"Like A Flood!"




"So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west,
and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the
enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD
shall lift up a standard against him."
(Isaiah 59:19)




It's a misplaced comma!  Huh?  It should read, "When the enemy shall come in, 'like a flood,' the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard ..."  Like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will subdue him.  Ah, comma's don't hinder the work of God; comma's have no effect on the Angelic hosts; comma's are a mere misstep for the Warriors of the heavens; comma's lay down when the wings rise in power; comma's flee when the winds of the Spirit blow through in waves of omnipotent power!  Open our eyes, Lord, that we may see who's fighting our battles, spearing the devil, and flinging him away from God's Saints.  Oh, it's fierce, this war going on in the upper atmosphere; we feel the pressure; we sense the swoosh every now and then as Angels of God fly between us and the enemy.  We need to remember that our prayers should be much directed at rebuking and defeating satan, binding devils, and loosing the Angels of God in our defense, and applying the Blood, the Name, and the Word  ...  and the Angels?  They're on our side!

 
We are surrounded by mighty power; how many car accidents have we been protected from?  You say, "But, I've had a few accidents that were not prevented."  How many do you not know about that could have happened?  How do you know that being late to work that day was to keep you from harm?  What about the near misses in life?  How many times of danger have been averted from you by God's Angelic warriors?  We'll know all about it by and by.  When we get to our heavenly home, the movies will unfold showing our protectors in action!  Oh, dear friend, we're living in a panoramic invisible spectrum of flying Angels, screaming devils, and the breath of God sweeping our mortal space continually.  The atmosphere around God's own is sparked with action day and night, in our behalf.

Like a Flood, the Lord raises a standard!

The Spirit of the Lord is "Living Water" and His living water does not recede!  Huh?  Waters of earth recede, they evaporate, they go down after many days of exposure to heat and elements  ...  But, the Spirit of the Lord, His living water within us never ever recedes.  It is growing, rising, building, consuming every day that we pray in tongues and let Him fill us to overflowing!  And, that Spirit within us is our protection and our power against the enemy.  When the devil comes against you, send the Holy Ghost to answer the door!  It is the power of Almighty God; it's fire shut up in our bones; it's the Spirit of the One who is alive and well living within us; it is Holy and it is Glory!

Speak to the spirits that come against you!
"For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through
God to the pulling down of strong holds."
(2 Corinthians 10:4)

Our wars are fought in the realms of the Spirit; the sins of the flesh start in the mind; the lusts of the flesh begin with the eye gate; the hindrance to our blessings sometimes must be warred in the Spirit.  Are your teens out of control?  Is your household in a turmoil?  Is your marriage suffering?  Do you struggle with depression, anger, thoughts of suicide?  Medications can help some, but mostly they do not take care of the problem.  Be filled with the Spirit of God and speak with tongues as His Spirit gives you the utterance, and then, pray in tongues, pray in the Spirit, go to battle in the Spirit, and watch the problems begin to disappear.  Have Holy Ghost filled people pray over you and with you.  Many, if not all, of the problems today can be conquered by the Spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Pray with me, won't you?  Lord Jesus, I
take authority over every sickness, disease,
spirit of infirmity, mental illness, demon 
possession and oppression, teen problem, 
marriage struggle, lust of the flesh, sins of 
the flesh, and demonic attack that would 
come against anyone reading this right now.
I bind devils and loose Your angels by the 
the Name of Jesus, the Word of Jesus, and
the Blood of Jesus NOW, and I command
the diseases, afflictions, possessions, and 
infirmities to leave NOW in the Holy and
mighty name of Jesus Christ.  Amen!

If you prayed this prayer with me and you felt a release, a healing, a deliverance, please contact promiselandchurch.net and let us know.  We will help you, and guide you to further help.  Please look up and visit theexperience238.com for information about the Holy Ghost; it is the single most important thing you can ever do in your life.  You are precious to the Lord, and it is His desire that you prosper and be in health, even as your soul prospers.

  
You are not alone!  Reach out to the Lord Jesus Christ, because He died for You; He shed His blood for You; He suffered and was beaten for You, that You might have life and that more abundantly.  Be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, and you will feel as free as a bird; your sins will be washed away, and you will be forgiven!  You say, "But you don't know what I've done."  It doesn't matter how great the Sin; the Lord's love and forgiveness is Greater; no Sin in your flesh cannot be forgiven  ...  if you just ask Him.  Remember, His Spirit is "Like A Flood" filling you, comforting you, forgiving you, loving you, saving you, and underneath are His everlasting arms!

