So two things, it's one thing to receive, but it's another thing to treasure, which means to esteem highly, and that seems to be the first step that is given here in this exhortation. If you receive my words and treasure my commands within you, that's Proverbs chapter two verses one and two. And Jeremiah 12 talks about, you know, to 12 and verse two almost actually talks about the Andrages chapter 12.   So something's happening here at like the distinct, the difference between pronouncing or using the name of the Lord, taking up the name of the Lord and seeing the things that are right, sounding right, and what's happening deep within. And what the Lord is looking for is going beyond the superficial, going beyond what we can see and hear to the heart of the matter, which is what is going deep within. Are we treasuring? In addition to receiving, are we treasuring? The same thing we see here, Jeremiah is saying, you know, regard to the righteous, but it can happen very well happen to us as believers as well that we are in their mouth. I mean, he, his name isn't there in our mouths, but is it really, are we retaining in our minds as well, which means that our meditation thoughts and what occupies our minds, what occupies our imagination, right, is a Lord. Are we treasuring in that sense, right, the Word of God, the, the precepts of God, and everything else? Are we treasuring, right? So I just wanted to leave us with that question and as we pray today, right, so let's, let's pray. Father God, we, we come before you Lord, we're all humility God. We come before you Lord as, as we read your Word, as we read your Word just now. Lord, your desire for us, your desire for us is to, that we would receive first and foremost, and that we would treasure, that we would just not be calling upon your name, your name and your Word. Anyways, Lord, will not be just things that we speak out from our mouths, but really, oh God, that everything about your Word, the principles will take root in our minds, in our hearts, that there will be a treasuring, there will be an esteeming of who you are and your Word, your way is God, deep within us Lord, deep within us. Lord, enable us to do that even today, or if for some reason, if, if kind of moved away, if for some reason we have lost that sense of awe and wonder and, and God, if we have stopped treasuring you in our hearts, treasuring your Word in our hearts, Lord, I pray that we would come back to that place of treasuring God, of something of great immense value, priceless value, that we would treasure your Word, treasure your ways, treasure you in our hearts. Yes, Lord, we choose to do that this morning. We thank you in Jesus' name, we pray. Amen. Amen. Okay, hello to those who joined during the prayer. Yeah, let's continue from where we, where we ended last class. So we looked at, we were looking at restoration of our soul, right? Restoration of our mind, will, emotions, intellect, imagination and everything. We saw the problems of the soul and the various ways because of which there could be problems in that soul realm, that area and, and we saw that God's desire, God's will for us is that this area, very important area, be restored because it's going to drive, you know, all other areas and it's connected, so connected to our actions, so connected to the things that we, things that we plan and analyze and, and do and so our destiny itself, right? So it's so connected, so this area, God wants, wants us to thrive. You know, we saw that in 1 Thessalonians 5 and the last few verses where says that when may the God preserve, may our God preserve us whole spirit, soul and body, until it's coming again, may our soul, whole spirit, soul and body be preserved, blameless at the coming of our Lord. So that's, that's God's desire and will, right? So we saw that God wants to restore, but what is the basis for that restoration, right?  So what do we base on? So obviously it's based on the word of God and we need to know where, you know, where it is, it's stated so we can, our faith can grow in this, so we can meditate on it and you can confess and we can be strong in this and not only for our own selves, but also for the sake of others, God entrusts to us or brings our way. So we can give be, you know, a source of hope, like we can be a vessel to bring hope, to bring restoration and healing, right? So we saw that God restores our soul and that's the testimony of the Psalmist, right? He says in Psalm 23 and he says that God restores my soul. So let me just share the notes. Excuse me. So Psalm 23 verse 3, the Psalmist says he restores my soul and he restores everything that is battered, that is hurting, the realm of my soul. He's the one who restores my soul and he brings it back to a place of thriving and flourishing. So what is the basis for that? We saw that it's a journey, it's a process, it can be instantaneous, but it is also a process, right? So healing and deliverance, emotional healing and deliverance is something that is provided, that is given to us on the rhythm to work of Christ on the cross, through the rhythm to work of Jesus on the cross, right? We see that, yes, we have received salvation, we received forgiveness of sins, we have, we are born again through the work of Christ, that the entire debt of sin was paid for and all that is, you know, we know all that is there because of the rhythm to work of the Lord on the cross. And we see that it includes this restoration, this healing of our emotions and deliverance, okay? So when we look at the finished work of the Lord on the cross, let's just go to Isaiah chapter 53, right? Isaiah, maybe we can just read from verses 3 onwards, let me just take it up here. Okay, Isaiah 53 verses 3, 4 and 5, right? So verse 5 is the one which talks about great transaction, that great exchange that happened, okay? So 53 was, 3 says, he is despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief, and we hid as it were our faces from him, he was despised and did not esteem him, and we did not esteem him. Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows, okay? He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows, okay? And when we look at the Hebrew there, means the word that is used there is the word which is translated into the English as graves, it means disease, it means sickness, right? It is also translated into anxiety and so on, right? So he has carried, he has borne our griefs and what does he carried? He has carried our sorrows, okay? And that word means grief, pain, okay? Grief or anguish of pain, mako, right? He has carried our sorrows. And it says that we did esteem him, stricken, smitten of God and afflicted, and he was wounded, he was bruised for our transgressions. So transgressions talking about great sin, he was bruised for our iniquities, right? So we see that, well, this is what happened. This is what the Lord carried for our sake. He carried the physical ailment, talks about sickness. He also carried our anguish, our sorrow, our grief, our pain, okay? And then we see that at the end of verse five that by his, I'm sorry, the punishment for our peace, the chastisement for our peace was upon him and by his stripes we are healed, by his stripes we are healed. Because of this great act of this work of redemption across, by this sacrifice, we are healed, okay? And that's the confidence that we have every time when we go and pray, right? And because of this finished work, whatever he purchased, whatever he redeemed us from, it is ours. So it says here that the cross actually provided, made a way for us to receive this healing for our emotions, healing for our deliverance, okay? So because of the work of the cross, let's look a little deeper into what is it that we are delivered from, right? Colossians one, verses 13 and 14, he has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of his Lord, in whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sin. So it means that, you know, John 1010 talks about the Lord Jesus spoke of the agenda of the enemy, okay? Very clearly described John 10 verse 10, the thief does not come except to steal and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly, okay? So there's a stealing and killing and destroying that is happening and stealing could be stealing of, you know, whatever, you know, physical health, emotional health and killing and destroying, right? All that God has instituted and all that is good, a perversion, a twisting of all that is good, the enemy comes to do that with the Lord has come that we might have life and life in its fullness, okay? So the cross talks about this great turnaround, this great transaction, exchange that has happened. So he has delivered us because of the cross, he has delivered us from the power of darkness, he has delivered us from the power of darkness, which