Truth Bomb

People reveal their theology (what they believe about God) through the words they speak. Theology has been taught to them by other people standing behind pulpits, or podiums in schools and they believed it. Most people’s theology came from a book or some other person, not from spending time with God, who is perfect theology.

Truth is here and it is dismantling the theology men have taught us, so we can hear, see and interact with the God of the Bible, the Lord of Creation, Jesus the Christ and the Holy Spirit who is God. Men’s theology has become a stronghold and many spout it as truth, not realizing what they are saying isn’t even biblical.

I saw in the spirit “dams” (A barrier constructed across a waterway to control the flow or raise the level of water) that are blocking the flow of what God wants to do in people, cities, churches, nations and the world. These dams had written on them the word, THEOLOGY. These dams were not granting access but hindering flow.

As I looked at these dams in the spirit, I saw truth coming like a bomb to blow up the dams so people could see, hear, and know God for who He is not for who someone told Him He was. As truth hit the dams of theology, the dam broke and the river of God rushed into people’s lives and set them free.

John 8:31-32 “Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”

I see truth incoming and incoming in a way that is going to blow up our theology.

The Four Craftsmen (Coders)

We are living history in the making. When you are living it, many struggle to see it. Prophets have declared it, now it is manifesting on earth as it is in heaven. Can you see it? Can you hear it? Can you discern the day of your visitation? Oh the sweet fragrance of the presence of God invading earth, there is no smell quite like it.

A good friend of mine sent me a video this morning that brought me behind the curtain on something’s I could not have known. Now that I have heard, now that I have seen, I was given insight in ways I did not have before and the Holy Spirit spoke to me and said, “The four coders are the four craftsmen of Zechariah 1.”

I immediately opened my bible to read, “And I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, four horns! And I said to the angel who talked with me, “What are these?” And he said to me, “These are the horns that have scattered Judah, Israel, and Jerusalem.” Then the LORD showed me four craftsmen. And I said, “What are these coming to do?” He said, “These are the horns that scattered Judah, so that no one raised his head. And these have come to terrify them, to cast down the horns of the nations who lifted up their horns against the land of Judah to scatter it.”

We have been living under the authority of the four horns for so long, just as Israel lived in Egypt or under Babylon, so when the matrix of wickedness was breaking some did not believe it or see it. God has released the four craftsmen again and they are systematically dismantling things we are seeing and hearing about on the news today.

The kingdom of God, which is the government of God, the mountain of the Lord (Isaiah 2) is ruling on earth as it is on heaven again. Can you see the stone striking the feet of iron and clay (Daniel 2)? Turn on the news, you will see what is falling and hear about what is rising. Babylon has fallen and will continue to fall and the kingdom is rising and will be an everlasting kingdom. We are living in biblical history as our current reality.

Die Fly!

Flies and frogs. The Lord has been speaking to me for over a week now about flies and frogs. As the swamp is drained the frogs are croaking louder and louder, while the flies are buzzing around and laying eggs on open wounds and dead things.

These are two animals I do not think much about, but when the Holy Spirit highlights them, I must pay attention. In Revelation 16 frogs are called unclean spirits that come out of the mouth of three creatures, the dragon, the beast and the false prophet. Frogs are voices that are polluting the atmosphere.

Flies are linked biblically to Mark 3:22 where Jesus is accused of using the Lord of the flies in His ministry. “The scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, “He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” The Holy Spirit told me the flies are lies that are landing on open wounds and laying eggs in order to multiply the lie.

I have been on a prayer retreat for the past four days and when I opened a drawer in the place I am staying a fly came out. As the day went on more than one fly was flying around. I grabbed the fly swatter and killed a total of eight flies, then the Lord said, “Those are the lies that are flying around people. They need to kill them or they will lay eggs on their wound and multiply their lies.”

Today is the end of my prayer retreat, all the flies are dead, and what is amazing is a butterfly was seen. Butterflies represent new life, transformation. Taking out the lies in the spirit, silencing the croaking of the frogs in prayer is how we deal with atmospheric enemies who are seeking to divide. For Jesus said in Mark 3:24 “, “How can Satan cast out Satan? If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.”

God is dealing with the flies and frogs in the nations, in our churches, in our families, in our lives. The reason for this is because New Life is upon us and the old lies (flies) and old polluted thoughts (frogs) are not allowed in our new day (butterfly) life. The enemy is defeated in so many ways, now we rise up together and enjoy the sights and sounds of new life and declare “Die Fly”.

Leaders Yes, A King No

Have you ever asked for something, got what you asked for and then after further consideration realized you should not have asked for what you originally asked for? We all have done this. In the moment we think we want one thing, only later to find out we didn’t really want what we thought we wanted so badly in the moment we asked for it.

