Revelation: Why God did not choose Reuben who was the first born. Was it because he slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah. Why God did not choose Simeon and Levi, which are the next two in line according to their birthright. Was the birthrights concerning the first born cursed after Esau sold his birthright to his brother Jacob. Maybe it was because Simeon and Levi took it upon themselves to murder in the honor of their sister Dinah. Wickedness was in the heart of all three of these men who…
Revelation: Why God did not choose Reuben who was the first born. Was it because he slept with his father’s concubine Bilhah. Why God did not choose Simeon and Levi, which are the next two in line according to their birthright. Was the birthrights concerning the first born cursed after Esau sold his birthright to his brother Jacob. Maybe it was because Simeon and Levi took it upon themselves to murder in the honor of their sister Dinah. Wickedness was in the heart of all three of these men who was the son’s of Jacob and Leah. Is it because they were children of Leah who Jacob was tricked to marry and because of their trickery God would not honor their seeds born by them, together. But there is Judah who was the seed of Jacob and Leah so this could not be the answer because Judah was chosen by God. Through Judah the promise of Abraham came into effect. Judah’s heart was different and his heart was pure, even though he got himself in some situations such as Tamar, he still was the call of God.<br />
<br />
Judah was different from all his brethren. He was always standing in the gap and he had a honest word for every situation. When he was before his brother (Joseph) who he knew not he was his brother, he quickly stood in the gap for his father concerning Benjamin. Joseph yet trying to make sure his father was still alive so he could protect his brother and maybe place his eyes upon his father once again. Their was a great transition taking place in the mist of these two as Judah spoke. Judah knowing his father would die if the child was not returned to him, quickly repented for his wrong to get Joseph to allow Benjamin to return.<br />
<br />
Joseph probably remembered, if Judah would not have told his brethren to sell him to the Ishmaelite he probably would be dead today. If Judah would have never said anything would Joseph heart be so modest or would he have taken his brother Benjamin with no second thought and sent them back to where they came from.<br />
<br />
Judah had heart and God saw the heart of Judah so God choose Judah to continue the lineage to bring forth the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. Allow your heart to be like the heart of Judah, not because his name means praise due to Leah trying to get the attention of Jacob, but because we want to get the attention of our savior Jesus Christ.<br />
<br />
God please purify our hearts to walk after you and to become mediator as you are our mediator to get to God. Purge us and wash us clean and renew a righteous spirit within us so we can be chosen as a part of your inheritance through the promises of God. We desire to be a part of you a part of the chosen ones.It is not your will that matters but it is God’s will that will stand.tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-12-22:916966:BlogPost:11527112009-12-22T16:45:34.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49
Revelation: As I read concerning the death of Jacob (Israel). Joseph was informed that his father was ill because he was still living in the Egyptians’ house in order to protect his family doing the time of famine.

Revelation: As I read concerning the death of Jacob (Israel). Joseph was informed that his father was ill because he was still living in the Egyptians’ house in order to protect his family doing the time of famine. When Joseph went to see his father he also brought his two sons . Israel ask who are these and Joseph told him these are my sons, and his father said bring them closer so I can bless them. When Joseph brought them to his father instead of his father placing his right hand upon the head of Manasseh, he placed it on the head of Ephraim. This displeased Joseph that his father’s right hand was on the head of Ephraim because he was the youngest. Joseph tried to move his father’s right hand off the head of Ephraim and place it on the head of Manasseh because Manasseh was the oldest but Israel told him no because he knew that the youngest was more blessed than the eldest and he blessed them accordingly.<br />
<br />
Out of all the troubles Joseph went through concerning his brothers you would have though Joseph would have understood. If Joseph would have remembered that once in his life time he had a dream that his brothers would serve him and at that time of his life he was the youngest. How Joseph brothers was so displeased concerning his dream and some of them had put it into their hearts to kill him.<br />
<br />
It is so strange how fast we forget what we went through to get where we are. After all the transitions, trials and tribulations, people not respecting you for who you are, being lied on, misunderstood, not accepted etc… we still treat others as we have been treated. There need to be a rehearsal in the spirit man concerning your greatest test and say I will not cause anyone else to suffer the way I suffered. It is time for a change in leadership and in the church because a lot of us has forgotten where we came from. Judge nothing before its time for no man knows the mind of the Lord, neither is any man his counselor. If he put one man up and another man down it does not matter for he is God and he will bless who he desires to bless. I have mercy and compassion on whosoever I will saith the Lord, so if he has mercy and compassion on whosoever he will who are we to judge. Let the will of the Lord be done in your life, your sister or brethren life, pastor’s life, evangelist’s life, prophetess’s life or whosever’s life is before you.<br />

It is not your will that matters but it is God’s will that will stand.What is Wrong with Going Back on the Potter's Wheel?tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-12-22:916966:BlogPost:11519662009-12-22T00:44:38.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49
Revelation:<br />

Jacob became troubled because he knew he was in the mist of the Canaanites and the Perizzites and if they heard what happened they will make war with him.

