We will have our Sunday afternoon Bible Study at 3PM CDT in Bethany. Kemper will be directing the discussion today. We will be completing this series soon and hope this study had moved you to a greater level of maturity.
To participate live or watch this Bible study as a recording afterwards, go to http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-baptism-of-love The chat room will be open again today for your comments. We look forward to your participation during our live broadcast.
1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. KJV
The blogs that I write are intended for your preparation concerning upcoming events and situations. Be assured that I am not interested in promoting fictional prose as a pastime. My Degree in Economics was not by my specific plan but was orchestrated by Our Heavenly Father in a series of events. From a practical standpoint, this specific degree was not of major value in my early business career. Just about any business degree was sufficient to get a job. Now is the time when this degree has its greatest relevance. Things are going to change… dramatically… and soon.
The greatest unknown is just how events will play out. Will we have a hyperinflationary depression, a deflationary depression, an all out economic collapse, or all of the above? You may not understand these terms or their specific impact on your life, but that is okay. What you need to understand is that the current system will not operate in a reliable and effective manner much longer. We have been in the midst of a 100 year experiment conducted by men and women in power, trusting in their own wisdom and understanding. Their motivation was self-serving and was to promote agendas that would insure their continued control for generations.
I see no painless outcome ahead for the current system. There are many historical examples of the same economic path we are on. None of them succeeded. Empires over-expanded and then collapsed. Each attempt to rule the world failed. It will be no different this time. The only question is when?
When mankind pursues a path apart from Our Heavenly Father, it always leads to destruction. Technology won’t save us. There is no magic pill and there is no silver bullet. Men will experience unintended consequences of their actions and there will be many who will suffer as a result. As a beloved brother, what can I do to help prepare you for what I believe will be a notable and negative economic event? The answer lies in the above Scripture. Overcoming fear will be our greatest challenge. Much of the current infrastructure many have based their lives on may be affected. Only Our Heavenly Father knows how all of this will go down. Since HE is the only One who will know how to deal with the coming changes, don’t you think it would behoove you to align yourself with HIM?
Servias Ministries has focused on providing materials to mature the Saints for what lies ahead. First and foremost, you must increase in your revelation and understanding of Love. We have two books specifically on that subject (www.unity153.net). You should expand you understanding of Jesus Christ. Dr. Speckhart’s book (http://www.servias.org/?p=1774) provides additional perspective in this area. Kemper’s book “Raising a Remnant” (http://www.servias.org/?p=1913) provides us with specifics for the maturing saint. Our online Bible studies (http://www.ustream.tv/channel/the-baptism-of-love) are meant to provide supportive discussion on all these topics. I believe we are providing practical assistance to those who are preparing for the coming change, in whatever form it takes. Servias Ministries was created and has progressed in response to Our Heavenly Father’s specific directives. I trust that it was not formed just to pass the time and consume resources.
The coming change will generate a tremendous amount of fear among the population. Men’s hearts will fail them. Women will be crying in their pillows. The young will lose hope. This will be a time when Love will set the standard for all men to see. Lies will be exposed and men’s corruption will be judged. People will be saying, “What was I thinking?’’” when the Truth opens their eyes. Fear will torment the people until Love shows up on the scene.
I implore the reader to focus on maturing in the revelation of Love. I believe this to be the best use of your time in preparing for the coming changes. Get up an hour earlier if you need to in order that you can dwell and meditate on HIS Word concerning Love. Of course there are many secondary actions to take but if you don’t get the revelation of Love, fear may take you down the wrong decision path. How can I be any more direct than this? You either will “get it” or you won’t. I hope you do.
We continue the convergence toward a major shift on earth. The current system has been run by self-serving individuals who have mastered lawlessness to the nth degree. The complexity of their solutions have outstripped their ability to solve the next crisis their previous solutions produced. Their path for the globe will not end well. There is over 1.4 quadrillion dollars in financial derivatives much of which is tied to interest rates. As rates go up, the derivative contracts will require performance by the counterparty. In turn, the losing side must liquidate assets to pay off their obligations. What assets do they have? They probably have large stock positions in the market. The Dow has been reaching all time highs. This has been due to the Federal Reserve focusing on producing a “wealth effect” in order to keep the investing public passive. Their manipulations of markets will soon be history. Markets will collapse. I expect their license to print money out of thin air will be revoked once the investors finally wake up to the misrepresentations of government statistics. Much of the perceived wealth will evaporate overnight.
The system is so complex now that it needs a complete overhaul. With over 6.5 billion people on earth, who can bring us out on the other side of this impending crisis? The world’s smartest people got us into this mess. The richest people funded this mess. They are out of solutions or they would have already been implemented.
