FREE THE DANCERS!
March 17, 2012 | 24 Comments
DECREE
I’ve just had a beautiful and glorious and powerful time of worshipping the Holy Lamb of God! In response I wanted to write a word that dropped into my mind today. I would like to issue a word of decree that His dancers would go free! And so I say in the Name of Jesus, the King: “Let My people go that they might worship Me on My holy hill!”
Let the mindsets that hold the dancers of God at bay – let those mindsets be renewed and replaced with the mind of Christ and an understanding of spiritual things by the Spirit of God!
DANCERS ARE TO BE SEEN!
Concerning the above I am waiting for the church at large to understand that the Lord’s dancers are to be seen and heard. Still we battle the mindset that a dancer must not draw attention to themselves, as if when we spread our wings and fly we were failing to revere the only One who is worthy!
And yet, it is for the church to look upon HIM in His dancers. But how can they look upon Him if the dancers are not seen? For as Paul said, “how can they hear unless the word is preached,” and God is certainly preaching His word visibly through His dancers!
DANCERS – HIS STANDARD BEARERS
God’s dancers are spiritual standard bearers. On a natural level, the standard bearer went ahead of the army carrying the crest or colors of that nation. As the troops looked on the standard they would be reminded who they were fighting for and take heart. Viewing the standard of their nation would bring a sense of unity and would strengthen them and inspire them as they marched into battle.
As suggested, the Lord has standard bearers in HIS army too – His dancers! For they bear His colors. They speak forth His Name – His Person – as they dance His words and lift up His Person at the head of the army! But how can the army see His standard if the dancers are always told “No, no, don’t draw too much attention to yourself. Worship is all about Jesus.”
Yes! Precisely! But that’s exactly why dancers should be seen, because those whose hearts are fixed on Him won’t see a body drawing attention to anyone but HIM and in so doing they will be blessed as they look upon Jesus in His dancing Bride! In deed, those with eyes to see and ears to hear will only have their worship experience enhanced as they join corporately in the dance of the Lord in and through and over His people!
PROPHETIC SONG – AN AWAKENING IN THE DESERT – AN ARMY COMPELLED BY LOVE
Those are my thoughts about dancers in the Church. And now I would like to share the word/song of the Lord that came to me as I sat down to write about these things:
Who’d have thought an army would be made up of a dancer times Three, would be made up of My Bride and Me? I would have thought! I would have thought (it). For I am not like you (man); I do not strive or contend. But I send forth My Spirit and I move the hearts of men.
That’s why My Bride, that’s why My beautiful Bride is an army not of strife, but of love, and of light.
She’s an army of love and light.
The Lord is asking “Who will go for Me? Whom will I send? Who will go for Me?
Those who have known Him in the desert; these will be compelled to go, compelled by love…
Who comes from afar? It’s an army, in the desert. For there is NOW an awakening in the desert, says the King. The Bride is emerging leaning on her Beloved’s wings. She’s arising. She’s arising in Him! And those who have been tried by fire are now flames to go forth in the fire of love and compassion to awaken hearts (to Him).
I am the God of all men. The God of Abraham. The God of perfection. The God who was and is and is coming again…Oh! My Bride, FOR My Bride…
But first you must go out into the desolate places and retrieve My prize: Awaken hearts. Fan the flame of My Spirit and awaken hearts in this time.
For see, many are in the desert, just like you were. But they are not there for training – some are there by their own making, some are there in captivity just waiting, just waiting, as you once waited on Me in the hour of your captivity. And now, am I not sending you? Have I not already commissioned you? Is the blood of My Son not enough to see you through? So go! So go. So go.
I am sending you, not to an easy place, but to a world of darkness, to a world that shrinks from grace, to a world that needs a place to fall…(I’m sending you) to the world before the last call.
CLOSING BLESSING
I’m hearing the same melody, now softly, as though the One singing it is walking into the distance still thinking on the matter at hand and His dancing Bride, still singing, even as He has turned to go on to other business and entrusted His Bride with His word to perform it.
“…she’s a dancer, she’s a dancer, she’s a dancer for Me! She’s My answer, she’s my answer, and in Me complete. She’s My standard, she’s My message, she’s My balm to My sheep, and I love her, oh I love her for keeps…”

MAY HIS DANCERS GO FREE!

THE PARABLE OF THE TEN VIRGINS
April 29, 2011 | 1 Comment
DO YOU HAVE OIL IN YOUR LAMP?
Dear friends,
Many of us have heard the Lord impress upon us that He is coming soon. I believe we need to take this very seriously. Matthew 24 outlines the signs of the end of the age. Natural disasters as described in this passage are increasing in the earth today. Let us not be blind to the signs of the times.
Following His teaching on the end times in Matthew 24, the Lord goes on to talk about the hour of His return specifically. Jesus describes it in the context of ten virgins – five wise and five foolish. The significance of this parable (as found in Matthew 25:1-13) is worth contemplating in these times:
The Parable of the Ten Virgins
1 “At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 4 The wise, however, took oil in jars along with their lamps. 5 The bridegroom was a long time in coming, and they all became drowsy and fell asleep.
6 “At midnight the cry rang out: ‘Here’s the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’
7 “Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out.’
9 “‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves.’
10 “But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.
11 “Later the others also came. ‘Sir! Sir!’ they said. ‘Open the door for us!’
12 “But he replied, ‘I tell you the truth, I don’t know you.’
13 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.”
WHO WERE THE TEN VIRGINS?
One of the first questions we need to ask is “Who were the ten virgins?” One might think they are believers (wise) and unbelievers (foolish). However, you’ll note that all ten had lamps. The lamps point to the presence of God or more specifically Christ, the light of the world. So we know from this that all ten were believers. They were all waiting for the Bridegroom. They have all received Jesus. They all believed in Him. However, the difference between the two groups of virgins lies in this: five were wise and five were foolish. Did you know you could be a believer and still be foolish?
The distinction between the wise and foolish is seen clearly in verses 7-8 of the parable where we see the foolish virgins have run out of oil to keep their lamps burning. What does oil represent? The Holy Spirit or the presence of God. The wise virgins, however, had oil in their lamps: the flame of Christ was lit by the power of the Holy Spirit!
Whereas the wise virgins had a relationship with the Holy Spirit and so were ready when the cry rang out to meet the Bridegroom the foolish had only a lamp for as the hour grew late, they had run out of oil. Why did they run out of “oil?” Because they had failed to cultivate a relationship with the Holy Spirit while there was still time to do so.
GET YOUR OWN OIL
The parable tells us that the cry rang out at midnight – that’s late. All virgins, including the wise had fallen asleep! However, they were all awakened by the cry and they all wanted to go to the wedding feast. Again, it wasn’t just the wise who had their hearts set on the feast, the foolish ones did too. However, the foolish were not prepared for the feast when it was time. This is clearly seen in the fact that their lamps were going out due to an insufficient supply of oil.
Running out of oil the foolish virgins said to the wise virgins: “Give us some of your oil.” The wise in essence, said: “If we give you some of our oil we won’t have enough!” The wise had gotten their oil from the Source and were not about to give what they had plumbed to the foolish. This reminds us that we each need to get our own oil, not by sponging off of others, but by drinking directly from Christ for our supply. It’s not about going to the latest conference or asking others to pray for us all the time. We need to have our lamps directly filled by the Holy Spirit and exhort others to do the same. Hence, the wise virgins told the foolish to go buy their own oil.
THERE IS A PRICE TO BE PAID
There was a price to be paid for the oil needed. Here we are reminded of Christ’s words to His Church in Revelation 3:18: “I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see.” Again, there is a price to pay to be found in Jesus – to have oil in our lamps. We see that those who pay the price are wise, but those who don’t are foolish. So what is the price to pay for oil?
Clearly, it is the laying down of our lives in the service of our Beloved. In this regard, the wise virgins had sought to walk and grow in the Lord by the power of His Holy Spirit and had stayed in step with the Spirit till the end. The foolish had obviously been busy with something else than pursuing God and forcefully advancing the kingdom or they wouldn’t have run out of oil. I believe they represent believers who were busy with the things of this world who, rather than paying the price for oil, had spent what they had on themselves.
DESIRE ALONE IS NOT ENOUGH
Although the foolish, at the last hour wanted to buy oil and enter the kingdom, they couldn’t. There was no time left. This reminds us that there is a window of time in which we can prepare for what is coming, whether it’s Jesus’ return or the next season of the Spirit. In either case there comes a time when the door is shut and God moves on with what has been determined to unfold at that time. If we want to move on with Him we have to be ready to move when He moves.
