I HAVE A DREAM!

Last week, I posted a "commercial" blog about our ministry.
This week, I'm expanding and expounding on the topic of "ministry",
to include a vision/dream I had about that . . .

ALL = ENCOMPASSING

I want to share with you, my readers, a DREAM. A dream in my mind and heart.  It is about The Churches of America. I see them totally revamped. There are many, many changes, all good. The main thing is, IS that there is a true and powerful dynamic that did not exist before. There are transformed lives and communities. It is like nothing we have seen yet or before.

First, the churches have "walked away" from the OT construct of The Levite ministry, or "the ways of the Temple". No more cajoling or begging or teaching of "the tithe". That has been a real corrupted teaching in many places. People rather, are GIVING from their hearts, and are never coaxed or forced or embarrassed or battered into giving. Money, food, clothing, and other resources just POUR IN. No need is left unmet. No worries about the ministers, your needs are being met too!
No more guilt-tripping people to come "to church", get involved or sit on this or that committee. People are finding their place, and connecting as the Spirit of God leads. Pastors and leaders are sensitive to The Spirit and can "see" differing callings on folks, and encourage the same to follow their heart, their call and gifts.
The "love of money" which has been a stronghold in many churches is a thing of the past. Money is seen as a "tool" and an effective asset to help people. Money in the church takes on a whole new meaning, as the selfishness and hoarding spirits are all gone. The goal is no longer "how big a building we can build", but "How does God Almighty want us to use this surplus of money?" And "How can we be a blessing to our city?"

Next, the pulpit is GONE. Instead, there sits a high-back chair,
like a padded stool, along with boom-mic and possibly a side lectern for a Bible or tablet. The teacher/preacher may also be wearing a wireless, so he can roam whilst teaching/preaching. The "audience" feels more of a connection with the minister up front "on stage", as that big hunk of furniture is gone. Instead of standing "over" the congregation, the leader is "sitting" while he teaches. The need for standing and pacing and theatrics in the pulpit area are no longer "a thing". The leader is free to express himself in God, in his gifts, without the traditions of men limiting him or her to a "pulpit".

After the message is through, the whole gang is adjourned to the "sitting area", where all may discuss and ASK QUESTIONS about the message = and where there can be training of individuals who are eventually being raised up for various ministries. This is a place where there are many ministers, teachers, preachers, helpers, giftings, services, administrators, and various talents.
I see the churches raising up fresh and radical musicians for the Glory of God. Rock bands are being raised up and sent forth. Jazz bands are being trained and raised up. Ministries are being birthed, trained and raised up and SENT FORTH. No more of this, "Well this is your church, and you are part of it, and you have to stay put. Bloom where  you are planted." No more latching upon people who are proven to be effective ministers of the Gospel, and Jesus is raising them up and about to send them Himself.
Church is no longer just about "the pastor" or one man, one woman. Gifts of the Spirit are functioning in order, and there are many who could be "pastors", many who are doing the work of the ministry, the works of Jesus. With -- no jealousy.

The poor, working-poor and homeless are being fed, clothed, and housed. They were being counseled, delivered, taught and brought into their right minds, with the help of The Spirit and proper nutrition/supplements  and cleansing and healthy diet.
There are FREE STORES popping up, where goods are provided to families with very little "red tape". Resources are just pouring in, people are donating their time and talents and treasures to the benefit of all. Similar to the NT model of The Church … The Ekklesia, The Called Out Ones.

I realize that "church" is not the building, not the facility, but THE PEOPLE. These people are going forth with the Love of God and The Glory of Jesus; they're out there in the world, "church without walls", shining with the Light of Jesus.

MY VISION

But I also had … a dream. A dream I woke up from yesterday morning. It was very vivid. And memorable. With the dream came a definite directive from The Spirit of God. I was starting a church!  Now, I have pastored a few churches before, and started and conducted Bible Studies, but never really "started a church" (except for our House Church, which is really a work of the Holy Spirit). 
In this dream, I found a building, a facility for a "meeting house". People started to come. The pulpit there was also moved. There was a high-back padded stool/chair on which I sat, where I did a bulk of teaching. I had a boom-mic on the side. I had a small lectern/stand (lucite, I think) that could hold a Bible or tablet. We had a "sitting room" with nice furniture, where we would "adjourn" and go there for refreshments and Q & A's.  Nobody felt threatened but more at ease in the fact that questions were OK! I told the people that nobody has to take my word for anything, they can come to truth on their own, with the help of the Holy Spirit. I was like a "guide", a teacher, YES, but more than that. A Friend. One who was there also to help, to stand beside and encourage. The prophetic gifts were being utilized and in operation.
A lot of the things I listed above were happening in this new work. I suppose the 2 "dreams" are one, ONE VISION.
From this place, the Glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ was being proclaimed.
The faces & countenances of all were glowing.
Revelation Truth & Knowledge was coming out, and all were
benefitting from the teaching.

