The Holy Spirit has inspired me to write this particular blog for the past few days. More than likely, this blog is the beginning of a series of blogs that will be written for the sole purpose of admonishing all who read this that the Lord is saying, "it is NOW time for you to come out from amongst them!" I have been extremely prayerful as to what I should say to God's people, and I have been reading the absolute objective truth of God's Word, listening to His instructions, and spending quiet time with the Lord. I can honestly say, I HAVE BEEN WITH THE LORD! As I sit in Barnes and Nobles, in Reisterstown, Md, and write this blog, I feel the glory of God rush through my body; and His glory is piercing my heart even the now.
Many political leaders cry out false alarms that establishes a city or state in a State of Emergency, but they are what they are: false alarms! God is speaking through the shifts in weather, economic crisis, political corruption that is taking place within the walls of doors behind the doors of offices, and the great idolatry that the Christian church is worshipping. There are only very few people that can sense the filth that God smells, sees, and hears. The voices of this minute group of seers are not being heard by the masses; but this is not a big deal because it is designed by God for it to be this way in this season. However, wait until next season and holy fire will be released from heaven by this small group of prophetic seers that will make clarion calls for God's people to COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM!
This morning, I jogged around the reservoir at Druid Hill Park in Baltimore City, and as I jogged the Holy Spirit told me that the witches from over 300-400 years ago have released spells upon the government, Christian churches, families, and children in Baltimore to operate and function under the god named Baal. When I looked in the sky, I saw a vision through the clouds, and there was the god Dagon with his mouth open ready to devour God's people in Baltimore, but there was an angel that had its shield in front of the people of God! The Lord told me that the enemy really wants to continue to cause destruction in the city of Baltimore, but Baltimore could be saved. I prayed to the Lord about all that I saw, and the more I prayed the Lord showed me, through visions, of the various coven fortresses that were once established in the park of Druid Hill. The Lord took me through the covens and I saw witches that sacrificed thousands upon thousands of dogs, cats, birds, rats, and other creatures to the god Baal as acts of worshipping the god.
By the way, did you notice the fortress or stronghold that sits at the edge of Druid Hill Park that overlooks the entire downtown area of Baltimore? That is a place where demonic arrows were released into the spirit realm in Baltimore.
When I asked the Lord what these visions meant and why was He sharing this with me, the Lord told me that so many unsolved death mysteries were lying in the park of Druid Hill. On a hill, in the supernatural, the Lord showed me piles of skulls and bones on the hills in Druid Hill. The Lord also showed me the perversion of prostitutes, harlots, and many other perversions that have taken place in the park of Druid Hill. I was not shocked! The Lord also showed me different people in Baltimore that actually injected heroin into their veins in the park of Druid Hill. I asked the Lord, "why are You showing me this and what does this mean?" The Lord said, "the spirit of bondage is great in Baltimore and the spirit of death is great in Baltimore because of the curses and spells that have been casted upon the people.
None of this is a lie! These visions and conversation with the Lord took place this morning as I jogged three times around the reservoir. So what? Well, I asked the Lord to tell me more about what took place in the various covens that were established on Druid Hill grounds, and the Lord told me that the witches literally, word-for-word spoke into their rituals, "let every action that is taken in Baltimore to be performed unto the god of Baal!" God said what this means is that,"all leaders and non-leaders that do anything in the city of Baltimore, unless they denounce idolatry and lift My Name high above all the earth (city of Baltimore) then they will function for Me and not Baal!" Most pastors, apostles, and other clergy that are active in Baltimore would never believe this because they have not received the revelation about this. The Lord told me that their intent for doing ministry in Baltimore was not the concern about their image before God, but they are concerned about their image before the people of Baltimore.
As I thought about it, in the natural, the preachers of Baltimore are truly concerned with self-image as opposed to being set apart for God and being concerned with what God is concerned! The spirit of bondage is heavy in Baltimore, and it is so prevalent that if you were to talk to some people in Baltimore they would tell you that they do not attend any churches in Baltimore because there are not any churches in Baltimore; there are social clubs, but not churches where he Holy Spirit lives.
