The Oil Spill Prophetically

All the news lately has been about the oil spill/leak in the gulf of Mexico. Deep Horizon.

Blame has been applied. Guilty have been accused.

People in leadership and corporations are being demonstrated on a world stage that strip naked the idea that they have any answers. The blame is ample.

Here is what the Lord has shown me about this:

  • The oil spill will be worse than first thought. Much of what has been done is counterproductive.
  • Action that could have been taken has not because of incompetence at high levels.
  • The oil spill damage will seem to be irreversible for a while. THEN, amazing things will happen. Storms that many think will aggravate the problem will be a solution. The volume of Oil will become a benefit in that organisms that degrade oil biotically will have plenty to feast on. There will be rapid degradation of the oil from sunlight, heat, wind and storms.
  • While there will be death of some sea life, and pollution of others, the ecological systems will recover and people will be amazed at how quickly. It will be considered a miracle.
  • This is NOT the beginning of sorrows. This disaster will be considered to be a death, but like Lazarus, will demonstrate the Glory of God.
  • Those who are predicting death and destruction from this will be wrong.

What Father is saying is Repent. If people will repent, turn from their wicked ways and turn to God, then he will heal their land and the sea. This catastrophe can be recovered by repentance.

If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. 2 Chronicles 7:14

To look at it another way, if the proud ignore God, and remain wicked, then Heaven will shut the door, sin will be retained and the land will suffer.

The choice is ours.

A PLACE OF NO REPUTATION

A PLACE OF NO REPUTATION By David Wilkerson

At one time, Moses had been held in high esteem, respected in high government
places, great in reputation and prestige. He moved among the wealthy and was
one of the best-known men of his time. But when God spoke to him out of the
burning bush (see Exodus 3:5), Moses had decreased to zero point.

God couldn't use him until he tore him away from his worldly attachments. Who
knew Moses now? Hidden away, out of sight—silenced and without influence. He
had no outlet for his great energy.

But the very moment Moses reached zero point—when his reputation was totally
lost and there was nothing left of the old, self-assured Moses—he was on holy
ground!

How long did God wait by that bush, ready to break forth in a glorious new
revelation? Only until that final, breaking moment when Moses truly no longer
cared about his work or his reputation. When he gave up the last scraps of
self-reliance, he found revelation.

The Lord Jesus stood on this same holy ground. The Scriptures say, "He made
himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant..."
(Philippians 2:7).

Shunning reputation and becoming a servant was a willful choice. Thank God for
those who once again are being called to such holy ground, seeking to decrease
that he may increase, and prepared for servanthood.

One great man of God wrote, "The man of God who truly preaches the Word will
finally give up the idea of being known. If he preaches Christ, his reputation
will constantly decrease and Christ will increase. True prophets die unknown.
God gives them their dues only after they die."

I believe that if we seek a larger, more widespread reputation, something is
missing in our message. Self is too prominent. Christ should be gaining and we
should be losing recognition. We should be less known as the years go by until,
like Paul, we end up shut in with God.

May we all decrease! May he alone increase! God help us to get back to this
holy ground.

Leaving a Fellowship without a Curse to Follow

If we understand the order of Scripture we see a pattern that is important and needful. No one can leave unless the leaving is a clean break with a blessing. Otherwise a curse will result.

If you must leave, go to the leaders you are leaving and tell them honestly that you are. Burn no bridges. Leave in Love. Never just slink out the side door. Ask for a blessing on your future. It should not and will not be withheld, or there is another curse of division that will propagate in the house. Strive such that in the future you will be able to have anyone anywhere contact those you left and they will hear a good report.

If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Romans 12:18
not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing. 1 Peter 3:9

Church splits come because of a leaving that was not in order. The church that resulted from a split will end up in a split. The spirit of split remained and cursed them. If you are going to leave, you must be certain that any of that spirit will not follow you. Anger and dissension are a spirit.

I have had to leave several fellowships over the years.....but always did so in order, with a blessing.

And, any of those people that I had to leave would acknowledge that it was in order.

The spirit of split, conflict, dissension, anger, division will destroy any ministry that allows it to invade. One of the reasons I am so impressed with the ministry of an Apostle I am in the process of encouraging to greatness is that he maintains relationship with those he left as positive. They see him as one they sent. An Apostle.

There is a time to leave a fellowship...knowing when and how is wisdom and discernment. Doing so without can be ruin that will follow you for decades hobbling any ministry you intend.

God called you to endure suffering because Christ suffered for you. He left you an example so that you could follow in his footsteps. 1 Peter 2:21
Be mindful of the spirit in which you depart... or as the Nunc dimittis says:

Luke 2:29-32 (New American Standard Bible)

29 "Now Lord, You are releasing Your bond-servant to depart in peace,
According to Your word;
30 For my eyes have seen Your salvation,
31 Which You have prepared in the presence of all peoples,
32 A LIGHT OF REVELATION TO THE GENTILES,
And the glory of Your people Israel."

The word of Knowledge in Evangelizing a Muslim Man

"My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me." - John 10:27

An Englishman tells a true story of his encounter with a Muslim man while walking in the country. The Englishman wanted to share the gospel with this man but knew little of Muslim beliefs. The two men talked as they walked and agreed they would each share their beliefs with one another. The Muslim went first and dominated the time of sharing. The Englishman asked the Holy Spirit how to share his faith with the Muslim man. "Do you consider your god your father who speaks?" asked the Englishman.

"Certainly not," replied the Muslim man.

"That is one of the big differences between your god and my God. I consider my God as my Father who speaks to me personally."

"You cannot prove that," stated the Muslim man.

The Englishman again prayed to himself, "Lord, how do I prove this to this man?" A few moments later the two men began walking toward two young ladies on the other side of the road coming toward them. As they approached, the Englishman spoke to the ladies and made small conversation. He then said to one woman, "I believe you are a nurse, is that correct?"

The woman was startled that a man whom she had never met had just informed her of her occupation. "How would you know that? I have never met you before," she questioned.

He replied, "I asked my Father and He told me." The Muslim had his proof.

Many of us do not hear God's voice because we do not believe He speaks or desires to speak to us. In order to hear, we must listen. In order to listen, we must believe that He speaks. Ask the Lord today for a listening ear so that others might know that you have a heavenly Father who speaks.

For the Tribulation You Are Enduring is Proving that My Kingdom is Expanding - Mark Chironna


Mark J. Chironna

The following was prophesied by Bishop Mark Chironna on May 11, 2010 at The Master's Touch International Church in Longwood, Florida:

Word of the Lord: "Believe also in Me. For I see the days of your journey in this season and I hear the cries of your soul. I know the threats of the enemy, for he has come more subtly to you than he has in the past—and it has made you more aware of your need for absolute dependence on Me for victory. For I would have you to operate at a deeper level of intimacy with Me and I would have you consider the sufferings in this season as momentary, light afflictions.

"For an hour is coming on the earth when those who do not know Me will reel and stagger like a drunken man. For I have allowed judgment to begin at the house of My people, and I have seen your warfare, and I have seen those that have come against you in the Spirit, and I have felt your infirmities.

"But allow the love that I have placed in you, My love, to constrain you. The enemy knows no sacred territory. For him, everything is permissible and he will touch even the most sacred places in your life to see and test and examine if you will walk in the love that I shed abroad in your heart. For I know the warfare you are enduring and I know the affliction with which you are afflicted.

"And I have heard the cry of many that have said, 'Lord, how long the night?' It matters not how long the night, it does matter how great your trust in Me is. For weeping may endure for the night, but know this, I am God and there is none beside Me! And while weeping may endure for the night, I want to assure you, joy will come in the morning.

