Covenants within Contracts
 
Last week God gave us a jolting revelation about evil spiritual covenants that are hidden within ordinary contracts. For example, when you sign a medical form agreeing to treatment, it can contain spiritual consequences you didn't authorize. Same with all those software programs where you agreed to whatever was there.
 
We have written a blog explaining the concept. Attached to it are 18 different audio clips with specific renunciations as needed. It has only been out for 48 hours but has already been accessed by about 10,000 people - far faster than any other product we have released.
 
Obviously this touched a deep spot in many of our Sapphire tribe as they have listened and posted it for others in their social networks.  Click here for a video about it.
 
If you have a mystery stronghold in your life that has resisted everything else, check out the blog.
 
Satanists
 
Opposition from the enemies of our King is nothing new. However, one particular cluster of Satanists has opposed us so vigorously and so consistently we have decided to take the battle to them.
 
Our mobilization point is on Facebook. If you would like to be part of this unusual strategy to push back darkness, we welcome you there to read about it and engage if it is your assignment.
 
Legitimacy

This message is well aged wine. It has been about 28 years since God lovingly and harshly kicked my major legitimacy crutches out from under me forcing me to discover the real treasure. I have been on a journey, deepening those early lessons ever since.
 
This is a CD album for everyone. Our relationship with God is unalterably colored by the concept of our legitimacy and the compensations we create for lack of it. The truths in this album will reshape your view of yourself and your view of God and give you tools for a richer, deeper walk with Father.
 
This was recorded in November in South Africa. It is available as a CD album from all our distributorships.
 
Neighbors
 
How God must laugh at our well-meaning prayers that He graciously scrambles. Our industrial complex has been notoriously unfriendly. The unit to the west of us, sharing a wall, was one of the worst.
 
I tolerated it for eight years, then decided that I was going to deal with this demonic stronghold and make this mess more functional. (Insert amusement in heaven.)
 
So we launched a prayer initiative when the unit went vacant and prayed in a new tenant - who is in a business that we would never want next door to us! That was a jolt, but we decided this was Father-filtered so we would embrace them and be good neighbors.
 
When they moved in, I discovered I didn't have a clue in the world what it looked like for me to be a good neighbor beyond taking a box of candy to them and welcoming them. I had a very clear picture of how all the other people in the complex were bad neighbors, but at the end of the day, I only knew how not to be bad - I had and have no idea how to be a good neighbor in an industrial complex.
 
THEN, I realized after less than a week of their being here that they have a culture of being really bad neighbors! They are violating the rules right, left and center, with blatant disregard for anyone else in the complex.
 
Now I am really impressed with my ignorance. What does it look like for me to be a really good neighbor to a really bad neighbor?! I have no idea, but that is my project for the indefinite future.
 
So when you get quite done laughing at me, pray for a starting point in Scripture. This is not an original problem. There are great answers in the Book. I have to find the picture in the Word so I can start fixing my ignorance.
High Impact Christians
 
Yesterday was the championship game for American football. Two teams went into the game with deep intentions to win. Only one did.
 
Big, focused, intentions are a prerequisite to making change. A viable strategy also matters.
 
In Christendom, we have an abundance of vision, an ocean of majestic intentions and a few lumps of results here and there. We tend to blame the devil for any shortfall and that is probably at least part right all the time.
 
However, there is also room for Noble Subjects to hone their strategy so that a higher number of intentions become reality.
 
On Saturday, February 20th I will be teaching a seminar at Alabaster House in Calgary aimed to help builders become more skilled.
