Some Thoughts On the Prophetic Pt. 3

Posted on by under Pastor Wrinkles, Uncategorized

God is currently putting His finger on a prophetic thread in our church. By that I don;t mean there are a bunch of people seeing into the future. A prophetic work of God in a church is a work in which God begins to give a community a Divine direction and those same people begin to obey and carry out the plans of God for their community. That is what is happening at Cornerstone right now, a prophetic move. there is a price to pay for this wonderful adventure we are on and we as a church community are currently in the process of considering if the call is worth answering. My answer is “Yes”! Others though are on the fence.

Here are some things I gleaned from our lead pastor’s sermon this last Sunday.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires a purification of the secret life. It requires a strengthening of integrity.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires a love for the Word of God, the Bible.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires us to love like Jesus loved.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires that we not be ashamed of our faith.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires that we stop insisting on comfort. We have to give up our carnal ways and pleasures. We have to be willing to be inconvenienced.

Some Thoughts On the Prophetic

Posted on by under Pastor Wrinkles

God has been speaking to our church about how He desires to move in the prophetic among us. Sunday morning our lead Pastor, Dan Lewiston, preached a message called “Bungee Chord Faith.” During that message God began to speak to me about some things which He is calling our congregation to in order for Him to move prophetically amongst us.

Here are some of the things I understood from the sermon.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires stillness.

Accuracy in the prophetic requires absolute slavery to Christ, which is a complete renunciation of our rights.

In the church authority and slavery go hand in hand. That is the nature and definition of meekness.

There is more, but I will share it in an upcoming post. If you want to hear the whole sermon f Bungee Chord Faith you can jump over to OUR FAMILY BLOG HERE.
