"THIS IS A YEAR OF FIRSTS--PREPARE FOR THE BIRTHING OF NEW THINGS!"

Dear Friends,

I must take this moment, while the vision and experience is fresh, to tell you what happened to me last night. It's one of the most incredible, mighty, and awesome experiences I have ever had during a television show or the taping of one.

Prime Time Christian Broadcasting had invited me as a guest speaker. I knew beforehand that God was going to do something on the show, because He'd already told me so while traveling to the Midland-Odessa studios. He promised me He would come during the program.

I didn't doubt Him for a moment. I reflected and considered His promise, excited and determined to prepare for His visit. Hmm, I thought, when He arrives, I'll decree the words of knowledge that He gives me. I'll decree and share what I hear. He said also that He was going to move in healing. We've already seen incredible new levels of healing, but man, He moved last evening!

I shared a word about the Favor of the Lord and the Justice of our God (below). Suddenly, the Presence of the Lord flooded the whole studio on live television, and I had to stop what I was doing! His tangible presence came and flowed through the studio as we broadcast live, and, from several reports, flowed to viewers in homes all over the world. Here I was, live on world television, broadcasting to hundreds of thousands of people in India, the Philippines, and throughout the U.S., and all I could do was bow my head and say, "He's here! He's here! The Presence of the Lord is here!"

What a powerful and awesome Presence. I knew He was releasing something to the watching multitudes (we have already received many testimonies).

Fresh Winds are Blowing...

This has never happened to me like this on television before. But I'm not surprised, because I believe and the Lord has shown me, that the year 2007 will be "A Year of First Things." The Lord has shown me many key things of late about this year, and 2008, and I'll be sharing more and more with you in coming days as He releases me to.

Year of Firsts

Do you have things in your heart, "firsts," that you know are of the Lord, and have believed for but not received? Are they in your heart, your vision, or your dreams, awaiting birth? Expect these "First Things" to happen in 2007 and 2008! Just as He flooded the television studio with His presence--a first for me--these things will birth instantly, and for the first time, in you. Prepare for the birthing of great things! Prepare your life, your business, your ministry, your church for a time of great growth, development, strengthening, and peace.

I LOVE the glory of the Lord. I'm like a child in His wonderful presence. When He shows up, I am filled with joy, gratitude, and childlike excitement. My little grandsons, Ethan and Evan are like that; when they see me, they run to me excited, happy, and thrilled to meet my hugs or high-fives. I'm like them when I'm in my Father's presence. Every time is like the first time--that's the way it is with the tangible presence of the Lord! What a joy, what a privilege, what a wonder it is that He comes in such a powerful way. In just a few moments, so much happens--deep calls to deep in wondrous, unfathomable ways.

Such Power!

We've seen great breakouts of healing, signs, wonders, salvations, and the Lord's power. Oh my gosh, "Such power, Lord!" I believe that these things are on the rise--increasing moment-by-moment, day-by-day--and that the coming two years will flow deeper and broader rivers of harvest.

A key aspect of His glory that He's ministered to me is what I term, the "Daniel Anointing." This is the glory of God's character in us. The glory of the Lord within, that we are people of excellence, a people of Godly character, able to mightily impact the Kingdom where we are--in our surroundings. God is releasing His favor right now. Ask Him to favor you for Kingdom impact in your surroundings for His glory.

Great grace follows this anointing--grace and favor--great increase. Those favored of the Lord are blessed with honor, influence, resources, and so much more. We see this with Biblical saints of old whom God favored, and it's happening now. This is why the Lord has bestowed within us the abundance of glory, that is, who He is, His character, His nature, so that we are able to walk in this release and abundance, in this anointing at this time.

Oh, I have much more to share, but what I want to bring forth from my heart at this time is that, last evening was a "First Time." Even though I've had visions, experiences, dreams, I knew there'd be a time when the Angel of the Lord would appear to touch multitudes as I ministered. It happened. It happened last night. Wow. My television hosts asked if it had ever happened before, and I said, "No! It's a first!"

Release of First Things

Are you ready for the Lord to release those "First Things" that have been on your heart? The things that you know that you know will happen but are waiting for?

Here is what I shared with the viewers last night just before the Angel of the Lord showed up. Let it lodge deep within in your heart, and expect your First Thing. Expect His presence to come in a tangible way--His glory to fill your heart.

The Lord is releasing a powerful revelation and unction of the "Power of Decree" for daily victory. The message over your life is "Victory!"

Revelation of the Power of His Voice

In Isaiah 61:1, we see that the Spirit of the Lord comes upon, and He is anointed to proclaim. In this proclamation, the bound are loosed, and captives are set free. In verse two, again the proclamation of the Word of the Lord is released and the Word is that this year will be the year of the Favor of the Lord and the Vengeance of our God. In Hebrews 1:3, we see that the power of the Word of the Lord maintains, compels, and controls the entire universe. Psalm 29 reveals that His voice breaks open and breaks down. His voice is powerful, majestic, it shakes, it strikes, it twists, and strips, it thunders, and scatters the enemy (Psalm 18:13, 14).

Reversal and Restoration

It is under the unction of the Holy Spirit that proclamation goes forth, that this will be a year of the Lord and the Vengeance of our God. How many of you would like Almighty God to favor your year? How would you like the Lord to proclaim justice over your life and family, for complete reversal and restoration of everything stolen? I believe the justice of the Lord will rewind a situation or circumstance, like rewinding a movie back to a certain point, and that things will happen the way the Lord meant them to! Wow, restoration! Instead of ashes, the beauty of the Lord--that you are called "trees of righteousness and the planting of the Lord!"

In coming days, I'll teach more about this, but realize this, that you become one who declares, by the unction of the Lord, the Year of the Favor of the Lord and the Justice of our God over others. Declare restoration and release over the desolation of many generations--that you would see, in your lifetime, the rebuilding and restoration of lives and families.

Do you see?

This is the point of my message where the tangible presence of the Lord flooded the studio. I immediately stopped teaching, recognized Him, and honored His presence, encouraging the viewers to receive from the Lord that their joy may be full. Receive now, too, that your joy may be full.

Every time the Lord's presence comes to me, I'm in awe. I came undone last night! He abides in all of us forever, but when He chooses to come during a meeting, a service, at prayer time, wow--consider that He came during a live broadcast. The One came to that place last night. Who? The One.

Get Ready!

I believe that we are going to see masses of humanity stop what they're doing to look, but not at what we're doing, friends, but what God's doing, praise the Lord. Get ready for the Favor of the Lord and the Justice of our God upon you and your household. May this year be a year of many FIRST wonders for you!

Rich Blessings,

PROPHECIES FULFILLED--PREPARE YOURSELF--SO GREAT WILL BE THE CHANGE!

May 23, 2007

Kim Clement:

"PROPHECIES FULFILLED--PREPARE YOURSELF--SO GREAT WILL BE THE CHANGE!"

