Living In The Favour Of God

The goal isn't to live forever, but to leave something that does!.

​

The prodigal son took from his father and squandered his inheritance, which led him to appreciate what riches he once had at his disposal. We too, can live within the confides of the favour of God and yet never fully appreciate it. 

​

When God builds, He builds specifically and with an inheritance in mind. Living in the favour of God, begins with the revelation of how God perceives us and how we perceive ourselves. Son or Servant? The difference is motive!

Living In The Favour Of God #2

All we have is found in the finished work of Calvary. One cannot "take authority" for authority is given. We either have it or we don't. As we saw last week Peters revelation of who Jesus is, was the foundation stone one which we (the church) stands.

​

Hebrews 4:1 assures us the promise to our forefathers still stands for us today. It hasn't been "updated or modified like some software package." The promise still stands for those living in obedience to it.

​

Entering the rest which many fail (and have failed) to enter, requires not only obedience but a revelation of who we are in Christ - Sons and heirs of promise!

Monthly Prayer And Fasting

PRAYER 

AND FASTING

FRIday 31

What a POWERFUL month we have had with amazing breakthroughs, salvation's healing's, vision ownership with a week of prayer and fasting which concluded with some powerful testimonies of personal revelation of Gods love. His miraculous provision and an emphatic presence of unity and one-ness and such heartfelt worship, which brought a tangible presence of God. Many people just wanted the fast to continue. Our desire to be a church OF prayer rather than a church which HAS prayer, makes it a priority for our church.

7:30-9:30pM  

PASTORAL CARE and e-QUIP

​

Registration are OPEN for semester ONE of our TWO new course that continues on our growth track for those with a desire to grow into the freedom which Christ has provided us.

Due to the nature and structure of these TWO course, we will NOT be opening it to correspondence study. The studies are challenging and will include prayer ministry support.

​

Those who have discovered their GIFTING(s) through last years PERSUIT OF FREEDOM - should now look at "HOW" to invest those gifting(s) into kingdom life. After all, that's the purpose of been gifted them...

​

These TWO courses will be lead by:

                 Ps Denise (Pastoral Care)  TUESDAY EVENINGS

                 Ps Tony    (eQUIP)              THURSDAY EVENINGS

​

Both courses have a practicum component in which each person participates in an area of responsibility and growth within our church vision. The practicums cover:

​

Pastoral care and support teams 

Teaching and training teams

​

Each semester has its own manual, and online data-base to identify and align each persons spiritual gifts with practical aspects of service. 

​

This 32 week course is covered over 4 eight week semesters, which commences in February 2021 and concludes in November. Each study requires prayerful consideration. Students of the course will learn how living by kingdom principles develops character and a faith filled life. A minimum of 80% attendance is required to participate in the presbytery.

​

The course is a continuance of our growth strategy, and personal development plan to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

Discovering your "personal fit" is essential to personal growth and our "Living Essentials" course is a great place to start. Pick up our brochures, or visit our courses page and sign up now for 2021.

​

Many people equate "VISION" with being something huge or dramatic. It conj-ours up some heavy spiritual dimension only given to the few. In fact vision is something within us all to some degree or other. It takes vision to raise a family Gods way. It takes vision to prioritise our year. It takes vision to not get bogged down with the mundane demands of life.

​

Vision is simply "a preferable future". "A point to head towards". "An inner motivation which empowers our day to day activities". Vision may get lost in the humdrum of life. Vision my be diverted or misdirected over time, which is why we all need to revisit again our effectiveness in living with vision.

This year has been unusually difficult in many ways for many people, but not for God. Challenges come in life at many times, and for many reasons, and not all of those challenges are negative. God has not been blind-sided by world events and His is not looking for a plan "B". 

​

"2021 is a time to shine." and we encourage you to consider how you can invest into the vision of Eden and the community needs around us. On February 28th, you can do this in several ways:

Last month we considered one of the most searching questions Jesus asked his disciples. “Who do you say I am”.

For the disciples, there was nowhere to hide! The ultimate test of relationship.

This month we take a look at the inherent power of the crucifixion, and following resurrection. This months series is "Exalted".

If everything stopped at the crucifixion of Christ, then the gospel was in vain. It didn't! The cross did not end in humiliation, but exaltation.

​

Philip 2:9-11 Paul stated, "Therefore also God highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth; and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father."
