Table At The Mall

Well that's it.  A psychic set up her table at the mall and something has to be done about it.  This is God's town and  I can't stand idly by.

I got permission to set up a table for free once upon a time when I went and gave words of knowledge and prophesies to whoever wanted them. See  www.greatcommissionhow2s.blogspot.com/2010/07/physchic-fair-came-to-town-written-in.html  for a post about that weekend.

This time I am a little more experienced and hopefully a little more organized!  I was able to secure a table for free.  One church was glad to loan me a rectangular table cloth to cover it.  A friend from another church gave me some ideas on how to decorate the table.  A fellow at the mall printed off some high quality 8.5 x 11 posters to place in stands on the table.

I put some big poster sized signs on either end of the table advertising "Free Spiritual Readings, Thursday and Friday evening and Saturday"

My girlfriend who works at the mall will keep an eye on our table since I can't man it full time.

I just want to give people an opportunity to save their money.  I have seen people spend anywhere from $40- $100 plus for a detailed reading.   Most of these people don't realize that you can get a prophetic word from some of the charismatic churches for free.

It's time for the Kingdom of God to advance.  It's time to get the good news out, that we serve a Living God who's available all the time!   It makes me sick thinking that these people are going to hear from the other side when the Living God is all around us and in those that have made Jesus their Savior and Lord.

I have put the word out to all my prophetic friends and those who do prayer ministry to come out and be a part of this.  I am very excited.   The Lord has never disappointed me.

I would love to have our Sunday school class out on one of these days, just to practice.  Wouldn't that turn some heads to see 11 year olds giving words of knowledge and prophesy to strangers.  Lord make a way!

I bless you in Jesus' name.  May you have courage to step out of your comfort zone and make a difference for God's Kingdom today. Amen!

New Song Impact

I was reading my old journals tonight and I came across some notes I had made about new songs from Ray Hughes.  You see, I got some dvd's on a course he taught, called "The Sound of Breakthrough"  and he shared about music and song -- his passion.

Ray's statement, "that we become what our song is or our song becomes us" got me thinking.  I wish I had been in the class to ask him some questions. I have songs to grow in character traits, I have songs that are to heal the past, I have prophetic songs that I sing over areas and people.  I also have songs of worship and praise and adoration, I have songs of war and triumph... so I really don’t know if I have any particular song.  All of these songs are mine in one respect, gifts from the Lord.  Some of them have brought such healing to my heart, and many of these songs have helped me change the way I think about God.

It has happened that I get a song as I read a page in a book or see a scripture verse. Sometimes  I hear someone preach and come away with a song about it... that is a part of who I am in the Lord.

For the last couple of years Holy Spirit has been having me sing the song of the Lord during the worship times at church. Usually it’s a harmony to the song the congregation is singing and it’s what God wants said or declared over the congregation. I haven’t been on the worship team for years, so I have freedom to sing and not interrupt the service. 

Ray’s words about how the song changes and rearranges the Heavens and the earth really blessed me.  It is confirmation that I am moving mountains as I sing and declare God’s heart.  The Lord even gave me a little chorus about moving mountains.  Hallelujah!

I highly recommend Ray's teaching.  I got so much encouragement about my little songs.  You know he has an exercise to get you started singing a new song.  Every morning you write down as many attributes of God as you can think of. Then you pick three of them and sing them to God in any melody you choose.  It's a quick way to open the Heavens over you and your life.  Have fun! I declare that Holy Spirit is helping you to sing a new song to the Lord today!

Let me bless you now. "Lord, the anointing I've received to sing the song of the Lord I give to them.  Let them sing songs that will bless Your heart too. Amen!"

P.S.   'New Song' occurs 9 times in the KJV.  Psalm 33:3. 40:3, 96:1, 98:1, 144:9, 149:1, Isaiah 42:10, Rev. 5:9, 14:3.

You Can't Always Win With Another Man's Sword

The only sword that is going to work for you 100% of the time is the sword you carry.   In the same way you can't stand 100% of the time as a Christian unless you have a revelation of God's promises that pertain to your situation.

The good news is  that you can sharpen your sword anytime you want.  The word is always available. As you start to personalize it and apply it to your situation, revelation will come and then you won't put up with anything less then victory.

As you use your sword and realize that God won't put you in a battle you can't win, you will get the chance to win battles for others that don't know the Lord or don't know the word of God. (2Cor. 2:14)

I'm going to share the revelation the Lord gave me years ago.  Sometimes the Lord gives you a word or a chapter that He wants you to dig into.  Well this time it was Psalm 29.

"Ascribe to the Lord, O mighty  ones, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness."  (Psalm 29:1-2) That's our job.  As we choose to speak out loud all the thanks and praise God deserves he inhabits our praise.  This is the prerequisite for the rest of the psalm. Are you interested?

Verse 3 was highlighted to me. It goes, "The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of Glory thunders over the mighty waters."....

As I started to ruminate over this verse and ask Holy Spirit questions  I realized that He wanted me to start declaring this. We are the ones speaking  for the Lord as we offer ourselves living sacrifices and obey Holy Spirit's prompting. (Ps. 103:20, Rom 12:1-2, 2Cor. 4:13)

This is how the Lord told me to personalize  this Psalm.
The voice of the Lord though me is over the waters; the God of glory thunders through me, the Lord  thunders over the mighty waters through me.
The voice of the Lord through me, is powerful; the voice of the Lord through me is majestic... etc.

You get the point.  God wants us to get stronger in Him. Reading Colossians,  chapters 1 and 2 are really helpful.  Holy Spirit, the anointed one and His anointing is in us. (Col 1:26)  Also, the anointing we have received abides in us. (1John 2: 21,27)  We have been given all authority and power, (Luke 18:19) and the victory that Jesus won He wants us to enforce. He is waiting till we make all His enemies His footstool. (Heb. 10:13)   He bet the devil so bad, he (Jesus) led them in a triumphant procession and He's given His victory to us. (Col 2:13-15, Acts 2:8, 1John 4:17)  He is the first born of many brothers/sisters. (Rom 8:29)

Therefore I exhort you to sharpen your sword.  There is so much more that I want to share about this Psalm... all for other day.

Let me bless you: Lord give us a hunger for You and Your word.  Show us how to apply the promises to our lives and get so good at using our sword that we can set other people free too.   We won't despise the day of small beginnings.  We give you all the glory in advance. Amen!
