October 19. 2023An amazing, and in my opinion very accurate word.I attended Morningstar Ministries for a number of years.It started when I got their Journal that was mailed out once a a month and in those days, people were really contending for the Lord as in those days, the 90’s, we felt He was very neededin our lives and society. Many were getting their “downloads” and were having visionsand visitations. Vineyard’s Music was leading many of us into His Presence and we were meeting Him there! Miracles werehappening and prophetic words were coming to pass, on a personal level and a country and global level.You can’t fake being called if you are, and many WANT to be!So you have those who try real hard and those who are sbumblingand working to figure this out, and others just looking for what evertheir gift is! And, we have those who want to monetize everything.Some get really good at that but it’s still up to us to discern how much of any and all of this truly is of the Lord.We see the professionals and the gifted. But when it’s endorsed by the tangible presence and notable dynamics of the LORD, people get excited and then everyone wants to get in on the show!Some are treated good and some are treated terribly, and when mistakes are made, some are treated horribly. Some things werejust not what they were raised on and some things, that may beGod, are just pressured heavily, testing them.But let me share that God’s Word and TRUE Spirit will not fail you!Easy? No, not always, but at times things will unlock your soul intonew dimenations that cause you to hunger and really grow and mature more in the Lotd.Cliques can be everywhere and some don’t mean to be, but they are sharing similar experiences often. But they are not God’s “last word.” It just seems cutting edge and people want to press in to see the good changes He promises and that seem to be manifesting to some degree!I’m sharing all that because I have been there and I am proud ofsome of thie things I have been involved in that brouth the Kingdom of God forward. People of different backgrounds can get togetjer and find His joy, they become more educated andenlightened and new thoughts can change their lives.The problem or challenge is when it bcomes the (false) “have’s “and “have nots” and wrong hindering judgments are made. Butwhat you must learn is that God is jealous for His special place with you and when some others are pulling you away, He gets jealous! And when He does, not much will go right.It’s okay, He will see you through, if you value that “Presence” timewith Him. Not only that, He has a calling that He wants you to fulfill, AND He wants you to see things the way HE wants you to see them! You will find, as time passes, that this is happeing to many over and over.I spent quite a bit of time with different ministries and learned a lot over those years. God has no plans to leave anyone out!And there are a number of people and ministries that I don’t agree with or even understand, but you can pretty much tell over a bit of time and experience if they mean well for you, while you are learning for yourself how to judge and assess your own personal growth and ministry.God is evaluating your “little life” in this great might big world andhistory! He knows what He is doing! So work on that.All that to say, is that I know there are the highs and lows. But today I heard Chris Reed’s message and got a big witness that itwas (first of all) Biblical, and on target in the Spirit. It was a messageon discerning the end times and I want to encourage you to hearit! It’s powerful. Truth is.I didn’t agree with the second message so much by another manbecause I didn’t hear a doctrine I could agree on. Doesn’t mean the brother is not nice and doesn’t have SOME truth, I am just not intoguessing and “fantasizing” things. I think the devil can get a biginroad there. I used to want to wish things, but sound doctrine is what will get you where you want to go. I wish I didn’t have to bringthat up, but it’s the mssage that follows Chris’s message.I met Chris before he came to Morningstar and felt that he was areal nice gentleman. Paul Cain was a friend of mine and he told me that Chris’s prophetic gift worked a lot like his did. Some thingsyou just know and you test it to confirm it. For them it’s strong on words of knowledge. It’s very wrong to judge and compare others on what GOD has given them, but it is comforting and helpful to learn more with someone you can relate to, especially when it comes to the supernatural. Israel is in a time of war that is affecting many of us, including out nation, as I write this.I think you will find Chris’s message an anchor for many of you inyour soul. The Word is and it is written! Stick with the Word and you won’t get off track but will easliy find your come back road if you do get distracted. Don’t depend on fantasy but TRUTH!God will explain it! :)Chris’s message starts at the 48:44 mark, which may help you if you are time constrained. I’ve been to many good conferences there even though the Lord has moved me into pushing forth now, more than just recieivng from others. HE DOES expect you to share with othersin significant ways, because someone did that for you! Many, in fact!But He will still lead you to good manna and fresh pasture to keepyou growing and learning and healthy! Life IS a challenge and we are meant to help! This will help!Message starts at 48:44Be blessed!
