From the Desk of the Founder & President Rev Steven Francis Dear Beloved in Christ,

The Presence of God was like a thick cloud in the National Prophets Conference. The name of God was glorified and many who came testified the anointing upon all the speakers.

Warriors Training Camp, a monthly revival meeting was started with a handful of friends will enter its Ninth Year in 2016. God used Sis Lydia Owyong to organize the meetings and till today thousands have been ministered.

The Lord brought us (my wife and I) to England. It was a prophecy given to me in 1988 that the Lord will bring me to Europe. Last year, we went to minister in few churches and the Lord showed me wonderful revelations of England and about the end times.

I must thank God for our full-time staffs, Ms. Viji Torai (Admin), Mr. David Shawn Michael (Media), Mr. James Judah Diamante (Music) and Ms. Cynthia Liew (accounts) for their love of God and dedication. Special thanks to our Elders team and ministry volunteers and church members for an exciting journey together.

The greatest excitement was when Angeline and I travelled to Kuantan, Malaysia by motorcycle for ministry. She was brave enough and endured the long ride about 1100 kilometers both ways though it was not her first ride. The ride was such a spirit-led adventure. Since then, I have covered an average of 6000 kilometers by road with motorcycle and car.

We have planted new outreach ministries in Kuantan and Kluang, Malaysia.

I

greet you with the grace from Jesus our King! The grace of God and the godly prayers of the church have enabled us to do so much for the extension of the kingdom of God.

I thank the Lord for all and together we will continue to build His kingdom and bring glory to God!

This year is of much significance to me, as on September 27, it will be 30 years since I accepted Christ. Just a few months after my powerful conversion by an encounter with God, I started to preach and serve the Lord. When I look back at the years, it was purely the grace of God and His love for me, which strengthened me to pursue His will.

This year, the Lord brought me again to Northern Malaysia ministry, which I did 28 years ago. Many pastors were blessed. The Word and Presence of God strengthened the churches. All glory to God.

I thank the Lord for all the guest lecturers in College of Prophets and visiting ministers who ministered in our church, a special thank you to all of you.

Most of all, I thank the Lord Jesus Christ, who trusted me enough to anoint me for His purpose and empowered me

by His Spirit and Word. It is purely through His mercy and grace that I stand.

I thank the Lord for my family, who was gracious to release me to obey God in travelling overseas. I also thank God for my beautiful church family, Jesus My King and the God-fearing leadership team that took care of the ministry. In taking care of the flock, each of us was able to fulfill God’s purposes.

Almost all of the prophecies the Lord gave me when I was sixteen have come to pass. I am eagerly waiting for the fulfillment of the rest. The Lord has been faithful to His promises. He provided for my family with His providence and supplied all our needs.

Space will not be sufficient for me to mention everyone by name, but it takes so many people to build the ministry together. Each of these members is a gift from Jesus to build His Church.

This year, The College of Prophets Graduation is special. It is the Seventh Batch. God’s faithfulness has brought us through from the 1st Batch till now, and this stands as a testimony of the workings of God in this ministry. It was exciting to teach the students who were hungry for the Lord.

I thank God for the prayer and intercession team in our church that has brought much strength and deliverance everywhere I went, either alone or with the ministry team.

“When you increase in the Spirit, you prosper in your natural life, which will give you an edge to possess the land.”

and livestock. Laban wanted Jacob to multiply his livestock one more time before he left.

Rev Steven Francis

T

his year while we fasted and prayed as a church from January 1st to the 7th 2015, the Lord Jesus gave us a word, “INCREASE.” The moment the word INCREASE was mentioned, our mind tends to tilt towards financial gain.

People tend to think of God as a God who will give them all that they ask or want.

The Bible teaches us powerful revelatory truths about the word INCREASE. If you would saturate yourself in the Word of God, your spirit man will soak in the Word and produce a godly increase that will affect all areas of life.

Commanded to be Fruitful and Increase In Genesis 1:28, God commanded Adam and Eve, “Be fruitful and increase.” The word “increase” comes from the Hebrew word, ‘raba’ which gives a powerful meaning

4

to the word. It means to bring up, abundance, authority, enlarge, exceeding, nourish, and plenty.

One word from the Lord is all that you need to be where God wants you to be. The word of the Lord will align you to become the recipient of His directions. This brings us to understand that one act of obedience to the word of the Living Christ produces blessings of increase in every aspect of your life.

The Lord does not need to bless individual needs by name rather one word is enough to create a chain reaction of divine orientations.

The moment Jesus tells you, “I will bless you,” involves everything you need in life. A new strength of God’s grace will empower you to walk in His will and pleasure (Eph. 1:5,9; 3:16; 2 Tim. 2:1).

Today, make a commitment to become fruitful in the harvest.

Re-organize your priorities. Seek first the kingdom of God and all the

2015 HARVEST GLORY | INCREASE

things you need are taken care of by the Lord (Matt. 6:33). Deal with spiritual procrastination and the fear of trusting God. The great evangelist Billy Sunday once said, “Fear knocked at my door. Faith answered, and there was no one there.”

