Joey LeTourneau: "The Meek and Mighty Are Coming!" - THE ELIJAH LIST

Joey LeTourneau: "The Meek and Mighty Are Coming!"


THE ELIJAH LIST Oct 30, 2017

Steve Shultz     From the desk of Steve Shultz:
This might seem like an oxymoron statement: "The meek and mighty are coming." But that is exactly who God is releasing in this day...and I'd say this word by Joey LeTourneau is spot on!
So many of you will be able to relate to this article and I can just hear you saying even now, "That's me! He's talking about me!" AND yes, he is as Joey shares here:
These meek and mighty ones have not built of their own strength, but they have persevered, trusting God, to establish and finish promises that only He can—all the while living in humble dependence upon His Word, both written and fresh. It is literally what they have lived off of in the fields and caves while waiting for now.
Amen to that. To all you meek AND mighty ones...it's your time! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." (Matthew 5:5)
There are so many kings who have sat at the Lord's table, that much of the world and even the Church would not recognize them as kings. Just like Samuel called for David from the fields, God is calling a company of the meek and mighty to come forth now to take their inheritance of the earth, and release the Kingdom they've been humbly and powerfully trained in from the inside out. These kings are needed to arise and walk in their humble authority. The inheritance of these meek and mighty gives them access in the world to give it the best foot-washing creation has ever known outside of Jesus Himself!
Meek is not weakness. It is humility, dependence on a greater power, self-discipline, and a kind and controlled strength that has been reserved until now. Creation is waiting to recognize the voice of these meek and mighty ones asking, "When will they arise?"
"We can't despise these moments in each step we are following the Spirit which may feel so small and misunderstood."
These meek and mighty ones have not built of their own strength, but they have persevered, trusting God, to establish and finish promises that only He can—all the while living in humble dependence upon His Word, both written and fresh. It is literally what they have lived off of in the fields and caves while waiting for now.
Zerubbabel's Testimony
"This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: 'Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,' says the Lord of hosts." (Zechariah 4:6)
"Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain! And he shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of 'Grace, grace to it!'"(Zechariah 4:7)
"The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands shall also finish it." (Zechariah 4:9)
Zerubbabel was worn and weary. He had laid the foundation of his calling with the temple, but was about to give in to discouragement. In my Bible's notes, it highlights how Zerubbabel was to finish his calling without putting trust in the resources, ways, strength or numbers of man. Rather, God encourages him, and us, that the Spirit of God will accomplish this and that it will not go unfinished. Every mountain will be moved and divine grace is declared over it, all the grace necessary for completion. God was saying, "I will complete this through you not by your strength, but because you have learned to depend on Mine."
These meek and mighty are ones who have learned to be led by the Spirit, even when it's hard and doesn't make sense, and trusting God rather than results or man's ways. These tested ones are meek and mighty because they have learned to rejoice in their weakness, knowing that only His grace is sufficient enough to perfect what concerns them, because His strength is made most perfect in their weakness, and they are okay with that (2 Cor. 12:9). (Photo via freeimages)
Prophetic exhortation: Come forward you meek and mighty ones, and be who God has made you to be without reservation! God and all creation offer you this invitation. The world needs the uncompromising, humble authority of your voice, your heart and your service! Pastor Bill Johnson says it best: "Rule with the heart of a servant, serve with the heart of a king." Now is not the time to retreat because of opposition or discouragement. Now is the time to let the meekness in you, which the world has called weakness, become a most timely, redemptive strength.
Fathering Small Beginnings: The "Other" Joseph
"Do not despise the day of small beginnings." (Zechariah 4:10)
There are so many new beginnings that are like a shoot springing forth, out of the ground, across the earth. They are now small, but they are what you and all of creation have been waiting for.
ElijahList Prophetic Resources
The Son was born in Bethlehem, in a manger nonetheless. For the Father, this huge, hidden event was the moment His family's eternal hope had finally come to life. Jesus in a manger in Bethlehem was truly the smallest of beginnings, a modest family house to be born into to say the least. Yet it is also what God's whole house—and family—was built upon.
The Messiah had to be born in a manger before the government could be seen upon His shoulders, and it took a faithful few who trusted God's voice, beyond their own ways or understanding, to birth such to life. As you know, it's incredibly challenging to trust through the unseen, let alone when the unseen might not make a lot of earthly sense. When the unseen and misunderstood beginning God directs you toward is birthed in such a small way, well, it requires a lot of faith and patience for all involved to see it through.
"Come forward you meek and mighty ones, and be who God has made you to be without reservation!"
The manger brings the Father, and all of Heaven for that matter, so much joy! He has always worked through manger strategies. It's just that few that recognize the packaging that so many of God's greatest moves come hidden within. Most want to move into a fully renovated home rather than trust the Father through every step of His building process. Most don't want to start with a baby swaddled and surrounded in hay. The smells around Him didn't say "Christ" in human language, but all of creation knew that the Son they were waiting for had been born!
The "Other" Joseph
Can you imagine the responsibility of "fathering" Jesus during those early, intense years and decisions? We so often talk about Joseph of the Old Testament, and for good reason. But it's not often enough that we recognize the inner depths of surrender and strength it took to navigate the narrow path Joseph had to while "fathering" Jesus.
Joseph stepped beyond the fear of man to steward the unlikely and the misunderstood. Joseph led his young, uncommon family through the smallest beginning of impossible conception, through the most hidden baby shower or launch party the world has ever known—which happened in a manger.
He led them from one land to another, meeting with angels and listening to the Lord amid the pressures of murderous threats and the judgments of man. Joseph as a father to Yeshua was perhaps the greatest steward the world has ever known—not just through his faithful protection of Mary and Jesus, but the forward path he pioneered through his dependence on God. Joseph was a man, a husband, and a father who didn't feel the need to prove anything to the world. He was meek, mighty and surrendered to the vision of the tiniest seed that would one day become the Tree of Life for us all. Joseph is a "father" we must learn from and lead like in the season and path before us.
Your Small Beginning
Right now, many, many people have these manger-like situations being used to birth new, small beginnings that all of Heaven is hopeful for. Most of those small beginnings that those like you are carrying don't have fanfare or a big following, just a few shepherds and wise men sent your way occasionally for encouragement to help see it through. (Photo via Pixabay)
We can't despise these moments in each step we are following the Spirit which may feel so small and misunderstood. Like Joseph and Mary, we are merely stewarding through absolute surrender, faithful obedience, and a passion for the Lord that won't be compromised. What looks like a baby surrounded by hay in the wilderness might actually be a hope that carries the government of the Father's Kingdom family to the world.
"...And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6) (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Dutch Sheets: Satan Is About to Get a Migraine as This Revelation Unfolds - CHARISMA NEWS

