Episode Synopsis

The last few weeks we have been talking about a time of consecration.
Elim’s new General Superintendent, Mark Pugh, has asked everyone across Elim’s network to spend 21 days in a time of consecration. I asked everyone to have a time of personal consecration and last week, we looked at consecrating our church. Today we are looking at the consecration of the Elim Movement. 
Elim believes that the Holy Spirit is still being poured out on people all around the world, not just at Pentecost. 
It is a continuing story of changed lives and communities, being written by thousands of people who believe in the empowering presence of the Holy Spirit.
Elim represents a global network of about 650 churches in the UK and Ireland, and over 4000 Elim or Elim affiliated churches overseas, with a weekly attendance of about 50,000 in the UK and more than 300,000 overseas, operating in some 50 countries worldwide.
We honour the past. We are thankful for all that God has done. We also need to look to the present and future. What is God saying today? What will the future hold? There are those who’ve gone before us cheering us on. As the time of the end is getting closer, what should His Church be doing? As we finish off the time of consecration, ask God what He wants you to do. How will you fulfil the Great Commission? Believe with me that once again the churches will be full of people coming to faith in God. May we have faith to see Scotland come back to God. Scotland is known historically as the Land of the Book.