I also made it clear, that at no time, would I ever allow any guest speaker to come and unload a message with manipulation, condemnation, hell-fire/brimstone and the like.
Our thrust in this body is GRACE. And there were many revelations in teaching coming forth to destroy the traditions of men and false teaching that has been so rampant in the churches. There has been way too much division.
And … The ministry of deliverance is being brought forth, out of the shadows, back rooms and tents! We desire to have weekly or monthly meetings with real deliverances and healings taking place.

SO NOW … I'm looking for a building. Because . . . it's important to a lot of folks to have a "center" or headquarters of operations, to get a lot of kingdom work going, and done.
It's something we got to believe in, believe for and also believe that God's people want to "come with". I think they will.
I think many will catch my vision, and want to be a part.
Key word: WANT TO.
So I'm okay with having a building. The most important thing here is … all the people we can help, all the transformations that can happen, and The Glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ going forth!!

Welcome To The Prince of Peace Ministries!

I don't usually do "commercials", but I felt the need to describe our ministry to the public, and also, the need to go "light" in this week's blog . . . for several reasons, which I will keep private for now! So now, presenting to you THE PRINCE OF PEACE MINISTRIES.

BRIEF HISTORY

Prince of Peace Ministries was founded in 2001, in Wellington, Kansas. It was at this time that the Holy Spirit dropped upon us his anointing for deliverance, in a very big way. He also gave us a mandate that has since radically changed our lives. Since that time, we have grown in several ways, mostly spiritually, but also in the facets of our ministry.

One of the major things that changed was our move to Phoenix, Arizona.

The best way for me to describe the rest  . . . is to include these jpegs (pictures). These main two pictures I think catch the essence of what we do. And another bonus: A shorter blog.

MAJORING IN GLORY & DELIVERANCE

Of course, the 2nd picture mainly focuses on the Music of DLivahh, an "overflow" that

God gave to me, celebrating rock music, energized with joy and truth.

And with that, I just want to add that everything that we do, we do in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, for His Glory, and utilizing the anointed gifts of deliverance that he has granted to us. We have gained and gleaned so much information and revelation, we desire to share it with the World, and to help as many people as God brings to our path. We do not strive for a following ... we are not trying to "build" some monster ministry, with a copper top that you can see all the way from Dallas ... we just "go" where he sends us, to whom he sends us to, with the glorious gospel of transformation, that which brings grace and glory and REDEEMS folks and RESTORES them and HEALS them. That is our goal, that is what we look for in every case. If you want to know more, or need some help, feel free to contact us.  *Tony & Renee Prince >>> THEORIGPRINCE@YAHOO.COM

We also subsist by the power, blood and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by generous gifts from folks like YOU!  We have a PayPal, I just gave the email address ... and we will gladly accept donations of every kind! Especially money! Sometimes, people have blessed us with "items" and we have had the pleasure of being a "conduit" so that others can be blessed as well.  That is the name of the game, and we are givers and believe that God Almighty, "Yahweh" is the biggest giver of all! MAY GOD BLESS YOU AS YOU SHARE and become a part of something bigger than yourself, whether you join us or some other work.

LAWLESSNESS IN THE LAND!

I don't usually get "political" in my blogs, but I just couldn't
leave this one alone! So, if you want to bow out now, you may
do so … "Really don't mind if you sit this one out!"
I'm going to be very blunt in places here, so watch out!
I am fed-up with all the evil & darkness that has been
running rampant in our great land. Enough is ENOUGH.

Righteousness exalts a nation, But sin (lawlessness) is a disgrace to any people.
(Proverbs 14:34)
Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold.(Matthew 24:12)

There is so much going on in our nation TODAY … a Nation
in Distress, mind you. It has to be addressed. Everything
within me says "stand up, speak out" and thus I am doing so.

WHERE DO I START?