If you have lost your passion to serve God, consecrate yourself in the river of life. Too many people have ‘only an interest’ in their destiny. They ‘like’ to serve God and ‘want to’ flow in the gifts of the Holy Spirit and ‘wish’ that God would rapture them.

Without a burning passion for God, the fire of the Spirit cannot fall upon us. Without a pang of hunger on the things of God, heaven will not open its doors upon us. Cry out today that God will use you. All the training you have received must not go in vain.

Increase Supernaturally In Genesis 30:25-43, we read of the account of Jacob asking permission to leave Laban’s property with his two daughters, children,

Trusting upon God, he placed whitestriped sticks in front of the flocks as they came to drink water and in the same place the flocks bred.

We read of how God supernaturally increased the livestock of Jacob as he obeyed the Lord.

In Genesis 28, God made a promise that Jacob will be made a great nation. From that moment, the word of the Lord caused a chain reaction of blessings that made Jacob prosper no matter where he was. Certainly Jacob worked hard for the blessings and with the favor of God, he grew exceedingly and abundantly.

Deuteronomy 1:11, “May the Lord, the God of your ancestors, increase you a thousand times and bless you as he has promised!” When you obey in faith, God will prosper you in your work and business that you will have space and time to serve the Lord. Increase your faith and be blessed by the Lord.

Possess the Land Deuteronomy 8:1, “Be careful to follow every command I am giving you today, so that you may live and increase and may enter and possess the land the Lord promised on oath to your ancestors.”

When you increase in the Spirit, you prosper in your natural life, which will give you an edge to possess the land. Many are not able to possess what God has given to them, because of many distractions, which delays their obedience. Today, come before the Lord and beseech Him to empower you to possess your destiny.

When your inner man increases in spiritual strength (Eph. 6:10), you will be able to capture the visions of God in your heart and walk forward to possess the land.

Psalms 144:13-15, “Our barns will be filled with every kind of provision. Our sheep will increase by thousands, by tens of thousands in our fields; our oxen will draw heavy loads.

There will be no breaching of walls, no going into captivity, no cry of distress in our streets.

Blessed is the people of whom this is true; blessed is the people whose God is the Lord.”

When our hearts are given to honor God, He provides even the seed for us to become a blessing in the harvest. Amen! It is a principle of the harvest. God gets the glory in all. He provides the seed and multiplies the seed for harvest.

This obedience will increase the harvest of our righteousness. The very reason God is encouraging each one of us to obey Him. He welcomes each one of us to become fellow workers with Him in the field (1 Cor. 3:9).

We are held accountable to become good stewards of the graces imparted to our lives.

Respond to the call of the Spirit.

Be a warrior of the end times.

Increase Your Love 1 Thessalonians 3:12, “May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you.”

Increase Your Seed

I want to bless each of you that we will continue to grow and increase in the love of God to walk with Him and serve Him. Continue to develop a deeper love and passion for the lost and the people of God. Honor and love the Body of Christ.

2 Corinthians 9:10, “Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness.”

We are raised up by God for this purpose. That we will become God’s champion to push back the forces of darkness and redeem the lost for the glory of God!

1 John 2:27, “But as for you, the anointing (the sacred appointment, the unction) which you received from Him abides [permanently] in you; [so] then you have no need that anyone should instruct you. But just as His anointing teaches you concerning everything and is true and is no falsehood, so you must abide in (live in, never depart from) Him [being rooted in Him, knit to Him], just as [His anointing] has taught you [to do]. (AMP).

Grow in Your Salvation

As we have received the anointing from God, we must learn how to abide in it. Likewise, we must learn how to abide in the calling by growing in it. The more you are aware of your calling; the seed in you will grow. God will shape you towards the calling He has called you.

n September 27th, 1985 at eight in the evening, I accepted Jesus as my Saviour and immediately I had a powerful encounter with the Lord. For almost 2 hours I wept before the Lord repenting of my sins. A big television screen appeared in front me and I saw the sins I committed. At each scene, I cried and asked the Lord to forgive me.

On the same day, the Holy Spirit came upon me and I stammered in tongues (Isaiah 28:11).

A seed from heaven fell into my heart and I heard the Lord’s voice that I have been called to serve Him. I wept before the Lord, as I was just fifteen years old. The servant of God who prayed for me prophesied that God has called me as a prophet.

My brother Sadhu Sundar Selvaraj, mentored me in the walk of the Spirit. He taught me how to pray earnestly in the morning and how to fast. My brother’s supernatural encounters with God inspired me to seek the Lord with tears and fastings.

Space will not allow me in this article to share in depth, the path which the Lord brought me over these many years. He prepared me the hard way – through a path of thorn and thistles learning to walk by faith and not by sight. The Lord held my hand strong, empowering me

by His grace.

