Who’s Prophetic?
The answer is everyone. When the Holy Spirit was poured out in Acts 2, Peter explains to us that the fruit of the outpouring would be that we could all now hear God’s voice. For in essence that is what prophecy is, to listen to God’s voice and share what we hear. But to develop our God given abilities to hear, see, sense, feel, etc. what the Lord would like to share with us takes practice, training, and mentoring.
In Samuel’s Mantle we will help you develop your spiritual gifts to feel what is on the Lord’s heart, to see what the Father is doing, and to hear His voice. The old saying is, “teachers long to teach, pastors long to mentor, evangelists long to win souls, and prophetic people long to hear the voice of the Lord”. If the desire to hear the Lord is in your heart, Samuel’s Mantle would be a great place for you.
Why Samuel’s Mantle?
Murray’s explanation: I was praying about what to do next after I had finished my last assignment when God very clearly spoke into my spirit: “There is coming a new wind of my Spirit into the Fraser Valley and the language of this wind will be signs and wonders and dreams and vision (as stated by Acts 2). If my people receive my language in this coming season then they will be able to hear what I am telling them to do. However if they do not know how I speak and value how I speak this wind can blow right by them and they will not even know I am moving.”
The Lord then gave me a picture of a sailboat with its sail up surging forward in the sea as the wind drove it onward, and then a picture of a sailboat with its sail down not moving at all… even though the wind was blowing just as hard. The Lord then spoke again, “Build me a place where I can teach my people in this Valley to hear my voice and understand my ways. Prepare my people to understand my voice and my ways so that they can ride the wind of my Spirit.” Thus Samuel’s Mantle was born.
Is this your heart cry – to see people raised up that can hear the Lord’s voice, walk in his presence, and give it a way? If it is, consider partnering with us. Through classes, conferences, retreats, Internet training, and small groups meeting across the globe we are seeing more and more people awaken to the voice of God.
Building God’s Prophetic Church
The curriculum of Samuel’s Mantle is meant to build from one level of knowledge to the next. Over the course of the year we will discover how to: picture and see, sense and feel, speak what we hear from the Lord (prophecy), develop an understanding of God’s Father heart, practice in small groups, gain an understanding of why the Bible is full of symbolic language, and uncover the belief systems that block us from being able to receive from the Father. While learning all of this, we are building a listening, worshipful, and fun community environment along the way.
