Summary

God is raising and purifying a spiritual priesthood whose focus is firmly set upon Him. Although believers should remain aware of what is happening in the world, they must not allow their spirits to become distracted or consumed by it. Christ has already won the victory; therefore, His people are called to walk in that victory, trust His promises, and carry His presence into every situation. This priesthood ministers to God through worship, listening, faith, and intercession for all creation. Believers do not enter this calling through human effort or spiritual striving, but through the enabling power of the Holy Spirit. As they become conformed to the image of Christ and learn to live with an awareness of who they are in Him, God’s presence and glory flow through them. Their faith is not merely directed toward something that will happen someday—it declares that God’s Kingdom is coming forth now.

Summary

God’s people are called to embody and speak His living Word. Because His Word carries creative power and accomplishes His purposes, words spoken in alignment with Him can minister life, freedom, peace, and revelation to others. As believers spend time in God’s presence, His rest and peace become part of them and flow naturally to those with receptive hearts. The ecclesia—God’s called-out people—is being matured and equipped to express Christ as a many-membered body. Their calling is to listen, believe, proclaim what God has spoken, and trust Him to fulfill it.

Summary

This conversation focuses on a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit through a people being brought into oneness. The first outpouring at Pentecost empowered the disciples to become witnesses of Christ, but it was also the beginning of an ongoing work of the Spirit. The Family describes Christ coming forth through a many-membered Body rather than through one individual. As believers become one and yield themselves to the Holy Spirit, a greater corporate anointing can be released through them. Although no one fully understands how this greater outpouring will unfold, the Family believes it has already begun. The call is to remain humble, spiritually awake, open, and expectant for the greater measure that is still to come.
