FROM THE PROPHETS CHAMBER
BELIEVERS MINISTRY – PART THIRTEEN
THE UPSIDE-DOWN CHURCH
Greetings dear and precious saints of God and welcome back to “From the Prophets Chamber”. This is the thirteenth week I am teaching on the Believers Ministry, The Upside-Down Church. As you will recall from prior teachings, we, the Church, have been given of God absolute authority in the earth and the Power to back up the authority. We are the Church, the Ekklesia, which in the Greek government was a body with authority to carry out the will of a higher body. Sound familiar? The Five-Fold Ministers and others have a vital role in the Kingdom of God, however, Gods’ original intent at creation and restored by Calvary and the Resurrection gives equal authority (Kingdom citizen) and Power (baptized in the Holy Spirit) to all believers. We choose how much of it we walk in. Where did you last hear that? The superstar system that was needed for a season following sin until Christ is not Bible, not Bible for our time. We are citizens, sons, in the Kingdom of God, joint-heirs (participant in common) in Christ Jesus so let us not be slack in our assignments.
2 Corinthians 6:1 (PassionNTPsa)
1 Now, since we are God’s coworkers, we beg you not to take God’s marvelous grace for granted, allowing it to have no effect on your lives.
We are working with God, God is working with us, as we carry out our obligations in our Kingdom authority backed by His Power.
Mark 16:20 (KJV)
20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
This does not mean they were Five-Fold Ministry people, but they are included, it means believers (verse 17) spoke the Word of God, the will of God everywhere there went. What about us? Before moving forward please take a moment and share this teaching as widely as possible expanding the reach of this Ministry beyond its current bounds. Let me remind you to read out loud? You know why? Now, let’s plunge once again into our primary Bible (Scriptural) text.
John 14:12 (KJV)
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
In the last few weeks, I have talked about Mark 11:22-24 teaching us to speak (we speak in our authority) to our mountains and the mountains of others in our jurisdiction. We have reviewed how Jesus spoke to the storm, and to Lazarus. He did not speak to the Father nor beg the Father, He spoke to the storm, and to Lazarus, just as Mark 11:23-24 instructs us.
Mark 4:39 (KJV)
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
John 11:43 (KJV)
43 And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
Now let’s look at the account of the man with a withered hand.
Matthew 12:9-13 (KJV)
9 And when he was departed thence, he went into their synagogue:
10 And, behold, there was a man which had his hand withered. And they asked him, saying, Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath days? that they might accuse him.
11 And he said unto them, What man shall there be among you, that shall have one sheep, and if it fall into a pit on the sabbath day, will he not lay hold on it, and lift it out?
12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? Wherefore it is lawful to do well on the sabbath days.
13 Then saith he to the man, Stretch forth thine hand. And he stretched it forth; and it was restored whole, like as the other.
Once again, no praying to God the Father, no begging, no gang prayer (whole gang praying) but He spoke to the man to “Stretch forth thine hand” and the hand was restored. I don’t want to hear “but that was Jesus”. Jesus operated in the earth as a man, period, on that Truth the Bible is very clear. Go back and read John 14:12 and all the other references we have covered over and over again telling us to operate just as He the man did in the earth.
By: Dr. David R. Wood, Author, Bible Teacher, and Prophetic Voice, Lord willing I will pick up right here next week.
2 Chronicles 20:20 b (KJV)
20 … Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.
Receive the blessing in Jesus’ name!
Numbers 6:24-26 (MSG)
24 GOD bless you and keep you,
25 GOD smile on you and gift you,
26 GOD look you full in the face and make you prosper.
PRAYERS AND QUESTIONS – please contact us and we will respond. Our goal is to build a solid foundation upon which children of God can become sons of God, stand and do exploits in Jesus’ name.
PARTNERSHIP AND GIVING – Those of you who are not Partners of this Ministry and you find this ministry to be of value to you and perhaps others with whom you share it, we ask you to consider becoming Partners. A Partner is one who prays for the Ministry on a regular basis and contributes to the Ministry on a regular basis (monthly, quarterly, annually). Thank you and may the Lord be pleased with your decision.
