Editorial Group Special Section: Hanukkah – Teaching from Rabbi Zev On Hebrew roots-Receive The Breaker Anointing of the Maccabee

(Source: National Information)

Origin of The Hanukkah

The Hanukkah festival literally means “sacrifice”, also known as “Hanukkah” or “Candlelight Festival”. It is an eight-day festival to commemorate God’s mercy when the temple was destroyed. The light and the oil did not go out, which was significant for the restoration of the Temple. God is merciful and He can establish your future, no matter what  the circumstances are. 

The Hanukkah is a commemoration of time of 165 BC. During the reign of the Syrian dynasty Antiochus Ibifani, strongly enforced Greek culture, the practice of  Jewish faith was banned, the priesthood was abolished, the temple of Jerusalem was desecrated, the statue of Zeus was placed on the altar, any protesters were tortured and slaughtered. At that time, a priest named Matthias, Hassoni, led his five sons to revolt, took over Jerusalem, restored the temple, destroyed the Greek deities, cleansed the temple and the sacrament, reestablished the priesthood and restored the religious ceremony. Religious rituals of the temple were carried out for a total of eight days, and the Sukkot Festival, which was not allowed to be done during Syrian occupation of the temple, was carried out. Therefore, the festival of “Repairing the temple” “Chanukah” got the name in Hebrew. … Detailed Reading

Editorial Group Special Section: Nita (LaFond) Johnson – Jan. 2009 New Orleans Revival Services (2)

But there is a people who God is calling back to the pre-fall state, where they would be walking in the same kind of glory that Adam, Eve, Moses, and Enoch walked in. He’s calling His Church to rise up and come higher and He’s going to provide the anointing for it to happen. Now, of course, Jesus had publicly revealed that He was walking in the Jubilee anointing, though He did not specifically call it by that name. As He rolled up the scroll of the prophet Isaiah, having just read the passage in 61:1-2, he added, “Today the Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing” (Luke 4:21). We, however, have yet to experience what He was walking in then. But we are reminded that He also said, “Greater things than I do, shall ye do” (John 14:12). So we know that there is something so great that even the Son of God stood in awe of it and yet, although promised for these last days, has not come to fulfillment. People want to take that Jubilee anointing and wrap it around healing. But, honestly, that is the least important function of it. … Detailed Reading

Editorial Group Special Section: Hanukkah – Teaching from Rabbi Zev On Hebrew roots-Receive The Breaker Anointing of the Maccabee

(Source: National Information)

Origin of The Hanukkah

The Hanukkah festival literally means “sacrifice”, also known as “Hanukkah” or “Candlelight Festival”. It is an eight-day festival to commemorate God’s mercy when the temple was destroyed. The light and the oil did not go out, which was significant for the restoration of the Temple. God is merciful and He can establish your future, no matter what  the circumstances are. 

The Hanukkah is a commemoration of time of 165 BC. During the reign of the Syrian dynasty Antiochus Ibifani, strongly enforced Greek culture, the practice of  Jewish faith was banned, the priesthood was abolished, the temple of Jerusalem was desecrated, the statue of Zeus was placed on the altar, any protesters were tortured and slaughtered. At that time, a priest named Matthias, Hassoni, led his five sons to revolt, took over Jerusalem, restored the temple, destroyed the Greek deities, cleansed the temple and the sacrament, reestablished the priesthood and restored the religious ceremony. Religious rituals of the temple were carried out for a total of eight days, and the Sukkot Festival, which was not allowed to be done during Syrian occupation of the temple, was carried out. Therefore, the festival of “Repairing the temple” “Chanukah” got the name in Hebrew.

Significance of Maccabee’s Bow That Broke The Culture Of The Pagan Empire 

As we celebrate this feast, let us learn from the faith and courage of Matathia’s son Maccabee the warrior, who refused to be assimilated into worldly culture and lies, for us to become the light on a lampstand, to illuminate in dark places, and patiently wait for the returning of the Bride Groom; the bow and arrow of month of Kislev is the same bow and arrow used in the Maccabee Revolution. It symbolizes God’s people can be as good an archery as the tribe of Benjamin. To defeat the culture of Pagan’s empire, especially during the current conflict of war between Israel and Syria, may the miracle of Maccabees happen again in the present state of Israel.

The Breaker Anointing 

Matathias and his sons were a priestly family. They were not good at war nor familiar with weapons. But out of their faith and believes they stood as soldiers and defeated the Syrian army. They restored Jerusalem. They were called “Maccabees” means “a group of mallets.”

