The Magnificent Church: God's Power Is Being Manifested

By Bill Vincent

Start this book off right with this introduction. Leaders with an Apostolic anointing are paving the way to greatness. The new season of the spirit is being prepared for the leaders. Leaders will be confronted by these mature, faithful prophets who will announce with great authority and force that position changes are imminent. True Apostles must now show their authority. "True Apostolic IS Coming" rang out from Heaven as I began to write this sermon. The prophetic message that said, "Apostle come forth" was given to me several months ago. I had no idea what was in store for me. Our apostolic mission will be upon us before we know it, therefore we need to gain a strong grasp on it now." This sort of apostolic leadership is exemplified by Samuel. None of the Lord's teachings were lost, and he did not ask for food from the people."

Samuel's life and work have essential features that the Lord wants to pass on to the apostolic leadership that will shortly arise. If we dig deep into Samuel's story, we'll uncover important insights that will help us prepare for this leadership role and minister to the Father's heart. Scripture tells us that when the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus to take up residence within Him, a voice from above confirmed the truth of what had just happened.

2 Corinthians 6:19 An angelic voice proclaimed, "Thou are my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased." Then the Holy Spirit descended on him in the form of a dove. Similar to the disciples hearing the confirming voice proclaiming Jesus to be God's Son whose words were eternal while seeing the Lord's transfiguration, Apparently, the attesting voice from above indicates that something can be taken for granted as factual. When we have a greater grasp of the apostolic, the more likely it is that we can continue this amazing work without being overwhelmed by its intensity and strength. Praise be to God if we are able to faithfully carry out this important duty with character and honesty.

Apostolic in the true sense of the word

Start this book off right with this introduction. Leaders with an Apostolic anointing are paving the way to greatness. The new season of the spirit is being prepared for the leaders. Leaders will be confronted by these mature, faithful prophets who will announce with great authority and force that position changes are imminent. True Apostles must now show their authority. True Apostolic IS Coming rang out from Heaven as I began to write this sermon. The prophetic message that said, Apostle come forth was given to me several months ago. I had no idea what was in store for me. Our apostolic mission will be upon us before we know it, therefore we need to gain a strong grasp on it now. This sort of apostolic leadership is exemplified by Samuel. None of the Lord's teachings were lost, and he did not ask for food from the people.

Samuel's life and work have essential features that the Lord wants to pass on to the apostolic leadership that will shortly arise. If we dig deep into Samuel's story, we'll uncover important insights that will help us prepare for this leadership role and minister to the Father's heart. Scripture tells us that when the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus to take up residence within Him, a voice from above confirmed the truth of what had just happened.

2 Corinthians 6:19 An angelic voice proclaimed, Thou are my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. Then the Holy Spirit descended on him in the form of a dove. Similar to the disciples hearing the confirming voice proclaiming Jesus to be God's Son whose words were eternal while seeing the Lord's transfiguration, Apparently, the attesting voice from above indicates that something can be taken for granted as factual. When we have a greater grasp of the apostolic, the more likely it is that we can continue this amazing work without being overwhelmed by its intensity and strength. Praise be to God if we are able to faithfully carry out this important duty with character and honesty.

The Lord did not allow a single word of Samuel's to be lost. What a powerful demonstration of the closeness and trust between the Lord and those in authority over Him! As Samuel matured, the Lord was by his side, and nothing he said was lost.

3:19; 3:19 As Samuel matured, the LORD was by his side, and nothing he said was lost. For us to speak in His name, we must be so close to Him that only the disclosure of Jesus Christ would suffice.

Chapter 1 of Galatians Because it was only through the revelation of Jesus Christ that I was able to learn it, I did not receive it from anybody else. There were no presumptuous or reckless words said by Samuel when he spoke in the name of the Lord. As a result, the words he uttered to the people in the name of the Lord were fully supported by the Lord.

Our highest exemplar, the Lord Jesus Christ, is described in the scriptures as being so obedient to the Holy Spirit's guidance that he said and did nothing but what he witnessed the Father doing. The Father is in me, and I am in the Father. Do you not believe this to be the case? The words I speak to you are not my own; they are the works of the Father who is in me.

