Breakdowns: Seeing Possibilities Instead of Limitations

/in , , , /by

Breakdowns are often associated with failure and can be difficult to navigate. However, they are a chance to rebuild and reinvent ourselves. As Christians, we can turn to our faith and wisdom to help us turn breakdowns into breakthroughs. We can seek the prophetic word and receive personal prophecy to guide us in making decisions that align with God’s will for our lives.

Looking for Causes

Breakdowns do not exist in a vacuum. They are a declaration that something is missing or incomplete. We often look for reasons we fail to live up to our concept of success, resulting in a disempowering perception of ourselves. Rather than seeing mistakes as a “failure of being,” we should see breakdowns as a chance to rebuild and reinvent ourselves.

Breaking Down to Build

Breakdowns often push us to step outside the usual constraints of our circumstances and work toward a goal or objective that we may not fully know how to achieve. Furthermore, they take away things that may have worked for us in the past, forcing us to confront our present circumstances in all their immediacy. Finally, this transforms how we relate to our lives and opens up possibilities and opportunities in every direction.

Breakdowns and Breakthroughs: Navigating Life’s Unexpected Events

/in , , , /by

Life is full of positive and negative, unexpected events that we call breakdowns and breakthroughs. While breakthroughs are seen as progress, breakdowns are often associated with failure and can be challenging to navigate. As Christians, we can rely on our faith and wisdom to help us navigate life’s unexpected events and turn breakdowns into breakthroughs.

The Negative Side of Breakdowns

Breakdowns manifest as unexpected setbacks, missed opportunities, bad relationships, and more. They represent a significant difference between what we expected to happen and what occurred. When we associate our identity with the feeling of failure, we can compound the negative feelings we experience during a breakdown. Finally, this can lead to frustration, anger, and a lack of focus on what we can correct in the future.

Turning Breakdowns into Breakthroughs

Christians believe God can use all things for our good, even breakdowns. By turning to Him in faith and wisdom, we can navigate life’s unexpected events and turn breakdowns into breakthroughs. Moreover, we can seek the prophetic word and receive personal prophecy to guide us in making decisions that align with God’s will for our lives.

The Key to Maintaining Personal Integrity: Honesty, Sympathy, Empathy, and More

/in , , /by

In today’s society, maintaining personal integrity can be challenging. With numerous distractions and temptations around us, it’s easy to lose sight of who we really are and what we stand for. However, according to Barbara Killinger, certain key psychological character traits are associated with integrity. These traits, such as honesty, empathy, and self-control, can help us maintain our personal integrity and align our actions, behaviors, and desires with our identity.

Compassion and a Holistic View

To raise our level of integrity, we need to have compassion and deliberately surface the personality traits that we possess the least of personally. This means that rational individuals need to bring out the emotional side of their personality, while emotional types need to balance their feelings with their rational, thinking side. The key is to have a holistic view of the situation and make a decision that considers the needs of all the people who would be affected.

Knowing God’s Will and the Prophetic Word

As Christians, we can also rely on knowing God’s will and the prophetic word to guide us in making decisions that align with our values and principles. At “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders,” you’ll learn how to tap into the prophetic word and receive personal prophecy to guide you in your leadership journey. Join us at www.prophecology.com to register for this event and take the first step towards aligning your actions, behaviors, and desires with your identity and maintaining your personal integrity.

Aligning Your Actions with Your Identity

Remember that integrity implies a sense of wholeness or completion. God has imprinted us with a unique blueprint, making us specially designed for different purposes. We must align our actions, behaviors, and desires with our identity to maintain our integrity. This means understanding who we are and making decisions that align with our values and principles. Doing this allows us to live a more authentic and complete version of ourselves and maintain our integrity.

Maintaining personal integrity is essential for living a fulfilling and meaningful life. By cultivating traits such as honesty, sympathy, empathy, and self-control, we can raise our level of integrity and align our actions, behaviors, and desires with our identity. We can also rely on knowing God’s will and the prophetic word to guide us in making decisions that align with our values and principles.

