Try To Imagine

Try To Imagine-1 Corinthians 2:6-19

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.  No, we speak of God’s secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. However, as it is written: 

“No eye has seen,

no ear has heard,

no mind has conceived

what God has prepared for those who love him” –  but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.  The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God.

Try to imagine that God sees past, present and future all at the same time.  Try to imagine what God’s “secret wisdom” is…  “a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.”  Try to imagine that God already knows what’s going to happen everywhere and every “when” on earth, 24/7/365. 

Try to imagine that God has searched your heart and he knows you… that He knows when you sit down and when you get up… that He perceives every thought that runs through your head all the way from heaven, and that He does so without your opening your mouth to express those thoughts… that He knows everything that you do, where you go, whether you’re going somewhere or whether you’re lying down… that He is familiar with every single one of your habits… that before a word is on your tongue, God knows it completely.  (Psalm 139:1-4)

Pretty awesome, isn’t it?  Now, try to imagine this… God has things planned for you that “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has conceived”.   Perhaps the toughest one for any of us to comprehend is that God is going to create a new heaven and a new earth. (Isaiah 65:17; Revelation 21:1) 

Have you ever wondered what heaven is like?  Most of us do, at least a little.  The problem is, we don’t have any frame of reference for what heaven is like.  So when we imagine it, there’s always some of what we know on earth incorporated into our thinking.  But the truth is, “no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no mind has conceived” what heaven is really like.  The only thing we know for sure is that Jesus is there, and so are all our friends and relatives that we love who were saved before they passed away.  What it looks like… what we’ll do there… well, we just have no way to know…

Now, why think about all these things?   Because this old world can be a rough place to live.  Even those of people who have what others perceive as “good” lives have to contend with things that try their minds and spirits and emotions.  It doesn’t matter who we are, we are not immune from trials.  And even when we’re not suffering one trial or another, we still have difficult decisions to make.  We have to contend with our health and that of our families… We have to make decisions about where to live and what to eat and what to wear and where to work.  And we have to deal with those same things when our jobs disappear for one reason or another.  We have to deal with relationships, and we have to deal with people who turn on us or betray us or hurt us in some other way.  And, sometimes, we have to deal with the death of someone we love.

If you’re finding this old world tough to deal with, remember this… if you are a born again believer, the Holy Spirit is living within you to guide you, to teach you, and to comfort you.  Knowing this and knowing about the eternal future that awaits you should give you hope and the courage to keep going in this life.  Just remember, this life came to pass, not to stay… This is not all there is… and what awaits us is more awesome than we can possibly imagine.

Nation Against Nation Ethnos

A PROPHETIC WORD: NATION AGAINST NATION ETHNOS
By Paul McGuire

About fifteen years ago as I was speaking live on the air from Los Angeles, while hosting the nationally syndicated Paul McGuire Show, which aired Monday-Friday, from 3 PM to 6 PM for over 10 years. While doing one particular show, the Lord spoke to me. He did not speak to me in an audible voice, but in my spirit. I was talking on the need for a genuine and Biblical revival. All of sudden, I received what can only be described as a revelation. I did not announce to the audience that, "I was receiving a revelation from God." I thought quietly about it, before I spoke and I did not make some ground pronouncement. I simply shared the truth the Lord revealed to me, in a conversational tone.

The Lord showed me something quickly, like a divine illumination. You know, kind of like those pictures of a light bulb going on in somebody's brain? But, I knew that these ideas were not the product of my own intellect, because they were not the result of my own thinking processes or study. But, as I was hosting the show live and talking to the callers on-air, I was thinking about what the Lord had revealed to me and although, it applied nationally, I knew that at that time, God was focusing in on Los Angeles. The Lord showed me that one of the greatest things holding back revival was the sin of racism in the church.

It was as if, I could see that God wanted to send a mighty last day's revival to Southern California, but that Satan was able to block it because of division between white, brown and black Christians. I actually surprised myself, when I began talking about it. I did not realize the deep significance of this to what was happening in the invisible realm. When I began to talk about it on the air, the topic of revival and racism was met with somewhat of an icy reception. That did not matter to me because I knew the Lord told me to talk about it and eventually lead the radio audience in intercessory prayer. I learned long ago on the radio, to obey the Lord and not try to please people.

It was God who raised me up and my job was to follow His orders, whether or not they were popular. Eventually, the audience felt the divine urgency to pray for this and it was like great dams in heaven were unblocked and the rivers of living water were pouring out across the land. I could sense that by obeying God, that we had dealt a blow to the powers of darkness!

Now that is not something I would ordinarily talk about or share and I did not say anything to the effect of the "Lord showed me."  I did not want to puff myself up, or bring attention to myself.  It was the truth that God showed that was important, and I felt that I was to get out of the way and talk about that truth.  I must explain, that I don't usually follow trends in the Christian community.  Nor do I attempt to be politically correct.  I could care less about being politically correct, my goal was and is the truth and not political correctness.  At this time, there were a lot of teachings circulating around the church about repenting of racism and asking God for forgiveness for personal sins of racism and collective sins of racism, such as the sin of slavery and what was done to the Indians.

I believe those were actual sins that were committed and that they need to acknowledged, confessed as sin, forgiveness asked for and to whatever degree possible practical reconciliation made.

However, I do not buy into what is called historical revisionism, regarding America's history.  America is not perfect and our history is not perfect, we should not sweep that under the carpet.  But, America and American Christians are not all evil either.  The fathers of the First Great Awakening like Jonathan Edwards had a deep love for the Indian community and he voluntarily chose to spend many of his years, including  the final years of his ministry to teaching, educating and ministering to the Indians, while living on an Indian reservation.  Although, our Constitution and Bill of Rights was not initially applied to African Americans, women and Indians, eventually changes were made and life, liberty and pursuit of happiness were applied equally to all Americans.