When the church steps into its calling, there will be an explosion of God's power. (Pexels/Tookapic)
DUTCH SHEETS  CHARISMA NEWS
I don't think we have ever seen the expression of the government of God on planet Earth at the level we are about to see it. I am not just talking about the American church. In fact, we have some work to do. I'm talking about the church worldwide that will be the full expression of the kingdom of God. The full representation of the King will be released on this earth through the ekklesia. As this revelation unfolds, everything will change. We are about to move into an outpouring of Holy Spirit that, for the first time since the book of Acts, involves a full expression of the five-fold nature of Jesus—apostle, prophet, evangelist, pastor and teacher. All of these are about to be manifested through the church. I suspect that Satan has a migraine.
"And it will be that, afterwards, I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions. Even on the menservants and maidservants in those days I will pour out My Spirit" (Joel 2:28-29).
Give Him 15 minutes in prayer:
  • Shout and praise, because when you live a fully sold-out life in Christ, you are giving Satan a migraine!
  • Call forth the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers and pray that they would fully operate together for the sake of kingdom advancement!
  • Pray for the full power-filled expression of these leadership gifts! Ask Him to increase any manifestations of these grace gifts in you!
  • Pray for a John 16 unity in the ekklesia that couples the gifts with the power of love for one another and ka-boom! Power explosion coming to America and the earth!
A prayer you can pray:
God, I shout my praises to You, for You are worthy of them! Hallelujah! Thank You, Jesus! To God be the glory and honor and majesty! Kingdom of God, come! Cause the apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers to come forth out of their preparation places. It's time to work together in the beauty of unity, so the reality of Jesus is seen in the U.S. and all around the world! Increase my own anointing and perfectly fit the gifts you've given me into the plan You have for my area to see Jesus! Amen.
Today's decree:
I decree that God is pouring out an end-times anointing on His Church to prophesy, dream dreams, see visions and reap a harvest that will cause the enemy no end of angst!

"A New Sound and a New Season: A Word for the United States" by Nathan Shaw, Dunedin, New Zealand - THE ELIJAH LIST


September 2, 2017

"A New Sound and a New Season: A Word for the United States" - Nathan Shaw, Dunedin, New Zealand

From the Desk of Steve Shultz:
Steve ShultzThis word from Nathan Shaw of New Zealand is "power-packed" with revelation straight from the Throne of God. Many have been saying that we are getting a "new sound" and that's both over the Church and over our nation.

