Our generation is dying because the prophets that God sent to it are waiting on a pulpit and playing the games rather than being the message that God sent them to be.

The Spirit of Elijah Comes First – If You Really Love JESUS
A Confrontational Preaching Anointing
If you love Jesus and want him back soon, think about this: Malachi 4. The Spirit of Elijah comes first.
Malachi 4 4Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. 5Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.
Jesus also confirmed this:
“Elijah COMES FIRST, and restores all things.” Matthew 17:11
The Spirit of Elijah did not turn hearts of people by preaching a message on ‘turning your hearts’.
He didn’t say “Fathers, turn your hearts back to your children. Children, turn your hearts back to your fathers,” even though those would have been very good messages.
When he prayed, he told God “Let them know that you have turned their hearts again.” But that’s not what he said to the people.
He didn’t say “Everybody turn your hearts back to God please.”
What did Elijah actually do? Read 1 Kings 18:17-40
The Spirit of Elijah set up a confrontation with idols and false prophets. He let them have the stage for as much time as they wanted. He let them set up their altars. He let them have the advantage, 450 to 1. He clowned them. He gave himself a disadvantage, making his altar especially hard to “catch fire” by dousing it with water.
What did all the wishy washy, 2 opinion cowards say when it was time for the confrontation – “not a word.” They really didn’t know whether to worship God or Baal (the idol of money & power) (1 Kings 18:21).
But when the fire came, the people automatically said “the Lord is God.” Then he killed all the false prophets.
This is the same spirit of Elijah that manifested in John the Baptist before the first coming of Jesus the Messiah.
He confronted the religious leaders of his day that really worshipped Baal (the god of money & power).
They were good at getting money, but not good at loving God with real fruit. He gave himself a disadvantage – preaching in the desert instead of on a mountain or in the middle of the city, or the temple. His father was a High Priest, he could have had an easy platform if he wanted.
People came out to hear and repent and be baptized, and he rebuked the false religious and political leaders of his day.
A Confrontational Preaching Anointing is what God will manifest before Christ’s 2nd Coming also.
If you really love Jesus Christ and want to see Him soon, don’t be scared to confront the false idols and false prophets of today.
That’s what is necessary to see revival, a great awakening, the last days harvest, and the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ.
Do you really love Jesus or not?
If I had known this before, I would have entitled my book: “Bringing Jesus Back Quicker.”
Why, because Holiness Hastens the coming of the Lord (2 Peter 3:12). But alas, too late, it’s called Killing Idols For REVIVAL. Order it today.

BEGINNINGS MATTER: The Critical Importance of Biblically Deductive Thought Processes
The Fear of the Lord is the BEGINNING of Wisdom
This article might sound intellectual but it’s not. It’s really simple. As a matter of fact, it might make you annoyed with intellectuals that are really dumb, because they reject God. The FEAR of the Lord is the BEGINNING of Wisdom (Proverbs 9:10). If you are not scared of GOD, you haven’t even started with knowledge yet. Whatever area you are not scared of God’s judgments in, is the area where you are empty in knowledge, a fool. (Prov 1:7)
I talked with a woman that had read Killing Idols For REVIVAL; they were so excited that they bought 10 copies and were giving them out to friends. She said that one thing that she got from it was a deeper understanding of the Fear of The Lord, which she also happened to be studying when her and her husband read the book! We talked about how the fear of the Lord is not only just a “reverential awe” or respect, but an actual fear of His judgments which causes us to avoid evil. “Knowing the Terror” of the Lord, we persuade men (2 Corinthians 5:11).
Do we Know the TERROR of the Lord? Well maybe that’s why we have a hard time persuading men. BOOYAH!!! Stop the blog right here and recieve the offering. LoL just kidding.
How Did Charles Darwin singlehandedly destroy western culture?
Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools Romans 1:22
How did we lose the fear of the Lord culturally?
By putting a question mark on the book of Genesis.
Beginnings matter. When Darwin questioned Genesis in science, He attempted to displace God as the First Cause of the Earth. That lead to Marxism in politics, Nietsche’s God-is dead based philosophy, case based law, survival of the fittest business concepts, outcome and socialization based education, Keynesianism in economics, liberalism in Churches, etc… even racism exploded after Darwin.
