By Tim Taylor, May 24, 2020 - Tomorrow, in America, we celebrate Memorial Day.  It is a day we remember those who gave their lives for our freedom.  To learn more visit History.com's Memorial Day.  Its origin dates all the way back to the Civil War.  According to PBS over 303,000 were buried in national cemeteries.  One the major reasons for this war was to "set the captives free."  

As I contemplated this morning the Lord spoke to me about our, the Christian's, Memorial Day.  Did you know that heaven watches for your Memorial Day?  I'll explain but first let's celebrate this Memorial Day by remembering. 

1 Peter 2:17 says, "Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king."  It is right that we remember the sacrifices of those who defend our freedom.  I saw a meme a few years ago that said this.  "Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you.  Jesus Christ and the American fighting soldier.  One died for your soul and the other died for your freedom."  

So, to all of our veterans who've lost members of their unit who were like family, and to the families of all those who've lost loved ones we thank you for your sacrifice.  Many of us in this nation are still truly very grateful.  It is my sincerest prayer and hope that the generation that follows will correct the mis-steps of our nation in recent decades and once again return this nation to God so that it fulfills its role and uses its freedom and liberty to serve as a beacon of hope and that the Church in this nation would use their liberty to proclaim the gospel of the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

Heaven Watches for Your Memorial Day

About a month prior to the Ambush Dream I arose early to pray and had a vision about our moral compass.  The primary purpose of the vision was to give revelatory wisdom regarding the “lay of the land” as well as to expose two of Satan’s key strategies in this culture war.

I published an article through our blog on January 11, 2019 titled “The Sign the Scientists Just Discovered at the North Pole that Points to our Moral Compass.”  Here’s an excerpt from that article.

In early January God began speaking to me about our moral compass again.  On January 7, 2019 I published "It's Time to Recalibrate Our Moral Compass!"  On January 10th, three days later, Fox News reported  "Something very strange is happening to Earth's magnetic North Pole and no one knows why. "  It says (note I added bold large print to make a point):

“The magnetic pole is moving so quickly that it has forced the world’s geomagnetism experts into a rare move,” Nature reports.

On January 30 (delayed due to the US Government shutdown), the World Magnetic Model — which governs modern navigation systems — is due to undergo an urgent update.

This model is a vital component of systems ranging from geopositioning systems used to navigate ships through to smartphone trackers and maps.

The current model was expected to be valid until 2020. But the magnetic pole began to shift so quickly, it was realized in 2018 that the model had to be fixed — now."

The scripture reveals what God uses signs and wonder for.  Jeremiah 32:21 indicates that God brought His people out of the land of Egypt by signs and wonders while Daniel 6:27 says, "He delivers and rescues, and He works signs and wonders In heaven and on earth..."  In Isaiah 44:25-26 God says "Who frustrates the signs of babblers, and drives diviners mad: who turns wise men backwards and makes their knowledge foolishness.  Who confirms the word of His servant, and performs the counsel of His messenger..." Signs and wonders are used to:

• Show God's people a way out of bondage
• Deliver His people
• Confirm the word of His servants or messengers
• This Sign Should Make You Wonder

What should it make you wonder?

By Tim Taylor 2/9/2020 - I meet regularly with legislators, citizens and ministers who serve in our state's capitol. Recently some shared their eye witness reports of occutic activity being practiced in the halls of the capitol and noted the intersection between some legislation and sex trafficking. 

There was an emphasis on sex traffickers engaging the occult. Why?  It's because they want to hide their evil activities.  Think about it.  They seek to use the unbridled lust of some people and their power to exploit the young, the weak and the vulnerable so as to enslave a generation for profit.  It's about power and control motivated by selfish greed. 

This is an example of a spiritual war being waged in the family, government, healthcare, education, media and business mountains.  This spiritual war is also a cultural war.  

I'm happy to report that law makers have recognized this activity at its roots is a spiritual war.  If you want a modern example where the occult interacts with government then I'd just point you to this January 7, 2020 invitation to join "Witches Against Trump: Details on our 2020 Spell Casting Social Mixer."   I've witnessed meetings like this since 2017. Have you ever seen witches covens around the world band together in order to curse a president quarterly with a death curse?   Neither have I.  

Spiritual War in the Seven Mountains of Society
This should not come as a surprise as we see in Acts 13:8 that Elymas was a sorcerer who sought to influence a government official and to stop the gospel of the kingdom from being introduced to a whole region.  This illustrates a spiritual war that is being played out in both the "Religious" and the "Government" mountains of spheres of a society.  

