1. LIFE NOW BEYOND ALL WE CAN IMAGINE – By Ron McGatlin
In the Spirit I see extreme and rapid changes causing loss of our self-nature in the process of our becoming one with the nature of God.
Ultimate love is consuming our spirit, soul, and body, transforming us into the perfected sons of Father God. Dead to any and all self-desire and fully alive Spirit to Spirit as one with God in Christ and Christ in us by the Holy Spirit of God.
Having fuller knowledge of God’s direction and His perfect plan being brought forth by Christ in and through “we the people,” His Body on earth.
THE POWER OF EMPTINESS
Only an empty vessel can be completely filled with new. Only an emptied life can be filled with the life of God in Christ. The true born-again experience is a death or emptying of past life and the beginning of the new life of Spirit God.
It is like getting a brand-new computer with a greater new operating system and new much better programs as opposed to trying to add in some new programs into an old system that cannot handle the new.
The fallacy of adding God into our existing lives can create an unworkable mixture, if we do not allow Spirit God to take over our entire life. The true and abundant life of God fulfilling His plan on earth in us can never come to pass in mixture.
The darkness of evil strife and the devouring of one another in the self-life of fallen mankind, will not remain mixed with the love of God. One will destroy the other. The one that rules in our life will be in accordance with our decision made by our free will to choose.
Sadly, the passing church age was characterized by an attempt to add God into our lives as a part of our lives. This allowed God to only partially affect the function and decisions of our “real” lives. God was seen as our co-pilot instead of the captain of the ship of our lives.
Death to the self-life of trusting in our humanity is never without pain to our soul, our natural mind, will, and emotions. Therefore, the soul of a human being fights fiercely to remain in charge of life. Self-preservation is the highest priority of the natural soul.
Only truly experiencing the LOVE of God can dissolve the strength of our soul and by the Spirit transform our spirit into the Spirit of Christ. Our redeemed Spirit can then dissolve the old programing of our soul and renew our soul (mind, will, and emotions) to their original created state of oneness with God.
THE INVASION OF LOVE
As it is with a person, so it is with a nation. Nations made up of people with unredeemed souls will experience darkness and lack just like a person without the life of God within them.
When the all-powerful and all-wise LOVE of God floods the heart (spirit and soul) of only a portion of the population of a nation, there will not be continued coexistence. Either the darkness of self-life will be dissolved by the power of the love of God, or the people of darkness will attempt to destroy the people of the light and love of God.
The first and perhaps the most successful attempt of the darkness of humanistic self-life to take over and destroy the people of God’s love is to provide religious substitute systems of philosophy to replace the real love of God in the people. This deception can never work in the already mature people of God but can be very effective in the children and progressively in the future generations.
After the true love relationship with God with its power and wisdom is removed, the substitute religious systems will gradually morph into outright evil darkness in the deceived demonically inspired souls of the people of the tribe or nation.
Love provides mercy and space for the people to decide to receive the love and be transformed into the love, power, and wisdom of God.
The love of God allows progressive shaking or tribulation to bring increasing discomfort and lack to turn the people and the nation toward the love and provisions of God. If the people and the nation do not turn toward God and His love, the people and the nation will be brought down by the shaking and tribulation.
THE FULLNESS OF LOVE
All of the love, power, wisdom, and ways of Christ Jesus and the first century disciples and MORE is available now in the fullness of the love of the life of Christ flowing by the Holy Spirit of God into and through all who abide in Christ and in whom Christ fully abides.
Beyond all miracles is the love and wisdom of God available to us now to fully establish the reality of the kingdom of God, the kingdom of heaven, governing the people, the nations and all systems of life in this world.
This is the ultimate plan of God for every person born on earth and every tribe or nation. Every person has a purpose in the overall plan of God and His kingdom on earth.
Every work, job, and endeavor on earth is to be a part or portion of the working reality of the kingdom of God on earth. There is no distinction between ministry or business or any other work, service, or occupation except the part or portion of the needs of the kingdom that it provides.
We either serve God and his kingdom of light, or we serve self and the kingdom of darkness in everything that we do in life. The only other choice is to try to serve a mixture of both and sadly that is what many if not most Christians in recent times have sought to do.
