Isaiah 54:2-3
“Enlarge the place of your tent,
stretch your tent curtains wide,
do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
strengthen your stakes.
For you will spread out to the right and to the left;
your descendants will dispossess nations
and settle in their desolate cities.”
Hi!
Thanks for taking the time to stand with us as we pray together for our South MCR location. We have seen remarkable things happen recently. Our current venue is at capacity, and we continue to see more people connect into Church. Some of these people have been invited by friends and many just turn up saying things like…..”i just felt i had to go to Church, and i found yours”
We are really excited and honoured to have all these new people, so we need an increase in capacity—not just in the building but also in our team.
So, How can you stand with us? There are some incredible principles in the verse below.
Isaiah 54:2-3
“Enlarge the place of your tent,
stretch your tent curtains wide,
do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
strengthen your stakes.
For you will spread out to the right and to the left;
Pray for a new venue. (Stretch)
We are believing for a venue with double the space, but at half the price. So pray for divine inspiration and favour as we scour the south of Manchester for a new place to call home. We choose to believe that God has spoken and we will see this happen.
Pray for more influence. (Lengthen)
We believe that over the next year, we will build significant and strategic partnerships with the local community. Pray that we meet the right people, make the right connections, and see open doors in the community.
Pray for a determined spirit. (Don’t hold back)
We believe that as we push forward, perseverance and the power of consistently doing the right thing will unlock incredible breakthroughs in the South of Manchester. Pray for our team to be fiercely determined.
Pray for more team. (Strengthen)
This is one of the key areas that we need to see even more growth in. Pray that we have more people step up and lead in unusually generous ways with their time, their gift and their resources.
This verse has a corporate and personal outworking. So, after you have prayed for the South Manchester location, take 5 minutes to pray the same principles over your world—over your friends, family, and work colleagues.
We believe that by standing on this word and applying faith, you will grow, the Church will grow, and God’s Kingdom will be enlarged.
Have a great day…Live with expectation!
Mark