This is where I believe Our Heavenly Father will step in with the needed judgment to wipe away the lies and lawlessness. HE has been preparing the Remnant who will listen and respond to HIS direction. They will make the needed changes based on Love, not self-preservation. Upon judgment of the current system, the masses will be ready to receive a righteous solution to their failed system. Men and women walking in Love and by the Holy Spirit will be the ones who will set the new course. If you are lacking in Love, I suspect you will not be sufficiently empowered to be part of the solution. That’s okay, HE will raise up a sufficient number of those who have been called. HE always does.
James 4:3 Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.
Each of us has a unique covenant with Our Heavenly Father. It is also known are your calling. You have been imparted specific gifts and resources to fulfill your calling. Any calling imparted by Our Heavenly Father is based on HIS Love and the furtherance of HIS Kingdom. If you are not fulfilling your calling, the issue is with you, not HIM.
The universe is in continuous expansion, all based on HIS Word. As the Creator, HE has sufficient resources to allocate to your calling for HE does not live in a realm of scarcity although you may be currently experiencing scarcity in your life. If you are experiencing scarcity and lack, you must assess your specific situation. It is my belief that the greater revelation of Love one has, the greater sufficiency is in one’s life. Complete sufficiency is based on all the resources you need to fulfill your calling. Each of us has a different calling therefore each of us has a different set of resources required. The parable of the talents illustrates this reality.
If you are not receiving, you are probably asking amiss. The question that begs to be asked is “How do I go about asking in a proper manner?”. I would suggest that you may be asking according to the ego (aka the old man). You are asking based on your perception rather than understanding. Each of us must do a critical review of our intent. Nobody else can do this for you. Only Our Heavenly Father knows your heart. Are you asking for something that furthers the old man’s agenda or are you asking in order to serve mankind? Some people ask for a lot of money to support the preaching of the Gospel. Of course they will first make sure they are taken care of before one penny gets distributed. That is an example of self-centeredness. Stewardship reflects your intent before you are given a greater responsibility along with the resources to achieve the expected results.
If you are not taking care of the assets you have now, how can you expect to be given stewardship over more assets? As an example, if your current vehicle is “trashed out”, how can you expect to be supplied with a better vehicle? If you aren’t a cheerful giver at your current level of income, how can you expect to be given additional financial resources?
The Law of Scarcity is promoted by our consuming the firstfruits of whatever we receive upon ourselves. The Law of Abundance is planting the firstfruits according to Love into others and in turn increases our own “crop”. This understanding is what brings forth expansion. The boy who provided five loaves and two fishes received a dramatic increase from his giving.
The current world system promotes scarcity as their reality. This is simply a perception, not reality. Our Heavenly Father has infinite resources at our disposal but will not distribute them so that you can consume them upon your lusts. How do you correct your error? I am fully convince that those who seek the fullness of the understanding and revelation of Love will be those whom HE uses to bring forth the Kingdom on this earth. If you are not passionate about getting this revelation, I wonder if you will be among those earmarked as “The Remnant”.
Jesus emphasized that the Law was centered around Love. All mankind has been reconciled because “For GOD so Loved”. Yet most of the brethren spend their time studying about anything else but the one subject that the Gospel is based on… Love. This is because the ego knows that its end is in sight once you become passionate about getting the revelation of Love.
The Middle East is in shambles. War has become a way of life there. The U.S. has enabled both sides in varying degrees. Why? It is all about lust and pride. Everyone thinks they are entitled to whatever resources are available. Some take that position by inheritance, others by force. The earth and it fullness are the LORD’s. That is the reality.
James 4:1 Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?
The U.S. wants to maintain its lifestyle and it thinks it is entitled to do so. The Europeans are no different. The elites in every country believe they are “entitled” since they have wealth and power. Are all of them about to be humbled? Maybe so. The lawlessness has so infiltrated the various societies around the world that there is substantial justification for a “global reset” unexpected by the elites. This global reset I speak of will come from Above, not from a hidden, smoke-filled room of manipulators.
Throughout history, Our Heavenly Father has used small groups to carry out major changes in the focus and direction of the population. Noah was in a group of eight. Gideon was in a group of 300. Each would be classified as a remnant. HE always has a remnant of staunch believers who fully trust HIM. I trust that you and I may be counted among those in the current remnant.
James continues:
2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.
