WOW! Conference: Bali– From Silence to Symphony

WOW! Conference Bali, Indonesia, was convened in May 2026 and hosted by Pastor Alexandra Ivanova of Cornerstone Apostolic Community Church. The central theme of the conference was “The Healing Covenant: From Silence to Symphony”, bringing together more than 200 women gathered from 13 cities.

Pastor Nova carries a deep burden to see women across Bali encounter God’s healing presence and discover a place of refuge in Him. Her desire is for women to bring their hurts, disappointments, and past wounds before the Lord, surrendering every broken area of their lives and allowing Him to bring healing, restoration, and wholeness through Christ.

New Sound Rising

Pastor Daphne Yang opened the conference with the message “New Sound Rising,” calling women to deeper faith, wholehearted obedience, and spiritual maturity. Choosing not to remain passive in the difficult seasons of life, but to respond with active trust and faithfulness in God.

“He has put a new song in my mouth – praise to our God; many will see it and

fear, and will trust in the Lord.” — Psalm 40:3

The journey of Israel through the wilderness was used to illustrate the tension between complaint and singing. Complaint reflects limitation and unbelief, while singing becomes a posture of faith that opens the way for breakthrough and trust in God. The

message emphasised that spiritual maturity is demonstrated through obedient response to God’s specific instructions in every season – hearts that consistently yield and say, “Yes, Lord.”

Pastor Daphne declared that God is birthing a new song in the Church, releasing aPastor Daphne closed with a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness in every season of crisis and uncertainty. From Jeremiah 29:11, she affirmed that God is calling, strengthening, and sustaining His people. Anchoring them in hope and a future as He rebuilds lives, restores families, and re-establishes foundations in every

broken place.

“I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the hopper, the destroyer, and the cutter, my great army, which I sent among you.” — Joel 2:25

She also declared that God would restore what has been lost, redeeming wasted years, depleted strength, and broken places. When hope is revived, hearts are strengthened to trust in God’s promises beyond what they see. What was once broken becomes a testimony of His faithfulness, and restoration is made visible as a witness to the nations!

The conference ended in resounding shouts of praise and heartfelt worship, as voices rose together in songs declaring the goodness, faithfulness, and power of God. A tangible sense of expectancy filled the atmosphere, as the people united and pressed in together with faith and anticipation, declaring that God is moving mightily across the nations and that greater things are still ahead, yet to be revealed in His perfect timing.

prophetic invitation to “sing to the well,” where faith-filled worship aligns believers

with His Word and releases spiritual breakthrough.

Breakthrough Through Worship

The teaching moved into activation. Drawing from Paul and Silas’ experience in prison, their worship released a supernatural shift, shaking the prison and opening every door. Praise carries spiritual authority to break bondage and shift atmospheres. What looked like restriction became the stage for breakthrough, reminding the women that their singing is an act of faith that releases freedom both personally and into their environments.

Hannah’s Anointing

Pastor Nova then turned our attention to the life of Hannah, presenting her story as a prophetic picture of endurance through pain. Hannah’s barrenness carried deep personal grief and cultural shame. Yet instead of turning inward in bitterness, she turned upward in surrender. She poured out her heart before the Lord and made a vow of consecration, entrusting her deepest longing to God.

Drawing from Zechariah 2: “Sing and rejoice, O daughter of Zion, for behold, I am coming, and I will dwell in your midst.” Pastor Daphne emphasised that the Church is called to respond to God’s presence with praise, and to recognise this as a season of awakening, revival, and global restoration.

God is not distant but actively calling His people into a faith-filled response in the present moment – “now is the time.” God is enlarging hearts, increasing capacity, and calling His people to step beyond limitation into greater obedience and faith. Men and women responded, flooding the front in surrender and faith. Many encountered a tangible move of God marked by tears, worship, and renewed consecration.

Anchored in Unshakable Truth

The next morning, Pastor Daphne exhorted the female leaders to stand firm in truth amid a world of shaking and confusion. Drawing from Haggai, she reminded the leaders that “everything that can be shaken will be shaken, but what cannot be shaken will remain” (Haggai 2:6-7).

In times of crisis, confidence must not be placed in circumstances, but in God alone. Leadership is both front-facing and behind-the-scenes, but above all, it must be rooted in truth that convicts. The sermon concluded with a call to hear God’s voice afresh: the Holy Spirit leads into all truth (John 16:13), and believers must have ears to hear and hearts to obey.

The Power of Restored Hope

Pastor Daphne closed with a powerful reminder of God’s faithfulness in every season of crisis and uncertainty. From Jeremiah 29:11, she affirmed that God is calling, strengthening, and sustaining His people. Anchoring them in hope and a future as He rebuilds lives, restores families, and re-establishes foundations in every

broken place.
