Hello scattered family and friends in Messiah! I hope you all are doing well! When I wrote: Ambassador for the King part 1 & 2 this is the general message I was aiming to get across to people. We the mispacha of Elohim DO NOT BELONG TO AMERICA or any worldly nation/kingdom. Brethren we need to "come out of her" Out of the cultural norms of America and back to the culture of HIS KINGDOM. Yes, this does include the culture of: Shabbat and Appointed Times...of keeping the Commandments and walking in love as an ambassador for Messiah. But it is so much more! As believers in Messiah we are here on ASSIGNMENT as AMBASSADORS of a kingdom and on behalf of THE KING : We are therefore {ambassadors} for Messiah, as though God were making His appeal through us. We beg you on behalf of Messiah, be reconciled to God. II Corinthians 5:20 TLV This world is not our home, this culture is NOT our culture. The kingdoms of this earth are not our kingdoms.... If you are entangled with the back and forth of highlights of this broken country or world, LET IT GO. LIFT YOUR EYES "I think the time has come that we fully follow in the footsteps of Abraham, that we leave our nation behind rather than trying to rearrange the deck-chairs on the Titanic, and really live as foreigners and strangers until we fully realize the hope of the arrival of our King and the Kingdom of God. One of the main reasons the early Christians overcame under the harshest circumstances is that in their minds and hearts they truly left their homeland and lived as strangers and pilgrims looking by faith for Kingdom of God. This is a completely different mindset than modern American Evangelical Christianity which has been merged with patriotism. “Now the LORD had said to Abram: 'Get out of your country, From your family And from your father's house, To a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you And make your name great; And you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, And I will curse him who curses you; And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed." So Abram departed as the LORD had spoken to him, ..." (Gen. 12:1-4) "'By faith' Abraham, having been called, obeyed, migrating to the place which he was expecting to receive as the inheritance. And he left not knowing where he was going. 'By faith' he lodged in the Land of promise as a foreigner, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise. For he was waiting for the city having foundations, whose designer and fashioner is God." (Hebrews 11:8-10) IMO, we have reached the point of no return as a nation and Christians need to brace for it. The sooner we adopt the mindset of "strangers and pilgrims" living benignly in a foreign land, the better it will be for us. And it will keep us focused on "the hope set before us." That is a hard pill to swallow for the majority of Evangelical Christians. But the road to the "Promised Land" and the Kingdom of God goes through the wilderness following in the footsteps of Abraham by faith. The first step in that path definitely involves leaving our homeland behind in our hearts and minds, (Heb. 11:8-16)." - written by retired pastor See: But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the praises of the One who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light.Once you were “not a people,” but now you are “God’s people.” You were shown “no mercy,” but now you have been shown “mercy.” I Peter 2:9-12 TLV " We are a people, a priesthood, a HOLY nation, a people for God's own possession---" This is not a loose use of words it is an identity that YHWH's people are beginning to wake-up to slowly as they come back into Torah covenant and keeping His commandments. Remember whom you are and to Whom you belong. You are an AMBASSADOR, a representative for the KING and kingdom. #Riseup #ambassadorforMessiah #KingdomCulture #Kingdomovereverything #allegiancetoOne IN THE WORLD BUT NOT OF THE WORLD RELATED BLOG POSTS:
