A number of years ago, I found myself thrust into a “Cult.”
I never imagined that I would have any association with such a ‘deviant church,’ but one day I woke up and found my self as a victim from this church which I had sought out to live my Christian life through.
I had been living in the Dallas area for maybe fifteen years, and my last job was at a Walmart, where I had been promoted to Assistant Manager status. I went through the training and all and then was running a Walmart Auto store within the Walmart store. These Auto stores were completely autonomous from the main stores, yet we were under the umbrella of the Bentonville corporation, nonetheless.
Well, my District Manager was the son of an upper echelon Board Member and high executive of Walmart out of Bentonville, as well.
So, after finishing my training, I was placed in a store and was supposed to receive three days of personal training from my District Manager. It was there where he was supposed to train me on which Paperwork that I would be needing to file and all other protocols, to get me off and running as a knowledgeable and trained manager.
Instead, as I arrived at the store the first day, he introduced himself, introduced myself to the Store Manager, and then just left. Perhaps, he spent a total of ten minutes there and failed to alert me to any protocol.
The man didn’t show me a single thing concerning the protocol’s of running the store. Nonetheless, the store manager was pretty understanding, as he knew of the whole situation. Well, a few weeks later, my manager showed himself and then tells me that he was placing under my care, a Customer Service Manager who had some issues in dealing with customers. Apparently, the guy kept getting into it with customers as he was very argumentative and head strong always claiming to be right.
This was now the third store; I believe that he was transferred too.
Well, I told the district manager that I didn’t like the idea and that I was trained in the manner where I would be making employee decisions, as to who would be hired, I told him that I did not like the idea of placing all of “Customer Service,” on an individual who was not a people person to say the least. it was useless though. Nonetheless, It didn’t matter, because this guy had to place the man somewhere, so why not at my store.
Meanwhile, one of my employees was a little guy maybe four foot something from some country in Africa. He was a very friendly fellow, a student, but not brimming with mounds of common sense.
His job was to receive the cars that would drive up to get their oil changed. Generally, they would drive the car up, tell the man exactly what they wanted and then give him the keys to finish the drive into the garage and to place the cars on the lifts where they would be raised up to change their oil.
So, one day, I finish my day and go home at the end of my shift. Nonetheless, a few hours later I was called and told of an incident where a car was involved in a minor accident which had been driven by my African friend into the garage.
Later, as the story was related to me, a customer drove up to the reception area, ordered the services and then handed his car keys off to the little African guy. Well, apparently when the customer handed off the keys to my employee, he told him, “Oh, and by the way it needs new brakes because the brakes aren’t working properly.”
Well, that was when my friend, having driven it into the garage, found that he couldn’t stop it in time.
I don’t know what happened after that, but insurance was recorded and I assumed that all was done on my part, since everything was reported to my District Manager, as well as the store manager. I figured if I needed to do anything more than that, my District Manager would be informing me.
Well, a week or so after that my “Customer Service manager” who I had never really accepted from having him forced upon me, had gotten into it with a customer who ended up calling “Corporate,” with a complaint concerning the management of my store.
Well, whenever you have a complaint at Walmart that goes up to corporate, it becomes a big deal.
So, sure enough it all rolled back downhill and “Corporate,” needed some answers as to what was going on at this store which recently had an accident and a major complaint from a customer.
Well, I came in one day and there was my district manager who had failed to show me any Protocol for filing the proper paperwork concerning the accident or of any other Paperwork concerning anything. Yes, the same guy who had ordered me to hire HIS choice for my Customer Service Manager, who had just recently got into a major conflict with a CUSTOMER.
And so, when it all exploded up to where “Daddy’” was working in Bentonville, they wanted
Therefore, I was given a choice to either step down as a manager or to be fired.
Well, I told the man that out of principle I was not going to step down because at the same time, I would be declaring that I was negligent and a failure in my duties of manager.
I told the man point blank that the screw ups which had all occurred were on Him, and I wasn’t going to go anywhere, yet if he wished to fire me then that would be completely acceptable to me.