means from the clutches of the enemy, from the influence of the enemy, he has delivered us and he has conveyed us into light, into the kingdom of the Son of the light. So when we talk about kingdom, we are talking about rule, we are talking about rule and reign and the scripture says that, okay, he has conveyed us into the rule and reign of the Son, right? So that's wonderful news and that's because of the cross. Let me just open up 13 Colossians 113, okay? From the power of darkness. I just want to look at that word power, which is, you know, delegated authority from the exusia or the delegated authority or the, or we could say from the capacity, from the potential, from the influence of the enemy, right? So he has delivered us and where has he conveyed us? He has conveyed us into the rule and reign, the realm of the Son's reign, he has conveyed us into this kingdom, okay? So, well, Satan has no influence or no right over us. The, the level of influence that the enemy has is, is the kind of permission that we give the enemy. Now it can happen through a lie. We believe a lie, we give the enemy authority or influence over our lives. Maybe we are, we are tempted, we are, you know, we give in and we give in to the influence of the enemy. Maybe we are deceived, we give in to the interests of the enemy. Maybe we are intimidated, you know, so fear, we are in fear, something that the enemy might do, we give in to the influence of the enemy, right? So we see that the level of influence that the enemy has is directly proportional to, you know, what we allow, what we have given, which is why we see that we need to stand strong, right? Resist, which means to stand strong and say no, and submit, submit to God, submit, come under the leadership, come under the, you know, the, the authority, the rule and reign, the realm of the rule and reign of the king, submit to God, submit to his lordship, submit to the authority of the word, submit to the influence of the Holy Spirit. And it's a dual responsibility, resist and he will, the enemy will flee, right? So, so Colossians 113 talks about that and he has conveyed as he's already done it because the work of the cross. So, so the enemy does not have influence over our lives, the enemy does not have any kind of authority over our lives, right? We need to be firm about that, we need to be convinced, convinced, convicted and convinced about that. Acts chapter 26 and verse 18, right? So this is the reason he came. This is what he did. Let's read verse 18. So, so Paul is actually talking, sharing his testimony, right? He's sharing his testimony and, and he's talking about the whole thing that happened on the way to Damascus and he's having this conversation with King Agrippa. So, so that's, that's a context in which he says this, he recounts the words of the Lord Jesus and it says here, let's say it's read from verse 15 onwards. So I said, who are you Lord? And he said, I'm Jesus whom you're persecuting but rise and stand on your feet for I have appeared to you for this purpose to make you a minister and witness both of the things which you've seen and of things which I will yet reveal to you. I will deliver you from the Jewish people as well as from the Gentiles to whom I send you now to open their eyes in order to turn them from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me. Okay.  This is what I want to do. I want to open their eyes in order to turn them from darkness to light. Okay. Open the eyes of the understanding, give them revelation and so that they are not spiritually blind anymore that they get their understanding to turn them from darkness to light, which means this is it. This is the contrast from the power of Satan to God from the power of Satan from the hold of Satan to God himself that they may receive forgiveness and so on. So, so this is the, this is the reason that he died on the cross. And this is what he accomplished on the cross, the work of the cross. So you see, it goes a lot deeper and it's not, yes, it, it, you know, the work of the cross justifies us. So one time thing, but also as we go through life, as we get this understanding that, yes, I'm in a different, I'm under a different authority now. I'm no longer under that authority and no longer under that influence. Then you might try, and you might try to make some inroads in all this, but and it, but it's all come to an end because I have been conveyed into a different authority to an authority of the, of God. Right. So we, we understand that. Okay. Let's look at Romans five and verse 12. Romans five and verse 12. Through one man, sin entered the world and death through sin. And thus death spread to all men because all sinned talks about the source talks about the entry of the influence of the enemy. Right. And you look at verse chapter six and verse six and also verse 14. What does it say, knowing this, that our old man was crucified within that the body of sin might be done away with that we should no longer be slaves of sin. So we should no longer be slaves of sin, no longer be under the authority or the influence of sin. Verse 14. For sin shall not have dominion over you for you are not under law, but under grace. So there's been a change. There's been a change of dispensation. There's a change of ownership. There's a change of influence. So sin shall not have dominion over you for you are under grace. Okay. So just like the first, through the first man, Adam, through the first Adam, we have come under all the entire humanity came under the authority and the influence of the enemy through the last Adam. We have been purchased. We've been taken back. Right. So it includes our emotional health and well-being. It includes, you know, all that. So we see that we've been taken from darkness into the same goes for generational bondages and things from what is handed over from generation to generation. Maybe let's just read first Peter chapter 1 and verse 18 where it says, knowing that you were not redeemed from corruptible things like silver or gold from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers. Talks about the previous generation, what you received, what you received by either teaching what you received otherwise just handed over from generation to generation, but you were actually redeemed from corruptible. We're not redeemed with corruptible things, but it's, it talks about, but with the verse 19 talks about the precious blood of Christ as of a land without a spot. Okay. So we've been taken from darkness into light. The second thing is from curse to blessing. Okay. So the redemptive work of the Lord on the cross has moved us out, taken us out from the curse of the law. Okay. When you look at the curse of the law, it means that, okay, we saw that, okay, a curse is like a negative blessing bringing in negative things into our lives, a promise of negative things into our lives. Blessing is a promise of good things that God has in store for us, bringing it, bringing that into our lives. Galatians 3, 13, 14 says Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law. Okay. And it's, it's amazing when we actually consider the work of the cross and we consider what we have through the cross, what we have come into because of the cross, what we are receiving, continuing to receive because of the cross. It's amazing. Right. So from curse to blessing, Christ has redeemed us because of the law. Verse 14, that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Okay. That the blessing of Abraham might come upon, you know. So this great exchange, we have, instead of the curse, we have received the blessing. Galatians 2 and verse 14, having wiped out, this is what he did on the cross, he wiped out the handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us, and he has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. So the law gave us the standard. The law, in a way, was actually protective, gave us the boundary, but the law also had consequences, or had consequences, or the disobedient was met with consequences. And we see that list in the Utronomy 28, the consequence of obedience, which means blessing, and the consequence of disobedience, which is all these curses. And you see, look at this blessing, and you look at the curse. It affects all realms, financially, relationally, materially, physically, emotionally, and so on. So you see that it is actually a wholesome package. If you look at the curse, you understand, oh yeah, it's actually, all these areas of my life are actually open to the curse, or we're open to the curse of the law. And now that I'm redeemed, all these areas of my life are now coming under this realm of blessing, because of the cross. So we see that, yeah, I have actually been taken out from darkness into light. I have been taken out from curse to blessing. The third thing