Dear children, the end of this age is near! You have heard that Antichrist is arising, and in fact, many enemies of Christ have already appeared, and this is how we know that we are living in the closing hour of this age. For even though they were once a part of us, they withdrew from us because they were never really of our number. For if they had truly belonged to us they would have continued with us. By leaving our community of believers they made it obvious that they never really belonged to us. But the Holy One has anointed you and you all know the truth.  (1 John 2:18-20, TPT)

I don’t know about anyone else but over the past couple of years, I have seen numereous people I was aligned with as far as the Kingdom goes, break apart.

A little over 3 years ago Holy Spirit began speaking to me about this and He always brought me to the passages of scripture above. It doesn’t;t mean, and I am not saying, that these were bad people. Nor that any of us were wrong.

I believe that Holy Spirit is connecting us to those we are purposed to walk this Kingdom journey with. We have to be alert and discerning in this hour. I have witnessed and heard from others as to how the Spiritual radar is on high alert pinging constantly as the spirit of Babylon is increasing throughout the world and in much of the culture in America, including in many Churches that have been lured into their ideologies.

It is important that we “War” with those who share our belief, even if the calling may not be the same on the surface, a matter of prayer and heart-to-heart conversation will allow Holy Spirit to show us that we do share the same Spiritual assignment, which the Father is drawing each us to focus on.

Much like that of each family member, one may be a doctor, one may be a teacher, and mom may stay at home while Dad goes to work every day, but no member in the family is looked at as less important than the other.

I know that I have no desire to go for a long hike with someone who hates to hike. I can however go on a hike with someone who has never hiked before but has a deep desire to learn how to hike, if you get my drift here. I have been in prayer meetings with individuals who kept looking at their watch and were unable to hide their anxiousness for the meeting to end, as well as some Church services. I can tell you right now, that is NOT someone I want to join me in praying out a Kingdom assignment.

There are definitely exceptions to every case, as I fully understand when the meeting and or service is lacking in Holy Spirit presence, I have had to sit through a number of those over the years.

In hindsight, I see where I totally missed asking Holy Spirit if He was going to be there Himself. So again, Holy Spirit will give you His perspective you need but ask.

So if you have had connections breaking recently, or even in the past, don’t immediately try and find the reason why so you can blame them or yourself.

In each instance, it is vital to go to our first line of defense, prayer, and ask Holy Spirit for discernment over the situation. You just may be surprised when you find that He is actually looking out for you and doesn’t want you to step on some spiritual IEDs (improvised explosive devices) that the enemy has laid to wound you or to take you out of the battle, or even worse, premature death.

There are way too many casualties of war right as there is now in the Body. Mainly because many of them did not allow or were not taught to allow Holy Spirit to cleanse them of any spiritual leeches such as the spirit of bitterness, the spirit of unforgiveness, the spirit of rejection, and the most common one, the Orhan spirit.

Sadly one of the biggest reasons for this is due to the fact that the Church to a large degree has abandoned the discipleship model that Jesus gave us in the way that He disciples the twelve, face-to-face up close and personal relationships.

Also, they generally find themselves sitting under a leader who may well have academic degrees galore, but they have not been baptized in the Spirit, which Jesus was clear about, that we dare not even step into ministry until we have received Holy Spirit.

In this hour, I hear Holy Spirit calling each of us to check our hearts and to surrender any preconceived ideas that we have come up with as to where we are to fellowship and with whom we are to fellowship. He knows our past, even before we were born, He knows our “now” and He knows our future. Who better to trust our lives with.

As good soldiers and as obedient disciples of the LORD, we must allow Him to direct us to those the Father has purposed us to be connected to as a Kingdom family, both locally as well as internationally. The degree of victory and victorious battles we win literally depends on our willingness to allow Holy Spirit to govern us in every area of our lives.

To God be the Glory!!!!

I am trying to help you and make things easier for you and not make things difficult, but so that you would have undistracted devotion, serving the Lord constantly with an undivided heart. (1Corinthians 7:35, TPT)

I believe one of the greatest weapons the enemy has, is that of distractions. In the garden, Eve had no reason to be hungry, yet Satan was able to distract her attention to put that sense of need and fulfillment into her mind.

How many testimonies have been given, of young people who were going to do great exploits for the Kingdom and ended up getting distracted by a relationship?

How many ministries and or marriages have been destroyed due to the distraction of an affair?

