Recently, our granddaughter, Chloe, spent a week with us. We watched only two things all week: Cars and Finding Nemo. I loved them both, even the 12th time over. Here is a picture of what she and I looked like:

In Finding Nemo, because of his disobedience and his dad’s fear and trauma from the past, Nemo finds himself in a dangerous mess. He now ends up out of the sea in an aquarium in a dentist’s office in Sydney, Australia. His dad and a friend pursue finding him. They do unite and attempt to make their journey back to their dwelling place. However, there are seagulls all along the way … and seagulls love fish! In the movie, every time the entire flock of seagulls sees a potential morsel, or dinner, or lunch, or breakfast, they shout….."Mine, mine, mine!" and contend for the prize.

In a carnal, material world, we are much the same. We compete for the prize instead of pressing for the prize! We contend and war with each other because we think we are entitled to have what we want. Penny Jackson shared the following with me about "Entitlement."

My situation with spending money is much the same. There is nothing inherently wrong with spending money until I cross a line and find myself in a bind. Yet at the time I am shopping, I feel completely justified in getting what I want because I sure didn’t get the things I felt I should have—life things. And so it becomes important for me to look at the matter and locate the deception in it; it’s a “mind-set” that smacks of the pit of hell.

So what gives someone a sense of entitlement? In the United States we are born with a sense of entitlement anyway, I think, which may be the open door to this thing. We have certain expectations because of where we live and how life should be for us who live here (or so we have been led to believe). And somewhere along the line I think we have gotten the idea that we are entitled to a loving husband or wife, obedient children, and a lovely home in a tree-shaded neighborhood.

I don’t know. Maybe it’s a holdover from old black-and-white TV shows. Think Father Knows Best or Leave It to Beaver. I grew up watching The Waltons, and when my parents weren’t Olivia and John Walton, I was disappointed. Weren’t parents supposed to be that way? Yet, how could anyone live up to such a romantic, unrealistic pattern for parenthood?

So now I sit here years later with age fifty in my rearview mirror, no husband in sight, and no children at all (obedient or otherwise). My parents weren’t the Waltons, I don’t have access to unlimited funds (although ours is the wealthiest country in the world), and something deep within me works behind the scenes to convince me that I ought to be able to do whatever I want to since I didn’t get those things that were owed me. I can eat what I want if I want to because I didn’t have the blissful childhood I wanted. I can spend money irresponsibly because I don’t have a husband or kids and was supposed to have had those things, and so I deserve whatever I want that is within my power to get. Somebody owes me! It’s crazy, really, but it’s down there. And hand-in-hand with it is unreality. The world isn’t perfect, even in the United States. You are probably saying, “Duh. How could anybody really think that?” But dig down deep. See if on some level there isn’t something in you that thinks it should be and that you should have had a certain kind of life—not because of anything you have done, but just because of your existence on the planet.

We are created to live a life of praise, and yet this sense of entitlement, besides causing us to live in a mind-set of expectation rather than expectancy (two vastly different things), leads to the very antithesis of gratitude—malcontentment and ingratitude. It causes a childish cry within us that says, “How come they got that and I didn’t? It’s not fair!”

The apostle, Paul, said that he had learned to be content in whatsoever situation, whether abased or abounding (Philippians 4:12). And we are to give thanks in all things. I think as Christians we really do want to do that and try to do that. But I also think the Lord in His infinite mercy is allowing us (or me, at least) to get down to a lie that makes it hard to feel really grateful sometimes, even with our best intentions. And I think He is letting us see the cause of a restlessness and discontent that drives us at times for reasons we don’t understand.

If we don’t look at entitlement squarely in the face and identify it, we can’t deal with it. Until we can fall out of agreement with entitlement and unreality and know that there is a plan for us that supersedes that one we felt we “deserved” or that life owed us, we will view our circumstances through a distorted filter, at least on some level. But as we look at this honestly as the lie that it is, I think we will find such a joy and gratitude rising up within us spontaneously that our lives will never be the same because—you know what?—we serve a good God, and He wants to give us the desires of our hearts. He came to give us life, and life more abundantly—more than we can hope for or even imagine.

