THE FORERUNNER MINISTRY~ARE YOU A FORERUNNER?

Forerunners Are Messengers Who Prepare The Way Of The Lord; By Preparing The Nations… And the Remnant Church For Jesus’ Return!

John The Baptist Was A Forerunner Before Jesus’ First Coming And Ministry. John Was A Burning And Shining Lamp. Jesus Described John As The Greatest Man In History. No One Ever Obeyed God More Consistently; Nor Prepared More Diligently For Ministry; Than John The Baptist. “Among Those Born Of Women; There Has Not Risen One Greater Than John.” (Matt: 11:11) John The Baptist Is One Of Our Best Examples~ Of How To Be A Forerunner.

Daniel The Intercessor And Prophet~ Is Also Another Amazing Forerunner~ But We Will Look At His Life In A Future Blog.

At A Very Young Age; John Knew Of The Call Of God On His Life. Before John Was Even Conceived; John’s Father; Zacharias… A Priest; Was Visited By An Angel. The Angel Explained To Zacharias The Ministry That His Son John ~Would Perform In His Life. (Luke 1: 11-17)
John Knew From His Youth; That He Was A Forerunner… Because His Father Zacharias… Retold Him The Story Over And Over… Of His Angelic Visitation And The Call Of God On His Life… ~Yeah~ Even Before He Was Miraculously Conceived… In His Mothers Barren Womb!

This Is A Lesson For Fathers To Teach Their Children About Their Destiny In The Kingdom Of God~ Over and Over; To See The End-Time Forerunners Emerge In This Age!Surely His John’s Father Revealed the Scriptures To Him; Scripture That Foretold~ That He Was To Be Prepared In The Wilderness~ Separated (set apart) For The Kingdom Of God; As Declared In The writings Of Isaiah. “I Am The Voice Of One Crying In The Wilderness; Make Straight The Way Of The LORD,” As The Prophet Isaiah Prophesied. (John 1: 22-23)

John Prepared For About (20) Years; For Only (2) Years Of Public Ministry.
Today~ In Our Lifetime~ God Is In The Process Of Raising Up Many Forerunners… To Prepare The Way; For Jesus’ Second Coming!

Forerunners Make Known God’s Plans So That People Will Understand The Paradigms Of God’s End-Time Prophecies; That Are Seen Throughout The Scriptures; Especially In The Book Of Revelation.

Then Why Is It; That So Many Saints~ Refuse To Study~ Nor Are They Even Willing To Casually Discuss The Book Of Revelation?

Undoubtedly In My Humble Opinion; There Must Be Spiritually Demonic Forces At Work. Including ~The Fear Of Man~ ~Hidden Sin~ ~Complacency In Their Kingdom Walk~ ~Slothfulness~ ~Selfish Pride; That They Would Not Lose Face Because Of Their Previously Believed And Taught ~False Doctrines~ ~On End Times~.

~Whatever Their Excuse Is~ It Doesn't Fly~In God's Eyes!

It Wasn’t Written To The Unbelievers In The World. “The Book Of The Revelation Of The Lord Jesus Christ; Was Obviously Written To The End-Time Church!

Is The Book Of Revelation Important? How Important Is It? Then Why Should We Just Ignore It And Write It Off As; Not Relevant For Today?

Jesus Himself; Told Us To Take Heed; And To Watch And Pray When We See All The These Things That We Are Seeing In The Earth Today. It Is Totally Amazing To Me; That “His Church” Would Not Be Willing To Even Study The Book Of Revelation! What Is That All About? Let Us Continue This Subject At A Later Date; When I Have Some More Time. GOD BLESS YOU!

~ALABASTER WORSHIP~
~Extravagant ~Costly~ Worship~

There Are Very Few People… Who Truly Experience The Heart Of Worship. Many Say… “For What Purpose Is This Waste?”

Six Days Before Jesus Was To Be Crucified And Buried~ Mary Showed Her Love And Worship For Jesus~ When She Broke Open The Alabaster Flask & Anointed Jesus’ Feet With One Pound Of Expensive Spikenard Oil~ And Then She Wiped His Feet With Her Hair. And The House Was Filled With The Fragrance Of The Oil. Then One Of His Disciples, Judas Iscariot, Said “Why Was This Fragrant Oil Not Sold For Three Hundred Denarii (A Years Wages); And Given To The Poor?” This He Said; Not Because He Cared For The Poor; But Because He Was A Thief; And He Held The Treasury Box Of Money… And He Used To Take What Was Put Into It. Then Jesus Said “Let Her Alone; She Has Kept This ~(Expensive Fragrant Oil)~ For The Day Of My Burial.” “For The Poor You Have With You Always; But Me You Do Not Have Always.” (John 12:1-11)

