Deeper School For YOU!

Well, everyday is more than an adventure out here. It is LIFE! I wish I had enough words, or just the right words to express what this season of life is birthing in me. I definitely feel like an entirely new creature everyday. We have spent time learning about the nature and character of God, learning how to live on the RIGHT (the resurrected side!) of the cross, and learning WHO God says we are.

This is the "I Am" statement God gave me. It is based on the prophetic words in my life, and the destiny God has spoken to my own heart and that which my parents speak of me: "I am a creative worshipper. I am a prophetic psalmist. I am a dreamer. I am a sweet fragrance to God and people all over the world. I am a tree planted with living water, full of good fruit. I’m one who entreats, one who loves. I am a lover of the Lord, and a lover of people. I have been set apart for a purpose. I am anointed with council and might. I’m a box-breaker, I’m a butterfly. I am a burning flame. I am unique, yet I am one of His children, and a member of His body. I am a walking miracle. I am a warrior. I am intelligent and knowledgeable, with an excellent spirit. I am a friend to the discarded and I bring them into the wildness of the Kingdom, the passion of the Kingdom. I am an expression of healing, a manifestation of healing, a manifestation power, a manifestation release, and a manifestation the anointing of God. I am relentlessly seeking the realness of God in this life. I am Terralyn Marie Williams - good earth, a spring of water, a sweet fragrance, and one who is willing to wear a helmet."

God has been SUPER good to me! I've included a bit of my class notes at the bottom for all of you. READ them - so I can share my blessings with you! I'm on track learning guitar and piano. My goal to be able to lead worship by the time I return is within reach. Praise You Jesus!

As you all know, I'm here on support. Since I arrived, I have had $100 come in, which, thank the Lord, helped me pay rent for October. Tuition ($820 for this month) was due Friday, and I didn't have it. I meet with the accounting department again Friday. Please use Paypal or call The Mission to advise them of any support you are planning to send (tax-deductible) toward my tuition. I would REALLY appreciate it! I am not able to drive my car right now because it needs a $1200 brake job, everything is rusted out and it all needs replaced. If you are able to help with that, my walking feet would be supremely grateful :)

I miss everyone! Mariah in FL (expecting with my first grandchild), my family in Indiana, my friends in Indiana and Florida, and especially the Vineyard. I miss my Mom. I love you all!!!

Class Notes:

Dan McCollum 10.06.10
Living on the Right Side of the Cross
I’ve been crucified with Christ, it’s no longer I who live - the LIFE of Christ is now me. Don’t stay on the cross in death, move forward into the LIFE of Christ and take on His resurrection body.
Even self-control is a fruit of the Spirit – that’s Christ in you! All the glory goes to Christ, you can’t do it.
Forgiveness toward the Cross, freedom at the cross, new life (new creation) after the cross.
New creation – we bear the likeness of the second Adam now, no longer bearing the likeness of the first Adam.
II Cor 5:17 – new creation – OLD passed away; NEW things have come. New – Kenos (new in respect to form, unused and unworn. As respects a substance of a new kind, unprecedented, novel, uncommon, unheard. As respect to substance of an ENTIRLEY new kind) The same word used for “New” covenant, and “New” heaven and “New” earth. Old – Archeas (things from the beginning, original, primal, ancient). “Have come” – Genomi (to come into existence, to come to pass, to arise, to appear in history, to come upon the stage). ANYONE in Christ is a NEW creature!
First born – protocas (first of a prototype) Romans 8:29 – As Christ is now, so are we NOW in this world. God is recreating in us the GLORIFIED Christ.
II Peter 1:3-4 – Participate in the divine nature and so escape the world and its lusts.
I Cor 3:1-4 – are you not acting like mere men? “mere men” Anthropas (human beings) spiritual – nuematicas (relating to one who is filled with or governed by the spirit, belonging to a spirit, a being higher than man, but inferior to God).
We are living people filled with the same thing that filled God Himself.
I Cor 3:16 – we are the Temple - nahas (the Holy of Holies)
Jesus Christ was God, we get His nature. We have the mind of Christ, to know the thoughts of God, to discern spiritual truths.
I Cor 4:1 – we are entrusted with the secret things of God.
I Cor 14: - he who speaks in a tongue speaks mysteries – mysterion (secrets of the Kingdom not revealed to ordinary mortals)
Just living forgiven is great, but what if you believed you were not a mere mortal? You might start acting like spiritual men.
I Cor 3:22 – All things are yours, fullness of power/anointing and the world. The world is Gods’, and you’re his. The meek will inherit the earth. Live in the revelation that the world is your Father’s land. Treat it and its’ people like something/someone that belongs to God and not to the devil. God has given us the ministry of reconciliation. Life is yours and death is yours (authority to raise the dead). The present and the future (not the PAST, that’s under the BLOOD) are yours. All are yours, you are of Christ, and Christ is of GOD.
Draw from the fullness of the cross. Run to it to withdraw FULLNESS of life and glory MORE than you run to if for forgiveness.
Col 1:9-10 – asking God to fill you with the knowledge of His will through all nuematicas (spiritual) wisdom and understanding, so you can live a life worthy of the Lord.
There are things that will come to your life, but you don’t have to address it as a mere mortal.
Eph 4:11 – to prepare God’s people…until we all reach UNITY of faith….attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Jesus had the Holy Spirit without measure.
Live this out by renewing your mind. Any place you know what the will of God is, but you are powerless to live it, renew your mind. (revelation)
You don’t have to tear down a truth to build another truth. Truth builds upon itself.
Increase your knowledge of Christ. Earthly Jesus was walking toward the cross, we are walking from the cross. We are walking in triumphal procession, still in the world. II Cor 5:16 – from now on, we regard no one from an earthly point of view, though we once regarded Christ this way – yet now we do so NO LONGER. In the same way you’ve searched out to know the earthly Christ, PRESS IN to know the resurrected, glorified Christ. Because we are identifying with death, burial AND resurrection of Christ. (revelation)
Soaking – impartation – be in the position to just receive
Personal Identity
Most important questions in your walk - Who do you say Jesus is, and who does Jesus say you are?
Jesus prophetic word over Simon’s life became his identity – Peter. The same is true of Abram to Abraham, Jacob and Israel.
We all have both a corporate and an individual identity.
Corporate – relate to each other based on our heavenly identity.
The truest thing in the universe is what heaven/God says about you.
The part of reality that we control has been shaped by what you believe about yourself.
A primary way to find out more about how God sees us is through personal prophecy.
What we’ll do is future tense, but who we are is present tense




