Week away and a referral

While I am gone and my computer is staying home, (it's in the hospital being de-virused) I want to refer you to one of the BEST reads on the internet. Rheinhard Bonnke's "Notes".

They are full of life and inspire at the very core.

You should be able to see them all here: http://www.facebook.com/notes.php?id=210552700257

Unrealistic Faith

I clearly heard the Lord say to me his morning that if you depend on anything but JESUS in every area you are being unrealistic. If you don't believe in miracles you are being unrealistic. If you try to balance faith with unbelief and walk a center lukewarm line you are being unrealistic. If you try everything else and then fall until you end up with Jesus it's unrealistic.

It is unrealistic to be tentative in faith toward God. Your angels on assignment will hang their heads and wait for faith to be released before they can go into action. Angels cannot move in response to doubt and unbelief. Only Faith will move them.

There is no middle of the road in Faith. It's all or none.

Sometimes the Subject of your Prayers will Talk to You

We need to listen to the voice of those people and things as they speak to us. Sometimes God will use situations to help us understand what his purposes are.

So, we need to be ready to listen.

God speaks in ways we do not understand.

The Enemy ALWAYS overreaches

In pondering what's happening in the world. Iran, USA, even Europe.

I see the enemy's hand.

He plays hard. Mean.

But he has this flaw. He becomes confident. Cocky even.

And he always overreaches.

Not that he doesn't do damage. He does. But he always overplays his hand and when God calls him. Goes all in with Jesus. The enemy is bankrupt.

He always was. It just looked bad. 3 aces are like that.

I have a sense that is what is going on RIGHT NOW.

You were created exactly as you were for the Glory of God

In a discussion regarding the whole problem of birth defects, genetic issues, even ugly, even short, or anything else these conclusions came out.

If you believe for a second that God didn't know what he was doing when he brought you into the world, that you are or were a mistake, that he could have done better.

You are exactly what you are supposed to be. You are God's best. You are his favorite.

Am I a Spiritual Desperado?

This morning I read a stirring post from Nancy Minor. It hits me in a place I am right now. She seems to be speaking to me and many I know who are of Heidi Baker's situation in mindset:

Desperation
1 a: having lost hope b: giving no ground for hope 2 a: moved by despair b: involving or employing extreme measures in an attempt to escape defeat or frustration 3: suffering extreme need or anxiety 4: involving extreme danger or possible disaster 5: of extreme intensity

Desperado
DESPERADO, n. A desperate fellow; a furious man; a madman; a person urged by furious passions; one fearless, or regardless of safety.

The Lord spoke to Pastor Rusty during intercession last Sat and asked him, "How desperate are you?" He seeks the Lord steadily, hungrily...so if God is asking him that question... I sit up and take notice!

How desperate are you? How intense about Knowing Him? How Hungry? To what extreme will you go to escape the status quo? Will people say you are a madman, in your pursuit of God? Are you urged on by furious passions of the Spiritual kind? Or are you plagued with passions of the lesser kind?
..............

Heidi Baker talks of living a lifestyle of " If you don't show up God, we're all dead." Since she lives in Mozambique in a Moslem Nation,caring for 7000 orphans, I think she has hit on something!
Read the whole thing.

Repairs not Replacement

I became aware of the reality of healing and restoration. God repairs. He could replace. Just create a whole new you. Of course he does that when we are born again. We are a new creation.

But then we get sick. We are injured. We suffer.

Seems like Father is in the constant repair business.

But even in the ultimate there are scars in His hands and a wound in His side. And sometimes we walk with a limp.

He is repairing us. Restoring. Healing. And he wants us to remember. So sometimes we limp.

Times and Seasons out of Time

We live in Time. There are seasons of life. Seasons of the year. Seasons coming and going with predictable regularity.

One thing about a season, it starts, and it ends. It comes to a place where there is no more. Time ends. It's over.

Life, Weather, Situations.

Knowing the times and the seasons of life is essential. Redeem it for the days are evil.

Seasons do come to an end. We often say to each other, Oh, it's just a season. Yes, everything is. But it's not yet the end, Until...the END.

Healing will NEVER be perfect until we attain perfection - over there

I was contemplating the conversation being had in another blogworld regarding healing. I think that people don't understand it. They believe healing will be perfect. That whatever happens, whatever ailment exists that we will somehow be healed perfectly of the dis-ease, ailment or oppression of the devil.