If Genesis is gone, nothing else really matters. If God didn’t create the world, what does Jesus need to die for? When the foundation was destroyed, what could the righteous do?
Psalms 11:3 If the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?
100 years later, the cultures that believed the bible were completely destroyed. Now sex sells everything, atheism is considered intellectual, and we are into the 3rd generation of government legalized and financed abortion. In our culture, we literally worship Baal (money & power) Asherah (sex), and Moloch (sacrificing our children).
How did Darwin put a question mark on Genesis?
He did it by looking at some birds! Some beaks were different sizes, some beaks were different colors… He also looked at the results of an earthquake, and saw that the habitats adapted. He also looked at some fossils… so God didn’t really create the earth. How did He make that quantum leap in nonsensical logic? He did it because He wanted to. He didn’t fear the Lord, so he had no access to knowledge or wisdom.
Real scientists have figured out that what Darwin observed is called genetics. Different species have different genes, and how they change is according to the genes that God designed them with. For instance, my wife is caramel colored, and I’m honey colored. Our son is yellow. Does that mean he’s evolving into a canary, and God doesn’t exist? Obviously not.
Do habitats change over time? Yes. Do certain species die out? Yes. Does that mean they came out of nothing? No.
Yet over 100 years after Darwin died, people still believe this foolishness. They even teach it. Darwin derived cause from a bunch of facts. But what was his cause? It can be found in the full title of his book: On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life
So Darwin’s real purpose was to prove that God didn’t exist (He wasn’t the Origin), and that certain races were favoured in the struggle for life. So His Godlessness led to racism.
When we preach the gospel , we run into this all the time. “Yeah I used to have faith but when I got here my professors said….”
Staring at Facts While Ignoring Cause is A Recipe For Disaster
How did people get so ignorant? It’s the power of inductive thought. Staring at the facts while making up stories about causes is a recipe for disaster.
That’s like buying a Ford F-150, taking it apart, listing all the pieces, and then telling Ford “you didn’t create this auto, I have all the parts right here.”
Most things from people to birds to building are made of mostly dirt and water. (hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon.) No matter how good you are at analyzing dirt and water, you cannot use it as an excuse to be willfully ignorant of the Creator that designed the different compositions of dirt & water.
“God, I studied all the dirt, and I didn’t see you.” Not only will you be going to hell, you will be an idiot going to hell.
Causes Matter.
Beginnings Matter.
The Fear of the Lord is the BEGINNING of Wisdom.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN INDUCTIVE AND DEDUCTIVE THINKING
Inductive Thinking: Looking at the facts, conducting experiments, getting witnesses
“Starting from the top”
“Looking at the results, the fruits of the tree”
“Observing the facts on earth”
Deductive Thinking: Looking at causes, determining purpose, testing out truth
“Building from the bottom”
“Looking at the foundation, the roots of the tree”
“Beginning with Truth from Heaven.”
What is the cause of earth?
In the beginning, God.
All the facts were caused by the first cause. No amount of experimentation and observation of facts can change cause. If you want to know the cause, you have to start from the top. Looking at the facts to determine cause is like looking at a bunch of bird beaks and saying that “God didn’t create the world.”
The danger of inductive or deductive thinking on its own:
Inductive thinking by itself will blind you to reality, and cause you to think and act in a useless manner.
Deductive thinking (on its own) will cause you to know a lot but not do anything about it.
Inductive question: what are the facts?
Deductive question: what is the cause?
Inductive question: what all happened?
Deductive question: why did it happen?
Inductive question: what are the statistics?
Deductive question: what is the reason?
Let’s talk about a couple of natural examples:
NCAA national championship game (I wrote this before the game last week):
Why is Kentucky and Kansas in the national championship game?
Facts:
Kentucky averages 77.1 points per game (20th overall), 39.2 rebounds per game (15th overall), 13.3 assists per game (132nd overall).
Kansas averages: 75 points per game (36th overall), 36.9 rebounds per game (54th overall), 15.6 assists per game (21st overall).
Kentucky’s record was: 32-2
Kansas record was: 27-6
Causes:
They both have major shot blockers in the paint (Anthony Davis & Jeff Withey), which makes it harder for other teams to score in the paint where it’s supposed to be the easiest to score.
Their players are bigger and more athletic than most of their competition.
They are the winningest programs in NCAA history, and happen to have excellent coaching and top level recruiting the past couple of years. John Calipari goes after the best H.S. players in the nation, and Bill Self’s coaching staff (including big man coach Danny Manning, and female strength trainer Andrea Hudy) has really caused his big men to excel.
Kansas has an excellent ballhandling pg. Kentucky has great outside shooters.
Why did Kentucky win?
Kentucky has a greater concentration of the best players. Not only that, but the NBA lockout gave them a chance to play together against NBA players twice as strong and skilled as them. This wisdom made them a united and cohesive team even before the NCAA season started.
John Calipari uses Godly wisdom that is practical. He gets all the best high school players that were designed by God with an aptitude to be the best basketball players on the planet. Many of them come to him because his program (instead of trying to convince them to be used as cash cows for the NCAA for 4 years) is designed to get them making money with their talents as soon as possible, as grown men that have to provide for their families. This is a responsibility they have before God.
My Point:
Deductive thinking always leads back to God’s Purposes, God’s Wisdom, and God’s Truth. Inductive thinking just looks at facts on earth.
Let’s look at another example in the natural.
Trayvon Martin case:
Night of Trayvon Martin Killing Filled with Conflicting Reports
I don’t think the CAUSE of the killing was racism, which I talked about in ReThinking the Trayvon Martin Case. But I think that actually knowing the cause is the most important point. The media will try to distract us with a bunch of facts that don’t matter, and instigate black vs white, or right wing vs left wing conflicts with false causes.
The inner motivation for the fight or the killing is probably the same as for most killings: fear, anger, pride, and testosterone; i.e. “the flesh.” But in the case of the law, the inner cause doesn’t matter as much as the actual outer cause for the killing.
It doesn’t matter who is black, or white.
It doesn’t matter who was strong, who had a gun, who had bad grades, who was drunk, or that they fought.
If doesn’t matter if they both were members of the NAACP, or members of respective black and Hispanic rival gangs.
It doesn’t matter who cursed at who first, or how polite George Zimmerman was when he rolled up on a stranger with a truck.
It doesn’t matter how many witnesses are brought up to confirm the “facts” at the end of the fight.
What matters is the cause of the conflict. Cause is what matters.
If George Zimmerman had no justifiable outward cause to chase Trayvon, then Travyvon was innocent and George is guilty.
Proverbs 3:30Strive not with a man without cause, if he have done thee no harm.
Here’s a question to make it clear why this was an injustice: If two guys in a bar get in a fight, and one pulls out a gun and shoots the other… Who goes to jail: the dead person or the one that killed him? Is it murder? Or is it aggravated manslaughter?
It may not be premeditated murder, but it may be aggravated manslaughter. I’ll tell you what doesn’t happen – HE DOESN’T GO FREE! And that’s on Private Property.
But what about Florida’s Stand Your Ground Law? Well who’s ground was it? He chased Trayvon on public property and started the conflict with no just cause. Then it went bad and he killed Trayvon. Any law that excuses that is a law not based in the Fear of the Lord, and is void of wisdom. The shedding of innocent blood defiles the land.
2 Samuel 23:3 The God of Israel said to me, He that ruleth over men must be just, ruling in the Fear of God.
When you create laws based on the fear of man instead of the fear of God, you get these types of results. It all goes back to the Fear of the Lord being the beginning of Wisdom.
Beginnings Matter;
Causes Matter.
Foundations Matter.
Using facts at the end to determine cause is the dumbest thing since Darwin.
Really, both deductive and inductive thinking is necessary to make good decisions. But deductive thinking is primary, and inductive thinking takes a support role to confirm, support, or deny purposes and beginnings.
