Matrix Moments

The mantle
has been placed
on your life,
the cloak of destiny
and revelation,
the vision of
what God has for you,
the vision of how God sees
and deeply loves you
His future dreams and hopes
Leading Your mind, will, soul
Layers to be revealed
affirming your identity.

So
Let go of the wounds
let go of the sins
embrace vulnerable,
Seek counsel
for the journey
in the disappointment, grief, fear
in the tiredness, stress and tests
Seek healing,
live a transforming
beautiful life
by taking the next step
faithful and free again.

For God
Loves you too much
to keep you small
You are now
going to grow
through process and promise
Renewed thoughts of
life and destiny intertwined
You will Stand
in your place
Declaring and decreeing
change in Christ
This is our adventure
in the kingdom...

‘He waka eke noa’
A canoe which we are all in
with no exception

Starting Thoughts: A video spoken word poem on encouraging us to step into renewal, vision and identity and letting go of those things that hinder us.

One hundred and twenty
Personalities waiting
Fifty days after Easter,
could have been anywhere
in a city,
an upstairs crowd of disciples
a temple
in a room,
One hundred and twenty
Minds counted
backwards over ten long days,
a waiting cluster
of fear, praise, hope, faith, prayer
minds and hearts expanding
and contracting their emotions,
Lungs expanding
and contracting on-hold breaths,
And a second ticked by
Maybe a same moment repeated
At the end of the second
time changed
ordinary phased into extraordinary
God moved
and energy danced,
Overpowering wind roared
a sound reverberating
beyond the building
Shaking those in the room
And history repeated
The Pillar of fire
appeared in the room
Awe danced in the Retina reflections
of the disciples as they looked
the fiery column Separated
into Tongues of fire
God’s glory fire
Poured over each one
Poured inward
engulfing
each person present
filling them top to bottom,
encounters exploded within
sparked by the fire of God,
Power for a people to shine
witnesses, living testimonies
empowered
inside and out
ignited with love,
Equipped for mission,
Known by Jesus
now moving
to make Jesus known.

There is something wonderful
about the power of God
Will you go to the room?
Will you pray?
Will you dream?
Will you ask?
Will you open?

Harare mai, Wairua Tapu. (Welcome Holy Spirit)

Starting Thoughts: A video spoken word poem on Pentecost. The Disciples were in a room aware that they were waiting for something to happen, following the crucifixion, resurrection and accession of Jesus. The Holy Spirit -the Helper - was about to pay them a visit.
Bible Verses: John 12:23-24 , Acts 1: 8-11

Created to be connected
to the Living God
centered through the cross,
such a richness
deep in God’s love
death by sin crossed off
forever
forgiven once for all
overwhelmed by His grace
a new world
a new covenant
a new promise
a new kingdom
a daily communion.

And now
cross changed
I believe,
Rebirth in Jesus
Holy Spirit flooded,
everything in abundance
from life’s source
beyond expectation
releasing the River
within me,
Life full and overflowing
Cascading out from my
expanded heart
Touching, awakening
others around
blessing people
my life streaming
God’s deep, deep love.

Bible Verses: John 10:10
Starting Thoughts: The cross covenant of love brings us to a new identity, released to be fully us as we realise the depth of God's favour and love from the river of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

Holy Spirit stir...
Breathe on the embers
Holy Spirit stir...
Breathe on the embers
Let the flame of faith
burn brighter,
Igniting revelation
to sear and take out
the tangled undergrowth,
Replace mind Trapped lies,
in Jesus name.

I welcome the moment
God’s fire bites, cleansing,
a holy fire that burns
that does not consume
but releases my future,
A future here and now
where God’s will encounters me,
Yes Disruption, interruption
the price for an awakening
that will stop
paths of destruction
in my life.

Holy Spirit stir...
Passion and power
Release and freedom
Shifting hearts and minds
Ordinary morphing into extraordinary
Room for the new.

I’m not chained
but changed with this Spirit fire
Changed by a love beyond understanding
Changed to change the world
Changed by the face
of glory shining
from a pure Christ,
Changed by fire in the heart
Light from the Centre
of all that is the universe,
Fire in the heart
To Seek and save the lost
Bringing Visions of new possibilities
Bringing Passion and risk
Pointing to Eternal Life, truth
Awakening our city to Jesus
Raising the name of Jesus

And the Spirit lit the flame...

Starting Thoughts: It is all about Jesus. His love for us, the gift of His life to forgive our sins and give us purpose. In the face of His incomparable love we have a new identity and are changed from the inside out. Not conforming to a set of rules but responding to an amazing love in the power of the Holy Spirit.
