counseling, teaching, My name is Cheere (Sha-Ree) Howell and I am the owner and CEO of FirstFruits Teacher LLC. I am a licensed teacher and certified Five-Fold Minister by way of John Eckhardt's Impact University. My mission is to normalize the prophetic, demystify hearing God's voice, and help you grow in clarity, confidence, and communion with the Holy Spirit. As a spiritual midwife (Isaiah 54:1), my call is to help you identify, nurture, and birth what God has placed inside of you. You have a calling. You have a God-given identity and plan (Jeremiah 29:11). You have hope that is available to you (Ephesians 1:17-18). I want to help you access it by pursuing His voice intentionally. Whether you're just getting started or ready to go deeper, our trainings, courses, activations, and mentorship opportunities are designed to stir up your gifts, remove fear, and make walking in the Spirit your new normal.

Over the years we have come to know that our faith, belief and trust is being more aligned to the DNA of the kingdom of Heaven. Our entire international church and ministry is apostolic in nature. Apostles being first sent out to expand and present the kingdom of heaven to the nations, each carries the ordinances, statutes, rules and ways of the Gospel of Christ and the kingdom of Heaven. We know the apostles to this present time are the ones who possess the blueprint, become fathers to the nations and have encountered Christ. The Apostles and the prophets are the foundation carriers of the blueprint, Divine mandate, the foundation and the structure of the kingdom of Heaven to the body in Christ sent by the Wisdom of Heavenly Father. They are not separate but are co-laborers with the rest of the Ministry gifts established and exhibited to His body through Christ and explained to the body by apostle’s Peter, Paul, John and James as recorded. We believe only in the kingdom of Heaven and The Kingdom of God to whom is given to each believer upon their acceptance in Christ and the receiver to whom Holy Spirit indwells. We are not affiliated with religion or denominations. Therefore it is our belief system and pattern to these truths: Abba Father created everything out of Himself that is pleasing to Himself! We believe He selected a group of people who are grafted into the vine and are called sons of men with our Hebrew family. We believe Heavenly Father is our supreme creator who we can commune and have relationship with by the way of Christ through Holy Spirit. Heavenly Father is all powerful, supernatural and authoritative in nature. We believe that Heavenly Father entered into Mary and The Christ was born of His DNA and became human flesh and atonement for the world. We believe that the Christ is the Son of God who currently is seated at the right hand of the throne of God. We believe that no one can come to Heavenly Father except by the Way of Christ. Christ is the Truth, the Only Way and Life. He is the Son of God who awaits His coronation and the end of Satan’s rebellion. We believe Holy Spirit indwells in each of us and enables us to speak in our heavenly language and releases gifts to each of the body in Christ by the will of Father Himself. We believe He has divine functions & purposes that enable us to live on earth as Kingdom Citizens at the same time being in Heaven seated with Christ. We believe He is remanded, the amplification to the earth.
