"Living in Ecstacy"




When you look across the body of Christ today, one would have to admit that across the board, you do not see "Joy" as being one of the biggest and most outspoken characteristics within it. Why???? In our new covenant through Jesus we have an overflowing, neverending, heavenly-holy, Joy that no one else gets to have!!! But for some reason, people are afraid to be happy and joyful. Instead, I see absolutely pre-meditated serious and sterness and even depression that people call "being Holy". We thank God for his new covenant and freedom and grace, but dont live in it, we would rather live in old covenant curses and laws rather than new covenant blessings and free promises!!! We as humans pretty much complicate everything we touch by relying on our own understanding!! Jesus became the curse to take away ALL curses and restored to us believers the original realities from the very beginning!!! This is the will of God for all children!!The kingdom is made of these three things acording to scriptures, peace, righteousness, and JOY in the holy ghost!!! Two thirds of the kingdom is happiness!!!!! Peace and JOY in the Holy Ghost!!!! the other part is righteousness (which is not by our doings at all, since christ made us righteous) so the entire kingdom being manifest on earth is basically not off our works(your efforts are not necessary) but off our peace and joy!!! so... Dont worry, BE HAPPY!!! CELEBRATE THE BLISS OF HEAVEN!! DRINK BY FAITH THE NEW WINE OF GODS LOVE!!!!!! GULP! GULP! GULP!!!!!! BAMMM!!! I wanna also share some stuff from the heart of John Crowder (a revivalist) with you guys!!! ( You wre created for pleasure, and nothing else will do. There is a yearning inside every one of you to know the source of pleasure, who is ecstacy incarnate. At the core of all mankind, is a desperate craving formed by God himself which only He can satisfy!! There is a desperation inside that will settle for nothing less, because everything else is shakable,un reliable, and hollow. All else is "vanity of vanities". Today the world is in birth pangs, being shaken from a natural perception of things observable and awakened to a heightened awareness of things unseen. We are now being awakened to the GLORY REALM- the atmosphere of God's tangible, manifest presence. The spiritual realm of Heaven is a GREATER reality than the known, material, physical universe. One might say it is a meta-reality, for the spiritual always affects and overrides the physical.(I wish Christians would believe this truth) Things which are shifted in the Spirit bring direct consequence to the natural realm. these are exciting times as God shifts our concept of realit. He is preparing us for a phoenomenal-angelic encounters,visitations of jesus,bizzare miracles,and multitudes of souls coming into the kingdom. the thing which most needs shifting today is US! God will not have an end time church that is depressed,cynical,doubting,religious,or powerless. He will have a church that lives and breathes from a heavenly vantage point, even while their feet still touch the earth. The church will be filled with JOY,Faith,Intimacy,and Power like no previous generation!!! In this day God will not have a "purpose" driven church, but He will have for himself a "SPIRIT" driven church- an intimate bride who is moved and motivated by the cloud of His presence. he is looking for lovers, not do-gooders. A people who are enraptured by His fragrance and lost in the eternal weight of His GOODNESS!!!!!! Like Adam, you were created to experience heaven and earth simultaneously. God made heaven and earth together in the beginning so that we would explore them both in interwoven harmony!! On the cross the veil of Christs flesh was torn reopeniong the heavens and reversing the curse that was on humanity. At the cross, the pleasures of Eden were restored to us. The lifestyle of transcendance, between heaven and earth, is the very inheritance for which jacob wrestled the angel. Jesus is our promised land. he is the land of inheritance flowing with milk and honey. This land is a free gift of grace, but it must be taken and occupied. This is the way of the realm of the Spirit. "the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence but the violent take it by force" Even taking the kingdom is a walk of grace. so lets explore and learn the original paths of eden. nothing more than the BLISS of god. lets get into the heavenlies and not complicate it any more. Let your mind take you there, since its now Christs mind!!!! Hang out with jesus, fell the acceptance and joy of Papa's goodness!!!!!! watch the angels, talk to people, hang out, Study.. then do all of it on earth and let this shape your life in accordance to the word of god. Drink the new wine. the way we drink the new wine is simple, We drink by faith. this is an ecstatic journey of joy and love for and from God. The only way is through Christ, so lets go and allow heaven to shape us and let the fire of passion in our own secret garden ignite a mighty wildfire of revival in the nations today!!!!!!

