Unity Is Community

What if I told you unity is what gives you community? How many people are lacking community in the body of Christ, not realizing they have no community because they do not have unity. Oh my friends, the Lord is so good in correcting us up, we as the church are divided in so many ways. We are demoninationally divided and it plays out in conversations on social media that amplifies the divide, because so many voices are revealing the divide by the comments they make when someone says something they oppose or vehemently disagree with. This should not be.

The body of Christ is to be unified, not uniformed, but unified. Our unity is what makes us a community. To be in unity we must lay down our lives for our friends, for Jesus said, not greater love than this, than you lay down your lives for your friends. Now I am not asking for corporate, national or international unity, not yet, but what if we could be unified with one person in our life?

Psalm 133 says, “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!” Good means pleasing, joyful, delightful, beautiful and pleasant means sweet, pleasure, agreeable, lovely, singing, sounding, musical. This means unity is a song we sing and sound others hear. The psalmist goes on to say, “For there the LORD has commanded the blessing, life forevermore.” This means the blessing of unity is life forevermore. Life means fresh, strong, springing up, community. Unity is what blesses us with community; it keeps us strong and fresh; alive and flowing.

I exhort you to find one person you can be unified with, then find another two, three or four you can be unified with, eventually we may have a whole church that is unified, then the body of Christ might one day be unified. Jesus’ prayer in John 16 is that we would be one as He and His Father are one. Unity is being one with God and one with each other and there is a blessing in it we have not actualized, at least not yet. Unity is community and it is a blessing.

Outfit Change

THE PRIESTS ARE GETTING AN OUTFIT CHANGE!!!!!! Do you know who you are? Did you know 1 Peter 2 calls you a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God? Do you realize you are a priest not a problem? Did you know you are a saint, not a sinner? What you call yourself is what you will manifest. We must know who we are, because God is giving the priests an outfit change.

I was at the mall the other day and I was noticing how people dress. I was observing various styles, choices, combinations, I was seeing what I like, what I don’t like and I was celebrating the diversity with which we express ourselves as humanity by the clothes we chose to wear. Every culture has a dress code, and many people can be identified by what they wear. The Bible says, so goes the natural so goes the spirit. Well, there is a dress code in the spirit and the priests are getting an outfit change.

The media has amplified the failings of many leaders in the body of Christ who have been wearing what Zechariah 3 describes as filthy garments, “Now Joshua the high priest, was clothed in filthy garments as he stood before the angel of the Lord.” The filthy garments of pride, immorality, greed, selfishness, but God is doing an outfit change on His priests.

God is removing the filthy garments which has discouraged, dissappointed and caused the people to despise leaders and He is giving them new garments. Psalm 132 says, “Let your priests be clothed with righteousness, and let your saints shout for joy.” “Her priests I will clothe with salvation, and her saints will shout for joy.”

The outfit change for the priests is going to bring joy to the saints. God is making all of us new, no one is being left out, no matter what has happened in the past, God is redeeming the time and restoring the years. Friends, we are priests and kings to our God and He is doing an outfit change on us and then the world which has been labeled as sinners are going to become saints that shout for joy. But it all starts with us, His body, His priesthood getting an outfit change. It is time to put on that robe of righteousness and that cloak of salvation, and when you do the world will shout for joy!!!!

Green or Grow

One of the things I love about the LORD is that He reveals truth to you in the most obvious places, but always at the perfect time. I walk my dog every morning, we walk by the same houses in our neighborhood and in the neighboring neighborhoods every day. Today, I was in my cul de sac and I walk by a house I walk by daily, usually more than once a day. This house is unique to our neighborhood because it is the only one that has turf instead of grass. The obvious difference is palpable with just one look.

Today, I am walking by the turf yard and they have automatic sprinklers watering the turf. I pondered why would you water turf, it does not grow like grass does. I realized they water it to keep it green, not to make it grow. Immediately the Holy Spirit speaks to me and says, “Many people are in churches that are watering people to keep them green, so they look good, but are not watering people so they can grow.” I pondered this thought the rest of my walk.