I always appreciate when prophetic voices from other nations write about the USA...as we know our great nation is on the hearts of many!

Nathan shares this powerful word:

As I began to call forth a new sound over the United States, a powerful spiritual authority came on me. I started doing something I had never done before. It was like I was reaching into President Trump's voice and pulling out the new sound. With authority, I kept reaching in and declaring, "I call forth the new sound! I call forth the new sound!" As we pray like this, the new sound will come forth with greater anointing, authority and clarity. We have authority to call forth a new sound over the President, the Congress, the Senate, the Supreme Court, the Media, and the Church.

God is reminding us over and over of our true priestly anointing and the authority we DO carry to bring great change!

"A New Sound and a New Season: A Word for the United States"

by Nathan Shaw, Dunedin, New Zealand


The political situation in the United States is full of contention and strife. The primary issue is not politics. There is a spiritual battle raging. The real issue is the destiny of a nation. Into this situation, God is calling His people to exercise priestly authority. Priests have spiritual authority (1 Peter 2:5, 9, Revelation 1:6, 5:10). In praying for the United States, God led me to do two things:

1. Call forth a new sound.
2. Take authority over the air waves.

The Bible talks about a new song (Psalm 33:3, 40:3, 96:1, 98:1, 144:9, 149:1, Isaiah 42:10, Revelation 5:9, 14:3). Interestingly, this new song is connected with a change in the atmosphere and a change in spiritual government. Israel's King David carried this new song. He was used by God to call forth a new sound over the nation of Israel. Contention and strife were replaced by proclamation and praise. The atmosphere over Israel changed dramatically. The destructive force of internal conflict that was tearing the nation apart was replaced by a national resolve to confront their true enemies.

As I began to call forth a new sound over the United States, a powerful spiritual authority came on me. I started doing something I had never done before. It was like I was reaching into President Trump's voice and pulling out the new sound. With authority, I kept reaching in and declaring, "I call forth the new sound! I call forth the new sound!" As we pray like this, the new sound will come forth with greater anointing, authority and clarity. We have authority to call forth a new sound over the President, the Congress, the Senate, the Supreme Court, the Media, and the Church.

Taking Authority Over The Air Waves

The second step God led me to do was to take authority over the air wavesSpiritual government is released through air waves. Air waves carry voices, sounds and attitudes. These voices, sounds and attitudes, become seeds that bring forth a harvest. Satan is called the prince of the authority (Greek exousia) of the air (Ephesians 2:2). But satan is not the only authority operating. There is also the authority of the new sound which carries both the government and the heart of God.

In the book of Ephesians, Paul highlights the real battle, "For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places" (Ephesians 6:12). The battlefield where this "wrestling" takes place is the air waves. That's why the weapon that combats demonic agendas is the sword of the Spirit, the Word of God, wielded with authority and anointing (Ephesians 6:17). God's Word carries His government and His heart.

When demonic agendas are clamoring for attention, they dominate the air waves and leave little room for anything else. We can take authority over the air waves so that they are cleared and set apart for godly agendas. We don't have to be intimidated by the contentious sounds that are coming from the media, the government, or the arts. The priestly authority God gives us is much greater.

A New Season

When Israel stepped into the land of Canaan, they entered into a new season. With this new season there was a different sound. While they wandered in the wilderness for forty years, things were relatively calm. They lived under a continual grace from God that released the basic provisions that they needed. They spent this time in barren and sparsely occupied regions. This meant that they caused little contention with other nations. When Israel stepped into Canaan, this changed. Now there was an anointing to possess the land. Israel moved from maintenance anointing to change agent anointing. That was a big shift. It caused an uproar. Change often does.

The United States is in a season of change. For some it can seem like God was in the relative calm and quiet of the previous season and not in the uproar and chaos of the new season. But realize that sometimes chaos is actually caused by God. It's time to move into the new season. Don't be intimidated by the chaos.
Step into your priestly authority and call forth God's purposes. Call forth the new sound. Take authority over the air waves. Foundations are shaking and will continue to shake. Old foundations will unravel and disintegrate. New foundations will come forth. God is setting things up for a great awakening. Great shaking will be followed by great awakening. It's gonna be huge!

David Lebo: "A Tsunami of My Spirit is About to Hit the USA!" - THE ELIJAH LIST

          

David Lebo: "A Tsunami of My Spirit is About to Hit the USA!"


