Being Filled by God

This word today is an encouraging word if you have ever found yourself, as Keith Miller, at the place where you want to actually WALK OUT God's word for you. Read on and be encouraged as you seek to be filled with spiritual understanding!

Keith Miller: "Be Filled with Spiritual Understanding!"

I believe God is releasing both a Spirit of understanding and wisdom from some of our past visitations and impartations and bringing new impartation. I'm in the place where I don't just want to know God's prophetic word; I want to walk it out! With Him are wisdom and strength, He has counsel and understanding (Proverbs 8:14).

Isaiah 11:2 says the Spirit of the Lord came upon Him, and the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. And the kind of understanding God is talking about is a river of understanding, not just a small stream.

Do you want to build your life according to Heaven's blueprint? Do you want to be a wise master builder? "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6).

Do you want the Lord to burn up the wood, hay, and stubble of your life so you can offer Him the pure silver and gold? I don't want to trust in my own understanding, I want the Lord to direct my paths. From this day on, say, I'm going to press in. I want wisdom and understanding for my life. I don't want to operate in a measure, but an increase from glory to glory.

This Spirit of understanding comes in many forms. In Exodus 35:34, you'll find that the Spirit of wisdom and understanding will give you that ability to teach. Remember, it's not you, but Him. The best teaching flows out of the anointing—that way it won't dull the ears because it won't be powerless, it'll be powerful!

God wants to open up a river of understanding of the things that He has spoken to you for your ministry, for your family, for all areas of your life. I know that you have something burning in you, but you can't articulate it. God will impart the Spirit of understanding to you and bring understanding of the words and visions He has already placed inside of you! The words that have been spoken by God into your life are being imparted to your inner man.

The Spirit of Understanding Gives Clarity and Boldness

The Spirit of understanding gives clarity. Colossians 1:9 says, "For this reason we also, from the day we heard of it, have not ceased to pray and make [special] request for you, [asking] that you may be filled with the full (deep and clear) knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom [in comprehensive insight into the ways and purposes of God] and in understanding and discernment of spiritual things." (AMP)

Paul didn't say, Get more information! He said, I'm going to pray for you to receive knowledge, wisdom and understanding. He said, I do not cease to pray for you, to ask that you may be filled. I want to walk in spiritual understanding, to walk out what the Lord has spoken to me. God is bringing forth the Spirit of understanding, filling us with the knowledge of His will.

...in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.—Colossians 1:9b-10

It's not fumbling and hoping, it is God. It's authority and confidence. The disciples, in the Book of Acts, said they wanted to know God's predetermined will before the foundations of the earth so that they could speak with boldness. They didn't want to just speak the word; they wanted to know what they were talking about! The word boldness is confidence!

When We Walk in the Spirit of Understanding, We Please God and Become Fruitful in Every Good Work

When we walk in the Spirit of understanding, we walk fully pleasing the Lord, being fruitful in every good work because we are not walking in our own understanding—we're walking in His understanding, and it releases authority! And wherever you're from and whatever you do, God wants to remove all limitations and do something through your life that demonstrates His power!

We need the Spirit of understanding, don't we?

When God imparts understanding it comes to your inner man. Ephesians 1:18 says it causes the eyes of your understanding to be illuminated. You know what that means? Awakened, understanding, the hope of your call, and your inheritance. It causes a confidence and a holy boldness. Isaiah 32:15-17 says when the Holy Spirit is poured out from on high, you dwell in that quiet assurance.

A few years ago I was in a meeting, and as I watched the speaker I thought he was one of the most arrogant persons I'd ever heard. And all of a sudden I heard the Lord say, "You call that pride? I call it confidence, and what you've been calling humility has been a stench to my nostrils."

God wants us to operate in boldness and confidence! We are plugged right into the best Connection; we are getting our information from the best possible Source! We are receiving understanding from the One who can just speak a word and change the whole world. That should give us confidence. If God is for us, who can be against us?

It's Time for Us to Become the Light on the Hill that Raises Up a Standard

This new season you are going into, you are not going in blind. God is going to give you the Spirit of understanding with strategies and clarity. The Spirit of understanding, it breaks off fear! Jesus operated in both the Spirit of understanding and the Spirit of wisdom. Even as a 12-year-old boy He had more understanding and wisdom than the learned Pharisees and Sadducees. When they heard Him, they marveled at His understanding. His understanding greatly exceeded theirs. He was blowing their minds.

It is time for us to become the light on the hill that raises up a standard. It's not by our ability but by being connected into the Spirit of understanding. It is through understanding that authority is released. Don't you want to get plugged in like that? You can!

