the foundations That We Stand On

The Blessing Of The Lord Be Upon You In Jesus Name!  Take a few moments and just praise The King and Lord, Jesus with me!  Hallelujah To The King!  The Lord so graciously has been ministering to us for the last few Months all about what A TRUE CHAMPION OF THE KINGDOM IS.  He has ministered to us that a Champion of The Kingdom of God MUST KNOW and OPERATE and PRACTICE THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THE KING AND HIS KINGDOM. 

We don’t follow the World around us or even go on our own feelings and thoughts.  No, a Champion of The Kingdom of God operates within the Operational Procedures of The King and of His Kingdom and The Word given to us.  Which of course, is The Word Of God (logos) and The Spoken, Right Now Word Of God, A Manifested Communication From The King which is A Communication Of God called, (rhema).

Strong’s Number #4487 - rhéma
 A thing spoken; that which is or has been uttered by The Living Voice, The Word.

 Strong’s Number #3056 - logos
 A divine declaration recorded, expressing the thoughts of The  Father through The Spirit and being collected.

Last Month The Lord ministered to us all of how a Champion of The Kingdom must operate in the Power of Humility and what TRUE HUMILITY IS!  TRUE HUMILITY is NOT weak, frail, timid, mousey or shy.  TRUE HUMILITY lowers themselves under The Lord’s Direction NO MATTER WHAT!  That person in TRUE HUMILITY does not put their desires before The King’s nor do they choose their own comfort or will over His Word.  A person of TRUE HUMILITY puts The King and His Word first ABOVE ALL.  A TRUE CHAMPION MUST LIVE IN HUMILITY, NO MATTER THE COST TO THEMSELVES.  Choosing to do other than what The King has said to do would be the opposite of True Humility which is PRIDE. (Please see April’s Teaching Letter for more depth of TRUE  HUMILITY of a Champion of King Jesus and His Kingdom on JCM’S Webpage or contact JCM’S Office for a Copy of April’s Teaching Letter.)

A Dream On 22

On 22 February 2022 I had two experiences with The Lord that has changed my life.  I had no idea how these things would impact my life when they occurred.  I’d like to share them with you.  First you must know that this date of 22 February is my mother’s birthday, who is in Heaven.  And it is also George Washington’s Birthday, The Father of Our Country, who also is in Heaven.  George Washington owned and surveyed the property that borders the Ministry’s Property here in Hico, WV and to which we live on also.

On this night of “22” I did not see in this first occurrence anything, yet just HEARD words while I was sleeping.  I heard the words, “Go to Williamsburg! . . .”  three times.  I immediately woke up. I got up and went to the bathroom and was thinking to myself, “what a strange dream!”

I went back to bed, went back to sleep and then right before waking, I had a dream that I was in a beautiful house and it was as if it was early morning,  right before the sun came up.  It was darker in the house but with some light.  I was in the Office that was in this house and in an Office chair and I heard a noise.  In the dream I thought, “someone is in the house!”

I got up out of the Office chair and went into the hallway where a woman was coming down this hallway toward me.  She comes to me face to face and puts her hands on my shoulders.  I then put my hands on her shoulders.  She then says to me, “Go To Williamsburg!” And I woke up.  Both of these occurrences happened to me on 22 February 2022.  

I was definitely being told by The Lord TO GO TO  WILLIAMSBURG!  Dewayne and I had never been there yet knew The Lord had something for us there and we were being sent there to seek Him and find what He wanted us to see from Him.  So we went and oh boy did we find The Lord!  And we found SO MUCH in addition!  We found ourselves being marinated in History!  We were in the Time of the first settlers at Jamestown, we stayed in Colonial Williamsburg and was in that Time and then also in the Time of Yorktown Battle that secured the winning of the Revolutionary War.  History and Time was now surrounding us everywhere we looked and went. The History and the Crucial Times of America was all that we could see . . . EVERYWHERE.

“It is the glory of God to conceal a matter, But the glory of kings is to search out a matter.” Proverbs 25:2 NKJV

We sought The Lord the whole time we were there.  We looked for what He had sent us there to see, hear and know.  There was SO MUCH we learned!  Things we had no idea about from our History!  I was not taught about American History in school.  I know many of you reading this may have had great instruction on American History, and that is WONDERFUL!  What I know now is what I have sought out and found myself.  This mission that The Lord sent us on opened our eyes greatly.  More than we could have ever expected.

When one looks at the Declaration of Independence you will see basically two colors on the page.  One is the color black that the ink of the words were penned in of these brave men.  The words written in the black ink are what these men and the people that they represented BELIEVED IN and was willing to die for.  The other color one we'll notice is, in this case, a light brown color of the paper to which the black ink is used upon.  That light brown color of the paper represents EVERYTHING THAT IS NOT WRITTEN IN THE BLACK INK.

The Declaration Of Independence

MANY PEOPLE before these men, surrounding and backing them, paid many prices with and within their lives to get to this point in American History.  The ones who came over to the shores of this land without knowing what to expect.  Coming here to try and survive on this land and build a New Land all with just what they brought over with them on boats across the Atlantic Ocean in 1607 was an enormous mission.  Many did not survive.  Yet, a group kept persevering and enduring in what they BELIEVED and others would come from them.  Time happened within the hardships and sacrifices.  Men and women continually built on what others did before them and continued believing in the greatest of this New Land called America.

What is NOT WRITTEN on the Declaration of Independence on the light brown paper IS THE REAL LIVES OF THE PEOPLE THAT WILLINGLY LAID DOWN THEIR ALL TO PEN THOSE WORDS!  WORDS THAT WERE AGAINST A NATION, A GOVERNMENT, THE KING AND A KINGDOM of England far larger, richer and more militarily equipped than they were by far!  It was an act of treason for Freedom!

The light brown paper represents the family discussions that would have  already taken place of what would  happen if these men in their households signed that light brown paper to declare war against the largest Military and Kingdom in the World!  The discussions and prayers of so many that were trying to make the decision of what to do and whether or not to fight for THIS IDEA OF FREEDOM or not.  

The light brown paper represents the thoughts and conversations of everyone with their families, neighbors, friends and Church Congregations in the 13 Colonies (States) of whether laying down their lives as they knew it was worth this belief.  The risk of dying, their men dying, their children dying, giving up their homes or laying down all that they had in their possession FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED IN;  conversations of “would it all be worth it” to fight for a “cause” that they believed in and did not know that they would have victory in.  To lay down their lives and futures with their families and to leave their families to know that they may never see them again.  To possibly have nothing left to live on.  ALL BECAUSE they BELIEVED that mankind and themselves should be free.

“If you cling to your life, you will lose it; but if you give up your life for me, you will find it.” Matthew 10:39

The RESOLVE, the DETERMINATION, the COURAGE, the SELFLESSNESS, the FAITH and the TRUST they and all the people and families of the 13 Colonies with them had!  ALL FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED!  The light brown paper behind the ink represents the MANY LIVES, STORIES, TEARS and PRAYERS of SO MANY PEOPLE!

 FOUNDATIONS

Susan Constant, Godspeed and Discovery-Brought the first permanent English Colonists to Virginia

These three TIMES of History shows us the resolute of people for freedom.  The ones who came over on the boats to America in the beginning had to come against winter, starvation, attacks, disease, death, the unknown and so much more.  This was their WAR.  Was it all worth it for what they BELIEVED?

Not many years later you will find in History from those first Settlers, the Colonists who were gathering, debating, discussing and representing the people of what had come to be formed, the 13 Colonies of The New Land of America.  They knew that this STAND against England could cost them everything!  Literally everything!  ALL they had and the lives of everyone they knew and loved of the 13 Colonies of America, everything as they knew it, could be lost forever. 

The Colonist’s signing of the Declaration of Independence from England was a declaration and an act of War against the Government and King to which they were subject to, under and a part of.  The signers of the Declaration all KNEW that going forward with the signing would be seen by England as an act of treason against the Nation and Government.

The unknown and losing their lives, their possessions and each other, once again, this was their WAR.  Was it all worth it for them in this time of History in their Generation?  Should they give their all for what they BELIEVED?  These same Colonists then find themselves and all of the 13 Colonies (States) IN A WAR with who is now their enemy.  All peoples in this Country are now in this War; 13 Colonies, 13 States against an entire Nation and Government!  MANY BATTLES and very hard times and many lives lost are due to this War.  ALL FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED IN!  The War lasted approximately 7 years.  

The warriors then find themselves at what would be known as the final Battle at Yorktown where General George Washington, with allied American and French forces, overtook General Charles Lord Cornwallis’ British Army.  America won their independence and WHAT THEY BELIEVED IN WAS NOW REALITY!  FREEDOM FOR ALL WAS FOUGHT FOR AND WON!

ALL BECAUSE PEOPLE FOUGHT FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED!  

 AND BELIEVED IN WHAT THEY FOUGHT FOR!

 And DID NOT QUIT or GIVE UP On What THEY BELIEVED!

We, Church, are in a WAR.  There is a REAL WAR going on!  Many people who are Born Again are not aware that there is a War happening.  Others just DON’T BELIEVE there is a War going on.  They don’t see themselves as Warriors and are settled on just having a casual commitment with The Lord and His Word and want to just know about what Jesus did when He walked this Earth and Ministry.

The Kingdom of Darkness is at War with The Kingdom Of God.  And, when one is Born Again they are Born Into The Kingdom and the War that is going on!  Some that are Born Again know there is a War against the Kingdom of God going on BUT CHOOSE NOT TO FIGHT and DON’T WANT TO FIGHT.  They are ignoring what they are called to do as Born Again Believers in the WAR OF ALL TIME!

If One Does Not Know There Is An Enemy and That We Are Called To Fight Our Enemy, Then One Will Not Know What To Do!  KNOW THAT YOU MUST FIGHT YOUR ENEMY BACK!  FIGHT BACK CHURCH! 