Well, I had been working for years while at the same time following the Lord and working for the Lord in various duties, such as writing on my web sites.
Nevertheless, I had made up my mind that I was going to sell my car and furniture and then place all other personal needs in storage. This would allow me to further investigate several ministries and to decide upon which Church that I was going to settle in, so I could have a “Base,” to work out of, as I was further going to move out into ministry.
I had like four or five churches in mind where I had heard they were more than churches, but instead 24-hour ministries where the people lived in a seven day a week experience with God and community.
You see, what I was hoping to find was a community like the first Charismatic Community in which God had called me to when I had first become a Christian.
I have visited most of these a few times already in my past but decided to visit them again. I had also traveled extensively from a teenager hitchhiking up and down the California coast, to hitchhiking numerous times around the country to visit conferences, speakers, revivals, you name it. For several years, I rode my motorcycle all year round and did much traveling with that from state to state, as well. Then there was the time when I finished a truck driving course and trained to drive a truck through multiple states, as I learned to live on the road with as little hardships as possible.
So, anyway, I left Cedar Hill, Texas with my thumb out and had planned to visit a number of ministries in order to find a devout and Holy Place where I could join together with like minded Christians who loved Jesus and to join them in their journeys where we all could help establish the “Kingdom of God on Earth.”
The main ministries where I had planned to visit once again or to investigate was “Bethel Church” although I had already investigated it on two other occasions for a few weeks at a time. Nonetheless, who know, perhaps God was calling me to visit it again and to walk away with a more perfect perception of it.
He did not, and so after spending a few weeks there I began heading East again.
I stopped in Las Vegas, and visited the “Church of Las Vegas,” but “No,” that bed was too lumpy too.
Well, then I headed to South Carolina, where I had visited a ministry there a few other times and had attended many conferences. Nope the porridge had too much salt in it.
Let’s see, I visited a few other places but the only one that I held out as a possibility was a Fellowship in Kansas City, which had a twenty-four-hour Prayer Room.
This was the one that I was interested in more so, than in most others. You see, I have always excelled in the gifts of Prayer, and I loved “Prayer” more than any other experience which one could have in the Lord.
When I had first left Cedar Hill with my thumb out, I passed through Kansas City and asked all around, If any knew where the International House of Prayer was, yet no one had heard of it.
Nonetheless, I went on toward Redding, California, and had put it out of my mind. So, now I was determined to back track and to visit this one last community. Also, earlier in my life, I had lived in Tulsa on three different occasions but just found most of Tulsa…….well, can you say “Too religious.”
The thing about Tulsa which always amazed me was the fact that they had more Christians per capita, more Christian media Radio and Television shows, more conferences, more churches, more preachers, more ‘Super Preachers,’ more everything Christian or religious.
Nonetheless, from Google:
These are results for why has tulsa had more crimes, more murders more drug problems than so many other cities in the nation in the last forty years?
AI Overview
Tulsa’s persistent challenges with violent crime, murder rates, and drug issues stem from deep-rooted, systemic factors rather than any single cause. The primary drivers include severe economic inequality, historical and ongoing segregation, underfunded social services, and the devastating impacts of the state's opioid and methamphetamine epidemics.
Key factors fueling these issues in Tulsa include:
It is worth noting that while these issues have plagued the city over the last four decades, crime trends have recently begun to improve. According to the Tulsa Police Department, the city has seen a gradual but steady decline in violent crime and homicides over the past several years, aided by real-time crime-mapping technology and community-based intervention initiatives.
Well, I also spent a year living in Nashville where they have a huge, massive problem of “The Religious,” as well.
“God help us from the Religious Nashvillites!”
So, anyway I head back to Kansas City, but this time I did my homework, and I found out that the ministry wasn’t in Kansas City, but in a small little town outside the borders of K.C.
Well, my last ride was with a truck driver and we got along great, as I always share my life or Christianity with the drivers. Many times, they will tell me that they love my stories which always make me feel great.
Anyway, we were getting close to Grandview, and this driver says, “John, I’m not going to do it, I am not going to let you out of this truck until I know that you are “hooked up,” with a trucking company.
