No Man Can Shut God's Open Door!

Revelation 3:8, “I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it...”

The Body of Christ cannot continue today with business as usual! God has opened a temporary window for the Church to call upon His Name and return to Theocratic rule. God is calling us back to His leadership as the collective Body of Christ. Jesus commissioned the Church to preach the Gospel Message. In Matthew 28:19, “Go...and teach all nations… 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you...” Christs’ command was to adhere to all that He had commanded them.

Jude felt it necessary to write to the Church in the 1^st Century and encourage them to earnestly contend for the faith. That faith is the Truth of God as spoken and exemplified in the life of Jesus Christ. Jude 1:4, “For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ...11 Woe unto them! for they have gone in the way of Cain, and ran greedily after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Core. 12 These are spots in your feasts of charity, when they feast with you, feeding themselves without fear: clouds they are without water, carried about of winds; trees whose fruit withereth, without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots; 13 Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame; wandering stars, to whom is reserved the blackness of darkness for ever.”

Cain, because of his rejection of God’s provision positioned himself against God’s will and leadership. Balaam was a hired prophet who used deceit to further his own personal agenda. Korah rebelled against the Godly authority. All these were an issue in the 1^st Century Church and Paul warned of the same conditions in the last days. 2Timothy 3:1, “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. 2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves… 4lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God; 5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof...7 Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 8 Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. 9 But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was.” Jude observed these conditions inside the Church and Paul prophesied that these conditions would manifest themselves inside the Church in the last days.

Somewhere along the path to finish the commission given to us, the Church began to depart from the faith which was once delivered to the saints. Every pastor, leader, and congregation has been pressed by the will of a worldly society to include all men in the Church regardless of their relationship with Jesus Christ. However, to be a follower of Christ, one must be a disciple of Christ. To be a disciple of Christ is to accept His Truth and reflect that Truth in one’s life as a reflection of Christ. Only then is one acceptable to Christ. That is what is meant by a person accepting Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Until such a time, one’s life is preserved solely by the mercy and grace of God. 

At this late hour, we must turn back to the purpose of God in the earth. Let the Church rise up in the Power of the Holy Ghost and declare that God’s Standard for every human life is the Word of God. Hebrews 2:12, “For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.” In the Holy Spirit, the Word of God is our Safety and the Righteous run to it. Let us return to the God of our Fathers! God will place us where we need to be when we need to be there if we will obey His Word! 

Let us purposefully and deliberately step through the Open Door that God has created for us in this hour. No man can shut the Door but we must choose to enter into the Will of God. Let us awake from the spirit of Slumber, heed the Voice of God and finish Our Mission as the Body of Christ! God will close His Door in His Time just as He closed the door on the Ark. Get in while you can!

An Open Window! by Myra Boozer

Many are talking about the reprieve that we in America have been given, a short window, the interval during which something can be done. No one knows how long this window will be open. It's not a pretty picture because evil raises its ugly head when the Word of God is spoken through the reading or quoting of the Bible or sung by an anointed ambassador of Jesus Christ.

When hearts are touched and tears are shed, when wrongs are made right and the paths are made straight the enemy gets MAD. He’s angry enough to destroy property and set fires, to curse and talk of bombings, to pull innocent people into their arena and plunder this country with filthy talk and posters. They are degrading this country by declaring the right to take innocent lives, to adamantly go against the Laws of God and push their agenda to be free to commit murder.

Some are saying it is time for actions from the Christians. Our actions must come from our Commander-n-Chief. His Word tells us that the Battle is the Lord's! We are only to be ready with our armor in place, ready to Stand and be the Standard that the Lord himself will raise up against this flood of the enemy.

We are to sanctify (set apart unto the Lord) ourselves by submitting ourselves to God so God can use us in this last day's Harvest of souls. We must be fueled by the fire of the Holy Spirit and armed with the Word of God, loving the sinner but hating the sin, becoming the Light on the hill for all to see Jesus in us. 

We know how this all ends! Good will win! Truth will prevail over evil! Justice will be served BUT those not repentant will be doomed. So, the battle cry is to stand in the power of HIS might and speak HIS Truth. Don't seek revenge because vengeance is mine saith the Lord. Souls are at stake and we must be wise during this hour to proclaim the word of God. According to the book of Acts, we need to give ourselves continually to prayer and to the ministry of the Word. As God shut the window in the Ark, He will shut this window and no man will be able to open it. Time to get READY while we have An Open Window!

I Have Set Before You An Open Door!

Revelation 3:8, “I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. 9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. 10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. 11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.”

God has set the stage for His final events. The Church in America bears the responsibility for the destiny of this nation. Will we continue our prayer meetings and seek God with our whole heart for Revival in America? Are we willing to sacrifice our time and energy to bring a Spiritual Awakening and a breaking forth of the Light of God? Are we willing to commit our all to the work of Christ that we can have Revival in our local churches and in our families?