As we have seen in these three Times of History we have discussed, WHEN THE PEOPLE BELIEVE IN SOMETHING AND ARE WILLING TO SURRENDER THEIR ALL FOR IT . . . THERE IS A BATTLE!  The Battle may be with the elements of this World, with the unknown, with disease and sickness, lack, with a Government coming against, losing one’s possessions or one’s own life or the Battle of one’s mind.  All of these come from an enemy and THE BATTLE IS REAL!

Yet, one thing that we can learn from these 3 times in History is that WHAT YOU BELIEVE CAN GET YOU THROUGH THE BATTLE AND GET ONE TO A VICTORY!  EVERYONE has a part to play in a WAR.  Everyone and THEIR Passion and Place in a WAR is very important! And it is when everyone that IS IN THE WAR fights and does their part that the WAR can be won. 

When there are those who are in a WAR and they CHOOSE NOT TO FIGHT or GIVE THEIR ALL or HOLD THEMSELVES BACK from the Warfare, it makes THE FIGHT HARDER FOR THOSE WHO ARE ALL IN, IN THE WARFARE!  For the weight of the WAR is not being carried BY ALL IN THE WAR!  But when ALL FIGHT from their “posts” or “positions” the Warfare becomes lighter . . . FOR EVERYONE!

This is so true in WAR!  If there are SOLDIERS . . . In name only and wear the uniform and not fight in the WAR that the uniform they wear stands for . . . they are making the WEIGHT of WAR heavier for others!  And this is true in The Universal Church!  God NEEDS ALL of His Warriors in His WAR To FIGHT!  No Ground Can Be Taken For The Kingdom and Victories Cannot Occur by JUST ATTENDING or having your uniform on in The WAR!  Victories Happen ONLY in the FIGHTING of THE WAR!  Soldiers are needed TO FIGHT in WAR! FIGHT CHURCH, FIGHT THE ENEMY!

“According to the grace (the special endowment for my task) of God bestowed on me, like a skillful architect and master builder I laid [the] foundation, and now another [man] is building upon it. But let each [man] be careful how he builds upon it,”  

1 Corinthians 3:10 (AMPC)

Foundation—Strong’s Number #3245—(yasad)

The VICTORY FROM THOSE WHO HAVE WENT AND FOUGHT BEFORE US IS WHOSE FOUNDATIONS WE STAND UPON TODAY!

We have tremendous FOUNDATIONS that we stand on today in The Body of Christ!  The FOUNDATIONS of Abraham and Sarah who decided to HAVE FAITH IN GOD and just believe what God said and not what their circumstances . . . that were impossible were!

“[For Abraham, human reason for] hope being gone, hoped in faith that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been promised, So [numberless] shall your descendants be. 19  He did not weaken in faith when he considered the [utter]             impotence of his own body, which was as good as dead because he was about a hundred years old, or [when he considered] the barrenness of Sarah’s [deadened] womb.” Romans 4:18-19 (AMPC)

Both Abraham and Sarah gave us strong FOUNDATIONS to stand on for they both had to BELIEVE GOD FOR THINGS THAT COULD NOT BE and now WE BUILD ON what THEIR FAITH BUILT!  They are the FOUNDATIONS of our Faith.  Other FOUNDATIONS are the Prophets and Leaders of the Old Covenant or Testament.  Just a few are Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.  ALL four of these Warriors for God stood against the enemy of their days and that was the Government that was against their God, which is our God! They DID NOT BACK DOWN and just GO ALONG with everyone else in their surroundings!  They STOOD FOR GOD and HIS TRUTH! They all four FOUGHT THEIR WAR and DID NOT COMPROMISE!  Victory and  Promotion followed them all!  MANY other people who are the FOUNDATIONS that we STAND ON are Enoch, Noah, Joshua, Caleb, David, Deborah, Ezekiel,  Nehemiah, Esther, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Micah, Joel, Mary,  Joseph, Anna, Simeon, Peter, John, James, Matthew, Paul, Aquila, Priscilla and our Chief Cornerstone of the  FOUNDATION, Jesus From Nazareth!

“For thus it stands in Scripture: Behold, I am laying in Zion a chosen (honored), precious chief Cornerstone, and he who believes in Him [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Him] shall never be disappointed or put to shame.”  1 Peter 2:6 (AMPC)

“Proclaim this among the nations:   Prepare for war! Rouse the warriors! Let all the fighting men draw near and attack.” 

Joel 3:9 (NIV)

“They will be like warriors trampling the mud of the streets in battle. They will fight, because Adonai is with them; they will rout even those on horseback.” Zechariah 10:5 (CJB)

“Be strong and courageous, do not be afraid or tremble in dread before them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not fail you or  abandon you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 (AMP)

                                                              FLINT

What Is Flint?  To begin with, the word Flint in Hebrew has a Strong’s Number #2496 (challamish) - which means HARD, HARDNESS, FIRMNESS, Very Hard Rock or Stone,  Hardens Through Time and Pressure.  Adamant, Impenetrable, Indestructible, Tough, Unbreakable are  just some of the words that describe the results when something has arrived in the condition of Flint.

There is another Strong’s Number that has the word Flint in it and it is #6862 (tsar) which means narrow, tight, adversary, affliction, anguish, close, distress, enemy and foe.

“I offered my back to those who beat me and my cheeks to those who pulled out my beard.  I did not hide my face from mockery and spitting. 7 Because the Sovereign Lord helps me, I will not be disgraced. Therefore, I have set my face like a stone, determined to do his will. And I know that I will not be put to shame.”  Isaiah 50:6-7 (NLT)

This is a prophecy of what would happen to Jesus in the hardest time He would face in His Life.  Literally He was beaten, the hair of his face was pulled out, terrible things were yelled at Him as they spit in His face and even greater things done to Him like the flogging and the public crucifixion on a cross.  YET, we see here in Isaiah 50 that He set His Face as hard as a ROCK, DETERMINED TO DO GOD’S WILL for Him!  Determined to “fight” His WAR!  

And still yet, we see that setting your face to DO GOD’S WILL also means . . . The Chief CORNERSTONE of THE FOUNDATION that we are built upon of Jesus shows us of what He, The Cornerstone, was formed into. 

 “For the Lord God helps Me, Therefore, I have not been ashamed or humiliated. Therefore, I have made My face like flint, And I know that I shall not be put to shame.” Isaiah 50:7 (AMP)

When everything was really HARD and TOUGH, that is when HE BECAME even more adamant about what God called Him to do and His WAR was to set His face like FLINT and be The Warrior Who would be “like Flint!”  Impenetrable, Indestructible, Tough, Unbreakable is King Jesus!  The adversary, the enemy and foe (the devil) brought affliction, anguish and distress to Jesus BUT King Jesus had already SET HIS FACE WITH DO WHAT HE WAS CALLED TO DO in His Life!  And God is asking that ALL His Warriors be determined and fight in their WAR while they are on this Earth, just like Jesus!  And just like ALL that have went before us in their WARS! 

Building On Them

When we were in Yorktown (which is just down the road from Williamsburg and Jamestown) we drove to a monument that stood in honor of the WAR and BATTLE that was fought there that was led by General George Washington. (Remember the dreams that I had that were on 22 February 2022 which is George Washington’s Birthday.)  This Battle at Yorktown was the Battle in the Revolutionary War that won the War.  As Dewayne and I walked up to the monument I heard in my spirit these words.

 "They have arrived.  They are here . . . At another place of surrender.'

These words almost took my breath away.  I realized that The Holy Spirit let me hear a very small part of a conversation that was taking place.  I don’t know yet (I have asked) if it was between Holy Spirit and Jesus or Father or my angel reporting to One of Them.  I just know for now that I KNEW that it was important that we had arrived at this place and at this time.  This place on this Holy ground was where many men would SURRENDER IT ALL in THEIR WAR!  And two more of God’s warriors were now walking on this site in History yet again.  This brings me to tears as I write this.  

As we walked around the enormous Monument we saw Dewayne’s birthday Month and day engraved at the Monument.  We KNEW that was another “marker” of why God sent us here.  He had sent us to these marvelous places of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown to show us the many who have went before and WHO SURRENDERED THEIR ALL!  HE Sent Us There To SURRENDER Our Will . . . Again.

George Washington was here.  Marquis Lafayette, Major General “his son” that he cherished throughout this War as so did Lafayette as he referred to Washington as his “father” was here.  Many of the Warriors and Foundation Stones were all in this place of Yorktown and all had walked the streets of Williamsburg.  All of these people SURRENDERED.  Their families SURRENDERED.  The ones who came over to these shores in the very beginning, SURRENDERED.  WHY DO ALL THAT THEY DID?  Because THEY BELIEVED IN FREEDOM! They BELIEVED WITH ALL THEIR HEARTS that the WARS THEY ALL FOUGHT . . . WERE WORTH WHAT THEY BELIEVED IN!  They didn’t just talk about what they believed . . . THEY FOUGHT FOR WHAT THEY BELIEVED!  So, I must ask you as I have asked myself. 

What Do You Believe In?  

Would You Fight and Take Your Stand Over What You Believe? 

Would You FIGHT For What God Fights For and Says?

The Journey Continues

We continued on this mission that The Lord sent us on by going on a Battle Trail at Yorktown.  And MUCH TO OUR SURPRISE we found the site of George Washington’s Headquarters!  WOW, just WOW!  And also along that trail of the Battle Grounds we found A SIGN that confirmed AGAIN, what was spoken to us at that Monument at Yorktown.  On the way to George Washington’s Headquarters in HIS WAR for what HE BELIEVED IN, we find the SIGN OF SURRENDER.  Dewayne and I had been sent . . . TO SURRENDER just like the many that had gone before us and established this great Land of Freedom.

