As I walked around this whole building, this morning in the rain, and I walked around looking for a cornerstone, that I thought was something that was set up way back of a religious spirit over this place, and I walked around it, and I just wanted Your Spirit to come down, and I just wanted Your Spirit to be in this house, and in this building and in this place, and I really wanted You to do something this morning and I really wanted You to come in this building, and I really want Your entertained heartbeat to just be poured out, so people can come away from here, not warming a red pew, not being beaten up by a wooden bench, but being touched by a Living God. And I know, Father God, that something's heavy on my heart, to say to this group of people, but I don't know what it is. So I clear myself of myself, and what I think, and what I feel, and everything about me, and I ask that it would be laid down right now, that Your Spirit, and Your hand, and Your heartbeat, and Your understanding, and Your motivation would be able to come through, and say Your stuff. So, Lord Jesus, I just ask that You would do crazy and amazing stuff, from my spirit-man of You being in me, to be poured out of me. And I pray, Father God, today, something today, on this street, not in this place, but in the church, which is the body, which is the heartbeat of the people sitting in these seats, would be a revelation of Your Spirit, that would go further, and it would just touch a new destiny, a new vision, a new place, a new understanding, that people would be rocked to the foundation of the core, of how they stand, and how they look, how they touch, how they minister, how they pray, how they walk through the grocery store, how they see people's lives, that they would know that they are the inspiration, they're the only ones who can share the love of God, and they would stand up, and they would take the quest, the invitation to become more. And I pray that, Father God, that if there's a fear of man in this building, I pray that it would be swept and washed right now, and if there's a fear of failure, I pray that it would be washed right now, if there's a fear of intimidation, or anything that satan is trying to do to get this group of believers to be silent, or to hide, or to be timid, or fearful, I pray that Your Spirit would wash over them, that Your Spirit would wash through them, wash around them, and I pray that they would identify areas of thoughts and emotions that don't line up with You as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. And I pray that right now Your Spirit would start to wash through woman and man, children, babies, young adults, high school kids, college kids, and I pray that this group of people would be able to touch lives in a new way this week. And I pray that something would just, something would break, something would snap, and something would change in the heavenlies, as far as how people leave this building, it wouldn't be about what I say, it wouldn't be what anybody says, it would be about your spirit, engaging them to a whole new understanding of how to walk in authority. So Jesus, I just ask today that You would do stuff. That You would come, that You would glorify, that You would just uh, send Your presence, and send Your rain, and send Your glory, so I pray, Father God, for a milestone, of a memory that we could fall back on, in Jesus' name. Amen. As I woke up this morning, I said, “God, what do You want to say?” And I got Romans, um Romans 7 & 8, about the difference of living “over here” in the flesh, and living “over here”, in the Spirit. And as I was driving here, I was, sort of praying, “God, what do You want to say?”, and as I got to this church, and I walked into this church, and I'm not…I didn't, I don't um, I'm struggling with this word, but I don't like religion, does that make sense? I don't like the way that man has formed religion so stuck, does that make sense? And, we make a place for the bread to go, and we make a place for the person to sit, and then its formula, and its organization, and its “We have to do THIS”, because we call it church, but its so stuck. And I walked into this building this morning, and my spirit is like “ugh!”…just inside of me, and I read the windows, and I was reading, and I was like, “God, what happened here? How many committee meetings was…happened, how, how many pews should we fit in this place, how many committee meetings were formed for the doors, the windows, and the buildings…”, and I just had to leave…so I walked out through that door and God just said, “Walk around the place, and pray for it. Walk around the place, and then not only walk around the place, but ask the congregation, are they walking around their homes”. And then that David Crowder song came up, and the David Crowder song, and I'd love to play it, but I've got way too much for you..in the time that I've got, so I really don't know what to say, but the David Crowder song came up and it said, “take back the ground that you live on, take back what you inhabit, take back where you entertain, what, what is your formative ground, take it back.” And what I was really, got with that, as I walked back around and I walked through and I was soaking wet, and I walked in the door, and a couple of girls came and said “Why are you so wet, you couldn't find the door?” And I was out there, and someone had relocked the door after I was trying to get back in, and I was like, “Well, maybe I have to go around again!”, and God said, “No, once is enough. Come back in.” So I started wailing on the door, for someone to let me in, and at that point, as I walked back in the door, something broke, and God said, “I want you to tell these people to take back ground”. And I don't really know, I've never really been taught, from a pulpit, how to do that, I don't know exactly what that looks like. I don't know how God would do it in His word, but I know what's worked for my life. And what's worked for my life is, over the time that I've had, young adults, and students and I'll give you like a capsule of my life, just a real quick capsule, because I could spend too long on the capsule, so I'm going to try to compact it. I was born and raised in New Zealand, I had a traumatic, not traumatic, but unique upbringing, um, with lots and lots of very, very rough stuff that happened to our family from yanking out kidneys, to losing eyes, to people being hanged over cliffs, and on trees, and just really crazy walks with life and death, through very unique family members; I fell into a fire, in a dump one day, and my brother yanked me back out, so there's been many many opportunities for death, and for uniqueness, but from the age of zero to ten, there was no bible, and there was no Christ, and there was no nothing. At ten years old, God, said, I really believe that God said, and He just ripped the back of my shirt, and said, “I want you to be saved”, and put me in a group of believers, outside my family, and I was a little rebel, um, and every day, every night, I would wake up my cabin leader, one o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock, six o'clock, seven o'clock in the morning, and I'd like try to get him to like, lose his Christianity, to see if he was really saved. And every night, I would like, come up with 25 different questions, I'd just sort of write them on my hand, and I'd go, okay, this is like the first question, and this is the second question, and I'd jump out of my bed and go “HEY!!!! WAKE UP!!!!” And I tried my best to get this guy to freak out at me and not like me, and to reject me and push me away, and all these things, and I finally got to a point where he loved me through it, and by Thursday, I said, “Whatever you've got, whatever it is, whatever you have, I want it. I want it so badly, I want to be saved”. And we sat down on that bunk that day and he said, “Do you want to accept Jesus Christ to be your personal Lord and Savior?”, and I said, “Yeah, that's it, I want it”. So I went back home, I was 11 years old, and I can imagine walking out on the beach, and my mom and my dad were out sunning themselves, on the beach in New Zealand, and I said, “Yeah!!!!! Mom and Dad, I got saved!!!!!!!!!!” And my dad stood up, looked me in the eyes, and said, “That's the worst thing you've ever done in your life, I want you to reject Jesus, and I want you to walk away from it, you cannot have anything to do with God, the bible, or anything.” I was like, “Woah, woah. How do I do this thing…I know something transacted in my heart, I know God saved me, I know something happened in me. I know that I know, that I know, that I'm different, but my mom or my dad don't want me to have anything to do with church, or Christ.” So I went back and I said, to my, spiritual dad at that point, came into my life, and just sort of held me at a distance and said, “I want you ask for blessing”. “And I want you to go back”, he said, “and I want you to pray over your bedroom, and I want you to pray over your space, that God would be over your space, that God would be in your quarters, and that God would be in the place that you live in, even if you could just go around and just anoint the doorframes in your bedroom, and I just want you to pray that God would be able to meet you there.” And, I'm 11 years old, and you know, I came back from this place and I was like, “Well you know, okay”. And he said, “Go back home and ask for a blessing. Ask for a blessing to go to church.” And I was like, “A blessing? Sure! What's a blessing?” And you know what, from a very young age, God's taught me about the sowing and reaping principle, the blessing, you know of living out, and you know, at 11 years old, I had a family meeting with mom and dad, and I said, “Mom and Dad, I really want to go to church, would you allow me to grow in this Christian thing, would you allow me to have a bible, would you allow me just to go there?” And dad was like “Sure. If you get up, if you make your own way, if you could find your own ride, if you get there, if you get dressed, if you have your own breakfast, and if you get home, if you get home by a certain time.” And I said, “Sure, absolutely. No problem, whatever you want me to do”. I was a pretty driven kid, and at that point, I lived an hour and a half from any local church, and…so I made phone calls, and I found this person, and we drove an hour and a half to church. And this church, was a Baptist, Pentecostal, charismatic, crazy church, that was Baptist! And every Sunday, a demon would manifest, somewhere in the audience. Every Sunday, somebody's legs would grow back on, or their arms or their parts of their body would be healed. Every Sunday, somebody would, be, like, go out in the Spirit, Every Sunday, there was prophecy, there was prophetical, there was tongues, there was healing, there was fire, there was restoration, and I was reading my word, and I was like, well, this is what's happening in Acts! And, if it's happening in Acts, and it's happening in this word, that's God! And God does what God wants, and God's GOD, and you know what? I like this blessing thing, this blessing thing's really good! And at that point forward, I walked forward with an understanding that God did “God stuff”, and I walked with a whole new understanding that this is…that God wants to take back ground. And, this scripture that I really want to say is, remember, Romans. Are we living of the Spirit, or are we living of the flesh, or are we trying to live in the middle, with a better spirit, and a better flesh? And, Romans, 7 & 8, and I'm not going to read you the whole thing, but I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “What camp, what ground, what authority, what have I allowed, what have I put in, where have I lowered the bar? What have I put in my life that is making ramifications; from