This message touches at the heart of Applied Strengths Ministry (ASM) and is, I believe, todays answer for the world via the church. The authentically born-again, bride of Christ, filled and overflowing with the Holy Spirit, running first and foremost to serve the Kingdom of God in power that will shake this planet to repentance and usher in a harvest not yet seen by the eyes of this world church. You know every corner on this planet must have one of these right? Nope. Walgreens and fast food restaurants have the corners for now. And why not, doesn’t the world rush in wherever the church leaves presence voids? Yup.
So how high does my horse have to be for me to declare that ASM is the “answer?” I mean who would say such a thing but an arrogant fool. Well I’m no fool but for Christ, and I have read the stories in the Bible and believe even the Index to be flawlessly true, so given that God seems to respond to an aching heart for Him and for relationship with Him, it is quite possible that what I have stated is true. Now it won’t be because I have the tools to bring it about, nope, it will be because there is power in the kingdom of God. Now I am not talking about magic, nope…I know I have got to stop saying nope and yup, but side track me not, I must remain focused so as to finish typing this out.
Can we go on a non-drug induced trip? Ok so let’s go. Imagine being in heaven right now seeing the earth and all that is going on about it. No sin, selfishness, flesh to impede your vision or sight, just pure looksee loo. And in that moment you get a revelation of the distinction or difference between the power that resides on earth and the power that resides right where you are sitting. And what if God asked you for your opinion on how you might plan on setting up a ministry that would be effective for your generation. Now don’t forget you are right then aware of the difference in power, the spiritual tools available to you, Gods provisional and logistical assistance, the horde of angles and fiery chariots and horses at your disposal, and because you can see unobstructed in that moment, you can see the lost and wondering sheep.
Well so you see in that brief moment you could have quite the strategy for success right? But wait a minute. Something was missing in Heaven that only existed on the earth. Faith, oh but you know it that faith to believe and to call those things that don’t exist as though they do. Now my advantage just shifted didn’t it? I can see and believe it from Gods perspective right here on earth.
There is a movie, and I’ll wrap up this intro with this, called 300. Now that is one of the coolest battling against the hordes of creeping things and people who are bent on unjust murder movies out there. I know Lord of The Rings has lots of creepness in it also, but no this 300 movie as cool as it is, pails in comparison to what I want this ministry to do to the kingdom of darkness that is currently swaying the whole of this planet as I sit and type this out. With revival and deliverance, and salvations comes warfare almost equal in proportion. I am ready because I am not ready. The Bible says when sin abounds then grace abounds more. Grace is a fiery weapon infused with the love of God and when exercised properly can shake the planet straight up for God. Listen, and plant a seed, and help me build this ministry. We are limitless and have yet to see what our great and mighty God can do and to what lengths He will go for the lost souls of His clan.
