  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

<SPAN id=postcolor><B>To go to the next level of entering into what The Father has shown us..For our region...is trial and error. Many times we experiment in finding exactly what it is that God has called us to....and to whom...You and I are not sent to every body. There is a region that is assigned to us. In that region is where we come to reality in God's word that we have not seen before. If The Father has put in us a gift of the Five fold...Then He will place you in the Body as He wants too....Not as we want too.

Many times are the fears with in and with out---But understand,,,,it is a process that lasts for a moment....Not a life time. Understanding our regional tasks and calling helps us to not be drawn away from the prime directive in our region.

Deu 3:4 And we took all his cities at that time, there was not a city which we took not from them, threescore cities, all the region of Argob, the kingdom of Og in Bashan.

Deu 3:13 And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, [being] the kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob, with all Bashan, which was called the land of giants.

1Ki 4:13 The son of Geber, in Ramothgilead; to him [pertained] the towns of Jair the son of Manasseh, which [are] in Gilead; to him [also pertained] the region of Argob, which [is] in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brasen bars:

1Ki 4:24 For he had dominion over all [the region] on this side the river, from Tiphsah even to Azzah, over all the kings on this side the river: and he had peace on all sides round about him.

God knows regions better than any one...God knows the strongholds and exactly where every strong hold is. He knows exactly what we will have to do in order to pull it down and bind it....and strip it.

A army that is coming together....for regional conflict must be a army that realizes it's weakness and it's a strength. Study history...

One of the major break downs in leader ship is this---

Called called a group to lead---Not one person.
That is why it is called five-fold....But let's not stop there. God gave to the Body many ministry Gifts....They are called the sheep...

Sheep long for true sheperds...Sheep will stay in a pen if they are trained too....God never built a pen for sheep....He never gave them tap water to drink....he never bought bagged food to feed them with...and he never had them to lay down in hay that has been cut and dried out....Read pslams 23--

So we must under stand that The Father wants you and i to know that the reason some regions are dry and some are wet with Heaven's dew...is because of leader ship failure to reconize there region...What!

Every region has a strong hold of demonic influence....every region also has a group of God called...God ordainded Five fold.
The enemy will do everything He can to keep this group from coming together.

If we know that the Lord is saying this is your region.....Then also know the Lord is saying....You gonna have much conflict!

If the Lord is saying...Blessings are coming to you...material blessings....Then know that you are gonna have the chance to lie cheat and steal....If the Lord is saying By my Stripes you are healed...Then Know that the enemy will use every whip He can to cause you to be sick...

If the Lord has given you a specfic tasks---then know that doors are going to open to try to lead you away from that tasks...Why...God is testing us...Why...because if facing fire can not change your mind....nobody will...and it is that fire that defines your purpose....and refines your faith....and it takes that kind of faith to stand........But go to God's word and study for your self...You see if we are gonna take a place and plant...a seed of faith for the generation to come...It will take a real understanding of what we are to be doing....not shadow boxing.....Do we know why we are not satified....We are settling for the mundane.....Victory is always sweeter when you have fought for it....Victory is always sweeter when you know you have people around you that have fought along side of you....for a region.

Forget about what you did yesterday---Forget about what you are going to do tomorrow...Some of what we go thru is from past failures and secret short comings...SO!

I tell you who is getting wounded---two kinds of people...
Those that are causing trouble by always finding something wrong with every body else....But they never do nothing wrong....those that always have a prophetic word for every body else....but never recieved any correction from any one.....Those that talk about everything God is wanting to do....But they never enter into anything that God is wanting to do...They very subtle like seem very secure when in reality they are very insecure....They only have one group of people they affliate themselves with and listen too....

While the other of the two is fighting to stay in one place....affliates them selve with all christians,notice i said affliate.....not hang out with-,,,holds to the course and at times seems left alone.....but is always on the rise of building group foundation and group understanding...group vision...

people of God....You are not going to be able to take a region with-out the apostle and prophet---They are specific equipers of stratigic kingdom expansion in advancing against the gates of hell in a region...Apostles and prophets are God ordained men and women who have had there deep places of deep agony....you may have a gift of discernment or prophecy or discernment of spirits.....That does not make you a five fold....But you are no less importent....Please understand that......You are needed so much in this hour of reformation of the church.....It may take 20 years to reform the church the way God is wanting it to be established and if you and i do not know our place in this hour....and the gift the Lord has given to us to profit....you and i are of no value to God..we are noisey gongs and clanging symbols......Does he still love us.....Of Course...Will he still meet our need ....of Course he will..He rains his goodness on the wicked and the rightouse..I know when God is really Loving on me....by the chastisment i get....that is true blessing....

We must align our selve with the ones that God has called into leadership in a specific region if we all are going to see the reality of real fellowship and really experience the annionted break thrus we are wanting.....

If God set them in leadership positions &nbsp;....and we do not respect His chooseing....then we have a problem with God....Not with the leaders...and you know what? We are robbing our own self of a blessing that can only come thru submission...

You and i will never know what we could have had in our region.

Remember; you are something when you can cast a devil out---But you are really some thing when the devil can not cast you out--we can always see better when we get our eyes off of our self...

Saints God is rasing up a truly functional church....of leaders and elders and deacons..mature people begats mature ministry.....and your gift to the body is no less importent..Just do not give up.....Fight with everything that is in you to allow God the liberty of Loving on you....I know that it is hard and I know that you have desires to participate in building God's kingdom..... allow your self the room for mistakes....(you will have some) and do not be hard on your self....the prophets right now are bringing out very many powerful words ....these prophetic words will bring forth the Apostles in many dry places that you and i are living in...It is ok to be a human being and to have feelings...it is ok to make mistakes....But it is not ok to give up on God...I charge you in the name of Jesus....DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT. ;) </B>