There Is Also Another Account Of Jesus Being Anointed With Oil; On Another Occasion; Just Two Days Before His Burial. (Matt.26: 6-13). The Scriptures State… And When Jesus Was In Bethany; (Just Outside Of Jerusalem) At The House Of Simon The Leper…

A Woman Came To Him Having An Alabaster Flask Of Very Costly Fragrant Oil, And She Poured It On His Head; As He Sat At The Table.” But When His Disciples Saw It; They Were Indignant, Saying… “To What Purpose Is This Waste? For This Fragrant Oil Might Have Been Sold For Much, And Given To The Poor.”

It Is Hard To Believe That It Had Only Been (4) Days Since Jesus Had Told Them To Let The Other Woman Alone~ For Worshipping Him In The Same Manner! It Must Have Been Difficult Even For Jesus~ To Have Faith In These Guys At Times. But We Should Not Judge Them~ Until We Get All The Logs Out Of Our Own Eyes. Where Are Our Hearts When We See Someone Who Radically Worships Before God?

So We See… It Was Not Only Judas Iscariot; Who Complained And Murmured About The Cost Of This Woman’s Extravagant Worship. But In Fact; Even “His Disciples” Did. Then We Also Know… That Jesus Rebuked Them… Saying~ “Don’t Trouble The Woman… She Has Done A Good Work For Me… You Have The Poor Always… Pouring This Fragrant Oil On My Body; She Did For My Burial… Wherever This Gospel Is Preached In The Whole World… What This Woman Has Done Will Also Be Told As A Memorial To Her.”

Other Women Came To Anoint Jesus; Only (5) Days Later. They Brought Expensive Spices With Them To Anoint His Body; (3) Days After The Crucifixion.

~

But The Tomb Was Empty~ The Power Of Death Could Not Hold Him~

~Jesus Christ~ Has Risen From The Dead~
~Believe On The Son Of God~ And You Too~ ~Can Receive Eternal Life~

Praise To The ~King Of Kings~ You Are My Everything…

~24 HOURS~ OF~WORSHIP AND INTERCESSION~

“A Vision Of Unity ~ In The Body Of Christ~ Through Worship And Intercession.”

To Worship The Father In Spirit And Truth: Is Much More Than Just Playing Instruments And Singing Beautiful Songs To The Lord God Almighty… That Is Only The Beginning!

Worship Is Having A Heart… That Searches For The Heart Of God. King David Was A Man; After God’s Own Heart. We Want Our Hearts; To Be Like God’s Own Heart. It Is When We Spend Time… In The “Secret Place”; Of His Presence; In The Intimate Chambers Of Our Bridegroom And King; Our Hearts Grow Deeply In Love With Him.

As A New Creation; You Have Been Called To Present Your Bodies As A Living Sacrifice; You Have Been Created To Love And Worship God. You Have Been Chosen To Go Into A Much Deeper Level Of Intimacy With Him. When All The Others Leave… You Choose To Remain In His Presence! He Loves You… Oh… How He Loves You!

Extravagant Worship Is Costly… It Will Cost You Everything… And There Are Very Few Who Are Willing To Pay That Price. Obedience To God’s Word… Is Greater Than Any Earthly Sacrifice We Might Offer Him. The Greatest Commandment Is To Love… The Lord Your God… With All Your Heart; Mind; Soul; And Strength… And Then Also Love Your Neighbor; As You Love Yourself. Until We Have Obediently Fulfilled The First Part Of This Commandment; We Will Never Be Able To Fulfill The Second Part.

~THE 24 HOUR WORSHIP HISTORY~ (Despise Not Your Small Beginnings)

This County Wide Event… Started Over (4) Years Ago In October 2004. When One Man Believed That He Heard God Asking Him To “Set Apart” A 24 Hour Sabbath Time… On The Last Friday Of Every Month. It Would Be A Time For Him To Be Alone With God. It Would Allow Him To Worship; Fast; And Pray; While Studying The Scriptures. This Would Take Place At The Church Building To Help Eliminate Many Of The Distractions Of Daily Life. During The First Few Months; Most Of The 24 Hours; Was Spent Alone In Fellowship With The Holy Spirit. The Desire Of His Heart And His Prayer To God… Was That He Would Faithfully Be… 100% In The Kingdom Of God… 100% Of The Time.

