CONTROL TOWER - (Apostolic Flight Council)

In our spiritual airport, the "Control Tower" functions as the central hub of guidance, direction, and oversight. Just as an air traffic control tower ensures planes take off, land, and navigate safely, the spiritual Control Tower symbolizes the leadership and divine wisdom that helps travelers stay on course in their spiritual journeys.

Control Tower Functions:

The Control Tower exists to provide clear, consistent, and divine oversight to this spiritual airport. It helps every traveler and leader move forward confidently, knowing they are supported, guided, and aligned with God’s purpose. Whether someone is preparing for takeoff or mid-flight, the Control Tower ensures they stay on course, navigate challenges, and reach their destination safely and with purpose.

1. Divine Guidance and Direction:

The Control Tower receives spiritual insight and direction from God, much like a pilot receives instructions from air traffic control. This represents the flow of divine wisdom, helping travelers discern their next steps and navigate life’s complexities. The Control Tower’s role is to ensure travelers are aligned with God's will and timing.

  • Function: Providing clarity on life decisions, spiritual direction, and purpose, ensuring travelers know when to "take off," wait, or "land" in their journey.

2. Oversight of Spiritual Traffic:

The Control Tower monitors the "spiritual traffic" of the airport, making sure there is order and alignment in the community. This includes overseeing the different ministries, activities, and events to ensure they function cohesively. It also helps prevent "spiritual collisions" by providing clear direction when individuals may be headed in the wrong direction or need adjustment.

  • Function: Offering leadership, managing spiritual priorities, and ensuring harmony and alignment in the lives of individuals and the community as a whole.

3. Communication with Travelers and Leaders:

The Control Tower acts as a communication hub, relaying divine messages, prophetic words, and spiritual insights to leaders (the Flight Crew) and travelers alike. This communication helps ensure that everyone stays in sync with God’s overarching plan.

  • Function: Delivering God’s word through sermons, teachings, prophetic insights, and prayer, equipping individuals to hear and recognize God's voice in their own lives.

 

4. Monitoring Spiritual Growth and Readiness:

Just as a control tower assesses whether a plane is ready for takeoff or needs to circle before landing, the spiritual Control Tower monitors the growth and readiness of individuals. It ensures that travelers are spiritually mature enough for their next step, whether that be entering into ministry, launching a new endeavor, or simply moving forward in faith.

  • Function: Assessing spiritual maturity, readiness for leadership, and identifying when someone is prepared for greater responsibility or new seasons in life.

5. Conflict Resolution and Course Correction:

The Control Tower also serves as a place of course correction and conflict resolution. When a traveler or leader faces confusion, doubt, or conflict, the Control Tower provides guidance to get them back on track. This may come through spiritual counseling, mediation, or providing a fresh perspective.

  • Function: Offering correction, resolution, and redirection when individuals encounter spiritual turbulence, helping them avoid delays or setbacks on their journey.

6. Visionary Leadership:

The Control Tower has a high-level perspective, able to see the big picture of the spiritual airport. This allows leaders in the Control Tower to cast vision for the future of the community, ensure alignment with God’s plans, and strategically guide the community towards growth and expansion.

  • Function: Providing visionary leadership, setting the course for the community’s future, and ensuring that the spiritual airport continues to thrive and fulfill its mission.
