A Now Word!

October 10-12, 2008:

This past weekend, a work of the Lord came over me unexpectedly! The Holy Spirit held my undivided attention all weekend long. Beginning Friday evening with a 'word' from His Word, Saturday morning a message which tied to the 'word' the evening before, and at the same time, a song that burst forth from my spirit man! All addressing the world as we are looking at it today, as of last weeks' major economic development. I was amazed at what the Lord spoke to me.

I sent out a letter this morning, to all friends, family and associates - asking for prayer - that I might be able to record the message, as well as, the song, and have it to somehow make available for your hearing. This is a very strong message, and as messages go with the Lord and myself, I have complete confidence that what He spoke - will indeed come to pass shortly.

My prayer:

Lord, hasten the open doors for this word!


Thank you for your prayers!

Hope You're Checking? We appreciate those of you who will 'hook up' with our prophetic targets (as revealed by the Holy Spirit) for intercession.


CBN News - October 6, 2008 - A story headline: The Mideast: More Complex, More Dangerous by Chris Mitchell - speaking of Russia "flexing her muscles in arms sales to Israel's enemies, Syria and Iran" - is direct fulfillment of a prophetic vision I posted here on this site on June 8, 2006. The vision itself, I received on June 6, 2008. (Go back and read the exact wording and then compare with the news report's wording: Google CBN News for report dated 10/06/08.)

I am seriously seeking intercessors to hear and pray over the words that I receive from Him. I know that they are authentic, thus, the need to rally prayers to pray!

If you're led, please contact me. In the meantime, please pass this site address on to those you may know, who are intercessors. Ask them to keep watch over the site and to stay abreast with the Head's Up posted here, from the Lord.

Blessings!

What now?

I've been brooding over a 'word' that the Lord gave me, going on three weeks ago, now. It was just as I was preparing myself for the day - I heard the Holy Spirit say, 'Build an altar! Celebrate!'

I believe it was a mandate, to change our position in life, now!

We should already be living, daily, the CELEBRATORY life that Jesus came and purchased for us - on the CROSS. What a price He paid. What a sacrifice He made. What a sadness to Him if we don't receive what He paid for us to have with His very being. Oh, what a divine purchase was made for anyone who wills! What a day, that day, where Jesus gave it all away and took it all back - regained it all - for the takers!

Takers / Harvesters

John 4 - Jesus meets the woman at the well. He gives her that water from the well that shall never run dry, that living water, heavenly substance. Jesus, the living fountain. Dayspring!

Immediately following, the woman brings an entire company of those whom she'd run to and given witness to.

The disciples grow weary with the constant barrage of people swarming Him, pressing upon Him, continually keeping, detaining Him. There was a massive pull, always, upon Jesus. He could go nowhere to find solace. He and His disciples were forced to search out places of harbor - slipping secretly, seeking getaway hiding places for the resting of their bodies.

In this particular instance, Jesus was being pressed upon, once again. The disciples began begging Him to take a break and to find food for themselves....

John 4: 28-32 - The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men, Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did; is not this the Christ? Then they went out of the city, and came unto him. In the mean while his disciples prayed him, saying, Master, eat. But he said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of.

Oh, there it is: THE MEAT THAT WE KNOW NOT OF!

See what the Master says next:

John 4: 34-38 - say not ye, there are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest. and he that reapeth receiveth wages and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together. And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth. I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour; other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.

All through my years, I've heard it taught that the harvest spoken of here, by Jesus, was that of souls of men. And it was. But Jesus, was constantly giving something out - people were always reaping of the things that He was giving - or - sowing. The prophets spoke of Jesus (men laboured before the disciples); they sowed the knowledge and foresight of His coming advent! But now...NOW...THE FRUIT WAS AMONGST THEM - THE HARVEST WAS PRESENT!

JESUS' MEAT, WAS TO FIND ONES WHO WOULD REACH OUT AND REAP OF THAT HARVEST, THE WORD MANIFESTED, JESUS HIMSELF AND WHAT HE CAME TO GIVE. THAT WHICH MAN DID NOT SOW TOWARDS, RATHER, THE FATHER WILLINGLY AND FREELY GAVE - HIS SON - COME IN THE FLESH - TO REDEEM BACK UNTO THE ORIGINAL HARVEST THAT GOD HAD GIVEN UNTO ADAM.

Jesus was the seed sown, for the harvest unto all mankind, to freely partake of.


His meat was to find the reapers, lest the harvest be wasted!

The Promise of Harvest

2 Peter 1: 3,4 - According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue; whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises; that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust...

Is that not cause to CELEBRATE?

Oh, all those years ago, when the Glory of God, opened the eyes of my understanding and brought that anointed enlightenment over His Word! I recall vividly, the very moment and place where I read this verse in scripture:

Romans 6: 3,4 - Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death; that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father; even so we also should walk in newness of life! For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death; we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection. Know this, that our old man is crucified with him that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin.

2 Corinthians 5: 17 - Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature; old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new.

Oh, that man would seek God for the blinders to be removed from their eyes; the scales!


Acts 9: 17,18 - And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother, Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales; and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

Hebrews 2: 3,4 - How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles; and gifts of the Ghost Ghost, according to his own will?

2 Corinthians 4: 3,4 - But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost; in whom the god of this world hath binded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

My friends, I pray for you today, that above all else...


Galatians 4: 19 - My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you...

Colossians 1: 9-12 - For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that ye might walk worthy of the Lord, unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; strengthened with all might according to his glorious power, unto all patience and long suffering, with joyfulness; giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakes of the inheritance of the saints in light; who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son; in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins.

Oh my, my! That all men might receive the harvest of His Seed Sown!

