2003 Prophecy Collection

The Spearhead

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Enzo Salvador

When Sister Nancy was singing, I was reminded of yesterday morning, when I had my morning prayer time. And I was thinking of the higher ground that Brother Shelley had spoken of. And I was claiming that for myself too and for all my family.

And He showed me a rocket. A rocket always has a spearhead. And that’s Brother Shelley. The rocket also has a propulsion system. And the body of this church is that propulsion system, that main stage that gets that rocket into motion. He has his own propulsion system to finish what God has called him to.

But it’s our responsibility to push him to that point, to get that motion going. We have vested interests, because he’s the spearhead and he’s the first fruit. And as he goes, we go follow behind him. And the higher he goes, the higher we go.

Things Being Born Through Intercession

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Steven Currie

During praying and the Lord’s really laid on my heart, when Zion travails, sons and daughters shall be born. And those things in us that we’ve been waiting for to birth out of us, when we come before God in travail, in Holy intercession, for those things to come out of us, for that birth to take place in us, God will set us to the point where we can deliver.

And I just feel like these things are going to… I know these things are going to be delivered through intercessory prayer. Through intercessory and going before God on my knees and going before the Lord and just submitting myself to His will. Just submitting to His plan and what He’s called for us to be.

Just let it come forth from you. Don’t be discouraged. Don’t let nothing rob you from the glory of giving that birth. Don’t let nothing rob you from the glory of giving the birth. But live in the Glory. Live in the Glory, tonight. Live in the Glory, tonight. Live in the Glory. Live in the Glory. Live in the Glory.

Hourglass Flipping

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Sister Jan Salvador

You know the shape of an hourglass? When all the sand runs out, the next thing you do, is turn it over. Well I keep seeing it horizontal, it’s getting ready to tip.

Mantle of Authority

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I keep receiving a Word from the Lord in my spirit, even along with what Brother Jonathan shared with us earlier. I keep seeing the mantle of the Lord. And as he was reading that, he didn’t do the motion. He was just reading it as it was on paper. But there was a word about a mantle. And when I spoke it in the Spirit, I said, “I came down like this.” And I keep feeling that motion in the Spirit. (Tongues)

We ask the Lord to lift us today, oh God, above the concern of what people think about us, so that we can just be free in the Spirit. Sometimes when we want to be free, and we want to minister what the Lord is speaking, we’re still concerned about what somebody’s going to think about it, and how they’re going to react.

But oh, if Jesus would just lift us one more notch into His anointing, then we wouldn’t worry about what it sounds like. Because I just feel that downward floating motion of the Spirit, a s the mantle of the Lord. I can see it like the mantle of Elijah, when he threw it out of the chariot and it came. It didn’t just come dropping down like a bullet, but it came floating down. And I’m getting that motion in the Spirit, as the mantle of the Lord is floating down into this place.

How many of you will receive it upon your shoulders? Will you just receive the anointing of the Lord, that He might drape you right now in His anointing, in His mantle. Hallelujah. The Lord just said, “Authority.” Let the Lord drape you with the mantle of His authority. Hallelujah. (Tongues)

The Lord said, “There’s a need for authority in this House.” Some of you have been taking some things off the devil that you shouldn’t be taking. You’ve been receiving some of his stuff that you shouldn’t be receiving into your spirit.

The Lord said, “There’s a real need here tonight for people to receive the authority of the Lord.” One of my favorite quotes from the Message of the hour is where Brother Branham said, “All that the Father was, he poured or emptied it into the Son. And all that was in Jesus, the Son, He emptied Himself into the Church, into the Bride of Jesus Christ.”

So all that the Father was, was poured into Jesus. And all that was in Jesus has been poured into the Bride of Christ by the baptism of the Holy Ghost. So all of His authority, and all of His wisdom is poured into you tonight, if you’ll just reach up and receive. Hallelujah.

Is there somebody? I’m not even looking at you, but is there somebody? You just wave your hand. “I need that authority. I’ve been taking some things off of the devil that I shouldn’t have to take, as a true blood-bought child of God. So I need to receive that authority.” Lift up your hands.

“We receive the mantle of Your authority. The authority to speak the Word. The authority to defeat the enemy by the Word. The authority to change our circumstances. The authority to ignore our five senses. The authority to possess the gate of our enemy. The authority to drive out the inhabitants of the land, to destroy the giants in our life. The authority to displace all of the squatters, those spirits that have come to squat in the land of our inheritance.

Oh, we receive. Oh hallelujah. We receive tonight the authority of the Lord to drive away every squatter of the land, to displace every trespasser in the land, and to take the heritage and the inheritance of the Lord. We receive the authority and the inheritance of the Lord.

Bringing New People into the Ministry

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

Well, I don’t want to say this. But the Lord is pushing it on me. I feel like it is to some of you who have come from a foreign place, from another country. And there’s something stirring in some of you. This is so dangerous, because this is what gets you the name of being a proselytizer.

But God’s stirring something in you that you’d like for God to make a way for you to be a part of this ministry. You’d like for God to make a way for you to come and live with us here. And I felt in the Spirit, that ways are being made tonight.

I’m not putting it on anybody who doesn’t already feel the drawing. But I feel like that God is going to add to the numbers here. I feel… In fact, I just want to tell you that I see this place is going to be filled to capacity. And I’m looking for new people.

But I also feel like God is getting ready to draw people that have already stood with this ministry, here to Columbus. Families that have already stood with us, but from a distance. Some have had a fear to step out and to rearrange their lives like you have had to do.

But I see God bringing people and I see faces, but I’m not going to say them. But I see faces of some that have had a fear to step out. But I’m telling you, it’s late. Hear me. It’s late. It’s late. And you’d better leave your reservations behind. And you’d better be willing to step out and do what God would have you to do.

But those who are Holiness unto the Lord.

Strategy of God

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Daniel Skipworth

You know the Lord, when He truly saves you and you truly find a walk with Him, sometimes He leads you down a road that you don’t understand totally and you can’t really see the whole road. Many times, in my life, I’ve faced this. But every time He showed me.

Last night toward the end of the service, the Lord showed me something. He showed me like it was a giant chess board. And I was thinking to myself, “Why are You showing me this?” Cause when He first showed it to me and I know I didn’t really go in detail, cause I was on the answering machine.

But when He first showed me the chess board, I thought to myself, you know all the places, or it’s the beginning of the game. And I was thinking to myself, “Why are You showing me this?” And then it was just, as the service went on, I saw piece by piece being moved and placed. And I was thinking to myself, “What are You showing me? Cause I don’t see where You’re going with this.”

And the Lord spoke to me. He said, “Even as a master chess player has a plan of attack and you can’t see that at the beginning of the game, as each piece is moved into place, you begin to see the total plan.” Exactly, the strategy of God. And it spoke to me.

And then as the service progressed, He showed me something else. He showed me, one of the pieces was Brother Shelley and the other piece was Sister Nancy. And I don’t know Sis. Nancy that well. I’ve heard everything Brother Shelley’s told me about her.

But the Lord spoke to me and He showed me how the opponent would move a piece as if to attack and to take that vessel, to take that piece. If any of you know the game of chess. But every time that the opponent would move a piece to attack that piece, Sis. Nancy and Brother Shelley, the Lord would always intervene, move and counter-attack.

And every attack that was brought against, it was always counter-attacked. But I just, I praise the Lord for what He’s doing for us. I praise the Lord for the ministry in Jerusalem. And I thank Him for all that He is doing in each of our lives.

Changing the Circuit of the Wind

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

While we were worshiping the Lord, I could see like it was a wheat field that was ripe unto harvest. And I heard the Spirit saying, “The circuit of the wind is changing.”

I’m not even sure about the terminology of the circuit of the wind, except perhaps it’s the cycle of the blowing of the wind. But I could see that the wind had been blowing the wheat in one direction and all of a sudden, the wind must have changed direction, because I could see the wheat was laying over in another direction.

And the Lord was saying, “I’m changing the circuit of the wind.” The wind is going to begin to blow in a different direction than it’s been blowing in. And God wants us to be moveable, and bendable, and pliable, hallelujah, so that we can bend with the changing of the circuit of the wind. Hallelujah.

Let’s praise the Lord.

Let’s ask the Lord to help us to be bendable. We want to be bendable, Lord. We want to be moveable and pliable. We don’t want to be rigid in Your Presence, but we want to be moldable and bendable and moveable. We want to be fluid, Lord.

As Sis. Ruth used to say so many times, “God help us to be fluid.” We want to be fluid before You, Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues).

Warm Wind of the Spirit

January 1, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

For the Lord would say unto thee this night, many of you have been knowing the cold and the bitter wind that blows down from Mt. Hermon. But yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I’m getting ready to change not only the direction of the wind in your life, but the wind of My Spirit is going to come with a warm wind upon your face. Not a scorching wind, but a warm wind.

And you that have known the bitterness of trials and circumstances, yea, in the new year, the Lord would say, in this new year you shall know a different temperature in the wind of My Spirit, for you shall be thawed. The warmness of My wind upon your face shall bring new increase, saith the Lord.

You that have looked back on the past year and remembered bitterness, and the coldness and the harshness of your problems and your trials.

For the Lord would say, Now look ahead, for the circuit of the wind is changing tonight and you shall know another kind of wind. It shall come from a new direction, saith the Lord. It shall come for new purposes, saith the Lord.

Lift up your heads and rejoice, for the wind shall change in your life. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, you won’t have to wait until the summer. You won’t have to wait until the autumn or the spring. For the Lord would say unto thee that even in the next few weeks and the next few months, you shall know that I’m blowing over you, saith the Lord.

As I blowed upon My garden to release the spices thereof, I shall blow over you, and you shall know the change of the wind. And you shall comment to one another, saith the Lord, that, “The winds have changed in my life, and I’m experiencing the new direction of the Lord.” Hallelujah.

We decree the changing of the wind in every life. Hallelujah…

I’m reminded of a message that the Lord gave me some years ago, “The Four Winds of the Spirit.”

Taken from the book of Ezekial, where the Word of the Lord came to the prophet and told him to prophesy to the north wind, and the south wind, and the east wind, and the west wind. And we broke those winds down and showed the Body where it took all four of the winds to produce this mighty army. Hallelujah.

And there’s been a missing wind. The Lord is saying in my spirit, “There’s been a missing wind.” We’ve only known three of the winds. There’s been a missing wind. But the Lord said, I shall add that which has been missing. I shall add the missing wind among you, saith the Lord, and cause bone to find his bone. Hallelujah. Bone shall find his bone. Bone shall find his bone. And there shall be a glorious connecting, saith the Lord.

For I decree unto thee this night the connecting of the Lord. And bone shall find his bone. And joint shall find his bone. And all shall be raised up together. For I shall add the missing wind in the midst of thee. that shall complete the mighty exceeding great army. And then I shall breathe, saith the Lord, the breath of My nostrils, the life that cometh forth from Me, saith the Lord.

I shall breathe upon thee and you shall come from the boneyard to the field of battle, saith the Lord. And I shall give you the victory. You shall know the victory of the war. You shall know the victory. For the wind is changing.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord. Who would like to receive that into your life? New direction.

Restore to Us

January 2, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Word directed to the Older, Young People

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

While the Anointing of God is moving so real, Daniel you come back over there with Lisa. Let Paul come. I know he just come in from work. It’s late and he’s tired. But let him come while the Anointing of God… You all just pray one for another. Just kind of let the Lord bind you together there. (Tongues)

Yes. Yes. Thank You, Holy Ghost. (Tongues) Oh hallelujah. Thank You for the Presence, Lord. Thank You for the Presence, Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Hallelujah. Just keep the Glory of the Lord moving for just a few more moments. Kary, you come down and stand with them while Angela is standing there. Let’s have Amanda to come. She doesn’t get to be with John during the week. But we’re not going to leave her out because he’s not here. (Tongues)

Chad and Jennifer. (Tongues) Let’s bind together right now. Holding together. I think if we had a team like that, we could take Jerusalem. (Tongues) Just work Your wonderful work in their lives.

Let the river flow…

(Tongues) Restore to us, oh God, all that we’ve lost in the years. Restore to us the wasted times, the wasted days, the wasted months in all of us. Restore it to us tonight. (Tongues)

Restore to us, Lord, what the cankerworm and the palmerworm, caterpillar, and the locust have eaten away. Restore it to us, oh God. Restore us. Restore us to the strength of the Bride tree. Restore us, Lord. (Tongues) Thank You, Holy Ghost. Thank You, Holy Ghost. Thank You, Holy Ghost.

Transferrable Anointing

January 2, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Tucker

I wanted to share it with Brother Shelley personally and his wife before I shared it with. I did feel to share it with them. And in this vision, I saw Brother Shelley and his precious wife, standing up there. As they were standing up there, I saw all the congregation stand up. And I heard the Lord speak this phrase, “Transferrable Anointing.” A transferrable anointing.

And whenever He spoke that, I saw the men start going up on this side, and the ladies started going up on this side, if I remember correctly. And as they were coming up, Brother Shelley was putting his hands on the men. And Sister Shelley was putting her hands on the ladies.

And as they were praying, just a continual flow of the congregation before them, there was an anointing transferring from him and his wife, him to the men, and from his wife to the ladies. And as he was praying for them that God was giving him fresh Fire. As anointing was leaving him, going into the men here, the Lord was pouring in a fresh anointing into him for preparation for Jerusalem.

And as the anointing was flowing out of Sister Shelley into the ladies, God was pouring in a fresh anointing, a fresh fire for her over there. And this continued on. And God kept speaking over and over. Said, “Transferrable anointing. Transferrable anointing.”

And that way his part, and her part, will still be here. Though they be over there, thousands of miles away, he’ll be here just as much in the Spirit as if he is in the flesh. Because he’s going to transfer himself. This is what the Lord spoke. Not just a transfer of anointing from the Lord, but the very gift that God has given my brother for this congregation, and my sister for this congregation, is going to be transferred into this congregation.

So whenever they do this, just the night before. And I did not know this. But God spoke to me and said that they’re to do this the night before they leave on the plane. And Brother Shelley shared with me. He said, “Well that’s just right. Because we’re leaving on Monday, and that’ll make it Sunday night when everybody’s here. And we’ll have the transferrable anointing that night.”

So I just thank God that this, that that time frame. God knows what He’s doing. I don’t know what He’s doing. He does. He knows what He’s doing. So I just want to encourage you all that… Don’t worry about anything. Don’t worry about Brother Shelley and Sister Shelley over there. There’s nobody can harm them over there. Not one person can lay their hands on God’s servant, doing the work of God over there. Not one person can lay their hands on Sister Shelley or any of their children, anybody.

Sister, don’t worry when you go over there. Your arms are going to be in the arms of Jesus. You ain’t got a worry about anybody back here you’re leaving behind, because if your arms are in the arms of Jesus, so are theirs. God’s preparing. He’s preparing these people. There is going to be…

Brother, like I said. I want to keep in touch, and I’m coming to Israel. I’m coming. I’m coming. Sister Nancy asked. I’m coming. We want to be a part of that. God just joined our hearts with you all. We just love you all.

Turning His Eyes Back to Jerusalem

January 2, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Daniel Skipworth

You know, I’ve heard my whole life that God was coming. Heard that the end is near. I was raised by Christian parents who believed in the Message. And I’ve heard my whole life, but it’s never been made real to me.

Sometimes God has to shake you, make you realize the time. And He showed it to me like this. He showed me as if the earth was on one side to the left, and all the flags of the nations of the world were sitting on top of that earth. And God’s eyes were on it.

And He showed me to the right that there was just the nation of Israel, with the lone flag of, the Israeli flag on top of it. And it was like I could look through God’s eyes. And I saw Him, He was turning. But His eyes were on Israel.

But it was in His peripheral vision. You could just see it out of the corner of His eye. He’s already started turning. It just struck my heart. Made me realize the time. And it really did shake me. And if I could have a prayer tonight is that everyone in this church that is part of this ministry, and those that are not, that we could realize the time, that we could feel the closeness of God as He is turning His eyes from the nations of the world towards Israel. We all know what that means. The end is near.

And tonight more than ever I feel those words more than I’ve ever felt them before. It’s not just a preacher telling me, you know, the end is coming. It’s almost over. There’s just a short time. It’s real this time. I can feel it.

The Way of the Lord

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophecy given through Sister Betty Omilian

Dost thou hear, dost thou know that the Lord heareth and seeth different hearts? If you cry, I hear it, saith the Lord. Look unto Me and I will look unto thee. There is a way that seemeth right ways are the ways of death. But the way of the Lord is precious. The way of the Lord is perfect. The way of the Lord beautiful. Trust in Him. Never be afraid.

And yea the Lord would say unto thee, you won’t have to wait until the summer. You won’t have to wait until the autumn or the spring. For the Lord would say unto thee that even in the next few weeks and the next few months, you shall know that I’m blowing over you, saith the Lord.

You shall know the victory. For the wind is changing. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord. Who would like to receive that into your life? New direction.

Grab a Hold

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother George Payne

I just want to share one thing to you. It’s so amazing sometimes how much we go to the Lord for ourselves. And tonight I came in and we got here a little bit early and I didn’t want to come in at the last minute or seven o’clock and say hello to everybody. But I hadn’t seen Nancy in a couple of years. Well, we talk on the phone sometimes.

But anyway, in my time of prayer tonight, I said, “Lord, give me something to bless these people. Give me a word. And You’ll just have to make it clear to me that it’s the time to give it and everything.”

So you put the mic in my hand. And this is the Word of the Lord. This is the only thing I’ve got to share with you. The Lord said, “Grab a hold.” I said, I want to bless the whole church there, just give me something to share with them. He showed me, said, “Tell them to grab a hold.”

And it’s funny that the gentleman that was just speaking was talking about farm implements and tractors. And He was showing me, like putting your hand to the plow. And it was like the father showing a son how to put a hand on the plow to grab a hold. And He was saying, “Grab a hold.” So that’s what I felt like the Lord was saying tonight.

So what He says is far outshine anything I could come up to say and talk about what I’d do or anything else. We’re just honored to be here and glad to come and show our love and show value to Nancy, who is a great friend. And we’re glad to be here with you all.

Prepared as a Cuttin-Co

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Directed to Brother Shelley

Prophetic Word given by Brother William Tucker

One other thing, Brother Shelley, that the Lord spoke to me about you. You know, I was wondering, should I give Brother Shelley this word? I always wait until I know, that I know, that I know that it is a Word of the Lord. And then when our brother said something about the tractor. And I believe he said that you’re the one that said that about that hydrostatic transmission. Or somebody said something about that transmission, the fluid flow.

Well last night something came on me and kept saying over and over. Even when I was praying over some of these brothers here, “A cuttin’ co.” Some of the elderly people might know what a cuttin-co is. And I kept saying, why is this in my spirit? Why is this in my spirit? And I prayed. And then I said, I’m not going to speak it unless I know, that I know, that I know.

And then when Brother Greeley said what he said about the tractor, I said, ‘Well, if he can use a tractor farm implement for spiritual things, so can I. God can use it through Brother Shelley, Brother Greeley, he can use it through me. A cuttin-co is a little bitty plow that’s placed before the plow. And it cuts the roots and the stones and all the hard objects out of the way, so the plow can come in and it won’t dull the plow.

Well, Brother Shelley, God said that, in my spirit He said, “From your birth up until this day, He’s prepared you for this work. All the hard times that you went through, all the lies that’s been told. And I don’t know your life, but He does. All the lies that have been told on you, all the things that people have rejected you for, He’s prepared your spirit as a cuttin-co. A cuttin-co to cut the way to Jerusalem.”

So Brother, go in the knowledge that God is going with you. And that God is not only going with you, but the Holy Ghost is coming behind you, making the way for even greater revelation.

Leaders of the Army in the Back

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given through Sister Jan Salvador

I don’t really know anything about armies and things. But when you said there was something prophetic that had to be done, and when we all turned about face and faced the back of the church, it was like the Lord was speaking to me, the generals, the lieutenants, and the colonels, the top ranking officials are never at the front. They’re at the back. They’re the ones that receive the direction. They’re the ones that give the orders. And we are all the ones that implement it. And that’s the first time, I think, in our services that prophetically, we’ve all been facing that way.

Fluid in God’s Presence

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Greeley

As Brother Shelley was talking about a change, as he was speaking that, he mentioned something about Sis. Ruth talking about being fluid. And it brought to my mind a special transmission in a lawn tractor. It’s called a hydro-static transmission and it’s fluid driven.

And you can be going as fast as that tractor will allow and throw it in reverse. You do not have to stop in order to make that thing go the other direction. And it just reminded me, if we’ll be fluid in God’s Presence, when He says about face, it will not require us to stop, but we can immediately turn and go the other direction and keep right on moving.

Instruments to Break Open the Seed

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I don’t want to say this. I don’t want to say this. But I have to say it, because it’s coming strong now. I believe those of you that have wanted to be used in the gifts, those of you that have wanted to have tongues, those of you that have wanted to see visions, those of you that have wanted to have something supernatural working in your life, I believe this is your year.

I believe you’d better grab it. You’d better grab it now before… Grab it now. Let this be the year of revelation. Let this be the year of stimulation. Hallelujah. Glory… (Tongues) Go ahead.

I see God using you to break open the husk, to break open the husk, to release the germ of life that’s on the inside of the kernel. God has chosen you as a new, sharp, threshing instrument for His Glory.

And if you’ll surrender your life, He’s going to use you to break open the seed, to burst open the kernel that the germ of life can be released to those who need life. Hallelujah. The threshing floor is a place of corn, of oil and wine. Of the Word, of the Spirit, and the joy of the Lord. Can you say, “Hallelujah?” Hallelujah.

You Shall See Me in Battle

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother William Tucker

My wife is a little bashful when it comes to moving in the Spirit. But she said the Holy Ghost spoke to her when Brother Shelley said about the wind. She said the Holy Ghost come down real strong and spoke to her and says, “When the wind blows the wheat the other way,” said, “As the wind blows the wheat, so must the fire go with the wind.”

And said, “Then when the wind blows the fire, it blows the fire even hotter.” And said, “The fire, the fire is going with it.”

Oh, thank You, Jesus. And the Lord is speaking to my spirit and says, “Those that will receive this about face, that you have seen Me do the miracles, you’ve seen Me heal the sick, you have seen Me even raise the dead, but now you shall see Me in battle. You shall see Me in battle,” saith the Lord.

The Fires of Pentecost

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Song, Sung by Sister Nancy Bergen

Two thousand years ago the wind did blow

The Fire appeared at Pentecost

The wind of the Spirit blew that Fire

From Jerusalem to the uttermost parts of the earth

From Jerusalem the wind did blow

From Jerusalem the fire did spread

Throughout all the nations

Down through the ages

It is time for an “About face.”

From the nations to Jerusalem

The wind is blowing the fires of Pentecost

From the nations to Jerusalem

The winds are blowing the fires of Pentecost

From Columbus to Jerusalem

The Spirit is blowing the fires of Pentecost

From Columbus to Jerusalem

The Spirit is blowing the fires of Pentecost

It is time. It is time

For the fires of Pentecost to return to Jerusalem

It is time. It is time

For the fires of Pentecost to return to Jerusalem

I will flow with You

I will flow with You to Jerusalem

I will flow with You

I will flow with You to Jerusalem

I will bring Your fire to Jerusalem

Oh just sing it to the Lord if you mean it.

I will bring Your fire to Jerusalem

Holy fire burn deep in me

And blow me to Jerusalem

To set Jerusalem on fire

And blow me to Jerusalem

To set Jerusalem on fire

And blow me to Jerusalem

To set Jerusalem on fire

And blow me to Jerusalem

To set Jerusalem on fire

Holy Fire, burn deeply in me

Jerusalem is waiting

For her Pentecost

Jerusalem is waiting

For her Pentecost

Jerusalem is waiting

For her Pentecost

Jerusalem is waiting

For her Pentecost

Holy Fire, burn deeply in me

Deeply in me… (Tongues) Ooooo…

About-Face

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

Oh. I don’t want to monopolize the service. But the Lord just spoke to me again in my spirit and I saw an army marching forward. And all of the sudden I heard a cry. And the cry was, “About face.” About face.

And I saw this army that had been moving in one direction, immediately spin on their heels and they were facing a new direction. And the Lord said, “They shall not go alone. They shall not go to battle alone. For I shall go before them. And My Glory shall be their reward,” saith the Lord.

“My Glory shall come behind them,” saith the Lord. For the cry of the Spirit this night is, “About face. About face. About face.” “About face,” saith the Lord. Your direction must change tonight. For the Spirit calls unto thee, “About face.”

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord. Saith the Lord.

Who would like to receive that into your life? New direction.

The Hour for Instant Breakthroughs

January 3, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

And I lay there and as I was beginning to drift off to sleep, I saw dust rising up, billowing up before my eyes in vision, in clouds of yellowish dust. So thick that I couldn’t see through it. And I said, “Lord, what is that that You’re showing me?”

And I began to hear what sounded like stomping. And every time I would hear that noise, I would see the smoke rise up, this dust. And it would become thicker in billows, just moving constantly around. And I could hear this thumping noise.

And finally the thumping began to subside and the dust began to die down. And I could see the oxen as they had moved out into the threshing floor. And I could see that they were threshing out the grain, threshing out of the wheat. And it was causing a dust to rise up.

And God spoke in my spirit and He said, “I’m getting ready to send a move of My Spirit that’s going to separate the chaff. It’s going to cause the chaff to be removed from your lives. So that only the purity and the clarity of My Word is left in there.”

How many of you are believing God for that fulfillment of the stature of a perfect man? That God would cause us to rise from virtue to virtue to virtue to virtue. That God would cause to be birthed in the womb of our spirit, His attributes. We’ve heard it for so long around here, that God wants to cause to come forth in us, His character.

And when we look in the mirror, we see that we are still very much flesh. We see that we are so far from perfection. As I was coming to the service tonight, there was a few seconds of silence in the car. There’s not often silence. It’s usually the children are noisy and here lately it’s always Sis. Nancy and I and Sis. Stacey involved in some conversation.

Don’t get many seconds of quietness. I’ve never in my life preached on “the suddenlies” of God. But I’ve been in Pentecost long enough to have heard it preached hundreds of times. Hundreds of times. But I’ve never really preached about it. But as there was a few seconds of silence in the car, I began to hear in my spirit this phrase, “This is the hour for instant breakthroughs.”

And then I could hear some of the thoughts that I had heard as a boy concerning the suddenlies of God. And suddenly… the first one that came to my mind was, and suddenly there appeared… And suddenly, in Acts chapter two, there came the sound of a rushing mighty wind and cloven tongues of fire came and sat upon each and every one of them.

And that was what was turning over and over in my spirit. And that’s the song of the Lord. That was a word that the Lord gave us about the wind and then the fire. And then the song of the Lord came. I know God is directing this tonight.

Very simple. But I believe that there are going to be people in this place that take a hold, as Brother spoke, of this moment of time. Sis. Ruth sung the song, cherish the moment. This is a moment to cherish. This is a time to embrace and to hold onto. Because I want you to know, God is not just got something glorious in store for Jerusalem, but God has something glorious in store in you.

I feel like the suddenlies of God are about to burst forth all over this house. And you know I’m seeing that now, tying into the changing of the wind. The wind has been blowing at vers… I think I’ll just sit down. I can’t preach. Remember the Lord gave us a word some months ago. Oh, it’s been a year, two years ago. You’ll have to help me, Elfrieda where are you to help with dates and times?

Woke me up in the morning and He said, “Beware of contrary winds.” And I came that morning and preached that message where Jesus was in the boat and the Bible said, and the winds were very contrary. And God warned us that we should beware of those contrary winds that would blow. And they blew. They blew. Right after that. Right after that service, they began to blow.

They began to try to pull down and tear down and destroy. But God had a different direction in mind. And the Lord was dealing with me that some of you have still been feeling the effects of those contrary winds that came against us in the spirit realm. But I see the change. I see the change.

January 3, 2002 (Friday Evening)

Changing of the Circuit

Vision given to Brother Shelley

While we were worshiping the Lord, I could see like it was a wheat field that was ripe unto harvest. And I heard the Spirit saying, “The circuit of the wind is changing.” I’m not even sure about the terminology of, the circuit of the wind, except perhaps it’s the cycle of the blowing of the wind.

But I could see that the wind had been blowing the wheat in one direction and all of the sudden, the wind must have changed direction. Cause I could see the wheat was laying over in another direction.

And the Lord was saying, “I’m changing the circuit of the wind.” The wind is going to begin to blow in a different direction than it’s been blowing in. And God wants us to be moveable and bendable and pliable, hallelujah, so that we can bend with the changing of the circuit of the wind. Hallelujah. Let’s praise the Lord. Let’s ask the Lord to help us to be bendable.

We want to be bendable Lord. We want to moveable and pliable. We don’t want to be rigid in Your Presence. But we want to be moldable and bendable and moveable. We want to be fluid, Lord. As Sis. Ruth used to say so many times, “God help us to be fluid.” We want to be fluid before You, Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues).

Realize Who I Am

January 4, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Prophecy given through Sister Beverly Skipworth

My children, My children if you only realized who I am, you would not hesitate to follow Me, to walk on the water with Me. If you only realized who I am.

New, Uncharted Territories

January 4, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Jonathan Hollis

I just wanted to share something while they play that. As we were singing that, I could see an old map, a map from the, I don’t know, the fourteenth, fifteenth century. Or maybe even earlier. And the Lord just kept dealing with me that He wanted to lead people into some unchartered territories, some unchartered waters. Some places where you’ve never been before.

But if you’ll take His hand, you’ll not be lost. You’ll take His hand, He knows exactly where He’s leading you. You may not be able to see it with your natural eye. You may not be able to look and see exactly on the map where you’re going.

But the Lord said if you’ll follow Him, He won’t let you be lost. He won’t let you fail. He won’t let you fall. But if you’ll hold on to His hand, He’ll take you where He’s gotten. Those eternal purposes of the Lord that we spoke about a few weeks ago.

Hallelujah. If you’ll just trust Him. Tell Him tonight that you’ll follow Him where the river flows.

The Bread & the Wine

January 5, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I had just a very quick vision in the earlier part of the service. I saw just like it would be sitting before you, except it wasn’t on a table. I saw the bread and the wine. And I thought, “Lord, why would I be seeing that in the Spirit. I could easily peek around and see it in the natural. Why would You be showing it to me in the spiritual?”

And I believe the Lord was showing me tonight that the focus of this service, where God’s going to meet our needs.

Anointed for His Purposes

January 7, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

The Lord was just dealing with me about an hour when the revival will have use of its arms and legs. The Spirit has been referring for several months now in Jerusalem to the baby as the revival. The revival as a baby. The Lord was just dealing with me about a time when the baby has use of its arms and its legs.

It’s like the Word taking arms and legs. And the Lord was saying, “Just wait until this Word takes arms and legs in Jerusalem.” Just wait till this Word takes arms and legs throughout all of Israel. And the Lord was just telling me to reach beyond. Don’t just reach for Jerusalem. But reach for the whole nation. Hallelujah.

From Dan all the way to the Red Sea. We reach. We reach. We reach, God. Hallelujah. (Tongues). Hallelujah. This may be a little strange. But I sense that God is… It’s not about what you feel right now. I feel the Lord. But it’s not about what I’m feeling. I sense that the Lord just wants to anoint us. Not with oil, but His oil. He just wants to anoint us for His purposes. Hallelujah.

There’s sermons that need to be written. There’s books that need to be put together. There’s tracts that need to be prepared. There’s all kinds of things. Tapes to be made. And so many things that need to be done. Messages that need to be transcribed to help lay the foundation for revival. We need to go back to the beginning and remember how God did it. How He laid line upon line and precept upon precept in our hearts to prepare us for this day.

And like Gideon, He stripped us down. And He stayed with us. Hallelujah. There’s so much to be done. Let God anoint you right now for His purposes. We’ll soon dismiss you to go your way. Just let God anoint you right now for His purposes.

Maybe you’re in the Netherlands. Maybe you’re in the United Kingdom. Maybe you’re in Norway. And you’re wondering, “You know, I’m going home. What am I going to be able to do there?” Let God anoint you for His purposes. Because He’s going to turn around and draw some of you right back to this place.

Hallelujah. I don’t see the work dwindling here. I see it becoming stronger and stronger to be able to support, be a backbone and a strength to what God’s doing there. Hallelujah. Don’t ever let it become common, what you’re doing in that place. (Tongues). The father has to commit to the mother. And the mother has to commit to the father, “We’re going to work this thing together.” Let’s turn around and embrace one another in this service. And as we do, let’s do it as an act of commitment, an act of promise. We’re going to work together like never before to see this thing come to fruition in 2003.

Quit Nourishing the Mistake

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I just had a vision. And I saw a man giving a bottle to a baby. Just that quick I saw a picture of a man giving a bottle to a baby. And the Lord is saying that I should tell some of you, especially brothers, that you need to quit nourishing this mistake. If you keep feeding it with a bottle, it’s going to chase you around the rest of your life.

But if you’ll do what Abraham did and drive it into the wilderness, and turn your back on it, and say, “That was the past. I cannot live in the past. But I must press on.” I must make the sacrifice this morning to deal with those things once and for all.

A Spiritual Wound Center

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw just then like a dog wounded, licking its wounds. Like Lazarus laying at the rich man’s gate. His sores were so infected that they ran corruption. And the only relief that he had was when the dogs came and licked his sores. There was enough salt on the tongues of those old dogs that it burned like fire. But the salt was just healing enough that when the pain was gone it covered those sores with a moment of protection. And he lay there and let the dogs come and lick those putrefying sores. I saw it like a dog licking his wound to get some relief.

Somebody in this service this morning has spent more time licking your wounds than presenting them to Jesus. Holy Ghost is speaking now. You’ve spent your whole life harboring, trying to get relief for your wounds, licking them, when you need to come this morning and lay them on the altar. Let the healing Balm of Gilead, help me, the salve of His Anointing, the ointment of His healing virtue be rubbed in them.

They have a wound center here in Columbus that’s becoming famous all over the world. They’re flying people here from many different countries and treating wounds that cannot be healed under normal treatment. They’re introducing all kinds of radical healing procedures to cause these open wounds to be healed. I read that it’s becoming known about all over the world. Right here in Columbus.

Natural types the spiritual. So let God make this place this morning a wound center. Some of you know it is. Some of you know that God’s raised this place up to bring healing to your wounds. But you come to service after service and tuck them under your arm and take them home with you, instead of laying them on the altar and letting God bring healing and relief this morning.

Some of you that have been shoveling for the last fifteen minutes, words right over your shoulder, you need to take them for yourself. God’s not just speaking to the one behind you. He’s talking to you. Not because He wants to rebuke you, but because He wants to heal you and make you well.

A New Day Dawning for Jerusalem

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Jonathan Hollis

The sun is setting over Jerusalem

The City of Peace, the promised land

A new day is dawning for Jerusalem

the favor of Zion is now at hand

Oh hallelujah…

Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty…

The sun is setting over Jerusalem

The City of Peace, the promised land

A new day is dawning o’er Jerusalem

The favor of Zion is now at hand

Hallelujah, hallelujah, praise the Lamb

Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty

Adonai, El Shaddai, the Great I AM

The sun is setting over Jerusalem

the City of Peace, the promised land

A new day is dawning o’er Jerusalem

The favor of Zion is now at hand

Hallelujah, hallelujah, praise the Lamb… Is there someone who needs to obey the Lord? Someone wants to share?

Holy, holy…

…Jerusalem, the City of Peace

The promised land

A new day is dawning for Jerusalem

The favor of Zion is now at hand

Hallelujah…

These are the days of Revelation

Of consecration unto the Lord

We’re going into the wedding chamber

Put on your garments and let’s go in

Angels Changing the Path of Missiles

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

Just now I saw again angels that had wrapped their arms around missiles. One particular… I saw three or four streaming by. But I saw one particular missile that was large. And I saw angels, as they had wrapped their arms around the missiles. One was on the top. And one was on the bottom. And their fingertips were touching, as they were wrestling this missile out of its path. And I could see it moving this way, as they were pulling out of its designated path.

Hallelujah. Glory to God. It may sound strange to you. But God has done greater before. Hallelujah.

Confusion in the Iraqi Army

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

While we were worshiping the Lord, I saw warfare going on out of Iraq. And I saw missiles exploding on the launchers. Never even leaving the launcher. I saw them exploding. I saw missiles that were being launched. And I saw angels. And I’m not one to see a lot of angels. But I saw angels with their arms wrapped around the missiles, wrestling them out of their path. Hallelujah. Glory to Jesus. Hallelujah. (Tongues.) Hallelujah, hallelujah.

I saw the hand of God over Israel, around the coast of Jaffa and Tel Aviv. And I saw that it was only the missiles that were slipping through this fingers that were even making it to land. But many of them were being deflected by the hand of God. And only some were actually coming through His fingers and landing. But I see that as a sign that God’s great protection is going to be over the land of Israel in these next few months.

And I saw such a confusion. The Spirit of the Lord is speaking to me that God’s going to send such a confusion to the armies of Iraq. It’s going to be like Biblical precedent, like God confused the armies in the Bible. How God confused the Syrians. How God confused the Philistines, over and over again.

There’s going to be such a heavy wave of confusion that will fall. I saw Iraqi soldiers running for their lives. And I heard the commands being given “To advance, to move forward.” But instead they were running and retreating. And I saw ground battles going on, something that we didn’t see in the Gulf War before. But I saw hand to hand combat in places.

And so… But during that time is when confusion was going to be poured out on the Iraqi army. And I saw many of them retreating. Hallelujah. So I believe it’s going to be a serious time. But I see the favor of God. As Brother Jonathan sang, it inspired the vision. The favor of Zion now is at hand. Oh, what a great time for God to show the Arab nations that He will fight again for Israel. Hallelujah. Let’s praise Him.

Giving Bread to Hungry Jewish People

January 12, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I just saw in the Spirit myself and others around me standing in the doorway of a building, handing out round loaves of bread. And people were coming into the doorway to receive these round loaves of bread. Hallelujah. And I discerned that they were Jewish people who were hungry, who were coming.

Hallelujah. Maybe God’s going to give us a bakery, a building that has been a bakery. You don’t ever know what the significance might end up being. But we thank You for it. We thank You for Your provision. Hallelujah. For the time to favor Zion has come. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Empty Yourselves & Be Filled with All that He Is

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For the Lord would say unto thee this morning, I am seeking those who will worship Me with true worship, saith the Lord. Yea, I’m not looking only for those who will worship Me on Sunday, but yea, My Spirit is searching throughout the world, looking for those who will draw themselves aside and be true worshipers every day that I bless you with, saith the Lord.

For Yea, I’m looking for a people who will lay their heads upon My chest, and know and feel My heartbeat, saith the Lord. For yea, My heart is beating fast in this hour. For yea, My plan is unfolding in the earth with great acceleration, saith the Lord. And yea, My heart is calling and wooing and drawing for My Beloved. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee this morning, I’m calling unto you that you would worship Me, that you would pour yourself before Me, saith the Lord, that I may come and cover you with My Glory and with My Spirit.

For the Lord would say unto thee, the time is near at hand that I will begin to do the great and the mighty that you have hoped for, saith the Lord. For yea, I shall show you My miracles. Yea, I shall show you that “suddenly” that you’ve been looking for, saith the Lord. It shall speedily break forth in your life. And yea, I call to you again for an “about face,” for I will quickly change the direction and path of your life, and cause you… Many of you will be so empty before Me, saith the Lord.

All of your will, will be emptied out, and all of your plans and hopes and desires will leak out of you, saith the Lord. And you will lay so empty in My altar, that you will call on Me to come and fill you again. And I will fill you with My purposes, saith the Lord. I will consume you with the zeal of the Lord. Yea, I will fill you with the longing for My Spirit.

Yea, when you have emptied yourself, when all that is unlike Me is gone, when all that is carnal has left, saith the Lord, there’s nothing left in you but an empty vessel, then I will come with My Spirit and fill you again with the purposes of the Lord, with the clear vision of the Lord.

And you will know My will for your life. And those of you who will accept it, will walk in it, and I shall bless you and prosper you, saith the Lord. And everything that you touch, everything that you put your hand to do, you will know that it is I who stands behind you, whispering in your ear, leading you, saith the Lord.

For yea, I shall establish a ministry in the earth. Yea, and it shall be a ministry that the earth has seen before. It shall be My ministry, saith the Lord. For I have moved once among you in a carnal, in a fleshly body.

But yea, the Lord thy God would say unto thee, in this hour I will move in a many membered body. I will move in My Bride. And I will have a ministry in the earth. And it shall be great, and there shall be deliverance, and it shall be quick, saith the Lord. For I shall gather My Gentile Bride speedily, and bring them into all that I have promised for her in this earth, before I should take her to My side.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, hear My Voice this day and empty yourself. Empty yourself, saith the Lord, and then call to Me. And I will fill you with My purposes, with My anointing, with My Glory, so saith the Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues)

You are holy, Lord. You are so holy. Help us to empty ourselves. Help us, oh God. Give us the strength, oh Lord, to push all the carnality out of our lives. Give us the strength, oh Lord, to push all of the flesh out of our lives. All of that which is like this world. So that You can consume us and fill us. (Tongues) Hallelujah.

Surrender to My Will

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For the Lord would say in this hour, I grow so weary with you, saith the Lord. I grow so weary with your excuses that you offer to Me. I grow so weary with you doing your own thing, and then begging Me to come and approve it. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, “I cannot. I cannot approve your thing.” For I have purposed a thing. Yea, I have done a new thing.

Yea, I have chosen a thing that I will do, saith the Lord. And as much as I love you, I cannot come any more and bless your Ishmael. For I have not chosen Ishmael, I have chosen Isaac. I have chosen a promise, saith the Lord. And I cannot accept your excuses any more. Neither can I come and approve your own doing. For this is the hour that you must be obedient.

And I speak not unto you with anger, saith the Lord. But I call you from the depths of My Being to obey Me, to walk in obedience to My Word, and to know the mind of My Spirit, saith the Lord. You make your own plans, and then you call Me to come and bless them. But I can’t do it, said the Lord, for I have chosen a thing. And that is the thing that I will do. And you must come and be a part of that.

Yea, the Lord would call you to come and be a part of that that I have purposed, that that I have chosen. Time and time you’ve gone before Me in prayer, and the things that you have asked Me to bless, I cannot bless. The things that you have asked Me to move upon and breathe upon, I cannot.

For years, I have set a standard in My Word, and I am bound to My own Word, saith the Lord. Do not ask Me to approve that which I have despised in My Word. Do not ask Me to bless that which I have cursed in My Word. But come and reconcile yourself to My will. You’ve left this sanctuary so many times, bickering in your spirit, murmuring against Me, saith the Lord.

But I call you this morning. I call you to come and partake of that that I have designed for you. For I have bought you with My blood. I not only created you, saith the Lord, but I’ve redeemed you back. When you had gone astray after your own heart, I purchased you with My own blood. And now I call you to walk in obedience before Me.

For I have strived with you and you have pulled like a bull, saith the Lord. I have tried to capture you by the horn, but you have pulled like a bull in the stall. And the Lord would say unto thee, it is My desire to put My hand upon your head and lead you and direct you and guide you. But you have rebelled. You have pulled your head aside.

Now the Lord would say unto thee, lay yourself before Me this day. Do not wait until tomorrow. Do not wait until a more convenient time. But I call to each and every one of you, lay yourselves before Me this day. And when you leave this House this morning, be resolved to follow My Voice. Be resolved to obey Me. Be resolved to lay everything at My feet, saith the Lord.

For you have kept a portion for yourself. And the Lord would say unto thee, I cannot bless you in that way. Be willing to give all unto Me, and I will use you, saith the Lord. I call you this morning, so saith the Spirit of the Lord. You have interpreted your visions according to your ideas. You have twisted your prophecies to fit your ideas. And I call you this morning, surrender to My will.

Breaking the Spirit of Pride

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For the Spirit of the Lord would call to the men of this assembly, saith the Lord. You have desired to follow Me in your heart at times, but your pride has kept you from walking a walk of total obedience. I call to you. I’ve not spoken this morning to embarrass you, said the Lord, but to call you, to draw you.

There have been so many times that you should have laid before Me on your face in this altar, but your pride has kept you. Your pride. And the Lord would call to you, “I need men of valor. I need men of courage. I need men of conviction,” saith the Lord.

