P.S.S. Spiritual Journaling will transform your life!

UNCOMMON Journaling is the key
to unlock YOUR dreams!

The Great Commission is a TEACHING as well as PREACHING commission!

Mt 28:19-20 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (NAS) Teach them all I commanded you.

Did you know that Jesus gave us 50 commandments to take to the nations?

The 50 commandments of Christ will change a nation. Notice how Jesus commands us to both preach repentance and TEACH THEM TO “OBSERVE ALL THINGS THAT I COMMANDED YOU”. We tend to focus on getting people saved, or born again. That is certainly the start. This however is called the “Gospel of Salvation.”

The “Gospel of the Kingdom” on the other hand is the Gospel we are called to preach. It includes the call to repentance but goes much further. It 7 Mountains of Culture reaches into the world system and threatens Satan’s control over the nations. It is a teaching commission along side a preaching commission. It has been neglected too long.

To disciple a nation you need a philosophy that governs all aspects of behavior yet is flexible enough to apply to all sectors of society. What are the sectors of society the gospel must penetrate in order to disciple nations?

There are in fact seven mountains or world kingdoms that make up the matrix in which the culture of every nation exists. These mountains are also called “mind molders”, because the person who controls the tops of these mountains has leverage over the minds and lives of those beneath in every other mountain. The church has a message for each of these mountains. We need to both demonstrate the power of God and recover our confidence in the practical, life changing dynamic that is unleashed when society is built on non optional universal life principles- the commandments of Christ! It is the absence of this moral foundation that explains why it is easier to liberate a country from dictatorship than it is to bring it into order and prosperity once the dictator is out of power.

 
“Prayer opens the way for the Word of God to run without hindrance. It creates the atmosphere that is favorable for the Word to accomplish its purpose.” – E.M. Bounds

I am writing this email to you while in Maui Hawaii on a two week vacation with my wife Julia. Yes, I’m actually taking time off from other things I could be doing on this gorgeous island to encourage and inspire you.

For years, going to Hawaii was a pipe dream for me – something I would do some day. Finally, it became a reality. And journaling played a key role in that. I came here to support Julia, who qualified for the Xterra World Triathlon Championship that took place on Oct 25. And believe it or not, it was actually a big step of faith for me to drop most everything I was doing to come here for two weeks of R&R.

On October 12, I wrote a devotional titled “The LORD is doing a marvelous work in me to SIMPLIFY my life.” SIMPLIFY is my keyword for life. In that I wrote, “While journaling early in the morning on Sept 22, the day after my arrival in Utah for our vacation, the LORD told me to free up my Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays to give me a 4 day weekend every week to allow me much more time for rest, reflection, revelation, prayer, and meditation on the Word of God. My goal is to be STRATEGIC and create MARGIN to bear much fruit for the Kingdom.”

So what? What does this have to do with YOU and Pray Culpeper?

Lots! God is raising the bar for His children to pray and intercede much more – that includes YOU as well as me. God sent me to Utah in late September to rest, reflect, and receive His revelation to free up three days each work week to ABIDE and PRAY.

Let me ask you, “What is more important in your WEEKLY ROUTINE than coming together with other believers to pray for the transformation of your community?” Do you know praying together is what initiated Pentecost and began the great revival in the book of Acts?

There is nothing – let me repeat nothing – that brings UNITY like praying together with other believers in the name of Jesus. It’s one of the fastest and most POWERFUL ways to enter what I call “the Holy Spirit zone,” where the Holy Spirit reveals God’s plans and puts feet to your prayers. It’s where miracles take place.

Prayer is the key to unlocking God’s prevailing power in your life, in your business or ministry, in your community!

So here’s the deal. I’m asking you to make the commitment through December 31, 2009 to come together with other believers in your community to pray at least once a week for the transformation of your community.

Here are 3 simple ways for YOU to GET INVOLVED and stay connected:

1) Subscribe to our World-Wide Prayer Community at www.PrayCulpeper.org

2) Refer 3 friends each week to visit www.PrayCulpeper.org

3) If you live in or near Culpeper, join us for the “HOUR OF POWER” prayer time on Wednesdays at Noon at Reformation Lutheran Church (415 S. Main Street, Culpeper, VA 22701). If you can’t come to pray on Wednesdays at noon, other community prayer opportunities include:

a) 7 pm on Mondays at Church on the Rise (1136 Sperryville Pike, Culpeper, VA 22701) led by Pastor Baker Rigg

b) 7 pm on Fridays at Praise The LORD bookstore on Main Street, Culpeper, VA

If you live in another community, state, or nation, make the commitment to start coming together with at least 1-2 other believers to pray for the transformation of your community at least weekly starting this week or next. It’s time to stop making excuses for things we put ahead of prayer.

Blessings to successfully jump the higher bar of prayer!

“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.” (John 4:23)

What is flowing in the Spirit?

This morning I was woken up suddenly knowing the LORD wanted to use me as His scribe to share several messages with the world. I heard Him say clearly, “Let the Spirit flow.” I started singing a song with those lyrics, not certain where it was coming from. After praying on my knees a few minutes and taking communion, I began journaling.