I heard the Lord say this morning that it is a flawed theology that requires things to be so.

I can think of several situations scripturally where people were touched for healing by God and became better. Just not perfect.

Jacob walked with a limp. Lazarus died again. The man saw but he saw men as trees walking. Hezekiah was sick and got an extension but he eventually passed.

Now, the question I asked is, why isn't healing complete. The Lord said, it is, we are to contend for more, for completeness and we will get it --- ultimately.

But sometimes we must walk with somewhat of a limp. Still have a lump. Still hurt. But, much much better.

When I watched and was engrossed with Lakeland a year ago I saw people get better. Doing things they couldn't do. But still not perfect.

It is in our best interests to contend with the oppression of the Devil in sickness. We just should contend and expect God to do what he does better than we do now.

This is NOT a lack of faith, this is faith that God will complete it. We can stand on that.

A case of Intentional Blindness

It is a basic tenant of the Bible that one of the tactics of the devil is to blind unbelievers from seeing truth.

That much is clear from this (insertions in red are mine):
2 Corinthians 4:3 If the Good News we preach is hidden behind a veil, it is hidden only from people who are perishing (perishing from the purpose God put in them when he created them and saved them). 4 Satan, who is the god of this world, has blinded the minds of those who don’t believe (other than what they have been told they should believe by the seminaries they attended). They are unable to see the glorious light of the Good News (that Jesus has given them much more on this side of the veil than they are accessing). They don’t understand this message about the glory of Christ, who is the exact likeness of God (or the fact that we, they, are to be changed from glory to glory into his very likeness, doing the works that HE foreordained them to do).
What is much more discouraging are believers who are very close to finding truth and then for some strange reason or another intentionally reach into a drawer filled with tradition and theologies wroth by man and remove a fully opaque blindfold putting it on with a satisfaction that they are safe.

This is not new. Men and women from the beginning of time recorded in the Bible have sought truth outside of God rather than seeking truth in God. Therefore they languish, die before their time and live in less than was intended for them.

This isn't about heaven and hell. This is all about living and the abundant life on this side of the veil.

I have just had a "blogversation" with a dear man of God who is a friend, about the power of the spoken word in influencing events, situation and particularly for healing in our bodies. He has just stumbled upon a truth that could set him free. He seems to have reached back into the drawer. He has drawn back:
Hebrews 10:39 But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who believe
The Blindfold of tradition is firmly in place.

This happens in many places where there are traditions of men that have trampled the blood of Jesus underfoot. About communion (It's really HIM), about baptism (believe and THEN be baptised), about healing (It's always Gods will to heal just as it's always God's will that everyone be saved), about the power of our words (Mountains and trees need talking to), about the gifts of the spirit (everyone must be gifted and all should be), about the spiritual building up by praying in tongues (I wish you all spoke in tongues Apostle Paul said and Jude said it will build you up in the most Holy Faith) and a host of other issues that keep people in bondage because of tradition.

Again, this isn't about heaven and hell..it's about fulfilling our destiny on the earth. You can't do it well when you do it blindfolded and with one hand tied behind your back. Even JESUS wouldn't have handicapped himself that way, except for the Cross and only his suffering and death brings glory to the Father in Heaven.

This is a Holy Ghost word.

DON'T Look Back

For those who don't know her, Brenda Craig is an amazing oracle of God. She says what He says. That's the essence of the Prophetic.

The word of the Day for TODAY is so on the money, it's amazing. Don't look back. You should bookmark her link above and read every day what she writes. It will encourage you.

Beloved, when I come with My hovering presence and darkness is separated from the light I can begin to build and bring substance into your life. Creation was accomplished by building one day upon the other with each new day built on the last. Light came first and substance began to form. In your life when light comes—when true revelation comes—darkness is permanently separated. This makes way for way for miraculous and transcendent change.

In this process of transformation, you cross your Jordan and don’t look back (Joshua 3:1-4:8). Moving into the Promised Land, you take back what is rightfully yours. You move on to the next conquest invigorated by victory and your newly embraced identity of sonship.

Time has come to fill the whole earth with My image and you are an intricate part of doing so. Every one of My sons and daughters are of utmost importance. The more who know this the brighter My light will be. Light upon light upon light and soon the whole earth will be filled with My glory. Without what you have to offer being a part of this manifestation things won’t be as bright as they should be so be the light you are and shine.

