The Local Church: Our Atmosphere For Maturing
July 9, 2006 Sunday 9:30 AM Shiloh, Kalona, IA
The level of intercession, worship, and effectiveness in oneness that we experienced in this year’s School Of Prophets at Shiloh was created by every day that we walked in our relationships in our local churches since last year, testing and trying our faith and oneness. God has given us an atmosphere in our local churches to mature and grow. Today starts the release for next year’s School Of Prophets as we return to our local churches and continue this process of maturing.

The local church is the launching pad for the Kingdom age. The apostolic commissions are the explosive thrusts that launch US into the publishing of the Gospel of the Kingdom to the ends of the earth. These times of change and prophetic commission are the beginning of the fulfilling of the great commission. This word to the Des Moines body brings up the deep wisdom of God in what He’s set before us by revelation. Though it relates to Des Moines, the word relates to every local church. (53 min.)

This is one of the more practical messages on the Kingdom of God inasmuch as it comes in the back door with false, negative comments on fifty basic principles by which Babylon functions.

Again a very foundational but advanced picture of divine order, how we relate to those who are commissioned with authority in the Body. As we are submissive one to another, we have faith in their commission from the Lord and for the Lord to complete and perfect that ministry. In our submission there must be faith in what God has commissioned, trust He will bring it to pass, but most of all we must have a revelation of that commission. (57 min.)

The commission of a Timothy ministry to Coniah and a review of the word of the Lord over them resulted in a breaking down of the bottlenecks in the flow of the local body in Coniah.
