There is a vibration in the air that we can all feel. Spiritually and physically, through land is groaning for its Creator. The deep calls unto deep. And those who know Him and are part of His kingdom know this—something is coming.

If you’ve been feeling this too, and you’ve been wondering why this homesteading movement is so influential and important, now is the time to discover why. And it’s completely FREE.

Join us for this FREE EVENT this Friday at this Homesteaders of America conference on October 11th in Front Royal VA!

Stephen Burke worked for 18 years in advertising and public relations before God called him out of his profession in 2004 to begin a ministry He named, The LORD Will Provide.

The work began in Guatemala and involved church planting and missions. However, in 2008, God unexpectedly gave Stephen a 2-hour open vision of unprecedented future difficulty that is coming to America and the world.

In this vision God also showed Stephen that God Himself is raising up places of refuge to hide, protect, and move His chosen people to the land of Israel from wherever they are in the world. So, since 2009, the Lord has been connecting
Stephen with these places of refuge around the world.

His role has been to encourage them and to let them know they’re not alone. God has a global plan for His people in the midst of trouble and even now is preparing for these days.

JOIN US to hear all about what’s to come, and how God has always has a solution for difficult times ahead. Do you feel like your farm or homestead is a place of refuge? Come learn why!

BAPTISMS & PRAYER AVAILABLE!

Psalm 120:1
“I call on the Lord in my distress,
and he answers me.”

Join us at the Kingdom Vision Center summit in October!! Kingdom authority is so needed in the times we are in and going into. Let’s learn together!!

Are you or your ministry ready to “level up” and operate in the Kingdom authority promised by Jesus?

If so, join us at the 2024 KINGDOM VISION CENTER EMPOWERMENT SUMMIT: SEATED AT THE GATES – OPERATING IN KINGDOM AUTHORITY. It will impart biblical truth regarding the Ekklesia’s delegated authority to prevail over the gates of our enemies, bring greater clarity on natural and spiritual gates, and increase understanding of our role as ambassadors of Christ’s Kingdom to influence transformation in every sphere of culture.

Powerful keynote speakers will inspire and equip you for your Kingdom assignment. We will host an interactive panel discussion with reformational leaders of apostolic equipping centers, and you will have opportunities to connect with like-minded ministries and believers. PLUS, presence focused praise and worship, prophetic ministry, and resource tables.

I have reached a point of holy frustration in more than one instance over the last two years. There is a holy disruption happening in the world but there are many who still want to try and love the devil into heaven. Guess what, it doesn’t work.

I’m tired of compromise in our nation.
I’m tired of compromise in our churches.
I’m tired of inactivity and passiveness.
I’m tired of greed and aggression of the wrong kind.
I’m tired of people not opening their mouths because of “love” or “paycheck” or “influence”.

Can I tell you a secret? The moment you stop caring about what people think of you is the moment you trade the fear of man for the fear of the Lord. You’re going to lose friends. You’re going to be disliked. You’re going to be “that person”. But beware of any man or prophet who is spoken so highly of by EVERYONE.

Luke 6:26 says “Woe to you when everyone speaks well of you, for that is how their ancestors treated the false prophets.”

Each of us is given a gift or set of gifts through Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit. USE IT. Churches—UTILIZE THEM. The reality is that if we don’t want compromise and mixture, we must put in place a mixture of gifts and graces. Guess what—prophets won’t be as lovey-dovey as shepherds. Prophets literally won’t try to love the “hell” out of the devil—instead they’ll be sarcastic with the prophets of Baal and call down fire from heaven. Hello, Elijah?

Apostles are active and moving all the time, they are going to push you and challenge you. And that’s OK! The church needs it.

Teachers will make you drink information like a fire-hose—don’t despise it, encourage it. The average believer needs knowledge and wisdom and it comes through the learning of the word.

And the list goes on and on.

Church—we are at too pivotal of a point to compromise. I promise you, it will reap grave consequences if we continue in the direction we’re going. Stop compromising and settling for “close to” what God said. No, go ALL IN. It literally is ALL or nothing. There is no “maybe this is acceptable”. In politics. In church. In theology. In our personal lives and relationship with God. Beat your plowshares into swords (Joel 3:9-10)

There are two things that we see happening in the world—complete chaos and people in fear, and complete chaos with people who take safety for granted.

The Middle East is once again on the brink of war. The United States and other countries have been deployed.

America is seeing an incredibly chaotic election year. The Olympic fiascos are diverting Americans attention away from the fact that we don’t even have a President.

Venezuela’s communist leader botched the elections and refuses to leave his position even though other countries had proven he is no longer the leader.

The UK and Britain are succumbing to riots and terrorist attacks in the streets. All of this on top of the regular everyday harshness of life.

But when we see these things we must remember what the word says in Luke 21:

25 “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. 26 People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 27 At that time they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”

34 “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life, and that day will close on you suddenly like a trap. 35 For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

To Him Who sits on the throne, and into the Lamb, be blessing and honor and glory and power forever and ever. He is the Victor, and He is mighty to save. He knows what is happening, and He knows what is yet to come. I could not be more thankful that my life is in the hands of the Living God. Amen.

