Learning To Walk With God As One

Summary
This episode explores the essential process of spiritual growth for new believers and the importance of being integrated into a living, functioning Body of Christ. The speakers emphasize that Christianity is not an individual journey but a shared walk where believers are brought into oneness, trained to wait on the Lord, and taught by impartation—not just teaching. Small groups, relationships, and spiritual family dynamics are highlighted as the key environment where believers mature, learn to hear God, and develop genuine oneness in the Spirit. The episode stresses the supernatural nature of the Body of Christ and the deep need for relationship, impartation, and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Show Notes
- The problem of placing new believers into immediate church work.Many believers begin doing tasks before learning to walk with the Lord or being led by the Spirit.
- Learning to wait on the Lord.New believers must be trained in waiting on God, His Word, and His Spirit.
- The shift from individuality to oneness.God is moving His people from isolated spiritual lives into a connected Body where every joint supplies.
- Why small groups matter.Smaller gatherings foster relationship, impartation, safety, trust, and real spiritual growth.
- Impartation versus teaching.Growth happens through spiritual impartation, not just instruction.
- The supernatural nature of the Body.Structure alone won’t work—only the Holy Spirit brings unity and transformation.
- Being set into the Body by God.Believers are placed into spiritual family "as it pleases Him," not through personal choice or human organization.
- Challenges of relationships and spiritual dealings.God uses relationships, confrontation, and family dynamics to help believers grow.
- The importance of humility and openness.Believers must be willing to receive help, ask for help, and open their hearts to God and others.
