A "word" for the Church

“In the next season of life for us as a church we will experience God in new ways – We must be prepared for His coming – He is exposing, pruning, testing our hearts through various trials. When trials come to your life and to the life of the Church realize that God is at work – He is moving – embrace the test, embrace the changes, learn the lesson(s) and apply it to your lives. Remember that we are called to live by faith – sometimes that means that there are bills to pay and no money, sometimes that means that we risk our reputations by speaking or acting in obedience to God. Sometimes that means that we don’t know what our foot is going to land on or even if it is but we step anyway!”

“The Presence of God will bring with it newness – revival, renewal an excitement and a passion about God and the things of the Kingdom but it will also bring with it a new fear of God and new call to holiness and purity. The days of playing church and pretending, hiding behind a mask will end. The gifts of the Spirit will be in full operation, yes the healings will come, The word of knowledge will be working with the word of prophecy and the hidden things will be exposed. Get and keep your heart clean and pure – be open and honest with God, allowing Him to enter every area of your life.”
