Entering the Narrow Gate = Entering Into Covenant

1/21/2014

 
PictureNote the warning at the entrance of my driveway
Matthew 7:13-14
Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. KJV

For years the Lord has marked the message I carry with supernatural signs and wonders.  Our Lord of Hosts wants His house of prayer for all nations built, David's tabernacle restored and  His army mobilized as their is a great harvest that our Lord expects as we approach the end of the age. 

God's used many supernatural signs to encourage me often in spite of opposition, criticism, the spiritual dullness that accompanies complacency.   Now the sign in this picture isn't supernatural but I find it very amusing.  God knows me.  He knows how my mind works and He knew where we would live and knew what He called us to do.  Whether the county workers realized it or not, I think God had them place that sign there just to amuse and encourage me.  

This is the sign at the entrance to our driveway; "Road Narrows."  When I first saw it I thought of this as "the gateway to the narrow way."  This is a place where many disciples will begin their walk towards their high call in Christ Jesus.  Matthew 7:13-14 was the first scripture that came to mind because that's the first place in the New Testament where Jesus admonished us to enter by the strait or narrow gate because it was the narrow way that led to life.  I got a chuckle out of it as this was the birthplace of Kingdom League International (KLI) and Christ knew the vision before we wrote it down. (Members of KLI pay attention!  While I find this amusing it is also very serious.)

We (KLI) seek to make disciples, who make disciples, who make disciples unto our Lord Jesus Christ.  We are called to reveal Him for when He is revealed 1 John 3:2 says that "when He is revealed we shall be like Him for we shall see Him as He is."  We are passionate about inviting Christ's abiding presence personally and corporately within our city and region.  But that requires entering at a narrow gate and following a narrow way.  The Greek word translated "strait" or "narrow" depending on your translation is absolutely insightful and intriguing when you understand the root of the word.

If you know me you know that I love to unpack the in depth meanings of Hebrew and Greek words.  The term league within the name of our ministry is loaded with meaning that expresses an important characteristic we are called to demonstrate.  "League" comes from the Hebrew word "berit."  This word in the Old Testament is usally translated...

What Can the Righteous Do When their Nation is on a Collision Course with an Eternal Truth?

1/10/2014

 
Picture
For look! The wicked bend their bow, They make ready their arrow on the string,
That they may shoot secretly at the upright in heart.  If the foundations are destroyed,
What can the righteous do? Psalm 11:2-3


There is no question there is a multifaceted all out strategic attack being launched against the truth of God's word in all spheres of society through people who have rejected God and His Word. From Common Core in the education realm, to an attack on God's family design from Hollywood and organizations like GLADD, to ObamaCare which is decimating not only healthcare but has also affected the relgious sphere, family, business and government spheres of society.  For a nation whose foundation was so grounded upon God's word and His principles in its conception this is disastrous.  The fruit of our wars, economy, disease, crime etc. all reflect the warnings described in the Pentateuch.  These are ancient truths.

It's like the principle of gravity.  It's not the fall that hurts.  It is the sudden stop the body experiences when flesh encounters something that's existed much longer than it.  It  is the earth that has been here since creation.  Our nation is on a crash course with eternal truth and it is time to brace for impact. 

Eternal spiritual truths are just that : eternal truths.  If you ignore them eventually you will run into the truth and the encounter with the truth can be disastrous.   Respect God's word and you can enjoy the benefits.  Reject God's word and you can enjoy  the results of your choice.  

Our nation became the most prosperous nation in the world because Biblical principles from the foundation of God's word were so integrated in the formation of our government and its judicial system.  One thing to note is that no system of government works unless there are men of character to oversee it.  I don't care if we are talking about democracy, a republic, socialism, communism or a dictatorship.  All will fail without character.  The character is the foundation of a man's soul.  

Without going into the reason why nor attempting to assign blame I'll just acknowledge that there are wicked men (women) in some of the highest offices of our nation.  I emphasize wicked because one of the meanings of that word is twisted.  Their thinking is twisted therefore their logic is twisted and there are consequences associated with implementing unrighteous laws and policies.  I.e. see 1st and 2nd Kings and do a study on the kings who "causes Israel to sin." 

So the question is; if the foundations are destroyed, "what can the righteous do?"

The Fast that God Chooses is Loaded with Benefits

1/2/2014

 
Picture
Yesterday I shared how fasting and prayer can affect world events click here for Fasting & Shaping History. Today I'd like to talk about the two kinds of fasting described in Isaiah 58.  One is a fast motivated by pride and religion.  The second is the fast that God chooses.

A religious fast that is motivated primarily by pride and works yields works that God takes no notice in.   Their prayers for justice go unheard and their affliction is unseen by God.  Why?  

