Curriculum Info | Samuel's Mantle Prophetic School | Training for People Who "Don't" Hear God

Building God’s Prophetic House!

The curriculum of Samuel’s Mantle is meant to build from one level of knowledge to the next. It is very much like building a house! First you put in your foundation. Then you add the floor, walls, and the roof. Finally the windows, doors, and electricity.

Web-class curriculum:

WHO’S PROPHETIC? The priesthood of all believers is a well-accepted concept in the church. But what about the prophetic mantle? We all believe Pastor’s and Teachers are given gifts by God but we would never let an untrained Pastor or Teacher lead our church. When it comes to prophetic gifting many people believe if it’s God it shouldn’t require any training. Does this hold up to scripture? Or should we be training Prophets as we do Pastors and Teachers?

BLOCKS TO HEARING – If we are all called to walk in the prophetic then why can’t we? This is the question DVD 2 asks and answers. We look at the difference between the soul – mind, will, and emotions – and our spirits. We then study the effects of the training of our souls by our surrounding culture and how this training affects how we receive from God. In other words, we will be looking at how our world view affects our ability to receive from God.

PARADIGMS: How much do our paradigms affect the way we see life? Could it be that Jesus spoke in symbolic language because the people saw Jesus through their current world view? Did Jesus have to speak in parables because he didn’t fit their expectations? If the disciples who spoke to Jesus themselves didn’t get what he was about because of their outlook, how about us today? Could it be that God still uses dreams, visions and signs to help us get past our false paradigms?

TRAINING DISCIPLES: How important was symbolic language in the O.T.? An overview of events shows how many O.T. events tie in to a symbolic dream, vision, or sign. Jesus also trained the disciples in this language through his parables. And later on he expects them to know their meanings without his help. In Acts 2 Jesus poured out this symbolic language on all believers, but what about us who are now to live like them? Should we be in language study ourselves?

THE PUZZLE: In Acts 10:9-16 Peter has a vision from God that challenges his world views. Why did Peter have to value symbolic language, work through his paradigms on the way, and only then finally figure out what God wanted? Murray gives an example that shows how God still speaks the same way and why it was this type of language that God decided to release at Pentecost.

Following the signs: What is a sign? Are we supposed to watch for them? How much emphasis does God place on signs?

The great author and the flow of his storied – time lines! Identifying and interpreting time lines in the Bible, history, the news and in our personal lives. What is God saying in everyday events all around us?

Faith: a relationship, not an emotion. Guidelines for stepping out in faith. The key to the temple = faith!

Continuing further into the temple: journaling, biblical use of the imagination.

Discernment: does and don’t s, how to tell the difference between a wolf and the wounded, practicing the gift of discernment.

Burden bearing: a gift from birth, family issues, signs of unredeemed issues, safety mechanisms, cures to live a life of normalcy.

Dealing with personal pain: what is the biblical model for dealing with emotions? The process of turning the emotional system back on…cleansed.

Introduction to dreams: symbolic language, meeting Jesus in your dreams, how dreams connect to the spiritual realm.

Walking an Imparted Life

If you think about where you were at in the beginning of first year SAM in regard to:

Spiritual sensitivity
Interacting with Jesus in picture and vision
Seeing signs – everyday examples of Jesus around us

I’m sure you’re aware of the changes that have occurred in your belief systems. But more than that, you’ve received impartations—real encounters, real anointings, real gifts from the Holy Spirit. And now the question becomes: How do we walk this out? How do we live day by day from what we’ve been given?

Part of the reason for your growth is not just the teaching—it’s the community. When we play together we grow together. Faith is built as confirmation comes, and that needs to come from someone else. And if that someone else can play, has the same understanding, is cheering for us, that helps immensely. This is how impartation happens—not just in special moments, but as we walk together, share what we’re seeing, and encourage one another to live from what we’ve received.

As we move toward year three, we want to go deeper into that community interaction as we build on what we have done so far. Walking an imparted life means we’re no longer just receiving—we’re learning to live from those impartations every single day. Dreamwork and vision, which we will dive deeper into this coming year, is so much more interactive than what we have done so far—and there is so much more to learn! It is seeing the principles of God played out in community, experiencing it together, and then walking it out in our daily lives that brings the revelation to life and makes it truly ours.

6th year (online via Zoom), hosted by Catch the Fire Okanagan. January 2026 to Dec 2026. Must have completed 5th year to attend.

Moving from Inheritance to Commissioning

The following thought might sum this up well. I would think many of you in first year remember doing the Ancient Wells ministry time. To do that ministry time in the first year with a group of people with little faith, understanding of picturing, and no sense of community, leaves some results. But what happens if we do that activation now, as a community who has received so much and is ready to give it away? What if we step into and put on what has been given to us as inheritance, and then proceed to carry Jesus’ heart to others? What if time has no meaning in Christ and we actually go back, receive from the fathers and mothers of our faith, and then turn and commission the next generation? Do we have the faith as a community for that? I think we do.

This is an important key element to ponder. To get a community of people to a place where they trust each other, are willing to risk, and have both received enough and are ready to give away what they’ve been given—this actually takes years of building concept upon concept. We’ve been receiving our inheritance. Now we’re learning to steward it by giving it away. And in some ways we are just getting started as we go, in the words of the children from the Chronicles of Narnia:

“Further up and further in!”

In that regard, here are some of the things we are going to work on and learn in the coming year:

Your Personal Timeline of Impartation

At any point in your life where you have had an impartation from Holy Spirit, those anointings are still with you and can be drawn up and lived in at any time. This is your inheritance. And here’s the key: these anointings can be given away to others as well. What you’ve received, you can now commission others with.

Impartation Inner Healing

When Jesus gives us His Presence in an image, thought, feeling, etc., these impartations can rebuild our lives (and the lives of those we love) from trauma. Using the tools we have been working with, you will begin to see personal freedom and renewal. But it doesn’t stop with you—you’ll learn to give that away, to commission others into their own freedom and healing.

Dreamwork

Dreams are the voice of God and we want to acknowledge that by listening to the Voice of the Lord as He speaks in the watches of the night.

On top of the knowledge we already have we will add: learning to be aware of reaping and sowing, or put another way, learning to swap out. Often a dream shows us where we are stuck; by simply inviting Jesus’ perspective, we can have a dream play out completely differently, indicating the new freedom that is coming. Using a lot of the tools we already have in a new way invites another level of awareness and freedom—freedom that can be shared with others.

Contemplative Prayer

This will be something we will come back to as well. Learning to go deeper into the heart brings us to deeper places in God. In the heart is a secret place of peace and anointing given to us to abide in. Together we will learn to dwell there, and from that place of dwelling, to minister to others.

This is a partial list of some of the things I am thinking about for 2026. I see where we are going as really a Masters level program for people who don’t want to add to their knowledge, but want to become masters at receiving from God and giving away what they’ve received—moving from being children who inherit to being mature sons and daughters who commission others.

In the words of Moses:

“Show us your face, teach us your ways.”
