Dr. Michael Brown is called to serve as a "voice of moral, cultural, and spiritual revolution." (Dr. Michael Brown)
Let's Make a Difference Together in 2016
A couple of months ago a woman named Lola posted these gracious words on the AskDrBrown Facebook page: "Thank you for being a voice of intelligence and reason in this very ignorant mess that has become Christianity. Every time I listen to you I feel hopeful that all is not lost in Christendom. Again, thank you."
Those words warmed my heart, and they echo what people tell me wherever I travel in America or around the world. With a big smile (and sometimes with tears) people of all ages say to me, "Thanks so much for being our voice! Don't ever stop what you're doing."
This is a sacred responsibility, and it is something I take quite seriously, as I know that the Lord has called me to serve as a voice of moral, cultural, and spiritual revolution — as your voice.
What a privilege and honor.
You see, every one of us has a specific calling and function, and every one of us is anointed by God to fulfill the calling He has laid upon us.
There are no superstars in God's kingdom, just servants.
Many of the Corinthians were new believers who were impressed with big names and dynamic personalities. That's why Paul wrote to them, "I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth" (1 Cor. 3:6-7).
I have been given an assignment from the Lord, and that assignment is to be a voice, a voice for the Lord, and a voice for you.
And so, when I appear on a secular TV show like Piers Morgan, I'm not thinking about doing well for myself. I'm thinking about representing the Lord well.
I'm also thinking about representing each of you well, saying what you would want to say if you had the opportunity to speak in that setting.
And just as there are many things you can do that I could never do, there are things I can do that you could never do.
That's what makes us a body and a family, and only by working together can we see our ultimate goals fulfilled.
And so, just as I serve as a voice, each of you help to amplify that voice, which becomes our voice together.
On this website alone, some of my articles have been shared more than 150,000 times, with one article being shared more than 360,000 times. You did that, not me.
The AskDrBrown Facebook page reaches multiplied millions every day (as many as 50 million in a single week) with up to 5 million actively engaged over the course of a week (meaning, people who are liking, sharing, or commenting on a post).
Again, you are making that happen, and while I may sow the seed, you are the ones watering it by sharing these messages with others.
As a result, within minutes, what we've done together reaches tens of thousands, and within hours, reaches millions.
That is what I call teamwork!
Because my heart burns to see God's purposes on the earth advanced at this critical time in history, I speak and write day and night.
In the last 12 months, we posted more than 140 articles on the Charisma Newswebsite. These are written as a labor of love with no monetary compensation.
Our AskDrBrown YouTube channel now has more than 360 videos, and we are producing as many as three new videos each week.
We have also posted more than 125 Jewish outreach videos on our Real Messiah YouTube channel.
We have done more than 500 hours of daily radio in 2015, with every show posted online for free, without any subscription fee.
We have brought the message of revival, revolution, and reformation to cities across America as well as to numerous foreign countries.
We have broadcast the "Answering Your Toughest Questions" show on NRB TV, potentially reaching more than 40 million homes.
But all this is just scratching the surface, and what previously felt like the ceiling is really the floor to the next level of effectiveness in the years ahead.
Join with me to make a radical difference in 2016! You can help amplify my voice.
We have invitations to be on more radio stations across America.
We have the opportunity to produce new, cutting-edge TV shows that will equip you to respond to the most critical issues of the day.
We have major plans for front-line Jewish outreach, in America, Israel, and around the world.
We want to post timely YouTube videos on a daily basis as the news happens.
We are at the gate, poised and ready to go, and with your help, we can change the world together.
And so, if you believe in the work we are doing and long to have your voice heard in 2016, please consider making a year-end, tax-deductible donation to our ministry.
I give you my word that every dollar will be used to advance the cause of the kingdom and not a dime will go into my own pocket.
Thank you so much for your support, your encouragement, and your faithfulness to the Lord.
I am excited to see what God will do as we work together in 2016.

STANDING FOR TRUTH IN A WORLD OF DECEPTION
- Now Think On This – Book 4
Here are more encouraging messages written by Steve Martin for the Love For His People and Now Think On This blogs. They cover a variety of topics to encourage you, believers in Jesus, to stand strong in your daily walk, firmly committed for His plans and purposes in our nations. As the Lord would give Steve a word or two in his spirit, he would begin to write.