Early Warning Signs of a Loss of Integrity: What You Need to Know

/in , , , /by

Detecting the Loss of Integrity Early: Warning Signs to Watch Out For

Integrity is a vital aspect of our lives, guiding us to make wise moral, ethical, and spiritual choices. However, in today’s society, it’s becoming increasingly challenging to maintain one’s integrity, given the numerous distractions and temptations that surround us. We hear of high-profile individuals, celebrities, and even preachers caught in embezzlement and sex scandals. It’s a sad state of affairs, but is there a way to detect the loss of integrity early? Let’s explore this topic and discover some warning signs that can help us detect a loss of integrity before it’s too late.

The Desire to Perform Well: A Seemingly Beneficial Trait

One of the earliest warning signs of losing integrity is the desire to perform well. It’s a seemingly beneficial trait that can lead to extreme behaviors such as perfectionism and workaholism. While being responsible and having ideals are good qualities, too much of them can be detrimental. Workaholics can become resentful, curmudgeonly, and withdraw from interacting with others meaningfully. This can cause an erosion of empathy, compassion, and physical health, leading to a loss of integrity.

Perfectionism and Arrogance

Perfectionists, on the other hand, often feel superior and entitled, leading to arrogance and entitlement. This attitude fosters a loss of integrity and can cause people to feel exempt from the standards that apply to others. They may become obsessively fixated on a thought, idea, or action, which significantly threatens one’s integrity.

Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders

As Christians, we believe that wisdom and God’s will can guide us in wise decisions that honor our moral, ethical, spiritual, and artistic values and principles. At “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders,” you’ll learn how to tap into the prophetic word and receive personal prophecy to guide you in your leadership journey. Join us at www.prophecology.com to register for this event and take the first step towards a more integrated life.

Does this sound like you?

Detecting the loss of integrity early is critical for maintaining a balanced and fulfilling life. It’s essential to watch out for warning signs such as workaholism, perfectionism, and obsession, which can lead to a loss of empathy, compassion, and physical health. Do you see yourself struggling with this? Reach out, and we can tap into the prophetic word and receive personal prophecy to guide us in wise decisions that honor our values and principles. Let’s strive to maintain our integrity and be the change we want to see in the world.

Discovering the True Source of Superhuman Power

/in , , , /by

Understanding the Spiritual Body

The spiritual body is an essential concept in Christian theology. It is the eternal, non-physical form of the self that transcends the limitations of the mortal body. In the spiritual body, we are unified with the divine and experience an eternal existence beyond our physical lifetime.

Personal Prophecy and the Spiritual Body

Christians believe that the soul is immortal and retains its identity after death. The soul has an eternal blueprint for the resurrected organic body, which will be brought back to life by divine power. This allows for the final perfection of all human beings on the last day and the ultimate destruction of those deserving of eternal damnation.

Indeed, personal prophecy is essential in aligning our spiritual bodies with God’s plan. Through personal prophecy, we can receive prophetic words that speak directly to our situation and provide clarity and direction. These words can give us the confidence and assurance to move forward in our lives and fulfill our divine purpose.

Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders

To learn more about personal prophecy and how it can help you align with God’s plan, I am excited to invite you to “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders.” This event features prophetic ministers who will share insights and guidance on moving forward in your life with confidence and purpose.

As we embrace the divine plan and align ourselves with God’s purpose for our lives, we can experience the power of the spiritual body and the transformative effects of personal prophecy. Let us continue to seek spiritual growth and understanding, and may we always be open to receiving prophetic words that will help us fulfill our divine destiny.

The Supermind and Spiritual Dynamics

Charles Fillmore’s teachings on the supermind provide a unique insight into the spiritual dynamics that underpin our existence. He believes that the supermind is the dynamic power within us that connects us to the divine and allows us to tap into the spiritual realm.

Moreover, Fillmore asserts that every nation’s men and women have sporadically displayed this supermind throughout history. He notes that the supermind is often shrouded in mystery and religious symbolism. However, with the dawn of Enlightenment, this obscurantism was replaced by a new understanding of the spiritual dynamics of spirit.