"Here I Am To Worship"




O, LORD, we have come to praise You, magnify You, and
worship You, with hours of adoration
You're the omnipotent Holy One, the Great I Am; we sing and
shout with wonderous exuberant oblations


We offer up our heartbeats of love for You, our Savior,
and the lover of our souls
It's worship to shake the heavens and surround Your throne,
with hungry sounds untold


Earth resounds with brightness from above, as Your
glory responds to our gifts of love
Flamboyant is the essence of our worship, as Your light
fills our souls, and hovers like a dove


We welcome You, O LORD, into the sanctuary of the
thankful, as we imitate Your throne room
With earth's Holies, echoing in thunders of praise, the
likes of which one would not presume


We'll dance for joy, and leap in triumph for our King of
Kings, and Lord of Lords
With sounds of strings and instruments, voices of praise, and
Hallelujah's in heavenly chords


The time has come for Your creation to burst through the
heavens, with a return of Your Glory
For You have showered us with light, splendor, and beauty;
Your presence and essence tell the story


We are Flaming Your Name, O Lord,  for all the world to see,
with bountiful praise and song
You are ever welcome here, O Lord Jesus; come and walk
in the midst of this fiery marathon


It's our offering of love from Your garden of blooms,
fragrant with scents of hyssop
And we come, as individuals, to lay ourselves at Your
feet ,and say, "Here I Am To Worship."

"Out Of Zion"



"Out of Zion, the perfection of beauty,
God has shined."
(Psalm 50:2)

PromiseLand Church Presentation of Worship

"Gather my saints together unto me; those that have
made a covenant with me by sacrifice."
(Psalm 50:5)



Zion is like a light in the night, a  beautiful Bride adorned for her husband, and, indeed, she is  ...  she is the Church.  We have come to the time when Zion shines, The New Church Order: a restoration of the tabernacle of David, a gathering in unity of the Church of God worldwide, a consecration of the saints of God, a propagation of Spirit and Truth in every Nation, kindred, and tongue, and it all comes "Out Of Zion."


In 2 Chronicles 29:30, we find that Hezekiah commanded the Levites "to sing the words of David and of Asaph the seer."  As it is stated so aptly in Biblestudytools.com, "The great sun of David has a satellite in the moon of Asaph."  Isn't that beautiful?  It rather describes the Church today, which is symbolic of our real moon.  The Church today must be front and center stage.  Why?  Time is short; judgment is coming; the last leg of the journey is in the hands of the Saints; the doctrine of Truth, the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the sanctified and holy life of the called out, the rendering of Holy worship before the Lion of Judah, and the harvest of the world are the fundamentals of the New Church Order.




Everything is in the hands of ZION, the Church of the living God.  Worship of the Creator must compete in this day and time with a fast-moving and highly technological age, yet we must remember we are as the levites and priests, a holy generation, a chosen people.  Our sacrifice of praise must be holy and acceptable to the One in whom we live and move, and have our being, the omnipotent One, Jesus Christ our Lord.  The mighty holy principles on which God will judge the earth, and will determine the final destiny of mankind, proceed out of Zion.     

"It is beautiful in its loftiness, the joy of the whole earth. Like the utmost heights
of Zaphon is Mount Zion, the city of the Great King."
(Psalm 48:2)

The very center of the world is Jerusalem; everything proceeds from and is gauged as directional "from" mighty Jerusalem.  In the Book of Ezekiel 5:5, the "weeping" Prophet Jeremiah quotes God as saying, "This is Jerusalem; I have set her at the center of the nations."  The literal Hebrew reads, "the navel of the world."  Israel is the cornerstone of endtime Bible prophecy.  There are four prophecies in particular which identify our day as the time of the season of the Lord's return:

*1.  The worldwide regathering of the Jewish people to their homeland
which started in the 1890's and continues to this day, 
               *2.  The re-establishment of the Jewish state which occurred on May 14th, 1948, 
        *3.  The re-occupation of Jerusalem which happened on June 7th, 1967, and
           *4.  The prophecy being fulfilled right now that in the end times all the nations
                            of the world will come together against Israel over the issue of who
 will control Jerusalem.

And:
    *The resurrection of the old Roman Empire in the form of the European Union,
something the prophet Daniel predicted over 2,500 years ago, and
                                  *The rapidly growing apostasy in the Church which the Apostle Paul
predicted would happen in the end times.

What must we do?  Get in Zion!  Get in the Church!  The Church will be preserved; the Church will escape the judgment; the Church provides a safe haven of salvation by the blood of Jesus Christ shed on the cross, the infilling of God's Spirit, the Holy Ghost, baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, direction, holiness unto God, and the Church is the Bride of Christ.  Her days are numbered with glory, wonder, miracles and signs; her garments are a wardrobe of Nations, kindreds, and tongues; her strength is her faith and trust in her Groom, Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  The precious blood of the Lord Jesus Christ bought our escape from the great tribulation.  Our tribulation is now; the troubles and trials we endure now, with dignity and faith, are the sacrifice for the harvest of the world.  



