EARLY MORNING MANNA

Here is a wonderful directive from Jude, the brother of Jesus, about these days we are in….

“Beloved while I was making every effort to write to you about our common salvation, I felt the necessity to write to you appealing that you contend earnestly for the faith which was once delivered to the saints.” (Jude 1:3 NASB)

This is what I learned in my soaking and studies this morning for your encouragement…

1) Jude wrote this letter under the direction of the Spirit of God in haste as can been seen by the Greek aorist contrasted with the preceding present infinitive. Meaning that this new epistle had to be written at once and could not be prepared for at leisure!

2) The urging of Jude and his appeal to us was the same Greek word used of speeches of leaders and of soldiers who urge each other on. It is the word used of words which sent fearful and timorous soldiers and sailors courageously into battle.

3) The contending for The Faith was going to be an exercise of great effort and exertion for something. The word was used of athletic contests and the struggle and effort of the athletes in their games.

And in this very overlooked book in the New Testament look at the last two verses,

“Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Saviour, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be the glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. (Jude 1:24-25NASB)

As I was pondering these powerful and urgent truths, suddenly I began to see why a believer can stumble, backslide or fall way into the depravity of lawlessness from the glorious presence of God that is in extended revival meetings that dot the landscape in this hour! Look at this verse in Romans chapter one….

For even though the knew God, they did not honor Him as God, or give thanks; but they became futile in their speculations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools. (Romans 1:21-22 NASB)

Look at how simple (yet complex) it becomes when a person falls away first in their own heart…way before God gives them over to total depravity and degrading passions…as the rest of Romans chapter one shows us! How?

1) They quit honoring God.
2) They quit giving thanks.

When a person knows God then quits honoring God, such as quietly dismissing themselves from the fear and awe of who God is, and starts to have a non-chalant attitude and lack of divine protocol and respect toward the glorious presence of God…then that person will also stealthily stop being a worshipper of God! I see this all over the world in our travels and this is why OPERATION IMMINENT TRUMPET is so needed right now as a wake up call to the Church and rescue souls.

I witness this every Sunday in services I’m invited to speak in. I see many people who have had a born from above experience yet come into the presence of God so proudly like they are going to the beach for a barbecue! They have lost the reverence and awe they once had for the majesty of our King! Second, the next thing I notice is that these same individuals lack a passion during worship. They just sing along…but there is no emotional passionate fire exuding out of their faces because they only want to honor and be passionate about themselves! I have for years wondered how someone can say they are a Christian but never show passionate worship! They do not like to enter into windward and spontaneous worship for extended times because it interferes with their idol of time, schedules, and appointments (for which they are so passionate about keeping)!

The next mysterious thing that happens is they start to become speculators out of their carnal minds (which is now becomes their sole navigation buoy in their foolish trek on this planet) and then their hearts become darkened!

Dear friends, we are in a critical time and must sound the trumpet louder than ever before about the 2nd coming of our Lord and wake up those who do slide unknowingly at first from the honoring and giving the true worship unto our King. All of us are called to be shepherds and make disciplined pursuers of Jesus of those He sends into our lives!

He only wants spiritual (windward) worshippers who love honesty (John 4) in this hour and I believe all of us need to be on the look out for those we know who are exhibiting the beginning signs of this mystery of lawlessness and darkened hearts as is listed above! Let’s help one another to be honest and windward worshippers in the Spirit! He is only approving and building a Spiritual house (1 Peter 2:5)!!! All other houses will not pass inspection of the city code of Heaven!!! But rather will be condemned (I Cor. 3:9-15)!!!!

In conclusion this morning, we have received so much positive feedback from people all over North America, Europe, and Israel about how these Early Morning Manna emails we send out to you has been a confirming source of strength during your walk of faith on this planet. The whole purpose of these emails is to help you become that special priesthood of people who know the windward ways of God and bring Him the ultimate pleasing sacrifice to His nostrils!!! With that being said, the Apostle Paul admonishes the church at Corinth, “If we sowed spiritual things (Pneumatikos) in you, is it too much if we reap material things from you?”

And guess what the number sequence of that verse is… I Cor.9:11! Wow!

Your break thru is directly related to yielding to His Spirit wind within! It is 911 in the Spirit dear friends and thank you in advance for sowing material things into this ministry and phase two of the counter-terrorism mission known as OPERATION IMMINENT TRUMPET goes operational!

If you are being quickened by the Spirit of God inside…like something is gently coming alive in you…then respond quickly to our need of 300 Gideon warriors (each sowing $1K or more) to help us take OPERATION IMMINENT TRUMPET into phase 2.

Keep contending for the faith and be encouraged dear friends…this is the hour for you awesome break through that will bring so much glory to our King! And that is the bottom-line!!!!

In His War Footing,

Scott and Dalit
