TO ADVANCE THE KINGDOM WITH THE LOVE OF GOD THROUGH EDUCATION, INSPIRATION, IMPARTATION & ACTIVATION IN THE SEVEN MOUNTAINS OF POWER AND INFLUENCE GOD NEVER GAVE MAN A RELIGION, BUT AN OPPORTUNITY FOR AN INTIMATE RELATIONSHIP WITH HIS CREATOR. MAY WE COME TO KNOW HIS PRESENCE AND POWER IN EACH OF OUR LIVES.

FOR TOO LONG THE MOUNTAIN OF RELIGION IS THE ONLY MOUNTAIN THAT THE BODY OF CHRIST HAS BEEN FAMILIAR WITH OR CONCENTRATED ON. WE HAVE BEEN CONTENT TO STAY THERE BECAUSE WE WERE LEAD TO BELIEVE THAT IT IS THE ONLY PLACE GOD WANTS US TO OPERATE IN. BUT THERE ARE SIX OTHER MOUNTAINS/SPHERES OF INFLUENCE. GOD’S VISION IS LARGER THAN THE CHURCH. IT’S TIME FOR US TO SEE OURSELVES IMPACTING THOSE OTHER AREAS. GOD’S PLAN BEGINS WITH SALVATION BUT IT DOES NOT END THERE; SALVATION IS AND MUST ALWAYS BE OUR FOUNDATION, IT IS NOT THE END BUT THE MEANS TO AN END.

AT THIS TIME THE PRINCIPALITIES THAT SETS ATOP OF THE MOUNTAIN OF RELIGION IS THE SPIRIT OF RELIGION. THE BIBLE GIVES US A PORTRAIT OF THE NATION THAT REPRESENTS THIS SPIRIT, THE PERIZZITES - IDOLATRY FALSE WORSHIP. THIS DEMON IS ASSIGNED TO STEAL WORSHIP DESIGNATED FOR GOD, HIS JOB IS TO DISSOLVE, DISTRACT, DIVERT, DESTROY AND ULTIMATELY TO LEAD THE WORSHIP SERVICE ELSEWHERE.

DEUTERONOMY 7:1-2 GOD TELLS THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL THAT THEY MUST BE DESTROYED. “WHEN THE LORD YOUR GOD BRING YOU INTO THE LAND WHERE YOU ARE ENTERING TO POSSESS IT, AND CLEAR AWAY MANY NATIONS BEFORE YOU THE HITTITES, AND THE GIRGASHITES, AND THE AMORITES, AND THE CANAANITES, AND THE PERIZZITES, AND THE HIVITES, AND THE JEBUSITES, SEVEN NATIONS GREATER AND STRONGER THAN YOU, AND WHEN THE LORD YOUR GOD DELIVERS THEM BEFORE YOU AND DEFEAT THEM THEN YOU SHALL UTTERLY DESTROY THEM (DEUT. 7:1-2 NASV).

THE CHURCH HAS DONE A GOOD JOB EVANGELIZING, WINNING THE LOST SOULS BUT ONCE THEY WERE SAVED WE BROUGHT THEM INTO THE CHURCH TO TRAIN THEM TO DO CHURCH WORK INSTEAD OF THE WORK OF THE CHURCH. WE HAVE CONCENTRATED ON THOSE WITH TITLES BUT WHAT ABOUT THOSE THAT ARE SITTING IN THE PEWS THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TITLE. FOR THE MOST PART WE HAVE FOCUSED ON THE MINISTERS, PASTORS, TEACHER, DEACONS AND THE OTHER MINISTRY LEADERS TO DO THE JOB BUT GOD HAS ANOTHER AGENDA “THE SEVEN MOUNTAIN MOVEMENT” WILL TEACH AND TRAIN CHURCHES HOW TO MOVE INTO A WHOLE NEW WAY OF DOING MINISTRY. EVERYONE WILL BE DEVELOPED AND DEPLORED TO BECOME INFLUENCER AT THEIR PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT OR WHEREVER THEY MAYBE.

GOD HAS ALWAYS MEANT FOR US TO HAVE DOMINION OVER THE EARTH (GENESIS 1:26, 28). WHEN JESUS COMMISSIONED THE DISCIPLES HE TOLD THEM TO DISCIPLE NATIONS NOT JUST THE CHURCH (MATT. 28:18-20). IT’S TIME FOR THE BODY OF CHRIST TO POSITION OURSELVES TO FULFILL THE WHOLE COMMISSION.