Very quickly, I was led to do a Google search using “Let the Spirit flow.” That led me to visit the #1 entry – “Let the Spirit Flow Concert Tours.”

I also came across a good article titled “Flowing in the Spirit.” You can read that below. [http://www.worshipworld.com/lite/flowing.htm]

From there I was led to go to Youtube and do a search using “Let the Spirit Flow,” which led me to this video:

This in turn led me to do another search using “Let the river flow” which led me to this video

Enjoy. Soak it in. Let the Spirit flow. Let the river flow.

Prayer Power
Most gracious and merciful heavenly Father, I thank You for the river of God that flows through me into other people’s lives. May those who read this message let your Spirit flow to be washed anew by You. May Your cleansing waters bring them life, hope, and happiness. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.

Blessings to let the Spirit flow!

Flowing in the Spirit
Although I believe I still don’t know enough about this to write a comprehensive article, I will gladly offer what I do know on a preliminary basis, and keep improving this article as I gain more experience. I thank Rev. James Cheong for valuable advice in the preparation of this article.
You might want to read about an experience of “flowing in the spirit” that I had before.

———————————-

What is flowing in the Spirit?
Generally defined, it means recognizing that God wants to use the worship to minister to the worshippers and being sensitive to the guidance of the Spirit to facilitate that. The broad definition implies that a worship leader, music team or congregation can be “flowing in the Spirit” throughout the entire worship – in fact, throughout the entire service. A narrower definition postulates that there is a specific time during the worship which the presence of the Spirit is especially strong and that is when God chooses to minister to his Body. Both are correct, though for the rest of this article I will use the narrower definition.

When does it occur?
It can occur anytime, though usually it may occur during the “intimate worship” (inner courts) portion of a worship. That’s the part of the worship when the worshippers are most sensitive to God. And it can occur in both small group or large group worship.

Can it be planned?
Yes and no. On one hand God cannot be made to do a “guest appearance” as one pleases. Planning the whole worship second by second will not be conducive to flowing in the Spirit. On the other hand, if during the planning for the worship, the leader remains sensitive to God’s will, it’s conceivable that he may have been guided to lead a worship conducive to flowing in the Spirit.

How important is the leader for “flowing in the spirit”?
Quite important. He is God’s chosen instrument to help lead the worshippers into God’s presence. God uses the worship leader to guide the worship during the flowing of the spirit. Whether in deciding to sing a chorus another time, to pause for prayer or ministry, to break into spontaneous song, to speak ministering words, or to have a silent moment of enjoying God’s presence, the worship leader plays the key role in discerning the timing.

Does one have to be an experienced worship leader?
No. God can use anyone; I speak from experience as a young worship leader. The only fallacy young worship leaders tend to believe is that they can “plan” for flowing in the Spirit to occur. It cannot be planned.

Does one need to have a mature congregation for flowing in the spirit to occur?
No; again, I speak from experience. No denomination is excluded per se either. But you do need worshippers who are sincere and who are expecting to meet God in the worship.

What is the good of flowing in the Spirit?
It is not a cool worship technique. It is a practical example of recognizing the Lordship of Christ in all of our worship and church activities. It is the discipline and stewardship of giving time to the Spirit to use it as He wants it to be used in the worship. It always gives adequate time for us as worshippers to feel the Father’s love and respond to it, worshipping “in spirit and in truth”.

How do I know if or when I should allow “flowing in the spirit”?
As a leader, you should be sensitive to God’s guidance throughout the worship. If you suddenly feel that something in your spirit is prompting you to say something or sing something or do something particular, and you get this sense that you know it is from God, then that is the exact time.

How do I know whether what I feel prompted to do is really from God?
The more mature you are as a child of God, the more sensitive you will be to God’s will. Generally anything that contradicts Biblical principles is not from God. As you practise doing God’s will, you will know more and more what is really from God and what is not.

What should I do when I feel prompted to let the Spirit flow?
Your human intellect may have a tendency to say all kinds of things and start waxing philosophical. Don’t. Say only what you feel is from your spirit and what is absolutely necessary. “Get out of the way” – it’s usually the time for the whole congregation to express their feelings freely. Continue as long as you feel God is directing you; end when you feel directed to end.

Does flowing in the Spirit imply a suspension of the intellect?
No. We worship God both in Spirit and in Truth. Truth means that we have to know and be directed by the word of God in our worship. Therefore it is Biblically incorrect to worship God without the use of our mental faculty. Suspension of the intellect often implies extremist views emphasizing the ecstatic and mystical nature of worship eg. trances, hysteria, rolling on the ground while shouting and screaming, etc. Flowing in the Spirit should involve both our spirit and intellect (the total inner man) responding to God’s guidance and leading in the worship.

Anything I should avoid, so that flowing in the Spirit will not be hindered?
As I mentioned above; talking too much out of our human intellect; planning a rigid worship schedule; expecting God to flow at such and such a time, singing such and such a song. Don’t think that chucking some “power songs” into your worship will make the Spirit flow either. There is one more thing, which, having heard of but never experienced, I find hard to explain. I will state it as “drifting into heaven and leaving your worshippers behind on earth”.