Capuchin Monkey Dies of Plague at Zoo and officials are trying to prevent an epidemic

Click Here to read article (www.foxnews.com)

On May 11, Kim prophesied "go to the zoo and you will see it," so this article certainly caught our attention when it was posted yesterday. The full prophecy is below.

May 11, 2007--Detroit, MI

"Do you think that I would send the prophet to your city, to your soil, and not speak to your economy?" The Spirit of the Lord said, "So great will be the change with the energy crisis--for the motor industry, that people will say 'we gave up on it.'" But God said, "I told you before, those that give up cannot see, but this day I say these words to you: prepare yourself, for this that is going to happen shall come because of a global interruption. Do not look at your present, your current crisis and say 'I am afraid that my family will not eat' for I have never seen the righteous forsaken, nor their seed begging for bread."

What happened to the great words of David? What happened to the great words of Solomon? For God said, "You will always have something; take no thought for your tomorrow when it comes to clothing and food, for if you serve Me and follow Me I will take care of it."

"But there will be a global event that will take place, that causes the motor industry to change so rapidly, and people will say 'we thought it was coming to nothing.' But look now, and suddenly the economy of Detroit, Michigan shall change. It happened before, and it shall happen again, for in the month of October, one of the great months that I give great favor, I shall grant unto you access to the 'goings on.' For this global interruption shall cause men to go to the board and say 'why didn't we see it? It was already written there in the 50's--the 40's and the 50's. It was already somewhere in the thinking of mankind, of science.'"

God said, "Do not fear, for the Middle East shall no longer bring slavery to the men and the women of this Nation in their subtle encounters." For God said, "This day I say to you: Even as you have housed the Islamic community," so God said, "The prosperity that they have enjoyed shall now also be on the other side of the coin." For God said, "There will be great, great salvations, great, great deliverances," but the Lord says "the communities shall be shaken for they shall want God more than they have ever wanted Him." And God said, "I will show Myself strong."

"But the economy of Michigan, the City of Light will not remain as it is. It shall change to such a degree that within an 18-20 month period, houses that once sold for a minimal amount shall suddenly sell--and it shall be like 200%. You shall say as many leaders shall say 'ha'--they shall say 'how could this possibly be, and this prophet speaks as an insane man.'" But the Spirit of God said, "Do not say as the guardian said, when Elisha said 'tomorrow about this time there will be an economic change,' and he said 'God even if He opened up the Heavens would not do this.' And Elisha said, 'You will see it, but you will not touch it.' For tonight if you would see it, you will take a hold of it. You will have a change so great that they will say, 'God did it in the time that He said He would.' I am proud of you. I will not allow your economy to go any further now. Watch for this global interruption, and then take this as a sign. For as I shake the ground of Michigan and terror comes, say to yourselves, 'God is the One doing the shaking' for I will raise you up to be a voice again," says the Lord, "in the economy, and in the politics of this Nation," says the Lord.

City of Light, City of Light, City of Light, City of Light--

"A Governor who is terrorized shall be removed. This will be a sign," says the Lord. Take this as a warning from the Lord God. "They have laughed at the Church, they have laughed at the organization that they have called the Church--they laughed, and so have I," says the Lord. "For this reminds Me of the synagogues of satan that have interrupted My liberty and My Spirit to move. There are three of them in this city that will no longer transcribe the doctrine of demons." For God said, "There is a doctrine of demons that has made you a laughing stock." God said, "In the presence of His people, let the prophet once again speak, that I will use Michigan to deal with the synagogues of satan. They have transcribed the doctrines of demons. You say, who?" God said, "Go to the zoo and you will see it." For God said, "They are acting as if they know much, removing godliness and purity. These churches say, 'The Spirit has done all that He can do.' But little do they know--as remotely as I raised up the little child, Jesus, in a stable, so I will take 17 churches to 23 churches in the Michigan area that are nothing and raise them up, and they will strike down the doctrines of demons by My grace giving them miracles and miracles and miracles and miracles and miracles and miracles," says the Spirit of God!

60-Year-Old Woman becomes the oldest in the United States to give birth to Twins

Click Here to read article (www.foxnews.com)

On May 12, Kim prophesied "in the month of May a double portion shall be granted to the wombs of the women." These twin boys were born just yesterday, and the mom and twins are healthy. The full prophecy is below.

May 12, 2007--Detroit, MI

The Spirit of God said, "A generation of young men and women are ready to be raised up, that's why the enemy would take them out of your womb, that's why the enemy would try and steal from the womb from a young age the children of this day. But I say to you this night that if the enemy would do this to you, then I will pay you back with multiplication. Because he has come on illegal terms and taken what is rightfully Mine, for if your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, then you are Mine," says the Lord. "Therefore, even as wombs have experienced death, and barrenness has been the order of the day; so it is cleared up in the month of May. For in the month of May a double portion shall be granted to the wombs, a double portion shall be granted to the wombs of the women, and those that have not given birth when they should have," says the Lord, "And so it shall be that in this month multiplication shall take place. Can anybody see it?"

"Is there a prisoner of vision; is there a prisoner of prophecy? Is there a prisoner of praise? Because if you can see it, it's going to happen this month," says the Spirit of the Lord.

God said, "It's going to happen again, the greatest revival that has ever happened will be in this Nation. I will see to it," says the Spirit of God.

"I have kept this Nation as I have Jerusalem, watched over it as a mother covers her little ones, her little chicks, so I have watched over this Nation jealously. I have brought from religious bondage to bring freedom to the earth. Do not forget the reason for your embarkation; do not forget the hatred that came because of what you did, then division--Civil War." But God said, "And yet you have stood as a light in extreme darkness. I took your hands and they were torn by the thorns of the vines of Europe as you dedicated lives to France; you dedicated lives for Germany, for Great Britain. And now who is it that would stand with you and who is it that would once again slap you in the face." For God said, "You were a light then, and though there were days of failure, I watched over you. Korea, I watched over you; Viet Nam. What failure is there but that men are filled with greed?" And the Spirit of God said, "Yet I watched over a Nation that caused me to smile when it brought birth to My Spirit and My Kingdom, and it went West and gold came from the earth." Now God said, "There is a different kind of gold that is coming from the very bowels of the kingdom of darkness." For God said, "They will surrender for they have terrorized this Nation."

And The Lord says, "I have chosen this year of 2007 to pay back so many times. This month of May is the beginning of the end. October will be shouts of victory again as it was in the December that Saddam Hussein was captured, so it shall be again and again this year. I have watched over you," and God said, "I have listened to the prayers of your forefathers. I have watched over the words that were written," and God said, "It shall not be removed, it shall not be taken out of the Constitution because listen: My holiness cannot be tainted by men who have no fear of God. I will prove Myself by doing two unique things which shall become a global interruption." And God said, "It shall be a sign that the division that the enemy has tried to bring into this Nation shall be brought to an end. There will always be squabbling, you are Americans!" But God said, "Know this: in the end you will stand as one. Why? Because of My Church whom I am building and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," says the Lord!

