Join The Sanctified Rebels

You are a citizen of heaven sojourning on earth; and heaven is not known to be receiving instructions from the earth. Heaven does not submit to the circumstances on earth. It is the will of Heaven that is to be done on earth.

Matthew 6: 10

Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

When the angel of the Lord released the apostle from prison, he did not tell them to return to their houses or to go into hiding. He told them to go the temple and teach the people; in defiance of the order of the ruling council. Heaven supports sanctified rebellion.

Acts 5: 17-20

Then the high priest rose up, and all those who were with him (which is the sect of the Sadducees), and they were filled with indignation, and laid their hands on the apostles and put them in the common prison.  But at night an angel of the Lord opened the prison doors and brought them out, and said, Go, stand in the temple and speak to the people all the words of this life."

“...The heavens do rule” (Daniel 4: 26). Any voice that disregards heaven, that voice, will heaven disgrace. Heaven is out to undo whatever Satan had done, and is doing on earth. And you are God’s battle axe. You are Christ’s ambassador on earth and you have heaven’s mandate to enforce kingdom rule. You must not listen to any other voice except the voice of heaven.

     It supersedes the intimidating voice of economic, sociocultural and political circumstances. If heaven has said it, it must be done. This is the mentality that wins. You do not receive a mandate from heaven and then submit it to earthly circumstances before you implement the idea from heaven. You enforce the will of heaven on circumstances. No compromise.

Ecclesiastes 11: 4

He who observes the wind will not sow, And he who regards the clouds will not reap. He that observes circumstances will not go forward.

God did not leave you here to depend on, or to be controlled by circumstances. You are here to execute the mandate of heaven and you must do it by defying prevailing circumstances. If you insist on doing the will of God, circumstances will bow and give way. Since the Lord began to deal with me along this line, I have quit submitting our vision and budget to the numerical and economic size of the congregation I pastor; or to circumstances in the community where I minister. Now that my mind has grown bigger than my circumstances, I sense release to run with the vision of heaven. Without this kind of liberation, you will squeeze and frustrate God’s purpose for your life.

       If you give your attention to your circumstances, heaven will abandon you to your circumstances. If you detach from circumstances to obey the heavenly vision, heaven will be release to back you up against circumstances.

REBEL AGAINST THE FLESH

Romans 6: 12-14

 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace.

Victory over sin is not a matter that you leave to the Lord; the lord has told you what to do. Arise and take your stand. The Lord has delivered you from the power of Satan. Satan is still alive, but you are no more under his resist his incursions into your life; not just by pleading the blood; but by wielding the sword of the spirit, the word of God. Our Lord used it. The word of God is the constitution of the universe. Everything in heaven and earth is subject to it. You must take charge because the Lord has given you charge.

REBEL AGAINST SOME THOUGHT PATTERNS

You are either limited or limited or liberated by the way you think. You are propelled and controlled by your mentality. Our world is full of impossibility, negative thinkers. They tell you this and that is not possible. You can’t do this or that and so on. You must break away from every thought pattern that suppresses you from being what God wants you to be .you must free yourself from “everyone is doing it; that is the only way”. You must resist the pull to the popular side. You must break lose from good luck- bad luck mentality. You must rebel against shinning in a little corner. Those who want to shine in a little corner end up not shinning at all. What God says is, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify you father which is heaven” Do not limit yourself because of money, or people connection. None of these things can stop you from becoming who God wants you to be. The greatest limitation takes place in the mind; and this is why you need the word of God to set your mentality free. All it takes to make progress in life s a freed mentality. You cannot grow higher than your mentality.

John 8: 32-33

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free."

REBEL AGAINST THE FEAR OF MAN

To the extent that you fear any man, to that extent, you will not be yourself when he is around. The fear of man is unhealthy and ungodly God made you to be unique but you cannot become them person God wants you to be by submitting to the fear of man. It leads to pretense, compromise and falsehood. Be the best man God wants you to be and if anyone is offended, let him appeal to God. God made you special and loves you the way you are. You must arise to stand tall and straight. Stop complaining about giants; you are not dwarfed. Stand by your convictions and let the rest of the world go hay-wire. Under God, you must not tremble before the presence of any man, wealthy or poor, strong or weak, famous or obscure. Men pleasers are never found in God’s honor list.

REBEL AGAINST INTIMIDATING CIRCUMSTANCES

Nothing happens until it is made to happen. Whatever you tolerate, you will squat with. There are certain circumstances in your life that want you to accept them as permanent and unchangeable. You have got to handle them irreligiously and without gentleness at all. It could be poverty, smallness or sickness. Do not let your circumstances interpret the word of god for you. Do not let circumstances. Faith is rebellion against the voice of circumstances. Circumstances must not circumscribe you. You can stretch you’re withered hand and stand on your impotent feet in obedience to the word of faith. Your circumstance is not your lord; Jesus is the lord! Arise and shine, you are a sanctified rebel. The heavens do rule.
