War

This is the Truth Network horses just to inspire you relationship with God that empowers things you never thought possible. Shirley Weaver wants to take you and now yesterday's episode podcast running with horses sets a really high bar for me.

It establishes a Tom that we really rise to a level that we come up to where speaking of believing God for things we never thought possible. It didn't occur to us and that is in a setting in a culture and a world where frankly we relate well we relate better to things that we can envision easily something that's not so much of a stretch something the soul imagines easily. It is humanly possible in a natural sense can be accomplished, but today I really want to say this. This is this is where we are. We are in a prophetic time and that means the fulfillment of prophecy. Bible prophecy which is in my thinking. The perfect time to believe God for even more greater higher inspiration for things that we never imagined were possible. My name is Shirley Weaver. The podcast is running with horses and this is where we are determined to reach beyond the norm. Beyond that, that's so bullish agenda that level and we do use first Kings 18 as an example, but there are so many in God's word that just being one and that one of course the hand of the Lord came upon Elijah and really what followed was supernatural coming, no question at all. The hand of the Lord came upon Elijah and he outran the horses in a race back to the city gates and the more I learn about this time in history, the more I am certain that this generation uniquely is born for such a time as this as this time and it's also the more that I see the believers role as a catalyst for Bible sized outcomes. We said earlier, our motivation is to pray big prayers. So were believing beyond the norm for the supernatural for outrageous displays of God's power which you know is going to include his love for the whole world, so we are connected to the love of God, through the power of God in the sense of what we're discussing today so it's not one or the other.

It's both power and the love of God. So we receive inspiration for things we never thought possible and our perspective is our culture because your culture is may be different from my culture, depending on the geographical location where you live.

So the perspective is of course the culture but also the whole world. Jesus said, go ye into all the world so we include the whole world in our every thought and so first on today's podcast I really want to acknowledge this biblical reference to wars and rumors of war.

Obviously, the conflict between Ukraine and Russia that is being played out in the nation of Ukraine but also in truth, many places around the world are suffering from the effects of an armed conflict. For one, there's been an entire year of conflict in Ethiopia.

Ethiopia is Africa's second most populous country and really a linchpin of security in the region.

This conflict has left thousands dead has forced over 2 million people from their homes and is push parts of that country into famine I mean is a desperate situation for the people of their and whoever they are, and whatever their situation, God's love is watching them. He cares about them.

That's why we get involved.

That's why we keep a prophetic eye out on the horizon and we keep out here to the ground.

You know, to hear what is taking place in the whole world in our family from our family to the whole world. Matthew 24 six Mark 13 seven essentially say this the same thing you will hear of wars and rumors of war, but see to it that you are not troubled, see to it that you are not troubled these things must come to pass that the and is not yet the end is not yet in the end spoken of their is the end of the age, not the end of the world as some people would express that we really looking at the and of this age and Bible prophecy which is the point that I'm making in the take away for you as a believer is that believing God for things that you never thought possible for supernatural outcomes to design interventions. You actually have a role. I have a role. Every believer has a role. What is that role will the believers role is as catalyst for these biblical sized outcomes in your nation in a distant place and you always begin that process with discernment to discern the times as it was said in the Old Testament of Issachar that he had an understanding of the times and he knew what Israel ought to do that to you that is in your DNA. That power belongs to you as well, as it did to Issachar as part of your spiritual inheritance so you have that capacity by virtue of the indwelling Spirit of God Spirit of God on the inside of you said that discernment belongs to you because we've said before, and you know this every voice that you hear isn't necessarily the Lord speaking now all of us have heard a great deal about Ukraine from many sources. Listen all of those voices, all of those sources are not accurate. They are not speaking an accurate picture.

Many of them are. We need to discern which voice to hear in Ethiopia. By contrast, the conflict there. You may hear nothing at all in a public stance on a public platform you may you may have never heard of the conflict. This being played out there now but when you pray, you pick up on these things right.

You hear the spirit of God and he is not bringing this to your attention just for information. He brings that what those big prayers.

