together. And we are locking down and we are gonna push that rugby ball over the line. We're gonna get it. We're gonna get it over. We're gonna push the devil back in the name of Jesus. Come on, will you lock down with me? Will you lock in a scrum with me? Will you lock together in the name of Jesus? We're gonna lock down and we're gonna push worry right back today because we can't have it no more. I don't know about you. I'm tired of my life of worrying about things. Things that never happen, the ifs, the buts, the possibles, the maybe's. Father, in the name of Jesus, we come to you in the greatest name in heaven and earth. And Father, I lock shields of faith together. Lord, I stand with my brothers and sisters. Lord, we do our boots up today. Lord, we change those studs for the greatest studs in the world. And Lord, we lock into this word. We lock into the word. Father, we get a grip of the word and we knuckle down, we lock in, we we hook together, Lord, and we start pushing the word of God. And Lord, oh my Jesus, we push it out of our mouth. Out of your belly shall flow rivers of living water right now, Lord. We push this living water out of our heart right now. Lord, we speak this,
Father. It comes up from our innermost being. Lord, we quote Matthew 6, verse 34. Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Oh my Lord, you're not wrong there, Jesus. Each day has enough trouble of its own. But Lord, I need this trouble to go. I don't want to walk this trouble, Lord. I know we've got to go through the refiners' fire, but Lord, I've had a little bit of enough today. And Lord, I want this worry to go. Lord, send your power, send your glory. Lord, we want to lock shields together around the world as Bible-believing believers. Lord, we're not worried about church.
We're not worried about ministry. We're not interested in the Razmatazia God of the showmanship on Sunday mornings. Lord, we want to get in the rugby scrum with brothers and sisters. We want to push worry out. We want to push doubt out. Lord, wherever we are across the world, Father, we invite each and every one of us to stand on the rock of all ages. And we believe in the power of the word of God. And wherever we are, from London to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles, dear God, to Kuala Lumpa, from Kuala Lumpa all the way to Sao Paulo, all the way from Saint Paulo, all the way to Argentina, Eritrea. Lord God, Afghanistan, Turkey, in the name of Jesus, Spirit of the Living God. We got to get it rid of this worry. We got to get it out of our being in the name of Jesus. And we come to you, Lord, raw and authentic. Lord, we will not allow this worry to drain us emotionally. We will not allow it to create spiritual fatigue. We will not allow ourselves to be drawn. Lord, we're going to walk in faith. The brothers and sisters, Lord, we lock together wherever we are, from the battlefield to the boardroom. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, Lord, we lock down together.
We say Amen, hallelujah. In the name of Jesus Christ. Worry is gone. Fear is gone. Doubt is gone. Uncertainty is gone. And we are born again, spirit-filled, blessed and highly favored. Brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. May the glory of God be over you. May the Spirit of the living God carry you to your destiny. Don't you allow worry to get in the way. You kick that out of the way in the name of Jesus Christ. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow, may the joy of the Lord be your strength. Come on. The joy of the Lord is our strength. God bless.
