Peace Of Christ

The Lord brought to my attention the scriptures below while speaking to me about having peace in a time of trouble. He showed me the importance of The Church and her leaders understanding that while the nations may rage, while governments and the world may become chaotic and fearful, He has given us all we need to meet every need in peace.

From that place of peace we will be able to be a refuge by pointing toward the One who is the Only Safe Place(Psalm 91). He also will supply all we need both naturally and supernaturally to meet every need, both spiritually and physically.


Luke 2:41-49
New King James Version

41 His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the Feast of the Passover. 42 And when He was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast. 43 When they had finished the days, as they returned, the Boy Jesus lingered behind in Jerusalem. And Joseph and His mother did not know it; 44 but supposing Him to have been in the company, they went a day’s journey, and sought Him among their relatives and acquaintances.

45 So when they did not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem, seeking Him. 46 Now so it was that after three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions. 47 And all who heard Him were astonished at His understanding and answers. 48 So when they saw Him, they were amazed; and His mother said to Him, “Son, why have You done this to us? Look, Your father and I have sought You anxiously.”

49 And He said to them, “Why did you seek Me? Did you not know that I must be about My Father’s business?”


Matthew 14:25-32
New King James Version

25 Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.

27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”
28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”

29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”

31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.



Mark 4:35-39 New King James Version

35 On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” 36 Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. 38 But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?”

39 Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.



Mark 6:35-44
New King James Version

35 When the day was now far spent, His disciples came to Him and said, “This is a deserted place, and already the hour is late. 36 Send them away, that they may go into the surrounding country and villages and buy themselves bread;for they have nothing to eat.”

37 But He answered and said to them, “You give them something to eat.”
And they said to Him, “Shall we go and buy two hundred denarii worth of bread and give them something to eat?”

38 But He said to them, “How many loaves do you have? Go and see.”
And when they found out they said, “Five, and two fish.”

39 Then He commanded them to make them all sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in ranks, in hundreds and in fifties. 41 And when He had taken the five loaves and the two fish, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the loaves, and gave them to His disciples to set before them; and the two fish He divided among them all. 42 So they all ate and were filled. 43 And they took up twelve baskets full of fragments and of the fish. 44 Now those who had eaten the loaves were about five thousand men.


Psalm 91

New Living Translation

1 Those who live in the shelter of the Most High
will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.

2 This I declare about the Lord:
He alone is my refuge, my place of safety;
he is my God, and I trust him.

3 For he will rescue you from every trap
and protect you from deadly disease.

4 He will cover you with his feathers.
He will shelter you with his wings.
His faithful promises are your armor and protection.

5 Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night,
nor the arrow that flies in the day.

6 Do not dread the disease that stalks in darkness,
nor the disaster that strikes at midday.

7 Though a thousand fall at your side,
though ten thousand are dying around you,
these evils will not touch you.

8 Just open your eyes,
and see how the wicked are punished.

9 If you make the Lord your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,

10 no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.

11 For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.

12 They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.

13 You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!

14 The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.

15 When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.

16 I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”

Seeing Into The Next Age

There are times The Lord will give us a prophetic word or song and it applies to now. There are times it will apply to the near future. Then there are times when it will apply to now, the near future and the coming age.


This I believe is one of those "Words"

The Word says in Jude 1:14-15

14 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these men also, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, 15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”

Rev 19:11-16 it says:

11 Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war. 12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself. 13 He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God. 14 And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses. 15 Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. 16 And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written:

KING OF KINGS AND
LORD OF LORDS.


I posted this song/poem the other day: Here it is again in light of the verses above.


I see, I see, a mighty, mighty army
I see, I see, them marching in victory

I see, I see, The Name of The Lord
I see, I see, an invasion into the nations of The World

I see, I see, their uniforms dripping with His Blood
I see, I see, His Spirit sending before them a Great Flood

I see, I see, the forces bowing before The Procession
I see , I see, they can not touch Gods Precious Possessions

I see , I see, the earth quaking beneath them
I see, I see, dead stones turning into Gems

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they march in Your Name
Oh what more Lord, what more, will they heal the blind sick and lame

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they declare your will
Oh what more Lord, what more, will the raging of the nations finally be stilled

What will I see, What will I see, at the end of this Great March
What will, I see What will I see, when your troops reach the City Arch

What will I see, what will I see, for ear has not heard, nor eye seen
What glorious victories you have prepared for Your Blood Bought Redeemed!

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

I see, I see, a mighty, mighty army
I see, I see, them marching in victory

I see, I see, The Name of The Lord
I see, I see, an invasion into the nations of The World

I see, I see, their uniforms dripping with His Blood
I see, I see, His Spirit sending before them a Great Flood

I see, I see, the forces bowing before The Procession
I see , I see, they can not touch Gods Precious Possessions

I see , I see, the earth quaking beneath them
I see, I see, dead stones turning into Gems

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

TD Jakes.... Nothing that you been through will be Wasted

A very powerful message.

The Full Gospel

Social Justice is not the focus of The Gospel, although it is a benefit of the true Gospel. The main and only eternal focus of the Gospel is to get people saved from hell. To snatch them from the Kingdom of Darkness and show them The Kingdom of God. All Kingdoms rise and fall, this nation will one day fall, if The Lord shall tarry, and along with it the social outreaches as we know them. The Kingdom of God can not fall or falter.

In a day where this generation looks at the Church as a social center, we need to remember it does man no good to gain the whole world,money acceptance, equality, yet lose his own soul to hell. Preach The Gospel and The Full Word of God. Some will believe, some will believe, some will not, that is in Gods Hands.

It is mans decision whether they will lay down at the foot of the cross themselves, take up their cross and follow Christ. Don't sugar coat sin for one group or another. God showed his love for all men, no matter what particular sin they embrace and HE CALLS ALL MEN TO CHOOSE THIS DAY WHOM YOU WILL SERVE.

The Holy Spirit renewing the human heart is the only answer for everything that ills mankind.

I see! I See!

I see, I see, a mighty, mighty army
I see, I see, them marching in victory

I see, I see, The Name of The Lord

I see, I see, His Spirit sending before them a Great Flood

I see, I see, the forces bowing before The Procession
I see , I see, they can not touch Gods Precious Possessions

I see , I see, the earth quaking beneath them
I see, I see, dead stones turning into Gems

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they march in Your Name
Oh what more Lord, what more, will they heal the blind sick and lame

Oh what more Lord, what more, as they declare your will
Oh what more Lord, what more, will the raging of the nations finally be stilled

What will I see, What will I see, at the end of this Great March
What will, I see What will I see, when your troops reach the City Arch

What will I see, what will I see, for ear has not heard, nor eye seen
What glorious victories you have prepared for Your Blood Bought Redeemed!

Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! Jesus! We come in His Majesty's Name