I call you to come out of the shadows. I call you to come to the forefront of that that I desire to do. For your pride is an abomination in My sight. The pride that you’ve allowed to keep you from doing My will is a stench in My nostrils, saith the Lord. And it’s not My desire to break you. I could have broken you.

So many times, saith the Lord, I could have broken your pride. I could have rearranged you by My might. I could have broken you. I could have seen you crushed to powder. But it has never been My desire to break you to nothing. It is only My desire that you would humble yourself before Me, and allow your pride to be cast away, so that I could use you for My will.

You have not been faithful, saith the Lord, to stand behind the gift that I have placed in your midst. And I am calling to you this morning. Hear the Word of the Lord and rise to the challenge of this moment. For I desire to empower you, to anoint you, to equip you and use you in the heat of the battle. For I have not called you to the sideline, but I have called you to the heat of the battle. For I have known about you. I have known the things about you that you have not known about yourself. And I have seen that you have that which is necessary for this hour, if you will allow your pride to be moved aside.

The Lord would say unto thee, there are times that you’ve allowed criticism to be in your heart toward the women of this church. There’s times that you have thought in your mind, they’re moving too fast. But the Lord would say unto thee, it is you. I’m calling to you, men of this hour. It is you that have lagged behind. It is you that have dragged your feet. And I call you this morning. I call you. Break yourself before Me. I will allow you to fall upon the Rock. After this day I will never remind you of this hour again.

But I call you now to throw yourself upon the Rock, and I will allow you to be broken, so that I can fill you with My glory. Many of you have listened to the voice of the flesh. You’ve listened to those around you instead of hearing My Voice. I’ve tried so many times to speak to you through My servant and you’ve turned a deaf ear because it’s become common to you, said the Lord. So I call you again. I call you again this morning. Hear Me, said the Lord. (Tongues)

I’m just feeling now the spirit that gets on people sometimes, and they start saying, “Prophecies are supposed to be specific.” What do you want God to do? Call your name? Is that what you desire? Is that what it will take? I don’t feel the Lord doing that this morning. But I just ask you, is that what it will take? Would it be that God will have to prophesy your name? Is that what it would take to make you specific enough to fit your idea of what a prophecy is supposed to be?

I hear the Spirit of God calling out of the portals of Glory. Not because He wants to hurt you or embarrass you, or humiliate you, but because He wants to use us. (Tongues)

Whole House Surrender

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

So many times, said the Lord, I’ve tried to move among you. I’ve tried to call you, but you want to sit back. I not only call to the men, I call to the women, said the Lord. If at any one time you could everyone throw yourself at Me, if there was ever one time that everyone in this House could surrender, I would show you what My power can do. I would show you deliverance like you have never seen before. I would show you total instantaneous deliverance like you have never seen before.

If all of you could surrender at the same time. But it seems that when some of you want to serve the Lord, others of you grow cold. I didn’t call you here, saith the Lord, to be like other churches. I didn’t call you here to be like other places. I called you to maintain revival. (Tongues)

Spirit of Transformation

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

The Word that I’m getting in my spirit is, “A Spirit of Transformation.” I believe there’s a Spirit of transformation, the transforming power of the Lord is in this House. Come and be transformed. Come and be changed. Come and be rearranged by the Spirit of God. (Tongues)

Let’s call out to the Lord, Church. You know how to do it. You know how to call out to the Lord. If you’ll just sit silently in prayer, the devil will rob your thoughts. He’ll rob you in this hour. He’ll steal this moment away from you if you’ll let him. Don’t let the devil steal this moment. This is a God-ordained moment. Don’t let the devil steal this moment. (Tongues) Oh, charge this place. (Tongues)

Oh Jesus. Jesus… Oh hallelujah. Jesus. Oh Lord, I want You to remember, Lord, that they’ve been faithful when the things were hard. I want You to remember, Lord, [Unclear audio] Raise them up. Surely this is the hour. Surely this is the time, oh God.

A New Move of God Is Born

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I just heard the Spirit of the Lord say, “This is where a new move of God is born.” I just heard the Lord say that this is where a new move of God is born. Just huddled around the altar in brokenness and in unity before the Lord. I just heard Him say this is where a new move of God is born. (Tongues)

See the Fruit of Past Sowing

January 19, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

And all of a sudden, the Lord spoke to me, sitting there at the computer. And I began to type it. I saw a vision. And in this vision, I saw the Lord, from his shoulders down. His face just a glow of Glory. And He had two-bushel baskets in His arm.

His arms were wrapped around these bushel baskets. And they were piled up in pyramid of fruit. The fruit was piled up, almost like a pyramid. All in these baskets. And fruit was falling out of these baskets. And He was coming down over Jerusalem, and this fruit was falling out of the baskets.

And the Lord spoke and He said. To encourage them, that in this they’re still sowing. “But very soon I’m coming with the fruit, and you’re going to see the fruit of what you’ve been sowing for all of these years.” Hallelujah.

In 1972. In 1972 Sister Ruth went to Jerusalem with twenty-five young people. And they began to sow prayer and worship and intercession into the heavens. And all these years. And I could see these little ladies running around, watching this video and praising the Lord. And they’ve had wonderful visitations this weekend with the videos, you know. That God’s blessing them even, though they’re sitting there watching the monitor screen. The anointing is still there.

They worship and when we pray, they come up and pray. And when we hug one another, they hug one another. And when, you know, it’s just been that way. It’s been a real wonderful thing.

But God spoke. And that’s not all He said. He said, “When I begin to bring the fruit…” See, I could see some of the fruit falling ahead. It was falling. But the Lord was bringing the abundance with Him when He comes. I’m expecting that to be a real visitation.

We’re believing that March of this year is going to be a release over Jerusalem. We believe. It’s forty years this March will be forty years since the Seven Seals were preached. And we’re believing that there’s going to be a powerful release over Jerusalem at the anniversary of those Seals. I believe that. Sister Nancy is so happy because her birthday comes in the middle of that time. March 16th.

And the Lord spoke to me after the vision was leaving me. And He said, “What I’m about to do in Jerusalem has never been, has not been in that city since the Day of Pentecost. The fruit that I’m going to pour out, the manifestation that I’m going to pour out of My Spirit, has not been known in that city since the Day of Pentecost.”

Act of Obedience

January 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I just received something like a word of knowledge from the Lord that God’s been dealing with somebody about something and it’s not something you can perform in this service tonight. But God’s been dealing with somebody about something and it’s going to be a little costly in your life.

The Lord’s been dealing with you and speaking to you about it. And the Lord wanted me to speak to you and tell you to be obedient. Because God’s got a miracle. God’s got a miracle that He wants to work on your behalf and He’s waiting on this act of obedience so that He can have His way.

Hallelujah. And if I were you, I’d claim it. If God had been dealing with me, if it was one or two or a dozen, if God had been putting something on my heart to do, I would claim that that was me and I would leave this place determined to be obedient to whatever the Lord was telling me to do. Hallelujah.

It’s not something that you could do tonight. It’s not like going to somebody in here and praying for them. The Lord let me know it wasn’t something you could do tonight. But it was something you needed to do as you leave this place. Begin to prepare to do whatever it is that He’s been putting in your heart. Hallelujah.

Moving Out & Stretching Yourself

January 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I don’t know how to describe what I’ve been feeling for the last few minutes. But I’d been feeling like God wanted somebody to move beyond themselves. I felt like God wanted somebody to do something other than what they always do. That sounds so strange.

And I don’t mind the children worshiping the Lord. We encourage them to worship the Lord. But it was distracting to me as the Lord was… I was trying to interpret and understand what the Lord was letting me feel. And it just kept catching my eye. And that’s the reason I asked you all to stop them.

Not because we don’t want them to… I don’t care. I’m not going to let this be a church like other churches where everything is so ordered that God can’t move. And everything’s so stiff that the Holy Ghost can’t have his way. We’ve got over caring or really thinking about what people say about us.

But tonight I was just feeling like God wanted somebody to move a little bit out of their comfort zone. To stretch yourself a little bit in praise. To do a little something that you wouldn’t normally do to praise God.

Maybe if you usually praise Him quietly, the Lord was just, maybe He was just desiring that you’d praise Him a little louder than what you’d normally do. I don’t know what it is. But I kept feeling like God wanted somebody to get out of their little comfort zone and move a little closer to the Lord tonight.

And I know, nobody wants to think of stubbornness, but I have to be honest and tell you that the resistance that I was feeling, it felt like a little stubbornness in somebody’s life that just keeps them from reaching out a little bit, move a little. If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always be what you’ve always been.

And sometimes, God wants us just to stretch ourselves a little bit. So you pray about it. You see if the Lord will show you what it would mean in your own life. I know every one of us need to stretch ourselves. “Amen, Pastor.”

Come Up a Little Higher

January 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

While we were worshiping the Lord, I saw in the Spirit, a door. And when the door opened, I saw there was no room to step inside the door, no landing inside the door. But as soon as the door opened and you were going to step through, there was a stairway that was leading up. And then at the top of the stairway, I saw a door and there ended up being three doors.

And every time a door was opened, there was a stairway immediately. And the Lord was speaking into my spirit saying, “I’m opening a door for you in this place tonight. And when I open the door, it’s time to climb.” There’ll be no time to tarry on the level of the door. But it’s going to be an ascension. And God’s going to cause you to climb spiritually.

When you think you’ve climbed and God begins to open another door, then it’s still another climbing. So, I don’t know how to give an interpretation other than that. But I receive it in my own life that the Lord wants us, like He said to John on the Island of Patmos, “Come up a little higher.” Maybe the Lord’s just saying He wants us to come a little higher. Let’s do that tonight in the Spirit. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Opportunity, Ability, & Provision

January 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

When I was trying so hard to get what the Lord was showing me… I’m so sorry that my flesh, I allowed my flesh to be distracted. Because I believe there was something there. But I won’t be able to explain it. I couldn’t get it in the Spirit.

But I saw that on the first door was written the word, “opportunity.” And on the second door was written the word, “ability.” And on the third door was written the word, “provision.” And I was trying to see how these words related.

When we’re willing to step through the door of opportunity that God opens up for us, whether it’s a door of ministry or whether it’s even doors that concern our natural life. If we’re obedient to step into that door and climb, not try to stay on the level that we’ve been in, but hear the voice of the Spirit.

As Bro. Daniel said tonight, hear the voice of the Spirit when it calls, come up higher. That deep calling to the deep. Surely every person that loves the Lord is feeling that tugging at your heart to be more for God. It just seems like everybody is experiencing that.

I just received an e-mail concerning a sister of opportunity and climb. Then the second door I saw it was ability. Which leads me to believe if you will step through the door of opportunity and climb, you’ll come to the place where God will give you the ability to do what He’s called you to do. Is that alright?

And then when we get the ability, the talent, the gifting of God operating in our life and climb in those abilities and those Anointings, I saw that God would give the provision. And I claim that provision tonight for the work of the Lord in Columbus Georgia. And I claim that provision for the work of the Lord in Jerusalem.

That God will cause us to be faithful to step through every, God ordained door of opportunity and that He would give us the great abilities of the Spirit to do what He’d have us to do. And that He will open the doors of provision. Hallelujah.

Increase of Anointing & Enlargement of Faith

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Declaration given by Brother Shelley

Now I need to declare to you. I don’t know if I’ve already spoken this over you, but I want to speak over you right now in the Name of the Lord. Maybe I’ve already done it a few weeks, but I just feel so inspired to tell you that the cloak that covers you now will not be able to cover you this time next year, because God wants to enlarge you and expand you in His anointing and in His authority. He wants to cause you to grow.

Yes, I saw that the Lord wants you to grow in authority, in His authority, so that you’ll begin to speak the Word. How many of you would take that? That you could begin to speak the Word in the circumstances of your life and watch God hasten to perform it. I declare and prophesy such expansion and such enlargement and such growth in every life that will reach up and claim it now, that you’ll not be able to be recognized when God gets through with you. Hallelujah.

Lift up at least one hand and say, “That’s mine. I take that increase of anointing. I take the enlargement of my faith.” The Lord said for me to tell you that some of you that have not been able to believe God for little things, if you’ll reach up and claim this Word from the Lord, that you’ll begin to step into an anointing to believe God for the bigger things. Big things.

The Spirit is saying, “Big things. Big deliverances and great provision.” Now I hear the Lord saying, “For Such a Time as this. For such a time as this.” The Lord doesn’t do anything by mistake. Things don’t happen by chance. It’s all in the order of the Lord.

Behold, I Come Quickly

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I’m really struggling to deliver this Word from the Lord because I don’t want anybody to misunderstand and think necessarily that the Lord is speaking about the Second Coming. We know that is near. We know that the Lord is coming and we have no doubt about that.

But I kept hearing the Lord say two or three different times in my spirit just then, “Behold, I come quickly and My Glory is with Me. Behold, I come quickly, and My Glory is with Me.” Hallelujah.

So in whatever manner the Lord is speaking, let’s ask Him to come. Hallelujah. “Come, Lord. Come and bring Your Glory. Come with Your Suddenlies. Come with Your Suddenlies, Lord. Bring Your Glory upon us.” Hallelujah. Hallelujah…

Let’s lift our hands to the Lord and worship Him in. In whatever way that God would desire to come to you, let Him know that You welcome His coming. We welcome You at Your coming.

Seeing the Suddenlies

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I could see like flashes of light all over this congregation, like cameras going off with a flashbulb. I could see it at different places over the sanctuary. This light, just flashing one time and then moving somewhere else and flashing. And I saw it several times.

And in my spirit, I said, “Lord, what are those flashes of light?” And the Lord said, “Those are My “Suddenlies. Those are My Suddenlies. I’m letting you see My suddenlies like flashes of light among you.” Hallelujah. I don’t know about you, but I could use one of those suddenlies. (Tongues) Hallelujah

Behold I Come & My Glory with Me

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

In the Spirit, I could see that God was wanting us to prepare ourselves to receive Him. And I saw, as it were, a red carpet being rolled out to welcome a dignitary. And the Lord is saying that we should begin to roll out the red carpet and prepare.

I got that little thought before the other. When I looked over there and I saw Brother Greeley pick up his trumpet, the thought came to me concerning the heralding of some event and how it’s often done with a trumpet. And then after, the Lord said, “Behold, I come and My Glory is with Me.”

Then I could see, as it were, that red carpet rolling out, and a whole row of people lifting up their trumpets to welcome the Lord. So let’s herald His coming to us in whatever way He wants to visit us today, with whatever glory He wants to bring upon us today. We welcome You. We welcome You at Your coming, Lord. Come and visit us with Your Glory. We want to roll out the red carpet of welcome and welcome You.

Walk Forward into the Suddenlies

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given through Sister Jan Salvador

As we were worshiping, I saw the road before us. And it was like a highway on a very flat land. You couldn’t see the end of it and there was nothing in front of it, absolutely nothing. And the Lord was dealing with me that when you walk forward, then these things are added to you and they’re behind you. And that as you walk forward, and more and more and more is added to you, you have a track record and not only that, that’s when the suddenlies come, when you take that step.

Red Carpet Unrolling Before Us

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Jonathan Hollis

The Lord give me a similar vision…

[Ed., Brother Shelley reminds of the vision he had of walking out on boards and they would appear as a step was taken…]

Yes, during camp meeting. The Lord give me a vision on Tuesday night and then when Brother Shelley said that about the red carpet this morning, but I never felt the Anointing to share it. But I could just see us. And he was speaking about someone in the church and when he said that about that person, I saw it.

But I felt like it was for the whole body. There was a red carpet, but it was rolled up. And then when Bro. Shelley said that about the red carpet this morning, that was confirmation and then Sis. Jan’s tonight. So I feel the Lord wanted me to share it. I saw the red carpet rolled up. But it was for us. It wasn’t for the Lord. And as we would take one step on the carpet, it would unroll just a little farther.

But we had to take that step. It wasn’t ever unrolled all the way, until we took our step and it kept being unrolled and unrolled before us, until we came to the destination that God had for us. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Just don’t be afraid to take that step. But be obedient in the first step and God will reveal more. Amen? Hallelujah. Is there someone else?

When You Need Me, I’ll Let You See My Face

February 2, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

But as I started to doze off to sleep, I saw something I’ve never seen before. As I started to doze off to sleep, I saw Jesus like I’ve never seen Him before. And I wanted to tell it this morning, but I just couldn’t. I saw Him walking toward me, like I’ve never seen Him in… I’ve seen the Lord, seen visions. But somehow, I felt like this was hardly a vision. It was more reality than it was vision. And I saw the sway… This is how real it was. I saw the sway of His garment as it swished with His movement.

And He got just a little bit away from me. And I thought, surely He’ll stop. Because I’ve never really had a vision to where I could say, I saw the face, really, literally what I believe was the face of Jesus. Brother Branham did.

Before you criticize, Brother Branham had a vision and he saw Jesus. And he saw His face. But I’d never seen it quite like that. And He was just a few feet away from me and I remember thinking, “Lord, I’m so unworthy. I’ve been so ill. Our house…” You know, just little, we didn’t have a knock down drag out or nothing like that, but just that tension of traveling.

We had such wonderful days alone and then reality struck and everything’s tight. And I thought, I said, even in this, not sleep place I was as I was drifting off. I might have even been asleep a little while and came back to. I’m not sure. But I said, “Oh, I’m not worthy. I’m not worthy for You to come to me this way. And I’m certainly not worthy for You to come this close. He had just paused a little ways. From about here, to Brother Tremain, from me.

And I said, “I’m not worthy for You to come, especially this close.” And He looked at me. And I saw His face in a way that I’ve never seen it before. And He started walking closer. And in that moment, I realized that it was not anything to do with my worthiness. He got close enough to me that I could reach out and could have laid my hand on His shoulder in this vision. And I wanted to so desperately, just to lay my hands on His shoulder. Something kept me from doing it. Just the Holy Presence of the Lord. And for just a few seconds, I bowed my head to reverence His Presence.

And He said these words to me, “I’ve come to let you know, that when you need Me, I’ll let you see My face. When you need Me, I’ll let you see My face.” How many of you desire to see Him closer? What importance is it? Oh my. It’s so important because it shakes you to reality. I hope that every person in this place can have a vision and see the Lord that close. If for no other reason, you’ll come out of it remembering that He loves you so much. It’s not about you being worthy. It’s about how much He loves you.

And I remembered how the Lord had spoke to us some time back. He was going to show Himself to us, face to face. I can tell you, there’s strength in seeing the Lord that close. I told it, I wasn’t going to tell it. I thought perhaps it was too personal to tell. But I told it because I got a word in my spirit as I stepped here that there were some others here tonight who need it. You needed to see His face. You just need it. Whether you see it with your eyes or whether you sense it and see it in the Spirit, you just needed to see His face. You need His strength.

And I’m going to ask the Lord right now. Join with me. I’m going to ask the Lord right now to let you see Him in some way. If it’s just to feel His Presence like you’ve never felt Him, or see Him like you’ve never seen Him so that you could remember what He looked like or whatever it is, whatever it will take to strengthen you. For I sense in my spirit that the Lord wants to give you strength.

I was sitting there on the front pew, struggling with everything that was in me to stay awake, because my body was so tired from traveling. And all of the sudden, as I stepped to the platform, I began to sense His Presence in such a wonderful way. And He wanted to give you strength. (Tongues).

Bubbling Spring Becoming a Geyser

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw a vision this morning. When we were worshiping the Lord, I saw a vision of what looked like an artesian well, bubbling up out of the soil. And I saw that as it bubbled, it was spreading out and wetting the ground, wetting the soil around.

And all of the sudden, that thing began to bubble. And as the water began to come forth, it began to come forth with greater and greater intensity, until that little bubbling spring began to be a geyser. And the water was just shooting high into the air.

And I said, standing there, “Lord, let this be the day in me that, that bubbling spring becomes a geyser. Let this be the day that Your Anointing that’s been bubbling in me and preparing the ground in me.

Let this be the day that it breaks forth with roaring veraciousness. Lord, let it be the day that it breaks forth in me, until I leave here with a desire to serve You, like I’ve never served You before.

Be Not Weary

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Jonathan Hollis

I’m not getting this as a prophecy, but I keep feeling the Lord saying that when you begin to feel the heat, when you begin to feel the heat around you. Don’t be afraid, but know that it’s the Lord’s doings. That He is heating up the atmosphere around you, the circumstances, things around you to melt you. To melt you.

It’s for our good. It’s for His purposes, the eternal purposes of the Lord to bring us into that stature that He’s calling us into. That stature of a perfect man. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Be not weary in the fiery trials. Be not weary in the fiery trials. Be not weary. For I will mold you. I will mold you. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Just give the Lord a praise. Hallelujah.

Come to the Water

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Jonathan Hollis

The Spirit and the Bride say come.

Let him who is far, say come.

Let him who is thirsty, come.

Whoever will, let him come.

Come to the water.

Come to the water. We come.

The Spirit and the Bride say come.

Come quickly, Lord. Come.

Come, come with Your Glory.

Come with the host of heaven.

Come, come and meet Your Bride.

Come and meet Your Wife.

Oh, come away. The Spirit says, “Come away.

Come away, My Love. My Fair One, come away.

Come unto Me. Come away.” Hallelujah…

Come quickly, Lord. Come in Your Glory.

Come to Your Bride.

Come, let the song of Your people be, “Come.”

The song of Your Bride be “Come.”

We long to stand by Your side. Hallelujah.

No Longer Two

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley & Brother Jonathan Hollis

Brother Shelley:

“The Spirit and the Truth.

The Spirit and the Truth.

A marriage, what a marriage.

What a union. What a union.

The Spirit and the Truth.” Oh hallelujah.

Jonathan:

While we’re singing in the Spirit, is there someone who needs to come share something?

Brother Shelley:

“What a oneness, what a oneness.

The Spirit and the Truth.

What a union, a holy, holy, holy union

When the Spirit and the Truth are one.”

Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Jonathan:

This is the day, this is the hour when the union.

It is the hour of the coming together.

The Oneness of the Spirit and the Truth.

Brother Shelley:

They shall be one.

No longer two, no longer two.

They shall be one.

No longer two, no longer two

They shall be one.

The Spirit and the Truth. Hallelujah.

The closing of the breach.

There is a closing of the breach

Between the Spirit and the Truth.

No longer two, they shall be one.

They shall be one.

It is the closing of the breach.

No longer two, no longer two, they shall be one.

The Spirit and the Truth

They shall be one.

The closing of the breach.

I see the closing of the breach.

They shall be one.

Closing of the Breach

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Jonathan Hollis

He’s closing in the breach. As that was going forth, I could see like as a chasm. Between, there was a river or something running between. But a great chasm, or tschasm, whatever you call it. And it was coming together. Very slowly, but it was coming together. And I could just see it. Like, almost like two mountains or just two cliffs or whatever. I don’t know how to describe it, so that you could understand.

But just two, two things coming together and meeting right there, so that we could step over. Step over that breach, hallelujah, into what God has. Step over. Step over the breach. Hallelujah. Step over the division. Hallelujah. Step over. Let it call you over that line. Over the breach, hallelujah, into the new. Into the new. Hallelujah…

It’s Hanging on Us

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I’ve just had a very strange vision that I want to share before I lose it. I saw the moon in crescent. And it appeared like a wedge of an orange. It was crescent, but had dimension. It wasn’t orange in color, but I saw it like the wedge of an orange. Almost like a children’s version of the moon in a children’s story.

And I saw something hanging over the crescent. I don’t know how to describe it except the moon was like this, you know. And I saw a cord hanging over the crescent, the tail of the moon. And I saw like, not chains, but something hanging down over the crescent in a…

It’s strange. It’s strange for me. And I just sat here, trying to see what the Lord would say. “It’s hanging on the moon.” This crown was hanging from the moon, the crescent of the moon on a little platform.”

And as I was asking the Lord to give me the understanding of the vision, I heard the prophet speaking. I heard Brother Branham’s voice clearly. And he said, “The moon has no light of herself. But she is a reflection of the sunlight.”

And he spoke about His little Bride, the Bride of Christ having no light of her own. And yet she’s like the moon. She is the mirror reflection of the sun. And God said, “It’s hanging on the moon.”

And in interpretation He said, “I’m depending on My Bride.” The moon was the symbol of His Bride having no light within herself, only giving forth the light of the S-O-N, the Son. And God said, “It’s all hanging on the moon.”

God wants you to feel a sense of responsibility tonight. All the royalty, all of the glory, and all of the splendor that God wants to show forth in this earth is hanging on the Bride. It’s hanging on the moon.

God is counting on us. Why us? Because He’s called us to be forerunners. It’s hanging on us tonight. Get a real clear vision, a clear picture in the Spirit, in your Spirit, in your understanding. All that God desires to do in the earth, it’s hanging on you. God is depending on you, He’s counting on you. Let’s surrender completely to the Lord.

And then I heard the Lord say, “It’s bigger than you. It’s bigger than you. It’s bigger than you. It’s bigger than you.” Wanting us to understand this thing that God is about to do. It’s bigger than this little church. It’s bigger than this handful of people. And yet it’s hanging on us. It’s hanging on us. God is depending on us. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus.

Be careful how you move. Be careful how you think. It’s hanging on us. Don’t move until you hear His Spirit. It’s hanging on us. Be obedient to the Word of the Lord. It’s hanging on us.

Repositioning the Ground We Stand On

February 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw that same vision that Jonathan was describing. But I saw those two mountains as they were melting. I saw the tops of those mountains begin to melt, and they began to run low. They began to run down the sides of the mountains until they formed a plateau. The breach, the chasm between the two mountains was gone because the tops of the two mountains had melted down. And they formed a plateau.

And I heard the Voice of the Spirit saying, “Not one stone is lost. Not one stone is lost. But it’s the repositioning. I’m repositioning the stones. I’m reposition the soil. Nothing is lost from the Spirit. Nothing is lost from the Truth. But I’m melting them together and repositioning them to form a great plateau, or a great foundation for the Bridegroom to stand on. Hallelujah.

When the Bridegroom comes in His fullness, He’ll stand on that plateau that’s being formed by the repositioning of the stones. The mountain of the Spirit and the mountain of the Truth becoming a great platform for the Son of Man to stand on in these days.

John the Baptist Ministry

February 16, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

But the reason why I mentioned that tonight, as I stood here I started… As I looked down, I began to see a little vision. And I saw myself baptizing one right after another in Jerusalem, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

But I saw myself baptizing one right after another. I have to be honest. It’s kind of strange. Because the scene was almost like a John the Baptist scene. And that is strange. Because the Lord spoke to Sister Nancy many years ago that He was going to give her a John the Baptist anointing.

And you’d think that’s strange, you know, feeling the way we feel, you’d think that strange that God would give an anointing like that, a John the Baptist anointing to a woman. But two things John the Baptist had. He had a lot of things. But two things he had.

One thing that he had was he recognized that which was to come, and prepared the way for it. Isn’t that wonderful? He had that “I must decrease, and He must increase” spirit. And that’s what Sister Nancy said in one of the first e-mails that she sent, inviting us to Jerusalem, was she was recognizing that God wanted to do something.

I Run to You

February 18, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Jonathan Hollis

I run to You, Yeshua

When I’m broken, when I’m weak

I run to You, Yeshua

And I hide under Your wings

I run to You, Yeshua

When I’m broken, when I’m weak

And I hide under Your wings

(Repeat)

I run to You, Yeshua

For You are my strength

And I hide under Your wings

I had this phrase going over in my spirit earlier.

Yes, I run to You, Yeshua

When I’m broken, when I’m weak

I run to You, Yeshua

And I hide under Your wings

I run to You, Yeshua

For You are my strength

And I hide under Your wings

Under the wings of Jehovah

Is the everlasting arms

Under the wings of Jehovah

I’m safe from all harm

For You are my refuge

And You are my strength

I will hide under Your wings

Under the wings of Yeshua…

I run to You, Yeshua

When I’m broken, when I’m weak

I run to You, Yeshua

And I hide under Your wings

I run to You, Yeshua

For You are my strength

And I hide under Your wings

Under the wings of Yaweh

The everlasting arms

Under the wings of Yaweh

You shield me from all harm

For You are my refuge

And You are my strength

And I hide under Your wings

Under the wings of Yaweh…

I dwell under Your wings

I will dwell under Your wings

A New Wind Blowing Over Jerusalem

February 28, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

A new wind. A new blowing. We prophesy a new wind to blow over Jerusalem. The wind, the direction of the wind is changing tonight. The direction of the wind is changing. It shall blow in a new direction. Hallelujah.

You shall know the changes of the Lord. You shall decree them and declare them and be an example of them throughout this city. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus. (Tongues)

I don’t want to wear you out. I don’t want to make you too tired. But I feel God. I feel the Presence of the Holy Ghost. We’re burying some things tonight, putting some things aside for the sake of revival. Some little feelings, some worries, some concerns, some intimidations. We’re putting them aside for the sake of revival. Hallelujah.

Hallelujah. (Tongues) Let the weak say, “I am strong.” Let the weak say, “I am strong. I am strong…” Hallelujah. (Tongues) Ho, ho, ho… new purposes. New orders from the Lord, from the Throne Room, from the Captain of the Host of the Lord we receive our orders. We receive our new commission. We receive our new ministry. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

A Bringing Together

February 28, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

If this is the last age, then this must be the hour that all Truth is going to be revealed. Not just a measure of Truth, or a level of Truth, but all Truth. Somebody was, maybe Sister Nancy was singing about tying together, or bringing together, or something tonight, there was a phrase that stuck in my spirit and I saw…

And I saw, although I didn’t speak it out at the moment, I saw cords hanging down in front of me, of various different colors. And they were narrow, about the size of my little finger. And I thought, “What are these cords?”

They didn’t look like anything I had seen before. And all of a sudden I saw these cords being braided together, and almost woven together, but more like braids, as one cord would lap over the other. And here would come this one from the left, and then the one from the right. And one would come from…

The Revealed Word of God Drawing Our Inner Being

February 28, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I see in the Spirit like a magnet, this great revealed Word of God beginning to draw people from their inner being. This is not about how you feel. I want to tell you tonight; this is not about how you feel. Tonight you may feel good, tomorrow you may feel lousy. Tonight you may feel happy, tomorrow you may feel sad.

So we can’t base what God’s about to do on how we feel. We’re going to base it on the Word. We’re going to believe that no matter how we feel, or how we are feeling at the present time, that God who spoke it is the God who can and will bring it to pass. Hallelujah. I know that it’s happening, even now as we speak.

New Orders for a New Platoon of Soldiers

February 28, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I saw in the Spirit just then, as it were, a new platoon of soldiers, a new unity of soldiers who were stepping forth. And I heard one say, “We’re reporting for duty.”

Let that be us tonight. Let us raise up as soldiers, warriors in the heavenly realms. We report for duty, Lord. We report for duty. Although some have been here sowing and working and praying and interceding and laboring, You are moving us to a new level of purpose.

The Lord said for me to tell you that the purpose of you being here is now becoming greater. The purpose of you being in the land is now becoming more important. You’re receiving a new commission. And I’m giving you new orders, saith the Lord.

New orders. Your reason for being here is changing, saith the Lord, as I am calling you up to a higher level of responsibility. And when I chose you, I chose you because I knew you. And I knew that you could.

And every time your enemy would have you to say, “I can’t,” let Me strengthen and anoint you to say that you can. For I have chosen you for higher purposes. And tonight, I place in your hand new orders. You shall stand in this place and be used to usher in a final revival.

Yea, it shall start in Jerusalem. It shall go forth quickly. Yes, I said quickly into the nations of the world. For I have reserved a people. Yea, I have chosen a people and reserved a people in all the lands for My purpose, saith God.

And I shall use you even as catalysts. You shall be sparks, saith the Lord, that shall ignite the Fire. Oh, as I cause you to be bumped together, you shall be like flint. And you shall cause sparks to go forth from this place.

Yea, I the Lord. I, the Lord shall get into the tapes that go forth from this place. Yea, I shall use the Internet. I shall even use videos, saith the Lord. There shall come a time that I will use so many different ways, using you to spark, to send forth sparks to ignite revival.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, this shall be a different kind of revival. For this shall be a revival of change. Those who it touches will never ever be the same again. For it shall not be about emotion only or feelings only, but it shall be about the change of the inward man.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, all of creation groaneth for the manifestation of the sons of God. And I shall call them forth by revival, saith the Lord. I shall call My sons and My daughters forth by revival, saith the Lord. You shall be used, saith God. Keep your spirit right. Keep your ear tuned to My Word. Be sensitive to the changes and the seasons that I shall declare unto you. For My Word shall go forth out of this place like the roar of a lion, saith the Lord. And it shall shake even the foundations of this city.

Yea, I have kept you here quietly, saith the Lord. I’ve hid you here like a jewel in the rough. And yea, there shall come a time. Yea, I say unto you, do not allow fear to come into your heart. For when I display you, I shall also protect you.

Do not fear the governments of men, do not fear the tactics of your enemy. For when I choose to display you, I shall cover you with My glory. Do not fear, saith the Lord, exposure. For it shall be My spotlight shining upon this work.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, you shall drink from rivers that have been sown for many years. You shall walk in deliverance that has been sown for many years. You shall know instant healings and miracles that have been sown for many years. For I have sent forth My Word and chosen this season to do it. And I shall cause you to walk in the right spirit, so that You may receive My fullness.

For yea, I saw unto thee, the fullness of time is upon you, saith the Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues) When God speaks like that, you know what it makes me want to say? It makes me want to say, “Me? Me, Lord? You could use Me for revival? You could use me for kingdom purposes?”

Doesn’t it make you feel that way sometimes when God declares and speaks? You just… “Oh yes, you. You, brother. You, sister. You that have come from here and there and thither and yon. You. Hallelujah. Glory, glory. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Jesus…

Reach up right now and let the Holy Ghost impart something into you. Thank You, Lord. Thank You, Lord… Hallelujah. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Perhaps you could just lay your hand on someone’s shoulder next to you. Even if you have to move around just a bit. Just pray for them. Lord, in the Name of Jesus. Hallelujah. I feel the anointing of impartation. Hallelujah. (Tongues)

Season of Instantly Knowing His Will

March 1, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

God said, this was going to be a season of knowing His will instantly, not a season of having to beg to know what God wants you to do. Not a season of walking, hoping, believing,expecting to have a Word from the Lord.

But I believe the Bride of Christ is getting ready to come into a place where when we need to know God’s will, we know it.When we need to know what God would have us to do, we know it. He will instantly drop His will. He’ll instantly drop His Word into our spirit.

And God said for me to tell you tonightthat He’s not only getting ready to instantly reveal His willto those of us who will reach up beyond the place of visitation and grab a hold of the place of habitation.He said, “I’m not only going to begin to reveal instantly My will. But,” He said, “instantly I’m going to give provision for youto do My will.“Isn’t that good? Hallelujah.

“I’m not only going to direct you instantly to what I want you to do, but I’m going to bring about instant provision,so that you can be obedient to the Lord.”

How many of you have something, a vision, a burden, a desire in your heart tonight,but you don’t have the provision for it?You’ve got the desire, but you don’t have the provision for it?I believe if you’ll begin to reach a little higher and say, “Lord, I’m not satisfied with feeling a blessing….

Making His Habitation in Zion

March 1, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

God said, “I want to make My habitation in Zion.” Hallelujah. That didn’t just mean the city of Jerusalem.But it meant that,of course it meant that, but it also meant you. Did you know you are Zion?Did you know, spiritually you are Zion?I believe that.

Reading through the Word of God, the little Bride of Christ, the true believers, they’re Zion. We’re spiritual Zion.And God said, “I have chosen Zion for My habitation.I will dwell with her, in her forever.” Praise God.

Using Service Like Mosaic Pieces

March 1, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I’m not sure how to describe this, but let me tell you what I saw. I saw that God was going to use this service like cement.I saw that God was going to use this service like cement, like grout. What I mean by that is,I saw pieces of tile like a mosaic being added to the picture.And I saw that God was going to use this service.

Perhaps a word that was spoken,something you’ll take home with you when you leave today. And it will be like the cement that the tile will set in.It’s going to be somethingthat God will use to remind you from time to time,when you’re experiencing growing pains,that you’ve been chosen by the artist for your color,for your shape, for your size, for your character, for you,for your individuality you have been chosento be a part of the picture.

By God’s design, by God’s election, by God’s predestination, you have been chosen to be a part of His final picture. And God wants to send an anointing upon you nowthat will be like cement,to set you in place, to anchor you, to hold you in God’s design.

I see the anointing that’s going to increase on some of you. And it’s going to be like a billboard.The anointing is going to be like a newspaper article,a billboard, a sign, an announcement, a flyer. The anointing that you’re going to carry out of this placeis going to be used to spread the word about what God is doing, and going to do, and already doing here.Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Your life is going to be the announcement.When people begin to see the increased anointing…And other services, (Hear me now) other services that you attend are going to be greatly blessedbecause of the anointing you’ll carry out from this place.If you think we’re boasting on us, you’re wrong.We’re boasting on the purposes of God in this House.

You shall walk in deliverance that has been sown for for many years. You shall know instant healings and miracles that have been sown for for many years. For I have sent forth My Word and chosen this season to do it. And I shall cause you to walk in a right spirit, so that You may receive My fulness. For yea, I say unto thee, the fulness of time is upon you, saith the Lord. Hallelujah. (Tongues)

Getting Ready to Mobilize the Spiritual Army in Jerusalem

March 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Now let me put it back in context for you this morning. The Spirit of the Lord said, “My spiritual army in Jerusalem has been immobilized.” Here is the definition of the word ‘immobilized.’ “To make immovable. To fix in place. To make unable to move, as a fleet or a body of troops. To withdraw from circulation.” And the last definition is, ‘A fixedness.”

Now you know that’s not a good word, when the Lord says to you, “You are set in place” in this context. When God says “You have been rendered immovable,” that’s not really a good word.

But the Lord spoke and said this. “My spiritual army in Jerusalem has been immobilized. But this is the time for mobilization. And I’m getting ready to mobilize My spiritual army in the city of Jerusalem.” Let’s give the Lord a little praise for that word.

Then God began to deal with me concerning that going in the tops of the mulberry trees. You see, God told David, “Wait. Don’t be moved. Stay right where you are until you see or hear a moving, a stirring in the tops of the mulberry tree. Then you must be, stir yourself. You must shake yourself up.

The Scripture tells us to arise and shake off the dust to make ourselves spiritually alert. Now I don’t want to be discouraging to you that have prayed, that have fasted, that have sown, that have labored. I don’t want you to leave this chapel today thinking that I’m saying that you’ve accomplished nothing. You’ve accomplished and great and a mighty work because you’ve been laying the foundation and you’ve been preparing the way for that that God is about to do spiritually in this city.

I believe with every fiber of my being that when God gets ready with the troops… The reason why the troops are immobilized is because we’re not getting together in the Spirit. Do you know you can get together in the flesh and not be together in the Spirit? We can physically be together and not spiritually be together.

But I believe God is about to reveal such a powerful Truth in this city to those that are hungry for it, that it’s going to bring us into such a unity of the Spirit, that when we go to do what God has called us to do, it won’t be one doing something here and another doing something there, but it will be unit, a spiritual unified body like a troop of soldiers moving out together in the Name of the Lord.

I don’t mean everybody in the same location. I mean, everybody in the same realm of the Spirit. I don’t believe that there’s going to be one church in Jerusalem. I don’t believe there’s going to be one ministry in Jerusalem. I believe there’s going to be many ministries and many groups and many fellowships. But I believe what God wants to do is to bring us to the same measure of Truth, so that He can fill us with the power.

Bring Our People to the City of Jerusalem

March 2, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I see a date. God spoke to me to bring our people to this city, and we’re going to do it. We don’t know how yet. We brought a few with us now. Others are planning to come the rest of the year. But God spoke to me to bring our people to this city.

And He said, “You watch. I will cause people to come and take a hold of them. You won’t have to go out and evangelize. That’s not very good in this city. You won’t have to go out and try to get a hold of anybody. But I’ll cause them to come and take a hold of you and ask you what it is about you that causes them to be drawn to you.”

The Time of Consecration

March 2, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley and Brother Jonathan Hollis | Jerusalem, Israel

Now is the time for Jerusalem

This is the time of consecration

Of consummation with Jesus our Lord

This is the time of consecration

Of consummation with Jesus our Lord

This is the time of revelation

Of consecration with Jesus our Lord

This is the time of consecration

Of consummation with Jesus our Lord

Now is the time to favor Zion

Now is the time for Jerusalem

Now is the time to favor Zion

Now is the time for Jerusalem

(repeat)

Let’s just lift our hand and sing again.

Now is the time to favor Zion.

Now is the time to favor Jerusalem.

Now is the time to favor Zion.

Now is the time for Jerusalem.

This is the time of consecration,

Of consummation to Jesus our Lord.

Now is the time of consecration,

Of consummation to Yeshua, our Lord.

Now is the time of consecration,

Of consummation to Yeshua, our Lord.

Again- Now is the time…

Now is the time to favor Zion…

Oh hallelujah. Now is the time. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus.

Preparing the Way of the Lord

March 4, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I want to share something. I know this is not the time for sharing, but I know me better than you know me. And if I don’t share it now, the anointing will lift and I won’t have the courage to do it. So I just wanted to share a vision that I had. And then we’ll go right back to worshiping the Lord.

I started seeing us as little children. I knew it was us, but we were as little children. And I wondered why I was seeing all of us here as little children. And all of a sudden I saw us reaching for something. And what we were reaching for were the palm branches.

And I saw us reaching for the palm branches. And we were waving them in the air. And of course then I knew. That’s when I started singing, “Prepare the way. Prepare the way…” The Lord desires to use every one of us to prepare the way for a great revelation of Truth to be heralded in Jerusalem.

And this is the part that I knew I had to share, and then run, sit down. Sister Nancy is in charge of the prayer meetings. And I knew I had to share this quickly and then go and sit down, or my courage would leave me.

But I saw it. And I just have to tell you what I saw. But I saw some of us laying things in the path of Messiah as He was coming. And I was hoping that it was just like coats, you know, and things that we read about in the Bible that they laid over the mud holes, maybe, or… To prepare the way.

But I saw some of you, and all of us. But I know that some of the changes that you’re trying to make in your life to fit in, I know they’ve been very difficult. But I saw people laying down garments that were no longer appropriate. And I saw people laying down…

And if I started naming specific things, then maybe you’d be offended. And I won’t do it. But I saw it in the Spirit. And I saw that you were doing it in the right Spirit. You were doing it because you wanted to prepare the way for the great revelation of Yeshua to fill this city.

And the Lord was speaking to me for you. And He said for me to declare and to share that any sacrifice you’ve made for the sake of revival, even those things that you haven’t understood, and even those things that you’ve done just so that you could remain in the House when the standard was lifted, I wanted to tell you that the Lord Jesus sees those things.

And I know that He does, because I saw you in vision. You were laying them down in front of the donkey. You were laying them down, preparing the way.

I saw women here, sisters here, laying down. I guess the only thing I’ll mention is, maybe it won’t be offensive if I just mention one thing. But I saw women laying their trousers, their pants, down. I saw them laying them there in the dirt for the donkey to come and walk on, for Jesus to be brought into the city.

And I say that with all the love that I can possibly muster for everybody in this building. I know sometimes that it’s been difficult for you. Maybe you feel like you’ve been pounded. I hope that’s not how you feel. But I just wanted to encourage you that God has seen it.

Maybe you’d say, “I’m just doing it because it’s a rule.” But why ever you’re doing it, you’re doing it. And God sees that. And I just felt like before we went any further, that we should just wave our arms like palm branches to welcome in this great revelation of Yeshua to the city of Jerusalem. And I love every one of you. And I pray you’re not offended at me for sharing what I saw. I didn’t ask to see it. It wasn’t in my mind. But I’m just telling you what I saw.

Would you just wave your arms like palm branches? “Oh, we welcome The King. He doesn’t look much like a King when He comes riding on a donkey. But we know Him. Many do not know Him when they see Him riding the donkey. But we’re a blessed people. We’re a chosen people. We’re a predestinated and elected people, for He has revealed Himself unto us. And we know that He’s not just a peasant. We know that He’s not just a poor little man riding on a donkey.

We know Him as the King of all kings, and the Lord of all lords. We know that He’s not just a prophet. We know that He’s not just a good man. We know that He’s not just a humble teacher. But we know Him as God. We know Him as God. We know that He is God made flesh. We know Him as the Word made flesh. We know Him as Jehovah and Yahweh God, that has come to live in a fleshly body, to walk up and down these streets, to minister in the Galilee.