King David, being a warrior king, should have been at war, and due to him becoming complacent, the enemy ended up putting a distraction in lue of place where he already had David hooked (lust) causing him to seduce (some say raped) another man’s wife. He had hundreds of wives, who could have satisfied his lustful thirst

Satan lured him deceptively leading him to believe that; A. He needed her. and B. she would satisfy him. That is again how the enemy likes to work, putting an illusion of being fulfilled via a false appetite. Now, we must see that the enemy did this in order to hijack King David’s destiny which also impacted his family and the whole nation of Israel.

In the “have-it-now” generation in which we live, distractions abound,. However, those who are being led by Holy Spirit are spiritually armed to see these distractions for what they are. But the key is surrendering our desires to His authority. And in keeping our hearts centered on what matters the most.

True shepherds should be fueling the congregation’s hearts with Spiritual food that not just satisfies them but emboldens them to seek the King, His Kingdom, and Righteousness. Yet in the many social clubs across this nation, with their relevant messages, they are feeding their lust for the things of the flesh, which are but temporary.

We see our Lord warning us::

Jesus responded, “Why do you keep looking backward to your past and have second thoughts about following me? When you turn back you are useless to God’s kingdom realm.” (Luke 9:62, TPT)

The hour is upon us when we will see the parable of the Ten Virgins playing out right before our eyes. For in the Kingdom Age in which we have entered, it is ]ALL about the King, His Kingdom, and Righteousness. The bad news for those who are merely playing Church, the hour to surrender is getting shorter and shorter.

But for those who have been born-again-from-above, having been baptized in the fires of Holy Spirit, we are secure, for as the WORD declares we are the Righteousness of God in Christ!!! (2 Corinthians 5:21).

We don’t need the pleasures and things of this world to attract our youth, we need men and women who carry the Supernatural presence of the Kingdom with them wherever they go. This is what our youth are looking for, not only the adventures with God, but they want to know who they are, what they’ve been created for, and that they are LOVED!!!

There are congregations where these Spiritual foods are being not just prepared for Sunday brunch, but consumed on a daily basis, these are Kingdom families that are expanding the Kingdom, rescuing the lost, feeding the widows, and setting the captives free. It is not about religious programs, it is not about religious outreaches of the Church so that they can get a good name in the city. This is the Kingdom lifestyle being lived out in Power and Authority!!!

When one begins the dance of romance with the Father, Son, and Spirit, there is no room for distractions, there is no room for the enemy’s voice to even gain access. For the True Gospel vibrates with LOVE and Relationship.

It is why the Father is in the process of shutting down these imposter organizations, shaking them loose from using His Good name, these mundane, false gospel preaching houses of distraction. Like the corrupt governments of this world, these religious houses of distraction will be exposed as Icabod houses they truly are.

“My brothers and sisters, when I first came to proclaim to you the secrets of God, I refused to come as an expert, trying to impress you with my eloquent speech and lofty wisdom. For while I was with you I was determined to be consumed with one topic—Jesus, the crucified Messiah. I stood before you feeling inadequate, filled with reverence for God, and trembling under the sense of the importance of my words. The message I preached and how I preached it was not an attempt to sway you with persuasive arguments but to prove to you the almighty power of God’s Holy Spirit. For God intended that your faith not be established on man’s wisdom but by trusting in his almighty power.” (1 Corinthians 2:1-5, TPT)

We need men and women who have been through the fiery camp of Holy Spirit’s transformation, who carry the flames of the Father’s love in them. So HOT and Passionate, that they light fires where ever they go.

Are you tired of dead religion? Are you tired of seeing our youth stolen, our neighborhood decaying and our cities being thrown into chaos, cesspools of crime, drugs, and utter wickedness?

Are you tired of seeing our nation stolen right out from under our feet?

Then surrender your lives to the Government of the Holy Spirit, and turn your heart, dreams, and desires over to Him. Take a stand and watch as ALL of Heaven not only backs you up but actually stands with you!!!

These are the days when the surrendered vessels carrying the knowledge of the Glory of the Lord begin to break free from the distractions of this world and begin to illuminate His Glory causing the enemy to flee in fear.

The Father is calling you friend, Holy Spirit is wooing you into that circle dance of romance that you were always purposed to be part of. Today can be the first day of your life, where you feel to powerful weight of your destiny and purpose flowing up from within you like a Mighty Rushing River!!!

And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon son of Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed it unto thee, but my Father who is in the heavens. And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, a small rock and upon the large rock I will build my congregation, [Gr. ekklesia – called out ones] and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against her. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of the heavens, and whatever thou shalt bind on the earth shall be bound in the heavens, and whatever thou shalt loose on the earth shall be loosed in the heaven. (Matthew 16:17-19, Jubilee)

The Ekklesia was never meant to be a spectator platform where the religious elite show off their talents and people live out their Kingdom assignments through the stories of what others are doing.

