Do you need help?  Everyone needs help sometimes.  Jesus tells us in John 16:33 that "you will have tribulation."  Tribulation means trouble, persecution or affliction.  But don't worry because Jesus said "but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." 

Two Keys to Getting the Help You Need
The scripture reveals several keys that can help.  I'm going to share with you two.

The first key is to recognize the source of help.  It requires judgment on your part.  You have to decide who will be the most effective help.  The psalmist in Psalm 60:11 succinctly shares his decision as he appeals to God for help stating that "the help of man is useless." 

God's help on the other hand is marvelous.  The following scriptures reveal the second key as well as revealing  who, what, when and why!

• Who - Psalms 121:1-2 I will lift up my eyes to the hills—  From whence comes my help?   My help comes from the Lord, Who made heaven and earth. 
• What  - Psalms 124:8  Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth.
• When -  Proverbs 18:10 The name of the Lord  is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.
• Why -  1 Corinthians 1:25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.... 1 Corinthians 1:27-29 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.​

The Second Key is the Name of the Lord

I'm excited to announce that 1Church1Day 2.0 is rolling out this week.  We heard your feedback and have made the following changes:  

• A bug in the signup process was repaired by disassociating the address with the Google Map feature.  Signups will go much smoother now as the new user will not have to select an address from the drop down menu that Google Maps uses.  It's much less confusing.
• The Training section has been completely overhauled so that we'll be able to offer as many categories or topics as desired and we'll now be able to offer access to MP3's (audio) and PDF documents or books as well as MP4 (video).
• We are getting our KingdomLeague.org website back.  For the last 2.5 years its been tied to the app and every time we needed to change a page it cost over $100 and it introduced some confusion.  Have patience with us over the next several months while we simplify and better organize KingdomLeague.org & 1Church1Day.org.   
• Our relationship with the company in India is ending and we're seeking, praying for a "minister of technology," an industry expert with the character qualifications of an elder described in 1 Timothy 3 and Titus 1 to lead a tech team who'd upgrade our system and harden the code of our system such that we are able to offer world class security along with the ability to reduce customization from 3 months to one day thereby hastening our ability to mobilize and connect the Church to pray jurisdiction by jurisdiction. 

Could you do me a favor?  

1. Invite your friends and family to join us on the wall of prayer!  Encourage them to download the app and join us as we co-labor to build our Father's house of prayer for all nations. 
2. If you've not done so, could you go to the Google Play Store or the Itunes Store and leave us a great review?  It will help us show up higher in the search results in the store.  

Thank you,

Over the years I've discovered several keys to building our Father's house of prayer.  But today I am going to share a key that I've never seen addressed.  It has to do with the role of the kings and priests.  It's based upon a pattern King David first modeled.  It's the blue print for our strategy.  By 2012 leaders from over 38 nations had reported it had been responsible for establishing 31 houses of prayer from which 40+ churches were birthed.  However, there have been hundreds if not thousands of places  un-impacted because the did not follow the pattern. 

I'm going to share it today and risk offending you because I love my heavenly Father, I love His Church, His people, and the world. David's pattern is the key to the end time harvest of souls.  So with that in mind...

Every reformer in scripture followed King David's plan for inviting God's abiding presence on MT Zion.  What King David did on Zion in his tabernacle provides us the keys.  It is the pattern and that is why God says through Acts 15:16-17 that in the latter days David's tabernacle would be restored.  What is the purpose?  So that the rest of mankind can seek the Lord.   

Who are some of the reformers?  Solomon, Asa, Josiah, Ezra, Nehemiah and Hezekiah!  What is the pattern?  

Kings Initiated the Building of God's House!
The pattern begins with kings, not priests, who initiate building the house of God.  King David's first decision as king was to invite God's abiding presence through 24/7 prayer, praise and worship (1 Chronicles 13:1-2).  That decision included the king inviting other leaders to join him. The priests were charged with overseeing the building of this house of prayer and the kings and leaders gave first to this effort.  In other words, they put their money where their mouth was. There was action behind their words that God and men could see.

In 2 Samuel 6 we find his David's first attempt failed as they began with music and moving the Ark of the Covenant (type of God's presence) on a new cart.  Uzzah died when he touched the ark so the move of God had to stop.  It spent 3 months in Obededum's house before David discovered the proper way.  

David discovered that the ark had to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites which are a type of the fivefold ministry today (this topic is addressed in "Addressing the Issue of Pay to Pray).  The next key was modeled in 2 Samuel 6:13. They took six paces and then sacrificed offerings. 

