We’re not done yet

There’s a another barometer 

The question came to me

Did you share the most important barometer?

I gave you all the others

God said no

Even if you touched on it

You have to make it so crystal clear 

If our responsibility is only one thing and that’s

 believing

And God said if you think you only have one battle

that’s ok, I gave you that last night

I told you it’s a battle because I wanted to you to see

the contrast in the atmosphere of the warfare, of 

spiritual warfare

Bu there will be some that even that one thing is all

they have to focus on, which is their faith

There will be some that will feel like they don’t want

to battle; even though they know that it’s just one

But what if I don’t want to call it a battle?

Just one joyful requirement

Its’ OK to call it that

One joyful requirement, blend it with joyful

The pronoun joyful

Let that pronoun proceed, whatever you want to call

it

Even joyful battle

What? Oxymoron

Joyful and battle don’t go together 

But above the line they go perfectly together 

Why?

I have a question

Because what’s the best thing that can come out of 

 battle?

The ultimate? What is that?

What is the connection with battle?

You should have no problem with battle and this is

Page 3: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 3/36

why

Because only with the true battle can you experience

the joy of true victory.

You will never experience true victory unless you’ve

experienced true battle.

God says I am the way, the truth, and the life.

And in Me, is 100% pure victory.

Hallelujah!

So use battle

It’s in your best interest

My permission is given to use something else

Call it whatever you want

One joyful focus I ask of you

That’s my permissive will

But my perfect will is call it what it truly is

When you call it what it truly is

That’s when it can truly be powerful

Face it head on from what it truly is

Page 4: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 4/36

Then your “victory” will have a little sugar on it too

Your seemingly “victorious place” will be side

stepped just a little bit

You won’t experienced the fullness

You won’t experience the 100% fullness of joy of 

that victory

But if you meet it head on 100%

Like the world, call a spade a spade

Call it like it is

In psychology they say if you can name it you can

tame it

And the world says call it like you see it….NO

Because human eyes can only see so much

God says call it like I see it

Come above the line

And you know exactly where the bulls eye is to faceit

There’s a bull eyes with a circle within a circle

Do you want your aim somewhat on the target?

Page 5: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 5/36

On the outer rings of the target

Or do you want it squarely, perfectly, dead center 

The only one that is solid is the center 

There is space between the lines

In the heart of it

The perfect center is solid

Do you want to be on solid ground?

Or do you want to hit between the lines?

Do you want your blessings to be extraordinary?

Do you want to hit the target right in the middle of 

the circle where it’s solid?

Because if you dart is landing anywhere else

What you will experience are blessings to a degree

Because you’re willing to settle for less than 100%

And there comes somewhat a “satisfaction” that you

 become OK with

Wow I just hit the outer board

That’s close to the rings

Page 6: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 6/36

I’m just happy to hit the board

Before I wasn’t coming anywhere near the target

 board

My darts have never reached up there near the board

I’m happy to be on the board

That’s a ploy of the enemy

Satan says just be happy to be on the board

My ultimate wish with for you my child, says God, is

100% in the center of the solid mark on the target

 board

And even then it gets better 

 No way, don’t kid me

Because if we measure the exact center you can’t get

 better than dead center 

Is there anything better than dead center?

God what are you saying, hold up

God says I can still use earthly/carnal things to make

my point

Here’s a story, a movie seen in theaters

Page 7: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 7/36

Written by carnal man or woman

Robin Hood

If we’re 100% perfect right in the center of the dot in

the target

Is our work finished because our faith is 100%

strong?

Is our work finished?

Wait, you said the ultimate was to believe 100% and

my arrow hit the center of the target

Is your work finished? No

Why God, why?

Because like in Robin Hood when everybody wasrejoicing that the competitor hit it squarely in the

middle

 Not that the competitor was evil

I’m not making an analogy of Satan as the competitor 

The other competitor at the time

The way God is telling me the story

That was an excellent shot

Page 8: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 8/36

Right squarely in the middle

That pleases God

Everyone would seem to happy with that

Even the angels are saying that is the highest, the

ultimate

So that should be enough

You should be done

You’re victorious

 No

God says, you’re not done

And this is why

My other children are not truly saved, yet that have

on the righteous clothes that are all decked up

But what more can I do?

