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



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

March 20, 2020 Arleen Westerhof, The Netherlands



From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

Dear Elijah List Readers,

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

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

So here it is…from Prophet Arleen Westerhof:

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

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

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

Abundant blessings to you both,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Shaking

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

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

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

3 Prophetic Words for This Season: 'Build, Transformation, Transition' - JOE JOE DAWSON CHARISMA NEWS

(Pixabay/TiBine)

3 Prophetic Words for This Season: 'Build, Transformation, Transition'

JOE JOE DAWSON  CHARISMA NEWS
Recently, in a time of corporate prayer, the Lord spoke three words to me: build, transformation, transition. The Lord has been speaking to me about the word "build" for several months now. In November 2018, the Lord was speaking to me about how the first 90 days of 2019 would be a season to build, move forward and accelerate. So, when the Lord spoke the word "transformation" to me after this, I knew that what He was saying is that it not only a time to build, but whatever we are building will be transformational. Whatever you are building in this season, God is going to use it, and it will bring transformation to your sphere of influence.
Transformational growth must come in order to prepare us for transition. Whenever God builds anything or prepares anyone, He is preparing them to be strong, because God builds for longevity. God is building foundations in this season. In order for a tree to grow tall and remain healthy, its root must go down deep into the soil to sustain its growth. Whenever an architect builds a skyscraper, he must dig deeper down and lay a firm foundation in order to support the height of the building. God is building individuals, businesses, ministries, marriages, families and organizations in order to bring transformational growth.
God is building firm foundations of character and integrity in many people in this season. You need to be seeking the Lord in holiness and in preparation for the transformation God will work in you and through you. The transformation is for the transition.
"Transition" is a trendy word in the church culture today, but I really believe that God is preparing many in this season for an upcoming transition. But don't transition out of one thing into the next without clear direction from the Lord. Transition is coming to you in order to advance the kingdom of God. If God transitions you into something new, it is to bring transformation to that area. Whenever God places us somewhere, God is strategically placing us not just for ourselves, but for everyone around us. God transitions us to bring shifts to wherever He places us.

Lana Vawser: "Keep Your Hopes Up! Keep Your Faith High! I Am About to Arrive!" - The Elijah List

Lana Vawser: "Keep Your Hopes Up! Keep Your Faith High! I Am About to Arrive!"


The Elijah List Feb 7, 2019

Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:
We are living in some of the most exciting days that will be filled with God's glory. Will the world get darker and be full of challenges and shakings? Yes, yes it will...and that's WHEN we will see many mighty moves of God upon the earth.
Just read this most awesome word by Lana Vawser as she shares:
A strong sense of excitement surrounded me. God is about to move in such a powerful way in the lives of His people and on behalf of His people that there is going to be a major increase in miracles. There is going to be a turning of the tables. The supernatural power of God is going to be demonstrated in the lives of His people so powerfully, unlike anything that has ever been seen before.
As I leaned into the Lord to hear His heart, I kept hearing the words, "Keep your hopes up! Keep your faith high! I am about to ARRIVE!"
Now let's do what the Lord said through Lana...be full of hope and faith, as HE is about to arrive! (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

