Gateways

Hi Beloved!   This is a quick post with a shout out to Ian Clayton.   I got his book, "Realms of the Kingdom" over a year ago and went through some of it.   Second time reading it I started working on my gateways.   The biggest breakthrough was in my taste gate.   Since cleansing that gateway and asking for the Glory of God to touch it and clean it up I've noticed a dramatic decrease in food cravings.  Hallelujah!  

So if you're struggling with your weight or dieting and even the Ketogenic diet isn't helping,   try cleansing your gateways!  It really does work.

Blessings and hugs,

Patricia King and the Seer Gift!

Hi There... I took Patricia's course, "The Glory Realm" back in 2000  and it was such a help in opening my eyes to believe that there was another realm.

Here is a good episode from her show where she interviews James Goll-- another great seer.

Best Exercises for Learning How to See in the Kingdom

Hi.  I just listened to a Youtube video by Mike Parsons and it was so helpful!  I wish I had had this video 15 years ago when I first started  trying to learn how to see in the Kingdom realm.

I'm going to share it here for all of you.   He makes it really easy to follow and he even has mentoring groups  on Google that you can join if you are interested.   He's got the proof!  He's taken his whole church up into the courts and talk about the testimonies!!!  I'm in awe.

It's called , "Exercises - How To Enter The Spirit Realm and Interact with God"

Scrolls

Hi there.   I have had several people ask me about their personal scrolls and how to read them. As far as I know there is no quick answer to that.

Desire is the key to all Heavenly/Kingdom encounters.  So I am determined to stay hungry and to make a difference in any way I can.   The Lord told me that mobilizing his angelic armies was a big help to Him... so I desire to see His angels busy...

I once asked about reading my scroll and the Lord said that as I prayed the Lords prayer (Your will be done and your Kingdom come) over my self and offered myself a living sacrifice (with no agenda) to him, that I was doing what was on my scroll. Hallelujah!

See the Lord knows what's on each of our scrolls and if you knew ahead of time there's a good chance it would freak you out and you would run the other way.  I know I've been freaked out by some of the visions I've had of the future.   As we pursue him and surrender our gates; mind, will, emotions, desires, past, present, future etc... we are pliable and His will and his plans are accomplished in our lives.

So I trust Him.  He's promised to work all things together to my good and His word says that He has exalted his word above his name. Plus He's said that no eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived the things that God has planned for us.  That's good enough for me.

I just step in and ask what He would like to do today.  He knows if my heart needs healing.  He knows what's coming down the pipe and how to prepare me for greater victories.  He's trustworthy!

So have fun stepping in by faith... Ask the Lord to help you get rid of any hindrances to walking by faith in the Spirit. I pray for joy in your journey with Him.

P.S. Ian Clayton has some great teaching on dividing your soul and spirit and cleansing your gates.  His website is www.sonofthunder.org 

Be blessed!

Crying out, "Jesus!"

I love it.   There have been many times during my christian life when I called out, "Jesus!" and amazing things happened.  I knew calling his name did something but now I know more  and it's pretty amazing!

You see.... we activate the Courts of Heaven when we call out, "Jesus!" I know but I know this is true because I've seen it and others have too.  Our earthly court rooms are copies of what God has created in Heaven and  when you call on His name you are there (in the spirit).  There is no time delay.

Jesus, our advocate and some other testifiers are on our left.  The Father is sitting at his judges seat/throne and satan the accuser appears to the right (or the devils that have been attacking you) (ref. Zech. 3:1-5)

I haven't had to do much at all...  The Lord Jesus and the witnesses have presented my case and I've seen the angels lunge to beat up the evil spirits that were harassing me.  It's so amazing!!! We are more than conquerors!

All those years I called out and I knew stuff was happening but I wasn't quite sure what.   I'm so glad for Ian Clayton, Mike Parsons and other men like them that are teaching us how to live and breath the Kingdom of God.

God wants all of us to experience his Kingdom....  not just a select few.  All of us have eyes and ears that were meant to see in the Kingdom.  It's as close as your hand.(Mark 1:15, Matt. 10:7)  We are seated with him in Heavenly places already. (Eph. 2:6)

"God wishes that we might prosper and be in health, even as our souls prosper", therefore believe you receive all his good and perfect gifts,  receive your kingdom sight and hearing and walk by faith.  (3John 2). Come boldly to the throne of grace and receive your clean new garments like the high priest Joshua did in the old testament.(Heb. 4:16, Zech. 3:1-5)  If he can..... then so can you and I.

