Unity and authority!

Glory to God!

This is the year of transformation and growth! Hallelujah! These past two weeks, the Lord has been speaking to us about maturity in Christ. In his message entitled, "What do I still lack?", Alexander showed us from Matthew 19:16-22 how the believer grows in Christ. We noted that following Jesus means living a life of self-abandonment, trusting in God's provision, caring for others, having an eternal perspective and committing one's life to Jesus as Lord and Saviour. 

On Sunday, we had another powerful time in God's presence, as He revealed His authority and moved us to use the keys of the Kingdom to release heaven on earth! Alexander then spoke to us from Philippians 4:1-7. In his message, entitled, "Sort it out!", he showed us the important connection between unity and authority. Recognising the believer's responsibility to live at peace with others and to sort out any disagreements, we saw how God calls us to sort out conflict and help others to do the same so that the family of believers can walk in unity and authority.

Kay Lorentz

Glory to God!

On Sunday, we had the privilege of having Kay Lorentz with us as guest speaker. Holger and Kay Lorentz are missionaries of Globe Mission with KLF as their sending church. We support their ministry to children at risk in the various ministries they lead and are part of such as Resilient Kids SA, Mercy Aids and their own family as foster parents to 4 HIV-positive children. Kay gave us a glimpse of their tough journey and God's faithfulness in the past year and shared a message entitled, "Letting go" in which she spoke to us from Psalm 124 and Luke 5:17-26. During worship, the Lord was already preparing our hearts to receive revelation of His Fatherhood and His desire to replace every orphan spirit with His Spirit of adoption in Christ. Kay's message flowed right from the Father's heart and addressed the need for God's people to have their minds renewed according to the love of the Father and their identity as sons and daughters of God. Kay showed us how God wants to restore trust, remove shame and teach us to be vulnerable so that we can become powerful as we depend on the Father. In response to Kay's message we spent time in the Father's healing presence, allowing Him to minister to many of us very deeply. We praise God for Holger and Kay who are truly demonstrating the Father's love with their lives and for the anointing upon them to bring home the orphans to their Father. Hallelujah!

André Bronkhorst

Glory to God!

We had an amazing Prophetic Encounter conference with André Bronkhorst this weekend. With great clarity, accuracy and encouragement, André ministered prophetically to many people in the meetings. The combination of André's powerful teaching and revelation of the Father's heart strengthened our faith, renewed our hope and moved us into greater depths of love for the Lord, for one another and for God's salvation purposes. Following are links to the messages shared at each session with a short summary of the content:

Session 1: "Training your senses" - As the Church learns to depend on the presence of God and becomes sensitive to the Holy Spirit through resting, praying, fasting, worshipping and listening, she will be transformed. The Church is called to become mature and discerning as she constantly feeds on God's truth and influences the world with God's presence (Acts 1:8; 10:1-4; Heb 5:14).

Session 2: "Filled with the knowledge of the glory" - Looking at 1 Cor 12:7, André explained the difference between words of knowledge, words of wisdom and prophecy. He then spoke to us about the glory of God and how believers need to have revelation of the Lord's glory in order to be carriers of the knowledge of the glory of God. André encouraged us to pursue the knowledge of the glory of God and to birth it in our "off-season" so that we can produce it in season (Hab 2:14; Num 24:15,16; Ps 19:1-5; Pro 2:4-7; Dan 1:17; 12:4; Mt 13:11; Rom 1:28; 1 Cor 1:5; 2 Cor 2:14; Eph 4:13)!

Session 3: "You will receive power" -  Dependence on the Holy Spirit and recognising His work prepares us for what God has prepared for us (Rom 8:26; Acts 1:8).

Session 4: "Living in the glory" - Looking at the account of Elisha's request to receive a double portion of Elijah's anointing in 2 Kings 2:9-15, André showed us that God wants us to walk in a double portion of His anointing this year as a church - a season of 'more than enough'! André encouraged us not to withhold what we are able to give in order to touch the lives of others with the blessings we, ourselves have received. Just as Elisha and Elijah were assigned to one another, so the Church is called to seek out divine relationships that God has assigned to release blessing and breakthrough. As the Church grows in her understanding of God's grace, she will learn to live in God's glory and be a blessing to believers and unbelievers alike.

Yesterday's meeting was electric. The place was full of hungry and expectant worshippers who joined together with one heart and one spirit to seek God's face and worship Him. Our time of worship in song moved into a powerful time of communion as we received the very life of Christ and participated in His body and His blood (see Jn 6:53-57; 1 Cor 10:16,17; 11:23-26). After his message on "Living in the glory", André prophesied over many people who were visibly moved by the accuracy of the words spoken and the revelation of the Father's heart. He then invited the church to come forward for prayer and to be anointed as we continued in worship. It was another very powerful time as many were filled with the Spirit and God confirmed His Word. The presence of God was so strong that people did not want to leave but enjoyed communion with the Holy Spirit or fellowship with one another over a hot drink and cake. It was a joy to have so many people at the meeting and have such an awesome time with God as a conclusion to our 3 day Prophetic Encounter conference! Hallelujah!
