CTWJLI, which is my third book, is now available at http://www.bookbaby.com.

The actual link to my page where you can find my bio information as well as the direct links to each of my books is: https://store.bookbaby.com/websearch/index.aspx?searchterms=Kevin+Drury

All three of my books would be great Christmas gifts or gifts for any occasion. They are amazing resources for anyone’s library.

Welcome To the Wildnerness is about God’s process of promotion. Leaving The Land Of Your Limitations is about leaving every real or perceived limitation and going to where Jesus has always seen you and is calling you. Christianity the Way Jesus Lived It is about representing [re-presenting] Jesus the Christ to a world desperately looking for truth.

I am encouraging those who want my books to purchase them from BookBaby and not Amazon. The reason is BookBaby pays triple the royalties that Amazon does.

For the paperback version of Welcome to the Wildnerness, you need to email me. It was my first book published and I am the distributor for the paperback version. You can email me at gatesmasher@gmail.com.

These books and others that I am currently writing and will eventually publish, along with the Bible as the foundation, are the materials that Donna and I use when we disciple people to the Lordship of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Our ministry is Revolution Movement and our website, if you are interested, is http://www.revolutionmovement.org.

Merry Christmas!

Receive and steward God’s passion, power, presence, priority, process, promises, protection, provision, pruning, purging, purity, and purpose!

Lying

Good morning from the glorious Golden Isles of Georgia, 


Today is December 1st. Thanksgiving is in our rearview mirror and Christmas is approaching at warp speed. 


Jesus wasn’t born on December 25th. In fact, many believe He was born in September or October. I have no idea when He was born. I don’t know anyone who was there that day.


I do know that He was born because I have personally met Him. Because I have met Him I celebrate Christmas daily. Giving gifts is a lifestyle, not a day. “It is more blessed to give than to receive [Acts 20:35].”


I have been thinking about lies and how they can become so normal in our life, as well as how we justify them so easily.


I have been in some type of ministry for four decades. I have worked with a lot of people through the years who struggled with lying. Many have the same problem with lying as they do with forgiveness. People tend to be able to forgive others all the while not being able to forgive themselves. In fact, most never consider they can and should forgive themselves. I have even met some that believed God would forgive them but they couldn’t or wouldn’t forgive themselves. That is tragic!


In the same way, many people who would never tell another person a lie, lie to themselves all the time.


Jesus called Himself THE Way, not just any ole way. Jesus called Himself THE Life, not just any ole life. And Jesus called Himself THE Truth, not just any ole truth. A half-truth is still a lie! 


The Bible says [Numbers 23:19], “God is not a man that He should lie.” God became a Man and He still hasn’t lied.


During the next few weeks, as you gear up to celebrate the birth of the Savior of all mankind, I encourage you to ask the Spirit of truth what lies are in your life. As He reveals them to you collect them in one container and give them to Him. Watch to see what happens to them. Lastly, ask Him if He has anything to give to you in exchange for all the lies you have believed.

Wait for it!

I believe He has some special gifts that are truly life-changing for you.


After all, it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Jesus is the Gift that keeps on giving!


Receive and steward God’s passion, power, presence, priority, process, promises, protection, provision, pruning, purging, purity, and purpose!

Fast Food Christianity

There is great value in investing time and money to travel to conferences where anointed ministers can impart some spiritual gift to us through their teaching and or hands on ministry.

I know from personal experience how impactful, and transformational those events, and the God encounters I have experienced in them have been in my life. God has even used me in miraculous ministry when I have preached and ministered in large and small public meetings.

So, if you can get to a conference or special service where there is an authentic, anointed minister who moves in kingdom power and authority then by all means go, get all that God has for you, and then take what you receive and go to work on deepening your relationship with God.

Even Paul said he wanted to impart some spiritual gift to the saints residing in Rome. He then went on to warn them about immaturity and irresponsibility with the gift of salvation God gave them, and the spiritual gift he would deposit in them.

Certain behaviors attract God’s wrath!

Paul also wrote this to the saints in Ephesus.

“11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; 12 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ: 13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ: 14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; 15 But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: 16 From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.” [Ephesians 4 KJV]

Take a look at what the gifts of Christ do and what the response of the saints must be!

While there is great value in attending conferences and anointed services there is a much greater value in investing time and money in paying whatever price is required to travel into the written Word of God, and allow the Holy Spirit to impart revelation and spiritual gifts directly to us.

Now:

Are you immature in spiritual matters?

Do you have a specific mature person who is discipling you to the fullness of the stature of Jesus Christ?

If not, you need to ask God to send you to that person, or send that person to you, and then employ them to help you grow up.

We live in an ever changing, speeding up, fast paced fast food Christian conference culture, and I am concerned the Body of Christ, and the world at large, is suffering because of it.

Along with that much “church” growth is in the seeker sensitive genre of Christianity where very few if any are maturing and one reason is the “teaching” lasts maybe 20 minutes, and is primarily superficial story telling. And when they do have Bible study they stay away from “the controversial aspects” of Christianity.

What? Jesus the Christ is still the most controversial Person to have ever lived and churches are “staying away from” controversial core teachings about the Christ.

Everyone has a path and a process that is inherit in their divine purpose. Shortcuts are not advantageous to our ultimate purpose. Ministry is work and we must work to be prepared for ministry as ministers of the gospel of the kingdom of God. Every believer is supposed to be a minister regardless of vocation.

It has been said that it takes God at least 20 years to develop a mature minister, and that is when they are under the tutelage of a mature person who disciples them to Christ. Even Jesus was not released to minister until He was 30 years old.

He had 3.5 years of nearly 24 hours a day to invest in His disciples. That may not equate to 20 years in a contemporary discipleship relationship but we are talking about Jesus. He said, “It is to your advantage that I go away.” The purpose was the arrival of the Holy Spirit. So, the Holy Spirit is our Advantage.

Are you taking full advantage of the Advantage?

Receive and steward God’s passion, power, presence, priority, process, promises, protection, provision, pruning, purging, purity and purpose!
