Central Otago Baptist Network

Central Otago Baptist Network A Radical Dream for Central Otago. We are a fluid network of micro-churches focused on "Disciples-making-Disciples".

Not tied to buildings, we meet in small groups across our region to pray, grow, and reach our communities.

🙌 24 HOURS OF PRAYER — Join the Movement! 🙌

We are uniting as a community to "drench" our town in prayer from 6pm Sat, April 18 to 6pm Sun, April 19.

🔗 CLICK HERE TO PICK YOUR HOUR:
https://pray.24-7prayer.com/signup/ccd55e

🎯 Our Goal: We want to make sure every single hour is covered! Please check the link and try to fill an empty slot first so the chain remains unbroken for the full 24 hours.

You don’t have to book online if you are going to be present and can show up anytime for prayer during this time.

✨ If you can only pray at a specific time that is already taken, please sign up anyway! Multiple people can pray in the same slot, and the more voices the better.

Where we’ll be:
📍 Sat 6pm – Sun 6am: New Life Church (50 Reece Crescent)
📍 Sun 6am – Sun 6pm: Wānaka Community Hub (34 McDougall St)

Let’s fill the wall and see what God does! 🙏✨

The Table Check - Revelation 19 shows us two very different destinies: a CELEBRATION and a RECONING. It’s easy to get distracted by this world, but the Bride of Christ is called to be ready and prepared. Are you living like someone who actually expects a wedding?
Perform a "Table Check" today. Identify one area of your life where you have been "hiding" from the Lion’s justice instead of running to the Lamb’s grace. Turn that area over to Him in prayer right now.

The LION is coming, but the LAMB is still calling. 🦁🐑

The First Time: He arrived on a borrowed donkey as a Lamb to die for our sins.
The Next Time: He arrives on a white horse as a Lion to execute justice.
We all want justice for the world, but are we ready for the Judge?
There are two tables mentioned in Revelation 19: The Marriage Supper and the Great Supper of Judgment. One is a celebration; the other is a reckoning.

Which invitation are you holding?
Don't just celebrate your rescue—become a rescuer. Who are you inviting to the table this week

In the list of Babylon’s cargo (Rev 18:13), "human souls" are listed right next to gold and silk. The world often treats people as a means to an end, but God sees every soul as an eternal treasure. This weekend, we have the chance to flip the script.



Reach out to that one person in your life who seems to have "the look" of success but has mentioned feeling empty or stressed lately. Don't try to fix them—just offer a "non-anxious presence." Send a text or grab a coffee and share how the peace of the Lamb is helping you stand firm even when the world feels shaky.

Revelation 18:7 warns us about the quiet whisper in our hearts that says, "I sit as a queen... I will never see grief."
It’s easy to let the "lifestyle" of our world become our security. But the Bible reminds us that true security isn't found in what we own, but in whose we are.

- Identify one "Babylonian Habit" today -
Is it mindless scrolling for things you don’t need?
Is it checking your accounts more than your Bible?
Replace that habit for the next 24 hours with a "Lamb-Centred Action."
Spend that time in prayer for a neighbour or simplify your evening to focus on gratitude.

🏔️You don't need a mountain hut to find holiness ⛰️

We often think "coming out of the world" means escaping it—moving to a remote spot in the Rees Valley or shutting ourselves away from the chaos.
On Sunday we was that Revelation 18 tells a different story.
"Coming out" isn't about geography; it’s about heart-orientation.
It means:
• Valuing souls over systems: Seeing people as eternal, not as tools for profit.

• Choosing peace over panic: Staying grounded when the world’s "single hour" of shaking happens.

• Being "weird" for the right reasons: Prioritizing obedience to Jesus over fitting into the local noise.

You are called to be a light right where your feet are planted today— whether that’s in a Wānaka office, a Cromwell orchard, or on a Queenstown job site.

Are you ready to trade the "intoxication" of the world for the peace of the Lamb?