Yes, My light is separating all darkness. It is separating all dark places that have labeled you with an orphan heart. You are no longer an orphan but a son adopted into My Kingdom and you call Me Abba Father (Romans 8:15 Galatians 4:6). You are not a slave to any darkness. You are My offspring. You are My son—My daughter.

Therefore, arise in the beauty of who you are and let the world and all it contains know I own the earth and the fullness thereof. You are to be My living proof. Let this sink into your heart. Arise and be an Esther. Arise and be a David. Better yet, be a living example of Me. It is who I say you are…

“For all who are being led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry out, “Abba! Father!” The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are children of God” (Romans 8:14-16 NASB)

Prosperity IS

I visited Pastor yesterday. We began talking of prosperity and what that meant. True prosperity.

I told him of challenges in that area I was walking thru and what it all meant.

Then, the question came, am I prosperous? I guess according to those in much of the rest of the world I am. But, to me, to him, my prosperity is deep and rich because of what I have in Jesus. I have never been more prosperous in my life and yet my bankbook would call me a liar. Who's report will you believe?

Many in countries who have nothing financially are prosperous beyond belief in the Spirit and they look upon the USA as poverty stricken.

Maybe, it's time to think about what true PROSPERITY IS...

Sometimes Plucking from the Fire -- Burns

I have been in travail for a friend. I wondered why it seems like I have to go where she is emotionally to stand in the gap. To step into the fire.

It can't be done at some emotional distance.

Then the Lord said, "This is why I came to earth to live in your fire, to feel what you feel, to suffer with you and to carry all your pain, all your sorrow".

I got a glimpse of why as a carrier of the Spirit of God and the Spirit of God that carries me of what it really means when he carried our griefs and bore our sorrows.

So if the fires of life burn me too as it burns others I care about, that's Jesus manifesting himself.

Evenso,come Lord Jesus....

Prophecy Explained

Sometimes people do not understand the Prophetic. They think it's something spooky. It's not.

If you stumble on the words, Prophecy or Prophetic, then insert one of these words instead.... You will find it to be useful and perhaps more clear.

  • Encouragement
  • Hope
  • Clarification
  • Confirmation
  • Correction (seldom)
  • Instruction (or direction but very seldom)

I hope that helps, it's not that hard, but the important part is, it's not teaching. It's not preaching. It's a word that comes from the Heart of God to the person who needs it. It's what God says.

A quiet prophetic

Prophets love to say nice things to encourage people.

Prophetically, there isn't much nice sometimes.

So nothing much is said.

Elijah List is nearly naked of posts.

Isn't that interesting.

Smith, "I'm not moved except by the mighty word of GOD"

Smith Wigglesworth said these Words "There are four principles we need to maintain: First, read the Word of God. Second, consume the Word of God until it consumes you. Third believe the Word of God. Fourth, act on the Word."

A Green Prison

God is our natural habitat. In Him we live and move and have our being. Until we find Him, as we do when we obey the gospel, we are caged. People everywhere are beating their heads against the bars of their own materialism and unbelief. Their very money becomes their prison. Deep calls to deep, and height to height, within our souls. Our art, our poetry, our works of beauty are the expressions of imprisoned creatures who remember the glories of the free air and the mountains. While good in themselves, these expressions remain mere reflections of reality until a soul comes into salvation. Jesus is the reality behind all that we see or do. The gospel releases us from bondage, allowing us to come into our true element.

The symbol of Ministry has become the Microphone instead of the Cross

In the last few days like an amplifier of the spirit I have begun seeing Microphones in every picture I see of every minister, pastor, Evangelist, teacher, prophet's hand. Don't believe me? Look at websites of ministries world wide. I won't post them. It would be an embarrassment.

Every single one of them features a picture of the man or woman of God with a microphone while they are preaching or teaching. WHY?

I understand the technical necessity. You have to be heard. I get that.

But, it's like God is saying, Who is being glorified in these pictures? I know who is not.

Where are the pictures of these ministers ministering, laying hands on the sick, sitting with a lost soul, praying with someone, waiting on God even prostrate on the floor or quietly offering a word of prophecy to a hungry soul who needs a word from God?

This is not a condemnation, but a correction. Try thinking in your ministry in terms of who God is and not who you are. OK? I don't often say this, but this is the word of the Lord for Someone.