"I Am Going to Sovereignly Deliver My People From this Season"

"I am going to sovereignly deliver My people from this season that has been prolonged; but it will be out of the purifying of their faith out of the furnace of affliction, as it was in the days of Daniel and the three Hebrew boys, as they fought the forces of Babylon and the princes and powers that ruled in that realm.

"I am ultimately in charge and the fire will not harm thee, neither will there be the smell of smoke; for I will deliver you from the fire, as I did the three Hebrew boys, and I will shut the mouths of the lions as I did for Daniel.

"Walk before Me and be thou mature and perfect, for I will display My strength through you even in your seasons of seeming great weakness. For the tribulation you are enduring is proving that My Kingdom is expanding. For I will not allow lesser gods to reign and rule over My people. But know that the power of My Cross is equal to any challenge and the Blood that I shed cannot be resisted by Hell itself. I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions. Walk the walk of faith, you are more than a conqueror," saith the Lord.

Prayer: "Father, I pray that You would attune our ears to what the Spirit is saying to the Church in this hour. I pray You would establish us in Your Word that we might even now recognize that in the dealings and processing we endure, we are in training for our ultimate reign and rule with Jesus in the ages to come. And remind us that, he that endures to the end shall be saved.

"I bless You, Father. Seal this word to our hearts, glorify Your Almighty Name."

A Word from the Apostle Paul to those who would be in Church Leadership

Paul would be appalled at some we place in leadership in Churches today...even some on TV, even some leading large churches. They are NOT qualified according to Paul. Take special note that Anointing, Signs, Wonders, Miracles, Preaching a great Sermon, being a Great Prophet (ouch) are NOT listed in the qualifications. IF we did use this measuring rod...many pulpits and TV programs would be vacant today. (from The Message paraphrase which puts this in rubber meeting road context)

1 Timothy 3

If anyone wants to provide leadership in the church, good! But there are preconditions:

A leader must be:
  • well-thought-of,
  • committed to his wife,
  • cool and collected,
  • accessible, and
  • hospitable.
  • He must know what he's talking about,
  • not be overfond of wine,
  • not pushy but gentle,
  • not thin-skinned,
  • not money-hungry.
  • He must handle his own affairs well,
  • attentive to his own children and having their respect.

For if someone is unable to handle his own affairs, how can he take care of God's church?
He must not be a new believer, lest the position go to his head and the Devil trip him up.

Outsiders must think well of him, or else the Devil will figure out a way to lure him into his trap.

The same goes for those who want to be servants in the church:
  • serious,
  • not deceitful,
  • not too free with the bottle,
  • not in it for what they can get out of it.
  • They must be reverent before the mystery of the faith,
  • not using their position to try to run things.
Let them prove themselves first.
If they show they can do it, take them on.

No exceptions are to be made for women—same qualifications:
  • serious,
  • dependable,
  • not sharp-tongued,
  • not overfond of wine.
  • Servants in the church are to be committed to their spouses,
  • attentive to their own children,
  • and diligent in looking after their own affairs.

Those who do this servant work will come to be highly respected, a real credit to Jesus.

From New Wineskins....on Synthetic Life

Scientists Create First Synthetic Cell, Opening New Era in Biology

Heralding a new era in biology, scientists for the first time have created a synthetic cell, completely controlled by man-made genetic instructions, which can survive and reproduce itself, researchers at the private J. Craig Venter Institute announced Thursday.

“We call it the first synthetic cell,” said genomics pioneer Craig Venter, who oversaw the project. “These are very much real cells.”

Created at a cost of $30 million, this experimental one-cell organism opens the way to the manipulation of life on a previously unattainable scale, several researchers and ethics experts said.

My main questions: Who are these experts? Did they consult the only one who matters? Who now gets to decide what new life forms get made?

Then the LORD God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of us in knowing good and evil. Now, lest he reach out his hand and take also of the tree of life and eat, and live forever” — therefore the LORD God sent him out from the garden of Eden to work the ground from which he was taken. He drove out the man, and at the east of the garden of Eden he placed the cherubim and a flaming sword that turned every way to guard the way to the tree of life. (Genesis 3:22-24)

“How you are fallen from heaven, O Day Star, son of Dawn! How you are cut down to the ground, you who laid the nations low! You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far reaches of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.’ But you are brought down to Sheol, to the far reaches of the pit. Those who see you will stare at you and ponder over you: ‘Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms, who made the world like a desert and overthrew its cities, who did not let his prisoners go home?’ (Isaiah 14:12-17)

A new Time Frame...From Monica Schmid

Dear saints of God Almighty, there is truly a shift in the spiritual realm:

WE ENTER THE TIME FRAME OF 2. THES 2:6-12:

And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time.

For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.

And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders,

And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.




Glory to Father and His righteous Son Jesus Christ

Receive the Truth and it will Break the Chains off your Neck

In earlier posts the Spirit of God has been dealing with me about receiving lies vs truth. It's hard to discern when a lie enters your realm to invade your spirit. There are biblical tests regarding truths and lies so we can reject the devious lies the enemy sends our way.

Some lies seem innocent and harmless enough. Some seem to be wrapped in good reason. Some tickle our ears and make us feel better, superior, in, connected. Some are lies that we tell ourselves and others so we fit our surroundings. It's a cultural lie. Yet, we must get beyond the boxes we live in and see truth as God sees it. Truth is Jesus; The way, truth, life. Does what we believe come to the father unashamed and whole; OR does it wither in the sun of righteousness' bright light? Would you stand and proclaim this before the Bema seat of Jesus as he judged your works as a truth you stand on in that hour? Or would it fall as burnt straw?

The first test of a lie is how does it mesh with the revealed truth of the Word of God? Not some distorted interpretation. Denominations and movements have taken the Word of God and abused it until it has become unrecognizable as truth. We must let the Word of God speak directly to you about who it is and what it means. What does the text say? What does it mean? How can we apprehend it's salience to who we are? Some of what we believe is in the Bible isn't and isn't truth. We must learn to hear the truth and not thru the filter of other's. Jesus when asked about the end of the age by his disciples started his dissertation with this warning: "BE NOT DECEIVED" Matthew 24:4. Apparently there was not only the potential but the probability that they could be. Later He says, "Deceiving as it were even the very elect" Matthew 24:24. So this deception potential is for us today.

I asked Father to show me red flags and green lights regarding truth and lies so we can keep ourselves from being taken in by the lies of the enemy:

  • Truth will take away fears...a lie will add to your fears
  • Truth will connect you with God...a lie will draw you further away
  • Truth will strengthen you...a lie will leave you weaker
  • Truth will give you more confidence....a lie will make you timid
  • Truth will make you stand strong in God...a lie will try to make you a victim
  • Truth will convince you of Righteousness in Jesus...a lie will make you feel guilty
  • Truth will build your sense of Self Worth...a lie will devalue who you are..and others
  • Truth will cause you to become a conqueror...a lie will make you feel oppressed...beaten
  • Truth will always make you feel free of burden...a lie will cause you to be overwhelmed
  • Truth will remove strongholds in your life...a lie will keep you in chains
  • Simply said, Truth will build you up.....a lie will tear you down

Each of those statements above are drawn directly from the word of God. He tells us that he wants us free of the Devil's lies and evil schemes. But we are easily beset. Taken down. Lies are easier to receive than truth. That's why we take them in...particularly thru our culture, media and entertainment.

In the past few days I have found myself in the place of defending the weak and innocent against those who would take advantage of or demean them. It has cost me. I do not fit in to the easy box of lies that many would like to place me. By the Spirit of God I will seek truth and expose lies. It is the job of the prophet to do so. To become salt and LIGHT in the world.

If all hate me on account of His Name...that was his Warning; I'm too far into this to be intimidated by that any more. Acts 1:8

Living Your Destiny by Graham Cooke

All of the tests you presently face are there to develop you into the person you need to be to live your destiny. Everything you are going through has been aligned by God to forge you into the person He has called you to be. Your destiny is unfolding before your very eyes. You have a battle to win, and He must prepare you for it.

