God will raise up the tabernacle David again. This consists of men and women who seek God in the manner that He deserves. These are people who willingly offer themselves entirely to the Lord and expect nothing back but His presence. God dwells with ordinary people who concern themselves with the depth of the need and give all they have for the cause of Christ. The Tabernacle of David is a people who posses the heart of God and then take His heart to a fallen humanity.

Yes is such a powerful word. There are two types of yes. The first is an automatic yes; this is a person who says a quick yes to God and does not back up their words with obedience. This automatic yes says I will do but never does and says I will go but never goes. The second yes says I will go and goes where God is directing them and begins to do what God is calling them to do. In these last days we should be found in the Father's vineyard laboring and scattering the seed of His Word so that the entire world will know that Jesus Christ is alive. The blessings to the nations are found in an obedient yes. Will you say yes with your mouth and obey with your feet?

There is a real war going on and many of us are feeling the affects of it. In order for us to get on the victory side of this war we must accept Jesus' invitation to share a personal relationship with Him. When we receive this offer we are on the side where we can take the victory. In the presence of our enemies and in the midst of our struggles God will prepare a table for us. This is the communion table where, because of His shed blood, He has provided all the nutrients and strength for us. We need to see this in the dark times.

The enemy of our souls would have us believe that the deck is stacked against us in this society. We are expected to believe that we are overwhelmed by the philosophy of this age. However, Jesus, in teaching us how to address God, also exposed us to the blessings and benefits that He won for us on Calvary. In Him, we realize that everything that we need to overcome temptation is found in our communion with God.

Satan's plan for every true believer in Christ is to take away our spiritual vision and move us into a profitless labor where there is no outflow of the supernatural life. If our separation to God for the purpose of freeing others from oppression is willfully and unwittingly forfeited then we will become weak in the hands of the enemy. We are called to be separated unto God and empowered by the Spirit of God for the sake of every lost soul. If we would know the Lord's strength we must give Him our all and embrace His plan for our life.

When we begin to pray for those who are lost God will sometimes answer by sending a storm into their lives. During this storm our friends and family who have in past times rejected us will come to us for help in their time of need. God will allow us to begin to guide them with Godly direction and provision. When we are gripped by God for the souls of men He will gives us strength and wisdom to be broken bread for them. The only way we can make it on this journey is to understand that the suffering we go through is worth it for those who don't know Jesus yet.

The whole moral law calls us to be separate from the thinking of the world. If you settle in a certain comfort zone and begin to focus on self, to the exclusion of those who haven't come into your inheritance, this is the sin that will find you out. We can be sure that there will be a great personal cost to those who pursue self interest while there are others who still don't know the Lord. We are not called to live for ourselves. We are called to follow our Savior.

Change is inevitable, whether we face it or not we are constantly experiencing change. God wants us to know we can face change living for Him. In a world of change God is calling us to lean on Jesus so we can hear His heart when He begins to speak to us. It is time to stand up with authentic Christianity. We must take up a God given responsibility and stay spiritually connected to Jesus and the Body of Christ.

God wants to take from you the spirit of heaviness and give you the garment of praise. This is the ministry of Jesus Christ. Praise is important and vital because it places God in the right perspective. Heaviness comes when we put our problems in the place of God. God deserves all of our praise! On a good day or bad day He still deserves the praise. He earned it and died for it. Praise lifts us up into the supernatural and gives us the victory over all the powers of darkness.

Redemption is not something to make us feel good. We are called to walk with Christ and share in His compassion for the lost. People cannot embrace the fullness of the Cross because they are not attracted to the selfless life it leads us into. The evidence that we embraced the Cross will be a life fully surrendered to the agenda of Jesus for humanity. We are called to take up our cross and allow our lives to be poured out for others.
