The Making Ministry Blog (2 Corinthians 3:18 AMP)

Wisdom from the throne . . . “Worldly folk demand and look for respect, but the righteous seek honor from the LORD.”

Mentee, I pray that the training you are receiving is purifying your ministry motives.  We must be striped and purged of worldly mindsets in order to be used to our fullest glory capacity in Christ Yahshua (Christ Jesus).  I admonish you today to submit to the purging, purifying, and making process that He may bestow more than respect on you.  Trust me respect is fleeting, temporal and honor is eternal and everlasting.  Yahshua showed us this as they cried Hosanna, Hosanna one minute and the next minute, according to them, He was casting out devils by the prince of devils Beelzebub himself.

LORD, keep your mentees looking, craving, and seeking You the Rewarder who rewards us with eternal merit and virtue.

But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. – Hebrews 11:6

Gloriously,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

I also mentor prophets in an online school.  Recently, Yahweh gave them an assignment that uncovered onyx in the realm of the Spirit (e.g., hidden manna).  I’m sharing what Ruach haKodesh uncovered because I believe it will minister, mentor, and bless you too.  He unveiled that there are people who can, do, and are utterly willing to submit to powerless spiritual oversight (e.g., pastors, prophets, apostles, etc.).

If Yahweh graces and appoints someone He wants me to submit to, the glory will be evident in their life.  So when I’m submitted to them, I’m really submitting to the glory, which we know from our earlier mentoring sessions is also Yahshua.  Take a look at the leader you are submitted to and ask yourself, “Am I submitted to glory?”  Some clear signs are the character of Yahweh, fruit of the Spirit, powerful works (i.e., signs, wonders, miracles, and the ability to delegate authority).

1 AND JESUS summoned to Him His twelve disciples and gave them power and authority over unclean spirits, to drive them out, and to cure all kinds of disease and all kinds of weakness and infirmity.

2 Now these are the names of the twelve apostles (special messengers): first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

3 Philip and Bartholomew [Nathaniel]; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus [Judas, not Iscariot];

4 Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.

5 Jesus sent out these twelve, charging them, Go nowhere among the Gentiles and do not go into any town of the Samaritans;

6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. – Matthew 10:16 AMP

“The sheep must see power in their shepherd or else they will live ordinary lives!” – Apostle Stanley Pina


Summoned by glory,

6 On that day I lifted up My hand and swore to them to bring them out of the land of Egypt to a land that I had searched out for them, flowing with milk and honey, [a land] which is an ornament and a glory to all lands.

7 Then said I to them, Let every man cast away the abominable things on which he feasts his eyes, and defile not yourselves with the idols of Egypt; I am the Lord your God.

The land that flows with milk and honey is a land free from defilement and idols.

>>>>– A glorious land honors Yahweh’s (God’s) name
>>>>– A glorious land is an obedient land
>>>>– A glorious land forsakes all other gods
>>>>– A glorious land is a land that is separated and consecrated for Yahweh’s use

A land with these attributes shines brightly with Yahweh’s glory.  This used to be true of the USA, but it isn’t anymore.  We have turned to the god of sex, religion, fame, perversion, success, etc.  Can it be said of you that you are Yahweh’s ornament and a glorious land?

With honorable glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

I’d rather have secret place promotion any day than public empty promotion.  Yes, secret place promotion.  Said differently, promotion in prayer, elevation in who you pray for and what Yahweh reveals about them to you, and greater service via intercession.  This is the greatest promotion.  It’s greater than promotion in title only, but no power.  You can do exploits, stop rain, and other supernatural works in prayer.  Can your title do that?  Can your promotion do that?  Id’ rather have a ministry of powerful prayer versus a powerless ministry full of grandiose titles and worldly, materialistic trappings.  Today, I stand in my place of power and delegated authority and that place is prayer . . . a prayer room, on the lap and by the side of my Father.

Room (The below is that of which He speaks through me today.)
Strong’s 4725 (a condition of the body or mind, home, country, place, a standing spot, open locality, station, post, a region, a quarter, a direction, a place to exist . . . an abode, habitation)

O earth, cover not my blood, and let my cry have no resting-place [where it will cease being heard]. – Job 16:18

Thank you, Yahweh for this resting place of prayer you’ve given me and thank you that there will be no delay when I cry out in prayer.  My prayers come before you immediately.  There is tarrying, no obstructions, and no delay in them reaching your throne room, and You answer and hear me straightaway.  My prayer for you is that through this post, ministry motives have been purified and that the heart of ministry has gripped you and caused your eyes to be wide opened to what’s really important and where the true power lies in ministry.