my flesh, for my flesh to be glorified, for my flesh to be gratified, for my flesh to be coddled, for my flesh to be taken over, for my flesh to be built up? And, I really want to say is, okay…this is how I do it…you don't need to do it this way, but, I went to Home Depot, and I bought some stakes, some treated stakes, and I got some white paint, and I painted them white, and then I looked through the word of God, and then I made these white stakes into scripture stakes, and over the place where we have our campus, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil. Over my home, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil, and God said, “Take back the ground. Take it back, because you're the inhabitant of that ground. And this is where I want to make a Kingdom portal, I want the Kingdom of God to come down, and I want it to rain on your ground. And I want your ground, I want you to walk over it, and I want you to clarify it, as this is not earthly ground anymore, this is Kingdom ground, this is a place where I can reign. And walk over that ground, and say, “Anything that's fleshly, anything of old, anything that doesn't glorify, or stand up, or take under, if it does not submit under the Holy Spirit, I ask this ground to be washed. I ask this ground to be restored, to be replenished, to be taken back. And I say, by driving this stake in the ground, Spirit of God, come and take residence. Come and take ownership, come and take Your people back, my kids back, these guys back, these young adults back. Do Your stuff, through the ground that we take back.” And I don't believe any of us are young enough or old enough not to hear that God's got a calling for us to do, and stand up, and take back, and be more. And you know what? It doesn't matter quite what it looks like, it doesn't matter quite how we do it, it doesn't matter quite the volume of...as I was sitting in this church this morning, I had a vision of a church that was very unique. It had a Coffee Shop over here, (Points to the right riser side) (Where Steve Elliott saw it a few years ago when the hospitality committee was meeting), and people were just sort of hanging out. It had some, you know, no aisles right here, and it had some easels and some artwork, and just some different stuff, and over here, there was some pews, and some tables, and over here, there was some wooden pews. But God wants every part of that Kingdom in One kingdom, glorifying Him. And we are so different, does that make sense? We do have different needs and different desires, and different wants, and different desires, and God was saying, “I want people to come together. I want people to live under authority, and I want you to take back ground.” As I was just sitting in this church this morning, and as I had done the walk and, I'll get back to my little story in a minute, but as I was sitting here, I sat down, I read that thing from David Crowder about taking back ground, and letting Jesus be the King of Kings, and letting Jesus be the Lord of Lords, and letting Him encompass all, and then take over, and have full right, full reign and full ownership, God said, “I want you to develop an invitation". And I was like, “Wow. What's an invitation mean?” So, this is a revelation to the team, cause we're going to actually be doing this in the next month, so, I've been praying for what to do, but God said, “Develop an invitation, an invitation for the next generation, a charge, an invitation, an encounter for your inheritance to stand with the Living King, and get a window of truth to take back this generation and the new generation coming up. And God just put a vision on me to making a letter of asking people to come on a journey, a journey of radical holiness. A journey of clarity, a journey of passion, a journey of vision, a journey that's going to set them free, a journey that's going to give them destiny, and passion and vigor. And God just gave me, like, a whole just couple of pages of “this is what I want you to do”, and this church is actually a part of that, of, there's been a couple of things that even in this church service this morning, um, we listened to a video on food, okay? And it was, uh, very well done of a documentary of these people, communicating their cause and need and effect, and, as I was sitting in this church, God was said, “Make a video, and get the people who have a destiny, what would you want to tell the next generation. What would you want to impart in the Spirit, of this next 15, 16, 17, 20 year old generation, what would you want to tell them, and how passionate would you want to tell them about waking up, and standing up, and growing up, taking back, taking land, ownership and development, ‘cause yes, to be really honest, guys, we are in a generation that has a time clock attached to it. And we are in a time where things are going to speed up, we are in a revelation generation, we don't know exactly the time, we don't know exactly how long, but I would say it's an exciting principal, and we need to do more, does that make sense?...to not just sit, to not just bask, to not just think we're doing something, but actually get a vision, and start to do it. And if you don't have a vision that's outside the box of whatever you've got right now, I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “God, give me a fresh vision. Give me a vision and a passion to”, (and I'm that's for you, young people, that's for you, it doesn't have an age to it, does that make sense? It does not have a passion of where you are, I want you to ask the Father, “God, what do you want me to do in this war? God, what do you want me to do in this generation? God, what are you calling me to become?” And I think God's asking, dear brothers and sisters, “I want you, I'm calling you, I'm pledging you, and I'm crying out for you, to make a declaration, to not live under sinful nature, to not live under fleshly ways, or carnal minds, or doubt, or misconceptions, or fear of failure, or anything that you would hold back as, that doesn't really stand up or line up or come under the heartbeat of the character of God, it doesn't really even come under God's principles. I really want you to say, if there is, mindsets and misconceptions, and worries and doubts, and hurts and fears and frustrations, and anger, worries, and ways, and even the…as I look around, people thinking, “oh, what are they thinking about me, what am I going to do, this, what am I going to do…that is the fear of man, and it needs to be broken off. And the fear of man is always worried about what is somebody else doing, what is someone else thinking, what are they going to say about me, do I look good enough? But, you know what? When we operate out of that, we don't, we don't step out with authority, does that make sense? We don't, we're fearful, and I don't believe God made man, well, He said it didn't He? What He said, what'd He say? “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind”…Amen, brother! Unconsciously, unconsciously, something happens in our minds. Unconsciously, the biggest battlefield is right here, (points to his head). Unconsciously, when you look in the mirror, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When something doesn't go quite well on the road, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When your loved one triggers an emotion, what do you hear, what do you feel, what do you see? When something goes inside of you…all I'm saying today, is, draw a line in the sand. And that line is very clear, God wants you to look at that stuff, and say “Enough is enough!” “Old is old”. And if that's putting some white stakes around your property line, and digging them in the ground, and getting a bottle of vegetable oil out of the counter and saying “God, this is your vegetable oil”, and walking out and taking the property line of your house back, your children, your grandparents, your loved ones, anybody in your family line, mom and dad, your brothers and sisters, anybody that you know, anybody that you love, anybody that's in your family, and you go, and you make an encounter with God, over your property line, and you go from corner to corner, and go “God, I'm going to go back in, this is holy ground, this is Your ground, and I want Your word, I want Your word to be the foundation that I stand on, that I live under, that I breathe in, I want You to give me acknowledgment of how to walk, and within there, I want fresh passion, I want fresh desire, I want a fresh calling, I want fresh wisdom, fresh understanding, and whatever's clouded my viewpoint, whatever's clouded my understanding, whatever's clouded my principles of thought, whatever's coming from anywhere, anytime, pre-today, I want it, I want it dismantled. I want it, dismantled. And if you run into a wall, get help. If you run into a milestone, get help. If you run into a place where you feel like this is never going to go, its never going to leave, its..get help If that's somebody that you love, if you can just walk up to them and say, can we pray over this area? If not, the Pastor of this church, the leadership of this church, get help. But do not walk, and live and allow that playfield over there, that minefield, that battlefield, that wrong thinking, that stinking thinking, that stuff that's going to hold you back, do not allow that from entering into the freshness. The freedom, the passion, vigor, the clarity, the purpose, the destiny, the god-ship. And just remember, that if you need to wash some busy-ness off, ‘cause really the root of busy-ness is not good…And busy-ness, will really stop you from holiness. ‘Cause busy-ness gets a lot of stuff in the way of you being quiet, of you resting, of you seeking, of you hearing, of you being Christ-like. So, I would say, maybe this is a good time to re-dial. Does that make sense? Re-calibrate, how well does a compass work, with a magnet underneath it? How well does a compass work if you set it on top of a vehicle? Maybe some of you need to take your compass, and get out in the wilderness for a little bit, and put your compass down, and say, “God, can you re-calibrate my compass? Recalibrate my understanding, recalibrate my vision, recalibrate my discernment, recalibrate my listening ear, recalibrate the ‘true north' of who You are, within me.” And maybe the magnet of my past has been so strong that it has been spinning out of control…by Your Spirit, by Your Holy Spirit, I ask that You would severe off, cut off, (does that make sense?), all around me, the ties, the yoke, the mantle of unforgiveness, the mantle of hurt, the mantle of fear, the mantle of frustration, the mantle of not being needed or wanted, the mantle of what somebody else has said, the mantle”…I know for myself, some of that mantle was pretty big, does that make sense? That mantle of rejection, because when I got saved, remember back when I was 11 years old, mom and dad started going through a divorce, and I felt like they didn't really, not want me, but I just didn't want to go through all the arguments, and I didn't want to go through all the trials, I didn't want to have that massive struggle, and I really didn't want to stay where I was. So I said, “Mom and Dad, I want to leave. Can I leave, is it possible that I board in this town”. So I started boarding, and I went to the church where I was at, and I put a sign up in the church, “Can I have someone to board with”, and, uh, the elder, one of the elders of the church said, “Yes, come board with us.” But little did I know, that he had a very unique principle of how to discipline his kids, so every night, he would take us down in the cellar, and cane us, many times, with this cane. Many times, he would just, “Your lights were on, you took to many cookies, you ate too much”…and I was like, “Wow! My dad wasn't saved, and this guy