“This Shaking Is Not for Destruction, but for Transformation” – Arleen Westerhof, Netherlands Prophetic Council



“This Shaking Is Not for Destruction, but for Transformation” – Arleen Westerhof, Netherlands Prophetic Council

March 20, 2020 Arleen Westerhof, The Netherlands



From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

Dear Elijah List Readers,

It’s important to receive from our European prophets. Here is an important word by Arleen Westerhof.

I don’t normally put in a personal correspondence between other prophets and myself, but I felt it would give you a flavor of how we all communicate at times like this.

So here it is…from Prophet Arleen Westerhof:

Dear Steve and Derene, 
I hope you’re both doing well and are at peace in these tumultuous times. We’ve talked a few times at the Global Prophetic Consultation meeting in 2018 and at the ACPE meeting in Dallas last November. You’ve published several of my prophetic words in the past. Back then, I led the Netherlands Prophetic Council. Now I also co-lead the European Prophetic Council together with Dr. Sharon Stone.

I want to say “thanks” to you both for getting life-giving prophetic words out there when hope and perspective are so badly needed right now.

Here’s my contribution to the mix. It’s called: “This shaking is not for destruction, but for transformation.”

Abundant blessings to you both,

Dr. Arleen Westerhof,
Founder and Director, Netherlands Prophetic Council

“This Shaking Is Not for Destruction, but for Transformation” Arleen Westerhof, Amsterdam, Netherlands

Concerning the coronavirus, the Lord would say, “When I am lifted up I will draw all men unto Me” (John 12:32). This text refers to Jesus being lifted up on the Cross. As I waited on the Lord, however, I kept seeing the replica of a poisonous bronze “snake” being lifted up on a pole: “So the Lord sent poisonous snakes among the people, and many were bitten and died. Then the people came to Moses and cried out, ‘We have sinned by speaking against the Lord and against you. Pray that the Lord will take away the snakes.’ So Moses prayed for the people.

Then the Lord told him, ‘Make a replica of a poisonous snake and attach it to a pole. All who are bitten will live if they simply look at it.’ So Moses made a snake out of bronze and attached it to a pole. Then anyone who was bitten by a snake could look at the bronze snake and be healed!” (Num. 21:6-9).

The Serpent and God’s Judgment on ItThe book of Genesis tells us that it was the serpent that was responsible for death, destruction, sickness and disease entering the world. The serpent lied and Adam and Eve chose to act independently of God: “‘You won’t die!’ the serpent replied to the woman. ‘God knows that your eyes will be opened as soon as you eat it, and you will be like God, knowing both good and evil'” (Gen. 3:4-5).

This is the same spirit that Isaiah talks about: “How you are fallen from Heaven, O shining star, son of the morning! You have been thrown down to the earth, you who destroyed the nations of the world. For you said to yourself, ‘I will ascend to Heaven and set my throne above God’s stars. I will preside on the mountain of the gods far away in the north. I will climb to the highest heavens and be like the Most High.'” (Isa. 14:12-14).

Jesus’ attitude was completely different: “So Jesus said, ‘When you have lifted up the Son of Man on the Cross, then you will understand that I AM He. I do nothing on My own but say only what the Father taught Me. And the one who sent Me is with Me – He has not deserted Me. For I always do what pleases Him'” (John 8:28-29). In Numbers 21 God took the very thing that was the source of death and destruction, and by His power, transformed it into a source of life.

Much later, Jesus’ death on the Cross and resurrection became the ultimate source of life for us all.

God’s judgment on the snake in Genesis 3 was clear: “Then the Lord God said to the serpent, ‘Because you have done this, you are cursed more than all animals, domestic and wild. You will crawl on your belly, groveling in the dust as long as you live. And I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head, and you will strike his heel'” (Gen. 3:14-15).

God is busy exposing the works of this serpent (death, destruction and destabilization) in our times.

What I hear God saying on both a macro and personal level is this:

1. It’s time to lift up our eyes and fix our gaze on Jesus, our Source of life (John 3:14-16). Don’t allow yourself to be distracted by fear.

2. “Corona” means crown. There is, however, only One who wears the crown and that is Jesus Christ: “I am the Lord; that is My name! I will not give My glory to anyone else, nor share My praise with carved idols” (Isa. 42:8).

3. Globalization is not God’s idea. God is the Creator of nations (Gen. 11). He is the One who established languages, ethnicities and geographical borders. It was never His intention for one nation to dominate others as China is doing today. We have to start to rethink our global supply chains.

4. As nations and as individuals, we need to start to treasure our unique identities and callings in Christ. We cannot afford to give them away, or sell them, in the name of financial gain. For example, according to Arthur Burke, the Netherlands is a “giver” nation. This means that the concepts of stewardship and caring for others are very important to those of us from this nation.

We are called to release life-giving generational blessings into family lines. We are called to produce life-giving systems through holiness and intimacy with God.

The United States is a “prophet/ruler” nation where concepts like freedom and helping others to walk in their callings are important. Superstates in which nations relinquish their national identities are not God’s idea.

Shaking

God is shaking things at this time. He is the One behind the shaking. This is as true for us as individuals as it is for our nations: “When God spoke from Mount Sinai His voice shook the earth, but now He makes another promise: ‘Once again I will shake not only the earth but the heavens also.’ This means that all of creation will be shaken and removed, so that only unshakable things will remain” (Heb. 12:26-27).

The Greek word for “removed” is “metathesis.” This means “transfer: from one place to another.” However, it also means “change.” This is important because this shaking is not meant for our destruction (even though it hurts) but for our transformation.

In this season in which God has pressed the pause button on our economies and our lives, it is time to allow Him to work deeply in us, to root out all of our fears, pain and busyness. As we do, He will change and prepare us for the major positive moves of God that await.*

Larry Sparks: "British Isles/UK and Europe: It's Time to Reap What You Have Sown!" - The Elijah List

Larry Sparks: "British Isles/UK and Europe: It's Time to Reap What You Have Sown!"


 The Elijah List Apr 12, 2019

Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:
I sure enjoy reading the promises and plans of God over the nations of the earth.
As we read words like this, it should excite us for what God also wants to do in our own nation as well.
Larry Sparks shares this awesome prophecy he recently recevied over the British Isles/UK and Europe:
Even now, I prophesy, "British Isles and Europe, it's time for you to reap what you have sown into the nations of the earth!" What have you sown? I believe the Holy Spirit told me, "They have sown revival and reformation into the four corners of the earth."
Also included are specific prayer strategies from Larry that we can be praying into. Let's get behind this word over Europe and what God wants to do through His Church there! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

HR


Recently, the Spirit of the Lord said to me: "It's time for the UK and Europe to reap what they have sown."

At first glance, such a statement might produce some fear and trembling because of how we are religiously bent to think. Often, when we consider the concept of sowing and reaping, we think of how nations have sown bad things, and thus, should brace themselves for the judgment or wrath of God.
While God does have the right to judge nations, we need to also consider that the word "judgment" also includes "evaluation." And remember, our God is the One who doesn't want any people – or nations – to perish (see 2 Peter 3:9). I believe He is evaluating nations right now and He wants you to know that He has seen the seeds you've sown into the earth!
It's a Fullness of Time Moment!
Even now, I prophesy, "British Isles and Europe, it's time for you to reap what you have sown into the nations of the earth!" What have you sown? I believe the Holy Spirit told me, "They have sown revival and reformation into the four corners of the earth."
The King James Version of Galatians 6:7 uses the terminology of sowing and reaping. I like how the New Living Translation puts it: "...You will always harvest what you plant." Europe and UK: for many years, you have been planting and seeding Heaven's agenda as you have sown revival and reformation across the globe. God sees and God remembers.

Heaven has taken account and it's now a fullness of time moment where what you have sown, you will reap. (Photo via Pixabay)
I was born in the USA and I presently live in Texas. While I believe in a healthy love for one's homeland and nation, I also believe it's vital to express our appreciation to other nations for how their spiritual investments have impacted our nations. I write as a citizen of the United States right now, desiring to give honor to how your nations have touched the planet!
I'm grateful for the correspondence that Evan Roberts had with Intercessor Frank Bartleman in Los Angeles, as I have no doubt that what God was doing in Wales (Welsh Revival) in 1904 somehow jumped over the ocean and had a measurable impact on birthing the Azusa Street Revival of 1906. Wales, it's time for a fresh outpouring!
I'm grateful for the Smith sisters for praying a mighty outpouring of God's Spirit into the Hebrides Islands back in 1949 during the Lewis Awakening/Hebrides Revival. God sees Scotland, and I believe His movement in that nation is evidenced by the powerful prophetic community that is being raised up there!
I'm grateful for how Evangelist Steve Hill (Brownsville Revival) was touched by the power of God at Holy Trinity Brompton (in 1995) and that touch of God was powerfully released on Father's Day 1995 in Pensacola, FL.
England, it's time. There are an increasing number of churches that carry the fire of the Holy Spirit throughout the country. My friends with the Ramp (a youth and young adults ministry based in Hamilton, AL) have received a mandate to build a church in Manchester. The Lord says, "Look around! Consider the activity of My Spirit, both overt and covert, for this activity is evidence that I am moving and My movement will only increase."
Justified by Grace
I'm grateful for what God exported out of Germany through a priest named Martin Luther. Because of his impact, we recognize that through the Blood of Jesus we have direct access to God Himself. We are justified by grace through faith.
Can't You Talk Louder, God?
I'm grateful for the reformation culture exported out of Geneva, Switzerland under John Calvin, which gives us a powerful picture of a city under the influence of Kingdom ideas.
I think of George Jeffreys, the Welsh evangelist who operated in signs, wonders and miracles and founded Elim Pentecostal Church. It's interesting how this evangelist had a direct impact and influence on German-born evangelist, Reinhard Bonnke.
Time prevents me from going through revival and reformation history, person by person, recognizing the global, spiritual impact of European and British leaders on the nations of the earth. For all you've sown, it's time to reap. So, how do we respond to this prophetic word?
Here are Some Strategies to Pray Through and Act Upon:
• We agree with prophetic words through prayer and intercession. We do not agree with the secularism and darkness we see having influence on these nations. We don't pretend the problems aren't there in the name of faith; we simply pray based on what God is saying about Europe and the British Isles.

Don't pray the problem; pray the solution.
• We volunteer to be "sent ones," released into the harvest. By and large, this does not mean you are called to "minister" in a church setting; you are called to be the Church in whatever sphere of influence, job, trade, or educational institution you've been assigned to. The Lord is building His Church; it just looks a whole lot different than we think. You are filled with the Holy Spirit to go to the people and places in your sphere of influence and function as a prophetic problem-solver. For as you deliver solutions to the problems and crises that have stumped everyone else, you will be given platforms to reveal the "Source" of your supernatural solutions: the Holy Spirit, Christ in you! (Photo via Pexels)
• We make room for the Holy Spirit in our local church gatherings. It's impossible to see culture shift without a local church that maintains an open atmosphere to the supernatural movement of the Spirit. I prophesy, Europe and UK – may the fire of God burn strong in your churches! I even see some of the ancient landmarks of faith, the cathedrals and beautiful sanctuaries of old, coming alive again with the fire of God.
• I see intercessors and prophets becoming key voices in this season, as you will be receiving prayer strategies from Heaven that you are called to prophesy and decree over your cities, regions, and nations.
• The Spirit of the Lord will sovereignly remind you of past promises and prophecies for your cities and nations. These words were never meant to become "forgotten things," they are Heaven-sent strategies to help us effectively pray and war in the spirit for the destinies of our nations.
• I specifically see people praying over the ground in these nations, declaring: "Spring up, oh well!" (see Numbers 21:17). The Lord is saying, "My Bride will once again sing the 'song of the well'" in Europe and the British Islands." (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)
