Sharing Destiny

Glory to God!

Yesterday was awesome as we met together in the afternoon as well as in the evening to celebrate Christmas with the poor and needy. The children and the youth prepared and performed a powerful drama to emphasise the true meaning of Christ's birth and the power of the Cross. In the afternoon they performed the drama in English and in the evening they performed it in German at the Christmas celebration for the needy. You can see pictures of both meetings here!

We praise God for His hand upon us and for where He is taking us together! Yesterday the Lord spoke to us about His covenant with us and our covenant with Him and one another. He showed us that it has always been His will to bring honour to His name in every generation and that we are called to do the same in this generation as we covenant with God and one another, forming deep-spirited relationships and sharing our destiny together.

In the evening we celebrated Christmas together with the poor and needy as we met in a local hall and provided a delicious meal for the people that was catered by the NH hotel group. Apart from receiving plenty of food, we also worshipped together and the people also received the Word through preaching and the drama performed by our KLF children and youth. We praise God for the many people that came (almost double compared to last year!) and that we were able to provide everyone with enough to eat. Hallelujah!

Spiritual Love

Praise be to God!

This past week was awesome! On Saturday, David Rowe (KLF worship leader) led an EQUIP seminar and workshop on worship and encountering God. We provided translation into German in order to open our EQUIP meetings to other churches in order to also bless and equip others to know God and make Him known. Many people encountered God in a fresh and dynamic way and learned how to worship the Lord with their lives. We praise God for the anointing upon David's life and the spiritual insight God is giving him to release the saints into greater intimacy with, and worship of God. The teaching from the day is available to listen to and download on the teaching section of the KLF website.



We are excited about what God is showing us and it is wonderful to see the manifestation of God's revelation as people apply the Word to their lives and their lives to the Word. Yesterday the Lord spoke to us about spiritual love and He showed us the following:

1. God has given us everything to be a revelation of Him through our knowledge of Him. 2 Peter 1:3
2. We are graced to reveal God - His presence, His personality and His power!
3. As we know God's love, we will reveal His love. 1 John 4:7-12; John 14:15; John 13:34
4. Our goal is to love as God loves us. 1 Tim. 1:5
5. God's love is spiritual love. Col. 1:8; Gal. 5:22
6. Spiritual love comes from a pure heart, a good conscience and a sincere faith. 1 Tim. 1:5

Praise be to God for His revelation to us so that we can know Him and make Him known for His glory! Hallelujah!

Yesterday evening we had another awesome opportunity to demonstrate God's love to the homeless and needy at the monthly soup kitchen. We praise God that everyone left satisfied and that spiritual seed was sown into their lives. We rejoice in the opportunities to pray with these precious people for God to save them, deliver them and heal them and we are seeing more and more people respond to the Word and the love that is being shared with them. Hallelujah!



We are looking forward to what promises to be an exciting week with Richard Maybery from South Africa who will be leading a series of EQUIP meetings from the 5 - 9 November on Seeking God's Face. Please check the EQUIP section of the KLF website for details on times and location.

The Spirit of Faith

Glory to God!

The Lord is continuing to speak to us about living according to what we have received! On Friday, at the men's prayer breakfast, God spoke to the men about walking in their inheritance and yesterday He spoke to KLF about honouring Him by agreeing with what we have received. After an awesome time of worship led by the Holy Spirit, the Lord showed us the following:

1. We honour God when we reflect in the natural what we believe we have received in the spiritual.
2. We have received mercy, grace and favour. Therefore we must deny self and live our lives in agreement with what we have received to honour God. Rom.12:1
3. The words we use reflect what we believe. Luke 6:45
4. When we agree with God's will and what He has given us, we exercise the spirit of faith. 2 Cor. 4:13-15
5. We are to be "living agreements"; the "Amen" of what God has spoken and done in Christ Jesus. 2 Cor. 1:20
6. We are to speak the very words of God. 1 Peter 4:11
7. Jesus spoke the will of the Father into being and healed the sick, raised the dead, stilled the storm and resisted the devil! Power was released as Jesus agreed with the already revealed will of the Father! John 5:19
8. Speaking God's will is not a formula - it's not about the words we use. It's about revealing the heart of God as we speak in agreement with His will.
9. Thanking God is the fruit of the spirit of faith as the believer thanks God for what he has received! Col. 3:15-17
10. The spirit of faith is also exercised through prophecy.
11. Prophecy is the revelation of God's heart.
12. A prophetic people reveal the heart of God in word and deed. 1 Cor. 14:31

We then paired up and prophesied over one another as we simply agreed with the Father and spoke God's truth over one another. People were greatly encouraged and edified (1 Cor. 14:3)! God is showing us that we must begin with what we know in order to enter into the unknown. Hallelujah!

We praise God that we now have a room in which to have regular mid-week meetings in. We will therefore have our church prayer meeting on Tuesdays at the IBTC (International Bible Training Centre) at 8pm as well as our new meeting for women that will start at the same venue on Thursdays at 7.30pm!



We are also very excited about the special meetings we are arranging to help people know God and make Him known. These equipping seminars and workshops are called EQUIP and will take place as the Lord leads. Our next EQUIP meeting is on the 11th October and will be led by David Rowe who will teach God's people to encounter God. From the 5th to the 9th of November, Richard Maybery will be visiting Frankfurt and we are also planning another EQUIP meeting, that will be led by Alexander Blair, on Prophetic Evangelism.

We praise God that He is fulfilling His Word to us to establish us this year. We are growing spiritually and numerically and we're excited to be on this awesome journey with Him! Hallelujah!
