So what are we to do?

• How about instead of signs of sticks and cardboard we give them signs and wonders from heaven (thanks Chris V).
• How about instead of (or in addition to) coming together in cloisters and praying and seeking God, we come together on the streets, at the capitals, at work, at play and just bless people, heal people without having an agenda to grab them into the Kingdom.  Let the Kingdom of God speak through the actions of the body!!!
• How about wherever you go, you bring the Kingdom of God with you.  When walking through the airport or the mall know that wherever your foot steps you are spreading the peace of the Kingdom.  Sometimes without words, without outside notice your presence is simply the presence of the Kingdom of God and it makes a difference.  It can be as simple as giving away smiles (seems a lot of people have lost their smiles).
• How about going to your state capital or the national capital and instead of making a big scene with signs and stuff, just go over and lay your hands on the building and bless it and all inside.  Then walk the halls of the building quietly bringing the presence of God and speaking blessing over the whole house and everyone you see.
• How about instead of walking to the other side of the street when you see a bum, a homosexual, a prostitute, an atheist, a wiccan, that you greet them and ask them how they are (looking in their eyes and meaning it.  Then offer to pray for their physical healing, their blessing, their peace.  And do it without trying to set a hook in their mouth.  Just love them.
• How about praying for, or better yet getting a group of believers together to pray for peace over Nancy Pelosi (or whoever else you are offended by).  Pray for her family, pray that Papa would bless her and give her wisdom.  Speak kindness and protection over her and all her family.
• How about you go by your local abortion clinic and pray peace over the women and men there, that they would know the love of the Lord.  That they would know how very much He loves them.
• There is a vast need for healthcare and legal care for the poor and needy in the US.  Go to your local emergency room or courthouse and see the hurt, fear and pain there.  Bring the peace of the Kingdom and leave it there.  Then call out to Papa to bring His knowledge and wisdom to our representatives so that they can create a Godly plan to care for the poor and needy in the land.

I believe I am called to bring the light of the Kingdom into everywhere I go rather than point out the evil and curse the darkness.  What about you?

War!

Part 1

We are at war.  Simply, succinctly, regardless of your theology, beliefs, concepts… whatever.  It is a time of war on this earth.  There are territories being fought over, people being attacked and wounded, there are captives, those who are in bondage.

I am not a teacher today, so I won’t get into a long scripture based theological dissertation on the legal status of the earth and the heavens, and those in the earth.  Nor am I particularly interested in your stand on it.  I am standing in the place of prophet and seer and proclaiming to you truth of what is happening and what will happen.

Jesus came that we might have life and that abundantly (John 10:10).  His work was to destroy the works of the evil one and to re-establish mankind’s relationship with the great and only God of the universe.  For Papa God so loved the world that He gave His only, His one and only, Son so that whoever in all the world, believes in Him would not die but have life with Papa forever.  Papa sent His Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but to save it (John 3:16-17).

There is an enemy, satan, the evil one, and he has forces allied with him, demons.  They come to steal, kill and destroy (John 10:10).  They are not misunderstood angels, they are not beings from another dimension who are just looking for a place they can live in peace.  They are completely evil, devoid of any good, whose purpose is to ruthlessly destroy any vestige of good in this world.  Murder, child sex trade, torture, poverty, hurricanes, earthquakes, genocide, war, cancer, disease…  these things aren’t from God nor are they His will for the earth.

The term “act of God” applied to occurrences in the earth is a defamatory statement conceived in the halls of the enemy and applied to the very one who sent His son to save us from the very thing He is accused of causing.  In the same way there are those who claim that hurricanes, earthquakes, genocides, etc are “judgments of God” against sinners.  But the disciples wanted to get all judgmental and bring down wrath of God stuff, Jesus said that they didn’t realize what spirit they were manifesting because Jesus came not to destroy men’s lives but to save (sozo) them.

So if they weren’t manifesting His Spirit whose were they manifesting?  Must be the one who comes to steal, kill, and destroy.

So where does this leave us.  There is a war going on across the face of this planet.  People’s lives are being stolen, any vestige of good is being attacked and killed and their hopes are being destroyed.  What they need, is to be saved, delivered, protected, healed, preserved, made whole, loved.  I think the greatest news anyone could bring to me, to us, to this world is that we have a super hero who can do all that.  Here is how Jesus stated the “good news” that He came to preach.