There is no question that what European men who came to America and called themselves Christians did to both African Americans in terms of buying and selling slaves, raping the slave women and violating God's laws.  I realize the issue is far more complicated and not as simplistic as I am making it.  In addition, God rose up many godly men like Abraham Lincoln and then despite his imperfections, Martin Luther King, Kr.  Although. America is not perfect, to one degree or another, it is willing to change and repent and God honors that.

Then about 12 years ago, the Lord began to warn me prophetically about the coming race wars that would erupt in America, the EU and around the world. The Lord supernaturally pulled back the veil and showed me that these race wars and class wars were not the mere result of natural human racial conflicts.  The Lord shined a light in the darkness and He made me understand that these race wars and class wars were being carefully orchestrated and planned by an invisible elite that would use the media to create both manufactured crisis and manufactured race wars in our nation!  These invisible elite was a combined effort of powerful occult groups like the Illuminati and international banking interests which were trying to bring down America in order to install a global government and a one world economic system.  Their end game was to destroy the Middle Class in America, the EU, Australia, Asia, South Africa, South America and other areas.  They wanted one giant lower class of serfs or slaves and a ruling elite class.  They planned to use genocide to reduce the population of planet earth by billions and microchip the rest of the population.

These financial groups who are controlled by the Illuminati and the Externalization of the Hierarchy were going to radically changed planet earth through the United Nation's Agenda 21 program.  The Externalization of the Hierarchy refers to a race of highly evolved super beings that are in direct contact with spirit guides from another world and are directing the global plan for a one world government, one world economic system and one world religion.  I explain all this in the 3-DVD series, Are you Ready? They planned to destroy the Constitution and bring in UN law.  A world charismatic leader would soon arise who would rule ten regional global governments and establish a single global government.  This charismatic leader or Anti-Christ would receive supernatural help from the False Prophet, who would perform signs and wonders, create a one world econonomic system and force people to accept a biochip or microchip implant.  This False Prophet would then establish a one world religion and a one world economic system.  The fact that the False Prophet calls fire down from the sky and the people of the earth worship some kind of technological image of the First Beast or Antichrist seems to indicate contact with beings from another dimension.  Although, our modern culture would classify these beings as aliens, they could represent the one third of the angels who followed Lucifer and are in rebellion from God.

But, this goes far beyond what most people think!  In order to unify the world, there would be the threat of a massive alien invasion from outer space.  Whether real or manufactured with technology from Operation Blue Beam, both the False Prophet and the Antichrist would unify the world.  This will involve transhumanism, the Post Human movement, a DNA dictatorship, animal/human and possibly Nephilim interspecies breeding in order to create a super race.  When Jesus Christ said, they would nation would fight against nation (ethnos). I think he was referring not only to human race wars, but against a hybrid alien race, which are the result of human and the breeding of Nephilim or fallen angels.   I do into all of this in the 3-DVD series, "Are You Ready?" and the new DVD, now available for pre-order, entitled. "Moon into Blood."

After the Flood of Noah, which some Bible scholars believe was designed to wipe out the interspecies breeding that happened between the fallen angels and human women, producing the Nephilim.  However, after the Flood of Noah, which Jesus Christ referred to when He said, "As it was in the Days of Noah, so it shall be in the Days of the coming of the Son of Man."  The implication appears to be that one of the primary sins of the human race in addition to wickedness and violence was the interspecies breeding between fallen angels and human women that produced the Nephilim.

The Bible gives references to other races that were the result of the DNA produced by the interspecies breeding between human women and fallen angels, in addition to the Nephilim. The Rephaim, according to ancient Ugaritic and Phoenician sources, were a race of giants that appeared to be the result of interspecies breeding.  History, archeology and the Bible reveal that giants once roamed this earth - before and after the flood.  Genetically these giants were not fully human.  Like the Nephilim, they were the result of the mixture of human DNA with the DNA of fallen angels.  That is why when Joshua and Caleb entered the Promised Land of Canaan, the land was filled with giants.  Some scientists believe that the DNA of these giants has been recovered in bodies and skeletons of giants found in Antarctica and frozen deep beneath the earth.  There are astronauts and scientists who believe that the bodies of aliens recovered at UFO crash sites, contain the DNA of a super race.  The question is, "Did this super race come from another dimension or from outer space. In addition, there appears to be a connection between the highly advanced technology of these aliens or fallen angels.  Some people believe that these advanced races are patterning secretly with the military and governments in highly classified projects.

If that is the case, then some of the technology that has been discovered over the last 50 years, may have come from the technology developed by alien or fallen angels.  A careful reading of Revelation opens the door to that possibility.

These giants like Goliath were defeated when Joshua and the people of Israel conquered the Promised Land.  We find a reference to this in the book of Joshua in Joshua 17:15:

"If you are so numerous," Joshua answered, "and if the hill country of Ephraim is too small for you, go up into the forest and clear land for yourselves there in the land of the Perizzites and Rephaites."  The Rephaites were the Rephaim of old.

But even after the Rephaim were wiped out, their legacy remained.  In fact a whole valley was named after them.  It turned out that the "Valley of Rephaim" witnessed quite a number of battles according to the Scriptures.  We see one example of this in 2 Samuel 5:22....

"And the Philistines came up yet again, and spread themselves in the valley of Rephaim."

