God the Dream Giver

I found this article to be a bit of a long read, but the concept good. Never forget the Giver of Dreams.

Dreamer

Who knows the inner recesses of the heart. Who has found the key to unlock the deep inner door that leads to the dreams within. What will dampen the dream, or take away the zeal for seeing the dream come true. A dream not come true is no dream at all. In essence a dream is a heart found aspiration that is formed in the inmost part of the individual.

Most importantly, most dreams are given to each and every person on planet earth, these normally are conceived as a child, usually in the first 5 years of the child’s life. The Nature of such inclination is to pursue such desire if ever obtainable. Every person has a child inside, where they can recall childhood memories of old, the moments, the places, and most importantly the things that lead to their dreams in life.

So often we want to reflect on the need to achieve ones dreams, instead we ought to make place for the dream giver…..God. So we start off with a dream, and in actual fact, we tend to remove the dream from the dream giver, and this way, many lose heart and their God given dreams.

Many are born with the Gifts to achieve their dreams, and without the God connection they might excel in a particular arena, but this will not bring fulfillment and content. Therefore, the dream giver, God, is and should in this regard be our ultimate desire in life.

Even though we dream big. Does not mean we can not achieve it…no, but before we can reach our dreams there is certain key kingdom criteria that needs be in place. As in, becoming the last to be the first, to die to self in order to live your dream. So then, a dream is a God idea for your life, and God wants to give you the desires of your heart, but often and most times we lose heart, and don’t complete the race set before us. Without seeing, without achieving, living a under average life, should not be seen as the end of the race.

God wants you to pick up on your dreams. Never ever should you let go of your God given dreams. Sometimes, a dream might relate to a certain person that you loved, and sometimes we lose them. This is when a dream dies! When a dream dies is the saddest funeral I have ever experienced. A dream dead, has not seen its fulfillment, but does not mean it was not a God idea. Often and many a case, people are the main cause that we give up on our God given dreams in life. Not that I am saying they do it intentionally, no, but rather out of nature and concern that might not necessarily be a God idea.

You might act the part for your dream, and expect everyone to play along, but this does not mean that people will miss understand you. Don’t pretend as if everyone else knows that you meant to be someone you formulized in your heart. Even though you know that this is the calling that God has put on your life means that not everyone might accept this.

So then, a dream is always but always connected to certain key people in your life. I have never heard of a dream that does not involve a third party person. So then when we are pushed aside, not needed, even as far as rejected. This can indeed destroy a dream. God who understands, allows us to move on, and sometimes the Lord will give you a new avenue to reflect the desire of your heart. God is in the business of giving new dreams. Even though your dream might be dead, which means that a part of your life is DEAD, God is will raise another dream in your life. God can bring your past failures, your obscure years into rivers of living water.

Then now, the ultimate for any dreamer is to experience the tangibility of their dream and see it come to pass regardless of price. But now sadly I need to inform you, unless you lose yourself completely and let go! You might never experience the tangibility of your dream.

God Says: You Are GREATLY Loved

This word today comes from Al Thomas, in response to his seeking more revelation on what God had revealed to him through his son, Pastor Justin Thomas. As the father can hear God through his son, he relays a special message to us on what God has to say about dwelling on Him and His voice, His Word.

Be encouraged as you read on about what God actually has to say to you today, and every day!

God Says, "You are Greatly Loved, More than You Could Ever Comprehend"
by Al Thomas

Al and Sherry Thomas

The genesis of this word was originally birthed from a teaching delivered at Harvest Christian Fellowship in Frederick, Maryland. Being on the road most of the time, I was rejoicing at having the privilege of being fed. I heard a powerful message on the subject, "The Kingdom of God." I was greatly impacted by the word (pardon my bias, but it was delivered by my son, Pastor Justin Thomas).

As I was driving home, the Holy Spirit began to speak to me and I felt a great compulsion to seek the Father concerning some of the revelation I had just heard. Within three days, I received the following from God.

God said: "Many of My people are in bondage thinking (falsely) that they are failing Me. They pray, read My Word, etc., yet as the years roll on, discouragement rears its head, then guilt and shame become more than acquaintances, not to mention the harassment of the devil's condemnation. I have some powerful keys for My sheep to avoid this snare."

God Said: "Instead of Thinking You are Failing, Dwell on How Much I Love You"

"This is a truth that must be grasped by all of My children or they will never be able to truly be free. It saddens Me that many of My children say, 'God loves me,' but haven't truly accepted it. When you know you are loved by Me, there is a great freedom, a joy, and a sense of 'No matter what happens to me, I will be OK.' My Son did not say the truth will set you free. He said, 'You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free' (John 8:32).

"You are greatly loved, more so than you could ever comprehend. Each of My children will enter their mansion (John 14:2) accepted in the Beloved (Ephesians 1:6). I have received you as a son/daughter, period. Stop looking at your imperfections and study My Word to see how much I love you (Romans 8:35-39). I think of you affectionately every day."

God Said: "Dwell on the Revelation that I Loved You First"

"There is this strong undercurrent in much of My Church that if you don't please Me in all that you do, then (you feel) in some way I simply don't love you like you think I would (because you had some kind of failure). Be careful, I am not saying you shouldn't be obedient or submit to Me and crucify your flesh. But, the work of sanctification is an ongoing process (2 Corinthians 3:17-18; Ephesians 5:26).

Yet no matter how much you do or not do for Me, I will love you the same—unequivocally. That doesn't mean you should be lazy, but who of you completely measures up? None of you, but that is why My Son came to die for you (Philippians 3:12)."

God Said: "The Devil Wants You to Think I Don't Completely Love You"

"Did you know that the devil can get you to think of a certain Scripture...to fool you? He tried it with My Son (Matthew 4:5-6), so he will try it with you. One of the Scriptures that he uses to condemn many of you is Revelation 2:4: "Nevertheless I have something against you, because thou hast left thy first love."

"In the two verses before this one, My Son highly compliments the Church for good works, patience, not putting up with evil people and for being strong and not fainting. But (and here is the truth many miss), you can work hard, be long suffering, resist evil, etc., and still miss the depth of My love for you. You see, I am not saying the fault is because you don't love me enough...My Son is saying, 'You don't know (or have forgotten) how much I love you!' He loves you first...and that is the first love! (1 John 4:19)."

God Said: "Dwell on My Son Being Your Husband, Not a Legalistic Tyrant"

"My prophet Hosea said, 'Therefore, behold, I will allure her, bring her into the wilderness and speak kindly to her. Then I will give her vineyards from there, and the valley of Achor as a door of hope. And she will sing there as in the days of her youth, as in the day when she came up from the land of Egypt. "It will come about in that day," declares the LORD, "that you will call Me husband, and will no longer call Me Baali (Master)"' (Hosea 2:14-16).

"Above all, My Son Jesus longs to be your Lover. Once you know you are loved, a great weight will be lifted, and then no matter what happens, you will always be convinced that I love you madly. Child, I will continue to love you. As you digest this great truth, then you will truly start to enter freedom and joy. You belong to Me and My Son, and we love you dearly. I loved you first. You will never be able to love Me more than I love you. So, just accept it. Once you do, you will automatically want to love Me back."

God Said: "Stop Feeling Guilty for Not Spending Quality Time with Me"

"Don't misunderstand; of course I want you to spend time with Me. But many think I am mad at them. So many of My children have simply forgotten how much I dearly love them. Instead of feeling guilty for not loving Me enough, firmly grasp how much I love you. Yes, some have distanced themselves from Me because of offences and false brethren, but they misunderstand that I have never stopped loving them (although My heart breaks and longs for them to return to Me).

"My greatest wish is for My children to get to the place where they grasp the revelation of the intense love I have for them. My love conquers everything (1 Corinthians 13). In the book of Galatians 2:6-9, My servant Paul speaks of Peter, James and John. If anyone had a special place in My heart it was these men.

"When My Son walked on earth they were His closest friends. Later they were called the pillars of the Church. Paul was speaking about Peter, and about all the leaders of the early Church, when inspired to write, 'Whatever they were, it makes no difference to me; God shows personal favoritism to no one.'

"I want you to tell yourself (some need to shout it, repeat it daily, and get it in their heart), 'The Bible says I am as loved and as important to God as Peter, James and John.' Never ask or think or doubt again how much I love you."

"Now, what did you say your problem was?"

Arise and Shine

Today hear God's voice through this message of hope. In the world today, the news is full of recession and all the connotations. While it is important to recognize the state of the economy, especially in the U.S., it is equally important to see what God has to say about it all.

Read this encouraging word from Mr. Sanford, and be encouraged, allow God to speak to you your role, for as the article states, "...We Believers should walk in unprecedented favor even as the world experiences a time of darkness..."

