Walking it out

You think because you know something with your head you know it. But until you walk it out it is not yours. Make the Word Yours! Do not hesitate to trust the Word, to trust Our God's Character, and His INTENTIONS for you. Even in the face of extreme pressure, trust Him. He will bring you through. This is my exhortation to you from UK. It is true where ever you are. HE IS FAITHFUL.
Much Love-
Nancy

It is time for visitation in our land

America America how oft I would have drawn you to Myself, yet you would not! (Mat. 23:27 paraphrased for America)

Oh land of freedom's door,
where hearts don't have to roam anymore
where roots can grow strong and free
Only if they're found in ME!

America Your Eagle almost died
so too withers your Patriotic Pride
Have you forgotten what makes you to be
The Land of the Brave and Home of the Free?

Your freedom is found in My Hand
With My Blessing You'll continue to stand
But if you forget that you belong to Me
men will take you into captivity.

America you have a Purpose and Destiny
I ALONE hold that key
Open your eyes and see
The only entrance is found in ME.

Even as the Eagle once again does soar
So too I stand at your hearts door.
Lift the latch - let ME in
I will cleanse you from all your National sin.

Even as people worked together to save the Bald Eagle- so too CHURCH OF THE LIVING GOD we must work together to Save America! Save her from the way of Balaam, who taught Balak how to trick and seduce Israel so she would turn her back on God and fall. Make no mistake this is not about politics or church as usual or black or white. It is about Godliness and Righteousness being restored or the foundations being destroyed. God spoke to Israel while they were in the wilderness and said "I have set before you Blessing or Cursing, Life or Death. Therefore Choose Life!" America the choices you are making are truly Life or Death for some here and now and for countless untold in our future.

2Ti 3:1 But understand this, that in the last days will come (set in) perilous times of great stress and trouble [hard to deal with and hard to bear].
2Ti 3:2 For people will be lovers of self and [utterly] self-centered, lovers of money and aroused by an inordinate [greedy] desire for wealth, proud and arrogant and contemptuous boasters. They will be abusive (blasphemous, scoffing), disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy and profane.
2Ti 3:3 [They will be] without natural [human] affection (callous and inhuman), relentless (admitting of no truce or appeasement); [they will be] slanderers (false accusers, troublemakers), intemperate and loose in morals and conduct, uncontrolled and fierce, haters of good.
2Ti 3:4 [They will be] treacherous [betrayers], rash, [and] inflated with self-conceit. [They will be] lovers of sensual pleasures and vain amusements more than and rather than lovers of God.
2Ti 3:5 For [although] they hold a form of piety (true religion), they deny and reject and are strangers to the power of it [their conduct belies the genuineness of their profession]. Avoid [all] such people [turn away from them].

It is TIME! Time to wail between the porch and altar! Time to Repent for your slothfulness, your blindness, your selfish ambition for the "good life" at any cost! America you were and are blessed to BE a Blessing, not a purveyor of self exaltation, but of God exaltation.

America, America you who kill Prohets and stone those sent to you while in the form of helpless babies... their voices rise up to ME and fill the skies. How much longer can I avert MY eyes?
I see what you do not yet see... the beginning of the end if there is no repentance found in thee.

Repent! Cry aloud! Spare not! Turn and I will heal your land and once again Ameica will be Grand.

Prophetic Exhortation

Today at Intercessory Prayer we started out by praying for God's Plans and Purposes to be established in and throughour pastors and the local Body there. We had purposed to pray against spiritual stupor and against bondage and addictions over the area. As we were praying this is what God had me pray:

Awake to Righteousness! Awake! Awake to Righteousness. The time of "nice sunday meetings" is past. It is time for the Body to arise. The time is now. Arise! Awake to Righteousness. Remember your foundation and roots America! You were founded as a Christian Nation. It has been said by leadership in government that we are no longer a Christian Nation. I declare you ARE a Christian Nation America! Return to your Identity. Return to your Foundation.