The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor.  He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed, and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord. (Luke 4:18-19)

And

His prayer and our prayer included asking that:

the Kingdom of God come and Papa’s will be done on earth just like it is in Heaven (Matthew 6:9, Luke 11:2).

Was He just pulling our leg?  Did Papa and Jesus want us to ask them for something that is not going to happen?  Or just happen in the sweet by and by.  That won’t happen here?  Or are we asked to pray for something that He wants to do, plans on doing, is doing and wants us to ask that we might receive and do?  Jesus did it and he conquered the bully by doing a counterwork καταργηση, and rendered useless and ineffectual, all the operations of him who had the power, κρατος, or influence, to bring death into the world (Clarke on Hebrews 2:14).

Is the Spirit of the Lord in and on His body (us) so that we are proclaiming the good news, healing the broken hearted, releasing the captives, giving sight to the blind, delivering those who are crushed, going forth and proclaiming the time of God’s favor on the earth and bringing the Kingdom of God and His will and reign to the earth just like it is in heaven?

I say to you YES!!!

The Buckets

Before the trip to Lakeland, the Lord told me to bring 2 buckets with me to be filled with His Glory to carry back with me.  So, I got two five gallon white plastic buckets and carried them on the plane with me. Caused quite a stir with the flight attendants who began calling me the “bucket man”. However, it gave a chance to testify to what the Lord was doing. They didn’t understand how I was going to get the buckets filled with what God was doing in Lakeland. One attendant was concerned with how I would be able to get the filled buckets back through airport security.  😉

Before we left, I was led to print out II Corinthians 4:7, “But we have this treasure in clay jars to show that its extraordinary power comes from God and not from us”.  Plastic pails are modern- day clay jars, nothing of any special marvelous thing but just everyday containers.  The printout was in English, Hebrew, Greek, French, Spanish and Chinese.  In Lakeland the Lord had me tape all these translations onto one bucket, with the English by itself on the other bucket.  He told me to go to the nations at the conference and have them write the translation of their country on the bucket with only the English translation. Awesome!!!

I had been shown by the Holy Spirit that there are 3 buckets to be filled with His anointing, His glory, His presence and that they will never go dry.  I am a living bucket and the other two buckets are for the overflow. I am to pour out where ever He sends me on whosoever and they will refill like the widow’s oil jars… Filled with Papa’s presence and His glory.  His presence comes first that we may rejoice, play, and enjoy Him.  His Glory comes that we many know His fullness, the depth of His love and His power.  For without knowing His presence and the joy of his countenance we would abuse His glory.  Also the Lord showed me that the buckets are for the nations in me, in my family, in Bridgeway, in Denver, in America, in the world.  So far I have seen that in this case “nations” represent distinct cultures, world views, parts of the body.  This is to bring unity in me, my family, Bridgeway, Denver, America and in the world.

Since returning from Lakeland the Lord has had us pour out His presence and His glory on 3 Men’s leadership meetings in Denver.  We are arranging to go on Prayer One (helicopter)  to pour out over the Denver metro area.  Also preparing to pour out during the Marcha de Gloria in Denver ( http://www.marchadegloriacolorado.com/index.html )

How much for this Gospel, today?

For too long my body has charged for that which I have freely given to them.

My brothers, do not practice your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ by showing partiality. Suppose a man wearing gold rings and fine clothes comes into your assembly, and a poor man in dirty clothes also comes in. If you give special attention to the man wearing fine clothes and say, “Please take this seat,” but you say to the poor man, “Stand over there” or “Sit on the floor at my feet,” you have made false distinctions among yourselves and have become judges with evil motives, haven’t you?
Listen, my dear brothers! God has chosen the poor in the world to become rich in faith and to be heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who love him, has he not? But you have humiliated the man who is poor. James 2:1-6

There are many in the body who the Father has given the vision of being a financial river. Receive the vision and let there be a breakout of His financial anointing. Because God has said that His word and His anointing WILL NOT BE SOLD. He has allowed it in the past in your conferences, your teaching times because of your lack of faith. But now His body will no longer charge for His anointing, His word, His presence. It is His Kingdom and it is His good pleasure to provide all, all, more than all for the expansion of His reign throughout the world. Let the call go forth
Listen! Whoever is thirsty, come to the water! Whoever has no money can come, buy, and eat! Come, buy wine and milk. You don’t have to pay; its free!