Happy is the man who finds wisdom, and the man who gains understanding—Proverbs 3:13

Mt St Helen's Volcano Set to Erupt?

As I browse for more of what God has to say to us in these times, I find an article that caught my eye on volcanic eruptions on the west coast of Canada and the Unites States. Mt. St. Helen's eruptions brewing?

The link to the article in Breaking Christian News takes us to the website of News Scientist telling us of the super volcano that may be brewing. The article points out the possibility of a new eruption. But, as Breaking Christian News author Teresa Neumann points out, ..."
Jesus said, "And when the south wind blows, you say, 'It's going to be hot,' and it is...You know how to interpret the appearance of the earth and the sky. How is it that you don't know how to interpret this present time?" - Luke 12:55-57. If volcanic activity is a spiritual type of the Church in the northwest, as many say, what does this portend? A really great revival, I hope!..."

Read the full article from the world perspective, and from the Christian perspective. Hear God talking through the news scientist. And rejoice, God talks through many outlets.

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.

Prayer of Release

Today, in our quest to hear God talking, we turn to Paul Cox. In his ministries through the years, Paul Cox has assisted many in ridding themselves of generational curses. These prayers we have today are some powerful words for us, and the Scriptures that follow are designed to assist us in our quest to rid ourselves of every hindrance to our hearing God's voice.


Paul Cox: "Prayer of Release from Chronic Physical, Mental, and Spiritual Disorders"

Paul CoxLord, I repent and renounce and I ask You to forgive me and my generational line for coming into agreement with gossip, slander, critical judgment, envy, strife, holding offenses, accusation, and jealousy.

Lord, I repent for myself and those in my generational line who came against You by lying, denying You, speaking accusations against You, conceiving and uttering falsehoods from the heart, speaking oppression and revolt, and entering into witchcraft.

Lord, I ask You to break the generational curse and agreement when accusations came into the generational line. Lord, I break and renounce assignments and agreements with any lying spirit and the generational curse resulting from that.

I ask Your forgiveness, Lord, and I repent on behalf of myself and my forefathers. I ask You to break the generational curse and loose a blessing. I choose to bring my spirit, soul, and body into agreement with the Spirit of Truth.

Lord, would You make null and void and cancel any reinforcement of curses and their assignments in their allotted time. Lord, would you disconnect me from all ungodly heavenly places. Lord, will You now seat me in Your heavenly places.

Lord, I repent and ask forgiveness for operating in an independent spirit when I came into agreement with gossip, slander, accusation and walked away from You and the Body of Christ, causing disunity and isolation in the Body of Christ. Today, I choose by Your mercy to be reconciled and to be restored into the unity of Your Body.

Lord, I repent for coming into agreement with slander that has been spoken against me and receiving the offenses and not blessing my enemy.

Lord, I ask that I not conceive trouble. Please destroy the viper and spider eggs that have been placed into me—slander, hatred, self-rejection and gossip. May no adders or spiders be allowed to come forth from this generation forward.

Lord, would you remove all cobwebs of false clothing and nesting places that may be covering my body. Lord, will you also remove the cobwebs of false identity from my body and soul and remove all deception that clouds my perception of my true identity. And where my past generations and I have allowed the enemy to weave within me a web of false identity, coming into agreement with this illness as who I am, forgive me for gaining my identity from diseases and not from You.

Release me, for You wove me in my mother's womb and I agree that I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Lord, give me Your revelation of my true identity in Christ, which I now receive.

Lord, would You completely restore my ability to receive all that I need from You including healing, revelation, and restoration of my spirit, soul, and body.

Lord, I forgive the Body of Christ for reacting in judgment and rejection against those who are being wounded by witchcraft and curses that are being empowered and reinforced over time.

Lord, forgive me for making bitter root judgments against those who have harmed me in any way. I forgive the Body of Christ for not accepting, understanding and protecting me.

Lord, I choose to forgive those who have rejected me and who, in doing so, have further empowered the curses already against me.

Lord, forgive me and my generational line for not having the strength to resist the enemy's assault on my mind day and night, and therefore accepting the feeling of helplessness in stopping this demonic flow.

Lord, would You renew my mind so that I can have Your mind and know that I can take every thought captive to the Lord Jesus Christ, and to know that You are my sure defense and that I am safe in the shelter of Your wings.

Lord, I ask You to raise up a standard based upon Ephesians 4:31 and remove all effects of bitterness, rage, anger, brawling, and slander along with every form of malice. Lord, break off all generational curses, the reinforcement of curses in their allotted times in all heavenly places, and all spiritual, mental, and physical retribution. Lord, please protect those who repent and turn from their generational sin, witchcraft, and idolatry.