What does it mean to be ready? It means we have the proper things in place to accommodate the journey or reality when the appointed time arrives. For example, if a mountain climb club has scheduled an event, the people invited will need to acquire the proper climbing gear. It’s not enough to just have a desire to go to the event; if people are going to be able climb the mountain, they will need the appropriate equipment to do so. Moreover, they need to have their gear in place by the day of the event. The leader of the climb is not going to delay the climb he has planned just because someone isn’t ready. Rather, such a person will bear the consequence of their failure to have prepared in the time frame that was allotted them to do so.
The above principle is likewise seen in the parable of the wedding banquet in Matthew 22. Here we see a picture of the wedding feast that will take place at the end of the age. In this parable the king had his attendants invite many people to the event. However, only those who responded properly, being clothed with the garments of salvation (as symbolized by “wedding clothes”) could join in the festivities as verses 11-13 indicate:
“But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. ‘Friend,’ he asked, ‘how did you get in here without wedding clothes?’ The man was speechless. “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
In other words the King says “Hey this is a wedding. There’s a dress code. You need to respect the house rules. You don’t have wedding clothes on, so you need to leave.” Here again we see that it wasn’t a matter of the person not wanting to go to the wedding, but of lack of preparation. He didn’t acquire what was needed beforehand when he had the chance.
THE DOOR WILL BE SHUT ON THE FOOLISH
As for the parable of the ten virgins, the five wise made their way to meet the Bridegroom while the five foolish suddenly decided to go by oil. However, by the time the foolish returned with oil the doors to the wedding were shut. It’s too late. They now had their oil; but the time to respond to the Bridegroom’s call has come and gone. He has moved on.
The foolish virgins clearly did not spend their time preparing to meet the Bridegroom. As noted previously, they were busy doing their own thing. And so we see that although they had a lamp – a belief in Christ – this alone was not enough to bring them through the doors of the kingdom. They did not cultivate their relationship with Christ through the Holy Spirit as seen in their lack of oil. Even so, there are many today who believe in God, but they’re just doing church and living their own lives. They are not busy buying oil and keeping their lamps lit. They are being disqualified by their own foolishness for they are not living for Christ, but have been caught up in the affairs of this world.
I want to just emphasize what I shared above because this is where the Lord really began to impress this parable on my heart. Listen. The five virgins that didn’t make it into the wedding were not wicked. This parable doesn’t say they were sinful. It says they were foolish. It’s not simply the wicked that will be left out, but the foolish!
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE FOOLISH?
The Lord began to speak to me about what it means to be foolish. Psalm 53:1 begins by saying “The fool says in his heart there is no God.” To be foolish is to convince oneself there is no God. Now, the foolish virgins had a belief in God. However, they didn’t live as though they believed in Him because they didn’t take His warnings seriously. They didn’t live as though there was a God that was coming back for them. Rather, the foolish live as though this world is all there is. Their thoughts, their motives, their plans are based around building a life rooted in this world.
The Spirit also quickened to me that to be foolish is to ignore the warnings of what is to come. The word of God is full of warnings. Moreover, many voices today are crying out for the Church to repent and warning that the time is short and the return of our Lord is near. Are we listening? Are we doing all we can to prepare? Are we walking in holiness? Or are we still living like we belong to this world?
So many believe they are saved but they have no oil. So many are believing the lie that just believing and going to church and doing good deeds is enough. It’s the easy way out but it’s not the way in. It’s the sign of a Church that has became numb and dead and lazy. She has decided: “This is comfortable. I have everything I need. I have all the material things I need.” This deception is presenting many from seeing the desperateness of their human condition. Hence, Christianity has been reduced to nothing more than a convenient religion among a lukewarm church! The wise, however, are preparing for what is to come – the kingdom of God and the midnight hour.
WE MUST PREPARE BEFORE MIDNIGHT FALLS
“Midnight” – the beginning of the end will be a season in which we will walk through the darkness toward our Bridegroom with our lamps lit. It is a passage that will serve as a bridge leading up to His return. In order to find our way in the dark of this hour, we will need light – the Light of the world. We will need oil – the oil of the Holy Spirit for it is only through Him that our lamps (our Light) will be lit. We can’t light it ourselves. We can’t do the Christian life in our own strength even if we believe in Christ! It is only through the Holy Spirit that the light of Christ can be fanned into flame within us to light our pathway before us. As already discussed this investment must precede the midnight hour, so that we have in place all we need when darkness falls and man can work no more (John 12:35-36).