Randy, yes, that was Me who just spoke to you. I want You to do a teleseminar interview of John Paul Jackson. I want you to start doing weekly teleseminars or BlogTalkRadio shows with Christian celebrities. That will create tremendous attraction marketing. These leaders will be interested in what you do. I also want you to start weekly teleseminars with Pastor Baker Rigg. He wants to move forward with Web 2.0 technology. I want you to start going to his weekly worship and prayer gatherings on Monday evenings. I AM raising you up to raise up a new standard of prayer in your community.

Randy, it is Me who is making you smile. I AM smiling down upon you. My favor is upon you. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM the God of your salvation.

Randy, right now, I want you to paste your notes from the Utah trip into your journal. Enjoy. Be blessed. Receive what I AM giving you. I AM your protector. My favor will protect you from your enemies. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM smiling down on you. With you I AM well pleased.

Randy, what you have done with the 6 new people in the Prosper Now 777 course is huge. You and your team have helped them load their own space shuttles on the launching pads and now their rockets are firing to launch them forward into their destinies. That makes Me smile. I have blessed you to be a catalyst to release My UNCOMMON favor into My children’s lives. Rejoice and be exceedingly glad. I AM smiling upon you.

Wow Jesus. What great encouragement. Thank You. I love You so much. You are the reason I breathe, move, and have my being. You are my morning joy. You are the delight of my days.

I AM your God of promise. I AM returning. I AM He who places your tears in My bottle in My book. I AM God who shows you things to come. I AM the seven spirits and they are Me. Me secrets are with those who fear me.

Randy, it was Me who led you to listen to the I AM – 365 Names of God this morning. I wanted to remind you who I AM and who you are in Me. Victory is here.

Randy, I want you to follow up with the Chamber prospects today. I want you to go to the Culpeper lead share meeting this morning as Chris’ guest. Taste and see that I AM good. I AM the LORD; he who is joined with me is one spirit with Me. I AM the spirit of counsel. I AM your provider. I AM tenderness. I AM the true shepherd. I AM the dispeller of all fear and doubt. I AM interceding for you right now. I AM love.

Hi Baker,

Thanks for letting me know why you missed yesterday’s Pray Culpeper session. It was powerful. We missed you.

After yesterday’s prayer time, Pastor Brad Hales talked about the need for our local pastors to put this weekly gathering for prayer ahead of all other programs and ministries. Brad says this time of prayer is very uplifting for pastors. He says our community will be transformed when our pastors commit to coming together weekly to pray. He says praying together in the name of Jesus brings unity.

I am NOT available to attend the Pray Culpeper session on Sept 23 in person because I’ll be in Utah next week supporting my wife Julia as she prepares to compete in the Xterra National Triathlon Championships. However, I plan to be on my knees praying in Utah while the Pray Culpeper session is taking place on Wed Sept 23 at Noon. As I write this I am overcome with the presence of God.

Pastor Brad Hales, Pastor Howie Holmes (Providence Bible Church), Dewey McDonnell, and Jim Charapich (President, Culpeper Chamber of Commerce), all said yesterday after the Pray Culpeper session that they definitely want the weekly prayer time to continue every Noon on Wednesdays at Reformation Lutheran Church no matter what.

Our community prayer team looks forward to your participation at Pray Culpeper on Sept 23 at the Reformation Lutheran Church, 415 S Main Suite # 101, Culpeper, VA 22701.

Incidentally, Wednesday Sept 23 is a HUGE day spiritually. It marks the birth of the greatest prayer revival in the history of America. On Wednesday September 23, 1857, Jeremiah Lamphier held his first prayer meeting in a Reformation Church in New York City that launched the Fulton Street Revival. See http://yourdailyblessing.com/prayer-revival-in-america/

I encourage you to invite other pastors and people who have a heart for prayer and worship to join as well.

I’m sending a copy of this email to members of the Culpeper Ministerial Association so they can come and invite others with a heart for prayer and worship as well. I’ll posting it at the Pray Culpeper (www.prayculpeper.com) and Transformation Virginia (www.transformationvirginia.com) blogs to help get the word out. I’ll sending a seperate email to my emails lists for Your Daily Blessing, Pray Culpeper, and Transformation Virginia as well. God is going to get His word out for people around the world to pray as communities on Sept 23.

To God be the glory, now and forever.

Blessings for an extraordinary finish to an extraordinary year!

How a local Baptist preacher changed the course of U.S. history
J. Michael Sharman – Editorial Columnist
Published: September 15, 2009

Source: Culpeper Star Exponent

On Sept. 15, 1787, George Mason and James Madison were delegates from Virginia to the Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, which was presided over by their fellow Virginian, George Washington.

That morning, Mason argued that the proposed Constitution had a “dangerous power and structure of the government” which “would end either in monarchy or tyrannical aristocracy.”

A few days earlier, on Sept. 12, Mason, author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, had asked for a vote on whether to include a bill of rights, guaranteeing individual freedoms, into the Constitution.

There were many things about the Constitution that Mason did not like, but if it could be “prefaced with a Bill of Rights,” he said, it would “give great quiet to the people” and he could support it. But not even a single state delegation supported the concept of a federal bill of rights.