Lord, would You realign with Your purpose and heal the receptors of the cells that make up my being so my divine calling and destiny will be fulfilled.

I receive the promise that I am no longer a prey of the enemy. You are my Shepherd. You feed me and I receive Your covenant of peace that I may dwell safely. I choose to be a blessing around Your Holy hill and receive the showers of blessings You promise in season, that there would be fruitfulness and increase in my life.

I know that the bands of the yoke are broken and I am delivered from the hands and words of those who have made me a prey. I know that I belong to You and You are with me. I embrace my restoration within the Body of Christ and the restoration of receptor sites of my own body.

Lord, thank You for considering my cause and my affliction and delivering me and my generations—past, present, and future—for I do not forget Your law. Lord, thank You for pleading my cause through the generations and reviving me and my family line according to Your Word. Because I trust You, Lord, I am like Mt. Zion which cannot be moved but abides forever.

So I thank You, Lord, for delivering me and my family generations—past, present, and future. Thank You for redeeming me and reviving me and my family line throughout the generations according to Your Word. For as the mountains surround Jerusalem, so You, Lord, surround me and my family generations—past, present, and future from this time forth and forever.

Thank You, Lord, that the scepter of wickedness shall not rest on the land allotted to the righteous, because the entirety of Your Word is Truth and every one of Your righteous judgments endures forever. Lord, thank You for restoring the Scepter of Righteousness.

Lord, will You forgive me and my generational line for closing the doors of Your anointing and blessing. Lord, will you now bless me and open the doors of Your anointing and blessing and release the generational blessings, gifts, callings and goodness that my generational line did not receive.

Reaching God Through Prayer

As we read today's encouraging word on the power of our prayers to God, realize that we do have the atomic power to break down the enemy's encampment, take back what he has stolen from us, and, as Dr. Cindy Trimm states here, "...achieve our goals in accelerated fashion..."

God is talking to us, and in this season we are encouraged to blast through to hear him, using prayer and fasting together like never before. As the article states, "...This is a season which you should be reinforcing your prayer life with fasting. Prayers that are released by faith and through fasting are like missiles..." Read on and be encouraged to break through to God.

Cindy Trimm: "The Atomic Power of Prayer"

In this season, your prayers will also cause acceleration. You will receive supernatural empowerment to accomplish many things, to progress, to advance and to achieve your goals in an accelerated fashion. What would normally take you a year to accomplish, God will supernaturally allow you to accomplish in a month.

Nehemiah, through prayer, rebuilt the walls of Jerusalem in record breaking time. Get ready to break some records and to defy odds. I encourage you to continue to bombard Heaven with breakthrough prayers. Let them explode like atomic bombs within the enemy's camp.

I decree and declare that you will experience breakthrough shortly. Do not give up on your dreams. Your worst days are behind you. Your best days and blessed days lay ahead of you. Indeed the best is yet to come. I decree that as you break through, your glass ceilings will become wooden floors.

Fasting and Prayer Activate Us

This is a season which you should be reinforcing your prayer life with fasting. Prayers that are released by faith and through fasting are like missiles and take on the form of spiritual atomic bombs, causing nuclear-type explosions in the realms of Heaven and Earth. Matthew 17:21 says, "Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting."

Blast your way into victory over the attacks of the enemy. Ascend into the realm of power. The higher you go in God, the more dangerous you become to the enemy. As you pray, show no mercy to the enemy and take no prisoners! Lift your voice and unleash the atomic power of prayer.

The atomic bomb began as a concept and idea. Einstein postulated that if the atom is split, it would create tremendous exponential energy. Like an atomic bomb, God's power has been split between Heaven and Earth. While He maintains power over the heavens, according to Psalm 115:13-16, He has given man power and dominion over the earth realm.

Psalm 115:13-16 clearly states, "He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great. The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children. Ye are blessed of the LORD which made Heaven and Earth. The Heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S: but the Earth hath he given to the children of men."

Prayer is one of the ways this power is activated. Bombard the heavens and use it as a spiritual nuclear weapon against the enemy. Religion has held all the power within the pulpit. But in this season, the power will be split between the pulpit and the pew. We are about to experience spiritual nuclear explosions with:

· Miracle fall-outs

· Deliverance fall-outs

· Healing fall-outs

· Prosperity fall-outs

· Family deliverance fall-outs

· Salvation fall-outs

· Breakthrough fall-outs

Blast Your Way into Victory

I have been blessed to befriend Einstein's grandson who continues his family's legacy of research. I declare that as you implement your prayer strategy, you will leave a legacy of prayer that is perpetuated for generations to come. Breakthrough has to be pursued. You must prevail over territorial spirits in order to possess your possessions.