This week, the Lord surprised me with the way that He spoke to me. As I was washing the dishes the other day, suddenly, my washing was interrupted by a song that I knew none of the lines to, except for two lines of the chorus. I knew my Mum used to listen to this song years ago before I was married and lived at home.
Over and over again in my mind these two lines played loudly: "Are you ready for a miracle? As ready as I can be!" Over and over again they resounded loudly in my spirit. I knew immediately that the Lord was speaking. So I went and began to search out this song and looked at the lyrics. I was blown away!(To view the lyrics "Ready for a Miracle" click here.)
A strong sense of excitement surrounded me. God is about to move in such a powerful way in the lives of His people and on behalf of His people that there is going to be a major increase in miracles. There is going to be a turning of the tables. The supernatural power of God is going to be demonstrated in the lives of His people so powerfully, unlike anything that has ever been seen before.
As I leaned into the Lord to hear His heart, I kept hearing the words, "Keep your hopes up! Keep your faith high! I am about to ARRIVE!"
God is about to arrive in the lives of His people in such a way that Heaven is going to meet Earth in significant ways. There is about to be a significant reintroduction of the power of God in lives of His people. The story is changing. The page is turned and God is about to show Himself STRONG in the Body of Christ.
I hear the roar in of the Lion of Judah in the spirit. He is coming for His people. He is coming on behalf of His people. He is coming with a divine shift and alignment where nothing shall stand against the roar of His name, and the Body of Christ is going to shake with the sound of His faithfulness. The sound of His faithfulness is about to RESOUND LOUDLY! (Photo via Flickr)
Complete Transformation
The Lord spoke to me that He is coming as the Lion of Judah and that there is about to be a ROAR which is going to be released over many that will bring the most powerful divine alignment of their lives. It won't just be "one area" of their lives that is transformed, it will be a COMPLETE TRANSFORMATION. Jesus is about to reveal Himself in power like never before to many people. Not only will bodies suddenly be healed, situations will suddenly turn around, chains and giants will suddenly disintegrate, and ground the enemy has had will be suddenly withdrawn from him. NOTHING is going to stand against the name of Jesus. 
Things that have refused to bow to the name of Jesus in the lives of Believers are about to be uprooted and removed by the power of God in Jesus name.
2 Corinthians 1:20 is About to Resound LOUDLY!
"For all of God's promises find their 'yes' of fulfillment in Him. And as His 'yes' and our 'amen' ascend to God, we bring Him glory!" (2 Corinthians 1:20 The Passion Translation)
"For as many as are the promises of God, in Christ they are [all answered] 'Yes.' So through Him we say our 'Amen' to the glory of God." (2 Corinthians 1:20Amplified Version)
There is a major fulfillment of the promises of God which will be found in the miracles that are about to take place. I encourage you to create the environment of faith in your life to see the huge fulfillment and miracles that are about to take place. You have taken the Lord at His Word for so long, but struggles and battles have come to discourage you from these promises. A battle has raged in the darkness that many have not seen, but NOW you are about to be brought into the greatest miracle of your life. It will not be by your hand or your power, but by the Spirit of God.
Can't You Talk Louder, God?
I prophesy over you right now, in the name of Jesus: this year you are going to see the power of God and the miraculous burst forth in your life unlike anything you have ever seen before. Your cry will resound loudly, "LOOK WHAT GOD HAS DONE!"
"But let all who passionately seek You erupt with excitement and joy over what You've done! Let all Your lovers, who continually rejoice in the Savior, say aloud, 'How great and glorious is our God!'" (Psalm 70:4 The Passion Translation)
New Mantles in the Place of Miracles
The Lord showed me the ferocious attack that has been against many Believers and has continued into these early days of 2019. I heard the Lord say, "The enemy has tried to break you in these early days, but I am about to BREAK YOU THROUGH INTO THE NEW."
The Lord then showed me that this attack has been so ferocious because in the very area where the attack has been, the Lion of Judah is coming in power, releasing an increase of the miraculous, and that in that place, a NEW MANTLE will be received. That's why the enemy has fought so hard to keep God's people from the miracles the Lord is about to release.
There will be many new mantles received in the miracles God is releasing, and one of the mantles I saw falling on many in the Body of Christ was the mantle for HEALING.
There is a major tidal wave of God's healing that is going to crash into the Body of Christ very soon. The Lord showed me that many are going to carry this mantle for a powerful healing ministry, but ESPECIALLY those who have been relentlessly assaulted in their bodies their whole lives.The Lord is about to bring supernatural healing and wholeness to their bodies—a life-changing breakthrough. (Photo via Wikimedia)
The enemy will lose his hold, the spirit of infirmity will be cast out by the roar of the Lion of Judah. There will be deliverances and healings. There is about to be a major physical and emotional healing for these ones, and the Lord is going to release a huge mantle for healing upon them. Healing ministries will begin to explode through their lives. In this place, they will realize WHY the enemy has attempted to hold them back all their lives with infirmity—but NO MORE.
Media Reporting Miracles
I heard the Lord say, "In this new era, MEDIA will report the MIRACLES."
The Lord is going to move in such power in the Body of Christ and in the world, that even the news will report these unexplainable, supernatural miracles and the name of Jesus will be lifted high and testified all across the earth.
The Lord is not just reintroducing Himself to the Church, He is about to reintroduce Himself in power and glory to the world, and it will draw many to Him. The nations will shake and turn their heads. God is stepping into Earth in a way we have never seen before (Psalm 24:7-9).
The whole earth is groaning. It is groaning for the King of Glory to come and the manifested sons and daughters of God to arise. It's a Kairos time! It has arrived! The nexus points are here like we have never seen before.
"For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the LORD as the waters cover the sea." (Habakkuk 2:14 English Standard Version)
I heard His decree, "When I come, it will not be just 'some things' that will change. The magnitude of how I am about to come will see EVERYTHING CHANGE! Nothing will be left the same! My people, ARE you ready for a miracle? I'm coming!" (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

