I am very sorry to those who come to this blog on a regular basis. However; I have much to report and write to you about over the next few days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the first time I have not written or received a Word for the New Year and this first month is almost over. I am not sure why that is. I asked the Lord to speak to me if He desired. I have not received a "normal" Word from the Lord as I have in the past because something really different is happening inside of me and in the places God is sending me to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not sure this is going to make any sense to you or not, but I encourage you to read a book by Wade Taylor called "Unlocking the Mysteries of the Kingdom." You can order it at www.wadetaylorpublications.org. This book is a critical book for those seeking to understand the day we live in. I would also encourage you to order the Anointing of the Moment that God gave me to write. It will help explain the transitional period of time we are living in within the Body of Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;About a year ago at one of our conferences, I began to notice that there was a change in how the Lord was responding to His people. Last year, the Lord spoke to me about the divine separation between the wheat and the chaff. He had me to read and meditate on the words John the Baptist spoke to the Pharisee's about the coming of the Lord Messiah.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 3:7  But when he saw a number of the Pharisees and Sadducee's coming to his baptism, he said to them, Offspring of snakes, at whose word are you going in flight from the wrath to come? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 3:8  Let your change of heart be seen in your works: Mat 3:9  And say not to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; because I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children for Abraham. &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 3:10  And even now the axe is put to the root of the trees; every tree then which does not give good fruit is cut down, and put into the fire. Mat 3:11  Truly, I give baptism with water to those of you whose hearts are changed; but he who comes after me is greater than I, whose shoes I am not good enough to take up: he will give you baptism with the Holy Spirit and with fire: &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 3:12  In whose hand is the instrument with which he will make clean his grain; he will put the good grain in his store, but the waste will be burned up in the fire which will never be put out. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;These are most important scriptures we must rightly understand if we are going to be able to cooperate with the present work of the Holy Spirit. John declares, " I will baptize you with the water of repentance, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with FIRE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Acts chapter 2 we saw the beginning of this scripture fulfilled. The Holy Spirit came upon them like tongues of fire and sat upon their heads and they all began to speak in other tongues. Yes, the first thing that happened is that they all spoke another language. We also know they were acting like drunken men as the Book of Acts reveals to us. Peter &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;had to&lt;/span&gt; tell them they are not drunk with natural wine, but this is what the Prophet Joel had prophesied of the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon all flesh.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From that point on until the beginning of the 20&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; century that Baptism of the Holy Spirit faded out over time except in a few places and in a few people, but in the early 1900 the Holy Spirit fell again in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Azusa&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Street and in Wales England. People will filled once again with the Holy Spirit and spoke in Tongues. This outpouring has continued up until the present moment of time restoring the 5 fold ministry gifts to the body of Christ and the Gifts of the Holy Spirit to the church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What this outpouring has not done is "complete us" or "finish" the work the Lord desired to do inwardly because much of the present and past leadership focused on gifts, power and to be blessed instead of being changed. We have watched since the 1980's many ministers fall and ministries who were once strong also fall into sin and temptation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This happened because the Fire that came upon their heads was supposed to consume us on the inside until we became one with the Lord in His desires and purposes. That would have taken a much deeper understanding of  why the Fire was poured out by the Holy Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It wasn't just to bless us or give us gifts, but it was to reign in the hearts of men to make us like our Lord to this world as a witness of the Kingdom of God. Unfortunately the world has seen some of His power, but mostly they laugh at us and mock our God because the Fire was not let in to truly change our nature and character!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2004, the Lord gave me specific instructions not to build a church, not to build a ministry but to establish the Kingdom of God in men's heart. I am now coming to know you can not do that without a true outpouring of the very flame of the Lord to burn in those hearts as a Baptism of Fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the present time during the church age, Jesus taught us that the "kingdom of God is within us." He taught us it is not meat or drink, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. He told us you can't see it with observation, because it was supposed to be a deep inner work of the Lord in us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The only evidence of Christ's kingdom can be found in a heart. Not in a church building or a cathedral where you may find religion, but the genuine Kingdom of God is found burning in the hearts of those who will surrender to the Lord as King!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Kingdom can only be found in those who have surrendered to it voluntarily.  "If any man be my disciple, let him deny himself, pick up his cross and follow me." It is conditional! Notice the "if any man?" This is the divine choice of separation the Lord is looking for that will allow the Fire of God to come to His temple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Know ye not, ye are the Temple of the Holy Spirit?" This present fire must be chosen voluntarily by us to  allow Him to burn His presence in  us to refine us as gold and silver as Malachi prophesied if we truly desire to be a wise virgin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many go to church today and get saved, but there is no evidence of the Kingdom of God in their life. They are saved because they trusted Jesus to save them and asked His forgiveness from sins. Yet there is no "inner quality" of the Holy Spirit manifesting His life through them continually. We may do nice things, even preach to the lost and pray for the sick, but the true quality of the Spirit, His character and nature has not come to maturity in us as of yet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The fruit of the Spirit from the Kingdom of God can hardly be seen in His people today because His Kingdom can only be seen in those who understand and submit to His Lordship and Kingship over their entire lives,and not just receiving Him as their Savior. Today, most of the church is still stuck at the cross being saved over and over again, and still trying to deal with the sin nature in them. Our best day is not "sinning" to much today! Does that sound like total victory to you?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today most Christians never go beyond the cross to the throne room where the Lord's &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;overcomers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; are to live and be next to him. It is in the throne room where the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;FIRE IS that we are changed from one degree of Glory to another. &lt;/span&gt;Our problem is we keep doing the same rituals of church service week after week and we never really change because we never receive the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Baptism of Fire which comes from behind the Veil that has been torn in two!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not acceptable to the Lord, so John prophesies something very special to the Pharisee's ears. I baptize you with water to repent from your sins. He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and with FIRE! Peter writes in His letters, " a day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. It has been 2000 years or two days since the Lord went up in the clouds to heaven. The Holy Spirit was poured out but near the end of the age or the end of the second day, it has run out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How has it run out? We are hardly changed into the image and likeness of the Lord. We barely make it a day without sinning somewhere. We are not filled with the Glory of God where are shadow is healing people, nor are we doing the greater works Jesus said we would do. Our character has not yet gone beyond babyhood unto full grown manhood as taught in Ephesians chapter 4.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So will the Lord do something about this? Yes! In John chapter 2 we read about the Miracle of the Wedding at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Cana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. This is a prophetic picture of the church age at the close of the second day and beginning of the third Millennial reign of Christ begins. I could write more about that, I encourage you to order the Anointing of the Moment, I explain this in the Holy Spirit in length.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What the Lord does at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Cana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is produce "NEW AND BETTER WINE" when the old wine has run out. The Master of the Wedding says, "most people serve the best wine first and the cheaper wine when the people get drunk, but you have saved the best wine for last.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Where did this wine come from? There was no wine left. The only thing that was around was 6 empty pots. 6 is the number of man and it also prophetic of the number of days. At the end of the 6&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; day the church would be empty and almost out of wine, but these pots were set apart for consecration John tells us. They were set apart for a Holy purpose. Jesus commands them to be filled with water. They are filled to overflow, but they are not wine just filled with water.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus tells the servants to "draw some out." This is a key to what I have been seeing with my own eyes as I travel this nation and the nations. The servant takes this water drawn up and &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"on the way"&lt;/span&gt; to the master of the house it &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;BECOMES WINE! &lt;/span&gt;We never hear about the other pots at all. Did all the pots of water get changed to wine? However; at least we know  this, the water that was drawn out first did get changed to wine!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Do you understand? One minute that cup was full of water, the next second it was wine. This is an end time prophetic picture of the miracle the Lord is about to do with this Baptism of Fire. It will change those that are getting ready as water into wine to be poured out in these end times. Do you want to be that new wine?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John concludes this time at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Cana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; by saying, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"this is the first miracle Jesus did to manifest his Glory!" &lt;/span&gt;It also says in verse 1 of John chapter 2 that Jesus did this miracle, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"on the third day! "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;On the third day&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;there was a wedding at &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Cana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;!"&lt;/span&gt; In Revelation 19:7-8 it states this,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"Rev 19:7  Let us be glad with delight, and let us give glory to him: because the time is come for the Lamb to be married, &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;and his wife has made herself ready.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Rev 19:8  And to her it was given to be clothed in delicate linen, clean and shining: for the clean linen is the righteousness of the saints."&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;His bride has prepared herself. This is what God desired to do in 2009. It was to bring the Flame of God into the Lord's church to refine it like gold and silver. The Lord was calling to all of us even louder in 2009 saying, "who is on the Lord's side and who will make themselves ready?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was not an easy choice for a believer to make because it would call for the most radical change from our old Christian lives as we have known it to receive the deepest fire of radical change we have ever known in God's kingdom! For the Lord to come as fire we could not then, and  we can not even now, live our lives as we have known them to be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For a believer to say yes to this fire from the Lord they needed a great sensitivity to understand what the Holy Spirit required from their lives. They also had to yield to His working in them to become one with the Lord and His purposes for our day and hour. In 2009 the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;TRUMPET OF THE LORD WAS CRYING &lt;/span&gt;with a call to the church to&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; "come out from among them my people and touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2009, a call to come out &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;was shouted &lt;/span&gt;from the Lord, and the Holy Spirit began to &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;separate those &lt;/span&gt;who would come from those who would not. I would liken this to the beginning process of identifying who will choose to be a wise virgin and who will chose to be the foolish virgin.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Every place the Lord sent me in 2009, He would tell me that I would be His threshing instrument. An instrument to throw the wheat and tares up in the air to separate the wheat from the chaff. The messages he gave me to preach surely were words of separation to those who had an ear to hear from those who only heard thunder.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The message God gave me for 2009 and still in 2010 is to put the first commandment first. God must be above all. We should love Him first with all our heart, soul, mind and strength and put no strange God's before Him. I preached all over this nation and in Mexico that the church has put the second commandment of loving your neighbor as yourself above the first commandment.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I preached over and over to return to your first love and do your first work! In many places God had me expose the true motives hidden in secret in the leadership. It was found that God's people loved their place and position more than they loved God. When God asked them to lay it down for a season many got so angry at me and the word and gnashed their teeth at me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never saw such hatred to a word from God. In the church today is the sin of "false ministry idolatry." This sin is to love our position and place more than God. Is that not what John warned his generation of when he said to the Pharisees,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 3:7  But when he saw a number of the Pharisees and Sadducee's coming to his baptism, he said to them, Offspring of snakes, at whose word are you going in flight from the wrath to come? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 3:8  Let your change of heart be seen in your works: &lt;/span&gt;  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 3:9  And say not to yourselves, We have Abraham for our father; because I say to you that God is able from these stones to make children for Abraham. Mat 3:10  And even now the axe is put to the root of the trees; every tree then which does not give good fruit is cut down, and put into the fire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They too loved their places of honor, Jesus would tell them that. They loved to be seen praying in front of men, Jesus told them that too. They loved to show everyone they were fasting, again Jesus spoke this as well. Today to many of God's leaders want to be seen by men. They love the front seat. They love the places of honor specially the Worship Leaders, Elders and Deacons.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those places of "honor" have become idols in many leaders heart greater than the Honor and worship that belongs to God. The Lord in this past year has had me speak and confront this lying spirit of Anti-Christ and idolatry and root it out in His house. I have been bad mouthed and much more. Many have said, How you can tell us this you are not perfect?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can you judge us? Who are you to say this is not what God wants? They are so mistaken! It is not me that is telling them this word. I did not write the Word of God or His commandments. I am called to live them as well and to preach His word! It is the Refining Fire of the Holy Spirit that is speaking to their hearts and bringing conviction of sin. I always tell them the Word of God is for me as well as them. I am still under construction!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader,I watched God separate the wheat from the tares this past year as I have never seen, and I have been warning the church to repent and look to God! We must submit to His Lordship and His Kingship now or we will not be ready to enter the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Millennial&lt;/span&gt; reign of Christ. But now to my point!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This new year 2010, I can't minister as I have in the past warning those who won't listen. This time the Lord said, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"concentrate on the wheat."&lt;/span&gt; I am not sure what that means yet fully, but I did get a glimpse of this on my last mission trip to Mexico and California. On my way to California and Mexico traveling on I 8 outside of  a city called El &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Centro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;,CA, both on right and on my left were herds of sheep. Thousands of them on my right and more on my left.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked the Lord what does this mean? Does it mean there is a harvest of souls for us? Does it mean to win the lost? In my spirit I received this word, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"see the sheep without a shepherd, concentrate on the wheat." &lt;/span&gt;I was two weeks old in the Lord when the Word of the Lord came to me through a scripture verse found in Mathew chapter 10 about the lost sheep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mathew 10:5  These twelve Jesus sent out and gave them orders, saying, Do not go among the Gentiles, or into any town of Samaria, Mat 10:6  &lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;But go to the wandering sheep of the house of Israel, hear the sick, raise the dead, cast out devils, freely you have received, freely give."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;It was apparent to me as I drove that all  of the sheep I saw by this road were without a shepherd. I got an understanding of the sheep being the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;wheat harvest&lt;/span&gt; of the Lord that is now separated and being separated from the chaff in God's house in need of their Shepherd King. I also understood that judgment begins in the House of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God was showing me and our team that he has not &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;only begun &lt;/span&gt;this separation but it is now in &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;full working bloom &lt;/span&gt;for us to see, and that we had to now &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"concentrate on the wheat"&lt;/span&gt; that &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 102, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;is separated and being gathered into the barns.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;That is why we could not minister as we have in the past. Beloved, I can tell you this trip was such a turning point like no other trip before.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Baptism of Fire really began to come forth in 2009 to begin this separation, but in 2010 it is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;WHITE HOT FIRE&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;that is  now gathering the grain into the Lord's barn.&lt;/span&gt; This fire in the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;House of God&lt;/span&gt;  is like the fire that came between Pharaoh and the children of Israel at the Red Sea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The flame of fire also manifested itself to Pharaoh and his army separating them away from God's people. Today in the house of the Lord it is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;separating the Holy from the profane, the wheat from the chaff, and the fat sheep from the lean sheep as the word of God said it would.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This fire was prophesied to come in Malachi chapter 3 verse 1, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"The Lord whom you seek shall suddenly come to His temple, and who can endure the day of His coming and who can stand when He appears?" &lt;/span&gt;I am seeing this with my own eyes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This fire is burning in His house, and it is now keeping the lukewarm and cold away from the those that are going to burn for the Lord. To those Christians who are allowing the work of the Lord as fire in them, and in the very young that don't know the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"deep ways of dead religion" &lt;/span&gt;there is a burning FIRE that is now consuming them and changing them from glory to glory in the image of the Lord to be His witness on this earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This fire is separating those in his body that are hard of heart from those who will have tender of heart towards God. The scripture verse the Lord gave me for 2010 is &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;"Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God." Mathew 5:8&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;Is that you beloved reader? There is still time for those whose hard in heart to come into the very flame of fire to change before it is to late. God can burn the hardness out of you, but if you refuse and rebel this fire will act as a shield against you who oppose the work of the Lord in those &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;who will come&lt;/span&gt; as it did to Pharaoh and his armies. It will surely separate the wheat from the tares. Which one will you be?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our team has seen it with our own eyes. We have even lost some team members last year because of this very fire. There is no escaping beloved. Everyone of us will make a choice of what we desire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Baptism of Fire has come now to empower the wise virgins with the extra oil they will need to go out and meet Him at the midnight hour. The foolish will resist this call. They will call the wise to spiritual or too hyper Christian! The foolish will continue to sleep doing business as usual and persecute those who are preparing to be married to our King Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The foolish will stay content with gifts of the spirit, a position or ministry and going to church. They will remain in a place lacking the real presence and power of God in their lives. They are saved and have a deposit of the Holy Spirit to witness their salvation, but they have refused to grow up in Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They are being separated from the overcomers now! They are being separated for eternity from the place God has prepared for them as a bride and overcomer if they don't change.Again they may be saved and get into heaven because they have trusted the Lord to save them, but they will not be part of the marriage supper of the lamb as a Bride.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They will not rule and reign with him forever and ever. They are forfeiting their part now by the choices they are making to serve themselves instead of the Lord. They may enter heaven only as "one who has escaped from the fire" and have nothing to show for their lives. Worse, some of them may even be spewed out of the mouth of God. What will it be for you beloved reader?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watched God fill three 14 year old boys with this fire in our last trip. I said to the Lord, "why are they all 14 except one church where the boy was 19." He said it is their "spiritual bar mitzvah!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I believe at 13 years old a Jewish boy has a ceremony declaring his manhood and the beginning of his sonship after he completed his studies. This Jewish boy would be seen as a man and a son "in training" until 30 years old where he would be "a full grown son." That is what is happening with this Baptism of Fire upon the youth. This Fire of God is a "school master to this" Omega generation" training them for full grown sonship now!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These young sons, or "man/child" types are getting the Baptism of Fire and are being transformed before our eyes!  A Pastor who came to our meetings in California testified about one young man 14 who had his pants sagging when he came in, but as God chose him to come closer into the fire, he came out of that fire ministering that flame he received. She said she saw the tangible Glory of God change him, even his continence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These young ones are being changed in the core of their being and then enabled to minister like they were 50 years in the Lord. This hasn't been confined to this age group alone. I have seen it empower 3, 5, 7, 8 and older as well, even adults up to 8o or more are burning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These young ones know instantly what to do and minister in the Holy Spirit. All I have to do is encourage them or point them and they do the rest until I don't even have to do that within minutes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They instantly know what to speak. They don't talk until the Lord fills their mouths. It is not so much their age as it is the simplicity and tenderness of their heart because they have not been deluded by dead religion so they are open to partake of His Holy Fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I watched an 11 year old girl get so burned with the Fire of God, she said, " I can't take any more." She then proceeded to go in the congregation and hug and prophesy to adults and Pastors. They began to weep and say "Santos", Holy! She then took their hand to bring them to alter where they began to burn with God's presence. As this is happening the Lord says, "concentrate on the wheat!"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why am I writing to you about this. Because there is an urgency in my spirit that many, many Christians are going to miss this hour of preparation. The hours is almost over. I have to write my sequel to the Anointing of the Moment called "The Highway of Holiness." This has to do with the "work of the Flame of God" in those who will receive it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, where are you in your walk with God. Are you burning with His presence? Are you doing the business as usual thing? Are you just going to church or doing your ministry? Are you pressing on to truly know the Lord? Are you making yourself ready to marry him? Are you purifying yourself from all that would contaminate from the world?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you lukewarm or have a form of godliness but deny the power there of? Are you living your life with Jesus as your Lord? Do you know His heartbeat? Do you know His plans for your life and are you doing them? Or is God an afterthought? Are you living your Christian life the way you want to?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are you may find yourself separated as a foolish virgin and not enter the marriage supper of the Lamb. You may find yourself being spewed out of the mouth of God. You  may find yourself with the candlestick of His presence removed from you. You may find God fighting against you with the Word from his mouth. Read Revelation chapters 1-3 and see the Lord standing in His church calling to us to repent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't miss it? Don't be the one the Lord doesn't see when he says, "concentrate on the wheat only." Don't let your Christian life be a tare in God's kingdom and make it in only by escaping the fire. Let God make your life what He intends it to be. You can't do that being religious or rebellious against God's will for your life. You can't do it if you love your place in the church more than you love God Himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is still time, but not much. He that has an ear to hear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/Copy---Trip-To-Mexico_1232---Copy-716088.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/Copy---Trip-To-Mexico_1232---Copy-715592.JPG" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/Trip-To-Mexico_1553-773418.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/Trip-To-Mexico_1553-772909.JPG" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/PH_1215-716663.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/PH_1215-716279.JPG" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-6016184158851028145?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2010/01/concentrate-of-wheat.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

