Pioneers

By: Ken Malone

Our History books are filled with stories of the men and women who are now known to have been Pioneers.  Pioneers are trailblazers, people who prepare the way of the Lord for a generation or for their city, state, and nation.  These folks are not Settlers though Settlers are needed in order to build Kingdom life on the earth.  As History has revealed Pioneers from times past, today is no different. Pioneers are still among us to this day.  They are now known as Forerunners and Reformers who are more clearly defined as people who have been called by God to prepare the way of the Lord in territories where little to no Kingdom work has been done.  Pioneers are much needed today so that the Ekklesia can move into her destiny.  A Pioneer challenges the status quo and calls for awakening and reformation.  This awakening not only impacts the church but has a massive influence on all of society.  Likewise, a Pioneer calls for reformation into the seven mountains of society thereby reaching into some of the darkest places on earth.

It is easy for the church to misunderstand the Pioneer since they are vastly different from the Settler.  Pioneer men and women have a vision that reaches beyond average.  They do not accept “the norm” which has no power to transform a life or take a city for God.  When you read the hall of fame as written in Hebrews 11 you will find men and women who had accepted the challenge in their day and, through the power of Holy Spirit, have brought about great change in the earth.  Most of these folks did not receive the approval of men but have received the approval of God through their faith.  There is a promise waiting for us of a great outpouring of His Spirit as spoken of by Joel, Peter, and other former Forerunners.  This requires today’s Pioneer to trumpet their message as well.  Yes, the 21^st century Pioneers MUST step forward so that the promise God made to former Pioneers can be fulfilled.  

Here is a personal story that may be of help to paint this picture.  In the area where I live a bridge was built that would span across some railroad tracks.  I don’t know of anyone who likes to drive through an area where there is road construction and this project was no different.  There were many inconveniences while it was underway.  Roads were rerouted, traffic was backed up and it seemed like the bridge took forever to complete.  However, now that it’s finished the road and bridge are streamlined and efficient.  I am now so thankful for those who helped to “prepare the way” for this bridge. Pioneers are much like this.  They will tear things up in order to re-build something nice.  Some don’t understand and will ask, “Why are we doing this?  I like the old way, leave it alone.”  But when the finished work manifests, you will hear sounds of praise for the work that was done.

We are among many Pioneers who are on the earth today.  Those who, like John the Baptist, prepare the way of the Lord.  Their stories cannot be written because history is yet to do that.  Examples of modern-day Pioneers who are now in the great cloud of witnesses are Kathryn Kuhlman, Oral Roberts, Gordon Lindsey, Derek Prince, David Wilkerson, George Beverly Shea, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan, Martin Luther King Jr., Billy Graham…and as well many others.  In Acts 17:6 we also read of some Pioneers who turned the world upside down.  David cried out, “Is there not a cause?” in first Samuel 17:29.

And now I will share some traits that can help us to better understand these Pioneers.  We must understand that above all else, true Pioneers have tremendous love and passion for God and His Kingdom.  They will venture into unknown and unclaimed territory blazing a trail by being the first to enter, open and prepare the way of the Lord.  

Years ago, I had a well-meaning Pastor rebuke me for embracing the prophetic.  He said, “Ken, you need to stay away from the prophetic, it’s really hurting people.”  At the time he said this, the prophetic and Prophets were blazing a trail.  It was, and still is, a misunderstood gift.  But because the prophets have opened this much-needed gift, it is now being embraced by the body of Christ. 

The same can be said of the Pioneer as they too are visionaries.Their keen spiritual eyesight enables them to see where we will need to go and where we should be.  The Joshua generation, who went in to possess Canaan, did not see things like the former generation.  They saw things the way God viewed them.  They saw themselves with the ability to conquer and possess.

Pioneers are also connected to the roots of the great commission as written in Matthew 28 and Mark 16.  They are aligned with the Holy Spirit’s work as found in Acts 2 and the miracles and salvations displayed in Acts 3.  Pioneers are connected to the Roots of Covenant, the Roots of History, and the Roots of Promise.  For there is hope for a tree when it is cut down, that it will sprout again, and its shoots will not fail.  Though its roots grow old in the ground, and its stump dies in the dry soil, at the scent of water it will flourish and bring forth sprigs like a plant.  Job 14:7-9 

Being apostolic in nature Pioneer’s function as “sent ones.”  They are “ambassadors” and “generals” who have a sense of being sent by God.  They may be from America but are also sent to America.  They may be born in a certain city but also have a sense of being sent to that city.  Sent by the King of the Kingdom of God to expand that Kingdom into all the earth.  Don’t misunderstand the gift of the apostle.  They are men and women who possess a mindset of a military general and a spiritual warrior.  Much like Caleb, they are called to take mountains, cities, and regions for the Kingdom of God.