It is an election year. The lines have been clearly drawn now.
Yet, there is an inner "unrest" among The People of America …
they are witnessing a government running amok, and a president
acting all "rogue", and nothing seemingly being done about any of
it. To make matters worse, we have a former Secretary of State
who has made a career in LYING, and who was under investigation
by the FBI … which agency "let her go free" when she clearly broke
the law, again and again and again. Where is the rule of law now?
How can any laws in the land mean anything now, if someone like
Hillary Clinton gets off scot-free? Her attitude is "Laws are for poor
people, as for me, I am above it all!" Such is the attitude of many
such "elitists", who are only in power to get more power. Hillary's
agenda? Well, first she believes that she is "entitled" to be the
next president of the United States, but secretly she wants to
"steal" America, and destroy it. We know this by her actions and
her track record, and by what she believes. LAWLESSNESS.

I have a friend who states, "It doesn't matter what party it is (referring
to the main 2 political parties) … they are all corrupt and owned by
private interests, etc." Well, part of me believes that. The other part
disagrees. Hillary would never be part of the Republican party, the
"Grand Old Party" (GOP) as she can't stomach its conservative base.
YES, there are still some that uphold the beliefs, platforms and traditions
of the GOP, and are not RINOS (Repubs in name only). She embraces
the traditions of the Democrats, who have a history of loving slavery,
starting the KKK and supporting it and championing "gun control" and
throwing billions of dollars at every stupid cause they think is important!
It doesn't matter if it bankrupts the whole entire country, and enslaves
the populace, the more the better!  LAWLESSNESS.

MR. OBAMA AND THE SHOOTINGS

Here is a man who won't address an enemy by name!  Rather it
appears that he protects it. And there is already a bundle of evidence
that he is behind the founding of ISIS. But he can't utter the words
"Radical Islam Extremists" or "___ ___ Terrorists" because he has
no intention of ever stopping them! He gets more angry at Trump
for his words, then he does exercising energy to rally the country
together and comforting the afflicted. When there is a mass shooting,
he uses the crisis as an opportunity to promote the idiotic gun control
agenda. At moments when Americans need a comforting word, a
beam of solidarity in the face of terror, the president stumps for political
rhetoric and repeating new world order CRAP.  Lawlessness.

Don't even get me started on all the ways this man has engaged in
lawless acts … they are too numerous to mention. The American people
get duped, "the sheeple", by the lamestream media and voices that water
down the dastardly deeds committed by this Administration.
In his "community organizing" mode, he has instigated and aggravated
racial tensions between blacks & whites, and especially between blacks
& cops. You don't believe it? All you have to do is go to YouTube and pull
up one of the videos where it shows him making incendiary statements
against whites, against cops … it's all out there. Just like the videos that
he doesn't want you to see how he is so enamored with Islam, to the
total ignoring of AMERICA, and what we are really all about. I doubt if
he truly understands, and it appears that he has been programmed to
HATE what America stands for.  LAWLESS.

LIAR!!

How many times would it take you to shun a "friend" or neighbor
or co-worker who lies to you? After a while, you won't accept anything
they say or do as factual. The Truth has long departed.
And how many times has Obama LIED, to the American People??
Lots! And don't say, "Well all politicians lie!" That doesn't excuse
the blatant propaganda and constant spinning and stretching of in
information, all designed to "throw us off" and get us to start fighting
with each other. OH! That's already happening! We should be fighting
THEM!! But, NO. We are too busy distracted by their "crises" and the
news, and by The Kardashians or our favorite reality shows or our
favorite singer on Vevo. And wait …
"We interrupt this story on corruption in government with another mass
shooting!" OOOH AHHHH Ohhhh, what now??? People better wake
up and smell the burnt coffee & donuts because it ain't about what your favorite
newscaster is telling you, it ain't about what the White House is telling
you, it is The Secret Agenda is going forth!  'Take down the Nation.
Subvert the Constitution. Stall the Elections. Time to Create another
Crisis to get folks' minds on what we want to tell them. They'll have to
listen to us when it gets really bad out there. They'll come running to us
because they will want to feel SAFE.'  LAWLESSNESS.
LIES.  All Lies. We can do something about all this.

ANARCHY IS THE WORD.

"We have met the enemy, and he is us!"
Spoken by a famous cartoon long ago.
Have you been programmed enough??
Are you conditioned enough?
Then you can just "Ho-Hum" and roll your eyes at this blog and forget
that any of this is going on … it's just a bad dream, fall asleeeeeeeep.