Offerings are worship and one of the important signs of covenant to God from man.  For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.  The passion for God's presence will be reflected in your giving of time and your monies.  These actions reflect what is really in your heart.  Jesus says in John 15:13 that greater love has no one than this, than to lay his life down for his friends.  Then Jesus proceeded to the cross.  He love and He gave.  Bottom line, love gives their life and this includes time and money. 

Someone shared with me about a ministry concept that involved a team of ministers who would offer a "courts of heaven session" which I assume meant they'd interceded upon someone's behalf and utilize their gifts to hear what God's decision was and then then pray, declare or proclaim in response to that to the word of the Lord.  This kind of ministry has actually been offered for centuries through those with a prophetic gift.  Only in the last two decades has intercession begun to be explained from a courts of heaven perspective.  I believe it is part of the manifold wisdom of God being revealed in this day.  It's a new look at an old discipline from a different perspective.

Candidly, I distinctly remember God speaking to me about this concept in the early 2000s and the ORT/1Church1Day prayer strategy incorporates that revelation. In the strategy continual prayer, praise and worship seats the courtroom of heaven so you can come and plead your case and await to hear God's decision.  Now, back to the purpose of this article.

As I recall, they said something to the effect that there was a fee and that it just did not seem right to them.  They were uncomfortable with it as it seemed like they were charging for prayer.  It seemed like "pay to pray."  

When they asked me about it I had to qualify my answer because I did not have time to address this subject and cover all the bases.  You see, I was hearing things second hand and I did not have all of the information.  I did not know the motive of the ministers nor how things were actually being handled.  But I can tell you the way it was presented did not sound good to me either. 

It caused me to remember prosperity ministers who would use manipulation and violate trust in order to get more for themselves kind of like Eli's sons did in 1 Samuel 2:38-30.  Eli's sons took the very best for themselves.  Their greed defiled the altar.  Greed is typically accompanied by compromise and manipulation.  Why Paul even warns in 1 Timothy 6:5 that in the last days corrupt men would seek to use godliness as a means of gain.  But let me be clear, I do not know if that was the motive of the ministers offering the service.  It was the statement of "pay to pray" that inspired that the thought.  (Click here for Purifying the Altar.  This book impacted my thoughts about the minister's responsibilities years ago.)

The Bible is also clear that the the giver has responsibilities as well.  It is possible for the worshiper to have wrong motives and which is manifested when they try to use their offering to manipulate God or the ministry.  It's one thing to appeal to God's covenant exercising your faith but it is quite another to resort to a formula devoid of relationship with God.  This often descends into a form of witchcraft if left unchecked over time.  Galatians 5:9 teaches us that faith works by love while James 2:20 teaches us that faith without works is dead.  

Why we had a donor just weeks ago attempt to do that very thing.  They thought the could use their large offering they gave months before as leverage to manipulate our ministry into compromise.  Here's the truth.  

Do you know what KLI did?  Why we gave the offering back with a stern warning to never ever do that again. It was a  defiled offering which could lead to a defiled altar had we allowed it to lead us to compromise. 

The reason I am focusing on offerings and worship is because I have found this to be one of the consistent keys to answered prayer.  It has to do with honor and covenant.  You see, God is seeking those who will worship Him "in spirit and in truth."  

The Goal is to Hit the Mark!
Our adversary the devil seeks to make people sin.  People includes the ministers who are responsible for the altar and everyone else. Satan seeks weaknesses to exploit.  Sin literally means to miss the mark.  I don't care if you go to far to the right, or to far to the left, or to low or to high these all miss the mark.  The goal is to hit the bullseye.  

Personally, I like to use the term "hit the mark."  God's word is my standard and defines the mark.  In my worldview, the Creator of the Universe designed all natural and spiritual laws.  The Bible is like the manufacturer's warranty and owner operators manual.  It describes how things work and what will happen if I operate life within the parameters of the Creator's design and what the consequences are of operating outside of designed parameters.  

Candidly, I have found that tithes, offerings, first-fruits and alms speak to the four basic types of giving in the Bible.  These are signs of a people keeping covenant with God.  With each form of giving you will find God gives the worshiper a covenant promise to go with it.   The reason I share this is because I've discovered that when handled rightly, these are some of the important keys to answered prayer which I've observed over the last twenty seven years in ministry.