Paul Revere rode all night to sound the alarm; "The British are coming, the British are coming!" People took note and it galvanized them into action. It is time to sound the alarm the enemy is here, he is trying to destroy America! He is trying to tear down her foundation. Don't let him. Apostles and Prophets sound the alarm. Cry aloud! Prophecy! Awake O army of God! Get in place. Align your self. Keep Rank! Take your place. Do not be awol. There is no time for stragglers! Get into place! Pick up your armour, weapons. America you are too young to die! Come back to your roots.

My heart then cried within myself:
Israel do not forget your Identity! You were called with a purpose and a place, to Glorify God.

Uganda- you are called to Honor God and serve Him!

Britian- you who instituted a State Religion and so rigidly refused to give place to the moving of God's Spirit- that is what caused the rebels to come to America! Give place to God in your land! Return to God England! Other nations- you may not hae been founded for a godly purpose- but God has a purpose and plan for you. He will have a remenant of every tongue and tribe upon Earth. I call you forth!

I say now: Awake to Righteousness. Awaken to God! Come forth from among them. Leave the ashes and the deceitful promises of this World's system. Stand up and be counted as Saints of God. Let God Arise let His enemies be scattered. Arise in us O God. Arise in Your body and let us scatter Your enemies with the force of light and anointing that You have placed on us. Arise O God! Be magnified. Have Your way and Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Make us One Lord! Take away all that divides and hinders. Bring forth your Body Lord. Let Your Glory Fill the Earth. Let it begin in me!

Anticipation

Anticipation: The act of looking forward; especially pleasurable expectation. Visualization of a future event or state.

Anticipate: transitive verb: to give advance thought, discussion, or treatment,
to meet (an obligation) before a due date, to foresee and deal with in advance, forestall, to act before (another) often so as to check or counter, to look
forward to as certain : expect

I leave for London in 5 days. There is great anticipation on all fronts.
My son Ola can hardly wait for my arrival, as can my beautiful daughter in love Adele. The grand kids are excited. My Dad is anticipating a great move of God when I minister in the churches I'll be speaking in. I am expecting God!

I am thinking of that little chorus my friend Karen taught me years ago:
I anticipate the inevitable, supernatural, intervention of God.
I expect a miracle, I expect a miracle, I expect a miracle!

Are you expecting God? Like King David, do you expect to see
the Goodness of God in the Land of the Living?
Are you visualizing the answer(s) to your prayers?
Are you looking forward with certainty? Or dread?

Do you know God also looks forward with anticipation?
He visualizes how things are going to be and speaks about
them as if they already are, and calls them into being.

He tells us to do the same; calling those things
that be not as though they ARE.
Put Your "Expecters" on!
Start expecting GOD to show up on your behalf.

My own Psalm of Thanksgiving to the King

Psa 24:7 Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.

Psa 24:8 Who is this King of glory?
The LORD strong and mighty,
the LORD mighty in battle.

Psa 24:9 Lift up your heads, O ye gates;
even lift them up, ye everlasting doors;
and the King of glory shall come in.


Gates where my children will speak for me
Gates of supposed authority
Gates where some try to look down on me

Bars on doors and gates locked too
will never keep the King of Glory
from riding through.

Lift up your heads
and bow your knees
God's Word has all authority!

Facts are facts
not necessarily True
In a moment they can change on you.

God never changes
His Word forever true
Grab hold of the Promises He's spoken to you.

Lions do roar
and elephants bellow
"Believe God's Word you foolish fellow!"

Speak it now
with loud confidence
See your enemy cringe and wince.

No weapon that's formed
can prosper against thee
when you speak God's Word faith-fully.

God is His Word and His Word is He
Unchangeless and matchless in Beauty
the same throughout all Eternity.

There is NONE like THEE Oh Lord
Who holds the keys of Life and Destiny
My heart is set, my eyes are fixed on Thee.

