Podcast - The Greg Lancaster Show, Live from the Glory Zone.

Greg and Pat discuss being an ambassador for the greatest King and his kingdom, Jesus Christ. They continue to discuss what an actual ambassador does. It is especially important and beneficial for us to get this understanding as God’s word instructs us to be Ambassadors for Jesus. Just recently Caroline Kennedy, daughter of the late President John F. Kennedy, was just appointed as United States Ambassador in Japan. In her role as a United States Ambassador she moved to Japan and does her best in sharing American culture and building relationships so the President’s plans and agenda are communicated and given the best possible opportunity to succeed in the land. The ideal behind being an ambassador is to always be the highest and most direct representation of your country in a foreign land. For instance when anyone in Japan would see Ambassador Caroline Kennedy it is appropriate to understand that she represents America. Ambassadors don’t just show up on their own but rather are sent. They continue to discuss the duties and functions of an ambassador as the ambassador helps the people in the land they are in to visit the country they represent. How one secures passports and all the proper documentation and most of that information is provided in a building called the embassy. God himself has given us a ministry of reconciliation and has called us as Christians to be his representatives and to help the people we come in contact with the opportunity to enter His Kingdom. It’s not about getting them to visit the embassy “the building” but rather it’s about helping people enter the Lord’s Kingdom. God wants us to tell them how awesome He is and that he loves them and has a plan for their life. It’s not strange for you to walk into a place and everyone to know that you are a Christian. If you are ashamed of Jesus you can’t be his ambassador. We are citizens of the Lord’s Kingdom and people should be able to look to us not just to know what a citizen of heaven looks like but to find assistance and how they can become a citizen of heaven too. God loves you so much he paid the price for your citizenship.

Greg and Pat discuss whether you can do what you want to do with your money. Many people today believe in redistribution of wealth. They believe that they should have some of your money. Than others say Jesus is capitalist. The truth is that God is not political nor does he get involved in the economies of men. The question they asked is can you do what you want to do with your money? They begin to share from Matthew 20 regarding a parable that Jesus shared. In this account Jesus shares about a man who hired several people to work in his vineyard. The man hired each employee at different times of the day. When it was time to pay the employees at the end of the day the employees who were hired first were shocked and upset that they were paid the same as the employee who was hired in the last hour of the work day. They continue to ask the question whether you can do what you want to do with your money. The men were upset although they agreed to work for a certain amount of money. Does the business owner have the right to do what he wants to do with his own money or are just people envious? What is happening today is that there is a huge spirit of envy in the land. They just want to have what others have. The answer is that you can do whatever you want to do with your money but just because you can doesn’t make your choice right. The Bible says in 2 Corinthians 9:7 “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” God doesn’t force us but desires to lead us. They encourage us to trust God to provide for us not your boss. Don’t unionize around the coffee pot or water cooler simply honor God with your tithes and offerings. He will take care of you.

Greg and Pat discuss what happens to people who stand with Israel. They continued to discuss how the Jerusalem Post reports that in the past year the number of Christians enlisting in the IDF, Israeli Defense Force has doubled. They continue to share that the Jerusalem Post reports that allegedly a Hadash activist attacked the son of a Greek Orthodox priest because he supports the enlistment of Christian Arabs in the IDF. He was beat with a stick. This is what has happened historically. This is the epitome of the Muslim Brotherhood’s activities. All this young man and family did was stand up and was attacked.

ENDURANCE: You are Going to Need to GO THROUGH Something TO BE STRONG in God

Greg and Pat discuss the importance of endurance and the need to go through something if you are going to be strong in the Lord. They continue to share that when a Prince is born under a King there is not much need for endurance. The same is true in America because of the amazing blessings this land possesses. However, the Bible tells us in Hebrews 10 that we should not be those who shrink back but instead be those who endure. It takes God’s grace upon your life for you to endure. What’s going on in your life is going to either make you stronger or drive you deeper in the cave of denial. They continue to discuss how you want to be able to endure but without abiding with God it is impossible to endure. They continue to share the prayer of endurance they have been praying for several years. The book of James reminds us to consider it pure joy when we face trials of many kinds. However, we must be willing to face the trial. If you are still stressing out you don’t know yet that God is in control. You need to go out deeper and farther in God. You are going to have to press through and endure. Going through it will make you stronger. It’s a lot like building muscle. Muscle is developed by breaking it down and then it comes back stronger. They encourage us to build ourselves up in God. Don’t assume you are a disciple, check yourself. They encourage us to learn the language of the Spirit. We don’t want to be ones who shrink back, remember the four blood moons start with much struggle. Abiding with Jesus is how you build endurance.

Is the Secretary of State throwing Israel Under the Bus by Urging Lawmakers to Stop New Sanctions on Iran?

Greg and Pat discuss whether Secretary of State John Kerry, is throwing Israel under the bus as he encourages lawmakers to refrain from imposing new sanctions on Iran. CBN News reports that, “In an agreement reached last month, Iran agreed to stop enriching Uranium over the next six months; but, it was in exchange for the U.S. not to impose new sanctions during that period.” They continue to discuss that it’s not wrong to do what your told however it does matter who is the one telling you what to do? They continue to reiterate the importance of praying for our leaders. We have leaders who have different viewpoints of America. They were seeking a transformational presidency that would bring fundamental change. There is large number of people that are behind this. Secretary John Kerry is saying, do no put new sanctions on Iran almost as if he is buying time, 6 months specifically ends up right around the four blood moons. We are seeing a battle for Jerusalem unfold; they are using Alinsky tactics and Secretary of State Kerry is okay leading it all the while Israel becomes a sitting duck. Is Israel being thrown under the bus.? It’s time for the church to rise up and not get caught up in the horizontal and understand the need to stand for God and Israel. They encourage us to focus on knowing the Lord and he will take care of us.

