Be Equipped! Pastors/Teachers equip the body of Christ. They are caregivers and have patience as they deal with the day to day struggles of of the church and fallen humanity. Apostles lay a foundation and are used by Holy Spirit to teach/disciple/ mentor the body. Watchmen are called to sit on the wall and sound the alarm as they intercede for people and circumstances to bring heaven to earth and. Prophets speak out as they hear the voice of God to bring about change in the atmosphere speaking about the Kingdom.

Before I write this... I PROMISE... I am in a GOOD MOOD.

Have you ever thought about all the movies that have dead people walking around like zombies? I am not a fan, but I think it is a prophetic insight to what God is speaking to the body right now. I believe God wants to bring resurrection life to the body of Christ (the ecclesia).

Have you ever heard someone say, "I am waiting on the Lord"? I have been guilty of saying these very words from time to time. We pray, we fast, we cry out and there is no answer. It is as if heaven has become closed like brass and we feel as if no direction comes. We wait and wait... Some people never step out into their full potential and destiny God has for them because they are in the continual posture of waiting to hear from heaven.

Faith is the substance (confirmation, title, deed- that which already belongs to you) of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen (perceiving as real fact). Hebrews 11:1

Where are the morals and standards we were raised with? What has happened to right and wrong? Why has good become bad and bad become good? There has been a major shift in moral standards in the past few years not only in the culture but also within the church. The demonic influence of political correctness...where we are more concerned with offending others than speaking truth has led us down a path where there is NO repentance and now we have a generation who believes incorrect and has a general acceptance of sinful behavior.

Matthew 24:10-12 (NKJV) says: 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

This is the generation we live in...

Yesterday was a good day. As I was speaking with Karen, in the Spirit I saw the Lord smiling at her.

You see, God takes delight in her just as He takes delight in you. Why? Because you are unique and His creation in progress. When He spoke the world's into being He said "it is good." He delighted in everything He had fashioned. He is pleased as He moves us from Glory to Glory!

When I looked at my beautiful wife, I thought about God delighting in her, when I spoke what the Lord said about her, she was humbled to the lowest degree. I saw joy warm her heart as she heard the encouraging word from the Lord.