THE ELIJAH LIST Jul 26, 2017

Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Bill Yount:
God is bringing His prophets out of the woods who have preached to trees long before they have preached in pulpits.
David Lebo is such a one who the trees have heard from. He's a trail blazer from the hills of West Virginia, who has been called to the nations.
I have known David for many years and we have ministered together. With fire in his bones, he ministers prophetically, seeing the gold in people, as the Holy Spirit burns away the wood, hay and stubble. From this message you will know that he has hung out in the woods with Jesus. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"A tsunami of My Spirit is about to hit the east coast of the United States of America and sweep across this great land—from the east to the south, moving across into the west, then north into Canada and down into Mexico. The entire Western Hemisphere will be affected by this revival and awakening," says the Lord God Almighty.
"O America, My beautiful: prepare for the impact. For a tsunami of My Spirit, is about to come upon you! Nothing can stop what I am about to do in this nation! Nothing devised by man nor any demon in Hell can stand against this move of God. Only a warning sound can be given!
"Shock waves will be felt throughout this country and around the world. Wave upon wave will come. It will be relentless. It will come from person to person, from church to church, from region to region, and from state to state. For I am breaking open the fountains of the great deep that lie within My people! (Photo via Unsplash)
"It's the power of God that they never knew was there. But I have had reserved for them all along! They will know who they are, Whose they are, and what is at their disposal. They are coming forth with My power and My anointing to take back what has been stolen from them. They will take new ground in My name fully weaponized by My Spirit," says the Lord.
Consuming Waters and a Mighty Shaking
"Nothing will be left untouched by these waters! Everything will be affected! With this tsunami will come a tremendous shaking in the land. I, the Lord God, I will shake everything. Every stone that has been laid by the hands of men will be torn down. Only those stones that are laid by the hand of God shall remain because, I am the Lord God—I am the Architect! I am the Builder!
"Return to your first love! America: I am calling you back! Back to the foundations of what this country was built upon—the truth of My Word."
"I am building My Church. I am building My Tabernacle. I am building My Temple in this day, and in this hour. My people, they are My Temple—individually and corporately—they make up the Bride of Christ. Individual temples making up a larger House of the living God.
"This shaking will be unlike any other shaking that has ever been felt in the earth or in the Body of Christ. Lines will be drawn. Sides will be taken. Some will reject, but more will come in."

Choose This Day Whom You Will Serve
The battle cry of this revival is: Choose this Day Whom You Will Serve! If God be God serve Him! If Baal be God serve him. It is a showdown of the ages. It's like Elijah on top of Mount Carmel. You cannot serve two masters. The days of sitting on the fence are over!
ElijahList Prophetic Resources
"I, the Lord God, I say unto you: Choose this day whom you will serve! If God be God serve Him. Take Him at His Word. Listen, believe, and do! Walk in obedience to whatever I am saying to you in this hour!
"My sheep know My voice; they hear My cry. They listen to My voice, and My voice alone. They speak the language of My Kingdom, and all other voices are a foreign language! This is critical to listen for My voice of instruction and whatever I may say to you—this is what I require.
"But to hear My voice, you must come into the 'Secret Place' of the Most High God—the Holy of Holies! You must come back to a 'Covenantal Relationship' with Me! Return to your first love!
America: I am calling you back! Back to the foundations of what this country was built upon—the truth of My Word. I have heard the cries of My Remnant," says the Lord, "the tide has shifted! I have heard from Heaven and I am sending down My answer." (Photo via Unsplash)
Blessing Follows the Shaking
"There will be a great shaking in the land, followed by tremendous blessing. Some may have thought it was too late for America, but I want you to know today that I have heard the cries of My Remnant. I have seen your tears in the night time hour and America: you will shine your light once again.
"America will be a 'lighthouse' to the nations once again! She will shine with the flames of My fire burning hot with the glory of God. She will be a 'Burning Bush' for Me, humanity on fire with My glory. Her 'trees' will not be consumed. America's trees will shine brightly with the glory of God! Hallelujah!
"They are coming forth with My power and My anointing to take back what has been stolen from them. They will take new ground in My name fully weaponized by My Spirit."
"She, once again, will affect nations for the Kingdom of God. And nations shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. America is rising once again. America is on the rise—if she listens to the Most High God. If she humbles herself before My mighty hand.
"'If My people who are called by My name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. Now My eyes will be open and My ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place.' (2 Chron. 7:14 NIV) (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Instead of Setting Captives Free, the Church Has Settled for This Type of Godless Liberty - RON ALLEN CHARISMA NEWS

Instead of Setting Captives Free, the Church Has Settled for This Type of Godless Liberty

