As I pondered what I had seen I began asking the Holy Spirit to specifically reveal to me what I was supposed to understand from this encounter. I proceeded to research horse-mounted knights and their armor. I also studied Ephesians 6, which is the armor of God chapter. (While participating in the vision I recalled the Ephesians verses about the helmet and sword, and knew I was to pursue it further.) I began to sense for myself that trying to see where to go from here with my natural eyes will hinder me and cause me to be unprepared for the battle ahead; that watching and waiting for His promises to me and my family to come to pass with my natural eyes will only delay them because I need to move forward into the unseen with eyes of faith, boldly and confidently knowing I am following the Victorious One into this battle. The silver armor I was wearing represented being clothed with the knowledge of God and His redemption. The sword in my right hand indicated His authority and the power of His revealed word. The struggle with my left hand pertained to my weakness, which is to be rightly positioned in order for God’s strength to be demonstrated through it. The white horse represented a work of God’s spirit through man in purity, truth and righteousness awaiting those He has been preparing. It also indicated definitive warfare. The Lord had spoken to me earlier this week about the need to “go up a level” in preparation for the season ahead.

Too many believers are living by and for what they see with their natural eyes. It is paramount to understand verses 10-19 in Ephesians with the our eyes of our spirits, because there is necessary revelation contained within them. We have come through a season of preparation for holding onto our sword of the Spirit, the powerful word of the Lord, and moving forward in faith, following Jesus as He leads us, His sons and daughters, in establishing Kingdom dominion on the earth; “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, in earth as it is in Heaven” (Matthew 6:9-13). In that position, we keep our focus on Jesus, and are now being called up as His elite warriors into the ensuing battle to uphold Kingdom truth and the principles and values this nation was founded on. We are being called up to be a voice of action on behalf of the weak, defenseless, helpless, and the general welfare of all. This call begins within the very regions we have been placed, and advances outward to the specific states and nations He is calling us to. This call is going out to every major mountain of society: government, media, education, arts and entertainment, business and economy, family and church.

What does this look like in our daily lives? It begins and ends with love for the Lord and love for others. The powers and principalities we wrestle with and Satan himself are incapable of operating in love. Therefore, when we operate with the supernatural love of Christ Jesus as the goal, the Ten Commandments are no longer religious outdated rules, but are rather a guide to protecting and manifesting His supernatural in and love through us to our Heavenly Father and to others. On a larger scale, it means this coming November, we become a voice with our vote for good stewardship and fiscal responsibility, character and integrity, for life, and for the family as covenanted and ordained by the Word of God. We move out to take a stand and to assume leadership positions that promote truth to again be revealed in this nation; revealed to all those “…whose minds the god of this age has blinded…” (2 Cor. 4:4, NKJ).

In 2 Timothy 3:16, it states “All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right” (NLT). For far too long people have been trying to pick and choose verses and interpret them according to the times we live in; even voting as to whether they are relevant. There is nothing in the Word that gives us permission or direction to do so. Either we believe ALL Scripture is the inspired Word of God or we don’t, and we are blessed to believe it by faith. We don’t get to rewrite it according to our own agendas. We were not the ones chosen or called to write down the very Scriptures that have stood the test of time. We are rather privileged to be the ones chosen and called to give testimony to the truth contained in Scripture during a time in history (His story) where the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of Light will engage more violently than we’ve witnessed before in our lifetimes. We can no longer compromise the truth of His Word, of who we are called to be, and expect to be blessed. We are the ones chosen and called to manifest as the sons and daughters the earth is groaning for (“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 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; because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.” (Romans 8:18-22, NKJ)

We must become a voice who will visibly stand up in love at all times for the rights of: 1) the unborn, 2) orphans and children who are being victimized and trafficked, 3) the truth and preservation of healthy families, and 4) stewarding responsibly all we’ve been given, including character, integrity and purity. This is only the beginning, but we have to start doing what we are called to do and being who we are called to be. These issues are not political issues…they are issues of life. We are called to bring Heaven’s solution to the problems now facing so many on the earth through the love and shed blood of Christ, specifically and strategically to a world in need, and deceived by a world-wide anti-Christ spirit, which is a spirit of death.

His Church IS being built. His house of prayer (Matthew 21:13a) IS awakened to the realization of being in the midst of a battle against principalities, powers, rulers, and spiritual hosts of wickedness and darkness in the heavenly places, whose only goals are to kill, steal and destroy. His Kingdom, which is about love and abundant eternal life, WILL advance on the earth as it is in Heaven.

Where do we even go from here? Ephesians 6:1-9 says, “Children obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. Honor your father and mother, which is the first commandment with promise: that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth. And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in the training and admonition of the Lord. Servants (employees and those not in a position of leadership), be obedient to those who are your masters (employers and those in positions of leadership) according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in sincerity of heart, as to Christ; not with eyeservice, as men-pleasers, but as servants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, with good will doing service, as to the Lord, and not to men, knowing that whatever good anyone does,he will receive the same from the Lord, whether he is a slave or free. And you, masters (employers and those in positions of leadership), do the same things for them, giving up threatening, knowing that your own Master also is in heaven, and there is no partiality with Him.”

