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

Beloved mentee,

I’m easing back into the swing of things as I continue seeking His face concerning next steps and direction and today in prayer He spoke this and I knew to share it with you.

As you may or may not know or recall, glory is defined as the character, nature, and power of Yahweh. He’s spent that past two years teaching you, through me, about glory primarily from the aspect of His character and nature because this is the order in which He releases glory to us. So many folks in ministry speak of glory from the power aspect only (i.e., doing the works of Yahushua) and yet fail to speak of the character and nature of Yahushua and Yahweh (i.e., the being like Father and the Son).

Today’s post focuses on the power aspect of His glory and further defines glory based on the Hebrew word kabowd pronounced kä·vōde’. Kabowd means honor, splendor, abundance, dignity, reputation, reverence, riches, magnificence, and precious things. The figurative meaning of this word is heaviness, to be weighty/influential. In light of this, Yahweh is asking, “Are you seeking honor, splendor, abundance, dignity, a reputation, reverence, riches, magnificence, precious things, and to be influential from other people?”

“For we never used flattering speech, as you know, or had greedy motives —God is our witness and we didn’t seek glory from people, either from you or from others.” – 1 Thess 2:5-6 HCSB

We see from the above scripture this is not what we should do. As a ministry leader, those who you have preached the gospel to that have receive it and are imitating you as you imitate Christ are the people who become your glory and joy. Look at this:

“For who is our hope, or joy, or crown of boasting in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming? Is it not you? For you are our glory and joy!” – 1 Thess 2:19-20 HCSB

You see, unmade leaders seek glory from men, and made leaders cause others to become glorious, honorable, rich, weighty, prosperous, influential men. Which kind of leader are you . . . made or unmade? If unmade, you can begin the making process by clicking here.

With rich glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Many of us spend so much time with Yahweh working on us that we never get to the greater works of Christ. The quicker you yield, submit, and obey to the making, the quicker you get to do and be the greater works. Many of us are hesitant, disobedient, and so slow to obey that we spend a lifetime in the making process. Don’t be like the children of Israel wandering 40 years in the same stubborn, hard-headed place. You can move from glory to glory as fast or as slow as you desire based on your level of submission and obedience. Why is it taking so long, you ask? Because you keep doing the same thing I’ve told you to give up, yield, and surrender to Me.

Our prayer: LORD, help me not get in my own way; deliver me from me!

Securely and lavishly,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Mentee,

In yesterday’s post, I was led to share an excerpt from The Making and today He has me continuing in this vein.  So here it is:

“Character is leveling for us. Character is to us what the earth is to magnets.  What would happen to magnets if the earth was destroyed?  The earth’s pull would de-magnetize it.  What else could impact the attraction and repulsion of a magnet if the earth no longer exists?  The pull from out space would remain and attract and repel objects.  The same is true for us.  God wants us to remove our earth (i.e., our fleshy, hard and resistant lower nature comprised of our mind, will, intellect) and be attracted to the pull of the supernatural.  The earth is to magnets what character is to glory.  God’s will is already done in heaven.  We are waiting for earth to catch up with it.  I dare say, we are waiting for “our earth” to catch up with heaven.”

There you have it, mentee.  We are not at a lost for leaders. There are a plethora of leaders, but there aren’t a lot of leaders who possess Yahweh’s character.  My prayer is that you are becoming all He wants you to be and allowing Him to make you into the glorious vessel that He intends that you may shine brightly for Him.  Until the next post, let the bright light of His nature pull you into the supernatural.  It’s time to kill our own flesh that He may live through us.

Grace and glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Mentee,

I’m led by Yahweh to share an excerpt from The Making with you today.

“Character is what grounds you to be able to move in His glory and power. Character becomes like a magnet’s grounding source.  Character grounds you to move in the glory just like a paper clip grounds a magnet. Metal neutralizes a magnet so it won’t charge or blow up what attaches to it.  So it is with character.  You need character so you won’t blow up yourself or become “charged” about you. You need character to neutralize you!”

My prayer is that if you have gleaned anything from this blog it is that character is the key living in Yahweh’s glory.  Stay tuned in right here as I share another excerpt.

True glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

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

We call a mentoring time out today and focus on those who may have googled a phrase and ended up here and don’t know glory personified in the person of Yahshua (Jesus).  We issue a call to glory today.  You are an eternal being.  Do you know where you’ll spend eternity when you die?  It is appointed to all men to die.  We are all sinners.  Don’t be offended or click away because of that statement.  If you’ve ever told a lie, stole, or cheated, that’s sin.  We all have done these types of things (and in some instances worse).  The good news is that Yahshua died as the perfect sacrifice to atone our sin and redeem us from the curse of death.  There is an eternal separation from Yahweh, the Creator, and that is hell.  Everyone wants to go to heaven when asked, but don’t have a clue how to they are going to arrive there.  I’m giving you the key today.  There is only one way to get there and that is to go through door named Yahshua (Jesus).  There is only way to Father Yahweh (God), and it is through His son, Yahshua (Jesus).

Have you decided to allow Yahshua (Jesus) to remove your sins, reconcile you back to Yahweh (God), and receive the gift of eternal life with Him?  Don’t stop here; I want to pray with you to ensure you have officially met Him!  Reach out to me here.  I long to pray with you.

20 For no person will be justified (made righteous, acquitted, and judged acceptable) in His sight by observing the works prescribed by the Law. For [the real function of] the Law is to make men recognize and be conscious of sin [not mere perception, but an acquaintance with sin which works toward repentance, faith, and holy character].

21 But now the righteousness of God has been revealed independently and altogether apart from the Law, although actually it is attested by the Law and the Prophets,

22 Namely, the righteousness of God which comes by believing with personal trust and confident reliance on Jesus Christ (the Messiah). [And it is meant] for all who believe. For there is no distinction,

23 Since all have sinned and are falling short of the honor and glory [b]which God bestows and receives.

24 [All] are justified and made upright and in right standing with God, freely and gratuitously by His grace (His unmerited favor and mercy), through the redemption which is [provided] in Christ Jesus, - Romans 3:20-24 AMP

For the wages which sin pays is death, but the [bountiful] free gift of God is eternal life through (in union with) Jesus Christ our Lord. – Romans 6:23 AMP

If this confusing to you, read about a man who Yahshua helped what it all means?  I await your call.

Saved by glory,

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

16 And the LORD said unto Moses, Gather unto me seventy men of the elders of Israel, whom thou knowest to be the elders of the people, and officers over them; and bring them unto the tabernacle of the congregation, that they may stand there with thee.

17 And I will come down and talk with thee there: and I will take of the spirit which is upon thee, and will put it upon them; and they shall bear the burden of the people with thee, that thou bear it not thyself alone.

The Hebrew word for the bolded phrase in the above scripture is suwm (pronounced sum and is Strong’s 7760).  This word means to make, make for, transform into, fashion, work, bring to pass, appoint, give, to set, ordain, and to establish.  As ministers, we get so caught up in being ordained, established, and mentored by man, but miss the fact that there are still some folks Yahweh raises up, makes, transforms, and establishes all by Himself . . . by His Hands.  Did He or someone else lay their hands on you?  Neither of these is bad and is not greater than the other.  There are some people who He personally delegates authority and power so they in turn can delegate and impart to others, like Moses in this passage of scripture.  Then there are those men and women who He works through to lay hands, fashion, make, transform to His image like me, Apostle Paul and Yahshua.  The important thing is that He’s laid or is laying His hands on you.  Is He . . . has He?

Honorable glory,

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