James is eluding to the Law of Scarcity. This is the law that the ego lives by. At the center of the Law of Scarcity is lust of the eyes, lust of the flesh, and the pride of life. These are the three fundamental aspects of the ego. The ego will move you to scarcity and then convince you of ways to satisfy your “scarcity”. They never include walking in Love. On the contrary, war is at the center of focus, whether it be with those who have the resources you want or in your own members. The ego will create a problem to solve. It leaves you in a constant state of lack and want. It has you right where it wants you. Success and peace are just barely out of your reach at all times.
4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
What does an adulterer do? He is not faithful in his relationship with his life partner. The church is the bride of Christ. Has she pursued idols to satisfy the flesh? The more you Love, the more faithful you are. The maturity of Love produces faithfulness.
The solution to world peace is Love, nothing else. Love created man, the universe, and the law. The universe is in harmony or planets would have already collided with each other. On the other hand, mankind has continued in discord. The ego has promoted judgment as a right of man. Man’s judgment will always promote discord. Only Our Heavenly Father can truly judge in a proper fashion. As we are led by the Spirit, we can carry out HIS bidding. Until then, war will rage on.
I believe Our Heavenly Father is raising up HIS Remnant in the revelation of Love. Once the remnant has been fully prepared, things will change. In the meantime, the vessels of dishonor will continue to mature as well. Once maturity of both have come, there will be a harvest. The Great Reset will occur. Those who pursue the fullness of Love will be the standard for all to see. What are you pursuing?
The most interesting number to me is “16”, the number of Love. Love will ultimately have its way:
![CropperCapture[269]](http://www.servias.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/CropperCapture269.png "CropperCapture[269]")
Focus on Love and everything else will play out accordingly. A global currency reset is “small potatoes” in the biggest of pictures.
Our Heavenly Father established the laws we live by. Gravity, seasons, reproduction, etc. are all well-established laws spoken into existence by HIM. The law of sowing and reaping is a law we live out each day whether we realize it or not. If you sow discord, you will reap discord. If you sow Love, you will reap Love. It is really pretty simple. If you submit to your ego, you will reap the reward that the ego can produce… lack, insufficiency, scarcity. Those who read this blog often will note my insistence on hearing HIS Voice. They will also note my plea to focus on Love. The solutions to the economic woes of this earth are found by those two pursuits, period.
Our Heavenly Father told the children of Israel how to tap into the Law of Abundance:
Deuteronomy 28:
1 “Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the LORD your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the LORD your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. 2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the LORD your God:
3 “Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the country.
4 “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.
5 “Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
6 “Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out.
7 “The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.
8 “The LORD will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.
9 “The LORD will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the LORD your God and walk in His ways. 10 Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the LORD, and they shall be afraid of you. 11 And the LORD will grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground, in the land of which the LORD swore to your fathers to give you.12 The LORD will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. 13 And the LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the LORD your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them. 14 So you shall not turn aside from any of the words which I command you this day, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them. NKJV
The Law of Abundance is conditional. You must “diligently obey” the Voice of Our Heavenly Father AND carefully observe the commandments of the LORD. All of HIS commandments are summed up in one word- Love. If you are not operating in the Law of Abundance, by default, you are operating in the Law of Scarcity.
Love is your safeguard against abusing and misusing abundance. In the past, the Law of Abundance was misused by many ministries because they failed to operate in Love. Both are required and there are no exceptions. Resources you don’t truly “Love” will ultimately be ripped away from you. As we learn to trust the Word of Father, we will become comfortable with handling more resources on HIS behalf.
Many of the brethren have stayed away from the Law of Abundance. Why? Their revelation of Love was not strong enough to counteract the ego’s quest for control if given the abundance stated in Deuteronomy 28 1-14. In the meantime, people are suffering all around us.
Jesus operated in the Law of Abundance. When ministering to the multitudes, He saw they were hungry. No worries. He understood this Law and multiplied the bread and the fishes by His Love for the people. Our Heavenly Father responds to Love and rallies the resources of the universe to meet the need.
In Matthew 14 where Jesus fed the 5,000, the story begins:
14 And when Jesus went out He saw a great multitude; and He was moved with compassion for them, and healed their sick.
Are you moved with compassion? If not, you need to focus on the revelation of Love. This revelation is ongoing, not just a topic for a few days. “Carefully observing” mentioned in Deuteronomy 28:1 denotes an ongoing focus. Reinforce your study by daily acts of Love. Take command of your ego for it must die. It won’t die until something greater takes its place. Love is the key. As you truly walk in Love, abundance and sufficiency will follow you. You will become a cheerful giver and you will be moved with compassion. You will trust HIS Voice and the resources of Heaven will be at your disposal. You will be able to access the true Treasury. Man’s trappings will have no place in your life. You will move from the Law of Scarcity to the Law of Abundance.