I laugh as I write this on the blog if you would see the size of the building in person. It is more like a stable and a manger in size, but despise not the days of small beginnings!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Flame of Fire Ministries was birthed from the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;IAM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Center of Tucson. That is the ministry God had us begin here in Tucson, Arizona when God called me out from being a full time Pastor of a  local church in Port &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Richey&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, FL to this new role as a missionary and a to raise up a prophetic army of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord told me not to build a church or a ministry, but to establish the Kingdom of God in men's heart. This came about one day when my wife and I were praying while driving through the streets in the city of Tampa. We came to the end of a road where we found &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;McDill&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Air Force Base. We drove to the entrance of the base and since we were non-military personnel we could not go any further.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We turned around our van to go back another direction when the Holy Spirit spoke and said to us, "you have come to the end of the road of Pasturing as you have known. I am changing your direction. He then impressed upon me that we were to start something different called Spiritual Training Bases for His Kingdom to include 24/7 prayer centers to pray for different regions, and a full time teaching and equipping school for all generations. This school would raise up and "end time prophetic intercessors and ministers"  as an army of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2004 Donna, I and our family moved to Tucson Arizona after God opening the scriptures in Hosea 2:14-26 to us. We knew we had to come here to establish our first base of training called the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;IAM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Center of Tucson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;For one year after we moved to Tucson, God did not allow me to do anything. Not one door opened in our community to do this work. Not one Pastor or church was interested in building true love bond covenant relationships. The Pastors had to much on their plate to see why God sent us here to support and lift up their arms in prayer. Many told me it was a nice idea and some even said they would come. Yet for a whole year God did not open one door for us to start.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I spent a whole year 0f 2004-2005 walking in the desert where the Lord began to make the message found in Hosea 2:14-26 my life's experience. Please read the scriptures yourself to understand the meeting. The Lord told me anyone can preach the message but not everyone could understand how  the  mess&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;enger&lt;/span&gt; of  God's word,&lt;/span&gt; and the message itself must be one, even like John the Baptist was the perfect message of repentance, and Jesus Christ Himself the perfect message of salvation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2005,  The Lord had me to begin planning to start for our first International Accelerated Missions Discipleship Training School. We had no money and just our little group of people and no place to meet. So we met in Coco's restuarant with nothing but the manuals to train. We planned as if we had everything. We trained teachers to teach the classes and even put the curriculum together. We made a manual on how to start a school. We advertised set up recruitment times and registration times not even having a place to teach. 2 weeks before school started, God opened up a building for us with the first months rent free.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We had our first &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;IAM&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Discipleship Training School starting in Septemberwith our first mission trip to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Piedras&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Negras&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, Mexico in March 2006. It was a great first mission trip to take our first 4 graduates to learn about missions in Mexico. In that trip I met a Pastor from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Longmont,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Colorado named Elias and Pastor Glen from California. These two precious men of God took our little school and taught us about missions work. We were blessed to know and labor with them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In 2006, Pastor Elias took us on our second trip to &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Muquiz&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Mexico to preach at an Assembly of God Church there, and to minister to the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Peekapoo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Indian Tribe as well. This too was an excellent experience for our second class of 6 students.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was at that meeting, Pastor Elias felt to do a "revival meeting" in the town of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Milliken&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;, Colorado where he got saved. He asked me to bring a team of intercessors up a week early to pray before and during these meetings for the Lord to change the hearts of the community to meet Jesus Christ. We were also to have Pastor prayer meetings from the area every morning and afternoon for these meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the first meeting not one person showed up for prayer, and we didn't know what to do, but the Lord told us just to worship Him and listen. We did that, the next day 5 intercessors from other churches came to join us in prayer. They didn't even know there was a tent meeting going on in Milliken or a call to prayer. The Holy Spirit just told them to come to this building to pray and they found us. The next day there were 20, and by the end of the first week over 75 intercessors from Northern Colorado came to pray for this tent meeting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The tent meeting started out slowly with about 40 people but by the end of the week it was over 200. I was asked to preach on Saturday night. Friday in prayer, we got a breakthrough about the youth in that region being held hostage by the enemy in the church. God showed us that we, God's leaders were keeping them from Him by putingt them in youth groups, Sunday School, Children church, but we never allow them to be with Him in His presence in the services. Our goal was to get them out so the adults could be blessed and hear the word. This broke our hearts to see what we had done. I know I had done that as a Pastor as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is nothing wrong with having those ministries for children, but we were not supposed to replace them knowing the Lords' presence in our services or for them to spend time with Him with us! We repented for this sin for ourselves and the region. We stood in the gap for the pastors and leaders of the Northern Colorador region and promised God we would not do that to the youth anymore.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the last Saturday night of the revival, I preached one of the hardest messages on the spirit of religion that is controlling much of the present church today. It was so strong not a person moved or stirred. I thought for sure that when I gave the alter call every adult would run to the alter.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Before I tell you the rest, let me write this to you. In the morning of this Saturday I got a call from a precious sister in Christ who didn't know about the meetings we were having. She said God told her last night to tell me when I preach tonight to call down the "Fire of God."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Later in that afternoon another sister on the other side of the country &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;received&lt;/span&gt; the exact same word for me and told me I had to "call down the Fire of God" at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;tonight's&lt;/span&gt; meeting and I would know when.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The time came for me to pray that prayer on that Saturday night.  As I preached the message of repentance from dead religion many hearts were convicted and I gave the alter call to come.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader, even though there was a very heavy conviction upon every single person there not one adult came to the alter. After a few minutes of repeating the call to come a miracle happened. All the youth at this meeting which was  about 25 of them or more ran to the alter crying and repenting of their sins and their need for God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The message I preached from the LOrd was to free the adults of the religious walk with God they had that was opposing the true move of God instead of having a real relationship with Him. God was speaking to every adult there personally to repent, but they would not move!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;However, within minutes  the youth ran to the alter in tears and brokenness. They came with true humility to change before the Lord. When they came and wept at the alter I knew it was time to pray,"God send you fire."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Fire of God came upon these youth and they wept, cried and then began to pray for one another and minister in the gifts of the Holy Spirit that they never experienced before. There were words of wisdom, knowledge, prophecy, speaking in tongues and more. In that moment, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Flame of Fire Ministries was born&lt;/span&gt; though I did not know that then.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Host Pastor's grand son was weeping and laughing at the same time and cried, " God is killing me, but He is loving me at the same time, God is real!" From that day, God has had us share that testimony and all God has done whereever he sends us. We have seen that Fire of God presence fall from city to city and nation to nation.Just read the testimony page on our website or look at the pictures on the side of our home page and see for yourself how God is making &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"His ministers a Flame of Fire."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We shared this word in cities starting in Greeley, Colorado in 2007 where 60 youth came to our second conference at the Seventh Day Adventist Church. The fire of God fell even hotter and came upon the youth, and they too ministered like seasoned veterans as they did at the tent meeting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A 14 year old girl preached a  prophetic message to cause all the parents there to repent. 7 and 8 years &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;old girls&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; got the "spirit of tear" (travailing in the Spirit) of real repentance for the adults, and they became instant intercessors. A 16 year old boy, preached and prophesied to all of us and the older generation and many other teens ministered under the power of God. It was one of the deepest move of the Holy Spirit in youth I had ever seen!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We invited a dance and flag group to come and they were so touched that they gave me their brand new fire flag they just purchased and told me I had to wave it in the nations.Then all the youth there got &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;around&lt;/span&gt; me and prayed and prophesied over me for over 45 minutes. They spoke words to me only God spoke to me and I told no one about. They ministered to me prophetically with a flame of fire in accuracy as if some of the biggest prophets in Christianity were ministering to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this move of God, Flame of Fire Ministries was born. This new work grew so fast and sent us to the State of Virginia to do our first National conference. The Spirit of intercession swept these meetings and many were set free and set on fire for God.  God sent me to Albany, New York to minsiter at our IAM Headquarters at a conference called a "burning heart" and again the Fire of God came in our meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are now bringing this Flame of Fire to Tijuana Mexico, San Diego,California, and Loveland Colorado, Tucson Arizona and to the nations. We were blessed to go to Johannesburg South Africa to Better Life Ministries and God's Fire came to this precious praying church. We experienced a deep work of God there with the church and became one with them. The prayer meetings were powerful in the Flame of God and Pastor Chetachuckwu is one of the pillars God is raising up in South Africa for the African Continent&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Flame of Fire has reached churches and leaders through the Flame of Fire website and now has reached over 82 nations and 1800 cities in the world. We continually recieve invitations to come to Pakistan, India, Nepal, Nigeria, Uganda, Kenya, Cameroon, the Philipene Islands and other countries as well. We also have established Ambassadors in Kenya with Harvest Miracle Center Pastor Abraham Omanyo and in Uganda with Pastor John Ssebuliba at Disciples on the move ministries.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God has birthed a Network of Prayer through Flame of Fire ministries with prayer warriors over the world praying for the prayer request we receive every day.  Flame of Fire also has a Network of Ministers committed to serve each member minister as their own flesh and blood to help each other with whatever each one has to give so we can do the will of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have  &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"&gt;United States Ambassadors&lt;/span&gt; in Virginia, Arizona and Pennsylvania, and International Ambassadors in Kenya, Uganda and South Africa. We are also working with Pastors in India, Nepal, Mauritius and Mexico to develop more of this network in 2010. Also in this new year we will be providing membership into the Flame of Fire Ministers Association providing licensing and ordination for all that meet the requirements for ministry in their state and nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look at what is come forth by the hand of God from the baby the IAM Center produced in Milliken Colorado! This baby has now become the mama ministry to those very works. The Flame of Fire Ministries has over sight of the Southern Arizona and Northern Colorado IAM Prayer and Training Center and the Arizona Network of Prayer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader, Despise not the day of small beginnings. We are not a big ministry or work. We don't have large resources or facilities, but we do have a GREAT BIG GOD who can speak to those things that are not, as though they are. All of this is not to see how great "Flame of Fire" is and what we have accomplished. WE have accomplished nothing! If anything has been done it is because of God alone. We can take no credit. We just did what God required of us and that is it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now you understand why God has helped us &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"&gt;open&lt;/span&gt; our very humble new World Headquarters. It is a very tiny place so far perhaps so God can get all the Glory. He doesn't need big things to do big works, just people who will believe He is a big God. I am grateful to God to give us offices now to do His work out of, and a place to pray for our city. Jesus was born in a stable and in a manger, was He not?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also able to rent an adjacent building to house the Southern Arizona Prayer and Training Center and the Arizona Prayer Network for the regional prayer groups to come together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope you rejoice with us at our" little stable and manger"pictures at the top of this blog. No laughing now:)  I thank God for these humble beginnings and for what He has built across the globe through this little work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To God be the Glory and I look forward to see what God is going to do in your life and in His church in 2010!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless each and every one of you!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In His love always,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rev.

Pastor Carl is a firebrand to the church. He has a burning word of the Lord to call the church back to our roots and to our first love Jesus Christ. Go now and read the blog called "Revive your troubled church-Part one and then come back and finish this blog.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Start here after you go to The Trumpet of the Lord blog: Read the article!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;I hope you all had a Merry and Happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year. 2010 will be a year for us to remember. There is much God is going to realign in His Church in 2010. Get your seat belt ready for many things are going to be changing to those that have an ear to hear what the Spirit of God is speaking.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am going to be writing soon about 2010 and what God is speaking to my heart about this year. Last year 2009, the Lord said the "great separation of the sheep" would begin to be seen. I saw that with my own eyes. Many who started out 2009 with us are not with us at the beginning of 2010. I can't even tell you the shaking I have seen as I traveled the nation and what is at balance for all of us in the church in 2010.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I want to encourage all my readers to stay very close to God with a hearing and listening ear to follow the directions of the Lord fully! You must be able to know "His whisper" or we won't be able to stand in what is to come upon our nation and the world.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The church in America must change now, and we at Flame of Fire are going to proclaim it loudly from the roof tops. We can not continue to do business as usual where God's people don't even know He still speaks today. They don't even know that they can have daily fellowship and communion with Him everyday. They don't know that He wants to sup with us daily and share His deepest desires and heart with us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Most of the church in the USA is on auto-pilot doing the religious ritual of just Sunday worship and a little outreach or helping in the church without a deep abiding fellowship in the Holy Spirit with the Lord Himself.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is truly like the days of Noah in the church and worst in the world. We must wake up! We must repent and make the crooked places straight. We must repent for the Kingdom of God is at hand.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We at Flame of Fire are going to blow the Trumpet loudly for all of us to here. These words are to the "them" and us excluded. The word is to "ALL OF US!" We must learn how to follow the cloud of the Holy Spirit by day, and the fire by night. We must not turn from the left or right of His will. It is to dangerous to do what we want without God anymore!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must be children of God who know how to "blow with wind" of God as Jesus taught are "such are those who are born of the Spirit. " The wind blows where you will and you don't know where it comes from or where it goes, but such are those who are born of the Spirit." John chapter 3 declares!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So press on beloved warriors of God! Develop a special time everyday to meet the Lord. Increase it to 2 or 3 times a day just to be with Him. God will give you the time to do it. Remember Jesus said in John 10: "My sheep hear my voice and follow me, and the voice of the stranger they will not follow."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must hear His voice daily, minute by minute. We must fine tune are ability to listen and understand His voice and will so we will be safe in the perfect plan of God. Then we will know His voice above every other voice and not follow the voice of the strangers of this world or the ones of darkness.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless you all in the New Year and please go to the Trumpet of the Lord blog site to read Pastor Carl Jackson's  part one teaching from the Lord.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-7055671505372569895?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2010/01/happy-new-year-2010-new-trumpet-of-lord.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

"  This book was given to me to be an "alarm clock" to the church in which God is giving us a "spiritual hour" to get ready for the "hour that is going to come upon the earth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I encourage you to order a copy it is essential for these last days I believe. My publisher is again able to get them for me, so if you will allow about a month for delivery you can order it on our website resource page. I will also be able to send them out to those who have existing orders shortly, we haven't forgot you!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The Lord is drawing a Bride unto Himself as found in Hosea chapter 2. In the desert wilderness he prepares her to become betrothed to the Lord in steadfastness and in righteousness. He does this by removing the "idols" from her lips. Remember out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. So what is on the brides lips is in her heart and there is some mixture in her. Mixture to things that are equal to or as important to her as the Lord in her life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This can not remain in her to be a Bride without spot or blemish. The book of Hosea is also a book where God requires the Prophet to marry a harlot knowing she will cheat on him, but in the end she will become faithful.  This is a picture of the present view of the Body of Christ. We are filled with sin and idolatry, we just won't admit it. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The book of Revelation chapters 2 and 3 begin and end with an accusation against the church. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;1. Rev. 2:5 You have deserted Me, your first love. You have given up the love you had for me at first. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This rebuke comes with a warning, repent or I will remove the candlestick from your midst. The candlestick represents the "manifest presence" of the Lord in our life or ministry. How serious was that to King David after he committed and murdered? He cried out, "Create in me a clean heart Oh God, and renew a right spirit in me. Take not thy Holy Spirit from me." He saw what happened to King Saul when he fell from God without truly repenting.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I believe the Bible says, Jesus Christ, the same, yesterday, today and forever. The punishment for not truly repenting before God for King Saul was two fold. First, God ripped the Kingdom from him. Second, He removed His presence and Spirit and gave Saul over to an evil Spirit. That could never happen to us we are in the new covenant.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2. Let us read Rev 3:14:  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;And unto the angel of the church of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Laodiceans&lt;/span&gt; write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; Rev 3:15  I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I wish you were cold or hot.Rev 3:16  So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;spew&lt;/span&gt; thee out of my mouth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Wow, that is pretty tough language from God isn't it. "I am saved by grace." I am OK, I am a good person. I pay my tithes and go to church on Sunday. The Lord says, "I know your works! Your works are how you live your life? He says, " I know how you live you are not hot for me, nor are you like an unsaved person cold against me." You are LUKE WARM! You are worse than cold. You say you love me and you say I am your Lord, but your life reflects a life of living in the world as the world does but having a Christian name.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;You are truly not my disciple at all. You just appear to be by name only, so I will spew you out of my mouth. Little harsh Jesus! Where is all that love they preach about every Sunday. Where is all that "make me a better person preaching" we hear every Sunday.  What makes us &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;luke&lt;/span&gt; warm? Idolatry and rebellion in our hearts. We have it church, let's just admit it is there, so we can get to the Lord for Him to Baptize us with Fire to remove it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Pretending it is not there is not the answer. In Hosea chapter2, the Lord tells how Israel is a harlot, yet then in the most beautiful act of love starting in verse 14. He is going to "allure her into the wilderness to speak tenderly to her heart." This isn't the mushy love that the church does in the flesh. "Oh, I so love you brother, I really love you sister, even though you are in sin and darkness, God loves you, even though you are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;luke&lt;/span&gt; warm and have idols in your heart!" "God doesn't mind."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is more to God's love than I love you just as you are that the American Church teaches. Hebrews 12 shows us the nature of what the true love of God is also. Yes His love is like the Prodigal Father waiting for the son to return. Yes, His love is like the woman caught in the act of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;adultery&lt;/span&gt; that ran to Him to be saved. Yes, It is that, but it also more!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The more is what the church in America is not ready for, and it is why our nation suffers to this day. Please read the following verses to understand the fullness of God's love towards us and then you will begin to understand why the Holy Spirit has me writing these teachings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Heb 12:1  For this reason, as we are circled by so great a cloud of witnesses, putting off every weight, and the sin into which we come so readily, let us keep on running in the way which is marked out for us, Heb 12:2  Having our eyes fixed on Jesus, the guide and end of our faith, who went through the pains of the cross, not caring for the shame, because of the joy which was before him, and who has now taken his place at the right hand of God's seat of power. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Heb 12:3  Give thought to him who has undergone so much of the hate of sinners against himself, so that you may not be tired and feeble of purpose. Heb 12:4  Till now you have not given your blood in your fight against sin: Heb 12:5  And you have not kept in mind the word which says to you as to sons, My son, do not make little of the Lord's punishment, and do not give up hope when you are judged by him; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Heb 12:6  &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;For the Lord sends punishment on his loved ones; everyone whom he takes as his son has experience of his rod. Heb 12:7  It is for your training that you undergo these things; God is acting to you as a father does to his sons; for what son does not have punishment from his father? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Heb 12:8  But if you have not that punishment of which we all have our part, then you are not true sons, but children of shame. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Heb 12:9  And again, if the fathers of our flesh gave us punishment and had our respect, how much more will we be under the authority of the Father of spirits, and have life? Heb 12:10  For they truly gave us punishment for a short time, as it seemed good to them; but he does it for our profit, so that we may become holy as he is. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Heb 12:11  At the time all punishment seems to be pain and not joy: but after, those who have been trained by it get from it the peace-giving fruit of righteousness. Heb 12:12  For this cause let the hands which are hanging down be lifted up, and let the feeble knees be made strong, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Heb 12:13  And make straight roads for your feet, so that the feeble may not be turned out of the way, but may be made strong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I don't understand why this is such an ugly word to the body of Christ? Why is rebuke, correction and chastisement so despised in the American Church?  The Lord chastens those he loves. He tells us in Rev 3:19  As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. The AMP version writes, "those I tenderly love, I rebuke and correct and show them their faults." Beloved, Reader is that such a bad thing? Why is this such a threatening message to the church in America?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I can only answer that by what the word of God says in John chapter 3: &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;And this is the test by which men are judged: the light has come into the world and men have more love for the dark than for the light, because their acts are evil. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;Joh&lt;/span&gt; 3:20  The light is hated by everyone whose acts are evil and he does not come to the light for fear that his acts will be seen. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;Joh&lt;/span&gt; 3:21  But he whose life is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his acts have been done by the help of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Can there be another answer?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord is trying to work in our lives to become a Bride holy, separated to the Lord Himself. He has sent His Holy Spirit to burn in us like fire to remove every trace of idolatry and rebellion in our heart. He alone can do that work and finished that work at the cross.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hosea chapter 2 gives us a prophetic picture of what the Lord desires to do in our hearts inwardly today. We must listen and obey the Lord now while there is time. We must become like the 5 wise virgins who had the extra oil to go out and meat the Bridegroom. Let's read some this chapter to see the desires of the Lord, and what we must do to be separated unto the Lord in this last hour of preparation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Hos 2:14  Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her. Hos 2:15  And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Achor&lt;/span&gt; for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(51, 51, 255);font-family:arial;" &gt;Hos 2:16  And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, that thou shalt call me &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Ishi&lt;/span&gt;; (my husband) and shalt call me no more &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Baali&lt;/span&gt; (my idols). Hos 2:17  For I will take away the names of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Baalim&lt;/span&gt; (idolatry) out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;Hos 2:18  And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make them to lie down safely. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Hos 2:19  And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;loving kindness&lt;/span&gt;, and in mercies. Hos 2:20  I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This is the "present work of the Holy Spirit" but is the church in America even aware of what God wants to do? Do you see His desire to remove the name of "idolatry" from His bride's lips. He desires to be Her only love. Wouldn't you want that if you were marrying someone? You would want to remove all the past dates, people your spouse went out with before you from his/her memory by your greater love for him/her.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The Lord desires the same thing. He desires us to be HOT for Him and not checking out all the world has to offer and calling that "isn't he or she hot" like the teens say today about the opposite sex.

