Viewing The Shift - By Ron McGatlin  The goal of the ministry of the church. The primary goal is not a bigger group, more activities or better services, it is not even benevolent acts, nor greater prosperity, and not even more and better evangelism, neither is it healing or emotional healing and deliverance. All of these and more are the results of the goal of the "ekklesia" (assembly of called out ones). The goal is Christ formed by the Holy Spirit in a people becoming His character and His nature in the world producing the kingdom of God and His righteousness. This is the work of the Holy Spirit in the humble and not a work of man's prideful efforts. The Holy Spirit brings the life of Christ within replacing our dead self-life. It is Christ being formed within by the same Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the dead. Rom 8:11 But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you. The major fruit of the Spirit flowing from the Christ within is love. Unconditional love flowing from a pure heart leads to all the other fruits of the Spirit including joy, peace and faith to name a few. (Gal 5:22:KJV)  The love of Christ flowing from a pure heart is the most powerful world changing force. Fear, pride, lust, greed, envy, and every evil work can be overpowered by love from a pure hearted ekklesia touching and changing our household and those who abide within then spilling out to the world. Paul spoke clearly the goal of ministry to Timothy. 1 Tim 1:5 NIV: The goal of this command is love, which comes from a pure heart and a good conscienceand a sincere faith.  The Church is moving to embrace the goal expressed in the early church. For a number of years the prophets have proclaimed a coming paradigm shift and the return of functioning apostles to help lead toward the new landscape. Many in the past have also added that they had no clear picture of what the new landscape of church would look like. Now that the shift is in process and the new landscape is coming into view many are extremely surprised and even astonished. Some doubt that it is God doing the shifting. In reality we are all in a state of transition and are at different places in the journey of transition. And some have not yet taken the first step toward following this movement of the cloud and pillar of fire. Some key words of this season are: intimacy with God, Father's love, "Christ in you", Holy Spirit saturation, soaking, God's manifest presence, transformation, reformation, church without walls and more. Relationship is a major concept of the shift - first intimate relationship with God and then with one another. The love and gifts flowing through relationship are becoming the primary structure replacing institutional structure. Without brokenness leading to real repentance and real humility it is impossible to relate to God intimately. Intimacy with God is primary. Without intimately relating with God through the Holy Spirit it is not possible to see what is shifting and how it will look. To begin to view some light on the shift it is absolutely necessary to get in close contact with the Holy Spirit and get out of the mind set that our particular flavor of religious system or structure is the final destination. The Spirit must reveal to us that our "system" is NOT the church. We do not go to the church nor join the church. We are added to the church and we are the church. The church is the "ekklesia" (assembly of called out ones). Most every Bible teacher has taught about the priesthood of the believer but it has not really been fully practiced in the past. The "clergy/laity" system made it impossible for the full reality of the priesthood of the believer to come forth. The church is NOT passing away - the systems are passing away. In the confusion of the transition some think that anarchy and rebellion are coming against the church and attempting to throw off the leadership of apostle, prophet, evangelist, shepherd and teacher. If there are any such people out there I personally have not come into contact with them and they are definitely wrong. Let me assure you that the new paradigm will bring forth many times more gifted leaders than we ever had in the passing systems. The Holy Spirit will have freedom to bring forth multitudes of gifted men and women who have in the passing systems been relegated to pew sitting, or limited jobs within the system. In recent decades many have become discouraged and have left religious systems in search of more reality of God. Often these pilgrims have spent years in a wilderness type experiences. Jesus spent 40 days in the wilderness before joining with others to fulfill his purposes. Moses spent 40 years in the desert before joining with others and moving toward the fulfillment of His life ministry. Paul also endured a wilderness season. Many scattered wilderness dwellers who had left the old are beginning to re connect and find their place in the ekklesia. For the most part they never wanted to leave God but had to leave the life limiting traditional clergy/laity structure.It is not the way of God to remain isolated from the rest of the body forever though the wilderness experience may have served a purpose and seasons of separation alone with God are often significantly used of God. We are now coming to understand the difference between leadership and headship. There is one head of the ekklesia. There are no people to stand as head over the ekklesia or to represent the head to the mature believers. The head is Christ Jesus flowing through the Holy Spirit and living in all his people. Then you ask, what is leadership? Leadership implies being in front of a moving group that is following. It simply means those further down the road. They are all on the same road. The mature lead the immature until they are matured and then they lead other immature in turn. Spiritual maturity is being able to clearly hear God and then being able to fully obey. If we are childish and yet have a self-life - if we are plagued by unhealed inner wounds and inner needs that drive us, we will not clearly hear God and will lack the ability to fully obey or carry out the instruction or direction from God. Another word for mature is elder. Now, we need to lose our understanding of an elder from the passing system of church offices. We also need to lose our understanding of apostles, prophets, evangelist, pastor and teachers as church system offices. Elders lead by example training and assisting the immature. They shepherd and oversee. They allow the maturing disciples to watch them and their lives. Then the elders release the maturing disciples to do the work while they watch. Then they leave them doing the work and relate to the mature ones no longer as sons or daughters but as grown brothers and sisters who are themselves now mature or elder. The servant gifts of apostle, prophet, evangelist, shepherd and teacher are already in the people while they were yet immature but cannot flow out to others until they are mature (elder). Therefore elders may be by their gifting apostles, prophets, evangelist, shepherds or teachers. The practical reality of the masses flowing and exercising their spiritual gifts greatly multiplies the leadership of the ekklesia. This greatly increases the discipleship and evangelism of the Body. All this takes place in a multitude of generic family style groups and public gatherings where Christ in the people by the Holy Spirit connects with the manifest presence of Christ from the throne by the Holy Spirit and the true Head is joined to the Body. This living Body of believers released to function as priests and kings will provide millions more leaders to lead the immature in multitudes of local groups and to flow from group to group bringing the gifts God has given them. The Holy Spirit will guide everyone who can hear and obey. Those who cannot yet hear and obey will be led and trained by elders who are matured through much affliction, humbled and purified by the love of God experience, to the point that they can clearly hear and obey. This is God's original design to bring forth the Body and Bride of Christ into the world. Christ being formed in many bodies networked together by the Holy Spirit as the one Body of Christ. It is Christ in you that is the hope of glory and the method for the kingdom of God to function on earth as it is in heaven. Be careful not to be mislead. It can be easy to be mislead by the fierce reactions of those who are not yet understanding the shift and are fearful of the loss of the systems that have served us for so long. Also do not be mislead by those who would attempt to hijack the developing movement with a repackaging of the passing system practices with new labels. The shift is not all about how or where groups come together. You can have the old system traditional church in a house or at work and simply continue the traditions of men in a different venue. Or you can have a Christ led first century style assembly in a house or a red brick building. The move is about Christ truly becoming the head in a practical real way and not just in word only. Consider the timing. This shift is a work of God through the Holy Spirit and is occurring over a period of time. This will NOT all happen today or tomorrow. It may be years or it may be hundreds of years before this transition season is over. It would be a huge mistake to get into the flesh and try to bring about by human effort what God is doing. It would be equally problematic to try to run ahead of the work the Holy Spirit is doing. Feeding from the tree of knowledge of good and of evil led us into the perversions of the past. Partaking from the tree of life of intimate relationship with God to clearly hear Him and fully obey His direction will cause us to walk precisely in His will and timing. For today and the near future it is certain that the presentation of church will have many and varied transitional models that God will use as much as he can. Many factors will affect the transition including world political conditions. In increasing parts of the world, the true church is underground because of governmental and religious extreme persecution. While in other places freedom and favor for the church may be increasing. The Early Church (Ekklesia) Model In the early church the gifted but humble apostolic servant leaders lived among the people and taught them publicly and from house to house. They ate together with gladness and simplicity of heart. A multiplicity of elders (spiritually mature leaders) cared for the city church that met in houses and gathered publicly daily on occasions. Acts 2:46: So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, Acts 20:17-20: From Miletus he (Paul) sent to Ephesus and called for the elders of the church. And when they had come to him, he said to them: "You know, from the first day that I came to Asia, in what manner I always lived among you, "serving the Lord with all humility, with many tears and trials which happened to me by the plotting of the Jews; "how I kept back nothing that was helpful, but proclaimed it to you, and taught you publicly and from house to house, Pursue Love, It Never Fails,