I have enjoyed the courtrooms so much more, now that I know more about what is happening....

If you want to experience God's Kingdom then please agree with me in prayer:

"Lord we desire to know you more, to see you more, to hear you more and to experience your Kingdom more.  Thank you so much for shedding your blood for us and making us righteous before you.  We receive eyes to see your kingdom,  ears to hear your voice and  a passionate desire to know
you more.  Thank You for more visions and dreams and for showing us how to go back to the vision and dreams we have had to ask for more details.  We give you all the glory for what you are going to do in and through us. Amen!"

Make sure you write about what you see or dream!  Your notes become a doorway of entry so you can go back again and again!

Bless you so much!

Values

I have heard a lot of stuff in my fifty years and I have seen a lot of stuff go wrong in relationships.

I have seen seemingly good relationships fall apart for the most minimal reasons that became mountains somehow.

Because I value relationships above money I have watched and learned a few things to protect relationships.  Here's one big tip...

When you go on a trip or a joint venture with someone before the end of it always ask if the money obligations are satisfied.  You do not want them walking away feeling used or shortchanged.   My friend was really good about that and I so appreciated her bringing up that sensitive topic.

You see, I made the mistake of going on a holiday with someone and wrongly assumed that they would bring money to cover their share of the motel, food, gas and some spending money.  What a shock when I found out that she didn't bring a cent!  Spent her money before the trip no less!

So now I know to communicate more, rather than less.   This can be very difficult especially if the other person is 'too busy' for you.... but you have to try.

When a friend was planning on going on a 3 week holiday with two of her  friends I suggested that she discuss in advance what the itinerary was going to be, how many events they wanted to take in, who was going to drive and how the expenses were going to be paid for.   After the trip my friend phoned and thanked me many times for that piece of advice because the trip was great, there were no headaches and their friendships were still intact.

You see,  some people have the idea that Christianity doesn't affect their spending habits  They are Christians, all right-- they just haven't gotten a revelation about kingdom priorities.

In the Kingdom of God we are warned not to cause  any of God's little ones to stumble.  God values you and I --not money.

If you are on the receiving end of some financial abuse... take heart!  God hears your cry and he will pay you back.

That's not to excuse the other person's behavior.   They will end up having to retake the test another time.  Your priority is to keep your heart clean before the Lord.  That's a big enough assignment!

I hope this tip saves you some grief.  I am still learning of course and I welcome your feed back.

Have a great day with HIM!

It's HOT in Revival!

You would think we were in the fires of Revival, the way the warfare intensifies before the Friday night healing service!

So many thought attacks going something like this:

1.  You're too tired to go to the service

2.  You have better things to do.

3.  No one appreciates all you do.

4.  No one is going to miss you if you don't go.

5.  People are just using you.

6.  What's the point anyhow?

7.  Heaviness, despondency, broken promises, etc., etc., etc.,

The List goes on and on.

We have to be sharp to catch these little thoughts before they can derail God's purposes in our lives.

 Here are some confessions that  have worked for me.

Re: 1. Thank You Jesus that you arm me with your strength and power and you make my way perfect. Thank you Lord Jesus that Your strength is made perfect in my weakness. (2Sam. 22:33, 2Cor. 12:9)

Re: 2.   Thank You Lord that you are ordering my steps today because I love your word. (Ps.119:133)  Thank you Lord that You go before me and prepare the way for me.  Thank You Lord that I determine to walk in the spirit and not my flesh.  I command my mind, will and emotions to line up with the word of God. (ref. Rom 8:11-12)  I seek those things that are above and not below.  I determine to press on in Jesus' name. (ref.Col. 3:1-2, Phil.3:12)

Re: 3  Thank you Lord that YOU reward your people who work in the ministry and in your word. (Is. 40:10, Prov. 13:13) Thank You Lord for meeting every need so that I can give on every occasion and have a surplus left over. (2Cor. 9:11) I sow my volunteer work as seed into your kingdom and I expect to reap 100 fold return now, in Jesus' name. (ref. Gen. 8:22)

Re: 4.   Thank You Lord that I am a part of the army of Christ and that I am important to you.  Thank You Lord that as I worship and praise you I am opening a portal of glory and all the people around me will be impacted by it. Let your Kingdom come and your will be done today in my life.