I love Baltimore, and I love the city, but the spirit of jealousy, spirit of lethargy, spirit of bondage to drugs,alcohol, and perversion is great. Why do you think the men in Baltimore cannot get jobs and do not work? Why do you think there were at least two hit television series that were extremely popular throughout the world featured the great death and great drug use of Baltimore? Why do you think Pastor Zachery Tims died? Why do you think Jamal Bryant and David Brown pastor the same type of that is spoken about in Christ's judgment against the church of Thyatira!
God says, "that there is not enough prayer services that can change the dynamic in Baltimore, but God says that if I can have people that are set apart for Me and only Me, then I will use those that are set apart to be vessels of honor that will be agents of change for ME. Until then, until I have people that are truly set apart for Me then I will not move the hand of judgment upon the city of Baltimore." The Lord told me that some of the preachers and men and women of God in Baltimore are truly convicted that the Holy Spirit is operating through them, but the Lord says, "Nay, it is not so!" The Lord says, "denounce the idols and destroy them!"
There are so many conferences that will be offered in the church entitled, Manifesting Servant Leadership, the Lord said "do not be confused, that is the new cliche and buzz word that churches will use to cover up their greed to make money!" The Lord says, "who goes to school to learn how to be a servant? Not only that, but those that are offering these conferences are not servants themselves nor do they want to be servants. They are offering these conferences to influence My people to be servants of man, and not Me!" DO NOT BE DECEIVED PEOPLE OF GOD!"
As I was listening to the 88.9 this morning, in the "gospel music" there was a commercial and a church is offering a conference entitled, "I AM BRING SEXY BACK!" The Lord told me that the enemy has blinded the eyes of some of My people, and some of My people believe they are operating under My power, but Baal is greatly working in their lives; the devil can do miracles as well!
People of God, please set yourself apart for God, and do not participate in the things of the world! To love and participate in the things of the world is to hate God (James 4.4). Look it up! I am not taking Scripture out of context!
EVERYONE, GOD IS MAKING A CLARION CALL FOR ALL OF HIS PEOPLE TO BE SET APART FOR ME! SET APART! SET APART! SET APART! COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM! COME OUT! COME OUT! COME OUT!
I WILL CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR BALTIMORE!
GOD BLESS YOU!
I AM COVERED BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST

And you shall be like ME!
"A disciple is not above his teacher, but everyone who is perfectly trained will be like his teacher" (Luke 6. 40). "But why do you call Me Lord, Lord, and not do the things which I say"(Luke 6.46)?
Although these verses in the book of Luke are not sequential, they are two thoughts in which I would like to minister unto you as the Lord has ministered unto me. Before I communicate what the Lord is saying in this hour, I must first tell you the Greek idea of a disciple. The Greek word for disciple is mathetes and is a noun that means a learner. In this prophetic teaching I want to help you to understand the relationship dynamic between a disciple and the disciples teacher, and to also explain the difference between a Christian and a disciple.
All Christians are not disciples, but some Christians are disciples. I say this because not all Christians obey Jesus Christ, but all disciples, for the most part, obey Jesus Christ. Just like a student attends some educational institution, completes homework, studies, reads, researches, presents projects, become elevated and promoted to higher grades, matures, fails and pass tests, the disciple experiences the same dynamics with Christ.
A Christian does the bare minimum. A Christian is like the person that attends school, believes that school is good, but is not involved in the learning process. The Christian does not do the homework, does not research topics, performs the bare minimum requirements with a spirit of lethargy, is late for class, disrupts class while their classmates are attempting to learn, predominantly fails tests with a careless attitude, does not memorize topics, themes, and concepts, and does not respect both him/herself and their teacher. A Christian attends church, and maybe pays a tithe whenever he/she feels like they should. A Christian does not communicate with his/her teacher on a consistent basis, but communicates with the teacher when he/she needs help. Times of need are when prayer is needed, a bill paid, son needs to be bailed out of jail, daughter is pregnant, stressed, going through a divorce, and the list can continue.
A disciple spends much time with their teacher. During the Greco-Roman period, the teacher-student relationship existed only if a student's parents were wealthy. The poor, the widows, the sick, and the orphans were not able to be taught by a teacher because a teacher had to make wages. Not only did the teacher make a wage, but in the fields of astronomy, history, logic and reasoning, physics, philosophy, and countless other topics that required some sort of brain manipulation, the teacher was a male. Female teachers were uncommon. However, if someone had a teacher then that person could be regarded as wealthy, and only the wealthy could succeed. In fact, it was very uncommon for a poor person to succeed.
