There are no words to express what He is doing at the ER right now. Amazing, astounding, they don't even come close! I will do my best to recap it all.
A year or so ago, a young seer, from Bill Johnson's church made his way to the ER. He saw a pillar in the front of the Tabernacle. On it was written all the things that we had done for the Lord. He said it went deep into the earth. As he saw the bottom side, it was a drill bit. An angel stood between me and Pastor Joel Grisham, our drummer with a hammer. That hammer had my name on it. Every time I worshiped, the Lord gave the angel permission to pound in the drill bit. He saw that this drill bit was about to penetrate a river of revival, healing, revelation and release upon our region and upon our nation. He also said that when the drill bit passed all the way through, there would be a sign in the heavens and a sign on the earth. Keep that in mind.
A few weeks ago Pastor Syam from India came to the ER three weeks after he and his wife had an encounter with 12 angels. One spoke and said he was the angel Breakthrough and that God was giving Syam breakthrough in India and that he would carry it to the US.It was the exact same way that the angel Breakthrough appeared to Bob Jones.
We met for prayer with him and something was stirring the atmosphere. As we prayed, the next day things began to be released. I prayed over people and monies came to them. One lady got two checks within a few hours, another got a $2.00 an hour raise, a house that hadn't sold, did. Nancy Magiera, founder of Hub Ministries, found 2 $100.00 bills in the soles of her shoes!. The ER was blessed with a contractor and a financial gift to do some finishing work inside the building. Increase was everywhere. Prayers were being answered within hours.
Two weeks ago, August 13th. on a Friday Fire, Holy Spirit broke through and revelation was blasting. I went to the corn field and picked seven ears of corn. I decreed that our seven years of famine was at an end and now it was time for seven years of harvest. The next night as we were in worship, I felt as if we were the Priesthood walking into battle with the Lord as our banner. We were sending the praisers first and the Lord was winning the battle. There was astounding revelation once again.
Then this Friday, August 20th. Jim and Dianne Paul were with us. The service was awesome but afterward, I went back into the Tabernacle to get my cell phone. I heard a voice speak to me, "the Angel of the Lord is here with a message from Heaven". I stopped in my tracks and felt a strong angelic atmosphere. This is what I heard. There has been shock and awe of the enemy over the region, meant to discourage us and cause us to quit. When it started, we went into caves, woods and pits, just to protect ourselves. While we were in there, we had one of two responses. We were either like Elijah, who after a season of great victory, ran and hid in defeat and got mad at God. His heart was hardened and he lost the very thing he was created to do. Though he still went to heaven and that in an incredible fashion, Elisha and Jehu had to finish his assignment. Some in this hour may loose the very thing that they were created for unless the fear of the Lord overtakes them. Or we were like David, who in the caves, learned not to come against even those who were trying to kill him. He learned to put all things in the hand of God. He learned true obedience and trust. When he came out with his mighty men, he was ready to be King!
When we were in the caves and crying out to God, He was already working for our rescue. Angels began to gather in our region to push back the powers of darkness. We had to come in line with the prayers of heaven to stop the forces of Hell. Slowly we are taking back the airwaves. In the past five-seven years, we have had pockets of outpouring but it did not last. It could not be sustained because the atmosphere was still clogged up. The enemy threw everything he had at us. Depression, isolation, discouragement, rebellion, unbelief, slander, malice and lies were his favorite weapons. Yet we are still alive and kicking!
Because we stood through it all, God is releasing His angels to have His own shock and awe. What He does will send the camp of the enemy reeling in fear! Because He is calling the Joel army out of the caves and forests and pits and we are beginning to gather and join the ranks. Soon we will be marching on the gates of Hell and taking back all that was stolen from us and our seed! Fire goes before us and fire behind. (I love that part!)
That was a part of the message I received Friday night. Now in order to tell you the next part, I need to back up. On my birthday, Robin Rose, nurse administrator, Ambassador and great woman of God, gifted me with two hand crafted spears from Africa. They are about 2-21/2 feet long and no wider than a straw. Very sharp and very real!. We mounted them on the wall of the Tabernacle. Six weeks weeks ago, i pulled one down and gave it to Juanita Orellano, another great woman of God who does and incredible war dance, to dance with as we prayed over her children. She opened the heavens as she danced. Then she put the spear on the front chair.
We went to put it back on the wall after service and could not find it. We began a frantic search and still did not find it. We searched every inch of the Tabernacle. Cleaning teams have vacuumed the carpet, musicians have walked the stage, we have even moved the piano for outreach in the past six weeks. The spear was not on the stage.
Saturday night I was in worship and singing about what the Angel of the Lord was showing me. I stepped back and right behind me, on the floor of the stage, was the spear. I looked over to the wall thinking that someone had gotten it and put it at my feet. It was still attached. I though, wow, that's the spear that was lost. As I grabbed it, I immediately went into a war dance and wild tongue. I was dancing around a fire. I could not voice what happened and I did not even tell the crowd at that point. Then I heard Holy Spirit speak to me. This spear had been taken by an angel and was used in the second heaven to wage war over us. It was now a sign and a wonder being released upon the heavens and upon the earth.
Sound familiar? I believe that the spear is a sign in the heavens and a sign on the earth and that we have broken through to this river, just as the young seer had spoken.
Later that night, I felt like I was in slow motion. Everything was moving slow, yet everyone around me said I was not. It was a weird experience yet I felt the glory very strong. I heard the Lord speak that my spirit had been released into Kairos time, eternal time and it was ahead of my body and that now my body was catching up to where my spirit was. I know it sounds weird, but that is the impression I received. As I went to bed, I looked at the clock and it was 12:05 on the morning of 8-22. Those are great numbers. 12 for Apostolic government, 5 for grace, 8 for new beginnings and 22 for the keys of the House of David! I was immediately "in a deep sleep" I just new I was. I was caught up to a place in heaven where I saw the brazen altar and every tribe, tongue, nation and kindred. You can check out that story on the WEEKENDS ABLAZE page.
I can't give you any hard facts on what has happened and is happening. I can't prove what I know I have heard from heaven. I can only say that I have had enough unbelief, doubt and criticism against the Lord and His workings. I know He is doing a new thing and I know He is asking me to believe Him. I choose to put away all the other stuff and simply believe. I don't know if this is going to last or if it is just a spark before the big blaze, either way, I thank Him everyday for helping me to stand and not loose sight of Him while I was in the cave. I don't want to be like Elijah, I want to be like David, a man after God's own heart.
So if you are desperate for Him, you will receive. It is your time as much as it is mine. This is for all of us and this region is going to explode with His glory. I am just glad to be a small part of it.
I pray that you have many more experiences than I have had and that all your.prayers will be quickly answered. It is a new time, a new season and thank God, it's new wine!