You know, there was another definition for entitle in my dictionary: “to qualify; to give a claim by the possession of suitable qualifications.” Through the blood of Jesus and our acceptance of Him as our personal Lord and Savior, we are qualified and can lay claim to the wonderful promises He has given us, and these promises are “Yes and amen.” To that we are entitled. Praise God!

Day 22 Issachar Devotion: Self-Pity Demands Entitlement!

Dear Overcoming Saints:

Self-pity Demands Entitlement! When self is in control, we demand our way and our right to secure something! The opposite of embracing your portion is feeling you are entitled to a portion that you are not to have. Entitle means “to super scribe or prefix as a title. Hence, as titles are evidences of claim or property, entitle is to give a claim to, or to give a right to demand or receive.” So many families and ministries have been split because of this demon that aligns with our carnal nature. Entitlement works with self-pity and demands, "That should be mine." Sometimes, the "that" that you are demanding, should be yours but not at the cost of you falling into fleshly ways of entitlement and like Eve, "eat of the forbidden fruit out of time.

We have a very good friend who lives in Houston. She is one of the most gifted individuals I know. She is one who strives to press through to understand herself. Not only does she wish to know who she is, but she also wants to know why God made her and why she has problems with Him when He is seemingly quiet. Understanding why she reacts the way she does and how God reacts to her are all quests of her life. She wrote me the following when she was seeking to understand why she felt entitled:

Recently I have found myself throwing the phrase “a sense of entitlement” around quite a bit—not about myself, of course, but about others. I have been concerned about those who are dealing with that issue, and so, of course, the Lord showed me how I, too, have that in my life. (Will I never learn?) I have become interested in it, though, as I see it rearing its ugly head in my life. As a friend of mine and I were discussing the ongoing irritation of eating problems and how to handle them, he said, “It has to do with a sense of entitlement.” BINGO! I knew the minute he said it that he was onto something. Yesterday was bill-paying day, and again I wondered why managing money was so difficult for me. BAM! It hit me again: entitlement. I think I am entitled. I think I have known that in the dim recesses of my mind, but I have never looked it straight in the face. What am I entitled to? A payback.

How demonic is that! A payback? I am a child of the living God, the bride of Christ, a child of the covenant, a friend of God. And I’m entitled to a payback? Well, of course I’m not. In fact, I should live such a life of gratitude that I say “thank YOU” at every turn of a corner. And there are so many things that are no longer an option in this life with Christ, things we used to enjoy but no longer feel comfortable doing. Rather than covet those old things and old habits, we turn to an activity that really isn’t “wrong”—like eating. We feel entitled to do that because we can’t do these other things anymore. And so we engage until we reach a point and realize that we have overindulged and crossed a line.

Live by grace and not by law! Love does not demand its own way! Freely He gave so freely give!

Day 21: Expectations Gone and Self Pity Remains! Never Give in to Self-Pity!

The opposite of confidence and worth is self-pity. Self-pity occurs when we feel we are warranted to receive but get passed by. This can occur in our natural or spiritual life. Self-pity helps define our moment or, may I say, cause us to miss our moment. We feel we are deserving or entitled to a blessing, and we lose faith when we see a blessing slip past our life.

One of the best examples of self-pity is the crippled man at the Pool of Bethesda (see John 5). Jesus knew his full condition and then, through Peter, asked the man if he wished to be healed. The man began to explain why he had not and could not be healed. Jesus seemed to quit listening to his self-pity and healed him anyway.