THE NEW BREED WILL SHAKE THE NATIONS--BRINGING HEAVEN TO EARTH DAILY

Ryan Wyatt: "THE NEW BREED WILL SHAKE THE NATIONS--BRINGING HEAVEN TO EARTH DAILY"


SALVATION IS NOT WHAT WE THINK

Jesus Christ did not come to earth in the form of a human, just so people could be born again, and one day go to Heaven when they die. That thought is a very watered-down version of the gospel. The gospel that many of us heard at our moment of salvation, was probably something like, "Simply give your heart to Jesus, read your Bible everyday, and be faithful to a local church." That certainly wasn't the gospel that Jesus preached. Many people's idea of salvation is that they now have their bus ticket to Heaven, so when the moment of death comes along, they are assured a seat on the bus bound for Heaven.

God's idea of complete salvation is not just having an assurance of going to Heaven one day, but rather being saved enough to bring Heaven to earth now! This was Adam's original mandate that he forfeited in the garden after disobeying God. I think Jesus was serious in Matthew 6:10, when He told us to pray, "Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven."

THE NEW PROTOTYPE FOR THE NEW BREED

Jesus Christ was sent, and lived His life, as a prototype of what is possible and available for each one of us as believers. Jesus lived His day-to-day life out of the intimate voice of God. He carried His Kingdom (the supernatural realm of Heaven) on the earth with miracles, signs, and wonders following Him.

Jesus came to birth a "New Breed" on the earth and restore the Kingdom of God to them. This new breed is a remnant of people recklessly abandoned, and in love with their God, who through intimacy, destroy the works of the devil, and bring the realm of Heaven to earth daily. This new breed would carry the very DNA of God within them, and continue the mandate originally given to Adam--to fill the earth with the Glory of God.

Adam was the first prototype of an entire human race. When Adam sinned in the garden and became corrupt, he corrupted every human being that would come after him, because all human beings come from the seed of Adam. The Bible separates all of humanity into two categories--In Adam or in Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:45 says this, "So also it is written, 'The first man, Adam, became a living soul. The last Adam became a life-giving spirit."

The meaning of this Scripture, is that Jesus Christ came as the "last Adam" because like the first Adam, Jesus would be the prototype of a new breed. Jesus birthed a new "man" on the earth who would carry the DNA of God within them, and continue the mandate originally given to Adam.

SATAN PANICKED

When Jesus was born, satan panicked because all of a sudden, he was seeing another perfect Man on the earth just as Adam was before his fall. Could Jesus birth a new race of people that could carry on the mandate of God in the earth? I believe satan probably looked at this situation and wondered how this would happen when there was no perfect woman on the earth to help birth a new race. Nevertheless, satan panicked, and immediately decided that he would have Jesus killed! Satan operated through Herod to kill all male children under the age of 2, in the hopes of killing Jesus, and stopping this new race from coming into existence (Matthew 2:16).

What satan did not realize, is that Jesus had no intention of birthing a new species of human in a physical sense. 1 Corinthians 2:7-8 says, "But we speak God's wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom, which God predestined before the ages to our glory; the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory."

Satan fell right into the plan of God by having Jesus crucified. The plan of God was that Jesus would be crucified, raised from the dead, and become a life-giving Spirit (1 Corinthians 15:45) to birth a new breed "in the spirit." God would give humanity an opportunity to be born again, or "born from above."

Like I said, the Lord had no intention of birthing a new species of human, but rather coming to live within human beings, thereby making them different from any other human to ever walk the earth. Human beings would be granted the opportunity to be born a second time, but this time they would be "born from above," in the spirit, and have the very DNA of God within them!

THE BIRTHING OF THE NEW BREED

Jesus stated His earthly purpose in John 12:23-24, "But Jesus answered them, saying, 'The hour has come that the Son of Man should be glorified. Most assuredly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it produces much grain.'"

Jesus compares Himself to a grain of wheat. He says that if a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it will produce many more grains of wheat, just like the first grain. Jesus died and rose from the dead, so He could birth a new breed that would be just like Him.

Jesus is the "first born from the dead" as stated in Colossians 1:18, "He is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the first-born from the dead; so that He Himself might come to have first place in everything."

Jesus is the new breed. By Jesus dying and raising from the dead, He became the fulfillment of a new prototype of a new breed that would be just like Him. Romans 8:29 says,
"For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the first-born among many brethren."

BORN OF GOD

Born again believers are the brothers of Jesus and the very offspring of God. Let me make this point clear, we are not God, but we are sons of God. If you are born again, you are not just adopted by God; you are literally born of God and you have His DNA within you!

1 John 3:9, says that you literally have the seed of God within you, "No one born of God makes a practice of sinning, for God's seed abides in him, and he cannot keep on sinning because he has been born of God," and 1 Peter 1:23 says, "For you have been born again not of seed which is perishable but imperishable, that is, through the living and abiding word of God."

AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD

Jesus clearly states in the Word of God that we will do greater things than He did (John 14:12). The Bible also states in 1 John 4:17b, "as He is, so also are we in this world."

If we are to be, in this world, just as God is "right now," and we are to do greater works than Jesus did, then let's take a look at the way Jesus lived. In John 3:13, Jesus says, "No one has ascended to Heaven but He who came down from Heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in Heaven."

One interpretation of this would be that no one could ascend to Heaven, or be in Heaven, unless they first came from Heaven. Jesus is saying, as He stands on the earth in front of Nicodemus, that He is also in Heaven at this very moment. How could Jesus be both on earth, standing in front of Nicodemus, and also be in Heaven at the same time? He stated this as a fact because, He came from Heaven. The fact that Jesus came from Heaven, gave Him the right to be in Heaven at the same time as standing on the earth, as a man.

Just as the first Adam lived in two realms at one time, connected to God before the fall, so now Jesus is stating that He lives in two realms at one time as the last Adam. The death and resurrection of Jesus, provided us with a way to be "born from above" and become Heavenly citizens. We are seated with Christ in Heavenly places even while present on this earth, because we have been born from above. We also have access to the Heavenly places just as Jesus did while He walked the earth.

WE ARE THE GATEWAY OF HEAVEN ON EARTH

In Genesis 28, we read of an account where Jacob encountered an open Heaven. He laid his head on a rock to sleep for the night, and had an encounter where he saw a ladder set up on the earth and reaching into Heaven. He saw angels ascending and descending on the ladder, and he saw the Lord standing at the top of the ladder. Jacob came out of the experience and marveled at how awesome that place was, and said that this place is the house of God and the gateway of Heaven.

How does Jacob describe the house of God? He describes the house of God as being a place where the gate of Heaven is open, and the angels ascend and descend and the Lord looks on with a watchful eye. According to Jacob, the house of God is a pretty incredible place! Where is the house of God today, where the Heavens are open? The Bible says you are the temple of God (1 Corinthians 6:19).

Where is the gateway of Heaven on earth today? The answer is found in John 1:51, "And He said to him, "Truly, truly, I say to you, you shall see the Heavens opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.'"

