We've been thinking about for the last year. You can listen back to it. I know that personally in my own I would say development and growth. In my eigenvalue, there have been words, and still there are words. And there are openbaringen and words. I can be on it for an entire month. I can remain on it a whole month. Listening to it daily. Dawijks naar luisteren. And even praying concerning it daily. And nog steeds dagelijks overbidden that the revelation of those words, or the word of that revelation, really reaches the deepest places of my being. That the openbading, the deepest pleasure of my weights, because that is how the word of God works. God is who it was for God werkt. It's not just entertainment to hear one day. It is not alleen maar it is not a source of entertainment that you in the world. No, it's material to work with. Het is materiaal om mee te werken. And I stand in some of us and sommige van ons, maybe the limitation we have seen in our growth is simply because of our impatience with the word. And sommigen van ons misschien als we ergens beperking zien in onze ontwikkeling and groei, kan het zijn misschien vanwege onze ongeduld dat we ongeduldig zijn met het word. We want to rush to new words quickly. We will snel naar nieuwe woorden, nieuwe openbaringen gaan, which is not a bad thing, and that is not slecht. But just make sure that the word God wants to establish in you is established before you at the level he wants unto your advance. But zorg for that the word and the openbaring that God will have totally niveau that is. For that you know the new word, or else you are just gathering information and it's not really doing anything. But anyway, I need to continue. We've got to go before time goes. Before the time's up for the time open. So we're still dealing with our priesthood. We zijn nog steeds bezig met het beter begrijpen van onze priesterschap. And I just want to draw your attention to the fact that the priesthood was related to the covenant. The priesterschap werd ingeschakeld of activeerd in verband of in verbinding meter verbon. With the old covenant. So it is the covenant that basically gave birth to priests. That as we know, right? There are much more to say about it, but let me just keep it out there. There's more there over gezegon, but let me totally for the sake of the teaching. But as in general, over the priesthood that is upheld in Israel, we see it was emerged, it emerged, it came as a result of the covenant. That came through that verb. So there was priesthood attached to the covenant. But the reason why I'm saying is because now with Christ, what did Christ come to do? What came Christmas doen? He came to introduce a new covenant. I came a new verb introduce. It took another shape. Because there was a different situation now. Want there was new in the situation. So my point is to understand that there is a priesthood we are in. We have to understand. Because we are children of the covenant, new covenant, to be specific. But then kind of the newer verbont. The priesthood's op is there. It's there. It's the revelation that needs to be cut, but it's it's there. It is an open body, but nature ook gefangen moet worden, but it is there. So there is a priesthood that is meant to function under the covenant that Christ came to introduce. So the question is: are we are we upholding it? Should we not state on that um hooging? Like, how do we not state in air? How we nogstate active the priesters have, or have we completely ignored the priesthood under the new covenant? Of have we the priesters under the new verb total? And that is sometimes in general. I'm not talking about our church specific, but I'm just speaking about the body of Christ in general. But over the lichaam van Christians, in the algeme, soms lijkt it so. Sometimes it seems like priesthood is not even something we talk about, consider or study. The priest school is iets that on the new verb lijkt alsof it is that we niet eens geïnteresseerd in zijn, niet in groeien, niet over onderwezen wordt, it's a bijzaak bijna of gewoon iets wat niet serieus genoeg genomen wordt. Yet it is a critical thing that is in Christian is because if the Lord specifically says that we are a royal priesthood, as the Heer specific says that wij zijn een koninklijke priesterschap, it's like how can we ignore this aspect of our identity? When he says, I have made you kings and priests, you have so we have been made kings and priests unto the father. Jullie zijn koningingen and priesters gemaakt to the father. Like, how can we ignore such a high statement? Hoe kunnen we zo'n hoge benaming negeren? All I'm trying to do, what ik probeer te doen, is voor us to enter into a hunger and thirst to understand and grow in this priesthood. The intentie waarmee ik dit allemaal noemen ben, is