Cancel Assignments!

The Lords intentions for us are always good! The enemies intentions for us are always evil, to steal, kill and destroy. The Lord has been showing me that we are in a time where we need to be aware of and very sensitive to the spirit regarding the strategy of the enemy. I have been having flashes of tragic things, seeing them as clearly as if they were really happening. God assured me that my imagination is not running wild, but that these are things that the prince of darkness actually has planned and is trying to carry out! However, he is showing his hand, and if we are aware the Lord will give us insight on how to cancel the assignments against us. We have full authority to do this!

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints. Ephesians 6:10-18

Twisters and Trains

I closed my eyes and on the back of my eyelids I saw twisters. They were big and fat but still funnel shaped. They would come, move and be gone. But as soon as one went away another one was already there. They continued like that, one after another.
The Lord showed me that the twisters were His presence. He said that in a storm the center is called the eye. He said that in these storms, I AM the eye. I AM the center of the storm. I AM the calm, the peace at the center of the storm. I come, I move. I stir things up and you get called up into my presence. In the past, there have been individual "moves of God." Now are the days when one move will come before the other has even ended. Sometimes you will not even begin to tell where one ends and one begins. You will just know that I AM God, I AM good and that you want to be along for the ride.
Then I saw a freight train in the night. It was going along the track at full speed towards what seemed like the horizon in the darkness. Then all of a sudden it hits a wall that was disguised as the horizon. The wall was painted in perfect likeness to the horizon in order to make you think that your view was endless. The freight train busted right through the wall and kept on track.
The Lord said that the freight train was called EXPECTATION. He said, don't forget the power behind expectation. It can thwart the lies of the enemy almost effortlessly. Also, expect me to come, expect me to move, and expect to be caught up in my presence and so it shall be.

Band of Introverts

The Lord showed me that He is raising up a band of introverts to be the messengers and leaders of this next move. He said that He is doing away with the times where people will seek Him for a general theme and then then run with that. He is raising up the introverts, who don't even really like to be in the spotlight, so that He can speak through them only exactly what He wants to say and nothing more. The quiet ones will all of a sudden have a big voice, because it is the voice of the Lord and nothing more.

Falling Stars

I was up with Caleb early this morning. In his room are three hanging star lantern lights. As I was holding him, putting him back to sleep, God said, I want to tell you something about the stars. So, I put the baby back to sleep and got back in bed and asked God about the stars.

He showed me an American flag flying on a flagpole waving and popping in the wind. Each time it would pop some of the stars would fall off of the flag. As we know, the stars on our flag represent the states. Then He showed me a peacock with its plumage in full display. Ahhh.... Pride.

Now, let me back it up a little bit. Towards the end of the summer, my friend, John Zintgraff, gave a word that: "There is a move of God coming. But it is not coming to the cities, towns and nations. It is coming to YOU! So then YOU can move among your cities, towns and nations." (Which we are seeing take place now!)

God said that the counter attack to this move that John told us was coming is pride and that it is matching Gods strategy. The enemy is going to try to attack YOU with pride so that it will sweep through your home, your church, your cities, towns, states, state leaders and eventually the nation. The stars were falling off because they were being taken down by pride.

Then He brought this scripture to mind.

"If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 6:42

India

About a month ago I received a word from my prophetic pappa... "God is going to start showing you global prophetic things that if you will pray into them they will have global impact. See with your prophetic, spirit eyes..."

I've been thinking a lot about that lately. Actually, I woke up early with Caleb one morning and after I got back in bed I was thinking about this word. I told God that I wanted to start getting more corporate words in addition to words for individuals that I already get. His response was "anytime." So, India had been coming up over and over again over the last couple of weeks. I had a dream I was ministering to an Indian family, Kelby had a dream that he and Clay were in India ministering on a mountain top, it came up in the sermon last week, every tag I look at says "made in India" etc... So I asked God what was up with India? This is what He said:

I have poured out my oil on India (emphasis on the word out). He showed me an old clay pitcher that was being poured upside down until the last drop came out. Then He said, There is a strong religious spirit that is still in control there. This is so strong that it has formed a barrier over the land like a bubble or a dome had been placed over it. I saw that the oil that had been poured out was sitting on top of the dome. Then He showed me where several people had reached up from inside the bubble and pierced it as with a needle and it is raining droplets of oil all over India. But God said , this is only a fraction of what I have for them. I have poured out my oil over this land so that world revival will come out of India. Revival will sweep the land. It will hit them all at once like a flash flood when that barrier is broken and they are drenched in my oil. This will have global impact. When you see these big changes in India, get ready! It is headed your way!

The Shaking

What can be shaken will be shaken!

This is what the Lord almighty says, " In a little while I will once more shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land. I will shake all nations, and the desired of all nations will come and I will fill this house with glory," says the Lord almighty. "The silver is mine and the gold is mine," declares the Lord almighty. "The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house," says the Lord almighty. "And in this place I will grant peace," declares the Lord almighty. Haggai 2:6-9

When the shaking comes it is because God is pouring out!

I'm not exactly sure what all of this means. But I know it is good and it means good things are heading our way! Big things are headed our way! Are you ready?

A word came from Jill Austin on Feb. 20th 2008 that I think speaks to this. Check it out:

Jesus on skis

Our pastor had been preaching, for several weeks now, about getting in the presence of the Lord. This Sunday in particular he was teaching about a friendship mentality with the Lord and about how easy it is to get into the presence when you consider Jesus your friend. There is no formula, no set of special rules, no atmospheric requirements. You just say, here I am friend. So...that afternoon as I was laying down to take a nap I decided to give it a shot. I took a deep breath and as I exhaled I softly said... ahhh... Jesus. And sure enough, He was there. I took this opportunity to ask Him what He had to tell me about our church. And this is what He showed me:

I saw a double barrel ski jump. The kind like in the winter Olympics, I guess it is the long jump. If you were looking straight at the ramp, Jesus was on the left and David (pastor) was on the right. They flew down the ramp together in perfect synchronization and launched off both with big smiles on their faces.

Then He said, as a church, we are going to fly with GRACE & PRECISION!

The Giving Window in 2008

"Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this, says the Lord, "and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that you will not have enough room for it." Malachi 3:10

Now, more than ever, is a time to give! 2008, a window has opened. God said that if you pour out, I will pour out onto you. Bring not only your tithes but your offerings too. This is a year of prosperity and acceleration. Not only monetarily but in everything!

The Glory Bridge

I had a dream of a castle with a mote around it and it had a large heavy wooden door. But instead of the door lowering like a bridge over the mote, it was a door that opened from bottom to top. The scene of the castle was very bleary, gray and murky. The door was slightly cracked and bright white light shown from inside the castle. I asked God what the door was all about because it had a very heavy feel. He said that it was the division of things of heaven and earth.
Then I saw everyone in the church outside of the castle. They were all on the other side of the mote. Some were teaching, some preaching, some worshiping, each doing their own thing but all simultaneously doing it towards the door. As they were doing this, the crack of light from under the door began to shine on them and made a bridge over the mote. The crack was still very small but the people could hardly stand under the power of it and the ground began to rumble. God said that this is only a fraction of what I have for you. These are just the pre-tremors of what is to come.
