Invitation to Warrior Intercession

Christine Casten Executive Director of TWC

Powerful choices make a warrior. Warriors decide to move forward, embrace the landscape before them, and determine to set their faces as flint to take and hold kingdom ground. Our warrior nature contains our internal code: what it looks like for us, in The Warrior Class, to live as warriors. This means we embrace all opportunities for development and learning process. We know in the battle, we rise to the level of our training...so we choose training at the highest level.

For us, the journey is focused. The process of growth is a lifestyle we internalize, not for the sake of learning in and of itself,

but to become Kingdom warriors. TWC warriors seek to be fierce...the Gideon’s army and David’s Mighty Men who embrace courage, hold significant ground and become unshakable in the clash between two kingdoms. For we know, there is a world of difference between saying you are a warrior and actually being one.

ADVERSITY IS ABOUT TAKING YOUR INNER TERROTIRY AND RECLAIMING IT FOR JESUS. GRAHAM COOKE FROM: PERFECTING THE ART OF BOUNCING BACK

Page 2: frontline news - twclass.org · frontline news In this issue: Christine Casten: Invitation to Warrior Intercession Allison & Christine: The New Flow of Intercession TWC Training:

The Warrior Class identifies with three major territories, or identities we will hold: Raising Warriors, Intercession and New Testament Prophetic as applied to Intercession. As a culture based on values and principles, our Kingdom permissions are found embedded in each proclamation. Two are highlighted here. VALUE: INTERCESSION THAT CREATES AN ATMOSPHERE OF INTIMACY AND MAJESTY WHERE THE PERMISSIONS AND PROVISIONS OF HEAVEN COME TO EARTH. Principle: In intimate relationship with God, we discover what Jesus and the Spirit are praying and agree with them in intercession. Since the beginning and continuing forward, intercession serves as the foundation for our community. Graham opens space for us to prepare the landscape and come along side him in his events and projects: real time opportunities to partner with our kingdom assignments. Our special forces role: to prepare the ground and partner with the permissions and promises God releases over our prayer focuses. Can you imagine the sound of heaven hitting earth when those promises and permissions

hit the ground in that place or project? Today, a call is being issued. You have a powerful choice before you. You have the choice to step into Warrior Intercession. You have the invitation to release a shock wave of intercession throughout the lands and people these names and places touch...Graham, Brilliant Perspectives, Brilliant TV, Brilliant Book House, Anaheim, and The Warrior Class. Will you upgrade intimacy and worship so you align with what heaven is praying? Will you quiet your spirit in a place of rest, moving beyond your circumstances, to effect change in the lives of others? Will you stand, courageous and fierce, as an army of warriors moving with the momentum of heaven behind you to see territory taken and established? Will you risk stretching beyond your comfort zone and sacrifice any remaining complacency to allow yourself to more fully partner with bringing heaven to earth? This powerful choice is yours to make.

The New Flow of TWC Intercession The Game is Changing!

Allison Bown Christine Casten As most of you know, Graham is traveling less these days and while we still want to give him excellent coverage before and during those events, we’re also targeting other areas for intercession. Graham is in a process of reinvention once again, moving more into apostolic and advisory roles to national and international training organizations in the secular and Christian world. He continues to consult with major ministries and do a handful of events. Add to all of that, the continuing reinvention of Brilliant in every department and our venture into Brilliant TV as a mentoring forum. It’s an exciting time, but a significant shift. Graham is moving away from a format that has been familiar for over 40 years and into a completely different style of teaching that requires a new approach to the creation of his messages. He is devoting huge amounts of time to learning all of the upgrades needed to step into this new level of inheritance. After a collaboration of Graham with Allison and Allison with Christine, we all believe that it’s time to shift our flow of intercession for Graham. The good news is, it’s as easy as 1-2-3... 1. The team at Brilliant Perspectives will now provide the initial Prayer Points for events and key areas of intercession. These will be given to the TWC community in special emails as soon as they are developed and followed up on the TWC Facebook page and Intercession Updates. TWCers craft their prayers from these Prayer Points and begin praying. 2. TWC members can voluntarily contribute any additional intel, dreams or prophetic insights that emerge as you pray. You will be given a date and a point person to which you can submit any additional, refined intel that you receive if you wish to do so. Guidelines for submissions will be posted on the TWC website. Kindly do NOT send your intel to Brilliant Perspectives directly. 3. Additional Intel will be sent by Karleigh Wood, Director of Intercession to Brilliant Perspectives for the team there to further consider prior to an event (or for a particular ministry focus). The team at Brilliant will consider the intel gathered already for Aglow and Anaheim as we initiate this new flow. Thank you to all who have contributed to those! You’ll be seeing our Prayer Points for those events soon. Thank you for your heart and passion to pray for Graham, Theresa and everyone at Brilliant! Your prayers are highly valued and are key in all of us going higher, staying healthy and thriving in the clash between two kingdoms. With joy and appreciation, Allison & Christine

