Gen Fire Melbourne
We live in exciting times. This weekend past, August 9-11 2013 saw the beginnings of Generation Fire Mobile Ministry schools launch in the the western gateway to Melbourne. Sureway International Ministries Australia hosted the very first mobile intensive school and it surpassed all expectation. We saw a hunger for a deeper intimacy with God arise from all who came and the I believe that God birthed a new anointing of revelation and miracles.
From the moment we launched on the Friday night it was not hard to feel the presence of God and many people had their first real encounter with the Holy Spirit. The atmosphere on Friday night was very thick and the glory of God was showering over the place. It reminds me of the scripture in Exodus 40:34-38
Then the cloud covered the Tent of Meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out; but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out--until the day it lifted. So the cloud of the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel during all their travels....
It reminds me of waiting upon the presence of God and moving only when He moved. This weekend was very much like the people of Israel. We waited until He moved and stayed when He stayed. Many people were delivered and others were just dancing in His presence. It was only a touch of what I believe is yet to come.
Saturday we had the all day worskshops and I was very encouraged about the future and the future leaders that are rising out of their comfort zones. Saturday night was a very deep prayer night and the call to war was raised with the banner of Yeshua leading us on. Many people were touched by the presence of God and began prophesying and praying like warriors they are called to be.
Sunday was a very significant day as we all worshiped God together as one church and rejoiced with the people from Sureway and again the presence of God was tangible and we saw healings and breakthrough in many people. God had gracefully opened the door for the team to go and minister with the people from LJC (Lord Jesus Church) in Werribee, South West of Melbourne and again we saw the immense power of God rock the house and we had a powerful time in the Spirit. Marty Mitchell gave a powerful teaching on the connection between worship and prayer and the entire church was filled with God's anointing.
I rejoice with what our Father has done and is doing and I know this is the beginning of something beautiful and powerful. The team that came to serve Donny McGregor, Marty Mitchell, Bob Crotchford, Shiree Lind and accompanied by Ben Newby and Daniel Nixon were a blessing to us all and led us into God's presence with humility and grace. I am thankful for what is going to transform in the coming days, weeks and months.... Onwards we march to glory guys!!!!
