Continuation from the previous issue…
KINGDOM OF JESUS
Mt. 5: 1-12 When he saw the crowds, he went up the mountain, and after he had sat down, his disciples came to him. He began to teach them, saying: Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you [falsely] because of me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
Jesus contrasted his way to the way of the world quite emphatically: “He who is not with me is against me” (Luke 11:23).
Mat 11:28-30 Come to Me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke on you and learn of Me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you shall find rest to your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden is light.
DYNAMICS OF THE PULL TOWARD GOD AND AWAY FROM SELF
By contrast the pull toward God and away from self is presented by Christ in his twofold message of deeds and words and, in responding to God’s desire for us. Here the dynamics of Christ’s platform are the opposite of those that of the enemy.
FIRST STAGE: not to seek to have more. Christ is proposing a detachment from possessing, lest we be possessed, and he tells us: blessed are the poor in spirit [Mt. 5: 3].
Desire to possess can curtail freedom in choosing, since we may make choices only because they allow us to have more or we may avoid making choices because they might cost us losing what we already have or could acquire.
Material self-sufficiency can obscure for us our need for God, our dependence on God’s love and goodness. Not those riches be in themselves evil. The Patriarchs of Bible were certainly presented as blessed with riches, but they knew themselves in need of God.
Jesus tells us repeatedly:
Do not store up treasures for yourselves [Mt. 6: 14].
Seek the kingdom of God first [Mt. 6: 33].
SECOND STAGE: Not to seek being considered more worthy of honor.
Discipleship is not about recognition and power, as Jesus told John and James after their request for a top place of honor in the kingdom [Mt. 10: 42-45].
He also told his disciples:
I, who am Lord and Master... do the same, wash one another’s feet [Jn. 13: 14]
...the servant is not greater than the Master ...they will persecute you [Jn. 15: 20] ...
what will anyone gain in winning the world and forfeiting one’s life? [Mt. 16: 24-26].
THIRD STAGE:
Foster a humble self-understanding as one who is at God’s service.
Already in the book of Proverbs [30: 8] we are given this prayer-request to God: give me neither poverty nor riches ...lest, being full, I deny you saying ‘Who is God?’.
In the gospel of Matthew [26: 38-42] Jesus prays at Gethsemane:
Not as I want, but as you, Father want and in the gospel of John this attitude of being at his Father’s service is expressed repeatedly: my food is to do the will of the One who sent me [4: 34] ...
I came not to do my will, but the will of the One who sent me [6: 38].
So, the dynamics of the pull toward God and away from self can be recognized as
Not seeking to have more,
Not seeking to be considered more worthy of honor and
A humble self-understanding as being at the service of God.
A pertinent prayer at this point is to ask for light to recognize the reality of these two opposite pulls in our lives and to recognize the two opposite platforms and strategies.
God has a Kingdom, a house, and a throne that is settled in Heaven. He instituted trading & trading floors as one of the tools to bring the increase of His Kingdom to earth so that His Kingdom may be established on earth as it is in Heaven.
Satan wants to take his kingdom from earth to Heaven.
Both kingdoms are looking to expand.
Both kingdoms need man in order to increase. Both houses need souls in order to be built.
The battle lines have been drawn. Whom will I serve?
To which trading floor will I bring my worship? Which Kingdom will overcome?
You are one of those who swings the balance of power into the Kingdom of God

TESTIMONY
I am OTP Batch 1 soldier. God's greatest gift to me is OTP. I worked as shadow teacher in ARTISAM SCHOOL in Chennai. I was placed in this work through OTP. First, I started a team meeting among the children and parents. God did great miracles among them. Children who could not speak started speaking by the grace of God. Parents testified that children who do not go outside started to go. Generally, whenever they go to public places the children will scream and cry a lot. But after the team meeting, they go outside very quietly. May God be glorified. I joined the work on 1st April. On the same day, a 3-year-old boy named Darwin arrived at school. He was the only child who cried for a whole month. After that I laid hands on him and started praying. Gradually he became NORMAL. After completing five months, God helped him to go to PLAY SCHOOL in the 6th month. God blesses every OTP student immensely. He blessed and guided me in the same way. Praise be to God.

