This is that … 12.20.20
This is what happens when God shows up!
Separation for Judgment
When evil men rose up against Moses and God’s plan for Israel, God told Moses to separate all the congregation from the wicked.
“Now it came to pass, as he finished speaking all these words, that the ground split apart under them, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up, with their households and all the men with Korah, with all their goods. So they and all those with them went down alive into the pit; the earth closed over them, and they perished from among the assembly.” (Numbers 16:31-33)
Abraham’s nephew Lot, who lived in the depraved city of Sodom, was removed from his home, he and his family, before God’s righteous judgment was released.
“Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens. So He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.” (Genesis 19:24-25)
Jesus reveals the separation of the End-Days.
“Therefore as the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of this age. The Son of Man will send out His angels, and they will gather out of His kingdom all things that offend, and those who practice lawlessness, and will cast them into the furnace of fire. There will be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then the righteous will shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears to hear, let him hear!” (Matthew 13:41-43)
This is what happens when God shows up!
Separation for The Glory: Intercessory Prayer
One hundred twenty people were praying in the upper room on the day that changed everything.
“When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of fire, and one sat upon each of them. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.” (Acts 2:1-6)
One aspect of this divine utterance is the “keys of the Kingdom of God,” meaning words of administrative authority that bind and loose. Read Matthew 16:18-19, Jeremiah 1:9-10, Isaiah 51:16, Mark 16:14-20.
Why doesn’t all of The Church know this and do it?
Hence, rampant wickedness in our nation … like the stupidity of some cities de-funding the police. Let’s get back in the driver’s seat and let Holy Spirit have His way! The “sword of the Spirit” is our only offensive weapon … “praying always with all prayer …” (Ephesians 6:17-19)
Separation of the Ekklesia
Ekklesia means “the called out ones.” Jesus said, “You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go bear fruit …”
“Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the living God. As God has said: ‘I will dwell in them, and walk among them. I will be their God, and they shall be My people.’ Therefore, ‘come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.’” (2 Corinthians 6:14-18)

2020 – 2021 The Great Awakening
I am often at the beach looking at the grand and enormous body of water called the Pacific Ocean. Sometimes I can see a wave developing very far from shore coming in. Waves get larger as they come closer to the shore. If those waves and currents below are strong enough, the power of them can easily sink a large ship. There is a great wave of glory approaching the nations; some of its effects are here now. Nothing can stop it.
This past year God has been separating His Church from the world.
That means God has been convicting us of sinful practices that hold back the Holy Spirit from releasing signs, wonders, and miracles. 2020 has required us to be more holy and single-minded to fight the good fight of faith, to “wage a good warfare” contending for the anointing and the Kingdom of God to prevail for The Church, our Constitution, our nation, our President, and our freedoms; so many in the military have suffered and even shed their blood to save this nation. We cannot grow weary and give up for our finest hour has now come!
This is what happens when God shows up!
The Glorious Church and The Angelic Armies of God
Not only are we the generation that will be caught up in the air in a twinkling of an eye to meet Jesus, but we have a responsibility to bring in the lost, for Father is preparing His Son’s wedding feast. “On the third day there was a wedding …” (John 2:1) Selah
We also have the joy of fulfilling this scripture:
“Sit at My right hand till I make Your enemies Your footstool. Are they not all ministering spirits sent forth to minister for those who will inherit salvation?” (Hebrews 1:13-14) Through the power of the Holy Spirit in us, we are working with the Greater Armies of Angels who are released now! They are waiting for The Church to release their assignments.
The Church Body is the governing force on the earth, not any political party!
The nations are as a “drop in a bucket” to our great King! Read Isaiah 40:12-23. Our assignments are released as we rule and “reign,” taking our seat in heavenly places in Christ. (Romans 5:17 & Ephesians 2:6) Pull down strongholds, call things that be not as though they were. Subdue every tactic of the enemy. Praying in tongues is required for this. And, tongues will build up your courage! It is a super-weapon that devils flee from!
This is that … which God has waited for …
“But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now have obtained mercy.”
(1 Peter 2:9-10)
All things are moving toward the return of Jesus Christ.
