The structure we call church is being swallowed up by the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. This change is something we have never encountered before in our lifetime, this is why so many are struggling to understand how they are feeling and where they fit.

Our position in the kingdom of God is harvester, light bearer and love distributor. Our title in the kingdom is son and daughter. Our assignment is everyone, everywhere, everyday. We are doing what we are seeing our Father in heaven doing and He is doing a lot.

The system we have called church is a Sunday morning structure that is not sustainable and has not operated by design according to what the kingdom of God is doing, therefore, it is being swallowed up by the kingdom. This transformation is so beyond what we have ever known, some will leave the system, others will fight the system, still others will just sit in the system and never fulfill what they were created for.

The kingdom of God is at hand, many know it, not by feeling but by a sense deep in their spirit. They know they were made for more. They know the dreams, desires and promises God has given them and they are crying out in ways they cannot even hear, but God has heard.

We are in a crossing over time, we are literally standing on the threshold, we have never gone this way before and the snake is at the gate. The snake is biting those trying to cross over, poisoning them with offense, causing division, slandering and gossiping. These “Christian’s” do not know what spirit they are of.

The Lord is saying, “Don’t take the bait at the gate!’ The bait of the snake is at the gate and we cannot take the bait. The bait will hook you and hinder you, for the bait wants access to the kingdom and it is seeking to come in through you. The deception is, if you take the bait you will not go through the gate.

Jesus said in Luke 10:19, “You have been given authority over serpents and scorpions!” Use your authority over this spirits. Paul demonstrated in Acts 28, how to shake off the snake at the gate and to remember it cannot harm you (Mark 16), if you don’t take the bait. Friends, forgive them for they know not what they do, nor what spirit they are of. Don’t take the bait at the gate, for there are snakes at the gate.

Step over, go through, enter in. Don’t let the snake at the gate get you to take the bait, for you were born for such a time as this and the enemy at the gate doesn’t want you to enter in. But you must not take the bait that is right here at the gate or you will not be able to enter in. I pray you see the bait waiting at the gate, so you can resist it. Www.apostolicresourcecenter.org
