A Prayer "Warrior's" parting words for Vineyard
Tim McKeon has been the leader of our Prayer Ministry for quite some time. He is being relocated (through his job at DuPont) to Mississippi, and we will miss him. To many who don't know him well, he's the guy who was always dancing and waving the flags around when the Holy Spirit would so move him during Worship. For those who knew him, he was a Prayer Warrior, a true fully armed and armored soldier for God. Tim is responsible for many untold hours of intercessory prayer for each of God's family and the church (both in and outside Vineyard's walls).
Vineyard's prayer front is being left in the capable hands of Ken Rodriquez. On Tim's last Sunday with use he shared a bit of prophesy for our church: What I see are Giftings …
- Teaching & equipping the body of Christ
- Stewardship of Worship and ‘teaching worship'
- A place of healing for the wounded. A safe place.
I see Warnings for traps…
Teaching
- We need to go from knowledge to intimacy.
- Be careful that as we train and equip, that we go beyond the “Tree of Knowledge” to the “Tree of Life”
- Go from knowing God's love to knowing the God of Love.
Worship (not directed at our praise and worship bands, but directed at all of us in ‘our' worship)
- Be careful that we don't get stuck on one style
- Watch out for pride that ‘we do it right'
- Let our praise be an “offering” (with humility) before the Lord
- Use worship to teach intimacy
Healing
- That we don't let people get away with “keeping their wounds”
- That we see that people are healed
I see Blessings…
- YAHWEH-NISSI : "The Lord Our Banner" - And Moshe (Moses) built an altar, and called its name; YAHWEH NISSI, that is, Yahweh is my banner, For he said; Hands will be lifted up to the throne of Yahweh. (Exodus 17:15)
- That this would be a house of healing
- In our Stewardship of Worship
- In our Teaching, Training and Equipping