With a prophetic and inspirational edge, these messages will be an encouragement to you to stand clear in your faith, fulfill the call on your life, and be a light to the nations, beginning within your own family and to those around you. These simple words are meant to be an addition to your daily Bible reading and prayer time.
While the days growing darker, each of us must be built up in the faith of our forefathers and the Jewish writers of the Written Word, as they were inspired by the Holy Spirit. We must stand strong for truth in this world of deception which increasingly surrounds us.
Worth Waiting For: "My Weighty Presence and My Heavyweights"
Dutch Sheets, Dallas, TX The Elijah List
Some of us probably don't catch it as we read the Scriptures. Moses and his servant, Joshua, waited on Mount Sinai for 6 days before the Lord called to Moses and invited him into the cloud of God's glory. Have you ever wondered what these two men did during those 6 days, while God remained silent?
We often don't realize either, that after Moses had disappeared into the cloud, young Joshua remained on the mountain – alone, amidst the cloud of thunderous lightning – for another 34 days. It was possibly this season that caused him to be such a lover of God's presence. Once they had come down from the mountain, even after Moses would leave the tent of meeting, Joshua would remain inside as the cloud of the Lord's glory hovered over it.
Scripture does not tell us exactly what Joshua did during these times in or near God's presence, but it was in the context of studying these fascinating passages from the book of Exodus that the Lord spoke these five words to me: "Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait." There are several words and definitions of the Hebrew words for wait. As I heard each "wait," I knew in my spirit which meaning He was emphasizing.
Five "Waits"
1. The first "wait" the Lord spoke to me means to wait with quiet trust.It is a form of waiting that is built upon deep relational trust. When we have come to know the Lord well enough, our hearts can be still and trust in Him in the midst of life's worst storms.
Papa Moses may have influenced young Joshua in this area, but Joshua knew enough about the goodness and faithfulness of the Lord for himself, that he didn't need for God to speak to Him or show Him any wonders in order for Him to be at peace within the cloud that terrified others.

2. The second "wait" is the more commonly thought of, waiting patiently. It is from the place of trust developed through intimate relationship that we come to know, without a doubt, that God will eventually come through, and we are content in the waiting. When I had my first vision of awakening about 25 years ago, had I known that it would take this long to see the beginnings of it, I might not have been very patient to wait for it.
But if He were to tell me right now that I have to wait another 25 years to see the fullness of this next great move of God, I can wait for it patiently. I have walked with the Lord long enough to know that He is always faithful to His promises, and He is always right.
3. The third "wait" implies an active faith. We may possess a deep relational trust in God, but that faith requires action. We must wait on the Lord with action while being full of expectancy for what He has promised, rather than just sitting back and hoping or wondering if He will come through. Your assurance that God will move compels you to live a life of radical obedience, make bold declarations, and take risky steps of faith without losing heart if there is a prolonged season before seeing any fruit. You rest assured in God's promise that you and your generations will reap of what you sow.
4. The fourth "wait" meansto be braided together with something or someone. This is the kind of waiting referred to in Isaiah 40:31, "Those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength." Wait here is translated from qavahin Hebrew, which means "to bind together by twisting; to become braided together."
Through this waiting we become one with the Lord. In the waiting process that occurs from a relational position, the Lord draws us close to Him in such a way that our hearts become one. Bound together like the strands of a cord, we feel the same emotions and think the same thoughts, resulting in a multiplication of strength for accomplishing His will.
It is the fulfillment of Proverbs 16:3, "Roll your works on the Lord, commit and trust them completely to Him, and He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable with His will. And so shall your plans be established and succeed."(Amplified Version)
5. The last "wait" the Lord spoke to me, I heard loudly in my spirit. But then the Lord actually spelled it out for me. It wasn't "wait," it was: W-E-I-G-H-T. This refers to the heavy, substantive, weighty presence of God's glory.The Hebrew word for glory actually means heavy or weighty.
