THE FIVEFOLD MINISTRY
The giftings of the fivefold ministry (Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor, Teacher) should have one purpose, and that is the teaching and equipping of the saints until we come into unity.

THE “AM” LESSON 12
________________________
In John 15:1-8 Jesus again uses a parable which was based on their familiarity of their natural surroundings. They had grown grape vineyards for centuries, so when he speaks of vines and fruit, they “get it.”
Jesus said in John 15:1, “I AM the true vine, and my Father (Jahh) is the husbandman [vine dresser].” Then in verse 5 he said, “I AM the vine, and ye are the branches.” In verses 2 and 4 he tells us that as his branches, we are to produce fruit. In verse 6 he said that unfruitful branches would be cast off and burned.
God created us. He is our source of life. Jesus is the vine that produces life. Jesus is our source of life. Jesus spoke all creation into existence, and he spoke us (`adam) into existence also.
The vine produces branches, many `adams. Our life is in him (as his branches), and his life is in us eternally. If, however, we are unfruitful, namely by rejecting him and the life given by him, we are cut off eternally and cast into the fire [vs. 6] of hell.
Jesus said in verse 8, “Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit [souls abiding in Christ], so shall ye be my disciples.”
The fruit of a believer is to produce more believers. They become our fruit. Our fruit comes as we [the branches] draw our life from the Vine, The Great I AM, Jesus Christ.
Without the I AM of salvation (Yeshuah) there is no life eternal (age enduring).

STAGNANCY
________________
If you have studied geography at all then you have learned about the Dead Sea. It is located between Jordan and Israel. The reason it is called the “Dead” Sea is that water comes into it from the Jordan River but does not leave. It has a 35% salinity level which does not allow any fish or plant life to live in it. Since it has no outlet, the waters are stagnant. Therefore, it is called the “Dead Sea.”
Stagnant means to show no activity; to be dull; to be sluggish. It also means to not grow or have no change, force, or vitality. In a human it means you are not producing anything worthwhile and have no desire to change. You are like the Dead Sea. The living water has poured in, but nothing comes out of you; you are stagnant.
In John chapter 15 Jesus speaks of being the vine and we are the branches. In verse 15:2 he said, “Every branch in me that beareth not fruit [stagnant life] he taketh away: [the Father takes away] and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.”
We cannot live a “stagnant” life as a Christian. We are to constantly bear fruit, or our lives will go through a severe pruning process. A stagnant life is satisfied with who they are. They do not want to change. They are “suckers” on the vine, and they must be pruned. I am not saying you will lose your salvation. I am saying that there will be a very painful cutting away of those things in your life to cause you to be fruitful.
We should examine ourselves daily to make sure that we are bearing fruit. If not, we must repent and become fruitful. What is that fruit? It is doing the things that Jesus did. Remember, we are connected to the vine, [Jesus] and only grow good fruit.
Jesus isn’t interested in our gifts as much as our fruit. Without fruit in our life, we are like that Dead Sea – a place where nothing lives. Yield to the cutting away if this stagnant condition is where you are at. Live a life that leaves no room for stagnancy.

PROPHETIC WORD
AS GIVEN TO HELEN SANDERS
For I have set you apart for this season saith the Lord, and I would say, come to the winepress and I will show you how the wine is made. Do you see the grapes my child? They are fully ripe and have been harvested; but now is the time for the crushing. You see my child there is no pouring out of the wine without the crushing of the grapes. The grapes are the fruit in your life that I am pleased with, but now it is time for the fruit to be crushed so the pure wine of the vine can come forth. Do you notice that the grapes are put there by the ones that have grown them? Do you notice how they are poured onto the press? Do you think the grapes realize that this is the time for change? No, my child for if they knew they would escape the husbandman’s hand and would flee. They are harvested for this hour and for this purpose. Watch closely as the press begins. It will begin slowly for if it was speedily the grapes would fall from the press. Then as the process begins, the crushing becomes more intense, and the hulls of the grapes are sifted from the pure fruit of the vine. So, it will be with you, my child. You will see this hour as something very unpleasant as the crushing away of those things has to happen to bring forth the true fruit of the vine in your life. As it is crushed, it changes the way the grape is viewed. It no longer is plush full and ready to be eaten. For you, the grapes of my field were chosen to be the precious wine that can only come through the crushing. I will take you now to the olive press my child, and you shall see how the oil comes forth. It too only comes forth through the crushing of the fruit, but what comes forth is the anointing oil that brings forth the anointing in your life. So too, shall the things that need to be crushed to bring forth the anointing will happen with you my child, for I long to pour my anointing out upon you, but it will only come through the crushing. Oh, you have the fruit, but the fruit must be crushed to bring forth the anointing. Now that you have seen the press my child it is up to you to go through this process, but I can assure you that the outcome will be far more valuable than the pain of the crushing. You shall see things change in your life as the wine and the oil are poured out from you and into others. Will you be as one that surrenders and says not my will but thine oh Lord be done? If so, my child be prepared for this season of crushing. It will begin slowly but will become very intense even so that your entire being would cry out to me and ask why I have forsaken you, but you must realize this must take place to be used as the precious oil and wine for my kingdom, saith the Lord.

PROPHETIC EXHORTATION
7-31-2024
Remember the words you say can really hurt someone; So be careful what you allow to come out of your mouth. Just know those words you speak today…Will produce life or death in all your tomorrows. (Proverbs 18:21) So weigh your words carefully and always keep this in mind…Once you say them…You cannot ever take them back. Now have a blessed day and be careful what you say from your mouth today; For you just may eat those hurtful words sooner than you think.

Thursday Scripture Of the Day
Revelation is an incredible book. I hope you take the time to read it.
What a day this will be.
“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among His people! He will live with them, and they will be His people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever. And the one sitting on the throne said, “Look, I am making everything new!” And then He said to me, “Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true.” And He also said, “It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega—the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life. All who are victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be My children.”
Revelation 21:1-7 NLT

Kiss his Face! HCC
Kiss the face of Jesus, by how you live each day.
Try to always do your best, in your actions,
And words you say. Be kind and good and love
The many, for their hope has gone away.
Tell them of the Savior, the faithful friend,
Who lights their way. Maybe read the Bible,
To those who sit alone. Hold their hands,
Tell them that you care, tell them of God,
And his home. And as you kiss this face of Jesus
Your heart will grow inside. For all you’ve done
For others, Jesus smiles and says,
“Well done thou good and faithful servant.”
