The Expo of Heaven

During our last gathering here in Yakima Washington, I found myself caught up in a very intense revelatory realm of the Spirit. It was one of those times when you just speak what you are hearing and seeing by the Spirit as it is being revealed to you. I remember thinking; can they hear what I am hearing? Can they see what I am seeing? Can they feel the presence of this realm in their midst, or is it just me? Now obviously, because of the response of the people in that moment, and the emails I have received since then, there were many who undoubtedly had encountered a powerful change in the atmosphere. An intense weight of glory appeared in the room. Yet, I knew the people there could not hear what I was hearing. I remember feeling a sense of frustration, because I wanted everyone to experience the full impact of what was happening to me. This is not to belittle what others were hearing God say to them, but I knew I had been invited to a room where the strategy of the Lord was being discussed amongst angelic beings, so you can imagine my eagerness for an open invitation toward everyone present.
It appeared to be a building the size of an indoor coliseum with hundreds of u-shaped sections. There were groups of angels at each section or cubicle. I know this sounds crazy, but it was like a heavenly expo. I use the word “expo” because of the idea of something revealed or made available. It wasn't a display of things, but knowledge. Some would even term it as a war room. These u-shaped areas were scattered from one end of the building to the other. As I listened I could hear angels discussing various activities about the people of God on earth. Mind you, I was there, but I was not there. However, I knew the Lord had invited me to listen in on these groups as they discussed a variety of subjects and topics that pertained to the intentions of God on earth.

Some talked about how the frustrations of life were causing many people to fight against the plans of God for their lives. They were strategizing about how to get them to stop resisting God and surrender to the work of heaven that was being formed in them. They brought to light the reasons for some of their frustration. They discussed the different perversions of thinking. They said the likes and dislikes of God had become perverted in the minds of the people. They indentified a spirit of perversion that had seduced countless people into believing that a lot of their entertainment was ok, when in fact, it was not. They spoke of a powerful veil that would soon be lifted from people’s minds, enabling them to see things as they really are. (I will speak about this in more detail at a later date)

OCEAN TIDES

Another group was discussing the tides of the ocean. During their discussion, I could see tides going in and out. They talked about how these tides were taking out an old order, the order of man, and bringing in a new order, the order of heaven. While I was thinking that these tides were going to destroy a people that were part of an old order, without looking in my direction, I heard an angel say, “The purpose of our Lord is to destroy an old order without destroying the people who are out of order.” I suddenly felt the impact of his words and realized how important it was to fully understanding the intentions of God toward His people. They continued to discuss how the people, who were part of the old order, were being drawn out into deeper waters to give them opportunity to conform to a new life in the Spirit.

Their discussion went from spiritual tides to natural tides of the oceans waters. They spoke about a future change of the ocean tides, and that the changes of tides were directly related to the change in the spiritual climate. As they were speaking I could feel the salty air and I had a strong sense that it was happening right then. They also talked about a great number of people becoming more aware of the effects the kingdom of God was having on earth. I have to say; in moments like these, revelation, the knowledge of God, is one of the most intense highs I have ever known. There were times when I was so pressed with the knowledge of the Lord that my entire being felt like it was going to explode into oblivion. What is even more wild, I didn’t care, I even welcomed it. Yes! Come on God!

Let me remind you that most of what I am writing now, I spoke aloud at the moment it happened. I gave a moment-by-moment report as it occurred.

ROTATIONS

There were also discussions about different kinds of rotations, kingdom rotations that had been set into motion. Some rotations were in reference to earth, space, and the unique alignments that would occur because of these divine rotating sequences. Other rotations pertained to governmental leaders, some of which have been referred to as the “changing of the guard.” I want to emphasis the word “rotation” because when I heard this word it was highlighted around the earth. Whenever I see things like this, I know the common expression or meaning is about to be redefined.

This information quickly brought to mind the previous words the Lord had given to me about the rotation of the earth and the unusual alignments that would occur because of these shifts in the earth. This is happening right now. I can’t wait for you read about the recent activity that has caused an unusual alignment to occur in the cosmos.

HE IS GOING TO CATCH YOU BY SURPRISE

It is so interesting how the residue of that experience is still on me now. I must confess that this experience caught me by surprise. I was actually struggling a bit in worship when all of a sudden, the Spirit of the Lord came upon me, and there I was. In fact, there were other distractions going on in the room when this spiritual realm opened up. I think it is important to make note of this. We often think that God can only do what He wants do when everything is just right. Ha! I love it! I hope this is an encouragement to many of you reading this. You might feel like your life is on hold. You might be thinking that you have become numb to the movement of the Spirit. Maybe you are just overwhelmed with work and the cares of life. I have some great news for you. Just give Him your attention right where you are at, no matter what you are feeling, and He will catch you by surprise. This, He loves to do. ☺

It’s not uncommon to get caught up in the spirit while the people around you experience some of what you are experiencing, but not all of it. Will they know something is happening? Oh yeah, but they might now know exactly what is happening.