Go to your room, mentee!  Yes, today momma is sending you to your room.  It’s for your making, transformation, and for those who are assigned your hands.  They need you to habitate, linger, and stay in your room.

Resting in glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Yesterday we laid the foundation of this lesson by exposing the deeds and actions of professing ministers who deceive themselves and others into believing Yahweh’s glory is with them.  The Isaiah passage of scripture tells us that the righteous will eat the fruit of their deeds. The glorious fruit of the righteous can be eaten in its entirety.  They become a habitation of His glory.  The food and the fruit they dispense fulfill the spiritual hunger of those who are hungering and thirsting after glorious manifestations and results.

The Lord stands up to contend, and stands to judge the peoples and His people. – Isaiah 3:13 AMP

The day where your actions and speech are being judged is here and woe to the wicked for what their hands and mouth have done.  Woe to the proud and arrogant who have flaunted their sins before Yahweh’s eyes and provoked His glory.  He is standing at attention and every leader that is causing others to err and tripping them up on this path shall behold His glory, but not in the way they tout.  For He has entered into glorious judgment with them.  Let’s not ever forget the judgment attribute of His glory.

10 Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.

11 Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with them, for what their hands have done shall be done to them. – Isaiah 3:10-11 AMP

With fresh glory on me,

⁸For Jerusalem is ruined and Judah is fallen, because their speech and their deeds are against the Lord, to provoke the eyes of His glory and defy His glorious presence.

⁹Their respecting of persons and showing of partiality witnesses against them; they proclaim their sin like Sodom; they do not hide it. Woe to them! For they have brought evil [as a reward upon themselves].

¹⁰Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, for they shall eat the fruit of their deeds.

¹¹Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with them, for what their hands have done shall be done to them. - Isaiah 3:8-11 AMP

There are professing ministers of the gospel who deceive themselves and others about Yahweh’s glorious presence abiding and dwelling and moving amongst them.  As the scriptures shows their actions (and speech) are against Yahweh.  Of course, it’s not the actions and speech that we see that matters, but what Yahweh sees with His eyes, and what He sees them doing and saying is provoking His glory and defying His glory, not reverencing, but irritating His glory.  So, then how could His glory be dwelling, abiding, and moving in their midst?

Embracing glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Elohim (God) is so secure in who He is that He is allowing Satan to do what he does (steal, kill, and destroy) until His appointed time to live eternally in the lake of fire.  In this we see and identify another making mark for us, and the mark is security.  Here is how He worked this facet of His glory in me.

As you know, I’m His prophet and He tells me to do and say things to others.  He prompts me to pray for others and He leads me to write prayers and send them to others.  Well, I’m sure you can imagine that everybody isn’t jumping up and down, grateful, or receptive to the things He has me share.  For a season, this caused me to really doubt I was hearing from Him, and Satan played with me mentally by contesting the words of God flowing through me.  He did this for many years, and finally God did a couple of things with and through me that brought me great freedom and security.  The first is that what He said came to pass swiftly.  This reassured me, “Yes, Karen you heard Me and now you see Me!”  The second is through this my faith began to increase and my relationship with Him deepened.  Third as our relationship deepened, the concern for others receptivity (i.e., I receive that or I don’t receive this), acknowledgment of the word, and even a response that they received the word (e.g., the word physically or electronically reached them) began to dissipate.  He began to minister to me about how He healed 10 lepers and only one came back grateful, receptive, and appreciative.  So if this is true of Yeshua, who is always our example, then it will be true of me.

Over time I began to see and experience secure glory in me.  Knowing that He is pleased with my obedience and responds to it became more important than man’s response or lack thereof.  Has the mark of secure glory been formed in your as it was in Yeshua and me?  It can . . . let’s pray.

Elohim (God) bring me to the place that I’m 100% free from man’s response no matter how they respond (e.g., positively, negatively, neutrally, or at all).  Increase my relationship with You so much so that I can feel, discern, and revel in how pleased you are by my unmovable faith and obedience. Set me free and birth security in me.

For those who have come into a measure of secure glory, I pray He will increase your steadfastness and devotion to Him, and as He does so, I pray that you find yourself in the next level of secure glory that you need at this time in your life and ministry.  He’s doing it now . . . secure glory, secure glory is the portion of those who have been set free and advanced today through the ministry of this post.

