LIBERTY’S CRY

liberty's cry

There she stands out there alone, raising one hand toward heaven and the other grasping heaven’s law. She peers out seeking for those that desire her, and lights the way for those that dare abide. She radiates, compelling the hearts of mankind. Her beauty beckons all, and yet she cries out as those she has rescued abandon her ways. In the shadows behind her are plots taking root to unravel her dreams. She reflects on the heartache and the bloodshed of the lives that defended her, and she cries for her defenders today. Her light is now shining, searching for those that will respond and come to her aid. She can tell she is losing grip as determined erosion tears away at her foundation. Where will she exist if removed from where she is? Can she remain there unwanted? How could this happen where she has worked so hard? Liberty stands there looking, longing, crying out for her defenders.


Liberty’s only option is to turn to God’s people for defense. There is no other place that carries what is needed for her proliferation or expansion. God is the author of liberty, the creator and sustainer of freedom. He is the access to liberty, and His people are the propagators of its ways. It is the call of His people to further the cause of liberty. Yet, we see liberty’s light dimming on many fronts that causes great concern and questioning. Where are those God entrusted with liberty? Where are those that give themselves for a people to thrive in her care? What could be the distraction?

Defending and expanding liberty is our holy cause. It is the removal of spiritual enemies of Christ that distort truths to create bondage that shackles God’s people and nations from releasing further potential that brings Him glory. Meeting needs glorifies God in the hearts of an individual. Liberating nations glorifies God in the earth. Let it not be said that we would prefer one above the other, but let the hearts of free ones rise to liberate nations. The words in Isaiah 61 conveys the responsibility of the poor that have received the good news, the broken that have been healed, the captive that have been freed, and those that have had beauty come from ashes. Those are the ones that become the oaks of righteousness planted for His glory. This glory comes from the rebuilding of ruined cities. This responsibility cannot be left for the ones that have dead spirits, bound souls, and deceived understanding. Like the days when ancient boats approached our shores to ensure England’s hold, evil is gaining ground to clinch greater control. In those days, the Church was not merely meeting the needs of people. They fought on the fronts of prayer, debate, educating, exhorting, policy, and on the battlefields. They worked in an apostolic grace to set a foundation for a new nation. Let not those forefathers wear their voices out shouting from the past to a modern generation, pleading for them to not neglect the foundations of a nation.

As one private company, bank, insurance company after another is swallowed up by an out of control government, and healthcare is nationalized, we find ongoing attacks to silence opposition and discredit citizens to which the government is subject. May there not be those of a younger generation who stay silent! May those that are reclined in retirement rise one last time! Let those distracted by personal ambitions come to attention! This cannot be the fate of a nation established and principled on the law of Almighty God with “liberty for all” as a motto. I plead for us to see beyond the needs of individuals only and to the need of a nation. The broken are in the street and the forsaken cry out unheard when a nation is left to the control of tyranny.

The Church must reach its hand of compassion in its pastoral grace, and it must raise its hand in authority in its apostolic grace to preserve and further unleash liberty. The blood of forsaking a nation for personal security or promotion must not be on our hands. This is the epic challenge of our time, to push back tyranny and rebuild the supports of liberty. With Nehemiah as a standard, let us have a hammer in one hand and a sword in the other. This is the time to build and war for the sake of liberty. Let men and women, young and old, black and white, move as a force to reject and rescind the efforts of bondage and the slavery of a nation. Let not persecution or loss be a deterrent! We have tens of thousands that need aide and assistance, and yet, we have hundred of millions that do not deserve chains. May our cry be for God’s hand to act, and may our plea be for His people to arise. Forbid the day we see the muzzle of tyranny lock our jaw or the bit of government determine our path!

This is the people’s nation, under God, set forth in liberty and justice for all. Needs of individuals cannot overshadow liberty for the populace. If we hand over liberty, we deny the needs of people. For the sake of liberty, we must set our aim on the nation’s need for patriots, not a person’s need for a hand out. We cannot lose sight of this. God has released a fresh apostolic grace in this hour of history to enable a people to sure up the foundations again. We cannot remain centered on the need of individuals alone. Another generation must not be allowed to pass shrugging off the responsibility to apply God’s covenant to all aspects of national life. Our engagement must be determined to lengthen the path of liberty and the retardant to tyranny. Let us not forsake the future by not acting today. And let us not dishonor the past by folding our hands in self preservation. This is the moment of our battle. This is our day on the wall. This is not for someone else in some other time. This is each person’s moment to determine how you will respond to liberty’s cry!