Check your Training Focus for Dates

After completion of Level 1 and 2 training, a variety of options open for you. These options are called Advanced Training Modules (ATM). These modules vary in focus and scope and include modified versions of the old Levels 3 and 4. And guess what? We continue to create more training resources all the time. Here is a peak at one of the ATMs!

Your Relationship with God - From your intimacy, powerfully manifesting His true nature your world. - Increase in awareness and connection with Christ in you. - Seeing all of life in the context of relationship with God & others, not merely in terms of function and service.

Your Inner Atmosphere - Greater consistency and resiliency no matter what is occurring. - Increase in inner stillness and focus (less "noise in your head"). - Greater clarity in hearing His voice. - Activating and responding with your will, rather than reacting immediately through emotions. Elevated Perspective - A first response of magnifying God, rather than magnifying circumstances. - Seeing God's perspective, rather than working from an earth-bound, problem-solving stance.

Confidence - Greater confidence in your True Identity now than during Level 1. - Being more restful because of increased confidence in God's true nature. - Confidence in God's strength & continuing love for you in weakness. Lifestyle - Being God-conscious has become part of your daily life. - Actively giving voice to the responses of your inner man in worship and proclamation. - Thanksgiving, rejoicing and worship are how you think and live, not an occasional event. - Demonstration of committed behavior, moving in the opposite spirit to other people's poor actions. Identity - Increase in seeing yourself as big as God sees you to be. - Actively choosing to show up as who you are, regardless of other's behavior. - Experiencing upgrades and expansion in your identity in a way that creates a deeper level of commitment to living from who you are (& are becoming).

This month we are highlighting:

Manifesting Your Spirit

Outcomes At the end of this Advanced Training Module, these are the outcomes we desire to see:

ABIDING

This month our community will focus on the Key Territory of Abiding. Learning to live from the inside out and not allow the outside in is crucial to the overcoming lifestyle we are designed to live in Christ. This secret place involves intimacy, rest, protection, anointing and refreshment. Some litmus test questions:

Am I living from my soul (think about what I am losing) or am I living from my spirit (think about what I am gaining)? What am I more aware of? His presence or circumstances?

How can we live the habitational life in Christ with more fullness? I also encourage you to journal the following:

o What are the key fights this Key Territory touches on? o What are the perceptions it addresses? o What is the initial prevailing atmosphere? o How does it manifest and what was the process you went through utilizing this Key Territory?

Enjoy partnering with Holy Spirit in the process and praying the Warrior Declarations! Testimony: I am learning to live from my secret place more consistently, and my awareness of the Holy Spirit with me at all times is increasing, even when His presence is not tangible. As I've had a wave of resistance hit me the last couple of weeks, I'm responding with worship and asking the Lord what upgrade He is bringing here that will not only take me higher but will also be something I can bring to my community. ~ Victoria Boyd

