Spiritual Hospitals


I was driving one morning to work and on that particular morning the traffic was very heavy. So I decided to take another route to work. While driving, I saw a building that caught my eye. I had to take a second look at this building. It wasn’t anything special about this building, but it made me take another look at it. The building was located within a store front outdoor shopping area where all of the stores connected to each other. 

The second time I looked at the building I noticed that it had the name of a church. The writing was not big nor did it have a church look or feel to it. Then I heard in the spirit that God is placing spiritual hospitals throughout the world. These locations will not be easily detected and they will not have the outward appearance of being a church. 

I then began to ask God what was He doing? He shared with me that the church as we know it will not be able to handle the masses of people who God is ushering into His kingdom. The church structure as we know it will no longer be effective nor will it be able to handle the needs of the people. His new structure will be able to not only meet the needs of the people, but it will also breathe life back into the body of Christ.  When I think about what hospitals represent, I think about hospitals meeting each unique need to cure an illness or disease whether minor or complicated. Spiritual hospitals will have that same concept spiritually. These places will be able to handle the needs of the people whether big or small, the needs will be met. 

These Spiritual Hospitals will be strategically placed throughout neighborhoods, communities, and cities. They will be placed within universities, recreational places, shopping areas, homes, and businesses. I then heard in my spirit that the people are not coming to churches, but they will go shopping, they will go to recreational places. God is going to where the people are. He is ushering the move of the new structure outside of the church walls. Also, these churches will be creating communities online where individuals will be able to reach out to God’s spiritual leaders through online portals and other social media outlets. 

There are churches that have begun moving with God and going outside of the four walls. Many of the churches who are not ready and prepared for this shift and move of God will be left trying to figure out how to “bring in the souls” with their old church structure. 

We are getting ready to see God move in a different direction by shifting structures and tearing down old structures that have not produced fruit. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matthew 7:20

    I LOVE IT! Churches have not been able to successfully take care of the masses. I don't think it was ever God's intent for 1 man/woman to handle it all. We, the Christians, should be caring for one another. This is awesome! I can't wait to see this new structure all over the world!

Is This You?

Is This You? I wrote an article a few days ago about the  signs of spiritual abuse  and how to recognize this type of abuse within a church. After the article was written, I was asked by someone to talk about the effects of this type of abuse because they had a friend that was still struggling with the effects of spiritual abuse. Also some people are still trying to say that this abuse is not real and that there could not possibly be any effects to such a thing. Over the past 17 years as a social worker, I have worked with many victims who have experienced all types of horrific forms of abuse; from child abuse victims to sexual abuse victims, elderly abuse, domestic violence victims, victims of assaults, human trafficking, etc. You name it; I have pretty much worked with them. Either I have counseled them; conducted support groups for them or helped them find valuable resources. Basically my job as a social worker was to help each victim begin the painful ...

Which One Are You?

The other day I ran across one of my old 2010 journals. While reading some of the things I wrote my eye caught a particular journal entry. It was an entry for the month of August 2010. In that month of the August journal entry, I wrote about David and his son Solomon; a passage in the Bible from I Chronicles chapters 22 and 28 . I was encouraged to share this journal entry from 2010 with my readers at this specific time. To describe what I was hearing in my spirit I first must give a quick overview of what was going on in chapter 28 . During that time David had called a meeting with all of the most important people in Israel. David then stood up and made an announcement to the people that he had wanted to build an house of rest for the ark of the covenant of the Lord and he had begun to make plans to start building this mighty temple. But then he told the people that God told him that he could not build this temple due to the fact that David was a man of war and has shed bloo...

Power

Where are you getting your power from? Have you ever been around someone or a group of people for a period of time and when you went home you were completely exhausted and did not know why.  I recently had a family function and you can imagine how draining family can be sometimes. Just the idea of going to this function made me tired. To my surprise, after attending the event, I was surprised that I felt great. I was not tired or drained at all. I asked myself what was different about this family function for me not to be so drained and exhausted…nothing. Everyone was still themselves. They had not changed at all.  I realized that the night before my best friend challenged my thinking. She told me that if I go to the function thinking that it would not go well then it will not go well. I had spent days rehearsing how bad the family function would be and didn't even realize it. I played the negative thoughts in my head over and over again. By doing that, I bec...