And we know that He’s coming again in this hour by the revelation of His Word. Let the fullness of Yeshua fill the streets of Jerusalem. Let the fullness of Yeshua fill the Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem. Let the knowledge of Yeshua fill the Arab neighborhoods of Jerusalem.

Let the revelation of His Name be heralded in every place. Raise up evangelists. Raise up witnesses. Raise up those who will not be silenced, who will minister in wisdom and in love, who will speak a right word ordered in season.

We wave our branches before Thee. Yeshua HaMeshiach, we welcome You to Jerusalem. We welcome the revelation of the oneness of God back to Jerusalem. We welcome the revelation of Hashim Yeshua HaMechiach. We welcome it to Jerusalem. Hallelujah.

We lay ourselves, oh God. It’s not only my garments. It’s not only my garments that I want to lay before the donkey. But Lord, if it were possible, I want to lay down. I want to lay down and clear the way. I want to lay down and prepare the way. I lay my life down before You today. I lay my life down before You today. For Your Word has told us to render our hearts and not our garments.

And so, Lord, these are only little things that we can do for the sake of reaching those who do not understand. No price is too great for one Jewish soul. Not any price is too great to win one Jewish soul.

…obedience today, Lord. I believe the darkness is being pushed out. I believe the confusion, Lord, I believe that every religious spirit that has penetrated the Christian community of Jerusalem, I believe that Yeshua is bigger than that. And I believe just a faithful few, just a band of faithful few gathered over here in this chapel, that we’re enough. We’re enough, oh God.

If just a few of us could sell ourselves out to You, to lay our lives before You and Your little donkey, then I believe that it would be a force that would drive the religious darkness away from the Christian community of Jerusalem. The religious spirit that permeates the Jewish nation, the religious spirit that permeates the Arab people. Oh, religion is what’s keeping people from Yeshua. Religion is what’s keeping people from baptizing in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Religion is what is keeping people looking to Allah instead of Jehovah God. So we bind the religious spirits that have come over the city of Jerusalem. This is the city of the birth of the Church. This is the city of the birth of the Apostolic faith. We stand here in Sheikh Jarrah today to earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints.

We war in the Spirit right now for the faith of the Apostles. God, give us what Peter had. Give us what the Apostle Paul had. Let us walk in the determination of the Apostles. Oh, even to death. Even to death let us be faithful, oh God. Let us be faithful even to death. Oh hallelujah.

Lord, bring them now. Bring them out of the woodwork. Bring them out of every alley. Bring them out of every street. Bring them out of every hidden place. Call those who You have spoken to about Your Name. Call them together to stand with us in this hour to make a difference in the city of Jerusalem. Oh hallelujah.

Come, little donkey, and bring our Lord to us. Come, little donkey, and bring us our Lord. May He come in the fullness of His Word. May He come in the revelation of His Name.

Hear ye, oh Israel, the Lord is one. Hear ye, oh Israel, the Lord is one. Let it be known that there is a handful of people in this city that have not denounced the faith of the Jewish nation. But we also believe that God is one. And we’re willing to lose our lives for the revelation that God is one.

Let Israel know that there is a faithful band who holds to the faith of Abraham, that God is one. Bless His Name. Bless the Name of Yahweh God. Bless the Name of Jehovah God. We bless You. We bless You. We bless You… Come, little donkey, and bring our Lord to us.

Prepare the Way of the Lord

March 4, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Spiritual Song given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Prepare ye the way of the Lord.

Prepare ye the way of the Lord. (Repeat…)

Make His path a straight path.

It seems to be too straight for just anyone.

But we desire the straight path of the Lord.

Let it be known in Jerusalem

that there are a few righteous Gentiles

who pray for the peace of Jerusalem,

who labor in the Spirit for revival for this land.

Let it be known that there is a faithful band,

who are not here to convert,

but we’re here to be a witness to the light of Yeshua’s love.

Lord, thank You for bringing us to Jerusalem. I’ve never been so convinced. I’ve never had such a determination that the love and the light of Yeshua can chase the darkness. It can give peace, even in rumors of war. The light and the love of Yeshua will bring us together.

We’ve come from different nations. We’ve come from different backgrounds, we’ve come from different doctrines. May the Holy Ghost come and cause us to see eye to eye. There is a people in the last days who will see eye to eye. Let us see eye to eye. Bring us to that place. Teach me, oh God.

When I come to the place that I think I know something, remind me that I know so little. Remind me that I’ve learned so little. Remind me that I’ve done so little. And anoint me and inspire me to know more of You.

Let us sit at Your feet, Yeshua, and learn Your anointed ways. Let the Shekinah Glory walk with us through the streets. Let the countenance of the Lord shine out of our eyes. Give us the loving and compassionate eyes of Yeshua. Even years of leadership and years of ministry, and years of suffering can harden our faces sometimes. It can harshen our eyes. But oh God, we pray for the eyes and the countenance of Yeshua.

Let us love like He loves. Let us not lose our wisdom in dealing with the things that we have to deal with in this place. But let us walk in this city with love.

God Will Make a Way, Where There Is No Way

March 7, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

And it happened this morning when I was reading just a bit, that I saw in the Spirit a beautiful replay of the crossing of the Red Sea. The Lord just let me see it as though I was watching it on the Ten Commandments, you know. A little different.

But I saw Moses in the Spirit, standing on the rock, with his rod lifted up over the water. And I saw how the Pillar of Fire came. (This all played out in just a few seconds in time.)

I saw how the Pillar of Fire came and just caused the water to push back. And the Lord spoke to me and He said, “I will make a way for you, where there is no way.” Hallelujah. And I’m going to claim it. Ok? I hope you don’t mind. It’s mine. But I felt like we could all have it.

God Turning Men’s Hearts

March 7, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I just had a vision as I said that. I saw a man’s heart.It wasn’t a Valentine’s heart,it was the shape of the real heart with the vessels coming out of the top. I could see the heart shape like we see the diagram of the human heart.

And I saw the heart in a hand, in a great big hand. And I saw God turning His hand.And the Spirit of the Lord was speaking to me about the turning of men’s hearts. “I will make a way for you where there is no way, even if I have to turn men’s hearts.”

The Word Shall Accomplish What It Is Sent to Do

March 8, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I had a vision earlier in the service. I don’t remember what was being… Oh, yes, I do. It was when Sister Nancy was singing about the pure Word of the Lord coming out of Zion. I saw in the Spirit an arrow being shot forth from a bow. And I saw the enemy raising up in hindrances and obstacles to come between the arrow and the target.

But I saw that every time that the enemy raised up, one time it looked like a mountain. One time it looked like a tree. The third time, I don’t, I couldn’t even see clearly what it was. But I saw that three times the enemy was raising up an obstacle to come between the arrow and the target. But every time an obstacle would be raised up, the arrow had a mind of its own.

And that arrow would go around the diversion, go around the obstacle. Hallelujah. And just before the vision broke, I saw the arrow hitting the bull’s eye of the target.

Hallelujah. And I believe that’s the Word of the Lord going forth from Jerusalem. And I believe the Lord is saying that no matter what comes in the way of the Word of God to divert it, to dilute it, to hinder it, that the Word shall accomplish that that it is sent forth to do. And nothing can stop it. Hallelujah.

And one other thing that came to me at the end when Sister Nancy was giving her word on the distilling of water. My mind was leaving that. I was leaving that example in the Spirit. And I heard the Word of the Lord say, “The closer you get to the source of the water, the clearer and the purer it is.”

You know, some of us have been drinking out of little pools that are a long way from the source. But if we’ll draw ourselves close to Jesus, He said, “I am. “He is the Fountain of living Water. He is the Water. He told the little woman at the well, “If you’ll drink water out of this well, you’ll thirst again. But He said, “I have water to give you. (Hallelujah.) When you drink of that water, you will never thirst again.”

Spirit of Discouragement

March 8, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Prophetic Words given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I’m so encouraged, that I don’t want to be around anybody that’s not. But I realize that everybody can’t be encouraged at the same time. But this afternoon the Lord was dealing with me that there is a spirit of discouragement hanging over Jerusalem among Christians, among international Christians that have come to this land to do a work for the Lord. Many of them passed through this place, and many of them have never darkened the door.

But God was dealing with me that there was a general sense of…. I know somebody has to deliver these kinds of words. There are plenty of people that always have a good word and an encouraging word and a happy word. But every now and then God needs somebody to discourage, to speak the truth even if it’s not happy and what everybody wants to hear.

I began to pray against that spirit of discouragement. And the Lord dealt with me in the Spirit. And He said, “There are more people in the land right now contemplating going home than ever before. More than in the Gulf war. More than when the Intifada started. But he dealt with me that there are more international Christians who have come to pray and intercede and worship in this city that are … They’re not worried about the war. That’s not the problem. It’s the spirit of discouragement because they’re not seeing the fruit that they want to see. And they’re not hearing clearly the next step.

But I want to tell you something. It’s a trick of the enemy. I believe in our rejoicing tonight we have helped to lift that spirit of discouragement. And I want to speak with you, declare with me. “You children of The King, let’s declare right now. ‘We speak to the spirit of discouragement over the Christians community in Jerusalem. And we command you to lift off of this blessed and holy city in the Name of Yeshua Hamashiach.”

We bind you, spirit of discouragement and uncertainty. We command you to flee from the Name of Almighty God, the Lord Jesus Christ. We speak a Word of deliverance to every Christian that’s feeling discouraged and wanting to go home.

Maybe some need to go. Maybe you’re calling some home. But this afternoon You were dealing with me that many are just feeling the weight and the pressure. Oh, the Word of the Lord says “That we should declare tonight that a well would spring forth in the soul of every discouraged Christian in this city.”

“Spring up, oh well. Hallelujah. Spring up, oh well, in Jerusalem. Spring uh well. Spring up, oh well, in the heart of every child of God. We prophesy to the well, “Spring up. Let a spirit of encouragement come. Let a spirit of joy be restored. Restore the joy of salvation in this city.” In the Name of Jesus, remove that spirit of discouragement. Like a heavy cloak around the shoulders of the international Christian community in this city, we shake it off.

I want you to begin to shake your hands. We’re shaking off those heavy bands that the enemy has placed upon the Christians in this city. We shake off those heavy bands of discouragements. We receive the anointing of joy, the anointing of liberty, the anointing of freedom. We shake it off. Gather Your people by Your Prophetic Voice. Gather Your people by Your Prophetic Voice. Oh hallelujah. (Tongues) Hallelujah. Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead. We declare liberty. We declare liberty.

Lift them up, lift them up. As they sleep tonight, lift them up. When they wake up in the morning, let them have a new and a fresh vision for revival in Jerusalem. Let them wake up with the clear vision and a fresh anointing, and a new zeal that only comes from the Lord. Hallelujah.

Spring up, oh well. Spring up, oh well. Spring up, oh well. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Dancing. Put dancing in the feet. May the feet of international Christians that have never danced before, may they dance. May they know the fearless, the fearless joy that You have revealed in this House. Hallelujah.

Sweeping Revival Through Jerusalem

March 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Oh, we know we may not be in the right building,but we know we’re in the right city. Hallelujah.The undisputed truth is, we know we’re in the right city. Hallelujah.Glory to God.I wasn’t there, Brother Whittaker,two-thousand years ago when it came the first time.

But I feel blessed. I feel honored and chosen among mento know that if God should tarry and let me live,that I’ll be one of the witnesses to this great Pentecostal revivalthat God desires to pour out in this city.I saw that God wants to send such a sweeping revival through Jerusalem, that it will go out again and nourish the nations of the world.

I Have A Banquet Spread for You

March 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

They already wanted the cucumbers.They already wanted the garlic.They already wanted the leeks of Egypt. Oh my. But God said, “I want to feed you something else on the other end of this wilderness journey.There is milk. There is honey. There are grapes. Everything that you have need of is waiting for you over there in the promised land,if you’ll just get Egypt out of your mind.Let the desires of the world get out of your mind. I’ve got things to feed you.”

I heard the Lord saying right now,“I have a banquet spread for you,” saith the Lord, “things to eat that you know not of.Revelations to taste that you have never tasted of before.”

Honing in for the Promised Land

March 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Oh, we’re thinking that it’s just about time to go over and possess the land and eat the thingsthat You’ve got for us prepared over there. Oh yes. Some said, “The way is too straight for us.”

Remember when God was trying to raise up a new generation of prophets? Elijah was trying to tell them the way to go.They said, “We can’t go that way. This way is too straight for us.”

We’ve got a bottleneck. We’ve come to a bottleneck.I see we’re coming to a bottleneck in the Spirit.And I see that the way has been so broad for some of us. And now we’re coming to a placelike the sons of the prophets were coming.And I hope that we don’t run from this place saying,“The way is too straight for us.”

But I pray that you’ll say,“Oh God, Your Word has said that straight is the wayand narrow is the way that leads to life eternal.“I see God desiring to hone us in. To hone us in,to shape us and mold us and make us,so that we can be ready for war,so that we can inherit the promised land.

An Appointed Time

March 9, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Daniel Skipworth

The Lord just spoke to me something. There’s someone here tonight, and I know in my own heart, I need this. But there’s someone here tonight that they need the Lord to start something in their life. And the Lord just spoke to me.

I don’t know who you are. But you’ve been desiring something from God. You’ve been desiring a newness in God. You don’t want the same old thing. And you want a real relationship with Him. And it’s not just a relationship, but it’s a deeper relationship.

I believe everyone here has a relationship with God. But it’s a deeper relationship. And He has just told me that He has a time appointed for every single person here. That there is a time already appointed for each one of you. For that thing that you’ve been asking for it to start in your life, the time’s already appointed. So have no fear. It’s already appointed.

I Will Fulfill My Plans

March 11, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Prophecy given through Sister Annie Jones

Oh, My children, My children, heed to My word. Take heed for what I’m going to tell you. Didn’t I say, “It has begun?” Don’t worry about Jerusalem. It has begun. And I will fulfill My plan. I will finish My work. Give heed to My Word, children.

I’ve been pleased with your fasting and praying and worshiping. Keep on doing that, My children and I will do My plan. I will fulfill My plans. I will finish the course. I have begun. I have begun that work there. No one is able to stop it. No one is able to stop it. It had to be fulfilled. (Tongues)

Praise Rising as Incense

March 11, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Kary Payne

I could see, just now, like our praise was incense, rising up before God. I could see, right now, how God was just admiring our worship to Him. How He was just enjoying it.

Oh there’s worshipers in here tonight. There’s hearts touching God in here right now. I believe God’s got something for all of us, if we’d just get in that flow. It’s just right there.

It’s just a real gentle, real easy flow. God’s not going to force you. God’s not going to make us do anything. But it behooves us tonight, just to enter in and let our hearts worship God.

South African People Coming

March 15, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Once you get desperate for Zion, you don’t care about the heat. Once you have a passion for what the Lord’s doing… the Lord was just giving me something about South African people coming.

I know there’s a good many South African people here already, Sister Felicia, but I was just seeing in my spiritthat there’s going to be a need among South African people coming to this land.I don’t know if it’s by tourism.I don’t know if it’s by other means that they’re coming to live. I don’t know how.

But I saw that God is going to need workers also to minister. I see a revival among South African people.But I see it in this land, in this place.Hallelujah. Glory…

Toppling the Kingdoms of Men

March 16, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I just got a Word in my spirit. It won’t be a popular word. But I just heard the Spirit say that He will topple the kingdoms of men. Even those that have been built up, the strongholds and the hierarchies of men in the Christian world in Jerusalem. I will shake them from the top to the bottom, saith the Lord. And I will call forth a people that will follow Me in righteousness and in sincerity, saith the Lord, to produce that which I have desired for this city, said the Lord.

Oh God. Oh God. Not just a bunch of headless horsemen, but send in men and women who know how to come submitted to proper authority, ready to move in the mind of the Spirit. Oh hallelujah.

You see, you’ve got people coming to do this. Then you’ve got somebody getting a vision that that’s not the way they’re supposed to do it. Then somebody’s got a word that this is supposed to be done. You go over and start doing it that way, and then somebody gets a Word that it’s not supposed to be done.

What do you call that? I call it confusion. I call it religious babble. It’s nothing in the world but confusion. But God’s getting ready. Oh, I didn’t know I was going to get bold. I felt a little intimidated when I first started. But I’m feeling bold as a lion now. I’ve got a feeling, God’s getting ready to unfold a plan. Talk about a strategic plan. I’ve got a feeling God’s getting ready to reveal a Master Plan for this city, hallelujah, that’s going to cause men and women to wake up and take notice.

This is not a passing thing that God’s doing, neighbor. This is here to stay. What I feel in my spirit this morning is here to stay. Oh hallelujah.

Revival in Turkey

March 16, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

We pray for revival in Turkey, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Hallelujah. Lord, we realize that in Turkey are the ruins of the seven Churches of Asia Minor. And in Turkey, great Gospel messages were preached in years gone by. We stir up the move of God for Turkey. We stir up revival for Turkey. (Tongues) We thank You for a strong level of intercession in the Name of Jesus. (Tongues)

I saw in the Spirit just then, God releasing people out of Turkey. I saw God releasing people out of Turkey to Israel. I saw them coming. I saw them coming. I don’t know how. I don’t know the details. But I saw that there is a people coming out of Turkey into this land as well. And I feel led to prophesy to the Pentecostal Churches in Turkey, “Wake up.” They’re there. There are handfuls there. “Wake up, oh Pentecostal Church of Turkey. Wake up. Wake up. For this is your hour. This is your hour. This is your time to stir up the giftings of God within you.” In the Name of Jesus.

Oh, we send forth revival out of Zion. We send forth revival out of Zion. We send forth revival out of Zion into Turkey. Oh, shake the very spirit of Islam. Oh, shake the very spirit of Islam. Break every stronghold of Islam in the nation of Turkey, In the Name of Jesus.

And we break every religious spirit. Even Christianity has only been a religion in Turkey. But we break that religious stronghold in the Name of Jesus. We pray against the spirit of Mystery Babylon That’s holding Turkey as well. We break that in the Name of Jesus. And we pray for a real revival to usher forth from that place. Oh God, let us hear it. Let us hear it in this land. Let us hear it, oh God. Oh God.

I saw revival moving like a whirlwind. Quickly, moving very quickly from place to place. I see many old women, many old, old women, who are praying in Turkey for a move of God’s power. Somewhere over their life they’ve tasted God. There must have been some kind of move of God among people, Some Pentecostal people or something in Turkey in years gone by. Oh, now there is just that denominational stuff. But, oh God, Turkey is like every other nation.

We don’t need another denominational move. We need a move to call out a Bride. We need a move that will bring the hungry people. Oh, there’s a Bride in the Catholic Church. There’s a Bride in the Protestant Church. There’s a Bride over in Islam. There’s a Bride in all of the pagan cultures. We call them forth in the Name of Jesus. Call… (Haha) Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I want you to praise the Lord.

Oh, I felt something big coming forth from that little prayer that you just prayed with us. I felt something big coming forth. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I saw, I saw thick dark Turkish coffee coming out of the coffee pot. Thick like syrup, enough to choke anybody. But I saw it coming out of the coffee pot and being poured into little cups, and being sent forth, distributed forth.

I saw it like it was even going forth into the different nations of the world. And God said, “I’m going to do something in Turkey that other nations will taste. I’m going to send a stirring of My Spirit to Turkey that’ll be sent out just like that Turkish coffee cup. They’ll be able to also taste the touch of Glory that I’m going to send into that nation.

Oh God, let us hear. Here we are, and we don’t have thousands of contacts. But Lord, would You begin to let us hear. I ask You in the holy Name of Jesus to let us in this little place begin to hear. Somehow let it be carried, even if the birds of the air have to carry it. Let us hear the things that You’re going to begin to do when they come. Let us begin to hear.

The Lord’s Hand Erasing

March 21, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

As Jonathan began to sing, I saw just a simple little vision, sitting over there as he began to sing. I saw. I guess if it would have been years ago, I would have seen it like a chalk board. And then I got tickled at what I saw because I thought, “Well, I could have seen it in the computer age.” That’s where we are now. But I didn’t see it that way.

I saw it like a dry erase board. And I saw all kinds of different writing on the board, in different colors. That’s how I knew it was a dry erase board, because I saw all kinds of writing. And it didn’t seem to be anything intelligent that I could make out. But it was just covered. The entire board was just covered with all kinds of writing.

And then all of a sudden, I saw a hand bring in a cloth. And I’ve done it many times in teaching over the years, and perhaps you’ve used it as well. I saw this hand begin to wipe. And initially a top layer comes off. If you’ve ever used a dry erase board, the top layer comes off.

But there is something in the ink of those pens that has a tendency to linger. And you have to go back, or either you can… If you don’t, you can see just about everything there in a faint line. But if you go back…

I saw that hand go back and I knew that it was applying pressure to certain words and certain areas of that board. I claimed that tonight in the Spirit for everybody in this place who needs the hand of the Lord to come in and to erase some of the things in our lives that the enemy is using.

Babylon Getting Ready to Fall

March 22, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Shake that system. Shake it, in the Name of Jesus. Hallelujah. Oh, glory to God. Shake it until every idol falls off of its perch. Shake it until every idol is destroyed, and the Name of Jesus is lifted up.

We prophesy to Babylon; you’re getting ready to fall. We prophesy to Babylon; you’re getting to fall in Jerusalem. The Truth of God is marching on. The Word of the Lord shall go forth in Zion, and it shall accomplish that which it is sent forth to do. In the Name of Yahshua HaMashiach.

We thank You for revival in the Christian Quarter. We thank You for revival. Hallelujah. Shake the Greek Orthodox. Shake the Russian Orthodox. Shake the Armenian Church. Let there be revival. Oh hallelujah. Lord, I believe You to let Truth prevail. Let tradition fall. Let tradition crumble. Let the Word of God be exalted in a unprecedented measure. (Tongues)

Send a wave of the Holy Ghost to St. James. Let the Holy Ghost fall in St. James like never before. Let there be a manifestation of the Glory in the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. God, we raise up like an army this morning in the Spirit, and we pray that You will be revealed in ways that You have never been revealed before. Let the Glory of God and the power of God, oh, be loosed in that place. Let it go around the world. Let it be written about in the newspapers of the world, that a moving of the Spirit has taken place. Oh hallelujah.

God, deliver every spy working for the church. Deliver every henchman working for the church. Deliver every murderer working for the church. In the Name of Jesus, let there be revival. Oh, let there be revival among every nun. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah… Let the streets of the Christian Quarter be filled with the dancing and the celebration. Let all the mourning go. Let all the paying for sins go. Let all of the penance and confessions go. And let the joy of the Lord fill every heart. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Look out Babylon, you’re getting ready to fall. You’ve built your steeples tall. You’ve deceived the nations long enough. But the Name of Jesus is getting higher, and you’re getting ready to fall. We prophesy to Babylon, “Your days are numbered, saith the Lord. Your days are numbered, for the elect of God shall be called forth from the traditions and lies of men, and they shall know the way of the holy apostles. They shall walk in the faith of the Early Church.

They shall know the revelation of Yeshua Hamashyach, in the Name of Jesus. We prophesy to the Old City. We prophesy to the Christian Quarter. “Your revival is ahead. Your move of God is ahead.” (Tongues)

I would to God that You’d cause every idol, every statue of every apostle, every statue of the virgin, I pray that every one of them would be shaken by the power of the Holy Ghost. And let them all bow to the glory and the sovereignty of Yeshua. There is none other to be worshiped other than Jesus. We refuse. We refuse and we break the spirit that would cause men and women to worship Mary. We break that spirit right now. And we give the glory to Yeshua. We give the glory to Yeshua. We give the glory to Yeshua. May He be exalted in Jerusalem. Hallelujah.

As I began to declare by the Holy Ghost, I saw statues of the Virgin Mary bowing. I saw statues of St. Francis bowing. I saw statues of saints beginning to fall off of their pedestals, just like the gods of Dagon, the gods of the Philistines had to bow. Oh, that may be offensive to your theology.

But it’s time that everybody looks to Yeshua. This is the hour that we all have to look to Yeshua and not be distracted by the trappings of religion.

Lord, we don’t want to be distracted by all the trappings of the church, but we want to be focused and concentrated on You.

Secrets Held for Fear of Man

March 22, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

And so I don’t have to walk around all the time, telling devils. I want to tell you something. I don’t follow some of this stuff that goes on in the church. I don’t follow it. I believe there are times God sends us places. I was getting a sense that soon I needed to go through the Christian Quarter.

I was getting that, as I was prophesying and declaring those things, that I needed to walk. I’d like to walk right past some of those place, prophesy under my breath, and above my breath if the Lord gives me the unction, that the spirit that’s controlling people would shake.

I want you to know, there are people in this city that keep secrets. They know the Truth and they keep it from the people. It’s time that God shake their little quarter, shake their little place.

There are men, there are Jews, and there are Gentiles, there are Christians, there are Muslims, and there are Jews that hold secrets about things that are going on in this land, that you and I should know about and have access to, and be able to understand. And they’re holding those secrets for the fear of man.

No Distractions

March 22, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

We break that spirit right now. And we give the glory to Yeshua. We give the glory to Yeshua. We give the glory to Yeshua. May He be exalted in Jerusalem. Hallelujah.

From the Mount of Olives to the low places, oh hallelujah. Hallelujah. We send the move of God to Bethany. We send the move of God to Bethany. We send the move of God to every Palestinian areaand to every Jewish area. We send the Holy Ghost today to stir up.

Lord, let this be the time of a great and mighty revelation. In the Name of Yeshua. Hallelujah…

It doesn’t take the majority. It just takes a few. It doesn’t take the majority. It just takes a few that are willing to be on the cutting edge. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah.

As I began to declare by the Holy Ghost, I saw statues of the Virgin Mary bowing. I saw statues of St. Francis bowing. I saw statues of saints beginning to fall off of their pedestals, just like the gods of dagon, the gods of the Philistines had to bow.

Oh, that may be offensive to your theology. But it’s time that everybody looks to Yeshua. This is the hour that we all have to look to Yeshua and not be distracted by the trappings of religion.

Lord, we don’t want to be distracted by all the trappings of the church, but we want to be focused and concentrated on You.

Royal Order of the Flame (2nd telling of Dream)

March 22, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Dream given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I’m not a dreamer. I see visions. But I dreamed in technic color last night. It must have been three hours long. I mean, I couldn’t tell it. I only told a portion of it today. And you’ve got to know me to know I’m not this kind of a dreamer.

And I dreamed about this Royal Order of the Flame. I mean, it sounds like a Rick Joyner book or something to me. I have this full dream about the Royal Order of the Flame. And I saw myself and some of my ministering brothers. Some of you were in the dream. And we were dressed like knights.

And I don’t even like medieval history. It’s the only part of history I don’t like. I was never a normal boy in the sense that I didn’t care for swords and spears and knights. You know, I was already preaching the Gospel by the time I should have been interested in that. I was already playing church, you know. I played those kinds of things.

But anyway, I had this dream. And in this dream, it was like Camelot. And it was like the Knights of the Round Table. And yet we were called to protect the Fire. And the Fire was in a raised pit, like the curbing of a well. And every now and then we would go and look into this raised thing in the middle of the room, and make sure the Fire was there.

And the dream went into all of these sequences. And I told one this morning. Tonight, I’ll share one more. There was this time that the building we were in, like a castle, was going to be attacked. I’m ashamed to tell this, because you’ll think I have these things all the time. It sounds so far-fetched.

But anyway, here goes. I’ve got to tell it before I forget it. I mean, I thought all afternoon about calling Spielberg and telling him my dream. He wouldn’t be interested. But anyway.

And I told one sequence this morning, but another sequence was this castle-like building that we were in, was coming under siege. And these men, their purpose was. I’m trying to clean up my Southern drawl a little bit, so all of you can understand what I’m saying. I noticed I was being drawly there a minute. Forgive me. I’ll try to do a little better.

They were coming to put out the Fire. That was their desire. It was their goal in life. And I didn’t see “The Lord of the Rings,” by the way. So I didn’t get it from that. They were coming to put out the Fire. And we didn’t know what to do. And everybody was running around. Like all of a sudden… We had been in such unity, and we were moving with such precision. But all of a sudden people running all over, “What are we going to do? What are we going to do?”

And somebody came to me and said, “They’re already inside the castle. They’re already inside the castle.” And I said, “We’ll have to use a weapon. We’ll have to defeat them.” And somebody said, “Our swords will never do the job. Our arrows will never do the job. We’ll never be able to defeat the enemy. This is a serious enemy and they have come, fully trained and fully prepared. They’re not coming just to kill us. They’re coming to put out the Fire.”

And all of a sudden, I knew that the only thing that was going to stop these men was the Fire. And it seemed to me in the dream we had never used the Fire before. It had just been something that we protected. But we had never utilized it before.

But in this sequence of the dream I knew that we had to take some of the Fire and use it. And I asked those that were standing around, to give me their arrows. And I took these arrows and bundled them up in a bundle. And we began to pray in the Name of Jesus.

And we took those arrows and reached over this curbing. There was something that was lifted like a grate. We lifted the grate off and we stuck those arrows down into the Fire, and they caught fire. We distributed them. It was a very hot Fire, but slow burning. Burning very, very slow.

And we began to use these arrows. Some people had bows, and some people were just hurling them with their hands, as the enemy came rushing into the room where the Fire was. And the minute that these arrows would strike these men… (They were complete in, complete metal armor.) But there was something about this Fire. Oh hallelujah. There was something about this Fire that was able to even penetrate these metal armors that these were men were in.

And God said, “Don’t you see the power of this Fire?” And all of those men were defeated. And it was such an awesome feeling in this dream. I’d roll over and wake up, and roll over. And as soon as I’d roll over, I’d go right back into the dream.

And we came together, just like King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. We came together and we clicked our swords together. And we rejoiced in the fact that we once again had been able to protect the Fire.

When I woke up I thought about these Scriptures. The priests, they weren’t running around in armors. But the priests were given a specific duty to keep the Fire burning. This was such a holy Fire. It wasn’t Fire that came from rubbing two sticks together. This wasn’t a Fire that came from striking the flint rock. But this was a Fire that had come out from before the Lord. It had come from the Throne. Hallelujah. And that’s…

Oh, I’m feeling something now. That’s the kind of Fire that God wants to send to His Bride in these last days. It’s going to be a Fire-Bride. It’s going to be a Bride so full of the Fire of God, that nothing can stand in her way. Hallelujah.

A Daughter Standing at His Knee

March 22, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Personal Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

But my wife said she’s believing for a girl. I never told this publicly before, I don’t think. I may have. But in our prayer watch. We were having an all-night prayer watch at the campground in Alabama. Was it before camp meeting time we were doing it? Or after? After camp meeting time.

My wife and I went down to the prayer watch. We didn’t stay the entire time. I was sitting on one of the folding chairs, with the shavings on the ground. And I was praying. Just rocking and praying in the Spirit. All of a sudden, I felt something brush my left leg. And when I did, I looked down. And standing there, in the Spirit, I knew it wasn’t in the natural, standing there was a beautiful little brown-headed little girl. And she looked up at me as only a little girl could look at her daddy. And then she was gone.

So I claim that. Somebody said, “What are you going to do if the third one was a boy?” We’re going to try again. “What are you going to do it the fourth one’s a boy?” Keep working at it. Oh, reach your hand toward my wife. Strengthen her, oh God. Bless her, Jesus. Hallelujah. Anyway, moving right along.

Eagle’s Tether Broken

March 23, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

The Lord gave me a vision a few days ago in a prayer meeting here, that had a powerful impact in the service.And people were really touched and blessed,and testified later of what God had sown into their spirits.

I saw a great eagle. And this eagle was taking flight. He was trying to take flight.But he was only getting so highand being yanked or jerked back down. And I couldn’t figure outwhy he was only getting a few feet off the ground.

When I moved in on the vision, I saw that he was tethered.He was tied down.And he could only go so high, because someone had tethered him.But by the anointing of God, the tether was broken.The bondage was broken.And that eagle was then allowed to go soaring into the heavenly realms.

It is the enemy’s job to tether you.It’s the enemy’s job to hold you into the earthly realm.But God wants you to be able to soar into the heavenly placesin Christ Jesus.Can you say amen?When you sense in your spirit that something is trying to hold you back, do something about it. Don’t let it go on, but do something about it.Let the Fire of God fall and burn that tetherand loose you from all bondage.

The Ministry of the Seventh Angel

March 23, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Greeley

I feel this so heavy. Don’t know that I’ve ever said it in my life. But I sense the ministry of the Seventh Angel in this house tonight. None other than the Lord Jesus Christ.

If you need healing in your body, reach up. If you can’t weep, reach up. If you can’t smile, reach up. If you need deliverance reach up. The ministry of the Seventh Angel is in this house tonight. (Tongues)

This Is My Visitation

March 23, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Tongues given through Sister Helen Burgess & Interpretation given through Brother Greeley

This is My visitation, says the Lord. This is My visitation. You do not always get to choose the hour that I will visit you. You do not always get to make the choice of whether I will come, after you have been stubborn.

You do not always get the choice whether I will come and touch you again after you have rejected My call. But this is the hour when I am visiting, says the Lord. This is time of your visitation when you can turn to Me.

You can make all well. You can lay everything on the altar. You can place yourself on My altar, says the Lord. And I will accept the sacrifice tonight, because this is the hour and I am making the visitation.

Will you come? Are you willing? Some things are so small. Some things are so big. But I’m willing to take them every one, says the Lord, if you are willing to lay yourself on My altar and give them to Me.

Man cannot change you. Words cannot change you. Laying on of hands cannot change you. But when My Spirit is present, says the Lord, deliverance and help are available for you. So will you come? Will you answer the call that My men servants have made tonight? Will you answer the call? This is My visitation. This is the hour for you, says the Lord.

Sister Marybeth:

I felt the Lord leading me to say and remind everybody of His love. I know this is a serious time. I can feel the fear of the Lord. If He didn’t love you, He wouldn’t be calling you. I want to say that there is nothing, there is nothing worth your soul. There is nothing on this earth worth keeping you away from Him and His love. And He said that He was visiting us. Even if you don’t feel Him calling you, He said it’s His hour of visitation. So reach out to Him.

Coming Forth Bearing Fruit

March 23, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Sister Omilian, Shared by Brother Greeley

Sister Omilian is telling me that she just saw poking through the ground, little stems of flowers. But they weren’t just stems. They had flowers attached to them. Little purple flowers, growing so high. I believe that that’s just another Word the Lord reminding us, babies being born, before they can hit the ground, they’re running full grown. One more time God giving us confirmation. Maturity… Fruit, bearing fruit. Coming out of the ground, bearing fruit. Hallelujah.

The Will of God Be Established in the Middle East

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Prayer given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

We cry out for souls. We cry out for the Bride of Iraq. We call out, oh God, for every Christian in that land that’s fearing for their lives. Oh, would You strengthen them by the Holy Ghost. (Tongues) Would You let there be a seriousness.

Oh God, Israel is so blessed. You’ve let us escape thus far without even a missile, without even an attack. And even though there has been unrest in the territories, You’ve let it be so relatively calm without such loss of lives. We’re so blessed. I even feel spoiled that we have got off so easy.

Would You let this be an hour, not of a nonchalant spirit in the land, but let there be a seriousness, oh God. I pray that the seriousness of Yahwe God would settle over the Knesset today. And oh God, that every military leader, and every political leader in this land would realize the favor of God. And they would recognize that it was not American troops that spared Israel. But it was Your love for this land. It was Your love for this people, oh God, that spared us another time. Oh. (Tongues)

We travail in realms of the Spirit this day, for the will of God to be quickly done in Iraq. Oh. We speak to Syria in the Name of Yahwe God, “Be still. Be still, Syria. Be still, in the Name of God, be still. We command you to be still. You cannot move forward. We command you to be still now and let the will of God.”

We speak to Lebanon. We speak to Hesba, in the Name of Yahwe God. We command you to hold your peace, and do not come against this land or these people. We declare the favor of the Lord again.

“Syria, be still.”

We prophesy to Egypt, “Be quiet. Keep quiet now. Hold your peace in the Name of Yahwe. Hold your peace, Egypt. Oh, and let the will of God be done.” “We speak to Arabia. We speak to Iran. We speak to Turkey, ‘Be quiet now and hold your peace for the will of God to be established in this land. And throughout the Middle East.”

“Oh, we prophesy to the North. We prophesy to the South. We prophesy to the East and to the West. ‘Hold your peace, in the Name of Yahwe, that the will of Yahwe would be established in the Middle East.’” Oh hallelujah.

God, I pray for President Bush, that You would give him dreams in the night. God, torment him that he rest not day or night, until he forsakes the foolish idea. Oh, we thank You that You’ve raised him up for such a time as this.

We thank You that You took a playboy like Tony Blair, and You put something in him that’s caused him to have a backbone. He was once a man that cared what the people thought about him. He was a “pretty boy and a playboy like Clinton.” But God, You put a backbone in him, for such a time as this.

I pray that You’ll give him no rest, day or night, that You’ll let the angels of the Lord poke him until they go all the way. They’ve made a stand for Israel, but they’re not standing all the way. I pray, oh God, as someone spoke to me a few days ago. I pray that You will reveal the Bible, Lord, the Bible-plan, the Word of Almighty God for Israel.

Let it be revealed to George Bush, oh God, in the night. Let him have dreams in the night. Open doors, so that prophetic words can be spoken into his life to let him know that he needs to go all the way, and to protect God’s covenant in this land. Oh Jesus. Oh Jesus.

Oh Jesus, God, I pray for all of the Palestinian people, that You would prosper them as they back away. Oh God, as they begin to take their hands off of Your perfect will, that You will bless them and help them. God, that their children would be fed, and that they would have shelter from the cold.

Oh God, I do not curse the seed of Ishmael. But I bless them in the Name of Yahwe God. But I pray, oh God, that the blessings will begin to come when they take their hands off of that that does not belong to them. Oh God,

Lord, in my natural mind it seems impossible. But You could stir with Your finger. Oh God, with one stirring of Your finger, You could change people’s hearts, and Your eternal purposes could be birthed in them. God, I pray for Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. Oh, that the holy of God…

Arise Ye Mighty Men of Battle

Arise, arise, ye mighty men of battle

Arise, arise, ye mighty men of war

For the Lord your God is fighting in this battle

He’ll not suffer that ye should ever fail

God Spiritually Washing Jerusalem

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I saw Jerusalem and the surrounding areascovered as they are now, with snow.I saw it like a blanket. God’s purity.And it was spiritually washing the city, preparing the city. For instance, if the king was coming to visit, you would make preparations as well.In the natural metropolis,some years ago a portion of the Olympics was held in our city. So they, you know, they washed the light posts and painting.

I saw God doing that to Jerusalem spiritually,washing her, making her pure, for a visitation for the King.And I saw it as it was coming down.Instead of it coming down like snow, it was coming down like a blanket. And then I recognized that it was the Chuppah coming down.It wasn’t snow, it was coming down like a blanket.

The strange part of the vision was, I saw the snow beginning to melt. It was not melting by the light of the sun.(This was very strange.)It was melting by the light of the moon.

And although my first thought was, “That’s so strange,” immediately then I remembered that we have been taught that the moon has no light of its own.The moon is a reflection of the sun.

And the Church, the Bride of Christ, represents the moon.And so this melting, the finishing up of the cleansing and washing, was being accomplished by the Bride of Jesus Christ.Hallelujah. It’s so special.

Shifting from Underneath

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I saw… I’ve had visions before of chess games. I’m not a chess player. But I’ve had visions before of chess games. And I’ve seen divine hands come in and move pawns around, and chess pieces around.

But I just had a vision, and I saw like a chess board, but it seemed as though it was almost electronic. And it seemed as though there was something magnetic moving underneath the board. And the pieces were moving. I saw them moving. But they were moving as though a magnet had come up underneath them on this board. I don’t know if there is any such thing as that. There may be even something like that. I don’t know.

But I could see the magnets. I know what it reminded me of that’ll help you remember. Some of you have seen those little music boxes they used to have, for dressers that have doves on them, and a magnet would move around underneath the ponds or the surface. Maybe a ballerina. Seems like I saw a little ballerina, and a magnet is moving under the surface. You can’t see it. But wherever the magnet goes, the little figure would move.

I saw that in the Spirit. And I saw some tremendous shiftings going on, on the chess board. But the move was not coming from the top like it normally does. It was coming from beneath. And I don’t sense that that is necessarily evil. What I sense is, that it’s so covert, that it’s so hidden and so secret. That God is about to move some things around. Hallelujah.

Oh, I don’t know, you know. I’ve been through a little, one little glitch since I’ve been here, about my strong connections to Zionism. And so I don’t want. I mean, I hope this is just staying here. Right? Not going anywhere, any further than this. But I just saw that it has, that absolutely it has absolutely nothing to do with America, that God is taking Saddam Hussein down. That it is the will of God.

I just saw it so plainly that it is the will of God to topple his regime. And the Lord said that the pieces that they try to put together of this regime, They’ll try to raise up one more wicked than the one of Saddam Hussein. But God said, “If they start into that, that He again will come underneath the surface, and He’ll topple again. That God is not…”

Listen, God is not going to have this people living in a constant state of fear. It’s not the will of God.

Plot Against Prime Minister Sharon

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Oh, I just saw in the Spirit. I just a great attack coming against his person. Oh, we drive back every evil plot, every evil plan of hell. We drive it back. And I pray that a hedge, the same kind of hedge that was placed around Job, would be placed around Prime Minister Sharon. And the President of Israel, we pray for the Mayor of Jerusalem, that every one of those men would be protected by angelic hosts, that no man would be able to penetrate, that no man would be able to prematurely steal their life. Oh, Oh. (Tongues)

Old, Stubborn Men Being Moved Out of the Way

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

And I almost feel a little fear to declare this because, I know very little, really, about the religious situation of this city. But I just saw old… Oh, help me to say this.

I just saw old, stubborn men vanishing. And I hate to say it this way. But I saw rabbis. I know that’s what they were. But I saw old, stubborn men vanishing from the scene, fading like flowers. And God is just going to gather them. You know, I have hope for them. I don’t put them anywhere but in the bosom of Abraham. I just see God gathering them to their fathers. And the reason for it is because of a new day, and a new Spirit, and a new hour.

And God said, “I’m angry. I’m angry with these men because they have stood between Messiah and the people. They’ve stood between Messiah and the people. But I’m going to cause them to begin to vanish and fade like flowers. I’m going to gather them to their fathers. And I’m going to cause a new generation after them of middle-aged men and younger, who will be hungry, so hungry, so desperate, for the Messiah, for the day of the Messiah, that it’ll cause a new day, and a new Spirit, and a new anointing.

And I saw that there are enemies of Judaism from within. Enemies from within. Not only does the Jewish people suffer from the outward enemies, from this spirit of anti-Semitism, but I saw that she’s facing battles from within. and the great division coming from within Judaism.

But God desires to begin to crumble some of those little kingdoms. And I see some exposing going on. I see some uncovering. Sunday, I saw God uncovering corruption in the Christian community in Jerusalem, in the high places of Catholicism, and Orthodox, and all of this. I saw God exposing.

But today I’m seeing a different vision. And I see God beginning to do some exposing in the higher levels of Judaism in the land of Israel. And it’s going to be God’s hand. Hallelujah. And it’s going to usher in that move of God, hallelujah.

And the Lord’s just dealing with me now that it’ll have something to do with His time of sealing that’s coming for the Jewish elect. Hallelujah. Let it be ushered in, oh God. Oh Lord. I’m so hungry and so desperate for the will of God to be done in Jerusalem, That I would pray this prayer for myself, “God, move me out of the way.”

It is not that I would see anybody die or perish, or vanish, or be gathered away. It’s not my desire at all. But I’m so hungry to see God bring deliverance in Jerusalem. That if I were the hindrance, I would be begging, “God, move me. Move me. Remove me, oh God. Whatever the hindrance is.”

I see it again. It’s coming so strongly now. I see old, stubborn men being moved out of the way. Old, stubborn men. And some of these are those old, stubborn men that have opposed the Christian Community, and have been so paranoid. So paranoid about the missionary, and so paranoid about the Messianic Jewish people in this land. I see some of those old men just being gathered away.

Bridge-Builders in the Spirit

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I know that Rabbi Eckstein… Is that how you say it? He’s become a very unpopular man, and made fun of in many circles.

But I was just seeing that what God has used him to do in the natural. He has gathered twenty-million dollars last year. I mean, he’s got to be noticed. The people, they have to notice it. He’s raised 20 million dollars last year from American Christians, and sowed it into the land of Israel.