The Ekklesia was established to be a living, moving active assembly of Heaven’s governmental authorities here on Earth, governing the cultures, business, educational institutes, medical field, and even the governments of this world.

The spirit of religion since the beginning of the New Testament Ekklesia has sought to limit if not completely deny access to any aspect of the culture. It did so in the beginning through Jewish Religious sects which sought to infiltrate and implement the legalistic doctrines that man had instituted in their own religion of Judaism.

Now, history shows that all these attempts failed to slow down the Kingdom’s growth, especially after having their main Temple of worship in Jearsulam destroyed around 70 A.D. which sent these bands of Jewish legalists scattering around the known world.

For a number of years, the Ekklesia of the LORD began to flourish as the Gospel was taken to the ends of the known world. That is until in and around 325 A.D. when under the governing authority of the Roman Emperor Constantine the creation of the paganistic Roman Catholic church was established. For again, history records that over a series of years through oftentimes employing brutal force, this paganistic religious cult sent the Ekklesia of the LORD, which had been known up to that point as “People of The Way” underground.

The Ekklessia remained underground through the centuries, however, we have historical writings that prove the Father has kept His remnant alive throughout the generations since the time they we sent into hiding. We also have historical accounts where they would begin to move in the supernatural realms of the miraculous, with conforms signs, miracles, and wonders. It really the LIGHT of His Gospel was never created to remain hidden behind veils of darkness.

In the 1500’s we saw the rise of a religious organization which has been known as the Protestant Church break away from and separate itself from the majority of the Catholic teaching and traditions.

However even as Luther himself never wanted to not be Catholic, the spiritual residue of the Catholic Church has never fully been eradicated from the Protestant Church. Thus to door to allow the “spirit of religion’s” influence has remained open and it has many times squashed the movement of the Ekklesia from fully liberating itself from the grips of religion.

But again, the Father has kept His Holy Remnant in every generation, waiting for that Kiaros moment on the eternal calendar to raise them up to reclaim their rightful place as His government officials here on Earth and begin to enforce the victory of His Son on the cross and reclaim His Kingdoms reign on Earth even as it is in Heaven.

And Heaven has declared, Remant Warriors of the LORD, it is time to come out from the wilderness and take your ordained positions as Kings and Priests of the Kingdom of God here on Earth (Revelations 1:6).

Saints, we are now in that very hour and as the prophets have been decreeing, the Father is about to shake Heaven and Earth with a mighty Spiritual Reset!!!

Holy Spirit is strategically raising up Kingdom Hubs, ruled by His governing authority….

One needs but turn on the news or visit the inner city of pretty much any of our cities in this nation to see that lost humanity needs a divine encounter that only the Lord can provide through Holy Spirit and His sons & daughters.

We would have to be completely spiritually blind not to see that the world is at a crisis tipping point, hanging over the edge, and teetering on the brink of destruction. All of creation is groaning, you can see it and hear it in the people.

The only hope is a revealing (which is currently taking place) of the sons & daughters of the LORD, for which all of the cosmos is eagerly waiting (Romans 8:22).

The plans of the Father are clear, which is to raise up ALL of His children in the fullness of both the grace gifts of Christ in their lives and the gifts of Holy Spirit to reach our lost and dying world.

Those who are hearing this call must separate themselves from the constraints of the religious institutions that are dotted like spotted cows across the landscape of America.

Granted, such places have the appearance of godliness in the works that they perform. However, these “programs” are mere religious coverings, which upon closer examination, one with a spiritually discerning Spirit can clearly see are but a means to gather more donors to enrich their institutional model’s financial stability when in reality they are robbing the LORD’s children of their birth-rights as mountain movers.

Far too many are being deceived by these religious works programs that, again, have the appearance of pleasing the Father.

Yet at the same time, Holy Spirit is revealing the darkness behind these hideous religious schemes to draw more victims into their religious prisons aka “Religious Social clubs” that deny one from truly experiencing the liberation meant for the Saints. They instead cause their victims to become addicted to the weekly religious entertainment and drag them into a deeply seated soulish prison of guilt for not becoming more involved in the promotions of the organizations.

As He has in every generation, the LORD is establishing Remnant hubs across this nation, many are regional, however, in some of the heavily populated cities, there is a matrix of these Remnant families positioned throughout the neighborhoods. Some meet in homes, whereas others meet in multi-purpose spaces.