In the book of 2 Samuel 23:13-16, we read of David's quest to quench his thirst. He had a divine desire for that which God had prepared for him before the foundation of the world:

"And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim. And David was then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem.

"And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate! And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David."

In this text, the enemies of David had set up a barricade to prevent him from getting what really belonged to him. His military generals broke through and blasted their way through barricades in order to confiscate that which belonged to David from the hands of the enemy.

This is a season when the Body of Christ will blast their way into victory. The enemy has illegally seized many of our possessions and must be made to give them back. He will not give them up until you demand it. You must learn how to pound at the gates of the enemy and demand that he gives up what he has stolen. He is a thief and must release what rightfully belongs to you. Tell the devil, "this is not a threat; I intend to use my atomic weapon of prayer."

Be encouraged. May the hand of God be upon you today and forever. As 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says, "Pray without ceasing!"

God Talks Through The Prophet Kim Clement

Kim Clement speaking at the end of last month in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on what he hears God going to do. Read for yourself and rejoice, for God is talking to this prophet, and promises "...an unusual turn of events with farmers...America...I am determined to rescue you. And it shall not be by the hands of the Democrats, nor shall it will not be at the hands of the Republicans, but it shall be in the hands of those that are righteous and that have My light. Your enemies will be subdued," says the Lord..."

Read the full article and rejoice at all God has promised for America!


"Watch, There will be an Unusual Turn of Events with Farmers -
On Ranches and Farms"

The following was prophesied on January 30, 2009 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma:Kim Clement

The Spirit of the Lord says, "Do you hear what the prophets are saying? Do you hear the dictations from Heaven? Can you hear how the nations have endeavored to rise up? And now they have said, 'With this present leader we will come and we will snuff them out.'"

But God said, "Have they forgotten that My light has come to this nation in the middle of the night? For the prophetic word is like a light that shines in a dark place, in the kingdom of darkness. In the Kingdom of Light there is no darkness."

"Watch, There will be an Unusual Turn of Events with Farmers"

And God said, "Tonight I speak to you as a nation from Oklahoma City, a soil where tears have been shed, where blood has been shed, for the glory of this nation. My glory will once again fill, but now I'm about to do the most unusual things that I've ever done. They will say, 'We have never heard of such things happening.'"

America looked as if it was going to plunge into the pits of despair, but God says, "It shall not be so. For I am determined to rescue you. And it shall not be by the hands of the Democrats, nor shall it will not be at the hands of the Republicans, but it shall be in the hands of those that are righteous and that have My light. Your enemies will be subdued," says the Lord.

Watch, there will be an unusual turn of events with farmers. God said, "There will be unusual revivals and moves of the Spirit in the places where there are ranches and farms. They will go out and they will say, 'In this desolate place God is moving in a big way.'"

Where there is wheat, God is moving. Where there are vineyards, God is moving. And they will look to the cities and say, "What of the cities?" But they will ashamedly look to the little towns and the villages, and they will say, "It's happening there." And they will say, "Even with the Okies, it's happening there."

For you see, for the Lord says, "I came and I spread My garments in the great cities of this nation. And the oxen that were driven and that were driving the Ark of the Covenant started to stumble, and men tried to control what God wanted."

God says, "I am not to be controlled, and when I move I must be left alone. It shall be like a wildfire, and men shall come, and they shall come and say, 'Let us go to the small towns that we've heard of, the villages, where there are no longer kings in charge but the sons of the kings and the sons of the prophets.'"

For God said, "I'm raising up a group of people, a guild, where there will be priests and prophets and it shall be as in the days of old where there shall be shouters."

You see, when King Saul went to the little village of Ramah and met with Samuel the prophet, Saul was a little man in his own sight, but a large man—head and shoulders above everybody. And in that little place, Samuel anointed him as the king. But Saul could not believe it, as the little villages and the towns of this nation cannot believe that they can contain it, "But they are precious to Me."

And so God says to you, "As Samuel said to Saul, 'You must now go on a journey and you must meet a group of prophets that are coming from the high place. They will be with tambourines and with harps and you will prophesy with them and be turned into another man.'"

God says, "I want your house, I want the houses of farmers and village people to be opened up to where college students can come and receive of the God that is about to appear in these towns and villages in the United States," says the Spirit of God.