In America, we daily walk out encounters within the roles contained in these verses. If we choose to follow in faith these words of instruction, we are putting into action “loving God and loving others”; the two greatest commandments result in blessing and life. If we are struggling in any of these areas, we can “repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand” (Matt. 4:17). Repent means to make a change in the direction we’ve been heading. It’s time to make a major change in the direction this nation and the church has been heading. The resultant fruit of where we’ve been heading should be all the convincing we need that it’s time to reverse directions. We are called to “pray always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints,” and to “open our mouths boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which we are ambassadors surrendered to His leadership and purpose, that we may speak boldly as we ought to speak!” (Ephesians 6:18-20, NKJ)

The Church is to be His hands, His feet, His voice and His Light invading the darkness and decreeing truth. Jesus is the only way, the only truth, and the only life; He is the only answer to every problem on this earth and for every individual. There is so much more to be revealed through the obedient life of Christ, and His powerful sacrificial shed blood, death and resurrection. It’s time to awaken from our slumber, complacency, compromise and busyness with things that are not eternal. Let’s put on our armor, take up our sword, mount up and prepare to ride, mightily carrying and demonstrating the supernatural love of the Lord Himself, and the power of who He is in and through us – His Body – His sons and daughters. Let’s move out by faith, following His victorious leading into this very real spiritual battle between darkness and Light (the real battle has never been between people, cultures, political parties, doctrines or ideologies – liberalism vs. conservatism or humanism vs. Christianity vs. Muslim, nations, etc.).

Heaven is anxiously waiting to rejoice over multitudes of invaluable treasures of lost and hurting souls coming out of darkness and into the Kingdom of Light. It’s time to advance into the darkness of the enemy’s camp to take back ALL he has stolen from the Kingdom of Heaven. It’s not only time to advance, but it’s time to lead the charge in truth! We have been prepared with faith that rests firmly in the Truth. The Truth we move out for is Hope; Christ who lives in us, the only hope of glory! And the greatest of these we live, breath and move for is Love made manifest. “And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love” (1 Cor. 13:13, NKJ). May the light of His truth dispell the darkness in every nation, and especially in the nation we have been called to be awaken!


The Kingdom of Heaven has always been about love. God created us to partake of His love. He sent His only Son to die for us out of love. This love is a love beyond anything humans are capable of in their own strength. This love is the love 1 Corinthians 13 reveals. This love is an unconditional agape love that manifests through Jesus Christ via the Holy Spirit in us alone. This love is able to freely manifest when we truly understand what Jesus Christ accomplished on our behalf and who He alone has made us to be…sons and daughters of the Most High God.

This love is meant to be expressed throughout the earth in word and in action. This is how the Kingdom of Heaven advances and takes dominion on the earth. This love was meant to be expressed in all relationships. This love is what truly changes individuals and nations.

We need to be a Kingdom people who wrap our hearts, minds, wills and emotions (our spirits and our souls) around His love, receive it and the healing that it brings, and extend it to every place and to every one the Lord sends us. We are to express and manifest this Kingdom love in daily interactions and in the very giftings and callings the Lord has place within us.

With regard to the arts express’d, this love is to be manifested through music – vocally and instrumentally, through dance, through writing – poetry, literature, etc., and through visual arts. When we use our position in Christ to be His hands and feet with His love for all mankind as our goal, and the giftings He has placed within us to release greater revelation of His love every where He sends us, the Kingdom of Heaven finds a resting place on the earth…the Kingdom of Heaven takes dominion on the earth…the Kingdom of Heaven advances on the earth.

Walking out this love is how the greater works that Jesus spoke of manifests on the earth (John 14:12). Walking in this love is how the Bride is being prepared for His return. This love is how we are to BE in the new season that is upon us. Walking in a revelation of His love is the only way we will be able to make it through the season that is now facing us.

The Lord has been preparing and walking us through many circumstances throughout many years in preparation for such a time as this. The bottom line and the highest goal has always been, and is now more than ever before, a greater revelation of His love moving out across every region of every nation throughout the earth. It’s always been about the love of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit, their invitation of love to us since Adam and restored to us through Jesus Christ, and it will always be about loving Him and loving others with His love alone.

Regardless of our gifting and calling, His love must be at the center. We are called to release His love through our identity in Him, and through the unique giftings He’s placed within us. As we surrender to His love, seeking His heart and will, He begins to change the atmosphere around us. It’s time to watch Him take the nations as His inheritance through a people who have taken hold of a revelation of His love, and have surrendered to it manifesting through each moment of time we’ve been given to walk this earth.

When the supernatural love of Jesus Christ is able to manifest through us, His sons and daughters, supernaturally each day, the Kingdom of Heaven is truly at hand! “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:13

Mark 12:30-31, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul (will and emotions) and with all your mind, and with all your strength…Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no greater commandment than these.”

Blessed Are
The words of this song come from Mark 10:16, Matthew 5:3-12 and Luke 6:20-26.

Lord, Your heart is breaking for the children…the hungry and the poor who cry in shame. Your Spirit is awakening Your people, who’ll tell them that You know each one by name. You’ve heard their cries for freedom. You’ve seen their hurt and pain. You love them as a Father and Your Son died for their gain.

Blessed are the poor and needy. Blessed are the ones who mourn. Blessed are the gentle and lowly, the Kingdom is yours. Blessed are the hungry and thirsty. Blessed are the pure in heart. Blessed are the persecuted, the Kingdom is yours.

Blessed are the merciful. Blessed are those who work for peace. Blessed are those who seek Your heart, sharing Your great love throughout the world. Blessed are the children. Your heart is breaking for them. Blessed are believers when they share and every child receives.

I Am
This song was inspired by the words Jesus spoke in the Gospels.

I see every face on every single child that nobody wanted; the world threw them away. I see every tear on every single face of every broken heart needing someone to look their way.

I Am the only answer. Don’t believe the lies they say. I Am the only hope you’re all crying out for this day. How did we get to here and how do we get to where we need to be?  Jesus is My Name.

I see every child, hungry, sick, abused, crying for someone to take away their pain. I see every child empty and alone fearing that no one cares or knows their name.

I Am the love you’re looking for. I Am peace and so much more. I Am your way, your truth, your life, I Am. I Am the freedom that you seek. I Am your strength when you are weak. I Am your shelter from this storm…I Am.