In this Scripture, Jesus says that the Heavens are open over Him, and the angels ascend and descend upon Him. Jesus is telling us that He is now the Heavenly ladder that Jacob experienced in the wilderness. Jesus is basically saying that He is the gateway of Heaven on earth.

I believe one of the greatest truths of the Bible that will explode within the hearts of this end-time generation is the truth of Colossians 1:27, "To whom God willed to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory."

God is trying to get us to a place of truly understanding who we are. The church is having an identity crisis. When the people of God begin to realize that the purpose of Jesus on the earth, was to birth a new breed of people who would carry the DNA of God within them, and bring Heaven to earth daily, we will begin to live with purpose. When the people of God begin to realize their identity as the very offspring of God (as He is right now, so are we), the church will begin to shake the nations with the power of God.

We are the house of God where the Heavens are open, and we are the gateway where Heaven touches earth because Jesus Christ lives within us!

When we realize that the greatest revival to ever touch the earth lives within each and every born again believer, then we will fulfill the mandate of "Your Kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven."

"THE COURT OF GOD'S GRACE IS NOW IN SESSION--OUR FAITH WILL TIP THE SCALES OF JUSTICE"

Chad Taylor:

"THE COURT OF GOD'S GRACE IS NOW IN SESSION--OUR FAITH WILL TIP THE SCALES OF JUSTICE"

"Signs, wonders, miracles, and the great commissioning to preach the Gospel with favor--unparalleled in human history--is the abundant evidence in this Court of Grace."

Recently, I heard this audible word, "THE COURTS OF GOD'S GRACE ARE NOW IN SESSION." I saw an unfolding vision of a real life courtroom, and the jury was entering, filing into their seats. There was a large crowd in the main audience, and I knew right away by the innumerable television cameras, that this was being viewed around the world. I then saw Jesus come into the room, and He stated, "I am ready to bring evidence and substance to prove My people's faith."

Another voice who I knew to be the Father's, then said to Jesus, "The court is now Yours to present Your case." I was immediately drawn to the Scripture in Matthew 11, as the Lord revealed to me the first session of God's Court of Grace 2,000 years ago:

"And when John had heard in prison about the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples and said to Him, 'Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?' Jesus answered and said to them, 'Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the Gospel preached to them'" (Matthew 11:2-5).

As the jury of that age was assembled for the first time, Jesus, our Advocate, presented His overwhelming evidence proving that His grace WAS sufficient. Then I heard the voice of the Lord say again, "Court is now in session again, and I will prove like no other time in history that My grace is sufficient. I will present evidence and substance that My people's faith is not in vain."

SIGNS, WONDERS, AND MIRACLES ARE HIS EVIDENCE IN THIS PRESENT COURT OF GRACE

Signs, wonders, miracles, and the great commissioning to preach the Gospel with favor--unparalleled in human history--is the abundant evidence in this Court of Grace. I heard the Lord say to the Jury of unbelievers, agnostics, Muslims, and every sort of doubter and critic, "Watch and see, I will do a work before you--that you will not believe--even if it were told to you."

As this Heavenly drama unfolded before me, I noticed again the television cameras and high-tech video recorders. I heard the Lord say to me, "My miracles will be seen in High Definition, and nobody will be able to deny or rebuke them." The Lord was making His work more visible than ever in recorded history. It would be seen on every network and television channel around the world, and feature films and secular media would become our greatest source of visibility as they recorded the great exploits of God's people.

Like Nebuchadnezzar, many of the most visible personalities in movies and media would openly and publicly confess that "Jesus Christ is Lord." I heard the Lord say, "Watch Donald Trump, for as a child he encountered Me, and I am going to remind him of his greatest legacy in the days to come. He is one of many that I will shine the spotlight of My grace on."

THE DAYS OF HEBREWS 11 HAVE OFFICIALLY BEGUN

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1).

Thus says the Lord, "The substance and evidence of all that My Church has contended for is beginning to make itself manifest. You will see the greater works and exploits you have read about for generations. The engine that will move this vehicle of greater works is GRACE, and it will enable you to do in one year what otherwise would have taken ten. The days of leaping and jumping have come again, and the great public display of miracle-working power is upon you. This will not only be in stadiums and at scheduled events, but also in the 'Gate Beautiful' and many other visible and public places."

"Many who have strived and walked faithfully for years in obscurity, will suddenly step into the great spotlight of this grace and will find themselves in the whirlwind of miracles. These nameless and faceless ones will suddenly have a name and a face, and they will magnify My name in a way that rivals the faith of those mentioned in Hebrews 11. Watch as these ones captivate millions as they are displayed on story-high TV screens, just like the ones in downtown New York City or like the monitors in the Las Vegas Casinos. The world will SEE My Glory!"

2007--THE OPENING BELL FOR THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH

"NOW is the time to contend and reach for the greater works. Like Paul, you must believe for the greater things and strive for that upward call like you never have before. As the bar is raised, I will show Myself strong on My people's behalf, opening the doors of the Supreme Court and the White House as never before. I say 'Watch and see,' for there are two more seats if you will believe! I said, 'Watch and see--there are TWO more seats if you will only believe!' Grace will tip the scales of Justice, and she will submit to My Word. A mass exodus from the abortion clinics will occur as you face the future with My grace."

I then saw a vision of boarded up buildings with "CLOSED FOR BUSINESS" signs on them in every state and city. I knew these were abortion clinics and that the Lord had wielded His gavel of grace across this land, and a new day had dawned.

The Lord then said, "The next seven years, starting in 2007, will be My appointed days of plenty. I will undo the heavy burdens of laws and legislation that have been put upon you, and this will mark the days of the greater works. I will stall the plans of the enemy in this country, and the liberty to do My work will be a plumb line before you. All that you have endured, America, is for the defense of the Gospel. I said it is for the defense of the Gospel. Awake, O righteous Church, for the day of your divine deliverance has come. And the court of My grace is now in session!"

TIME MAGAZINE WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO SAY WHAT I WANT THEM TO SAY

Kim Clement:
"GOD SAYS, 'TIME MAGAZINE WILL HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO SAY WHAT I WANT THEM TO SAY'"

The Spirit of God says, "I will move in a very unusual manner. For this Nation is being mocked. Third world countries are mocking you. Ungodly nations are mocking you." But God said, "Not the forces of hell, for they are hearing sounds of fire and resurrection that are emerging from the four corners of this Nation. Some would say, 'You are forgotten,' but I have told you there will be an invasion of the news media. Instruments that once mocked Me will be instruments that now raise Me up," says the Lord.


"Men who attempted to say, 'There is no God,' as they have done through the centuries and they have done through the millennia," God says, "it shall once again happen the same way that it happened then. Would history repeat itself and would I arise to the occasion? Yes." For God said, "I am not going to yesterday to bring the past back into existence, but I am moving into the future and bringing it into existence. For this Nation shall once again pioneer the greatest move of the Spirit that has ever happened," says the Lord. And you are alive, you are alive in the midst of it!

