In recent times, the Church has faced profound challenges that extend beyond the physical realm; a strong religious political spirit has emerged, sowing chaos and division among believers.
This phenomenon, often characterized by manipulation and deception, is a call to action for the Spiritual Warriors within the Lord’s Remnant.
Their mission is to confront and dismantle this insidious force before it can do further damage to the faith community and the world at large.
“The political spirit is an invisible demonic mastermind that strategizes ways to thwart God’s plans; to achieve its corrupt goals, it enters into alliances with religious spirits and institutions often backed by mammon. The political spirit will always try to buy off, corrupt, manipulate and dominate leaders and groups of people. It mesmerizes people into false loyalties while issuing demands of uniformity through the pressures of fear, shame and control.“ ~James Goll
Rooted in ancient Egypt, this deceptive spirit seeks to undermine the destinies of individuals and entire nations, perpetuating a cycle of spiritual bondage that can only be broken through awareness, discernment, and proactive engagement.
The historical context of this religious political spirit can be traced back to the ancient Egyptians, who were known for their polytheistic beliefs and practices that often blurred the lines between spiritual authority and political power.
One of the key organizations that these spirits rule from is the Masonic order and there are certain denominations who are gateways into this demonic organization. It is time for the Remnant to cast aside ALL fear of man and begin to war against these evil forces in the spirit realm where we have been equipped with superior spiritual armor and weapons.
This intertwining of religion and governance gave rise to a system where spiritual leaders wield significant influence over the populace, often leading to manipulation and control.
In modern times, echoes of this ancient spirit can be observed in various religious and political institutions that prioritize power dynamics over genuine spiritual conviction.
This creates an environment ripe for division, where personal agendas overshadow the core tenets of faith, ultimately leading to disillusionment and discord among followers. The ramifications of this spirit’s influence are severe.
Many within the Church find themselves ensnared by deceptive delusions that distort their understanding of truth and righteousness.
These delusions manifest in various forms, from misguided teachings that stray from biblical principles to a culture of fear that silences dissenting voices.
As a result, believers may become pawns in a larger game of religious political maneuvering, undermining their spiritual growth and eroding their connection to God.
The call to action for the Spiritual Warriors is clear: they must rise to the occasion, utilizing their spiritual gifts and authority to confront this spirit head-on.
To effectively combat this chaos, the Lord’s Remnant must first engage in self-examination and prayer, seeking divine guidance to discern the workings of this spirit.
By fostering a culture of love, unity, and transparency, they can create an environment that counters the divisive nature of the religious political spirit.
This involves encouraging open dialogue, embracing a variety of thought within the framework of biblical truth, and actively participating in community outreach that reflects the heart of Christ.
Through these actions, the Church can reclaim its position as a beacon of hope and truth in a world yearning for genuine connection and purpose. Moreover, education plays a pivotal role in preventing the rise of deceptive delusions.
By equipping believers with sound theological knowledge and critical thinking skills, they can better navigate the complexities of faith in a modern world.
Strategic prayer meetings and small group discussions can serve as platforms for fostering healthy discourse and spiritual growth, empowering individuals to challenge false narratives and embrace their God-given destinies.
The more informed and anchored believers are in their faith, the better equipped they will be to recognize and resist the influence of the religious political spirit. In conclusion, the call to action for the Church is urgent and necessary.
The strong religious political spirit that has infiltrated the sacred spaces must be addressed by the Spiritual Warriors within the Lord’s Remnant.
By engaging in prayer, fostering unity, and emphasizing education, the Church can mitigate the chaos and division caused by this spirit, ultimately liberating many from its deceptive delusions.
“Particularly in these days of instant social messaging, we need to be alert to the influence of the political spirit around us. We have to work hard to keep our focus on God and not on the troubling and divisive contemporary issues unfolding around us, lest we react to them by joining the toxic fray, rather than being part of the solution. While we should fulfill our civic responsibilities and keep a level head while participating in our representative government, the best thing we can do is to pray and intercede in order to break the power of the demonic political spirit that causes divisions, animosity, and strife.” ~James Goll
The task is daunting, but with divine guidance and collective effort, the Church can reclaim its mission of love and truth, ushering in a season of healing and restoration that honors God and empowers His people.
We must determine once again to heed God’s word and wisdom, as found in verses like these ones – “Seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth” (Col 3:1, 2). “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things” (Phil 4:8).
We must pray and ask God for His peace and His wisdom in how to walk forward from this point, where to put our focus and energy in doing His will and releasing His Kingdom. We work on reframing how we see people, how we love them etc. so that we do so from a godly, righteous perspective.
Let us never forget that one of our greatest weapons is prayer, especially when it is in line with the scriptures and will of the Father.
Lord, I repent of being in agreement with a political spirit and allowing it to influence my life. I see the truth and come into agreement with Your perspective on this, and I come out of agreement with that spirit. I ask you to renew my mind. I separate myself from that spirit now, breaking its power over my life in Jesus’ name.
Lord help me to give no place in my heart to this spirit in the future. Give me Your love for people, even those that I strongly disagree with. Teach me how to hear their concerns and listen from the heart to their cries. Show me how to be a father or mother, a sister or brother, one who loves all of the people in my nation. Give me insights on how to be honoring and righteous, holding to righteous convictions while being patient with those who are living by a different standard. Give me a love for them, help me to see them through Your eyes and to pray for them, that they may have a revelation of Your love and Your plans for them.

In the vast landscape of the American Church, there exists a prevailing deception that has led many astray—the worship of a religious Jesus, a false idol constructed by the hands of men.
This distorted image of the Son of God has woven its tendrils deep within the fabric of faith, ensnaring believers in a web of counterfeit spirituality. Tragically, those who adhere to this artificial portrayal of Jesus find themselves shackled by chains of misconception, unable to grasp the fullness of their divine inheritance as liberated sons and daughters of the Most High.
Yet, amidst the shadows of deception, a flicker of divine light pierces through the darkness, illuminating the path to true liberation. It is the Holy Spirit, the divine breath of God, who has bestowed empowerment upon the Lord’s Remnant—the chosen few who have been called to uphold the Gospel of the True Jesus, the One and Only-begotten Son of God.