zodat er een honger in ons begint op te staan. Ik moet mijn priesterschap begrijpen. Ik moet begrijpen wat het inhoudt. Ik moet begrijpen wie ik ben en wat mij maakt in de geest and niet understand who I am and what that makes me in the spirit. What does this priesthood mean? This is what I pray we will be in, so that the Lord can continue to conversate with us about this and bring us high. And this is my bed that we're hard to here and zullen blijven, so that the Hearts deeper and deeper openbaring and gesprekken met ons can hebben, so that we gevestigd worden hierin. Amen. So we're still talking about. We have not zero priesters. We're still speaking about we're dealing with our priesthood. So what I'm even going to introduce tonight, what I forgot, it's still related to that subject. That is no state in verbinding method. And I'm just trying to follow the tempo I feel inside of me. And I feel like the tempo what I feel in my geese. So I don't want to rush through the scriptures and the points in a way that doesn't feel right. Dus ik wil niet haasten door de geschriften op een manier dat niet goed voelt, to make sure we understand, zodat we ervoor zorgen dat we het begrijpen. Now, the main thing I really want to talk about now, concerning the priesthood, is the presence of God. The hoofzakelijke punt of onderwerp of thema waar ik het nu over wil hebben in verband met onze priesterschap is de aanwezig van God. The presence of God, de aanwezig van God, the presence of God, de aanwezigheid van God. Now, before we go even into how that looks like within the teaching, voordat ik daar verder in ga en hoe dat uitziet in de onderwijsing. I want to just to have a moment to consider this reality. Ik wil het een moment nemen om even te kijken naar deze realiteit. De aanwezigheid van God. Iets dat wij allemaal geroepen zijn om te kennen. It's some something we are all called to know. The presence of God, de aanwezigheid van God. And the question I want to bring with it and the vraag that ik wil brengen is: do you know the presence of God? Can you aanwezigheid van God? And if you do, and as you can, which I believe we all and glory to God all can, is like are we how how dedicated are we to the presence of God? Hoe toegeweid zijn we to the aanwezigheid van God. And when I say the presence of God, I'm really talking about the reality of God that makes your spirit sense that there is the Lord is here. Ik heb het specifiek over the bewustzing of the besef in jouw geest. That you voelt in your geest, in your geest, in the diepstein van je wezen the Hear is here. Zijn kracht is here, Hij is here, zijn we here, the awareness inside of you that makes you just know something is like is going on here. The Lord is here. I sense his presence, I sense his power, I sense the reality of God in my spirit. Inside of me. That's what I want to talk about first. That's what I earn over here. Because the reality is the realite is that a lot of Christians have are disconnected from the presence of God in the spirit, in the geest. The realite is that vele christenen zijn in verbinding met de aanwezigheid van God in de geest verloren, They are operating out of an emptiness. Dus ze functioneren uit een leegte, right? They are functioning not from a place of fire of knowing. The functioner niet vanuit de plek van een fear en een geest of een aanwezigheid of zeggen dat de aanwezigheid van God in hem. En please, when I'm speaking like this, en when ik op deze manier spreek, never mistake the way of speaking as a way of condemning. Interpreteer no deze manier van spreken als een manier van mensen beoordelen of veroordelen. But it's all coming from a place of highlighting or pointing our direction, our attention to maybe areas of our life that the Lord wants you to consider and look at. So that He can continue what He wants to do in you. So that aandacht gegeven kan worden aan aspecten van ons leven of een gebied van ons leven waar de Heer wil dat wij nu meer bewust van zijn of aandacht aan gegeven, zodat hij verder kan doen in ons wat hij wilt. So take it from that heart, is neem it van that heart. Because in the same way it is being spoken to you, it is the same way it is being spoken to me. Want op dezelfde manier data boodschap naar jou gebracht wordt, is dezelfde manier dat het boodschap ook naar mij gebracht wordt. I am I don't stand above this, I stay niet boven dit. Alright, so the presence of God aanwezigheid van God. The presence of God enweesheid van God. The reality that our spirit is sensing. A realite that onze geest opmered. A reality that is beyond the physical. The realite that verder is dancing. And we all have experienced it and we kennen it all. And I was really grateful for last Sunday. Afgelopen zondag was zo machtig. There were moments where we could all sense that