But I just saw in the Spirit that what he’s accomplishing in the natural, God is going to use men. It has to be men in position like Sister Sonja was speaking about. It has to happen from the inside, almost.

But I saw that the bridge that he’s building is more or less a natural bridge, you know. But God was going to begin to raise up men and women who would help prepare the spiritual way.

And people’s attitudes are changing. Some of the mayors and some of the religious community that didn’t even want the money. They said, “We don’t want the goyim money. We don’t want this Gentiles money.” But they’re having to change their opinions a little bit. Somebody brings 20 million dollars into the land, and you got hungry people in your community, you have to start…

But I just saw that’s a powerful thing that God’s doing in the natural. But there has got to be a spiritual. And there has got to be bridge-builders in the Spirit. Oh God, anoint them. You know where they are. You know where they’re hidden. You know where You’ve placed them. Oh God.

And even we’re blessed because, in so many ways Sister Sonja is one of those people that You placed, oh God, as a bridge-builder in the Spirit realm. We thank You for it. Hallelujah.

An Anointing of Joy & Celebration in Israel

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

And I see that even in the midst… This is a foolish thing for men, man to say. But I see such a joy returning to this land. I know the Bible said there’ll come a time when all the nations of the North will come. I know that. I know the Bible prophesies a great earthquake in Jerusalem. I know what the Bible speaks about this place. But what I see right now is a wave of joy that God desires to restore a time of celebration.

And you know what I just heard? I just heard in the Spirit that God wants to put such a wonderful anointing of joy and celebration, a dancing and victory in Israel for a season. The Lord said it will only be for a season, but it’ll be so wonderful and so sharp, that many of the Jewish people will cry out, “Is this the time of the Messiah? Is this the hour of the Messiah? Is this the day of the Messiah? What has brought such peace?” Hallelujah…

March 24, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Joy in the Land

A Military Mission

March 25, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

…About strange winds. And the farther you got away from the center, Jerusalem being the center. I certainly can have an appreciation for that. But I saw something very strange. I’ve been having different kinds of revelations since I’ve been in Jerusalem. Like my dream the other night, that was more like a movie than a dream. And I just had that kind of a vision, that actually had a plot, a story to it.

I saw that some of us were gathered military, some kind of military mission. And there was some discussion going on among us, how that we would get into this camp. We were standing on a very high mountain. The enemy was camped at the base of the mountain. And there was great discussion on how we would get in, because there was a smaller mountain between us and the enemy. A pass, like a pass.

A tall mountain here, and a mountain there. And a very narrow pass between. And then the enemy was camped at the base of those two mountains, through the pass. And there was great discussion on how we would do it. And the decision was made that we would hang-glide in. I know that sounds strange. I saw the hang-gliders. And the decision was made that we would hang-glide in.

And some of us, having never done anything like that before, we were of course nervous. And I felt very untrained to quality to do it. And yet I knew in my spirit that that was the way.

But all of a sudden, someone began to make a suggestion that we go another way. And it was like a big crate that was sitting over to the side, that I hadn’t noticed before. And several people went over and opened up the crate. It opened up like a box-car. And inside were these machines that looked like contraptions. I’m embarrassed. I’ve embarrassed myself with this, but I’m just telling you what I saw.

And a brother pulled one of these things out. And I don’t know what they’re called, Brother Bill, but I remember reading something one time at a World’s Fair, about a World’s Fair, many years ago, where they released this little prototype of a personal something. A personal something. Do you know what I’m talking about? It straps on. I could see it straps. It had harnesses, where it would cross. And it was like a personal… Is the word “propulsion?” Like a jet propulsion, or something. And it was, it would have been…

There was a discussion going on. And it would have been much more efficient and safer, because we had an ability to do a little bit of steering, even more. And there was some discussion about the wind coming up between this mountain and the other two mountains. Maybe the wind would come up through the pass to push the hang-gliders into the mountain.

But I saw that there was division. And in the division, some decided they would use these personal devices. And they were putting them on. And there was such a fear in me, that I just screamed out. “That is not the right way. That is not the right way. That is dangerous.”

But the argument came back that the hang-gliding was the more dangerous. But anyway, there were three people that took the leap. And I could hear the motor running for a season. And then it stopped. And I could see these people. I didn’t see their destruction, but I saw that there, it wasn’t going to work. And that they were going down. And so then there was great distress among those who were left. And a great fear and a great nervousness.

But I saw in the end it broke, the vision kind of broke. And then I came back into it. And as I came back into it, we were actually hang-gliding. We had actually gone down several, I don’t know how many, but several had actually gone off. And it was almost like the wind was just carrying us with such precision. And all that we had been afraid of, the wind pushing us to one side or whatever, nothing like that happened. And there was great, great precision. And we were just moving in a line, right through this pass, and dropping right down into the camp of the enemy, for whatever God was sending. I’m not going to try to interpret it.

He Who Watches Israel Is Ever Awake

March 26, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

He never slumbers, He never sleeps.

He who watches Israel never slumbers, never sleeps.

He who watches Israel,

He never slumbers and He never sleeps.

He is vigilant. He is ever awake.

He is ever aware of Zion.

His faithful eyes misses nothing.

His faithful ear hears every cry.

He never slumbers, He never, never sleeps.

He who watches Israel.

And with His finger He begins to stir her.

With His own finger the Lord begins to stir her.

He will stir her, He will move her by His mind.

With His mind and with His will He will move her.

With His outstretched arm He will lift her up,

He will lift her up.

He has passed by her in ages past,

And saw her even polluted in her own blood.

He has said unto her, “Live.”

And with His outstretched arm He will raise her up.

He never slumbers, He never sleeps.

He who watches over Israel,

He is awake. He is awake.

He is ever aware.

Nothing escapes His eye.

Nothing escapes His ear.

For He is watching over this land.

I am calling, I am calling.

It is I. It is I.

I am calling. I am calling.

It is I. It is I.

There is a deep, there is a deep calling to the deep.

Never more satisfied,

She shall never be satisfied, for I will stir her.

When she wakes up, she will wake up hungry,

So hungry, says the Lord.

Though she has eaten, when she lieth down.

When she arises she will be hungry.

For I will stir within her a hunger, that she has never known.

No bread shall fill her, not the words of man’s mouth,

Not the things that she has suffered, she shall not be filled, nor satisfied.

But she will reach up to Me for bread that she has never known,

For meat that she has never known, and I will feed her, says the Lord.

She’s… She has become fat, with the words of men of old,

But I shall feed her of My Word.

And she shall know, she shall soon know, that I and My Word are one.

I am one with My Word, My Word is one with Me.

Connection Between Natural & Spiritual Babylon

March 27, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

The Arab Christians are going to become very disillusioned because the church has not been able to protect them,like they’re spiritually counting on it to do so.And I saw that Arab people who are not Christians, will also become disillusioned,at least those who know about this kind of an agreement.

I know it sounds very far-fetched.I’ve never thought of it.It’s never come to me.But it came to me very, very strong. And what I saw was a strong connection between Babylon and Mystery Babylon. I’ve never seen the two so connected as I saw them today in the Spirit. I saw that natural Babylon and spiritual Babylon has a very, very, very strong tie.

Spirit of Islam Defeated

March 27, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem Israel

Hallelujah. We prophesy to Assyria. We prophesy into Persia. Hear the Word of the Lord. Hear the Word of the Lord. There is hope. There is hope. Hope for your children. There is hope for your children. There is hope for your grandchildren. You do not have to be defeated. You do not have to lose your own soul. There is a God who loves you. You’ve been lied to and lied to. Let the Word of the Lord fall upon like rain

Hear the Words of the One true and living God. There is hope for your children, in the living God. We break every fetter. The fetter in the political realm, The fetters in the spiritual realm. The fetters in the natural realm. We come against strongholds over Assyria, And over Persia. Hear the Word of the Lord. We prophesy to the prince of the powers of the air. We prophesy against the prince of Persia, And the prince of Assyria. And we command you to loose your hold on a nation of people that have not known the ways of Yahweh.

They’ve not known the ways of Hashem. But we bind your power, and we rebuke you and resist you. We speak to the Prince of Persia, “The Lord Michael is victorious. The Lord Michael is victorious over you again. In this hour, he shall ultimately defeat you. He shall break your neck, saith the Lord. And you shall know that God is a God of deliverance, and a God of hope. For Michael shall fight in the heavenly realms and shall overcome the spirit of Persia, And the Prince of Assyria, says the Lord. And great revival shall sweep the land of Assyria. And shall sweep the land of Persia. And it shall be because the Prince of the powers of the air Have been ultimately defeated by the One true living God. Oh. (Tongues)

God, we’re not believing You for just a few here and a few there. But we’re believing You for something so great and so glorious, that we read about it. That we hear about it. Oh, that it’s carried on the television. Oh my, how blessed we’ve been, oh God, to see the picture. It’s been e-mailed to me half a dozen times now of soldiers being baptized in the sands of Kuwait, while they were waiting to go to war. And it made the news. And it made the Internet.

And oh God, I want You to know that our faith is looking to You for the same kind of report of a Pentecostal Move of God coming out of the ancient land of Assyria, coming out of the ancient land of Persia. Hear the Word of the Lord that goes forth from Zion unto you. Zion, that you have hated, Zion, that you have despised, Zion, that you have plotted to destroy. The Word of the Lord is unto you. You shall never defeat the City of God. You shall never be able to destroy the land that has been given to the elected seed of Yahweh. But you don’t have to be defeated, said the Lord. You don’t have to die in your sins. You don’t have to die in your trespasses.

For the Lord is nigh unto you this day. And He extends to you, oh Assyria. Oh Persia, hear the Word of the Lord. He extends the scepter towards you. Not because you have deserved it. Not because you’re worthy. But because of His love.

For the Lord would say unto thee, I have turned My face from your ignorance. I have turned My face from your hatred. I have ignored the spirit that you’ve been under, Because I loved you. I shall ultimately break the bands from your neck, and the spirit of Islam shall be defeated in your territory. And you shall come to the place where you will no longer fight Zion. You will no longer fight Zion, but you shall dwell peacefully in the land, says the Lord. Hallelujah. (

For Jesus shall crush your neck. It shall be broken, Because He loves you. Because He loves You. Because He loves you. He shall remove your veil. You shall know Him not through a veil, but face-to-face. You shall behold the Lord’s salvation.

For yea, there shall be a turning, says the Lord, in the war. There shall be a turning not many days hence. You shall know that I am winning the victory, saith the Lord. For there shall be great defeat and great retreat. For I shall not suffer it to drag on for months and months and months. But I shall begin to bring a victory, saith the Lord. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah

And yea, the Lord would say unto thee this day, You shall know My blessings and you shall know My prosperity here, Because you have dared to desire to stand in the gap. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have sought for a man that would stand in the gap and make up the hedge. And because you have desired thus, because you have desired to pray and to prophesy, and to declare and to stand, said God, You shall know My favor. You shall know My blessings. You shall know My prosperity

For the Lord would say unto thee, Look not to the right or the left, and do not fear from this day forward. For I shall fight for you, saith the Lord. I shall lead you ultimately and direct you. And I shall not suffer this ministry to be defeated or to be hindered. It shall not receive a fatal blow, says the Lord. But for every blow that the enemy would desire to bring against you, You shall abound. You shall rebound, and you shall rise above it, saith the Lord.

For I will send revival. Oh yes. I will blow over you, saith the Lord, with such a sovereign breath of My mouth, That you will know. Yea, you say you know, but you will know, saith the Lord, that it is I, the Living God, In the midst of thee.

And no spirit shall be able to defeat My Presence. And yea, those who criticize now will come to drink, saith the Lord. And those who are not willing to pay the price, will reconsider, said God, when they begin to see the abundance and the deliverance, And the blessing in this place. For I shall fill up this House with hungry hearts. And you shall spill out into the yard, saith the Lord.

I shall cause you to enlarge your borders.You shall go forth in the growth and the prosperity of the Lord.And the blessings shall fall upon every individual that sows,whether it be a dollar, whether it be thousands of dollars.Whatever is placed into your hands,from where it comes, I will bless.And men and women will know that the blessing they have received is because they have blessed this ministry in Zion,said the Lord. Hallelujah… (Tongues)

Great revival in Kuwait.Great revival in Iran, hallelujah,in Jordan.Along the Nile shall be revival.Along the Tigris shall be revival.Along the Euphrates shall be revival,In whatever city, whatever town,whatever village these rivers shall reach,they shall know the river and My Glory.For I prophesy to the Tigris. I prophesy to the Nile.And I prophesy to the Euphrates.Hear the Word of the Lord.You shall carry revival to every city, to every town,and to every village that drinks from your banks, says the Lord.

The Time of Consecration

March 27, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Prepare thyself, prepare thyself

For the greater, says the Lord

Do no look upon only things

Do not allow yourselves to look on…

Do not allow yourselves

To focus on possessions

For they shall all crumble and pass away

Houses will fall and turn to ashes

But what I have for you is greater, says the Lord

Prepare thyself for the greater, says the Lord

Higher ground, higher, higher ground

I shall lead you by the Pillar of fire to higher ground

Do not camp too long in Kadesh Barnea

For I have higher ground, higher ground, says the Lord

Do not fear man nor all those would rail against thee

For I shall fight on your behalf

But do not allow yourself to focus on the temporal

For it shall surely pass

One day it will surely pass

You are a part of My eternal program

For I have raised you up

Yes, I have raised you up

And there is nothing that can pluck you from My plan

You shall accomplish that which I have called thee forth to do

Do not even look upon that which is vain

And that which is earthly, says the Lord

Do not worry from whence comes your bread

For I shall feed you, oh I shall feed you

For you are My tabernacle and it is in thee I dwell

Not in this place, not in this house

For I say unto thee, you shall know the greater

Prepare thyself, prepare thyself

For there shall surely come a move

I will not tell you now, whether it is in the carnal

Or only in the Spirit

But you shall move and you shall go forth

Led by My hand, led by My hand

Preparing the Spiritual Way

March 27, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Hallelujah. But I just saw in the Spirit that what he’s accomplishing in the natural, God is going to use men…

It has to be men in a position like Sister Sonja was speaking about. It has to happen from the inside, almost. But I saw that the bridge that he’s building is more or less a natural bridge, you know. But God was going to begin to raise up men and women who would help prepare the spiritual way. And people’s attitudes are changing.

Some of the mayors and some of the religious community that didn’t even want the money… They said, “We don’t want the Goyim money. We don’t want this Gentile money.” But they’re having to change their opinions a little bit.

Somebody brings 20 million dollars into the land, and you got hungry people in your community, you have to start… But I just saw that’s a powerful thing that God’s doing in the natural. But there’s got to be a spiritual. And there’s got to be bridge-builders in the Spirit. Oh God, anoint them. You know where they are.

You know where they’re hidden. You know where You’ve placed them. Oh God.

Revealing a Perfect Plan in Fulness

March 28, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophecy given through Brother Jonathan Hollis

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee this night. I am revealing a perfect plan, saith the Lord. And yea, I have builded down through the century, saith God. Down through the ages, and to My prophets in part. And yea, in these last days I’m revealing not in part, saith the Lord, but in whole, unto My Bride.

For yea, I shall have a Bride that she’ll walk in “the know,” saith the Lord. She shall not be uninformed. But yea, she shall walk in the know. And she shall know My divine plan for that moment. Yea, for that season, and for the season to come, saith the Lord.

Yea, rejoice in the fact, saith God, that you are a part of that Bride. And yea, you shall know, saith the Lord. For you shall walk in the Spirit of revelation. Yea, a Spirit of revelation, saith the Lord. For even in this place a great Word shall go forth. And it’s going forth in this hour, saith the Lord.

Yea, a Word of knowledge, saith the Lord, a Word of revelation. And it shall go out to the nations, saith the Lord, even from this place. Even from this place, saith the Lord, great revelation. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

The Time Is Short

March 30, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Enzo Salvador

I keep hearing the Lord talking about time. We all walk with the Lord and we’re making progress. But I keep getting this, the time is short. That God is running out of patience. He’s not… He wants us to get more aggressive in our walk with Him and stop being so passive against the enemy.

He wants us to make progress faster, because He wants us to accomplish those things that He has called us to accomplish. We have to stop sitting back and just letting the enemy have it’s way. He wants us to push in, to push in, to push in.

Utterly Destroy the Enemy

March 30, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Sister Carmen Lanier

I’m sorry. This morning when Sister Anita was singing that song… Since I read in the Scripture this weekend, it’s just been in my spirit. And it’s like, God caused it to be quickened. But it was where the Israelites, when they were told to go to battle, the Lord spoke to them and told them to utterly destroy the enemy. That meant the men, the women, the children, that they were to wipe it all out.

And the Lord just keeps pressing it upon my heart. And I’ve asked, “What more…? What is it that I’m supposed to say?” But it’s like, we have taken the big things and we have utterly destroyed those. But we would take compassion upon smaller things. Or we would keep them close to us.

But it’s… I keep… In my spirit, there’s even more that… What Brother Enzo said about that all being bored. That person decided to have that bored in their ear, because they had grown accustomed and they liked that which was over them.

But Sis. Jan read a promise to me right before I came in this service tonight. And the Lord brought it to my mind while we were praying for Sis. Amanda. But I’m not just speaking it just to Sis. Amanda. But she said that the Lord spoke and said that as soon as we… I’m sorry.

As soon as we meet the requirements, that God would cause our deliverance, just to come speedily. And those requirements as spiritual Jews are to take the sword into our hand and to utterly destroy those things. And not to save back anything.

Do Not Be Attached to Your Dwelling Place

April 1, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Prepare thyself, prepare thyself

For the greater, says the Lord.

Do not look upon only things.

Do not allow yourselves to look on…

Do not allow yourselves to focus on possessions,

For they shall all crumble and pass away.

Houses will fall and turn to ashes.

But what I have for you is greater, says the Lord.

Prepare thyself for the greater, says the Lord.

Higher ground, higher, higher ground.

I shall lead you by the Pillar of Fire to higher ground.

Do not camp too long in Kadesh Barnea,

For I have higher ground, higher ground, says the Lord.

Do not fear man nor all those who would rail against thee,

for I shall fight on your behalf.

But do not allow yourself to focus on the temporal.

For it shall surely pass. One day it will surely pass.

You are a part of My eternal program.

For I have raised you up. Yes, I have raised you up.

And there is nothing that can pluck you from My plan.

You shall accomplish that which I have called thee forth to do.

Do not even look upon that which is vain,

and that which is earthly, says the Lord.

Do not worry from whence comes your bread,

for I shall feed you. Oh, I shall feed you.

For you are My tabernacle, and it is in thee I dwell.

Not in this place. Not in this house.

For I say unto thee, you shall know the greater.

Prepare thyself. Prepare thyself.

For there shall surely come a move.

I will not tell you now, whether it is in the carnal,

or only in the Spirit.

But you shall move, and you shall go forth

led by My hand. Led by My hand.

Take up your tent pegs, saith the Lord.Remove thy stakes, and do not be attached to your dwelling place. For I shall lead you forth beyond the Jordan.And you shall know the greater, says the Lord. For there are many who cannot turn loose of the past, and they would desire to revive yesterday.But it shall never be that way, for I have moved on, says the Lord.

The simplicity of yesterday is gone forevermore.It shall never be revived. It shall never be again. There is a new day that has dawned in Jerusalem. No longer dawning. No longer dawning.But there is a new day that has dawned in Jerusalem. Those from the past who struggle for this place, oh, they have missed. Yes, they have missed. They desire to revive that which is gone,and it shall never live again.

But unto you I say, be ready to follow at a moment’s notice. Be ready to remove thy tent,and flee into the place where I shall call thee,says the Lord. And even if it is My will,and I should allow you to remain in this place, it shall never, never be the same.

For when this battle is over, and it shall be over,saith the Lord.No matter how the enemy would desire to drag it out,I shall one day soon speak, it is enough.And when I have said, it is enough,it shall be over, says the Lord.And even if you should continue to dwell in this place,it shall never be the same. It shall never be the same again.

For I have ordained this work as a center for revival, and the nations shall come, and they shall pray, and they shall receive of Me.For I tell you of a time and I tell you of an hour, when again multitudes shall fill this land. And I will have you placed, whether it be here or another place. I shall have you positioned, both in the natural and the spiritual, to receive the nations of the world.

Do not fear the verdict of man, for you shall go in when I say, “Go in.” And you shall go out, when I say, “Go out.“You shall have favor with those that you need to have favor with,for I will do it, says the Lord.

Wrong Spirit Exposed

April 2, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I just feel that somehow in the Spirit that through all of this that’s about to take place, there is going to be such an exposing, the spirit that’s a work and the [Ed., Incomplete audio]that’s involved. And this individual, and these who are supporting her, are going to be exposed. I believe it’s going to be so exposed.

It may not be in a judgment of a judge that it’s exposed. But I think it’s going to be very known, very open, that a wrong spirit is involved. And I do believe… I’ll say this much. I do believe that if God should stand back and allow her to possess this house and this property, that she will not be able to enjoy it.

She will not [Ed., Incomplete audio]Maybe something will come after her. It may be that God will give it to her because He has something else for us. But I sense very strongly that she will not have health to [Ed., Incomplete audio]

And I’m not one who likes to pronounce judgment. In fact, you don’t really have to. People pronounce judgment on themselves by the foolish things they do. And I do not believe if it should happen, I’ll state, if it should happen that God would turn aside and let her possess this land, I do not believe she’ll have the health to enjoy.

That’s very sad. More so now than ever, I find it very sad.

Whirlwinds on Earth Responding to Heaven’s Activity

April 2, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Sister Nancy Bergen | Jerusalem, Israel

My plans are glorious, glorious. Glorious

Lift up your eyes and you can see them.

Glorious, glorious…

My plans do not lie upon the earth,

My plans lie in the heavens

It is there that you must look in order to see them written.

That which you see on the earth is not of Me.

But the plans that you see written in the heavens,

They are Mine, says the Lord.

And they are glorious, glorious beyond your expectations

Beyond your imagination.

They are wondrous to behold.

Let your head be in the heavens

Don’t worry about what your feet must walk through

Keep your head in the heavens

Look to see what I am doing upon the earth.

Listen, and you will hear the sound of heaven.

Speak, that which you hear Me say to you.

For I’m revealing Myself in the heavenlies unto you.

Take what you hear, take what you see,

Take what you perceive from the heavenlies

Bring it forth in the earth.

Your eyes must be lifted up unto Me

I will show you and touch your heart for the great things to come.

More than you can imagine.

More than your heart can hold.

For the wondrous things that I have planned,

Coming up very soon. If there’s turmoil,

Yes, there’s conflict, if there is confusion ,

It’s part of the stirring that heaven stirs the atmosphere

Oh, when the angels move their wings,

Sets up a disturbance in the earth

Heaven’s activity creates something on the earth.

There’s a churning, there’s a turning,

Oh there are whirlwinds on the earth

Responding to heaven’s activity.

Oh, be caught in the heavens.

Don’t be concerned about the earthly.

But hold on to the Words of thy God,

And thou shalt see mighty things, mighty things,

Mighty things appearing.

Revelations coming forth, forth from the heavenlies.

Stirring the Heavens

April 2, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Sister Nancy Bergen | Jerusalem, Israel

I’ve also seen all these turmoil happening in the earth. But in the heavens such activity. It was symbolized by the moving of the angels’ wings. And it was like the heavens were being stirred at God’s command. And as the. I thought it was symbolically, but as the angels were moving their wings at the Lord’s command, it was causing these whirlwinds and this stirring up down below.

But it as all, the stirring up and everything was all part of this great heavenly plan. This was glorious plan, beginning to, continually being unfolded. And I saw us with our feet on the earth, and the whirlwinds and stuff were, you know, were kind of whisking around our feet and our legs, and whatever. But our heads were in the heavens. We were seeing the plan. We were listening to His voice and watching what He was doing, speaking.

And so it was like, with our bodies, so to speak, we were having to endure the whirlwinds. But it was all part of His great plan as He is stirring the heavens. And the whirlwinds on the earth was just a function of that. But we were keeping, you know, the portion of ourselves that was important in the heaven, to be able to interpret what’s going on and not to be concerned by what’s going on. But recognizing it is all part of His great plan for these wondrous things, which He said were going to be beyond what we could understand, and beyond our imaginings and our expectations.

And so what it’s like, when we see the whirlwinds, we should expect, but that’s because there’s great things happening in the heavens. And so we’re just enduring in the natural because of the spiritual things.

Lord of the Harvest

April 2, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Sister Nancy | Jerusalem, Israel

…the Lord of the Harvest. He is the Lord of the Harvest. He is the Lord of the Harvest, so He can bring the crop to its full maturity.

And His work is being carried on. And I saw it wasn’t just the work in Jerusalem, it was the work that has been going on in Columbus. And you know, the full maturity of that work hasn’t come to fruition until it could come here. And also, what has been happening here.

And so I just saw He was the Lord of the Harvest. He knew how to bring it to its full maturity. And He wasn’t about to just leave His work. It has to come forth into its full maturity.

Spreading His Mantle of Redemption

April 2, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I saw in a vision earlier, before Sister Nancy started to sing, I saw the Lord standing very, very tall. Very tall. I don’t know how to describe how tall, but so tall, that He had one foot in Sheikh Jarrah, and one up like this, against the hill in Givat Zafartit. He was stretched. The right foot in, it would have been. He was standing like this. The left foot was flat, and the other foot was turned up like that against the hill. And I saw that He had on some kind of mantle. It didn’t look like a Tallit, but maybe that’s what it represented. But it looked more rough, like a mantle around His shoulders.

He took the mantle off, and He laid it over this property in Sheikh Jarrah. I saw it so very plainly. He just laid it over the top. And the Lord took me to the Scripture that we ministered on just recently, from the Book of Ruth. And so let me read this verse to you that we shared the other night. And then I’ll tell you the rest of it. This is in a translation from the Torah, or from the Book of Ruth.

Naomi, her mother-in-law, said to her, “My daughter, I must seek security for you that it may go well with you. Listen real close to the circumstances of what we’re facing right now and what Ruth was facing. They’re similar. Naomi, her mother-in-law, said to her, “My daughter, I must seek security for you, that it may go well with you. Now Boaz, our relative with whose maidens you have been, will be winnowing barley tonight on the threshing floor.

Therefore, bathe and anoint yourself. Dawn your finery and go down to the threshing floor. But do not make yourself known to the man until he has finished eating and drinking. And when he lies down, note the place where he lies. And go over and uncover his feet and lie down. He will tell you what you are to do.

She replied, “All that you say to me, I will do.” So she went down to the threshing floor and did everything as her mother-in-law instructed her.

Boaz ate and drank, and his heart was merry. He went to lie down at the end of the grain pile and she came stealthily, uncovered his feet, and laid down. In the middle of the night the man was startled and turned about. There was a woman lying at his feet.

“Who are you, he asked. And she answered, “I am your handmaid Ruth. Spread your robe over your handmaid, for you are a redeemer.”

And he said, “Blessed, be blessed of Hashi, my daughter. You have made your latest act of kindness greater than the first, in that you have not gone after the younger men. Be they poor or rich. And now, my daughter, do not fear. Whatever you say, I will do for you. For all the men in the gate of my people know that you are a worthy woman. Now while it is true that I…

…recognize another, for he said, “Let it not be known that a woman came to the threshing floor.” And he said, “hold out the shawl you are wearing and grasp it.” She held it and he measured out six measures of barley and set it on her. Then she went into the city. She came to her mother-in-law who said, “How did things stand with thee, my daughter?”

So she told her all that the man had done for her. And she said, “He gave me these six measures of barley. For he said to me, ‘do not go empty handed to your mother-in-law.‘Then she said, “Sit patiently, my daughter, until you know how the matter will turn out. For the man will not rest unless he settles the matter today.”

When I saw the Lord placing this mantle across this property and it stretch… You know, it wasn’t just this property. It stretched this way to also toward where we’re living. And then I saw the Lord reach almost behind Himself and pull out a huge sheaf of grain. And He extended it this way toward us, or toward me in this vision.

And I can just see the Lord. Something is being redeemed in the Spirit. I don’t know if it’s… I don’t know. You know, I want to know. I’ve asked the Lord, “Lord, tell me. You know, if it’s this property or if it’s not…” I still don’t have that answer. But I believe that by the Lord showing me, He Himself spreading His mantle, it is a sign of redemption and He is redeeming His Bride.

And he said “For the people know that you’re a worthy woman.” And I think that’s the testimony that God’s going to give us. We in ourselves are not worthy. But in our desire to be holy and like Him, He sees us as worthy. So there is a redemption going on. I don’t know if it’s the redemption of the land, or if it’s just a promise to this ministry, that God is going to take care of us.

But the one thing that’s a little disturbing is, that the Lord was not facing Jerusalem. He was facing that way. And that part I don’t understand exactly, because I think the Lord’s face is always towards Jerusalem. But He was not standing, facing this Old City of Jerusalem, He was facing that way. His left foot very flat on Sheikh Jarrah. And His right foot up against the hill like that. But I believe there’s a meaning. Maybe the Lord will give somebody else some further interpretation.

I had some more to share, but a little interrupted and lost some of it. But I believe it is certainly a type that the Lord is redeeming us,and that we’re laying at His feet.That’s the most wonderful place in all the world to be, is to know that you’re laying at His feet.And He was just spreading His shawl over Ruth.

So today, in the Spirit, I believe we’re all Ruths.God is using us and calling us to be Ruths.And I think He wants us to be ever aware that He is spreading His shawl, His mantle over us and covering us.And if the Lord is covering you…

You know, we can look to man to redeem us.Here was a man who was a closer relative,who should have taken the responsibility.Rightfully, the closer relative should have been the kinsman redeemer, but he wasn’t interested in the job. And so Boaz stepped up and he took…And it was in the ordination of God,because we know that it was from King David, it was because of King David it was to come.

So let’s just be very mindful and very aware that we’re Ruths today, and that God is spreading His mantle of favor on us, and redeeming us. Hallelujah. And the grain that God has extended to us, is another sign of His favor, and it’s a sign of His provision.

And I want to tell you,it’s not six portions as it was in this chapter, because we’ve already received a portion.But God is giving us the seventh portion, the complete, the total picture. God desires to give us the fullness.

The Battle Belongs to the Lord

April 3, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Song Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

You are faithful, You are faithful, You are so faithful to me.

You are faithful, You’ve been faithful, You’ve been so faithful to me.

You are a faithful God.

There is no shadow of turning with You.

No shadow of turning in You. You are faithful, faithful to me.

You’re the God of the battle.

The battle belongeth not to Your children.

But the battle, the battle belongeth unto Thee.

Will You fight, Lord. Will You fight, Lord.

For the battle belongeth to Thee.

It is bigger than us. It is bigger than us.

It is bigger than our minds could even comprehend.

But it is not bigger than You. No, it is not bigger than You.

Will You fight, Lord? Will You ultimately defeat Your enemy?

(Tongues) Hallelujah…

May there be new life and new breath.

May we draw Your breath, oh God.

Would You breathe on us; would You breathe on us.

We will not fear.

We will not be afraid of the cunningness of the enemy.

How he slips around in darkness to lay a trap for us.

Yea, we will not be afraid, for our hope is in the God of Israel.

You are our hope and our confidence is in You.

You will not suffer us to be cast down.

You are our victory. You are our victory.

The Lord Yahweh is our Banner.

The Lord Yahweh, the Lord Yahweh is our banner.

You are Yahweh Nissi. You are the Lord, our banner.

I could see, oh God, waving the banner of victory. Hallelujah.

It was not a banner of surrender.

It was not a banner of retreat.

No, no, no. But it was the banner of victory.

Not a white flag. Not a white flag of surrender.

Not a white flag of defeat, or even retreat.

But the banner that was in Your hand,

It was a banner of victory.

To proclaim Your Holiness,

To proclaim Your Holiness and Your faithfulness to Israel.

For even the stranger within her gates,

Shall know the faithfulness of her God.

Even the stranger within her gates.

Even the stranger shall know the faithfulness of the God of Israel.

And He shall fight for her. For whosoever calleth upon His Name.

I saw the Lord Yeshua, riding out to meet the battle.

Thank You, Lord. Thank You, Lord…There is no retreat in You. Hallelujah.I heard the Voice of the Spirit saying, “I will meet this challenge.” Hallelujah. “I will meet this challenge.” Praise the Lord.

The Battle Is the Lord’s

April 3, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Jonathan Hollis | Jerusalem, Israel

The battle is the Lord’s.

Oh, the battle is the Lord’s.

I will not fear what man can do.

For the Lord is on our side.

Yes, the Lord is on our side. Hallelujah.

The Lord, My Banner

April 3, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Praise the Lord, Adoni, Nissi.

You are Adoni Nissi, the Lord, my Banner.

You are Adoni Nissi, Adoni Nissi, the Lord, my miracle.

My miracle, my miracle. You are my miracle.

While the rest of you are waiting, Sister Nancy, I felt led to do this the other day, and I didn’t do it. When Jonathan, you were reading about Hezekiah and Sennechareb, I think it was you who was talking about the other day about spreading petition out before the Lord.

We kept one of the petitions. Didn’t we? We left one with the lawyer? Don’t we have one of the petitions either with my name on it, or your name on it? Would you get it? Hallelujah. You see, I’ve been in the land six weeks, and I’m already known in the court system.

What was the Jewish word they used for the mess, is that what they said. Yea, aboligon. He said, I’ve gotten myself into a aboligon.

Remove the Veil

April 3, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

But I could just see the Lord. I’m not one who, you know, my visions aren’t as poetic as most people’s. But I could see the Lord just riding out to the battle, and I could hear a voice going with Him, saying, “I will meet this challenge.” Hallelujah. Who shall fear, who shall be afraid? If the Lord of Host, if the Lord…

I will go before you. I will go before you. (Hallelujah.)

I know Sister Nancy and myself both have been, we felt the uneasiness of the flesh to have to testify. Neither one of us would want to have to say a word. There is just a pressure that comes. The pulpit is one thing, but a courtroom is another. There is just a pressure that comes on.

But I could just see and sense and hear the Lord say,

I will go before you. I will prepare the way.

I will create even an atmosphere of confusion over the enemy. (Hallelujah. Tongues)

I will meet the challenge. You shall not meet it alone. (Tongues)

The Lord is strong in battle, mighty to conquer.

Not willing that any should perish,

But that all should come to the knowledge of soul salvation.

Oh God, is it too late? Lord, if it’s not too late, we implore You. If it’s not too late, we implore You, oh God, to remove the veil that the enemy has sent to blind those who have once walked in a righteous way. Oh God, if it’s not too late, would You remove the veil even this day?

Remove the veil. (Tongues)

God, if it’s not too late, remove the veil. Hallelujah. We told You again and again, Lord, that if this is not for us, we don’t want it. If this is not our address, if it’s not our location, we don’t want it.

But, oh God, if all the years of sowing into the heavens and all the labor, and all the sacrifice that Sister Ruth has made. If any of that, if any of that blessing should fall upon us, then we don’t want to run quickly away. We want to stand. Hallelujah. God said,

I’m looking for a Shamah. I’m looking for a Shamah.

I’m looking for someone who will stand to defend the piece of ground.

(Tongues) Oh hallelujah. In the South of America, we used to preach this message, and we used to say,

I’ve left this pea-patch for the last time.

I’ve run away every time the Philistines have come,

I’ve run with all of Israel.

But this time I’m going to stand with my sword drawn,

even if I stand alone to defend that which belongeth unto the Lord.

Lord, if You have chosen this place for another ministry, then we yield ourselves. We bow before You, oh God, for we do not fight flesh and blood. And if it is something else greater than what we could accomplish, that You would have for this House, we yield ourselves. For we are mortals and we’re broken. But, oh God, if You’re calling us to stand and to defend, give us grace and give us strength.

Lord, at this moment we don’t even know where the finances will come to even pay the lawyer to do what he desires to do. But God, we don’t want to be involved in this stuff. This is not what You’ve called us to. You’ve called us to the service of The King.

Oh God, and we’ve tried to be faithful in that that You’ve called us to. And these kinds of things make us feel dirty. We don’t like the feeling of dirtiness; we don’t like the feeling of the struggle. Oh, but God, we’re willing to struggle. We’re willing to fight. We’re willing to labor for that that You would desire. Oh God, let there not be a coward among us. But let us have the faith of Abraham. Oh Jesus. (Tongues)

God, I ask You to drop for the people today, drop words of revelation. Drop words of encouragement. Drop words of wisdom and leadership. We are not know-it-alls. God, we’ve shown You over the years that we’re not know-it-alls. We don’t know it all. And we’re willing to receive from whoever You speak through.

Oh God, let it be someone who lives a righteous life. And if we can see and discern that there’s a life behind it, we’ll listen. God, we have an ear to hear, no matter what and who You choose. Whatever vessel You would use, we’re willing, oh God, to hear. We’re willing to hear. Keep our ears tuned. Keep our ears tuned. Hallelujah.

Would You just wave Your arm for a moment? Just wave Your arm before the Lord. Hallelujah.

Give me ears to hear.

Give me eyes to see.

Give me a spirit to receive.

Oh God, we need to be refreshed. We need to be renewed. We need a second breath. We used to call it, “I’m getting my second wind.”

Lord, send the second wind of Your Spirit into this House today, to give us what we need. We release stress. We give it back to hell. Hell is where stress comes from. We give all the stress and the strain back to hell. And we receive the peace of Yahweh. We receive the peace of Yeshua. Oh, we receive the peace of the God of Israel. Hallelujah… (Tongues)

Spiritual Surgery to Make More Room for Me

April 4, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

For the Lord is saying into my spirit,I will go beneath the skin.I will go beneath the flesh, saith the Lord.And I will reach down into the depth of the depth of your inner being. I, the living God,will begin to pluck out that thing that holds you,saith the Lord.

I will begin to remove it even with the skill of a surgeon, saith the Lord,will I cut it out and remove it.And the Lord would say unto thee, I shall not leave thee with an empty spot,but I shall fill it with more of Me, saith the Lord.

For all that I remove from thee this night,I will fill with Me.And you shall know more of Me, saith the Lord.You shall know more of My Glory, and more of My peace.For I shall replace that thing that has taken up space within thee and I shall fill you with Me,saith the Lord. Hallelujah.

With victory. With victory you shall go forth.You shall go forth with victory, saith the Lord.For I have not brought you this way in vain.I have not allowed you to pass through this place for naught.For I have brought you this way to work a work of perfection in thee, saith the Lord.

Some of you have questioned in your heart, “How did I ever wind up in this place?“But the Lord would say unto thee,I brought you here to operate on you, saith God.To cut into your spiritand remove all the things that have hardened thee. Yea, again I shall replace it with Me, with Me, with Me. With Me, with Me.

Despise not your time in surgery, saith the Lord. Despise not the hospital that I brought you to. Oh, for I shall use this place, saith the Lord.For I shall use you, saith the Lord, to continue to minister in this city.You shall be used.even as a hospital and a house of deliverance.

For the Lord would say unto thee,there are places of intercession.There are places of prayer,and there are places of worship.Yea, all of these things shall be a part of you, saith the Lord.

But I’m looking for a new place.Yea, I’m looking for a new move in Jerusalem. Not another place of worship,not another place of prayer,not another place of music or intercession.But yea, I’m looking for a house of deliverance.

For yea, it is My will, saith God,to raise up a house of deliverance in Jerusalem.For have I not spoken in My Word and saidthat in Zion, in Zion, in Zion there shall be deliverance?

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee,there shall go forth a Word out of this place.Yea, there shall go forth a Word from out from among the midst of thee, that shall cut with the swiftness of a sword, saith the Lord.

It shall cause many to stumble to the right and to the left. But it shall not return unto Me void.For it shall accomplish that which it is sent forth to do. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, the power of regeneration shall be in that Word.

And I shall cause a great regeneration to come upon My people. And they shall be changed by the power of regeneration,and by the power of transformation,saith the Lord. And it shall be a supernatural work.And it shall be a sign unto theethat I have not brought thee this way in vain.

For I shall bring many into this ministry,saith the Lord.And then I shall send them forth back into their nations,and into other nations from whence they have not been born. And they shall carry deliverance with them, saith the Lord.

For deliverance shall not only be in Zion,but it shall flow forth from Zion.Deliverance shall flow forth from Zion like a river. Like a river, saith the Lord. Not a river of feeling,not a river of emotion, but a river of change.For even out of the midst of thee, and from thy belly shall flow a river of change.A river. (Tongues)

I feel that quickening.I quoted that scripture that said,you’ll know you’re saved by the quickening in your spirit. I feel that quickening spirit from the hand of the Lord. Oh. Hallelujah.A new day, a new day, a new day, a new dayis not dawning, it has dawned.A new day has dawned.A new day.A new day. A new day has dawned.

For I shall give unto thee an oasis in the desert.And I shall give thee to drink from a well that thou hast not ever, never drank from before.Oh, for I am a well. I am a well.And there are many waters in Me, saith the Lord,waters that flow forth for different purposes,saith God.And it is all Me, and it is all water,but it is water for purpose.

And yea, you shall drink of water for a new purpose, for a new purpose,for a new purpose, saith the Lord. I shall give you water for a new purpose.And you shall never be satisfied in the old purposes. For you shall reach forth even tonightfor the new purposes of the Lord.(Tongues) Hallelujah.

I could sense in my spirit the Holy Ghost was laughing in me. I remember in the days of Pentecost in our little church,they used to have what they called a holy laughter.And it was God. It was the Holy Ghost laughing through people. Wasn’t just laughing because they felt something, it was God laughing through them.

I could just sense the Lord’s favor.And I could sense that the Holy Ghost was laughing in me. Oh hallelujah.I can’t explain it, because I don’t always understand it.But I know when it’s God. Hallelujah.

Just draw us into Your arms, oh God, tonight.Draw us. Draw us.Some of us need to feel the strength of God.We need to be reminded of His strong and mighty arm. The same arm that brings judgment upon the earth is the same arm that God extends for you to lean on,to lay on, to hold onto when you need stability. Hallelujah.

I will be your stability.My arm is extended. I have extended My arm.Catch on, catch on. Catch on, catch on, says the Lord. I have extended My arm, My arm of stability.Catch on, catch on, catch onto My arm.

Called to the Land to Stand in the Gap

April 5, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I feel led of the Spirit to tell youthat some of you have been called to the landfor such a time as this,to be one of those gap-standers,to be one of those breach-menders,to be one of those that would stand in the hedgeand make up the weakness, the breach, the opening in the wall.

Oh God, help us to close up the wall.If we don’t, if we don’t,the enemy’s going to come in.He’s going to take his prey and his victim. Oh God, encourage those who are discouraged. Those who are wondering why they’re here. And God’s just putting in my spirit to say don’t you look back.Don’t you look back like Lot’s wifeto Sodom and Gomorrah.

But if you know that you’ve heard from God,and you’re moving in that direction toward God,don’t let anything distract you or cause you to turn back. But you stand. Stand.

God is calling some to stand in this land.And don’t you look back.Don’t look back to the things that you’ve left behind you. But you let God plant you deeply in this soilfor the work that the Lord has called you to do. Hallelujah.

Angels Moving in Divine Synchronization

April 5, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I wanted to share with you that as we were singing that song,I had this experience one timeright after Jonathan began to sing this in our church.I had an experience,and I’ve just had almost the same experience before, in vision.

I saw angels.And I see lots of things, but I’m not one to see a lot of angels. I appreciate those who do.But I saw a great host of angels moving in the heavenly realm. And the thing that was so beautiful to me is, they were moving in such divine synchronization to the beat of this song.

I remember one of the first times Jonathan ever sang it.I stood up and told the church that I saw these angels.I knew that God had given him this little song.And the way I knew it is, that the angels were marching and moving. But it was a very strange march.

It wasn’t like this kind of march,but it was, it was a different kind of movement altogether. They were marching and bowing at the same time. They would make a step and bow like that,and make another step and bow like that.I don’t know. I can’t do it. But just to show you, they would make a step and bow like that. And lift up, and make a step and bow like that.

But they were moving in such synchronization to the beat, to the tempo of the music. But I was just seeing tonightthat there is such activity in heaven because of these things.Because of this great controversy that’s risen, there is such movement. Hallelujah.

I like to be involved with somethingthat’s causing a disturbance in heaven.And I mean disturbance in a good sense of the word.And I could just see those angels taking a step and making a quick bow, and another step and making a quick bow.And they were doing it in the time of the music, hallelujah.I just had to share that.

