We have all been watching the news and isn't it interesting? It seems that
it takes a tragedy to turn people's hearts back to God and bring unity. Unity
is very important, however, unity under what banner?
As a nation, we seem to be moving toward easier wire taps for the federal
government, closer scrutiny of all our people, and rightly so or else how in
the natural or flesh can we deal with these things? The Ten Commandments were
also laws designed for the flesh, or natural man, as rules to keep man from
self destruction.
Isn't it interesting how Paul said, 'The Law was good and was there as a
schoolmaster until Faith has come.' However, 'If we walked in/by the Spirit, we
were not under the Law.' Because of the fruit, being in the Spirit would
produce in us "Love, grace, forgiveness, kindness, gentleness,
longsuffering, patience, etc."
Jesus also pointed out that even if men couldn't quote the laws of God but
their actions were righteous, i.e. love, grace, mercy, etc., that it was
accounted to them for righteousness. Why? How could this be if they didn't go
to church and study? Because God himself wrote these laws upon all men's hearts
to do them.
My anger burned as well as everyone else's at the indignation of what was
perpetrated not only on American citizens, but really on The World Trade
Center, which by it's very name is prophetic, representing many nationalities
from around the world, and as the news pointed out, "a way of life."
Now, as people rally together, notice how the media shapes and influences
people's opinions about what is acceptable and what isn't. I am not making a
judgment on whether or not we should bomb them and leave a bunch of craters
overseas, but rather, as a prophet and spiritual leader, I have my eyes opened
to the times.
Apparently, Rev. Jerry Falwell said on the 700 Club that, "God was
lifting His hand of protection upon this nation." I felt the timing of
that might have been a bit inappropriate as many were returning to church
seeking God. I didn't personally feel led to slam them in the face now that this
tragedy had opened many hearts and they were actually seeking a loving and
forgiving God. That is why we must be led of the Spirit of God and not the
spirit of condemnation that walks hand-in-hand with scriptures and is so
prevalently perceived about the church.
Many times we get saved into a spirit of "Condemnation." If we are
not delivered of that spirit, then we will impart it to others, not even
realizing what we are doing. The idea is to get each person opened up to God's
mercy and to receive the Holy Spirit (it is the first miracle Jesus pointed out
to do)! The tragedy already got them to turn and seek His face. Jesus said, you
forgot the weightier things like grace and mercy.
A spirit of religion is always quick to condemn and point the finger. Yet,
Jesus said, if you don't believe my words, you won't escape the condemnation
that comes from Hell. He also said, you search the whole world over and teach
them and make them more a son of condemnation than yourselves. So perhaps we
need to be just a bit more sensitive to the Holy Spirit and people's needs and
not be so caught up in saying, "See, I have been warning you for years.
Why didn't you listen?"
Instead, we need to bring healing and grace as, after all, we are God's
ambassadors. Remember the prophet Jonah? Boy! He went through literal hell and
like a man, when the people repented, he got angry. Boy, God, after all I went
through, the least you could do is blow them up or something!
Perhaps by using a more widely acceptable term, the same idea could have
been expressed without looking like the condemnation church so many left in the
first place.
Consider this, most people in the world accept the term "Karma"
and yet most Christians never even bother to notice that this expression is
covered in the Bible. "God is not mocked, what you sow you reap" and
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
Too often we turn off people truly trying to understand God and His kingdom,
by our Christian vernacular. The idea here is to speak a language people,
unfamiliar with God, can appreciate and understand. Paul said to "Be all
things to all men." Perhaps people would have received the idea that when
you sow death and values that break down the moral fiber and family values
(abortions, sodomy, rebellion, pride, self-righteousness) you will reap that
"Karma" i.e. death and destruction of moral values and families.
Speaking of pride and self-righteousness, during one of the tapings of
"A Prophet's Reward," God spoke to me and said, "Do you want to
know why there are so many divorces in the Body of Christ?" O.K., I asked,
why? "Because my people called by my name and anointed of Me are speaking
division against each other and other denominations and people within the Body
of Christ, gossiping about other people's relationships", etc. "Touch
not my anointed and do My Prophets no harm." Our Karma is coming upon us,
my brethren, according to God, that is.
We are supposed to be the agents taught and led by the Holy Spirit designed
to bring healing and unity, teaching people about God's Kingdom, remember?
Perhaps by living it and being an example instead of gossiping about someone's
husband or relationship and stirring up strife, perhaps we should consider
"Getting a Life" and stop minding everyone else's.
Which sin is worse, lying, sodomy, fornication, abortion or gossip? You are
right, they are all sin! Perhaps we shouldn't be so quick to kill with the
sword. "He who kills with the sword will in like manner be killed"
according to the book of the Revelations of Jesus Christ. But enough of my
accountability and responsibility. Their sin produced this, right? Even as we
drive them away from the presence of God with our religious
services......hmm?
Anyway, that is not really what God has put on my heart, but rather what
that comment stirred among the television personalities or talking heads of the
programming medium. I heard comments regarding what Jerry Falwell said likened
to "Radical religious groups like the terrorists" and "words are
so powerful" as if to ban them.
As I said earlier, with new wire tapping laws on the horizon and the federal
government girding up to closely screen all our citizens, it is very important
that a "right" spirit be presented throughout the media. Otherwise,
in the future these new laws and heavy government control currently designed to
protect its' citizens, under a wrong spirit could
become very oppressive to the individual citizen or religious group. Religion
is under very close scrutiny right now.
The most powerful tool the devil has is the media! Make no mistake.
People who ignorantly open doors by crossing a line God tells us not to
cross, receive evil spirits or attitudes into themselves. Unfortunately, people
have no clue that their personality has just been added to, and instead feel
that this is a new way of thinking. This is how the demons attempt to rule and
hide from a Holy God.
Keep in mind, Paul said our war is not to hurt people or even in the natural
realm, but rather our war is in the spiritual realm against powers and
principalities that cause people groups to sin and believe corrupt things.
Thus, abominations are created in the natural realm that, of course, have a
significant impact upon us all.
If we do not get behind Christian producers, broadcasters and celebrities in
the secular arena, if we do not become those support systems, if we do not
conquer the Key media cities with a "spirit" of accountability, if we
do not talk a language people can receive and understand and thus usher in the
Presence of the Lord and the acceptable time of the Lord to each of these key
lives, a very wrong spirit and a bad perception of a Holy God will continue to
go throughout the world via our local media, picking up and gaining even more
popularity. Jesus didn't "Hook" the woman caught in adultery by quoting
scriptures and judging her. Instead, He got her attention by forgiving her and
helping her understand that the choices she was making in her life were not
only hurting other people, but that if she continued she would never find the
love and fulfillment God intends in her life.
God gives us spiritual weapons, wisdom, understanding and an anointing to
bring revival to these key territories. "The Goodness of God leads men to
repentance," not the condemnation of the preacher. Then after the
MANIFESTATION of the supernatural miracle, Peter fell on his knees and said,
'depart from me Lord, I am a sinful man'.
More than ever it is vitally important that you help D.P.M. conquer and hold
this key city known as Hollywood. Send your best gift and please, consider
becoming a partner with us.
We have an outstanding record for assaulting spiritual attitudes over cities
and over men conquering them, first in the spirit realm as Jesus did and
taught, and as Paul did and taught, and as the Bible is set up to teach, for
those who have ears to hear and eyes to see.
