IT'S TIME TO SPEAK UP OR LOSE YOUR PLACE IN THE LINE
In my background, a person who would not speak up for themselves would be called a "mealy mouth." I'm not sure if that's a real word, but everyone knew what it meant. From the kid on the playground to the fearful housewife, their life became a living hell because they didn't speak up.
Our current culture has a term that says, "see something, say something." I think that pretty well frames the thought God dropped in my heart to speak of today. It's time for us to cry out to the Lord and the society around us.
During the years that Hitler's Germany prepared for the second world war was a slow erosion of social norms and private liberties. A Pastor named Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who eventually gave his life in resistance against the Nazi party and Hitler's oppression, made this statement famous.
Speaking for the church, he said, "when they came for the Jews, we said nothing; when they came for the gypsies, we said nothing. Then when they came for us, there was no one to help."
We have lived in a bubble of self-denial that it could ever happen to us. But today, we face the same challenges by the voices that have risen around us demanding that we say what they want us to say and agree with what they believe in.
A law in the Old Testament said if a woman was raped and did not cry out, she became guilty of the same sin. I can only imagine why they wouldn't cry out; the fear of retribution or shame, all those things would be at play.
Today they are calling us names, trying to intimidate and bring shame.
We still have a voice that goes directly to the Father; it's time for us to cry out.
We still have the ability to speak up; when we see something to say something.
I guarantee that cowards will always back up and run if you resist them.

THOUGHTS BETRAY SOURCE; SPIRIT LIFE ATTRACTS SPIRIT THOUGHTS
Take a look around you for a moment. Everything you see close at hand and far away started in somebody's thoughts. From the simplest toy your child may play with to the most complicated technology of our day, someone had a thought.
The jails are filled with men and women because they had thoughts that lead them into crimes. And so it is with our spiritual leaders in all their positions of leadership, and they are there because they had a "God" thought.
The scriptures tell us there are some things we should not waste our thoughts on, such as the provisions our heavenly father promised us. He has already promised them, so don't be frustrated thinking about a plan to get them. Matthew 6:25, then, on the other hand, there are thoughts that we need to take hold of and cast down. We are to bring every thought under Christ to the obedience of his word. ( Second Corinthians 10:5)
You and I are to meditate upon the word day and night. That sounds like an impossibility. Yet Paul told us to pray continually. How is that possible? It's possible because not all our thoughts and prayers come out of our conscious awareness but rather out of our spirit, man.
Remember that our father has made us a spirit just like himself and has given us a soul and body to dwell in. The thoughts that bring life come out of our spirit, not our head or mind. I'm convinced that is where idle words come from out of the empty minds of men when we meditate upon God's word and fellowship him in the spirit that is direct food for the spirit man.
Put a guard on your mind and watch your words change. When your words change, the direction of your life will be altered, and you will see the fulfillment of God's purposes in your life.

WHY PROGRESSIVE REVELATION?
Did you know that no scriptures in the Old Testament describe that the promised Messiah would die and rise from the dead? Oh, I know plenty of New Testament writers reflect on scriptures adding their revelation to them. But the Old Testament saints did not know that.
WHY?
Because God used a mixture of missed direction and progressive revelation to bring about total victory at the right time, do you see where first Corinthians 2:6 Paul tells us that if the rulers of this world, both natural and spiritual, had known this, they never would have killed the son of God?
So we see that God hides certain things until the season is right to reveal them.
Look at Luke 24:44. Jesus joined his disciples after the resurrection and opened their understanding of his death and resurrection. As Israelites, they were not taught this, so they have no revelation as yet.
Because the scriptures tell us that it is line upon line, here a little and there a little, that is how revelation comes, and when it does, we must be careful and sensitive to be obedient to what we have received.
The scripture says if you are obedient, you will eat the good of the land. And if you're disobedient, you will dwell in a dry country. The continuing unfolding of the mysteries of God that we call revelation has everything to do with our obedience to what we know now.
The word of God tells us that if we walk in the light as he is in the light, we will have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Christ will cleanse our sins.
So join me today as we rejoice in what we know. Revel in your knowledge and understanding in Jesus Christ because it is your foundation for unveiling tomorrow's mysteries.