"The Angel of Movement is Bringing Greater Speeds of Acceleration!" Fiorella Giordano - The Elijah List

Fiorella Giordano: "The Angel of Movement is Bringing Greater Speeds of Acceleration!"


The Elijah List  Oct 26, 2018

Steve ShultzFrom the desk of Steve Shultz:
I am always pumped after reading prophetic articles by some of our featured Millennial authors. They certainly carry a "zeal" for the things of God that makes me want to go after MORE in fresh, new ways.
You'll be greatly encouraged in this latest article with dream encounters about the "Angel of Movement" that Fiorella Giordano recently had.
Just read this:
One of the main assignments of this angel is to break delay. He brings acceleration and advancement on many levels. He awakens not only movement, but pioneering movements that will bring the Kingdom in the earth on a greater level...
Now there is much more revelation in this, but I will let you read it for yourself.

HR


A few days ago I was visited by the Angel of Movement in my dreams. I have been processing the revelation that's been coming to me since then. In my first dream, He spoke to me about the architecture of divine movement. He said I must begin to think of movement as a system, a mechanism with many parts. I discerned that in order to go into greater speeds of acceleration and also in order to steward movement better, a greater measure of understanding was needed.
Understanding Heavenly Systems
The angel brought understanding into heavenly systems that facilitate Kingdom momentum of glory, of life, of restoration; with also systems of justice, systems of creativity, systems of abundance, systems of hope and systems of time. It was as if I could see the pieces that made up the whole of what caused things to flow. I could see how creation and the 7 days were like systems set in motion by the voice of God. I could see how the prophetic decree gives movement and life into cycles of Heaven that expand and touch many areas of life.
I was stunned at the infinity of God's goodness, His vastness and His ability to bring forth life and sustain it. He is desiring to fill us with the knowledge of His will, His purpose, His plan, His blueprint; revealing His divine design of eternal love working through faith, for the Kingdom.
I have only encountered this angel two other times and it was almost 9 months ago. I sense that in this hour there are things that are being brought into a fullness to be born into acceleration.
Breaking Delay and Advance!
One of the main assignments of this angel is to break delay. He brings acceleration and advancement on many levelsHe awakens not only movement, but pioneering movements that will bring the Kingdom in the earth on a greater level. He partners closely with the "Angel of the Winds of Change." He functions inside quantum levels in dimensions of time breaking delay from the past, the present and the future—and brings movement where things are dead or stagnant. (Photo via Unsplash)
I sense that there is an unveiling of blueprints at hand. Not just directions, but understanding into the many parts and pieces you and others are stewarding, in order to guard and steward the purpose of these parts, and to sustain an increase flow.
New Perspective to Unlock Blueprints of Destiny
Later, after processing the dream, I understood that one of the first places where delay is being broken is in our understanding of the things of God. God has ordained the fear of the Lord to mark this year. One of the first movements in this season will be a departing of evil. Not just evil as obvious sin and wrong doing, but evil that pollutes the mind and pollutes our understanding. This also includes misguided thinking such as chaos, confusion, fear, doubt and all that encompasses carnal thinking and mindsets.
Can't You Talk Louder, God?
There is understanding being released to depart from the things that take away from the fullness of the movement of God to depart from the things that subtract from the increase God is intending to bring. This new perspective will unlock the blueprints of destiny. It will unlock the aerial view to advance in the vision God is giving.
"Thus says the Lord: 'Let not the wise man boast in his wisdom, let not the mighty man boast in his might, let not the rich man boast in his riches, but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight,' declares the Lord." (Jer. 9:23-24)
"And to man He said, 'Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom, and to depart from evil is understanding.'" (Job 28:28)