CELEBRATE SALVATION - TODAY! BUILD AN ALTAR AND WORSHIP THE LORD WITH SINGING, DANCING, PRAISE AND CELEBRATION!

IN THE MIDST OF TROUBLED TIMES - WE CAN CONTINUE TO COMMUNE IN THAT PLACE SET APART AND ORDAINED FOR ANY AND ALL WHO WILL COME; AT THE BECKONING AND THE SACRIFICE OF JESUS CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD, SPOTLESS LAMB WHO TAKETH AWAY THE SINS OF THE WORLD! THIS IS HIS BLOOD, HIS FLESH, GIVEN FOR YOU! PARTAKE TODAY!

Psalm 116: 12, 13 - What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits toward me? I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the Lord.

Why do I prophesy?


As a means of explanation, I would like to share an excerpt from my book:
Manifesto - Before The Cock Crows. I believe that this illustration, will suffice (as efficiently as any other thing I could present - including all of the scriptures which I could make mention of [which I will do at a later time]) as evidence of, just cause, for presenting what one hears by the Holy Spirit and then speaks forth - or prophesies.

Excerpt: (This is only one prophecy, of many, from my years of walking in the Holy Spirit. Many more have been documented in the book, for the benefit of its' readers. This is one that should 'get your attention'. You do remember 9/11/01? Then read this.)

AUG 1, 2001

Manifesto/Chapter Three Renken – 163

WORD: I received these two words from the Holy Spirit that night, and didn’t even realize what was being said until now (hindsight). This was one month before 9/11/01 and we didn’t realize it until this Oct. 2004 date. (Recorded live - on tape.)

• Delirium: A more or less temporary disorder of the mental faculties, as in fevers, insanity, and intoxication, characterized by restlessness, excitement, delusions, hallucinations, etc.; fig., a state of violent excitement or emotion; mad rapture or enthusiasm; also, a wild fancy.

• Pandemonium: Milton’s name for the capital of hell. The abode of all demons and the capital of hell. The high capital of Satan and his peers; hence, hell, or the infernal regions; disorder or lawless confusion; any place of wild uproar or bewildering noise; also, wild lawlessness or uproar.

AUG 5, 2001

VISION: My husband opened the door to our home in the middle of the night (leading of the Lord). The Lord gave him a vision of a great blackness coming to the earth. It was a horrid sight! The Lord spoke to him at that time and told him that we need to be preparing ourselves, to judge ourselves NOW, that we be not judged in days to come! (Message on tape - live – available)

AUG 9, 2001

PROPHETIC WORD: Where are the ‘flocks flocking’? The Lord spoke: “CHRISTIANS, DON’T WORRY IF THE CROWDS AREN’T BUYING AT YOUR TABLE AT THE MARKET RIGHT NOW! ALL OTHER TABLES ARE MORE ATTRACTIVE. THEY DON’T WANT YOUR GOSPEL RIGHT NOW. BUT REMAIN AT YOUR TABLE! DON’T ABANDON IT! STAY WITH IT BECAUSE IN DAYS TO COME, THEY WILL HAVE REASON TO TURN AND DESIRE YOUR TABLE AND YOUR GOSPEL AND THEY WILL COME RUNNING TO YOU. SO STAY PUT!” (You do recall how one month later [9/11/01], many began to flock to the church!) (Live recording.)

Manifesto/Chapter Three Renken – 164

This is nothing short of AMAZING:

Sept 2, 2001

(This word came to me as I was ironing my attire that I would preach in, one hour later. As the word came, it came with such intensity of power, I got down on my knees to hear it:)

PROPHETIC WORD: “GO TO CHURCH THIS MORNING AND HAVE ALL THE PEOPLE REMOVE THEIR WATCHES AND TOSS THEM INTO THE OFFERING PLATES. REMOVE THE CLOCKS FROM THE WALLS. WAIT AWHILE AND THEN ASK THE PEOPLE TO TELL YOU WHAT TIME IT IS. THEY WON’T BE ABLE TO WITHOUT THEIR WATCHES. SO IT IS IN THE REALM OF THE SPIRIT. YOU WILL NOT KNOW WHAT IS COMING WITHOUT THE WATCH OF MY HOLY SPIRIT. AS YOU CANNOT TELL THE TIME WITHOUT THE WATCH, YOU CANNOT KNOW THINGS THAT ARE COMING WITHOUT MY HOLY SPIRIT. THERE ARE THINGS COMING THAT YOU KNOW NOT OF! THE CHURCH MUST GET ‘HOOKED UP’ WITH MY SPIRIT FOR INFORMATION! YOU WILL GET YOUR PEOPLE DOWN IN THE FLOOR TODAY AND YOU WILL SEEK ME CONCERNING THIS MATTER AND CONCERNING SOMETHING THAT IS COMING, THAT YOU KNOW NOT OF!” (The message that day was ‘where is the prophetic voice in the earth today – in the Church of Jesus Christ!) (Available on tape – live recording.)

PROPHETIC SONG: Sung two nights after 9/11/01, nine days after the removal of our watches. The people in our body were seeking guidance as to how to pray, how to feel, what to believe. Then the song came out of my mouth without any warning to me beforehand. (Available on tape – live service!)

SONG:

HOLY IS THE HOUR - HOLY IS THE DAY
HOLY IS THE HOUR, HOLY IS THE DAY
HOLY IS THE LORD OUR GOD
HOLY IS HIS WAY
HOLY IS THE WORSHIP
THAT I BRING TO YOU
HOLY IS THE VISION
THAT I HAVE OF YOU

WORD: He was telling us that this is a ‘SPECIAL TIME’! This is a time of awareness! It was a wake up call! It was a warning to ‘LOOK UP’ and do some self-examination; a time to seek God as to what is happening, in the earth today! We must cling to our worship of Him, continue to uphold and walk in His ways, and above all – keep our vision upon Him, it will be a HOLY thing unto you, unto Him and to those all around you, in days to come! (Available on tape. This message was the interpretation of the song sung: Holy Is the Hour!)