How many people in your life are watering you to keep you green so you look good, but are not encouraging you with their words to grow? We have more churches in America and honestly around the world than we can even count. Whether in homes, buildings, stadiums, parks, or on street corners, there is no lack of churches, but the challenge is if we are being watered we must ask ourselves is it for our growth or to just keep us green? Only you know the answer to this question. I don’t go to church so I can stay green, I go to church so I can be challenged to grow. I do not want to be a turf Christian that looks green but never grows. I want to be a grass Christian that goes brown when I lack water and that needs to be mowed to remain beautiful because I grow so fast when watered. Turf or grass, which are you?

Repent Four The Kingdom Of God Is Here

A brief word of caution…be aware of what is at work inside of you. There is so much good news coming out of the mouth of God, but if you have a spirit that is contrary to good news, take notice and repent, for the kingdom of God is at hand. If you hear people speak of prosperity coming and something in your rises against that good news, take notice. If you hear of healing being released and something in you doesn’t believe it, take notice. If you hear of reconcilliation happening and you laugh, be aware. We must realize our reaction to what we hear is something inside of us working against what God is doing. There are many reasons for this, but we responsible for how we respond to good news and make sure we are not more comfortable with death, destruction and the works of the devil than we are with the good news that the kingdom of God is at hand.

Everyone in the body of Christ is called to add value to the body of Christ. Know who you are called to be and what value you are called to add and then allow others to add the value they bring to the table, for they are bringing it for your enjoyment, just like you are bringing yours for theirs.

I was reading Zechariah 1 this morning and the Lord shared some more good news with me about what He is doing. Listen to this, “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.”

The days of the four horns is over and the days of the four craftsmen are here. The four craftsmen have come to gather, to build, to terrify not you, not me, but the four horns that came to scatter, to divide, to terrorize. We cannot let our history hinder God’s current and coming reality. Pay attention to how much your historical experiences are hindering your ability to see God’s current and coming reality. It is and will continue to be so much better than we could have ever asked for or even imagined, and currency needed is faith. Believe my friends, believe, He is really that good!

Good News Alert!

Good News Alert!!!!! 🚨

I was on a prayer call this morning with two wonderful mature women of God from across this nation and the one of them said 2 Chronicles 20 and the Lord said, “Listen closely to this chapter.” I get off the call and I read the chapter, then in 2 Chronicles 20:24 (2024) it says, “When Judah came to the watchtower of the wilderness, they looked toward the horde, and behold, there were dead bodies lying on the ground; none had escaped.” The Lord said, “This is the year to get up in the watchtower (observatory, look out point, Mizpah) and look toward the horde (wealth, abundance, storehouses). Those who do not get up into the watchtower will not see the battle clearly.” Before they even had to fight, the battle was already won!!!!

I keep reading and the news gets better and better. “When Jehoshaphat and his people came to take their spoil, they found among them, in great numbers, goods, clothing, and precious things, which they took for themselves until they could carry no more. They were three days in taking the spoil, it was so much.” (2 Chronicles 20:25 – 2025). Now they are sent in to take the spoil and it takes them 3 days to collect all the booty!!!!

Oh we are not done yet, listen to this, “On the fourth day they assembled in the Valley of Beracah, for there they blessed the LORD. Therefore the name of that place has been called the Valley of Beracah to this day.” Four in Hebrew is door, Dalet, pathway to enter, we are in the Hebrew year 5784, the year of the open door! But here is the best news, the Valley of Bearcah, Berachah is prosperity, blessing, treaty of peace, fish pool. Do you know what this means, we are entering a valley of prosperity to collect the spoils from a battle that was won long before we even got there, so we need to get up in the watchtower or we will not see the battle is won and booty is awaiting our arrival!

