PROPHECY:  WOMEN, MIRACLES, AND ISLAM

In the book, Danica -- Crossing the Line, by Indy car driver Danica Patrick, Danica explains that if you really want something and you work hard at it, you can succeed.

A friend told me the other day about a man who had been called to China 20 years ago but has never gone. If you have a calling from God, and if you work hard at it, it WILL come to pass: in one way or another.

Indy car driver, Danica Patrick, also describes how her father taught her to have fun. That’s what your calling in Messiah Jesus is about: Having fun, enjoying your work for God.

Yes, suffering is a part of our calling.

“That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death.” (Philippians 3:10)

“Because it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in him, but also to suffer on his behalf.”  (Philippians 1:29)

WHEN I WAS ARRESTED
AND LATER WAS STABBED WITH A KNIFE

I was arrested while preaching one time, but nine (9) people were saved in the jail. While I was out of jail awaiting my court trial I was stabbed in the abdomen by two men. I had several holes I my intestines and would have died but God sent a man I did NOT know - and who did NOT know me - to pray for me, and I was miraculously healed.

I had several tubes running in and out of my body and, also, a nurse stationed full time at my bedside. A man who was in a laundromat in Los Angeles heard about me being stabbed. He did NOT know me, but the Holy Spirit told him to go to the hospital and pray for me. At that time there were 2,500 rooms in the hospital and I was on the 9th floor in the 9300 ward.

I remember coming to consciousness and it was like God and the Holy Angels were on my right side, and the devil and demons were on my left side trying to suck my soul out of my body. I was tempted just to let go and die, enjoying the drugs flowing through me that were helping to subside my suffering. I will never forget these words: God said to me, “Get command of this situation.” I knew what He meant. I had to get command of the situation mentally. I prayed and said, “God, I know you can heal long distance, but if you will just send someone to lay hands on me and pray for me, I KNOW I will be healed."

A while later – I do not know if it was minutes or hours – a man came walking into the ward (where there were about 15 people who had been shot, stabbed, attacked). I was the worst case there and, as I mentioned, was the only one with a nurse stationed by my side full time. The man came to my bed and said these EXACT words: “Brother, the LORD Jesus raised me from the dead one time, and He has sent me to pray for you that you might be healed.” Then he laid his hands upon my head and said, “LORD Jesus, heal my brother.” After that, he turned around and walked out.

I walked out a few days later after the LORD had saved eleven (11) people in that hospital ward (including nurses).

If you want to know the POWER of Messiah’s resurrection, you have to experience His suffering. I had, previous to the time I was stabbed, preached a lot on resurrection, but NEVER about suffering.

I do NOT want suffering. Maybe some people do. However, the Word of God teaches that it is a part of our organic union with Messiah so that we may KNOW Him and the POWER of His RESURRECTION.

Work hard to attain the ministry you desire: the work God Almighty has placed in your heart. As Danica Patrick mentioned in her book, enjoy what you do. Real estate tycoon, Donald Trump, says the same thing: enjoy what you do.

You will enjoy the ministry God has given you … even through trial and suffering. The JOY of the LORD is your strength.

If you can NOT go through suffering and trial and hardship by God’s grace and through the POWER of His resurrection, then you can NOT progress to the next step of love, productivity, and forgiveness. I have long ago forgiven the men who stabbed me. After they stabbed me they even held the knife to my face with the blood upon it so I could see it. I prayed for them right there and put two little red Bibles in their hands. They are probably preachers now.

I have a large scar where I was stabbed, but it has been 39 years and two weeks since then. I am still alive serving God, and having FUN … experiencing JOY … serving the ONE Who called me into His service.

I started this podcast talking about my favorite female race car driver, Danica Patrick. Another female race car driver, Lyn St. James, winner of the 1992 Indy 500 Rookie of the Year, and on the Board of Trustees where I previously obtained my Engineering degree, has an impressive record as follows:

• 1992 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of The Year (first woman to win)

• 7 Indianapolis 500 starts in 9 years, including 6 consecutive starts (1992 - 1997)

• Highest qualifying: 6th in 1994 Indy 500; highest finish – 11th in 1992

• Set world record on closed-course for women reaching 225.722 mph during the 1995 Indy 500 qualification weekend

• Oldest driver in the field (age 53) at the 2000 Indy 500

• Raced in 15 Indy races including CART Championship and Indy Racing League.