So on our last journey we went back to the Victory Monument at Yorktown and went under a tree at the site and repented for being selfish in our lives and for other things that The Lord was dealing with us about.  We prayed together.  We surrendered our all to The Lord.  We told Him that we would do whatever He wanted us to do in His Kingdom and in His Nation of America.  We were His to command.  We told Him we would give everything we had and we did.  With many tears of surrender we then took Communion under that tree at the Victory Monument in “the place of surrender” that The Lord said it was.  Our lives changed that day.  We settled in our hearts to surrender at any cost for The Lord and what We Believed, just like those who had done this before us.

Are you ready TO SURRENDER?  Are you ready to totally give your all to Him Who Loves You More that you can imagine?  Are you ready to surrender YOUR WILL For His?  Are you ready to let go of yourself and FIGHT FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE IN IN THE KINGDOM OF GOD?  Are you ready to not just talk about what you BELIEVE and to Fight for what you BELIEVE?  There IS a WAR going on and YOU ARE CALLED to FIGHT in it!  Surrender with you all right now.  Take time to surrender your all to King Jesus and pray this prayer out loud and mean it with all your heart.

“Lord Jesus, I know that I am not where I need to be with You.  I stop right now and I make the decision to give You my life entirely.  I surrender to You Lord!  I leave my past, my sins and my way of doing things the way I want to and I ask You to forgive me of them all.” 

 “I believe that You were raised from the dead for me and took my place.  Please come into my life and change it and do something with my life.  I am ready to follow Your Plan, Destiny and PATH that you have for me.  I am ready to fight the WAR with You King Jesus!  I make You, Jesus, The Lord of my life.  Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit and Power!  I AM YOURS NOW!  And Jesus, I AM YOURS TO COMMAND, in Jesus Name!”

If you prayed and decided to surrender your all and life to The Lord, please let us know here at the Ministry.  We want to rejoice with you and send you some resources to help you get a good start with your walk and journey with the Lord!  Welcome to the Family!

It is an honor to be in the family with you and in The Battle and War of The Kingdom of God with you!  Continue to daily lay down your will for His.  Remember you are not losing anything . . . YOU ARE GAINING EVERYTHING!  Let’s Win This WAR Family!  For The Kingdom of God and For Our America!  YOU ARE A GOD CHAMPION!  We Love You!

                                                                               Keep Getting Ready,  Jesus Is Coming!

The Humility of CHAMPIONS!

What a Word this is for us in The Body Of Christ!  When you read the title to this Teaching, for most a “mindset” of what this Word is about probably was formed.  What if I told you that the very thing that YOU THINK HUMILITY IS . . . IS NOT.  Find out what TRUE HUMILITY IS.  CHAMPIONS OF GOD MUST HAVE THIS SPIRITUAL FORCE OPERATING IN THEIR LIVES!  And, it has NOTHING to do with being shy or mousey.

  “What Is A   CHAMPION?”

 Last Month The Lord taught us that when we see people in the Super Bowl you and I are witnessing two teams of individuals that have made  the Fundamentals of their game of the upmost importance and they have MASTERED THEM.  And being experts at Those FUNDAMENTALS have graced them to be in the ultimate ring of other Champions.

NUMBERS 12:3 NLT  

“Now Moses was very humble—more humble than any other person on earth.”

NLV - “Now Moses was a man with no pride, more so than any man on the earth.” 

There is a Fundamental of a Champion of The Kingdom of God he or she must have that The Lord wants me to bring forth to us all in The Body of Christ.  And that is Humility.  I know that when I typed and you read the word, Humility you may be thinking, “What does humility have to do with being a CHAMPION?  Champions are strong and are Warriors!  They don’t go around with their heads down looking all shy and down trodden in humility.  Champions are strong and win and overcome!  Humility means to be shy, cowarding and backing down, sheepish and timid.”  Well, Beloved I know that the World can define Humility with those words but that is not what “God Humility” is about.  And that is why The Lord wants us to look at Humility and the way that He looks at it and defines it.  Some words that we may know that do not mean to us the word Humility would be aggressive, bold, forward, smug, boastful, vain, overbearing and brazen.  And WITHOUT THE LORD, these words could very well be a description of someone not humble.  So, let’s look at Numbers 12:3 again.

NUMBERS 12:3 NLT

“Now Moses was very humble—more humble than any other person on earth.”

NLV - “Now Moses was a man with no pride, more so than any man on the earth.” 

Isn’t that just a wonderful description of Brother Moses in The Bible?  Just wonderful!  MOSES WAS THE MOST HUMBLE PERSON on the earth!  And, Moses HAD NO PRIDE!  Think about that!  How impressive this is and that it is written in The Bible to be recorded forever!  Yet, Here Is Some VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION!  MOSES, HIMSELF WROTE NUMBERS 12:3!  MOSES WROTE THIS ABOUT HIMSELF!  That’s right!  Moses wrote this about himself!  How  prideful, right?  No, it is not prideful.  The Holy Spirit led him to write those words and MOSES OBEYED!

But what about what people would think about him saying something so bold and brazen about himself!  Wouldn’t he be seen as a prideful person saying and writing such things about himself?  And writing about himself that he was the most humble!  Yet, this is what God wants us ALL TO KNOW . . . If Moses would have refused to have written that about himself . . . THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PRIDE.  NOT OBEYING WHAT GOD TELLS YOU TO DO OR SAYING WHAT GOD TELLS YOU TO SAY . . . IS PRIDE.  HUMILITY IS OBEYING THE WORD OF GOD and THE WORD FROM GOD.  Pride is NOT saying and doing what you are told to do.  

Humility is coming under the Direction of The Lord, no matter what.  

Humility is not acting in your own ways and thinking that you and I are right about things, when God has    already given His Word and/or Direction on it.  

Humility is obeying Him no matter what we feel or think.

Humility is obeying The Lord when it is uncomfortable and not easy. 

Humility is doing what The Lord has said or shown you when no one else is doing it with you. 

Humility is obeying The Lord when you don’t have all the answers and can’t figure how it’s all going to turn out.

Humility is TRUSTING GOD . . . NO MATTER WHAT, NO MATTER WHEN . . . NO MATTER WHO . . . 

NO MATTER WHAT!

Let’s look at 1 Peter 5:5-7.  We are told of The Lord to clothe ourselves in humility.  Then, we are told that God gives grace (power, favor, strength, might, courage, mercy, glory) to the humble!  WOW!  And God resists (opposes, bucks) the proud. Again, WOW!

“Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” 1 PETER 5:5-7 NKJV

“Clothe YOURSELF with humility.”  I put on my own clothes everyday, don’t you?  It is MY RESPONSIBILITY to PUT ON MY CLOTHES.  We are directed by The Lord here to CLOTHE YOURSELF with humility.  Only I can PUT ON humility.  If I choose not to clothe MYSELF with this garment of humility, it is my own choice.  That’s because HUMILITY IS A CHOICE.  When we put it on in our lives there is GRACE THAT ACCOMPANIES IT.  And, when we choose to NOT CLOTHE OURSELVES with humility, it leaves us with the nakedness of pride.  God resists the proud. 

So, how do I humble myself?  

The answer to this follows in verse 6.  “Therefore, HUMBLE YOURSELF Under The Mighty Hand Of God.”  When God, The Word Himself, has given you and I A Word, A Direction, it is up to US to humble ourselves . . . AND DO what we have been told.  HE IS, is our Lord!  When we do NOT HUMBLE OURSELVES under His Might, His Lordship, then we are operating in our own understanding, our own way and reasoning.  Which is our own pride.

We can see this even further in 1 Peter 5 in verse 7, “casting all your care upon Him, for he cares for you.”   Why is God telling us, RIGHT AFTER He is telling us about HUMBLING OURSELVES, He then says, CAST YOUR CARE?  BECAUSE, WE ARE TRYING TO DO and OPERATE and LIVE IN OUR OWN WAYS!  And, that results in us “carrying cares!”  Our Own Cares!  Because we are NOT HUMBLING OURSELVES under God and doing what HE Says.  And, WE RECEIVE ALL THE WEIGHT and TROUBLE of what we are unwilling to Humble Ourselves Under God ABOUT.  

We are CALLED to Humble Ourselves Under HIM!  AND THERE IS “GRACE” FOR US WHEN WE DO! (Verse 5)  HE gives GRACE FOR THE HUMBLE.  Jesus carries all the weight and pressure and He is ABLE to work things out for our good because we are Humbling Ourselves Under Him, Under The Word!  There is not Grace for the ones in pride.  Not humbling ourselves Under God, His Word, His Direction is against Him, Who Is The Word.  HE Is The Way!  The WAY to do what?  EVERYTHING!  Humbling ourselves to do EVERYTHING WITH HIM, BY HIM, THROUGH HIM, HUMBLING OURSELVES UNDER HIM!  HE IS THE WORD!  HE IS THE WAY!

HE CAN’T GO AGAINST HIMSELF!

Unless we come under His Direction and Word and Order to us, He Is The Word and HE Cannot Come Against HIMSELF!  So, WE Have To HUMBLE OURSELVES Under Him!  If we choose not to humble ourselves, the Bible calls that Pride.  We Cannot Cast The Care Unless We First HUMBLE OURSELVES!  HUMILITY UNDER HIS WORD To Us and His Direction Comes FIRST. (1 Peter 5:6-7)  

Humility is coming into His obedience and not trying to figure it out, or reason it out, or think it out, what HE says to you.  Humility is just doing whatever HE tells you to do and not leaning on your own understanding.  “Submit to Him” or Humble yourself under HIM.  When we SUBMIT to Him, His Word, His Direction, we are Humbling ourselves under Him.  Submit = Humbling.

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” 

Humbling Ourselves To God, His Word, His Direction, His Way, Not Our OWN . . . 

Because That Is What CHAMPIONS DO!

Strong’s Number #4487 - rhéma
 A thing spoken; that which is or has been uttered by the living voice, the word.

Strong’s Number #3056 - logos
 A divine declaration recorded, expressing the thoughts of the Father through the Spirit and being collected.