When Jesus Christ referred to nation going against nation, the root word is ethnos, which means ethnic or racial group.  Since it was Christ Himself who compared the Days of Noah with our time, the distinguishing factor of Noah's time was the interspecies breeding between the sons of god and human women, which means the interspecies breeding between fallen angels which could be aliens and human women.  Again, since Jesus Christ makes the direct comparison between the Days of Noah and our time, what is He talking about?  Exceeding wickedness and violence, although deserving judgment has almost been a constant in human history. The unique and distinguishing factor would have to be the interspecies breeding, which God went to great length to forbid in the Levitical laws going after strange flesh, which includes interspecies sexual relations and breeding.    Genetically a divined principle is instituted in Genesis.  In Genesis 1:11-25, God reveals His commandment in being fruitful and multiplication.  Repeatedly, we read the term, "That yields fruit according to its own kind." Genesis 1:11.  In Genesis 1:12, God's Word say's, "And the earth brings forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its own kind, and the tree that yield fruit according to its own kind, whose seed itself according to its own kind.  And God saw that it was good."

In Genesis 1:21, "So God created great sea creatures and every living thing that moves, with which the waters abounded, according to their own kind, and every winged bird according to its own kind. And God saw that it was good." In Genesis 1:24-25, "Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth the living creature according to its kind: cattle and creeping thing and beast of the earth, each according to its kind"; and it was so. 25

And God made the beast of the earth according to its kind, cattle according to its kind, and everything that creeps on the earth according to its kind. And God saw that it was good."

However, when it comes to the creation of man, God cannot make man according to its kind!  Despite the lies of Evolutionary Theory, man is not an evolved part of the animal kingdom, he something completely different, God says in a completely unique manner, "Let Us make man in Our image."  Therefore mankind is distinct and above the rest of creation because he is made in the image of God.  The genetics of DNA of man are made in the image of God and not plant or animal!

In Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over allthe earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth." So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, "Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

God made man for a high and holy purpose and God does not want the DNA in man to be corrupted by interspecies breeding of animal or fallen angel.  Thus the strict Levitcal Law's against bestiality or same-sex relationships, which is termed strange flesh.  In addition, sexual relationships between human women and fallen angels violates God's divine order genetically.

As we turn on the evening news we see a marked increase in earthquakes, freak weather, tornadoes', wars and rumors of wars.  The signs of the times that Jesus Christ spoke about before His return, are increasing with intensity.  The nation of Israel is God's prophetic time clock and we not only need to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but we need to recognize that the prospect of World War III and thermonuclear war erupting in the Middle East as profound Biblical applications.  Although, there are questions as to whether or not we are approaching the War of Gog and Magog in Ezekiel 38? What is happening between Israel and Iran has prophetic significance.

Jesus Christ also warned us in Matthew 24:7-8:

"For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and  earthquakes in various places.  All these are the beginning of sorrows."  I believe that we are seeing the very beginning of the birth pains that Jesus Christ spoke of.  But, I do not believe that we have yet entered the seven year Tribulation Period.  Let's look at the words of Jesus Christ again:

"For nation [ethnos] shall rise against nation, and kingdom [basileia] against kingdom: and there shall be famines [limos], and pestilences [loimos], and earthquakes [seismos], in divers places. " In Italics we have the Greek words from which words like nation come  from.

Jesus Christ said that in the last day's nation, which comes from ethnos.  Ethnos literally means nation or ethnic and racial group.  It could refer to an ethnic group involved in a tribal or other kind of war.  At the economic problems of our nation and the world's nation's increase, people have a tendency to want to retreat to their own ethnic, racial or tribal groups for safety.  This is part of the fall of man and in it is demonic in nature.  Racism is a demonic force, because it is built upon the satanic lie or stronghold, that one race is superior over another.

In America right now, as in other nations of the world, there are powerful groups behind the scenes that are seeking to promote race wars so they can divide and conquer.  The strategy of division and conquest is an ancient military strategy.  Right now in America, it appears there are powerful forces using the media to whip up racial hatred and incite race wars.  That does not mean that we do not have serious problems and injustices to be worked out among different ethnic and racial groups.  But, there are forces, ultimately demonic, which are using race, as a means to deliberately start race wars and the media is a prime tool in this operation!

We must remember that all true Christians who have been born-again and have the Holy Spirit living inside of them are part of the Body of Christ.  As such, no matter what race or ethnic group we are part of, we are one in the Spirit.  Ultimately, our racial identity is found in the Word of God.  All true believers are now in the blood line of Jesus Christ and we carry the spiritual DNA of God.  In Christ, we have been made new creatures in Christ and as new creatures in Christ; we are now in race of the children of God.

The responsibility of believers is not to be conformed to this world.  We must access the mind of Christ and renew our minds with the Word of God.  As such, we must resist the devil and the world spirit, which would attempt to divide the true Body of Christ.  Jesus Christ said that we are to "love one another and by this all men will know we are true Christians!"  There are many so-called Christian leaders of many races who are stirring up racial hatred and race wars.  True Christians, who are walking in the power of the Holy Spirit, are able to discern the spirits.  Men and women who claim to be Christian leaders and use the title Reverend, Doctor  and Pastor, are wolves in sheep's clothing if they are inciting racism!

Any person, who has the Holy Spirit living inside of them, has the agape love of Jesus Christ in them.  A person whose hear is filled with the love of Christ cannot promote racial hatred and be walking under the Lordship of Christ.  For any Christian to say that they are voting for someone simply because they are black, white or brown is sin.  You never vote for someone on the basis of race.  You vote for someone because they most closely represent and stand for Biblical values.  Race should have nothing to do with it.

We must resist the temptation to surrender to racial hatred; no matter how justified we may feel.  People may commit sins against other person that are racially motivated and that is sin.  But, we are not to be overcome evil with evil.  The root problem is not race.  The root problem is sin.