Inductive thinking comes naturally for most people. But it a world where believing in absolute truth is unpopular, deductive thinking is less common. Very few people believe in the first cause, or foundation of truth. As I said in the beginning, this effects everything. Even our laws, business, education, and politics have changed foundations from truth-based to case-study based.
Have you ever had a disagreement with someone who told a bunch of stories and brought up a bunch of facts that didn’t matter, because they ignored the root cause of the issue?
“Please forget about steps 1-3, but we remember 4-5, and we have documentation on steps 6,7,8… everybody saw 9-11 and we didn’t do ANYTHING wrong… but what happened all by itself at 12 was very very unfortunate.”
Beginnings Matter
Foundations Matter
First Causes Matter
Purpose Matters
Roots Matter, because what’s in the roots will eventually be in the fruits!
Here’s another example:
Abortion
The Birth Control Movement was response to the freedom of the slaves. Who funded birth control and the invention and propagation of family planning? Who inspired Hitler’s genocidal techniques. It was the American Birth Control league! Darwin (there’s that dummy again) told them that blacks were inferior in his book. (On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life)
Therefore Birth control and eugenics was caused by darwinism, and racism. How did people justify their racism? By distracting you with a bunch of facts that don’t apply to the cause. Even to this day, Planned Parenthood is primarily in urban environments, but they claim that abortion is about women’s safety and helping poor people. Who funded Margaret Sanger? The Birth Control Leauge, the former name for Planned Parenthood.
It doesn’t matter what story they come up with now, or that a black President loves it, or that it is entrenched in our society. What matters is cause.
WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN?
In the Beginning, God Created Heaven and Earth. This is the root cause of all issues in life, and the source for all of our thinking.
God is the primary cause. God is the Beginning.
We depend on the Word of God for everything. We don’t do things because they “work.” We do things out of obedience to the Word.
We don’t let reality change our faith. We change reality with our faith, because we know the Creator.
Our doctrine is not determined by our experience, the Bible determines our doctrine and our experience.
Don’t fall a victim to inductive thinking. Get to know the Cause.
BEGINNINGS MATTER.
The Fear of the Lord is the BEGINNING of knowledge and wisdom.

STOP PARTAKING IN OTHER MEN’S SINS | Plus Shereena’s new Detroit Leadership Dream
Your REQUIREMENT of Responsibility, Sorrow, and Repentance
Responsibility in a Monarchy
In a monarchy, real people suffer or benefit from the actions of a king – but they are not responsible, because they are not the king, nor did they choose the king.
Responsibility in a Republic or Democracy
In a Republic, or a Democracy, people not only suffer or benefit from the actions of their elected leaders, but they are also responsible. Why are the citizens responsible? Because they vote, and they give their authority to the actions of their government.
Yes, people are responsible before God for what they vote for and who they vote for. Why, because through voting, they are a partaker in the actions of their government.
Yes, part of Gods eternal judgment for you – if you live in a nation where you get to vote, is how you use your authority to run your country.
Does God care about the Affairs of Nations?
In this scripture God had replaced Saul as the King of Israel, but he still had punishment delivered to Israel and David because they had not atoned for the “bloody house of Saul” or the illegal murders he had committed.
2 Samuel 21
1Then there was a famine in the days of David three years, year after year; and David enquired of the LORD. And the LORD answered, It is for Saul, and for his bloody house, because he slew the Gibeonites.
2And the king called the Gibeonites, and said unto them; (now the Gibeonites were not of the children of Israel, but of the remnant of the Amorites; and the children of Israel had sworn unto them: and Saul sought to slay them in his zeal to the children of Israel and Judah.)
3Wherefore David said unto the Gibeonites, What shall I do for you? and wherewith shall I make the atonement, that ye may bless the inheritance of the LORD?
God’s sense of justice is a lot more accurate than ours, even in the affairs of nations.
Acts 17
26And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation;
God sets times and boundaries for the habitations of nations. Contrary to what American Exceptionalism teaches – the Bible teaches that God gives nations boundaries.
Acts 9:15But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel.
The Apostle Paul’s specific call was to preach to Gentiles, government authorities, and to the people of Israel. Why would God specifically anoint Paul to preach to Kings if Political and Government authorities didn’t matter to God anymore?