IN JESUS NAME


In JESUS name. Now this is a phrase that every christian says when they pray,some use it even when they are just tryin to make their statement stronger! But what do you think would happen if instead of using it as a phrase to end you prayers with, you actually did what Jesus actually meant when he said,"ask IN MY NAME". You see, he wasnt giving us an ending to a prayer . This phrase is actually the essence of who we really are as believers that are standing "IN CHRIST". We are "in" HIM and every bit of His name is our new identity as new creatures! We are no longer just "human" we are indeed, "new creations" or as I call us, "superhuman" . We are supernatural, freed from old covenant curses, and ushers of heaven on Earth!! It is the Matthew 6:10 stuff again folks!!! BAM!! BAMMM!! BAMM!! and all of this is only IN CHRIST or IN WHO HE IS, because as He is .......SO ARE WE!!!!!!!! JOINT HEIRS WITH THE SAME EVERYTHING THAT JESUS HAD!!(except Jesus guaranteed us we would do greater miracles then He even did!!) But only if we know our identity. "In Jesus name ",was not a phrase to use to hope your prayers get answered!! It was a reminder to us as believers and the diciples what our calling was and what our identity was and still is today! We are living IN HIS NAME, or IN who He is, or walking in the fullness of the Christ!!! His names are given for identity, he is our identity now as new creatures back to the image of God, being "in His likeness" again, as it was before the curse that jesus took away!!!! I guess what I am saying is this, its not a phrase, its a life. We LIVE IN HIS NAME, so while walking in that calling, everything happens "IN HIS NAME".(you dont even have to say it) just live it and when you ask for things, watch the change! Watch glory manifest in new ways everywhere you go without even asking or saying the phrase!!! I wish all people would just take time and meditate on what "IN JESUS NAME" actually means. You dont even have to get spiritual or theological. Just what does that statement in itself literally mean?? exactly....... now thank God for this promise and this blessed life we get to now live on Earth and for Him entrusting us with HIS and our kingdom now!!!! BAM! BAM!!( I just was getting reminded of this and i am very tired now, so I hope its not confusing!! Just ask PAPA GOD TO CLARIFY WHAT I MEAN, HE will clear it all up and help show you how you are living or standing in JESUS' place or "IN HIS NAME" .

What you Fear, will control you.

Following the last post, I just wanna add that repentance should have nothing to do with Fear of sin or falling into it! I personally can post a testimony from my life of when i used to struggle with something and no matter how many times I "repented" it would always come back!! I even fasted for 50 days to get rid of this sin and wanted freedom from it for good, but after all the tears, all the words, all the fasting and declarations, this particular temptation would come back and as much as i hated it, i would give in!!!! Why???? WHY?? WHY?? i would always fight with myself about it. I even got to where i almost would have rather just died rite after i "repented" that way i could go to heaven for sure!!!! See, i never actually repented in the first place because, my acts were based off a fear of the sin!! i didnt wanna go to hell, so i asked for forgiveness, then i spent every day hoping and praying that i wouldnt do it again!!! (I feared falling into sin) Therefore, sin controlled me!! Whatever you fear controls you. God showed me this almost 2 years ago and told me to only fear Him and nothing else!! This is why repentance isnt sin focused as much as its God focused!!When we repent now, its not to feel depressed, then cry then live scared of doing it again!!! It is a means of going to heaven and experiencing the kingdom and worshipping the king and establishing the goodness of heaven all over earth!!!!!! (and when this is the focus, there will be no problem sin) In the presence of god, the presence of sin is no more!!! BAMM!!!!So i dont flee from temptation as paul states by running in fear that i am weak!!! I actually am more than a conquerer and have the king of Glory living inside of me. So my new way of fleeing temptation is when it comes, I flee the natural realm of earth, get a word from heaven, and establish it rite there on the spot!! Then, temptation does not intimidate me, but I and all of heaven intimidate temptations!!!!There is no fear anymore guys!!!!! So lets stay away from fear!! the holy ghost didnt come to bring fear anyways and nor does he, there is no fear or depression of sin in any of the fruits of the Spirit!!! Love, JOY,PEACE,PATIENCE,GOODNESS,KINDNESS,GENTLENESS,FAITHFULNESS,and SELF-CONTROL!!! Lets start practicing these fruits as God already does and be happy and excited and free once and for all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(DO NOT FEAR SIN or FALLING INTO IT!!!!!!) STAND FIRM AND OVERFLOW HEAVEN ON EARTH with all the bliss of HEAVEN!!!!!! YAYYYYY!!! HAPPINESS! AND FREEDOM!!!

