Leaders Among You. The Thief

Leaders Among You

In a time coming, there will be great destruction in many lands. The leaders, too, shall be destroyed. 

In that time, I will raise up leaders among you who hear My voice and share My heart for you.

When this time comes, look for those I have chosen, for they shall lead you according to My will. I shall direct them to safe places, to provision for you. You shall see My mighty power working through them.

I am always with you, My children.

Matthew 28:20  Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Titus 1:7-14

7 For a bishop must be blameless, as the steward of God; not selfwilled, not soon angry, not given to wine, no striker, not given to filthy lucre;

8 But a lover of hospitality, a lover of good men, sober, just, holy, temperate;

9 Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.

10 For there are many unruly and vain talkers and deceivers, specially they of the circumcision:

11 Whose mouths must be stopped, who subvert whole houses, teaching things which they ought not, for filthy lucre's sake.

12 One of themselves, even a prophet of their own, said, the Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.

13 This witness is true. Wherefore rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith;

14 Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth.

Mark 10:42-45

42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.

43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:

44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.

45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

1 Timothy 3:2  A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

Proverbs 16:9  A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps.

The Thief

Until now, many of My children have been in “acceptance” mode. They have willingly accepted whatever has come to them in life.

I desire you would be in “taking back” mode – that you would fight and take back what you know I desire you have.

Children, many times you have not because you ask not, or you ask amiss, but oftentimes you have not because you have allowed the enemy to steal from you. It is not My desire that the enemy take from My children.

I have given you dominion over all the earth – take back what is rightfully yours!  If a thief is caught robbing you, do you watch him walk away with what is yours? No, you reclaim it. So do likewise with the enemy of your souls. Do not let him deceive you that he is entitled to what is yours, for he is not.

Take what is yours back from the enemy – that your joy may be full.

James 4:2-3

2 Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain: ye fight and war, yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.

Genesis 1:28  And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Luke 10:19  Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Psalm 8:6  Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:

John 10:10  The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
