First evening session opened with representation of local tribal leaders on stage led by Ps Esther welcoming the Lord and the people. Leaders declare to surrender and yield to the One Most High, lifting Him up in His highest place. Opening was sealed with leaders on stage kneeling with foreheads touching the ground, taking the posture and expression of worship once stolen by the enemy but now redeemed for His people. Native dancers begin drumming tribal rhythm with bamboo sticks symbolising a release of healing and freedom. Worship team followed with tribal opening song, welcoming His light into their land. Worship was led into many dynamics, weaving Tribal with the Global body, high praises and deep surrender. David Demian went on stage highlighting the God we believe in — the God of Israel as the God above all gods. Hebrew origin of “worship” is a posture. Time for the Body of Christ to redeem true worship for the God of Israel. A call is released to the whole room to kneel into posture of worship. Whole room responds, not one person is left sitting or standing. Worship of the Most High did not stop there, the next thirty minutes the Lord started releasing spontaneous voices of worship from the crowd, tongues and new songs in native languages culminating in a symphony of worship. ONE voice with harmonies. The Holy Spirit harmonising the Body AS ONE. Session ended with powerful declaration of who God is: “You have no rival, You have no equal, now and forever God You reign”. Three large banners brought to the front of stage for tribes to pass through, walking together in small groups as His sovereignty is proclaimed and sealed through the night. A night of honouring the Lord and lifting Him up in the highest place.

FEB 8 NOON • Session 3

Representative from France shares his heart over Malaysia and testimony of how the Lord led him to this gathering. He is here today in response to a vision the Lord gave him 22 years ago and recognises the native people here as the exact ones he saw in his vision over two decades ago. He presents a prophetic painting to Malaysia with the message of all tribes becoming ONE tribe in Christ. Worship flowed into theme of family, entering into deeper realms of love for one another. David asks the people to make small circles with different tribes represented, entering into the spirit of family together. Orang Asli representation invited on stage and sent to each circle to receive honour in place of their history of oppression.

An afternoon of deep connection, love, and honour between the tribes and people groups.

FEB 8 EVENING • Session 4

Worship started with a song about knitting our hearts in one love, one faith in His kingdom: “Your Kingdom reigns when we are family”. The Lord soon filled the room with his weighty Presence once again in a time of prolonged silenced. People were encouraged to release the deep cry in their hearts. Many knelt, bowed down, and prostrated in an hour of deep surrender without the worship team leading. Some began to be caught in holy laughter. Corporate song of sweet worship was released by one of the young people reflecting the longing of the people’s hearts. The room was once again led into a deep, prolonged moment of worship as people continued to release their longing for His Presence. His weighty Presence filled the room and lingered all evening as various tribes released unique dances in different corners of the room, one man in particular gestured as if orchestrating a symphony. One of the young people felt as though the Lord was singing a love song over His children. Corporate response: “Dance with me, oh Lover of my soul, to the song of all songs. Romance me, oh Lover of my soul, to the song of all songs”.

David Demian: The Lord is after our hearts. “Busy” in Chinese is dead heart. There is a fight over the heart of the native people and this nation. The Lord will win the heart of Malaysia. That is why His presence has been lingering so strongly since the beginning of the gathering. It is the Presence that distinguishes us from all others on the earth. When the Lord does this it is a statement to the principalities and powers that these are My people and I am with them. The time for Malaysia is now, give Me your heart. A jealousy over you for your hour of visitation has come. In time of worship there was a fight in the spirit realm — the Father declaring “they’re Mine”. He is looking for our response — “yes I’m yours”. The Lord is asking all the tribes and people groups: “will you marry Me?” Tonight is a proposal of the heart of the Father to the hearts of His children. When we say “I do” we are going Him the legal right to be our husband to protect and cover us. Giving Him the right to cast out every spirit that does not belong to Him in this land.

David invites the Body to respond to the deep longing and invitation from the Father’s heart to His Bride. Starting with the Orang Asli followed by other Malaysian native tribes, international natives and non-natives walked out tribe by tribe as each people group stepped out as a declaration to the Lord: “You have my heart. You are our husband. We are Yours.”

FEB 9 MORNING • Session 5

The morning started with songs of unity, declaring the commanded blessing of Psalm 133 over the Body. Drums, tribal percussion and gongs led the worship into an array of tribal release. Ron Sawka declares over natives: “You are sons and daughters! You are warriors!” Ron leads natives in warrior gesture declaring, “I am His warrior! God is leading us!” Each native person declaring and witnessing to another: “I am the head not the tail!”. Taiwan natives join the stage declaring the identity of native people with Taiwanese indigenous song. Orang Asli are led into travail. A young Orang Asli brother releases a deep cry. At 11:11 younger generation Anak Negeri joins in with cry. Travail and trembling increases as Anak Negeri release mamangkis (tribal war cry).

The One who fights, who leads all the tribes.” Four local leaders are invited on stage representing Bahasa, English, Mandarin, and Tamil speaking churches in Malaysia dedicating their lives and the language group they represent to the Lord as a response to His wedding proposal to the Malaysian Body. Mainland and overseas Chinese leaders representing the Global Body join the stage and share their heart towards Malaysia: A new door has been opened, a new era has come. The Lord has found a body yielded in total submission to Him. Now is the time for Malaysia and the nations. China leaders invite all to declare together: “Lord, we are here and we agree with Your will. We say that we are fully submitted to You in this new era. Lead us and we will follow you to the end. May your Kingdom come. We align with You.”