God is Jealous for his name and his Honor

I speak the word of the Lord this morning. Father is not content to be an afterthought. He wants you to know that it is for his NAMES SAKE that he does what he does on the earth. He is jealous for his honor. The Command of God is this:
Exodus 20:4-6 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image,
or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that
is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the
earth: {5} Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve
them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the
iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and
fourth generation of them that hate me; {6} And showing mercy
unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Exodus 34:14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the
LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:

Deuteronomy 6:15 (For the LORD thy God is a jealous God among
you) lest the anger of the LORD thy God be kindled against
thee, and destroy thee from off the face of the earth.
He doesn't take lightly when people, particularly HIS people, those who call themselves by HIS name treat what he does on the earth as if it has no value, meaning or veracity. In particular in the Prophetic.

If the ungodly disdain the prophetic it is to their discredit, but for those called by his name to treat God's commands, encouragements and prophetic word like it has no value is inexcusable.

It happens because HIS PEOPLE think what Father does is for THEM. Because they are deserving, because they are the apple of his eye and HE will do what he does for Their Sake. This human centric spirit has caused at the same time false pride and false humility rooted in not knowing who God really is. That he is Jealous and does what he does for HIS NAMES SAKE.

Notice all that God does for “His name sake”:

  1. He leads us in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake (Psalm 23:3).
  2. He pardon’s our iniquity for His name’s sake (Psalm 25:11).
  3. He leads and guides us for His name’s sake (Psalm 31:3).
  4. He purges away our sins for His name’s sake (Psalm 79:9).
  5. He saved Israel for His name’s sake, so that He could make His mighty power to be known (Psalm 106:8).
  6. He does things for us for His name’s sake (Psalm 109:21).
  7. He quickens us for His name’s sake (Psalm 143:11).
  8. He defers His anger for His name’s sake (Isaiah 48:9).
  9. He does not abhor us or break His covenant for His name’s sake (Jeremiah 14:21).
  10. He works powerfully for His name’s sake so that it would not be polluted before the heathen (Ezekiel 20:9,14,22,44; 36:22).
  11. He forgives us for His name’s sake (1 John 2:12).

He says this most clearly in Ezekiel 36:22-31

This is what the Sovereign LORD says: It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am going to do these things, but for the sake of my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations where you have gone. 23 I will show the holiness of my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, the name you have profaned among them. Then the nations will know that I am the LORD, declares the Sovereign LORD, when I show myself holy through you before their eyes. 24 " 'For I will take you out of the nations; I will gather you from all the countries and bring you back into your own land. 25 I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you will be clean; I will cleanse you from all your impurities and from all your idols. 26 I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. 27 And I will put my Spirit in you and move you to follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. 28 You will live in the land I gave your forefathers; you will be my people, and I will be your God. 29 I will save you from all your uncleanness. I will call for the grain and make it plentiful and will not bring famine upon you. 30 I will increase the fruit of the trees and the crops of the field, so that you will no longer suffer disgrace among the nations because of famine. 31 Then you will remember your evil ways and wicked deeds, and you will loathe yourselves for your sins and detestable practices. 32 I want you to know that I am not doing this for your sake, declares the Sovereign LORD.

The important thing to note is that God does what he does to and for us because of HIS NAMES SAKE. It matters to him.

He causes then those who follow him to do what THEY do for His name's sake.
  1. Be hated of all men for His name’s sake (Matthew 10:22, Mark 13:13, Luke 21:17).
  2. Forsake houses, brethren, sisters, father, mother, wife, children, and lands for His name’s sake (Matthew 19:29).
  3. Be brought before kings and rulers for His name’s sake (Luke 21:12).
  4. Be persecuted for His name’s sake (John 15:21).
  5. Suffer for His name’s sake (Acts 9:16).
  6. Be sent forth taking nothing of the Gentiles for His name’s sake (3 John 1:7).
  7. Patiently endure persecution for His name’s sake (Revelation 2:3).
  8. Labor without fainting for His name’s sake (Revelation 2:3).
If that is all true then what does that have to do with HIS name and HIS honor when HIS word is brought forth by the Prophets? The church on the earth has become deaf to HIS word. They listen to lesser lovers. God is a jealous God. He does not take it well when we start listening to Satan (his enemy), inclining our ear and heart toward Satan. Just as a person becomes upset and jealous when his spouse shows signs of unfaithfulness and starts flirting with other people even so God becomes upset and jealous when we show signs of unfaithfulness and start flirting with Satan.

That is what is happening and has happened. The church no longer hears what the Spirit says because they listen to the spirit of the world. News, Dr's, Secular Counselers, world....

And when the Prophetic Voices say, "Did I Not Say".....they see it as pride. They are critical of the prophet expressing the Jealousy of God for his Name and call it pride.

As a prophet I have no more pride in my gift than the Evangelist has pride when a person gives his or her heart to Jesus, than a Teacher when an AHA moment takes place during a class, than a Pastor does when someone's hurt heart is soothed and healed or than an Apostle does when by clear direction a situation is made right.

It is NOT honoring to the name of God to treat what God has given as if it had no value.

IF a prophet, pastor, Evangelist, teacher or apostle does anything at all for less than HIS NAMES SAKE, then it is sin. If however He expresses Jealously for the Name of the Lord, that is the heart of God.

I speak this by the spirit of God and if it is rebuke, take it as such. We need to get ourselves off the throne and Put HIM back.

The Canyon Vision - A must read.....I endorse this vision

The "CANYON" VISION
==================

I saw many, many people running through a deep and dark canyon, left and right bordered with steep walls that looked insurmountable. It looked like that they were fleeing from what appeared to be a terrible calamity, or a powerful army chasing them. It seemed that they could
not take a lot of stuff with them. There was only one escape route: The stampede ahead. This image, that I conceived in my spirit became larger, stronger and ever more powerful. It appeared to me as if the entire world was trapped in this canyon. Every race on earth was there: mothers with children, young people and particularly many well dressed people in suits and ties, like they just had left the office. The weak, the older and handicapped were falling behind.
A lot of people gave up and were left behind. These were the ones blocking the passerby that pressed ahead. There were constant melees and tumults in the canyon. Some of the folks were
unscrupulous, trampling on others and killing others. Everyone was only looking out for themselves and cared only for himself. It was a horrific scene. Here it was that I prayerfully asked the Lord, Lord what is this?

And the Holy Spirit said to me: "These are the peoples of the world, they are all fleeing. There is no way out and hence they do everything to push ahead. They are stepping over dead bodies and compassion is no more,because seeking survival is what they all want."

I heard a voice from above, that said to me: "Tell it to your people and all listen to you. Tell it to the ones that believe in Me, that they should step aside, stop running at once and stay put at the wall, making way for the runners. That's how they will safeguard them. Let these desperate masses of people only pass you by. Let them run that run, you can not stop them.They know not that they are all running into disaster. They do not know what's ahead of them, what to expect and what it is that awaits them at the end of the canyon and that it is a dead end with no way out.
It is more horrendous, more vicious than that what they thought they were leaving. They all will end up in a mass grave.

I watched - as some of them that listened to me stopped running. They clinged to the wall and waited until all of that was over. I even cried out to the ones that ran by me: "Stop running, move aside.." However, most of these cries vanished in the melee. The desperation of the people was
tremendous. Nobody could stop these running masses. Everyone was trying to save its bare life - countless masses of people, thrusted by its panic.

Some of the "storming troops" even resented my intervening and yelled:"Don't stop these people!"

When finally everyone passed, I heard from the distance wailing, moaning and a flat roaring. Oh my god, what's that? I asked prayerfully.

I heard a voice, saying: "They have not listened to Me and followed their own feelings and the masses and they all fell into the abyss where there is no way out."

And God's spirit further said: "But you, my children, turn around and return back to the things that you were running away from. All of that was panic and sheer desperation. They have been created by rumors and lies and you have fallen for these traps. "

"But you, that trust in Me", says the Lord, "do not have to be afraid about nothing." Even in the most impossible situations will I be with you and be of help. You are my "blessed" ones.

I have called you by your name and you are mine. I have called you from out of these masses. You have listened to My voice and I am your caretaker and provider. I want only the best for you. You belong to Me and you are not supposed to become entangled by the panic making world.

Go back to your tasks and do what I have commanded you to do! Live like I told you to live. Talk about Myself and not about problems! Rest in Me and keep staying with Me and do not run away from your problems," says the Lord.

Yours Joh.W.Matutis

Joyner on the fake media in America

"Since the secular media seems to have almost completely abandoned truth and objectivity, the resources are coming together for a Christian media that could quickly eclipse the quality and resources of all other media. These can all help through the coming times, but the main thing we can do to prepare for any circumstance is to develop relationships, first with God and then with His people". Rick Joyner

A Spirit of Discontent

I am finding myself in new places right now. Not good places. Places of discontent.

