As I write this month’s newsletter, Heather and I are returning home to beautiful Colorado. As we boarded the plane, a young lady was waiting in line right next to us, covered in tattoos, and asking us if our flight was going to Colorado and if she was in the right line. Heather explained to her that it was the correct line to be in for Colorado. As this young lady said thank you, I realized the Holy Spirit wanted me to speak to her. So I asked her by the unction of the Holy Spirit, “How are your parents?” she answered, “Well, my mom is ok, but I’m going to see my dad for the first time.” I prophetically replied, “Because he just came out from being incarcerated?” She said, “Yes, he is just getting out.” We were able to speak to her further and tell her how much of a plan Jesus had for her life.
Even now, as I write this, my heart is aching for hurting kids and people everywhere—even more so, how much God hurts for these. His heart carries so much pain for them all. Once again, I am moved by an intense desire to see His missing creation come to Him. I cannot shake the deep motivation to give Him the one thing He does not possess: His missing creation.
God doesn’t possess a massive part of His creation, even though He owns the cattle on a thousand hills and says all the silver and the gold belong to Him. What He does not have, is souls! There are so many more to win, and the only thing we know to do is raise a domino effect towards others who will win as many as they can. I desire to raise a million to reach a billion. It burns in me to make God as rich as possible!
He set us free. He is the Way, the Truth, and Life—in response, we should give our whole life back to Him as a living sacrifice. This is the path I’ve chosen, and we will burn to reach as many as possible with every available means. In our case, there is a special emphasis on media and daily broadcasts. This is the first line of offense in raising a million clear-eyed, clear-minded, and highly committed disciples to reach a billion for Him!
As we continue to grow a vast audience, we will continue to develop more ways, with the Holy Spirit’s assistance, to build an army of a million. My eyes fill with tears as I write this to you because it burns intensely within me. We are committed to giving our Father what He desires. I hope you will stand with us in this vision—A Million for a Billion.
Scripture clearly states there is more rejoicing in heaven over one soul who turns to Jesus and repents.
Luke 15:8: “Or what woman, having ten silver coins, if she loses one coin, does not light a lamp, sweep the house, and search carefully until she finds it? 9 And when she has found it, she calls her friends and neighbors together, saying, ‘Rejoice with me, for I have found the piece which I lost!’ 10 Likewise, I say to you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”
Carefully note the language here – not “joy on the part,” but “joy in the presence of the angels of God.”
Zephaniah 3:17 The LORD your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”
But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? —James 2:20
It is not sufficient to simply burn with the heart of God! It requires massive action with consistent execution to accomplish the calling of God, to see a million raised to ultimately reach a billion—many ministers and ministries miss it right here—in partnering with God!
God is waiting for us to link with Him to do the impossible! He doesn’t just want you to accomplish the difficult, no! He wants so much more! God is looking for someone to partner with Him to accomplish the impossible. If your ultimate goal is not impossible, I question if God asked you to do it! The vision, dream, or mandate will not be possible without Him.
Without Him, there is no possibility of it happening or coming to pass, but with Him, all things are possible. He is looking for someone who will simply believe Him! Beyond their fears, doubts, and unbelief, He desires that someone will take Him at His Word and accomplish the impossible! Someone said faith is defined as acting like the Word of God is true!
For me and in our current lives, this applies to three areas. Media, Property, and Travel! The things the Spirit of God has placed on my heart and mind are staggering to think about in the natural. However, He simply asked me to believe for it, for His glory. Here is why! Life is very short, and the urgency I sense daily is intense. There is an urgency to raise a million to reach a billion and to do this to the highest and best potential. There will be more and more need for locations to pour into reformers. You may have heard me speak about the burnt stones, the Cinderellas, and the young lions. Not to mention the Rudolfs! The Spirit of the Lord has placed my attention on these different types of reformers. These represent different classes of leaders for this oncoming time we are being marshaled into.
There is a clear word for leaders currently. God is going to elevate the humble. Some time ago, the Lord spoke to me so clearly, saying, “Joseph, if you will remain small in your own eyes, I can really use you…” He then said, “And I really want to use you.” When I heard this, it filled me with tears for the Lord because it became clear to me that He has so few who will actually do that—develop humility. It is pride when a man or woman is called by God and is meant to do something monumental for Him but will not partner with Him to accomplish projects beyond their ability. When projects for Him are within our scope and our ability to accomplish, we are not partnering with God. Religion or our views of faith lead many to think that we should only venture into the realm of what is possible in our own natural abilities. That is pride. Partnering with God is to step into faith, stretching out more and more, believing His words are true, and acting on them. It takes discovering what He has called you to do, whether you are a leader or a Christ follower—intense dedication is required to achieve what He has called you to do.
Not only a discovery of the calling but an unfettered belief in the abilities of God coupled with high actions. To do the impossible, or rather, believe God for the impossible, there must be a strong posture of faith, one which views the impossible as doable with God rather than an objective God is reluctant about—Faith comes alive when you have the realization that He is more thrilled about it than you are!