"Abraham saw your day and rejoiced. David saw your day and sang about it. And what are you doing in this, your day? Do I stand as I stood before Jerusalem and say in this your day, did you know your day of visitation? Or did you judge it by the political reigning powers and the religious bigotry that exists? This is your day," says the Lord.

"And in the month of May and October of this year, I will grant an unusual amount of favor. I will grant an unusual amount of favor not only to the Church but into this Nation, for the rain shall come upon the just and the unjust. For suddenly, there will be a rapidity, there will be a movement that shall happen so quickly that they shall say, 'We did not bring birth or give birth to this. No man will take credit for this that is about to happen." God said, "It shall be like Elijah, where there was no proof of his birth or of his beginning and no proof of his death." God said, "This that I will do, shall give no man credit, for it shall be the most unusual thing," says the Lord. "And I have focused upon California to do this, yes I have!"

For God said, "In 1967, a revolution took place," and now God said, "of a greater kind, of a magnitude like you have never seen, and greater than what took place in 1967 in the northern part of California." God said, "This shall be something that will never die," says the Lord of Hosts!

The Spirit of God says, "Many will say, 'What do you mean it will never die? Revivals have begun and revivals have ended.'" God said, "In this one, there is no end!"

This is a Moment of Resurrection

The Spirit is dictating from this atmosphere--you have arrested the powers of darkness, and you have made an adjustment in the atmosphere, and there has been an atmosphere adjustment. I hear the sound of an abundance; I hear the sound of resurrection!!

It's being dictated. God said, "Would you understand this, would you comprehend and then apprehend what is in the atmosphere?" The comprehension of something is not enough; the comprehension and the apprehension of something. For God says, "Though you comprehend this that is being released tonight, during the days of this time as it is being released," God said, "Their comprehension must move into a realm of apprehension, where you will grasp it and not let it go."

For the Spirit of God said, "The movement that is now starting, some will say, 'It began with a call,' others will say, 'it began with a prayer group that started this or that.' Some will say, 'It came from the prophets.'" God said, "No. It will not be attributed to one gift, one ascension gift, not to one church, not one," says the Lord.

"I am God and you have called to Me, and many from this Nation have said, 'Enough--enough of religion and enough of dead speech.'" The Spirit of God said, "This is a moment of resurrection." For the Spirit of God says, "Honor Me with your praise and acceptance of this that I say to you. This that shall take place shall be the most unusual thing, a transfiguration, a going into the marketplace if you wish, and into the news media. Where Time Magazine will have no choice but to say what I want them to say; Newsweek what I want them to say; and The View, what I want to say."

"Trump shall become a trumpet," says the Lord! "I will raise up the Trump to become a trumpet and Bill Gates to open up the gate of a financial realm for the Church," says the Spirit of the Living God!

In 1967, there was a great revolution, but God said, "The revolution that you are going to experience starting in 2007 is going to be greater than anything that's ever happened."

The Spirit of the Lord says, "Hear the Word of the Lord tonight: this Nation has waited and waited and they have said, 'Revival, revival, revival.'" God said, "There is more than revival. We have revived and brought back, but a Spirit of resurrection is upon you." For God said, "I am breathing--I am breathing upon the people of this Nation. I am breathing upon the churches that are going down and I am bringing them up," says the Spirit of God.

"I am breathing upon the political powers that be." For God said, "I will not forget 911. I will not forget what took place that day, and I will not forget the gatekeeper that watched over New York, who will once again stand and watch over this Nation," says the Spirit of God. "It shall come to pass that the man that I place in the highest office shall go in whispering My name." But God said, "When he enters into the office, he will be shouting out by the power of the Spirit, for I shall fill him with My Spirit when he goes into office, and there will be a praying man in the highest seat in your land." And God says, "Even a greater move of the Spirit shall take place and your enemies will finally be subdued by the year 2009."

For God said, "There shall be a great move of My Spirit that shall raise your children up, and your children shall become the voices and the mouthpieces of this hour," says the Lord. "Your children shall become as Samuel, your children shall become as Davids, your children shall become as the Esthers and the Mary's of this day, and they will bring this great move into this Nation," says the Lord.

For God said, "Even as you have said, 'What will happen with our schools? What will happen with our children? What will happen with them?'" God said, "I will show you things that your forefathers never even knew and dreamed about," says the Spirit of God. "I will cause you to see things that they never even thought would happen." Shall we go back to the original?

America, America, you are the salt of the earth....

God said, "And far, far greater. For the year 2009--energy will have changed drastically. This Nation will have tapped into the 'Big E' four times. Ethanol shall then be changed into another 'coli,'" and then God said, "two more times, and then there shall be a breakthrough in this Nation, and you shall look at the Middle East and you shall say, 'No more, no more of your deceit, no more of your control, and no more of your oil--it's over. Our soil has presented us with that which we need to be independent of the Middle East,'" says the Lord!

The Spirit of God says, "Where you are, lift up your eyes, and whatever you see tonight, I'm going to give it to you, for your sight has been elevated," says the Lord.

"America, America, you are the salt of the earth. America, America, you are the light of the world!" The Spirit of God says, "As you sing these words, surely, I will remember the promises that were made on the steps of the Capitol," though now abandoned, and though now forgotten, God said, "I will not forget. And I will bring to this Nation what it deserves. For in 2009, you will say, 'This is the beginning and will never end.' Therefore, rejoice, for whatever you see tonight, I will give it to you," says the Spirit of God.

"America, America, you are the salt of the earth. America, America, you are the light of the world."

April 5, 2007--Redding, California

I have raised up a standard against the enemy--you are that standard


"In the field where there has been blood and anguish and pain, there is still yet a sound of a warrior that refuses to shut his mouth. For yet, it is easy to praise Me in the presence of the angels," but the Spirit of God says, "for those that I have raised up likened unto David that would praise Me in the presence of their enemies--this is prophetic praise." For God said, "Coming from the sounds of the battlefields of this Nation, not in the Middle East, but the spiritual battlefields of this Nation, I have heard the sounds of warriors with faith bellowing--with faith bellowing from their spirits to the Hero of Golgotha, to the Hero of Gethsemane, to the Hero of Calvary." Lord, we give unto You praise and glory and honor, You are our Hero!

"Yet, we hear the sound of victory throughout this Nation. Some would hear the sound of defeat, others would hear the sound of negative words and energy. Some would hear the sound of hatred, division, discord, and yes, even the sound of witchcraft and manipulation. But yet intertwined between this, I have set a standard." For God said, "I have raised up a standard against him--you are that standard. Though the enemy rises, and though he comes in like a flood, I will raise up a standard against him. And surely," says the Lord, "I have raised up a standard against the enemy. Certainly, let the weak say I am strong, and certainly let the poor say I am rich." For God said, "You surely are."