Revival

The start and beginning of revival is a person, a people who seek His face, who can’t go another step without Him. He searches the earth for that person, that people who seek Him, who must have His face. Then His hand brings salvation, His hand brings clean robes, His hand washes clean. The revival we seek is a response to our longing for Him. He does not seek a clean vessel, He seeks a person, a people who long for His face like He longs for theirs. These are the ones who He can then make clean vessels by His hand.

There are many, many, most who come seeking His hand and He will provide. Yet there are a few who come seeking His face. Oh that they would seek His face. This is a call that as you go you would go to seek His face, His countenance, to behold the beauty of His radiant face which is towards you.

When we seek the Fathers hand we will see effect. When we seek His face we will see cause. As the Father begins moving this revival across the World, each place, each manifestation may be different. If we are seeking his hand and seeing effect we may miss what He is doing because the effect will differ. But seeking His face we will see the cause and that will not differ.

Kingdom Entertainment

I have heard it said that much of what the church does today is “entertainment”. That troubles me for 2 reasons:

One — It is a disparaging remark and I have come to see that most disparaging remarks aren’t necessarily of the Spirit. So I am disappointed when brothers and sisters make disparaging remarks about something I love.

Two – Is it true? Are we just doing actions but not doing and being what the Father wanted?

What the Spirit showed me was that yes this comment is true but not in the spirit that it is generally given.

Entertainment = Enter into attainment of His presence.

In Samuel 6:14-21 David danced with all his might and Michal watched him and thought he was just doing entertainment. She was thinking how the people perceived his dancing. Her eyes were not on God but on man. David admitted to entertainment but his eyes were on Abba. His dancing was entertainment unto the Lord.

Then I was brought in my spirit back to when I was little, maybe 5 or 6, and the neighborhood children put on a play for our parents on the front porch. We dressed up in costumes and had our parts and I don’t even remember what the play was about. But I remember bowing at the end and receiving the applause and seeing the appreciation in the eyes of my parents. I also remembered when I was even younger and putting my head down and attempting to roll over. “Look at me Daddy, Look at me Mommy” And I remember running up to them with a hand full of wilted flowers and giving it to them and basking in their joy of my gift.

Daddy, Momma, Let me entertain you – Let me bring you joy by showing you what I can do…Let me bask in your loving gaze. Look Daddy, Abba, I want to play in your presence.

You see it all depends on your perspective, who you are looking to entertain?

At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, “Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And He called a child to Himself and set him before them, and said, “Truly I say to you, unless you are converted and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. “Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”

Matt 18:1-4

Rep’ing the Kingdom

A few days ago on the news there was a major traffic jam in the mountains of Colorado. The news showed pictures of all the cars stopped completely. But in the middle of it all, the newscaster pointed out a car with a large can attached to the top. This car wasn’t the same as the other cars. It was a car representing an energy drink. The people in the car were representing that drink to the world. They were out of their car going to the other cars and giving cans of the energy drink away to each person.

Reminded me of Jesus with the crowds. He gave away gracelets of the Kingdom — Healing the sick, casting out demons, raising the dead and preaching the gospel to the poor. Then when he left he gave us the responsibility to give away the same gracelets of the Kingdom.

And these signs shall follow those that believe: In my name they shall cast out demons; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take away serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands upon the sick, and they shall be healed. Mark 16:17-18

Truly I say to you, He who puts his faith in me will do the very works which I do, and he will do greater things than these, because I am going to my Father. John 14:12

We are representative of our Father Yahweh and His Kingdom. We may not look or act like everyone else but we go from person to person giving tastes or gracelets of the Kingdom that they may all see and taste and know that the Kingdom is good and want more.

“Oh taste and see that the Lord is good” Psalm 34:8

Is what you are giving away something that the people you come around will truly want more of?

Or are you just giving philosophy with Jesus name in it?

“for the kingdom of God isn’t just talk but power” 1 Corinthians 4:20

The Kingdom Throne Room Interpretation.

