Flood Waters Are Rising
June 19, 2006

Wrong-doing and wrongful living abounds. I have told you that I will never again send a flood to destroy the earth. Instead, I will send a flood to renew the earth. 
    It is a flood of My  Spirit and it is already up to your ankles. Can you not see it? Can you not feel it? Take heart, for the flood-tide is rising and your heart will rejoice when it becomes hip deep and then waist deep. My heart will be satisfied if you rejoice now, before the evidence of My outpouring mounts, so that your faith is demonstrated. Faith pleases God.

In His Presence: Run to Meet with Me
June 13, 2006

Run to Me and I will run to you. Come enthusiastically with rejoicing. I will meet you with the same enthusiasm and joy. It is My will for you to do this and I am very much on hand, prepared and ready, with a plan for our meeting. 
    Draw in to Me and I will draw in to you. Rejoice in Me and I will rejoice over you. Bless Me with your full-attention presence and I will bless you with My presence.
    Now be for Me My bride. Shift your focus entirely to Me. Think of Me as you go about your daily tasks. Plan dates with Me. Spend time alongside Me, for I AM your holy Bridegroom. Remember Me as I always remember you.

Proclaim His Coming in Glory
June 12, 2006

Go before Me. Go forth to go before Me. Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Let the spirit of Elijah, which is the spirit of John the Baptist, come upon you to proclaim His coming. 
    He comes to fill His temple with glory. No longer will My holy nation be called Ichabod (the glory has departed). My holy nation, My spiritual Israel, will be called Beloved of the Lord. 
    My temple is made of living stones, each one polished like a gem. The brilliant beauty of this temple filled with God's presence will become the joy of the whole earth. Nations will be affected by the manifest presence of the Lord in His temples. The shekinah glory will indeed come.
    Now relax because God will do it all through you. Rest. Now is the time to utterly cease striving because what is coming is too big for you to in any way handle. Don't try to steady the ark. Don't be like Peter, presumptuous in the very presence of the Most High at the Transfiguration. 
    Stand in awe as witnesses. Remain at rest, that Seventh Day Sabbath rest, and simply watch God carry off the whole work. Oh, it will be glorious! And oh, you will satisfy My heart -- if you will just slow down, quiet your soul, and become WITNESSES to My coming glory and My coming in glory. 
    I need you to watch Me do this. Don't be blinded by cares; focus on Me. Keep your eyes on Me and see glorious things. Oh My beloved, don't miss it! 

2 Samuel 6:7 And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Uzzah; and God smote him there for touching the ark and he died there by the ark of God.

Matt 17:2-4  And His appearance underwent a change in their presence; and His face shone clear and bright like the sun, and His clothing became as white as light. And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, who kept talking with Him. Then Peter began to speak and said to Jesus, Lord, it is good and delightful that we are here; if You approved, I will put up three booths here -- one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah.

The Nations Are Needy
June 11, 2006

Go! Receive My refreshment and then go, for the nations are needy Go, for the peoples are hungry and faint with thirst. Go, because the need is strong and you are well equipped. Go.
    I am your God. You have no other. See what I will do. My right arm has wrought salvation and My two arms will fight for you. I will subdue your enemies. I will spoil the enemy's plans and reveal his strategies. My victory will come into play stronger and more powerfully than ever before.
    Believe in Me as I believe in you. Don't doubt Me. Be bride to Me.

Psalm 98:1  Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him.

Jesus Says, I Come
June 5, 2006

Go into your future with expectation, faith expectation, about what  God will do. For He will do it! Behold! See with your eyes the salvation, deliverance and blessing of our God. Prepare for no-holds-barred blessing. Prepare for deliverance, personal loosing of family members and individuals you know. Prepare for exuberance and joy - yes, joy which you though you'd never regain - even ecstasy. For behold I COME. I come. I come. Rejoice with Me. I come.
    Therefore prepare your heart as a highway for our God, because I will use you as a gate to the peoples, as a route to them and into their hearts. 
    In yourself, prepare ye the way of the Lord. Purify your heart. Cleanse the temple, for a highly exalted visitor is coming to STAY. Temple, rejoice! Your God is coming.

Go Forward Full Throttle Ahead 
May 30, 2006

Go forward into your future with eyes wide open. Trust Me for what's ahead. Stay alert, highly alert, both for the Holy Spirit and for guarding against the enemy and his tactics. Don't fall asleep like the five virgins or the disciples at Gethsemane. Stay awake and alert. Pleasure, leisure and distractions will cause you to become dull and heavy with sleep.
    Go full throttle ahead, face forward, no turning back or sloughing off. This is the time when we cannot miss even one step. Keep progressing to make the goal of your eternal position that I have shaped for you. Keep on keeping on! I will give you the strength.
    Release the power within you in this coming hour. Release it to do all it is intended to do. "All" is outlined in the Scripture, such as Isaiah 61-62. You are moving into the fullness of what  God has ordained for His people.

Let the King of Glory Come!
May 27, 2006

Go before Me. Go before Me as I go before you. Prepare the way. Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make a highway for our God. Lay down your cloak, your "mantle" (i.e. your anointing) on the ground, the way of My triumphal entry into the city of God, the city-seat of government, that I may ride upon it in procession. Open the gates before Me, the King of Glory, for I come.

An Invitation from the Lord - 2-part message:

Be Refreshed at My Banquet
May 24, 2006

Come! Come to the table of the abundance of the Lord. Eat and drink. Refresh yourself here. Recline and rest your body even as your soul receives refreshment at the hand of the Lord. 
    Let Me wash your feet, which have walked through unclean places and tramped in heavy warrior's boots. Let Me cleanse your hands which have handled matters overwhelming to you. Let Me wipe your brow and sponge your cheeks, which are stained with tears. 
    For the enemy has launched a harsh assault against you but you have come through in the power of the Spirit. Now dwell in My house, the place of peace and refreshment for as many days as it takes you to be restored.

A Feast in the Wilderness
May 29, 2006

Come! Come to the table of the Lord, the feast, for it is set. Taste and eat of the good things, the delectables, before you. Drink the new wine, the water-made-wine, which I have reserved for the last. Open your eyes and see the banquet table before you. The feast is a table prepared in the wilderness; it is a banquet in the midst of your enemies. It is My vindication for My beloved. Now come!
    It is the feast of Isaiah 25, a smorgasbord of fine things held back until this particular point in time. Do people go to a banquet to feast in the morning? (It is the morning of The Third Day.) It is a brunch that becomes lunch, then dinner, a continual meal, a feast from now on. Believe and enter in!

Note: Mary Ellen Gilliland's book, Heaven On Earth, Here And Now, is a prophetic picture of this long-promised feast prepared by the Lord of Hosts. Find more information at www.zoebooks.com/Heaven On Earth, the book.

Break Out Into Your Future
May 2, 2006

I indeed am God. What will unfold for you now is good, better than you imagine. The breakthrough, the breakout, the new time is coming and is here. Your long wait is over.
    But the old - the old structures, the old way - has passed away, and I will be doing something NEW. Forget your old mindsets. Forget your religious perspective. For example, you say, "I am too humble to ask for God's glory." Forget all that, says the Lord, for it is a new time and a new era. 
    You have moved out of Transition. The usurper, the Absalom spirit has come to foment division and insurrection but the Spirit of God in you has overcome. And now the reign of peace, the Solomon reign, can begin. And so can the Song of Solomon be sung, the song of the bride and the bridegroom. For the King, the King of Peace, desires the beauty of His bride.
    This time of testing has been severe and harsh, and yet has yielded much for your soul. Never has My bride, the church, been more beautiful to Me, says the Lord.

Two Revelations about Walls Coming Down
May 22, 2006

1.  Jericho Victory Just Ahead

I heard the Lord say, "Going on. Moving on from here. Rising to a new elevation. Progressing toward destiny." 
   
It is the time for Israel, My people, to be on the move. Break up your camp. Move out of the familiar - don't grumble! - and disassociate yourself with the comfortable and the predictable, because these things will change. 
    The trumpet is blowing; the sound rides on the air. Change is imminent, is now, and you must be ready, prepared to move. Let go of any entanglements. Lay down and just leave behind any burdens, for the order to "move out" will come quickly. Then you must be prepared to go.
    This move is in the spirit but nevertheless very real. It is a move forward, not backward. It takes you from where you have camped in your transition to your next place of testing and overcoming, a new level of achievement in the Spirit, with a new empowerment accompanying it.
    It's your Jericho, for the walls are coming down. Expect a new level of the prophetic. The trumpets will sound and then a mighty SHOUT of praise throughout the earth, before your Jericho walls tumble down and you gain access to the enemy's camp, his bastion, his seat of authority, and utterly rout him.
    From then on, the victory is YOURS. The tide turns, so to speak. The battle changes. You are on a victory march through the land and ALL of it shall be yours. All of it shall be yours, prophesies the Lord, your God. All of it shall be yours.

2.  Prepare for the Greatest Love You've Ever Known
May 2, 2006

I will encamp against you all around; I will encircle you with towers and set up my siege works against you. Isaiah 29:3

My lover is like a gazelle or a young stag. Look! There he stands behind our wall, gazing through the windows, peering through the lattice. Song of Solomon 2: 9

Do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires. Song of Solomon 2:7., 3:5 and 8:4

I will captivate you. The stag waits behind your walls and lattices. The Bridegroom has unleashed His love for the bride. She says and knows, "Do not wake my love until it is time." Well, it is time! Awaken, love of the bride, for the Bridegroom's love is unbridled. It is loosed. Step out from those broken down walls, which He will break down, and see, meet with your Beloved.
    Come! The Spirit and the bride say, Come, Lord Jesus. And He comes, specifically as Bridegroom of their hearts, He comes. 
    Prepare for and enter into the deepest love relationship you have ever had. It's coming. Get ready! Simplify your life. It's here, even at the door. 
    Relax. He will do it all.

Clear Vision for God's Glory
April 30, 2006

Behold My glory. I remove the scales from your eyes. I lift the veil from the face of My bride. I remove the shroud from the body of Christ. I dispel the cloud mentioned in Isaiah 25.

Isaiah 25:7  And He will destroy on this mountain the covering of the face that is cast over the heads of all peoples (in mourning) and the veil (of profound wretchedness) that is woven and spread over all nations.

"On the third day a wedding took place at Cana." John 2:1
 
April 25, 2006

I AM  God. The new wine I am pouring out for the Third Day wedding at Cana is champagne. Drink deeply of the champagne of our love. Let it go to your head. Be intoxicated in our love, as the disciples who appeared drunk on the day of Pentecost. Let every care roll off of you onto Me as you feel the elixir of our love permeate and refresh your body. 
    For Cana is the low place, the place of flesh, of human desire, but the flesh in My bride has been overcome. So there, in Cana, we celebrate the wedding feast, the seven-day feast of our love, Come! This wine will refresh and renew your body. Come. Rejoice. Feast on My love. 
    Receive My healing in your body, My bridal people, as you drink the new wine, the water-made-wine, the best wine saved for last, the Third Day wine of God's intense love for you.

Repent then and turn to God, so that your sins may be wiped out, that times of refreshing may come from the Lord. Acts 3:19

All That You Need, I AM 
April 17, 2006

Know this day that I AM God. I AM Peace. I AM your joy, your strength. I AM your Salvation. I AM your Alpha and Omega, your beginning and end. I AM the One for whom you are made. All your life's fulfillment is found in Me.
    Therefore, make Me your goal. Therefore, focus your thoughts and energies on Me. Therefore, fix your creative imagination on My Self and get absorbed in Me. Lose yourself in Me. I AM your eternal reward.

Isaiah 21 Unveiled in 2006
April 12, 2006

Open your eyes and see. Open your ears and hear. Stretch your spiritual senses. Strain them. For much is happening in the Spirit that I would have you see and hear. If the watchman is dull of hearing and dim of sight, who will guard the people and the city?
    Indeed the horsemen are coming, indeed the donkeys and the camels are coming. Pray. Ask Me and I will tell you.
    (The horses, donkeys and camels appear in Isaiah 21:6-9. When asked, the Lord revealed what these symbols conveyed:)
    Camels - They represent slow-moving trends, such as Iran's nuclear challenge and a build-up toward war in the Middle East.
    Donkeys - They bear burdens. Donkeys bear the heavy load of world problems such as the oil cost crisis.
    Horses - They come swiftly, bearing men as riders. They represent fast-moving events involving men -  people, key figures, leaders. Examples are Ariel Sharon's sudden stroke and the quick rise of the new Israeli leader. Also the overnight legitimization of Hamas, the militant Palestinian  group.

Worship: Battle Strategy in the War Room of God
April 7, 2006

Go your way in peace knowing that the time is short. All things are in My hands. My power exerted through My people shall establish My kingdom of heaven upon the earth. 
    Great trials and troubles will attend this transition. Be aware. Be realistic. Be grounded. It won't be pretty. But the culmination of the process, like with My cross, will be glory. 
    That is where we are going together, to the establishment of My glory. You were put upon the earth for such a time as this. Your part of the great battle is in worship. Worship Me in spirit and in truth and you will be in the very center, the hot spot, of the great battle, safe and protected in Me, but operating in great power from the very war room of God.

Psalm 110:3 Your troops shall be willing in the day of your battle...

A Six-Part Prophesy on the Gift of Miracles

1.  Anointing for Miracles Released
    
February 20, 2006

Go, My child, in the anointing and empowerment I give you today. For I am pouring out a new anointing, one that was on the Lord Jesus Christ in His earthly ministry and one that will emerge in the people of God, the Sons of God, the Bride of Christ. It is the anointing of miracles.
     The wedding at Cana launched Jesus in his ministry of miracles. So the rise of the brides and the time of the wedding feast will launch the anointing of miracles in My people. 
    Prepare your heart not to be stunned. Steady your heart not to go off on the miracles themselves and be swept up in a false religion, the worship of miracles--for some will. Now I confirm to you what was prophesied of old, that "greater things than these (miracles) you will do." Release the anointing of miracles in prayer, for it is deposited on you now, My people. The Holy Spirit will do the work of release and implementation in your spirit as you pray.
    Go in full confidence in the future for as you see, it is all coming together. Your future is not dark--in no way--for you are coming into the light of the Son of God, the full power of the radiant, risen Christ shining at noon day. Hallelujah!

John 14:12  I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone steadfastly believes in Me, he will himself be able to do the things that I do; and he will do even greater things than these, because I go to the Father.

2.  The Holy Spirit Is Depositing Miracle Power in Us Now
     March 27, 2006

I Am God! I revealed My Self to Moses in this way and I desire for you to know Me as I-AM-God. 
   
Moses knew My miracles and I desire for you also to know My miracles. But first Moses knew Me, My very Self, and learned to trust Me implicitly and humbly. He obeyed. He was weak--he had become weak as opposed to his upbringing as a prince of Egypt. He felt old and incompetent, especially in speech, to address his brother the Pharaoh. But he overcame all that to obey. 
    You too will have to overcome obstacles like this to obey when I call you into your position of destiny. Therefore make up your mind now to throw off the old mindset and please Me greatly by your quickness to obey.

3.  Wisdom for Maintaining the Gift of Miracles
    March 27, 2006

Go into the whole earth, preaching and teaching My name. I will support you with signs and wonders--miracles. For I am depositing the gift of miracles in many believers right now. It's not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit, says the Lord. This gift is given quietly and in secret, but it will be unveiled and brought out in the open for all the world to see. 
    The people will rush you, crush you, push you to the point of exhaustion with their needs, as they did Me. Therefore it is important, even crucial to your survival, that you take time out to be alone with Me, just as I took time out to be alone with My Father, and to draw on His strength, His I AM Life. 
    Listen to My word and heed Me: Establish in your life now the holy habit of spending time alone with Me, for it will sustain you during the time of My glory which is to come.

4.  Healings, Deliverances, Knowledge and Signs
    April 16, 2006 (Easter)

Now go! You are commissioned this day by My resurrection to go forward and to go forth to do miracles. The resurrection power of the Lord Jesus Christ will operate in you to accomplish healings, deliverances, knowledge and signs - signs and wonders.
    Therefore relax because it doesn't depend on you. It depends on God, and He will do it. You will be a witness to it. Amen.

5.  Elijah-Type Miracles
    April 10, 2006

Elijah ran ahead of Ahab's horses to to Jezreel, a distance of 25 miles. "They who wait upon the Lord . . . shall run and not be weary." These are the days of Elijah in which you will run and not be weary, empowered by the Holy Spirit. You will do miracles, indeed more than Elijah who raised the dead. For the spirit of Elijah which came in John the Baptist will come again in the Third Day, to prepare the way of the Lord. 
    The spirit of Elijah is unleashed and arising. Elijah is one of the two witnesses of Revelation and will be very much present on the earth in days to come. Selah.

6.  Miracles: Listen Carefully for Direction to Act
    May 1, 2006

I am your God, indeed the God of a Second Chance. Believe in Me. Hope in Me. Expect (actively expect) Me to do good. I will perform miracles for you. 
    Now listen more accurately for the voice of the Spirit. Remember, I told Peter to cast his net in a second time, when he had already tried and failed at catching fish a little earlier that day. Let this be a lesson for you to listen and obey. it will be for your good.
    It depends on Me ,not on you, and you must learn to act when the anointing is there.

Examine Yourself : Are You Really Loving God and Others?

March 20, 2006

"Love the Lord God with your whole heart  . . . and your neighbor as yourself."  
   
Is there any part of your heart held back from Him? Are you fully and really loving your neighbor, especially those close to you and those you see in need? This is a message to you as well as the world. Are you fully keeping God's commandments? 
    Meditate on these things today, for the call to "come up higher" requires this level of perfection in Me. Who can ascend the mountain of the Lord? The one with clean hands and a pure heart. (Psalm 24:3-4) Know this today and let this word become a reality, let it "become flesh" in your life today.

Jesus Comes To Bring Abundant Life - Now!
March 20, 2006

I AM God. I am your life, your life source, giver of abundant life. This is My purpose now. As you are called to fulfill your destiny, I am fulfilling My destiny, that is, to bring you abundant life. More and more, believe Me for abundant life. The timing in God's scheme of things has reached the point for this: the fullness of the fulfillment of My promise and purpose, to bring abundant life. That's why I came. That's what I'm coming again to bring. Amen.

You Will Get Slammed by Blessing
March 14, 2006

I AM your God! I provide for your blessing. And the time for blessing, the time for payback has come, has truly come. Get ready to be knocked off your props by My goodness, overwhelmed by My mercy and grace. I will bless you in your children, a blessing long withheld, as in "fine things held back," (Isaiah 25:6 AMP) and your heart shall rejoice. 
    Oh, I am so happy to begin to fully bless you and all My children, says the Father God. This blessing will begin soon, and "soon" means in your earthly sense of the word. This blessing is prophesied. It satisfies My heart to bless thusly in the time of judgment. 
  Can you handle it? You are so wired for grief and disappointment that it's going to take you aback. Ask Me and I will help you to adjust.

The Catching Away Awaits Our Mighty Shout
March 9, 2006

Glory and praise to our God! Let there be praise rising from the earth. Let there be rejoicing in the Lord our God. Let there be a mighty roar, like the sound of many waters, coming out of worship. Let Me hear the sound, that it would be the mighty SHOUT that I need to hear to initiate the rapture, the catching away, the raising or elevation of the saints to a new level and dimension of spiritual life in Me. Amen!
    Be fully aware of the times you are in, when the glory of God is displayed for all to see. Hallelujah! It is coming. Hallelujah!

A Spiritual Window of Opportunity
March 7, 2006

My children, My dread warriors, My priests in the land and in the family, how you spend your day matters. How you spend your time this day is important for all eternity, as is each day to come in the "window" of opportunity I have given for now. It will affect your position and status for all eternity and your enjoyment of heaven. Really! I am serous 
    So apportion your day that you might grow in the word. Devise strategies to keep My commandments. Give earnest attention to growing in the areas assigned to you. Put the kingdom of God first every day. Amen.

Live Your Heaven Now
March, 2006

Be cognizant and aware of Jesus, His very presence in your life moment by moment. Know Him in the humble daily actions of life, for He is with you. Receive Him as your Lord and Master and as your Bridegroom. Begin to live with Him now so that that closeness will be achieved and set in stone for all eternity. Gain this! It is your goal.

A Keepsake Word from the Father
March 7, 2006

I am the Keeper of My beloved vineyard. You are right to know by the Holy Spirit that this vineyard pictures the vital love relationship of Christ, the Vine, and you, the branches. This is My beloved vineyard in which I have great joy as its Keeper. My vineyard will bring forth its fruit soon and quickly. And the wine of our love will be champagne, highly suited for the wedding feast of the Lamb.

Come Up Higher
March 5, 2006

I AM. Yahweh, I AM. The personal, relational God of Moses, I AM. Moses didn't have it easy--there was a cost--but he came to know Me. That is My way with you also. There is a cost but you will know Me. Who can ascend to the mountain of the Lord as Moses did? The one with clean hands and a pure heart. This is My requirement, an exacting requirement, but I will do it in you if you ask. If you ask. . .
    So go forward knowing that there is more, much more, being offered to you. Once more I say, Come up higher. I will be waiting for you on the mountain of My holiness.

Oh, My God
March 4, 2006

Oh, my god! 
    The world says this multiplied times every day, taking the name of the Lord in vain. But My people are also saying, Oh, My God! in worship, calling upon My name. It is a mighty chorus that rises above the chaotic clamor of the world, and it pleases Me. 
    The contrast is growing sharper between the tares and the wheat. The harvest is coming to maturity and the time for the tares to be gathered up and burned has almost arrived. 
    Therefore settle your heart that it is God's plan. Therefore steady yourself. Therefore look UP, for your salvation is night. Keep your mind and heart on things above. Keep the praise coming and the worship rising; you will have rain/reign, a rain of blessings that will make the desert blossom as the rose. There! I have spoken.

If God Has A Dream, This Is It
March 6, 2006

I AM your God. Never forget--always keep before you--our living, dynamic vital relationship. It is the most important thing in the universe, the reason I made man. If I achieve this in even a few lives, I am vindicated in making man. This is My heart's desire, to have a holy nation of people committed to Me in lasting love and unfailing devotion, who love Me with all their hearts. If God has a dream--and He does--this is it.
    Now I celebrate this, that I do have a holy nation, a people formed for Myself. Now I rejoice over My precious people. And in a time of judgment I will pour out on this people the overflow of My joy, a tidal wave of blessing and glory. 
    Most of all, I will bless them with My presence. Secondary to that, there will be miracles, glory moments and all kinds of jubilation and joy. Catastrophe will strike, yes, but My people will be seized in the grip of joy, fortressed in peace and basking in light. As in the plagues of Egypt, My people shall be insulated and isolated from the tragedy. I will keep you safe in the time of trial to come upon the whole earth. 
    Of course, you will give. Of course, you will help. Of course, you will pray. But you will not be touched by calamity.

Revelation 3:10  Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.

Judgment
February 27, 2006 

Come! Come to My side and rest with Me a while as I contemplate the judgment to be loosed upon the earth and upon your country, America.
     My heart is deeply troubled and distressed, for as you know, these are My children, My creation, My handiwork, My well-loved ones who will suffer in this destruction. I will lay siege works to their "houses" and raise up fortifications against them. They shall be battered like a wall and hemmed in with no recourse. Many shall die and be lost, utterly lost, to the kingdom. And Satan will receive them into his.
    Do you see why My heart is troubled and My loins are filled with anguish? These are My own people! And yet, judgment is called for in the word of God and planned for the timetable it is on. And nothing, not even the prayers of the saints, so beloved to Me, will stop it. For its progress in inexorable and unstoppable. 
    Therefore rejoice with the Lord of the Harvest as the tares are cut down and burned, that the wheat, the good wheat, remains and will be gathered into the Father's barns. Let us rejoice together in that.

Isaiah 21:3 Therefore are my loins filled with anguish, pangs have seized me, like the pangs of a woman in childbirth; I am bent and pained so that I cannot hear, I am dismayed so that I cannot see.

Isaiah 29:2-3  Yet I will besiege Ariel; she will mourn and lament. She will be to me like an altar hearth. I will encamp against you all around; I will encircle you with towers and set up my siege works against you.

Jesus' Reign of Peace: Bring It Forth by Faith
February 21, 2006

Regard Me in My glory. See Me in My glorious reign of peace. See it before it fully happens, that you might participate in its initiation by faith, living fully now what is to come and thereby bringing it about. That's the way faith works, cooperating with God to create things on earth. Open your eyes and see Jesus as the King of Peace, taking up His glorious reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. Watch it happen in the spirit. Then it will come forth in the earth, when faith births it. 

Your Destiny: A Window of Opportunity Is Open Now
February 14, 2006

Wrench your eyes from your earthly goals. Do not "lift up your eyes to false things." Rivet your eyes on Me. The goal of your life, and your destiny, is being formed and shaped now. What you do, think, say and aim for now will make/shape/create your destiny. 
    This is your window of opportunity. Seek first the kingdom of God. Strategize. How will you achieve this goal? Stretch yourself. Discipline your heart, your motivations. Show Me that you are serious about the kingdom of God.

Psalm 24:3-4  Who shall go up into the mountain of the Lord? Or who shall stand in His Holy Place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who has not lifted himself up to falsehood or to what is false, nor sworn deceitfully. (One translation says, "whose soul does not pay homage to worthless things.")

Come to the Feast on Zion
February 13, 2006

Come! Eat and drink at the festival banquet of the King. The time has started when the great banquet, prepared and ready, will be served. Then you will eat the fine delicacies held back, and you will drink the champagne of His love. Your heart will soar as you see the Lord of Hosts Himself take up His position at the feast on Zion. 
    All you have hoped and believed for and prayed, you will see realized there because "My people will not be disappointed anymore." Indeed, I am the God of recompense and payback time has come.
   So rejoice, My people, and make ready. Clear your schedule. Save the date. Prepare your garments. Anticipate. Anticipate with joy the onset of the Great feast on Zion, the Tabernacles Feast of the King. 

Isaiah 25:6 and 8a On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine...the Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces.

Author's Note:  To better understand this prophecy, refer to the book featured on this website Heaven On Earth, Here And Now. It gives a prophetic picture of God's end-time fulfillment of the Feast of Tabernacles.

I Come to Shake the Heavens and the Earth
February 13, 2006

Now I AM God. There is no other. The earth and the planets will soon bow to Me in a new way, for I come to shake--shake mightily--the heavens and the earth. Fear not, for I will keep you safe in the time of trial to come upon the whole earth. 
    Fear not. Rejoice instead. Look up! And see that your salvation is nigh. I tell you these things to console you so you  know for sure that I am in charge. Nothing shall in any way harm you. When vengeance comes, so does salvation from our God. There! It is spoken. Believe it. Plan on it. Plan for it. 

Spiritual Investment Strategy
February 5, 2006

You are right to study the Scriptures for My word does not return to Me void. Much reward to be found in seeking the wisdom of My words and meditating on it. My word shall not pass away; it is eternal. Since it will stay with you and benefit you forever, it is an eternal value that you are investing in and storing up now. And that is good.     
    That is lasting treasure, a resource you will use for all eternity. For the word-treasure that you store up now will be as much as you have for eternity, though it will multiply and continue forever to yield much fruit. So you see that while here on earth your investment of time and energy in the treasures of heaven is very, very important.

Matthew 6:19-20 Do not store up for yourselves treasure on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.

For Those Who Still Need to Establish Daily Time with the Lord
February 6, 2006

Note: The Lord has been warning that the opportunity to gain growth that will benefit us for all eternity is available now, for a short time only. He said previously, in late December:

Now is the time to make progress. The climate is right. The time is short. The "window" is open. Grace is poured out for the run to the finish line, for putting the capstone on the temple. 

He is reminding us today in a word received this week:

Go now, My child, understanding the times and the hour. Let your heart be steadied and sobered by the warning of the Lord. The time is very short and the opportunity for progress exists now. Make that progress in Christ Jesus today. Cause yourself to come into the presence of the Lord and sit at His feet to learn of Him. Bring yourself into the presence of the Master to know and adopt His ways. He is gentle and kind and He is anxious to teach you.

The God of Peace Is Pleased with His Children
January 30, 2006

Isaiah 35:27 The Lord be exalted who delights in the well-being of his servant.

I am pleased with My people, overwhelmed, in fact, with pleasure in My people. Yes! God is thrilled with the prosperity (peace, wholeness) of His servants, His children. 
    Yes! Jehovah Shalom loves to see fullness, completeness, wholeness and perfection in His children. And this is the work that His Holy Spirit is completing now. Let us rejoice together, says the Father, in the preparation of a people of peace. Yahweh rejoices.

Jubilee Promises: Exchange Mourning for Gladness

January 18, 2006  
In the time of Jubilee, overcome sorrow. Fight sorrow, grief and loss as a work of the enemy. Use the Scriptures in Isaiah 12, Hosea 6 and especially Isaiah 61 to drive him off with the sword of the Spirit. Conquer grief, sorrow, loss and regret finally, and I will give you beauty for ashes and roll away your reproach forever.

January 26, 2006  
Now joy should be part of your demeanor. Cast off the thoughts of regret and loss--even thoughts of exhaustion--and embrace the new. He will give you beauty for ashes, if you lay down the ashes, and glory for all of your shame, if you let go of the shame. It is an exchange. This is the season of Jubilee, so take full advantage of each provision of the Jubilee scriptures and promises.

Important:  We Must Seek the Lord's Will Before We Pray
January 24, 2006 

I asked the Lord today for understanding regarding the powerful  warnings that came forth for January 23's terrorist attack against a number of American cities. This attack did not happen.
    Now we know that intercession can cause God to arise and wipe out our enemies. This happened when good King Hezekiah prayed; 185,000 of the threatening Assyrian army were killed by the Angel of the Lord without a battle. (Isaiah 37)
    When I asked the Lord for understanding on the January 23 threat, He told me that the saints, who arose and prayed it down, prayed the wrong way. They may have prayed out of their emotions, possibly fear, or prayed what their minds told them was a logical prayer. 
    The Holy Spirit this morning took me to another story of Hezekiah, told in Isaiah 38, where the prophet informed the king that his illness would result in death. Hezekiah wailed and prayed and God delivered him from his illness and his death.
    The issue here was Hezekiah's desire for a son to carry on his reign. God had His own plan for the succession of the throne. The result of Hezekiah's prayer, made without consulting God about His will and plan, was to thwart God's will and override His fore-knowledge. Manasseh, Hezekiah's evil son, perpetrated idol worship and reversed every good reform Hezekiah made. Amon, the grandson, rivaled his father in evil-doing.
    In my personal life, I have prevailed on God in prayer to give me the intense desire of my heart. I got what I wanted. Years later I saw that the pain which ensued could have been averted if I had sought out and submitted to His will for my situation.
    The point is that Hezekiah, and we ourselves, must seek the Lord before we begin intercession. When I first asked the Holy Spirit how to pray regarding the January 23 prophecies and warnings, He instructed me to "worship, watch and wait." I worshipped the Lord as Judge over all the earth. I watched in the Spirit by praying in my prayer language. I waited, in the sense of "waiting on" or "attending" the Lord, by spending much time in His presence.
    The example of Hezekiah shows that prayer made without consulting God's will can result in much more serious consequences than the initial impending threat. It demonstrates that seeking the Lord's will before we begin to pray is a crucial element in our role as intercessors.

Jesus Takes Up His Reign of Peace
January 15, 2006

My kingdom reign is come. My reign of peace is advanced and ready to manifest. Everything is coming together now. All the strands of the tapestry of Bible prophecy are coming together to make one beautiful picture. All the themes God has presented are merging and will merge to make a beautiful, awesome whole. 
    This is the time to be living! See the greatness of it! Know the beauty and the majesty of the King as He takes up His Reign of Peace.

You Are My Witnesses Who Will Show Forth My Nature
January 15, 2006

I AM your God. Who is like unto My people, the created worshipping the uncreated God in spirit and in truth. There is truly a people on the earth who is the people of God, a cadre, a corps of worshippers the likes of which the world has never seen. This people will be released upon the earth, which retches in darkness and chaos. They will bring Light. They will do good and bring many to the knowledge of the Living God.
    And yet there is more. This people will go forth as a shining example of their God. They will witness to the I AM God. They will show forth Yahweh Himself--His nature--just as Jesus did. Therefore there will be an example, a living example, a witness on the earth of the unseen God.
    "Then you will know that I AM He." (Isaiah 43:10) After this witness is given, no man, woman or child will remain ignorant of the knowledge that I AM God. I have spoken it and it shall come to pass.
    Understand and know the importance of this impending move of God. Worship Him for it and stand in awe of Him because of it. Reverence Him in the big-scale mercy plan of the Lord of Hosts.

Isaiah 43:10 You are my witnesses, declares the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. Before me no god was formed nor will there be one after me. I, even I, am the Lord.

Jael, Take Up Your Tent Peg
January 9, 2006   

The Holy Spirit has made this writer to understand a revelation of a great work of the God of Love to come upon the earth. This earth-changing demonstration of the love of God will disarm one of the planet's biggest problems, the seething hatred between the Arabic world and Israel..

    The scenario can only be believed by faith and made credible by the knowledge of God's character. Otherwise it's incredible. God will cause Israel and the Arab world to come together. Israel and Ishmael, along with the other Arabic sons of Abraham, will embrace, brought together by the an outpouring of God's love. 

    God promised Abraham that all the nations of the earth would be blessed by Abraham's offspring. We know that Jesus, our Savior, fulfilled that prophetic promise. But the Holy Spirit is saying that there is a last days fulfillment of God's word to Abraham that will cause his natural sons, through Hagar, Sarah and Keturah, to become a blessing to the nations. Two specific promises from Genesis are:

    . . . Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him. Genesis 18:18 (Author's emphasis.)

       And in you shall all the families of the earth be blessed. Genesis 12:3

   The Lord of Hosts is ready to judge and bring down Allah, who is not the same God as the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the one who told Moses, I AM WHO AM. Allah is a totally different god, in fact, he is a false god who has been identified as Satan himself.

    How will all this come about? 

    God used a woman, Jael, to bring down the enemy commander, Sisera, in the prophetic story of Deborah and Barak's battle. Read this story in Judges 4 and 5. Deborah and Barak represent intercessors, prayer warriors. Jael represents the woman of the Muslim world. Her tent spike, driven through the head of Sisera, paves the way for the downfall of an evil king. King Jabin in the Judges story represents the brutal enemy king, Allah, god of Islam. 

    In all of this, keep in mind the greatness of God's heart and the depth of His mercy and love. In the face of violence and hatred, He will ordain a move which will result in the restoration of brotherhood between Israel and its enemy, the Islamic world. This new and blessed unity, which will bless the nations of the earth, will come about through Abraham's pre-eminent son, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is their Messiah.

    Prayer, concerted prayer by dedicated intercessors, will bring this event from heaven to earth.

Note: After this revelation was received, the Women Aglow Fellowship (an international ministry that prays for Islam) opened its national convention in November, 2005 with a re-enactment of the story of Jael from the book of Judges.

A New Wave of Judgment Is Coming
January 5, 2006

Isaiah 29:3 And I will encamp against you round about; and I will hem you in with siege works and I will set up fortifications against you. Note: Scriptures related to Isaiah 29:3 show that in Jerusalem houses were torn down to build battle defenses.

I will bring siege works against you. The "houses" (churches) of Judah and Jerusalem shall be torn down, for judgment begins in the house of the Lord. Each wave or cycle of judgment starts in the church and ripples or waves (like a tsunami) outward. 
    A new wave or cycle of judgment is coming because the last one, when the high towers toppled and every high thing exalted against God came down, brought no real or lasting change. This new judgment will undermine and bring down "houses." Houses built on the wall. Houses in the church, especially in "Jerusalem," the city-seat of government. Then, in the widening judgment, houses or families exalted in power and in corruption will come down. They are bastioned in against the "wall," thinking that no power or force can come against them to topple them.
     Behold, the Lord of Hosts as He begins to bring down every high, exalted thing again, this time by undermining from within. Jerusalem herself tore down her own houses for battlements. So be it today. I will distress Ariel.

Note: Ariel means an altar hearth, the altar of God. On the same day this word was received, it was announced that Ariel Sharon of Israel had suffered a massive stroke.

Kingdom Transition
January 6, 2006

Know that the increase of My peace characterizes My reign. This peace is and will be in My people, My temple(s).  It will be peace in the midst of storm, chaos and darkness. Sorry but that it true. My own shall enter into the Hebrew rest promised in Hebrews 3-4. 
    This rest shall dominate and pre-dominate their lives. Nothing will rustle them or rattle them because they know their God who is strong to save. They know His restoration, recovery and recompense--their 3 R's. They are rooted and ground in love, love of Him. So practice peace. Embrace rest. Let the will of God be done in your life that you might advance His reign. Now is the time; this is the hour in which He takes up His glorious reign.
    2006 will be a year of peace, yes, but peace in the storm, just as 2005 brought rest in the midst of heavy work. The Lord will establish His peace this year; it is an aspect of His reign just as happened in Solomon's time. We are in Transition of the Kingdom Reign, a transition from David (warfare) to Solomon (peace).
    But if you recall, the transition was turbulent. Solomon went through it with an attitude of peace. He held on to peace, so peace was given him during this reign.
    Similarly, the transition will be marked with high activity of enemy forces working to usurp the reign of the King of Peace. Be aware. Pray. Retain your attitude of peace throughout the chaos and God's kingdom reign of peace will be advanced. 

A Window of Opportunity Is Open Now
December 29, 2005

Now I will say a thing of importance to Me and of importance in the spiritual realm. GO FORWARD. 
    Now is the time to make progress. The climate is right. The time is short. The "window" is open. Grace is poured out for the run to the finish line, for putting the capstone on the temple. (Shout "grace, grace to it," for truly it is all done by grace in this hour.) 
    Tend to this. Turn your mind and your heart and your attention to it. Plan for it. Treat it like you would treat a worldly project. Make it a goal and take all the steps necessary to implement and achieve that goal. Study to show yourself approved. Train. Step out and do the things necessary to reach the goal.

Zechariah 4:7AMP  For who are you, O great mountain (of human obstacles)? Before Zerubbabel (who...was undertaking the rebuilding of the temple, before him) you shall become a plain (a mere molehill). And he shall bring forth the finishing gable stone (of the new temple) with loud shoutings of the people, crying Grace, grace to it!

Lose Yourself in the Lord God
December 27, 2005

Come! Now is the time to worship and praise and to lose your life in Me. Get lost in Me. Leave the world behind and come unto Me. I am here waiting and there is much to do, to see, to learn and to experience here in Me.
    Rejoice! I have given you a new lease on life, a new way of living, a new calling. It is to live your life in Me and transition seamlessly into eternity. This is transition time now, a crossing over the Jordan. Be fully aware of and fully actualized to this Time of Transition. It is a move out of the world into the spiritual sphere.
    I am your God. You are My child, My bride, My handiwork. I am yours; you are Mine. Is there nothing better? Concentrate your whole heart on this and let the passing life-stream be completely secondary. Don't invest your whole heart, your mind and strength there. Invest it in Me.

Destiny:  To Walk the Earth as Kings
December 21, 2005

I am preparing for Myself a people and I have chosen for Myself a bride. This people is a chosen people, a peculiar people and a special selected predestined people to walk the earth as kings in their time of destiny. 
    That time is both now and near. Some have already entered into their kingly position. Some are still coming, receiving the last touches of preparation and son-training. 
    It is the time of kings upon the earth and it is the time that My people must be praising Me as King, that I might inhabit their praises.
    Therefore praise Me in My majesty, My kingly authority, My heavenly reign and see it come to pass that the kings will walk upon the earth, resplendent in light, power, glory and authority. It will change your world when the reign of the Lord Jesus Christ begins.

Solstice Word:  Your Light Will Increase
December 21, 2005

Take on a renewed sense of enthusiasm and joy for truly all God's promises are being fulfilled. Restoration comes. Restoration IS. Restoration is a person, the Lord Jesus Christ. Now be released from your burden and released from the stall as a calf in springtime to bound across the green meadow. 
    I release you. Much has been done in the winter of your soul but now, as on the solstice, the light will begin to increase until the full light of the sun as noonday. The glory will correspondingly increase, slowly, almost imperceptibly, but truly. So be expectant. So be joyous. 

The Bride and the Bridegroom
November 8, 2005

All I am I give to you. All you are you give to Me. This is the bride and the bridegroom, a reality, a prophetic picture come to pass. "On the third day there was a wedding at Cana." Let the Third Day wedding begin! It is a seven-day or seven-segment feast, a wedding feast. Oh, I say, let it begin. Let the spiritual reality be seen on the earth in the natural sphere. Oh yes, let it be!

    I am your God! Let's get excited about this together. Forever you are with Me. Forever we are together. From now until always you are Mine and I am yours, always eternal forever. It is a good work, a great work, and it is done, sealed and forged, never to be broken. Oh, if you could see what I see and know what I know and understand the richness of this!

Like the Eagle after Molting You Will Soar
November 8, 2005

(Note:  Before molting, the eagle's sharp beak dulls, his acute vision clouds, his wings, heavy with oil and dirt, fail, and he becomes weak and useless, unable to protect himself, unable even to obtain food. After molting, new light feathers, a sharp beak and talons, and clear vision are restored.)

    I now declare a thing and it will be so:  The life you live in Me will prosper and be enriched - abundant life. I decree more life. I establish in you a new level of life. Your youth, your life, is renewed like the eagle's. You will mount up with wings of eagles. My people shall be willing in the day of My power, in the dew of their youth. (Ps. 110)
    Go forward knowing that this new life is happening, is going to happen. You will be refreshed and renewed like the eagle after molting. Your keen sight will return. Your new feathers will cause you to rise up and soar on new heights of God's glory and wisdom and revelation. So there! Let us meet in the air, because that's where you will be - soaring on the heights. I will meet you there.

Come Into His Presence
October 27, 2005

Come! Come to the banquet feast of your God. Feast on Him. In Him, in His presence, there are pleasures forevermore. He is your God. He is available as He was with Adam to walk with you in the cool of the evening in a garden of delights and satisfaction. Take advantage of this. Come.

A Promise for America
October 25, 2005

America, I will bless thee even in turmoil; in judgment I will bless thee and show thee My mercy. My graciousness and loving-kindness I will bring before thee, that you might know that I AM God. Experience Me, America. Taste My goodness and see that I AM God.

A Shift in the Heavenlies
October 25, 2005

Now prepare your heart! Get ready! Open your eyes and ears to see. Fling wide your doors and windows to let the fresh air in! This is the new year in the Spirit and great things are happening. 
    A shift is occurring in the heavenlies. Satan is more and more removed from his kingdom. The kingdom of God is more and more arising, strong, more stable, more sure. 
    Get ready to participate fully in this, to be fully initiated in the process. For it is a process to be sure. You are not going to wake up one morning and find your world changed. The kingdom of God comes not by observation but it is in men's hearts. You will not see the tide rise minute by minute. It is only by looking back and measuring that you will see its rise.

I Come! 
October 11, 2005

I come! In this Feast of Tabernacles, I come. As I told you, it is a process, like the tide coming in, rising on your feet, then reaching your ankles and above. It is like Ezekiel's river. So at this Feast of Tabernacles I come, rising in you, My people. 
    Rejoice! Let us rejoice because there is "more love, more power, more of Me in your life!" Let the river flow.
    Enjoy your day. Enjoy your life. Let this feast cycle richly bless you. Deeply repent on Yom Kippur. Richly rejoice during the week of Tabernacles. These feasts were given to prophesy the end times. These are the end times. Live out the prophetic time richly, aware of the spiritual significance, fully initiated in what God is doing in the earth and in His people.

Ezekiel 47:1-5 ... I saw water coming out from under the threshold of the temple ... He then ... led me through water that was ankle deep. .. (then) water that was knee-deep ... and led me through water that was up to the waist. ... now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in.

Authors Note:  Yom Kippur starts at sundown on Wednesday, October 12. The week-long Feast of Tabernacles begins at sundown on Monday, October 17.

Your Personal Judgment and Judgment of the Nations
October 6, 2005

Be advised and be instructed, and know and understand that I am God. The nations will tremble before Me. I have caused you to know that I am God through My Holy Spirit, and that in a good way. The end result of your personal judgment was the honor of "knowing Him." 
    For the nations, this judgment will be largely destructive because of unrepentant hearts. But anyone, or any people group with a modicum of sorrow for sin, will be saved, and shown great, great mercy. Mercy and judgment will abound. 
    Therefore prepare your heart to see God in action. Faint not at the power of My judgment. (It is My last resort in the process of discipline.) Let not your heart be troubled; neither be afraid. Rejoice over My mercy which you will see demonstrated. Oh, how I want you to stay steady! It is so important to Me. Go in peace.

His Glory in You Will Stun the World
September 20, 2005

Do not shrink back from your future and try to hide. Do not fear or dread your future. Look at the brightness ahead--My glory--coming into your life and your world: "Christ in you, your hope of glory."
    Well, the time for the glory is here. Rejoice that you were chosen to participate in it and witness to it. All of heaven has waited for this day and this hour, blessed beloved, and now it is come. Rejoice with Me. Rejoice with the heavenly beings who serve Me. Rejoice with your brothers and sisters on the earth for the time has come. Alleluia!
    The anointing of Messiah has gone forth to set the captives free and undo every yoke. And now freedom reigns! The atmosphere is right for the people of God to rise up from their former shackles and pain and to let God be God! His glory will fill them soon, in this hour, and the world will reel and be stunned over the glory God in His people.
    Relax and KNOW that I am God. I will do it all. Your part is to be an active WITNESS to the glory of God that all generations may know through you WHO GOD IS. Amen.

The Lord of Hosts Stands Up to Judge
September 26, 2005

I AM God. My power will be displayed before nations. My judgments will come fast and furious now, for I AM the Lord of Hosts, the One to whom is given the power and authority and rule to judge. And judge I will. 
    The American economy, like the economies of other nations, will take a hit. I am standing up to judge. Relax and watch as a witness. Stand in awe at the power and authority of your God. Be My cheering section. Cheer Me on as I dispense justice, for many will shake their fist and curse God. Let Me drink at the brook of your praise as I left up My head. 
    Be assured that all this is done out of love. Firm love. Tough love. The invitation to repent and the grace--ample help in time of need--has been offered over and over. Now comes a harsher wake-up call, a shake-up call, to cause people, multitudes, to look to Me for salvation. And they will. They will!
    Stay with Me during this and gratify My heart with your love. Solace Me, for you are My bride. Each life taken in this judgment, believe Me, is precious to Me and is a chosen life--one that will bring other loved ones to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. In a sense, they are martyrs.
    Relax and enjoy recompense as these judgments are dealt out because you will prosper, be enriched and be glad.

Psalm 110:7  He will drink from the brook beside the way; therefore he will lift up his head.
