“The True-Life of Faith!” A Revelatory Teaching Message Through The Ministry Of Thomas Manton IV

True, Bold And Raw Confidence In God By Faith Is Too Often A Vital Missing-Ingredient In Many Christian’s Lives! Hebrews 11:6 instructs us to come before God, believing that He is our ‘Living-Blesser!’Scripture tells us that He will reward us as we diligently seek Him and do His Will! Matthew 6:33 tells us, all things will be added to us, as we seek His Kingdom and His righteousness. God’s blessings flow mightily in the lives of those people that are properly situated and doing His will!

Confidence In Yourself In God’s Gifting, Anointing & Mighty Hand Upon Your Life Is Necessary For Promotion, Acceleration & Production! In Numbers 13:33, we see how the children of Israel ‘sunk’ under the mocking-gazes and filthy-words of their enemies. Unfortunately, they saw themselves as inferior ‘victims;’ while they were supposed to be the ‘victors’ from God’s own Army!Too often, peoples’ own insecurities and weak ‘self-portraits’ have painted a bad-image of them even in the minds of their enemies. Others can also view you based on how you see yourself!

Boldness In Your Posture & Stance In Who God Actually Is In You, Is Vital For Your Moving Ahead In Life! A good testimony: I’ve had several properties given to me free-of-charge over the years: in Dallas, London, North Carolina, Orlando, Daytona Beach, Ft.Lauderdale, etc…By faith …As I travelled ministering by God’s direction in releasing territorial-outpourings of the Holy Spirit through the Ministry assignments He gave me to perform in those regions, at those times. And I really thank Him for that. I’ve also received, and given away again, more than a dozen cars: including Mercedes-Benz, Cadillac, American hot-rods, imported sports-cars, and a custom-built luxury-van, etc…and I thank God for all of those! And, I must point out what a joyous-testimony it is that I gave them away again afterwards! However, I also want to teach you something powerful here on the flip-side about ‘timing’ and courage and quickness. These are necessary ‘ingredients’ in seizing right-now opportunities! So, here is a little sad-testimony to help you understand this principle: One time I was given an opportunity to buy a house in America. Someone offered to give me the down-payment; but then never ‘brought’ me the cash. I see now that I should have ‘raided’ it after it was offered, and gotten it into my hands! But that never came because I perhaps wasn’t forceful enough. It was offered for the purpose of buying a house for myself in Dallas, but I didn’t push the button fast-enough! Of course, I was so-o-ooo busy at the time, so I kind of felt i could wait a bit on it. Wrong! Looking back on it now, I see that I actually should have stopped what I was doing for a moment to seize that opportunity! Well, moving right along here…The owner of the house knew I was a man of God. In fact, we did ‘live’ television together on a large Christian television network in London. I thought he would have bent in the price and terms if I flew to where he was quickly, with a briefcase full of cash or a cashiers-cheque! After I had not done that quickly, while he was really ‘hot’ on selling, he later countered with a much more expensive offer ~ that I didn’t like. However, if I had done three things (that I didn’t do quickly then), I believe I would be the blessed-owner of that property today.
1) I should have gone directly, immediately and forcefully to the person that offered me the down-payment as a gift, demanding that they take me to their bank to get the money into my hands right then!  

2) I should have arranged to bring that down-payment money -in person- to the house owner immediately ~ demanding the terms I wanted in purchasing his house right then! 

3) I should have mapped out in my mind, and in prayer, believing God to help me be creative in handling all the expenses of that house on an on-going basis; making it into either an office or rental property; or just keeping it for myself for when I would be in Dallas! *But now, sadly, that opportunity is long-gone. The house has probably been sold; and the down-payment ‘giver’ obviously couldn’t do anything further because of my procrastination. I missed that opportunity. I believe it was lost completely and solely because of my inaction! Often in life, situations or circumstances that keep us from further-progress and conquest are not due to a lack of money or favour; but they are simply due to a lack of decisive-action! We can also lose by an under-developed confidence and faith in God; and perhaps also by a less-than-secure or malnourished self-portrait of our own abilities! We need to always think positively, believing we are the best and that we will have the best! We must continuously feed our faith and build up our lives to greater dimensions and heights, and we also must starve our doubts to death, by feeding our souls and spirits with the Word of God and positive and pro-creative thinking and action! I am praying for more even better opportunities than I’ve had, like this, because I’ll know what to do next time! Move quickly and boldly without hesitation! And, sometimes our ‘busyness’ in so many things may not always be the absolute best use of our time. Always, always give God flexibility, and let Him both give you, and help you seize opportunities and great moments of favour. A great man of God friend encouraged me some years ago with a powerful saying. He said to me: “Son, always follow the path of favour. Always move where the flow of favour is.” Let me encourage both you and myself here by saying this to you, direct from Psalm 24: “The earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof; and the world, and all they that dwell therein!” Also remember Genesis 1:26. God told us that: He has made us in His own image and likeness, and that He wants us to own things, and use them for His beneficial purposes! And, Matthew 6:33 (one of my favourite verses in the Bible), declares: “Seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness, and all these things will be added unto you.” Amen!

