Prophecies to take to God in prayer and preparation!
Mike:
Hi, Mike and Cindy Jacobs here at Generals International. Cindy, I was just saying something the other day that I thought would be really encouraging to all of our friends.
It was a little saying that was actually in a clip that Barbara Wentroble did. It was SW, SW, SW. What does that stand for? I call it SW cubed. It means, “Some will, some won’t, so what?”
Here’s the deal with that, and the context of that is this: As you’re going through your life and there’s things that you’re offering to people, there’s things that you’ve received from the Lord, and you get all excited and you share it with people.
Some will get it. Some won’t get it. But so what? Just go with the ones who have the ability to receive. Some people have eyes that see. Some people don’t have eyes that see. But in this season, I’m believing for you that more people will be the first SW, “some will.” Just disregard the “some won’t” and go with the ones that will.
Cindy:
Yes, and I want to just speak into that because the Lord would say, “There is a real attack from the enemy, trying to make people feel rejected and abandoned and confused.” The Lord is just speaking to me for you. Rejection can be the daily bread of a pioneer. You’re doing something, you’re starting down a new path. Whether it’s for your generation or to connect the generations, maybe you’re working on a new business idea. The Lord is saying to me that it’s not about whether they’re saying that they like your idea. It’s a God idea.
The Lord says just press ahead for it. The fact that people are pushing back against you really is an indicator that you’re going the right way. So, no pushback; you’re not a pioneer. Pioneers always have that. There’s always that giants in the land, they’re going to come up against you. I said, no giants, you’re not in your promised land.
So, I just want to encourage you, the Lord is going to give you the grace to reject rejection. He’s going to give you the strength to know you’re loved so much by your Father that you are not abandoned. Even if man should abandon you, even if your friends should abandon you, God will never forsake you. He is always there with you.
Continue pioneering, continue straight ahead. That confusion’s going to melt away. You’re going to know what to do, so just don’t be deterred from your path that God has set your feet to walk on. Just continue straight ahead, and you are going to be successful, and you will find a lot of people that will stand with you. Amen.

From LifeSite News:
Excerpt:The election of Donald Trump has suddenly brought everything into the open that was already underway. It has forced a necessary climax in this world-wide culture war.
This is good. But the “good” must now respond by finally starting to earnestly wage a defensive war to completely defeat the one-worlders. It is time to wake up to the reality of our collective and individual responsibilities in this international conflict between good and evil.
It is not possible to overstate the gravity of the situation.
Keep in mind that in 1976 (showing how long this has been on-going) Pope John Paul II, as then Cardinal Karol Wojtyla, warned,
“We are now standing in the face of the greatest historical confrontation humanity has ever experienced. I do not think that the wide circle of the American Society, or the whole wide circle of the Christian Community realize this fully. We are now facing the final confrontation between the Church and the anti-church, between the gospel and the anti-gospel, between Christ and the Antichrist.”
Also, in 2010 Pope Benedict stated the following in his Christmas message to the Vatican Curia,
“[O]ur world is at the same time troubled by the sense that moral consensus is collapsing, consensus without which juridical and political structures cannot function. Consequently the forces mobilized for the defence of such structures seem doomed to failure….
“Alexis de Tocqueville, in his day, observed that democracy in America had become possible and had worked because there existed a fundamental moral consensus which, transcending individual denominations, united everyone. Only if there is such a consensus on the essentials can constitutions and law function. This fundamental consensus derived from the Christian heritage is at risk wherever its place, the place of moral reasoning, is taken by the purely instrumental rationality of which I spoke earlier. In reality, this makes reason blind to what is essential. To resist this eclipse of reason and to preserve its capacity for seeing the essential, for seeing God and man, for seeing what is good and what is true, is the common interest that must unite all people of good will. The very future of the world is at stake.”
Donald Trump did not start the conflict. He has merely brought it all out into the open for us to respond to.
From LifeSiteNews: https://www.lifesitenews.com/blogs/the-main-reason-for-the-hate-against-donald-trump
The Lord said “Just keep on obeying God for He is for you! Just keep putting one foot in front of the other, keep on getting up even though you have been knocked down! Just keep on pressing toward the Mark and do not doubt the promise that I gave you! Remember the things I showed you in the Secret Place so long ago. Remember that I am for you and not against you, no matter what that person has said to you! Remember that I was the one who chose you for this task and I have seen your persistence and heard your tears!
“The enemy has even tried to tell you that you were wrong about pursuing your dream! You are too religious, you don’t love enough, you will never get there because it is past the time, but I say to you that even as my servants the Prophets have finished their course, so shall you if you will keep on and in due season you are and will reap for this battle will be mine says the Lord! Watch what I do for I am about to annihilate the enemies that stand before you.I am going to have them in derision!” Yes, get back up now and move forward because you have momentum to reach the finish line!

There are those that would say of you. “I don’t understand how she/he was placed in this position “She /he has not paid their dues” but I hear the Lord saying ” They did not see what you went through as a child and you called my name so many times …
They did not see the maturing in the Spirit that happened as I brought you up myself…. They did not see that like David we slew the lion and the bear together……. and they do not know that I have called you to rule and reig…n with me and that this is only the beginning! So take heart my child for many jealousies will arise like King Saul of old,but you will rise to the occasion and be a deliverer to the people to whom I will send you.”
Jeremiah 1: 4-10 (KJ21) “Then the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,
“Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee, and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.”
Then said I, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I cannot speak, for I am a child.”
But the Lord said unto me, “Say not, ‘I am a child,’ for thou shalt go to all whom I shall send thee, and whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak.
Be not afraid of their faces, for I am with thee to deliver thee,” saith the Lord.
Then the Lord put forth His hand and touched my mouth. And the Lord said unto me, “Behold, I have put My words in thy mouth.
See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms to root out and to pull down, and to destroy and to throw down, to build and to plant.”

Many are being re-positioned into new places in these seasons, not only geographically, but into new positions of operating in the gifts of the Spirit for both …the body of Christ and for unbelievers, and it’s all to His great glory. Do not be surprised when God calls you to come higher, when He disciplines and re-directs you in this hour. Do not get hung up on the fact that you’ve been corrected… but begin to make the changes that are required when it’s coming from Him.
His discipline is coming out of His heart of love for you… His discipline brings re-alignment… His discipline is for your good, beloved one. It brings His great reward when you obey Him because you are being ‘proven’ as You have chose to yield everything to Him… it causes you to become more accurate by the Holy Spirit and more fully flowing in His gifts, as you do. Temporary adjustments that may seem strange or even a little painful to you at first ~ that are by His Spirit ~ reap amazing benefits in your life as well as all of those whose lives you touch!
Heed His calling, for He has greater purpose for you and He is causing you to rise up more fully than you had before. Do not reject the wisdom of those in authority into whose care you have been given, as they have been given to you to bring knowledge and wisdom in your process of maturing as you grow from glory to glory.
Remain in a position of thankfulness and joy at the fact that He loves you enough to bring correction to your life. The goal is to correct to re-direct, beloved one, always with your best interest at heart.
“No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.”
Hebrews 12:11
“My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline,
and do not resent his rebuke,
because the Lord disciplines those he loves,
as a father the son he delights in.”
Proverbs 3:11-12
“So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.”
Ephesians 4:11-13

something to take to the Lord in prayer…
“The Bear Awakes”
The last of 3 final messages given to Romanian Bible Smuggler Dumitru Dudumanin April of 1997.
…
I knelt beside my bed to pray, as I do every night before I go to sleep. After finishing my prayer, I opened my eyes but I was no longer in my room. Instead, I found myself in a forest. I looked around and to my right I saw a man, dressed in white, who pointed his finger and said, “See and remember.” It took me a while to find out what he was pointing at. It was a small bear who seemed half dead lying on the ground. As I continued to watch this bear, it began to breathe deeper. With every passing minute it seemed to revive itself, and as I watched, it also became angrier. It then began to grow. Soon it was larger than the forest floor and as it grew larger it continued to become angrier. It then began to paw the ground, so that when its paw would hit the ground, the earth would shudder. The bear continued to devastate all that stood in its path until it came upon some men with sticks trying to fend it off. By this time, the bear had grown so large that it simply crushed the men underfoot and continued to rampage. I was stunned by what I saw and asked the man standing beside me, “What does this mean?” “At first, they thought the great bear was dead,” the man said. “As it will begin to stir once again, they will consider it harmless. Suddenly it will grow strong once more with purpose and violence. God will blind the eyes of those that continue to trample on the sacrifice of Christ’s blood, until the day the bear will strike swiftly. This day will catch them unprepared and it will be just as you saw.” The man then said, “Tell my people the days are numbered and the sentence has been passed. If they will seek My face and walk in righteousness before Me, I will open their eyes that they may see the danger approach. If they only look to the approaching danger, they too will be caught up and trampled underfoot. Only in righteousness will they find safety.” Suddenly, I was once again by myself in my room, on my knees, with sweat covering my face.

About Dumitru Duduman
Dumitru Duduman was born to George and Escaterina Duduman on July 14, 1932 in Hintesti, Romania. His native village is situated in the northeastern part of Romania near the Russian border. Here Dumitru was brought up in the knowledge of God by his parents, but most of all from his grandfather, Costache, whom he loved deeply. He grew accustomed to religious persecution at a very young age seeing his father and older brother, Costache, put in prison for their beliefs. Although the rest of the family had not been arrested, they were ordered to hard labor in the Communist farmland projects.
Even though Dumitru had been brought up in a Christian home, by the age of fourteen he had started wandering from God. At the age of seventeen he rebelled and joined the Romanian army. His rejection of God saddened his parents greatly and for many months they prayed for him continually. Dumitru spent the first eight months of his army career in the Chitila boot camp. Even today this boot camp is well known for it’s harsh treatment of new recruits. After finishing boot camp, Dumitru was one of few soldiers chosen to go on to the Constanta Military School. He started in Constanta in 1951 and stayed there four and one half years. Upon his graduation, Dumitru received a diploma and was given the rank of Lieutenant in the Marines. Soon he had eighty men under his command.
It was also during this time that persecution against Christians began to escalate. Dumitru was given orders to search every ship coming into the Constanta harbor at the Black Sea. If he should find Bibles, he was to confiscate them and arrest whomever was responsible for bringing them into the country.
One morning as he and eight of his men were searching a ship, Dumitru came upon a large number of bibles. He was overjoyed at finding the Bibles knowing that this would bring yet another upgrade in his ranking.
While questioning the man who was responsible for bringing the Bibles, Dumitru had his first personal encounter with the power of God. He heard a voice telling him to help the man unload the Bibles and cause him no harm. When the voice persisted , Dumitru obeyed and helped the missionary to the fullest.
For two years Dumitru remained on the Black Sea helping missionaries that came through. After being sent to another school for six months, he was returned to his unit as a full Major. The future seemed very bright for Dumitru, until the Communist government of Romania passed a law that would change his life forever. They ordered that all soldiers in the Romanian army who are Christians or who came from Christian homes to be dismissed immediately.
At age twenty-four, angry and disappointed, Dumitru returned home seeking vengeance. He went to the church service that his father was attending with the purpose of venting his anger and frustrations. As he walked to the church service, he heard a song being sung that touched his heart so deeply that he began to weep. This was the seed that took root in his heart and made him commit himself to God not long after that experience. Shortly after this event he met Maria (Ecatarina) who would become his wife and bear his first child. A girl, whom they named Virginia, was born to them on April 18, 1957. One year later, Maria gave birth to another baby, this time a boy. They named him Costica, but he died when he was only five and a half months old.
In his time of trial Dumitru turned to God, and his love for the Lord continued to grow. He was soon baptized with the Holy Spirit, and not long after he began to preach.
As he continued to dedicate himself to God, the enemy came against him more and more. People were coming to Christ, and the devil was not pleased. After much prayer and a promise from God, Dumitru finally saw the hand of God move in a mighty way. Maria was healed and her sight was completely restored. God began to use Dumitru in the area of healing and prophecy, and many saw the power of God during his travels throughout Romania. As Dumitru continued to see God’s goodness and power, he became involved in Bible smuggling. There was a great hunger for the Word of God in Romania, as well as in Russia, and Bibles were very scarce.
In 1973 Dumitru began smuggling large quantities of Bibles over the Russian border. He had established many connections with outside missionaries who would supply him with Bibles. Through many miraculous occurrencies, God continually protected Dumitru. In one instance, God even blinded the eyes of the police so they would not see the car filled with Bibles that he was riding in. In all of his years of smuggling Bibles he was never caught. In 1979 based on information received from informants within the Christian church, Dumitru was arrested and brutally tortured for over five months. Every means imaginable were used, from electric shock to breaking nine of his ribs trying to obtain the names of people that helped Dumitru smuggle Bibles. With God’s help he never broke under the severe persecution, and he never revealed the names of his Christian borthers. While Dumitru was in prison, God spoke to him through an angel, encouraging him not to fear for he still had much work to do. He was told that he would be released and that he would smuggle Bibles into Romania and into Russia for another five years. Just as the angel had said, after the death of the Colonel who was heading up the investigation, Dumitru was released and for another four years he faithfully did the work of God. Over a fifteen-year period, with God’s help, Dumitru smuggled more than 300,000 Bibles and New Testaments into Russia alone, not taking into account the number of Bibles that he distributed throughout Romania.
On July 24, 1984 Dumitru and his entire family were expelled from Romania by the Communist officials. He had been given two options; either leave the country or die. It was difficult decision for Dumitru because Romanian was all that he had ever known. He would be going to unknown places where he neither spoke the language nor knew anyone who could help him. Once again, God spoke to Dumitru encouraging him and telling him that all would be well. He has yet another task to accomplish and God would be with him wherever he went.
After leaving Romania, the Duduman family made a brief stop in Italy where there was a failed attempt on his life by the Romanian Secret Police. Soon after, they boarded another plane, and on August 3, 1984 they were on American soil. Once in America, God gave Dumitru a message for this nation as well as for the American church. Life was difficult for the Duduman family during the first years in America but with God’s guidance and direction, they persevered. They started a small ministry called Hand of Help, whose primary purpose at that time was to send food packages and financial aid to the families of Christian brethren who had been arrested for their faith. After the revolution of 1989, Dumitru was able to go back to Romania and see his family. The desire to help his fellow Christians still burned in his heart, and since 1990, through the work of Hand of Help, he has been able to do so. His purpose has always been a simple one: to be obedient to God’s Word and to all that God would ask. He was a tireless advocate for righteousness and purity and he carried on the message of God even while his body grew old and began to revolt against him. Against his doctor’s orders, he continued to travel throughout the world preaching the Word of God until finally in May of 1997, God called his servant home.