Warrior Declarations for

ABIDING

Father, we are so grateful that You never leave us, nor forsake us.Jesus, You are our Friend who is with us always, even to the end of the age. Holy Spirit, You are the Indwelling Presence, our very present Helper, Teacher and Comforter that connects us with the heart of the Father and the mind of Christ. We declare and release a profound sense of: Hope in Christ that is fadeless under anything and everything that comes. Security in being the much-loved sons and daughters of God at all times. Secret Place-intimacy, peace and rest to be cultivated in every believer. We lock up event-based dependencies; and with the keys of divine process, we release the joy of relational transformation. Instead of fear of abandonment—confidence in the loving God who is ever-present. Instead of depending on the next event—joyful, proactive personal responsibility for life in God. Instead of passive participants in worship—active worshippers engaged daily with the God who adores them. We ask in the name of Jesus, that all people would encounter and come to know these truths. That the eyes of their hearts would be enlightened; re-forming their perceptions, mindsets, language and actions to align with the mind of Christ and the heart of the Father. And empowered by the Holy Spirit, to revolutionize their families, communities and regions with how present You really are and how beloved we are each created to be.That life on earth would be as You see it in heaven for us and all believers.

Juna Light-Stayner New Member Coach

New Member Testimony:

Frank Hasler

Greetings from Germany!

A few days ago, I thought

about the past few months in

The Warrior Class and what

I’ve learned since beginning

this journey.

For me these last months were

about learning. Everything was

new, and from time to time I

asked myself the question,

“What have I done in these

last years?”

Maybe that sounds a little bit

negative. I mean this in a

funny way because so many

things were redefined in my

life. It was a powerful process.

It’s the first time in my life that I

understood I had an old

Testament mindset. For me, it

was hard to accept, but the

truth always sets us free.

Living as a beloved child is

much easier. I understand that

this is the place where I can

live with all the benefits.

I’m grateful to be a part of

TWC!

- Frank

I have to begin by saying that I absolutely love being a New Member Coach. I am in the position of being blessed each month as I dialogue with new members stepping into this bountiful world of discovery called The Warrior Class. One thing I delight in, whether the member has been involved for one week or four months, is their joy at the idea of participating in a community of process - not another program. They are finding there is such a freedom with God to walk in process, anticipating the journey that is opening up before them. There is a synergy that captivates my heart on the training calls as I listen to each person share their spirit with one another. The process begins as the Holy Spirit takes hold and the continuous dialogue taking place catapults each person to a place of expanded awareness of themselves and one another. In these first months, TWC members begin to establish themselves as true warriors, training for the fight, and gaining tools and knowledge for the climb. Everything they need is available. As we wander through the Values & Principles of TWC (Where Our Feet Are Planted), there are always those moments of recognition when an upgrade occurs. On June 11, Don Anderson felt he was being drawn towards the Value & Principle: A Radiant Idea of the Nature of God. Don felt he was moving into a place of seeing each challenge he faced as no longer a challenge but a true opportunity. He was also recognizing that worship was expanding to a place of positive focus that included the prophetic. He heard the words, “Worshiping Warrior” and realized he was moving into a worship upgrade. This is just one example of growth and revelation I am privileged to experience each month. All because a spiritual seed had been planted and watered by the Holy Spirit suddenly there is instantaneous growth to be nurtured for future propagation. What a joyous introduction to TWC for these new members and to the Values & Principles that continue to be a solid ground to stand on. With each training call, new members begin to learn and experience, and expand their capacity to receive from the Spirit in great abundance and in turn give back to us all. Be blessed fellow warriors. I am eager to meet each of you. My next training call is for members in months three and four. We will be experiencing Joyful Intentionality and a Passion Driven Life. August 22, 7PM PDT. Watch your emails for more information.

Where Our Feet Are Planted

Eric Dykstra

Warrior Team Coach

“Warrior Team is a group of warriors, pioneers and explorers who continue to strengthen their training and community through a focused, self-paced training. We climb to new altitudes, acclimate and passionately pursue our growth through all training levels and modules. We are team coached and given opportunities for training and

idea exchanges through conversational calls, specialty training, and an increasing variety of media.”