REPENTANCE

Tonight as I dwell on Gods GOODNESS, I just get excited when it comes to His goodness leading men to repentance!!!!!! See, (contrary to popular belief) PAPA GOD is GOOD, and He loves showing off HIS GOODNESS to His children (us)!!!! But, not only to us but also yo the world too!! In fact, its His Goodness that leads men to repentance anyways!! (Not religious christians pointing out sins in peoples lives) We think to repent means to just...... stop sinning. WRONG. That happens, but both words, Re and Pent have meaning, RE-"go back to" and Pent-"high place, loft" or root word for penthouse. See, when you truly repent, you are not just doing something as a means to get rid of sin.(this is why it usually doesnt work) It is a means to get back to the HIGH PLACES we were originally intended to dwell. The heavenly places. with God.!!!!We are not in the old covenant, where sacrifices and works get rid of sins!! No, we are curse free, new covenant, free children of Papa God and we get to dwell with God and live in the Kingdom NOW!!!!!! This is how we take part in the will of God which is heaven on earth!!! We usher heaven on earth!!!!! That is repentance!! You may cry (usually most do),, You may even just get whacked up by God and filled with joy on the spot!!! I have had people close to me say that after people got healed and accepted Jesus in their lives, that they didnt "repent" because they didnt fall out weeping and acting like isiah or something and therefore, they are not saved! Beloved, this grieves me. Gods GOODNESS invaded peoples lives and they experienced HOLINESS. HOLY EXCITEMENT and HOLY JOY!!!!!! There is nothing wrong with not being in the old covenant and walking around afraid of God!!! My God is excited about me and I am excited about Him, and better yet, we get excited TOGETHER!!! (On earth, and In heaven) For some reason, anytime the church hears about "excitement",or bliss, or alot of joy,they are quick to negatively criticize, while they walk around looking bored and depressed!!!!! We think being "HOLY" is acting a certain way.... quiet,proper, in order, and serious all the time. I dont know about you but those boring religious days are over for me!!! Besides, two thirds of the kingdom consist of peace and joy!!!!!! HAPPINESS!!!! So please, everyone, GET HAPPY!!! GOD IS!!!CELEBRATE THE BLISS OF HEAVEN!!!!!!!!! THE JOY!!! HA> HA> HA> HA>!!!! BAM! BAMM! BAMMM!!!!!!! POW! YEAH!!!! )did i just say all that?!?) YOU BETTER BELIEVE I DID!!! AND WILL AGAIN. and AGAIN.... and AGAIN......LETS JUST GO BE PAPA GODS SUPERNATURAL, HOLY, CHILDREN!! LETS GO PLAY IN THE STREETS AND SHOW THE WORLD GODS GOODNESS THROUGH SIGNS,WONDERS,and MIRACLES and watch real repentance take place like never before!!!! (In all ways) BAMMM!!!!!

Our new addition!!!!!!!!