It's not a new battle.  It's been going on since Revelation 12 where the angels of God expelled Satan and his fallen angels from heaven to earth.  These demonic forces have joined Satan to go and make war with the people on the earth who obey God's commands and the teachings of Jesus Christ.

At the core it is a war over truth.  The war occurs when lies are introduced contrary to the truth (Click for We've Entered the Valley of Decision).  The issue at hand are the souls of men and women and their eternal destiny in heaven or in hell.  This is serious.  Very serious don't you think? 

One of the reasons that evil people with evil agendas seek to use the occult is because they want to hide their activities in the dark.  They want to keep their secret agenda and tactics hidden.  If these are exposed they resort to using slander, lies, deceit ect... to keep their true goals hidden and the issues confused.  Satan loves confusion and confusion is one of the fruits of demonic activity.  This impacts all seven mountains of society.  For example:

by Tim Taylor, February 7, 2020.  The prophet Joel warns that the "day of the Lord" is coming.  He says it is a day of darkness and gloominess.  He says it is a terrible day.  Yet in the midst of this dark time there is a people who come forth like of whom the world has never seen.  It is the army of the Lord.  These are the ones who heed the voice of the Lord.  In Joel 3:12 and 14 the prophet says that God is bringing  everyone to a valley.  It's a valley of judgment and it is also called the valley of decision. 

Situations are occuring every day which brings each one of us to a place where we have to decide what to do. A decision is a judgment.  The question is, whose judgment does this scripture refer to; God's judgment or mans?  I submit to you, the answer is both.  Bear with me and hear me out.  

The Culture War Occurs in the Valley of Decision
A valley is a low point between the mountains.  Today, we've had issue after issue arise.  One one side is the counter culture to God's word and on the other side are those who contend for the truth.  They meet together in the valley of decision.  Some might even call it the valley of contention where opposing thoughts collide. 

The size of the mountain is based upon the number of people as well as their thoughts about an issue.  The more elaborate the deception, the more people who buy into a decieved way of thinking the bigger the mountain.  On the other hand, the more people that understand and practice the truth the bigger the mountain of truth. 

Paul the apostle reveals that a stronghold refers to our way of thinking often revealed through our arguments. He says in 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 "For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,..."  

There are situations today for which each of us must decide where we stand.  It's common for most of us to respond as Joshua did in Joshua 5:13 where he says, "Are you for us, or are you for our adversaries?"  Are you on my side or their side?  The response of the one Joshua asked reveals an essential truth.  In verse 14, "So he said, "No, but as the Commander of the army of the Lord I have come."  This is revealing. 

The issue is not, is God on your side? But rather, no matter what the issue, the real question is, are we on His side.  Does our opinion align with His?  

The valley is the low point between two conflicting mountains of opinon. It's where the culture war occurs. The question the wise person asks is, "where does the Lord stand on this issue?  What does He think? "
 
Valleys Exist Where Two Conflicting Opinions Meet

By Tim Taylor:  In the last few days the coronavirus outbreak has made international headlines.  This morning I saw a prophetic word from Charlie Shamp delivered May 29, 2018.  Charlie is one of a number of prophets we've learned to watch and I'd like to say we saw this word in 2018 but we did not.  

I'd like to use this situation to illustrate what how we use prophetic words to empower the Church to pray through 1Church1Day (get your app through Itunes or Google Play).  I'll share the lessons first and then at the end I'll share Charlie's complete prophetic word.

First, prophets are a gift from God (Ephesians 4:11).  The scripture also reveals that, Amos 3:7, 
"Surely the Lord God does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets."  Ezekiel 3 and 33 reveals that the watchman is likened unto the prophet and the watchman's job is to give the people they watch over warning.  2 Chronicles 20:20 also reveals that "...Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.”  

Second, God speaks to other ministers and people as well but 1 Corinthians 13:9  teaches us that know one knows everything.   That is why we know in part and prophesy in part.  God made us to need each other.  That is why in the 1Church1Day app we provide a way for every person to report what they see and hear.  Secondly, we've formed councils and one of those councils is a prophet's council.  This includes prophetic intercessors and prophets who give words, watch other prophets like Charlie, and report what they see and hear.  