How did we get to here and how do we get to where we need to be?  Jesus is My Name. Do you hear My voice? Do you know My Word?  Jesus is My Name.

Every Child is a Gift
This spontaneous instrumental song was inspired by Psalm 127:3. The message of the song is contained in my new book, also entitled, No More Orphans! Every child is a God idea, and is therefore a good idea. Every child has been sent to Earth as a gift, and as a carrier of gifts the world needs. Every child is invited to receive our Heavenly Father’s greatest gift of love and eternal life through the sacrifice of His only Son, Jesus Christ. The gift of Holy Spirit within activates and empowers both the infinite treasure of Christ Jesus and the specific gifts He has placed within each individual. These gifts are to manifest and be carried as an expression of Heaven on the Earth.

For the Orphaned
This song passionately expresses instrumental intercession on behalf of everyone who has been abandoned, rejected, discarded, or orphaned by tragedy. The spontaneous music reflects the daily questions and the unknowns in being orphaned: wondering if anyone cares, of survival, and of existence itself. It also carries the promise of Jesus in John 14:18 to not leave us as orphans.

“Does anyone see me? Does anyone care about me? I have dreams of being wanted, of belonging, of being loved. There are so many like me needing to know hope, needing to know purpose, needing to know we have a future, needing to know Love. Does anyone see me?”

For the Poor
This spontaneous instrumental song came from meditating on Luke 6:20-21. Jesus promises the kingdom of God to those who are poor and hungry in this present age. The music reflects the heart of the Father and His promise to fill them according to the riches of His eternal Kingdom of Heaven.

For the Sick
This spontaneous song was inspired as intercession for a precious family standing in faith on 1 Peter 2:24 and the healing of their husband and father. I dedicate this song to the Ted Landmark family, and give glory and honor to our Heavenly Father for this family’s overcoming testimony of faith. Ted is now eternally healed in the presence of Jesus. I pray this song will comfort and heal the hearts of those who must stand strong in faith and walk out the unseen.

For the War-Torn & Persecuted
This spontaneous instrumental piece was inspired by 2 Corinthians 4 and Philippians 4:7. As intercessory music, it reflects the tension, the monotony, and the perseverance of victims who daily battle living in the midst of war and persecution. It is also a prayer for His peace in the midst their storms.

For the Unborn
This spontaneous instrumental piece is wholehearted intercession on behalf of the sanctity of life, and contains a layer of sound intended to reflect life in the womb. For the Unborn represents being a “voice” for those who cannot speak for themselves. The Lord promises covering and deliverance from evil in Psalm 139:13 and Galatians 1:4. Until His heart and will on behalf of these precious and innocent ones manifests on the Earth, a sound must cry out.

Isaiah 61 for the Abused & Slavery
The melody of this song comes from the Hebrew translation of Isaiah 61:1-2, also decreed by Jesus in Luke 4:18-19. Christ in us IS the hope of glory. We are given His Spirit to carry His anointing and set the captives free. The word of the Lord never returns void, and always accomplishes what He sends it to do. This song intercedes for the release and manifestation of the purposes of Heaven on behalf of those who daily contend with the victimization of abuse and slavery.

Uri Harel and the Center for Biblical Hebrew has developed a program entitled, Bible Music Writer. His ministry  has been given a revelation of mathematically converting the letters of the Hebrew alphabet from any Scripture passage to music notation, thus literally releasing the musical frequencies of the spoken Word into the atmosphere. I creatively added the harmonies, rhythms and form to the melody of the converted Hebrew Scripture, transforming the spoken Word into a musical Word.

Not Forgotten
As I have prayed and played spontaneously for all of the fatherless on the Lord’s heart, I hear His Spirit saying, “you have not been forgotten.” In Luke 12:6, Jesus says, “Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs on your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.” Psalms 56:8 gives assurance of our Heavenly Father keeping record of all sorrow and collecting every tear in His bottle. Because of the good news of this revelation decreed in His Word, this spontaneous song reflects a light-hearted dance as the Father sings over each of His precious children.

There is only one answer, regardless of what government, the media, our educational systems, business and economy, the arts and entertainment industry (including sports), family, and yes, even the church, are trying to tell us. The only true answer: Jesus – period. We must keep our eyes and our lives focused on Jesus more intently and more purposefully than ever before, if we truly desire to get to where we need to be in the midst of what’s going on all around us; in the midst of all we are personally having to discern and walk through.

There are multiple “voices” attempting daily to capture our attention and support: every voice is trying to convince, attract, or direct us in whatever path the experts (man) in that position or field have determined to be the “change,” the “right way,” or the “direction we need to go.” This is precisely why our nation has become so polarized throughout the past season. People have been “blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming” (Ephesians 4:14). Jesus is the only way we need to concern ourselves with (John 14:6). The foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and Jesus is the only way to our great need for God’s wisdom (1 Corinthians 1:25). (In spite of certain political agendas, America’s motto remains, “In God we trust.”)

With all of the reports we are hearing daily (i.e. left media news verses right cable news), how do we really know which one is telling us the truth? Jesus is the only truth (John 14:6, 17:3, Ephesians 4:21,1 John 5:6). Unless He lives in us and His Spirit is teaching us, there is no way to discern the real truth in these times we are living in (John 16:13). If we’re not keeping our eyes on Jesus, and are not being led by His Spirit of Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Might, Knowledge and Fear of the Lord, we are at risk of being deceived by those vying for our attention; those who do not really know Him, and those who are being used by the father of all lies (John 8:44, 1 John 2:22). (There are multiple references and warnings in the New Testament pertaining to our vulnerability to lies and deception. The original sin occurred because of deception (Genesis 3). The devil is a master deceiver and he knows how to manipulate man to deceive and be deceived.) The end result of deception is fear and death.

