"Shields Up! A Spirit of Violence Has Been Loosed!" Cindy Jacobs, THE ELIJAH LIST

"Shields Up! A Spirit of Violence Has Been Loosed!"
Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX

From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

It is NOT rare for our in-boxes to be filled with prophetic warnings about what the enemy is planning against the USA and frankly, the world.

Most of these do not get published on the Elijah List, simply because we are NOT like the secular news media with the philosophy of, "If it bleeds, it leads," as we often see the media publishing almost-exclusively bad news.

Having said that, when a well-known, high-level, mature prophet, who has made him or herself accountable to the Body of Christ, comes up with that kind of warning, it's time to REALLY LISTEN.

Such is the case with Cindy Jacobs today.

Today I am publishing an urgent call to prayer from Cindy Jacobs, titled: "Shields Up!" I won't be a spoiler and tell you what's in it, but on this day, you need to both read it and forward it to all your friends and pastors for a serious call to pray!

Cindy also mentions the ACPE or Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders. I am a member of this group as well, and was very encouraged to see Cindy double and triple check this word, among the many prophets, before she went public with it.

With that, you CAN still be encouraged as you read this.

P.S. Many newer or emerging prophets DO get it right when they call for emergency prayer. But it's important that when we publish a warning to the whole Body of Christ, they should know and understand that it's a credible prophet who is issuing this warning.

"Shields Up! A Spirit of Violence Has Been Loosed!"
Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX

Dear praying friends,

In a recent time of intercession, I heard some chilling words, "We're going to finish what we started." I had a sense that these were plans that terrorists were making against America.

I also heard the Holy Spirit say that a spirit of violence has been loosed in the earth. This has been confirmed in a number of ways. I mentioned this to members of the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE), which Mike and I convene. To a person, they agreed that they had heard something similar. Also, news reports are telling us of increased violence in some major cities in America, as well as in other countries.

Prayer Points:

• Washington DC: The Lord has specifically mentioned to me that we need to be praying against terrorist attacks in and around Washington, DC.

• Major US Cities: We will also want to cover other iconic targets in some of our major US cities.

• Iran: Holy Spirit highlighted Iran to me and the situation there, as well. I think the enemy would want to take advantage of the current conflict with Iran and escalate it.

This warning from the Lord is not to cause us fear! God is so good to warn us, so we have time to intercede and turn back the enemy's plans. He wants us to pray so things cannot escalate, but so that the violence will never happen.

WATCH NOW! Please click here or click the image below to hear the entire word of warning.

Shields up, Saints!

Cindy Jacobs Prophesies: You're a Winner!

7:00PM EDT 7/7/2019 CINDY JACOBS  CHARISMA NEWS

I was praying and asking the Lord what word He wanted to give to encourage you. So many discouraging things come at us, we need some encouragement. And this is what I hear: You are a winner. You're not a loser.

And the Lord would say, "So many things have beat against you that it's hurt your emotions. For many people, it has made you down. On the outside, you may look really good. You're going around saying, 'Praise the Lord' and all these phrases, but inside, you're hurting."

The Lord says, "I know you're hurting, but I am working on your situations. I am a behind-the-scenes God. Many times, you think I'm not doing anything; you think I don't care about you, but the truth is, I really, really love you."

And the Lord says, "The truth is these mountains that are before you are going to move. It is My desire to make you a success. Even as a good, good earthly father would always be looking to bless his family, so I'm always looking for ways to bless you. I'm always looking for ways to give to you. It is my nature to give. The first thing I did was give My Son for you. I'm working on all of your challenges. I'm working to help you financially. I'm working to help you emotionally.

The Lord would say, "When you cry out to Me, I hear you. When you ask, I listen. I listen to every one of your prayers. I listen to the prayers you pray for your family, your children. I listen to the prayers you pray for the lost. I listen to the prayers you pray for your health."

God bless you! This is the word: You're a winner, not a loser, and don't be discouraged.

"A Convergence of Dreams! Binding the Spirit of Delay"
Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX

February 5, 2019

From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

This latest word by Cindy Jacobs is a must read...and I mean you must read it NOW!

If you're stuck and want to move forword, now is the time.