Divine Synchronization

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Even in the midst of the distraction I wanted to share with you that as we were singing that song, I had this experience one time right after Jonathan began to sing this in our church. I had an experience and I’ve just had almost the same experience before, in vision.

I saw angels. And I see lots of things, but I’m not one to see a lot of angels. I appreciate those who do. But I saw a great host of angels moving in the heavenly realm. And the thing that was so beautiful to me is, they were moving in such divine synchronization to the beat of this song.

I remember one of the first times Jonathan ever sang it. I stood up and told the church that I saw these angels. I knew that God had given him this little song. And the way I knew it is, that the angels were marching and moving. But it was a very strange march. It wasn’t like this kind of march, but it was, it was a different kind of movement altogether.

They were marching and bowing at the same time. They would make a step and bow like that and make another step and bow like that. I don’t know. I can’t do it. But just to show you, they would make a step and bow like that. And lift up and make a step and bow like that.

But they were moving in such synchronization to the beat, to the tempo of the music. And I think that’s especially significant tonight because of some of the things we’re facing as a ministry. And we don’t want to air our dirty laundry for the world, you know. But tomorrow we have affidavits to sign. And Tuesday at twelve noon we have a hearing because there is someone, a former associate many years ago of the ministry wants to come in and possess the house and the furnishings.

But I was just seeing tonight that there is such activity in heaven because of these things. Because of this great controversy that’s risen, there is such movement. (Hallelujah.) I like to be involved with something that’s causing a disturbance in heaven. And I mean disturbance in a good sense of the word. And I could just see those angels taking a step and making a quick bow and another step and making a quick bow. And they were doing it in the time of the music, hallelujah. I just had to share that.

New Crop

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

We declare tonight that there’s coming forth a new crop of fruit. And this fruit is going to remain, saith the Lord. For the enemy will not be able to steal it away. For I shall give you fruit that shall remain with you, saith the Lord. And shall stand and prepare the way for others that will come.

Be strong and be courageous. And be sensitive to My Voice. For the Lord would say unto thee, there shall go forth a cry in Zion that shall bring deliverance in the measure that you have asked Me for, saith the Lord. And you shall know that you have sown.

And that which you have sown, you shall reap. For there shall be deliverance because of your faithfulness, saith the Lord.

And even that thing that is within thee shall be birthed. It shall come to pass. And no weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper. And yea, it seems that every time something comes to birth, the enemy is there to steal it away.

But I declare unto you that I shall cause new things to come forth from thee. And you shall birth new things, saith the Lord, that the enemy will not be able to steal. For inside the both of you there are great things that must come forth. And I shall call them forth even in this hour. And the vision shall surely come to pass. Though it tarry, wait for it, saith the Lord. For I shall bring it to pass in all of its fulness. And you shall see the glory of the Lord. (Tongues)

Let’s give the Lord praise in this house. Oh. (Tongues)

Yea, yea, yea. Be encouraged. Be encouraged. Be encouraged. (Tongues) For even as Deborah was given great wisdom from the Lord, I shall impart unto thee the wisdom that you have desired. And it shall flow forth from you, saith God. And many shall come and enquire of thee to know that which I have placed within thee.

Run on. Run on, saith the Lord and be not weary. For I shall lift you up in time, says the Lord. (Tongues)

Oh hallelujah. Oh, I feel like running. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I feel like running on. Blessed be the Lord. Blessed be the Lord. Hallelujah.

Enemy in Denial

April 6, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem

Israel as she was saying that… Sister Nancy also mentioned last night the connection… with the Iraqi thing. But as she started speaking, I heard the phrase in my spirit, “The enemy is in denial.”

Angels Commissioned to Walk with Us

April 6, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophecy given through Brother Greeley

Fear not, says the Lord. Fear not. Be not afraid. I have not spoken these things for you to fear. But I have spoken them for you to become vigilant. I am the standard. I have been and I will be. I have commissioned angels to walk with you. You do not have to fear. But do not become careless. Remain strong in the faith. Come unto me. Present every burden that you have and I will make your burden lighter. Hallelujah.

Presence of Mind

April 6, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Sister Anne Tremain

I speak presence of mind. I speak presence of mind to those men, our boys over there. I speak presence of mind. Presence of mind. I speak presence of mind.

Be Vigilant & Keep Your Eyes Peeled

April 6, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Message in Tongues given through Sister Helen Burgess & Interpretation given through Brother Greeley

Be strong. Be vigilant. Keep your eye peeled for the enemy, says the Lord. It will be a week of battle, where the enemy will come from hiding places. I tell you, I’m seeing in the Spirit… I don’t feel this like a normal interpretation. But I see it in the Spirit playing out before me. And I don’t know if it’s just in the Spirit, but I believe not. I believe that we’re going to see it in the natural.

In Iraq where that we’re going to hear about the enemy coming out of unseen hiding places. And there’s going to be a great attack against our military. The eyes of my spirit, I see them crawling out of hiding places. But I also sense in my spirit that God is calling us to be vigilant and to keep our eyes peeled for the enemy as well this week.

Because we’re going to face the same kind of battle, where the devil and his imps are going to try to crawl out of places that we thought we had looked. I don’t want to be silly, but I’m seeing it in the Spirit, just like a daddy would chase his child and he’d hide behind the sofa and go and peek his head around the end to see which way that his little boy is looking.

And he goes just the opposite way to try to sneak up behind him and grab a hold of him. We need to be vigilant and pray diligently this week. We need to be on our toes in the Spirit and we need to pray diligently for our troops. Stay on your toes so that the things that you thought you had put under your feet, would not creep back out and attack you. In the Name of Jesus Christ.

God if there’s any way that it can be stopped, if there’s any way that it can be stopped… God, we’ve prayed before and have known that the intensity has been decreased. So God, I pray right now in the Name of Jesus Christ that You would bring a high level of vigilance back to our soldiers.

God, maybe things have been a little bit easier than they anticipated. But God, bring back the vigilance that they would not get careless. Oh God, I plead it in the Name of Jesus Christ. I plead for minimal loss of lives, oh God. I stand on behalf of our men and women in that place.

God, I ask You that You would restore and renew the high level of vigilance. Oh God, that intense awareness and alertness, oh God. Maybe their bodies are tired. But I speak strength into their bodies so that they can have an increased level of alertness that there would be no carelessness in the Name of Jesus Christ.

And God I pray the same thing over this body of believers tonight. That You would restore the high level of awareness and alertness, God, to what the devil would try to do to the body. How he would try to bring division, he would try to bring about an onslaught.

But God, we pray against it in the Name of Jesus Christ and we speak the Word to a high level of awareness of our enemy, the enemy of our soul. In the Name of Jesus Christ. Be our rearward, Lord. Oh God, if we’ve ever needed that before, I speak it tonight. Be our rearward. (Tongues). I speak it in the Name of Jesus Christ. Hallelujah.

Arise Mighty Army of the Lord

April 9, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Prophetic given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

For the Lord is waiting, He’s waiting on His army. He is waiting on His army. For the Lord is waiting on His army to rise up and hear His command. For I given orders, orders from the heavenlies. I have a plan. I have, I have a plan. And I am waiting on My army to arise from her slumber, and ready herself to carry out My will.

For I am gathering, I am gathering an army in the nations of this world. I have trained them by My Word. I have led them by My Spirit, and I am waiting, oh yes, I am waiting for her to arise.

When I say, “Arise,” I’m not just speaking about getting up, saith the Lord. When I say, “Arise,” I mean more than moving the positions of her body. I mean, arising in My Spirit in obedience, in dedication unto Me. Arise, arise, arise and tune your ear, tune your ear to the sounding of My shofar, for I am calling, I am calling unto you.

Arise, arise, mighty army of the Lord. Do not look at yourselves and marvel and wonder. For I have chosen you. I have chosen you. It is not in what you see, but it is what I, your God, have seen. I have seen your heart. I have known your inner being.

Sometimes I have had to turn even a deaf ear toward the words of your mouth, because there are times when what you say it not really what’s in your heart. You speak too swiftly, you speak too harshly, and I turn aside My head. For I have seen beyond what you think, and I have known you. There is no one who knows you like the Lord. Arise, arise, oh army. And ready yourself to go forth.

There is a Message, there is a Message of deliverance. My Word sets free. My Word sets free. My Word, My Word sets free. Breaks every chain, shatters every yoke, sets captives free. Hear My Voice, and know and know that I am wooing and calling after you. Do not be busy with your own ideas. Do not busy yourself with your own ambitions. But desire to know My will. And you shall go forth with My anointing, with signs and wonders following after you. There shall be healing in your hands, and deliverance in your mouth.

Do not be weary. The Lord sees that some of you are weary. Let Me breathe on you, I desire to breathe My Life into you. Be refreshed, revived, renewed. Be rested in My glory. For the days will come when you will need My rest. My people are busy running everywhere, here and there, here and there. But the time will come when she will move with great precision.

She will move in direct command. No doubts, no inhibitions. She shall know My perfect will, and she shall go forth to do it in My Name. Ready yourselves. Ready yourselves. (Tongues) oh hallelujah…

There shall come a changing in your feet. Your feet shall soon be changed. And I shall give you hinds’ feet. Oh, you shall receive hinds’ feet. Your feet are not sufficient to scale the heights. So I shall give you hinds’ feet like the goats upon the mountaintops. And you shall climb with great strength, and take a hold.

Somebody reach up right now. And take a hold of My promises. Hallelujah.

Feet Like Hinds’ Feet to Climb High Places

April 9, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision & Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I could see in the Spirit. This sounds strange, but I could see in the Spirit our torsos being changed. God, help me to explain it, so that it doesn’t sound weird and wacky.

But I could see our torsos being changed into the haunches of something like a mountain goat. Hallelujah. And God said, “I’m going to make your hinds’ feet, give you hinds’ feet. Make your feet like hinds’ feet, so that you can climb into those high places.”

And then I saw us reaching up with our arms to catch things that were passing by. And the only way I can describe them is, they were passing by like bubbles. The boys like to blow bubbles. And it wasn’t quite black bubbles, but little, I almost said, little blobs of something that were passing across the top of the mountain.

And because we were higher than we’d ever… (Tongues) Because we had climbed higher than we’d ever climbed before, we were taking a hold of these things in our hands. And the Lord is saying, “This time…” Listen now. The Lord is saying, “This time, when you take a hold of My promises, they’re not going to burst like bubbles.”

You know, we’ve reached for the promises of God and seen them vanish in our hands. We thought we had really got a hold of God. We thought we had really got a hold of His promises, but they just burst in our hands. But God said, “You weren’t high enough. You were trying to embrace promises that your faith wasn’t high enough to receive. But when I make your feet like hinds’ feet, you’ll reach a hold and reach and get a hold of promises. And they’ll not burst in your hand, but they shall be a reality to you.” Hallelujah.

I see reality coming. I see there are some of you with us in this little prayer meeting today, you’ve never really grasped the full reality of God. You want to. You desire to. You love God, but there’s a reality that you haven’t yet known. Hallelujah. And that could be sad. But we won’t worry about it, because that was yesterday. And today is today. And God says, “I want to bring you to a new reality of Me,” Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

And all I can say about that is, that’s what’s kept me serving the Lord, was the reality that He let me know as a child. When God baptized me with the Holy Ghost at the age of seven years old, in the old Pentecostal Church, He let me get a hold of reality. And that doesn’t mean, everybody who has got the Holy Ghost has had the grasp of reality. But I’ve got enough reality in God that I didn’t want to turn my back on Him. And when I great up in school, and the drugs were being passed around, and sexuality was being flaunted in my face, it was only because I had got a hold of the reality of God that I was able to keep myself from those things.

And I see that the Lord wants to give every one of us a new reality of Him, so that it’s not guessing, you’re hoping that it’s so. You hope that it’s real, you hope that heaven is real. But God wants to give you such a reality of Him, that you’ll know that you’re moving in God’s will.

God said, I want to vanish a lot of doubt out of your life. You don’t necessarily talk like people of doubt, but there’s a lot of doubt that troubles you. And the Lord said, “I want to so write and inscribe Myself.” As Sister Nancy sang and prophesied about God, about Yeshua signing His Name, God said, ‘I want to so inscribe Myself, inscribe My Name into you with such reality, that the doubt will vanish.”

And again, in the Spirit I just see us reaching up to take a hold of those promises that would have once burst at touch, but now because we’re higher, hallelujah, they’re not bursting as we reach for them. But they’re becoming reality. Hallelujah… We reach up, oh God, to embrace Your promises. Your promises that You have made to us. We’ve not been living high enough to always get a hold of them before, but if You’ll change our feet and let us climb higher into You, then we know, oh God, we know that we shall walk in Your will like never, like never before. (Tongues)

You that feel comfortable doing it, just let the Lord bless you and sing in the Spirit. You don’t have to. I don’t tell people to do it. I’m just suggesting that if you feel free enough. It takes a level of freedom to just do it. But if you feel a level of freedom, just sing in the Spirit a moment. (Tongues)

God has made me so free, I could do it any time. But I realize there are some people that feel a little uncomfortable. So you don’t have to. But you should be able to come to that place where you’re free enough in the Holy Ghost, that you can just sing in the Spirit whenever you need to. Sometimes we need to. (Tongues) Somebody said, “But what good does it do me? I don’t know what I’m singing. I don’t know what I’m saying.”

The Bible said, “We’re speaking mysteries. “There are times that tongues are given for interpretation, so that we all can be increased and edified. And other times tongues just declare mysteries in the Spirit. Hallelujah. The outcome, I just sensed.

I just sensed that if we were sensitive enough, the very outcome of this situation that we’re facing is being sung out in the Spirit. God knows the outcome. It’s just us that don’t know the outcome.

But I just sensed that some of us were just singing out the end of this thing. Hallelujah. (Singing in Tongues, Brother Shelley & Brother Jonathan)

Oh, we call for a sanctification. We call for a sanctifying and a setting apart of this place. I know that it’s probably already been prayed and declared, and anointed and prophesied over, etc. But we just, we raise it up again. We call for a real sanctification of this place. We send the angels of the Lord to defeat all unholy intercession. Hallelujah.

Do you know the term? I don’t know how many of you understand or heard the term before? “Unholy Intercession.” But of course, we’re facing a lot of unholy intercession. God spoke that to us years ago when we were in a battle in our ministry at home. Just think about it. You’ve got two sides to a story. All right? And both sides think they’re right. And both sides think God’s with them. So we’re praying against what they’re trying to do. And they’re praying against what we’re trying to do.

And you may not think it makes a difference, but it does. And there are people who are so messed up, that they pray all kinds of curses on people, and intercede against people, and want to see people destroyed. And just to give you a little example. I mean, like yesterday in the court room. My father-in-law sitting out, talking to the… Of Sister Ruth, is bringing the problems.

And she wants him to know that she knows a lot about my family. Which is fine. We live a public life. We don’t have anything to hide. But she wanted him to know that she knew my wife was pregnant. She was trying to make friends with him, so she could pump him and use him as a mouthpiece to get to us. And so she said to him, “I know she’s expecting. What are they looking for? A boy or a girl?” And he says, “Well, they would like to have a girl.” And she said, “No, I think it will be a boy.” You know, just to… You know, just to be witchy. You know, just to have that little bit of, like that makes any difference. Like she’s got the power to change anything.

But take that and amplify it. And people going to prayer and praying and fasting. There are people fasting that we lose this house. So that’s great unholy intercession. And I believe that we’ve got power over those spirits. There are people that come in here every day that are not born again, and they bring spirits with them.

We don’t want to be fanatics, you know, like people that look under every book for a demon, and turn over every rock, thinking that there’s a demon. And everything’s got a demon attached with it. But we do want to be sensitive to the Spirit of God, and constantly continually sanctify this place.

Sister Nancy was mindful of that at some time, and she rolled up some rugs that had little demons and little things on them. And I just get the strange idea that there’s probably other stuff in here that needs to be purged. And I don’t have any idea what it is. But God may take care of that for us. We don’t know. But we’d rather be able to do it on our own and go through and let the Spirit lead us, than to have it all taken from us.

There are a few things we’d like to have, so that we could continue the work of the Lord. But we want to continue to pray against… You know, the rabbi. I spoke to the rabbi last night. He called and talked for so long. And the themes of the conversation was this great cleansing that’s going on for Pesach, and how every home is being cleansed. And he said, ‘You know, I didn’t have the money to do it. My house, I have a big house. Some of you have been there.”

Said, “I have a big house. I only have one daughter at home. I really didn’t have the money to do it, but I had to just squeeze and pay some Romanian people to come and help clean, because it’s so thorough.”

And the neighbors are watching. You know, it’s such unusual situation. You just can’t clean inside and nobody know. Everybody knows. There are people even look in the windows to see if you’re busy preparing for Pesach. And if you’re not taking things out of your house, then they condemn you. Because they know it’s the holy time.

And we as Christian people, we don’t feel. I myself, I’d better not speak for you. But I myself, a good spring cleaning in the house is nice, but we don’t feel like we have to take the furniture out and hose down the floors and so forth, like some of the Orthodox people do.

But we want to take it very spiritually. And the rabbi was saying. You know, especially with children around,” he said, “they’ll eat a cracker, a cookie, and throw the rest under the couch.” And he said, “It’s very important to the Orthodox people to search every crack and every crevice, and every corner, to get the leaven out.

And I believe that’s what we need to do. Use this time of preparation for Pesach to do it in our ministry. To search and ask God to help us to uncover anything, any unholy intercession, any spirit, spiritual strongholds.

Not to sound fanatical, but as I said that, I just sensed in my spirit a very strong word concerning a level of witchcraft. And we want to come against that in the Name of Yeshua Hamashyach. We want to refuse it.

I don’t like to say anything like this, especially to tell somebody that they’re targeted. Because then you get nervous and paranoid. But I know Sister Nancy is strong enough. I perceive that she’s strong enough that it won’t torment her.

But I saw that there was a heavy spirit of witchcraft that was being directed against her. And we’re going to break the root of it, that her rest would not be disturbed, that her physical body would be healed and strengthened, that her mind would be clear, that her thoughts would be clear. That everything about her would be clear, and untouched, and unharmed. We bind this spirit in the Name of Yeshua.

I see the kind of, I see that it’s an Eastern type spirit… But my people know I’ve always loved China. I’ve never been to China. I’ve asked God many times to open the doors for me to go to China. I almost had an opportunity last year to go to China as a grape inspector. And I thought, “That’s very strange, because…” Was it China that Sister Ruth and them, how they got in? Being inspectors of, computer chip inspectors or something. These little calculators.

These little holy rollers, the way they got into China was to go and inspect these parts. And I almost… I have met a friend in London who is a millionaire. He’s not a good enough friend to support me, but he’s a friend. And he owns wineries in China. And he knew that I wanted to go to China. And he had, I had an opportunity to go. But I would have had to spend three months in China, and I wasn’t willing to do that.

And I could have gone around all through China, inspecting the grapes and the vineyard for wine. I wasn’t sure how holy that was. But anyway, I’ve always loved China. And yet I’ve never been personally fascinated with its art, with China’s art. I’ve never been fascinated with that. Years ago my mother had all kinds of Asian type vases and decorations, and I absolutely told her I wasn’t going to live in the house with them, that all of it…

She had to change the decor, that it was ugly to me. I didn’t like it. And we got rid of it all. It wasn’t very expensive stuff. We got rid of all of it. But my fascination with China was for the opening of the door for the Gospel, and so forth etc. But as I began to speak that, I saw that you can become so obsessed and so concentrated on something, that you can pick up the spirits.

And I’m not trying to get flaky with you. But I just saw that that spirit of witchcraft was coming forth from something that was picked up in that obsession with China. So it’s some kind of Eastern spirit, an Eastern spirit of witchcraft, a stronghold that was directed against this ministry, and Sister Nancy in particular.

But we bind it. We smite it. We don’t want to talk about it anymore. We want to break it in the Name of Yeshua Hamashyach. Right now, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we drive back every spirit of witchcraft. We break every spirit, every religious spirit, every Middle Eastern spirit, and Eastern spirit, we break it now in the Name of the Lord Jesus.

Hallelujah… Let our minds be cleared. Some of you have been experiencing a cloudiness in your mind. We rebuke that in the Name of Yeshua, and we speak clear thoughts, clear direction, clear hearing in our ears to hear from the Spirit.

We break it. We smite it. We cut it asunder in the Name of Yeshua. We drive it back to the pit of hell from whence that it’s come. We take authority over every stronghold, every spirit of witchcraft. We rebuke the spirit of Jezebel, in the Name of Yeshua Hamashyach. We break the spirit of Jezebel over this House, over this ministry. In the Name of Jesus. Oh hallelujah.

You Jezebel spirit, we expose you in the Name of the Lord. And we rebuke your power. And you cannot have a voice in this place. You cannot use this place, for it has been dedicated to the work of the Lord.

You shall never have a voice. You shall never have a voice. You shall never have a voice. For the Lord shall cut off your voice from the land. For the Lord shall cut off your voice from the land. You shall not be allowed to spew forth in this land. For the Lord Himself is against thee. (Tongues) you foul spirit of Jezebel, we break you in the Name… (Tongues)

Defeated you are, and defeated you shall ever be. Hallelujah. We bind the spirit of confusion that fills the city of Jerusalem. We bind the spirit of religious confusion in the Name of Yeshua, and we demand and command that clarity come.

Oh, we speak a stirring to every lukewarm man. Every man in this city that is lukewarm and lazy, and has no passion for God, we pray that the Holy Ghost will grab him by the hair of the head and shake him, oh God, by the Holy Ghost, until they burn with a passion for You.

We need a refilling. The so-called Spirit-filled people need a refilling of the Holy Ghost. They’ve given out, and have not taken time to receive, until there’s nothing left. There’s empty vessels and broken cisterns. But we pray the work of the Lord to go forth and prosper in this city. Oh. Hallelujah….

I’m not one who needs great manifestations. I’m not one who needs jerking. I don’t need people to fall out. I love that. There’s a picture here on the back of our song… Well, that one doesn’t have a back. Just the back has come off. There’s a picture on the back of our songbook that shows you a little bit about what our camp meeting is like. There are about… I don’t know, fifteen or twenty people laid out there under the power of God at one time.

That’s just a proof to you that we believe in being slain in the Spirit. But I’m not a person that… In fact, I think we should yield more and rest in the Glory. I believe all that. But I’m not a person who needs that to measure what God’s doing. To me, that’s what you’re doing. That’s your reaction to God.

What I believe, it’s the authority in the Name of Yeshua, we speak it. We declare it. We have the inspiration, the anointing of God. It’s done. Whether you jerk, whether you cry, whether you shake, whether you fall out, whether you do anything. It’s not about what you do. I’m not asking you to do anything. I’m asking God to do it. Amen?

So we need to get our eyes off of manifestation. Get our eyes on Yeshua. If God said it… In America they often say, “If God said it, I believe it, that settles it,” I say, “No, no, no. If God said it, that settles it. Whether you believe it or not.”

The only person that your faith can affect it you. If you believe it, it affects how effective it is in your life, whether you believe it or not. Whether you believe God’s Word or not, His Word is surely going to come to pass.

And I could hear the Spirit saying then, “Speedily. Speedily. Speedily. Speedily.” Hallelujah. “I will hasten to perform My Word among you, saith the Lord. I will hasten to perform it.” Hallelujah. Oh hallelujah. Amen. Just like the Hebrews left in haste, before the bread even had an opportunity to rise, (hallelujah) I shall move in haste to perform My Word.”

Great Page Turning

April 13, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw it as I began to say that, I could see this great book in the Spirit and the page being turned. And you might even find it interesting to see. Did you see how I moved my hand to show you the page being turned? Not this way.

You don’t read the Torah this way, we read it the other way. This way. This way’s the way we read it, not this way. You don’t read the Torah like a book, like an American book. I tell you, if you have the Humash, I’ll show you if you want to see it this afternoon. I brought mine. It can be quite complicated following it, because it’s all backwards and all the commentary’s different. And you have to get used to turning the page the right way.

I saw in the Spirit that great page turning. And in order for the page to turn, you’ve got to finish what’s on the previous page. You don’t want the page to turn…

The Spirit of Endurance

April 13, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

This is the hour.

This is the day.

This is the time.

This is the season to lay aside,

To lay aside every weight,

And every sin that doth so easily beset us.

This is the hour to run the race with great patience,

The course that is set before us.

Remembering he that endureth to the end,

The same shall be saved. Hallelujah.

This race goeth not to the swiftest.

This prize is not won by the swiftest.

But it is won by he who will endure.

For he that endureth to the end,

The same shall be saved.

Fill us, oh God.

Fill us tonight with the spirit of endurance.

Fill us right now.

Lift up your hand again to the Lord.

Fill me. Fill me with the spirit of endurance.

I keep hearing in the Spirit, over and over again,

This is not a race to the swiftest.

The race goeth not to the swiftest

Or even to those who are the most skilled,

To those who have the most knowledge

Or the most experience.

But the race goes and prize goes to the ones that endure.

To the ones that endure.

We will endure. We will endure.

I will endure by the grace

And by the spirit of the overcomer that worketh in me.

Becoming Immune to the Thing Fighting for You

April 18, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Sister April Rains

When I was praying, the Lord showed me the intercessors of this Body like the immune system that tries to fight off. Like yeast, where they would come into your body. And how that the sin in our lives and the yeast in our lives tries to hide. It mutates. It changes, so that the prayer that used to work for you, the confession that used to work for you, the touch that used to make you feel better, no longer does.

And you become immune to the giftings in this Body that are here to help you, that are here to help fight off these things when they come into your life. And so those people who are here fighting, you can become immune to those touches. And so you’re left to try to fight that on your own.

Brother Shelley:

My, my, my. Amen… (Tongues) That was a beautiful Word from the Lord.

Healing to the Members

April 18, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Message in Tongues given through Sister Helen Burgess & Interpretation given through Brother Shelley

Hallelujah. Glory. Hallelujah. For the Lord would say unto thee this night. My children, surely it is My desire to raise thee, saith the Lord, to another level. And in order for Me to do that, saith the God, I desire to help you remove all that is in you that is unlike Me.

For yea, the Lord, thy God, would say unto thee, I desire to place thee in a protected place. Yea, with a shield about you, a hedge around you, saith the Lord. That so many of the things that have come against you in the past, the pull you down.

Even I see you wounded, even as though you would have a broken leg. But the Lord would say unto thee, I shall heal you and restore you, and make you ready for running, saith God. But you cannot run with a broken leg. But I shall bring healing to your limbs, to your members. Spiritually restore you. In order for me to do that, I call to you this night, that you would lay all of the leaven in your life before Me, saith the Lord. And I will give you grace and deliverance.

The Lord would say unto thee, I warn thee by My Spirit, do not leave this place in denial. Do not leave this place denying, saith God. But leave this House confessing. For whosoever confesseth and forsaketh his sin shall be delivered of it, saith the Lord. For yea, it is My desire, even in the next few days through these meetings, to show you Myself. Yea, I desire to show You My Glory, saith the Lord. So heed the Word of God this night. Obey that which I have spoken unto you, and prepare yourself for the greater. For I shall meet with you, saith the Lord.

The Royal Order of the Flame (4th Telling)

April 21, 2003 (Monday Evening)

Dream given to Brother Shelley (While in Jerusalem)

God gave me a lavishly, lavish detailed dream about medieval times. I mean, I want you to laugh, cause it’s funny. But don’t miss my point when I get to it in a minute. I woke up. I woke myself up. I have this ability when I’m in these long dreams of sequence… First of all, let me tell you about this dream. I dreamed it all night. Practically from the time I laid down till the time I woke up. I was, would wake up, go back to sleep and continue on like I was having a video in the night.

And there were a few times, I didn’t particularly like what was going on in the dream, I’d just wake myself up, go back to sleep and the scene would change. It was like changing the channels on a remote control. It’s the most unusual dream that I’ve ever had.

It took place… I can only tell you this. I did see… I’ll just confess, it’s good for the soul and I’m among friends more worldly than I in a lot of cases. So I think I can say this without throwing anybody off. I did see a movie one time, a film, I guess. Movie sounds so worldly doesn’t it? A film. I saw a film on the airplane one time, good many years ago. Chad you might have been with me. I don’t remember. Were you? And we all had our little screens.

I mean, you know it’s one thing to ignore that big old thing that’s hanging up. But when they put it right in your face… It was right on the back of the seat. And it was a little film about the time of Camelot. Now, I’d only read a little bit about the time of, you know this fantasy of King Arthur and the knights of the round table and the Camelot and all this. I’d only read a little bit about it in literature in school.

But I was a little interested in this. Most interested I’ve ever been in anything like that. And it was, what’s his name? Not the star, please. I heard somebody naming the star. We’re not talking about the star. We’re talking about the real, supposed to be the real character. Sir Lancelot.

Oh yes. Sir. Lancelot. He’s the dashing, the dashing knight. And King Arthur… Oh I can see King Arthur. I can see him. I can’t help it. I can see him. He didn’t look like this in my dream. But I can see Sean Connery now. (What is this church coming to?) Why did I have to tell that? I didn’t even have to tell that part. I could’ve went right into the dream. But anyway, it’s been years. He was a tremendous King Arthur, by the way.

But you know the story of Camelot. You know the story of Camelot. It’s romance and you know, fighting and so forth. And my dream took place just like that in a castle. In an old grey stone castle with turrets and drawbridges and everything.

And my dream focused in one, large room, probably about three times larger than the room that we’re in. And in the center of the room, there was a curbing in the center of the floor, perhaps about this amount of space here. Round. And it was stone curbing. And on top of the curbing, was a metal grate that was covering whatever that was that was in that… It looked like a well curbing. You know, the curbing around a well, but much larger than that.

And in this dream, I was involved with these knights. Folks are wondering how this is ever going to be spiritual. I was involved with these knights. In fact, I must confess, I was in charge of these knights. So this King Arthur didn’t look anything like Sean Connery. All of these knights were together. And we were called the order… What did I… I’ve got… Wrote it down, cause every time I say it, I say it different. The Royal Order of the Flame. The Royal Order of the Flame.

And I knew in this dream that these knights… And we, there were others, I think like servants, but there were other companions in this dream that were not knights. Sister Nancy is not here to defend herself, so I’ll tell you that her question was, “Were there any ladies that were knights?”

And I said, “None. Not a one.” But there were companions. I mean how would a woman in a skirt put on a knight in full armor, a knights’ armor? But there were other women, there were other men and other women who were not knights, but who were companions to us, who had the same desire to protect.

You see, what this was when we looked into this curbing, it was fire burning. There was a fire burning down in this grate. And we, I knew in this dream that this was a fire that God had ignited Himself. That it was like the perpetual fire that burned on the altar in the Old Testament.

And that we had been called by God, by a great higher God to protect that fire. And I remember one sequence in the dream. I’ll share a couple sequences with you. One sequence in the dream, that was special is when the purpose of this fire was revealed. And it was told that the fire, this fire would be used in the third temple. And the reason why we were protecting this fire, is it was for the third temple. And the revelation came out that perhaps the Jewish people would not receive it that they would be waiting on their own fire to come.

And they would not receive it. But somehow, it was stated in the dream that we were to protect this fire until the day that we would hand it over to the Jewish people. Do you understand what the dream was about now? And, I’m telling you, brother, sister, it was something else.

The only way to really get it right would be to glance at my notes. Sister Elfrieda has typed up the sermons where I told it and I’d like to just read a couple sequences. We’ll be through, the Lord willing, by nine. But there’s some real significant things, especially in this second sequence.

I thought I had it marked here, that I could just go right to it. Oh hallelujah. I must have really preached that night. That’s a thick… That is one more thick message. The night… I told it in the morning and again in the night. And the night that I told it, Dr. Michael Chevalier, a great, well known evangelist from the south of France was in the service that night. We had a wonderful time with him. We invited him to come and greet the people.

I’d heard several of his tapes. I’d heard him on the Internet at the camp ground and it was such a blessing to have him. The Lord ministered through me to him and it was a wonderful connection that was made that night in the Spirit. Let me just read a portion of this. This was the second sequence that I told. “And I told one sequence this morning, but another sequence was this castle building that we were in, was coming under siege.” Now I saw this in this dream.

“And these men, their purpose was to put out the fire. That was their desire.” And I mentioned in this service that I never saw the movie, ‘Lord of the Rings.’ Somebody talked about it here in the church and how, perhaps it had evil connotations and so forth and perhaps it did.

But I never saw it. So I know a little bit about the story because I read the book in college. It was written by a man who was a professing Christian. But I don’t know anything about what Hollywood did with it. Except maybe a few advertisements that I’ve seen that seemed to be quite evil. But I wanted everybody to know that I wasn’t getting this from Hollywood. I got it as a dream from the Lord, even though it did sound like Hollywood.

“They were coming to put out the fire. And we didn’t know what to do and everybody was running around. We had been in such unity.” That was the thing that I remembered about this dream is that we were in such unity, working together.

These knights, The Royal Order of the Flame, and we were doing things. Even like, we would come to the table where we were, the round table where we were having our meetings and our discussions. And we would lift our swords in the air. I mean, it gets really unusual from here. Stop laughing. We would lift our swords in the air and we would say, “For the purpose of the flame,” you know, “For the Order of the Flame. To protect the flame.”

You people have no imagination whatsoever. It was so wonderful. I’ve been writing it. I’m writing it down because I’ve only told two major sequences. There were about ten, ten or twelve major sequences that went on like an epic. When they buy this and we all are rich, you’re not going to be laughing. “This great army was coming against us to put out the flame. And we were moving in such precision. There was always differences of opinion, but we never came to blows on how we would protect the flame.

In every sequence, somebody had a different idea.” I’m used to that. “But it was never an aggressive confrontation. It was always yielding. Telling your opinion, but yielding.” You know, expressing yourself and yielding. “We were moving in such precision. But all of the sudden someone came bursting through the door and they said, ‘The castle is under siege.’ And everybody just scattered and was running and it seemed like there was no purpose.

People were running everywhere. ‘What are we going to do? What are we going to do?’ And somebody came to me and they said, ‘Sir, they’re already inside the castle.’” And I remember in the dream that that was so serious. Because in all of the other sieges and in all that we had been through to protect this flame, they had never gotten inside the castle. Can you see the symbolism? “They had already gotten inside the castle.

And I said to the man who came to me, the brother who came to me,” who happens to be sitting here tonight, “‘We’ll have to use a weapon. We’ll have to defeat them.’ And somebody else spoke up and said, ‘Our swords will never do the job. Our arrows will never stop them. We’ll never be able to defeat this enemy. This is the most serious enemy that has come against us. They are fully trained and fully prepared. They’re not coming just to kill us, their purpose is to come and put out the fire.’”

They weren’t coming to steal the fire. What would the enemy do with the fire of God? He doesn’t want to steal your fire. He wants to put it out. Because if he puts it out, you’ll never be able to help somebody else become ablaze with the fire of God. “And all of the sudden, I knew that the only thing that was going to stop these men was the fire. And it seemed to me in the dream, that we had never used the fire before as a weapon. It had been more like a holy thing. And we just gazed at it.”

In one sequence of the dream, it opened up and the knights were standing around the grate, and we were just looking at the fire with such a respect and holding it so sacred, because we knew that God Himself had initiated and had lit this fire and it was so precious to us.

But I remember that we had never used it as a weapon. We had used it as a sacred symbol. But it had never been used as a weapon before. But in this sequence, I knew that we had to borrow from that fire, that we had to take some of that fire and use it against the enemy.

And I asked those who were standing around… And some of you were standing with me. Some of the people in Jerusalem were with me and some of you were with me. And maybe sometime I’ll tell you who was doing what. But right now I don’t want to because, there’s another sequence here where I almost listened to somebody in this church and almost got killed. So I don’t want to start calling names. Because then… I mean everybody, if you chose your part, you’d have a good part.

But God’s already casted you in this film. And some of you needed to shut-up. I’ll just tell you now. Hallelujah. I could only do it like this here. Believe me, I didn’t behave this way with Dr. Chevalier in the service. “But in this sequence of the dream, I knew we had to take some of the fire and use it. And I asked those that were standing around to give me their arrows. And I took their arrows and bundled them up in a bundle and we began to pray in the Name of Jesus.

And we took those arrows and reached over this curbing. There was something that lifted up like a grate. We lifted the grate off and we stuck those arrows down into the fire and they caught fire quickly. And we pulled them back up and distributed them. It was a very hot fire, but burning very, very slow in these arrows. And we began to use these arrows. Some people had bows and some people were just hurling them with their hands. Because as soon as we began to distribute…” Watch this.

“As soon as we began to distribute these arrows…” Somebody said, “I’ve never come to church and heard something like this.” There’s a first time for everything. “They were distributing…” “As soon as we were distributing these arrows, the enemy not only had burst inside the castle, but they burst through the door of this room where we were gathered.

And some picked up their bows and began to shoot these flaming arrows and others just began to hurl them. But it appeared that perhaps there was only twenty-five arrows or so in the bundle. But in the dream when we were using them as weapons, they were multiplied.”

It was as though we only dipped, one, you know, one big bundle. But I kept watching my brothers shooting those arrows and I remember thinking, “We only had a few arrows and they keep shooting them.” And anyway, “The minute these arrows would strike these men… They were in complete armor. Their faces were completely covered and they were in complete metal armor. But there was something about this fire.

There was something about this perpetual fire that was able to penetrate even those metal armors. And I saw the armors when the fire would strike the metal, the metal would just began to melt and run down the armor. And the fire would go right in and slay the enemy.

Every one of these men were defeated. It was such an awesome feeling in this dream.” I’d roll over and wake up and roll over and it would start again. And when I woke up these Scriptures began to go over in my mind.

And so now let me give you this other sequence. This is one of my favorite ones. “There was talk that the temple was to be rebuilt and this fire was to be used on the altar. This wasn’t just any fire. It was the fire that God Himself had lit. And He had called us The Royal Order of the Flame. We had to add wood and to make sure this fire never died. It was our responsibility, just like it was in the priest days to keep it going.” And I’ll just share this one little part here, because Brother Jonathan is not here to hear it anyway.

But in one of the sequences of the dream, Brother Jonathan was being knighted. He loved that part. He was being knighted as a knight in The Royal Order of the Flame. And anyway… I won’t go into every detail of that. I told him when it was over, I said, “And you weren’t wimpy either.” I’m telling you. “You were all swelled up and ready to fight this fight.” Hallelujah.

Now here’s where some of you got in my way. “In one sequence of this…” Please don’t ask me after church. Please don’t ask me who. “In one sequence in the…” Cause God will forgive you. I already have and God will forgive you. “In one sequence in this dream, a man came and he was very old. He was all stooped over and he wore the clothes of peasant. He looked like the poorest of the poor.” This wasn’t you. Okay? “He looked like the poorest of the poor.

His teeth were broken out and he looked like he was on his last leg. He looked like any moment he was going to lay down and die. And he came. They brought him in to where I was in this room. It seemed as though I never left this room. And when he came in to see me, they brought him in where I was and he was crying. His whole face was wrinkled up and tears were dripping off his chin and he was begging me, begging me. With his hands, he was pleading with me, ‘Please let me see the fire.’

He said, ‘I’m an old man and I’ve heard of this fire all of my life. And I’ve been told that you all have been chosen to keep the flame of God.’ And he said, ‘I don’t want to die having not seen it. And I sense that I’m about to die and I don’t want to die not seeing this holy fire.

I love God with all of my heart and my soul and my strength and you people have the power to grant me my dying wish, just to have a few seconds standing before the fire, seeing it with my own eyes. And if you allow me to see this fire with my own eyes, then I’ll die in peace.’

There were several of us sitting around this table, just like the table of King Arthur.” I put here… When I preached it I said, “King George’s round table.” Who’s King George? Can’t you correct anything Elfrieda? “King George’s round table.” Oh well. I need a book on the knights, I guess.

“And we were sitting around this table. And some of the people, you know. I can’t be… You know I can be specific and call names, but I can’t help what I dreamed. So I don’t want to put anybody out, you know, or make you feel like you didn’t know. But some of you just didn’t have a clue. I’ll just tell you right now, some of you were there, but you didn’t really have a clue. I don’t know how you got in the Order. I don’t know whoever knighted you. It wasn’t me.” I’m reading now to Jerusalem.

“I did not knight some of you.” And I went on to say that some of the church in Columbus, the ministry was there was well. “Because some of you were arguing over this old man.” This is… Here we were sitting around King George’s, I mean like King Arthur’s round table discussing this.

And some of you were really making… There was one particular brother among us, he was really making a speech. And everybody was saying, “I feel in my heart. I see it in the Spirit.” When I got through reading this, I cold preached about… You can hear it or read it sometime. I cold preached about everybody having a vision and everybody having a word and some of it being from our souls and not from God. Because everybody…

Boy, this made me so mad, when I woke up from this sequence, I was so mad, I thought, “God I hope I don’t ever hear nobody say God told them nothing, ever again.” I mean I took this very serious. “Some people said, ‘I feel in my spirit, I see in the Spirit that this man is worthy to see the flame.

He’s an old man and he’s dying and I feel from God.’ And one sister even spoke up and said…” Look out ladies. “‘God had spoken to me that He has sent this man and that it’s…’” I know I’m being comical, but it’s not really funny. “‘And that he should see the fire and he should see the flame.’ And then some people said, ‘No, I don’t feel right about it. I don’t think this is one of the ones who should see the flame.’ The discussion was going on in this room.

It seemed as I was a leader or something. I was dreaming about leadership. And my vote seemed to be the final vote. And finally there was someone who I trust very much who came and took a hold of my shoulder and was pleading with me to let this old man see the flame.

And this person, a brother from the ministry at home, was just pulling on my shoulder and pleading with me. ‘Please, please let him see. Let him see. Just a few seconds, let him see.’ This was so out of character for this brother that he almost convinced me.

And finally in this dream, I received a revelation from the Lord and I said with my sword on the table, ‘Absolutely not. Take him away. Take him out of here. He cannot see the flame. It’s not meant for him to see the flame. He’s a deceiver and he’s come to deceive us and he cannot see the flame.’

And as they started to take this old man and lead this broken old man out of the room, he raised up and threw off his cloak and he was not an old man at all. But he was a young soldier who had disguised himself and he had come in.

And on his belt hanging under his cloak was a very flat leather bag and in that bag, it was full of water. He had just gallons, it looked like, of water on this flat bag on his hip. And it was hidden by his cloak. He had come in to deceive and he had literally purposed to pour that water on the fire.

It almost happened that he was able to put out that fire. But somehow the Lord came to our rescue. And I woke up thinking, ‘Oh God, we have got to have a clear word.’” And then went on preaching for some time, it looks like on the Charismatic chaos.

And how that people have gotten so carried away with their words and their revelations and their dreams that they’re pulling from their souls and not from the Holy Ghost. And you see, it could’ve been a fatal, a fatal, a fatal mistake by letting this old man come in and get close enough.

We wouldn’t let him get close enough to this curbing. But if he would’ve got close enough, he was going to pour that water in that leather bag and put out that flame. Now I know this may seem very strange to you, tonight, unless you’ve got any kind of…

Some surely, there’s somebody here that has a little bit of a prophetic discernment in your life that you can see, you don’t just dream dreams like this because you had to much falafel. God was showing me something.

Several things I learned. Maybe it’s not even for you. Perhaps I wasn’t even supposed to share it. I don’t know. But I just felt like in my spirit today… I had something else. And I felt like Monday night would be the best night to go ahead and get it out of the way.

But also, that God had a purpose. Some of the things He taught me in this dream was, how sacred this responsibility. And God used it as a type of getting this fire back to the Jews so they could use it in the temple. I don’t think it’s, you know, literal fire, going back to the temple.

Because they’re waiting on God to come and light the fire. But I believe it was God speaking to us about the responsibility that He has placed in our hands to take the fire of Pentecost back to Jerusalem. And how the devil will do everything he can to stop us.

Hear what I’m saying now. If this is really what God has called us to do, then it’s such a holy responsibility. And I realize tonight that we’ve got to come to the place where everybody in this ministry, sees the importance of what we’re doing.

Hallelujah. To be a part of another Pentecost that Brother Branham talked about in the city of Pentecost. Jerusalem is the city of Pentecost. And God said, “I’m going to use you to take Pentecost back to the city where it started.

And God was showing me in this dream the responsibility. “I’ve given you the fire.” Anybody here have the fire? I mean honestly. You have the fire of God in your life, hold up your hand. I didn’t say, are you setting everybody else on fire. I didn’t say are the flames licking above your head.