You see, I had gone through truck driving school, ridden in trucks since I was a teenager, was more familiar with the many ways that you can use truck facilities to bless you on the road, but had never really done much Over the Road driving.
So, back then before you could be placed behind the wheel of a truck carrying 80,000 pounds of weight behind you, not only were you required to have a CDL which I had been carrying for like five years, but you also had to be recently driving over the road for a number of months.
Today, it is a little different, from my understanding all you have to do is to sign a paper stating that you can’t speak English, nor read road signs, you can’t read a map, but have good GPS skills from some European back country GPS unit that also tracks mules and horses, as well as gophers if they happen to run off with your tracking unit.
Nonetheless, this guy talks on my behalf to a recruiter at a local Trucking company with a main terminal in Kansas City, and the recruiter threw me in a Semi truck as a trainee for eight weeks and then I was released as a permanent driver.
In almost any other situation most companies would have forced the prospective driver to pay a couple thousand dollars to go through a refresher course.
So, I was to meet with the recruiter that Monday, but meanwhile I had the driver drop me off from the 24 hour Prayer room Saturday morning around four or five.
..to be continued….
Part Two:
In this next part of my story I am going to tell you of one of the most shocking incidents in which I experienced in the American Church. When I found out about this incident I was ‘shocked’ to the extent that it is very likely I went into a sort of Medical “shock,” myself.
Following from “Google:”
AI Overview
Yes, it is entirely normal to experience a brief state of psychological or emotional shock upon learning of a violent attack. This reaction—often referred to as an acute stress response—can occur even if you do not know the victim personally, as the brain rapidly processes the perceived threat and cruelty.
How Shock Manifests
When confronted with highly disturbing information, your nervous system can trigger a "fight, flight, or freeze" response. While not as severe as medical shock, the psychological and physical symptoms can include:
Hearing graphic details can overwhelm the brain's natural coping mechanisms. This reaction operates as a temporary psychological defense, allowing the body to manage a sudden influx of negative arousal and distress.
For most people, these "small" symptoms of shock are short-lived and subside as the brain processes the information and the nervous system calms down.
Lastly, I am not a weak individual I have experienced some of the cruelest treatment by individuals who I once considered friends. I have endured many physical painful sufferings. I have been in accidents where I was moments from death, not a whole lot can move me. As I stated in another paper yesterday, I believe that had I not been recording and posting the daily activities around this cult, I would have surely been attacked myself and possibly murdered to keep me silenced.
You see, a lot of times we tend to forget the amounts of money which pours through these huge mega churches or corporations. This is why these people will step down to the lowest level of humanity and to do anything possible to protect or to defend their interests in these glorified kingdoms in which the church so easily becomes enslaved to.
Right before I left this community they came out with an announcement that there was an older couple who were going to leave to IHOP something like eighty or ninety million dollars in Property to this cult.
Well, it was all too obvious to me what was happening. You see, every time this so-called church took a new direction they would always refer to a “Prophecy,” delivered by a Prophet named “Bob Jones.” Not the one who is famous for his Bible School, but another man who had claimed and moved in occasional “Prophetic Gifting.”
You see, it is possible to be gifted with the supernatural gifting of the Holy Spirit, yet also be susceptible to falling or in misusing the gift.
Nonetheless, what the charismatic church has done in the last fifty years, is to recognize a man walking in the “gift,” and then from then on they treat or tell the great stories or false narratives of the man having been infallible during his “walk,” as a Prophet. Nevertheless, they will only do that to those whose “gifting,” they wish to utilize or to use in order to verify the false integrity of their ministries.
For instance among many in the Prophetic there will be story after story of the exploits of the great Prophet Bob Jones and how he “prophesied” this or he prophesied that.
Well, among others IHOP milked the false narratives of the man’s ‘prophecies,’ for all that they could get. When the cult decided to build a record studio and have the artists sign over their personal residuals and rights to the corporation they had claimed that “Years ago, Bob Jones had prophesied Mike Bickle was chosen by God to be the “worship” king or whatever,” they claimed that Mike was as King David and therefore the cult made a whole lot of money enslaving the naïve worshipers who would later write music and such for the benefit of the cult.