For example, when Paul was on his journey to Damascus to bring Christians back to Jerusalem to be punished for their crimes of faith, he had a life changing experience with the Lord. The Lord definitely caught him by surprise.

Paul writes:

"Now it happened, as I journeyed and came near Damascus at about noon, suddenly a great light from heaven shone around me. I fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to me, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?' Therefore, I answered, 'Who are You, Lord?' Moreover, He said to me, 'I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom you are persecuting.' "And those who were with me indeed saw the light and were afraid, but they did not hear the voice of Him who spoke to me.” (Acts 22:6-10)

The original translation does not quote the phrase, “and they were afraid.” It was added for greater readability. It just says, “And they saw the light.”However, notice how the others with him were impacted by the glory and power of God, even though they did not hear what God was speaking to Paul.

Later on Paul describes his experience to King Agrippa in this manner:

“I saw a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who journeyed with me. And when we all had fallen to the ground, I heard a voice speaking to me and saying in the Hebrew language… (Acts 26:13-14)

Let me express that the unseen realm is for anyone who desires to encounter more of God. The heart of God is for His people to see what the world cannot see, so they too will believe and enter in.

TOPICS AND SUBJECTS

Another strategy being discussed was a plan to the turn the topics of our nation completely around. In other words, much of our nation and the world are governed by the topics of politics, war, death, and economics, just to name a few. However, a great plan has been devised to take the focus of this nation and other nations across the world, off certain issues that have entrenched the people of God into rut of mundane knowledge. God is about to unveil some glorious revelation in the earth so great, that it will force the media to focus on new things, wonderful things, things that are right, not just things that are wrong. The invisible is about to become visible in ways unimaginable. As I listened to this kingdom discussion, my heart leaped with great expectations. I was especially intrigued by the ways and methods that God was going to use to bring this to pass. I will share these things in more detail in the near future.

A NEW CURRENCY

Also, keep your eyes and ears on what they are currently saying about the US dollar. The Lord gave me a very specific word a couple years back about a new currency in this nation, and how it would increase the value of the dollar, not lessen it. We will be posting that word on our site to refresh your memory as to what God said, so you can be greater equipped with the purpose of God for this nation concerning this matter.

In this article, I just gave you a peek into what the Lord revealed to me. I am so excited to share more with you about the many other things that he showed me through this experience.

Video: Dutch Sheets: Bay of the Holy Spirit: Revival in the Northwest

Recently, we posted some notes from Dutch Sheet's recent message at the Bay of the Holy Spirit revival. In this message, Dutch makes some declarations about revival in several regions, including the Pacific Northwest. This is a message that he's carrying; I am told that much of this message is the same as he recently released in Washington State.
This is his entire message. The original video of the entire service, in full resolution, is found
here.

ACPE Word of the Lord 2011


I neglected to post this in season; I was reminded recently of its relevance. 


January 19, 2011

General Announcements, Prophetic News, Prophetic Words, USRPN Newsletters


Each year, the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders (ACPE) meets to seek the Lord for the prophetic word. This is a team of respected prophets who have the conviction that they are an Acts 13:1-3 model. This passage notes that it was the Holy Spirit giving the word as a consensus among the group and not just to one prophet. So, even though this is a compilation of the prophecies that we have each brought to the round table meeting, it was the general consensus of the ACPE members that the Holy Spirit was speaking the following prophetic words to us.

The ACPE has met now since 1999. This year, for the first time, we invited a group of emerging young leaders to join us. As a result, we probably had the most powerful time of seeking the Lord that we have ever known. At the end of the meeting, a time of impartation took place.

While we are calling this a prophecy for 2011, it is to be understood that the time frames for the fulfillment of prophecies cannot only be confined to a calendar year period, thus this constitutes more of a seasonal prophetic word.

It is also a given that, in some cases, the obedience of the people to respond can either delay, change, or alter what we have seen by the Spirit during this time.

The Year of Transitions
This will either be a year of open heavens or a year of the perfect storm.

The number 11 has the biblical meaning of transitions. 2011 is the year where we are transitioning from one place to another. Where we will end up at the end of this time depends, in many regards, on how we respond to the leading of the Holy Spirit.

2011 will be a year of great pressure and stress, particularly, the first three months when it will seem as if we are in a toe-to-toe battle with the forces of evil.

This is a Tipping Point Year
If, in the middle of the pressure of the season, we faint and lose heart, the scale will tip away from us and there is a possibility of great loss and defeat.

The Year of the Straits
The number 11 can be likened to places in the earth such as the Straits of Gibraltar between Spain and Morocco. We will, at times, feel constricted, but the narrowing of the way will only cause us to go to the new place that God has for us in the season if we do not fail the test during the pressure.