Dumitru Duduman’s Vision of America’s Sudden Destruction Dumitru Duduman
In Loving Memory of Dumitri Duduman
July 14,1932 – May 5, 1997
Dumitri’s Vision: America Will Burn •
“The Russian spies have discovered where the nuclear warehouses are in America. When the Americans will think that it is peace and safety – from the middle of the country, some of the people will start fighting against the government. The government will be busy with internal problems. Then from the ocean, from Cuba, Nicaragua, Mexico,… (He told me two other countries, but I didn’t remember what they were.) …they will bomb the nuclear warehouses. When they explode, America will burn!”
bullet Introduction
His grandson, Mike Boldea, translated for Dumitri as he went from one enthralled audience to the next. The message he gave in 1991 was a recapitulation of the amazing story told in his book. Several people saw angelic beings standing next to him as he delivered his powerful testimony of warning and repentance.
He spoke of his miraculous conversion from being a Bible-confiscating atheist-communist agent to being a freedom-loving Christian; how he then after a week of fasting and praying with his Father’s congregation was called of the Spirit to help bring Bibles into Romania and the Soviet Union. We were enthralled by the stories of how angels would appear to help at crucial times and give instruction, how the Communist police would be blinded as to the existence of a trunk full of Bibles, for example. All told, he was instrumental in smuggling 300,000 Bibles into these Communist block countries.
He told of when they finally hauled him into prison, and how by calling upon the Lord he was able to never give out any information despite the horrendous tortures they meted upon him. The stories of the brutalities he endured in prison without ever revealing any information were both faith-promoting and they gave me a deep respect for Dumitri’s level of trust in the Lord. He told of his miraculous deliverance from an electric chair and prison, and then of his miraculous healing four months later, at which time an angel told him the exact year, month, day, and hour he would be deported to the United States. He then told of the vision he was given once he arrived in the U.S., which he was then commissioned to proclaim far and wide.
Hearing his story or reading his book is like reading the Acts of the Apostles.
Many people have heard his witness and have changed their life for the better. I cannot help but think that this has had the effect of turning away — at least in part — the destruction that was slated to come upon us. Nevertheless, I still believe that these things are in our future because of choices that are being made against God.
bullet Dumitri’s Vision: America Will Burn
The following is the witness of warning that Dumitri gave to each of the meetings he addressed in his 1990 speaking tour mentioned above
(Quoting from chapter 10, Through the Fire Without Burning)
– September 1984 –
Late one night I could not sleep. The children were sleeping on the luggage. My wife and daughter were crying. I went outside and walked around. I didn’t want them to see me cry. I walked around the building, crying and saying, “God! Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me into this country? I can’t understand anybody. If I try to ask anybody anything, all I hear is, ‘I don’t know.”‘
I stopped in front of the apartment and sat on a large rock. Suddenly a bright light came toward me. I jumped to my feet because it looked as if a car was coming directly at me, attempting to run me down! I thought the Romanian Secret Police had tracked me to America, and now they were trying to kill me. But it wasn’t a car at all. As the light approached, it surrounded me. From the light I heard the same voice that I had heard so many times in prison. He said, “Dumitru, why are you so despaired?”
I said, “Why did you punish me? Why did you bring me to this country? I have nowhere to lay my head down. I can’t understand anybody.”
He said, “Dumitru, didn’t I tell you I am here with you also? I brought you to this country because this country will burn.”
I said, “Then why did you bring me here to burn? Why didn’t you let me die in my own country? You should have let me die in jail in Romania!”
He said, “Dumitru, have patience so I can tell you. Get on this.” I got on something next to him. I don’t know what it was. I also know that I was not asleep. It was not a dream. It was not a vision. I was awake just as I am now. He showed me all of California and said, “This is Sodom and Gomorrah! All of this, in one day it will burn! It’s sin has reached the Holy One.” Then he took me to Las Vegas. “This is Sodom and Gomorrah. In one day it will burn.” Then he showed me the state of New York. “Do you know what this is?” he asked.
I said, “No.”
He said, “This is New York. This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn.”
Then he showed me all of Florida. “This is Florida,” he said. “This is Sodom and Gomorrah! In one day it will burn.”
Then he took me back home to the rock where we had begun. “All of this I have shown you – IN ONE DAY IT WILL BURN!”
I said, “How will it burn?”
He said, “Remember what I am telling you, because you will go on television, on the radio and in churches. You must yell with a loud voice. Do not be afraid, because I will be with you.”
I said, “How will I be able to go? Who knows me here in America? I don’t know anybody here.”
He said, “Don’t worry yourself. I will go before you. I will do a lot of healing in the American churches, and I will open the doors for you. But do not say anything else besides what I tell you. This country will burn!”
I said, “What will you do with the Church?” He said, “I want to save the Church, but the churches have forsaken me.” I said, “How did they forsake you?”
He said, “The people praise themselves. The honor that the people are supposed to give Jesus Christ, they take upon themselves. In the churches there are divorces. There is adultery in the churches. There are homosexuals in the churches. There is abortion in the churches; and all other sins that are possible. Because of the sin, I have left some of the churches. You must yell in a loud voice that they must put an end to their sinning. They must turn toward the Lord. The Lord never gets tired of forgiving. They must draw close to the Lord, and live a clean live. If they have sinned until now, they must put an end to it, and start a new life as the Bible tells them to live.”
I said, “How will America burn? America is the most powerful country in this world. Why did you bring us here to burn? Why didn’t you at least let us die where ALL the Dudumans have died?”
He said, “Remember this, Dumitru. The Russian spies have discovered where the nuclear warehouses are in America. When the Americans will think that it is peace and safety – from the middle of the country, some of the people will start fighting against the government. The government will be busy with internal problems. Then from the ocean, from Cuba, Nicaragua, Mexico,…” (He told me two other countries, but I didn’t remember what they were.) “…they will bomb the nuclear warehouses. When they explode, America will burn!”
“What will you do with the Church of the Lord? How will you save the ones that will turn toward you?” I asked.
He said, “Tell them this: how I saved the three young ones from the furnace of fire, and how I saved Daniel in the lions den, is the same way I will save them.”
The angel of the Lord also told me, “I have blessed this country because of the Jewish people who are in this country. I have seven million Jews in this country, but they do not want to recognize the Lord. They didn’t want to thank God for the blessings they received in this country.”
“Israel doesn’t want to recognize Jesus Christ. They put their faith in the Jewish people in America. But, when America burns, the Lord will raise China, Japan and other nations to go against the Russians. They will beat the Russians and push them all the way to the gates of Paris. Over there they will make a treaty, and appoint the Russians as their leaders. They will then unite against Israel.”
“When Israel realizes she does not have the strength of America behind her, she will be frightened. That’s when she will turn to the Messiah for deliverance. That’s when the Messiah will come. Then, the church will meet Jesus in the air, and He will bring them back with Him to the Mount of Olives. At that time the battle of Armageddon will be fought.”
When I heard all of this I said, “If you are truly the angel of the Lord, and everything you have told me is true, then all you have said must be written in the Bible.”
He said, “Tell everyone to read from Jeremiah 51:8-15, Revelation chapter 18, and Zechariah chapter 14, where Christ fights against those who possess the earth. After His victory,” the angel said, “there will be one flock and one Shepherd. There will be no need for light. The Lamb of God will be the Light. There will be no sickness, no tears, and no deaths. There will only be eternal joy and God will be the ruler. There will be only one language. Only one song. And no need for a translator!”
“And, Dumitru,” he continued, “a word of warning. If you keep anything from the American people that you are told, I will punish you severely.” [Dumitru comes from a punitive culture where this is the way you talk to get someone’s attention.]
“How will I know that this is for real – that it will really happen?” I asked.
“As a sign that I have spoken to you, tomorrow before you wake I will send someone to bring you a bed, and at noon I will send you a car and a bucket of honey. After which, I will send someone to pay your rent.”
Then the angel left.

What To Do
Everything is ready to happen right now. It will be on a day just like today. “In one day America will burn.” It will be a surprise attack just like Pearl Harbor, except this time America will be the target of nuclear weapons. It will happen when we least expect it, only it will be in your city or a place near you. As Americans, our only hope is to turn away from sin to a new life in Jesus Christ. God is not asking us to do hard things, but to stop lying, cheating, stealing and sinning in all possible ways. He is not telling us to run out of America or run to the mountains or forest to hide. God is telling us to run to Him and He will protect us, even if a nuclear bomb falls right next to us. But without God’s protection, what defense would you have against a nuclear attack.
If You are a Christian
If you are a Christian living in sin, you must put an end to it today. Tomorrow will be too late! Just say to God from your heart that you are sorry for what you have done in disgracing the name of God and Jesus to all those around you, through them seeing you living in sin. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and make you clean. God never gets tired of forgiving – it doesn’t matter what you have done in the past, but now go and do not sin anymore!
If you have never prayed to receive the Holy Spirit, then pray everyday without ceasing. He will replace the emptiness inside of you with peace, love and joy. He will guide you in all truth, comfort you in your times of distress and help you say no to sin.
“Many who carry the name of CHRISTIAN are overcome by greed, fornication, drunkenness, and a pursuit for great wealth. Those who live in defilement and meditate upon evil things will have no escape…”
If You are not a Christian
If you are not a Christian and have not received the gift of forgiveness, which God grants freely, then right now ask God for it. Just pray to God from your heart and say that you are sorry for every sin and every evil thought or desire. Ask Jesus to come into your heart; it is the most important thing in your life. “You must believe and confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God.” be baptized in water and pray everyday without ceasing to receive the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will help you turn your life around so that you can, as Jesus instructed the woman caught in adultery, “Go and sin no more.” Get to know God better by reading the Bible. You may find it helpful to start with the gospel of John in the New Testament.
God’s Promises to Americans
“The pure in heart will not be punished…Those who are faithful and true, will hear the trumpet of God and the voice of God’s angel crying WAKE UP! They will be told where to go.”…l looked down and saw beautiful cities… “This is your refuge when the times of tribulation fall upon California. Your family and all those who hear the voice of the Lord will understand the message of God’s mighty trumpet. “Only the righteous will I save, some out of the midst of the fire.”
“I the Lord will work in ways that you cannot imagine, but be Holy.”
A great army, well armed and dressed in white, appeared before me. “This army will go to battle to save my chosen ones.”
“At the appointed time, I will speak to them like I speak to you as to what they must do.”
“I will send a chariot of salvation and take each one out in his appointed time.”
“All those who repent and turn back to God will be saved from the day of trouble.”

Fire in The Heavens
January 3, 1994
It was past midnight. Unable to sleep, I got on my knees and began to pray. I do not know how long I prayed, but suddenly I began to see a great fire in the heavens. It was so powerful that to me it seemed like the sky was burning. Then a man dressed in shiny clothes stepped out of the fire. On his head He had a helmet. In His right hand He had a sword out of which flames of fire kept erupting. In His left hand He had a trumpet into which He began to blow. The sounds that the trumpet made were actually words which were uttered in many different languages. I did not understand what they were saying, but I caught some Hebrew words and also some English words. When I was straining to understand and troubling myself over what the voice had said, I heard it speak in Romanian. “This is the last warning,” the trumpet blew, “The day of God’s vengeance is coming upon the earth and upon this place! Be prepared and be holy, My people, that I may save you!”
After these words, arrows of fire began to dance on the sky. They were so powerful that I became scared. Beginning to pray again, I saw the same thing all over. Then, while still praying, the same thing was shown to me a third time.

I hear the Lord say, it is time to build Elijah’s altar. What do you mean, you may ask? In your heart, there can be no sacrifice made to other idols. We do not worship idols you may say! Your idols are not of wood, precious metals or stone. Your idols are media devices, material possessions, your jobs, people you won’t let go of, secret sins, and your biggest idol…is self. If you want fire there must be a sacrifice on the altar. For I am an all consuming fire! I will pour out the spirit of Elijah and fire on those who become a sacrifice on the altar. No matter how much water others throw on you to quench you, they will not be able, for I will consume the the water, and lick it up around you. They may call on their gods but I will be the only one who answers. They will mock and persecute you but I will answer by fire, demonstrate my power and I will laugh from the heavens. Once you are fully consumed of me, you will become my burning ones, lighting up the darkest places with my love. They will see your hearts of fire as you usher them into my kingdom. They will believe because you will not win them by finely crafted speeches but by powerful demonstrations of my spirit and love. Lift up your hands oh weary ones, bring a sacrifice of praise, and I will answer by fire! http://spiritfuel.me/build-elijahs-altar/

Connie M. Giordano “Timely Hedge Knowledge“ excerpt: “What, in the Bible, is used to denote protection or something built by God one minute and then torn down by Him the next? What describes something “made up” by men, crooked leaders, and the way of the slothful man? Did you guess the “hedge”? If so, you are correct! Believe it or not, God uses it to reveal the true condition of our own spiritual condition or that of our leaders and nation.
Due to a lifestyle of slothfulness and complacency, have you allowed your imagination to build a “hedge of thorns” – to create insurmountable fears, difficulties, hardships, and dangers which seek to convince you that you cannot obey God in what He is asking of you?
He can use anything to cause a people to come to their knees.
Today, let’s allow Him to use the “hedge” to speak Truth to our hearts and to draw us into a closer walk with Him.

“But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in His presence.” (1 Corinthians 1:27-29)

The Hand of the Lord
By: Bobby Conner
October 3, 2014
…
In a startling prophetic experience, the Lord said, ” I have a message for the Church!” The message is: – “Brace yourself in the Spirit of Humility! The hand of the Lord is coming down upon the Church.”
I said “Lord!” that sounds threatening, He replied in a positive tone “It is!” The best thing is to be corrected, and the course set straight!
THE HAND OF THE LORD
The hand of the Lord deals with His Divine Government. His hand will come down and commence to shake down everything He has not built. The hand of the Lord also speaks of the functioning fivefold ministry flowing together.
The Word of God declares:
“Unless the LORD builds the house, they labor in vain who build it; unless the LORD guards the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.”
Psalm 127:1
The writer of the book of Hebrews warns us concerning this upcoming shaking:
See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this, “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom, which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.
Hebrews 12:25-29
God Is Going To Deal With Our Foundation
God Will Demolish Man’s Self-glorifying Efforts.
God is revealing and shaking down every work that is not of HIM. The example of how He dealt with the tower of Babel is a warning for all who attempt to build a name for themselves.
In Genesis 11:1-9:
Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.”
They had brick for stone, and they had slime for mortar. And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.”
But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the sons of men had built. And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them. “Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.”
So the LORD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they ceased building the city. Therefore its name is called Babel, because there the LORD confused the language of all the earth; and from there the LORD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.
God is again destroying every effort of mankind to build a name for themselves and attempting to get to heaven without God. This coming judgment of God will deal with fruit as well as foundation.
The Refiner’s fire will only serve to purify and make more precious the true faith. (See Malachi 3:1-3)
The Tower of Babel was an ancient tower symbolizing man’s pride and rebellion that was built during the period after the flood. The teachings are many for us in this display of God’s disapproval of our efforts to seek a name and a place for ourselves apart from the Spirit of God. We must remember salvation is from the Lord, man cannot work his way into the kingdom of God. (See Eph. 2:8-10) also (Titus 3:5-7)
Brick In The Place Of Stone- Bricks Speaks of the work of man.
The tower was constructed of brick. Brick is always the type of man’s labors and man’s work. Man builds with brick because they are all formed alike, uniformity is not a substitute for true unity, however bricks are an inferior substitute for stone. (See Is. 9:10)
No matter how big a tower we build it is nothing for God to shake down. To men the tower is an architectural monument Deut. 1:28, but to God it is so small that He must come down from heaven to catch a glimpse of this tiny endeavor. The construction of the tower and city is described as an act of self-glorification by the builders. Mankind continuously plays the role of a fool when he attempts to seek for his own protection, attempting to be his own salvation. It is a mistake to seek salvation and help from any source except God. (See Proverbs 14:12, and Acts 4:12)
OUR FOUNDATION IS FUNDAMENTAL
Foundation is the strong, stable base on which a building is built. Jesus spoke very powerful about foundations in the Sermon on the Mount, teaching that believers should build their faith on the strong, solid foundation of obeying His Word. The apostle Paul also referred to Christ as a foundation for believers (see 1 Cor. 3:11). The Prophet Isaiah reveals how precious and powerful Christ Jesus is in Isa 28:16 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: “Behold, I lay in Zion a stone for a foundation, a tried stone, a precious cornerstone, a sure foundation; whoever believes will not act hastily.
In this vision I was told that we must examine the foundation to make sure it was solid. It is crucial that we have the correct foundation. Hear the warning of Jesus Christ spoken in:
Matthew 7:20-27:
“Therefore by their fruits you will know them. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. “Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ “And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ “Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. “Now everyone who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: “and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great was its fall.”
Notice Jesus was inspecting the foundation not just the deeds being done. This is a strong warning, against just trusting in what one does as evidence that they are right with God.
EXAMINATION TIME
It is time for some very close investigation and examinations. Hear these instructions found in 2 Cor. 13:5 “Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? — unless indeed you are disqualified”. It is time to ask the Spirit of God to turn on the searchlight and expose everything false and fake in our life.
The only sure foundation is the Word of God. Paul writes in:
1 Cor. 3:11-15: For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is. If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
The fire of God’s judgment will only work the work of purifying if our foundation is correct and will only prove what we have built.
THE SURE SOLID FOUNDATION
Jesus Christ is the only true Cornerstone and Foundation.
Ps. 118:22-23:
The stone which the builders rejected has become the chief cornerstone.
This was the LORD’S doing; it is marvelous in our eyes. We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone; In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord: In whom ye also are builder together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
THE FIVE-FOLD MINISTRY
This coming Government of God’s hand will be the functioning five fold ministry spoken of in Paul’s letter to the Church at Ephesus in Eph. 4:11-14: And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ, till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ; that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting.
We are experiencing the unfolding of the promised five-fold ministry. Thank God for how the Spirit of God is releasing understanding about the roles and responsibilities of these ministries. God is bringing about a team ministry that will prepare the Saints for the work of service. The Christian life was never intended to be something we observed someone else doing. It is time to be actively serving Jesus.
THE PROPER POSTURE AND POSITION
In response to the warning of “brace yourself”, I questioned “Lord! How can we be ready for the hand of God?” He said only in the place of true humility. It is time to get honest and humble before the Lord. We have been brought to a place of real repentance. It is a broken and contrite heart that touches the heart of God. (See Psalms 51:17)
May God grant us the grace to fall upon the Rock in true humility. Asking God to prune us and cut away from our lives anything that would keep us from being fruitful for the Kingdom of God. We welcome this coming shaking in order to deal with any deception. Remember it is only on Christ the Solid Rock we can stand, all else is sinking sand.
(Amen!)

