Walking with Jesus

We've been in a season of focused prayer for three weeks and each time we meet it's more explosive than the last time. I want to share some of today's encounter, but first: a reminder.
We are 1123 Ministries, based on Mark 11:23. In 2015, I got hooked on Prophet Kenneth E. Hagin and listened to him teach on Mark 11:22-25 repeatedly until my faith was ignited. In Mark 11:23 Jesus said,
"I tell you the truth, you can say to this mountain, ‘May you be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and it will happen. But you must really believe it will happen and have no doubt in your heart."
That's how we live our lives and how we teach, preach and spread The Gospel. We don't encourage you to climb mountains, discuss mountains or run in fear from mountains. We teach, preach and instruct you to speak to mountains over and over with Believers' Authority until your faith matches the Frequency of Heaven and you get manifestation.
In 1123 Ministries, we live spirit first as mature Kingdom Citizens, and not from the soul or flesh. We don't operate based on feelings. Feelings have nothing to do with faith and we are a FAITH MINISTRY and a KINGDOM MINISTRY.
I say at the end of every teaching or video, "Remember, loved ones, you have what you say so call it how you want it." Your words frame your world and locate you to others. Your life is the harvest of what you've spoken in the past. When we minister to others, the first thing we address is your words because you will have what you say. If your life is a mess, I know you've been speaking wrong words. Nothing will change for you until your words change.
We get it done because The WORD works and we work it. If you know someone whose life is in turmoil and they're desperate enough to follow instructions all the way to victory, invite them to try us. They might like us.
Today I saw a version of Jesus I don't see often. It was the version of Him that laid into the Pharisees and called them no-good snakes. I was worshipping, very briefly. May not have even been a full minute before I was pulled up to His Realm. He spoke in reference to the education system. I won't share the whole prophecy here, but this is an important statement that needs to be shared publicly, so that if you're in Christian education, you can make the proper adjustments.
And, let me say, this wasn't The Spirit of Prophecy, where a Heavenly being speaks while Yeshua sits on His Throne. This was Jesus Himself speaking. He said,
"No longer will I have Christian education that mimics the world but speaks My Name. I will no longer stand for educating My children into the ground."
So, you know how we have RINOs in politics, He's making it known, He's not tolerating Christians in name only schools.
Then, a little later in prayer He said to the following:
"There are pots of people:
- Some only want the prophetic words about what GOD will do.
- Others will hear the prophecy and put in the plow - Ezras.
- Some will hear The WORD and intercede, seek My Face - like Daniel.
- Few will take to the battlefield like David.
- Most wait and time passes."
Which pot are you in? The LORD knows so be honest with yourself. If you're in pot one or five, I'd recommend you spend more time with The Godhead and allow Them to mature you.
Then, I went back into worship. Jesus was with me the whole hour of prayer today; no angels, not Abba, just Jesus. After a short time, He took my hand. At that moment I was a child looking up at Him and being led. I told Him my life has changed, my prayer has changed since adding focused worship throughout my day. His Presence is magnified and it's even easier to hear and encounter Him than before.
He turned, looking down at me and said, "Draw near to Me, I draw near to you."
And, that was how Holy Ghost Prayer Session #9 ended. Walking with Jesus.
I bless you in Yeshua's Name!
