In Matthew 6:33, we have the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, "Seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you." Yes, it was taught by Christ that the kingdom of God is something that we should all strive to enter into - that is, we should make it a priority in our lives. None of us are born naturally into the kingdom of God, but the good news is that the kingdom of God is as close as a humble, repentant heart. Have YOU entered that kingdom?

Welcome to the sixth-third episode of Equipping You in Grace.

What young, aspiring pastors should do if they suspect their sense of calling is just an emotional high or temporary phase. How those called to ministry should measure their own gifts. To what extent does a person need to display the qualifications in 1 Timothy 3 in order to be ready to begin pastoral ministry. What readers should do if they are still unsure about their calling after reading Dr. Allen's book. What role the gospel plays in helping a man sense a calling to ministry and remain qualified for pastoral ministry. The place of friendship in pastoral ministry. Help for those who have been affirmed for pastoral ministry by their local church but can't find a position and how they should continue to prepare for pastoral ministry. About the Author: DR.

The Holy Spirit will guide you into ALL truth: spiritual, economic, relational and political truth. God many times will give a prophet a “feeling” or a vision that is panoramic and unfolding for cycles or events. The purpose of this podacst-teaching is two-fold: 1. To describe HOW the ministry of the seer operates; and, 2. To warn you of Satan's tools. I will cover the above in reverse order—and, at the same time—build upon what I have been teaching recently: Stay in the Peace Zone. _________________________________ PROPHETS AND SEERSPEACE, POWER AND PRODUCTION Peace is power. Power yields productivity. Do NOT let the devil scare you with false impressions! Sometimes you may feel that God is warning you about something … when it may be the devil trying to scare you. You may be ready to make—or already in the midst of making—an important decision. God never scares you, but He can—and does—warn you at times. So, how do you know the difference?! First of all, if you sense fear you should speak to it. Fear is a spirit and, therefore, is subject to the Name of Jesus (Yeshua). Speak to the spirit of fear in the Name of Jesus and command it to depart—to leave you alone, and stop bothering you—then tell it that Jesus, the Messiah, is your Lord. Then, speak the Word of God: “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” – 2 Timothy 1:7 You need to have perfect peace in these matters … especially in decision making. It is important for your future because you do NOT want to “bind” youself to a BAD decision. Here are some scriptures for you to receive peace into your human spirit: “You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You: because he trusts in you.” – Isaiah 26:3 “I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, says the LORD; and I will heal him.” – Isaiah 57:19 “Be in anxiety about nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will keep your hearts and minds through Messiah Jesus.” – Philippians 4:6-7 Your enemy, Satan, does NOT want you going into NEW endeavors for the LORD, or receiving blessings, or advancing in the Kingdom. As a matter of fact, he (the devil) is scared of YOU and of any advancement you make. Every time someone receives Christ as their Lord, it positions the devil and his hosts one soul closer to the Lake of Fire. So, after you have taken authority over any spirit of fear, you should have peace about continuing in your endeavor or plans. If you have read my book, Decision Making 101 – Know for Sure, you will realize that you should have peace—know for sure—before starting a new endeavor. However, if it is God warning you, you will still have an uneasy “gut feeling” about the matter. The Holy Spirit will be speaking to your heart—your human spirit—warning you about the situation. God wants you to come out “on top,” my friend. So ask Him for a confirmation. Do NOT go forward until you receive a confirmation that you KNOW is from God. This is when you need to be very careful NOT to do something just because another person tells you to do it. I am NOT talking here about seeking wisdom or advice. I'm talking about NOT even telling anyone about the matter you are concerned with. It's better sometimes that nobody knows—that way, if you receive a confirmation or two or three when nobody knew you were seeking it, it will be a “sign” to you that God is warning you. Now, with the previous in mind, I want to discuss HOW what we have just learned applies to the office of the prophet and/or seer. In creative prophecy—when you are decreeing prophetically—loosing MIRACLES and EXPLOITS into nations and geopolitical realms (for example, decreeing confusion and frustration into ISIS and terrorist groups or individuals and calling forth salvation of apostles from these groups), you will NOT have to be concerned about this. You already KNOW FOR SURE what the will of God is. But when you SEE—a vision, either ocular or mental—a situation, whether it is static (one time) or panoramic (in cycles, like the economy), do NOT give it out—release the vision—publicly unless you KNOW FOR SURE it is from God. Keep it to yourself and ACT upon it if applicable. If it is God wanting you to share the vision—remember, He wants to convey His message—He will make it known to you. You can never go wrong waiting IF you are NOT sure! If the devil is NOT wanting you to release the prophecy, he may try to scare you. As previously discussed, speak to the spirit of fear, and bind it in Jesus' name. Now … let's look at some Scriptures that are relevant to the office of seer: “I am the seer,” Samuel replied. “Go up ahead of me to the high place, for today you are to eat with me, and in the morning I will send you on your way and will tell you all that is in your heart. – 1 Samuel 9:19 The Lord warned Israel and Judah through all his prophets and seers:“Turn from your evil ways. Observe my commands and decrees, in accordance with the entire Law that I commanded your ancestors to obey and that I delivered to you through my servants the prophets.” – 2 Kings 17:13 “As for the events of Rehoboam’s reign, from beginning to end, are they not written in the records of Shemaiah the prophet and of Iddo the seer that deal with genealogies? There was continual warfare between Rehoboam and Jeroboam.” – 2 Chronicles 12:15 "Seer" is a name sometimes applied to the prophets because of the visions granted to them. It is first found in 1 Samuel 9:9. It is afterwards applied to Zadok, Gad, etc. (2 Samuel 15:27; 24:11; 1 Chronicles 9:22; 25:5; 2 Chronicles 9:29; Amos 7:12; Micah 3:7). God is the same; He does NOT change. He still uses seers today. However, you must be very careful WHO is informing YOU of a vision. Personally, I do NOT give any credence to a vision that someone else had unless I know that person … know their lifestyle … know their ministry … and trust them implicitly. Even then, I confirm with the inner witness of my spirit and with the Word of God. I never act immediately on the vision someone gives me, but IF I trust them, I remember (or, store) the vision and—IF and WHEN a situation arises in the future that seems to have relevance to that vision—I ponder and pray about it. Many times it can be a warning of something or someone to avoid. I have had a seer's advice (a message from the LORD) that I forgot to heed and it caused me a lot of trouble. It was a “precise” vision of what NOT to do in certain trust and communication: it was specific. So, remember … peace is power. Know for sure. Stay in the peace zone. Prophesy in the demonstration and power of the Holy Spirit. And, decree creative prophecies for End Time EXPLOITS and MIRACLES. Bless the nations … and God will bless YOU. ______________________________________________  CHECK THIS TEACHING OUT:  If you're NOT sure, then don't ...  ______________________________________________ I recommend the three books below to help you gain an End Time powerful and visionary ministry to work hand-in-hand with God, creating and releasing EXPLOITS into the nations.