When we embrace the idea that God has a plan for us, no issue should be able to stop us. The statement, “This situation will be the death of me,” is completely incorrect. The truth is that this situation will make you into who you are destined to be.

God partners with our present situation to prepare us for the future He has designed. He uses every test, every challenge, every hurdle, every issue to sharpen us for what is to come.

We can use the prophecies over our life to navigate our way through our present circumstance. God wants to establish intimacy as a way of life. He wants to cover us in His favor. This process starts by God establishing the fact that He is our source. Quietly and deliberately, God will strip away every crutch we have been relying on and obliterate anything that detracts from His ability to provide for us.

He wants to take away the false sense of security most of us have been clinging to. God is not in the business of playing second fiddle to anything—and certainly not to the many ways we try and take care of ourselves.

Lesson one is to go into the future and bring back the traits and intimacy we will need to fulfill our destiny. We must understand what that intimacy will look like. How must our relationship with God evolve and grow in order for us to become the person He has destined us to be?

When I was 31 years old, I had a dream about the kind of relationship with God I would have when I was 45. It was so alluring, so magnificent, so amazing, that I did not want to wait 14 years to get there. I was so hungry when I woke up that I immediately began to pray for that kind of intimacy to happen right away. I discovered something in the process of fighting for that word—I didn’t have to wait until I was 45 for it to come to pass. I had been looking prophetically at a 45-year-old who had lived in that intimacy for ten years!

Our timeline is not always God’s timeline. He often wants to bring breakthrough far sooner than we dare hope. I wanted that intimacy at age 31, thanks to God creating a deep hunger in me for it. I thought about it, meditated on it, prayed for it, and began to come into powerful times of worship. An hour worshipping God would turn into two and then three and sometimes six. I desperately wanted to know God, and God always answers an extreme desire for intimacy.

Prophetic words come to pass as our intimacy and reliance on God develops. Intimacy is a part of our destiny. Look at the prophetic words over your life and ask yourself about the intimacy you will need to live in that kind of wonder. Become hungry for that relationship, and your destiny will come into focus.

In Genesis 18:9, God says a remarkably simple thing about Abraham, His dear friend: “I have known him,” (NKJV). God wants that same intimacy with us, and has guaranteed that it can occur through the love and motivation of Jesus. Intimacy draws us and keeps us in the presence of God. Jesus taught on the importance of this relationship in John 15:4-5—
Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
Intimacy is a reciprocal act; there is exchange and dialogue. It is not a one-way street. There is interaction between us and the Lord Jesus, and that interaction results in us staying, dwelling, and remaining where God has put us in Christ.

The enemy wants to knock us out of that place of intimacy. He knows how key that relationship is to everything the Lord wants to accomplish, so he tries to poison it from the start. Without water, a seed won’t grow; the enemy wants to kill the seed of our destiny before we grow even a single inch. But our job is to be so established in an intimate relationship with God that nothing can come between us and Him.

“Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties; And see if there is any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting,” David sang in Psalm 139:23-24. That is the very crux of intimacy—allowing God to look deep into us and remove any blockage between Him and us. Everything in our lives, every situation we go through, is about growing our intimacy with God.

The Pentecostal Papers By Prophet Dedric Hubbard

As we reach Pentecost this season those who understand the significance of Israel to the coming of the Lord should have paid attention to the feasts that have been taken place as they have been related and align in with America . Although I am no Jewish or American historian I do understand and hear the voice of the Lord so as many should have felt a power surge and a releasing in their spirit that burns like never before it is to these individuals that the Lord has instructed me to pen this revelation concerning this end-time mission. It is with that unction of the Holy Spirit that I obey and write as it is revealed from heaven to earth. In which this is not an attempt to gain notoriety, engagements, and power position in the church in which the heathens seek, but is an attempt to call the kingdom to its position and pull the church out of the depths of hell. Although I do make mentioned of heavenly experiences it is in those experiences something are not said but simply imparted into you spiritually it is in one of these experiences in which I write. We must understand the nature, time and practices of those things we have learned may have been wrong because of incorrect revelations made from limited knowledge of the Lord and other obstacles that may have hindered us from hearing the truth. It is those hindrances that concern the Lord so we have now entered into a season where he will perfect those things that concern him.

Romans 28: 30-31 “ And Paul dwelt two whole years in his own hired house, and received all that came in unto him, preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching those things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ, with all confidence, no man forbidding him.

We have entered into a season where God is releasing a remnant to bring in a remnant any person, ministry, church or whatever if you claim Jesus as Lord there are biblical guidelines that you must follow in order to be a body in the bride of Christ. For this task there has to be some intense in house cleaning and judging therefore, he has released the anointing of Elijah for this task we must understand there are traditions, religion, and bondages that the church has taken on that are not of God. These prophets are equipped, and are anointed with the anointing to handle this task, we must understand the Elijah anointing is first confrontational which means if it’s not of God it will be addressed, Elijah was a prophet which means this is a prophetic anointing although many may operate under this mantle only few will actually walk in the exact anointing as he did his anointing was also a leadership anointing in which an actual leadership mantle has been given to certain individuals which will enable them to understand, equip, and lead people supernaturally, As they teach, preach and instruct the things of God about the kingdom confident in God and themselves people who try to rebuke, correct, or take a that ain’t God viewpoint will be overlooked. Not because of a prideful attitude they must speak as it is given and clarification will be given as it is released. There mission is not to debate the word but speak as God unction from the throne, because of the nature of their character they never enter into a war of words in the first stage of their mission is to inform. Therefore, if this is your season never respond to a critic’s criticism in time the anointing and the Word will work for you.

So as I begin to address God’s concerns there are certain parts of a prophet’s mantle that is used in accordance with God’s will and emotion on a subject which will vary from mild to harsh because the whole Bible will be used to understand the nature and character in which God wish to reveal himself through us. In this we shall see a lot of what has been consider part of church are subtle pieces that have been adopted and no one failed to question and/or address them but it wouldn’t be a loving God to address our wrongs to make them right. Let us begin with the list of God’s concerns.

Concerning leadership

Ephesians 2:19-20 “Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God’s people and members of God’s household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.”

God’s concern with the church is that it is out of order, unstable, prideful, and self-destructive and in its present state is unteachable, ignorant and self-serving. This has been done by incorrect revelations, hidden agendas, motives, and deceitful practices all done under the wording the Lord says. It is with that concern God would like to address this issue what is stated in this particular scripture is not too spiritual, deep, or takes a lot of studying to interpret. It speak plainly and openly with that being said if your church, gatherings, or ministry doesn’t have the two key pieces of the foundations in house or have access to it for now(for they will need to be in house for perfection). Then you are still foreigners and aliens according to scripture the reason many will disagree and have trouble believing what God is doing is because they are missing biblical, scriptural, foundational pieces apostles and prophets.

Concerning Gifts

Ephesians 4:11 “He gave some apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors, and teachers.”

It is of great pain in God’s heart that many have fail to understand the true nature and position of why our Lord would leave such vitals gifts for us not to partake of all of their services. God states it is with great concern that he puts emphasis on these gifts. Because of misunderstanding, ignorance of responsibility, failure to seek understanding by the Holy Spirit and traditions, that the church has been misinformed which has led to an unstable foundation. I will give deeper understanding as God has relayed them to me at a later date this is just a formal introduction.

1st Corinthians 12:28 “And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers then workers of miracles, also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others, those with gifts administrations, and those speaking in different kinds of tongues.

In this particular scripture we must pay attention to who appoints it is evident that Paul understood God appoints people to certain functional gifts in the church.

