The Covenant Voice of God
The Rogue Prophet Magazine
Draft 7/7/24

It’s likely that many churchgoers have never experienced what it’s like to walk with the Spirit of God. As a result, they cannot fathom the overwhelming presence of God or His supernatural anointing. They miss out on fellowship with the Almighty. Some are not even sure that He is real.

As one who grew up in the church, I was instructed to study a Bible, not to walk with God. It was if God were dead and all we had left of Him was a book of instructions. But then … I heard the voice of the Almighty speak to me in prayer. Everything changed! When we commit to covenant relationship with God, we are promising on oath to obey Him wholeheartedly. How can we obey Him without hearing His voice? We are often taught by pastors to interpret the Bible and follow rules agreed upon by the church. How does that process create intimacy with God? God is not a book, and He’s not dead. God is Spirit. I’m so disappointed with the church leaders whom I trusted to teach me to know God. They never once told me that I should expect to hear God’s voice. They wasted every opportunity to teach me true obedience to God. I promise you that I won’t waste my voice of truth. I will teach believers to know God.

In this edition of The Rogue Prophet Magazine, we will study what it means to have faith, grasp spiritual discernment, revisit the Biblical stories of those who heard God speak, discuss the profession of faith versus the covenant oath of allegiance, and walk through steps to discerning the voice of God. There is so much that I want to cover in these pages. But I realize that it’s difficult to navigate the unknown and to set time aside to earnestly pursue hearing the voice of God. I have tried to condense this study as much as possible while still bringing the most important topics forward. My hope is that if I can help you get to a place where you are hearing God’s voice, then you and God can take it from there. I’m counting on you to give this your best effort! God is too!

The covenant relationship is integral to hearing the voice of God. If you are not in unbroken covenant with Him, you cannot expect productive prayer conversations between you and Him. Initiating or restoring a broken covenant are prerequisite to being positioned to hear God speak direction for your decisions. If He’s not your only God, then He won’t take second place or share His throne.

You will need to decide how much you are willing to sacrifice to make God priority. Wholeheartedly actually means wholeheartedly. One day, the Lord is going to call you to step into the destiny path that He has uniquely ordained for you. Will you willingly lay down all the encumbrances and follow Him? Can He trust you to be faithful with the anointing? If not, why should He bother speaking to you?

“but I gave them this command: Obey me, and I will be your God and you will be my people. Walk in obedience to all I command you, that it may go well with you.” (Jeremiah 7:23 NIV)

Christianity is Monotheistic

Posted on by

If you are attending a church that teaches that there are three gods (aka trinity) that church is not a Christian church.

Christianity is monotheistic, meaning one God. To be clear, there is only one God. God is His title, much like “mom” and “dad” are titles. God’s name is Jesus. Just like your mom and dad have names, you don’t call them by their names, you call them by their most excellent title. However, if you’re introducing your parents to someone, you would use their names. When I’m talking to God or about Him, I refer to Him as God, but when I need to be specific for others, I use His name “Jesus”.

God is Spirit. When God, as Spirit, wanted to make His presence known on earth, He created a flesh and blood frame delivered through the human reproduction process. God provided the daddy seed implanted in a human woman named Mary. Mary gave birth to the flesh and blood frame. She did not give birth to the Spirit of God who created her. The invisible Spirit of God put on visible flesh and walked out ministry on this planet.

The title “Son of God” refers solely to the flesh and blood frame that was created by God. Jesus is God. He is God’s Spirit. He is the one and only Spirit of God. The flesh and blood frame was temporary but the Spirit of Jesus is eternal. He is the first and the last. Jesus is the one and only God. There are not three gods in Christianity.

If you want further explanation about this, please reach out to me. The “three gods” doctrine is the major false doctrine in the churches today. You should only have covenant relationship with one God, not three. If you are not in covenant relationship with God, you should not expect to hear His voice in prayer. I truly want to help you know how to hear God so that you can have fellowship with the Creator. It’s my mission in life!

Flesh vs. Spirit

“For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.”
(Galatians 5:17 NIV)

On the following page we will study the subject of spiritual warfare, but before that, let’s look at how the spirit and flesh are two separate bodies. The physical body is visible while the spiritual body is unseen. The physical body is temporary, and the spiritual body is eternal. The spiritual body is created in God’s image. God is Spirit. (God made Himself visible in temporary flesh over 2,000 years ago to be the final priest and final atonement sacrifice so that we can have direct access to God for covenant restoration conversation.)

Parents don’t need to teach the physical body how to grow. They can guide nutritional eating and healthy lifestyle habits, but they are not involved in choosing the physical attributes of their offspring. Parents can however aid in the spiritual growth of their children. They can encourage spiritual connection to God and be an example by listening to God in prayer, studying the Bible, and living in obedience to the will of God. They can display the fruit of the Spirit that is evident when walking with the Spirit of God and under His anointing.  But, if instead, a child is raised to prefer worldly ideas to God’s will, they will not mature spiritually and will likely abandon any connection to God.

“Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God.” (Romans 8:5-8 NIV)

Invisible Spirit (God’s Image)

•“God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” (John 4:24 NIV)

•“Then God said, ‘Let us make mankind in our image…’” (Genesis 1:26 NIV)

•“and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to the God who gave it.” (Ecclesiastes 12:7 NIV)

•“So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” (2 Corinthians 4:18 NIV)

•“So will it be with the resurrection of the dead. The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power; it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual body.” (1 Corinthians 15:42-44 NIV)

Breath of Life Scriptures: (from adjacent page)
Genesis 1:30, 2:7, 6:17, 7:15, 7:22; Job 12:10, Job 27:3, 33:4, Isaiah 42:5; John 20:22

“You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you.  And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ.” (Romans 8:9 NIV)

The Gender Reveal:
God knits together the physical body in the mother’s womb using the parents’ DNA. The decision of male or female gender is exclusively God’s to make as He creates the child in the mother’s womb. God sovereignly chooses the key identity characteristics of each person. It’s not by chance. It’s by design.

“Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.” (Psalm 139:16 NIV)

With sonogram and blood testing technologies available, expectant parents can know the sex of their unborn child even before the baby is fully formed. However, the gender of the child is never a surprise to God. God chooses the physical and spiritual body of every individual. He doesn’t make mistakes nor is He ever unsure of His plans.

“For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth.” (Psalm 139:13-15 NIV)

Flesh Versus … :
“See now that I myself am he! There is no god besides me. I put to death and I bring to life, I have wounded and I will heal, and no one can deliver out of my hand.” (Deuteronomy 32:39 NIV)

God is sovereign over life and death, both physical and spiritual. Let’s look at the physical body first where male and female characteristics are most obvious. The physical body is created by God in our parents’ likeness while the spiritual body is created in God’s image. God is Spirit. The spiritual being will either go to Heaven or Hell (as determined by God) when the physical body dies.

God breathes the “breath of life” or the spiritual being (created in God’s image) at birth. The spiritual being is separate from the physical being and is not part of the reproduction process. The physical body dies but the spiritual body is eternal.

•“The Spirit of God has made me; the breath of the Almighty gives me life.” (Job 33:4 NIV)

•“This is what God the LORD says—the Creator of the heavens, who stretches them out, who spreads out the earth with all that springs from it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it:” (Isaiah 42:5 NIV)

•“But after the three and a half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them.” (Rev. 11:11 NIV)

•“And with that he breathed on them and said, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit’”. (John 20:22 NIV)

“Then the LORD God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living being.” (Genesis 2:7 NIV)

Why Catholics Are Not Christian

Posted on by

*Christians would never bow down to Mary or dead saints. We are expressly told to bow to only God. (Please don’t try to tell me that Catholics aren’t actually bowing to Mary when they pray to her. They are actually talking with the dead when they ask her or other dead saints to intercede.)

*Christians confess their sins to God and receive forgiveness from Him. Catholics get absolution from priests. Completely the opposite of going to God directly as afforded by the cross.

*Christians do not call pastors “Father”. Catholics call their priests “Father”. I can only imagine how that offends God.

*Christians do not participate in Ash Wednesday rituals. There is no mention in the Bible about that cultish practice.

*Christians do not believe that the communion emblems actually become the body and blood of Christ. All of the bread/cracker or juice/wine elements are bought (can you say “Walmart”?) not handed down from Heaven. Yet, the Catholic church and the denominations founded from it, believe that a priest must bless the emblems and personally feed it to the congregants. Christians believe that the emblems are symbolic and take Communion as memorial pieces to the price paid to give us direct access to God.

*Even the Christian Bible is different from the Catholic Bible.

*The Catholic cross still has Christ hanging on it while the Christian cross depicts Christ’s resurrection with an empty cross.

Let’s add to this. What other differences are there between Christianity and Catholicism?

Identity Proud!

Posted on by

I proudly identify as an American. I’m not ashamed of my country’s heritage. This nation was formed for God’s purpose of freedom from religious persecution. The pilgrims were a small group of Christians who settled on largely uninhabited land. Rewritten history is being sold to our children and causing them to be ashamed of their homeland.

There are over 2 billion acres of land in the United States of America and over 6 billion acres on the North American continent. When the pilgrims first settled here there were about 60,000 indigenous people. There were only about 100 pilgrims in the first settlers. I can do the math, if you can’t. So please stop believing that our Christian ancestors came over here and stole from the Indians. There is absolutely no reason that on 2 billion acres of land that they could not have peacefully coexisted. There are bad apples in every tribe and people group. The devil and spiritual forces of evil are real. Spiritual war is real. We cannot discount that many of the settlers and indigenous people were friendly and worked together to form a more perfect nation.