When Jacob sons, Simeon and Levi took it upon themselves to kill all the males in the land, because Shechem who was the prince of the land defiled their sister. Jacob became troubled because he knew he was in the mist of the Canaanites and the Perizzites and if they heard what happened they will make war with him. God call unto Jacob and told him to arise and go up to Bethel the place where you went when you fled from your brother, dwell there and make an altar there. He did what God told him to do and after he obeyed God, God spoke to him concerning the promises he already made to him, Isacc and to Abraham and if you want to go back further the promise also came through Noah who is the decedent of Terah, Abram father. He will posses the land which was promised as well as his seed.<br />
<br />
When he first went there and saw the angles ascending and descending and God above it, the name of the place was called Luz but after he had a visitation from God he called the place Bethel, For surely God is her. If Jacob was not willing to go back to where he first spoke to God he would not have received the blessings of God which was promised. It is okay to go back on the Potter's wheel if you want to be made into a better vessel. It is just like a caterpillar before it forms into a butterfly, it must abide in a cocoon for a period of time. It appeared once in one form, then it was hid for a season, and after the season was up it became its true form.“Can I Stand the Pain”tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-07-21:916966:BlogPost:8792552009-07-21T06:32:13.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49

<br />
The words God spoke into my life is “Can I stand the pain”<br />
<br />
Romans 12:1-3<br />
<br />
God is calling for a renewed spirit, a complete spirit within him. A spirit that is acceptable unto God to receive the spirit of God. What is acceptable unto God and who is able to receive of his spirit? Is my life acceptable unto God, am I living the life he desires for me to live? Researching my life I realize we can do many things without thinking which can cause us to error in Christ. God spoke to me just on the other day and he asked me a question “Can I stand the pain.” Can you stand being lied on, talked about, rejected, misused, slandered, or let down without retaliating. The simplest trial maybe our greatest trial, “Can I stand the pain.” God wants to transform us into his righteousness, putting off the old man to put on the new man, for there must be a change in our lives.<br />
<br />
Am I one who God can depend on to take his people to the next dimension in Christ? Can I give what is needed to give to the people at the hour God makes me his mouth piece? Again, “Can I stand the pain.” When I know I am being lied on, will I do likewise or will I take a stand for truth. “Can I stand the pain” When I know I am being talked about, will I talk about them. “Can I stand the pain” When I am rejected, will I reject them who are rejecting me. “Can I stand the pain” When I am being misused, will I misuse someone else. “Can I stand the pain” When I am being slandered by man, will I slander others “Can I stand the pain” When I am let down, will I allow myself to let down others. I must be resurrected by the word of God by the renewing of my mind to live a holy life before my king.<br />
<br />
Remembering who I am is very important. Who do you resemble in your spirit? Do you resemble Christ? Can you say within yourself, “Can I stand the pain.” Through all the things Jesus Christ went through he stayed humble and prayed for strength to pass the test which was before him. We are no longer our own but we are bought with a price, and the one who bought us through his blood now lives on the inside of us to give us power over all. Father you have given me all of these and can’t no-one pluck them out of my hands, for he lost none but the son of perdition. And the question still remains, “Can I stand the pain.”Will You Be Ready?tag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-04-11:916966:BlogPost:6061372009-04-11T17:30:00.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49
Wednesday night (04/08/2009) I had a vision and in the vision it was about 6:00pm, evening time. I was standing on the top of a hill which was hidden by the trees. The trees was tall with short branches and covered with pine needles on the upper area of the tree. I heard a call within my spirit to turn to the east and as I turned to the east, I looked up towards the sky. Darkness began to cover the earth and a tornado began to form in the sky and it hit the ground, coming through the trees. I…
Wednesday night (04/08/2009) I had a vision and in the vision it was about 6:00pm, evening time. I was standing on the top of a hill which was hidden by the trees. The trees was tall with short branches and covered with pine needles on the upper area of the tree. I heard a call within my spirit to turn to the east and as I turned to the east, I looked up towards the sky. Darkness began to cover the earth and a tornado began to form in the sky and it hit the ground, coming through the trees. I could not move but stood upon the hill as it passed by. Then another one came as the first it passed over me without harming me. I remember feeling the strong breeze of the tornado passing over me. The spirit of the Lord led me out into the field continually looking into the east.<br />