no, something is happening here. We had momenten waar we allemaal beseften van nee, iets is hier gaande. Like there is a power, there is a presence, the presence of God is here. Now, um, and we have had it many Sundays, but elke sondages, even in every Sunday actually. But I just want to draw our attention to that presence. We onze aandacht trekken naar de aanwezigheid. Because we were meant to carry this. We are geroepen om dit to drag, we are meant to know this. We are geroepened to kennen. We are actually meant to live in it. We zijn eigenlijk geroepen om erin te live. But the sad thing is that the position the Lord has called us to be in, His presence, even in the spirit, zelfs in the geest, to the point that our spirits are actually really in like really, really, really sensitive to it. To the point that our geest zelfs heel gevoelig is total. This is a place we have been called to operate from, and something we're all called to operate with. And it's where we geroepen zijn om mee to functioneren. That's sadly on gelukkig genoeg. It's something that sometimes a lot of Christians don't even know. They don't even know. The presence that we when we start to sense, the after that when we begin optimal, there is a peace, there is a freedom that starts to run through our system, that our system begins to penetrate. That starts to erupt from inside. That vanuit on the inner begin to strengthen. And at times there is even power, as craft, that we start to sense rise from within. That we begin to believe that vanuit us up begin to stay. Because now we are interacting with this presence of God, omdat we nu in a weighted van God zijn. And which now allows the Holy Ghost to flow. And that to that Hadigh begin to strengthen. There is a presence. The presence of God actually that should not be something foreign to us. The aanwezigheid of God is not iets that framed total. It's onbekend to us. It's not meant to be something unknown. Rather, it's meant to be our dwelling place. It's meant to be something extremely natural to us. That is bedoeld omit to say that so natuurlijk is for us. Because the problem is when the presence of God is lacking in a Christian, the only thing you will probably really have left is religion. Empty religion. Want de waarheid is wanneer de aanwezigheid van God in a persoon life, the manifestation of the bicep, of the ervaring of the aanwezigheid of God in iemand's life, verdwen is of niet aanwezig is. What you dance overhead is legal religion, which means that I'm just doing what I think I should do. I'm just following the rules I think I should follow. But the fire and the passion that is driving me is missing. But the fear and the positive that I am driving, that is I need. I know the songs, I can the leeches. And I sing made my deleches. But the reality is missing, but the reality onbreekt. That is when the presence, when a person or a child of God of a kid for God has lost his connection with the present, which is not where God wants us to be, and that's not where God will zijn. We are called to be actually children of his presence of his aanwezigheid. We are called to live there. We are geroep on that team in zijn aanwezigheid, in the spirit, in the geest. Whatever we might be experiencing at times on the Sundays, what we soms zelfs ervaren, dus op die zondag, that presence, die aanwezigheid. We are meant to carry it in our lives. Het is bedoel dat wij daarmee in dat wij dat dragen in onze levens. We are meant to carry that presence because again, remember, before I even go there, if we have it's a little bit premature, it's misschien een beetje voortijdig, but we just have in mind that you are the temple. You bent the temple van God. So God is in you, God is in jouw. So that presence must be known. The aanwezigheid moet gekend zijn. The fire of that presence, the weight of that presence, the vuur van die aanwezigheid, the gewicht van die aanwezigheid. Het is bedoeld dat je daar, dat je dat je. Het is bedoeld dat je dat kent, that you know that the weight of that presence. To the point that the Lord draws you deeper and deeper and deeper and deeper in the reality of his presence. To the point that you deeper and deeper and deeper trekt and brengt in the ervaring vanwezigheid. And in het kennen van zijn aanwezigheid. Where your spirit has interacted with the spirit of God to that extent that you know the presence of God, that jew geest zo vaak interactie heeft gehad, zo vaak de aanwezigheid van God heeft ervaring dat jij kent de aanwezigheid van God. En jouw ervaring ervan groeit alleen maar. En your experience of that presence grows. It's growing, it groeit. I really want us to consider this. Ik wil dat we echt hier serieus observeren of naar kijken: the presence of God. The experience of his presence, the ervaring van zijn