The glory is the manifest presence of Jesus. Heaven is a presence-based culture, a relational environment. The glory of God is the source of life itself. And to live in His glory means to explore the great delight of who God is. Daily, there is an ever-increasing insight, revelation and experience of His goodness, of His kindness, of His greatness. Bill Johnson

25 I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint.’ Jeremiah 31:25 NIVUK https://bible.com/bible/113/jer.31.25.NIVUK

The heart of God for our personal fulfillment in life is bigger than we can imagine. That’s why He has covenanted with us to go “beyond all we could ask or think” (see Eph. 3:20). He is that kind of Father. Bill Johnson

4 Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. 5 For the Lord is good and his love endures for ever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. Psalms 100:4‭-‬5 NIVUK https://bible.com/bible/113/psa.100.4-5.NIVUK

It’s not hard to close the demonic portals. They are put there by human efforts so people under the authority of Jesus can close them through the blood of Jesus.

Unclean sacrifices are outweighed by the righteous sacrifice of Jesus

Luke 6:12-13.First time term apostle is used. Speak on behalf of someone else

1 Corinthians 12. Not everyone is an apostle or prophet, but everyone is something. We are all part of the body

Ephesians 4. Five fold ministry goal is about building up the body not about some people looking good 

Pastors are seen as top rung in church. But in Acts there are no pastors. Apostles and prophets are at the foundation. 

In Cuba many people have gone out claiming to be apostles and prophets, taking money and honour. Apostles and prophets are meant to be the foundation that empowers the church not take power away. 

Apostolic anointing brings familial aspect to church that replaces hierarchy and corporate governance. 

We need to receive ministry of apostles. Need to recognise who they are by the Holy Spirit. Takes a revelation. 

Philip snatched out of great meetings in order to share gospel with one man who took gospel to Ethiopia. 

“I am willing to spend and be spent….” 

Father and son model is the key to world evangelism 

2 Timothy 2:1-2. We are saved because Paul instructed Timothy as a father to a son 

Who is qualified to share the gospel? The demoniac man got healed, went home and told people what Jesus had done for him. Jesus commissioned him to share the gospel. 

We are transformed by seeing Jesus and imitating Him. 

What you are waiting for is already residing in you. Just believe the word of God! 

We need to stir up the gift that is in us. 

Prayer for Peru. 

Gates of Hades. 

Jim Anderson. Last 20 years in high valley in Peru 

Gates of Hades are spirit portals opened by areas of particular violence or occultic practices. Like a funnel for demons. 

All through the Andes peaks are Gates of Hades established by human sacrifice. Sense of crushing weight. The city and valley named ‘I am dying.”

Development of Apostles
Apostles go through long process of testing, and are finally approved by God.

1 Corinthians 4:1- entrusted by God that 

1 Thessalonians 2: 3-4 – approved, entrusted,  tested. 

The testing is to teach us how to trust.

Also tests of honesty, integrity. 

Tests in life you don’t know it’s a test

1 Peter 1:5-7… tested genuiness of your faith. 

James 5:10-11. Remain steadfast in the Lord. 

Three stages in development of an apostle 

1. Call. 
2. Time of preparation and tests. Ministry graces. 
3. Positioned to represent Christ personally. More difficult trials. Love, maturity, humility. 

John Alley and Bob Hauselman 

Psalm 133. Give hearts to leaders brings anointing that runs down the robe of the High Priest (Christ). Robe =covering 
Isaiah 4:2-6. Mount Zion represents the church. The Lord will create a cloud by day, fire by night, a canopy, shelter, shade, refuge. This is covering. 
Revelation 7:15-16. He who sits on the throne will be their shelter 
We are not called to be independent but interdependent. 
God does not hide things from us, but He does hide things for us, usually in other people. 
It’s not the quality of the father that matters, but the attitude of our heart as a son. David’s attitude towards Saul. 
We choose to know an apostle no longer according to the flesh. When you give your heart to someone and love them regardless of the outward appearance, then the Lord opens your eyes to see a greater glory. 
Bob and John are each other’s covering. 
Apostle needs to have love and trust of local church. Where there is a breakdown in local leadership, apostle is called on by the church to come and bring correction or whatever is needed. 
Apostolic council – senior leaders who can be called in if the apostle can’t come.