Raised Up

Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.  And God has appointed these in the church: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, varieties of tongues. Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Are all workers of miracles?  Do all have gifts of healings? Do all speak with tongues? Do all interpret? 31 But earnestly desire the best gifts. And yet I show you a more excellent way. I Corinthians 12:27-28

If all you are getting is information from people who do not have the Spirit of God in them, no matter how much you may like them, you are cutting yourself off from the revelation of God's Word in the last days. God has risen up His ministers, Bible teachers and those with prophetic callings in the last day. They have both intellectual knowledge and an anointing from the Holy Spirit to minister. They also have studied and understand the prophetic scriptures, rightly dividing the Word of God. If you are not walking in the power of the Holy Spirit and renewing your mind with the Word of God, than you are not walking in the perfect will of God. However well-meaning, you are like sheep that has been led astray. Radio, television, Internet and media commentators may be brilliant and share your values. Many Christians worship secular and Christian celebrity status over being called by God. This is a form of idolatry and God has judged His church for doing this.This is why in many cases the church is lost and not on fire for the Lord, because the people seek to be fed spiritually by media celebrities. They are worshipping men and not listening to God. Who are the true ministers of God who have been anointed by God to lead and guide His people in the last days? They are there and many Christians who have spiritual discernment are listening to what God has to say to His people now through their ministries. But, if they do not have the Holy Spirit inside of them and really understand prophecy properly, you are existing on a spiritual diet of Fruit Loops. This is meant to be a word of correction.  These are the last days and you are to walk according to the Word of God. This is the only way you can overcome and truly understand what's going on. In addition, the only way you can be spiritually equipped, edified and built up is through teachers who have been called by God and are equipped by God to minister to you the Word of God by the Holy Spirit. Conservative commentators have things to offer, but if they do not have the supernatural call God on their lives, they can only give you mere human knowledge. You are part of the Body of Christ and God has specifically raised up His ministers to equip you.

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Hosea 4:6

An Empty Tomb

Crucified

^{Galatians 2:20} I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.

Of Religion & Resurrection

Near to the eve of His destruction, He taught in the temple to the multitudes and to His disciples, giving a stern rebuke to the scribes and Pharisees, and they did not receive his words because their hearts were hardened, leading Him to conclude: "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gatherest her chickens under her wings, and ye would not.  Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.  For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is He that cometh in the Name of YHVH."

I, too, felt His despair on my trip to Jerusalem in 2006.  It wasn't what I expected. Churches were built over the places where my Savior suffered, shrines, even idols to his memory. The path He took to the cross was not uphill as historically described, it was downhill.  Only because the original way to Golgotha was buried beneath 21 feet of 2,000 years of civilization, but it didn't stop the money changers from their promotions; or the Muslims, who control that part of Jerusalem, from boarding up many of the historical sites.

And when Helena, the mother of Roman Emperor Constantine, authenticated where my Savior was crucified on Golgotha, she leveled the site and the Catholic and Greek Orthodox churches rushed to build shrines over what they believed to be the site of the crucifixion, where He was prepared for burial, and the tomb given by Joseph of Arimathaea.  The Greek Orthodox church won the race; the Catholics built a building attached to the Greek Orthodox church.  Both made Helena a saint.  But they turned these holy places into idols, gaudy relics of religion parked upon it, devoid of spiritual significance, reminiscent of the white sepulchers of which He once spoke, beautiful on the outside, but dead bones within.

I grieved in my spirit of what man has done to His honor.  But there was yet another stop along the way.  The actual place of the skull, Golgotha, a killing place not 100 yards from where Helena claimed my Savior was buried. A garden tomb.  A peaceful place.  A place also once owned by Joseph of Arimathaea.  A place where the stone was more likely rolled away.  And there was joy in my heart. For my Lord and Savior Yeshua Ha Mashiach revealed to me that it really makes no difference what man has done to the relics of the past; or what arguments can be made about history, or idols or religious religion. The important thing to remember, above all else, is: The tomb is empty because our Messiah is risen! Rejoice! 

 

Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!

The Judas Epidemic

Have you ever wondered why today's "postmodern church" seems to look so different than the church of years gone by? Have you ever wondered what has happened to that "old-time religion" that was good enough for your parents and grandparents, but doesn't seem good enough for people of today? The Judas Epidemic will answer those questions for you. It seeks to explain why the church and world governments are running down the "wide path of destruction" mentioned in John 7:14: who it is that is leading the way down that path, and why you should beaware of their deceptive doctrines. The Judas Epidemic is a "no holds barred" rebuke of the emerging apostate philosophies in the church that water down and contradict the Word of God.

Occupy!...In The Storms That Must Come

 Deuteronnomy 3:¹ Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei. ² The LORD said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”
 ³ So the LORD our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors. ⁴ At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan. ⁵ All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. ⁶ We completely destroyed them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, women and children. ⁷ But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.

My holy people; you must set your sites much higher than you have been. For it is within My Great Heart for you to turn complete regions upside down for the Kingdom. Yes, I desire you to reclaim the land, to take territory, to topple the ruling principalities and powers and cause complete regions to come into the Kingdom.
It is time to put your fears aside and to embrace Me fully. The plan always has been for you to reclaim the land. This has always been My desire; for there is no more noble a cause than to see the kingdoms of this world become part of My Kingdom. When you seek eternal things, you shall reap eternal things. When you reclaim what has been overrun by the adversary, you shall reap eternally. When you have set your heart on that which is upon My Great Heart you will not be disappointed. For I have anointings and secrets and treasures of My Heart just waiting to become yours as you continue journeying with Me.
Do not be weighed down with circumstances nor waste time with what people think. Rather keep your heart set on Mine. All things will become yours as you run after Me. Chase Me down. Allow your heart to run after Mine fully. Yes, even into the secret things that I have laid up for those who will run after Me.
Take time to still your heart before Me. In these times I will cause you to know Me and to know what is upon My Great Heart. Then you can run with Me through the villages, gathering choice fruit for Father.

