Our trust is based on our ability to seek God’s face.

No one who waits on the Lord will be put to shame.

The sustaining capacity of our life is not the vitality of youth. The sustaining capacity of our life is our ability to wait on the Lord.

The more in God requires us to ready and prepared for it.

To access the more in God we need to gravitate to the more in our Father.

Champions don’t become champions because they do what everyone else is doing. Champions do something more.

The Holy Spirit is like fragrant oil.

Fragrant oil changes the atmosphere. The brokenness of our lives, causes the fragrant oil to fill the atmosphere.

The Holy Spirit is a present person, that wants to move in His church.

In the New Testament the Holy Spirit comes to live inside of us. We are God’s dwelling place.

- Worship: when we worship together an explosion happens. Worship is presenting ourself holy before God. Worship brings God’s presence into us.

- Sowing and giving freely: every altar in scripture required a sacrifice. Give freely of our time, our talents and our gifts

[Zoe Community Church @ZoeCommunitySA]

How do we build altars that keep the fire of God burning?

- Prayer: God’s devotional order hasn’t changed. Prayer is the 1st stone in our altar. It is where we meet God. A prayer less believer is an altar with no fire.