I believe, having heard countless testimonies, that when one is able to break free from the life-sucking grips of these religious institutions, upon finding an authentic Kingdom family, they find the powerful anointing of Christ present in each of the”Living Stones” who make up the family which is magnified in the gatherings to where the force of Holy Spirit anointing in each ones life (even in the children). For the government of Holy Spirit associated with His leadership witnesses the power of His Spiritual influence and strength, destroying every yoke of the devil, especially those that the spirit of religion has placed upon their lives.

These individuals are literally being freed from the terror-filled guilt and shame-laced garments of religion that have held them prisoner. Some for but a few years while others are freed from countless years, even decades of religious torture. And this Spiritual freedom is like a fast-acting medicine, as the fire of Holy Spirit’s anointing flows rapidly through their veins, freeing them to experience the LIFE of victory that they’ve always longed for.

Many quickly become set free from addictions and spiritual bondage that they tried to escape for years. Upon tasting the Goodness of the LORD LOVE, many for the first time, and seeing Jesus for who He truly is, causes some to simply break down and weep with cries of “How cloud I have been so deceived?”

“Testmonies are being heard of these Holy Spirit governed supercharged family gatherings where the atmosphere of the LORD’s Glory is being experienced”

Such testimonies are being made in these gatherings, sprouting from the Kingdom family shouts of JOY, as they are heard rejoicing as they witness the glory of the LORD brightly shining upon the faces of these new brothers & sisters, as they watch the waves of His glorious grace wash over them, cleansing them completely of the religion slime that has become attached to their lives.

Testimonies of how marriages are being renewed, physical ailments are healed, and even relationships between parents and their children are being restored.

And I am fully convinced that these gatherings are going to increase as we enter this Kingdom Re-set that His prophets have been prophesying.

Friend(s), if you are hungering to experience the real Kingdom, to become part of a real Kingdom family, possibly even become part of one that the Father is just starting to breathe His breath of life upon, spend some time in prayer & fasting, asking Holy Spirit to direct you to such a group. He so loves to bring people into the Kingdom of LIGHT, freeing them from the prison of dead, dark, and cold religion, so that the Father may be glorified!!!

Many have written off California, especially such cities as Los Angeles, and San Fransico as being un-redeemable. But could they be looking through natural eyes?

For when I read the scriptures I see an ALL-powerful God stepping into impossibilities and turning them with the supernatural ability of ALL things are possible with I AM.

In fact, I hear Holy Spirit calling out to sons and daughters whose hearts beat with the same passion as the Father, who dare to believe in the impossible to step into agreement with the Father, having put on His helmet of Salvation that declares “ALL Things are Possible with the LORD”.

Those who know their faith can tumble any mountain the enemy places in their path and declare an earth-shaken Holy Spirit FIRE-filled Revival to consume California from top to bottom.

Holy Spirit is seeking those who are willing to go … even as He spoke to Isaiah:

After this, I heard the voice of the Lord saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then I answered, Here am I; send me. (Isaiah 6:8)

Friends, don’t be caught sitting in the judgemental seat of religion – instead allow Holy Spirit to seat you with Christ in the Throne room, in your ordained seat as family members of the LORD MOST HIGH. #SELAH

“The Remnant knows that it is not pleasing to the Father when people attempt to “do” Church in a style that is pleasing to Him. For it is only when His sons & daughters live out the revelation of “being” His Church that His heart is moved” #SELAH

In the years that followed the pagan emperor Constantine’s establishment of the Roman Catholic Church, they brutally overtook the “The Way”, that is, those dedicated and faithful followers of Christ’s teachings as passed down from His Apostles.

Thus they placed the narrow path of being the Lord’s disciples into a blurred maze of religious doctrines. We need to realize this truth for the reality is that although the protestant Church has tried, they are still deeply settled in the Romanization of the Church.

Luther never desired to not be a Roman Catholic. However he was booted out (excommunicated), but his desire to remain in their rituals and traditions was clearly transferred over to the Protestant Church, with a basic change in terms, names, and titles. And with the continued practicing of pretty much of the same religious ritual practices, it is clear that they are still steeped in the confines of religious doctrines.

Nonetheless, because of the unwillingness to totally become separated from Catholicism, the leadership of the modern-day Church remained removed from the governing authority of Holy Spirit and continued to be placed in the hands of men (especially those who adhere to and remain entrenched in the doctrinal teachings of Western theological Christianity).

But that is all about to radically change, as Holy Spirit is currently moving Heaven and Earth as He re-establish His Government in and over the Lord’s Ekklesia. He is doing so with the help of His Angel army in unison with the LORD’s remnant in this generation who have commissioned and Spiritually empowered to expose and tear down the walls of religion that have been keeping the Lord’s children in the dark.