If we are truly honest with ourselves, we are currently experiencing on almost every level and in almost every sector of society, the fruit of a culture with a spirit of death. Even conservative cable news is not able to speak into a culture of life, because they report and expose “what is seen” from a natural perspective (which is of course, negative or fearful, because “rotten” is the fruit of a culture with a spirit of death). The media is not speaking life and hope into the lives of their viewers (speaking or prophesying the unseen according to the truth of Scripture or to the revelation and leading of Holy Spirit). As Christians, we are being called to a new level of carrying the life of Christ – the fruit of a culture of life – to a world around us in need of choosing life. Unless our eyes are focused on Jesus, the only true life, (John 3:16-17, 14:6), we will not be able to think life-giving thoughts, much less speak life-giving words or carry life-producing actions into our families, schools, workplaces, or communities.

Fact: we are accountable for the next generation. They are trusting the adults (parents, teachers, mentors, and leaders) in their lives to equip them in the way they should go. If our eyes are focused on anything or anyone other than Jesus Christ, we will fail them. In this season, we need to cry out to the Lord, who alone empowers us to keep our focus on Him, and who alone is able to guide, protect, and provide for us. We must stay on the path of truth and life. We need to lead our children and youth on this very path of choosing eternal truth and life. We cannot entrust this generation to our government (not executive, legislative nor judicial), to our educational systems (I have such a burden for our children and youth who are being immersed in humanism, but that is for another article), to the media, nor to the arts and entertainment industry. This is first and foremost, the responsibility of the family (mothers AND fathers), and then, for the Church to come alongside the family to encourage, support, equip, and edify.

We, the Church, MUST NOT COMPROMISE the truth of the Word (for the sake of being politically correct or seeker sensitive), nor can we be complacent or indifferent to this challenge. Let us continue to “press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called us heavenward in Christ Jesus. All of us who are mature should take such a view of things…Only let us live up to what we have already attained” (Philippians 3:14-16). Let us rise up and answer His call to speak and carry Life and Truth throughout this nation and into this next generation.

I awoke one morning earlier this year to the question posed at the beginning of this article: “How did we get to here?” The following words are the words the Lord sang through me in answer to this question:

I Am
Copyright 2009 Tammy Sorenson/Jaran Family Ministires/the arts express’d

I see every face on every single child
That nobody wanted
The world threw them away
I see every tear on every single face
Of every broken heart needing someone to look their way

I Am the only answer
Don’t believe the lies they say
I Am the only hope
You’re all crying out for this day
How did we get to here?
And how do we get to where we need to be?
Jesus is My name

I see every child, hungry, sick, abused
Crying for someone to take away their pain
I see every child empty and alone
Fearing that no one cares or knows their name

I Am the only answer
Don’t believe the lies they say
I Am the only hope
You’re all crying out for this day
How did we get to here?
And how do we get to where we need to be?
Jesus is My name

I Am the love you’re looking for
I Am peace and so much
I Am your way, your truth, your life
I Am

I am the freedom that you seek
I Am your strength when you are weak
I Am the shelter from this storm
I Am

How did we get to here?
And how do we get to where we need to be?
Jesus is My name

In these times we are living in, my spirit is frequently groaning the words to Jason Upton’s song, “Lord, teach me how to pray. Not my will or my plans or the way that I want, I’m so tired of my hands in the way. So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today, Oh God. Lord, teach me how to pray. Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done, Oh Father, here on earth just as it is in Heaven. A passion for Your heart, Oh God, raise up a generation with a passion for Your heart, Oh God. Where Your heart breaks, Oh God, let my heart break, Oh God, Oh God. Raise up a prophetic generation not about the future or fortune or fame or fad, but about the feelings on Your heart, Oh God. Teach us how to pray, Oh Father. So I’ll keep asking for Your Kingdom to come; looking for Your will to be done for every nation, tribe and tongue, Lord, teach me how to pray. Open our ears that we may hear. Open our eyes that we may see. Open up our ears, open up our eyes that we may see. Lord, teach us how to pray.”

I keep pressing in daily to seek His face and to obey His Word. I want to have so much of Christ in me that I see what the Father is doing and I hear what the Father is saying and I actually witness Him bring it to Earth through me. It’s His will that our good friend Ted does not have to battle the cancer he’s had to battle for years, but rather that he lives to see his grandchildren, just as the Lord spoke to him. It’s His will that our friend Diane, a homeschool mom with 5 young kids, does not have to battle cancer. It’s also His will that Diane’s daughter, Sarah, whom she chose to give life to in honor and obedience to glorify the Lord (rather than abort her as doctors would have chosen), be healed of Trisomy 18. It’s His will that Kingdom people who know and love the Lord and desire to sow financially where He leads them to sow don’t have to struggle with finances, not having a job, etc.. It’s His will that families don’t get divorced; that marriage covenants are honored and His children don’t have to grow up in broken homes, abandoned or abused. It’s His will that our dear friends with 5 kids should not have had to bury their 50 year old mom due to cancer. It’s His will that all His children would come to know His love rather than push Him out of society. It’s His will that our nation stay aligned with Israel. It’s His will that we do not allow the Freedom of Choice act to be passed and that we come to understand the sanctity of life. It’s His will that we keep the sanctity of marriage between a man and woman. It’s His will that our President lead this nation with the Father’s heart and will; according to the leading of His Spirit as one nation under God and everything that encompasses.

