Host Teachers: Jim and Faith Chosa Introduction to the School Greetings! For months the Holy Spirit stirred in me the need to begin what we are calling “The Red Earth Worship-Warriors School.” He gave this name to the school and we believe it has several very important meanings: 1) The red symbolizes the Blood of Jesus Christ, which according to His Word establishes the New Testament for whosoever calls upon the Name of the Lord. “For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins” (Matt 26:28). 2) The earth represents all of humanity who, like the first man, are earthen vessels. Thus, the red earth symbolizes the relationship of all human beings to Father God through, Adam, whose name means “ruddy or red man” now restored by the Blood of the last Adam, Jesus Christ. Thus, the ministry of this school is to all ethnic tribal people without prejudice, and beyond cultural barriers who can now through the Blood and Work of the Cross of Christ be redeemed, reconciled, and restored to a pre-Fall fellowship with God in, by, and through Jesus Christ. 3) Worship is the highest function of all believers. Not just any kind of worship, but worship in genuine spirit and love grounded truth. The authority and assignments to wage war on the spiritual Earth in the Name of Jesus Christ comes from God, our Father who releases decrees and strategies of war only when we ascend in Spirit to stand before His Throne. To mature in our identity, relationship and destiny as believing warrior sons of God requires training, equipping, and divine impartation from God through His sent equipping ministries according to Eph 4:11/12. Thus, this outreach of Day Chief Ministries, Inc. to you is in the context of a school. We are inviting you to join us in this effort to raise the standard of true spiritual Christianity, increase the level of effective prayer, and overturn the rule of evil throughout the land of America and beyond. Initially, we will begin this school by sending you inspired lessons on-line using the technology of PDF emails or WORD documents to help you discover and mature in who you already are in Christ according to God’s Word. What do you have to do to become a student of this school? Nothing. Just receive the teaching material, and utilize it to add substance to your daily devotions of Bible study and prayer. If you find it spiritually helpful then consider forwarding it to or making a hard print copy for your friends in your prayer network or fellowship. There is no cost for this equipping service nor will we “merchandize” it. However, if the Holy Spirit inspires you to help fund the ministry of Day Chief Ministries, Inc. to personally bring the substance of the ministry to your or someone else’s neighborhood then by all means you can do so. In one of our message series we title “Shifting from Religious Welfare to Kingdom Wealth” we revisit the controversial message of tithing, but do so only to help believers to shift to a more sound economy based on a righteous exchange of Kingdom commodities. We do not utilize the gift of God’s faith to personally profit. However, we do utilize His faith to properly equip and prosper the lives of others in the Spirit, and believe they will obey and do what they hear the Holy Spirit says to them within the depth of their hearts. We recommend all students: 1) Make a print copy of the message, place it in a three-ring folder, and use it with your daily devotions; 2) Since we will highlight only pertinent verses in our commentary, we will put in bold print the context of the passage a verse is taken from. We suggest you make these passages a part of your daily Bible reading as you study the content of the message. 3) We will also ask pertinent questions from time to time and suggest you make the content of these questions a part of your daily seeking God in prayer. 4) We desire your input, but would suggest you keep comments in the context of the material of the school. This includes questions, which we will respond to on a time permitting basis. 5) In several days you can expect the first lesson, however, until then let me give you your first prayer assignment: How many of you receive spam emails? Are you disgusted with the awful stuff advertised on the Internet? Did you know we can do something about it, permanently? No! Not just by deleting it, but behind all this digital cyber stuff there is a person who must touch the key of his/her computer in some fashion in order to send it out. Since they use your email address or send it into your computer a pathway is created for you to reach out in the spirit of prayer and touch the souls of these who are caught up in a powerful digital web of deceit and evil. The Internet has opened up a vast missionary field of ministry for all believers, and this missionary field is not off in some far away third world nation, but it comes right into your home on a daily basis. The Internet literally connects you to the whole world! Your first assignment then is before you delete the next spam email as it pops up on your computer screen take a few minutes to touch the keys, close your eyes, and pray for all the souls connected to the email. This school should not be considered a substitute for your fellowship with a local Body of Christ. Neither is it seeking to undermine the message