It means I am finding my bearings, I know who HE is. I must stay focused and centered on him.

There is little else I can do.

Discontent is a horrible place to be. I'm there right now.

Sometimes on Facebook

I'm new to facebook. I was pretty skeptical. But, it's a good place to be encouraged if you are careful who is or is not "Your Friend".

I am.

Here is just one hour's postings this morning. The word of the Lord is in this. I am thankful for the flow of his Spirit in this new Medium. This kind of thing happens every day.

I'm convinced the pure in heart shall see God. Purity + Passion = Revelation

burdened for the other 90% of the church that doesn't have a clue, doesn't know God and doesn't care to. Or perhaps I should say burdened for those who are sheltered from God by their leaders...Oh Lord that they know You and Your ways! I have been asking the Lord for a burden for the lost. But I have always had a burden for the "lost in church" People who don't know God intimately end up in my lap. I am good at leading people into a rededication and baptism of the Holy Spirit, but I have only had a small handful of conversions from people who admittedly did not know God.

There is coming a move of God that is going to sweep across our land. Miracles will take place that will stagger man and cause a Holy reverence to fall upon the people. Unusual manifestations of the Holy Ghost will cause men to fall upon their face and cry out to the maker of the universe! For the Lord Jesus Christ will be magnified above all and He will once again be lifted up and men will call upon His name.

I figure that's when His 2 x 4 anointing comes in lol... I ask for it often... I have lot's of duh moments..

Just heard the Spirit of the Lord say He is getting ready to explode in our lives...all those things you have been under pressure with have been necessary like a fuse is to dynamite...necessary like fire is necessary to like the fuse....whooo hooo...the fullness of God is coming & is nigh to our hearts and our lives..to experience it in ways we have longed for...get ready...do not be pessimistic..to him who believe.

when you let the monkeys run the jungle things get screwed up and the Lions get discouraged.

Sin takes away your tears, your ears, and your fears. You dull your emotional connection to the Lord. No longer connecting to God like you used to. Jesus seems boring if you were honest. You dull your sense of spiritual hearing! Preacher preaching and it goes in one ear and out the other. You dull your fear of the Lord! You no longer fear doing things you used to. Your heart becomes calloused and conscience seared!

Sometimes the Prophetic really Bites

Last night I hear a prophet give some words that I know are on the money.

BUT

When I heard him say what I heard and knowing some things about the situation he didn't know I realized that sometimes the Spirit of God nails things we don't even know about.

I feel bad for the person going thru the situation, I feel worse that the situation even exists.

God is not Mocked.

The Spirit of Mourning will Bind You

I was reading Kings and Chronicles looking for something. It came to me that when a king died, they were Buried with their fathers and after the funeral the mourning stopped.

Even King David mourned for his dead child, then put it all behind him.

That's mourning for a good king, for a child, for a good man or woman. There are people who when they die will not be mourned by many. Or any. I have known some.

They buried the murdered abortion Doctor. I didn't pray for his soul, it's not what we are to do. I didn't have compassion. He is dead. His life is over. He has been buried with his fathers.

Ecclesiastes says that there's a time to mourn, but it's not all the time.

We live in two dimensions. The temporal and the eternal (if we know Jesus). There will be no mourning in Heaven. I want to live on the other side of the veil. In light of eternity.

Constant mourning binds us from experiencing eternity on this side of the veil. It's a bondage.

I am prophesying to someone.....

Another Elisha Prophecy

There have been a lot of prophetic utterances regarding the relevance of Prophecy and this day we are moving thru.

Consider this by debra lowe:

Hear The Spirit Of The Lord;

Be still. Be still. Stop allowing this world system to dictate your thoughts and your movements. As you are quiet in My presence, you will begin to see what I am up to in your life. You will see what I Am requiring of you. Too much activity and not enough action. The enemy is trying to keep you busy in non-activity. Running, running, yet not covering enough territory. Do not run in fear or because of the lack of knowing! Wait, wait on Me. I Am the Way, and I will assist you in covering more and doing it with less of your energy spent. I need your mind to be leaned and set upon Me, not on the happenings that surround you. You must reign in the renegade thoughts that are damaging the soundness that I can keep you in, if you will meditate on Me and My Word. I want you to see the kind of man that you really are. Always you need to depend on My support. Give Me and Holy Spirit room to move and guide you. Soon even as 'times' get more difficult, those who have learned to wait and be still, will find that they are being preserved in their mind and heart. Men's hearts are failing them, literally, because of fear and the torment that comes from lack of knowing. Now is the time for My people to know that I Am faithful to My Word. I will uphold, preserve and sustain those who are still. You will rise up with wisdom and understanding and run with horses in the course that I have set for you. Out of what was meant for devastation shall arise prophets that are unashamed to proclaim My Word. Strong, bold and unafraid, under the mantle of Elisha. Detailed and precise as Isaiah. They will not care for their reputation, only Mine. My truth shall be their guideposts, at home, in the neighborhood and around the world, they will be constant.