Let us continue to read this chapter:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Ti 3:1  This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2Ti 3:2  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;unthankful&lt;/span&gt;, unholy, 2Ti 3:3  Without natural affection, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;truce breakers&lt;/span&gt;, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;despisers&lt;/span&gt; of those that are good, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Ti 3:4   2Ti 3:5  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;Traitors, heady, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;highminded&lt;/span&gt;, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Ti&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;3:6  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;For of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, 2Ti 3:7  Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Will this happen in the Body of Christ? Could this really be possible? Let us look at Mathew chapter 24 to see what Jesus says:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:12  And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:13  But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:arial;font-size:100%;"  &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;I want you to notice something about these two verses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Because sin will abound, the love of many shall wax cold. The amplified version translates it this way, because of multiplied lawlessness, the love of the GREAT BODY shall grow cold.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. There is a call to overcome: he that endures unto the end, not the middle, the same shall be saved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This is the choice God is allowing to come into His house. Remember, Jesus taught us that we should allow the wheat and tares to grow together until the time of the harvest. At harvest time, the true nature of a tare can be discerned from true wheat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;You can not tell the difference between a tare and wheat until it is full grown. That is why they must be left to grow together. Another words Jesus allows them both in the house until their "true fruit" is manifested. The tare will produce a tares' fruit and will be removed. The wheat will produce its fruit and will be gathered. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;For many years, many have prayed a sinner's prayer, but their lives have been the opposite of what it means to be a new creation. Many have decided to live in the world and be a friend of it, yet have a "form of godliness." How is the Lord going to separate the wheat from the tares?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;He is doing it right now! I can't even tell you the persecution that is coming to those who desire to be Holy as He is Holy. There is a spirit in the church that says, " I can do whatever I want "because his mercies are new every morning."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;That logic produces an it is "OK" to sin mentality Jesus will forgive me. In  Northern Colorado where I have ministered for almost four years, many in the church in that region believe that they don't even sin. The flesh sins and that is not them. The Holy Spirit in them is pure and can't sin, so they aren't sinning, their flesh is. I am not making this up. Again in the same state, it is approved in one church for a married men to have dinner with another man's wife. Why, because we are Brothers and Sisters in Christ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Through Television, TV, and Internet Sin is glorified and accepted in the world and that spirit is now taking deep root in many Christians &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;lives&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;. It is a lie from the pit of hell that will damn so many people because they are trusting in a lie and not the truth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Do we sin? Yes we do. I still fall short no doubt! But the question is what do we do with that sin. Do we excuse it? Do we sweep it under the rug? Do we not even want to know what caused us to do it? Nope! God loves you just like you are. He will meet you right where you are at? Perhaps if you are unsaved, but not the saved.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I wonder if Christians today in our nation read their Bible anymore? What does the New Testament say about us and sin. 2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; Cor. Chapter 6:14-17. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;This is a commandment from God! Did you hear me? This is what is required of us as Christians!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Co 6:14  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;and what communion hath light with darkness? 2Co 6:15  And what agreement hath Christ with &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;Belial&lt;/span&gt;? or what part hath he that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;believeth&lt;/span&gt; with an infidel? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Co 6:16 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt; And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;2Co 6:17  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, 2Co 6:18  And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;How about another New Testament command to live Holy before the Lord: James chapter 4!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:1  Whence come wars and whence come &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;fightings&lt;/span&gt; among you? come they not hence, even of your pleasures that war in your members?&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:2  Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and covet, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war; ye have not, because ye ask not. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:3  Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may spend it in your pleasures. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:4  Ye adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Whosoever therefore would be a friend of the world &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;maketh&lt;/span&gt; himself an enemy of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Whosoever would be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. Christians today agree with unmarried people living together as husband and wife. Christians today believe you can divorce your  husband and wife for any reason and it is OK? Christian Teens and young people have no problem having &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;pre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;marital sex. God will forgive them and they are going to get married anyway? Really!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;In the 1950's if a young person got pregnant or had &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;pre&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;marital sex they were not seen as heroes like they are today. God love you. His mercy is new every morning would never be told to a brother and sister that have fallen into sin from a Christian!They would have wept with them, prayed with them to repent and turn to God. Why is sin glorified in the church? Why is it so accepted?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Because we all do it! So if we have one area in our own lives where we fail we can't speak or preach against sin or we will be called hypocrites. The standard the world has produced for the church is unless you have no sin, you can identify it or speak against it. "Those of you without sin, cast the first stone." What a lie! This lie had to be confronted in Corinth when a man was having sex with a relative. Paul said this to the church in Corinth: Would you cancel your ministry subscription to the Apostle Paul who wrote these words:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;1Co 5:1  It is reported commonly that there is &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;fornication&lt;/span&gt; among you, and &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;such fornication&lt;/span&gt; as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;(Please read what he says to the leaders and the people in the Corinthian church!)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;1Co 5:2  And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;(What a mean Pastor Paul? How dare him judge this man! Doesn't he know those of you without sin can only cast the first stone? Does he not know that if you judge, you will surely be judged? )&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;1Co 5:3  For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;have judged already!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;(W&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 102);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;hat this false prophet Paul has a lot of nerve! We know this person, he is a good person, he tried hard.  How dare him judge this man. This man cried over his sin. He was saddened he did it. This man tried to fix things.) Read on:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 1Co 5:4  In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 1Co 5:5  &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OOPS! I must of missed something here? Deliver such an one unto Satan! WOW, that is heavy! Good thing that was just for the day of Paul! Could you imagine a Pastor or church having to do what Paul is doing here? Oh my God? Could you think of all the tithes they would lose? Could you imagine all the friends we would lose? I am speaking as a fool as I write this you understand&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;1Co 5:6  &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Your glorying is not good.&lt;/span&gt; Know ye not that a &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;little leaven&lt;/span&gt; leaveneth the whole lump? 1Co 5:7  Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OOPS Again! Fool me once, fool me twice! He writes to them "your glorying is not good." What does that mean. They accepted this sin in their midst as OK. They may not have agreed with the man. They may even know it was an abomination to God, but they &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;CHOSE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT IT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That is the spirit that grips most of the churches and Christians in America.  In the church today in America to do something about it or confront this man "the modern church" calls a sin, but to allow this sin to remain in their midst is acceptable to God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; These leaders in Corinth were not sinless. &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;They weren't perfect but&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;they were required by God to judge this situation under the power of the Holy Spirit. &lt;/span&gt;This judgment required the removal of this man from their midst and given over to Satan until he repented.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Do you know the wonderful part of this story? They put the man out of the fellowship. The man repented and got His life right with God and they restored him! WOW, what a novel concept, aye!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As far as I know, no where in the Bible did it say John the Baptist never sinned, only Jesus led the sinless life. Yet, this sinner John the Baptist preached repent the Kingdom of God is at hand.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;How could He? He could because He hated it in him and in the lives of God's people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He came out and separated himself from the things of the world and the "ways of the world." This is the call that the Holy Spirit is making in His House. Come out from among them and separate yourself. This will be the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;identifying&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; mark that will separate the wheat from the tares.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Jesus teaches us there will be two in the field, one will be taken, the other left behind. He said, there will be two grinding at the mill, one will be taken, the other left behind.  Then He warns us with this word.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:36  But of that day and hour &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_18"&gt;knoweth&lt;/span&gt; no one, not even the angels of heaven, neither the Son, but the Father only. Mat 24:37  And as were the days of Noah, so shall be the coming of the Son of man. Mat 24:38  For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, Mat 24:39  and they knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall be the coming of the Son of man. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Jesus says that the days that proceed His coming will be like the days of Noah! Interesting he mentions this, "eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the Ark!" And they knew not until the flood came and took them all away.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;We are at the prophetic calender time of John the Baptist in the church of Jesus Christ. The wheat and the tares are about to be separated in the House of God. How will the Lord do it. Malachi 3 tells us, "Who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He shall come like a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_19"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;refiners&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; fire and fuller soap to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_20"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;thoroughly&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; clean the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_21"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Levites&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;John the Baptist describes it this way:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 3:7  But when he saw many of the Pharisees and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_22"&gt;Sadducees&lt;/span&gt; coming to his baptism, he said unto them, Ye offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 3:8  Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance: Mat 3:9  and think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 3:10  And even now the axe &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_23"&gt;lieth&lt;/span&gt; at the root of the trees: every tree therefore that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_24"&gt;bringeth&lt;/span&gt; not forth good fruit is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_25"&gt;hewn&lt;/span&gt; down, and cast into the fire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 3:11  I indeed baptize you in water unto repentance: but he that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_26"&gt;cometh&lt;/span&gt; after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 3:12  whose fan is in his hand, and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor; and he will gather his wheat into the garner, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This scripture is being fulfilled in your ears at this time in history. The Lord is thoroughly cleansing His threshing floor? A cry of Who is on the Lord's side is being heard in the House of the Lord. Remember in the last days, Many will have&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;a form of godliness but deny the power there of.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;They will pretend to love the Lord or even convinced they love the Lord but they have no power, no power to crucify that sin nature in them and deny themselves and pick up the cross. No there choice will be to be "a lover of self, more than a lover of God."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;When we ignore God's will, His thoughts or His commands to please and fill ourselves and call it OK to do, do we really belong to the Lord? If we can't believe that we have sinned or that our sin is not a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_27"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;travesty&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; to God who had to die for them, do we really belong to God?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;This heart is going to be seen more and more "Christians" in this next year. Sin is going to be even more accepted than now and they will curse or become angry with anyone who declares this &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_28"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;message&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; of repentance? There will be hatred coming against those who bring it to light? There will be false accusations of "those of you without sin, cast the first stone." You are not perfect, you sin, so you can't judge me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;That statement is of the truth, I can judge no one, but God will judge sin! He will judge sinners! And "begins where???? In the House of the Lord! God will judge the one who has the speck and the one who has the plank in their eye. God is the Righteous Judge and He will judge us. That is why we are to "judge our own lives" now!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;The Book of James tells us to do this:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_29"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:8  Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_30"&gt;doubleminded&lt;/span&gt;. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_31"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:9  Be afflicted, and mourn, and weep: let your laughter be turned to mourning, and your joy to heaviness. &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_32"&gt;Jas&lt;/span&gt; 4:10  Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Was this not an admonition from the Lord? Is not James "judging" the hearts of the people he is writing to and in the next few sentences he tells us not to judge lest we are judged. Is this a contradiction?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;James calls them double minded, and to purify their hearts. That is exactly what God is looking for in us, and it is what is going to separate the sheep from the goats, and the wheat from the chaff. He writes: Be afflicted, and mourn and weep.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;I warn those in Colorado and Arizona where we &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_33"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;minister&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt; to repent of this foolishness and arrogant thinking. God is not blessing sin! God will not be mocked. What should our heart look like if we are truly seeking God to purify our hearts? James tells us: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;be Afflicted, mourning and weeping, let your laughter be turned to morning and your joy to heaviness! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Not oh joyful, joyful! God will forgive you Brother? God knows your heart? God understands your sin, and is alright with it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Let me forewarn those who read this, it is better to throw a mill stone around your neck than lead one of these little one astray. If you agree with another person's sin and treat it as if it &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_34"  style="font-family:arial;"&gt;OK&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;, you may find yourself facing the same judgment of God. This is not a laughing matter. You may find yourself with their blood on your hands. You may find your self in alignment with the Spirit of Anti-Christ, "concerned with the things of men and not the things of God."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;Joel chapter 2 shows us the true heart or repentance needed in this hour of separation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;Joe 2:11  And the Lord is thundering&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;(this is what I have been trying to warn you about in the latest prophetic alert)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;before his forces; for very great is his army; for he is strong who gives effect to his word: for the day of the Lord is great and greatly to be feared, and who has strength against it? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-family:arial;" &gt;Joe 2:12  But even now, says the Lord,&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; come back to me with all your heart, fasting and with weeping and with sorrow: &lt;/span&gt;Joe 2:13  Let your hearts be broken, and not your clothing, and come back to the Lord your God: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;This is the way of true and lasting repentance. It is time for the church of the Lord Jesus Christ to repent and come out from among them and touch not the unclean thing. It is time to wash our hand, our hearts, our minds before God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the word "the tares do not want to hear!" This is the words, "the goats will hate and persecute everyone that preaches it." They will preach that false Gospel under the Jezebel Spirit that seduces the church into "eating foods that are &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_35"&gt;sacrificed&lt;/span&gt; to idols and to commit sexual immorality." What does the Bible say in Revelation chapters 2 and 3: REPENT!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't tolerate the false prophetic voice of Jezebel calling herself a prophetess: Here is her message. "Sin is not that bad. You are under the blood. God understands your trying. God knows you really can't change&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_36"&gt; until you&lt;/span&gt; die." You don't have to live Holy! You can enjoy the things of the world and fellowship with it? The repentance stuff, that is deception. Those people who preach it are "holier than thou." They have sin in their own lives how can they tell us what to do."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Be careful dear reader. Sin is sin! Jesus Christ had to suffer the worse type of death in the history of mankind to defeat it. It cost Him everything to break it's power over it. Should we remain in sin? Should it be OK to keep sinning everyday like business as usual? Why is there no power in our lives like at Pentecost? Why is there no Glory filling our shadows? SIN!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In closing this first part, I once again want to declare that 2010 will begin the fullness of the great falling away that was predicted in the church.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;2Th 2:1  Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, 2Th 2:2  That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;2Th 2:3  Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2Th 2:4  Who &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_37"&gt;opposeth&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_38"&gt;exalteth&lt;/span&gt; himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_39"&gt;sitteth&lt;/span&gt; in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Did you read it! Let no man &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_40"&gt;deceive&lt;/span&gt; you.... for that day shall not come, EXCEPT THERE COME A FALLING AWAY FIRST, AND THEN... the man of sin be revealed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This event, the "great falling away first" has begun in the House of God. It has begun by a divine separation of the sheep from the goats and the wheat from the tares. It has begun because the winnowing fan of the Lord Himself is in the threshing floor to sift that is wheat from that which is a tare.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some of you reading this have become arrogant in your heart and deceived by the spirit of this age. Repent while you still have time. The hours is almost over! Some of you would rather glorify in the sin of others than the Holiness of God and His glory! You will bring God's judgment upon you for this sin if you don't repent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader, we have little time to weep, mourn and be afflicted over our sin until the Fire of God comes to remove it from our heart. Paul told us Jesus would come for a Glorious Church without spot or blemish? How is he going to get them out? Kill us and take us to heaven and give us a bath? No, He is doing it now. The wise virgins have heard His call. They are buying the extra oil in preparation to hear the sound at midnight, Behold the Bridegroom, go out and meet Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Will you be one of them? Will you be wheat or a tare? Do you even want to really know the answer? I leave you with the following warning direct from the lips of our Master:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:40  Then shall two men be in the field; one is taken, and one is left: Mat 24:41  two women shall be grinding at the mill; one is taken, and one is left. Mat 24:42  Watch therefore: for ye know not on what day your Lord cometh. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:43  But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken through. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:44  Therefore be ye also ready; for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man cometh. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:45  Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath set over his household, to give them their food in due season? Mat 24:46  Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:47  Verily I say unto you, that he will set him over all that he hath. Mat 24:48  But if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord tarrieth;Mat 24:49  and shall begin to beat his fellow-servants, and shall eat and drink with the drunken; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;font-family:arial;" &gt;Mat 24:50  the lord of that servant shall come in a day when he expecteth not, and in an hour when he knoweth not, Mat 24:51  and shall cut him asunder, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-798215852396918139?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/11/divine-separation-is-here-part-one.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

The end of 2009!</title><description>Dear Beloved Readers,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has been a time since I have written to you on this blog site. One reason is that is has been a very busy season in our lives, and the other is that I have been trying to listen closely to what the Lord is saying.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am very afraid most of the "church" is not listening to what God is truly saying. Many are paying attention to the condition of what America looks like (the them) but not paying attention to the true state of the Church of Jesus in America. (the us)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Everyday we go on as business as usual. Our goal: change the politics of the land, come up with new ways of reaching the lost. We are having more meetings, more conferences, but the condition of the church is not getting better.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How can I say that? Just ask some simple questions? How many Born Again believers know the voice of God and hear it each day? How many know what their calling is and have given up their entire life for Christ? How many are living the example of what it means to truly be like Christ? Where is the evidence of God's power, anointing and glory in our own lives or in our "weekly church meetings?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What have we built in the American Church? A place where "I am OK, you are OK attitude while we are filled with every type of sin imaginable. Yet, no one is blowing the trumpet of repentance, or at least very few are.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord warned us what the days would like in the church. Let us read 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt; Timothy chapter 3  and see what the Lord says about our days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;2Ti 3:1  But know this, that in the last days grievous times shall come. 2Ti 3:2 &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt; For men shall be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, haughty, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;railers&lt;/span&gt;, disobedient to parents, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;unthankful&lt;/span&gt;, unholy, 2Ti 3:3  without natural affection, implacable, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, no lovers of good, 2Ti 3:4  traitors, headstrong, puffed up, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God; 2Ti &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;3:5  holding a form of godliness, but having denied the power thereof: from these also turn away. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;2Ti 3:6  For of these are they that creep into houses, and take captive silly women laden with sins, led away by divers lusts, 2Ti 3:7  ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. &lt;/span&gt;2Ti 3:8  And even as &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Jannes&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Jambres&lt;/span&gt; withstood Moses, so do these also withstand the truth. Men corrupted in mind, reprobate concerning the faith. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;2Ti 3:9  But they shall proceed no further. For their folly shall be evident unto all men, as theirs also came to be. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;This is happening before our very eyes&lt;/span&gt;! God has done a separation this year in His own house. Does anyone see what is happening? I encourage you to go to the Prophetic Alert link on this website and read the Word God gave me for 2009, the separation of the sheep.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I guess the test of a prophetic word is this, did it come to pass? I can tell you 100% that this word has come to pass and is still coming to pass. Those who were once secure in the Lord have fallen away by doctrines of devils.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In one particular State, in some churches it is OK for a married man to go out to dinner with another man's wife. It is OK for leadership to agree for a woman to divorce her husband to marry another man many years younger than her just because! It is OK to bring a "brick" from a building in which an Evangelist with a healing gift to a ministry in a picnic basket, painted gold and surrounded by a red cloth, being told that healing will come to this ministry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have watched people first hand taste the deep things of God this year and know God spoke to them and healed them later turn against the very message and messenger they received. Every day the hearts of those who truly belong to God are being proven. I have seen brothers and sisters in Christ turn away from God's will just to get what they wanted instead of God's will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In one church, God spoke so clearly and accurately that the Pastor told me, he has not seen a move of God like this in all his 30 years of ministry. God spoke and uncovered the sin and intentions of the hearts in many of the people in great love. He gave them a chance to put down their positions and turn to back to Jesus their first love, yet many after were filled with anger because God would do such a thing. They would not even believe that God would dare ask them for their positions to lay down.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems many have not read the bible very well. Abraham had to lay down Isaac on the alter to make sure God was always first in Abraham's heart.  God would never do that to us leaders in the church? We are truly in perilous times. A little 3 year old boy, a young prophet of God, is being awakened in the night to the sound of the "trumpet blowing." He cries, Mommy, the trumpet is blowing loudly in my ears."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Beloved Readers, a three year old can hear the sound of God's trumpet of preparation and separation, but the church and many of it's leaders can not? Why is that? 2010 is going to be a year that many believers never wanted to see come upon the church. I am going to write extensively about it soon. But we are about to see the word in Mathew 24 come to pass.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please dear family of God, this is the most serious times of our lives. The lines of separation have been drawn. Will you be found on God's side, or will you be deceived to think you are on His side when you are not? Take the test of Rev chapters 1 through 3. Are you doing much work for God but lost Him as your first love? Are you tolerating the prophetess Jezebel seducing you to eat the food of this world and have intercourse with it? Do you have a reputation of being alive, but are dead? Are you seated where Satan is seated? Are you saying you are rich and in need of nothing, but really are poor, blind, pitiable and naked?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It breaks my heart to see where so many of the family of God are turning to? They would rather have a ministry than God! They would rather have a reputation in front of men than  being known as belonging to God. They would rather please man than please God. They would rather be a friend of the world and an enemy of God, yet proclaim Him as Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are in deep deep trouble in this nation, but we won't admit it. The prophets of this age are prophesying  peace, prosperity, and Glory, when God is calling us to repent and make the crooked places straight.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not going to shut my mouth!! All hell has tried to stop me and many others from speaking this message of repentance. The Spirit of Jezebel has tried to oppose the true word of God, but God is rising up the Jehu's and Elisha's for our day and hour to cut off her head and all those who are AHAB'S with her.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malachi Chapter 3:1-3 is here. The Lord whom you seek has suddenly come to His temple! Who can stand when He appears?  Who can endure the day of His coming?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Malachi Chapter 4 speaks a sure word to us in the world and in the nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mal 4:1  For, behold, the day &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;cometh&lt;/span&gt;, it &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;burneth&lt;/span&gt; as a furnace; and all the proud, and all that work wickedness, shall be stubble; and the day that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;cometh&lt;/span&gt; shall burn them up, saith Jehovah of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Mal 4:2  But unto you that fear my name shall the sun of righteousness arise with healing in its wings; and ye shall go forth, and gambol as calves of the stall. Mal 4:3  And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I make, saith Jehovah of hosts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mal 4:4  Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Horeb&lt;/span&gt; for all Israel, even statutes and ordinances. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Mal 4:5  Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of Jehovah come. Mal 4:6  And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers; lest I come and smite the earth with a curse. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2010 will be the year of the greatest falling away the church has ever seen. It won't be evident to the natural eye for many, but a divine choice will be made in each believer's heart. Who is on the Lord's side is the question each believer will have to answer. Many will follow the way of 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt; Timothy Chapter 3. Many will go the way found in Mathew 24.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why? Because of multiplied lawlessness of sin! When will we allow the Lord to "search us and see if there be any wicked way in us?" Why is that such a "hated" word? Why does a national preacher tell a TV commentator "he does not have to preach against sin, just messages that encourage people?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;It is the SIN issue the church in America does not want to deal with!&lt;/span&gt;  Many in the church and in leadership believe, we are under the blood, I can do whatever I want. Jesus loves me just the way I am.  I don't have to live a Godly life. I am not purchased with a price! I prayed a "sinners prayer" and I can be in love with the world, even though James warns, "to be a friend of the world is to take a stand as an enemy of God."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The love of money will cause many to turn away from God. They will say, God is not asking me for my life? I can make money my first priority and take care of my needs first! They will be just like the rich young ruler and walk away sorrowful. Many in the Body of Christ are disregarding the warning found in Luke 14.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In this chapter an invitation to the invited ones came from the Master of the house, but one by one they began to make excuses.&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt; "I have a house. I have a job, I have a family."&lt;/span&gt;  Aren't these the very issues of "life in the world?"  I wonder if anyone today in the Body of Christ has bothered to read, that the Master of the House was angry?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Does anyone realize He sends His servants into the highways and byways to bring in the lame, halt and the blind for His house to be full? Does anyone realize He swears in His wrath that those invited &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;SHALL NEVER TASTE OF HIS SUPPER?&lt;/span&gt; Does anyone see He separates those who won't answer His call to find those who will? Am I making these things up as some want to believe when it is written in the Bible?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I close this blog, I want you to read the warning found in Mathew 24. Let us not let this day come upon us unawares. Let us blow the trumpet in Zion and sound an alarm on God's Holy mountain.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 24:4  And Jesus said to them in answer, Take care that you are not tricked. Mat 24:5  For people will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and a number will be turned from the true way through them. Mat 24:6  And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 24:7  For nation will be moved against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and men will be without food, and the earth will be shaking in different places; Mat 24:8  But all these things are the first of the troubles. Mat 24:9  Then they will be cruel to you, and will put you to death: and you will be hated by all nations because of my name.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Mat 24:10  And numbers of people will be turned from the right way, and will give one another up and have hate for one another. Mat 24:11  And a number of false prophets will come, causing error. Mat 24:12  And because wrongdoing will be increased, the love of most people will become cold. Mat 24:13  But he who goes through to the end will get salvation.  &lt;/span&gt;(&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;BBE&lt;/span&gt; version)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 24:12  And because &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;iniquity&lt;/span&gt; shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. &lt;/span&gt;(&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;KJV&lt;/span&gt;)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader when will we understand that this day coming upon us &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;burns&lt;/span&gt; as an oven? Will we truly hear the sound of God's trumpet calling us to repent in the church in America?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Mat 3:1  In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, Mat 3:2  And saying,&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.&lt;/span&gt; Mat 3:3  For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Esaias&lt;/span&gt;, saying, &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 3:7  But when he saw many of the Pharisees and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;Sadducees&lt;/span&gt; come to his baptism, he said unto them, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 3:8  Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: Mat 3:9  And think not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 3:10  And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;bringeth&lt;/span&gt; not forth good fruit is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;hewn&lt;/span&gt; down, and cast into the fire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 3:11  I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_16"&gt;cometh&lt;/span&gt; after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Mat 3:12  Whose fan is in his hand, and he will &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_17"&gt;throughly&lt;/span&gt; purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;He that has an ear let him hear what the Spirit of God says to the churches!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Who is on the Lords' side?&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;When will we wake up Church in America and see our true spiritual condition? When will we understand to be the Bride of Jesus we have to "make ourselves ready" as found in Rev. 19. Jesus is coming for a Glorious Church without spot, blemish or wrinkle. Yet we want to continue in our sins as if they are OK with God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What has bewitched us to believe this in our American Church? Go ahead, have your ministry if that is what you really want! Keep working hard for God, but I leave you with this  warning from the word of God found in Mathew Chapter 7,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;Mat 7:21  Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Mat 7:22  Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? Mat 7:23  And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Mat 7:24  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: Mat 7:25  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 7:26  And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: Mat 7:27  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span&gt;God forbid that anyone of us would ever hear these words!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Please read The Prophetic alert for January 2009 in the archives!