The ‘Thief’ That Is Stealing God’s Best From You! Proverbs 6:30-31 promises a seven-fold restoration to the one who has been ‘stolen’ from, if he or she activates this blessing by faith! You can’t possess any promise if you don’t ‘activate’ it! When you open a new online account, or purchase new software, you must first open it and activate it before it works! Claim this promise and activate it with your contractual speech out loud in prayerful decree, and it will go into motion for you! *So be it, in Jesus’ Mighty, Matchless & Majestic Name!

Once You Know Who You Are In God; And You Know, And Are Doing, What He Wants You To Do, You Will Be Unstoppable And Limit-Less! God wants us to own land and property. This truth is seen all through the scriptures. Do a ‘finger-walk’ through the Bible~ book-by-book; and your head will spin over all the verses that promise us God’s desire and ability to give us wealth and real estate!

Faith Is ‘Voice-Activated’!   In the 11th chapter of Mark; in the 22nd-24th verses; God’s Word instructs us to ‘speak’ to all situations if we want to see them change and produce good results!

I AM PRAYING FOR YOU … MY PRECIOUS FRIEND  &  MINISTRY-PARTNER…
I REMAIN … HIS FOR THE MIRACULOUS …  YOURS FOR THE BREAKTHROUGH…
YOUR ‘PROPHET … PASTOR … & INTERCESSOR’ …  DR.THOMAS MANTON

Excellence - 40 Action Keys! By Thomas Manton IV

The kind of excellence God is interested in is that which aims at attaining excellence of God’s character or moral perfection. Your perceptions, friends, expectations, time management and mentality contribute towards how excellent you become in life and God’s laws. Read excerpts of Thomas Manton’s book, Excellence – 40 Action Keys! 

1.Laws of I AM: Confirm Whether the Real Laws Of I AM are Working In Your Life. Honestly Ask Yourself These Five Questions: Am I;
i)     A Giver
ii)    A Tither
iii)   A Seed-Sower
iv)  Obedient to the Vision of God for My Life
v)   An Advancer Of The Kingdom; or Am I Just Living and Existing for Myself?
2. Perception: Look at a Person Not for What you Expect or Hope They Will be BUT For Who They Really Are. You will Avoid Unnecessary Abuse And Pain By Doing This.
3. Friends: Can be Blockers or Blessers, Inhibitors or Releasers; They are Like a Wave -A Prophecy About Your Future. Connect Wisely With Them Because a Mis-Connection or Mis-Fire in Relationships Can Result Into Great Suffering.
4. Expectation: Nobody Can give You What They Don’t have. Some People will Come and Park In Your Life And Help You Do Nothing. Connect Wisely.
5. Reality Check: Don’t be too Optimistic or Pessimistic. Be Real!
6. Time: Be Productive With It. Invest it Wisely For God Will Hold Us Accountable for How We Spent It. Don’t ever Excessively Spend It In Unproductive Things like Entertainment.
7. Mentality: Loose the ‘God-Is-Always –In-Control’ Religious Mentality. God Is Not Always In Control!! Ask Yourself; Where Is He When; “The Thief Comes To Steal, Kill And Destroy”? Although God Has a Will, It Is Not Always Done!
8. Lifestyle: Cultivate a Descent and Powerful Life; The Pre-Requisite Of God’s Visitation.
9. Identity: Know Who You Really Are; A Royal Blood Born Of God Himself. Confirm Your Unique Qualities By Asking Yourself This; What Is It About Me That Differentiates Me from Others? Remember; It is Your Uniqueness, Not Your Similarity That makes You Great.
10. Persistency: Though For A While Success May Be Aversive, Keep Talking Positively Not Negatively About Your Challenges. Use Your Challenges To Explore New Things.
There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight.” Num 13:33
Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy – meditate on these things. Philippians 4: 8-9

The Horrible Effects of Slander & Gossip! By Dr.Thomas Manton


Think about it! Why on earth would people that claim to be Christians be so ignorant, foolish and blind?