Identity Empowered by Grace

Stepping into something new can often be scary and overwhelming. If we choose to embrace the change and the process of growing through it, it will always lead us into an upgrade in our identity. Through a recent transition, I’ve realized how grace has empowered my identity. There were times in my transition when my thinking was wavering, but it was my identity, strengthened by grace that held me up and moved me forward! A few weeks ago, I was on vacation in Sturgeon Bay, WI. I was out on a kayak in the middle of Lake Michigan, as far out from land as possible, and the Holy Spirit shared this with me:

“Grace is like the water that is keeping you afloat right now. You, in your own ability cannot stand, move, or venture out into this territory without drowning. Grace lifts you up into places that you could not normally go, and you must live your life from this place of grace. The Kayak is a gift of love from the Father to you.

The Kayak is the Holy Spirit, who enables your true identity. He has the ability to teach you, council you, activate you, and comfort you in ANY circumstance. The oar you have is the word of God that gives you the ability to steer a path out into my grace! God’s word leads and guides you into deeper waters of God’s heart and plans for your life. Look around beloved, all the water you see around is grace, and you have the ability to venture wherever you want to in My grace. When you have the Holy Spirit and My word to guide you, there is no limit! My grace toward you and all my children ALWAYS sustains and empowers your true identity. As you remain in Me, you cannot sink or fail in anything that you do! So enjoy, travel where your heart desires in my grace, you will always be satisfied and connect with My joy in the journey! You are lavished by My grace all around you. Notice how peaceful it is out here, this is the effect My grace has on everything around you, so bring it into every place you go!” The process of change always leads to incredible new discoveries, so enjoy exploring His grace. What is His grace unlocking and establishing for your identity to take it to new levels? - Eric

Neil Hardisty Champions Team Coach

“Champions Team is a company of warriors who have decided to run harder, go faster, climb higher and endure longer through a group mentoring process. Momentum is key in everything we do! Available through application

after completion of Level 1, we build community through team and training calls, Facebook conversations and pouring back into the TWC community in various ways. We are discovering many upgrades to add to our walk.

Kingdom Treasure Nineteen years ago, the Lord told me He would move mightily for a family member who was in poor health. The promise had been, “That which was stolen shall be restored.” For nineteen years I had been declaring that promise aloud with no sign of breakthrough. Moreover, instead of standing as a joyful warrior, I had become more like a coal miner chipping away at a rock face. There had been resolve, but there were times when the joy had been missing. The truth is I had been influenced by enemy intimidation... “It’s been years. What if it doesn’t happen?” Intimidated by the prospect of disappointment, I had lowered my expectations to protect myself. Graham reminds us, “Any thought or emotion not centered in the will is going to talk us out of faith into logic.” I had to find a way back to joyful intentionality and kick that intimidation right into touch! (A rugby term). So I asked to receive a new perspective from my Father, and waited...and waited. Nothing came to mind. Instead, I remembered a quote from Graham. “If you want to see things you have never seen before, you must be prepared to do things you have never done before.” A question formed in my head. Was it possible I was meant to create my own dream? Talk about pushing my boundaries! It was time to explore some limitless possibilities. I gathered all the pieces of the situation and presented them as if they were a jigsaw puzzle in its box.

I knew God could turn them into kingdom treasure. “This is all I have right now, Lord. It’s for You.”

I closed my eyes and it came together surprisingly easy. I was looking at a bride and groom, standing at the altar. As I looked on, something amazing happened. The image came to life. The bride turned, looked at me with a sparkle in her eyes and grinned, her bouquet jiggling up and down with delight. At that moment, I felt something break off my heart. Joy and gratitude spilled out as I began to declare this new hope aloud. But God hadn’t quite finished with me or the dream. As I celebrated, the image changed. It was of the bride and groom surrounded by four young children. She was kneeling with her arms around them and I knew...this dream wasn’t just being resurrected, it was being expanded and I was finally sharing God’s heart for them both. - Neil