The Word of God, it is spoken and it is written.  A Rhema Word is one that is spoken by God or through a person of God.  The Logos Word is The Word that is recorded for us in The Bible.  So much of The Rhema Word of God has been recorded and collected and has become a Logos Word.  God speaks through the Logos and Rhema.  Hallelujah!

We can have “plans” and thinking that what we feel are right and have many “reasons” why we think we are right.  Yet, it’s The Lord’s Voice that we need to listen to, heed to and humble ourselves to, not other’s voices and not even our own, if it’s against what The King has said and confirmed to us.  Those Logos Words from The Lord and those Rhema Words from The Lord are precious and they are Right. 

“Hear counsel, receive instruction, and accept correction, that you may be wise in the time to come.  21 Many plans are in a man’s mind, but it is the Lord’s purpose for him that will stand.” 

Proverbs 19:20-21 (AMPC)

 Now, when we receive Direction from The Lord it’s then and from then on A DECISION.  It’s a decision on whether you and I are going to HUMBLE OURSELVES and do what He says or just keep on doing what we think is right.  What we have planned.  That’s what Proverbs 19:20-21 is addressing with us. 

“Hear counsel, receive instruction, and accept correction, that you may be wise in the time to come.  21 Many plans are in a man’s mind, but it is the Lord’s purpose for him that will stand.” 

 Proverbs 19:20-21 (AMPC)

If my plans are what I lean on, if my plans, my thoughts on my mind is what I do and not do what The Lord has Said and has “purposed” for me, then I am lacking humility.  I have done this.  Can you relate?  I thought that the way I thought was right, even though I had a Lead, a Direction or a Word from The Holy Spirit.  And I went ahead and did things my own way.  I LEANED ON MY OWN UNDERSTANDING . . . And it was not RIGHT and it was NOT IN HUMILITY.

So How Do I Fix It?  

You and I HUMBLE OURSELVES and REPENT.  Ask The Lord to forgive us and if possible,  GO BACK and DO IT RIGHT!  If possible, do a “re-do” with God, and if  necessary, get it right with people.  If it is an action that you can “re-do,” do that!  Make it right with God and whatever you can do to get it right . . . Do It!  Remember, there is GRACE for the Humble.  Repenting and making things Right IS HUMBLING YOURSELF!  And, GRACE Comes With Humility!

Pray With Me. — “Lord, I ask for myself and the one reading this to become great Warriors of Yours by humbling ourselves under Your Word, Your Direction in Jesus Name!  No more doing it on our own and in pride.  No more in Jesus Name!  We are quick to hear and quick to obey!  We decide today to Humble Ourselves Under You, Lord, under Your Word!  We clothe ourselves in humility and we keep that garment on.  We do not lean on our own understanding.  We Trust You Lord!  We surrender our will to Yours Lord, in Jesus Name!”

A BIG Example

Let’s now look at an example in The Word of a People who did not humble themselves under what God had told them.  Let’s learn from this.  Father God had told the Hebrew Children that HE was giving THEM a great land.  That meant God was going to HANDLE it all for them.  God told them how WONDERFUL it was.  God had greatly proven Himself to the Hebrew Children in rescuing them from the Egyptians, opening AN OCEAN for them, making it that the OCEAN FLOOR WAS DRY FOR THEM, making the waters come back and drown their enemies and captors, making the Egyptians GIVE THEM ALL THEIR RICHES and making all the Hebrews HEALTHY AND STRONG when they left Egypt under God’s Command to do so.

They had already experienced what happens when someone just does what God says to do and humbles themselves under Him and His Direction and Word.  The Hebrew Children then get the next Word and Promise from Father God that, 

Exodus 3:8  (NLT)

 ”So I have come down to rescue them from the power of the Egyptians and lead them out of Egypt into their own fertile and spacious land. It is a land flowing with milk and honey—the land where the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites now live.”

“Send men to spy out the land of Canaan, which I am giving to the children of Israel; from each tribe of their fathers you shall send a man, every one a leader among them.” Numbers 13:2 (NKJV)

God had told the Hebrew Children that He had given a wonderful Land that would be very prosperous for them.  He also told them that others possessed it.  Yet, HE WAS GIVING IT TO THEM NOW.  All the Hebrews had to do was OBEY what God told them to do in TAKING THE LAND.  The Word of The Lord had come to them several times.  They KNEW what they were to do once The Lord rescued them from their slavery in Egypt.  God told them over and over.  They received many WORDS FROM THE LORD on their   direction and destiny.  There was no question on what God said to them.  Yet, when it was time for them to TAKE WHAT GOD SAID WAS THEIRS, what happened?  The Leaders of ten of the Tribes spoke and reported the following.

^“This was their report to Moses: “We entered the land you sent us to explore, and it is indeed a bountiful country—a land flowing with milk and honey. Here is the kind of fruit it produces. 28 But the people living there are powerful, and their towns are large and fortified. We even saw giants there, the descendants of Anak!”     Num. 13:27-28 (NLV)  

The 10 Leaders reported what they saw and IT WAS WHAT GOD SAID IT WOULD BE!  It was bountiful and fruitful and large and wonderful!  Yet these 10 Leaders decided to only look at and believe what was NOT what God said.  They decided to SIDE WITH what they thought and reasoned out, instead of THE WORD GOD HAD TOLD THEM.  THEY REFUSED TO HUMBLE THEMSELVES UNDER WHAT GOD HAD TOLD THEM!  They decided to go by what THEY THOUGHT instead of what God told them.  And, it cost them everything!  Two of the Leaders, who saw  exactly everything that the other 10 Leaders saw decided TO BELIEVE WHAT GOD SAID!

Numbers 14:7-9 (NLT) 

 “They said to all the people of  Israel, “The land we traveled through and explored is a wonderful land! 8 And if the Lord is pleased with us, he will bring us safely into that land and give it to us. It is a rich land flowing with milk and honey. 9 Do not rebel against the Lord, and don’t be afraid of the people of the land. They are only helpless prey to us! They have no protection, but the Lord is with us! Don’t be afraid of them!”

Due to Joshua and Caleb, the two Leaders who CHOSE TO DO THE WORD OF THE LORD, only they of that generation was allowed to enter the Promise Land.  Joshua and Caleb HUMBLED THEMSELVES and what they saw and thought UNDER what God Said!  
Caleb and Joshua could have sided with the other 10 Leaders and just did what their emotions were screaming at them when they saw the giants and what seemed to be problems ahead.  Or, looked like an impossible situation.  But, they made a decision TO         FOLLOW GOD and HIS WORD.  And it was in the moments of decision that we all face in life OF WHAT WORD WILL WE FOLLOW, that Joshua and Caleb decided to GO WITH THE WORD!

What Decision Are YOU Facing?  

Which Way Are You Going?  

Will You Humble Yourself and Do, Say and Follow What God Said . . . Or Lean To Your Own Understanding? 

REALLY SEE THESE TWO WORDS TOGETHER

Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” 1 PETER 5:5-7 NKJV

Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

  “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;  6 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” 

THE TWO “UNDER’S”

We see here in these two Scriptures that YOU and I are going to put ourselves UNDER “something.”  The “Whom” we put ourselves UNDER is either ourselves or The Lord, IT IS OUR CHOICE.  Will we put ourselves UNDER Our Own Understanding and do what WE THINK or FEEL and LEAN ON?  Or, will we put ourselves UNDER THE WORD, THE LORD?  Going UNDER our own understanding is the opposite of humility, which is pride.  Going UNDER, humbling ourselves UNDER God, The Word IS Humility.  Let’s CHOOSE to put ourselves UNDER God and what He has Said to us!  Choose to HUMBLE OURSELVES!

Humility at it’s Finest

Samuel Chapter 17 puts us where we left off last Month in talking about David and how he kept THE WORD coming out of his mouth in words and song to and about The Lord.  He had already spoke/sung about The Lord being His SHIELD, ROCK, SWORD and ALL THAT HE WOULD NEED for any battle he would face.  David had spoke The Word of the Lord so much out of his mouth and built his faith so strong that when ANY CHALLENGER or CHALLENGE came to him . . . HE WAS READY to defeat it!  He killed the lion and the bear. Yet, what PREPARED David and the  atmosphere for Victory was WHAT DAVID HEARD FROM The Lord and then SPOKE OUT OF HIS MOUTH!

So when David came to his next challenge with Goliath and entered the ring of the Championship David had already spoke THE WORD out of his mouth SO MUCH that he was fully convinced BY FAITH that what God TOLD HIM, HE WAS FULLY ABLE to do in his life!  He had already seen God BE The One to kill that lion and that bear THROUGH himself!  David TRUSTED THE WORD OF THE LORD given to him and David acted on THE Word of The Lord and he saw the work done by God every time!

And how did it happen for David?  He SPOKE THE WORD that God would give him and then David would put it to music out in
those pastures and David would repeat The Word of God over and over by music and FAITH would RISE up in him and David's faith in The Word of God assisted him in all his life.  David would HUMBLE HIMSELF UNDER what God told him, he believed what God said, he spoke/sung them OVER and OVER out of his mouth and then he acted on those Words from The Lord.  Here we see that God told David another WORD and David did what he already knew to do . . . and that was to SPEAK THE WORD THAT THE LORD GAVE HIM and THEN HE ACTED ON THOSE WORDS FROM GOD!

“Today the Lord will conquer you, and I will kill you and cut off your head. And then I will give the dead bodies of your men to the birds and wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel! 47 And everyone assembled here will know that the Lord rescues his people, but not with sword and spear. This is the Lord’s battle, and he will give you to us!”  50  “So David triumphed over the Philistine with only a sling and a stone, for he had no sword. 51 Then David ran over and pulled Goliath’s sword from its sheath. David used it to kill him and cut off his head.”  1 Samuel 17:44-47,50-51 (NLT)

What Did We Just Read Here? 

