Knowing God ! Or Knowing about Him!

I worry a lot about those who keep their Christianity bottled up in their head alone. I see so many people around me who seem to have no power in their faith, no sense of relational connectedness to our Father God. I heard last night that the Hebrew word for this connectedness is the same or has the same meaning as head and heart together. Whilst that may be very true in Hebrew, for many on this planet, who do not know Hebrew, there is still a very strong reality that knowing about God, is very different to actually "Knowing" Him.

Christianity is meant to be a relationship with Jesus.

Even satan knows who Jesus is.

Christianity for me needs the Power of heaven falling and flowing in and through and around us. The power that causes blind people to be able to see, power that helps cripples walk, power that saves a sinner from his sin, power to believe in things thought impossible to the human mind. It's this kind of power that enabled Peter to Walk on water,..... Yet if we relegate our theology to our limited human understanding, we miss something. We need the supernatural power of God in our churches...and Corps. Anything else is just us, playing church.

This is not a criticism, but rather a hearts hunger cry for the things of God.

I have been in meetings when I have seen the power of God in such ways that people were literally healed in front of my very eyes.

Where people who have lived lies all their life, have been released, miraculously.

People put on the floor. Gently and powerfully. Even me.

I have sensed the presence of God so very strong, and bought to my knees and tears as I felt His Holy Spirit warm my heart and tingle my skin.

This is church, this is my experience, this is what I desire my ministry and life to be all about.

I remember the day very well, when my own daughter was supernaturally healed right before my eyes. The doctors were mystified, but the evidence proved the fact.

I remember the day when Angels manifested and were visible to me on the bonnet of my car as I drove to a dangerous and Yet God Honouring appointment.

I remember much about the Holy Spirits power in my life, and its time for more.

Many criticize and dismiss this ....trying to justify it and balance it off in the ledger of their mindset. You can't do that.

It's not something you can work out in your brain.... It's a spirit thing and its very very real.

And I want some more of that stuff in my life and ministry.

The kind of Supernatural activity that changes stubborn hearts and heads and replaces it with Joy and unspeakable peace.

 

Bring it on !!!!!!

 

Hope your ready Ringwood, coz, I am praying for a supernatural flood and downpour of God amongst us.

After that..... No one will be the same again.

 

And once you have experienced this supernatural power of God ....you will never be satisfied with anything less.

 

( and for those skeptics, and cynics.... Jesus said.... You have not, because you ask not )

What got us here, will not get us there.

I have been thinking about the this for sometime now. We as TSA have come along way, but yet...there is a long way yet to go, and everything we have done up until now, has given us the results we now have. It's insanity to think, that if we keep doing the things we have already done, that we will get a different result. All that we have done so far, in previous weeks, months and years and even decades have given us the results we are seeing right now. If we think for one moment that things are going to change, by doing the things the same way as we have already done them, then there may be a need for seeing a therapist. do things the same way, get the same result. change the way you do things, get a different result. the problem with this, is ..... that many think everything is honky dory....all "A OK".... and that's where the real bottle neck actually is. Because the truth is, (and many don't want to acknowledge the truth), that we are not winnin...

Salvo style.... God is here.

For me these days, life is super busy. I used to think I was busy before, but now...my goodness. Now, so that it's clear, I am happy being busy with the Kingdom stuff, and would never cope if I was blatantly bored in ministry, I am simply not wired in such a way. Life is good. My ministry is good. My God is good. For those of my readers who think, that maybe, I think I have arrived..... wash your mouths out...there is no way I think that, last week my head was in such a spin, I literally had to walk out the office and go home. I went for a walk to clear my head and got drenched when it started raining, and it was really good for me... I gained perspective and focus and the next day in the office was a little more sober. It's a busy place and much is going on.... it does pose questions for me, which over time I will seek clarity from the senior leaders here....and I guess where needed, I will tweak where and when I can. in the meantime, I am just doing what I feel...

Psychics

Went onto a Facebook thread this week that involved people seeking a psychic for whatever reason. I understand that the world is seeking answers,  and I have the answer but the answer I have people don't want to seek. VERY  FRUSTRATING . now as bad as it all is, what makes it worse, WAY WORSE...is that some of the people in our church were on there making appointments.   Now, before you throw your hands up in the air and ask what kind of church this actually is... we run a new church here at Craigieburn and it has loads of new baby Christians, and many also, who are just here checking things out...not committed to Christ yet, that's part of the journey of planting a Church..... so it is expected that there will always be people who are on various stages of growth. If you are reading this..and you have been doing this psychic thing... you don't need to do it, you need to seek Jesus and His Holy Spirit, it will be better than anything and everything else yo...
