Phyllis Ford: "Word of the Lord for 2016 and for the Month of January - Part 2"


Jan 15, 2016

THE ELIJAH LIST
Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:
We've been receiving many awesome, prophetic words for the New Year...and they are quite longer than normal, since it's an overall scope of whole year. This is one such word by Phyllis Ford that we decided to break into two parts since it was quite lengthy.
We are in a new time of awakening as Phyllis shares here:
"So prepare your heart in this hour to receive this new planting. Allow the weeds of the past to be pulled up. Let My words become new life and strength to you now. Come away from all that has tried to taint and pollute your fields and receive a new refreshing. For now is a re-digging of wells, and the ground is being prepared and new seedlings are being planted. Great life shall spring forth in this hour for those who are hungry and are ready for this new time of awakening.
As in her Part 1 word, there is a lot to this article...and you may need to read it a couple of times to take it all in...as there are many prophetic nuggets in her word.
Hey! Now one last thing. The "What is God Saying for 2016?" conference has JUST ended and NOW YOU CAN ORDER THE CDs, DVDs OR MP3 DOWNLOAD.
Friends, this truly, truly, truly was the best conference yet and I've NEVER EVER heard so many positive words coming forth from God's prophets. Our speakers were: Chuck Pierce, Jane Hamon, Dutch Sheets, and Dr. Alveda King (niece to Martin Luther King, Jr).

Below is Part 2 to Phyllis Ford's Word of the Lord for 2016. To read Part 1 click here.
The following is a compilation of dreams, visions, and utterances I received from the Lord concerning the coming year 2016.
His Words: Your Dry Ground is About to Become Your Watered Garden with Rapid Growth and Harvest
We are seeing everything that has built up in 2015 come to a complete tipping point. For the bowls of prayer, petitions, and decrees have come before the Lord and the Lord is about to move on behalf of His people. The events, even the tests and trials that were experienced during this phase, have been the ground for that which the Lord is establishing now.
The Lord is saying, "For now the dry ground is about to become your watered garden. Your proving ground is about to become your breeding ground. For I am clearing the ground and I am cleansing the ground. I am planting in this season of your life, and you shall see it and you will taste its harvest. For I am rebuilding upon you in this hour, so that you may walk in My abundant life. (Photo via Pixabay)
"So prepare your heart in this hour to receive this new planting. Allow the weeds of the past to be pulled up. Let My words become new life and strength to you now. Come away from all that has tried to taint and pollute your fields and receive a new refreshing. 
For now is a re-digging of wells, and the ground is being prepared and new seedlings are being planted. Great life shall spring forth in this hour for those who are hungry and are ready for this new time of awakening.
"Now there will be a turning over of the soil and the seeds will be planted deep within. There will be great growth, and behold the bumper crop season will take place. As quickly as it is planted, so shall it also come forth. 
The harvest will be like nothing you have seen in times past. For this is a part of the accelerated course that has come upon the land, and there will be rapid growth in this season."
The Lord let me know that 2016 is a time where we will not be overlooked. For even in this month there will be opportunity to grasp, to redeem time, and to move forward onto new ground. If we allow this window of time to go by, playing last year's games, we will watch everyone quickly pass us by and we will wonder where the time went. That which some of us tried to cover and hide will be exposed before all.
God then gave me key words, and they were as follows. These are not new concepts, but the emphasis on these things will begin in January and continue to carry forth throughout the year.
Kingdom Convergence
This will be a joining of giftings, callings, and anointings that the Lord will gather in this hour for optimum results. It will be about Kingdom-minded people joining together to bring about radical change. We will see a cross-pollination of people from various nationalities, regions, and background. These will be a fierce group of Kingdom people who will be fearless and focused on getting the job done. (Photo via Pixabay)