This new understanding has disrupted old mechanical atomic theories. It allowed Christian metaphysicians to better understand the metaphysical dynamics of Spirit. As we continue to explore these concepts, we can gain more significant insights into the spiritual body and the transformative power of personal prophecy.

The Soul is Immortal

/in , , , /by

IDENTITY AND THE SOUL 

As Christians, we believe that the soul is immortal and retains its identity after death, whether in physical union with the body or temporarily separated, awaiting resurrection on the last day. The soul possesses an eternal blueprint for the resurrected organic body, which will be brought back to life by divine power. This belief empowers us to envision the ultimate perfection of all mankind on the last day and the final destruction of those who deserve eternal agony.

Body and Soul

The divine plan necessitates the relationship of body and soul and the realization of spiritual essence inside us. We were created in the image and likeness of God, which implies we have something eternal and flawless within us. The spiritual body, in contrast to the mortal, physical body, is eternal in the heavens and was not created by human hands. This spiritual energy pervades everything and will never be depleted.

Personal Prophecy

Personal prophecy empowers us with insights and guidance that align us with God’s plan for our lives. Prophetic words speak directly to our situation, providing clarity and direction to confidently move forward and fulfill our divine purpose. That’s why I’m thrilled to invite you to “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders.”

At the event, prophetic ministers teach you how to align with God’s intention for your life and go forward with assurance and direction. Don’t waste this incredible chance to find peace and security in knowing God’s will for your life.

.The divine plan relies on recognizing our soul and spiritual substance. Personal prophecy is the key to unlocking divine insights and guidance to align with God’s plan for our lives. Join us at “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders” and learn from prophetic ministers. Gain the confidence and assurance needed to embrace the divine plan and align yourself with God’s purpose for your life. Check out everything that will happen at www.prophecology.com.

Restoration and Resurrection

/in , , , /by

The Power of Resurrection

As we celebrated Holy Week 2023, culminating with Resurrection Sunday, we are reminded of the fundamental doctrine of the resurrection and its significance in the Christian faith. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the cornerstone of our faith and provides hope for our eternal salvation. Understanding the meaning of resurrection and how it applies to our lives is essential. Resurrection is about restoring our mind and body to its original, eternal state as created in the image and likeness of God. This affirms that every one of us possesses something eternal and perfect, just like our Creator.

During this holy week season, embracing the principle of resurrection is crucial to align with God’s purpose and plan for our lives. One practical way to do this is through personal prophecy, which involves receiving a prophetic message from God through a prophetic ministry. Personal prophecy can give us insights and direction to help us progress and realize our divine purpose. The prophetic word can give us the confidence and assurance to move forward with a sense of purpose and direction.

Even after celebrating Easter Sunday, let us continue to reflect on the significance of the resurrection and what it means for us as believers. Let us embrace the hope and promise of eternal life through Christ’s resurrection. And let us not forget the power of personal prophecy, which can help us align with God’s plan for our lives and move forward confidently in our purpose. To gain prophetic insights for tomorrow’s leaders, consider registering for “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders” at www.prophecology.com.

Why is it important to me?

The stories of Jesus and Lazarus, which reveal God’s power to restore life, demonstrate the importance of the resurrection. In these stories, we observe that resurrection involves resurrecting a dead body, which means that a person resumes normal bodily functions such as breathing, moving around, eating, etc.
However, resurrection entails more than simply returning a dead body to life; it entails returning the mind and body to its original, eternal state. This necessitates aligning ourselves with God’s purpose and plan, which can be challenging but highly beneficial.
Personal prophecy can bring insights and guidance to help us connect with God’s purpose for our lives. We can hear prophetic words that speak specifically to our situation and bring clarity and guidance through personal prophecy. These prophetic words can give us the assurance and confidence to continue forward in our lives and accomplish our divine purpose.
We invite you to our upcoming event, “Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders,” if you want to learn more about personal prophecy and how it may help you move forward. This event will feature prophetic clergy who will provide insights and advice on aligning your life with God’s plan and moving forward with confidence and purpose.