The list of the goodness of the Lord’s heart, His love and His will, His plans and purposes is endless. I wholeheartedly desire to know how to know Him so intimately that I tap into that place Jesus told us we would tap into when He declared that we would do greater works…what could be greater than what Jesus accomplished? A Kingdom people all over the world being aligned with the fullness of His heart and authority bringing it to manifest here on the earth because of what He accomplished on our behalf.

I ask the Lord daily to help me pray for every child who has no one in their lives to pray over them, protect them, nurture them or teach them to know Him and His love; teach them they have a destiny and a purpose in His Kingdom. I pray for every aspect of the Lord’s heart and will for each one to manifest here on Earth just as it does in Heaven. In God’s economy I know there is everything good they need; there is no lack and there is no evil in Heaven. Lord, teach me how to bring it to Earth in the same way Jesus taught His disciples to when He walked the earth.

Therefore, it is my 2009 goal to learn to pray in such a way that my Father’s will and heart can manifest on Earth through me; to be His daughter, His friend, His vessel, aligned, surrendered and anointed in Christ…someone my Father is looking for who’s heart and mind are set on Him. In that place I know I won’t be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal just going about doing my own thing my own way and not manifesting His love to the world. Only then will I have found my Kingdom place in this world.

The Lord gave me the following songs on my prayer walks. I believe they reflect the days we are living in and His heart for this nation.

TOO MUCH RELIGION
Hear the cries of the unborn, yet murder is a crime
Ban speech for some, but for others it’s fine
Redefine the family to fit our current need
This generation’s on to this, longing us to see that there’s

Too much religion and not enough truth
Too much hypocrisy confronting our youth
Too much of living all for ourselves
Don’t want our destinies sitting on some shelf

There is only one way, there is only one truth
There is only one life and He is calling Your name
His love for you is true
Now’s the time for change ‘cuz He’s returning soon

I want to walk in freedom; I just want to be real
Is there any one who truly love and wants to know how I feel?
Stop polluting, controlling, everything in my life
With things so unreal, perverted, contrived

I want to walk in freedom; I just want to be real
I’ve found the One who truly loves and wants to know how I feel
In Him I am chosen, made new and alive
Righteous and holy; a pure spotless bride

Hannah gave birth to Samuel and brought him to Eli to be trained up in the Temple (as a fulfillment of her promise to the Lord in exchange for a child), right next to the Ark of the Covenant (1 Samuel 3:3). Samuel was raised up in the house of the Lord where he learned to recognize and obey the voice of the Lord from an early age. He communed with God throughout each day…he even slept near the Ark of the Covenant, which represented the presence of the Lord in the Temple in that day. Today, each of us having received and professed Jesus Christ as Lord, represents the temple of the Holy Spirit, and we have a responsibility to teach our children and youth how to: 1) desire and yearn for their Lord and Savior above all things; 2) hear and obey the voice of their Heavenly Father; 3) be in the Word, pray and worship at all times and in all seasons; 4) rise up in the authority of Christ Jesus in us and learn to advance His Kingdom here on earth as it is in Heaven. This will include taking back all that the enemy has stolen from the Kingdom of God and from His people…everything from the sanctity of life and marriage, the commandments, and prayer (the politically correct aetheist/humanist agenda to separate church and state – which by the way is not in the Constitution), to music and the arts, business, media, monetary wealth and government, to destinies, mantles and callings, to the manifestation of justice, purity and holiness.

This generation needs to take hold of God’s heart for the poor and needy, the abused, the sick, the war-torn, the persecuted and those who cannot speak for themselves. When this generation learns to seek the Father’s heart wholeheartedly through His Word, worship and intercession, they will wage war on the kingdom of darkness (powers and principalities) with mighty weapons that will tear down strongholds (2 Corinthians 10:3-6). When this generation rises up with a passion for their King and Bridegroom, and with a revelation of who they are in Christ, the church will then begin manifest a greater measure of what Jesus’ death and resurrection purchased on our behalf (Daniel 11:32, ”But the people who do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.” John 14:12, “I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.”)

God is birthing a response to the prayers of today’s Hannahs (1 Samuel 1-3) who have cried out for a generation of children and youth who love the Lord God Almighty with all their heart, soul, mind and strength; Hannahs who have fervently labored for years on behalf of a generation not lured or distracted by the world and what the world (the culture and the media) deems as acceptable and popular. God has seen the hearts of the Hannahs who desire to train their children up in the way they should go; children whose only testimony is to have walked with the Lord all the days of their lives.

My heart and prayer burdens have been likened to that of Hannah’s. My spirit has been pregnant with the purposes of the Lord in birthing a generation of Samuels who are fully consecrated to the Lord and His Kingdom purposes from an early age; a generation of Davids who are wholeheartedly after His heart from their youth; and a generation of Esthers, Josiahs and Daniels who stand boldly against the culture to obediently advance the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth. This new generation will be a presence generation; they will love the Lord and His presence with a fiery passion, and will yearn to live a 24/7 lifestyle of worship in spirit and truth. They will intercede for the advancement of the Kingdom of God on the earth, will war against anything and everything that hinders His love and His purposes with supernatural weapons not of this world, and they will prepare for the return of Christ and His eternal reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. I’m talking about the kids of this generation and the generation to come walking out the manifestation and fulfillment of the book of Revelation! Every prayer and every day intensely and purposefully matters!