Of course we also&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt; pray for our police and fire fighters and first responders families that their loved ones lost their lives that day so tragically.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't know about you, but seeing these events again on Fox News this morning re-awakened in me the call for this nation to truly change our ways. We are &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;not the great evil empire&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;many liberals and those who hate the United States suggest. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;There is no other nation on the planet who has given more to help the people in the world than our nation. We have been a kind and generous nation to the peoples of the world.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wish the countries that we have sent help, aid, and support to would remember not just our faults, but also the goodness of the American people. They may not like some of our politicians or even our policies sometimes, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;but they must not forget that God has blessed this nation to be a light in the midst of darkness and help to those who are helpless.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This brings me to my topic this morning to discuss with you. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Have we in America forgotten what happened on 9/11/2001? &lt;/span&gt;I for one will never forget. I was up early that day in Sam's club getting some supplies for the ministry. I happened to walk by the TV department to see a few people gathering around the TV. I stood there for many minutes when I saw the horror of the 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; jet fly into the World Trade Center.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When I saw that, I ran home to call my wife to tell her, and I then called my mom and sister and all I knew to make sure they were OK. I didn't know what else was going to happen. Were we safe in our home and schools in Florida? I called the schools to see what they were going to do with the children. The school system decided to let the children out at noon. You better believe I was at their schools ready to pick them up and keep them safe at home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We all wept at the loss of life and the potential loss of life as the buildings collapsed before our eyes. We were in shock, not just for a day, but for weeks and months, our eyes glued to the TV set. I never kept the TV on at night, but since that day I keep the TV on every night. I can't sleep with out it on now. I wanted to keep alert, be sober, and vigilant to protect and keep safe my family.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Who is to blame for the 9/11 attack? It depends what side of the political spectrum you listen to or whatever religious belief you may have. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;For me 9/11 was a warning to our nation, to the church in America that our covering from the Lord was being lifted because of the sin that is in our midst.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would be easy to say it is the secular humanist, atheist, or even Liberals in our nation to be the cause of our decline. It would be easy to accuse the abortionist and the Liberal woman's movement and Planned Parenthood. It would be easy to blame our politicians? Do they have a blame for our present condition in our nation? I will let you decide that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear reader, when we look a little closer though &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;we may have pointed a finger outwardly&lt;/span&gt; at others and say "they are the cause" of 9/11. But what about us? Can we see we have 4 more fingers pointing back at us?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Let me make this clear, the people who flew those jets and those who planned it are the "legally responsible" ones for this tragedy, NO ONE ELSE! Our political policies in other nations are not the cause. George Bush or Bill Clinton, or Republicans or Democrats or even the need for oil is the cause.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;The actions of these people who did this attack speak for themselves. No matter what their grievance against our nation, killing innocent men, woman and children speaks loudly about their character and nature as people. They legitimize killing innocent people for a political end. There is no justification for any such action as human beings or in any other kind of religion that calls God as their God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Dialogue, discussion and argument, forgiveness and love could have served their causes much better than killing. &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;People kill because it represents power to them, and that is the reason basic and simple.&lt;/span&gt;We must cut through the rhetoric and see the Bible says, "Thou shall not kill." That is a basic tenant of God!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am not going to debate war, killing or any such thing in this blog, but I want to ask you a question on this day of memorial. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Did the church in the USA miss our wake up call? Did we miss our moment to truly repent of the sin in our lives, our families or our churches?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To answer that question we need to look at the fruit in the church since that time? Dear Reader, are you doing anything differently in your walk with God since 9/11? Did you and your family repent of the sin in your life or the lukewarmness that may be in your hearts? Did the Holy Spirit show you that perhaps we have a dead form of religion instead of a true deep abiding relationship with God?  Has your church changed or done anything differently now than you did 8 years ago? Did the whole body of believers in your church come together in repentance of our sins like Daniel did for the nation of Israel?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you or your church broken over the condition of the church in America? Are you broken that we have deserted our first love? How about that we have put the second commandment above the first and we have worshiped the created thing (our church) above our Creator? Better yet, what about our sin of Babel in the church filled with competition and strife where we have said, " I will make a name for myself or ministry or a tower that will reach into heaven?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, Do you pray more now than you did 8 years ago? Is your church meeting daily for prayer? Is there anyone weeping between the porch and the alter as we are commanded in Joel chapter 2 to do,  and rend our hearts and not our garments? Are we Pastor's and Leaders doing exactly the same thing today as we did 8 years ago?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are you services being held in the same way you did then? Are you still getting people home in time for dinner? Are your services still 5- 7 songs,  10 minutes of announcements, 20-30 minutes of preaching, 10 minutes of prayer and out the door we go? Are you still setting the length of time and days of your services? Are you still not allowing the Holy Spirit to have full access to your meetings in worship, prayer and ministry?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Are the people in your church more in love with Jesus than they were 8 years ago? How about you, Pastor? Have you grown closer in your walk with God over these last 8 years? Are you preparing your people to watch, be sober and vigilant? Are you teaching them not for the day of the Lord to  come upon them unawares or as a thief in the night?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Can the people God has placed under your care hear the Lord's voice for themselves and follow Him daily? Have they developed a deep sensitivity to the Holy Spirit? Have they learned to wait upon Him for His instructions and directions for their lives? Are they becoming more mature and now teachers  as the Apostle admonishes the church that they should be? Have they grown past the elementary doctrines of faith found in Hebrews 6? Are your people ready to lay down their whole life for Christ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Dear reader, How many times did you answer yes to these questions? If the answer to these questions had more no than yes, we are still in serious trouble as a church in America. &lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;If this is true, than we have missed our wake up call to truly repent of the sin in our life, the church and this nation up to this day.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why is not 2 Chronicles 7:14 bringing our national &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;CHRISTIAN&lt;/span&gt; leadership together to repent until we are changed as a Body of Christ and a nation. We talk about it and even preach about it, but we don't do it.  Our national church leadership is pointing us to blessings, signs and wonders,  Christian movies, politics and more. &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;What they are not doing is bringing the church of Jesus Christ in the USA to it's knees and truly repent of our double mindedness, and our having a love affair with the world as found in the book of James.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the last 8 years,&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; repentance is still a dirty word &lt;/span&gt;for most of the church today. We have said as the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Laodecian&lt;/span&gt; church has said, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"we are rich and in need of nothing?" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Does anyone else in the Body of Christ see  that we as God's people are truly poor, blind, pitiable and naked as Jesus said?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;If the tragedy of 9/11 did not wake up the church to repent with a lasting call to change, what will it take for us to have this lasting change? Do we have to experience a worse national tragedy than this?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, I have been writing and warning that the North Winds of Adversity are now beginning to sweep over our nation. These winds reflect situations and circumstances that God will allow to cause us to see our true state before Him to give us a chance to repent and change. &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;We don't need to experience another 9/11 if we will "today, hear His voice, and not harden our hearts!"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I happen to listen to Glen Beck's radio show yesterday, he a professing Mormon spoke on the radio about him and his co-workers fasting and praying last Saturday for our nation? He is a Mormon? He is fasting and praying, what about us? What are we doing American Church? What are we seeing today 8 years later after this terrible attack?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our country is in great need, and we are in the most serious collision course we have ever been on. Yet the church who is called to be a House of Prayer for the Nations doesn't even have to time to fast and pray. We can't even find people to help us pray at our 24/7 prayer center for this kind of prayer and seeking the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have met many Pastors and Leaders who say it is a good idea to have this kind of Center, but not one church has joined in laboring with us to pray for our region, city, churches, and leaders accept on the National or Global Day of prayer or a "prayer event." Why is that? Are we too funny looking or something?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Beloved, Prayer events are great,&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;but they are like shooting stars that light the sky only for a moment. &lt;/span&gt;We need a continuous city, state and national prayer movement that will shake heaven and change earth&lt;/span&gt;. Why are we not doing it? Because we say I am OK, your OK? &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;We refuse to believe we have sinned against God. We refuse to believe that God is hardly even welcome in our meetings? We refuse to believe that our services and meetings are now "user friendly" instead of God friendly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Our churches are wonderful places for people to come, but awful for God's presence to come too! &lt;/span&gt;We have put the&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; needs of men&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;above&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;the needs of our God who needs us to love Him with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;Church in America, did we miss our wake up call?&lt;/span&gt; Did we miss our moment? Is there still time to repent and change? Can God burn 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; Chronicles 7:14 in all of our hearts? Will we do it? &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"&gt;Will we come together as one voice, one church and one people and repent of our wicked ways and turn from them? Will we seek his face and humble ourselves so He will heal our land?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let 9/11/2009 be a call to truly turn our hearts back to God and to know His ways. Let it be a time we can begin to say, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"search me oh God and see if there be any wicked way in me."&lt;/span&gt; Let this memorial 2009 be a time where we &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"His priest"&lt;/span&gt; minister between the porch and the alter with fasting, weeping until every hindrance of broken fellowship with God is restored.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;Only then can this nation and the church in the USA be the light we have been called to be in the world.&lt;/span&gt; It is not too late, but time is growing shorter. If you are one that God is touching today, please write to me at&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; henry@iamtucson.org.&lt;/span&gt; Let is start with you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;We are going to start a national repentance prayer network of prayer warriors starting this month.

It is a word that is very strong for us to hear, and I fear many won’t want to hear it at all. It is a word that must deal with the very heart of what this series of teaching is about, dead religion, or a living genuine relationship with God through Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Prophetic Alert came to me as I sought the Lord on what He would have me to write next from His heart. As I waited upon the Lord, His overwhelming urgency hit me. An urgency that we can't &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"teach"&lt;/span&gt; the change that needs to come to the church in America and our leadership, but&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; WE MUST&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;CHANGE NOW!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I write to you this early morning, though I started last evening, with a very heavy heart before the Lord. It is as if the Lord is showing me a picture of the church and the majority of our Christian leaders in the church in our nation.  &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I am seeing our present church leaders as little children who don’t want to hear what their parent or teacher has to say. I see the majority of our Christian leaders with their fingers in their ears and making the sound like a child, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;nana&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;nana&lt;/span&gt;, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;nana&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As the Lord is trying to speak, correct and discipline us his leaders and his church; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;we are making noises from our mouths with our fingers in our ears so we won’t hear what the Lord wants to say to us. &lt;/span&gt;This is a pivotal position of divine significance that we the Christian leaders are now taking before God Himself. This spiritual position is going to bring the winds of the North to blow more swiftly and powerful upon our nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This spiritual &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"rebellion"&lt;/span&gt; of not wanting to truly hear what the Spirit of God is saying to us as present Church leaders is stifling the life of the Body of Christ we were called to tend. This &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;"rebellion of heart"&lt;/span&gt; of not heading the call to repent as His people is causing the church in which we are to make disciples of Christ to  have "form of godliness, but denying the power there of in our nation. It is causing us to make religious church goers of God's  people who truly don't even know who God is, or that He desires to fellowship and speak to them every day and to lead them as their Good Shepherd.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This vision is breaking my heart as it is breaking His! For the Lord is impressing on me that this is our hearts posture as the church leaders in America as a whole. This is how God is seeing us the (American church) every Pastor, Leader and Minister in this nation at this present moment. He is saying like children plugging their ears to His correction, that &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;we have rebellion of the heart against Him and His authority over us.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is no true genuine national call to Godly repentance for our sins of compromise and idolatry we have allowed being in our midst as the Body of Christ in America. Beloved, fruit does not lie and we are to judge a tree by it's fruit. We are lacking the national repentance as God's leaders and people as required in the book of Joel chapter 2 that He required of Israel, or the repentance that came forth in Nineveh when the prophet Jonah warned them of God’s judgment. We have given lip service to the call of repentance, but have not &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;rended&lt;/span&gt; our hearts before God or even our garments and returned to the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Spirit of Religion will never repent. It can't repent nor can the leaders under it's power. The religious spirit in leaders will want to kill anyone who calls them on their sins or tells them to repent. John the Baptist, called them by the Spirit of God, Brood of Vipers. Jesus called them, whitewashed tombs." Why? Because the leaders heard the word of the Lord and gnashed their teeth at the call to repent by both by John the Baptist and  Jesus the Son of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These religious leaders in the time of Jesus, just like many of the leaders are in our time, would not allow God to convict them of their sins. They boasted because&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;"they have Abraham as their Father.&lt;/span&gt;"&lt;/span&gt; and we church leaders have boasted &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"we have the blood of Jesus"&lt;/span&gt;   These religious leaders became filled with arrogance and rage as the message to repent came to them  in their dead religion, and they had hatred and contempt against the Lord Himself and His forerunner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That spirit of religion is ruling over the church in the USA and our leadership. We do not want to hear the word that we have turned astray from God. We don't want to hear we are filled with idols in our hearts and churches. That is why God is sending this North wind to blow upon His church. Does that mean there is not a remnant of God’s people truly repenting and hearing His voice? Of course not, there are those in this nation who have ears to hear what God is requiring. There are those who have begun even to answer that call of true repentance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am writing this blog before you read the prophetic alert that if you are open to what the Holy Spirit is speaking and not harden your heart, God will bring a spiritual breakthrough in your life and perhaps the Winds of the North will spread the fire of God in those who are hearing and obeying His command.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What I am receiving from the Lord tonight, is that the remnant’s cry will be too little, too late if God does not grant us a miracle in our Nations Church leaderships heart. God is looking at us not just as individuals but as a “nation” of believers who are to have their hearts totally seeking God as their first love, and His kingdom as their first priority. Sadly, this is not our spiritual condition, and beloved this must change now. That is what the Prophetic Alert will declare to us from the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord is trying to get our attention. He is calling to us by opening up to us His word in the Book of Revelation chapters 1 to 3, but we are not heeding its call to us as His people to repent and be over comers. Because of our spiritual posture of &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;"rebellion of the heart"&lt;/span&gt; as the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;“national church leadership,”&lt;/span&gt; the Lord is revealing to me that the Winds of the North are going to blow over our nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Because we are not listening nor  heeding His call to true and genuine repentance that breaks the religious yoke of bondage that has produced a "form of godliness," in us. Nor have we returned to our first love to do our first work, these winds from the North  are going to increase speedily upon us. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The North winds in scriptures represent the winds of adversity. Beloved, I do not have a clue of what that is going to look like or how it will come, but it will come. I am not prophesying events, attacks or any such thing, those things are known by God. The adversity of these winds, whatever they may be personally or as a nation, is to  bring us to true repentance as the people of God and leaders in this nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is not God’s highest intention for us in having to bring this wind upon us.&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; These winds are coming because we have not heeded the call to be broken over our sins and repent.&lt;/span&gt; We won’t heed the call and mandate from God to follow 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt; Chronicles 7:14.&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; "If my people, who are called by My name, would humble themselves, seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sins and heal their land."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are too busy doing our own thing,taking our city for God! We have been doing our own agendas, boasting we are the fastest growing church in America, even in the name of God. We will do everything else but pray and fast. We will do everything else but repent of our sins. We will do everything else but what David did as he cried, "search me Oh God and try me, and see if there be any wicked way in me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have fallen for the deception that we "the church" are alright, and it is the wicked Democrats or Republicans that are causing the problem. We have fallen for the lie that because the Supreme Court allows abortion or gay marriage that we have these problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Our nations problems is because of our sin in the church that we will not turn and repent from.  Our nations problems is because we the church of the living God is lukewarm and having a love affair with the world. We will not allow the Lord to build His church, we want to do it with our programs, agendas that make us feel good.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is because of our desire as Christian leaders to build something big for God, and ourselves a name for God that we have brought the things of the world, the music of the world, the ways of the world into the house of God as idols. and much, much more. We won't preach against sin in the church because we may lose tithers. We allow divorce like it is drinking water. The Episcopal Church, the Lutherans are now allowing gay ministers even though the word of God forbids this kind of activity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please precious readers, this is our sins. Not the Episcopal, Lutheran, Denominational or Non-Denominational. We all have sin still in our hearts. We have spots, blemishes and wrinkles we are living with as acceptable in our lives. The Lord is speaking that He is coming for a &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Bride&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;without spot or blemish! &lt;/span&gt;Yet we don't believe it in reality. We believe the words, but they are not for us. The Leaders of the church in the USA want to preach "happy" messages, or messages that "condemn" the world, while God is saying, "look at you."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why should I even write this word to you and all of us? If I were smart in the sense of the world, I would water this message down and not even write the prophetic alert. I should make it easier to swallow to the readers so they will still like me. I should not even mention the &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;“church leadership”&lt;/span&gt; in this word or in the prophetic alert.  I should save my reputation. No one will ask me to come and minister in their church.Why, would I risk all that to write this blog and release this prophetic alert?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because Dear Reader, every fiber of my being wants to see the true unity of the Body of Christ come into existence and to see this Glorious Bride Jesus is waiting for. These words that I write in this blog and the prophetic alert, might be misunderstood and misrepresented. I may be accused of being divisive, proud or whatever someone may say as to write such a word on the website as from the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Truthfully beloved, in the natural it will do me much more harm then good even amongst my brethren in Christ to post this alert and to write this blog, but it will be worth whatever the price may be if one Pastor, leader or person hears it and changes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, hear my heart of love toward you and to us as His Body, I write this word to all of us her in the USA. I am not excused from its power to convict my own heart. I am guilty as much as any other leader in our nation. These are our sins, not theirs or someone else’s. This is our nation.  The church in America has lost our way, and for the most part has become religious with a form of Godliness denying the power thereof, I am afraid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I write these words this early morning because I love the Lord with all my heart. I write them because I love His people, His church, His bride with every fiber of my being. I write them because we all must change, repent of our sins and turn back to the Lord the way He desires, not the way we desire to change.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have no desire to hurt anyone or sow a seed of discord. But the word I am writing to this nation, and to our church leadership is burning in my bones. I know if I don’t write it, I will have much blood upon my hands, and I love the Lord and His people to much to stay silent. I pray that the Spirit of God will prove this word to you as a witness of His Spirit as you read this prelude and the Prophetic Alert to be posted shortly. But if not, you are free to not read another word or sentence and disconnect from this website if you desire. I won’t know anyway, it will between you and God alone. If I have missed it in your eyes, please forgive me!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I write this word from the Lord, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;I have the sense of Jesus once again brooding over us as He did over Jerusalem. His desire was to gather them to Himself like a mother hen with her chicks. &lt;/span&gt;The Lord actually spoke that in this prophetic alert of the Lord to us in America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;His posture toward the church leaders and Body of Christ in America is to gather us under His wings by us&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; truly repenting as a people of God.&lt;/span&gt; Too truly repent and return to Him and to know his heartbeat. This is His greatest desire for us as His people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At this present moment in history however; we the church leadership won’t listen to that voice to turn and repent, In this we have made a fatal &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;“divine choice of rebellion”&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;and now the North winds must come.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the picture God has shown me about this prophetic alert, &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;we have gone past the point of not hearing His voice. &lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;It is now our present church leadership’s position that “we won’t listen to His voice like a child who has blocked their ears to their parents voice.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;God must now bring to us this stronger warning to every single Pastor and church leader in this nation, me included, by sending the North Winds of adversity to us.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;What we do with this word will determine our destiny individually and as a nation of believers. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved Reader, you are free to dismiss this word as not from the Lord. You have every right to judge and discern it. Let the true prophets of God and His ministers judge this prelude and the prophetic alert that will be posted in this next day for its birth and origin. Are these words from the Holy Spirit or not? You dearest readers and church leader have been given by God the right to discern these words I am writing if they are His words or not, and you need to do so.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If the prophetic alert and this prelude are the Words from God mouth, I pray the fire of God will consume you as you read them. I pray that a true genuine Spirit of Tears will be birthed in your heart for your life, your family, your church and the Body of Christ in this nation. May the needs of God be met through you as you seek Him with fasting, morning and a sincere broken heart over our spiritual condition and sins.  May the Body of Christ in this nation change tonight, starting with me, you and all those who will hear His voice?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have asked my Communications Director to put a note on the Prophetic Alert site to read this blog first.  Now that you have read this, look for the Alert to be posted on our homepage in a day or so. The title of the alert is&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; "The North winds shall spread the fire."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless each and everyone of you Dearest Readers, and thank you for reading this blog today!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-7275380082420148613?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/08/religion-or-relationship-5-prophetic.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

