Strengthen Your Stakes

A few weeks ago Perry called an all staff meeting where he addressed the direction of NewSpring Church and expressed the vision that God had given him of the future. One of the things he mentioned was that God was about to bring in waves of salvation to NewSpring. In fact, Perry and the NewSpring staff are on board to reach 100,000 people for Christ in the upcoming years. An attainable goal if I say so myself, considering the fact that there will soon be at least seven NewSpring services held every Sunday across three campuses. That pumps me up!
Immediately following the meeting I prayed for the church and for some reason I felt compelled to read Isaiah, specifically chapter 54 (I'm not makin' this up!). In this chapter God speaks about the future glory of Zion. Verse 2 rocked me! After reading this, there's no doubt in my mind that God is doing a work through NewSpring. The timing was perfect (as God's always is)! I'm so thankful to be a part of what God is doing to expand his kingdom!

"Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes.
-Isaiah 54:2
