Think About It...

 "Don't be impressed by darkness. Jesus didn't do the opposite of whatever the devil did. He did what He saw the Father doing... The moment I have a lesser sense of Him and a greater sense of the problem, I will live in reaction to the problem." ~ Bill Johnson

This Sunday - Chad Dedmon from Bethel in Redding, CA
BRING A FRIEND FOR THIS!

We are excited to announce that Chad Dedmon will be with us this coming Sunday morning, November 11th in our Grace House service. He will also be ministering at the ARK service. Chad is from Bethel Church in California where Bill Johnson pastors. Many of you have heard the story of the young man who held a healing meeting at the check out line of a supermarket in Redding, CA where several people got healed. That's Chad. He has seen the eyes of the blind opened and many other miracles. We will be blessed as this young man shares his passion for Christ with us. Let's be praying that we all would receive a greater impartation in the area of love and healing in this special service. You can watch a portion of his appearance on the IT'S SUPERNATURAL with Sid Roth by clicking on the link below.

Ever Had A Holy Hunch?
For those who missed the teaching on Wednesday night. Here is the overview and you can listen to it by clicking the link below/

HOLY HUNCHES

Psalm 119:105  
Your word is a lamp to my feet                         
And a light to my path. (NKJV)


Psalm 119:105
By your words I can see where I'm going;
They throw a beam of light on my dark path.(Message Bible)  

                                   

Sometimes when He gives a word, it is:


A STEP


A SEASON


A LIFETIME


AN ETERNITY


What Is A Holy Hunch?

It is the inner prompting and inner witness of the Holy Spirit in a believers life that alerts them and/or invites them to respond in faith to a directive from the Lord.


Jesus Was Led

John 4:3 He left Judea and departed again to Galilee. 4 But He needed to go through Samaria.


Paul Was Led

Acts 16:6 Now when they had gone through Phrygia and the region of Galatia, they were forbidden by the Holy Spirit to preach the word in Asia. 7 After they had come to Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit did not permit them.


We Are Led

Romans 8:14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. 15 For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, "Abba, Father." 16 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17 and if children, then heirs-heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ, if indeed we suffer with Him, that we may also be glorified together.


Thoughts about Holy Hunches


- Leads to the greater purposes of God.


- Creates intersections in your life with others.


- Keeps you sensitive and aware of God's presence.


- Keeps you walking in the will of God.


- Involves partnership with God.


- Shows you some important things about yourself.


- Brings glory to God.

I am excited to introduce someone new to our fellowship, Pastor Stan Tyra. Stan lives in Rogers, Ark. where he pastors Revolution Church. We met on the retreat I attended in N.C. back in August. He was also one of the four of us that was in the UTV accident and he is recovering well. I know you will love his heart and spirit as he comes and ministers to us on Sunday morning, Nov, 18th.

Rooted - Preteen Ministry
We are so excited about "Rooted" which is our ministry to preteens led by Allison Fisher. They are currently working on a human video which they will be sharing in one of our services soon. Each Wednesday they meet to study the Bible together and learn how to live a life rooted in Christ during this important transitional time in their lives. Our preteens are awesome.  All preteens are invited to attend this weekly gathering to build relationship with Christ and one another.

Wrapped in Love Ministry
Jessica Clayton, a member of The Ark, is beginning a Wrapped in Love ministry. She will head up a small group to make easy 2-step blankets. She will teach a class at Grace House/The Ark on how to make these easy projects. Some of the blankets will be given to a new shelter in Sheffield called Heavenly Grace. The Huntsville police have also asked for us to donate for their domestic violence cases and rape victims that they often find unclothed. We will be a part of providing blankets for them to offer these women as cover when they go into these situations. Jessica said that we could help in three ways: monetary gifts, hands on making of the blankets, and actual donations of the fleece material for the blankets. If you'd like to be a part of this ministry, let me know or let Jessica know.