We can easily lose sight of God’s promises when we are in difficult situations. This is often how we get off target in seeing God fulfill our prophetic destiny. Even though the Body of Christ goes through great times of testing, we are not to grow fearful and be discouraged. The enemy takes advantage during our testing periods by using a strategy to discourage us. Discouragement breeds hope deferred, which makes the heart sick. When we have a measure of hopelessness within us, we lose our expectation of God.

“Future” and “expectation” are synonymous. Our future is linked with an expectation of God moving. This is a time for the Church to have its expectation level renewed and raised to another level. Isaiah 59 and 60 are wonderful prayer guides for us to follow to see this happen in our lives. Hope must transcend and move into faith. Faith produces overcoming. Overcoming leads to a demonstration of God’s power and a manifestation of His promises.

The Cycle of Self Pity…
Prophecy unlocks our future. But once we get wounded or experience loss, we can lose sight of our future. The biggest demonic force that we have to contend with is self-pity. Self-pity draws attention to our loss and keeps us from seeing God’s glory manifested in our life. Instead of our loss directing us to God’s continued perfect plan for our life, our self rises up and causes us to say, “Pity me for what I have lost.” Any time we experience loss, trauma, wounding or injustice, we can either choose to live with a belief system that God can heal and forgive or we can allow our mind-set to form rejection, self-defense and self-pity.

During times of loss and wounding, we have a tendency to accuse God for the trauma that we are experiencing. The power of this accusation leads to a type of fatherlessness. Instead of experiencing the spirit of adoption, we feel abandoned and lost. From our self-defense, we actually form a rebellion to authority. We also become unteachable. We have a mind-set that says, “No one understands me or what I am going through.”

We also begin to think that there is no solution to our problem. We wake up thinking, “There is no way out.” We fall into apathy because we have no hope of healing or restoration. Since we know that we should be living a godly life, religious mechanisms become a solace to us. We may even gain a martyr complex and say, “O woe is me. This is my cross to bear. Look how heavy is my cross.” This type of thinking causes us to not fight when we need to fight. Instead of fighting and advancing, we become a slave to comfort and the status quo. We forget that we are called to fellowship with Christ’s sufferings—a type of fellowship that leads to His resurrection power manifesting in us.

Losing sight of the love of God causes us to turn to self. God’s love forces us to deal with these thoughts born of our self-pity. I have experienced enough freedom in my own life to know when I am not free. Faith works by love. Once we experience God’s liberty and love, we will be able to resist that call from self to be pitied and be able to overthrow hope deferred.

Blessings,
Chuck D. Pierce

Dear Rejoicers in the New:

Remembering a Warrior
I have to this day never met anyone like Diane Buker. Unique. Though I traveled the world with her, she always made me feel at home. She was like God in that she never seemed to change in her disposition and outlook on life. She made us all very confident because she was on our team. I knew that if a fight broke out in the Spirit, we would win.

I would always say about her, "Diane, if someone has to be sent into the midst of Hell, we will send you first!” No place of darkness in the earth realm or spiritual dimension seemed to bother her because she was always filled with the Glory.

I am reminded of the movie Glory. This movie was about the 54^th Massachusetts, an infantry regiment composed of black volunteers, who overcame discrimination and hardship to move together as a regiment in the Civil War. There had to be an invasion of the enemy stronghold with the Standard of Flag preceding the troops who were following. The portion of the movie that affected me the most was when the Standard Bearer lifted the flag, rallied the troops and ran toward the fort. When this soldier could go no further, he relinquished the standard to another behind him then who rallied the troops, ever moving forward. The undying faithfulness of the Standard Bearer kept the standard moving forward into enemy territory.

Jesus, who came to destroy the works of the enemy, created a standard by going first to redeem mankind. Diane was like the Standard Bearer. Jesus could always count on her to go before the other soldiers, carrying His standard. He knew that she would not shrink back in the fight. She would enter the most hellish wars with the enemy on earth. Eventually, the enemy's territory would be invaded and the Standard of God would be established that would determine the future consequence of that territory.

