The 2017 World Baseball Classic already has one of its biggest surprises in Israel, which beat Chinese Taipei, 15-7, on Tuesday at the Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, South Korea, in the second game of the tournament. With its second win in as many days, Israel is in prime position to advance to the next round.

Israel wasted no time taking control of the game, coming out of the gate with four consecutive hits and scoring four runs in the top of the first inning.

Ryan Lavarnway added a two-run home run in the third inning and Nate Freiman tied a bow on the victory with a three-run shot in the ninth as Israel's balanced offense combined for 20 hits.

Chinese Taipei briefly closed the gap in the bottom of the sixth, scoring three runs to cut Israel's lead to 6-3. But Chinese Taipei's bullpen faltered in the top of the seventh as the Israelis pulled away with a five-run inning.

Playing in its first Classic, Israel is 2-0 in Pool A, having beat host Korea, 2-1, in 10 innings on Monday. Israel can win Pool A if it beats the Netherlands on Wednesday (10 p.m. ET). It may have already clinched a spot in the second round by that time, though, as a win by the Dutch team over Chinese Taipei at 4:30 a.m. ET Wednesday would send the Netherlands and Israel through to Round 2 in Tokyo. The top two teams from each of the four pools advance.

While Israel has enjoyed early success as a tournament darling, manager Jerry Weinstein wants his club focused on the next game, not the next round.

"One of the goals is to not put the cart before the horse," Weinstein said. "We're not in the second round yet. We're preparing for the game with the Netherlands and that's what we're thinking about right now. My experience has been that when you start getting ahead of yourself, you get out in the future, you're not taking care of the present. We need to take care of what we're doing here right now and when we know we're going to be in next round, then we'll start talking about the next round."

Israel once again benefitted from a strong performance from its starting pitcher. Corey Baker fired 4 2/3 scoreless innings, scattering three hits and striking out three. The 27-year-old right-hander is in the Cardinals' organization and reached Triple-A last season.

Chinese Taipei saw its offense come alive with four runs in the ninth, but the game was already out of reach by then.

Israel had 10 different players record a hit, including four players with three hits and two others with multiple hits. Freiman drove in four runs, Tyler Krieger drove in three, and Ike Davis and Lavarnway each contributed two RBIs.

Krieger's two-run single

Tyler Krieger grounds a two-run single up the middle, pushing Israel's advantage to 4-0 and knocking out starter Chun-Lin Kuo in the 1st

MOMENTS THAT MATTERED
Early offense: The Israelis chased Taipei starter Chun-Lin Kuo from the game before he could secure his third out, opening the top of the first with four straight hits and tagging Kuo for four runs in the frame.

Davis and Krieger each delivered two-run singles. Davis recently signed a Minor League deal with the Dodgers and Krieger is ranked as the Indians' No. 18 prospect by MLBPipeline.com.

"I just also think it was important, because last night was such an emotional game and a stressful game; to get out of the gate with high energy and get on top early, so that was good," Lavarnway said.

Davis' two-run single

Ike Davis lines a two-run single to right field to open the scoring for Israel in the top of the 1st inning

Captain comes through: Chih-Sheng Lin, selected as the team captain for Chinese Taipei, put his team on the board with a two-run double in the sixth. Lin has said he plans to retire from the national team after the Classic.

QUOTABLE
"You know, for us, or for me, this is a huge deal to help possibly maybe kick‑start baseball in Israel. It's not as big as we'd like, and I think we can maybe change that with what we're doing." -- Davis, on growing the game in Israel

SOUND SMART WITH YOUR FRIENDS
Israel entered WBC '17 ranked No. 41 in the world, according to the World Baseball Softball Confederation, and has already beaten the No. 3 (Korea) and No. 4 (Chinese Taipei) ranked teams.

"Bob Jones' 1985 'Kansas City Royals' Prophecy Stirs Hope for Revival" - Jennifer LeClaire, The Elijah List

"Bob Jones' 1985 'Kansas City Royals' Prophecy Stirs Hope for Revival"

Jennifer LeClaire, Fort Lauderdale, FL

The Elijah List

The Kansas City Royals rallied to win the World Series on Sunday, and many in Kansas City and beyond are shouting for joy—even if they are not hardcore baseball fans. That's because they are believing the prophets and hoping to prosper.

