Prophetic Word June 24, 2009

Those who do not have a relationship with Me will not be able to stand.

Submit to God.  Resist the devil and he must flee.  I resist for all those

who cannot, nor have the power to resist…children, babies, the weak,

the sick, the lost, the helpless, the homeless, the fatherless, the faithful ones

who are weary.

Be of good cheer.  I AM the Lion of Judah.

I AM the Rose of Sharon.

I AM the Song in the night.

I AM the All Seeing One…

The ONLY ONE who died and rose again and sits in the heavenlies

and laughs at the plans of the enemy for I know the plans I have for you,

to prosper, to bring to an expected glorious end.

In 1 John 2:16 we read about the three main sins of life…

Filed under: Uncategorized — Frank Thompson @ 3:23 pm

In 1 John 2:16 we read about the three main sins of life.
• Lust of the flesh
• Lust of the eyes
• Pride of life
These are the main categories of sin, from which all other
subcategories of sin derive.
Not that I am being sin conscience, or anything like that. Its just if
we know, or are informed we won’t be ignorant to any of the schemes of
the devil.
Remember that Jesus was tempted by the devil on these same three points.
Matthew 4:1-9
• Lust of the flesh, after he (Jesus) had fasted forty days, the
devil said turn these stones into bread.
• Lust of the eyes, then the devil took Jesus to a high mountain and
showed him all the kingdoms of the world.
• Pride of life, if thou be the son of God, jump down off of this
high place, for God shall give his angles charge over you.
The reason these are the main sin categories is because we are a three
part being.
Spirit, soul, and body.
The sin of pride, affects our spirit.
The sin of lust of the eyes, affects our soul.
Lastly, the sin of lust of the flesh, affects our bodies.
Please refer to the teaching titled, First Things First, as it refers
to protecting ourselves by the armor of God.
My desire is to gird up our loins with truth, and polish up our shield
so that we as members of Jesus’ body will be able to stand, and not
fall, live and not die. For greater is the Most High on the inside of
us, and there be more with us than there are against us.
Remember when Jesus was tempted by the devil, His weapon of choice to
drive the devil away was the word of God.
And He said, for it is written, thou shall not tempt the Lord your God.
So get to know the word of God, like the Gatorade commercial says, is
it in you?
If its not in us, then we won’t have anything to draw from when the
enemy comes to tempt us.
The sword of the spirit is the word of God.
Be in the Lord and the power of His might.
Lean not to your own reasonings,
Trust the Lord, and in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will
direct your steps.

First things first

Filed under: Uncategorized — Frank Thompson @ 3:07 pm

First things first.
Finally my brothers, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His
might.
Again, this is not about our power or strength, but His. That for me is
a great relief and comfort.
Second, put on the whole armor of God, that we may be able to stand
against the methods of the devil.
So that we can have victory when we come into any of the methods,
schemes and plans that the devil would try to use to entrap, enslave or
ruin our souls.
Because it may seem that we are at odds with our spouses or kids maybe
even our boss or a coworker; when, in fact, we are at war with
principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this
world, and against spiritual wickedness in the heavenlies. (this is a
list of rank in the demonic realm)
Now this armor of God, seems to have five pieces of defensive armor
and three pieces of offensive weapons.
The word from God to us says, if we will put on the whole armor, we
may be able to withstand in the day of evil.
So, the defensive armor is for our protection, let’s see what that
list consists of:
Truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation.
So when we clothe ourselves with these things, they will protect us in
the times of temptations, and trials.
That is good news. OK now, how do we do this? How do we put on these
things to protect ourselves?
Romans 13:12-14
2 Corinthians 6:4-10
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
1 Thessalonians 5:6-9
2 Peter 1:5-10
These are just a few ways that if we will heed the ways of the Spirit
we will be more than conquerors in Him, and overcoming sons of the
Most High.
We have been infilled with the Spirit of God, if in fact you have been,
to be able, through Him, to walk NOT after the flesh or the ways of the
flesh, but to be led by Him, and be led by the Spirit of God.
Please let’s remember this one thing,
that we are a triune being, spirit, soul and body. We are truly all
three of these things.
We, first and foremost, are a spirit that is housed in a physical body,
and we have an intellect or soul whereby we reason.
When we accept the grace of God and receive His salvation, our spirit
is regenerated right there on the spot.
Our minds, our intellect, our soul needs to be brought into the
subjection of the Lordship of Jesus, by the renewing of our minds, by
the washing of the word, on a continual basis.
This is where we start to have our issues and problems as humans.
Trusting in ourselves and not leaning on the Lord for His guidance.
This is where I get into trouble.
Trying to figure everything out, not trusting the leading of God, but
trying to figure it out and doing it my way. That is trusting in the
arm of the flesh.
Oh my, have any of us in our own strength, produced an Ishmael, not
the promise?
We could write volumes on this subject from now until the return of
Christ, please see in the archives, the article, Now therefore there is
no condemnation.
And then we have this tent of our body, that will one day, all by the
timing and will of God, will put off mortality, and put on
immortality. If we can see the significance of our body in reference
to the things of the spirit, we may get a real good look at the ways
of the spirit and how it will ultimately affect our way of thinking
and our way of acting.
Its not that the devil is trying to cause us to lose our salvation,
although I think that may be possible, he is trying to keep us in the
flesh, so as not to be led by the spirit. He knows if he can keep us
in the flesh and reasoning for ourselves, we will continually produce
Ishmaels. But if we, through the Spirit, do mortify the deeds of the
flesh, and submit to the leading of the Spirit, we then, through God
will produce the promise of God, and walk in the victory.
It is a prideful thing to try and figure it all out on our own.
Remember, God resists the proud and He gives grace, or the ability to
walk in His guidance.
So… back to the beginning, first things first.
Be strong in the Lord, and the power of His might.
Lean NOT to your own understanding, but in ALL your ways acknowledge
Him, and HE will direct your steps.
Walking in His leading, He and He alone will cause us to walk in the
promise.