Many pastors have asked me the lessons I have learned in having served God for thirty years from the day of salvation and twenty-four years in full time ministry.

I desire to share some lessons I learnt in this journey with the Lord so that you may be encouraged and not lose heart (2 Cor. 4:1).

Grow in Your Calling

Therefore, since through God’s mercy we have this ministry, we do not lose heart.

2 Corinthians 4:1

Therefore, my brothers and sisters, make every effort to confirm your calling and election. For if you do these things, you will never stumble (2 Peter 1:10).

The salvation of God opens the door of heaven, which many are ignorant of God. You are born again in the Spirit. When you grow in your salvation, you grow in the ability to flow in the anointing. It is like building up your muscles.

Some thoughts to assist the growth of your calling will be to read books relating to the call of God, develop inner and external leadership skills, sharpen your gifts by using them no matter how small or insignificant it may be. Attend seminars and fellowship with like-minded people. Learn from the giants through books and audio-visual materials.

Some of the ways of the spiritual disciplines, which I practiced from then to now, will also help you to build your spiritual stamina. Intensive Prayer, Meditation of the Word, regular fasting, deal with the flesh, discover Intimacy with God, hunger to know the Ways of God, cultivate spirituality, build up your faith, prayer regularly in tongues and desire spiritual encounters with God.

I met an old seasoned pastor when I was fifteen and enthusiastically told me of my desire to serve God full-time ministry. For about fifteen minutes I was rattling away of the different ways I desired to serve God.

After listening to me patiently, he told me, “Young man, as you are young, you may say you want to serve God. By the time, you reach my age all your fire will be gone.” In my heart, I said, “Get thee behind me, Satan.”

That day, I made a commitment to God, “the older I get, the brighter I will burn!” Satan will create enough of discouragements to steal the fire of God from your heart, be watchful in the spirit. Guard the anointing of God. Do not let anybody talk you out of a fervent spirit.

Some helpful pointers to keep your fire burning: keep your passion alive, hunger for the gifts of the Spirit, desire to hear the Voice of God, live a God-directed life, Do not lose the passion for the lost, empower others through ministry, and cultivate humility.

Let God Lead You

Ministry is about people. Love for people is developed on your knees when you pray and intercede for them. Travail for the lost and intercede for your loved ones. The anointing will maximize when you use it to minister to people.

Psalm 32:8, “I [the Lord] will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with My eye upon you. (AMP)

Learn to honor divine relationships that God has connected you with. Spend time with your family, raise people up for the harvest, take advantage of no one, walk in love and humility, and demonstrate strength and leadership.

God will lead you only in the areas you allow Him to lead.

As you trust in Him and fully surrender, you will continue to grow in the grace of God. He will not fail you at all times.

During this walk of faith, you will need to deal with fear in all matters, follow the promptings of the Spirit, listen to the whisper of the Holy Spirit, obey the voice of the Lord, follow the Lord wherever He leads you - down the valleys and up the hills, walk by faith and not by sight, conquer wilderness training, and fear not the devil.

He is the Senior Pastor of Tabernacle of Holiness, Kampar and was the key person to head the team of pastors in organizing all the night rallies, pastors leadership training and the combined churches and youth meetings.

During the first night meeting, Pastor Steven’s message on God’s faithfulness, healing, and his personal testimonies touched the hearts of many. During the altar call, many came and were healed and delivered. There was a breakthrough in the atmosphere and we could

During the second and final night rally, many came to hear, see and be touched by the power of God. Pastor Steven shared a simple message on healing but when he began to pray for people, the presence of God filled the place.

We also had pastors leadership training in the mornings till later noon and combined churches meetings at Kampar Methodist Church during evenings. Every night meeting was uniquely crafted

by God and the messages were powerful.

Pastor Johnson’s son, Bro. Jeremy brought us on an adventure ride to Kampar waterfalls. As the car couldn’t go up further, we had to walk up. It was muddy, very slippery and it felt very similar to a rock climbing experience. At night, Pastor Johnson brought us out for a thanksgiving Chinese dinner and the food was superb.

On Sunday Morning, Pastor ministered in Pastor Johnson’s Church, there was strong prophetic word released for the region, the Church, the pastors and leaders. After lunch Bro. James shared the Word to all the youths, Bro. David Shawn and Bro. John Vinod joined him to minister and prayed with all the youths.

United kingdom

By Rev Steven Francis

By Rev Steven Francis

About 11 years ago, while praying in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, I had a vision. I saw myself going to smaller churches and fellowships and ministering the Word of God to them.

Prophectic Meeting in New Life Church premises I thank the Lord for bringing me to minister in United Kingdom according to His will prophesied in 1988.

Sis. Franka Nielsen, one of our College of Prophets graduates moved back to her home town in UK. She organised a special prophetic meeting and many attended including pastors from different churches.

The Lord Jesus asked me a question, “Would you go to the smaller churches and minister to them, though there will be just 3 or 4 people?” I asked, “Why do you want me to go there, O Lord?”