Re: 5. Thank You Lord that I do my work as unto the Lord and not to man.  Lord, I thank you for leading me and guiding me by your spirit.  Thank You for Balance in my life, Lord.  Help me to always look after my own personal walk with you so that I don't burn out. (ref. Song 1:6b)  Thank You Lord that I WILL be faithful, I will be found faithful in all your house. (Prov. 20:6, 28:20) I refuse to be downcast or disturbed because I know that I can praise you! (Ps. 42:5,11)

Re:6.  The Bible promises that we are changed from glory to glory in his presence.  (ref. 2Cor. 3:18) If all you can do is drive to church and crawl to the front  and stand or lay in His presence as others worship-- do it! The testimonies every week are proof enough! I determine to recount all the miracles and testimonies I've seen already and I determine to stretch my faith to believe for greater miracles and different types of miracles.  I decree that no one goes home the same in Jesus' name!  

Re: 7.  Thank You Lord for showing me what's going on in the spirit realm.  Thank you Lord for these words of knowledge and I decree that Your will is being done today, that lots of people are doing to come and help us bring in the harvest, look after all the babies and raise up disciples.

Thank you Lord for rewarding the volunteers and for leading and guiding us today. Thank you for greater fruitfulness in Your vineyard. Thank You for harvest angels, revival angels and all your other angels that are helping us.  Thank You Lord for sending out more (prepared) laborers into the harvest fields.  Thank you for strengthening us with your might from on High.  Thank you Lord for encouraging us every day. Amen! 

I hope this helps you.   Yes, we are in the hot fires of Revival-- and there's no place I'd rather be!!

In this Revival there are no 'Lone Rangers' anymore.  When we get under attack it's important to fight back right away with the right words so we can stay free and help others stay free.  Good friends that you can pray with are a must!

Food for thought.....  What areas do you get attacked in on Fridays?  Can you use one of the answers I've listed to help you through it?

Bless you, in Jesus' Name!

A Kindhearted Woman...

The Bible says that, "A kindhearted woman gains respect, but ruthless men gain only wealth." (Prov. 11:16)  If I understand this correctly respect is to be more desired than wealth and it's far better to be kindhearted than to be ruthless.

Boy we need to hear this.  It's too easy to lay aside kindness when our own pursuits suffer.  It's not the easiest thing to lay down our wants, our needs when others are acting selfishly.  From what I have been hearing the home is the final stronghold of carnality.  We can be so nice when we are out in the public eye and then act completely different at home.
. 
If you are having to live through situations where others are acting selfishly, take heart.  God is able to keep your reputation. He knows how many times you have been slurred or disrespected by those who say they love you and He will repay you.... if you allow him to.

He is our source.... no one else. My day does not depend on my husband appreciating me, although it's nice when he does.  Also,  My good humor should not depend on what's happening with the kids.  You know what I mean?  It's easy to say, but boy it takes some discipline to live like this consistently.

I can only say that those things that I used to esteem I now count as rubbish, and that includes my own so-called rights. (ref. Phil. 3:7)

"I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, and so, somehow, to attain to the resurrection from the dead. Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me." (Phil. 3:10-12)

That's the key.  We keep pressing on. We choose to pick up our cross instead of picking up offense.  We let the Lord keep us and when the angry feelings come because we feel used we take them to the Lord. He'll sort them all out.  

Ultimately, he is our hope and our source.  We need to learn to go to him with stuff instead of looking for the first person to vent on. LOl.

Let's Pray:  "Lord help us look to you for everything so that we can be free from people.  Help us to deny ourselves and pick up our crosses and follow you.... at any cost.  Let our lives have an impact for your kingdom and may we always bless your heart in the way we treat others. Amen!"

Bless you!

Just try...

Holy Spirit keeps telling me, "Just try."  It goes along with, "trust me,"  one of those really tough things to do outside of your comfort zone.  I keep hearing the Lord say, "You can do it!" Hmmmm, that's something to think about.

I am getting better at trusting the Lord although I still fall flat on my face once in a while.  I don't know if that will ever change, lol.