As for the five foolish virgins, it’s not like the foolish were not given ample time to buy oil. The Scripture tells us the cry rang out at midnight. There are many hours leading up to midnight. Why didn’t they make use of the time while they still had the light? Didn’t they take time to think that when midnight came it would be too late? No. Because foolish people don’t think of the consequences of their actions. They don’t consider things beyond the present moment and the present world. However, that does not change the fact that when midnight comes it will be too late for those who are unprepared to ready themselves for the fullness of the hour.
Do you see how imperative it is that we prepare NOW, that we ‘buy oil’ NOW…that we don’t wait until the cry rings out or the door is shut? When the midnight hour comes it will be too late to prepare. The darkness will fall and we will need to already be equipped at that time in order to have what we need to overcome it and endure until the end. Similarly, Jesus has said in Luke 12:38-40: “It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night. But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have let his house be broken into. You also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect Him.” But if we are spending our lives on this world, how can we expect to be found ready?
“AWAKEN!”
If only souls would understand that friendship with the world is enmity toward God! (James 4:4) If only they would understand that the lukewarm church is an enemy of the gospel and not a co-laborer, that what they are actually serving is a false religion…then these foolish ones could turn and be saved! For God does not desire that these ones should remain among the foolish but that they would repent and become wise while there is still time…but there is so little time left. Even so, as I recited this message into my tape recorder (to later transcribe here), things ended like this: “It’s time to get serious. There is so little time left. There is little time left. “Ring!” My husband spoke: “My cell phone is ringing…” In deed! The cry is even now ringing out dear Church. Awaken and hear! Prepare!
On a positive note, as I wrote the section about the unfolding of the midnight hour, I heard the Spirit saying: “See the awakening that’s coming. See many who sleep will awake.” I don’t know exactly how this fits in, but let’s pray this awakening comes forth in the fullness that the Lord desires and that many who hear this message will even now “Awaken!”

I’m riding with a sword in My hand
I will divide the land – the sheep on My right and the goats on My left.
Horses and chariots of fire, fire falling, fire falling down
My horses are My prophets
They will smash the rocks to pieces with My word –
I have put a sword in your hand, in your mouth…
Zion will rise again
I will raise her up like a warhorse
She’s going to rise and plunder like a warhorse -
like a warhorse
like a warhorse.
Even from the dust she’s going to rise
because the Spirit of the Lord is being poured out
and your sons and daughters will prophesy (reference to Joel 2:28)
But it won’t stop there; look to the sky – cause I’m riding in the sky,
riding on high…
I’m gonna shake, shake Orion cause I’m riding.
I’m looking for a people who will ride with me to victory
looking for a people who will ride -
not a baby but a people,
who will ride,
rise and ride,
ride, ride, ride.

Rise! Rise! Rise!
My fire and your fire – they will join together
and we will ride.
see them (His coals/army) I’m calling them over the hills
(I see many hills and what I see are warriors on horses coming over the hills one by one. It’s not an organized army yet, but it’s one here, two there, one there, one to the west, one on the east etc. Many, as though having been formed alone in hiding, now revealed, and as they respond to the call to follow Him to ride, their paths will cross.)
They’re riding for Me.
Justice. I love justice.
I hate, I hate your religious festivals where you call on Me
but don’t open your hearts to Me. Don’t make Me spew you from My mouth.
Rise up.
Hear the sound that’s calling you -
do you hear the bells?
Rebellion will not be tolerated in My land.
The sorcerer will not be permitted to enter My place of rest.
No more, no more Jezebel.

Now I decree victory -
New day – ride with Me.
You can’t stay (only) standing anymore.
Who will ride with Me on high?
See the warhorse riding.
So many of you you have rode with Him alone and you have fought…
See He’s riding now,
See the wind, it’s coming. He says: “and those scars show Me that you
love not your own life unto death. It’s for YOU that I’m coming!
(fierce passion in His voice as He said this).
It’s for you and you and you …
Charlotte,
Anthony,
Delores in your hiding place -
“rockabye baby.”
