Real Unity – One Mind on Jesus, One Mouth on Christ | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 6 –

Posted on November 10, 2011 by SoSpression

Real Unity – One Mind on Jesus, One Mouth on Christ

As we prepare for the Call, one thing we need to pray about is Unity in the Church. Unity is actually Jesus the King’s #1 evangelism strategy. He prayed that we would be one, so that the world could believe in Him.

 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. John 17:21

But what is real unity. Real Biblical Unity is not ecumenicalism, its not putting aside our beliefs, its not everybody joining the same organization, or sitting in the same building. True Unity is conforming our beliefs to the image of Christ and the Word of God. Real unity is found in Romans 15

6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 15:6

One Mind – Thinking the same things about Jesus Christ.

One Mouth – Saying the same things about Jesus Christ.

When we look at Jesus Christ long and hard enough in His Word and by His Spirit, we all will start seeing the sames glorious and beautiful things about Him. Then we will be changed into His image. We will stop fightiing with our different roles, and see each other connected to Christ. We will chop off every false head, principality, stronghold or idol that leads us away from Him. We won’t be in disagreement about Jesus, we will be in agreement with Jesus and about Jesus.

Every ministry will think the same things about Jesus. Every ministry will say the same things about Jesus Christ. That’s true Unity.

Let your Kingdom Come Father!

Who Will Ford and Cross Over into the Purpose of God? | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 7 –

Posted on November 10, 2011 by SoSpression

Who Will Ford and Cross Over into the Purpose of God on 11-11-11?

It has been so hectic leading up to the Call, I haven’t been able to keep this blog updated on time. But trust me there has been SO MUCH to express during this Countdown!

Today’s Countdown is from Will Ford III. Not the one who owns Ford Field, but the Christian speaker and author. I did not know that there was so much meaning to the word “Ford.” Did you know that the word “ford” actually means to ‘cross over’ in the low place to the other side of a river. WOW.

The spiritual significance is amazing!

A House of Prayer for Every Ethnos | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 8 –

Posted on November 4, 2011 by SoSpression

A House of Prayer for Every Ethnos

12 And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers, and the seats of them that sold doves, 13 And said unto them, It is written , My house shall be called the house of prayer; but ye have made it a den of thieves. 14 And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them. Matthew 21

We pray that Jesus Christ would march into His Church again and make it into a House of Prayer for every nation… every ethnic group. We pray that He would cast out money changers and turn over tables. We also pray that the blind and the lame would come and be healed.

After we repent, the Church will not be the best example of racial division every Sunday. But to do that, we need to become a House of Prayer for every ethnic group. Racial division is a huge stronghold in the world. It should not be so in Jesus Christ. Soon we will be the world’s best example of unity!

When we cleanse the temple, get the thieves out, and rebuild the tabernacle of David, this will happen. Not only will the world see Unity, but the healing power of God will rise up again. When we become a House of Prayer, Jesus will come and miraculous healing will take place. The blind will see, and the lame will walk.

Jesus, Shock Your Church again! Do it on 11-11-11!

Jesus Christ, The Beautiful One | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 9 –

Posted on November 4, 2011 by ShereenaMonique

We have to take our eyes off  man…Jesus is the beautiful one! He alone deserves our gaze, our adoration and our praise! HE ALONE IS WORTHY! HE IS THE ONLY ONE WHO HAS SACRIFICED FOR ALL…

Our gaze of adoration toward man is part of what has led to the demise of many Christian artists, pastors, etc. As we admire them, they become filled with pride; they begin relying on self instead of God, get full of the flesh, and are overtaken. .

Also, when we focus on man our hearts are not able to receive the full revelation of Jesus Christ that transforms our hearts and spirits. Because God will have NO other God’s before Him, and when you set your hopes on man, you put that man before God and it is a form of adultery.

Another distraction from the beauty of Jesus is earthly anxiety. Jesus is the beautiful one, Jesus is the powerful one. Earthly anxiety robs our hearts from focusing on Christ and chokes the word of God from being planted in our hearts (Matthew 6:25-34, Luke 8:14, Luke 21:34).

