Leaving the door open

Among the qualities of men is a quest for knowledge. Men are like cheerleaders who quest for understanding and sing praises to each other. Now that might sound strange, partly because most cheerleaders are pretty, and lets face it most men don’t have the same qualities. Still knowledge is the ledger of this world and the log book that keeps track of men’s abilities. And that log book is the record that will be a measure of this age. If we who are alive on earth can measure time we will ask ourselves questions of this time, just as historians do, “Did this age measure up?” For we find as time grows so does the measure of knowledge and soon that which we call the catch point will be upon us.

 The catch point is the measure of time, which comes to all civilizations, where men must measure up to their knowledge or the knowledge will carry them. If knowledge carries men they will find they are in over their heads and they will drown in misery and despair.

Time carries us, as a man, to the brink because we have prayed for America and other countries as we quest for understanding. I have searched my heart and prayed day by day for Earth House and to find words worthy of writing here. It is like the call of the wild. An animal flies to a far distance because he/she has a choice. They list amidst their desires a quest for warmth. Some call it instinct but its not its knowledge. And knowledge is gifted to animals no matter what their size. Knowledge is the gift that men share with animals. Having more knowledge and abilities is a combination of Wisdom and Knowledge but true Understanding comes from God. False understanding is like believing that we are animals created in the image of monkey man. No man is a monkey though men can make monkeys out of each other. If you want true understanding, now that takes time. And so it is with us who search day by day in a quest to reach you, that person who believes.

Every day each of you quest for understanding under the guise of knowledge. You are reading this now because you want more. You want to see and understand. And in many of your hearts you’re searching for things like I search. For just that one word or phrase or idea that will change you forever. So now you wish above measure, and that measure is called status quo, and wishing above its measure is hope...that I would say something different. Something that just might jerk you out of your boredom. Something that will not so much raise your ire but lead you on a quest. A quest of hope for understanding of God.

Now if you are still reading you are thinking I didn’t stop here to read about God but to find Sanctuary. Sanctuary is an idea that God gave me. Though its a common term God said “Call it Sanctuary” and I did. I called it Sanctuary so that it might become a Sanctuary. And I called it that so that people of the future, and that means you, would find a place of refuge.

Now that refuge I speak of is Time. Time is like the carriage that carries royalty. It moves forward on four wheels. Those four wheels are movement, gravity, space and what I will call a fraction. The fraction is the per cent. Think of it this way. The fraction is what gives Time momentum. Now chance happens to all men but most of us don’t see chance as being a form of time and gravity. Yet it is. And Time is part of the equation that sinks its ruts into your life carving away day by day at the stones that protect your health, your joy, and your hope.

So already you’ve learned a secret of Time. And I speak to you wisely but you don’t have understanding as yet. So let me move you a little deeper towards understanding. Like all people you want hope. Hope is the cherished wish, the four leaf clover found amidst the grass, the toss of the dice that comes up in your favor, the play of the cards again in your favor. You are looking, like me, for that lucky break. You want a break, you pray for a break, you ask for a break. So stick around and lets see what cracks open.

Sanctuary began because God gave me a vision. It became the hope that gives me words. Yet I struggle so much for understanding that I grow day by day in my relationship with God. Yet I struggle because I find that after 8 years of working with Earth House that it has become the Catch 22 of Time.

Think of it this way. I know that you want an answer to life. Some of you are like the Fruit of a tree. You provide for your families, for your country and for your faith. You put God first or try and you walk forward trusting that things will work out. You move with hope and often with excitement but there is still something that you missed. You don’t know what it is. You seek the answer and you wonder “Is this it? Should I give this guy an extra moment of my time?”

What would you do if I told you that I knew things but I could not share them because I struggled, like you with that missing element. I don’t know what it is. Sometimes I think if I had the help of people that might be it. Other times if my nation would shape up, maybe that’s the answer. Yet whatever it is there is a wall, a hindrance, a mountain or a valley or an ocean I can’t cross. It bugs you and right now you and I are in the same boat.