There will be a converging within the Church structure and groups specializing in particular areas for the purpose of having a greater impact and influence upon Kingdom expansion and growth. Many streams will gather and begin to flow together. There will be a blending as God's people as they unify to do greater works.
Tipping Point
Watch how when the efforts of many move together a tsunami wave of momentum is created, having much impact. It will begin in January and go throughout the year. You will see people connecting people, purpose, time, and energy along with great moves of God's glory touching others on new levels. There will be those who will be carriers of the glory realm coming together.
The bowls of the prayers of the saints will be tipped over, taking others into greater realms of prayer movements. Prophetic voices, priestly sounds of worship, and apostolic words of sound doctrine will purge and purify those coming out of deceptions, bringing them into great deliverance.
Breaking Ground
I had a vision of ground-breaking ceremonies (which included ribbon cuttings). The Lord said that all the Heavens would rejoice over the new ground breaking forth in the spirit realm. (Photo via Pixabay)
There is a fresh new boldness coming upon the land that is likened unto when Caleb went forth to take new ground. There will be new, fresh revelation in the area of spiritual warfare that will break new ground as well. Old battles will be finally be dealt with and old generational curses will be broken with fresh new victories.
Beautiful People
I had a dream where I saw a group of people arising out of the ashes of the pain of the past and they were coming forth as lights. There was such a beauty upon their countenance. I inquired of the Lord, and a few days later He said, "I am taking a people who have come out of the ugliness of experiences and bringing them forth as a beautiful people. For those who will come out of drug addiction, alcoholism, mental oppression, and emotional struggles will be made whole and new. They will see things in a new way and in a new light. For their past will be overcome by My love towards them."
I saw among them young people who came in groups, and they looked like clusters of light. I saw some of which were previously looked upon as dangerous, but have since been changed by the presence of the Lord, and they were led by other saints who have had similar experiences.
Reformation Winds & Heavenly Centrifuge
I had a vision of a whirlwind. It turned in a circular motion, and as it turned in great speed, the furniture in the room was literally hurled around. All of a sudden it stopped, and once it did, everything was laid in order. The Lord said He was about to set things in order, ushering in an apostolic and prophetic order that will change churches and even house meetings.(Photo via Pixabay)
People will be gathering together with a hunger for His presence and hearts crying out for transformation, and it will take place in the house both apostolically and prophetically. In many ways God will see to it that things fall into their proper place.
Wealthy Place
There will be a transition for those who have been in heavenly places with the Lord into a prepared place of abundance. This abundance will produce wealth vehicles that will come forth to strengthen and catapult the Kingdom work into a sound place emotionally, financially, physically, and mentally. A soundness and restoration will begin to come upon the people of God. We will see transfers of wealth and finances that have been previously promised and now will be currently manifested in the lives of God's people.
Exposures of Wickedness
At the very onset of this New Year we will see an uncovering of wickedness. The Lord will uproot and uncover the lies of the enemy. Infiltration and hidden alliances will be uncovered from within the government and different organizations. From CEOs to presidential candidates with strange bedfellows, all will be uncovered due to their refusal to change. The crossover into 2016 will hold heavy consequences, and many who have been warned will see that God is not playing with them. (Photo via Pixabay)