Instead of arguing about whether or not He’s coming to rapture us – we should be on our knees together and preparing as if HE ISNT
October 6, 2014
The longer we take to prepare the way of The Lord, the greater the cost our communities and nation will pay.
This was the statement I read this past weekend to a group of intercessors in a Community Transformation event. It was a statement made by George Otis Jr. in regards to the need for a GREATER URGENCY among believers in this hour. Unexpectedly, as I read it, the heart of the Lord settled upon me and I began to weep. I had a hint of this as I was preparing the day before, but now, in front of the group it hit me full force.
I felt the Lord’s deep grief and remorse over our current situation as a nation and for the next 24 hours, I was overcome with this pain and anguish of heart and couldn’t stop crying. As I prayed and waited on the Lord, I felt He wanted us to know THIS expression and feeling in his heart, even as many speak of the “coming judgment” to our country. If we do not understand His HEART in this, many will misunderstand the things that MUST TAKE PLACE in the days ahead in order for us to BECOME the glorious Bride He is longing for…
In Luke 19:41-42, we get a glimpse of Jesus’ heart and perspective: And when he drew near and saw the city, he wept over it, saying, “Would that you, even you, had known on this day the things that make for peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes. (44)…because you did not recognize the time of (your visitation) God’s coming to you.””. Similarly, in Luke 13:34, “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you were not willing.”
This is exactly what I felt standing in front of that group as I was trying to put into words what I felt. I heard myself say, “I didn’t want to do this!!” and my heart literally HURT as I spoke His words. He took me back to the last national election when I, along with many other believers, was praying that God would put the right man in the White House that would reflect godly, biblical values. It was the week right before the election when the Lord told me to change my prayer. This caught me off guard, but when I realized what He was asking me to pray, I understood the gravity of the situation as never before. Just as a parent’s heart breaks over his ever-wandering child…the only prayer left to pray sometimes is…”Lord…WHATEVER IT TAKES to turn them back to you…”
As a parent of three young adult kids, I know how difficult it is to pray a prayer like this. The Lord wants us to understand the depth of His love and mercy. His Father’s heart longs to pull us close and demonstrate the insurmountable, immeasurable extent of His love, goodness and power. YET, His love constrains Him from doing this, for He knows that if He does not have OUR HEARTS, He does not truly have US.
The LONGER that the Body of Christ takes to PREPARE the WAY of the Lord through personal and corporate prayer, fasting and pursuing His daily presence, the GREATER THE COST WILL BE to our families, communities and nation. What we see coming upon us is only the result of us PUTTING THESE THINGS OFF and presuming our national security will take care of us.
It is OUR SIN and rebellion that judges us. This is why the EARTH IS GROANING (Romans 8:22). The very land itself is weighted down by centuries of sin, disease, idolatry and rebellion resulting in “natural” disasters and upending destruction. The increasing immorality, ungodliness and wickedness being witnessed in our land are the results of bad choices and turning away from God. The land has become a witness to our lack of obedience and stewardship. The judgments we talk about are not God’s anger directed at us, but the result of our own lukewarm hearts that have tried to have both the kingdom of God and the kingdoms of this world. They aren’t compatible!
UNTIL there are altars of prayer, worship and dedication to the Lordship of Christ in EVERY sphere of influence in our culture, the rising altars of the spirit of anti-Christ will OUTNUMBER US. This is why this is an urgent hour. The “judgments” standing at the door of this nation will only have power if we stand back and do nothing. James puts it fairly clearly: “So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.” (James 4:17 ESV). The OPPORTUNITY before us is historic. We are about to be a part of the greatest move of God the world has ever seen – but ONLY if we respond rightly to His initiatives and invitations.
To those who believe in “victorious eschatology” I would say this. Yes, God’s kingdom is advancing and there should be NO FEAR of what lies ahead. But, instead of arguing about whether or not He’s coming to rapture us – we should be on our knees together and preparing as if HE ISNT! We cannot exempt ourselves from our own responsibility in rising up in this hour and not only shining God’s light in the darkness, but turning away from those distractions and compromises that are a stumbling block to His coming in glory to this nation.
Just as Jesus wept over Jerusalem, so He weeps for America. As a loving Father, His heart constrains Him to do that which He does not want to do, but HAS to do in order to call us back to His heart. Where our goal and cry may be for DELIVERANCE from this mess, He is after the DELIVERANCE FROM OURSELVES. This will not happen simply by being united in a purpose, program or even vision. It must be a ONENESS OF PURSUIT. We must put aside petty differences and divisive doctrines and come together to seek His face on a consistent basis. We must pursue holiness, humility and serve one another in covenantal love, honoring one another’s gifts, assignments and roles in this hour.
It needs to start at home, personally and then as a family. Practice Psalm 91: “He who DWELLS in the shelter of the Most High will ABIDE in the shadow of the Almighty.” It is only in the PLACE OF HIS PRESENCE that we will find true safety, security and identity. REGARDLESS of what comes to this nation, God’s purpose is that we WALK TOGETHER in oneness of heart, knowing the true power of His love and goodness.
“Thus says the Lord: “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and they say, ‘Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it, ‘so I will do for my servants’ sake, and not destroy them all. I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, and from Judah possessors of my mountains; my chosen shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.” (Isaiah 65:8-9)—————–
BOB JONES MEETS THE “BREAKTHROUGH REVIVAL” ANGEL FOR AMERICA . . .

Team Member wrote: Jeff Jansen in this photo is sharing an encounter that Bob Jones had on 3/11. In the encounter he saw an angel.
The angel said my name is breakthrough revival. The Lord has asigned me to America. The angel assisted in facilitating revival in Nigeria.
The angel said “I was in charge of removing resistance in Nigeria. I am here helping prepare America for the greatest revival America has ever seen.”
The angel said “I am here to assist those who are taking risk to bring the kingdom!”
Jeff says the next revival will flow through those who are moving with God to partner with him! Another great awakening is at the door for America!
The kingdom of God is right now aggressively advancing. Today around 10,000 people per hour will come to saving faith in Jesus Christ. Today, thousands will have an encounter with the Holy Spirit that will change their lives for ever. Healing is exploding around the globe as every disease and every condition is bowing to Jesus Christ. Furthermore every area of society is beginning to feel the affects of the rising sons and daughters of the King of kings, even though we are ju…st catching on to the expanded borders of our kingdom assignment. There is now no area of society where God and His kids can just be ignored. Goliath challenges are being taken on and slain by rising Davids all across this nation and all across the globe. These are those who refuse to view anything that man calls impossible as impossible with God. These are those who refuse to study Goliath or his armor but instead are studiers and growing experts in who God is and what He is doing.The greatest shame right now would be for any son or daughter of God to be neutralized by a false narrative that says we should be recoiling in fear and trembling because of any perceived challenge taking place. No Goliath is going to win. These are the greatest days ever to be alive. This is the Age of the Restoration of all things. The greatest Renaissance in the history of the world has just begun and before it is done it will carry an upgraded knowledge of God into every nook and cranny of society. Don’t be caught being a naysaying Scribe or Pharisee while Jesus is turning the world upside down. Arise out of the slumber of a distorted narrative of doom and gloom and Shine with the glorious light of kingdom solutions everywhere. This is our day. This is His day.

~The Joy Of The Lord~ Another One Of God’s Greatest Weapon’s
Could This Be The Answer To The Isis Crisis?
Deuteronomy 28:47-50 (AMP) “47 Because you did not serve the Lord your God with joyfulness of [mind and] heart [in gratitude] for the abundance of all [with which He had blessed you],
Therefore you shall serve your enemies whom the Lord shall send against you, in hunger and thirst, in nakedness and in want of all things; and He will put a yoke of iron upon your neck until He has destroyed you.
The Lord will bring a nation against you from afar, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flies, a nation whose language you shall not understand,
A nation of unyielding countenance who will not regard the person of the old or show favor to the young,”
The word for Joyfulness in Hebrew is :Joy Mirth,gladness, joy, gaity, pleasure, joy of God, glad result, happy issue…
Now this is the chapter on the blessings and the curses and right in the middle it says that if we do not serve the Lord with pleasure and gaity, that all of the curses will come upon us. You see we are living in a time that if we do not learn how to laugh, and be glad in the midst of our situations that we will be operating under a curse and the curse will over take us.
When I was a waitress in my early 20’s, I know that God was teaching me how to cope with a great amount of stress even then. The first few times I went in people would be so hateful about things ,the way that their food is cooked or how quick you were with their orders, and many times it wasn’t the fault of the waitress only bad management or cooks, and I would go home crying almost every night, until one day something rose up in me and just said “girl if you are going to work you are going to enjoy what you do and have fun with it or you are not going to survive this.”
So I would put on the biggest smile that I had and even if someone complained I would make light of it. I had a friend that I waited tables with and she and I would go in and laugh all night over some of the funny ways that people had. After this I never wanted to miss work. I made the best out of something that before had been a hardship.
Do Not Be Conformed To The Circumstances
The number one reason that we lose our joy is because we take things too personally and get offended at every little thing someone does to us. The Lord wants us to lighten up and not be so serious sometimes.
Rom 12:2 “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind,
If we are going to survive in this ever increasing darkness we are going to have to not allow it to conform us to it’s misery’s, but be transformed by the renewing of our thought patterns to line up with heaven!! The word conformed in this scripture in the Greek is: to conform one’s self to another’s patterns.” I am not going to conform my thinking and way of life to the news cast or what people think of me ,or any of the hundreds of circumstances that are going on in this world right now, but I will believe God when He said “Be of good cheer for I have overcome the world!”
Joy Is Being Who God Made You To Be
We can not conform ourselves to the way that others think we should be if we are going to have joy.This will always cause us to be depressed and forever steal our strength from us. You will never live up to the way that everyone wants you to be, so be genuine and just plain who you are!! You are unique and when the real you comes forth in what you were created to be, then it is a good thing because you are who God created you to be! Don’t let peoples opinion of you steal your joy! You are fearfully and wonderfully made and unique and God delights in you just the way that you are!
Smile because smiling helps the immune system to work better .When you smile immune function improves possibly because you are more relaxed. It also reduces endorphin’s, natural pain killers and serotonin. Together these three make us feel good.
Laughter ; Reduces the level of stress hormones like cortisol, epinephrine ( adrenaline) ,dopamine and growth Hormone. It also increases the level of health- enhancing hormones like endorphines, and neurotransmitters. Laughter increases the number of antibody-producing cells and enhances the effectiveness of T cells. All of this means a stronger immune system, as well as fewer physical effects of stress.
The Effect Of Laughter On Our Perspective
Prov 15:15 “All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.”
This scripture changed the way that I looked at my situation many years ago. I was going through great financial difficulty along with pain from hurt that people had caused in my life and losing my ministry because of a terrible divorce among other things. I found that if I just changed my perspective to God’s perspective and look at the situation with joyful expectancy that suddenly even though the situation hadn’t changed, that I had changed and could have a continual feast in the midst of my circumstances. You see even studies show that our response to stressful events can be altered by whether we view something as a threat or a challenge. Humor can give us a more lighthearted perspective and help us to view events as “challenges”thereby making them less threatening and more positive.
Prov 15:13 “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.”I have a friend that has been through so many devastating circumstances in her life that if I were to tell you, you would say “how is she still alive?” but for some reason God chose to put us together a long time ago and we can talk about the worst of situations and suddenly begin to make light of it!! We will say things like..”only you could get yourself into such a predicament!” Not taking it so serious but laughing and crying together, we seem to get through many of the tough times.
I also have beautiful sisters and friends here on Facebook now that make me laugh even when I am at my lowest and before long I am feeling much, much better about the whole situation. I also have a spiritual daughter that always finds ways to make me laugh when I am taking the situation too seriously. If you do not have people in your life like that you need to find them and just laugh together! Your whole perspective will change and you will look around you and think ”you know, I think I am going to make it, even in this turmoil!” I love my funny friends all of them…..
Many of us are sick out there because we have had too much depression and no joy.
Prov 15:13 “A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.”
You know God knows what He is doing and what is healing for his creation, but we always want to do things our way. The enemy uses this on us and tells us that if we do not worry about our situations that we do not love people. That is not God’s way. This is also true of intercessors. The enemy will try to wear you out physically and emotionally by thinking you are doing God a favor by carrying this great big weight on your shoulders but in God’s plan it is just the opposite In Neh.8:2 it says: “for the joy of the LORD is your strength.” If that is my strength, then this Joy has to be “kept up” so to speak for you to have strength in the battle.
Let’s face it if we are in depression and oppression we are listening to another voice. We are in fear and not faith and God says in Luke 18:7-8 (AMP)
And will not [our just] God defend and protect and avenge His elect (His chosen ones), who cry to Him day and night? Will He defer them and [b]delay help on their behalf? I tell you, He will defend and protect and avenge them speedily. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find [persistence in] faith on the earth?”
He is saying that when He comes, will he find a people trusting him and rejoicing that “It Is Finished” or will he find people sitting around in fear and depression and whose “hearts are failing them for looking on the things of the earth? “ God is so confident of His own word and so should we be so much that it will cause us to laugh at the enemies plots
Psalm 37:12-13 (AMP) “The wicked plot against the [uncompromisingly] righteous (the upright in right standing with God); they gnash at them with their teeth.
The Lord laughs at [the wicked], for He sees that their own day [of defeat] is coming.”
I dare you to throw back your head and laugh at the enemy right now,because all of his rantings and all of the things that he throws at you is not going to work!” Focusing on the future of what God says will happen to your enemy in the end will keep up your joy level! As the singer Carmen use to say “When he reminds you of your past…remind him of his future!!”
Dread Will Cause You To Lose Your Joy.
Dread is fear of the future.. “Oh I dread going through this or I dread going to work or I dread this or that. This mentality will steal your Joy before something even happens! Know this….that whatever you are getting ready to do, God will be with you in it! Just face your fear and know that this to shall pass and that joy comes in the morning!! Your attitude about it will change if you have a “Getter Done” attitude.
Trying To Figure Out Everyone’s Place And Situations (Being In Control) Will Cause You To Lose Your Joy.
Philippians 4:6-7 (AMP) “Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. And God’s peace [shall be yours, that [tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”
Once I was the prayer Group leader and Bible Study teacher at a certain church and I would see what “I THOUGHT” people should be doing and so I would lay and cry out and well, mostly fret about who should go where and what they should be doing and so on….and one night I was having this dream and I saw mobile like the ones that hang over a baby crib and their were people that I had been praying about hanging from the mobile and God was controlling the other end of it with His hand. All at once I heard Him say in a really loud voice “ I set them in the body as I will!” and then He said “Don’t you worry about it!” Then He threw back His head and laughed really big and I woke up with this laughter coming out of the pit of my being and He was laughing through me! I was free of trying to “Figure it all out” God is in control not you!
Psalm 127:2 (AMP) “It is vain for you to rise up early, to take rest late, to eat the bread of [anxious] toil—for He gives [blessings] to His beloved in sleep. Some of us are sick in our bodies from trying to “take it all on our shoulders”
Ephesians 3:20 (AMP) “Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]”
He is able to do even more that you can imagine if you will just have a Joyful expectant heart!! The curses come because we worry ,the sickness comes because we fret and it truly affects our bodies and then we become unfit for God’s use because we have tried to “Do It Ourselves” STOP! Let go and throw back your head and laugh at the enemy! His day is coming! begin to rejoice in what the word already says is going to happen to your enemies!
Philippians 4:8-9 (AMP) “For the rest, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is worthy of reverence and is honorable and seemly, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and lovable, whatever is kind and winsome and gracious, if there is any virtue and excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think on and weigh and take account of these things [fix your minds on them]. Practice what you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, and model your way of living on it, and the God of peace (of untroubled, undisturbed well-being) will be with you.”
Wake up everyday and instead of worrying say ;Psalms 118:24 “This is the day which the LORD hath made; I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Choose Life! Choose Joy! Choose to throw back your head and laugh at the enemy! Hey, you have eternity!

