Foreword to the
article Repentance and Realignment
The morning after, it’s rough…
I have had several calls this morning, all sharing their heart and their hurt
over the outcome of the elections. It hurts! It’s rough and it will not just go
away - the reality is,
this is where we are as a nation.
The people of America are upset at where things have been and they had their
say…The change that is “promised” is far from the answer to our nation’s
demise. The only thing that will reset this nation is true revival - from
heaven. I’m not talking about a week of meetings that we have been so lulled
into “thinking” that is revival, I’m talking about God’s definition of
“revival”. God wants to change the hearts of the nation, It’s our only hope.
The way I feel, It reminds me of the scripture that says paraphrase,
When the righteous are in power things go well for the people, but when
wickedness is in authority the people suffer.
We need to
pray for Mercy, God will hear the cries of the righteous! Let me share another
perspective I feel like I heard this morning.
“If we pray, it will lessen the affect of what could happen.” This next 4 years
will be spent by the Church on it’s face, before the Lord.
Which is actually where the Lord wanted us the whole time. The Lord uses This type of thing in the life of the believer to get him or her into the place
He needs them to be, in alignment with heaven.
The Lord has strategies He wants to release and a will He wants to communicate.
Last night before we saw any of the election results, the Lord gave me a word. I
have attached it to this email. Don’t fear, Don’t despair, trust the Lord and
ask
Him what He wants you to do. Align yourselves with that. Here
we are even more determined pray and listen for His orders and be obedient to
that. God is still in control!!!
Repentance and Realignment
Do you feel like you have been hit in the stomach real hard? That’s your spirit
responding to the outcome of the election. While it was a blow, we are not
knocked out, nor have we lost the war. The issue is between Light and darkness.
We are assured by the Lord that the ‘gates of hell” (authority of hell) will not
overtake His Body.
God’s issue about this election was not about a man and many of the issues that
were brought up… It is about Life, Life of the unborn. Their blood cries up
from the earth. The Lord said this election was not about black or white, but
“RED”, the blood of the unborn. God’s people have to stand as a standard of the
heart of God in the earth. Yeshua said in the Lord’s prayer, “let it be done on
earth as it is in heaven,” this is His will, and eventually it will be so in the
earth during the Kingdom. The Scripture says; Romans 8:19 The creation
waits eagerly for the sons of God to be revealed;
The people of this nation voted for “change”, but this change will not bring
what was promised. Many of these were “believers”, but they did not vote the
heart of the Lord. The Lord sent a word through a ministry friend of ours,
where God said paraphrased, “He was watching our vote, if we voted for death (a
candidate that was pro-choice) vs life, it would open a door to the spirit of
death to our families.” Bob Jones said in the 2009 Shepherd’s Rod, “this
will be a rough year.”
So we have our work cut out for us in prayer.
As I was praying last night, I got a word, here’s what it was:
The Body of Messiah (as a whole) must re-evaluate their stand in this season.
This is a season to grow up and take responsibility for what we are accountable
for. The Body of Messiah is called to be a spiritual force to be reckoned with,
a stand for righteousness and morality that holds back lawlessness. We are
suppose to be standing for His heart, His ways. Standing against injustice, a
voice for the unborn, for His plan for man in marriage. We are in the process
of loosing our freedoms, and it is already well on the way. This is a serious
wake up call for the Body.
God is calling for those who have called themselves by His Name to choose who we
will serve… a line has been drawn in the sand -We have
to stand on His revealed will, His Word, there can be no compromise!
The battle we have ahead is:
Abortion, Marriage (biblical definition – between one man and one women), Family
values, Justice
Stand against racism and anti-Semitism, Israel and Human trafficking
God is still on His throne, He was not shocked by the outcome of the election.
The American people, for whatever the reason voted for what they wanted.
It is a sad commentary of where we are as a nation. That being said, we need
mercy from the Lord.
So what now?
The Body will find itself moved into a culture of prayer and fasting, not a
prayer meeting. If we are to make it in the coming days. God will intervene, but
it will not be without prayer. This will create the heart of the Lord in His
people and will break off and shake loose anything that is not like Him. So the
Body is going through a greater reformation than we’ve experienced in the
earth. Hold on and cooperate with the Lord. He will not be shaken.
The Lord does not want you tangled up in arguments and meaningless conversations
about what has happened. We are commanded in Scripture to pray for those in
authority over us.
We need marching orders from the Throne of God. He wants you to find out what He
wants now and move forward with that.
We will need to pray to cut off the wrong voices speaking to Obama, and to route
the plans and the purposes the enemy would have that could easily be implemented
in an administration that does not have His heart. We need God to place Daniels
made ready for these days, in or around this administration.
Keep in mind the Lord is holding the American Church accountable for what is
happening in America,
We need mercy,
grace and truth to come and we need true revival, a nation turned back to God.
Pray for Mercy!