It is through this transformational journey of faith that the American Church will rise anew, united in the singular purpose of glorifying the name of the One and Only-begotten Son of God.
A Powerful Spiritual Shift is taking place in this hour
The prophetic words from Acts 2:17 speak of a time when God will pour out His Spirit upon all mankind, regardless of age or gender.
This outpouring will manifest in various ways, such as prophesying, seeing divine visions, and receiving inspired dreams. The passage foretells a time of spiritual awakening and empowerment, where individuals will be filled with the Holy Spirit to carry out God’s divine purposes.
In our present day, we are witnessing the fulfillment of this prophecy as Heaven releases a holy fire upon the Lord’s Remnant. This holy fire serves as a purifying force, burning away the false idols and distractions that have infiltrated the American Church.

As believers, we are called to embrace this move of God and allow ourselves to be vessels for His Holy Fire. We must be willing to let go of anything that hinders our relationship with Him and be open to the refining work of the Spirit.
Through this process, we can participate in the restoration and renewal of the Church, ushering in a season of Holy Spirit-led transformation and revival. In conclusion, the fulfillment of the prophetic word in Acts 2:17 is not a distant future event but a reality unfolding before our eyes.
The Holy Fire of God is sweeping through the Church, bringing about a spiritual awakening and preparing the way for a powerful reformation.
The Awakening of the Lord’s Remnant: A Divine Intervention
In the midst of the chaotic shifts and uncertainties of our current world, there is a profound awakening taking place. It is a spiritual awakening that has stirred the Lord’s Remnant from their slumber and called upon the Angel Armies of Heaven to stand by their side.
Under the guiding hand of the Holy Spirit, these chosen warriors have been deployed to the front lines of a celestial battle—a battle for the very soul of our nation.
Empowered by the authority of the Son of God, seated at the right hand of the Father in Heaven, the Remnant now stands ready to unleash the transformative power of the Spiritual winds.
These winds, imbued with divine purpose and unwavering faith, are poised to sweep across our land, bringing with them a profound shift back to the sovereign authority of the Lord Jesus Christ.
As we stand on the precipice of this spiritual revolution, it is imperative that we open our eyes to the reality of this divine intervention. The forces at play are far greater than mere mortal comprehension—they are forces of cosmic significance, orchestrated by the hand of the Almighty Himself.
In this pivotal moment, we are called upon to heed the call of the Remnant, to align ourselves with the Angel Armies of Heaven, and to surrender to the unwavering authority of the Holy Spirit.

The time is now—let us embrace this sacred moment and be forever changed by the power of the Lord’s Remnant. We must at all cost, be receptive to the move of the Spirit, allowing His fire to purify and empower us for the work He has called us to do.

Unraveling the Prophecy of David’s Tabernacle
The idea of reviving David’s Tabernacle captures the interest of many scholars and those who study the end times. It’s based on passages like Amos 9:11-12 and Acts 15:16-17. This prophecy has led to a lot of talk and different views in the Christian world. By looking closely at the Bible and the Davidic Covenant, we get a better grip on this mysterious prophecy.
Scriptural Foundations and Interpretations
The prophecy about bringing back David’s Tabernacle comes from Amos. In it, the prophet talks about fixing the ‘fallen booth of David’ (Amos 9:11). Over time, different ideas have surfaced about what this means.
Some say it will actually be rebuilt, just like the old days. Others think it’s more about the Davidic Covenant and God’s kingdom being set up. In Acts, James links this prophecy to the growth of the first Christians (Acts 15:16-17). That adds another layer to understanding it.
Examining the Davidic Covenant
The Davidic Covenant is key to explaining the Tabernacle prophecy. God made this covenant with King David. It promised David he’d have a forever lasting kingdom (2 Samuel 7:12-16). The Tabernacle had a strong meaning in this promise and in the Bible’s bigger story.
Perspective on the Tabernacle’s comeback varies. Some say it will physically be built again. Others feel it’s about renewing the Davidic Covenant and God’s kingdom on earth. These ideas have influenced Christian discussions about the end times.
Looking deeper at David’s Tabernacle prophecy, we find many insights in the Bible. Each view adds something to understanding the end times for Christians. This study paves the way for more exploration on the prophecy’s meaning in upcoming sections.
The Physical Restoration Perspective
Some think David’s Tabernacle should be rebuilt exactly. They are called literalists. Literalists believe a real, physical Tabernacle must be built before the end times. They focus on precise verses in the Bible to back their point. Amos 9:11-12 and Acts 15:16-17 are examples. They see a direct command for the Tabernacle to be rebuilt, not just a spiritual idea.
They argue that the Tabernacle’s return is key to the end times. It marks a significant moment in biblical prophecy. For them, the Tabernacle’s physical return signals the close arrival of God’s Kingdom on Earth.
Literalists and Their Arguments
Literalists deeply study passages like Amos 9:11-12 and Acts 15:16-17. They find that these verses show a clear plan for a real Tabernacle. They claim that the Bible’s detailed descriptions of the Tabernacle prove it should be physically rebuilt.
Moreover, they connect the Tabernacle’s restoration to end times events. To them, it’s a sign that Christ’s return is near. They believe the Tabernacle’s return is a turning point in God’s plan for Earth.
Rooted in a literal interpretation of scriptural passages
Believe in the physical, and material rebuilding of the ancient Tabernacle
View the restoration as a precursor to the end times and the Kingdom of God
“The restoration of David’s Tabernacle is not merely a symbolic or spiritual event, but a tangible, physical reality that must take place before the establishment of God’s eternal Kingdom on Earth.”
Literalists truly believe in the physical rebuilding of David’s Tabernacle. They see it as essential in understanding biblical prophecies. Their strict adherence to the literal meaning of the Bible guides their views on this subject.
Is the Restoration of David’s Tabernacle – Physical or Spiritual
The debate about restoring David’s Tabernacle is very intense in the study of biblical prophecy and Christian teachings about the end times. The main question is whether its restoration is a physical or spiritual process.
