And
even as births in the natural are messy, so I am going to pull the
Church through the womb of this world and they are going to be
birthed into a spiritual union with Me that is both fresh, new,
invigorating and powerful, but at times a messy process.
But you will see a Church emerge in the coming
days, as a newborn babe, full of God, full of the power of the Holy
Spirit, full of obedience unto Him, who is the rightful head of the
Church. Full obedience unto Christ is coming; full obedience unto
Christ is coming. Men will bow their knees and obey Him. Men will
sell out their very existence for Him and full obedience to the
headship is coming.
And do not fear. There will be those running
around in terror because they won’t know what’s going on. They
won’t even understand what is happening, and I’m talking about
people in leadership. They will not comprehend what God is doing
with the Church in the coming days, but it is because darkness has
entered their hearts and they do not want to understand. They have
so given themselves over to their own will, their own way of
“doing church”.
And
God is going to offer opportunity to turn, but the darkness upon
them will bind them and they will not even be able to. They will
scream in torment at times, as they see the Lord moving beyond their
realm of control, their realm of ability to influence. Those that
will repent will be allowed to come in a servitude position.
Leadership of the Holy Spirit is coming upon the Body in a powerful,
powerful, clean and holy way, and there will be great joy in the
camp. There will be great joy in the Christian heart.
So fear not. The soul of the Church is in the
hand of the Lord and by hook or by crook, He will have his way. He
will not be thwarted by the plans of men. He will not be thwarted by
the potentates of this earth. He will not be thwarted by the evil
one. Neither the Church, nor the world, nor the flesh, nor the devil
can hinder the Lord and what he is about to do in the earth!
So simply latch onto the Holy Ghost and
don’t let go! Latch onto God and don’t let go. Latch unto your
Bible and don’t let go. Read, pray, study and walk, and yes, obey,
obey, obey the Holy Ghost in your heart. Do the things he tells you
to do.
But know this, that he is coming and he is
going to control the Body of Christ in the coming days and there
will be great joy in the camp, great joy in the Church worldwide, as
the Holy Spirit dominates and controls and empowers his people once
again.
Prayer
I am
reminded how you kept David in battle, that no matter what the enemy
put against him, he prevailed, and he was protected in the middle of
unbelievable odds, and Jonathan also. Jonathan would go up in battle
hundreds of times and come out victorious, with just an armor
bearer.
So Lord, I pray, that the men and women of this
nation that are marked like David was marked by you, that no matter
where they go or what happens, they will come out victorious. Some
to the sword, some to the slaughter, but there are those that are
going to be protected by God no matter what happens.
And Lord, we bow to your sovereignty. We just bow to
the sovereign God of the Universe. Let it be, Lord, according to
your will. So be it. Many will pass; many will be destroyed. Like
the many who have hardened their hearts, they will be cut off. There
will be no, there will be no further chances for men.
But there are those that have said, “Yes, Lord. Yes,
Lord. Yes, yes, yes.” And they’ve cried unto you and you have
sealed their hearts. These ones will be preserved in the day of
battle. Though the nations war, and though they come against them,
God will preserve them in the days of holocaust and trouble and
trial and calamity even.
As we grow up as
men and women of God, we understand the complications of the kingdom
– the horrible reality at times of spiritual death and calamity
and disaster in the midst of the Gospel. And we accept it, Lord, on
a spiritual level, that things are this way. The Gospel was preached
in a day, in an era when people were dragged outside the church
naked and crucified. While the saints were in there praying to God,
men were being laid out on crosses by the streets, naked, hung and
crucified.
That was the inception – the birth of the Gospel in
the Roman world. That’s what it was like. People were torn asunder
in coliseums for speaking your Name. It’s the same now, in this
world, Lord. It is a violent, ugly, nasty place, Lord. And our faith
survives in the midst of all this. We are kept by the power of God
in it, and if some of us are brought to martyrdom then so be it,
Lord. So be it.
But I pray, that everyone who has been sealed by the
flame and the fire of the Holy Ghost will go down praying, will go
down preaching the word of God with all their heart and all their
soul. And God, you are the One who determines the faithful. You are
the one who determines the reward, and the levels, and the scopes of
callings.