Mason’s argument did not win out, and late on the afternoon of Sept. 15, the Constitutional Convention voted, according to Madison’s succinct journal entry “on the question to agree to the Constitution, as amended. All the States Ay.”

A decade earlier, in 1776, John Leland began pastoring at his first church, the Mount Poney Church in Culpeper, a ministry that Leland said “was not a blessing to the people. … I was too young and too roving to be looked up to as a pastor. Difficulties arose, the church split, and I just obtained a dismission and recommendation. God had another man for Mount Poney church. William Mason became their pastor, and he has done wonders in the name of Jesus.”

The Lelands moved from Culpeper to Orange County, which was their ministry base for the next 13 years. There Leland became “probably the most popular [preacher] of any who ever resided in this State.”

From the fall of 1787 to 1789, a revival was spreading throughout James Madison’s congressional district, and Pastor Leland preached at revival meetings all over Orange, Culpeper, Spotsylvania and Louisa counties.

Meanwhile, the states were holding ratification conventions to decide on whether to accept the Constitution.

In the spring of 1788, James Madison was a candidate to be Orange County’s delegate to the Virginia Ratification Convention. His chances for success did not look good.

He was running as a Federalist (pro-Constitution) candidate in a strongly anti-Federalist county. George Mason, Richard Henry Lee and Patrick Henry did not want Virginia to ratify the Constitution.

Madison’s father and others wrote to him that the region’s Baptists, led by Leland, were also opposed to the Constitution. Leland’s two main concerns were that it lacked a Bill of Rights and “Religious Liberty is not sufficiently secured.”

On the day before the election, Madison spent a half-day with Leland, escorting him to speak to Baptist gatherings, with the result that Leland and the Baptists switched their position, supported Madison and Madison was elected with 80 percent of the vote.

The Virginia convention ratified the Constitution on a vote of 89-79. If Virginia had failed to ratify, George Washington, James Madison, Thomas Jefferson and all other Virginians would have been ineligible for office in the first national government.

Years later, on Jan. 3, 1802, two days after writing his famous “wall of separation” letter to the Danbury Baptists, President Thomas Jefferson invited Pastor Leland to preach before both Houses of Congress. In a wonderful demonstration of pastoral courage and political irony, Leland preached to Congress about Jesus Christ’s proclamation of His total wisdom, His constant presence, and His permanent sovereign authority.

Sharman’s column appears Tuesdays on the editorial page.

 
Breakthrough begins with thanksgiving, praise, and prayer!

Then King David went in and sat before the LORD; and he said: “Who am I, O Lord GOD? And what is my house, that You have brought me this far? (2 Samuel 7:18)

What is the significance of the number 12 in Biblical numerology?
What is the significance of today’s message for you to breakthrough?

In Biblical numerology, the number “12″ represents the apostolic. According to the Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry (CARM), 12 is “THE NUMBER OF GOVERNMENTAL PERFECTION. There were 12 tribes of Israel; 12 Apostles, 12 foundations in the heavenly Jerusalem; 12 gates; 12 pearls; 12 angels. The measurements of New Jerusalem are 12,000 furlongs or stadia, while the wall will be 144 (12 x 12) cubits.”

Let me share a recent extraordinary story about the number 12 and the Angel Breakthrough.

On Saturday June 6, 2009, I hosted my very first live Web Marketing Intensive Training seminar at the Holiday Inn Express in Culpeper, Virginia. What happened there was extraordinary. Afterwards, Julia (my wife) and I went for a 24 mile (= 12 x 2) bike ride. During that ride, the LORD told me to ask Bob Sims to sow a $14,400 (= 12 x $1,200) financial seed to provide the funding to allow all of our MTC (Marching Through Culpeper) prayer team members to participate in our first 12-week quick start Web 2.0 program.

During my morning quiet time on June 8, 2009, I spent four hours writing a long two-way prayer and then composing a lengthy email to Bob Sims asking him to sow an UNCOMMON financial seed ($14,400) by June 12 to help our prayer team breakthrough with the Marching Through Culpeper movie project. It turned out my email to Bob had about twelve “12′s” in it.

Meanwhile, while I was composing that email to Bob, he was sending his own email with an audio file titled “Breakthrough.” That was the first time Bob has ever emailed me an audio file and neither of us knew what the other was doing. Neither of us knew what the other was doing.

The audio file “breakthrough” happened to be 12 minutes long. Bob Jones, the speaker on the audio file started,

“A week ago Friday I was in Nashville and I went and laid down at 3 o-clock. And I no sooner laid down and I was in what I call a trance. And I was waiting on a road and 12 men were coming toward me and I could see that they were angels. But one was in front of the others. And the one that was in front came up to me and said ‘My name is Breakthrough.’”

Here are some things the “BREAKTHROUGH” angel said that jumped out at me:
1) “I’m going to move among the common people” (bloggers)
2) “If you do what I tell you, we are going to bring many into the Kingdom”
3) “I use tools!” (Web 2.0)
4) “His angels are like winds. I believe he said Move, Move, Move. It is 3 cities that are ready.”
5) “It’s America’s time for breatkthrough. Study about breakthrough in scripture. Most of the breakthroughs come through praise.”
6) “It’s now.” .. It’s time the Body of Christ quits being observers and becomes participaters.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, thank You for Bob Sim’s extraordinary faith and obedience. Thank You for the audio file he sent me about the Angel Breakthrough. Thank You for his $14,400 seed sown on June 12 that You will multiply 100 fold. May those who visit this web page sit before You to reflect upon today’s message. Bless them with ears to hear and eyes to see what You are revealing to them to do to break through in their own lives. Thank You Jesus. In Your name I pray. Amen and hallelujah!