To “leave a mark” is defined as “leaving a trace or impression.”  Pioneers leave an indelible mark on society.  People will talk about that mark, whether good or bad, depending on how the person is viewed and what they have done.  Either way, Pioneers create a type of “footprint” that others can follow.

The challenge of adversity does not deter those with the Pioneer spirit, in fact, they thrive on it.  Without this trait, they would drop out of a spiritual battle at the hint of trouble.  David had several such traits that he was noted for.  One, he was a Lover of God. He loved the Presence of the Lord and would stay in the heavenly courts with God for days.  Next, he loved to pray.  Prayer marked David’s lifestyle.  When you read the Psalms, he wrote you will find that many of them are prayers to the Lord. The enemy was as food for him and he thrived on it.  Show me someone who loves spiritual warfare, and I will show you someone like David.

God’s “change agents” have an attitude to press the envelope and change things no matter what.  As God’s “change agents”, Pioneers will often challenge the status quo.  The story of Elijah is one example of this.  When Elijah appears on the scene with Ahab, it is the first time we hear of him.  He set the tone and the pace by saying “There will be no rain except by my word.”   

It is because of these such traits that Pioneers can be challenging to work with.  They will knock over a golden calf or two, they will blaze a trail against the religious spirit, they will challenge the staleness of the church, they will go against the compromise within the church, civil government or anywhere else it exists and they will even refuse to be politically correct in the church, society or government.  

As we continue to encourage these men and women in their God-given attributes they can and will usher in the presence of the Lord, alter the course of a nation and bring a great awakening to America.  If you like adventure-connect to a PIONEER.

Scripture

Ezekiel 22:30 reads in the NASB, “I searched for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand in the gap before Me for the land, so that I would not destroy it…”

Prayers

Father, I thank you that America was birthed from the hearts of Pioneers.  George Washington, Paul Revere, Thomas Jefferson, and many others have blazed a trail to make this nation what it is today.

I decree today that the Pioneer spirit will arise in the body of Christ, blazing a trail and preparing the way of the Lord. Raise up the modern-day Deborahs, Baraks,  Davids, Pauls, and the like.

Father, we welcome the Pioneers, the Intercessors, Apostles, Prophets to pioneer in our nation and the nations of the earth.  Send us men and women who are as flames of Holy fire. 

Holy Spirit, raise me up as one of Your Pioneers.  Give me a heart like David.

Day 21—Prayer Siege Against the China Virus

October 21, 2021

As we enter our final day, I’m encouraged by the prayers that you have made for those battling the china virus and I’m encouraged that we have made progress to victory.

God did not start this hideous virus, BUT GOD has a plan.  Our Father always has a plan of redemption and restoration through His son, Jesus Christ.

The Fight

I think the most important thing I’ve seen, for someone battling the virus is having someone who can fight for you.  Someone who can prophesy, decree, pray for days without wavering.  You need the warriors of prayer, in your corner.

Give Thanks

Two years ago, I had one of the generals of the faith, Gerald Derstine, speak at our church. Gerald was 90 when he was with us. He said to me in private, “Ken, I feel better now than I did 10 years ago.”  I said, “What? Tell me about it.”  Gerald said, “Ten years ago I had arthritis in my back so bad, it hurt to walk. I took this to the Lord in prayer.” Gerald said, “Lord why aren’t you healing me?” Our Lord said, “Because you’re not giving thanks. I said in my word, in everything give thanks.” Gerald said, “In everything-not for everything.” Gerald told his wife Beulah, “If you hear me praising and thanking the Lord, when it hurts to walk or at any other time, I’m just being obedient to His word.”  Derstine then said, “When I gave thanks to our Lord, in two days, I walked out of the painful arthritis.”  The Lord healed him by His obedience to the word.