My head is lifted up
The gates of my life are open wide
Come in King of Glory, come and reside.

Prophet Gene's Gleanings: A Prophetic Word on the Spirit of Rebekah

Prophet Gene's Gleanings: A Prophetic Word on the Spirit of Rebekah

A Must read!

Whatever!

Said with a sigh... eyes rolled, hand flapping- "Oh What- ever!"

Interpretation varies: Don't pick! You bore me.
Shut up already! Can't be bothered.

Connotation: Indifference, insolence, disrespect.

I chuckle thinking, God is the Originator of "Whatever"
and most people don't even know it!
What? You don't believe me? It's true! Look:

Job 41:11 Who hath first benefited me, that I should repay him? whatever is under the whole heaven is mine.

Gen 18:19 For I have known him, so that whatever he may command his sons and his house after him, even they may keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice; to the intent that Jehovah may bring on Abraham that which He has spoken of him.


Mat 7:12 So then, whatever you desire that others would
do to and for you, even so do also to and for them, for this is
(sums up) the Law and the Prophets.

Mat 16:19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you bind (declare to be improper and unlawful) on earth must be what is already bound in heaven; and whatever you loose (declare lawful) on earth must be what is already loosed in heaven.

Mat 21:22 If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer."

Mat 28:18 And having come near, Jesus spake to them, saying,
`Given to me was all authority in heaven and on earth;
Mat 28:19 having gone, then, disciple all the nations, (baptizing them--to the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,
Mat 28:20 teaching them to observe all, whatever I did command you,) and lo, I am with you all the days--till the full end of the age.'

Mar 10:21 And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, One thing lackest thou: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross .

Mar 11:23 Verily I say to you, that whosoever shall say to this mountain, Be thou taken away and cast into the sea, and shall not doubt in his heart, but believe that what he says takes place, whatever he shall say shall come to pass for him.

Luk 12:2 Whatever is covered up will be uncovered, and every secret will be made known.
Luk 12:3 So then, whatever you have said in the dark will be heard in broad daylight, and whatever you have whispered in private in a closed room will be shouted from the housetops.

Joh 15:14 Ye are my friends if ye practise whatever I command you.

1Co 10:31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatever ye do, do all things to God's glory.

Gal 6:7 Do not be deceived and deluded and misled; God will not allow Himself to be sneered at (scorned, disdained, or mocked by mere pretensions or professions, or by His precepts being set aside.) [He inevitably deludes himself who attempts to delude God] For whatever a man sows, that and that only is what he will reap.

Eph 6:8 You well know that whatever right thing any one does, he will receive a requital for it from the Lord, whether he is a slave or a free man.

Phi 4:8 For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them].
Phi 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever wins respect, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovable, whatever is of good repute--if there is any virtue or anything deemed worthy of praise--cherish the thought of these things.
Phi 4:8 Finally, my friends, keep your minds on whatever is true, pure, right, holy, friendly, and proper. Don't ever stop thinking about what is truly worthwhile and worthy of praise.

1Jo 5:4 For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

Whatever!

God's got it covered- trust His Character, His Word, His Ways.

Next time the devil comes to steal kill and destroy,
tell him, Whatever! You are STILL defeated and I STILL
take authority over you in Jesus Name. Now git!

Whatever AMEN!

What is YOUR plumb line?

What the heck is a plumb line anyway? And do I need one? And how do I use it? Good questions. Let's look and see.

A plumb line is a cord that has a weight tied to the bottom of it. It is especially helpful in carpentry work, to make sure a wall is not slanted but perfectly perpendicular. A cord with a weight tied to it... hmmm makes me think of some other things... like an anchor. Like being tied together in Love. Like What the Lord spoke in Jer. 31:3 (Darby) Jehovah hath appeared from afar unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love; therefore with loving-kindness have I drawn thee. Or in Hosea: Hos 11:4 I drew them with cords of a man, with bands of love, and I was to them as one who lifts up and eases the yoke over their cheeks, and I bent down to them and gently laid food before them.