I made you new and you can come now and follow Me.
We’re crossing the river now.
(I see an army of warriors crossing over waist high waters on horse back).
No matter what lies on the other side you are not terrified
for you know I’m the captain of the army
and I won’t lead you into a trap
but I’ll lead you through.
I’ll lead you OVER the ranks of the darkness,
over the strongholds,
over the banks,
I’ll lead you over as you ride.
Not by sitting or standing or walking will you cross, but by riding -
Who will ride with Me?
My chariots seat thousands.
My chariots seat the nations.
I don’t need you to ride with Me but I want you to
because you are the delight of My eye.
You capture the heart of the warrior in Me.
You capture the heart of the God that beats for you -
I pledge My love to you…
warhorse.
(Father pour out strength in your people)
Awaken from slumber the dormant in soul.
There’s a call that’s going out – righteousness and justice kiss,
And you kiss Me when you open your heart to Me
You kiss justice, truth and righteousness when you say “Yes, Lord.”
We say “yes, Lord.”
(Lord Jesus we want to touch You.)
In the heavenly places where we ride
My purposes and plans are like concrete - solid as the foundations of this world…
stronger, like steel… stronger.
See how I’m forming you – I’m the blacksmith too,
I haven’t sent this trial to forsake you
but you’re going to know your way now (because you learned it through this fire,
so you can mount higher in the coming war).
Righteousness and justice, justice is the plumbline.
He wants His bride to hold justice in her hand,
(for) See the steed on which He rides is called “Justice.”
He says “My justice will not leave you wanting”
and as you ride with Me, release My justice.
As your feet go forth
release My justice.
Don’t just look around, don’t just walk the streets, but release My words
and you’ll see justice on the earth.
I the Lord has spoken these things to you so you’ll follow Me,
I want you to follow Me. Ride with Me.
Justice.
Those who love justice will see the arm of the Lord
strong and sure over their nations, over their peoples, and their lives.
There is a timeline, you’ll cross the sea into My justice: “NOW.”
I want to establish you in that place, in My justice. 222.
Yes MY sheep (He said this with such passion and love),
YOU are the ones I am caring for.
I want to establish you, My sheep.
See Him, He’s opening the way. He’s a breaker opening the way.
He’s going to make many of you like jackhammers,
making many of you into breakers to break open the way,
cause He wants to come into the earth and bring justice
and proclaim His kingdom -
He wants to come.
He wants to come in these times,
He wants to establish justice.
But first there’s a war, says the Lord -
a great separation – a war in heaven but you won’t be forsaken,
because I have a sword in My hand and you’re the apple of My eye.
Don’t be terrified in this war.
See the diamonds, see the pearls, see the shimmering gold -
the world will be transformed, fit for a King to return.
In the midst of trouble I’m churning the waters of the sea
and they’ll yield precious stones.
Anointing, rich oil of anointing (rep. by these stones)
These ones will carry great anointing – for those who seek Me
will be given these stones, -
diamonds of truth…
keys to unlock (enemy) kingdom doors and plunder.
Guess what you’ll find -
You’ll find My pearls – kingdom anointing – even under the earth!
(He’s giving these pearls and jewels rep. anointing) for power and great exploits
cause I’m weighing the earth, My people, (worth?)
I give you rubies, diamonds and sapphires,
gold for My warriors…precious stones.
And I say “Lord how do we access these stones?”
Take your pick and hit upon the ground (Saw a person with a mining pick
tool striking rocky ground.)
Take (release) My word and the atmosphere will hear the sound
and the gate will open,
and we’ll gather together My daughter, My princes and My daughters,
You’ll share in My conquest and the plunder from the earth.
Once you were plundered but I’m raising you now –
you’ll be the head like Esther.
I’ll reward you according to your conduct not your sins,
the conduct of your heart (which is) set to worship me like a Kking (who)
sits on the throne…
Alexander (the Great) was a great king
Isaiah 32
Alexander Alexander (released the name 10 times)
but I’m a great King.
“I’ve got 10 bullets left to shoot.
Who wants these 10? Because there’s a mantle called “Alexander”
warhorse, warhorse. (The name Alexander means “Protector or men.”)
It’s not for nothing that you suffered in the fire of affliction
…it’s not for nothing.
Haven’t I told you before I’m your reward.