I shot the arrow and hit it square in the middle

They even measured it and it is perfectly in themiddle by one millionth of an inch, they could not

even detect that it wasn’t exactly in the middle

Shoot again, God says

Page 9: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 9/36

But I can’t get any better, I reply

Shoot again

I guided the arrow before that went squarely in the

middle of the target

Shoot again

But God I’m so happy with the first arrow

Shoot again

The second arrow splits the first

God says that’s what I’m talking about

Splits the arrow squarely in the middle

That gets inside that perfectly aimed spot

That’s extraordinary

That’s supernatural

By splitting the arrow already in the center 

You’re not just done with you

My other children on this earth need to be split

If you’re willing to be my vessel

Page 10: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 10/36

Me through you

 No complication here

There’s not theology school you need to attend first

 No four years of seminary

 No theological institutions

 No, I’m willing, use me Lord

That’s when I split the arrow

And thus many lives are saved

In this life on earth, but more importantly, and this

life on earth, and the most important eternal life, they

are saved in both by splitting the arrow

Splitting the arrow

Question from God: this is the most important

question

How do you know what is the most important

question

It’s what God is flowing on through

I can’t explain it

Most important question from God

Page 11: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 11/36

Are you willing to give up everything for Me?

Everything?

Everything?

Question came to me first a few minutes ago outside

It came so clearly

God said Chris, will you give up everything?

When that question is asked we are quick to say yesLord I give you my everything

God says don’t answer to quickly

Think about it

Really, truly, think about it

Don’t answer this in haste, please don’t

God asks another question

Do you know what I’m asking?

 No, you don’t

But God I know what it means to give you everything

 No, you don’t

You have an inkling, you have an idea

Page 12: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 12/36

But when it really gets down to it, you have no idea

what that question means

You don’t

And to make it fair, this is God saying, I’m going to

make it fair 

You can’t have any idea

You’re not capable of truly knowing what that

question means

Chris, are you willing to give up Cubby Chris and the

Cub Club?

But God you gave me that

Wait, wait

You gave that to me and that’s mine

That’s my ticket to your miraculous blessings

Cubby Chris is going to help so many people

Those blessings are waiting for me, that’s Cubby

Chris

Everyone I talked to tells me Cubby Chris is a

winner, that’s genius, wow

Page 13: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 13/36

And they’re saying Chris you see how that could

change the world

I know you’re not doing it for the money

But it’s going to make so much money

This thing is so good, so encompassing good

God right now I got everyone working on this project

It’s all stemming around the Cubby Chris that you

gave to me

You gave me how the characters should look 

It if is taken from me and you see it out there making

millions upon millions and God you don’t get any of 

the credit

And when the credit rolls there are other names on

there and your name is not there

Another example on an earthly level

There were those that have everything for their 

families, for their livelihood, tied up into the stock market

And when it crashed a few years back, nothing like

that had ever happened, you hear the stories, they

Page 14: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 14/36

took their own lives

Because what they had was the center of their life

They had put everything in that center 

They had families to take care

There’s nothing wrong with a nest egg

Look at my family; I’m doing this for my family

They put everything there and it was taken away

And they thought they had nothing else to live for 

The believed the lie of the enemy

It’s all gone

How can you go home and face your familyThis is the end for you

The lie of the devil, just kill your self 

They did it, they took their lives

Such a sad story

Chris you have everything tied in to Cubby Chris

If it’s taken away what the first thing you will do?

Get on the phone with the attorneys?

Page 15: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 15/36

Are you going to go to them to act?

Can they fix the problem?

Or will you get on your knees to God and say I

rejoice in you Lord

Will you do that?

Question for all believers from God

Will you give up your child? Gone

Will you give up your child? Gone

Your husband? Gone

And everything you ever worked for 

Every penny taken away

What will be your first response?