We will sing the praise of the Lord; Zion will shine with brightness and splendor throughout the world, and the world will not be able to resist, so great will be the beauty of ZION!  Jerusalem's grafted in one will spread the good news to the North, South, East and West until the trumpet sounds, and Zion will rise to meet the Lord in the air, then so shall we ever be with the Lord.  Finally, the Lion of Judah will return with His saints of Zion following, and He will set His feet upon the Mount of Olives and Jerusalem will be His domain once again.  Hallelujah! 



Everything you're looking for; all of your answers; the peace that passes all understanding; the Holy Ghost and fire, being buried with Him in baptism in the name of Jesus Christ  ...  all of it issues from the perfection of beauty from the Holy One of Israel, from the soon coming King, Jesus Christ, who rules "Out Of Zion."

" End To Begin"


"Again, a new commandment I write unto you, which
is true in him and in you: because the darkness is
past, and the true light now shineth."
(I John 2:8)

"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized
every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ
for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive
the gift of the Holy Ghost."
(Acts 2:38)


Everything has an ending and some things must end in order to begin.  Huh?  Sin must end in us, in order for us to be born again and begin anew.  We become a new creation when we go under the waters of baptism in the name of Jesus Christ, and we come up NEW.  Our sins must be washed away, and it's so magnificent to feel clean, innocent, and FREE when we come up out of the water!  It is an ending of the sinful life and a beginning of a holy life in the Lord Jesus Christ.  It's beautiful; you will feel light as a feather; all shame, guilt, and sin are gone forever, because when the Lord forgives our sins, He remembers them no more; they are cast as far as from the east to the west, and we are justified.  It is "just as if I'd" never sinned.  We have ended to begin  ... 

The Lord Jesus Christ is the light of the world; He said if I be lifted up, I will draw all men unto me.  What is this stirring we feel in the Spirit realm?  What is going on in the world?  Why is there so much talk about the "end of the world?"  Why are religious freedoms being attacked at a new fast rate? We are coming to the end of darkness and the beginning of light; revival worldwide is bursting forth with new vigor.  Why is all this happening?  The Lord of Lords and King of Kings is being lifted up; and we are preparing to "End To Begin."



In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth and all that is therein; we are now embarking on the grand finale, the "end" of the "beginning"  ...  What?  We are coming to the end of the Church age and the beginining of the Kingdom.  What is the Kingdom?  The thousand years of peace, when the devil will be thrown into the Lake of Fire by ONE angel; and the tormentor, the forces of evil, and all that's lewd, crude and nude  ...  will be OVER!  The holiness of God will cover the earth and we will study war no more  ...  but, first: the end must come, the moment when the "final number" repents, speaks in the tongues of the Holy Ghost, and is baptized in the lovely name of the Lord Jesus Christ.  The final gathering of the sheaves is occurring now all over the world.  



We are in the times of harvest, and it is the greatest harvest ever reaped, since the beginning of time.  People are feeling the tug of their hearts, the moving of the Spirit, the urgency of the hour, and the ticking of the clock  ...  not just so-called spiritual people  ... everyone is feeling it  ...  because the force of darkness is being bombarded with light!  It's the light of the Church, mirrored by the light of the Bridegroom, coming for His Bride; and the Bride can already feel the reins of the white horses she'll be riding behind her Groom  ...  You say, "What in the world are you talking about?"  The Saints of God will return, following God Almighty, riding on white horses.  It's Prophecy  ...  Biblical prophecy, and it's lining up now with the endtime positioning: the arms linking Nation to Nation, people to people, kindred to kindred, language to language, and from Church to Church  ...  Why?  He's coming!

 

Hunger is increasing.  Why?  The light is growing brighter.  Why?  Worship is deepening, growing, intensifying, lengthening  ...  because everyone senses "the end" and "the beginning."  There is a hunger and gathering to the marriage  ...  Jesus Christ is coming for His Bride, the Church, and the Bride is preparing her wedding garment.  What is that?  Souls, witnessing, bringing in the sheaves, bidding all to come to the wedding  ... 

"For you were once darkness, but now
you are light in the Lord.  Live as
children of light."
(Ephesians 5:8)


The Church is glowing like the sun; her beautiful brightness is encompassing the globe, like the feathers of angels extending in light and glory.  The more she worships, the brighter she becomes; the more she rejoices, the wider heaven's gates open; the more focused she is, the more intense the response from the throne room; the more fire that is displayed upon the altar, the more angels appear; the more souls she gathers, the closer heaven gets to earth  ...  It's the end  ...  to begin  ... 


The Saints of the Most High God are getting ready and are even now in a  mode of preparing for the ride of their lives  ... the ride after the Rapture, after the tribulation period  ...  the ride behind the The One who sets His feet upon the Mount of Olives and reclaims earth.  O, the white horses for the Saints are pawing the floors of the heavens, because it's the ride anticipated for thousands of years, taking us to the "End To Begin."