This is the passage from John 14:10 in the New Testament. Do you really believe that I am a part of the Father and that the Father is a part of me? The Father who dwells in me does the works, not the words that I speak to you. When we commit our will to the Holy Spirit, we may be assured that none of our words will fall to the ground because we will only speak in His name when we hear from Him first. These are the sons of God for whom the Spirit of God is leading.

In Romans 8:14, the Apostle Paul cites this verse. All who are led by the Holy Spirit are God's children. The Holy Spirit, who lives in us, will perform the same miracles as He did in Christ.

Jesus Christ's words in John 14:12 Surely, Surely, I say unto you, whomever believes in me will do the same things I do, and more, because I am going to my Father.

Samuel's steadfastness in not abusing his authority in front of God and the people is one of his most enduring legacies. Only Samuel could testify that he asked for money, goods, or property from anyone in all of Israel. To assess people rightly and fairly was not something he was swayed by the world's spirit either. It is imperative that the apostolic leadership that is soon to emerge has humility and a real love for the church's members.

2-4 of 1 Samuel 12 And now, the king walks before you, and I am old and gray-haired, and my sons are here with you, and I have walked before you since I was a child. Witness against me before the LORD and his anointed: whose ox have I taken? Look, here I am. Whose ox have I taken? Where's my own or else? Alternatively, who have I deceived? How many people have I harmed? Or have I received any bribe to blind my sight from the hands of anyone else? as well as its restoration to you, which I will perform. Thou hast neither robbed us nor harassed us, nor hast thou seized anything from any man's hand, they said.

Acknowledging that men's affairs should be viewed through the lens of wisdom and truth, Apostle Paul warned the Church of Corinth and today's Christian community. Having Christ's character as shown in Samuel's life is essential if we are to avoid abusing God's anointing and power for our own personal advantage. No doubt there is a role for donating and supporting the work of the ministry, as well as participating in the anointing's fruitful labor. In order to be trustworthy stewards of God's mysteries, power, and sustenance, we must pray as Paul did. The church's prosperity will be used for the good of the kingdom, not for selfish gain or ostentation. The apostolic church in the book of Acts demonstrated love and unity by pooling resources and distributing them according to need.

Anointed leaders, like Samuel, will stand before God as His representatives, separating the sacred from the profane.

Scripture references Psalm 98:6, 7 in this regard. The LORD responded to the prayers of Moses, Aaron, and Samuel, who were among his priests and those who called upon his name. In the cloudy pillar, he spoke to them, and they listened and obeyed his commands and the ordinance he gave them.

Moses and Aaron were priests who were charged with praying on behalf of God's people and teaching them how to walk in the path of righteousness. Samuel's ministry was created by God's evident presence. We can begin to bring the church out of Babylonian disarray and restore her to a posture of loyalty and devotion to the Lord if we are faithful in these three areas. God will pour forth the Holy Spirit in abundance if he can discover people who are pure. As transitional men in covenant with the Lord, these steadfast leaders marked a point of distinction for the people of God. Exactly how the Lord will use Apostolic leadership in this day may be seen here. This growing leadership will be given the Priests, Prophets, and Kings (Kingly) anointings. Mercy and judgment were shown to each of these three.

In the day, they will be a pillar of cloud, but at night, they will transform into pillars of fire, illuminating the earth with their prophetic anointing. Similarly to how Israel was shielded from the judgments of Egypt, the Holy Spirit will offer a canopy of safety for each. Going on, the haven of Goshen will be revealed. It is impossible for anything to happen on Earth unless the Lord first discloses the details of His plans to His servants.

It's Amos 3:7, according to the Bible. While it's true that the Lord GOD is powerless to intervene, he does reveal his plan to the prophets.

Each of Moses, Aaron, and Samuel represents a different sort of government that will be in place in the future. God's interactions with them and how he employed these guys will likewise be reflected in their future leadership. He intends to impart divine insight. The Bible says that God's breath is the source of all wisdom. In order to understand these times and what we need to do in order to be His dwelling, He will breathe on us.

In spite of his amazing destiny, Samuel didn't experience God's supernatural dealings until he was commissioned as a prophet. Samuel had yet to meet the Lord, and he had not yet received the revelation of the Lord's word.

It is said in 1 Samuel 3:7: The word of the LORD had not yet been revealed to Samuel, and he did not yet know the LORD.