And your second, and your third, and your fourth

Don’t answer right now, pause your self 

Paint a picture

Look at the picture and one by one delete one child,

delete the second child, gone, delete the wife, the

husband, the car, the house, and one by one, delete

everything

Page 16: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 16/36

Please don’t answer right now

Don’t answer right now

It would be unfair for Me to have you to answer right

now

What am I asking?

What am I saying?

Take out a pen and paper 

Right now

Really right now

And draw a line down the middle and on the left side

write down everything important to you

The most meaningful things to you right now in your 

life

Be honest, I’m not going to judge you

If the savings account you have built up is on the left

side, that’s ok 

Don’t try to hide it

The enemy doesn’t want you to put that over there

God knows the heart

Page 17: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 17/36

Put the car, it’s ok 

The easy things to put over there

My husband, my wife, my children

Put their names over there

My relationship with God

My bible

Ok I hear you

 No problems

My support group, very important to me, that’s over 

there

My abilities that people tell me I’m good at

You gave them to me, don’t take those away

Those are meaningful to me

On this left side the most meaningful things of life

Go on down the line

I’m now asking for top three

Brainstorm put them all down

 Now go to the right side

Page 18: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 18/36

Think about it, don’t be hasty

 Now number the left side in order of importance

God says do you see where I’m going

You already know where I’m headed

And I still don’t want you to answer now

Will you give them all up?

 Now if I compelled you to answer right now, thatwould really be unfair 

Because you would quickly answer yes

But you don’t understand what I’m asking you

Two thousand years ago

Peter didn’t understand

Peter didn’t understand the question

He answered in haste and said Lord, though everyone

else, though the heavens fall, I will never deny You,

in my heart I truly believe thisHe said that in haste, that’s why I‘m asking you not

to answer right now

With Peter I wasn’t “fair”

Page 19: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 19/36

With Peter that wasn’t a “fair” question at the time

What I was hoping was that Peter would have

stopped and thought about it

Peter didn’t know what I was asking

 Not once, not twice, but thrice

Of course you can stumble one time

Lord I denied you, I’m so sorry

Twice is understandable

I did it twice, but that‘s not essence of me

You know what I would do for you Lord

Three times Peter, three times

So I ask you again this most important question

This is the question

Will you give them all up and when they are gone,

still glorify My name, still rejoice in My Glory?

Truly praise My name from everything you havewithin you 100% and really mean it

And really mean it?

Page 20: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 20/36

That is the most important barometer that I

mentioned a while ago

The battle barometer 

You needed that

I won’t leave you out there with that alone

I’ve given you a barometer 

Fruits of the Spirit

Fruits of the Spirit?

What are they?

We can all say them together 

Love, joy, peace, long suffering

Against which there is no law

You can go to the word now

Look them up in your bible

It’s no mystery

You will need to know when you’re starting to slide

above the line

When you start to slide towards below the line

Page 21: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 21/36

I’ll let you know

When you asked for something blended with faith

Ask for God to take control 100%

My actions will demonstrate the glory of God

That my actions will demonstrate the fruits of the

Spirit

And the barometer is that if at any point throughout

that day, this is for every day for the rest of your life,

if you find yourself in contrary feelings, actions, or 

thoughts to the fruits of the Spirit in any task,

situation, or conversation, then you’re below the line

Being that it is your free will choice where you want

to be on that pole

Below the line it’s your free will choice; above the

line it is the Father’s free will choice

The Holy Spirit prays to the Father for you

The Holy Spirit sees the enemy coming in to blind

side you

You don’t have the presence of mind to know you

have slidden below the line

Page 22: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 22/36

You don’t even realize you’ve slidden down the line

You’re so busy and you’ve fallen below the line

You’re not aware of it

If you we’re aware of it you would ask God to take

you back above the line and help you

Because you didn’t know it, you didn’t ask for it

You have prayed and believed in faith blended prayer 

that the Holy Spirit will forever and always be the

watch dog that’s watching where I am on the pole;

watching very carefully for any movement, any

slippage

The Holy Spirit, the watch dog is watching

 Now is the time I need to pray for my self 

 Now is the time I’m slipping just a little bit

I see the enemy coming as I am slipping

The enemy is timing his attack with my slipping

The enemy sees the slippage

He’s telling his forces there’s a perfect timing for this

attack 

Page 23: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 23/36

Hold up, he’s slipping and he doesn’t know it, he

doesn’t even realize it

And that phone call today from that person who didhim wrong and found out he’s getting more wronged

