Let me share with you the heart of Triumphant Life Church's vision to reach our generation. We believe that we are called to prepare a people ready for the Lord's return. Luke 1:17 New Living Translation: "He will be a man with the spirit and power of Elijah. He will prepare the people for the coming of the Lord. He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and He will cause those who are rebellious to accept the wisdom of the godly."
In 2 Corinthians 4:13, Paul, while quoting David in Psalm 116 said, (KJV) "We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I believed, and therefore have I spoken; we also believe, and therfeore speak." We want to catch and hold on to the same spirit of faith that Paul and David had. The spirit of faith is contagious and our desire is for every believer to catch that same spirit of faith that always causes them to triumph in Christ Jesus. We understand there are difficulties in life and we believe mankind's only hope is faith in Jesus.
Brother Kenneth Hagin said, before he went home to be with the Lord, that "There is a move of the Spirit that is going to be lost to this generation unless you teach them. Today, there are others who can teach faith as well as you can. Now I want you to teach about the move of the Holy Spirit. Teach people to flow with the Holy Ghost." Our fervent desire is to flow with the Holy Ghost and see all nine of His gifts in operation and manifestation in our services.
A great man of God, Smith Wigglesworth, who raised over 20 people from the dead, said, "When the Word and the Spirit come together, there will be the biggest movement of the Holy Spirit that the nation, and indeed the world, has ever seen."
Our endeavor is to stay saturated with the Word of God and filled with the Holy Spirit. While we believe the signs of the times point to the soon return of Jesus, the important thing is not to get caught up in the 'when' but to be like the 5 wise virgins and be ever ready.
Finally, we want everything we do to be motivated by a spirit of love and to bring glory to our heavenly Father.