This afternoon, as I am studying, I hear the voice of Heaven declaring that it is time for the Remnant to be freed from the spiritual prisons of religious houses and become liberated under the protection of the governing authority of Holy Spirit.

So, what does a Biblical Church look like?

First, we need to render the proper word for the Ekklesia and dismiss the improper use of the term Church. It can be correctly described as a Congregation, Assembly, or simply a gathering of the saints.

However for the sake of avoiding our becoming mired down in a major thread debating the word Church, which will ultimately be taken over by the strangling religious spirit. Let’s simply say “Church”.

Now the size isn’t the issue, 2 or more, or on any given day it might just be you, the Father, Son, and Spirit surrounded by Angels. For Church must never be defined by a structure made by hands, but is definitely referred to in scripture as vessels made of flesh for which the Father, Son, and Spirit come to dwell in.

In the beginning age of the Church, they mostly met in homes, as stated in Acts (Acts 2:46-47).

Historical accounts show that by the time the Catholic Church showed up on the scene, there were approximately 400,000 house churches scattered across the known world. Holy Spirit-led congregations were spreading the Gospel like wildfire, almost uncontested, that is until the Romanization of the Church.

Today we see the resemblance of a Romanized Church religious residue hidden within the Western Theological religious institution scattered around across this nation, and like leaven, has spread throughout the rest of the world (A.K.A. Protestant Church).

Yet, in this very hour, Holy Spirit is leading the charge to take back the Ekklesia, to once against purify with His Holy Fire and separate from the religious those whose hearts are on Christ and Christ alone, who have surrendered and dedicated their lives to the will of the Father, even at the cost of their lives.

There is no way that the spirit of religion can even begin to imitate the authentic Spiritual DNA of a son or daughter of the Most High, those with eyes to see will recognize such as barren fruitless trees of religion.

They will as well be able to discern the signs, miracles, and wonders regarding which ones are false, cheap deceptive illusions of the authentic signs, miracles, and wonders of the Lord. Friends, we must remember that Satan is the father of lies and he can only mimic the authentic, he can not create them.

So, much like a trained historian who can determine whether a historic relic is real or merely a cheap imposter, so shall the sons & daughters operate in supernatural discernment in the coming days. But it must be understood that such discernment is only granted to those who have surrendered their lives to living them under the governing authority of Holy Spirit’s Lordship.

For the sons and daughters of the LORD Most High, walk the earth as authoritative ambassadors of His government, and are granted access to governmental seats that are established on HIGH, right in the Throne room of the Godhead, where everything else is exposed.

We are about to witness a shaking in the governments of the world, including the man-established governments ruling the religious institutions, unlike anything that has ever been seen (Hebrews 12:26-29).

This coming shaking will be one with such force, it will literally expose the false, and verify the authentic Kingdom. He has not only prophesied this in His WORD, but He is also reiterating it to His prophets in this generation.

Do not ignore this warning!!!

It is a time that we ALL must make sure that our own hearts are pure, emptied of any and all self agendas, and make sure our hands are cleansed, not holding onto the polutted things of this world including but not limited to religious doctrines of man. This is a good time to fast and allow Holy Spirit to search our hearts.

The world is about to experience a wave of dread-filled fear unlike it has everything experienced in the past, including the wars and plagues. However, the sons and daughters of the Lord will not feel it, for they have been dressed in the garments of the Father’s love, robed in their inherited Beloved Identity, which completely denies the spirit of fear access to their lives.

Now is the hour to find your tribe, your Kingdom family. It is not a time to be found partying with the world, attempting to find refuge in religious institutions, they have no spiritual power to turn the tide. In fact, due to their comprising agreements and cultural trends with the world, their own walls of doctrinal security will crumble under the weight of the LIGHT of His Righteousness.

As I write this, I am hearing Holy Spirit declare that such houses of religion, those spiritually impoverished places, will end up being a harvesting field for the demonic-ruled entities feeding on toxic, insidious dark religious leftovers.

“And what agreement does the temple of God have with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God has said, I will dwell in them and walk in them and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. Therefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and do not touch the unclean thing; and I will receive you and will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2 Corinthians 6:16-18)

The LORD further said unto Moses, I have seen this people, and for certain it is a stiffnecked people. Now therefore let me alone that my wrath may wax hot in them and consume them; and I will put thee over a great nation. Then Moses grieved before the LORD his God and said, LORD, why shall thy wrath wax hot against thy people, which thou hast brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand? (Exodus 32:9-11)

The spirit of religion, especially that which has been woven throughout Western Theology, loves to interpret this verse to mean that the Lord God lost His temper and Moses had to plead with Him to calm Him.