is saved, maybe Christianity is, maybe it's a different precept”…so in that attic, I mean in that basement with this Christian man, and with what he was doing to me, it was coming into conflict with what…it was coming into conflict with this~ (mind), and it was coming in conflict, and the conflict was, that my dad wasn't Christian, my dad wasn't saved, but here was an elder of a church, this was an elder of the church, the church I go to, and he gets up and does all this stuff at church, but he's doing all this in the basement of his house. And I'm like, “how does that jive, God?” Maybe I don't want to be a “God-guy”. Maybe I don't want God in me, because if I have to parent my kids this way, maybe I don't want that. And God gave me a revelation, and He said, “Rob, he has a very flawed foundation of how he sees Me. And he wants to discipline the ‘hell out of you'…and I was like “God, why does he see so much hell in me?” Because he didn't love me unconditionally, does that make sense? He was just a guy. And then at 14, I would put out my thumb, and I would hitch-hike all the way out to my parents, I would hitch-hike up to their house, and then one day, my brother went crazy, and he ran over my mother, and there was a big argument, and there was all sorts of stuff going on, and I was like, “Well, I really can't tell them what's going on…”, so I just hitch-hiked back home, and I thought, “I've just got to suffer it, and go through this, it's just a part of life.” And finally, I just came to a revelation, and I would just hide, and I would go into my bedroom and crawl into my bed and just read God's word, and God said, He started to speak to me, and He said, “Evil people, or hurting people, hurt others, but that's not My heart. So don't take on that hurt, walk away from it, and look at it from different eyes.” We all have a principle of something, somewhere, somehow going wrong. Or not quite the way we think its going to do, which forms all sorts of baggage, it forms all sorts of hurts, it forms all sorts of dysfunction. We are being formed, like it or not, does that make sense? From the time we are very very little to very very big, I don't want to say old, but big, you are in different stages of formation. So please, no matter where you are, child or young adult, or even middle aged, or older, examine your foundation. Examine how you see the God-head of Christ, examine how to take back ground…what stakes you're going to put in, and examine what you look like to the world. Examine, when you do have an opportunity to pray, are you being obedient? If God puts something in your spirit, at the grocery store, for somebody else, are you being that radical Jesus? Or, are you being that timid, shy person? Are you living out, the 100% destiny of God's fruit in your life, by what you do, by what you say, by how you act, and by what you do. Are you living on “Gloom Street” or “Praise Avenue”? Is Praise Avenue see-able? What sort of Christ are you modeling? What sort of Jesus do you look like? What sort of Jesus are you showing the world? What sort of Jesus is touching and reaching and loving. ‘Cause Jesus loves to touch. Jesus is an affectionate God. God is an affectionate God. Remember, we saw a hug up in the photo of the gypsies, if we can do nothing else, but say “God bless that person”, even if we don't say it verbally, are you Jesus with skin on? And are you allowing the skin of Jesus to touch others in every environment you're in. All that there, that whole window that I just drew up, examine, and examine, and examine anything that's keeping you from the freedom of walking and standing and knowing and hearing and living. Really, to be really honest, the question was, what do you do with these guys? That's what we do. With RAD, that's what we do. Get people to a whole new foundation of radically being set apart, to get a destiny, to serve the Father, to make a difference, to say, this is my life, this is destiny, and I want to make a difference. But I know, for a fact, as I look around this room, you're not too old. You're not too young…start to do it for yourself. Because God wants you to wake up, stand up, grow up, mature up, do whatever, He wants you to take back ground for yourself, but don't wait for somebody else to do it for you. Please don't wait. Please don't wait to be told. Please don't wait, and even, I'm going to talk to the people who are zero to twenty, right now. If you fit in that age bracket, zero through twenty, if you're waiting to be told, to read your word, if you're waiting to be told to get up in the morning, if you're waiting to be told to pray, if you're waiting to be told to do something that you know is right, but you're either too lazy, or don't want to, remember, I would examine the hunger level of your own lives, I would examine where you're going, what you're saying to yourself, “I can be radically filled with the Spirit of God”…God is not a respecter of persons, or age…so if you're zero to twenty today, please, look at your life, and say, that guy, he made a destiny, a declaration…I even made a declaration at 11 years old, outside of every box that I was going to, not going to have intimacy with any girl…I would say, if you're zero to twenty, start making declarations that are bigger than you. Start making dreams that are bigger than you. Start making choices that are bigger than you. Make some destinies that you can walk in, stand on and grow up in, that are yours, not because someone's told you to, not because you have to, but because you want to. …I'm going to pray for you…and if you feel that God's just arousing something, or pulling something, or pushing something, it may be between and wife, of just praying together. It may be between a son and a father, or a son and a daughter, or just loved ones, to go and just say, “I love you”, “I'm sorry”, or I think there's a lot of things that need to be said that don't get said; I just really want you to examine your heart, and say, “God, what do you want to say through me, that I'm not waiting for someone else first”…So, as we pray, just ask God, “God, what do You want to say through me? What do You want to do through me, what ground do You want to take back in me, and how do You want me to be more like You?” So, Holy Spirit, Lord Jesus, I pray that Romans 7 & 8 would be a declaration that we would live by Your Spirit. That we would stand by Your Spirit. That we would speak by Your Spirit. That Your Spirit, right now would bring a whole new destiny, and revelation, and a destiny of journey, and passion, and vigor. And I pray that right now, in this place, if there's anybody who needs to say I'm sorry, or would you forgive me, or I'm sorry for being disrespectful, or I'm sorry for rebelling, or I'm sorry for having my own way, or whatever it is across this place right now, that you would wake people up to say “enough is enough. I want to take back ground in my own life, in my own heart, in my own emotions, I want to look, and smell, and be more like Jesus Christ. I pray that You would put a calling out there, a bigger calling, an invitation to rock the world. An invitation to take back ground, an invitation to set people free, an invitation to live a radical journey of holiness. An invitation, Father God, to rattle the cages of people around this whole Richmond, Virginia, and surrounding areas that, You, Father God, would start to make an epicenter, of a trickle effect That would go out, and would be felt in many places, many towns, and many states, that would go out from this place, a ripple effect of holiness and obedience. Father, I just thank you for this group of people gathered around in this building, I thank You for what You are, and what You are doing, in Jesus' name. Thank You, Father, that You are good. Amen. 00:38:37 Sat, 07 Mar 2009 00:00:00 -0500 http://sermonplayer.com/download_rss/12054-rss-193863-1.mp3 God,obedience, On Mar 5, 2009, at 9:41 AM, CHESAPEAKE VINEYARD wrote: Father, right now I just ask for Your revelation, and Your destiny, and Your purpose, and not only that, Father God, a washing of Your Spirit. As I walked around this whole building, this morning in the rain, and I walked around looking for a cornerstone, that I thought was something that was set up way back of a religious spirit over this place, and I walked around it, and I just wanted Your Spirit to come down, and I just wanted Your Spirit to be in this house, and in this building and in this place, and I really wanted You to do something this morning and I really wanted You to come in this building, and I really want Your entertained heartbeat to just be poured out, so people can come away from here, not warming a red pew, not being beaten up by a wooden bench, but being touched by a Living God. And I know, Father God, that something's heavy on my heart, to say to this group of people, but I don't know what it is. So I clear myself of myself, and what I think, and what I feel, and everything about me, and I ask that it would be laid down right now, that Your Spirit, and Your hand, and Your heartbeat, and Your understanding, and Your motivation would be able to come through, and say Your stuff. So, Lord Jesus, I just ask that You would do crazy and amazing stuff, from my spirit-man of You being in me, to be poured out of me. And I pray, Father God, today, something today, on this street, not in this place, but in the church, which is the body, which is the heartbeat of the people sitting in these seats, would be a revelation of Your Spirit, that would go further, and it would just touch a new destiny, a new vision, a new place, a new understanding, that people would be rocked to the foundation of the core, of how they stand, and how they look, how they touch, how they minister, how they pray, how they walk through the grocery store, how they see people's lives, that they would know that they are the inspiration, they're the only ones who can share the love of God, and they would stand up, and they would take the quest, the invitation to become more. And I pray that, Father God, that if there's a fear of man in this building, I pray that it would be swept and washed right now, and if there's a fear of failure, I pray that it would be washed right now, if there's a fear of intimidation, or anything that satan is trying to do to get this group of believers to be silent, or to hide, or to be timid, or fearful, I pray that Your Spirit would wash over them, that Your Spirit would wash through them, wash around them, and I pray that they would identify areas of thoughts and emotions that don't line up with You as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. And I pray that right now Your Spirit would start to wash through woman and man, children, babies, young adults, high school kids, college kids, and I pray that this group of people would be able to touch lives in a new way this week. And I pray that something would just, something would break, something would snap, and something would change in the heavenlies, as far as how people leave this building, it wouldn't be about what I say, it wouldn't be what anybody says, it would be about your spirit, engaging them to a whole new understanding of how to walk in authority. So Jesus, I just ask today that You would do stuff. That You would come, that You would glorify, that You would just uh, send Your presence, and send Your rain, and send Your glory, so I pray, Father God, for a milestone, of a memory that we could fall back on, in Jesus' name. Amen. As I woke up this morning, I said, “God, what do You want to say?” And I got Romans, um Romans 7 & 8, about the difference of living “over here” in the flesh, and living “over here”, in the Spirit. And as I was driving here, I was, sort of praying, “God, what do You want to say?”, and as I got to this church, and I walked into this church, and I'm not…I didn't, I don't um, I'm struggling with this word, but I don't like religion, does that make sense? I don't like the way that man has formed religion so stuck, does that make sense? And, we make a place for the bread to go, and we make a place for the person to sit, and then its formula, and its organization, and its “We have to do THIS”, because we call it church, but its so stuck. And I walked into this building this morning, and my spirit is like “ugh!”