God chose for me to be an American. I choose to honor Him by having pride in His choice. He chose for me to be born a female. I honor His choice. He chose for me to be “white”. I honor His choice. He chose for me to be this age. I honor His choice. He chose who my parents and siblings would be. I honor His choice. He chose the number of children that would be born to me. I honor His choice.

God chose for Christian pilgrims to arrive in America. Will you honor His choice? God chose for this nation to be a place free from religious persecution. Will you honor His choice? God chose to accept leadership in forming the Constitution of the United States of America. Will you honor His choice?

I’m not god, nor are you … honor God’s choices! In God We Trust!

Is Jezebel After Trump’s Property?

Posted on by

“In those letters she wrote: ‘Proclaim a day of fasting and seat Naboth in a prominent place among the people. But seat two scoundrels opposite him and have them bring charges that he has cursed both God and the king. Then take him out and stone him to death.’ So the elders and nobles who lived in Naboth’s city did as Jezebel directed in the letters she had written to them. They proclaimed a fast and seated Naboth in a prominent place among the people. Then two scoundrels came and sat opposite him and brought charges against Naboth before the people, saying, ‘Naboth has cursed both God and the king.’ So they took him outside the city and stoned him to death. Then they sent word to Jezebel: ‘Naboth has been stoned to death.’ As soon as Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned to death, she said to Ahab, ‘Get up and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite that he refused to sell you. He is no longer alive, but dead.’ When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he got up and went down to take possession of Naboth’s vineyard.” (1 Kings 21:9-16 NIV)

Evil is successful when we remain silent. We need to rise up against injustice and recognize the schemes being played out right under our noses. If you belong to God, you could ask Him!

Church Leadership Thoughts

Posted on by

There have been many changes in church leadership in the last year or two locally. It seems bratty of me to think that it’s a good thing. It’s certainly not that I want ministers to lose their livelihoods. Those who have a good understanding of true doctrine are very much needed. 

Too often, though, I have seen false teachers spewing their garbage theologies from pulpits and being accepted by congregations full of people who don’t walk with the Spirit. The church is in a mess! It’s a travesty, that most don’t even understand that there is only one God. God is His title. Jesus is His name. Unfortunately, pastors today refer to Jesus as the Son of God rather than as the one and only God. 

I’ve done my part at God’s direction to educate the local ministers on true doctrine. The Mark of Excellence Newsletters were mailed to 24 local senior ministers every month for one year. I listened to God, studied the issues, prepared the newsletters, paid for printing, addressed the envelopes and paid for postage. Listen, I’m invested. I am one that God repeatedly awakened morning after morning at 3:00 or 4:00 am to receive His messages. If God were angry with a specific pastor, He would engage me in His heart towards their false teaching. Believe me, on my own, I would rather that God would speak to them directly and leave me out of His feelings of displeasure towards them. But He is God and I’m not. 

Then God started having me create The Rogue Prophets Magazines to expand on certain topics. Every two months for two years, I worked on creating full magazines and posting them digitally on social media platforms. Some of the magazines were printed so that I could hand deliver them to the ministers that God identified. 

Most likely, every pastor involved would rather not receive a teaching or rebuke from me. It hasn’t been comfortable for me either. But I don’t have a choice. I don’t get to decide that my ministry is done. I don’t get to just walk out of the pulpit and take on another life. Obviously, I feel that it would be good for those who cannot learn true doctrine to walk away from ministry. It’s what needs to happen. Still there is some compassion that creeps in that I would rather push away. They didn’t want to hear the message from God. They didn’t want to seek Him to learn from Him. They didn’t want to make their congregations uncomfortable by changing doctrines. I can’t regret when the wrong ones walk away. 

This year, I see God doing something slightly different with me. The messages that I will deliver are somewhat political. The first Mark of Excellence Newsletter that I created this year was on “Chains of Injustice”. The next one, already in the works, is “Carbon Tyranny”. God wants to dispute the propaganda media on subjects that are being shoved on us by those who oppose God. My true hope is that the Church globally will learn to seek God and hear His voice. Until that happens though, He will likely continue to send messengers to bring a word from Him.

Is the word “trump” in the Bible?

“In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:”

Are You Spiritually Deaf, or is God Mute?

Posted on by

It amazes me the number of Christians that I’ve talked to who don’t expect God to communicate with comprehendible words. They expect Him to communicate either through texts in the Bible, signs, promptings, or through another person. What is that all about? God knew how to speak words that were understood by the patriarchs and prophets. When did He forget how to speak to us?

A Christian should hear God speak to them in prayer every time that they pray. We should hear His voice each day, not once a week, month or year, but daily and throughout the day.

If you’re not hearing God routinely, something needs to be fixed in your relationship with Him. Are you seeking Him? Are you in covenant with Him as your one and only God? Does He trust your character and integrity?

I’m willing to teach you how to hear God’s voice in prayer, how to create a covenant relationship or restore a broken covenant oath. We must build God’s army if we are going to defeat the lies of the enemy. Please decide are you going to hear God or are you going to ignore Him. Of course, He already knows.