Israel told the prophet Samuel they wanted a king, despite Samuel warning them they did not know what they were asking for, but they gave three reasons why they wanted a king. “And they said, “No! But there shall be a king over us, 1. that we also may be like all the nations, and 2. that our king may judge us and 3. That our king will go out before us and fight our battles.” (1 Samuel 8)

Samuel the prophet told them the Lord wants to be your king and they said, NO! We want an earthly king. Oh friends, how often do we want from men what God has already said He wants to be for us? More often than we will ever admit. We ask for things we think we want, but we end up getting what we never wanted.

God wanted them to be a different kind of nation; they wanted to be like all the other nations. God wanted to be judge of them; they wanted to be judged by men. God wanted to fight their battles for them; they wanted a man to fight their battles for them. A man became their god and in becoming so, God was no longer the one they leaned on or depended on.

Friends, it is subtle, it is sneaky, and it is serious to ask for a man to be your king, when God has already declared He is your King of kings and Lord of lords. If we need to repent of anything personally, corporately and nationally it is for asking God to give us a king, when He is our King. We need leaders, we need authority, we need men, but a king, nope, we have a King and His name is Jesus.

Blade Change Needed

The other day I was walking into a location to meet a friend for coffee and I saw a man cutting cinder blocks with a power saw. I walked by, took notice and thought, I had never saw anything like that before. With ease he was using this saw blade to cut through those cement blocks. This morning in prayer the Lord said, “It is time to change the blade”.

Christianity and prayer movements have been using one blade called breakthrough, but God is changing the blade to saw through. Some strongholds don’t break, they don’t bend, they don’t burn, some strongholds must be sawed through. In prayer this morning the Lord showed me rebar in the spirit as a stronghold.

Rebar is short for reinforcement bar or reinforcing bar, known when massed as reinforcing steel or steel reinforcement; is a tension device added to concrete to form reinforced concrete and reinforced masonry structures to strengthen and aid the concrete under tension.

The strongholds God is cutting down demands a blade that can cut through rebar and cement. What I saw in the spirit was rebar that was cemented in people’s soul which went back to childhood. The rebar is the stronghold that has been holding the lie in place for many many years.

The blade must change in prayer if we are going to be successful at cutting through the rebar and the cement in order to set people free from their strongholds of lies they can’t stop believing.

2 Corinthians 10:3-6 “For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.”

God is giving us a new blade to use in prayer so we can saw through the rebar which is a stronghold and the cement which is holding the rebar in place, so we can be set free from the stronghold of lies that are hindering us from the freedom Christ has come to give us. It’s time to change the blade we use in prayer.

Treating Casually Creates Casualty

The Holy Spirit has been speaking to me about how familiar people are with God and how casually they treat Him. Many treat God so casually they decide whether they want to obey God or not; they choose how they want to treat people created in God’s image; they decide if they want to raise their hands, sing or not in church; shoot they decide whether or not they even want to pray. The spirit of familiarity has bred a generation of people who have treated God causally.

This morning I was reading 1 Samuel 6:20 “Who is able to stand before the Lord, this holy God?” The people were struck by the fear of God and recognized the power of God, which is what produced this statement they said about God. A church that does not operate in the power of God not only produces a powerless people, it creates a casual Christianity that keeps us familiar with God.

The Holy Spirit said to me moments ago, “When people treat God casually they become a casualty.” I had to look up the definition of casualty and what I found is this, “A casualty, as a term in military usage, is a person in military service, combatant or non-combatant, who becomes unavailable for duty due to any of several circumstances, including death, injury, illness, missing, capture or desertion.” We have many casualties in the body of Christ, because we have treated God casually.

Friends, familiarity with God has bred a generation that does not honor God, does not obey God, does not worship God, does not respect God’s word or His ways, or His commands. We have become so comfortable with God we think God approves of everything we do and say. Our treatment of God casually has created many casualties. We must repent for treating God so casually, He is God, we are not.

Change Is Happening

The season has changed, but not instantly, rather is changing continually. This has nothing to do with weather, circumstances or current realities. The season has changed has to do with a decree from heaven to the earth.

The sackcloth is being removed layer by layer. The tears are being bottled and wiped from our cheeks. The pain of the past is slowly giving way to the joy of a bright future. This is not a quick process, but it is a process that has been set in motion by the spirit of God.

The cooing of doves, the chirping of birds, the bubbling brook, the leaves rustling in the wind. If you listen to creation, you can hear it, the season has changed. The days of mourning are giving way to the days of rejoicing. The funeral dirge is giving way to the wedding song.

“Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth! Sing to the LORD, bless his name; tell of his salvation from day to day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples!” (Psalm 96)

Our song is our steering wheel directing us in the way we should go. Sing my friends sing, sing a new song unto the Lord. Sing a new song over your family, over your friends, over your community, over your city, over your nation. Sing, sing, sing.