…just inside of me, and I read the windows, and I was reading, and I was like, “God, what happened here? How many committee meetings was…happened, how, how many pews should we fit in this place, how many committee meetings were formed for the doors, the windows, and the buildings…”, and I just had to leave…so I walked out through that door and God just said, “Walk around the place, and pray for it. Walk around the place, and then not only walk around the place, but ask the congregation, are they walking around their homes”. And then that David Crowder song came up, and the David Crowder song, and I'd love to play it, but I've got way too much for you..in the time that I've got, so I really don't know what to say, but the David Crowder song came up and it said, “take back the ground that you live on, take back what you inhabit, take back where you entertain, what, what is your formative ground, take it back.” And what I was really, got with that, as I walked back around and I walked through and I was soaking wet, and I walked in the door, and a couple of girls came and said “Why are you so wet, you couldn't find the door?” And I was out there, and someone had relocked the door after I was trying to get back in, and I was like, “Well, maybe I have to go around again!”, and God said, “No, once is enough. Come back in.” So I started wailing on the door, for someone to let me in, and at that point, as I walked back in the door, something broke, and God said, “I want you to tell these people to take back ground”. And I don't really know, I've never really been taught, from a pulpit, how to do that, I don't know exactly what that looks like. I don't know how God would do it in His word, but I know what's worked for my life. And what's worked for my life is, over the time that I've had, young adults, and students and I'll give you like a capsule of my life, just a real quick capsule, because I could spend too long on the capsule, so I'm going to try to compact it. I was born and raised in New Zealand, I had a traumatic, not traumatic, but unique upbringing, um, with lots and lots of very, very rough stuff that happened to our family from yanking out kidneys, to losing eyes, to people being hanged over cliffs, and on trees, and just really crazy walks with life and death, through very unique family members; I fell into a fire, in a dump one day, and my brother yanked me back out, so there's been many many opportunities for death, and for uniqueness, but from the age of zero to ten, there was no bible, and there was no Christ, and there was no nothing. At ten years old, God, said, I really believe that God said, and He just ripped the back of my shirt, and said, “I want you to be saved”, and put me in a group of believers, outside my family, and I was a little rebel, um, and every day, every night, I would wake up my cabin leader, one o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock, six o'clock, seven o'clock in the morning, and I'd like try to get him to like, lose his Christianity, to see if he was really saved. And every night, I would like, come up with 25 different questions, I'd just sort of write them on my hand, and I'd go, okay, this is like the first question, and this is the second question, and I'd jump out of my bed and go “HEY!!!! WAKE UP!!!!” And I tried my best to get this guy to freak out at me and not like me, and to reject me and push me away, and all these things, and I finally got to a point where he loved me through it, and by Thursday, I said, “Whatever you've got, whatever it is, whatever you have, I want it. I want it so badly, I want to be saved”. And we sat down on that bunk that day and he said, “Do you want to accept Jesus Christ to be your personal Lord and Savior?”, and I said, “Yeah, that's it, I want it”. So I went back home, I was 11 years old, and I can imagine walking out on the beach, and my mom and my dad were out sunning themselves, on the beach in New Zealand, and I said, “Yeah!!!!! Mom and Dad, I got saved!!!!!!!!!!” And my dad stood up, looked me in the eyes, and said, “That's the worst thing you've ever done in your life, I want you to reject Jesus, and I want you to walk away from it, you cannot have anything to do with God, the bible, or anything.” I was like, “Woah, woah. How do I do this thing…I know something transacted in my heart, I know God saved me, I know something happened in me. I know that I know, that I know, that I'm different, but my mom or my dad don't want me to have anything to do with church, or Christ.” So I went back and I said, to my, spiritual dad at that point, came into my life, and just sort of held me at a distance and said, “I want you ask for blessing”. “And I want you to go back”, he said, “and I want you to pray over your bedroom, and I want you to pray over your space, that God would be over your space, that God would be in your quarters, and that God would be in the place that you live in, even if you could just go around and just anoint the doorframes in your bedroom, and I just want you to pray that God would be able to meet you there.” And, I'm 11 years old, and you know, I came back from this place and I was like, “Well you know, okay”. And he said, “Go back home and ask for a blessing. Ask for a blessing to go to church.” And I was like, “A blessing? Sure! What's a blessing?” And you know what, from a very young age, God's taught me about the sowing and reaping principle, the blessing, you know of living out, and you know, at 11 years old, I had a family meeting with mom and dad, and I said, “Mom and Dad, I really want to go to church, would you allow me to grow in this Christian thing, would you allow me to have a bible, would you allow me just to go there?” And dad was like “Sure. If you get up, if you make your own way, if you could find your own ride, if you get there, if you get dressed, if you have your own breakfast, and if you get home, if you get home by a certain time.” And I said, “Sure, absolutely. No problem, whatever you want me to do”. I was a pretty driven kid, and at that point, I lived an hour and a half from any local church, and…so I made phone calls, and I found this person, and we drove an hour and a half to church. And this church, was a Baptist, Pentecostal, charismatic, crazy church, that was Baptist! And every Sunday, a demon would manifest, somewhere in the audience. Every Sunday, somebody's legs would grow back on, or their arms or their parts of their body would be healed. Every Sunday, somebody would, be, like, go out in the Spirit, Every Sunday, there was prophecy, there was prophetical, there was tongues, there was healing, there was fire, there was restoration, and I was reading my word, and I was like, well, this is what's happening in Acts! And, if it's happening in Acts, and it's happening in this word, that's God! And God does what God wants, and God's GOD, and you know what? I like this blessing thing, this blessing thing's really good! And at that point forward, I walked forward with an understanding that God did “God stuff”, and I walked with a whole new understanding that this is…that God wants to take back ground. And, this scripture that I really want to say is, remember, Romans. Are we living of the Spirit, or are we living of the flesh, or are we trying to live in the middle, with a better spirit, and a better flesh? And, Romans, 7 & 8, and I'm not going to read you the whole thing, but I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “What camp, what ground, what authority, what have I allowed, what have I put in, where have I lowered the bar? What have I put in my life that is making ramifications; from my flesh, for my flesh to be glorified, for my flesh to be gratified, for my flesh to be coddled, for my flesh to be taken over, for my flesh to be built up? And, I really want to say is, okay…this is how I do it…you don't need to do it this way, but, I went to Home Depot, and I bought some stakes, some treated stakes, and I got some white paint, and I painted them white, and then I looked through the word of God, and then I made these white stakes into scripture stakes, and over the place where we have our campus, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil. Over my home, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil, and God said, “Take back the ground. Take it back, because you're the inhabitant of that ground. And this is where I want to make a Kingdom portal, I want the Kingdom of God to come down, and I want it to rain on your ground. And I want your ground, I want you to walk over it, and I want you to clarify it, as this is not earthly ground anymore, this is Kingdom ground, this is a place where I can reign. And walk over that ground, and say, “Anything that's fleshly, anything of old, anything that doesn't glorify, or stand up, or take under, if it does not submit under the Holy Spirit, I ask this ground to be washed. I ask this ground to be restored, to be replenished, to be taken back. And I say, by driving this stake in the ground, Spirit of God, come and take residence. Come and take ownership, come and take Your people back, my kids back, these guys back, these young adults back. Do Your stuff, through the ground that we take back.” And I don't believe any of us are young enough or old enough not to hear that God's got a calling for us to do, and stand up, and take back, and be more. And you know what? It doesn't matter quite what it looks like, it doesn't matter quite how we do it, it doesn't matter quite the volume of...as I was sitting in this church this morning, I had a vision of a church that was very unique. It had a Coffee Shop over here, (Points to the right riser side) (Where Steve Elliott saw it a few years ago when the hospitality committee was meeting), and people were just sort of hanging out. It had some, you know, no aisles right here, and it had some easels and some artwork, and just some different stuff, and over here, there was some pews, and some tables, and over here, there was some wooden pews. But God wants every part of that Kingdom in One kingdom, glorifying Him. And we are so different, does that make sense? We do have different needs and different desires, and different wants, and different desires, and God was saying, “I want people to come together. I want people to live under authority, and I want you to take back ground.” As I was just sitting in this church this morning, and as I had done the walk and, I'll get back to my little story in a minute, but as I was sitting here, I sat down, I read that thing from David Crowder about taking back ground, and letting Jesus be the King of Kings, and letting Jesus be the Lord of Lords, and letting Him encompass all, and then take over, and have full right, full reign and full ownership, God said, “I want you to develop an invitation". And I was like, “Wow. What's an invitation mean?” So, this is a revelation to the team, cause we're going to actually be doing this in the next month, so, I've been praying for what to do, but God said, “Develop an invitation, an invitation for the next generation, a charge, an invitation, an encounter for your inheritance to stand with the Living King, and get a window of truth to take back this generation and the new generation coming up. And God just put a vision on me to making a letter of asking people to come on a journey, a journey of radical