Prepare (A mighty rushing wind)

Filed under: Prophetic Words, Uncategorized — Frank Thompson @ 2:57 pm

A mighty rushing wind, prepare for Me says the Lord, step out
into Me says the Lord, where signs and wonders abound I’m in you and
you’re in Me, together we will and can change history.
Do you hear the sounds? sounds from heaven, sounds you’ve never heard
before.
You are worthy, look no more to the flesh. It stinks. I see the good and
evil and I tell you the good outweighs the evil. For where sin
abounds, grace much more abounds. See all that I’m doing and will
continue to do in and through you My children says the Most High.

Romans 8:19-22 Manifestation of the sons of God

Filed under: Uncategorized — Frank Thompson @ 10:31 am

Romans 8:19-22;
For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the
revealing of the sons of God.
For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because
of Him who subjected it in hope.
Let’s stop right there a moment and ask a couple of questions.
First who subjected what to what, and for what reason.
The verse says that he, subjected the creation, (the creation not
being willing) in hope.
In hope of what?
In verse 19, for the revealing of the sons of God.
God the Father is the one who did the subjecting for a number of
reasons.
One, that he subjected it in hope. Hope for a future event. Man
couldn’t do that and the evil one wouldn’t.
Two, God first did the subjecting to corruption, through man at the
fall, then it will be Him who brings about the subjecting to the
glorious life through man at his revelation of who he is in God.
Why? We will answer that question in one minute. Let’s move on.
Because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of
corruption into that glorious liberty of the children of God.
For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth
pangs together until now.
Until when?
Until the revealing of the sons of God.
What is suppose to happen for creations sake at the revealing of the
sons of God?v.21 It (creation) should no longer be subjected to the
bondage of corruption, but be delivered into the glorious liberty of,
or by, the children of the Most High.
What does that mean for creation?
As it is in heaven, so shall it be on earth.
What? No death, or decay (corruption) but glorious life.
As far as we are concerned, what was the very first thing God gave man
to do on this planet after his creation?
Tend to the garden.
Then before the fall, and in heaven, do you think the vegetation was
or is subject to decay? No.
The leaves on the trees, and the grass in the fields do not, and did
not go into hibernation.
We as the attendants of the garden of God, have the ability to say to
these trees, you now are no longer subject to decay.
As I step into my rightful place in God, as a son of God, stand in the
power of His might, that it may be revealed through me, that we can
say to this planet you shall no longer be subjected to corruption, but
you, now shall be subjected to the glorious liberty you were suppose
to have all along.
Cast not your leaves upon the ground, you are freed from the bondage
of corruption, and are delivered into that glorious life of liberty.
If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes.
Mark 9:23
Therefore I (Jesus) say to you, what things you desire, when you pray,
believe that you receive them, and you shall have them. Mark 11:24
The revealing of the sons of God comes when the sons of God realize
who they are in God, what He has given them, and why He has given it.
I don’t think by any stretch of the imagination we the church have an
idea who we are in Christ.
I do know one of the principles we need to realize is that when we
speak, things happen, first in the spirit realm and then into the
natural realm.
We are created in His image and likeness. He is our Father.
When my sons go and see people that know me, those folks know they are
my sons by the way they walk, by the way they talk. They are a copy of
me, they are a representation of me.
So should we be a copy and representation of our Spiritual Father.
Since we were not able to be raised in His house under His influence
like our sons were with us, that is not a reason not to be like Him.
He did leave us letters to let us know what it is that He is
passionate about, what it is He desires for us, and how it is that we
should walk here on earth.
He is such a good Father, He even gave us examples how it is that we
can walk and talk like Him, and have the same results that He does.
He desires that when we go and see people that know Him, they will
know that we are His sons.
Better yet, when we see people that don’t know Him, they can see Him,
and love Him also, by our love for Him, through touching their lives,
like He would if He were here in front if them.
Remember what the Lord said to the man who had leprosy when he asked,
Lord if you are willing, you can make me whole, Jesus simply said I
Am, and touched him. God wants us to touch peoples lives weather they
are clean, or unclean, with the same care and compassion as He does.
In the book He left us so that we can study it to see how He walks and
talks, the very first thing He shows us is the power of His words.
God said, and it was so.
As I see it, the Father spoke by faith with the knowledge that what He
said would come to pass.
His faith mixed with action (speaking) produced creativity.
He has such a confidence in His words that they will produce, He tells
us about it over and over again in His letter to us.
I am really strengthened by His comment in the book of Isaiah 55:10&11
For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and does not
return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth the bud,
that it may give seed to the sower, and bread for the eater: (here it
is) so shall my word be that goes out of my mouth: it shall not return
to me void, but IT SHALL ACCOMPLISH that which I please, and it SHALL
prosper in the thing where I sent it.
That is the revealing of the sons of God, that they get the same
results from their words as their Father does.
They finally know what it is they are to do, also what it is they can
do, and they operate in it.
May I ask a question here?
Do we think for just one moment that when Elijah called fire down from
heaven he was wondering if God was going to hear him?
Or do we think that he was wondering if what he said was going to come
to pass?
Remember this is the man that was eventually translated alive into
heaven not seeing death.
I would say no to both questions. Why?
He had the revelation and knowledge who he was in God. He also knew
what kind of authority he had as a son of the Most High.
This too is our rights as children of the Lord.
Not to be arrogant, or prideful about who we are to the point of
error, but to have a genuine care and concern for the creation and the
created beings on this planet as our Father does.
I don’t think that it is a big deal that The Father has given us
dominion over the elements. When Jesus awoke in the boat, and rebuked
the storm, He said to his men, “oh you of little faith.”
And they marveled that even the elements obeyed Him.
I’m thinking though by His comment to them of having little faith, He
thought that they could have done it just the same.
Genesis 1:26- God said let us make man in our image, after our
likeness: and let him have dominion over the fish, birds, cattle, and
over ALL the earth, and over everything that walks on the earth.
Joshua’s faith caused even the planetary system to stop for an entire
day.
Now he had a plan to accomplish the will of God. So it was needed to
defeat their enemies.
But how about King Hezekiah’s sign from God, the sun going backwards ten
degrees on the sun dial? Isaiah 38:8 That is about six hours.
So, we do have times when the world and the planets have obeyed the
voice of men, we must remain humble in the sight of our God, and
remember that our faith in Him can cause the suspension of His natural
laws.
So in conclusion, we as sons of God have at our disposal, and as our
grafted in birthright, the ability and confidence in our Father to
speak as He speaks, and get the same results He gets.
Jesus said, if thou have the faith as a grain of a mustard seed YOU
CAN SAY to this mountain be thou removed to another place, it shall be
removed, and NOTHING shall be IMPOSSIBLE to you. Matthew 18:20.