HOW TO BOOK A LIBERTY’S CRY MEETING


Eric Reeder is currently booking Liberty’s Cry meetings across the nation to address a generation’s responsibility for life, liberty and the pursuit — a life of contending, liberty as a work of God, and the pursuit of glorifying God in the earth. If you’re interested in hosting a Liberty’s Cry event to call the generations to their place of shaping the future by defending and extending liberty, please contact Eric at (740) 706-1931 or at emreeder@yahoo.com.

Capture the Next Decade

July 4th, 2009

We have come to an end of an era and stand on the ground floor of the next. It is a time to set an agenda that will see this decade look much different from the one that just ended. There must be strong leadership emerge from God’s Kingdom through all generations to build on and lay further ground work for a massive revolution.

We must not arrive at 2020 wishing we would have done more. This decade will demand all from each of us. It is time to face up to the reality of past apathy and distraction, and recognize we may have to do double duty to get back in a position where we can advance. We are now looking up at what we once walked on.

When our nation’s politicians are looking more like Marx and less like Madison, we recognize we have lost footing. The retreat from the Church and the blind eye of the masses has made way for evil doctrines to now set the course for a nation’s future. Moral collapse has given way to unrighteous leadership while righteousness seems like a fading memory. Proud, puffy-chested proclamations of America not being a Christian nation coming from our top leader reveals we have lost our national compass. Preachers and politicians have played to the masses while untethered to Biblical truth that provides perspective and direction. The blindfold of personal prosperity and blessing has provided a false escape of the reality of evil’s work behind the scenes, and now we must face the music. This is where we find ourselves, and we must awaken to the seriousness of the hour. With this backdrop, we find a generation of reformers that now arise to attack the unfinished task of reforming the Church to reclaim the nation.

I am reminded of my parents and how they taught me to “face up” to my bad choices and “take the medicine.” This decade must be a decade that the Church faces the wrong and/or misguided efforts that left a nation moving rapidly in the wrong direction. This is a time for an army of reformers to arise from all parts of culture to provide the righteous leadership so desperately needed. This is a time that congregations and ministries awaken and train those of God’s Kingdom to be the ones that lead in their area of life to provide and offer Kingdom principles and solutions. We need followers of Christ seeking Him for the place in culture where they can make the most impact and set their focus beyond themselves to the cause of reshaping a nation to be pleasing to God. We must unleash modern day reformers that will articulate the Kingdom agenda in a palatable way so a nation can move in a Godly direction.

This is a decade that must be captured from the start and move leadership from God’s Kingdom out front instead of lagging behind. During the ILE conference last year, I was urged by God’s Spirit to declare that we capture the next decade. I released decrees that announced 2010 to 2020 is a decade for the Kingdom to take forward steps that will begin moving America in a right direction. Let prayers, intercession, declarations, and decrees begin to ascend to the heavens from all over declaring: “We, the Church (God’s ecclesia/governing force), capture this decade for God’s glory and the sake of America.” We need the strategies, articulation, union, and mobilization that is required to see America’s heritage reflected in current times instead of it being removed.

My heart continues to ring with the desire to see us go beyond building a ministry to rebuilding a nation. Hope Taylor can speak on this in greater detail, but once Nehemiah saw the condition of his nation, he left his “ministry” post with the King. He adjusted his efforts, energies, and resources to rebuild a nation. The state of his nation drew him beyond his occupation/ministry and demanded of him all he could do to be part of rebuilding the nation. This must be a decade for everyone to adjust all they can to give themselves for the rebuilding of a nation. We need a young generation taking on college courses and career paths that allows them a platform of influence. We need an older generation getting out of ruts or comfort zones to step forward with wisdom that can be applied. We need everyone finding their current role for this decade. It may be the same role, or it may be different.
I believe if we adjust in this decade we can have “clear vision” in 2020 as to where righteous leadership is to take America. If we don’t capture this decade, I feel in our lifetime we might not see an America that we dream of for our grandkids. Modern day reformers have been set in this time frame of history to be those that give all for the sake of God’s desires for a nation.

The Manhattan Declaration (www.manhattandeclaration.org) recently written and released as a call of Christian conscience for righteous standards in America is a great start, and we need more and more of that happening in this next decade that will leave us in a better place by 2020. The speed of the TEA Party Movement is encouraging of how quick the masses want to respond to leadership that offers principles that are Biblically based.

