From the Archives - Shifting Seasons (Jabbok Pt 3)

The only direction in the Kingdom of God is forward, towards the incredible plan that He has for us. One day when Jesus was walking through Jerusalem, the woman with the issue of blood grabbed the hem of His garment in expectation of healing and a change of season. God doesn't respond to need, He responds to faith. As with the lady in this passage of scripture, we must come to God in expectation and hunger so we can be thrust into the next season that He has for us.

From the Archives - Jabbok (Jabbok Pt 2)

Jabbok is where Jacob wrestled with the angel of the Lord, and means "a place of passing over". It is a place to empty yourself and pour yourself out before the Lord. Often we walk in a place of partial surrender, but God calls us to lay everything down before Him - even those secret things that we have tried to hide. The gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ is one of full and glorious surrender.

From the Archives - The Violence of the Holy Spirit (Jabbok Pt 1)

As a body, we are in a state of transition. Many people are cocooned by the struggles and hurts of life, but the process of each of us getting out of our cocoons is essential for us to gain strength. The ultimate destination of a caterpilar is not to be a caterpillar, and your ultimate destination is not to stay where you are. The Holy Spirit enables each of us to break out of passivity and woundedness, and into the great plans He has for us.