Third, we do 1 Corinthians 14:29 which says, let the prophets speak two or three and let the others judge. That's what we do with our councils.  We determine:

1. Is this the word of the Lord?  Yes or no?  
2. Does the character of the prophet line up with God's word?  Yes or no?
3. If it is the word of the Lord does it have a personal application, or is the word limited to a family, a people, a local church, a city, region, state or nation or beyond?  
4. Does time play a factor in the word and if so how? 
5. How should we respond to God's word?  
   1. Psalm 68:11 teaches us that when God gives us a word, He wants His people to proclaim it.  It is how His will is enforced on earth as it is in heaven.  So we determine what to proclaim.
   2. Is any other action required to respond to God's word besides prayer?  If so, what?  

What Did God Warn Us Of? 
I've observed Charlie for years and found many of his prophetic words have proven accurate.  This is just one more example and it contains some instruction from our Lord. 

Satan is clever!  He understands spiritual laws and their impact on the natural well and this is why he has focused so much effort on influencing politics in every nation.  In this case, I will use the United States as an example.  The goal is to expose Satan's clever traps and equip the believer with two keys to equip them to determine if a false prophet and or a doctrine of a demon is in play.

Jesus warned us in Matthew 24:24 that false christs and false prophets would rise in the last days to "deceive."  He ends it with "if possible, even the very elect."  His statement indicates that their speech, their arguments, their doctrine will be clever.  Convincing even! Especially to those who do not know truth.  

Paul, an apostle,  warned Timothy about the "falling away", Satan's modus operandi and the character of Satan's messengers.  In 1 Timothy 4:1-2 he says that some would fall for "deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons" who would be "speaking lies in hypocrisy."   

So what's the problem?  It's discernment. Why?  First, some ministers in the Church only focus on applying these admonitions in the "religious sphere."  In other words, only within the four walls of the Church on Sunday and Wednesday.  It's not applied to the life of every Christian who interacts with every sphere on a daily basis.   Ephesians 4:12 tells us that the role of the 5-fold ministry is to "equip the saints for the work of the ministry."  In other words every believer ought to be equipped as a minister.  So the first problem is not equipping every believer to act as a minister with discernment.  

The second problem is fear and ignorance. For example, some today espouse a "separation of church and state."  Some ministers today choose to avoid politics because of the conflict that is inherently involved.  Their motive, keep peace at all costs in their local church so people won't leave.  Why?  Because people translate to money; offerings! 

Separation of Church and State - NOT! 
This position is further bolstered by ignorance of the origin of the phrase "separation of church and state."  It's not a phrase from the Bible but rather from a letter penned by Thomas Jefferson who answered the Danbury Baptist's letter which expressed their concern that government would overstep their bounds to effect the church negatively.  It was in this context that Jefferson wrote in a letter (ie. not in a bill, law, etc.) about the "separation of church and state."  His view was based upon their knowledge of the history of the King of England starting with Henry the VIII who departed the Catholic Church because they would not annul his marriage to Catherine in 1530.  This led to a series of events which eventually positioned civil leader, the king, to also serve as the head of the Anglican Church.  Bottom line, the king ended up acting more like the corrupt kings we see in Israel (1st & 2nd Kings) who "made Israel sin" than the righteous kings like David who sought to love and honor our Lord which was reflected in his willingness to allow God's prophets and priests to confront and address his moral failures especially when it impacted the nation. 

These ministers are often ignorant, or have not focused on what God's word reveals about eternal spiritual laws that exist and how certain acts by a people can activate a spiritual law that brings blessing or enact a law that causes the land to expel it's inhabitants through wars, pestilence, and or "natural disasters." (ie. Deuteronomy 28, Leviticus 18, 20 and 26).  In other words, they do not understand how important righteous laws are.  Righteous laws are based upon truth.  

Satan has sent his false prophets which are influenced by deceiving spirits to teach their doctrines.  These are doctrines of demons.  I'll use Saul Alynski whose book, "Rules for Radicals" has been adopted as the playbook for the Democrat Party as an example.  You'll note in the article shared at the top of this article it describes the 8 strategies to create a socialist state.  These thoughts are being used today to impact America, don't you think?  Let me share with you the root system of his doctrine. 

The Two Keys to Discerning False Prophets & Doctrines of Demons

Join us January 17-18 in Elma Washington for a historic moment.  It's based upon the revelation in Lamentations 5:14-18 which reveals when Zion was desolate the elders stopped gathering in the gates.  

Last year leaders in our state adopted the 1Church1Day model to mobilize prayer even as I met with state leaders in Olympia at the beginning of our last legislative session.  These leaders asked for "the Church" to pray.