When Mike and all of the cronies who surrounded him and served him decided to get involved with Israel, wouldn’t you know that Bob Jones was right there prophesying what was to soon be a self-fulfilled Prophecy.
When after I was publishing a rebuke to the Charismatic Churches for not having any works, Mike has a revelation and responded by starting up a justice platform or something, as he called it. Soon, they were starting a number of ministries where they went into the city and began doing things for the Poor, as well, as all kinds of other works that they had never ever considered.
Nonetheless, Mike was a brilliant man as an administrator and soon the cult through it’s “works ministries,” was taking in hundreds of thousands of dollars. In other words, the man took my preaching of concern for the homeless and the down and out and then turned it into a money-making machine by using his naïve followers who hadn’t a clue about anything. They just all listened and obeyed their leaders. PLUARL!
You see, what ever Mike set his hand too he had tens of a hundred “Yes Men,” who would do whatever he asked. And then after he fell, I was forced to see these “scum” all over the internet pretending as if none had a clue of the depravity of this man’s life.
Well, he could have only played out his depravities for decades unless he had all of those individuals who held up his arms, just as they did with Moses.
Do you understand what I am saying?
Just the other day, I saw a clip where a few of these former “scumbags,” were on a “clip,” talking amongst themselves. So, as they go around each giving his three dollar bill, bull poop, you get to hear every one of them, “Why if he had just sat down and shared with any one of us, why IHOP would be here today.”
These guys knew every single thing that Mike was involved in and were all part of the massive Cover Ups,” which followed.
So, then there were a few other surprise events in which all of the leaders had agreed upon, and just like clock work these many leaders would take the pulpits and explain on how Mike was given a new direction from the Lord, and what always followed was another story of how Bob Jones had just happened to prophesy the exact direction that the cult was now going to move in.
Well, just as I was about to share before I got off on my rabbit’s trail, during the last few months that I was there the leaders came out and told of this elderly Jewish couple who were in their nineties that were living within miles of the cult. They were relatives of former President Truman and were the landholders of said property which was worth millions of dollars.
Well, what had happened according to the testimony of these co-hort leaders which announced the ‘good news,” to the congregation, was that while cleaning an office storeroom or something they had found an old “Prophecy,” spoken by Bob Jones and in the paper it had spelled out what God had told Bob Jones personally.
Well, near as I can remember “God,” you all remember God still, right?
Well, God had told Bob Jones that this elderly couple which were somehow related to the former President Truman and were the owners of his former property were supposed to give to the “cult” or I guess to bequeath to the cult these properties worth millions of dollars’ in order for the cult to erect a twenty four hour Prayer Room solely devoted and strictly for Prayer to the Nation of Israel.
The entire Prayer room would resemble the prayer Room which Mike built his ministry upon, and had been in existence for some ten years or so, where 24-hour prayer went up day and night every day of the year. Prayer going up only for Israel though.
Well, so that day when they announced the good news, of course they took a great offering and then promised to fill them in on the events as they would be progressing. Nonetheless, I soon found myself being carried out of the Prayer Room and thrown out the fire door and ended up landing in the alley on hard cement. Still with my eyes closed and speaking nonstop in tongues as Mike’s henchmen were carrying me out so the entire Prayer Room could witness.
I finally left the cult for good, but as I recall that was when I published an open letter to Mike Bickle.
Nevertheless, I don’t believe that I had ever had anything worse happen to me, as this event in my life. You see, after a few years in the cult there was a vicious attack on a female member of the cult. Nonetheless, as I said, I was literally in “Shock,” when I learned of what had transpired in this event that I am about to talk about.
As I was just thinking about it, I was imagining the many individuals who had family members die in the World Trade Towers. You see, it was as if you were going to lose not one, but a whole slew of family members since what these individuals did was to sacrifice their own lives, as well.
When Satan moved these individuals to commit these acts on behalf of their youth, jealousy, envy or whatever else they were moved by, he took their lives with him as well as those who were the victims.
Do you understand what I am saying?