Satan is angry because the Children of God would dare to rise up against him. He is releasing the powers of darkness in every venue in the public and private arena. But, Satan, the Blood of Jesus is against you! 1 John 4:1, “Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. 2 Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: 3 And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. 4 Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world. 5 They are of the world: therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them. 6 We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.”

The Body of Christ must rise up in the power and authority of Jesus Christ and proclaim victory in Jesus' Name. Jesus said, “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;” Isaiah 61:1. He gave the same power to the Church in Matthew 28:18, “And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 19Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 20Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” 

We are challenged to receive the power of the Lord Jesus Christ in the person of the Holy Ghost and to GO and bind up the brokenhearted, bring liberty to the captives, open the prisons to them that are bound. “Behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it...” Go and go in the power of Jesus' Name! Amen! (continued)

Come And Sit Among Us! by Myra Boozer

Lord, would You please come and sit among us?

We long for more of You and Your Righteousness.

Rain down upon us Your lovingkindness,

For we stand today at your mercy.

We need Your message of Truth and Grace.

Bring to us Your revelation of the New Day Dawning,

The Day of Your soon appearing, when You step out on the clouds to call us Home.

Open our eyes to a greater understanding of what it actually means to be Your People, a Chosen People, and a Royal Priesthood.

May we be ready when You shall descend from heaven with a shout, and with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God calling us to come up to where You are.

Lord our hearts are open to Your Spirit and we long to be in Your presence. Please come and sit among us, refresh us, revive us, renew us and restore us to our first love. You are coming for Your Bride, the one You Love and the one who loves YOU...Come And Sit Among Us!

Jesus Christ, Create You Good Work In Me!

Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You today in my human weakness aware that any good thing in me is what You have created. There is no substance, no state of mind, or conscience that transcends the work of the Holy Spirit in me. I thereby yield myself to the work of the Spirit. Take me, prepare me and use me. If there be any good thing in me, use it for Your honor and glory. Jesus Christ, be glorified in my life. 

I covenant with You to be what you desire me to be. I pray that my mind would be as the mind of Christ, that my mouth would speak the words of Christ, my hands would practice the deeds of Christ and that my feet would take me into the way of Christ. Your Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. May I ever walk in Your Word. Lord, have mercy upon me and my house. I am forever Yours. Be glorified in me! Jesus Christ, Create Your Good Work In Me!

Holy Father, Cover Me! by Myra Boozer

There is a covering sent down from the Father Above. It is the Presence of the Holy Spirit. He will hover over the Righteous and fill every void. He will filter out the world and the stench of sin and corruption. He will dispense the "sweet smell" of Holiness upon the people of God bringing love, joy, and peace upon the Believer.

He cannot be bought or purchased in any store. Nor can we wrap Him and give Him as a gift. He comes from the Father, the one who sets people free, free from sin and condemnation. He is the all-powerful work of God that Jesus promised to those who seek NOT the "Things" of this world but seek for the HEART of God and all that He has for us. 

His presence is priceless, far above rubies or treasures of this world, far above pleasures or longings of the flesh. He is not only a covering but an infilling of God's presence that will captivate you and your desires. What we need is to be covered in His Presence, the Greatest Gift we could ever receive. 2 Cor. 9:15, “Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.” Holy Father Cover Me!

Push Back Against The Darkness! Conclusion

Our struggles in the spirit realm have spilled over into our physical world and invariably affect our way of life. It is a serious matter to exclude God from our daily lives. That is exactly what has transpired in many nations including the United States. God has been legislated out of our schools, governments and public arenas. It is there that truth and justice should be promoted and encouraged. We have allowed our leaders to prohibit the mention of God in our public places and then wonder why our world is in such a mess. We have excluded God and He has left us to our own devices and the consequences of governing in the flesh.

Satan has silently done his work. We did not recognize the evil he intended and unwittingly became a partaker of his evil scheme. But we cannot go silently into the night. Even at this late hour, we must draw attention to the evil and avarice in this world! We must take a stand for truth and righteousness!

Matt. 5:14, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

What has happened to the light? Where are God’s Champions for Truth and Righteousness? Jude 1:3, “Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.” Instead of being separated from the world to be a light to the world, the world has been assimilated into the churches. When we rely more on the planning and production models that we have observed in the world than on the revelation and anointing of the Holy Spirit, how can we expect people to be enlightened and changed? Can we really expect lives to be convicted of sin and changed in repentance and regeneration without the leading and anointing of the Holy Spirit? 

Why do we fall back on the arm of the flesh? Because it is the easier route. With the abundance of resources, anyone can develop their own program or plan. However, for revelation and the anointing of the Holy Ghost we must go to God’s Word, take time to be alone with God and His Word. We must bury our faces into the carpet on the floor and cry out to God with everything that is within us, fervently seeking God to send His fire among us to address the needs of a lost and dying world. God alone has the solution. Jesus Christ is the answer! Push Back Against The Darkness!