He’s trying to clear his name

He’s spending his energy and time to clear his name

Saying this is a lie, this is false

I would never do a thing like that

That is the truth, he would never do that

He’s spending his time and energy calling attorneys

Because this is how he’s supposed to do it

He’s forgotten those battles are already won

He’s slipping because he’s feeling overwhelmed.

He’s got a dead line.

And his mother is deathly ill.

He’s running to the hospital wondering why she is inso much pain and dying.

He’s praying on the way to the hospital. He’s

 praying, God you handle this. I’m going to do my

Page 24: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 24/36

 part. Ploy of the enemy: God helps those who help

themselves. That’s a brilliant statement from the

enemy. What a brilliant scheme for the enemy to

make you think there’s something you can do, when

in fact there is absolutely nothing that you can do

about it. How often we fall in to the mind set of I

have to do something. Isn’t there anything that I can

do? Nope. There’s nothing you can do when

everything is already in God’s hands.How many millions believe that and they are in a

snare. They’re caught in the snare with just that one

statement alone. So Chris is doing everything. He’s

 praying, so he knows he’s on the right track. He’s

calling the doctors; he’s talking to the nurses.

Why is my mother in so much pain? Isn’t there

something you can give for the pain? Are you

incompetent? If this was you mother dying here.

You’re just getting your pay check. You don’t want

to be sued so you’re just doing the bare minimum.

 Now Chris is slipping. He’s below the line. He’s

at his weakest point. At his most powerless point his

shield of faith is on the ground, it’s too heavy to hold

up. His helmet of salvation is rolling down the street.

Page 25: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 25/36

The enemy says now is the time. Satan gives the

 battle cry. We’re going to catch him in the

midsection, force him to his knees, and finish him

off.

There’s nothing Chris can do. Chris is at his

weakest point. The enemy hordes are laughing. Chris

is bleeding to death. Chris is mortally wounded.

Chris can’t even cry out to God. Chris has nothing

left. Chris has only one breath left.

Just as the forces of darkness are closing in to

take his last breath; as they close in to snuff out that

last breath, a bright light shines from heaven. The

enemy looks up. And the force of that light clears out

the enemy. Jesus helps Chris.Jesus takes Chris in His arms and wraps His

arms around Chris and says I love you, you are Mine,

this will never happen to you again You will live

with Me forever and ever. You will never be

 blindsided again. You will never be broken down

again. I give you life, abundant, and overflowing.

I’ve opened your eyes.

I didn’t destroy the enemy. But the next time you

will see the enemy coming from a distance. And you

Page 26: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 26/36

will defeat him every time. The Holy Spirit is your 

watch dog now.

Look! The enemy thinks he is creeping up onyou. He’s hiding behind something. But he’s exposed

as clear as day. The Holy Spirit taps Chris on the

shoulder and says since we see this coming. Let’s

 praise the Father for what He’s already done. Watch

how the enemy falls and stumbles before he even gets

to you. The enemy’s approach is exposed, he can’thide anymore.

Wow that’s powerful. I want that. I want to stay

above the line. I want the watch dog, the Holy Spirit.

So I’m never blindsided again. You can have it right

now.What’s the one thing you have to do? Believe.

Ask believing. That the same as prayer with faith.

That is one thing.

Question: if you could only have one thing, one

spiritual thing, what’s the most important thing?

Chris, you said faith blended prayer.

This is God’s wind flowing through Chris, the

vessel. Which at some time before, I didn’t think I

Page 27: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 27/36

could be worthy enough to be a vessel for God to

flow through me.

