From the Desk of Doctor Paul ...



Faith's Counterfeit!


"From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live. God did this so that man would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from each one of us. 'For in him we live and move and have our being.' As some of your own poets have said, 'We are his offspring.'" Acts 17:26-28

"There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love." 1 John 4:18

"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (fear), but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline." 2 Timothy 1:7

The Spirit of God spoke ever so clearly to me, a short time ago. "Paul, how much of your life, in thought and deed, is controlled by fear?" That challenging question seemed so benign, but as it was contemplated, a realization dawned upon me. Most of my walk has been impacted by faith's counterfeit...fear. From occasional concerns to issues of blatant obsession and rumination, men, women and children are held back from the fulness of what Jesus purchased for us through His obedience and the shedding of perfect, sinless Blood. Each letter of that word...FEAR, truly represents an abundance of insightful revelation...False Evidence Appearing Real!

How liberating it is to be fully transparent when discussing this topic, recognizing, of course, that we're in good company. Most of humanity operates under the influence of fear. A prideful person is a fearful one. Obsessions, doubts, worries and intimidation are also facets of this deadly entity.

To the extent that one is not walking in faith, that individual is, indeed, controlled by fear. Like oil and vinegar, the two can never mix. Mid-ground and gray areas don't exist when dealing with faith's opposite. Since faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God, such is the case with its (faith's) bipolar counterpart. Listening to fear's voice promotes a lying vision of despondency and despair.

Entertaining high thoughts and vain imaginations fuels fear's fire. Fear is really perverted faith in Satan's ability to bring his lies to pass, where faith is confidence in the Father's desire to manifest His Word. Let's put a smile on Papa's face by doubting doubts and believing beliefs.

How does a specific fear usually surface? Almost invariably, a word or vision is introduced by the author of lies. Satan's priority is to deceive the Brethren. Everything usually begins with a thought. From that point, the recipient makes a decision concerning the projection. "Do I believe that, or not?" Often, the suggestion contains an element of truth. Yet it creates confusion and inner-conflict within the hearer. At that juncture, we must not lean unto natural understanding, but instead, permit the Holy Spirit to perform His job of bearing witness, one way or the other, relative to that which has been presented. He will unveil a Scripture from the Word to contradict the thought and bring comfort. If a refusal is made to involve Him, we usually take fear to its next level...confession, followed by possession! Because of the Believer's authority, along with the power of life and death residing in the tongue, a speaking forth of negativity...that fear, licenses the adversary to manifest his plan. Overcoming victory arrives by way of the Lamb's Blood and the voice of our testimony, standing in agreement with God over His Word!

Some might declare, "There are times when I just don't know, am not sure. Was that really the Lord's Voice?"

We need not flip a coin, since the Revelator is fully committed to promote guidance and success in all pertaining to life and godliness. Wisdom and knowledge are liberally flowing from the Throne Room. The Lord will never give His Kids a stone for a loaf of bread. If you feel stuck, simply expose that thought to the Peace Meter. Head in the direction of tranquility. Should the Bride turn to the left or right, She'll hear a Voice behind Her, saying, "This is the way. Walk ye in it." You and I are Children of Light, Life and Love.

Fear is actually foreign to us. That's why it doesn't feel right. Having been created in the likeness and image of Dad, we're designed to conduit God's very nature in every department. He thinks, talks and acts big, has no problems, only solutions, and so should the Church. As He is, the Body of Christ has become in this world.

What delivers peace to your heart? Meditating on the Word, talking about those precious interactions with God in that Secret Place, acting upon Heavenly commands, walking in love, and yielding to Divine nudgings and promptings facilitate a knowing that He's with us, a firm conviction that we're in the center of His perfect will... a locale of victory and "always having."

Feelings are the language of the body. The soul functions through emotions, and the Spirit's voice is man's conscience. Christians must become adept at recognizing which is attempting to influence their thought processes and actions. Once again, God has implanted, on the inside of each Child, Radar, a Peace Meter...the Holy Spirit, through Whom we are to live, move and have our being. The Christian need not miss the mark on a single score.

Contemplate this! Fear produces a myriad of pychopathological disorders. It can emotionally and physically paralyze recipients. I see fright as a negative smoke screen, intent upon keeping us from the "real thing," a setting-free understanding of who we are in Christ and what the believer actually has. Many people take medications in an attempt to counteract what fear has done to their minds. Bring the oppressed into the Presence of God, and Heavenly Medicine, the Spirit of the Most High, will wash over them, erasing all that Satan has done. That Prescription must be taken liberally, on a daily basis.

Your anointing and strengths lie in previous and current realms of attack. The soul's bully hopes to convince us of weakness, particularly where the Holy Spirit has unctioned the Soldier. Former enemies are to be seen no more. Replacing them will be an ability to deliver others who have been attacked in similar ways. So, if you've been struggling with physical symptoms, anticipate a special call to heal the sick. Has poverty invaded your life? Well, prepare for wealth.

Why would we need abundance and full sufficiency? The answer to that question is obvious...to establish the Covenant and bless humanity. To whom much has been given, more will be required. The Most High is instructing those under attack to confess a gifting, a vital reversal of Hell's curse, a manifestation of Calvary's great exchange...righteousness (His) for sin, strength and Power for weakness, prosperity for lack, Life for death, as well as healing and health for sickness!

The Revelator has more to convey in the empowerment of the Family!

The Fleeing!

"Beloved, precisely as sin, sickness, poverty, death, fear and failure are alien to Christ and His Body, so are faith, prosperity, wellness, power and success an enemy to Satan...the master of illusion. In this hour, I would strongly suggest that you begin believing your beliefs and doubting those doubts. Let peace guide every move, while utilizing Heaven's Plumbline...the Word, to keep you vertically oriented. During these awesome days of the Spirit, walking by faith is absolutely imperative. Why are men's hearts failing them? Glory is fast-approaching, and with that comes an abundance of truth...unveilings that will bestow identity, direction and destiny within the Children. A smoke grenade...fear, has been released from Hell's arsenal. That's all it is, a counterfeit of the authentic Cloud, soon to cover this planet with a knowledge of My manifest Presence. Within that unleashing is an abundance of Life, fullness of joy, a confusion-obliterating Force that will provide crystal clear direction and certain deliverance. The party spoiler (Satan) is doing all in his powerless power to convince the Bride that She is not loved, provided for, kept and protected. Some have bought into this lie. Regardless, where sin abounds, grace much more outdoes the works of darkness. Count on this fact! Sin will not be able to keep up with Us as the Dust (Glory) rises from the richness and proliferation of those greater works. Satan's back side is about to been viewed...fleeing his enemy...the Church! What will that look like through the eyes of this world? Well, a physical, visible reversal of the curse best describes the process. That which has attacked the Family will chase him down, as Covenant comes alive through Yielded...Living Epistles, known and read of all men. Sickness, poverty and death are to leave their victims and chase the author of lies and negativity down that highway leading to the Lake of Fire. Set your attention and affection on what's descending from above...goodness and mercy, gifts, signs and wonders, the unprecedented, unparalleled and unpredictable. Guess what? The best is yet to surface. We win!"
