Discipleship Training

 (Basic Course)

 

 

 

/ By Pastor Priscilla

 

 

 

1. What is God like?

 

 

We can not see God

because we are the beings

 of flesh and five senses.

 

 

God observes the center

of our hearts and judges

the good and evil.

 

 

Because, God sees

the motivation in our minds,

we must ask everything

in humility.

 

 

God can be seen by

His children whose spirits

are poor and clean and

who accept the Lord.

 

 

The spiritual world exists,

but it is a place that

can not be seen.

 

 

We can see it through

the working of the

Holy Spirit.

 

 

When we get it, it is

called understanding

from the Lord.

 

 

And the Holy Spirit

will lead us to the port

of wishes.

 

 

We've become the

church community

(Ecclesia) in the world,

 

 

and when we are

born-again with tears

and repentance, our

spiritual eyes will open

and see God.

 

 

And each one is called

and has a special mission.

 

 

Just as the invalid man who

had suffered for 38 years

around the pool called

 

 

- 'Bethesda' had been

waiting for the water

 to be stirred up,

 

 

our hearts get to be

stirred up like the

water of the pool.

 

 

The heart is stirred up

-it means that as if

 

 

the heart is on fire,

passion is created by

the guidance of the

Holy Spirit.

 

 

We must get back to basics

and wait for the guidance

  of the Holy Spirit.

 

 

2. Judgement

 

 

Test comes to us,

but it is an opportunity

to meet the God of

reversal.

 

 

We must purify our hearts

 and pray to meet the Lord.

 

 

When we read the

Word of God.

 

 

The -'Logos'

(written language)

can be read with

our eyes,

 

 

but when guided

by the Holy Spirit,

 

 

we can meet the

-'Rhema'

(spoken language)

in the Bible.

 

 

"The LORD continued to

appear at Shiloh, and

there he revealed himself

  to Samuel through

his word."(1 Sam 3 : 21)

 

 

When we are led

by the Holy Spirit, the

words of the Bible come 

to us in revelation

as flashes.

 

 

We must meditate on

the Word day and night. 

 

 

If we let it go quickly,

it won't give us grace of God,

so we must meditate on

the Word and read it

over and over again.

 

 

It workseven when

it is not seen as a

revelation.

 

 

3. God is spirit.

 

 

"God is spirit,

and his worshipers

must worship in spirit

and in truth." (Jn 4 : 24)

 

 

God's name is Yahweh. 

I am who I am. I can feel

the self-esteem of God

  in this name.

 

 

He is not created by

anyone, but a creator.

 

 

Therefore,

we should pray to God

without reducing our

dreams and visions.

 

 

What is the person

of spirit like?

 

 

(Ex: A Plug)

 

 

Think of a plug.

Power works only when

we plug it into an outlet.

 

 

The power

of the Holy Spirit

is likewise.

 

 

Only when we have

the willingness to put

this plug in the power

of the Holy Spirit,

it will work on us.

 

 

4. God who made all things

 

 

"Whenever the living

creatures give glory,

honor and thanks to him

 

 

who sits on the throne

and who lives for

ever and ever,

 

 

the twenty-four elders

fall down before him

 

 

who sits on the throne,

and worship him who

lives for ever and ever.

 

 

They lay their crowns

before the throne

and say:

 

 

"You are worthy,

our Lord and God,

to receive glory and

honor and power,

 

 

for you created all things,

and by your will they

were created and

have their being."

(Rev 4 : 9 -11)

 

 

5. God's children

 

 

"I will be a Father to you,

and you will be my sons

and daughters, says the

Lord Almighty."

 

 

Let us not be discouraged

and frustrated, but open

the doorof possibility

in the Lord. 

 

 

Even if we make mistakes

and failures, God eventually

raises us up with a new

environment

 

 

and understanding

and wisdom from Him, 

 

 

and you will be my sons

and daughters, says

 the Lord Almighty."

(2 Cor 6 : 18)

 

 

At this time, we have

to lay down our ego.

 

 

We should not be

stubborn egos, but

should be instruments

used by God.

 

 

"The LORD reigns

forever; he has established

his throne for judgment."

(Psa 9 : 7)

 

6. He is a careful God.

 

"You will know that

the living God is among you

and that he will certainly

drive out before you

 

 

the Canaanites,

Hittites, Hivites,

Perizzites, Girgashites,

Amorites and Jebusites.

 

 

God gives us inheritance

and rewards with hope. 

 

 

There were already rulers

in the land of Canaan. 

So God sends us to

those who mock us. 

 

 

Like the Lord,

I go the road

outside the camp.

 

 

Where is the center

of Canaan in my heart?" 

(Josh 3 : 10)

 

 

Prayers and the guidance

of the Holy Spirit

will lead us to get rid of

prides and egos.

 

 

7. God is love.

 

 

Adam's pride comes

between God and us,

 

 

and God gave His one

and only son to us as

 a fellowship offering.

 

(Reconciliation child).

 

 

That is why we've

gotten to recover the

close relationship

with God.

 

 

God is Almighty

and Abba Father

who is the living one

and at work for us.

 

 

The work of the Holy

Spirit is accomplished

 through faith and will. 

Wishes come with will.