I want to thank the 78 nations and 1000 cities throughout the world that have taken time to view our website and to read these blogs. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I pray they are a blessing to you who read them. It would be nice once in a while for you readers to add a comment or to send me an email if these teachings are making a difference in your life. I pray they are beneficial and bringing you closer to the heart of God. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;I do want you to know, that I too like Paul wrote was the chiefest amongst sinners. I am learning how to surrender more and more to the awesome love of God through the power of the Holy Spirit. There is an awakening in my Spirit of the Kingdom that is about to come. The Kingdom of Jesus Christ being established on the earth for a 1000 years. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Dear reader it is burning in me. Our King is really coming and will He find a people or a bride that has made herself ready. Will He find faith on the earth when he comes. Remember Dearest Readers, the kingdoms of this earth will become theh Kingdoms of our Christ the Lord. We are being prepared now to rule and reign with Him forever and ever. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;There is a call to His church today. Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your heart as they did when they came out of Egypt. There is cry to us from Jesus, "He that has an ear let him here what the Spirit says to the churches." I pray you are one of them and that is how you found this blog. I pray this 100th post will change your life forever in Him. God bless you my dear friends, brothers and sisters and family of God.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;The Gehsemane Cry: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;I wonder how many of you dear readers ever saw the movie “The passion of Christ.” It is an incredible movie about the suffering and death of Jesus like none other portrayed before. It is violent and a graphic portrayal of the torture Jesus went through at the hands of the Romans with the approval of the Jewish Leaders.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Literally in the movie they portray a cat of 9 tails whip pulling the flesh out of Jesus back, legs and arms and blood pouring everywhere. This is far more graphic than other movies like King of Kings or Jesus of Nazareth. There was a lot of uproar over the movie being made because it portrays the Romans and Jews not in a pretty light and the barbaric torture that Jesus went through.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The movie begins where I want to share with you in this blog. It begins in the Garden of Gethsemane. In this Garden, Jesus is tempted with His greatest temptation, not to die for our sins or take our place. So agonizing was this choice that Jesus sweat great drops of blood from His forehead.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that Garden the great wrestling match of heaven and earth took place. Once again a divine choice was at stake. The first Adam when faced with a choice to do God’s will above all, succumbed to his wife and decided to choose his own will, over God’s will. There was no suffering involved, no torture, just a simple choice: who do I belong to? Who will I serve? Whose will is supreme, his or God’s?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With one simple act demonstrated to him by his wife, he gave in to being his own god and separated himself from God’s glory until the day God would provide a savior Christ the Lord. One simple act of disobedience condemned mankind to be under the rule of Satan the god of this world for the last 6000 years.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Look around dear family of God and read the history of mankind under the dominion of Satan the god of this world. You see this is very important for you to grasp. The reason Judas betrayed Jesus was to force his hand to set up &lt;strong&gt;“an earthly kingdom”&lt;/strong&gt; then and there. Jesus refused to do so and said to Pilot, “I am a king; my kingdom is not of this world. &lt;strong&gt;If my kingdom were of this world my Father would send legions of angels to defend me.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus Christ did not come 2000 years ago to set up an earthly kingdom then, but to establish His kingdom in the hearts of men. Dear reader this is the heart that separates a religion from a relationship. Jesus ultimate goal at that time was to rule “the heart’s of men by allowing men to be “born again” from above. "He came to demonstrate to us a life under the completer rulership of Abba Father on this earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My dear family in Christ in which I am laboring with my tears, Jesus never deviated from the menu, never made up new rules, and never changed the Father’s plan. In fact He said, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;“I have not come to do my own will, but the will of the Father that sent me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Listen to these following passages of scripture to see this kingdom authority and power in a man’s heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;John 4:34, “my meat is to do the will of Him who sent me, and to finish my work.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;John 5:29 “And they will come out; those who have done good, into the new life; and those who have done evil, to be judged. John 5:30&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Of myself I am unable to do anything: as the voice comes to me so I give a decision: and my decision is right because &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;I have no desire to do what is pleasing to myself, but only what is pleasing to him who sent me.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The book of Hebrews quotes an old testament prophesy about Jesus telling His true purpose for coming: Let us read it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heb 10:4 -9 &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;for it is impossible that the blood of bulls and goats should take away sins. Wherefore when he cometh into the world, he said, Sacrifice and offering thou does not desire,&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; But a body you have prepare for me;&lt;/span&gt; In whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou has no pleasure:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Then said I, Lo, I am come &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;(In the roll of the book it is written of me)&lt;/span&gt; To do thy will, O God. &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Saying above, Sacrifices and offerings and whole burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin thou would not accept, neither have you pleasure in (they are offered according to the law), then hath he said,&lt;/span&gt; Lo, I am come to do thy will. &lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;He takes away the first covenant that he may establish the second covenant.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I write to you this evening, by the way ends up to the early morning, I want us all to see how far we have fallen from the heart and truth of this glorious Gospel, me included. Why did Jesus come to the earth to save us?&lt;strong&gt; Did He come to save us from our “guilty conscious” from our past sins only? Did He come so that we can receive forgiveness today to go back to living exactly how we did before we knew Him?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a good point to make beloved readers! Many believe that once we are saved we are always saved no matter what we do because we have Jesus in us now. Some even believe since we have the Holy Spirit in us, we can never sin; our flesh is doing it according to Romans 7. They believe it is not them doing it but sin in them. It is ok for the sin to do it, because it is not them committing the sin. They are perfect because of the blood of the lamb and the power of the Holy Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;This is a true false doctrine and a doctrine of devils. In the USA, most Christians don’t believe that but many live like that. A good dear friend in Christ just shared a statistic with me that only 57% of evangelical Born Again Christians in the USA believe that Jesus is the only way for salvation and to God! Did you read that? That means 43% of Evangelical Christians believe there is another way to find God and be saved here in the USA?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How could we ever stray so far from the TRUTH of the Gospel? Beloved, John the Baptist came preaching this Gospel as a Friend of the Bridegroom or His Forerunner and listen to His words about true repentance and change of our hearts. Please read the highlighted verses:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Mat 3:1 And in those days cometh John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, saying, Mat 3:2 &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Repent ye; for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.&lt;/span&gt; Mat 3:3 for this is he that was spoken of through Isaiah the prophet, saying, &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make ye ready the way of the Lord, Make his paths straight.&lt;/span&gt; Mat 3:4 Now John himself had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 3:5 Then went out unto him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about the Jordan; Mat 3:6 and they were baptized of him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins. Mat 3:7 &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to his baptism, he said unto them, You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Mat 3:8 Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 3:9 and think not to say within yourselves, we have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to rise up children unto Abraham. Mat 3:10 and even now the axe lies at the root of the trees: every tree therefore that brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Mat 3:11 I indeed baptize you in water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire: Mat 3:12 whose fan is in his hand,&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; and he will thoroughly cleanse his threshing-floor; and he will gather his wheat into the garner, but the chaff he will burn up with unquenchable fire.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;Does that sound like a message of &lt;strong&gt;“once saved, always saved”&lt;/strong&gt; to you? Beloved reader, there was a requirement to meet God’s terms of salvation: Repent! That means turn around, amend your ways, and do the opposite of what you were doing that was sin. John warned them by saying to them &lt;strong&gt;“who warned you about God’s judgment to come upon all mankind?&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Bring forth fruit that proves you are a different person, a new man.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved we quote 2nd Cor. 5:17 every week, but is it a true living reality in us? Let us read it: 2Cor. 5:17: &lt;strong&gt;"Wherefore if any man is in Christ, he is a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new.&lt;/strong&gt;"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Beloved reader, are we really new creatures or have we just changed our vocabulary? Are we still living like we did before we knew Christ? Do we still have the same priorities, nice house, and new car, no problems in our lives, lots of money, vacation, and ball games?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, has anything in us really changed? Are we open to the Kingdom of God’s rule in our heart? Are we living to please ourselves, satisfy ourselves as we did before we are saved? Or have we heard what Jesus said, “No greater love than this than a man lay his life down for his friends.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Reader, the power of &lt;strong&gt;the Gethsemane Cry&lt;/strong&gt; was not that Jesus sweat great drops of blood or even the fact that he was tempted. This was not the first time He was tempted by the enemy. The power of the &lt;strong&gt;Gethsemane Cry&lt;/strong&gt; is the fact it was here Jesus won, “our new life to be hid in him.” It is here, real Christianity gets its power and meaning.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Jesus said, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;“&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Here I am, coming to do your will Oh God. A body you have prepared for me.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; He established a &lt;strong&gt;“new covenant based on a new truth.”&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt; NOT MY WILL, BUT YOURS BE DONE!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; It is this Truth and this TRUTH alone that established a &lt;strong&gt;BETTER COVENANT&lt;/strong&gt; the Book of Hebrew explains in chapter 9-11.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Christianity wasn’t based upon someone praying a sinner’s prayer. It wasn’t based on our&lt;strong&gt; “idea”&lt;/strong&gt; of what it means to be born again, but God’s idea of what it is to be born again. To be Born again in the power of the Holy Spirit is to live a &lt;strong&gt;“completely new and different life on this earth.” &lt;/strong&gt;Not the same one we had before with whip cream and a cherry on top because we go to church. The late Keith Green said,&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; “Going to church does not make you anymore of a Christian than going to McDonald’s makes you a hamburger.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In America, our brand of Christianity testifies of a new life in Christ. It preaches about it, but it does not do it. The church of today preaches being born again,&lt;strong&gt; but does not lead people&lt;/strong&gt; to the &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“power of being born again of the Spirit of God.”&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt; If this were not true, the church would never be in the mess we are in at the end of the age as found in Revelation Chapters 1-3.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our present brand of Christianity allows us to &lt;strong&gt;“keep our life as it were, except get rid of the awful things that are not pleasing in men’s sight”,&lt;/strong&gt; and take all the good of our new life in Christ. It is this very thought, heart and attitude that has produced a Luke warm church in this nation that will be spewed out of the mouth of God unless we truly repent of our sins.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The agony of Gethsemane in a believer’s life is hardly felt anymore. Again the Bible tells us of the real wrestling of our souls it takes to follow Christ and break the power of living our old life under sin’s dominion. Listen to the word of God found in Hebrews chapter 12:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Heb 12:1 Therefore let us also, seeing we are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Heb 12:2 looking unto Jesus the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising shame, and hath sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;Heb 12:3 For consider him that has endured such gainsaying of sinners against himself, that you wax not weary, fainting in your souls.&lt;/span&gt; Heb 12:4 You have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the agony in the Garden, this is &lt;strong&gt;Gethsemane's Cry.&lt;/strong&gt; Jesus was going to condemn the power of sin over us and in our lives by putting it to death on the cross. &lt;strong&gt;He was going to bring forth the ability in us by the power of His endless life and the Holy Spirit coming upon us to live that same life of 100% obedience to God's will. It is that grace that we can now say by that same Holy Spirit, &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Here I am Father, coming to do your will!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;This is the real Gethsemane's cry&lt;/strong&gt;! That same new life in Christ is to live as citizens of heaven and strangers on this earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, the un-believers do not see that real changed life of Chrsit in us as a Body of Christ. A few individuals or even a few churches might reflect that, but the Body of Christ here in America is scorned, maligned, laughed at and ridiculed not because of our belief in Christ, but our failure to live like Him as citizens of another Kingdom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I know many of you who have made it this far in this blog might say, Brother Henry, you are too critical. Brothers and Sisters let me assure you that I am not excluding myself from this word. This word is for me as much as anybody else. I need to grow deeper into Christ than I ever have before until the Kingdom of God consumes me as it did Paul, Peter, James and John.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In that Garden, &lt;strong&gt;Gethsemane's cry was proven&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Jesus could have walked away and we all would be dead in our sin. He could have looked for a short cut away from death of the cross, but he didn’t.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; He came to restore the true Kingdom of God in men’s heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is that Kingdom in reality: &lt;strong&gt;"Here I am, I have come to do your will Oh God, A body you have prepared for me.” &lt;/strong&gt;I have not come to bring offerings and sacrifices to you, but a life that is completely and totally lived in your will Father God alone.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This and this alone is where real and genuine Christianity alone. It is not based on the work we do for God, nor even going to the mission field. It has nothing to do with the outward but everything to do with the inward “miracle power of God” to change your life to “love to do the Father’s will.” &lt;strong&gt;Dear reader, will these be yours and my testimony? Will we say, here I am Lord, a body you have prepared for me?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many in the Body of Christ are basing their whole walk with God on what they are doing for His kingdom! I pray it is for His Kingdom and not theirs. Remember Jesus said, “&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Many in that day will say to me Lord, Lord, look what we have done in your name. We healed the sick, cast out devils and prophesied in your name. Jesus looked at them and said, “Depart from me you workers of iniquity, I never knew you.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, may none of us ever hear those words, &lt;strong&gt;but if our life is not radically changed,&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;our priorities the opposite of this world, our language, our actions the opposite of what we were, I wonder if we are really yet Born Again from above. &lt;/strong&gt;The kingdom of God is from above and it is in you, and it is righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Honestly my beloved family of God in the USA is this your life my fellow Christian? Are you living solely for Him and His will alone each day? Have you abandoned yourself away from the love of this world, for the Love of Him and His kingdom? Is there real and true evidence of a “new life” in Christ being lived in you? &lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Can Gethsemane's cry&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;be heard in you as it was in Christ Jesus?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If not, it is not too late to try again. Ask the Holy Spirit now to bring the power of true conviction to your heart until a Godly sorrow arises in you. Then when and if He convicts you of sin, turn from your sins and turn to Him/ Promise Him today you will walk in another and new direction of His will for your life. Start by making what I am about to write the deepest cry of your heart?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Dear Heavenly Father,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Today I have heard your word, and I make a true and honest pledge to do your will for the rest of my life. I forsake this world and all that is in it and ask the Holy Spirit to establish the Kingdom of God in my heart. I Ask you to take over my life and now to lead me in the footsteps of Christ. I Ask you to reveal in me the true Son of God in the power of the Holy Spirit. I am today a willing prisoner for the rest of my life, and I really mean it. So today Oh God, by your grace I pray and cry out to you, Here I am Lord, ready to do your will, a body you have prepared for me. I am yours now and forever, save me completely and finish your work in me now and forever more, in Jesus name I pray and I receive&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000000;"&gt;If you prayed that prayer above Dearest Reader, the fire of God will consume you and the real Born Again power of God will come to your life to live a true Christian life. If you prayed this prayer today, please write me at henry@flameoffire2007.org and let me know you did. I will write back to you and pray for you as soon as I receive it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;May you be the first and real fruit of the coming Kingdom of God that is about to be established on the earth in Jesus' Millennial Reign. Thank you for praying this prayer and please contact me. Please pray for me for this is my own prayer as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;In His love to you always, Beloved Readers!!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-1931172549786029059?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/08/religion-verses-relationship-5.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

As I write this blog, I accuse no one or try to sound critical or judgmental, but I weep tonight over “OUR” true condition.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;I am writing this to all our Brothers and Sisters in the nations that are reading this, and I am asking for you to pray for us, your family here in the USA. Many of us have lost our way to the true light of Jesus Christ as He really is. &lt;p&gt;I implore my Christian family throughout the world to pray for us Christians here in the &lt;?xml:namespace prefix = st1 /&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;USA&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. God has been bringing together men and women of God who share this same heart wrenching feeling like Nehemiah did when he heard the report about &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Jerusalem&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; in His day. My dear friend and Brother Pastor Jackson from &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Arizona&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt; preached a message about this, and gave us a word concerning our work like Nehemiah and the condition of God’s people in our nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dear Christian Leader, Pastor, Prophet, Apostle, Evangelist and Teacher what have we done to this beautiful church that was supposed to be filled with the Glory of God? Tonight I could write about the restoration movements since the dark ages until now. I could write about the restoration of the Prophets and the Apostles, or even the Omega Generation. Yet I fear, what we are looking for today is another “revival” or another “move of God,” greater than the last one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am afraid we in the American Spirit Filled churches are looking for another “rush” of the Holy Spirit instead of preparing to come into the time of Christ’s rule in His Millennial Kingdom. I ask myself “what are we doing with the time we have?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Are we redeeming it for the Lord? I ask myself am I just a convert or am I true disciple and follower of Christ? Can I say with the Apostle Paul in living reality, “I have been crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, but not I, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live, I live by faith in the Son of God who loves me and gave himself for me.” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I wish you could see the tears in my eyes as I write this tonight of the sorrow that is welling up inside of me for our true condition. One of my favorite movies is “The Robe.” The movie is about the centurion who crucified Christ, and His conversion to true Christianity. I weep every time I see that movie at His true and unconditional salvation, and his willingness to die for the one he crucified. What an example of being a true disciple, but the revelation in this movie I want to bring forward is this: After His death the Romans refers to Jesus as the &lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;“Crucified One.”&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I can’t even write this because I am overwhelmed by the Spirit of God. They called him the &lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;“Crucified One.”&lt;/span&gt; The Romans didn’t call him the “King of the Jews,” but the &lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;"Crucified One."&lt;/span&gt; The question we must ask dear Pastors and leaders of this nation is if our name is called Christians, DO WE RESEMBLE THE CRUCIFIED ONE? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The Apostle Paul said, “We are to die daily, and put this flesh to the death of the cross.” The Bible tells us “we have been purchased with a price, we are “NOT OUR OWN.” Yet do our lives reflect the “Crucified One?” Can the world and the people around us tell we have been purchased with a price? Can they really tell, “we are not our own?” I pass judgment on no one, I may be writing this just for me tonight. But could we be identified in substance and reality with the “Crucified One?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Do our gatherings, our Sunday meetings reflect the “image of the Crucified One?” Pastors in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; or in the nations, what will your message be to God’s people in the morning? Will it be about how God will bless you, provide for you, or how you must reach the lost at any cost? Will it be about all we are doing this week building out church vision?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Will we have 10 minutes of announcements to show how hard we are working for God? Will we have a message written to fit into the time frame the people want? Will be keep the number of songs to 7? Will we keep our service schedule and agenda no matter what, or will the presence of God be welcome to come and do as He pleases? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dear men and women of God, are your people God entrusted to you growing in the true knowledge of God? Can they hear the voice of God themselves? Are they like Paul said to the Hebrews, “by this time you ought to be teachers, but you are mere babes, still needing the milk of the word to grow by.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Do the people you pastor work for God as an employer and they are the employee waiting for the pay check to come? Or have you taught them the true cost of following Christ? Have we demonstrated to them what it means that “no greater love than this that a man lay down His life for his friends? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;What does the church you Pastor look like from God’s perspective? What does your ministry look like from God’s perspective? Is what we are doing “for” God more important than “being with” God and knowing His heartbeat?” Dear Minister of the Gospel would we even ask? Just in a slight chance, could this blog be a word of the Lord to each of us in the USA? How about us fellow believers? Does this word apply to our lives as well? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The church in &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Laodicea&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; boasted that “they were rich and in need of nothing.” I can not see a truer indictment against the church in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; than found in that statement. A statement we here in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; boast everyday, because of our “knowledge of God?” In all our meetings and conferences, books we write to sell, and all we do for God don’t they declare in our own minds, "we are rich and in need of nothing? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Dear one, I am trembling tonight as I write this, but would Jesus say to us, “but I say you are poor, blind, pitiable and naked I exhort you to buy gold tried by the fire and eye salve for your eyes so you may see, and white raiment to cover your nudity?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I know this is an offensive word to us in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; specially God’s leadership in this nation, because we can boast of so much and yet miss the whole picture. I weep tonight to see that the “best of all our works," and efforts as the church in America, our nations is falling more and more away from the ONE TRUE AND LIVING GOD. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The truth is that it is my fault and all of us in this nation. We have lost our first love and more. We lost the WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE! Our light in this nation is being buried more and more by our compromise and sin with the world in our own &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;temple&lt;/st1:placetype&gt; of &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;God&lt;/st1:placename&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;, and in the whole body of Christ as well. We just don’t see it yet, or perhaps we don't want to see it?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We think the life we are living for Christ is normal and right. This is the Gospel that was handed down to us by our fathers. We have no idea how far we strayed from belonging to the "Crucified One." We talk about signs, wonders and miracles following us, but at the present moment there is no power in our life to raise the dead, heal the sick or mountain moving faith to speak to a rock and water to come out, or can we even walk on water like Peter did? &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We boast we are strong, rich and powerful, but the truth is we are poor, blind, pitiable and naked. It is so easy in our nation as a Christian to “get lost” in “everyday life.” The bible is true concerning our nation. “The cares of the world, the deceitfulness of riches, has CHOKED THE VERY WORD OF GOD out of us."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;It is true for the church in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; as found in Luke chapter 14: The Lord has called to us, “Behold, all things are now ready come to my feast." Yet the call to “come to Him” is falling on many deaf ears because of our love affair with the world and all it offers us. In Luke 14, the invited guest all made excuses of why “they could not come to the feast." They said, "I have to wait for my husband to come first. I have little league practice and have to take my son. Can I come later after I take care of my own life, I have to cut the grass?" &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In this parable each one said to Jesus, “I can’t come now because, I have a wife, a job, a home, please have me excused. They refused to come when the time came for all things have been made ready. Are we doing the same thing now in our time of His divine calling and coming?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Jesus is standing on the outside of the church in Rev. Chapter 3 knocking at our door for intimacy with us, and desiring for us to sup with Him and His with us. Are we hearing His knock, and will we let Him in to our lives as the “Crucified one?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;In the classic Christian movie, “The Robe”, when Marcellus, the centurion receives forgiveness for crucifying Jesus, he says to Peter, “this day I enlist in His service. I pledge my life, my allegiance, my name, my fortune to His service so help me God as a Roman.” The rest of the movie is about his whole life being dedicated to Christ alone.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;He loses his family as they reject him for following Christ. He loses His position in the army of the Emperor. He becomes an out law to everything His life was. His "new life in Christ" could now be seen as being identified as belonging to the “Crucified One, can ours here in America?” He eventually loses his life in the movie for his love of Jesus, and his unwillingness to deny Christ to save his life. He was like His master, the "Crucified One."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I know my family of believers here in the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;USA&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;; this is so hard to swallow for us. It is for me as I am reflecting on my life, my commitment to Christ as well. Is my walk with Him, safe, soft and secure and neat, as in need of nothing? Do you know that Jesus said, “If you love your Father, Mother, Sister or Brother more than me, you can not be my disciple?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Beloved Reader, why have we fallen for the “safe, secure and neat Gospel of blessing” over the true spiritual life of being and belonging to the “Crucified One?” Have we accepted that the Christianity as we understand it to be today is right because it was handed down to us that way? Have we believed “another gospel message?” I am afraid we truly have in this nation! These are questions we must ask of ourselves if we are going to be prepared to rule and reign with Him for a thousand years.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am afraid we are not even close to being ready for that day, yet the day is coming more swiftly upon us than we could ever know. Jesus warned us not to “let this day come upon us as a thief and unawares.” Yet, I weep tonight because it is going to come upon the majority of believers in this nation that way without a “real and deep change of heart” where the Holy Spirit can bring true and lasting repentance birthed in genuine Godly sorrow. Without true and genuine repentance, I fear we will end up spewed out of the mouth of God as a Luke warm church.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Maybe I am just lost or you can call me crazy if you like, beloved ones of the Lord for writing to you this way. But I have read recently some of the prophetic website and all the prophecies about all the “wonderful things God is about to do for us.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;They speak of "new anointings" and "more blessings and power" to the church that is filled with every type of sin from the spirit of the world. James writes that we are "having an illicit love affair with the world and being "unfaithful wives" to God. James tells us, "that to be a friend of this world is to be an enemy of God."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;What are we doing Ministers off the Gospel? Why are we bringing more and more of the things of the world into our churches and meetings to save the lost rather than preach about the "Crucified One" and the price of following Him?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The present day "named" prophets declare there is nothing wrong with us and God is going to bless us. Revival is coming, outpouring is coming, glory is coming. Even the “leaders of repute” and recognized in the Body of Christ as the "big boys and girls of ministry" are not calling us the church back to repentance in the power of conviction and real change. How can I say that? Where is the change of true repentance in our nation? Are we better today or worse?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The only message I hear is that we “must do more” or “work harder” or something along those lines. Where are the message of the Holiness of God and the true fear of the Lord in our churches?” One of the leaders of the largest church in the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;USA&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; when asked about preaching about sin said, “I don’t have to, I have to teach the people to be happy and live a good life.” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;We have abandoned Him, His Glory, His holiness and exchanged it for “working for God.” Beloved reader this is killing us and every new believer that joins our churches! We are teaching the new believers first, God wants to bless them and prosper them. We are teaching them the most important part of being a Christian is “working” for Him. We teach them to have a “job” for God is more important and should be first instead of a "deep abiding fellowship with Him in the Holy Spirit." We teach them to be faithful to clean the toilets and they will get power and position in the church! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Our present church system teaches them that this beautiful life in Christ is about building our church vision, or our own vision for God as: “We are going to take our city for God.” We are going to lead 1,000,000 souls for Christ. Yet “our vineyard we have not kept" as in the Song of Solomon Chapter 1. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I am so afraid that we have become so deceived at what Christ ask for us to do in the great commission by just winning the lost at any cost, instead of making true disciples who will follow Him in the nations. A disciple is to be exactly like His Master, but we preach the church instead of the "Crucified One." We have brought the great commission into our “own idea and understanding’ of what that means, that we lost the Christ, the “Crucified One” of the Great Commission. We have lost the Crucified One in our own hearts,JESUS, whom we are proclaiming. Where is that Crucified One in us? Are we known as the “Crucified Ones?” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Brother Henry, Jesus is raised from the dead; shouldn’t we consider us being the resurrected ones in stead of the Crucified Ones? That is a good question. Beloved, you can’t speak of resurrection until you are dead. So if you don’t identify with His DEATH FIRST, you can’t identify with his Resurrected life in power, dominion and authority either. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;No I am afraid we are called by the world, “religious, fanatics, hypocrites” at this present hour. We are despised not for “truly following Christ,” but because of our hypocrisy, competition, strife and division amongst us, and living unholy lives not led by the Spirit of God. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Beloved, I can identify with Nehemiah when he wept and pleaded to the Lord about the condition of &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Jerusalem&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;. We the “new Jerusalem being made” are not in much better shape in our time of restoration at this present moment. Our personal walls are burned down, our doorways unhinged. Our homes are scattered by the love of the world and compromise. Our temple has been destroyed and torn down so we are not even aware that we are the &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Temple&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt; of the Living God. Prayer has been removed from our temple and replaced by entertainment that has made us prisoners. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Shall I go on beloved? Do we have a “religion” that has a “form of Godliness” but deny the power of the “CRUCIFIED ONE?” Do we truly have his nature, character and purpose of Christ in us&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Beloved family in the other nations, I pray this has not happened to you. I pray that we are not bringing our “American brand” of Gospel to you where you begin to measure your life by your “accomplishments for God,” or your “prosperity in God.” I pray that you have not lost the power of the "Crucified One,” helping you pick up your cross and follow Him as we have not done in our nation. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Please families of God in the nations, pray for &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. Please beloved ones in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;, could you be honest Pastor, Leader or every day saint of God? Where is the likeness of the "Crucified One" in our life? Are we a reflection of that beauty of a “crucified life,” and say like Paul, "but nevertheless I live, but not I, but Christ lives in me?" &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;If this blog is reaching your spirit, please pray this prayer with me for our nation and His church in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. This is our time to confess our sin and become broken and humble before the Lord. It is time for the church in America to obey the instructions of 2nd Chronicles 7:14 together! Let us start today here in America, and may our international family please stand in the gap with us and pray this simple prayer: &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Dear Heavenly Father, today I am looking right into the face of Jesus who loved me enough to die for me and take my place and punishment. When I reflect on my life have I made excuses to your call? I have said, I have a wife, a job, a house, please excuse me in answering your call to live a true life in you. I have been like the foolish virgins resting in the fact I said a sinner’s prayer and you saved me, but I have done nothing with my life of growing to know you and follow you, or I did it on my terms. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;I too have said with our nation. I am wealthy and need of nothing but I did not recognize my true state before you. Please Jesus hear my cry. I don’t want to say I am sorry, I need you Holy Spirit to bring true and lasting conviction of mine and our sin with Godly sorrow so I can turn back to you where I belong. May the words in 2nd Chronicles 7:14 burn in me until you forgive our sins and heal our land.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Please Holy Spirit come and take your place to bring conviction of sin, righteousness and judgment to my life. Lead me out of the pit of this “religious Christianity” and bring me to the place of the Centurion. I pledge my life, my honor, my fame and fortune at your feet and truly enlist in your service." Thank you Jesus for hearing me and answering my prayer today. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#ff0000;"&gt;Your bond servant____________________&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-2532774305409993781?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/08/religion-or-relationship-4-crucified.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

