The Prophetic is in the testimony	Mike Vickers encourages us with news that when you share your testimony of Jesus, which is the Spirit of Prophesy, riding on that testimony God reveals ‘the mercy seat’ – the Open Door to the Kingdom of God. “Your testimonies I have taken as a heritage forever, for they are the rejoicing of my heart.” Psalm 119:111 For more on Mike Vickers (Blog on Mike Vickers, Newsletter on Mike Vickers) Mike mentions the song Pioneer by Rick Pino	05/09/2010	Mike Vickers	2010-09-05AM.mp3	No attached Notes

Psalm 91 Bumps Are What You Climb On!	Pastor Phil encourages us that "bad stuff happens to good people" but based on Jacob's ladder,the 'bumps' are what we climb on. Real life is full of bumps and stones but if you can use them to stand on ... tomorrow... you will get higher!

The love of the Father Makes beautiful in His own time	David Norcross reminds us that in a moment of divine, eternity changing destiny, Ruth chose Naomi, her country the land of Israel, but most significantly she chose the God of Israel. David Norcross illustrares that when we choose the Lord our future life will be something that He makes beautiful in His own time. “Ruth replied, 'don’t urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God.'" Ruth 1:16,	15/08/2010	David Norcross	2010-08-15AM.mp3	The love of the Father Makes beautiful.pdf
Expectancy	Richard continues on from the theme of last week. He speaks about 'expectancy'; based on 1 Kings 18: 41- 46, he explains that after prayers we can move to 'a vantage point' of expectancy, by following Elijah's example. "The seventh time the servant reported, "A cloud as small as a man's hand is rising from the sea." So Elijah said, "Go and tell Ahab," 1 Kings 18: 44	08/08/2010	Richard Burgan	2010-08-08AM.mp3	Expectancy.pdf
Prayer	Martin Gaunt reminds us how essential prayer is, that Jesus said "But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you." Matthew 6:6 Also, that "The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend." Exodus 33:11	01/08/2010	Martin Gaunt	2010-08-01AM.mp3	Prayer.pdf

Being spiritually clothed properly	Pastor Paul Arthur preaches from Colossians 3: 1-14; reminding us how we are to be clothed, spiritually, as Christians. "Put on therefore, as elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering; Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another... " Colossian 3:12,13	18/07/2010	Paul Arthur	2010-07-18AM.mp3	No attached Notes
Reaching others Grow you	Pastor Phil concluded the series, in recapping he emphasised the need to be aware of what or more who we carry in our lives as the deposit of God in us. It is a fragrance to those who are seeking God but a smell of death to those who are rejecting him. He highlights that Paul in speaking to Philemon in verse 6 told him that as he was active in sharing his faith it not only grew the kingdom but grew the individual to. Likewise who we are grows as we give away what we have received. (Audio file to follow soon).	11/07/2010	Phil Johnston		Others_4.pdf
REACHING OTHERS: We are accountable	Our series continue, "I must preach the Good News of the Kingdom of God in OTHER towns, too, because that is why I was sent" Luke 4:41 NLT; we must remember that "For God so loved the world, he sent..." John 3:16 and Pastor Phil reminds us that as a church we are "Spirit Empowered - changing lives"	04/07/2010	Phil Johnston	2010-07-04AM.mp3	Others 3.pdf
