Raise the Cross Haasts Bluff, NT-  An Indigenous Call

Help Raise the Cross in the centre of Australia as recognition that Jesus died for all our sins and has been raised to life – and is life to all who believe. John 12:32 “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself.”
Indigenous elders separately received visions of a huge cross in the heart of Australia.

Ken Duncan, photographer, and many others have come alongside to help them implement this vision.  They have walked through opposition, but are on track to erect an enormous cross on Memory Mountain to the glory of God outside of Haasts Bluff, NT. Ongoing Prayer and Support: Pray for this project and support this financially.

Details: Month of Prayer & Fasting for Marriage & Family

 Register here to receive the daily prayer guide during October. 

Support was given for a call by the Australian Catholic Church for a month of ‘Prayer and Fasting for Marriage and Families’ through the month of October 2017. This was affirmed by a gathering of Christian leaders from all over Australia on 15 August 2017.

James Condon, a Commissioner with the Salvation Army and the head of Strategic Church Relations for the National Day of Prayer & Fasting said, “Support for this historic initiative by the Catholic Church is gathering momentum. Denominational leaders we are talking to are very excited about this wonderful proposal. The team at the National Day of Prayer & Fasting call for denominational leaders, prayer leaders, church networks, individual Christian churches and Christian organisations across the nation to get behind this important call for prayer.”

Condon continued, “Key Aboriginal Christian leaders are also supporting this call for prayer and fasting to protect marriage from redefinition. In fact, three Indigenous leaders will feature in the digital devotions that will be released on a daily basis. 

Marriage between a man and a woman is sacred in Indigenous culture. For more information regarding Indigenous perspective on the sacredness of marriage go to: www.ulurubarkpetition.com

Ps Peter Walker, an Indigenous leader from the Uluru Bark Petition said, “I congratulate the Catholic Church, together with all these many leaders, for showing leadership and taking the initiative to launch a call for a month of Prayer and Fasting for Marriage and Families. In our culture, which has continued for thousands of years, marriage and family are paramount. Marriage is between one man and one woman. The Bible is also clear on this important issue. Jesus said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his mother and father and the two shall become one flesh’. It is wonderful that the Catholic Church is calling us back to the words of Jesus.”

Warwick Marsh, spokesman for the Canberra Declaration and a coordinator of the National Day of Prayer & Fasting said, “For this period of prayer and fasting we ask that you only fast as you are able. Some might choose a vegetarian ‘Daniel Fast’, others might choose to miss a meal a day, or fast certain days of the week. Whether you choose to do a full fast or a partial fast, the important thing is to do something. See this YouTube where I share tips for prayer and fasting.  To inspire you in your prayers the team at the Canberra Declaration, in collaboration with Christian leaders from all over Australia, will provide a daily email devotion. The National Day of Prayer & Fasting is also going to help get the word out.”

Marsh continued, “This daily digital inspiration is intended to help Christians understand the joy of the divine plan for marriage and human sexuality. We will celebrate God’s plan, but also mourn our failures to uphold this plan believing honesty is always the best policy. Our hope is that the daily digital devotions will mobilise Christians to pray and act in a God-honouring way in the current debate around the redefinition of marriage in the lead up to the closing of the Postal Plebiscite on 7 November 2017. The daily digital devotions will offer a Scripture, a story, and a prayer each day with an appropriate photo and video link. To encourage people to sign up for the daily devotional we are offering access to free download copies of an e-book by John Piper called “A Hunger for God: Desiring God Through Fasting and Prayer,” plus two other publications “31 Days to a Better Marriage” and “21 Reasons Why Marriage Matters.”  To get the free daily devotional delivered to your inbox throughout the month of October click here.”

David Rowsome, prayer coordinator and co-writer for the Canberra Declaration said, “As believers we must approach these issues with great humility as marriage has been greatly damaged under our watch. The Sexual Revolution of the 1960s was the beginning of the major attacks on marriage. The introduction of no-fault divorce in 1975 and the epidemic of pornography has further tarnished the beauty of the sexual relationship between a man and a woman in holy matrimony. During this period of praying and fasting, we will be asking Christian Leaders from all denominations to write the daily devotions.  They will explore how we have failed to live by God’s plan for marriage, and show through Scripture, the beauty of God’s plan for marriage. We will also ask those leaders to share the pain and damage that this brings to our children and our extended families when we neglect God’s plan for marriage as found in Genesis. Each leader will prepare prayers of thanks, supplication and/or prayers of repentance as they feel led for the daily devotions.” 

Rowsome continued, ‘Collectively we as nation must ask God for forgiveness for our failure and truly repent.  At the same time, we need to pray for God’s grace to be shown to marriages and families in distress. The Good News is that we all gain great hope from the scriptural promise found in 2 Chronicles 7:14, “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

Marriage Declaration prepared by Indigenous Elder Ps Brian Lampton and confirmed by Indigenous leaders from all across Australia on 21 August 2017: For more Information 0409 781 088

We / I declare according to the laws of God’s Word as it is written in Genesis 2:24 about marriage: “That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.”

Marriage is the sacred God ordained union between a man and a woman which expresses the righteous union between Jesus Christ the Bridegroom and His Bride the Church of Jesus Christ.

Marriage as it is written in Ephesians 5:32 “Is a profound mystery—but I am talking about Christ and the church”.

We declare marriage is holy… We declare all these things found in the Holy Scriptures according to the word of God in Jesus Name. Other Scriptures for Reference: Matthew 19:4-6, Mark 11;6-9, Corinthians 6:9-10, Romans 1:26-27, Leviticus 20:13, Genesis 19, Jude 1:7, Timothy 1:8-10, Galatians 3:13, Romans 8:3, John 3:16, Revelation 19:7, Ephesians 5:25-32,

 

United Prayer:

Participate in united prayer, fasting and humbly gracious action to pour out love for all.

Pray that the schemes of the enemy will be revealed and people’s eyes open to the Truth, Way and Life available to all by Jesus – that the earth may be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God.

16-20 October The Gospel Banquet

Mission: We are believing for an awakening to take place in the body of Christ, so that Jesus gets what He paid for in full. The Gospel Banquet is a gathering of leaders from across the Church of Melbourne for a discipleship school intensive on the Gospel of Jesus, feasting on the Word of God and digging deep into revelation of the new creation through the new covenant. Over the five days we will be together hearing messages, eating meals as a family and asking and answering the tough questions as we do life on life together.

Vision: 
To see the leadership of the Church in Melbourne walk in the revelation of the power of the Gospel and in righteousness.
To empower pastors and leaders to bring a fresh awakening of the good news of Jesus to their spheres of influence.
The heart of the Gospel Banquet is for every person to comprehend their design for divine union with Christ, in order to walk in full intimacy with God. We believe that the Bride is to be awakened to her glorious state so she can walk in freedom, power and love, as Jesus has called and enabled her.

We are excited about what God is doing in our own lives and others around the nation and we really desire to unify to see disciples made and cities transformed for His glory. We encourage you to pray and really consider coming along for these five days to be awakened to what Jesus has already paid for.