As the people of God, the desire of HIS heart, return their gaze, their affections, their longings back to Jesus Christ, the beautiful One, things will truly change.

The children of Israel were afraid of going before the Lord, because He is Holy. They told Moses to go for them. So that means they did not have perfect love for God (Exodus 20, 32) …perfect love casts out fear, 1 John 4:17-19! When Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up, He said woe is me, I am a man of unclean lips (Isaiah 6). When you are in God’s presence you are naked before Him and your flesh becomes uncomfortable. (I am preaching to myself also). So then we want others to go before GOD for us, we want to glean from their revelation instead of getting before God ourselves. God is the lover, but also the refiner, pruner, chastener. So then, because we are not close to God ourselves, loving Him with all of our heart mind soul and strength…what happens, we still long for God, but are afraid to get too close, so we cling to what seems like God and elevate them to the place of God and worship the creature rather than the Creator. The Children of Israel did not want to draw close to God, they wanted Moses to go for them, so their hearts were idle, not focusing on the beauty of Jesus, because Moses was on the mountain, beholding God for them. So what happened? They created an idol made of Gold to worship instead. The idol has no holiness to fear so it is easier to be in its presence.

16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away . 17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3

I challenge myself, I challenge you, to retract our hearts from all things that steal our gaze, our focus from Jesus Christ the beautiful One. Is it t.v? Is it facebook? Is it even friendships? What takes your focus, your gaze from the Holy God of Israel? When we focus on Christ we will be healed, cleansed, we will be blessed with greater revelation and understanding of who Christ is and how to love Him with all of our being.

Luke 10:27

And he answering said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.

Jesus is The Beautiful One…what owns your focus? Who holds your gaze?

Revelations 5

(This is why He is so beautiful…)

7And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

 8And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

 9And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

 10And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

 11And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

 12Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

 13And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

 14And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

Spiritual Violence: (Radio Station Testimony) | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 10 –

Posted on October 31, 2011 by SoSpression

Spiritual Violence (Radio Station Testimony)

I remember a couple years ago we did a One Song for Christ Rally in front of the offices of Hot 102.7. We protested, set up a sound system. Mustard Seed Generation organized it. Brotha Dre rapped, DJ Intangibles djed, we marched, chanted, prayed, preached the gospel. People thought we were crazy, it was only a few of us. Even Christians told us we were going about it the wrong way, that we were causing trouble.

People in the city council even tried to stop it. But  a few weeks earlier we had done a March On Sin Rally with MOS Nation to Nation around the City County building too! This was two years before Occupy Wall Street, Occupy the FED, or any of that. The Body of Christ has WAY more authority than them. We have all the authority.

Remember This – One Song For Christ – August 24, 2009? 

Remember This – The Interview with Good News Talk Show

Now as of one week ago, October 23, 20011… FM 102.7 is the first 24 Hour FM gospel station in Detroit. We asked for one song and God gave us a 24 hour FM station. No static. Praise102.7Detroit.com.

Spiritual Violence is the Ground Floor of the Kingdom of God

 Matthew 11

11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence , and the violent take it by force .

Fasting, Prayer, and Preaching Repentance is Spiritual Violence. Its the Nazirite/Forerunner/Holiness anointing of John the Baptist that leads to the Kingdom. Spiritual Violence is the Ground floor of the Kingdom of God. And the least in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ is even greater than John the Baptist, because Jesus takes us higher. But even Jesus Christ Himself built from the ground floor of Spiritual Violence – fasting, prayer, and preaching repentance. Simple faith in the Blood and Cross of Christ gives you salvation. But kingdom dominion comes thru spiritual violence.

Matthew 11

13 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 14 And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come . 15 He that hath ears to hear , let him hear . 16 But whereunto shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows, 17 And saying , We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced ; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented . 18 For John came neither eating nor drinking , and they say , He hath a devil. 19 The Son of man came eating and drinking , and they say , Behold a man gluttonous, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified of her children.