However, is that what is really going on here?

Was Moses actually able to change the mind of God?

Or could it be that Abba was maturing Moses, drawing out His very likeness in the man whom He had seated to lead His people?

Does this raging wrath-filled God that Western Theology is propping up here truly resemble the loving Father that Jesus re-presented to the world?

A few years ago, Holy Spirit repositioned my view of this passage, causing me to look at it from the perspective that the early Church fathers read it from.

Let me ask you this question:

Can you fit that image of God into the following scene?

Jesus, lifting himself up and seeing no one but the woman, said unto her, Woman, where are thine accusers? Has no one condemned thee? And she said, No one, Lord. Then Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee; go and sin no more. (John 8:10-11)

I would dare say unequivocally NO!!!

In fact, in no way whatsoever did Jesus ever once present His Father in the manner which is being presented in the majority of those churches which are regurgitating this corrupted gospel that is woven throughout Westernized Theology.

Now, if you are currently attending a Church that teaches about a God who was ever so close to losing His temper and was going to pour out all his wrath-filled rage on His people and was only able to refrain from this murderous plot when His creation begged Him not to do so, run from that Ismeal house.

Its time to come from wandering in the wilderness and find yourself a Kingdom family & home!

Ask Holy Spirit to guide you and your family to a Congregation (Ekklesia family) that is walking in the Light of the True unadulterated Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven. In fact, you will find that such a Kingdom family has fully committed their walk to the governing authority of Holy Spirit. #SELAH

Over the past several days, the Holy Spirit keeps whispering “Elite group of warriors” and as He whispers this the word Remnant pops into my mind. With that, my Spirit immediately thinks of David’s mighty warriors who stood by His side, and against all odds defeated the enemies of Israel.

This morning as I was starting my day with Him, the thought of Elite came to my mind and I began to ponder it. For I know it is not in reference to what many would consider elite meaning such as better than others, or as those who lord what they believe to be their superior place in society over others.

As I was thinking about this He began showing me the character of this group of individuals. They are those who throw worldly caution to the wind, those who have left behind them the desires of notoriety, fame, and fortune. They have done these things and more because they have all come to find something more valuable than anything this world has to offer, which is that of presence.

They have become drawn to the love of the One who first and always has loved them. Much like Brother Lawrance, they have come to a place where even if they were not saved, they would still love the Lord and welcome His intimate presence.

They have surrendered their will to be but moved by the Wind (John 3:8) and though many would caution them not to be so impulsive, they do not pay attention to the warning of worldly wisdom but rather are ready to change course in the direction Holy Spirit leads them.

So this elite group of Spiritual Warriors does not consider themselves better than others, they simply believe that they are such dedicated friends with the Lord (even as He has dedicated His life to them), that they will do whatever He wills them and go even into the places where the comforts of this world evade them.

Who were these 30 mighty warriors who fought beside of David?

1. Asahel, who was Joab‘s brother, 2. Elhanan, the son of Dodo from Bethlehem, 3. Shammah from Harod, 4. Elika from Harod, 5. Helez from Palt, 6. Ira, the son of Ikkesh from Tekoa, 7. Abiezer from Anathoth, 8. Sibbekai from Hushah, 9. Zalmon from Ahoah, 10. Maharai from Netophah, 11. Heled, the son of Baanah from Netophah, 12. Ithai, the son of Ribai from Gibeah in the territory of Benjamin, 13. Benaiah from Pirathon, 14. Hiddai from the ravines of Gaash, 15. Abi-Albon from Arbath, 16. Azmaveth from Bahurim, 17. Eliahba from Shaalbon, 18. The sons of Jashen (names unspecified), 19. Jonathan, the son of Shammah the Hararite, 20. Ahiam, the son of Sharar the Hararite, 21. Eliphelet, the son of Ahasbai from Maakah, 22. Eliam, the son of Ahithophel from Giloh, 23. Hezro from Carmel, 24. Paarai from Arab, 25. Igal, the son of Nathan from Zobah, 26. Zelek the Ammonite, 27. Naharai from Beeroth, who served as armor-bearer to Joab son of Zeruiah, 28. Ira the Ithrite, 29. Gareb the Ithrite, 30. Uriah the Hittite.

This enumeration of warriors underscores their diversity in origin and their distinct roles within the Thirty, a notable assembly of fighters.