Army of God Mobilized

Gos is talking today to Chuck Pierce, and his article here shows the army of God bringing up the Reserves to assist those who have grown weary on the front lines of battle, lest they go AWOL.

As Chuck states, "...The mind, heart, emotions, and well-being of the soul are intricately connected. Usually the enemy's goal in persecution is not to "burn us at the stake." To persecute actually means to wear down your mind and remove your strength to disable you from having the right connected thought process for success and prosperity in days of turmoil. The heart thinks! Therefore, if the enemy can bombard you with thoughts that produce fear and anxiety, he can then remove your ability to manifest the will of God in your life. The pure in heart see God..."

Caught up in a vision, Chuck heard God talking, saw a sight of the army of God that he reveals to us God's plans for our future. Read and study this message today, there is much to hear God's voice within.

Chuck Pierce: "I Saw a Vision of the Triumphant Reserve that was Being Held for a Time Such as This"

Dear Changing Army:

This month we are concentrating on Creativity in Space and Time! If ever we need to understand that creative part of us, now is the time! I have just completed the book, Redeeming the Times: Get Your Life Back on Track with the God of Second Opportunities. In this book I explain what the Lord called "The Triumphant Reserve."

The Lord has given me a window to write this month. Your prayers are so valuable to keep the Heavens open so I hear what the Spirit is speaking to the Church! Also, I am writing a small booklet on the Triumphant Reserve to help us understand how we each fit within God's plan for this season.

A Vision: "The Triumphant Reserve!"

The Triumphant Reserve! This is a phrase that I want you to get used to. When the Lord caught me up into a realm of vision on May 31, 2008 at Liberty Park, New Jersey, the Spirit of the Lord showed me the time frame in which He would work with this nation and other nations to produce fruit for the future. When I was looking down into the land, there were layers of darkness.

I could see many areas, the glory realms of the earth, that were captured by darkness. I saw how God would have to change entire structures before He could bring forth the harvest for the future. I could see evil root systems planted in the land. I could see evil root systems in my own bloodline based upon land structures that had never been dealt with.

The Lord said, "My people are trying to manage their households and now I am going to have to cause the roots of the land to be pulled up and jarred. Therefore, you will again manage what I assign you, but this will be My time of uprooting. Allow Me to pull up evil structures. Manage what I am assigning you to manage while I am pulling up. Do not let your pride try to stop Me from pulling things up and out that need to be pulled up."

I saw a Triumphant Reserve that was being held for a "time such as this." Many had been on shelves, waiting, but now they were being called forth. Others were realigning in new ways so they could war with their destined tribe. The Spirit of God was calling forth His troops for this hour. The Spirit of God showed me this Reserve, their strength and position in each state in America. He then took me higher and showed me the Reserve and their war for the future in the nations of the earth, God's inheritance. He honored me by giving me a glimpse of the 153 sheep nations in the earth that the angels were contending over.

Relieve the Front Line!

God has a reserve! At our Starting the Year Off Right conference, I noticed something on the worship team. LeAnn Squier, who was sick during the conference, came as usual to the front line, but was limited in the strength she had to bring forth. John Dickson's voice began to struggle. I heard the Lord say, "Relieve the front line." I called forth others from the back to come to the front and sing forth prophetically, even though this was not their normal role, and they responded.

One person on the worship team began to pick up where another one was too tired to continue on. This became like tag team. Weary ones stepped back for a while and others took their places. The power of revelation never ebbed again. Heaven remained connected in the earth realm and "on Earth as it is in Heaven" kept occurring so we could walk victoriously throughout the year.

On the battlefield, many casualties can occur when troops get weary. Weariness can create mental passivity, breakdowns, people going AWOL (Absent Without Leave), and even suicide and death. I believe the Lord is telling us to watch out for those who are exhausted and help them step back and get rejuvenated. He will call you to help someone so they can refocus for their victory ahead and not be taken out by the enemy. He will show you who you are to relieve in service, helps, and ministry.

The Enemy Will Wear Down Your Mind!

In these days, we must remember Daniel 7. Daniel says, "As I looked, this horn made war with the saints and prevailed over them...And he shall speak words against the Most High (God) and shall wear out the saints of the Most High and think to change the time (of sacred feasts and holy days) and the law; and the saints shall be given into his hand for a time, two times, and half a time (three and one-half years)" (see also Revelation 13:1-9.)