My love, My beautiful bride-to-be ... don't waste your time on earthy things. Instead pursue Me and My Kingdom and I will set the rest in order. I will cause all things to become peaceful ... even in the midst of the storms that must come, Occupy!

A Light Unto My Path

^{Psalm 19:8} The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

^{Psalm 119:105} Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.

^{Proverbs 6:23}For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life.

Hear My Trumpet!

^{1 Corinthians 14:6} Now, brothers and sisters, if I come to you and speak in tongues, what good will I be to you, unless I bring you some revelation or knowledge or prophecy or word of instruction? ⁷ Even in the case of lifeless things that make sounds, such as the pipe or harp, how will anyone know what tune is being played unless there is a distinction in the notes? ⁸ Again, if the trumpet does not sound a clear call, who will get ready for battle? ⁹ So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air. ¹⁰ Undoubtedly there are all sorts of languages in the world, yet none of them is without meaning. ¹¹ If then I do not grasp the meaning of what someone is saying, I am a foreigner to the speaker, and the speaker is a foreigner to me. ¹² So it is with you. Since you are eager for gifts of the Spirit, try to excel in those that build up the church.


What are you doing and what are you saying to expand My Kingdom? Are the sounds you are making clear? Or are they distorted by your own personal agendas and desires. I want you to see and hear clearly what is upon My Great Heart and enter into those things. Leave the rest to Me.

Provision can become a motivator, rather than Me. The seeking after what you do not have can become an idol. Covetousness stands at the door knocking ... especially to those who are poor. Do not open to it, rather resist its charms and instead seek after Me and My Kingdom. That is what you need the most. Always.

Allow Me to clarify what I am saying and doing by spending time in My Presence. As you spend time with Me, you will hear and understand what is upon My Great Heart. From that perspective you can enter into My labors most effectively. After all, who are you serving? Me or yourself?

I am purifying motives and motivators around the earth right now. Keep what produces fruit in your life and trim away what does not. Don't believe the rantings of those who claim they have your best interests at heart ... when all they talk with you about is your devotion to them. Look for those who tell you to seek My Kingdom and My Righteousness. Look to those who desire serious and long term relationship rather than a quick fix to your problems. My Kingdom is your cure and I truly love you. I am loving you enough right now to warn you of those who are trying to swerve your allegiance away from those who truly love and care for your soul. Hear My Trumpet!

To The Church In Lexington, Ketucky

Psalm 27 ¹ The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid? ² When the wicked advance against me to devour me, it is my enemies and my foes who will stumble and fall. ³ Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.⁴ One thing I ask from the LORD, this only do I seek: that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the LORD and to seek him in his temple. ⁵ For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his sacred tent and set me high upon a rock.⁶ Then my head will be exalted above the enemies who surround me; at his sacred tent I will sacrifice with shouts of joy; I will sing and make music to the LORD.⁷ Hear my voice when I call, LORD;  be merciful to me and answer me. ⁸ My heart says of you, “Seek his face!” Your face, LORD, I will seek. ⁹ Do not hide your face from me, do not turn your servant away in anger; you have been my helper. Do not reject me or forsake me, God my Savior. ¹⁰ Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me. ¹¹ Teach me your way, LORD; lead me in a straight path because of my oppressors. ¹² Do not turn me over to the desire of my foes, for false witnesses rise up against me, spouting malicious accusations.¹³ I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. ¹⁴ Wait for the LORD; be strong and take heart and wait for the LORD. 

My holy people; Today I send you a message, for a particular jurisdiction, a particular place in the earth, to a particular people, concerning what is upon My Great Heart for you. This message is for the Church of Lexington KY. My holy people of Lexington KY ... I have sent one of My emissaries into your midst for a season to plant seeds, to water and to give birth. This work has been done in secret and now I intend to cause it to flourish in your midst. The real question I have for the Church in Lexington KY is this; "Will you cooperate with Me or will you continue in your own ways?" For I indeed have revived the origins and the namesake of your community. I have once again birthed My move into the area and it is now not a matter of whether I will do something, but whether you will accept My move in your midst. You see, I am moving mightily around the world. In America, I have had many outpourings and have tried time and time again to revive the hearts of My sleepy ones, but it has gone unnoticed and there is little desire to embrace what I would do. Instead the programs, the preacher shows and the long naps continue. In place of the existing; stay, pay and play program in the churches, I desire to move mightily in your midst ... raising up mighty warriors, mighty emissaries and mighty servants to go into your area, your region and the nations to expand My Kingdom. To do this you must repent. You must begin to call upon My Name. You must begin to wait upon Me to move and allow Me to have My way when I begin to move. Lexington Kentucky ... it is now your time of testing, to see if you will embrace My move or not. There is a remnant ... just a few that desire Me to have My way. That is all it really takes you know. So now I am speaking to that remnant and saying ... it is time. You are now in a different moment. You have been praising. You have been praying. Now you must begin moving ... with Me. Holy Spirit has instructions for you and wisdom for you and understanding for you. You cannot do this on your own. You never could do it that way. It will only work, as you embrace My move and being moving with Me. My move will not look like you want it to. It will look confused and will cause many to run away, not wanting what I am doing. The question is; who do you intend to please? Will you give into your fears or will you give your heart completely to My move? It is really up to you, the remnant in Lexington KY. You are not many. Really you are just a handful. But that is enough. That really is enough. Call a fast. Call an assembly. Call upon My Name. See Me move. Wait until I move. Don't move without Me. Don't you dare try to move forward without Me. Put everything on hold, except waiting on Me, following Me, doing what Holy Spirit empowers and energizes. I will show you how to move ahead. Together, I will show you how to move ahead. That is enough. It has always been enough. If you will do this, you will become a catalyst, you will become a testimony, of what the remnant can do when it truly calls upon the Name of the Lord. You can once again be called "The people that call upon the Name of the Lord" instead of the folks that have preacher shows and who; stay, pay and play. My move is to; reveal, deal and heal. Isn't it time the preacher shows end and you allow Me to move in the midst again? It is not at all like you read in the books. It is not at all like you hear in the conferences. You must repent and return to Me. That is My message to you Lexington KY. That is the message I have for you from My Great Heart. Great things are ahead, but you must abandon your old ways of doing things ... yes even the remnant. Nobody is moving with Me in Lexington KY. Nobody has embraced My move. Nobody has allowed Me to move as I desire in this region. But you can. All you have to do is make more room in your heart for Me. All you have to do is release your strangle hold on things and trust Me. Turn loose of your fears and follow Me. Seek My Face. Call upon My Name. Lexington Kentucky ... Come alive!