So … you're hearing all these catch phrases:
"Hate Crimes".
"Racism … All whites are racists".
"Kill the Cops".
"White Privilege".
"Someone has to pay".
And … Others.

You can jump on the bandwagon, join the cause and think you are
bettering the human race. Man, you've been duped. It's a sham-scam, Sam.
The word is ANARCHY. Lawlessness. THAT has been trickling down from
THE TOP … Yes, from The Top. Mr. Obama with his blatant disregard for
Congress and the Supreme Court, and his cavalier position of having a
"pen & a phone" to try to enact his own laws! While breaking several.
NEXT … enter BLM, "Black Lives Matter". A front group that acts like
they care about "black lives" but really is about tearing at the fabric of
unity, all through racism and hate. This is documented. When Martin
Luther King was marching in his peaceful marches, he never promoted
or instigated riots, looting, thuggery or any thing of the like. How anyone
can call this groups' actions "protesting", are gazing through broken glasses.
Who is behind all this? "The Powers That Be" (TPTB), aka "shadow government".
You might also call them The Puppet Masters. Powerful 'invisible' entities.
LAWLESSNESS in Action.

TIME FOR A NEW ACTION

I have sent out the call for intercessors and prophets to RISE UP
and come against this spirit of Lawlessness, and PRAY. These
"warriors" know what to do, I trust. I have seen the great results
of concerted and effective prayer, when properly directed and
energized by The Spirit of God. As for everyone else …
I think people should also "speak up" and stand up and take
a stand against the tide of evil that wants to destroy this nation.
It's TIME.
WE the PEOPLE must once again, RISE UP and be heard!!!
We can bring a "redress of grievances" to our representatives
and senators, those who still care about this nation.
It might look like Congress is doing nothing, and not caring.
But … I believe that God Almighty has people in places we
are not aware, and he has reserved for himself those who will
not bow the knee to the IDOLS of today.
Finally --

PRAY. INTELLIGENTLY. SPIRITUALLY.
UPROOT THIS EVIL SPIRIT OF LAWLESSNESS!
RISE UP. TAKE A STAND.
SPEAK UP, TAKE UP THE RIGHTEOUS CAUSE.

DON'T SIT IDLY BY, AND DO NOTHING!

"The LORD Gives, and He Takes Away"??

"The Lord gives, and the Lord takes away.
Blessed be the name of the Lord!"

Remember that verse? It's found in the 1st chapter of JOB.

Job is speaking here … it's Old Testament, folks. 
Job was a rich man.

Satan had designs on him, he was looking for a soul to enslave.

Job was tested by Satan; Old "Slew-foot" went to talk to God, and asked

permission to attack Job, God's servant. God said, "OK, but you can't

take his life." So, his oxen and donkeys were stolen. His servants were

slain by the sword. Fire came and burned up his sheep and more servants.

More enemies came and took all his camels. And slew more servants.

His sons and daughters were all killed, due to a house where they were

feasting, collapsed upon them. Only the messengers survived to tell Job.

How many calamities? A bunch. Two enemies, The Sabeans and

the Chaldeans, fire and wind also.

To add insult to injury, Satan came back, wanting to do more damage.

So God allowed satan to attack his physical body with boils. Funny

how God didn't "take" Job's wife, who was not much help then!

And to make things worse, enter "Job's Friends" … 3 wise guys who

thought they knew exactly what Job was going through … and why.

This incredible story unfolds like a many-act play, and too many

"scholars" forget that there is so much prose, so much opinion, and

even so much "spongy-thinking" in the book … It is a faithful record

of what was said. BUT it isn't all what God said! That comes much later

at the end of the book, when God Almighty shows his true nature and

glory to Job. And Job gets restored.  BIG TIME.

I'm sure you have heard sermons … doctrines … and even songs about

"The Lord gives, The Lord takes away". Do you believe them? Is it part

of your 'core belief system'? If so, it will affect everything you do, all that

you read when it comes to God's promises.

You see, Job prided himself in his knowledge of God. What he lacked

was understanding, and some wisdom. God takes him up as an ultimate

example, to purge him of PRIDE. And maybe FEAR. With a mentality

like "If he slays me, yet will I praise him", it all sounds noble and good,

but God Almighty wanted to take Job deeper. Deeper into HIM.

Job wasn't written to give us instruction on how the Lord deals with

his people. It is a lesson on humility … getting to really KNOW the Creator,

not just "hearing about him". Also, it gives a clue on what goes on "behind

the scenes" in the spirit-realm. Job had no clue what was really going on.