My Dearest Lord and Savior

Where is the passionate and radical generation longing to be wholehearted lovers of You? Where is the generation who will not be distracted and lured by the things of this world? Where is the generation who sees You, Jesus, as their hero? Where are the stadiums filled with those who have come to worship You? My spirit has fervently labored in pray to birth this 24/7 generation of Samuels and Davids who love You and desire Your presence above all else…of Esthers, Josiahs, and Daniels who will stand boldly for You to obediently advance Your Kingdom here on earth…those who long to see Your Kingdom come and Your will be done each and every day wherever we’ve been called and however you have gifted, purposed and called us to release it. Please use what You have birthed in my heart to birth and encourage the hearts of all those You are raising up to mentor Your chosen generation; those called to train up and prepare the generation You are calling forth to carry the torch of Your Holy Spirit and to yield the sword of Your Word from the youngest of ages. Please release your chosen generation here on earth to see and hear the things that are on Your heart – Your good and perfect will – Your love, Your compassion, Your justice, Your mercy, and Your holiness to draw every nation unto Yourself. In Your Beautiful Name, Jesus, I Pray

I begin teaching by setting off an enormous alarm clock, as there truly has been an alarm ringing in the spirit since about 2000, and I’ve been particularly tuned into its ringing regarding this generation, this nation, the culture and the direction we have been moving. The ringing is increasing in intensity as we begin to move from a transition season to crossing over (For more on the Joel 2 teaching read,The Unopened Gift, under Identity in Christ on this site.)

When I am in worship, I see the Lord, the Lion of Judah, mighty in battle on a white horse, leading an army of kids and youth who are radical and passionate about Him – He is their hero – and they follow Him wherever He leads them, forcing back the darkness (Ephesians 6:12) and advancing the Kingdom of Heaven here on earth. Jesus is their everything and He is who they worship. They live to be in His presence and there is nothing they wouldn’t do for Him because they understand how much He loves them, who they are in the fullness of Him, and they have committed themselves to wholehearted abandonment and obedience to Him and His purposes. Purity and holiness are the very essence of their being because they are the very essence of His being.

This army of love, purity and holiness – a generation (a multigeneration, as the covering and wisdom of the older saints of all ages is very necessary and very much a part of His plan – read Rick Joyner’s, The Torch and the Sword) – takes back this nation for the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus is the love of this generation. They carry the heart and will of Heaven because they belong to the Kingdom of God. They are not lured by the normal “stuff” of this culture. As kids and youth they enjoy all that He has blessed them with to use as tools in carrying out His Great Commandment and His Great Commission…but they are not distracted or lured by anyone or anything…they have no idols…their devotion is to the One who has won their hearts. They know and desire His presence 24/7. They are the pure and spotless Bride that He is making ready for His return.

The recent timing and release of The Chronicles of Narnia series (Aslan is on the move again), and One Night with the King (the story of Esther, who was used to rescue her nation) were not coincidental…nothing is in the Kingdom – everything has its perfect time (Ecclesiastes 3:1). Psalm 8:2 is one of my favorite verses for this generation: “You have taught children and nursing infants to give you praise, they silence your enemies who were seeking revenge.” (NLS) “From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise because of your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.” (NIV) The Lord sees our children as weapons in His hands; Psalm 127:4-5, “Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born of one’s youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate.” We are living in what is about to become the most exciting day of the Church…He has been saving the greatest revelation of His glory yet to be released in this generation…His Kingdom come and His will be done here on earth just as it is in Heaven.

Creation has been groaning for the revelation of the sons and daughters of the living God to be revealed…we are living in that generation. What happened to the babies when the Lord brought forth Moses on the earth to be the Deliver of His people? They were killed. What happened to the babies when the Lord sent His Beloved Son to earth to become the Deliver of all mankind? They were killed. What’s been happening to the babies for the past 40+ years; 50 million so far? Abortion…just think about it. Satan knows his time is running short. Again…nothing is coincidental in the Kingdom of God. The fullness of Christ is about to be revealed in a generation of all ages…from the youngest to the oldest…and they will roar with the Lion of Judah as they take back all that the enemy has stolen from the Kingdom of Heaven…beginning with the children and youth that the enemy has been targeting not only through abortion, but through the media machine (Read Ron Luce’s new book, Re-Create), and through our schools and universities. (Read Understanding the Times by David Noebel to see how specific unBiblical worldviews have deliberately infiltrated our educational system.)

It’s time for those who have been hidden in Christ…hidden in the wilderness…to come forth…to be revealed…to arise and shine (Isaiah 60). God is still God, regardless of what anyone in the culture says or does to try to prove otherwise (including the new humanist billboard advertising campaign on our nation’s bus systems just in time for Christmas). The One true, living God still sits on the Throne of the United States of America. He has been preparing His sons and daughters to carry His glory and power (the glory and power He referred to when He said, “I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father,” John 14:12) throughout the earth, and He will reap an abundant harvest through a mighty move of His Spirit and a powerful Joel 2 army who knows their God; who knows the identity that Jesus purchased on their behalf; who knows the voice of the Holy Spirit intimately; who understands that obedience brings blessing and bears much Kingdom fruit.

I want to emphasize that this army is different than any army that’s ever walked the earth before. What’s different about it? It’s an army of worshipers…an army of love that releases the love of the Father through the power of the love of His Son to manifest all of the love and goodness of Heaven here on the earth to a world so desperately in need of salvation, healing, miracles, signs and wonders, provision, protection, freedom, peace, rest, etc… Acts 2:17-21, “‘And it shall be in the last days,’ God say, ‘That I will pour forth of my spirit upon all mankind; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see vision, and your old men shall dream dreams…and it shall be, that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Luke 4:18-19, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He anointed Me to preach the Gospel to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are downtrodden, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord.” This army will know the Word of God, be filled with His Spirit, will know and obey His voice, and will accomplish great and mighty things in the name of Jesus…the lover of our souls! It’s all about reconciliation…restoring a generation, restoring the Church, restoring families and individual lives, restoring the arts – music, art, dance, writing – restoring the media, etc…it all belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven and a generation is about to take dominion on the earth as the Lord instructed Adam (Genesis 1:28); Jesus Christ came to reconcile intimate relationship between the Father and His children, which also brought reconciliation to the Kingdom of Heaven taking dominion on earth through His people. In His name and in His power it will be reconciled and restored.