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NASB, ¹⁶ Rejoice always; ¹⁷ pray without ceasing; ¹⁸ in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. 

The pattern of redemption in this verse of scripture is powerful and will change lives.  Notice the weapons He has given us.

• Rejoice—Worship unlocks things and opens a pathway between heaven and earth.  When you enter into throne-room worship, heaven invades.
• Pray—Remember the story of the widow, who continually came to the judge who did not regard God.  Because of her persistence, she was granted her request.

• Luke 18:1-8 TPT, “One day Jesus taught the apostles to keep praying and never stop or lose hope. He shared with them this illustration: ² “In a certain town there was a judge, a thick-skinned and godless man who had no fear of others’ opinions. ³ And in the same town there was a poor widow who kept pleading with the judge, ‘Grant me justice and protect me from my oppressor!’ ^4–5 “He ignored her pleas for quite some time, but she kept asking. Eventually he said to himself, ‘This widow keeps annoying me, demanding her rights, and I’m tired of listening to her. Even though I’m not a religious man, and I don’t care about the opinions of others, I’ll get her off my back by answering her claims for justice and I’ll rule in her favor. Then she’ll leave me alone.” ⁶ Jesus continued, “Did you hear what the godless judge said—that he would answer her persistent request? ⁷ Don’t you know that God, the true judge, will grant justice to all his chosen ones who cry out to him night and day? He will pour out his Spirit upon them. He will not delay to answer you and give you what you ask for. ⁸ God will give swift justice to those who don’t give up. So be ever praying, ever expecting, in the same way as the widow. Even so, when the Son of Man comes back, will he find this kind of undying faith on earth?”

• Don’t stop Praying

• Thanks—Psalm 100:4 NASB, Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

Let’s Pray!

Father, today we rejoice in You, our Savior.  Thank You for the gracious gift of eternal life, healing and deliverance, through Your son, Jesus Christ.  Father, we thank you for delivering every person out of the grip of the china virus.  I bring (put in their name,) before You.  I decree, virus, leave (put in their name,) in Jesus name.  I proclaim salvation, healing, wholeness and restoration over them in Jesus name.  I break the stronghold of darkness and hope deferred out of their life.  Lord, touch them in Jesus name. Today, I loose heaven’s resources over every sick person.  Father, I praise You for healing and deliverance, in Jesus name.

Day 20-Prayer Siege Against the China Virus

October 20, 2021

Prophetic Word

To the Undefeated,

 You’ve stood your ground, through faith in Me and My word. You’ve seen My delivering hand.  You’ve determined that this china virus, will not rule over you, but instead you’ve taken dominion according to my word. As a result, you’ve seen my covenant enforced. 

I sent My word to you in this season and it has healed you.  I sent My comforter and He has been in you and beside you. Continue to walk the faith walk.  Pray, seek my face, turn; I am bringing healing to your land. 

Watchmen, continue to take your stand and say what I am saying and do what I’m doing. Decree that the RESTORER is here.

Don’t allow the thief access to your home.  Take the key of Isaiah and close the door of the sickness, disease and death. Close the door on unforgiveness, offense and bitterness. Open your home to my son, the King of Glory.  He is mighty in battle and will save. I’m standing at your door; do you hear the knocking.  Open up and I will come in and have fellowship.

Today is your day of VICTORY-DECREE IT!

Sincerely Yours,

Yahweh

The enemy sent the china virus, to cause the church to get into a place of submission rather than advancement.  It was sent to divide the church, and to conquer the church.  It has been sent to steal our authority, and drive us back into a place of complacency, anxiety, and fear.  I know first-hand, when I contracted the virus, it was a battle to keep the anxiety and fear away and to stand ground and not give in to its schemes. 

I kept using the Scripture in Psalm 91 that says, “no plague shall come near your dwelling.”  My wife and I would pray that the virus had to stop its course because it wasn’t allowed.  We kept standing in faith that this virus would not fulfill what it was sent to do.  We know that in 1 Peter 2:24 (NASB), it says that by His stripes we were healed.  It doesn’t say we may be or might be healed, but that we were healed.  So, no matter how I felt from day to day, we stood on the Word and prayed it would go, and it did. 