From the “Great Distractor” by Jo Ellen Stevens
http://spiritfuel.me/the-great-distractor/
THE GREAT DISTRACTOR
1Cr 7:29-30: “But this I say, brethren, the time [is] short: it remaineth, that both they that have wives be as though they had none; 1Cr 7:30 And they that weep, as though they wept not; and they that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and they that buy, as though they possessed not;”
Phl 3:13-14 “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but [this] one thing [I do], forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
We are coming upon a season of crossing over into the fullness of our destinies being fulfilled in Christ as we come to the end of 2013. We have come to realize that our enemy is defeated and are coming into a time of decreeing from a place of the rest of God! We are beginning to rebuild the old waste places. Now more than ever, we must be aware of the enemies tactics anew. If he can not talk us into giving up and he sees those that are pressing forward, he will use all that he has left to stop this from happening. I call it “the great distraction tactic.”
In Nehemiah’s day he went back to Jerusalem to rebuild the wall. He was met with many distractions from the enemy. They came to the wall daily to tell him that it was useless to try and rebuild that wall. They sounded official, and used fear tactics, and they shamed them, and they tried to make Nehemiah feel that they were not able..Sound familiar? The thing of it is, that this never worked with Nehemiah, because he always kept his focus on the building of the wall. That was the task that God had set before him, and he would not be deterred.
David said in Psa 57:7 “My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is fixed: I will sing and give praise.” David had to fix his heart on what he was meant to do. He was to be the great psalmist of his day, and he was met with more than most of us could bear, but he fixed his heart.. This will be the key to overcoming in this season. As Nehemiah fixed his heart on the building of the wall, and David on building the Tabernacle (24 hour praise and worship) we must fix our hearts on what God has for us to do in this season.
Our enemy is a defeated foe, and Nehemiah knew that Sanballat and Tobiah had no authority over him, but that did not stop them from coming to bring distraction to Nehemiah’s plans. KNOW THIS! IF THE ENEMY KNOWS THAT YOU KNOW THAT HE IS DEFEATED, AND THAT HE HAS BEEN STRIPPED OF HIS POWER, THEN HE WILL USE ANYTHING THAT HE CAN TO STOP YOU FROM REACHING AND FINISHING YOUR PURPOSE IN THIS LIFE! HIS ONLY WEAPON IS DISTRACTION AND WHATEVER IT IS THAT WILL SWAY YOU FROM YOUR PURPOSE. Give him no attention!! He is a defeated foe!! If you give him no attention he will flee, and as you submit yourself to God and keep on doing what you are called to do you will eventually reap if you faint not!! Jam 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
Neh 6:1-5 “Now it came to pass, when Sanballat, and Tobiah, and Geshem the Arabian, and the rest of our enemies, heard that I had builded the wall, and [that] there was no breach left therein; (though at that time I had not set up the doors upon the gates;) That Sanballat and Geshem sent unto me, saying, Come, let us meet together in [some one of] the villages in the plain of Ono. But they thought to do me mischief. And I sent messengers unto them, saying, I [am] doing a great work, so that I cannot come down: why should the work cease, whilst I leave it, and come down to you? Yet they sent unto me four times after this sort; and I answered them after the same manner. Then sent Sanballat his servant unto me in like manner the fifth time with an open letter in his hand; Wherein [was] written, It is reported among the heathen, and Gashmu saith [it, that] thou and the Jews think to rebel: for which cause thou buildest the wall, that thou mayest be their king, according to these words.”
You see Nehemiah had his heart fixed on his purpose and even when he was in the final stages of it, he discerned that these who came with an official letter (Bad decrees) had come to stop what he and God had started. The enemy saw that there were no breaches in the wall. The enemy is seeing that there are no breaches in between many in the body of Christ right now. He wants to get your focus off of our unity and onto his little petty messes that he is making so that he can form a crack in our oneness and then we will spend all of our time fixing the little messes.. Sgs 2:15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines [have] tender grapes. It is the “little foxes” that try and spoil the vine. The enemy knows that if he can take your focus off of your purpose to have to clean up these little messes that he has made, then you will not fulfill your destiny.
I had a dream once that my friend and I were bringing some prisoners out of a house and taking them to safety. We were walking them across this rickety bridge like you see in the movies, and as we were leading them there were these flower pots on the steps that she was distracted by. I kept telling her to look forward, but these flower pots had mens faces that had hurt her in the past, and she couldn’t take her eyes off of them long enough to get those prisoners out. You see they were keeping her from her destiny of freeing these women.
Some of you have been delayed for years, because of these little foxes…I am telling you fix your heart on your purpose and on your destiny!! There are people waiting on you to set them free!! He will come to you especially if you have a gift of exhortation or mercy with those that will suck the life out of you, when others are awaiting your gifting to help them. Then if you figure it out they will accuse you of being a bad Christian, and then finally accuse you to others, and try and ruin your reputation as a minister of the Lord, delaying your purpose. This is where fixing your heart on what God has called you to do comes in. It is called obedience! Obedience is key in this hour.
Some of you have never learned that after so long even Jesus said to kick off the dust! Jesus here was telling them how to not be attached to things or those that would not receive His message. Luke 9:1 “Then he called his twelve disciples together, and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. Luke 9:2-6 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. And he said unto them, Take nothing for [your] journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece. And whatsoever house ye enter into, there abide, and thence depart. And whosoever will not receive you, when ye go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet for a testimony against them. And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where Not everyone will like you when you obey God! Get use to it! Jesus said it in Mat 10:25 “It is enough For the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more [shall they call] them of his household?”
It is time to press past the flower pots and stop being distracted by whatever represents that flower pot to you! It is the season where obedience is key to getting the wall built that God has told you to build, or that music that you are to play, or that city that you are to take, that church you are to build. Fixing our heart will be the key to it. It is the key to the great obsession that is in your hearts! The enemy is just a distraction from the fullness of what God has called you, and from you bringing in your harvest. “Press on my child, Look straight forward, do not look at their faces.”
Do not be distracted by all the little messes that entangle you and try and trap you! Do not be distracted by those that would malign you, and say evil things about you!! Press on to the high calling which is in Christ Jesus! Your enemy is a defeated foe! Rejoice in my victory that has been given to you, and go forward despising the shame, and hating the sin that entraps my people, and those in the world. Rise up and bring my light in the face of great darkness! Rise up and look past all of the distractions of the enemy! The world is in darkness and awaits you oh manifest sons of God!

10/29/14
I posted this back on June 30th on Spirit Fuel and I believe and feel that we need to revisit it.. It is the time for the double anointing.. Be Blessed!!
The Time Of The 2’s And Double Anointings
On June 22, there was a great release of prophetic Revelation that was loosed and a shift in the heavenlies. The last couple of weeks I have been in my car and both times a pair of Doves flew out in front of my car and I almost ran into them they were so close. The first time they were white which I have never seen in Indiana although they may be here but I have not seen them. I immediately knew that this was prophetic and began to ask the Lord. He spoke that this was a time of the double portion anointing of the Holy Spirit and that there would be many things that we would begin to see that would happen or come in 2’s. He is also saying that this is the time of
Isaiah 22:22 (CJB) ” I will place the key of David’s house on his shoulder; no one will shut what he opens;no one will open what he shuts.”
The Key To David’s House Was Intimacy
The key to David’s house was Intimacy with God! David set up the Tabernacle which was an open tent with 24 hour worship! It caused them to win every battle because God inhabited their worship and Psalms 24 says that if those that are the Gates lift up their head that the king of Glory will come in and all of the host of heaven with Him! As our worship is intensifying in this season because of desperation for our God, He is manifesting in our gatherings like never before and we are beginning to see battles that we go through seem less intense because as He inhabits our praises He inhabits us and fights our battles for us! Through this many are entering into the Rest of God as they begin to see that the work has been finished before the foundation of the world and sitting down in their heavenly position with Christ.We are now gaining new perspective from that position seeing it from His!
This is the season not only for Isaiah 22:22 but also Amos 9:11-13 (CJB) “When that day comes, I will raise up the fallen sukkah of David. I will close up its gaps, raise up its ruins and rebuild it as it used to be,so that Isra’el can possess what is left of Edom and of all the nations bearing my name,”says Adonai, who is doing this. “The days will come,” says Adonai,“when the plowman will overtake the reaper and the one treading grapes the one sowing seed. Sweet wine will drip down the mountains, and all the hills will flow with it.”
As we continue to intensify in our passion for Him, He will cause us to possess ( Edom ) which is the Arab nations or the sons of Esau. This also will be the time when we will see our prayers accelerate to the point that we will no sooner get it out of our mouth than we will see the answer! We will now be “Stepping up into new levels of ministry, and in our personal walk with the Lord! Double doors will be opened up and God will multiply our seed to go forward as we step out with the double anointing that will be upon us….. Glory to His name!!

