This Gospel Of The Kingdom

Think about what Jesus was saying when He Said :

Matthew 24:14

Common English Bible 

 This gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the world as a testimony to all the nations. Then the end will come.

Could it be that "The Gospel", that was spread by sword and forced conversions, by destroying Native Americans and taking many other lands by force, for "The Church", was not The Gospel Jesus was taking about?

Could it be that even good churches now through out the West, and increasingly in The East, have a remnant of these false motives, for spreading "The Gospel", operating in them without knowing it?

Does gaining wealth and lands on the backs of the less fortunate in the name of The Gospel, resemble at all the example Jesus and The Apostles Gave?

Could you see Paul living in a mansion in the middle of the Poverty in Indonesia, Nigeria, South Korea, Atlanta, New York, Chicago, New Orleans? 

Could you see Him in Corinth, a massive church, driving in on a chariot of gold, finely dressed, with an entourage, covered in the finest jewelry and robes?

No, however, there is hope. The Latter Rain will be greater than the former in every way. The hirelings will be exposed, the true shepherds will rise up in power, humility and love. The Gospel of The Kingdom will be preached in power and demonstration to all nations as a Testimony, then the end shall come.

1 Timothy 6:5-20New Living Translation (NLT)

5 These people always cause trouble. Their minds are corrupt, and they have turned their backs on the truth. To them, a show of godliness is just a way to become wealthy.

6 Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth. 7 After all, we brought nothing with us when we came into the world, and we can’t take anything with us when we leave it. 8 So if we have enough food and clothing, let us be content.

9 But people who long to be rich fall into temptation and are trapped by many foolish and harmful desires that plunge them into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil. And some people, craving money, have wandered from the true faith and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

11 But you, Timothy, are a man of God; so run from all these evil things. Pursue righteousness and a godly life, along with faith, love, perseverance, and gentleness. 12 Fight the good fight for the true faith. Hold tightly to the eternal life to which God has called you, which you have declared so well before many witnesses. 13 And I charge you before God, who gives life to all, and before Christ Jesus, who gave a good testimony before Pontius Pilate, 14 that you obey this command without wavering. Then no one can find fault with you from now until our Lord Jesus Christ comes again. 15 For,

At just the right time Christ will be revealed from heaven by the blessed and only almighty God, the King of all kings and Lord of all lords. 16 He alone can never die, and he lives in light so brilliant that no human can approach him. No human eye has ever seen him, nor ever will. All honor and power to him forever! Amen.

17 Teach those who are rich in this world not to be proud and not to trust in their money, which is so unreliable. Their trust should be in God, who richly gives us all we need for our enjoyment. 18 Tell them to use their money to do good. They should be rich in good works and generous to those in need, always being ready to share with others. 19 By doing this they will be storing up their treasure as a good foundation for the future so that they may experience true life.

20 Timothy, guard what God has entrusted to you. Avoid godless, foolish discussions with those who oppose you with their so-called knowledge.

Build The Fences

"Oh Build The Fence for things that are coming must be kept out. Set The Ramparts and station The Watchman. But above all, build the fence."

"Digging post holes/ setting a fence is labor intensive. We must labor in prayer. We must watch where we set our words. We must align our hearts."

"The Lord has works He longs to do through His people, but His people are to distracted to hear. They wont receive it until they have no choice!"





Nahum 2:1

Your enemy is coming to crush you, Nineveh. Man the ramparts! Watch the roads! Prepare your defenses! Call out your forces!


Habakkuk 2:1


I will stand my watch And set myself on the rampart, And watch to see what He will say to me, And what I will answer when I am corrected.


Isaiah 21:6


Meanwhile, the Lord said to me,
“Put a watchman on the city wall.
    Let him shout out what he sees.



The Walls

From inside the walls and outside the walls
There is raising up a shout
The voice of The LORDS Redeemed
Shouting let the captives out!

From inside the walls and outside the walls
A song is being sung
Gods chosen, singing in The Spirit
Singing The Time of freedom has come!

From inside the walls and outside the walls
The Word is being declared
Gods kings and priest on the earth
Taking authority, over the prince of the air

From inside the walls and outside the walls
Victory is being revealed
The elect of The LORD
HAVE BEEN CHOSEN,SAVED AND SEALED!

FROM INSIDE THE WALLS AND OUTSIDE THE WALLS
A NEW NATION HAS BEEN BIRTHED
AND HER CITIZENS ARE SHOUTING
JESUS IS LORD OVER ALL THE EARTH!

Will You Rally To Your King!!!!!!!!

In My Father's Kitchen    

Take Knee Soldier!

(This post is a mix of an old post on this blog, a Facebook post I did the other day, and a Painting that brought them together)

I watched a movie the other day that kind of bombed in The Box Office, but I liked a lot. It has some really great examples of how we can be led by The Holy Spirit and what to do when we seem to be under siege of the enemy and circumstances.