It took a little prophet, "Elihu" a wise but  younger one who shows up, just

in time to instruct Job. It's then, and only THEN that God comes to Job

and answers Job in the whirlwind.

YOU MAY KNOW SUFFERING

You may know suffering, or those close to you who have suffered

various things. I have suffered pain, loss and different things in life

that have brought sadness. I can tell you right now … I am sad for

your pain, but God Almighty didn't bring it! No, He is The Giver of Life:

"For the Lord God is a sun and shield; The Lord gives grace and glory;

No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly." (Ps. 84:11)

God Almighty is a Giver … not a Taker. He isn't an "Indian-Giver" either.

There are so many places in the Bible that declares the goodness and

benevolence of God and his desire to really bless his children, to lavish

upon them gifts and even bless them extravagantly! But, you have to

believe that God is like this. You can't listen to reLIEgion and tradition

and what your friends, family, grandma or whoever says, that goes against

what God says about Himself! He ain't lying, and he's no respector of persons. 
What he has done for one, he'll do for another. You can claim

favor with God,  you know.

When I was "found" by The Lord Jesus, I gave my whole heart to him.

Later, there was a time when I gave him some other things, things from

my past. You know, he gave them back to me! I gave up "rock'n'roll" and

then, full circle, I have come, and now I do rock for Jesus. Anything that

I may have had in my past, which was not "evil" he has energized and put

into motion, so that, in a sense, I never really lost anything good. 
He didn't take it! He simply redeemed it and put it to use in His Kingdom. 
Like my talents in editing and graphics … grammar and writing … and music of course. 

All those gifts have been redeemed and greatly improved.

But … I'll tell  you what he HAS taken away from me.

STUFF I NEVER NEEDED

He took away the following:

*Strife

*Confusion

*Separation

*Loneliness

*"SIN"

*Darkness, Wrong Thinking

*Effects of Curses

*Poverty

*Other "things" blocking my spiritual growth!

Anything that didn't belong there, he has taken away!

Why? So I can "walk in the Light, as He is in the Light."

Plus, with the "taking away", he has added so much more.

With the advent of deliverance ministry and anointing, my

world with Him has opened up exponentially … not because

I'm anything "great" but totally because of Him!!
To God Alone Be The Glory.

And so, if you wanna keep singing that song . . .

"You give and take away

You give and take away

My heart will choose to say

Lord, blessed be Your name"

(Blessed Be Your Name by Matt Redmon)

. . . with the Truth of God ringing in your heart . . .

then I would be just OK with that :D

That's NOT The Only Answer!

I was reading in a magazine from a very well-known ministry recently (Sorry, not dropping any names!) annnnd … I noticed that they were giving an answer to a question regarding this individual's success with applying The Word to their life, or rather the obvious lack of success thereof.
The answer was simple: Just refer back to Mark 4, the parable of the sower, and see if your life is reflected in the part about the seed being choked out, by the cares of this life. The answer went on: You must focus your faith on The Word, confessing, believing and standing on it, without being distracted by things in this world that could prevent the Word from working, including whatever "satan" might throw at you.
At first, it seemed like a good answer. Good passage to draw from, good thing to do, you know, re-check yourself and all.
But then … there was a moment . . . I envisioned the letter-writer frustrated with the answer. It was as if they were saying back: "I've done all that. It isn't working for me. I feel like I'm beating my head against the wall here, and your answer seems 'hollow'. Perhaps I need to express my situation here. Perhaps I need to share what ALL I have done to believe … maybe you're right, but it just doesn't feel right! Something's missing. Something's afoot. Something doesn't feel natural."
Oh, I could relate with this scenario. I know because I have seen it dozens of times, ministering to individuals right where they are and watch their frustrations at how things are not working for them.

I'm not suggesting that the Word doesn't work. I'm not suggesting that the problem is "with their faith" or lack of faith.
I'm talking about real people who have tried real hard to get a victory, doing all they know to do and BOOM … nothing.