Just read this awesome word of the Lord by Cindy Jacobs in which she shares:

The Lord says, "My children, didn't I tell you not to let your dreams die? Some of you are stuck because you have just said, 'Well, that dream is gone.' Didn't I say there was a convergence of dreams? Didn't I say that there were prayers that you have prayed that are all coming together?"

Get ready to be activated to move ahead in your dreams as the spirit of delay is broken off! 

By the way, if you haven't heard, we have a new TV show called "Elijah Streams" which airs on GOD TV, DIRECTV and Faith USA. We interview many of the prophetic voices featured right here on the Elijah List. You can watch our latest episodes On Demand too right here on: ELIJAHSTREAMS.com.

"A Convergence of Dreams! Binding the Spirit of Delay"
Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX

A Convergence of Dreams
The Lord says, "My children, didn't I tell you not to let your dreams die? Some of you are stuck because you have just said, 'Well, that dream is gone.' Didn't I say there was a convergence of dreams? Didn't I say that there were prayers that you have prayed that are all coming together?"

I feel an admonition from the Lord that many of you heard what He said, but you didn't really believe it. The Lord shows me that there are many people in the Body of Christ today that are heartsick. Your heart is so full of unbelief. You've gotten to a place where the spirit of unbelief has overcome you. In the name of Jesus, we bind and break the spirit of unbelief.
The Lord says, "There's nothing too hard for Me. If you stay stuck, then it will be because you did not apply My principles."

Binding the Spirit of Delay

I remember giving a word about binding the spirit of delay. I actually was on the phone the other day, waiting to get an answer from a credit card company. I was just fidgeting, feeling so tired of waiting. And it was like the Holy Spirit touched me on the shoulder and said, "You know, you have authority over this." So I bound that spirit of delay, and I'm telling you, that agent came on right away.

Another thing like that happened to me where I was delayed on a flight. We weren't taking off. We'd actually waited on the tarmac for an hour, and it was the same thing. The Lord goes, "Now look, there's a weather problem; you can take care of that. And there's a problem going on right now with delays. So why don't you just bind, take authority over the weather where you're going to fly, and bind the spirit of delay?"

I used those tools that God had given me, and so, what happened? Well, the pilot got on and said, "Oh, I want to tell you the weather patterns have changed. And we're not going to be delayed any longer; we will make up the time."

Advancing with the Kingdom of Light

Now I want to say to you – there's that spirit of delay. It's stopping your dreams; it's stopping this convergence. The Lord says, "I want you to be spiritually astute. I don't want you to just let life pass you by and assume this is a natural thing when we live in two kingdoms, the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of light. The kingdom of darkness wants to stop your dreams, stop you from advancing, and the Kingdom of light wants you to go forward; God's power wants you to go forward."

Father, we thank You, Lord, that we're going to accept and we're going to believe that nothing is impossible. There is a dream convergence going on, there is restitution going on, there is favor going on. Lord, we receive it, and we receive the spiritual intelligence, that spiritual quotient that we need to have, the "SQ's" of our life.

The Lord says, "You have emotional quotients, you have character quotients, but I want you to come up higher in the spirit realm and understand really what is happening around you."
If you will do that, you're going to see the promises of God begin to be answered over and over. Amen, God bless you!

"ACPE Word of the Lord for 2019" - Cindy Jacobs The Elijah List

It was an honor to be at the recent ACPE gathering (Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders ) with the Jacobs' and many others as we sought to hear God's voice together.

I'll keep this very short and let you get right to reading the latest ACPE word of the Lord for the new year.

"ACPE Word of the Lord for 2019"

Cindy Jacobs and the ACPE, Red Oak, TX

I want share with you what God has been saying for 2019, and I'm very excited about everything ahead.

This is a compilation of words sent to us from the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE), and many of the well-known prophets from 65 nations during the Global Prophetic Summit. As I was looking through everything, it's really amazing, but one thematic thing which excited me was that God's going to use women in a greater way!

Below is a summary of the prophetic words being released for 2019.

Supernatural Acceleration

This was a word the prophets received in 2018, but we believe it is extending into 2019 – extreme acceleration. The season of "suddenlies" will continue.

Women Rise Up

"We need to remember that there is joy set before us."