Formula 1 Transformations
In my second dream, I saw vehicles being transformed to function in circuits of higher speeds. They were being expertly remodeled and prepared for this new season to withstand anything that would come against them. Every facet of movement in the vehicles were being safeguarded. Every piece was like an instrument in an orchestra, made to harmonize with new speed and circuit.
The changes in these transformations were done very quickly. Vehicles' infrastructures where completely changed. I noticed that many of them were like formula 1 cars, but also resembling a modern-day chariot. They had room for a couple passengers but not baggage. I believe that these transformations into higher dimensions of speed will require these cars to carry no baggage from their past. The new mobility will require a commitment to the goal.
I believe vehicles often time symbolize ministries, but also any type of movement to the ebb and flow of a person's life, their ministries, giftings, anointings and businesses. So whatever they put their actions to is being fashioned to travel quickly into the destined future. (Photo via Unsplash)
Where you have felt stalled or delayed, God is bringing a transformation to the way you have moved in the past. He is bringing transformation to advance you further. A transformation that will allow you to go at a speed you have not been able to reach before. Your systems (moving pieces) of giftings, of outlets and of life are being upgraded for a greater speed. I believe the Angel of Movement is being released right now to facilitate this transformation, to facilitate understanding into the flow of the purposes of God, and to facilitate and increase momentum in doors and circumstances.
There is a spiritual promotion to seat you securely into heavenly purpose in order to enter into the prize of the upward call of God in your life. Keep your gaze upon the One who is seated on the throne.
"Brethren, I do not regard myself as having laid hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus." (Phil. 3:13-14) (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Bobby Conner: Purified, Prepared, and Predestined

Bobby Conner:
Purified, Prepared, and Predestined
The Elijah List

Bobby Conner
Days of Preparation

Beloved, we are in the midst of a great, divine acceleration in the Spirit. The Body of Christ is being prepared for a fresh, new day of God's plan. The Spirit of God is doing a new thing and we must be prepared to move with Him (see Isaiah 48:6-7). Although this process could take a long time to mature fully, God has been preparing us for this day for many years! 

We are moving into the destiny the Lord has prepared for us before the foundation of the world.

This is a season of preparation. 

The Spirit of Truth is dealing deeply with Believers, calling us to draw near to Christ Jesus Himself with a holiness and single-mindedness like we have never before experienced. The Lord's people are being groomed to encounter Him in the fiery cloud of His Presence, and God will be found by, and in, all who are seeking Him with their whole Deep Calls Unto Deep by Mike De Lorenzo heart (see Jeremiah 29:12-13).

Truly, "deep is calling unto deep" (see Psalm 42:7). This is not the time to remain half-hearted and shallow: Now is the time to launch out into the deep and cry out with the apostle Paul, "That I may know Him" (Philippians 3:10), to be conformed to His image and to carry His presence. The Bride is being prepared to experience true union with Christ, to know Him intimately in order to be like Him in every aspect of our being, in spirit, soul, and body.

Revelation of Purity

How is this transformation happening? The Spirit of Truth is highlighting purity and uprightness so we may all walk in true holiness and the fear of the Lord (see 2 Corinthians 7:1). 

This lifestyle is not legalism but purity produced by love and loyalty for Christ the King
.
Truly, the Body of Christ is no longer satisfied with knowing our Lord and Savior as a doctrine of our mental understanding. As the Lord responds to the hunger of His people, He is revealing the Person of Jesus in the inward parts of our spirit. What we've understood with our "head knowledge," we will begin to experience through spiritual revelation. And as the eyes of our heart become enlightened, our character and lifestyle will be transformed (see Ephesians 1:17-18). 