Read the vision below this first then this interpretation will make sense.

Of course the great throne room is where God, Yahweh, is enthroned. Where his presence is.

Everyone entering the throne room is his. They are all “Christians”, the saved; they have their tickets punched.

Outside the throne room is the world, the daily places we walk.

The dignitaries, emissaries, and warriors entering through the great doors are those who have known the great king. But they enter the throne room based on their robes, their anointing, their battles, their deeds, their roles, and their titles. The great King perhaps gave the robes they wear, but now they have become their robes. The great King perhaps gave the roles and titles they stand in, but now they are their roles and their titles. The great King perhaps gave the armor and swords they have, but now they are their armor and their swords wielded with their understanding. It has all become theirs, their justification, the things that give them “right” to enter the throne room.

They don’t have close relationship with the King that they give obeisance to so they go only so close to him. The things they wear weigh them down. They accept the Kings robes, the Kings armor, the Kings swords but not directly from the King because they have ceased to look directly to Him. They no longer look to His face but they are looking at each others robes, armor, weapons….They get their affirmation from each other.

When they leave the throne room they are still carrying their stuff but now they have the additional things the King has provided, but placed on top of their stuff it all becomes weighty. So they return to the world burdened.

The children that come in are those who come to the throne room of their father washed by the water of the Word, dripping with the Holy Spirit. They come with nothing to offer except their joy in their Father. Their desire is to draw close to Him, hear His heart beat, know the warmth of His love, and look into His face, His eyes.

He provides all the covering they need. He provides all the armor they need. He provides all the weapons they need. All suited exactly for each one of them. He whispers the name only He knows to each of them and tells each of His Love and what He has for them to do.

They climb down and those who are there on their own basis think that they are just nice but don’t believe they have the power, the knowledge, the presence that they do. But then the children go out with nothing but what their Father has provided.

And they become what the Father has proclaimed – His warriors who go forth with His power and His Word to shake the powers of the earth and bring their Father’s kingdom.

The Kingdom Throne Room

I saw a great throne room with 2 large golden doors at one end and on the other end up a series of steps was a great throne. The 2 doors would be opened and what appeared to be dignitaries and emissaries and warriors would come and go from the world into the great throne room. They were clothed in various robes and armors and weapons. Robes of many colors, great swords, and heavy armor, everything worn had a bit of wear, not as bright as perhaps it once was. They entered and bowed low and did obeisance to the throne. Some stood at the bottom of the steps some climbed the steps. And the one who sat on the throne would command servants from the left or the right to come and give them robes and swords and armor, many things. They would turn and leave out the great doors carrying the things given to them by the great King. Their robes and armor and swords and the ones given by the great King. And they looked much the same as when they came in as they went out.

But all of a sudden from the side of the throne, out from the curtains, comes a giggle, then a peal of laughter. The great King raises his hand to everyone in the throne room for silence. He looks to the side and smiles and laughs and then, scampering onto the very highest step right up to the throne comes His children. Some are in little bathrobes, some don’t have anything on at all, and they all look like they are fresh from a bath, dripping water all across the throne room floor. They climb on his lap and giggling look into his face, and He holds them close to his heart so that they hear his heart beat and know the warmth of his love. Then He takes clothing from His throne and He dresses them. Fine linens, wonderful colors, bright, shining. Then he takes what appears to be little armor just their size and puts it on them and He takes little swords just their size and gives them to each of His children.

And the whole room smiles and remarks how cute His children look in their little clothes and their little armor and their little swords. The great King whispers to each of them and they smile and each one gets down from the great King’s knee and crosses the throne room towards the great doors. And they walk through the great doors and the room is hushed and there is a gasp that goes up, because as each child crosses the doorway to go outside the walls of the throne room a marvelous thing happens. The children appear no longer small but are great and powerful. The children’s clothing becomes great flowing robes of light and colors. The armor expands to cover them from the crowns of their heads to the soles of their feet. The swords grow and become great and fierce weapons. When they set their feet down the ground shakes and lightning flashes and peals of thunder go forth.

Gospel

About a week ago I felt that God spoke to me down deep inside. It was just a few words but they got into me and moved around and I soaked them in and they felt good. They were gospel, good news, glad tidings…

So here they are, from God to me to you.
