Month: August 2020

I see the game Jenga and consistently I am seeing blocks being removed. The Lord continues to whisper to me, “call for the fall of the iron and clay kingdom once and for all.”

Daniel 2:31-35 “You, O king, were looking and behold, there was a single great statue; that statue, which was large and of extraordinary splendor, was standing in front of you, and its appearance was awesome. The head of that statue was made of fine gold, its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of clay. You continued looking until a stone was cut out without hands, and it struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and crushed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were crushed all at the same time and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so that not a trace of them was found. But the stone that struck the statue became a great mountain and filled the whole earth.”

Once it falls once and for all Isaiah 2 will be activated, for both Daniel and Isaiah said these events are for “in the last days”.

Isaiah 2:2-4 “ Now it will come about that In the last days The mountain of the house of the LORD Will be established as the chief of the mountains, And will be raised above the hills; And all the nations will stream to it. And many peoples will come and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; That He may teach us concerning His ways And that we may walk in His paths. For the law will go forth from Zion And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. And He will judge between the nations, And will render decisions for many peoples; And they will hammer their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.

Nation will not lift up sword against nation, And never again will they learn war.”

Keep your eyes open there are two major shakings coming…in what order will they come I have not been told but biblically the second is typically first.

First shaking prophesied by Haggai is a shaking of the nations financially in order to restore “glory” to the temple.

Second shaking prophesied by Haggai is for the overthrowing of thrones, powers, chariots, horses and riders.

I sense we are entering a time of shaking and though it shakes fear not friends it’s just part of the uproot, tear down and destroy so the build and plant can begin. We are living in incredible, historic, biblical days.

Haggai 2:6-9 “For thus says the LORD of hosts, ‘Once more in a little while, I am going to shake the heavens and the earth, the sea also and the dry land. I will shake all the nations; and they will come with the wealth of all nations, and I will fill this house with glory,’ says the LORD of hosts. ‘The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine,’ declares the LORD of hosts. ‘The latter glory of this house will be greater than the former,’ says the LORD of hosts, ‘and in this place I will give peace,’ declares the LORD of hosts.”

Haggai 2:20-23 “Then the word of the LORD came a second time to Haggai on the twenty-fourth day of the month, saying, “Speak to Zerubbabel governor of Judah, saying, ‘I am going to shake the heavens and the earth. I will overthrow the thrones of kingdoms and destroy the power of the kingdoms of the nations; and I will overthrow the chariots and their riders, and the horses and their riders will go down, everyone by the sword of another.’ ‘On that day,’ declares the LORD of hosts, ‘I will take you, Zerubbabel, son of Shealtiel, My servant,’ declares the LORD, ‘and I will make you like a signet ring, for I have chosen you,’” declares the LORD of hosts.”

Jeremiah 1:9-10 “Then the LORD stretched out His hand and touched my mouth, and the LORD said to me, Behold, I have put My words in your mouth. See, I have appointed you this day over the nations and over the kingdoms, To pluck up and to break down, To destroy and to overthrow,

To build and to plant.”

Our generation has moved so far from their generation in how things are accomplished it’s no wonder we haven’t see what they saw. We have man-made ministries, man-made businesses, self-made millionaires and we call that success, something many desire. But God has another way, it’s called Yahweh and when He goes on display all the man-made is going to be revealed as such, the work of a man not a manifestation of God.

The demarcation is fast approaching when people see what God is about to reveal and when they see God they will leave man and follow God.

Psalm 44:3 “For by their own sword they did not possess the land,

And their own arm did not save them, But Your right hand and Your arm and the light of Your presence, For You favored them.”

Get ready because here comes the right hand of God; His arm; the light of His presence, these three things will be irresistible and irreplaceable.

The kingdom of God does not have an option called both, everyone is either one or the other.

Sheep or Goat (Matthew 25)

Wise or Foolish (Matthew 25)

Cain or Abel (Genesis 4)

Hot or Cold (Revelation 3)

Holy or Profane (Ezekiel 44)

The day of demarcation is here, choose this day whom you will serve.