I said, have you got the fire of God. It’s burning there. We don’t always see it in each other. But it sometimes it’s embers. Sometimes it’s coals. But you know, you can take those embers and coals and stir them up and feed them. Hallelujah. Put some fuel on the fire and it’ll begin to grow and consume and burn.

Let’s just tell the Lord tonight that we accept the responsibility of being called to The Royal Order of the Flame. We want to keep that fire ever burning on the altar of our lives. And when it starts flickering, oh God, give us wisdom and grace to come to the altar and to confess it to You.

May we not hide from the fact that something is going wrong in our life. But may we lose our pride and come every time and present our need to You, Lord. Father, may we always feel that if there’s nobody else to tell, we can always come and tell You that the fire is flickering down.

Lord, send the fire tonight. Lord, we could all use a good stoking in our life. We could use You to fan the flame. Holy Ghost of God, send the Ruach HaKodesh. Send that Spirit of the Lord to come and fan the flame, oh God, in our lives.

Help us, Lord, I pray to burn. Burn brighter than we’ve ever burned before. To accept, oh God, the fire and to be ready to spread it wherever You would call us to go. In the wonderful Name of Yeshua. We pray that You will have Your way in us.

Help me to take my correction and march on. Help me to [Unclear audio] work on my spirit. Hone me in, oh God, to Your will. And Lord, let that fire…” I just feel it. I feel it. I can’t help what I feel. But I just feel like the finger of God desires to poke at the burning embers of your soul and let those flames begin to kick up again.

Let’s tell the Lord one more time before we close that we want to do His will. Lord, tonight, You see our lives and You see, God, that we realize the sacredness of this Holy Ghost flame, this great Pentecostal fire is more sacred and more precious tonight than it’s ever been.

We’re beginning to realize that, oh God. And yet we’re human and we’re flesh and we’ve got our own thoughts and feelings. But we pray, Lord, that You’ll give us the grace to say an eternal yes to You, that You’ll give us the grace to let Your fire do it’s work in us.

It’s not only our job to take the fire to others. But it’s our job to surrender ourselves so that the fire can work it’s work in our lives, burning out that that is unlike You. We just surrender to the fire of the Holy Ghost, tonight. In the Name of Yeshua. We just commit ourselves as a burnt sacrifice on Your altar. In the Name of Yeshua we pray. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Thank You Jesus.

Though the cross…

Let’s just love one another tonight.

Jesus use me…

Hallelujah. Lord, we want to do Your will. Hallelujah.

Filled with Hope for Tomorrow

April 24, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

Would you just reach up to the Lord with me, prophetically tonight? And let God give you such a peace and a hope for a new beginning, and for a new start, and for a freshness in your experience with God, that you’d be able to just turn loose of the losses of the past, spiritually speaking, the husbands and the children, and the things that may have been lost, the things that may have been taken away from you, the ground that you might not have been able to cover that you wanted to cover? Will you just be filled tonight? Hallelujah.

I just prophesy to you to be filled with the hope of tomorrow, with the hope of what this new child is going to bring forth in your life. For out of his loins shall come Messiah. What God’s doing in us tonight by the Holy Spirit will bring Messiah back to the earth. Hallelujah. He’s just waiting on faith. He’s just waiting on somebody to show forth faith to bring Him back. Hallelujah.

And that’s what we want to exercise in this place tonight. (Tongues) Oh, I feel that’s a very beautiful prophetic Word that’s being declared over us in this very moment. I can just see that new little baby and what he represents. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

All of those sons that Ruth didn’t get to have with her husband, all of those daughters that Ruth didn’t get to have with her husband over in the land of Moab, God made a way for Ruth. He sent her a kinsman redeemer. And from her belly began to come forth a child that would bring King David on the scene. And King David would bring Messiah, Yeshua, on the scene. Oh, all in God’s plan and in God’s economy. Hallelujah.

There is something that God wants to birth in us tonight. There is something that God wants to bring forth in your spirit, a level of revelation that He wants to bring forth in your spirit, that’ll cause you to believe for something Kingly, something Kingly. Hallelujah.

Lord, we believe for something royal to come forth in our spirits. We’re believing for something royal, for something Kingly, for something that comes forth with authority. In the Name of Yeshua. Hallelujah. Hallelujah…

From His mountain of Sinai.

Let all of Egypt

We’ll pray in a moment.

Let all of Egypt slip away (Tongues) from you.

We receive Your Word into our hearts.We’re holding the omer in our hand.We’re holding the sheaf in our hand. Hallelujah.Oh, we thank You.We thank You.

Even though the old husband is gone,And the old sons are gone,And the comfortable life of Moab is gone,we come back to Bethel,Bethlehem, the House of Bread.And we found our house broken down,and much of our stuff has been stolen away.

But all that matters,is that the Kinsman Redeemer,Has come to claim us as His own.Oh hallelujah.And He’s given us six portions to go with the first.And now it is become seven portions to us.And He has made us complete. Oh hallelujah.And He has taken little Ruth into the threshing floor.He has taken little Ruth into the winnowing floor.

Oh hallelujah. Not only that, but He’s claimed her as His own, And He’s given her seed. And she’s brought forth this little Obed. And from him shall come King David in all of his glory. And from David shall come Messiah. Oh, we bless You. We bless You, Lord.

We’re forgetting the past.We’re cutting our losses tonight.We’re laying them at Your feetand we’re filled with joyof what this new child is going to mean in our lives.We hold it like a revival child.And we thank You for the newness of Him.We thank You for the joy of Him. Hallelujah.

Lift up your hand, if you will.

I know everybody can’t relate to that kind of a Word,but to those of you that can, reach up.Just pull it down upon your head like a mantle and say,Lord, I claim it, and all that it means to the Body.And not only all that it means to the Body,But I claim it in all that it means in my life,in my house, to my children, to my husband, to my wife,to those I love. Hallelujah.Glory, Glory, Glory, Glory… Hallelujah.

Oh, I just see Naomi.I can just see Naomi nursing,Taking care of this little child.She knows he’s special.But perhaps she doesn’t realize just how special.

Can you say hallelujah?

We will hold it in our arms, it is the promise of the Lord.

The Lord was giving me this.

We will hold it in our arms, for it’s “Thus Saith the Lord.”

Focus on Revival, Not Judgment

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

And God spoke to me the first night that I was in Israel last year at the end of September, sitting down in the valley, down in the Hinnon Valley, and listening to a preacher speak a little bit. We had gone down for a meal and we had walked down into the Valley during the times of the Feast of Tabernacles. And there was a Christian speaker who was speaking. And we sat out.

And it was so strange because we realize that all of our loved ones at home were praying for our safety, and they could see us facing bombs and machine guns. And here we were, sitting out in the open in folding chairs in this grassy valley, dancing and singing praises to the Lord.

And so it was such an amazing experience, because it was nothing like what we had perhaps seen on CNN. Here we were, just out in the open. If somebody would have wanted to get us, they could have got us. Throwed it right down in the valley. And we were just sitting down there, praising the Lord.

And God spoke to me in that valley. And I wrote it down when I got back to my room. And He said, “From this day forward, I don’t ever want you to focus on judgment that’s coming to this place. I want you to focus on revival. I want you to be honest, and I want you to tell the people that the Bible has spoken that there will be judgment.”

The Bible speaks about an earthquake that will come to the City of Jerusalem. How many of you know that? We know that’s Bible. We know there is a time appointed to Jacob’s sorrow. But God said, “I don’t want you emphasizing that. I didn’t send you here…”

Now there’s going to be some witnesses that God raises up to preach the judgment that’s coming. But God said, “I’m not bringing you to this land to emphasize the judgment. I want you to emphasize the return of Pentecost.” So that’s what we’re doing. When the ashes have settled, when the dust has settled, when all of the calamity has expired, then God is still going to have a great move of God going on in that city.

Does anybody understand what I’m saying this morning? So we’re focusing on the return of the Gospel to those who gave it to us in the beginning. And when God takes us home, how He deals with His own children is not our business anyway. Amen? It’s His business. And He’ll take care of it. And He doesn’t need me with this all the time.

In fact, the doom and gloom that I preach is to the Gentile church. I am a doom-and-gloom preacher. But I’m preaching that to the Gentile church, for that’s my purpose. My purpose is not to preach the doom-and-gloom upon the Jewish nation, but to give them hope and to give them light in Yeshua.

That no matter what happens, no matter what kind of curses fall from the heaven, no matter what kind of hailstones come, no matter what kind of judgment in wormwood, and so forth, etc. If you have hope in Yeshua, you can weather any storm. Amen. And we know that because we have seen it in history.

I Will Sustain Thee

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

There is help for me in God.

For the Lord shall sustain thee. (Tongues)

For you shall know, yes, you shall know.

For you shall know, yes, you shall know

That I will sustain thee, I will sustain thee.

You shall know, yes, you shall know.

You shall know, yes, you shall know

That I will sustain thee.

For I will visit you with My Glory.

Yes, I will visit you with My Glory,

When you go forth, My Glory shall be seen on you.

Wherever you go, My Glory shall go with you.

It shall be seen on you. It shall be known of you.

For I, the Lord thy God, will sustain you.

You may be wounded, but you shall not be broken.

You may be bruised, but you shall not be broken.

For I will sustain thee, and I will raise you up.

You may be bruised; you may be wounded.

You may be hurting,

But I shall not allow you to be broken, says the Lord.

Not one bone, not one bone shall be broken.

For I have brought you forth from the breaking, saith the Lord.

And now I shall mold you, and I shall make you.

But you shall never be broken. Hallelujah.

My Gates Shall Not Be Broken

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Kary Payne & Brother Shelley

You may be bruised,

You may be wounded.

But My gates will not be broken.

You may be bruised,

You may be wounded

But My gates shall not be broken.

You will arise, you will worship.

You will awake, for I will sustain you.

You may be bruised; you may be wounded.

But My gates shall not be broken.

(Repeat)

You will arise, lift up your heads,

You will awake, for I will sustain you.

You will arise, lift up your head.

You will awake, for I will sustain you.

Brother Shelley:

You will go forth with My Glory.

And I shall visit it upon those you meet.

Brother Kary:

You will go forth,

With My Glory.

You will go forth,

With My Glory.

Brother Shelley:

And I shall visit it upon those you meet.

Yes, I shall visit it upon those you meet.

I shall visit it upon those you meet.

For they are hungry and they are thirsty.

They are hungry and they are thirsty.

And I shall visit it upon those you meet.

So watch your spirit, guard your heart.

Watch your spirit and guard your heart.

For they are hungry and they are thirsty.

Watch your spirit and guard your heart.

For I shall visit it upon those meet.

I will visit it upon those you meet.

Hallelujah. (Tongues)

Be the Gate for My Glory to Step Through

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy & Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw the Lord doing a work of re-creation. I saw the Lord. You know, when we read in the Book of Genesis, we read about creation. We read that God took from nothing and He made something. But I saw God taking from something that He had already made - you, and re-creating. And the Lord said, you may know bruising, you may know pain, but you will not be broken. And not one bone is going to have to be broken. Because God said, I’ve already caused the breaking.

You’ve already known the breaking. You’ve already known that time of breaking. And now, the Lord said, that that you’re feeling and that that you’re going to feel, will never be the breaking again. But it will now be the molding and the making.

And you know why that means so much to me is, because I’ve asked the Lord for so long that My will would be broken. And now the Lord comes this morning and says, I’m calling you forth from the breaking, from the place that I’ve broken your will. And I’ll not have to break you again. For all that you need is within you. And I’m just going to recreate and remake, and reshape and remold. I’m going to take from that that I have invested in you, says the Lord. I’m going to take from that which I have deposited in you already, and I’m going to make you a new creature before Me.

You shall know worship, saith the Lord. For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I’m going to introduce a realm of worship that you have never known. Yea, I’ve seen you in your praise, saith the Lord. And it’s pleasing to Me. Yea, I see how that you’re willing to step out beyond your comfort zone and praise Me, even with a sacrifice.

But the Lord would say unto thee, it is My desire to move thee into a deeper and greater level of worship, yea, where you shall know Me and You shall look upon My face, saith the Lord. And yea, if you have known Me in the past to be your glory and the lifter of your head, yea, the Lord would say unto thee, even now you shall know Me in a greater measure, in a greater way, to be the Lifter of your head. For I will not suffer your heads to hang down.

For even as you have sung unto Me, “Lift up your heads, oh ye gates,” yea, the Lord would say unto thee, “You are My gates.” Yea, you are My entry points in the earth, saith the Lord. It is through you, you are My threshold, saith God, that I step through to visit the earth.

And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I will not have My gates with their heads downcast, with their eyes upon the ground. I will not have the gate that I walk in to be low, to be discouraged, saith the Lord.

So I call unto you, even as you have sung unto Me, “Lift up your heads, oh My gates,” and I shall use you, saith the Lord, as a threshold to step into. For I am the Lord thy God, and I’m looking for doorways. I’m looking for thresholds that I can enter in, yea, that I can come through and that I can visit, saith the Lord.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, even that that I’m desiring to do for you shall go forth even out of this place. And I shall cause others to move into greater worship, yea, their very soul, their very spirit poured out to Me. And I shall fill you up in that moment, in that moment when you have poured out that you have, yea, you shall not leave My Presence empty. For I shall then fill you to overflowing, saith the Lord.

Lift up your head, oh ye gates, and the King of Glory shall come through you this day. I shall pass through you, saith the Lord, as an entry point. And yea, I shall bring revival about My ankles, saith the Lord. Yea, I shall bring forth revival. It shall rise up from around My garment, saith the Lord, even like a dust. Yea, it shall raise even up around My waist as a billowing cloud. And it shall be My glory and My revival. For I shall revive you, saith the Lord.

Yea, many of you have prayed that I would revive the Church. But the Lord would say unto thee, it is you that I desire. It is you that I have an appointment with, saith God. It is you that I would desire to revive. And yea, if you would yield to Me, oh My gates. Oh, My gates, if you would yield to me, then I would bring revival with Me as I pass through you.

And yea, as you come together corporately, saith the Lord, it would pass throughout the entire body. Yea, and it would go forth out of this place even on the tapes, saith the Lord. Even on the video, on the telephone hookup, even through the computer. The Lord would say, I would allow My Glory and My revival to be transferred, even into the nations of the world.

For you know how easy it is to pick up a bad spirit. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, it shall even be easier in this last hour to pick up My Spirit and to impart, and to transfer it one to another. For there shall be an atmosphere of God around you, saith the Lord. Hallelujah.

Vision:

Even as that Word was going forth, I saw the Lord stepping through a beautiful gate. And I could see that misty revival coming around His ankles like mist, like smoke, that was rising up around Him. And it began to billow like in almost a figure eight, that smoke of revival began to just billow around His feet and rise up around His waist, and around His garments. And the Lord was just saying, “You be My gate. You be My gate.”

What a privilege, what an honor, that the Lord would call you to be an entry point, that He could step into the earth using you as the entry. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. What a beautiful picture is painted by the Spirit of the Lord this morning. Hallelujah.

Clearing the Murky Waters of Our Mind

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

You know I saw one time not too long ago. I never had a chance to mention it. But I saw this muddy, muddy puddle. And I saw little pebbles being dropped into that puddle. And every time a pebble would fall into the puddle, it would cause that, you know, mud, silt, to come up from the bottom and make that puddle so muddy.

The Spirit of the Lord dealt with me and He showed me a white stone. You can read it in the Book of the Revelation. He showed me a white stone. All the other little rocks looked more like grave, looked more like gravel in your yard. Greyish and whitish streaks, and mingled in color.

But He showed me a little smooth white stone. So smooth on every side, like it had spent the majority of its life, if rocks have life, it’s existence. It had spent the majority of his existence in a stream somewhere, with all of that water rushing over it to grind it down and polish it up, and make it so beautiful like those little smooth stones you can find on the seashores sometimes.

White. Snow-white. And that stone was dropped into that puddle. And all of those stones that had stirred up the muddiness and the silt, when that white stone dropped into that puddle, I watched every bit of that murkiness go to the bottom. Not settle like this. Psewww. And I could see clear to the bottom of that puddle. And I could see all the loose stones laying there on the bottom, that had been used to muddy up the water.

If you’ll let God come this morning. He is your righteousness. He is your shoulder to lean on. And He can take that white stone and drop that down into your life, and clear the murky waters of your mind.

And I feel this morning that a lot of us have murky minds. Anybody help me? We’re so cared about and tossed about with cares and worries and troubles and concerns. Then there’s a group of us that we think we’ve got all the solutions sometimes. And we’re murkied up. Some of us are murkied up with problems. Some of us are murkied up with solutions.

Got all the problems and don’t know how to solve them. Some of us have got all the answers and don’t know how to implement them. Hallelujah. We just need to say, “Lord, You come. You come.” No, no. I think we need to say it differentlyin light of what we’re preaching this morning. Instead of saying, “God, come to us,” I think we need to say, “God, we’re coming to You.”

Coming in Obedience

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

Obedience.

We’ll stand before You,

Oh God in obedience.

For it takes more than sacrifice,

To be pleasing unto You.

So we come in obedience.

In obedience we come to You.

Going Before the Great Move of God

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I had a vision in the earlier part of the service. I saw something I’ve never seen before in the Spirit. Remain standing, will you? I saw in the Spirit something I’ve never seen before. I saw a huge railroad track. I’ve seen maybe railroad tracks before.

But I saw the great distance of this railroad track just stretched out in front of my vision. And I saw that there were several of us standing on a… I don’t know what you even call it. Some of you might know railroad, but it was one of these old-fashioned carts that they had on the railroad that you pumped, pumped the… I mean, I don’t even know how to describe it. Like a handle, you know like a bar, crossbar, and they pumped one side. Two people standing. Is that right? You know what I’m talking about? And make it go down the…

Now, I’ve seen them, they’ve got them now, I guess they’re electric or something, brother, or gasoline, they just scoot down the… Several times on our road I’ve seen them scoot, the new kind. How many of you know what I’m talking about? Something that goes on the railroad track. Well I saw several of us and we were standing on this cart pumping it. One, several on one side, several on another side, we were just pumping that heavy bar up and down.

And as we pumped, there was a movement in the Spirit. That cart was going, it was moving, but as we were pumping, it was lurching forward. Every time, I don’t know how to do the sequence. But you could see that as it was going up and coming down, it was causing the cart to lurch.

It was always rolling, always moving. But this movement was making it lurch as though it had more energy. And I saw that, saw us, and we were moving very quickly down the track. And I asked the Lord what we were doing. Because I noticed that there were times we came to a complete stop, would get off the cart and begin to look carefully at the track.

And the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me and He said, “I’ve used you, I’m using you like the inspectors of the railroad track. Because there’s something coming behind you.”

I want, everybody stand. You’ll just have to help me. You’ll have to forgive me. I’m a little agitated in my flesh. So you’ll just have to stand and honor what I’m asking you to do for just two or three seconds. Because I feel like I’m delivering the Word of the Lord. And I feel like there’s people who couldn’t care less. And that really vexes me. You don’t want to vex me. Because I feel like God’s saying something that’s so important. And I just get so tired of people acting like they couldn’t care less. But God was speaking to me in this, that He has used us and is using us to inspect the track.

I don’t even know if that’s what those carts do. I don’t know anything about it. But in the Spirit I could see that we were moving down the track, getting off, inspecting the track. Because I heard the Lord say, “There’s something greater, something bigger coming.”

And as the Lord said that, we were back on this cart and we were moving quickly. I’m going to look it up and find out what the little cart’s called. But we were moving quickly down the track. And all of the sudden somebody said, “It’s here.”

And we turned, and the biggest engine I’ve ever laid eyes on in my life was coming down the railroad track. It was almost on us. It was almost to run over us. But there was no fear in our hearts that that locomotive was ever going to hit us. Although we were on, it just seemed as though it was a few yards behind us and so big that when we looked up, it was just like standing against a skyscraper. This huge engine that was rolling down the track. And somehow I sense that the Lord was saying, “I’ve been using you for that preparatory work to go before the revival, to inspect the track.” Hallelujah.

Can you imagine what can happen to this engine if the rails are bent or damaged or so forth? I don’t know all the things that can go wrong on a railroad. But God said, “I’m using you, have been using you to inspect the track to go before Me, to go before this great move.”

And I saw it. It’s not coming in like a horse and a buggy, but it’s going to come in like a steam locomotive with great power and great strength. Hallelujah. And in comparison, in comparison, this little cart that we’ve been riding on is pitiful. It’s puny and no wonder we get discouraged sometime. It doesn’t go very fast. And here we are lurching forward, lurching forward.

And in comparison to this great locomotive, what we’re doing is nothing. You know, it’s just… Oh, but I’m telling you, if that big locomotive hits a place in that track that it’s damaged or something causes that train to go shipping off, slipping off that track and into the woods, then all is lost.

And God said, “What I’ve used you to do is a very special and important work, because I’ve sent you before My great move of God.” The Lord said, “Even as forerunners, you have gone forth.” Hallelujah. Even as forerunners. Hallelujah. “I’ve sent you forth to lead this new great move of My Spirit that’s coming to the earth.” Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Be faithful. Be faithful, saith the Lord. Be faithful. Be faithful to watch and to inspect and to make sure that any necessary repairs that need to be made are made. Because I tell you, you’re moving just a few yards ahead of a great and mighty shaking move of God. And I’ve sent you forth even as forerunners to go before it, saith the Lord. Hallelujah…

Now you that are tired and you need to sit down, I understand. I understand. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Hallelujah. Thank you. I feel an Anointing of God moving up and down. Hallelujah. I just heard a Johnny Cash song. I just heard a Johnny Cash song in my spirit. “I hear the train a coming…”

Hallelujah. I could just hear the tune of that playing over in my spirit. I know it’s not spiritual. But I just heard it in my spirit. I did. “I hear the train a coming…” What’s the next line? “Coming round the bend.

We praise You, Lord. We praise You. We praise You. Come on, let’s really praise the Lord. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Now, let’s just love Him a minute. We love You, Lord. Oh God, the preparatory work, it looks so little. Oh a handful of us on an old pump cart. It looks so insignificant.

It looks so foolish and it looks so outweighed, oh God, by the magnificence of that that comes. Hallelujah. But I thank You that You’ve chosen us to go before You, Lord, to help make the way straight for You, oh God, to capture the ear. Hallelujah…

The Lord said, “If you think the voice of John the Baptist has brought deliverance, wait until My Voice comes forth, wait until My voice comes forth.” Hallelujah. If there’s been deliverance in the preparatory days, in the stages of preparation, then there’ll be greater deliverance when the fullness, the fullness of God…

It seemed that even though this great steam locomotive was moving faster than we were, it would never hit us. It would never… There was no fear in us that it was going to run over us. Because actually the momentum of its speed was pushing us forth and we were being moved faster than it. Even though in our little pumping efforts, it was more at that point like we were just catching the wave.

Wave of Revival & Glory Coming from God’s Nostrils

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

Hallelujah. I was going to speak on catching the wave anyway at some point. I put some Scriptures together. I read an article on surfing. Can you imagine? I read an article on surfing. I’m not interested in surfing. But I was reading an article on surfing and it made my mind… It was lessons of how to watch for the right wave.

Anybody in here ever surfed? Any of you ever been on a surf board? Of course. Yes. There’s got to be one beach boy. In this article I was reading, it was telling you how to look, to try to know if that’s the wave… Watch me.

If you want to take your chance and how to judge the wave to see if that’s a wave worth putting your effort into. And they can teach you that and they can teach you how to stabilize yourself and how to do so forth and etcetera.

But the thing that I wanted… I just read it, a couple pages out of a magazine. But the thing that spiritually I got out of it, when I closed the article was, I thought, “In all of those lessons, in all that that they’re teaching people about surfing, there’s one thing they’ve never addressed and that is how to make a wave.”

They’ve told them how to watch for it. They’ve told them how to judge it to see if it’s a right one. They’ve told them when to go into it. But the one thing they can never teach you in a surfing class is how to create a wave. If it’s there, it’s there and if it’s not, it’s not.

And you know, that’s how I feel spiritually. I feel like we can know how to maintain and we can know how to do this and how to do that, but it’s only God that can create this next move.

Vision:

And I just saw in the Spirit that the next wave of God is coming as a blast from the nostrils of the living God. It’s coming forth as air out of His nostrils. Hallelujah. Glory to God.

And there is danger, there’s such danger in the Spirit that we will not catch the wave. Oh God, give me grace and give me discernment and give me wisdom to catch the wave of Your Glory that comes forth as a blast from Your nostrils, oh God.

May I never miss it. May I never miss it. May I not allow myself to miss it. And may I not allow other to cause me to miss it. But I want to be able to catch the wave of revival and Glory that has been promised. Hallelujah. (Tongues)

God Vindicating Himself

May 4, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Kary Payne

When we were just worshiping the Lord, I could see the train tracks and I could see weeds and stuff growing up through them and they looked kind of old. And they looked a little bit rusty like they hadn’t been used. Not like they was wore out, but just like they were a little bit old.

And I wasn’t sure what it meant. And as we just continued to worship, it was like the Lord was telling me, people are going to be surprised to see the train coming down this track. When people have seen these tracks, they’ve seen the tracks just lay there and it doesn’t look like a train could come down these tracks.

But God’s always got a forerunner and God’s always got somebody to go before Him and prepare the way. God’s never surprised. He never gets anything unexpected. God always covers all of His bases before He goes anywhere.

For us, all we can see is tracks sometimes and it may look like all we can see is track and the tracks look old and the tracks look rusty and the tracks don’t look like a trains going to come down. But when God comes down the track, God’s going to vindicate Himself.

Come unto Me

May 13, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Sister Helen Burgess

…I will help thee to go stronger in Me. All you have to do is just be humble before Me, and just wide the arms stretched wide open for you. Come unto Me. Come unto Me. Come unto Me. Come unto Me.

Give Up Your Program for Mine

May 18, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision & Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For the Lord would say unto thee, give up your agenda. Give up your agenda, saith the Lord. Give up your agenda and adopt Mine. Give up your plan, your program, your ideas, and adopt My programs, saith the Lord. For I have a perfect will.

Yea, I have a perfect plan. And all of hell would prevent thee from walking in it. But yea, the Lord would say unto thee, lay your agenda aside. Lay your will aside and adopt Mine. For My will is the eternal destiny of the Living God, and it shall surely come to pass.

And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, for as long as you hold on to your agenda, for as long as you hold on to your plan, you hinder My economy, and you hinder My will from coming to pass. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I’ve waited on you. Yea, it’s My will. I could have moved on without you, saith the Lord. I could have caused My economy to progress without you. But because I have chosen you, saith the Lord, I have waited on you. Because you are Mine, I have waited on you, saith the Lord.

But yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I am pushing the envelope tonight, and I’m calling on you to lay aside your program and to accept Mine. For My will shall be done in your life. And the Lord would say unto thee, if you can only believe and not be afraid to step out of the boat, and to walk on the water with Me, Yea, I the Lord thy God, shall surely do great and mighty things in thee and through thee.

You shall not be hungry, saith the Lord. You shall not go without, for I will feed you from My own hand, and I will provide for you all that you have need of.

For the Lord would say unto thee, I’m calling you to the conference table this evening. I’m calling you before the board of heaven. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, leave your agenda aside, for I have a new plan and a new program that I would desire to reveal unto thee. Give Me your ear and give Me your eye, for I desire to speak unto thee that new thing that I desire to do through thee, saith the Lord. Hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Vision:

I had seen that Word in a vision before I began to speak it. I saw, it looked like a beautiful conference table with dark cherry wood. And I saw some of us bringing under our arms, like a portfolio. You know, like a notebook. And we were all carrying our portfolios to the table. And I saw that when we were coming there into the Presence of the Lord, that God had something else.

I didn’t see the Lord so much, but I saw like an arm that came pushing across the table. And in this, a hand, and a robe-flowing sleeve of a garment. And this hand pushed across the table what looked like a manila envelope. And it was one of those envelopes that has the string on it, that you wrap around the little round tabs. You know what I’m talking about. And I saw the Lord. And the Lord spoke to me and said, “I’m pushing the envelope.”

And God was pushing this plan across the table to us. But we had come with our own program, and with our own agendas, and our own portfolios under our arms. And that’s why the Word then… I didn’t exactly understand what I was seeing, and then a prophetic Word began to come.

God said, “You leave… We should leave our portfolios, leave our notebooks and our agendas, all that we’ve thought about and planned. Leave that. Don’t even bring it to the table, because the hand of the Lord… (Tongues)”

The hand of the Lord is pushing an envelope across the table. And God said, “That that’s been hidden from you, and that that’s been a secret to you, shall soon be revealed. And you shall know the plans that I have for you, saith the Lord.” Hallelujah. Hallelujah… And I heard the Lord say, “For I know the plans that I have for you.” Hallelujah.

You know, we often see that in graduation cards. That word, is that in Jeremiah? Where is that word that it talks about? Jeremiah. “I know the plans that I have for you.” God already has a plan. But we often come to the table. I could just see it, under our arm as though we were proud of it. It’s our baby, you know, our creation. We’ve been sitting at the drawing board. We’ve been sitting at the table, drafting out and drawing out our program, and what we think ought to happen, and how it ought to be. How it ought to be planned out, and how things ought to progress.

I’ve never been a great planner. That’s never been my strong point. I’ve never been a great planner. I’ve never been a great administrator. Wished I could be. But one of the reasons why that I’ve not been able to do that, God told me one time when I was so discouraged about it. The Lord let me know that oftentimes visionaries are not the ones who can carry it out and see it all come into fruition. They just declare it, and just speak out what God shows them. They may not even have the smartness to implement it or make it come to pass.

But God is looking for people who care about what’s in the envelope. I don’t know about you, but I care tonight what’s in the envelope that God is pushing across the table. I desire to know the plan that God has in my life. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah.

And as I spoke that, I saw what looked like about a ten or twelve-inch stake, coming out of the ground. And God said, “Someone is pulling up their tent pegs to follow the Pillar of Fire.”

Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah. How many of you desire to pull up your tent pegs and follow the Pillar of Fire?

My Report

May 18, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

Victory, victory.

His report says I am healed,

His report says I am filled,

His report says, I am free,

His report says victory…

Tell me, who shall believe the report of the Lord?

Who shall hear the Voice of the Lord thy God?

Who shall discern the thoughts of the Living God?

And to whom shall the arm of the Lord be revealed?

To them that fear Me, says the Lord,

To them that keep My commandments, says the Lord,

To those who walk in Holiness, says the Lord.

To them I shall reveal My arm.

To them I shall reveal My might.

And unto them shall My strength be revealed.

So believe not your report,

Believe not the report of those around you.

But believe My report, saith the Lord.

For My Word is My report,

And My Word cannot lie.

Stand upon My Word and claim My report, saith God.

For I will do the thing that you have asked of Me.

And I shall break forth,

And break forth in deliverance, Saith the Lord.

Wait, I say. Wait, I say, wait upon the Lord,

And I shall reveal Myself unto thee in mighty ways.

Hallelujah. (Tongues)

Roadmap of Peace

May 29, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I did see a little vision that I would share, but I was going to hesitate to do it because of the time. But sometimes if you keep it to yourself, and wait until a more appropriate time, we lose some of what the Lord was saying. I saw at an early part in the service, when Sister Nancy started singing about the division. About unity first, and then how Yeshua said, “Think not that I’ve come to bring peace.”

I saw a stack of books, very large books, almost like atlases, but they were very old, embossed, engraved leather covers on these books. I knew in my spirit that they represented man’s wisdom, man’s knowledge, that man was the author of these books, and not God. I saw the top book open up. It opened up really large. And my vision focused in on what was in the book. And I saw that it was a map. So it was like an atlas.

And as I was seeing it closer, I saw the map begin to move, and I saw that there were armies marching along the roads of this map. It sounds very strange, but they were marching along the roads, but they dropped off the edge of the book. They just dropped off like into a chasm. And then I saw a motorcade, a line of black vehicles, very nice limousine-type vehicles. And I knew they were carrying national leaders. And I saw them making their way down this book, a map. It’s hard to describe. And then they, instead of stopping, they would come to the edge of the page and drop off.

And God spoke in my heart that that represented the roadmap for peace, and that it is in the wisdom of man that this has been drafted. It doesn’t mean that there are not good things in it. We don’t know what it will mean. But because it is man’s doing and not God’s doing, then eventually things just drop off in the edge.

Then the scene changed just a bit, and I saw what looked like a Torah scroll open up. And it just spread out a scroll, you know. And it just opened up. And it was also a map. I could see that there were roads drawn on the inside of this scroll. And I saw some of us standing there. Instead of armies and so forth, I saw some of us standing there. And we were talking among ourselves. There were more of us.

We were talking among ourselves about our plan, what would our strategy be. We were trying to decide what to do next. And it was almost like that moment, Martina, when we’re trying to decide what dance to do next, you know, and you’re giving instruction to tell people where to go. That was happening in this Torah scroll on top of it. And it was decided that we would line up, that we would divide into two and we would line up along the highway. And so, many of us were standing on this side of the road, and many of us were standing on the other side of the road, and we were facing one another.

I couldn’t see exactly what was coming up the road, but I saw that it was also a very important procession. But I felt like in my spirit that it was heralding or welcoming something much more important than the armies of the world, and much important than dignitaries in black limousines. But I sensed that it was a welcoming. We were a welcoming committee, and it was the peace of God, it was Yeshua, it was the righteousness of God that was coming just up the road. I couldn’t really make out exactly if it was people, or if it was Yeshua. I couldn’t make it out. But I could see the brightness of it, and I knew that it was coming.

And God was saying that this roadmap for peace is just a temporary, like a band aid on a wound. But what God really wants is for us as believers, and as the Bride of Yeshua, to prepare the way. And that’s what we’re doing in these prayer meetings and in our services, along with other believers all over the world. It may seem very little sometimes what we’re doing, and insignificant. And it’s not the multitudes following along.

But I feel like that’s what God was showing that even in this little insignificant crowd here, that God wants us standing and preparing the way for His righteousness to come. Man doesn’t have a clue. They don’t know what to do. President Bush has no idea what to do. The leaders of this world, they have no idea what to do about this situation. They’re just doing something, so they won’t be criticized more. So they’re trying to do something. But it’s never going to be enough.

I think it’s more, you know there’s going to be a meeting, and the President is meeting with the Arab leaders this week. And then in Jordan, President Bush is going to meet. And I feel like that’s very important. And the whole world will be watching, and CNN will be watching, and all the newspapers. But I just had a sense that what we’re doing here in our little ministry, in prayer and so forth, these little things are so much more important for peace than what they’re going to be doing. And that encouraged me so much. Preparing the way.

Cut Your Teeth On Meat Of My Word

May 31, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

For the Lord would say unto thee this night, My children, I’m calling you to cut your teeth upon the meat of My Word, saith the Lord.Yea, do not allow My Word to become devalued in your life. Yea, for I have come to give you glory,and I have come to give you experiences with Me.

But yea, it is My Word, as it is revealed unto thee,that will change you for eternal purposes, said the Lord. And I call unto you this night to come and take it and eat it. And do not be afraid of it.For many fear that if they take strong meat,it will cause their belly to become sickened.But I, the Lord thy God, would say unto thee,in the days that are ahead,you’ll need the strength that only comesfrom eating the pure meat of My Word.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee,the dainties of men have satisfied you for a season.The ideas of flesh have filled your bellies for a time.But now the Lord would say unto thee,I desire to fill you with the revelation of who I am.And yea, I desire to fill you with the revelation of My Word.And you shall be satisfied and sustained.

And yea, even if it becomes bitter in your mouth,saith the Lord,and even if I should feed you things that you have never learned of, yea, things that maybe you have never experienced before,yea, the Lord would say unto thee,it shall be sweet in your belly.And it shall cause you to come into the stature of a perfect man.

Do not be afraid, saith the Lord,to raise up your neck, to stretch forth yourself,and to eat that which I desire to feed unto thee in these hours. For yea, the Lord would say unto thee,this is the portion that will sustain My Bride until I gather her to My bosom, said the Lord.

Waving the Loaves

June 6, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

But I just had a vision. And in that vision, I saw myself waving these. Just a few seconds ago, waving these two loaves of bread in this house to symbolize your thanksgiving and my thanksgiving to the Lord for giving us the first fruits of the harvest.

Hallelujah. For giving us the cream of the crop and the increase of the field. Hallelujah. And pouring out the wonderful power of the Holy Ghost. Would you just lift your voices of praise to the Lord as we just prophetically wave these loaves?

Breakthrough for the Church

June 7, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

Someone here is praying for a breakthrough in your church. You know there are some things that need to happen in your ministry, in your church, where you are fellowshipping, where you’re associated with.

You know there’s some changes that need to come. You’ve been praying about it. You’ve been burdened. You’ve tried not to be critical, but you’ve been burdened about it. I just feel led to tell you that God is… It may not be the way you think it ought to be. It may not be what you would’ve ordered if you’d have been placing the order. But I’ve just got a feeling that I need to tell you a change is coming; a change is coming.

Oh Lord, make us catalysts. Make us movers and shakers in Your kingdom. Wherever we go let us bring influences and changes for the power of God. (Tongues). Hallelujah…

Deliverance at Home

June 7, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

I just sensed in my spirit… We’ve got to hurry along now. But I just sensed in my spirit that some of you could really use a deliverance at home. I just sensed that some of you have some situations with children, even grown children, and perhaps even married children.

I see some loved ones that you’ve really been concerned about. And they really need a breakthrough. They really need a turnaround, a change.

Lord, I’m just declaring it right now. Hallelujah. God, for teen-agers even, Lord, that they’re just following the ways of the world and just kind of losing sight of You.

And here’s a mom and dad perhaps or a loved one, an aunt, an uncle that’s with us this morning and Lord, in faithfulness, they’ve come to believe You in this city. Would You just send deliverance at home? (Tongues)

Called to Stand at the Gate

June 13, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

Lord, I pray tonight that many of us who stand here will be those who are faithful to stand.

I see it just so plainly in the Spirit that God is calling to some of you to stand at that gate. Our desire would be to push right through, you know, and go and grab for ourselves all the things that we’d like to have.

But I just sense that God is looking for some that’ll just be faithful just to stand there and to declare. (Tongues). Would you just reach up your antennas to the Lord? Would you just receive? Would you just begin to move in a spirit of receiving?

Lord, I receive. I receive from Your hand. I sense that somebody here has been feeling a frustration and a sense of uneasiness in your spirit. You just feel frustrated and feel like you’re not really hearing from God and not really able to move in the Spirit.

It could be because God is calling you to stand at that gate and He’s waiting on you to say, “Yes, Lord. I’ll be one who stands at the gateway to the mind of God, who hears and will be faithful to declare.” (Tongues).

Everyone lift your voice. Just lift your voice in prayer.

Jesus. (Tongues). Lord, here we stand tonight. We’re looking for more than the little sweet in our mouth, that melts away and leaves us hungry. We’re calling out for living Bread. Hallelujah.

We’re calling out for a Word of Truth. We’re calling out for a word of deliverance. We’re searching for something more than what we have. Some people are afraid to say they want more because they feel like they’re saying they’re not satisfied.

Lord, we’re so satisfied with every good thing that You’ve done in our life. But the thing about it is, it makes us want more, Lord. It makes us want more. We don’t mean to be greedy. But the more that You pour in us, the hungrier we are for more of Your glory, more of Your Word, more of Your life-changing power. (Tongues).

Eyes to See & Ears to Hear

June 13, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

Give us ears to hear, give us eyes to see.

That we might proclaim, that we might proclaim,

The words of deliverance, the words of deliverance.

That we might proclaim, that we might proclaim,

The words of deliverance, the words of deliverance.

Give us eyes to see, give us ears to hear,

And a heart that will believe, and a heart that will believe.

That we might proclaim the words of deliverance

(Repeat)

Let us stand at Your gate, let us stand at Your gate.

Give us eyes to see, and ears to hear,

That we might proclaim the words of deliverance

We will stand at Your gate…

Revelation, revelation,

And a heart that will believe, and a heart that will believe.

That we might declare the word of deliverance

(Tongues)

Keepers of Your gate,

We are keepers of Your gate

We are keepers of Your gate,

that we might declare Your Word

Sing that the last time.

(Repeat)

I want you to greet everyone. I want you to say, “God bless you,” to somebody right now and get a good look at their face. Get a good look at their face so that you can remember them in prayer. Hallelujah. (Tongues).

The nations will be changed,

The nations will be changed

As we declare Your Word,

Your Word of deliverance

(Repeat)

The Candlestick

June 20, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I don’t know what it’s about. Have no idea what it’s about. I’ll just say what I saw. I saw the candle. I didn’t see the menorah. I didn’t see the torch. But just right over here, right to the right side of the room, just like over in this area, I just saw the candle, the candlestick, a little… almost like a little candle holder with a ring to put your finger in, and a little flame. Just saw it right over there. So I don’t have any idea what it’s about, but I just saw it.

Golden Drops of Oil

June 20, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw the Anointing of the Lord dripping like oil from His own hand, from His own fingertips. Golden drops of oil (hallelujah) that were dripping down on us tonight. Glory, glory… (Tongues) Let the power of the Holy Ghost…

A Mantle of the Double Anointing

June 21, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

That was the vision that I just saw, just a moment ago. I saw that mantle as it was dropping out of that chariot of fire. I saw that mantle just swinging like this in the wind, as it was coming down to settle over us.

And that would be our greatest desire this morning, that that mantle with a double portion, hallelujah, an anointing for the miraculous. Who will claim that?

Lord, we claim an anointing for the miraculous. Oh hallelujah.

Moving in Circuits of the Wind

June 22, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

As I was speaking that I saw what was like a wheel moving this way, but I knew that it was the wind moving like a wheel in this direction. And all of the sudden, inside of that wheel was a wheel moving this way.

And it reminded me of what Ezekiel said when he said, “I saw a wheel within the wheel.” But this was God giving me a perception of the circuits of the wind and that they’re moving in circuits.

And sometimes we need conviction. And sometimes we need comfort. And sometimes we need judgment and sometimes we need rain. But whatever it is that we need, God knows it and He’s sovereign and He’s able.

And more than anything else in all the world, I want to see…

We’re speaking for a moment of the church, the elect. I have a tendency to say the Gentile church. And that’s not the most accurate term, because there are Jewish believers who are a part of the church and we know that. But it doesn’t cancel their inheritance with Israel either, because we’re coming to a body of one. We know that.

So forgive me for using that terminology. Because we know… In fact, let me say what amazing thing this is. It’s an amazing thing because God promised in His Word that one day He who blinded the eyes of Israel would remove this blindfold and let them see. And yet we know that hour has not yet fully come that God’s mercy has returned to the Jews. And yet we’re seeing Jewish believers come to Yeshua all over the world.

This is so merciful to me. This is so grace, such grace that God’s letting them see. Hallelujah.

So you that are here, how many of you are here this morning with a Jewish heritage you’ll just hold up your hand? And if you have come and you have the knowledge of Yeshua then you are so blessed. You’re so blessed that God… You can consider yourself a forerunner and you can consider yourself ahead of your time.

It’s just the mercies of God ahead of your time, He’s let you come. God knows it and He’s sovereign and He’s able. And more than anything else in all the world, I want to see…

And looking at the church we see her, sometimes dead and dry and yet in the end, we know she’s going to be a mighty army for a last great final harvest. What happens in-between, she needs some of that north wind, some of the south, some of the east, some of the west. And God will breathe breath and life to her.

Looking to the nation of Israel, a scattered boneyard. What’s she going to need to become that mighty army? She needs the four winds of God. “Prophesy, son of man, prophesy to the four winds.” (Tongues).

We yield ourselves to the wind. We prophesy to the four winds, blow thou north wind. Blow thou south wind. Blow thou east and west. Blow over us and make us what God would have us to be. Blow over Israel this morning. Blow over this nation. Blow over the Jewish, the chosen of the Lord. Blow over them, oh God, to build up Zion into what You’ve called her to be.

It’s a High Calling

June 27, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

It’s a high calling. It’s a high calling.

It’s a high calling I place upon you.

It’s a high calling, such a high calling,

it’s a high calling I place on you today.

It’s a high calling, (Try to sing that)

it’s a high calling.

It’s a high calling I place on you today.

Such a high calling, (That’s what I was feeling.)

Such a high calling, such a high calling

I place on you today.

Just a little more.

It’s a high calling

Will you receive it?

Oh, it’s a high calling.

I will receive it. (Tell the Lord. “I will receive it.”)

I will receive it.

(I saw us wearing it.)

