FAITHFUL TO PRAY by Glenn Jackson

                                              
                   
Words of Prophecy:

 
*       A "house" divided against itself shall surely fall and, truly I say to you, any "house" [congregation] wherein those in leadership have established a "religious hierarchy" [through their self-exaltive and controlling practices] shall soon be divided [between those who are unrighteously motivated towards Me and those who are righteously motivated towards Me] in this hour - and this will produce a holy separation in the midst of My people. For it is certain that ANY in their midst who are truly seeking first My Kingdom [and their perfect part in it] will know deep within their heart that something is wrong and, as they approach Me in the "inner chamber" concerning these things, I will lead them to the spiritual environment that will continually meet the deepest needs of their heart.

        In these days, there will be a mass exodus from those environments that are controlled by the hand of man for it is My desire to pour out My Glory without measure in the midst of a holy people and, therefore, I must begin to gather those who are "kindred spirits" together to form a holy vessel [corporately] that will be able to stand the great Power and Light that is about to be released in their midst. Again, "holiness" is the byword of the hour! Therefore, let all those who truly love Me be found accessing [by faith] My Grace fully [in every aspect of life and ministry] for these are the days that all those who have truly sought Me have longed for and, truly I say to you, they will not be disappointed!

        ...."If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand".... Mark 3:25 NASB

        ...."Behold, what I have built I am about to tear down, and what I have planted I am about to uproot, that is, the whole land. 'But you, are you seeking great things for yourself? Do not seek them; for behold, I am going to bring disaster on all flesh,' declares the LORD"....Jeremiah 45:4-5 NASB

        ...."Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of My pasture!" declares the LORD. Therefore thus says the LORD God of Israel concerning the shepherds who are tending My people: "You have scattered My flock and driven them away, and have not attended to them; behold, I am about to attend to you for the evil of your deeds," declares the LORD. "Then I Myself will gather the remnant of My flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and bring them back to their pasture, and they will be fruitful and multiply. "I will also raise up shepherds over them and they will tend them; and they will not be afraid any longer, nor be terrified, nor will any be missing," declares the LORD"....Jeremiah 23:1-4 NASB
        This word speaks of those in leadership who have steadfastly held to the lower [soul] life - rather than a life empowered by the Holy Spirit. It is certain that as the judgements of God intensify in His household in this most critical season those already in leadership will come under the holy microscope of God and each one will either receive reward for their proper handling of the sheep or they will be removed so that they will no longer harm the sheep.

        If one steadfastly holds to "heart-fellowship" with the world [and the fruit of that, which is wilful disobedience, rebellion and the "fear of man" above reverence for God]then they will render themselves [through their unbelief] unfit to enter into the fullness of their precious Kingdom-position and destiny in Christ. We see this pattern in the people of Israel in the wilderness - as an entire generation passed away in the desert, having, through their fear and hardness of heart, rejected the promises of God [the Promised Land - which is a type and symbol of the Kingdom].

        It is extremely important for every child of God to pray for their leaders from the place of intimacy with the Father and His Word. Not only will that help those leaders break through into the fullness of their destiny, it will also position all those who are faithful to pray to enter into their own Kingdom-position and destiny in Christ.

Prayer of Proclamation:
        
Father, we thank You and praise You that we are Your Kingdom-people - a people whose deepest heart-desire is to spend quality time with You in the secret place of Your Presence, with a view to going forth from that holy place to carry out with great accuracy the tasks that You ordained for us to carry out in Christ from before the foundations of the earth. We set ourselves to pray faithfully for all those in our sphere of existence - including all those in leadership - that we might be found helping others enter into the fullness of their precious Kingdom-position and destiny, in Christ. And we declare it done in the holy Name of Jesus. Amen.

        ...."For we are God's [own] handiwork [His workmanship], recreated in Christ Jesus, [born anew] that we may do those good works which God predestined [planned beforehand] for us [taking paths which He prepared ahead of time], that we should walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us to live]".... Ephesians 2:10 The Amplified Translation
