Harp, Bowl & Crown Report Metro-Atlanta By Jacquie Tyre
There
is a fresh wind blowing across the land - a wind that is blowing away
the dross of the last season, bringing a refreshing to the weary,
releasing renewed strength, and lifting us higher into His presence.
It is a time to allow the presence of the Lord to do whatever it is
that you need -- let go and soar with Him! Be careful to not resist His
wind, even when it seems different that it has in days gone by --
It
is a new day and we must let go of our past notions and move with the
Holy Spirit in every area of our lives. The Spirit of the Lord is
wooing us into deeper places of worship & communion, and at times
it is going to be challenging to stay the course, but I urge you --
don't back up. The very thing you are searching for, yearning for, and
needing will be found and released as you press in to His presence at a
new depth. Deep calls unto deep....Psalm 42:7
RALLY THE TROOPS, HARP BOWL & CROWN GATHERING REPORT
This
past Thursday night's Harp, Bowl & Crown Gathering at New Covenant
Community was outstanding. The house was full....of the presence of the
Lord, and the people of God. And joy filled the house! 1 Chronicles
12:23-40 was a running theme through the evening of all the tribes
coming together as one-people with a loyal heart as the Family of God
that could then move out as the Army of God to advance Christ's
Kingdom. We began with food & fellowship, and moved into a powerful
evening of praise, worship, exhortations, proclamations, and decrees.
The time of fellowship was so refreshing and encouraging as everyone
mingled and enjoyed meeting and getting to know the Family of God from
all over metro-Atlanta. It was abundantly clear that the Lord had
called for this time of feasting and celebrating.
As the worship began to fill the room, anticipation, excitement, and a
pure & holy hunger for the Lord seemed to explode. The message of
the evening was the Lord calling us to be the Family of God so that
when we went out to battle as the Army of God we would guard and
protect each other -- and our city would no longer be known as a place
where "friendly fire" takes out many. The call to ONENESS & UNION
to bring all our diversity of gifts, callings, experience, and life
together as ONE PEOPLE with a LOYAL HEART, EXPERT IN WAR, KNOWING HOW
TO MOVE IN BATTLE FORMATION, AND SERVING TOGETHER TO ADVANCE CHRIST
KINGDOM. (see 1 Chronicles 12:23-40)
An emphasis was brought forth on the significance of the date of our
gathering, on the Hebrew Calendar -- the First of Elul, relating to
Haggai 1 and clearly hearing the Lord say -- IT IS TIME for the HOUSE
OF THE LORD TO BE BUILT. We must consider our ways and turn our
attention and devotion to what is the heart of the Lord - to see His
House Built and His Kingdom Established -- and to move forward in
ONENESS of the Spirit with each other.
As the worship started up again, the Holy Spirit drew us into a deep
place of His presence to SHINE as HIS LIGHTS in the midst of darkness
that many would see and come to know Christ, and it was declared
prophetically that we have indeed entered into a NEW SEASON -- it is a
NEW DAY! Hallelujah.
At one point in the evening Holy Spirit began talking with me about how
those who were gathered had been scattered, wounded, and hidden in the
"cave of Adullum", and that now was the time for a commissioning - or
in many cases, a recommissioning - into active duty in the Army of God.
In a prophetic act of obedience to what the Lord was speaking we called
for everyone to receive their commissioning from the Lord by walking
under the canopy of the Sword & Staff that had been presented to me
as the state apostolic coordinator for the GAPN & the US Alliance
for Reformation. Many were visibly touched by the Lord as we embraced
our commission together - for His purposes. By
faith, we extend that commissioning to all of you who say, "Yes, Lord!
I answer Your call to be active in the Family of God to serve as
members of Army of God in this season...to advance Your Kingdom."

FUTURE PLANS
There is so much more that could be shared and we are working on having
a podcast & CDs of the evening available on our website in the near
future so you will be able to join in. Look
for future gatherings as we know we are to do this around the
metro-area and across the state - month by month - to rally, gather,
and advance together. If you would like to host one of these
gatherings in our area, in metro-Atlanta or somewhere across the State,
drop me an email and let's see what God will have us to do.
ALGNING FOR KINGDOM COVENANT PURPOSES AT ROSH HASHANA IN SAVANNAH (SEPT 18-19)
Our next gathering will be in Savannah, during Rosh Hashana, Sept 18-19 at Coastal Cathedral. Ken Malone (Forerunner Ministries, Florida USAR State Coordinator ), Frank Seignious (Doulous Disciples, South Carolina USAR & USRPN State Coordinator), Mark Hawkins (His Presence Ministries, Alabama USRPN & HAPN State Coordinator) and I (Kairos Transformation, USAR, USRPN & HAPN Georgia State Coordinator) will be hosting a weekend to align our states into covenant with each other for Kingdom purposes. On Saturday evening, Messianic Rabbi David Schiff (Jezreel Ministries,
member of the Kairos board and the Georgia apostolic council) will be
joining us to lead the way in helping us to properly align with God's
Covenant People, Israel. There
will be powerful worship, intercession, prophetic proclamations, and
teaching geared to equip and empower us all for this new season in the
Lord. There is no registration for the weekend, but you will be given
the opportunity to give offerings to sow into the continuation of these
ministries, and a special offering will be taken on Saturday night to
bless ministry into Israel.
For His Glory,

Special Bulletin written by Rick Joyner on the proposed House Health Care Bill. It is a serious wake-up to all of us to pray and take a stand for our nation's future. This is not a political agenda issue, it is an issue of freedom and preservation of the virtues that our nation was founded upon that are based on the principles of the Word of God, including the value of all life and the principles of honoring our mothers & fathers and the elderly among our population. Please read, pray, act, and pass on the information to others. Today many are sensing that things are deficient and out of order in the Church of the 21st century, especially in the American Church. Dutch Sheets points out that in his grandfather’s generation, 65% of them were born again and active in their faith. In his father’s generation it went down to 35%. Then in his generation, it drops down to 15%. The most alarming statistic is that we are told today’s generation--the youth of our nation--is probably around 4% that call themselves true followers of Christ. When you add these sad statistics to the recent scandals among the leadership of churches and ministries which, by the way, have so diminished our credibility that it will take years to restore, you can’t help but cry out for change! The Church desperately needs revival and beyond revival, we need a massive reformation. The Church must change! We have identified five Foundation Pillars For The Reformation Of The Church . . . We have entered into a new season and a new level of warfare, unlike what we have seen before, and we must not shrink back or allow the enemy to distract us from the assignments of the Lord in this season. There is a promised land ahead of us, and much like the children of Israel, after God had removed Moses and moved Joshua into the place of leadership. We must quickly adapt to the new and refrain from looking back to "the way things used to be."
As in the transition from the leadership of Moses to that of Joshua, so today, we must shift from what has been and the ways we have operated in the past into the new season of entering into new warfare to occupy the promised land that lies before us. This new season requires a new fervency of intercession. Let's shift and advance! |
