90.7 Hope FM radio theme verse for last week: Isa 43:18 "Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. 19 Behold, I will do a new thing, Now it shall spring forth; Shall you not know it?”

Key Scripture from our message last week: Php 3:13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, 14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Jesus commanded us to walk in unconditional love and unconditional forgiveness, but if we are holding on to past hurts, offences, shame, guilt, rejection and unforgiveness, it is almost impossible to “reach forward” and “press toward the goal” of our calling of God in Christ Jesus. God wants to do a “new thing” in our lives, but will we let go of the old? The new thing is God’s Morning Star Authority “arising” in our hearts (2 Pet 1:19). God’s Morning Star Authority isn’t new to us, but we have not yet fully embraced and walked in it.

Prepare Arise and Speak

Jeremiah was a prophet in Judah for 40 years. The Book of Jeremiah is the longest in the Bible. When Jeremiah started his ministry as a young man, Josiah was king and he begun a reformation by tearing down the pagan high places. King Josiah was killed in battle at Megiddo in 609 B.C. His sons proceeded him on the throne and were not good kings. Jeremiah warned them of their ungodly political policies, but they would not listen. His ministry was from 626 B.C. to 586 B.C. Jeremiah had a heart for the people even though they mistreated him. He is one of the most Christlike personalities in the Old Testament. He preached each person is responsible for his or her own sin, but collectively as a nation, they would be held accountable. He warned them if they did not repent, they would be taken captive by the Babylonians. Today we face the stronghold of spiritual Babylon over America and the world.

God told Jeremiah “Behold, I will make My words in your mouth fire” (5:14). It is time for us to “speak fire”, God’s Word to the government, schools and culture to consume the tares and the chaff as the wheat (God’s children) are gathered in the barn and protected, (Matt 13:30). We are warring against a Marxist-Luciferian system called Babylon, but it is falling!
Elijah called down fire (1 Kings 18) and the end-time Two Witnesses will speak with fire (Rev 11:5).

2026 Theme Scripture: Jer 1:16-19

16 I will utter My judgments Against them concerning all their wickedness, Because they have forsaken Me, Burned incense to other gods, And worshiped the works of their own hands.
*17 "Therefore prepare yourself and arise, And speak to them all that I command you. Do not be dismayed before their faces, Lest I dismay you before them.
18 For behold, I have made you this day A fortified city and an iron pillar, And bronze walls against the whole land—Against the kings of Judah, Against its princes, Against its priests, And against the people of the land.
(Kings: government, Princes: commerce/business, Priests: religious system, People: those involved)
19 They will fight against you, But they shall not prevail against you. For I am with you," says the LORD, "to deliver you."

God said He will send Elijah before the Great and Terrible Day of the Lord (Mal 4:5)
God’s Elijahs (spiritual authority) are anointing His King Jehus (governmental authority) to throw down Jezebel-Babylon! They have prepared themselves and now God is calling them to arise! Together, they speak the Word of God with boldness and fire as God has placed His hand upon them lifting them up. Prepare! Arise! Speak! Don’t be dismayed! God is with us, His hand is on us!

PREPARE: Literally means to “gird up your loins,” to get ready, to stand up, to wrap or strap something on.
Webster: to make ready beforehand for some purpose, use, or activity. To put in a proper state of mind. To work out the details of a plan in advance. To put into written form.

We have “prepared ourselves” over the past several years for such a time as this. In unity, we have been calling down the fire of God over the Thumb (2012 Prayer Drive) to destroy the altars of Baal and to protect God’s children. We control the gates (Gen 22:17). Our minds have been set on God’s authority and we control the gates over Huron, Tuscola, Sanilac and St. Clair Counties.

Elijah had just called down the fire of God upon Mount Carmel and he executed the prophets of Baal. He then told King Ahab an abundance of rain was coming (ending a 3-years drought). This was in the hope of restoring Israel back to God. A heavy rain came. Then King Ahab went in his chariot to Jezreel. It was a 25 mile journey.

1 Ki 18:46 Then the hand of the LORD came upon Elijah; and he girded up his loins and ran ahead of Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.

Elijah gave honor to the King by running ahead of his chariot. Again, Elijah hoping for a reformation in Israel, but Jezebel (King Ahab’s wife) was furious and threatened to kill Elijah. King Ahab and Jezebel had a chance to repent and “make a deal” to turn back to God, but in their pride, they would not let go of their wickedness.

1 Ki 19:16 God tells Elijah to anoint Jehu as king over Israel and to anoint Elisha to take his place. Elijah was taken to Heaven in a chariot of fire. Elisha picked up Elijah’s mantle.

2 Ki 9:1 And Elisha the prophet called one of the sons of the prophets, and said to him, "Get yourself ready, (gird up your loins) take this flask of oil in your hand, and go to Ramoth Gilead. This prophet went and anointed Jehu as King.

Several years later, King Jehu confronted Jezebel in her tower (at Jezreel) and he commanded the eunuchs to “Throw her down!” thus fulfilling the prophecy about her death (2 Kings Chapter 9).

Johnathan Cahn said President Trump is a paradigm to King Jehu. Spiritually, Jezebel is the Queen of Babylon which is the world culture in rebellion against God and His Word. It is the Marxist-Luciferian system over America and the world.
Many people also believe President Trump is a type of King Cyrus. This is what God said about Cyrus:
Isa 45:4-5 For Jacob My servant's sake, And Israel My elect, I have even called you by your name; I have named you, though you have not known Me. 5 I am the LORD, and there is no other; There is no God besides Me. I will gird you, though you have not known Me, God called King Cyrus by name 150 years before he was born! King Cyrus delivered God’s people from Babylon.

Get Yourself Ready! God is waiting on us to realize who we are in Christ and our God-given delegated authority called the Morning Star Authority. God is looking for those whose heart is loyal to Him, to show His power through them (2 Chron 16:9 and Eph 3:10).

2Ki 4:29 Then he said to Gehazi, "Get yourself ready, (gird up your loins) and take my staff in your hand, and be on your way. If you meet anyone, do not greet him; and if anyone greets you, do not answer him; but lay my staff on the face of the child." God doing a miracle to bring a child back to life using Gehazi.

1Sa 25:13 Then David said to his men, "Every man gird on his sword." So every man girded on his sword, and David also girded on his sword. And about four hundred men went with David, and two hundred stayed with the supplies.

Eph 6:14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

2Sa 22:40-41 For You have armed me (girded) with strength for the battle; You have subdued under me those who rose against me. 41 You have also given me the necks of my enemies, So that I destroyed those who hated me.

Prepare yourself, arise and speak what God commands us! Do not be dismayed by their faces, for God has given us the victory!