It may not look like it yet, but the season has changed and the manifestation of that change will be seen and we are being invited to sing a new song unto the Lord, for He has done marvelous things.

I took this picture while driving the other day and the Lord said, the sun is breaking through the clouds, can you see the change?

Salt In The Wound

Words are powerful. They get stuck in our minds, lodged in our hearts, roll around in our heads, heal our souls. We sing them, we speak them, we write them, we think them. Proverbs says, the power of life and death is in the tongue. James says, the tongue is the smallest member of the body but has the most power. Words are eternal.

Words also change over time, phrases take on new meanings, so when we hear something we assume it means what we have learned it to mean. However, when God speaks, if we assume we know what He is talking about we may miss what He is saying.

The Lord spoke to me the other day the word forgive and said, “Forgiveness is pouring salt in a wound.” I said to the Lord, pouring salt in a wound is adding insult to injury, then the Holy Spirit said, “Not originally, look it up.” So I did and what I found made total sense why the Lord said, “Forgiveness is pouring salt in a wound.”

Originally, before medication was so readily available, they would pour salt in a wound, for salt acted as an anticeptic, anti-bacterial, anti-viral medicinal agent. Pouring salt in a wound actually healed the wound. How we went from pouring salt in a wound as a medicinal act, to it adding insult to injury I am not sure. But what I do know, is that when we forgive someone we are actually pouring salt in their wound and healing them.

We hurt people out of our own woundedness, so when we forgive people we pour salt in their wound and it heals them. Makes me wonder if this why Jesus said in Matthew 5 “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.” We are called to be ones who forgive others by pouring salt in their wound for their healing.

Sneeze!!!!

One of the primary tactics of the enemy is to either use your mouth or shut your mouth. The mouth is the primary vessel the enemy uses against God’s people.

When I lived in Malaysia for nine years, the enemy silenced me, he literally put his hand over my mouth and made me believe I was dying. Some circumstances arose that sought to confirm I was dying, but they proved to be lying signs and wonders.

The enemy has put his hand over many a people’s mouth, but God says, you are not dead, you are not breathless, you are fully alive. While the enemy is covering your mouth, the Lord is laying on top of you, eye to eye, mouth to mouth and hand to hand. Your body is warm, but you have not begun to breath on your own yet.

2 Kings 4 speaks of Elisha the prophet and this is what it says, “When Elisha came into the house, he saw the child lying dead on his bed. So he went in and shut the door behind the two of them and prayed to the LORD. Then he went up and lay on the child, putting his mouth on his mouth, his eyes on his eyes, and his hands on his hands. And as he stretched himself upon him, the flesh of the child became warm. Then he got up again and walked once back and forth in the house, and went up and stretched himself upon him. The child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.”

The Lord is saying to you today, your body is warm, but your mouth is still shut by the enemy so you are about sneeze, sneeze and sneeze again. Sneeze means violently forcing air out through the nasal passage while the cavity of the mouth is shut off. I am telling you, the enemy has his hand over your mouth, but God is laying on you and you are about to sneeze and every virus in you is coming out of you in Jesus name. Sneeze friends sneeze, there is breath inside of you!!!!

Testing, Testing, Testing

What are we missing? What is the secret ingredient that makes it all come together? What is that one thing that binds, holds, humbles, calibrates, exposes, and gives us that which we are missing? Jesus told us the one thing we are missing is love. He said everything can be summed up in two commandments, love the Lord your God and love your neighbor as yourself. Is it any wonder this is the one thing we are missing in our homes, our churches, our friendships, our ministries, our companies, our cities, our countries?

The enemy could care less how much money you have or don’t have. He is not interested in how much you pray and how good you preach. He is not even moved by your gift, your calling, your destiny, your dreams, your desires or your ideas. There is one goal of the enemy and that is to cause your love to grow cold. His goal is to give you reasons to not give nor receive love.

1 Corinthians 13 says, if you have all these other things, but have not love, you are nothing. Love is the only goal and if you are a lover, all these things you desire will be added to you. The challenge is we do not evaluate ourselves to see if we are speaking in love, acting in love, or if our motive is love.

We take a lot of tests, to know who we are, but if we don’t take the love test, it doesn’t matter how talented, gifted or skilled you are. If you have not love, you are nothing. Let’s take the test…”Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. Love doesn’t strut, Doesn’t have a swelled head, Doesn’t force itself on others, Isn’t always “me first,” Doesn’t fly off the handle, Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others, Doesn’t revel when others grovel, Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth, Puts up with anything, Trusts God always, Always looks for the best, Never looks back, But keeps going to the end. Love never dies.” (1 Cor. 13)

This is not about marriage but about every relationship. Are you a lover? Only you and God know if you pass the test, but if you don’t it is time to return to your first love ❤️.
