The Cross & The Crown

 #fastforfamily ~~~Excerpt from post: May 2021 Kim Clement: “The Lord’s just told me that “as you pray I will send back what has been isolated…There has been an isolation of inspiration. But now I will restore inspiration that will raise the dead…I will do unusual miracles…if you would just ask me…for tonight I will begin…with you…and your house!”” I’m sure many people saw different interpretations as to what had been “isolated”…I saw fathers.~~~ (Mal. 4:5-6) But there will not be a full realization and release for these husbands/fathers into their place in God’s order, without we who are wives/mothers recognizing and embracing ours. So what in the Church, does that look like? - “…but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious. For this is how the holy women who hoped in God used to adorn themselves, by submitting to their own husbands, as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord...

  In the final days The Cross of Jesus Christ will be lifted up high above the nations of the earth …so that every nation can see. The Light will shine in the darkness…and the darkness will not overcome it. The people who walk in darkness will see…they will see what they had never seen before…and hear what they had never heard. They will see this Light clearly because of the depth of the darkness that is coming on the earth.   Isaiah 5:20 The Lord is and will, remove the veil…clear away the fog…  He will thoroughly expose darkness for what it is, so His Light can be seen for what it is (Gen 1:4);  He will t horoughly expose evil, for what it is…for a season…a specific time…so that His true Goodness can also be clearly seen…so that humanity can  clearly   choose ; Life or death. Because He is  merciful (2Peter 3:9;  Romans 2:4)  “And many throughout the kingdoms of the Earth will run towards My Life - My Goodness, in this late our. You my...

 This was a race for the soul of humanity…and with each lap, more and more people joined the race and started running…But no longer just gentiles - now it was Jews…I said to the Lord “the vale is truly being lifted…(Read Romans 11:25-26) What does that mean for us?” Then I heard the sound of a bell… the sound that you hear when a runner hits the final lap of a race… And there were many people running…I sensed tension in the heavenly places:  One after another, we entered the final lap - and each time the bell would ring. As a consequence, the bell didn’t stop ringing, but just kept on. And I heard “Last Call!” This is a wake up call for the Gentile Church;  This is the final time around:  I saw nations and people groups I had not seen before… Cultures and tongues I did not know (Matt 24:14)… At the final bell, they entered into The Way, and joined the race with us (Matthew 20:1-16)… And I felt the Lord saying to everyone, “Keep on! Don’t stop:  “For the final la...

 Why do we fast? To get God’s attention…to bend His Arm…to earn His favor…? No: Through the Cross of Jesus Christ, we already have all of this. So why then do we fast? To refine us - For the Lord to teach us that “man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God”…That we would not look to things of this world (what we see,hear, taste, smell, touch) to sustain us, but that we would look to Jesus Christ - who is The Word…our manna from Heaven. (2Cor 4:18; John6:25-58) To refocus us - That our attention would not be on the things of this world to satisfy us…but to the things of God . Because the things of this world are passing away, but the things of God are eternal. (1John2:15-17) To reprogram us - That we would not be controlled by every demand and desire of the flesh, but that we would be controlled by the Spirit, turning to God as our first and only source. (Romans 8:5-11) To humble us - To get our attention back to the Sacrifice of His Son…for His Glory. “And I fed you...

Large crowds came to Him in the desert (the hard place) Matt 14:13-21 But… who was able to come to Him on the water?  (the impossible place) Matt 14:28 For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. (Matt16:25)  

 #FastForFamily A Song of Ascents. Of Solomon. Psalm 127 Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Jeremiah 22:13 Zechariah 4:1-7   Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. ***”The Jew would ask, why is the house being built, if not for family?  …And why are the watchmen protecting the city, if not for the families in it?” (Boice) I believe this is also how the Body of Christ is meant to look*** vs2  It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. Matthew 6:19-34 ***Because, to the Jew there was (and is) no greater heritage given by God, to a man, than his family. Everything else was supposed to take lower priority.*** 3  Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. ***A warning to Israel not to offer their children (a gift from The LORD) up to moloch…as was the custom of surrounding nations (L...

 Nehemiah 4:1 Sanballat was very angry when he learned that we were rebuilding the wall. He flew into a rage and mocked the Jews, 2 saying in front of his friends and the Samarian army officers, “What does this bunch of poor, feeble Jews think they’re doing? Do they think they can build the wall in a single day by just offering a few sacrifices? Do they actually think they can make something of stones from a rubbish heap—and charred ones at that?” Lord, please  humble our hearts…cause us to be willing! - for you are more than able! Help us to rebuild and fortify this Place of Salvation - the Gospel of Christ and Him crucified - in these end times…while we still have time. Matthew 24:14 John 9:4-5