Now see her as part of that cloud of witnesses throwing that standard back to us and saying, "Keep pushing forward!"  She pressed into Glory and she is saying “the war on earth is worth the vision of the King." To David and her children – thank you.

Tuesday Morning Prayer
For the month of August, we will NOT be gathering onsite on Tuesday mornings at 6:00 AM for prayer. Instead, we will replay key prayer gatherings that you can watch by webcast. Just go to www.gloryofzion.org and select “Webcast Information” for a complete listing of all of our webcast replays.

Please note that we will continue to have our “Getting Over the Hump and Taking Our Hill” service on Wednesday’s at noon. So, everyone is welcome to join us onsite each Wednesday this month. But on Tuesday mornings, make plans to join us by webcast only.

A Time of Vexation
These are times that you must stay in faith. Without faith, we cannot please God. I am finishing writing the book: A Time to SEE: Moving Past the Enemy’s Vexing Power. The Hebrew word mehuwmah (meh-hoo-maw') means confusion or uproar leading to destruction, discomfiture, trouble, and tumult. When your spirit is vexed, your whole life seems confused. I love the book of Deuteronomy which records where Moses reviewed all the Law, Torah, and the wilderness wanderings of a people. The children of Israel had been vexed for the last 40 years because of decisions they made that were influenced by unbelief and fear (Numbers 14). However, now the time had come for the people to move forward past the confusion, uproar, and trouble of the last season.

Moses explained all the blessings that were available to this people in the future if they would obey. He then shared about the power of vexation coming on them, spirit, soul, and body, if they did not follow after the Lord’s way. “The Lord shall send you curses, confusion, and rebuke in every enterprise to which you set your hand, until you are destroyed, perishing quickly because of the evil of your doings by which you have forsaken me [Moses and God as one].” (Deut. 28:20, AMP) This is the concept of vexation that is linked with our disobedience to the Word of God. There comes a time to leave your wilderness and enter into the next level of prosperity for your life. However, if you will review every one of your wilderness times then you will see that the word became much more powerful in your life.

I am praying that the heat of summer and the trials of your life do not vex your spirit.

Blessings,
Chuck D. Pierce

Day 19 Issachar Devotion: Lift Up Your Eyes for Faith is Coming to You Now in a New Way!

I felt led today to send you a grouping of Scriptures put together in a sequence that is really speaking to me. Sometimes, I allow the Lord to take one Scripture that speaks and let a train of revelation begin. Anne Tate always says, “There’s ‘juice’ on that word. This is so hot!”

This will speak to you. Pray the whole word out loud.

“I WILL lift up my eyes to the hills [around Jerusalem, to sacred Mount Zion and Mount Moriah] — From whence shall my help come? [Jer. 3:23.] My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip or to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber. [1 Sam. 2:9; Ps. 127:1; Prov. 3:23,26; Isa. 27:3.] Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.”

“The Lord is your keeper; the Lord is your shade on your right hand [the side not carrying a shield]. [Isa. 25:4.] The sun shall not smite you by day, nor the moon by night. [Ps. 91:5; Isa. 49:10; Rev. 7:16.] The Lord will keep you from all evil; He will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore. [Deut. 28:6; Prov. 2:8; 3:6.]” (Psalm 121, AMP)

“NOW FAITH is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]. For by [faith — trust and holy fervor born of faith] the men of old had divine testimony borne to them and obtained a good report. By faith we understand that the worlds [during the successive ages] were framed (fashioned, put in order, and equipped for their intended purpose) by the word of God, so that what we see was not made out of things which are visible.” (Hebrews 11:1-4, AMP)

“For once you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. But all things that are exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: ‘Awake, you who sleep, arise from the dead, and Christ will give you light.’ See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” (Ephesians 5)