wezigheid. The weight of it, the gewicht ervan. And realize and beseffen that we are called to, we zijn geroepen om daarmee te bewegen, daarmee te leven. We are called to carry it, to live with it. We are not called to be empty. We zijn geroepen om leeg te zijn. We are not called to live as if there is like emptiness in us. We zijn niet geroepen om met een leegte te lopen. No, we are called to be filled. We zijn geroepen om gevuld te zijn. That comes as a result of his presence. That comes as a result of zijn aanwezigheid. The moment we start to experience his presence, our spirits are filled. The moment that wij zijn aanwezigheid beginnen te ervaren, onze geesten raken vervult. It starts to literally calm us. Het begint in sommige situaties als ons letterlijk te calmeren. Anxieties, angsten, even insecurities, onzekerheden. Confusion, even, verwarring zelfs. And any other thing, even physical thing, like en any other thing that would actually be a hindrance that God wants to deal with, and all data de Heer me wilt handen om weg te nemen in his presence, in zijn aanwezigheid. In zijn aanwezigheid, those things lose their power. Die dingen verliezen hun kracht. These things they lose their power because of the presence. But there is a expectation and a call to live. Connected and carrying his presence. Maar er is dus een verwachting en een roeping, eigenlijk, een positie waar wij naartoe geroepen zijn. There is a position we have been called to live from and live with. There is a position waar wij naar geroepen zijn om vanuit te leven. And that is zijn aanwezigheid. Zijn nabijheid. Intimacy with him. Closeness. His spirit and our spirit zijn geest en jouw like the moments in church, even, and that's an example that we can use so it can be easier to tell. And there's a forward that we can gebruiken. Those moments in worship or in preaching or in even prayer. The moment in gebed of inbidding, where like it's it are sometimes it can be moments where you just you lose focus of everything because you're just focusing on what is going on inside of you. Your spirit is being touched, your geest wordt geraakt. Your geest wordt geraakt, and it is coming from a different reality, and it comes from another realite. It is coming from the spirit, it is the aanwezigheid for the presence of God. Now it is something not to take lightly, it is not iets that we licht moeten nemen, it is not something we must take for granted, even it is not each that we self for leave moeten namen, but we must see we must be like our heart must be on fire, must be desiring, like the present. We must be hungry for that presence. We must hunger for the reality, for the reality. We must be familiar, let me say that. We must bekend, and we have all experienced. It's not something literally new. It is not iets news for us. We all know this. I know we all know this because I've seen it. But I want to draw your attention to the fact, but I will jeandacht trekken on the fact that those experiences in his presence that we all at times we have together in church. God wants you also to have it in private in your home. God wil dat je die ervaringen ook thuis hebt if you privé in jouw eigen wedstrijd met hem. You are a priest called. You bank a priester geroepen to function in his presence, um te functioneren in zijn aanwezigheid. You are meant to operate. Je bent geroepen om daar te bewegen, te werken. His presence is your resting place. Zijn aanwezigheid, het is jouw rustplek. Zijn aanwezigheid, het is jouw omgeving, it is your environment. It is your position where you are called to be living from. That is the plek waar je geroep werkt om vanuit te leven. Zijn aanwezig. So when you arrive at a season in your life, when you arrive in the seizoen in your level where you are not sensing his presence the way you know you should, there is something wrong. Not here of thezelf functioneert in jouw, is er iets misgegaan. I want just to draw your attention to people like Moses. I will you aandacht trekken that men zoals Moses that thought God literally letters tegen God said, as you niet met on, if your presence doesn't go with us, as you aanwezigheid not met on, I will not take one step. We cannot fail. We can not fall, we can need naar beneden as the aanwezigheid for God met us is. There can be trials, there can be hardship, but we will overcome. You see, this is the presence that I really believe God is drawing our attention to telling us that Lateran, my sons, my daughters, my people, don't lose sight of this in private. In prefect. In your personal relations, in your personal, in your personal life, in your persoonlijke leven. You see, under the old covenant, onder de oude verbond, you had the temple of God, you had the temple of God. You had the outer court, you had the buitenruimte, noem ik het maar. You