Crossing Over


The Lord spoke to me this morning and said, “Tell my people they are crossing over. Tell my people that those who did not believe are not.” The Lord was showing me the seriousness of the time we are in. He was showing me that there were two types of people in the Bible when it was time to cross over. There were the ones who complained and murmured against the Lord’s servant and then there were the few, the Joshua’s and the Caleb’s, who stood by Moses. Out of all the Israelites that came out of Egypt only a remnant actually crossed over into the Promised Land and it will be the same for our time. 

 

The Lord is very serious when it comes to how we treat his chosen servants, the Fathers of the faith. The Lord was angry with the ones who complained against Moses. Because they dishonored their spiritual father Moses, it aroused the anger of the Lord and brought a plague on Israel. The end is about separating those who honor their fathers from those who don’t. Malachi prophesied, “And he will turn the hearts of the children to their fathers, Lest I come and strike the earth with a curse” (Malachi 4:6). In the New Testament Jesus said, “He who hears you hears Me, he who rejects you rejects Me, and he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me” (Luke 10:16). By this, we see that it’s not really the fathers you are coming against, it’s the Lord Himself you are rejecting. 

 

Saints, we’re coming into a huge battle, like nothing anyone has ever seen. In the wilderness, those who couldn’t cross over were the ones who gave a bad report, like the spies did when they went into the Promised Land. They were too afraid to fight those giants. The problem was not the giants, the problem was the way they saw themselves -  they did not know who they were. It is the mature who know who they are. The murmurers and complainers are the ones who did not want to eat the manna, His divine teachings. Instead, they wanted to go back to lazy and complacent Christianity. They wanted to go back to get their ears tickled in Egypt. 

 

Numbers 14:9 is a NOW word: “Only do not rebel against the LORD, nor fear the people of the land, for they are our bread; their protection has departed from them, and the LORD is with us. Do not fear them.” The judgment of God is coming for them, for the fallen ones in the Earth. The Lord is stripping the kingdom of darkness and they are going to be taken down by the remnant. 

 

We need to remember that Joshua and Caleb were the only ones who crossed over, and they took the younger generation with them. Besides Joshua and Caleb, the older generation of their time was rebellious, dishonoring their father Moses, and rejecting God’s manna. Joshua and Caleb were fearless to face those giants - they knew who they were in the Spirit. The manna (hidden Word) gave them the strength to cross over and face those giants knowing and believing the Word of the Lord. We know that “crossing over” also means “to overcome.” Jesus said that he who overcomes will be given a rod to rule the nations” (Revelation 2:26-27). The time to cross over is now as the remnant is stepping into position! Amen. 

 

 

Sincerely,

Apostle Michael Petro

Passover 2021 and the Final Move of God

Image
As the congregation gathered for Passover, there was a tangible presence of the Lord in worship. But even in the midst of it, the Lord was telling me that some are still holding onto a spirit of pride and it’s time to let it go. The Lord wants that spirit killed now. Too many are sitting back to observe, worried about what they’re going to look like, but this is not the time to spectate. This is the time to enter in. There was a heavy anointing for healing as almost every person rushed to the front. Many were slain in the Spirit and many cried out in travail. The spirit of revival began to break out. The Lord told me that He is releasing a new anointing for this season, but we have to learn to be sensitive to the Spirit of God. The Lord will pass by those who won’t humble themselves to enter in. The days of pride and the carnal mind are over. It’s time to enter in to the Spirit of Yah. As the presence intensified, some were crying, some were repenting, some were soaking in the presen

The Torah

We have been taught that the final harvest has to do with people, but the Early Church taught that the harvest is actually the fruit in our lives. Understanding what that fruit is and how it is produced by the Torah is the foundation for the final move of God. The Early Church’s understanding of fruit goes against modern day church’s theology. For one, most churches have thrown out the Torah, and instead teach that Jesus did it all at the cross. Fourth century Early Church Father, Eusebius, speaks about those who have done away with the Torah:   “ Some of the heretics simply deny the Law and the Prophets for the sake of their own doctrine . And under the pretense of grace , they have sunk down to the lowest abyss of perdition .”   This proves that the message, “We’re not under the law - we’re under grace” was not part of the Christian faith and was not believed by the Early Church - it is heresy. That is why I thank God for getting me out of that belief system that would’ve taken me st

The Time is Now

The Time is Now The atmosphere is charged with warfare right now and we should be feeling it in the Spirit. While one party is pushing socialism and communism, the true patriots are standing up to fight. As the body of Christ, we should be all the more prepared and determined to come against these opposing forces with everything we have. We need to remember that our lives are not our own. In the Early Church, those who renounced Christ so that their lives would be spared were not welcomed back. The Lord is looking for those who are prepared to battle no matter the cost. When Elijah met with the prophets of Baal it became a battle for the nation: God’s true prophet facing the false prophets within the corrupt system. Today’s mainstream media have become those false messengers; they’re the prophets of Baal who have an agenda that only exalts the message of Jezebel. It’s a deadly mixture of governmental intimidation and false religion. This false seed is what births the one world governm