He's after those big prayers you hear about the spirit you pray by the spirit you hear and pray that the spirit of God, which is big fast and then you pray from their the same way and in the same time after the same pattern because you see, God is given you this authority he's given you governmental authority is a way of looking at it. All government is God's idea, the corruption of government is not of God. It originates from a very dark dark source and is the perversion of something God has set in motion for good and to bless and to benefit everyone under the jurisdiction of that particular government. The distortion and the corruption is something that prophetically is being spotlighted right now we read those passages in Matthew and Mark. Don't let your heart be troubled, these things must come to pass. God is bringing so much to the surface under the spotlight of the spirit of God as tyrants rule, they inevitably overstepped their bound as corruption funds and expression, it inevitably goes to far in the endgame. The bottom line will be that the author of everything all creation. Everything in the universe really laughs at the stupidity of these puny minded the tyrants and those that are corrupted. Those who govern illegitimately. He laughs, he laughs Psalm two and many places throughout the word, we see that the Lord God is not turning a blind eye to these things.

There is a plan in place not only to turn around the tyrants rule and overthrow the corruption but also to bring forth salvation and deliverance in a path and on a scale and in a way that we never thought possible.

And we have this opportunity to believe God in these ways for things we never thought possible because spiritually every Christian believer has governmental authority in prayer.

It's the authority to govern in the spirit realm is authority that includes dominance and a say so. Within the boundaries that God gives to us. This speaks to the message that God is giving you it he has authorized you to speak in a certain way with a certain message at this time you have a prophetic utterance, you are inspired prophetically and as you release what God puts in you to say it has a prophetic impact and listen. It also releases government because it governs your words rule they take on a governmental role, a governmental dominance and say so. Within the boundary of what God has given you to speak now, you cannot do everything they can can do something.

So what is your role when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, your role, first and foremost is prayer not own an ace in a small way on a limited scale, but remember we are running with horses, the hand of the Lord comes upon us with supernatural inspiration and we expect and believe God for things that we would ordinarily entertain or even think possible. We established the source of what we are hearing we discern that it is the spirit of God another and not another voice speaking to us, we discern that it is our commander-in-chief speaking and that he has given us authority to speak with authority to pray big prayers you know your authority released out into the spirit realm and therefore into the earth settles the issue.

It establishes the boundaries literally bonds the work of treacherous and murderous spirits spirits of treachery, murder, the spirit of the tyrant and the bully.

It establishes boundaries for those spirits him lose them in corrals them so that they do not operate with liberty. All of this because of God's plan to involve the believer and settling the outcome that he desires because apostolic lady, don't you love the ministry that God breathed through apostolic voices in the earth. It sets in order and that apostolic voice originally and foundational.

He is the Lord Jesus Christ and all those whom he chooses. It sets in order.

It establishes the boundaries it settles the issue I'm speaking of the authority that you have in prayer. Now the opposite sort of a disclaimer here. The opposite is is true of spiritual governance that looks something less than this condom bold expectant leadership. It's actually a maintenant to my from what I have experienced. It's more like fellowship is not leadership is fellowship for the sake of fellowship in the name of fellowship which is so sweet. But listen, it's not world changing its way but is not world changing, you are called as a believer.

The church is called as the body of Christ to establish world changing release. That's the mission that is the plan that's that's why you're anointed. That's why you're empowered that's why you have the Holy Spirit like Issachar you discern the time and you know what you should do. Issachar knew what Israel ought to do at that time in his day in Israel today you pick up that mantle and and we really must is not an optional thing is really we must limit just revisit here. I don't want to move too quickly away from just initially I mentioned a Salish condo pursuit.

I don't want that to sound mysterious in any way.

It's just just for our purposes right here is were talking just casually I would say it's just how we think in the natural. It's the rabbit holes we go down is the rabbit trails. We chase it's the little things. It's the insignificant and inconsequential things that we become myopic about it becomes our focus. It drains our energy and occupies our time are interested. It pulls us into a place of concentration on something that is not of that much value it really if you think about the soul which consist of, and I love this definition of the soul. I heard it years ago and I've used it ever sets the soul consist of the mind, the will the emotions and everything that has ever happened to you and your response to it.

Everything that is ever happened to you and your response to those things. Things that happened to us tend to leave us with at least some rent residue of the fear of man. Our behavior conforms to the fear of man instead of the fear of God. On some level, at least as a residue over time. It tends to build up and over time the Salish area becomes dominant.

