This is a new hour where I will pour out My power and grace upon you to strengthen you as you go through the fire of My purging love. Remain silent and watch what I will do in you and through you. Watch and pray and believe and trust in My faithfulness for I will provide for you all your needs and also will continue to give you the desires of your heart to go deeper in Me.

Look only to Me, the Author and Finisher of your faith. Do not waver in doubt and unbelief. I might be stretching you, but this is a needed work in preparing you for what is ahead. This is the end of all times. This is the hour of My power, but also the hour of the great falling away. So continue to be still and know that I am God and that I am faithful. Look to Me and waver not in doubt and unbelief. Cast all your cares upon Me and rest fully assured of My provision, My care, My oversight and protection.

Even though the bombs fly around you and even explode, you are safe in Me. Hide yourself underneath the shadow of My wing and draw close, My children, draw close!

Deuteronomy 4:23-25 Be careful not to forget the covenant of the LORD your God that he made with you; do not make for yourselves an idol in the form of anything the LORD your God has forbidden. For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.

The scriptures say that where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty and there is freedom. Jesus himself said that he had come to set us free, and if the Son sets you free you are free indeed. His heart was in the Father’s heart, and the Father’s heart was in the Son’s heart, and when Christ ascended into the heavenly realms he sent down the Holy Spirit who is the manifest presence of the unified heart of the Trinity of God. There is a holy fire of love that burns within the center of this godly alliance. It is the fire that has fueled the universe in all its glory even before ancient times, it is the fire that provides fuel for all humanity, and all that we have been asked to take dominion over. It is a refiner’s fire that burns away all the chaff, hay and stubble within our souls that we may become true children of the Living God.

Elijah went before the people and said, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him; but if Baal is God, follow him.” But the people said nothing. 1 Kings 18:21

We have entered into a season of God’s consuming fire on this earth, and during this season of the refiners fire when God will start to separate the wheat from the tares, this same question will be asked of you and I; “Will you continue to follow Baal and the idols of this world, or will you lay down your lives and follow Jesus?”. The season for wavering between two opinions is coming to an end of this you can be certain, for the holy scriptures have proclaimed that our God is a jealous God. The very first commandment that we were given was to love God first, with all our heart, our soul, our mind and our strength. “Seek ye first the Kingdom”, Jesus said; and the riches of heaven will be made available to you. A meteor shower of God’s glory has already become evident in varying places all over the earth, and as the darkness of evil continues to increase the meteors will become asteroids of God’s power and his transforming presence will shake the very foundations of civilization itself. I can assure you, that this is no time for a mambi pambi church. This is no time to be hiding behind excuses as we lick the wounds that have been inflicted on us by us. OUR GOD IS A CONSUMING FIRE and it is high time that WE BURN FOR Jesus! John Wesley was once asked how he was able to draw such large crowds and what he said penetrated the depths of my soul. He said; “I set myself on fire for Jesus and they come to see me burn.”

Revelation 3:15-17 I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth. You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked.

The church in America today is lukewarm at best, this is not to say that the fire of God is not present in various people and places within this nation, it is to say that the fruit being born from our collective church efforts has fallen far short of God’s glory. If this were not so our nation would not be what it has become, a place of open sexual promiscuity and perversions of all kinds, a land where millions of children are being snatched from their mother’s wombs and placed at the altar of Baal, a nation that has placed Jesus at the back of the bus. A nation that has been wavering between two opinions for far too long.

There is a heart cry that is resonating deeply within the body of believers, a heart cry for true freedom in Christ, a heart cry for more of Jesus and less of man, a heart cry that will shake the very foundations of church as we know it in the coming days. The days of being lukewarm are coming to an end for you and I. God will have his way with us or without us, he will take his rightful place as King of Kings and Lord of lords. It is not his desire to leave anyone behind, but he will because he is holy and his word is faithful and true. Many will be burned by the fire of his presence during this great movement of his Spirit, but far more will be set free to live and to die for him.

Hebrews 12:28-29 Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.”

The fear, awe and wonder of God will fill the hearts of his true believers in the coming days and people from very tribe and every nation will come to watch them burn for Jesus. It will be an unprecedented time of evil, but it will be an even more unprecedented time of God’s manifest power and glory.