that we see is that the defeat of Satan. The defeat of Satan and Christ's victory over Satan is our victory, because he has actually handed over that victory to the cross, on the cross, to the Church. Because we walk in the victory that he has actually got for us. You know, Isaiah 53-12 talks about the fact that he was poured out, his soul was poured out unto death, and he was numbered with the transgressors and so on. The easy to read version says this, I will treat him as one of my people, I will give him the rewards of one who wins in battle, and he will share them with his powerful ones. He will divide the spoil, that's the old English, and he will share them, he will share the rewards with his powerful ones. So the victory that he got, he shared that reward with us. Colossians 2 and verse 15, having disarmed principalities and powers, he made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it. Hebrews 2 verses 14 and 15, inasmuch as then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, he himself, likewise, shared in the same that through death, he might destroy him who had the power of death, that is the devil, and release those who, through fear of death, were all their lifetimes subject to bondage. It's talking about us. Releasing from the fear of death or the torment of death, fear is torment, anguish in the emotional realm, fear of death, all the while subject to bondage because of this fear, being in a place of imprisonment. So we have been set free and we have been released into this newness. So let's just go with it again. We have received wholeness. We have been released from darkness into light, conveyed into light, and from all the realm of every curse we have been released into, blessing. And all this has happened because of the finished work of the cross. And about the victory that he won for us is actually, the victory that he won over Satan is our victory. That victory is ours as the body of Christ, as the one who has given us his authority to that victory is ours as well. So this is something for us to internalize. This is something for us to take note of and walk in. Whenever there is torment, whenever there is something that we see that is going on a downward spiral in the realm of our emotions and the realm of our thoughts, we need to understand that the work of the cross covers this as well. The work of the cross, the reach of the work of the cross, the finished work of the cross, the reach of the victory is in this area also. The redemption is in this area also. So that's why we can boldly, unashamedly, without any doubt, receive and expect and have faith for things to change in the whatever sickness of the soul that we talked about. And we can minister the same because Christ did for us, Christ did for the one to whom you are ministering and praying and that they can also journey into wholeness. Now let's look at the new creation life. So we looked at one of the foundations for emotional and wholeness, which is the finished work of the cross. The second thing is the very fact that we are new creations in Christ Jesus. We have new creation in Christ Jesus, which means that we have received something because of what happened. We have been made new. First thing is the cross has changed. There's a lot of things. We have access to new things. We have been conveyed into a new area of authority and we have come under new authority. So here the new creation itself, talking about us personally, 2nd Corinthians 5 verse 17 and 18, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. All things have passed away because behold, all things have become new. All things are of God. So we have been transformed. We have been conformed to the image of Christ, so which means that everything that is not of him. Now this is important. We are any creation. We know that in the soul realm, we have new creation in our spirit. We know that the soul realm was left untouched. We know that that is because of free will. Now that undrenewed or untouched part of us, when we came into the kingdom, when we became new creations, now we have the freedom and the authority to submit to God. We have the freedom and authority to renew it, to renovate it with the word of God and by the power of the Holy Spirit. So we see certain things in us and we're not really proud of it. We see certain things and we are actually we are ashamed. Certain habits, certain personality traits, can that change? So we need to stop saying that I am like this only. I am like this only and really blame it and then really settle for that realm of life. This God has called us to a higher realm. We are new creations. So we don't have to settle for anything less than what he has called us for, what he has invited us for. So we are new creations and born again. Yes, I'm born again in the spirit and we've learned about all that we have become in Christ, all the wonderful things that we are victorious and so on. But we also know that the soul realm needs to experience this. The soul realm needs to be renewed to this truth. So all that, the enemy maybe has made inroads, all that the enemy has maybe not just the enemy but it could be even our own fleshly understanding or flesh, the choices that we have made in the flesh because of our unrenewed thinking. Now we know that we can change. That is possible to change because we are new creations.  Well, that doesn't have to be there. That can change. Why? Because I'm a new creation. All things have passed away. All things have become new. My appetite can change. My desire, my action, my imagination, everything can change and will change when I continue to, and I'm just going back to Romans 6 when I continue to present every member to him. And Romans 12 talks about how we can renew. So maybe things are so very weak in certain areas of our minds. We just get so weary and tired and we even start thinking about certain things and of the past. The fact is this, Romans 6 verse 13, do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. Presenting, which means to consecrate, which means to surrender, to yield every member as an instrument of righteousness to him. And then he talks about the outworking of that, that sin cannot have dominion over. So many times we think over that and then we think of action, that sin, an outworking of sin and an act of sin. Well, certain things that the sin has influence under also comes under that, in the sense that maybe things that are withholding us back from really walking in the fullness of what God wants us to, things that are withholding us, things that are restraining us really in the emotional realm. When things change in our mind and our emotions, then we see that things change in our life and action. That's why Paul says in Romans 12 very clearly, be transformed. So we're going to be looking at that again. He says be transformed by the, there is transformation, there is transformation that is possible, there is transformation that is available and it's all tied down to the realm of our soul. Be transformed by the renewing of our mind. So we can either conform to the world by not renewing or we can be conformed to the image, new creation image by renewing our mind, our soul. So we see that we are consecrated, we are purchased, we are redeemed and all the good things that have happened because of who we are in Christ because we are new creation. So that's another basis. Why we can say that, yes, this is the basis for my restoration, the restoration of my soul. This is the basis for that. And I could boldly, very boldly step up and say, yes, I'm receiving this. I can pray for this. I can work towards this and it's not, it's not something that is against the will of God. It is something that Christ, it is there in the Word, Word of God. It is very scriptural. It is something that I can be, I can be, I can be fully confident of and I could expect change to happen. So the thing is this, that when we know that this is the possibility, this is how change can happen. So then the thing is that the key for change, the key for restoration is not modification of behavior. In one sense it is. Some certain choices that we, so we see that it's much deeper. It is at the thought level. It is at the level of emotions. It at the level of receiving revelation and being convinced and acting out of it. So without the receiving of this revelation, without the receiving of this understanding, like when we try to change our, modify our behavior, there is no power because it's not based on truth. It could be based on fear. I must do this. It could be based on, I'll do this and then I'll be accepted. It's not based on truth. It's based on a lie. It's based on fear. It's based on torment, maybe. But when I base it on truth, when we base it on this revelation of what has happened to us, what was done for