IDOK DEVOTION FOR THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2008
Revelation 22: 20 He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.”
Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
Today’s subject is not pleasant for me but this woman’s gotta do what she’s gotta do.
Unless we want the homosexual agenda in America to go the way of Rowe v Wade, we better find our Voices and our Spiritual Backbone NOW.
Praise God on November 4 Proposition 8 succeeded in California, Florida and Arizona. However, this means the WAR has been accelerated. Homosexuals are angry and the president-elect will, if not lead them, at least assist them with their agenda. Here are some links to explain what I mean; please check it out for yourself. http://www.onenewsnow.com/Politics/Default.aspx?id=315364

And this one with multiple stories: http://americansfortruth.com/
(also allow me to give you a warning: this web page has a disgusting picture on it – please shelter your children from viewing it.)
Look for such stories as ‘Bash Back!’ Bigots Storm Michigan Church – Activists disrupt worship service, shout ‘Jesus was gay!’ Is this a ‘hate crime’?
Homosexual Zealot Clay Rooker Warns Family Activist Linda Harvey: ‘You are being watched!’
Homosexuals Call for Violence against Christian Supporters of Prop 8.
And this one, a judge ruling for homosexual marriage:

And there are others. I also warn you that the author of website (2) uses the word ‘queer’ when referring to homosexuals. I understand this word to be inflammatory. Please be lead by the Holy Spirit as to your usage of it.
I think the most blasphemous lie to come from the pit of hell and to be spewed from the mouths of humans is that ‘Jesus was a homosexual’. I hate even the way that looks on the screen. ABBA said the heart of man is deceived and desperately wicked – He told the truth as He forever does. Jeremiah 17:
9“The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it? 10 I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give every man according to his ways, According to the fruit of his doings.
To put forth that our Jesus was homosexual is also to say that He was (is) the most heinous hypocrite of eternity. For it was our Precious LORD who ordered the destruction of Sodom because the city was infested and overrun with homosexuals. Are we so foolish to think He will not again rain down judgment for the same debauchery and abomination? The men of Sodom said to Lot in Genesis 19: 5 They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.” and then angels spoke to Lot: 13 because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that He has sent us to destroy it.”
I am not sure at this moment what practical steps you and I can take to stay this tide of evil. I know that violence to violence is not the answer. I know that tolerance (perverted mercy) is not the answer. I know hate is not the answer. I know JESUS is the answer. Again, I say I do not today know what practical steps I am to take, nor the steps I should encourage you to take. However, my leading today is to ask ourselves a few questions. Do you have friends, family, co-workers, or neighbors who have made it known to you that they are homosexuals? Do they know by your words and your actions that you love them but their choice to be a homosexual is an abomination to God; that what they have embraced is a violation of the Word of God; that it is not an alternative life style it is a ticket to destruction? If your answers are (1) yes and (2) no or I don’t know, start there. Pray and find out from ABBA how you can demonstrate and explain to him or her that you love them, that Jesus loves them but their choice to practice homosexuality either in thought or deed is sin and it is in their best interest to repent.
As we pray and seek Father’s direction, I am certain He will lead. He loves the sinner but He hates the sin and we are commanded to do the same.
ABBA, it is not only the sin of homosexuality that is destroying America but the sins of abortion, undeserved welfare, greed, idolatry, witchcraft — You know better than I, Father. It is overwhelming to us to even know how to stand against all this; to love people and yet hate their sins and make a stand for honor and righteousness in this perverted land. We have already confessed and we are already seeing that America as a whole with the election of Obama has opened the door to more evil than we can imagine. Father, again I say I am sorry and I pray that You will allow me the privilege to work with You to rescue as many souls as possible in these hours that we have left. We need You to balance us and we need You to appoint and anoint us in the fields and avenues of voice and service that You want us to occupy. We want to know we are balanced as we stand and work and speak against sin and offer Your Salvation to repentant sinners. We do not want to incite violence but we do not want to be afraid and refuse to storm the gates of hell either. Father, we IDOKs, do not want to see America go the way of every other Nation that has refused to knowledge or has forgotten You are God and we do not know what we can do to prevent or delay it but if You will allow us the privilege of working with You for Her salvation, we want to do that. We believe You will instruct us and we pray for patience to wait and diligence to cooperate with You in getting us prepared to serve. Again we pray for traveling mercies, for wisdom, for discernment for needy IDOKs. We pray for Terry and his family, You know the ‘hell’ that has erupted and we pray for souls to be rescued in this family situation according to Your Will and eternal plan. And we pray for the finances of IDOKs – all of us – that we will be good stewards of what You have given us; that we will do the opposite of the world and be generous as You direct us and invest as You lead us. We pray for each individual listed here that each of them will experience Your Touch today in their area of need. And we in particular pray for our IDOK Troops for their safety and protection of mind, body and spirit. Guard Israel, overthrow her enemies and Lord don’t let it be that America will forsake Israel. We pray for courage and protection for persecuted Christians. We pray their faith and their strength will not fail and that they will behold Your Glory daily. We pray for a crown of victory for each of them. And LORD empower us to memorize Your Word – choose the passages for us and get us doing it now. Thank You for the voices You have given us – anoint them with Your Power and Authority as You see fit in Jesus Mighty and Worthy Name we pray. Amen and amen. Traveling mercies for IDOKs on the road and wisdom for IDOKs making decisions about church affiliation. Economic conditions, especially the effects it has upon the minds and hearts of people.