It is interesting to note that when the correct foundations are in place, working in the correct setting people who have other gifts begin to manifest into service. It is also of interest to note that when God appointed foundations are in place the evangelists and pastor are not listed, does it mean they are unimportant by all means no because they are a part of the body. But what God is relying in this particular passage is that when the correct foundations are in place the anointing flows with ease and everything else fall in line or in other words they fall in order. For when the church comes to order my word will be performed at my word demons shall run, at my word the lame will run, at my word the dead shall rise, at my word the world will see my best my people will rise and my kingdom will grow. For what is obedience and sacrifice to profit a man when there is no order in the house? I will set my house in order by the words of my prophets’ mouth.

Concerning Pastors Jeremiah 3:15 “And I will give you pastors according to mine heart, which shall feed you with knowledge and understanding.”

Most popular verse in church history when referring to pastors I have no problem with any pastors in my past or within my future as long as they are operating according to biblical standards. With that being said we understand that God’s word will not return void, we understand that God is a God of order, we understand that obedience is better than sacrifice, we understand according to scripture what the foundation of God’s church should be built upon. Yes, the anticipation is building and yes I am about to say what so many have failed or maybe it has been reserved for this end-time season and because I have been spoiled by the knowledge and anticipation of God’s return I have no reason but to address this concern. For if anyone agrees it is fine anyone disagrees it is fine as with Moses when he build the ark there were only a select few that came aboard, I have been trained to stand alone, flat-footed, and eyes on the prize. To tell you Houston we have a problem. God states that a pastor is not the foundation of the church and because of incorrect revelation and failure to preach the Gospel in its entirety the church has assumed that the pastor is the foundation. We have reached a dimension in God in order to go up you must come down to be considered a pastor after God’s heart in this season you must speak God’s heart. And God heart is order in the church. For yes son there are many who have deceived the flock preaching about riches that they don’t even own. I have come to reclaim that which is mine the gold and the silver, the money and the clothes, the watch and the jewelry everything I own. The homes and the islands the hidden riches of deceit, the Jaguars, Rolls Royce’s, and the summer homes I have come with my rewards in hand to take everything that you stole from the sheep. Because you desired your rewards in this world I will reward you openly with pestilence and curse if you fail to release my sheep you are holding hostages for the sake of pride. I the Lord says surprise. It is God’s heart that any ministry that calls itself a follower of Christ must have the correct foundation it has been burned in my heart that God states if the correct foundation, correct people, correct respect, correct anointing is not in place you are not bride material.

It is this cause that God will establish his kingdom through order which means it is now the pastor job to preach and teach the correct foundation. If a pastor is unsure they must be led by The Holy Spirit of which prophetic voice to come in and tear down, uproot, and destroy any man-made traditions, religion, and bondages. After the strongholds have been dealt with then there will be a building upon proper foundations depending on the ministries by then the apostolic movement will begin to take place and therefore, the foundations will begin operating in biblical order. The question remains what about the pastor yes I do have the revelation in which position the pastor will take in this movement in order to see who speaks God’s heart it will be released later. So if by any means if you are offended go ahead keep your ministry but to be God’s it has to be in order. And so this concludes the first installment of The Pentecostal Papers and I will be one of your tour guides on this mission of church restoration. Far be it from me to explain to you the position I take on this matter I don’t debate the word, I don’t argue the word, I don’t respond to criticism. I just say the word and watch it manifest. For the people I release are of my special blend indwelling of my Holy Spirit, my son’s heart, and the power I allow them to partake of to speak against my people because you have been blinded by cares. I fight there battles because they have a job at hand to build my kingdom to manifest through the land. Who has the power to use who he choose? I the Lord can my people have been deceived by worldly beings prepare for a manifestation of supernatural beings walking according to the principals of my power. Who I have raised up they stand like a strong tower. Destroying the devils work in this very hour as Pentecost approaches the standards will get higher as I prepare the world for Holy Ghost fire. “Let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the powers that be are ordained of God. Therefore he that resisteth the power withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment. For rulers is not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? Do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same; for he is a minister of God to thee for good. Enough said change has come from now on it has to be in The Book.

This has been a public service announcement any heartache, pain, and embarrassment should be reported to God. He can be reached on your knees in the form of heaven has come to earth.

Psalm 83 and the Coming Mid East War

Recently a posted word appeared on this blog. I have received several responses that cite Psalm 83. It is worth considering the Prophetic significance of these writings. The coincidences are just too dramatic to be incidental. Particularly what the Rabbi says. I do NOT have great joy over this; I have the same emotion as the writer of the Psalm does...Asaph. Let God arise and his enemies be scattered.

Psalm 83 (the Message)

An Asaph Psalm
1-5 God, don't shut me out;
don't give me the silent treatment, O God.
Your enemies are out there whooping it up,
the God-haters are living it up;
They're plotting to do your people in,
conspiring to rob you of your precious ones.
"Let's wipe this nation from the face of the earth,"
they say; "scratch Israel's name off the books."
And now they're putting their heads together,
making plans to get rid of you.

6-8 Edom and the Ishmaelites,
Moab and the Hagrites,
Gebal and Ammon and Amalek,
Philistia and the Tyrians,
And now Assyria has joined up,
Giving muscle to the gang of Lot.

9-12 Do to them what you did to Midian,
to Sisera and Jabin at Kishon Brook;
They came to a bad end at Endor,
nothing but dung for the garden.
Cut down their leaders as you did Oreb and Zeeb,
their princes to nothings like Zebah and Zalmunna,
With their empty brags, "We're grabbing it all,
grabbing God's gardens for ourselves."

13-18 My God! I've had it with them!
Blow them away!
Tumbleweeds in the desert waste,
charred sticks in the burned-over ground.
Knock the breath right out of them, so they're gasping
for breath, gasping, "God."
Bring them to the end of their rope,
and leave them there dangling, helpless.
Then they'll learn your name: "God,"
the one and only High God on earth.

Prophetic Reaction?

Revelation 8:8 Then the second angel sounded: And something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea, and a third of the sea became blood.9 And a
third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

Why didn't Jesus just Stop This? He could have.

Jesus Speaks words over the religious systems, Jerusalem and the coming holocaust.

Matthew 23
13 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you shut the door of the Kingdom of Heaven in people’s faces. You won’t go in yourselves, and you don’t let others enter either.[e]

15 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you cross land and sea to make one convert, and then you turn that person into twice the child of hell[f] you yourselves are!

16 “Blind guides! What sorrow awaits you! For you say that it means nothing to swear ‘by God’s Temple,’ but that it is binding to swear ‘by the gold in the Temple.’ 17 Blind fools! Which is more important—the gold or the Temple that makes the gold sacred? 18 And you say that to swear ‘by the altar’ is not binding, but to swear ‘by the gifts on the altar’ is binding. 19 How blind! For which is more important—the gift on the altar or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 20 When you swear ‘by the altar,’ you are swearing by it and by everything on it. 21 And when you swear ‘by the Temple,’ you are swearing by it and by God, who lives in it. 22 And when you swear ‘by heaven,’ you are swearing by the throne of God and by God, who sits on the throne.

23 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are careful to tithe even the tiniest income from your herb gardens,[g] but you ignore the more important aspects of the law—justice, mercy, and faith. You should tithe, yes, but do not neglect the more important things. 24 Blind guides! You strain your water so you won’t accidentally swallow a gnat, but you swallow a camel![h]

25 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are so careful to clean the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside you are filthy—full of greed and self-indulgence! 26 You blind Pharisee! First wash the inside of the cup and the dish,[i] and then the outside will become clean, too.

27 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs—beautiful on the outside but filled on the inside with dead people’s bones and all sorts of impurity. 28 Outwardly you look like righteous people, but inwardly your hearts are filled with hypocrisy and lawlessness.