People who have never experienced any kind of prophetic or supernatural experience may believe that they are unqualified for such a position of authority. The scriptures, however, make it clear that Samuel had not received the word of the Lord until he was commissioned by the Lord in a very precise way. Today's Samuel type leaders are largely unaware of the visions and revelation of the Lord that have been given to them in the past. Nonetheless, these leaders are destined for huge and powerful expressions of the Holy Spirit when their training is complete and the timing is right.

Moving the Glory Cloud

Every time God reveals something new, we must follow suit. That confirmation from God is really exciting for me! You've need to turn to a specific chapter in the Bible and start reading. Increase, increase, increase, increase, increase, increase, read a Scripture after reading multiple verses in this paragraph. This was a symbolic portrayal of God's purpose to release growing measures of growth in the days to come, even though there is no chapter of Scripture that explicitly states this. I was reading a passage from Numbers 10 at the time. It's fair to say that Numbers wasn't one of the books I'd recently considered reading. Revelations, Daniel, Zechariah, and the Gospel of John have taken up much of my time. When I first saw the vision, it appeared to be a random and cryptic passage, but I knew it was from God. It became clear that the Lord had given me a specific piece of scripture to memorize in order to have perfect assurance that it was from Him. According to Numbers 10:1-2, Israel was given a declaration by God to call a holy assembly and prepare them for movement.

Ten:1 and 2 And the Lord told Moses to create two trumpets of silver, a whole piece, so that he may use them for the calling of the assembly and for the movement of the camps, as he had instructed.

The focus of Numbers 10 is on preparing God's people to enter a land of promise with the cloud of His presence. Moses was given detailed instructions on how to shift the cloud to a new position when the time arrived. This prophetic revelation makes it clear that the body of Christ is being summoned to a holy assembly and is getting ready to follow the movement of His Presence.

VISION had me reading a verse from Numbers 10:28 with the translation increase, increase, increase, increase rather than the real verse itself. When they set out, the children of Israel traveled in accordance with their armies.

God's precise plan laid out by His Spirit explains my understanding of this text in relation to the upcoming rise. With His gifts and grace, the Lord desires that we connect ourselves with Him in a specific way so that we can reap the fruits of His favor.

Isaiah 66:1–2 has much of that order. This is what the Lord says: My throne is in heaven and my footstool rests on the ground. Where do you construct a house for me? What is my resting place? There is nothing in the world that I haven't made, and nothing that I haven't been; yet I will look at this man, even to him who is poor and contrite of heart. In the days to come, three things will help us align ourselves with God: Humility is a state of mind. Broken and contrite hearts trembling in awe and reverence at God's Word (Rhema & Logos)

Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun were explicitly told by the Lord to march ahead of the Tabernacle.

According to Numbers 10:14-16, Overlooking his retinue was Nahshon son of Amminadab, commander of Judah's camp according to their legions. Moreover, Nethaneel the son of Zuar was in charge of the troops of the Issachari tribe. Eliab, the son of Helon, was in charge of the Zebulun tribe's troops.

The lion's head was the symbol of Judah. The Lord is clearly showing Himself as the Lion of Judah. He was born in a manger and died as a lamb of sacrifice. As a result, the Bride of Christ's praise must go before us, combined with a comprehension of the times and seasons described in the blessings of Issachar, as depicted in the Book of Issachar. During this ordained time, we have the opportunity to make progress and to regain our lost cultural legacy. Revealing insights about Zebulun and Moses' blessing in Deuteronomy 33:18-19 were delivered while in South Africa following Rosh Hashanah.

Deuteronomy 33:18 and 19 Rejoice, Zebulun, in your departure, and, Issachar, in your camp. Because of the wealth of the sea and treasures hidden in the sand, they will summon the people to the mountain and offer sacrifices in righteousness.

Zebulun means a residence in Hebrew, yet the area of Zebulun was long shunned by the Christian community because of its depravity and heresy. However, after a single visit by Jesus, it became recognized as a country of lighting and a source of enormous brightness.

Matthew 4:15-16 It was beyond Jordan, beyond Jordan, beyond the Sea of Galilee; it was Zabulon and Nephthalim. People who were in the dark saw a tremendous light, and those who were in the shadows of death saw a bright light.

With this Blessing, numerous areas are shown to be ready for a divine visitation. Zebulun's blessings will be especially evident in coastal locations