us, then when it's based on truth, then there is power. Okay, so we'll just pause here a bit before we go into the next one, which is authority. Any questions or any thoughts that you might have? We are looking at the basis for restoration. Any questions? Any thoughts at all, anything that you might want to share? Okay, so this is great news because we see, maybe as a minister of God, as ministers of God, we see that there are some subun things in people and people are unwilling to change and we've just tried. We've tried telling them. We've tried showing them. It's not happening. We tried maybe threatening them, told them, okay, this is the rule we need to follow. Then things happen. When we go a little deeper and expose people to the truth and expose people to what the potential they can be or the potential that they have as new creation, what they have become, what they have actually had, this is actually who you are. The life that you're living or the kind of life that you're living restrained by your emotions and restrained by your fears is not the life that you're called to live. The people themselves are really frustrated when they live a life far below what they're called to live. When we expose them to the truth and when they get a revelation of the truth, then there is the inspired change and not only just inspired because inspiration out empowerment will just fade away, but there's no consistent action that happens. Somebody asked a question? Yes. So Pastor, if you're exposing someone to the truth and let's say you've been doing that for years. I've been doing that for a girl for years and you can't see any change and sometimes you go them seeing worse. If you didn't speak with them for a month, you see them getting worse, but sometimes you feel like it's the same thing over and over again. It's not a very different thing as also, but it's the same thing that they are struggling with over and over and over again.  So in that point, what do you actually do? What we should actually do? Yeah. So to really find out what are the triggers, maybe what you're saying is that you've explored all those options. Explored all those options, what the triggers are, what is causing them to go back into the cycle of sin and defeat and again that cycle of failure and so on. So the thing is to say, okay, I've explored all these options and then I have given them this, but still there are two things. Are they unable to? Okay, because sometimes it's okay, we know that the flesh actually lusts against the spirit and contends against the work of the spirit. So it is a fight to see whether is that fight still on or are they unable to? Or is it the problem of a choice, a decision? They do not want to. If they don't want to, then we can't do anything. Even God can't. If they don't want to, there's nothing we can do. We can only inspire, motivate, encourage, which is what God does. What the Holy Spirit does, he inspires, he prompts, he convicts and all that, but if a person is so hardened and they do not want to, then I can't do anything. That's the sad reality. That's the sad truth. Whatever, if a person is willing, from that place of not wanting to do anything, they come to a place of, even if I'm willing to give it 5%, I mean, there's a 5% chance there of saying, okay, I'm open. Then there is every possibility of change. And probably the person is also not got a grip of all this. This has happened. So maybe they're trying to do things, striving to do things, maybe they're also trying to modify behavior, but in the thought realm, it's still not happened. Yeah, that's the thing. Okay, best. Thank you. Okay. Any other questions? Okay, so let's look at just one more thing, probably we have a couple of minutes. So let's look at. So what we have also received is the authority. Okay, we have been given that authority, delegated authority by the Lord Himself to resist the enemy, not just to resist, not tolerate, to actually evict, and give that eviction notice and say, you are no longer welcome. Pack your bags and leave.  You've been knocking on the door, you've been making noise. When I want to rest, you are no longer welcome. You have no right to remain. Now that authority, the Lord has given to us, which is something wonderful. Right? So that authority to expel, that authority to evict the work of the enemy, whoever's carrying out that work, that authority, the enemy has, I mean, the Lord has given us. Now that authority to cast out the demonic work in our own lives, maybe the enemies are pressing in the area of our thought-like compulsive things. To break that compulsive torment, the Lord has given us the authority to speak, to evict. Mark 16, 17 and 18, these signs will follow those who believe, in my name, they will cast out demons. These signs will follow those who believe, in my name, they will cast out demons. So, and you know, the rest, they will speak of new tongues, take a serpent to drink everything, anything deadly to them by no means harm them.  So all that follows. But this is it, that we have been given the authority. So in my name is meaning that in his place, in his place, in his authority. Question, what is the best way not to be offended of things one used to get it offended earlier? It seems to be an area of tree, but if it still bothers once in a while, okay, best way not to be offended is, I mean, a lot of things, but then one thing is to ask the Lord to give us eyes and heart to see people the way he sees, you know. So when we see people the way he sees, we will not, you know, take those words too hard. Sometimes we take ourselves very seriously and we get offended by the words of people. So I would say that, but I think you can actually go through that book on offense. So I think that will be helpful. You can go through that. But offhand, I just, you know, asking God to give us that eyes and hear eyes and heart, which means his perspective of the people, very people who are repeatedly, you know, saying things, doing things. And so we get offended because of that. So to give us that, you know, and to keep that fresh before our eyes. So that would be it. Yeah. Okay, so we'll stop here and we'll meet again in tomorrow's class. Okay. Right. God bless. See you guys. Bye-bye. Thank you, Pastor. Thank you, Pastor. Bye-bye. Take care.


This is the interface to the climate model where you can control different parameters of the climate model And you can also see the output.  Then it shows you the output. And so what's shown here is temperature solar input and CO2 concentration atmosphere. Each of those has its own different scale on the vertical axis which makes these grass a little bit tricky to read. You can get the values of the different model parameters just by putting your cursor over the line that tells you the time and the value of each of those each of those parameters.  So here's showing the energy in and the energy out and notice that they're the same. So it's going to be in steady state. Watch what happens if I change the initial temperature. Now I'm going to raise the temperature. So initially the temperature is very high. That means the energy out is going to be big bigger than the energy in because I haven't changed the solar input. So let's see what happens. So sure enough the energy out initially is quite high to 60 energy in to 40. So it's losing more than it's gaining and it's going to cool. And if I could come back here, we see the temperature starts out at 26 or 70. And then the temperature drops back down to its steady state temperature of 15. So you can adjust any of these things either by typing in a new value here, or you move the sliders back and forth for these different parameters like so. CO2 multiplier, same thing like that. If you want to restore everything to the way it was at the beginning, you hit this button here. Everything's back to normal. It's got these two switches down here that turn on the solar cycle switch. Watch what happens now. So the solar input here, the red curve is going up and down, up and down, simulating the sunspot cycle. Turn that off, restore everything. If I turn on the albedo switch here, then it's going to make the albedo of the planet change as a function of temperature. And so that's what you have to do for one of the later experiments with this model. So that's the way it works. Let me just show you one other thing here. If you click to page three, this shows the temperature for different model runs. So if I do this, it shows that. If I start off with the temperature being very cold, then it adds that to this graph and it scales them. So they're both shown. They're all three are shown on one graph. And you can see, no matter what the starting temperature, this one will evolve into this steady state where the temperature is about 15 degrees C. Okay, that's it.


