Are You a Pastor? Are You for Unifying the Brethren or Dividing Them?

Armor-Bearer — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 20:44:00 GMT

Grace to you Pastor! What a time to impact your city! In these ever-increasing days of tumult, what would be a better opportunity to jump on God’s band-wagon for unity and brotherhood? This is not a new doctrinal catch-phrase that has recently been thought up in the heavenlies, and tossed down to the earth in new revelation. It has been the purpose for God’s children all along. Allow us to remind you that there are numerous excerpts of scripture that mandates us to live, treat each other as, and to be one. What is the purpose for driving the denominational wedge between your brothers? Do you not see that it is as demonically effective as racism is and has been? Here is but one of the life-giving nuggets found in our source for hope and direction—the Bible. I am certain each of you can recite and/or quote many other verses that will fit nicely with the one below. Is not the cup of thanksgiving for which we give thanks a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one loaf, we, who are many, are one body, for we all partake of the one loaf. ~1 Cor 10:16-17 What was the purpose of our forefathers, predecessors, or even your determination to be separate from the body? Is there a reason your town, lead by you and other men, has chosen to oust the truth of “brother” and embrace the evil and loveless, verbal and silent mantras of “those people.” Are we so blindly naïve to believe that what we have to give is better than what someone from another color, background or denomination has? Is there not one Jesus? Is there not God of Creation? Is there not one Holy Spirit? Were we not all spiritually birthed through and because of love and purpose stemming from all three of these distinct, yet same persons? Do you not want to be remembered as one who builds, sows, feeds and loves? Do you want your tombstone to read: he reached, he planted, he touched and he changed lives? Will you be named among the ones who were faithful to keep all of God’s holy Word—not just a percentage? If you were standing before God today, what words would you hear coming from the throne? The Great Awakenings I and II did not happen because of men who were afraid to stand. They came about because of God working through men who did not shy away from engaging in the truth. We need men of God who will stand up and be brave! GO! “Find Your Adventure,” “Fight Your Battles” and “Save Your Beauty.” Don’t just be a man, be a godly man!!! Show your maleness. Will you, are you able to stand against those who have you by the throat and other vital areas, and say “NO MORE, I WILL DO WHAT GOD HAS CHARGED ME WITH!” “HE OWNS ME!” He is mine and I am His; thus, I will hear great words being uttered from His throne.” How are you leading your elders, deacons, church body and armor-bearer (if you have one) in the fight to overthrow the churchy tyranny? Are you working to tear down the old and rebuild the new? God is in Jerusalem. It is time to rebuild the walls and put the gates back in. Would you like to share my loaf and wine? Get fully in the fight! Your brothers ATKM

Texoma Group (from Vernon Texas) Protests Porn Industry

Armor-Bearer — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 13:41:00 GMT

Reported by: Erica Rosales-KFDX News Channel 3, Wichita Falls Saturday, Jul 25, 2009 @06:24pm CST James Foster All The King's Men Ministry "When we hear horns go off, we shout hallelujah" The Jericho trumpet was replaced by car horns Saturday morning as protesters held a 'Jericho March' outside of an adult video store along Highway 287 outside of Vernon. Ronald Godwin March supporter "It's very widely accepted and the reason is because the morality of American has gone down the drain. We have no morality so anything goes you name it, we can do it." Members and supporters of 'All The King's Men' ministry say they're taking this stance because they don't think the adult industry should be supported one day longer. James Foster All The King's Men Ministry "It's not really what I say is right, it's what the Bible says is right. God declares that thing that destroys the family or the unity of marriage or children is wrong." March supporter Ronald Godwin says his life was almost destroyed because of his addiction to pornography. "I was addicted to pornography, had about 8 gigabytes of porn on my computer, I was looking at it about 6 to 8 hours a day. I used the guise that I was just looking at it for educational purposes, and because of what I was looking at, the type of pornography, it continuously got worse and worse and deeper and deeper." The men on this march say their stance against adult entertainment isn't about passing judgment, it's about showing a united front to help others come forward. James Foster All The King's Men Ministry "That store over there... We have nothing against the store. We have nothing against the people in that store, but we do have a problem with what the store represents and so we want to see people's lives changed." The group knows they're in for a long battle, but they plan to continue protesting however they can until the walls of the pornography industry come tumbling down. The manager of Foxxxy's Adult Video said he had no comment on the issue. For more information on 'All The King's Men' and the group's mission against the pornography industry, contact them at 940.839.8987 or 940.553.4199

Route 66: Your Journey to Where?

