Prophetic Word given to a member of the church

Launching Out

For context, this word was given at the early stages of God building us to together at Lifeboat church. There was just five of us and we knew God was at work among us. We were contemplating starting out as a church. There was a vision given before which is refered to in the prophetic word, that vision is described here:  "I saw a picture of a wooden lamp . The light that was burning inside of the lamp began to get bigger and bigger until you could no longer see the lamp itself because the light had consumed it." This was the word....

Launch off into the deep.
Many boats are shipwrecked close to the shore.  As you move into the deep you will have to navigate difficult shipwrecked places but I will direct you.  Don’t give up! The light that your little boat will provide will draw people towards you/me.
I want to take you out to the places where your trust in your own understanding has been a boundary (the wood of the little lamp in my picture) as you move into places that are outside of your own understanding, your light will shine brighter and brighter and others will see ME.
Remember that what you do for the least of these, you do for me. Take those who have been on these shipwrecked vessels into the safe place that I am providing for you.
Be bold, preach the word in season and out. I will be your shield of protection.
Your prayers will see curses that have been spoken over the Church in Burton broken and I will bring unity for MY flock.
