So, What Is The Lord Saying Or Doing? (12/3/2008)

It is my belief that we Christians depend too much on what an individual pastor or an individual prophet or another anointed person thinks that he (or she) is hearing from the Lord, rather than trying to hear for ourselves or listening to many different voices from all over the Body of Christ. Dependence on just an anointed few is a guaranteed recipe for failure.

So, each day, I invite you to write what you believe the Lord is telling you, showing you, or doing for you. Testimonies. Short teachings. Prophetic words. Scriptures. Prayers. Whatever you believe that the Body of Christ needs to know or will be blessed by hearing. Try to keep your words under 250 words. And if you need to, attach a link to your site for longer messages.

Terrorism Against America: New Game. New Rules.

india-terrorist1

Whether you like President George Bush or not, the facts are that we Americans have not suffered any terrorist attacks on our nation for seven years and three months. Or since September 11, 2001. It is not that Al Qaeda has forgotten us; they certainly have not. It is just that their plans have been exposed over and over again.

Bush critics argue that the president has had nothing to do with these successes. Instead, they applaud the FBI. Or the CIA.  Or Police Departments.  Or Airport Security. Or the Democratic-controlled Senate and House. Or Barbara Streisand and Oprah Winfrey. Anybody, but not President George Bush.

But the truth is that the Lord has placed a special anointing on President George Bush to keep terrorist attacks away from America during his presidency after 911. Why? Just like King Josiah, the Lord saw a humility in President Bush’s heart and a desire to serve Him; and also, the Lord wanted His fullness of time to be completed in our nation before a new season began in America.

So, on January 20, 2009, the Bush presidency ends; the Obama presidency begins. The special anointing will depart with President Bush. The lifting of the special anointing has nothing to do with Barack Obama, his policies, or the Democratic Party. It is the beginning of a new season in America.

So now, America has to learn a new game with new rules when it comes to terrorism. Let’s pray that we are quick learners.

Spiritual Warfare aka “The Football Game”

As a young Christian, my revelation of spiritual warfare was much like that of a football game. Satan and his monster crew versus us weak, pathetic Christians. But the sad thing about my revelation is that we Christians never played offense. We were always on defense, and the whole football game was played on our one-yard line.

So, Satan as the quarterback would march up behind his center, waiting for the snap to set the play in motion. I would turn around and look at my team mates. We were puny runts, barely able to wear pads. We were pathetic.

Satan would hand off to one of his four horseman in his backfield. The back would smash into the line; and somehow we would stop him. But after each play, we Christians were a little slower to get back on our feet. We were battered and bruised.

How much longer could we withstand the onslaughts of Satan’s team? They were so much bigger than us. We did not stand a chance of winning. O Lord, rapture us, please!

Then one day I had a new revelation about a time in the future. Then, the game would change. Then, the rules would change. Then, Jesus – the Lord God of Hosts – would be our quarterback. It would no longer matter how puny or unskilled we were because Jesus made each of us more than conquerors. We would walk the field as victors, not as wimps. Satan would always be on defense; and we Christians would always be on the offense.

That time that I saw in the future is now.

Picture of a Prophet

The prophet in his day is fully accepted of God and totally rejected by men.

Years back, Dr. Gregory Mantle was right when he said, “No man can be fully accepted until he is totally rejected.” The prophet of the Lord is aware of both these experiences. They are his “brand name.”

The group, challenged by the prophet because they are smug and comfortably insulated from a perishing world in their warm but untested theology, is not likely to vote him “Man of the year” when he refers to them as habituates of the synagogue of Satan!