Alright, so I know that I'm late to the party and talking about this, but I couldn't pass up an opportunity to share news That's this good with you for all intents and purposes the Dakota access pipeline Will be dead in 30 days pending review This is honestly Such good news that it's difficult for me to process this because this is something that activists and the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe have been fighting against literally for years And the fact that this is happening is honestly shocking to me So let's get to the details here JC Forton and Lisa Friedman of the New York Times report The Dakota access pipeline an oil route from North Dakota to Illinois that has inspired Intense protests and legal battles must shut down pending and environmental review and be emptied of oil by August 5th a district court ruled on Monday the decision which could be subject to appeal is a victory for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and Other Native American and environmental groups who have fought the project for years and a significant defeat for President Trump Who has sought to keep the Dakota access pipeline alive? Today is a historic day for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and many people who have supported us in the fight against the pipeline Mike Faith the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe said in a statement this pipeline should have never been built here He added we told them that from the beginning the ruling by Judge James E. Bosberg of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia is the latest twist in a long-running legal battle It essentially vacates a federal permit that had allowed the pipeline to operate while the United States Army Corps of Engineers Which had granted the permits for the pipeline conducted an extensive environmental impact review? Energy transfer the Texas company that owns the pipeline said in a statement on Monday That it would file a motion to stay the decision and if that failed appeal to a higher court We will be immediately pursuing all available legal and administrative processes and are confident that once the law and full record are fully Considered Dakota access pipeline will not be shut down and that oil will continue to flow It said in his opinion Judge Bosberg wrote that the court was mindful of the disruption such a shutdown will cause But that it had to consider the potential harm each day the pipeline operates So there's a lot to process here But I will say that this news comes just after we learned that the Atlantic coast pipeline Which is being developed by Duke energy and Dominion energy have also announced that they are canceling their project as well So I mean it's really great news all around for the environment, but I will say I'll be honest here I'm not to ran on everyone's parade. I'm a little bit skeptical that this will stand This will be appealed and whether or not, you know a court at a higher level will Maintain the same stance You know, it's let it's yet to be seen But I'm cautiously optimistic. I will say this is an unexpected victory for us But you know just kind of like pump the brakes on the celebration Even though it's hard not to celebrate any good news because it's very rare During these times, but I mean this is something that is near and dear to my heart We talked about the Dakota access pipeline so much that I actually have a playlist on this channel dedicated to talking about the Dakota access pipeline and you know, the story is truly it really shows How badly affairs are in the United States, right? When we're talking about militarized police brutalizing protesters, this story has all of those components Literal armed mercenaries were paid to intimidate and assault Peaceful protesters. They had dogs sicked on them They had cold water sprayed on them and freezing weather all to defend this pipeline That shouldn't have been built there because it violates the territorial sovereignty of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe And also it poses a threat to their drinking water and drinking water of anyone in the surrounding areas And at the same time that this was happening They got no support from Obama who was a lame duck president at the time and he basically just said you know what? I'm gonna wait and not do anything We'll just see how this plays out and then he left and as soon as Trump took office He signed an executive order almost immediately expediting the construction process of the pipeline and not to mention there was never a proper environmental impact report Conducted before they constructed the pipeline And you know there have already been leaks like what we see there have been multiple leaks within months of it going up So everything that the protesters said would happen has come to fruition So you know to see it come to this place where ending it permanently is seriously on the table I mean this is this is huge news. This is great for Standing Rock Sioux as well as environmental activists Like this is a win for the planet. We'll just put it that way And we have two two pipelines being shut down in the same week This is absolutely huge So I'm really thankful that we got this decision But I will say to everyone just be cautiously optimistic because energy transfer partners You know they have the support of the president This is a company who has a lot of money and resources and they're going to fight this tooth and nail They've had legal setbacks before but they've kind of gone On in spite of that. So I mean look I'm cautiously optimistic But this is really really good news Congrats to Standing Rock Sioux and any protester and water protector who put their lives on the line to stop this from happening because It paid off now

Well-known critic of Vladimir Putin, Alexei Navalny, has died according to the Russian prison service. In a statement on its website, the federal penitentiary service of the Yamilonenets autonomous district said Navalny felt unwell after a walk on Friday. He almost immediately lost consciousness, according to the statement. The prison service said medical staff were called but they were unable to resuscitate the public figure. His death leaves Russia's opposition, hampered by years of harassment and prosecution, without a clear figurehead. All of Putin's most high-profile critics are now either dead, jailed or in exile. But Navalny was, undoubtedly, the biggest thorn in the Kremlin's side. For over a decade, he led nationwide protests against the authorities, ran for office to challenge members of the Russian establishment and set up a network of campaign offices across the country that have since been dismantled. For a decade, Navalny was tolerated by the Kremlin. He endured a seemingly endless succession of arrests, court appearances and periods in detention but he survived. He was arrested at passport control for supposedly breaking parole and placed in pretrial detention. Born in 1976 in the tiny town of Bytyen, near Moscow, Navalny was educated as a lawyer and economist but entered politics in 2008, starting his anti-corruption fund, FBK, three years later. He was known for his oratory skills as well as his use of the online space to promote the results of his investigations and spread his ideal of what he called the, wonderful Russia of tomorrow. His digital savvy made him particularly popular among Russia's more democratically-minded teens and youth. Navalny rose to prominence as Russia's most outspoken Kremlin critic after leading a series of anti-corruption investigations into top members of the Russian elite.


The loan sharking, the numbers game, and prostitution as a major criminal activity turned such theft a serious threat to the reliability, efficiency, and integrity of the nation's commerce. One which seriously erodes industry's profits, results in higher prices for consumer goods, and provides support for unlawful activities. It's estimated that the overall loss from cargo theft runs several billion of dollars a year. That's two billion or more dollars. Now the federal government is taking some voluntary steps to support the transportation industry in its fight against cargo crime, although I feel that much more could be done. City campaigns have been instituted under the direction of the Department of Transportation to coordinate the efforts of industry, labor, and the law enforcement community. The Department of Justice through the Law Enforcement Assistance Administration is underwriting the development costs of new security concepts. This movie is a report on such a concept, a cargo security system for the trucking industry. This concept has been developed for LEAA by the Aerospace Corporation and its subcontractor, Hoffman Information Identification Incorporated of Fort Worth, Texas. Congressman Pickle's reference to the overall cargo theft loss of several billions of dollars that's billions with a B, included ship, train, air, and truck cargo. Now nearly all of those several billions of dollars in cargo theft occur in the trucking industry. These cargo loss figures represent only the actual dollar loss claims paid by the carriers. The real cost of cargo crime is many times higher. The utmost consideration is the cost of claim processing and security, which cuts deeply into the carrier's already thin profit margin, and ultimately forces up the cost of all goods to the American consumer. We looked into where and how cargo thefts actually occurred in the trucking industry. Now using data from industry, as well as the Department of Transportation, some interesting things surfaced. The most newsworthy part of cargo theft is truck hijacked. It is dramatic, certainly sensational, and most dangerous to the driver. Less well known as grand larceny, as practiced by this thief who is hooking up his tractor to steal this fully loaded trailer. Included in this group is breaking and entering. These three, hijacking, grand larceny, and breaking and entering, comprise less than 15 percent of all trucking theft losses. This 85 percent is the biggest part of the cargo theft problem. Here is Mr. Harlan Flinner, past president and currently on the board of directors of the Association of Transportation Security Officers. He is director of loss prevention for one of the nation's largest trucking companies and acknowledged leader in the field of cargo security. 