It Is In Our Times Of Aloneness; That We Will Find Our “Oneness” With Him. Each One Of Those “Faith Heroes” In The Great Cloud Of Witnesses; All Had To Learn This Basic Spiritual Truth In Their Lifetimes. Every Person That Is Mentioned By Name In The Bible; From Enoch In The Book Of Genesis; To The Apostle John On The Isle Of Patmos In The Book Of Revelation; Often Experienced Times Of Aloneness During Many Seasons Of Their Lives. If You Are Truly Going To Serve God In Your Life; There Will Be Many Times When You Feel Forsaken By Others. Our Attitude Must Always Be; That If God Told Us To Do It… We Will Be Obedient; Regardless If Anyone Else Comes Along Side Us.

It Was After A Few Faithful Months; Alone In The Presence Of God... That This Mans Pastor; Had A Vision Of Unity For The Churches Of Lake County, CA. It Would Be A Time Of Gathering Churches Together For 24 Hours Of Corporate Worship; With Only One Agenda; To Worship The Lord! All Of Our Denominational Doctrines Were To Be Left Outside The Doors Of The Church Buildings. We Would Come Together For “One Thing” To Pour Out Our Love… And Our Worship… Upon The Only Worthy One!

~The Vision Continues~

The 24 Hours Of Worship & Intercession; Has Now Become A County Wide Vision. Through Our Times Of Extended Corporate Worship; We Have Experienced; An Unprecedented Degree Of ~Unity~ & ~Love~ In “The Body Of Christ” In Our Region Of Lake County, CA. We Have Become One Big Family In God; As Brothers And Sisters; Growing Together In Our Love For God & Each Other! Every Month The Family Grows; As New Churches Link-Up. We Are Experiencing An Amazing Work Of Grace And Unity; Through The Power Of The Holy Spirit. PRAISE GOD!

~Five Wise And Five Foolish Virgins~
~Now Is The Time To Purchase Your Oil~

Awake… Awake: Get Yourself Ready For The Bridegroom Is Coming… The Bridegroom Is Coming!!! Are You Prepared For His Return?
Either We Are Ready… Or We Aren’t Ready. Are We Burning Passionately… In Love With Our Jesus… Or Has Our Lantern Gone Dim? How Is Our Oil Reservoir? All Ten Virgins Had Some Oil In Their Lamps To Trim… But Only Five Had More Than Enough. The Five Foolish Virgins; Had The “Get By” Mentality Of Thinking That They Had “Just Enough.” You Can’t Get Your Oil From Another Person… You Have To Get It For Yourself!

We Should Never Buy Into “Status Quo” Christianity… Of Comparing Our Walk With God; To That Of Others Who Are Around Us. We Should Run To Win The Race… As Forerunners… With Perseverance; Diligence And Endurance In Our Daily Pursuit Of God… Anything Less Is Mere Compromise.

The Extended Time That You Spend In The Presence Of Your Bridegroom King… The Greater Your Oil Reserve. It Is Only In This Place Of Intimacy… In The Secret Place Of Our Beloved; That You Will Know And Share His Heartfelt Desires. Jesus The Bridegroom Is Longing For His Bride... Don’t Keep Him Waiting For You... Enter In… And Experience The Beauty Of His Holiness! He Loves You… Oh How He Loves You! ~

The World Goverment Systems Have
Refused To Acknowledge The Lord God Almighty...

...Our Nation Is In A Critical State...
Because As A Nation & As A People
We Have Not Obeyed God!!!

"You Have Forsaken Me" Says The Lord.
"You Have Walked After Other gods; And Served Them and Worshiped Them... And You Have Forsaken Me; You Have Not Listened To My Voice Or Obeyed My Word. "

"You Have Done Worse Than Your Fathers;
For Behold; Each One Walks According To
The Imagination Of His Own Evil Heart;
So That No One Listens To Me"
(Jeremiah 16: 11-12)

Where Are The Watchmen On The Wall
Those Who Are Called To Stand In The Gap
For Our Nation And The People.

"If My People Who Are Called By My Name;
Will Humble Themselves;
And Pray; And Seek My Face;
And Repent And Turn From Their Wicked Ways; Then Will I Hear From Heaven And Forgive Their Sin And Heal Their Land".

"Now My Eyes Will Be Open And My Ears Attentive To Prayer Made In This Place".

"For Now I Have Chosen
And Sanctified This House: That My Name May Be There Forever; And My Eyes And My Heart
Will Be There Perpetually".
(2 Chronicles 7: 14-16)


IT IS TIME... TO RUN TO THE BATTLE
WITH THE HEART OF DAVID
IN THE NAME OF THE LORD OF HOSTS
TO DEFEAT THE SPIRITUAL GIANT'S
WHO HAVE DEFILED OUR NATION.
(1 SAMUEL 17: 36-51)
