We started this series with two questions

  • Why should we take spiritual ground for God’s Kingdom?  Because we love Jesus

Pastor’s Thoughts:
  • As we end this series on ‘taking spiritual ground’, I want to take a moment to emphasize a few points that God has laid on my heart to remind me about our destiny as a church.
    • It was prophesied around 30 years ago, the HCC would be a lighthouse in the community.  It’s coming.  Get ready to shine.  Get ready to take spiritual ground.
    • God has made it very clear through prayer and confirmations that this church will impact lives outside these 4 walls.
    • And last but not least, As we love and serve people outside these 4 walls, then God’s supernatural presence within the 4 walls will explode.
  • I truly, with all my heart believe in these 3 concepts.  Get ready.  The launch pad is set.  We are go for launch to take spiritual ground for God’s Kingdom.
  • It won’t be easy but never forget these two scriptures.  
    • Philippians 4:13.  I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me
    • Isaiah 54:17.  No weapon form against me shall prosper.  
  • So whenever we hit a road block as we work for God’s Kingdom, push through because in Christ Victory is assured.