RL Sanford

R. Loren Sandford: "Sustaining Hope in the Midst - It's Our Time to Shine"

Most prophetic voices I have been hearing seem to be pronouncing much doom and gloom for the days to come. I have been among those who believe that these words are neither helpful nor entirely accurate. God is certainly not finished with America, nor has He ended its role in facilitating the spread of the Gospel in the world. We have entered a time of discipline and correction. While severe, it is indeed discipline and not yet destruction. I see hope on the horizon.

We're not going to collapse, although it may feel that way as we read the daily news. Time will tell who is right. But it's not a contest to see who is right and who is wrong. It's about hope and what that means to Believers. It's about what we're called to do and what we're called to be in times such as these. These things are spelled out for us in the Scriptures and do not change with the times or the circumstances. The prophetic word during this current period of history should bring hope and purpose to God's people to strengthen them for the days ahead.

We Believers should walk in unprecedented favor even as the world experiences a time of darkness, much as Daniel rose to favor and authority under Nebuchadnezzar and as Joseph rose under Pharaoh. They walked with servant hearts to bless the unrighteous kings who ruled over them and garnered favor and position in return. Joseph even used his wisdom and his spiritual gifts to save Egypt from the ancient equivalent of a major economic depression—seven years of famine. For us, the promise of God stands unchanged and calls for our response:

"Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you. For behold, darkness will cover the earth and deep darkness the peoples; but the LORD will rise upon you and His glory will appear upon you. Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising."—Isaiah 60:1-3

Darkness may cover the earth around us, but God's favor and light rest upon us. This can and should be a time of great ingathering of souls. It's our time to shine.

Forever Greet the Dawn"

On January 8 of this year, the Lord called me to forgo attending the Thursday morning prayer meeting I am normally committed to in order to devote myself to private prayer. The following Scripture is what He told me:

"The oracle concerning Edom. One keeps calling to me from Seir, 'Watchman, how far gone is the night? Watchman, how far gone is the night?' The watchman says, 'Morning comes but also night. If you would inquire, inquire; come back again.'"—Isaiah 21:11-12

These words were spoken prior to 722 B.C. as Assyria conquered the region around the northern kingdom of Israel. It was a time of disaster, destruction and desperation. The prophet used the image of the night watchman watching over the city as others slept to communicate a truth. People figuratively cried out, "Is it nearly over?" And the answer was that morning is imminent but the night lingers, so keep asking and "come back again," because the answer will be changing as dawn approaches.

For the current situation, is the night over? Will the end of the current darkness come quickly? Answer: Recovery (the dawn) will begin—I believe, by mid-year—but dark times will linger. As in the moments before the dawn, dark and light, recovery and loss will remain mixed for a time. Therefore keep asking and inquiring of the Lord because things will be changing steadily, like light coming over the horizon gradually in the morning. We'll need to be alert and listening for the Lord's voice in order to move with Him.

The Lord then spoke to me directly the following word:

"Forever greet the dawn. I open a season of hope in the midst of darkness—seeds of hope to announce the day. I have dampened the hopes of many and drained the color from many faces that they may seek Me. I open doors of prosperity to those who seek My ways to guide their steps. I will increase their joy in the midst of trials."

And finally, He took me to Psalm 29, verses 1-2, "Ascribe to the LORD, O sons of the mighty, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to His name; worship the LORD in holy array."

And verses 10-11, "The LORD sat as King at the flood; yes, the LORD sits as King forever. The LORD will give strength to His people; the LORD will bless His people with peace."

This is a time to intensify our worship, to diligently focus on and celebrate the Lord's glory and strength, to reach out to those increasingly fearful in the world with power, signs and wonders—and to know beyond a shadow of a doubt that in the midst of the flood, He remains the sovereign King ruling over it. Do this and He will strengthen us and grant us peace in the midst of turmoil.

Esthers will Now Arise!

Today we hear God through this timely word for all the women of God who struggle to hear God's voice and struggle more with their own role in the body of Christ. Coming on the heels of the Jewish Feast of Purim, women of God, take heart.

As John Mark Pool presents here, "...The Bible is filled with mighty women of destiny that broke the culture of strict eastern doctrines to become the leaders God chose. Today, do not allow the old religious "Haman spirits" of the past to control your God-given destiny!.."

Read on and be encouraged in your God given role - whether man or woman, God does talk to you - TODAY!