Micah 2:13 “The One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their King will pass through before them, the Lord at their head.””

The original text of the Maccabees also mean a group of iron mallets that broke the gate.

Possess The Gate of The Enemy

Genesis 22: 17-18 “I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because you have obeyed me.”

This promise is not only given to Israel -the bloodline of Abraham, but also to the church, Abraham’s spiritual children. How Israel with small number can defeat and sieged the surrounding Arab and Islamic countries and build a strong state of Israel? Similarly, God wants us to align with Israel, to break through the nations and cultures that surround us, and possess the gate of the enemy and become the trophy of the kingdom of God.

The Gate of Hell Will Not Prevail Against The Church Ekklesia

Matthew 16: 17-18 “Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven. And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not overcome it.”

What Is The Gate of Hell?

Ephesians 2: 2-3 “In which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. All of us also lived among them at one time, gratifying the cravings of our flesh and following its desires and thoughts. Like the rest, we were by nature deserving of wrath.”

Our society, cities, nations, and even customs and culture are linked to the power of darkness, forming a stronghold, a system of fortress, a state of consciousness, not physical, but spiritual.

2 Corinthians 10: 3-5 “For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. he weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.”

Therefore, church Ekklesia play the role  like Maccabees. It is a group of iron mallets, an overcoming team. They will break the Babylonian system behind the world and bring them into submission to Christ Jesus.

Apostolic Church Receives The Breaker Anointing Of The Maccabee 

The church must have the kingdom mindset, to bring the kingdom of heaven unto earth today, and live the life of heaven on earth. We will see the church Ekklesia like a group of mallets sent from the kingdom of heaven, as heavenly Congress, to execute court of heaven, An organized, systematic, influential executive team on the earth, aligning with the systems, truths, and cultures of heaven.

To transform our cities, societies, and nations, we must see the rise of the apostolic church, because God has given the five fold ministries of apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to build Ekklesia the body of Christ.

It is written:

Ephesians 4: 8-12 When he ascended to heaven, he ransacked the enemy and rewarded everyone with gifts. (As far as being ascended, are n’t they first descended underground? Those who descend are ascended to the heavens to be filled with all things.) He has given apostles, prophets, evangelists, and pastors. And teachers, to fulfill the saints, to do their part, to build the body of Christ

Christ is the cornerstone, the rock, and the apostles and prophets are the foundation.

Ephesians 2: 20-21 “built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord.”

Because Jesus has already overcome the ruler of the air, He has given all power and authority to the church. The apostle and the prophet play the role of overcomer.

Matthew 16:19 “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”

We saw how Peter established the church in Jerusalem at Pentecost, how Paul expanded the church throughout Europe to transform cities, cultures, and even the entire Roman Empire was turned over. Maccabees turnover Greek’s culture, and Peter and Paul’s apostolic team turned Roman culture around. In the same way, In God’s reign the apostolic church of God will arise in Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, and even Asian countries, to broke the gates of bronze and cut the bars of iron.

Isaiah 45: 2 “I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron.“

But there is a people who God is calling back to the pre-fall state, where they would be walking in the same kind of glory that Adam, Eve, Moses, and Enoch walked in. He’s calling His Church to rise up and come higher and He’s going to provide the anointing for it to happen. Now, of course, Jesus had publicly revealed that He was walking in the Jubilee anointing, though He did not specifically call it by that name. As He rolled up the scroll of the prophet Isaiah, having just read the passage in 61:1-2, he added, “Today the Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing” (Luke 4:21). We, however, have yet to experience what He was walking in then. But we are reminded that He also said, “Greater things than I do, shall ye do” (John 14:12). So we know that there is something so great that even the Son of God stood in awe of it and yet, although promised for these last days, has not come to fulfillment. People want to take that Jubilee anointing and wrap it around healing. But, honestly, that is the least important function of it. That anointing is going to transform your souls when it comes; it is going to make you what you can’t be without it; it’s going to make you what you were created to be. Your call is to let everything go that could hinder your flow in the River, because that River is coming. And I’m going to tell you where it’s going to start—right here in New Orleans!