The Raging Cloud
By Bobby Conner
November 1, 2014
In a prophetic dream I was shown a tiny cloud on the horizon. The Lord Jesus stated in an urgent tone. “Warn My people to avoid this dangerous, raging cloud!”
I was totally shocked at the alarm in His voice. I questioned “Lord how can this be such a dangerous cloud when it is so small and appears harmless?” He answered, “This cloud has the potential to devastate and steal every spiritual blessing from My people.”
I inquired, “Lord, what is this cloud?” He quickly replied, “The cloud of doubt!” What had appeared so insignificant now became of utmost importance. When I asked the Lord, how we can avoid and defeat this cloud of doubt, He offered the insights which follow:
Stay Focused on Christ Jesus
This cloud of doubt is most effective when allowed to penetrate our mind. If allowed, it will erode and erase all the promises of God in our lives (see Isaiah 26:3-4). A vivid example of this is Israel’s response to what they saw with their natural eyes in the Promised Land. The people allowed their natural vision to overrule what God had spoken.
So they brought the Israelites an evil report of the land which they had scouted out, saying, The land through which we went to spy it out is a land that devours its inhabitants. And all the people that we saw in it are men of great stature.
There we saw the Nephilim [or giants], the sons of Anak, who come from the giants; and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. (Numbers 13:32-33)
What the Israelite spies saw with their natural eyes quickly erased what God had promised—what they were asked to see through the eyes of faith. God had told them, Take the land! It is yours! Doubt entered in, however, and they returned, defeated by their own choices and actions of unbelief. As the Israelites perceived themselves, so did the inhabitants of the land perceive them.
Remember, as a person thinks within his heart, so is he. The Israelites perceived themselves weak—and thus their foe saw them as weak also. Doubt arose. Whenever doubt and unbelief cloud our vision, we can lose our inheritance. Doubt kept the people of God from obtaining their inheritance and promise for more than 40 years!
God Himself had declared and decreed that the land was theirs. Not only was the land their possession, but it was a land flowing with milk and honey. The land had great provision in store for them. When they saw the giants, however, every word of God’s precious promises fell to the wayside. They chose to base their reality on what they saw rather than basing their reality on the promises of God. Once they saw the giants—and once they submitted themselves to fear—every word of God was forgotten.
How can we avoid this same disaster of doubt? One method is to quickly and forcefully, without hesitation, rebuke and renounce any and all thoughts that arise to oppose the Word of God.
For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons.
For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds, [Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One),
Being in readiness to punish every [insubordinate for his] disobedience, when your own submission and obedience [as a church] are fully secured and complete. (2 Corinthians 10:3-6)
In this very familiar passage of scripture we discover some secrets to overcoming the cloud of doubt.
And in the fourth watch [between 3:00—6:00 a.m.] of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea.
And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were terrified and said, It is a ghost! And they screamed out with fright.
But instantly He spoke to them, saying, Take courage! I Am! Stop being afraid!
And Peter answered Him, Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.
He said, Come! So Peter got out of the boat and walked on the water, and he came toward Jesus.
But when he perceived and felt the strong wind, he was frightened, and as he began to sink, he cried out, Lord, save me [from death]!
Instantly Jesus reached out His hand and caught and held him, saying to him, O you of little faith, why did you doubt?
And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
And those in the boat knelt and worshiped Him, saying, Truly You are the Son of God! (Matthew 14:25-33, Amplified Bible)
What an awesome exploit! Peter was a mere man, walking on the water! One point to ponder is this: if we fully follow the commands of Christ, we can overcome all limitations, even the laws of gravity. Peter was standing and walking on the word of the Son of God, who asked him to “Come!” What instigated Peter’s sinking under the waves? He turned his eyes away from Jesus toward the natural situation and circumstances. Peter began to focus on the winds and the waves, and opened the door to doubt—doubt that erased from Peter’s heart the very fact that he was walking on water, making his way to Christ, standing on the Word of God. But Peter’s advancement was suddenly halted. He was no longer walking at and upon the command of Christ—and was in need of rescue.
What lessons do we learn from this powerful experience between Peter and Jesus? Do not let your surroundings and the challenging events you are facing keep you from holding on to the command of Christ! Keep your focus on Christ, not the adversity occurring about you. As we keep our heart and mind focused upon Christ Jesus, our heart and mind are filled with abiding peace (see Isaiah 26:3-4).
Doubt is a dark, evil womb that gives birth to unbelief and fear—and both will rob you of the blessing of God. The fearful and unbelieving are cast into hell (see Revelation 21:8).
Doubt and fear have devastating effects on our prayer life:
Only it must be in faith that he asks with no wavering (no hesitating, no doubting). For the one who wavers (hesitates, doubts) is like the billowing surge out at sea that is blown hither and thither and tossed by the wind.
For truly, let not such a person imagine that he will receive anything [he asks for] from the Lord,
[For being as he is] a man of two minds (hesitating, dubious, irresolute), [he is] unstable and unreliable and uncertain about everything [he thinks, feels, decides]. (James 1:6-8)
Christ reveals that doubt will hinder answered prayer. At the disciples stand shocked at the dried, dead fig tree, Christ states:
And Jesus, replying, said to them, Have faith in God [constantly].
Truly I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, Be lifted up and thrown into the sea! and does not doubt at all in his heart but believes that what he says will take place, it will be done for him.
For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to you, and you will [get it]. (Mark 11:22-24)
Jesus reminds us that if our prayers are to be powerful and effective, they must be spoken in steadfast faith. Notice the phrase, “and does not doubt at all in his heart but believes that what he says will take place, it will be done for him.”
Only believe! All things are possible—only believe!
Antidote for Doubt
What exactly is an antidote? I appreciate this definition: a substance that counteracts poison. What is the antidote for doubt? The best antidote for the dark cloud of doubt is the radiant light of God’s Word. Faith is the force with which we fight against doubt—and faith comes by hearing the Word.
The supernatural power of God will drive away doubt. Note that John the Baptist in prison was immersed in the dark cloud of doubt. Doubt silenced this great voice for God! But also notice what Jesus communicates to him: declare to John that the blind see, the deaf hear, the dumb speak, the dead are raised. And the poor have the gospel message presented to them. (Matthew 11:1-3)
Paul and Silas in prison drove back the dark cloud of doubt with shouts of praise and prayers of adoration.
Praise and thanksgiving, with an attitude of gratitude, can transform any situation!
The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me? (Psalms 118:6)
What time I am afraid, I will have confidence in and put my trust and reliance in You.
(Psalms 56:3)
Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, turn from doubt as quickly as possible—don’t let the enemy gain one foothold in your mind or heart. Meditate daily on Psalm 27, planting God’s precious promises deep within your heart. In prayer and meditation, declare these words as true over your life and the lives of your loved ones. These precious promises of God will prepare you for adverse circumstances!
Psalm 27
[A Psalm] of David
1 The Lord is my Light and my Salvation—whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked, even my enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though a host encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; though war arise against me, [even then] in this will I be confident.
4 One thing have I asked of the Lord, that will I seek, inquire for, and [insistently] require: that I may dwell in the house of the Lord [in His presence] all the days of my life, to behold and gaze upon the beauty [the sweet attractiveness and the delightful loveliness] of the Lord and to meditate, consider, and inquire in His temple.
5 For in the day of trouble He will hide me in His shelter; in the secret place of His tent will He hide me; He will set me high upon a rock.
6 And now shall my head be lifted up above my enemies round about me; in His tent I will offer sacrifices and shouting of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry aloud; have mercy and be gracious to me and answer me!
8 You have said, Seek My face [inquire for and require My presence as your vital need]. My heart says to You, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek, inquire for, and require [of necessity and on the authority of Your Word].
9 Hide not Your face from me; turn not Your servant away in anger, You Who have been my help! Cast me not off, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation!
10 Although my father and my mother have forsaken me, yet the Lord will take me up [adopt me as His child].
11 Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a plain and even path because of my enemies [those who lie in wait for me].
12 Give me not up to the will of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen up against me; they breathe out cruelty and violence.
13 [What, what would have become of me] had I not believed that I would see the Lord’s goodness in the land of the living!
14 Wait and hope for and expect the Lord; be brave and of good courage and let your heart be stout and enduring. Yes, wait for and hope for and expect the Lord.

Cindy McGill: “We Are in Rapid Acceleration: Prepare For Take Off”
From the desk of Steve Shultz:
Cindy and I have done conferences together and I’ve had her in my TV studio to talk about her life and ministry.
In my life, she is THE PERFECT EXAMPLE of “practicing what you preach!” She lives her life and ministry before God. God “bends His ear” toward Cindy when she ministers and prays.
For that reason, when she shares what God is telling her is coming next, I for one – LISTEN!
Here is a statement by Cindy that is filled with hope:
We are entering the days of the greatest harvest of souls we have ever seen. People are starving to have the Truth. We have an assignment and orders from Headquarters. That is our focus and that is our destiny.
Dig into this word and ask God “what your part is” in what you are reading here…
Enjoy!

Prepare For Takeoff
My husband recently had a dream where we were on a type of spacecraft that looked like a pontoon boat. The sides were open and it only had a roof. This craft was full of people and without warning it took off, straight up in the air with rocket speed. The impact of this rapid acceleration was so intense that one pilot had to stand on the other one’s shoulders to maneuver the aircraft upwards, avoiding obstacles in the atmosphere.
Interpretation: The new structure has open sides and the craft represents a ministry without walls that is infinite for expansion. It is a horizontal invitation to reach out and take hold of people all around us. The top is God’s covering.
We are in a rapid acceleration now. This waiting is over and this is a fulfillment of time. Things we have been pondering in our hearts are getting ready to be realized. I know we have all heard this before but it really is happening. The stage has been set behind the curtain and we are now waiting for things to be revealed.
Keeping Foresight in the Midst of the Storm
We can’t lose our vision and stray from our purpose when a storm approaches. We have a destination to reach and a job to do when we get there. Just because we might experience a few turbulent moments doesn’t mean we are not going to arrive at the prepared place for us. (Photo via flickr)
I know there have been many messages about some terrifying things ahead. I’m not denying for a second that things could get seemingly out of control and bumpy, but GOD IS IN CONTROL and that doesn’t discount the assignment we have been given and the job we are equipped to do.
We are entering the days of the greatest harvest of souls we have ever seen. People are starving to have the Truth. We have an assignment and orders from Headquarters. That is our focus and that is our destiny.
Explosion of Birth
I had a dream a few years back were I was going to deliver a baby. The medical team had covered the walls of the delivery room because they knew it would be an explosive birth. The surgical staff had given me a “solution” to induce labor but it wasn’t working. There is a timing for a spiritual birth to occur and man cannot manipulate it to happen before its time.
The fact that it was an “explosive” birth tells me there are many different parts to this new birth. When something explodes, it breaks into many pieces. I feel we are being prepared to handle many projects all at once, out of the same womb. These projects will be connected to each other but will have their own identity.
This next year will birth many, many ministries that are essential to ushering in His Kingdom. Differing from one another, they will all come from the same Kingdom and will have specific functions. Inventions and new discoveries will breathe new expressions from God’s Kingdom. These new births are fused with power, strategy and creativity.
Don’t Be Afraid of the New
God has got this. He is the Author and Finisher of the work He has started in all of us. Over my many years of ministry, I finally surrendered to the fact that: He knows better than I do about His Kingdom, His ministry, His government, His process, His alignment, His expression and His way of communicating with all of us.
Our posture is to be secure in HIM, and He will direct our paths. Perfect love always casts out fear and solid surrender keeps our feet from slipping. (Photo via geograph)
When we pastored churches and faced challenges concerning people and their lives, I remember God speaking to me very clearly, “Cindy, you didn’t die for these people, I did, and you didn’t save them, I did.”
What a tremendous relief I felt. I was not to do God’s job; I was just to do His will– and that was to be a daughter of the King. I am God’s daughter before His minister, and the ministry is an overflow of my solid relationship with Him.
God is doing new things. We just get to “follow the Leader.” Every day, embrace His mercies and every day take His burden and we’ll all be good. We are complete in Him and nowhere else.

The Lord says,
“Adjust your apparel according to the seasons that I bring you into. Make wise choices in all that you do. Make connections with people who are spiritually stronger than yourself, who could mentor you and advise you. Connect yourself with those who will compliment you and encourage you. Never allow those who are living in compromise to pull you down to their level. Many people don’t understand the place that I am taking you to, neither could they relate to that spiritual level. Do not fear the unfamiliar garments of righteousness and holiness that I am clothing you in. Don’t allow old mindsets to resurface, but allow Me to continue to renew your mind. Continue to clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience.”

Key Prophecy for NOW: Anne Tate, Chuck Pierce, Michelle Hadley, Keith Pierce, Rebekah Faubion
Our service on Sunday morning was just amazing. Following our Convergencia Hispana gathering on Friday and Saturday, the sound of the nations was released during our worship and the portals of revelation of Heaven were opened. The Spirit of God began to declare as Brian Kooiman gave a tongue for interpretation.
“This is a season where you’re going higher than you ever imagined. I am taking you higher and higher and higher and higher; you have only begun to glimpse where I’m taking you. Raise your sights! Raise your eyes! Look at Me! I Am taking you higher and higher.
“There are certain things you can’t see where you presently are. Until you begin to become buoyant in faith with Me, you will not be able to see what I would have you see. So keep going higher, and you’ll get to a place where you can breathe only by the Spirit. I Am taking My people to a place where they will require the oxygen of My Spirit to begin to move into the thoughts that I have. Vision is coming to you in a new place.“
Song of Spirit:
I know you’re tired, but come on higher anyway
I know the battle has been weary, but come up higher anyway
I Am giving you an aerial view
I Am giving you an aerial view
You are going to see things that you’ve never seen before
I am going to download strategies that you didn’t have before! (Photo of Convergencia Hispana gathering via Glory of Zion Ministries)
“Lift Your Eyes! You’ve looked at the roots and the trunk of the tree, but you’ve not seen what’s in the top of the tree. I have things hidden that have been captured there that only you can begin to gather, by coming higher. This is a day that you must ask Me to bring you into a new place. Some of you will fall from this high place, but do not fear. There will still be life in you, and you will rise again.”
Shatece McLeod then gave another tongue for interpretation:
“Today is the day I come with an injection of My holiness. The injection of My holiness will go into your blood veins in a new way, and it will activate the DNA inside where I have been received by you. Get ready for this injection, because all that receive this infusion will receive an open Heaven.
“You will receive the authority to deal with the disturbance in the second airways. So get ready, get ready, get ready because when I, I Am, when I, I Am, comes upon the scene and you begin to fall upon Me and rest, you will see Me released to go before you.
“I Am raising up a standard of righteousness among you this hour. Many of you have been confused of the purpose of My grace. My grace is not here to let you wallow in your short-comings and your fear and your lack. My Grace is here to raise you up to the standard of My favor, of My excellence, of My purpose in this world. My grace is not for you to wallow in.
“Get out of your wallowing! Get out of your mud pit! Get up and stand! If you cannot stand today in this standard that I Am raising, then you come and you lay your face at My altar and you put down everything else; I will raise a new standard before you. (Photo of Convergencia Hispana gathering via Glory of Zion Ministries)
“Your shins are stuck in the mud and you’ve been striving to get through that hard place that you’ve been in. Part of that place is from your making; other parts are because the enemy has come in like a flood and muddied your path. But I am going to interject an anointing down through your feet that will cause you to now walk through that which has bogged you down. If you will change your mind from how you see My grace, then My grace will interject and fill you, energize and move you forward.”
May each of you be thankful for all that He is doing in your life!
Blessings,

WALK IN THE LIGHT AND YOU WILL BE CHANGED~
I just woke up a from an encounter in the Lord and I saw Him taking a person and as His light hit them it became like a laser beam hitting them and carving them every second of every day! And I heard Him say…”What you are now is only a template of what I am continually making you to be, and as you walk in the light as I am in the light you are becoming new every moment of every day. I am continually causing you to come closer to being like my Son as you walk in that light and this walking requires your faith that works by love…..
1 John 1:7 “(AMP)
“But if we [really] are living and walking in the Light,as He [Himself] is in the Light, we have [true, unbroken] fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses (removes) us from all sin and guilt [keeps us cleansed from sin in all its forms and manifestations].”

Wear It Anyway:
“Joseph was given a coat of many colors by his father to wear and he knew that when he wore it that it made his brothers jealous but he wore it anyway! Why? because His Father gave it to him! He wore it knowing that he would be persecuted. Knowing that every time he put that coat on he was talked badly about by his brothers who should have loved him the most!
Many of you have been given an anointing a gift and a mantle to wear and you have taken it off to keep people that are jealous of you happy but I hear the Lord saying.. “You rise up and wear that coat anyway,because your Daddy gave it to you! He wants you to wear it and wear it well! Don’t worry about your jealous brothers because one day God may use that very anointing to set them free and even feed them in a famine!” Glory to God!
Genesis 45:4 “Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.” When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt! 5 And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you.“

Rest In My Love
“Not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit says the Lord! Zechariah 4:6
Rest in My Love as Grace propels you forward in this life!
“I’ve promised you much and I’ve shown you your inheritance. You see un-level ground in front of you yet, I have set a path before you that is straight. Watch and see as I smooth out the dips in the road. Some of you are experiencing feelings of unrest and unease. ~Let Me quieten you with My Love. You see the obstacles that appear to block My plans for your life, yet I am working in and through you at this time- amid these obstacles. My Glory is and will be revealed in and through you in greater measure. Nothing can stop you walking into destiny as you remain rested in Me.””
“I am Love and I have made you a vessell of My Love. There is an outworking and the process of time. Your flesh wants to push and strive and even at times wants to kick down doors to your destiny. Yet, I say, rest in My love. Spend time with Me and wait upon Me. In these times of solidtude and quieteness, I will give you strategies and an empowerment by the wind of My Spirit”
“Your position In Me. -This is your qualification! You will inherit what I have promised you.”
“As you rest ~ not being passive, but secure in My love, I will advance you and propel you into the promises I have for you at lightening speed. You will see an acceleration that will advance you with My favor. Doors will open at the appointed time and you will be astonished at the ease in which I fulfill the dreams and visions that I’ve planted in your heart. Have I not said it will come to pass that which I predestined for you? I’ve shown you My kingdom and your inheritance. Simply rest and trust.”

12/1/2014 Jo Ellen Stevens
(2015) This Is A Time Of Rest (Schmita) To Receive Greater Revelation
“Then Adonai answered Iyov out of the storm:
“Who is this, darkening my plans
with his ignorant words?
Stand up like a man, and brace yourself;
I will ask questions; and you, give the answers!
“Where were you when I founded the earth?
Tell me, if you know so much.
Do you know who determined its dimensions
or who stretched the measuring line across it?
On what were its bases sunk,
or who laid its cornerstone,
when the morning stars sang together,
and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” ~Job 38 :1-7 (CJB)~
I am bringing you this from the book of Job because I had a dream the other night that God was giving much revelation to many people in this hour but the church as a whole was so busy “Talking” and thinking that they “Knew” all of the answers that they were not “Hearing” the powerful revelation and keys to the universe that God was trying to get them to listen to.
He has some powerful things that He is trying to speak in this hour but some are not recognizing it because we “have done it this way” forever,but the Lord has been trying to get some peoples attention in this hour so that he can get them to “Be still and know that he is God” After all John was exiled to the isle of Patmos when he received the Revelation….. David was running from Saul, Daniel was in a land of his captivity… Some of my greatest revelations have come during times that I was snowed in and could not go anywhere or when I was just not able to keep up with the things going on in my life because of one thing or another. I pray that we will be obedient in this hour and hear Him… He is speaking are you listening?.. Oh and yes, He is speaking through those that you would of never listened to before..
Job 33:15-18 (CJB) “God speaks once, even twice,
and still the hearer misses the point.
“In a dream, in a vision at night,
when slumber falls upon people,
as they sleep in their beds,
he opens people’s ears
and seals the matter with a warning,
to turn a person away from his action
and protect a man from pride,
so that he will keep himself away from the pit
and from perishing by the sword.”
Time to stop fighting the fact that He is bringing some to a stand still, so that you can hear new revelation in this hour! Some of it will heal diseases and change Nations….. It is time to cease your endless chatter for the sake of “doing something” and hear Him… This is what Schmita is all about.. God wants to change the world through you but you must Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church!”
Your circumstances right now may just be putting you in a place to hear God and bring a deeper revelation of Him to the world.. it is also a time of debt cancellation. One of the reasons for this is God is trying to get His people to trust Him when he says stop and press into me and as you obey .I will bring the finances that it takes to meet your needs.”
God told the children of Israel to not store the Manna on the seventh day in the wilderness but cease activity and when they did it would go bad anyway. He was testing them to see if they would depend on Him only! This is a time when He is preparing us to go into the land filled with milk and honey where we will live in houses we did not build and eat fruit that we did not grow. It is the time when the wealth of the wicked will come to the just! Oh He is just trying to get us to stop and hear right now!! Glory to God!!
Hebrews 4:9-11 (AMP) “So then, there is still awaiting a full and complete Sabbath-rest reserved for the [true] people of God; For he who has once entered [God’s] rest also has ceased from [the weariness and pain] of human labors, just as God rested from those labors [peculiarly His own. Let us therefore be zealous and exert ourselves and strive diligently to enter that rest………”
Arise shine! JStevens

Dr. Mark T. Barclay:
I remembered asking the Lord, “What is this? What is this massive, earth-consuming, bright cloud?”
The Lord answered me and said, “Oh, this is My glory. This is the glory cloud that I showed My prophet Isaiah (Isa. 61:1-2). This is what I promised, that My glory will fill the whole earth.”
“Well,” I asked, “what is inside the cloud?”
“It is filled with the greatest miracles humans have ever seen. It is filled with healing for every disease, and a cure for every sickness. It is power to overcome sin and filth—to receive the truth and reject error, heresy and doctrines of demons. It is a full manifestation of My Spirit. It is the full anointing of Jesus Christ and more, much more.”
—-
I saw people in this vision, just like before with the cloud of darkness. Many, many people were running into it and almost frolicking in it. It was like my first response—too bright to behold, and then I wanted to run into it. There were those who seemed to want to pull away from this glory cloud.
“Lord, who will enter into this great glory of God and enjoy this awesome power?” I asked.
“Those who have a pure heart and clean hands,” the Lord answered. “They are the ones who will escape the horrible vacuum of the evil, dark cloud and be consumed with My glory. I will require you to tell these things to My people at an appointed time.”
Now is that time! As I travel the world over, I see both of these manifestations happening. In fact, I see them beginning to intensify. Sometimes I say that both God and Satan are having a revival among men. We will now see more and more people running to each cloud, causing a great gulf or divide. Could this be the separation of sheep and goats, or the separation of wheat and tares?

