Cultural Catastrophe

For Those Who Run Part 8 I would like to remind you of our formula for

critical mass in this generation. The voices of 

the few have inundated our culture so that

the passive and uninformed have embraced

these idealisms as the whole.

Reformation+ Revival+ Remnant =Spiritual Revolution

Cultural Catastrophe

For Those Who Run Part 8 Spiritual Revolution is a correction of the

system, not an overthrow of the existing form

of government.

Spiritual Revolution = Spiritual Restoration

There has been much conversation among

theologians concerning the what is known as

the full restoration of the church or in some

circles full restoration of the gifts.

I want to tell you that we have everything that we

need, the latter house has arrived. Hell hath stormed

the gates of this city only to fall into prophetic defeat.

You make up that house, and prophetically everythingis being shaken, you want to know what is happening,

theres a whole lot of shaking going on. I feel mywhole plausibility structure of belief is being shaken

and many days I reel to and fro. Here is the warning to

the principalities and dominions, Watch out when Ifind out who I am in Christ..

Dross is being burned off of our lives, God isadministering eye salve, how and what and who youhave built your foundation on is being challenged.Why, so that we can make a run to impact this culture

for the King and the coming kingdom. We are still going to minister on the system and some

reform needed, but we do that so that our vision isclear. Any culture in captivity, or compromise canthave vision, consequently they cant see things the way

that God sees them. Any culture that rejects Godsdealings is turned over to hardness and blindness.Why, so that God can show His power to His people

Remember one translation says that Where

there is no vision, the people cast off 

restraint.

I am constantly reminded of Romans 11, We

are going to minister today on The Way of 

Vision..

Exodus 31:2-6 (King James Version)

2See, I have called by name Bezaleel the sonof Uri, the son of Hur, of the tribe of Judah:

3And I have filled him with the spirit of God,in wisdom, and in understanding, and in

knowledge, and in all manner of 

workmanship,

4To devise cunning works, to work in gold,

and in silver, and in brass,

5And in cutting of stones, to set them, and in

carving of timber, to work in all manner of 

workmanship.

6And I, behold, I have given with him Aholiab,

the son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan: and

in the hearts of all that are wise hearted I have

put wisdom, that they may make all that I

have commanded thee;

For Those Who Run Part 8 The Bible reveals the impartation of wisdom from God in order to

create and make all that was needed for true worship to occur.

Deuteronomy 4:6 (King James Version)

6Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and yourunderstanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all thesestatutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise andunderstanding people.

It was Solomons gift of wisdom that moved the Queen of Shebawhen she came to visit his kingdom.

1 Kings 10:7 (King James Version)

7

Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes hadseen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom andprosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard.

1 Kings 10:24 (King James Version)

24And all the earth sought to Solomon, to

hear his wisdom, which God had put in hisheart.

The book of Proverbs re-iterates over and over

again the foundation of life is based on

wisdom.

What is wisdom, wisdom is the impartation

of Gods solutions to any culture. It was what

Joseph and Daniel imparted that changed the

culture in which they lived.

I like to think of wisdom as Gods way of living

in this society. When we impart wisdom, we

gain influence. Our suggestions have power

because they bring results.

Proverbs 3:13-19 (King James Version)

13Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, andthe man that getteth understanding.

14For the merchandise of it is better than themerchandise of silver, and the gain thereof 

than fine gold.

15She is more precious than rubies: and all thethings thou canst desire are not to be

compared unto her.

16Length of days is in her right hand; and in her

left hand riches and honour.

17Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her

paths are peace.

18She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon

her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.

19The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth;

by understanding hath he established the

heavens.

Wisdom is comprised of integrity, creativity and

excellence..

Integrity is the nature of Gods character formed

in us, it can be even titled as holiness or thestate of being holy. The separation that occurs inthe believer is not mandated by rules or

regulations but out of a heart after God.

It is the definition of why we are called priests

Priests are chosen of God, separated for Hispurposes, participants in offerings unto God

1 Corinthians 2

1And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speechor of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.

2For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ,

and him crucified.

3And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

4And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man'swisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:

5That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the powerof God.

6Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not thewisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come tonought:

12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but thespirit which is of God; that we might know the things thatare freely given to us of God.

13Which things also we speak, not in the words which

man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghostteacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

14But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spiritof God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can heknow them, because they are spiritually discerned.

15

But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.

16For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he mayinstruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

For Those Who Run Part 8

Here is the crux of the matter, we are trying to live in

this world and impact the culture with only half of the

solution. We concentrate on the Spirit and yet are notfollowing Gods solutions in our everyday lives.

Wisdom and Supernatural create the two edgedsword of affecting our culture

Much of the church is double minded and unstablebecause we want the supernatural and we dont even

follow biblical principles of living our daily lives

You cant live your lives with the solutions of thisculture and have the way of vision as your destiny.

The way of vision.. I have defined it in three

categories

The Journey..

James 1:2-8 (King James Version)

2My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations;

3Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

4But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect andentire, wanting nothing.

5If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all

men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Faith

6But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.

For he that wavereth is like a wave of the seadriven with the wind and tossed.

7For let not that man think that he shall

receive any thing of the Lord.

8A double minded man is unstable in all his

ways.

Faith never fails, I believe that my faith in Godwho is the object of my faith always creates pathsand ground in my walk. Paths for maybe the nextgeneration or ground that can bring forth fruit.Faith is based on my believing in God, His Wordand His Ability not on the results of myaccolades. Jesus is the answer to all myquestions. Let it be said of us as the church

of the latter days as it was said of the heroes of faith, that they without us should not be madeperfect

We are pressing in to bring tomorrow into

today as believers, however I want the

stability of our journey and our faith to be

imparted into the next generation of 

believers. Regardless of what I want to

experience in my lifetime it is more important

to stay abreast of His program. I want toobtain the report of a Hero..

Ephesians 3:8-10 (King James Version)

8Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is

this grace given, that I should preach among the

Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;

9And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the

mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath

been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:

To the intent that now unto the principalities andpowers in heavenly places might be known by the

church the manifold wisdom of God,

When the church walks in wisdom we serve

notice on the earth that heaven is real

We are the delegated authorities for thekingdom of heaven here and now..

Principalities, dominions and power held in

wickedness now become subject to the church

which is His body..

Matthew 13:54 (King James Version)

54And when he was come into his own country,he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch

that they were astonished, and said, Whencehath this man this wisdom, and these mightyworks?

You and I have the potential to operate this twoedged sword of Wisdom and the Supernatural

because of the giving of the Holy Ghost. With thebalance of these gifts of God we can experiencethe vision that seems so elusive at times.

So it is with wisdom and the supernatural..

They combined will enable us to have vision

beyond our lifetime and into the next.. Pauls

prayer to the Ephesians gives us more light on

what we should see.

The nature of the church and the power of 

God will impact our culture

The Invisible

The invisible is what the true visionary sees.

The spirit of revelation opens our eyes toGods solutions, the wisdom is how we speak

that into the lives of people for change.

Mountains always represent a place of stronghold, a fortress of thought, geographical

location, but the key is not easily conquerable

because of the elevated position. Ezekiel 34:6 (King James Version)

mountains, and upon every high hill: yea, myflock was scattered upon all the face of theearth, and none did search or seek after them.
