DAY OF THE LORD
I am impressed with the pictures I received daily from around the world. World Action Evangelism Association members are doing the work of God with great authority and power. The bible talks about the "Day of the Lord". We normally associate it with the second coming of Christ. I am convinced that it is much more than that. Barns commentary defines it as: "God manifesting himself in a special manner; a day when he will so strikingly be seen in his wonders that it may be called His day. Thus, it is applied to the day of the Son of man; the day in which He will be the great attractive object, and will be signally glorified."
I believe we are living in that day. I wish you could be in our Action Evangelism office to see what we see as WAEA members honor their agreement with us and send us awesome pictures of their work in each country. This is the day of great harvest. Crusades are being held by national evangelists with great results. We not only enjoy seeing what our "Mat" ministry action teams are doing in smaller villages, but also the vision many have of holding larger crusades. People all over the world are hungry to receive the gospel. All we need to do is provide the venue for them to come together and hear the gospel. Signs and wonders are happening. People are being healed, demons must flee as the power and authority of Jesus Christ is released through anointed men and women of God! The kingdom of God is expanding at such a rate that the kingdom of darkness is diminishing around the world. This is the season of MAN! The year 2006 represents the year of the favor of the Lord. This is the year that ministries are going forward at a pace that we have never seen before. This is truly the year of ACTION! God is being seen and recognized as a great attractive object and singnally glorified. "The knowledge of the Lord shall cover the earth as the waters that cover the seas" Jesus request to the Father to possess the "Uttermost parts of the earth" is being fulfilled right in front of our eyes. I believe the Lord says to us..."do not be discouraged by what you see in the natural. For I the Lord am girding your loins with the covenant of my blessing and my divine purpose. Gather up your garment of service and run. Run to the harvest. I will make a way where their seems to be no way! I will provide through people you never dreamed would help. I have my providers all over the world ready to support your efforts. I am the Lord and I have decreed this great end time harvest. Nothing shall stop it, hinder it or cause the soil to be waisted. Just pray, pray, pray. I move through the prayers of my saints. I will perform every word I have spoken over you. Lift up your eyes. Lift up your hearts. Lift up you hands to the work for I am sending warring angels ahead of you to prepare the way. The most difficult places on earth shall began to open. The windows of heaven have already opened over these fields and it is ready to rain. Get ready, get ready, get ready your season of great blessing has come".
Dear special servant the most high God. I want to encourage you this morning with this good word from the Lord. I am sitting in tears as I write this to you. Please don't be discouraged by any setbacks you may have at this time. They are only temporary. You are under the divine favor of the Almighty. Just move forward with your vision. God is good and the goodness of the Lord will prevail upon you and your work. I declare in the mighty name of Jesus that divine health will be upon you. Divine provision will be at your side. Divine wisdom will prevail in your decisions. Divine authority will break down every wall of resistance. This is your season and time. It has been ordained from the beginning of time. You are called and God will never, never lift that calling from off you. His anointing to set the captive free will increase as you use it in your field of service. Be blessed this day and realize you are living in the present "DAY OF THE LORD". We also wait patiently for the full manifestation of the final "Day of the Lord". But as we wait, let us occupy until He comes!