Interpretation of the Vision of Obama

A Vision Right After President Obama Spoke in Cairo

I woke up early this morning to hear President Obama speak to the Muslim World. I wanted to hear it in real time. As he completed I received a disturbing Vision:

In the spirit I saw the President sit down after his speech. There were guards who stood by on both sides of the podium as he spoke. They were summarily executed as soon as he finished speaking. First by a cut into the shoulder then by beheading. These guards being sacrificed went willingly. They knew what was coming. They knew that upon the completion of the speech that they would die.

As the blood flowed on the dais, as the severed heads and the bodies fell to the ground, no one moved. No one felt it was unusual or unexpected. No one grieved for the fallen now dead guards. It was like they didn't' see it at all.

I have a friend who is prophetic who I trust that I submitted it to, here's what she saw in this vision:

Those two guards were angels. They are spiritually cut off from protecting Obama once he entered into this. Like he lost protection from heaven preventing his angels from being victorious.

I believe that the image of cutting down in the shoulder is to disable the angel before the death blow. That would be the arm that holds the sword. Then cutting the head from these beings means that there is no interest in bringing them back.

Sometimes a vision has many levels. This is what I saw in the Spirit early this morning. There may be other levels of meaning. I don't know. I'm just reporting out the vision.



Kelly, my prophet Friend, also gave this insight:

Shoulder is government, burden, rulership, authority

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 10:27
It shall come to pass in that day That his burden will be taken away from your shoulder,
And his yoke from your neck, And the yoke will be destroyed because of the anointing oil.

Isaiah 22:22
The key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder; So he shall open, and no one shall shut;
And he shall shut, and no one shall open.

Head is authority, thoughts, mind

Psalm 18:43
You have delivered me from the strivings of the people;You have made me the head of the nations;
A people I have not known shall serve me.

Psalm 23:5
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over.

Psalm 68:21
But God will wound the head of His enemies,The hairy scalp of the one who still goes on in his trespasses.

Psalm 110:6
He shall judge among the nations,He shall fill the places with dead bodies, He shall execute the heads of many countries.

Then I ran across this interesting passage... where were they according to the Euphrates out of curiosity? Anyhow ran across this...

Jeremiah 46:10
For this is the day of the Lord GOD of hosts, A day of vengeance, That He may avenge Himself on His adversaries. The sword shall devour; It shall be satiated and made drunk with their blood; For the Lord GOD of hosts has a sacrifice In the north country by the River Euphrates.

What were the guards wearing ?

What did they look like ?

Who beheaded them?

Was it an open vision, were your eyes open?



Blessings,

Vincent

Interesting question Vince.

They were wearing what I would describe as Egyptian robes. Long, White with gold sashes, They were noble, upright, straight, solid looking, Strong, Dominating, somber, at attention, on duty, unwavering.

Soldiers in black (kind of like ninjas) came up from behind them and executed them quickly and simultaneously.

There was no struggle. It was over in 2 seconds. What was hard is no one seemed to react at all.

When you asked I realize how vivid the vision was. No, my eyes were shut, it was in that half dream state. I was listening on my radio in my bed. But, it was vivid.

A visual parable - if we let the vision effect us - noting in what ways it effects us - that will open doors of understanding.

Very interesting vision.

I guess I normally just allow a vision or dream to speak to me over time.

It usually will become clear. I look at the Prophet Zachariah for a way to consider the visions I get.

I normally won't write about them, but sometimes....

I'll let it stew.

I do not yet get the interpretation, what the Lord is saying in and about
this, however it seems very clear that it was the speech which was
guarded, not the president.

there are some things clearly NOT depicted and one of these seems to be
that the guards were guarding the president...there also was no sense or
image of the president suddenly being without protection or endangered

and much seems to reveal the intended purpose and function of the
speech...and just how far it goes.

i seem to remember a speech just after 9/11 and being surprised at some
things said therein...

this is NOT interpretation but just some indications of some things
possibly being pictured there...I am not getting the interpretation = what
the LORD is saying in it.

i don't know what the speech was Gene because i hadn't listened, so i have no idea what was said. This is the thought of scriptures that came to me as i read through..