Do you see now, why I prophesy? Prophesying is not an easy task! It is done with much humility and with fear and trembling, before the Lord, as all prophecy will be judged by - The Judge! Prophecy must be proven, therefore he who prophesies must also be proven.

Prophecy is a loving gift from the Heavenly Father, whose only desire is to - SAVE!

He Is Speaking...

I was taken back just a little bit on Monday morning (Aug. 11, 2008) when I heard the latest news - current world affairs, regarding the situation with Russia and Georgia! My son will attest to the fact that back in 2000, the Lord awakened me and said, "Maya the fine'." Then I heard a number amount for a population, as well as the word, Georgia. My son and I immediately began our search. We came up only, with our state of Georgia and the Georgia - now in the news. Our study led us to believe that the Lord was saying, even as the Maya became extinct, so would this Georgia. Is that what's happening now?

Yet another tidbit of information, applicable to this present situation: In the fall of 2004, my desk at which I was held hostage to at that time for the writing of the book: Manifesto - Before the Cock Crows, became mobile (in my parent's vehicle) as we traveled to Phoenix, AZ for a wedding. Driving through some very woody, hilly terrain, I had a vision of a very large bear's foot. I questioned the Lord, at that time. It seemed that there was a warning: Beware of the Bear! I immediately thought natural bear, given the fact that we were in heavily wooded and mountainous regions. Later, it dawned on me that Russia is known as the bear, also.

So, Lord, we lift up these people, of this Democratic region, who are fighting for their very survival today! Jesus, we pray that You send angels to that place, both spiritual and physical - spiritual help, as well as help in the natural. We pray against that spirit that desires to eliminate that democracy in that area. God, we know how that spirit has an insatiable appetite to destroy liberty and to exercise it's demonstrative slavery upon any and all. Redeem them, Lord. Pull Georgia out of the mouth of the bear! Loose them from that stronghold that is trying to annihilate this people! Father we call forth mercy and strength for battle and for a way of escape for them. Send forth aid! Lord, we pray for the United States of America and for President Bush, as he stands for the people's right to freedom - against Russia! Give wisdom, discernment and a right plan of action. Watch over, keep and protect those in office at this time. Keep America, Lord God. Bring about a favorable resolve to this situation that has already brought about such destruction - taken and claimed so many lives - for it's own agenda!

Father, we continue to pray for all nations in the earth, as You revealed to me on September 2, 2004, that You wanted Your church to "AWAKEN" for You were getting ready to "SIFT THE NATIONS BEFORE OUR VERY EYES"!

Keep us informed by the power and anointing and presence of your Most Holy Spirit, who speaks expressly the things of God, hidden mysteries - that we might be saved and spared from our enemies!

Thank You Father for your loving-kindness which causes us to hear your voice of warning and allows us opportunity to pray and bring about great deliverance.

Wake up Your people in the earth, Lord, to hear Your voice and to cooperate with You through intercession on behalf of those things revealed in the secret place with You!

Thank You for your careful watch over all Your Saints in the earth today. May they walk in the anointing that breaks every yoke and brings about a covering for their very lives, as they minister Your Words of Life and Light in a Dark and Dying World!

We pray for all those whose necks are on the line for the gospel of Jesus Christ, today! Fill their lives with Your promised songs of Deliverance, for every contrary and opposing situation.

In Jesus' Name! Amen

Prophetic Applications - Multiple

This morning (afternoon - time is flying) I want to share something that the Lord showed me last week. Many times when the Lord speaks to me, what He says, He eventually shows me, is to be applied to more than one particular area or situation. In other words the 'word' given, as He directs, can have multiple applications. For instance:

Last week I was seeking Him regarding a personal matter in my life, actually having to do with a state I seem to find myself in at this time. One day as I was praying before Him, I was led to place my head down on the desk. Immediately I had a vision. In this vision I saw the top right corner of my children's old swing set, from their childhood. In particular, the Lord seemed to be pointing out the silver bracing that held the triangular formation, which in turn held the swing set in place, acting as a support.

  • I'll have to get candid in order to share the first application of this word spoken (Personal):
    • I am presently finding myself feeling very alone in the things that the Lord has called me to do. I have no one, really, around me, to help me with all that I feel I need so much help with. So I was bringing that petition before Him, again. I'm alone and lacking support. (I felt.)

    • Moments later, as I resumed my activities, the Lord spoke to me and said, "Staves. Go now and find the meaning. (On line Bible/Hebrew & Greek).

Stave: beside, branches, alone, only, strength, apart, bars, each, except, beside him, like, themselves; alone, by itself, besides, a part, separation, being alone; separation, alone, by itself; only; apart from, besides; part; parts (limbs, shoots) bars.

Stave: for of the base of; tree, staff, wood, stocks. Wood, that which is made of wood; as a beam from which any one is suspended, a gibbet, a cross; a log or timber with holes in which the feet, hands, neck of prisoners were inserted and fastened with thongs; a fetter, or shackle for the feet; a cudgel, stick, staff; to smooth, by implication (of friction) to boil or heat; pot; a sextarius; a vessel or measuring liguid, holding about a pint; a wooden pitcher or ewer from which water or wine is poured, whether holding a sextarius or not.