Debt is soaring around the world. The stock market is soaring and things are getting crazy. Six years of zero percent interest rates are devastating the middle class. 48,000,000 people are on food stamps in the U.S. 11,000,000 people are on disability. The jobs report looked good until you look at the numbers behind the numbers. All of the growth was in “part-time” jobs (800,000). Full-time jobs are declining (500,000). The net effect was an increase of 300,000. Put some more lipstick on that pig please.
In Iraq it continues to get ugly. Syria is concerned. Saudi Arabia is too. The turmoil could affect the price of oil and push it up dramatically. The goal of the printing press is to make everyone feel good and overlook all of these problems. The U.S. armed the Syrian rebels and they became ISIS. We are now fighting them. The geopolitical arena is so fragile, there are many black swans that could burst the money bubble.
As the debt increases, men do insane and desperate things. China borrowed 15 Trillion Dollars to build infrastructure that may never become economical. Ghost cities will degrade over time. The risks are high everywhere.
When will the bubble burst? Nobody knows. When the bubble pops, governments will go bankrupt. How will it go down? Nobody knows. Some believe that hyperinflation will kick in. Others believe that a deflationary collapse will occur. The average guy will be the one who will suffer the most pain.
We have been convinced by the car dealers to take out 96 month car loans since everybody needs a luxury SUV. Hardly anybody can afford 36 month loans anymore. Students are borrowing huge amounts to get a degree that may never support a payback plan. The population has deferred the economic pain of compression. Will we have a Great Depression II or a Weimar Republic hyperinflation? Maybe both, one after the other.
The Ponzi scheme continues because the money printing press has deferred the ultimate reset. The longer it takes to reconcile the “books”, the more severe the overall pain.
Social unrest will come. High density population areas will be susceptible to the greatest social unrest.
Move toward self-sufficiency. Lower personal expenses/cost of living. Become indispensible at your job (if you have one). As I continue to preach: Simplify.
Man’s ego will be “popped” once again. Everyone will ask “How did this happen?” The ego “caused the mouth to write checks the body could not cash”. I know I sound like a broken record but this is no different than the years before the tech bubble popped. It is no different than when the real estate bubble popped. We are now in the “mother” of bubbles. It will get ugly for those who have their trust in the ways of the world. There is a vast majority in that boat and it will eventually sink. The solutions to all of the coming challenges will be found only from Above. The revelation of Love will be the key to opening your understanding. I am convinced of this Truth.

There has been some focus placed on July 20th as a possible economic/monetary event that might affect us all. These days, anything could happen. The complexities that have been created by man have increased to the point where any aspect of the current system could fail, or caused to fail by some nefarious plan implemented in order to bring us into further subjection. It is my hope that this chatter is simply another mind-generated suspicion without any substance. However, I would rather be prepared for such an event than be a day late with regret.
The American economy continues to weaken. Our latest trek to the Alabama coast confirms that belief. We have been going down South for the past 38 years and have a good feel for the economy based on the crowds or lack thereof. Restaurants are no longer packed, traffic was not as heavy, and the beach was not overcrowded except for July 3rd and 4th. People are cutting back in all areas. Food prices are going through the roof and gasoline prices were in the mid to high $3 range. We’re growing accustomed to the new price levels.
In the past, the solution to America’s economic woes focused on war. People are weary about another war at this time. A false flag event could take place in order to sway the population into yet another major conflict.
Since the 2008 meltdown, the banking system has not improved at all. On the contrary, it is more fragile today than ever and the big banks have increased in size and concentration. Their political funding has once again paid off in spades. At the same time, the middle class is shrinking. This group was the economic engine to keep the economy growing. Consumption continues to decline and the true statistics reveal this reality. This is why one must be aware of the possibility of an act of desperation by those in control.
In such a complex world, what can you and I do? My long-term solution comes from Above, not here at the worldly level. In Scripture there were 13 recorded famines. Mankind brought on these famines. Our Heavenly Father had the solutions to the famines then as HE does now. HE knows that a Remnant will intercede for mankind and HE will sustain that Remnant while the rest of the world goes through whatever judgment necessary to once again balance the scales. Jesus’ ministry occurred during the occupation by Rome yet He had no problem in rallying resources as needed to minister to the hungry. Should we expect anything less now?
The noise of the current system can be deafening if you let it. Each of us should enter into our “closet” and focus on hearing Our Father’s Voice. HE will guide us through whatever lies ahead. If something major does happen on the 20th, those who rely on Our Father will be the examples for others to see and emulate. We will be the calm ones in the midst of the storm.