29 “What sorrow awaits you teachers of religious law and you Pharisees. Hypocrites! For you build tombs for the prophets your ancestors killed, and you decorate the monuments of the godly people your ancestors destroyed. 30 Then you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would never have joined them in killing the prophets.’

31 “But in saying that, you testify against yourselves that you are indeed the descendants of those who murdered the prophets. 32 Go ahead and finish what your ancestors started. 33 Snakes! Sons of vipers! How will you escape the judgment of hell?

34 “Therefore, I am sending you prophets and wise men and teachers of religious law. But you will kill some by crucifixion, and you will flog others with whips in your synagogues, chasing them from city to city. 35 As a result, you will be held responsible for the murder of all godly people of all time—from the murder of righteous Abel to the murder of Zechariah son of Barachiah, whom you killed in the Temple between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 I tell you the truth, this judgment will fall on this very generation.

Jesus Grieves over Jerusalem
37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the city that kills the prophets and stones God’s messengers! How often I have wanted to gather your children together as a hen protects her chicks beneath her wings, but you wouldn’t let me. 38 And now, look, your house is abandoned and desolate.[j] 39 For I tell you this, you will never see me again until you say, ‘Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the Lord!’[k]”

Matthew 24
Jesus Foretells the Future
1 As Jesus was leaving the Temple grounds, his disciples pointed out to him the various Temple buildings. 2 But he responded, “Do you see all these buildings? I tell you the truth, they will be completely demolished. Not one stone will be left on top of another!”

3 Later, Jesus sat on the Mount of Olives. His disciples came to him privately and said, “Tell us, when will all this happen? What sign will signal your return and the end of the world?[a]”

4 Jesus told them, “Don’t let anyone mislead you, 5 for many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah.’ They will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and threats of wars, but don’t panic. Yes, these things must take place, but the end won’t follow immediately. 7 Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. 8 But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come.

9 “Then you will be arrested, persecuted, and killed. You will be hated all over the world because you are my followers.[b] 10 And many will turn away from me and betray and hate each other. 11 And many false prophets will appear and will deceive many people. 12 Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And the Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations[c] will hear it; and then the end will come.

15 “The day is coming when you will see what Daniel the prophet spoke about—the sacrilegious object that causes desecration[d] standing in the Holy Place.” (Reader, pay attention!) 16 “Then those in Judea must flee to the hills. 17 A person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack. 18 A person out in the field must not return even to get a coat. 19 How terrible it will be for pregnant women and for nursing mothers in those days. 20 And pray that your flight will not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For there will be greater anguish than at any time since the world began. And it will never be so great again. 22 In fact, unless that time of calamity is shortened, not a single person will survive. But it will be shortened for the sake of God’s chosen ones.

Why didn't Jesus Pray and stop this? He's God. He could have. Many believers died in this holocaust. Sometimes Prophecy just IS....a warning. Nothing else.

The Mandate of the Prophet...not to draw back



Today's Prayer
Dear God, I want to feel your presence in my life in a greater way. I want more of you, to draw closer to you. I want to keep my priorities straight, to have my sight focused on you and my life to revolve around you. Please help me to balance my life--my work, church, family, friends, ministry time, and devotional time with you. Please give me wisdom and strength to do what is right in all that I must do. And I thank you, God, for guiding me and blessing me in so many ways, and for working in me to do your good will. In Jesus' name I pray and praise you. Amen.


A Two-Way Relationship
TGIF Today God Is First Volume 1, by Os Hillman
05-14-2010

"He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being taught." - Isaiah 50:4b

The prophet Isaiah describes his relationship to God as a relationship that has two-way communication. Have you ever felt that your communication with God was only one way - you to Him only? Isaiah tells us, "The Sovereign Lord has given me an instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary.... The Sovereign Lord has opened my ears, and I have not been rebellious; I have not drawn back" (Is. 50:4-5).

The key to Isaiah's relationship with God lies in four important principles:

1. He had an instructed tongue. Isaiah had given over rule of his life completely to God's purposes.

2. He knew the word of the Lord, which allowed him to sustain and encourage others.

3. He took time to listen.

4. He did not flee from the tough assignments. He didn't shrink back.

If we are to be able to listen to God, we must follow the same principles. Knowing and spending time studying God's Word allows the Holy Spirit to bring to mind His instructions for what He wants for us. Recently, I became very busy in my work and other activities. It wasn't long before I felt distance between God and me. I had to make a conscious decision to carve out more time alone to listen, study, and meditate on His Word. This is the lifeline for the follower of Jesus. When we begin to lose the relationship, we are susceptible to becoming rebellious, going our own way. Invest your life in this relationship so that you may continue to hear His voice and sustain the weary ones around you.

The Pointed Gun and Finger on the Trigger - The Prophetic Stirring

If you handle firearms as I have, you know this adage. Never point your weapon at anything or anyone you don't intend to kill. That goes double for placing your finger on the trigger.

Many in the prophetic community are starting to sense that there is a finger on a trigger. That in the next few months, this summer, there will be war in the Middle East. A Rabbi has been traveling around Israel trying to discern the times.

Here's part of his observation:
It's a two by two table. Either Israel takes the first round or strikes first. Either Tel Aviv gets the first BIG hit or Jerusalem. While the obvious scenario is with Tel Aviv, the market center getting hit, there is far more potency for Iran to strike Jerusalem hard. I'll come back to this later. No one here has any doubt that Iran has a big weapon and that they will use it. To play the American Game (like in 1991) will mean that Israel will have to wait for Iran to fire first. The longer that time plays out, the greater the risk that the first strike will be atomic. A Hiroshima sized weapon will hurt.

For Israel to attack first will immediately set off rocket bombardments from Syria and Hizbullah. The lunatics in Hamastan will also join in but they will be the first to feel the IDF fist. There will be no pulling punches this time. The question is whether the West Bankers will also open fire. The general Israeli feeling, given their training, is that the expectation is that all hell will break loose.

Israel has required all new housing to include bomb shelters--BIG ones built into the foundations of all new constructions--iron, steel, and thick concrete. These things will hold; so, the majority of damage will be real estate. Ironically, those at risk are those who have been flaunting the housing codes--many of the Israeli Arabs in the north. As in 2006, rockets can't tell the difference between believers and infidels.

In 2006, Hizbullah lacked both accuracy and power. This will not be the case in this war. Their fire power is hot and heavy. But they are up against a professional army that has been drilling and preparing constantly for the last four years under a tough and charismatic infantry soldier. This will not be an IAF war. The IDF is prepared. After the missiles, expect the Israelis response to be strong.

For a country where officials are not accountable in local elections directly to the electorate, there is a lot of road building, resurfacing, and repair going on. Virtually EVERY major roadway has been resurfaced right down to the matrix. Amazing. One might say that these roads are now able to handle loads of up to 50 tons on 18 wheels.
Read his whole analysis of what the summer war might be like. It's stirring.

There are observations made by some people on this side of the ocean.

Hizbullah is being armed to the teeth by Syria.
The Scud-D has been around for decades; why is it being transferred to Hezbollah at this particular moment? There are two likely reasons:
(1) the White House has become the most prominent Western critic of Israel, and Syria is confident that President Obama will not do much to either punish an Israeli enemy or speak clearly in Israel's defense;
(2) under the Obama Doctrine, many enemies of America are treated with kindness in order to prove that they should not fear us, under the theory that once the fear is gone, there will be very little to obstruct the progression of smooth relations. The engagement policy thus requires the overlooking of all kinds of bad behavior.
A writer in the Jerusalem Post the other day wrote this

Time to plan for war


In the coming war, Israel will have only one goal: to destroy or seriously damage Iran’s nuclear installations. Every resource turned against Iran’s proxies must be aimed at facilitating that goal. That is, the only thing Israel should seek to accomplish in contending with Syria, Hizbullah and Hamas is to prevent them from diverting Israeli resources away from attacking Iran’s nuclear installations.

