Hi Church,
The Lord is good! We had such a marvellous Easter weekend. Salvations at the two morning services. 5 Baptisms on Friday. Sunday night “More” at 5:00 pm had prophecy, healing, deliverance, baptism in the Spirit, passionate worship, joy with laughter.
Plus the Lake Cathie life group led by Justin and Kaidee did a combined church outreach which saw 150 plus community people with kids enjoy a massive family fun afternoon with Gospel preaching. So a big thank you to everyone who contributed and helped in any way across a very impacting Easter. We ministered to a lot of people, and many were blessed and encouraged. Also, a big Thank you to all who gave to the love offering to bless Paul and Monika.
Paul and Monika’s messages to us were outstanding and I encourage you to listen again when online. We were also very encouraged by the Prophetic Word that Paul gave to the Church that saw us as a massive billion dollar yacht, that had three tall masts and three massive sails. He saw us being taken out of the docks and moving into the open waters with speed. Many were going to get on board, and everyone will have a task and a function given by God and every person will work with what God has gifted in their hands.
The three masts will represent 1. the Word of God for Prayer and revival, 2. The Spirit of God for here is where He is honoured and revered and 3. Community on Commission for the advancement of the Kingdom. Signs and wonders will become the norm and Gods “Agapeo” love will be seen by all in Port Macquarie. Paul called the Leadership of Grace to not worry if the vessel gets heavy and too slow. He also said don’t rely on human motor strength or becoming too comfortable and to doc in the harbour. And He said be careful of large waves and submerged icebergs.
This is a strong word which is both confirming to the Leadership team and encouraging us.
So we give thanks to the Lord for all He has done and will continue to do. Also please be in prayer for those who have recently suffered broken bones. Jane Bax and Katie Young. Both of these ladies required extensive surgery and metal plates. Let’s believe there will be no disability or ongoing pain, but total and complete healing.
Let’s pray for the Teisen family as they near the end of their stay in USA and be generous towards their needs as they complete the 6 months of Holy Spirit schooling.
This week we look ahead to an exciting Men’s Breakfast with Des from Momentum Men’s ministry. Please text RSVP to Paul Mapstone 0414 850583 if coming and remember cost increase to $10 with proceeds going to EDM.
I will be preaching Sunday and I look forward to completing the series of Stick to the Game plan. Then Amanda and I will be away for 1 week following to visit our newly married son, Peter and Daughter in-law Milly and other son Jared who live in Melbourne.
Love you Church.
Ps Greg and Amanda
