I was up very early this morning seekingrepparttar Lord (0230 hours). Around 0630 hoursrepparttar 126440 Lord began to speak in my spirit regardingrepparttar 126441 following. 1. He owns everything. 2. He has entrusted everything to His Son, Jesus. 3. Byrepparttar 126442 authority of Jesus’ name andrepparttar 126443 power of Godrepparttar 126444 Holy Spirit we are allowed to exercise dominion onrepparttar 126445 face ofrepparttar 126446 earth and “possessrepparttar 126447 land.” 4. The devil has stolen from God’s children because he is a thief (John 10:10), and God’s children are comfortable but not satisfied in being ripped off. 5. God is releasingrepparttar 126448 “Joshua generation” to reclaimrepparttar 126449 land and take backrepparttar 126450 spoil fromrepparttar 126451 hand ofrepparttar 126452 enemy. 6. This is a new day where God is transferringrepparttar 126453 wealth that belongs to Him but has been stolen torepparttar 126454 oikodomian(s).

The children of God, who have demonstrated themselves faithful with God’s trust, will be rewarded beyond their greatest expectations. Those, even ministries that have mismanaged and swindledrepparttar 126455 Kingdom of God through opulence and greed are going to miss this round of blessings. But,repparttar 126456 faithful are going to receiverepparttar 126457 greatest of God’s blessings to date for one reason.

This isrepparttar 126458 crux of my document so what I’m about to say must take precedent over everything stated thus far. God is getting ready to transfer His wealth torepparttar 126459 faithful stewards of His Word who will thus release it to moverepparttar 126460 Word of God acrossrepparttar 126461 face ofrepparttar 126462 earth.

This material blessing that’s coming is not for bigger bank accounts and personal hoarding. This wealth is to empowerrepparttar 126463 sending ofrepparttar 126464 Gospel aroundrepparttar 126465 world through many and various mediums. Are you up forrepparttar 126466 task? If you’ve demonstrated faithfulness over your present calling, you are going to be promoted over night as it were. Get ready. It’s coming. Stewards—unite! Yourepparttar 126467 oikonomian ofrepparttar 126468 Kingdom walk blessed.

Keeprepparttar 126469 faith. Stayrepparttar 126470 course. Jesus is changing things, all things for His good.

Prophecies of The End Times

Written by David Nelmes


Continued from page 1

There may be evil and misguided actions performed by people inrepparttar world, but still atrepparttar 126439 heart of most men is a genuine desire to help and be helpful, to love and be loved. We confuse our emotions and our abilities at times...leading to hostilities and misunderstandings, but overall we would rather have peace. Even though it's not immediately helpful, most of our fighting is because we believe it's a necessary step towards achieving peace. Granted, we might not have figured out how to achieve peace...but it's still what we truly want and we will continue to work with it until we finally figure it out inrepparttar 126440 ages to come.

Think for a moment about recent stories ofrepparttar 126441 kindness, love, and compassion thatrepparttar 126442 worlds people demonstrate, especially after tragedies when our needs are greatest. If man has this capacity and desire to help...if man has this capacity for compassion...if man has this capacity for forgiveness...if man has this capacity for kindness...if man has this capacity for good...if man has this capacity to choose love over hate, how much more do you think our Father...our Creator hasrepparttar 126443 capacity to do these things? Other than what centuries old beliefs have told you, can you see in yourself today,repparttar 126444 light that is a real part of God and can you see that this light can not and will not ever, ever pursue anything other than love and peace. Anything that says otherwise or does otherwise is not in line withrepparttar 126445 desires of God.

Prophecies of The End Times are not from God. God is not looking to destroyrepparttar 126446 world and punish us. God would never do anything to evoke fear. Absolute love casts out all fear...so God cannot be Love and then do things that would create fear. Those two concepts cannot exist atrepparttar 126447 same time. These view points come from a total misunderstanding of God as being vengeful and angry as opposed to being loving and forgiving. So many ofrepparttar 126448 things written about God, especiallyrepparttar 126449 things that are centuries upon centuries old, were written from a frightened and limited perspective. It's time to let go of these primitive beliefs and start seeing God asrepparttar 126450 loving and forgiving god he really is.

History sometimes has a tendency to repeat itself because there are lessons we still need to learn and certain events will occur again and again until we choose to see things differently and change what we are being and doing. The concept that Jesus will return to establish a worldly kingdom has already come and gone. The ancient belief was that Jesus,repparttar 126451 Messiah, would come to establish a new government...and when he made it apparent that it was not his mission to create a physical world government...everything changed and he was killed. Today, again many are waiting for Jesus to come and create an earthly kingdom, a primary purpose ofrepparttar 126452 existence ofrepparttar 126453 Book of Revelation, and it's not going to happen because his mission is a spiritual one, not a physical one. Because we often forget we are spiritual beings temporarily interacting here, we often confuse Gods goals and desires for us as being physical, and they are not. Gods goals and desires for us are spiritual and they have nothing to do with anything physical.

Spiritual things are eternal...physical things are not. God is eternal...he created us eternal and he, Jesus andrepparttar 126454 Holy Spirit will continue to work with us for ages and ages to come until we also choose once again to only pursuerepparttar 126455 eternal and then to forever leave this physical place where everything dies and nothing is eternal. God didn't create this mess we are in, so he's not going to do anything to extendrepparttar 126456 time we are here, but is doing everything possible to give usrepparttar 126457 tools to shorten our time here and finally come home to him.

Meanwhile, due torepparttar 126458 concept ofrepparttar 126459 end times andrepparttar 126460 world being destroyed, many lives are possibly being wasted and tormented with thoughts of no future and thoughts of pending wars and tribulations...all leading up to living in a state of fear which is totally out of line with Gods desire that each day be peaceful, joyful, forgiving and loving...with no regrets fromrepparttar 126461 day before and no apprehensions of tomorrow to mess up your today.

Know this...God is not unaware of you. God loves you beyond anything ever imagined. God is waiting patiently for your heart to be open to walk through life without fear...and then you will truly hear him and feel his guidance. While you are motivated by fear and subjecting others to fear, it's difficult for you to properly interpret what God is saying. For you, as with John, God never stops communicating and never stops telling you things that will help your growth, but any and all fear you embrace will blur and taint what you are hearing, making it difficult to see Gods true desires clearly. Under these circumstance, you may think you have a world of truth, but all you will have is a word of truth surrounded by fear, to be delivered through fear, accepted with fear and followed because of fear. Set aside fear and don't accept anything that even hints at it and you will be open for rivers of truth to flow into your being.

Live this...Since God is love, simply ignorerepparttar 126462 stories, perceptions and rumors created and spread through fear, because they are not from God. God is working with everyone at all times, so just be patient while you andrepparttar 126463 people ofrepparttar 126464 world work through being fearful and be happy to know that God has not forgotten a single one. Pray that we all open our minds more and more each day to hear God's truth and set aside man-made truths. Just rest in peace to know that God is patiently working with everybody. Extend your love and peace as well and our time here will be shortened...not with end times of death and destruction andrepparttar 126465 creation of Gods physical kingdom on earth, but with end times of everybody simply leaving this place and returning to an eternal existence with our creator in his spiritual kingdom that always has and always will be.