Yesterday a bunch of us were at a restaurant for supper and I said, "Let's pray for a word for the waitress."  I started praying and all I got was 'traveling'.  It wasn't really much to go on but I thought okay I will ask her if that means anything to her.

The next time she came around I asked her if the word 'traveling' meant anything to her because when I asked the Lord about her that's what I got.  She was excited and said, "Yes, I have always wanted to go traveling, though I don't know how I'm going to go." 

I encouraged her with what I felt the Lord was saying and prayed for a good traveling companion for her.  She left and the restaurant got really busy and I never got the chance to resume our conversation.

That used to bother me until I surrendered my personal opinions about what should and should not happen during an encounter.  Somebody once told me that I wasted my time because I didn't get the waitress saved.  I disagree.  I am supposed to obey.  The Bible says, that some plant, some water, some harvest. Who am I to disagree with God?

I left a great Gospel tract with my generous tip. This waitress now knows that God cares about her and is interested in her personally and my million dollar bill with the gospel message will get read when she is ready to read it.  I just know it.  I have seen this happen again and again.

The most important thing is to try.  Holy Spirit will show himself strong on your behalf.... just like he does for me.

I will be a fool for him everyday if it means he is using me!  I don't care what people think or say! Do you hear me?  I realized that I would never step outside of my comfort zone until I got to the place where I wanted to please Jesus more than I wanted to keep my reputation!

Here are some helpful confessions that I use to get to that place everyday.

Thank You Jesus that I love you more than anything.
Thank You Jesus that the fear of God is pure and clean enduring forever. (ref. Psalm 19:9)
Thank You Lord for setting me free from the fear of man which is a snare and a trap. (ref. Prov. 29:25)
Thank You Lord that I don't love my life or reputation more than you. (ref. Rev. 12:6)
Thank You Lord for helping me to step outside of my comfort zone.
Thank You Lord for helping me to seize the moments to bring your Kingdom down to earth.
Thank You Lord for giving me encouraging words for all the people I meet today.
Thank You Lord for showing me who to talk to today about You.
Thank You Lord that Your Spirit is mighty in prophesy and Your Spirit is flowing mightily through me.
Thank You Lord that your thoughts for us are uncountable.  Thank You for giving me one of those thoughts for each person I think about and show me what to speak or do with it. (ref. Psalm 139:17-18)

I Bless you richly.  May you have courage and great boldness to just 'try' to take God at his word today.  He's forever faithful/true because he cannot deny himself. Amen!

Big hugs,
Brenda Gale Thompson

Reality Bites

Reality bites for today.
We are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. (2Cor. 5:21)
Our old nature is dead. Rom. 6,7
Wherever there is great love, there are great miracles.
We are seated with him in Heavenly places. (Eph. 2:6)
We have been blessed with every spiritual blessing in Christ Jesus, the anointed one and His anointing. (ref. Eph 1:3)
The anointing we have received abides in us and will never leave. (1John 2:21-27)

For too long people have been trying to visit Heaven, or have a supernatural experience. That is like trying to get into a chair you are already seated in. Talk about a frustrating time. The  reality is that we are already sitting in it! (ref. Eph. 2:6)

God inhabits the praises of His people.  Therefore as I make the choice to make praise and thanksgiving a habit during my day the manifest presence of God which is Heaven starts to show up right here.

Repent for anything that might have caused you to sin and fall short of the glory of God. Plead the blood of Jesus and His glory will cover you again.

Did you get that?  That's why God doesn't want us to sin.  It causes us to fall short of the glory of God.  He wants us in the glory.  He's not trying to keep us out! He wants us to learn how to walk in the glory while we are doing our thing here on earth.   We've prayed it so long, "Your kingdom (glory) come, Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

There is no time in the Glory.  When God shows you something it's yours.  Don't put off receiving it by saying, "One day I'll be Your  minister" for example.   Claim it now.

One time I saw a big treasure chest on a beach and I heard the Lord tell me to go open it.  I opened it and there were gifts in it for me.  So I started thanking God for my gift that I would receive.  Wrong!  Better to thank Him for the gifts He has given you now.   There is no time in the glory so don't put off receiving anything Holy Spirit shows you.  It might take you a while to get the revelation of who you are in the Spirit realm,  so start now.