Jesus replied, “Because I will be amongst them!”

I cried and dedicated myself again to the Lord, not to allow fame and success to cloud my judgments in responding to an invitation to a smaller town or church as long as it is an assignment from God. In 2005, I ministered in Kuantan, the state capital of Pahang, the third largest state in Malaysia. It is near the mouth of the Kuantan River and faces the South China Sea. The Lord brought me to minister to a handful of people who are seeking for the new anointing of God for the endtimes. The churches in Kuantan are in need of revival. The Lord sent me there to bring the Word of the Lord and revival to the believers there.

This was my third visit there and people were ministered by the power of God as the Holy Spirit revealed their hearts. The Presence of God was strong among the people.

The Lord released His River of Life and touched many who came. This was the second time, I travelled there with my wife Angeline in my motorcycle. We will have regular revival meetings in Kuantan to raise a strong community for Jesus.

The anointing to teach the Word of God came powerfully on me. All felt the powerful presence of God and the atmosphere in the room changed to the glory of God. I thank the Lord for Sis. Franka Nielsen Meeting with Senior Leader - Bro. Richard Wightman of New Life Church, Milton Keynes. I spent about one hour speaking and praying with the Senior Leader of a fast growing church with multiple campuses. As we prayed together, we shared each other’s spiritual concerns about ministry and the state of the church.

The Lord showed me in the spirit many wonderful revelations about Bro Richard and his ministry. The prophecy lasted for forty minutes. Next year in 2016, I am invited to minister in New Life Church.

Ps John Daniel and I designed the curriculum so that leaders will be trained for the end time harvest in Europe.

Taiwan

By Cassel Lau I thank The Lord that we were able to attend this mission trip as a family and together with our former COP classmates. This is not our first mission trip but this trip has engraved in us a lasting impression and impacted our lives greatly. How the team was assembled is still a puzzle to us. With our very limited ability to communicate in Mandarin, our faith were stretched to trust in the Lord every step of the way. It was indeed a real challenge to minister in Mandarin.

To our delight, my son was also experiencing a touch from The Lord. He is usually active and playful in church but while Pastor Steven was preaching, he was just sitting still and listening to the message throughout the whole service. I praise and thank God for the work He is doing in my son. Amazingly, I also observed that he is now more sensible and mature towards the things of God and there has been a vast improvement and interest towards the Chinese language.

During the trip, we saw the mighty hand of God moving powerfully amongst us. As Pastor Steven ministered prophetically to the churches in Taiwan,

the word of God brought conviction to the pastors and leaders and they led the whole church in repentance before the Lord. People were weeping and seeking forgiveness and God ministered to His people and brought healing and restoration to the church.

I also had a personal encounter. During one of the nights, my family and I were in our hotel room playing English worship songs but I kept hearing the songs in Chinese. I was surprised because I knew that my husband didn’t keep Chinese songs in his playlist. I went closer to confirm and it was indeed an English song, but I was hearing the song in Chinese. Two nights later, I was awakened about 2am and heard Chinese worship songs again. I knew The Lord was trying to tell me something.

I praise The Lord for the ministry experience and for using us to minister and prophesy into the lives of His people. The knowledge we had gleaned from COP was put to good use indeed. This ministry is not about us, it’s all about the love of our Abba Father. He loves us, and He loves his people in Taiwan too, and wants to set them free so that they too can learn to walk victoriously in the divine purpose and destiny that God has for them.

All glory be to God! Amen.

Rivers of Life Taiwan Co-ordinator Ms Chelsea Miracle

Throughout this trip, I could see the grace of God manifested in our lives and team mates. As we humbled ourselves, submit to and avail ourselves to do His bidding, all our shortcomings were overshadowed by the power of God at work. Through us, the Lord brought healing, deliverance, restoration and affirmation to those seeking the Lord for directions in their personal lives and ministries.

The power of God was so tangible, as the worship exalted God and people sang loudly with banners and dance.

The phrase that was in everyone’s mouth was, “This year’s conference is more powerful than all the rest put together.” Glory to God. Even the speakers agreed that the Presence of God that manifested in this year’s National Prophets Convention is different. The Glory of God was stronger. The anointing upon the speakers and the depth of the anointing was greater through the sessions.

Every night, the altar was full of people slain by the power of the Holy Spirit. The response at the altar was great that even the participating guest pastors were called in to pray for the people. Pastors from different nations joined together as One Church and ministered.

God’s presence was felt when the Lord led Dr. Amos Jayarathnam to pray for the nation of Singapore and the unity of the churches. Pastors were called to the stage and the spirit of travail came upon all as Dr. Amos led the intercession. Truly the Lord manifested His Glory amongst us.

We are looking forward for a greater manifestation of the Lord’s grace in 2016.