Indeed, the win was not only significant because it was the first time in 30 years the Royals took home the championship; it's significant because it fulfills a string of prophecies and stirs hope in the hearts of many contending for revival in Kansas City and America.

Mike Bickle, director of the International House of Prayer in Kansas City (IHOPKC), shares a Bob Jones prophecy in the ministry's prophetic history. He explains that Jones prophesied during the 1985 World Series:

"God, the Holy Spirit is going to create worldwide attention to be focused on Kansas City ... That's the good news. Here's the bad news. The Lord is going to do it through the baseball game.

"It looks like Kansas City is down and out and will never make it and suddenly at 5 till 12 the Lord brings the victory in. That's the spiritual message over this movement breaking forth in this city. 

When it looks like it is five till twelve and Kansas City is counted out. Suddenly at 5 till 12 the Lord's breaking in victory."

Later, Jones told Bickle: "I heard it! I heard it out loud. I heard it in my dream. I heard the voice of the Lord. It spoke resounding. I heard it very clear. The Lord said, 'Eleven is the number because it's the 11th hour victory. It's the 11th hour victory He's going to give Kansas City."

The 1985 match went down in baseball history as the "Miracle World Series" because it looked hopeless. From the outside looking in, it didn't appear there was any way the Royals were going to pull out a victory. Kansas City was down three games to one and had to win four in a row to take the crown. Thirty years ago, Jones went on to tell Bickle:

"You're going to be counted out many times by people and at 5 till 12, in the 11th hour, the Lord is going to break through and this prayer movement is going to succeed and it's going to get the attention of the entire earth. This is going to happen. You wait and watch the baseball league."

Of course, this was long before IHOPKC was going hard 24/7 with worship and prayer. It was before a generation of youth started contending for revival. And this was before Bob Hartley, founder of Hartley Institute/Deeper Waters Ministry in Kansas City, had six dreams about the drama of the Kansas City Royals. Here's the bottom line of those prophetic encounters:

"Watch the Royals, because after many years of disappointment, the Royal ones are entering into a time of Numbers 27:18-23, where they are being commissioned to enter into the promises. Watch them, as they will win and bring a shift from hopelessness to hope ... This is going to be like 1985. Do you remember what brought them home? ... Hope unseen will get them to first base. Then they will become unburdened and light on their feet. 

This carefree hope will get them to second base. They will be filled with joy and happily steal third base with childlike hope ... but salvation will come from an unlikely place and 'hope against hope' will bring them home."

And then it happened. The Royals won the World Series in 2015 after a heartbreaking Game 7 loss to San Francisco last year. As the Associated Pressput it, "For these resilient Royals, no deficit is too large, no time in the game too late."

At a time when hopeless is striking the heart of America and men's hearts threaten to fail them for fear of economic meltdowns, plagues, earthquakes and other evil prophetic forebodings, the words of Jones and Hartley are ringing in the ears of Believers around the nation believing for a Third Great Awakening.

Could God be speaking words of life and hope—and revival—through a baseball game?

"World Champions! A Prophetic Sign to the Church from Prophet Bob Jones, As Kansas City Royals Win World Series" by Bob Jones, Submitted by Bonnie Jones - The Elijah List

"World Champions! A Prophetic Sign to the Church from Prophet Bob Jones, As Kansas City Royals Win World Series"

by Bob Jones, Submitted by Bonnie Jones, Pineville, NC

The Elijah List

The Royals had come from behind again for an 8th time in their 11 postseason games, securing their first World Series title since 1985 (click here for story).

It's been thirty years since Bob Jones' prophecy that the Kansas City Royals would be World Champs. In the spring of 1985 when Bob brought this wild and outrageous prophecy, the Royals were in the basement. People laughed and sneered at Bob calling him a false prophet, but God would prove him to be trusted and true. The Royals began to rise in the stats and go on to win the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals.

In the fall of 2010 Bob was in a powerful trance where the Father took him to a baseball field and reminded him of past revelation. He also gave Bob understanding of the present condition of the Church and things to come. I want to share this powerful experience, which also includes both "Baseball Prophecies" from 1985 and 1995.