Plumb lines help you to measure and keep to the true pattern of things. We can have an anchor for our soul. One that will hold firm when the winds of adversity assail us. We do have a cord of love that draws us and points us to the true. Jesus is our anchor, the Bishop of our souls. His word is our plumb line. It does not matter how dire the situation. God's Word is still TRUE. It does not matter how awful the report. His Word is the report of the Lord for my life! It does not matter how dark the night, how long the tunnel, how fierce the storm, how loud the voices. Our God reigns! He sits in the heavenlies and he roars - laughing his enemies to derision. He has made us well able to face 9 ft. giants and walled cities that want to lock us out of His promises.

At one point King David cried out: " [What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living! " (Psalms 27:13 Amp) Indeed! What would have become of him, or you or I if we did not believe to see God show up in our midst and by showing up, putting everything to rights.

I can hear some saying, : "Yes, but..." Throw those buts away! Don't pollute yourself with them. Give no place to the devil, no arena in which he can work. every time a "Y.B." (yes but) comes up put it right into the trash can and speak the Word out loud instead! Find a promise and hold on and don't let go!

David later said, " Psalm 37:25 (AMP) "I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the [uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread." He is no respecter of persons. So put your faith out there. Draw your sword, hang the plumb line and stand with your shield of Faith raised.

Facts may say one thing, but God's Word is the Truth.
Facts might declare a downturn, but God's Word declares
we are the head and not the tail.
Above only and not beneath.
Facts can change, but the Truth is Eternal, forever settled in Heaven. Selah!

On Becoming Invisible (Get Lost in the Sweetness of This Word!)

Pilfered from Gene's Gleanings with much joy. Thanks my friend for sharing!

How to become Invisible

Your sin stands out perhaps to all around you, but to God you are so hidden in Jesus the Christ that you are invisible.

Your failures may seem impossible to ignore but when Father God sees them he reweaves them into all things working together for good so they are unseen, invisible.

When the spotlight of accusations come, difficulties, distress, God's glory comes and overshadows them with His brilliance. They become invisible in His light that outshines the sun.

You are invisible to the devil when you walk in HIS righteousness and not your own.

You are invincible, and when you fold yourself into His ways, you become just like Him.

Invisible to all but His love.

Calling All Warriors!

Hello Beloved Warriors,

I awoke yesterday morning from a dream. I can only recall part of it, but the gist is that I was privy to some very confidential information about our military and had actually met with some very high up ranking commanders. They spoke of ( or I discerned) a covert operation about to take place. I saw the "base" if you will, it was in a very odd place - looked more like a swamp than anything else! It was right out in the open, like right under our noses, but if we did not know what it was for, one might think it was just a little docking place.

My first thought was to pray for our physical military,
and indeed I did put that forth to some. But then
another thought came to mind:

It was not just the physical military of the USA,
but it had to do with the Spiritual Army of the Lord.
Especially the part about being right under the nose
in plain view but unrecognized. God definitely takes the foolish,
weak and base things to confound the wise!

In one of the earlier blog posts, God was speaking about
His Bride being an Agent of Change.

Change must come from the spirit realm first to affect the natural.
But you know that. That is why the call to intercession.
We are the spies, setting up a listening post and
it will be revealed as to what is about to take place...for ill or good.

So then we will know how to pray and position ourselves.
Thank God, Jesus ALWAYS leads us in His Train of Triumph!

My Dad is An Apostle/Prophet to the Body. When I shared the dream with him at the end of the day (first time we got to talk) below is what he wrote to me:

Hello daughter,

Yes the Commander in Chief is making plans. But it is our Commander. The Generals are being called before the throne, reservists are being called up, those that thought they were retired are being re-activated. It starts with the remnant. This will be a war like no other. The army I have been praying about since 1990 is at hand. This is one reason that the Hispanic congregation is joined with us. God is moving in a mighty way. It is why doors have opened to you again towards Africa, but first the UK. This job that I am at is a temporary thing because preparation must be made and the funding provided. The prayer group I have been praying with on Saturdays is a part of this.