I despise every one involved in the attack and also in the “Cover Up,” but it has been a long time and I have forgiven each one of them, nonetheless, what should sadden all is the fact that through this one act in which the devil orchestrated through some very mixed up kids and adults, changed the lives of so many people and some are going to spend the rest of eternity in eternal suffering. Therefore, should I be glad, every time that I see one of them reaping the results of what they sowed?
A thousand times “No.”
But you see this is what America needs to hear and to understand. You know, the other week, I just laid into the religious here in America. I attacked the Fox News people; I attacked those new converts who came to accept Jesus because Charlie thought “He was cool.” I attacked the high and the mighty Baptist who believe they are going to heaven because they have been blaspheming the work of the Holy Spirit for decades and have dissuaded millions from receiving the one hope that God has given the church for these last days.
Well, now God has moved me to go after these individuals who have all been pretending that they are the great apostle and prophets of this next generation, you are not!
So anyway, I haven’t even started Part two, as that was just a “lean in” to it. Therefore, Part two is what I just wrote and Part three is now going to be Part ………..I don’t know I’ll figure it out….
In the Bible Jesus told his disciples that “Where two or more of you are gathered, there am I in the midst of you.”
There is another place in the Bible where it says that “One will put a thousand enemies to flight, yet two together will put ten thousand enemies to flight.”
In other words, the Bible teaches that the “Power of God can be exponentially increased when two Christians come together in the same purpose and will to fight injustice.”
This of course, is why when you look down through church history or mankind’s history, you will see time and again where “supernatural forces,” AKA Satan, the devil, Lucifer will ultimately SOW division in any situation where two or more Nations are coming together to fight against Evil.
This is why in the Middle East right at this moment Iran will not let up his attacks on those countries who are hoping to come to a “Peace Agreement.”
This is why the Abraham accords were abruptly stopped midway when October seventh occurred or even going further back when China released COVID on the world, if I have my dates right?
This is why on any day of the week you can tune in to a “You Tube,” cover and see one ministry after another trying to tear down and to destroy many “Spirit Filled Ministries,” though there are many of those who have needed “correction,” for their past actions and for some time.
Nevertheless, this is why Satan is constantly bringing one Nation against another Nation and especially in these “last days.”
Did you know that it is Prophesied that in the Last Days, this will be a sign of the Second Coming of Jesus.
That, Nation will be against Nation and as I have heard preached numerous times, that the word used in it’s original context will have a racial context to it.
From Google:
AI Overview
The phrase "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom" is primarily located in the Olivet Discourse in the Bible, specifically found in Matthew 24:7, Mark 13:8, and Luke 21:10.
The Greek Original
The original Greek text and its literal meaning highlight a contrast between cultural/ethnic groups and geopolitical territories:
In context, this passage is part of Jesus' response to His disciples about the signs of the end of the age and His return. The phrasing suggests a massive, cascading escalation of conflict: Ethnos against Ethnos: This indicates widespread cultural, tribal, or ethnic warfare and civil unrest where distinct groups of people fight each other.
(Author’s note: This is why we hear of so many tribes in Africa and uprisings all over the world of one Nation against another Nation. This is why Satan places a lust for Power and land into the heart of a devil influenced man with an insatiable urge to slaughter millions of innocent people and having destroyed millions of lives is just as filled with an even stronger urge to slaughter another few million.
No, what the world needs to do is to come together and to eliminate this manifested devil filled leader from humanity.” One day there are going to be world Leaders to stand before their “Maker,” and God is going to ask them, “Why did you allow those millions of people to be slaughtered from that worthless devil with no other purpose in his heart but to slaughter millions of my children who were “the crown of my creation”? )
AI Overview
When taken together, these passages mean that spiritual fellowship and unity create an exponential multiplication of divine power and presence. While individual faith is highly effective, combining forces with another believer does not simply double your strength—it multiplies it tenfold because Christ Himself steps into the center of that connection.
Here is a breakdown of how these two ideas connect structurally and culturally:
1. The Principle of Exponential Synergy
The first phrase refers to Deuteronomy 32:30, which observes: "How could one chase a thousand, and two put ten thousand to flight..."