Esthers will Now Arise! by John Mark Pool

"When Esther was taken to King Xerxes at the royal palace in early winter of the seventh year of his reign, the king loved her more than any of the other young women. He was so delighted with her that he set the royal crown on her head and declared her queen instead of Vashti." Esther 2:16-17

John Mark and Sandy Pool

This is a day when God is especially reversing all the destinies of the women of God that the enemy wanted to hold back. The "Vashtis" are being replaced now by those handmaidens of the Lord who are prepared for this very moment of destiny in their lives. The King is placing His Royal Crown on you as Queen of the Land, and now you are replacing the enemy who overplayed her hand (as Vashti represents)!

With the celebration of the Feast of Purim, God is now taking the daring ladies of destiny to new promotions to rule and reign in the Kingdom of God as never before! Esthers, the end-time handmaidens of God, you are to arise and assume your role and destiny as never before! Do not be intimidated by the "accuser of the brethren" who wants you to believe God must do this calling through a man or any other person or source! This day, God is breaking off the "Hamans of gender prejudice" off the Church.

Get into your proper place of God's authority (and not human manipulation of Scriptures to cancel your destiny) as a mighty woman of God! You are made for this hour and this is the time to move into the scepter of favor for what God had designed for you before the foundations of this earth. A few Scriptures of "gender rendering" do not make an entire theological practice. Most of these Scriptures were indeed used for a local assembly with women being instructed for that moment in culture and specific moment in history. The Bible is filled with mighty women of destiny that broke the culture of strict eastern doctrines to become the leaders God chose. Today, do not allow the old religious "Haman spirits" of the past to control your God-given destiny!

I decree now in the Name of the Most High God:

Esthers of anointing, your time of God's (the King's) promotion is now! This is a day of new appointing for the handmaidens of God to come forth and replace the old Vashti throne. This is the day that you are handpicked by the King to transform the laws of man into the Kingdom of His dear Son, Messiah-Jesus Christ, to go into all the provinces (world), declaring that the salvation of the people has been secured! You, the new Queens of the Kingdom of God, will have continual favor to see the laws of religion, causing death to His called, superseded now by the law of mercy and grace!

Ladies of anointing, this is also your day to fulfill your calling that will indeed bring forth the promotions of the "Mordecais" in the Kingdom. Mordecai was Esther's discreet cousin and her pivotal person who saw all she did, and he sent and received messages of magnitude maintaining the apostolic focus for the prophetic fulfillment for Esther to reign as God designed. Men of God, hear today that our Esthers will cause God to trouble those in charge to not sleep, but to check and notice what had been omitted in the official records.

Mordecais will Come Forth as Esthers are Released!

Men of God, if we will lose our "male ego" and foolish pride, we will be transformed into the Godly character to release our Esthers to their rightful place in ministry as we are stationed in strategic discreet positions to expose the spirits that would try to depose our Esther appointments. Men, we must support the Esthers in our lives and see them move into the favor and destiny of their lives. Men of anointing, we will never be placed in our full calling if we are not further established with the support of these "Queens of Royalty!" The "Haman Gallows" are now transformed into the Cross of Calvary. In the physical and in the supernatural, God has and will always take care of His chosen Israel. We continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but this is about the entire Kingdom of God, today!

It is a great demonstration in the book of Esther where the term "Jew" was mentioned, because it represents another moment in history where the evil Lucifer spirit was shut down from destroying the Jewish lineage of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, to be birthed into this earth! Also, observe how much this relates to many times throughout Bible history where the enemy was crouched as a dragon to destroy God's great plan of salvation that is commemorated just ahead in our paramount Easter Celebration—the Lion of the Tribe of Judah prevails forever!

Hamans Gallows are Turned into the Cross of Calvary

We are not to gloat over hanging our Hamans from the Old Testament gallows, but to view this in our age of grace, as the place where sin is placed at the foot of the Cross of Calvary. Today, allow our Haman gallows to become the Cross of Calvary that takes all the human struggles of our carnal ways to be buried with Christ as we become alive with the new resurrection power of the grace and mercy of our Messiah, Jesus Christ, who took all that sin debt for us! Wow! I just feel the men of God being free to release all the efforts of the flesh to find their identity.

Now we died with Christ and have been resurrected by that awesome identity of the Father in the view of His Son. Mordecais will now become secure in their identity, just resting in the fact that their Esthers are moving only in the anointing God has called them to! This is a vital release and anointing in this strategic season of our Feast of Purim in 2009.

Understand that my wife Sandy is now traveling with me and has all my ministry backing and authority to minister however God chooses to use her—no matter what is required. I literally mean that if I am to sit out and allow her to preach, teach, prophesy, pray or whatever God chooses, she is released by my willing heart to accomplish from this day forward, whatever God wants her to fulfill for her life to further God's Kingdom!