Blessing to go in and sit before the LORD as King David did!

Prayer Power (Mon, June 8, 2009)

Randy, I want you to start your morning by listening to I AM – 365 Names of God to remind you not just who I AM, but who you are in Me. I want your faith to increase. I have brought you to this point so that you have to ask for help from people who I want to partner with you. Nana will want to sow into your life and Julia’s life. It’s Ok to ask her. She sees Me through you. She wants you to be richly blessed. She believes in what you are doing. Likewise, Bob will want to sow into what you are doing. He understands Me. He knows I AM a supernatural God and that My ways are so much higher than the world’s ways and that My thoughts are so much higher than the world’s thoughts. Bob can see God working through you. As a visionary for visionaries and a forerunner of forerunners, Bob understands how I ask my Jedi Knights to do unusual and extraordinary things. Bob will want to partner with you financially. He understands Kingdom economics, which always trump world economics. My yield is 30-60-100 fold, not 5-10%. Randy, write down Proverbs 3:3-10 that Tim Smith read yesterday while on stage at SPC. That was for you.

Let not mercy and truth forsake you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart, And so find favor and high esteem In the sight of God and man. Trust in the LORD with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the LORD and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, And strength to your bones. Honor the LORD with your possessions, And with the firstfruits of all your increase; So your barns will be filled with plenty, And your vats will overflow with new wine. (Proverbs 3:3-10)

These verses will minister to Bob’s spirit. They will speak life into him. They will help him understand what I AM asking him to do. When Bob sows his financial seed, that will be the blowing of the shofar for the fourth time. When Nana sows her seed, that will be the blowing of the shofar for the fifth time. Saturday June 6 was the blowing of My shofar for the third time. The Web Marketing Intensive Training Seminar you led was profound. I completely redirected your paths. What you did is duplicatable and saleable. I AM creating a system for you, Randy, to help My children share their God stories, products, and services with the world. Bob’s seed will allow you to invite in all MTC prayer team members. Just teaching your tribe members how to use affiliate marketing alone will result in much, much recurring financial income. I AM both the giver and the gifts. Copy and paste the I AM track you are listening to right now.

I AM Track #10: “God the reward: I AM your exceedingly great reward. I AM the LORD; taste and see that I AM good. I AM both the giver and the gifts. I AM the preparer of your place in heaven. I AM able to give you much more than this. I AM the one source of all true wealth. I AM the Spirit of liberty. I AM He who anoints your head with oil. I AM the bridegroom returning for my bride. I AM the LORD who looks on those who tremble at My Word. I AM God who prepares a table for you in the presence of your enemies. I AM in the midst of two or three gathered in My name. I AM God who will answer you. I AM the glory who conceals a matter for a king to search out. I AM the fountain of gardens. I AM the resurrection of my beloved. I AM God whose throne is in heaven. I AM from above. I AM the LORD whose countenance beholds the upright. I AM the just rewarder of all who seek Me. I AM God who teaches you to profit. I AM the giver of abundant life. I AM more than you can ask or think. I AM sitting at the right hand of the Father. I AM the maker of many mansions therein. I AM the Sabbath rest. I AM the inheritance of the Levite. I AM the fountain of life. I AM the giver of great wisdom. I AM the Holy Spirit that hovers over your life.

Randy, I want you to send the I AM – 365 Names of God PDF file to Bob as an attachment when you send him your email from Me this morning. Also, I want you to post the audio file on the MTC blog as a private post. Bob’s seed will unlock financial wealth for the entire MTC prayer team through Web 2.0 coaching from you. Bob’s seed will also unlock large Kingdom networks through you and your networks. Bob understands Mt 6:21 “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also” and Heb 11:6 “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” Trust and obey! Trust and obey! Trust and obey! I AM who I AM. At my Word, all knees will bow.

Jesus, I am overwhelmed by your mercy, grace, power, and abundance. Thank You for your encouraging words and clear direction this morning. Thank You for the passion within me. As Tim said yesterday, please put up a roadblock whenever I start to stray off Your path of life. May people see Your glory and Your majesty through me. May I be completely transparent so that nothing hinders your full manifestation through me. Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done today, June 8, 2009. To You be all glory, honor, and praise. I love You with every fiber of my being. Thank You for being my friend in addition to my LORD, King, and Master. Thank You for being the Comforter of my soul. And that reminds me of how you sent me to Holy Comforter School for grades 1-3 in Charlottesville and how Mrs. Cox, my second grade teacher, helped me get on the right path academically. She was the teacher who first manifest the love of God to me in school. Thank You for Mrs. Cox. Bless her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Jesus, I am overwhelmed by Your presence.