HIS WIND IN YOUR SAILS IS GOING TO ASSAIL THE ENEMY

November 26, 2015

 |  No Comments

This morning I had a vision where I saw sailing boats and they were in the midst of the storm. They were being blown around by the wind and the waves. There was such turbulence around these ships, and at times they felt like they were going to get ‘tipped’ over and just when they hit “steady seas”, another wind and wave rose up and began to cause more turbulence.

The thing I noticed about a lot of these boats was that they were DEEPLY anchored. So even though the wind and waves were blowing and rising up around them, the anchor was in the depths and wasn’t going anywhere.

In the midst of this vision I sensed the Lord saying “Many are experiencing the wind and waves of circumstances and what they enemy is bringing into their lives to attempt to tip them and sink them. The thing is, as they have gone deeper into Me as their anchor they are SECURE IN ME. The wind and the waves are LIES. They are SMOKE AND MIRRORS attempting to cause My people to believe that they are about to be overcome. This is a lie! As they are anchored in Me, even though they feel ‘shaken’, they are NOT being MOVED. My people are not to look the ‘smoke and mirror’ wind and waves but to look to Me, for the turbulence is simply an indicator that they are about to take new ground, more ground and move into new territory, higher heights and deeper depths with Me and in Me.”

I saw the people of God in the storm, in the wind and in the waves, making conscious decisions to go deeper, to praise Him in the storm, to dive deep into the Word, to see His heart and nestle into His goodness and nature, standing in faith and suddenly I saw the face of the Lord, and His cheeks were FULL of air and He blew SO HARD over these ‘sailing boats’ that represented many of God’s people.