I am worthy because God has made me worthy.Each of you reading this, you are worthy, right now.

You are God’s worthy servant. That is what you are,

 believe it. All you have to do is believe it and God

will flow through you. You are a worthy servant,

now, today. People will be amazed. .They will say I

want that. I want what you have.

Between prayer and faith, which one is more

important? Wait, don’t go there, you can’t really say

one is more important than the other, can you? Oh

yes.

Faith is more important than prayer. If you hadto choose one, choose faith over prayer. Wait, I don’t

understand! Explain please.

Second question: Which would you rather have

if you could only have one without the other, if there

was only one without the other? Trick question?

Think so? There’s a secret is inside the question and

there’s also a secret inside the answer.

We already know, God has revealed that prayer 

Page 28: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 28/36

 by itself can be just the words with no belief in what

is being prayed for. Prayer is a very good thing; it’s

communication with God. But praying without

 believing?

A person in a huge auditorium where everyone

can hear, that’s a prayer. They’re formally reciting a

 prayer, and it sounds good; it has all the right

spiritual words and terms. But does that person

 believe every word coming out of his mouth?

Don’t get me wrong. Half of what he prayed,

let’s say he doesn’t believe half of what he prayed

for, but it sure sounds good.

Is it possible the words of the prayer can have

the form of godliness but without the power? Don’t be messing with prayer now Chris. Prayer is good.

It’s from God.

Ladies and gentlemen, Chris will offer prayer for 

us. We are honored to have Chris here. Please bow

your heads. Oratorical prayer presentation with all

the right words is what we call prayer.

Even if the person praying doesn’t believe

everything he’s praying, God can still use that prayer.

Page 29: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 29/36

Because there are those out there in the audience who

 believe. There’s a bum sitting by the gate and he

hears that prayer through the speakers. This wretched

 bum on the street believes every word, and cries out,

God please save me. So prayer is a wonderful thing.

Prayer is a great thing.

This is the secret within the answer and this is

the secret itself. True faith is automatic communion

with God. True spiritual faith, not belief as defined in

the dictionary, but true belief in God, and everything

about Him. That belief has an internal mechanism of 

communion with God. That belief has you already

 believing in the spiritual realm above the lineWhen you’re above the line you are in direct

communion with the Father.

Faith, you’ve got it all inside of faith, the best of both

worlds, you’ve got communion and prayer with

 power.

Believing and faith are one and the same. I know this

is some deep stuff. I wouldn’t dare attempt to go

there of myself. You think Chris is going to mess

Page 30: Splitting the Arrow

8/3/2019 Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 30/36

with that area? There is no way; Chris is not touching

any of those areas. I’m not touching any of that by

myself. I’d be too scared to by myself. This is the

thing, I’m too scared to go there myself.

I guess that’s our barometer. Is it God speaking?

There’s the barometer right there. Line it up with the

fruits of the Spirit.

See how your day is going every day. If you find

yourself racking your brains, you’re slipping down

 below the line.

The Holy Spirit will tap you on the shoulder and tell

you I will raise you back up above the line. I’m just

letting you know so you can be mindful of what’s

happening to you. I’m just letting you know that I’mwatching out for you. You’re not going to slip down

on my watch, ever. The eyes of the Holy Spirit sees

and catches everything coming towards you whether 

it be carnal or it be spiritual things, He sees them all

as they are.

God has chosen me to be a pure connected vessel for 

the out flowing of His Glory and Grace and Majesty.

God is …. And leave it at that.

Page 31: Splitting the Arrow

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/splitting-the-arrow 31/36

God who is heaven will split those dots like an arrow

splits another arrow, and He will fill in those dots

with His Glory and Power, and Divinity

God splits the arrow in the center to show us that

even a greater victory can be achieved of which we

know nothing about. But He knows because He is

God.

God splits the arrow. That splitting reveals

something. God split the day into day and night. He

slit humanity in man and woman. He split the atom

into positive and negative. It’s the splitting that

reveals the true nature hidden within. A secret split is

a secret opened and revealed. There is nothing that

God can’t split. Each time God splits something He isrevealing something new.

