GREAT CONGREGATIONS AND HOLY CONVOCATIONS - IN THE MIDST
GREAT CONGREGATIONS
Matthew 18:19-2019 “Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. 20 For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them.”
My experience:
Arise
Hillsong
Kawerau
Parachute
Megamorphic
CONVOCATIONS
- a large formal assembly of people.
- choosing to partake in holy convocations for your vacations will change your WORLD.
As it says in Matthew 18:19-20, gathering with others in Jesus name creates his presence. congregations and convocations about gathering in His name, are about being in the PRESENCE. Or, as we’re focusing on calling it today. IN THE MIDST.
TESTIFY!!!

Life as a Christian is not just about being “vertical”. God doesn’t ask us to come together to ignore those around us. He asks us to come together to JOIN those around us. TO SERVE those around us, SERVING is how we LEAD as Jesus calls us to.
Leading
Our Expression in the midst will influence others.
Mary Magdalene will be remembered everywhere the gospel is preached. - her expression is to be preached because it has influence and impact, and God wants the same thing from US.