Someone HUMBLING THEMSELVES UNDER THE MIGHTY WORD OF GOD GIVEN THEM!  We are reading about someone WHO WAS NOT MOVED BY WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE!  We are reading about someone not doing what their emotions could have been screaming at them!  We are reading about someone who DID NOT LEAN ON THEIR OWN UNDERSTANDING . . . THEY LEANED ON WHAT GOD SAID TO THEM, SPOKE WHAT GOD SAID TO THEM . . . AND THEN THEY DID IT!  We are reading about someone doing their lives IN HUMILITY!

 REMEMBER—Humility is coming under the Direction of The Lord, no matter what.  

Humility is not acting in your own ways and thinking that you and I are right about things, when God has already given His Word and/or Direction on it.  

 Humility is obeying Him no matter what we feel or think. 

 Humility is obeying The Lord when it is uncomfortable and not easy. 

 Humility is doing what The Lord has said or shown you when no one else is doing it with you. 

Humility is obeying The Lord when you don’t have all the answers and can’t figure how it’s all going to turn out.

 Humility is TRUSTING GOD . . . NO MATTER WHAT, NO MATTER WHEN . . . NO   MATTER WHO . . . NO MATTER WHAT!

Humbling Ourselves To God, His Word, His Direction, His Way, Not Our OWN . . . 

Because That Is What CHAMPIONS DO!

Is it time for you to humble yourself to The Lord?  Have you been living your life on your own understanding?  Has doing things God’s Way and by His Word just not been on your mind and heart?  Have you just been doing life without Him leading you?  Have you been the boss of your life and not Him?

JOIN ME in submitting to Him!  

JOIN ME in Humbling yourself TO WHATEVER HE TELLS US TO DO!

JOIN ME in surrendering our wills to HIS WILL.  HIS WANTS . . . NOT MY WANTS.

HIS WORD . . . NOT MY WORD.

 “Lord Jesus, I know that I am not where I need to be with You.  I stop right now and I make the decision to give You my life entirely.  I surrender to You Lord!  I leave my past, my sins and my way of doing things the way I want to and I ask You to forgive me of them all.  I believe that You were raised from the dead for me and took my place.  Please come into my life and change it and do something with my life.  I am ready to follow Your Plan, Destiny and PATH that you have for me.  I make You, Jesus, The Lord of my life.  Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit and Power!  I AM YOURS NOW!  And  Jesus, I AM YOURS TO COMMAND, in Jesus Name!”

2022-THE CHAMPIONS!

THE LORD SPOKE TO ME AS I WAS PRAYING ABOUT TEACHINGS AND WHAT HE WAS SAYING HE WANTED US TO KNOW AND HE TOLD AND TAUGHT ME AND THEN CONFIRMED IT . . . HE TAUGHT ME THAT WHEN YOU SEE THE ONES WHO PLAY IN THE SUPER BOWL, OR THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS OR EVEN THE LITTLE LEAGUE WORLD SERIES, NO MATTER THE AGE OF THE ONES IN THE SPORTS, THEY HAVE MADE IT TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF COMPETITION.  AND THERE IS ONE THING THAT ALL OF THESE HAVE IN COMMON.  THEY ALL HAVE MASTERED THE FUNDAMENTALS OF THEIR SPORT!   

“What Is A CHAMPION?”

Again, The Lord taught me and confirmed His Word that when we see people in the Super Bowl you and I are witnessing two teams of individuals that have mastered the fundamentals of their game.  “Fundamental” means one of the basic and important parts of something.  It is the very basis to which anything is built on and stands on.  The Fundamentals can also be seen as the Foundation that something is built on.  If one gets the Foundation right, or gets the Fundamentals right, then  anything can be built upon that Foundation or on those Fundamentals and become the best, due to what that person builds the very basics of their lives on.  Whether it is the example of sports, a business . . . anything and anyone built with a mastering of God’s Fundamentals will find  themselves in a Champion and Winning Position and Place in their lives.

One “champion” that we find in the Bible was Goliath.  The Bible calls Goliath a “champion” in  (1 Samuel 17:4).  The Hebrew word for “champion” in The Bible is Strong’s Number #1143 benayim which means, the space between two Armies.  When Goliath went into the CENTER or the “space between the two Armies” (one being Israel), he would taunt God’s People.  There was a NEED for a Championship to take place in this situation.  An “event” that would drive two that had arrived at the “top of their game” and go against the other who had come to the “top level of themselves” and see who would come out, the Champion.  One “champion,” Goliath was going into the CENTER place between two Armies where the fight for the Title would be, every day to seek out his opponent.  Saul, who was the King of Israel at the time SHOULD HAVE been the one that went to the CENTER (the space in between the two Armies) and fought the other champion who’s name was Goliath.

Now, with knowing that “Champion” in Hebrew means, “the space between two armies,” we can see that there was one who accepted the challenge to come and fight for God’s People and it was in between two Armies and that Champion was David.  Talk about the “odds” being against someone in the natural!  He was a teenager, he was NOT in the army, he did not have on a shield or have a sword.  And, David did not have anyone really “with” him.  His brothers were not even for him for they  questioned why he was even there that day.  Yet, David had been in great training himself, to prepare him for this day in History when he is about to face the giant and champion, Goliath. While David was “caring for his father’s sheep” he was fighting and defeating “giants” in the fields with the sheep.

“But David said to Saul, “Your servant was tending his father’s sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a sheep from the flock, 35 I went out after it and attacked it, and rescued the sheep from its mouth; and when it rose up against me, I grabbed it by its mane and struck it and killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has   defied the armies of the living God.”  1 Samuel 17:34-36 (NASB)

It was the things that God had trained him in, in the fields; that was his training.  David would worship The Lord in those fields and even write songs of worship to Father God in those fields and with those sheep.  He would have spent much time just by himself in the fields and renewing his mind of the things of God.  How we know this is that he would actually SING and SPEAK The Word of God OUTLOUD in those fields of training!  For, David’s WORDS WERE THE WORD OF GOD!  David’s meditation of The Word, God Himself, and His CONFESSION of what David heard and SPOKE out of his mouth in those solitude days and nights WAS HIS TRAINING!  

David SPOKE/SUNG of his trust in The Lord, that God was his Tower, his Strength, his Shepherd, HIS ROCK, HIS SHIELD, HIS SALVATION!  “The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my keen and firm Strength in Whom I will trust and take refuge, my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my High Tower.” Psalm 18:2 (AMPC)

“The Lord is my Rock, my Fortress, and my Deliverer; my God, my keen and firm Strength in Whom I will trust and take refuge, my Shield, and the Horn of my salvation, my High Tower.” Psalm 18:2 (AMPC)

David WAS SPEAKING BY SONG that God WAS HIS ROCK! 

David was SPEAKING BY SONG that God WAS HIS SHIELD!  

David was SPEAKING BY SONG that God WAS HIS DELIVERER!  

David was SPEAKING BY SONG that God WAS HIS STRENGTH!

This Psalm was SPOKEN out of David's mouth!  David WAS PROFESSING even about that day with Goliath in advance!

David had established in his heart that no matter what "Giant” of a situation that came to him he was looking to God to be his SHIELD, his DELIVERER, his ROCK!  And did David believe what he said out of his mouth?  Those words that he spoke with music was what SET HIM UP to DEFEAT and kill the “giants” that came in his life called, “a lion” and a “bear.”  And David DID kill those “giants” that came into his life and those BATTLES that came prepared him for his next “arena” with a giant by the name of Goliath!  David believed the words he sung by faith!  David believed and therefore, he spoke and received the fruit of those words he spoke/sung! 

“Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” (Proverbs 18:21) 

David was offered weaponry and an armor/shield by King Saul, who again, was the one who should have handled this “giant.”   But, David did not accept what was  offered to him “by man.”  He did not let the “ways of this world” move him to use its WAYS and REASONINGS.  No, David decided that he would use the same FUNDAMENTALS that God had trained him to use in fighting his former “competitors” of the lion and the bear.  David had prepared his heart by speaking/singing The Word out of his mouth and he had prepared the ATMOSPHERE to enter “the ring” with his next “giant” which was Goliath.  David had spoken by faith The Word of God . . . That God WAS HIS SHIELD!  That GOD WAS HIS ROCK!  That God WAS HIS DELIVERER!

David PREPARED the ATMOSPHERE and his heart before he got to the CHAMPIONSHIP ARENA with Goliath! 

David had filled himself up with SO MUCH Of THE WORD OF GOD that it was  coming out of HIS MOUTH!  He meditated on God to the point that God flowed out of David’s heart.  David was a conduit for God to flow through him and out of his mouth into the atmosphere of the Earth Realm!  And those Words of God spoken by David CHANGED EVERYTHING in the atmosphere TO COME in David’s life in the arena of the Championship with Goliath!  Remember, the word “CHAMPION” in Hebrew is Strong’s Number #1143 benayim which means, the space between two Armies.  When David arrived to the “Championship” place, he found that it was between two Armies!  The “champion” named Goliath would go into the CENTER of those two Armies daily waiting on his competitor to come to the CENTER with him.  AND THE DAY HAD COME!  Goliath the “champion” was already in the CENTER of two Armies, he was already in THE SPACE BETWEEN THE TWO ARMIES.  

“And the Philistines stood on a mountain on one side and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side, with the valley between them.” 1 Samuel 17:3 (AMPC)

“The Philistine came out every morning and  evening and stood before the Israelite army. Goliath insulted Israel like this for 40 days.” 1 Samuel 17:16 

Yet, What Does It Take To Become The NEW CHAMPION?  

Another “Champion” Must Enter Into The Space Between Two Armies And Fight The One Who Sits In Authority As “champion.”  

David defied the opposition and rejection of his brothers and of the ridicule of the King of Israel himself!  His brothers were jealous of him and wrongly accused him and King Saul told him he was ridiculous for wanting to fight Goliath. (1 Samuel 17:33)  Why did David resist the persecution and keep his mind on the battle?  

Because That Is What CHAMPIONS DO!