So lets think about it. If Time is part of this story, and we know it is, what would it mean to you if I told you that I’m in battle with Time. Would that mean anything to you? And if I told you that I’m fighting for the human race would that mean anything? And if I told you that this battle is one that will eventually impact every person on the face of the earth. Does that mean anything to you? Because if it doesn’t then move on because I’m not the answer you’re looking for.

You see somewhere out there are people, mostly men, who have been called by God to make a difference not to a handful of people but to nations. And making a difference with a nation isn’t like making soup. It takes months and years of preparation. For me the real battle isn’t Sanctuary or Earth House or any of my other sites. The real battle I face is where none can see or hear or understand. Its in my room in toils of prayers and tears.

God does tell me things and I will state briefly that with God I have the authority. He has called me His Spokesman. I am called an Admiral and a General to the Generals. I have been given authority over the Earth and over Satan and over Time. Now some will laugh and I don’t mind. But I have a quest for you doubters especially to those of you who hear Gods voice. Call it a dare. Ask God if I speak the truth. You won’t find anyone who can stand today under that spiritual scrutiny. Now I have greater authority than this but I speak carefully lest some mock.

Now lets get it straight. I don’t go around asking for help. I find that the promises of men are vain in most cases and to be frank I don’t make promises because circumstances destroy us and turn us away from the Truth. There is only one way I can stand on the above and that is by prayer and my relationship with Jesus Christ. I learned the secrets of understanding and by this I was given authority. This authority translated, or speaking plainly covers so much territory that it is beyond even my comprehension. It goes back 500 years in time and my prayers are recorded by God all the way back to the very beginning. That sounds absurd but again I speak the truth.

Now I have a challenge for you. I want you, who are believers in prayer, to pray. And I want you to ask God if you are meant to play a role in Sanctuary/Earth House. Ask God to speak to you in any way you are comfortable albeit through scripture, in a dream, a vision or whatever it might be. But preferably that He would speak to you. For I am convinced God is preparing me for the last days. I have been given the authority but I am in deadly earnest prayer for the power or anointing to move to the next level. This is where there is a spiritual breakthrough on earth. And when I say breakthrough I do not mean just for myself but for others.

This breakthrough I am speaking of is referring to you. I don’t care where you are on the planet earth but this power I speak of will effect your nation. This sounds arrogant and some will say it is ungodly but its not. I don’t seek power for powers sake. This power I speak of is the power over Satan and over Sin and over the powers and authorities who have remained in power for six plus thousand years. They will continue to remain in power until they are overcome. And that overcoming is something that God is doing in my life. It is such power as helped create all things. And that isn’t a joke. It is a power of creation because as you read the scripture God desires to begin restoration of all things.

In my prayer life God has a favorite saying. “If you want to know how things are going to end then you have to know how things began.” And so God took me on a journey in time by teaching me about creation and how sin began through the tree of knowledge of Good and Evil. I can write a book on it and perhaps shall in the future. The key to this story is God is coming back and He is preparing a people who want His return. That means if you are meant to be part of this story then you have found the answer in this article. It is a true story and I am a real person with real authority. And that power is on its way and it will transform the earth and all the people on it. Because I’m a man? No. Because God is my friend and He cares that I suffer in pain every single day beyond endurance. And I suffer so much He said “There is a man that I love and if you love God then search your heart and listen for I will speak and you will hear...” And that goes out to each of you listening and reading these words.

Finally I am but a man but there are spirits that will try to hinder you. A way to overcome this is to come back here and I will try to write more often than once a month. I will try to carry the story of Gods return and His promise to return. And I will share with you the secrets of the universe and of earth and that is a promise from God to me to you. So trust that there is a God who loves you and a God who is coming back. And if this story continues you’ll begin to yawn.

So write me with your thoughts and questions and I will see where God leads.