Stave: tribe, rod, staff, staves, tribe; staff, branch, tribe; staff, rod, shaft; branch; tribe; company led by chief with staff (originally); stretch out; incline, turn, stretch forth, turn aside, bow, decline, pitched bow down, turn away, spread, stretched out still, pervert, stretch, to spread out; to turn, incline, influence, bend down, hold out, extend, thrust aside, thrust away, wrest, carried aside.

Do you see alone and support in these definitions? Pretty bold isn't it? Quite plain!
  • Second application (Again Personal):
    • I've been sensing the need for a 'staff' for such a long period of time, too. I guess that word is used several times in these definitions also. Yes?
Those things truly spoke directly to my situation and to my supplications before the Lord.
  • Third application (Israel):
    • A few days later, as I was just going through the day, I heard the Lord speak this, "Ginger, Israel is crying out this prayer also, at this time: "Are we alone? Who will support us? Who will stand beside us?"
    • You see the multiple applications here, correct? God is so GOOD!
  • Fourth application (People in the Earth):
    • There are many, in the earth, who are suffering from catastrophes. (Just last week, some of my very close relatives lost all possessions in the floods in Cedar Rapids, IA. They are feeling alone and very fearful about where their support will be coming from.)om now?)
  • Fifth application (The Nations):
    • The nations! Who are they looking to for their support? God? Man? Self reliance? Nations need to be supported by the Maker of all things. But do they desire Him? Or would they rather stand alone?

    • I was astonished a few days ago, while on a grocery run, as I looked at the package of shredded cheese that I'd purchased for $5.80 for four and a half years, which had risen in price over the past month to $7.69 and now had risen to $9.88! I was somewhat stunned! Standing there, thinking about those who are in devastated circumstances already, I feared that the day may come when people can't afford to eat at all. We're all effected. Just then, a gentleman approached the case and stood next to me, looking over the products. I said to him, "So, what do you think of the new price on this?" He looked and then shook his head, literally, to do a double take in disbelief. His comment back to me left me far more uncomfortable than the price of the cheese had: "Well, I just believe that when we finally find the wisdom to surrender ourselves to Socialism, like all of Europe, then we will be taken care of and only then." I couldn't believe that I was hearing an American speak these words to me! Of course, I shared truth with him.)

How completely deceived can we be? And yet the Lord showed me that's exactly what would be coming upon us, years ago (in the seventies - through a vision).


Where does your help/support come from today?
Where is your government's help/support coming from? Who do we all run to for wisdom?

What a timely word this was that the Lord gave! And oh, how we must be covering the earth with our sincerest prayers! There is an urgent call for around the clock intercession on behalf of those called out, seasoned intercessors, for the hour that we are in!

Thank you Lord, for speaking yet once more.

What do your prayers consist of these days?

Psalms 121: 1 - I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.

James 1: 5 - If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Proverbs 29: 2 - When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice; but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.


Now, follow all of this up with:

Vision (today - 4: 30 A.M.):

I saw an old apron. It was so old that the fabric was hardly able to mesh itself into one piece. The Holy Spirit drew my attention to the left side of the apron where the string was to have been attached. There was a safety pin instead, holding the string to the fraying edge of the apron.

Applications:


Whose apron strings have you been holding onto for far too long now - it's so old! But we continue to hold fast for safety purposes? Who is our security, again?

On the other hand, there are old things that we should remain attached to (izzyherrietteco.blogspot.com), always and forever. For some reason, we choose rather, not to. Then, our safety and security becomes tremendously compromised!

Attachments. Selah. (Pause and calmly think on that!)

Bless you today! And may you be supported (not be alone) by that triangle: Father, Son and Holy Spirit! He and He alone will be your safety. Stay attached to Him, no matter what comes.


P.S. Have a look at the dictionary definition of 'apron':


Apron: A garment worn to protect the clothing, or for ornament or with official dress; any shielding piece or part, as a screen of leather fastened before the occupants of an open carriage, a covering for an opening in a grain-separator, or a platform to receive the water falling over a dam; a deposit of gravel and sand extending forward from a moraine. To provide with or as with an apron.

See it?

Love When This Happens

In my last post, I shared that the Lord had directed me to prophesy that 'we need to be REJOICING, right now'.

I love it when this happens:

I went to lunch with my husband, just a few hours after I'd written that last post. We hadn't had a chance to speak to each other yet, that day. The first thing that came forth from his mouth, as we sat down in the restaurant, was, "Well, I heard the Lord speak to me this morning - we need to be REJOICING!" I just laughed. Isn't it awesome, the way that His Spirit works. As long as I walk with Him, I will never take those 'happenings' for granted! These are the works of God that come to destroy the works of Satan in our lives! I am so grateful, every day, for the working of God in my life. (I know that there are many people who don't walk this way and they have no understanding of this sort of life. Oh, how my heart aches, with an aching from the Holy Spirit, over those who do not 'know'.)

1 Corinthians 2: 14 - But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him; neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judgeth all things. yet he himself is judged of no man. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

1 John 3: 8 - ...For this purpose the Son of God was manifested; that he might destroy the works of the devil.

(I don't share anything, unless I absolutely know that it's something that the Lord is revealing to me, something that would be a spiritual benefit to someone(s). I know from my history with the Lord, that when I do speak what He tells me, it is the truth and it will benefit those who hear and obey it's directive - experience has proven that over these many years. Therefore, I confidently share, in hopes that someone will hear and receive! These are no 'small' words. These are words that will produce powerful results, if believed and acted upon. I don't take speaking words, lightly!)

I pray today, that you are one, walking after the Spirit of God, and that you will be a beneficiary of this 'word'.

Join me today as I press, even in the midst of stress, to obey the word of the Lord.

Let us REJOICE - all together! And see what the Lord will do!

Rejoice Always!

This morning I heard the Lord encouraging me to look up the word: REJOICE!