Philippians 3:7-12
7 But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. 8 What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ 9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ—the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. 10 I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death, 11 and so, somehow, attaining to the resurrection from the dead.

12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.

The problem is that most Christian’s believe what this atheist believes. Throughout the Bible there are generations that grew up not knowing the Lord. This wasn’t the world’s fault—this was the fault of believers. S***m and Gomorrah were destroyed not because of the unrighteous, but because He could not find even 1 righteous!!!

The world is going to do what the world always does—mock Jesus. It will always provide a counterfeit. It will always promote grossness and acceptance of evil things. But the church has to stop looking like the world.

To believe that true biblical Christianity will perish is preposterous. It’s not even historically or biblically accurate. In fact, the entire history of Christianity is this—the LORD preserves for Himself a remnant, the world falls into utter chaos, the remnant rises up and expands the kingdom in vastness, and the generations come to know Yahweh once again.

This is the time we are in. Do not subscribe to or believe the narrative if you are a believer, that if you aren’t crazy loud against the world, Christianity will perish. We are called to judge the church, not the world!

In fact John 16:33 says this, “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

We are His kingdom light bearers. We are broken vessels that He has made whole in order to CARRY His light and GLORY to the next generations. Just like the Greek and Roman Olympics that celebrate the “gods” carry a torch—which is a total counterfeit—WE, the body of Christ, are torch bearers for Christ.

A time is coming and is now here where true worshippers will worship in spirit and truth. Stop focusing on the kingdom of darkness and have confidence in what God is doing! And for goodness sake, DO SOMETHING! Be an active member of the body, not just a pew-setter! If you fear that Christianity will disappear if you don’t post in retaliation of drag queens at a WORDLY event, then you don’t believe or know the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at all. Because guess what—HE WINS, and has ALREADY WON. 🙌🔥

Preparedness is wisdom, not fear. They thought Noah was crazy until the flood came. They thought Joseph was crazy until the famine came. Certainly you can prepare out of fear, but that’s not what I’m talking about.

Whenever I’m in a conversation with someone, I can tell if they have fear in them about the future. There’s no reason to have fear if you are prepared physically, mentally, and spiritually. We have to get rid of fear, not just stuff it down.

I can also tell when people are flippant about it, as if nothing will ever happen. And that’s not healthy either. There is a balance. We can find that balance.

Homesteaders and farmers across the world are some of the most non-fearful people that you’ll meet. We don’t depend on anything or anyone. Yet even we will have culture shock that we have to deal with when things really start going haywire. And they will. And so even more than physical preparedness, our mental and spiritual preparedness right now is key.

Whatever concerns you the most as you continue to watch collapses and glitches unfold, consider leaning into that and searching for a solution. Are you concerned about where your food will come from? Grow it yourself or get to truly know a local farmer/homesteader who will supply your needs. If you are concerned for your access to healthcare, now is the time to learn about herbal remedies, gut healing, and connecting with a local naturopath, herbalist, or natural healthcare practitioner. If you’re concerned about your business, now is the time to begin diversifying your income. The lists go on.

Not tomorrow, today. Don’t put off tomorrow what you can do today. That’s the problem with the world—we always think someone is coming to save us. Yet we forget we are constantly called to discern the times and prepare accordingly.

Don’t fear—it’s just another glitch in another day. Instead, turn that fear into motivation. When you are sustainable, fear has no foothold in your life.

What are some ways YOU have or are changing your habits, skills, or level of preparedness?

There is another heat advisory today, but this morning there was the coolest slight breeze on my back as I milked. Autumn is around the corner. In fact, it is already making its way here. The animals know it, the land knows it, nature itself knows it. Why? Because it’s inevitable.

There are things in life that are simply laws of nature. The sun always rises in the morning and sets in the evening. The moon always has the same cycles. Many parts of the world have four seasons. Rain makes grass and crops grow. Bugs break down organic matter into soil. What goes up must come down. And so on.

There are laws of the Kingdom of God too. My oldest son and I were talking about this the other day. It’s the scriptures that say “if…then”. It’s “if you love Me, you’ll keep my commandments and obey My teachings”. It’s “honor your father and mother so that you may live well in the promised land”. It’s “observe the sabbath, come to Me you who are weary and heavy burdened, and I will give you rest.” It is “if you truly love Me, the Father will love you, and I will manifest Myself to you.”

If nature knows the laws of nature, how much more should we know the laws of the kingdom? How much more prepared would we be? How much more in sync with Yahweh would we be? How much more discerning would we be? How much more growth would we see?

And how do we learn these things? Study the word. Don’t just read it. Study it. Find mentors that can teach you. Download the free Logos Bible app and start researching. And pray that the Holy Spirit would guide you in all things.

The seasons are shifting, friends. Not just physically. I feel it more than ever. And for what’s coming, we cannot forsake fellowship. We cannot just read a few verses and call it a day. We cannot just pray before bed and goto sleep. The Lord is calling for watchmen on the wall. He is calling for intimacy with Him in the secret place. There’s a reason it’s called the secret place. Commanders of armies don’t meet at Starbucks.

Wait on the Lord. Meditate on scripture. Wash your family in the word. Speak life to them, and yourself. Because who knows but the Lord whether the winter will be harsh or mild.
