Oh, Holy Spirit of God, we are asking you tonight that you would manifest yourself here such that none of us can walk out of this room after an encounter with the living God.

The same God who worked in Mary and in David and in Peter and in John is here in the room.

And Lord, we want nothing less than the fullness of all that you have to give.

Oh, come, Holy Spirit, you are wanted here in Jesus' name. Amen.

Man, it's good to start off in the midst of everything that's going on in our world to stop and to listen and to hear from God.

Man, I don't know if you've been around the past couple weeks around the porch.

Some of you, you've been out of town, you came back, you're going, what's going on around here?

I'm just telling you the past few weeks, it's been like God's presence has just washed over us in a powerful way.

In fact, I wasn't planning on sharing this, but I was thinking about it during worship.

So today, May 12th, a year ago, was my first day on staff at the porch.

And yeah, so if I haven't met you, my name's Tyler, I'm so glad to be here, but I remember

my first time at the porch,

and I remember being in this room and singing and incredible, you know, study of the word,

and I remember going home so encouraged, but I remember praying this prayer. I remember praying,

God, it was so obvious that you're moving in power,

but I long for the day that the response time at the end of the night is full.

That's what I wrote.

And because at the time, everything was great.

It's just there's a couple people that would kind of trickle in for prayer

and they'd go to the side and it just wasn't anything that memorable that happened that night

if I'm just being honest and so I've just been praying that like God would you just a sign that

you are moving at the porch instead okay it's cool that we all our hands are raised but that response that people are moving at the porch instead. Okay, it's cool that we all, our hands are raised,