We can see that what David spoke/sung was EXACTLY WHAT HE BELIEVED; Who God was and what God would do!  He saw what weapons that Goliath had at the Championship, YET HE KNEW WHO HIS WEAPONS WERE AND WHO WOULD FIGHT HIS BATTLE FOR HIM and WITH HIM!  God was his SHIELD. God was his SWORD.  God was his SHEPHERD.  God was his ROCK.  God was his DELIVERER!  Everything that David had spoke/sung out of his mouth worked on the fields he fought on and THOSE WORDS OF GOD WOULD BE WHAT WOULD FIGHT FOR HIM THIS DAY OF The Championship!  He had spoke/sung The Word of God over and over and filled himself with God and His Word and HE WAS READY for his Big Day of Battle!

GOD’S AUTHORITY IN YOUR MOUTH!

David had arrived to the Championship Event in his life even though he did not know that he was going to a literal Championship that day!  David had such a routine in his life formed of speaking The Word of God out of his mouth that when it came to this BIG DAY in his life he began speaking The Word of GOD AT THE BATTLEFIELD TOO!  Just like David did in the field at his other battles!  David spoke with THE AUTHORITY and MIGHT and STRENGTH that he had filled himself up with!  David was full of The Word of God and he knew that God would work through him in this battle just like he did before.  David understood the POWER OF SPEAKING THE WORD OUT OF HIS MOUTH AND THEN SEEING THE VICTORY COME!  

DAVID WAS PREPARED FOR THIS BATTLE!  David was FULL of God’s WORD BEFORE HE ARRIVED ON THIS DAY!  David BELIEVED God’s Word and then he SPOKE GOD’S WORD . . . Again and Again. 

David has seen God do The Word that would come out of his mouth over and over.  And with all Authority of God,  David spoke out of his mouth what he and God were going to do at the Championship.

“Today the Lord will conquer you, and I will kill you and cut off your head. And then I will give the dead bodies of your men to the birds and wild animals, and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel! 47 And everyone assembled here will know that the Lord rescues his people, but not with sword and spear. This is the Lord’s battle, and he will give you to us!”  1 Samuel 17: 46-47 (NLT)

The Between

To remind ourselves, one of the words for “CHAMPION” in Hebrew is Strong’s Number #1143 benayim which means, the space between two Armies.  There is a root word to that Hebrew word and it is Strong’s Number #996, bayin; it means an interval, space between.  It means BETWEEN things.  Some of the things that it lists are:

BETWEEN THE . . . Pieces, Walls, Feet, Merchants, Cherubim, Waters . . . 

And yet there is one thing that this root word of Champion means that I bring to you and that is the word, forehead.  Deuteronomy 11:18 (AMPC) tells us about this root word of Champion of the forehead.  

“Therefore you shall lay up these My words in your [minds and] hearts and in your [entire] being, and bind them for a sign upon your hands and as forehead bands between your eyes.” Deuteronomy 11:18 (AMPC)

God was telling His People to “lay up” or we would say, “store up” or “fill up” His Word inside of them (“in your  entire being”) and bind The Word on your forehead or what we would know of today, fill your heart AND MIND with The Word of God!  The space “between our eyes!”

Forehead—The space “between our eyes!”  What we are thinking about! 

 Champions are made in between Two Armies. 

 Champions are made in the space between their eyes, their minds!

What we are filling ourselves with; doubt, worry, anxiety, troubles, or The Word of God, what we are doing with the space between our eyes (our minds) IS BIG!  David learned that to fill himself with The Word, to believe The Word with all his heart and then speak it out into the atmosphere . . . Worked!  David had mastered what he would concentrate on and trust and speak out of his mouth!  He PUT ALL HIS TRUST ON THE WORD!  David believed God and He believed The Words of God!

David was THE ONLY ONE IN THAT BATTLE WHO WAS BELIEVING WHAT GOD SAID!  

Champions are made in between Two Armies.  

Champions are made in the space  between their eyes, their minds!

Goliath believed with all his heart and mind that HE was the greatest warrior and that no one could defeat him.  Goliath believed in his own strength, size and abilities.  David believed ONLY in God’s Word.  David was now in the Championship with the champion, one that had held that title for quite some time and was very well known for his many victories.  And the only way that David could become a champion is that he defeated the reigning champion, Goliath.  So, since Jehovah God was David’s “Coach” for the Championship game, God would have David speak to Goliath and speak ABOUT HIS HEAD!  WHERE GOLIATH’S FOREHEAD WAS!

David then spoke exactly what God had placed on his heart to do and that was that God would conquer Goliath and David would cut his head, his forehead off.  God was saying that He was cutting HIS CHAMPION status off!  For, “champion” means “forehead.”  And God even made sure of His Message that He was removing the “champion” status of Goliath by having the stone that David flew at Goliath to hit Goliath where?  IN THE “FOREHEAD!”

“Reaching into his shepherd’s bag and taking out a stone, he hurled it with his sling and hit the Philistine in the forehead. The stone sank in, and Goliath stumbled and fell face down on the ground.” 1 Samuel 17:49, 51

Once the “forehead” of that champion named Goliath was defeated,  A NEW CHAMPION WAS PUT In HIS PLACE!  David defeated Goliath by what he believed and Who he believed in!  The Championship was won by David by The Word of God and what David deposited in himself and let come out of his mouth.  What David was putting in his heart and in the “space between his eyes” (his mind and heart) was FAR GREATER than what Goliath had put in his!  And, the “forehead” of the champion named Goliath was overpowered by what the “forehead” (mind) of the New Champion David thought!

Our intake of The Word of God and believing The Word and speaking The Word is so important!  David REALLY got this.  He also understood about controlling his thoughts in the midst of opposition, ridicule in private and public, and literally facing a GIANT!  Yet, once again CHAMPIONS ARE MADE BETWEEN TWO ARMIES!

The word “Mahanaim” in Hebrew means “Two Camps, Two Armies.”  And that is the name of the Mission that God has placed in this Ministry!  The building of Two Places, Two Camps to build up Warriors for God!  To build CHAMPIONS For God!  CHAMPIONS ARE MADE BETWEEN TWO CAMPS, TWO ARMIES! 

I believe that you who are reading this are called to be a Champion for The Lord and His Kingdom.  And there are places rising up to help you become who you really are.  We call to the heart of you, the warrior in you by God.  If The Lord is stirring up in your being that you know there is more to know and for you to become, contact JCM and by The Lord’s Leading, join a rising Army.  

Mahanaim Is Where Champions Are Made!

This Scripture tells so clearly that believing this Truth and confessing it with your whole heart is God’s operational procedure for us on becoming Born Again.  Read this again:

Pray this Prayer out loud and mean it with all your heart in Jesus Name!

“Lord Jesus, I know that I am not where I need to be with You.  I stop right now and I make the decision to give You my life entirely.  I  surrender to You Lord!  I leave my past, my sins and my way of doing things the way I want to and I ask You to forgive me of them all.  I believe that You were raised from the dead for me and took my place.   Please come into my life and change it and do something with my life.  I am ready to follow Your Plan,  Destiny and PATH that you have for me.  I make You, Jesus, The Lord of my life.  Please fill me with Your Holy Spirit and Power!  I AM YOURS NOW!  And Jesus, I AM YOURS TO  COMMAND, Sir in Jesus Name!”

If you prayed and decided to surrender your all and life to The Lord, please let us know here at the Ministry.  We want to rejoice with you and send you some Resources to help you get a good start with your walk and journey with the Lord!  Welcome to the Family! Remember and keep on remembering ALL THE VICTORIES that you and God have seen happen!  Recall what God has done for you. THINK ON what The Word says and who you really are in HIM.  Keep on your mind the victories like David did.  He kept the victories of the lion and the bear on his mind continuously!  And those mindful victories and breakthroughs with God SET HIM UP to defeat the Goliath that was in his future!  Remember YOUR Lions and Bears!  We Love You!  Keep Getting Ready,  Jesus Is Coming! - Jamie

First Day On Property Taping TV Spots 

WE HAVE A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT TO MAKE TO YOU!

Those of you that have been following the Ministry for the last few years know that The Lord has been speaking to us about a Mission that The Lord calls, “Mahanaim.”  “Mahanaim” means “Two Camps, Two Armies.”  The Lord had told us repeatedly that He wanted two Campuses to be built, one in the Mountains and one by the Sea.  The one in the Mountains He called, “Issachar” and the one by the Sea He called it, “Zebulon.”  Through much time seeking Him and Him leading us through many confirmations, we knew that the one Campus would be in Hico, WV and the other in the location of Wilmington, NC.

We, at the direction of The Lord, sold our home and property and told The Lord that we would give what we had to obtain the Land and all that He wanted.  So, we sold our debt free home and land and waited to hear what The Lord would tell us to do next.  He clearly spoke to us about the Land in Hico, WV to which we now have and live and meet on for Services.  We have also purchased a 90X100 Building that is being built on this Property in Hico, WV which is called The Word Of Life Center (TWLC).

God has now done something MARVELOUS!  On 24 January 2022, a piece of Property near  Wilmington, NC in precisely Leland, NC (right outside of  Wilmington, NC on the Highway of  Interstate 74) was SOWED INTO JAMIE CARTE MINISTRIES!  9.35 ACRES OF COMMERCIAL PROPERTY WAS GIVEN TO THE MINISTRY TO BUILD THE “ZEBULON” CAMPUS ON!  HALLELUJAH!  GLORY TO GOD! We Are Still Amazed At What The Lord Has Done!  He Is Fulfilling His Word, “Mahanaim,” Two Camps, Two Armies!”

WE ARE OVERWHELMED WITH THE GOODNESS OF GOD!  What a CONFIRMATION Of His Word to us and the People of this Ministry!  What a GIFT!  What a TRULY MARVELOUS thing to happen!  