Pastor Samuel Gift ministered powerfully the message not to turn away from the warnings of God as He has promised once more He will not only shake the earth but also the heavens in these last days. God is not angry to destroy, but wanting to pour out His Spirit on all people. The minds and hearts of warriors gathered at the camp were challenged to build their characters on authentic love, to be made new in our attitudes of our minds – to declutter our thoughts and seed our mind with God’s thoughts, and hearts fully surrendered to God for life transformation.

CHURCH CAMP

Pastor Steven Francis charged the warriors present to take the spiritual authority given to us. Many were touched and moved to renew their commitment as the Holy Spirit impressed upon the minds and hearts of the warriors to the new thing God’s doing in these last days.

During the morning devotions, the warriors connected in small groups for a time of knowing the Word of God and sharing testimonies of God’s amazing work in their life.

The warriors also competed in games and enjoyed themselves to their hearts content. Everyone competed to win but one team rose to the top: “The Spirit of Victory. We had lots of fun and laughter during the games and the bonding was priceless.

All praise to God for the fruitful Gathering of Warriors 2015. So “Let the weak say, “I am a warrior.”

The Call

The Values

“God has called me to teach and train the present generation of prophetic company who will be sold out for Him. Some of these people will be called by God into the full time ministry, while many will remain as prophetic ambassadors in the community, releasing the Word of the Lord to the people.

The Church was birthed forth in prophecy and must carry a prophetic spirit in her message and mission to the lost. I have been called to trumpet the last call to the Church before the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ”

College of Prophets provides Word-based training by qualified ministers with proven ministries. These ministers have established ministries and have trained thousands around the world. They are ministry practitioners with an anointing to build the Church for Jesus.

Rev Steven Francis With this burden, a team of ministers who are highly trained by the Lord have been assembled with the same purpose - “to equip the saints and to build up the Body of Christ (Eph. 4:12).

Rev Steven Francis has been relationally connected to each of these men of God for many years, some of whom have spoken wisdom into his life. All the trainers are mentors to their people and have been in the mission field for many years. They bring wisdom, both in field work and church ministry.

The school’s training is based on three values needed for the prophetic training and ministry: COMPETENCY in the knowledge of God’s word and the subjects pertaining to the various disciplines of ministry.

INTEGRITY in their personal walk with God and their conduct of ministry.

ACCOUNTABILITY to the Lord, to the Church, and to fellow ministers by abiding and operating within the limits of the Word, the will of God, and the ethical frameworks for the prophetic ministry.

College of Prophets aims to train warriors of Jesus for these end times who will hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches and become overcomers!

ALEC CHEW Jesus My King Church I would like to thank Jesus for directing me to take up the course on Diploma in Prophetic Ministry, and I did wonder if I could persevere till the end. But I learnt that God is good and whatever he starts in you he will surely bring it to completion.

The lecturers were GOD-sent – they are gifted teachers, and very anointed. They shared their rich experiences and there were so many practical lessons that I learnt. I looked forward to attend the lectures, because they were presented in a very interesting way. We enjoyed the friendships and the joy of experiencing the presence of God. I especially like the lecture on the Book of Daniel, when Rev Steven Francis expounded and unlocked some prophetic truths about the End Times. Current world events unfolding before us confirm prophecies revealed to us in the Holy Bible particularly in the books of Revelation and Daniel.

important value I learnt at the College of Prophets is to have the Fear of The Lord.

CHRISTINE LIM KAH YANG Riverlife Church The time spent in College of Prophets since 4 Mar 2015 has been rich and wonderful to me. Besides enlarging my circle of like-minded friends who share the deep hunger in the pursuit of God, I am blessed with more insight into the development of a mature disciple of Christ which includes moments of personal and deep reflections, spiritual preparation of the Inner Heart and spiritual listening. The teachings also equipped me with better understanding of the various aspects relating to the prophetic ministry and stir in me a stronger desire to stay deeply rooted in the Word of God, and yearning to have more intentional time of Worship of our good God and in the intercession for the saints.

It is so true that the edge of Christianity is to live each of our lives in view of the fact that Jesus our Saviour is coming back again which is the chief hope of the believer!

AMANDA QUEK Paya Lebar Methodist Church It has been few months since God graciously provided me with this wonderful opportunity to study at College of Prophets. Looking back, I am extremely grateful for this privilege to spend the time doing the assignments, book reviews, fasting and praying as well as journaling. It is an amazing journey of learning because the teachings are so good and profound and I have so much to learn and to apply.

I do not know His long-term plans for me. But, I am very sure that all the learning at College of Prophets will be used for the advancement of His Kingdom. God is a faithful in the midst of everything – He revealed His plans one step at a time and connected me with so many brothers and sisters in Christ. The divine connections and the prophecies that I received after attending COP just marveled me. I realized that God was simply bringing like-minded people to cross my path. I received so many blessings, favors, helps and breakthroughs these few months.

The greatest encounter is experiencing God’s love for me and I am excited to know more and more of Him. He surprises me by using me to do things that are very new to me. I learned that it is not about ability but availability.

I look forward to even deeper relationship with Him after COP.

