Spiritual Invasion

The Father has authorized the Courts of Heaven to take dominion & occupy the Beaches of Jacksonville…..

Last August as I was driving off the property of Cane Ridge meeting house, the location where the spark of the 2rd great awakening happened in 1801, Holy Spirit began to speak to me about authentic Kingdom discipleship.

He shared that true Christ like discipleship is one that is of a transactional relationship (pouring everything the Father has poured into us), which ignites a transformational flame, sparking an inward re-formation which births a Holy conviction to become the image bearer of Jesus the Father has always desired.

Then shortly after taking the position of volunteer director at Beaches Rescue & Recovery Mission in Jacksonville Beach, He said if you will lay everything else aside and invest in these disciples everything the Father has invested in you, this ministry will graduate “Mountain Moving Disciples” of Jesus Christ.

There has been some challenges, a number of the disciples were not willing to surrender their whole lives to Christ (After counting the cost). But of those who have stayed, I am witnessing a powerful and visible transformation in their lives.

There are many so called “discipleship-programs” out there, but there is only one true authentic ministry (not just here but around the Globe) where the leadership is willing at the stake of their personal reputation, give Holy Spirit complete control, putting away all religious teachings, doctrines and theologies and turn to the one true truth, His Holy Word (Jesus).

Along with this is the understanding that we always operate in grace, yet with the understanding that true Kingdom Grace carries with it governmental authority (Romans 6), and that Jesus taught in black & white, there are no gray areas with regard to His teachings.

In the Word one finds the pure unadulterated Gospel message that Jesus brought. You can not visible see it through the lens of tradition nor denominational rituals. To truly see it in its purity, one must submit to reading it through the eyes of the Spirit. Much like the invisible pens that were around when I was a child, you can’t see it unless you put it up to the LIGHT.

In November, the Father started speaking to me about allowing Him to gather a family together that will only seek His presence, not build something ourselves but surrender it Him and allow Him to draw those whose hearts are sold out to Him.

I prayed about it and reached out to my brother in the Faith Tracy Perez, and we both prayed and felt it was the Lord’s will. In January of this year, we opened the door to Saturday Night Beaches Family Gatherings (AKA Spirit & Fire Nights) at the Mission.

This past Thursday we were blessed to host Albert Luepnitz and Russell Stendal. I have personally known Albert for several years and have witnessed the Apostolic anointing he carries and how Heaven opens up over his meetings., darkness is exposed and denied it’s ability to remain hidden.

For the past two days hell has been attacking me trying to put a sickness on me yet the Blood denies it’s invasion. However this afternoon Holy Spirit began to speak to me and give me the following down-load: 

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6)

Heaven is invading the beaches, the Father is right now gathering & maturing disciples who are going to wreak havoc on the realms of darkness.

Many of the generational strongholds that have empowered darkness to operate in the beaches area are about to not just be torn down, they are going to be dis-assembled and burned by His Holy presence until they are rendered useless and unable to ever being re-establish.

The historical towers of religion are going to put up a fight, yet the Spirit of the anointed One, Jesus Christ shall prevail, in fact He defeated them at the cross and is deputizing this generation of disciple to enforce His Victory.

The counterfeit ministries are also going to try and ruin the plans of the Father and put a halt to what He is doing, they will throw everything in their power whether it be legal or financially to dose the flame that is being lit.

Yet they too will fail, the Father will with one breathe, remove the counterfeit veil of holiness and expose them for what they truly are, man created institutions welding the worldly systems power.

To God be the Glory!!!

A time to become a united Body

And from him, the whole body constructed and joined in every joint, according to a gift given in measure to every member for his growth of the body, that his building may be completed in love. (Eph 4:16)

Have you ever really looked at a hand – the four fingers and the thumb – all different in size and even shaped differently yet together they function in beautiful harmony.

Now if you cut one or more away, the hand doesn’t function to it’s full capacity – one of the fingers and or thumb must over react to make the adjustment for the missing member. Something else, when they are all there they number 5, Grace – even as when they are all there working according to their design, there is a beautiful gracefulness about them.

Now, I have seen people who are missing one or more, I’ve also seen people who have had all of them yet because of nerve damage or arthritis they suffer as they members seem to have a mind of there own.

Sadly today the Body at large is suffering because of each member desiring to do its own thing. Everyone feels that they each have a call to do their “own” ministry. Yet when you look at the teachings of Jesus, the Book of Acts, and the writings of Paul, they speak of anything but a “single ministry” mentality – they truthfully speak of team work, family and unity.

“My ministry” sound so selfishly self-serving and self centered….

This “my ministry” mentality has caused great damage to the body when the Biblical truth is that we each need each other and until we can put down our pride, erase wrong teaching and become united in unity with one mind, but to please the Father the body and the world will continue to suffer the loss of what Jesus created and Holy Spirit seeks to continue.

I use to have the “my ministry” mindset or sometimes I would refer to it being “My wife and I’s ministry”. Yet now I cringe when people put that label on me, for in all truth it is HIS ministry which is purposed to flow through myself and those whom the Father has purposed me to serve with.

Where ever you are, stop being a single ministry minded servant and seek out the very people the Lord has purposed you to serve with (Not over) that the Body may be whole, functioning according the the Lords design, each a very important member yet no more important greater than the members the Father has purposed you to be joined too. For then we shall see the Father being pleased and the world shall see His Glory shine forth.

This is HIS Kingdom and we all are Co-heirs, fellow citizens re-birthed as adopted children of the Father but to worship Him in Truth & Love and walk in His lavishing love poured out on us each equally..

 

Let us be the generation that puts an end to the spiritual arthritis in the Body and become united in Christ minded ministry……

Ready for Full-time Ministry?

You are ready for full-time ministry when:

You no longer need human applause

You don’t need anyone to give you an assignment

You don’t need a plan

You don’t need a building, a congregation or an endorsement

When you no longer are looking for some Great work to do

When the only thing that fully satisfies your heart is your prayer,
your worship, your ministry unto the Lord.

When you are satisfied with feeding Christ.

When you have giving yourself completely and your focus is on this one thing – My calling on this earth first of all is to be a minister unto Him.

In studying Ezek 44 – it is scary to see how many “ministers” in our day fall far outside the guidelines of the Zadok priesthood and are nothing more than either thieves or hirelings.

I can remember the day the Lord spoke to my heart as I was thinking about Full-time ministry. I had just spent the day servicing customers homes and during that time prayed with one lady who had cancer. At another home I shared the Lord with a Jehovah witness and shared how much Jesus means to me with a few other customers. As the thoughts of “Full-time” ministry were running thru my mind Holy Spirit played my day back to me and the Lord said – this is truly fulltime ministry in My Kingdom. Out of your heart you shared Me with others and expected nothing in return. You gave Glory to My name and served others freely with no mention or seeking of glory for your own.

Then I realized the “fantasy” of Full-time ministry that has been painted by the TV evangelist and many in the position of “paid clergy” today falls in the category of the priest spoken of at the start of Ezek 44. They are pleasing to man and to themselves but they are far from pleasing to the Lord.

Each one of us is giving the opportunity of “Full-time” ministry daily – the question is are you willing to accept the applause of Heaven over that of men or are you simply seeking to make your name known through out the land?

A radical Christian chooses the high road of excellence, as taught by Paul – that though one might have a right to receive support for ministering the gospel that they rather than being a hireling work with their own hands lest they become a burden upon the church!

As for me and my House – we simply want to serve the Lord – to minister unto Him – put a smile on His face and be a blessing to the Kingdom, bringing glory to His Name.