I will wear it like a mantle.

I will wear it like a mantle, it’s a high calling.

Sing “It’s a high calling… that I place on you today.”

You must rise up to meet it.

Will you rise up to meet it?

It’s a high calling.

Yes, I will rise up to meet it.

Oh, I will rise up to meet it.

Hallelujah. O, I will.

It’s a high calling

To take My Word to the nations,

To take My Word to the nations from Jerusalem.

For out of Zion, yes out of Zion,

Out of Zion My Word shall go forth.

It’s out of Zion, it’s out of Zion,

It’s out of Zion that My Word will go forth.

And My Name shall be made holy.

My Name shall be made holy.

My Name shall be made holy in Jerusalem.

For out of Zion, yes out of Zion,

For out of Zion My Word shall go forth.

For out of Zion, out of Zion,

Out of Zion My Word shall go forth.

I will wear it like a mantle,

I will wear it like a mantle.

I will wear it like a mantle,

It’s a high a calling.

One more time.

I will wear it like a mantle…

Oh, what a high calling.

Yes, a high calling. (Tongues)

Like a mantle, like a mantle…

It’s a high calling.

It’s a high calling,

what a high calling.

We lift our praise one more time.

We worship You once again, Lord.

We thank You for the privilege,

Oh God, to praise You. (Tongues)

This is still time to worship the Lord.

This is still a moment to worship the Lord.

Hallelujah…

Before Brother Jonathan began to sing that “Zion was calling us to a higher praise”, I just kept sensing the word, the phrase, going over and over in my spirit that God wanted to pour upon us tonight a high calling, a high calling. It’s such a high and holy calling that the Lord desires to call us to. It’s very important that we present ourselves willing. It’s very important that we present ourselves ready. It’s very important that we present ourselves with a readiness to receive and to wear the mantle of the high calling of the Lord. Hallelujah.

It’s very important that we have a yes in our spirit. Even when the flesh is tired, let our spirit be strong enough to say yes to the high calling of the Lord. Hallelujah. I sense it is not just another moment in the service, but that God desires and is doing, not only does He desire to do, but He is doing something among us tonight already. Hallelujah. We receive this high calling from You, Lord. We want to walk in it, hallelujah. Hallelujah.

Spiritual song:

I wash my hands,

I wash my hands.

I wash my hands,

For it’s a high calling.

I wash my hands,

I wash my hands.

I wash my hands,

For it’s a high calling.

And in my feet and in my feet,

And in my feet, and in my feet,

For it’s a high calling.

Let my lips be on fire.

Let my lips be on fire,

With the coals from Your altar.

With the coals from Your altar,

For it’s a high calling.

Let my lips be on fire.

Let my lips be on fire,

With a coal from Your altar. (Yes, Lord.)

With a coal from Your altar,

For it’s a high calling.

Yes, it’s a high calling.

We receive a high calling.

Hallelujah.

Priesthood Changing

June 27, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

While we were worshiping the Lord,I saw a vision of a group of priests coming up in a course,to minister to the Lord.I knew that there was a sense of needing to hurry up in them.They needed to hurry up. It was their time.Their course had come, and they needed to be carrying out their duty, ministering to the Lord.

They moved up rather swiftly.And as they were standing there, I saw them begin to fade away. And as they began to fade away,they faded away in little pieces and became kind of blurry,until they were all gone.

And as they were moving in the air,as though they were rearranging themselves,I saw another group of priests standing on the scene.But I knew that something drastic had changed.And I knew that God was dealing with me about the changing of the priesthood.

And the priesthood is not just about leadership.I want you to know that the Bible teaches us in the New Testament that all of us have been called as priests unto the Lord.It’s not just about the preacher. It’s not just about the leadership. But God wants all of us to flow in that anointing of the priesthood. And God was dealing with me a little bit about that today.What this means, the priesthood is changing.

Let Me Show Myself

June 27, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

They shall know You. For many have purposed in their heart and they’ve said, “We shall see. We don’t know the answer, so we’ll just see. We’ll just wait and see if Yeshua is. If He’s the One, we’ll just wait and see.” Oh hallelujah.

As we stand here tonight, I want us to stand here as the priests that have come to wash our hands and feet. I want us to stand here, calling in the Spirit to the Lord, that He would just give us the grace to wash our hands and our feet. It’s the starting place of the changing of the priesthood. It’s the starting place of walking in a higher calling. It’s a starting place of ministering before the altar of the Lord, and before the congregation of men. It’s a starting place.

We just come tonight, oh God, to wash our hands in Your labor. Hallelujah. We wash our hands before You, oh God. Cleanse our hands, oh God. Cleanse our feet and sanctify us. May be washed withal from the top of our head to the soles of our feet. Even as Peter said, “Lord, if this be so, then wash me. Not my feet only, but my hands and my head also.”

We stand like Peter saying, “Wash us, Lord.” Wash us in the water from the laver of heaven. Sanctify us holy, and wholly sanctify us. Cleanse us with Your fire. Purify us, oh God, as we wash ourselves in Your Presence tonight, preparing our hands and our feet for a higher ministry. Oh hallelujah.

Whatever you do, reach up and touch the anointing of God. Whatever you do, reach up and touch that Presence. (Tongues) Hallelujah. My hands and my feet, let them be cleansed, let them be sanctified. Let my thoughts be renewed and purified.

Draw me under Your bosom, Lord. Let me stand at Your side, oh God, in fellowship and intimacy with You. Let me nurture that which is growing within the womb of my spirit. Let the Man-child of the Messiah, the Man-child of Christ, let Him grow in me. Let Him grow in me until He can manifest, till He can shine out of me.

The Lord just spoke in my spirit and He said, “There’s only a period of time from conception, that a woman is able to conceal that she’s expecting a child. There’s only a season that she’s actually able to keep it from someone if she doesn’t want to tell it.”

But there comes a time in most all cases where the baby starts showing himself. He’s not born yet, or she’s not born yet, but the baby is showing that he’s there, or she’s there. The belly begins to swell and grow. It’s a testimony to the world that something is growing inside the belly of this woman.

There’s only a period of time that we can conceal that which is growing within us, and then there comes a time that it needs and must be shown. And I believe that’s where we’re coming to in this hour. God is saying, “It’s time to start letting it be shown.”

“Let it be known that I am growing inside of you, that My Word is being formed inside of you, that you’re being changed from the inside out. It’s time. You shouldn’t try to conceal it anymore, but you should let Me show Myself.”

Concealing What Is Growing Within Us

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

The Lord just spoke in my spirit. And He said, “There’s only a period of time from conception that woman is able to conceal that she’s expecting a child.” There’s only a season that she’s actually able to keep it from someone if she doesn’t want to tell it. But there comes a time, in most all cases, where the baby starts showing himself. He’s not born yet. Or she’s not born yet. But the baby’s showing that he’s there or she’s there. The belly begins to swell and grow. It’s a testimony to the world that something is growing inside the belly of this woman.

It’s only a period of time that we can conceal that which is growing within us. And then there comes a time that it needs and must be shown. And I believe that’s where we’re coming to in this hour. God’s saying, “It’s time to start letting it be shown. Let it be known that I am growing inside of you, that My Word is being formed inside of you and you’re being changed from the inside out. It’s time. You shouldn’t try to conceal it any more. But you should let Me show myself.”

Propping Up Collapsed Carport

July 4, 2003 (Friday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

And I saw this in vision today so plainly. I saw Susan in vision. This was one of the last things the Lord dealt with me before I had to get ready for church. I saw Susan running around. It was so strange because I wasn’t here.

By the time I came, this… No, no it was down. Was the carport still down when I arrived or had it already been put back up? It was still down. I saw Susan out here, I couldn’t remember if I’d saw it with my natural eyes or if I just remember it happening.

But the snow got so heavy out here that the thing collapsed. And I saw this carport out here collapsed. I didn’t see the snow. But I saw it broke down on one side in vision. And I saw Susan in this vision, running around, running all through the yard, all, here and there, looking for things to prop it up with.

And you know what she found? She found that, in vision I saw, she found that stick that was originally used to be broken in out there. That’s what it looked like to me. It might not have been that stick, but she found that stick and she was trying to prop up this thing.

And the vision ended and the Lord let me know that she really feels like…

Jonathan, it’s sad when you think about it, that she can save this thing. She sees it as a sinking ship.

She’s put on the Internet that because we baptize in the Name of Jesus, it’s a sinking ship. Isn’t that amazing? I believe it’s going to be a magnet. I don’t think it’s going to be a sinking ship.

I think when God started putting everything in His perfect and divine order and we start moving out from under the old and into the new that God has purposed forth, I think it’s going to be tremendous and we’re going to be greatly blessed.

Stretching Brings Enlargement

July 5, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

“…out of your comfort zone, for I will stretch you, says the Lord.I will stretch you. I will stretch you.There will come enlargement.Stretching brings enlargement.Release the old. (Hallelujah) Embrace the new.”

Would you just stand with me a moment? Hallelujah.Some of you’ve been seeking the will of God.Some of you’ve really been seeking the will of God in your life. I hope you’re ready for it.I hope you’re ready for His will to be revealed.

You know when we’re asking God for His will,we think we’re ready for it.I hope we’re ready to receive His will, because sometimes, according to what the Spirit is saying,His will stretches us.But the purpose of stretching you is not to harm you,it’s to enlarge you, hallelujah,so that there’ll be more room in your life for the things of God, and the purposes of the Lord.

The Lord was dealing with us a little bit earlier about deliverances that we need in our lives from the past, from the old,from the path that we’ve walked down, the scars that we carry, the things that we need to forget, that satan keeps reminding us of.

I believe the Lord has a very, very subtle deliverance for those of you that would be willing to reach up and embrace.I believe the Lord will break…It seems like He’s speaking to me now that the past, there’s some of you that the past has such a control on you. The things you’ve been through have such a hold on you.

You may not even be completely aware of how it’s hindering you, but I believe the Lord is saying this morning,He wants to move you so far beyond the pastinto something higher and something more glorious. Hallelujah.

Embrace the New

July 5, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

This is a new day, this is a new day.

This is a new day for you.

Release the old, release the old.

This is a new day, embrace the new.

The new is in you. The change is in you.

Release the old, embrace the new.

I’m calling you to a higher place.

Release the old, embrace the new.

I’m calling you to a higher place.

Release the old, embrace the new.

Out of your comfort zone,

For I will stretch you, saith the Lord.

I will stretch you. I will stretch you.

There will come enlargement.

Stretching brings enlargement.

Release the old, (Hallelujah) embrace the new.

(Tongues)

Would you just stand with me a moment? Hallelujah. Some of you have been seeking the will of God. Some of you have really been seeking the will of God in your life. I hope you’re ready for it. I hope you’re ready for His will to be revealed.

You know when we’re asking God for His will, we think we’re ready for it. I hope we’re ready to receive His will, because sometimes, according to what the Spirit is saying, His will stretches us. But the purpose of stretching you is not to harm you, it’s to enlarge you, hallelujah, so that there’ll be more room in your life for the things of God, and the purposes of the Lord.

You may not even be completely aware of how it’s hindering you, but I believe the Lord is saying this morning, He wants to move you so far beyond the past into something higher, something more glorious. Hallelujah…

Let’s just begin to worship the Lord among us. Everyone that will worship Him. Whether you can relate to what the Lord is saying or not, let’s worship Him. Because there’s one thing for sure, He is worthy.

You’re worthy, Lord,

You’re worthy, Lord.

You’re worthy, worthy… Lord. Hallelujah.

Bind the Word on Your Eyes Like Frontlets

July 13, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I was just seeing as I said that, in the Spirit I was just seeing a glimpse of a vision. And I could see those frontlets. My wife finds it a little odd when she sees the Jewish people praying with tefillin or phylacteries.

Do you know what it is? Do you know what it looks like? Trying to think if I have… I can’t remember if mine are here or not. I’ve had some for years. But I don’t think they’re in my office. But it’s a little leather box, little square box.

And they wear it right on their forehead like that and around their head. And leather straps come down and they wrap it around their arm and their thumb, it wraps a certain way and they pray with it at certain times. They pray with this on.

They get it… Jesus called it phylacteries. You read about it in the New Testament, phylacteries. But the Old Testament, guess what Scripture they get it from? From the same Scripture that we use the mezuzah, where it says bind it to the doorposts of your house.

And I do that. I believe it’s the right thing to do. It’s a symbol of a spiritual thing. All of the brothers that preached for me while I was gone, and all the brothers that led the singing, we brought them all a mezuzah. And I trust that they’ll have the courage to bind it onto their front door as a symbol.

And in that is the shuma, is the Scripture, “Here ye, oh Israel, the Lord is one.” And it’s the prayers. And from that same reference of Scripture, they use these phylacteries. And it says, “Bind them like frontlets upon your eyes.”

And they literally do it. This is not necessary. But it’s their interpretation. But I could just see in the Spirit there a moment, kind of like those blinders that the Amish people use on their horses. You’ve seen it?

They’re going down these busy highways, and these horses are easily distracted and spooked. And they put blinders. My wife, we were driving yesterday and we saw a big horse trailer and the horses were, they didn’t have on blinders, but they had on masks like.

Their whole faces were covered, blindfolded, their whole faces were. Just room down here to breathe. She said, “Why is that?” I said, “I assume it’s so they don’t get spooked.” And you’d think that’d be more spooky if you couldn’t see where you were. But perhaps that must be the reason why it was that way. I know it is with the Amish.

I could almost see that. God said, “Bind this Word upon your eyes like frontlets.” Why? Because He wants us focused. He don’t want you distracted. Focus ahead. Oh God. Help us to do it, Jesus.

I feel such an Anointing in that. I know I’ve preached it all day. But I feel such an Anointing in that. Anybody want to just claim that special grace to stay focused? If I could give you a gift, that would be my gift.

I wish I could just lay hands on your head and it would be like frontlets to you, that you’d be able to stay focused. Hallelujah. We sung an old song in Pentecost that said, “We’re almost home, children. Keep your eyes on the Savior.” Don’t be distracted in this late hour. Hallelujah.

See & Hear for I Am in Your Midst

July 20, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee this day. Yea, I’m doing a holy thing among you, saith the Lord. Many of you have not had eyes to see it yet. But yea, I say unto thee, keep looking toward Me. For yea, it is My desire to open your eyes that you would be able to see. To open your heart that you would be able to discern and to know that there is a holy work going on among you, saith God.

For yea, I am preparing a people to do that which I have called them to do. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, there are testings and there are trials, but I am the God of victory. And I am the One who gives victory. Yea, I am the One who gives strength to overcome, and to stand, and to move forward, saith the Lord.

Yea, I say unto thee, let Me open your eyes. Let Me anoint you even with eye salve, that you might be able to identify and see that holy thing that I am doing in people’s lives. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, there is a holy repositioning going on in the Spirit. Yea, I’m raising up and I’m pulling down.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I’m giving a new willingness. Yea, a new willingness is coming to those who have not been willing before. Yea, I’m sending a willingness, and they’re willing to stand, to step up, do that which I would do through them, saith the Lord.

Surely this is a holy thing. Yea, My Word is coming to pass. Nothing will stop it, saith God. For I will use you and sow you into that that I have desired to do. Not only among you, but also to that place that I’ve called you to favor, even Zion. Yea, the Lord would say unto you, “Look. Look and see. Look and see that which I have done, that which I am doing.”

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, watch your heart. Keep your tongue, that you would not sin against that that I’m doing in your midst. But that you would bless it, that you would anoint it with words of life, with My words.

For the Lord would say unto thee, you’re going to see a transformation. For yea, I’m going to gather you in the Spirit, even as I gathered the men unto David. Yea, from all walks of life. Yea, they were broken and they were in debt, and they were in trouble. But by My Spirit I gathered them from throughout the region, unto David. Glorious transformations took place in them. And I raised them up a mighty army, even so that they could go and take Jerusalem.

And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have also raised you up. I have taken you from various places. Yea, many of you have been misfits. Many of you have been pieces that didn’t seem to fit because of the things that you have known and suffered in your life. Can’t you see the holy thing that I’m doing in your midst? Can’t you see what I’m putting together?

Yea, for now it’s under the surface, and only those with spiritual eyes have been able to discern the great transformations that have taken place. But soon, the Lord said, I’ll bring it out from the darkness, out from beneath the surface. And I’ll cause it to shine forth. And you’ll see such an overcoming portion operating in one another.

Yea, to those who have only spoke the doubt, they shall raise up in this hour and speak faith. To those that have only spoken their words, they shall raise up in this hour and speak My Word. For a holy, holy thing is happening among you even now. Those who have eyes to see, and ears to hear, see and hear, for I am in your midst, saith the Lord.

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. We reverence You, Lord. We recognize Your hand in our midst. We recognize your hand among us.

The Days of Preparation

July 27, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

Let him who comes before Me, come with clean hands and a pure heart, saith the Lord. For I am seeking those who will worship Me in Spirit and in Truth. Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, this is the hour, and this is the day, and this is the time that I am gathering true worshipers unto Myself, saith the Lord. Those who will not only worship Me with the fruit of their lips, those who will not only make heavenly and glorious declarations, saith the Lord, those who will live a life of servitude and obedience to My Word. Yea, I call you in this hour.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have gathered you even unto this place, that I might speak to you, that I might reveal Myself unto you, that I might work a work of glory and a work of change in you, saith the Lord.

For the Lord would say unto thee, do not waste one moment. Do not let one service pass you by. But come into My Presence. Press your way in behind the veil, saith the Lord. For yea, I have chosen and ordained these coming days to work a work of preparation in you.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, your enemy would desire to distract you. Yea, he would desire to even cause you to miss a time of gathering together. But I call unto you to be faithful. I call unto you to bring whatever you have. Even if you feel empty, saith the Lord, come again. Come anyway. For I shall fill you, saith the Lord, if you’ll come into My Presence.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee again, this is the days of preparation. I have called you here to favor you, to bless you, to anoint you, to reveal Myself unto you. Yea, that I might work through you, saith the Lord. For I say unto thee, that the next coming months, yea, they’re very vitally important in My economy and Kingdom. For I desire to flow through you, saith the Lord, with words of deliverance. For I have ordained this place, saith the Lord, that I might speak forth from this place words of deliverance. You shall carry them forth.

Yea, you shall go forth in My Name and in My authority, saith the Lord. And yea, I shall give you power, even as I have promised you already power over all the powers of the enemy. And if you receive nothing else while you’re here, the Lord would desire that you would recognize anew and afresh, who you are, that I have chosen you and elected you and called you. Doubt not in your heart that you are Mine, for I have given you My love gifts to remind you that you belong to Me. Yea, I have kept you by My Presence, and I have provided for you to remind you that you are Mine.

So I say unto thee, rebuke your enemy and cause your thoughts to be centered upon Me. Do not miss one opportunity in these coming days to enter into My Presence. Even if you feel you’re the only one. Press in, says God. Press in, press in, and I shall make it worth your effort. Yea, I shall make it worth your while if you will take that initiative and move forth. Step forward, saith the Lord. You shall not be ashamed, neither shall you be disappointed, for I have called you to this place to work a work in you, so saith the Lord. (Tongues)

Yea, I shall confirm My Word, saith the Lord, among you with signs and wonders, and miracles. For I have spoken this, and so shall I bring it to pass. Yea, anoint your eyes with the eye salve of the Lord. And look, for you shall see My glory, My signs and wonders and miracles of healing, and deliverance shall take place among you in these coming days. Mark My words and see if I am a God who couldn’t lie, saith the Lord.

Drive Your Stake Down

July 27, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

In a vision, I just saw that God had chosen these days for some of us who have never really driven a stake, we’ve never really driven a stake. We never really had that real made-up mind. God said, “I’m going to give you this opportunity.” Let these days be days… We all need different things. Some of us have already driven our stakes down. We can’t be moved.

But the Lord was showing me that many of us this morning, we need to seize this opportunity. We need to lay a hold on this chance to drive our stake down and say, “Lord, this is my turning point. I want You to change my name. I want You to change my name. I want You to change my name. I want You to change my nature.”

Passing of the Baton

July 27, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I want some of you older brothers and sisters to go and lay your hands on the younger ones right now. I just saw in the Spirit. I just saw in the Spirit the changing of the guards. I just saw in the Spirit the passing of the baton. I just saw it. I just saw that the years of “Zoe,” the years of Zoe, the years of holding on to God, believing God for their lives, I just saw in the Spirit that it’s about to be worth the effort. I just saw in the Holy Ghost that we’re about to see the fruit.

I saw the changing of the guard, and I saw the baton being handed to a younger generation, that we hoped for, that we’ve held on to God for, that we’ve sowed and invested into their lives, that we’ve fasted for them. I just saw God desiring to raise them up. And I saw that some had their hands squeezed like this into a fist. I saw that some of the young had their hands squeezed like this in a fist.

And others had their hands laying open. And if your hand is closed, spiritually, you can’t receive the baton. You can’t receive the commissioning of the Lord. But if you’ll open your hand, if you allow God to cause your spiritual hand to be opened up, you can take the baton. You can receive that which the Lord desires to place in you.

I just had the unction of the Word of the Lord, that the changing of the guard is here. The passing on of the baton is here. (Tongues) You are holy, holy is Your Name… Oh, my Father, my Father. Let this be a day that a channel is created in their lives. Oh God, let this channel be dug out. Oh yes. Yes, yes.

I saw the Lord. I saw the Lord digging the channel. I saw the Lord digging the channel. (Tongues) Let there be some aggressive intercession right now. (Tongues) Break fetters, break chains, break desires that bind us, oh God. (Tongues) Hallelujah.

Being Clothed by the Spirit

July 27, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Dream given to Brother Tucker

Brother Shelley, this past weekend on the drive down here, me and my wife were very tired. And when we got to Sister Aleta’s and laid down and were resting, I fell asleep and I began to have a dream.

And I saw the tabernacle here and I saw the people in the dream. I saw God pouring out His Spirit. And my wife come in the room and it kind of startled me awake, and I was kind of grieved in my spirit because I knew that I was in a spiritual dream. And all at once it went from a dream into an open vision. And God just carried over into an open vision.

And I saw, like it was… The only way I can describe it was, great drops of God’s Spirit falling down on the congregation. And it fell first on… Brother Mike, isn’t this your younger daughter? It fell first down upon her.

And it was like a bubble. And it slowly wrapped around her all the way down on the hands and then all the way down around her feet. And she was just completely clothed in this bubble. And the sisters around her knew something had happened to her.

And whenever they reached over and laid their hands on her, the bubble went over and went up their arm and started clothing them, until finally drops were falling all over the congregation and people were being clothed.

And in the Hebrew Bible there’s one place in the Scripture it says that the Spirit of God clothed a prophet. And this is what God quickened to me in this open vision that God was clothing His people here by the Spirit.

And the Lord spoke these words. He said, “Ye that hear the words of His prophets during this service, be strong. Be strong, ye that hear the words of His prophets throughout this meeting. For He shall take and break the arm of your enemy.”

Hear what I’m saying. He said, “He shall take…” God shall take and break the arm of your enemies. And the word, the seed that goeth forth from thy mouth will be gladness and not sorrow. The seed that shall go forth from thy mouth after these camp meetings will always be for gladness and never again for sorrow. God’s clothing us here. He’s clothing us in His Spirit. And I rejoice in my God, just to be a part of this camp meeting, Brother Shelley.

Praising God with “Haleul” Praise

July 29, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Tucker

And Brother Shelley said something here today that kind of burdened my heart. Me and Patricia and different ones have been talking about it, that you know, all the times we got to come fellowship with you all up there in building up there in Columbus, we was just totally amazed at the liberty of worship.

But here it seemed like it’s kind of held back. Oh, there’s been liberty. But it’s not quite a breakthrough. Like Brother Shelley, if he hadn’t have said these words, I wouldn’t be saying this right now. But he said there hasn’t quite been a… There’s been a breakthrough, but not like it should be. I don’t remember exact words. But God told me to write this for you.

“For our sake God will not be silent, until our victory emerge resplendent. Our triumph will shine like a flaming torch.” Did you hear that, people? God, not you. God will not be silent until your victory, whatever battle you’re facing… Whatever the enemy… God has said whatever the enemy thrown against you, He will not be silent until your victory shines resplendent. I don’t even know what the word “resplendent” means. But I imagine it means something like “gloriously.”

Now, they sung a song last night. And in that song it said that God will give unto us, you and I, the oil of gladness for the oil of mourning. Now, I may not quote this just right. He said He’ll give us the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.

Now, some of you have been spiritually weighed down. But let me tell you something. He said if you have a spirit of heaviness, for whatever purpose, whether it’s for children, for health, or for anybody in your family, anything, if you’ve got a spirit of heaviness, He said if you’ll give that to Him, He’ll give you a spirit of praise.

Now, I checked up the Bible all through the Psalms about the words “praise.” And something jumped out at me. Everywhere in the Old Testament and the Psalms there’s seven different words in the Hebrew. And all these seven different words have different meanings. But every one of them is translated into English as “praise.”

One of them, it tells us to praise Him by clapping our hands. One of them tells us to praise Him by singing. But do you know how many times the word “haleul” is used? A hundred and seventy some odd times, where the rest of them are used twenty. I think the most any other praise is used by David is thirty-two times. But the word “haleul” praise is used a hundred and seventy some odd times. And the word “haleul” praise, that type of praise means two praise Him madly.

And this is what the word here He’s talking about. He will give you the garment of praise, praising Him madly, praising Him clamorously, praising Him like David did when he threw off his coat, and wouldn’t let nothing hinder him. Wouldn’t even let his wife up there in the upper room hinder him. He said, “I don’t care. I’m going to praise my God like a fool.” And this is what God has said He will give unto us tonight, a garment of “haleul” praise, if we will give Him the garment of heaviness. Whatever’s burdening you… Don’t worry about your children. They’re in the hands of God.

Sister Nancy said, “I want to see,” in the song, “The Angel of the…” Do you know He’s here? He’s here right now. Back there when I come into this place, I saw in a vision, an open vision, I saw just as clearly as I see you right now, I saw the Lord hovering over with His arms spread out, pressing, trying to press Himself down here. And when you started praising Him, He started pressing Himself down the more. Some of you plugged in, but not all of you.

I want every one of us, when Jonathan comes and sings this song, I want every one of us to forget about our neighbors, forget about our wives, forget about our husbands, forget about our burdens, and think on one thing, that the Angel of the Lord is in this tabernacle. And He’s here for one purpose, and that’s to bless you. You are His Bride. And He wants to bless you if you will bless Him.

And you know what He’s asking? He’s wanting you to reach up and give Him that garment of heaviness. So why don’t every one of us just shut our eyes and picture Jesus standing before you, the Angel of the Lord standing before you. And He’s got His hands outreached. And He’s reaching for something that’s in your hands. And He’s wanting something that you’ve got to be put in His hands.

Because in His right hand He has that garment of praise. And the moment you place that garment of heaviness in His hands, He’s going to place that garment of praise over you. He will clothe you with Himself. Would you do that right now, as Jonathan comes?

Dancing Through the Restored Eastern Gate

July 31, 2003 (Thursday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw in a vision as we were worshiping the Lord… My spiritual eyes were open. And as you were passing underneath the Israeli flag, my spiritual eyes… I was watching you for a while as you were enjoying making this trip around and under the flag, and dancing and worshiping the Lord.

But all of a sudden, I saw something with my spiritual eyes. I’ve never seen this before. But I saw the Eastern Gate to the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. And it’s a beautiful gate. I took a very beautiful picture standing in the Garden of Gethsemane, looking up through the Bougainvillea to the Eastern Gate in the background.

And many years ago, the Turks sealed that gate because they knew that it was Jewish understanding that when Messiah comes, He will come through the Eastern Gate. And they really believed that if they sealed it, they could stop the Messiah from coming back. And not only that… (We’re talking about in the five-hundreds, I think it was.) And not only that, they made a Muslim cemetery out in front of the Eastern Gate. Because they said if Messiah comes He would be so holy; He would not defile Himself among these dead bodies.

And so they really have believed for hundreds of years that they have cut off Messiah from returning to the Jewish people. But how many of you know that no cemetery and no sealed gate is going to hold Yeshua back? Hallelujah. Because He’s coming back. He’s not only coming back to receive His Bride. But we’ve received a revelation there’s three comings. He came the first time to redeem His Bride. He’s coming the next time to receive His Bride. And then He’s coming with His Bride. Hallelujah. And when He comes with His Bride, every eye will see Him.

And I just had a wonderful vision of the Eastern Gate. As you were running around praising the Lord, I saw that the gates had been restored, that the actual gates were back in place, instead of this sealing that has sealed up this double gate. And I saw that these gates were swinging in and out. As we were worshiping the Lord, I saw that even the gates were moving back and forth in a rhythm.

Now, that may sound strange. But Flavius Josephus tells, who was a Jewish historian, he tells that very strange and unusual things took place in the temple. And he says that there were times when no one was around that these heavy iron doors, that took a host of priest to open them and close them, he said there were times that these doors would open and close on their own accord, as the Shekinah Glory moved back and forth through the temple.

And I was just kind of sensing that supernatural moving of the Eastern Gate. And all of a sudden I began to see the Bride of Christ. And I knew that it was some of this crowd right here. I saw us begin to run up through that hill, up that hill. And I saw us running through the Eastern Gate. And the Spirit of the Lord spoke into my spirit. And He said, “Prepare the way. Prepare the way.” Hallelujah.

Prepare the way. And I believe that’s what God has called the Bride to do. You see, I heard a mighty prophetic ministry. And I heard him say that the Jews have given us the Gospel. And he said, “I believe with all of my heart that it is our responsibility to take this Gospel back to the Jews.”

And I could just hear the Spirit of the Lord say, “Prepare the way. Prepare the way.” I believe Messiah is coming. I believe Israel is about to get her Messiah.

The Wells Have Been Re-Dug

August 3, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, My children, this morning. Yea, I shall cause you to taste of that which is old, and yet so new. For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have seen the wells that have been dug, saith the Lord. Yea, I have heard your prayers and I have seen your sacrifice. And yea, you have caused wells that have been stopped up, yea, to be cleaned out in these past days, saith the Lord.

Yea, many, many wells that have been closed in, have now been reopened, saith the Lord. And yea, I shall cause you, even in these next few days and meetings, saith the Lord, I shall cause you to drink of water that you have not known for some time. Yea, water that’s been there all along, but the enemy has come to stop up the source.

But yea, the Lord would say unto thee, the wells have been re-dug. I have heard your prayer. Yea, I have seen your sacrifice, saith the Lord. And I shall cause rivers to flow again. And yea, you shall drink of that which is so old, and yet you shall feel as though it is so new. For yea, it shall be for such a time as this.

Yea, the set time is come. And yea, I the Lord thy God, will cause you to drink. Yea, drink. Yea, you shall know the old power. Yea, you shall know the old deliverances, saith the Lord, for it shall come in the old way, the way that I have chosen, the way that I have ordained, saith the Lord, for those who walk uprightly. Yea, for those who are not filled with compromise, saith the Lord, but those who desire to walk before Me in righteousness.

Yea, the Lord thy God would promise you. Yea, I promise you, and I covenant with you that if you will step forth, saith the Lord. And yea, in these next few days if you will press in, I shall fill this House with My Glory, saith the Lord. And yea, the latter shall be greater than the former. For the wells have been re-dug. And you shall drink, oh, you shall taste of My Glory. And It shall be satisfying before My face, saith the Lord God.

Fly or Die Time

August 6, 2003 (Wednesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

Now I want you to praise Him like you did a moment ago. Now I want you to step right out of the cave of Adullam, and step down into the valley of Judah. Hallelujah… I want you to leave behind your discontent, your debt, and your distress, and say, “Lord, I know that I know that I know… that greater is He that is in me, than he that is in the world. “Lord, I know that I know that I know that there’s a reservation for a blessing in my name.” Hallelujah…”

I no more than said that, but I saw shackles coming off just quickly like that. I saw shackles come off of people’s feet. And I saw feet moving up and down as fast as bobbin on a sewing machine. The needle on a sewing machine, I saw feet just moving like that. Up and down, up and down, up and down… in the Spirit, as shackles were coming off. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. I’m not trying to work you up. I’m just telling you what I saw. And it could be just as easy as that, because it’s your choice. “Die or fly. Fly or die.” Hallelujah.

Coming Before Him Without Pretense or Facade

August 9, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley

Earlier in the service the Lord was dealing with me about the word “pretense.” I could hear the Spirit of God speaking about someone putting on a pretense, almost like a facade. Living one life when you’re around church, church people, but oh, such darkness in your heart and your spirit.

The Word of the Lord came through our brother calling. Not condemning, calling. God said, He would erase your past. He would wipe it clean. He would forget all about it. God despises religion. He’s looking for you to be real before Him. Without any pretense, without any facade. Allow the Spirit of God to speak to your heart right now.

The Captain of the Host Going Before

August 9, 2003 (Saturday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Tucker

Brother Shelley, I saw seven angels standing with you. And they had their swords drawn, standing right behind you like a holy company. Brother, My God has said, these angels are going wherever you go. Their swords will not be sheathed. They’ll remain raised toward heaven, because the Captain of the Host is going before you, my brother.

Bringing to Pass Promises in Our Lives

August 10, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Message in Tongues given through Sister Adelaida Vidal & Interpretation given through Brother Shelley

For the Lord would say unto thee, do not leave this place walking out with your feelings. Leave out from under this place this day, saith the Lord, with your faith. For yea, I have touched You, for I have been in the midst.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have caused even diseases to retreat. For yea, My Presence has been here. Even in the moments that you were not aware of Me, I was with you.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, whatever your need of deliverance or healing is, go out of here by faith. For the Lord would say unto thee, I have touched You this day with My Presence. Yea, I shall hover about you even this evening, saith the Lord.

For the Lord would say unto thee, that even in this day, before you have laid your head down on the pillow at night, you will know that I have brought to pass some of My promises in many of your lives, saith the Lord.

The Son of Righteousness Has Risen with Healing in His Wings

August 10, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

When we had put up the prayer shawls, the tallits, the chuppahs, and you were walking under them, I looked up and I thought that it was Sis. Nancy, because I see her, have seen her with her tallit worshiping the Lord and holding it out like that.

And at first glance, I just looked up, I thought it was her and I looked somewhere else as you were walking around and dancing under the chuppah. I didn’t think another thing about it except I thought to myself, “It’s just not likely that it was her.”

It just kind of come to me, wasn’t likely that it was her and that I should look again. And as I looked up again, waiting for that to come, waiting for that person… I could see it coming around this way, as I come around, I could see that it was not Sis. Nancy, but I believe it was the Angel of the Lord.

I hated to tell it. I felt checked earlier to tell it, because people are paranoid. But I saw what I believe to be the Angel of the Lord. And as we preached this morning, He had His arms stretched out, both sides in that tallit, fulfilling among us, Malachi, where it says, “The Son of righteousness has risen with healing in His wings.”

So I’m going to believe because He was with us and manifested Himself, I’m going to believe that many will receive complete and total miracles of healing. Whatever your need is tonight, God is more than able to heal you and to deliver you.

Keeping My Appointment with Jerusalem

August 12, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Message in Tongues given through Sister Adelaida Vidal & Interpretation given through Brother Shelley

Oh, remember My love for her, saith the Lord. Remember that I have chosen her. Remember that I have loved her from the beginning, My Jerusalem, saith the Lord. Remember I have spoken that he that would come against her, he that would raise his hand against My people, would be utterly cut off.

Yea, the Lord would say unto thee, it’s not only in the natural, but also in the spiritual. Yea, it’s not only him or her that would hinder her, Jerusalem in the natural, but also those who would hinder her in the spiritual. And yea, those that would move to strike down the revival that I have promised, yea, they’re hindering her. But yea, I the Lord thy God would say unto thee, I shall not suffer her to miss My appointment.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, I have made My appointment with Jerusalem, and with all of Israel. And I will keep it, saith the Lord. And nothing, or no one, will hinder Me. Turn your faces toward My Jerusalem, for I will do that which I have promised. And yea, nothing will be able to stop Me, saith the Living God.

Star Rising Over Jerusalem

August 12, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I just saw, as I was coming to the end of the song, I just saw a star rising in Jerusalem. I saw a star rising out of the horizon up over the City of Jerusalem. And the Lord was dealing with me quickly, that it was symbolic of the star that had risen over Bethlehem at the birth of the Messiah.

And the Lord… I could see it. It was rising up in the evening sky. I could literally see it moving in the Spirit. I believe, spiritually it’s a symbol of the expression of the Man-child being born, fulfilling the Scripture, when the Messiah is born in the hearts of believers.

A Finished Date Marked on the Calendar

August 17, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

And I’m seeing as I stand here. I’m seeing that calendar again. And I’m seeing that year and that date. And God’s helped me to know even at that time, this was the time that we could look back across the campground and say it’s finished.

Now as long as our vision is divided, and we’re in Columbus and we’re here, we don’t put much effort into this place except a few weeks out of the year. But we’ve got to begin to see this as our vision. We’ve got to begin to see God’s promises and His plans for us in this Refuge. That’s what the Holy Ghost call it.

Help me a little bit. He called this a Refuge. And we’ve got to see our vision in it. And we’ve got to realize that it’s got to be maintained. We’ve got sacrifices to make. And we’ve got to put our heart into it and believe.

Stirring Up a Den of Vipers

August 17, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw a little vision that I think I should share. I saw what looked like a pile of brush. And it wasn’t very large, but it was very much out of place. I knew that this pile of brush shouldn’t be there. I could tell that it was in a place that it shouldn’t be. It was like in a walking path where people were walking.

And I said, “Somebody has got to move that pile of brush out of the way, so that we can walk on this path.” And I can’t imagine why anybody would have left it here. And somebody turned and they said, “Brother Shelley, it’s time to build. It’s time to build.” And I said, “What do you mean, it’s time to build?” And this brother, a brother’s voice said to me, “It’s time to fulfill the vision.”

And I said, “That’s right. But before we fulfill the vision, we’ve got to clear out this path here.” And we reached down. And this brother, the second brother who was with me, he said, “I’ll do it. I can do it all by myself.” He said, “I don’t even need your help. Just let me grab this pile…”

And it looked like it was small enough that he could just grab and lift it up. And as he reached down with both arms to lift up this pile of brush, I saw working down in a little hole, like… The brush was laying on top of a little hole. I saw wiggling and working down in that hole.

And I said, “What in the world is that?” And we stepped closer. And what we were looking into looked like a pit. And it wasn’t large serpents. It was little bitty small snakes. And they looked to be about a foot long. And they were real skinny like a pencil. And they were just working on top of one another. Just working on top of one another, wiggling and wrapping themselves, writhing around one another.

And I said to the brother. “Oh brother, what does this mean? What does this mean? We’ve got to get all of this out of the way.” And he looked at me and he said, “I think the Lord is telling me that what you’re about to do is going to stir up a den of vipers.”

And I said, “Whatever do you mean?” And I said, “Notice, these aren’t big old serpents and snakes. They are little bitty snakes.” And the brother said, “That’s right. But they’ve been hiding here a long time.”

I didn’t want to share that with you. But I felt like it was important. Because when you feel like God’s calling you in a direction and you make a commitment to do it, any old spirit that’s been hiding, is kind of hiding under the surface, it can certainly be stirred up.

You’ll feel it in your home perhaps. Maybe when you come to church. Maybe in your health. I don’t know what the enemy will do, but I know that greater is he that is in us than he that’s in the world.

I issue you a solemn warning in the Spirit. It will never mean to me, it will never mean to me that God is not with us. I’ll never take it as a sign that God is not saying, “Go forth and fulfill the vision.” I’ll know now that no matter what comes, no matter what we face, I’ll know now that it’s the hand of the enemy. I’ll know that it’s something laying under the surface. And that God will actually be using this forward thrust to dislodge.

It looked like a nest. They looked like they’d just been balled up there so long, and they were just… As the brush was taken off, they just started working over one another.

Brother, if there is anything under the surface in my life or yours that doesn’t need to be there, I want God certainly to do away with it. I want Him to give us the grace to lay hold on every spirit that’s not like Him, for us to fulfill what the Lord has called us to do.

The Season of Great Shifting in the Spirt

August 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

The Lord is saying in my spirit that the season is upon us, that great shiftings in the Spirit, great shiftings and adjustments are going to be made in the Spirit-realm to set in order the things that are out of order. And I saw God shifting people from backslidden conditions into places of leadership and authority in the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Hallelujah.

I saw it even like an earthquake that causes disturbances in the plates of the earth, causes the plates, the flat plates of the earth shift. I saw them as they were shifting. But I knew that it was God putting them back into their place of order, and even an order that has never been visible, even a plan that has never been manifest. God desires to do that.

Plot of the Enemy Ruined by the Rain of the Holy Ghost

August 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I had a vision as I was singing that song. And I saw a piece of paper. I knew it was an important paper. And I saw in cursive writing, some words, some paragraphs on the paper. I couldn’t see what they were, but I saw the name that was on the paper. And I knew in the Spirit, I knew in the Spirit that this was a plan that had been drawn up, had been drafted concerning this person. And it was as though that paper was being delivered. And it was serious. I know that it was serious. I know it wasn’t of God. And it was as though the paper was being brought out to be delivered to be put in action.

But I began to see and feel those huge drops of rain, not that fine mist of rain, but those huge big old drops. You ever been in the car or in a mobile home with a tin roof when those big old drops would begin to fall? I’ve been in a car when those huge drops would begin to fall on the hood and the windshield.

I saw those big huge drops of rain begin to fall and I saw that the paper was becoming so wet that the ink was beginning to run. Hallelujah. And I saw that God was saying, “Enough. You haven’t hidden this from Me.”

I heard that God, in my spirit, I heard that God was saying, “You haven’t hidden this from Me, I know your plan, I know your plot, I know what you have set out to do. But I’m spoiling it.” Hallelujah. The rain, Lord, send the rain of the Holy Ghost. Hallelujah.

Grab it. (Tongues) Hallelujah… “For I shall spoil the spoiler.” (Hallelujah. Tongues) Hallelujah. The whole plan was ruined and foiled because the rain just smeared the… You know what happened. Oh, thank You, Jesus.

The Crowning Moment

September 14, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

The moment I put the microphone in the stand, I saw the campground in the Spirit. And I saw crown, a beautiful golden bejeweled crown coming down over this fifty-six acres of property. And the Lord spoke just that quick. And He said, “Your crowning moment is just ahead. The moment of the crowning is just ahead, that crowning moment.”

Suddenlies Bursting Forth

September 14, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

A little earlier when we were worshiping the Lord, I saw a vision. I saw a wooden door, a very beautiful wooden door that was closed. Of course, we always like to see open doors, not closed doors. But underneath the door, on what would be like the threshold or the pad of stepping in through the door, the door appeared to be an inside-outside door, a door that would enter into the inside from the outside.

Down on what looked like the stone underneath the door, and in front of the door, I saw water beginning to flow. And it looked as though, it reminded me of a leak, you know, something happened. Plumbing or something had bursted, and the water was running out from under the door. But there was such a peace about it. Normally when we see water running through the house, or out of the house like that, we would be so concerned. But I felt so peaceful about it. And I knew that it was the Lord. And it was spiritual, it meant something.

And it’s strange, but I had such a desire to put my feet in it, in that water that was seeping out from under the door. I had such a desire to take my shoes and socks off, and put my feet in the water, although it wasn’t very deep. But it just continued to grow, the wet spot continued to grow. And all of a sudden, I could see that the door was beginning to bulge at the force of the water that had been building. (Tongues) Hallelujah. I could see that the water was beginning to bulge, the door was beginning to bulge at the force of the water behind the door. I could see the door giving and warping, bulging, until I could even see that it was straining at the very hinges.

I didn’t see the door open. I didn’t see the water come bursting forth. But I believe it was another promise, another encouragement from the Lord, that there is something building in the Spirit.

The Lord spoke to me last night in study, yesterday afternoon in study. In such a clear way I heard the Voice of the Lord. And He was speaking to me again about the suddenlies. And I said, “Lord, You know I don’t mean to be stubborn. But I really don’t want to hear anything about the “suddenlies.” I really said that. Because You promised suddenlies, and I didn’t see “suddenlies” so much. And so give me another Word.

And the Lord pricked my heart and He said, “The selling of the church was a “suddenly.” I said, “Lord, four years we waited for it to sell.” And yet the Lord said, “Yes, but it sold suddenly when it was My time. When it became My time, it sold just like that without much strain or much effort.” And the Lord said, “You’re in that season now, just before the suddenlies.”

