Spiritual Battles In The Heavenlies!

This was 1st posted at www.dpgatten.com

So many times I am asked to be praying for something &/or to be put on my prayer list. First of all I quit having a prayer list, as I always ran out of paper. I do know there are many who have and keep up 'Prayer Journals' and are Blessed accordingly.

I will pray right then and usually ask that when there is further need I will be quicken to pray at that time and sometimes I am and sometimes I am not.

Nevertheless there is always prayers going on and is Another reason when asked, I say we are in prayer, (Before The Throne & 2 or more together in HIS Name!) and we will be looking for the "Good Report!" in JESUS' Name!

I do not know why I am telling you this. [At the time I 1st wrote this I was in the Dark though you will be able to see the light come in steps and/or stages.]

Earlier today (around 9 AM onMonday the 26th of Jan. 2009) I become aware of gargantuan activity in the spiritual realm and around 3 PM, I told Marilyn that there is a battle going on & it will soon become obvious to those sensitive, as it breaks out & forth in the here & now. Those who are not plugged in will only be able to see havoc & turmoil and thus not able to be of service.

I am always aware that a prophet never misses. One miss and you are out. In other words; Not a Prophet Of God! ... A False Prophet.

I was also checked earlier [Around 10 AM], not to use the word 'Ministry' during a phone conversation with a brother that is being taken in an explosive expansion, as a servant of the most high GOD and was prompted to use 'Service' instead, not knowing then what it meant at the time.

During the different activities during the day I was aware of the military and the reference of being in the service and quicken to this:

Jesus told us in Matt. 10:34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace on earth. I did not come to bring peace but a sword."

For what it is worth:


Tell me it is presumption; Amos 3:7

Continuing as a servant serving The Most High GOD!

As usual , looking 4 'The Good Report!

I: Moving On To Energy Medicine!

Starting a New Year and maybe a new direction, allow me to publish my "Thoughts", on 'ENERGY MEDICINE'.

I will always Be open and sensitive to direction, by The HOLY SPIRIT, Nevertheless, knowing in my 'Heart of Hearts' for decades and now boldly to proclaim, that the Creative Juices Flowing is a Gift we should never stifle, so 'Here We Go!', knowing I will have "The Philippian Stop Sign" to keep me from going astray. (Yes I know that was a 'Run-on Sentence'!)

Studying 'Alternative Medicine' will always take you into areas that 'Mainstream &/or Traditional Church' will point their crossed index fingers at you and run without allowing God to speak thru it. (Remember Balaam's Ass?) So be forewarned that you may get to be feeling uncomfortable following along this process.

"SO! ... ... ... What about 'Energy Medicine'?" You Sez.
"I am you asked.", I sez.

Energy Balance influences all empirical results, even to what appears, as nothing happening. Regardless of it being toward healing, per se, or any area in one's life.
Believing is also a main factor, though I have found that the healings very seldom manifest in similar manners. Having experienced others being healed thru me, as the vehicle (& others) at times there was a knowing of the impartation before &/or during the contact &/or prayer, always with the evidence at hand to be the 'Proof of the Pudding'.

Healings can be Instantaneous and also thru herbs &/or the hands of a practitioner of one of 'Alternative Medicines', To God Be The Glory! (Whether you believe it to be HIM or not!) I will have more to say about this as we go along.

At this time, my wife & I are experiencing results thru Energy Medicine. I may address the specifics in future posts. Nevertheless, we are experiencing empirical relief in many areas and are expecting more.


We would have never ventured down this path had Allopathy had accomplished anything other than covering up symptoms and in turn inducing worse side effects than the original malady. Just listen to the commercials on TV with disclaimers that just as well say, “If you die using our drug, you have been warned!”

Loved Of The LORD, or any other skeptic, having a problem so far, bring me to task and leave a comment! Be Blessed at what HE is having you do, 1 aka Dr. DP

Back To Things At Hand! ~ Happy New Years!

2009 = Mighty Fine!

'Out The Gate', allow me 2 apologize for my Laxity in keeping current!

Now that done, (Honestly!) want 2 wish You, (Especially You Who Visit And Pray For This Won {1} Preacher) A Very Prosperous, Plentiful and Pleasant New Years!

I believe (To Be Knowing!) that 2009 Will Be Mighty Fine! Just being able to think this to begin with and of course to be able to say this out loud to everyone in my path, makes it even more so. Another Factor is Luke 11:34-36. See Filters.