• Scored 2 Top-10 qualifying spots; 1 Top-10 Finish

• Held 31 international and national closed circuit speed records over a 20-year period.

• Raced twice (1989, 1991) in the biggest endurance race in the world; the 24 Hours of Le Mans (France)

• Two wins in the 24 Hours of Daytona (winning GTO Team Driver in 1987 and 1990)

• Raced (9 times) in the famous 12 Hours of Sebring Endurance race (winning GTO Team driver in 1990)

• Raced in 53 SCCA Trans-Am races with 7 Top-5 finishes and raced in 62 IMSA GT races with 6 wins and 17 Top-5 and 37 Top-10 finishes

• Only woman to win an IMSA GT race driving solo (1985 Watkins Glen)

• Raced in the legendary Goodwood Motor Circuit Revival & Festival Meetings in England in 2001, 2005, 2006, and 2007

As a motivational speaker to corporate and government leaders, Lyn St. James teaches people this axiom: “Find out what makes you tick.”

Find out what makes you tick. Be willing to endure trial and suffering. Have fun. Experience JOY through the RESURRECTION POWER of the Messiah.

PROPHECY:

Just as Danica Patrick and Lyn St. James have broken through and set blazing paths in a man’s sport – high speed international auto racing - so in a parallel sense, God is getting ready to use women to break through in POWERFUL apostolic and prophetic ministry. Some of these will be women in the Middle East: in the ISLAMIC world. NO one will be able to kill them … they will have angelic protection until the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob calls them home, or until Yeshua returns. They will be deliverers as Deborah was in Israel.

UNDERSTANDING THE THREE KINGDOM MANDATES

There are three (3) mandates with which God has been pleased to reveal to us:

The Mastery Mandate;

The Mission Mandate; and,

The Millennial Mandate.

It is my objective in this podcast to describe each mandate in practical order, and to explain the purpose, responsibility, and reward associated with each one as it relates to you.

THE MASTERY MANDATE

"And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth."
[Genesis 1:26-28]

We, as Christians, are responsible to God to be involved in activities that fulfill the purpose for which God has called us: be it as an engineer, a housewife and mother, a doctor, a minister, an attorney . . . whatever ways are suitable and proper.

"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ." [Colossians 3:23]

We must be not only good students but also good stewards of the processes involved in our calling(s). To be a good steward has as a prerequisite first being a good student. There is a period of apprenticeship to every field, even for entrepreneuers. We have to learn by investigation, study, trial and error, and experience. This is foundational if we are to be MASTERS of EXCELLENCE . . . and if we are to perform excellently for The Master! This is why we have developed the advanced leadership, missions and church growth department at The University of Excellence. For more information, email to: universityofexcellence@gmail.com.

We have to know and comprehend . . . to perceive mentally and through creative brainstorming . . . the earth and its processes or society and its interrelationships where they are relative to our respective fields of endeavor.

MUSIC

We must then prayerfully apply this knowledge in order to subjugate the earth and have dominion over it. We are mandated to "subdue and have dominion" over the earth. This mandate is for Christians and non Christians alike: it is for humankind . . . men and women created in God’s image.

However, how much more should God’s people function in this responsibility. A Christian working a non religious occupation or vocation should be as steadfast in both their efforts and ethics as a missionary or pastor. To such a person the blessings of God will be extended for faithful stewardship.

THE MISSION MANDATE

"And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." [Matthew 28:18-20]

"And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover." [Mark 16:15]

While "subduing and having dominion" over the earth on our callings we, as Christians, are also to be "witnesses" for Christ in our various vocations or avocations.

Teaching and writing are vital aspects in fulfilling both the Mastery and the Mission Mandates.

Actually, the Mission Mandate is the Second Earth Mandate to be carried out only by Christians. Christ created the whole world and also is "upholding all things by the word of His power." [Hebrew 1:3]

In the new earth "there will be no more curse" [Revelation 21:27] and it is our job to inform people of this . . . and how they can participate in its blessings. Jesus shed His BLOOD "to take away the sin of the world" and remove the curse brought about by Adam’s disobedience.

The Mission Mandate will not be carried out in the new earth because God’s people will be serving the Lord with joy. "There shall no wise enter into it anything that defiles." [Revelation 21:27]

MUSIC

THE MILLENNIAL MANDATE

"For our homeland is in heaven; and it s from there that we are expecting a Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our humble bodies, and fashion them [give them a form] like his own glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself."
[Philippians 3:20-21]

"Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God." [Romans 8:21]

"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven." [Matthew 6:10]

The Millennial Kingdom (the Kingdom of God on Planet Earth) will transition and flow into the Ultimate Kingdom of Heaven and of God.