I've got an answer to this.
It has come by divine revelation, I believe, and I am humbled by knowing it, but also feel an obligation to share it. This revelation has come after over 20 years of observation, study and personal experience. I believe that there is another answer.
The best way to communicate this is with A LIST:

* Curses (spiritual blockers set up for someone to have defeat)
* Issuances (something negative decreed to also block growth)
* Assignments (being targeted by dark forces who think you a threat)
* Witches (secret operations designed to stop the purpose of God in someone's life)
* Witchcraft (networks of dark forces against someone)
* Masonic constructs (secret pacts set up to cause failure)
* Mind-control programming (secret works super-imposed upon an unsuspecting soul, in their subconscious realm)
* Generational curses (sins & evil perpetrated in a bloodline which have never been broken off)
* Principalities & Powers (dark forces, "demonic" elements)
* Secret Vows
* Secret Demonic Dedications
* Usurpation (the enacting of another's will over God's will)

And believe it or not, this may only be a partial list!
And as I have said before, "It ain't always 'satan'!
Even with the subject of curses, in some cases, folks have cursed themselves! Taming the tongue in order here.
Freemasonry alone, if found in someone's bloodline, has a plethora of curses that have to be renounced & broken, very insidious work, that network is.
(Strongholds, family doctrines, core belief systems that have been erected and protected over time and through the ages ... these all can get in the way as well. Not to mention pride, stubborn-ness, idolatry and spiritual ignorance.)
All of the dozen operations listed above, can have a deleterious effect upon someone's faith, life, etc. … and each one of these operations is designed in some sneaky way, to block, prevent, hinder, halt or otherwise thwart the purpose of God in a believer's life! Some of the operations listed above, work specifically in the area of blocking the hearing from God Almighty and blocking the effectiveness of God's Word.
How?? You may ask.
I thought that nothing can stand in God's way.
TRUTH.
However … if there is a problem with receiving a victory, or traveling on to the next level of prosperity, or getting a release into further ministry, or a problem with healing or anything dynamic you may be believing for … then there HAS TO BE A SOLUTION. Something's in the way, and it ain't God!
Plus … in some cases, the powers of darkness have claimed "dibs" on someone's life, and calling all the shots, have pushed God out. They have legal grounds to operate. This cannot be ignored and it can't be removed by just a lot of "rebuking".

This is where Deliverance Ministry comes in. And yes, it is also a work of Calvary, a finished work of Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Deliverance anointing can discover the area where the problem is, unravel the mystery, uncover the lies and secrets and BREAK THE CURSES off the lives of those who have been so sorely affected! The gifts of the Spirit, "the spirituals" are necessary in solving the puzzle of all the defeat. And He, the Holy Spirit, does! He works! He can go to work on the problem and deliver the ANSWER. "By the name and Blood of Jesus", we always say when we are addressing a curse or issuance or whatever is standing in the way. THAT is how we Break The Curses. And binding & casting out the evil elements of the powers of darkness, after they have been exposed and dealt with … this is what brings the breakthrough.

So … to that letter-writer, who thought the answer they were given just wasn't cutting through … Cry out to God, and he will show you what is in the way. He will give you The Answer.
And even if there is no deliverance minister nearby to help aid in the discovery, God Almighty, Yahweh Himself can come down and blast you out of the problem because he has MORE THAN ENOUGH GRACE to do so.
Yes, I say … Cry Out to Him. And then, I see the Word working in your life. I see your Success in Life. I see you on your way to your Miracle.

If You Have Kids, They Ain't Your 'Property'!

Children are a gift, blessing and heritage from the Lord God Almighty!

They are given to us, for a time, to raise and nurture and guide here, on earth.

I am astounded how many parents do not know this.

I would like to line up all parents that believe that their children are

a "burden" … or troublesome … or a "pain" … or their "property", something they own!

I want to line them all up in a room and say this to them:

"Your Children are NOT your property!! They are not something to control!
You do not "own" them … they are granted to you, on loan from God! Your
job is to bring them up in the way 'they' should go; i.e. according to their natural 'bent'.
So many of you want to fashion your children according to your image, or make them
all the same, if you have more than one. I tell you, right now,  STOP IT.  You cannot be
more wrong, in  your thinking, beliefs and actions."

GIVE ME A BREAK

You cannot expect your child to be successful if you are constantly cursing them!

I know some parents … all they say about their child is constantly negative, negative

to others they talk to, and even to their face! And … if you are putting SHAME on  your

child because they don't perform the way you think they should, then the shame should

be on you.  You can't demand that your child do or be a certain thing if  you have never

taught them how to do something. Nor can you train all of your children (if you have more than one) to be all alike! Children are different, just as different as DNA for each living thing. And you cannot put your failures on  your child, like they are your scapegoat.

Just stop.  Stop and go back to Proverbs. Get some wisdom.