He said one other thing I want to share, while I feel the anointing to share. He said, “It depends on whether or not you’re walking in the flesh, or whether you’re walking in the Spirit.” He said, “If you’re walking in the flesh, you will think that I am doing nothing. If you’re walking in the Spirit, you will sense and know that this is the season just before the “suddenlies of God” begin to break forth.

I wrote that down before some brothers came over to see us. I wrote that down and put it in my Bible. And then after they left I took it out and read it again. And I woke up this morning and took it out and read it again.

And then, I believe this door that the Lord showed me was a confirmation again that we… If we’re walking in the flesh, if we’re thinking flesh thoughts, if we’re discerning things by the will of the flesh and the thoughts of the flesh, then it doesn’t look like there is that much happening. But if we’re walking in the Spirit, we’ll be able to see that that water that’s just oozing out under the door, that’s good. And oh, how we desire to put our feet in it.

But that that’s behind that door, that’s causing the force and the building up of the Glory of God behind that door that’s causing that door to bulge, I want that. I want you to tell the Lord this morning, “I want that. That that is beyond the door, that that is behind the door. I thank You for that that is oozed and seeped out from under the door.

But oh God, we hunger and we thirst for Your Glory that’s (Tongues) It’s our promise. It’s our heritage. It’s our inheritance, and we believe You for the abundance in the Name of Yeshua HaMeshiach we believe for that that is growing. Hallelujah.

Bumps & Hurdles in the Road

September 21, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw a vision just a few days ago in prayer. I went in the washroom of our condominium where we were. And shut the door. And I had no more than flipped on the light and shut on the door, but I saw a vision. And I saw what I call a steam roller. But I don’t know what it’s called.

It looked like a machine with a big old roller on the front of it, and a smaller looking roller on it too. And it was rolling along this flat surface. It looked like asphalt. And all of a sudden I saw that thing jerk up that way, and make such a terrible racket. If you would have been in it, it would have given you whiplash, like hitting that little bump there, if you forget about. It shakes your brain to reality.

I saw that steam roller really buck up like that. And flop back down. And the vision focused, and I was able to see what looked like a log or a pole. More like a telephone pole than a log, because it was trimmed up. And it looked finished off somehow.

And that steam roller had gone right over it. A few minutes and there was another one. And it went right over it. And it was gone. A few other little things I’ll just leave. It was gone. And I said, “Lord, what in the world does that mean?”

And the Lord said, “I just want to remind you that there are going to be a few bumps and a few hurdles in the road, a few things that will have to be dealt with. But I just want to remind you that everything behind that door is yours. You just keep pressing toward Me.”

Hallelujah. And so when I come this morning, I feel like a steam roller. I’m going to roll on. Somebody help me. I’m going to roll on. When I hit a log, I’m going to roll on. When I’ll hit a bump, I’m going to roll on. If I hit a bad spirit in somebody else, I’m going to roll on. When people get again where they won’t speak to me, I’m going to roll on. I have no choice but to keep pressing on, because I know that behind that door there is something for me.

God, give us a vision. Let us not live in dreams. But give us that inspiration that drops down. You know, a vision can be a frightening thing, because it takes us out of our comfort zone. When God puts in our spirit, “I’m going to use You.”

I used to love asking people that I called up. I used to love to say over people when I travel, “You know God’s going to use you. Don’t you?” I love asking them that because it drained all the color out of their face, and they go. “Oh…”

That’s a vision. They may not know how God’s going to use them. But something, and circumstances have come in such a way that they have been able to perceive that God’s hand was on their life, and that is a fearful thing. Job even said that God had frightened him, and had scared him, and terrified him with dreams and visions.

It can be a terrifying thing when God says, “I’m fixing to change something in your life.” Some of you even to this day, (and we’re closing after a while) some of you to this day, you still don’t even perceive or understand what kind of ministry this is. Or you would not be surprised at where we are. Because He prepares us way in advance.

God said, “I’m going to rearrange your life.” God said, “What kind of rearrangement are you going to do My will?” God was trying to prepare us and get us ready to be fluid, and to be able to be rearranged.” And look, God did some major rearranging in us this year. Took us to the land of the Bible and rearranged our lives, and plans, and schedules.

Sometimes the enemy tries to put fear in my heart when I’m riding down the highway. And I think about the fact that our church in Columbus is gone. And here we are. And this is what we have. And I have to reach ahead. I have to stir up the vision. I have to remind myself that the God who was faithful to show it, is the God who is going to be faithful to fulfill it and bring it to pass.

Healing Flowing from the Throne

Spiritual Song, Sung by Brother Shelley

From the throne a river of life

Come and drink this living water

That flows from the throne

(Repeat)

Oh I see healing flowing from the throne

I see healing flowing from the throne

Come drink this water receive your healing

There is a river that flows from the throne

His Train Filled the Temple

September 28, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw in the Spirit that the Lord was lifted up high in this place and His train filled the temple as He was lifted high above us. And I heard the Voice of the Angel of the Lord say, “The Son of righteousness has risen with healing in His wings.” Hallelujah…

Examine God’s Voice

October 12, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I was going to my mailbox one day. Monday, I think it might have been. Either Monday or Tuesday I was going to my mailbox. And just before I got to my mailbox, a vision broke before me. And I saw something in the Spirit. And I don’t even want to begin to try to describe what I saw.

But I came back in and I… And had occasion later to mention it to my wife and maybe to someone else. I said, “I saw the deceiving spirit. I saw the spirit of deception that was involved. And I found it so confirming and so strange, because my wife and I had had occasion to hear some of the reasons on Sunday afternoon of last week.

And I found it so odd and so unusual as we came so needy. We came so needy to the service. And we were sitting there. And as the testimonies were going forth, I found it so strange, the testimony that Sister Joyce gave that night when she talked about this king who had a Word from the Lord. He had a Word from the Lord.

And later it panned out that this was not a Word from Jehovah God, Yahwe. And she so explained that this Word from his lord. And he was thoroughly convinced that God had spoken to him.

And you know, you can be absolutely thoroughly convinced that you’ve heard from God and be listening to the wrong voice. And that’s why the prophet taught us how to examine God’s Voice. And we look at where God’s voice is leading us.

God Sifting His People

October 19, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

While we were worshiping the Lord,I saw a large bowl in the Spirit, sitting on a table.And it reminded me of my Grandmother’s biscuit bowl.She used to keep flour in a trash can that had never been used for trash. It was about that tall and had a domed lid and it had metal handlesthat folded up over the lid to lock it down.

She kept her flour there.And it was wide enough that she could keep this big wooden biscuit bowl, bread bowl in it and that’s what she mixed her, put her flour in. I can see her.She’d get that bowl out and then she’d reach down with a scoop and get the flour and fill up the bowl.

And I’d see her take her hand and put the valley down in the flour and then pour the milk and start pulling the flour down into the center to make the dough to make the biscuit. But I saw what looked like my Granny’s biscuit bowl sitting on a table. And it was full of flour. I knew it was flour by the color.But I would’ve never known it by the consistency,because I saw that it was lumpy and full of big clogs of flour, hardened flour. Perhaps moisture or something had caused it. And these big clumps.

And I knew there was only one solution and that was to sift that flour. And I saw this large sifter, hand sifter, like Granny used to sift the flour. And I saw the hand reach inand start putting that old lumpy flour in that sifter and turn that sift. And I could hear it. Now this is how real it was. It reminded me of my own experiences.I could hear those metal pieces in that sifteras they would hit one another like that.

And when that flour was coming out,of course it was just as fine as it could be and all the lumps were out. And my mind immediately thought of the Scripture where Jesus said to Peter,“Peter, satan hath desired to sift you as wheat, but I have prayed for you that your faith fail not.” And I knew that that’s not like sifting flour.

That’s a different kind of sifting.That’s in the sifting of the wheat, not after the wheat has been made to the flour. But that was the first thought that came into my mind.But the Spirit of the Lord corrected my understanding of the vision. And He said that it was not satan.The point that God wants to make to us tonight is,it’s not satan who wants to sift us. It’s God who wants to sift us.

And sometimes He has to allow the enemy to be the sifter. Sometimes He has to allow the enemy to be the troublemaker. But the desire in the heart of God is to sift us,not to destroy us, but to get all those lumps out.

And I immediately found myself praying, cause I would’ve misunderstood what the Lord was showing. But I immediately found myself praying, “Oh God, pour me into that…” You’d better know what you’re praying, you know, cause as I said, sometimes God uses the devil. He allows the devil.

Remember the prophet said that Satan is no more than a tool in the hand of God to perfect the saints. And I could see that sifter. But I could see that it wasn’t the devil desiring to break you up. Because the product is a finer, more usable flour.

Satan doesn’t want to make you finer. He doesn’t want to make you more usable. His desire is to destroy you, to blow you away in the wind. But God’s desire is to get the lumps out of us. Oh hallelujah. Hallelujah.

So let’s just be willing tonight. Let’s be willing tonight for God to… Whatever it takes. You know, I don’t necessarily think it’s going to mean terrible, terrible tragedies and so forth to get us. I mean, if you’ve surrendered your will to God, He’s not going to have to beat you down to make you into what He wants you to be.

Angels Moving in Divine Synchronization

October 21, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I just saw a vision. And I saw those angels moving again in divine synchronization before the Throne of the Lamb. I saw them bowing their heads and moving in the same rhythm and the same flow. And God is of course saying that’s what we have to do. We’ve got to stay in the channel of what God is doing.

Strength for Him & Them

October 26, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Dream given to Brother Bobby Meeks

I would just like to tell the first dream I had, probably about seven or eight months ago. I’m not sure exactly.

In the first dream, I saw Brother Shelley. He was standing on the platform. And then it’s like all of a sudden, he fell to the back. And it was, I guess it was kind of like somebody was shot and they just fall. Anyways, as this happened, he was lying there on the platform. I could see it. And Sister Stacey was over him, and she was crying and praying.

And I was looking through this, looking at this whole picture here like through a window. It could have been just plain glass, or it could have been a window. I didn’t really notice if it had window frames or anything.

But as I was looking through this from the outside of this window, this glass, there were other people were around. And we were all crying and praying in the sawdust. And I could see a red spot on Brother Shelley’s shirt, right above his heart. And suddenly, he rose up and he started walking. And he walked off the platform, and he walked down this path. I could see the path, and I saw people following. And that was the end of the dream. That was my first dream.

On October 18th, I the same dream, but it was more detailed. I saw one more thing in this second dream than I saw in the first dream. And I’d like to tell you that one. I saw Brother Shelley standing on the platform, suddenly falling back. Just like in the first dream. Sister Stacey was there, and of course crying. And the rest spot was also there, just like in my first dream. But this time a voice spoke to me and said, “The first dream was a warning to him and them of an unexpected hurting to come.”

And as I heard this, I started crying. In my dream I started crying and asking the Lord to forgive me for not telling Brother Shelley about the first dream. And I stopped crying. And the voice spoke and said again, “This dream, this dream I was having, is to strengthen and to encourage him and them.” And it was like, when I heard “him and them,” it was like it stressed “him and them.” To make sure that I knew it was “him and them.”

And just like in the first dream, I was standing on the outside of the window of glass, along with other people crying, praying. This time, as I heard the voice speaking, I could feel and see strength coming from me and all the people that were standing around me. It was coming from us. And as I looked, it was flowing into Brother Shelley. And suddenly he rose and he started walking, just like in the first dream. But this time in this dream, not like the other dream, I saw his face. And his face and boldness and strength and determination.

And he began walking off the platform again, and down this path. I could see all the way down the path this time. And the path was not curvy. (I remember Brother Shelley said something about, what was the word? Switchback.) And I could see it. I was standing here on top and I could it just going all the way down the mountain. I could see the people following him. And I heard the voice again. And the Voice said to me, “They are not sure of the path, but they follow him because he follows Him, which makes the path straight.”

And as I heard these words, I saw this path. It just went straight all the way down. And it just, it really ministered to me. And at first it was like the devil tried to beat me up because I didn’t say anything about the first dream. But the Lord got glory out of the second dream. He knew what I was going to do. He knew it before. And that was His plan.

But I really felt like this really should have been shared. I was hoping it does strengthen and encourage everyone that we are going down the right path. As long as we follow our shepherd, because he is following the Lord. We have to follow him. And I know that my heart that I am going the right way, as long as I am following Brother Shelley. Because the Lord is using him. I wanted to be sifted. “Sift all the lumps out of me, Lord.” I just want to thank the Lord.

Humming Cedars

November 2, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I just saw in the Spirit… I didn’t expect to see anything. But I just saw in the Spirit those cedar trees again, that were bending and bowing on the tops of the mountain. As the wind was blowing, and I could see them bending and bowing, almost to the point of being pushed over.

And I remembered the sermon that I’d preached so many times about those cedar trees. And how that when the wind would blow through them, it would cause a song, a pitch, a sound to emanate. And legends said that David would tune his harp to the pitch of those humming cedars, those singing cedars.

And they’re the least attractive of all the cedar trees. They’re not full. They’re not as green. They’re not as thick, bushy. They’re most spindly and the limbs are farther apart. Their real beauty is not seen when things are still, when things are calm. But their real beauty is only known when the storms and tests are coming, and they’re bending over and bowing. And a song comes out of that.

Oh God, would You deliver us into a Paul and a Silas song. Give us a song in the night, in the jailhouse, in the midnight hour. Give us the song of those humming cedars, that we could glorify You in whatever we’re facing. Hallelujah.

An Excitement in Someone’s Life

November 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

When we were speaking in the early part of the service about an awakening taking place among the people in Jerusalem, I was speaking generally over the city. But the Lord just dropped a word into my heart. I know that it would be special for Martina, because I know her love and burden.

But the Lord just dropped a word into my heart about something happening in the spirit realm, even in the old city. Hallelujah. I don’t know who it would be, or where they would be, or where they’re living. But I was just sensing an awakening in somebody’s heart, a quickening in their spirit. And for just a split second, in the Spirit, I was feeling the excitement that somebody’s feeling. Hallelujah.

There’s an excitement coming into somebody’s life. And they don’t know what it’s all about. Hallelujah. But they know that something’s changing, and something’s happening. And they’re asking; they’re enquiring. Oh, God, send the right answers, Lord, their way. Hallelujah. Send the right answers, Lord, so that revival can come forth. In the wonderful Name of Yeshua.

The Cloak of the Anointing of God

November 9, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I was sensing in the Spirit, one of the reasons why it’s so important for us to be together like this in the Presence of God… I was seeing the Presence of the Lord going over us like a cloak, a coat. And I was seeing that these weekly times of coming together in the Glory… I know we experience God every day.

But there’s something about a corporate anointing, when people come together, to believe God together. And I saw it going on like a coat, and how important it was that we wear that every day. Especially in our ministry here, whatever your ministry is, whatever God’s using you for. When you’re walking about Zion, when you’re walking in a place like this, it’s so important that we get that cloak of the Anointing of God, that we wear it out among the people.

And I was just seeing that the Lord had brought us here this morning, just clothing us in Himself, Hallelujah, so that when we walk out of here, we walk out of here wearing Him, Hallelujah, and bearing Him to those that we come in contact with.

A New Word with New Authority

November 15, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophecy given through Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee this day, you have known My Anointing. Yea, you have known My authority, saith the Lord. Yea, many of you have flowed in My channel. But the Lord would say unto thee in this hour, it is My desire to take thee to a higher level of Anointing.

Yea, not just an Anointing that would quicken your flesh or cause you to feel good in My Presence. But yea, I want to anoint you with My authority, saith the Lord, so that you would move in a new level. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, the Word of the Lord is nigh thee, even in thy mouth.

And it is my desire to cause My Word to come forth out of your mouth, accomplishing My will, saith God. Yea the Lord would say unto thee, it is My desire even now, to place My Words so mightily in you that when you speak, the angels of the Lord hasten to preform My Word in you.

Yea the Lord would say unto thee, many shall go forth with words of deliverance, saith God. And yea, the Lord would say unto thee, look unto the situations in your life, and the circumstances. And yea, even the Lord would say, friends and acquaintances, that you know that are in desperate need, and circumstances that seem impossible, yea, the Lord would say unto thee, sow a fresh Word of authority, sow a fresh Word of deliverance into that life and into that situation. Yea, even publicly do it, saith the Lord, or maybe even in your secret chamber.

But I, the Lord thy God do quicken thee to sow forth a fresh Word. It shall not be the same Word. It shall not be an old Word. But it shall be a new Word, saith the Lord, with new authority. And it shall accomplish new things.

For yea, the Lord would say unto thee, there is deliverance nigh, even above your head at this moment. Reach up, saith the Lord, and accept it. It is for you. Take it with you and use it in your life, said the Lord.

A Place of Turning the Corner

November 15, 2003 (Saturday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

Change is birthed… The Lord is speaking through my spirit now. Change is birthed in us in those furnaces of affliction. Hallelujah. I’m receiving a word from the Lord for someone. If God would show me who, I would certainly declare it personally. But until He does, I’ll just speak it general.

But I saw that the Lord was getting ready to cause someone to turn a great corner in their life. I love this word. I’ve received it several times before. It means something to me. Because I heard a teacher say one time that any mason… You know today… Maybe I shouldn’t say this in Jerusalem because it’s Shabbat. But we’re building a new church on our campground.

And our brothers are laying block, not now, not yet. Well maybe, maybe not quite yet. But they’re laying block today for the foundation, for the concrete to be poured on our new church building.

And I can see those masons, you know. They tell me that anybody almost, who has any experience at all, can lay stone in a straight line. But when it comes to the turning of the corner, it’s a little harder. It takes a little higher level of skill to be able to turn the corner with those stones.

And I was seeing in the Spirit that God is calling someone to that place of turning the corner. It’s a change of seasons. And I saw just now, even, that it will bring a greater level, a deeper level of sensitivity, carefulness, watchfulness for the Voice of the Lord. There will be a new…

I pray that prayer for myself many times. “Lord, make me more sensitive to Your voice.” Cause God doesn’t always speak in a megaphone, you know. And God doesn’t always speak with a “Thus saith the Lord,” attached to it.

In Pentecost, we used to have great prophets. And we knew they were prophesying because they would always attach, “Thus saith the Lord.” Well than we knew that was God speaking. But I found out in prophets and prophetesses, that they can be speaking to you at the dinner table, they can be speaking to you, sitting around the living room, and it can be God speaking with no, “Thus saith the Lord,” attached to it.

God can just be speaking out of them things that you need to hear. And so I want to be so sensitive that even if it doesn’t have, “Thus saith the Lord,” on it, that I know that it’s the voice of God. And I sense that someone has come to that place of the turning of the corner.

And there has been uncertainty. You’ve been walking with uncertainty before you, not knowing what the next steps would be. But I see that the Lord just wants to say, “It’s time to turn the corner with Me. It’s time to turn the corner. I’m not going to take you out of this place. I’m not going to take you out of this furnace.”

But the Lord is saying, “I’m going to make Myself even more real to you in the fire.” And the greatest thing that’s going to be accomplished in your life is all the bondages, all the things that restrain you and hold you back are going to be burned and lost in the fire.

And when you do come out of this trial, when you do come out of this valley, you’re going to come forth with a new song, and a new purpose. Hallelujah. And a new determination to be what God would have you to be.

Overcoming Power of the Eagle

November 23, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Prophetic Word given by Brother Shelley | Jerusalem, Israel

I was getting that same word in my spirit. I hadn’t thought about it in the meantime. As Sis. Nancy was talking about hearing that word, “overcomer,” and I was hearing that just now as I was singing. Because that’s what the eagle symbolizes, the overcoming power that the Lord gives us to soar about our problems and our circumstances.

God doesn’t want you in the valley, He wants you in the heights. Sometime the wind brings us low, but we have to fight to get back to where God wants us to be. And I could see the Lord in my spirit, I could see those feathers. This morning, in this little house, in this underground church we call it, I can see the Lord just wanting to move those feathers and draw us all, all of us. I confess that I’m not as close to His bosom as I desire to be. And I know you feel the same way. I saw the Lord just desiring to want to draw us closer.

Gears Shifting

December 07, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I want to give you a prophetic word.I was standing there as we were singing familiar songs. And for just a split moment or two, more than a second, I had a quick vision and I saw the gear shift in the floor, not on the steering wheel.

But I saw a gear shift in the floor.And I saw this large button on the handle.And I saw a hand take that handle, (you know what I’m talking about?) and depress that button.The hand pressed or depressed that buttonand I could see that it was about to move.

And the Spirit of the Lord spoke to me and said, “I am about…” (And I just referred to it a moment ago.)“I am about to raise the level of your faith.” And I saw it like shifting gears.You know you can go along in the same gear for a long timeand get where you’re going.But you come to some places in life where you need to shift down to a lower gear, because you need a little bit more pull.

Hallelujah. Thank You for that anointing. Hallelujah. Praise God.

Oh, You’re the God who keeps His promises.

You are the God, who keeps His promises.

Oh, I leave here in faith believing.

Tonight_ , _ I leave here in faith believing.

Come, work Your miracle in me.

Identified & Quarantined

December 14, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

I saw it. Kind of as he was preaching, my mind was moving fast. And I went for many years operating a computer. I don’t know anything about them. But I went for many years. I’ve had all kinds of computers. I couldn’t tell you how many I’ve owned.

I went for many years accessing the Internet and e-mail, and never got a virus. I began to think people are just kind of crazy, all the time talking about viruses. And then all of a sudden, I started getting them. And every time I go to Jerusalem, I get another one. And it’s amazing. I’m not smart enough to tell you how they work. But all I know is, people sure do have too much time on their hands to sit around and figure out how to get on my computer, and mess it up.

And you can download… The last virus that we took on our computer was sent to us on a Microsoft, an e-mail that was supposedly Microsoft. The logo and everything was official. And even the Microsoft webpage link, and everything on it. And it was sent as a warning. This is how dumb I am. It was sent as a warning to update Microsoft on your computer, to keep you from catching a virus.

And it was so slick, that I clicked on it. I didn’t want any virus. I thought I was downloading a fix, but instead I downloading the virus. And it got in my computer, and it started sending things out of my computer all over the world. And in about two hours, I had over a thousand returned e-mails in my inbox. And it happened for days, even after I fixed it. I was still getting them for days, they had been floating out in space, and had come bombarding back in. And I put that virus scan on that computer. Benjamin always me get out of trouble. Put that virus scan. And it’s amazing how that thing works.

I saw that tonight, kind of, in the Spirit, when Brother Steve Currie was preaching. You download it. You get it all set up. And you press the button. And you can see the names of your files, all the files on your computer, the names of them start flashing by, just like that. “Tu, tu, tu, tu…”

What that thing does is, it is able to identify any virus, and file that has been affected, infected. And not only that, it would at the end of that thing, it will give you a report. And that report will tell you how many files were infected; how many files were deleted. And it will even tell you where there are weaknesses on your computer, where you can get a virus the next time. And it says they have been… What’s the word it uses? Isolated or quarantined. Quarantined. Identified and quarantined.

And I was seeing in my mind’s eye that scan tonight, going on in my own life, as the files of my life were flashing by. And God was searching.

And I want us to pray that prayer. I am moved by that. If he hadn’t said anything else, I’m moved by that that God would help us, by the Holy Ghost, to identify those weak files.

You know them. I mean, it’s not like we have to dig real deep to find them. But we want God to help us identify all of them, and have them quarantined, so there’ll not be a weakness of a jeopardy in our life, that the devil can’t keep using those same things over and over again.

Operating in a Deeper Realm of the Prophetic

December 23, 2003 (Tuesday Evening)

Dream given to Brother Billy Tebo

I’m not an interpreter, but I’ll just tell you the dream and what I feel like the Lord spoke to me.

I didn’t see Brother Shelley in the dream. But me, along with several brothers. Some I recognized, and some I did not recognize, were on, I would say it was a mission. We were sent forth to do something.

And we were given very explicit instructions on what we were… Actually, we were collecting shells on what looked to be a desert or a seashore. And we were collecting a certain type of a shell.

And we were given, I know in my spirit in this dream, that we were given very explicit instructions of where we could look for these shells, and where we were not to look for these shells. And I don’t really know what the shells looked like. I can’t describe those to you.

But we were busy on this island, or on this place, looking for those shells. And the instruction was, very explicitly, for us not for us to look behind certain big rocks. And apparently in this dream we were not finding the amount of shells that we were wanting to find. And I didn’t see the brother that did it. He started to move this rock that we were not supposed to move, that we were told we were not supposed to look there.

And a young brother spoke up and said, “Brother Shelley told us not move those.” And this older set of hands. Was, all I saw was the hands. I could tell they were older hands, decided to do it anyway. When they moved it, it opened up almost a cavern. And standing on the other side of this was a cobra, a snake, a viper. (I don’t think it was anything to do with what I read.) And it lurched, that lurched out of this cave to biting.

And the person that moved this stone was able to get out of the way. But the viper came out and bit four or five other people that were standing close. And I don’t know all the typology there, but God spoke to me and said that it’s very important that we listen and obey God’s instructions. It’s very important. God told me in this dream that God is getting ready to open Brother Shelley up to deeper realm of the prophetic. A deeper realm than we’ve ever seen him operate in.

And there are going to be things uncovered that we don’t want uncovered. But God spoke that he is getting ready to move into a realm of the prophetic that we have not seen. And it’s all in line with what God is doing, even on this campground, and moving into a certain area, and moving into a realm that God wants us in. And it’s all hinged on us walking in the vision that God has placed before us.

And God is getting ready to pour an anointing on Brother Shelley that we’ve not ever seen. We think we’ve seen him operate in the prophetic. But God just told me last night in the dream, that we have not even seen and scratched the surface yet, and that many are going to follow in the same footsteps that Brother Shelley has been placed as the head of this ministry, and the Pastor of this place, in the leader that we’re to follow, in that anointing. And God has warned me. And I believe it was a warning from God to us, that we’re to obey what God would speak through him, because God is getting ready to open up the heavens to him. Hallelujah. Hallelujah…

I don’t think by the response that we even can grasp yet what God is getting ready to do. But God is getting ready to open up the prophetic in a manner that we have never seen it. And I searched my heart and my soul, that I am found worthy to stand in the sight of God.

If we could just lift our hands. Again, I can’t tell you all of the meaning. I don’t believe that the older hands necessarily represented an older person, but someone that maybe felt they had more wisdom in certain situations is the way that I perceived it. But again, I’m not saying that is the interpretation. But I believe it was, to me, God was speaking to me that it would be someone that would possibly feel like they know more. And I believe that’s what the age hands were representing.

But as this would come to pass… And I believe with all my heart it was from God. I believe that was a message of warning maybe to me. But I believe that it was a warning to this ministry that we need to know where we’re standing with God, where we’re standing with this ministry. Because we’re going in a realm that we are not yet traveled in. And we’re going to have to have our spirits, and we’re going to have to have our attitudes right in line with God’s Word.

When little things like viperous serpents would come to us, we’re going to have to be able to shake them off. Because God has got a work for us to do. And if this is true, I believe that every dart that the enemy would have, would turn towards our Pastor. And we’re going to have to be able to stand and thwart off the attacks of the enemy, and stand in the gap. Hallelujah. If we could just raise our voice and pray.

Father, I believe with all my heart that You spoke, oh God. Lord, I pray, Jesus, that You would just shield my heart, shield my spirit, Lord. Father, that I would be in a position to do what You would want me to do, Lord. But Father, I pray a hedge of protection around my Pastor, around this campground, around this work, around this church.

Satan, we curse you right now in the Name of Jesus Christ. We command you to flee, and return to the pits of hell from where you came. But, oh God, I pray that You would fortify us, oh God. Fortify us with each other. (Tongues)

Oh God, no matter who we see come and go. Lord, I pray, oh God, that You would give us each a determination that we’re going to stand. We’re going to stand. We’re going to stand, no matter what would come. No matter what would go, we’re going to stand firm on Your Word. Hallelujah.

Oh God, we thank You, Jesus. Hallelujah. (Tongues) Oh Jesus, we thank You, oh God. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus. I think we should pray, people. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Thank You, Jesus. Hallelujah. Father, we thank You, Lord. Hallelujah.

You know, it once was a way in this church, when you saw something was serious enough to put the Pastor on his knees, that the congregation would follow. We’re going to have to have that leadership. Hallelujah.

Brother Greeley:

(Tongues): Quote from the last Vision (July 18, 1998)

Very soon, the anointing in my ministry will change, He said. When it does, next time I will stand very close to the Throne to receive words and Revelations for the Lamb’s Wife. This time, I should be content for a quick glimpse of the celebration that goes on constantly before the Throne, even now. I cannot yet see it, but I hear it. To think that one day we will stand together close to His Throne, in this heavenly celebration!

He said, “There will come services here, when no man or woman will be standing. We will all rest in His Glory, for the work will be hard and long and we will cherish the opportunity to rest in His Glory.” He said, “It’s better than twelve hours of sleep, two seconds resting in the Glory of the Lord.”

Overhearing a Conversation in the Heavenlies

December 28, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

Sunday night I knew that we needed to pray for Angela. And so my wife again felt the same way. She reminded me, and we prayed for them. And the Presence of the Lord came down in a wonderful way.

But as I was coming to the end of the prayer, I had a very unusual and supernatural experience that I wanted to speak about. But I felt, afterward, paralyzed. And I felt unable to speak about it.

And so that you’ll know that I’m not making it up as I go, Brother Kary can be a slight witness to it, because we discussed it together on the telephone. That must have been Monday. Was it Monday evening? We discussed it briefly.

As I was praying for them, I felt my feet begin to lift up off the ground, at the end of the prayer. Coming to the end of the prayer, I felt the anointing of the Lord move all over me. And I felt my feet beginning to lift off the ground. And I looked down and could see they were firmly planted on the step.

And then again I could feel that drawing. And I’ve felt the drawing of the Lord for many years. It started when I was very young. And that’s how God baptized me with the Holy Ghost. I don’t have to bore you with my testimony, but most of you’ve already heard that when I was seven years old. I was praying for the Holy Ghost, and He lifted me just out of my body. And I looked down and saw myself kneeling there. And God filled me with the Holy Ghost.

So I know that drawing of the Spirit of God. Some people would call it mysticism, and some people might go so far as to call it witchcraft. And I have to be honest to say that I have no explanation for it. And that confirms it to my heart, because I heard a prophet of God say that if it’s supernatural, it can’t be explained. And we make a real mistake sometime, trying to explain.

Even as he made a mistake one time, trying to explain the supernatural. Let’s just leave it for what it is. It is not natural. It is supernatural. It is beyond this world. It is beyond this realm. It is beyond this dimension. And it is the thing that makes God, God. It’s the thing that makes God higher than man, His ways above us.

This experience that I had here Sunday night, I’ve mentioned it to no one except to Brother Kary. I just could feel myself being pulled a little higher, and a little higher. And finally, as I stood there physically with my eyes closed, I was aware of the fact that the Holy Ghost had lifted me above the tabernacle. And I was looking down on myself, standing right there. And I saw Angela and Brother Kary standing. And those who were standing around, I saw them standing there.

I wondered, and kind of chuckled in my spirit. I kind of went like this: “Ha, what am I doing here?” Now I just tell you that, not that you’ll lose respect for what happened, but so that you’ll know how human we are, and how easy it is for us all to make human mistakes.

And I just remember thinking, “Ha, what am I doing here?” Because I wasn’t hearing anything, or seeing anything heavenly. But somehow in my spirit, God had lifted me above, and I was looking down.

And all of the sudden I began to hear a conversation that was going on a little bit higher than where I was, in the Spirit. Somewhere up there in the Spirit realm, there was a conversation going on a little bit higher than me. I could tell it was coming from a higher direction.

And it was two voices. And these two voices were speaking to one another. And it was… To not say more than I want to say, but to say enough, a plan had been formulated, and a commission was being given for this plan to be carried out. (And as nervous as I am right now, I’ll just say what’s in my heart and worry about it later.)

I believe that it was the Voice of God. And I believe that what I heard was God speaking to at least an angelic being, a Messenger of heaven. Because I heard Him telling this other voice what had to happen, and what needed to be done. And one thing He particularly said was, “There is no room for mistake. There is no room for a margin of error.” He said, “It must be carried out precisely as I have instructed You.”

I felt like I was hearing a conversation that was none of my business. And I thought, “Why in the world would the Spirit of God be dealing with me in such a way, that I’m hearing a conversation that’s not for my ears?” You know what I mean? And all of the sudden, I had no more than thought that about, feeling a little uncomfortable, being a little nosey and hearing this conversation, as this Voice would respond back…

I appreciated the way that this Messenger responded back to the One giving the commission. Because with great boldness He answered that there should not be any concern, because He understood the mission precisely. And He said, “I have every intention of carrying it out exactly as You have commissioned Me.”

And then the Voice said to this Messenger… The Voice of God is how I perceive it. He said, “Wait patiently for the signal. And when I give You the signal, You’ll know that now is the time.”

The Voice answered back and said very humble, in a very humble way… And this is what impressed me, this Angel Messenger, whatever He was, answered back with the word, “Sir.” In a very humble way He said, “Sir, would it be wrong for Me to ask how long before the signal should come?”

And the Voice of God answered and said, “No, it is allowed.” And there was pause. And I thought, “Oh no.” You know, have you been carrying on those cell phone conversations in the middle of something serious, and it’s dead? I thought, “Have I lost my connection?” And all of the sudden the Voice said, “Very, very soon.” And this Angel Messenger answered back, “Yes Sir.”

And then I heard another line. He said, “As the old year is leaving, and the new year is beginning, during that season, I’ll give You the signal.” I’m feeling so strange in hearing this, because to this point I don’t know what the commission is. I don’t know what the mission is. I’m not sure what is going to be accomplished.

When all of the sudden, as though God… (And I’m sure… God knows all.) As though God, this Voice… (I feel so strange, saying it that way.) As though my thoughts were being spoken rather loud in God’s ears… I’m thinking, “I’m a little embarrassed about hearing all of this conversation.” And all of the sudden the Voice turned and was directed right at me.

And the first phrase that I heard the Voice of God speak to me was something like this: “You have wondered why I have allowed you to hear these things.” And I just answered in the Spirit, “Yes, Lord.”

And He began to give me in the Spirit some beautiful details that I have to hold on to this morning. But I know there’ll be a time that I can share them openly concerning a real change in the spiritual season.

God’s already been warning us. And not just warning us, but baiting us. Is that okay to say? God’s been baiting us. He’s been giving us little things, little words, little nuggets, little hopes, little promises.

I called Brother Billy Monday evening. Wasn’t it? I asked him to preach Tuesday night. He came here Tuesday night and preached and shared a dream, and ministered to me in such a wonderful way.

He said, “God is getting ready to pour an anointing on Brother Shelley, that we’ve never seen. We think we’ve seen him operate in the prophetic. But God just told me last night in a dream, we’ve only scratched the surface.” Again, great confirmation to what I had heard in this conversation.

Sister, she typed that up, and then she added to that a paragraph that came, July 18th, 1998, just as the last real major vision the Lord gave me was ending. I was telling it. And here ’s what the last paragraph was: “Very soon the anointing in my ministry will change.” He said, “When it does, next time I’ll stand very close to the throne and receive words and revelation for the Lamb’s Wife.” And on and on. I won’t read all that now.

“There will come services here, when no man or woman will be standing. We’ll all rest in His glory, for the work will be hard and long.” (When I read that, I wondered if the work was spiritual work, or building a church.) “For the work will be hard and long. And we will cherish the opportunity to rest in His Glory.”

He said, “It’s better than twelve hours of sleep, two seconds resting in the Glory of the Lord is better than twelve hours of sleep.” How many of you believe that? Just one touch of the anointing of God.

Behold I Set Before You an Open Door

December 28, 2003 (Sunday Morning)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

To close this, I want to tell you what happened Tuesday night, after Brother Billy had finished. He was worshiping, and the service was coming to a close. And he was speaking in tongues. And there was a great witness. And he had prayed for me.

And I had a vision, a very powerful strong vision, although it was very simple. I knew that it was very, very serious. I saw what looked like a beautiful door. But it was… (I’ve seen visions of doors before. This was not like any other door.) It was more a cross, a combination between a door and a gate.

It was swinging this way, in and out. In and out. And as it came to the frame, it would pause a moment like this. I’ll try to show you what I mean. It would come like this and pause a moment. Then it would go all the way in. Then it would come this way, pause a moment at the frame, and go all the way out. And it would go in.

So it wasn’t making a complete sweep like this. Do you understand what I’m saying? Most of these doors just go in. But at the church in Columbus we had a swinging door that would go all the way in, and all the way out. You see what I’m saying? But every time it came to the frame it would pause and then do that. And then go like that and pause.

I knew that God was, there was something very powerful beyond the door. I knew there was something very serious about it. And I’ve heard, I heard a word. And I’ve had a terrible time, because I didn’t, I don’t really understand the word. But I heard a word, that I saw a hand come in with a narrow looking pin, like a metal. Not an ink pen, but like a metal pin, almost like the pin that goes down in the hinge, a hinge pin.

But it wasn’t quite like that because it had another little thing on it, that almost looked like a spring, a little metal wire or attachment or something, that was hooked onto this pin. A little different attachment on it. You know what cinch means. It’s like the belt on the saddle of the horse. You cinch, you tighten it up, you know. And so I know what the word means. But I’d never heard it like that. Cinch pin.

And all of the sudden, when that thing was applied, the door no longer swung out. It only swung in. It wouldn’t swing out anymore. It wouldn’t go out at all. It would only go in. I felt like it was speaking about access. And as I prayed about it, especially a few nights during the week as I prayed about it, I could hear this Scripture: “Behold, I set before you an open door. When I… (I’m just going to paraphrase.) When I open that door, no man can shut it. And when I shut that door, no man can open it.”

And then there was something about things flowing out, like losing things. I was getting something like losing things, because there was such an open access. But here’s what I want you to think about this morning. There was a people chosen in the mind of Jesus before the foundation of the world, that would not make the fatal mistake that Laodicea made. But she would hear, hallelujah.

I just want to tell the Lord, and I want to tell the devil all at the same time, that what Laodicea rejected and refused, God’s had a Bride, a people, that He’s calling together, and placing in her position, that will not make the mistake of Laodicea.

We hear the knocking on the door and the cooing of the dove. And it’s up to us to open up the door and let Him come in. And I believe that’s what God was showing me. The door is not swinging any more. It’s opening to the inside. And God is giving you access.

And I thought about the Seven Arches Hotel in Jerusalem, on the Mount of Olives. We don’t get a lot of steak in Jerusalem, because there is no Longhorn. But there is one place that we know of, that we can have a very special tasty steak. And that’s up on the Mount of Olives, looking down over the old city of Jerusalem, right down over the Eastern Gate almost.

I’ve been in a lot of swinging doors. But for some reason, this door came to my mind. I’ve walked in all kinds, automatics and all. But for some reason I could see that door turning there at the Seven Arches Hotel. You know what I’m talking about? Revolving doors like they used to have at all the hospitals.

And you have to wait, you know. We used to play and keep going around, and not coming out. You know, you get them… You have to wait for just the right time to get in, cause there is a partition coming around. You don’t want it to crack you in the head. And then you walk around in it until the opening. And when the opening comes, you walk out.

And for some reason I could see that in my mind’s eye. Because this door was swinging in and swinging out. It wasn’t saying that there was no access. There’s been access all along. Great visitations we’ve had. God wasn’t saying…

But this pause was as though we were having to wait for just the right hour, just the right time to have some communication with that which God had for us on the other side. Because that pause seemed to indicate that there had to be the right hour and the right season.

But God was just coming and putting a cinch pin in that door. And that door was in some way propped open. And if it came back, it would only come far enough, it wouldn’t swing out. All you’d have to do would be push it, and it would open.

I believe God was saying, there is coming a… The same thing Brother Billy said: “We’ve only scratched the surface prophetically, of what God wants to do.” I want the same power of God to operate among us and through this community, as God calls out.

The last thing, I’ll just tell you, the last thing that the Lord spoke to me in that experience Sunday night is, He said, “I’ll place the key in your hand.” I don’t know exactly whatever, I don’t know what all is contained in that program, that plan that was formulated in the mind of God.

But I’ll close this morning by telling you that those papers, those orders have already been handed to the Messenger. They’ve already been handed to the Angelic Being, the Host of God that’s going to carry out the plan of God. And all He’s waiting for now is the signal. And when He asked, “How soon?” The Lord said, “Very, very soon. The going out of the old year, and the coming in of the new year.”

I don’t know how it will be. But all I know is that great things… I tell you in the Name of the Lord, great things are ahead for those that can believe. If you can only believe, if you can only reach up your faith and believe. Hallelujah.

I see not only miracles of healing in your body. But I see God doing things spiritually in your lives, drawing you closer to Him. I see God nudging people out of their nest, their comfort zone of lackadaisicalness, so to speak, just hanging around, straddling the fence.

I see God desiring to stir you to the call, to the place of action. I see God desiring to move out from among us any spirit that would hinder us from embracing and receiving that that’s God’s promised through the Message and through His Word.

Help us, oh God, to prepare ourselves. Help us right now to open up our hearts. Whatever it is that the Angel of the Lord is about to carry out, we’re partakers of it. We’re partakers of it. You’ve caught us up into it. Let it be the deliverance of our loved ones. Let it be the calling back of every backslider. Let it bring those great outstanding miracles of healing. Let the blind see, oh God, the deaf hear. Not only spiritually, but physically, let there be restoration. (Tongues)

Lord, let this revelation fall on us like a blanket this morning. Let us all be changed. Even the thing we can’t understand. Maybe we can’t explain it, but let us be ready recipients of it. Let there be something, when the Angel of the Lord passes, let there be some faith in us that shows Him, Lord, we’re ready.

Siftings Bringing the Glory of God into Our Lives

December 31, 2003 (Sunday Evening)

Vision given to Brother Shelley

(Tongues) I saw earlier in the service, when we were worshiping the Lord, I saw an old-fashioned sifter like my granny used to use to sift. I’ve told about it before. She used to keep the flour in a big bin, almost like a trash can, with handles that locked down. And she kept her biscuit bowl in that big container, so she could just pull it out, on top of the flour. And she had an old-fashioned aluminum sift, she poured the flour into and turned the handle. Do you know what I’m talking about?

And the metal pieces would move around, and get all the lumps. Because sometimes a little bit of the dough would stay in the bowl. I guess if people did it that way today, they’d die with salmonella, or all kinds of ferocious diseases. But it just worked in that day. And she’d get all of that out, and she’d make the finest biscuit. (Oh my. Let’s not talk about it.)

But I saw that, it looked like rough kernels of wheat. Big kernels, long, about like that. Rough. (Sister Laurel came from the farm in Saskatchewan, and she knows about the wheat.)

I saw very crude looking. And I thought, this is so strange because this contraption is not designed to crush the kernels of wheat. This is to sift out the flour. But I saw these rough kernels being poured in. And I saw the handle beginning to turn, in the Spirit. And I knew, of course, it was the siftings and shiftings of the Spirit of God in 2003.

And it was turning, and turning, and turning, and nothing was coming out. Turning, and turning, and turning. I felt a chuckle, like I do sometimes in the Spirit, because the handle’s turning, and you can hear it crunching, but nothing is coming out. And all of a sudden the finest, so very, very fine. There’s a fine dust in this building because of the sawdust, that you can’t always see with the natural eye.

But when you, if you’ll notice when someone takes a photograph, the flash hits that dust, and it lights up. And you can see the dust. You don’t see it. But this was like gold dust. (And, you know, we’re not emphasizing gold dust.) But this was like gold dust that was coming out of this sifter. Hard kernels of wheat were going in, but the finest gold dust was coming out.

And I thought to myself, “Lord, what are You saying? What is this?” And I knew it represented the siftings and shiftings of 2003. And God was taking those old hard seed and making something more valuable than flour. Flour, that would be good enough, because I can think about biscuit and gravy. But there’s something finer than that that was coming out of that sifter. It was like pure gold dust coming out. And I remembered God’s Word, that we would be tried in the furnace of affliction, and come forth like gold.

There is a value coming out of your life in 2004. God is going to get glory out of little old you. And I say that, I don’t like to give general words so general, but I feel like it is most specific to whoever will claim it in the Name of the Lord, that God is going to get value and glory out of your life in 2004.

All of the siftings and shiftings of this year will bring the glory of God into your life, and through you, out of you, filtering out of you in this coming year. And you’re going to look back and say it was worth it. Every test, every trial, every heartache. Hallelujah.
