I have a very special message of encouragement and direction for you. I want to share this message with you over a delicious, free brunch. The brunch will be served Saturday, Oct. 1 at 10 a.m. at Destiny Church in Rocklin, Calif.
Encouragement: A giant harvest of souls is coming! First I will share with you the encouragement. Hold on! Do not quit! A harvest is coming. John 4:35, “Do you think the work of harvesting will not begin until the summer ends four months from now? Look around you! Vast fields of human souls are ripening all around us, and are ready now for reaping.”
How do human souls ripen? They ripen in misery. The woke movement’s biggest mistake was that they made everyone miserable. Wokeness drained the color, vitality and enjoyment out of American life. It was the God haters themselves that tilled the soil and added the ingredients that ripen vast fields of souls.
I have no doubt that this harvest is coming. I have never seen so many Californians open to Christ—not even during the Jesus Movement.
But there are specific things we must do to be able to gather this great harvest.
I want to talk to you about the right way to surrender to the operation of the Holy Spirit in miracles.
Direction: Next, I want to talk to you about how divine direction is a weapon. We live in complex times that require guidance from on high. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we need to understand what is going on and what we should do about it.
California government continues to increase its war on our faith and freedom. The pressure on Bible-based Christian leaders is at an all-time high. To make matters worse that pressure is now a crossfire. It is not just coming from the Left, but also from woke ministers who have lost their way.
First Chronicles 12 is a chapter that lists the firepower of Israel’s armies. Each tribe is described by virtue of their skill and weapons. The strangest weapon listed is not a sword or a spear. Verse 32 speaks “of the sons of Issachar who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do…”
What should we being doing in this hostile and volatile situation? To be leaders in California today, we will need the wisdom of God. That is how we can exploit the weakness of the enemy and walk through doors that cause breakthrough.