Graham Cooke 10.19.10
II Sam 5:17 – Rephaim – a place of stubborn resistance. Giants live there – symbolic of a place in your life where you’ve been defeated over and over. Geba – that which is raised up. Geza – that which is utterly destroyed. David followed through all the way to utterly destruction of his enemies.
Sometimes you need two battles in Rephaim areas; one battle to get free, one battle to stay free. So your breakthrough must be followed through to establishment. Breakthroughs are always delivered to the point of our abiding.
All victories must be established, and then built upon.
Victories are always certain and sure; never in doubt in the Kingdom. There is no place for doubt in the Kingdom. The least you should always be is very confident.
Life in the Spirit is really about you reclaiming your inner territory, and occupying it in Jesus name.
Your freedom is established through authority; freedom giving you your anointing.
Everything God does is always relational. Establish your victory in an upgrade in you relationship with the Lord.
Your initial response is always vital.
There must be an emotional release. Part of every breakthrough is the emotional restoration is joy. Pursue joy and laughter as a part of your favor and birthright through Jesus. Be intentional about the love of God.
God gave you feelings; they’re not wrong, they’re important. They are just as important as faith.
You can’t be separated from God love. Stay in a tangible relationship with God.
Faith is never divorced from the reality of the inner man in your heart.
The very idea that God gave you feelings in the natural, that He wants you to deny in the spiritual is a little weird.
There are times when faith must stand alone, and times when faith must take the lead.
God speaks to your heart. The word of God is exploding into your heart, and then rising up into your mind.
Negative emotions leave us double minded in everything, since we are partnered with doubt, fear, etc.
Love, joy and peace lead us into trust, faith and confidence.
Experiencing the point of breakthrough will involve the destruction of our negativity.
Psalm 27:13-14 – David would have despaired UNLESS he believed the goodness of God. The goodness of God must overcome despair.
All the attributes of God lead us to being delighted. Wait on the attributes of the Lord. Sit and rest in that goodness.
You owe it to the world to be delighted in Jesus. Let desire and delight co-mingle in your own heart.
Emotions HELP us to discover God. The enemy wants to keep your emotions captive. When you’re having an emotional release, don’t stop to analyze what’s happening. You can do that after God has completed your release!
If your emotions have been imprisoned, then so has your mind and how you think of yourself. As a man thinks in HIS HEART, so is he.
If all your thinking has brought you to a place you don’t like, have another thought.
Ask the Holy Spirit to upgrade a good thought to a GREAT one.
Maturity is learning to recognize a negative perception, and bring it under the rule of the Holy Spirit. You don’t coexist with a negative, your destroy it. Immaturity remains when we don’t change our thinking.
Torment is an attack on your mind and emotions to make you think and feel separate form God.
I am in Christ, and HE is IN me – there is NO separation.
When I’m resting in the Lord, I’m resting in Who He is and not what He’s doing.
Your peace comes out of Who Jesus is in you now, not in what’s going on around you.
The life always rises up from within in. We need a mindset that is rooted in our spirit, and not in our soul.
If your soul is not subject to the inner man of the spirit, it will be subject to every other thing around it. II Tim 1:7, Romans 12:2. When your mind is renewed you prove what the will of God is.
The Holy Spirit empowers us to choose the mindset which partners with our breakthrough.
Develop mindsets that keep you moving forward. Ask the Lord, “What is it that you want to develop in/show me now that You couldn’t do in any other moment?”.
Graham’s Mindsets:
1. I am whole person fighting off sickness; not a sick man trying to get well.
2. I have permission to ask and keep on asking, so that I can receive.
3. I will turn my weakness into a joyful vulnerability. When I am weak, I’m actually STRONG.
4. I’m choosing to live life as a celebration. I’m choosing joy.
If you want to be strong, you need a better way of thinking. Be wholehearted in your thinking and perception; determine to become single-minded and focused toward the will and plan of God.
Double minded is defeat by installments.
All our thoughts must result in “YES” to the Holy Spirit.
Philippians 2:13 – God works IN us through His own will
For love and trust to exist at all, there must be free choice and free will. We can decide what we will become in partnership with the Holy Spirit.
The will is where we engage with Who God is deliberately. All breakthroughs must be followed up in the will. All movement comes when our will is in sync with God’s.
It’s only in the area of the will that response breaks down.
The biggest problem in the church right now is passivity. We are living from the outside in, when we need to be living from the inside out.
I’m as full as I can be right now, and I’m asking God to expand me.
If you have a language that allows for measure, then you also have a language that allows for mediocrity.
Sometimes repentance never gets beyond the change of opinion. Only the will submitted to God can produce real, lasting change.
Start praying “Lord be” rather than “Lord do”.
The real battle each day is; who do we give our will to?
Your job is to learn to be the beloved and to rest in that place.
The will is primarily a vehicle for choosing a relationship with God. Your will allows you to be absorbed into His pleasure and delight.
The will allows us to receive love, goodness and strength.
In breakthrough your will engages with how God sees you.
Behavior is the visible thing, but behind every behavior is a belief system. Always go to the root of the tree. What thought produced the action? What is empowering the will?
The will leads us to belief, and the believing transforms us to a place of obedience and trust.
Part of your expression of your will be joined to god’s, is that you will be rejoicing and giving thanks. If there’s an absence of joy and thanksgiving, the problem is the will.
The will partners with confession. Confession is where we agree with God and say the same thing.
The will engages with proclamation. There are situations where you need to announce who you are.
Your follow up must deliver you to a point of abiding. Develop your reclaimed territory, and EXPAND it. Col 3:10, John 15:7 (IF you abide - ask what you will, and I will do it).
ABIDE – to stay in a given place and dwell there with expectancy, resting with joy, relaxing into peace, and basking in the love of God. It is always connected to an experience of God’s nature. In the delight, comes a determination to STAY here. A real relationship with Christ is always determined by delight (Psalm 37:4).