holiness. A journey of clarity, a journey of passion, a journey of vision, a journey that's going to set them free, a journey that's going to give them destiny, and passion and vigor. And God just gave me, like, a whole just couple of pages of “this is what I want you to do”, and this church is actually a part of that, of, there's been a couple of things that even in this church service this morning, um, we listened to a video on food, okay? And it was, uh, very well done of a documentary of these people, communicating their cause and need and effect, and, as I was sitting in this church, God was said, “Make a video, and get the people who have a destiny, what would you want to tell the next generation. What would you want to impart in the Spirit, of this next 15, 16, 17, 20 year old generation, what would you want to tell them, and how passionate would you want to tell them about waking up, and standing up, and growing up, taking back, taking land, ownership and development, ‘cause yes, to be really honest, guys, we are in a generation that has a time clock attached to it. And we are in a time where things are going to speed up, we are in a revelation generation, we don't know exactly the time, we don't know exactly how long, but I would say it's an exciting principal, and we need to do more, does that make sense?...to not just sit, to not just bask, to not just think we're doing something, but actually get a vision, and start to do it. And if you don't have a vision that's outside the box of whatever you've got right now, I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “God, give me a fresh vision. Give me a vision and a passion to”, (and I'm that's for you, young people, that's for you, it doesn't have an age to it, does that make sense? It does not have a passion of where you are, I want you to ask the Father, “God, what do you want me to do in this war? God, what do you want me to do in this generation? God, what are you calling me to become?” And I think God's asking, dear brothers and sisters, “I want you, I'm calling you, I'm pledging you, and I'm crying out for you, to make a declaration, to not live under sinful nature, to not live under fleshly ways, or carnal minds, or doubt, or misconceptions, or fear of failure, or anything that you would hold back as, that doesn't really stand up or line up or come under the heartbeat of the character of God, it doesn't really even come under God's principles. I really want you to say, if there is, mindsets and misconceptions, and worries and doubts, and hurts and fears and frustrations, and anger, worries, and ways, and even the…as I look around, people thinking, “oh, what are they thinking about me, what am I going to do, this, what am I going to do…that is the fear of man, and it needs to be broken off. And the fear of man is always worried about what is somebody else doing, what is someone else thinking, what are they going to say about me, do I look good enough? But, you know what? When we operate out of that, we don't, we don't step out with authority, does that make sense? We don't, we're fearful, and I don't believe God made man, well, He said it didn't He? What He said, what'd He say? “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind”…Amen, brother! Unconsciously, unconsciously, something happens in our minds. Unconsciously, the biggest battlefield is right here, (points to his head). Unconsciously, when you look in the mirror, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When something doesn't go quite well on the road, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When your loved one triggers an emotion, what do you hear, what do you feel, what do you see? When something goes inside of you…all I'm saying today, is, draw a line in the sand. And that line is very clear, God wants you to look at that stuff, and say “Enough is enough!” “Old is old”. And if that's putting some white stakes around your property line, and digging them in the ground, and getting a bottle of vegetable oil out of the counter and saying “God, this is your vegetable oil”, and walking out and taking the property line of your house back, your children, your grandparents, your loved ones, anybody in your family line, mom and dad, your brothers and sisters, anybody that you know, anybody that you love, anybody that's in your family, and you go, and you make an encounter with God, over your property line, and you go from corner to corner, and go “God, I'm going to go back in, this is holy ground, this is Your ground, and I want Your word, I want Your word to be the foundation that I stand on, that I live under, that I breathe in, I want You to give me acknowledgment of how to walk, and within there, I want fresh passion, I want fresh desire, I want a fresh calling, I want fresh wisdom, fresh understanding, and whatever's clouded my viewpoint, whatever's clouded my understanding, whatever's clouded my principles of thought, whatever's coming from anywhere, anytime, pre-today, I want it, I want it dismantled. I want it, dismantled. And if you run into a wall, get help. If you run into a milestone, get help. If you run into a place where you feel like this is never going to go, its never going to leave, its..get help If that's somebody that you love, if you can just walk up to them and say, can we pray over this area? If not, the Pastor of this church, the leadership of this church, get help. But do not walk, and live and allow that playfield over there, that minefield, that battlefield, that wrong thinking, that stinking thinking, that stuff that's going to hold you back, do not allow that from entering into the freshness. The freedom, the passion, vigor, the clarity, the purpose, the destiny, the god-ship. And just remember, that if you need to wash some busy-ness off, ‘cause really the root of busy-ness is not good…And busy-ness, will really stop you from holiness. ‘Cause busy-ness gets a lot of stuff in the way of you being quiet, of you resting, of you seeking, of you hearing, of you being Christ-like. So, I would say, maybe this is a good time to re-dial. Does that make sense? Re-calibrate, how well does a compass work, with a magnet underneath it? How well does a compass work if you set it on top of a vehicle? Maybe some of you need to take your compass, and get out in the wilderness for a little bit, and put your compass down, and say, “God, can you re-calibrate my compass? Recalibrate my understanding, recalibrate my vision, recalibrate my discernment, recalibrate my listening ear, recalibrate the ‘true north' of who You are, within me.” And maybe the magnet of my past has been so strong that it has been spinning out of control…by Your Spirit, by Your Holy Spirit, I ask that You would severe off, cut off, (does that make sense?), all around me, the ties, the yoke, the mantle of unforgiveness, the mantle of hurt, the mantle of fear, the mantle of frustration, the mantle of not being needed or wanted, the mantle of what somebody else has said, the mantle”…I know for myself, some of that mantle was pretty big, does that make sense? That mantle of rejection, because when I got saved, remember back when I was 11 years old, mom and dad started going through a divorce, and I felt like they didn't really, not want me, but I just didn't want to go through all the arguments, and I didn't want to go through all the trials, I didn't want to have that massive struggle, and I really didn't want to stay where I was. So I said, “Mom and Dad, I want to leave. Can I leave, is it possible that I board in this town”. So I started boarding, and I went to the church where I was at, and I put a sign up in the church, “Can I have someone to board with”, and, uh, the elder, one of the elders of the church said, “Yes, come board with us.” But little did I know, that he had a very unique principle of how to discipline his kids, so every night, he would take us down in the cellar, and cane us, many times, with this cane. Many times, he would just, “Your lights were on, you took to many cookies, you ate too much”…and I was like, “Wow! My dad wasn't saved, and this guy is saved, maybe Christianity is, maybe it's a different precept”…so in that attic, I mean in that basement with this Christian man, and with what he was doing to me, it was coming into conflict with what…it was coming into conflict with this~ (mind), and it was coming in conflict, and the conflict was, that my dad wasn't Christian, my dad wasn't saved, but here was an elder of a church, this was an elder of the church, the church I go to, and he gets up and does all this stuff at church, but he's doing all this in the basement of his house. And I'm like, “how does that jive, God?” Maybe I don't want to be a “God-guy”. Maybe I don't want God in me, because if I have to parent my kids this way, maybe I don't want that. And God gave me a revelation, and He said, “Rob, he has a very flawed foundation of how he sees Me. And he wants to discipline the ‘hell out of you'…and I was like “God, why does he see so much hell in me?” Because he didn't love me unconditionally, does that make sense? He was just a guy. And then at 14, I would put out my thumb, and I would hitch-hike all the way out to my parents, I would hitch-hike up to their house, and then one day, my brother went crazy, and he ran over my mother, and there was a big argument, and there was all sorts of stuff going on, and I was like, “Well, I really can't tell them what's going on…”, so I just hitch-hiked back home, and I thought, “I've just got to suffer it, and go through this, it's just a part of life.” And finally, I just came to a revelation, and I would just hide, and I would go into my bedroom and crawl into my bed and just read God's word, and God said, He started to speak to me, and He said, “Evil people, or hurting people, hurt others, but that's not My heart. So don't take on that hurt, walk away from it, and look at it from different eyes.” We all have a principle of something, somewhere, somehow going wrong. Or not quite the way we think its going to do, which forms all sorts of baggage, it forms all sorts of hurts, it forms all sorts of dysfunction. We are being formed, like it or not, does that make sense? From the time we are very very little to very very big, I don't want to say old, but big, you are in different stages of formation. So please, no matter where you are, child or young adult, or even middle aged, or older, examine your foundation. Examine how you see the God-head of Christ, examine how to take back ground…what stakes you're going to put in, and examine what you look like to the world. Examine, when you do have an opportunity to pray, are you being obedient? If God puts something in your spirit, at the grocery store, for somebody else, are you being that radical Jesus? Or, are you being that timid, shy person? Are you living out, the 100% destiny of God's fruit in your life, by what you do, by what you say, by how you act, and by what you do. Are you living on “Gloom Street” or “Praise Avenue”? Is Praise Avenue see-able? What sort of Christ are you modeling? What sort of Jesus do you look like? What sort of Jesus are you showing the world? What sort of Jesus is touching and reaching and loving. ‘Cause Jesus loves to touch. Jesus is an affectionate God. God is an affectionate God. Remember, we saw a hug up in the photo of the gypsies, if we can do nothing else, but say “God bless that person”, even if we don't say it verbally, are you Jesus with skin on? And are you allowing the skin of Jesus to touch others in every environment you're in. All that there, that whole window that I just drew up, examine, and examine, and examine anything that's keeping you from the freedom of walking and standing and knowing and hearing and living. Really, to be really honest, the question was, what do you do with these