Instantly NEW LEVELS OF WIND was in their sails. A force, empowerment, strength of wind they had not known before and they begin to sail with SUCH strength, such acceleration and the WIND IN THEIR SAILS was STRONGER than the wind and waves around them. They were moving through the storm with undescribable peace and strength.

They moved through the storm in such acceleration, suddenly they were out the other side of the storm in but an instant, and sailing in beautiful, still, sparkling waters with the sun beaming on them.

The Lord is blowing the wind of His Spirit on His people going through the storm as they stay positioned. You may feel like you are in the midst of the storm, and the wind and waves are making A LOT OF NOISE, but it is SMOKE AND MIRRORS. Look to HIM, your ANCHOR. You are secure in Him. GO DEEPER, for the storm is simply the indicator that you are about to move into the SIGNIFICANT new territory, heights and depths.

In the storm, many of the people of God are learning deeper depths of humility and humility is being established deep within them. The Lord did not cause the storm, but IN the storm the Lord is revealing our need of HIM.

The storm is seeing many of God’s people who are leaning into Him, moving deeper in humility and positioning them to see the storm as simply something that precedes their PROMOTION.

Then the disciples came to him and said, "Why do you speak to them in
parables?"  He replied, "You have been given the opportunity to know the
secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but they have not. For whoever has will
be given more, and will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even
what he has will be taken from him. For this reason I speak to them in
parables--that although they see they do not see and although they hear they
do not hear nor do they understand. Matthew 13:10-13 (NET)
I have heard you ask for more of me, to receive and bring healing to others.
I hear you ask for more of my ways, for my presence to be tangible.

You say you want to walk in my miraculous ways. It is good.
It is my wish for my people to walk in my kingdom ways.

Continue asking for want I want. Never slack from seeking my ways and
promises. Knock continuously that the doors of my kingdom may be opened.

Yes, be steadfast. Live righteous lives, forgoing self. Allow me to supply
the opportunities to release the needed results.

Examine your hearts and circumstances. Leave behind what is not from me. And
that includes finger-pointing and leveling blame. It includes
self-condemnation.

I am strengthening my people. Do not skip the exercises I set before you. I
am preparing you that you may be able to withstand more of me.

Yes, I hear you. Continue seeking my son. Within him your wounds will be
healed. Within him you will find the acceptance and fullness you seek.

Jane:  When I added up today's date the total was 43 - 11+24+2015(8)= 43 and this scripture came to mind:

Isaiah 43

¹⁸ “Forget the former things;
    do not dwell on the past.
¹⁹ See, I am doing a new thing!
    Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
    and streams in the wasteland.

A DAY OF NEW BEGINNINGS!!

November 24, 2015 - Lana Vawser

I had a dream last night and in my dream I heard the words “This is the DAY of NEW BEGINNINGS.”

The three words that stood out to me was “DAY” and “NEW BEGINNINGS” and I felt the Lord say a few things.

DAY: This IS the season for the NEW BEGINNINGS and that the SHIFTS that are being released right now across the body of Christ as the people of God PRESS IN are facing the heavenly reality that “THINGS CAN BE CHANGED IN A DAY”. I kept hearing the words “A DAY can make the WORLD of DIFFERENCE.”

I felt the Lord saying that such intense suddenlies are raining upon His people that are going to see things CHANGED OVERNIGHT. But also the sudden changes that are taking place for many right now over a 24 hour period are going to see Him USE THEM IN THE WORLD TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. Encounters with Him especially in the area of their destiny, calling and giftings that will see the people of God rise up to a level they have not known before and go out into the world in whatever sphere the Lord has them in right now and see SUDDEN SHIFTS and extension of the Kingdom. The people of God moving forward to one day seeing “NATIONS CHANGED IN A DAY”.

NEW BEGINNINGS: The “tying up” of the old season is happening and has happened for many, and the COMPLETELY NEW IS BREAKING THROUGH. A new horizon the people of God have not seen before. A complete break away from the past, to a platform of the NEW. New opportunities, doors and floors that will look NOTHING like the past, but full of MUCH MORE than they have ever experienced in living in and partnering with Him.

The Old Man is Dead – In Christ is Newness of Life

By Amanda Leonard

There comes a time in each of our lives that we must go from merely having head knowledge about our Father, to that deep KNOWING Him in our hearts. This can be a difficult journey for many of us, mainly because of the way that we are taught from the time we enter this natural world. Almost every one of us were taught by the ways of the world. We have been taught "the way that seems right to a man." (Proverbs 14:12)

We've been taught things like, "What you see is what you get.", "Don't get your hopes up", or "I'll believe it, when I see it." That last statement alone would blow all of Christianity out of the water, if it were true. There have been many things that we have learned throughout our lives that were the ways and wisdom of men.

Religion is the byproduct of many of these false ideas and perceptions. So many of the body of Christ, continue to be sin-conscious (old man) instead of Christ-conscious (new man in Christ). Sin-consciousness keep us focused on ourselves, while Christ-consciousness keeps us focused on Christ. I believe religion is one of the main ways that we get "stuck in our heads" and are unable to move into the reality of being one with Him and His truth being rooted in our hearts. Religion says you must do this, this and this (works apart from His grace), to earn His love and acceptance. Religion is like a wall that causes His true love to ricochet away from our hearts.

