IT’S TIME TO DREAM AGAIN

Kris Vallotton
September 13, 2023

Have you found yourself in a season of grief or pain, struggling to have vision for the future? Or maybe you have lost hope that the vision the Lord gave you will come to pass. I know it can feel difficult to hold on to the prophetic words for your life and continue to believe God for the impossible when everything around you speaks a different story. Just a few days ago, in my quiet time with the Lord, God began to speak to me about the coming season for our church fellowship. I shared this message with our church family on Sunday and I pray that it would encourage you.

THE SUPERNATURAL POWER OF VISION

God is closing the door on the past season and He is calling us into a season of vision and abundance! He began to speak to me through the story of Joseph. Joseph interpreted Pharaoh’s dream with his ability to access wisdom from Heaven which allowed him to navigate 7 years of blessing followed by 7 years of famine. Egypt thrived as a nation and was set up for future wealth for generations because they were wise during their years of abundance.


Here are 3 keys to steward the prophetic move of God in this next season:


  1. The Lord is teaching us how to steward our years of abundance. God desires to give us remedies so that we can steward seasons of abundance in a way that we have something to give to the world in the years of darkness.
  2. The Lord is calling us to live future-present. Just as the early church carried on this spiritual legacy of seeing the future and navigating trying times with their resources, God is building prophetic and apostolic centers to demonstrate His wisdom and steward the abundance of His glory, nature and love for a generation we may never see. 
  3. God is raising up imagineers. Michelangelo looked at a boulder and exclaimed, “I saw the angel in the marble and I carved to set it free.” His vision moved him to relentlessly chip away as the rock until he could view on the outside what he imagined on the inside. When we as God’s children envision a dream he placed inside us, as Joseph did when he was a young man, it creates a naturally-supernatural impetus to endure the process and see the vision fulfilled.

YOU CAN’T DO IT BUT HE CAN

As we learn to steward both dark and abundant seasons well, God will bring the kings of the earth to us to disciple and bring blessing. Be encouraged that God will always call you to something you can’t do without Him. He doesn’t promise to provide you with a blueprint or a step-by-step plan but he promises, “I am always with you!” and he is a God who specializes in the impossible.

It's Halftime

By Kris Vallotton • January 3, 2024
Have you ever found yourself in the midst of life's chaos, desperately needing a break, clarity, and a spiritual reset? Picture it like halftime – that pivotal moment when the coach steps in, recalibrates the team, and sparks a turnaround. The game isn't over; this is a chance to come back stronger and claim victory! In recent weeks, a resounding message has been echoing in my heart and mind: January is the Church's halftime! Our divine Coach is calling us to the huddle, to draw close, and let Him fine-tune our game plan – our values, thoughts, and behaviors. Amid the noise, He's inviting us to step away, knowing that leaning into these divine moments will catapult us into the second half, ready for victory. And in this game, we already know the final score – He wins!

Unlocking the Destiny of Gen Z and Gen Alpha

Gen Z, labeled as the seemingly lost generation to Christianity, and Gen Alpha, the digital natives immersed in screens, stand at the crossroads of an era defined by the rapid evolution of technology. As they navigate the evolving landscape of identity, both personal and global, a crucial question reverberates: "Has the Church lost this next generation?"

The Sacred Work of Science

By Kris Vallotton • December 13, 2023
Have you ever grappled with the intersection of an unwavering belief in a supernatural God who releases healing from heaven and the pragmatic world of science and medicine? Perhaps you've found yourself standing at the crossroads, fervently praying for a miracle yet receiving healing through the hands of a compassionate doctor. It's a tension many face—the delicate dance of faith in God's miraculous power juxtaposed with the gift of modern medicine. What if there is no tension at all and there is actually a beautiful integration of faith and science?