THE REALITY OF LIVING AS A SPIRIT BEING
If there is a phrase that captures the American society and that of the political west is the phrase "living life in the fast lane." Most of us have learned to hit the ground running when we wake in the morning, and we keep that pace until we fall into bed at night. Even those of us who have met Christ and know that we are different people have a difficult time losing the culture we live in.
So when the preacher tells us we are new creatures in Christ, often we say yeah, that sounds good, but I've got to pay for the bills and send the kids to College. So our nose is still at the grindstone, and we have little time to think about who we really are in Christ Jesus.
So let me state clearly as I prepare for this video.
You're not human anymore. I know that's a shock; let's face it, you've been born again by the spirit of God. Think it through for a moment; what does that mean to you?
You and I are new creatures in Christ Jesus, and that new creature is a spirit being sent from God. We have a soul and live in a body. That body and soul are our tickets as a spirit been to function on this earth and do the will of the father.
The term sons of God is not just a catchy phrase we put on a banner; it is the reality of what God has performed in us as people.
So after the smoke settles from the realization of this truth, ask God for revelation on who you are and what your purpose is in life.
Don't worry; you still have to pay the rent, raise the kids, and love your wife or husband; that part doesn't change. But you do all of that out of a different source. A Heavenly one.

THE POWER AND PURPOSE OF DOING THIS FIRST
I had a glorious yet short-lived baseball career in my youth. Mr. Dunn from Dunn's grocery sponsored our little league hardball team. It was a summer in the middle of the 1950s when summer seemed to last forever. So I joined the team and began to learn all about baseball.
The first thing I learned is that a whole bunch of rules go along with playing the game. And if you don't keep the rules, everything falls apart. After a while, I finally found my sweet spot in baseball. Seeing that I was small in stature, the coach discovered I was really good at bunting the ball. That's when you barely hit the ball far enough so that Fred can run in from the third base and score a run while you try to make it to first base.
I can't tell you how many times I got creamed out on first base. And of all the things I learned about baseball, they first taught me that if you don't touch first base, nothing else counts. You can run all the way around and come into Homeplate, then hear the umpire shout you're out because you didn't touch first base.
Spiritually speaking, that's the same principle that works in the kingdom of God.
The father has given us so many marvelous and unbelievable things that we can enjoy and live in the midst of. Peace of mind, prosperity of soul and finances, and a happy home. Yeah, none of those things will come to their fullest development unless we touch first base first.
No wonder the scriptures tell us to seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all of these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:33) It's the same principle as the farmer and the seed, and the farmer must first put the seed in the ground before he can expect to harvest.
Today is examination day. Are we putting first things first in our life? Ask the Holy Spirit that question; he's faithful to give you the correct answer.

AWAKEN YOUR DESTINY
Here are some questions that you may ponder as you watch the video today.
Why did god send you to this earth?
Why did he send you at this time in history?
Most people that interact with you will never ask themselves these questions. The current worldview that our society has is very self-centered and focused on the moment. We definitely are in a "me generation" mentality.
According to the popular rhetoric that seems to be the loudest is there are only two types of people.
Number one there is the oppressor.
And of course the second one is the victim.
What you are can change with the social current, somedays it's the rich CEO that runs the corporation. The next day it's becomes the color of your skin or the nation that you're from.
Victims have a wide array of opportunity that they can pick and choose from.
Personally I grew up as a victim.
I was forced to wear jeans with holes in them before it became a fashion item.
I had to wear glasses when people would call you four eyes and laugh at you because of it.
I was also height impaired so I never could pursue my basketball career.
Then to top it off I was a Pentecostal and looked down on by other more refined religious organizations.
So what did I do with my victimhood. I met Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit and he awakened in me my destiny and purpose for being on this earth.
I discovered that he had laid out a course for me to travel on and complete. And he gave me a ministry of reconciliation that I was to be faithful to.
Now I am no longer a victim. Because of Jesus Christ. I am now more than a conqueror because of his love.

JESUS IS NOT AN EXAMPLE FOR US, BUT OF US
The book of Romans is an amazing revelation that God gave to Paul of the gospel of Jesus Christ. Not everyone in the early church accepted Paul as an apostle or his gospel as trustworthy, and the church in Rome was among that group.
So we have the book of Romans that Paul laid out before them, detailing the revelation of the gospel the Spirit gave him. Interestingly enough, he gave this to my woman by the name of Phoebe. She became a spokesperson for Paul as she went through the churches in Rome. As a side note, she was also a lawyer and a woman of renown.
Because of this remarkable book, we have a clear, detailed, yet simple pattern of the purpose, procedure, and fulfillment of why Christ came; and the Family of saints that he birthed.
Romans 8:1-2 has been a linchpin scripture for me since I was a teenager. The revelation of this beautiful passage of scripture has been the foundation I have stood upon my entire journey as a believer in Jesus Christ. Without understanding this vital revelation, my path would've been much different.
I believe Romans 8 is one of the big guns that will knock out the Spirit of religion in a person's life; if you have to build your relationship with God upon works and the things you do to please him, you are doomed to fail.
Thank God we have the revelation in this great verse( Rom 8:1-2) that everything that could be used against us for condemnation has been removed from our history because of Jesus.
So rejoice with me today as we spend some time listening to this revelation God gave Paul out of the book of Romans.

WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT
We call it natural law; some would say the law of nature or common sense. It's just the way life works. For instance, take the law of gravity. Let's try running that through the Supreme Court to see if we can change it. How about the law of seed time and harvest? Let's find some federal judge to change that one.
Try this Jesus parable on for size.
And the farmer went out and decided not to cast his seed on the ground, and when he had no harvest, he sued the city for lack of funding.
Does that sound familiar with the current society were moving through? They have one thing in mind; doing away with God and his natural law.
Our founding fathers said that we were endowed with these natural rights from our Creator. The mind of man thinks they can take their Creator to court and change his laws.
That just doesn't happen, folks.
So let's hold on for a bumpy ride while God our Creator readjusts the focus that this world has back to embracing God's laws already established on earth.
The scriptures tell us that the nations will rage and imagine a vain thing. How about that for a prophetic snapshot of what we're experiencing today? What could describe a generation of arrogant people who think they can change human genetics through willpower?
That just doesn't happen, folks.
Therefore we hold steady, focused on the Lord and not the storms. If you keep your eyes on Jesus, you're guaranteed not to sink beneath the waves.
If you feel yourself sinking, re-focus on Jesus; he'll get you back to the boat.

ALL OF CREATION CHEERS OUR SONSHIP
The subject of the garden of Eden is always an intriguing experience when you begin to see into the revelation of God's purposes. The garden of Eden seemed to be the connection point between heavenly places and earthly places.
Adam and Eve had a direct command from the father to reproduce on the Earth what was in the garden of Eden.
Their command was to bring order back to the Earth, repopulate, and shape its future. In cooperation with their work was all the creation that God had made. It's evident by what Paul says in the eighth chapter of Romans that the creation also suffered demotion when Adam and Eve fell.
Romans 8:21 in the mirror Bible tells us that creation knows they will be released when the sons of God take their place on the Earth. Just think about our effect on creation when you consider that God has restored us to the original call and commission.
In the book of mark 16:15, Christ gives us the same commission that our father gave to Adam and Eve. God commissions this generation of sons and daughters to bring order to this world once again. We are to heal the sick, raise the dead, and have no fear of poison and dangerous animals. We are in control because of God's commission to us.
Sound far-fetched?
Now you're getting the point. We are beyond human; we are sons and daughters of the living God.

THE PURPOSE OF A POWER NAP
I hated naptime as a kid. If you have children, you probably know that's not very unusual. Who wants to lie down in the middle of the day when there's so much to do outside?
My mother was much smarter than me, and I didn't realize how much when I was five. She made a deal with me that she would lie down next to me at nap time, and if she went to sleep first, I could get up and play. I don't ever remember winning that competition.
For some reason, my dad would nap on the living room couch. We always had a hand-crocheted afghan over the back of the couch, and he would pull it over him and take a snooze.
And, of course, everyone took a nap Sunday afternoon because we had to be fresh and bright for Sunday night service.
Our friends South of the border have what they call a siesta. In the more traditional nations, everything shuts down at noon, and the workers go home, have lunch and take a nap before returning to work.
It seems that God was the one who created the first naps. For instance, Adam took a nap, and when he woke, he had a wife named Eve.
Abraham took a nap and had an encounter with God concerning a covenant.
Jacob took a nap and was introduced to the angels ascending and descending from heaven to earth.
Jesus took a nap, and it gave the disciples their first lesson on how to quiet the storm.
Peter also took a nap and was taught of the Lord concerning the gospel going to the Gentiles.
To sum this up, dreams have shaped human history like nothing else. Much of the direction given to our old testament saints came out of naptime.
If I had to guess God's logic in this procedure, I would say it's an excellent way to get us out of the way, so we don't interfere with the directions he's giving us for our journey.
Naptime anyone?