This means that Israel must launch a preemptive strike against Hizbullah’s missiles and missile launchers, Syria’s missiles, artillery and launchers, and Hamas’s missiles and launchers. As for their short-range rockets, Israel should do its best to intercept them and otherwise hunker down to weather the storm of Katyushas and Kassams. Life of the homefront won’t be easy. But it won’t be impossible either, as we saw in 2006.
Israel is ready for war. Almost like national suicide bombers, the Islamic Countries are preparing for what will be certain death for their nations. Israel is poised to destroy them totally.

The Prophetic Stirring is for August. When Kings go out to war.

I don't have a clear word on this. There is much quiet preparation on both sides. The world will not watch this one from the sidelines. This event will have great impact spiritually, politially and economically. This is NOT the beginning of the war of Armageddon. This is a foreshadow.

When it happens, and I say WHEN because I believe the time is near, here are some of the ramifications:

  • Many countries will come against Israel for it's intense response. They will excuse the attack from Islamic Countries. I believe that the current administration will be among these critics. This will cause even more division in this country than ever. The result will be geophysically devastating
  • This will mobilize a strange alliance of the Jewish people who normally vote liberal in the USA and the Tea Party, not in rallies but in opposition to our tepid support leading to none of Israel.
  • The stock and commodity markets will go thru huge reactions to this event. Higher gold and Oil...to $150, and a stock market in the High 5000's. It will become a new trading range.
  • The mobilization of people to change our congress will accelerate. People will be intense. There will even be calls for the President to resign. Israel is a trigger and the Finger is on it.
  • Our lives will change if an when this happens. This will be a pivotal event. The world's economy s so weak this will tip it over.
  • Russia and China will come out stronger from this...that will lead to a move to "Settle Things". You know the book of Revelation. Look for that to come to pass.

Ignoring God's hand on Israel is not only foolish, but blindness.

The Plans of Tomorrow


TGIF Today God Is First Volume 1, by Os Hillman
05-13-2010

"You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes." - James 4:14b

A group of workplace believers meet at my office every week for fellowship, study, and prayer. One man attended our group for several years. Jim was well liked and in good health. One Thursday he showed up as usual. The next morning I received a call, "Jim is dead! He died in his easy chair last night!" Jim had no prior problems and there was no indication he was about to go be with the Lord. Naturally, it came as a shock to us all.

Whenever things like this happen close to home, it brings us face to face with our mortality. A friend of mine said he was challenged by someone to do an experiment. He challenged him to live his life for one year as if it were the last year he would live. He responded to the challenge and did as proposed. It changed his life forever. He began to focus on different priorities and people when he viewed life in these terms.

James gives us a perspective on viewing tomorrow.

Now listen, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money." Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, "If it is the Lord's will, we will live and do this or that" (James 4:13-15).

Life is fragile. Consider where you are investing your time and energies. Someone once said they had never heard anyone on his deathbed say that he wished he had made more money in his lifetime or he wished he had made a certain deal. Usually it is something like, "I wish I had spent more time with my kids." Ask the Lord to give you His priorities for your life.

Receive a Lie and it will put you in chains... The Culture of Murder

I am of German heritage. Lived in Germany for a few years. Speak it well. Love the people. Love the culture. Hate the fact that the culture was lied to and they bought it, in fact it was called the BIG LIE by Hitler. It worked so well it put the whole population in chains and led to it's downfall in losing a world war.

Hitler's big lie was, we are the chosen people, the Jews are keeping us down, oppressing us, It's all their fault, and we are supposed to be the master race. The big lie caused many to send sons to the Russian front to die for a lost cause. Sent unmarried women to bear blue eyed blond haired Aryan babies. And to stand by without objection to the brutal murder of Six Million Jews along with enforced euthanasia of their own relatives because they were old or flawed.

The big lie put my German brethren in chains...because they received it. The truth stared them in the face but they willingly received a lie.

In the Sioux Indian Culture there was the myth of the Ghost Shirt. They believed that if you did the Ghost Dance and if you wore the Ghost Shirt you would be invulnerable to the white man's bullets in warfare. It was a way the leaders of the tribe motivated people to go to war against overwhelming odds. The brave warriors went willingly trusting in the lie. They were killed mercilessly. The lie chained them to a certain death. The Big Lie from came from false Leaders.

Today in Islamic fundamentalist cultures the Big Lie behind blowing yourself and others up is that you will receive the gift of 72 virgins in heaven after you die this "noble" death. This big lie has put people, even families in chains that send their children out with bomb belts on. Martyrs are celebrated for their willingness to die for a lie. Mothers of Children willingly walk into crowds and destroy themselves for a lie. They are dragged in chains to death by a lie they received.

The lies we tell ourselves that put us in chains are lies rooted in victimization. The Hitler Lie about the Jews, The Ghost Shirt Lie about the white man's bullets, The 72 Virgin lie blaming the infidels is all about someone else is doing something to us. IF we buy into this lie it carries with it a set of chains. Chains that will lead to death or bondage equal to a mental invalidism. We wonder, how can otherwise sane people behave in such a manner. It's the lies we receive that bind us.

In the Bible a story of such a man who was bound by a lie is in the Fifth Chapter of John...
Jesus Heals a Lame Man
1 Afterward Jesus returned to Jerusalem for one of the Jewish holy days. 2 Inside the city, near the Sheep Gate, was the pool of Bethesda, with five covered porches. 3 Crowds of sick people—blind, lame, or paralyzed—lay on the porches. 5 One of the men lying there had been sick for thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him and knew he had been ill for a long time, he asked him, “Would you like to get well?”

7 “I can’t, sir,” the sick man said, “for I have no one to put me into the pool when the water bubbles up. Someone else always gets there ahead of me.

8 Jesus told him, “Stand up, pick up your mat, and walk!”

9 Instantly, the man was healed! He rolled up his sleeping mat and began walking!
Notice this man's response to truth standing right in front of him (the way the truth the life).

I have no one to put me (help me) (I'm unable to deal with this without help from others, I'm helpless)

Someone else always gets there ahead of me (I'm a victim of people's greed, oppression, others position)
He had been in this place for 38 years. He was laying on the ground, bound in invisible chains forged of the lies he willingly displayed. His life was predictable but miserable. IF he were to break these chains his life would change. He might not have been prepared for the chain breaking he was about to experience.

The essence of these lies has held whole ethnic cultures in America in chains from time to time like the American Indians. I have lived and worked among them in North Dakota and Tahlequah Oklahoma (capital of the Cherokee nation). Many American Indians have become wealthy prosperous, able successful pillars of any community. They learned to shake off the chains of perceived oppression to take on life's challenges and succeed. I helped put one such to rest a few days ago. Her passing was a celebration of victory.

Others among whom I have worked are bound as if the invisible chains were cold black and tied tightly around their neck. They cannot shake off these invisible chains to escape a bondage of their own acceptance.
Charles Spurgeon said, "You might not always get what you want, but you always get what you expect. "
The man at the Pool of Bethesda wasn't expecting much that day, he certainly wasn't expecting Jesus. He was expecting that until he died, no one would help him and that others would always beat him to the punch. It wasn't good, but he received it as truth and lay bound by the lie. It was a comfortable place even in discomfort. And he bore no personal responsibility.

The idea that we need Government or some charity to help us has put many in chains. It's a lie. It's a bondage. It keeps us inert. Disabled. Unwilling to see possibility beyond our misery. I think Haiti demonstrates this truth.

The idea that we are victims, that someone else always beats us to the punch, that we are disadvantaged for some reason outside of ourselves has put dark chains on our destiny and will keep us from achieving what we were placed on earth to do. We were not placed here to occupy space till He comes...we are here to occupy the space the enemy has stolen from us and others.