Haters gon’ hate. Hard hearts don’t move.

If you sing a happy song they don’t dance. If you sing a sad song they don’t cry.

If you fast and pray, and preach and live holiness – they call you extreme and crazy, “holier than thou.”

If you fast for 40 days, and then eat and drink – while you preach, teach and heal people, and fellowship with music and dancing – they say you are just a sinner.

But guess what? Obedience Works. Look at the Fruit!

Spiritual Authority. Spiritual Violence. God is POWERFUL when we are obedient. We obey in Humility and Self-Sacrifice, so God gets all the Glory.

Jesus Christ, Man of Sorrow | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 11 –

Posted on October 31, 2011 by ShereenaMonique

Isaiah 53

1 Who has believed our report?
And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed?
2 For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant,
And as a root out of dry ground.
He has no form or comeliness;
And when we see Him,
There is no beauty that we should desire Him.
3 He is despised and rejected by men,
A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.
And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him;
He was despised, and we did not esteem Him.

 Jesus Christ did not always have a happy life. Jesus Christ was not a handsome or attractive man. Jesus Christ was a sorrowful man, full of grief, rejected and despised.

 Sorrow:

Physical and mental pain

 What was the sorrow of Christ?

 The pain of Christ…You are being beaten, slapped, spat on, hated and cursed by those you are giving your life for? What was the sorrow of Christ? You spend years pouring yourself into a group of people who vow to follow you and be with you, and in your hour of need they all abandon you? What was the sorrow of Christ? Hours before you are captured, you crying out to God in great distress and pain, and your followers are asleep? What was the sorrow of Christ? Jerusalem, the people God had pursued for thousands of years, who waited for the Messiah, does not even receive or recognize Him, though He left the right hand of the Father to show them the way? What was the sorrow of Christ? Our sorrows that he carried.

Grief:

Sickness, disease, sadness, grief

 What was the grief of Christ?

That He bore in His body the sins of the world. He was perfect and NEVER committed sin, yet he was beaten so badly he was disfigured more than any man…for your sin and mine. The cross He suffered allows our healing today. Our grief He bore.

 Isaiah 53

4Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

 5But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

So we see that Jesus was full of sorrow, grief, rejection from those He came to save! Since Jesus had such a hard life, did He seek to make it better? Was He seeking and reading on how to have His best life now? No, even still Jesus sought to do the will of the Father.

John 4:34

 34Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

Matthew 8:16-18

 16When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick:

 17That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

 Jesus connection to the Father was so great, His love, devotion and faithfulness to Him were unmatched. He did all to please Him. This is our cue. We need not search out comfort, we need not search out vain and temporal happiness, but we have to seek the will of the Father, Jesus showed us the way.

 After Christ’s obedience was fulfilled did He not rise with all power? Did He not have total victory over death, hell and the grave? Jesus is definitely not suffering any longer, He is seated on the right hand of the Father forever. We should not expect half the grief and sorrow that Christ suffered, and God does promise to take care of us, and reward us in this life AND in the life to come for the things we give up or loose for His sake. He also promises us Joy in our fruitfulness and says we can be of good cheer for He has overcome the world. But the principle is that we do not SEEK the pleasures of life, but the will of the Father, this is what Jesus did. He had the transgression of the entire world laid on Him, He did not seek to relieve Himself from it, but He sought how He might fulfill obedience to God’s purpose for His life. He sought how to fulfill the scriptures that had prophesied of Him. And even when Peter said with good intentions that Jesus should not suffer, trying to show Him comfort and pity, Jesus rebuked Him, called Him satan, and told Peter that he did not savor the things of God, but the things of man.

Matthew 16

21 From that time Jesus began to show to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer many things from the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day.
22 Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “Far be it from You, Lord; this shall not happen to You!”
23 But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me, for you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. 25 For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. 26 For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? 27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works.

 Though Jesus had many sorrows we cannot even imagine, His focus was pleasing God, and His victory came from it, and will eternally spring from it as He receives His bride, and rules and reigns over heaven and earth eternally.