The way that seems right to a man is still the old mindset, the Adamic way of thinking; the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, which leads to death (no life in Christ). The old man was born into Adam, where it was all about "self" that's why we must be born again. We must die to the ways of Adam and be born again into the newness of life in Christ.

In the garden, when Satan told Eve, if you eat of this tree you will be like God, they didn't realize they already were made in His image. They were already like Him. That was the day their identity surely died. The same goes for the way that seems right to a man (head-knowledge), it only leads to death.

We need His knowledge and wisdom, His love and mercy flowing in our hearts. He is our source of life. Our identity needs to be secure in Him alone.

All our old ways have died, once and for all. Your depressed self, your old anxious ways, the fallen personality of who you once were is buried and gone. The striving to overcome our old sinful nature is gone and buried.

You may say, "But I don't feel dead to depression, I feel so overwhelmed", child don't let your feelings be greater than His truth. The truth is, that is not who you are anymore, the old man is gone and with that old man goes depression, anxiety, fear, being impatient, addictions, health problems, insecurity and every other thing that is not in Christ. We get so focused on what we are not, that we can't see who we really are. This doesn't mean that we will won't still feel these things but as we can bring these feelings to Jesus and thank Him for our new man in Him who is free, completely free, we will trust in His word. I believe this is where faith comes in, where no matter our circumstance, no matter what we see in the natural, His truth stands.

Here's a couple examples to share to maybe make this more clear. I was talking with my friend, who has a very special little boy. He is special needs but the thing is this, he is healed. His mother and I were talking about how the Lord has been giving us more revelation of the cross. If we could just see ourselves through the cross. Her son's healing came over 2,000 years ago on the cross and as we now know this truth, we can see him fully healed, fully restored and can believe that "it is finished". She's been speaking this truth over him, by the faith of the Son of God and things are changing, in her, in him, in her entire family, as His Truth has come and has set us free! This is not just some method, as if God is a genie in a bottle, it's through that love relationship with Him. Sometimes we can just quote, "In the name of Jesus" as some formula, but He wants us to literally know Him, to see ourselves through that name, through the cross, as His perfect bride.

Another example is of a precious daughter of God and author, Michelle Perry, I've read some of her writings where she talks about being born with one leg. So there have been obvious obstacles that she has had to overcome. The first time I read something she wrote, I was taken back at first. She mentioned that although she has one leg here, she really has two legs. She could see in the eternal, she sees herself with two legs. She knew what Jesus had paid for and she could see past the now, into eternity where the cross has paid it all. The cross is eternal, Jesus was the Lamb that was slain before the foundations of the world and that reality is still present today and will always be, forever. She sees herself with two legs because she sees herself through the eyes of Jesus the Son.

What if we can see through His single eye to who He created us to be and who our new man is in Him? Wouldn't that be a lovely picture of Truth? I believe so, actually I know so.....and now we have His Spirit in us; the same Spirit that raised Christ Jesus from the dead to quicken our mortal bodies!!! How can we lose folks? We can't, He's already won and we are in Him, so we win too!

Romans 6:10-14 "For the death he died he died to sin, once for all, but the life he lives he lives to God. 11 Likewise you also reckon yourselves dead indeed to sin but alive to God in Christ Jesus. 12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in it's lusts. 13 And do not present your members to sin as instruments for unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as righteousness to God. 14 For sin SHALL NOT have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace."

He has been so gracious towards us. We have had some really good ideas on how to alter ourselves and yet many are still living in bondage. We've came up with some good protocols and keys to living a more blessed and prosperous life and yet we still can't even see our created value. So we end up just trying harder and continuing to eat off the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Those ideas are all well and good but if we don't have Christ as our cornerstone, we are just building another set of good ideas with no power behind it to accomplish change through Jesus. He is a God of transformation.

We have focused so much on what is wrong in our lives and the lives of others, that we over look what He's made right. We are dead, the old man is gone. We have tried to resurrect our old man instead of living in His resurrection life within us. The more we focus on what we think we are not, the more we miss who we really are now in Jesus.

Galatians 2:20 "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me : and the life I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave Himself for me."

He longs for us to see ourselves the way that John saw each of us in the book of revelation. As a bride ready, a changed people who know who they are in the Son. A bride who is spotless, beautiful and radiant, joyful and full of life.

Revelation 19:7-8 " Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage supper of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready." 8 And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints."

Let's pray together. Father, I thank You that our old man is dead and that IN You we have new powerful resurrection life. Thank You Jesus for the cross, for Your blood that was shed that has made ALL things possible for us that believe.

Father forgive me for times that I have let my circumstances speak much louder than Your truth. I thank You that Your truth is rooted in my heart. I thank You Jesus for allowing my eyes to be opened to see myself through the cross and that all my old ways have died and I have been made alive in You alone. Help me Lord to walk this out.