<br />
There were people standing in the field unaware of what was about to take place or what is even happening now. As the tornados began to form and touch the earth, I began to guide the people away from the storm. I can feel the way to overcome the storm is to watch and pray, never try to direct the storm but allow it to pass over.<br />
<br />
As I was standing my grandson walked up to me and we began to face each other face to face. The darkness was deeper than before. He began to speak words to me but I did not understand what he was saying; however, I felt what he said. He said, "Grandma, look to the east." Both of us looked to the east and there was a great tornado, bigger than all of the others. It covered the earth and there was no time to run. We continued to stand face to face, staring one another in the eyes, giving power to each other. The storm passed over without harmining a hair on our head because we stood together.<br />
<br />
Saints of God, it is time to make a stand together in the Lord, for the storms that are about to take place in this world we will need each other. People who know the way it is time to teach others the way. Lead the people to Christ because Christ is ready to receive them as his own. The harvest is plenty but the labors are few, gather the harvest before God throw in the sickle.Single and Still Savetag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-01-17:916966:BlogPost:3697322009-01-17T15:30:00.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49
Who would have ever thought in their minds to survive a great test of being single and still save. Living a life completely over to the will of God for his services. One man may think what does this really mean. Does it means to completely surrender to the will of God or does it means I can slip and fall every now and then and say God forgive me? God forbid, What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? ( Romans 6:1) No more excuses for our failures dealing with…
Who would have ever thought in their minds to survive a great test of being single and still save. Living a life completely over to the will of God for his services. One man may think what does this really mean. Does it means to completely surrender to the will of God or does it means I can slip and fall every now and then and say God forgive me? God forbid, What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? ( Romans 6:1) No more excuses for our failures dealing with fornication and adultery. It is time to live a life of holiness travailing in the spirit, interceding for one another so we can survive the great battle of temptation.<br />
<br />
Every man is born with a desire which is a part of nature; however nature itself has to become subject to the power and the will of God. Our bodies are the the living temple of God and we should not defile the temple of God. The old temple which represents the church, the building was rend into two. And behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; (Matthew 27:51) Now that we represent the new temple in the power of his resurrection we should no longer be tied with the yoke of bondage to be obedient the sins of nature. For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God. Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord. Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. Neither yield ye your members as instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness unto God.<br />
<br />
(Romans 6:10-13) And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, And came up out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many. (Matthew 27:52-53) God wants the saints to allow the graves in their lives to be opened, no more sheets, and for them to walk out of their graves into the resurrection power of Jesus Christ. Living your life as a complete sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto God. This is not a measure of Judging but a measure of life to direct into the right path of righteous. No one will be able to enter into the kingdom of God with spots, wrinkles, or blemishes so it is time to get it right. Pray and ask God to make you whole, complete me oh God, create in me a clean heart and renew a righteous spirit within me. Put me back on the Potter's wheel and mold me into a righteous vessel so I can see you God for who you are. I can not get a complete relationship with you until you deliver my soul from this great woe that continues to work against my spiritual walk with you God.<br />
<br />
Present the prayer of Paul, For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin. For that which I do I allow not: but what I hate I do. If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good. Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. (Romans 7:14-17) And learn the power of travailing in the spirit to become one in Christ. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the first fruits of the spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope:for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. (Romans 8"22-25)There is victory after the wait so do not allow Satan to take away your victory by defiling your temple. Keep the faith for one day you will be able to say "I fought a good fight and I have finished my course."Through your Worship, you can be Deliveredtag:abcpreachers.ning.com,2009-01-17:916966:BlogPost:3697082009-01-17T15:28:01.000Zkaren d washingtonhttp://abcpreachers.ning.com/profile/PROPHETESSKARENWASHINGTON49