Isaiah 6:5-8 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the LORD Almighty.”

Then one of the seraphs flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”

I pray that each and every one of us will encounter God in a way that will set us on fire forever, and ever and ever so that when he asks; “Whom shall I send?” we can all answer in unity, in spirit and in truth “Here we are Lord, send us” Amen.

In Jesus name and by his love

A Consuming Fire

This is about people who love to sit in Zion singing. I shall not be moved. It is the power of deception. We are deceived to think because we have really powerful worship times, we are somehow really important to what God is doing. Somewhere, we have forget is not about us but it is through us! We have been so internally focused that we have the vision for humanity and are sleeping calling it soaking.

We love to soak and enjoy His presence but sometimes there things to do for the Kingdom.

I am not against soaking and experiencing God. At some point, everyone has to get alone with God but when soaking becomes the focus of your relationship with God, something is wrong.

When His Spirit wants to move, all we want to do is soak.

A lot of people in revival these days are just coming for another impartation, another word from the preacher and another prophetic word that they never intend to walk out.  I know a lot of people that got touched at Brownsville when I did. Most of them are just going from meeting to meeting getting “more anointing.” At some point, you have to do something with all that impartation you have received!

What remains in the house will die in the house!

There is a parable we forget or misunderstand. It is the story of the 10 talents. The story is about 3 people who got touched with revival. Two of them invested their “impartation” into the harvest while the last one just want to sit in the church and sing worship songs. The last one was called a “evil and wicked servant.” Revival has a mission and it is not just to make us more anointed! An anointing without a mission will only lead us into deeper deception and make us more religious like the Pharisees.

I was saved in the Brownsville Revival on July 15, 1996 and I know of a bunch of people who got touched in that same time frame at the revival. Like I said, most of them are running from conference to conference getting an “anointing.” Few of them, I repeat few of them are actually investing their impartation. Most of them would be evil and wicked servants.

So how now shall I live?

How do we live to not be more religious after getting our “anointing?” There is always a mission to revival! Every revival has died because of the lack of mission. I didn’t say the lack of missions but the lack of mission.  Many go into the nations as “missionaries” but they have lost the mission.  Their mission is to build a ministry; not build His ministry.

The only hope for the people going to “revival meetings” to change the tide of revival is to get a vision of mission, not just missions!”

Let this rock you to the core!

It’s time to stop going to church and start being the church!  We are going to start going out a lot more and recording the things God is doing in and through us and posting it all here.

Jesus came to a point in His life and ministry that He became so fed up with the unbelief of His own people that He stopped the majority of His synagogue-preaching in order to go town to town to spread the Good News amongst people who were unchurched and not religious at all [Mark 6:5-7] And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went about among the villages teaching. And he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. (ESV)

Let that sink in.

Jesus, for the most part, stopped preaching and teaching in the synagogues and made it a point to take His message of love and power onto the streets because He had not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

What are we doing?

I hear the Lord saying to us: “In the midst of your warring and pressing forward, the enemy has tried to restrain your vision. He is subtly speaking to you that you cannot enter into all and accomplish your destiny in the future. I am going to allow you a glimpse of an acceleration of a new vision. The enemy has tried to stop you and you have moved in one way. He has moved you off of my track. He has created bars around you and is attempting to hold you captive.

But I have come to say to that named demonic force called Restraint! I am removing the influence of Restraints from you. I am telling Restraint how it must let go so you can begin to hear in new way. “You are to lift the bars now and let go this captive go! Restraint, no longer can you continue in your vision blocking force. No longer can you block the move of God in the future, you are now gone from this atmosphere!”

There is death in the pot! I have brought you to the beginning of the river to break the death out of the waters that will flow in days ahead. There is a new river that is rising! For you have had one refreshing move and felt the river flowing in one way, but debris has gotten into My waters and blocked the way for your future. But like a stick of dynamite, I am coming in to re-empower you, and I am blowing open that blockade that has been blocked up. A new river movement now begins. I say to that demon of Blockade, “You now must let go and go! Blockade, let go, and GO! For this river will be one that comes from a new spring. Don’t try to go back to the spring that brought in the last river. Know that I am going deeper to bring forth a new spring in this place. Don’t try to move in what flowed in one season, for you have seen nothing like the water that I am going to rise in your midst.”

I Am cleansing the waters of the past and Poison Bitterness will no longer affect the flow of the river ahead. All poison bitterness that has produced words that has attached deep into the soul of My people, I say to you, ‘Remove your fangs and LET GO!’

“You have seen a mission that has grown muddy. Now you will see the point of entry for the next release of My cleansing, healing water will come. Get ready and ask Me for the next healing movement. You have longed to see the outbreak, but now I will send in and release the healing waters that will now begin to flow. I Am forming the mantle for your future and I will recover you from the exposure of the past.”

Deuteronomy 11:14 Then I will give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.

This will be a year of restoration for the things in your life that have been lost. There are also many people who you would least expect that are going to rise up to a prominent place and ministry because they have been living a life of humility and submission in the secret place. We will see many backslidden Christians return to the Lord and when you see the prodigals come back do not refuse them. The Lord is calling forth those dead bones to come alive once again and He is about to take His Glory and place it on those whom He chooses. Don’t be like the elder son who was envious and bitter when he saw his prodigal brother returning home from a life of sin and shame.

Luke 15:24 For this my son was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ And they began to be merry.

Yes there will be wars and rumors of wars as well as terrorist attacks but the Word of God tells us not to fear. We are in Covenant with Jesus and He will surely protect us. Two days ago there was a devastating earthquake in Haiti. According to the Word of God we are required to support them financially and in prayer.

Matthew 25:35 – 36 I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.

Don’t be concerned with what the future will bring if you are living a life of integrity before the Lord. This truly will be a day of a great transformation. Expect great things!

This is the word given through a compilation of the prophetic releases and consensus of the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE). There are differing variables that can affect the timing and/or coming to pass of these words:

1. All prophecy not contained in Scripture is conditional.
2. A prophecy may take longer than one calendar year to come to pass. Some [will] take many years to fulfill.
3. It is possible that prophetic warnings will cause either the person or the nation to repent and so turn away the judgment prophesied. Biblically, this happened when Jonah prophesied to Nineveh and the city repented, causing God to relent.

Key Scripture Passage for 2010

“Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place” (2 Cor. 2:14, NKJV).

2010 is the year in which we will win. This is a year to triumph in Christ and diffuse the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

2010 is the year to wake up. It is time to wake up and see both what the enemy is trying to do and what God wants to do through us. This is a year when God will help us “see” in a supernatural way those things that we have felt as if we could not understand.

The Year of the Wind

2010 will be a year of the wind. There is a new Pentecost about to be poured out upon God’s people who are hungering for more of Him. The wind of the Holy Spirit is going to blow us in the right direction and into the place that God wants us to be. We will see glorious manifestations of His divine power with signs and wonders.

Many nations will feel the impact of this mighty wind. Indonesia will once again be swept over by the Holy Spirit, along with Thailand, Poland, North Korea, South Korea, and the United Kingdom. Alaska will see a move of the Holy Spirit among the Native Alaskans.

New wells of revival will break out, and many will drink from the wells of salvation.

Many will teach on the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We are going to need to see them all function in the church in this day to fulfill our mission.

We will see a special increase of the word of wisdom. The word of wisdom is supernatural insight into what to do that will secure our future. The manifestation of this gift will be such that from one moment to the next we will have the plan or “road map” on what we are to do for our future.

Third Great Awakening

We believe that the outpouring of the Holy Spirit that came on November 11, 2009, in Kansas City signaled the beginning of a Third Great Awakening that we prophesied would come to America and the world. November 11th was the day the Pilgrims made covenant with God in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Many intercessors across the nation are crying out to God for the nation to once again become “a city set on a hill.” If we continue to pray and call out to God, the nation will shift.

Evangelism

Many churches will wake up and evangelize the lost in their cities and nations. Thousands will be swept into the kingdom of God through new “power evangelism” movements in which people [will be] shown by supernatural means that God is real.

Churches who haven’t baptized in years will begin to see many people come to Christ. Dead churches will become resurrected under the fire and power of the Holy Spirit’s working, and many [who are] lost will be swept into the kingdom of God.

Breaking Debt Cycles

Key Scripture passage: “The spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed” (Luke 4:18).