The little on the background of these 30 mighty men of war:

Ira, denoted as the son of Ikkesh from Tekoa, suggests his origin from a town in Judah known for its wilderness. This environment could have contributed to his skills in survival and combat, essential for a warrior. Similarly, Maharai and Heled, identified as Netophathites, came from Netophah, another locality in Judah. Their familiarity with the rough terrains around their home could have made them formidable in guerrilla warfare. Characters like Abi-Albon the Arbathite and Azmaveth the Barhumite also stand out, with the former possibly hailing from Beth-arabah, a town in the territory of Benjamin or Judah, and the latter from Bahurim.

Their origins might suggest training in specific styles of combat or knowledge of local warfare strategies, enhancing their roles within the group. Eliam son of Ahithophel the Gilonite and Uriah the Hittite also hold significant but less discussed backgrounds; Eliam being the son of David’s counselor, indicates a connection to high political influence, enhancing his status and possibly his military prowess. Uriah, a Hittite, points to his origins outside the Israelite communities, reflecting the diversity and inclusiveness of David‘s followers in terms of skills and cultural tactics.

These diverse backgrounds combined with their likely involvement in various military campaigns under David, suggest that each member brought unique skills and experiences to the group, contributing to their effectiveness as a military unit. Their feats, though not detailed in this particular passage, would typically include outstanding acts of bravery and skill in battles that defined the era of King David‘s reign.

A couple of notable examples set by these warriors is:

In battle, Eleazar displayed remarkable endurance and bravery by holding his position and fighting the Philistines until he was so weary that his hand froze to his sword. Shammah demonstrated his valor by taking a stand alone in a field and successfully defending it against the Philistine forces. Abishai showcased his formidable combat skills by wielding his spear to overcome three hundred opponents. Benaiah also accomplished impressive feats, such as vanquishing two of Moab’s most formidable warriors, slaying a lion during a snowstorm, and overcoming a giant Egyptian. These instances highlight the extraordinary actions of these warriors during conflicts.

David was not blind to the deep dedication these men showed toward him, even to the point of laying their lives down for him. In fact, David demonstrated deep respect and honor for the bravery of his mighty warriors through a symbolic gesture. When his loyal warriors risked their lives to fulfill his wish for water from Bethlehem’s well, David chose not to drink the water upon their return. Recognizing the grave danger they faced to retrieve it, he poured the water out as an offering to the Lord. This act served as a poignant acknowledgment of their valor, emphasizing that he valued their lives and sacrifices far more than fulfilling his own desires. By refusing to drink the water, David underscored the sacredness of the risks they took on his behalf.

They have come to the revelation of truth that in dying to the desires of the flesh (self-seeking) they have stepped into the very life they were designed for (John 10:10).

Thus they have been reborn of the Spirit from above and are now living in their true identity as the sons & daughters of the Living God. And with this, they have gained access to the treasure trove of their inheritance. And with that inheritance comes the foreknowledge of not only all the Spiritual weapons they have to use but also the revelation of how to use them.

The greatest weapon is that of their voice, for even as they were created in His image, so does their voice carry His Spiritual authority and power. Thus, no longer shall they remain silent in the shadows but with shouts of Praise, they shall be seen vanquishing the dark demonic strongholds which have captivated whole cultures throughout the nations.

They have been called by the Lord to engage via Spiritual warfare tactics under the governance of Holy Spirit, such evils as human trafficking (especially the exploration of our children), anti-god political movements such as communism, socialism, and evil dictatorships. As well as confronting and tearing down cultural strongholds such as racism, inner-city poverty, and other evils that seek to imprison the world.

Coupled with that call they have gained access through the finished works of Christ on the cross, opening the door to authentic sonship so as to be able to re-establish the Father’s permission to operate in the dominion authority He granted mankind in the garden. And coming out of the wilderness of Spiritual training, they come armed with the understanding that the very frequencies of their voice carry the Light which darkness still has no answer for (John 1:5). #SELAH

All these [gifts, achievements, abilities] are inspired and brought to pass by one and the same [Holy] Spirit, Who apportions to each person individually [exactly] as He chooses. (1 Corinthians 12:11, AMPC)

The lack of integrity is a major issue in the Church today … I have personally witnessed others seeking to propel themselves in ministry off of the reputation of their mentors. As well as having read the stories of countless others.

One thing I can but give Holy Spirit credit for was His never allowing me to try and springboard off from someone else’s ministry.

Over the years I have been blessed to have been part of (and in many cases leadership) some pretty amazing ministries from the prophetic to that of healing and mentored under some incredible men of God.