“This is from the Lord and is His doing; it is marvelous in our eyes.”  Psalm 118:23 (AMPC)

And This BEAUTIFUL GIFT Was Given TO EVERY ONE OF YOU, COVENANT PARTNERS and FRIENDS OF JCM!  YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED TO THIS MISSION and The Lord has given YOU THIS GIFT!  YOU FAITHFULLY GIVE And PRAY For This Mission And This Ministry And Jesus Is Now Expanding YOU!  

“ . . . For as is the share of him who goes down into the battle, so shall his share be who stays by the provisions and supplies; they shall share alike.”  25 So from that day forward he made it a statute and an ordinance for Israel to this day.”   

1 Samuel 30:24-25 (AMP)

This Has Been ESTABLISHED By God!  What You Have Made Happen For This  Ministry and (God’s Word) YOU GET THE SAME VICTORIES AND SHARE OF WHAT GOD IS DOING!  THE LORD IS EXPANDING YOUR TERRITORIES!  YOU SHALL BE REWARDED!  God uses People!  And You Have Made The Beautiful Decision To Be In This Ministry and To Make It Happen!

Really Discipled!  YOU Are A Major PART Of This Ministry and This Is The Lord’s Doing!  Let’s Build These Campuses For The King!  Let’s Build His Armies For HIM!

THANK YOU FOR STANDING WITH US!  KNOW THAT WE ARE STANDING WITH YOU ALSO!  We are praying and decreeing The Word over you daily!  

Looking BACK To See FORWARD!  

We spoke last Month about all that THIS YEAR OF “22” IS FOR US PROPHETICALLY!  Wonderful, just wonderful things from The Lord are in store for us who will believe God and His Word and what He Is saying to us that we can BELIEVE HIM FOR in this “Set Up” of a Year!  (That is what He said to me about this Year!)  He said, “This Is A Set Up!”

Let’s do a short review of what “22” means and the meaning of this Year and ALL that has been strategically placed to “SET UP” ON TOP OF EACH OTHER for us!  One thing SETTING ON TOP of another thing!  All of it, at ONE TIME, “SETTING” ON TOP OF ANOTHER . . . STACKED UP FOR US!

The FIRST Thing That Is “Stacked” For Us Is . . . 

 Deuteronomy 15:1-6 (NLT)

 “At the end of every seventh year you must cancel the debts of everyone who owes you money. 2 This is how it must be done. Everyone must cancel the loans they have made to their fellow Israelites. They must not demand  payment from their neighbors or relatives, for the Lord’s time of release has arrived. 3 This release from debt,  however, applies only to your fellow Israelites—not to the foreigners living among you. 4 There should be no poor among you, for the Lord your God will greatly bless you in the land he is giving you as a special possession. 5 You will receive this blessing if you are careful to obey all the commands of the Lord your God that I am giving you  today.  6 The Lord your God will bless you as he has promised. You will lend money to many nations but will never need to borrow. You will rule many nations, but they will not rule over you.”

The Hebrew Year - 5782. This is a Shmita  (Shemitah) Year—or a seventh year, Beloved!

We are now in the Hebrew Year of the number of 5782 and it is a Year of a Shemitah on the Hebrew calendar.  We entered into this Shemitah Year on the date of the Feast of Trumpets on the Hebrew calendar.  The day on the Gregorian calendar (the one we use here in the United States), that we came into this New Year of Shemitah is 07 September 2021.  The Shemitah Year will end at the next Feast of Trumpets also.  So, the Shemitah is one TIME that we are in right now.

This is the first thing to be “Set Up” on top of another for us!  God is so good that He put a specific TIME in place that there had to be a RELEASE FOR GOD’S PEOPLE from their Debts.  So MANY TIMES the Debt Canceling Time of a Shemitah would be CANCELING DEBTS and WOULD BE SETTING PEOPLE FREE ALSO!  The ones working and enslaved to a Debt they had were also RELEASED FROM THEIR “PAYMENT” of their labor!  The TIME of Shemitah is when Debt is canceled off the books and people!  Both are released from bondage and places of great toil and captivity from what they or someone else indebted them into!  This TIME of Shemitah is truly a glorious prophetic TIME for God’s People for Release, Trust, Resting in God (His Word), Debt Freedom and Newness.  A TIME of God, for those who will believe!  We Are In A TIME Of RELEASE!  

And just to remind our hearts and see that it truly is a TIME OF RELEASE . . . The Property In North Carolina WAS RELEASED IN THIS YEAR OF SHEMITAH to the Ministry!  Get Excited!  What Are YOU Needing To Be Released?  It’s TIME For YOU To Release!  And, It Is TIME For God To Release!  WE ARE IN THE TIME OF SHEMITAH!  This is the FIRST Thing God Has “Stacked” in this Year!

The Second “Stack” Is A “22”

There are some great things that The Lord wants us to SEE and BE IN in this Year of “22!”  To recap, just some of the things that the number “2” means are:

2 - Double . . . Double anointing . . . Disciples sent out 

2 x 2 . . . Two witnesses establish truth . . . Partnership, multiplication . . . And divide or separate . . .

We had wrote last Month that The Year of “22” will be a Great Year of Discipleship!  Mighty Fathers and Mothers of The Lord will disciple mighty men and women of God!  It will require GREAT SURRENDER on both the Fathers and Mothers of The Lord and the Sons and Daughters of God!  For all it will require the giving of their lives.  Elisha surrendered his all!  All the comforts of his home and the business that he had and left to follow the one that The Lord had assigned to equip him for his destiny, Elijah. (1 Kings 19:19-21) 

In “22” the disciples of those assigned to teach them and mold them that will STICK TO THEIR TEACHERS—THEIR FATHERS and MOTHERS IN THE LORD, WILL RECEIVE A DOUBLE OF WHAT THAT ONE HAS, again, for those who will believe . . . and surrender!  

“And so it was, when they had crossed over, that Elijah said to Elisha, “Ask! What may I do for you, before I am taken away from you?” Elisha said, “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.” 2 Kings 2:9 (NKJV)

The Third “Stack” Of The SET

In the Hebrew Alphabet the twenty-second (22) and last letter is Tav.  Tav has the numerical value in Hebrew of 400.  All Hebrew Letters have a  numerical meaning.  The letter, Tav, (the 22nd and last letter) numerical  meaning is 400.  400 means the BEGINNING and END of something.  It is when someone goes into a Door or through a Threshold to ENTER or LEAVE, to END or BEGIN something!  It was the TIME of 400 WHEN THE Hebrew Children were raptured out to Egypt!  A New Beginning and a End of something.  Another example of a 400 in the Bible was that from the last prophecy that came forth in the Book of Malachi till we arrive in the New Testament there were 400 years of SILENCE.  No prophets of The Lord were appointed by The Lord to speak to the People for 400 years until John The Baptist!  

The one that would call out and be the one who Publically Recognized, Publically Prophesied about, Prepared the people for the Ministry of Jesus and Baptized The Messiah, Himself.  The one who broke the “400” silence was John The Baptist.  And it had to be a specific TIME of God and a specific Prophetic TIME in History!  And that TIME in History was at 400.  The TIME when a New Prophetic and Extraordinary TIME Of God BEGAN and a time of silence ENDED!  BEGINNING and ENDING in a TIME and PLACE of 400!  

22 = TAV = 400

THE “2” Factors

There are two things that The Lord has given me to give to you this Month.  And they will take us to the Village where Jesus grew up. Let’s go to Nazareth.  Nazareth was a small farming Village.  It was the place where the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary and told her that she was chosen to be the mother and carry The Messiah.  It was the place that an angel of The Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and gave him the directions to marry Mary and that the baby she carried was the Messiah.  Big things HAPPENED IN Nazareth! Jesus, Himself grew up in this Village for Mary and Joseph returned to Nazareth after going to Bethlehem and then on to Egypt.

With not many people living in this small Village it would be understood that everyone was either related to each other and/or everyone knew each other.  When Jesus is of age to go into the Ministry that Father God had called Him to do, we find that Jesus returns to His hometown of Nazareth.  Jesus goes to the synagogue that He would have grown up in and attended weekly and He is handed the scroll to be read from Isaiah on that Sabbath.  Jesus had been ministering in the Galilee Region and in the synagogue of Capernaum and all in that Region celebrated Him and were amazed at His teachings.  And this day Jesus is standing in front of His family and all that knew Him growing up.

Luke 4:16-30 (NLT) “When he came to the village of Nazareth, his boyhood home, he went as usual to the synagogue on the Sabbath and stood up to read the Scriptures. 17  The scroll of Isaiah the prophet was handed to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where this was written: 18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, for he has anointed me to bring Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, 19 and that the time of the Lord’s favor has come.” 20 He rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant, and sat down. All eyes in the synagogue looked at him intently. 21 Then he  began to speak to them. “The Scripture you’ve just heard has been fulfilled this very day!” 22 Everyone spoke well of him and was amazed by the gracious words that came from his lips. “How can this be?” they asked. “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?”

23 Then he said, “You will undoubtedly quote me this proverb: ‘Physician, heal yourself’—meaning, ‘Do miracles here in your hometown like those you did in Capernaum.’ 24 But I tell you the truth, no prophet is accepted in his own hometown. 25 “Certainly there were many needy widows in Israel in Elijah’s time, when the heavens were closed for three and a half years, and a severe famine devastated the land. 26 Yet Elijah was not sent to any of them. He was sent instead to a foreigner—a widow of Zarephath in the land of Sidon. 27 And many in Israel had leprosy in the time of the prophet Elisha, but the only one healed was Naaman, a  Syrian.”

28 When they heard this, the people in the synagogue were furious. 29 Jumping up, they mobbed him and forced him to the edge of the hill on which the town was built. They intended to push him over the cliff, 30 but he passed right through the crowd and went on his way.”

This is such a terrible day in Jesus’ Life!  To go from hearing The Word, Himself, declare that He was there to do a Ministry and He wanted to do these wonderful things for THEM!  The people He loved and grew up with, they did not honor Jesus.  They did not value the anointing on His Life and they didn’t take heed to The Truth that was being spoken to them, by Truth, Himself!  