We have been made righteous.  It's not about doing all the stuff to get clean.  No where does the sacrifice have to clean itself before it can be used!  That's the bosses job!  In the same way when we offer ourselves as a living sacrifice to the Lord it's his job to clean us up! (Ref. Rom. 12:1-2)

In Zech. 3: 1-7 we see that Joshua the high priest got a new garment as soon as he showed up.  We do too as soon as we enter his presence with our praise and worship.  Just receive it by faith!

Bless you as you start to walk by faith, believing that Your Heavenly Father wants supernatural experiences for you.  He's no respector of persons.  So put on the worship music and praise and thank Him for a while. Repent as He leads to restore your fellowship with Him and then ask Him what He wants to show you.  Close Your eyes and see what He shows you in your imagination.  Enjoy! You know by faith that if you ask for bread, your Heavenly father will not give you a fish.  He is forever faithful!

You are blessed and highly favored!

Big hugs,
Brenda Gale Thompson

No Time To Argue

I quoted Joshua Mills on my Face Book page and I looked today and a Christian decided to argue with me.

Sigh... I don't have time to argue!  I'm too busy listening to teaching on my ipod or doing the stuff, whether it be handing out a tract, putting tracts on car windshields, praying for sick people at work and at the grocery store, or speaking an encouraging word to someone on the street.

I wish people would get off their band wagons about correctness and just do the kingdom stuff.  There's precious little time!  I do not want to get involved in a argument about semantics because there are people dying out there without Jesus and I know that it takes about eight witnesses for someone to get saved.

The quote was, "God only has as much control as you will give Him." --Joshua Mills and Joshua was talking about letting God be Lord (boss) in our lives. 

This guy responded, ‎"God also testifying with them, both by signs and wonders and by various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit ACCORDING TO HIS OWN WILL."  This is also true but only after we are obedient.   It goes back to my point. God only has as much control as you will give Him.
It's all about surrendering our will, ie. "Your will be done, Your kingdom come, not mine.

So that's my rant today.

On a good note, I was walking  across the Metro parking lot today to get a few groceries and I had some tracts in my hand that I was distributing.  A fellow had some pizzas and stuff on the trunk of a car while he was talking to another man.  I put a million dollar bill tract on his pizzas as I walked by and said, "Here's a good laugh."   He picked it up and started reading it.  Praise the Lord!

And you know, God will use it to minister to him.  He might have a Mom, girlfriend or co-worker  that has been praying for him to get saved.

So if you see me singing away as I am in the store, you'll know why.  I helped my King with some of the things that matter to Him and there's no joy like His.

 Let me pray for you now.   I Bless you today.  Lord you know what's going on in my friend's heart better than I do.  Help them to fulfill the call You have on their lives.  Give them that revelation that will put them in Your perfect will. Amen.

How Many Angels?

Many years ago when I was learning about Angels and our roles in the Kingdom of God I heard that they were sent to protect us (Psalm 91) and that they listen for the word of God coming out of us for some of their marching orders.(Psalm 103:20)

I was very intrigued by this and a few days later I asked the Lord if I was keeping my Angels busy. He said, "No." Well, I wanted to learn how so I asked the Lord to teach me.

A few weeks later I asked the Lord if I was keeping my Angels busy and He said, "Yes." I was happy initially but then I sensed a longing in Holy Spirit so I asked Him, "what's Up?"
I felt that He wanted more angels busy so I asked him to show me how to pray so more Angels would be busy.

A lot of it involved praying for people as I would see them, hear of them or talk to them on the phone. As I asked for God's kingdom to come and His will to be done etc. in their lives, more Angels got busy.

Many day's later, I was praying for all the guys in my Engineering class and I asked the Lord, "How many angels can I have?"

You know what He said? He said conversationally, "As many as you will keep busy."

I was stunned by the possibilities.

Since that day, many years ago, I have had great satisfaction keeping Angels busy, and as a result, I have seen many testimonies that keep my faith stoked. We do serve an awesome God and we are co-laborers with Him!

Lord I ask that you would make your word real to the person reading this. Show them how to cooperate with You and bring Your Kingdom and Your will on Earth. Thank you Lord for your Heavenly helpers, Angels and for showing us how to help You in the Great Commission too. Thanks Lord that we all have Your joy in our day to day walk with You. Amen.