Study Apostle Handley’s two part series on "The Millennial Kingdom - Parts A and B" in the Archives of the The Apostles Group posted January 4th and 12th, 2004. Go to: www.realmiracles.injesus.com.

In John Chapter 14, Jesus promised to "go prepare a place for you . . . that where I am, there you may be also."

Abraham "looked for a city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God." [Hebrews 11:10] Referring to those of God’s servants who had previously fought the good fight of faith, the Bible says that God was "not ashamed to be called their God: for He has prepared for them a city." [Hebrews 11:16

Jesus told one of the thieves on the cross, "Truly I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise."
[Luke 23:43]

The Apostle Paul describes an experience he had as follows: "caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words . . ." [2 Corinthians 12:4]

I was recently at an Indian church where the pastor had described how he had died twice and was caught up into Heaven!

MUSIC

The tree of life is in the paradise of God. Read Genesis 3:22. Evidently the paradise that Adam and Eve defiled will be restored . . . AND will be even better: there will be many trees lining the banks of the great river.

"He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says unto the churches. To him that overcomes I will give to eat of the tree of life which is in the midst of the paradise of God." [Revelation 2:7]

"And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him." [Revelation 22:1-2]

The city will be about 1,500 miles wide, 1,500 miles long, and 1,500 miles high. Look on a map of your country and find two cities that are about 1,500 miles apart (or, 2,400 kilometers). Actually, the exact dimensions will be 1,380 miles in each of the three dimensions (a little over 2200 kilometers). Revelation 21:16 informs us it will be 12,000 furlongs [Greek "stadios’] in each dimension.

The streets of the city are made of pure transparent gold. [Revelation 21:18-21]

"But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him." [1 Corinthians 2:9]

While you are here on Planet earth, do your best to fulfill the Mastery Mandate and the Mission Mandate. Then you will be blessed abundantly:

1. here on earth;

2. in the Millennial Kingdom; and,

3. in the Paradise of God.

The Master will say to you: "Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord." [Matthew 25:21] Notice . . . in Luke 19:17, the parallel passage, the word "cities" is used for the areas over which you will have authority!

YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE A WONDERFUL FUTURE!

THE SECRET TO KNOWING GOD'S WILL FOR YOUR LIFE

THE SECRET

Do you know your goals for God every day when you get up in the morning? Or do you have to struggle mentally to interfuse them with your daily schedule. Maybe you are a housewife, or a businessman, or construction worker. Whatever your vocation in life, your REAL JOB (that is, your spiritual job description) was defined before the foundation of the world.

No, I am not talking about serving God by living holy or being a witness for Christ; these are definitely part of the lifestyle of a real follower of Jesus: one who has had an actual rebirth spiritually at a specific point in time and space. I'm talking about fulfilling the occupational part of your ministry, or more correctly, God's ministry through you.

You will never know this until you have spent a life defining period either alone with God or (in the case of a busy mother) in a time of consecration with God. Your spiritual occupation will define your life goals (both major and minor) and help you in your decision making processes (both major and minor): both long-term and daily.

After you begin operating in your spiritual occupation, the LORD will from time to time revise or add to your responsibilities as you develop and show proof to Him of successful stewardship. (Matthew 25:14-30) He may even instruct and lead you into a completely different spiritual occupation after a period of time. This is why we need to have times of refreshing that the Holy Bible mentions.

You must take off the wraps when you are seeking direction from God and instructions for your life and spiritual occupation. Do not be afraid to THINK BIG. Realize that God may have something in mind for you that you have never considered or thought of. That is where obedience comes into play. Also, do not share your instructions from God with other people to get feedback. If you KNOW it is God … and if it lines up with the Word of God … then DO IT!

Lots of people have been led off the path of the will of God for their life by weird people … and even by two or three confirmations of a wrong thing by weird people. By weird people I am talking about people who have no real productivity in their lives but who are always prophesying falsely to other people.

This is why you need to start every day by reading and communicating with God in His Holy Word and then in prayer. God has thoughts ABOVE your thoughts. His thoughts are NOT your thoughts.

"For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are your ways my ways, says the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts."  [Isaiah 55:8-9]

This is where, again, it is important to take off the wraps! Do not just think outside the box! God is not limited to three dimensions, or even to time and space. Just read His Word and LISTEN! Just talk to Him and LISTEN. Just pray in tongues and LISTEN! This is why Ephesians 3:20 tells us that our Heavenly Father is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.

