This Easter "Go again"

To watch the live message preached, click on this link

Are you feeling discouraged, tempted to give up on what the Lord has told you, 'believing and yet not really believing' because you haven't yet seen the promise in which the Lord has given you.   Perhaps for healing, for your children, for your ministry?
I want to encourage you this morning "Go again", don't give up, the promise is on the way.
"Though there be no fruit on the vine, yet will I rejoice in the Lord." (Ham 3:17)
There is this sense for some that it's been a hard long road and it feels like there is no fruit from all the labour, yet the Lord would say to you this morning "Go again".  Don't give up, keep going.

Like Elijah who in 1 Kings 18:41-45 tells the story of hearing the rain coming in a time where there was a drought and yet he heard the sound.  "Go and look toward the sea"... "There is nothing there"....Elijiah said "Go back"...The seventh time the servant report "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea.  Habakkuk was asking the question -  "How long, O Lord must I call for help...."  v5  The Lord's answer - Look at the nations and watch and be utterly amazed.  For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told.....2:2  For the revelation awaits an appointed time, it speaks of the end and will not prove false.Though it linger, wait for it, it will certainly come and will not delay."  

Today is Resurrection Sunday

Jesus was dead, he was buried, the dream, the promise was over, or so it seemed.....
Does it look like there is no hope left?
Does it look like your dream is over?

Today brings hope in the midst of death

  • A day where dreams and promises that have died came back to life
  • A day where hope arose again in the hearts of man
  • A day where victory overcame death.
Lets believe again, lets be a people who live by faith and not by sight, LET HOPE ARISE in the midst and that the Lord would say to you this morning "Go again"

Will you play the piano - will you spit and touch a man's toungue?

We had our worship group the other night and to begin with I saw someone playing the playing so I asked if anyone could and would play the piano because that is what I saw happening in the spirit.  I may have been wrong in the what I saw but I stepped out in faith but alas no one stepped forward to play the piano so Jim played it and I believe in this the Lord was teaching us some valuable lessons.  Jim cannot play the piano at all but he was willing to be used. This morning I was reading in Mark 7:32-35  "There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged him to place his hand on the man...    Jesus put his fingers into the man's ears.  Then he spit and touched the man's tongue.  He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him "Ephphatha!" (which means, "Be opened!).  At this the man's ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly. I was reminded of the other night ...

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Dear friends and partners, It is time to have a break over the Christmas and New Year Season.  Thank you for all your support and encouragement over this past year and in all that the Lord has been doing.  It has been an amazing year full of challenge and change and seeing God do all that he said he would do as we stepped out in faith in what we believed he was saying and seeing him come through.  It has been an eventful year!  We wonder what will be revealed over the next month or two? We are excited about 2013 and as He shows us more we will keep you to date step by step as He reveals it.  So far just continuing on the words of 'preparing for expansion' and more recently believing for 'surprising and perhaps radical changes' but have no idea what that looks like yet.  So its like opening Christmas presents as you shake the package, get excited about what it is and try to work it out but just make guesses, but at the proper time all will be revealed. :...

The baby's been handed over

Several weeks ago the Lord shifted us out of the 'home office' into the 'market place' and in the process a spiritual shift happened - one of letting the 'baby' go, a releasing and handing over the batten, so to speak to others. In this process the nests that WE ALL have been in have been stirred up, shaken about, and pushed out, to fly in ways that perhaps we were too afraid to do previously. The amazing thing with God is that He knows the timing of all of this and where each one of us is at and what we can handle.  Yes there has been a fluttering of wings in panic.  Yes, we have had a few weeks of challenge as authority and structures get changed and challenged, frustrations coming to the fore, but love helps us overcome,  love helps us to forgive,  love helps us to see the good and not the dirt, love helps us remember our own failings and yet forgiveness and grace that the Lord has for me, that I can give to others, remembering it's the glory of G...

How do we honour?

This morning I am pondering how we truly show honour to people?  I was thinking about how to honour some people and the Lord said to me “Sarah honour them the way you want to receive honour.”  I found that really interesting as it made me question as to what I see as honour toward me in my own life. While mowing the lawns I came to see that honour is actually shown more deeply from people when it is given from the heart, sown by that particular persons love language perhaps and so often we don’t receive the honour that people are giving us if we are expecting it a certain way.  For instance the other day a beautiful lady in the Lord gave me a couple of very small roses to wear on my clothes.   It was so beautiful and so touched my heart and spoke volumes to me and the honour and love she was showing me because she had thought of me.  Often we miss the love and honour someone is trying to show us because we see it from how we expect to receive ...

What do Kingdom finances look like?

I was asked by someone the other day what Kingdom finances looked like and I realised that this is an area that needs some discussion. This is my opinion of what Kingdom finances look like according to what the Lord has taught me over the years and to scriptures I have been shown, but I am not the be all and end all to thinking, so it is something you might want to check out for yourselves. The way of the world is to store up riches, to save for a rainy day, to have enough to protect themselves should something happen, that I have earned this and it is mine and therefore I can do what I want with it. The way of the Kingdom is a way of giving to the poor, giving to God's people in need and practicing hospitality, of not worrying about tomorrow, of trusting God for the future and His provision in that time of need when it arises, of everything is His (God's). I believe that if you see a need in front of you and you have something in which can help with that need, whatever it is,...