Whitney Houston & Jesus

Rest in peace, Ms. Houston.


The pop diva's death should remind us of an uncomfortable reality: People in church take drugs.
Anyone who has listened to Whitney Houston’s rendition of “I Love the Lord”—or who saw her perform with CeCe Winans and Shirley Caesar at the 1996 Grammy Awards—knows she had an incomparable voice best suited for gospel music. But Whitney chose a broader path: When the doors opened for her to make a pop album in the 1980s, it became the all-time best-selling debut album by a female artist. She became America’s diva.
But all her worldly success didn’t help her overcome her personal demons. Her stormy marriage was marred by domestic violence. She admitted in the 1990s that she took cocaine every day. She tried rehab three times over the course of eight years. Her voice was so damaged by her drug habit that people walked out of her comeback concert in London in 2010. She became a pathetic shell of her former self.

“Whitney Houston was not the only person who talked about Jesus yet struggled privately with cocaine or other illegal drugs. I frequently meet men and women at church altars who have never found the strength to kick their habit.”

Christians in the music industry reached out to Whitney and prayed with her during her up-and-down battle with addictions. But the drugs had a powerful pull. In 2006, a photo was released of her bathroom sink in Atlanta filled with crack pipes, drug paraphernalia, cigarettes and beer cans. Even after she divorced Bobby Brown in 2007, the downward spiral continued.
It all ended last week when Whitney’s body was found in her hotel bathtub in Los Angeles, just two days after she sang an impromptu version of “Jesus Loves Me” at a Hollywood nightclub. I’d like to believe it was a feeble cry to the God of her childhood.
The woman who knew Whitney Houston best—her mother, gospel singer Cissy Houston—has been deeply concerned about her daughter’s choices for years. During a 2009 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Whitney recalls her mother’s words: “I am not losing you to the world. I’m not losing you to Satan. I want my daughter back. I want to see the child I raised, and you weren’t raised like this.”
Her mother knew that Whitney’s choices—and perhaps the enormous temptations that come with worldwide fame—had taken her down a dangerous road.
I can’t judge Whitney, nor can I say whether or not she made it to heaven. Only God knows her private conversations with Him. I hope that somewhere underneath the tangled mess of her life she reached out to the Savior she sang about as a child while growing up at New Hope Baptist Church back in Newark, N.J.
What I can do is plead with Christians today to stop ignoring the monster of addiction that is killing so many people, including those who may be sitting next to you in church.
Let’s not kid ourselves. Whitney Houston was not the only person who talked about Jesus yet struggled privately with illegal drugs. I frequently meet men and women at church altars who have never found the strength to kick their habit. I even know of pastors, youth leaders and worship leaders who live double lives—hiding their addiction under the cloak of Sunday morning religion. They hide because they’re afraid they’ll be shunned or shamed if they ever admit their problem to anybody.
What we need is less judgment and more transparency about this problem. Drugs, including alcohol, are harsh taskmasters. Crack and crystal meth are impossible to overcome apart from serious intervention. Once a person’s brain is altered by these substances, he or she needs a miracle. Telling them to “Just say no” is not going to cut it.
But we can’t pretend people are OK when they are hooked on drugs. If the addiction continues, they are likely to end up dead. I agree with Cissy Houston that Satan was involved in Whitney’s sad journey. Hell is directly connected to every crack deal ever made.
If you are addicted, please be willing to seek help by admitting your problem to your pastor or a trusted Christian friend. If you have someone in your family who is addicted, don’t wait until it’s too late to intervene. Barge into their lives if necessary to show tough love. (And forward this article to them.)
If you are a pastor, extend mercy. Talk about addiction from the pulpit and make sure your congregation knows your church is a safe place to find healing. Then, identify effective Christian drug rehab ministries in your area and refer people there, especially if your church counseling team is not equipped to tackle hard cases.
Remember: Jesus has a message for anyone struggling with drugs: “Come to me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest” Matt. 11:28,
Whitney Houston’s death was tragic, but perhaps the warning that emerges from her story will end up saving lives.

Silly Sheep

Psalm 27 ¹The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?  ²When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. ³Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.⁴One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. ⁵For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.⁶And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD. ⁷Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. ⁸When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, LORD, will I seek. ⁹Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.¹⁰When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up. ¹¹Teach me thy way, O LORD, and lead me in a plain path, because of mine enemies.¹²Deliver me not over unto the will of mine enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against me, and such as breathe out cruelty. ¹³I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. ¹⁴Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the LORD.

My Holy People, There is a shift about to happen. A drastic shift that will cause those serving in My Kingdom to stand out from those that merely practice religion. This drastic shift will demonstrate for all to see the difference between those that embrace the gospel of salvation versus the gospel of the Kingdom. This shift will cause many to make more room in their hearts for Me. A great repentance will come. A great amount of change will come. Especially in the congregations across America.

