1. WHAT CAN BELIEVERS DO? – Bob Kloppel
WHAT CAN BELIEVERS DO? – Bob Kloppel
The world is increasingly a mess and it definitely looks like that’s a trend!
My feeling is that God is allowing it so that many will awaken to the fact that the current human trajectory is badly skewed because of false ideas, information, concepts, values, and goals that are highly destructive to the world and its people.
In contrast to this destructive wave are six fundamental characteristics God built into the very fabric of the dimension of Heaven: abundance, peace, beauty, joy, purpose, and love. (There are many more, of course, but God has shown me that these six are fundamentally important.)
Well, okay…..but how do these characteristics of Heaven have anything to do with the Earth realm? Easy. He included them in the design for the first garden on Earth – the beautiful Garden of Eden! In fact, Eden was the model for developing the world outside the gates of that first and primal garden. That is when its residents were prepared.
Thus, the model for the Garden of Eden, as well as for the entire realm of Earth outside Eden’s gates, shared the same eternally beautiful developmental plan!
No need to belabor what happened. As Chuck Pierce says, “Every garden has a snake!” He goes on to say it must be dealt with via declaring and acting upon the truths, values, and authority of God.
IT’S NOT OVER YET
Yes, I know – we have yet to do so to the necessary degree but the story of this awesomely designed planet is not over!
Neither is the story of the God-given gift of our lives over! We are transitioning to the next chapter in God’s plans for us and the Earth.
That which is developing personally for many appears to be very much akin to Simon Peter’s experience in the boat that stormy night on the Sea of Galilee! We too are now about to be called to walk upon the water. Hmmm – lots of faith needed.
Here, though, is the bottom-line interpretation. Until God tells us to stop, we are called to be people of growing faith who respond to present-day history in the making by seeking and receiving connectivity with the dimension of Heaven so as to allow abundance, peace, beauty, joy, purpose, and love to flow into the earth realm…..through us!
Powerful!! That’s right – we have a responsibility as believers. I reject the notion that we are simply to endure the works of darkness and hope that God soon sends Jesus to fix everything for us.
No doubt, we need the Holy Trinity in a big way. But What happened to the understanding that believers in the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are true children of God?
With that authority handed down to us let us stand and together make a profound difference!
VISUALIZING HIS CALLING
The visual I have prepared is not presenting anything brand new. Rather it is a way of visualizing the matters discussed here.
I have made use of the Hebrew letter “Vav”. Hebrew letters were originally pictographic. Vav originally pictured a tent peg. I like to see it as a railroad spike.
Either way, Vav represents a “connecting pin”. For example, a tent peg connects a tent to the ground so that it will not blow away or collapse. Railroad spikes help connect the rails to the ties that the rails sit upon. It is obvious why.
By Jesus’ very commandments to us and his life illustrations for us, He is calling us to be “living vavs” connecting Heaven’s characteristics with the realm of the Earth. This connection brings LIGHT that dispels vicious darkness!!
Always be a Vav prayerfully, of course! Let Him guide you in the what, where, when, why, and how. He will oversee you and shield you.
In closing……..Lord, I pray that you will encourage, instruct, and protect every living Vav!! In all, we do as such, whatever it is, may it glorify your name and draw more of mankind to you. Amen

2. POWER AND STRENGTH OF LOVE – Ron McGatlin
POWER AND STRENGTH OF LOVE – Ron McGatlin
The supernatural spiritual strength or power in the Sons of God comes from alignment with God. Biblical principles and laws give us an understanding of the general fixed designs and ways of God.
Seeking to be in alignment with God through only understanding biblical principles and laws from the Bible is always incomplete and often leads to failure.
Perfect alignment with God must include God in His mercy, patience, and longsuffering, and at the same time His wrath, judgment, and holiness.
Our incomplete understanding of all matters involved in each situation makes it impossible to figure out the will of God in every situation. We may have some understanding but never have all knowledge of the situation or exactly what God is doing in the situation before us.
We must personally commune with God and hear or see from Him in the Spirit to know how to align with Him in each situation of life. Our ability to hear or see and know the will of God in each situation involves our intimate relationship with God.
God loves the world and all mankind. In His love, He has only a good desire and plan for all of us all the time. God’s final plan for us is not just healing our sickness and disease. His plan is “divine health” in which there is no need for healing.
We collectively as mankind are the ones that disallow the perfect will and plan of God in our lives.
The devil was defeated at the cross and the resurrection brought a return to the original state of mankind before sin had entered.
It is time for true believers to leave the milk of the prepared and processed baby food of man-focused religious teachings to experience the power and love of mature true sons and daughters of Father God in Christ Jesus by the Holy Spirit. (Hebrews 5:12-14).
It is time now to be fully and tightly connected to the Spirit reality of heaven to receive the kingdom of God and establish the full reality of the kingdom of heaven ruling all matters of life on Planet Earth. “Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, for all patience and longsuffering with joy; giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love. (Colossians 1:11-13).
THE GREAT RETURN
The greatest return yet to come is the return of God’s people to fully connect through Christ Jesus into perfect love union with Father God of heaven as the Bride of Christ bringing forth the army of God’s mature sons to establish the kingdom of God from heaven on earth.
This is not a war for the people to fight. It is a finished conquest and prepared kingdom awaiting the generation that will receive it.
The return to God is a transition from natural life to Spirit life as the reality of our reality of existence. It is the dominant reality of our existence as Spirit beings relating in love with Spirit God reproducing heaven’s Spirit life into a temporal demonstration of physical manifestation of the Spirit reality of heaven on earth.
The power and wisdom of heaven are with us and in us if we truly believe and submit to the love of God. Holy angels work with us and around us supplying the unseen Spirit creative activity to bring about the establishment of the purposes of God on earth as in heaven.
OPEN OUR HEARTS TO RECEIVE
Religious teachings have built walls of doctrines that block the revelation of the reality of the kingdom of God from growing in us and then into the world.
When the prayers and sacrifices of those sent with the light of God in fresh revelation bring a potential breakthrough for us, we must decide to receive it and lay down our past incomplete or inerrant beliefs to receive the further light of God. The increased light of God drives darkness away and removes shadows exposing the greater fullness of life in God while on earth.
The enemy does not like this and fights with all he has trying to stop or delay the manifesting of the kingdom of God.
The alternate kingdom of man and the devil will do all possible to stop or delay the kingdom from its rightful place of reigning in this world and to increase the stronghold of the kingdom of darkness in this world.
Today is the time for the real kingdom of God to manifest on earth as it is in heaven. There is no more worthy mission in life than to become a full-grown servant king and priest in the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven.
“And have made us kings and priests to our God;
And we shall reign on the earth.” Revelation 5:10.