had the inner court or holy place. You had the, ik weet niet hoe je het zegt in het Nederlands, maar je had de heilige plek of the inner, like the plek na de buitenkamer. Dus je had drie gebieden. En het ging steeds deeper, and ik went deeper and deeper. The outer court, the inner court, and the holyest of holy. Yeah, die drie gebieden. Now, the point is that. And that four is the heilige plek. And you see, in the holy of holy, the deepest place, the heiligte, in the in the heiligste plek van allemaal, the deepstead, that is where the ark of the covenant was. That is where the Ark Desperate was. Of they called it sometimes the testament. Soms noemen ze the testament. That is where the Ark of the Covenant was. And then you had the holy place, not the heilige plek. Now, only priests were allowed to enter the holy place. It's a level of the presence of God, it's a level of the presence. It is a bepaal de niveau in the aanwezigheid for the bepaal deep in the aanwezigheid. For it's not the deepstead, it's not the deepest place, but it is a level of his presence. But it is a niveau van zijn aanwezigheid. Now, the priests, the priesters were the only one meant to function or to enter the holy place, the heilige plek. The middelste plek heb ik het nu over. And the high priest and the hoge priester was the only one that was allowed, die toegelaten was to the holy of all, the heilig. Die is the enige die toegelaten was een keer per jaar, once a year, to the holiest of holy, to the heiligsted, the heiligste plek where the art desert verbond was. But for like, I'm gonna end here. We're gonna continue the volume here in. The holy place, the heilige plek, the middle place, the middle plek, which is also a dimension of God. It was a dimension of God. Guess who was only allowed there? That is we alleen that toegelat was to the niveau vanweighet for God, to that dimension of the presence of God or the presence of God. Only the priests. Alleen the priests. So the access to God was limited, and it was even in categories. The toegang tots aanwezigheid under the oude verband in the temple was in verschillende categorieën. And it was not for iedereen die so fair mocht komen. So you see, under the old covenant, only the priests were allowed to the middle place, like the holy place. And the holiest of all the heiligstein was only reserved to the high priest. Alleen maar de hoge priest mochten daar komen. Dat was één persoon. But it gingen om the point is that it are all levels of the presence of God. There were verschillende niveaus vanwezig van God. At that level, only the priests could go. In the holy of holy, only the high priest could go. In the heilige plek mocht alleen maar the priests gaan. All the priests could have. But alleen maar in the in the allerheiligste plek mocht alleen maar the hoge priester gaan. This is on the outer forbond. But I believe it gives us an image. But I hope it gave us a beauty for what God was going to do under the new covenant. It set something up that he's in funding gezet. Because the high priest, the hoge priest, was only in the heilig to the heiliger gang. And the normal priest could go to the holy place. But what happened? Well, before I go there, for that too, so it's like there was a limitation to the dimension of God to the priest. There's a limitation of a beperking of a niveau, a niveau, a bepawn that the priests in mochten, and there was the hog, like the highest place, the deepest plaque was not for the priests must come, alleen maar the hoge priest. They couldn't go to the deepest place, to the highest place, only the high priest. So even though the priests were allowed in the presence, they were not allowed to the highest of all. Let me see if you're paying attention. What happened to that curtain? What could I to the gordine when Christ died and resurrected? What happened? I'm about to close. What happened there? What happened there? You can just put it in the chat really quick. Said in the chat. Let me see if you're paying attention. Let me see if you're on the under. What happened when Jesus died? Torn. Thank you, Sister Priscilla. It got torn. The separation got torn. The offscheiding, the Jordine scurred. It broke. It wasn't there anymore. What would that mean? What should that be taken? Because of time, let me just say it quickly. The access to the to the most holy place has been opened. Why? Because of the blood of the lamb. Waarom? For we had the blood from the lamb. The blood. Now we all to the where the priests could go, where the priests could, where the priests could only were limited to was now opened. A way was made to now the holiest of all. The weg was not open. The way was open to the holiest of all. So now, what was reserved, the separation, it is now taken away. What does that tell you? I mean, what