"My 'Weighty' Presence on My 'Heavyweights'"
The Lord is saying, "If you will learn to wait on Me in these days – trusting, patiently, expectantly and becoming one with Me – I will come with the weight of My glory. I am coming to awaken cities and regions, and I will cause My weighty, shekinah, abiding glory to dwell among you and within you. Just as Adam was crowned with My glory and saturated in My presence, bearing My image and likeness, so too, will I crown you with My glory.
I will put My weighty presence on you, and you shall be My government in the earth. You will walk in great authority and power with signs, wonders and miracles following. As in the days of the book of Acts Church, people will recognize Me through you and you will say, such as I have, I give to you (Acts 3:6.) Now is the time for the sons of God to be made manifest in the earth and the whole earth filled with My glory! Now is the time; the masses are coming!"
For too long, we have lived far below the revelation God wants us to walk in. He's now summoning us into a higher place of understanding, where we are fully aware that the God of glory lives inside of us, we are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and the same power that was in Jesus resides within us to perform and exceed His supernatural works.
The Lord desires to raise up many "heavyweight" men and women, who carry the cloud of God's glory into every room and into every sphere of society, to deliver and transform entire nations!
He is waiting on you. Are you willing to wait, wait, wait, wait on Him until the glorious weight of His presence and power intensifies within you? You may need to turn your TV or social media off for a season, or clear some things off your calendar so you can have more of Him, but I promise you, He is definitely worth waiting for.

We are living in the last days, the times prophesied long ago, right before the Lord Jesus Christ, Yeshua HaMashiach, returns. Even as He spoke to the prophets of old in Israel, continuing through Jesus’ time on earth, and with the early church, the Lord is fulfilling His promise.
His Eternal Word that He would pour out His Spirit on all flesh, and we would prophesy. Prophesy comes in many ways – through the spoken word, signs, dreams, visions, tongues. All are used by the Lord to speak to His people, give them guidance along the way, and show His provision for the plans He has for us. As we walk along His path chosen for us, He desires to encourage and reveal His plans to us. He most certainly uses His Written Word.
He also uses prophetic words. Here are a few that He has given to me. I am continually amazed at how He speaks, how He directs, and the assuring results of His guidance. We need the gifts of the Holy Spirit operating in these times. As the Bible says, He desires that all would prophesy, in order to assist believers in knowing His will, and speaking to non-believers that we serve an All-Knowing God, Who shows us the way.
The gifts of prophesy, seeing signs and wonders, and experiencing His love through His fascinating methods is for all. I hope you are encouraged in seeking Him as you read these stores of how He moved in my life.
Hezekiah became king at the age of twenty-five years, and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem... He, in the first year of his reign, in the first month, opened the doors of the House of the Lord and reinforced them.
Hezekiah was the most righteous of all the kings of Judea. His name is composed of the word "kha-zak" - strong - and God's name "ya" meaning that he strengthened the people's devotion to God. In a recent sensational discovery, King Hezekiah's royal clay seal was unearthed at the foot of the Southern Wall of the Temple Mount, bearing the inscription: “Hezekiah (son) Ahaz King of Judea.” In a time when the Jewish claim to Jerusalem and the Temple Mount is attacked as never before, the discovery verifies the biblical account of a great Jewish king, who strengthened, purified and "opened the doors" of the Holy Temple. May we merit to once again see the opening of the Temple Mount to a Jewish presence, where all will be able to worship the One True God in Jerusalem.
For the first time, the royal seal of a Judean king was unearthed in Jerusalem earlier this month at the foot of the southern wall of the Temple Mount. Find out what makes this an exceptional discovery.

This little booklet consists of messages previously written in my books, which of themselves contain many various themes. I wanted to devote one book to just Israel and the Jewish people, and so this small booklet was compiled.
As you read the following, consider the truth contained in Scriptures, from Genesis to Revelation, which spell out the commitment of God the Father to choose a people who will be a light to the nations. He chose the Jews, and gave them the Promised Land of Israel.
It does not matter what other national governments try to say, do, or accomplish apart from the plans and purposes of the Lord. They will fail. His Word is true. It is eternal. He is the same, yesterday, today and forever, and thus His commitment in keeping His promises made to the Jewish people will be fulfilled. I hope you stand with them in these last days.
