Over a year ago I posted this blog….but in the process of all the blogs and all the days that have gone by…its been covered up. This is something that is very dear to me a friend of mine passed this along to me during a season of my life that felt almost hopeless. That is exactly where I was…hopeless….full of shame….full of anger…full of confusion….and during this process the “Accuser” will come to kill…steal…destroy.

I pray this touches you as much as it has me…..we serve a God that is so faithful….and the moment we begin to understand the value of that relationship….it is the moment we can begin to walk again…heal…and move forward. I encourage you to place your name in the spots that say my name. Be Well.

[The scene is at the Throne of God]

Accusing spirit: I am here to bring accusations against your servant Jason S. King whom you set apart. You called him in eternity, past, before he was even conceived. You knew him then. You destined him to be a great prophet. You anointed his mind to know your mind. You anointed his heart to feel your heartbeat. You invested grace into his life to be able to carry an incredible amount of responsibility in your Kingdom. You touched his lips to be able to speak for your Word, astonishing the hearts of men. You even gave him angels to minister alongside of him. You have spent many of your days walking with him, whispering into his ear, and helping him. You have healed him, and preserved him for one of your purposes. But now, he stumbled. He had a moment when he stumbled. He is now ridiculed by some of your other servants. He is no good. He is a liar. He is fake. He does not need to preach your gospel. Jason is no longer any good. You cannot continue to invest your grace in this man. There are other men who are better than he!

Jesus: Accusing spirit, I want to continue to talk, but you must understand that I knew Jason would stumble when he did. And I did all that I did, and I do all that I do, knowing that he would. What you are saying, I can not listen to. Jason has been washed clean by My own blood. I died for those mistakes He made.

Accusing spirit: Washed or not, he is an embarrassment to your Kingdom, and to ministers!

Jesus: Embarrassment to whom?

Accusing spirit: To the whole world!

Jesus: Jason lives for My pleasure only, and not the pleasure of what the world thinks. This is what I have called Jason to do, is live for Me. He lives for My pleasure only.

Accusing spirit: If he did, he would have never done some of the things he did.

Jesus: You are here to accuse My servant. But I cannot allow you to do so.

Accusing spirit: Why not?

Jesus: Because it’s not about who he is, it’s about Who I am!

Accusing spirit: I don’t want to hear about Who you are! I want to talk about Jason!

Jesus: [starts laughing and clapping out of joy]

Accusing spirit: Why are you clapping?

Jesus: Because new things are being born in My name?

Accusing spirit: What are you talking about?

Jesus: You see, I allowed Jason to go through this in order to birth new things in His life! Out of this pain, new places for My comfort have been born. Out of this mistake, new wisdom for My body has been born. Out of this repentance, repentance has been born in the hearts of so many others. Out of this miserable few times in Jason’s life, new days of appreciation for My faithfulness has been born. Out of his acts of humility, new respect has been born. Out of his cries to Me, new answers have been born out of My heart. He has found new grace through this. He has found new mercy through this. Out of embarrassment, My new ways of covering My child have been born. Out of his weaknesses, new power has been born. I allowed Jason to go through this so that he could birth the entirety of his calling.

Accusing spirit: And what is the entirety of his calling?

Jesus: That he may know Me in the good times, and in the bad times. When no one believed in Him. I did. When no one saw the truth, I did. When no one understood his heart, I did. I wanted him to find that I am His Caretaker.

Accusing spirit: But Jason struggled with certain things.

Jesus: I know that!

Accusing spirit: Big deal, what’s so special about that him finding out you are His Caretaker?

Jesus: Because now is the greatest thing being born out of this.

Accusing spirit: What’s that?

Jesus: A ministry to those who are struggling and can’t find help. Those who My church is not reaching. Now, the ministry has been born for those who are crying out to Me that My church has forgotten. A new ministry of mercy has been born!

Accusing spirit: [speechless]

Jesus: That’s why you have nothing to say here. Because the same MERCY I have for Jason, He will share with many others. And many more who I am passionate about, and love dearly will be able to now walk with Me, regardless of what you say.

Accusing spirit: What do you mean?

Jesus: Through this very situation in My Kingdom, using Jason’s life, I am going to pour My mercy on people’s lives so powerfully through the message of mercy, that you will not be able to condemn them any longer. You will not able to able to hold anything against them any longer. Now, I will show the world the power of My Mercy!