Integrity and honesty will become paramount. 

We will live each day in such a manner that greatly pleases the Lord (see Colossians 1:9-10).

Revelation of Strategies
Springs of Life Key by Lillis BoyerAs a result of this deeper consecration to the Lord, many will receive divine strategies for this pivotal season (see John 16:13). 

The Spirit of Truth is releasing revelatory insights for all who are willing to hear Him with a heart set to obey what He is requesting (see James 1:22). 

Prepare to see an acceleration of the advancing of God's plans and purposes. God will have a people of purity and power, who live, move, and have their being in the absolute authority of Christ.

Revelation of Destiny

Whether or not you feel you are fulfilling your destiny, you are being prepared by the King of kings for His good purposes. You were chosen by God and have been given a divine destiny in eternities past. Why? The Lord is calling you to partner with Him to shape the future of the Kingdom of God (see 2 Corinthians 6:1)! This seems almost too marvelous to be true, but it is the Word of God. Ephesians 2:10 explains:

"For we are HIS workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."

What does it mean to be "HIS workmanship"? The Greek term translated workmanship ispoiema, from which we derive the English word poem. Indeed, we are God's poem, written in ages past to be a living testimony of His presence on earth (see Psalm 139:16-17). Without exception, every Believer has been created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God has ordained for us.

Revelation of Anointing

In Yeshua's Presence by Jennifer PageThe desperate cry of many Believers is: "Oh, Lord, let Your works appear unto Your people" (see Psalm 90:16-17). The good news is that God's anointing rests upon pure, upright followers of Jesus, and we will fulfill His purposes on earth. God has not only ordained good works for us, but He has also provided the grace we need to perform these works (see Philippians4:13). We all have "an unction to function." Each one of us is anointed to fulfill the purposes of God (see Acts 1:8).

As we move deeper into this season of sensitivity and revelatory enlightenment, we must never forget that our calling and destiny, our chief aim, is to abide in our Beloved Jesus Christ, fixing our eyes on Him and Him alone. 

Only in His light do we see light (see Psalm 36:9). Only in His presence do we obtain a happy, holy heart (see Psalm 16:11).

Leaders With Pure Hearts

These marks of maturity are being seen in many lives, but it is imperative that leaders set an even higher standard for the Body of Christ. Purity of heart and purity of motives are required if we are to behold the Lord (see Hebrews 12:14). 

Divinely appointed leaders are emerging who have a single heart's goal to establish the King in His Kingdom on earth.

Heart of Fire and Passion by Lillis BoyerThis purity of heart is an absolute requirement for every Believer and leader, because we are entering into a season of signs and wonders on a level never before experienced. But we must be on the alert: the supernatural will be displayed not only from the Holy Spirit but also from the dark side. 

Scripture warns that, in the last days, deception will be strong (see Matthew 24:24). Even though the enemy will attempt to deceive many, Christ Jesus will have for Himself a people prepared to do greater works (see John14:12).

This is not a time for any Believer or leader in the Body of Christ to be humdrum, expecting only what we have seen and experienced before. We have never been where we are going now (see Joshua 3:4). 

We all must prepare for what is ahead: The call to embrace the awe of Almighty God. A wonderful, reverential fear of the Lord is returning to the people of God, releasing the wisdom of God (see Psalm 111:10).

The hearts and lives of millions are going to be touched and transformed by the power of God during these days, as God's people return to a radical love for Christ.

Amen!

Bill Burns: 2014 – A Year of Prophetic Alignment and Divine Fulfillment (The Elijah List)

Love For His People Editor's Note: I like sharing these words, as an encouragement to whomever will receive them. I also look to see how they align or add to those already shared.  I can relate to this one very much so, as I too have heard these things from others personally. Steve Martin
Bill Burns:
2014 – A Year of Prophetic Alignment 
and Divine Fulfillment
(The Elijah List)

Bill BurnsIn 2012 God began to reveal His divine government to the hearts of those who desired to live under His rule. In 2013 the Lord brought His order into the lives of those willing to live under His rule. Divine order has been established among His people.