FEB 9 AFTERNOON • Session 6

Canadian and American natives invited on stage to present a gift to Malaysian natives. They are honoured to be here for such a time as this. They come bringing peace and love. Individual gifts are offered to three native leaders representing Sabah, Sarawak, and Semenanjung. Each gift carried unique meanings — symbols to dig into native culture and redeem their ancient ways for His glory, symbol of the bear representing love for the family, symbol of salmon as a rich resource of the land for the Lord to release the bounty of the nation into the tribes. Taiwan representatives take the stage to present their gifts. Leader declares native culture as a runway for the Lord to accomplish His will in the land. Deep native cry was released in worship that followed with Anak Negeri young man releasing a unique tribal melody in tongues, spearheading the native Body into yet another time of birthing. David declares a reinforcement from heaven and an increase of angels in the auditorium. Taiwan indigenous tribe of Bunong lead native dance representing an offering of sacrifice unto the Lord. Taiwan native worship mamas release tribal song welcoming the Spirit of God into the land and the Father’s invitation for His children to enter His embrace.

David Demian: Word from the Lord: “consummation”. The Lord is saying to Malaysia: “no more dating, I want your word”. The enemy is angered by what has taken place so the Lord is asking His people now “will you marry Me?”. When we say yes, we come under His covering. He wants to start with the native peoples and the nations represented here. The Lord is using a critical mass to release something in the Body. The enemy is afraid of ancient anointings. Enter into the higher realm of the thoughts of God. The Spirit of God is taking back what belongs to Him, the native people in their simplicity, to release His purposes in the spirit realm.

FEB 9 EVENING • Session 7

Worship began with a knitting of hearts as we declared our unity grounded in one love and one faith. A fresh outpouring of joy and freedom was released as the whole room erupted in high praises and dancing. Not one person remained an observer. Younger generation led the family into greater release of rejoicing. Young people from Korea join the stage as the whole family pressed into the full release of freedom. The Lord wooed the hearts of the people to long for the deep. His invitation to us is loud and clear and we respond in song: “We’ll come away with You, it’s never too late for us. You have a plan for us, it’s gonna be wild, it’s gonna be great, it’s gonna be full of You”.

David Demian: Every act of obedience brings a breakthrough. We are not afraid of shaking, an unshakeable Kingdom exists in the world today. The Lord is preparing Asia to take a major part in leading the nations. Isaiah 19. Malaysia a joint between Asia and the Middle East. With the Lord bringing Malaysia into place He has to raise up the original people of the land with the authority to open and close the gate. The Lord is saying to Malaysia “this is your year”. The Lord will shake whatever can be shaken, and perform the removal of what has been shaken. The Body of Christ needs to be ready in the spirit to occupy. The Lord knows the heart of Malaysia and has heard her cries. Your prayers have not been forgotten. Do not be afraid Malaysia, there is no power on earth and heaven that can resist God’s plan when He says it is time. Exodus 12: 41 — all the ARMIES of the Lord when out from the land of Egypt. Even the slaves became armies on that very same day.

1. There is no pharaoh that can resist God’s plan
2. There are no gods that can resist the God of Israel
3. Your status will not change His plans

He will make us willing in the day of His power. Exodus 13:18 — the children of Israel went up in MARTIAL ARRAY out of Egypt. Natives of Malaysia, don’t look down on yourselves! The Lord is raising you up as gatekeepers to take up your authority in the spirit realm. The rest of Malaysia must occupy when the gates have been opened. There is enough unity in the Global Body of Christ breakthrough. You now have the authority to be strategic. I need to set the captives free in your family of North Korea. “Let My people go”. This very day the North and South Korean Olympic team walked together under one Korean flag. This is Malaysia’s ordained hour to walk in all He has planned for her. When the Lord speaks even the slaves can become a mighty army. The Word has been spoken from Your mouth. Malaysia’s time is NOW. We speak to every demonic power supply: “Hear the Word of the Lord! God is shaking whatever can be shaken!”. Natives of Malaysia, You belong to the Lord God of Israel. You have given yourself to Him. ARISE! Take your place at the gates. Speak the word of the Lord boldly. The Lord God is your husband and your Lord. He will cover and protect you. The covering of the giants have been removed. Body of Christ: this is your time to see the fulfilment of all that He has promised. No more will anyone say where is their God. The God of Israel will show Himself mighty. Let the King of Glory come in. This is Your land.

FEB 10 MORNING • Session 8

The family came before the Lord in high praises, celebrating and thanking Him for all He has accomplished in our midst the last three days. The people were led into a moment of silence, in awe of His Presence and who He is. A sister from Mainland China begins crying out and experiences birth pains. She is reminded of the birth pains for the Chinese people that were released in Hong Kong in 2011. She witnesses a new birth in Malaysia. Leaders of Malaysia are invited on stage to seal and bless the land. Internationals surround the Malaysians, the local and global family proclaim blessings over the nation, that all His purposes and promises would be fulfilled.

Internationals invited to come forward as Malaysians declare blessings over the nations.
