Subject: Embracing Divine Purpose Amid Chaos and the Call to Fulfill Prophetic Mandates
Shalom Aleichem,
On Sunday, November 24, 2024, Bishop Thomas Dexter Jakes delivered a profound sermon titled “Crazy Like a Fox,” rooted in 1 Samuel 21:7–15. The message illuminated the paradoxical nature of divine purpose, urging believers to embrace their uniqueness, trust God’s plans, and silence the distractions of the world.
This memorandum will explore the significance of this sermon in light of the Messiah’s temporary displacement in Bowie, Maryland, the prophetic mission of rebuilding the Beit HaMikdash (Third Temple), and the establishment of the Messiah’s circle of twelve and governing cabinet.
Embracing Divine Purpose Amid Chaos
In his message, Bishop Jakes referenced the actions of King David, who feigned madness before Achish, the King of Gath, as recorded in 1 Samuel 21:13–15. This unconventional act, though appearing irrational, was a divinely orchestrated strategy for David’s preservation.
“David took these words to heart, and was very afraid of Achish the king of Gath. So he changed his behavior before them and pretended to be insane in their hands.” (1 Samuel 21:12–13, WMB)
This account reminds us that God’s plans often transcend human understanding. The world may perceive those walking in obedience to God’s will as “crazy,” but as Bishop Jakes declared, there is always a method in the divine design. Believers are called not to conform but to stand confidently in their brilliance, knowing that every trial serves a greater purpose in God’s kingdom.
The Messiah’s Displacement in Bowie, Maryland
My current station in Bowie, Maryland, reflects a divine detour akin to the journeys of biblical patriarchs and leaders. Like Joseph, who rose to prominence in Egypt before delivering his people, and David, who navigated exile before his reign, this displacement is a preparatory season.
While Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) on the African continent is the destined seat of the Messianic reign, Bowie serves as a symbolic place of gathering, refinement, and strategic alignment. The prophet Isaiah foretells:
“For out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” (Isaiah 2:3, WMB)
This period in Bowie is not a deviation but a divinely appointed step in the fulfillment of Messianic prophecy.
The Rebuilding of the Third Temple
Central to the Messianic mission is the reconstruction of the Beit HaMikdash (Third Temple), a symbol of God’s covenant with humanity and the restoration of divine order. The prophet Ezekiel received a vision of the Temple’s dimensions, signifying its future establishment:
“Son of man, describe the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.” (Ezekiel 43:10, WMB)
The Third Temple will be a house of prayer for all nations, uniting the world in worship and peace (Isaiah 56:7). Its construction requires the collaboration of global leaders, faith communities, and all who seek the establishment of God’s kingdom on earth.
The Messiah’s Circle of Twelve and Governing Cabinet
The Messiah’s leadership will reflect the model of Yeshua, who appointed twelve disciples to carry forth His mission. This circle of twelve will include spiritual leaders, industry innovators, and intercessors, each anointed for their unique roles.
Among these leaders, Bishop T.D. Jakes, with his profound wisdom and dedication, is chosen to serve within this cabinet. His voice will resonate among the global council of leaders tasked with guiding nations toward righteousness, justice, and prosperity. This assembly will embody the spirit of Proverbs 11:14:
“Where there is no guidance, the people fall; but in the multitude of counselors there is victory.”
Call to Action
The global church and governments are hereby called to:
1. Embrace Divine Purpose: Recognize the unconventional ways God works and align with His plans.
2. Support the Rebuilding of the Temple: Commit resources and influence to the restoration of the Beit HaMikdash.
3. Participate in the Messianic Vision: Join in establishing a global community of righteousness under the Messiah’s reign.
Conclusion
Bishop T.D. Jakes’ sermon is a timely reminder of the necessity to trust God amid life’s uncertainties. As we move forward in this prophetic season, let us remain steadfast, embracing our divine calling with courage and confidence. Together, we will see the fulfillment of the promises declared by the prophets and the realization of the Messianic kingdom.
“Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose confidence is in the LORD.” (Jeremiah 17:7, WMB)