 So we must follow suit and not look for the easy way, the comfortable way, but we must savor the things that be of God, working to fulfill God’s call, not our own desires.

 The first commandment is to love God with all of our hearts, minds, souls and strength. And Jesus said if you love me you will keep my commandments. So let’s seek to fulfill this call, and victory will come from this, and the rewards will follow us from earth to glory.

 Jesus Christ man of sorrow.

Jesus Christ, victorious forever.

Kim Clement’s message from God in 2004 – An Unusual Chain of Events for “311” | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 13 –

Posted on October 30, 2011 by SoSpression

Kim Clement’s Message from God in 2004 – An Unusual Chain of Events for “311” (11-11-11)

Kim Clement is a prophetic messenger that has been in the Detroit Area for almost 20 years… He is known as a musical messenger who recieves gifts of the Word of knowledge and prophetic encouragement.

In January 2004 he spoke a word that he actually thought was for 3.11.2004. He heard 311, and assumed it was for March 11 of that year. Recently, he is realizing that he misinterpreted the timing of it. It was actually for 11-11-11. Many ignorant people would call him a false prophet, but really he’s just an imperfect human that embraced a gift of the Holy Spirit.

This is an example of how Holy Spirit gifts work. First you get revelation knowledge, then you work to get interpretive understanding, then you get action oriented wisdom. Sometimes it takes multiple members of the Body of Christ to accomplish the fullness of the Word.

Back to the Word… Today was my first time hearing about it. I was amazed! Its very accurate, it talks about the political changes of this season. It talks about Cains in the Church being exposed and humbled. It talks about the church culture changing into tarrying in houses of prayer. It talks about Kingdom experiences in Churches. It talks about a season of ending for major terrorism leaders. Major Evangelism in new ways and new areas… Even Medical discoveries to heal previously uncurable diseases. Overall, the Call will release an unusual chain of events in the Kingdom of God.

 Praise God for this Word!

Chad Taylor’s Message from God in 2003 – The Army is Deployed in Detroit! | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 12 –

Posted on October 30, 2011 by SoSpression

Chad Taylor’s Message from God in 2003 about Detroit – The Army is Deployed in Detroit

A few weeks ago, I got a word of wisdom from the Lord: Detroit is not only Motown that changed the world with automobiles, and the motown that continually changed the world with new genres of music… it was also the “arsenal of democracy” that built the weapons that won World War 1 AND 2. God is developing a new industry of ministries, a new company of pure musical levites, and a new spiritual warfare arsenal for the Kingdom of God, in Detroit on 11-11-11… start preparing now!

I was excited about this.

Recently, at a meeting for the Call I heard about a word from Chad Taylor in 2003 about Detroit. “The Army of God is Deployed in Detroit.” It reminded me of 2 things: The Word about God releasing a new warfare arsenal for Detroit. It also reminded me of college when our campus minister had us praying every morning for an hour. The main scripture he had us praying was Acts 4:29. “Now, behold their threatenings…” I tell you, by the end of that school year that campus was on fire, and we were on fire. It was in that same season that I discovered teaching about the Tabernacle of David, and it was a wrap after that the rest is history!-)

So I really resonated with the power of praying Acts 4:29 to release the Army of God. Other highlights: Detroit is called the “spiritual capitol.” A massive equipping and offensive. An Army of Youth. Events like The Call coming to Detroit. Corporate CEOS and Executives repenting and following Jesus. Detroit becoming a model city for finance and blessing. Many end time ministries based in Detroit to reach the earth. To Canada With Love, Canada being impacted heavily. Supernatural evangelism like Phillip breaking out, witches and satanists being exposed, and some being converted.

FEAR MIX VIDEO For DETROIT | Countdown the The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 14 –

Posted on October 30, 2011 by SoSpression

RETURN THE FEAR OF THE LORD TO DETROIT!