How many times is it found in the Bible? 184

What are the Hebrew and Greek definitions?

Rejoice:
be glad, joy, hail, greeting, God speed, joyfully, rejoice exceedingly, to be well, thrive. Rejoice (arrogantly); exult (at); to rejoice (religiously); to cause to rejoice, gladden, make glad; merry, triumph, joyful; delight; tremble; showing joy; merryhearted; you who rejoice. Sing aloud, shout, shout for joy, sing for joy; cry out; shout aloud; to overcome; give a ringing cry; to give a ringing cry (in joy, exultation, praise); to cause to ring or sing out (for joy). To be well off, fare well, prosper; acting well; well; well done; good! To rein in or curb; understanding; the midriff or diaphragm, the parts of the heart; the mind; the faculty of perceiving and judging. Leap, spring up, gush up, of water.

1 Peter 1: 8 - Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory.

Revelation 12: 12 - Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

Revelation 19: 7 - Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.

Rejoice in the Lord with me today! Let us, in the midst of trying circumstances, offer the sacrifices of Praise and Rejoicing unto Him! He is a GOOD God who has promised to deliver us and to keep us who have placed our trust in Him. No matter what the circumstances, He is greater!

Oh my soul, hope thou in God today! He is our Deliverer! So REJOICE!


Prayer:

Father, You said in your Word that we are to rejoice with those who rejoice and to weep with those who weep. We know that there are many today, weeping. There are many afflicted and in straits that we ourselves, are not in. Father, help! Send the necessary help to deliver! Help us to know our part in helping. If prayer, then prayer. If in doing, then doing. Let us not be slack to hear and to obey You, in whatever you would say to us, as our part. Lord God, you can make a way, where there seems to be no way. Be the way-maker today, in people's lives and in their particular situations. Be the healer of every manner of brokenness presenting itself. May those in need, find You and Your answers to be very present. We rebuke the devourer and his destructive devices. We speak forth the life of Jesus, to come and take up residence; to Redeem! Thank you Father. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.

Be Blessed Today!

Tuesday - June 10, 2008


New and additional insight regarding vision from June 8, 2008:


This morning I saw in the Holy Spirit: The U.S. borders
will be protected not only by it's own security forces (arms), but also by it's attention paid and support given to, the safety and keeping of Israel's borders.

Our weapons often only appear to the natural eye. However, all of the current events are working on a much grander scale than that of politics. The flares flying in the air these days,are ones stronger, mightier and weightier than any in the 'natural' - these are forces of light and darkness - opposing each other,vehemently!
.

There is One who knows and sees it ALL, and who is willing able, and looking for ones to reveal the "secrets" t
o.

One of the gifts and callings, most beneficial to this day, I believe, will be that of the "prophet". Next, the "intercessor". The next will be that of the "hearer and the doer"of the Word spoken. And oh, the necessity for the "evangelists" - to publish that word! And not evangelists in just the professional capacity, but every follower of Christ, boldly declaring the things spoken by the Holy Spirit for the days at hand.


In the writing of, and in the course of endeavoring to publish the book: Manifesto - Before The Cock Crows, I heard the Lord say to me,'This is a day permitting and even requiring, and approved by God, for "protocol" to be broken; in much the same way as was the day that Jesus began His ministry (the Father's) in the earth!


I have learned that it is difficult, even with internet, to get a "timely word" released, in a way that will reach people of intercession on time. Intercession can change things!I I believe that September 11, 2001, could have been prevented by the prophetic voices reaching the intercessors. I have known of many of these events, just like this, beforehand (by the Holy Spirit)! It takes a "locking of strong prayers" sometimes, to come against and to prevail over the enemies! This was the main message in the book: God wants Israel, meaning PREVAIL in the Hebrew, to do just that; PREVAIL! That includes Israel and all believers!

To believe in the prophetic voice, in these days, will be our
way of escape. Not only will the written Word of God stand, as resolute and trustworthy as always (even more so now), but the spoken "prophetic" of the five-fold "present day church," will have the power to deliver in this day and hour
.

Again:


2 Chronicles 20: 20 - And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa; and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall he prosper.

Ephesians 4: 11, 12 - And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers; for the perfecting of he saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ;

In the year 1998, the Lord spoke to me and said, "Get your
heads up out of the sand! Look up! I am getting ready to hook you up! There is a mighty coming forth of the "prophetic voice'"in the earth - to unite the Body of Christ - as one. Hear that voice! I will begin to hook up leaders in the church, by the like prophetic utterances. They will hear and know that it is my Spirit speaking. They will be drawn together through the single voice of My Spirit. Listen carefully for it! I will begin to direct the church by this "distinctive voice". (Excerpt from Manifesto - Before The Cock Crows. And I must quit there, because my "fire" will want to go on, and quote the entire content [prophetic] of the book.)


I so urge people, today, to listen to the voice of the prophets in the land! Test them, of course, by their fruits. What does that mean? Test their words spoken! Read Jeremiah 23: 9 - 32, - for God's instructions for the prophetic. The "proof of the authentic," is the outcome of the word spoken! Did that "word" come to pass or not?

In conclusion for today:

Prayer:

Father, open the ears of the hearers. Open our hearts to believe and to receive. May we allow the Holy Spirit sway over our inner man. Have free course over the highway in our mind. Speak your words to us in this day. Sharpen our discernment - both to hear you - and then to be able to move in the directions that you would set forth before us! Make us profitable to your Kingdom,in these days! Bless us, as we set outrhands to Your work! In Jesus' precious and powerful Name. Amen!

Share Prayer!

