Hi Church,
Sometimes we can forget that listening to God can be fun. Especially when your doing it on behalf of another. So prophetic listening is tuning your ear/spirit to hear from God so you can speak on behalf of Him to someone else for their encouragement, comfort and edification. We did that on Sunday morning in a very basic writing form. In our exercise of Listening to God, we wrote what a loving Heavenly Father would say to their child.
Soon many people wrote down many sentences of beautiful support and love and comforting words. It was amazing as some of those letters were shared how specific the words were and how they ministered to the heart of those who received them. Maybe this was confronting for some, I trust not. But I do hope it nudged us all a little to eagerly desire the Spiritual gifts and to step outside our comfort zone. Why? It makes a difference to listen well, and it takes practice. I’m looking forward to sharing another 4 ways of listening to God this coming Sunday and maybe jump into another exercise of listening.
Let me also say again a big thank you to the amazing response of the Church to the training centre in Nepal. We are close to supplying $22,000 in funds for the completion. Well done Grace family this will make an eternal difference in the life of the Nepali Church. Its not too late to release your gift, reference it Nepal Building.
Now with Powerhouse Conference 23 just around the corner its time to step up our prayer and preparations of our heart to be equipped for greater empowerment by the Spirit. Start asking God to prepare you to receive and implement truth. To receive a prophetic word and to be ready for all that Jesus would want to give us and release through us. Also pray about who you can personally invite.
God Bless
Ps Greg and Amanda