A common theme coming from prophets around the world is that God is going to use women in a greater way. They are going to take their place, embrace their right to preach, and be in ministry. Men and women should work side-by-side.

A keyword is multi-generational. Both men and women will work together across the generations.

Possessing the Gates of the Enemy

This word from last year proved to be very accurate. There were great advances made in many nations, even places known for religious persecution. Pastors and other leaders who had been imprisoned were released. Doors are opening with government leaders. Prophet after prophet is being given the opportunity to meet with their presidents, royals, and so on.

North Korea

We sensed a little warning – step it up in prayer for North Korea. The situation could flash again and cause some problems.

Joyful Increase

Even a blessing can cause stress. The season of suddenlies and acceleration is so important, but the Lord is really saying, "When the suddenlies come, be ready to stay in joy." (Photo via Unsplash)

Satan doesn't want us to have joy; he wants to steal joy. He wants to stir up situations in your life to make you feel that God isn't good, that you're not going to have multiplication or increase. It's about choices. You need to make a choice that you're not going to get robbed.

The birthing process really models this because, at the time, you've got the promise, the child's there, it's ready for delivery, but the most troubling time for a woman is during that birthing process. Then you have to really press through to the very thing, the increase, that brings such joy. When you're going through a joyful increase, many times you'll feel a stretching.

Year of Transition

2019 is a year of transition into the blessings, as we're moving toward 2020 (2 Chron. 20:20 – believe the prophets, and you will prosper and be blessed).

To build on the previous section, this is a year of birthing new things, of transitions. We need to remember that there is joy set before us. In the midst of birth, you have to remember this is going to be something you're going to rejoice about. But sometimes people get caught up in the transition and they think, "Well, this is just my life now." No – it's a transition. Don't lose sight of the promise.

This is true for a lot of you. God's been giving you dreams, visions, and a sense that you're to move forward in a certain way during this next season, but as you've begun trying to move forward, you're getting resistance. It's a time where we're going to have to learn and relearn and use the principles God's already shown us. See the end result and keep the end result before your eyes, so that you can be joyful, looking beyond the circumstances to what you know God has for you.

Culture Shifts

"'When the suddenlies come, be ready to stay in joy.'"

There will be a marriage of revival and reformation.

We're going to see nations embracing values, and many will shift from being goat nations to sheep nations (sheep nations are in line with God's promises; goat nations are not).

God is releasing a focus on evangelism. This is ultimately the reason prophets gather together and seek a word from the Lord, so people can be released to impact their nations.

God is creating miracles and releasing the game changers that will shift world governments. It will allow for God's government that has no end.

Creativity

We are moving into a season of amazing creativity. We are seated with Christ in heavenly places, and what does He do in heavenly places? He creates. He has never stopped being the creator – the same yesterday, today, and forever. Because we're made in His image, He wants to release in us an amazing amount of creativity.

Shakings & Upheavals

We do feel a warning – 2019 is going to have some shakings and upheavals.

There are going to be government upheavals. There are going to be some polarity. But God is going to cause you to get through it and get through it joyfully. (Photo via Unsplash)

Preparation, guidance, and discipline are necessary for developing maturity with any gift, and the prophetic gift is no exception. However, prophetic mentorship can be quite challenging – for the mentor and the student alike!

If you have an emerging prophetic gift, it is so important to be teachable and allow yourself to be mentored. There are important things to look for in a mentor and crucial steps you must understand in order to make that relationship truly effective. God is more interested in maturity and character than anointing, and mentorship is a vital part of seeing those things developed in you. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"It's a Time of 'Extreme Acceleration!' Launch Out into the Deep!"
Cindy Jacobs, Red Oak, TX

The Lord has been talking to us for a while about this concept of extreme acceleration and "suddenlies." I hear Him saying again, "Prepare for the time of acceleration."

The Lord says, "For many people, I bring a visitation of acceleration, but they are not ready to do what I have called them to do. Their mindset is to resist change. Their mindset is full of fear, and they're afraid when the season comes and begins to move fast. They want to put the brakes on, and they want to say, 'No, I want to think about this.'"

