God's Media Army: Global Changers and A Holy Mafia

Because I am an artist and I was born and raised in Hollywood, clean and decent movies have been a way for me to relax and have fun. There are some great films being released! I love movies like: The Passion, Braveheart, The Guardian, The Ultimate Gift, Chariots of Fire, The Lion, Witch, and the Wardrobe, One Night with the King, The Unfinished Life, and many more. I have a real passion for the movie industry, but the contents of many movies today are very evil, perverted, violent, and subtly laced with the occult.

But the other side of the coin is that we don't want to just throw everything in the electronic age out the window. We need to wake up to the power of communications and the media! They are going to be powerfully used by the Lord to harvest whole nations. Dreamer God is on the move!

Being an artist myself, I love the theatre, music, movies, and the dance! It makes me fully alive and in touch with my God, who is very colorful and creative! I have such a heart for the arts!

Part of the war is because these are global trendsetters who will significantly affect all of society. We need to be the forerunners who move with excellence, are on the cutting edge, and we need to produce the best of the best in all of these fields. This is one of the most strategic battle fronts we face because it affects the minds, hearts, and passions of the masses.

The Church should be actively empowering and cheering on the "Bravehearts" who are gifted in these arenas, instead of judging and dismissing every one of them as "evil," which is ignorance. Because we've been religious and critical, we've lost control of one of the most influential avenues of evangelism in the 21st century! We really need to repent, take back the territory we've lost, and infiltrate all of these ranks...for Jesus! Let's redeem the arts together!

If Jesus were literally walking the earth today, I know He would use the media because it has global impact of parables that are prophetic and carry hidden truths. They are like time capsules of revelation that are released over the centuries. Every movie that is released in Hollywood has cultural influence--for the good or for the bad--that impacts the world and the generations to come. God needs to capture these influential avenues of communication again!

We are up against evil powers and principalities as we contend to take back what's been stolen. This is heavy spiritual warfare and we need to move with the power of the Holy Spirit, asking for strategies, revelation, keen discernment, and wisdom for these battles. We must use "The Sword of the Lord," which I talk about in my new book, Dancing with Destiny: Awaken Your Heart to Dream, to Love, to War.
God's Dream Team: A Holy Mafia

High adventures await us as we become culturally relevant to impact the world with first class, top-notch, extraordinary performances in all of these avenues! I feel that the Holy Spirit is prophetically downloading fresh scripts to screen writers for theatre, film, and drama. He is positioning actors and actresses, along with musicians, singers, and dancers, to speak the heart of God to the masses through every form of art.

Today, Jesus "produces" movies by influencing others in these areas. He also challenges and inspires financiers, marketplace advertisers, and entrepreneurs to help bring Biblical truths to humanity. Jesus moves with excellence, and He wants to draw the world back to Himself, using the very best plays, movies, music, and dance that would astound the world with extraordinary giftedness! Why not!!!

I feel that God wants to give dreams, visions, and fresh revelation from Heaven for these forms of media, the arts, and communication. Inspiration and revelation with application, must accompany these tangible earthly projects. Many people talk about what they want to do but so few actually DO it! This is a call for action! Let's storm the gates and take the world by storm!! We must put "shoe leather" to our visions and dreams because they will be strategic to awaken peoples' destinies and callings.

As we are dealing with these areas, we must pray that God will give us the brilliant ideas of the entrepreneurs, the creative imaginations of gifted people in these areas, and the financiers to fund these radical projects. God is raising up men and women who are like a dream team, ones who move in hearing the voice of God and creating world trends.

I love the internet! We live in the 21st century and the electronic age where almost anything is possible and limitations are no longer an excuse. It is amazing because the internet brings an instant platform that touches the world. Computers are in most homes and schools. The world is connecting in internet coffee shops, Muslim and Communist nations, as well as remote third world nations. With the internet, you are not limited by your education, gender, nationality, age, or finances because almost everyone has access to it. Boundless opportunities for learning are at our finger tips!

Not only is the Lord raising up people in entrepreneurial areas, but He is also moving creatively through stay-at-home parents, retired folks, internet bloggers, savvy yuppies, bed-ridden people who have access to computers, the techie twenty-somethings, and even little children who can travel through electronic windows and electronic highways of the world.