Cherish Me with all your heart as I do you,
Watch the rivers part as I break through - NOW.
Champion of justice -
He’s a champion of justice.
Conquest
(Here He lifted My head so I was looking straight up with My neck thrust back.
Then I heard: “those who look to Him are radiant always.” (reference to Ps. 34:5).
I’m making you new, changing you -
from daughters into warrior bride…
(We went) into the chambers of intimacy,
through the doors of change,
( “emerging” ?) singing songs to Him.
See these ones -
taken from the fire.
See these stones in My hand -
precious jewels for the Lamb shine My light.
And we will ride on horses white -
on horses in the night (sensed assignments that will be accomplished in the night
as we sleep – co-laboring with angels).
Many mantles are falling from heaven on the shoulders of the faithful
so you can go to new heights and ride.
I’m going to match the intensity and the passion in your heart
with the power to mount up higher and pour out (re. what you have inside).
I’m nailing My decrees to the walls,
to the walls of justice.
Come and read them My people –
Come and get your assignments.
Who will go for me?
Who will ride?
Who will ascend to the sky
to ride on the warhorse of justice,
to ride where I ride?
I tell you it’s those who are coming out from the fire who will so ride!
Those coming out from the furnace.
Yes daughter, there is a day of restitution;
there is a day when you will look back and say “so long ago!” (re. the suffering
that precedes glory/desert season etc.)
“Now I’m riding at the side of My king -
riding for justice.”
(Here I had My hand on My head thinking of the cost and what was lost)
And I hear: New growth,
and justice.
New hope.
Righteousness and truth, yes.
Return to your fortress oh prisoner of hope (Zech. 9:12)
and I’ll give you more than you have lost.
I’m dividing the waters now and dividing the allotments
in proportion to what you have endured.
I’m pouring My glory on My humble daughters and sons.
Take the plunder back
from where you’ve been before.
And all those places where you were put to shame and you said “it’s a desert land”
I say “No, it’s a field getting ready to be harvested.”
So ride now and take that field.
So ride. Conquest. Ride.
I’ll give you many more (fields) after that field that’s behind you,
many more I’ll give you
because cause heaven comes to earth…
I’m pouring out a new thing.
Do you hear the ringing of the bells on the robes of My priesthood?
It’s a new thing behind closed doors where Esther was veiled and prepared -
I have forged you and you My people you are the new thing I’m declaring, doing.
You are My greatest weapon.
You’re My eyes, and you’ll see as I see.
Don’t be afraid to decree justice into the bowels of the earth
for as you speak justice, even into the underworld
chains will break, and you’ll see a new day.
An earthquake as the sound of the soldiers feet pound the ground
for YOU are the new thing and you will usher in the new day.
“Justice beneath your feet,” He says,
because as things break beneath the earth, you’ll see the new day -
because jewels are mined from the bowels of the earth.
Whistle for the horses to come (Lord, I can’t whistle)
Whistle and they’ll come. (Andre whistled!)
See the spotted horses -
the multicolored ones – (later heard: these are My daughters and sons).
The horses. The warhorses are His sons and daughters.
See the robes of majesty upon My daughters and sons.
(me) I see a white horse with brown spots- he was once a colt now he’s grown up -
See, a recompense come quickly.
Don’t be afraid to ride with Me, for I’ll take you over the sea.
Mount up with Me, My people.
(me) And I hear the bells – they’re are on the saddles
(I saw silver bells, like one on each corner of the saddles and maybe more)
The bells speak of ancient pathways opening up –
of priests and Levites drinking from one cup,
singing songs of heaven.
See, these are My prophets.
These are My warhorses -
sounds that break open the way,
the sound of My people who love My name and My ways…
it’s a sound.
A WORD FOR ISRAEL
Now there’s another sound coming that will impact the earth.
It’s going to stir you to draw closer.
It’s the sound of My heartbeat,
like the sound of a mother gathering her chicks beneath her wings.
It’s My sound calling My offspring ,
“Israel!!! Israel!!! Israel!!! Israel!!!” (significant FOUR times).
(He shouted with loud, fierce passion her name).
Break! Break! Break! Break! (significant FOUR times)
There’s a storm coming to you (Israel)
but I’ll keep you like a castle on a hill,
like a king’s castle that’s protected from the heart of the battle
(I had a sense here of the king’s castle being ‘set back’ in the heart of the land away from the frontlines where the battle is fiercest.)