I held off sharing this vision, initially, but now sense the release to go ahead:

Friday A.M. (June 6, 2008):

I wanted to share an experience that I had early this morning:

The Lord awakened me out of a sleep and impressed me to be in the floor on my knees for prayer. The moment I touched the floor, I was transported by the Holy Spirit. I was standing within the draping of the gown - of the raised arm - of the Statue of Liberty. I looked at the draping and then the torch lifted high. The scene then changed to a hand gun. I saw a man's arm, with forearm held in a horizontal position. As I looked, he flexed to show his muscles. There on his upper arm were two very large mounds of muscle. I then heard these words: "Arms being smuggled in and our arms being smuggled out! Pray for the borders of the nation! You must double up on the strength of your prayers, for a doubling up, and a strengthening in protection for the security of your borders; thus the double muscle!" Then I heard these words, "Maybe President Clinton could come and help!"

Later this morning, as I was sharing this vision with an intercessory prayer leader, and as we began to pray together I saw this: A long "balloon curtain" being lowered; then a headboard of a bed. The scalloped edging of the balloon curtain was downward. The headboard was the same shape, with only one scallop, and of course on a much larger scale, with one post on either side of the center. The prayer partner thought that this may have had something to do with the Prime Minister of Israel and the Presidential elections in the U.S. taking place simultaneously.

The prayer partner recommended this web site (which I was not familiar with): arutzshavah.org. I logged onto the "blog" section of that page and the first video that came up (select: Tamar Yonah Show) - totally surprised me (I'm not deeply versed in the political arena) - as I watched and saw President Clinton standing, arms around, and between Israeli officials; as they were signing documents in this video. The title of the video: "No Katyusha's"! I'm not sure that the video has anything to do with what I saw this morning...I only share for prayer, as I have seen far too many highly significant warnings such as these (given me in the past), come to pass. At the time of those visions, I did not have anyone to join me in prayer. I am seeking for that now.

To those of you, serious intercessors, please take this one before the "throne" with
you; please!God Bless and direct our prayers!


Romans 8: 26 - Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not
what we should pray for as we ought; but the Spirit itself maketh intercession
for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

John 16: 13 - Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth is come, he will guide you into
all truth; for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that
shall he speak; and he will shew you things to come.

(Note: For some odd reason, I cannot get this particular blog post to obey my commands. Therefore, the reason for the 'scanty' order of things, here! I'll keep working at it. Until then ... know that it's one of the most important posts here!)

Still receiving for Zion!

A continual, steady flow from the Word of God, is bringing my attention to Zion!

Isaiah 8: 12 - 22 - Say ye not, A confederacy, to all them to whom this people shall say, A confederacy; neither fear ye their fear, nor be afraid. Sanctify the Lord of hosts himself; and let him be your fear, and let him be your dread. And he shall be for a sanctuary; but for a stone of stumbling and for a rock of offence to both the houses of Israel, for a gin and for a snare to the inhabitants of Jerusalem. And many among them shall stumble, and fall, and be broken, and be snared, and be taken. Bind up the testimony, seal the law among my disciples. And I will wait upon the Lord, that hideth his face from he house of Jacob, and I will look for him. Behold, I and the children whom the Lord hath given me are for signs and for wonders in Israel from the Lord of hosts, which dwelleth in mount Zion. And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? For the living to the dead? To the law and to the testimony; if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them. And they shall pass through it, hardly bestead and hungry; and it shall come to pass, that when they shall be hungry, they shall fret themselves, and curse their king and their God, and look upward. And they shall look unto the earth; and behold trouble and darkness, dimness of anguish; and they shall be driven to darkness.

(I believe these scriptures to be depictive of things that are effecting our nation at this hour!)

Isaiah 9: (entire chapter) - vs. 1,2 - Nevertheless the dimness shall not be such as was in her vexation, when at the first he lightly afflicted the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, and afterward did more grievously afflict her by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, in Galilee of the nations. The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined...vs. 5 - 8 - For every battle of the warrior is with confused noise, and garments rolled in blood; but this shall be with burning and fuel of fire. For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this. The Lord sent a word into Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel...vs. 13 - 21 - For the people turneth not unto him that smiteth them, neither do they seek the Lord of hosts. Therefore the Lord will cut off from Israel head and tail, branch and rush, in one day. The ancient and honourable, he is the head; and the prophet that teacheth lies, he is the tail. For the leaders of this people cause them to err; and they that are led of them are destroyed. therefore the Lord shall have no joy in their young men , neither shall have mercy on their fatherless and widows; for every one is an hypocrite and an evildoer, and every mouth speaketh folly. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still, for wickedness burneth as the fire; it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke. Through the wrath of the Lord of hosts is the land darkened, and the people shall be as the fuel of the fire; no man shall spare his brother. And he shall snatch on the right hand, and be hungry; and he shall eat on the left hand, and they shall not be satisfied; they shall eat every man the flesh of his own arm; Manasseh, Ephraim; and Ephraim, Manasseh; and they together shall be against Judah. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

(Again, what applies to Israel, applies to the entire world, all peoples, tongues and tribes, no matter the gender, either - young and old alike. Proverbs 14: 12 - There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.)

Isaiah 10: 1 - Woe unto them that decree unrighteous decrees, and that write grievousness which they have prescribed; to turn aside the needy from judgment, and to take away the right from the poor of my people, that widows may be their prey, and that they may rob the fatherless. And what will ye do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which shall come from far? to whom will ye leave your glory? Without me they shall bow down under the prisoners, and they shall fall under the slain. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

(The unjust balance in our nations' court system, presently, is dangerously aligning itself with the context of these scriptures! I believe these verses, to actually be a WARNING to the Courts of the United States of America! God has known for a very long time, that this day was coming! He revealed it to me in the year 2004. I know exactly what He said concerning this matter and I know His judgment towards it all! I saw it exposed before my very eyes by revelation of the Holy Spirit of God!)

