We decided to Catch Up With JayBrian… and He decided to Start the PROTEST 1 month early!!!
eSoSa: What have you been up to since you moved to Texas?
JayBrian: I moved to Texas September 2011! Really, I wanted to focus on my family, and becoming a Godly, well rounded man. So, I’ve been WORKING really hard as a provider!!!
I didn’t grow up with my father in the home so I made a lot of bad decisions in my ignorance. My father and I have a great relationship now, in fact he has helped me tremendously in my adult life! It was really important to me to please God with this glorious responsibility of being a Provider, Protector, & Priest! Lol!
I didn’t have the best examples, but I had the Holy Spirit, and being led to move to Texas I have been SUPER Blessed by some Strong Godly examples in the area of family. I didn’t comprehend that my prayers would be hindered if I didn’t properly deal with my wife according to knowledge as a co-heir in Christ! 2 Peter 3:7 continues to change me daily!
I’m being taught to properly COVER my wife as Christ covers me, and what a covering really is according to 1 Corinthians 11. Those are just a few points to mention. You know we hear ALL the time that “the home is the first ministry” but in retrospect we’re never taught it! And very seldom do we see it…
So as I was thoroughly taught and begin to study to change me, I realized what REALLY brings God Glory… Family/Families being produced and functioning the way GOD created them to function. 1 man & 1 woman becoming 1 in the image of Christ, Husband is to wife as Christ is to HIS church, The Bride of Christ! Eph. 5:25 I’ve learned what it means to NOT entice my children. Eph. 6:4 but to bring them up in discipline… You know!
Quality time is not being physically there, but mentally or emotionally somewhere else! All we hear now, equally from men and women is that they’ve been called to “minister” or to the nations but often if not the majority of time it’s the home front that never gets the ministry! 1 Tim 3:5 is very clear in that you don’t belong in ministry if you can’t manage your home… First!!! We chalk it up to the facts of life when we hear about family issues or children acting out… Because it’s the “mand uve gawd” (that people low key worship) we don’t resort to the bible for instruction!
What is a youth pastor? It’s not biblical… And I was one, for 2 years (I did a terrible job might I add) Lol. These kids need their PARENTS!!!!! The word of God means nothing if the parents don’t live it, the authority of God means nothing if the father is absent! Scripture states to the parents to train “your” child in the word! Of course I’m not against all youthful activities though. The only biblical youth pastor other than a parent is a youth that is a pastor! Timothy was a youth!
[esosa – we realize that some children are fatherless and/or have unbelieving parents and that some pastor-teachers are called to help God be a father to the fatherless]
This world has done a fantastic job at warping our perspective as it relates to this life. The reason behind it is we’re raised to be either double minded “you know church ain’t everything” or out of balance Christians ” we can be constantly entertained by anything, except God!” Not according to Psalms 1 or 2 Corinthians 6.
I’m not saying that adults can’t dine in places that serve alcohol or going to the movies is the devil! It’s about balance!
Christians are to rely on the fruits of the Spirit and discern in everyday life! These kids will never get this if it’s not modeled by the parents in fear of The Lord!
So the curse ended with me as far as my lineage/legacy! Me and my wife are living by faith together raising our children of 3, she is at home I’m at work, I Believe God is pleased!
My Protest is against men and especially women who leave their homes to pursue some type of calling by “god” (little g on purpose) and forsake their homes, husbands, wives, and super-especially the children which God said is HIS heritage in Psalms 127.
Parents be youth pastors… Men become husbands and fathers obedient to The Lord… Women become wives and mothers submitted to your husband, which is obedience to The Lord so that the Word won’t be reviled!
eSoSa:One of the reasons we had to have you do the first protest concert is because you were actually in the dream where God showed us the protest in the last chapter of the book Killing Idols for REVIVAL. When did your “Protest” start and how do you describe it?
JayBrian: My protest began when I was filled with the Holy Spirit. I didn’t quite understand everything neither did I immediately take action! I was a young adult in my early twenties, I was raised Christian but I matured to a believer! The difference, doing what I was told vs. doing what I believed.. Now I have my own convictions.
I started reading the bible for myself and depending on God to give me understanding. Boy o’ boy was I in for an awakening! I’ve been in church my whole life not knowing what it meant to “be the church.”
Let’s say I was Jermaine Dollar and I needed change you can say the bible was the coin machine!!! I instantly noticed that religion was a disease that had life ending side effects. The bible isn’t some source of power to manipulate or control humans that are lost, broken, hurt, confused, abandoned, and abused!
Remember this: Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth… B.I.B.L.E haha! The word of God is Life for the Believer the perfect guide for salvation and the faithless! In Psalms 119:11 David expressed what should be the sentiments of every Christian. We should not want to sin!
The bible warns of a great delusion in 2 Thessalonians, so we will have people who just won’t get it, but I’m believing for the ones who really want the God given Truth! I just want people to read the BIBLE!
My Protest is against ignorant Christians who continue to believe men over God, against leaders who carelessly miss handle something as sharp as the Word of God! I admonish them to wake up, stop chasing dreams and live what the bible instructs, as children of light in this dark ending world!
No wonder our children are falling away at record breaking percentages, no wonder “holy” men are continuously in the news for scandals and such, no wonder we’re turning to reality tv and all other mediums for exposure/platform, our (so-called) leaders are the main ones embracing the worlds idols!
We share stages, church buildings, we write movies together, we go on tour, I mean we are literally what the bible would call prostituting everything even ourselves.
Now there’s this teaching that has resurfaced made popular by reformers – teaching there’s no sacred/secular divide!
WHAT? Let me remind believers that JESUS taught us in John 15:18 that “The World Hates You!” Then in verse 20 HE reminded us “the servant is not greater than the master”!
We are commissioned to win the lost, not the world system that hates us! “We” can’t save something that was never intended to be saved.
People will be drawn by lifting up Jesus, not culture, art, numbers, and certainly not man!!!!
Don’t be fooled by the spiritual ambitious bunch, look for/pray for the men whose leadership modeled that of Paul, Peter, John, and the like!
Paul called himself the chiefest sinner, became a slave to righteousness and the pure gospel…
Peter denied Jesus, and by the grace of God wrote great instruction on false teachers and our call to be Holy(separated).
John who lived in the “wild” engaged culture with no problem – in fact he confronted the “king” about his adulterous lifestyle.
You see bro we carry truth boldly, not passively, and in this day we have to be willing to lose everything even life just as our predecessors in the faith did!
One of my favorite scriptures is John 5:44: How can ye believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that cometh from God only?
eSoSa: I love that scripture too! One thing I get from it is that Jesus basically said “we can’t believe” if we’re trying to get honor from men. That’s a faith issue! So our “world changing faith” becomes useless if we accept honor from men instead of God. That’s part of the reason we believe for revival and for the harvest but we don’t see fruit that remains because we are trying to get honor from men, not God. So when it comes time to preach what God says, we are too busy thinking “this won’t get me honor, money, awards, respect, speaking engagements, recommendations from men.” What were some of your main takeaways from the book Killing Idols for Revival?
JayBrian: Honestly bro… TRUTH! Plus, I truly appreciate your diligence in teaching on how business within the kingdom is to be handled by scripture! Oh, one more… That awful spirit of Jezebel that aggressively hinders our men today! Killing Idols for Revival is a must read! Blessings to you and your family!
“Living in a foolish world I am not a foolish man, I lost all of my foolish pride
Father of a baby girl gotta show her what a man is, also a father of 2 boys
Gotta show’em what the fear of God really means I’m a husband to 1 wife
Proven to this world what the God family really looks like”
