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

There have been so many things happening as I’ve pressed further in to the secret place in my prayer time. This is where I am finding myself:

37 As He was approaching [the city], at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to rejoice and to praise God [extolling Him exultantly and] loudly for all the mighty miracles and works of power that they had witnessed,

38 Crying, Blessed (celebrated with praises) is the King Who comes in the name of the Lord! Peace in heaven [freedom there from all the distresses that are experienced as the result of sin] and glory (majesty and splendor) in the highest [heaven]! – Luke 19:37-38 AMP

I’ve been extolling Him loudly; I’ve been crying; I’ve been brought to my knees to worship; I am overwhelmed by the glory and by the King of Glory. Whoever said, “quiet” is the only way missed this scripture and this one:

He replied, I tell you that if these keep silent, the very stones will cry out. – Luke 19:40 – AMP

I issue a spiritual dare to you:

* Increase time dwelling in the secret place

* Get specific about the stubborn things in your life, ministry, and the life of others. Allow Holy Spirit to direct you to the scriptures to stand in for those “hard” issues. Here’s one to start you off with: Alas, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and by Your outstretched arm! There is nothing too hard or too wonderful for You. – Jeremiah 32:17 KJV

* When you see Him beginning to move miraculously do a Luke 19:37-39, and I decree the glory of Elohim will overtake you and overwhelm you.

I am overwhelmed by glory!

Captivated by glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

When you are under the cloud, you only move when He says move.   You don’t make hasty moves when you are under the cloud because you know His protection and power may not follow.  What hasty moves (i.e., financial, ministerial, business, family decisions) are you making?  It’s a dangerous thing to move when the cloud isn’t moving.  It can hurt your life and the life of others.

Mentee, if we are going to live in the glory, we have to learn to move with the cloud, stay under the cloud, and how to cause others to come under the cloud.  I pray that your spiritual senses become heightened to when God wants you to stay, advance, or move forward.  There is a fresh glory under the cloud, and books are birthed; ministries are born; new Kingdom legislation is established.  Many blessings await you, mentee under the cloud.  The blessings of safety, audibly clear communication with God, and divine instructions for those He’s called you to lead are under the cloud.

Captivated by glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

As God takes you into His glory and the very holiness of His temple, He’ll call you to look away for a season.  He does this so we can see what He sees.  As I was so caught up in my pursuit of His glory, He caused me to look away by giving me a dream that exposes profane priests, leaders, and prophets.  He took me in His chamber and counseled me on how to prophetically speak to what He sees.  Mentee, there is a time to look away from the manifested glory to look at what the manifested glory is looking at.  That time is now!  I invite you into the hidden chamber of glory.

Go to:  Ezekiel 8 to explore this.

Focused on glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

I’ve mentored you in the area of The Rich Treasury of His Glory containing all the strength you’ll ever need to complete the things He’s assigned your hands.  I pray you are tapping into the treasury even now.  This must become a spiritual discipline in your life, minister.  We can do nothing without Him, and we certainly can’t do ministry in our strength (Zechariah 4:6, John 15).  I know I have been talking about being strengthened a lot lately, and it is needed.  Look around you, “How many spiritually weak, impotent, and powerless leaders do you see?”  Exactly!

This is an important and pressing agenda item in the meetings I’m having with Elohim (God).  So, this is why He’s talking to you about it.  Even if the adjectives in the question posed about ministers does not describe you, you are deceived if you don’t think you need to tap into His strength in the way He’s been describing here.  We can’t even pray for hours without being strengthened by Holy Spirit.  If we can’t do even that in our own strength, what makes us think we can demonstrate His glory without virtue and strength leaving our body?  We can’t!  We must tap into the treasury daily in prayer.

Today, I prayed, “Lord, give me the strength and strategies I need to continue at this accelerated pace of Your glory.”  Mentee, you need to pray this prayer too.  Why?  It’s living, active, and powerful because it’s His words that He spoke through me to me (John 6:68)!  After I prayed this prayer, revelation overtook me and I started writing this to you.  The revelation is:  We need His strength and His strategies.”  The strategies God gives us brings us the strength we need to do His work.  The strategies free us up to focus on “the fish,” not the loaves.  When you aren’t bogged down with the cares of the world, you have tons of strength.  So, His strategies strengthen us and His imparted strength propels us to be in a position to receive His strategies.  Look at this awesome whirlwind of His Spirit that we can stay caught up in if we are willing to access the rich treasury.  I’ve gotta run now . . . the strength of His strategies is calling me.

Strategic glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Welcome back!  By now you know we should go beyond a “glow,” into a terrible brilliance.  So, today we explore what terrible and holy glory looks like on us.  My body is separated for your service LORD so I make glorious choices in determining what I eat (1 Corinthians 10:31).  My eyes are consecrated for your service, LORD so I watch what I set before them (Psalm 101:3).  My mind is made up and set apart for your service, LORD so I renew it daily with Your word (Psalm 26).  My heart is for You and Your service and I will connect it to those who have Your eternal life flowing from their heart (Proverbs 4:23).

