Harp, Bowl & Crown Report Metro-Atlanta
By Jacquie Tyre
There
is a fresh wind blowing across the land - a wind that is blowing away
the dross of the last season, bringing a refreshing to the weary,
releasing renewed strength, and lifting us higher into His presence.
It is a time to allow the presence of the Lord to do whatever it is
that you need -- let go and soar with Him! Be careful to not resist His
wind, even when it seems different that it has in days gone by --
It
is a new day and we must let go of our past notions and move with the
Holy Spirit in every area of our lives. The Spirit of the Lord is
wooing us into deeper places of worship & communion, and at times
it is going to be challenging to stay the course, but I urge you --
don't back up. The very thing you are searching for, yearning for, and
needing will be found and released as you press in to His presence at a
new depth. Deep calls unto deep....Psalm 42:7
RALLY THE TROOPS, HARP BOWL & CROWN GATHERING REPORT
This
past Thursday night's Harp, Bowl & Crown Gathering at New Covenant
Community was outstanding. The house was full....of the presence of the
Lord, and the people of God. And joy filled the house! 1 Chronicles
12:23-40 was a running theme through the evening of all the tribes
coming together as one-people with a loyal heart as the Family of God
that could then move out as the Army of God to advance Christ's
Kingdom. We began with food & fellowship, and moved into a powerful
evening of praise, worship, exhortations, proclamations, and decrees.
The time of fellowship was so refreshing and encouraging as everyone mingled and enjoyed meeting and getting to know the Family of God from all over metro-Atlanta. It was abundantly clear that the Lord had called for this time of feasting and celebrating.
As the worship began to fill the room, anticipation, excitement, and a pure & holy hunger for the Lord seemed to explode. The message of the evening was the Lord calling us to be the Family of God so that when we went out to battle as the Army of God we would guard and protect each other -- and our city would no longer be known as a place where "friendly fire" takes out many. The call to ONENESS & UNION to bring all our diversity of gifts, callings, experience, and life together as ONE PEOPLE with a LOYAL HEART, EXPERT IN WAR, KNOWING HOW TO MOVE IN BATTLE FORMATION, AND SERVING TOGETHER TO ADVANCE CHRIST KINGDOM. (see 1 Chronicles 12:23-40)
An emphasis was brought forth on the significance of the date of our gathering, on the Hebrew Calendar -- the First of Elul, relating to Haggai 1 and clearly hearing the Lord say -- IT IS TIME for the HOUSE OF THE LORD TO BE BUILT. We must consider our ways and turn our attention and devotion to what is the heart of the Lord - to see His House Built and His Kingdom Established -- and to move forward in ONENESS of the Spirit with each other.
As the worship started up again, the Holy Spirit drew us into a deep place of His presence to SHINE as HIS LIGHTS in the midst of darkness that many would see and come to know Christ, and it was declared prophetically that we have indeed entered into a NEW SEASON -- it is a NEW DAY! Hallelujah.
At one point in the evening Holy Spirit began talking with me about how those who were gathered had been scattered, wounded, and hidden in the "cave of Adullum", and that now was the time for a commissioning - or in many cases, a recommissioning - into active duty in the Army of God. In a prophetic act of obedience to what the Lord was speaking we called for everyone to receive their commissioning from the Lord by walking under the canopy of the Sword & Staff that had been presented to me as the state apostolic coordinator for the GAPN & the US Alliance for Reformation. Many were visibly touched by the Lord as we embraced our commission together - for His purposes. By faith, we extend that commissioning to all of you who say, "Yes, Lord! I answer Your call to be active in the Family of God to serve as members of Army of God in this season...to advance Your Kingdom."

In trying times it is important that we align - or realign - our words (both spoken and written), our thoughts, and our beliefs to line up with the Word of God. When things gets tough we must guard our hearts from agreeing with anything that is contrary to what God has spoken in His Word and prophetically. This article provides some solid Biblical truths to help us align with God during trying times.
The Lord is rekindling an awakening of the Spirit of Intercession in the Body through the telling of the old, old stories of His displaying the love, mercy, grace and power of Christ throughout the ages. We have entered into a season to "recover" all that has been lost, stolen, or left behind in our families, communities and nations. It is time for a fresh fire to burn within the people of God today with a passionate desperation for the promises of the Lord to come forth in power. Read, rehearse, pray, and share the stories of old believing that our God will yet do it again in our day.
The Lord began to speak about His weaving of a tapestry in these days that will reveal the Glory of the Lord as we come together from various streams in humility to seek His face and do His will. The tapestry He is weaving is glorious. . .