TO PRODUCE FORMS OF COMMUNICATION BUILT ON HONESTY & INTEGRITY, DESIGNED TO REACH & INFLUENCE THE MASSES.

MEDIA IS THE MOUTHPIECE OF THE MOUNTAINS. WHETHER YOU KNOW IT OR NOT, ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL WAYS THAT YOU CAN INFLUENCE TODAY’S CULTURE IS THROUGH THE MOUNTAIN OF MEDIA. FOR EXAMPLE, CHURCHES AROUND THE WORLD THAT NORMALLY MEET ON SUNDAY MORNING CAN ONLY REACH THE AUDIENCE THAT’S PRESENT IN THE FACILITY. BECAUSE OF MEDIA SOURCES LIKE LIVE STREAMING, WE ARE NOW CAPABLE OF REACHING THE WORLD.

MEDIA HAS A TREMENDOUS IMPACT ON OUR DAILY LIVES BUT HONESTLY WHEN IT COMES TO MOST FORMS OF MEDIA, MANY PEOPLE FEEL LOST. MOST PEOPLE BELIEVE MEDIA ONLY INCLUDES DUPLICATING TAPES, CD’S, CONTROLLING THE SOUND SYSTEM OR RUNNING A CAMERA.

ALTHOUGH MEDIA PLAYS A GREAT PART IN THE CHURCH IT’S NOT LIMITED TO THE CHURCH. FOR SO LONG THE ENEMY HAS MADE CHRISTIANS BELIEVE THAT THEY CAN ONLY AFFECT THE MOUNTAIN OF MEDIA BY WHAT THEY DO IN THE FOUR WALLS OF THE CHURCH. DON’T ALLOW THOSE STUMBLING BLOCKS TO DISTORT THE POWER OF MEDIA. IN

MATT 16:23

Jesus turned and said to Peter,

"GET BEHIND ME, SATAN! YOU ARE A STUMBLING BLOCK TO ME; YOU DO NOT HAVE IN MIND THE THINGS OF GOD, BUT THE THINGS OF MEN.

" The reason that many of us in the church stumble with media is because when it comes to media sometimes we have blinders on. Blinders will have your vision focused in only on the Church but

KINGDOM

vision will take you from the Church to the World. So it’s time to get your mindset out of the box of religion and let your minds soar in the

KINGDOM.

MEDIA IS EVERYWHERE! MEDIA INCLUDES BOOKS, MAGAZINE, TELEVISION, AUDIO FORMS, NEWSPAPERS, SOCIAL NETWORKING, AND ANY OTHER TOOL USED TO TRANSPORT A MESSAGE. ALTHOUGH WE USE MEDIA DAILY AND THERE ARE MEDIA OUTLETS EVERYWHERE, THE WORLD WILL HAS US BELIEVING THAT THE ONLY WAY THAT WE CAN INFLUENCE THE MOUNTAIN OF MEDIA WOULD BE TO WORK FOR LARGE MEDIA CORPORATIONS BUT PLEASE

DONT BELIEVE THE HYPE!

MEDIA OF THE PRESENT AND THE FUTURE IS GIVEN INSTANTLY BY YOU. THE MOUNTAIN OF MEDIA IS THE MOUTHPIECE OF THE SEVEN MOUNTAINS. AS

MARK 16:15 STATES,

AND THEN HE TOLD THEM, "YOU ARE TO GO INTO ALL THE WORLD AND PREACH THE GOOD NEWS TO EVERYONE,

we must reclaim the mountain of media to spread the gospel of the Kingdom. Media is not just a form of information but a way to influence nations!

The Mountain of Government, consist of the political institutions that rule the land including federal, state, city county and municipal levels. The Mountain of Government administrates civil righteousness and justice at multiple levels. It provides rules, regulations
and power over our lives.

As the children of the Kingdom of God, we must start to infiltrate the systems of government in positions where it counts such as law making our political must help bring the Kingdom agenda back in the mountain of government.
The flow of power should be from "The Creator" to "the people" to "the government". The government was established to be non-religious but not the people serving in the government. The only way that man could truly be free was to establish a form of government that allowed man the greatest latitude to govern self. To be free, people must choose, of their own free will, to live their lives according to the Ten Commandments of God, (the 10 Commandments were the first laws given to mankind,) whether in their private lives or while serving the people in the halls of government.
<p>According to Paul, government is "ordained by God" (Romans 13:2) to promote justice, restrain evil, and protect the people under its care (Romans 13:3-4). The Ten Commandments express moral duties in a minimal and most general form, thus allowing maximum freedom in the arrangement of one's life's affairs. They are aimed at setting those boundaries which, when trespassed, can damage family and community life. Our Lord Jesus Christ in His sermons often referred to the Ten Commandments and explained their deep spiritual meaning. It gives man fundamental moral guidance for the formation of personal, family and community life. Life shows us that as long as the government in its lawmaking guides itself with these moral principles and concerns itself with their observance, life within a country flows at a normal pace.
The ungodly spirits that are ruling in the Mountain of Government are the Girgashites (Duet
7:1&2). Where God’s government is established through service and humility, Satan’s
government is established through manipulation and pride. Lucifer sits at the top of this
mountain where he specifically functions to stir and raise up whatever would defeat the
purposes of God on earth. It is our job to unseat him and take back the power and authority given to us by God himself.