Some argue for a physical restoration, saying the Bible indicates a real rebuild of the ancient structure in Jerusalem. They use passages about the Davidic dynasty and temple rebuilding to support this idea. They believe God’s kingdom will be fulfilled on earth in the end times.
Yet, others suggest a spiritual meaning. They think the prophecies are symbolic, showing a spiritual change within believers. They see the New Testament’s reference to the church as the temple of the Holy Spirit as supporting their view. To them, the restoration symbolizes spiritual revival within God’s people at the end times.

When looking at David’s Tabernacle’s restoration, it’s key to understand its symbolic meaning. This deeper level of meaning shows us the Tabernacle’s role in God’s kingdom. It also reveals how it can spark a spiritual awakening.
Unveiling the Spiritual Significance
Different people see the Tabernacle of David in various ways. For many, it represents God’s presence and his Kingdom. Restoring it could lead to deep spiritual growth and a new time of worship. It was more than a building but a sign of God’s connection to his people.
Seeing the Tabernacle this way changes its restoration. It’s more than just fixing a structure but about starting a spiritual renewal. This could lead to a stronger focus on God’s Kingdom, better worship, and a clear sense of God’s presence in believers’ lives.
“The restoration of David’s Tabernacle is not just about bricks and mortar, but about the restoration of a worshipping generation that will usher in the Kingdom of God.”

This view encourages a prophetic outlook on the future. It sees believers as key in bringing about God’s Kingdom through worship and a deep commitment to his presence.
End Times and the Restoration

The rebuilding will gather the Remnant, a generation ready to lead a spiritual awakening. This group’s role is crucial in fulfilling God’s plans. It will boost them to their calling.
The world faces big problems now. But, the Tabernacle’s restoration brings hope. It encourages believers to be strong and serve as change-makers in the Christian future story.
A Worshipping Generation
We are exploring the idea of restoring David’s Tabernacle. It can mean bringing back a physical or spiritual place. In this journey, we find a critical part: the rise of a worshipping generation. This group, following the remnant rally call, will be key. They will help start a spiritual awakening and the coming kingdom of God.
The dream of a worshipping bunch comes from the old Davidic Covenant. David was deeply devoted to God. He wanted to make a home for God’s Presence. This vision acts as a guide now. Those who respond to this calling will be sparks. They will start a fire of worship all around.
The Remnant’s Role in Restoration
This revival is led by a remnant. They are a steadfast group in their faith, despite the changing world. These believers, filled with the Holy Spirit, will lead. They will work towards the return of true worship.
They will achieve this through their strong devotion, powerful prayers, and divine messages. Their efforts will make the way clear for this heavenly mission.
The remnant will lead a revival, starting a love for worship and God’s presence.
They will proclaim the Davidic Covenant’s truth. This will stir a new passion for God’s kingdom.
Their lives will be a shining light of genuine worship. It will draw people to God’s presence.
As the remnant steps up, they bring hope and unite the faithful. Their dedication brings back a culture of praise. This paves the road for a big spiritual rebirth.
“The Lord will rebuild Zion and appear in his glory. He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; he will not despise their plea.” (Psalm 102:16-17)

In this present hour, as darkness seeks to envelop the world and extinguish the flame of righteousness, there is a clarion call echoing through the realms of heaven and earth. It is a call to arms, a summons to gather the remnant, the faithful few who shall stand as an unyielding force against the onslaught of evil.
For the rise of the Lord’s last days army is upon us, and its purpose is to herald the dawn of a new era, an era of unprecedented glory and triumph. Who are these remnants, these chosen warriors who shall bear the standard of the Almighty?
They are not the proud and self-righteous, but the humble and contrite. They are those who have been broken by the weight of sin and yet have found grace and redemption at the foot of the cross. They are those who have endured trials and tribulations with steadfast faith, their spirits unyielding in the face of adversity. They are those who have renounced the allurements of the world and embraced the narrow path of righteousness.
The remnant is rising, and they are rising to meet a destiny that has been ordained from the foundation of the world.

For the rise of the remnant is here, and the victory is ours! Get Ready – The Remnant is Rising
The question is brothers and sisters, Are you ready?
In the modern American Church, there is a growing concern among dedicated disciples of Jesus, His Spiritual Warriors. It is a concern rooted in the recognition that secularism has quietly infiltrated the very heart of our faith. The world’s spirit, disguised as modernity and progress, has seeped into our pews, subtly influencing our beliefs and practices. But there is hope on the horizon, a glimmer of light that promises a revival like no other.
The coming revival is not a mere wishful thinking; it is a prophetic call to action for all who long to see the Church restored to its true purpose. It is a call to expose the hidden influences of the world and to uncover the false teachings that have crept into our midst. It is a call to confront the pervasive grip of secularism and reclaim the undiluted message of the Gospel.
Revival, by definition, implies a restoration of something that has been lost or diminished. In the context of the modern American Church, revival means rediscovering the power and authority of God’s Word, unearthing the transformative message of salvation, and re-establishing the Church as a beacon of hope in a world desperate for truth and meaning.
To achieve this revival, we must first acknowledge the presence of secularism within our own ranks. We must recognize the subtle ways it has influenced our theology, diluted our worship, and compromised our commitment to biblical values. Only by exposing the spirit of the world can we begin to dismantle its stronghold on the modern American Church.
Moreover, we must courageously confront the false teachings that have infiltrated our congregations. From prosperity gospel to moral relativism, these erroneous doctrines have distorted the true essence of Christianity, leading many astray. By uncovering these false teachings, we can guide our fellow believers back to the solid foundation of God’s Word, restoring their faith in the one true Gospel.
But perhaps the most urgent task in this revival is to reveal the influence of secularism. Secularism, with its emphasis on self-gratification, materialism, and individualism, has seeped into the very fabric of our society. And sadly, it has not spared the Church. By exposing the ways in which secularism has compromised our values, we can reestablish a countercultural Christianity that stands against the tide of moral relativism and offers a compelling alternative to the emptiness of the world.
