Our Process
Our Regional Communities focus on engaging in meaningful collaborative events that serve the areas we live in by lifting up the name of Jesus.
This is accomplished by using 3 rhythms called LINKS. First, through prayer or PrayerLINK we organize alters of prayer both digitally and in person for our region and North America. Second, worship or WorshipLINK seeks to rebuild the Tabernacle of David that draws the presence of Christ in His peoples worship. And finally Community Service Initiatives ("CSI's") or KingdomLINK where we serve our regional communities through joint effort that is led by the Spirit of the Lord in the various activities.
This digital platform helps unite these communities by facilitating communication as they collaborate together in prayer, worship and community service initiatives in North America.
Our Collaboration Building Blocks
Collaboration Is A Vital Component To Effort
Collaboration is a vital part of accomplishing beneficial results for the community as a whole.
-
Individual group effort is primarily focused on the vision of a particular group, which puts it in competition for the same financial and human resources in a particular area, and
-
It is not designed to carry out effort beyond its focus and therefore is limited in its regional effect unless it partners with others through joint initiatives.
Regional Collaboration
-
Regional effort (“initiatives”) are primarily focused on the coordination of effort in an area for the benefit of the area.
-
Regional work requires large amounts of capital both financial and human.
-
Outside of a crisis the work to get people interested enough to participate is huge.
-
Unity is not accomplished at a meeting. There needs to be “demonstrable projects”, so that all can witness God’s hand.
-
It has to be done for all to see and therefore must be done in the community not just inside the church.
Kingdom Advancement
Scripture tells us that of the increase of His kingdom there will be no end. (Isaiah 9:7). And, that He has commissioned us to work together to that end as he directs. Kingdom assignments/initiatives are the visible outward application of our inward discipleship in a geographic region. The discipleship of "all nations" (Mt 28:19) is not done inside the church, but is our expression of the Kingdom in the places we work, play and raise our families. We seek the "peace of the city" (Jer 29:7)
I3C-NOA Collaboration
Therefore, we seek to follow His leading ("Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place." 2 Cor. 2:14) by coordinating outward effort through ministries, businesses and others who are focused on this kind of collaborative effort. We are not a replacement for your local church.
Our Effort
PrayerLINK
Where we seek to utilize the “watchmen on the walls” referred to in Isaiah 62:6 to see a “culture of prayer” established in I3C-NOA. This “culture of prayer” is accomplished through listening to Him for direction for His Body toward revival, awakening and transformation in a North America.
WorshipLINK
Is a call to those who seek to “rebuild the tabernacle of David.” (Acts 15:15-17) It's purpose is to see the Presence of God established in the lives of His followers and to see a “lifestyle of worship” established in North America.
KingdomLINK
Seeks to display the Spirit that was “upon Jesus” and follow the agenda that He gives regarding the Kingdom that Jesus wishes His followers to bring in daily practice wherever they are positioned. Luke 4:17-18
I3C-NOA Advisory Council
Scripture reminds us that there is "wisdom in a multitude of counselors" (Proverbs 11:14). As a membership collaboration 13C-NOA has assembled seasoned, vetted and committed ministries that are discerning the times and embracing the responsibilities of action that go with that understanding to "take oil for our lamps" in this hour.