God humbled Himself to experience all that humanity experiences in the flesh as Jesus Christ to deliver us from our Adamic nature so that we would not suffer the penalty of sin. In doing so, Jesus taught those whom He met, particularly His disciples, how to be like Him. First of all, Jesus had an exclusive amount of disciples which were 12 and that number later on grew to 72, but notice that everyone whom Christ met did not become a disciple. Jesus chose disciples and some of His disciples wanted to be with Him so bad that they resigned from their normal lifestyle to be with Jesus. In other words, Jesus' disciples terminated their former lifestyle to continue the works that they saw Jesus perform. Jesus commissioned His disciples to travel throughout the world preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ and baptizing in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
A disciple is an avid learner of Jesus Christ. A disciple not only learns from Jesus Christ, but a disciple learns from Christ only when the disciple is with Jesus. A disciple cannot be a disciple if the disciple is not with Jesus. The only time Jesus separated Himself from the disciples was when Jesus went to the side of a mountain to pray, but other than Jesus' time of prayer the disciples were with Jesus. Even when Jesus went off somewhere in a secluded area to pray, the disciples wandered, journeyed, and went on quests searching for Jesus because they wanted to be with Him. How bad do you want to be Jesus? Jesus sits on the throne at the right hand of God the Father and Jesus is not moving until He receives permission from the Father. Therefore, it is not hard to find Him, I believe the question that will challenge us is do we want to be with Jesus?
As the disciple finds Jesus, the disciple receives instruction, guidance, revelation, understanding, strength, rebuke, correction, discipline, healing, deliverance, salvation, reconciliation, and insight as to what Christ wants. As the disciple receives all these attributes, the disciple becomes, develops, grows, and matures into the nature and character of Christ. Of course, a disciple will never be perfect. A disciple will never be sinless and sin not be found in him/her, but the disciple will sin less. The disciple will sin less because the disciple's concern has matriculated from being concerned with self to being concerned with the concerns of Christ. A disciple will be so concerned with accomplishing the will of Christ that the minute things will not be a priority. The priorities of a disciple will change as a result of now being and spending time with Christ.
List your priorities and then spend three days with Christ and evaluate your priorities to observe if your priorities have changed. The priorities that I am referring to are not bills, children, and daily nourishment, but the priorities of watching "America's Top Model," "Housewives," "the Game,""Househunters," or any other thing that takes away time that could be spent with the Lord.
How can you know what Christ wants if you do not spend time with Him? As Jesus asks, how can you call Me Lord, and not do what I say? Well, in order to do what Christ instructs us to do, we must first spend time with Him. After we spend time with Him and He gives us a homework assignment, then we can be obedient. Obedience is where the true maturity and success will begin to manifest. Because as a child, we thought, spoke, and understood as a child, but now that we are mature men and women, we do not make the same child like mistakes we made in the former days.
The Bible says that Jesus is the light. Is that true? Well, yes it is true! The question that I probe is: Is the truth, that Jesus is the light, true for you? Is that true for you? If He is the light, then what Jesus is doing is shining light on everything that is dark. If you are unable to properly understand, or is experiencing darkness to the point where you cannot see straight and clearly, then ask Christ to shine His light in your life so that you will be able see!
The Lord says,"as I shine My light upon you, you shall see clearly and act as I, the Lord, your God acts. You shall behave, understand, and speak like Me. You will begin to mature in ways beyond your imagination as a result of the time that you spend with Me as your Teacher. I do not cost a thing says the Lord. You have received your eternal inheritance and the price has been paid, all you have to do is come to Me and I will show you the way so that you can walk right and walk with Me. I will take you to heights that you have never seen. I will open doors that no power can shut; I will bring you before people that will be amazed with how much you have changed. You will change because you will spend time with Me and allow Me to give you insight and instruction. Do not let this time of learning slip through time, but capture and seize these moments that I have prepared for you. You need to mature so that you can have authority and be successful!
Amen!