Even though the angles where created to worship him it does not excuse us from worshiping him. Lucifer has nothing to do with our relationship with God. All through the holy word of God, we can see God searched the earth for worshippers. We can not even enter into his presence without true worship. David even knew it will take the spirit of worship to enter into his presence. 1 Chronicles 29:20 And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed…
Even though the angles where created to worship him it does not excuse us from worshiping him. Lucifer has nothing to do with our relationship with God. All through the holy word of God, we can see God searched the earth for worshippers. We can not even enter into his presence without true worship. David even knew it will take the spirit of worship to enter into his presence. 1 Chronicles 29:20 And David said to all the congregation, Now bless the Lord your God. And all the congregation blessed the Lord God of their fathers, and bowed down their heads, and worshipped the Lord, and the king. Another passage 1 Chronicles 16:29 Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name: bring an offering, and come before him: worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. Without worship we have no place with God. He desires the praises of his people which is a type of worship. Our worship is what connects us with the father. I can not speak for others but I live to worship him, just to be able to get into his presence means so much to me. Everything in heaven worships God and all who serves him on the earth has to worship God if they want to be a part of him. When I was young I remembered when I first read the book of Revelation in my mind I was like why are these beings worshipping God this way. My heart was torn in two because I did not want to completely worship him in this way all my life. Is this all we are going to do is stand around and worship him all day long. But this was my flesh talking because my flesh did not understand the concepts of worship. A true worshipper does not mind worshiping God, it does not matter what others think they just want to be in his presence. A true worshipper also has come to a place of true repentance, no matter what comes their way they will still remain in his presence to maintain a holy being. When I understood this I understood the phrase "be ye holy for I am holy." This is the only way one can worship the father in spirit and in truth.<br />
<br />
Worship service is not what God meant by he wants your worship. Anybody can lead worship service but can they enter into his presence with true worship. Have they come to a place in God where God will accept their worship for he does not accept anything. Read the story of Abel and Cain, one gave the right offering and one gave the wrong offering. One was accepted and the other one was not accepted. This is the same as worship, except it is done in the spirit of truth it will not be accepted. After we repent, baptize, and have received the gift of the holy-ghost, our spirit man has change from darkness to light and it knows that God desires our worship. Once our sins are forgiven then we can come before him in worship. 1 Samuel 15:25 Now therefore, I pray thee, pardon my sin, and turn again with me, that I may worship the Lord. It should be a great desire to worship him. Now that the soul has be revived it desires for his presence and the only way you will find it is in prayer, praise AND true worship. Even Saul knew it would take more than just repentance, 1 Samuel 15:30 Then he said, I have sinned: yet honor me now, I pray thee, before the elders of my people, and before Israel, and turn again with me, that I may worship the LORD thy God. 15:31 So Samuel turned again after Saul; and Saul worshipped the LORD. Worship is essential for your salvation and connection with God. Abraham knew it was worship that will get the attention from God. Genesis 22:5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; and I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you. His answer from lies within his worship. Hebrews 10:2 For then would they not have ceased to be offered? because that the worshippers once purged should have had no more conscience of sins. Our deliverance is in our worship. Mark 5:6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, Even the leper who was considered unclean knew, Matthew 8:2 And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.<br />
<br />
The concepts of worship is lost for some people because they began to worship the works of their hands instead of the works of God. Isaiah 2:8 Their land also is full of idols; they worship the work of their own hands, that which their own fingers have made: But it has already been written, Luke 4:8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. The three wise men, Matthew 2:2 Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. Continue to seek him in the spirit of worship and you will never go wrong. Not another man worship or another man praise but in the spirit of truth. Seek ye the Lord while he may be found and call on him while he is near. It is in our worship where we will find God.What is your Purpose? Are you called? Are you Chosen?