Yet I never once sought to use their names to advance the ministry my wife and I co-steward. And I believe the reason for that is due in large part to the One my wife & I co-steward with, Christ our Lord. However, I also must give credit where credit is due. – it is also due to the fact of having been mentored by men of God who taught me the importance of integrity in ministry.

I know early on as I started preaching I tried to preach in the style of my favorite preachers. Then one m morning as I was getting ready, Holy Spirit asked a question that shook me:

Why are you attempting to operate in the anointing that Father gave others?

I didn’t have an answer for Him. He then proceeded to explain to me that the Father had gifted me with the abilities that He chose for me and that I could not legally hijack the gifting (anointing) He had given to others. Holy Spirit then said, “Listen to Me and I will train you in the style for which you have been created. If you continue to try and run on someone else’s anointing and or seek to mimic them to gain their reputation, you will end up burning out”.

From that day forward I have never tried to mimic anyone else. Whether I am liked, understood, and called for to preach at other churches, it will be based on the door the Lord opens, not on any that I try to force to open and surely not having gained entrance as an imposter.

Now, looking at the issue of integrity, and with regard to what Holy Spirit has shown me discern that the city I currently live in is home to hundreds of Ismael ministries and churches. Such that were built on disrespect and division. Foundations built on stones of ego and pride often at the expense of those believers who were forced to choose sides.

Derick Prince saw the same thing on his last visit to Jacksonville. In fact, the division and ministry rivalries caused him to state; “Until the Churches in this city repent of their sins of spiritual jealousy and covetousness I will not return to preach here”. Sadly, he never did return.

Jacksonville isn’t the only city plagued with this issue, the Christian landscape across this nation is covered with it. Unity does not mean we have to agree on every doctrine however until we agree and walk as a witness to John 13:34, this nation will not see healing.

Respect, Integrity, and Honor are key Kingdom foundational stones upon which a Kingdom family is built and stands. Yet, even with those stones in place, if they are not established on John 13:34, they will not stand the winds of change and to constant attack of the enemy. 

Where there is a lack in the presentation of the true Gospel message of the Kingdom, the enemy gains access to birth chaos and confusion. Much of Western theology has been reduced to the doctrines of men, which are lacking in the authentic power of Holy Spirit-led lives.

Holy Spirit led Revolution

Then Jesus made a public spectacle of all the powers and principalities of darkness, stripping away from them every weapon and all their spiritual authority and power to accuse us. And by the power of the cross, Jesus led them around as prisoners in a procession of triumph. He was not their prisoner; they were his! (Colossians 2:15 TPT)

The spirit of religion is skilled at deception and it is seen in the doctrines that claim the wrath of God is towards man rather than the truth that it is directed at anything that brings separation between Him and His creation. For it was with the same LOVE used in creating man as that which we see displayed on the cross as He reconciled man back to his purposed intimacy with the Father, Son, and Spirit (Triune God).

Heaven has released the command for a Holy Revolution to see the true Gospel rescued from the twisted gospel that represents a God of wrath and a Son of compassion. And Holy Spirit has been training up a Remnant in this generation whose hands have been cleansed and hearts have been purified. Though often labeled radical, they carry the very burning passion of the Lord to see the Saints liberated to enable them to walk in their Abba-purposed destinies and live the abundant life of liberty that Jesus purchased for them on the cross

In studying the scriptures, there is insurmountable evidence which is clearly seen in the life of Christ, how He perfectly represented His Father to the world, and in that re-presentation, we see in the Son, a perfect display of who the Father is, the God of Grace, Mercy, and Love.

It is that same nasty ole spirit of religion that is imprisoning many today in false doctrines, that sought to deny who the Son truly was, and went to great lengths of even having Him murdered on the cross.

Yet it unknowingly played right into the plans of the Father, Son, and Spirit in that the very death that it thought was its own victory ended up being its own sentence and striping of all power and authority that it had gained in the fall.

The chains of legalism are being demolished

Sadly with all the research ability we have today – with a history of God’s display of love just since the Resurrection of His Son, most of the Church still has a very legalistic mindset to where the very nature of the Father that Christ reintroduced to the world is lost in a very religious legalistic interpretation of the scriptures.

Yet let us Praise God, with shouts of JOY, for the appointed time is upon us when the wisdom of Heaven is going to break through the religious theological strongholds that have been imprisoning the sons and daughters of the Lord for centuries – for the hour when His human Temples begin to glow in the radiance of the wisdom and knowledge of His GLORY has NOW arrived.
