A friends of mine sent me a text saying, “What did you think of the News article that mentioned you?”
To be honest, I wasn't sure if I should be pleased or concerned. It should not be that way, but when the wacky left drives up your Google ranking as a “False Prophet” you start to twitch when the media comes around. When I heard it was Kelly Wright from Fox News I breathed a lot easier.
Article: https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/2013/10/02/god-and-government-slimdown/
Kelly is one of the journalists on the Media Mountain I want to see keep climbing. You need to know who he is. His increasingly outspoken faith filled worldview has him under fire, but he is not backing down.
So what do you think of his article? What is your take on God-Government and the financial D.C. Diet debate?
This article spoke right into my heart. An example of 7 Mountain student..
Way to go Lance! In the middle of a national crisis, the God given wisdom of your words ring clear!
Also, I will be remebering to pray for you.
Dont mean to sound dogmatic here, but I think everyone else should be too.
Whether you agree with Lance or not, this will open up doors for him to preach the gospel to more people.
Just like Paul asked the church to pray for him, that he would have the supply of the Holy Spirit when he preached, I am hoping and praying that you are abundantly suplied with the Holy spirit when the big attention comes your way- when millions are listening to your responses.
Hey guys & gals. This could turn into a big moment of opportunity here. If Lance is the man God has chosen to be in the spotlight, it would help us all (those of us concerned about the gospel getting out) if we prayed for him to shine when the moment comes- not so that Lance will look good, but rather that God would be glorified.
So; if you dont agree with the way this went down, please get over it- and pray for this man that he will have words of wisdom, words anointed by the Holy ghost that will bring conviction to this generation. Pray that Gof will use Lance in whatever capacity he can to be a part of bringing awakening to the Church and the United States of America.
In short, AWESOME! Never heard of Kelly before, but will be tuning into his perspectives. The stage is ready, the actors positioned – let us see what the Lord wants to do!
Hey Lance, it’s great that Kelly see’s his roll in the media as a higher calling and specifically that he wants to help remove some of the toxicity that has developed there. Anything that lessens the bitterness and rancor is good. However, there is division in our government not just just because of selfishness or corruption, but because of fundamental differences in what we believe is the correct course for our country. As I understand it, your hope for believers to exercise more influence on the seven mountains is not just so we can manage these areas better with more humility and mercy, but so that America is led down the Godly course. For me, wisdom is not only in seeing what that course should be, but also in learning how to show others that that course is the wise one. That does indeed take humility and love. But also forbearance, persistence and an unrelenting desire to seek God’s ways in all things.
For the current government shutdown, the heart of the matter goes back to the president seeking to pass the healthcare law with NO bipartisan support. This was unwise, for it birthed the law in division.
Take care.
The article was very favorable towards you. Thanks for sharing it.
This is so encourgaing. We are going through your teaching session by session in our churches Wednesday evening services. When we see articles like this one it encourages us to move out and start popping those vacuums we created by retreating. Believing to see this especially in our schools where we re-engage with our PTA’s, community meetings, etc. Praying for higher heights for Mr. Kelly!!
FANTASTIC!!! Thank you, Lance!
This was extremely helpful. I started out simply reading through but almost immediately started praying through the points being made. At the end of the post, I had tears streaming down my face, and my soul felt released of a burden somehow. And so, I would like to see more of this kind of insider post from the Faithful, that not only inform but also provide us with food for prayer. Thank you, Lance!
Your comments are very useful. The left shouldn’t have any problems with them, because if closely read, the Seven Mountains track with the seven deadly sins that Gandhi quoted, and Gandhi is certainly someone who is quoted comfortably in modern circles.
Micah 6 is very appropriate to these times, including 1, 2, 9, 12 and 13. “Arise, plead your case before the mountains …” Those are the seven mountains that we are supposed to be far up on, instead of just pleading before.
People are nervous and afraid, not knowing what is real truth to listen to, because in many cases we haven’t been listening to and acting on truth for too long.