I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust! – Psalm 91:2 AMP

For additional support and ministry on this topic:  See Psalm 122:7, Isaiah 54:17, 2 Corinthians 1:22

Embracing secure glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

We continue to pull back the covers on false glory. Have you read or listened to something a minister wrote or spoke and immediately afterward or during the message/writing you start feeling like, “Are they talking about me?” or you think, “Hmm . . .  that feels like a dig aimed t me to kick me down a couple of notches in my Godly confidence.”  If so, what you are discerning (perhaps unknowingly) is a characteristic of false glory.  This characteristic can be found in the below scripture:

We have renounced disgraceful ways (secret thoughts, feelings, desires and underhandedness, the methods and arts that men hide through shame); we refuse to deal craftily (to practice trickery and cunning) or to adulterate or handle dishonestly the Word of God, but we state the truth openly (clearly and candidly). And so we commend ourselves in the sight and presence of God to every man’s conscience. – 2 Corinthians 4:2 AMP

When you handle the Word of God deceitfully or craftily, the Word is mixed with an ulterior motive, another agenda, manipulation, witchcraft (defined as an attempt to bend or twist the will of another via cunning mental stratagem).  You see, truth is coming forth as it’s the Word which is true glory, but the spirit behind the Word is false glory.  It’s the antithesis of John 4:24; worship in Spirit and Truth.  Our spirit must be pure, holy as His Word emanates from us or else all we are releasing is a false glory that entangles others in more bondage versus set them free.   I pray this characteristic of false glory be far from you, mentee as you go forth to do His work.  I also pray that this post exercised your spiritual senses (e.g., discernment – Hebrews 5:14) even the more as we must start calling false glory, false glory and not backing up off or down to what we are seeing and discerning.

Responding to true glory,

P.S. – Another classic example of this is using the pulpit to address something that should have Matthew 18:15-17 applied to the matter.

We’ve (Hashem, Ruach HaKodesh, and Yeshua) spent close to a year mentoring in the glory of God. By now, you should recognize it, be intimately acquainted with it, be living in it, and clearly distinguish the fruit of it. This is so important as you embark on all He’s assigned you’re hands. There is a false glory that exists in the church world and many are afraid to call it what it is. They skate around it, tell others to not judge less they be judged, to love like God, etc. I can fully recognize a false vessel and false glory by their fruit. Check out what they are doing versus what they are saying! Do the two match up . . . is there spiritual agreement? Either it is or it isn’t. The answer is yes or no here, mentee. Stop shrinking back on the belief and teaching you’ve learned here. Elohim (God) is no respecter of persons. Either it is a good tree bringing forth good, holy fruit or it isn’t. Let’s pray:

Father, awaken the spiritual senses of Your mentees and cause them to fully recognize and confront (by the Spirit) the false glory in their midst. We’ve learned that whenever You arise in Your people, the false arises simultaneously. May our spiritual eyes be fully opened so that we will not be seduced, deceived, tripped up, taken off course, or manipulated. Make us strong, set our faces like flint, and keep our feet pointed on the straight and narrow road of true glory. It is through Yeshua’s name we pray and it is so in heaven and on the earth.

¹⁵Beware of false prophets, who come to you dressed as sheep, but inside they are devouring wolves.

¹⁶You will fully recognize them by their fruits. Do people pick grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

¹⁷Even so, every healthy (sound) tree bears good fruit [worthy of admiration], but the sickly (decaying, worthless) tree bears bad (worthless) fruit.

¹⁸A good (healthy) tree cannot bear bad (worthless) fruit, nor can a bad (diseased) tree bear excellent fruit [worthy of admiration].

¹⁹Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.

²⁰Therefore, you will fully know them by their fruits. – Matthew 7:15-20 AMP

And he said to Him, These things, all taken together, I will give You, if You will prostrate Yourself before me and do homage and worship me. – Matthew 4:9 AMP

When most of us hear the phrase down time, we think of a time to wind down, relax, and simply doing nothing.  Well, this is The Making mentoring blog and therefore, this blog is all about making you into a more accurate reflection of His glory. What better way to accomplish than to have some “down time.” The down time He’s speaking of through me has nothing to do with winding down, relaxing, and doing nothing.  The down time He’s requiring of all of us is the time when we fall down on our face before Him to seek Him and to press in for more revelation, sanctification, holiness, wisdom, truth, and love. So many of us have taken Satan up on his “down time offer” because of what he offers us.  When is the last time you took Yahweh up on his offer, worshiped him,  and had some real “down time?”

Captivated by glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina
