In this great new Era that we are in, as a generation that sits on the edge of our seats in hopeful anticipation of what God is doing, we hear the cry to be prepared. This is not just a new year, a new season, or a new month, it’s a new Era in which God is intentionally preparing His people to increase His presence. The deepest desire of our heart is to abide in the Presence of God. That is, the church–the people of God–gathered around the Presence of God with the Word of God on a mission for God. But the new Era that He is unfolding is way too big, too powerful, and too widespread to fit only in a building on Sundays. It must be decentralized and scattered like the church was supposed to be in Business, Education, Medicine, Families, Government, and Media. This expression of wisdom through our simple yet powerful gatherings is the very thing that the rulers, principalities, and authorities in Heaven are eagerly watching.

Imagine your life completely free from worry and anxiety. Free from fear and insecurity. Free from anger and unforgiveness. This is the “you” that God intended for you to be. Nothing in your mind, body, or soul was meant to work well when weighed down by these things. Rather, every cell in your body was created to live in peace and joy. When you, as a Jesus-follower, actually live in the truth that God takes away your sins, you’ll find that your real personality shines! The real you is peeking through! You radiate peace and joy! Do you want a taste of this kind of life?

What if the timing of when you were born was sovereignly ordained, by a God who is present and powerful, for the purpose of setting you up to do good works that will help form the atmosphere of a city? What if the place where you live and work and play is all sovereignly orchestrated by God? What if the very place you call your city is missing a crucial element to be fully complete and experience the peace and prosperity it was meant to have, and God made you to be that very element? We are considering the significance of who God placed in each city so that we can understand that we are a large part of the strategy for our Cities to be renewed. And the way in which God is orchestrating change in and through us, is where our affections rest.

We are finishing up our time in the book of Joshua. Reading the story of Joshua has allowed us time to seek the Lord and hear the Word from our Father that He's spoken over our lives. You have a Joshua call, an assignment, a mantle to pick up for your city just as he did for Israel. Although we are finishing the book of Joshua, this is only the beginning of our City Renewal focus: dedicating our lives to serve others. In the Old Testament, rest follows conflict; but in the New Testament era, we fight from a place of rest. Because of the victory that Jesus has already accomplished for us, we are empowered to fight to retain what is rightfully ours. The danger in living in such abundance, having been given all things that pertain to life and godliness, we might be so enamored with the gifts, blessings, privilege, favor and security that we forget the One who authored all of it. Coming back to abide in God's Presence, in the Word, is the place we live. Let's end like Joshua, making a decision to follow God, not His gifts.

We are continuing in the City Renewal Series as we see God’s desire to bring His will and His heart to the people in their place of influence. This week, we are in chapters 11 and 12 of the book of Joshua. As we have read through Joshua, we are seeing him strengthen himself in the Lord, pick up the assignment God gives him, cross obstacles that are in the way of his journey, and obtain the Promised Land that belongs to God's people. You can look at this war the Israelites are in one of two ways; That Joshua had an agenda to kill seemingly innocent people for a land that was filled with abundance, or that God was cleansing the land of defilement, which was His agenda long ago, and He was looking for a people to submit to His will. The latter is the exact idea that God wants to do in your city. He has a plan. He wants His kingdom to come and His city to be built. Will you pick up your Joshua assignment and lead your city to the destiny God designed?

In our reading of the book of Joshua, Israel has defeated Jericho and Ai, and now 4 kings are gathering their forces to try to defeat the Israelites, keeping them from possessing the land, but God has a plan. Know this: God has a promised land, and a plan, for you as well. Your part is to believe: believe God, believe in the calling, believe in the promise. But we can easily become connected to the wrong vision or people who influence our ways of thinking, living, and behaving, causing us to battle with doubt and unbelief. We need to be wise about who we walk with because God is working to save the world: first by partnering with Israel, and now with us. Are you in?

For this Baptism Weekend, we are looking at why Jesus Himself received a baptism and how the answer to that question informs us about His redemptive mission on the earth, and why we, as His followers, receive a baptism as well. Here at Grace, we define water baptism as "an outward declaration of an inward transformation". It is the physical act that testifies of God's complete work in us. It reveals His willingness to give Himself for us, and our willingness to abandon everything to have more of Him. If Jesus indeed died for us, then who are we to not live for Him.

We are continuing in our City Renewal series going through the book of Joshua together. The story of Joshua has been dramatic so far. God speaks “Strong and Courageous” over Joshua (you), and calls him to cross the Jordan with the priests leading the way. We have seen great victory over strongholds (Jericho) and are making progress in our faith. We now come upon Ai, a smaller city that seems like it should be easily overtaken, yet Israel is not victorious due to the sin of one man. We see in Chapter 7 that it’s not just a story of Achan and his greed, it’s a parallel to our inner world. It's a picture of how our heart works and the destruction of sin. It’s a chapter that demonstrates that while faith pleases God, there is also power in a life of faith that’s not just a supplement to pleasing Him. There will be prosperity. There will be success in the promised land. There will be great victories, but the secret brings us back to chapter one.