REBUILDING & RESTRUCTURING CORE VALUES OF THE FAMILY UNIT.

THE FOUNDATION OF ALL CULTURE IS FAMILY. THE MOUNTAIN OF FAMILY IS THE MOST IMPORTANT AREA OF INFLUENCE THAT NEEDS TO BE REFOCUSED, RECONCILED AND RESTORED BECAUSE IT AFFECTS EVERY OTHER AREA OF INFLUENCE IN EVERY CULTURE.

IT IS SAID: “WE LIVE TODAY AMONG UNPRECEDENTED FAMILY BREAKDOWN THAT HAS CAUSED UNPRECEDENTED SOCIAL AND PHYSICAL ILLS. “ THE NUMBER ONE CAUSE OF EMOTIONAL TRAUMA IS A DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY FOUNDATION.” THE MOST VITAL ELEMENT TO THE FAMILY STRUCTURE HAS BEEN REMOVED: IT IS THE PRESENCE OF THE FATHER.

THE ABSENCE OF THE FATHER IN THE FAMILY STRUCTURE HAS RESULTED IN ALLOWING THE SPIRIT OF REJECTION, ABANDONMENT AND LOW SELF-ESTEEM TO DESTROY OUR HOMES, COMMUNITIES AND CITIES. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO PERFECT FAMILIES, GOD KNEW THAT THE FAMILY STRUCTURE WOULD BE CHALLENGED BECAUSE OF THE SIN OF MAN. BUT DESPITE WHAT MAN HAS DONE, GOD ALWAYS WANTED THE FAMILY STRUCTURE TO BE IN THE FOREFRONT.

THEREFORE A MAN SHALL LEAVE HIS FATHER AND MOTHER AND BE JOINED TO HIS WIFE,

AND THEY SHALL BECOME ONE FLESH.

And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed. (Genesis 2:21-25)

THE FAMILY IS THE HEARTBEAT OF GOD! HE IS USING THE 7 MOUNTAIN MOVEMENT TO ENLIGHTEN, EDUCATE AND EQUIP HIS PEOPLE TO HELP RESTORE THE FAMILY STRUCTURE TO THE GLORY IT ONCE HAD.

MALACHI 4:6-7 READS:

“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet Before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.

AND HE WILL TURN THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS TO THE CHILDREN, AND THE HEARTS OF THE CHILDREN TO THEIR FATHERS, LEST I COME AND STRIKE THE EARTH WITH A CURSE.”

LOVE, ACCEPTANCE, AFFIRMATION AND TRUST WILL CAUSE THE INTERNAL FAMILY STRUCTURE TO BECOME REFRESHED, REFOCUSED AND RESTORED, THUS ALLOWING HEALTHY PEOPLE TO BE RELEASED OUT OF THE FAMILY STRUCTURE INTO THE OTHER 6 MOUNTAINS OF INFLUENCE. GOD WANTS TO GIVE STRATEGIES AND VISIONS THAT WILL MARRY CHURCHES, AND OTHER SOCIAL & GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS IN CREATING RESOURCES & PROVISIONS THAT BUILD AND MAINTAIN HEALTHY FAMILIES.

TO TEACH, TRAIN & DEVELOP FOR LIFE EMPOWERMENT.

THE MOUNTAIN OF EDUCATION EXTENDS BEYOND THE “BLACK BOARD”. THE HISTORY OF OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM HAS ITS ROOTS FIRMLY PLANTED IN THE WORD OF GOD. ORIGINALLY, WE WERE TAUGHT THAT EVERYTHING MUST REVOLVE AROUND OUR CREATOR TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE. IT WAS AFTER THE INITIAL STUDY OF THE WORD THAT READING, MATH, AND SCIENCE FOLLOWED. AS THE YEARS HAVE PASSED THE ENEMY HAS CREPT INTO THIS AREA OF INFLUENCE USING SUCH TOOLS AS HUMANISM AND ATHEISM AND HAS TAKEN DOMINION OVER THIS MOUNTAIN. TODAY HUMANISM AND ATHEISM ARE TAUGHT DAILY IN OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM AND CONSEQUENTLY IS MOLDING THE MINDS OF THE LEARNER AS OPPOSED TO THE WORD OF GOD.