Yes, Randy, I AM light. I AM peace. I AM love. I AM joy. When you’re in my presence you feel all those things. Your face is glowing right now just as Moses face glowed. You are ready to write My letter to Bob Sims. After doing that, add the I AM -365 Names of God audio file to the MTC blog. Then do these things in this order. Do not allow anything to distract you:

Subject: The $14,400 Miracle
To: Robert Sims

Dear Bob,

Jesus has given my a crystal clear instruction to ask you to sow a $14,400 seed to become a financial and covenant partner with Empower 2000 and JIREH Marketing (Jerry and Sharon Graham’s parent company). Your seed will form a triad of Kingdom-minded companies to storm the gates of hell.

Attached is my 2-way prayer with Jesus from this morning which will minister to your spirit and bring clarity. The LORD actually told me in my spirit to ask you to sow this UNCOMMON seed on Saturday June 6 while I was riding my bike 24 miles with Julia about seven hours after the Web Marketing Intensive Training Seminar was over. He told me again several times on Sunday June 7.

I have an urgent financial need that require both faith and mercy on the part of the sower. By Friday June 12 at the latest, I must have at least $3,000 more in my personal checking account to pay two automatic withdrawals, $1,733 to my home mortgage company and $3,000 to the IRS. Julia and I are desperate for a financial miracle. Julia has been such a trooper for the LORD through the extreme financial hardships we have experienced during the past year.

Some history is in order.

As you already know, I committed my life to Jesus on January 6, 2001 (Epiphany Sunday), 2000 years after Jesus was born. I knew the very moment I made that monumental decision that my life purpose was to be the greatest salesman in the world for the Word of God. This came on the heels of the Holy Spirit leading me to read “The Greatest Salesman in the World” book during 2000. I actually read each of the ten scrolls 3x per day for 30 days (90 times per month) over the course of 10 months (Feb-Nov 2000) to the point I had the entire book memorized. I have never done anything like that before or since.

Knowing my life purpose has been what has kept me going through all the trials and tribulations associated with such a great assignment. It’s what has led me to give all I have to those in need as the Holy Spirit has directed me. It’s been what has kept me from going back to do anesthesia to provide for my family.

In April 2001, I got connected to the Fellowship of Christian Athletes after being invited to their annual banquet in Fredericksburg, VA. That led me to volunteer to help me the local FCA huddle in Culpeper. It turned out the very first FCA huddle (student group meeting) I ever went to in my life took place on the morning of Sept 12, 2001, the day after 9-11. My daughter showed up out-of-the-blue. Less than two weeks later she committed her life to Christ and was transformed miraculously from a selfish teenager to a beautiful young lady.

The FCA has had a greater impact on me than any other ministry in my life! See

To understand the spiritual significance of the $14,400 amount, you must read my YDB devotional from March 8, 2007 titled “The Doug Barclay Miracle.”
http://yourdailyblessing.com/the-doug-barclay-miracle/ (2007-03-08)

On January 1, 2007, the first day of my sabbatical year and my 21 day fast, the Holy Spirit told me to ask 12 people to sow a $14,400 seed into Empower 2000 to keep me from having to tap my IRA. When I asked my parents, they agreed to do that, albeit reluctantly. When I asked Michael Stay, he turned down the opportunity. When I asked Patti May, no seed was sown. Those “no’s” took the wind out of my sails to ask others.

Incidentally, I first got connected to Patti on Jan 1, 2007 when I serendipitously called together a group of Pray Culpeper members to meet in a downtown Culpeper building adjacent to the post office to dedicate a suite to be a prayer sanctuary for our community. Patti connected me with Bob Griffin, an extraordinary Messianic Jewish prophet, who then came to Culpeper for the very first time on January 15, 2007. See http://yourdailyblessing.com/bob-griffin-is-coming-to-culpeper-on-jan-15/

Now I realize the timing to ask for the other $14,400 seeds wasn’t right. Those people weren’t ready and neither was I. But now God is inviting 11 more people to sow a $14,400 seed into Empower 2000 to become “web apostles” to empower people, businesses, and communities around the world through the combination of journaling (to hear God’s voice), coaching (for support, encouragement, and accountability), and Web 2.0 (relationship marketing).

I had never seen or heard the word “Web apostle” until Deborah Smith, one of my three RCN (Relational Coaching Network) coaching partners, referred to me as that in her email following the Web Marketing Intensive Training Seminar two days ago (Saturday June 6). My recent correspondence with Deborah is attached.

Please listen to Deborah’s and Virginia’s audio testimonies at http://www.prosper777.com/

What happened at the Web Marketing Intensive Training seminar on June 6 was extraordinary. I was very pleased with the overall excitement, interaction, and responses of the 10-11 participants, all who were born-again believers. Virginia Morton was there. All of us gleaned something of significance that will change how we market in the future. I obtained great video testimonies from almost all the participants afterwards. It turned out the Holy Spirit led me to create my own curriculum and PowerPoints for the seminar rather than using ones I had purchased in the “$10k in a weekend” package. After the seminar was over, Michael Stay told me that what I prepared was much better than what I had purchased. He told me that small businesses are hungry for what I have to offer. This is HUGE.