2 Corinthians 10:3-5

2 Corinthians 10:3-5
For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war after the flesh.
(Ephesians 6:12, for we wrestle not against flesh and blood)
(For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through
God to the pulling down of strongholds.)
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalts itself
against the knowledge of God, and bring into captivity every thought
to the obedience of Christ.
Thoughts unchecked will produce imaginations,
Imaginations unchecked will produce strongholds.
Proverbs 23:7- says, as a man thinks in his heart, so is he..
The word heart in this scripture, in the Hebrew means; appetite,
desire, pleasure or would have it that way.
We really need to keep a close eye on our emotions, our thoughts, and
even the things we think on, because it appears that it will
eventually lead our thoughts into imaginations, and imaginations will
lead to strongholds, that will take an actual war to dig them out, to
rid ourselves of them.
We need to set our affections on things above, not on the things of
the earth.
Because where your treasure is (those things that we value) there your
heart will be also.
The Greek word heart here means: your thoughts, feelings, or mind.
We have enough troubles in this life that we don’t have any control
over.
That’s why we need to be conformed to the image of Jesus.
So when those things or trials do come, and they will, we will glorify
our Father by the way we react or not react.
So why give any room for thoughts in our minds, where we do have
control, to those things that will only build up walls against the
Holy Spirit’s leading.
Hebrews 12:1-3
Wherefore seeing we are surrounded about with so great a cloud of
witnesses, let us;
1. Lay aside every weight- lay aside whatever is hindering our
Christian progress.
2. And the sin that so easily besets us- the sin that easily sets us
back are the ones we are addicted to, whatever is our weakness.
3. Run with patience the race set before us- Greek for fight,
conflict, race, contention or struggle.
4. Look to Jesus the beginning & the end of our walk of faith.
(Philippians 1:6-being confident of this one thing, that He which has
begun a good work in you will perform it until the day the Lord calls
you home.)
5. Consider Him- look into the perfect law of liberty which is a
picture of Jesus’ life, study Him and His ways, remember His struggle
against sin for our sakes, lest we become faint hearted in doing good.
Finally brothers and sisters:
Whatever things are true, honest, just, pure, lovely, and of a good
report; if there be any virtue, or praise worthy, think on these
things. Philippians 4:8
Therefore on the positive side of meditation & thoughts, we can build
up strongholds in our minds against the thoughts that are not obedient
to the mind of Christ.