So, instead of asking Him to leave, taking Him in the back of the synagogue and tell Him that He could not speak there anymore, they “mob” Him and “force” Him to the edge of a cliff and are going to kill Him!  Really think about this!  They are about to murder Him!  The people of His hometown!  Yet Jesus, still loving them, slipped right through them and left.

How do I know that Jesus was still in His Love for them?  “Love bears up under anything and everything that comes . . . Its hopes are fadeless UNDER ALL CIRCUMSTANCES, and it ENDURES EVERYTHING WITHOUT WEAKENING. Love never fails. (1 Corinthians 13:7-8) Jesus staying in LOVE saved Him!  He was not taking account of the evil being done to Him, He paid no attention TO A SUFFERED HARM. (Verse 5)

We then find Jesus continuing His Ministry and moving from Nazareth to Capernaum by the Sea.  This is where His home was and a lot of His Ministry was there, it was considered His Ministry Headquarters.  He would travel and go back there and conduct many Meetings in Capernaum and in the area.  Much is happening in His Life and Ministry and He has chosen 12 disciples to be a part of His Ministry Team.  Demons are cast out of people and they are healed, the dead is raised back to life, people’s lives are restored.  This is exactly what he stood up in His hometown synagogue and announced that He would be doing and it was to begin there!  

Then something is told to us in Mark 6:1-13 (NLT), 

“Jesus left that part of the country and returned with his disciples to Nazareth, his hometown. 2 The next  Sabbath he began teaching in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed. They asked, “Where did he get all this wisdom and the power to perform such miracles?” 3 Then they scoffed, “He’s just a carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon. And his sisters live right here among us.” They were deeply  offended and refused to believe in him. 4 Then Jesus told them, “A prophet is honored everywhere except in his own hometown and among his relatives and his own family.” 5 And because of their unbelief, he couldn’t do any miracles among them except to place his hands on a few sick people and heal them. 6 And he was amazed at their unbelief.”

Jesus returns to Nazareth to what appears to be a second time, for Mark 6 tells us He ”returned” to Nazareth.  It also tells us that at this account of Him teaching in the synagogue that they “scoffed” at Him.  Scoff means to show contempt, to mock, to have insolence and disrespect , to tease, laugh at and reject.  In this instance, it does not tell us that they mobbed Him and forced Him to the cliff of Nazareth to push Him off.  So, one would believe that this is a second attempt to minister to the people of His hometown.  Again, Jesus loved these people of His hometown of Nazareth.

I want us to really see something in Mark 6.  The Word says that Jesus “COULDN’T” do any miracles among them  except lay His Hands on a few people.  It doesn’t say wouldn’t, it says “couldn’t.”  “But Pastor Jamie, Jesus can do anything He wants to!”  No He can’t.  He COULD NOT DO WHAT HE WENT THERE TO DO.  He intended to go back to His hometown and STILL love on and minister to those people.  And that’s after some of them tried to kill Him!  He still tried to go back and accomplish what HE WANTED TO DO!  WHAT FATHER GOD WANTED TO DO!  For Jesus never did anything unless Father told Him to or said anything unless Father told Him to say those words.

There are times that Jesus CANNOT heal or do things for people!  It is depended upon OUR BELIEF and on another very BIG THING! Our LOVE WALK!  How we are, or are not, living in Love!  So, It’s About Our Faith and Our Love Walk on whether Jesus can minister to us!  Here is what LOVE is described as in The Word.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (AMPC)
  “Love endures long and is  patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with  jealousy, is not boastful or  vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. 5 It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. 6 It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.  7 Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are  fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]. 8 Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end] . . .”

[1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (AMPC) is February’s JCM’s  Discipleship Homework!  Join Us in reading it out

loud EVERY DAY in February!]

Now, after reading what LOVE is from The Word of God most of the people in Nazareth were NOT in their LOVE WALK with Jesus! They were boiling over with jealousy, boastful, arrogant and inflated with pride, rude, self seeking, touchy, resentful and acting unbecomingly.  And due to their LOVE condition, THEY WOULD NOT BELIEVE!  They would have NO FAITH for what Jesus,  The Word, said.  The Word was telling them The Word and they would NOT RECEIVE THE WORD!  They “refused to believe!”  They were out of LOVE and it put them in the place in their own will to not believe.

Our FAITH and what we BY OUR OWN WILL . . . BELIEVE has to do with our OUR WILL TO LOVE!  If we REFUSE to DO LOVE the way The Word tells us that LOVE BEHAVES . . . Then we WILL NOT be able to BELIEVE THE WORD . . . And therefore, WILL PLACE OURSELVES in the place of not receiving from The Word!

Galatians 5:6 (KJV) “. . . but Faith which worketh by love.”

The people scoffed at Jesus.  You may be thinking, “I would NEVER scoff at Jesus!”  The people refused to HONOR HIM.  Jesus IS THE BIBLE.  Jesus IS THE WORD.  They were DISHONORING THE WORD.  They refused to believe The Word.  Are there just certain things in The Word that you will “go along with?”  Are there things in The Word that you refuse?  Healing, miracles, prosperity, tongues and praying in The Spirit, casting our demons, laying on of hands, anointing with oil, praise and worship . . . Is there anything in The Word that you refuse?  That you just won’t do or believe in to do?  “Unbelief” is why Jesus “couldn’t” minister, not wouldn’t . . . HE COULD NOT.

And if you believe but are out of your LOVE WALK and continue to stay out and continue to do things your own way then your FAITH cannot work!  So, the things that you are believing in won’t be able to manifest without us cooperating with HOW God says to LOVE. Our FAITH . . . WORKS . . . BY LOVE!  Not our way or thinking on HOW LOVE IS.  It is The Way God, His Word says LOVE IS and how we are to behave.

The Word goes on to tell us that Jesus was “AMAZED at their unbelief.”  Other Translations say that Jesus was ASTONISHED at their unbelief!  And in another Translation it states that Jesus MARVELED at their unbelief! 

“And without faith it is impossible to please God.” Hebrews 11:6 (NIV) 

Jesus had not encountered that level of unbelief since He had been ministering.  He is looking at the people He loves, His family, his neighbors and friends from where He grew up and listening to their disdain for Him.  He is astonished that these people feel and think the way they do towards Him and His Words, which is The Word of God.  And, LOVE, THE WORD HIMSELF, could not do what The Will of God was for them.  Let’s never go against The Word of God!  Let’s get in LOVE and stay in our LOVE WALK!  Let’s not doubt The Word, let’s DO and BE THE WORD OF GOD!  We then go on to see what happens after all of this in Jesus’ Hometown.

“And he was amazed at their unbelief. Then Jesus went from village to village, teaching the people. 7 And he called his twelve disciples together and began sending them out two by two, giving them authority to cast out evil spirits. 8 He told them to take nothing for their journey except a walking stick—no food, no traveler’s bag, no money. 9 He allowed them to wear sandals but not to take a change of clothes. 10 “Wherever you go,” he said, “stay in the same house until you leave town. 11 But if any place  refuses to welcome you or listen to you, shake its dust from your feet as you leave to show that you have abandoned those people to their fate.” 12 So the disciples went out, telling everyone they met to repent of their sins and turn to God. 13 And they cast out many demons and healed many sick people, anointing them with olive oil.” Mark 6:6-13 NLT

Jesus left that situation in His hometown and then starting

sending His Disciples out 2 BY 2!

 And this is THE YEAR OF “22!” 

This is THE YEAR of TAV!  

This is THE YEAR of Shemitah!

This is the Year where it will be clearly seen on who is living in FAITH and in BELIEF of what The Word says and who refuses to believe. This is the TIME when WHO IS LIVING IN LOVE and who is not will be clearly seen!  For after the clear DISPLAY of how these people were living, believing, thinking and acting . . . We see Jesus begin to operate in the “2 and 2” ways and operational procedures of The Kingdom!

Jesus moved into the “2 and 2” Realm and anointed the ones who WOULD BELIEVE and who WOULD LOVE PEOPLE and lay hands on them and heal them and drive out demons from them and minster to them!  Yet, the “2 and 2” Realm has to be operating with a “2,” a mutual agreement.  Both the one ministering and the one receiving HAVE TO BOTH BELIEVE!  Both the one ministering and the one receiving BOTH HAVE TO BE IN FAITH!  Both the one ministering and the one receiving HAVE TO BOTH BE LIVING IN AND WALKING IN LOVE!  

“2 BY 2” and all of the benefits of this Prophetic TIME, MUST BE DONE IN FAITH!  And, FAITH OPERATES BY LOVE!  So, This SET of “2’s” (22) MUST BE IN OPERATION TOGETHER!  And that, Beloved is the Addition to THE STACK of what is “SET UP” on top of the others, all this Year!

THE YEAR OF “22!” 

THE YEAR of  TAV!  

THE YEAR of Shemitah!

THE YEAR of The SET UP! 

of FAITH and LOVE!

It is TIME to give your all to The King!  All your TRUST, All yourself to His Word, All of YOU To Him!  Believe with all your heart and confess with your mouth,

“Jesus, I know that I have sinned and I have not been following You.  I have been living life on my own and I do not want to do that any longer.  I have not made You THE LORD of my life.  I have been doing life without You.  I make the decision right now to make You The Lord of my life.  Please come into my life and save me.  I renounce sin and the past.  I decide to follow You and your Word.  Please fill me with The Holy Spirit and Power.  I am Yours to command, Sir, in Jesus Name!”

Please let us know if you have decided to surrender your all to The King!  And if you are in need of a Bible, please let us know!  It is the perfect TIME to SET YOURSELF UP with The King . . . You and Him . . . LIVING “2 BY 2” in “22!”  We Love You and We Are Praying For You!  Until Next Time . . . 

Keep Getting Ready, Jesus Is Coming!
