TO THE FUTURE DIRECTION OF MORNINGSTAR: When I again assumed the helm of MorningStar, my main purpose was to seek the Lord for a new vision. He gave me the old vision. BOTTOM LINE: Nothing has changed in our mandate. So, what is our mandate? Help the bride of Christ make herself ready by: 1) Helping her prepare for and gather the harvest 2) Help her to understand and preach the gospel of the kingdom 3) Help her to see and live in His kingdom now 4) Help her make herself ready for the King The Lord then gave me a scripture: Matt 24:45-46: "Who then is the faithful and sensible slave whom his master put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time? "Blessed is that slave whom his master finds so doing when he comes." For this I was shown a prophetic community and teaching center. I was told we would be given a pulpit from which the messages preached would go throughout the world. This has been true for many years now. We take this charge to be like a spiritual chef for the Lord's household, and therefore try to only let those devoted to serving the very best, who use only the very best ingredients in what they serve, speak from it. These are the things that were given to me when I shown the ministry I was to start. Never did I presume that we were the only one, or the most important, but I got this mandate from the Lord, and I sought to fulfill this mandate with the devotion and excellence He deserves. We are preparing for what will be the greatest move of God since He walked the earth Himself. We are now at the consummation of this age, and the beginning of the one to come, which is His kingdom. Like the Morning Star that appears in the night sky before the sun rises, we are here to appear for just a short time, but with a great purpose--to announce the coming of the SON. Until now we have only been laying a foundation for this, but now the real work begins. We were not given this mandate to build an organization, but people. For this we were given a motto: "WE WILL NOT USE PEOPLE TO BUILD OUR MINISTRY, BUT WE WILL USE OUR MINISTRY TO BUILD PEOPLE." We are thankful for all of the remarkable people who have helped us to this point, but now the real work begins.
