Influence For Proliferation

Influence For Proliferation

According to the revelation of Prophet Isaiah, our children are to have a greater inheritance and influence than we have had (also Prov 13:22). That cannot happen without facilitation and that begins with the hearts of the fathers turned (by designed effort) to the children. Undeniable and lasting influence and facilitation are by the blessing (by large-groupverbalization and by touch) of children by fathers. Abraham’s blessings are claimed by the descendants of both of his sons even to this day. Jacob’s blessings upon his 12 sons were evidenced by the proliferation of 12 entire tribes who still possess some of the most valuable and strategic property on earth. The most powerful nations on earth have not been able to breach those God-ordained blessings. We see, therefore, the great significance of spiritual fathers enlarging their tent to embrace persons whose natural fathers had no spiritual deposit for them. It is wise to note that Prophet Malachi shows our Lord’s desire not only for the hearts of the fathers to be turned to the children but also the hearts of the children to be turned to the fathers (Mal 4:6). It would seem to be a two-way street of children reaching to fathers as well as visa-versa.

God’s Great Hand

Word given at Saddle Creek Church: The 4:12 Center on 2-17-13:

Forget not your God. Forget not who He is. Forget not His greatness. Forget not what He has done and know that He is still working in the earth. He is still working in behalf of His people. For the Lord your God does not simply have a Hand, He has a Great Hand. And when He puts His Hand forth, thathand stop which He intends to stay will stay and not get around that Hand. For the Lord your God has, in recent months, stayed enemy attacks upon this your nation. The Lord your God has stayed attacks upon His people Israel. The Lord your God has moved behind the scenes that cannot be spoken of in public, cannot be aired on news broadcasts. But the Lord has stayed the enemy and has stayed his attempts to destroy the liberties of those who enjoy the liberty of speaking of this Christ, of taking His message to the four corners of the earth. The Lord has stayed things in your personal life in recent weeks that you are not aware of because I will not always announce to you overtly and in a dramatic way what I have done for you. Just know that I am your beneficent Father, my eye is upon the sparrow that falls, so how much more is my eye upon you? Not only is my eye upon you but when I see certain things I stretch forth my Hand and I stay the enemy. I have stayed the enemy even this week against your nation, against Israel and against your household. And in future, look to me and rejoice because I am the Great God with a Great Hand and I stay the enemy in your behalf.

Enlarge And Stretch Forth

Enlarge And Stretch Forth

It is this writer’s conviction that the term “them” of Isa.54:2 is with reference to the term “children” in v.1. “Enlarge the place of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; (Isa 54:2 KJV) The expectant (byboy-set-tent facilitation, not by accident) coming into place of those “children” and the increasing number of “them” is the reason of necessity to “enlarge, stretch, spare not, lengthen, and strengthen” (whether they be biological children or spiritual sons/daughters makes no difference). I believe it is with good reason that we count everyone within our sphere of influence as cause to enlarge our “tent” of edification/facilitation whether we are affectionately disposed or not. We must extend our influence through more than biological children to fulfill the mandate of Gen 1:28—”Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it.” Our spiritual children should outnumber our natural children.

The Degree Of Influence We Have

The Degree Of Influence We Have

Seasonally, individuals and entities must re-evaluate the type and degree of influence we have upon culture and adjust for the coming season (Gen 13:14-17; Acts 9:1-6; 10:11-15). Enlarge the tentplace of thy tent, and let them stretch forth the curtains of thine habitations: spare not, lengthen thy cords, and strengthen thy stakes; (Isa 54:2 KJV) It is obvious (by consideration of God’s nature [creative, growth, maturity, increase] and by Scriptural principle) that God desires each of our spheres of influence to increase. It is also obvious that some degree of effort and participation on our part is expected by the terms used in v.2: enlarge, stretch, spare not, lengthen, strengthen. While I do realize that this portion of Scripture was written to Israel concerning the building up of Jerusalem, I do not discount it because it was also written and preserved for us today; and the nature and principles of our Lord are timeless (Rom 15:4; 1Co 10:11).

“And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him: “Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward, eastward, and westward; 15 for all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants forever.” (Gen.13:14-15,NKJV)

Fruit-of-The-Spirit-Results

Fruit-of-The-Spirit-Results (Kathy)

We may not always be able to see the root cause of sudden mood swings or inordinate needs or cycling itches that scratching doesn’t helpfruit-pr or those extreme emotions that seem to erupt in us, but we can learn to recognize their presence and influence, and we can learn to overcome them.  The key is choosing to be led of the Spirit which will get us fruit-of-the-Spirit-results instead of frustration’s results in the coming year.

Rom.8:6 “For the mind set on the flesh is death, but the mind set on the Spirit is life and peace.”
