The first part in the series from the gospel of Matthew.
A full understanding of who God is revolutionises our response to Him and therefore our values and behavior.

Isaiah 40 - whole chapter,
but especially vs 31 and
focus on the word Hope in the Lord or Wait on the Lord
Also
Acts 1:4 - the word wait again.
In Hebrew and Greek the word translated wait (or hope) is an active word.
We should wait on God in 2 ways - as a good waiter tends to the diner in a restaurant and as an athlete on the starting block after "take your marks, get set"...
As we wait for God we should be waiting like that athlete waits for the starting gun or buzzer
THEN will we rise up on wings like eagles, then will we run and not grow weary.

A few testimonies of God at work in the lives of various of our members

Please forgive the sound quality on the first minute and last 9 minutes - we had a recording problem so had to splice in plan 'B'!

Holy Spirit Series Part 3

Holy Spirit Series Deel 3

Holy Spirit Series Deel 2

The church (global) will have missed a golden opportunity if we just "go back to normal" after the virus.
The world needs hope and solutions and we can supply them with God's answers - if we choose.
4 POINTS to help us maximize our effectiveness:
1. Grasp and cling to the sovereignty of God
2. Stay flexible and open to the Holy Spirit - "seek the wind"
3. Church is not a church if there are no people in it - it is more than meetings, important as those are
4. Return the domain of prophecy to those who are hearing and obeying God - resist supporting/ endorsing the 'nuts and flakes' of the prophetic realm.

Why do we need the Holy Spirit, what is His purpose?
The God-head is 3 in one. God the father planned everything, Jesus revealed the plan to us and the Holy Spirit empowers us to live out that purpose