We felt that the Lord had given us an “eye of the storm” time period to get out of debt. In fact, as we discussed the many prophetic warnings about a second economic shaking, we felt that the Lord in His mercy had extended a period of grace to His people because many were not ready for another shaking.

Supernatural ability to get out of debt is being released. If you will start paying your debts, even in very small amounts, God will supernaturally get behind your efforts and help you get out of debt.

Eradication of Systemic Poverty

It is time to fulfill the first message Jesus preached and bring justice to the poor. God spoke to us about social justice missionaries—[people] who are called to help eliminate systemic poverty. There is a marriage of righteousness and justice, and God will raise up those who are called to fight issues such as human trafficking as well as poverty.

The call will marry its mandate to win the lost to its justice mandate. Churches will begin to model taking care of the poor in their midst, as well as putting systems into place to help teach their people how to get out of debt.

Clash of Kingdoms

Just as [He did] the year before, the Lord spoke to us about the great “clash of kingdoms” taking place around the world—the kingdom of God and the empire-building spirit of Islam. Satan is on the march to build empires.

Be aware and watch and see what is around you. Home-grown terrorism will be on the rise. There is a move toward “civilization Jihad” around the globe in countries that have democratic rule.

Judgment and Testing

Key Scripture passage: “So Daniel said to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, ‘Please test your servants for ten days, and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then let our appearance be examined before you, and the appearance of the young men who eat the portion of the king’s delicacies; and as you see fit, so deal with your servants.’ So he consented with them in this matter, and tested them ten days. And at the end of ten days their features appeared better and fatter in flesh than all the young men who ate the portion of the king’s delicacies” (Dan. 1:11-16).

Daniel and his friends were tested for 10 days, and then they had favor with the king. They were found to be 10 times better than the others. This will happen for those who are faithful to stand in times of testing. In the end, you will rise above all the others and advance.

Nehemiah

Ten times words were spoken to stop Nehemiah’s work on the wall. Do not be intimidated by the seeming onslaught of the evil one. Finish the task that God has put before you. God spoke to us over and over in our meeting that we are not to be intimidated in the coming season of conflict and testing.

Worship Activism

Key Scripture passage: “And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who should sing to the Lord, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying: ‘Praise the Lord, for His mercy endures forever.’ Now when they began to sing and to praise, the Lord set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. For the people of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another” (2 Chron. 20:21-23).

We will win through worship. It is the key to triumph! There is a marriage of worship and activism taking place [that will cause] the church [to] march and sing, just as in the days of Martin Luther King Jr.

New battle hymns will be written along the lines of “The Battle Hymn of the Republic.” His truth is marching on, and there is a call for biblical truth through worship.

Worship will break open the heavens, and young people will heed the call to be “musicianaries” and go to the ends of the earth to start 24/7 houses of worship.

Great joy will break out in the midst of worship as God “laughs” at His enemies through His people (see Ps. 2; 149).

Great Conflict

For each kingdom advance this year we will see the enemy “pushing back” and stirring up conflict around us. Do not be afraid of confrontation and conflict. Fight intimidation. Run toward the Goliaths in your life, and remember that you are called to triumph in this year.

Activism will manifest as new armies of the Lord are being raised up. Find your place and let your voice be heard.

Over the next years in the United States a new, third political party will arise. The Lord is preparing His leadership for this party, which will come out of the citizens of the United States groaning under the corruption of the old guard. Many leaders are being tested and tried in the fire right now who will take leadership in due time, for it will begin not so much as a political party but [as] a movement. The movement will become a party in time.

Season of Transition

This is a season of transition for the body of Christ. For the United States, it will be a time of transition for either good or evil. The nation is on the “cusp” of remaining a civilization as we know it. It is up to this generation to see it go back to the original vision of our founders.

A woman has to dilate to 10 centimeters to give birth. The years 2010 and beyond will be a time of intense pressure but will result in the birthing of many new things.

God is also going to rearrange His people for the coming days’ work. There are some who will make sudden geographic moves. Others will transition in their jobs and careers. There will be special grace poured out upon those who are obedient to allow God to reposition His troops. For those who are not making a move but are seeing people that you love make changes, God will also help you transition into this new season and send new help for you.

