The Kingdom of God!

Chapter 41

 

 

I want to take you to Genesis 1:1-2 when God created the world as we know it,

 

"In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters."

 

Notice that the Spirit of the Lord was moving in darkness! The earth was void, meaning there was lifelessness and emptiness. Nothing was moving or advancing. This is how many see the condition of our nation right now. It seems like God's people and heaven's agenda are losing ground in this nation. It looks as though the cancel culture is stamping out anything that is filled with life and nothing is being done to stop it.

 

Notice the second condition in this verse. It was dark. This was the environment at the beginning of creation, utter darkness and emptiness. It was an environment where light had not broken through. This darkness represents everything that is opposed to the Spirit of God.

 

However, something suddenly changed! In the midst of this atmosphere of void and emptiness, God spoke! His voice broke through the darkness as He commanded light. Notice that it wasn't until the fourth day that He created the sun!

 

Whenever it is the most dark and empty, whether in your own life or in the nations and the world, is when God rolls up His sleeves and gets to work! It is in the darkness that God suddenly commands light to come forth and dominate the atmosphere!

 

We saw this when the glory of the Lord filled Solomon's temple in 2 Chronicles 5 and 6. In 2 Chron. 6:1 Solomon said, "The Lord has said that He would dwell in thick darkness""

 

We also see God manifest Himself in a dark cloud when He came down to show His presence to Israel on Mount Sinai. Exodus 20:21 says,

 

"And the people stood afar off, and Moses drew near unto the thick darkness where God was!"

Remember how the Bible describes Jesus' initial appearance in Galilee when He began His ministry? After four hundred years of silence on earth without God's prophetic voice or a move of His Spirit, to a world that saturated in utter darkness, Jesus suddenly arrives on the scene. Matt. 4:16 says,

 

"The people who lived in darkness saw a great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death, light has sprung up." 

 

Just because things may seem dark and discouraging right now, this does not mean that God is not moving or that the enemy has the upper hand.

 

Despite what we may see or not see happening visibly in the world, God is moving mightily! His spirit is piercing the darkness and shifting things in accordance with His plan and purpose. This is why we must come into agreement with Him and declare His will to be done, not only in our nation, but in all the nations as it is in heaven!

 

The enemy is already defeated and is losing ground, not only in your life, but also in our nation! We cannot allow the darkness to intimidate us into fear and despair!

 

Right now, we are entering the season of Pentecost. If you will recall in Acts chapter 2, this was the historical event we read about when the Holy Spirit descended and filled His people with supernatural power. When we receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit we have been supplied with miraculous anointing and ability that enables us to pierce through the darkness around us.

 

So, whatever darkness is before you, let this Pentecost be a landmark moment for you to advance in your faith. We are prophesying that you will be baptized with a fresh fire anointing from the Holy Spirit and with an anointing that will enable you to pierce the darkness around you with the light of God who is saying in this hour that it is not a time to shrink back in fear, but a time to launch forward in power!

 

John the Baptist told the multitudes who came out to hear him in Matt. 3:11,

 

"I indeed baptize you with 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 with the Holy Ghost, and with fire!

 

I once had an elder of mine tell me, "David, you don't want that fire!". Well, he just didn't understand this fire is the same fire that Moses saw in the burning bush! The fire of God is a cleansing fire that purges. It does not destroy! The Great Apostle Paul said in 1 Cor. 3:13-15,

 

"Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. If any man's work abides which he has built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire."

 

The fire of God will cleanse our nation and the nations of the world. Keep in mind that when the Holy Spirit fell on the Day of Pentecost, it happened suddenly. In this one impactful moment everything will be changed.

 

I feel strongly that this Pentecost marks a time that you will not only experience a fresh fire anointing, but you should expect God to move suddenly to perform sudden miracles and to bring forth sudden events and to cause sudden shifts in the circumstances around you.

 

Do not think any situation in your life is too far gone for God to intervene suddenly. Our nation is not too saturated with darkness to experience a move of God's miraculous power. Our God is a God of sudden intervention! In Zechariah 3:9, God says,

 

"I will remove the iniquity of that land in one day."

 

If God could turn a nation around in one day back then, He can do the same thing now! He can change a nation! He can move in your life! He can shift the entire landscape around us in a single Day!

