Transmitting God’s Power Pt. 3

Derek Prince emphasises the necessity of being part of a congregation, as outlined in the New Testament, where believers are expected to recognise and submit to church leadership. He warns against the dangers of isolation, likening some believers to mountain goats who stray from the herd without a shepherd. He cites Revelation 2-3, where messages are directed solely to churches, underscoring the importance of communal worship and accountability in the faith journey.

Prince further discusses the practice of laying on of hands, referencing Acts 8, where the apostles prayed for new believers to receive the Holy Spirit, illustrating that salvation can occur without the Holy Spirit's immediate reception. He highlights the role of laying on of hands in commissioning church servants, as seen in Acts 6, where the apostles appointed deacons to serve the community. Prince concludes by noting that true promotion in God's kingdom comes from starting as a servant, reflecting the biblical principle that humility precedes honour.