Armor-Bearer — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 01:03:00 GMT

Traveling on life's most famous road (Rt 66): You have to know that it is not about "THE DRIVE": the wide-open roads, interstate 40, and LOTS of people with their fast-paced speeds. It is about "THE WALK." That journey that is filled with much to see and do. It is a long trip, is it not? In God's purpose and plan, "THE WALK" has everything to do with how NARROW that road is, and less to do with "THE DRIVE." It is not about "THE SCENERY": You know, the looking around, taking in the view and snapping some really nice pictures with your NEW 'disposable' camera. What are YOU looking at, or for that matter, looking for? Are you searching for some of God's wondrous creations? How about some of that good-ole ambition--mixed in with the emotional and mental "lust of the world?" Did I mention the people we have our eyes fixed on? The ones who--if we are not careful, will lead us into that bar ditch face-down. It is however, about "THE WALK." Those steps that take you toward the "MARK" of Christ. "THE PRIZE" that we attain at the the end of the "NARROW ROAD." Take it from several people you know who are on the "NARROW PATHWAY", the "SIGHT-SEEING" is much better on THIS road. The pace is a bit slower, and it gives us plenty of time to see what God has positioned at the "REST STOPS" for you to enjoy. Lastly, it is not even about "THE DISTANCE." It may be a long way to the destination you have mapped out or punched in on MapQuest; often times those drives are empty, boring and lonesome, because they lack God's vision for your life. Once more, it is about "THE WALK." It is about the PURPOSE and DESTINATION. It may seem like a loooooong way to the end of the narrow road, but when you arrive, it would seem like it was a SHORT STROLL down LIFE's HIGHWAY to Heaven's Gates of pearl, with golden streets leading up to the throne--in the New Jerusalem. Ah, Route 66. Which one are you on?

Turning on the Light Causes Roaches to Run!

Armor-Bearer — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 01:55:00 GMT

There was a custom Paul and Silas had, it was a really 'bad' habit of going to the synagogues on the Sabbath. Say it isn't so. They EVEN did this when they were traveling. I know this may rub some of our hair backwards, but what would happen to our personal, family and THE CHURCH's growth when and if we put this practice into play. OFTEN! Since you have some time to think about that, I will add this... We would grow up and be of some use for the Kingdom's purpose. Loving the people to Jesus. In Acts 17, Paul and Silas were on one of their many "road trips" spreading what was to many of the Jews heresy (worthy of death) and to most of the Gentiles an unexpected jolt of life! Hope! Hope that there would be something for them too instead of always for the Jews. A hope that reached far past the "intellectual brain power", and grabbing the very deepest part of their being. They were hearing about Salvation, and His name is Jesus. "Hey! Wasn't that the dude that was killed not long ago, and rumor has it that He is alive---AGAIN?" Really?! "Tell me MORE." Can you hear them asking these questions, and the Jewish leaders and others sticking their fingers in their ears? Paul and Silas had just left the town of Thyatira, where they were beaten beacuse they were sharing the Gospel in the synagogue. Say it isn't so! They ended up in prison after the beating, and STILL they praised God. After being freed on the basis of their 'citizenship', they wnet on to the next town, Thessalonica, where they "upset the religious apple carts" -- AGAIN, by telling them about the REAL King, Jesus. Can you imagine what could, or dare I say, would happen if/when we decided to tell it like it is and not be concerned about getting hit with verbal switches and belts, or even rods and boards? Where would we be if our mission was really about the One who sent us, rather than about the ones who pay us? When we get obedient as pastors, priests, sisters and brothers, elders and deacons, and DECIDE to speak Jesus instead of OUR own doctrines that have been and are still being birthed from OUR denominations, some of the people would sit up and listen. Others will accept Jesus as He is, and become Free and His. You know what? There will always be those who want to beat you and throw you in jain for speaking the truth. Choose the truth! It is safer to be FREE in Jail with Jesus, than in PRISON walking around with man. Pick one!

Obedience: Rebuilding God's Jerusalem I (Jeremiah's Letter to the Captives)

Armor-Bearer — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 13:33:00 GMT

The Word of the Lord was sent by the "pen" (may have been bamboo-Egyptians, bird feather-600 A.D., or the ivory, metal or bone stylus pen-Greeks) of Jeremiah, the faithful prophet, to the residual of God's people taken away as captives to Babylon (nation of confusion). Like the Jews, confusion and disobedience to Walk in God's Ways, Laws, Precepts, Testimonies, Commandments and Statutes, Judgments (Psalm 119:41-48) and Word, has lead away us as Christians to distant lands away from God's place(s) of promise. Where is that place? Where He is. Where His presence is. Even in captivity, His people are required to do great things in His name--for His fame. He still requires us to impact the people and the place where we are sent or taken (see Jeremiah 29:1;4-7). Our responsibilities range from small to great! However, they are not weird, or hyper-spiritual. They are everyday life actions in which God has empowered us to accomplish. One of the coolest tasks He gave us to do was/is to "seek the peace of the city...", "pray to the Lord for (peace) in it" - for you SHALL inherit THAT SAME peace." How many of us have not had that calming presence within, or for that matter, surrounding us because, we have not taken the time to seek God for the 'place' where we are. Instead, we are only looking, scheming, and planning OUR way to get out of that city! Are you. I WAS! Remember... The Jews had 70 years! They were not moving until God said it was time. What about you? How much time do you have where you are? Blessings!