 

Have faith, this Pentecost season for instant miracles and a sudden shift for good to take place! Have faith that the light will suddenly overcome the darkness! When we ask the Lord for something and we expect it to happen, it will come to pass when we walk by faith.

 

Here is a prophecy just given by the Lord for Israel,

 

"I say at this time, "This is not the time of the end of all things concerning the wars and nations that shall gather against Israel, for what the enemy has done to you will only cause a unity to arise among your people and in your government. This will cause the rising of My hand and the enforcing of My covenant with you. For there shall be swift harsh action that shall lead to expansion of your borders."

 

You say, "God can that happen, when it appears that our present administration in the United States has turned their backs on Israel?" "I am not honoring them!" says the Lord. "I am honoring the president that I anointed and has defended and stood with Israel!" (Donald Trump) "Therefore, I will stand with you Israel and I will stand with this nation!" says the Spirit of the Lord.

 

Today, like the days of Noah and the days of the building of the Tower of Babel, you have coming together those who are evil to build their own towers of corruption, corrupt governments and corrupt ideas. They think they can change God's plan for the earth and they think that they can over throw the United States. But I am here to tell you that God has got together with the Son and the Holy Ghost and the courts of heaven and He has heard our cries of repentance and cries for our nation.

 

He has heard our faith in His prophets and His word and He is moving and setting up the enemy and Satan and all of his cohorts and those who have taken a bite of his apple, will not know what hit them in the very near future. As in the days of Noah, another flood is coming! A flood of justice and a flood of righteousness. There is also a flood of the knowledge of the glory of Lord coming that the whole world will see and nations will be brought into the Kingdom of God!

 

The fire of the Lord is coming! It is not a destructive fire that we think of in the natural, but it is a cleansing fire that will burn up every thought and idea and conceptions of men and demons and totally destroy them. It is a unifying fire that will bring the Church together into the mighty army of God. No power of darkness will be able to stop this mighty army. Joel 2:1-1 (NIV) talks about this army,

 

"Blow the trumpet in Zion; sound the alarm on my holy hill. Let all who live in the land tremble, for the day of the LORD is coming. It is close at hand, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness. Like dawn spreading across the mountains a large and mighty army comes, such as never was in ancient times nor ever will be in ages to come."

 

Before them fire devours, behind them a flame blazes. Before them the land is like the garden of Eden, behind them, a desert waste, nothing escapes them. They have the appearance of horses; they gallop along like cavalry. With a noise like that of chariots they leap over the mountaintops, like a crackling fire consuming stubble, like a mighty army drawn up for battle. At the sight of them, nations are in anguish; every face turns pale.

 

They charge like warriors; they scale walls like soldiers. They all march in line, not swerving from their course. They do not jostle each other; each one marches straight ahead. They plunge through defenses without breaking ranks. They rush upon the city; they run along the wall. They climb into the houses; like thieves they enter through the windows. Before them the earth shakes, the heavens tremble, the sun and moon are darkened, and the stars no longer shine.

 

The LORD thunders at the head of his army; his forces are beyond number, and mighty is the army that obeys his command. The day of the LORD is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it?

 

Listen very closely to what I am about to tell you! Israel was created because God loved Israel and the United States was created because we loved God. There are only two nations that have been created because of the Love of God! I have shared with you that our nation was founded by some of The Lost Tribes of Israel. Again, if this interest you, go to my website, www.rejoicinglifeministries.com and scroll down to the article, Who is Zerah and Perez? Read this article and it will show you the rest of Jerimiah's instructions from the Lord that he was to tear down and then replant. The Bible tells us what he tore down but not what he replanted. This article will lead you straight to the United States of America and that is why we have been blessed above all nations. This is why there is an all-out attack by evil to destroy our nation. They will not succeed because the remnant of the Church is waging all-out spiritual warfare against Satan. Jesus said in Matt. 16:18,

 

"Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

 

Here in the United States, there is coming a mighty move of God that will bring about justice and righteousness and many of the nations around the world will see what God has done in America and will desire to be a part of this move of God!

 

You can be a part of this great move of God by believing what the prophets are saying and what the Lord is saying and get into agreement with them and declare with your mouth that this is about to happen and walk by faith and you will see it with your own eyes.

 

A great confession to make every day is what the song we sing in church says:

"I anticipate the inevitable, supernatural, intervention of God, I expect a miracle!"

We have fasted and we have prayed according to the Lord's will and now we expect Him to move on the behalf of our great nation!
