It's a new season at TM and we are believing God for even "greater things" (John 14:12) as HE transforms us individually as we gather together. Our hope is, as we are transformed, we would be a people that live and speak the same message within our culture, a message of hope, of justice, of miracles and of love.  A message that will change darkness of a man’s hearts and that will overcome a culture driven by selfish ambition and fear.

As I have been reflecting on this new season I believe God spoke a clear word to my heart "I am digging up old wells and starting new one's". You might ask, "what does that even mean?" Let me explain.

Isaiah 12:3 says:

“With joy you will draw water 
  from the wells of salvation.”

John 4:13-14 says:

Jesus said, "Everyone who drinks this water will get thirsty again and again. Anyone who drinks the water I give will never thirst—not ever. The water I give will be an artesian spring within, gushing fountains of endless life."

Tehillah has a rich heritage of experiencing the presence and power of God. These experiences were not contained within the four walls of the church. It captivated the hearts of the broken, the lost, and those who believed there was more to God than just attending service. Thousands have heard and experienced the gospel message and responded with passion and zeal. I have met many people in my travels who have said their experience at Tehillah Monday set them on a journey with God that radically transformed their lives. I believe that is the Holy Spirit “dna” of Tehillah.

Tehillah has established wells that refreshed the church, the broken and the lost. Not just in Calgary but all over the earth. God is saying to us “I am not done…” He wants us to continue digging new wells that will bring times of refreshing, of salvation, of healing, of worship, of justice. He is calling us to dig wells that bring forth water to a generation who is thirsting for something more, something real, something tangible.

God wants to establish more wells through the expansion of Tehillah, in the expression of new communities and gatherings that will break new ground in new locations as the Holy Spirit leads. We are currently focused on the community of Canmore. We hope to launch a new life giving gathering that will serve the community of Canmore in the spring/summer 2010.

We can dig new wells of justice. One of our missions in this new season at TM is to bring awareness to plight of those children who are exploited all over the world. However, bringing awareness isn’t enough. We want to respond with tenacity, wisdom and concern. So in the coming months you will see and hear more about this!

We encourage you to be intentional about digging new wells at your school, in the marketplace, your churches and remember everywhere you step is Holy ground as the spirit of God is within you! Let it out!!!

We are excited and anticipating so much in this new season. It’s all about Him, for Him and because of Him. “In him we live, move and have our being” Acts 17:28

Blessings,

Pastor Keith