That POWER in us is the energizing of our inner man by the renewing of the Word of God and the anointing by the Spirit of God as we listen, receive by faith, and obey. Here is where many people miss the mark: OBEY. We may be students of the Word, some even professors of theology in graduate schools; however, we may miss the mark of obedience. And, missing the mark is equated with sin. We can be obedient in lifestyle and witness; however, when God directs us to take a definitive life style changing move, are we obedient? Changing cultural settings or leaving our comfort zones are examples of such.

Isaiah tells us that the Word of God will not return void. It will cause you to be PRODUCTIVE in your spiritual occupation and it will make the way for your PROVISION. You will be productive and God will provide for you!

"For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there. But they water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower [for production] and bread to the eater [for provision], so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth." 
[Isaiah 55:10-11]

Spend time in the Word of God. It won't return VOID. It will accomplish in your life and in the earth (the nations of the world) what God pleases. God's Word will prosper in the purposes for which God sends it. Why not be a channel for His Holy Word. The Word of God shall not return to Him VOID, but it shall accomplish what He pleases, and it shall prosper in the thing for which He sends it. [Isaiah 55:10-11]

The Hebrew word for VOID used in this passage is racham which means empty, without fruit or productivity. So if you want to know your spiritual occupation, and thereby make it a lot easier for your day by day decision making, if you want to know life at the fullest, the abundant life Jesus promised you, and if you want to be productive and see the provision of God in your life, then spend time in God's Word.

Spend time in the Word of God: for your sake, and for the sake of God. What would you think if your children were so busy working but they never spent time with you? Many people in ministry are doing the same thing. Busy about God's work but spending very little time with God. When we do this we not only lose out on fellowship with the GREATEST PERSON in the universe but we lose out on our own productivity and provision.

Spend time in God's Word: things will begin to click in your life. You will be in the center of the will of God. God will provide for you. You will be productive. You will have the joy of working at your REAL JOB: the occupational ministry God chose for you before the foundation of the world. Remember, the thoughts of God are higher than your thoughts. But ... you have to KNOW His Thoughts!

The secret is in His Word!

This is why Ephesians 3:20 tells us that our Heavenly Father is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us.

That POWER in us is the energizing of our inner man by the renewing of the Word of God and the anointing by the Spirit of God as we listen, receive by faith, and obey. Here is where many people miss the mark: OBEY. We may be students of the Word, some even professors of theology in graduate schools; however, we may miss the mark of obedience. And, missing the mark is equated with sin. We can be obedient in lifestyle and witness; however, when God directs us to take a definitive life style changing move, are we obedient? Changing cultural settings or leaving our comfort zones are examples of such.

Isaiah tells us that the Word of God will not return void. It will cause you to be PRODUCTIVE in your spiritual occupation and it will make the way for your PROVISION. You will be productive and God will provide for you!

"For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there. But they water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower (for production) and bread to the eater (for provision), so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth."  (Isaiah 55:10-11)

Spend time in the Word of God. It won't return VOID. It will accomplish in your life and in the earth (the nations of the world) what God pleases. God's Word will prosper in the purposes for which God sends it. Why not be a channel for His Holy Word. The Word of God shall not return to Him VOID, but it shall accomplish what He pleases, and it shall prosper in the thing for which He sends it. (Isaiah 55:10-11)

The Hebrew word for VOID used in this passage is the word racham which means "empty, without fruit or productivity." So if you want to know your spiritual occupation, and thereby make it a lot easier for your day by day decision making. If you want to know life at the fullest, the abundant life Jesus promised you, and if you want to be productive and see the provision of God in your life, then spend time in God's Word.

Spend time in the Word of God: for your sake, and for the sake of God. What would you think if your children were so busy working but they never spent time with you? Many people in ministry are doing the same thing. Busy about God's work but spending very little time with God. When we do this we not only lose out on fellowship with the GREATEST PERSON in the universe but we lose out on our own productivity and provision.

Spend time in God's Word: things will begin to click in your life. You will be in the center of the will of God. God will provide for you. You will be productive. You will have the joy of working at your REAL JOB: the occupational ministry God chose for you before the foundation of the world. Remember, the thoughts of God are higher than your thoughts. But you have to KNOW His Thoughts!

The secret is in His Word!
