We kicked off the conference with introductions on Wednesday night. Ron and Annette Thiesen and Myself were invited to share our themes for this conference. Ron will be sharing on principles of the Kingdom of God and drew the congregations attention with the statement: "God did not save you so just you can go to heaven..." Annette will be sharing on appropriating Kingdom principles with an emphasis on Divine Healing. I will be sharing on the Great Commission and The Baptism of the Holy Spirit.

Ron gets us started in the first morning session with a powerful message as he follows up on his statement that God didn't save us just to bring us to heaven. He saved us so that He could establish His Kingdom on this Earth through us. 

Annette delivered a solid message in the second morning session where she shared 2 pillars of divine healing. First, we have to know the Will of God in the Scriptures which includes diving healing. Second, we must understand the importance of our thoughts as it pertains to divine healing. She will share pillars 3 and 4 tomorrow! 

I closed out the first day in the evening session where I taught on The Great Commission in the four Gospels and the Book of Acts and how we need the Holy Spirit to fulfill the great commission. I made the invitation to receive Jesus and 8 people came forward to either receive Jesus as Lord for the first time or rededicate their lives!!!

Ron kicked off the second full day of the conference continuing to teach on Kingdom principles. Ron shared on understanding the difference between being a saint and being sanctified. One is a state of being, the other is a process of becoming more and more Christ-like. He also taught on the our Kingdom authority here on this earth and working for Gods Kingdom to be manifested "on earth as in heaven." 

Annette taught another impactful message on receiving divine healing. Pillar three is the importance of your words as it pertains to divine healing. Pillar four is understanding our authority in Christ over sickness and disease. She followed up with a powerful time of praying for the sick by challenging other church members to practice praying for the sick. Multiple testimonies were shared of God already beginning to heal them, including a healed knee and healed hip!!! 

I closed out the second day in the evening service where I shared on the baptism of the Holy Spirit and how praying in tongues (the initial sign of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit) is also a powerful tool for us to receive revelation of God's benefits in salvation. I followed up by inviting those who wanted to receive the Baptism of the Holy Spirit for the first time or those who wanted a fresh infilling to come forward for prayer. The majority of the congregation came forward for prayer and many were filled with the Spirit of God!!!!

Ron started us off this morning by concluding his teaching on establishing the Kingdom of God on the earth. Ron challenged the congregation to understand that, as citizens of God's Kingdom, we have Kingdom benefits but we also have resposibilities. 

I followed up in the second morning session sharing on the four foundational Christian practices which are also the four primary ways that God speaks to us. The four practices are Read Your Bible, Pray, Go To Church, and Evangelize. I challenged the congregation as stated in 2 Timothy 4 to fulfill their ministries, both corporately and individually. 

Annette is ministering in the afternoon to the Women's group. I will follow up with her for updates. 

During the evening session, I ministered to the youth of the church. Approximately 40 teens were in attendance. I taught on the importance of each member of the Body of Christ doing their part and this includes young people. I exhorted them as the Bible says that God will pour out His Spirit on all flesh and young people will prophesy. We ended the night with some competitive games and activities.

This Conference concludes with 2 Sunday morning services. Iglesia Discipulos de Cristo is growing and multiplying, so two Sunday services are needed. Ron summed up his teaching on Principles of the Kingdom and Annette gave a powerful message for the congregation on shaking off the attacks of the enemy like Paul shook off the snake in the fire. Annette led the congregation in a time of ministry and prayer to break chains and be free from any lies and demonic oppression. It was a powerful time of ministry and many went away free! 

In the second service, I taught on healing and how some people need internal healing before receiving external healing but others need external healing before receiving internal healing. I concluded with challenging the congregation to reach out to God with the hand of faith in God's promises and not the hand of your own need. Annette closed out the second service with another powerful time of ministry as in the first service.
