The Kingdom of
God!
Chapter 62
Last week I wrote the following:
God has designed all things to reveal
spiritual realities. He described the crocodile in Job as Leviathan. In Genesis
49:9 Jacob prophesied to Judah and said,
"You are a lion's cub, Judah; you return from the prey, my son. Like a
lion he crouches and lies down, like a lioness,who dares to rouse him?"
The lineage of Jesus runs through the two
twins of Judah, Perez and Zerah. (Matt. 1:3) Thus Jesus is known as The Lion of
the Tribe of Judah. That being true, then the Church His Bride would be known
as the Lioness of the Tribe of Judah.
The female lion is the one that does most of
the hunting. Likewise, the Church is the one that hunts for lost souls. In the
time we are living in, especially, in our nation, The Church is beginning to
roar as a lion and is hunting down all of the corruption our nation is in and
the tremendous attempt of Satan to destroy our nation. However, the Lion of the
Tribe of Judah is roaring also and is working with the Church in this spiritual
battle and the end result is we are going to get our nation back on Christian
principles. End Quote
Christians are often referred to as sheep and
Jesus also was referred to as a lamb. The lamb is the only animal that will
stick it's neck out to be slaughtered. All other animals will cry out and try
to escape. Jesus, like the lamb, willfully offered himself up to be crucified
for us. It is our goal in this life to become like Jesus and the Holy Spirit of
God lives within us to both will and do His good pleasure. (Phill. 2:13)
However, Jesus is also referred to as the
Lion of the Tribe of Judah. He not only was a lamb but He transformed into a
roaring lion. A group of lions are known as a 'pride' because of their regal,
King of the Jungle behavior. To those animals who are not a part of the pride,
it is a fearful, dreadful, bone chilling roar.
When The Lion of The Tribe of Judah begins to
roar it's a call to those who are of His pride to rise up and do spiritual
battle.
As we are born again, we are babes in Christ
and are sheep, however as we grow in Christ we are transformed into a lion. Unfortunately,
most Christians remain sheep and never grow into maturity in the Lord.
If you are interested in becoming a roaring
lion in the Kingdom of God, this is how you do it. The Great Apostle Paul said
in Rom. 12:2,
"Be not conformed
to this world: but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may
prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."
Not just reading the word of God but studying
it. Paul said in 2 Tim 2:15,
"Study to show
thyself approved unto God, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly
dividing the word of truth."
James said in James 1:22,
"Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do
what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is
like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself,
goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.>But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives
freedom, and continues in it not forgetting what they have heard, but doing
it;they will be blessed in what they do."
If you desire to be a leader in the Kingdom
of God you must be willing to lay aside your ideas of what the word is saying
and listen to what the Holy Spirit teaches you. You must be willing to change
your way of thinking and do what He tells you to do. Even if that means leaving
your friends that are not willing to change behind. This sometimes will require
you to make new friends that are seeking the truth and are willing to be
changed into His likeness.
I have had to do this in my life time and
believe me it wasn't an easy thing to do, however, the Lord will provide you
with new friends and will guide you in the direction He wants you to go and not
only that He will open doors for you that you never dream of. What a joy it is
to be led by the Spirit of God into paths of righteousness.
Like most of you, I was taught to be afraid
of change because we had the truth and all others were mistaken. However, my
desire to know the Lord intimately and to do what His will for me to do was far
greater than my fear of change.
Most are not willing to step out in faith and
trust the Lord to lead them. That is alright and nothing to be ashamed of if
you continue to work where the Lord has planted you. He has a design for your
life and will work with you to the level you are willing to go. The Body of
Christ needs all of us.
Not everyone is called to be a leader and a
pioneer in the deeper things of the Lord. Not everyone is an Apostle Paul and I
don't think we would want to have to go through all that he went through to
carry out his calling.
Paul was face with a situation where he had
to stand up for what is right in Acts 23:1-5 (NIV)
"Paul looked straight at the Sanhedrin and
said, "My brothers, I have fulfilled my duty to God in all good conscience to
this day." At this the high priest Ananias ordered those standing near Paul to
strike him on the mouth. Then Paul said to him, "God will strike you, you
whitewashed wall! You sit there to judge me according to the law, yet you
yourself violate the law by commanding that I be struck!" Those who were
standing near Paul said, "How dare you insult God's high priest!" Paul replied,
"Brothers, I did not realize that he was the high priest; for it is written:
"Do not speak evil about the ruler of your people."
Paul was here brought before the Jewish
Sanhedrin Court and had to defend himself. He did not hesitate but defended
himself with all respect for the high priest when he found out who he was.
I shared this with you because the Church
today can no longer just sit by and rely only on prayer! We are face with
forces of evil that are trying to destroy our nation and it is time for us to
stand up and resist this evil not only the spiritual realm but in the physical
realm also. We cannot just stand by and think that the Lord will do all that we
need without our working with Him. It is time for the Church to stand up and be
the standard that will stop this evil.
That standard is the Pentecostal,
Charismatic, Word of Faith Christians that have been trained in spiritual
warfare. That does not eliminate those who are not filled with the Holy Ghost,
because we need all of the Body of Christ to be active in this war to save our
nation.
There is so much happening in the political
world today that it is hard to keep up with all of it. West Virginia United
States Senator, Joe Manchin, said this week that if he was an embarrassment to
his Democrat colleagues because he opposes the $3.5 trillion bill the Democrats
are trying to pass, he would switch and become an independent.
The Virginia gubernatorial election is a
toss-up race. Polls show Republican Glenn Youngkin in
a dead heat with Democrat Terry McAuliffe. Democrats won 13 straight statewide
elections in Virginia and Leftists began to panic that if Republicans won this
race, it would derail Joe Biden's legislative agenda and set off a wave of
retirements in Congress as elected officials panic about the corrosive
political environment.
Tim Fitton, President, Judicial Watch, said
on Glen Beck's program that there was no reason that Ashli Babbitt was shot on
January 6. She was not doing anything that would warrant a shooting.
Sidney Powel wrote this week,
One of the biggest
questions I've had has been why has it been and is it so difficult to get
people in power to see the fraud in this and prior elections? Why do they
just issue blanket denials of "no evidence" when there are mountains of
it? Why do they turn a blind eye?
The answer to that
question is now obvious to me. They all know. They
have long known.
Countless
politicians entrenched in power have known for years the votes are manipulated
by "powers that be not according to the will of the voters. Just imagine
the billions of dollars in the campaigning/election industry alone, the RNC,
the DNC, that is all a sham. Our votes are not deciding our
elections. Nefarious people/communists are.
Witnesses, including
one brave whistleblower who created an algorithm to rig an election, have told
government officials for years. The criminal conduct there also ties into
a CCP spying operation that was exposed but left essentially untouched.
Question: Was
that also during the time that Senator Diane Feinstein employed a Chinese spy
and served on the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence?
Now with the help of
great patriots, we have found additional evidence of their direct knowledge,as
reflected in the video and attached affidavit.
Here's what you need
to see right now from a hearing in 2004 that included members of Congress Jerry
Nadler and Maxine Waters among others. End Quote
You can see this video by going to https://defendingtherepublic.org/......they knew and they know, including key government officials and lots-of dirty politicians, that your votes have been stolen with algorithms and computers since
2000/
The deep state in this nation has spread to
all major influences and is promoted by the corrupt media. We, as Christians
can step up and get involved with those who are fighting this corruption and
support them. We are in danger of loosing our freedom to worship as we see fit
and be controlled by our government as to what we can do.
The good news is that we are not in this
battle alone. The Lord is involved with us and will fight for us and He never loses
a battle.