I spent time recently with a friend who said to me, "It seems like the sun shines on me, that everything I do seems to work, that I have more success at things than I deserve". I know why...he EXPECTS success to happen. He doesn't see his ethnic heritage as a barrier. He could be considered by some to be among an oppressed minority. Something the white man did to him or his ancestors. At one time evil white men put his people in chains and many died while bearing that burden. He should be a loser if the devil had his way. Instead he is a very successful fulfilled man. Who the SON seems to shine on. He is not receiving the lie.

I know many from the west and south sides of Chicago who are like my friend. The sun shines on them. Everything they touch seems to work. They live in positive expectation of success. Entertainment and business make empty the lie that ethnic heritage is a burden that is unable to be overcome. The Devil loves to tell this lie to make waste the heritage of young people murdering each other in gangs manifesting the hopelessness resulting from believing the lie.

Many who manifest this hopelessness live in the same areas as the victorious ones. They are bound in the chains of lies they received:
  • The "Man" has done this to us.
  • We are held down by the system.
  • We are oppressed.
It's the same set of lies the man at the pool of Bethesda received. The devil has no new lies. Just recycled old ones.

If these were outright lies of a devil in full visible regalia, horns on the head and a forked tail and a red suit, it would be bad enough and we would consider those who propagate these lies to be evil. But the lies that put many people in bondage often come from people with Reverend as a title; Minister or Pastor. They tell these people that the problem is the system is unfair. That the establishment has rallied against them. That they haven't got a chance because of racism. Then worse they divert attention from the real cause. The rallies against violence in the streets focuses on guns and not on those who shoot them. Straw man lies. Behind them you hear the Clanking of chains.

These leaders have become the new slave masters. I don't question their intentions in some cases. I do question the lies they have bought themselves and share their chains readily with their congregations. The lies that put people in chains are of the devil himself. He is the father of lies.

The same thing is true of people who receive the lie that there is some evil oppressor out there who is controlling them. That they are under the thumb of a world government or the Illuminati, or the Bilderburgers (it's a hotel) or some liberal government scheme. If they buy too much of this lie....chains.

At the other end of the spectrum are those who believe the world is in ecological free fall, that it's becoming hot, desolate, polluted beyond repair and hopeless. This kind of nihilism has made people refrain from having children and insist that everyone has to change their lifestyle to fit some imagined threat (read that lie). These kinds of lies have caused all manner of distortions in energy production and flawed policy. It's all a lie and when you buy it, you volunteer to be put in chains. Those who believe these things are bound and fettered by lies of the master of lies.

I am not a fan of the governance in power right now. I don't think they know what they are doing. I believe they believe they are doing the right things...but they are like the the ministers I mentioned...right motive wrong action. And driven by lies and agendas.

People need to be set free from this victim thinking...from the chains that bind...from the lies that hold them down and be set completely free. The mission of the Church must be to come against the lies of the enemy. Truth sets people free. Yet much of the Church hides it's head in the sand and avoids confronting the cultural lies all around us. Lies that murder and destroy destiny.

It's not about color, it's not about religion, it's not about ethnic origin. It's about receiving any lie that puts you in chains. It will cause you to lay crippled for 38 years wondering why good things keep passing you by.

Shake off the chains, those lies that bind.

God's purposes for YOU are beyond anything you can ask or think. It's beyond your understanding. IF we grasped this truth...we would have the SUN shine on us too. We could live like the Kings and Priests we are designed to be...not like slaves to a lie and living under oppression. It is a demon. It needs casting out. Casting this demon out without replacing the space left behind with pure truth will open the door for even bigger lies. We must come against this with all the force the Truth of God carries.

Freely Given....Freely Give

GODS GIFTS ARE NOT FOR SALE!!!

God didn’t give us gifts for them to be sold

He gave them to draw others into HIS fold

He gave them so that others could learn the truth

That they might know HIM we should never misuse

HIS gifts for OUR profit they weren’t meant to be sold

They were meant for HIS glory not for silver or gold

Revelation is a blessing it is Gods story told

It uplifts and encourages us to be bold

As we learn about HIM we need to pass it along

So that others may know just to whom they belong

His gifts are HIS they should never be sold

For they are more precious than silver and gold

Gods GRACE is sufficient for you and me

He didn’t sell it.. NO…HE GAVE IT FOR FREE

Because HE loves us like no other can

HIS WAYS ARE NOTHING

LIKE THE WAYS OF MAN!!!!

Jesus at the Temple

12Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. 13"It is written," he said to them, " 'My house will be called a house of prayer,'[e] but you are making it a 'den of robbers.'[f]"

A question

As a watchman do I have a responsibility to speak out about distortions and deceptions in media, politics, culture, entertainment, family structure, education, international affairs, financial enterprise and government? Or should I just stay silent about those things and just focus along on Church and the Spirituals? Did Prophets in your Bible restrict themselves to purely "Religious" stuff? Check and see.

A Last Days Prophet's Responsibility-- Lyn Grainger -- Austrailia

The last days prophet is there to foretell the future, guide the church through the toughest time in history, show the way to individuals and walk the path of the prophets of old. The way of the prophet is to stay humble before Me, always ready to minister in words and pictures from God to believers. To use your gifts to show the unbeliever insights into their heart in order to win them for Me. The prophet has access into the Holy of Holies, as does all My children, and is a workman equipped with the Word and a spiritual anointing that is placed on them by God. I choose the teachers, preachers, evangelists, prophets and apostles. You have a seal on your lives and none can take off that seal. It can only be tainted by wrong lifestyle and worldly wisdom, pride and deceit. Such as these that have the mantle upon your lives must stay clean, humble and consecrated unto Me. You must stay away from the pleasures of the world and seek the Kingdom, always reaching deeper and deeper into the things of the spirit and walking in ever increasing power and authority as you mature and grow in Me. Your thinking must change to reflect Mine. As you are changed from glory to glory, I enlarge your sphere of influence, your tent. I have you discipling and training others to reach their potential in Me and fulfill their ministries, created before the world began.

As you enter into this new season, it is imperative that you stay within a church that is walking in the spirit and not in the flesh. The prophets of old had authority over the people and directed their steps in obedience to My instructions. When a prophet takes money for what is given to them freely and uses the spiritual gifts to gain recognition, power and prestige for themselves – then I withdraw My presence from them. The Laodicean church was lukewarm and not hot or cold. You will not survive if you don't submit all to Me. I know the future and always will lead the willing consecrated soul. Trust Me, even when you see the storms and waves crash over you, I am the God of the storm and say - Peace be still. The dark clouds are coming and will cover the earth. My presence will be with the faithful and I will always listen to their prayer. Stay strong My children and look up, your redemption is at the door, even now the angels are rejoicing in the souls being saved and the victories that are being seen throughout the world. I will redeem the earth in power and majesty, coming back to a glorious Bride without spot or wrinkle.

Kim Clement: New Dimension of Prophetic Utterance is Coming

Prophesied on April 17, 2010 in Nashville, Tennessee
Kim Clement

The Spirit of God says, "Join in with the prophet tonight and smash open the restrictions that have been placed upon you. Smash open with your praise a ceiling that has been placed upon your finance. Smash open with your praise the limitations that have been placed upon you. Build an altar for the Lord and make a joyful noise, for as you praise you will break open the limitations tonight," says the Lord!

The whole earth shall hear the sound. No, we are not speaking vanity. The earth is crying out for the manifestation of the sons of God. The earth is crying for the knowledge of the Lord that has not yet been revealed, to be revealed through the sons and daughters of the Most High God. The earth is waiting to hear the sound. The earth wants you to keep it in check. The earth wants you to speak to it, to subdue it, to have dominion, to bring forth the resources.