This is the time of the worldwide arising of the love of God in man and the dissolution of the evil plans and work of the enemies of God on earth.
REST IN GOD
The rest of God in us is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. Rest does not mean being dormant or unproductive. On the contrary, we will be far more productive while resting in God than striving in our body and soul to get more accomplished.
Rest involves intimate connection in love with God, hearing and knowing His ways and specific guidance in all we do.
Rest involves complete trust in God. Trust involves faith that God loves us and that He has the power to take care of us.
If there remains anything in us that is not of His kingdom it needs to be and will be shaken until we let it go.
THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND
The end of the age of mixture is upon us now. We cannot add in new programs to a dying system. A whole new life of love in God is before us and nothing but ashes is behind us. While the old world of mixture dissolves, we observe its smoke arising from a distance. (Revelation 18).
We are consumed in the Spirit in Christ and Christ in us abiding as one in love experiencing the fullness of His presence in the perfect peace and ecstasy of God’s LOVE.
Beyond the harvest, beyond the shaking and tribulation, the awakening new generation of pure holy people of God will bring forth the new world order of the kingdom of God on earth as it is in heaven. No more mixture. The perfect life as the Garden of Eden that God designed for His family to abide in and with Him on earth. (Revelation 21).
THE DEVIL’S COUNTERFEIT KINGDOM
The luciferin counterfeit one world government is a deadly godless system attempting to steal the real kingdom of God from the people. As the kingdom arises in the awakening people of God, the evil counterfeit kingdom will be defeated and dissolved.
The massive division in America and most of the world may be now spearheaded by political parties. HOWEVER, IT IS NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE. IT IS NOT ONE PARTY AGAINST ANOTHER IN A HUMANISTIC DEBATE OVER ISSUES.
THE REAL ISSUE IS GOD OR NO GOD.
POLITICS ARE A NON-ISSUE. THIS IS A SPIRITUAL WAR. IT IS LIGHT AGAINST DARKNESS AND DARKNESS AGAINST LIGHT. IT IS THE WAR OF THE AGES. THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS INVADING EARTH TO FULFILL THE WORK OF OUR LORD AND KING, CHRIST JESUS THE WORK OF RETURNING THE KINGDOMS OF THIS WORLD TO FATHER GOD. IT IS THE TAKING BACK OF PLANET EARTH AND RESTORING ALL THAT WAS LOST IN THE FALL OF MANKIND IN ADAM.
The true new world order is the kingdom of God that begins in you and me, “we the people” in whom Christ Jesus reigns as Savior, Lord and KING of all. Spirit God ruling and reigning by pure holy love is flowing within us and through us to every aspect of life and governance of all things on Planet Earth. This is life beyond all we could ask or think.
“For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, 15 from whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height— 19 to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” Ephesians 3:14-21.

DIVINITY IS PARTNERING WITH HUMANITY – By Lisa Great
For righteousness to exalt a nation there must be the removal of wickedness. You cannot build a nation that loves righteousness while that same nation revels in wickedness. Wickedness may not be in you, but it is in the nation and the Lord is going to deal with it for He has a destiny for every nation.
“Your Comeback Will Be Greater Than Your Setback” Elaine Tavolacci
When they are released from captivity and get back out into the wild, they are going to take off running into the environment that they were created to live in. The Lord says, “This is how it will be with the Body of Christ. Many are discouraged and dismayed from being locked up and shut down. Right now, Believers are imprisoned and locked out of their churches, but they are being fed meat and strengthened by Me during this time of isolation.
This Will Turn – Mario Murillo
While leftists are saying, “Christianity is done in America,” I say, “At the end of this lockdown, an amazing ingathering of young souls will begin.” To try to prove me wrong, the Left drags out the usual suspects—trends and statistics (including the coronavirus) — in an attempt to validate their argument.

A MESSAGE TO THE CHILDREN OF GOD AND THE ENEMIES OF GOD IN AMERICA – Mario Murillo
America did not just happen. From the first flickering flame in the first heart that yearned to breathe free…God was in the mix. He set the wheels in motion for a band of farmers to unseat the greatest military power in the world. He, not we, are the source of our nation’s greatness. At this moment blood is running in our streets, and madness reigns in our media, universities and much of the seats of political power. They are