~YOU ARE BEING PREPARED TO PARTNER WITH PAPA~http://spiritfuel.me/jo-ellen-stevensyou-are-being-prepared-to-partner-with-papa-i-have-a-plan-past-the-pain/
Yesterday I saw a person on a trail walking in their calling but they could no longer see the light that was leading them to the breakthrough that they were walking toward for another person that was standing between them and the breakthrough! It was as if they were totally focused on this person so that it kept them from seeing the light that was going to lead them out of the darkness and the Lord said “I will have no other God’s before me. The person you have focused on has you stuck there! “You must put me first and the light that is trying to shine on your path will become clear and you will get to your destination and breakthrough will be yours!
Arise Shine!<3
~Kick Him OUT!!!~
Once while casting a devil out of a woman, I was in the middle of it when suddenly after speaking in a man’s voice to me and screaming at the top of her lungs in the most blood curdling scream you could ever imagine. she stopped and looked almost normal for a second and said in this meek and mild little voice “I thought I was delivered” It actually played with my mind for a minute because I thought “Well if I say she isn’t delivered then I am not speaking …faith” and then I thought “No she is not because I can still feel the presence of evil” So I began to doubt what I was doing was right. It is time to trust your discernment!
I am here to tell you that this is exactly how a spirit operates. Stay on task until the Spirit brings you peace that it is accomplished! Do not allow that Spirit to get you to feel that you are doing something wrong by standing up to this evil that is in that person. It only blurs the matter and gives the spirit more time to collect its next strategy and keep a person bound! They are defeated by us knowing that we know our authority and knowing that the word is truth! KICK THEM OUT OF THEIR PLACE! You have the high ground because you have been given that authority!
Arise Shine! Jo Ellen Stevens

“Today It Is Time To Define Your Assignment!”
The Lord said to define your assignment right now and know that anything else is simply a distraction and should be treated as such! Then stay focused. The warfare is intense and this is a part of the attack. It seems like you are in confusion right now and it is because this attack from Jezebel has made the lines blur.
This Spirit will make you believe you are the unspiritual,unloving one until you define your assignment! Once y…ou define it clarity will come in this and you will be strengthened to stand up and take your authority over it. The Lord says “No matter how it may look or seem to you right now,make my word final authority in this matter! Use the discernment that I have given you and that you have gained in your past seasons and trust the God inside of you! I am drawing a line in the sand!” You will only get your footing back by doing the same. There is only one right in this situation and it is my truth!
Arse Shine! Jo Ellen Stevens

Prophetic Word: Call Forth the Angels of Revival
“O my dove, in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the cliffs, let me see your face, let me hear your voice; for your voice is sweet, and your face is lovely” (Song 2:14).
I looked up through the ceiling and saw a vast angelic army. Together the angels seemed like an ocean of brilliant, radiant light. It appeared that they were pulsing and trembling, just waiting to break in. They were waiting to be released by the call of the angel who had led me into the room. He was in great anguish because he earnestly desired to give the call they were all expecting, but he only said one sentence: “It is not quite time yet.”
I kept looking at the heavenly hosts. I could see ladders. I could see lamps. I could feel the anticipation and how strongly they wanted to break in. The angelic multitude was getting ready to burst in, not with a simple entrance, but with a flood of divine activity. Only this single angel held back the imminent breakthrough.
But it was not quite time for him to release them. There was something yet to be completed before the breakthrough could happen, though I was not shown what it was.
I noticed the Lord standing at the head of a man’s bed. I was able to feel His gaze of tender kindness and hear His gentle whisper over this man. He said, “So many people said they would do it, and they never did, but you really did it. You really did it.” The Lord’s affirming voice, affection and kindness to this man were due to his faithfulness in continual night and day prayer, even in the mundane things of life. This man did not seek fame and fortune; he stayed steady, lovesick for God and unoffended day by day.
A tear came from the corner of the Lord’s eye; He was deeply moved by this man’s faithfulness. The Lord looked at me and said, “We have heard many pray, ‘Take us up.’ Instead, tell the faithful ones, ‘Heaven is coming down. Heaven is breaking in.’
Call Forth the Angels of Revival
This is part of a dream I had back in 2007. At the time of this dream, I remember the Lord being so moved by someone who did not grow weary in the place of prayer through hard times, dry times or mundane day-to-day life.
Oh, how He loves our voice in every season. He loves our cries, our song. The God of the universe loves the sound of our little voice and prayers. And God is answering our little prayers. He is a big God that loves our little prayers. My “little” combined with God’s “big” is always His big.
Isn’t this amazing? He loves our sound. Our prayers matter. Revelation 5:8 tells us that the elders who are ever before the throne of God each hold a harp and bowl. The harp is a symbol of constant worship, and the golden bowl full of incense is the prayers of the saints. That is your voice. That is my voice. Our voice is ever before the throne of God. Prayers never die; they live on and on. Our voice is mixed with all of the prayers of the ages, with all of the prayers ever prayed. This fragrance lives on; our prayers arise continually before God, who reigns over the universe.
As I sit in the Healing Rooms—House of Prayer in Santa Maria, California (my new home)—I remember this dream I had years ago. I remember seeing the angelic host waiting for the time of great break-in and great breakthrough to be poured out on the earth. I know we have experienced seasons of revival and renewal. We have experienced periods of His presence in amazing ways with healing and salvation. But I saw a greater breaking in of heaven to the earth, and when I had this dream years ago, it was bigger and greater than anything I knew I had ever experienced or seen.
I have recently had another dream that I believe is a continuation of this first dream, for I was given instructions in this dream and told to cry out for help from the sanctuary. I was told to cry out for the “angels of revival.” And so I cry out and share this new dream with you, because God is listening.
And Then Heaven Will Come Down! What Goes Up Must Come Down!
I had a dream. I was told to call forth the “angels of revival.” I was told to call for them three times. So I put my hand up to my mouth and began to shout: “I call forth the angels of revival. I call forth the angels of revival. I call forth the angels of revival.” Suddenly, angels began to rise out of the mountains. Their bodies stood up out of the mountains. They were so huge.
Suddenly this host of heavenly beings—these Angels of Revival—all came together, and James Goll was right in the middle of them. The angels were bigger and larger than the largest and tallest human, standing head and shoulders above everyone and everything. James Goll was right in the middle of these heavenly beings. I looked at James, and I was thinking to myself, James, you are shining—are you in heaven now? In the dream, James knew my thoughts and he looked at me and said in his James voice, “No, I didn’t go up. Heaven has come down.”
These angels of revival were wearing golden robes that went down to their feet, and they had a cream-colored collar around their neck. They were shining and they were singing. This beautiful choir, these beautiful harmonies … I could see the vibrations of their tones going forth and going out, striking hearts. They were singing of the glories of God, and this tone, these songs, these vibrations of sounds, were going out of the building where I was and drawing in multitudes. This sound was drawing in the lost, the broken and the sick.
Suddenly, in the dream, I looked and I saw Bonnie and Mahesh Chavda with a friend of mine, Debbie Lamunyon. As I looked out the windows, there were multitudes of people. They were standing in lines waiting to get into the building, for a great revival had begun. As I looked out every window, the only thing I could see were lines of people waiting to get into the building where great signs and wonders were happening.
I woke up from the dream and I emailed James Goll, asking him his thoughts. He replied back, “I say this all the time: What goes up must come down.”
Yes, I knew this to be the law of “spiritual gravity”: What goes up must come down. When we pray, our voices arise like a fragrance right before the throne of God. He hears every prayer, every cry, every song, every plea—and He answers.
This is a season to look and expect God to break in. He is sending forth His angels of revival. We see in Psalm 104:4: that it is God who “makes His angels as winds, His ministers a flaming fire.”
These angels come to help us. We are approaching that which Bob Jones prophesied years ago—the greatest revival. The greatest harvest of the lost is approaching, and it’s a season to pray and cry out for more. Cry out for the breaking in of the host of heaven to go forth and strike the hearts of the lost. God is showing forth His mighty power, and we get to be a part of this great outpouring through prayer and then walking with Him in healing, signs and wonders.
If you don’t know what to pray, pray the apostolic prayers. One of my favorites is in 2 Thessalonians:
“Finally, brothers, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may quickly spread and be glorified, even as it did with you” (2 Thess. 3:1).

The Challenge Begins – “I Am Restructuring and Refurbishing Everything” – A Prophetic Insight For Today’s Church by Mary Lindow
November 7, 2014
Excerpt:
Conflict will be a normal disturbance in the days ahead.
Unless you harness the power of consistent prayer and train yourselves in regular gatherings of prayer and worship together, you will shrink back into serious doubt, anxiety and dread when the trauma of warfare attacks!!
GIVE VOICE TO MY SPIRIT!
Awaken your silent tongue and give voice to my name, My power and My Kingdom Solutions! No resistance executed against you will ultimately succeed! My Spirit longs to broadcast wonders, to decree Justice, and to destroy darkness with your lips proclaiming from the spirit.
“So is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
But will accomplish what I desire
And achieve the purpose for which I sent it.”
Isaiah 55:11
Speak out in truth and in praise and I will step into your midst with the peace you have been craving and seeking for. Quickly! Enter in before you make decisions and exchange ideas with others who might dilute what I am speaking to you!
“When I am given My rightful place of honor and reverence…
… Then I will speak and give you clear vision and direction.”
“In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning
I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation. ”

October 7, 2014 (day before 2nd blood moon) Bonnie and Bob Jones
| Bob’s Clock Stopped Here
We Must Discern the Times
By Bonnie Jones
|
 |
| He answered and said to them, “When it is evening you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red’; and in the morning, ‘It will be foul weather today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ Hypocrites! You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times. (Matthew 16:2-4)Acceleration On the last night before Bob’s passing I was alone with him in his hospital room and observed the clock on the wall as it sped forward. At exactly 11:55 p.m. the red second-hand began to move quickly then rested at the perpendicular position pointing to twelve. Immediately the minute hand began to advance forward rapidly. Of course when the minute hand moved, the hour hand advanced as well. In this quick transition, the clock stopped at exactly eight o’clock for a period of five seconds. It began spinning forward again until both hands reached exactly midnight then they stopped. The red second-hand jumped forward five seconds then the clock seemed to reset itself. This process took a total of five minutes. The same thing happened with the clock exactly one week earlier. At that time, four others beside myself were in the room to bear witness to this extraordinary yet prophetic happening.Several weeks after Bob’s passing, we talked with the head of security from the hospital. We showed him the video we made on our phone of the clock in fast-forward. He was amazed and said it was impossible for this to happen. He told us that all hospital clocks are synchronized to atomic time for the purpose of recording births, deaths, surgeries etc. because the timing must be precise. Yet this did happen, not once but twice.I believe that God was showing us a demonstration of spiritual things being accelerated in the body of Christ. The fact that the clock stopped at eight o’ clock indicates a new beginning. There was grace before the new day (11:55 p.m.) that has been extended to the body of Christ. Bob would speak of the number eleven, from Isaiah 11, where God is stretching forth His hand a second time to the remnant. And I believe fifty-five reveals great grace being released to bring in the billion-soul harvest Bob often spoke of.It shall come to pass in that day, That the Lord shall set His hand again the second time, to recover the remnant of His people who are left, (Isaiah 11:11a)I believe the red second-hand resting on the twelve pointed to God’s divine apostolic government being established. In fact I believe it is already in position and now being revealed by the Spirit of Truth. There were five witnesses – also meaning grace. The first time it happened was February 6; six representing the number of man. The second time was February 13, and thirteen represents a double-portion. Therefore, I feel a double portion of the anointing will be poured on the saints.The time 11:55 also represents two chapters in the Bible; Isaiah 55 from the Old Testament and Hebrews from the New. Hebrews chapter 11 is known as the faith chapter. It’s loaded with testimonies from the heroes of faith. Yet the night of Bob’s passing, I witnessed his demonstration of obedience that leads to faith. And this is what I believe the New Testament saints walked in. Bob would always talk about Isaiah 35 being the Highway of Holiness and Isaiah 55 being the conditions for it.Highway of Holiness Daily we need to heed to the voice of the Lord and obey. Too many have partaken of the fruit of the world and walked in its’ ways. Our soul is easily swayed by all the distractions of this fast-paced world. Yet our spirit should be the reigning authority in our life. If our spirit is submitted to the Holy Spirit, we will make choices according to the Father’s will and stay on His Highway. Many have been chewing on the wrong food and digesting the poison it has to offer. As the body of believers walk with the Lord on the Highway of Holiness, surrendered in obedience to Him, their toxins are flushed out of the soul and only their redeemed spirit remains.In short, all roads lead to the same place, although some take detours and never return to the straight and narrow way. Some are all about self and some are all about I AM. Take the road less traveled and arrive on time in the arms of Jesus.Please view this video of the clock in fast-forward recorded on February 6th, 2014 in Bob’s hospital room. Indeed it was a supernatural phenomenon that only God could make possible. It’s an extraordinary prophecy and we need to take heed and understand the time is NOW for HARVEST. Time has been accelerated and we must be able to discern the signs of the times. Don’t let the distractions of this world keep you from walking with Him in the eternal realm. Step into the harvest field of hope and follow after Him, only He can make you a fisher of all mankind. Follow the road less traveled and bear witness to the Anointing.