Isaiah 10: 12 - Wherefore it shall come to pass, that when the Lord hath performed his whole work upon mount Zion and on Jerusalem, I will punish the fruit of the stout heart of the king of Assyria, and the glory of his high looks...vs. 20 - 27 - And it shall come to pass in that day, that the remnant of Israel, and such as are escaped of the house of Jacob, shall no more again stay upon him that smote them; but shall stay upon thee Lord, the Holy One of Israel, in truth. The remnant shall return, even the remnant of Jacob, unto the mighty God. For though thy people Israel be as the sand of the sea, yet a remnant of them shall return; the consumption decreed shall overflow with righteousness. For the Lord God of hosts shall make a consumption, even determined, in the midst of all the land. Therefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, O my people that dwellest in Zion, be not afraid of the Assyrian; he shall smite thee with a rod, and shall lift up his staff against thee, after the manner of Egypt. For yet a very little while, and the indignation shall cease, and mine anger in their destruction. And the Lord of hosts shall stir up a scourge for him according to the slaughter of Midian at the rock of Oreb; and his rod was upon the sea, so shall be taken away from off thy shoulder, and his yoke from off thy neck, and the yoke shall be destroyed because of the anointing.

(I'm not yet sure, as to the full application of these scriptures upon this day, but I do know that the Holy Spirit is pressing me with 'Zion, smiting, our love for Him and a turning back to Him'.)

  • Of course, our eyes are on the nation of Israel and all that is happening for her. We must keep our prayers as a shield, garrison, guard and protection over her, as her enemies are many and are ruthless; and mercilessly taunting her!
  • I know that God knows the end from the beginning, that He sees it all and knows what's coming before it comes. He knows the choices that we will make before we make them and He knows the outcome. He also has a plan that He is ready to implement on our behalf, if we will stop and heed His voice.
  • Today, there are so many crucial circumstances, on so many crucial levels, all taking place simultaneously; all weaving their webs and all creating 'new and unfamiliar' circumstances for us to deal with. I prophesied (ten years ago - live on tape) that there would be things coming upon the earth soon, that would require of us a brand new knowledge, with which to prevail. I am seeing the very fulfillment of that prophecy, right now, in this day that we are in.
  • 'Be Sure In Knowing - The Winds Are Blowing'! This is a title in my book. Do you believe it? I do!

The Lord awakened me with this scripture this morning, early:

1 Timothy 2: 1 - 4 - I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

I think that sums up the interpretation of all of the above scriptures and their bearing upon our world's present condition. Pray! Pray! Pray! For ALL NATIONS - PRAY! DILIGENTLY!

Another Day For Zion!

The Lord awakened me @ 4:00 A.M.:

Psalm 129: 1 - 8 - Many a time have they afflicted me from my youth; may Israel now say: The plowers plowed upon my back; they made long their furrows. The Lord is righteous; he hath cut asunder the cords of the wicked. Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion. Let them be as the grass upon the housetops, which withereth afore it groweth up; Wherewith the mower filleth not his hand; nor he that bindeth sheaves his bosom. Neither do they which go by say, The blessing of the Lord be upon you; we bless you in the name of the Lord.

Psalm 130: 1 -8 - Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord. Lord, hear my voice; Let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication. If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared. I wait for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning; I say, more than they that watch for the morning. Let Israel hope in the Lord; for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption. And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.

(Over and over again [for the past two weeks] the Lord has placed these scriptures before my eyes.) Thank God for His mercy towards all men, today through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus Christ, the pure and spotless Lamb of God.

Prayer:

Lord, open the eyes of all men, women and children in the world today, to see You, to know You and to come to understand all things through Your wisdom, knowledge and understanding. You are a loving God who loves to give good gifts to your children. It is your desire to give us Your Kingdom. I pray today, Lord, that many ears will be opened to hear, eyes will be opened to see and hearts will be opened to receive all that You have prepared for those who love You! Let Your Word go forth - around the globe - with the news of the Risen Son! Bring the knowledge through Your Word, that we, can be raised with Him and that by Him we may be seated in heavenly places with Him!

God Bless the earth today and the inhabitants thereof! God Bless Israel! God bless His Church! Amen!

7:30 A.M.:

Ezekiel 16 (Entire Chapter)

3 - 9 - And say, Thus saith the Lord God unto Jerusalem; Thy birth and thy nativity is of the land of Canaan; thy father was an Amorite, and thy mother a Hittite. And as for thy nativity, in the day thou wast born thy navel was not cut, neither wast thou washed in water to supple thee; thou wast not salted at all, nor saddled at all. None eye pitied thee, to do any of these unto thee, to have compassion upon thee; but thou wast cast out in the open field, to the lothing of thy person, in the day that thou wast born. And when I passed by thee, and saw thee polluted in thine own blood, I said unto thee when thou wast in thy blood, Live. I have caused thee to multiply as the bud of the field, and thou hast increased and waxen great, and thou are come to excellent ornaments: thy breasts are fashioned, and thine hair is grown, whereas thou wast naked and bare. Now when I passed by thee, and looked upon thee, behold, thy time was the time of love; and I spread my skirt over thee, and covered thy nakedness: yea, I sware unto thee, and entered into a covenant with thee, saith the Lord God, and thou becamest mine. Then washed I thee with water; yea, I throughly washed away thy blood from thee, and I anointed thee with oil. ... 14) And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty; for it was perfect through my comliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God. But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passsed by; his it was... vs. 60) Nevertheless I will remember my covenant with thee the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant. And I will establish my covenant with thee; and thou shalt know that I am the Lord; that thou mayest remember, and be confounded, and never open thy mouth any more because of thy shame, when I am pacified toward thee for all that thou hast done, saith the Lord God.

