Missions & Beliefs

VISION
I believe the prophetic gift is for everyone (Acts 2:16,17). My vision is to teach God’s people how to operate and anchor their prophetic gift in love (I Cor 13), enabling the saints to develop dynamic satisfying relationships with God, discerning for themselves the voice and will of the Lord, living spirit-led lives with excellence and integrity, and effectively and maturely navigating and remaining delivered from various bondages, including spiritually abusive churches/pastors and self-destructive relationships.

MISSION
My mission is to train, equip and release people into the correct use of the gift, to enable the body to minister prophetically rather than continuously depend on the Prophet to come in and prophesy over everyone, and to bring the office of the Prophet into the church to work in conjunction with the apostolic (5 fold ministry) in a building capacity.*

DOCTRINE OF BELIEFS
The Old Testament and New Testament are the inspired and authoritative word of God - the one God, the creator of all things, who is infinitely perfect and eternal, existing in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Jesus is divine and human. He was conceived of the Holy Spirit and born of the Virgin Mary. He lived a sinless life and died on the cross as a sacrifice for the sins of all man. He rose bodily from the dead, ascended into heaven and is now at the right hand of the Father as our High Priest and advocate (John 20:30).

Man was created in the image of God and lived in relationship with Him until sin caused his fall from grace. Salvation is a gift of God’s grace paid for by the shed blood of His son. We receive this gift by believing in Jesus Christ as our Savior, not through any works of our own but through the power of the resurrection of Jesus and his Holy Spirit, we are restored into covenant relationship with God once again. (Eph 2:8-22 and Rom 8:1-11)

Every born-again spirit-filled believer should seek this relationship with God through personal and consistent prayer, study of the word, and praise and worship. In addition, believers need to congregate on a regular basis to encourage and uplift one another in faith and to offer corporate worship to our Lord (I John 1:6-7).

The Holy Spirit continues to impart to each believer as He wills such gifts as wisdom, knowledge, healing, miracles, prophesy, discerning of spirits, speaking and interpreting of spiritual tongues, and love. Each gift is given for the purpose of glorifying our Lord and enriching the lives of the members the body of Christ (I Cor 12).

As a member of this body of Christ, we seek to obey His will through water baptism, spiritual baptism and Holy Communion. We also, as a body, encourage each member to seek God’s will for their personal life as well their place of ministry in the body as a whole.