The LORD led me to offer the seminar participants this:

UNCOMMON Opportunity ($1,440 package, limited to 15 people)
12-week quick start program = 90 days of UNCOMMON Internet Marketing (IM) Coaching
a) 7 one-hour group coaching calls ($1,400 value) [= $200/hour x 7]
b) 12 weeks of IM coaching via daily emails ($1,680) [=$20/email x 84 emails]
c) Access to private Member site with online resources x 1 year ($1,200 value)
d) Professional Blog ($500)
e) One private 60 minute session with a Web 2.0 coach ($300 value)
f) One mutually agreeable Joint Venture opportunity (> $10,000 value)

While riding my bike with Julia 24 miles after the seminar, the Holy Spirit told me that your $14,400 financial seed will provide the funding to allow all of our MTC prayer team members to participate in this 12-week quick start program. That will bless each of us and our team enormously – Virginia, Burt, Rick Heeren, Carrie and Rod Stone, David Bean, Georgia Willis, Ben Stewart, Butch Mills, Kay Dunkley, Nasir Iqbal, and YOU. Carrie and Rod need our help ASAP. So do Nasir and Deborah Smith.

Your $14,400 seed will serve as the key to unlock extraordinary financial provision for …
1) Julia and me
2) Jerry and Sharon Graham
3) You and Carol
4) Deborah and David Smith
5) Ben and Kay Stewart
6) The Christian coaching networks world-wide
7) The entire MTC prayer team
8) The world-wide FCA network

Here’s what you will get for your $14,400 seed
1) Free passes for 12 people of your choosing to the 12-week quick start program
2) 1% of the gross income of Empower 2000 through December 31, 2011 (paid quarterly)
3) My coaching to help you launch your own weekly webinars for dreams and visions
4) 12 one-hour one-on-one coaching sessions for you by me
5) One professional coffee blog and one tea blog with 12 hours of training by Julia

You may sow your seed either as a one time payment of $14,400 or in 3 equal installments of $4,800. Presuming the Holy Spirit leads you to sow this UNCOMMON seed, I prefer for you to wire the money into my personal Suntrust checking account so the money is definitely available by June 12. Another alternative would be to mail your check to me overnight.

Please let me know what you decide to do by June 9 if possible. Thank you.

Blessings for UNCOMMON obedience and favor!

Subject: The wind of the breakthrough
To: Robert Sims

Hi Bob,

This morning while I was laying in bed reflecting, the LORD told me to re-send my 2-way prayer from yesterday to you this morning, but this time to include it directly in the email instead of as an attachment.

After getting up, I came downstairs, knelt down and prayed a few minutes. Then I came to my desk to journal. I was planning to listen to Genesis 49-50 (Jacob’s blessing on Joseph), but when I maximized iTunes, I noticed “Breakthrough Revival (prophecy),” the MP3 file you sent me yesterday, happened to be at the very top of my iTunes window I had opened. The Holy Spirit prompted me to listen to that again.

Here is how Bob Jones starts, “A week ago Friday I was in Nashville and I went and laid down at 3 o-clock. And I no sooner laid down and I was in what I call a trance. And I was waiting on a road and 12 men were coming toward me and I could see that they were angels. But one was in front of the others. And the one that was in front came up to me and said ‘My name is Breakthrough.’”

Nashville might well be the most spiritually warm city in America.

Here are some things the “BREAKTHROUGH” angel said that jumped out at me:
1) “I’m going to move among the common people” (bloggers)
2) “If you do what I tell you, we are going to bring many into the Kingdom”
3) “I use tools!”
4) “His angels are like winds. I believe he said Move, Move, Move. It is 3 cities that are ready.”
5) “It’s America’s time for breatkthrough. Study about breakthrough in scripture. Most of the breakthroughs come through praise.”
6) “It’s now.” .. It’s time the Body of Christ quits being observers and becomes participaters.

The web is the number one business tool available. Ted Baehr, the founder of Movie Guide, uses this for his email signature, “He controls the media controls the culture.” Since the web is the most powerful type of media on the planet now, Ted’s statement can be boiled down to “He who controls the web controls the culture.”

We know the number “12″ in Biblical numerology represents the apostolic. Yesterday I spent 4 hours in the Holy of holies composing the email I sent you. This morning while reviewing that, I noticed the frequency of the number 12 in that email

1) $14,400 = 12 x $1200
2) 12-week quick start program
3) 12 weeks of Internet Marketing coaching
4) Free passes for 12 people of your choosing to the 12-week quick start program
5) 12 one-hour one-on-one coaching sessions for you by me
6) One professional coffee blog and one tea blog with 12 hours of training by Julia
7) “Web apostle” – In her email sent after the Web Marketing Intensive Training Seminar, Deborah Smith referred to me as that. That is the first time anyone ever referred to me as “web apostle.”
“3 cities” – In yesterday’s email, I wrote, “Your seed will form a triad of Kingdom-minded companies to storm the gates of hell.”

The Holy Spirit will process this for you to lead you into all truth.

Blessings,

“Now reform your ways and your actions and obey the Lord your God. Then The Lord will relent and not bring disaster he has pronounced against you.” (Jeremiah 26:13)

Where were you on 9-11 when the planes crashed into the terrorist targets?

What will you do today and this weekend to honor those who died and those who risk their lives to protect yours every day?