There was an intense battle against it coming forth in every way. The enemy of our soul hated this topic and what God is about to do on the earth. He fought us in every way trying to prevent this conference from happening, but he failed and God was victorious.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I must say that this was the least attended by guests conference we ever had. It was if God handpicked who He wanted to be here. Many were called, but few were chosen to come. The conference was an explosion of the "deep of God" in our midst. He revealed secrets and mysteries of the Kingdom and the end time plan, that we could hardly contain it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor/Bishop Abraham &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Omanyo&lt;/span&gt; was our International Guest Speaker from &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Malaba&lt;/span&gt;, Kenya. What a Word of God in His mouth for our time and this people. Bishop provoked us unto the Holiness of God, and what it meant to be truly belonging to the Lord. He also taught about the "spiritual &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;preparation&lt;/span&gt;" needed to be ready for these last days.  Bishop preached a powerful word about becoming a prophetic people as well that burned in our hearts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Carl Jackson, Director of Teen Challenge of Tucson Arizona was our National guest speaker and this 73 year old prophet was burning with God's glory. He has discerned in the power of the Holy Spirit the "real spiritual state" of the church here in America with tears and intercession in his heart. This man and his wife our end time intercessors and watchman for our region and this nation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Carl taught on the spiritual steps need to grow into maturity in God! He also spoke about Flame of Fire being a "Nehemiah" ministry of rebuilding the city of God. What a blessed time we had under the anointing upon his life in teaching and even more in prayer. God has raised him up as a mighty warrior for the church and the cry of passion for Christ and desperation in prayer ignited all those who attended these meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rev. Donna &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Falcone&lt;/span&gt; also was used as a mighty oracle of the Lord. Donna preached about the "manifestations of the Sons of God." She unfolded mysteries to us that were profound as well about our spiritual state and the "choices" we must make now to become the Bride of the Lord, and over-comers in His kingdom. Her &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;analogies&lt;/span&gt; burned in the hearts in reality provoking us all to grow up into the head Jesus Christ.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was blessed to really teach about the the 6&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; and 7&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; day of Mankind and the 2&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;nd&lt;/span&gt; and third day of the church. The Lord allowed me to reveal the overlapping of the days, the spiritual &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;preparation&lt;/span&gt; that is happening in the Lord at this present moment. The Lord had me teach how to cooperate with God even in the fire to be brought forth like Gold and Silver. I was also by the grace of God to teach even deeper at the Miracle of the Wedding at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Canaan&lt;/span&gt; and then expound on the Rev. 12 The man-child arises and why.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This was the deepest prophetic conference in God we ever had. So much meat and understanding of these last days came forth to help us prepare for our destiny to rule and reign with Him forever and ever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sadly, not many came. I believe in Colorado the hears of the Northern area are very hard and the more the prophetic voice comes to the region the harder their hearts are becoming. This is one region of our nation that is really "rejecting" the Voice of the Forerunner that is preparing a way for the Lord's return. God must break the religious, prideful spirit that is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;entrenched&lt;/span&gt; in the area, and He will.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our prayer times in the morning were incredible and effective. I believe we &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_11"&gt;Will&lt;/span&gt; see such a spiritual turn around soon for the Greeley area and the walls of division trampled down. God sent us to Greeley to pray and lift up the hands of every Pastor in that region. We are for them and not against them. We are praying God would reveal Himself to each Pastor as the Consuming Fire He is and that His flame will burn in every part of His body, His church!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am believing God is about to breakthrough this region and Pastors will start to see the bigger picture of the "whole Body" not just "their part of the Body." The spirit of individualism and competition must come down for the Lord to come with a mighty visitation of His Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I pray any Pastor in the Greeley area that read this to ask yourself a question. What are you afraid of if God tour down our structures to make us His? What if you can't keep our little part for ourselves and our own ministry? What if God forces us to work, live and breath together as a whole Body of Christ? What will we do then? Who will be the leader? Who will get tithes first? Who will be in charge of a city of God, instead of a church for God?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These are questions God began to answer in our conference. Soon the conference will be available to buy in MP3 size or CD. The &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_12"&gt;Cd's&lt;/span&gt; take quite a bit longer, so be &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_13"&gt;patient&lt;/span&gt; with us in getting these to you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are still hungry for more of God, then plan to come to Tucson Arizona for a weekend of events called Catch the Fire. Bishop &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_14"&gt;Omanyo&lt;/span&gt; will be back to minister the love and power of God to us, so if you can come don't miss it no matter where you are in the world. God will  make a gift of you, if you choose to humble yourself now before the Lord and cry out for His mercy, &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_15"&gt;forgiveness&lt;/span&gt; and love. Don't miss your moment! Write to Rev. Brad from the website to get all the information about this time together.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless and keep each one of you on course, on target and on fire for Him&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pastor Henry&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-1800533097237262083?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/08/man-child-is-born-it-is-time-for-war.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

We pray those of you who read this blog on a regular basis would be able to come.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Due to our economic situation in our country we have fallen quite short of the finances we need. We have guest coming in from different parts of the world to attend this conference, but we need your help to be able to bring it to pass.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;At the present time we are in need TODAY for God to touch your heart if you are reading this blog. We need God to speak to His people today to help by sowing a seed of faith into this work of God. I know so many ministries are asking for your support. Where should you put it. My prayer is that if you have found our website and this blog, God Himself brought it to you to hear our appeal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Beloved reader go to our home page at www.flameoffire2007.org and see what God is doing through your love, prayers and giving. Read the testimonies of those whose lives are changed by the Flame of God's love and then ask the Lord if this worth you love to sow a seed of faith into.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-style: italic;"&gt;Would you consider sowing a gift seed today on our website donation link. It is located under the "support" link on the top the page. There you will find a &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Pay Pal&lt;/span&gt; link in the middle of the page. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Beloved Readers, I do not plan on writing for these type of things on this blog site. That is not what it was created for. This morning the Lord impressed upon me to write an appeal on it for this time. I pray I will never have to again if that is God's will, but I must write this today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Even if you are reading this blog for the first time, go into the archives and see if what God is speaking to us for the Body of Christ is worth supporting. Read the testimony page on our website and look at the pictures of the Flame of God in action.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I know this is a difficult time for all of us, but WE ALL CAN DO SOMETHING! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;As I have written, I hate to even write this on a blog, but I felt prompted by the Holy Spirit to make our need known to those who read this blog and trust God to touch Pastor's, Leaders and the Body of Christ all over the world to help in our time of need.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Our ministry helps to support Pastors financially, spiritually and in many other ways to do the work of God. We need the Lord's help and yours to be able to continue to have this conference be all that God intends it to be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;So Dear Beloved Readers, I am asking you to pray for us and if God would touch your heart to sow a faith seed into this ministry and into the nations God has touching, we would be so blessed and encouraged. Here is a prayer for you today and us!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Heavenly Father we have faithful readers all over the world. Many have written to me on how you have touched their hearts through our website or our conferences. Many have contacted us even to come to their countries. We can not do that without your help. King of Glory please touch those who read this blog today. We are in need of such a miracle through Your hands.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please touch our readers today as you would desire to pray and sow a seed into your Kingdom through this work. We are expecting a miracle Lord to continue to do all you have asked us to do even in this upcoming conference.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Dear King of Glory I pray a special blessing on all those who will respond to this call to sow in a time of famine. Father, as they give, cancel their debts, prosper their hands. Please bring promotion, raises and restoration to those that have need. Father, let their families be in health and prosper as their soul prospers. Let their churches be blessed and increase with your manifest presence, love, power and anointing to impact their cities for your Glory. Let the wall of separation in the churches be broken in their &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;communities&lt;/span&gt;, and let the Body of Christ come together in your love in each city.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Father, we can not do this without you. Jesus, you said, "apart from me you can do nothing." Let this blog reach the four corners of the earth. Touch your people Lord on our behalf as you have done with us for them. We are believing your economy is not the worlds economy. You taught us to "give and it will be given unto us, pressed down, shaken together, running over, shall men pour into your &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;bosom&lt;/span&gt;."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bless your family through out the world. Those who have no food today, provide their food, those that have no clothing, provide for them, those that have no hope, set them free. God bless your Pastor's and Leaders today in their churches.  Bring them divine increase even as they sow into another ministry. Please find those churches and Pastor's and people that are sensitive to your Holy Spirit. Knit us together to love one another as you have loved us.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;I am expecting my Lord that our faithful readers will rise up to the occasion and help us today. We need a miracle today mighty God for this conference. Please Oh God hear our prayer for us and all your people through out the world. In Jesus Name I pray&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Your Bond Servant, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Rev.

The dates are July 30&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt; - August 1st at &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Abundant&lt;/span&gt; Life Church in Greeley! Go to www.flameoffire2007.org and click on the link with the poster to register and for information.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Beloved, you don't want to miss this conference! This will be a life changing conference and enable you as a member of God's army for the days that are about to come upon the earth. If you are asking the Lord, "I know there is more than going to church and doing a ministry for my life," then you need to be here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;God has a plan that He is about to unfold for these last days we are living in. God has new strategies, divine weapons for us to use in this great battle that is arising in our midst. The Lord is making a Bride ready to marry Him, a full grown body that His full Headship can sit upon. This is the greatest time in the History of the Church, but only for those who have an ear to hear what the Spirit of God is saying to the church.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;There is going to be a great prophetic enabling released at this meeting to those who come. The voice of the Friend of the Bridegroom is going to arise in our midst. Are you hungry for the deep things of God? Are you hungering for more of His presence, power and purpose in your life? Than, Don't miss this gathering.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Beloved, it is dirt cheap, only a $25 registration fee to help us cover some of the cost of the conference. It is well worth it! Will you pray about it? It is not to late to come? It is not to late for God to move things out of your way to get here! It is not to late for God to help you change your plans! If you pray and allow the Lord to speak to your heart, than all things are possible.&lt;/span&gt;Rea&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;We are having a precious Apostle and Prophet from Kenya Bishop Abraham &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Omanyo&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;. He is our Flame of Fire Ambassador in Kenya and he has a present Word of the Lord in His mouth with fire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;"&gt;We are having an Apostolic/Prophetic couple, Pastor Carl and Anna Jackson, Directors of the Men's inductions Center for Teen &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;Challenge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153); font-weight: bold;"&gt; in Tucson Arizona. They have a deep abiding relationship with the Lord and will bring forth the deep in you in worship and in passion for God.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;They also will soon be our Arizona Ambassadors for Flame of Fire.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Also with us is our &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;Pennsylvania&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt; Ambassador, Diane Lawrence from her company called "Knitting for God's Kids." Sister Diane has a word of purity, holiness and fire for the Lord in her mouth.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;There will be also other ministers speaking as the Lord leads and of course Donna and I will be sharing with you as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Don't miss it! Don't miss it! Let God change your plans to be there!

The answer to this question will determine which way our nation will go. If we can bear to see the truth of how far we have fallen from the Glory that the church was born with, perhaps, we can truly come to repentance and change our lives, church and nation. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Beloved, “the spirit of religion” is killing us just as it did when Jesus walked physically on the earth 2000 years ago. That same spirit was killing &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;Israel&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; and its present leadership and it is doing the same thing today with many in our nation as well. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Yet amidst this truth there is a stirring in the hearts of many believers that there must be more to being a Christian than going to church on Sunday or doing a ministry. Many are becoming discontented with the “business as usual” mentality so many of our churches have week after week. Our whole church function is based on a time and a day to meet, then a daily committed walk in the Holy Spirit following his leading.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;For those who are being stirred and restless in the Holy Spirit for more of God realize that going to church each week is predictable and stale. They can almost predict exactly what is going to happen at our church services every time we gather to meet. These hungry ones can tell how long the service is going to be and what exactly will happen at the same time each week. Below is a typical church service in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; every Sunday,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;It starts with a person or persons standing at the door to greet you and give you a bulletin. You sit down until the worship leader comes out or the person who starts the service begins to address you. You get welcomed and are told, we are now going to start worship service. Depending on the size of the church the Worship Leader will start with at least 3 or 4 “fast praise songs.” Then there is a 2 songs of transition to get to the worship time with God. Then we sing 2 or 3 slow worship songs to bless the Lord even more and get in His presence. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Some churches “sing in tongues near or at the end of the worship if there is time left. Some churches wait for a prophetic word to come forth through the Body at the very end of this kind of worship. All the words of the songs are on the screen for everybody to sing along as well in this style of service.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Then the Pastor says a few words and then has someone read 10 minutes of announcements telling all the exciting things their ministry is doing. If the church is large, they may put the announcements like a commercial on the screen. They also might put pictures and music to it. Next it is offering time. Here we preach about Malachi 3, encourage them to give, sing another song.This takes 5 minutes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Then it is time to hear the “message!" The message is the highlight of our gathering. Most Pastors preach about what is going on in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; or some bible study topic, maybe even a series of teachings. They teach usually no more than 30 minutes to an hour. The whole &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;jist&lt;/span&gt; of the sermon is to make it “funny, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;likeable&lt;/span&gt; and real to those who come.”The people must leave entertained, which we understand to be “changed.” Are they really changed, Beloved? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Next comes the alter call to save the lost, to have the &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;backslidden&lt;/span&gt; return, or people to respond to the message given. A ministry team may come to pray over you and then after this time everyone goes home. This whole process is never more than 2 hours long.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;The question I am presenting to you dear reader is this, have we developed a relationship with God or a “dead religion?” I assert to you that this is the heart of what religion is made of. The emphasis of our whole understanding of God is this, “church is a place &lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;we go to every SUNDAY to&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt; learn about God.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Beloved, this is not God’s idea of church. Though no member of a church would disagree with my next statement and may even speak it, it is not a living reality in the hearts of the American church today. The statement i,s “we are the church, the Body of Christ.” If that is true, why is it most important thing we do is to go somewhere or do something called “church” then become somewhere and be something in Christ “the real church?”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Religion always wants you to make or do something for God. It always has to have a “type or a way to do something the same over and over again to be successful.” A relationship with God is spontaneous, living and vibrant and never the same! Religion usually reeks of death under a law of repetition instead of the law of the Spirit of Life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Beloved, the church in the &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;USA&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is powerless in comparison to the church in the Books of Acts. It is sickly according to the New Testament standard, and it is not even making an impact on our nation any more. We have taken the cross out of the churches that symbolize death to our old life and ways, and instead preached the gospel of convenience and prosperity or how to be “good people.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;There is no more preaching against sin in most churches or about coming out of darkness unless you are unsaved. But what about the sin in the church or the call to come out from the world as found in 1&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt; Corinthians chapter 6. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Would the book of James be taught in our services today? James directly speaks to the Christians in the churches under his leadership. Would the present leadership of the church in America say to our churches what is found &lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;in James 4:4?&lt;b&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; “you are like unfaithful wives having illicit love affairs with the world and breaking your marriage vow to God. Do you not know that being the world’s friend is being God’s enemy? So whoever chooses to be a friend of the world takes his stand as an enemy of God? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Where are the preacher’s of righteousness in our generation of leadership in the &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;American&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Church&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;? Are we afraid to lose the people because they will take their tithe, offerings and labor with them so we can’t build our vision?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Why is there little to no teaching about living Holy before God or what the requirements are of being His disciple? Why are there so few preachers who preach about the price of picking up your cross and following the Lord where he leads? Or about the daily surrender of walking in the Spirit so we won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Today’s American church services are built to be entertainment centers to please the needs of the people instead of the needs of God. &lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;You may be asking, Brother Henry are you not being a little critical of all of us? But I want you to read an advertisement for one of the churches in a particular area of our country, and have you discern the state or condition of the church in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is truly in. This is a real ad!!!!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;“Check out our friendly, totally relaxed, non-threatening, and yes even FUN approach to doing church.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;&lt;?xml:namespace prefix = o /&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ol style="MARGIN-TOP: 0in" type="1"&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;One hour services answering life’s’ toughest questions.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;All Original live music&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Women’s Fitness programs&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Great programs for kids, &lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;pre&lt;/span&gt;-teens and teens&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;st1:street st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:address st="on"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error"&gt;Café&lt;/span&gt;/Food Court&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/st1:address&gt;&lt;/st1:street&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="MsoNormal"  style="color:red;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;Special Events Each month&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;Fun day Sundays: BBQ: Jumping Castle Games and Events for Kids and Adults&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;Cool down Tuesdays” BBQ, Swimming, Water Games and a Live Guard on Duty, (Yes, we have a church with a waterfall” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;You will see quickly why the ____________church is one of the fastest growing churches in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. Services 9:30 and 11:00 am.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Beloved, this is a real ad coming from a real church! Did you see what it does not say? What about God? What about the cross? This is a typical ideal &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;American&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Church&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; today. The church in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; is an entertainment station at worst, and a place maybe to get saved at best. Please understand that I am not criticizing this church or Pastor, a few years ago I would have done the same thing, Yet thankfully God gave me a word of prophecy, "no longer would I build an Ishmael, but I would build and Isaac, after the kind God had truly placed in me." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;My heart weeps as I write this today. How are all the things above not about religion? A form of godliness but denying the power there of is what we have become. We get more Christians at a Christian Concert than we do going to church to pray and seek the face of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Why is our nation so messed up? Look at us the “church of the living God.” Look at what we want as a church. The church ad I read you was based upon the fact of what “do the people” want when they come to church?” I know this for certain. I attended a meeting many years ago with 300 Pastors on how to make your church grow.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;At this meeting they brought in a Christian marketing manager to give us ideas on “how to build the church.”They gave us a survey with many questions to pass out in our community. The survey asked questions like “how long would you go to a church service?” What would you like to see when you go? What things would make you comfortable? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;The man who directed this meeting glowing told us how the survey worked to build a large church. He told us about one church in the Midwest that put a bowling alley in their building after passing out this survey in his region, The people wanted a Christian bowling alley so they didn't have to breath the smoke or put up with alcohol, and now that church has over 10,000 people attending,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;What is happening to our Christians churches?&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153); FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt; Christianity has become a place to be entertained and not trained, a ritual and not spiritual, a religion and not a relationship with God.&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Everywhere I go and have our conferences, people who are really hungry for more of God come to attend. Many of these people have been Christians for years and are faithful in attending churches. Yet, when God moves in the Holy Spirit at our meetings He goes right to them and begins to minister to the deep hurts and pains in their hearts and bodies they have had for years.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Many are filled with the hurts of rejection, suffering, afflictions and sicknesses for years. They went to church Sunday after Sunday and Wednesday after Wednesday, but they were never healed or set free, how can this be in the household of God? Many never had a prophetic word spoken to them or anyone lay hands on them to be healed.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Many of them don’t even know the word of God in which to fight the enemy. So many precious saints have told me that they don’t have to bring their bibles to church anymore. They get a handout with all the preaching notes on it. Others don’t even know the Word of God to stand upon in trials; they believe that God is not powerful enough, or big enough to help them. Worse, they believe that God may not want to help them and may not even hear their prayers at all.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;I am not making this up! Travel with me and you will see that for yourself. Teenagers are cutting themselves with knives to get rid of the anger and pain in their hearts in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Christian&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;High Schools&lt;/st1:placename&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;. Many of the “types of clicks” in secular schools are in Christian schools, (skaters and emo’s) and in the church today. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;At our first Omega Generation conference last month in Greeley CO, I had to preach against what “emo’s are and do. Emo’s is name for a group of teens means “emotionals.” Emotional’s form friendship where they can be “real” with one another and allow all their emotions to come out, even bad ones, and they will still love each other. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;These young people cut themselves with knives to get rid of the pain in their hearts or anger. They often are close to being homosexuals physically and spiritually. The boys wear girl tight jeans, girly converse sneakers, girly hair and nails. This is not just in secular highs schools but in the Christian schools beloved!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Why I am writing all this? Is it to be critical of my fellow members of the Body of Christ? God forbid! This is not them, this is US! Beloved reader, We must look at “our true state” and condition as the church and a family of God in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;. This is not about we and them, but this is “us.” This is what we look like to the world and yet even worse to God Himself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;A&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;sk yourself this question today, did the Glory that came down at Pentecost ever intend to make a church like we see in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; today? Was that Glory to be reduced to something we “do” once a week on Sunday’s? Was that Glory to be reduced to doing ministry, or having a BBQ or a swimming pool? Was it to boast that we are “one of the fastest growing churches in &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;America&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;?” Was the Glory to bring us just Christian Television shows?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;What happened to Jesus Christ the Son of God? Where is He in what we have built in His name? Is His presence and Glory really in our midst when we gather together? Can we tell that He personally in our midst when 2 or more gather together? Is He really able to come and be with us when our concern is to get out of there in an hour or two?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;When will we wake up Pastor’s and Leaders and see what we are building? It doesn’t look anything like what Jesus was crucified, died and rose again for. It doesn’t look anything like we saw on the day of Pentecost and after? We look, talk, and taste exactly like the world, the difference is that&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;we are "religious” and they are not. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;So the question is this, do we have a “religion” in the church in America or a “true and genuine” relationship in Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit? I will let you and God decide the answer to the question. If this blog is getting you angry, then ask yourself why are you angry?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Hers is the New Testament standard we can compare ourselves with. Is our shadow filled with glory that people are being healed? Are we working miracles at your work place like Steven did in handing out food? Are we seeing angels come and rescue from persecution when you were thrown in prison like Paul and Silas?&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Is God using us at our Gate Beautiful to say silver and gold have I no to a lame man? Is that lame man rising up and walking in the name of Jesus? Are we selling our possessions and giving the money to all who had need as in Acts 2:42-46?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;If the answer is yes to those questions in your church or in the &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;American&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Church&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;, than you can throw this blog in the garbage. If the answer is no, and you go to church every week, pay your tithe and do your ministry but don’t see those things happening in you or your church than pay attention. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Be honest with yourself. Is Jesus Christ your first love? Are you laying your life down to do His will everyday? Are you truly a disciple of His by denying yourself, picking up your cross and following him? Do you love your house, job or family more than you love God as in Luke 14? Are you to busy to answer the call of God to truly know Him and be His disciple? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;The Pharisee’s thought by all they did everyday, and doing their ritual worship at the temple, and doing all the law of Moses they were right with God. Yet these same men couldn’t recognize the Messiah in front of them, can you?&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;They wanted to kill Jesus because he called them “brood of vipers, white washed tombs, Hypocrites!” &lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;He told them their spiritual condition and they gnashed their teeth at him, will you do that today Christian brother, sister, Pastor, Evangelist, Prophet, Apostle and teacher?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;I&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt; want to leave you with this passage of scripture in John that testifies of what this whole blog series is about. This blog series is to reveal this one question, and it is a great and deep question the Holy Spirit is asking all of us today. Do we have a “ religion that is dead”, or a “true and genuine relationship with God.” &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:100%;"&gt;Please read this passage carefully. Is God truly our Father in the &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;American&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Church&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; today? Are our ears open to His words and His desires? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;John 8: 39-44&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;They retorted, “Abraham is our Father, Jesus said, “If you were truly Abraham’s children, then you would do the WORK of Abraham, and follow His example. But now instead you want to kill Me, a man Who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. This is not the way Abraham acted.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:red;"&gt;You are doing the works of your father. They said to him, “we are not illegitimate children and born out of fornication: we have one Father, even God. Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you WOULD LOVE ME AND RESPECT ME AND WELCOME ME GLADLY FOR I PROCEED FROM GOD (OUT OF HIS VERY PRESENCE.)&lt;span style="font-size:0;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I did not come on my own authority or my own accord, but He sent me. Why do you MISUNDERSTAND what I say? It is because you are UNABLE to hear what I am saying. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;color:blue;"&gt;You are of your father, the DEVIL, and it is YOUR WILL TO PRACTICE AND GRATIFY the desires of YOUR FATHER, HE WAS A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING AND DOES NOT STAND IN THE TRUTH. For he speaks what is natural to him, a falsehood, for he is a liar and the father of all lies and of all that is false.”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;"&gt;So Beloved Reader, what is the truth? Do we have a “religion” or a relationship with God? One produces death and murder to all that is spiritual in God, the other remains abiding in the vine and brings forth good fruit that remains.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Shalom!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;color:red;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;color:red;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:11;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-600035795724760403?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/06/religion-verses-relationship-3-we-have.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