When I say in New Orleans, I’m not necessarily saying that the first transfigured person is going to come from out of here. Nor am I saying that it couldn’t be so. What I am saying is, God is going to start the move of His glory in New Orleans. He’s going to do it and it will go from glory to glory in ever-increasing power and majesty. But it is going to start here. There is an awakening that has been assigned to this city and no other city can have it first. It has to start in New Orleans. Why? Because, for whatever reason, God has decreed it. That is not to say that revival will not break out in other places. However, this great move of which I now speak will begin here. My dear brothers and sisters, the day is coming when we must lay down the flesh if we’re going to ride in the glorious River and stay afloat. We must put down the flesh and, while doing so, we’ve got to throw the world away, because the weight of that is heavier than the flesh. The day is coming, and it is here. The Lord is calling us to go the next step higher in this life. He has called us to walk in the Spirit, closer to Him, in all His ways.

We fight Him though, for it is extremely hard to humble ourselves under the discipline of God. We don’t realize that God is trying to squeeze us like grapes to get that old wine out so He can put the new wine in. My brothers and sisters, this new wine is so glorious—the fragrance, aroma, and color is so glorious—that it is worth all the squeezing to get the old wine out so there is room for the new. You really want it no matter how much you may resist and fight it. You want it and need it to walk with the Son of God. He is setting that table before you; anyone who is willing to pay the price can walk with the Father like the Son of Man walked with Him. This dispensation cannot end until it has moved into the glory exceeding the days of Moses. It must come to pass because it is in the Word, and it has to be fulfilled because it was spoken from the mouth of God.

Where will you be? Are you going to stand to the side dipping your toe in the River, afraid of the frigidity? Are you going to stand there and say, “Well…, umm…, those people look kind of crazy dipping around in all that glory… it is not coming the way I thought it would… they are just kind of humble and act a bit too holy… I mean they walk around like a bunch of people emptied of self… I don’t know if I want to go into that River.” Is that where you’re going to be?

Please jump into the River even if it is over your head. Please dive right in. Take note, you will not be able to—if you do not begin preparing today. The fear of dying will stand between you and the River. It will make you stay on the side of the River looking at all that glory. Dying? How? Dying to the flesh and to the world, on the cross. The fear of dying can be overwhelming because the River is so new and the present so familiar. Leaving the present to go into the new, especially when you know you have to cross over death to get there, is extremely frightening. Yet that was what Israel had to do—cross over the Jordan River, an action that could result in instant fatality, and which therefore aptly symbolizes the dying to self. They had to cross the river and they were frightened by it. But they had been taken through enough of the discipline of the Lord that they overcame their fear. They went into the Jordan because they knew that was the only way into the Promise Land.

We must be willing to die to self and the reward is a glory that is greater than in the days of Moses. What can be greater than what the Bible tells about the days of Moses?—the utterly incomparable transfigured life no less! Jesus took three men up to the mountain and was transfigured before them because He wanted mortal man to know what he was called to. He wanted all humanity to grasp the immense reality of their calling to become much more than they knew they could be! It was critical that human eyes see the transfigured state of the Lord Jesus Christ so we would know where we are headed.

He makes us more than we can be. To be sure, not everyone will walk around with the glowing light of His glory, though there will be some that will. Nevertheless, those not called to emanate the light in that transfigured state, but who do in fact walk in the transfigured state, will emanate the virtues of Christ. In the eyes of God, and all of heaven, they will be as beautiful as those who are walking in the manifested glorious light.

The Church will come to walk in such humility that to see one who has been transfigured will be like seeing the Lord Jesus Christ Himself. All the beauty of the virtues of Christ will be evident in the lives that are being transfigured. These will not don two-thousand dollar suits nor dangle fifty-thousand dollar rings from their fingers, nor will they palanquin themselves in expensive automobiles. They will simply not live an extravagant life-style. If they do, you will know immediately they are not one of “them,” because no one who walks close to Jesus will do that. You will know them because they will stay humble in the eyes of man. You look at them and you will think… Well, she looks rather ordinary. And so she is—along with all the other transfigured ones. No one will be able to fault them in their lowliness, however, for the beauty of Christ will emanate from them. They will walk in power and authority because of the glory of His virtues in them. Christ will be living His life out through them and they will walk in His authority as the Son of God. And for these who walk in the authority of the Son, nothing will be impossible. They will have overcome the devil, the flesh, and the world. Further, many will have overcome even death itself.