Today, as I write this message, I’m filled with sorrow. I intensely feel the pain of those who lost loved ones in the horrible terrorist attacks that took place on that fateful day of Sept 11, 2009.

According to Wikipedia, “Early in the morning on September 11, 2001, nineteen hijackers took control of four commercial airliners en route to San Francisco and Los Angeles from Boston, Newark, and Washington, D.C. (Washington Dulles International Airport). At 8:46 a.m., American Airlines Flight 11 was crashed into the World Trade Center’s North Tower, followed by United Airlines Flight 175 which hit the South Tower at 9:03 a.m. Another group of hijackers flew American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon at 9:37 a.m. A fourth flight, United Airlines Flight 93, whose ultimate target was thought to be either the United States Capitol or White House, crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania at 10:03 a.m, after the passengers on board engaged in a fight with the hijackers.”

When the first plane crashed into the World Trade Center’s (WTC) North Tower, I was on my knees praying with Pastor Mark Jarvis in his office at Open Door Baptist Church. I distintly remember one of the church staff members running into the office to tell us what happened and to look at the TV.

It turned out that my brother’s life was spared that day, but one of his estate planning clients was on the very first plane that crashed into the WTC North Tower.

Larry has worked as an estate planning attorney in Manhattan for about 15 years now. It so happened that in 2001 he was doing estate planning work for a Jewish attorney on Tuesdays in the North Tower. All other days of the week, he worked in mid-town Manhattan. On 9-11, my brother didn’t go to work because his Jewish boss had flown to Texas for some meeting there.

Larry lives in Glenridge NJ and was referred by one of his neighbors to do estate planning work for a lady who lived in Rhode Island or Massachusetts. She met with Larry in the North Tower shortly before 9-11 to ask him to help with estate planning for her husband who was dying from terminal cancer. On 9-11 she boarded Flight 11 in Boston with her 5 or 6 year old child intending to fly to CA. However, she ended up crashing into the same building she had met my brother in.

In 2001, I had been praying faithfully every day for my family and God honored those prayers.

On Wednesday Sept 12, 2001, I went to my very first FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes) huddle of my life. What happened was extraordinary. See “The Impact of the FCA on My Life.”

Yesterday, Bahama Bob shared with me his shocking 9-11 story and asked me to post an audio recording of the story which I did. Through an exraordinary sequence of events, Bob actually flew in a small plane from Maine to Boston with Mohammad Atta, the ringleader of the 19 hijackers, who was flying to Boston to hijack Flight 11. If you don’t believe in God or angels, Bob’s story might well change your mind and heart.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, forgive us in this nation for allowing prayer and the Bible to be removed from much of public life. Forgive us for all the idols we have allowed into our lives that prevent us from putting you first in all areas of our lives. Restore a culture of prayer in our homes, businesses, and communities. May we reform our ways and our actions and obey the Lord our God. Thank You for all the brave men and women who put their lives on the line to protect us on a daily basis. May you bless in a very special way today the families and friends of those who lost loved ones eight years ago on 9-11. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

P.S. If you have comments to share, please post them publicly on my blog rather than sending me emails. Thank you.

I’m thrilled about all the fruit Jerry and I are seeing as a result of the Web 2.0 course we are leading. It’s exciting to be able to coach other believers to share their stories, products, and services with the world. We’ve seen people with absolutely no Web 2.0 presence a few months ago begin to soar like eagles.

Rod Stone, a professional singer and song writer, is one of those people. I have seen an explosion in his creativity as a result of having the tools and the know-how to share his songs and stories on his new blog “Stuff I Believe In.”

Last week, Rod created and published a YouTube video called “The Prayer” using one of his songs. I’ve listened to and/or watched that more than ten times already. It’s quickly becoming one of my favorite YouTube videos of all time.

Rod writes:

“I have been amazed at how quickly our once Christian nation has descended into moral relativism and Secular Humanism. God’s once tangible covering of protection and prosperity is slowly being taken away and what is left is fear and despair along with the uneasy feeling that we will soon go the way of Rome. We are seeing the rapid dismantling of our capitalistic system to centralized government control. Sound familiar? Just look at Europe.

When Jesus is taken out of everything, there is nothing to do but spiral into the morass of darkness that comes when you put man above God. We need to stand as Christians and fight for truth, not from a place of hatred but from a place of conviction and love. This has always been a part of the Christian experience and I pray this song will be a reminder that we are to love and even pray for those who persecute us. Sounds kind of hard doesn’t it? But with out those prayers people will never find the freedom that comes through Christ, and this once great nation will continue to fall into decline.”

CLICK HERE to visit Rod’s life-changing blog “Stuff I Believe In.” If you enjoy it, take an extra 3 minutes to write a comment on both the blog and at YouTube. 20 people have already done so. A group of us is having a Twitter party today making people aware of this video. It you’re on Twitter join in. Rod’s Twitter name is rodstonemusic.

Prayer Power
Heavenly Father, thank You for Rod Stone’s amazing gift of song and story telling. Thank You for his amazing YouTube video The Prayer. May that video touch many, many hearts and help bring America back to its foundational roots. In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.

Blessings to stand and fight for truth in love and with conviction!
