AMEN. THX.
Have left a number of congregations with control freak pastors well before that point! LOL.
Usually with some invitation to leave because the control freak leaders did not appreciate being told that they were less than perfect. LOL.
I see what you're saying. God's priorities is what you don't know.One person as you already wisely know can't do it alone. For you,I believe that the Lord will have others who will be ordained to be a part of your vision to successfully bring it to completion as Joshua did for Moses.By you simply doing as the Lord has said is the starting point.It is the beginning and the Lord is the author and the finisher of our faith. Every brick that you have laid has been credited to you as fullfilling your vision.Just as Abraham was a Father of many nations through one child and his seed is more than the stars in the sky and grains of sand; rest assure that God is true to His word and it will not return unto Him void.If God gave you this vision it shall be done. You should have no worries that you have not been faithful or that your vision has not begun and that it will not be completed.As one called of God,your faith has made you whole.
WHAT A PRECIOUS, WONDERFUL, ANOINTED ENCOURAGEMENT. THANKS TONS AND TONS AND TONS.
I agree. But I really needed to hear/see your exhortation.
Thanks enormously.

Hi B.,
To your word for Quix, I say, "So be it." AMEN and AMEN!
I also agree, it is an *anointed* word. Thank you for speaking it in obedience to the Holy Spirit.

In adding to this post....I found it interesting that Rev. 17 was mentioned. God's people are going to HAVE to be able to identity her. Or they can not do or understand what follows in Rev. 18, where He says "Come out of her my people." They can not "Come out" of what they can not see they are in....blinded by the spirit of religion. We were warned to "Beware the leaven of the Pharisee."
IT IS IMPERATIVE to search and understand WHO or WHAT Rev. 17 IS!!
The time is on us to repent and to get the leaven of false religion OUT of us. The Body of Christ is falling for far to many pagan practices and LOVING it. Rev. 18 goes on to tell you what will happen to those who won't or refuse to "Come out".
This is not scripture, therefore, I have trouble acknowledging it. It purports to be from the Lord, but I know that only scripture is infallible/inerrant.
Given that this is fallible and errant, where are the errors?
Just out of curiosity....Who in this thread can tell me WHO Rev. 17 is, can you identify her?
Joel Osteen? He's great. I really like his positive messages and his new book. M
America NEEDS to repent and fall on its face before God. We will reap HIS vengeance if we don't. We had all better take these prophetic words more seriously than we do. God is finished with our playing church and our shallowness of living. We're poor in the spirit but rich in THINGS, things that don't matter. It will all burn in the end.
I love listening to Joel Osteen. Get his book. It's called Live Your Best Life Now, I believe. It's very encouraging for the Body of Christ. M

Positive messages amid end-times deception and coming judgment....how sweet. I guess that goes along with God saying His true prophets would be well loved, popular and make lots of money. I would say things are right on track.
All these are wonderful Quix. Did you get the one I sent on what's going on in the Ukraine? A short synopsis, the president, who was almost murdered by poison, led his nation in prayer at his inauguration, I believe. He got on his knees and prayed for his country. His prime minister, a woman, is a Christian and spirit-filled! Tell me God's not moving in the Ukraine. I was so encouraged by that.
Thanks for all the prophetic words, dear Quix.
I certainly pray to be part of the remnant! I'm also looking forward to a healing, physical, emotional, and every other kind. I know it's going to happen. I, too, will copy this for a friend who has been looking for a breakthrough for a number of years. Maryxxx
We had a young girl from Mexico who was 'adopted' by spiritual parents after their daughter met her on a missions trip to her city. She had a dream to build a dancing school for the children in her area. She came to the US to fulfill that dream. She came to our church for a few years on and off and danced in our dance team. At the age of 23, she was tragically killed in an automobile accident. You may wonder why she didn't fulfill her dream, but people who knew her picked up the mantle and now they are building the dance school in her memory in that city. When God calls someone to do something, it will get done, either by the person He's called or others who want to help fulfill the vision. She was such a blessing. My husband called her Princess. We were devestated when she died. We went to her funeral, to one of the largest churches in Rochester, and it was packed full. Hundreds of people had been impacted by this little ray of sunshine from Mexico. You don't have to be old to be a blessing. I too believe that children will be the next group of people to be touched and anointed by God. They will usher in the Kingdom of God and that's why satan is so bent on destroying them. Pray for our young people.
Pope Benedict (then Cardinal Ratzinger) identified the harlot (in my humble opinion) just before the conclave, referring to a "dictatorship of relativism".
If there are no absolutes, there can be neither "right" nor "wrong". See the voices that cried out against America - WITHIN AMERICA - after 9/11, justifying the actions of that day... That is the ugly head of relativist ideology.
Sorry, but there won't be any time to drink the koolaid. You'll be running for your very life!
He's encouraging us to live the way Christ would have us to live, even in these end times. Why don't you read it before you criticize?

So relativist ideology has all the blood of the saints on her hands and is the mother of many harlots? Calls herself the Queen of Heaven?
I think you should read Rev. 17 for yourself and ask God who she is.
He seemed to EXPECT you to know or He would not soon after command you to "Come out of her".....he says MY PEOPLE.