RON ALLEN  charisma news
Just ten days after the Americans celebrate their Revolution, the French celebrate theirs, on Bastille Day, July 14.
The two revolutions could not have been more different. The Americans honored God in their Declaration of Independence. The French, on the other hand, adopted the atheistic, anti-Christian values of the French Enlightenment and set out to eradicate God from public life. Churches were closed, priests were persecuted and the calendar was remade without any Christian holidays. To replace the Virgin Mary, the revolutionary leaders invented the atheistic "Goddess of Liberty," which became the emblem of godless liberty.
The fruit of the revolutions was also very different. America became a beacon of hope for the world as it worked to make its dream of equality, and God-given rights become a reality. In France, the godless foundation of the revolution meant that all moral restraint on power evaporated, and the infamous Reign of Terror began. Neither life no liberty was safe, and even the revolutionary leaders were carried off one by one. Finally, order was restored, but all hope of liberty vanished under the iron-fisted rule of Napoleon Bonaparte. It turns out that godless liberty is no liberty at all.
Sad to say, the lesson of the French Revolution has been repeated over and over since then. The communist revolutions in Russia, China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Cuba and elsewhere produced massive death and eliminated freedom. The same holds true for the Nazis in Germany and the Fascists in Italy who, like Napoleon, led the whole world into war. The postcolonial socialists in Africa grabbed power after elections, giving rise to the famous statement of "One man, one vote, one time." The same process has also occurred in countries like Venezuela, Argentina and Ecuador where authoritarians have used the promise of godless liberty to subvert Democratic intuitions.
Even in America, our God-given liberties have been eroded by the proponents of godless liberty. Beginning in the 1960s, the government has banned God from our public schools, allowed the murder of the unborn, worked against Christian morality and now mandated same-sex marriage. At the same time, big government has increasingly limited the rights of Americans to exercise freedoms of religion, speech and property. The fruit of godless liberty in America has been fatherlessness, poverty, crime and a government that grows larger while the people grow poorer and smaller.
The success of godless liberty has come about because of failure by the church to preach the gospel of love and truth. Lying pastors condone sexual sin, even gay marriage, when they should be setting people free in the name of Christ. Churches have substituted failed social programs for the life- changing gospel of Christ. And the love of Christ is often hidden behind condemnation, political agendas and church division. America is on the same path which led the great nation of Germany downward from Martin Luther to Adolph Hitler.
Let us pray that the church will repent of its sins and return to the lifesaving work of spreading the gospel and the love of Christ. We must humble ourselves, come together and repent if our land is to be healed.
We invite you to join us in praying for repentance, church unity and healing of our land during the Hebrew repentance season of Teshuvah which begins with the great American eclipse on August 21, 2017. See our recently released book Teshuvah Eclipse on our website Teshuvah2017.com.
Let us also pray that the precious gift of godly liberty, and especially religious liberty, can overcome the evil of godless liberty.

[SIGN] Power for 2017 - Beyond Ourselves - Morris Ruddick

[SIGN] Power for 2017

Beyond Ourselves


By Morris Ruddick on Jul 12, 2017 01:46 am
The Body has been through an intense preparation for what is now on the horizon. In the last generation, the Church that began with a largely disjointed, localized, in-bred, myopic influence is in the struggle to emerge as far more mature, connected and mobilized. For those staying the course and paying the cost and not without serious challenges, it is now closing the gap to a time of making a transforming impact on society.

The Messianic passage in Isaiah 61 describes a dimension that operates beyond self. It encompasses a focus uniquely capturing God’s heart, with components that pierce the darkness with His Light. They combine to actuate this dimension and catalyst of “something more,” that ignites the power needed for societal change. Driven by the Spirit and operating within the spiritual veil, again beyond ourselves, this dynamic employs the authority and anointing of dominion to bring restoration and transformation. It is where the turning begins.

Prophetic Word: The Church Is About to Be Shocked Awake

There is a scientific phenomenon called hypnagogia: the state between wakefulness and sleep. For some people, this is entirely a physical experience, and they wake the next morning with no memories of what was flying through their thoughts just before slumber. 
For others, this state occurs while they are completely aware of the relationship between mind and body—the hypnagogic state of consciousness in those moments just before the mind begins to dream—and they can feel and sense things that defy our typical, physical, corporeal existence. 
Thoughts they wouldn't normally think and feelings they wouldn't normally feel are quickened within them as their body and mind coast to a different, almost transcendent, cognizance—a cognizance prized by the world's most celebrated artists since the dawn of time, as it is within those precious seconds the greatest of human creativity has been reported to unlock. Before I knew what it was called, I referred to it as "the falling."

I have learned over time that I was of the minority in my circle that experienced this consciousness often. For me, the phenomenon was frequently immediately followed by another I later learned was called the "hypnic jerk": an involuntary muscle spasm during or after hypnogogia that shocks a person to sudden and full awareness. read more