I am realizing more and more that many in the church do not have a correct understanding of Biblical repentance. This is quite important because with out the Holy Spirit of God convicting our spirit and causing us to have a true repentance, we and our nation will always stay in the condition we are in. This is true also of the church that Jesus birthed as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I pray this article will help us understand what true and genuine repentance consists of and that we would be the first ones to truly repent for ourselves, families, cities, states and nation and for the church. Please take these words to heart. They are necessary for this moment in time in the life of the church here in America.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today's article is going to be about "true" repentance. I understand what the bible says it means, but I want to talk about repentance in reality. As I look at my own life, there are still things in my heart that I know doesn't please God. There are attitudes, habits, mannerism and much more that so contradict the nature of the God I love.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As I have been listening to the Lord for myself, the church, and the nation, I realize that we must truly and genuinely repent. But what is repentance? Is it being sorry for what we have done? Does it come from feeling guilty about what we have done wrong? Is it like getting caught with your hand in the cookie job, and saying to your mom, I am sorry?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Why should we repent? Is it because we were caught in someone's eyes, our own or Gods? I believe the Lord is impressing on my spirit for a nation to repent it has to start with one. I know that may be absurd to your mind, but one person genuinely repenting can change a nation. The Lord reminded me of the prophet Daniel. This man cried and wept over his sin, his forefather’s sins and the sins of the nation. Even though he was righteous in God's eyes and highly favored, he did not see the nation’s sins as theirs and not his. He identified with the sin and the sinners and cried out to God, "We your people, this nation have sinned."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The classical definition of repentance is the feeling or act in which one recognizes and try's to right a wrong. It always includes an admission of guilt, and it also includes at least one promise or resolve NOT TO repeat the offense; an attempt to make restitution for the wrong, or in some way to try to reverse the harmful effects of the wrong where possible.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The word in the Hebrew written in the bible is from two verbs, SHUV, which means "to return", and NICKHAM meaning "to feel sorrow." So the definition in the Hebrew is to turn and feel sorrow of the wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Greek word also has a meaning. METANOIA is broken up into two words. The first is META meaning "after with." The second NOEO meaning to perceive, think differently. The compound of these two words gives us the Greek meaning, "to think differently after." It is a new afterthought, or a new way of thinking different from the former thinking that caused you to sin. What does a nation need to do to truly repent? Nothing more than one individual needs to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It seems to me that in the church the USA, we have a serious problem with repentance that changes our life completely. Many seem to believe that once we repent of our sins and receive Jesus Christ as our savior, we never need to repent again. They believe that their past, present and future sins are wiped out by praying that one prayer. Other Christians recognize the continual need to repent, but don't seem to get the results from their repentance about sin in their life.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They receive very little deliverance from the things that have plagued their life. If they do receive deliverance in an area, there are 10 more popping us in their life, they become hopeless on ever really being free. Lastly, there is the last group of Christians who don't want to repent. They feel sorry for what they have done, as being caught. The idea to truly charge, think and act differently has little place in their life. Each one of these heart conditions keeps us where we are being spiritually sick and powerless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;How does genuine repentance come? I know I need it in my own life. I too often am sorry, but sometimes stumble again and again over the same area of my life. The question is why? Have I truly repented from the sin that still springs up in my heart and life? I am asking these questions to help myself and all that are hearing begin to truly repent. I am praying for a true breakthrough in our lives that would cause us to truly "turn" to God with our whole heart and soul. I know we must turn back to God, but it must begin with "Godly repentance coming from a true Godly sorrow.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When we just say were sorry because we are caught we are not repenting. This is not the broken and contrite heart the Lord's needs to receive His forgiveness and cleansing. So what steps do we need to do, and what does God give us to help us truly repent?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Isaiah 55:7 declares, "Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts, and let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon." Beloved reader, repentance qualifies a man for pardon, but does not entitle him to it. It is a free act of God who will forgive sins even up to a thousand generations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Repentance brings pardon and forgiveness of sin. Joel 2:13 says, " Rend your heart, and not your garments, (outward change, but not of the heart) and turn to the Lord your God, for He is gracious and full of compassion, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a three-fold idea that exists in true repentance. The first is that "true "repentance must touch the intellect. True repentance brings awareness to the mind that which was done is wrong and not pleasing to God. In Mathew 21:29, the Prodigal son realizes what he has done wrong in his mind as he is eating food that pigs eat. He reasons in his mind that, at first he would not go back to his father, but then he realizes and says, "I will not, but afterward he repented and went."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The son changed his mind and TOOK AN ACTION, he went back to see his father.The second thought is that "true" repentance must touch the emotions. Paul writes to the church in Corinth his feelings when he called them to repent of their sin. 2nd Corinthians 7:9," now I rejoice, not that you were made to feel sorry, but that your sorrow led you to truly repent, for you were made sorrowful in a Godly manner, that you may receive no damage by us." When the publican was in the temple repenting it says that he beat his breast indicating a sorrow of the heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The third thought is the "true" repentance must touch your will, or your innermost being. Psalm 51:10 is an example of David's heart cry when the repentance touched his will. "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me." David knew that he not only had to say he was sorry with his mind, but with his heart, intellect and will. Verse 11 says, "Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;David writes this because he saw King Saul give lip-service repentance for his sins. Saul was afraid of the people and what they thought and his position as King. This lip service repentance of Saul caused the Kingdom to be ripped from him and the Holy Spirit removed from his life. David saw Saul then be given over to an evil-tormenting spirit. David was afraid that this would happen to him because of his broken fellowship with God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lastly, how does repentance get produced? A human being is incapable of producing it. I think this is where our true problem is in the church in the USA. We try to repent, we try to change, but we do it in our own strength. Even though we know we can't to be saved, somehow we think the little sins can be removed in our own ability to repent. We are so wrong.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have a state-wide prayer network in Arizona praying, and repenting, but we are seeing such little fruit of the change God promised for Arizona. Why? I think the question needs to be more personal. Why don't we see a greater change in our own lives, mine included? Maybe we are doing what the church did in Galatia. Paul asks a question to them in Chapter 3:1-3, " Oh foolish Galatians, (foolish Henry) who has bewitched you, (cast a spell over you,) to whom it was made clear that Jesus Christ was put to death on the cross?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Give me an answer to this question, did the Spirit come to you through the works of the law (in your own strength or goodness), or by the hearing of faith? Are you so foolish? having begun your new life in the Spirit, will you now be made complete, (mature, perfect) in the flesh? (depending on what you can do to make yourself better?)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Acts 11:18, Peter says, "then has God also granted to the gentile’s repentance onto life?" Where did the repentance come from? God! God calls us to repent by the hearing of the Gospel. The message comes with a word, Repent; the Kingdom of God is at hand. This repentance is also a gift from God because it can come only from God into a human heart.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God calls each one of us to repent over each sin in order for each one of us to feel our "inability" to repent and change in our own strength. Therefore: our true forgiveness from our sins that came from God's grace at salvation is the same grace we need to be free from every sin and hindrance in our life. We are unable to produce this, so we must receive from the Lord, the power to repent as an act of grace in our hearts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of my spiritual fathers told me to pray for the 'Gift of repentance", or the "Gift of tears". Tears meaning the fruit of a broken heart that God convicts of their sin and helps them turn from it. This same Gift of tears causes us to change our heart and mind to meet what God desires in our life, and without it, we can try to change but we will continually fail.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is where the church is in USA as well. We are sorry, but we are not pursuing the Lord until He gives the "Gift of Tears" for our own lives, families, church and our nation. Without this gift, we will continually fall short of the Glory of God, but worse we may end up strengthen the very sin we are trying to get rid of. May God today give me, you, the church in the USA, the real "Gift of tears" and turn back to the Lord our God. It just takes one, let it begin with you or I!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-8859627057150737769?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/06/religion-verses-relationship-true.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

I am attaching an article I wrote over a year ago for &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Helium&lt;/span&gt; writers club about this very topic. I felt it would bless those who need to see the difference between Christianity as working for God, "the big guy" upstairs and the true intimate relationship of Bride and Bride and Bridegroom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also wanted to show the difference between "WORKING" for God verses the Work of God in our life in developing a true relationship with God. I hope you enjoy the article and share it with those who think Christianity is trying to be good instead of dwelling in the goodness of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God bless each one of you as you read this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                    Is Christianity a religion or a relationship?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;meta equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"&gt;&lt;meta name="ProgId" content="Word.Document"&gt;&lt;meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 12"&gt;&lt;meta name="Originator" content="Microsoft Word 12"&gt;&lt;link rel="File-List" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CPASTOR%7E1%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml"&gt;&lt;link rel="themeData" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CPASTOR%7E1%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_themedata.thmx"&gt;&lt;link rel="colorSchemeMapping" href="file:///C:%5CUsers%5CPASTOR%7E1%5CAppData%5CLocal%5CTemp%5Cmsohtmlclip1%5C01%5Cclip_colorschememapping.xml"&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;

From a distance it looks just like the real thing until you get close enough to really look at it.

Wax fruit could have an artificial smell, but it has a wax type plastic texture, an artificial skin and it is hollow or empty on the inside.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;That is what the difference is between religion a true living relationship with Jesus Christ. Religion &lt;a href="http://www.helium.com/items/517262-the-difference-between-being-religious-and-being-christian" target="_blank"&gt;looks good&lt;/a&gt; from a distance. It has all the appearances of being fruit until you get up close and personal. The closer you get to it, the more artificial it becomes including when you handle it or even try to bite into it. It is impossible for it ever to be real.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;So it is with religion. Religion is based on the moral needs for men to be "good enough" to please God. They try in their own strength to be what they think they should be by going to mass, church, Bible Study or some type of "good" works. From the outside the person looks kind, generous, and devout. However, the true test is how the person is when no one is looking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Is he kind, gentle, meek, full of goodness, faith, love, joy, peace, and patience. What kind of person is he or she when they are driving or at work, home or in the supermarket? What really comes out of that person when the pressure is on? Does the person "try" to be good enough or do enough to prove their religion? Do they try to make excuses for their short comings or blame others for their problems? All of this is wax fruit.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;True Christianity is not the bumper sticker,"Christians are not perfect, just forgiven." It is much more than that. Real and genuine Christianity means to be born again after the Spirit of God. It means a regeneration happens in a persons heart where they come out of darkness into the Glorious light of Jesus Christ. In the words of the late Keith Green, "going to church makes you no more of a Christian than going to McDonald's makes you a hamburger."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Christianity is not "works" it is a new life being lived in you by the Holy Spirit. It is giving up your ways and will to God with the power of the Holy Spiritworking this in you. It is living your life no longer for yourself as the Apostle Paul's writes, " I have been crucified with Christ, nevertheless I live, but not I but Christ lives in me, and the life I now live I live in the faith OF the Son of God who loves me and gave Himself for me." True Christianity allows the life OF the Son of God to live in you and everything about you changes. It changes from living to do your will, your plans, desires, and trying to be good enough, to doing God's will for His Glory alone.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Religion allows you to keep your old life. You can live life as you please doing a few good things for God like going to church or helping someone that makes you feel good about yourself. Religion is always SELF-CENTERED and SELFISH Christianity is the absolute surrender of your life to God and is SELFLESS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"  style="line-height: normal; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;True Christianity commands that you no longer live for yourselves, but for Him who saved you and purchased you with His own &lt;a href="http://www.helium.com/items/517262-the-difference-between-being-religious-and-being-christian" target="_blank"&gt;blood&lt;/a&gt;. Yes beloved reader there is a big difference between being religious and being a true Christian, the difference being compared as a wax piece of fruit against real kind.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p  style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);font-family:arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-7375961923304550087?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/06/christianity-is-it-relgion-or.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

This conference is to teach, impart, demonstrate how to walk and live in the Glory of God and how to be a voice to the world in preparing a way for the return of Jesus.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This will be 3 days of intense training in the presence of God. Your life will never be the same. Come and learn about the "anointing" of God, the manifest presence of God and learn how to minister to Person who God is in Spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be training those who are hungry for God in their Priestly duties of ministering to the Lord Himself. How can you satisfy the longing heart of God? How do you prepare yourself to be His bride? Can I really be intimate with the Lord and become one with Him as it says in John 17.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What is Glory and why does the Glory of the Lord come and rise upon us? Can He really make me a Flame of Fire for His Glory? This conference is not your ordinary conference. This is hands on, deep work in the heart, healing, deliverance and miracles from the Glory of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please consider coming. It will be worth whatever sacrifice you have to make to come. The conference is held at Abundant Life Church in &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Greeley&lt;/span&gt; Colorado, May 28-30&lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;th&lt;/span&gt;.

This conference is not about signs and wonders or a healing revival. This conference is about the God who makes the impossible possible! The God who calls those things that are naught, as though they are!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;This conference is not about what we can do for God or even trying to do miracles in His name. This divine appointment is being with the God who knows no limit. This Glorious King who's kingdom has no end! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Beloved, we have had all the hype about miracles, signs and wonders. We have seen the miracle revival sweeping America and we praise God for that, but there is so much more. We are about to come into the most glorious miraculous time the church or the world has ever seen. God has given us a never ending supply of oil for these last of days to do the works Jesus said we would do.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The God who walked on water is our God. The God who held the sun still for Joshua to win the battle is our God. The God who sent down fire from heaven for Elijah is our God. The God who calmed the sea is our God. The God who raised Jesus Christ from the dead is our God! &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;It is time to get out of the theory of the bible and live it in reality and power. The Word of God tells us that "for this purpose was the Son of God made manifest, that He might destroy the works of the devil." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;The remnant church of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Bride to be, the Over-comers are not going to leave this earth with their tale between their legs waiting and doing rapture practice. This Glorious Bride is going to fulfill what Jesus said, "the works that I do you shall also do, and even greater works than these shall you do, because I go to the Father." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;This is our time and our destiny moment to be changed from Water to Wine.  Are you ready to be transfigured with glory? Then come to this life changing conference in Tucson Arizona. Don't let your job, money or anything else stand in the way. Pray and ask the Lord if you should be here. If He says yes, He will move heaven and earth to get you here, just believe.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;We have two special speakers to be joining our ministry team. Pastor John Sesabula from Disciples on the Move, from Kyotera Uganda, and Barbara Lisiewski CEO of Best Jets Corporation. One is called to the lost and broken in the villages and cities and Africa, the other to the nations of the world through the rich and famous.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Both of these ministers have been used in the miraculous power of God in their perspective areas.  Come and learn from these mighty saints of the Lord at this conference. Donna and I will be ministering as well during the  conference and workshops as God allows.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;We also are blessed by having a team from the Northern Colorado Regional House of Prayer with us to minister as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are in the Tucson area, or any area in the country, pray and ask God if you should attend. This will not be like any other conference you have attended before. This is our time and moment for the Glory of the Lord to fill the temple! We are that temple!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;Hope to see you all there! You can register on this websites homepage. Just click the link for the conference: use the dates as your link point!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;May God prepare your heart for a mighty outpouring of God,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your bond servant,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rev.

This love work God has birthed in our hearts is breaking forth at such a rapid pace I can hardly keep up with it. Praise God!Our God is working in ways I have never seen in the lives of those who are truly hungry for God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This rapid change has brought about a need to totally revamp our website to reflect the present heart of the Lord as He is doing in our midst.  I did not desire a website to make ourselves known or to promote "our" ministry.  This website is Holy unto the Lord to proclaim His Glory in the USA and in the nations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This website is for God's Glory alone and to share the Flame of God's love and presence with all that read it. We have a very anointed missionary Rev. Brad &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;Buscher&lt;/span&gt; who is our designer for our website. If you need a website done for the Glory of God for your personal use or business, please contact Brad by clinking on his link of &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;Zera&lt;/span&gt; Communications. He has different price plans to meet your need and budget and it is WELL WORTH IT.  I also ask you to share His company with others that might need a website done for them. They will be blessed and you will be helping a missionary and his family go to the nations as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I never could have imagined what could happen in less than one years time, but who can know the bigness of our God. As I write this I am finishing our first Flame of Fire Apostolic/Prophetic School of Missions in Greeley, Colorado. It has been the most deepest school of the Holy Spirit I have ever been involved with. The manifested Glory of God was there from the first day we started and the last day of classes. The manifest presence of God fell so heavy on our last school night we did not leave until 3 am.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Students in their 70's to their teens stayed the whole entire time with the different parts of the generations ministering to God and one another like I have never seen. We had our graduation ceremony on Thursday April 10. It officially ended at 10 pm. But the Omega Generation 30 and under stayed just to fellowship and a wave of Glory poured on us, and God ministered to the young people through the young people who came to attend the ceremony.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God healed them and set them free and with in minutes they were ministering to others in the very Flame of God and setting others free.  It is amazing! I am going to include a few pictures from our graduation and students mission trip to Tucson.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was worth the 2000 miles we drove every week to see what God has done in their lives. We will all never be the same. I am going to post their testimonies on our testimony blog on our website. Please read them, share them with your children, youth or seniors. God will touch them through the word of their testimony. Two families got healed in their relationships with one another at the Graduation Ceremony. To God be the Glory!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Our website has some neat features to it. Please check these out.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. On all the pages, you will see hundreds of pictures of what God is doing throughout AZ, CO, and the nations through this love work of the Lord. These pictures are on the right hand side.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;New Logo: Burning Bush and the picture of our decrease and the Lord's increase&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;2. On the top of the home page you will see our new logo and links and mine and Donna's picture in the background as to what God is doing. We are decreasing and God is increasing so the picture is made as a silhouette to show that very work in our lives, so the Glory of God can be seen through us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. There are new pages and links to the work of God under the network links. I will list them below:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Flame of Fire Network of Ministers&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As Pastors and Ministers have found our website they have asked to be part of the work. Please understand we are not recruiting anyone or looking to add more ministries to Flame of Fire. This is a Sovereign work of God's grace. They have sought us out to walk in the love bond relationships that I have written so extensively about on our site. The ministers who have asked to be part were told by God to do so. The Lord spoke to my heart to just call it the Network of Ministers. Our only purpose is to do what Jesus commanded, "no greater love than this, that a man lay His life down for His friends.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many today are trying to prove their "apostolic or prophetic" call by seeking out people to join their work, we have not done that. This network is not about building another organization. God forbid! This just about washing each others feet as Jesus asked us to. We have written the vision and made it plain. On the Network sites you will see an invitation to join only because so many have asked to do so. We did this to make it easier to find the information they would need to be part of this network if they choose.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;Flame of Fire Network of Prayer&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;This is not new to those of you faithful readers, but to those who are seeing our website for the first time this will be new. Again, only by the grace of God, people from all over the world, Pastors and Leaders are asking us to pray for them. I am crying as I write this in my heart. What an honor from the Lord that they would trust us to pray for them! There are so many coming in to us everyday from those who are so hurting and their families are broken that God is breaking our heart for them in intercession.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;God has blessed us by establishing two Regional Houses of Prayer in Greeley Colorado and in Tucson Arizona. Here every day teams of prayer warriors are listening to the heart of God each day and praying over every need and allowing the Lord to quicken by the Holy Spirit which need to pray for. As we pray for the one &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;specific&lt;/span&gt; one God shows us, the Lord told us we were praying for all of them under that &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3"&gt;category&lt;/span&gt;. We have had so many testimonies of God answering their prayers that we bless the Lord for His kindness and &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4"&gt;faithfulness&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Because of God's grace our website has become one of the number one sites on the google and yahoo sites listing Flame of Fire. This has caused 680 cities world wide and 70 nations to read our site. Pastor's, Churches, and other Ministries have asked us to include them in our prayers and wanted to join this "world wide" network to pray for others. Can you believe that. We Currently have over 50 churches joining us every day to pray over these needs&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;We also have almost 50 individual people who have committed themselves to pray for these request as well.&lt;br /&gt;Please click on the Internet Network of Prayer link. It is on the top under Networks, or you can click on the rotating pictures on the homepage that says Network of Prayer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Omega Generation:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;In the last year, God has used the Conferences and School of Ministry to draw in those who are 30 and under.  They are coming to our meetings and God is accelerating their spiritual growth like I have never seen. From 7 year &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5"&gt;old&lt;/span&gt;, to teenagers, to the young adults, the Fire of God is &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6"&gt;burning&lt;/span&gt; in them.  God has birthed the ones that are now coming to be known as the Omega Fire Starter Team. This team is formed by the Holy Spirit from different parts of the USA to bring the fire to this Fire Brand generation of end-time warriors:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These Young people are "flames of fire" and able Ministers of the Gospel. This outreach is to train and equip them for their end time place in the Body of Christ. They are having Omega Generation Conference in AZ, CO and will be doing so in Africa, India and Nepal soon! They are also forming Camp Omega which is a 3 week intense soaking of the youth in the Glory and Presence of the Lord and equipping to use &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7"&gt;their&lt;/span&gt; spiritual weapons to go in and possess the Land God has given them in the Spirit. I can't tell you how excited I am about this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At our last conference a 7 year old girl preached for 3 hours under the Power of the Holy Spirit and ministered to every person at our conference. The next night her and another 8 year old girl ministered for 2 hours and the Glory of God filled each one of us and a 3 year old boy stood and interceded for them for at least 3o minutes in front of them!! Glory to God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Flame of Fire Blog sites:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The blog page has been redone to reflect the three different works. The Flame of Fire Blog in which you are reading is the personal writing and equipping blog for those who are hungry for the present Word of God. The Trumpet is the blog to hear the other Prophetic voices of the Lord throughout the world that will bless all that are thirsty for more of God. The testimony blog is the place for God to touch you with His fire as He did for those who have taken time to share what God has done in their life.  Opening your hearts as you read this will release the same anointing in the reader i&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Buttons"&gt;&lt;span class="on" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_Bold" title="Bold" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 3);ButtonMouseDown(this);"&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif" alt="Bold" class="gl_bold" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;f they are truly seeking the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;The new "Resources" page:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 153);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;The new resources page is also very neat! On it you will find out how you or church who desire for this type of ministry to come to your church can reach us. Second, the two books God has given me can be found and ordered on this link. Third, we now have our conferences available to be made on CD or MP3 format. The price may seem high, but you are getting in some cases 30 &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8"&gt;Cd's&lt;/span&gt; from our workshops.  Our conferences are INTENSE, they are not your ordinary type of conference. These are wrecking times, and Holy &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_9"&gt;Reconstruction&lt;/span&gt; of the power of God in our lives. They are worth getting.  The price just covers the cost of the &lt;span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_10"&gt;Cd's&lt;/span&gt; and time to make it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also have "&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Streaming Audio" &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;available for FREE to all who want to hear a present word of God and get a sample of our Conferences and Workshops. They are jewels from heaven for you to enjoy and be transformed by the Glory of God. Please take time to listen to them and share them with your church or family as you desire!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Support Page:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;Here is where you can really help us spread the Flame of God's love to the world.