Website Feature of the Month

Facebook is one of our main resources to connect and utilize in training. You all make TWC a dynamic and beautiful extension of Kingdom living here on earth and your voices are important to us. Facebook is a great way to spark up dialogue related to training. It offers a great place to get different perspectives and/or experiences as we adapt our training into a lifestyle. This gives our community more richness and fullness in the training. It is also another wonderful place for encouragement and shared revelations as we journey in our own stories apply and utilizing the great tools we have learned in our everyday lives. Prayer points for Graham’s events can be found here as well as any other intercession focuses. Champions Team has been utilizing it as a source to obtain more training materials and discuss training focuses. Also, event sign-ups can be found on Facebook. We have four pages specific to the type of training you have chosen and several places for your voice to be heard and contribute. The Warrior Class page is our general page where irreguardless of your training focus you can post something for the entire community. This is where all levels unite and support each other. We are constantly growing and developing. Much of our training can be built upon in various levels and stages. It is also being revised and updated so if you went through Level 2 a couple of years ago for example there might be great insights from someone posting for you to glean from. It is a great place for new members to post questions and veterans to share their understanding. It is a wonderful place to celebrate the love of learning we all share along with prophetic intercession. The Warrior Team and The Champion Team pages are more specifically related to training focuses and development. TWC Leadership page is a great place for coaches to collaborate and support one another. For more information about the intended use of the pages, please go to the website under the Access tab, Facebook then click General Use Guidelines. This has several helpful hints and ideas of ways you can contribute. We look forward to hearing from you all!

TWC Crafted Prayer Expectation Conference 2017

Father, Jesus and Holy Spirit, We love You and thank You for who You plan to be amongst us at this gathering. It is our joy to partner with Your earnest expectation for these days. Our hope rises in who You desire to be with us and for us. We come with thanksgiving and expectation to see:

Situational trust exchanged for Your gift of unwavering faith. Promises long forgotten, restored to three dimensional reality. New perceptions and mindsets of expectation that create a new language of hope. Childlike trust partnering with mature faith. Confidence that sees Your intended outcomes and passionately runs to meet them.

o We suspend logic and release Your spirit of wisdom and creative imagination. o We lock up fear and unlock an encounter with Perfect Love that expects Your goodness. o We bind despair and call up the Holy Spirit as hope and comfort in each believer. We will expect Your best. We will prepare for Your best. Expand our capacity for Your goodness, grace and glory - that we may encounter all that is in Your heart to manifest. We are still, in peace and joy, eagerly waiting, praying with earnest expectation for the fullness of hope restored, and the revelation of the children of God on earth, as we are known in heaven. May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit, you may abound in hope. Romans 15:13. For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God. Romans 8:19

You know how it is when you hear something over and over, but there’s that one time where you hear it and it enters your heart at a depth that actually changes your very being? That is what occurred for me at the conference in Laramie Wyoming. Graham taught many profound things as usual, but I caught hold of a truth that astonished me with the awe of Kingdom living. I understood at more of a heartfelt level how God teaches us favor by Divine Displacement. We really can replace anything that appears negative and militates against our peace with His INSTEAD! REALLY? Can it be that one can live in such a way where you can curl up and rest in the Spirit and live without ANYTHING being negative? Well, “YES” is the unequivocal answer! When the enemy fires an angry arrow of twisted circumstances into our lives, we get to actually turn it into the flames of glory! Graham spoke about God making a provision against the enemy for us in all circumstances, including anything that raises its head of negativity. In such an avalanche of favor, he explained we learn the expectancy of God, so we can automatically move in the opposite of what evil is attempting to do. Thus, it creates, (in real time), a life where our favor is so great, our understanding of God’s nature so true, that fear, worry, and negativity are completely suffocated by the knowledge of this Truth. The privilege of praying for Graham on site showers me with a pizzazz that accelerates my prayer life, and humbly crowns me with a profound sense of Kingdom fulfillment. - Sandi