Isaiah 61:1 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; 2 To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that morn; 3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise…

<br />
John 4 I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work. 5 As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world. 6 When he had thus spoken, clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, 7 And said unto him, Go wash in the pool of Si-lo-am, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and he came seeing.<br />
<br />
God has called the people of God for a time such as this to preach in season and out of season in order to bring the people back to God. The people are crying and moaning for their God to hear their cry due to emotional stress, depression, poverty, loneliness, bitterness, anger, sickness etc... and the people of God should stand as Samuel and say, "Speak Lord for your servant listener" or shall speak as Isaiah "Send me Lord and I will go." Are shall I be as Ezekiel and say "“Who Hath Believed Our Report?," or Jeremiah "It is just like fire shut up in my bones," or the three Hebrew boys "If my God does not deliver it does not mean that he can." People of God, stand boldly before the face of my father at the time of need to bring forth deliverance to his people. When God call, you are equipped for battle, standing on his word with the whole armor of God, so you can stand against the wiles of the devil.<br />
<br />
Rest assure for Jesus is mines and there is none before him and there will never be another like him. Being sent by God is more than having a name for your self or just being well known. It is the measure of faith that bring forth the power of deliverance for his people. The question is "Are you sent by God, did you go and wash in the pool of Si-lo-am so you may see the mysteries of God to behold his beauty, to know him for who he is?" It is time to fall off your beast, off of your high place and go to the city of Damascus, on your knees, so you can meet the Ananias in your life so you may receive your sight. People of God, let us go to the pool of So-lo-am and wash the blindness off our eyes and let us go the the city of Damascus and find the Ananias who suppose to give us the direction the go forth in God, so the scales can fall from our eyes. People of God, let us go so we can be made whole as God said to Ezekiel prophesy to the dry bones so they may live, dry bones I command you to live.<br />
<br />
Dry bones of depression, Dry bones of confusion, Dry bones of lies, Dry bones of death, Dry bones o laziness, Dry bones of falsehood, Dry bones of being high minded, Dry bones of nobody can tell me nothing for I know it all, Dry bones of limitation, Dry bones of you are not good enough, Dry bones of you will never make it, Dry bones of Lust, Dry bones of perverseness, Dry bones of homosexuality and lesbianism, Dry bones oh Dry bones I command you in the name of Jesus "LIVE." For I have been sent by God and I will no longer be tossed to and fro with every wind of doctrine.

<br />
As I began to meditate on God, God began to minister into my spirit concerning being holy in every situation. Holy in every walk of life, living as a complete sacrifice unto him. Transforming ourselves through the washing of the blood of the lamb becoming more and more like him. Separating ourselves from idols walking completely in the resurrection of Jesus Christ, laying aside every weight and sin that is so easily to beset us and work out our salvation with patience. The soul is so valuable and the soul lives within our fleshly tabernacle that needs to die continuously so God can live within us in order to be glorified through us. God is searching out the land in search for a vessel who is willing to obey him. Someone who will give up this world and the fashions of idols that lives within it. Sanctify your vessels and allow God to clean up your heart so when you speak, complete deliverance can come to the people of God. It is time to remove the filthy garments out of your life so God can live within. God has already spoken, I will not live in an unclean place. So, be holy even as he is holy and let God arise in your body. If there are filthy garments in your life it is time now to seek God for deliverance so he can wash you clean through his blood. The voice of God is speaking and he is calling forth righteousness in your life and I must be first partakers because I am a woman of God. God is calling for his Joshua, telling those that stood by to take off the filthy garments and place upon him a garment of righteousness. Change must come and change can not come if the desire for God does not turn into a hunger and a thirst for righteousness. And after the change the word of God will transform your life. Speak Lord for thy servant listens, ready for a complete change to be able to walk boldly in your word before men. Keep everything in your life holy, the way you walk, the way you talk and let the beginning and the end of your conversation be holy, the things you do, keep it holy and you will not error in your walk with God. I leave this passage with you and as you read it ask God to allow the filthy garments to be release from your life so you can walk in righteous.<br />
<br />
3:1 And he shewed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, and Satan standing at his right hand to resist him.<br />
<br />
3:2 And the LORD said unto Satan, The LORD rebuke thee, O Satan; even the LORD that hath chosen Jerusalem rebuke thee: is not this a brand plucked out of the fire?<br />
<br />
3:3 Now Joshua was clothed with filthy garments, and stood before the angel.<br />
<br />
3:4 And he answered and spake unto those that stood before him, saying, Take away the filthy garments from him. And unto him he said, Behold, I have caused thine iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of raiment.<br />
<br />
3:5 And I said, Let them set a fair mitre upon his head. So they set a fair mitre upon his head, and clothed him with garments. And the angel of the LORD stood by.<br />
<br />
3:6 And the angel of the LORD protested unto Joshua, saying,<br />
<br />
3:7 Thus saith the LORD of hosts; If thou wilt walk in my ways, and if thou wilt keep my charge, then thou shalt also judge my house, and shalt also keep my courts, and I will give thee places to walk among these that stand by.