Other Prophetic Insights Concerning 2016: Uprooting the Spirit of Folly & Seduction
Another issue the Lord began to speak to me about is the spirit of folly and how it relates to the spirit of seduction. Many times we think that the opposite of wisdom is ignorance. We all know that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. That word fear also translates to reverence and respect for the things of God. Well, our refusal to follow God, respect God, or acknowledge God is a fool's response. A fool says in his heart there is no God. The opposite of wisdom is not ignorance, but folly.
Folly develops into mockery, founded on a disrespect and disregard for the things of God. It is an end-time enemy which is tied into the spirit of rebellion and seduction. If Psalms states that a fool says in his heart that there is no God, we must realize that the spirit of seduction entices us to turn away from God, and the spirit of folly tells us to embrace a path without Him.
When Paul talks to the Galatians, he says, "Galatians, who has bewitched you?" because they did not walk in Abraham's faith. The word bewitched meant beguiled, to seduce, or entice. The desire for ungodly things will lure the hearts of men in other things and move them away from the things of God – away from their faith and into a mindset of unbelief where we have given into desires as if God does not exist or the fear of God is not in us.
This lure is not just a sexual lure; it includes ungodly mammon, addictions, and tangible obsessions. We cannot serve two masters. We cannot serve the things of the world and the things of God. We must be careful, for the things that we allow ourselves to possess can, in the presence of these unchecked desires, take possession of us.
This is why Moses and Elijah stood before the people telling them to make choices. When the children of Israel were taken into captivity, they were first taken in their hearts before they were physically taken away. This is why we must pursue Christ Jesus, making Him our heart's desire.     
(Photo by Linda Harris-Iorio "The Lamb Returns as a Lion"via elijahshopper.com)
So, we have to guard our hearts and minds against the works of the flesh. We must not allow ourselves to become overly focused upon the things of the flesh, so that even small things will not become idols and graven images that have been placed above the things of God. Be ready as we approach an age that looks to the earthly satisfactions rather than godly answers to everyday dilemmas.
The Lord's Strategy for Uprooting the "Lies" of the Enemy
(The following is a revelation that, when studied, will only further reveal itself.)
The Lord revealed a strategy in prayer using a combination of Scriptures that tie together as one. It was concerning His unveiling plan to uproot "lies." He began by stating that the spirit of pride operates as the spirit of Leviathan, which is described as twisted, misleading, or crooked (or making crooked the circumstances of a matter).
Leviathan is also the author of many misunderstandings. Isaiah 27 says that God will pierce Leviathan with a sword (God's revelation of His Word). It then it goes on to say to sing about the fruitful vineyard, that He watches over it. Here in this prophetic word, the planting of truth and understanding a sonship identity uproots the lies of the enemy. Then it goes on to unveil the Scripture of Job 41, which says a hook will be used to draw out this Leviathan ("spirit of lies").
The Lord showed me in a dream that the hook was a connection to a season in time. In 5776, the Hebrew letter vav, which is said to represent the number 6, means to hook, to fasten, or to stake into the ground. 
We have now entered the time when the new Hebrew year unlocked and uncovered God's plan to destroy that spirit.
And so, we move on to the Scripture of Isaiah 22, which unveils the opening of a door that no man can shut. That door takes us to a time prepared in God when this enemy will be overturned. So, we see in that same chapter a man named Shebna (which represents pride) who is taken out of position and replaced by the fastening of another who has the heart of a loving father, named Eliakim. 
When you line up these Scriptures, we see a prideful spirit of Leviathan who is destroyed by a revelation, followed by a worship (a new sound), a replanting of truth, unlocked in time, and the leadership representing the Father's love replacing the evil that was overthrown.
Isaiah 27:1-3 (NLT) In that day the Lord will take His terrible, swift sword and punish Leviathan, the swiftly moving serpent, the coiling, writhing serpent. He will kill the dragon of the sea. "In that day, sing about the fruitful vineyard. I, the Lord, will watch over it, watering it carefully. Day and night I will watch so no one can harm it." (Photo via Pixabay)
Job 41:1-3 (KJV) Canst thou draw out leviathan with an hook? Or his tongue with a cord which thou lettest down? Canst thou put an hook into his nose? Or bore his jaw through with a thorn? Will he make many supplications unto thee? Will he speak soft words unto thee?
Isaiah 22:20-25 (KJV) "And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call My servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah: And I will clothe him with thy robe, and strengthen him with thy girdle, and I will commit thy government into his hand: and he shall be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah. And the key of the house of David will I lay upon his shoulder; so he shall open, and none shall shut; and he shall shut, and none shall open. 
And I will fasten him as a nail in a sure place; and he shall be for a glorious throne to his father's house. And they shall hang upon him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, all vessels of small quantity, from the vessels of cups, even to all the vessels of flagons. In that day," saith the Lord of hosts, "shall the nail that is fastened in the sure place be removed, and be cut down, and fall; and the burden that was upon it shall be cut off": for the Lord hath spoken it.
Great Grace
We all know that where sin doth abound, grace also abounds. The Father's heart and those He will raise up in this hour with great compassion will be there to catch many in a new net of love and forgiveness. This will mark a season of leadership with great humility that will, through love, literally usher a people into the gates of the Kingdom like never before.
Weighty Gates
As we enter this new chapter of righteousness, we cross a line of demarcation. This opens a weighty gate where the weightier matters are accessed and balanced with God's divine timing for fulfillment in order. A great wisdom will be unlocked, and this wisdom will lead and direct us through uncharted waters of which we have never traveled.
We will know what to do and how to do it during this time. Some didn't have the grace to cross over into 2016, and we must be grateful. We must also understand that we have been given access. The access we have been given carries with it a wisdom. Wisdom in this hour will be a principal thing, and the fear of the Lord will make its mark at the beginning of this New Year.
His Words: You Shall be Changed Under An Umbrella of My Glory
"For My people shall receive great healing and deliverance under the umbrella of My glory. For my glory shall fall and My people shall hear the words that I am speaking to them. They shall hear individually and collectively as the words are released under that canopy of My anointing. They will hear My words of healing and cleansing. Major yokes shall be broken. (Photo via Pixabay)
"The people shall be transformed. For this is the time that My people shall be set free. For no longer will they come under the umbrella of My glory, My anointing, or My power and leave the same. I shall loose a lasting change and transformation upon them like a fire. For this is the hour of deliverance, and My people will come out of darkness and walk in My light. For it will be My power on the people, and My majesty will extend upon them."

