THE PURPOSE OF SPIRITUAL BIRTHING
Spiritual birthing is yet a tender and delicate subject within the body of Christ. So often it is misunderstood. When we request a spiritual 'mid-wife', we responded to a natural human need to be assisted or helped in all our endeavors. This is a frailty and weakness found only in humans. Yet man says: "for the children have come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring them forth"(2 Kings 19:3). BUT GOD SAYS: "Shall I bring to the birth, and not cause to come forth?...shall I cause to bring forth, and shut the womb?..."(Isa. 66:9)
I am glad the Holy Spirit shows us the instinct of animals...they need no 'mid-wife', they need no help. When God created animals he put within them an 'animalistic' instinct and natural ability to have sex, get pregnant, and then give birth. As soon as that is over, the process begins again, and often time not with the same mate. We humans and Christians would frown upon that because we don't understand nor can we accept the natural(and spiritual) processes that God put in place. That is simply because of our sin nature. We became dependent...the man is dependent on the ground from whence he came, the woman's desire is to the man(her husband) she can't have sons or daughters without his seed. Hence the need to be born again so that we may understand the things of the Spirit(John 3:1-21).
Spirit needs no midwife nor direction to conceive or bring about...(it blows here it listeth..."John 3:8) its a spiritual process...its a spiritual thing. Let me go deeper, and please spare my ignorant indulgence. God saw a virgin in Israel, he needed a vessel to bring His son, Jesus into flesh. And according to Galatians 4:4-5 'in the fullness of time...' It happened. But let's examine the process. An angel appeared, spoke to a virgin who had never known a man, told her she would conceive, and the Holy Spirit came upon her, and nine months later she had a baby in a stable, in a manger in Bethlehem...all by herself and her husband; no indication of a midwife, or crying or any such thing. She had it among the animals...and they understood. The child in her was HOLY. Again forgive my depth of ignorance(Luke 1:26-40; 2:1-21).
Last year I was about to publish a book called: "PROPHETIC BIRTHING". I cancelled the project because the Holy Spirit spoke and said: "this generation of believers are not ready or prepared for such things". We associate everything with flesh and that is how we, even as christians, judge all things. Such things should not be. For 'that which is born of flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit'( John 3:6) I hope some of this may help. I would say more, but I prefer to allow the Spirit to speak to you instead. There is much that we in the body must learn if we are to win a generation not yet born to Christ Jesus.
SPIRITUAL BIRTHING IS A PROCESS THAT ONLY THE HOLY SPIRIT CAN BRING ABOUT. IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH OUR FLESH...
IT IS DESIGNED TO BRING ABOUT SPIRITUAL THINGS INTO THE NATURAL...
THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN TO MANKIND...
THE WILL OF THE FATHER BE DONE ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN...
THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS AND DOMINION BACK TO MAN AS GOD GAVE IT...
TO BRING HONOR TO GOD THE FATHER AND HIS SON JESUS CHRIST...
THE BLESSINGS OF ABRAHAM TO THE GENTILES...
THESE THINGS ARE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED... BE BLESSED.

Oh Wow! Comformation OUR MISSION STATEMENT & PURPOSE!! AMEN!!
Jesus said, "go into all the world and make disciples of all men." He also said, "don't you know that 'you' are the temple of the HolyGhost! and that, "God does not live in a house built with hands."
We are convensed that we are not to go out and witness but to 'be' a witness in our every action and word. (grace abounding, no less)
We also believe that, while it is good to fellowship and congregate with other believers, it is best to be the house of the Living God! We are His indwelling, no house built with mens hands, but the work of the True and Living God!
We are of course still under construction... so while you may find errors in us, our foundation is sure! and our Chief cornerstone is strong and well placed!
"NOT BY MIGHT, NOR BY POWER,
BUT BY MY SPIRIT SAYS THE LORD."

