One thing I would add is always reseach,begin yourself a library of fact you have had revelation on,backed by the word.References are a great tool.
Stay away from the Elders conversation until you are ready to conversate,not debate,you.ll find yourself stuck on a subject that God,wanted you to hear about,not shout about.
Use the Holy Spirit to guide you to those who know were you are, and not were they want you to be spiritually.
Stay in prayer,and ALWAYS,seek HIM first,MATT6:33.