I have stationed barriers around you Israel (like around a king’s castle)
His presence, angels…
I will not let you go,
nor let the flood waters invade your gates and sweep you away.
But let your roots go deep into Me
for there’s a great storm
(Here I saw demonic winged creatures swooping down and darkness surrounding them in the skies around the land where the castle was
As I saw the darkness I felt a coolness on My skin, like shivers and goosebumps – tangibly. It wasn’t eerie though. I sensed it more likely as the presence of the Lord drawing extra close as a sign.)
I’ll be with you in great power and glory.
I will fight for you! I will fight for you
My people – daughters of Zion, daughters and sons.
Look up. Your time has come.
There’s a new sound hitting the ground,
It’s like lava pouring, pouring from the mountain of the Lord -
like the power of many waters.
See My army. She’s a warhorse.
(Now we’re) opening the tombs: “Let My people Go! (decreed this about 6 times)
that they might worship Me on My Holy Hill. (reminiscent of Moses “Let My
people go, that they might worship Me in the desert.)
Let the earth be still for the Lord has roused Himself (Zech. 2:13).
Let the earth be still.
He’s coming in fierce intensity for His people Israel.
“I’ll bless those who bless you
and barricade the way of those who hate you.”
(As I prophesied the above, the Spirit was prophetically moving through My body and He marked out FOUR points along an invisible barricade of a half circle surrounding the front of the castle (rep. Israel). Also sensed Four wells.
Let My people Go! (decreed this again about five times.)
Sunshine -
sunshine in the darkest places,
swift like a razor blade.
Now is a time of great anticipation in heaven,
all the name plates are laid.
There’s one more thing you must know:
I’m raising a remnant song
and the song says:
“Even unto death I will follow My King; wherever He goes I too will go
(here He bowed me low on the ground as before a King, and had me covering My head in humility before Him.)
Silence.
Then He raised His hand and said:
“My people arise from the dust.
Take in your hands the sword of My prophets,
and overcome with slingshots of fire.”
I put fire in your hands -
you will withstand every circumstance.
I’ll be a wall around you -
you won’t fear the heat of day
nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness;
they will not come near you
for I am taking you into the secret place
and adorning you, yes, with grace and truth,
and they will protect you.
They shall adorn you:
it’s My grace that sustains you
it’s truth that close the door to the arrows that fly by night.
Take up your sword.
A WORD FOR THE MIRIAMS
I call for you Miriams!
I call My Miriams to go forth at the head of My arMy!
(Here He was PASSIONATE calling for the Miriams (tambourine worshippers/ those with the call of and heart of Miriam) to come forth. And passionate about telling His church to stop pushing her aside as insignificant; upset that they could not ‘see’ her. He was instating her into her proper place.)
“They say ‘oh, she’s pretty with her ribbons and her drums.’
I say “She’s more than pretty – she’s My battle cry!”
“Come forth out of that room where they have put you!”
(He called her forth out of confined spaces several times.)
(Miriam) She’s My battle cry, My standard,
My glorious one (who) represents My bride -
the one who celebrates - she cheers Me on,
And then I go forth with her cheers
like a fire (propelling Me)
like the water (propelling Me)
like the husband that’s been loved by His wife (is how) she sends Me out.
She sends Me – My Miriams -”war cry.”
Hold your standard high.
Miriam, come out!
I’m unlocking the door.
I don’t want you alone (worshipping Me) in your living room only.
I want you to lead My people in intimacy,
into the beauty of holiness because you’ve seen My face.
You’ve seen me.
Lead My army because I’m calling you come forth…
(The next night I heard more for the Miriams):
I told Andre “And there was more for them (i.e. the Miriams):
“I wear them like a bracelet on My arm – shining in the sun – My Miriam.”
I have put her out in front – See how she shines!
I opened My bible to Ps. 26:12 which is a word for the:
“My feet stand on level ground; in the great assembly I will praise the Lord.”
He’s riding; see He’s riding – riding on.
‘And the first shall be last and the last shall be first
when I wave My hand and call you to pass
(here I see a road worker (construction) waving for the cars that have been
waiting to now pass throughand move forward.)
And you will go out, and you will come in…rejoicing…My Miriam.