As alot of you already know, Sandra and I have a new addition to the family!!! Ezekiel Maximus Chapman!!! He truly has been in every possible way, as the word says, "a blessing". From the very moment, he came out of the womb into my site, I have been changing in every way, emotionally, spiritually, and all for the greater Glory!! Its seems like every time i just look into his eyes, i get completely whacked up!!! God just "gets" me real good with an overdose of His goodness!!! New joy!! New laughter!! and most of all, a new LOVE!!! BAM!!! BAMM!! BAMMM!!! (thats pretty much my summary of what happens when God gets me through Ezekiel!!! He truly loves his mother but, he only goes to sleep and feels comforted at nights when I (his father) place him in my arms and speak over him as he hears my heart beat!! some may think it hard to work all day, minister, then also have to put the baby to sleep, but in my case, its an HONOR!!! THERE IS NO BETTER FEELING THAN TO KNOW THAT I (HIS PAPA) AM HIS COMFORT AND SECURITY AT THE END OF THE DAY!!!! ITS FILLS ME WITH SO MUCH LOVE AND GODLY PRIDE TO BE A DADDY!!! SEE, I AM SO PROUD OF MY SON, HE HAS ALREADY DONE EVERYTHING HE NEEDS TO HAVE MY LOVE AND APPROVAL. HE IS MY BELOVED SON IN WHOM I AM WELL PLEASED. NOTHING WILL CHANGE THAT!! HE IS THE BEST AND WHATEVER HE DOES (IN CHRIST OR OUT) HE WILL KNOW THAT HE IS THE GREATEST EVER! EVEN AS I TYPE THIS NOW, I AM REMINDED THAT OUR PAPA IN HEAVEN FEELS NOT ONLY THE SAME, BUT EVEN MORE OVER US AS HIS GREAT CHILDREN!!! WE HAVE NOTHING MORE TO DO TO MAKE HIM PROUD AND EXCITED ABOUT US!!! THE TRUTH IS...... GOD IS IN A GOOD MOOD!!! (WHEN IT COMES TO HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS) HE LOVES US AND DOESNT BASE HIS LOVE FOR US ON OUR EVANGELISM ACCOMPLISHMENTS, OUR TIME SPENT IN PRAYER, OR HOW MUCH WE ACT "HOLY"!!! HE IS ALREADY PROUD OF US!! HE LAUGHS, SINGS, WHISTLES, AND DANCES OVER US DAILY!! HE IS JUST EXCITED THAT YOU ARE YOU!!!!!!!!!! AND AS FOR MY SON, IT WAS HIM FEELING MY LOVE, HEARING MY VOICE,SEEING MY FACE, AND HEARING MY HEARTBEAT THAT COMFORTS HIM AND GIVES HIM REAL SECURITY!!! HE DIDNT HAVE TO "TRY'' ANYTHING ANYMORE!!! LETS JUST BE AS CHILDREN AND ENTER THE KINGDOM LIFESTYLE BY JUST QUITTING ALL THE UNNECCESSARY STRIVING TO BE ACCEPTED BY OUR WORKS AND CALLING IT HOLINESS, AND BE TRULY HOLY BY KNOWING THAT CHRIST MADE YOU HOLY, THEREFORE, JUST BE!! QUIT TRYING TO BE HOLY AND SIMPLY JUST BE A SON OR DAUGHTER!! EVEN NOW, JUST LISTEN TO YOUR DADDY'S HEARTBEAT, LISTEN TO WHAT HE IS SINGING OVER YOU OR SPEAKING OVER YOU, FEEL AND HEAR HIS LOVE AND APPROVAL BEING WHISPERED OVER YOU!!! THIS IS WHAT MATTERS!! OUR DADDY!!!! YOU WILL FIND AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS IS THE ONLY REAL COMFORT AND SECURITY!!! YOUR MINISTRIES, YOUR "HOLINESS'', YOUR SERMONS, YOUR THEOLOGY AND ALL ACCOMPLISHMENTS WILL JUST PASS AWAY WITH TIME, BUT DADDY IS ALWAYS PROUD OF YOU!!!!!!!!