Can you believe all this? Do you have the faith for it? If you don’t, you need to get into the Book (The Bible) and prayer and get the faith for it, because it’s coming in our lifetime. The glory of God is going to visit His Church and, through His Church, He is going to visit the world. The world has to have the demonstration, and they have to see the revelation of Christ, for by it they will be judged whether they are worthy of the Kingdom or not. But in these last days, because the darkness will be so intense, God is going to bring forth the light and intensity that has never been seen before—He must, for the sake of His Church and for the sake of the lost. The Church must go up because she has gone down so far. In humility, the Church will go up. When she starts to walk so deep in love, all distinctions will vanish and the light of the glory of Jesus Christ will reign supreme. In the glorified Church, no one is going to care about your nationality, race, denomination, or beliefs. Your heart is going to be so filled with the Gospel and everything you are and everything you say and do is going to reveal the Gospel through you! This must be. He cannot close the pages of time until this transpires. But you must prepare for it. It’s not going to sweep over you by accident. You must prepare for dying today, being willing to let go of that ugly pride. Every chance you have to either humble or lift yourself up, you must make the choice, carefully, remembering that the meek of the earth will be the glorified ones.

I think the most incredible thing that the Bible says about Moses is not that the glory emanated from his face but the fact that this once-upon-a-time haughty prince of Egypt became the meekest man on the face of the earth. He walked with God and God walked with Him. Because Christ lived in him, he was consumed and possessed by the living God. He was no longer his own nor did he desire his own will. Thus he stayed with the Jewish community for forty years, tolerating their infighting, grumbling, complaining, and murmuring. He might have been broken by it all, but he was so meek, and he loved Israel so much he offered up his very life and moreover, his very soul if he must, lest God would give up on His people. No doubt his journey to the perfection of his soul took some time. Hence Moses is not known by the forty years he spent in the palace, but by the forty years he spent in the desert getting prepared to walk with God.

It is not a crime to suffer for the sake of the Gospel. It is actually an honor to be diminished— especially when the Church and the world are looking on—because God is preparing you and cutting away all that flesh that you may be increased in God. Do not worry if people do not like what they see you are going through. That is okay. You are not thinking about today, you are thinking about the days that are coming, when this flesh He is carving away is going to be wrapped in His glory. In a very short time, the glory is going to flow and it can flow through you! In a very short time you can know the Father like Jesus did. The world may not understand, but the call is not to worry about those things. The call is to come and die that He might live and be glorified. The call; that you might be glorified and live in what He is going to do and become a vital part of what He is doing. Forget those things which are behind, forget them like Paul said, and press on towards the mark of the prize of the high calling of God in Jesus Christ. That is what we are called to do and the way in which we are called to walk. Sufficient is the evil for today. We are not supposed to carry yesterday on our shoulders nor are we to carry tomorrow. We are to carry one thing and one thing only—and that’s the glory of the living God.

So, my dear friends, rise up out of the past, present, and flesh. Rise up and seek God because He’s coming. In times past, the Spirit of the Lord kept speaking to Israel… A deliverer is coming… Egypt is being very tough on your flesh right now… that’s okay, because the deliverer is coming, and he is going to free you from the bondages of Egypt… the deliverer is coming… get ready and don’t wait. The Spirit of the Lord kept saying these things through the prophets… Don’t worry about all of this, but get your eyes focused because your Father is about to do something… the deliverer is coming. And when he finally came, in the person of Moses, what did Israel say? “Who sent you?” They were not ready, were they? The deliverer stood right before their faces and they were saying: “Why should we believe you? What do you have that we do not have? What makes you so important?” So God had to show them, through the deliverer and his spokesman, the signs and wonders. These were the very people that the Spirit of the Lord had been trying to prepare for over four hundred years for the coming of the deliverer they had been asking for. It sounds somewhat like what happened with Jesus. He was out healing and raising people from the dead, and the leaders of the people were standing back, saying, “Show us a sign.” Casting the demons from the demoniacs, opening blind eyes and deaf ears, limbs suddenly appearing wherever they were needed—yet they still said, “Show us a sign.”

It’s amazing how the people of God are so rarely ready for God’s promised deliverer. Yet God even now is getting ready to send the Deliverer of all nations, peoples, tongues, and tribes to His people living in the twenty-first century. He is preparing to bring them out of spiritual Egypt and into the glory of the Promised Land of glorious transfiguration. How many are ready? Get ready! Get into the Word. Read, study, and believe it! Don’t read it and say, “Well I don’t know about that,” like so many theologians do today. Read it, study it, believe it, and obey it. That last item is the big one—obey. Pray to God that He will give you the grace to believe, the wisdom to prepare and be changed, so that you will be ready for the River when it comes and be able to walk in the transfigured state. Pray: “Lord, I want to die that You might live in me!” Now, that will get His head turned! When He is walking down a path in Heaven and hears those prayers He will immediately turn around and see where they are coming from—for He wants badly to dispatch His angels to help those willing to enter into the place that He has created for them. I’m telling you the truth: I’ve not only seen it, I’ve experienced it. I know what I’m talking about. I’m telling you what I’ve heard, what I’ve lived, and what I’ve known and personally experienced.