The coming revival is not a distant dream; it is a call to action for dedicated disciples of Jesus. It is a rallying cry to expose the spirit of the world, uncover false teachings, and reveal the influence of secularism in the modern American Church. As we embark on this journey, let us be bold in our pursuit of truth, unwavering in our commitment to the Gospel, and steadfast in our belief that the Church can once again shine brightly in a dark and secular world.
For the Remnant has received its orders from Holy Spirit, that the courts of Heaven have decreed, Now is the hour for the offensive move of the Remnant Army of the Lord. The trumpets of Heaven are sounding the alarm to send forth the Spiritual Warriors to seek out the spiritual strongholds the enemy has built within the cultures of this world that have been trojan horses, released their doctrines of deception into the Church, carried forth by human puppets of Hell.
Once these Spiritual Warriors of the Lord find them they are equipped with the power and authority of Heaven to use the the weapons of truth and love to dismantle these strongholds and release their captives. The hour of liberation is upon us, a supernatural spiritual reformation is about to unfold that the world hasn’t witnessed since the birth of the Ekklesia.
Below is the task that lies before the Remnant with the knowledge that the challenge is not above or beyond their ability, for the Lord has provided them with every spiritual weapon necessary to overcome the enemy along with the spiritual capability to win the victory. Holy Spirit has been clear in what the assignment is and has been ever so intentional as to what the spiritual strategic strategies are that they are to follow.
The Subtle Invasion of Secularism
In today’s modern American Church, there is a quiet and insidious invasion taking place. It is an invasion of secularism, a worldview that seeks to replace the authority of God with the wisdom of man. This invasion is not overt or obvious, but rather subtle and covert. It creeps into the hearts and minds of believers, slowly eroding their faith and diluting the power of the Gospel.
To the dedicated disciples of Jesus, it is crucial to be aware of this subtle invasion and to guard against its influence. Secularism is a spirit of the world that seeks to conform the Church to its values and beliefs. It disguises itself in various forms, often cloaked in the language of tolerance, progress, and intellectualism. But make no mistake, its ultimate goal is to chip away at the foundations of our faith and render the Church ineffective in its mission.
One of the ways secularism infiltrates the Church is through false teachings. These teachings may appear harmless on the surface, but they subtly distort the truth of God’s Word. They emphasize worldly values such as self-fulfillment, success, and material prosperity, while neglecting the true call of discipleship – taking up our cross and following Jesus. False teachings lead believers astray, focusing their attention on worldly pursuits rather than the eternal kingdom of God.
Another way secularism invades the modern American Church is through the influence of popular culture. The Church, in its desire to be relevant, often embraces the trends and values of the world. This compromises the purity and holiness of our faith. We see it in the music we sing, the movies we watch, and the books we read. The Church must be vigilant in discerning what is of God and what is of the world, for we cannot serve two masters.
Secularism also infiltrates the Church through a distorted understanding of grace. While grace is a beautiful and essential aspect of our faith, it should never be used as an excuse for compromise or complacency. Secularism twists grace into a license to indulge in sin, undermining the call to holy living and obedience to God’s commands.
As the Remnant of the Lord, operating in our abilities of spiritual discernment we must expose the spirit of the world hidden within the modern American Church. We must uncover false teachings and confront those who seek to dilute the truth of the Gospel. Let us be vigilant in revealing the influence of secularism and standing firm in the faith, for only then can we fulfill our mission to be salt and light in a dark and secular world.
The Dangers of Compromise
In today’s modern American Church, compromise has become an all-too-common occurrence. It is a subtle erosion of our faith, a dangerous path that leads us away from the truth and toward a watered-down version of Christianity. As the Kingdom’s Spiritual Warriors, commanded by Holy Spirit, we must be aware of the dangers that compromise presents and take a stand against it.
Compromise may seem harmless at first, as it often presents itself as a way to bridge the gap between the secular world and our faith. But make no mistake, this insidious spirit of compromise is nothing more than an attempt to dilute the power of the Gospel and conform it to the values of the world. It seeks to please man rather than please God.
One of the most significant dangers of compromise is the hidden infiltration of the spirit of the world within the modern American Church. As followers of Christ, we are called to be in the world but not of the world (John 17:16). Yet, compromise blurs the lines, making it difficult to distinguish between what is godly and what is worldly. It leads to a lukewarm faith, where we pick and choose which aspects of the Bible to follow based on our own desires and the ever-changing trends of society.
Furthermore, compromise allows false teachings to seep into the fabric of the Church. It opens the door for doctrines that are contrary to the Word of God, leading to confusion and deception among believers. We must be vigilant in uncovering these false teachings and standing firm on the unchanging truth of the Gospel. Without a solid foundation in God’s Word, we are susceptible to being led astray by the cunning lies of the enemy.
Perhaps one of the most alarming dangers of compromise is the influence of secularism within the modern American Church. Secularism seeks to remove God from every aspect of our lives, replacing Him with humanism, materialism, and moral relativism. When compromise takes hold, we unwittingly become vessels for secular ideologies, diluting the power of our faith and conforming to the world’s standards rather than God’s.
As dedicated Spiritual Warriors, as the Remnant of the Lord, must recognize the dangers of compromise and take a stand against it. We must be diligent in exposing the spirit of the world hidden within the modern American Church, uncovering false teachings, and revealing the influence of secularism. Let us not be swayed by the ever-changing tides of society but stand firm on the unchanging truth of God’s Word. Only then can we truly be a light in the darkness and effectively impact the world for Christ.
The Call to Discernment
In the modern American Church, a subtle but dangerous influence has taken hold – the grip of secularism. This insidious force has infiltrated the very core of our faith, leading many astray and compromising the integrity of the Church. It is a call to arms, a call to discernment, for dedicated disciples of Jesus to rise up and expose the spirit of the world hidden within our midst.
Secularism has blurred the lines between biblical truth and the values of society. It whispers enticing lies, tempting believers to compromise their convictions and conform to the ever-changing whims of culture. False teachings have seeped into our pulpits, disguised as progressive ideologies and watered-down messages. It is imperative that we uncover these falsehoods and reclaim the purity of the Gospel.