How You Use Your Authority Matters to God – Its for your Life – Not just for Elections
No, You don’t get to bury your head in the sand and avoid being political. God cares about Monarchies; He cares about Republics, and Democracies. If you use your authority to vote for a certain person or for a certain cause, you are connected with that person and that cause.
So if you voted for a President who’s first act was to fund the abortion and genocide of millions of black babies, or first proclamation was to declare June gay & lesbian transgendered month, then guess what you did… You funded the abortion of millions of black babies, and you helped declare the month of June to be gay, lesbian, transgender month in America. You need the blood of Jesus to wash you from that sin. You can get forgiveness, but you have to acknowledge your sin, and ask for forgiveness.
If you voted for a guy who violated the Constitution and invaded another country on false pretenses, then guess what you did? Ditto. You had a part to play in that. You need the blood of Jesus to cleanse you of that sin.
If you continually vote for corrupt politicians, not only will your city be ruined, but you will give an account to God for your vote. Everybody wants to clown Kwame Kilpatrick, but hey… he apologized, repented, and he’s moving on.
Have you apologized repented, and asked God for forgiveness for voting for Kwame? If you voted for him, you need to do that, because you were a partaker in his sins. The same applies for any other corrupt politician in the history of Detroit. You know that’s a pretty deep rabbit hole. If you are in it, you need to get yourself out of it, spiritually.
LAY HANDS ON NO MAN SUDDENLY, DON’T BE A PARTAKER IN OTHER MEN’S SINS, KEEP YOURSELF PURE
1 Timothy 5:22
22Lay hands suddenly on no man, neither be partaker of other men’s sins: keep thyself pure.
When Kwame was campaigning for Mayor of Detroit, I could not support him or vote for him. Praise God for his humble soul now; I know he has repented and is very talented and probably doing good things. But back then I knew he was a talented actor and a phony leader. I saw him praying in churches acting humble, then on the radio talking about how much he loved JayZ. Yet I went to churches and saw men of God laying hands on him, prophesying over him, and calling him anointed. These types of pastors and spiritual leaders not only helped ruin the city of Detroit, but they also are all partakers of his sins. The Church is especially responsible, because Jesus already gave us all authority in heaven and in earth – but we have misused it.
Lay hands on no man suddenly, and be not a partaker in other men’s sins.
Have these pastors, leaders apologized to the city, repented, turned the other way, and asked God for forgiveness? Or do they just see their mistake as Kwame’s episode? I’m not saying you’re condemned. No condemnation! -) I know that’s our favorite half-scripture in the Bible. I’m just saying that we must acknowledge our sin to God and turn the other way.
partaker: to enter into fellowship, join one’s self to an associate, make one’s self a sharer or partner
When God showed me revelation on spiritual adultery in gospel music, I no longer play those songs or promote artists who are teaching spiritual whoredom to God’s people. When artists that I had promoted in the past changed and went into natural and spiritual adultery, I then went the other way and warned people in my sphere of influence how to make better choices.
When a preacher or spiritual leader that we have empowered falls into sin or error, we have to repent for being a partaker of their sins. Only then can we restore them in a spirit of meekness.
It’s great to restore your brethren with a spirit of meekness if they are overtaken in a fault… but what if you are a partaker in their sins because you have laid hands on them, promoted them, or voted for them?
Do you just “restore” them, as if you were innocent, or restored yourself… not realizing that you both need to repent? Are you just going to move on, thinking that you are moving forward? No you’re not moving forward. We are just going around and around in the same downward spiral.
That’s why there are the same sins, scandals, and corruptions over and over again in every generation. People don’t even think that holiness or purity is possible anymore, because we as the Body of Christ have not followed Christ’s example yet.
No, we cannot gloss over sins and just move on, “keeping it positive.” No, we need to repent first, so that you can give others a clear message to repent from! The Bible says that Godly sorrow leads to repentance. That means if there is no Godly sorrow, there is no repentance.
