The four regional conferences encompassing Queensland, NSW, Victoria and Tasmania have now been completed and what a rich experience they have been. The theme has been “Alignment for Effective Leadership”, and what kept coming through in every state we visited was the theme that there needs to be total reliance on the leading of the Holy Spirit if we want to have an effective ministry and as we fellowship with Him as a person and hear His counsel. Don’t forget, He is God!! Then our lives become more fruitful then ever before. Fellowship is what we have with the person of the Godhead Who lives within and wants to communicate with you and me and reveal the person of the Father and the Son to you and me more fully and all according to His Word (2 Cor 13:14; John 16:13-15; John 15:26). We can’t treat the Holy Spirit as an impersonal voice but as a friend and as a guide as He can take you through the most difficult of circumstances and help and empower us through to victory.
Let us never be ashamed of being Pentecostals, being filled with the Holy Spirit and being not only filled, but empowered, and allow the living waters to flow from us, in the abundance with which He promised. Saints, this is our inheritance in Christ Jesus (John 7:37-39.
With much love,