Transition into the new season, get your vision and house in order. Make sure that you are properly aligned for the new battles ahead.

Be Prepared

Key Scripture passages: Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins (Matt. 25:1-13); Parable of the Talents (Matt. 25:14-30).

Rearrange and “rightsize” for victories and breakthroughs. Become more focused in your core purpose. Live a simpler life. Do not hoard what another person can use. This is the time to share and take care of each other. Make sure that the body of Christ can arise with the call of the bridegroom, as the five virgins who were ready [were able to do].

We must begin to think more as a community than simply as individuals. Put your house in order and arrange for the next season. Mobility is the key in the kingdom today. Many who are not rightsized will see the loss of buildings, lands and so on. If this has happened to you, God will help you begin again.

There is a season of pruning for growth. The pruning can, and at times will, seem painful, but trust that God is working all things together for your good.

Hosea 8:1 “Set the trumpet to your mouth! He shall come like an eagle against the house of the LORD…”

Enough! Enough of what you have done, Satan! For this is indeed the day of My power, and I will bless My people exceedingly abundantly beyond anything they can imagine; beyond anything they can receive. I will bless them in their store house and in their bodies. I will cause them to be such a blessing that it cannot be overlooked in this world. They will be my witnesses in this the end of the time and the people will call them “those are the blessed of the Lord”.

So, I say, get ready for the blessings. You would say, “what blessings?” I would say unto you, that which I have in store for you; that which I have in mind for you and not as you think but that which I know you need and that which I shall give. For you are called Beulah land, the place of blessing; the New Jerusalem, the city of blessing. For you are called the bride of the Lord, the most Holy. And, it shall be according to that which I have called you, says the Lord, and not according to that which the enemy has purposed for you. For he lives under the realm of My authority and when I say ‘enough’ he knows the meaning of that word and he shall withdraw his purposes and his armies from you, says the Lord.

Out of the habitation of these years past and out of the dust of those years shall arise one new man, the man of power, a man who is formed in the likeness of Jesus Christ — those that will operate in the fullness of the strength of the Holy Spirit and through His gifts they shall overcome. And by the power of His gifts they shall be blessing to others.

I say arise, My children, for this is indeed your finest hour, and My blessings shall be poured out into your lives for you are living in My company; you are living under My outstretched wings; you are living in the time of achievement, the time of announcement, the time of overcoming. and the time of the defeat of the evil one. For indeed these things are written and they shall come to pass even as My word has declared.

My authority I give unto you. It is the authority that has been contended for and brought opposition in to your life. It is the power of the kingdom in manifestation. You know that you walk in this authority and know that you are suppose to have this authority. But, I say, at this time you shall know the reality of its purpose, says the Lord. For indeed even the angels wait to see what you will do with this authority — this authority of mine that brings power and stops the rain and brings the rain. It is the authority that calls peace be still to the waves and the storms of your life and manages victory over all the works of the enemy. This authority I give unto you, says the Lord. It will be the focus of My work in the days ahead.

So remember those words that I have spoken to you, “Behold I give unto you authority”. Let those words resound in your spirit; let them strengthen you, empower you and pick you up from where ever you might be. Behold I give unto you power. I give unto you authority, says the Lord. And in the days that follow you shall learn how to use this authority. You shall learn how to walk in this authority with humility. You shall learn the strength of it and the purpose of it. For it is My authority that will cause all things to manifest. It is My authority that shall regain the kingdoms of this world and cause them to be My kingdom, says the Lord. So walk in authority.

My children, stand erect and believe. Begin again to walk as children of victory — those who are more than conquerors. Give no quarter and no place to the enemy. Walk in such a place of victory that even the world will know that you belong to Me. Rise up from weakness into strength and from hopelessness to faith. Let My faith become a reality to you in this time, says the Lord.

January 11, 2010: This is what I want you to do. Walk in My presence; walk in My glory and power. If you walk in the glory all things will be possible unto you and My anointing will come upon you. You are a kingdom child, and you will receive all the blessings that I have for you. Get up today. Lift up the hands that hang down. No longer be weak, but be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. No longer consider yourself a victim. but consider yourself more than a conqueror, victorious in all things. Rise up to new levels and to new heights, says the Lord