Breakdowns from the Lack of Integrity

/in /by

Integrity lies, doing what one speaks; speaking what one does.

K. Soni

The integrity of the upright guides them,
but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.

Proverbs 11:3 NRSV

THE IMPORTANCE OF INTEGRITY

Integrity is critical in all aspects of life, and it is the foundation for any trustworthy relationship. Whether in business, personal relationships, or spiritual connections, we all desire partners who are honest and reliable. Trusting individuals with unwavering integrity attracts wealth, prosperity, and support. The opposite is also true – people who try to deceive others and cut corners inevitably fail in the long run, and their relationships fall apart.

BUILDING TRUST

Building trust is an essential aspect of any successful relationship, and it begins with integrity. This means staying true to your word, being honest in all dealings, and taking responsibility for your actions. If you want to establish trust with someone, you must show them that you are dependable. When you make a promise, keep it, and if you can’t fulfill it, be upfront and honest about why. This approach will go a long way in building trust and establishing long-lasting relationships.

THE VALUE OF HONESTY

Honesty is a rare commodity today, but it is essential for creating trustworthy relationships. When you’re honest with others, they can trust you to do what you say you’ll do and can count on you to act in their best interests. By contrast, deception creates an atmosphere of suspicion, and people will be hesitant to enter into any relationship with someone they don’t trust.

FUTURE FORWARD: PROPHETIC INSIGHTS FOR TOMORROW’S LEADERS

The Dishonest Way of Getting Things

/in , , /by

Easy Money

P.T. Barnum, himself a figure noted for pulling the wool over the eyes of his circus audiences, wrote that dishonest money was, in fact, the most challenging way to make money in the world.

What did Barnum mean with this counterintuitive piece of advice? After all, the phrase “easy money” has been ingrained into our culture to imply a source of money that did not go through the usual channels. Many confidence tricksters use the innate trusting nature of human beings to separate their poor marks from their money or property.

Our society is so used to the idea of “easy come, easy go” that the idea of making an honest living has taken on a passe, old-fashioned image as if diligent, hard work was a waste of time.

But Barnum insists that this way is the hardest way to earn money. Why? The answer is surprisingly simple.

Preserving Your Integrity

“If it’s too tough to get money honestly, gain it dishonestly,” Barnum writes.

Integrity is a key component of life that everyone needs to have. It is a quality that speaks volumes about a person’s character and is something that is deeply valued in society. Without integrity, life becomes difficult, and it becomes impossible to build strong and long-lasting relationships with people. Dishonesty is a moral turpitude that disqualifies a person from economic interactions, which makes it all the more important to develop and maintain one’s integrity.

 The Consequences of Lack of Integrity

A person who lacks integrity is not trusted, and it becomes difficult for them to succeed in any financial, emotional, or spiritual relationship. While they may be wealthy, they are socially isolated and unable to form meaningful relationships with people. Their lack of principle limits them from achieving their full potential, and people are less likely to work with or associate with them.

 The Benefits of Integrity

On the other hand, a person with strong character and unquestioned integrity will always be a sought-after partner. They will have their community resources at their disposal, and people will be willing to work with them, knowing they can be trusted. Their integrity creates connectivity and cooperation, which cannot be bought. This makes it essential for every person to develop and maintain their integrity, especially those in leadership positions.

 Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leaders

Zoe Ministries presents Future Forward: Prophetic Insights for Tomorrow Leader, an upcoming event that aims to help individuals gain insight and direction into their future. The event will feature prophetic ministers sharing their wisdom and prophetic words, providing attendees with the confidence and assurance they need to move forward in their lives and fulfill their divine purpose.

Restoring Integrity

/in , , /by

The Challenge for Church Leadership & Integrity

It is a difficult time for the church, especially for church leaders. The public failure of a church leader can have disastrous effects on the church’s members. Unfortunately, many church leaders have not taken responsibility for restoring their own and the church’s integrity. As a result, members are left to rationalize their leaders’ unethical behavior or abandon their faith altogether.

