Scripture: Matthew 8 v 24 - 27: "And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.
25 And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.
26 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.
27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!"
One of the hottest topics in the world today revolves around the environment and climate change. From record-breaking heatwaves to the recent calving in Antarctica of an iceberg the size of London plus the
winds of change the pandemic caused to nations throughout the world, this is the right time to find out if we can control our environment.
Do we know what is causing the globe to get hotter? The return of Jesus to this planet, that's what! He said in Matthew 24, Mark 13 and Luke 21 that weather would be out of control before He returns.
Plus in Psalm 19 v 4 - 6: "Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof."
The Bridegroom is coming! His Bride is feeling the heat too....enemy missiles from enemies being stopped by the miraculous Iron Dome, Anti-Semitism rising all over the world, while Israel bravely fights. This war has been continuous since Palestine was given to Israel in 1948 to the horrors of October 7 2023. And the hostages. Definite non stop heat!
We have two assignments as Christians. Go tell everyone the truth that Jesus our Saviour is alive in our hearts to bring all those who desire eternal life to Heaven. Next "Occupy till I come!" Words of Jesus. We are to take authority over this planet spiritually, not through all Christians being in government, but through our total submission to Jesus and overcoming Satan and is demons.
Jesus told His disciples to render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's, and to God that which is God's. He made a clear distinction between serving the world and serving the Kingdom of God. Politics is an increasingly dirty game, and no amount of Christian input will make it righteous. It involves mudslinging from all sides, slander, accusations and whose names are on Epstein's List.
We must overcome evil God's way! Through the word of our testimony, the Blood of Jesus and not being afraid to die for it. The devil knows this only too well so he found a lie that was useful to stop this overcoming in its tracks. The lie is.......he doesn't exist.
He and his demons are myths like a comic book character. Behind those shadows they manipulate sinners with or without permission. This planet is in the mess that's its in now because the church has failed to overcome this lie. It's a hush hush subject, best left alone. Far too dangerous. When good people say nothing, evil flourishes.
Matthew 28 v 18 : "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth."
Jesus said ALL power is given to Him in Heaven and on Earth. We are in Him and He is in us therefore we have His power and authority over the elements, over wind and waves, over fish in the sea, over demons and even over insects. We can occupy till He comes, and clear our patch of alien demonic entities. We can control whether we get sick or stay well, whether we have abundance or poverty. Christ in us the hope of glory.
When a storm came and the waves were raging, a gale blowing the sails of their fishing boat, the disciples of Jesus were terrified. Jesus was asleep in the boat completely unconcerned. He rebuked the waves and calmed the storm. The wind died down and the amazed crew said amongst themselves, Who is this man that even the wind and waves do obey Him?
We need to follow Jesus in being completely unconcerned when imminent disaster looms. We are no longer "only human" because when we are born again and filled with the Holy Spirit, Satan does not know if we are actually Jesus or not. The same, light, power, anointing and authority He has shines through us. We are the New Creation of whom Jesus was the first.
The light in us causes Satan to panic and devise strategies to dim it. Or he wants to isolate us and mute our voices. Or kill us, injure us or bring illness upon us. He definitely does not want us finding out about our authority over him.
It's not by might, its not by power, its by My Spirit says the Lord. We have it but do not use what He has given us to fight spiritual battles to clear our homes of demonic influence through books, music, porn on our phones, statues, African heads, drums, masks. All these things are magnets for you to have a crowded house, demons enticing teens into drugs and sex. Causing abuse of alcohol, bad language, gender based violence. Transgender confusion, abortions, counteracting teachers at schools usurping your authority over your children.
Government councils spend billions on trying to deal with these burgeoning problems, when Jesus already gave us all the answers. The disciples 2000 years ago were amazed that the demons were subject to them. I was amazed too when I was thrown into the spiritual deep end and had no option but to take authority in Jesus' name!
There is power in His name to heal us and deliver us from demons. And to use to control our environment as a "no fly zone" for evil spirits. Put the Blood of Jesus across your doorway and trust Jesus to control who enters. A family member who thought he had a bone to pick with me was met by a dog that barked at him incessantly (never did before) until the man fled shouting obscenities.
Jesus cursed the fig tree and within 24 hours it was dead. The Romans demanded taxes, Jesus told Matthew to cast a hook into the sea and a fish would deliver a coin into his hand to pay tax for them both. The last words in the gospel of John were that if everything Jesus did was written down it would fill all the books ever written.