These prophecies were parables to the Church, establishing love, faith, godly wisdom, grace and justice. After thirty years (that represents the royal priesthood), Kansas City once again holds the title of winners of "The World Series". I believe the fact that the Royals made a comeback in the 12th inning scoring 5 runs says there is grace for the royal priesthood of Believers to establish new government. And they will be the "World Champions" as you will read in Bob's last prophecy about the Church being International.

Be blessed as you read these exciting prophecies. Congratulations Kansas City Royals!

Home Base

A couple of weeks ago, I was in a high level trance; one of the highest ones that I have known in recent years. The Lord came and took me to a field and it had been covered with snow for two years. We walked out on this field and He told me to uncover a place where He pointed. So I began to rake the snow away from the place that He said, and I realized it was a baseball plate. I didn't rake off all of the snow I just saw it was a baseball plate. 

And He said, "That's all I want you to see. This is home base and now the sun will melt the snow off of the rest of it. You did all I want you to do right now. I just wanted to show you that this is home base."

I believe the Church is getting ready to come back to the bases. And home base is also the beginning and the end. It's where you start, and it's also where you win. I believe that we had a start, but I think we're coming into a year of winning.

Then He said, "Do you know what home base is?" And I'm thinking, No not really. He said, "I've given you revelation in the past where home base is. But mainly home base is going to be repentance and prayer. These things that I've shown you in the past, I can begin to bring it in step-by-step." He said,"This field had been snowed under for two years."

So I believe the Church is going through two years of really hard, dark times. It was like we didn't know where to go, and it was like a blanket of snow was on everything. I don't think this snow meant righteousness. I think it meant two years of trouble. 

These two years of trouble were coming to an end because it had accomplished some of the things it was meant to do.

Field of Dreams

He said, "This base is international!" So I'm not speaking about one church here; I'm speaking about the Church worldwide. 

And He reminded me that twice before I brought a prophecy about a baseball game. Also that it reminded me of a movie called, "Field of Dreams." So I think for two years we've been plowing things under in a time of not knowing what we were doing. But we were doing our best to obey what He was telling us to do just like the Field of Dreams. I believe that this "Field of Dreams" is getting ready to be revealed like it was in the movie. He told me to just repeat what you did twenty-five years ago.

Kansas City Royals – 1985

On May 21st of 1985, I brought a word in Kansas City about a baseball game, and it was about the Kansas City Royals. At that time the Kansas City Royals were then in the cellar. They hadn't won a game in quite a long while and nobody was paying much attention to them. 

My word was this, "The Kansas City Royals was going to come forth and was going to begin to win. They were going to be world champions in 1985."(Photo via flickr)

This is what I saw in the vision: I saw that it was the last half of the 9th inning and satan's team was in the field and the Lord's team was at bat, and the Lord's team had two outs. 

So the Lord sent in His first batter and this batter was Love. 

So satan pitched the ball and Love swung and it was a base hit. One on.

Love is the thing that's going to be the base. Love has got to be the basis of all things in Christianity. 

And I believe this is the year true Christians are going to be known for the love they have for one another. True servants of the Lord. They're going to be brought into a place of loving one another to where they have total control over their tongue, over their conversation, and how they express and present things. 

These three things: conversation, expression and presentation are going to be done in love. There's no defense the enemy has against love.

Instead of gossip, slander, and all of these wrong things, I think that when true disciples of the Lord speak, it will be something you want to listen to. Because if they haven't got something good to say about somebody, they won't say anything. But when they're saying something good about somebody you want to hear about it, because it's going to be the truth.

So, the first batter was Love. Well, faith worketh by love. 

Then the Lord sent His second batter out and His name was Faith. 

Faith pleases God and he can't fail. So, satan pitched the ball. Faith swung. Base hit. Two on!

So, I believe the Lord is calling us to a place of faith. Faith to me is three things. Humility to me is simply being obedient to the written Word of God, the logos, for it is the law book that shows us how to grow up. And if you grow up, your conversation is going to be right. I believe there's a work in humility that I could also call obedience, but you can also call it faith.

These three things I see as one: humility, obedience, and faith. 

You cannot study the Word without adding faith to it. If you obey it, then faith is going to automatically begin to move in you because you believe the logos. Then the living Words will start coming out of you. When it does, that faith can swing and it will be a base hit.