The Movie was "After Earth". I highly suggest it for every prayer warrior and person of faith. I don't want to give too much away for those who have not seen it, but I do feel led to mention two main aspects of the movie that we can use in our walk and our battles of faith.

One is how the main Character explains FEAR. How fear is an irrational thought of a future event that may or may not happen. That fear is a choice. Danger may be very real, but fear is a choice.

 He teaches the one he is watching over to be in the moment, not to think about what is ahead, or what may happen, but to know his surroundings now, and that takes me to the next, and most important thing we can learn from this movie: 

Take a Knee.

He tells the one, he is watching over, that when he is getting scared, when danger seems to be overcoming him, when emotions are winning out, to Take A Knee, calm down, take an inventory of himself. 

He asks him: 

Is he injured? 

What tools and weapons does he have at his disposal? 

What are his immediate surroundings? 

What mistakes would be avoided, what would we have not run from. In one part of the movie as the main character is watching his son run from something, he has to yell at him to "Take A Knee".

He yells "You are running from NOTHING, There is NOTHING chasing you! Take A Knee!"

I shared the picture because it struck my heart when I saw it. This picture brings back some powerful memories of a period of time in my life that I seemed gripped by a battle, and a spirit of prayer for a long period of time. 

I can remember marching around my old workplace, all night long, in the driving snow, praying fervently. Sometimes I walked back and forth or stood on a hill there weeping and praying. One night I knelt in the snow next to the dumpster and consecrated myself to Gods Plan. 

I took a knee

The months and seasons passed with no change, winter came around again and again, marching, praying, seeking, declaring. There were enemies that would come against me in many different ways and forms, trying to get me to give up and tempt me to stumble.

I knelt many times over those years in exhaustion of spirit and soul. I would kneel down, take a knee, wherever I could be alone for just a few minutes, whether it was in the maintenance room, in the housekeeping room, next to carts and dumpsters. 

I had to take a knee, time and time again, to refocus, consecrate myself to God, and take an inventory of all He had done and was doing. 

Tired from the battle, the choice was always the same: Give up and return to sin, or consecrate myself once again to Gods Plan.

Along with Intercessory Prayer, The Prayer of Consecration has been a lifeline between my soul and The Lord many times in my life since I was a child. 

So?

TAKE A KNEE SOLDIER!!

James 5 - Prophecy Unfolding

James 5 contains a prophecy of the conditions we are seeing right now.

This nation never really repented of atrocities of slavery and the Jim Crow era. We have been reaping the harvest ever since. Unfortunately so have the very people that great evil targeted.

You can argue one point or the other all you want. There are great spiritual forces at work in racial hatred and division. The business leaders of this nation refuse to listen, the church leaders of this nation refuse to see, so the only thing left is to reap the harvest that has been sown.

This nations financial system never repented from slavery, it just exported it, shipped it over where there are no laws against child labor, slave labor, and working conditions that cause men and women to jump to their deaths, while we celebrate the companies that make these decisions.

We as a nation give the title of "Most Favored Nation" to a nation that persecutes minorities, religions and has little to no labor laws.

We call those, who pick our crops now for low wages and no benefits, "illegal aliens", and when they want to take part in our liberties and benefits here, we call them names, and yell to deport them.

The employers that employ them reap huge profits, we eat cheap goods, while they work their hands and backs all day, every day, during harvest season. Yet,  we don't want them eating at our table or to enjoy the benefits of that harvest.

THAT IS SLAVERY.

Men, women and children sitting on heaps of E-Waste, poisoning themselves and the water trying to survive, while western companies make millions on dumping it there, is a great evil.

Like it or not, the warning in James 5 is upon us

Get on your knees and pray!

As we reap the the harvest, and we see the suffering, there is encouragement for those who are The Lords.



                                     




James 5:1-12 (NIV)


1 Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. 2 Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days.

4 Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5 You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter. 6 You have condemned and murdered the innocent one, who was not opposing you.


7 Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. 8 You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near. 9 Don’t grumble against one another, brothers and sisters, or you will be judged. The Judge is standing at the door!

10 Brothers and sisters, as an example of patience in the face of suffering, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. 11 As you know, we count as blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of Job’s perseverance and have seen what the Lord finally brought about. The Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

12 Above all, my brothers and sisters, do not swear—not by heaven or by earth or by anything else. All you need to say is a simple “Yes” or “No.” Otherwise you will be condemned.

What We Need

We don't need Revolution

We don't need Restitution

What we need is Salvation

Revelation of Justification 

To bow our knees in Consecration 

At The Throne of Grace and Purification 

To know The Suffering of His Crucifixion 

To Demonstrate The Power of His Resurrection
