Intro from Larry Sparks:

Steve ShultzReverend Betty King is a prophetic voice and ministry leader that I am just getting to know, but so many of my friends have celebrated her ministry, and now I have come to discover that God is using her as a global catalyst in prayer, intercession and spiritual warfare.

I believe what she is leading in Great Britain has the potential to measurably impact and shape culture for the Kingdom of God!

It's with great excitement that I encourage you to review this word, pray through and apply it, so you can see it come to fruition in your life. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Dear Saints,

Greeting and blessings to you in the name of our Lord Jesus! Even as people all around the world are looking for understanding and direction for the days ahead, I want to share a word with you from the Lord to strengthen and encourage you and help you to navigate through these important times.

John the Baptist Inquires of Jesus

As I spent time with the Lord, He led me into the depths of His Word in Matthew 11, and the many things taking place behind the scenes there; He gave me keys of understanding and wisdom for the Church in this season.

By the start of Matthew 11, Jesus had given authority to His disciples and sent them into the regions of Israel with the message of His Kingdom. John the Baptist, however, by this time, was confined in one of Herod's prisons and sent his own disciples to inquire of Jesus whether or not He really was the One Israel had been waiting for.

Firstly, we will look at John's situation and see what had led to all of this.

John's Confinement

John the Baptist was the forerunner for Jesus Christ, and the greatest among all those born of women according to Jesus' own words (Matthew 11:11). He had prepared the way for the Lord and brought a new era of righteousness to Israel, where even the tax collectors were seeking the will of the Lord through him, being baptized and changing the way they lived (Luke 3:12). John's anointing and influence brought him before rulers including Herod Antipas, ruler of Galilee, whom he spoke to in the truth of the Lord as a prophetic voice. In this place of influence, however, John became a pawn in someone else's struggle for power.

John had counseled Herod that it was not lawful for him to marry his brother Philip's wife, Herodias. Because of this, Herodias was holding a grudge against John. She knew very well that the alignment she wanted was wrong, but because of the power, influence and wealth that came with it, she was determined not to be hindered. Knowing that John was a voice of truth and an influence over Herod, Herodias schemed to beautify her daughter, Salome, in such a way that when she danced for Herod on his birthday, he promised with an oath to give her whatever she wished. She asked for John to be beheaded.

Although Herod knew John was a godly and righteous man and that the request was unjust, he did not want to be embarrassed in front of his guests and granted Salome's wish. He had allowed himself to be seduced into making an ungodly arrest and into silencing the voice of the Lord in his life and nation.

As one who seeks the counsel of the Lord and His prophetic voice, you need to make sure that you are not seduced by the dance of power in this season, or baited into doing what is ungodly. The need for power and provision, for influence, for a kingdom, and the various agendas that people are so desperate to fulfill have caused many people to lose their sense and discernment. For the sake of power, or whatever it is that they desire, some have become motivated to ignore or even cut off the true voice of God where it would stop them from having what they want.

In this season, be sure to protect yourself from being involved in the wrong alignments, ungodly entanglements and power struggles out of which these things arise and in which people become pawns to be used to serve an agenda. Take care not to... (continue reading)