Time to Get Off the Mark

The Lord says, "There's a time to think and to pray, and there's a time to do and to take actions. I am anointing My people to be risk takers; I'm anointing My people to get off the mark."

Don't let fear paralyze you. Don't let depression paralyze you. Don't let the past depress you. Don't let the past keep you back. When the time comes, I see this picture I've seen in movies of the hero or the heroine when they have to jump on to a fast-moving train, or they have to jump on to a car from another car that's careening down a road. Well, the Lord says, "Jump!"

But What If You Win?

A lot of people say, "Well, what if I miss?" Well, what if you win? I believe that the Lord is saying this especially to a lot of entrepreneurs right now. Some of you, in fact, have been praying earnestly for a confirmation that you are supposed to make a move, and as long as you have peace in your heart about that, just go ahead and jump.

"Launching out into the deep" would be a Biblical reference we could use for this. The Lord says, "If you snooze, you lose!" Get ready for acceleration and be ready to move when the extreme comes.

Cindy Jacobs: The Lord Told Me This Is a Season of Suddenlies

10/7/2018 CINDY JACOBS  CHARISMA NEWS

he Lord has been giving me a great word, and many other prophets have received something similar: this is a time of acceleration, and this is a season of "suddenlies."

The Lord is saying, "Not only is it a time of acceleration, but I am taking you to a season of extreme acceleration. It is going to be fast when the 'suddenlies' come."

God is going to pull many threads together, and I want to remind you that just before your breakthrough—just before your season of extreme acceleration that releases your "suddenly" moment—Satan will attack with full force. Don't let it be a surprise to you. When the attack comes, don't lose it and say, "Oh, why doesn't God love me?"

It's a time to say, "Wow, if this is happening—all these attacks—I'm just about to have my breakthrough. I'm about to come to extreme acceleration. I'm about to come to my 'suddenly' moment."

Father, I thank You for this. We thank You, in the name of Jesus, that depression has to go, weariness has to go, loneliness has to go, harassments have to go.

Cindy Jacobs: Retirees, Listen! The Lord Says, 'This Is a Higher Season'

9/23/2018 CINDY JACOBS  CHARISMA NEWS

Hello! As I have been seeking the Lord for a word to encourage your heart, this is what I received: this is a higher season. There is such an anointing on those words: "a higher season."

Many people reach a place in their lives where they get stagnant. But the Lord would say to you, "I don't wish you to be stagnant. I want you to be ever advancing My kingdom. I want you to be ever advancing in your destiny. Some of My children reach a place of spiritual stagnation—you are not growing personally; you're not growing in your destiny; you're not moving toward a destiny. And you just say, 'Well, that's all there is."

The Lord is really speaking this to me very strongly, even for retirees. The Lord has given you a time of positioning to a new level. You are not to be stagnant, saying, "I'm going to retire and just do anything I want." Now I know that may not seem like good news to some of you. But the Lord says, "I want you to be productive. I have made you to be productive. And if you're not productive, you're gonna go down."

The Lord also shows me that this is even a higher season for little children. In past generations, not much was spiritually expected of children because they were just little kids. But the Lord says, "No, this is a higher season for children. It's a season of dreams and visions."

The Lord shows me that there is an acceleration, like a rocket booster. If you will allow the Holy Spirit to come, God wants to accelerate you to a new thing; there'll be a divine acceleration underneath you to cause you to go to this higher season.

Father, I thank You in the name of Jesus that we're not going to go backwards in our lives; we're not going to reach a point of stagnation where we don't advance because God has called us to advance. I pray for those who are in that place, even feeling discontent and saying, "But, Lord, if You would just show me what to do, I would do something."

The Lord says, "If you will take one step, if you'll volunteer, or take one step, and just do something in your life, I'm going to give you two steps and three steps and four steps."

I know some of you would say, "Well, that's not where I've been. That's not the height of the position where I've been or what I can do." But the Lord says, "This is a season where I would cause My people to volunteer in the day of power. If some of you will do that, look around. I'm going to take you to a higher season. When I come, I will say, 'Did you reach the higher season, or were you just content with a good life or the acceptable life, but not the perfect life in Me?' So reach out, because I want to give you the perfect life and a new season, a higher season."

God bless you.