85 percent of cargo theft starts right here at the terminal. The investigation uncovers the fact that local pickup and delivery operations like this one suffer the majority of all direct losses. It's a single carton theft, as well as pilferage of part of a carton's contents that really make up this 85 percent. Here's the essence of the problem. In order to benefit from stealing this carton, the insider must get it out of the freight terminal. But security measures can deter the illegal departure of merchandise. For example, the entire terminal area is fenced in. We spot check lunch boxes and personal packages, closed circuit televisions, unauthorized vehicles must park in separate fenced off areas. The credentials of each incoming vehicle are checked. But although security measures like these minimize the problem, this carton can still get out. It's the authorized pickup and delivery truck leaving this dock with its cargo that provides the wheels for the goods which are stolen from the truck later in the day. Have a good day out there and pick up a lot of freight. The problem is to protect the contents of the truck. But we need to thwart the inside man as well as the outside man and know in real time the crime is taking place. The truck driver cannot be his own security guard. He or his family would be liable to threats by the thieves. In fact, he is instructed by his management to do whatever the thieves demand. It was necessary to develop a system which would enable surveillance to be made without the high cost of guards following the truck in another vehicle. Well, with all the theft, lost data compiled and balanced, analysis showed that to be cost effective, the total operating cost of such a cargo security system should not exceed $1,000 per year per vehicle. Now with the help of trucking security officers like Harlan Flinner, the concept of an electronic vehicle surveillance system came into being. Now let's see what's in this concept we developed to attack the rip-off as well as to protect the driver. Let's start with an example very much like our opening scene. Some cartons being ripped off a truck. Now at the very time the theft is taking place, a sensor is triggered on the truck and the signal goes to the electronics in the cab and another electronic system determines the exact location of the truck. Let's call these our detectors and locators of the crime and have the information transmitted back to the trucking company where our system gives the warning in real time. With this warning, the dispatcher can immediately alert the police as to what is happening and where. Police car assignment could then be earlier followed by rapid and direct response. If early arrival is achieved, then we cut off the outlet to the fences and shady dealers. This concept had to be translated into real hardware. To keep the cost down, remember we set our upper limit at $1,000 per year per vehicle. We were able to use available sensors and displays and develop a way to piggyback or share the truck radio communication channel presently used by the dispatcher. First let's look at this channel sharing. This is where the dispatcher keeps track of all his trucking assignments. The very same voice channel can deliver location and truck sensor information to the computer here in the console. This display shows overall status of the trucks. When any sensor on the truck is activated, that truck's readout blinks and the dispatcher can investigate what is happening. Individual truck data is more detailed, giving status of all sensors as well as location. The dispatcher's observation of combinations of activated sensors plus his determination of non-authorized location infers trouble. Hard copy printouts provide a permanent record. Good night, the same sensors help protect the parked and locked vehicles using a special low power communications link to alert the guard to any suspicious activity. Now let's see the sensors that detect the theft and cause that blinking. Here's a sensor that detects the opening of the cargo door. Notice the blinking of line three. Now, when we key in this individual truck's status, we see that it's the cargo door sensor that's causing the blinking. Here's the intrusion sensor that reacts to anyone entering the cargo space. This sensor will work even if the thief cuts through the side or the roof to gain access. Here's the sensor that's installed in the cab door to indicate door opening. And there's a seat sensor installed in this truck seat to show driver presence. If the loaded truck is stolen after hours from the lot, we also have this magnetic sensor on the wheel to signal if the truck is being moved. All the sensors you've just seen were available off-the-shelf items, but the tough problem was to find a reliable, low-cost vehicle location system accurate within about one city block so we could determine whether or not the stop was authorized. A market survey showed that no hardware was available within our cost limitations. The aerospace corporation's technical analysis identified two location systems as having the potential to stay within our accuracy and cost parameters. The first of these two methods uses very small transmitters, like this one, mounted on utility poles along the truck routes. Each transmitter radiates a unique identification code over a limited area. Now, as the truck passes the small area covered by this unit, its receiver picks up that particular coded transmission and transmits it back to the base station. Now, since that transmitter is the only one in the city with that particular identification code, the computer determines where the truck is. This basic technique was well-established, but the number of transmitter installations made this system too expensive. We were able to eliminate three out of five of these transmitters, called electronic signposts, which then made the system cost-effective. The other electronic location system uses synchronized radio signals from three AM broadcasting stations to form an electronic navigational grid, which we call the AM phase lock system. Now, as the truck moves through the city, its receiver picks up the AM signals, compares them, and relays the comparison back to the base station computer, which matches the information to the established grid over the city for accurate determination of location. In order to verify feasibility of this AM broadcast concept, experimental receivers were hand-built into these three large chassis and installed in this golf cart to provide mobility. Concept feasibility testing was conducted using these experimental receivers to measure critical distances, which were found to be extremely stable when checked versus known landmarks. All that electronic gear has been miniaturized into this receiver unit for easy installation of the truck. This unit is the truck's master control for interfacing the whole system to the regular communication channel. The final decision was to include both electronic signposts and the AM phase lock system in our first testing program to check system hardware feasibility. In this pilot test program, sensors and control units were installed in six trucks. Their routes were selected to provide us with data in a tough downtown environment, in an area with railroad tracks, metal buildings, and out of radio triangle near the coast. The base station was installed at a trucking company headquarters in Santa Fe Springs, California. With a cooperation of city officials and utility companies in Santa Monica, Vernon, and Los Angeles, California, the electronic signposts have been installed on utility poles. With excellent cooperation from stations KFI, KNX, KPOL, and the Federal Communications Commission, we installed highly accurate automatic frequency controls for the AM phase lock system in the three stations. The daily operations of the six trucks are being monitored, and technical data are being acquired to determine what design changes are needed to make the cargo security system a most effective instrument in cargo crime prevention and detection. This test is proving that the hardware is feasible. In particular, the test has already produced the very first real-time location print out by AM phase lock technology. A formal field test will be undertaken as part of the overall program in a major city using a complete truck fleet. Fleet dispatcher and driver acceptance will be addressed, but this field test will primarily determine the value of the system for actually reducing cargo theft. A new security concept to reduce cargo crime being developed and tested by the National Institute for Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice on behalf of the motor carrier industry and for the ultimate benefit of the nation's consumers.


