<fontfamily><param>Arial</param>Dear Tuesday night "followers":</fontfamily>
This morning went well. It is clear that God is getting ready to do
something different. Tina and I got there a little after 8 and as we
prayed the Lord began to shape things. Others came in after 9 and more
prayer came forth. Worship was different and that is all I can say.
And things are in a state of flux. Flux is a result of heating up when
it describes a state. or condition.
Last weekend Tina and I received a few words and God not only
confirmed them He brought it in above and beyond all that we can
think. Then I went to an apostolic summit and received many words.
Again I sowed into the words. On Friday & Saturday we sowed more at a
meeting called Upward Call. (Awesome meeting! God bless Darryl &
Martha!) We came home to such an increase words can not describe it. I
feel like we stepped into the center of the stream of His blessings.
Above and beyond what we can comprehend. It is clear that as we
fulfill the roles God has spoken to us through prophets and apostles
we will be blessed. God wants to bring an increase to His people.
One of the last words I received on Wednesday from Phil Zaldatte said
this. "I have seen you in a fishbowl and the Lord has brought His
hammer to smash it, that you are no longer contained. The last season
is over and a new one is upon you. You will see a restoration of old
relationships and you will bring reconciliation to the region. God has
given you a business anointing and many will sow into ventures He is
giving you." This is very similar to a word Micheal Pipes gave me
years ago, and certainly similar to the ones I get.
I think that the Lord is doing this right now in Springfield. He is
building a people of prayer and worship. The reason we are downtown
meeting in a bank is to bring light to His community. We received good
words last weekend about this. By building deeper relationships. After
the words I received on Wednesday, I know that I am not to even try to
touch the "pastoral" of this work nor is Tina. There are 3 men and 1
women I believe could begin to fulfill this. And by January I expect
at least one of them will be in place. This is important for people to
know. We are a ministry that is built on the foundations of the
apostolic and prophetic (Ephesians 2:20) not pastoral.
Apostles will be those that build according to the plans brought forth
through the Lord and his prophets.
Prophets will bring about blueprints and work in conjunction with the
apostles.
Pastoral gifts will disciple, instruct in accordance with the
foundation set in place by the gifts of apostles and prophets. They
will be the "shepherds" of the people.
Evangelists will bring the people into the body, after seeing their
lives converted.
Teachers will bring the wisdom and teachings of God to the body of
believers.
We are going to percolate this work by prayer and worship. The next
few months will be solidifying things. By January I expect us to be in
place for reaching out at a greater extent. The Lord showed me 100
people. Hmmm. The word will be brought into the house. I think we are
looking at clear teaching gifts being used in this capacity.
Tuesday nights. Tuesday nights will be taking a shift. We will be
meeting this Tuesday (Adults only) to fellowship, to discuss the
meetings on Sunday, to impart training and to receive from the gifts
of teacher, apostle and prophet.
I need to say this. Many of you are believers of many years and you
may have been around the mountain(We were not excluded from this
process.) Tuesdays are going to begin to shape themselves around the
training center thought process. Some of the thoughts are we are not
going around the mountain again and want you to have a similar thought
process. Those that are trained will be leading small groups, the
Sunday body and traveling with us. I have already begun the process of
embracing the words given on Wednesday and have repented from the
words I left on the shelf. You will be told more about this process on
Tuesday. These people will be part of what our overall vision is
doing. Where we see it going as it is refined by the lord and counsel.
Our job is to equip people for the work of the Kingdom. God's job is
to build His church upon the revelation of Jesus Christ. We will do
ours and believe he will do His. I am going to begin to limit my time
of instruction and guidance to those who are working with us. That
group will not be all that large. Perhaps no more than dozen.
I have been told I will be "busy, busy, busy" with regional meetings.
It is the people. who are trained, that will go with us. This will
include five-fold, prayer people, gifts of hospitality and helps and
music. The training will not only strengthen the local church but it
will prepare people to travel with us. We believe the breaking of the
fishbowl word. Springfield desperately needs a body of believers who
will do the stuff. Many of you have a heart for the body of believers
here in Springfield. Tim T. told us to prepare for the exodus.
Relationships are not forged but begun on Sunday. Your relationships
are forged in your developing time with one another. We pray for this
to come to pass.
One little prayer request. Please pray for Tina with regard to her job
as the Lord touches your heart.