When you start to worry that’s the barometer telling

you stay up there above the line. I’m so happy for 

what we’ve been given. God could have given this a

year ago, three years ago, ten years ago, why now?

Why give it now? God is up to something big. And

the timing is now. The time is now. A harvest is

coming. What that means, I don’t know for sure. One

thing I do know is that God has a harvest that’s

coming. He has other things He is working on. He’s

sending His words through others; those who are

willing to be vessels. It’s ok if someone says no. God

says ok, no problem. I have many children that are

willing. I was just checking to see if you were

willing. That’s ok, I’m not going to cast you aside.

He didn’t cast Moses aside when he said no to God;

when he told God you got the wrong guy. My speech

is slow. And I have not been favored in the area of  public speaking. I am not speaker. As a matter of 

fact, I have a stammering tongue and who’s going to

listen to me; they’ll think I’m a fool. I don’t have that

gift God. You didn’t give it to me. You could have

given it to me first and then ask me to go and then I

can realize the gift when I start talking. Then I’ll go.God didn’t do that; he just said I want you to go.

Greatness that God worked through Moses, can you

imagine the miracles, the supernatural workings,

extraordinary acts of God and deeds that he did

through Moses. Yet, how it all happened; it didn’t

happen in God’s perfect will because Moses keptrefusing to go speak because Moses said I’m not a

man of words. I have a deficiency. But God knew his

heart, like He knows each of our heart. He knew

Moses had a willing heart, but Moses without the

faith that God wanted him to have, the type of faith

God wanted Moses to have is that you will be a

 powerful vessel before Me to the Kind of the land.

You will go before all the rulers and speak to them.

Even though I’m not a man of words but I believe

that You God will give me everything I need to go

 before the rulers of the worlds. I’m sure everyone in

Pharaoh’s courts had such professional speakingskills. They were the king’s advisors and the

governors of the regions of the land come to listen to

the plan. So Moses overlooked one thing. When God

asked him to go, he pictured himself going up before

Pharaoh feeling insignificant. Moses felt feeling of 

outright shame, intimidation, and fear. Moses left outthe absolute power that God has. God could have

instantly made him the best speaker in the world.

God allowed His permissive will, ok, I’ll send Aaron

with you. But there’s one thing that stood out. Moses

didn’t want to be in that position of being ridiculed

when he came before the king. You called andaudience of the king’s court and you can’t get the

words out? What should we do with this fool? Moses

you actually have the gall to disrespect the king with

your speech? You knew you couldn’t speak well.

You can’t come before the king like that. You don’t

waste the king’s time like that; something very bad

could happen to you for disrespecting the king. Don’t

waste the king’s time. When you can find someone

who can talk for you come back; or worse we’ll send

you to prison so you don’t do that again. I believe all

kinds of thought were going through Moses’ head.

First I’ll get beaten and thrown into the dungeon. OhGod, not me, please. I believe it was very possible

that God is thinking, Moses you just don’t know what

I could have done if you had trusted me first with

your inabilities. I know you can’t speak. I know you

don’t have the abilities. Don’t you think I know that

already? If you had the faith to truly believe in Meand Mine power you could have been the greatest

speaker the world has ever known. But you missed

that Moses. So that was my perfect will. Ok, my

 permissive will, ok, Aaron you talk for Moses. All

right, but I still love you Moses. I still have a plan

that I will carry out for my people. So children of God, where are you right now in your life? What

deficiencies do you have? What are some things in

your life that you are ashamed of? What in your life

come as you are. Satan says don’t even think of 

sharing the good news because of your predicament.

That’s a lie. Paul was in jail many, many times, and

God worked mightily with him behind closed doors,

that souls were saved. I’m not just talking about those

that may be behind bars. I’m not just talking about

 jail. There are physical bars made of iron and then

there are spiritual bars. There are emotional bars.

Follow me now. There are those that I’m talking tonow that are not behind physical bars, but they are

imprisoned, behind emotional bars, and the bars are

keeping them from life itself.
