Then the King will turn to those on his right and say, ‘You have a special place in my Father’s heart. Come and experience the full inheritance of the kingdom realm that has been destined for you from before the foundation of the world! For when you saw me hungry, you fed me. When you found me thirsty, you gave me something to drink. When I had no place to stay, you invited me in, and when I was poorly clothed, you covered me. When I was sick, you tenderly cared for me, and when I was in prison you visited me.’ “Then the godly will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty and give you food and something to drink? When did we see you with no place to stay and invite you in? When did we see you poorly clothed and cover you? When did we see you sick and tenderly care for you, or in prison and visit you?’ “And the King will answer them, ‘Don’t you know? When you cared for one of the least important of these my little ones, my true brothers and sisters, you demonstrated love for me.’ (Matthew 25:34-40 TPT)
I will stay away from the political side of the debate and stay within my sphere of representing the Kingdom. When I look out at the homeless issue in this nation and see the amount of United States veterans living on the streets not only does my heart break, I hear the cry of Heaven as well, and this isn’t dismissing the totality of the homeless crisis in this nation. However, to be the America we were born to be and not do more for the men and women who sacrificially put their lives on the line for this nation is a crime in and of itself. Then to see so many governmental officials throwing more and more money at those individuals who have “Illegally” entered this country should be an indictment to see them removed from office.
Yet, from the Kingdom perspective, has the “Church” truly done her part, or has she in the cover of darkness placed the responsibility given to her by the Lord over to the government of this world?
Then to hear celebrity pastors who continue to increase the franchised religious clubhouse across this city bragging about how much they have spent on sound systems and other items to attract and entertain the masses causes me to incision the Lord with whip in hand turning over the tables.
The sad part is this is going on across the nation with a rise in user-friendly Church models that make the leaders multi-millionaires while leaving the members of their congregations impoverished regarding the unadulterated Gospel.
It is why I am excited to see where the Lord is taking the family at Highway To Heaven this year regarding our own location. There was a time that we would meet, make sandwiches, pray, and then hit the streets to minister to the homeless community in this city.
As well we would have cookouts at the Church and feed them for free, Always sharing the Gospel with them and doing everything possible to get them off the streets.
With the millions being spent on just maintaining the mega Churches in this City, that money could have been used to buy property 25 plus acres, build a discipleship community to house, disciples and grow enough food for hundred, plus have a storehouse of natural food to share with the Christian community in this city and region.
Along with that I believe by discipling these individuals on a farm, with livestock and agriculture, the Gospel would come to life and we would then see Mountain-Moving Disciples being raised up. Such would be those who would be the radical disciples of Christ going back to the streets to witness and pull more from the throngs of death, and begin discipling them as sons and daughters of God.
The Lord gave me this vision with the name of “New Creation Ranch” and I am believing this to be the year to break ground. With the plan the Lord gave me, within 3 years the community would be completely self-supported.
But in the meantime, I am praying for a Holy Conviction to fall upon the religious leaders in this city and region to stop playing religion and begin to transform this area, and truly lead by example of “Loving the least of these”.