A few weeks ago praying on 8 mile the Lord showed me that the Fear of the Lord is coming back to Detroit. The fear of the Lord the key to economic revitalization, because the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, and wisdom. But its really just the key to life. We need to be scared of God’s judgements, because they are real and God will shock you if you don’t understand it.

Watch this hot mix for Detroit!

Dead Men’s Bones & Hypocrites Destroy the Legacy of the Next Generation | Countdown to The Call Detroit 11-11-11: Day 15 –

Posted on October 28, 2011 by SoSpression

Dead Men’s Bones & Hypocrites Destroy the Legacy of the Next Generation

One of the stumbling blocks that God has shown must be removed in the Church is Dead Men’s Bones & Hypocrites. This is not really about who’s ministry is the most correct… this is about the children, and the next generation.

The Pharisees thought that they were righteous because they gave so much honor to the prophets of the past. But spiritually, they were prophet-killers, because they sought to kill the new message that God was bringing in their generation. In their zeal to protect and honor the old they destroyed their own legacy.

Dead Men’s Bones

for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness. 28 Even so ye also *outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity. 29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous, 30 And say , If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets. 31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Matthew 23

Jesus Christ is in charge of His Church. Holy Spirit is in charge of releasing fresh revelation of the Word in every generation. He reveals all truth (John 15). God’s mercy endures, His truth to all generations (Psalms 117).

17 Neither do men put new wine into old bottles: else the bottles break , and the wine runneth out , and the bottles perish : but they put new wine into new bottles, and both are preserved . Matthew 9

New wine needs new wineskins. There are new movements, and therefore new organizations and organisms that God needs to build every generation. The new will not fit inside the old. But the new needs to honor the old, and the old needs to honor the new, so that both are preserved.

But unfortunately – in the history of the Church – new wineskins, new organizations, and new things that God is doing are attacked. Also, sometimes the new generation attacks the old.

51 Ye stiffnecked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, ye do always resist the Holy Ghost: as your fathers did, so do ye. 52 Which of the prophets have not your fathers persecuted ? and they have slain them which shewed before of the coming of the Just One; of whom ye have been now the betrayers and murderers: Acts 7

By worshipping dead men’s bones and resisting the Holy Ghost, you end up a spiritual murderer.

Hypocrite – What you become when you resist the Holy Ghost

 Jesus called the Pharisees hypocrites because they were actors.

 Hypocrite:

  • one who answers, an interpreter
  • an actor, stage player
  • a dissembler, pretender, hypocrite

24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel. 25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess. 26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also. 27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Matthew 23

When you worship dead men’s bones, and resist the Holy Ghost (what God is doing now), you end up just delivering lines with no real life in them. You end up being an actor. There’s no spiritual life in it – its just acting – so you end up dirty inside.

As I have been planning for my family and raising my first son, God has shown me that I need to pass on to my family more than what I know, and the doctrine I know. I need to pass on a hunger for God’s Spirit and what He is always currently doing. I don’t want my grandchildren worshipping my dead bones, or the dead bones of the founder of any church, denomination, or movement… because if so, they will end up spiritually dead and deaf to what God is doing in their generation.

You need an understanding of the Word and an Awareness of what the Holy Spirit did and is doing in every generation. A true spiritual legacy is humility and a hunger for the Word and Spirit of God. My children won’t survive on my revelation. They may die if that’s all they get, because the times will have changed.

21 As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever. Isaiah 59

Believe God for the Word and Spirit to fall on each generation. God will always do new things. The hearts of the fathers must turn to the children, and the hearts of the children must turn to the fathers (Malachi 4). 

Let’s repent for worshipping dead men’s bones and resisting the Holy Ghost. Let’s repent for being actors with more allegiance to organizations and forms than to God. Let’s also honor the prophets and fathers of the past, but build upon what God showed them by digging into God right now.

Join us on Fridays leading up to The Call and join us at The Call in TRUE REPENTANCE….

Make your way to Detroit on 11-11-11 for The Call. Pray with us. Join people all over Detroit that are fasting and praying in preparation for God to do something BIG in our city, nation, and world… NOW. Yes, NOW.

The Call
