Kotahi te kōhao o te ngira e kuhuna ai te miro mā, te miro pango, te miro whero.

There is but one eye of the needle through which the white thread, the black thread, and the red thread must pass.

This is a time to lift our eyes, discern God’s renewing work, and build with faith, nurturing life, creating beauty, pursuing justice, and investing courageously in God’s promised future.

Questions worth considering: Where have we come from? Who do we belong to? Who have we become? Where are we now? Where are we going?

God is awakening and tuning a resonant rich prophetic creative sound in these days.

We’re standing at a crossroads and there’s an invitation, a Holy Spirit karanga, how will we respond?

Prophesy is a brilliant gift from God, so valuable that we need to know how to weigh and discern the true from the false, both word and messenger.

Prophesying as bird sings speaks of prophetic ministry that is authentic, authoritative, and impacting - this is our privilege and responsibility.

Come writer’s, poets, painters and creatives of all kinds… the times they are -changing.

Encouragement for turbulent times.

The path of liberating grace is surprising, counterintuitive, and disarming, but there’s a tantalising invitation to freedom in the spirit today.

Just as with great art (like this example by Wassily Kandinsky) good prophetic ministry exhibits both structure and flow working in partnership together.

If we are building, we need to pay attention to the blueprint, and we need to make sure we have laid a good foundation that allows the building to rise and stand the test of time.

God is speaking and we can learn to recognise his voice.

God is Speaking, Learn to Hear

Everyone has been created with the capacity to communicate with God, beginning with hearing and responding to his voice. Usually, God is speaking, but people haven’t learned to recognise how he speaks, and so miss out. We all can learn to hear God’s voice and to walk and talk with him.

Going where God is, focussing on him and engaging with him, is the way we learn to walk in the Spirit and enjoy all God has blessed us with in Christ.