The Birth Canal
Another analogy that the Lord gave us was the number 11 is like a birth canal. The baby being born is going from the comfort of the womb to the stress and discomfort of being born into a new, large life.

Dreaming Dreams
Joseph shared his dreams with his 11 brothers; represented by 11 stars in Genesis 37:9 and it caused great relational stress. God will pour out a season of dreams and visions this year even among the very young. Watch out for relational stress and keep your heart right in the middle of it.

The Year of Great Expectations
Expect the unexpected in this coming year.

Hebrews 11:11 is key:
â€Å“By faith, Sarah herself also received strength to conceive seed, and she bore a child when she was past the age, because she judged Him faithful who had promised.”

Expect a miracle! God wants to break the barrenness in your life of hope deferred. Many have given up on their dreams and downsized what they believe for because of the times. God̢۪s Kingdom is an ever-increasing Kingdom and He is for advance and not retreat.

This is not a time to compromise what God has said to you, but rather to believe that all things are possible. God is not a man that He would lie. If He said he would do something, He has not changed His mind.

A Time of Preparation, Going Deeper into God and Intimacy
New assignments will be passed out in this year of transition for those who do not draw back in the season of testing and fire. Go deeper in God and draw refreshing from His presence and you will make it to your new place of advancement and anointing.

Proverbs 20:5:
â€Å“Knowing what is right is like deep water in the heart; a wise person draws from the well within.”

Creative Miracles
The level of the miraculous will increase with the Creator loosing miracles of creation that will directly oppose the spirits of humanism and intellectualism.

The Restoration of the Tabernacle of David
Great emphasis will be upon worship again this year. Worship is the key! Many new 24-hour houses of worship will spring up across the world and result in an open heaven over nations and many souls saved. It is harvest time!

Acts 15:16-17:
â€Å“After this I will return and will rebuild the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will set it up; So that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord, even all the Gentiles who are called by My Name, says the Lord who does all things.”

Great Harvest of those in the Arts/Entertainment Field
Extraordinary moves of God will occur in the entertainment and motion picture industry. Bold, new, unashamed voices will arise and many will listen to their testimonies.

Word for the United States
The nation hangs in the balance and this is not a time to grow weary of praying and acting on behalf of righteousness and justice. Don̢۪t let the pressure of the season cause you to retreat into entertainment rather than standing on top of what is happening around you.

We must watch for terrorist attacks as many are having dreams and visions of coming attacks.

One of the illustrations given to us was the phrase, â€Å“Are you ready to rumble?” This is used among wrestling aficionados as the match begins. It does more than alert the contestants that the match will start; it also creates an excited expectation in the crowd. God is asking the Christians in America today, â€Å“Are you ready to rumble?” The game is at hand and there needs to be a climax of excitement as we anticipate God’s next move in the land.

2011 is one of the most critical years in the nation’s history and the foundations are burning and are in danger of being destroyed. We must fast and pray and take extraordinary measures to â€Å“rumble” both the heavens and the earth.

The Eleventh Hour 11-11-11
This date will have a special significance in this â€Å“eleventh hour” time frame.

John 11:11 says:
â€Å“Lazarus our friend has fallen asleep, but I go that I may awaken him from slumber.”

The Mayflower Compact was signed on 11-11, 1620 and God is looking for a new generation of reformers who will make a covenant with God and others to stand and fight to awaken this nation in this dire moment of history.

Proverbs 11:11:
â€Å“By the blessing of the upright the city is exalted, But it is overthrown by the mouth of the wicked.”

World
There is a worldwide student-led volunteer movement being birthed across the face of the earth. Satan is going to try and start wars such as he did when the first student volunteer movement started around the turn of the 20th century. World War I effectually shut down the movement as students went to war at times against each other. We must pray against the starting of a third world war, as Satan wants to escalate world events for His purposes.

Psalms 110:3:
â€Å“In the day of Your power your youth shall be volunteers.”

Korea
Particular prayer needs to take place for Korea as one of the greatest missions movements is destined to come out of this nation that will go to the ends of the earth.

We also strongly felt that President Lee should stand firm against North Korea̢۪s aggression.

Middle East
A more widespread persecution will arise against the believers if we do not begin to intercede for the Middle East. However, there will be a move of God of the youth in nations such as Syria, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia who will not love their lives unto death.

Economy
We must intercede against hyperinflation that will strangle the ability of people of give to world missions.

Intellectual Properties
A great release of new wealth will come from ideas given from God in the form of intellectual properties. A new creative anointing of ideas for those who will use the wealth for the advancement of God̢۪s Kingdom.

Children
We are on the verge of a great Children̢۪s Awakening that will span the globe. Child evangelists will begin to preach in churches and large arenas and thousand will be saved and healed.
