What Does Accusation Sound Like?

Melissa—So, what does accusation sound like? Literal accusation is a claim that someone has done something wrong or illegal. Criticism is an opinion or judgment of what is wrong or bad about somebody. Slander is saying something false or malicious that damages somebody’s reputation; it is also gossip or rumors.  It is even words spoken out of skepticism, bitterness, resentment or offense.
Here’s how this works: It’s repetition that builds a force against someone.  It is when the issue is rehearsed and it’s rehearsed with multiple people, when there is continual mouthing of accusations day after day, week after week.  When it’s shared and rehearsed with others it builds a force.  Some things said might be true, but words compound the issue if they are not dealt with.  Again, this is the epitome of using your powers for good and not evil.  Our words are intended to make a difference and we tend to forget that it goes both ways.

Crying Out in a Pressing Time

This is a most trying and pressing time we are living in. It is the time to heed the Holy Scriptures that instruct the people of God to cry out. In dark hours, in the dark wrestling with our souls when we have been bombarded continually with narrative, propaganda, outright lies, ordeals that cause our physical to drain us, it is time to lift our voice. At that point, for some reason, it becomes really easy to doubt. But nothing is impossible with El Elyon, no matter what absurdities the people are entrenched in. His name is Elohim the great Yahweh. Nothing is impossible with the Great God of Heaven and earth.

Jesus Proved You Have Value

Kathy—Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection and ascension were for our salvation.  That salvation includes the power to overcome any obstacle to your life and purpose.  The fact that Jesus came to die for you proves that you have value.  That’s your trump, that’s undeniable proof that you have value!  Now let’s figure out how to get our emotions to agree with that truth so that we don’t bottom-out if someone treats us as if we don’t have worth. It is a lie to believe someone else’s problem can make you worthless.  Matthew 10:30 “the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore, you are of more value than many sparrows.” We are praying you discover daily your worth to your God.

Accusation and Agreement

Melissa—Here’s what accusation does: It builds up the power of a demonic force through agreement.  Our enemy is looking for those that carry power in their words to agree with his wrath and build a demonic force against an individual, a family, a church.  Here’s what accusation can cause: sickness, burdens, bondage, complacency, ineffectiveness, a sudden halt to progress, to name a few.  Unless it’s dealt with you will go no further or possibly get worse! 

Calling Out to God Almighty

As the people of God assemble today let them rejoice in the voice of Father God and let them urge one another to call out to Him in behalf of our families and our nation and the heavy instances of current events in the world abroad. Let the people of God lift up a concert of intervening, crying-out-to-God prayer for His righteousness to abound in the earth and that He do works of righteousness in families, churches and the hurting. Jer.33:3,Amp—”Call to Me and I will answer you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things…”.

Testimonies From Kingdom Congress 2022

Some of the testimonies of healing that took place at KC2022: (1) a man came to church without his hearing aids today because he can hear just as good without them since Fri. night; (2) during the service Friday a little girl looked over at her grandmother and said, “Grandma, my leg doesn’t hurt any more”; (3) during the service, a lady was having some difficulty breathing and her heart was beating rapidly. (I had my eyes closed.) She said that I pointed back to where she was seated and said, “Be whole in the name of Jesus!”. She said the power of God hit her and knocked her back up against her chair. She turned to her daughter and said, “Whew, I’m better now!”. She was at church this morning feeling just fine. (4) During the Healing Service Friday Pastor Don Pope walked off the platform and played his soprano sax over the congregation. One lady said that she had not been able to take a deep breath in several months because within a two month span her husband died, her son-in-law died and a friend died. But when Don lifted his horn over in her direction and played she got a release and was suddenly able to breathe deep again.; (5) Don’s wife was unable to attend the meetings because she has been suffering with a lot of pain caused by gout stones. He had called her when the healing service started Fri. morning so she could listen. When he started playing she put the phone to her side where the pain was. He suddenly, very rapidly, hit several notes with force and when he did her pain completely stopped.; (6) I had a word of knowledge that people were being healed of sadness. There was a lady present who had been sad for many years over her relationship with a family member but when she heard the word, it completely lifted and she walked out of the building without the sadness. (7) An older lady who has had pain and difficulty of movement with a hip stood up and was moving around, even dancing, better than in a long time and it was without pain. After prayer for healing Fri. morning, over half the attendees raised their hand to say that they felt a touch of the Lord and improvement in their body. Blessed be the name of the Lord forever! If I were you and I had any physical need relating to one of these mentioned, I would raise my hands and claim healing in that area (or areas). If I had a need that was not anything related to one of those mentioned, I would still claim healing by the stripes of Jesus. (1Pe.2:24) PTL!

Cry Out

The Lord God Almighty is the One who actually commands us to call upon Him. Jer.33:3,Amp—”Call to Me and I will answer you, and tell you [and even show you] great and mighty things, [things which have been confined and hidden], which you do not know and understand and cannot distinguish.’” That “call to me” is in, what linguists actually call, the command voice.  The Hebrew word for “cry out”, tsa’aq, means to cry out or call out for help unto God under great distress. It also means to cry out in great desperation to Jehovah while in great need. It is the cry that calls out to Jehovah to display His power to glorify His name.

That Stillness of Heart

Kathy—When Jesus said, “My peace I give unto you,” He was not telling His disciples they would never be troubled, but He was giving them His power to be unshaken by it.  That stillness of heart and mind is not a matter of our determination but rather a matter of His faithfulness.  It’s His gift to us and it is a powerful shield in the face of opposition.  Father has not changed His mind nor His good plans because of conflicts.  So, we are watching to see a God outcome where His goodness prevails.  Luk 2:14–“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”

Power of Accusation

Melissa—This is where the power of accusation comes from: Proverbs 18:21 “Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Proverbs 11:9 “An hypocrite with his mouth destroyeth his neighbor” Prov. 15:4 (MSG) “Kind words heal and help; cutting words wound and maim.” It is the epitome of “using your powers for good and not evil”.  There is power in our words because God intended it that way so we can make a difference when we speak. The problem is that we tend to forget that it goes both ways.

Jehovah’s Names and Awesomeness

Quite often we sing that nothing is impossible with our awesome God. We worship Him as the God of the impossible and sing and testify that nothing is too hard for God. Worship is important on several levels but there is that level where we realize Who Jehovah is and what He can do. That is why Jehovah gave Israel His names. When they worshipped those names, they had opportunity to realize just how awesome and capable their mighty God was Who desired to act in their behalf.