Seek Him today!

Pray for United States: Senate Trial after House Impeachment Votes

James 4:4 “You adulterers,! Don’t you realize that friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God?”

Proverbs 10:9 “People with integrity walk safely, but those who follow crooked paths will be exposed.”

【Developing: On 12/18 Democrat-controlled House voted for passing the two Impeachment Articles onto Senate Trial. It is Democrats’ desire so can put various Republican witnesses and President himself to the witness stand. 

Two feeble Impeachable Articles against President’s are ‘Abuse of Office’ and ‘Obstruction of Congress’. They were thrown into the mix at the last minute by the House Judiciary Committee in its report, that still lack even the pretense of substance. (James 4:4)

Defending the President

President Trump must have a legal team chosen by him , who are strong, single-minded people dedicated to vindicating him, and have the Senators be determined to defend his constitutional fate and protect the constitution.  (Prov 10:9)

It takes 2/3 Senate votes of 100 senators to impeach the President, currently there are 53 Rep. Senators vs. 47 Democrat Senators. Will all 53 Republican Senators support the President? Chuck Schumer, the Democratic Leader, is still trying to convince 4 Rep. Senators to support the impeachment.

Democrats are proposing timeline for Senate Trial: 1/6, 7 and 1/9, 2020. President Trump desires a quick trial for voting.】

Israel Welcomes Hanukkah, the Festival of Light

Critical Event: Pray for Taiwan’s 2020 Presidential and Legislative Elections (4)

• Revelation 5:10 “You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.“

【Current Affairs: The founding father of the Republic of China, had implemented the Three Principles Of The People in the beginning of the People’s Republic of China: The expression of civil rights gave  the people the right to vote today. Also, according to the Bible, we Christians are bought and redeemed by the blood of Jesus, we belong to God, as citizens and priest of the kingdom of God, to exercise our kingship on the earth. (Rev. 5:10) We are both king and royal priesthood to rule and govern the nation, including the realm of family, business, art, media, education, and politics.

In the past, we neglected to govern these areas. When faced the people seeking  gender equality, systematically changed the value of society and family through the influence of art, the media, education, and politics for many years. They have lied and blinded the young generations, we have also been suppressed by this power, our voices have been continuously silenced.

After the Legislative Branch passed the Same Sex Marriage Equal Rights Act, although the churches pushed for three referendums, winning six or seven million votes each, successfully promoted the referendum. However, they encountered the Legislative Branch using the Interpretation of the Law 748 Enforcement to pass the same sex marriage law, it looks as if all our efforts were in vain, one step forward and two steps back.

However, in year 5780 the year of the mouth, we must align our words with the Word of God, and proclaim until we see His Word manifested in the land of the Republic of China-Taiwan. 】

Critical Events: Pray for The Industry of Entertainment – Children’s TV Shows Is Boosting LGBTQ Role

【Current Events: Every year, GLAAD, an advocacy organization that supports LGBTQ, provides a report card to the entertainment industry, “Where We Are on TV”. This is one way in which LGBTQ advocacy groups continue to put pressure on Hollywood, asking them to increase the role of LGBTQ in various TV shows. Sadly, it works very well. GLAAD said that the number of LGBTQ roles reported this year has reached 10%; and it hopes to reach 20% representation by 2025. Unfortunately, the organization is likely to achieve this goal.

GLAAD successfully penetrated and pressured Hollywood networks and producers to include more LGBTQ characters and story lines in their projects, including stories directed at children. Parents should know that as the streaming war between Netflix, Apple, Disney, and other companies heats up, more and more LGBTQ characters across the country may penetrate into small screens.

GLAAD reports that Netflix’s original show has “the highest number of LGBTQ characters,” with a total of 121, an increase of 33 from last year. Netflix also produced animated series specifically for LGBTQ children and families. More streaming services will join this year, including: Apple TV +, BET +, CBS All Access, DC Universe, Disney +, Facebook Watch, HBO Max, Peacock (NBC), Quibi, YouTube Premium, etc. Among them, Disney is the worst, most of its series may contain LGBTQ content.