PROPHECY NEWS
ANTI-IMMIGRATION PROTESTS RAGE IN UK, "YOU WILL REGRET," WARNS PM STARMER
Unrest related to misinformation about the mass stabbing last Monday in the northwestern English seaside town of Southport has hit multiple towns and cities.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer warned far-right protesters on Sunday they would "regret" participating in England's worst rioting in 13 years, as disturbances linked to the murder of three children earlier this week flared across the country.
Masked anti-immigration demonstrators smashed several windows at a hotel that has been used to house asylum seekers in Rotherham, South Yorkshire.
Unrest related to misinformation about the mass stabbing last Monday in the northwestern English seaside town of Southport has hit multiple towns and cities, with anti-immigration demonstrators clashing with police.
The violence is a major challenge for Starmer, elected only a month ago after leading Labour to a landslide win over the Conservatives.
"I guarantee you will regret taking part in this disorder. Whether directly or those whipping up this action online, and then running away themselves," Starmer said in a TV address.
There was "no justification" for what he called "far-right thuggery", he added, promising to bring the perpetrators "to justice".
Shops looted, burnt
Footage aired on the BBC showed rioters forcing their way into a Holiday Inn Express in Rotherham. They also pushed a burning bin into the building. It was not clear whether asylum seekers were inside.
Ten officers were injured there, but local police said none of the hotel staff or its clients had been hurt.
In the northeastern English city of Middlesbrough, hundreds of protesters squared up to riot police carrying shields. Some threw bricks, cans and pots at officers.
Protesters there seized a camera from an AFP crew and broke it. The journalists were not injured.
The fresh disturbances came after police said more than 150 people had been arrested since Saturday following skirmishes at far-right rallies in Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol, Blackpool and Hull, as well as Belfast in Northern Ireland.
Rioters threw bricks, bottles and flares at police -- injuring several officers -- and looted and burnt shops, while demonstrators shouted anti-Islamic slurs as they clashed with counter-protesters.
The violence is the worst England has seen since summer 2011, when widespread rioting followed the police killing of a mixed-race man in north London.
Christian, Muslim and Jewish religious leaders in Liverpool issued a joint appeal for calm.
"We're now seeing it (trouble) flooding across major cities and towns," said Tiffany Lynch of the Police Federation of England and Wales.
Late Sunday, Staffordshire police said another hotel known to have sheltered asylum seekers was targeted near Birmingham.
"A large group of individuals" have been "throwing projectiles, smashing windows, starting fires and targeting police" at the hotel in the town of Tamworth, with one officer injured, said the statement.
Riots first flared in Southport late Tuesday following Monday's frenzied knife attack at a Taylor Swift-themed dance party in the northwest coastal city, before spreading up and down England.
They were fuelled by false rumours on social media about the background of British-born 17-year-old suspect Axel Rudakubana, who is accused of killing a six, seven, and nine-year-old, and injuring another 10 people.
Police have blamed the violence on supporters and associated organisations of the English Defence League, an anti-Islam organisation founded 15 years ago whose supporters have been linked to football hooliganism.
Agitators have targeted at least two mosques, and the UK interior ministry announced Sunday it was offering new emergency security to Islamic places of worship.
The rallies have been advertised on far-right social media channels under the banner "Enough is enough".
Participants have waved English and British flags while chanting slogans like "Stop the boats" -- a reference to irregular migrants crossing the Channel to Britain from France.
Anti-fascist demonstrators have held counter-rallies in many cities, including Leeds where they shouted, "Nazi scum off our streets", as the far-right protesters chanted, "You're not English any more".
Not all the gatherings have turned violent. A peaceful one in Aldershot, southern England, on Sunday saw participants hold placards that read "Stop the invasion" and "We're not far right, we're just right".
"People are fed up with being told you should be ashamed if you're white and working class but I'm proud white working class," 41-year-old Karina, who did not give her surname, told AFP in Nottingham on Saturday.
At last month's election, the Reform UK party led by Brexit cheerleader Nigel Farage captured 14 percent of the vote -- one of the largest vote shares for a far-right British party.
Carla Denyer, co-leader of the left-wing Green party, said the unrest should be "a wake-up call to all politicians who have actively promoted or given in" to anti-immigration rhetoric.