For those who regard the final book of the Bible (Revelations) as just an historical account of what transpired during the time of John on the Island of Patmos (there are a number of Christians who believe we are not to add anything to that teaching and that the Bible is just a history book rather than the living Word of God), there is about to be an awakening regarding the truths and unfulfilled contents of its pages (Additionally, I believe much revelation and unfulfilled prophesy will come forth from other books, such as Daniel). Christians who hold endtimes estachological perspectives (Pre-Trib, Mid-Trib, Post-Trib, etc.) are tuned in to what the Spirit is saying in the midst of these days we are living in. The Lord Himself addressed these times (Matthew 24:6-35; Mark 13:7-31 – also note Joel 2:30-31). Ryan Wyatt’s, The Antidote of Heaven, November 19, 2008, www.elijahlist.com is an excellent article for additional reading and confirmation of what the Lord has been speaking to this generation…the Joel 2 army is about to arise for such a time as this…Glory!

In the box is the fullness of Christ waiting to be poured out on each of His sons and daughters of every age; from the youngest to the oldest. In the box, however, there are no junior Holy Spirits. Too many in the church have viewed what God sees as weapons in His hands (Psalm 127:3-4) as the church of the future. News flash #1: We are living in the days that Jesus spoke of when quoting the prophet Joel, “In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy” (Acts 2:17).

I am talking about the children and the youth because the gift is intended for them as much as it’s for the adults. Yes, we are to train His children up in the way they should go; yes, we are to teach them His Word when we are at home, when we walk along the road, when we lie down and when we get up; yes, we are to come along side them with the wisdom, experience and the training of our years. But…there are not years to waste waiting for them to be the church of the future; there are not years to waste waiting for them to become the prodigal sons and daughters that we pray will come home again at the appointed time; there are not years to waste waiting for them to wander around the mountain another 40 years! It is time in the course of God’s Kingdom timetable to go up that mountain; it’s time to conquer the giants in this land, and our children and youth are to be armed with the Word of God and the fullness of His Spirit, conquering and advancing the Kingdom of Heaven on earth right beside us; depending on the Lord’s leading, conquering in front of us. It’s time for signs and wonders to follow the children of God regardless of age. When the Lord uses a child to pray healing into a stranger filled with cancer in a Wal-Mart, and healing manifests, God gets the glory! When the Lord uses a youth to bring deliverance from drugs and addictions to a classmate at school, God gets the glory!

We are in the season that requires us to be training our children and youth to be pressing in to His presence on a daily basis. In that place the children and youth will know their God, they will know His voice, He will reveal His divine strategies, and this generation will do mighty exploits! The children and youth will hear His voice in their schools, in the shopping malls, the grocery stores and the gas stations. They will activate their faith and obey in the name of Jesus; people will get saved, healed and delivered and God will get the highest glory and honor! Jesus came as a child to save this world and He desires to use our children and youth for His Kingdom purposes on the earth today. If we will just open the gift and see what He sees this will become our journey as multigenerational families.

When I worship I see a mighty army linked arm-in-arm…invincible, unstoppable and passionately in love with and obedient to the One they are following…Jesus on a white horse, mighty in battle. This mighty army is filled with children and youth…the mighty army is multigenerational. Many have been faithful to train up their children in the Word, but it’s time to be faithful to train them up in the Spirit and release them to advance the Kingdom.

The world understands this; Satan understands this. It’s not a coincidence that Pharoah murdered the babies of Moses’ day (his fear tried to eliminate the prophetic deliverer of the Israelites). It’s not a coincidence that Herod murdered the babies of Jesus’ day (his fear tried to eliminate the fulfillment of the Deliver of all mankind). News flash #2: It’s not a coincidence that millions of babies are being aborted today (Fear again has eliminated and continues to eliminate an entire generation of children who were created with Kingdom destiny and purpose, and their blood cries out for their Deliver; fear of inconvenience, fear of commitment and responsibility, fear of consequences, fear of the unknown, etc. and Satan’s fear…*see below.).

Satan’s tactics are cleverly disguised. Why are all of the movies, sports activities, educational activities, media gadgets, etc. aimed at our kids, and even at maturing our kids, at younger and younger ages? It’s not because we continue to advance as a society, but rather that we continue to have to adjust as a society as he continues to weave his schemes. It seems perfectly acceptable and maybe even “cute” to expose our young children to the supernatural from a demonic standpoint (Harry Potter just for starters – another blog). Wake up America! The enemy is the master deceiver and he wants to steal and destroy our kids and their destinies. All of it is a complete distraction…a diversion…because *THE ENEMY KNOWS HOW POWERFUL GOD’S KIDS ARE WHEN THEY TAKE HOLD OF WHO THEY ARE IN CHRIST JESUS AND REALLY KNOW THEIR GOD, rather than just knowing about Him.

Our kids can sit in front of video games, television and or/play for hours and we think nothing of it. Why not sit for hours in the presence of the Lord as kids, youth and as families? Every gift of the Spirit that is available to all of His sons and daughters is available to every son and daughter, regardless of age…there is nothing in Scripture about a junior Holy Spirit or an age appropriate recommendation. Jesus didn’t send the children off to Sunday School or children’s church when He taught. He didn’t confine them to Wednesdays and Sundays. No, He said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these” (Matthew 19:14).