IF THERE IS NO GODLY SORROW, THERE IS NO REPENTANCE OR SALVATION
2 Corinthians 7 10For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death. 11For behold this selfsame thing, that ye sorrowed after a godly sort, what carefulness it wrought in you, yea, what clearing of yourselves, yea, what indignation, yea, what fear, yea, what vehement desire, yea, what zeal, yea, what revenge! In all things ye have approved yourselves to be clear in this matter.
Godly sorrow is not glossing over and moving forward. In 2 Corinthians 7, God was speaking to Christians about their repentance, not sinners. Let’s look at the description of Godly Sorrow and Repentance for Christians in the New Testament:
Sorrow – grief, annoyance, sadness
Carefulness – haste, eagerness, diligence to change and do right
Clearing of yourselves – reasoned statement on how and why you act
Indignation – irritation, vexation, anger
Fear – terror, dread of what is wrong
Vehement Desire – longing, strong need for what’s right
Zeal – excitement, heat, fervor in spirit, pursuing, defending
Revenge – vengeance and punishment, not against people but against deception and principalities
Clear – pure, venerable, respectable, clean
That’s real repentance, and that’s when you have proved yourself to be clear of a matter. Imagine how different our churches, our cities, our nations would be if we didn’t just gloss over scandals, or look the other way, or just blame the person who did it. What if everyone who had partaken in the sins of a leader – by voting, laying hands on, or promoting them – actually understood that they were a partaker in his sins, and then went through the process of Godly sorrow and repentance?
I apologized to God for voting for and supporting President Bush. I didn’t know or take the time to research that after the initial conflict, he started unconstitutional wars and violated the Constitution with the Patriot Act. I will never vote for anyone remotely like him again. This is why I now support honest and consistent people like Ron Paul (who in the 3:20 mark in this video is known for not taking bribes) instead of Rick Santorum (who voted to fund Planned Parenthood) or Mitt Romney (Mitt flipping on abortion). Anyone who can comfortably flip flop and fluently talk out of both sides of their mouth – or anyone who can knowingly violate their integrity, then justify it as a win for the team is not worthy of leadership.
One of the first and foremost requirements for leaders in the OT and NT is that leaders don’t take bribes. Biblically, the leadership that we select reflects us. It is very telling to the situation in our nation that when God finally gives us a choice of a Christian, someone known for consistency, integrity, not taking bribes, and bringing back truth and accountability to government; evangelical Christians ignore him and try to decide between the Mormon and the Catholic.
This doesn’t mean that we can only vote for, support, promote, or lay hands on perfect people. It means that we need to take our authority seriously, hold people accountable, and fully repent whenever mistakes are made.
If Ron Paul doesn’t win, then at least I know that I didn’t give support to someone with no integrity. If Ron Paul is elected and then decides to break the law, or suddenly turns into the Anti-Christ, then I will hold him accountable. If he doesn’t change, I will repent, ask God for forgiveness and repent with Godly sorrow.
You are Responsible
I’m not concerned with simpleminded people that brag because they won an election, or a dispute, or a position… not realizing they just hung themselves spiritually. What are you really winning? If you won by supporting what’s wrong, you are just winning judgment on yourself! I’d rather lose temporarily and be right in heaven than win wrong now, because truth always comes out on top. God’s judgment is very REAL. It’s real right now, and it’s real in eternity. Realize that you are responsible and accountable for what you vote for, elect, lay hands on, or promote!
People that just bury their head in the sand and refuse to fight are accountable too. Is there not a cause? David came to the battlefield to fight Goliath for the kingdom of God (1 Samuel 17). Children are dying, and you want to hide?
We can’t give up on seeing the Lord’s harvest and the Righteous change that God wants to bring to the world. Part of righteousness is being a father to the poor, and searching out causes that you don’t even know yet.
Job 29 16I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out. 17And I brake the jaws of the wicked, and plucked the spoil out of his teeth.
So while we are ignoring the signs of the times and the quarterly scandals that plague the Body of Christ, there is a generation being hardened and vaccinated against the truth. Just like vaccines inject people with a watered down weakened version of a virus in hopes that they become immune to the real thing – satan is doing the same thing against the truth. He’s making sure people get the hypocritical weak and watered down version of Christianity, so their soul can be immune to the real thing.
While we support leaders with no integrity and then act like we aren’t responsible – the city, the nation, and the children suffer for it.
If you vote for someone, or promote someone, or lay hands on someone – hold them accountable! You will be judged for what they do, because you will be a partaker of their sins.
Lay hands on no man suddenly, be not a partaker of other men’s sins, keep thyself pure. 1 Timothy 5:22
Detroit Leadership Dream
For those of you that read Killing Idols For REVIVAL: A Behind the Scenes Look at 9 Enemies of God’s Harvest, you are familiar with the pattern of supernatural dreams and teachings that God used to show us how to defeat over 9 principalities and strongholds that inhibit revival and the 3rd Great Awakening in America.
We’ve got a surprise for you! I initially wrote this message out on Monday of this week. Noone saw it but me. Thursday, my wife had a dream… When she told me about it, I thought it was fitting. Come back later, and Lord willing, it will be posted right here:
3-8-12
I dreamed I took a bus to a fashion show with lots of people I knew from college. The fashion show was being held at a large building in Detroit. When we arrived, I and a few others went inside to get information before everyone else loaded off of the bus. When we went in the owner said the show had been cancelled. The owner was a prominent black business man in Detroit, who also claimed to be a strong Christian.
When he said the show was cancelled I commented that I was not coming to anymore events at the building because that was the second time an event I was going to attend had been cancelled. When the owner heard me say that he replied “just pray for me, I don’t even know how I am going to eat tonight”. Although the owner of the building looked and acted wealthy, he was actually very poor and was in a lot of debt with the property he owned, and did not even have enough cash to eat that night. The fashion show had been cancelled because the owner did not have the money.
The owner allowed his building to be used for Christian and secular events, whoever could pay were allowed to rent space in his building. When he said ‘just pray for me’ I took it serious and really went to lay hands on and pray for him. But before I prayed, I asked him sarcastically, “we had TheCall here and we prayed for 24 hours, did you come?” as if to say, if prayer is so important to you, why didn’t you come to TheCall. He did not answer…I laid hands on him and began to pray.
He started kissing my cheek, trying to seduce me and distract me from praying for him, but I ignored him and he stopped and I began to pray and see in the spirit. I prayed not for his finances, but that God would give him an obedient heart, and bless him to submit to God and do God’s will. As I was praying the large group I came with, came in off the bus. The room became filled with the many people off the bus and many leaders and pastors in Detroit. I stopped praying for the owner of the building and began to pray and speak over the whole room to all the leaders and pastors.
As I was praying and speaking, a lesbian couple came up and stood in front of me and started kissing. The one facing me was looking directly at me while kissing her partner. They were doing this trying to intimidate me with their homosexuality, as if I would not speak the truth for fear of offending them. The homosexual spirit in the women was familiar with the pastors, the lesbians kissed standing in front of me, but everyone could see them and not one of the pastors corrected them or said anything against them; it was as if it was a common thing. I could sense that the pastors did not like it, but they would not correct it either. I continued to speak and pray and the Lord began to speak through me and I walked towards the front where all the pastors and leaders were seated before the people.
The Lord spoke through me and said something like “until My work becomes your work it won’t work” or “until My will becomes your will it won’t work”. God was saying that nothing they try will work until they begin doing His will and His work. God was moving against them. That is why the owner of the building was falling into poverty, because God was moving against his works because he was not doing, nor was he concerned with God’s will.
I woke myself from the dream, because I was literally saying aloud in my sleep “it won’t work, it won’t work, it won’t work”.
Partial Interpretation Points
Much of the dream is self-explanatory, but here are a few potential points:
– Young people from college coming for a fashion show may represent a younger generation seeking to be clothed with righteousness, or a young generation coming to church for the wrong motives
– The pastor trying to seduce to stop the prayer could represent the seducing doctrine of the Nicolaitans or Jezebel
– The lesbians trying to distract the messenger and the pastors accepting it, could represent a feminine leadership style that appeals to the flesh of women
