[revival-fire] YOUR Community and His Kingdom! - Part 1

******* REVIVAL FIRE!!! *******    



I've been thinking that I should share the following with all of you that are interested.  I've been serving my Lord in Napa, CA regarding moral issues for about 35 yrs.  It started when God gave me a 'big burden' to stand against the new Planned Parenthood sex ed program that was being 'snuck' into our schools.  I did not know where to start but He connected with well trained godly leaders in other communities. My life has never been the same, because I didn't know then that we were in the End Times.  Since then I've been a front liner on many moral issues and worked with numerous churches.  Our evangelical pastors' group had stopped and God led me to give them some booster help to restart.  I organized a free breakfast gathering at a nice restaurant.  I helped them to organize some leadership and presented them also with info about the dire curriculum situation.  


 It gave me favor also in working with them for these many years--including our current elections.  My group is effectively working with about 17 local churches.  We also have Healing Rooms under the headship of Spokane, and a Pregnancy Resource Center and yearly Life Chains and some united gatherings for prayer and worship and teaching--at various churches and at our fairgrounds. Pastors unite for regular prayer and separately so do their wives.   My prayer is that we ALL will continually UNITE more and more with the Body of Christ in our communities for His Glory!  Many of us also freely go to other areas of CA to unite for prayer and teaching.
God also led a particular person in recent years to form the following organization (Napa Arise) and she also just started a dynamic 7 week training for our spiritual community to unite and strengthen us even more in advancing His Kingdom here!  These meetings are  packed and have a wonderful excitement--PTL!  Ask God how he would like to use YOU and do not despise small beginnings!

A name plays a vital role in describing and identifying a person or entity. God changed the name of key leaders throughout the scriptures in order to shift them into His purpose over their life. Think of Abram (lofty father) to Abraham (father of multitudes), Jacob (deceiver) to Israel (prince), or Simon (hearing) to Peter (rock). 

We felt a stirring from God to change the name of Napa Valley Christian Prayer and Care (NVCPC) 
–a practical, functional name (which many had trouble remembering and keeping the initials straight) to NAPA ARISE, a prophetic declaration with God's sound from heaven for this new season.

We've been a non-profit quietly serving the body of Christ and Napa community for the past several years in the areas of unified prayer and care. We believe God is shifting us to "come out of the shadows" and be strategic in our purpose, partnerships and communication. We will continue to unite Christians, to facilitate prayer, and to generously release care to the sick, widowed and orphaned, but with an increased sound of God's heart to bring individuals and groups not only to freedom, but dominion! (God's reigning presence.)

The primary mission of NAPA ARISE is to Call the Generations into their Destiny. What does this mean? We're not exactly sure, but we're going to have a joyous adventure with God to find out and do it. We do know what this adventure involves:

Celebrating and valuing all ages - the generations. God loves the whole family. The same Holy Spirit that lives in the "born again" 40 year old, also lives in the surrendered 4 year old or 94 year old. Each has a powerful purpose in God.

Seeing Creator God's purpose (destiny) for individuals, congregations, the whole church, cities and communities.

Declaring and speaking out these destinies; fervently praying for them to be released and established.

Ministering to and through people to root out hindrances, pull down strongholds, destroy lies, and overthrow patterns that keep people and communities from God-given purpose.

Laying Holy foundations and building up, in love, people and places that will reflect God & bring Him glory.
