To His Majesty

when will I get to the place where God really is my focus? I need a revelation of Jesus Christ…….I think we all do………only in His presence can my focus be wrenched off of me.

As the Lord says………blessed are the pure in heart……..i.e. the perfectionists……..

For they will see God……….and FINALLY get their focus off of themselves!

As Oswald Chambers says……..”Self Pity is of the Devil”

There’s too much hope in this world…..too much life…….and God is about to move in our church……for real this time……no spiritual propaganda……….

Give us the strength to see you…….and to just get up and serve and do what we are called to do…………To just DO it!

God says “I hate reluctance”………..deliver me out of reluctance and excuses into you……..light me up like a candle……..be proactive…..take some risks……..take charge and be willing to take some blame…………

Open our eyes Lord and lead us in to your presence……….And in your presence to find OUR sound………our unique quality…….and not rely on the sound of some professional because THEY do it so better……

It doesn’t matter if it looks bad……as long as it gets out there, that is what matters.

Easier said than done……but this is the ballgame and everything is on the line……….

Lead me in, Lord, Lead me in…….show me what this means and what I must do……..show me the way in………..and help me to get over myself………..

Hopeless??? No I wouldn’t say that…….just being shaped………you have to confront who you are and look at it in the light of my counsel………are you evil…….? No just human…….just in the process of being shaped……? Not good enough…….no….that isn’t how this works……..Nobody has a clue or is perfect when they start……that’s the whole point of the work…….It deals with your issues as you do it………and if you stay in the process……and see the point of the process and co-operate……..you’ll get better………

As Joseph said, “you meant this for evil, but GOD MEANT this for good…..”

Don’t beat yourself up for lost time……or lost issues……you haven’t lost anything……..your stupidity has been factored in……….and you are just in time!

Sometimes for you to be who you are……….you must come to Jesus and let Him reveal who you really are……because you don’t see yourself correctly. Sometimes I feel like I am undisciplined…….very much so…….but then the Lord speaks back, “disciplined for what?????” If you don’t know what kind of tool you are, how can you know if you measure up?

If I am a hammer, do I beat myself up for not being able to drill holes in the wall like a cordless drill, or saw things like a saw? The question is, who are you made to be in God’s sight, and what mission are you made for. Like a Carpenter with a bunch of tools, you need to know what you are building before you know how to use the tools. The problem with us as people of God is we want to use our own plans instead of going to the Lord.

God’s process seems to be frustrating…..because He will let us build something in our lives…….like a scaffolding, then he will knock part of it down and change our focus in a new path……….and we will go on until we get too far out and he will knock part of it down again and make adjustments……..is he having problems making himself clear or what???

Maybe I need to be still and believe Him more often………work less and have more effective co-operation with him in the work that I do. Cain got nowhere with all his work because He didn’t go get the revelation first.

What kind of Gift do you want God?

What kind of Gift do you want me to be?

Disciplined for what? Made for what? Are you really a failure or being shaped for something that nobody sees yet? It all boils down to whether or not you believe you are doing what God puts in front of you………..if you are then relax………see the purposes in front of you, do them and He will bring it all back together like a master weaver weaving a grand tapestry that in the end will reveal the face of Christ.

Above all……..stay humble and stay a novice in him

This is it…..the Lord is moving…….this is the Spiritual Invasion of Normandy…….and we are called to invade the enemy’s territory and reclaim those prisoners that the enemy has claimed that were once ours………to liberate a land held in darkness………..We’ll need good strategy, and Right understanding of this battle…………It will not all be fun and light, but a warfare against a determined foe……..

So it is important that we all know our roles……….Some, like the prophets are like the air war in Europe…….and for them to succeed they have to have the p-51 mustangs as well as the Bombers to accomplish their mission…….without either they cannot do their part……..which is to reclaim the stolen anointing and destroy the counterfeit anointing……….

Others are like The ships…….they first have cleared the u-boats from the waters preventing the resources from coming from heaven, in the last 20 years………..now those same ships are laying a groundwork for the invasion of enemy territory…….but their greatest fame is yet to come…….

Some are like the special forces who parachute far behind enemy lines, to take crucial crossroads and fortified areas so that the invasion isn’t halted by a well placed fortified area. They have already gone in.

Some are like engineers, finding and destroying key structures, building bridges, finding ways around tough obstacles……..sounds kinda like teachers to me.

Some are like battlefield medics…..they run around the battle healing people……and others are far behind the lines, healing those with serious injury.

Many of us….the young ones are the soldiers, but we all have roles…….some are for support, others for communication, still others are like snipers, and many are soldiers of the cross.

There are generals, colonels , lieutenants…….there is an order and unity to this battle and we’d better find it…………..because the battle of the bulge is coming……where the enemy hits back………..This is not going to be an easy fight, but we can win it.

We must find out who we are in the Presence of the Lord, then see the other roles of the other people, then ultimately the message of heaven which defines the process and the order of battle and where everyone belongs…………..we must obtain the message of the Lord, then work in unity around Him with the generations all working together in their roles to overcome………..if one generation bails out, it will not be done…..we must go together, we must be what we are called to be.