OUR ASSIGNMENT IN THE 21ST CENTURY IS TO RECLAIM THIS MOUNTAIN BY PLACING THE CREATIVE THINKING, STRATEGIES, AND INFLUENCE BACK INTO THE HANDS OF THE CREATIVE PEOPLE OF GOD. THE TRAINING UP OF A CHILD BEGINS THE PROCESS OF BUILDING A GODLY CREATIVE MIND. TRAIN UP A CHILD IN THE WAY HE SHOULD GO: AND WHEN HE IS OLD, HE WILL NOT DEPART FROM IT (PROVERBS 22:6)

BUT WHAT IS THE ROLE OF THE PERSON WHO DOES NOT TEACH? HOW CAN THIS PERSON INFLUENCE THE MOUNTAIN OF EDUCATION? BY EXPOSING YOUR GIFT AND SURRENDERING IT TO THE HANDS OF THE CREATOR.

STUDY TO SHEW THYSELF APPROVED UNTO GOD, A WORKMAN THAT NEEDETH NOT TO BE ASHAMED, RIGHTLY DIVIDING THE WORD OF TRUTH. (II TIMOTHY 2:15)

TO ESTABLISH & IMPROVE STANDARDS OF LIVING AND CREATE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES BY USING SKILLS, TALENTS & RESOURCES.

THE MOUNTAIN OF BUSINESS IS THE SOURCE OF SUPPLY IN THIS PHYSICAL WORLD TO MEET MAN’S NEEDS FOR FOOD, WATER, SHELTER AND HIS NEED TO SUBDUE WHILE HE LIVES ON THE EARTH. THESE ABILITIES WERE PLACED IN MAN BY GOD, BECAUSE GOD IS THE PROVIDER OF ALL THINGS. THE MOUNTAIN OF BUSINESS IS ALSO AN ENABLER OF THE OTHER MOUNTAINS, IN OTHER WORDS IT PROVIDES THE WEALTH OR SUPPLY FOR THE OTHER MOUNTAINS TO EXIST. THOSE ON THIS MOUNTAIN SHOULD NOT THINK OF WEALTH PURELY FROM THE STANDPOINT OF MONEY.

GENESIS 1:27-28: 27 SO

GOD CREATED MAN IN HIS OWN IMAGE,

in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. 28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them,

BE FRUITFUL, AND MULTIPLY, AND REPLENISH THE EARTH, AND SUBDUE IT: AND HAVE DOMINION

over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 2:15: And the Lord God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden to

DRESS IT AND TO KEEP IT.

THE MOUNTAIN OF BUSINESS IS THE RESULT OF MAN FULFILLING THIS GOD GIVEN DECREE. THE MOUNTAIN OF BUSINESS IS GOD’S WEALTH GENERATOR FOR THE EARTH TO MEET NOT JUST MAN’S NEEDS AND DESIRES BUT GOD’S NEED AND DESIRE TO ESTABLISH AND EXPAND HIS KINGDOM.

DEUTERONOMY 8:18: BUT THOU SHALT REMEMBER THE LORD THY GOD: FOR IT IS HE THAT GIVETH THEE POWER TO GET WEALTH.

EVERY BUSINESS WHETHER LEGAL OR ILLEGAL IS THE RESULT OF MAN’S EXPRESSING HIS NEED AND DESIRE FOR WEALTH, PROSPERITY AND FREEDOM. DO ALL BUSINESSES HONOR THE CREATOR? NO. IT IS THE JOB OF KINGDOM CITIZENS TO CREATE BUSINESSES OR INFLUENCE BUSINESSES IN WAYS THAT GIVE HONOR AND GLORY BACK TO THE CREATOR. THAT IS THE ROLE OF THOSE WHO HAVE A PASSION FOR THIS MOUNTAIN.