God's Mind Is On Zion!

On an unusual, consistent basis these days, I am receiving readings in scripture pertaining directly to Zion! Whenever something like this happens with me, I know that it's an indicator that something is 'up' - in the mind of God. What comes next, is a 'digging' or a leading to pursue further, in whatever direction He specifies.

So...

Zion: Hebrew - 'parched place 1) another name for Jerusalem especially in the prophetic books; title, waymark, sign 1) signpost, monument, market; (compare) Musician, set forward, overseers, excel, oversee, perpetual, chief singer 1) to excel, be bright, be preeminent, be perpetual, be overseer, be enduring 1a) enduring 1b) to act as overseer or superintendent or director or chief; dry, dry land, wilderness, drought, dry places, solitary place, barren 1) dryness, drought, desert; Sion or Zion = 'a parched place' 1) the hill on which the higher and more ancient part of Jerusalem was built 1a) the southwestern most and highest of the hills on which the city was built 2) often used of the entire city of Jerusalem 3) since Jerusalem the temple stood there, was called the dwelling place of God

Immediately reminded, of course, of Isaiah 35: 1 -10 - The wilderness and the solitary place shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice, and blossom as the rose. It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing; the glory of Lebanon shall be given unto it, the excellency of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of the Lord, and the excellency of our God. Strengthen ye the weak hands, and confirm the feeble knees. Say to them that are of a fearful heart, Be strong, fear not; behold, your God will come with vengeance, even God with a recompense; he will come and save you. then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. Then shall the lame man leap as an hart, and the tongue of the dumb sing; for in the wilderness shall waters break out, and streams in the desert. And the parched ground shall become a pool and the thirsty land springs of water; in the habitation of dragons, where each lay, shall be grass with reeds and rushes. And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called The way of holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it; but it shall be for those; the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err therein. No lion shall be there, nor any ravenous beast shall go up thereon, it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there; and the ransomed of the Lord shall return, and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy upon their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Oh, so GOOD! And oh, so true!

Here are some of the particular scriptures being pointed out to me in my reading:

Psalm 133: 13 - For the Lord hath chosen Zion; he hath desired it for his habitation.

Psalm 134: 3 - The Lord that made heaven and earth bless thee out of Zion.

Psalm 135: 21 - Blessed be the Lord out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the Lord.

Psalm 137: 1 - By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

Psalm 146: 10 - The Lord shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, unto all generations. Praise ye the Lord.

Psalm 147: 12 - Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem; praise thy God, O Zion.

Psalm 149: 2 - Let Israel rejoice in him that made him; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

This is the 60th celebration of Israel as a nation. Praise the Lord and let Him forever be praised in Zion!

Zion: (Dictionary 1948 New Century) - A hill or mount of Jerusalem, the center of ancient Hebrew worship; hence, the house or household of ancient Hebrew worship; hence, the house or household of God, as consisting of the chosen people; the Israelites; also, the theocracy, or church of God; the church in general; also, heaven as the final gathering-place of true believers; also, a church or shape of some Christian denominations.

Zionism: A modern plan or movement to colonize Hebrews in Palestine, the land of Zion; a movement to secure for such Jews as cannot or will not be assimilated in the country of their adoption a national homeland in Palestine.

Zionist: An advocate or adherent of Zionism. Of or pertaining to Zionists or Zionism.

Zionward: Toward Zion.

It's so energizing to read scripture and then to actually see the manifestation of it before your very eyes, in your own, present day! I love it! God is so GOOD and so TRUE. If we ever needed good and true, we need it today - don't you agree?

I'm so thankful that as I look around and see so much heartache, tragedy, and loss in the world today, I can still count on the stedfast love, care, and provision of the Lord. So many situations exist today, for His hand to move in. And there are so many opportunities for us, as His followers, to be His hand extended to those in needy situations. What a day and an hour that presents itself to us.

I was just reading Billye Brimm's current newsletter, this morning. As a matter of fact, I haven't even had the chance to finish it, yet. I love hearing her information regarding Israel; firsthand. She has such a real part in everything going on there and I know that we can all trust her insights and reports. God bless you Billye for your obedience to the Lord. Thank you for your many years of faithful ministry to the Body of Christ in the earth and to all those that the Lord leads you to!

Isn't it wonderful to be able to look at Israel and see the hand of God? Isn't it a 'nail of security' for us, as we see Him faithfully fulfilling His Words to Israel? We know by these things, that His entire Word, is just as trustworthy. Everything that He says in His Word - can be counted on to be brought to pass! Oh, how powerful a thing for our lives, in HIM!

Prayer:

God, strengthen Israel today. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem. We pray for all leaders of all nations, today. We pray for the relationship between Israel and the United States. We pray for all Christian leaders in the earth today. Lord, have Your way! Strengthen your Kingdom in the earth, in this year. Bring the increase to Your kingdom, here, in the earth, in the way that You spoke to me of at the beginning of the year - 2008. Give us intricate roles by which to create such an increase. Appoint unto each one, an integral part this year, as we truly seek Your face for it and sell out our lives unto it! Bless the work of your laborers hands, in this day! Let protection be around about each one and give them 'witty inventions'; strategies to prevail against their enemies in this day! Prevail - is Your Word - for this hour!

Psalm 119: 97 - 106 - O how I love thy law! It is my meditation all the day. Thou through thy commandments hast made me wiser than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. I have more understanding than all my teachers, for thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand more than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. I have refrained my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. I have not departed from thy judgments; for thou hast taught me. How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through thy precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path. I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.
