Notes on Vision - 20/20 “year of Opportunity”

What do you see that is broken in Lake County around you? How do you think God see’s these areas?

What is God’s answer...?

Am I a disciple worth multiplying?

How did I grow in Christlikeness this week?

How did I obey Christ this week?

(NKJV)

Then the LORD answered me and said: “Write the vision And make [it] plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it.

The Answer: (NET)

God wanted to make known to them the glorious riches of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Christ IN YOU has to be released to be Christ working around you...

(NASB) 19 Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh,

(NASB)

You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.

(NASB)

the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.

Poem - Ezra Taft Benson

The Lord works from the inside out.

The world works from the outside in.

The world would take people out of the slums.

Christ would take the slums out of people, and then they would take themselves out of the slums.

The world would mold men by changing their environment.

Christ changes men, who then change their environment.

The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.

Unified: Vision

(NET)

The group of those who believed were of one heart and mind, and no one said that any of his possessions was his own, but everything was held in common.

NKJV

18 When there is no prophetic vision the people cast off restraint, but the one who keeps the law, blessed is he!

NIV

18 Where there is no revelation, people cast off restraint; but blessed is the one who heeds wisdom’s instruction.

The Message

18 If people can’t see what God is doing, they stumble all over themselves; But when they attend to what he reveals, they are most blessed.

CJB

18 Without a prophetic vision, the people throw off all restraint; buthe who keeps Torah is happy.

Start: Thank You for journeying with me and my family these last couple years and 2019 in particular.

Prophetic fulfillment’s took place that were 13 to 18 years in the making in - 1st event held on Worship Central “Awaken the Dawn” and me going full-time into the Work of Service to you all as of August this year (4 months) of the most rewarding work I have ever done.

I feel a growing conviction that we have just began to see the beginning of many Prophetic Words fulfilled that have been spoken over us individually, collectively as a house, as the Body of Christ in Lake County...Et cetera.

Layout: Other aspects of the Vision God has revealed to us universally from Scripture as Commands to the Church at large, but also specifically the framework we will begin to balance and measure ourselves against as a ministry specifically to guide our steps in engaging God’s Vision specifically here at JCF over 2020 and beyond.

Personally, as your Pastor and Sr. Leader I wanted to share a few Prophetic Words that involve all of us now, as a house, and being a Father of this Spiritual Family that belong to you as heirs of the same promise...the purpose for doing so is not to build up myself in the eyes of the public, but to give you all the confidence that we are moving into a Prophetically appointed Season - 2020 is a Year of Opportunity and I want us as a Fellowship to partake and contribute, receive and give, with an understanding that we are about to engage in a new level of Authority and Influence that has yet to be seen in my life or this Ministry to date.

Again, it’s because of God’s Glory and His Namesake that these things are taking place, but because He is rich in mercy He partners with us to see the dominion of God released through mankind into the Earth so His Nations can be recovered from demonic powers holding them captive.

Op - Optics, Vision.

Port - Exchange, Old & New...Heaven invading Earth.

Greater ability to live from above.

Unity - One Accord.

Text: God’s Vision - Worldwide.

The whole earth would be filled with the knowledge of His glory.

Nations would stream to Mt. Zion.

Jesus Co-missioned us “make disciples of the Nations...” and to “teach them to obey His commands,” to love Him. .

How do I see us as Jesus Christ Fellowship engaging with God’s Vision -

1. Globally and Locally - Both.

2. Balanced approach to move us forward in 4 ways: Upward, in Worship.

Inward, Fellowship.

Outward in Discipleship, Forward in stewardship.

The Universal Will of God for the Church:

Love God

Love One Another

Seek and Save the Lost & Make Discipkes

Steward what God has entrusted to us - People and Property.

We must structure ourselves in the way God is calling each of us to exercise our God-given talents and treasure to see the Body of Christ built up in love.

: - The leaders of the Church must equip the saints for the work of the ministry.

Loving God, prayer, worship, study of scriptures.

Loving the Saints - engaging the One Another commands.

Loving the Lost - engaging in outreach to build friendships, points of prayer, and power encounters.

Extending ourselves outward towards our community of the lost, last, and least.

In both practical and supernatural ways.

Discussing how to host the shower trailer, work programs for the homeless and unskilled, warming center (next winter).

Stewarding the People, Property, and Resources God has entrusted to our care.

Hosting a monthly 24-hr burn through 2020.

Developing the Land for more prayer trails and housing options - tents, cabins, tiny houses, transitional housing.

Vision - Critical for Cadence.

Where are we going in 2020?

How do we see ourselves answering God’s Mission?

Paul told Timothy to use the Prophetic Words he had received to:

(NASB) 19 Do not quench the Spirit; 20 do not despise prophetic utterances.

21 But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good;

(NASB)

Do not neglect the spiritual gift within you, which was bestowed on you through prophetic utterance with the laying on of hands by the presbytery.

(NASB)

So we have the prophetic word made more sure, to which you do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star arises in your hearts.

Paul’s Example:

(NASB)

“So, King Agrippa, I did not prove disobedient to the heavenly vision,

(NASB)

“For David, after he had served the purpose of God in his own generation, fell asleep, and was laid among his fathers and underwent decay;

Prophetic Promises: My life...

1) Called to Unite the Tribes like David under one mission - His heart released over Lake County.

Coordinate with likeminded leaders who can drop church agendas for Kingdom initiatives.

Bring young and old, old and new wine together to repair the breaches in the wall and raise up age old foundations.

Like Captain America - the glue that brings the powerful people together, team, like the Avengers.

Do Marvelous things!

Partner with professionals who are skilled and gifted by God to bring answers to our community.

Shield people well.

Neo from the Matrix, see the code of Heaven to bring about creative entrepreneurial kingdom endeavors together.

2) The Greatest Revival the World has ever seen - the 3rd great awakening, usher in the Return of Christ.

3) See the miraculous power of God released in signs and wonders like in the days of old...dead raised, limbs growing out..chains broken off people.

4) Write a new chapter of History over Lake a county - rise above the “fog line” (demonic oppression of poverty, sickness, addiction, abuse, orphan spirit, homelessness, joblessness, occult and new age spirits, premature mortality, hopeless for the youth...) replaced with Gods heart for these situations.

How do we do this?

Obedience.

We have to discover the gift of God in us...the call of God on us, and birth the promise He has placed in us through obedience to His promptings...we have to diligently seek His will and ways to be led out of the bondage of captivity (personally) so we can be prepared to lead others out (publicly).
