05/31 Thoughts & Comments By Dr. Daniel Daves

31-May 1 Kings 21-22, Mark 3-4, Psalms 1-5, Proverbs 31

1 Kings 21:15-16 (NIV) 15 As soon as Jezebel heard that Naboth had been stoned to death, she said to Ahab, "Get up and take possession of the vineyard of Naboth the Jezreelite that he refused to sell you. He is no longer alive, but dead." 16 When Ahab heard that Naboth was dead, he got up and went down to take possession of Naboth's vineyard.

Wicked Jezebel pulled a political maneuver to kill Naboth under false pretense so her husband could get his vinyard for a vegetable garden. Using political authority to have people falsely accused and killed is highly offensive to the Lord. This move brought God's final judgment down on Ahab, Zezebel, and their son. Woe to anyone who seizes the land of another legitimate owner! This story makes clear, the authority lines of a property owner, and the judgments of God when anyone crosses the line of property ownership.

SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY is a book that I highly recommend, by Watchman Nee. Anyone walking with God in a Christian relationship MUST get the principles of this book under your belt, or you will suffer tremendous harm and even judgment. I have counseled countless ministers who don't know anything about God's authority structure, and who are making critical mistakes that are destroying their lives, ministries, and the people of God. Everyone GET THE BOOK! And keep it on your shelf after reading it. Teach it to your children, and to everyone you know. It will save you from correction, destruction, and judgment on earth.

Note from the book's publisher: Authority is a tremendous thing in the universe, nothing overshadows it. God s throne is established on His authority. God s authority represents God Himself. God alone is authority in all things; all the authorities of the earth are instituted by God. It is therefore important for us who desire to serve God to know the authority of God. God s authority is absolute, hence we must give Him absolute submission (our hearts attitude) and absolute obedience (our outward actions). But to His delegated authorities we can render absolute submission, but only relative obedience. For their authorities are circumscribed by the measure of the life of Christ in them. Only when they themselves submit to God s authority in them are they able to represent God. Hence there is much we have to learn about how to represent God.


I had a dream in 2008 which I believe is from God. In the dream, a government official spoke three powerful statements which indicated the US government's official position regarding our future. What I heard was given to me so that I would know in advance, what was to come. One of the statements the official made was: "All Property Lines Have Been Dissolved.". This means that the U.S. Government is making plans to seize Naboth's vinyard. No property line is sacred because they are planning to dissolve them all! Who would do such a thing, being that our Constitution and Bill of Rights clearly lay down property lines and the lines of freedom and security? A rogue, non believing, non God honoring, Ahab and Jezebel government would do such a thing. Today's scripture reading show exactly what is happening in America and around the Western world, as property lines are being dissolved around us. Your right to free speech is being dissolved. Your right to keep and bear arms is being dissolved. Your right to own land and be left alone on that land is dissolved. The definition of marriage has just been erased and is now taken over by thieves. Everything is being re-defined including who you are as an American, or which ever nation you reside in. We are all being forced together into a one world order, a new world order, basically one large commune of world citizens that many would call Communism on steroids. If necessary, the political machine will kill Naboth in order to get his vineyard. If an industry needs to be killed in order to capture the auto manufacturers, Jezebel will gladly do it. If the U.S. economy needs to be killed in order to seize control of land, then Ahab's political machine will gladly do it. We live in dark times and Ahab & Jezebel are on the throne. However, Elijah is also in the land, and his judgment upon them by God will be fierce and without mercy.

This is not a time to be seizing another man's land at his expense. This is not the time to be taxing people, raising fees on them, or throwing your hat in the ring to join the taxation and seizure movement. God is watching us all, and anyone who seizes another man's property for our own pleasure will fall under direct judgment of God. These seizures are a direct violation of God's authority, and these sins are not easily forgiven! Read the book SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY to understand that EVERYONE who rebels against God's authority will enjoy a one way trip downward into final judgment with no return ever given. Lucifer, Adam, Korah, King Saul, Ahab, Jezebel, and the list goes on. They ALL lost their place and never returned to that position of authority.

God's commands us to NOT move boundary stones or erase property lines:

Deuteronomy 19:14 (NIV) Do not move your neighbor's boundary stone set up by your predecessors in the inheritance you receive in the land the LORD your God is giving you to possess.

Proverbs 22:28 (NIV) Do not move an ancient boundary stone set up by your forefathers.

Proverbs 23:10-11 (NIV) 10 Do not move an ancient boundary stone or encroach on the fields of the fatherless, 11 for their Defender is strong; he will take up their case against you.

COMPASS GUIDE Students, realize that God has given you a dream. There are giants in the land which you will slay in order to possess the dream and seize the land. There is legitimate take over of lands, houses, businesses, inheritances, automobiles, and farms. However, it must be done correctly so as not to violate authority. King David is the pure example of submission to God and not forcing his way to the throne. King Saul was on the throne. David was anointed as the new king and Saul was rejected by God. David could have killed evil Saul on many occasions but he chose not to touch the Lord's man. He required God to kill Saul and waited in submission under authority for God to do it. He would eventually sit on the throne after God used the Philistines to kill evil King Saul. And that act of submission made his rulership different than Saul's rebellious rulership. God blessed David and kept his kingdom through all the way to the birth of Jesus. It all came because of submission to authority.

You can do the same with your life. Yes, lay hold of the kingdom by force. Seize every moment and be ready to receive property as an inheritance. But don't break God's law and don't cross legitimate property lines to get the dream. If you make this mistake, you will lose your inheritance and join the others who slide quickly downward with no remedy. Once again, sinning against God's authority is not easily forgivable. Do it right.

As a final note, any time Ahab and Jezebel are on the scene seizing property lines using political maneuvering, Elijah is on his way to deliver a final edict of judgment. Their time will be short and their future will not be bright. If blood has been shed, then their blood will be shed, dogs will lick their blood, and birds will feed on their dead flesh. This is not a judgment that your or I want upon us or our families. Do things right!