Four Main Keys To Abundance
Four Main Keys To Abundance
2 CORINTHIANS 9:8 NKJ
8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that
you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an
abundance for every good work.
No matter how little you make, acting on these 4 keys will
insure a brighter financial future. Neglecting them, no matter
how much you make, will eventually cause a financial crash.
1. Believe God desires to prosper you.
True belief requires evidence. God's Word has the evidence to
convince you: God's will is abundance for all. The world system
constantly shouts a different message, so we must continue to
feed on the truth of God's Word to keep our faith strong.
2. Worship God with a portion of all your income.
You need God's blessing in your finances. Put God first. Don't
neglect this.
3. Spend less than you make.
"If your outgo exceeds your income, then your upkeep will be
your downfall." Consume all you make and you will never have
anything.
Discipline yourself to never spend all your "seed." Always save
some to invest for a future.
4. Invest the rest, prayerfully.
God knows the future. Let Him guide you where to put your
money. Don't jump into things that seem like "sure things." Be
patient and pray. If you are not sure, don't do it.
God knows what's best for you, and He will guide you, if you
seek Him. Over time, with God's blessing, your investments, no
matter how small they start, will grow and be a great blessing.
Don't make excuses. Just act on these 4 vital keys and see what
God will do. Start today.
SAY THIS: I will act on God's wisdom and God will bless my
finances.

Word for our friends in AU today!
Cindy Jacobs: Word of the Lord for Australia
by Cindy Jacobs
Oct 26, 2011
Word of the Lord for Australia written mid-air between Perth and Brisbane, September 22, 2011 8:00pm Brisbane time:
There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening. The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the Church.
There is a coming shaking of the continent in order for a great awakening. I saw in a sequence of visions the whole of Australia as a giant, old-fashioned alarm clock – and it was ringing to awaken the Church to the hour of destiny.
The next vision in the series was of scales of justice. They were tipping, and in the distance I saw a huge storm gathering. Stones had been dropped onto the scales on both sides. I noted they had the words of past prayers from the generations. The prayers have thus far "balanced," as it were, the economy of the nation.
The third and last in the series was of an hour glass. The sands of time that had been allowed to stay the coming storms were slipping fast away while waiting for the Church to be a loud voice of righteousness in the nation.
Interpretation
The shakings thus far are beginning to awaken the Church. There will be something of the nature of the American Tea Party that will arise in which the Church will have a loud voice.
Pastors will find their hearts stirred with a passion to preach like flames of fire and begin to move the nation into her destiny as The Great Southland of the Holy Spirit. This will begin with a remnant, especially among the youth leaders, but will stir up a reformational spirit throughout the Church.
The Church will develop a passion to support whatever party stands on the side of God and His laws. They will cry out for justice and take no political side except that of those who are on the Lord's side. They will be pro-life and pro-biblical marriage.
The time is short for this movement to arise. The economy will yet shake and people will fear and look for new governmental leadership. There will be pockets of the nation such as Western Australia that are like the land of Goshen, and they will feel the economic shaking far less. "Do not fear, children of God, but pray and I will keep and bless you in the midst of the shakings."
This movement will be a forerunner to not only a massive governmental reformation on many levels but a fervor to see Australia re-capture her Biblical roots. Those who are trying to re-image the nation will find themselves voted out of office on a sweeping tide if the Church will awaken and see the lateness of the hour.
The new move will be extreme in some aspects as it will be far out on the sacred edge. It will be counter-cultural in its stand for holiness, justice for the poor, and the protection of unborn children.
Canberra will shake. Shakings will come in unlikely places. The winds will blow and produce tides of change.

Get Back Up! Confronting the Powers of Darkness
"Get Back Up"
by David Hogan
In his bold and confident style, David Hogan shares some of his background as a pastor from Louisiana preaching the Gospel and shares some testimonies of what is taking place in many un-churched, war torn lands. He says that while the circumstances may appear bleak, his peace comes from knowing that God has called him and therefore God will protect him.
We can all work miracles and do the works of Christ because it all comes by the Holy Spirit — there is no demon that hasn't been defeated. His stories of the miraculous done through the hands of courageous new Believers encourage us that anyone can release the power of God if we will simply believe that we are called.
"Confronting the Powers of Darkness"
by David Hogan
David Hogan begins this message by sharing his experience preaching atthe Pentagon. Again, David's manner is humorous and to the point. God desires those who will worship Him and serve Him with their whole heart — the heart that is willing to lay down all for God.
He invites Believers to enter into a life of bold confidence in God because when God calls you, He promises to be with you through every trial. We learn that when God is our Refuge and Strong Tower, the trials and dangers that we face lose their power of intimidation.
After several failed attempts to raise people from the dead, David finds victory and sees God's power demonstrated as his own grandchild is brought back to life. David states, "It's not your losing streak that matters, it's God's winning streak." If you want to see the power of God, you have to step into it in spite of circumstances, trials or past failures.