I could go on and on as these are just some of the things He requires of me in each area of my temple.  How about you . . . what is He requiring of your body, eyes, mind, and heart?  This is what you must identify and get clear about in order to lay hold of the prize called holy glory.  If you aren’t specifically clear, it sounds like you’ve got a homework assignment, mentee.  One resource I know will jumpstart this is to pick up The Making if you haven’t already.  If you have, ask Him to lead you to the exact area that needs clarifying by directing you to the specific page(s) or chapter(s) in the book.  In closing, holy glory is terrible brilliance.

Scriptures to meditate upon that can user you to Holy Glory:  Ecclesiastes 8:12-13, Deuteronomy 7:21, Exodus 14:31, Leviticus 19:14, 32, 25:17, Proverbs 3:7, Psalm 27:1, 66:3,5, Isaiah 60:5

From glory to glory,

How many times do we talk about experiencing, seeing, and living in the glory?  Do you really believe He’ll wrap you the glory like a well-worn garment?  He will so that all nations, tribes, and tongues gather to worship and serve Him.  He longs to reveal Himself that all flesh may know that He is LORD.  The glory is going to cover the earth, and you are a part of it.  The glory has come.  Do you really believe?

Well if you do, you’ll see His glory, not because I say so, but because He says so.  Go here to hear it for yourself.

From faith to faith,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Yesterday, I challenged you to submit to the making process and learn to be still.  This is the rest you so desperately need in order to transition out of flesh-based living into proper spiritual alignment.  So, today I come with a declaration for you and your family.  Here it is:

I declare that the rest of your family, church, and ministry shall be glorious.  Yes, your rest in Jesus shall be glorious.  You will begin to carve out ample time to “be” with Him.  I declare your one hour of prayer will turn into two, then three, then four, and ultimately you’ll pray without ceasing in accordance with His word.  I thank Him that because of your willingness to “be still” He will show you great and marvelous things before you even finish calling on His name.  I speak manifestation of His nature, power, and character on every side and every single front.  I declare . . .

Responding to His glory on me,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

It never ceases to amaze me how those who are being “made” can’t sit still.  Their calendar is full with this that and the other.  Sadly, many of it is ministry related and they haven’t even been made into His image yet!  We must cooperate with the process of His making us into all He intends.  To do this requires we sit still and allow Him to hide us in the cleft of the Rock.  It requires us to come off this board, auxiliary, committee, and perhaps even decrease the number of nights we attend church.  Yes, I said it.  When you are being made, you are likened to a tender shoot and even a mild wind can blow you off the path.  This is why you find yourself hurt so much and offended by this and that.  You haven’t been made yet.  It’s time to be still and know He’s God and allow Him to mentor you.  Are you willing to submit to the process?  If so, then here’s the perfect prayer to pray:

Lord, hide me until the appointed time for it is Your glory to conceal a thing until the right moment (Proverbs 25:2).

Responding to His glory on me,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina

Yeshua is the glory of the Father, and He’s our Glory.  He is the Word too, and he will expose you.  Now before you pullout your soulish barriers, let me reveal what He showed me.  This is between you and Him, not you and me or some other leader.  I’m not getting ready to prophetically expose someone right here on this blog.  Well, maybe I will.  Seriously, back to the unfolding.  Have you ever read the word and every verse in the chapter you were lacking and deficient in possessing the very character and essence of it?  What you just experienced is being exposed by the Glory.  All you can do when this happens is say, “I’m guilty.” and pray, “I’m convicted, Lord . . . bring me the increase in this area(s).  I want to walk in the fruit of this entire chapter.”  When is the last time you were exposed by and surrendered to the Glory, the Word, Himself?

All Scripture is God-breathed and is valuable for teaching the truth, convicting of sin, correcting faults and training in right living; – 2 Timothy 3:16 CJB

“Isn’t my word like fire,” asks ADONAI, “like a hammer shattering rocks? – Jeremiah 23:29 CJB

On Wednesday, June 16, 2010, I made this statement:  “Do you think the world, the flesh, and the devil are going to sit idly by while you ascend into the glory?”  Let’s expound on this today.  As you ascend into glory realms, you will encounter things that try to unearth you and unseat you from your position in Christ.  In order to fight the good fight of faith and continue on the journey into the glory, you must be focused and determined.  Here are two scriptures you can employ to help you:

Psalm 112:7-8 KJV

7  He shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the LORD.

8  His heart is established, he shall not be afraid, until he see his desire upon his enemies.

1 Corinthians 9:24-27 AMP

24 Do you not know that in a race all the runners compete, but [only] one receives the prize? So run [your race] that you may lay hold [of the prize] and make it yours.

27  But [like a boxer] I buffet my body [handle it roughly, discipline it by hardships] and subdue it, for fear that after proclaiming to others the Gospel and things pertaining to it, I myself should become unfit [not stand the test, be unapproved and rejected as a counterfeit].

A definite aim, lay hold of the prize, discipline your flesh, less you be proved a counterfeit after having preached this gospel to everyone . . .. these are the keys of this passage of scripture.  Although it is referring to eternal crowns and rewards, it still applies here.  The glory is eternal and it is our right and privilege to lay hold of it by discipling ourselves for it to be manifested in our lives and ministry.  This is the reward ministers of the gospel should be focused on, not monetary rewards. The glory is priceless, eternal; don’t let anything distract you from it.

Hungry for His glory,

Prophetess Karen M. Pina