The following is the continuation of the prophecy on Yom Kipper:
Oh My people, My radiant Bride, do not hide your face from Me.
I’m coming for you daughter of Zion.
We will ride like a song,
And I see Joel 2, where they’re plunging through the windows,
No more. No more eagle’s nests. Make haste
Breathtaking wilderness made beautiful by My people adorned in Me.
See, the constellations that I made.
that I made for you, My people.
that I made for you to shine in the heavens.
Even these will shake when I come.
Even these will be removed from their orbits.
I’m preparing you, and I’m preparing you…
Look up, look up, look up.
The wealth of the wicked will not be permitted to endure forever.
I’m shaking loose, I’m shaking loose some things.
Do you hear the sound, do you hear the sound, do you hear the sound of My army?
(clap! = release!)
Do you hear the sound, do you hear the sound, do you hear the sound of My army?
She’s rising. She’s rising, she’s rising up, above the hills, above the expanse,
Call (to) Justice to “See as I see.” She’s rising.
I made you a tower and a silhouette in the night
that many will look to you and see justice in your eyes.
My Justice!!! My justice! My justice…
moves past, My justice – smooth paths…smooth paths.
I’m creating you, oh, I’m recreating you as in your mother’s womb
Aha! Be renewed!
My words are like fire in your hands!
My word, like a sword in the land,
My words, My words, My words your song. End of prophecy (for now).
4:44 – Just as I finished typing out the word above (from tape recorder), this was the time. 4 represents the four winds of the earth. 44 has been a number the Lord has given me to mean transition into new season: There is a transition coming that will affect the whole world. After typing this, I now hear: “Get ready.”
WAR AND PROVISION
And I hear the Spirit saying: Storehouses are barren. Ramparts are broken. See the tide, see the tide, see the tide moving in. Don’t be found barren. Don’t be found broken when the tide rolls in. Be strong in Me, Destiny reborn. (sensed this is a reference to Hab. 3:17-19. The whole chapter – Habukuk 3 – echoes many words/themes in the above prophecy.)
I asked: What do You mean by “broken” Lord?
He said: There’s a harvest that is coming, and My army must be strong in Me and not broken by this world. For this world will break those it can, but you are to be strong in Me. “Respond.” (to My leading).
Heard ‘Isaiah 44:5’ – One will say, “I belong to the LORD’; another will call himself by the name of Jacob; still another will write on his hand, ‘The LORD’s,’ and will take the name Israel. (Note Isa. 44:1-5)
Look up, look up, look up O, Israel.
See the skies are calling the nations to war.
But you, pearl of My heart will abide in Me.
Look up, look up, look up, Destiny.
Look up, look up, look up to the skies.
My people, I’m bringing you in.
For when the world goes out, and the tidal wave comes,
Your destiny’s about to begin. Round about.
(A round about is a circular intersection – an island of land in the middle of a round street (one way) that encircles it. = land at the centre, activity of traffic surrounding it.)
I asked the Lord how to prepare and He simply said “Hide yourself in Me,” and that for those who do this the supply of heaven will match the lack of earth re. supplies. i.e. heavenly provision.
ISRAEL
Then He sang:
Tell the nation Israel. She’ll be stronger than ever before. For I am standing at the door and on her My Spirit will pour.
I am picking the flowers now, to put in her hair.
She’ll be adorned when the tide rolls in and I Myself draw near.
(Here I sensed He is literally choosing what flowers He will adorn her with on her
wedding day and these are being noted in heaven.)
Look up, look up, look up and see, the Lord is coming in destiny,
And you who weep will weep no more, for the Lord will set you free! (Isaiah 30:18-19)

FROM ELIJAH TO A GREATER GLORY
June 29, 2010 | Leave a Comment
PART ONE
INTRODUCTION
It was prophesied of John the Baptist: “He will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah…to make ready a people prepared for the Lord” (Luke 1:17). At the same time Malachi 4:5 states: “See, I will send you the prophet Elijah before that great and dreadful day of the LORD comes.” I believe we have been in a period of preparation in which the spirit of Elijah has been poured out, bringing about repentance and purification in the Lord’s consecrated ones. The fruit of that preparation is now going to manifest as restoration in such lives: “To be sure, Elijah does come first and restores all things” (Mark 9:12).