Here are the challenges we face: imperfect people, ignorance, mis-understandings, demonic influence.... and the list goes on.  Our goal is to hit the mark.  

Have you noticed how many Christians, well actually, how many ministers seem to struggle with keeping their word?  I have!  It grieves my heart and it grieves the heart our heavenly Father as well. Why is this?

At the start of this year the Lord gave me a word saying it was time to recalibrate our moral compass due to deviation introduced through the magnetism of the world. Three days later God marked that message with a sign and wonder at the North Pole (click here). 

Bottom line, the world was losing its way because their moral compass was skewed.  It was skewed because they had a wrong worldview and I don't think that it is their fault.  It's the Church's fault because one of the roles of the Church should be to serve as a conscience for the nation they reside in. However, I lay the majority of the blame at the feet of those who stand in the pulpit.  We've failed to make disciples and to speak the truth.  

The Church lost her influence because of compromise in the pulpit.  Forgive me!  Forgive us for failing to make real disciples.  

It seems as it the world has become more successful at influencing the Church more than the Church is at influencing the world.   This is a leadership crisis.  We've failed to disciple people after our Lord Jesus Christ.  He was the Word made flesh in John 1:14.   Did you get that!  Jesus, was the WORD, made flesh.  He was in the beginning (John 1:1)​ and in fact Hebrews 1:3 reveals that everything in this world is upheld by the "word of His power."  Check this out! 

The Scripture Says:

God's word says in Acts 15:16-17 and in Amos 9:11-13 that in the latter days God would rebuild David's tabernacle and set it up so the rest of mankind could seek the Lord.  The restoration of David's tabernacle is the key to the end time harvest.

Now, when I say David's tabernacle, I'm not talking about the literal tabernacle.  You see the main thing was not the tent as much as it was what King David did to make God's abiding presence welcome on MT Zion, in the city of Jerusalem in Israel.  He tasked the Levites, who are a type of the five-fold ministry, with the responsibility or organizing teams of people to offer up continual prayer, praise and worship.  By continual I mean 24/7/365 prayer, praise and worship.

Why?  Because David and the leaders determined in 1 Chronicles 13:2, that God's abiding presence was essential to their success and survival.  Therefore, they sought to make God's presence welcome by recreating the atmosphere of heaven on earth through continual prayer, praise and worship.  

God's plan is for His house to be a house of prayer for all nations.  

Isaiah 56:7
Even them I will bring to My holy mountain, And make them joyful in My house of prayer.
Their burnt offerings and their sacrifices Will be accepted on My altar;
For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations.”

The house of prayer is God's vision.  I sincerely believe that what David did his tabernacle on MT Zion was the blue print for this house of prayer.  That's what 1Church1Day is all about.  Mobilizing, coordinating, facilitating teams of teams such that continual prayer, praise and worship is offered up in a city, region, county, state or nation. 

Three Critical Elements Found in David's Pattern 

1. The king and the leaders both civil and religious decided God's presence was absolutely essential.  1 Chronicles 13:2
2. The whole process was kicked off and maintained with extravagant worship.  2 Samuel 6:13
3. The first thing the King did once it was set up is he delivered his first Psalm to Asaph.  1 Chronicles 16:7

In Hebraic culture kings and elders sat in the gates and made decisions with prophets giving God's counsel.  Elders consisted of civil and religious leaders.  These leaders decided to bring back God's presence. 

The second part of these three critical elements I rarely emphasize but it is a vital part.  In 2nd Samuel 6 David begins to bring back the ark of the God on a new cart.  They are thousands of people along with lots of instruments, singing etc. But it did not work as when the ox stumbled Uzzah put out his hand to steady the ark.  He died.  David had to leave the ark of the Lord in the house of Obed-Edom for three months until they had consulted the Lord on the right way to handle God's presence.  

We find two things in 1 Chronicles 15 and 2 Samuel 6:13-18.  First, the ark of the Lord had to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites.  The second thing that was missing was offerings.  David began the second successful attempt with offerings.  

Did Christ come to bring unity or division?  I submit the answer is yes!  You have to recognize a few things.  First, Jesus is the Word of God (John 1:1) and He decided that He would judge no one but rather entrusted judgment to the word that He spoke (John 12:48) and He and His Father, our heavenly Father are one (John 10:30)!  Therefore His word, His judgments are the same as His Fathers.  

In John 17:21 Jesus prays we'd be one but in John 10:34 He basically says He came to bring division even within families.  How can He do both at once? 

