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

LISTEN NOW! Greg, Pat, and John discuss Iran’s new President Hasan Rowhani, however nothing has changed. Iran is still accelerating their uranium weapons program according to recent statements made by Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. According to CBN Prime Minister Netanyahu said in the two months since Rowhani was elected, Iran has installed 7,000 new centrifuges. "The centrifuges will keep spinning. This isn't a secret," he explained. He added that Iran's new president boasts that is his strategy. It is being reported Iran’s new president says: I talk and I smile, and I enrich uranium.” The uranium is being enriched to produce nuclear bombs. Iran is bent on the destruction of Israel. They continue to discuss about Israel’s efforts of communicating this real and present threat as loud and often as they can. We must stand with God and with Israel as faithful watchmen on the wall.

Greg, John, and Pat discuss how important it is to do business the right way. It’s important for businesses to do what they say they will do especially when they receive payment. They discuss some unjust situations in which some insurance companies in Florida were accepting payment for home insurance and after years of collecting the premiums they decided to leave the state. It’s not right to accept payment and then find ways not to pay claims when it’s time to pay for the protection that is paid for. The Lord sees everything and nothing escapes his eyes. Business should not be conducted with unjust scales what is promised needs to be delivered.

LISTEN NOW! Greg, John and Pat discuss how medical doctors are leaving their practices in fact it is being reported that about 83% of doctors surveyed are quitting in response to the Affordable Health Care law that is being promoted by President Obama. They continue to discuss how there is not enough doctors now to serve everyone therefore how will everyone’s medical needs be taken care of if 83% of the doctors leave the medical profession. They share an account of someone they know who was just informed that their doctor was leaving his profession and how this was going to affect the person especially since his wife is terminally ill. Healthcare for everyone sounds good but at the same time we can’t force our neighbors to buy our medical bills. They continued to discuss the cost of medicine today and how that affects everyone who is dependent on medicine. If the government takes over health care that is very large portion of the tax budget which appears to be headed toward the road of socialism. Having a concept is one thing but reality and implementation is another thing, real life. They continue to discuss how the medical issues are on God’s heart. The question is do we run to government or do we run to God? Christian Missionaries for years have been providing medical care to people all over the world; we can begin to do that here as well. This can be resolved with prayer for what is impossible with man is possible with God. It’s not over until God says it’s over.

John, Greg, and Pat discuss how Uncle Si from Duck Dynasty fame is an author. His new book is called Si-Cology 1: Tales and Wisdom from Duck Dynasty’s Favorite Uncle. They continue to discuss how Si is a unique figure with some interesting ideas and theories on life. The “Duck Dynasty Reality” TV show has been a huge success and the Robertson family gives God all the glory. They are funny too and Si is one of the funniest members of the entire family.

LISTEN NOW! Greg, Pat, and John discuss how you need to know where you are. They discuss how you can either scream at the darkness or you can choose as a believer to shine your light. Often times when great darkness surrounds someone they are tempted to think that they need to increase what they are doing or do something else. Corrie Ten Boone was asked once “What did you do during hard times?” Her response was she just continued be who she was. That is great encouragement for Christians today. Just be who you are as a follower of Christ. As darkness increases the more others will be attracted toward the light in you. All you need to do is stay consistent and steady in God. You need to know where you are. The only way you can know where you are is to spend time reading God’s Word and allowing His word to light your path.

John, Greg and Pat discuss how a street pastor in St. Louis had his Bible and amplifier confiscated although he was not breaking any city ordinances and has a constitutional right to preach in public. They continue to discuss how important it is not only to have the constitutional rights that we have and in this case rights like the freedom of speech and freedom from illegal searches and seizures, the first and fourth amendment. They encourage us to get a pocket constitution and educate ourselves on what are our rights and to stand for truth. Their dialogue continues as they speak about Cuba and other countries that are oppressive where citizens of those nations don’t have the rights that we have in the United States.