Graham’s teaching on “Living on a Higher Place,” was earthed in Laramie, WY as his sea-level lungs were challenged by 7,200 feet of altitude. His spirit, seated high above though, did not skip a beat as he delivered four power packed messages to the Rock Micro Church Planting Tribe. Graham’s assignment was masterfully delivered in calling our brothers and sisters up and in offering a new prescription lens. Graham’s themes included: Caleb and the 12 spies; The Army/Family paradox; The Law of the Spirit of God in Christ Jesus; The primary objective of army as empowering people to endure hardness; and making war on negativity, sprinkled with many astonishing stories and antidotes. Many familiar brilliant antidotes were shared, but new ingredients were noticeably added to His Kingdom explosiveness. Graham continually emphasized, “Everything works for you,” see, think and speak accordingly. “God doesn’t require your best behavior,” His grace meets failure with a double portion. He is looking for trust. Train in expectancy for His goodness. “Stand in favor no matter what is occurring. Circumstances will never get easier, we just get bigger.” As we departed Wyoming on July 15th, we prayed for the Rock Tribe to trust God like Graham exhorted: “Come on, believe Me for something. Bankrupt Me if you can!” - Libby

MEMBER SPOTLIGHT:

Sharon Agbauduta Champions Team Member

About Me: I am a mother of two brilliant sons, lovely daughter-n-love and two dynamic grandsons. I am a Director with a nonprofit organization that helps women in crisis and distress, and we have a yearly night with the King. That is King Jesus; this is a free event of food, entertainment, the Word, gifts, photo and lots of fun. It is showing them how generous and loving our Father is. I am also a part of a team that helps encourage men that are struggling with addictions. Becoming the Beloved: Becoming the Beloved was such an adventure because at times I did not believe or even feel like I was His Beloved. There were many things going on in my life, my marriage was failing, I was having difficulty with my shoulder after surgery, and not working. I would read and listen to the CD over and over again. It seemed like I was not getting it. I got it in my head but my heart was not following. One day when I was going through it again the Holy Spirit said that I needed to actively participate in my reading and listening. He said don’t just highlight the important things but start writing them down and do the same when I am listening to a CD. So that is what I started to do. It was a struggle because it was a longer process. I am the type who wants to get it done, but you know what? It worked! My heart was listening and I was transforming. I was becoming the Beloved and believing it. I knew that I was accepted by Him, that I am fully loved and that love strengthens my spirit so that I can pour out that which is in me to others. What part of God’s nature are you discovering? I am discovering God’s favor and transformation in my life. I had no idea that stepping out in faith this year would bring me the greatest blessing in my life. He has given me favor in all areas of my life. He’s changing the way I eat, types of food, and my physical activities. He’s surrounding me with loving people. He has lavishly poured out His love, joy, peace, protection and let me know I am His special treasure and precious jewel. Taking that first leap of faith is stretching me beyond my wildest beliefs. I remember reading in Graham’s book that you cannot have a desire for Him that is unmatched by His desire for you. It is amazing that the things I long for in God, He is reflecting right back to me in my life. Continued...

In what ways are your thoughts and language being upgraded in TWC? I used to think that I needed to do things to please the Lord, and He had his favorite ones that were with Him a long time. I always felt I needed to pray more, fast, read the Bible more, serve more and go to church. I have come to find that all those things are good to do, but I don’t have to do those things just to earn God’s love. My language is one of a daughter, loved and treasured by my Father, not an orphan. There is not a single blessing that I cannot have because blessing becomes attracted to the presence of God in me. My Identity Statement:

I penetrate darkness of fear, lack, unworthiness, and insecurities and transform it into a life of abundance. I am a trailblazer of God’s heart of mercy and goodness advancing the Kingdom against all negativity. I am a teacher of truth standing against all the lies of the enemy. I am a woman favored by God as a shield and all heaven is attracted to me. I am a discoverer of the treasures, mysteries and truths of God. I am an eagle soaring above all the confusions, doubts, inabilities or lack from the enemy bringing God’s Majesty. I am a whirlwind of joy and peace penetrating the atmosphere of despair, hopelessness, grief, anxiety and fear. I am a reflector of Holiness, and truth, and illuminate light, mercy and grace. I live in the reality of grace as a daughter of God, chosen by Him, blameless, holy, loved and free of all condemnation.

“I am a healer of the broken heart, transformational specialist, deep cleanser of inner pain that brings peace, love, joy and a renewed mind and abundant living.”
