It is to speak something from the heart. To cry out from the depths. To drop a plumbline that is straight and true. To speak simply and clearly about things... things that are the most important in these last days for the church.

What do we mean specifically?

Firstly, we believe the Lord wants people to get to know Him. To really KNOW HIM - and to be FULL OF HIM! Not traditions - or rules - or patterned religious behaviour. He wants a people who will get into relationship with Him and learn to walk with Him day by day. How the world destroys itself today in need of those who truly know the Lord and "in whom is the Spirit of God". Secondly we believe the Lord wants the church to belong to Him ... to be under His rule ... to be a body in which HE IS MANIFESTED! Through each part doing its share. Not just a building to gather in. Not a centre for religious organisation and activity! He wants something to live in - to live amongst. To be glorified through! "CHRIST IN YOU, THE HOPE OF GLORY! He wants the church to be a living organism - not a man - made organisation.

That is what this magazine is about. This is where our hearts lie. We trust it is where your hearts lie as well. God is searching for a people who want to love Him with all their hearts - and who want Him, and only Him to be glorified in the church.

So here it is! We hope to offer you in this publication some thought provoking, spirit strengthening articles. The kind of things that you won't just be able to suck up with a straw - but will need to chew over ... and talk to the Lord about. After all, that is the best way to get to hear from Him - and that is what's important after all!!! To HEAR the speaking of the Lord into your life and to act upon it.

Apart from having articles, we also would like to give some space for feedback - where you can write in if you wish. More on that later. We hope to also offer an anointed book ministry. It includes some of our own material and other writers as well.

Finally, I would like to say that this magazine represents no specific church group, no denomination, sect or movement. Neither do we consider ourselves to have any monopoly on the truth. It is simply a voice from the wilderness crying out the Way of the Lord. We trust that you may learn to hear Him and begin to follow only Him!