"For there is a sound of humility that is rising amongst My people. I have waited for it and waited for it." And the Spirit of God said, "This year--2007, you shall see this cloud the size of a man's hand, and it shall fill the sky. Yes, yes, yes it shall fill the sky." And the Lord says, "It shall come to pass that you will outrun the chariots of Ahab, and you will outrun the chariots of Jezebel." And God said, "Those that have taken the land that belongs to My people and the land that belongs to My house, the inheritance that they have stolen--shall now be returned to My people," says the Lord.

For the Spirit of God says, "When the enemy came in to steal, to take away from you, little did he know that he had trespassed and because of this," says the Lord, "I will raise up a double anointing because he trespassed. And you that have lost your properties and those that have struggled," God said, "look at this year--it is a year of acceleration. It is a year of marked multiplication."

I will raise up a house for every expression

"And even in this house where I stand, and I have sent My prophets, and you have opened up your doors to the prophets and the teachers of this age, to train the young men and women to go to the four corners of the earth--they surely shall." But God said, "No ordinary people are being raised up. I could not do this in L.A., I could not do this in San Francisco, and I could not do this in New York." God said, "I had to take a place outside the cities of squandering and smoke--taken them outside the cities of those that would be the money changers of this hour and bring them to a remote town. I will send hundreds and I will send thousands, and they will say, 'Go to Redding for there is a place, Bethel--we will meet the Lord, and we will be changed."

For God said, "Your place of pain shall be turned into a place of reign. There are four pieces of property that I have unlocked" and God says, "one is 85 miles from here, the other is not too far, as well as the third. There are four pieces of property that I will grant to this house because the enemy said, 'I will take away from them in the beginning.' Now at the end, I will give, give, give, and give again. I will raise up a house for every expression. I will raise up a place where the elderly can be ministered to. I will raise up a place where the fatherless can come. I will raise up a place where the government will say, 'Let us send them there for rehabilitation.' And you will be what the Church was meant to be. I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it," says the Lord!

The Spirit of God says, "For these things that I will raise up in this end time--I will cause My people to come and rush to places in remote villages." For God said, "I will move there and then I will send them into the cities." And God said, "Every city in this Nation will be shaken because there will always be an abundance of salt--grace that I will grant unto this Nation."

What I'm about to give My Church and My people has been hidden for the centuries

But listen to me now, this house has been marked and set aside. And I listened to the conversation of principalities and I said, "Why is it that they wonder so much about this little place; why is it that they are so concerned? Would they say it is filled with mountains and snow? What is it that causes them to fear?" I hear the conversation of principalities, of municipalities and forces saying, "This place is dangerous. This place is no longer a wilderness."

"For under the ground, there is running something very rich that the enemy does not want you to tap into," says the Lord. "Under your ground, there is a source," and God said, "in the properties that I give to you, it shall be suddenly changed from the value of $1.2 million to $7 and $8 million overnight," says the Lord. "And they shall say, 'Did you know, did you know what was in the ground?'" God said, "Wait and see, for what I'm about to give My Church and My people has been hidden for the centuries and only now to be revealed and manifested because of the manifestation of the sons of God that shall come forth," says the Spirit of the Living God.

God said, "I have kept something for this time and for this age and for this generation, something that Paul saw, cherished, took into his hands, and even as he was dying said, 'Lord that I may see this day.'" God said, "This day is now upon this generation. I am unlocking something that has been kept for the centuries" and God said, "which will affect nations at once--not one individual at a time, not one community at a time, but nations at a time. The miraculous intervention of God by the power of resurrection is going to be the proof."

"This is something that shall cause men to be afraid and say, 'We never dreamed that men could do the things that they are doing now and that women could do the things that they are doing now.'" God said, "They saw your day, and this hour it is being unlocked for this generation. This thing that I have kept for this hour and for this time," God said, "shall be received by a people who shall make it precious and keep it precious. For it is precious in My sight," says the Spirit of the Living God.


For as Elisha came down from the mountain when he had been with Elijah and he had seen the disappearance of Elijah, he came down to a city, and the men and the prophets of that city said, "Let us go and search for your master." They wanted to bring back what they were acquainted with, what they loved. They wanted Elijah back. They sent 50 strong men to look for him. Elisha was embarrassed, he said, "Don't go, he's gone, it's over." Why is it that we try to capture the past, we try to keep it in existence? When in fact, we should be trying to capture the future and bring it into existence.

Something that this Nation and the world has not seen in Christ is about to be manifested through you and I. It is going to shake the nations.

God needs a fresh new vessel--unlearned and has no religious training whatsoever.

God said, "I'm going to touch cities, and I'm going to start in the United States of America, where barrenness will be changed overnight--spiritual barrenness will be changed overnight by recognizing where God is and the fact that He's about to do His greatest work in this Nation."

The Eagle-Dove


If you find this article intriguing and or a word for you - please let me know at eileen@heaven07.com Thank you.

The Eagle-Dove is bringing the Spirit of Holiness that will usher in the power of the decreed word in the Apostolic movement that we have yet to experience."

An Open Vision of the East Coast

This past month of March, the Lord came to me in an open vision. I heard a sound of what I understood as Native American drums and music, and I saw a white Eagle-Dove soaring over the East Coastline of the United States of America. The airborne Eagle-Dove was hovering on the Mid-East Coastline, just over the waters. His white wings were huge and extended in soaring position. As he gently moved, he flapped his wings with an authoritative movement fashioning the winds to shift. The winds were strong and stirred up the waters, creating white waves to go beyond their normal limits, and together (the winds and waves), they made a sound that I had not heard before.

The sound caused the waves to breakout onto the East Coast of America. Unlike waves that come in and go back out, these waves were like no other I've seen nor heard before. Their movement was different. The waves entered in and onto the land, then were transformed into a constant continuously flowing white river that moved across the Northeastern states, breaking towards the Southern states, and then heading Westward. Though the waves were gushing white waters, they also seemed like thick oil, flowing seamlessly. The endless waters went to some places, yet it missed others.

As if time had sped up right before my eyes, I saw a time-lapse simulation of spring flowers unfolding and expanding into mature flowers of full bloom. Where the waters would go, new flowers would open up, and they would multiply changing and reshaping into full color in time-lapse speed. The river was ever moving and was headed to the Western Coast of America.

I believe the Lord is revealing to us that there is a new move of the Holy Spirit about to hit the United States of America, entering in through the East gate (Ezekiel 43:1-2). The white Eagle-Dove was gentle, yet with fire in His eyes, He was also powerful. The Dove representing the Holy Spirit or the Spirit of Holiness is a bird of promise and represents a powerful truth (Acts 2:39). Together, the Eagle and the Dove represent the gentle, yet powerful influence and authority of complete purity or the Spirit of Holiness.

As extraordinary as the white Eagle-Dove is, so is this move of the Holy Spirit, incomparable and without equal to any other we have seen or heard before. The shift in the wind indicated the move is swift, quick, powerful, influential, authoritative, and coming in the breath from the inspiration of God (Ezekiel 37). The Eagle-Dove is the Spirit of the Lord. It is God's voice upon the waters (Revelation 1:15). For it is He who commands and raises up the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves of the sea (Psalm 107:25).