My days at College Of Prophets have been awesome, being surrounded by great teachers and students has been such a blessing. I am so glad that I joined COP and it is surely a divine appointment. The college has provided me with new insights into God’s mind and plan over my life.

The teaching at COP has greatly impacted my life to understand the word of God and to operate in the supernatural realm. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Rev Francis and all the teachers for imparting their anointing and knowledge over my life. I would greatly encourage students from various churches to join COP to serve more effectively to establish our heavenly fathers kingdom in this planet.

Each lecturer is anointed and Spirit-filled, imparting the Word of God with wisdom and passion. Their personal testimonies inspired me and gave me faith to ask and believe God for more. I enjoyed my lessons, grew in things of the Spirit and spiritual discipline. Much was imparted during the course and ample notes were given. I was “watered” and blessed with desire for more.

I want to join the Advanced Diploma and felt that I would benefit from a refresher course hence I signed up for COP 7.

There were some changes and some topics were taught by different lecturers who taught from a different perspective. It is indeed a blessing to be able to go through the course again, this time without the pressure of submitting assignments. It gave me more time to go through the lecture notes and ponder over what was taught.

My only regret is that I missed a month of lessons as I was abroad.

We all need to be equipped to do God’s end-time work. I strongly recommend this holistic and spiritually enriching course to any child of God who desires to grow in Him. Thank you Pastor Steven, lecturers and COP staff.

EMMANUEL & ERIN GURUNG Jesus My King Church When Pastor Steven asked us whether we would be signing up for COP Batch 7, my wife replied right away, “Of course”! Then he asked who would be taking care of our 3 kids while we both attended the course and she answered this time, “God will take care of everything!” I remembered Pastor Steven replying with a loud “Amen and Hallelujah”!

The in-depth teaching by different pastors bolstered by constant book reviews and assignments ensured that it was a two-way learning between the mentors and the students instead of just the

more disciplined in my prayer life, fasting and reading the word of God. As I grew to a new level of intimacy with Him, I can experience hearing from God more accurately and trusting Him to lead me through ‘cross-roads’ that come my way.

That decision that we took couldn’t have been better!

I appreciate Pastor Steven Francis and his team of lecturers who have been so committed to deliver the Word and sharing their life experiences. I also enjoyed the fellowship of my classmates and thank God for these new found friends from COP7.

Classes consisted of a variety of topics which also included sessions for which the pastors will prophesy to us. Two of my favourite topics that I found extremely helpful were ‘Soul Care Management’ and the Book of Revelation’. These sessions gave me an extremely valuable insight and were very easy to understand. I would definitely recommend this course to those who are thinking twice about signing up. Think no further and sign up right away!

FRANCIS LEONG FOOK KEE Jesus My King Church 2015 has been a year of significance and change for my wife and me. As a response to God’s revealed direction, we signed up for the COP course batch 7 with the aim to deepen our walk with the Lord and to be equipped to serve. One initial concern I had was that I would miss lessons because of the fact that I was working on shift duties.

However I decided to trust God and asked Him to take care of the attendance aspect.

After 3 months into the course, through a miraculous turn of events in my workplace, the Lord granted me favour such that I was transferred to another department where I no longer need to work on shift duties. This made it possible for me to have a 100% attendance! Praise the Lord!

I thank God for Pastor Steven Francis and his team of lecturers for the generous impartation of their deep subject knowledge and inspiring sharing of their life experiences. Another aspect I am thankful for is their humility and patience shown in providing guidance to help us understand and apply the learnt lessons. The assignments and reading program both built discipline and insight into our lives.

If I were to summarize what COP is all about, it would be that: it

is not a platform for us to chase after prophetic gifts but one that provides the stimulus and guidance to build up our inner spirit-man and to prepare our heart’s condition, which, having done so, the Lord will supernaturally deposit His gifts into our lives, making us His worthwhile warriors in the end times.

JUDDY WONG Riverlife Church I am grateful to God for leading me to COP in the 2015 Prophetic Conference. I had the desire to be better equipped and empowered in my spiritual life and to seek for a direction in life. As I look into the available courses, I was delighted to discover that COP covered the very areas that I desired to grow in.

Throughout the course, I was so blessed by all the dedicated lectures who unreservedly imparted to us their vast knowledge, valuable insights and supernatural experiences that provoked and challenged us to pursue God and His kingdom through disciplines such as prayer, worship, fasting , meditating on God’s word, waiting upon God, hearing God’s voice and being obedient to do His will. It has been an honour to sit at their feet.

The assignments given, though challenging, helped to stretch my understanding and pushed me further to be discipline in my daily life. The practical application will stay with me forever. In the end,

LYNN PUAR WHATT NGOH Jesus My King Church I want to thank the Lord, for the reality of such moments that allow me to apply what have been taught in COP. COP is life-transforming and I am so blessed to have various godly teachers who walk with God to impart their life to us. The curriculum in COP ensures that we conform to a lifestyle of spiritual disciplines and through the guidance of Pastor Steven, I have been “revamped” internally. I still have much to learn, much to deal with in my flesh and I am humbled at God goodness and mercy.

