Session F (Going Deeper, Going Higher 2008) Carol Arnott

Engaging recap (main plot + highlights)

The session opens with Carol Arnott leading the congregation back into worship and prayer, emphasizing a “spiritual songs” kind of singing—less about performing familiar hymns and more about letting intuition, focus, and spirit-to-Spirit connection guide the time. The atmosphere builds into extended worship, with repeated calls like “Come Holy Spirit” and “Welcome Your Glory,” setting the stage for a prophetic and prayer-driven service.

After the music, Carol brings up people for ministry. A standout moment is a prophecy delivered over Peter from Slovenia: she describes him as connected to a national “portal” purpose, speaks about fresh fire, obstacles being burned away, and frames him as a “firstfruits” witness of a new birthing for his nation. The prayer is intense and celebratory—followed immediately by ministry and exhortation aimed at “Slovenia” itself, calling people to receive and letting glory “overtake” nations.

Next, the service continues with more prophetic language and testimonies about divine encounter imagery—particularly dreams/visions and “go deeper” themes. Patricia is invited forward and receives a vivid prophetic message involving water, stepping into deeper levels, climbing toward a towering “diving board,” and being told that while a “pool” is wonderful, there are deeper “pools” inside that remain wherever one walks—leaving spiritual impact behind.

Carol then shifts into the main teaching theme: the baptism of the Holy Spirit “with fire.” She references multiple Bible passages (notably Acts 1–2 and Matthew 3) and speaks about how fire has been increasing in recent months/years within their gatherings—pairing scripture with personal stories of supernatural manifestations (including seeing angels and intense “soaking” encounters).

A central narrative example: Carol recounts a time of soaking where a friend prayed for “fire,” and Carol describes herself becoming immobilized by the fire for hours, experiencing intense “birthing” travail, and later healing/physical aftermath (broken/burst blood vessels). She ties this to other reported occurrences: fire on hands and faces, the ability to perceive spiritual realms, and cases of healings and deliverance spreading from those who carry “burning” presence.

Key teaching + “sequence” highlight (Acts 2)

Carol quotes Bob Jones’ interpretive sequence from Acts 2 and explains it as a progression that reverses over time:

• Wine first — associated with the falling/overflowing presence that produced love, laughter, and restoration
• then Fire — burning and purification
• then Wind — a further movement signifying what comes with the Lord’s coming

She includes a humorous/remarkable memory about someone being “drunk for weeks” (in the spirit), using it to emphasize that the drunkenness produced love for Jesus and a renewed Father-focused understanding—not merely power-seeking.

Carol also warns about wrong motivations: some came for power, and later struggles/sin surfaced—presented as a caution that real revival should begin with heart-reorientation and intimacy, not just empowerment.

Fire imagery and Elijah/Moses/Revelation references

Carol reinforces the “fire of God” theme with scripture examples:

• Elijah vs. Baal: “God who answers by fire” shown as both purification and public demonstration
• Moses and the burning bush: fire that does not consume—transforming life while not annihilating the person
• Refiner’s fire and end-times “latter rain” language: fire as something that ignites believers from lukewarmness into “red hot”

She frames ongoing soaking/immersion as necessary—like keeping oil from running out, continuously fed so the fire doesn’t fade.

Final ministry moment (altar call)

The session culminates in a large prayer/ministry flow: Carol asks for doors to be opened and invites people forward in lines, with “catchers” positioned—suggesting a physical/emotional/power ministry that may involve someone being overwhelmed or needing support.

The congregation chants variations of:

• “Let the fire fall”
• “Let the wind blow”
• “Let the glory come down”

People are prayed over, and the service closes with worship continuing in the same high-intensity “glory” atmosphere.
