There is creative synergy in thanksgiving: it unleashes the hidden armies of the Lord of Hosts; it demonstrates the reality of God as your defender; it turns your battleground into your blessing-ground! Thanksgiving grants God instant access to your world. Invite Him into your situation through praise and worship!
As you gaze upon the glory of God, you are transformed into His likeness in ever increasing measure! What you behold you become. Respond to the Lord's invitation to come deeper into HIs Presence because it is transformed people that transform cities.
Embrace the assignment that the Lord has given you by stewarding it well and it will have external impact. Being in the glory of God is of paramount importance to completing this task because it is in His Presence that you are enabled to see eternity. No giant looks big in the glory!

The world will not be changed by bored Christians who don't want to be here. Passion is contagious so fan the flame in your own heart by enjoying the life that the Lord has set before you. For the sake of the world, come alive with child-like faith and wonder!

We bare the nature of God on the earth and carry His purpose. God has no needs, His desire is for us to be like Him. There is a reward for meeting God in the secret place. The purpose of prayer is fullness of joy: "Ask and you will receive, that your joy may be full"
In biblical times, labor and work were an expression of worship to God. The Lord wants us to re-evaluate the purpose of labor and capture its divine purpose. Un-employment is an attempt of the enemy to rob mankind of their worship to God. We will generously give to the Kingdom, to the poor, to missions, and watch as the economy of our region is changed.
Worship is not music, it is not singing, it is not dancing, painting or shouting- these are only expressions of our worship. Worship is us pouring out our love on God, and in turn, Him pouring out His love on us. It is all a relationship. It is about learning to trust Him. Fighting for your connection with God is so much easier when you are in love! One encounter with God's love changes everything.