To answer this call, we must first understand the influence of secularism. It is a mindset that places human reason and desires above God’s Word. It exalts the individual and dismisses the authority of scripture. In doing so, it erodes the foundation of our faith and replaces it with moral relativism.
Discernment is the weapon we must wield against this encroaching darkness. We must diligently study the Word of God, immersing ourselves in its truth and allowing it to shape our thoughts and actions. We must be vigilant in recognizing false teachings and exposing them for what they are – distortions of God’s Word.
But discernment is not limited to knowledge alone. It requires a heart surrendered to God, a spirit that seeks His guidance and wisdom. It is a call to prayer, to seek the Holy Spirit’s leading in all aspects of our lives. Through prayer, we can discern the spirit of the world that seeks to infiltrate our churches and counteract it with the power of God’s truth.
As dedicated disciples of Jesus, we have a responsibility to stand against the influence of secularism in the modern American Church. We must be bold in our proclamation of the Gospel, unafraid to confront false teachings and expose the lies that threaten to dilute our faith. It is through discernment that we can reclaim the Church’s true identity as a beacon of light in a dark world.
The call to discernment is not an easy one, but it is a necessary one. It is a call to be vigilant, to be unwavering in our commitment to God’s Word. It is a call to expose the spirit of the world hidden within the modern American Church, to uncover false teachings, and to reveal the influence of secularism. Let us heed this call, for the sake of our faith and the future of the Church.
I will leave you with this prayer from the Apostle of Grace, Paul:
Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and charity unto all the saints,cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers;that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him; illuminating the eyes of your understanding, that ye may know what is the hope of his calling and what are the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints. (Ephesians 1:15-18, Jubilee)
Persevere in prayer and watch in the same with thanksgiving, praying also together for us that God would open unto us the door of the word, to speak the mystery of the Christ, for which I am also in bonds, that I may make it manifest, as I ought to speak. (Colossians 4:2-4)
As we enter into 2024, at Highway to Heaven Church, we have been petitioning the Throne room and thanking the Father for opening the door for a new meeting place for our Kingdom family, where we will be able to host His presence more than just on Sunday morning (Romans 4:17, 8:25).
We as a Kingdom family fully believe in and trust in the Lord’s ability to open new doors, especially understanding the prophetic meaning of the year 5784 on the Jewish Calender, as that of “The Year of Open Doors”.
In a recent conversation with a very dear prophetic friend of mine, he told me that over the past few months, the Lord has been speaking to him about my life, HTHC, and Remnant Warrior ministries. During those discussions, the Lord has been showing him an increase in family members and seeing an expansion of these two ministries overall.
He showed him a door opening, and upon walking through it, he saw the establishment of healing rooms ministry. He said the Lord reminded him of how He had positioned me as co-director of a healing room ministry here in Jacksonville.
Then the Lord showed him that we would be able to hold prayer meetings regularly. (This has been my heart’s cry for a new location. Especially during this hour, for we would be holding such prayer vigils specifically to hold our Jewish brothers and sisters and the nation of Israel up in prayer).
He said that he also saw that with this new location, we will also be able to hold Bible studies and other teaching meetings geared to equip the Body.
One thing he said the Lord was strongly emphasizing was discipleship and the training the be part of the ministry’s focus on raising up the next generation of Church Elders and Shepherds, which includes allowing them to lead meetings and other such leadership functions.
My friend ended with the Lord telling him that is the reason He had brought me into the study of the revelation of what it looks like to be submitted to living under His governing authority.
He did this so that my wife and I would understand the importance and the power of living a life totally surrendered to the Government of the Godhead.
It is also our desire to expand our ministry reach both from Highway To Heaven Church and Remnant Warrior ministries in my wife’s homeland, the nation of the Philippines. My friend said he saw my wife leading multiple missionary teams into that nation, as well as our being able to establish New Creation Ranch there, a discipleship-focused ministry, purposed for the transformation of nations and cultures by training up Mountain Moving Disciples.
It is an exciting time, to say the least, but with that commissioning comes the responsibility to seek the Lord’s guidance in every move we make, to be intentional in all we do with the desire to walk and live as our Lord did to where we say nothing nor take any action until we hear from and view the Father doing such.
With this we are asking all those connected to us to keep us lifted up in prayer, as it is our desire that the Lord alone, get the Glory and that it is His name alone that we represent, taking no glory for ourselves or our ministry efforts, for we completely under the conviction that we could do nothing and would be nothing without our Jesus.
“Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20)
I have contended for several years now that the discipleship model Jesus gave us has been lost in the mainstream Church and we are witnessing the harvest of that today from our teens all the way up to those in the 20 – 40 year old range.
My son and I traveled to Paris Kentucky at the end of summer in 2020, to visit the historic site of Cane Ridge Revival. Within 30 minutes of leaving that location, Holy Spirit took me into a vision and told me when I returned home, I was to begin discipling individuals in the discipleship methods of the Lord.
At first, I said Lord I will do just that, but then I asked Him “What does that look like?” After He explained this, I mulled it over for a few hours, and then at our next gas stop I penned the following down:
“A Discipleship Ministry Dedicated to Training up Mountain Moving Disciples”
Reviving the relationally centered discipleship methods of Christ our Lord. Transactional in that we invest our lives (not religious programs) in others as the Lord invested His life into ours which births a transforming nature of the new birth (New Creation) which starts in the heart of Christ in us and begins the supernatural growth of the inward to that of the outward.
From there we see that when we allow Holy Spirit to use His Spiritual authority over the way we act and think, will birth a reforming (Reshaping) of who we have been purposefully reborn into, to that of a matured son or daughter with a destiny of becoming just like our Messiah and King, Christ our LORD.
Thus, we have been reborn of the Spirit into the original image, created in the very image of Father, Son, and Spirit.
So to sum up the process of Christ-like discipleship ministry: The whole purpose and foundation are that of training up disciples in the same Spiritual pattern that Jesus used in discipling His disciples; pouring everything (transactional) the Father poured into Him into the disciples, which caused an inward “transformation” which then sparks the new birth (New Creation) in the individual, which then manifests an outward Re-formation to where having gone through a Spiritual metamorphosis process, they end up looking and acting just like Jesus.
