    Facing Our Fears
    by Rick Joyner

    Because the Lord has already spoken to us about the events that are now coming to pass, we have been researching prophetic words previously published by us. I have been amazed, and encouraged by how clearly the Lord has spoken about them, and given us directions on how to be prepared for what is to come. We will be republishing many of these words in future bulletins, and even republishing some of our prophetic books such as The Harvest, and Epic Battles of the Last Days, adding to them the now abundant additional understanding that we have.

    For many of...

    Fighting the Right Fight
    by Rick Joyner

    I confess that I personally have a problem hearing people say that Islam is a peaceful religion. Any religion that has a doctrine which states that if someone leaves that religion they should be killed cannot be considered peaceful. That is terrorism in its most basic, and oppressive, form. However, there is more than one face to Islam, just as there are presently many faces to Christianity. It is wrong for us to judge any person or group by their most extreme elements.

    We should be just as concerned about Christian militia groups as we are radical Islamic groups. Both...

    by Rick Joyner

    As we have addressed previously, the real battle we are fighting is against fear. The evil one wants to control the world through fear. We must therefore decide that we are going to grow in faith and the peace of God, and that we will not allow our actions to be determined by fear.

     We must also keep in mind that "... our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Ephesians 6:12)....

    Fighting the Good Fight
    by Rick Joyner

    The real battle we are fighting is against fear. Evil people want to control the world through fear. As one of our great President of war once said, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." To the degree that fear controls our actions, that is  the degree to which fear has become our lord.

    The devil uses fear to control people in the way the Lord uses faith. That is why terrorism and tyranny always work together. Satan dwells in darkness because the light destroys his power. Truth sets us free from the tyranny and oppression of the devil....

    The Battle Has Begun
    by Rick Joyner

    In previous Special Bulletins I felt that it was important to biblically establish how there are different mandates given to the civil government and the church. This is crucial for us to understand if we are to know our own specific purpose in the times ahead.

    As stated, the civil government is an authority established as "... a minister of God... it does not bear the sword for nothing; for it is a minister of God, an avenger who brings wrath upon the one who practices evil" (Romans 13:4). Because of this mandate the civil government...