The Sound

I believe God has always led His people forward with a sound. Adam and Eve heard the sound of the Lord walking in the garden (Genesis 3:8). "And suddenly there was a sound from Heaven, like a rushing mighty wind...." Acts 2:2. "And the sound of His word was like the noise of a multitude of people or the roaring of the sea," Daniel 10:6. "...God's voice was like 'the sound' of many waters," Revelation 1:15. "I heard a sound like a vast throng, like the boom of many pounding waters," Revelation 19:6.

Whenever I hear the sound of the Native American drums and music, the Lord is usually speaking to me about the land, and in this case, our land, the United States of America. The Spirit is saying that change will come to our land through the release of the sound in this move of God. Sound is so important because it breaks through. This is why we see the enemy target worship leaders, worship teams, and sound systems in order to stop "the release of the sound" that the enemy knows will lead God's people forward and change every circumstance under the sun! (Ecclesiastes 12:13).

Time Is Speeding Up

"I am coming...(swiftly, speedily)" Revelation 22:20. The Body of Christ is in a season of acceleration even now. I believe God is speeding up time and this is a critical hour! It is high time now to awaken out of our sleep (Romans 13:11). The flower heads unfolding into maturity represents the acceleration of time for the seed harvest bringing in new life of not only the unsaved, but also of the saints quickly maturing into the fullness of Christ (Ephesians 1).

The Matchless Move of God

The sound of the waters speak of God's voice (Revelation 1:15) and the winds (The Holy Spirit) causing the waters and the movement of God to go beyond "normal limits," as the Holy Spirit is boundless and without measure (John 3:34). Again, this continuous flow, thick like oil, represents the endless momentum of the costly anointing of the Holy Spirit where people will be healed, changed, and yes, raised from the dead by the Spirit of Holiness in America (Romans 1:4).

The constant flowing river that was streaming across the U.S. was actually moved by the people through the release of the new sound! The sound carried the waves--the sound waves and the resonance influence of power! (John 7:38-39). The sound of this move will bring healing, abundant new life, ushering in the end-time harvest, and bringing increase and multiplication--a true characteristic of the Holy Spirit (Acts 9:31). This move has to do with the inheritance of our land (Ezekiel 47:9, 22-23, Psalm 46:3-4). This will be a matchless move of the Spirit of Holiness, unlike any other move we have seen or heard of.

The Warning

I asked the Lord, why did this move go to some places and miss others? The Spirit of the Lord said that this is the warning. Because this move has not yet been seen nor heard, it will look and sound different. Because it will not be familiar, some will easily reject it as some have been de-sensitized or have lost their sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, and this move will swiftly pass them by.

Being critical, judgmental, and opinionated would be the same as dishonoring Him. Not clearing a path or preparing the way for the Lord would be the same as dishonoring Him. Why would He come where He is not welcome? This would give no place for the Eagle-Dove to land, the river to flow, or new life to take place, thus this move would swiftly move on by.

The Promise

The Spirit of the Lord says that the Eagle-Dove will come, will create, and will bring new life even to the dry places as He was given "HONOR." To those who would recognize and HONOR this new move of the Holy Spirit, by faith, they will be the ones to see the Glory of God and see the harvest bring increase and multiplication through resurrected life, and indeed great change will come to our cities and nation (Acts 9:31).

Positioned for the Move of God

There are strategic things we can do to prepare for this move. First, I believe the Lord is saying to, "Pray it in and pray it through." Intercession and worship combined will position us for the release of the new sound as we are in His Presence. So we must release the Sons of Zadok, allowing for an opportunity for "the sound" to come through the Holy Spirit and make room for the Glory of God.
In our homes and in our churches, we must understand that we will hear His Voice while in His Presence. We need the release of spontaneous worship and intercession to usher in this move of God. This will be difficult for those who feel they must "stick with the program." Those positioned to give room and time for worship and intercession will be like the reaper who overtakes the sower (Isaiah 55:10). As the disciples waited in the upper room for something they have never seen or heard before, so must we give place and time for the new sound to come in. How? Heed the warning!

What Must We Do? Heed the Warning

The key then is to "honor" the Holy Spirit. Understanding how to truly honor the Holy Spirit will release the gushing forth of the reviving oil of the move of God. America, we must heed the warning, for we do not want the move of God to pass us by. As distinctive as the white Eagle-Dove is, so will this move of Holiness be. What is seen and heard may look or sound different, and we must be open and our minds renewed to the new wine. No one puts new wine in old wine skins. We must fully understand the importance, the definition, and the application of "honoring the Holy Spirit."

Where is Honor Found?

"Wisdom will bring you to honor."

I Chronicles 16:27, "Honor and majesty are (found) in His presence; strength and joy are (found) in His sanctuary." To fear (reverently worship) the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Wisdom will bring you to honor (Proverbs 4:7). Riches and honor are found in wisdom (Proverbs 3:16, 8:18).

It's time to release the Sons of Zadok! Sons of Zadok minister under the great High Priest, Jesus. Only the Sons of Zadok were to minister to God. Eli ministered to the people. Zadok ministered to God (Ezekiel 44). "Who will ascend into the Presence of the Lord or who shall stand in His Holy Place?" Psalm 24:3. Its rewards are different--instead of accolades from men, Sons of Zadok find accolades from the Lord through His Presence (Ezekiel 44:29). Sensitivity to the Spirit of God and determination to have Jesus as their only Lord is their secret and power. Demonstration in the Holy Ghost and power is not the unusual, but rather the ordinary for the Sons of Zadok. They minister to God through their sacrifices and their leadership, all the while walking in holiness. Their prayers are mingled with their sacrifices (worship).

The Earth Split With The Sound

1 Samuel 1-4 tells us that the Sons of Eli represents the flesh-religion apart from God and the Sons of Zadok represent a spiritual heritage based on intimacy with God. That which is precious to Eli (the system) is its people and its goods. That which is precious to the Sons of Zadok is their vows to God, and they have one rule--they must obey the voice of the Lord (Zechariah 6:15).

Righteousness and rejection of the system characterize the Sons of Zadok. Eli ministers to the people and Zadok ministers to the Lord. The system always substitutes something to take the place or modify the real thing. Righteousness is fluid like a river. Ezekiel 47 shows the origin in the Throne Room of the Temple of God. Sons know that one does not "take time to pray" because there simply is no time without it. We were made to commune with God. Religion/the system can only minister to man. In Eli's times, holiness was not emphasized. Zadok does not practice "being in" God's Presence, they just "live in" His Presence.

Everywhere Zadok and his Sons find themselves, there is great honor and blessing. I Kings 1:39-40 says, "And Zadok, the priest, took a horn of oil out of the tabernacle, and anointed Solomon. And they blew the trumpet; and all the people said, 'Long live King Solomon.' And all the people played on flutes, and rejoiced with great joy, so that the earth split with the sound of it." Talk about the sound being released through their worship and intercession! We need to release the Sons of Zadok in houses of prayer and worship.