“WAIT and listen, everyone who is thirsty! Come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Yes, come, buy [priceless, spiritual] wine and milk without money and without price [simply for the self-surrender that accepts the blessing]. [Rev. 21:6,7; 22:17.] Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your earnings for what does not satisfy? Hearken diligently to Me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness [the profuseness of spiritual joy]. [Jer. 31:12-14.] Incline your ear [submit and consent to the divine will] and come to Me; hear, and your soul will revive; and I will make an everlasting covenant or league with you, even the sure mercy (kindness, goodwill, and compassion) promised to David. [2 Sam. 7:8-16; Acts 13:34; Heb. 13:20.] …For My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways My ways, says the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain and snow come down from the heavens, and return not there again, but water the earth and make it bring forth and sprout, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, [2 Cor. 9:10.] so shall My word be that goes forth out of My mouth: it shall not return to Me void [without producing any effect, useless], but it shall accomplish that which I please and purpose, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it. For you shall go out [from the spiritual exile caused by sin and evil into the homeland] with joy and be led forth [by your Leader, the Lord Himself, and His word] with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. (Isaiah 55)

Wait—the waters are rising! Come by faith into a new place that I AM leading you to!

This Sunday at Glory of Zion (August 1, 2010)
Join us at 8:00 AM with the Power of Lift Service and then move into embracing the Word, experiencing His power, and seeing His demonstration. Robert Heidler will be teaching on “The Eye of the Needle: Pressing Through to Enlarge!” At 10:15 AM we continue with our "Power of Use" Service with more worship followed by Keith Pierce ministering on “You Are Gifted: Discipline Will Define Your Gift!” If you are unable to join us on Sunday morning, you can watch the "on demand" webcast replay through Wednesday evening.

Day 18 Issachar Devotion: He Can Redeem!

Dear Friends:

I don’t often write you, but felt led to write this morning. I was thinking of these tumultuous times. When Chuck asked me to write the foreword for his book, Redeeming the Time, I shared the following:

“Time…We waste it, manage it, even kill it, but when it’s gone, we can never get it back. Or can we? In this book by my husband, the concept of redeeming time is explored through the eyes of a man who understands and appreciates the value of time and the need that all of us experience: the need to buy back time, correct our mistakes, and wipe clean our spiritual slates.

Chuck and I both experienced childhoods stained with alcoholism and its accompanying effects. Like the children of many alcoholics, we felt cheated out of normal, functional family life and would have welcomed the opportunity to go back in time and get another chance with one or both of our parents. And yet, we both recognize that who we are today is largely due to the circumstances of our childhoods. Fortunately, we don’t have access to a literal, physical time machine so we aren’t free to go back and tamper with the challenges that shaped us. We do, however, have access to the redemptive power of the eternal One who makes all things work together for our good and His purposes.

There are concepts and principles that center around the mystery and wonder of time as God defines and ordains them. In spite of how we humans squander the time we are given or try to manipulate the clock to fit into our plans, God is ultimately the One in control. Because of this, we can enter into a new dimension of faith where time is concerned. With a new understanding of time and God’s redemptive plan for each one of us—whether past, present, or future—we can embark on a whole new adventure where time is concerned.

Regardless of your circumstances right now, you can face the future with hope knowing that the God of your past and present is ordering your steps. Open your heart and your mind to the reality of God’s presence in every cycle of your life. Let’s prepare to shift into new calls and new victories.”

What I would like to say to you is this: we are in difficult times! Many of you are walking in trying, hard places. I want to be a testimonial to you today and say that you can endure and make your way through these distressing, narrow, hard places. You will be a triumphant overcomer! Your testimony can be used against the enemy who attempted to hurt, block, and even destroy the purposes of God in you. Remember, this is not just about you, but the God who dwells within you. You have surrendered your life to Him; let each of us allow Him to rise within us. In doing so causing the enemy’s plans to be defeated. He came to destroy the devil’s works. Greater is He who is in you that he who is in the world!

Blessings,
Pamela J. Pierce