2014 will be known to many as the "Year of Prophetic Alignment." In this season the Spirit of the Lord will align His people with His purposes. 

This alignment will be brought by way of revelation of God's purposes (plans) for individuals; these revelations will come through dreams, visions, prophetic words, signs, and wonders.

We must stand watch and listen so that the opportunities for alignment are not missed. When the revelation of God's purpose comes, you will be aligned, brought into spiritual positioning, to go through the door that is being opened to you.

Spiritual Doors

Spiritual doors will open to youSpiritual doors will open in this season that will bring you into a new spiritual landscape. It will become a place of elevation – a higher place than you have been before – a place of purpose.

Revelation 3:8 "I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name."

Once this door is opened to you and you enter into this spiritual environment, you will find the pathway that leads to the fulfillment of your destiny.

The Pathway

Some time ago I had a vision of a pathway that leads to spiritual understanding. The pathway went up a mountain and was called the "Ancient Pathway." I understood that this was the pathway that the prophets of old walked on. As you begin to follow this path, you will see more clearly that which the Lord is showing you, and you will become more supernatural than you are now.

Jesus, the Prince of PeaceThe doors will open and the pathways will be revealed in this season, because this is a season of divine fulfillment.

Isaiah 42:16 "I will bring the blind by a way they did not know; I will lead them in paths they have not known. I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I will do for them, and not forsake them."

A Season of Transformation

This will be a time in which great grace will be on those who follow the path that the Lord has established for them. There will be designated places on the pathway that will become flash points of God's glory that will transform them.

2 Corinthians 3:18 "But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord."

This transformation will align us with the mind of Christ (see 1 Corinthians 2:16). Our thoughts will become more Christ-like.

Romans 12:2 "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God."

A Season of Restoration

A "Season of Restoration" has begun and will continue into 2014. 

The first three months will become key months in which to believe for restoration.


December 2013 Small Straws by Marsha Burns: "The process of restoration has begun. Move with it in faith that what has begun will come to a full completion. Trust Me to help you move forward with strength and in the power of My Spirit,"says the Lord. "Refuse to allow fear to derail your progress. Stand unwavering and be resolute. 

Be renewed in faith, in hope, and in peace. The work of the enemy to tear you down has been formidable, but I will restore what has been torn down. I will strengthen what has become weakened through attacks on your body, soul, and spirit. Yield to My power to build you up and prepare you to fulfill My purposes in your life. Yours is to overcome the despair that has developed as a result of relentless difficulties and begin to look to better days," says the Lord."

A season of restorationIn a vision I found myself in an old house that was in need of repair. I heard the bells of destiny, and was suddenly engulfed in a whirlwind of the Spirit of God that removed the structure of the house from around me. 

There I stood in midair with the things of the earth that weighed me down removed from me. The light of God was all around me and above and beneath me. I felt light as air; without hindrance. I was aware of a unity with God that manifested without any effort on my part. It was beautiful, exhilarating, refreshing, and revitalizing.

My youth was restored. And, I heard the voice of the Lord: "Beloved, I see and know your struggles and the weariness you have experienced. But, I tell you truly that a time of restoration and healing is upon you. Relax and receive all that I have for you."

Isaiah 40:31 "But those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.

A Season of Perfection

Spiritual doors will open to youSeven is God's number of perfection, and 2014 has two sevens in the number 14. Two sevens indicate a double portion

The double portion will begin with the anointing and will manifest in various blessings in this year.

Generational blessings will come to many this year, because the number 14 belongs to this purpose and this time.

Matthew 1:17 "So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations, from David until the captivity in Babylon are fourteen generations, and from the captivity in Babylon until the Christ are fourteen generations."

We are coming into a set time in which the Lord's favor and blessing will come to His people.

Psalm 102:13 "You will arise and have mercy on Zion; for the time to favor her, yes, the set time, has come."