guys? That's what we do. With RAD, that's what we do. Get people to a whole new foundation of radically being set apart, to get a destiny, to serve the Father, to make a difference, to say, this is my life, this is destiny, and I want to make a difference. But I know, for a fact, as I look around this room, you're not too old. You're not too young…start to do it for yourself. Because God wants you to wake up, stand up, grow up, mature up, do whatever, He wants you to take back ground for yourself, but don't wait for somebody else to do it for you. Please don't wait. Please don't wait to be told. Please don't wait, and even, I'm going to talk to the people who are zero to twenty, right now. If you fit in that age bracket, zero through twenty, if you're waiting to be told, to read your word, if you're waiting to be told to get up in the morning, if you're waiting to be told to pray, if you're waiting to be told to do something that you know is right, but you're either too lazy, or don't want to, remember, I would examine the hunger level of your own lives, I would examine where you're going, what you're saying to yourself, “I can be radically filled with the Spirit of God”…God is not a respecter of persons, or age…so if you're zero to twenty today, please, look at your life, and say, that guy, he made a destiny, a declaration…I even made a declaration at 11 years old, outside of every box that I was going to, not going to have intimacy with any girl…I would say, if you're zero to twenty, start making declarations that are bigger than you. Start making dreams that are bigger than you. Start making choices that are bigger than you. Make some destinies that you can walk in, stand on and grow up in, that are yours, not because someone's told you to, not because you have to, but because you want to. …I'm going to pray for you…and if you feel that God's just arousing something, or pulling something, or pushing something, it may be between and wife, of just praying together. It may be between a son and a father, or a son and a daughter, or just loved ones, to go and just say, “I love you”, “I'm sorry”, or I think there's a lot of things that need to be said that don't get said; I just really want you to examine your heart, and say, “God, what do you want to say through me, that I'm not waiting for someone else first”…So, as we pray, just ask God, “God, what do You want to say through me? What do You want to do through me, what ground do You want to take back in me, and how do You want me to be more like You?” So, Holy Spirit, Lord Jesus, I pray that Romans 7 & 8 would be a declaration that we would live by Your Spirit. That we would stand by Your Spirit. That we would speak by Your Spirit. That Your Spirit, right now would bring a whole new destiny, and revelation, and a destiny of journey, and passion, and vigor. And I pray that right now, in this place, if there's anybody who needs to say I'm sorry, or would you forgive me, or I'm sorry for being disrespectful, or I'm sorry for rebelling, or I'm sorry for having my own way, or whatever it is across this place right now, that you would wake people up to say “enough is enough. I want to take back ground in my own life, in my own heart, in my own emotions, I want to look, and smell, and be more like Jesus Christ. I pray that You would put a calling out there, a bigger calling, an invitation to rock the world. An invitation to take back ground, an invitation to set people free, an invitation to live a radical journey of holiness. An invitation, Father God, to rattle the cages of people around this whole Richmond, Virginia, and surrounding areas that, You, Father God, would start to make an epicenter, of a trickle effect That would go out, and would be felt in many places, many towns, and many states, that would go out from this place, a ripple effect of holiness and obedience. Father, I just thank you for this group of people gathered around in this building, I thank You for what You are, and what You are doing, in Jesus' name. Thank You, Father, that You are good. Amen.

As I walked around this whole building, this morning in the rain, and I walked around looking for a cornerstone, that I thought was something that was set up way back of a religious spirit over this place, and I walked around it, and I just wanted Your Spirit to come down, and I just wanted Your Spirit to be in this house, and in this building and in this place, and I really wanted You to do something this morning and I really wanted You to come in this building, and I really want Your entertained heartbeat to just be poured out, so people can come away from here, not warming a red pew, not being beaten up by a wooden bench, but being touched by a Living God. And I know, Father God, that something's heavy on my heart, to say to this group of people, but I don't know what it is. So I clear myself of myself, and what I think, and what I feel, and everything about me, and I ask that it would be laid down right now, that Your Spirit, and Your hand, and Your heartbeat, and Your understanding, and Your motivation would be able to come through, and say Your stuff. So, Lord Jesus, I just ask that You would do crazy and amazing stuff, from my spirit-man of You being in me, to be poured out of me. And I pray, Father God, today, something today, on this street, not in this place, but in the church, which is the body, which is the heartbeat of the people sitting in these seats, would be a revelation of Your Spirit, that would go further, and it would just touch a new destiny, a new vision, a new place, a new understanding, that people would be rocked to the foundation of the core, of how they stand, and how they look, how they touch, how they minister, how they pray, how they walk through the grocery store, how they see people's lives, that they would know that they are the inspiration, they're the only ones who can share the love of God, and they would stand up, and they would take the quest, the invitation to become more. And I pray that, Father God, that if there's a fear of man in this building, I pray that it would be swept and washed right now, and if there's a fear of failure, I pray that it would be washed right now, if there's a fear of intimidation, or anything that satan is trying to do to get this group of believers to be silent, or to hide, or to be timid, or fearful, I pray that Your Spirit would wash over them, that Your Spirit would wash through them, wash around them, and I pray that they would identify areas of thoughts and emotions that don't line up with You as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. And I pray that right now Your Spirit would start to wash through woman and man, children, babies, young adults, high school kids, college kids, and I pray that this group of people would be able to touch lives in a new way this week. And I pray that something would just, something would break, something would snap, and something would change in the heavenlies, as far as how people leave this building, it wouldn't be about what I say, it wouldn't be what anybody says, it would be about your spirit, engaging them to a whole new understanding of how to walk in authority. So Jesus, I just ask today that You would do stuff. That You would come, that You would glorify, that You would just uh, send Your presence, and send Your rain, and send Your glory, so I pray, Father God, for a milestone, of a memory that we could fall back on, in Jesus' name. Amen. As I woke up this morning, I said, “God, what do You want to say?” And I got Romans, um Romans 7 & 8, about the difference of living “over here” in the flesh, and living “over here”, in the Spirit. And as I was driving here, I was, sort of praying, “God, what do You want to say?”, and as I got to this church, and I walked into this church, and I'm not…I didn't, I don't um, I'm struggling with this word, but I don't like religion, does that make sense? I don't like the way that man has formed religion so stuck, does that make sense? And, we make a place for the bread to go, and we make a place for the person to sit, and then its formula, and its organization, and its “We have to do THIS”, because we call it church, but its so stuck. And I walked into this building this morning, and my spirit is like “ugh!”…just inside of me, and I read the windows, and I was reading, and I was like, “God, what happened here? How many committee meetings was…happened, how, how many pews should we fit in this place, how many committee meetings were formed for the doors, the windows, and the buildings…”, and I just had to leave…so I walked out through that door and God just said, “Walk around the place, and pray for it. Walk around the place, and then not only walk around the place, but ask the congregation, are they walking around their homes”. And then that David Crowder song came up, and the David Crowder song, and I'd love to play it, but I've got way too much for you..in the time that I've got, so I really don't know what to say, but the David Crowder song came up and it said, “take back the ground that you live on, take back what you inhabit, take back where you entertain, what, what is your formative ground, take it back.” And what I was really, got with that, as I walked back around and I walked through and I was soaking wet, and I walked in the door, and a couple of girls came and said “Why are you so wet, you couldn't find the door?” And I was out there, and someone had relocked the door after I was trying to get back in, and I was like, “Well, maybe I have to go around again!”, and God said, “No, once is enough. Come back in.” So I started wailing on the door, for someone to let me in, and at that point, as I walked back in the door, something broke, and God said, “I want you to tell these people to take back ground”. And I don't really know, I've never really been taught, from a pulpit, how to do that, I don't know exactly what that looks like. I don't know how God would do it in His word, but I know what's worked for my life. And what's worked for my life is, over the time that I've had, young adults, and students and I'll give you like a capsule of my life, just a real quick capsule, because I could spend too long on the capsule, so I'm going to try to compact it. I was born and raised in New Zealand, I had a traumatic, not traumatic, but unique upbringing, um, with lots and lots of very, very rough stuff that happened to our family from yanking out kidneys, to losing eyes, to people being hanged over cliffs, and on trees, and just really crazy walks with life and death, through very unique family members; I fell into a fire, in a dump one day, and my brother yanked me back out, so there's been many many opportunities for death, and for uniqueness, but from the age of zero to ten, there was no bible, and there was no Christ, and there was no nothing. At ten years old, God, said, I really believe that God said, and He just ripped the back of my shirt, and said, “I want you to be saved”, and put me in a group of believers, outside my family, and I was a little rebel, um, and every day, every night, I would wake up my cabin leader, one o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock, six o'clock, seven o'clock in the morning, and I'd like try to get him to like, lose his Christianity, to see if he was really saved. And every night, I would like, come up with 25 different questions, I'd just sort of write them on my hand, and I'd go, okay, this is like the first question, and this is the second question, and I'd jump out of my bed and go “HEY!!!! WAKE UP!!!!” And I tried my best to get this guy to freak out at me and not like me, and to reject me and push me away, and all these things, and I finally got to a point where he loved me through it, and by Thursday, I said, “Whatever you've got, whatever it is, whatever you have, I