There are strategic gatherings all over the world as the Commander brings His army into the open. The current storm we are in is part enemy, part cleansing of the Bride, part boot Camp. This is why He had me start a Warriors boot Camp and gave me the outline.

(Prophetic Word flowed:)

"Listen my warriors! Your struggles have not been in vain. Your trials have sifted you in a way to separate the true warriors from the ranks. You have been called to a higher plain because I have a mission for you. You must stand strong and go forward. This mission is unlike any I have sent you on in the past. This mission will bring great victories if you faint not. Do not get weary in your prayers for the enemy desires to wear you out. Take your eyes off of the natural and see into the supernatural. Reach up, reach out and see if I will not deliver ALL of your enemies into your hands. The time for sorrow is past. The time for war is at hand. Cast out no one but gather them into my kingdom. Do not judge anyone’s value for that is my task. I can make winners out of losers. I can raise victory from the ashes of your lives. I am in process with a new thing. Say not “God is about to” in any area. Say instead “God is”, for I am about a new thing, it is springing forth NOW. No tomorrow, not in a while, but NOW. I AM!! I AM!! Stand where you are for I am sending orders to send you to where I have ordained you be for this warfare. Enter into MY war room and see if I will not give you direction. It is I that will order your steps. Take no care as to where you will go or how you will go or when you will go. Hear and obey and I will direct, I will guide, I will provide for every step of the way."

Daughter this hit me hard as I was reading your email. The Spirit is moving, the cloud is moving, the time is now.

Dad

Gleaning or Harvesting?

"Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn." - Rth_2:2

Brown-Driver_Briggs' Lexicon Glean: 1) to pick up, gather, glean, gather up. To collect oneself.

Merriam-Webster Old Irish : he selects. intransitive verb1: to gather grain or other produce left by reapers2: to gather information or material bit by bit. transitive verb1 a: to pick up after a reaper b: to strip (as a field) of the leavings of reapers2 a: to gather (as information) bit by bit b: to pick over in search of relevant material

HARVEST: Latin Carpere ( from whence we get car·pe di·em- pluck or seize the day!)To Pluck, gather, transitive verb 1 a: to gather in (a crop)

Do you know the difference between gleaning and harvesting? When you harvest a field, you go into a field that is ripe and full of produce and you start picking the fruit. When you go to glean, you are taking the leftovers from where others have already harvested. Or you are picking through material that has already been harvested to see what you can find that may be of use to you. So you are either looking through the left over pile, or you are digging through someone else's treasures to glean from their precious efforts.

Now there is nothing wrong per-se' with gleaning from other people's knowledge and understanding. That is why there are Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Evangelists and Teachers- for the edifying and building up of the saints to equip them for the work of the ministry.

I am going to make a radical statement next, but before you stone me(my minister friends and blog readers at large-) please read ALL the way to the bottom!

There IS something wrong, if you always have to run to this preacher or that minister, or some prophet to receive "a word from the Lord."

But aren't they put into place to give us the Word of the Lord? Yes, in their offices, they are put into that position of authority and responsibility by the Lord Himself ( unless they are self appointed, man called, and then you'd better discern and run!) And God does give us those words to speak. The problem lies in the expectation and responsibility of the hearers. Some, (not all) think they can ONLY hear God through another Man or Woman of God. Just as some erroneously believe that they must go through their local church official to get to God.

Paul addresses this: 1Ti 2:5 (AMP) For there [is only] one God, and [only] one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, (MSG) that there's one God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God and us--Jesus,

God Himself speaks on this in the Old Testament BEFORE Jesus was born- how much more loudly and eloquently is the saying now?