I realize that parenting is tough, I am a parent.  It is an "on-the-job training Job". You

can even use resources such as James Dobson, or Dr. Spock, or even Dr. Phil and still

mess up. I know. Quite frankly, I myself have made some mistakes. I think in my later

years as a parent I have wised up and corrected some things. Not all of us have had

glowing & glittering examples to emulate. Me personally? I knew that I didn't know

what the heck I was doing, so I cried out to God … He made me into a "Father", and

I like to think a 'good' one. Not perfect.  NO.  Only He is a Perfect Father. But I know

that we can learn from Him. So, I have been learning, and I'm not done learning. I

even get taught things from my children. You should listen. You might even learn

something from them, too. You can learn things about your children by observing

and caring and just listening. You can learn some things even about your self.

STOP THE MADNESS

If you're one of those parents that like to get periodic portraits of  your family,

then 'good for you'.  If you provide well for your family,  with food, clothing, shelter,

et al, then 'good for you'. But I'm not offering applause to you if you're just "all about

Image". You may dress up your family extravagantly just in order to parade them

down to the front pew every Sunday at church, LATE.  I'm not impressed.

If you pretend to love your kids, but are a "closet alcoholic" and beat on them,

I am most certainly not impressed! Stop the madness!  Get some help. Your children

are blessings from above, not for your target practice or experimentation.

It's amazing that I have run into this "I own you" philosophy lately, especially in

two particular families, that I am familiar with. You know that attitude:

"I brought you into the world, and I can take you out, too!"

No, you see right there, that is where YOU ARE WRONG.

That is the wrong attitude to have. And it is not just an attitude to some.

It is a mindset. A doctrine. A whole entire belief system, handed down through the ages.

*Sigh* -- that makes the whole thing a "doctrine of demons" and it is a STRONGHOLD.

Fortunately, God loves you all anyway, if you are this way, and he can deliver, change,

transform you and FORGIVE you!  I wonder sometimes if your children forgive you.

Some of them … maybe. Every day they may forgive … you. If you are constantly abusive, they may actually still love you! I don't know, everybody's different.

What I do know, after 35+ years of counselling, these children need therapy.

They have been traumatized.

They will need HEALING.

The amazing thing is, they probably do still love you.

What have you done? Have you "nurtured them in the fear & admonition of the Lord"

or have you raised them to be like soldiers with no feelings … or have  you stolen their innocence, and broken their spirit?  I bet some of you have  children that are just GEMS … precious treasures right in  your home! They need to be affirmed, encouraged, applauded, cheered, instructed, treated like "spirit beings" that are HUMAN, NOT  like animals going to a slaughter. Children are not animals anyway!

They are little versions of  YOU, which someday, will grow up to be ADULTS.

Do you want them to be monsters? Do you want them as "damaged goods"?

Or do you want them to turn out Beautiful?  3 cheers to all of the great parents
that know that their children are already amazing and continue to nurture 
them onto success in life!

Watch your words. Watch your thoughts. Wash your brain with God's super-soap if you

need it. Then … WATCH your children become ALL what God intended them to be.

Little walking, breathing, living MIRACLES.

THE PROPHET MUST RISE UP ONCE AGAIN.

THE PROPHET MUST RISE UP AGAIN.

Francis Schaeffer said:

If there are no absolutes by which to
judge society, then society becomes absolute.
 
Francis Schaeffer, a christian philosopher and author, produced a book & film series in the 70's known as How Should We Then Live?  In my estimation, the man is a prophet ... it seems he could look into the future and see what our civilization could or may become; and in this case, our own Nation.      

 "PC" today means  "political correct" ... it is an unwritten "national policy or mindset" that pervades many Americans and even some foreigners. It dictates what we can say, think and even act toward the populus or even how we address certain groups, politicians etc. It is a type of "thought police" or even "word police", and there is always somebody present to rebuke you if you get out of line.  
As you may have guessed, "PC" is the absolute of the day. It has replaced Free Speech.
Political Correctness has become the new "truth".  TRUTH is no longer an accepted commodity. Facts become blurred in the melee of public opinion. Just as the Bible warns
they "call evil, good and good, evil". It is truly the perversion. Twisted.

What society determines to be "the truth" is up for grabs.
It is administered by coercion, forced embarrassment and the use of slur names, such as "racist", "misogynist", "Islamophobia", "homophobia" and other seemingly "new" trigger words.