Hello and welcome. I'm here with Ross Mansel who did the Amplify Summer Analyst Training Programme back in 2021. He's joining me from Barcelona where he's currently studying at a Masters at Asade University but is from South Africa but is coming to London because he secured an off-cycle internship at Morgan Stanley. But Ross how's it going? It's going good. Yeah I'm doing my Masters in Finance at Asade. I started in September last year and I'll be finishing in June and then heading off to London for six weeks before I start my internship in August with Morgan Stanley. It's in the Global Capital Markets Division which is exciting. I'm very excited. I'm actually doing my thesis on a topic related to capital markets to kind of just get some of the juices flowing before I start. Let's take this back to the beginning. So did you always have like an ambition to work in finance? Obviously the things that you're studying would indicate that. But did you have an idea of role and stuff when you're at college and so on? Yeah I think at university I think a lot changed. Obviously I study finance and accounting in my undergrad and this passion for finance and this interest I think was more what it started as kind of lent to me pursuing a career in finance and I was particularly interested in the soul side so investment banking. But before then I was very much just 40 persons so I never really had. I had some exposure to commodities and finance in general but it was never I didn't expect to be in this position maybe eight years ago. More so when I started studying my undergrad and then I wanted to kind of pursue that further so I decided to come here and do a masters in finance. I think that was important for me because coming from South Africa wanting to work in the UK was quite difficult in the sense that the job market there is more tailored to hiring Europeans and people from the UK so doing the masters here has helped me kind of tailor my CV better and get some experience in a different country. So yeah. And then how did you come across Amplify initially? I think I mean on LinkedIn I'd always seen stuff on Amplify so PR related things and I knew that they kind of tailored their program to investment banking style and obviously the buy side so pretty much everything Amplify kind of gives you exposure to all sides of finance or financial markets. But I wanted some experience and when I was in the UK last year when I'd moved I couldn't get any internships because of Brexit. So I was in a tough spot where I wanted some work experience before I started my masters but there was nothing really there for me because of the whole work permit situation. So that's when I'd come across Amplify previously to that and then I was like let me reach out to someone at Amplify and then George got back to me and then I literally decided then in there that I was going to do the program and yeah it was a great decision. In the end it really helped me. It gave me some good exposure to what investment banks actually do. I think a lot of the time we don't actually know as students unless you've had that exposure or that experience at a bank previously. So I would say definitely LinkedIn helped me with that and actually knew someone that did Amplify before. He went to Asari as well. Okay yeah he did it his name yeah anyway. Yeah so obviously you and I had had some conversations over recent months kind of prior to you securing the role with Morgan Stanley but I know you've mentioned to me before about the importance of having kind of a peer group a community around you to help support you through that because I assumed that it wasn't just straightforward you applied and got the first job right. Was it what were the challenges that you had going through that application process? Yeah so the application process for banks is rigorous as an undergrad I mean or as a master's student. I think going into an entry level role is tougher maybe than going into a role as a more experienced individual you know. I'll have to find that out but I think having a good support system like friends that have similar ambitions and people that want to get into similar roles even though that's competition at the end of the day there's so many different banks and roles out there for individuals that having people that can check your CV, can check your cover letter and can do mock interviews and all that stuff I think that adds so much value because they can give you the feedback that you need prior to actually doing the interview or helping you. I mean one of the first steps in the process is the assessments the the numeracy things and having access to like maybe practice questions on that also helped me a lot before. So yeah it's all about prepping I think and also going into each stage knowing that it's a toss of I mean you could get the interview could not but you've got to try and put as much effort into the preliminary rounds as possible to make it. What do you think changed for you from the first application to then the eventual successful one? What part do you think was all the most substantial kind of tweak to help? So I mean the applications that I did for this round of of intakes at investment banks I think my approach changed a lot because my CV was a lot better I came to Amplify and you gave us this template for investment banking CVs and that helped me a lot because my CV before that wasn't in the right format and that can really hinder your chances of just even getting through the screening process. So I think that helped me and then the cover letter as well kind of my structure of my cover letter wasn't how it should have been so it's it's those kind of prepping situations where doing more research on the banks doing research on on markets and coming in fully prepared to know that whatever they're going to ask me I can even if I don't have in rehearsed an answer because I don't think you really can I think you just got to be able to think on your feet that's what changed I think it was more of a mindset shift than anything else. And then kind of dealing with the rejections because I'm just kind of sympathetic to the situation of most individuals you know is there any advice that you would give to them and they're kind of in the middle of it at the moment still looking to land that role. I think I got rejected by most banks that you apply to I mean in the screening stage you do get rejections very like often if you don't do one enough in the assessments I think you get that email back a day later and it's like really like I don't get the interview and I think you just got to keep on pushing trying to improve your CV and those are the key things I think the interview stage is up to you I mean if you do the prep then you can get the role. I remember you and I talking a fair bit before a lot of those final round interviews and yeah credit to you for kind of doing your utmost to be as prepared as you possibly could be. Yeah so I think with the rejections it's more about the rejections before you even get the interview those are the disheartening ones when you don't make the cuts based on a test or based on your CV or your cover letter so if there's one piece of advice or anything that I could say is just try and make sure that you do everything that you can to get past that stage because you can't really be upset about yourself if you've done all the prep possible and you just got to keep on applying. And is there people from the kind of cohort from Amplify that you still talk to at the moment? Yeah I speak to Chris quite often I think he might remember Chris he's in Wales but yeah they I do keep in touch with a couple of them but I'm in a different country so meeting up with them is quite difficult I did meet up with with Chris and yeah I mean also he holds me a lot in the process we did mock interviews together so it was always kind of like we've got you come on to Amplify you have 60 different people with pretty much the same ambition as you same kind of idea of what they want to do so you know helping each other definitely is a good idea and it also is satisfying when someone that you're helping gets a role yeah I mean one of my friends that I'm like close friend of mine from school got a role and we were I was helping him with with with his applications and it's really satisfying. Did the people at Morgan Stanley who had done Amplify before did they help you out at all? Yeah they did I reached out to a few of them that was definitely something that I would also say is really important for the interview stage is reaching out to analysts obviously people that have similar backgrounds or similar experiences so Amplify is a good one because they are people there so reaching out to people that are working at Morgan Stanley that have done Amplify are giving you kind of some feedback on their experience is definitely worth it and also it gives you more insight into their experience so yeah I did that with with a few of them I think three of them got back to me and it was really it was really useful so yeah it's amazing I think the Amplify community is the thing I'm most proud of and I hope that you'll do the same for whoever watches this or in years to come when your new touch word I'm sure will go on to smash it when you when you get there but look great to catch up thank you for your for your input and yeah stay in touch and yeah all the best for your off-cycle internship. Awesome thank you Anthony.


