Iowa Passes Bill Banning Abortions And Defining Unborn As Human Beings - Will Maule HELLO CHRISTIAN


Iowa Passes Bill Banning Abortions And Defining Unborn As Human Beings


Feb 28, 2017 by Will Maule  HELLO CHRISTIAN
An Iowa bill that would recognize unborn babies as people with human rights, and would protect them from abortion passed a state Senate committee on Monday, according to LifeNews. 
“A large and vocal crowd” attended the hearing on Monday to voice their support and opposition to the measure. The committee gave its initial approval of the bill, moving it to another Senate committee for consideration. 
“The sovereign state of Iowa recognizes that life is valued and protected from the moment of conception,” the bill declares. Pro-life lawyer Rebecca Keissling was one of several pro-lifers who spoke up in support of the bill.
“You’re providing the framework to recognize that the unborn child is a person and also to have a public policy that prefers childbirth over abortion,” Keissling said.

Have you ever had a "bad" experience only to later discover that it was all for the best? Esther was the unwilling wife of an anti-Semitic king who lived a secret life as a Jew. Yet her predicament places her in the perfect position to rise up and save the Jewish people. On Purim, we raise ourselves up and bring joy to others with the beloved customs of feasting and sending gifts to the needy. Today in Israel, 1 out of 3 children is living in poverty. Help make the holiday a happy and joyous time for all of the Children of Israel!

Rick Joyner and Lance Wallnau Stand Together to Give This Word

JESSILYN JUSTICE  CHARISMA NEWS
Rick Joyner has been blasting truth on social media daily through his prophetic #RickRants, giving insight into the ins and outs of current events.
In a recent episode, he's joined by business consultant Lance Wallnau, who prophesied Donald Trump was like the biblical Cyrus. Together, the two have a word for us.
"I've been percolating on this idea that we have seen this historic move of God in the nation with the election," Wallnau says. 
The two prophetic voices are seeing parallels between the election and Hurricane Katrina. When the hurricane struck and the levees broke, the church wasn't ready for the lost reaching out to them. The casinos were. It was a missed opportunity, the two say.
"Here's what's burning in my spirit," Wallnau says. "I'm jumping out of my skin because I'm hearing people say stuff that on one hand, it's anointed, but on the other hand, I hear the datedness of how we think because we all go back to the old paradigm." 
Christ is love, but love has an edge, Wallnau says. What does that mean? Watch the video to see.

Kathi Pelton: "Divine Strategies for Breakthrough - Trust God and the Seeds He Plants!" - THE ELIJAH LIST

Kathi Pelton: "Divine Strategies for Breakthrough - Trust God and the Seeds He Plants!"


THE ELIJAH LIST Feb 28, 2017
Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:
There are times that we struggle with our circumstances and desires that have not happened yet...in our timing. It can be frustrating in the process of waiting for your breakthrough.
This word by Kathi Pelton will really help you to get a higher perspective as she shares:
God is not late nor is He silent. When our primary focus is on our natural need, even when they are good and necessary, then our discernment is tainted by what our natural eyes see and minds understand. This focus can rob us of the pure seed planted in our hearts by the Spirit.

We must trust God with the seeds that He plants in us. His words over us are wrapped in His faithful promises and never-ending love. They require the softness of our heart to grow deep roots and break through the ground of faith so that they will manifest in the earthly realm. We cannot demand how God grows the seed or when it will move from the soil of faith to the visible realm. We must allow the roots to go deep so that when trouble comes, our seed will not be plucked up while still in its tender beginnings.
Now that's a good word! I pray this article by Kathi will help you to get a better understanding...as He truly is bringing His Divine Breakthrough into your life! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List go here.)

Every month I receive scores of letters from Believers who are distraught, despairing, depressed and disillusioned. Sometimes, this can become overwhelming and requires me to go up higher in order to get above the noise and the atmosphere of hopelessness to find truth and greater revelation of the goodness of God and His perspective.
His Dwelling Place
Recently one morning, as I allowed God's Spirit to usher me into His tabernacle, I began to experience the contrast between Heaven and earth. Heaven is a realm where joy and peace are fully present; hopelessness and despair do not exist there. In the Lord's dwelling place His people are washed in His love and renewed by His truth. Our hearts are softened to receive seeds of revelation. 

As I spent time being revived today, I felt Heaven's longing for God's people to dwell—tabernacle—with Him so that they would receive breakthrough from depression and disillusionment and instead experience joy and peace.