of Christ through your local fellowship. Our purpose is to impart from who we are in Christ as a First Nation apostolic ministry spiritual substance to supplement what you receive from other equipping sources. In a world filled with adversity we are purposing together with you to build up a strong Kingly anointed ministry of Heavenly minded advocates for love, truth, justice and righteousness in Christ Jesus. Introduction of Lesson Content During a recent equipping session we asked participants this question: In one word define the basic nature of Christianity? Many answers were given, but all failed to understand the question which centered on the word “basic.” Before we give you the answer would you spend a few minutes and see if you can come up with the answer? Let’s do a “Selah” right here. Don’t look ahead until you try to come up with the answer to the question. How many answers did you come up with? Now, let’s go back to the words “basic nature,” and try it again based on the following scriptures: John 4:24; Rom 8:1, 4, 14; Gal 5:16, 18, 25. Because the spiritual realm cannot be manipulated or controlled consistently by us human beings we have for generations made it into and settled for a version of it that we can control. This version is essentially of the soul and more specifically of man’s intellect. However, if the soul is the primary means we use to express true Christianity, we have to say this: this version becomes a counterfeit replacing over time the true spiritual version in context, substance, and genuine Godly power and righteousness. The soul version of Christianity is NO threat to the networks of evil, and has NO power to deliver or transform our territories. Consider for a moment, has the modern soul-based version of Christianity had a permanent and consistent impact on the society around you? Did the first church impact its’ society? Are we not supposed to be further along in the revelation and working authority of God? Is it not time to shift into the real and genuine version of God established Christianity? To begin this shift requires us to fully understand the target we are shifting towards. The target is the answer to our question is: the one word that defines the basic nature of Christianity is “SPIRIT!” If we are serious about becoming agents or ambassadors OF God to deliver and transform our communities and territories in HIS Name, power, and glory then we must become like Him not in word alone, but in spiritual deed and demonstration. The above verses declare God is Spirit, and we are to like Him, spirit, so we can live, walk and be led by His Spirit. Only by the Blood of the Cross of Jesus Christ and the Advocating help of the Holy Spirit can we become who we already are according to God’s very own Word: spiritual sons of God. The content of the lessons of this school will cover pertinent topics to help you advance and shift towards a more consistent spiritual experience and relationship with God, our heavenly Father. Our first three lessons are: 1) Activation of the Heart Series 2) From Religious Welfare to Kingdom Wealth 3) In Your Patience Possess Ye Your Souls Each of these series has many subsections to them. Since we are going to try to limit each lesson to about two to two and one half Word document pages, they will be in multiple lesson formats for each series. We will not be using very much commentary from other sources other than the Bible, Strong’s Concordance, Hebrew and Greek dictionaries plus the Webster’s Dictionary. This school is not a forum for debate, but we do encourage true “Berean-type” dialogue (Acts 17:11). Our purpose is to help you to become a vital spiritual asset for your fellowship and the Body of Christ in your territory to advance the Kingdom of God, and to set up your territory for revival and transformation. Often, we will find it necessary to contrast religion and religious structure with the spiritual structure of the Kingdom of God. This school is not anti-church because God loves His Church and so do we, but we will seek to expose God resisting religious structures as defined in the following passages: Acts 17:18-23; Col 2:8, 3:16-23. In Acts 17:22, Paul uses the word “superstitious” which is translated in the NIV as “religious.” The Greek word will help us to understand the power behind all the world’s religions. It is the word “deisidaimonesteros” which is a compound of a derivative of two other Greek words. The first is “deilos,” which means dread, timid, faithless, or fearful. The other word is “daimon,” which means demon or supernatural spirit of a bad nature or devil. These two words are the root words for “religious” or “superstitious.” Our paraphrase for the word “religious” then is “the fear inspired worship or devotion to deceiving demonic spirits.” Lest we have forgotten, Lucifer was a high ranking spiritual being who now as Satan still retains his inherent religious nature. Thus, his entire network of evil is also religious in nature. Let’s do a “Selah” here and meditate on the implications of this knowledge. In a future lesson series we will expose the religious structure that has been built within man’s soul that powers all of man’s religious efforts to be in his own strength and character like God. Until then, please continue to pray for us, and stay tuned.