Have I gone mad? No. Is it not true that God sent a prophet to prophesy to the altar? Is it not true that God said to the prophet, "Prophesy to dead bones"? Is it not true that God sent a prophet to prophesy to the wind and said, "Come from the north, south, the east, and the west"? Is it not true that Moses spoke to a rock? Is it not true that he struck the water and the earth obeyed his voice?

Speak to the Earth—Prophesy to It!

God says a new dimension of faith is coming to the sons and daughters of the Most High God. A new dimension of prophetic utterance is coming. The earth is saying, "Will you prophesy to me so I can release the resources that America needs? I will not hear the sons of wickedness. I will not hear the sons of perdition. I will not hear the sons of unrighteousness or unruliness. I will not listen to rebellion." The earth says, "Will you speak to me as Adam had the power?"

The Last Adam gave you that same power back. If you will speak to the fig tree it will vanish. If you speak to the mountain it will move.

The earth says, "Speak to me, speak to me, and I will yield a produce that is greater than you've ever seen."

God says, "I will bring the energy that you need and bring shame to the heathen nations that mock and laugh at the United States of America and the countries that have raised My name up into the air," says the Lord!

Speak to the earth, you sons of the Most High God
Speak to the earth, command it, sons of the Most High God
Prophesy, prophesy, speak to the earth you sons of the Most High God
Speak to the earth you sons of the Most High God
Prophesy to dead bones, prophesy that the earth will yield its source

This is what the Spirit of the Lord said, He said:

"The earth is waiting to hear the sound of the sons of the Living God. The earth has been in bondage waiting to be free, waiting to be free. Creation is crying out for the manifestation of God's sons, God's daughters. This generation has been chosen to do miracles greater than man has ever seen. Stop speaking to the dust—mankind. Stop speaking to carnality. Stop speaking to human flesh. Speak to that which I have given to you. Speak to the wind, the Spirit, speak to the earth.

And God says, "Watch how I will move, and you will prophesy as this prophet prophesied, that the earth shall yield its resources. What is captured and what is hidden in the earth has been for such a time as this. Will you stand still and say nothing when God has given you the power? Strike the rock and water will come forth, and an army shall be raised up. It shall come from the earth," says the Lord.

"Healings that you never dreamed of will come. Healings will come from the earth. There will be a nonexistent disease called cancer; it shall be ruled out within a few years, for what the earth shall bring forth shall destroy the debilitating diseases, the humiliating diseases. For I the Lord have given My Son, and the earth cried out that day, and now a generation stands on the soil of a nation that has been set apart for victory, victory, victory," says the Lord!

All I Want to Do is Prophesy to Jerusalem and Judah: "You Will Live and Declare the Works of the Lord"

Song of Jeremiah:

Nobody seems to care a hell about anywhere
Every place I go they walk away
I prophesy on the one side and they walk to the other side
Where have they gone?
Why don't they listen to the prophet of the Most High God?
I listen to the Lord and I hear His words
I listen to the Lord and I prophesy
Why do they walk away?
They don't care about what I say
But I know that I know that one day He'll come to me and show them
That He is the Lord Most High and what He said He will do
What He said He will do, what He said He will do now

My name is Jeremiah and I know that somebody will give
Why has the priest of the Most High God taken my hands and chained them in the earth

All I know is that the Lord He wants to bless Judah and Jerusalem
I know that God wants to pour rain on Judah and Jerusalem
Why do they tie me up, why do they take my hands and put me in chains?
Why do I feel so angry when I prophesy and they won't listen
I go one side and they go on that side, when I walk to them they run away
It's as if I am a leper, they don't want to come near me
But all that the Lord wants to do is bless them every time I prophesy to them

My name is Jeremiah and I know that one day God will come to me
And show the people that the Lord is here
And He will raise them up
And all I want to do is prophesy to Jerusalem and Judah
All I want to do is prophesy to Jerusalem and Judah:
You will live, you will live and declare the works of the Lord, you will live
You will live, you will live and declare the works of the Lord, you will live

"Netanyahu, You Will Stand as a Prophet of the Most High God"

Everything He prophesied is about to take place in Israel.

"Netanyahu, do you think you are standing in a place of authority just to rule and reign over Israel? Netanyahu, before you were born, I raised you up and placed My lips on your forehead and told you to go to the nation. And when you do, I raise them up and fight for them.

Netanyahu, you will stand not as a king but a prophet of the Most High God.
Netanyahu, you won't stand as a king but a prophet of the Most High God.
You will stand as a prophet of the Most High God.
You will stand before the people at the United Nations and you will declare the judgment of the Lord upon Iran,
says the Lord! Says the Lord!

Do you realize God is speaking to Israel right now?

"America, you are in the way of Russia, you are in the way of Iran. They want to strangle Israel, so they will attempt to do it to you, but it won't come from the outside, it will come from the inside. That's why I want you to gather around the prophet today so you can break that power.

"There will be two significant deaths. This will be a sign that I will not tolerate the spirit of python on this nation!

"Netanyahu, you are Jeremiah in another day and age. But you will stand not as a king; you will stand as a prophet of the Most High God. They'll try to kill you in the air, they'll try to kill you on the ground, but they will never see it in their day.

"Netanyahu, you will stand as a voice before the United Nations. You will stand as a prophet of the Most High God and prophesy judgment to Iran.

"Iran, you have no power!"

I'm saying that before the king of Israel—if you want to call him that—was born, God put His lips on his forehead and kissed him and said, "You will be a king in the right day, but you will not stand as a king. You will stand as a prophet in Israel."

The enemy will not reach them from the outside. The enemy will not reach to America from the outside, but he stands inside—and now tonight we will destroy that power!

Israel, oh Israel, from Nashville, Tennessee, in the United States of America, another prophet prophesies: Judgment has begun. Judgment has begun; judgment not against this nation but against the craftiness of that one nation, that midget who stands cocking his head. Would he defy the servants of God this day?

The Lord is saying, "No!"

"Because of You, I Will Show Them My Mercy"

Song about Jeremiah:

Come to Me, Jeremiah. Come to Me, Jeremiah. Won't you tell Me how you feel?
I know you've said you'll never speak My name again; will you come to Me and tell Me how you feel?
Jeremiah, won't you come to Me right now, won't you tell Me how you feel, tell Me what you feel the way you do?
Jeremiah, I know you told Me you'll never speak My name, though you hurt Me, won't you tell Me how you feel?
And Jeremiah, I know you said you'll shut your mouth.
Remember when you were there with Me as a young boy and I told you that I called you, when you were just nothing of the earth.
Remember I told you that I picked you up and sent you to the earth.
Jeremiah, I know you said you'd never prophesy again and you hurt Me, God says, but I forgive you. Jeremiah, I'll never, never, never, never choose somebody else, because I've placed in you a love for My inheritance.
Do you remember the day that I asked you, "What do you see?"
And I looked into your eyes, your sweet blue eyes, and you told Me you saw the tree.

Jeremiah, you said you'd never say My words again.
Will you tell Me how you're feeling now?

Abba...
Father, You induced me, You tricked me, You made me prophesy to the anger
Yes, I remember when I told You, "I'm just a youth," I knew I couldn't handle it
So why did You do this and humiliate me?

Jeremiah, you did exactly what I asked, and now because of you I'll show them My mercy.
Jeremiah, come to Me and let Me hold you, because one day you'll prophesy again.
Because of you, Jeremiah, I'll hold back My hand of judgment and I will raise them up for My glory again, says the Lord!
Jeremiah, because you took the stripes upon your back, I'll hold back My hand, I'll hold back My hand, and I will bless Jerusalem once again!

Jeremiah, open up your mouth, your bones are in pain as you are holding back.

And as I opened up my mouth, my body opened up and it seemed like I was united like an eagle flying in the sky. I could not contain myself as the words flowed out of me and I knew...I had done His will.