Greg, John and Pat discuss how God is the God who has walked in your shoes. The God who truly empathizes with us and truly understands what we go through in life as His creation. Jesus came to earth and one of his functions was that of the High Priest. He did not come in the order of Aaron but rather in the order of Melchizedek. He did not offer blood like High Priest of old that would only cover sin but instead offered his own precious blood that would completely destroy and erase sin in our lives. Jesus is your High Priest who explains you to God. He was all God and all man. He walked on earth 33 years laying down his Godhead to walk as a man to identify and empathize with you. In fact the Bible says that Jesus was tempted in every way yet was without sin. Jesus loved us so much that He laid down his life for us. Hebrews 4:15-16 tells us “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” They encourage us to walk like Jesus walked and take time and make the effort to empathize with others. Truly getting outside of yourself to understand and feel the pain of others.

Greg, John and Pat encourage us not to panic as God is about to do something utterly amazing in the earth today. They discuss many of the moves of God that have taken place throughout history. God has touched the world with powerful moves of His Spirit in the this country through the first and second Great Awakening, through the 1906 Azusa Street Revival, the Asbury Revival, the Argentinian Revival and the Brownsville Outpouring. What people find out is that they can’t do it on their own and they begin to cry out to God. This was true in recent history when Haiti was rocked by an earthquake and many people were screaming in the streets calling out for Jesus. They continued to share about the revival that took place in North Korea in 1907 where leaders got together and began repenting of their own sins to each other and the spirit of God broke out. God’s Spirit broke out in such a powerful way that that the revival lasted for 40 years and the capital of North Korea was dubbed the Jerusalem of the east. God is doing something across our land. When we you see what is happening on a daily basis where everything just about looks upside down you know we are getting closer. One example of this is the former Major in the military Nidal Hassan who was charged with killing 13 people and the attempted murder of 32 more in the 2009 shooting rampage on Fort Hood. The government is trying to classify this obvious act of terror as workplace violence while Nidal Hassan has already stated that he murdered the people as an act of Jihad and would like to be sentenced to death. Don’t panic God is about to do something. He is involved in the affairs of men. The page is turning and we are entering a new season where God is establishing spiritual outpost and hubs across the land to do spiritual battle and combat what will be unfolding. God has a plan and according to Chuck Pierce’s word the governmental leaders are in the place they are because the church is not where she needs to be. Hold on, God is about to do something that will utterly amaze you.

John, Greg and Pat discuss the persecuted church in China and how they hold dear the holy principle according to honored church leader Samuel Lamb, more persecution more growth. In a recent report shared by Charisma News the church in China that was gathered in homes thought they were being robbed when plain clothes police officers raided their gathering because it was an illegal Christian gathering. According to Charisma News “Christians in China are required by law to attend government-sanctioned religious services, while those under the age of 18 are prohibited from attending religious services of any kind.” The leaders were arrested and even fined. Nearly at the same time and arrest of these Chinese leaders an honored hero of the persecuted church in China, Samuel Lamb, died at the age of 88. Samuel Lamb’s ministry affected millions of believers both inside and outside of China. Lamb is remembered according to CBN for preaching the unadulterated Gospel, teachings on the suffering of Job, and what he called the Holy Principle “more persecution, more growth.” They continue to discuss how blessed we are to live in America and for the wisdom of the Constitution that gives Christian believers the rights to gather and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ the very thing that has caused our brothers and sisters , in China and other parts of the world, much suffering. They encourage us to preach the gospel without reservation in the blessed land that we live in as well as encouraging us to pray and stand with the persecuted Church. It was America who first sent missionaries to China but now America needs China to send missionaries to America.

Greg and Pat discuss how many times people are tempted to think that they are in complete control of their destiny but often missed that it is God who is in complete control. In Acts 17:26 the Bible tells us that, “From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live…”. God is in complete control. You can relax and know that God in the one who is in control we are just living in His world. They discuss how a parent who provides a home for their children and have made preparations for them to have a place to live and be taken care have already predetermine how things are going to be. How foolish it is for a child to worry about where the blinds go and what color carpet they are going to get for their room. God is doing so many things for us that are so beyond our ability to comprehend. We finally get the ahha! moment when we realize that we had nothing to do with our arrival, our unique characteristics, and to the parents we were going to be born to. We are just part of one big story God is writing. Many times people are tempted struggle to find out what they should do because they are trying to write their own story. They encourage us to “chillax’ and trust God in what He is doing in our lives and trust Him in every way.