Where is the Eagle-Dove Now?

I asked the Lord where the Eagle-Dove is now. The Spirit of the Lord says, "He is hovering over the face of the waters (Genesis 1:2) of the East Coastline of America, and the winds are beginning to blow." Remember, it will be quick! East Coast--Get Ready! Get ready! Get Ready! As the East goes, so goes America! To them who believe, they will see the Glory of the Lord (John 11:40).

Summation:
God is preparing us for such a move of the Spirit of Holiness like we have never known before (Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17). This is the power that will raise the dead here in America. It is He who is preparing us to live in the times of the third-day resurrection power (Hosea 6:1-3). He has torn, He has stricken, and after two days, He will revive us, quicken us, and give us life so that we may live in His sight, before His Face. This takes resurrection power.

I believe the Eagle-Dove is bringing the Spirit of Holiness that will usher in the power of the decreed word in the Apostolic movement that we have yet to experience. New life will spring up in areas extremely fast, and America will experience (as the church did in the days of Acts) such increase and multiplication before our very eyes. God is releasing His Sound on the waters. I believe this is a release of the Rivers of Life flowing out from the Throne Room (Daniel 7:9-10).

Sin releases death, which is the nature of man without the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit of Holiness releases life, which is the Spirit that raised Christ from the dead (Romans 1:4, 8:2). To the degree that the Holy Spirit is in you is to the degree that the Holy Spirit flows from you. For those positioned to honor this move, they will see the fullness of Christ and walk in resurrection power. To those who believe, they are the ones who will see the Glory (John 11:40).

But it is our choice. There is no middle ground. Will we continue to be what we have been or will we become what God wants us to become? America, like Daniel, if we determine in our heart that we will not defile ourselves, God will make known to us the solution to our problems (Daniel 1:8, 2:23).

"We must put aside pleasure seeking lifestyles if we want to make an impact in our world and be faithful servants of the Most High God."

"We must put aside pleasure seeking lifestyles if we want to make an impact in our world and be faithful servants of the Most High God."


Comfort, disappointment, and fear are three of the greatest enemies of our souls. We can be lulled into ineffectiveness for the Kingdom of God in the comfort of our lives. We can become weary and stagnant from affecting our spheres in this world because of disappointment. Fear can paralyze us to retreat from what we must face--the battle of life, Jesus, and the Word of God.


Comfort

One of the devices of the enemy is to engage us and consume us with "self." Self wants to be comforted. Self desires the easy road and the easy life. Self wants to protect itself by not going out on a limb or really ever stretching our faith. Self wants to live a balanced life neither hot nor cold...that is a scary thought according to Revelation 3. I like the way the Message version reads:

Revelation 3:15-17, "I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You're not cold, you're not hot--far better to be either cold or hot! You're stale. You're stagnant. You make me want to vomit. You brag, 'I'm rich, I've got it made, I need nothing from anyone,' oblivious that in fact you're a pitiful, blind beggar, threadbare and homeless."

Comfort enthusiasts are often deep rooted in pride. They tend to think that their life is their own, and they are blinded to the fact that their very existence is the Lord's, and everything they have is His as well. One of the things we must be reminded of, time and again, is that we are His, our every breath is His. He may desire for us to give up all for His sake. He may want us to leave jobs, friends, and family, while traveling to distant lands to serve Him.

We must put aside pleasure seeking lifestyles if we want to make an impact in our world and be faithful servants of the Most High God.

Matthew 6:33, "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need."

If we seek His Kingdom first and always, then He will give us what we need in our journey with Him. We are not alone, He is always with us. If we have plenty, it is for a purpose, and He will direct the plenty because it is His to direct. If we have little, then there is a reason, and we can trust that He will provide all that we need for His purposes.

We must put aside comfort when it gets in the way of our purpose. We must not seek comfort, but we must have a deep concern when comfort stays around too long. This is not to be confused with peace. I am referring to comfortable lifestyles that keep us from advancing in glorifying the Lord in all that we do.

Disappointment

Disappointment and hopelessness seem to run together sometimes. We can fail to the point of finally giving up and not having hope for a bright future. Our God is the God of redemption, restoration, and brilliant futures for all of His people. Only in deception can we miss the fact that in Him, defeat is temporary and it often becomes strength for the journey.

Romans 8:28, "And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them."

Notice it says "everything" works together for the good of us. This means that despite the good things that come:

Defeat works together for the good,
Delay works together for the good,
Lack works together for the good,
Loss works together for the good,
Sickness works together for the good,
And finally, even death works together for the good for all of us, His children.

The Lord promises that the end result for all of us is triumphant, so be patient and be encouraged beloved of God.

Ecclesiastes 7:8, "Better is the end of a thing than the beginning of it, and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit."
the coming shift

The world is standing at the threshold of an unprecedented shift. In light of this reality, we must embrace fresh paradigms of change and uncover the passageway that leads from the "old" to the "new (more)

Fear

We have all heard the saying, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself." There is much truth in that statement. The enemy of our souls knows that if he can wrap us up in fear, that in effect, can disengaged us from the advancement of the Kingdom of God. Much of the fear we have is never realized, but can perpetuate real problems because we can no longer operate in faith when we have given fear a place in our lives. Remember, He is our Protector. I remember Jesus sleeping through the storm when fear had gripped the others.

Proverbs 3:24-26, "You'll take afternoon naps without a worry, you'll enjoy a good night's sleep. No need to panic over alarms or surprises, or predictions that doomsday's just around the corner, because GOD will be right there with you; He'll keep you safe and sound."

People of God, we do not need to live in fear. When it comes out of your mouth, rebuke yourself. I have witnessed so many in fear of what lies ahead in the future for them. They are literally consumed to the point that their faith and their production for God has been neutralized. We should live in His wisdom, and trust that He has you in His hands, because He does.

Running His Path

"Real freedom comes when God sets our heart free."

Psalm 119:32, "I run in the path of your commands, for you have set my heart free."

When we are set free by the Lord, it does not mean that we can do anything we want at anytime. We must not throw off all order and restraint, be self-indulgent, self-pleasing, and self-willed. That is not real freedom. That's slavery. It's slavery to self and it's slavery to sin.

Real freedom comes when God sets our heart free--free from the bondages of comfort, disappointment, and fear. The psalmist says, "You've set my heart free." What's the evidence? "I run in the path of your commands." When we are truly liberated by the grace of God and the power of God, it's not to please ourselves, it's not to do our own thing, but it's to be able to obey God in every way, freely and joyfully.


When we run the path of His commands, there is little room to be lavished in comfort, there is little time for discouragement, and fear is removed because faith and purpose have taken over. Let's advance His Kingdom regardless of what comes our way. When good things come, praise God, when devastation comes praise God.

Psalm 42:5:

"Why am I discouraged?
Why is my heart so sad?
I will put my hope in God!
I will praise him again--my Savior and my God!"