The mind, heart, emotions, and well-being of the soul are intricately connected. Usually the enemy's goal in persecution is not to "burn us at the stake." To persecute actually means to wear down your mind and remove your strength to disable you from having the right connected thought process for success and prosperity in days of turmoil. The heart thinks! Therefore, if the enemy can bombard you with thoughts that produce fear and anxiety, he can then remove your ability to manifest the will of God in your life.

The pure in heart see God. If our mind is weary and our heart aches, then we lose the vision for our present and our future is captured. Do not allow the enemy to make you lose focus of your inheritance. Your inheritance is your portion. This is your vineyard! The enemy is in war over the "the earth being the Lord's and His fullness thereof"!

A Renewed Vineyard!

The Lord showed me this principle again as we began to study the vineyard. Every seven years the vineyard was to lay fallow. According to the rabbis, the land, the workers, and the animals were to rest. The people were to study the Word (Issachar-Torah) during that seventh year. This is a picture of dominion in the Messianic Kingdom! The seventh day Sabbath rest, the seventh year, the "seven times seven" or Jubilee, were all time sequences required for the new to manifest. This is also a "new wineskin" principle. A wineskin could become new by being soaked in water and then oiled for seven years. Declare that you are becoming new—in quality, strength, and vision.

There were "Rules of the Vine" formed in the Desert of Wilderness (see Deuteronomy 6:11, Leviticus 25:5-11). In the desert, the Lord gave Moses strategies and direction on how to prosper the vineyard. The fruit could not be eaten the first three years. The fourth year it had to be offered to the Lord (Judah principle to Praise the Lord). The fifth year the owner could PROSPER (see Mark 12:2).

Judah's life adapted to the vine (see Genesis 49:11). As we move forward to see the Tabernacle of David restored, we must understand the vine is being pruned. We must not be like the leaders who went into the Promised Land. These leaders, known as the spies, saw the bountiful grapes, cut them down, handled them and tasted them but would not go to war to possess the promise! Understanding "the cluster of the grapes" is key to understanding the anointing.

We Are Being Prepared!

The preparation phase of the vineyard is the most costly. The vineyard must be enclosed in a permanent fence or hedge. The large stones in the field must be removed. Once removed, these stones were placed in rows. The rows of stones were used to train the vines how to trail. This protected the fruit from dampness. This pictures the stones that we remove from our lives. If we will use those besetting sins and wrong structures properly, they can be what cause the fruit in our lives to multiply.

A winepress had to be hewn out on location. This was to prevent bruising of the fruit when being transferred. The taste and fullness of the grape was linked with the ground of origination. The place that you have been called this hour is important! Two troughs were hewn parallel to each other, one higher than the other. The first trough was for TRODDING, the second was for RECEIVING the juice. A WATCHTOWER was erected to watch and guard the vintage from thieves and jackals (see Isaiah 5:1-7).

The winepress was a place of triumph and overcoming. The vintage began in September with shouts of JOY! (See John 15:5-6.) People passing through had access to the grapes of the vineyard, but were forbidden to carry any away. God is preparing us for the same type of overcoming experiential joy.

Prophetic Word: "Protect Your Vineyard!"

There is a new call to watch the vineyard you have been given. Protect your vineyard from the many enemies that would rob you from seeing His blessing occur during this hour in your life! These enemies include: Dampness, Robbers, Intruders, Little Foxes, Moochers, Different Kinds of Seed being Sown, Decay, Waste and finally, Jezebel and Ahab! Political structures could rob you of your inheritance this hour.

Before I was to lead prayer a couple of weeks ago, the Spirit spoke to me and said:

"Protect your vineyard! Get it clear, plowed up and ready to plant. I am removing one hedge to build another. Ask Me to remove the seeds that will produce wild grapes, rebellious structures, and iniquitous thrones in your portion that you have been allotted. Be a watchman over your portion. I am watching over the earth and reviewing My plan of fullness.

"I am changing the horizon line of My People! Their vision must shift to see what I am seeing. There are enemies in the land that I must now address or the land will be overtaken and its productivity for the next three generations lost.

"I AM going deep to pull up roots that will produce rebellion in days ahead. My People will be revolutionary in a time of lawless rebellion! Declare that the uprooting has begun in your house, your land, and the industry you are part of. Thank Me for the uprooting of seeded, twisted, unfruitful systems and structures that could prevent My Kingdom People from becoming radiant in the future.

"I am passing out new assignments! I am causing you to hear what I am assigning you to. Some will be assigned to nations. Others will be assigned to kingdoms, others to companies, others to churches and others to cities. I will assign some to one person. He or she will open up your future as you pray for them. New assignments are coming this hour." (Ask God to get you ready and positioned for new assignments.)