From the very beginning of creation, God has given us the authority over everything that moves or creeps on the earth.  After the fall, the authority was taken away because of sin.  When Yeshua died and was raised again, He took the keys of death, hell, and the grave from the devil and his dominion.  Yeshua took back the authority from the enemy, and because of our relationship with Him, we have been given the authority once again against everything that moves across the land, and this includes the China Virus. 

Genesis 1:28 (NASB) God blessed them; and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth, and subdue it; and rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over every living thing that moves on the earth.”

Luke 10:19 (TPT) Now you understand that I have imparted to you My authority to trample over his kingdom. You will trample upon every demon before you and overcome every power Satan possesses. Absolutely nothing will harm you as you walk in this authority.

Let’s Pray!

Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for the authority given to use through Your Son, Yeshua (Jesus Christ).  We thank You for His sacrifice, and taking upon His body every sin, sickness, and disease.  He not only died so we could have everlasting life, but He died so we could be healed, delivered, and walk in the authority once again that You meant for us to walk in. 

Father, today we use our authority, and we declare the end to the China Virus.  We declare the China Virus to stop its attack against humanity and die.  Lord, we use our authority, and we bind this virus and prevent its spread from this day forth.  We declare that the numbers of cases will continue to drop until there is no more virus. 

We thank You, Lord, for Your healing, and we declare Psalm 91 over us that says we dwell in the secret place, and that no plague shall come nigh our dwelling.  We declare we are off limits and are only spectators and not participators to the schemes of the enemy.  We use the authority given to us and declare in the name of Yeshua, we are victorious, healed, and whole. 

We pray for those that are in the hospitals being affected by this virus and we declare their turnaround healing now in Yeshua’s name.  We say go forth, Holy Spirit, with the healing balm and cover those that are being affected.  We expect miracles in Yeshua’s name, and we tell those in the hospitals to be healed, rise up, and get out of the hospitals now, in Yeshua’s name.  We declare the same breath of life that created us to enter their lungs now, in Yeshua’s name. 

We thank You, Father, for creative miracles all over this nation and throughout the world, as people are miraculously healed from this virus.  We thank You for all authority granted to us through the blood of Yeshua, and we call an end to the virus now in the Mighty Name of Yeshua.  Amen.

Day 19—Prayer Siege Against the China Virus

October 19, 2021

Dear Joyful Warriors,

One of the devices of the *forever loser, is heaviness.  This pandemic has tried to create a heaviness in the lives of God’s people but we have our own weapon to fight and defeat this with.  Our weapon is just the opposite, it’s the garment of praise and the oil of joy.

• Isaiah 61:3 NKJV, To give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness…

Today, it’s time to war with our praise and contend with our joy.  When you and I act opposite of the way satan wants us to act, it puts confusion in the enemy’s camp.

• Nehemiah 8:10 NKJV, Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.

Put on joy, put on your praise.  In the word of God, when the army of Israel would put on praise during the time of battle, the Lord set ambushes against their enemy. 

• 2 Chronicles 20:22 NASB, When they began singing and praising, the Lord set ambushes against the sons of Ammon, Moab and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; so they were routed.

Go ahead, create a praise in the earth. Set up ambushes against this china virus.  Take over the atmosphere for those who are sick with this virus.  Do not give heaviness a place in their lives or your life.  Help them today through your praise to our Lord.

Let’s pray.  Father today we choose to put on joy. Today we put on praise. Lord, as the song decrees, Our praise is a weapon, use it to rout and take down our enemy, the china virus.

*Forever lose is a phrase our Lord gave Tim Sheets to describe satan.

We declare the earth is the Lord’s and everything in it, the world and all who live in it. Psalm 24:1

Based on this truth, and the delegated authority given to us.

• We break the assignment of death that has been released against the people in His world. 
• We pray for all those battling the China virus at this very moment.
• We forbid their condition to worsen.
• We command the virus to cease replicating in their cells.
• We pray for supernatural wisdom for the doctors. 
• We decree turnaround and healing in Jesus’ name.

Decree: 

We declare Jesus is highly exalted and was given the name which is above every name—that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow of those in heaven, and those on earth and of those under the earth and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. China virus must bow and end! China virus must yield and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord!

Day 18—Prayer Siege Against the China Virus

October 18, 2021

Dear Overcomers,

Move Forward!  That’s what a thriving overcoming praying church is called to do.  When it comes to defeating this uncircumcised china virus, we are making advancements in heaven and in earth.