I submit to you to consider this question in light of our current culture war.  It's a reflection of the war that spilled from heaven to earth in Revelation 12. It is a war between the father of lies (John 8:44) and the Truth (John 14:6)

The Culture War & the High Ground
​The battlefield of this culture war we are engaged in is littered with numerous moral issues. I say littered because he who controls the language defines the parameters of the issue.  It's like the battlefield if you will.  

Our adversary the Devil is not stupid.  He understands that occupying the high ground provides the occupier an advantage.  That is why he and his children, in John 8:44 Jesus calls him the father of lies, seek to redefine moral issues.  His goal is to create a faux moral high ground.   

Here are a few examples which by the way, the Bible calls abominations.  Abominations are acts which enact a spiritual law that causes the very land to respond to expel its inhabitants through wars, disease, economic hardship, natural disasters....:

• Redefining marriage so as to encourage homosexual relationships (Leviticus 18:22, Romans 1:24-27, Genesis 2:26-27 & Genesis 2:24)
• Enacting laws and or a culture that encourages promiscuity outside the context of marriage & incest (Leviticus 18:9-20) 
• Sacrificing children on the altar of abortion. (Leviticus 18:21 &  Leviticus 20:2-3 indicates those who sit silently on the sidelines allowing the children to be sacrificed are just as guilty as those who commit the murder of their children).  
• Gender dysphoria was a new word made up in 2013 useful to the transgendered community who advocate more than male or female (Genesis 1:26-27).  If I am not mistaken some lists up to over 60 different possibilities.  Talk about the confusion of sin.  This also plays into the narrative which promotes sexual practices defined as abominations in Leviticus.  
• Remember, Phobias are "irrational fears."  Fear is not a bad thing unless it is in excess.  It's a God given emotion and meant to protect people.  Creating words and adding phobia is often used by a movement to use guilt so as to silence any opposition who might speak the truth.  Consider:  
  • Islamaphobia was a word made up in 1995 to help with Islam's cultural jihad.  Since 9/11 there have been over 35,000 terrorists attacks and 99% have been carried out by adherents to Islam click here.
  • Homophobia was a word created in 1969.  Click here.  Click here for a recent article by the CDC to see what doctors say about the risk.  An older CDC report I recall seeing in 2010 indicated that those who practiced this lifestyle had a 300% greater chance of contracting a sexually transmitted disease.  
  • These phobias are based upon lies and Proverbs 6:16-19 lists lies and false witnesses among the acts God calls an abomination.

Did Christ Come to Bring Unity or Division?  

I was praying early this morning and about two hours into my prayer the Lord shared a revelation about why so much of the Church is ineffective and weak.  In this short video you will discover the big difference between those who acknowledge and use the apostolic and prophetic gifts verses those who do not.  Those who receive them see a much greater impact in their cities and regions as compared to those who do not.

Those who do not receive apostles and prophets rob the Church of two powerful gifts God made for spiritual war. The difference between the Church who receives them and those who ignore them is like the difference between the lion and a domesticated cat. There is only one difference between these two cats and it is found in their eyeteeth. The canines. These are the teeth made for meat!

The ministers who only serve milk keep the church confined to their house.  The ones who serve meat loose the lions. 

It's time to move the Church from milk to meat! Hebrews 5:12-6:2

What could this training produce? 
History makers!  Visit this testimony Tim published this powerful testimony on June 1, 2019 titled "Proof!  1Church1Day in India Reveals History is in the Hands of the Connected Praying Church.  

Discover how that in the land filled with idols there was one bright spot.  That was in the same state of the pastor I mentored starting in 2009.   During the time they've used this strategy to mobilize 38 churches, they've seen the Christian population grown from 2.5% to 5.8% and Church history was made in India.

In addition, "Now, his son, Jagan Mohan Reddy, also a committed Christian, has been elected to be Andhra’s new chief minister. And the party he founded, founded, the YSR Congress Party, won by a landslide. And I mean landslide."

Where?  It's in the state, Andhra Pradesh.  Apostle Nani has been mobilizing Churches to pray together using this system I've used to help many with launch the India Prayer League. They've been praying for the YSR Party and this election as well.  Not only that, members of the apostle's household have been actively working with political campaigns.  

Bottom line, the Church that prays and puts their faith into action with wisdom can actually transform their community, county, region or state, should they choose to.  Leader, I can equip you like I trained Nani and help you build your network so as to increase the power you have to project in order to enforce the will of King Jesus.