"See the fields I am calling you to. Many will be called, placed and planted in new fields. From these new fields you will see the boundaries I have for your future. Many of these fields are undefined. I will show you where to build a hedge.

"I Have Begun to Tear Down Hedges!"

"I am reestablishing the fields of harvest for days ahead. While tearing down the hedges, I am uprooting the plants that will not produce the fruit for the future. This is a time to pluck up and pull out. I am setting you in these opened up fields to be My farmer for this season. Learn the laws of harvest. Some of you will be plowers and some will be reapers.

"Many walls were built high in the last season around fields that I had planted, but wild grapes came up. Now I must tear down old fortresses and cause old structures to fall. I will begin to go in now and redo fields. You have been trying to secure the fields from the past season! But now, hedges are falling and the fields that you have been working hard to secure will be replowed and planted with new grain. They will have a new form of harvest. They will be plowed in new ways.

"Get ready, because in your confusion, the tearing down is part of the process. When I asked you to go forth into the fields the last time, I found you under a shade tree saying, 'Why Lord, are You doing things this way?' I am moving you out from under the shade!

"Rejoice in the Changes I Am Bringing that will Produce Great Fruit"

"Shake off your self-pity and allow My light of revelation to fall on you. Some of you are feeling exposed. You are not sure where your boundaries are because I AM changing them. New fruit is being developed. I can regraft, prune and graft again to produce new fruit from old vineyards.

"Do not kick against the goads! The new boundaries and assignments that I am forming around you are key for you to submit to. You had no idea what it would look like when I began to remove and reseed the earth for the harvest ahead. I am beginning to do that. I am giving out new assignments for prayer. You must get your assignment and pray for new industries to form.

"You must pray during this reorganization of industry. Do not just hang onto your job, but come to Me in these days of changing structures. I must transplant and redo the many industries, for many iniquities have been held in the industries that produced the movement of the last season. Now I must redo. Some of you are going through a great emotional crisis in your process of being transplanted. Wait! Do not wither in this season. Your roots will go downward and produce fruit upward.

"There is deeper oil that I am searching to bring forth. It has been held for the season ahead. I must go at a different angle to penetrate into and catch that oil and bring it forth. Don't be afraid to invest in the deeper drilling. It will produce a flow that will sustain you in the next season.

"Like Jonah who went and sat under the shade tree, some of you have not liked what I am doing. I have used you to prophesy to set an order and to create a tearing down and uprooting. You have gotten upset in the changes around you. I will dry up what you are hiding under. Rejoice in the changes I am bringing that will produce great fruit in days ahead.

"I Am Calling Forth Rivers of Healing!"

"I am calling forth Rivers of Healing! Many of you have not been able to see the river. Rivers that have nourished crops and brought healing have dried up. My people must find My Healing River! I will shake up the fields! I am shaking up your field! The river is hidden. It is very deep. Deep must call to deep.

"The river must rise again! There must be a river of healing in certain fields before I can move forward. You have turned toward healing. Your healing process is creating a great shaking. This shaking is tearing the walls of the vineyard. Now new vineyards must be established.

"The river of My power was captured in the last season. A war formed over the movement of the river, and the river became a dry bed. I must watch for the times to break the captivity of the Healing River. My Healing River must flow into new areas to heal the people and the earth.

"You Have Entered an Uprooting Season"

"New instruments are forming! You did not understand the type of instruments I would need in this season. In My reforming, you have not understood what you are going through. I am making new instruments to plow new ground.

"You must change your vision at this time, for your field and assignments are changing. Also, My instruments are changing. I must plow up ground that had wrong seeds, wild roots, and bad fruit. The land is crying out to produce its harvest, but you must allow Me to purify the land."

'If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves and pray and turn from their wicked ways and seek My face, then I will hear from Heaven and forgive their sin and heal their land.' 2 Chronicles 7:14

"You have entered an uprooting season and roots that have been hidden must be found. Your days of communion are changing. Your prayer life will take a shift. Let Me show you how to pray in different ways, new ways. Your English roots are on the verge of changing. The root structure will affect you.

"Ask Me to cause a wall to be torn down and removed. You are dealing with little foxes and I want to change the whole field. The little foxes will crush the grapes and I have got to plow the whole field again. There will be a healing move in those of Scottish descent.

"Do Not Despise Small Beginnings!"

"Do not despise small beginnings! There are new seeds I will sow in those fields. They will come up and look small but will become very fruitful in days ahead. Some of you are not seeing the smallness of the seed that I will plant to cause things to happen. A different vine must be released to produce the fruit for this season. This is a season of pruning and grafting and regrafting. Do not focus on the plant. If you are looking at the plant, you could align with Saul, who had 'The Look.'