What's up gamers welcome to the channel in this video I'm going to be showing you how to get really cool mass outbreaks like the ones you're seeing right now on screen the rare powerful Pokemon that you desire to hunt not just the little baby forms before we go further into the video I do want to give a big shout out to n9kai this guy has grinded really hard on getting the information for this and was one of the first people so I've linked his channel down below have you ever found yourself struggling to try to get a mass outbreak or you're looking all over your map you're like how are these other people online getting really cool ones and I was a victim to this as well and what normal people do is we open up our game we jump forward and we hope that we get something cool on the map for the next day but what if I told you that there was a better way to do that and you just don't have to jump around change the map and then look around wait for the mass outbreak and then search your map because this is really an efficient way of doing this like every single time going through your whole map it's not it so here is exactly how it's going to be done step one I've linked Sarah be as well down the description below I'm going to pull up the list so we can take a look at all the mass outbreaks that are available that way you can cross reference this when searching these up okay so for example they have the mass outbreaks on the website here and you can see which ones you want to go for but pay attention because you might think I want an annihilate outbreak but guess what it's not going to be there it's only a primate outbreak so that's why I'm giving you this to cross reference and you can see which are the really rare Pokemon that you want to find because just because they're in your Pokedex does not mean they're going to be in the game and as I'm scrolling down the list I'm looking for really cool Pokemon and one of the first cool Pokemon that I thought would be really great and why you click this video is yo I want to find a Lucario outbreak I think that would be pretty sick because I haven't found Lucario outbreak in the game I tried popping fighting sandwiches I got no luck getting a bunch of Lucario and I thought this would be the best way to hunt it and it also showed up as one of the mass outbreaks so what you have to do is basically open up your Pokedex when you open up your Pokedex and select the Pokemon itself you're then going to select the habitat by hitting the plus button once you select the habitat you'll then get orange markers on your screen indicating the location of the Pokemon and where they should be exactly and where they spawn once you have figured out the general location of where that Pokemon spawns you're then going to want to head on your way towards that location so just run and dart to that area general area doesn't have to be an exact perfect match just somewhere where the orange marks are once you arrive at those orange marked areas you're simply going to do this you're going to start to do your date reset and a really good tip that I can tell you is open up the in-game map and when your in-game map is open start to date skip I did a couple of date skips forward by one day and eventually it did show up on the map as you can see over here and I was kind of shocked that there was a Lucario outbreak because I'd never seen one in my life and this was very exciting so I marked it up on the map and headed towards it and once I was there and I was extremely shocked there were so many Lucario everywhere in this mass outbreak I've never seen this many Lucario in the game I wasted a lot of time looking at them letting them gather around me taking pictures so I wanted to really get a shiny Pokemon out of this video so what I did was I knocked out 60 Lucarios I did some picnic resets I ran back and forth to despawn them and eventually after one picnic reset I did see my beautiful Lucario it was right there the yellow Lucario the shiny Lucario and I tried to go up to it and get some pictures bump into it for the right thumbnail shot as you can see over here and then eventually I finally was able to catch it if you are enjoying this kind of content make sure to hit that subscribe button as it does help support the channel a lot and it makes me know that you guys like content like this but the most exciting part about the discovery was that all I had to do was put myself in the location of the Pokemon spawn and you can use your Pokédex to do it along with cross referencing Cerebi I also wanted to try this out on Gardevoir so I searched up Gardevoir and I checked Cerebi's website to make sure the cross reference lined up and it was a mass outbreak and it was a location on the map so I went there and tried to get it to spawn so I went to the general area and reset my dates eventually it did spawn and it was in a very snowy area a problem with the Gardevoir outbreak was that once it turned into night time they just stopped spawning so it looks like Gardevoir was a daytime spawn only and when it becomes night it stops unfortunately I wasn't able to get the shiny in the video for you but I just wanted to show that hey I was also able to get Gardevoir as one of the spawns in the game after that I then wanted to challenge myself and see if I could get a Zororarch because this is also on the mass outbreak list on Cerebi's website and Zororarch is going to be a very difficult one so what I did was I opened up my Pokédex I looked up Zororarch, saw the location and it was marked up in the really orange-fally area across the lake on the map and once I knew the spot I went over there but I noticed it's sometimes hard to get rare Pokemon to spawn on the map and Zororarch is one of the rare ones and you're getting a giant outbreak of them so once I was able to get it after skipping a lot of dates I headed over to the spot but believe it or not because Zororarch disguises as other Pokemon this one might actually be the hardest mass outbreak I've ever seen in fact it's just a bunch of random Pokemon it's disguised so if you're able to pull off this challenge get a Zororarch mass outbreak and get the shiny Zororarch out of it hats off to you but I think this is one of the greatest challenges it was able to disguise as so many Pokemon that when I went into auto battle sometimes I didn't even realize I was bumping into it so I had to lock on to all my targets and start isolating which ones are different in order to figure out where it was eventually I wanted to capture one clip of me at least bumping into it for one fight but that way you can see it but Zororarch insanely rare and it's one of the hardest ones to do the hunting in but good luck to anyone who is able to pull that one off every rare outbreak that I did want to test was Eeveelutions because Eeveelutions do appear on the map and they're also pretty rare at first I opened up my map and my goal was to get an Umbreon so I went over to the psychic town all the way at the bottom left of the map because that's where the Umbreon was marked and I started to date skip date skip date skip eventually I saw that oh I got a Sylveon that spawned up and that's pretty rare to even get a Sylveon spawn so I abandoned the Umbreon hunt and went for the Sylveon spawn because that's also very hard to get Eeveelutions are pretty difficult to get and some third evolution Pokemon forms might be a little harder to get maybe you're lucky on the date skip when you're doing this and like I said open up your map when you're doing the date skip because when you do the date skip while the map is open you can quickly go back to the date skip again the map stays open and the Pokemon refresh in that general area it was kind of crazy to see that many Sylveons in one spot the only Sylveon I was used to was the one outside of the team star base all the way up north so I did the whole entire knockout 60 Pokemon and then I started to despawn, respawn, do the picnic method and eventually a Shiny Sylveon showed up and I was also able to catch it so this just proves that yes it 100% works all you have to do is make sure that one that is an actual Pokemon spawn so I cross-referenced that with Sarabee two you're going to open up your Pokedex and make sure that you are paying attention to where the habitat is you're going to make sure to fly to that place do a bunch of date skips there and eventually that Pokemon spawn will show up and you can mass outbreak hunt that with no problem guaranteeing you some amazing Shiny Pokemon now you can take the actual testing that we've done in terms of where to put yourself on the map in order to get the right outbreaks and apply this to either your local multiplayer or your co-op multiplayer and when you put this into the multiplayer aspect a lot of crazier things can happen in the game so if the host is going to host a multiplayer session in the union circle they're going to be the ones that are going to go to the certain location and they'll be able to date skip yes we've tested out the date skipping and date skipping does work for the host now what you can get to spawn can be tested out further by you guys so let me know down in the comments below what findings you are doing or what is working for you and also we have a really cool video on the whole multiplayer Shiny hunting and how you can legally duplicate your Shiny Pokemon so go ahead and check out this video over here it's actually insane what you can do you get your original trainer name and you get a unique ID so it functions almost like a raid den check it out
