It's amazing how we expect God to move on our behalf with an URGENCY, yet we don't move with an URGENCY when He makes a request, instruction, or command. We use God as a one night stand and we only call Him when we want something! We use the Most High like a spare tire. The Most High is a genie that we want to rub on for a wish. Can the Most High depend on us? It is a blessing to know that the God of all creation and the universe can depend on us. Lord, give me an ear to hear your voice so that I can move with a sense of URGENCY! We must make a conscious decision and effort to discern the times like the Sons of Issachar, who knew the climate of the times. Let us move with a purpose, with intention, with wisdom, and with a sense of URGENCY!

What does it mean to be a kingdom ambassador?
According to Proverbs 13:17, we ought to bring health, refreshment, and comfort with whom we come into contact. We have a calling higher than the average citizen's and therefore are held to a higher standard. God has called us out of this world (John 15;19) and transferred us into his kingdom (Colossians 1:13) However, one must consider, do we have what it takes to be an ambassador of Jesus Christ. Do we know how an ambassador is supposed to conduct themselves, or what they are supposed to do?
According to Dr. Fuller's teaching this morning, there is an "urgent" call that has gone out and the alarm has sounded, which can only be heard by those who are chosen. God is looking to see who will answer the call. Prophet Johnson gave us a thorough analogy concerning how firefighters respond to an alarm. Just like a firefighter, God's ambassadors must stop what they're doing and focus their attention on the announcement which contains pertinent information. Then, one must listen for instructions to see who will go, as all are not qualified to answer certain calls. They may still be rookies who require more training. Next, those assigned receive the full address and location of the fire. An ambassador receives the specific instructions God gives in accordance to the situation at hand. Finally, one must execute those specific instructions within the confines of their training or gifting.
We then discussed various definitions of "urgent": requiring immediate action or attention, high-priority, action done in response to a pressing or critical situation among others. The world is in a state of emergency starting with the church itself, and in need of a spiritual enema to eradicate the mess that has been allowed to take place in God's house. We are to come out from among them (2 Corinthians 6:17)and a clear distinction should be established between the church and the world. Dr. Fuller is the global announcer, chosen by God to sound the alarm for this urgent call for Kingdom Ambassadors Global Institute, and is watching to see who will be obedient and faithful. 2 Peter 1:10 states we are to make our calling and election sure to avoid falling. We must have an assurance of our salvation to be able to be kingdom ambassadors. There is so much substance we can bring out here in a group discussion.
Discussion: Iron sharpeneth iron
What did today's message reveal to you concerning your position at KAGI? What is your assignment as an ambassador? What is your responsibility to God, Dr. Fuller, the ministry, and the people? There is a definite responsibility attached to being a kingdom ambassador and we must handle this call with care and diligence.
This wasn't my what I originally wrote yesterday. It did not post. The Spirit of the Lord spoke to me and revealed, "I'm taking my time with you because of who you are! We often say, "Please be patient with me, God is not through with me yet!" How many of us can say that we are patient with God? God is saying, "Be patient with me; I'm not through with you yet!" For I have begun a good work and I shall finish what I started, said the Lord. If God designed created the recipe, He knows how long it takes for His recipe to be completed! Lord knows I feel that I am ready and I want to get out of the Crock Pot. Sometimes you don't know what you want because you're not ready for what you're asking for! One of my mentors taught me that the way to get out is to go through. The way to get out of the maze is to go through the maze! Be patient, it's coming!
I want to personally thank each and every person who sowed a seed for my Sabbatical which was so greatly needed. I am a person who did not get the majority of anything handed to me. I work hard for everything I have. A couple weeks ago when I had a 911 meeting for the students, I told them about all I had to go through to have my degrees approved by the Department of Education and about our University status. Then I asked everyone to sow into me for my Sabbatical, and you all really did. Some are still sowing to me. The bible says "we have not cause we ask not." I asked and you all showed out. I thank you for every seed, every good prayer, and every text to check on me. I am a person who is always giving and it feels good when people give you things. Thank you so much and may God Bless Each and Everyone.
Sometimes our fears cause us to become stagnate and paralyzed in a place of comfort. The unfamiliar makes us uncomfortable. When we become comfortable, we cannot grow. God is the God of production, reproduction, and elevation. When we remain in the same class, we get socially promoted to the next grade, then fail the next grade because we are not ready for the promotion. God promoting us is an indication that we are ready. Promotion and elevation is in the go, in the active, in forward movement. Water does not flow backwards and neither should we. Faith always us progressive and moving forward. No more social promotion by default; it's elevation on purpose!