There is a spiritual breakthrough that ushers in natural breakthroughs that many need. Often, if we are merely provided natural breakthroughs, we miss what is most needed to truly steward and enjoy what God intends to manifest in our lives. He is jealous for our affections and for a relationship of mutual longing that draws us into intimacy. King Jesus desires His Bride and her affections!
Summoned to Come Before the King
Psalm 45 is a beautiful Messianic song about the King marrying a princess. After describing the magnificent King, we then read about the bride:
The royal daughter is all glorious within the palace; her clothing is woven with gold.
She shall be brought to the King in robes of many colors; the virgin, her companions who follow her, shall be brought to You. With gladness and rejoicing they shall be brought; They shall enter the King's palace.
 (Psalm 45:13-15). (Photo via Pixabay)

We are being summoned to come to the place of His dwelling where our hearts are softened and we are made glorious by learning the ways of His Kingdom. We then share intimacy with Him and from that place our breakthrough comes, our requests are answered and our enemies are defeated by the glorious Mighty One who rides forth in victory (see Psalm 45:3-5; Revelation 19:11-16).
The Softened Heart Receives the Seed
The enemy seeks to harden our hearts through disappointments and perceived delays but the love of Christ restores and softens our hearts so that we will never doubt His love and intentions toward us. The enemy always seeks to divide us from the One who loves us the most, but God invites us into the deep affections of His love that unites us with Him, His Kingdom, His promises and truth. This unity is not circumstantial but secured by love. Our hearts are kept soft in the tender place of His affections and love.

Sometimes we are troubled about the words hardened hearts because we immediately assume it always refers to a person in rebellion. This can certainly be true; but it also refers to lack of understanding. The disciples of Jesus were often corrected for hardness of heart.
When God speaks a word to us they are like seeds planted in the soft soil of our hearts. We are often thrilled momentarily when God speaks a word or does marvelous works in us and through us, but when trouble comes, those "seeds" are easily plucked up if we allow our hearts to be dulled with the cares of this world.
As life's trials and troubles come, we must continually enter into the dwelling place (the secret place) with our King, where intimacy keeps our heart soft. We do not do this to get a natural result but rather to enter into the mutual affections with our God. The amazing thing is that as we show honor and reverence to God's words and activities in our lives, the soil of our hearts is kept soft and watered by His Word, and we will surely see natural results follow.

Discerning the Activities of God in Our Lives
It takes spiritual eyes and sensitivity to discern the movements of God in our everyday lives. Our focus must be turned from what isn't to what is. Sometimes His words come as a whisper and His movements like a gentle breeze moving through the branches of our lives, but as we seek first the King and His Kingdom we will discern His voice and His faithfulness through each day.

God is not late nor is He silent. When our primary focus is on our natural need, even when they are good and necessary, then our discernment is tainted by what our natural eyes see and minds understand. This focus can rob us of the pure seed planted in our hearts by the Spirit.

We must trust God with the seeds that He plants in us. His words over us are wrapped in His faithful promises and never-ending love. They require the softness of our heart to grow deep roots and break through the ground of faith so that they will manifest in the earthly realm. We cannot demand how God grows the seed or when it will move from the soil of faith to the visible realm. We must allow the roots to go deep so that when trouble comes, our seed will not be plucked up while still in its tender beginnings.
Do Not Worry
God knows your physical needs. We must trust Him with those details of our lives. He addresses this in His Word and God does not lie. Matthew 6 speaks so clearly His promise to care for our needs. Let these Words wash over you and free you from the burden that is weighing you down and shifting your focus from the spiritual vision to natural concerns:

"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? (Photo via Pixabay)
"So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
"Therefore do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." (Matthew 6:25-34).

God is jealous over us, over the seeds He's planted in our hearts and over the focus of our affections. He is our breakthrough; when we allow our hearts to be fully turned toward Him the doubts, fears, worries and despair fall away and the seeds of promise grow and flourish. The enemy tries to steal from us while the seed is still in the form of faith. It is in the secret place of intimacy and absolute trust that the planting of the Lord is protected and grows.

God is summoning His people into the chambers of His affections...and from those chambers we will see breakthroughs first in the spirit and then in the natural. Joy will come! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List go here.)

Are the Millennials the 'Saul' Generation? - JESSILYN JUSTICE CHARISMA NEWS

Are the Millennials the 'Saul' Generation?

JESSILYN JUSTICE  CHARISMA NEWS
Much like Saul, the first king of Israel, millennials appear to be abandoning the religion of their forefathers in favor of their own spin on Christianity. 
While some are still passionate about some aspects in the church, they've forsaken others.  
"We're raising a Saul generation that loves worship more than Word because it soothes their demons," evangelist Pat Schatzline says. "But God's calling for the Davids." 
Where are they? How is the Spirit raising the remnant up? Watch the video to see.

March 2017: The End Of A 100 Year Global Debt Super Cycle Is Way Overdue - Michael Snyder THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE BLOG

Global Debt Super Cycle - Public Domain

Posted: 27 Feb 2017   Michael Snyder  THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE BLOG

For more than 100 years global debt levels have been rising, and now we are potentially facing the greatest debt crisis in all of human history.  Never before have we seen such a level of debt saturation all over the planet, and pretty much everyone understands that this is going to end very, very badly at some point.  The only real question is when it will happen. 