"Set a guard O Lord, over my mouth; keep watch over the door of my lips." (Psalm 141:3)

"He who guards his mouth preserves his life, But he who opens wide his lips shall have destruction." (Proverbs 13:3)

"Whoever guards his mouth and tongue keeps his soul from troubles." (Proverbs 21:23)

"... I will guard my ways, Lest I sin with my tongue; ..." (Psalm 39:1)

is it possible that it is this guard that had been slain in the vision..the guarding of the mouth, lips, speech? is it that these were willingly sacrificed and yet no one seemed to grieve or care that `life and death is in the power of the tongue'? which sets a course..

just some thoughts to ponder re the vision

blessings,

A Prophetic Image as I Listened to Pres Obama's Cairo Speech

As I listened to the President give his speech a vision rose up.

I saw the President sit down after his speech and the guards who stood by on both sides of the podium were executed. First by a cut into the shoulder then by beheading. These guards being sacrificed went willingly. They knew what was expected. They knew what was coming. They knew that upon the completion of the speech that they must die.

As the blood flowed on the dais, as the severed heads and the bodies fell to the ground, no one moved. No one felt like it was unusual or unexpected. No one grieved for the fallen now dead guards.
I have a sense of what this means, you may as well.

A strange Shift, Spasm in the Heavens

You will want to read this if you have a sense that something is changed. It has.

Protection for the President

Our President is traveling and speaking in lands that are not friendly to us. I have a sense in the spirit that we need to be praying protection for him. It's not about politics. It's about peace.

Stop Going to Funerals

Early Pentecost Sunday Morning I had a vision of the Church on the Earth. Father said, "Stop Going to Funerals".

He reminded me what a funeral feels like. It's somber. People standing around. The deceased looks good. Is in a beautiful box. Dressed up. The undertaker has done his job. She lays there in all her glory. Of course there's no life there. She's just an empty shell.

People talk about how wonderful she was when she was alive. All the good memories. All the nice thoughts they have. Then after the time of remembering there is the funeral. Someone stands and gives a historical review of the life now gone. Born, lived, died - end.

Then a few songs are sung, old songs usually. A few familiar scriptures are read. A few written prayers are prayed and then the service is over. Then there is a fellowship time, a church lunch.

After the funeral, when it's all over, when she has been pronounced dead and gone they do an essential thing. They bury her. Forever. Seldom dug up again.

If they kept her around for a few weeks she would start to stink. Like Lazarus in the tomb. Even though Mary and Martha loved their dead brother, they didn't want him back because he stinkith.

Of course, the Master, Jesus, sometimes comes along and speaks life to the one lying in the coffin. She could rise up again, but I know this, if she did she would not be the same as she was. She would be different. Much different. She would be changed, radial. There's something liberating about someone who has been dead and then raised up again. They get reckless, radical, restored and reborn. They have another chance. They won't go back again to the old life they had. It's all new.

This is a picture of the Church of Jesus on the earth. Much of what passes for Church is a funeral remembering a not yet buried corpse that is beginning to stink. Even in Pentecost. We look to the glory of the former house rather than the glory of the latter house.

Father is saying, stop attending, stop conducting, stop participating in funerals. The day is long past. Bury the dead. Move on. There is no more life there.

Father is saying that there will be lots of burials in ministries and churches in the years to come. That is not the enemy, that is ME. Only by putting away the past can the glory of the latter house be revealed. The remembrance of the former house blinds us from seeing the destiny he has for us his church on the earth.

Father says: "Look up, your salvation draws nigh, I will put to death and bury everything NOT of me. Do not mourn for them. Let the dead bury the dead. Come FOLLOW ME I say. I am taking you places you did not expect to become salt and light for a world who needs new life. Don't mourn for, don't long for, don't even remember the former things. I do a new thing in the world and My glory I will share with no man nor anything man has devised. I alone am the Lord God. There is NO OTHER!"

A Turn took place

I can't tell you more yet, and it doesn't have anything to do with the Tiller Murder, which I reject as legitimate protest.

Something else happened. I can't tell you what because I don't know. I DO know that a turn took place.

Things are now different from what they were.

Much.
