I find it certainly interesting and intriguing that while we prepared to receive the prophetic ministry of Dave and Kaitlyn Hoeflein, a series of tornadoes and straight-line winds ripped through our region Sunday morning (May 26). Consequently, once we had some time to put it all in perspective, it was refreshing to hear from several folks this past Sunday who shared insight and gave reports of those affected by the storms.  (The audio and video of Sunday’s message is available online and on The Rock app).

The spiritual illustration of a vortex is definitely prominent in our ecclesia culture.  When winds and atmospheric (spiritual conditions) circumstances form, tornadic and hurricane like systems develop in the heavens that most notably rearrange things and impact the earth.  When we speak of vortexes in the ecclesia, we are not usually speaking of them in a destructive way.  Vortexes repel objects away and draw other objects into its center.  A healthy kingdom life and lifestyle does much the same.  If we are affecting and influencing our region for Christ and His kingdom, we must constantly be judging situations that currently exist in our life and those which are being introduced….as well as those in the region.  Additionally, as we “center” our own lives in and through Christ, we are preaching the gospel of the kingdom in the region to do the same.

Blessings,