Spider Attack

Wow, the enemy is not happy with what God is doing. Nate Johnston is speaking about witchcraft that has been loosed; John Castleman is sharing how the attack has come to his neighborhood; Lou Engle is calling for 90 days of prayer; Emma Stark is speaking into it. These are not past videos, these are this week videos, all saying the same thing, all experiencing the same attack, the same assault, the same invasion of the enemy in a very real way.

It is easy to think it is you. You said something wrong, you did something wrong, you are just dealing with the outcome of some bad choice you made, but this is not that, this is an all out assault on God’s people. It is not political it is spiritual. Whew, can you feel it, are you experiencing it?

On Monday morning I had three encounters with spiders. The first one was on my window screen right at eye level of where I sit at my desk every day. Then not long after there was a small black spider on my wall right where my desk is facing crawling along. Then I took the dog for a walk and as I was about to go out the gate, there was a web from bush to bush with a huge fat black spider right at eye level in the middle of the web. If I didn’t look up, I would not have seen it. Three spiders, different locations, same day. I knew it meant something but what I did not know.

Spiders prophetically represents a deceiver, a web of lies; threat; evil spirit; oh if I would have took notice at the moment of these three spiders and began to pray and break their announcement before they could attack. I learned a lesson this week, the Lord reveals ahead of time what is coming so we can shoot it down before it rises up. What a hard lesson to learn, because this attack has been different than others and many are feeling it.

I squished the small black spider on the wall, I sliced through the web and went out the gate, and the one on the window went away, but what they came to do is here. Friends don’t give up what you value when the enemy is on the scene, we must learn to link arms in the battle for one can put a thousand to flight, but two can put ten thousand to flight. We need each other for the attack is real and it is fierce.

Confidence From The Underground

In 2015 the Lord spoke to me and said, “I have plenty of people above ground, but very few people who are willing to go underground. Will you go underground so I can heal this land?” I remember exactly where I was when the Lord asked me to go underground. I gave Him a very quick reply, I said, yes I would. I did not know exactly what that would mean at the time, but being underground led me to learn how to do what I call prophetic adventures.

A prophetic adventure is where you are reading the word of God and the Lord highlights something and invites you to act on what you read. For me it began with reading Genesis 26 where it speaks of Isaac redigging his father Abrahams wells, because the Philistines had thrown dirt in them. Spiritually this looked like me going to various locations and praying on location for whatever happened there and asking the Lord to do it again.

Missouri has had many moves of God, so I went to Smithton, MO to the little country church that saw the power of God; I then went to Concordia, MO where Kathryn Kuhlman was born and prayed for a well of healing to spring up; I went to other places in Missouri where AA Allen had tent meetings. I also traveled to Oklahoma where William Brahmam had a school; to Azusa Street in CA where William Seymour saw an outpouring; to Indiana where Marie Woodworth Etter had tent meetings. Location after location to redig wells and ask for the Lord to heal our land.

Another thing the Lord invited me to do was salt rivers according to 2 Kings 2 and decree neither death nor barrenness would be in the land any longer. I was invited to blow the shofar and make a salvation declaration for our land. Adventure after adventure after adventure. Then Gina Gholston through Dutch Sheets invited us to paint the borders of our states. All this underground work was done per the voice of the Lord by many Intercessors around the nation.

Then this morning I am reading 2 Samuel 24:21 and it says, “Araunah said, “Why has my lord the king come to his servant?” David said, “To buy the threshing floor from you, in order to build an altar to the LORD, that the plague may be averted from the people.” King David did a prophetic act and 2 Samuel 24:25 says, “So the LORD responded to the plea for the land, and the plague was averted from Israel.”

I know the work that has been done underground, this is why I am so confident in the deliverance of our nation by God. The Lord is responding to all the work that was done when no one was looking. America is being saved not destroyed, fear not!

