We’re in lockdown and it feels like we’re just waiting. Lockdown or not, this side of heaven there is always a sense of waiting for something. Waiting in Scripture is an active stance. Debbie reminds us that our stance in the waiting determines our advancement!

The story of Jesus calming the storm is very familiar to many of us, yet it speaks so powerfully to our current circumstances. The disciples needed their external world to change to feel ok on the inside. Jesus had peace and calm on the inside and released that into the external atmosphere. He lived from the inside out. As Kingdom people, that is our mandate!

Proverbs 23:7 says, “As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.” Our heart thinks! We are learning to respond to the voice of the Spirit of Adoption, but we undermine that voice if we cultivate something different on the inside. We need to pay attention to our internal atmosphere - the things we have playing on repeat inside us. We know the Kingdom is established in us when our internal world is domi...

Our dear friend Matt Beckenham - Senior Leader of Haberfield Baptist Church brings us an encouraging word about “Permission” - intermingling the message with personal and corporate prophetic ministry.

Debbie leads us in a time of prophetic ministry and prayer for healing, then Tim follows on from two weeks ago and ministers into the spirit of adoption - that voice from The Father that chases away fear. The language that The Father speaks isn’t just about the words spoken. The nature of the voice - it’s tone, it’s essence brings with it the touch of His presence. It’s this voice that allows us t...

Ephesians 4 tells us that we are pursuing mature love - the fullness of Christ. There is a spirit that is rife in Australia culture that wars against mature love - the spirit of rejection. Tim unpacks how the spirit of rejection gets a hold in us, how it operates, and how The Father wants to bring healing to our rejection wounds and connect us back to our core identity.

It’s the start of week three of our 21 prayer and fasting season. Fasting seasons have a tendency to reveal what’s happening in our heart. When our normal “comforters” that silence our heart aren’t there, our heart starts to let us know how it’s doing. Tim looks at a story in Acts 28 that illustrates what to do in “fire seasons” when stuff comes to the surface so that we are transformed people. It...

Today begins our “Saturate” season - 3 weeks of prayer, fasting, and pursuing Him with laser focus. In week 1 we pursue our own personal breakthrough and upgrade. Tim and Debbie speak and minister into the “ruined cities” spoken of in Isaiah 61. God wants to heal those “ruined” places in our life that have been devastated for generations, so that you can become a restorer to the world around you.

Debbie speaks into the three key prophetic themes she is hearing for 2021, then leads us into a time of connection with The Father’s voice to hear His heart for us.

In our first in-person gathering in nearly 10 months, Tim kicks off 2021 with the core question of “What is your life building toward? Are you just living, or are you BUILDING?” This is the year to do whatever needs to be done, and deal with whatever needs to be dealt with, so that we can be intentional and active in building His Kingdom in line with our Kingdom assignment.

Since 2017, one thing (among many) that God has been doing is “exposing” - works of darkness and things that are out of order have been brought into the light. That is intensifying in this season. Globally, we need to be on the side of truth, and praying that every hidden thing would be brought into the light. Personally, 2020 has had the effect of exposing the true condition of our heart - especi...

The Father is taking us on a journey of helping us grow up - particularly in the realm of maturing love. We know from 1 John 4:18 that the RESULT of mature love is that it chases away fear. But what is the NATURE of mature love? In part 2 of this message, Tim makes some more comparisons between immature and mature love, and then minister’s into a fresh revelation of the love of the Father - a fres...

We’ve all been raised by imperfect love, so it’s no wonder that at times we fear.,, but, it’s important we don’t stay there. The Father is taking us on a journey of helping us grow up - particularly in the realm of maturing love. We know from 1 John 4:18 that the RESULT of mature love is that it chases away fear. But what is the NATURE of mature love? Tim makes 3 comparisons between immature and m...

The word “established” is standing out prophetically right now. There’s a number of different “establishings” that scripture talks about. Today, Tim focuses on “being established in love”. Once we are established, God has ordered the body with apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers, and evangelists, with the purpose that we may then mature - grow up. We all need spiritual mothers and fathers in our...

How do we create a culture where we make it easier for everyone to strengthen themselves in the Lord? We all have an individual responsibility for our own heart, and, how we are when we are TOGETHER either helps or hinders that. Tim follows on from Deb’s message, showing us how to create a culture that means we are a refreshing oasis to each other, and ultimately to the world around us.

We’ve been talking about this next season being one where the body of Christ is a place of refreshing to the world. It’s not possible for us to do that if we are feeling horrible and depleted. The solution - we need to learning how to strengthen ourselves in the Lord, from the inside out, so that what flows out of us is life-giving. Debbie speaks of the shift that is needed - getting our soul adeq...

Tim follows up from last week, digging into Isaiah 60 as a key strategic prophetic word for this season. God is releasing fragments of revelation around our identity and our assignment to enable and empower our rising. He’s breathing in fresh passion, awakening our first love - getting us into a place of deep refreshment - so that we are positioned and ready to rise into the fullness of the glory...

Isaiah 60 tells us that when the earth is covered with darkness and deep darkness is over the people, that’s the time when God’s glory comes and causes His people to rise. The key here is it’s YOUR RISING - not God’s, but YOURS. Tim unpacks this “reset” season, bringing a prophetic perspective and promise so that we are perfectly positioned to do our part in seeing the world covered with His glory...

In another epic tag-team, Debbie & Megan explore the power of the confession of our mouth. What we say has power and authority. What we say is fruit of what is happening in our heart, so rather than put tape over our mouth so we don’t “say the wrong thing” we need to let the Spirit touch and heal our heart so that our confession is naturally in agreement with His voice. When our confession is in a...

Deb Ferris & Megan Edward powerfully tag-team to bring this word about humility - going low. Humility is often misunderstood as being a door mat, or being in poverty. In fact, humility is a Kingdom secret weapon that the enemy has no answer for.

When chaos and craziness abound, our biggest unfair advantage is that we have the voice of God. One of the biggest disciplines/skills we need is the ability to quiet our soul to the point where we can hear the voice of God above all the other voices that are shouting at us right now. There’s lots of ways God speaks. In this message Tim focusses on hearing the voice of God through scripture, and th...

In crazy and chaotic times, it’s so important to know how to get your soul restored. Tim leads us through an experiential exercise to help you get anchored to the unconditional love of God and have Him restore our souls.

Tim & Deb Ferris do a live and interactive chat around all we’ve been digging into over the past few weeks on “the normal Christian life”, including testimonies, live questions, and a visit from the legendary Steve Frost.

In part two of this series, Tim continues looking at the baptism in the Holy Spirit, and reminds us that one of our most important roles in this Kingdom family is to tend to the fire of the Holy Spirit in our midst and keep that fire burning bright.