For thus has the LORD said to every man of Judah and of Jerusalem, break up your fallow ground, and do not sow among thorns. (Jeremiah 4:3)
Now, when you throw Jeremiah 4:3 into the mix, you get a deeper meaning of what Jesus meant when He gave the parable of seeds in Matthew 13:1-23 to understand that true Biblical discipleship is a patient process, yet when done in the manner for which our Lord discipled His disciples the harvest can be world-changing.
“We are coworkers with God and you are God’s cultivated garden, the house he is building” (1 Corinthians 3:9)
Bill Johnson said “I am not concerned with building big Churches, I am invested in building Big disciples”
This is the heart of the Lord, to disciple Mountain Moving Disciples, and it should be that same desire of every Congregation. Instead, the majority of the modern American Church focuses on building bigger, and bigger, and bigger churches with multiple campuses, while at the same grossly missing the mark of discipleship.
Critics who are fans of these religious enterprises defensively claim that isn’t true. Yet the harvest we are witnessing in our nation amongst the 18 to 40-year-olds begs to differ with that assumption, if it were not true, we would see beautiful Kingdom fruit being manifested in the lives of radically transformed individuals, possessing the likeness of our Lord.
Many incorrectly view the huge church model as a validation of the founder’s calling and ministry, which is steeped in world philosophy, which in turn would view the ministry of our Lord, going from several thousand to just 12, as a complete and utter failure. The truth is Jesus never tasked us with building Churches, whether big or small, He clearly stated He would build the Ekklesia (Matthew 16:18), and we are to make disciples (Matthew 28:19).
Last Sunday Night while relaxing I decided to get a brief update on the war in Israel. In the clip that I watched a military strategist was explaining that in the weeks leading up to the siege into Gaza, the IDF had strategically staged its military forces in a staging area. As soon as I heard the word staging area Holy Spirit began speaking to me.
He said that is exactly what the Father has purposed Me to do with the Ekklesia. For the Lord’s ekklesia was never purposed to be a warehouse of saints. It was purposed to be a staging area of the Lord’s army, where they are gathered, given assignments, and sent out to expand the Kingdom via Spiritual warfare. The day of warehousing the saints is coming to a close.
He went on the say “I AM” directing My oils of anointing onto those families who are purposed to serve the King, His Kingdom, hungering for His Righteousness, not their own.
I am not speaking out against mega Churches although they do eat up most of the Lord’s resources in order to keep the religious machine’s ability to stay afloat. Whereas, using military terms, smaller groups of spiritually trained elite forces respond more quickly and covertly get into areas and accomplish some very big.
Then last night He began speaking to me about the parable of the seed in light of Jeremiah 4:3, and 1 Corinthians 3:9 and the need to disciple individuals in the method Jesus used, to cultivate the hard soil they come into the Body with, losing it up to become good soil.
And when we look at the verse in Jeremiah, we are the soil as well as though whom we are called to disciple, even as He had patience with us so much, we have patience with them. I don’t know if any of you have made a garden, but it can be labor, to say the least. But with work, you can prepare the ground. However, the reason you do not want to plant in an area with thorn bushes is that it can be very difficult to rid the soil of their seed.
Even rocky soil or dry soil can be difficult and time-consuming, however, if Holy Spirit directs you to take on hard cases, those who are difficult to disciple, you can trust that He will give you the grace to do so. Remember, we would not need a comforter if we weren’t going to be called into some uncomfortable situations.
This is the reason that patience is needed, but we must understand the spiritual principles of cultivating the soil of the culture. For whatever reason, the Church to a large degree has done a very bad job of that and in some cases, they have failed, whereas the culture of the world has greatly influenced them.
I live in a city filled with mega Churches, and their whole system is based on a worldly business model, from the marketing to the worship (performance-based). I know their members, or should I say fans of these religious institutions don’t like to hear that, but I see very little fruit of the Kingdom in this city. High crime, high divorce, child sex trafficking.
There are some that are somewhat new, but others that have been here for over 20 years. It took approximately 30 years for the first-century Church to turn one of the most paganistic idol-worshipping cities of that time, Ephesus, into a city burning with the flames of awakening and reformation. There is no indication of that happening in this city, and it grows worse by the year.
If we are to be honest, we must admit that the Church has done a terrible job at making good, healthy, tilled soil for seeds to fall on and have an actual chance to grow here. It has been way more concerned about its appearance and ability to fill its seat in order to receive the money to keep the engines of its religious machines running. And they’ve done this at a very high cost, to our families, cities, and nation.
They say they want a true Biblical revival to come to the Church, but they deceive themselves and remain selfish. A true Biblical revival would tear down the religious doctrines, and dismantle their man-centered leadership and such a revival would move the people into a righteous hunger to desire the authentic Kingdom more than the performance-based dead religious institutions led by the American idolized celebrity preachers that scatter this nation.
I hear Holy Spirit saying that Heaven is seeking a generation that comes to know Jesus like those in the first century, who will willing to face death just to be in an intimate relationship with their Lord. To see a burning people whose lives spark a revival within the mainstream Church, that comes out of their spiritual complacency and religious dogmas to carry those flames into every mountain of influence in our nation sparking a nationwide awakening that birth a nationwide Spiritual re-formation. And then carries those flames throughout the nations.
What I keep hearing as I tune into the frequencies of Heaven is that we are in a very critical urgent hour. The enemy has made great advances in spewing his evil doctrines throughout our cultures, strongmen are currently guarding the gates of influence in every nation. The call to the Remnant is to begin to strike with precision Spiritual prayer missiles so as to demolish these strongholds, to bind up these strongmen and retake the gates and occupy them to the Glory of the Lord.
The Father is so emphatic about this that He has sent His Angel Armies to assist His Ekklesia in this hour with the commands released from the courts of Heaven:
“Now is the time to launch a global offensive military strike to begin bringing the nation of the world under the dominion authority of King Jesus.”