Watch and Learn

The Lord often asked His prophets, "What do you see?" In this time it will be important to watch, to see what we are being shown.

Watch, listen and learnHabakkuk 2:1 "I will stand my watch and set myself on the rampart, and watch to see what He will say to me, and what I will answer when I am corrected."

The Lord is going to use your circumstances to show you things that need to be corrected. Our circumstances will reveal our motives and attitudes as we interact with our circumstances. Allow the Lord to use them as a classroom. Watch, listen, and learn. 

He will bring both correction and victory into every situation that you are involved in.

Proverbs 4:10-13 "Hear, my son, and receive my sayings, and the years of your life will be many. I have taught you in the way of wisdom; I have led you in right paths. When you walk, your steps will not be hindered, and when you run, you will not stumble. Take firm hold of instruction, do not let go; keep her, for she is your life."

Signs & Wonders

Signs and wonders will also be seen and understood as we stand our watch. The Spirit of God will show us signs and wonders that reveal and/or confirm that which is coming into alignment with His Word.

Acts 2:18-20 "And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; and they shall prophesy. I will show wonders in heaven above and signs in the earth beneath: Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD."

Signs and wondersThis year will be very interesting as we will see blood red moons at the same time of the Feast of Passover and the Feast of Tabernacles. This sign is one of double portion for both the Church and Israel. It is a sign of great significance for 2014.

One of the signs of the end of the age that we who watch the news have become aware of in this last year is:
"And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring..." (Luke 21:25).

The Distress of Nations

The word "distress" indicates that nations are in anguish and with perplexity (unable to think clearly). We see this distress in the Middle East among the nations as civil unrest.

This is clearly a sign that we are living in the end of the age. The people are rising up against the established authority, and they are demanding change.

Are You Prepared?

Move ForwardAre you prepared to leave the past behind and press into the glory of this new season? 

The apostle Paul encouraged us to do as he has done.

Philippians 3:13-14 "Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."

December 17, 2013, Small Straws by Marsha Burns: "The season of adjustment is upon you, but you will have to mentally and emotionally let go of things that tie you to the past before you can move forward in My purposes. If you will take this step of faith, you will come into a place of liberty and fulfillment that you have not known before. Trust Me to bring you through this awkward transition with great grace," says the Lord. "All you have to do is be willing and flexible."

The Year 2014 Will Be:

1. A time of intense spiritual warfare, but you will have a more powerful anointing, which will enable you to have victory over your enemies.

2 Corinthians 2:14 "Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place."

2. This season will be one of acceleration – things will move fast, so you will have to be found in a position of readiness to move with the promptings of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 8:14 "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God."

3. This will be a season of convergence when those things that have been ordained by God come together. When His Word comes together with His purposes in His set times, all things will become possible to those who believe.

Mark 9:23 "Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."

Guard your heart4. It will be a time in which you will need to set a watch and guard your heart. (Photo courtesy: Josh May)

Proverbs 4:23 "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life."

Therefore, our prayer must be:
Psalm 51:10 "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me."

5. Hidden things that you have not been aware of will be revealed.

Isaiah 48:6 "You have heard; see all this. And will you not declare it? I have made you hear new things from this time, even hidden things, and you did not know them."

Things are not always as they seem to be. Some things are hidden in darkness behind the scenes. Now you will know that which is hidden, and you can then deal with it.

6. The Lord is aligning us with victory. Victorious mindsets will be established in us by the Spirit of God. Defeat and victimization will no longer be a part of your DNA. Divine health will come to those who ask for and believe it.

3 John 2 "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers."

7. Supernatural provision will come to those who align themselves with God's Word and His purposes.
Luke 6:38 "Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you."

Conclusion

Spiritual doors will open to youThese are the things I have seen, and they are yours to receive. It was as though I was riding on a very fast train, and these things came into view from the window that I was looking out of. They are just glimpses of the future, and I have a sense that they will be expounded by the prophets in this coming season.

Have a blessed ride; it will be a fast one. So, I suggest that you buckle up, because our Lord is going to put His foot on the pedal.