Furthermore, we work as a team. This stops the enemy as we release the women of anointing in our lives to fulfill all that God has called them to do. God calls everyone to a specific assignment whether or not they ever enter a pulpit to preach. All are called to perform many valuable functions to build His Church and enlarge God's Kingdom. We must pray and ask God to completely annihilate the remaining threads of "gender prejudice" in the Church.

March is a very pivotal month this year of Tet, 2009 (Hebrew calendar 5769), for the women of anointing. This is the time to decree and see the Esthers of God's anointed women to move into their forefront of Kingdom destiny for royalty. We decree and declare today and forever: "Esthers Arise! Take your rightful royal office with the King of kings!"

Today and beyond, our Esthers are arising from this Feast of Purim!

Always a voice for God,

God Gives Wisdom to Those Who Ask

As we read today's encouraging word on God's wisdom, and a reminder to ask for it, the Bible references are a great aid in our quest. We should always, without ceasing, ask for wisdom of God. Desire to be like David's son, and as Robert Ricciardelli puts it so eloquently, "...Leading without His wisdom, His understanding, is absolutely fruitless. We face many choices daily. When we choose with His leading, His wisdom and understanding, it goes well with us..."

Read on and be encouraged this day, and every day, as you ask for His Guidance.

Robert Ricciardelli: "Lacking Wisdom? Just Ask!"

"If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and He will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking."
James 1:5

There was a young man, who, once long ago, grew up in a wealthy household. He had all the luxuries of wealth. He also grew up in the fear and knowledge of the Lord. He was not ensnared by many of the trappings of wealth as he was taught from a very young age, the virtues of God. As the young man grew, he finally replaced his father David on the throne of the family kingdom. Because he was taught well and knew the God of His father David, he began to talk to God often as a new king. The Lord loved his heart and his communication and wanted to bless him with any desire of his choosing.

This new king could have asked for endless wealth or long life, but instead he asked for wisdom. He asked the Lord for help in ruling the people with godly wisdom and understanding.

Are We Asking for His Wisdom?

As I look at myself and other leaders around the globe, who are stewarding resources and our very lives for Father God, the great question is: Are we asking the Father for the right and most proper thing a leader can lead with, His wisdom?

The reality is—how can we not ask of this if we truly want to be ambassadors and lead well for the glory of God? Leading without His wisdom, His understanding, is absolutely fruitless. We face many choices daily. When we choose with His leading, His wisdom and understanding, it goes well with us.

When we are lacking in His wisdom and discernment, it often is disastrous. It's disastrous because lives are being led in a wrongful focus or direction. It's disastrous because Father's provision and resources, that are meant to build His Kingdom Church, are being squandered in self-glorifying ways. It's disastrous because those who do not know the Father are watching the foolish lead in ways that do not promote the King or His Kingdom justly.

Here are some directives we must WILLINGLY pursue if we want His Wisdom activated in our lives:

  • Value Wisdom beyond perceived needs and wants.

  • Allow His ways and wisdom to overwhelm our ways and mans wisdom.

  • Learn from our mistakes.

  • Learn ways to impart wisdom to others.

  • Check our own heart first for wisdom before the hearts of others.

  • Build relationships with those who operate in wisdom.

  • Meditate on the Word of God regarding the wisdom He has for you through His Spirit, and ask the Father to remove barriers to operating in His wisdom for your life.

Some Things to Remember:

"Surely you desire truth in the inner parts; you teach me wisdom in the inmost place." Psalm 51:6

"God gave Solomon wisdom and very great insight, and a breadth of understanding as measureless as the sand on the seashore." 1 Kings 4:29

"Joyful is the person who finds wisdom, the one who gains understanding. For wisdom is more profitable than silver, and her wages are better than gold. Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her.

"She offers you long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left. She will guide you down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying. Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly." Proverbs 3:13-18

"The reverent fear and worship of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and skill, [the preceding and the first essential, the prerequisite and the alphabet]; a good understanding, wisdom, and meaning have all those who do [the will of their Lord]. Their praise of Him endures forever." Psalm 111:10

"Teach us to realize the brevity of life, so that we may grow in wisdom." Psalm 90:12

"The life-giving Spirit of God will hover over Him, the Spirit that brings wisdom and understanding, the Spirit that gives direction and builds strength, the Spirit that instills knowledge and Fear-of-God. Fear-of-God will be all His joy and delight.

