Left Behind KINGDOM COME Chapters 25 thru 27


Kenny is in Paris trying to figure a way to make The Other Light believe that he is one of them.


Abdullah has been sent by God to be in the major The Other Light office in Amman. Thinking of him as extremely dangerous, Mudawar, the office boss, nevertheless can’t resist giving Abdullah his way because the Lord has opened the door for him.


The Children of the Tribulation are about to be called together to hear a message from the Bible hero King David. Imagine!  


Ray picks the story up at this point.

King David, a murderer, an adulterer, and a horrible parent, oh and loved by God!

King David, a murderer, an adulterer, and a horrible parent, oh and loved by God! Chapter 7, Part 2, Spiritual  Giants by RT Kendall


The only person in the Bible described as a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14; Acts 13:22), King David was an example of the grace of God as Jacob was – with this difference: Moses, who wrote Genesis, does not allow us to get very deeply into Jacob’s conscious feelings, but the writer of the life of David lets us see how David felt. Besides that, we have David’s own feelings displayed in many of his psalms.


David had several wives and many concubines. God gave him the house of Judah and theIsrael, and if that were not enough, He said to David, “I would have given you even more” (2 Samuel 12:8). But all this apparently did not satisfy David. One day David saw a beautiful woman bathing. David’s lust seized him. Inquiring who she was, he was told that her name was Bathsheba and that she was married to Uriah, one of David soldiers. That should have stopped him. It didn’t. He invited her to his palace and slept with her. What might have been of one off afternoon affair became complicated when she sent word to David a few weeks later that she was pregnant. Then David conceived the idea of bringing Uriah home for the weekend to sleep with his wife. But as we saw earlier, Uriah had an “overly scrupulous conscience,” and he refused to sleep with Bathsheba. David therefore ordered Uriah to be stationed in the hottest part of the battle. It worked. Uriah was killed (2 Samuel 11).

Are You a Servant of God or A Friend of God? – Bill Johnson

http://reachmorenow.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/crying_out-1.jpg

For 34 years of ministry, I was God’s servant. I went all over the world to teach His Word with Holy Spirit results but unfulfilled in my own spirit. In all the wonderful things that happened, I finally found myself exhausted and running on empty. After those 34 years I let my marriage, my life, and my ministry fall apart because of my SERVICE for Christ. For the next four and a half years I thought that I had simply been born just to be a bad example.


Now I’m 77, totally fulfilled daily and overwhelmingly excited about fulfilling my purpose in Christ with this website. It took nearly my  whole lifetime to get me where I am today. But what made the difference between the “old Ray” and the “new Ray”? Bill Johnson rescued me along with Danny Silk and Kris Vallotton at Bethel church in Redding, California. They restored me by teaching me the deep truth of what Bill Johnson shares in this message. I became Christ’s friend and through that He has been able to joyfully show me HOW to serve Him as His friend.


When that change happened every bit of my earlier life came together as Romans 8:28 said it would – “All things work(ed) together for good to those who love God and are called according to His purpose.”  Here is the man who God used to rescue  me from the pit, clean me off with the blood of Christ, and show me God still had a greater purpose for my life. That’s why reachmorenow.com exists. Listen and trust what Bill Johnson says. This message was for me and it is for you. – Ray