"Word of the Lord for 2016 and for the Month of January - Part 1" Phyllis Ford, Arlington, TX - THE ELIJAH LIST


The following is a compilation of dreams, visions, and utterances I received from the Lord concerning the coming year 2016.
One of the things that the Lord revealed to me were words that would be frequently used in 2016. These words will have great significance in the media, in Biblical teaching, and in other arenas where people will be open to hear and understand. 
The two words that will be repeated over and over throughout the year will be "LOVE" and "LIES." I had a significant vision while in prayer; in it, the Lord said that people would either focus on the foundation of His truth, which is His love, or focus on the lies of the enemy. The choice will be ours. (Photo via Pixabay/Tawny Nelson)
The Lord showed me that in this season "lies" will be exposed. He revealed to me a divine strategy that will come in the release of revelation. Along with that revelation will come a sound from Heaven through praise and worship. This sound will carry another level of anointing to tear down and destroy the enemy's resistance by the release of strong apostolic prayer.
Prophetic Insights Coming Out of 2015 and Entering into 2016
The word for the year of 2015 was "rest," but the word for the year 2016 is "love." We are coming out of the season of rest in the Lord, but with the knowledge gained in the resting place.
This rest displayed our ability to yield to the presence of God, trusting that He was in control of our lives in 2015. We watched and observed the Lord move and work in our lives, while waiting and resting in Him. In that time, He prepared us for the next journey. The rest we were to enter into was the kind where we relinquish our ability to fix, manage, and control things. Not all of us rested in the time of rest.
Yielding during the time of rest was key for us to learn. 
If we didn't properly yield in 2015, we will have to yield all the more in January 2016. For those that fought the rest, they must now press for what they missed during the time of rest. Despite it all, a window of redemption is coming in January 2016, and those that fell out of sync with last year's rest can reconnect and push forward, not missing a step – this time allowing the Spirit of God to move unencumbered on their behalves in every facet of life. We will find that yielding has everything to do with humbling ourselves and having a teachable spirit.
As we walk through this year where the key word concerning 2016 is love, we have to look at a few things to come into a full understanding. 
We need to look at what the ministry of reconciliation truly is about. We must also look at the Father's love and consistently walk in mercy and forgiveness toward us and others. (Photo via Pixabay)
Along with this truth we also see how the blessings of the Lord operate in us and for us while others are touched, healed, and receive a greater dimension of His grace. These truths are beneficial, and as a result we also understand how to forgive and release others and speak the healing words of blessings upon their lives. As a result, they will begin to bloom and prosper in this new place of restoration.
The fullness of love doesn't just forgive but adds another dimension, which includes the impartation of God's breath upon one to build and create. What is potentially present now comes just as a flower transforms from a seed, and it grows, taking on form and becoming something beautiful according to the origin of the intent from which it was created.
There is a prophetic dimension that calls the sons and daughters into alignment in the earth. We will see this grow and unfold more in 2016.
We will become a part of that process as we continue to see ourselves as we look more and more like the Father. The image that has now come forth looks less like the flesh and begins to mirror Him in the Spirit.
This transformation is occurring as we come to grips with that which we must conform to in order to be transformed. The conforming process means that we walk in a total acceptance to what we are to be by keeping our eyes upon Him and not upon us. His Word is very powerful, and so is the way we see Him. 
The more we acclimate ourselves to who He is and what His ways are, the further we progress in that transformation.
We must seek to know Him so that we are able to understand the spiritual aspects of ourselves in a new and better way. We then lay hold to who He is and who we are so that the transformation process can begin to bring forth harvest.
His Words: Lies Versus Love
"I will expose the lies of the enemy in the government and in the Church. Many lies will be uncovered in this hour, as they have had a deep impact on the hearts and the minds of the people. 
In this time you will see an uprooting of lies. You will hear a repetition of this word (LIES), as this will be a part of what I am doing in 2016. 
For during these next two years, there will be uncovering of previous back door deals, alignments with countries, even ungodly agreements with individuals that will be looked upon as damaging to the very core issue of your nation.
"For you are in a season where many nations are literally standing at a crossroad. There has been a descending of morals and values that were once founded in Me. Now the foundation that has been built up by men is crumbling at its core. (Photo via Victor Vizu/Wikipedia)
"But know that in the very midst of this, I shall raise up a people who are not afraid and have been through some of the hardest struggles: Overcomers, for they will lead many into the light in the midst of a descending darkness. 

