My Kingdom Has Come

A Word From The Father . . .

There have been too many books on prayer written from that perspective. In some cases, the implication has been subtle, but nevertheless present. Men have claimed intimacy with Me that was purposed to make them unique among my people. It increased their sales and made them quite popular and sought after. I don’t want my people to look for a man or woman to communicate with Me for them; I want to communicate with them directly. It is sinners; the ones who do not know Me, that I have said need an intercessor. But you know Me and are known of Me. You need to come and sit before Me and I will give you help in your times of need.

There have been very few men or women of notoriety in these last generations who have walked in the same oneness with me as my Son Jesus. Those who did obtain such a walk were not men of renown nor were they men or women who influenced thousands of souls in ministry. Yet they knew Me and communicated with Me on a daily basis. Their prayers were answered then and are being answered now. They prayed for Me to restore order to the church so that the truth could be revealed. They prayed for Me to raise up a generation that would obey. They knew there would be such a generation that would manifest the power of the living Christ. The order is set in the earth. I have raised up true apostles who are faithful stewards of the mysteries of Christ. They will not compromise nor will they fail to address any issue that pertains to the Body. They are the true guardians of the faith.

The time has come for the Body of Christ to awaken and face the truth about itself. Your perception of God and His relationship with the Body is so warped, that without reform, it would be impossible to manifest the ministry of Christ in the earth today. The Bible says, “For God so loved the world…” But when the saints petition Me concerning sinners, they do so in a vein that suggests hesitancy on my part to heal or save the lost. This mindset has partially come about as a result of millions of saints praying millions of prayers on behalf of sinners that seem never to be answered. Even in your churches you see the sick and sinners dwelling among us year after year almost without any expectancy on their part or yours, for healing or deliverance. The sick and sinners have been there too long and have been prayed for too many times with no results. Their faith in the present and right now power of God has diminished considerably. Yet there remains a faint hope that one day there will be a true manifestation of the Sons of God that will confirm the scriptures they hear preached week after week.

Furthermore, many of your television evangelists’ ministries have compounded the problem. They have severely scarred my reputation in the Church and the world. Yes I have healed many, and saved many as well, in these great crusades, but there are greater numbers who came and were neither healed nor saved. The numbers of salvations reported were merely inflated to provide publicity for the next campaign. The church and the world have attended these crusades and have seen the many wheelchairs rolled in and out in the same state. They have witnessed the visible infirmities of many who leave untouched and virtually ignored by these great men and women of God. Why is this so? Why have I not healed them all? The answer is simple. Many of these great crusades have become good money making business ventures, hidden under the blanket of ministry. They have served to exalt a man (or woman), giving him or her more preeminence in the Body than my Son Jesus. For some, healing crusades have become such a big business until the evangelist himself has no real expectancy to see great healings take place. That is why he often ignores those who come with visible infirmities. These are never placed before the cameras. They are the blights in the service that continue to constantly come; in hope of being the evidence of the power of Jesus today.

Therefore, I have restrained myself even in the midst of the many afflictions that come before me. On the other hand, these television evangelists are not the product of my order. They have not perfected ministry because they have no perfected message. They are not the standard by which my people are to know Me. They are the reminders that a perfected healing ministry, as well as any other ministry, is based upon apostolic order, perfected prayer and fellowship with Me.

If a sinner comes to you with a condition or sickness and desires you to pray for him, this is not something at which you should sneer. You must realize that even though this man is a sinner, he has come to you, whom he believes to be a saint. He has come asking you to get in touch with your God and ask Him for healing on his behalf. He realizes that he may not be able to get to your God, so he comes to you and asks you to go before your God for him.

Now I want nothing more in this world but to be glorified. This becomes the perfect opportunity for Me to be glorified through the power and name of my Son Jesus. I want the sinner to acknowledge that I am God and that I am able to do a great work in him. His sickness is a means by which I am able to turn his attention to Me. Now if you pray for that man and he leaves in the same condition, without any explanation as to why he was not healed, and if there is no evidence of anyone else in his sphere of influence that he knows actually got healed by the power of prayer, then everything he heard about it in the past becomes suspect.

You have become a stumbling block to such a one. You may want to say that it is his lack of faith that is the hindrance. But this is not true in all cases. In most instances it is your relationship with Me that hinders great exploits in the operation of the gifts I placed in the Body. You have not communed with Me. You are not in a posture that allows Me to instruct you beforehand in such matters. I would have told you if I were not going to respond to that man’s need. And I would have told you why. I want the man to know Me for who I am.

This man walks away with many misconceptions of God and the Church. He convinces himself of at least one of the following: My sickness or situation is too hard even for God. I have sinned so much that there is no hope for me. There is nothing to this Jesus they preach. The minister has no power. God is not real. It is also slanderous to My Name for testimonies of the healing of aids and cancers to come forth in the great crusades, only to be confirmed as a non-reality by Inside Edition or some other media watch-dog organization. I am better than that and so are you. The fact is, you are a son of God and you can have a relationship with Me so powerfully strong, righteous, holy and preferred that you can ask and I will do. And if for any reason I will not do, as some desire of Me in prayer, I will tell you why.