Transform my mind Father, that I will even hear words that I speak and realize that it's just old mindsets trying to define me, these are lies Father, so as they come up, I just give them to You. I see You just taking those lies of who we thought we were, old mindsets and You just burying them on the other side of the cross, never to come up again.

I love You Jesus and I thank You for transforming me by the power of Your Spirit living in me. I give all of myself to you, thank You for building me up in Christ and seeing that reality manifest in my life. You are amazing Daddy and my love for you fails in comparison to Your love for me. I am forever Yours! Amen.

Walking In Newness of Life,

A WORD FROM THE KING 

Linda Patterson 

At our Shekinah Toronto Power Encounter on Saturday, 
we were worshiping to the Bethel Live song, Our 
Father. As we sang the lyrics, “Yours is the Kingdom, 
Yours is the power, Yours is the glory forever, Amen” 
the Spirit of the Lord spoke this prophetic word to my 
heart. 

The Lord is saying today, “My sons and daughters, 
YOURS is the Kingdom, YOURS is the power, YOURS is the 
glory, for I have given it to you. You are citizens of 
Heaven, you live in My Kingdom. My Kingdom rules and 
reigns. I say to you today lift up your eyes, lift up 
your heart, know your King for you are subjects in My 
Kingdom. You are My glorious ones. You are My sons and 
daughters and I have a destiny for you. I have a plan 
and purpose for each one of your lives. Your 
destination is Heaven, yes, but occupy here and do the 
will of the King. 

I say to you this day you are loved, you are chosen, 
you are equipped, and you are well able to do great 
and awesome things in this season. Keep your eyes 
focused. My sons and My daughters, focus your eyes on 
Heaven, because from Heaven comes your marching 
orders. The heart of the King is speaking forth and 
saying follow Me, follow Me. My plans and My purposes 
for you are secure and nothing can snatch you out of 
My hands. Nothing! Set your heart upon Me, set your 
mind, will and emotions towards Me. 

You are My overcoming, victorious ones; you are My 
Remnant Church, My Remnant Army. Go forward under the 
banner Holiness Unto The Lord and you will know NO 
defeat! 

1 Chronicles 29:11 
"Thine, O Lord is the greatness, and the power, and 
the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all 
that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine 
is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head 
above all." 

Romans 8:35 
"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall 
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, 
or nakedness, or peril, or sword?"

Market and In God's Kingdom. 

I read an article published by The Wall Street Journal 
with the title, "'Rough' diamonds -- some looking more 
like gravel than gems -- edge into the jewelry market." 
Here are some excerpts taken from that article, "A new 
look in diamond jewelry is on the rise...Known as rough 
diamonds, these are the stones in their natural state, 
before they've been cut with the facets that give 
diamonds the sparkle, brilliance and clarity they are 
known for...Luxury consumers are maturing "beyond the 
'look at me' phase." 

As I read this article I sensed the Father saying, "I'll 
buy that. Many of My people have hindered My glory from 
moving throughout the earth. They have become enamored 
with perfection, waiting to be cut just perfectly before 
they think the world will see Me in them. Many have 
become like diamonds waiting to be cut and polished until 
no earthly resemblance is left in them. Many then get 
stranded inside of My house thinking if they go into the 
world, something earthly could stain and cause My shine 
to fade." 

"But now, I am releasing My glory into the earth as I 
release My diamonds in the rough. Many of these vessels 
who seem more 'earthy' than others will begin to shine 
even brighter as My glory pierces through these cracked 
and seemingly broken vessels. The defects in some earthen 
vessels will actually give way to more of My glory 
shining through them." 

The most valuable fine cut diamonds in the world can only 
be seen in museums under lock and key and can never be 
touched by human hands. Diamonds in the "rough" can turn 
up anywhere and can be touched by anyone. Be careful who 
you think has a lot of earth left in them after they are 
redeemed...there may be a larger diamond under all that 
earth! 

2 Corinthians 4:7, "If you only look at us, you might 
well miss the brightness. We carry this precious Message 
around in the unadorned clay pots of our ordinary lives. 
That's to prevent anyone from confusing God's 
incomparable power with us. As it is, there's not much 
chance of that. You know for yourselves that we're not 
much to look at..." ( Message Bible )

Jesus breaks barriers of sound and light. Gold refined! Dead hopes 
are not a sign of life! Make bold declarations of God's infinite love. 
Move to the flow of rich faith. Power defined! Take hold of living 
hope. The treasure in the field is worth the time spent on destiny. 
Discover the eternal weight of glory! Hurt for joy! The shadow of the 
rock protects you from the danger. Go to the appointed place. Draw 
near to the heart of God. Dwell where love sustains. Take the paths 
of righteousness for his name's sake. Called! Hear Jesus speak your 
name. Chosen! Walk close! Cherished! You are appointed to draw 
near and abide at the heart of God. 

We are connected and love sustained with gifts of the Holy Spirit 
that come in the atmosphere of deep fellowship. Resolve to live out 
the vision. Launch out in faith. We are pressed to dwell where the 
dove remains. Anointing is the drive of intimacy with the courage to 
greet the morning with the assurance of faith. 