Many believe that the current global debt super cycle began when the Federal Reserve was established in 1913.  Central banks are designed to create debt, and since 1913 the U.S. national debt has gotten more than 6800 times larger.  But of course it is not just the United States that is in this sort of predicament.  At this point more than 99 percent of the population of the entire planet lives in a nation that has a debt-creating central bank, and as a result the whole world is drowning in debt.

When people tell me that things are going to “get better” in 2017 and beyond, I find it difficult not to roll my eyes.  The truth is that the only way we can even continue to maintain our current ridiculously high debt-fueled standard of living is to grow debt at a much faster pace than the economy is growing.  We may be able to do that for a brief period of time, but giant financial bubbles like this always end and we will not be any exception.

Barack Obama and his team understood what was happening, and they were able to keep us out of a horrifying economic depression by stealing more than nine trillion dollars from future generations of Americans and pumping that money into the U.S. economy.  As a result, the federal government is now 20 trillion dollars in debt, and that means that the eventual crash is going to be far, far worse than it would have been if we would have lived within our means all this time.

Corporations and households have been going into absolutely enormous amounts of debt as well.  Corporate debt has approximately doubled since the last financial crisis, and U.S. consumers are now more than 12 trillion dollars in debt.

When you add all forms of debt together, America’s debt to GDP ratio is now about 352 percent.  I think that the following illustration does a pretty good job of showing how absolutely insane that is
If your brother earns $100,000 in annual income and borrowed $10,000 on his credit card, he could consume $110,000 worth of stuff.  In this example, his debt to his personal GDP is just 10%.  But what if he could get more credit year after year and reached a point where his total debt reached $352,000 but his income remained the same.  His personal debt-to-GDP ratio would now be 352%.
If he could borrow at super low interest rates, maybe he could sustain the monthly loan payments. Maybe?  But how much more could he possibly borrow?  What lender would lend him more?  And what if those low rates began to rise?  How much debt can his $100,000 income cover?  Essentially, he has reached the end of his own debt cycle.
The United States is certainly not alone in this regard.  When you look all over the industrialized world, you see similar triple digit debt to GDP figures.

When this current debt super cycle ultimately ends, it is going to create economic pain on a scale that will be unlike anything that we have ever seen before.  The following comes from King World News
That is the inevitable consequence of 100 years of credit expansion from virtually nothing to $250 trillion, plus global unfunded liabilities of roughly $500 trillion, plus derivatives of $1.5 quadrillion. This is a staggering total of $2.25 quadrillion. Therefore, the question is not what could go wrong since it is guaranteed that all these liabilities will implode at some point. And when they do, it will bring misery to the world of a magnitude that no one could ever imagine. It is of course very difficult to forecast the end of a major cycle. As this is unlikely to be a mere 100-year cycle but possibly a 2000-year cycle. It is also impossible to forecast how long the decline will take. Will it be gradual like the Dark Ages, which took 500 years after the fall of the Roman Empire? Or will the fall be much faster this time due to the implosion of the biggest credit bubble in world history? The latter is more likely, especially since the bubble will become a lot bigger before it implodes.
And there are certainly lots of signs that a global slowdown is already beginning.  For example, global trade growth has fallen below 2 percent for only the third time since the year 2000.  On each of the other occasions, we witnessed a horrible recession take place.  For more signs that economic conditions are deteriorating, please see my previous article entitled “Recession 2017? Things Are Happening That Usually Never Happen Unless A New Recession Is Beginning“.

Of course much of the globe is already in the midst of a horrible economic crisis.  Brazil is in the middle of their worst recession ever, and people are literally starving in Venezuela.  A new round of debt problems has erupted in Europe, with Greece, Portugal and Italy being the latest flashpoints.

Just like in 2007, many are mocking the idea that the a major economic downturn is coming to the United States.  They believe that the ridiculously high stock market valuations of today can stick around indefinitely, and they are putting their faith in politicians.

But it won’t be too long before a new economic crisis begins in America and the kind of civil unrest that I portray in “The Beginning Of The End” erupts all across the country.

I just don’t understand why more people cannot see this.  Government debt, corporate debt and consumer debt have all been growing much, much faster than the overall economy.  Can someone please explain to me how that could possibly be sustainable in the long-term?
Someone that I considered to be a mentor but that has since passed away once said that things would seem like they would be getting better for a little while before the next crash comes.

And it turned out that he was precisely correct.  We are in a season of time when economic conditions have appeared to be getting a little bit better in the United States, and this has blinded so many people to the truth of what is about to happen to us.