My glory is already seen by the remnant. This shift will cause many outside the remnant to see My glory too. However what they will see is that My glory is not in their midst, but in the midst of those who preach the gospel of the Kingdom, making Kingdom disciples who will obey Me, who will obey My Word, who will obey My Great Commission.

Let me remind you of some things. What were the last words I spoke before ascending to Father?

 Acts⁷ He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. ⁸ But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Still, many run about speculating regarding dates or times. Even when I told you these were not the things to be concerned with ... you still run after knowledge, instead of doing what I have commissioned you to do.

Silly, poor people; don't you know that the times will never reach fruition until your work is done? Until the nations fully hear, I am held in heaven, awaiting the fulfillment of what you are to do. I can never come back until you take My commission to you seriously. I have told you plainly that you should make disciples of nations, but you instead want to speculate about judgment times and My return. Are you desiring to please Me or yourselves? Do you desire to do My will on earth, as I have designed it in heaven ... or instead do your will on earth as you have fashioned it in your own passions and desires.

A shift is about to occur that will reveal the real issues of repentance needed by My Church. This shift will cause many to speculate about days and times, while instead it should get people doing the work I have called them to do. When the shift occurs, it will become obvious to all who are following Me and who are following religion.

Where are you going? Do you have a destination in mind ... someplace you are following Me to? If not, you should really rethink your journeying. Those who follow Me have a destination in mind, and a process to get them there. Those who say they follow Me, but have no destination are wandering. Those who say they follow Me and say they have a destination, but have no process are deceived for without a way of getting to the destination, the journey cannot be made. I am searching over the whole earth right now for those willing to follow Me - to really follow Me. To these, I will open their blind eyes and allow them to see the destination I have in mind; not heaven, but earthly assignments that will be implementing My commission. To these I will also open their deaf ears and let them hear how I desire to take them there, allowing them to bear much fruit for Father. I am causing a shift that will suddenly cause people to see and hear and walk in My ways and according to the dictates of My Great Heart, not their own.

The blind will see. The deaf will hear. The lame will walk. All of this will happen to Father's glory. I will show the religious ones the folly of their own ways and even the world will see the difference and begin to be drawn to the real Kingdom living I have in store for those that follow Me.

Seek Me, follow Me. Open your eyes, open your hears and come to Me. Stop being silly sheep.

Have No Fear!

Isaiah 35:¹The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. ²It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing: the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the LORD, and the excellency of our God.³Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. ⁴Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompence; he will come and save you. ⁵Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. ⁶Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing: for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. ⁷And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land springs of water: in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. ⁸And an highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those: the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein  ⁹No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there: ¹⁰And the ransomed of the LORD shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads: they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.
My holy people; Hang on tight, for a lot of things are going to suddenly change. My Kingdom looks a lot different than you think. My gladness and joy can actually frighten some. My springs and rivers can cause some to become fearful and not know what is going on. Do not allow your fears of the new to stand in the way of embracing it. Revival is sorely needed in My Church. Without it you will burst. Without it you will be unable to do the things I have purposed in My Great Heart for you to do.
You may think, "Lord, I would never reject what you would be doing!" But I say that is exactly what you have done time after time after time. Generation after generation from the start has chosen to reject Me. Only the remnant, the core group of My followers who have no fear of man, no fear of change and no fear of being different will transition. Only the remnant has embraced and accepted My moves before. Sadly, this has been the consistent pattern from the start.
You see, I pour of Holy Spirit, causing a great revival to occur. Immediately the humble remnant embraces what I am doing and enjoy everything I am doing. At the same time the multitude chooses to immediately reject what I am doing and hates everything I am doing, blaming it on the adversary. Then a wilderness time comes ...
This is not My desire, to see rejecting of My move and a wilderness time to ensue. I have placed much in the hearts of people and I am looking for valiant ones who will not just lead the charge, but who will bravely advance with Me, even in spite of what the multitude says and does. I am looking for those who will receive My move ... and advance with it. This advance will take you further than My Church has ever gone before. And as you do, the multitude will take notice. They will see your advance and say in their hearts, "We have been mistaken, we have rejected the Lord and we repent right now."; then and only then will the shift occur across the Church and across the nations as I intend.
I am looking for those who will do everything from a position of victory.  Realizing it is time to advance, it is time to run, with Me. Have no fear!

God, Can I Ask You Something?

Me (in a tizzy) : God, can I ask you something?

GOD: Sure.

Me: Promise you won't get mad?

GOD: I promise.

Me (frustrated): Why did you let so much stuff happen to me today?

GOD: What do you mean?

Me: Well I woke up late,

GOD: Yes

Me: My car took forever to start,

GOD: Okay....

Me (growling): At lunch, they made my sandwich wrong and I had to wait

GOD: Hmmmm..

Me: On the way home, my phone went dead, just as I picked up a call

GOD: All right

Me (loudly): And to top it all off, when I got home, I just wanted to soak my feet in my foot massager and relax, but it wouldn't work. Nothing went right today! Why did you do that?

GOD: Well let me see..... the death angel was at your bed this morning and I had to send one of the other angels to battle him for your life.  I let you sleep through that.

Me (humbled): Oh...

GOD: I didn't let your car start because there was a drunk driver on your route that might have hit you if you were on the road

Me (ashamed): ............

GOD: The first person who made your sandwich today was sick and I didn't  want you to catch what they have, I knew you couldn't afford to miss work

Me (embarrassed): Oh.....

GOD: Your phone went dead because the person that was calling was going to give a false witness about what you said on that call, I didn't even let  you talk to them so you would be covered

Me (softly): I see God

GOD: Oh and that foot massager, it had a shortage  that was going to throw out all of the power in your house tonight. I didn't think you wanted to be in  the dark.

Me: I'm sorry God.

