When you voice your submission, with real faith and intercession, to those whom God has set over you, you actually open the door to walk on with God in a way that you may not realize. The moment you become submissive to someone to teach you, you lay a great deal of responsibility upon him… Continue reading Who knows the submissive do!

The true submission that the Lord desires is not a superficial passive submission. There are progressive steps of submission, as we determine the will of the Lord and walk in it. There must be a balance between our individual seeking of the Lord and the collective ministry of confirmation that comes from the Body. First,… Continue reading Explosive faith! -via submission

We need to know more about the kind of dedication and service that goes beyond what is demanded of it, that goes beyond a reluctant submission to the Lord and makes itself a love slave to the Lord, and what the Lord does for such a dedication. We are anxious to get the secrets that… Continue reading We had our ears pierced

All of us are concerned about divine order, more so these days than ever before. At the beginning of this walk it was more of a theory with us, but now it has become a very practical way of life. And as the Body is increasing so rapidly, we know that it must have a… Continue reading At His feet

In teaching us about the depth of submission that He wants in our lives, the Lord is saying, “Love Me at your own risk.” This is not only true of loving the Lord but it seems to be true of loving one another. Think of all that a person normally would give in love for… Continue reading Love me at your own risk