Then the Lord brought out His third batter. His name was Godly Wisdom. 

And satan pitched the ball, and Godly Wisdom looked over the ball and let it pass. Satan pitched the second ball; He looked it over and let it pass. Satan pitched a third ball; Godly Wisdom looked it over and also let it pass. Then satan pitched a fourth ball; Godly Wisdom looked it over and let it pass. 

You see, Godly Wisdom won't swing at what satan is throwing at him.(Photo via flickr)

Many times satan throws us things and our tongue can speak it, but Godly Wisdom won't allow it. Many times Godly Wisdom is in our ambitions and everything, because the enemy opens doors the Holy Spirit is not opening for us, and we enter those doors by not discerning whether the Lord wants us to or not. We should go to Him. 

When a door opens, we should go to find out who opens it, and you'll know real quick-like. Is it love? Is it faith? Well, if it's these things then it will be our witness to what the Holy Spirit's opening. But if it's our ambition, like money, then many times the enemy opens that door to distract us.

So Godly Wisdom looks them over and lets them all pass. Bases loaded! And the Lord is sending in a pinch hitter. Nobody's ever seen him before, and I don't think this generation has seen him. 

His name is Grace; great Grace.

So satan winds up and pitches. It was a tremendous hit. And satan's hollering, "Don't worry about it. I've got beelzebub (another name for satan or demon) in center field and he's never let a fly get by." By the way, flies mean lies. And so the ball is going to center field and beelzebub is hollering, "I got it! I got it!"

But it went right through his glove and banged him in the head, and down come beelzebub. Home run! Grand slam!

Why didn't Love, Faith, and Godly Wisdom get you through? They are only steps to prepare you for great Grace, and great Grace will get you home. The others will get you one base but great Grace will get you home!

I believe we are starting the Season of Love. And as we begin to love one another and be known throughout the world by the love we have for one another, we'll begin to see faith really rise up and get an answer to things. 

We'll begin to see the Body of Christ mature into Godly Wisdom to where we totally bridle our tongue so that when we speak, things happen. These are all a preparation for great Grace to get us home.

This was a parable of the Kansas City Royals when I brought it in 1985. They were in the cellar when I spoke this prophecy. I was pretty young in prophecy then and was really sweating it because it went all over town, and everybody said we'd know he's a false prophet because that's not going to happen.

Well, the Royals began to win immediately and they kept winning. They advanced to the World Series and the final game was played in Kansas City against the St. Louis Cardinals. After six games played they were tied with three games each. This was the final game of the series. 

And if I've ever seen a fix, Papa had a fix in on this game because the Cardinals were a powerful team, and everybody said Kansas City doesn't stand a chance because the Cardinals are a far better team. They had a far better coach and all the money was bet on the Cardinals. (Photo via flickr)

So the game was played. It really got frustrating for the Cardinals because everything they did disintegrated, while everything the Royals did ended in home runs. It finally ended with the Royals 11 – Cardinals 0. I believe that number 11 is important because we are getting ready to start 2011.

Atlanta Braves – 1995

In 1995, I attended a MorningStar conference in Fort Mill (in South Carolina). I was living in Panama City, Florida and I was on my way up there. I was thinking of that baseball game, and that I needed to bring that prophecy again. 

(Paul) Keith Davis was driving me and said, "Bob, I think you ought to bring that prophecy again." I said, "That's my confirmation." When I got there, I told them I have a prophecy I want to bring and I started sharing the baseball story with them. I hadn't heard this before, but as I shared it I said, "This year it will be the Atlanta Braves," and I didn't know that till the second I spoke it. But Atlanta Braves will be the World Champions this year. So needless to say we really watched the baseball games that year.

It was the sixth game of the World Series played in Atlanta against the Cleveland Indians. The score was 0-0 going into the last half of the 9th inning and Atlanta had 2 outs, and a man by the name of David Justice comes up to the plate. He hit a home run. I believe "David's Justice" has a real meaning to it. And Atlanta was the winner that year. They became World Champions. 

I believe the Lord is talking about world champions.

World Champs – The Church

Now this is the third time I'm bringing this prophecy. He didn't tell me the name of a baseball team. There's going to be winners. I think He said the Church is the winner this year. I think the Church has sort of been in the cellar. Like literally, on our knees praying.

