Invitation to Give!
As in King David’s day, we are at a threshold moment at the threshing floor between mercy and judgment. Lets all gain David’s resolve “I will not give the Lord that which cost me nothing!” There’s no more important time than now. Please consider a generous gift towards the Redeem America Solemn Assembly! To contribute click: https://jonandjolene.us/contribute-2/
DEAR FRIENDS,
FIRST—SARASOTA LEFT US BREATHLESS. Truly. At least the move of Holy Spirit did, amidst us all. So much was shared, so much was confirmed as a supernatural threshold opened to usher us all into His new work. Thank you Jesus! Grateful to Brian and Bren Gibbs and their incredible team!
DURING THE DAYS OF AWE, all of God’s covenant people are encouraged to embrace the discipline of “TESHUVAH.” It is the Hebraic word for repentance. Not coincidentally, it is also the Hebrew word for “turnaround.” In seeking a better verdict for the year than our actions alone can secure, various aspects of teshuvah are pursued. Repenting before God. Seeking His face. Repenting to one another and repairing broken relationships, even making restitution where appropriate.
In the midst of this, the grace of generosity is also paramount. Giving to the Lord, giving to His people, giving to the poor. Let your seed set the course for the future!
As we work towards the Redeem America Solemn Assembly, we are asking that you consider a generous donation. Lamplighter family, what an incredible time to sow into the future you desire to secure from the Lord!
Angel at the Threshold
King David’s heart in giving provides a parabolic prophetic picture for our time. In response to David’s sin, an angel of the Lord was sent to Jerusalem with a dire mission—to destroy. This angel had already struck 70,000 from Dan in the north to Beersheba in the south. And the angel was hovering over a threshing floor on Mt Moriah, what is now the Temple Mount, with sword outstretched to slay Jerusalem.
It’s not hard to see the parallel with Washington DC and Jerusalem today. Especially in a rare hour when prophetic warnings and the immediate prospect of global calamity are colliding.
Time to Take Responsibility
When faced with this threshold, David responded wholeheartedly before the Lord. “This is my wrongdoing. What have these sheep done? Let Your hand be on me and my father’s house!” He took responsibility for his sins and faults—he repented. And by this he sought a reprieve from the Lord from the judgement at hand. Even at the expense of his life!
It goes without saying that’s what we need to do today. Take responsibility! And lets plead for mercy.
God responded. The angel paused. David was told to ascend the Temple Mount and build an altar to the Lord on the threshing floor. He sought to purchase the land from Ornan the Jebusite, but Ornan refused. He instead told David he would donate the land, and also the oxen to be sacrificed on the altar!
Now it was David’s turn to refuse. He deeply knew the heart of His God. “I will not give the Lord that which cost me nothing!” David purchased the land and made covenant with the Lord. Fire fell from Heaven in response. And instead of judgement, the Lord brought Israel again into His covenant blessing!
Join Sunday—and Consider a Gift
This is the summons of this hour. As of Yom Kippur 2023, we are now standing at a similar threshold in history, on a similar threshing floor. And the voice of God is trumpeting to us all. Gather to me My godly ones, who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice! (Psalm 50:5).
That said, please join us THIS SUNDAY EVENING at the beginning of Yom Kippur, as we plead for mercy and seek to see America’s covenant with God repaired. It will be a profound time. Promise.
And please consider presenting to the Lord a generous gift towards the Redeem America project. Consider it an altar for this hour. Lamplighter family especially, lets not give the Lord that which costs us nothing!
Lets Build a Generational Altar of Mercy!
Final point. A generation after David, King Solomon stood in his father’s footsteps and prayed at that very altar.This time there was a Temple built around it, to be consecrated as a dwelling place for His glory. And as Solomon prayed, holy fire again fell!
And it was then that God made Solomon a promise based on David’s miraculous preservation. “If My people will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn. From their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal their land!” (2 Chronicles 7:14).
Lets take God at His word, and believe Him to genuinely heal our land!
And let’s also believe God for a generational altar of mercy to be established that invokes His glory and secures His blessing for our land. It will be made up of human stones. Actually many prayer networks and leaders, joining together with Him towards this common cause. Together lets REDEEM AMERICA!