Earlier this year, same-sex weddings and same-sex couples appeared on the children’s shows Arthur and My Little Pony. A 2017 episode of Disney Channel’s “Star vs. the Forces of Evil” describes a gay couple kissing at a male band concert. In the same year, a 13-year-old character appeared in the Disney children’s series “Andy Mike” and realized that he was gay and made it public to friends.

The LGBTQ movement aimed at the hearts of young Americans shows no sign of stopping. LGBTQ activists know that the more they control the media and messaging, the greater the impact on culture. When this global LGBTQ battle has expanded to children of younger ages; the question is, do you know what your child is looking at? 】 (Source: Focus on the family, November 11, 2019)

Pray for First Nation of North America – First Nation Tribes Come Into Unity In Oklahoma

【Current Affairs: Recently we read in the news about an unusually joint press conference with the chiefs of First Nation tribes (39 in total) in Oklahoma (for more reading, click here ). This is a dispute between the Indigenous Peoples Casino and the current governor in renewing the operating contract.

We reported on the “Convergence” Gathering of the Choctaw people in the “First Nation Prayer Section” on November 13 this year (click here for more reading ) That meeting testified  the prophecy of Chuck Pierce on the revival among the Oklahoma Native American.

As far as we know, there are more than 500 federally recognized Aboriginal tribes in the United States. Each tribe is a self governing Nation. Why is there such a dispute? We consulted with Jennifer Gomez, young Choctaw leader and learned that each tribe had signed different contracts with the federal and state governments. State of Oklahoma has previously signed operating contracts with Aboriginal casinos, but the incumbent governor has raised tax rates adding a huge impact on tribes. She also pointed out the spiritual significance of this event, so we can see that God has started the revival wave for Oklahoma.

Here is Jennifer’s reply to our sharing:

The Significance of 39 Tribal Chiefs United

           Recently in the media we have learned of a dispute between Governor Stitt and the 35 Chiefs are in a disagreement whether a compact is renewed or not in order to run gaming machines at the casinos.  It sounds like a normal business problem. Maybe if this were commercial casinos then it would be, but the tribal casinos make a huge difference in the state of Oklahoma，because they invest in the tribal communities.  This process has brought unity among all 39 tribes in the state of Oklahoma, and the presence of God has been in the mist of their private meetings.  So, the real question is, what is God doing? 

           In August 2019 in Durant, Oklahoma there was a gathering for the Choctaw along with Chief Gary Batton, and Holy Spirit delivered a strong message of unity unlocking the inheritance of the nation.  From there Chief Gary Batton was greatly encouraged of the role of Choctaw Nation in God’s plan to unlock the inheritance. He even initiated a prayer gathering at the capitol of Oklahoma and invited the other tribal leaders.  There are other chiefs with similar stories and how God was revealing to them how important it is to walk in unity.

           This issue with the state and the tribal leaders has brought unity, but they are also honoring the governor.  Technically, the governor never made an official proposal to the chiefs and most of his responses have been through media.  Even though he has done that, they are still willing to sit down with him and listen to what he has to say. The tribes are considered sovereignty and are considered as another nation.  The sad part is Governor Stitt has not honored or respected them as such, but they choose to honor him regardless. Oklahoma does not have reservations, but their properties are there sovereign land.  So, the communities are made up of First Nation people and non-natives. The reason I point that out is because the tribes take care of their communities from education to personal assistance and health care.  They have been doing that since they have been in business. The tribes are well vested in their communities.

           Now that you see what God is doing within the tribal leaders and how the tribal leaders are vested in just about every community of Oklahoma, now it is easier to see the Spirit of God is moving in a mighty way through Sovereign Leaders across Oklahoma.  A word Holy Spirit gave me to give Chief Batton is “this battle has brought unity in the leaders and it is unlocking the inheritance of healing of our people; continue to walk in unity and honor and you will see the hand of God move across Oklahoma.” This is truly the desire of the leaders, they want to see their people healed because they have tried every program, every teaching and everything else, but now they are feeling the presence of God in their meetings (that was confirmed by one of the chiefs directly to me.)  They will be the perfect ones to promote the Kingdom of Heaven! These are exciting times.

           In addition, this issue is a great example for our nation to witness.  Yes, they are in a disagreement, but these leaders choose to honor each other and not let their feelings or emotions rule their actions.  America’s leaders can learn from this and I hear it is being talking about in Washington DC. So again, what is God doing?
