Short Thoughts, Part One.
As you have most likely noticed, a lot of my posts are graphic, image-intensive. Meaning that I use a lot of graphic images to convey my message to you. I enjoy creating them.
These are graphic images from older posts. So today’s repost is about them and some of the information that goes along with them. Unfortunately, if you're listening to this post via the Substack app, well then you're going to miss a lot.
The Majority of writers in this world are introverts. These are the people who are willing to slow down, ponder, and look inside to find the real truth. Most are not good at parties, and they will often find excuses to avoid them. But if they go, they will often move off to the side and observe people’s actions, seeing things missed by the people who love to live in the chaos of the moment.
Got a question concerning battle tactics. If you were the Devil, would it be better for you to oppose the power and moves of God directly? Or would it be wiser to get your leaders out in front and have the people follow them? Many of the names on this list are considered to be the fathers and mothers of the Charismatic (titles given by men and not God)
Some are good, some are bad, and others are learning to do what is right.
Our headship has been off. We have been on a 40-year detour since 1985.
Headship is huge; we need no one other than Jesus. When the Body walks away from all the plastic leaders, I feel big things will change.
When I found this image of a Buffalo covered in frost at Yellowstone, I thought of this old quote. The strong are willing to walk alone for the sake of the cause, having few friends. The weak gather friends like cordwood, turning many of them into “Yes-men” so they feel justified in their actions.
It is in this community of the weak that Hard Times grow. slowly driving away the Lost, Hurt, and Lonely that Jesus came for. Some find the strong and are willing to stay close to them out of the need to feel the strength. But most just wander off.
I feel this… deeply.
Another great quote that needed an image. This is the truth of those broken and hurt by the system. We all need time to work through the process to rebuild. The end question is, are you willing to get up and try again even though everything hurts? Considering the law of sowing and reaping, are you willing to live with the possibility that if you move forward to help others, the Holy Spirit will bring healing to you?
The Son of God, Jesus, who is our Messiah, understands more than we know. Can you trust the author and finisher of our faith to do what he said he would?
A tongue-in-cheek splash of modern truth. Rick has often said that Morningstar is a target-rich environment. So, I took him up on his comment. But truthfully, the board has stopped him several times in the last few months that I am aware of from bringing former, fallen leaders back to the stage.
This is the long-term fruit of many doctrines created in the last thousand years. Protectionism is a way to avoid the messiness of the world. Despite what well-intentioned authors wrote, the fruit of these ideas and doctrines limits the Biblical command to GO.
Charismatic Witchcraft is now more common than the Charismatic faith of the Apostles. 40 years ago, a bait and switch happened, and we have all been the worse for it.
What you possess can possess you. Have a garage sale and get back to living a better life.
Have you considered, have you pondered the implications of what living in a Royal Family on Earth really means? Jesus is our PATTERN. He is a priest in the order of Melchizedek, NOT Levi. Learn the difference; it will change your life if you walk it out.