I have learnt about praying in tongues, prophetic protocols, prophetic activation.

Previously, I was only aware about the aspect of edifying of our spirit man through speaking in tongues but there is more than that. I have practised the spiritual disciplines daily and begin to hear God more and in different ways, thus also more sensitive to Him. Lastly, I commend that our Principal, Rev Steven Francis is a God fearing person, a man of the spirit, a passionate lover of God word. To God be the glory and Hosanna in the Highest!

NAYUDU MANIMEKALAI Paya Lebar Methodist Church I thank The Lord, God Almighty for enabling me to pursue and complete the Diploma in Prophetic Ministry Course through COP. I have found it to be both a challenging and enriching experience.

My objectives and reasons for doing the course has been to grow and walk in deeper and closer intimacy with The Lord; in knowing Him and making Him known. The foundational theological truths taught helped establish and reinforce God’s Word and truth in me, and as I spent time with Him through the spiritual disciplines of fasting, praying, spending time with The Lord in worship, mediation of His Word and especially praying in tongues, my inner man has

SARAH GASON Pentecostal Church of Singapore My hunger and thirst for God and for the supernatural led me to enrol in the College of Prophets (COP) 2015. The Lord is stretching me to accelerate in my spiritual maturity through COP. The teachings from the various anointed lecturers spurred me to know God more and to be established in His word.

Their passion, humility and great influence have lifted me to new levels of a disciplined walk with God. Lessons are taught with biblical truths from a prophetic perspective so that we can be used by God for end-time purposes.

During the training, I felt the urgency to re-align myself to the destiny that God has willed for me. COP has helped me to develop a greater sensitivity in the Spirit and to be able to perceive the move of God in the spiritual realm. I have experienced the overcoming victory of God, and now have faith to believe Him for things which I could not possibly believe in the past.

I thank God for guiding me into ‘College Of Prophets’ and for such an enriching learning experience. I have enjoyed a good spread of spiritual feast throughout these 8 months of training here. There were much sharing and exchanging of knowledge, fun, laughter and great friendships to keep for life.

The hours of prayer, fasting and the discipline of time spent reading the Word have stirred up the hunger in my spirit to crave for more knowledge and the sacred things of God. I want to thank every lecturer for sharing their field experience, vision, and knowledge unselfishly. All of them are so anointed and yet humble and gracious to us.

The impartation and anointing of the Holy Spirit has help me to achieve higher level of spiritual maturity and I look forward to pursue God’s calling in my spiritual journey.

I want to express my gratitude to Rev Steven Francis for his encouragement, prayer, prophecy and selfless teaching throughout my training at ‘College Of Prophets’.

This verse spoke about me attending the College of Prophets.

CONGRATS! from the Faculty Dr Carol Yeo

Angeline Francis Dear graduands, Congratulations for successfully completing the College of Prophets Diploma course. With God’s grace and strength, all your hard work has paid off. As you step into the next phase of your life to fulfill the destiny that God has for you, here are few pointers to remember: •

•

•

•

Have confidence in Christ. John 15:5 says, “Apart from Me, you can do nothing”. In order to succeed in anything, we must place our faith in Christ, not in us as when we attempt to do things in the strength of our flesh, we struggle to succeed.

Congratulations to the Class of 2015, College of the Prophets.

2015 is probably one of the most significant prophetic years in a long time – with the occurrence of the blood moons, the Shemitah Year and last but not the least, our nation’s SG50 Jubilee. No one knows when the King is returning but surely it’s near. Battles are won and lost at the eleventh hour; more than ever before, it’s time for a clear message from heaven. May this be a time of release for the true prophetic voice in this hour to be heard – and may each of you experience a continual prophetic flow that will be like a heat-seeking missile hitting its target every time!

Desire what God wants you to be and enjoy the process. We are in the process of becoming perfected by God. As God moulds us, it can be painful but receive His affirmation, knowing that you are changing and pressing on in becoming all that He desires you to be.

Ps Rupert Lim

Be bold for the Lord and see yourself as a winner through Him. In Romans 8:37, Paul assures us that through Christ Jesus, we are more than conquerors.

Sometimes our faith is shaken when trials come.

But when we have so much of faith in God’s love for us, no matter what comes against us, we know deep inside that we are more than conquerors and through Him we will succeed.

I am sure the past 8 months have been truly enriching and that you have received much from the various courses, gaining tremendous insights and experiences along the way. There must have been moments when you felt overwhelmed as you tried to juggle the many other responsibilities in your life, and yet by the grace of God you pressed on and made it to graduation. I commend you for your hard work and for staying committed to what the Lord initiated for you when he led you to enrol for this course.

Know who you are in Christ. Accept God’s love for you so that you can love and accept yourself and others. Start enjoying yourself, wherever you are right now, towards your journey in fulfilling God’s destiny for you.