As of today we have 25 days each month in Washington State covered with 24/7 prayer.  The houses of prayer associated with the Northwest Prayer Gathering who is hosting this "Winter Burn" has played a big role along with other churches and ministries in building this canopy of continual prayer just like King David did on Mount Zion. 
​
Since continual prayer is being established over our state, so ought the elders to be sat back in the gates. Our goal, 24/7/365 prayer with the elders (leaders with actual jurisdiction) established back in the gates so they can consult with one another and to seek God for the wisdom needed to address the challenges of this day.  

So we are connecting civil leaders, with God's prophets, God's people and God's presence.  We'd love to see you join us to pray and lend your voice to the decree and our efforts to obey Isaiah 9:6-7. 

Join us Friday night January 17th to discover: 

• How there is a remnant arising and a people that's been pioneering the house of prayer in our state.
• The godly leaders we are going to pray for and send them in 2020 into all 7 spheres of society.
• How this strategy used by the Church in India and Myanmar recently made history as the Christian population doubled and Christians now occupy the highest political positions they've ever held in each respective nation.
• How leaders in our state, business, government, media, education, healthcare, the family and the Church are helping develop decrees which the Church can then proclaim.
• How we are leveraging the exponential power of agreement and how you can be involved in exponentially increasing that power. 
• How the house of God is actually the gate of heaven and much more.  

When, where and what else?  

America is on the precipice of a Constitutional crisis as evidenced by the Democrat Party's obsession with trying to manufacture evidence to impeach President Trump.  The Russian collusion narrative failed.  The Mueller investigation failed.  Now the Ukrainian narrative is failing though the left obsessed main stream media  along with the Democratic socialists and some RINO's cry "impeach impeach!"

My intention is not to delve into the hypocritical lying double standard but rather to use this current situation as a teaching moment.  A discipleship moment if you will.  

Believe God's Prophets
2 Chronicles 20:20 says ".....Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper.”

Kim Clement prophesied about this president several times.  The Youtube video associated with our Facebook post is a compilation of several words from 2007 to 2014.  You can see from the title what's addressed therein.  

God told us about what was to come.  So, if we acknowledge that God gives His word through His prophets, the question is, what are we supposed to do with it?  

I submit the following:  

ABC news was covering a story in which an off duty police officer entered the wrong apartment and then shot someone she thought was intruding in her apartment.  

It's a terrible situation and the jury just sentenced her.  The victims brother is clearly one whose life has been transformed by God's word.  

His response to the woman who killed his brother provides an excellent example of the power of forgiveness.  Here are some lessons learned that demonstrate the wisdom of forgiveness. 

Here's what I shared on our Facebook/KingdomLeague page.  

He says "the best thing you can do, is to give your life to Christ."

This is a beautiful example of forgiveness.  It's wise to! 

Why?

• Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God,
• Matthew 6:14-15 “For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

​
If you do not forgive, you set yourself up for a root of bitterness.

• Hebrews 12:15 looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled;

I was ecstatic as I read the ChristianPost's report The good (Christian) news you didn’t hear from India yesterday. It began with the bad news which underscored the fact that India has become the 10th worst country for Christian persecution. The good news came out of Andrah Pradesh! It provides proof that 1Church1Day (One Church One Day) puts history in the hands of a connected praying church (many local congregations praying together).

In 2009 a young pastor found our website and connected with us. I began mentoring him and teaching him about how then Operation Rolling Thunder which became 1Church1Day in 2014 worked. He began to mobilize congregations with one church taking one day to pray 24/7. The last time we visited him in 2017 many of the pastors from the churches brought their watch list showing me the watches their people covered in their day of 24/7 prayer. Now, back to the article. Check this out!

Excerpt with underlines I added from The good (Christian) news you didn’t hear from India... "But there is good news from India as well. Really good news.First, the gospel continues to spread powerfully in that vast nation of more than 1.3 billion souls. As reported by Dr. Ralph Wilson, “the percentage of Christians has increased substantially from 2.5% a decade ago to about 5.8% today. That represents a huge increase in the growth rate. Something is happening!”
And in some states, the growth is much greater, with Christians representing as much as 10-15 percent of the total population.
This is truly unprecedented.
Second, this surge in Christian population was in evidence in the election results in the state of Andhra (that is, Andhra Pradesh, a state I have visited annually since 1993). End of excerpt.

The unprecedented growth began in 2009, the same year the 1Church1Day strategy began to be used to mobilize continual prayer in Andhra Pradesh. Now I am not claiming that these were the only churches praying. I know there had to have been others.  But this does reflect the kind of Church growth we've seen in times past.  Secondly, they are applying the principles we teach praying into the 7 mountains.  They were praying for this party and candidate.  This is a powerful testimony and example of what can happen with the Church unites together to pray as one.
