THE THREE REALITIES OF END-TIME BELIEVERS

Your Loveworld *Praise-a-thon DAY 1
Dr. Mike Smalley

Colossians 1:12-13

Dr. Smalley talks about when he was younger, he wanted to go play with rocks in the creeks and his father told him to go and sleep; he sneaked out of the house and went, thinking he could play for a couple of hours then sneak back into the house; but to his amazement his father caught and gave him a good spanking.
This was the reality he faced then.

Your new reality when you’re born again is that you have passed from death, depression, poverty to life, abundance, health. This is the kingdom life; God is saying this is what I do and I’m bringing you into this reality. This is the reality of the new creature.

God is not panicking about the challenges on the earth. He isn’t calling an emergency meeting, or wondering how he’s going to handle the issues of the virus, vaccines or anything. He isn’t moved by it, and this is our reality. Our God is unmoved, that’s how we are.

1. Reality of no more weakness: Dr. Smalley talks about a woman who wanted to go for an interview and asked him to pray to God for strength to undergo the interview. He declined the request and asked her some questions, which she answered well. You don’t need to ask God for strength, but to thank God for the strength you have in Christ Jesus.

Many believers that are saved add Jesus to the mix; that is Jesus becomes like an addition to their lives, and not the core of their existence; they forget that when you are born again, you come into a brand new reality. We have a new normal. Sickness and disease are illegal in Jesus Christ. No weapon formed against you shall prosper.

Our new reality is that we walk in the strength of Jesus.

(He also narrates an experience he had in Africa where two girls who were possessed by demons were saved)

No more weakness is the normal life in the kingdom of God. I AM STRONG, I’M NOT TRYING TO BE SMALL, I AM STRONG! Strength has nothing to do with your feelings, stand on the word. There’s no weakness in Jesus, therefore there’s no weakness in you or anything that has to do with you.

2. No more retreat: we don’t go backwards anymore; we don’t keeping falling, we go from glory to glory, faith to faith, harvest to harvest, grace to grace. This principle doesn’t have any regional functioning. God doesn’t check the news headlines to know which principles work for you. No! As long as you work the word, it will work anywhere, in China, in India, anywhere.

He narrates a story where at the age of 14, he banished demons that were functioning in the house of medium, a palm reader. And a man came out of the house and asked him what he just did. God used him to advance the cause of the gospel.

It doesn’t matter what anyone says, the name of the Lord is a strong tower and his word will come to pass. They can’t pass enough legislation to stop us from doing all that God wants us to do anywhere in the world, because what happened with Philip in the book of acts, after he baptized the Ethiopian eunuch, can happen again because God is still God today. Jesus gave us the authority to enforce this and there isn’t going to be any retreat.

He narrates what happened at a crusade where a girl died while he was leading many to Christ, and he went down from the platform and picked her up and scream LIVE and after some minutes she lived and gave her life to Jesus.

The only part of the word that will work for you, is the one that you work.

Preachers today are being so scared to go out and preach, this is unacceptable. We have been giving platforms and opportunities to preach this gospel, that Paul didn’t have. And all the saints gone are watching us and looking out for what we will do with all these platforms. And we have to do things, because we can’t afford to retreat.

3. No more lack: 2 Peter 1:3 Do you need money, wisdom, friends, relationships for your life? Instead of begging God, walk in the new reality of your provisions. We are not the poor trying to be rich, we are the rich discovering everyday the extent of our wealth. God isn’t broke, so why should we be broke? Poverty is a curse. When you sow seeds, God becomes the enemy to your enemy.

The enemy has made religious stupidity of the earth, talking about how wrong it is for preachers to own private jets. That’s why we preach and save them, because it costs to care.

The more resources you have, the more good you can do.

Christians stay broke because they resent the rich. If you make fun of people who carry the anointing, the anointing will move away from you. If you honor the anointing it will hover over you.

What is prosperity? it is more than having Diamond rings and a Rolls Royce. Those are good; but it is having so much of God’s blessings on you that you can fulfill all that is required to do all that’s good for God and have enough leftovers to get yourself those things that your heart desires.

Deut 1:11; Ezekiel; Solomons temple dedication; these stories show that power of a thousand. God it seems has made a covenant with a 1000. Jesus’ millennium reign is a thousand years. A day before the Lord is like a thousand years.
No more lack is the new reality for the Christian.

He knows all your life, and knows all your needs, and if you trust him, he will tell all that you need to get those things done.

He talked about how sowed a thousand dollar seed and great miracles happened.

God never asks you to sow a seed unless there’s a big phenomenal harvest that’s coming. Heaven responds when a seed is planted on earth.
Today is going to be a bad day for the devil.

The seed that hell hates is the seed you sow in the moment that is ordained by God.
– Bishop Payne

God’s instructions will never be logical to your mind, but will be powerful enough for your faith to accomplish.

– Dr. Mike Smalley

The seed in your hand creates the future that he has promised.