"The top of a plant is not the key since the vegetable that nourishes it is down under the dirt. You must learn to see and eat the root that has gone deep. If you are not careful, you will focus on the Saul system and look from appearance as opposed to the stream and the root of Judah that must spring forth this hour. I must shift you, for you are operating out of eyesight as opposed to seeing My root blessing. I AM moving from one layer and I AM going deeper.

"You have been speaking from the surface of your emotions, but I am going deep into the very depths of your heart so you speak forth. Even the songs and the prophecies and that which I have given you have been at one level, but now I am going down into a place that you have never had unlocked. It will nurture what I want to produce this hour. I AM unlocking the next song for you to sing. I AM going deeper to unlock a valve and connect with a river that will produce a different type of song.

"The Furnace of My Fire is Much Greater"

"The furnace of My fire is much greater than hell's lickings. I am causing you to go into the kiln of My process at this time to fire you and make you glazed and radiant so that I can use you as a vessel in days ahead. I will fire nations this year. I will cause things to happen that will create a furnace in nations. In the midst of that happening, I will bring forth those that are tested and tried.

"Do not balk when I assign you to be at the ticket counter at a toll booth. Yes, you have great abilities, but there is a reason I have placed you there. Quit despising your position so that I can rebuild the hedge of the place where I will plant you in days ahead.

"Bless Me at every small beginning. You will see that there was a river producing nutrients at one level, but there is a fire that is down deep that will cause germination to occur. Where hell has licked your feet and your process from the last season, you will see the fire of hell and will know how to distinguish it in the flow of the fruit that I will bring forth in the next season.

"I will bring forth songs that will quench hell's fires in the next season. My people are not aware of the changing structures and are grieving and in denial because the structures are changing. I am going to go deeper to produce the songs to show them the depth that I can bring forth on their behalf."

"The Fruit of the Blessing is in the Root"

The Lord began to show me that He is taking us back to the blessing of the root. That is why some of you are not seeing the blessing you need to see. You need to go back to the blessing of the root! We will not just look at the top or appearance of a thing, but will look at the root. The love of money is the root of all evil. Ask the Lord to deliver you from the root of the love of money.

"The fruit of the blessing is in the root. This is why I prune the fruit and branches. What needs to be lopped off in appearance will be lopped off. You have looked at the appearance, but I am going deeper so that the blessing is connected rightly and will come forth in a new way. The blessing is the fruit that grows from the root. When your root goes deep and draws from the river of My anointing and presence, My blessing cannot help but come.

"I will pluck up certain things this year and leave other things in the ground. I am digging and redoing the field. I am resetting the hedge. Do not move quickly in the plucking up. Many of the root systems that I have are entwined with evil systems that must gently be removed.

"Turn Your Face to the Fire"

"Turn your face to the fire. You have tried to run and leave the fire. Turn your face to the fire and watch the burning and clearing, for the wind of My Spirit is in the fire this hour. I must send forth the burning so there will not be an evil root left. For those who fear My name, I will rise over you as the Sun of Righteousness. That is where your shade will come forth. I will rise again, so turn your face to the fire. Face the wind of the fire, and in the midst of the cleansing, I will rise again.

"Turn your face to the fire and receive your health. Turn your face to the fire and receive your cure. Turn your face to the fire and deliverance will come. My refreshing is in this fire. The Sun of Righteousness will rise over you and you will stand in the land with a new stand. The healing in My wings will restore your fields. Turn your face to the fire in your field and watch Me burn away that which would keep you from moving under My wing of healing. Don't resist the burning of the field.

"Turn your face to the fire, for that is where you will be healed. Many snakes have been in your field, and by the cleansing of the field the snakes will be seen and will leave your field. Turn your face to the fire and My peace will rise up in you. I am in a repair mode and I must burn away and remove so I can repair. Turn your face to the fire and I will repair your broken wing."

"Do Not Grow Weary!"

Keep turning until you have turned into the new path ahead. Do not let the enemy wear you down. Daniel 7 continues to say:

"Until the Ancient of Days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High (God), and the time came when the saints possessed the Kingdom...But the judgment shall be set (by the court of the Most High), and they shall take away his dominion to consume it (gradually) and to destroy it (suddenly) in the end. And the kingdom and the dominion and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heavens shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High; His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all the dominions shall serve and obey Him."

Do not grow weary! You will triumph in the midst of your changes!