This is our hour!!! This is the decade to awaken those sleeping, train those awakened, and release those trained. We need it happening on all fronts, in every city, with all generations. We MUST capture this decade!

The Ending and The Begining

June 27th, 2009

By Eric Reeder
Today I place a demand on the generations of this region to arise as one and set the decrees needed in this season of ending and beginning. We need the generations synergistically declaring together what the future is to look like. It’s the Spirit of Elijah, the prophetic that John the Baptizer walked in as well, that made way for Jesus to set in the new order.

I have written some decrees, using the life of John the Baptizer, to offer to the generations to begin speaking together concerning this generation and the ones to come…

Can a trans-generational army of reformers arise in this area and carry these decrees together. There are some you need to write yourself, but here are the ones I submit to you today…

Let there be:
• A generation that would find themselves in uncomfortable places to carry the influence needed to address a past season
• A generation in the deep waters of the river flowing from Your throne
• A generation standing outside the confining, restrictive structures to operate under an open heaven in the vast expanse of Your Kingdom
• An “order of locust and honey” that ingest the bitter realities of the day and be able to speak a palatable word to address it
• A generation submerged in passion and purpose that sets a course to breakthrough into the new day and new order
• A generation desiring less and less of itself and an ongoing increase of desire for the things of God
• A generation leaping in the womb and marked from the beginning to give their lives for the reason of their being
• A generation making the way for Christ to walk into situations and manifest the solutions
• A generation that breaks the silence of God’s voice in a nation

A PATHWAY TO SYNERGY

June 4th, 2009

By Eric Reeder

This is another moment in history that God is calling generations to run as one for His purposes in the earth.  The hearts of “Fathers” are turning toward “Sons” and vice versa.  Every Kingdom work will function more fully as the generations become one to bring forth a mature and lasting strategy.

I submit this Pathway as a strategy to aide local ministries, state efforts, and national works move closer and into generational synergy.  This Pathway is based from the Biblical account of Mordecai and Esther working as one to see the King overturn Hamon’s death decree over the Jews, and see both Mordecai and Esther set the course for the future. (Mordecai represents an older generation, and Esther a younger generation)

The Breaker Company provides a team to help serve Kingdom efforts that desire to have the generations running as one for a more effective and lasting impact.

This proposal will use an example of a statewide leadership council wanting the state to function in generational synergy to convey the concept.

THE PATHWAY:

Breaker Company meets with State Council to communicate and covenant for process
State Council appeals to young leaders they are in relationship with to be part of the cause
Breaker Company meets with the young leaders the Council has recommended to create a company of young leaders for the state.
The young leaders that join in invite a few peers they believe need to be part
State Council meets with company of young leaders to connect and covenant for the cause
State Council and Breaker Company host a mass gathering of young generation to invite them to join the cause (the company of young leaders are positioned as contact points for the young adults that want to be part and receive further relationship)
The point of convergence is set in place at a mass gathering of all generations from the state to officially synergize/marry the generations to move forward together in the cause

Details and needed elements are many and adjustable to each realm this is applied.  This provides a broad strategy to follow and allows room to be flexible.

The major point of emphases is that the Bible presents that Mordecai was the one to appeal Esther.  The critical part here is having “Mordecai Leaders” appealing to “Esther Leaders” so the foundation is laid with the Spirit of Elijah from Malachi 4:6.  Then it was Esther in Esther 4:15-16 that revealed she was to get with her “maidens/generation” to seek God together.  As God brought the strategy forward both Mordecai and Esther walked it out in their role, and then they were the ones to rewrite the decrees to set the course for the future.  These are the main objectives to see function.

As this walks out state to state, national “Mordecai Leaders” can bring a national company of “Esther Leaders” together to officially marry the generations for the nation, and see a nation move in generational synergy as one corporate man for Kingdom purposes.

COULD YOU BE ONE?

God is actively advancing His agenda in history, and is looking for those to partner with Him. In this moment of time, we are convinced God is bringing forth the next phase of history to reveal more of His glory in the earth.

We are in a time of reformation. Those in covenant with Christ are to be launched into all arenas of culture to display and infuse the influence of God’s Kingdom so a nation develops to be pleasing to God. The past century has seen an ongoing decline of God’s Kingdom people giving themselves to lead culture. We have centered on building churches not building nations. Now is the time that changes!

We are building a company of leaders that reform the Church to train those that will influence culture so a nation desires God.

Many feel the burning, hear the sound, are captured to be a solution. The Breaker Company is looking for 10,000 Reformers to lead a nation in all aspects of culture…

… could you be one?