PURPOSE: TO PRODUCE QUALITY FORMS OF EXPRESSION/ENTERTAINMENT BY IDENTIFYING & CULTIVATING TALENTS. FOR BY HIM ALL THINGS WERE CREATED: THINGS IN HEAVEN AND ON EARTH, VISIBLE AND INVISIBLE, WHETHER THRONES OR POWERS OR RULERS OR AUTHORITIES; ALL THINGS WERE CREATED BY HIM AND FOR HIM. ~COLOSSIANS 1:16 NIV

THE ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT MOUNTAIN IS ALSO REFERRED TO AS THE CELEBRATION MOUNTAIN. THIS MOUNTAIN INCLUDES ARTS, MUSIC, SPORTS, FASHION, DRAMA AND EVERY OTHER WAY WE CELEBRATE OR ENJOY LIFE.

ART IS A TONGUE. THAT MEANS THE PURPOSE OF ART IS TO COMMUNICATE AND INTERCEDE IN PLACES WHERE NATURAL WORDS ALONE FAIL. "REAL" ART DOESN'T SOLVE THE MYSTERY, IT POINTS TO IT. IN THE SAME VEIN, "TRUE" ART SHOULDN'T CATER TO SOMEONE'S FAITH - IN OTHER WORDS, IT SHOULDN'T SIMPLY REINFORCE SOMEONE'S BELIEF - BUT SHOULD EXPAND AND CHALLENGE IT. IT SEEMS THAT “CHURCH ART” HAS A LONG HISTORY OF DOMINATING, BUT A SHORT HISTORY THAT ISN'T REAL FAVORABLE. IT SEEMS THAT, INSTEAD OF "POLITICALLY CORRECT", CHURCH ART HAS INCREASINGLY BECOME "RELIGIOUSLY CORRECT"- WATERED DOWN TO THE SAME CHORDS, MELODIES, COLORS, STEPS, AND TECHNIQUES THAT WON'T OFFEND, WON'T CHALLENGE TRADITION, AND WON'T GET YOU KICKED OUT...

WE, AS TODAY'S CHURCH, SEEM TO PREOCCUPY OURSELVES WITH PLUGGING CLEANLY INTO SOME CULTURAL SOCKET - HOPING TO CATCH THE CURRENT OF WHAT EXCITES PEOPLE IN THE MOMENT - BUT IN DOING THAT, WE FAIL TO COMMUNICATE TO GENERATIONS. ORIGINALITY IS A HALLMARK OF THE KINGDOM, AND LATELY, MANY OF US CHRISTIAN ARTISTS HAVE MISSED THE MARK... BUT NO MORE!!!! THIS CURRENT AND NEXT WAVE OF CHRISTIAN ARTISTS WILL BOGGLE THE NATURAL AND SUCCEED IN THE SUPERNATURAL! GOD IS GOING TO SHOWCASE THE INEXHAUSTIBLE SUPREMACY OF HIS CREATIVITY ON THE MOUNTAIN OF ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT. GOD’S SPIRIT WANTS TO MOVE FREELY THROUGH THE CREATIVITY AND PASSION OF HIS PEOPLE. EVERY FORM OF ART, SPORT, MUSIC, LITERATURE, MOVIES AND ANY OTHER FORM OF CELEBRATION NEEDS TO BE PRODUCED GOD'S WAY - BY BEING IN HIS PRESENCE AND LETTING HIS CREATIVITY FLOW THROUGH THEM.

IT KINDA GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT GOD CREATED ALL FORMS OF ART - WHETHER YOU APPROVE OF THEM OR NOT - AND GOD CHOOSES EACH TO POINT TO HIS GRAND MYSTERY. EACH CHORD, EACH MELODY, EACH POEM, EACH SCENE, EVEN EACH CAKE SHOULD LEND A CLUE TO WHO HE WAS AND WHO HE IS!!! ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT IS MORE THAN MUSIC IN THE AIR, MORE THAN COLOR ON A CANVAS. THE SPECTRUM OF ARTS INCLUDES CHEFS, DESIGNERS, ATHLETES, ACTORS AND MORE! IF YOU ARE AN ARTIST, YOUR ART IS VALID AND QUALIFIED AND NECESSARY. YOUR WORK HAS THE POTENTIAL TO SHAPE CULTURE, COMMUNICATE TRUTH, MOLD GENERATIONS, AND VALIDATE EMOTION - SO JOINUS! HOLD HANDS WITH OTHER ARTISTS AND WATCH THE WORLD CHANGE BY SIMPLY DOING WHAT YOU LOVE TO DO - IT'S THAT EASY!

YOU WILL SHOW ME THE PATH OF LIFE; IN YOUR PRESENCE IS FULLNESS OF JOY; AT YOUR RIGHT HAND ARE PLEASURES FOREVERMORE. ~ PSALM 16:1