Isaiah 58:3-4  
'Why have we fasted,' they say, 'and You have not seen? Why have we afflicted our souls, and You take no notice?'  "In fact, in the day of your fast you find pleasure,
And exploit all your laborers. Indeed you fast for strife and debate, And to strike with the fist of wickedness. You will not fast as you do this day, To make your voice heard on high. NKJV


God won't hear because the purpose of the fast primarily motivated by pride.  Pride blinds a person from God's righteousness therefore their prayers and actions are misdirected.  They are not right.  Their prayer and actions do not line up with God's word.  This is evidenced by how they exploit or take advantage of people and secondly misdirected justice.  Wicked is the root word of wicker like in wicker furniture.  It's called wicker because it is twisted.  Wicked means twisted or evil.  Therefore justice is misguided and correction is brought in wickedness.  James sheds some light as to why this is.

What's God Saying for 2014?  Part 3 - A Harvest Moon is Arising! 

1/1/2014

 
Picture2 Super Moons Occur in January 2014
Only an hour after I posted Part 2 of What's God Saying for 2014 I saw a sign and a wonder God gave to mark the word about how God intends His light to shine in darkness.  It was two super moons (1st & the 30th) that occur in January.  

Talk about a light that shines in darkness.  Super moons occur when they are closest to the earth.  Hence it is lighter in the dark.  Truly a light shined in darkness.  As I considered Luke 21:25-28 recognizing God uses the sun, moon and stars to communicate in the latter days I asked Him for greater insight into what these two super moons meant.


That's when I heard a "harvest moon is arising."  A harvest moon occurs in the fall on the Saturday nearest the fall equinox.  Its a full moon opposite the sun.  The farmers call it a harvest moon because it provides more light so they can harvest late into the night (click here for more explanation).

God used this sign to mark His word I shared in Part 2 of What's God Saying for 2014; " We will see more decisions for Christ this year as we draw nearer the dawning of a 3rd Great Awakening."  

God is calling forth the sons of light  and giving us a harvest moon so we can work late into the night.  Why?  Because the harvest is not complete.  There is still much work to do.

It's time to prepare for harvest my friends.  January is not the fall.  It's not time for harvest.  But Amos 9:11 teaches us that one of the keys to the harvest is the restoration of David's tabernacle (24/7 prayer, praise and worship in a city).  As it is restored (ie. through strategies such as Operation Rolling Thunder) we will see the plowman overtake the reaper.  The prayer movement that has been establishing houses of prayer throughout the world has been one of the tools God has used to restore David's tabernacle. Therefore, harvesting and planting will begin to overlap.  We will harvest in season and out of season.  In fact now, every season is a season to harvest.

Matthew 9:37-38 (Luke 10:2)
Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.  38 Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." NKJV


This harvest is so huge we need all hands on deck.  We need to prepare to let our nets (plural) down so we can receive this harvest for our Lord.  This is why we've been seeking to connect churches in cities through our strategies for years.  Join us in praying for but also in harvesting souls this year for our Lord Jesus Christ.  Let Him receive the just reward for His suffering.  

Fasting & Shaping History

1/1/2014

 
PicturePraying at the Western Wall
History is in the hands of the intercessors.  Throughout the ages fasting has been a powerful tool to intensify prayer.  Prayer and fasting empowers a person to change their personal history and a people to change their national history.  For example:
  • Personal fasting
  • Moses & Jesus both fasted for 40 days and their ministry unto the Lord changed their personal history and impacted the nations. (Ex. 24, 32-34, Matt.4).  Moses fasted food and water (complete fast) while Jesus did a normal fast.  He abstained from food and drank water.
  • Daniel determined by the book of Jeremiah that it was time for a prophecy to be fulfilled and initiated a 21 day partial fast (abstaining from certain foods) until he saw breakthrough.  (Dan. 9 - 10:4)

  • Corporate fasting 
  • Jehoshaphat proclaims a fast throughout all Judah because of the threat of war.  (2 Chron. 20:3)
  • Esther called the Jewish people to a complete fast (no food or water) for three days to seek God's intervention from a law that would kill her people. (Esth. 4:15-16) 

Jesus taught us to fast and pray too.  He just admonished us not to do it as the hypocrites did.  (Matt. 6:16-18).

The early Church also practiced regular fasting and prayer.  The Apostle Paul when describing his ministry in 1 Corinthians 6:3-10 said in verse that he was involved in "watchings" and "fastings."  Watching refers to abstaining from sleep and fasting refers to abstaining from food.

On January 2-8 our Church is entering into a 7 day fast to kick off the new year.  We expect to change history by being one of those lights that shines in darkness in 2014. Click here for God's word about a light shined in darkness in 2014. Here are some practical guidelines and lessons learned about how to fast.
