Bringing in the kingdom Expectation Prayer Announcement Demonstration Mystery

Kingdom Expectation The Prophetic Promise 1. Scripture The New Testament Fulfilment 2. The history of revivals 3. Christian experience

The Kingdom Prayer Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.

Kingdom Prayer Hallowing the divine name The ‘Come Holy Spirit’ prayer The Apostles at Prayer - Acts 4

When they heard this, they raised their voices together in prayer to God. "Sovereign Lord," they said, "you made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and everything in them. You spoke by the Holy Spirit through the mouth of your servant, our father David: (Quote Psalm 2) Indeed Herod and Pontius Pilate met together with the Gentiles and the people of Israel in this city to conspire against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. They did what your power and will had decided beforehand should happen. Now, Lord, consider their threats and enable your servants to speak your word with great boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus." After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.

Kingdom Announcement The keryx in Greco-Roman society The Words of Jesus The Works of Jesus

The Commission – Matthew10:7-8 As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.

How do we announce the kingdom In ministry time, by praying ‘Come Holy Spirit’ or ‘Let your kingdom come.’ Through operating in the healing and prophetic gifts (Power Evangelism; Prophetic Evangelism) Mission, church planting, personal and prophetic evangelism Paul: The message of grace John: The message of the life of the coming ages Engagement in social justice and ministry to the poor (Matthew 11:4-6) By being the eschatological community

The Mystery in Ministry Let God be God Do what the Father is doing Waiting on God The role of the gifts of the Spirit