beteke? What zegt dat me? The work our high priest did, het werk dat onze hoge priester deed, Christus, has opened the door for us to enter into the highest level of intimacy with God. Het heeft de deur geopend dat wij de hoogste niveau van intimiteit met God kunnen ervaren of gaan bewegen of wat wij mogen benaderen. So, what does that mean for you and me under the new covenant? Wat betekent dat voor jou en ik onder het nieuwe verbond? The Lord says He is looking for those that will worship him in spirit and in truth. He is aan zoek voorgene in geest en in waarheid zullen aanbidden. Those that know him in spirit, thegene who in geest zullen kennen. So, the point is, the point is this you are called. Kijk, under the priesthood, the priesters, under the new covenant, under the new verb. Within that new covenant, under the new covenant, there is no veil. Under the new verb, there is geen Gordijn. It has been torn, which means now the door to the Father, the door to the holiest of all, the door to intimacy with God on the highest level has been opened. That is geopened. So now, deep can call on to deep. We can commune and fellowship with God through a spirit. So now there is an intimacy we can have with God on the highest level. And there's intimiteit that we can have met God under the hoogste niveau. As priests now, as priests, under the old covenant, there was a separation. Under the new covenant, the separation is taken away. Under the ouder verbond, the priests, there was a scheiding, there was a beperking, it was a limitation. Under the new verb, the beperking, the scheiding is weggenomen. Under the new covenant, the separation is taken away. The priests under the new covenant can join the high priest. The priests under the new verb, they can join the high priest Christ. They can see voegen by the hoge priester. So in the holiest of all, in the heiligstein. In other words, it's simply talking about our access to God and the intimacy we can have with God, the union we have with God, the the the fellowship we can have with God, the gemeenschap. So I want you to realize this, besef this that there is a fellowship as priests, as a gemeenschap as priesters that the Lord has now opened for us. So the presence of God has been opened. The aanwezigheid van God is geopend. Because the blood, the blood of the Lamb, the blood van the lamb, has washed us clean, heeft ons schoongemaakt. Our garments are white. We were not worthy, we waren niet waardig, maar nu wel. So now, what does that mean for you and me today, in our present life? Does that betekent dat for ons in ons leven? Let us not neglect. Let we need negeren. Let us not neglect. Laten we niet negeren. Let us not neglect. Let me not negate that the Lord has opened the way to himself for us to be intimate with him. To know his presence in a way we have the mankind has not been allowed to have access before. Let us seek the Lord. Let's hear Ansuka. Let us seek his presence. Let us await. Let us as priest as pleasers, let us, let us move. You see, let our hearts, let onze heart desire his presence, verlangen. Because now from that presence, from now the aanwezigheid, direction can come, richting can come, strength, power, deliverance, like his love, healing, everything. But to live from the holyest of all, so it is a it is something we are called to live from. If we have neglected the presence of God in our life, as we the aanwezigheid van Here hebben genegeerd, it is time. It is time to embrace it again. It is time to umarmen. It is time to make time in prayer, seeking God, on God aan te zoeken. And it is time for us to go on our knees on the knee to go and say, Father, I want to know your presence. I want to know what is in your presence. I want to know the glory in your presence. I want to be intimate with you. I want to know your heart. Reveal yourself, open bar yourself. Let in allow my spirit to go deeper and deeper. Let me deeper and deeper in verbing with you to come to advance in our union, in our connection, further to get in our hand. Because eventually, as we remain, and this is where I will end, this is where I will either as we start to seek his face and his presence, intimacy takes place, intimate finds place as we be consistent with fellowship, where we consistent zijn with our gemeenschap and our time with the hearing. What is gonna really emerge? What can we ontwikkel? A friendship with the Lord, a vriendschap with the Hear. Because we are always in his presence, always in the weighted. Our spirit knows his presence. Our spirit knows the fire of his presence, the power of his presence. Our geest can the kracht van zijn aanwezigheid, the fear of his, the love there, the glory there. And our spirit is in is is being is is just advancing, there's not further than it got. A true friendship, because