So
Father, we ask that you will come forth with your mighty hand and
pick up your men and women in this nation and bring them to the
Cross, God. Bring them to the point of leadership, now. Bring new
spiritual leadership, I pray, across this nation cart blanch, Lord.
Draw out your mighty men and women of valor that have been held in
the wings, and bring them forth to lead this nation spiritually,
God.
Even as you discard those who have been previously
chosen. Father, I pray that you would embrace and coronate those who
are being called forward now to lead, to guide, to govern and to
guard the spiritual destiny of this nation.
We thank you, God, for new leadership. We thank
you, God, for Holy Ghost flame and fire on top of this nation. We
thank you, God, that as we prepare for war and conflict in this
coming generation, that the Davids and the Jonathans, and the ones
that have been hidden by God are coming forward. And they will have
the Word of the Lord in them, and they will have the power of God on
them, and they will have even the years of maturity from learning
from Saul, hiding in caves, calling on God day after day after day,
even to survive, even to the next day. Sometimes the point of the
sword of Saul was right at their throat threatening to pierce
through, and God would make a way of escape for them.
A maturity has happened in these men and women
behind the scenes as they have run for years from the sword of the
Church and from the sword of the enemy. And God, I thank you for
what you are about to do, to leap upon this planet. We haven’t
seen anything yet, Lord. We’ve not seen anything. We’ve not seen
the love for God. We don’t even understand what it is for someone
to be in love with God. I mean, to be crazy in love with God: to
rent themselves on the ground in pain of love with God, in love with
God so strong that they would sleep on concrete on the ground for a
year and consider it nothing, that they would serve for fifteen
years to marry a Rachel and it would seem as a day to them, God. The
love of God so powerful in men and women’s breasts that they would
literally be called beside themselves and crazy because of the
amount of love, affection and desire to have for their Beloved, for
their God, for the One that they want to be with.
God, we’re going to see it unleashed in the hearts in
America. We’re going to see a heart driven ministry like we’ve
never seen. Romeo and Juliet are going to look like they hated each
other compared with how these people are going to love God. They are
going to be an example of what the love of God is all about.
And we thank you,
Lord, that there is a tremendous tidal wave of love coming to the
hearts of your leadership and they’re going to teach the people
how to love God and how to love each other. Thank you, Lord. Thank
you, Lord. I predict volcanoes of love will be walking across this
nation through the heart of on fire men and women, who would think
it nothing to give their very mortal existence for God.
Thank you, Lord, for a purity of devotion to Christ we
haven’t even seen. Oh, I see it, God. I see it. I’ve sensed it,
I’ve touched it, I’ve tasted it, I’ve walked it, I’ve been
caught up in it – hours screaming for God, screaming for God,
desiring for God so strongly that it’s almost an insane thing. But
oh, it’s the volcanic love of God. It’s what propelled Christ
through the crowds. It’s what caused him to give his life at
Calvary. This is what is going to be unleashed in the Church: that
divine love. “Amazing love, amazing love, how can it be? That
Thou, my God, would die for me.”
That love that’s propelled people to their deaths for
Christ. Oh, unleash, God, these anointings, end time anointings,
chariots of fire coming down. Chariots of fire burning this nation
from one end to the other with the love of God. It’s not crazy
nuts, it’s not doctrine, it’s not cults, it is love for God –
intense pure unbelievable love for God, released from the heart of
the Father to his Church as a gift. Thank you, Father.
There is a zeal that knows no bounds. There is
the zeal of the Lord upon his people – the purity of the Bride,
the purity of love, a devotion to You and you alone. May we return
your love, Lord. Open the heavens, Lord, that we would know your
love. Open the heavens, God, that we would know your love. The same
love that motivated Christ. Oh, that we could know that love.
May our motives be pure, that we would pray,
“Not my will, but thine be done,” that you could release that
love in us, and it would not be practiced for our own advancement,
or for the advancement of a certain group, but that it would be used
to reach people it is intended and given for. God, you’ve not been
able to release it, because of the perversion within the Church,
because of how we would abuse your gifts. But God, you’re training
a generation to deny that and to follow you in a new way. I pray
that the day would hasten that you could release that upon us.