Our websites will be undergoing changes in the next month, so please be patient with us as we revamp our pages and content. The original content and design no longer reflect the great growth we are experiencing in the ministry. The new one will be more interactive and visual for you to see the Fire of God spreading to cities and nations, and it will also provide the ability to use our material for teaching and training. We soon will be able to do streaming video if you, your church or ministry would like to have one of our conferences live on TV in your church or home. Praise God forever more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are also changing our Network of Prayer to be interactive on the site as well. You will not have to print out any more pages. You can do everything from the computer. It is going to be really "high tech" for the 21st Century. We also will be adding some pages as well for some new ministries such as the Flame of Fire Network of Ministers. The Firebrand Youth Ministries and Camp Omega for the 30 and under generation! So keep looking at the site for these changes. You will also see us updating the IAM Center of Tuscon, the Tucson Regional House of Prayer sites as well!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It has so long since I have been able to write to you on this blog site. I have been traveling much lately and teaching at our Omega School of Ministry in Greeley Colorado. All I can tell you beloved, is that the Fire of God is here. We started with 16 students and are now up to 18 and two that audit the classes. There lives are transfiguring right before our eyes. I will be posting testimonies on our website soon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are in the Tucson Arizona area, I want to encourage you to come to the GLORY WEEKEND at the new headquarters of our IAM Center of Tucson and Flame of Fire Ministries. Click on the little Glory Weekend banner on the left side of our homepage to register. This is going to be a dynamic conference about ministering in and from the Glory of God!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will be having Pastor's Carl and Anna Jackson as our main speakers from Teen Challenge of Tucson. Donna and I will be sharing as well as the students of the Omega School of Ministry. We will be praying and imparting for those who are in need and hungry for more of God. So if you are ready for a revolution in your life to grow closer to Jesus and on Fire with the Holy Spirit, then come. The conference is March 26-28, 2009.  Lunch and Dinner can be purchased for a small fee. Hope to see you all there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We also have some dynamic conferences and Boot camps coming up as well in Tucson Arizona and Greeley, Colorado please check the itinerary page for details.  We will be having "The God of the Impossible Conference at the end of April with Pastor and Bishop John Ssebula from Disciples on the Move Ministries from Kampala Uganda and Barbara Lisiewski, CEO of Best Jets Corporation. These two fire brands will bring the love, healing and miracle power of God to be imparted and enable the saints to do the work of the ministry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I hope to write what God has placed on my heart for us for the 2nd part of this year very soon. Thank you for your patience. We love each and every one of you from the 40 countries and 700 cities that view our website. God bless you, and please remember to send us your prayer needs.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Your Bond Servant in Christ,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rev.

As many of you know we started a 12 week &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Apostolic-Prophetic&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;School&lt;/st1:placetype&gt; of Ministry in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Greeley&lt;/st1:city&gt;, &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;Colorado&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; in January. We are coming now up to our 5th week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I travel 2000 miles a week to teach at this school, but the investment is worth it. The students range from 17 to the 70's and they are growing in an accelerated pace in the love and knowledge of the Lord. This is the third year of schooling we have started, &lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;and I must say I have never seen such a move of the Holy Spirit so quickly in a class in a school year. What normally takes 2 to 3 months to do in a student's heart, He did in 2 weeks!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are living in a time of the most "rapid" growth in the Spirit in those who are truly hungering and thirsting after God. I am amazed at what God is doing in establishing His kingdom in their hearts. God is raising up the most radical on fire generation of worship warriors this world has ever seen. This Omega generation of believers will be nothing like we have seen in the past.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;They will not accept the old ways of the &lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"traditions of men."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt; They will not accept "doing or going" to church. They are becoming a &lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"church"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;, &lt;b&gt;a Holy Spotless Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ. They have a different passion, hunger and a capacity for the "deep things" of God like I have never seen&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, the student's are learning in days what took me 15 years to learn in the Spirit! I have seen this "quickening" in every age group from as young as 3 years old to 83! God is truly no respecter of people. Young and old alike are receiving the promise found in the book of Joel chapter 2&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;Joel 2:28 And after that, it will come about, says the Lord, that I will send my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will be prophets, your old men will have dreams, your young men will see visions: Joel 2:29 And on the servants and the servant-girls in those days I will send my spirit.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, what God is doing now, and about to do will make all the last revival movements in the last 100 years seem like trickles of water in comparison to that which is to come. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;The Lord, the Omega God, is here in our midst. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;He has come to "finish" the work He has started. We have entered into the last 20 minutes of spiritual time in the "Anointing of the Moment."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the book with the aforementioned title, the Lord impressed upon me that those who had ears to ear were about to enter a period of time called, "the anointing of the moment." This time would be a spiritual hour for us to prepare for the "hour" that is about to come upon the whole earth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This hour would be made up of three distinct 20 minutes seasons of preparation. The first would be called, "the wake up call!" This would explain and awaken those who hear what the Spirit of God says to the church about the "present work of God" found in Revelation chapters 1-3. This first 20 minute period would show us our "true state" of life before our King as it "really" is and cause a Spirit of Tears and brokenness to come to the church so we can change."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This first 20 minutes would show us a "way out" of our present situation through a bridge called the &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"Anointing of the Moment,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; so we can cooperate with the Holy Spirit and come out of the 2nd day into the third day of the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;"true Sabbath Day Rest,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; found in Hebrews chapters 3 and 4. The first 20 minutes begins with a voice that sounds like &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"many waters"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; coming from behind us to turn around to see Jesus as He really is today as John did in Revelation chapter 1.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The second 20 minute period is called,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "The Highway of Holiness,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; and is now operating in those who have heard the call of the first 20 minutes.  This period of time is for us to come and live, move and dance in the very Flame of God's Holy presence to be refined like Gold and Silver.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This period of time is to allow the&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; Spirit of Burning and Judgment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; to come to very House of the Lord, US! This it the time that we learn to buy the Gold tried by fire in Revelation chapter 3. It is the time we see and hear the Lord Jesus Christ standing on the outside of our hearts, knocking at our door, as He waits for us to let Him in to sup with us and us with Him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The final 30 minutes of preparation time is called,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "Transfigured with Glory!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;" This time is just about to begin now. This period of time is for those who have entered the first two periods of preparation time and our now ready for the "Come up here," found in Revelation chapter 4. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;These people are now ready to fulfill the word of God found in Hosea chapter 6 verse 3, "but on the third day, He will raise up that we will live before Him." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the OMEGA GENERATION BRIDE OF CHRIST! This will be a people who are prepared for His Glory. This is an end-time prophetic army that will be a voice crying in the wilderness, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"prepare ye the way of the Lord."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; This will be a bride&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "coming forth"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; from the wilderness leaning on her beloved."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the book of Revelation chapter 3 we read an exhortation to the church in Philadelphia to hold on to what they had of the Lord to save them from the "hour" that was to come upon the whole earth. Beloved we must be ready for the return of the Lord Jesus Christ and the establishment of His Kingdom on the Earth. He is giving us time to make our selves ready. Listen to His admonishment in Revelation chapter 3.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;Rev 3:6 He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches. Rev 3:7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia say: These things says he who is holy, he who is true, he who has the key of David, opening the door so that it may be shut by no one, and shutting it so that it may be open to no one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rev 3:8 I have knowledge of your works see, I have put before you an open door which may be shut by no one, and that you have a little strength, and have kept my word, and have been true to my name. Rev 3:9 See, I will make those of the Synagogue of Satan who say they are Jews, and are not, but say what is false; I will make them come and give worship before your feet, and see my love for you.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;Rev 3:10 Because you have kept my word in quiet strength, I will keep you from the hour of testing which is coming on all the world, to put to the test those who are on earth. Rev 3:11 I come quickly: keep that which you have, so that no one may take your crown.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;Rev 3:12 Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the house of my God, and he will go out no more: and I will put on him the name of my God, and the name of the town of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my new name. Rev 3:13 He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;In verse 10 we read that the Lord will keep you from the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;"hour of testing"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; which is coming on the whole world. Beloved, I am not sure if you understand what is happening. In less than a half of a year, the American economy went into the tank. The world's economy has also gone into the tank, and the leaders of the nations don't know what to do. They are not even telling you how bad things really are. We just passed a bill for how many "trillion" dollars worth of bailout money?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;In just the last 6 months, banks have failed, companies went broke, over 600,000 people lost their jobs in the &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;USA&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; last month alone. The &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"hour of testing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;" is drawing so very close, and we the church are hardly ready for what is to come. We are still trying to figure out if there are still Apostles and Prophets in the church today? We are still arguing over whether there is a Baptism of the Holy Spirit or not? We are still fighting and competing against one another for the "biggest, baddest" church in the city. All the while, the end of all things is drawing near. We are doing our "rapture" practice" in our closets waiting for Jesus to take us out of here.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Before this day comes the Lord spoke to my heart, there would be an "anointing of the moment" coming upon those who have an ear to hear what the Spirit of God says to the churches? There would be a time of preparation to get us ready for this last hour of spiritual time. The Lord spoke to my heart that this &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"anointing of the moment&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;" would be a bridge between two spiritual time and place..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It would be a bridge between the 2nd and third prophetic days of the church age. A day is like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day. From Jesus resurrection to 1000 AD was the first day. From 1000-2000 AD the second day, but starting somewhere in the 2000's, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"THIRD DAY"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; would begin to come forth. The Third day is so significant to the understanding God wants to bring to His people in the time we are living in.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just as there is now &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;2 days&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; are happening at the same time. As I write this blog, it is February 20, 2009, but at the same time in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Johannesburg&lt;/st1:city&gt;, &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;South Africa&lt;/st1:country-region&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; it is already February 21. Two days are functioning together at the same time. Why is this significant? Because your spiritual hunger for the Lord is going to determine which day you live and stay in&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Let me say what God spoke to me. The 2nd day people can come into the third day, but the third day people can never go back to the 2nd day. The second day of the church is the present church in the present state we are in. We go to church on Sunday morning or Saturday evening. If we are spiritual, we go Wednesday night. If we are really spiritual, we do a ministry in the church. If we are even more spiritual, we may even take someclass and be a ministry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We do all these things everyday, yet we still keep total ownership of our life. We continually make our own choices, plans and decisions and very rarely consider God's plan and will for our life. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;This second day church, has some truths restored to it from the past. However; the people in the church hardly know His voice for themselves, or their calling and are mostly dependent upon the Pastor to do everything for them instead of growing in God.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The third day has no such tolerance. In the third day, we are empty pots ready to be filled with fresh water like in John chapter 2. We are the empty clay pots ready to be filled to the brim in John chapter 2, the wedding at &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Cana&lt;/st1:place&gt;.  At that wedding beloved, a miracle takes place that is most strange. Jesus doesn't heal anyone, feed anyone, or even preach. What does He do? He tells his mother,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "my time has not come yet, why do you bother me?"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; His mother in turn tells the servants, "whatever He tells you to do, do it."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;J&lt;b&gt;esus commands 6 empty clay pots that were set apart for purification to be filled with water to the brim. Then He tells the servants to draw &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"some out," &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;and bring it to the Master of the house. While they were on the way, the water changes into wine! When the Master of the House taste it, He say all the other save the most expensive wine first then give people the "cheaper" wine, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;but you "have saved the best for last."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;What does Joel prophesy say? That in the last days &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;"it shall come to pass"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; I will pour out my spirit upon &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"all flesh."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;" Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; There is a present work that the Holy Spirit must do in the church to change her from water to wine in a twinkling of eye! When did the water change into wine, after it was &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"drawn out."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beloved, that is what I see happening in every nation. God is &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"drawing out"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; those who have an ear to hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches. They are being &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"set apart"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; for the Holy, Noble purposes of the Lord Himself! They are being drawn out, because they are praying the prayer of the Shumunite woman found in Song of Solomon chapter 1:4,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"Draw me, and we will run after you, O King, bring me into your chambers."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;This drawing out is the cooperation that the believer must give to the Lord as God's refining fire comes to purge and clean them as found in Malachi chapter 3:1-4.  The Lord has come to sit on the throne of our heart to purify the Son's of Levi, to bring to Him offerings of righteousness.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To all those that are spiritually hungry for the &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"more of God,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; this is a welcomed process. There is a desire in the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"Bride to be,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; to be a bride without wrinkle or spot pleasing to her King. There is a new hunger and desire for this purity to come about not to be holy in her own righteousness, but to be pure &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"just for Him." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;There is a welcoming of this &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"flame of God,"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; to come into the heart as that&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "refining fire and fuller soap"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; in those who are desiring to be His Bride.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The prayer in Song of Solomon of &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"Draw me, we will run after you, O King bring me into your chambers," &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;is the cry of a&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "new kind of accelerating prayer"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; that  is needful, and gives the Holy Spirit permission to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"hasten"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; the work of the Fire of God in a believer's life." This prayer creates a new passion and hunger in a soul that will desire  God to allow the "quickening" of the TRUTH (Rhema WORD) of God to "accelerate" the (character and nature of Christ) in the believer as well.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are seeing this process happen with our own eyes with children as young as 7-14 years old. These young ones are living and walking in the Spirit of God and desiring the deep things of God. I just received a word from the nation of &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Nepal&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; where a 14 year old boy is preaching and pasturing a church already. I believe this! I have watched a 7 year old girl preach with power for 2 and half hours, while everyone in the congregation was in tears and on their faces. &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have seen a 14 year old boy in &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Tucson&lt;/st1:city&gt;  &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;Arizona&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; lead a prayer service for 4 hours, weeping and crying in Spanish to God, &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"that this is time for our generation to take its place."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; This same young man brought His friends and about 40 more youth at this service into the very &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"flame of God" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;for them to repent to God, to their parents and be ignited in the flame of Holiness of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So powerful was this meeting that the young man prophesied to 5 pastors that were in attendance.These 5 Pastors fell on their faces and cried, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Santos&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;" or "Holy"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; in Spanish for at least an hour. There was such a sense of awe in these meetings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;Greeley&lt;/st1:city&gt; &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;Colorado&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;, I watched a 12 year old boy named Joshua lead a prayer meeting for almost 3 hours with one cry of travail in his heart,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt; "open up their eyes Lord, you are the way, the truth and the life." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;I saw a 14 year old girl named Rachel, prophesy and preach a work of repentance to all of us to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"put away our idols and stop lying to God."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;I saw a 10 year old boy name Ryan lead us in the purest worship in Spirit and Truth, and His two brothers Robert and Randy, teach, preach and prophecy in the power of the Holy Spirit for 2 days at this conference. God poured through many other young people at this conference as well. They ministered to their parents and grand-parents in the power of God.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Another proof of this acceleration was seen at our last conference in &lt;st1:city st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Greeley&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:city&gt;, when I saw 17 and 18 year old people minister to others in Fire and Power in the Holy Spirit. Right on the spot, the Lord allowed me to train and equip them in the activation of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. They ministered to the people like seasoned pros, and were able to do and speak things that took me 20 years to learn, Praise God! That was not even the best part!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The best part was that the Flame of God made them cry out for a deeper work of the Holy Spirit in their lives, and they are now in the &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Omega&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Generation&lt;/st1:placename&gt;  &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;Training School&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; preparing themselves as a Bride for the Lord. They are getting ready to take their place in this end-time work of the Lord. Yet, there is more. The people they prayed over and were set free, guess what? They are also enrolled in the school and our being changed, transformed and equipped for their end-time work and a Bride for the Lord.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;PRAISE HIS NAME FOREVER!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&lt;b&gt;n our &lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Omega&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placename st="on"&gt;Generation&lt;/st1:placename&gt; &lt;st1:placetype st="on"&gt;School&lt;/st1:placetype&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt; of Ministry, we have seen the generation from 17-30 catch of fire with His presence. They are beginning to be a &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"voice"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; crying in the wilderness prepare ye the way of the Lord. The fire of God's presence comes forth from this simple prayer of desire, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"draw me."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;This prayer is igniting a new passion and holiness in the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"hungry ones for more of God" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;like never before, and they are coming out from under the powers and principalities that have ruled over their region. They are learning to see and know the living God. They are being prepared to be a "voice" to the church in their region, and learning to serve their, "little sister" as found in Song of Solomon chapter 8:8-9.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;In the 30 and over generation, God is causing such a &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;Spirit of repentance&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; to come to this age group, and a new understanding of what we have built as &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"church"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; for this present age must change. They are gaining a new understanding of what Jesus said, "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;My house is a house of prayer, but you have made it a den of thieves."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; The older believer's in their late 60's and over are beginning to see their destiny to become &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"true spiritual mothers and fathers"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; to this Omega Generation that is rising to their feet.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Beloved reader, This is going to be the &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;MOST GLORIOUS DAYS&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; the church has ever seen. The Bride is making herself ready as in Rev 19:7. This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The time of divine choice is upon each and everyone of us. We must decide and answer this question, "who is on the Lord's side?" Will we continue to do and live as business as usual in the church? Will we as Pastors say we don't want to do business as usual, but do it anyway? We say we want change, but will we allow the Fire of God to test what we are building to see if it passes the test? Will we make a"resting place" for the Lord as found in Isa. 66:1?&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If we say yes to God personally or as the Leader of our church or ministry, then we can allow the very flame of God's refining to come to our life or ministry and enter&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt; "the Hour of Preparation" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;that is at hand. We must enter into these 20 minutes spiritual of minutes of preparation time now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must enter the first period of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"the call of the Anointing of the Moment" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;to understand what the present work of the Lord is doing in the church. We must cry out the "draw me" prayer that will allow us to enter into the second 20 minute period and find the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"Highway of holiness."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; In this period we must allow the flame of God to change us from the inside out. Then we enter the last 20 minutes of preparation called, "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;Transfigured with Glory."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; This is our spiritual place of rest now ready for the end-time work of the Lord."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We must enter in now to this &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"accelerating flame of God"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; that will burn up all that is not like Christ, but at the same time allow the accelerated work of the Holy Spirit  to bring forth the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);"&gt;"true and genuine"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt; character and nature of Christ in our life. The world is about to see the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:red;"&gt;"glory of our arising" &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:black;"&gt;as prophesied in Isa. 60. This Glory of God is to live and be seen in us, and it will prepare us as a people prepared for His Glorious return to rule and reign with Him forever.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Let us make the right choice this time, and not miss our hour of visitation as &lt;st1:country-region st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Israel&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:country-region&gt; did at the time of the coming of Christ. Let us not look for another revival, but the Spiritual Revolution that is found in Revelation chapters 1-5 and the work that is about to come hereafter. Let us be like Abraham, who was looking for a city not of this world, but whose architect and builder was God&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Shalom!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-7423768850698415600?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/02/accelerating-fire-part-one.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.

I want to report to you about our gathering together in the Lord at Greeley Colorado for our first conference of the year. What an exciting visitation of God. The Holiness and Majesty of the Lord was in our midst. We had a deep rich presence of God in our workshops and our Encounter God times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The workshops were a time of intense teaching from the Holy Spirit. The Spirit of Tears came in our midst as we repented of out lack of intense prayer God has to pray. Many were changed from the inside out. We learned much strategy during this time from God and how to be effective Intercessors of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the evenings we came to meet with the Lord and His presence was a thick as molasses in the room. The gathering of believers didn't need a prompt or push to worship. I didn't even sing a song at one of the meetings. I just played prophetically on my keyboard, and they came to the front to worship without a song to sing, an overhead projector, or a book to look at. They just came to the drawing power of the Lord.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Lord's manifest presence stayed throughout the meetings. At one such night after a 4 hour time of worship and hearing a present word of the Lord, His presence just lingered over us. Many left to go home, but the Lord stayed. He was waiting for us to acknowledge His presence in our midst. I just felt His presence ask me, "will you stay, will you stay." I answered, I promised you I would always stay.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many others just stayed and loved Him lavishly! Then I felt the Spirit of Travail and birthing come upon me. I wept and wept. Many others also got the same spirit of travail for birthing, so we all gave birth in the Spirit to what God desired. When that birthing lifted, I turned to a Sister and tried to speak English and only the Heavenly languages of tongues came out. For 2 hours I spoke only in Tongues and the interpretation came through others, one right after another. It was a deep rich word that burned in those God spoke to.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I asked the Lord, why can't I speak in English? He replied, " If I speak in English, they will take this word as "just another prophecy." They would make this work of the Holy Spirit common because they are used to the gift of prophecy." They have forgotten to honor every word I speak as Holy, so I have to come and speak in another tongue so they will reverence the words I am giving them."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;What a mighty word from the Lord for all of us. His Holy Fire burned in our midst that we all had to take our shoes off standing on Holy Ground. Spontaneous worship and praise erupted in our midst. People waved banners, and danced in the Flame of God. Others wept and washed His feet with tears. Other's spoke and sang new songs in the Holy Spirit. What a time with the Lord. My writings are doing no justice at all to what God did in our midst. It was truly the experience of the height, width, length and depth of God's love in our midst.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have added some pictures so you can get a little taste of what the Lord is doing here in Greeley Colorado, " my house shall be a house of prayer for the nations." &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/DSC00398-740955.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 236px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 212px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/DSC00398-740444.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 244px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 207px; CURSOR: hand" border="0" alt="" src="http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/uploaded_images/DSC00377-786402.JPG" /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3843714116023235895-7745886262060207969?l=www.flameoffire2007.org%2Fblog' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://www.flameoffire2007.org/blog/2009/01/seated-in-heavenly-places-conference.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Rev.