Joshua 24:14-15 “Now, therefore, fear the LORD and serve Him in sincerity and truth; and put away the gods which your fathers served beyond the River and in Egypt, and serve the LORD. If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.”

God is like an art gallery. The invitation is to “Come, behold the works of the LORD” (Psalm 46:8). Many things we see we will not understand but that is why we are called to come behold not come analyze or criticize.

The invitation continues by saying “Cease striving and know that I am God;

I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth” (Psalm 46:10). Oh that the Lord would restore our ability to stand in awe and wonder, no matter how uneasy we may feel. Oh to stand and behold the awe that makes us wonder, who is this God of ours? Selah.

Psalm 47 puts a song in the soul to lift us above the fray of the narrative of the nations. Songs unto God have the ability to lift us up as we lift Him up. Sing people of God sing! He is highly exalted and worthy of praise.

Psalm 47

————-

O clap your hands, all peoples;

Shout to God with the voice of joy.

For the LORD Most High is to be feared,

A great King over all the earth.

He subdues peoples under us

And nations under our feet.

He chooses our inheritance for us,

The glory of Jacob whom He loves.

Selah.

God has ascended with a shout,

The LORD, with the sound of a trumpet.

Sing praises to God, sing praises;

Sing praises to our King, sing praises.

For God is the King of all the earth;

Sing praises with a skillful psalm.

God reigns over the nations,

God sits on His holy throne.

The princes of the people have assembled themselves as the people of the God of Abraham,

For the shields of the earth belong to God;

He is highly exalted.

As the countdown to Feast of Trumpets continues today Psalm 48 was the place of prayer and the Lord showed me, when we elevate the Lord we see His beauty. When we see His beauty elevated we discover beauty is weapon God uses against the enemy.

Psalm 48 says “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, In the city of our God, His holy mountain. Beautiful in elevation, the joy of the whole earth, Is Mount Zion in the far north, The city of the great King. God, in her palaces, Has made Himself known as a stronghold. For, lo, the kings assembled themselves, They passed by together. They saw it, then they were amazed; They were terrified, they fled in alarm. Panic seized them there, Anguish, as of a woman in childbirth.”

As God establishes His mountain in our midst it will be elevated in beauty and bring joy to the whole earth, at least that’s what King David said and the prophet Isaiah seems to agree.

Isaiah 2 “Now it will come about that In the last days The mountain of the house of the LORD Will be established as the chief of the mountains, And will be raised above the hills; And all the nations will stream to it. And many peoples will come and say, ‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, To the house of the God of Jacob; That He may teach us concerning His ways And that we may walk in His paths.’ For the law will go forth from Zion And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.”

Elevate the beauty of the Lord then joy will fill the whole earth and the enemy will panic. Sounds like God to me! Have a great Monday.

The days of a passive Jesus picture are over, the new era is bringing a fresh revelation of Jesus the Christ as our dread champion. The days of weak, apathetic church is over, we must recognize the truth that Israel was an army and we as the church are called to be warriors. The whole narrative of the church is about to do an about face as dread champions arise with the Lord being the model dread champion. This will not be the recycling of an old model, this will be a new prototype of power not seen in the last era.

“A DREAD CHAMPION was a warrior who was chosen by the king to represent him and the nation he ruled in, to battle against his enemies, in 1:1 combat against a warrior chosen by the opposing king or ruler. The king chose one warrior from his best, bravest, mightiest, and most loyal warriors. The winner took all for his nation or king. There was usually a lot of prestige, honor and prizes given to the winner by his king. Using a champion chosen by the king meant many lives were spared through battle, as long as both kings were in agreement to the rules and no one went back on his word at the end of the competition. The KING’S CHAMPION often won battle after battle, after all, he was the best warrior the King had and was dreaded by the king’s enemies, thus he became the “DREAD CHAMPION of the King”.

– Beverly Juelsgaard-Fischer

These dread champions will be seen in every area of society for the Lord loves people and He loves His church and He loves Israel. Dread champions will make people inside strong, will restore courage and like King David will activate a passive army with one smooth stone. There is no going back, everything is changing for the glory of God.

Jeremiah 20:11 “The LORD is with me like a dread champion!”
