Gold Street Garden Church

Special Guests Michael & Anna Dow of  @Burning Ones  came and ignited the place with a fresh vision of the beauty of Jesus!  What a night of receiving the Word of the Lord. Conviction hit the room deeply as the altar was filled with hearts repenting & longing for the fullness of the Gospel's invitation.    Acts 13, lays out God's desired model for the church. The Church is a FAMILY not a franchise. As we as a body minister to the Lord He gives us instructions & empowerment to minister to others. God is stripping the Church of individualistic desires to develop a people not an individual.    God will perfect the Church which is the Bride of Christ, not because we deserve it, but because Christ deserves the best Bride. He deserves a perfected 'us' and He will get what He asked the Father for in John 17.    "No man is greater than God's value system." -Michael Dow   For more information on Michael Dow & Burning Ones visit; burningones.org    For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Examine Yourselves (Judas, Peter & John) // Dominick Butler "Examine yourselves to see if your faith is genuine. Test yourselves. Surely you know that Jesus Christ is among you; if not, you have failed the test of genuine faith." 2 Cor 13:5   The enemy wants us so fixated on everything going on around us that we don't invest anything attention to what's going on within us. Taking daily heart inventory, examining ourselves with the light of God's word and fellowship of prayer in the Spirit should be the bi-product of the fear of the Lord in our lives.    Two things that blind us from examining ourselves are impatience & pride. Impatience is the breeding ground for idols. Pride is the origin of the demonic realm. Lucifer became Satan through pride.    We went through three biblical character examinations to see their failures and victories regarding their walks with the Lord. We looked at Judas, Peter, and John.      For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Walk Worthy // Dominick Butler   Eph 4:1;  "I, therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you to WALK WORTHY of the calling with which you were called"   We can't walk worthy until we are willing to fall daily before Him in adoration. The revelation of His worth graces us with the ability to walk worthy. Pursuing His worth will expose all the worthless pursuits we fall victim to in life. As His worth exposes the vanity we have entertained, we then surrender it to gain greater capacity to host Him with our affection.   1) Pursue His Worth 2) Expose the Fake 3) Advance the Real   Last night we were graced with the ability to respond to Rev 4's invitation, "COME UP HERE!" As we responded we joined into the throne room anthems; "BLESSING & HONOR & GLORY & POWER BE UNTO THE LAMB WHO SITS ON THE THRONE!" "HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, LORD GOD ALMIGHTY!"  --Where His worth is known worship is the uncontested response.   For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Oh to be reminded of the Holy cost of the Gospel.  Last night Evangelist Joe Turnbull came to share of all God did overseas during a recent Congo crusade and all God is stirring in America.  The fire of God baptized every heart laid at the altar🔥   There is an undeniable unity conviction burning in the Church, God is tearing down the walls of separation and discord to see cities transformed by the Gospel of Jesus Christ!!!    Let us answer this glorious invitation asking for wisdom from Heaven and boldness to preach the word of God by the Spirit of God.    “For we do not preach ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord, and ourselves your bondservants for Jesus’ sake. For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” ‭‭II Corinthians‬ ‭4:5-6‬ ‭NKJV‬‬"   For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Choose Him // Dominick Butler   There is something special that takes place when we corporately decide to touch His heart together. Last night was a whirlwind. The Altar was not full of individuals pursuing personal breakthrough, it was a group of people that decided we are all after One Glorious Man, and His Name is Jesus.   We continued magnifying the “Fear of the Lord” in scripture through the vein of the significance of ‘choice.’ The Message was entitled, “Choose Him.” Everyday We most daily renew our affections and attentions unto Him. As we continually choose Him, we posture our hearts to make decisions that honor Him and ultimately lead us to the apex of our potential in this life.    “When they cry for help, I will not answer. Though they anxiously search for me, they will not find me. For they hated knowledge and CHOSE NOT TO FEAR THE LORD.” Proverbs 1 : 28-29 NLT   For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Fear of the Lord // Dominick Butler  Isa 33:6; "...The fear of the Lord is His treasure."   The fear of the Lord becoming a forgotten message in the Body of Christ. But if we only realized how rich the revelation of the fear of the Lord was, we would pursue maturing in it with everything. The fear of the Lord is our response to the revelation of God.    This night was monumental for our body. The altar was full of repentant hearts. There was a tear gland revival that sprung forth. Hearts crying out to be immersed in the revelation of the fear of the Lord.    3 Questions we asked and answered with the Word 1) What is the fear of the Lord?  2) Why is the fear of the Lord important? 3) How do I cultivate the fear of the Lord in my life?   When the Lord is looking for the fear of God in your life, He's looking for a heart that beats unquestioned obedience.    For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

​ @Demetria Stallings   // Baptized into Dependency Special Guest Demetria Stallings came and led us to the baptism waters of His love to be completely immersed. The waves of His glory shifted the room deeply during worship as genuine affections arose from desperate hearts.    Precious intricate prophetic words were breathed upon yielded hearts. Prov 15 : 23; "...And a word spoken in due season, how good it is!"    The message of dependency upon the Lord was branded on our hearts by fire. Receiving the intimate revelation on the relationship God desires to have with us according to His Word.    "As we grow in dependency we learn to turn any situation in life into a sanctuary to worship Him in."   For more information on Demetria's ministry visit; https://www.demetriastallings.com/  For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

The life of Jesus stirred His disciples to desire prayer. If Christ lives in us, shouldn't our lives be provoking those around us to desire prayer? Luke 11; shows us the disciples asking Jesus how to pray. They knew the formalities of prayer via the pharisees, readings from the Torah & Psalter etc. But never was prayer this clearly portrayed as the source of life.    Prayer is where we enter the heart of God so He can shoot us out like a cannon into the harvest fields, set ablaze with His affections & desires. 1 Cor 15:10; Paul shares that, "he labored for the Gospel more abundantly than all his peers." What caused this supernatural labor of service unto the Gospel?  Phil 3:10;  "that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and the fellowship of His sufferings, being conformed to His death"    Supernatural labor to endure & press on is birthed from the supreme desire to know Him. Our pursuit of Him is where our purpose is uncovered.    For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Foundation, Faith & Fire // Pastor Dominick Butler  If you don't love to pray, you don't know Him. Knowing Him creates a deep longing for prayer.  Jer 33:3; "Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know." God desires to answer us, and on top of that He desires to show us great and mighty things which we do not know.    Last night we established three imperative pillars for growth in prayer.  1) Foundation- For no one can lay any foundation other than the one we already have—Jesus Christ. (1 Cor 3 : 11)  2) Faith- that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love (Eph 3 : 17)  3) Fire - For our God is a consuming fire. (Heb 12 : 29)   Christ is the Word of God. He is the foundation of all conversation of prayer. When faith lays hold of that, you pursue Him by faith. As you pursue Him, the fire of God will refine & purify your motives and desires.  He is jealous for you and wants to deliver you from the love of the world. Real prayer destroys worldly  cravings and replaces them with Heaven's desires.   For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden

Experiencing Christ // Pastor Dominick Butler   To see the Altar full of hungry lovers of Jesus is a sight that stirs all of Heaven and strikes horror in the Kingdom of Darkness. Last night the Altar was full of hearts longing to break their alabaster jars over the feet of Jesus.    There is no distance between you and God that Christ has not filled. Experiencing Christ is the reward and adventure of the Gospel. When the deep reality of the Person of Christ is impressed upon our hearts by the Spirit of God, your appetite for the things of this world is ruined.    “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,” ‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭1:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬   For More info on Gold Street Garden visit; https://linktr.ee/goldstreetgarden
