Today starts the release for next year’s School Of Prophets as we return to our local churches and continue this process of maturing.

We’re seated on the throne with Christ and our heel is on the head of the serpent. God’s dealings refine us. Satan’s dealings with us assault our faith but give us opportunity to crush him.

THE SHEPHERD’S COMPASSION AND COMMISSION
October 20, 1979 Saturday Aft. Shiloh
Why can a grievance turn a heart away from a living word and a commission from the Lord?

October 19, 1978 Thursday P.M. Ana.
There are many problems to our oneness because every relationship in the Kingdom differs. These differences pose a problem to perfect unity and the performance of the perfect will of God. We must be dedicated and submissive in order to perfectly relate to one another. Only a supreme dedication can surmount the perils in a relationship that is unequal. The answer, of course, is a love that is great enough that it is dedicated. (60 min.)

THE HUMBLED ARE HONORED
May 27, 1978 Saturday A.M. Shiloh
The factors of greatness in the Kingdom of God are outlined in this definitive teaching on discipleship. A disciple is one with the Lord and dedicated to bring others into that oneness with the Lord.

A disciple is not greater than his Lord but he believes to do greater works than He did and he believes that those who are taught by Him will also do greater works in turn than He has. If he is humble, he is honored with a double portion. (35 min.)

How else can God test His servants than to test their faithfulness? As each of us are pressed beyond our capacities and limitations, we must draw on His provision, on His word over us.
