Title2016903270vDedicationThis book is dedicated to the memory of the late Aaron Gov-ender, who was suddenly called to rest on the 3rd of September 2004, the month of the first publication of this book. He was not just an integral part of the Eldership of River of Life Chris-tian Ministries, but also a colleague and friend.

3 In many respects he was a source of inspiration and motivation to me in writing GILGAL . His mark on my life has left an imprint on every page of this book. viiTable of ContentsIntroduction xiiiApostolic Reformation 1 The Place of Re-formation 17 The Prophetic Reconfiguration of Mindset 29 The Establishment of an Apostolic People 47 The Place of Circumcision 67 The Feast of Passover 87 The Change of Economic Policy 101 Recapitulation 123 Bibliography 127ixForewordWe are living in the most powerful prophetic time in the des-tiny of the nations.

4 The release of strong apostolic impartation into the foundation of Church life is activating the saints into recapturing their global mandate and establishing God s will and Kingdom upon the entire earth. God s most profound desire is to establish a standard nation in the earth, one to which all other nations can Father has foreordained that His prophetic register, out from which His purposes will find culmination in the earth, will converge in a representative people who will know how to bring the nations of the earth to a position of bended knee. God s intent is for the Church to occupy a position of patriarchal strength in the earth.

5 It s a position from which His Fatherhood identity is imposed so that the Church can birth forth His pur-pose in every strength means that the Church cannot be static. It is the catalyst that propels God s authority to be executed in the earth. The end-time Church is an authoritative vehicle that engineers a shift in spiritual positions. It is this powerful position in God that excludes worldly indulgence. The last-day Church will be a mountain, a fortress, a tower (Isa. 2) positioned in the midst of the crises that will overtake the Gilgalxearth! In Daniel s vision, the stone of the Kingdom was cut out of a mountain (Dan. 2:45) and it began to destroy the Babylonian systems of the earth.

6 The stone itself grew and became a moun-tain in the the context of this book, GILGAL : Biblical Principles Govern-ing Transition Into the Apostolic Reformation is powerfully relevant in that it imparts the present truth realities of the transition of the entire Church into governmental superiority. Thamo encap-sulates accurately a key ingredient to the 21st century Kingdom word means more than just rolling away the reproach of a past life; it symbolically portrays the picture of the birth of a nation! It gives us a vivid picture of the emergence of a new breed of people healed from every fragmentation within the Body of Christ; people with fresh insight and powerfully positioned for final conquest!

7 At GILGAL , a whole nation was built through the process of circumcision the cutting away of excess flesh from the frontlets of their mentalities. Thamo accurately exegetes the practical princi-ples of this process that are God s prerequisites for stepping into a place of final conquest. Thamo Naidoo has travelled the nations teaching these new present truth positions of the Lord. It is my fervent prayer that pastors and Church leaders begin to teach these principles in their local churches so that the message of the Apostolic Reformation can be embraced and, consequently, posi-tion the Church into new levels in Blignaut Father s Heart MinistriesPort Elizabeth, South AfricaxiPrefaceThe seed that gave birth to this book can be traced to 1998.

8 I was in prayer in a hotel room in Nakuru, Kenya, when the Holy Spirit illuminated my heart with the revelation of GILGAL . I heard God say to me that I must write a book on GILGAL , a book which will help congregations to transition into the new season. In a moment, I received the outline that is now the framework of this present copy. At that point in time, the message of the Apostolic Reforma-tion was fairly new to me. It had dynamically impacted my life, but I was not ready to deliver the message. Although I was over-whelmed by the instruction to write the book, I was also intimi-dated by the mere thought of writing (a skill I lacked). As a result of my feelings of inability, unbelief, intimidation and poor disci-pline, the book has taken six years to complete.

9 Needless to say, writing this book has been one of the most daunting challenges of my life. It was like a first attempt at climbing a high mountain. I must, however, acknowledge those who motivated me to bring conclusion to this outstanding matter on my prophetic register. My wife, Mirolyn, has not only encouraged the com-pletion of the book but also made invaluable suggestions in its formation. My sons Theron, Sherwin and Rylan have also made many sacrifices in permitting me to travel the nations and to give Gilgalxiime the space to hide in my office for hours so that the writing could be completed. My special thanks to Dr. Rani Moodley and Pastor Winston Govinden for their insightful suggestions, and to Kenny Frank for editing.

10 My sincere gratitude to Living Word Church (Ps. Eugene and Patrice Sheppard), Washington DC and Crusaders West (Apostle Daryl O Neil), Chicago, USA, for their financial support and encouragement in the writing of this book. There are so many others who have played a role in giving momentum to its writing; Leon and Hendrika Brown (Alaska, USA) and Eric and Carolyn Warren (Columbus, Ohio, USA).I would like to place on record my appreciation to Dr. Noel Woodroffe of the World Breakthrough Network for the impact made on my life in the formative stages of the apostolic season. He together with Dr Robert Munien, helped shape this message in my life and , my congregation and staff of River of Life Christian Ministries occupy a very unique place in this book.