want it. I want it so badly, I want to be saved”. And we sat down on that bunk that day and he said, “Do you want to accept Jesus Christ to be your personal Lord and Savior?”, and I said, “Yeah, that's it, I want it”. So I went back home, I was 11 years old, and I can imagine walking out on the beach, and my mom and my dad were out sunning themselves, on the beach in New Zealand, and I said, “Yeah!!!!! Mom and Dad, I got saved!!!!!!!!!!” And my dad stood up, looked me in the eyes, and said, “That's the worst thing you've ever done in your life, I want you to reject Jesus, and I want you to walk away from it, you cannot have anything to do with God, the bible, or anything.” I was like, “Woah, woah. How do I do this thing…I know something transacted in my heart, I know God saved me, I know something happened in me. I know that I know, that I know, that I'm different, but my mom or my dad don't want me to have anything to do with church, or Christ.” So I went back and I said, to my, spiritual dad at that point, came into my life, and just sort of held me at a distance and said, “I want you ask for blessing”. “And I want you to go back”, he said, “and I want you to pray over your bedroom, and I want you to pray over your space, that God would be over your space, that God would be in your quarters, and that God would be in the place that you live in, even if you could just go around and just anoint the doorframes in your bedroom, and I just want you to pray that God would be able to meet you there.” And, I'm 11 years old, and you know, I came back from this place and I was like, “Well you know, okay”. And he said, “Go back home and ask for a blessing. Ask for a blessing to go to church.” And I was like, “A blessing? Sure! What's a blessing?” And you know what, from a very young age, God's taught me about the sowing and reaping principle, the blessing, you know of living out, and you know, at 11 years old, I had a family meeting with mom and dad, and I said, “Mom and Dad, I really want to go to church, would you allow me to grow in this Christian thing, would you allow me to have a bible, would you allow me just to go there?” And dad was like “Sure. If you get up, if you make your own way, if you could find your own ride, if you get there, if you get dressed, if you have your own breakfast, and if you get home, if you get home by a certain time.” And I said, “Sure, absolutely. No problem, whatever you want me to do”. I was a pretty driven kid, and at that point, I lived an hour and a half from any local church, and…so I made phone calls, and I found this person, and we drove an hour and a half to church. And this church, was a Baptist, Pentecostal, charismatic, crazy church, that was Baptist! And every Sunday, a demon would manifest, somewhere in the audience. Every Sunday, somebody's legs would grow back on, or their arms or their parts of their body would be healed. Every Sunday, somebody would, be, like, go out in the Spirit, Every Sunday, there was prophecy, there was prophetical, there was tongues, there was healing, there was fire, there was restoration, and I was reading my word, and I was like, well, this is what's happening in Acts! And, if it's happening in Acts, and it's happening in this word, that's God! And God does what God wants, and God's GOD, and you know what? I like this blessing thing, this blessing thing's really good! And at that point forward, I walked forward with an understanding that God did “God stuff”, and I walked with a whole new understanding that this is…that God wants to take back ground. And, this scripture that I really want to say is, remember, Romans. Are we living of the Spirit, or are we living of the flesh, or are we trying to live in the middle, with a better spirit, and a better flesh? And, Romans, 7 & 8, and I'm not going to read you the whole thing, but I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “What camp, what ground, what authority, what have I allowed, what have I put in, where have I lowered the bar? What have I put in my life that is making ramifications; from my flesh, for my flesh to be glorified, for my flesh to be gratified, for my flesh to be coddled, for my flesh to be taken over, for my flesh to be built up? And, I really want to say is, okay…this is how I do it…you don't need to do it this way, but, I went to Home Depot, and I bought some stakes, some treated stakes, and I got some white paint, and I painted them white, and then I looked through the word of God, and then I made these white stakes into scripture stakes, and over the place where we have our campus, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil. Over my home, I dug them in the ground, and I anointed them with oil, and God said, “Take back the ground. Take it back, because you're the inhabitant of that ground. And this is where I want to make a Kingdom portal, I want the Kingdom of God to come down, and I want it to rain on your ground. And I want your ground, I want you to walk over it, and I want you to clarify it, as this is not earthly ground anymore, this is Kingdom ground, this is a place where I can reign. And walk over that ground, and say, “Anything that's fleshly, anything of old, anything that doesn't glorify, or stand up, or take under, if it does not submit under the Holy Spirit, I ask this ground to be washed. I ask this ground to be restored, to be replenished, to be taken back. And I say, by driving this stake in the ground, Spirit of God, come and take residence. Come and take ownership, come and take Your people back, my kids back, these guys back, these young adults back. Do Your stuff, through the ground that we take back.” And I don't believe any of us are young enough or old enough not to hear that God's got a calling for us to do, and stand up, and take back, and be more. And you know what? It doesn't matter quite what it looks like, it doesn't matter quite how we do it, it doesn't matter quite the volume of...as I was sitting in this church this morning, I had a vision of a church that was very unique. It had a Coffee Shop over here, (Points to the right riser side) (Where Steve Elliott saw it a few years ago when the hospitality committee was meeting), and people were just sort of hanging out. It had some, you know, no aisles right here, and it had some easels and some artwork, and just some different stuff, and over here, there was some pews, and some tables, and over here, there was some wooden pews. But God wants every part of that Kingdom in One kingdom, glorifying Him. And we are so different, does that make sense? We do have different needs and different desires, and different wants, and different desires, and God was saying, “I want people to come together. I want people to live under authority, and I want you to take back ground.” As I was just sitting in this church this morning, and as I had done the walk and, I'll get back to my little story in a minute, but as I was sitting here, I sat down, I read that thing from David Crowder about taking back ground, and letting Jesus be the King of Kings, and letting Jesus be the Lord of Lords, and letting Him encompass all, and then take over, and have full right, full reign and full ownership, God said, “I want you to develop an invitation". And I was like, “Wow. What's an invitation mean?” So, this is a revelation to the team, cause we're going to actually be doing this in the next month, so, I've been praying for what to do, but God said, “Develop an invitation, an invitation for the next generation, a charge, an invitation, an encounter for your inheritance to stand with the Living King, and get a window of truth to take back this generation and the new generation coming up. And God just put a vision on me to making a letter of asking people to come on a journey, a journey of radical holiness. A journey of clarity, a journey of passion, a journey of vision, a journey that's going to set them free, a journey that's going to give them destiny, and passion and vigor. And God just gave me, like, a whole just couple of pages of “this is what I want you to do”, and this church is actually a part of that, of, there's been a couple of things that even in this church service this morning, um, we listened to a video on food, okay? And it was, uh, very well done of a documentary of these people, communicating their cause and need and effect, and, as I was sitting in this church, God was said, “Make a video, and get the people who have a destiny, what would you want to tell the next generation. What would you want to impart in the Spirit, of this next 15, 16, 17, 20 year old generation, what would you want to tell them, and how passionate would you want to tell them about waking up, and standing up, and growing up, taking back, taking land, ownership and development, ‘cause yes, to be really honest, guys, we are in a generation that has a time clock attached to it. And we are in a time where things are going to speed up, we are in a revelation generation, we don't know exactly the time, we don't know exactly how long, but I would say it's an exciting principal, and we need to do more, does that make sense?...to not just sit, to not just bask, to not just think we're doing something, but actually get a vision, and start to do it. And if you don't have a vision that's outside the box of whatever you've got right now, I want you to go home, and I want you to say, “God, give me a fresh vision. Give me a vision and a passion to”, (and I'm that's for you, young people, that's for you, it doesn't have an age to it, does that make sense? It does not have a passion of where you are, I want you to ask the Father, “God, what do you want me to do in this war? God, what do you want me to do in this generation? God, what are you calling me to become?” And I think God's asking, dear brothers and sisters, “I want you, I'm calling you, I'm pledging you, and I'm crying out for you, to make a declaration, to not live under sinful nature, to not live under fleshly ways, or carnal minds, or doubt, or misconceptions, or fear of failure, or anything that you would hold back as, that doesn't really stand up or line up or come under the heartbeat of the character of God, it doesn't really even come under God's principles. I really want you to say, if there is, mindsets and misconceptions, and worries and doubts, and hurts and fears and frustrations, and anger, worries, and ways, and even the…as I look around, people thinking, “oh, what are they thinking about me, what am I going to do, this, what am I going to do…that is the fear of man, and it needs to be broken off. And the fear of man is always worried about what is somebody else doing, what is someone else thinking, what are they going to say about me, do I look good enough? But, you know what? When we operate out of that, we don't, we don't step out with authority, does that make sense? We don't, we're fearful, and I don't believe God made man, well, He said it didn't He? What He said, what'd He say? “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind”…Amen, brother! Unconsciously, unconsciously, something happens in our minds. Unconsciously, the biggest battlefield is right here, (points to his head). Unconsciously, when you look in the mirror, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When something doesn't go quite well on the road, what do you feel, what do you hear, what do you see? When your loved one triggers an emotion, what do you hear, what do you feel, what do you see? When something goes inside of you…all I'm saying today, is, draw a line in the sand. And that line is very clear, God wants you to look at that stuff, and say “Enough is enough!” “Old is old”. And if that's putting some white stakes around your property line, and digging them in the ground, and getting a bottle of vegetable oil out of the counter and saying “God, this