we love his presence, and ware vriendschap met God ontwick, further than diensten in the Kerak, maar in team, ain op één. Waar? We zijn gehecht aan zijn aanwezigheid. We are attached to his presence. And just like Moses would say, as well as Moses zou zeggen, if your presence is not with us, we are not moving. Because we know that as we are as we remain in his presence, as we remain connected, his power is there, his wisdom is there, his peace is there. So it is a it is something for all of us to evaluate, keep in our heart, as either to us heart into how the chodak like have I lost the presence? How serious is the presence of God to me? Who belongrijk is aanwezigheid for God? Um let's pray, Lord forbidden. I want you guys to pray. That the Spirit of God helps you here, and that the Halligan here, because He's the one that actually leads you. He is getting the light deeper and higher in the presence, deeper and hoger in the aanwezigheid. Gifts can be given there, spiritual gaves can be geactive, can be activated there, can be given the revelations, can be given there, openbaring can be given, anointings can be can be can be released, can fight, anointings can even be strengthened, all things can be called callings can take rooping. You understand? The presence of God is like it's it's our place. This is the place we're called to operate. It is look, and in that presence, what power can challenge your life? Challenges can come, I don't come, but you have in you. Yet in you what it takes to overcome. Because the presence is a reality in your life. So begin to pray, begin to be there. That the Spirit of God leads you higher in this position as a priest. Because the priest is meant to operate and live from that presence. We didn't go to that script, we can need that script, but the scripture said under the old covenant that the priests are meant to bring all you into the holy place daily. So that the light in the holy place will shine daily. Next week we'll speak about that. And we zorgen that the lamp, that licht in the aanwezigheid, in the heilige plek, altijd shine. You understand? Begin to pray. Begin to pray that the light in your life, you will daily bring the oil, you shall only always bring it. It means now you will work with the Holy Ghost, you will sambe. So that the light in your life, so that the licht in your life, it shall always shine, it shall shine. The presence of God, it shall not go down, it shall not disappear, it shall not wegga. No. Whatever you lose in life, do not lose his presence in your life. What you always draak in your life, laat nooit toe that you the aanwezigheid in your heart kwijtra. Be dedicated to it. Seek him. Have a heart for it, have a heart for the head. Remain on fire for him. In feeling flam for the hearing. Be sensitive. Tot zijn aanwezigheid. Wetende that. Daar komt jouw kracht vandaan. That's where your power comes from. That's where your wisdom comes. So just pray that the Spirit of God helps you to sustain the presence of God in your life. Bid that I help on the aanwezigheid of the Here in your life to underhouden. That the fuel in you not beneden can stay, that that fire will not go down. That light will not go down. That lift will not be. You will always sense it. When you start to pray after a time, you just sense the Holy Ghost, the power, the Spirit move. When you in gebad kommt, now you begin to merge, ah, He is the Spirit of God is moving. I sense the presence of God. I wish I opened there is no dryness in your life. There is no droog in your life, but the presence of God is there. And if there is any dryness, begin to pray and say, Holy Ghost, Heilige Geist, fill me. Make everything wet, overflow, strum over in me. Begin just to pray. The love of God, the presence of God in your heart, in your soul, in your spirit, it shall forever rise. It's always mere and meerward. The Holy Ghost will draw you deeper and deeper in his presence, even in your own time, self in your eigen. There is an intimate that you can open with him up a personal niveau. Buiten your time in the current, outside of your time in the church. That you are spending time with him, and it is having an impact on your inner man. And they have impact on your inner look. And that's the place where true healing takes place. That's the place where ware genezing in your heart is placed. Because now there is no one there but you and God. And there's none there, but you and God, in zijn awesome, in his presence, everything is exposed. All is open by. Breathing in the presence, working from that presence. The temple now is our body. We have become the temple and we carry the presence. Father, we pray that you help us and strengthen us to move in this more and mighty for your glory. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Amen.