Our hearts are in the crucible cup of an enduring faith. This cup can 
contain revival. It melts the weapons of the enemy and strengthens 
our spiritual armor for victory. It reminds us of courage and 
covenant. 

Blessings

From Steven Bliss:

As I was walking this morning, I asked if I may have a word to deliver, and I heard the name James. 
Well, I heard James or Jim. It was as if James was in a period of self-examination, not knowing 
if they were a “formal” James or were the more informal (comfortable) Jim. 

This time of turmoil is coming to an end. It is up to you to speak to it, so It can be over. 
You must become comfortable sitting and talking with Father-God. You will learn 
He does not judge you, as you judge yourself. He sees far more than you allow yourself to see. 
He is there to help you through the struggle which now entangles you. 

I next saw a ball at the curb-side of the street. It was just a bit smaller than the size of a 
tennis ball. It was a yellow rubber ball. As soon as I heard myself think that, I was singing 
a song from the mid 1960’s. Paul Simon wrote it just to make some money, and it was soon 
recorded by the Cyrkle. 

Yes, it’s going to be ok. 
Yes, the worst is over now. 
The morning sun is shining like a red rubber ball. 

But wait.... It was a yellow ball that I found.   In what I find, yellow can relate to joy and revelation. 
It is that which you need, in allow God to reveal the true value of James/Jim.

THE ROD OF AUTHORITY
November 12, 2015

In the book of Exodus, The Lord appeared to Moses in a burning bush and asked him to go to Pharaoh with a prophetic word. Moses replied, "But suppose they will not believe me or listen to my voice; suppose they say, 'The Lord has not appeared to you.' Then the Lord said to Moses, "What is that in your hand?" Moses replied "a rod". The scripture goes on to say how the Lord commissioned Moses along with Aaron to deliver the Israelites out of Egypt. Although He released miracles, signs and wonders, Pharaoh resisted the word from the Lord "Let My people go" until He sent ten plagues on Egypt. The Lord used Moses with a rod to part the Red Sea for the children of Israel to escape as Pharaoh and his army drowned.

In the book of First Samuel the Lord used a rock and a slingshot in the hands of David to slay Goliath. He also used Davids mighty men to kill thousands with spears. One man named Shamgar slayed 600,000 with an ox goad. Throughout the bible we see how God used ordinary people in extraordinary ways with objects such as sticks and stones.The Lord has placed something in each one of our hands and the Holy Spirit is saying to you today, what is that in your hand?

The Lord says; I will use that which I have placed in your hand. Do not say that I am the least of these or I am unable to speak. I will establish you and speak through you. Do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever is given to you at that time; for it is not you who will speak, but the Holy Spirit. Your words will be spoken from a place of My authority.

I will place My anointing upon you in the courts of Pharaoh. You will understand your potential as you walk in My anointing, demonstrate My power, and release My glory. I have placed My rod of authority in your hand, and My sword of the Spirit in your mouth. You will use My rod of authority to part the sea that is obstructing others from coming into the kingdom, and destroy the armies that are coming against you. You will see the plans of the enemy thwarted and his army obliterated.

In this season. I will use you to deliver My people out of Egypt and set many free from demonic bondage. There will be a mass Exodus of people coming out of spiritual Egypt, released from the kingdom of darkness, and delivered into the Kingdom of light. When it seems like the enemy is gaining on you, you will outwit him as you raise your rod of authority and watch the seas part. The plans of the enemy will be ineffective against your life. You are about to cross over into a new dimension and you will surely see my goodness in the land of the living says the Lord.

Then the Lord brought me to the New Testament. The Lord brought unusual miracles by the hands of Paul. He used napkins and aprons that were touched by Paul to heal the sick and even drive out demons. He used Peters shadow to heal people.

You will experience My power and demonstration once again. I will use your hands to heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, and cast out devils. I will also testify to My word through signs, wonders, miracles, and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to My will. You shall decree a thing and it shall be established because I have commissioned you to do and release My light into dark places, and I will give you the discernment to recognize the counterfeit from the genuine. Many will walk in an anointing that will stagger the minds of unbelievers, and bring many into the kingdom in the days ahead," says the Lord.

Habakkuk 1:5 Look among the nations and watch- Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it were told you.

Acts 5:14-16 And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed"

Acts 19:11-12 Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them"

The Father says today that kingdom perspective is not a natural point of view. Your forward momentum is established by what you see by faith, not what the circumstances before you warrant. No more waiting on an opportune time to move forward. Faith ends in sight beloved, it does not begin in sight. So walk this day by faith and not by the tea leaves of a natural perspective. Refuse to be as the wizards of old who would peep and mutter and decide whether conditions were favorable or not. Favor is a state of being found in Me and not in the situation at hand. I am with you and will bless what you put your hand to. Therein lies the assurance of the outcome. You will succeed because I am with you. You will overcome because I will never leave or forsake you. Be of good courage, gather your wits about you and move forward.