The reason I call it uncircumcised, is because the virus has no inheritance in our life.  It’s not who we are, it’s not a part of our family, the family of God, and it’s not in our DNA. 

As we approach this virus, we must take a position of VICTORY as Caleb and Joshua did after spying out the land of PROMISE.  Defeat is not an option.  We approach this virus with a determination to see it defeated, in every life.

• Numbers 13:30 NASB, “Then Caleb quieted the people before Moses and said, “We should by all means go up and take possession of it, for we will surely overcome it.”

• Numbers 14:6-9 NASB, “Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, of those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes; ⁷ and they spoke to all the congregation of the sons of Israel, saying, “The land which we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land. ⁸ If the Lord is pleased with us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us—a land which flows with milk and honey. ⁹ Only do not rebel against the Lord; and do not fear the people of the land, for they will be our prey. Their protection has been removed from them, and the Lord is with us; do not fear them.”

Let there be a determination on your part to see this defeated. 

Here are some VICTORY points of Intercession.

1. Enter into His gate and courts with Thanksgiving and Praise.  Let there be a joyful shout to our Lord, let joyful singing come from your lips.  This kills the enemies plan to defeat you.

• Psalm 100 NASB, “Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth. ² Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before Him with joyful singing. ³ Know that the Lord Himself is God;
  It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. ⁴ Enter His gates with thanksgiving And His courts with praise.
  Give thanks to Him, bless His name. ⁵ For the Lord is good; His lovingkindness is everlasting and His faithfulness to all generations.”

• Lay hold of the magnificent and precious promises.  For through them you will wage your best fight against this virus.  Fight with the promises of our God.

• 2 Peter 1:3-4 NASB, “seeing that His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us by His own glory and excellence. ⁴ For by these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world by lust.”

• Don’t stop fighting.  Pray without ceasing! 

• 1 Thessalonians 5:16-17 NASB, “Rejoice always; ¹⁷ pray without ceasing; ¹⁸ in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

• Shout for the Lord has given you the VICTORY.  When our Lord told Joshua and the army of Israel to circle the city Jericho and on the last day, they circled it seven times.  Then when they finished the seventh time around, our Lord told them to SHOUT, for the Lord had given them the city.  They shouted and the walls of Jericho came down. The shout of victory puts fear and dread into the enemy’s camp and release the angels to work.  Walls fall!

• Joshua 6:16 NASB, “Shout! For the Lord has given you the city.”

I have been declaring that the China virus is defeated for many months now and then suddenly it has hit very close to home. My older sister became very ill and was rushed to the hospital and put in ICU. Suddenly my prayers and intercession were very personal and I begin to war over her for her to live and not die! It has been a month now that we have been warring over her and we are seeing major improvements and are still declaring miracles! I want to encourage everyone to stay strong and declare your loved ones will see the goodness of God in the land of the living! It matters that we don’t back down or get weary in our intercession and declarations but that we declare miracles, signs and wonders! My sister has just been moved out of ICU, she still needs many miracles from the Lord but I am contending daily and declaring Psalm 91 over her and theses healing Scriptures. I encourage you to declare the Word every day, declare healing and have a spirit of expectancy. God is the God of the impossible!

Psalm 27:13-14 NKJ ” I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living. Wait on the Lord; Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!”

Mark 9:23 NKJ  Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”

Mark 10:27 NKJ  But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”

Let’s Pray!

Dear Father God, we pray today for the intercessors to not grow weary in well doing and warring but to stand strong and sore on eagles’ wings and see from Your perspective, people completely healed and restored to health! We stand in the gap for all our loved ones and all those afflicted with this demonic, China virus of destruction and death and say, NO MORE, get your hands off of these people, you are defeated! We speak LIFE and declare those who are struggling will see breakthrough, suddenlies from heaven! We declare miracles are here and miracles are coming and we thank You, Jesus, ahead of time, that this virus is broken off of our nation and the nations of the earth! We declare, Jesus; You rule! You reign! Declaring multitudes will come to know You as Savior and Lord in this hour of history! You shine Your light in the darkness! Thank You for VICTORY! Thank You for MIRACLES! You are the God of the impossible! We will see the impossible happen NOW! In Jesus Name, Amen.
