What Went Wrong

The 3W’s Series #1

When fear has taken root in our lives, you will find little hope and definitely no faith. Fear drives faith from our hearts and actions. Faith is your response to the will of God—the purposes and action plans of God. Without faith, there is no connection to God because you are not connecting to what God wants to do. It is just that simple! (Read Hebrews chapter 11: the people of faith did what God asked them to do. They were not afraid nor were they unresponsive to God’s requests.)

This is a time for faith not fear. Fear has gripped our nation and most of the world. The coronavirus is a plague that Satan, not God, is using to strike fear in the lives of everyone, even God’s people. It is time we stir up our hope and start to believe in the unbelievable. (Mark chapter 16 is where Jesus criticized His disciple for not believing in Him—i.e. what others said about Him.) It is God through Jesus Christ that we can shake off the demon of fear from our lives and begin to ask God, “What do you want me to do?” It is time to reach out to the Father through Jesus and accept the working of the Holy Spirit in our lives. These are the days of the Holy Spirit.

Jesus asked us to receive the Holy Spirit (‘stay in Jerusalem’) and also told His disciples that the ‘Father wants to give us the Holy Spirit’. So, let’s begin doing what God wants, accept His will for our lives, and respond to God’s purpose and action plan for our lives. It is time to allow the Holy Spirit to dwell in our lives and perform the works of Christ! (ReadIsaiah 61:1-3 and especially yesterday’s article, dated Sept 13th on my blog, wwjwmtd.com.)

There is no escaping what God has planned for our lives, and we must fight against the actions and purposes of the Devil. Wake up Church, get out of your pajamas and begin to respond in faith, not in fear, to the task before us…fight against this virus, the doctrine of BLM, and politically driven hatred!

If you are responding with fear to this virus, repent! If you have not responded with prayer and Bible verses to those who support BLM, repent! If you have not found what God wants you to do, repent! If you have not put on the armor of the Holy Spirit so to fight against the hatred, repent! This is the time for God’s purposes and actions. When did the activities of Satan override the activities of God? When has Satan’s power become greater than the power of the Holy Spirit? Let us not become people without hope but mighty in believing in Christ.

David Wilkerson (and others) warned us of this virus and destruction in our streets many years ago in one of his many prophecies. I warned you of this virus and the dangers of BLM many months ago. So why are we afraid? Rise up all Christians, take hold of the promises and power of God. Battle against all that comes from Satan and watch the virus & hatred vanish away as the winds of the Holy Spirit flow over this nation. This is a spiritual battle, not a medical, cultural, or political battle. The medical profession does not really know what to do other than tell us to, “Duck and cover by staying at home and avoiding all contacts.” It is evil within our culture that tells us everything is a political fight and to look for a political solution.

If I could get 12 people to agree in prayer and the power of the Holy Spirit in each and every city in America, to rise up and fight the spiritual warfare against the virus and violence, you will see the virus, hatred, anger, and unbelief confronted and overcome in our communities. This is what Jesus wants us to do! I am praying for those who will fight—I am praying that you will not lose your faith—the faith God has given to you and Satan is trying to steal from you.