Clearly, the Lord set in order our lives is born-again believers that his spirit living in the human spirit would dominate the soul and the flesh, that the soul and the flesh would align with the spirit, the human spirit, which is aligned with the spirit of God, and in that way you can say pretty easily you can discern and begin to realize the things that are actually distractions. They don't get to the heart of the matter are accomplished anything of eternal value. Ecclesiastes 3 we read God has set eternity in their hearts.

God has set eternity in your heart.

He is set into motion eternal things he has put you in a place that you are moving toward eternity, which of course is endless with him in his presence. He has said that in your heart and this sits in your spirit so that your mom moving along that path, not a Salish just living in the now path so I just really believe we can develop that thought and utilize that perspective to accomplish things we never thought possible. And this brings us to, you know another really important point about praying big prayers. It's the matter of right teaching you remember in our first episode we sort of cast the vision and laying out what we wanted to accomplish in this new podcast and in that episode I said primarily. You've got to have right teaching the matter of right.

Teaching points to effective discipleship.

The way we are discipled and trained is the way that we go in our example, of course, is that Jesus discipled those that God joined with him. He put them together and he didn't that in small groups and in groups. Basically there wasn't a circle and inner circle of three and then of course the most well-known group of 12 disciples, but you know they were many more who were disciples who follow Jesus and who as followers of him were disciples of his teaching.

The principle is as the twig is bent so grows the tree is the twig is bent so grows the tree so the way that you are bent matters because to become a tree of righteousness you your discipleship the way that your train in the pattern example this set before you matters a lot. It makes a difference. What you conform to, whether we conform to the basic very humanly possible. Very soul level ideas are. If our teacher is one who displays exploits and who reaches to press for the prize and not settle for less, believing God that the hand of the Lord that came upon Elijah that day before he outran horses back to just the real that same hand is available to you the hand of the Lord upon you as I said, we have the love of God in our heart and we are compelled to go but as we go. We have the power of God. We pray that prayer God is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. There's that word again eternally for ever and ever. Amen. So again right teaching is critical is important.

Your teachers are important. The example this set before used important, how will you know them. You know them by their fruit. We know one another by the fruit of our lives.

And that's how we discern those who know how to believe God for great exploits and beyond the norm beyond the Salish area you think we should pray. I think we should pray right now and believe God together. This way father in Jesus name we release states today regarding the possibilities that you have in mind as we hear these prophetic warnings that we will hear of war and rumors of wars that we guard our hearts and are not troubled.

Understanding these things must come to pass and that you have an agenda, a calendar for how this age will conclude in the next stage will be calm the knee. The place that we will dwell throughout eternity. God, today we pray for those we pray big prayers for those who are caught in these conflicts. The innocent victims God.

Those who are vulnerable. We pray for the children we pray Lord that you protect and guard them and supernaturally supernaturally put your hand on them and deliver them from the enemy of their life. The enemy that has been released against them for destruction and father.

We take authority over the tyrant and the spirit of the tyrant, and those who mean destruction and who plan to gain personally to benefit personally and to become powerful rulers over illegitimately, not by God's authority. Our plan and we govern them right now.

We take authority over that spirit and we handle it in. We bonded up and we stop the advance of the spirit of death, the spirit of hell we stop that advance now in Jesus name. In Jesus name we say that the blood of Jesus is against those forces of darkness. The blood of Jesus is against the bloodied tyrant, the bloodthirsty terrorist. The blood of Jesus is against the spirit of murder, the blood of Jesus is spread right now as a blanket of protection over the innocent and against murder against killing against trafficking in Jesus name. In Jesus name we declare it we believe you God that you and us. You are greater than the spirit that is in this world we believe you for exploits.

We believe your kingdom comes your will is done right here on earth just like it is in the blueprint of heaven, we believe it. We declare it and we thank you God more revelation, we pray, give us more revelation to see what you see here what you're saying and do what you tell us to do, no matter what.

In Jesus name we pray. Amen. I'm glad you're here for this podcast, you have a herd earlier episodes will brand name. This is episode number five and we are as I said determine to see the outcome that God desires and to raise our level of understanding faith based belief that God can do is plan so see you next time. Blessing to me to your household to your nation.

The kingdom of God, Jesus name. See you next time
