Habakkuk 2:2,3 - ". . . Write the vision and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry."

1. To faithfully preach and teach the Word of God

   II Thess. 3:1 - Finally, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run swiftly and be glorified, just as it is with you

   Hebrews 4:12 - For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

   II Tim. 3:16,17 - All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.
    

2. To minister in the power and demonstration of the Holy Spirit

   I Cor. 2:4,5 - And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

   I Cor. 12:7-11 - But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.
    

3. To cultivate both corporate and individual prayer
   • For any effort to be successful, it must be backed by prayer. Effective praying is the key to success in every area of life.

   James 5:16 (Amp.) - . . . The earnest (heartfelt, continued) prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available (dynamic in its working).

   • Christian Life Church is a church that prays together and for one another.

    Ephesians 1:15-23

    Ephesians 3:14-21

    Ephesians 6:18 - And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.  With this in mind, be alert and always keep praying for the saints.
    

4. To flow in unity

    A. Ephesians 4:3-6

    B. Amos 3:3 - Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

    C. Acts 4:32a - All the believers were one in heart and mind.

   • Unity creates an atmosphere for the anointing to move and to minister to the needs of the people.
      
5. To develop personal growth for everyone

   We believe that God is the God who established marriage and families. So we minister not only to the individual person, but also to the married couples and family unit. We desire to see families grow and prosper the way God designed it to be. You can have heaven on earth in your home.

   We provide special meetings just for husbands and wives that are designed to help strengthen marriages and the family unit.

    

6. To reach out not only to our community but also to the world

    Matt. 28:19-20 - Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.  And surely I am with you always, to the very end  of the age.

    Mark 16:15-20

   • World outreach begins in the home. The Great Commission cannot be accomplished with turmoil in the home, or without knowledge of the Word of God, or without prayer.
   • The entire vision must flow together.