 
“Peoples’ ridicules of Godly and anointed men only shows their non-existent ‘love-walk.’ This is a disease that lurks today inside the caverns of self-appointed ‘leaders’ and people where there is no anointing or presence of God, truly, yet they carry on as if they have validity. Well, they don’t have any true credibility, in the Spirit, anyway. This activity is so carnal and even demonic, and truly, it stinks to high-Heaven. And these deceptions that have come to subvert and steal God’s movements from multitudes of people must now be stopped and pulverized, in Jesus’ Name! People’s ‘destructive’ words that came from the ‘accuser of the brethren,’ the devil, only help him to further carry out his evil-mission of stealing, killing and destroying! Oh, that stupid-devil is the god of gossip, slander and ridicule.
When you do any of that, he has gotten hold of you, and your agreement with him will only cause more damage to be done to God’s agendas. And ultimately the losers are multitudes of people; even those that operate in these foolish behaviours, along with their families too. Think about it! Why on earth would people that claim to be Christians be so ignorant, foolish and blind? And, what has happened to God’s power, authority, forgiveness and love in His Church? Or, has HE been ‘gone’ for too long now, for people to even recognize His absence?
Have the circus-showcases of religious-ritual carried out in Churches today replaced His glory and His true and prophetic words and teachings; and His mighty and manifested power and presence? If this has happened, on too wide a scale, then what a tragedy this is, indeed… We NEED God’s true Revivals and Reformations Now… But, those can only start by mighty-manifestations and true-outpourings of God’s presence and power by the Holy Ghost! O God, manifest Yourself more and more in our midst, Lord… You are so-o-ooo ready to do it! But the peoples’ erroneous ways and mannerisms, and their religiosity and disrespect toward Your true servants and movements have grieved You, and driven You away from them…
Change it all now, please Lord …Turn it all around now, so that Your Will can be accomplished, in Jesus’ mighty Name… For, the devil, and his deceived friends, are the losers, we know, but please make their ‘losses’ manifest now before all. Expose the wicked now, Lord, and turn them out! The wicked can no longer carry out their foolish and evil-schemes against You and Yours! Turn those out that pretend to be Yours, but they are not! They are merely using Your Name to do their own business. This must be stopped now! They have deceived many. They have hurt many. But now it is their turn to lose everything, and we now command this to be so, in Jesus’ mighty Name! I’ve always said: “One way we can know of the height and depth of evil that is layered in any society; is by how much they attack and try to discredit the ‘anointed’ and the ‘anointing.’
I know this revelation is eye-opening and piercing, and drives a stake directly into the heart of evil-men and women. And this time now will mark their end! But for us who truly love You, Lord, we are always winners! As You make the wicked fall now, Your righteous-ones will climb and rise, higher and higher! (Psalms 2, 18, 20, 23, 27, 35, 34, 37, 91, 105, 109, 149)  Enforce all of this for us now, Lord, and for Your own Work now, in Jesus Christ’s Matchless, Majestic and Mighty Name, Amen!”  www.ThomasManton.com  (Copyright 2011)

A Prophecy to the ‘Church-at-Large’, through Dr. Thomas Manton IV

The missionaries are out there in their place, and it is so hard and tough for them. Yet, do not only focus on their suffering! You have seen the suffering and the martyrdom of many, and how they have been persecuted. But that is not indicative of everything that is going on out there!

My people are getting saved, healed, baptized and delivered!
My presence is with My people there. My glory is with my people there. I am moving there. People are getting saved, healed, baptized and delivered! They are coming into the family of God. 

The Lord says that I will raise up in years to come two major Christian Networks in America. They will rival the amounts of broadcast quality and quantity to the nations of the world. The Lord says I am now raising up a new breed and a new company of ministers that are going to carry my fire.
I will be with those that have a heart to do battle and those that have a heart to do what I want them to do! I am going to bless, fund, increase and promote them. They are going to be like flaming fires, even before the nations of the world, says the Lord!
They will have a major impact upon nations, peoples, leadership of the church-at large, and upon the Body of Christ to bring the message and the favor of God and the Word of the Lord to this generation!
As I let kings be put up on the throne in the generations past, and then I let them die the way they died, so I will in these days as well, says the Spirit of God. Some will just go off the scene that have grieved Me over and over and never wanted my heart but they wanted to steer Me instead of Me steering them!
The new remnant, the new breed and the new company is going to arise now. And neither men nor demonic forces will be able to stop what I am about to do. For it will surely be that strong, says the sprit of the Lord!
And my mantle will be draped over them, says the Spirit of the Lord. And nobody will be able to stop or touch what I am doing these days, through these ones.
We thank You Lord, that you are raising up transparent vessels that can be like a glass before the light and say, look through me and see Him. Look through me and see Him! Lord, we thank you that your kingdom is being advanced now throughout the World in greater ways and measures than ever before, in Jesus Majestic and Mighty name! *Amen!

This is an excerpt of a two part series – A Prophecy to the ‘Church-at-Large’, through Dr. Thomas Manton IV. Enjoy more teachings and resources, and may God bless you…! *Amen!