It is unfortunate that many major nations have fallen into the hands of unscrupulous men.
"But My people who have become rooted in My Word and resolved in the secret place of prayer will carry a powerful overcoming anointing to withstand and uproot the lies of the evil one. For this is a time of re-planting: a re-planting of My words, My strength, and the truth that will refuse to dwell in the midst of the lies. For the lies will be uprooted, and the ground will be cleared.
"The ground of peoples' hearts, the ground of peoples' minds, and the ground of peoples' spirits will be cleansed. The land will be cleansed with My love, mercy, and purity of purpose that will be planted into the ground. It will purge and uproot that which was sown by the enemy. 
This is a time and an hour for a great cleansing to take place: unto the people, unto the land, and unto the Church. This cleansing will cause a re-turning and a changing; and in that turning and that changing, My people will be delivered, healed, and prepared."

ElijahList Prophetic Resources
The Process of Restoration
"There will be a restoration, a return to the place of original intent, and a return back to ground that needs to be taken in the realm of the spirit. There will be a return back to those things that I have called My people to accomplish. I will work generationally, and I will take My people into a deeper depth of the anointing and into the power of My grace in My love. For this will be a part of that which I have placed upon them that they may grow. In this time of planting, do not feel that the planting is to destroy you, but the planting is to restore you.
"I will even take this season of restoration and will unveil the seedlings within the plant of its origin, and you will see My purpose purify the hearts and minds of My people. 
They will become ready, they will come forth, and they will move forth to do the things that I have called them to do in this season. Then you will understand the re-digging of the wells and the replanting of My Word, as it called to take root and bear fruit as My plan becomes activated in this hour. (Photo via Pixabay)
"Know that the other four-letter word that you hear will be 'love.' For I am restoring love in My house for the basis and the foundation of all things. 
This love will be rooted, grounded, and planted in those who represent Me. Many have said that this nation is over and that there is nothing more that can be done, but I will do great and mighty things. For I will work through love, and My love will draw many into the Kingdom. My love will heal, My love will restore, and My love will purify hearts. It will lead and guide many of those that are lost and crying out in this hour."
Love Will Carry a New Sound in the Earth
"For they will hear the sound of love and the melodies from Heaven that will arouse and awaken them in this night season. The pain of the past will be washed away by the sound that will echo from the Heavens to this earth. The earth shall quake from the sounds heard from the Heavens and will respond with gladness of the re-birthing that I will do in this time. 
So, open your hearts and open your ears that you may hear what I am saying to you now. For I will directly speak into your lives. And answers, solutions, and resolve will come with the sounding of My voice as I speak to you during this night season.
"Listen and hear, for I speak to you with words of wisdom and truth that will fill you with great light. You will connect with and understand what is being said. You will move forth in the land, for My love will carry a sound. It will carry an anointing, a glory, and a grace that many will hear and heed the call. For with loving kindness I have drawn you in. For now My love will cover and restore so many who are wounded and battle-weary. Even those who have given up."
Understanding the Power of Choice
"So I say this day you must make a choice: Will you allow the lies of the enemy to rule your life? Or will you allow the love that I have placed upon you, the everlasting love, a love that will never die, and a love that will never end to work upon your life? For if you do, you will never be the same. So, allow this love to heal you and allow yourself to be yielded to that place of peace called love. 
I will fill you and restore you with fresh oil and the new wine of My Spirit. Remember, love will be a buzz word that you will hear as I whisper peace into your life and joy into your soul.