2. The Catalyst for the Multiplication
The second phrase answers why this dramatic jump happens. Taken from Matthew 18:20, Jesus says: "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."
3. A Quick Note on Original Contexts
While these verses are beautifully woven together in modern worship and prayer circles to emphasize the "prayer of agreement," they actually originate from two very different contexts in Scripture:
Summary Meaning
When paired together, the takeaway is clear: Do not isolate yourself. Isolation caps your spiritual impact at a "thousand." Walking in authentic, unified community with even just one other believer invites the presence of Christ, unlocking exponential strength to overcome massive obstacles.
Well, that was a rabbit’s trail, let me get back to the purpose of this Paper.
Part Three:
So, my truck driver friend and I parted after he went out of his way to make sure that I could utilize my CDL, once again which I had been carrying for a few years.
So, as was the case, I had been traveling the country with a couple hundred dollar modified Luggage Cart a medium Duffel bag for my clothes and stuff and firm backpack for my personal items, such as MP 3’s and Netbook had him drop me of near a church right next door to some of the property. Well, it was like four or five in the morning and then began to rain relentlessly. So, I remember standing in a shadow of a wall at the church with just maybe a few feet shelter from a roof overhang. It continued to rain and finally it was daylight and I was able to step out of my somewhat sheltered area and to go exploring the IHOP campus.
Well, I found the Prayer Room and entered it as a resting place where I sort of got everything together again as I sat in a pew. Then I began to observe and to silently pray with much “thankfulness,” to the Lord.
Nonetheless, as I took refuge in this Prayer Room I was enthralled at what I was seeing and began to think that finally I have found another place in which “I could live and move and to have my being.”
I was once again in a place where I knew the “kingdom of God” could be found tangible.
You see, I had been living and visiting churches for the past two decades, but never having found a suitable atmosphere to where I felt as if I was in the presence or kingdom of God, as I did in the first community in which God had called me.
I mean, I walk in the place and there on the stage were talented musicians and singers who would do a two hour set and then be replaced by a completely new group which would come in and do another two hour stint and then be replaced by a completely even newer group of musicians and singers and on and on it went, as clockwork, seven days a week, twenty four hours a day, just nothing but “Anointed and Holy worship,” all day long every day, over and over.
Why, I thought, “Oh my “goodness gracious me,” to have found such a devoted group of people who could loved god, as obviously these young men and women did.
And to think, “they are sacrificing their lives for ME, and for all of those who they are supporting in Prayer who enter this building or tune into the web cast.”
The passage came to mind even, “No greater Love than this, lest a man lay his life down for another.”
“Oh Goodness Gracious Me,” again…
“Thank you Jesus for once again leading me to fellow believers who one day perhaps I can return the favor to all of these devoted Aint’s who are up on stage every day to bring you glory Lord.”
Well, I spent the day and the next day taking part in deep and sincere Prayer praying in tongues in the Prayer Room and then visiting the Sunday meeting which wasn’t bad worship for a Charismatic church.
Nonetheless, I have a unique way of Praying in the “Spirit,” that isn’t always conducive to many other Christians.
I simply go into a Prayer Room, find a seat or place out of the way to where I can have some type of privacy. Then I close my eyes, begin to pray in tongues and after a few minutes the Holy Spirit will anoint my prayer to where my voice will seem to change by taking on a different authority and generally will amplify or increase and then I am off and running into the ‘spirit world,’ hoping to have my ‘spirit man,’ lifted into the supernatural where I can then seek and often find God much closer than in the natural.
Also, when I attend public gatherings, I will always amplify my voice when singing, so it is just a tad higher from the loudness of what is coming from the overall speakers. This way it is just a reminder to myself that I am a part of the presence of God which is generally manifested in the assembly through the Holy Spirit.
You see, in my mind I see the Holy Spirit as that group on stage, and which is producing the Praise and the worship in the congregation, therefore, I always want my voice to be in tune or is connection with that “VOICE,” coming from the center of worship. Then I know that the Holy Spirit is in the room with me. Many times a person will get much resistance from certain traditionalist Christians who have only one concept of tongues.
