Strategies for Transforming Your City - Wanda Walker
Exploits
Introduction
The purpose of this book is to provide a template for Christians to bring transformation to cities. I will tell you about the prophetic words and strategies we received, how we moved forward through Troup Transformation, Inc., and the results. We are not saying that transformation is complete in Troup County, Georgia but we are definitely on the path. Troup County has three cities – LaGrange, Hogansville, and West Point.
Chapter 1: God Spoke, We Moved in the Spoken Word, and God Did Exploits
In 1995, I enrolled in my first Beth Moore bible study, A Woman’s Heart, God’s Dwelling Place
. One morning as I was getting ready to open my book, the Lord spoke to me and said, Come and eat meat from my table
. I devoured this teaching, and it was through this study I learned that God sometimes provides us a parallel on earth of things happening in heaven. This realization paved the way for my understanding of what came next.
In 1996 vibrant churches in our area connected and held regional meetings bringing Jim and Jean Hodges, Barbara Wintroble, Don Crum, Dutch Sheets, and others to LaGrange. During the course of these meetings, prophecies were released over the area.
Prophecy 1—Barbara Wintroble from Texas prophesied that LaGrange was ready for a spiritual reign like the reign of David. She said God was restoring His church, dividing walls would fall, and denominations would come together. She said the restoration would take place in the hearts of the people.
During the time this prophecy was released, there was much excitement in LaGrange. The city was on the 1996 Olympic Torch Run route, and Torch Run activities were scheduled on LaFayette Square on July 17, 1996. LaGrange was serving as a training center for over five hundred Olympic athletes from forty-one countries. Coinciding with these Olympic activities, God was giving LaGrange a physical picture of what He had released in Barbara Wintroble’s prophetic word. The First Baptist Church on the Square had already discovered that their beautiful sanctuary had structural damages and a life-threatening agent, Asbestos. As a result, the leadership and members of the church wanted to correct the problems and restore the sanctuary to its original design. Consequently, the walls were completely torn down and the life-threatening agent removed. Even the bells on top of the church were restored. Work was also done to cleanse the land. The restoration of the sanctuary was in the middle of the city for all to see. An examination of the construction site revealed a beautiful confirmation that the denominations were coming together.
In an effort to hide the construction site from the view of those attending the Olympic ceremony, a young boy suggested that churches paint sheets of plywood with pictures and place them on the construction site fence. The churches agreed. Signs were placed on the fence that ran in front of the east and south sides of the church. These were aligned side by side.
One day after hearing Barbara Wintroble’s prophecy, I stopped to look at the signs. As I walked down the street, I saw signs representing twenty-three churches and eleven denominations properly aligned. One sign from a Baptist Church stood next to a sign from a Methodist church that stood next to a Church of God sign. I could see that the denominations were coming together. These signs bore pictures of torch runners and scriptures that spoke of the Christian athlete, running for the prize, and of the high calling of God.
In the heart
of LaGrange, God’s long established church was being restored. I am sure this restoration also took place in the hearts of the people who wanted to correct the structural damages of the church by tearing down the walls and removing the life-threatening agent. It was in their heart to see the church restored to its