Read that Scripture again…and again…and again. It’s time to open the gift, Church! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. The Kingdom of Heaven belongs to the children. The Kingdom of Heaven is advancing forcefully. Every child, youth and adult is called to step in to their destiny and purpose now…today! Let’s teach our kids to know their God, to know who they are in Christ as sons and daughters, AND to press into His presence, hear His voice and obey what He says. Watch what He will do. Study what He did with a shepherd boy (David), an altar boy (Samuel), an orphaned girl (Esther), a very young king (Josiah), a good student (Daniel), and a devoted teenage girl (Mary, the mother of Jesus)…every one of these individuals were kids and youth when they stepped into their calling…every one of them left an inspiring example of what the Lord can do with a yielded vessel at any age. Let’s activate those examples in our kids and youth today. It’s time to open the Gift!

The previous season the Lord has walked us through has imparted greater revelation and maturation of the identity Christ’s death and resurrection purchased on our behalf. One of the precious gifts the Lord wove together in our summer moments was a letter from Him to share with everyone wherever He would send us to minister in this coming season. Put on an instrumental worship CD (a link to “Spontaneous Expressions” is available on this site), insert your name into the following, and feel His presence impart fresh revelation of who you are in Christ Jesus; the precious Son of our Heavenly Father, our Saviour, Redeemer and Lord. I pray that it will strengthen and encourage you, and cause you to rise up in His authority with purpose and destiny for advancing His Kingdom on earth. I also pray that in this upcoming election season, the revelation contained in the words of this letter will empower you to vote for candidates who will lead with the Father’s heart for each and every individual; encourage others to do the same. Be blessed!

A LETTER FROM GOD

Dear __________,
Before I shaped you in your mother’s womb, I knew all about you. Before you were born I had holy plans for you (Jeremiah 1:5). Oh yes, I created you, first inside, then out; I formed you in your mother’s womb. Thank Me because you are breathtaking! Body and soul, you are fearfully and wonderfully made! Worship and praise Me because you have been marvelously made! I know everything about you; I know every bone in your body and every hair on your head. I know exactly how you were made, bit by bit, how you were sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, I watched you grow from conception to birth; all the stages of your life were spread out before Me. The days of your life all prepared before you’d even lived one day. My thoughts should be precious and beautiful to you for the sum of them cannot be measured. You couldn’t even begin to count them – any more than you could count the sand of the sea. Rise in the morning and live always with Me (Psalm 139:13-14)!
I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out – plans to take care of you, plans to not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. When you call on Me, when you come and pray to Me, I’ll listen. When you come looking for Me, you’ll find me. Yes, when you get serious about finding me and want it more than anything else; when you seek with all your heart, with all your mind, with all your soul and with all your strength, you will find Me and I’ll make sure you won’t be disappointed (Jeremiah 29:11, Mark 12:30)! I am the Lord your God, and I am with you; I am mighty to save. I take great delight in you. I quiet you with My love, and I rejoice over you with singing (Zephaniah 3:17).
I love you so much that I gave my only Son, Jesus Christ, so that believing in Him you have eternal life (John 3:16). For I chose you in Christ Jesus long before I laid down the earth’s foundations. I had you in mind, had settled on you as the focus on My love, to be made whole and holy by My love. Long, long ago I adopted you into My family through Jesus Christ. I took great pleasure in planning this! I wanted you to enter into the celebration of My over-flowing gift-giving by the hand of My beloved Son. Because of the sacrifice of Jesus your Messiah, His blood poured out on the altar of the Cross, you’re free – free of penalties and punishments chalked up by all your misdeeds and mistakes. Not just barely free, either. Abundantly free (greater, unlimited freedom that you can ever understand)! I thought of everything, provided for everything you could possibly need, letting you in on the plans I took such delight in making. I set it all out before you in Christ, a long-range plan in which everything would be brought together and summed up in Him; everything in deepest Heaven, everything on planet earth. It’s in Christ that you find out who you are and what you are living for. Long before you first heard of Christ and got your hopes up, I had My eye on you: had designs on you for glorious living, part of the overall purpose I am working out in everything and everyone. You are included in Christ when you hear the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you are marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:4-13).
I live in you and move in you. I don’t play hide-and-seek with you. I’m not far away; I’m near. I am your God and you are mine. So leave the corruption and compromise: leave it for good. Don’t link up with those who will pollute you. I want you all for myself. I am your Father; you are My sons and daughters (Acts 17:28, 2 Corinthians 6:18). My Spirit touches your spirit and confirms who you really are. You know who I am, and you know who you are: Father and child. (Romans 8:14, 16). It should be clear to you that I love you very much and have put My hand on you – chosen you – for something special (1 Thessalonians 1:4). You are chosen by Me, chosen for the high calling of Kingdom work: chosen to be holy, My instrument to do My work and speak out for Me, to tell others of the night-and-day difference I made for you – from nothing to something, from rejected to accepted (1 Peter 2:9). You are receiving a kingdom that cannot be destroyed, therefore be thankful and desire to please Me by loving Me and worshiping Me with holy fear and awe (Hebrews 12:28, John 14:21).
From the lips of babies and kids of all ages I have perfected praise. Nursing infants gurgle choruses about Me; toddlers shout the songs that drown out enemy talk, and silence non-believing babble (Psalm 8:2) For the time has now come when the true worshipers will worship Me in spirit and in truth. It’s who you are and the way you live that count before Me. Your worship must engage your spirit in pursuing (following or chasing after) truth. That’s the kind of children I am looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before Me in their worship. I am Spirit. Those who worship Me must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their whole selves, and in adoration (John 4:23-24).
My Holy Spirit will lead you into all truth. Because of Me He lives in you. Obey My commandments because you love Me. My Father loves you, I love you, and I will reveal myself to you because you love Me. I will never abandon you as orphans…there are no orphans in Heaven, and through Me there are no orphans on earth. I have always loved you and I always will.
(John 14:15-18)
