Week 6 of the Wednesday night messages on our current Isaiah 56 focus is on what that promise means related to the cry of the Church and our deep longing and desire for Jesus to come and establish His kingdom in the earth.
Isaiah 56 Focus – Week 6 – Kingdom Come (56min, 16.1MB)
Week six the focus is on the cry that fills the prayers of God’s house. Again, there is some background thoughts and verses, and then passages to meditate on. Return to these as often as you like (our suggestion is every day during this period!), dialog with the Lord about what they mean to Him, use the questions at the bottom as fuel, and then pray it: God if that’s what’s in your heart than do … in me, and do … in my city and in the nations of the earth!
Week 6: The Cry of God’s House – Kingdom Come
PDF Handout – Week 6 – Kingdom Come
Background Verses: There is a cry associated with the call to be “a house of prayer” that you simply won’t find anywhere else. Everybody prays – in the sense that we cry out for help in our time of need – some to a God we know and some to a god they don’t know and aren’t even sure exists. When Jesus teaches His followers how to pray, though, there’s a different cry, birthed from knowing and hearing our Father in heaven and praying from heaven to earth for His plans to be fulfilled, that is first and primary before our own physical, spiritual and even ministerial needs.

Part 2 in a series on Foundations for Intercession.
Our hearts can’t really enter into intercession, without first believing certain critical things about our God, our world and our crisis. We have to believe in an all-good, all-powerful God. Which means that we have to wrestle with the injustice and suffering that is so clearly present in our world and what it is that we’re supposed to do with that. The answer is found in who our God is and where this is all going.
Foundations for Intercession – pt2 – Worldview (19.7MB 59min+ministry time)
Tim teaches on the DNA of ministry with a forerunner spirit: what are the essential characteristics of doing ministry in a way that makes sense in light of the return of Jesus? How do we make ready a people prepared for the Lord? Scripture tells us a lot about what’s on God’s heart for this generation, and it’s very different than what we’ll find ourselves doing by default. We need a revelation of eternity and the kingdom of God if we’re to partner with God in something of eternal significance.

Part 1 in the series: “Vision for a Burning Heart”
As we kick off our Wednesday night Burning Hearts Gathering, we’re looking at a vision for how and why God wants to raise up a company of burning ones: those who have encountered His beauty, His glory and His love, who can overcome the accusations of the enemy and tear down every lie that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and destroys men and women made to know Him.