First, we must remember that judgment does start in the house of the lord, we need to make room for His Apostles to establish the judgments of the courts of Heaven that the Father is releasing through His prophets in this hour. And we will know (rightly discern) that they are the judgment of the Father for even though they will be painful for a season they shall be wrapped in His love.
As well we must be totally surrendered to the governing authority of Holy Spirit, even as He judges our hearts as to what is of the Father and what is not. I can tell you from personal experience, that this will cause a place where if the flesh is still ruling within us, to be humbled and ultimately bow to the Lordship of Holy Spirit.
Yet we must surrender to this process if we want to be used by God in this hour, for we, like Jesus, must not have any place in our lives where the enemy can have influence, we must allow Holy Spirit to seek those places out so that we can lay them at the altar of the Lord and give Him permission to occupy those places. And I can’t emphasize this enough, we must allow the process of being consecrated under to the Lord have its course. As this opens wide the door of His sanctification.
Now, while the urgent message of returning to the methods of discipleship as taught by our Lord is clear, one of the main issues that He has shown me is the need to realize that in discipleship the invitation of intimacy must first be opened by the discipler. We must be willing to make ourselves completely vulnerable to those we are discipling. Just the thought of this can be very scary. Yet, if we look closely at how Jesus made Himself emotionally vulnerable to His disciples, we will see a potent spiritual weapon.
We know the enemy is aware of this as he has tried to corrupt this to turn people away from it. He was done so through to perversion of many who have taken advantage of those entrusted to them either emotionally or sexually or both. I can hear the Lord calling us to be the generation who unseats these spirits of perversion and walks in holiness with purity of hearts and motives. That is why it is so vital that we must ask Holy Spirit to baptize us in His FIRE.
Are we willing to pay the cost of being the generation who returns to discipling this generation according to the methods used by our Lord and His disciples? Are we ready to be hated and ostracized and made fun of by the world and the Institutional; man-centered Church?
I am more than confident, having spent time with Holy Spirit in the scriptures that when we start to make disciples Biblically, we will tear down societal structure and ultimately make the Remnant look like some sort of fanatical crazy Jesus-loving cult.
To actually be a Spiritual family of radical lovers of Jesus that lives together, who creates and runs businesses together, who adopts hundreds of children and even opens homes for them and establishes whole communities of faith-filled believers who hunger but for the King, His Kingdom, and His Righteousness.
After all, that is exactly what happened to the first-century believers who turned the known world upside down with the Gospel message of Christ and His Kingdom.

For although we live in the natural realm, we don’t wage a military campaign employing human weapons, using manipulation to achieve our aims. Instead, our spiritual weapons are energized with divine power to effectively dismantle the defenses behind which people hide. We can demolish every deceptive fantasy that opposes God and break through every arrogant attitude that is raised up in defiance of the true knowledge of God. We capture, like prisoners of war, every thought and insist that it bow in obedience to the Anointed One. Since we are armed with such dynamic weaponry, we stand ready to punish any trace of rebellion, as soon as you choose complete obedience. (2 Corinthians 10:3-6, TPT)
I have to be honest here, that since October 8, 2023, when the terrorist individuals who are part of the Hamas terrorist organization entered the sovereign nation of Israel, butchering around 1400 innocent Israelis from babies to the elderly, raping women, and dragging over 200 hostages back into Gaza, my emotions have been raw and on edge.
Over the past few weeks watching these hate-filled protests in our streets and on our educational campuses, and the pure evil coming out of their mouths and messages painted on their signs, I have to admit that it has stirred up some fleshly responses from within me, and in hindsight, I realize I should have been glued to the WORD rather than the news.
Last night was the tipping point which ended up with my spending several hours wrestling with this spiritually in what first appeared as a life-and-death battle. You see, over the course of the past 3 weeks, due mainly to watching news reports surrounding the war in Israel which has spilled over into the streets of many nations, I had opened the door allowing the devil to make little invasive entrances into my thought life which was why I now found myself in a major spiritual battle.
Towards the end of this spiritual battle, somewhere around 3:00 a.m. this morning the Lord broke through the battle lines and rescued me. Yet He first corrected me in His loving way, as He once again took me back through my life like He had in 2016. It was a journey that took me back to where I could see all the actions I had done which had at that time grieved His heart and once again He showed me His forgiveness and love.
You might ask – Why did the Lord take you there?
I believe He did this as it is was where the enemy had taken me during the battle, except his (the devil’s) strategy was not to bring me to the place of remembering all the forgiveness and love that the Lord showered over me in that encounter with Him several years prior but rather to get me to take back all the pains of my past in including all the guilt and shame that the Lord had healed and delivered me from. The enemy wanted to sink me back to my past, to where I would respond to all the events and people involved with the war in Israel and the anti-semitism in our nation with as much hatred as I could muster up. And to use all that hatred in response to those who are currently filling our airwaves, social media platforms, streets, and schools with hate.
However, the Lord took me to the same place so as to open my eyes in order to see that it was actually His love that sustained me. In His grace and mercy, even though I did nothing to deserve it for it was during those years of not walking with Him, that the actions of my life were not coming from a heart of love. In fact, I was not a very loving individual at all, I was actually a very selfish, self-centered, hate-filled prideful individual who cared about no one else but myself.
One might ask what led me to be like that?
Well, first let me give praise, honor, and glory to my Lord, who healed me of All the wounds and pain of those years, including washing all the guilt and shame away in 2016 just a few months before I turned 52.
After which over the course of around 7 months, Holy Spirit revealed to me that it was not due to my being born wicked, but rather that it was mostly due in part to the actions of other individuals in my life, who unknowingly through a divorce, allowed a door to be opened in my life, which once opened the enemy took full advantage by filling my life with demonic spiritual leeches such as the spirits of rejection, bitterness, abandonment, jealousy, and unforgiveness.
All of this led to my having a very negative and self-destructive view of myself, especially with regard to how I perceived how others looked at me. You see when the enemy has an opening into one’s soul, especially at a young age, he comes in with everything he has to invade and sets up camp (mental and emotional strongholds) with the intent of never surrendering the place of occupation.
Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring [in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. (1 Peter 5:8, AMPC)
Which led to years of drug and other addictions all in an attempt to stop the pain. We must understand that it is the “soul” intention of the enemy to bring chaos, sickness, destruction, and ultimately death to every one of God’s creations.
Thus, the Lord retraced where the enemy had taken me over the past 3 weeks, all in an attempt to ensnare me once again in the prison of my emotions. Which ultimately led me to this major spiritual battle I had last night. It even led me to the place of being physically sick.
By this course of action, the Lord was able to show me how the powerful prayers of my mother and others had all led me to that little room in an inn in Saluda North Carolina in March of 2016.
For in truth, it was that very encounter that radically set me free, as the Lord poured out rivers of His love that that life a very hot intense fire, went back all the way to my infancy and dismantled every stronghold of sin, shame, and guilt that the enemy had established in my life.
Then during my encounter with Him last night, He showed me in all I can describe as 3-D imagery, how those prayers of faith that had been prayed for me, carried the powerful Light of His Glory which supernaturally smashed through the dark prison walls that the enemy had built around my soul, crushing the demonic chains that had held in me captive for all those years.
At the end of this encounter this morning, He took me to 2 Corinthians 10:3-6 and said;
“These are the weapons that I have given you and My Remnant to overcome the evil that is warring against My people and it shall be used against the realms of darkness, not just to protect My people but to also set those who have been taken captive by it free. For you and My Remnant are fully equipped and commissioned by My Father to win the war against these demonic evil forces. But you must not let your guard down, you must not allow the devil to bring you down to his level of fighting. I won the victory over him in the grave and My Father has fully authorized and empowered My Bride to enforce that victory.”
This ended with the Lord saying “Champion the gates”.
As I woke up this morning, Holy Spirit immediately took me to these passages and said “The battle must be won in the Spirit, for it cannot be won in the flesh!!!
We must be persistent in seeking Holy Spirit’s direction regarding Spirit Warfare on a daily basis, unlike the President’s daily briefings, we can count on Holy Spirit giving us actuate intel regarding the spiritual locations of the enemy’s strongholds, the demonic actors we are facing, the plans of the enemy, as well as Heaven’s strategy to stand overcome each of them, standing in the position of victory.
We must stay in the Spirit to prevent the enemy from dragging us into viewing others according to the flesh rather we must walk in the revelation that Paul wrote in 2 Corinthians 5:16;
“Therefore from now on we know no one according to the flesh: and even if we have known Christ according to the flesh, yet now we know him no longer”
Thus, we must discern and direct our warfare against the spiritual beings from the realms of darkness that have taken them hostage, and strategically pray according to Holy Spirit’s direction. In doing so I believe that we will witness many being set free.
And rightly so, for the WORD declares that our first ministry is that of reconciling the lost into a loving intimate relationship with the Father (2 Corinthians 5:18).
We must be accustomed to battle from our war rooms (Prayer closets) knowing that we have been authorized to use every Spiritual weapon we have been given access to in Christ our Lord, to overcome the plans of the enemy.
So, with “Great faith” let us direct our prayer to free those who have become intoxicated with demonic doctrines of lies, seeing them set free from the realms of darkness via prayers that are spiritually designed to weaken the spiritual hold that the enemy has on their lives, smashing the spiritual chains that have held them in captivity and opening the door so that they may enter the Kingdom of Light (Colossians 1:13).

But the love of God will be perfected within the one who obeys God’s Word. We can be sure that we’ve truly come to live in intimacy with God, not just by saying, “I am intimate with God,” but by walking in the footsteps of Jesus. (1 John 2:5-6, TPT)
What does one who walks in the revelation of being the Lord’s beloved look like?
He is faithful, courageous, and loving. He is also a witness to the truth of Jesus’ identity and mission.
The Beloved identity is important because it speaks to the nature of Jesus’ love. Jesus’ love is not partial or conditional. It is a love that is given freely and unconditionally, even to those who are considered to be unworthy.
After my encounter with the Lord on March 29, 2016, Holy Spirit has taken me on an 8-year journey in seeking out the Revelation of the Lord’s beloved, hidden but to those born of the Spirit (John 3:3), in the writings of John the Beloved.
On day one of that Journey, I was introduced to the teachings of Damon Thompson, who had been on the same journey since 2009. His teachings have provoked me to leave the religious-minded studies of the WORD and dive into a deep-seated intimate journey with Holy Spirit, exploring the oceans of God’s love.
Holy Spirit has used Damon’s teachings to seek out the rooms that had been housing the spirit of religion in my inner man for most of my life. With comments such as:
“Is my identity found in production or my proximity to Jesus”?
I have to admit that this journey has not always been comfortable, it has challenged much of what I perceived regarding the nature of God, causing me to allow Holy Spirit to totally rewrite my Theological beliefs.
I have come to the place in my life where I have fully embraced a quote from Bill Johnson:
“Jesus is perfect Theology”
With that, I have found a place of rest in Jesus, where my identity is safely hidden in His hands, where the voices of condemnation and guilt have no access to my life. I do not consider myself an expert on the topic of being a beloved disciple. However, I dare say I am a daring and hungry student to continue searching out these life-transforming scriptural truths.
In this journey I believe it is safe to say that to testify as to being His “Beloved” is found not so much in words, but rather in character and actions which display the dominion power of the Lord flowing up from a well of His love dwelling deep within His sons and daughters.
The Beloved identity also speaks to the transforming nature of Christian discipleship. For in the Lord’s teachings, we find that He called His disciples to be faithful, courageous, and loving.
They are also called to be living witnesses to the truth of Jesus Christ and the power of His love actively releasing life into each other’s lives.
Holy Spirit is renewing the revelation of the “Beloved Disciple” as an example of what a “New Creation” son or daughter in Christ looks like, for such a person, is one whose life is a living demonstration of the Lord’s love in action toward others, as they love others as Christ has loved them.
One last but important note regarding the actions of one walking in the revelation of being the LORD’s beloved. let us not be led astray by our emotions but let us remember that Jesus loves us enough to bring correction into our lives.
Thus, to passively tolerate another person’s bad un-Christ behavior without bringing correction in love is actually NOT loving them as the Lord loves us.