Although some folks with "clout" (position, platform, wealth, notoriety, following, popularity) might actually be able to get away with "speaking their mind" -- the rest of us, well, that's debatable. Better watch your P's and Q's buddy, or "I'm telling on you!"     

All of this mindset crept up on us ... it definitely has been adopted by many, as if it's another Constitutional guideline or something. You may try to reason with people who are so swayed, to no avail. They have accepted the brainwashing, drunk the kool-aid, swallowed the blue pill whole. Logic escapes them. Wisdom and understanding is alien to them. And rulers who are tyrannical can hypnotize the masses into believing almost anything; the method is really quite easy.
A president or politician or king can speak several partial truths, make several promises that entice the populus and THEN, when the timing is right, LIE. Yes, LIE. It's as if people start thinking, "Well, he accomplished these great things, and he fulfilled these promises, so why not believe the rest of what he says."  Hitler controlled the masses;  in-between applauses and cheers (during his speeches),  he would resume this "hypnotic stance", remain silent until the noise subsided, and then he would continue with his speech. It was very effective, and very powerful. By that time, it didn't matter what the man said or did, he could "do no wrong". 

In order to break through the hypnosis effect, you have to get folks' attention! They have to see and hear something shocking, because they probably aren't watching the same news sites you're watching ... oh no, they're not paying attention to all the wrongs their favorite leader is doing, no matter how atrocious. They are convinced that everybody is a critic, and their man is innocent. Treason? Not from their man.     

“If we as Christians do not speak out as authoritarian governments grow from within or come from outside, eventually we or our children will be the enemy of society and the state. No truly authoritarian government can tolerate those who have real absolute by which to judge its arbitrary absolutes and who speak out and act upon that absolute.” 
Another quote by Mr. Schaeffer. When anyone or everyone in the nation, of the citizenry of a nation, becomes wise to the deeds of such a tyrannical overlord, then watch how those "leaders"  are treated!
IF we will not bow down to their idols, we will not back down, and NOT BE AFRAID, then they (the tyrants) may actually turn and fear US.  But ... we must have resolve. We must treasure Freedom over security; we must act as one man, and be united.  Right now, our own nation is divided ... because someone divided us. Pitted us against ourselves. Perhaps We The People could actually unite, in our heart of hearts, to believe and agree and remove the evil rulers. We do have the right to do so, you know. We must refuse to believe the voices of the naysayers, the fear-mongers, the PC police. We must stop being distracted by every "false flag" event, every minor issue, every pathetic "cause". 

We have a known LIAR running for president, who also with her husband, have a long list of horrendous deeds in their wake … and the sheeple blindly follow her. We have a rich man running for president, who has never done the atrocities that politicians in government have done, and he gets blamed for riotous people who try to block him from his goal! We have blacks against whites, blacks against white cops, and "Black Lives Matter" and "Safe Place" students on campuses running around spouting social re-engineering doctrines as if they are truth! We have a president who gave Iran 150 BILLION dollars, so that they can fund terrorism. Forget it if you think they are going to use nuclear power for good, because they won't. And our Congress? They do nothing about our president, who has a list of treasonous acts a mile long. "Can't touch this!" And they probably won't. All because of those two funny letters:  P.C.

What is the answer? PRAY. Pray for your neighbors, pray for your friends, perhaps even your "enemies", for their eyes and ears and minds to be open to Truth and Reality. Pray for mental strongholds that block understanding to be torn down. Pray for hearts to soften so that pride stops getting in the way, for Truth to make way.   Start speaking the truth in love, and expose the evil deeds of darkness. Pray that evil men will be exposed and removed from power. Pray that their "protection" will be removed from them, so that righteous men can rise up and help take them down!
Remember: Just because a man gets a lot done, it means NOTHING if he is doing all the wrong stuff!!  As far as government goes, inept and do-nothing rulers aren't worth anything either! It is time to "clean house" up there in Washington, and we can't be afraid of the agents or companies or even "shadow governments" that try to block the change from coming. It is time for prophets to rise up again, and SPEAK OUT.  Speak forth a clear and concise message of TRUTH that cuts through all the crap!! Righteous men and women from the ekklesia should rise up and speak a timely word, without fear and without harsh judgings. Prayer Warriors should also jump in and address the forces of darkness, bind them and cast them out of D.C. and the rest of our nation!
We are in a War. But ... The Resistance . . . is HERE and NOW.
The "silent majority",  The "We The People" can all wake up to a brand new day, when this darkness that has so pervaded and invaded our great land shall once again be banished for good!