"He won't judge by appearances, won't decide on the basis of hearsay. He'll judge the needy by what is right, render decisions on earth's poor with justice. "His words will bring everyone to awed attention. A mere breath from His lips will topple the wicked. Each morning He'll pull on sturdy work clothes and boots, and build righteousness and faithfulness in the land." Isaiah 11:2-5

End Time Visitation of God Coming - Are You Ready?

As we continue to hear God talking, this word given less than a month ago brings encouragement to the body of Christ. As Dr. Chironna states, God is "...looking for those who are young in spirit, for there is a new generation that is about to cross a line and cross a threshold and operate in a dimension.

"They will go with Me on a journey to discover earmarks that are in the Spirit – places of lodging, places of power, places of deliverance, places of blessing. For in the heavenly realms, I have stored up treasures that when they go in, they will bind the strongman and reclaim the goods that he took from My people over these past generations..."

Discover for yourself where you stand in this promised visitation of God. Prepare for a "...double portion anointing that will stagger the minds of the unregenerate and they will walk in the wisdom and in the understanding and the knowledge of the Most High God..."

Read on and be encouraged allow God to speak to you.



Mark Chironna: "There is a Great End-Time Visitation Coming - It is Almost Upon Us

Prophetic word of the Lord given by Dr. Mark Chironna on Sunday, January 25, 2009 at The Master's Touch International Church in Longwood, Florida:

When the Student is Ready, the Teacher Shows Up

When the anointing is on you, sacrifice is no big deal. When you understand the anointing, you can bring closure to a chapter in your life that's remained open for too long. When you understand the anointing and you operate in the anointing, it's not a problem to distribute your resources. And when you understand the worth of the anointing, it's not hard to follow after it and pursue it with all your heart.

God Almighty is preparing a generation for a rich legacy that is about to be passed – we are at the end of a five hundred year period. What is about to come on the Body of Christ will rival what took place in the Great Reformation. God has been restoring for the last two thousand years, well the last thousand years, to the Church what has been lost. You are the sons of the prophets. You are the seed of Abraham. Every blessing in the covenant to possess Heaven and Earth, to move in dominion, to move in increase, to move in the fullness of the Spirit – is yours.

"Holy Spirit of God, Holy Spirit of God, come right now – overshadow." Here it comes. Just let it blanket you. Just let it soak you. Position yourself. Align yourself for that greater anointing. The fullness of the Spirit, the fullness of Him who fills all in all; the anointing that breaks the yoke, not just in the meeting place but it will break the yoke in your home. It will break the yoke on your job. It will remove the curse from your destiny and from your career, from your vocation. It will remove the yoke from relationships that are draining you. It will bring deliverance.

You are an heir. You are an heir of God. You are a joint heir with Christ. That double portion, that promise of the Father, the greatness of the call, the power of resurrection – we are about to embark on a season in which there will be such great difference between the light and the dark that you will be able to know, "These are the people that walk with God."

There is a great end-time visitation coming; it is almost upon us. I can hear the sound of an abundance of rain. God Almighty is grooming a company to move in power and practicality to reach the culture and to bring increase and expansion – the provision of God, more sufficient than any natural provision could ever be; the blessing of the Lord that makes rich and adds no sorrow.

"I Am Looking for Those Who are Young in Spirit"

"For these are days," saith God, "when I am stirring up the spirit of another generation and it matters not their age; it matters the age of their spirit. For there are many who are old but young in their spirit and there are many who are young but they have become old in their spirit. I am looking for those who are young in spirit, for there is a new generation that is about to cross a line and cross a threshold and operate in a dimension.

"They will go with Me on a journey to discover earmarks that are in the Spirit – places of lodging, places of power, places of deliverance, places of blessing. For in the heavenly realms, I have stored up treasures that when they go in, they will bind the strongman and reclaim the goods that he took from My people over these past generations.

"There is coming a great shift. It is going to come globally on the Body of Christ and there is going to arise a company of people that will be delivered from their past and rescued for their future and they will operate in a double portion anointing that will stagger the minds of the unregenerate and they will walk in the wisdom and in the understanding and the knowledge of the Most High God.

"And every place they go, they will transform the environment. They will bring blessing and they will leave blessing behind them. They will cause dark places to become light. They will cause brown places and barren places to become well-watered like a garden. They will cause broken places to be healed. They will cause sick places to be made well.

"For they are the people of Jehovah and their vindication is from God. For there is coming a great vindication because of the great warfare. From the great warfare, there is coming great vindication and great blessing.

"Rejoice, for your hour is coming and is now upon you when you will begin to see the goodness of God in the land of the living," saith the Lord.