GOD: Don't be sorry, just learn to trust me.........in all things, the good and the bad

Me: I WILL trust you God

GOD: And don't doubt that my plan for your day is always better than your plan

Me: I won't God. And let me just tell you God, thank you for everything today.

GOD: You're welcome child. It was just another day being your God and I love looking after my children.


2 Samuel 22:31
31As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

Proverbs 3:5
5Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

Hebrews 2:13
And again, I will put my trust in him. And again, Behold I and the children which God hath given me.

Kingdom Living

Isaiah 61 ¹The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; ²To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; ³To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified. ⁴And they shall build the old wastes, they shall raise up the former desolations, and they shall repair the waste cities, the desolations of many generations. ⁵And strangers shall stand and feed your flocks, and the sons of the alien shall be your plowmen and your vinedressers. ⁶But ye shall be named the Priests of the LORD: men shall call you the Ministers of our God: ye shall eat the riches of the Gentiles, and in their glory shall ye boast yourselves. ⁷For your shame ye shall have double; and for confusion they shall rejoice in their portion: therefore in their land they shall possess the double: everlasting joy shall be unto them. ⁸For I the LORD love judgment, I hate robbery for burnt offering; and I will direct their work in truth, and I will make an everlasting covenant with them. ⁹And their seed shall be known among the Gentiles, and their offspring among the people: all that see them shall acknowledge them, that they are the seed which the LORD hath blessed. ¹⁰I will greatly rejoice in the LORD, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her jewels. ¹¹For as the earth bringeth forth her bud, and as the garden causeth the things that are sown in it to spring forth; so the Lord GOD will cause righteousness and praise to spring forth before all the nations.My holy people; while I was on the earth I demonstrated for you, who you are to become. I demonstrated the Kingdom wherever I went. That is what is upon My Great Heart for you, 

My holy people. I desire that wherever you go, you will demonstrate My Kingdom. Not in preacher shows and in religious settings. No, My works are to be done for all to see, among the people who I send you. You are to be just like Me, just as I spoke of here in this scripture.You are to announce good news to the poor. Yes, to the poor. These are the ones that I send you to. Having nothing of their own, they are hungry and thirsty. They know they don't have anything. So when they hear of the good news of the Kingdom, they come running to Me and likewise share Me with all those around them. You are to announce good news to the poor. Not the rich. Not those who are satisfied and self-centered. I want you to announce the good news to the poor, for these are the fruitful soil I send you to. You are to heal the brokenhearted. I didn't say you were to pray for the brokenhearted. No, I want you to heal the brokenhearted. Don't leave them in their condition. Don't stop at words alone. Don't walk away from what I desire you to do and to be. Take their broken hearts and heal them. Remember, the Spirit is upon you, because I have anointed you. Yes, that means you are to heal not just broken bodies, but you are to heal the brokenhearted.You are to proclaim freedom to the captives ... and to let out into light those bound in dark places. It is time to really set the prisoners free and to lead those out of prison that are still lingering there. My Great Heart beats with passion for those who have become prisoners of the adversary. I don't stand wagging My finger and proclaiming judgment upon them for opening doors for the adversary. No, I don't come as judge, for in this time I am appointed to be the One that comes with mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment. I would have you proclaim freedom and then to lead them out.My holy people; proclaim favor upon My people and proclaim vengeance of God upon all the works of the enemy. For this purpose I was manifested ... to destroy all the works of the evil one. You are to do the same. You are living in a time of grace, a season of grace. A time when there is great hope for those who turn their hearts to Me. Yes, this world will be judged, but I am not yet the judge. I am the Lamb slain for the sins of the world. This is who I am at this time. Let all know of the great favor and that I will bring justice to those who follow Me.My holy people; comfort those who mourn. Yes, the poor in spirit, the brokenhearted, easily mourn and I require you to bring real, demonstrable comfort to those who mourn, those in My Kingdom who mourn. Not stopping there; give them garlands of celebration, oil of gladness and a cloak of praise. While I was on the earth, I was anointed with the oil of joy above all around Me. I want you to have that much joy, that you can actually become contagious with this joy and give it to others. I did it. I caused the sinners to rejoice. I caused the tax collectors and the prostitutes and the criminals to rejoice ... and in turn to become oaks of righteousness. These are the chief disciples to those who truly follow Me. It is not the nice people who hide their secret sins. It is those that were sin that become My oaks of righteousness. With great joy and celebration ... they come running out of ruin and into My Kingdom.These, your offspring, will rebuild the ancient ruins, restore sites long destroyed, and renew the ruined cities. These will bear much fruit for Father and lay it joyfully at His feet. I have a much different picture of who you are to be, than religion has taught you. I have a much different pattern for living and reproducing and becoming fruitful for My Kingdom than the preachers tell you. There is more to Kingdom living than singing songs and greeting friends. There is much more substance to who I want you to be. You see, it is not at all about you - it is about them.Preacher shows are no place to find the poor, the brokenhearted, the captives or the mourners. You must go out to these and do your work among them. You must break out of the cloisters and monasteries ... into the rich harvest fields that surround you. Yes, that means you! You won't impress the poor or the brokenhearted or the bound or the mourning with how much you know. These are useless when it comes to real ministry. You must depend solely on Holy Spirit and My anointing that is upon you. Then you will connect with the hearts of others and minister to them. Yes, you are My ministers, as you do these things.So many are waiting for Me to bring these people to the preacher shows. I didn't tell you to bring them into the preacher shows. I told you to go to them. Go and announce the good news of the Kingdom. Go heal. Go proclaim freedom. Go comfort and provide. You are building My army in the earth that will go rebuild, restore and renew. Go in Holy Spirit and by My anointing. Go and demonstrate Kingdom Living.