Since the last post, I have been many different places on line and in 'The Here & Now' and have visited places that I would not have ventured in the near past. No not any 'Houses Of Ill Repute', as yet, though those of the 'First Group' might look upon them the same way. IYKWIM? In fact I have not ruled out those 'HOIR' altogether and would be obedient thus Directed! Another Sermon for another day!

The important thing to elaborate on, is that I see people searching for enlightenment for &/or to their Personal Spiritual Journey.

To offer help in these cases from my established perspective, would initially have them run for cover. So I am on my own ... trek ... quest ... to approach these souls in (At least from my perspective.) the dilemma they have at hand, in order to have the peace and assurance to rest in the promised revelation and peace I have come to know and be assured of.

All of this of course, is to remain true to my 'Given Theme': To be Making A Difference And Helping Other People Reach Their Goals!

Several have reported that they embrace 'The JESUS or Christ Concept', yet only along the several other paths they are traveling on. Many at the same time expressed that 'All Roads' lead to God, not realizing that only one to The Bema Seat and the rest to 'The Great White Throne Of Judgment'.

Now before I move on to the next 'Thought', as you swing by and partake, the 'Creative Juices' you have been given, may hone in on an angle &/or even an empirical experience that may help me on my way. Jump in and get your feet wet, as the water is fine and leave a comment.

I have never been fond of the money changers etc in the Temple that are legitimatized by calling them "The Book Store, The Coffee/Snack Bar, Etc.", though have had to give them more room then I have in the past.

Nor have I come right out and asked God for money, to publish the portion HE has given to me. With that let me invite you to come into my 'Coffee shop / Book store' and peruse some of the other things I enjoy doing.

Again, as I post these links, feel free to comment on your Thoughts about me doing this. Here are some to start with:

~ Food for Thought! ~ ‘Less Of Me’

Not sure where this is going to go, tho I need to get it started, while HIS ‘Creative Juices’ are flowing. The last post (081022) was from the hip as I was writing, although chewing on the main ‘Topic’ for days and that came from another article I had been reading on Skepticism. It was as it was speaking directly to me.

Should you choose to go back and peruse it again, it was directly saying, (To me anyhow.) “That there is need to give the other person room.” When a person is ignored and wrote off, there is little hope in future communication, whether fellowship &/or ministry.

Two issues that I deal with, (Not close to perfect yet;-) the first one is irritation when interrupted. I lived with my Dad’s Baby sister while my Mother was in the hospital for over a year when I was eleven. Many things I was taught, while I was there.

Money was left out over time, the amount was increased at regular intervals, and I was told in my adult years later that my trust was proved. It lost it steam when I explained that even at 11, I was smart enough to know that should it come up missing that I was the only one who could have taken it.


That one above was a freebie as this is the one that pertains to my thought. She also taught me “We so often condemn others for our own worst faults.” Do you remember what I was talking about above with out going back up there to check? I just remembered a third thing. I had better finished this before my imperfections turn into a tome.

The irritability over being interrupted, is because I do it to others myself. To over come this I have tried not showing it when I am interrupted and it is getting better, as now I try not to do it myself. Of course, this leaves a monologue for the other person should they like to talk as much as I do.

Number two is I will justify my remarks &/or actions when they come under scrutiny. Even after walking with The Lord for over 3 decades, my tendency is to need to be right! There is no way to break this habit, yet to again resort to silence and let the other person have their victory. SEE! Even using that last word shows the pain that is involved.

Allow me to finish up using the third one I remembered above. Second place after being interrupted is not being ‘Paid Attention To’. ( I do not know if you caught that above or not.) Multi-taskers are not welcome! Just kiddin. It is hard, ‘not to go back’ and ask questions that have no value other than, seeing whether the person was paying attention or not.

My favorite is talking to a cultist and when it is my turn they are Busy Looking up the next reference. They will now go to when I finish my turn. As soon as I see that they have found their spot and has it marked with finger between the pages, when their eyes meet mine, I ask them, “ What is your take on that?” They shake their head and admit they missed the point and I start all over again, this time they are paying attention, because they know that there is something for them to answer.