Restoration Procedures and Lack Thereof

Some denominations have established specific restoration procedures to combat this trend. However, many independent churches lack clear restoration processes to restore a fallen leader that the congregation formerly looked up to and trusted with their spiritual lives. The restoration process can vary depending on the church, with some leaders refusing to apologize and continuing in ministry without any consequences.

The Image of Christ

Leaders who refuse to take responsibility for their actions are detrimental to the image of Jesus Christ’s church, making it seem like certain people are above God’s judgment. Other church leaders may try to protect the fallen leader or leave the church altogether. However, some strive to restore their own integrity, relying on their spiritual skills to rebuild their credibility and respect.

The Apostle Paul’s Warnings

The apostle Paul warned that overseers must be above reproach and that those who sin should be reprimanded openly. However, he also taught that restoration should be conducted in a spirit of gentleness and humility. Anyone overseeing the rehabilitation of a fallen spiritual leader must also be cautious and avoid the temptation to fall themselves.

Integrity and Integration

/in /by

Becoming Complete

Integrity comes from the same root word as integrate, which means “complete.” Hawaii joined the US as the 50th state. Integrity makes a person entire. Integrity means living what they say. Even a church congregation might become morally bankrupt without integrity. In the 1960s, theologians denounced the “Death of God,” a radical movement that held that belief in God is impossible or useless in the secular world.

The Death of God movement, also known as the thanatology, explains secularity and the decline of conventional religion. William Blake, a 19th-century poet, and mystic, saw the crucifixion of Jesus Christ as a kenosis or self-emptying of God, culminating in God’s death. The Protestant theologians’ Death of God movement signified society’s growing dissatisfaction with religion and a move away from conventional values and customs. The 1970s brought the Charismatic movement and fundamentalism to the Christian church, but not before bringing existential anxiety, cynicism, spiritual doubt, and moral rot in American culture.

Some critics attribute the period’s sexual promiscuity, violence, and anti-establishment rhetoric to the Death of God movement. Modern moral relativism makes morality and truth a question of taste. The Death of God movement was paralleled by situation ethics and ethical relativism. Situation ethics, according to Bishop John A. T. Robinson and Professor Joseph Fletcher, holds that no single moral philosophy can address all situations and that each person must decide what is proper.

Situation ethics philosophers and the Death of God movement argue that integrity has withdrawn from the modern world because modern man has been too focused on obsolete mythology and not enough on quickly changing situations. Modern man has no compass or bearings since God is absent. This states that we all follow our birth religion, a cultural dice roll. The godlessness and secularism that followed this movement is understandable. The entire Christian community would need to be restored to its prophetic identity.

The Discernment of Sin

/in /by

Spiritual Discernment

So, how could a leader who has failed morally, ethically, monetarily, or even theologically be restored? Pastor Larry Stockstill suggests a procedure that begins with the spiritual discernment of sin (Gal. 6:1). Prophetic discernment is not the same as sin detection. Some sins, for example, are regarded as lapses or indiscretions rather than deep-seated moral failures. An indiscretion may necessitate discipline, whereas moral loss may be terrible enough to disqualify a leader permanently. To enable spiritual overseers to recognize their sins, the fallen leader must answer the following eight questions:

  1. How deeply ingrained and long-lasting is the sin?
  2. Has the individual taken long-term steps to conceal his sin?
  3. Did the leader publicly deny his transgression, losing all credibility with his followers as the proof became unmistakable? Even in politics and sports, we’ve seen that the worst offense associated with a scandal is a public denial of wrongdoing followed by an embarrassing confession when the evidence becomes too heavy.
  4. Is he cynical about the gravity of his sin, dismissing it as typical or, at worst, marginal behavior?
  5. Is he willing to end every lousy relationship?
  6. Has he justified his sin by blaming others and portraying himself as a victim?
  7. Does he manipulate scripture to justify his behavior or label those who disagree with him as “Pharisaical” or “legalistic”?
  8. Has he shown regret?

A Willingness to Repent

Repentance must entail a commitment to renounce and forsake the sin and a willingness to surrender and submit to the demands of authority, all without changing authorities during the restoration process.