"My people, I say, you must decide! For in this hour you will be either motivated by love to reconcile others with hearts of forgiveness, mercy, and compassion, or you will allow the lies of the enemy that bring forth hatred, prejudice, evil, bitterness, and unforgiveness to overshadow your soul. (Photo via alex yosifov/Flickr)
"There is a breeding ground from that which will come from an evil root. Much has occurred because they relied upon their own strength, upon their own abilities, and upon their own mind to settle the problems of the day. But I say to you, return back to My Word. If you study My Word, live in My Word, and walk in My Word, you will see I am a redeemer of people with a love that is able to destroy that which was broken and breathe into it new life."
I Will Raise Up New Voices: Hollywood and Even Comedians
"I will raise up mouthpieces in the media and Hollywood. For I will speak through them and through the writers of Hollywood productions and comedic writers. I will move, change, and even influence a group of people, for I will write through them and speak through them, and My people will listen from near and far. 
I will touch a people who have not been touched or even moved, and they will be moved by the testimonies that I will tell through those lives.
"I will speak to a people where there has been mocking, even curses that came from those lips, and I will cause My blessings to spring forth out of those same mouths. For I have a redemptive purpose, and I will redeem that which I desire to redeem. 
I will bring forth that which I desire to bring forth, for I am their healing and saving God, and I shall change the words of men. I shall speak, and they shall harken unto My voice, and I shall turn their hearts and change their minds, change their behavior, and change their lives.
"For I will call them forth to be mouthpieces in the hour when none would ever suspect it. I will use them as I pour forth My Spirit upon all flesh – and even the flesh of them who have turned their backs on Me. For did I not do it as Saul became Paul? So shall I do it now, and I shall bring it to pass.
"In that hour, it will happen to those whom I will prepare. 
Know that I am going to change Hollywood. 
I am going to change voices, and even through comedic voices shall I change lives. For I shall transform their lives and remove the dross off of them. I shall put on them new garments. I shall turn their ears and their mouths. 
For they will speak My words; they will bring forth joy not folly, not mockery, and not those things which shall harm. I shall make them new. I shall mend hearts and minds," says the Spirit of God. "I have held them for this season, and that which mocked and scorned will speak forth My blessings and My joy. And the joy of salvation shall be upon My people, and they shall be healed and rejoice." (Photo via Pixabay)
French Canada: People & Region
"I speak to the French Canadian regions and say, 'Rise up, O Canada! Rise up, O Canada!' 
I shall take this people and use them, making them sharp threshing harvest instruments having teeth. They shall thresh and bring down great mountains; they shall thresh through great hindrances; and they shall break through and become harvest instruments in 2016.
"Watch the month of September. For in that ninth month, I shall do great and mighty things. I shall do such great things that people will look upon that region and will say, 'Look at what has happened in that region!' Look at what is stirring, look at what is coming, look at what is ahead, and look at what has been established.
"Prepare yourselves through prayer and fasting. Prepare for visitation. For I shall speak to the intercessors of that region and say, 'Rise up, O Canada, for I call you unto Me.' 
It will be known as a place of revival, and revival fire will burn there. For I will fire baptize those who yield themselves to Me, and they will come forth. The Jews out of those regions will come forth and Aliyah. For they will return to their land and they will rejoice, for they will be going home. What you will see in this region will spread over My land and cross over the waters, for the move of My power has begun." (Photo via Pixabay)

Believers, Embrace the Fire - LANA VAWSER CHARISMA NEWS

Believers, get ready to embrace the fire.