There is a season to wait and a season to forbear waiting. This is not a waiting time this is a doing time. If the circumstance doesn't move then go out in your faith and move the circumstance. There is nothing passive about walking in My kingdom. The kingdom suffers violence and the violent take it by force. Move forward. Press in. Refuse to yield to timidity or fear. Reject religious platitudes that only encourage failure. My kingdom is on you and in you - no longer delaying as though I have not shown up in your situation. This is the day. Today you conquer. Today the promise is yours to enter into so rejoice!

NEXUS POINTS ARE HERE!!

November 9, 2015

 

I was watching a movie with my husband last night and one of the characters in the movie mentioned the words “NEXUS POINTS” and as soon as I heard those words I felt the Lord was highlighting them and wanting to speak.  

I began to research into the definition of nexus points and here is what I found.



“Nexus points are places where destiny and opportunity COLLIDE. Where God’s call and man’s courage will intersect. They are strategic moments that speak to the core of history and purpose, of decisions and the trying of men’s souls. They are opportunities to demonstrate in the moment of testing that your heart is true, that out of the fire comes precious treasure and not garbage to be swept aside.” (1 Corinthians 3:11-13) (Quotes taken from: http://william.meisheid.com/religious_writings/nexus.htm)

There are strategic moments of destiny opening up where God’s call and your courage are about to collide. I saw many of God’s people in their prayer closest and they were crying out to God for the “next step”, for open doors and release into destiny. As they prayed and cried out to the Lord there was a shaking that began to happen around them. Some of the shaking made it looks like they were further from ever seeing a destiny door open, some of the shaking was seeing things move around and everything was “up in the air”.

Their hearts were intertwining with the heart of Papa God and bringing a heavenly shaking to usher in the change of season and new alignments.

Suddenly, I saw doors begin to appear before the people of God and they were labelled “STRATEGIC”. As the people of God watched Papa open the doors and they began to step through, they were moving into NEXUS POINTS. Many were shocked and taken back that as they moved through these doors, there was a test before them.

The tests were different for different people, but the common denominator of the test was COURAGE. It required a step into deeper trust in Him, a step away from fear and a step into a level of supernatural strength and courage that they have not known before, but as they stepped forward in courage because of WHO was with them, what unfolded before them was BIGGER and greater than they imagined and the FRUIT of their partnering with Him, moving forward in courage was DOUBLE what they thought they would see. 

Nexus Points are upon the people of God, the ‘next steps’ of the people of God moving further into their callings.

Don’t be disheartened, dismayed or discouraged by the ‘test’ that is before you there is GRACE for the more. Lean into Him, close to His chest, listen to the rhythm and whisper of His heart and be filled with courage and strength to continue to move forward.

The giants that stand waiting for you on the other side of your NEXUS POINT door in the ‘test’ are going to be SLAYED as you stand TALL IN HIM and in courage because of the beautiful, faithful One who stands WITH YOU.

These nexus point doors are not only seeing God’s call over your life and your courage colliding but as you move through these tests and you face these giants and see them slayed, you will see that this nexus point door is a SIGNIFICANT, STRATEGIC one as it is an EFFECTUAL DOOR, the KEY DOOR that is going to release the OPENING OF MANY “SUDDENLY DESTINY DOORS” from this point on.

I saw strategic networks developing on the other side of these destiny doors. I saw a rearranging of relationships taking place. The Lord is sending the strategic people you need to walk with you in this nexus point and beyond. Steward this door well in the place of intimacy and watch how DESTINY is about to be unlocked over you like a tidal wave.

Word for November 2015

Realign! November 2015 is a time when God's people must realign.  "My people, my people, my people are out of alignment," says the Spirit of the LORD.  "Many have forsaken my covenant promises to align with the world but I say, this day, a realignment is coming to My people," says the Spirit of the LORD, "and this alignment will cause pain before it brings restoration.  Get ready to realign." A Great Shaking.  I heard the earth crack and pop and a large deep gap formed mysteriously in the earth. Scientists were left baffled and speechless with the sudden wedges in the ground. Grace.  I AM bringing great grace to those who have stood firm in the midst of adversity.  I AM bringing great grace to those who have cried aloud and spared not.  "Hold on," says the Spirit of the LORD, "for I have not forsaken you." Prayer Strategies.  A shift in prayer strategies will take place during the month of November.  Many will begin to see the manifested hand of God in their lives as they prostrate themselves in prayer.  No more will their prayers be intercepted by the enemy but they will break through to new levels in the earth realm and they will walk with new authority in Christ. Anchor Yourself.  Get anchored, get anchored, get anchored in the Rock.  Christ is the Rock and as you anchor yourself, the enemy will not get a foothold in your home or job.  Do not be alarmed by the dark days ahead, anchor yourself now and be ready for the transition. Pray for the Youth.  "Many are misled by the sins of humankind but I will bring restoration as you cry out for them," says the Spirit of the LORD.  I AM raising up an intergenerational army of believers who will work hand-in-hand against the forces of darkness.  Pray for the youth for My hand is on them to take dominion in their spheres of influence. Prayer Points: Pray for America.  I saw a great weeping taking place in the earth.  Those who have turned from God will cry out in repentance as waves and waves of turbulence hit the earth.  A new thing such as never seen before will take place in the month of November.  When it comes, know it is from the hand of God and that His coming is at the door. Continue to Pray for Israel.  Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for Russia, China, Japan, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Canada (especially Toronto), and the outskirts of the United States of America.  God is reshaping the landscape of America as the powers that be align with Iran the land in America will continue to shift until the people of God begin to cry out for mercy and grace.  I see an army aligning against Israel but nothing will take place until God says it's time.  Stay faithful, keep the faith, and occupy!  Unleashing the power of the prophetic pen, building Kingdom Commanders, and Restoring Ancient Paths, Deborah Humbly released for prayerful discernment on November 1, 2015