I pray the blessings of God on your onward journey with the Lord. God bless you all.

Heartiest congratulations to the class of 2015 of The College of Prophets on your graduation!

May you continue to keep steadfast on this path of love and service that He has carved out for you, pacing yourself each leg of the way, with the aim of finishing the race well. Remember that His grace will always be more than sufficient for you.

Rev Isaiah Mahendran Dear Graduands,

My warmest congratulations on your graduation! I trust you have been greatly blessed through your studies at the College of Prophets. You have received, from your eminent lecturers and spiritual mentors, prophetic revelations and fresh insights into Biblical truths. You have been uplifted through corporate worship and prayer, and strengthened and comforted through fellowship with course mates. You have experienced wonderful breakthroughs, restoration of your spirit and a closer walk with God. You have grown deeper in your understanding of yourself and of how you ought to live in preparation for the imminent return of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I believe that you would also have been reminded of the injunction, “Behold, to OBEY is better than sacrifice and to heed than the fat of rams” (1 Sam 15:22). Obedience is far from easy. To obey requires a determined spirit and disciplined mind, diligent effort and daily denial of the flesh, and above all, a heart that is dedicated to God. As warriors in the army of God we are exhorted to “obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29) just as soldiers in the army obey their Commander. It is oftentimes harder to obey in the routine of daily life, in fulfilling our duties and responsibilities in private life than when we are called to perform in the arena of public life. But it is when we prove faithful in the little things, that we can graduate and go on to bigger things. Just as you have graduated from the College of Prophets, I pray that you will succeed in the Lord’s school of life, wherever it may be, whether at home, at work in the public or private sector, in the local church, national or international body of believers, overseas mission field, or elsewhere.

Congratulations on your graduation.

You have spent much time and sacrifice to finish this course and I am indeed honored to have played a part in helping you achieve this.

This College has helped to prepare all of you for the race set before you. The Lord encourages each and every one of you not to let your guard down but to continue to bear one another in this common race that we all strive to finish.

The Lord watches over us and ensures that all of us receive whatever is needed for excellence. This race is not in vain, but it is to fulfill the call that upon each and every one of your lives. Press on! Never give up!

May I also encourage you then to look at one another as fellow watchmen, as fellow warriors, upholding each other with love and prayer and in truth, to look out for each other’s success, and to guard each other against the onslaught of the enemy.

May His abundance be found in each one of our lives.

He said, “Hear now My words: If there is a prophet among you,

I, the LORD, shall make Myself known to him

in a vision I shall speak with him in a dream.

Numbers 12:6

May the Spirit of the LORD rest upon you, “the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord” (Isaiah 11:2).

From the Faculty

College of Prophets

CONGRATS! The COP Faculty

Viji Torai COP Manager Welcome to College of Prophets

Where we were and where we are going…

Since 2011, our college has made enormous strides in creating awareness of prophetic ministries. While our College is known for its grounded teaching of the Word of God, we would like to acknowledge the distinguished number of prophets and pastors who partner with us to bring with them not only their prophetic anointing and spiritual gifts but also the rich experiences they carry.

Our core value – to be spirit filled, grounded in the Word of God, activate prophetic gifting, stirring the faith, empowering to fulfil the call, a warrior worshipper and a prayer warrior.

Without our core values, College of Prophets could easily be a College much like any other. Instead, we continue to grow, learn and pray together in the Word of God. It is our customary practice that beginning of every year, our church, Jesus My King Church sets aside the first seven days in corporate fasting and prayer: to receive the assignments for the year, to be empowered, to be equipped to fulfil the visions and to intimately love God even more.

Our College not only offers the students the knowledge of the word but also the activation of spiritual gifts and hands on experiences to do ministry effectively. Thereby putting into practice immediately what is learnt. Above all, the bottom line is to become who we are called to be.

In the past five years, we are attracting more students from all walks of life and we see a steady increase of married couples studying together. All Glory to God.

2015 HARVEST GLORY | INCREASE

The increased interest in prophetic ministry is a testimony of the visibility of College of Prophets. We continue to develop our strategic planning yearly in new areas of calling and revelation from the Lord for this time and season. We are working to identify specific initiatives in each of these areas so that we can position our College to improve in the awareness of prophetic ministry through our students, as an outreach. The curriculum is personally and carefully planned by the Principal, Rev Steven Francis yearly with consistency and reverence.

I passionately believe that what College of Prophets offers is the core of what it means in the equipping and transformation of lives for God’s Kingdom purpose. Our students develop the discipline in exercising the gifts of the Spirit and to walk in the fullness of the destiny that God has called them.

We hope that we have inspired you to keep on learning.

Bringing forward with you the valuable lessons you have picked up from College of Prophets… this is your special recipe for your success.

Congratulations, Batch 7. We are so very proud of you. Enjoy this momentous day and, as you go out into the world, please keep us in your hearts. You will be in ours.