Restoration of Fortunes Incoming

It is going to look one way, but it is going to be something completely different, your eyes are going to deceive you based on your history because it is a mystery. The Lord is about to reveal a mystery of reversal of the likes we did not know was possible. It is going to look strikingly similar to past situations, but the outcome is going to be completely different. If you listen to the fear mongers, the dooms day speakers, you will be paralyzed in the mystery of prosperity that is unfolding right before your eyes.

When Jesus said in Matthew 24 all the shaking that would happen from earthquakes to wars, He was not fear mongering, He was telling His people who had ears to hear that He was shaking out the powers, principalities and rulers, for the kingdom of God was coming in with righteousness, justice and peace. Most missed it because it looked like another enemy invasion, but it was a kingdom expansion.

The Bible is clear that the Lord comes in the storm clouds, He descended on Sinai, as well as in the upper room in fire; He came like a flood in Genesis and He comes in water while Jesus is being baptized in water. Friends, it may look similar to something you have seen before, but the results are going to be so different. God is coming to rescue, restore and rekindle, not to destroy us. It is going to be a mystery and many will miss it as it is actually happening, but I am telling you, this is going to be epic.

Psalm 126 is what we are going to experience, “When the LORD restored the fortunes of Zion, we were like those who dream. Then our mouth was filled with laughter, and our tongue with shouts of joy!” It is Psalm 126 time!!!!!

Harvest Time

As our children go back to school today, we as parents need to make a decree according to Psalm 125, “As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds his people, from this time forth and forevermore. For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, lest the righteous stretch out their hands to do wrong.”

The enemy is such a coward he will attack children, teenagers, young adults, anyone who is spiritually not able to see his tactics. We who know our God, must decree over our schools, that the Lord is surrounding our children from this time forth and forevermore. We must decree the scepter of wickedness will not, shall not, can not rest on the land allotted to us the righteous. This is our decree and we will see our children thrive, blossom, even advance the kingdom in their schools.

The school system is a harvest field and many of us have sent our workers out into this field. Now we must pray, we must decree, we must add our authority to them as they go into the harvest field. The fields are white unto harvest, we know this; Christ in our kids is greater than he that is in the world, we know this; there is no junior Holy Spirit, we know this; so we decree Psalm, 125 over our children today.

We declare healing is in their hands; power is in their mouths; purity is in their eyes; discernment is in their ears; and God is with them in every school around the nation. We decree no weapon formed against them shall prosper, no tongue that rises up against them in judgment shall prevail. We decree they are the head and not the tail; they are generous with their words of life; they will be able to discern good and evil.

It is going to be a year of reaping the harvest in schools this year and our children are the workers. This is a multigenerational move of God and it has begun. They were born for such a time as this. Fear not, for the Lord our God is with them, in Jesus name.

Heavens Decree

A decree has been made from the throne room in heaven. The Lord has spoken and He is making an announcement today for all to hear. This decree is from heaven to earth, “The snare is broken, and we have escaped!” Says the Lord. I can’t explain it, I can’t show it to you in real time, but the Lord has made a decree and it cannot be changed. “The snare is broken and we have escaped.”

I was praying Psalm 124 this morning and it says, “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side, then they would have swallowed us up alive. Then the flood would have swept us away. Then over us would have gone the raging waters.” I believe it was getting very precarious in a way we will never understand, because the Lord did not allow the enemy to have his way with us. I believe we have been saved from some situations that sought to destroy us, but God.

As I continued to pray, I read verse 7 and it says, “We have escaped like a bird from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped!” Immediately I heard a herald from heaven decree, “The snare is broken and we have escaped” says the Lord of hosts. Oh my friends, the Lord is on our side, He is not against us, He is for us, personally, locally, nationally, internationally. He has made a decree and now we will see that the snare is broken and we have been set free.

I am sitting here with tears in my eyes, gratitude in my heart and ears burning as the voice of God spoke with such clarity, such confidence, such authority, “The snare is broken and we have escaped!” All I can do is rejoice, celebrate and declare to you what He has spoken to me. We will see what He has said, it is just a matter of time.