THE GREAT DAY OF THE LORD IS NEAR, IT IS NEAR, AND 
HASTETH GREATLY, EVEN THE VOICE OF THE DAY OF THE 
LORD:THE MIGHTY MAN SHALL CRY THERE BITTERLY 


BY:Julie 

I received this vision and message today, November 5, 
2015. As these words came through this morning, I was 
shown the inside of the earth cracking and splitting, 
fissures occurring simultaneously around the world, then 
opening up to very large holes and cracks on the surface. 
Then there was a great, great shaking. Father said this 
cracking and breaking apart inside the earth is happening 
now, very quickly. 



Speak daughter, for I wish My people to understand what 
must come to pass. The United States is surrounded by her 
enemies and will be plundered. Your betrayal of Israel 
will bring about destruction, as your leaders have 
betrayed you, the people. 

California, California, California, oh how you have 
grieved My heart. I will destroy you and all of the 
abominations that have been a defilement in My eyes. New 
York, I will burn you and lay waste your city. You will 
be reduced to burning rubble and ashes. Miami, your cup 
of iniquity is overflowing and I will utterly consume and 
destroy you in your wickedness. 

The foundations under the earth are breaking apart. I am 
causing the earth to open her mouth and many places will 
be swallowed and they will be no more. 

A great and terrible day is come, the Day of the Lord is 
a day of great suffering and darkness. Who shall 
withstand this great shaking that I am bringing? Who will 
be found worthy to escape the judgments of the wicked and 
the unrighteous? Who among you has heeded My warnings to 
walk the path of holiness and purity? 

America, you have severely tried Me and continue to 
openly mock Me. 

I WLL NOT BE MOCKED!!! 

You have broken the covenant your forefathers made with 
Me and spit upon My laws. You have no honor, you are 
shameful, and you are a disgrace in My sight. I will 
cause you to choke as I make you to drink your own vomit 
and filth. The blood and the cries of the innocent are on 
your hands. 

I am about to shake this earth mightily and all will know 
I AM God! 

Your leaders have called for the division of My Holy 
land, therefore, I will divide your land. 

I will now speak to those who have remained in covenant 
with Me. Mine who are walking in purity and truth, Mine 
who obey My Word and are in union with Me- ready 
yourselves for My great outpouring. As all is crumbling 
around you, you will have My supernatural peace and great 
will be your exploits in My name. I speak to all My men 
and women who know in their hearts that I have been 
preparing them for something greater. I have been 
speaking to your spirits about repositioning; for some, 
relocating; for a great transition is upon you. Many of 
you will be required to walk away from all you have 
known- family, relationships, employment, fellowships- 
for a new season is upon My Bride, My Remnant. The work I 
am having you to do lies outside the parameters and the 
dimension you have previously operated in. 

It is crucial that you come to Me now for instructions 
and counsel, ever ready to move and to do My bidding. 
Pray to be used mightily in the Spirit, and it shall be 
done. My Bride will transcend space and time to fulfill 
her purpose on this earth. 

As darkness covers these lands and the mighty threshing 
takes place, My remnant will only know supernatural 
glory, as My anointing upon you will cause powerful 
manifestations from My Kingdom Realm. 

Remember all I have told you. As the darkness grows 
darker, you My lights will shine brighter. There is 
nothing you will not do when you abide in Me, in My name, 
in My presence, always... 

My Bride, you have been chosen before the foundation of 
time to be here in this realm now, to alter this reality, 
to be the expression of pure Spirit as I originally 
created all mankind to be. 

The original blueprint if you would, was for man to be 
made in My image and likeness in this realm, therefore 
bring Heaven to earth-thy Kingdom come, thy will be done, 
on earth as it is in Heaven. You were designed and 
purposed to be My reflection, hence, there is to be no 
distinction between Us. We are One Spirit. 

The cry has gone out for My mature ones to rise. My glory 
is arisen in you and through you. 

Do not be deceived nor be weary My loves. All commences 
as it has been spoken and what has been put in motion 
will not be stopped. Keep your feet firmly planted in Me, 
the Rock and the only foundation. Feel the rush of My 
mighty breath upon the lands. 

Boldly and with authority My children take your 
positions. 

Be strong and of good courage. 

I COME... 
YAHUSHUA 




Genesis 12:3King James Version (KJV) 

3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him 
that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the 
earth be blessed.
