Before the speech there was an old lady who spoke in tongues and Tolås interpreted it:
I know exactly (how you feel) ……, so I first of all want to lift you up on my lap. I do not primarily ask what you can do for me, I do not demand that you serve me, I only wish and long for you to lean your head close to my heart, and be there on my lap, be there in my presence, this is the resting place that is the starting point for all service, this is the resting place where you can get new strength, here is healing for your wounded soul, here you can feel the promise that I want to give you by my hand, I lift you – lift you in your inner self and I lift you back to a life of dignity, for you are precious in my eyes. I didn’t take you on installments, I paid the whole price and it cost my own blood, therefore you will also feel that you will be able to lower your shoulders, you can relax, be my child, I who have said through my word, see how much love the Father has shown us, that we should be called children of God, and we are. You are my child, and as my child I will take care of you. Let me take care of my children and the work of my hands, says the Lord.
And because you are a child, you also have a share in inheritance rights, not only have I given you child rights, but I have also given you inheritance rights. You are the heir of my promises, you are the heir of the heavenly home. But you must know that also the glorious promises that apply to that – the glory that lies ahead, when you will one day see me as I am and become like me, those promises must be carefully fulfilled. But I have not only given you promises for what is to come, I have also given you promises for your journey towards this wonderful home. And I have given you promises to which you are also heir, promises that apply, right in the middle of the situation that may meet you in everyday life. When you feel the pressure, when you feel that the discouragement and worry will overwhelm you, then I want, says the Lord, that you will open your testament, and then you will get to read, both the old and the new, you will get to read it as an heir. You shall be allowed to read it and take it to heart, it is valid, says the Lord, for I who am the testator, I went to death, the will is valid, read it as the heir and let it lift you up, and let what you read be my strong hand that lifts you up and gives you new courage. I, who have given the promises that lie ahead, I have also given the promises that apply today. And you will notice that this is how you will be carried, this is how you will be lifted forward. And you will be allowed to throw what weighs you down on me. I will never let you go, I will never leave you. I am faithful all the way, all day, and every day, stay close to me. Hallelujah.
Kjell-Arve Tolås gave a speech on the theme “God’s arm is outstretched”, taken from Exodus 17,16.
At the end of the meeting, a young man spoke in tongues and Tollås interpreted it:
…I who sit on the throne, says the Lord, I have the overview, when you are in the middle of the trial, you see what will block the way, and you think the way is impassable, it is impassable. But you should know that I, who sit on the throne, have the full overview. And therefore you must be safe, you must leave your case in my hands. And you will get to experience along the way, exactly when you need it and in the way you need it and need it, so you will know again and again that a hand is exactly unreached from this throne.
This is not the throne of condemnation, it is not the throne of the great white judgement, but I sit on the throne of grace, says the Lord, and I have opened access to this throne by my own blood, so you will be able to step forward with boldness, and you will experience that when you step in, I will meet you with mercy and grace in help at the right time. I can come in my own way, by making my hand public, but most often I come in collaboration with one of mine, who has taken refuge in me, I remind them of intercession, I remind them of a visit, I remind them of an encouraging word, I remind them to also come to meet you in such a way that you get to experience the laying on of hands and get to experience the warmth of you. It is I who meet you in that way as well, through mine. And you will also be allowed to be a tool for me, through which I will work, so that my power also flows through your weak hands, for help and deliverance. Do not let your hands sink into discouragement and despair. You are a member of my body, and I will use you, I will use you as a channel for my blessing and you will be the bearer of my glory. And then you will get to experience that I, who am on the throne, have the full overview, and you will get to be safe, secure in my almighty hands. So be bold. Amen. Amen. In Jesus name.