As Always! Picking up your cross and seeing how much more there is to dying of self. Less of me my Lord that there will be more of YOU! How about you? I laid out some of my dirty laundry. Do you have any of yours that that needs at least some airing? Your Turn! In the meantime Be Blessed, 1 aka DP

Food for Thought! ~Skepticism~ ‘The Good The Bad And the Responsible’

Food for Thought! ~Skepticism~

Have you ever stopped long enough, to evaluate all … well maybe not all, as that would take to long, the negative, … well what each one of us would catalog as negative, … things that happen around us, ‘Day In & Day Out’? I bet you were wondering if I was EVER gonna get that thought out!

Allow me to hone in on “Skepticism” today and go ahead and run with it, so when I bring this thought to it’s culmination, you will already be there with whether you agree or not.

New Innovations normally come up against skepticism inasmuch as, they contravene personal and/or social credence. Established beliefs are so compelling and forceful, that wars are and will be fought over them. They become the foundational base for philosophies, psychology, political systems and even medical concepts to develop. Some own their own Memorials. Sometimes they are only imaginary tales and are not even true. We just hope and think that they are.

Nevertheless, for a moment, let us look at ‘The Good’ that is derived from some of it! Skepticism to new innovations, are usually resistance to change. Including, "it's too good to be true" attitude... or "That sounds too Spooky" or anything that resembles that... This is healthy and normally to be expected. New concepts should always be scrutinized rigorously. It will make them stronger in the over all, should they prevail.

When one possesses a major development that is founded on the most convincing of known axioms, being different to traditional understandings will always and expectantly be met with skepticism.

Here are a few quotes to make this point:

"There is no likelihood man can ever tap the power
of the atom." Robert Milikan, Nobel Laureate in
Physics, 1923

"Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible."
Lord Kelvin, President Royal Society

"Sensible and responsible women do not want to
vote." Grover Cleveland, 1905

"Who the heck wants to hear actors talk?" Harry M.
Warner, Warner Brothers Pictures, 1927

"Everything that can be invented has been invented."
Charles H. Duell, Director of U.S. Patent Office, 1899

Now ‘The Bad’!
We may as well start here with my standard Response:
"You can always tell a skeptic, BUT you cannot tell them much!" There are many more and no doubt you may come up with a few yourself. Let that suffice, as I would like to get on to the main reason that I have been giving this so much thought.

As I am being blessed, with being ‘more’ knowledgeable, it in itself makes me ‘more’ aware to be ‘more’ “Responsible”. To many times in the past, I have just passed on by an opportunity to make a difference, because my intolerance to skepticism. Almost a case of ‘The Pot Calling The Kettle Black’!

Having studied ‘Skepticism’ to this degree allows me to back up an not Write the Skeptic Off and leave another opportunity to minister to them at another time, with many of the times with the very innovation that they would not have no part of before.

Now IT IS your turn! Tell me where you believe that I am wrong … or maybe you were already there, waiting on me to get my head screwed on right. Talk to me and continue to be Blessed, 1 aka DP

~ Food for Thought! ~ Growth Is Valuable! ~

We have talked about ‘Change’ and ‘Growth’ and how do they line up with what Scripture says.
I started out with change using these two proverbial expressions:
“Everything Changes, except Change Itself!” And
When ‘It Is All Said and Done’, GOD IS THE EXCEPTION!

They both sound like oxymorons and sometimes we have to cross over into that realm to receive Understanding. HE says in Mal. 3:6a "For I [am] the LORD, I do not CHANGE;

Eph 4:15 but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head--Christ--
Eph 4:16 from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes GROWTH of the body for the edifying of itself in love.

Where am I going with this, you might say? I am getting into the habit to just sit down and to start typing and see the wisdom come forth.

Now you tell me!
GOD Bless! 1 aka DP

~ Food for Thought! ~ Growth Is Good! ~

There is a need to start this off with: God Is Good! Ps. 73:1 From here we can go anywhere.
You might have had a need to ask me why the last post was in Red? I am glad you asked and because it caught your eye, it served its purpose1

The main reason is to convey how I hurt … (And not like BC = “I feel your Pain!) to see so many not partaking in HIS Kingdom out of ignorance and/or stubbornness. The funny thing about it is that even as I am writing about this I could be right in the middle of both of them.

Sometimes they are so subtle that they are invisible and evasive. As I write this, I am open to have a slap up the side of my head, so that I can partake of all this wisdom myself.

The reason for this post is for my growth and you could be the instrument of HIS choice should you step out of your comfortable prison and let the swing begin, by contacting me. Go ahead so I can say: “Thanks … I Needed That!”

Nevertheless, have a blessed day and reap what HE has for you today!