is your vegetable oil”, and walking out and taking the property line of your house back, your children, your grandparents, your loved ones, anybody in your family line, mom and dad, your brothers and sisters, anybody that you know, anybody that you love, anybody that's in your family, and you go, and you make an encounter with God, over your property line, and you go from corner to corner, and go “God, I'm going to go back in, this is holy ground, this is Your ground, and I want Your word, I want Your word to be the foundation that I stand on, that I live under, that I breathe in, I want You to give me acknowledgment of how to walk, and within there, I want fresh passion, I want fresh desire, I want a fresh calling, I want fresh wisdom, fresh understanding, and whatever's clouded my viewpoint, whatever's clouded my understanding, whatever's clouded my principles of thought, whatever's coming from anywhere, anytime, pre-today, I want it, I want it dismantled. I want it, dismantled. And if you run into a wall, get help. If you run into a milestone, get help. If you run into a place where you feel like this is never going to go, its never going to leave, its..get help If that's somebody that you love, if you can just walk up to them and say, can we pray over this area? If not, the Pastor of this church, the leadership of this church, get help. But do not walk, and live and allow that playfield over there, that minefield, that battlefield, that wrong thinking, that stinking thinking, that stuff that's going to hold you back, do not allow that from entering into the freshness. The freedom, the passion, vigor, the clarity, the purpose, the destiny, the god-ship. And just remember, that if you need to wash some busy-ness off, ‘cause really the root of busy-ness is not good…And busy-ness, will really stop you from holiness. ‘Cause busy-ness gets a lot of stuff in the way of you being quiet, of you resting, of you seeking, of you hearing, of you being Christ-like. So, I would say, maybe this is a good time to re-dial. Does that make sense? Re-calibrate, how well does a compass work, with a magnet underneath it? How well does a compass work if you set it on top of a vehicle? Maybe some of you need to take your compass, and get out in the wilderness for a little bit, and put your compass down, and say, “God, can you re-calibrate my compass? Recalibrate my understanding, recalibrate my vision, recalibrate my discernment, recalibrate my listening ear, recalibrate the ‘true north' of who You are, within me.” And maybe the magnet of my past has been so strong that it has been spinning out of control…by Your Spirit, by Your Holy Spirit, I ask that You would severe off, cut off, (does that make sense?), all around me, the ties, the yoke, the mantle of unforgiveness, the mantle of hurt, the mantle of fear, the mantle of frustration, the mantle of not being needed or wanted, the mantle of what somebody else has said, the mantle”…I know for myself, some of that mantle was pretty big, does that make sense? That mantle of rejection, because when I got saved, remember back when I was 11 years old, mom and dad started going through a divorce, and I felt like they didn't really, not want me, but I just didn't want to go through all the arguments, and I didn't want to go through all the trials, I didn't want to have that massive struggle, and I really didn't want to stay where I was. So I said, “Mom and Dad, I want to leave. Can I leave, is it possible that I board in this town”. So I started boarding, and I went to the church where I was at, and I put a sign up in the church, “Can I have someone to board with”, and, uh, the elder, one of the elders of the church said, “Yes, come board with us.” But little did I know, that he had a very unique principle of how to discipline his kids, so every night, he would take us down in the cellar, and cane us, many times, with this cane. Many times, he would just, “Your lights were on, you took to many cookies, you ate too much”…and I was like, “Wow! My dad wasn't saved, and this guy is saved, maybe Christianity is, maybe it's a different precept”…so in that attic, I mean in that basement with this Christian man, and with what he was doing to me, it was coming into conflict with what…it was coming into conflict with this~ (mind), and it was coming in conflict, and the conflict was, that my dad wasn't Christian, my dad wasn't saved, but here was an elder of a church, this was an elder of the church, the church I go to, and he gets up and does all this stuff at church, but he's doing all this in the basement of his house. And I'm like, “how does that jive, God?” Maybe I don't want to be a “God-guy”. Maybe I don't want God in me, because if I have to parent my kids this way, maybe I don't want that. And God gave me a revelation, and He said, “Rob, he has a very flawed foundation of how he sees Me. And he wants to discipline the ‘hell out of you'…and I was like “God, why does he see so much hell in me?” Because he didn't love me unconditionally, does that make sense? He was just a guy. And then at 14, I would put out my thumb, and I would hitch-hike all the way out to my parents, I would hitch-hike up to their house, and then one day, my brother went crazy, and he ran over my mother, and there was a big argument, and there was all sorts of stuff going on, and I was like, “Well, I really can't tell them what's going on…”, so I just hitch-hiked back home, and I thought, “I've just got to suffer it, and go through this, it's just a part of life.” And finally, I just came to a revelation, and I would just hide, and I would go into my bedroom and crawl into my bed and just read God's word, and God said, He started to speak to me, and He said, “Evil people, or hurting people, hurt others, but that's not My heart. So don't take on that hurt, walk away from it, and look at it from different eyes.” We all have a principle of something, somewhere, somehow going wrong. Or not quite the way we think its going to do, which forms all sorts of baggage, it forms all sorts of hurts, it forms all sorts of dysfunction. We are being formed, like it or not, does that make sense? From the time we are very very little to very very big, I don't want to say old, but big, you are in different stages of formation. So please, no matter where you are, child or young adult, or even middle aged, or older, examine your foundation. Examine how you see the God-head of Christ, examine how to take back ground…what stakes you're going to put in, and examine what you look like to the world. Examine, when you do have an opportunity to pray, are you being obedient? If God puts something in your spirit, at the grocery store, for somebody else, are you being that radical Jesus? Or, are you being that timid, shy person? Are you living out, the 100% destiny of God's fruit in your life, by what you do, by what you say, by how you act, and by what you do. Are you living on “Gloom Street” or “Praise Avenue”? Is Praise Avenue see-able? What sort of Christ are you modeling? What sort of Jesus do you look like? What sort of Jesus are you showing the world? What sort of Jesus is touching and reaching and loving. ‘Cause Jesus loves to touch. Jesus is an affectionate God. God is an affectionate God. Remember, we saw a hug up in the photo of the gypsies, if we can do nothing else, but say “God bless that person”, even if we don't say it verbally, are you Jesus with skin on? And are you allowing the skin of Jesus to touch others in every environment you're in. All that there, that whole window that I just drew up, examine, and examine, and examine anything that's keeping you from the freedom of walking and standing and knowing and hearing and living. Really, to be really honest, the question was, what do you do with these guys? That's what we do. With RAD, that's what we do. Get people to a whole new foundation of radically being set apart, to get a destiny, to serve the Father, to make a difference, to say, this is my life, this is destiny, and I want to make a difference. But I know, for a fact, as I look around this room, you're not too old. You're not too young…start to do it for yourself. Because God wants you to wake up, stand up, grow up, mature up, do whatever, He wants you to take back ground for yourself, but don't wait for somebody else to do it for you. Please don't wait. Please don't wait to be told. Please don't wait, and even, I'm going to talk to the people who are zero to twenty, right now. If you fit in that age bracket, zero through twenty, if you're waiting to be told, to read your word, if you're waiting to be told to get up in the morning, if you're waiting to be told to pray, if you're waiting to be told to do something that you know is right, but you're either too lazy, or don't want to, remember, I would examine the hunger level of your own lives, I would examine where you're going, what you're saying to yourself, “I can be radically filled with the Spirit of God”…God is not a respecter of persons, or age…so if you're zero to twenty today, please, look at your life, and say, that guy, he made a destiny, a declaration…I even made a declaration at 11 years old, outside of every box that I was going to, not going to have intimacy with any girl…I would say, if you're zero to twenty, start making declarations that are bigger than you. Start making dreams that are bigger than you. Start making choices that are bigger than you. Make some destinies that you can walk in, stand on and grow up in, that are yours, not because someone's told you to, not because you have to, but because you want to. …I'm going to pray for you…and if you feel that God's just arousing something, or pulling something, or pushing something, it may be between and wife, of just praying together. It may be between a son and a father, or a son and a daughter, or just loved ones, to go and just say, “I love you”, “I'm sorry”, or I think there's a lot of things that need to be said that don't get said; I just really want you to examine your heart, and say, “God, what do you want to say through me, that I'm not waiting for someone else first”…So, as we pray, just ask God, “God, what do You want to say through me? What do You want to do through me, what ground do You want to take back in me, and how do You want me to be more like You?” So, Holy Spirit, Lord Jesus, I pray that Romans 7 & 8 would be a declaration that we would live by Your Spirit. That we would stand by Your Spirit. That we would speak by Your Spirit. That Your Spirit, right now would bring a whole new destiny, and revelation, and a destiny of journey, and passion, and vigor. And I pray that right now, in this place, if there's anybody who needs to say I'm sorry, or would you forgive me, or I'm sorry for being disrespectful, or I'm sorry for rebelling, or I'm sorry for having my own way, or whatever it is across this place right now, that you would wake people up to say “enough is enough. I want to take back ground in my own life, in my own heart, in my own emotions, I want to look, and smell, and be more like Jesus Christ. I pray that You would put a calling out there, a bigger calling, an invitation to rock the world. An invitation to take back ground, an invitation to set people free, an invitation to live a radical journey of holiness. An invitation, Father God, to rattle the cages of people around this whole Richmond, Virginia, and surrounding areas that, You, Father God, would start to make an epicenter, of a trickle effect That would go out, and would be felt in many places, many towns, and many states, that would go out from this place, a ripple effect of holiness and obedience. Father, I just thank you for this group of people gathered around in this building, I thank You for what You are, and what You are doing, in Jesus' name. Thank You, Father, that You are good. Amen.
