Communion On The Beach - A New Wave of the Holy Spirit!

For the rest of "the treasure story" click the picture

And so it begins... On Sunday we will become public as we have our first CommunionFire Fellowship on the Beach! We will be "Under the Pier" at Surfside Beach at 10am this Sunday! More times than not I have personally encountered the Lord on the beach. 

Many times it was actually at this particular location where Jesus would come towards me. He shares His life with me in ways that are very simple but become so profound. 

For example: at this location He came to me (while having Communion with Camille early in the morning). As He came towards me on the beach, I saw a big gray box (15 feet tall) to my left - like a storage locker. It interfered with my field of vision. I said Lord, what is this? He said, "Its where I keep my treasure!" Then while drinking the wine, His Blood, the Holy Spirit whispered, "He wants to share His treasure with you!" 

At lunch that same day I was with some pastors in the area and I met the wife of the owner of the restaurant where we were eating. When I asked her name she voluntarily said to me, "My name is Kenza and in my country my name means "treasure". What followed was miraculous. I had been set up by the Lord at 6 a.m. for my encounter with "His treasure". (To see the whole story: read my booklet "Consider The Lilies")

Jesus On the Beach

His parables are simple but so profound.  All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without a parable. This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet: “I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world.” Matthew 13:34-35

"And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat down. And the whole crowd stood on the beach." Matthew 13:2

The Parable of the Net

“Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away. This is how it will be at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 
Matthew 13:47-50

He said to them, “Therefore every teacher of the law who has become a disciple in the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his storeroom new treasures as well as old.”

A Prophet Without Honor

When Jesus had finished these parables, he moved on from there. Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. “Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?” they asked. “Isn't this the carpenter’s son? Isn't his mother’s name Mary, and aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? Aren't all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?” And they took offense at him.

But Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his own town and in his own home.”

And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith.

Matthew 13:52-58

Jesus loves the beach and what started on the beach with the parables and fish breakfast has become a place where the multitudes still gather to encounter Him. 40 years ago I was part of the "Jesus People Movement" - we are excited that "Communion On The Beach" is a new wind of the Holy Spirit and that it will bring the beaches alive with the name of Jesus again!