I think the Church is going to come out of the cellar and out of the dark place. 

The cellar is dark. I think sometimes the cellar can be a comfort zone. I think we're going to come out of our comfort zone and we're going to come out into the light. And I think you're getting ready to see these four things working in the Church this year: Love bringing forth Faith, Godly Wisdom, and get ready for Grace to come to the plate. 

(Photo via Pixabay)

Home base: I think everything He's talking about is home base. Everything He's talking about here will be international – worldwide. 

I think we're getting ready for our Father's game to start, and I don't believe the enemy's going to be able to stop the ball from rolling. And no matter what he pitches at the Church, the Church is going to knock in a home run, because I think our Daddy has got the fix in. And I think He's appointed the Church to begin to be aware this year – to where those that don't know Him will see there's something behind these people that are representing Him.

So I think that snow has melted and the trouble is long gone. I think spring is getting ready to spring forth in the Church, and I believe you're getting ready to hear the song birds again; praise on a level like we've never heard before. I think the long, hard winter is over but the trouble in the world is only beginning. And I think the trouble in the true Church is coming to an ending, by us joining one to the other in love. 

For there's no weapon the enemy's got that can defeat love. So get ready for love to be the main message you'll hear. 

And you don't have to worry about the faith because if you have love it will come. Where you have that love and that faith, it will discern to where Godly Wisdom will have its way.

I believe we're in a time of tremendous change. 

In a time where you're going to see Christians with a smile on her face because they're going to be world winners. Get ready because you're a winner! Our old winter is gone and you're the World Champions. It's getting ready to be revealed worldwide this coming year.

Bob's Prayer for the Body

In Jesus name, I do bless you. And let your eyes open to see that love will enter into you and have His perfect work in you and bring you to that place so you'll be a vessel of love poured out to all who come your way. In Jesus name, amen.

Ahava Love Letter (#51) - "40 years ago..."

“40 years ago…” “They were all filled with the Ruach HaKodesh  and began to talk in different languages,  as the Spirit enabled them to speak."  (Acts 2:4 Complete Jewish Bible)

Dear family of friends,

When Terri Smith asked me to go to the meeting, that April in 1973, I thought, "OK. I am curious."

It was our senior year at Columbus High School in Waterloo, Iowa. I was looking forward to graduation a month later, with the other 108 classmates. Our last varsity spring baseball season would also be finished in June. (In case you were wondering - we didn't make it back to the baseball state finals, as we did my junior year.)

I really appreciated our small Catholic school, except when we got beat up, playing the three large public schools of East, West and Central Waterloo in football. Even my home town Cedar Falls High School always ran the score up on us. Sailor power only went so far. But we did triumph in basketball, track and field, and baseball of course.

Maybe something would happen at this prayer meeting that would last beyond high school.

It was somewhat known by a few in school that the Catholic Church had gotten involved in the Charismatic Movement back in '67, but I wasn't too much aware of it. My Mom had been going to some prayer meetings for some time. I was enjoying high school. (And in a good way.)

In His preparatory way, the weekend TEC (Teens Encounter Christ) event that I had gone on, for seniors back in November, had triggered something in my spirit. So I wanted to see what else would happen.

It was a small group who had gathered in Terri's house. Maybe five or six total. If I remember right (again, it was 40 years ago) someone talked and then several prayed. Over us. With hands on our heads. Praying in a different language, other than English or Spanish. They were quietly asking the Father to baptize us with His Holy Spirit, to "fill us", with "tongues” following.

And thus He came. Ruach HaKodesh. The Holy Spirit. And so did the evidence of speaking in tongues. For me. For the others there.

As these decades have passed, I have been continually aware of His presence, the Third Person in the Holy Trinity. He is The Comforter. He is the One who whispers to us, directing and imparting, if our internal ears and eternal spirit are open to listening and obeying.

Time spent in intercession, speaking in my prayer language, has increased immensely over these years. He uses my tongue to intercede for my beloved family and friends, for the office staff, for our  falling nation, and especially for the Jewish people of Israel.

Have you received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit? You can. And then you get to pray in tongues, the first gift He'll give you to use in power for daily victory.

And yes...there is something about the #40. This year I certainly am finding that out.

Ahava to my family of friends,