Believers, get ready to embrace the fire. (Lightstock )


Believers, Embrace the Fire


I saw angels being released from the throne of God, and they were being carried on the Word of the Lord and the winds of the Spirit. I saw them flying toward the people of God who were crying out in their prayer closets for more of Him. 
As these angelic hosts were flying toward the people of God and they were singing with the Spirit. They were singing, "It is time for overflow; it is time for glorious overflow."
As they flew, I saw they were holding huge buckets and in these buckets was the most glorious fire I have ever seen. Yet the fire was self-sustaining and the buckets remained untouched. They were carrying the fire of God to the earth. There was such life in this fire, just looking at it I felt completely undone by His love and presence. I was filled with the fear of God in such an intense way. A reverent awe of His nature and holiness covered me. 
These angelic hosts were moving swiftly on the winds (Heb. 1:7) toward the people of God. As they arrived before those who were crying out to Him for more of Him, tears falling, I saw these angelic hosts begin to tip the buckets and the fire of God began to fall. The fire of God and the winds of the Spirit moved in total beautiful unison. The people of God fell on their face in reverent awe of Him. A new wave of the fear of God was being released like a river through the body of Christ as the people of God met that revelation as Moses did, that they were on holy ground. 
All the "wrong places" (exposing of issues and sins of the heart, strongholds, oppression, lies) began to be burnt away in the fire of His love. An intense heart purification took place, and the wind of the Spirit brought a refreshing and greater empowerment into the lives of God's people. 
Suddenly I heard the Lord speak and the angelic hosts echoed what He spoke. "Now let the right places be ignited." Suddenly, hunger and love for Him exploded. Giftings were set on fire with increase and prayers and promises of His heart that looked like dry bones suddenly came to life. 
His words boomed: "Step into the rhythm of overflow." He was leading His people deeper into the realms of living in the overflow of abundant life, of sensitivity and response to His Spirit and a place of richness in intimacy with Him in new depths. 
As the people of God stepped into this rhythm of overflow, they began to move in the power of the Spirit in their lives on a grander scale. I then saw flames of fire being released from heaven that came and rested in their hearts and above them. Those who stepped in received greater impartation of carrying His fire for revival. It was an awakening to the truth that they are revival, and wherever they go, the fire of God is within and upon them to be released and see revival break out.
The positioning of our hearts and lives is at a critical point in the body of Christ right now. The encounters with the fire of God are and will be on a scale we have never experienced before.
Embrace the fire! Allow anything not built on Him and in Him, anything that's not aligned with all He has for you and how He sees you, to be burnt away in the fire of His love. A deeper purification process is taking place, a greater extension, leading you deeper into realms of freedom and the fear of the Lord. Get ready to shake in reverent awe like never before as the glorious fire of His love consumes and releases. 
All the wrong places are being burnt away and all the right places ignited. Get ready for an impartation of His fire that meets the hunger in your heart, releasing you into new, radical depths of love and lovesick abandonment to Him that will usher you into the greatest breakthrough of your life. You will be used by Him in a whole new way in the greatest outpouring of the Spirit that we have yet seen on planet earth. 
Get ready to burn. An army of burning lovers is arising.

"Now it came to pass on a certain day, that He went into a ship with His disciples: and He said unto them, Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth." 
(Luke 8:22)
 
I love the way this verse begins, "Now it came to pass..." It is important to note that the first word is NOW. 

When I read that I know that this is a NOW word for us! It is a proceeding Word, however it comes to PASS, it does not come to stay, it denotes movement. Religion seems bent on taking a now/ proceeding Word and embalming it, memorializing it and propping it up way past its' usefulness. 

Remember, Father is in the NOW. One of His redemptive Names is Jehovah Shamah, meaning "The Lord, The Ever Present." That does not just mean that He is always present (which He is) it also means that He lives in the present.   He lives in an eternal "now" outside of time. 

"On a certain day..." This was not just ANY day, this was a certain day. I believe that this CERTAIN Day we are reading of is a spiritual picture of where the Church is now, and that there is a spiritual principle we can glean from. You see, our ultimate destiny is not determined by our natural circumstances! In fact, many times our natural circumstances are at odds with our ultimate destiny. That is because Father calls us to something much higher than our natural capabilities requiring us to overcome our natural circumstances. 