Matthew 17 v 27: "Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee."
We have the gifts of the Holy Spirit that enable us to do miracles, heal the sick, control the environment, raise the dead, break Satan's power over storms and tornadoes, taking authority over demons and living the abundant life. It does not happen automatically, you have to pray for the blessing and do what needs to be done. That's how you build an arsenal of testimonies to use against Satan and his demons.
John 14 v 12: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father."
Whenever Jesus says "verily, verily" it means please pay extra special attention to this!
The world is in a heap of trouble trying to reduce carbon emissions to try tame the genie that escaped out of the bottle and caused irreversible global warming. We have until 2050 to get it back in the bottle. We must have a new plan by then, the NEW brains on the block must solve the damage the previous generation caused. What a legacy. The first item on the agenda must be to close down the WEF, World Economic Forum.
We did not elect them to run all the governments in the world by following their agenda. They make decisions we cannot agree with like let's release the Covid 19 virus and see how much we can control the population of this planet. Let's control world finances and cause a panic so we can bring in our funny money, CHEFs! Central Bank Digital Currency. It's like monopoly money on a board game. It is controlled by them.
Nigeria saw this coming a few years back and there was such an outrage, a run on every bank, physical attacks on bank buildings with trucks smashing down walls. They had to withdraw the CBCD tokens they were replacing fiat money with. This nation stood up against it. These tokens are coming worldwide. Do you have a strategy against it?
If we suggest that Jesus can fix it - it can only happen if we turn our hearts towards Him and repent of our sins. He will heal our land. If every land did this, He would heal the whole world. However the scoffers and mockers have taken charge and they know better.
When Jesus went home to Nazareth He could do no miracles because of unbelief. He healed a few sick people but the ingredient needed to make wonders happen was missing. And in today's world it is missing too. So many churches are running on lukewarm, many are running on empty fumes and many have had their candlestick removed.
So Jesus has turned a tragedy last week into an immediate emergency rallying call. It has shown the British government who pays them and whose servants they are. Westminster is in chaos right now and President Trump arrived last night on a State Visit. Like fuel to an already blazing fire. The next few days will be newsworthy.
The only way we can win this economic, health, and environmental tragedy is by total belief in Jesus. We must be using the authority He has given us to fight against Satan who is trying to tear this planet apart before his time is up. It is always the power struggle between good and evil, Jesus Christ or the Antichrist, right and wrong, truth and error.
The megalomaniac Antichrist who is close to come, is still convinced he is winning but the back pages of the Bible say otherwise. He knows what it says but still believes he holds enough souls as leverage to sway the odds in his favour. Our job is to occupy till Jesus returns. Occupy the spiritual position of No weapon formed against us shall prosper, and we will overcome him.
If we mean business with God, we can ask what we will and it will be done. Psalm 37 v 3 - 5: "Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.
4 Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
5 Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass."
Delight yourself in the Lord and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Nothing delights Him more than Faith on a grand scale. Jesus often murmured at His disciples, O Ye of little faith! We must believe for bigger things, and when they happen rejoice and share and inspire everyone to pray without ceasing.
We are seeing great revivals starting, great movement in the Body of Christ but they need to be informed of their power and authority. We can stop Satan in his tracks if we put up our hand and say, Satan in the name of Jesus I command you to stop :-
1. Sending illegal migrants to infiltrate our nation
2. The grooming gangs sexually destroying our children
3. The destruction of our economy
4. The loss of employment
5. The corruption of our government
6. The pollution of our environment
7. Sending pandemics and killer vaccines
8. Sending insects to annoy us, sting or kill.
9.
10.
Add your own. Pray in groups, churches or homes and start controlling the environment around you until mosquitoes have to beg permission to annoy you. Let us show Jesus that we mean business on this planet and yes He will find faith when He returns and so much more. We will occupy till You come Lord Jesus.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Jesus wondered if He would find faith on Earth when He returned. Lord even if its only me, I have faith for many. I have unshakeable, unbreakable faith because I have seen You do the utterly impossible many times. I love You, Lord, and pray for those who know You to trust You more, have greater faith, stronger belief, to triumph over our environment and every other thing until the end comes. In Jesus' name. Amen.