“Hey, you can’t pray in tongues, or worship using supernatural gifts, why don’t you know that whenever a person speaks in tongues there has to be an interpretation.”
Wow, I did not know that, so do you speak in tongues?
“No, but when I was prayed for to receive the experience I did for maybe ten seconds, why?
I have the gift man, and I have become an expert theologian on the matter.”
Nevertheless, I just mention this because I am warning pastors, if you try to start a Prayer Room or begin Prayer Meetings, you are always going to have much resistance in the beginning.
So, what you need to do is to learn to silence those devils and they may even be coming from those who you have imagined to be your longest and most loyal Pew sitters or Board Members. But you need to make it clear to Satan we are going to have supernatural anointed Prayer in this house and I don’t care what any of you think.
You have to establish a stake in the ground where you have claimed the Land for the kingdom of God, and not for the critics who are always against a “supernatural atmosphere,” in a Prayer Room.
And so this is what I did in the Prayer Room in Kansas City, When I walked in every one knew that the devils were about to be stirred up.
That is another thing, there were many times where after serious Prayer I would have small visions of the aftermath in the Prayer Room. God would show me a vision of a battlefield in which you might find after the battle of Gettysburg or something. They were gross, but it was as if I was looking at a Civil War battlefield after the fact, and in my mind, it was as if I was seeing various limbs scattered about and dead bodies strewn about and the land just dirt, gravel and saddles and horses lying about. Canons overturned, it was just sad, but this is what the Lord would show me and I instinctively knew that it was as is in the “spiritual,” after there had been serious Prayer to God.
Thinking about it, this is why there ought to be a 24 hour Prayer room in the Pentagon where Prayer for the country can go up 24/7.
America could have great victories if they took a position that they are also fighting a “Spiritual Battle,” in the heavenlies and not just a natural Battle on Earth.
We need to acknowledge that we are the righteous ones, and in knowing that it ought to breed great confidence in our Prayers against those Nations which only wish to sow discord and murder toward their brothers.
So, anyway, after the weekend spent within this new community I had gone to meet with the recruiter at a trucking company in Kansas City.
The man overlooked most protocol and placed me into a truck for an eight-week training period. At the end of eight weeks, I was now an employed truck driver out of Kansas City.
Meanwhile, during the time that I was at IHOP investigating it, I had met a brother who had owned a house and had a huge heart. The man would take in individuals who were homeless or on the street and then let them stay in his house which was right in the Prayer Room vicinity.
As I had been asking around for possible options to settle in Grandview, I was told about the man. Well, I visited the guy and told him of my situation and how that I had just come from traveling all over the country in search of a good Christian based church, how that I just landed a job as a trucker out of KC, and how that I would need a situation where I could come and rest during my few days off a month in order to spend much time in the Prayer Room.
The guy had a heart of gold and in fact, he paid a great price for it, as many of those he was helping would screw him left and right. Nonetheless, he was a friend for a few years and his house was a household where I had met a number of other individuals who were loosely associated with the cult.
One day, some two years later the house had a home cooked meal for some reason and as I was able to fellowship with some who I had had very little relationship with I had heard them sharing with one another, as well as with myself.
Well, I couldn’t believe what I had been hearing in this small little get together one night at dinner. Nonetheless, there were one or two who were sharing and neither one was able to discern who Abraham was from Noah. I think they had made comment that Abraham had built an Ark, and Noah was the patriarch who invented the wheel or something?
The ignorance was palpable, but I had found that all over the community. When I first got there and went to a couple of meetings, I learned that Mike Bickle for something like ten years only preached from two books basically. The Book of Revelation and the Song of Songs, nonetheless, it was the Song of Songs which was his forte.
One of the first meetings that I heard from him was a lecture from the S of Songs.
I entered a gathering and as Mike began teaching on the S of Songs, it was as if the women were “swooning.”
Well, this was an issue I soon addressed on my web site and I ask, “How can a church or Stream have only taught from basically two books of the Bible.”