Isaiah 1:18 (CEV) I, the LORD, invite you to come and talk it over. Your sins are scarlet red, but they will be whiter than snow or wool.

Now surely the Lord would not invite us to come into His Chambers to "talk things over," if He did not intend to speak directly to us!

Do not become SO accustom to spoon feeding, that you can not graze for yourself. The shepherd's job was to lead the sheep to good grazing ground, and to watch over them while they ate, guarding them against attack of any kind.

Jesus said: John 10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

Now I want to break that down for you a little. "To go in and out." What does He mean, in and out? The word "IN' has these meanings in the Greek: to enter, of things: as food, that enters into the eater’s mouth, of entrance into any condition, state of things, society, employment, to arise, come into existence, begin to be, to come into life.

The shepherd watched that the sheep don't get into nightshade or some other poisonous plant. So too , we need to be mindful what we eat! Scripture tells us, "But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:19. That doesn't mean just money!

When you enter "IN" you begin to "BE" what God intended for you all along. You come into a condition of being IN Christ, connected to the vine. You find (spiritual) employment in God's Kingdom, and start to really LIVE the ZOE (God kind of) life.

So then why would you "Go OUT"? Good question! Let's look at the meanings. Strong's Concordance puts it simply: "spread abroad. " Thayer's: 1) to go or come forth of 1a) with mention of the place out of which one goes, or the point from which he departs.

We go out and spread abroad (make mention of) the goodness of the Lord that we experience in His Presence. We go forth and spread out like a tree planted by the waters that the shepherd led us to... and we provide shelter for others by what we have in our lives through the time we spent IN His Presence.


Find Pasture:
1) pasturage, fodder, food 1a) fig. he shall not want the needful supplies for the true life 2) growth, increase (like gangrene increases- so too we should spread and increase) even as is spoken of in 2Corinthians:
2Cor. 2:14 But thanks be to God, Who in Christ always leads us in triumph [as trophies of Christ's victory] and through us spreads and makes evident the fragrance of the knowledge of God everywhere, 2Co 2:15 For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which exhales] unto God, [discernible alike] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing: 2Co 2:16 To the latter it is an aroma [wafted] from death to death [a fatal odor, the smell of doom]; to the former it is an aroma from life to life [a vital fragrance, living and fresh].

Jesus said HE is our shepherd and IN HIM we will find pasture and be fed and grow. Does He use others to bless us? Yes, absolutely! But He doesn't want us to always be looking for the next person with the next "new word" for us. He has plenty of "Words" for us. Most of them are found in the BIBLE! He will supplement that with "a Word" through a
willing vessel. But we should be seeking HIS WORD not "Words." Seeking HIM, not "A Word from Him" but seeking HE HIMSELF.

When we "GO IN" we will find sweet intimacy and communion and "words" tenderly spoken to our hearts, as well as words of correction and warning.

Jesus tells us something so profound and beautiful in the Word and yet we have skipped over it in favor of running to another meeting to "get a word!"

John 16:25-27 I have told you these things in parables (veiled language, allegories, dark sayings); the hour is now coming when I shall no longer speak to you in figures of speech, but I shall tell you about the Father in plain words and openly (without reserve). At that time you will ask (pray) in My Name; and I am not saying that I will ask the Father on your behalf [for it will be unnecessary]. For the Father Himself [tenderly] loves you because you have loved Me and have believed that I came out from the Father.

For those of you who have been caught up in that cycle of running and seeking and never being satisfied, I urge you: "Come into His presence and settle down and let Him speak to your heart." He longs for that more than you!

And to my fellow ministers, I issue this gentle reminder: "Watch that you do not perpetuate dependency on YOU instead of the Lord. Always point them to the Lord and to His Word, even when delivering the God given message He would have you to speak. Our job is to equip them, not make them co-dependent!"

Oh me! or Amen! Stone me if you must! I have spoken what He put into my heart to speak. I trust that you will "chew on it" for a while.