My Innertermoil

Armor-Bearer — Thu, 26 Feb 2009 04:59:00 GMT

This is a page out of my journal a few years ago that I would like to share with everyone. I believe there are those who might currently be in that place, or have already passed this point. Either way, it is something that is never far from my thoughts as I continue to become broken before the Lord. I hope this will help someone find encouragement and strength. May our Lord Jesus Christ bless you--I pray. Lord we want to see Your face. I remember when I first became a Christian, this was a very exciting time for me. Can you remeber when you gave your heart to Christ? I can remember the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th... Wait wait, wait. You're asking, "man what happened to you?" Well, in my opionion, it wasn't a true conversion. Sometimes, I think about those days, of how naive and stupid I was in my so called wisdom. And yet even now, I realize how minute my thoughts and capacity for knowledge was. I know nothing, ya know. I don't have a clue to what Gods plan is. We do not have a clue to what Gods plan is. Wisdom! So many times we pray for this, and we do so freely not even understanding what we are praying for do we? I mean think about it, sit down and really think about what you are asking God for the next time you pray for His Wisdom. Do you not know that we cannot handle or even fathom what wisdom is? We are so delicate that the very presence of God will kill us; and we want Him to grant us wisdom. What does it mean to worship God? What does it mean to be a Christian? I know there will probably be some who don't agree with me on some of these things, but this is just how I feel about where I am in my walk with God. Please take no offence to my words; but if it makes you bleed then maybe the Lord's speaking to ya. Okay, back to worship. How do you worship? Do you only worship God when you are in the Church, and the feel-good music is going? And boy, this puts you on cloud nine. It makes you feel good right? I know. I know. "The Lords in this place" Right? Sometimes I wonder if He is or is this just a place where we go and we feel good about what we are doing, and others look and say boy they love God. Now I'm not doubting anyone's love for the Father, I'm just going by my own soul searching. The Word says, to "examine yourself daily." I'm getting there. Boy, am I getting there; because I dont want there to be any doubt where I stand before God. What Happened?! Did you catch that? The Rapture (the great catching away) just took place and here i am typing on this thing instead of worshiping God and getting my heart right huh? I wonder, where is my walk at? Do I really love God? Am I truly committed to serving Him? You know, the other day I was in the plumbing shop and the guy behind the counter (I've known for years) and you know what? He doesnt have a clue that I'm a Christian, or what it means to be a Christian. Man, am I worthless? Did you hear me? I'm worthless! While sitting there and listening to the filth coming from his mouth, I said nothing. Did you hear that? I SAID NOTHING! So what does that make me? I'm a Christian and no, I didn't partake in the conversation, but I stood there and accepted it didn't I? Here is someone I know is more-than-likely going to hell, and I said nothing. but I'm a Christian right? Bull! This is the junk I'm talking about. I cry out Lord, Lord, send me. Send me Father, I'll go. Bury me because I'm useless in this life. I'm no more a Christian than the next guy. The only difference is--I know Jesus and yet, I cant even do what i'm called to do. Where do you stand? As for me I'm worthless. I think about David as I tell this story. Let us look at the things he did. The Bible says "David was a man with a heart for God", and yet he took Bathsheba, committed adultery with her, and had her husband killed to try to hide it. Not only that, he directly dissobeyed God with the census right? Well, when we thought about David when we were growing up, we saw how he was lifted so high in the story with the giant. Correct? They didn't tell us in Sunday School that David did all of these terrible things. I mean a murderer, adulterer, lieing and defying God! This is huge, yet the Word says he had a heart for God. This is the key! When he messed up, he truly repented and didnt look back. I'm learning--so bear with me God. I'm learning. Thank You for Your mercy Father. Where do you stand in your walk with God? Are you seeking Him in everything? Are you truly living the life you should? I know I dont do the things I should be doing. Father, right now I thank You for Your mercy, dear God. I thank You for what You are doing in our lives. Lord, I lift up my fellow brothers and sisters all over... Not just on this site, but world-wide Lord. I pray Lord, that You would always show us our faults Lord. I pray that You would always keep us humble Father. Smack us around when we mess up Lord. Don't let us get too far, and if it requires a leash like an animal, then put 2 on me Lord. God, I pray right now that You would put a renewing in each and everyone's heart today. Lord, I pray Father that everyone would fall on there faces and repent for their sins Lord. I pray that they would realize their ways of wrong and the deceit that satan has blinded them with Lord. I pray Father that they would examine themselves daily Lord. Every second of every day Lord. Father, You are Lord, You are God, and we praise You oh Lord. Father we magnify Your name, oh Lord, and we lift You up above all others. Father, I pray right now that Your blessings would be on everyone Lord. Father, I pray that Humility would touch my brothers and sisters. Lord, I pray that they would seek You like never before God! Stir up their spirit. I pray these things in Jesus' name. Amen. God is moving in the midst. His spirit glides above the water's edge. As the sun rises and the fog lifts, behold His creation and the Beauty that is before you.
