The Force of the Prophetic Voice | Dr. James Tan | November 27, 2022

Recap:
God built something in us over the past week. Dr. James Tan was with us Wednesday, over the weekend, and Monday night during Healing School, and the messages built upon each other. He dove into a topic that not many people cover: the prophetic word. Too many people focus on reading the Word, hearing the Word, and doing the Word. They don’t realize that they also need to invest in the Spirit and His work in their lives, which includes prophecy.

Dive Deeper:
God wants you to be discipled in both His Word and His Spirit. One way you will grow in His Spirit is through becoming more and more aware of prophecy. The more you tune your heart to the Spirit, the more you will see prophetic words coming through you and to you.

Learn to be sensitive to the anointing; one way you can do this is through following peace. The anointing is for your life. It equips you, specific to what you need to follow God’s direction on your life.

Honor and respect those who are generals in God’s army. By honor and respecting their gift, you’re making room for the anointing. Anointing requires recognition and cooperation, but they must follow each other. You can’t cooperate with what you don’t recognize. As you honor the anointing in others, anointing can splash on you!

God’s Spirit is a well on the inside of you, but He also wants to become a river. God’s Spirit isn’t just for you. It is for you to pour out upon others. Speak truth! Prophecy isn’t just about predicting things that will happen. It’s about proclaiming truth as well.

Keep your heart tuned to heaven. Activate God’s Spirit on the inside of you through treasuring it and being aware of His Spirit at work. Give His Spirit the proper place and respect.

Read About It:
2 Corinthians 1:21–22 KJV
Now he which stablisheth us with you in Christ, and hath anointed us, is God; who hath also sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts.

John 4:14 KJV
But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

John 7:37 KJV
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Discussion Questions:
1. Have you ever prophesied over someone?
2. How does the fruit of someone’s life tell us about their connection with God’s Spirit?
3. What can you do today to prepare your heart to receive from God?

Recent Sermon Notes

Grace Unveiled: Everyone Is Guilty (Rom. 2:1–9)  | Jim Hammond

Mar 24, 2024

Pastor Jim gave the fifth installment of his series entitled, “Grace Unveiled.” The first three chapters of Romans can be summed up by saying people who rely on their own righteousness, their own ability, their own self-effort will not escape the judgment of God. It is only through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ can any man escape His judgment. In the book of Romans, the apostle Paul defines New Testament righteousness as the ability to stand before God without a sense of guilt or inferiority.

2024 Prayer and Presence Conference | Heidi Baker, Joseph Harris, and Leif Hetland

Mar 15, 2024

Demonstrations of the presence of God were manifested at The Prayer and Presence Conference this past weekend. Guest speakers Heidi Baker, Joseph Harris, and Leif Hetland shared what was on their hearts, and a definite theme came forth—we are at the threshold of a great awakening to God. The flames for world evangelism were ignited by three different videos: 1) an update on Living Word’s church planting mission, 2) a video of how Iris Global Ministries is in the midst of violence and persecution, yet they bravely continue their work, and 3) a video of a great outpouring of God’s Spirit in Asia!

Grace Unveiled: How to Get a Reprobate Mind #4 | Jim Hammond

Mar 10, 2024

Pastor Jim gave his fourth installment in his series entitled, “Grace Unveiled,” with the subtitle being “How to Get a Reprobate Mind.” This is a series on the book of Romans, a book considered to be the greatest writing of Christian doctrine in all the Bible. Pastor Jim says it has multiple themes on redemption. It touches on our inability to work for the favor of God, the guilt that we have to deal with on a daily basis, and the fact that salvation is only to be received by believing. Romans 1: 24–32 is the subject of this message.

FOCUS FOR EFFECT: Love | Mac Hammond

Mar 3, 2024

Pastor Mac taught the third installment of his series entitled, “Focus on Effect,” based upon 2nd Corinthians 4:17, “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.” The apostle Paul said the hardships in our lives can be light and momentary. It all depends on what we place our focus upon. Paul says we are to focus our attention on what is eternal, rather than what is temporal. There are three things that are eternal: faith, hope, and love. We are to focus on that.

FOCUS FOR EFFECT: Hope | Mac Hammond

Feb 27, 2024

This series is all about focus, meaning where do you give your attention. This is important because whatever you give your attention to will determine how hard or difficult your life will be. And conversely, it will determine how easy and carefree it will be. Teaching on 1st Corinthians 13:13, Pastor Mac says you can gain the clarity you need to succeed in your life by focusing on matters of faith, hope, and love.