A Certain Day 

Contrary to everything we hear from so many sources, I prophesy to you that we are NOT in a day of uncertainty! We are in a CERTAIN Day that Father has had planned from the beginning of time. Are these troubled times?  Most certainly they are troubled times, but they are filled with certainty and Father's purpose. 

Our verse goes on to say, "He went into a SHIP with His disciples..." I believe that this is a CERTAIN Day because He is IN the ship with His disciples. 

What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?  This ship is a WorSHIP! "But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel." (Psalms 22:3) Many churches have a similar paradigm of worship, and it is based upon the belief that praise and worship in a congregational setting serves as a plow to break up the ground of the peoples' hearts in preparation for the Seed of the Word that will be delivered in a message. 

However, in our local fellowship, I believe that we are not there to "plow" hearts, although that can happen in a corporate gathering. If that is what people want, there are other churches that are better suited for that, and I don't say that to belittle other churches...it is just that is not our calling. 

The Frequency of Heaven 

I believe that we are there to tap into, to access the frequency of the worship that is already happening in the heavenlies, resonate that worship and bring it into the earthly realm. We are there to bring the Heart and Word of the Lord and declare it into this realm to bring a collision of heaven invading earth. We are to be a conduit of Heaven! 

Our objective, as it were, is to facilitate the establishment of the Kingdom of God by resonating the frequency of heaven in the realm of the earth... to BE the Throne of God (the seat of authority) in the Tabernacle of David; "And in mercy shall the throne be established: and he shall sit upon it in truth in the tabernacle of David, judging, and seeking judgment, and hasting righteousness." (Isaiah 16:5) 

As we do this, the "message," the Word of the Lord, the Seed is going forth. We believe that Father has already been speaking all through worship, communion, prayer, etc. Our gatherings are basically a prophetic expression of His Voice.  In other words, we are there to apprehend and declare the Word, the Voice of Father, to express Him, and that Voice/ Message comes out in many different forms, not just in the preaching. If you wait until the "preaching" for the Word of the Lord, you have already missed half the message! 

As we WorSHIP, we also become a WARship!  However, spiritual warfare is not a matter of us standing on the earth, our praise ascending to the heavens and piercing the spiritual darkness. Rather, it is much more a matter of US descending, bringing the GLORY of the Third Heaven (epouranos in Greek) where we are seated in Him, to invade the earth and therefore displacing principalities and powers by His resonant Word of power. 

Hidden in God 

What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?  This ship is also a FellowSHIP.  "And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ." (Ephesians 3:9) 

The fellowship of the mystery is simply the manifold Wisdom of God (which is Christ Himself) being revealed and displayed BY the Church because the Church becomes totally hidden IN God! "Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints... which is Christ IN you (the plural corporate fellowship of the Mystery), the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:26-27 my input in parenthesis) 

What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?  This ship is also a StewardSHIP; "Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God." (1 Corinthians 4:1) 

The word translated as "steward" is oikonomos in Greek and it means a manager, superintendent to whom the head of the house or proprietor has entrusted the management of his affairs, the care of receipts and expenditures, and the duty of dealing out the proper portion to every servant and even to the children not yet of age. We are entrusted with the affairs of the Kingdom, the expenditures and dispensing of the mysteries of God as Christ through us reveals Himself! 

What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?  This ship is ALL His WorkmanSHIP; "For we are His workmanship, created IN Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." (Ephesians 2:10) 

Father is the author and builder of this "ship" that we are being made into, therefore this "ship" is built to sail into the deep and withstand any storm of life. 

When Jesus Speaks 

"And He said unto them..." You know, when Jesus speaks, people should listen! I don't know that He was one to just ramble on with inane frivolities. In fact, here is what is recorded concerning what He spoke; "... the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life." (John 6:63) His words are spirit and life... that means His words originate in the Spirit and they produce Life and action that impacts this natural realm. 

Here is what He said, "Let us go over unto the other side of the lake..." Keep in mind that if Jesus said they were going to the other side, that meant they were absolutely going to the other side. Nothing could stop His words from coming to pass because they originate in the Spirit and they produce Life and action that impacts this natural realm!...