Is Iran Becoming The New Superpower? Move Over America; Is Iran the New Super Power on the Block?

Greg and Pat discuss whether Iran is becoming the new super power. CBN reports that “President Barack Obama's foreign policy is coming under fire after signing the Geneva Accords with Iran last month. A number of America's traditional allies are asking if the United States is losing its influence in the Middle East. Many experts see a stronger Iran, a weaker America and a region tottering on the brink.” They continue to discuss how Iran is being perceived in the Middle East as a new superpower and the United States is weakening. We are seeing prophecy being fulfilled. Iran has an apocalyptic government and they are being allowed to develop nuclear bombs; there will be a nuclear arms race in the Middle East. We have already seen how the Arab League turned over to Russia. We must stand up for Israel. We are entering times that test men souls, look up for your redemption draws nigh. Those in the Middle East are actually saying that America will soon be gone. This is happening all the while the United States forced Prime Minister Netanyahu to seek help from Russia no less. This is your time to stand. In the past year the number of Christians that have enlisted in the Israeli Defense Force to help Israel has doubled. At the same time the Secretary of State John Kerry, is urging lawmakers to stop sanctions against Iran. This will not end well.

As Greg and Pat discuss how Nelson Mandela was reached for the Kingdom of God. They continue to discuss how an evangelist from South Africa says he believes the Gospel profoundly affected Nelson Mandela’s outlook as he re-entered politics after his years in prison according to CBN News. It is believed Mandela was greatly influenced by the Gospel of Jesus Christ while he was in prison. CBN reports “Evangelist Michael Cassidy said Billy Graham asked him to visit Mandela in 1992 in response to a letter Mandela had written to Graham after he left prison. "I personally like to believe that the Christian Gospel also informed his responses. It wasn't just pragmatic politics. These were principles in his heart, soul and mind that he had come to believe were right," he continued.”

PROPHESY - It's Going to be a Physical Battle, Not Just Spiritual

As Greg and Pat discuss how it’s going to be a physical battle too not just a spiritual battle so be prepared. They continue to discuss how VFNRadio and VFNtv is a NOW WORD! They discuss a prophetic word given to Greg regarding what is to come. When God speaks we must evaluate our response to what He is saying. He will continue to speak almost like the rhythmic pattern of labor pains when birthing a child. As time for delivery approaches the pains become sharper and more frequently less we repent. God wants us to turn back to Him. When one goes before the judge he understands the judge will put things back in order. Greg shares how he was shown a military air training where Americans and Saudi’s were trained. In this prophetic experience he was attending a diverse unity gathering. Suddenly a military base on the gulf coast came under attack. He continued to look south toward the Naval Air Station in Pensacola when he saw a huge explosion and right after there was another explosion. He got into his truck at first to respond but then turned to warn everyone that this is not just going to be spiritual but it’s going to be physical. He continues to share how people don’t like us. We need to prepare and not with “cheerios” but to prepare for people who intentionally want to harm you. Our Naval power will be under attack as they share how Brett saw the military chased by red air craft. At this time Christians were under attack all the while people were looking in the air. They continue to discuss the dream Brett had when he saw two air plane pilots from the United Emirates. Planes were being shot down and Brett warned the people. He even saw where they had to put bayonets on indicating a battle on the land. God told Brett to get this out to Greg and Pat so they can get the word out over the air. Some will be tempted to discredit this reality from happening but a wise person prepares. They further discuss a dream Greg had where it was revealed to him that a war is very specific and that logistics take a while however God showed him that terrorist attacks take 60 years to accomplish. So what does God mean? It will be 60 years in 2014 which just happens to be the year of the first of the four blood moons that NASA is predicting. God told Greg to look back at what happened in America 60 years ago which is 1954.

In 1954 the nation tuned into the McCarthy hearings and they were successful at polarizing him as the public face but he was trying to warn the people how communism had infiltrated our government. He warned about how communist subversion was coming to our country. They broadcasted the hearing for 35 days but no one was listening to him. It is very similar to what Congresswoman Michelle Bachman and Senator Ted Cruz has been warning us regarding the infiltration and penetration of the Muslim Brotherhood in our nation even in the White House. It looks like McCarthy was right. They continue to remind us of what Brother Kilpatrick said when he said stand with God. Don’t be scarred. The question is what does a physical battle look like? They further discuss three of four dreams given to an 11 year old boy. The first dream involved the North Korean dictator and Christian persecuted Kim Jong- il coming to the White House and in the dream the young boy understood that he killed everybody. In the same dream the 11 year old boy was taken to a safe room where President Obama was and the President begged the 11 year old boy to help him escape through the window and he did. He also saw in another dream where everything was destroyed, massive deaths, and many who were dead. In another dream he saw where the city went from high tech to nothing. He saw people setting up all kinds of stands to barter and he even saw people stealing everything including gasoline as well as people themselves were being mugged. They continue to discuss what is was like to go through five hurricanes in one year. We can’t rely on FEMA to come in and do everything. Even the police officers have families too. Imagine this happening to a nation where most people are not prepared. Many today are living pay check to pay check and will be surprised as to how quickly super market shelves will go empty. They encourage us to prepare in context for crazy things to happen and to protect your home, family, and the elderly. They discuss there is going to be physical calamities and law enforcement will be overwhelmed and will need you to help. They continue to share how this is all part of a strategy to overwhelm the system causing it to have to reboot but when it does it will not be good. They remind us that if we turn to God we will win. There are more for us than there are against us.

"And that means the enemy is inside the wire" reports CBN News. They continue to discuss how one senior advisor on the Department of Homeland Security who was promoted posted a picture of himself showing four fingers which is a symbol for the Muslim Brotherhood.
