PARAKLETOS παράκλητος - Prayer & Fasting
I have been reminded throughout 2020 just how brief life is. We only get one life to live before we meet our maker and discover the fate of our souls for eternity! Does that sound heavy? It is! It’s a big deal- so let’s figure this life out so that we can live abundantly and be a light to those around us.
OurChurch has been through a 10 year period where God has been dismantling and rebuilding us as a people to ensure we are functioning as the new covenant community Jesus established through his death, burial and resurrection. We have been rethinking church!
Momentum is the word that God has highlighted to us as we now enter the second 10 year period. We need momentum to turn us into the movement that the Father established in Jesus. To achieve this we need to be committed to fully surrender to the work of the third person of the trinity, The Holy Spirit.
It is my prayer that across the next season we continue to learn how to be effective ambassadors for Christ as we carry the Holy Spirit within conforming us into the image of Christ.
Life looks remarkably different when we walk with the Holy Spirit daily. The key to living an abundant life is learning to walk in step with and being empowered by Him. It’s perfectly natural to live a supernatural life if a supernatural God is living within. I pray that the Holy Spirit will give us power to share Jesus with others in our everyday lives as we go about living mission on our daily rhythms and routines.
Parakletos is a series that will encourage and equip us as disciples to rely on the Holy Spirit to guide and lead us as we seek to make disciples in our world. I want to encourage you to fast and pray as you are able throughout November as an act of worship. This will position our hearts as servants, giving our God the opportunity to empower us to live Spirit Led lives of mission.
May we become the church that Jesus died for....An Unstoppable Kingdom Movement.
We would love to know if you are praying and fasting through this season. You can log your fasting date and times here.
