Peter Wagner and Cindy Jacobs: 2010 ACPE Council's Word of the Lord for 2010

by C. Peter Wagner, Cindy Jacobs and more
Jan 21, 2010

This is the word given through a compilation of the prophetic releases and consensus of the ACPE. Some of the members include: Bishop Bill Hamon, Sam Brassfield, Harry Jackson, Rick Ridings, Greg Black, Will Ford, Mike Jacobs, Peter Wagner, Mary Glazier, Sharon Stone, Cindy Jacobs, John Sanford, Beth Alves, Gwen Shaw, and Doris Wagner.

There are differing variables that can affect the timing and/or coming to pass of these words:
1. All prophecy not contained in Scripture is conditional.
2. The timing of when the prophecy comes to pass may occur over a longer period of time than one calendar year. Some take many years to fulfill.
3. It is possible that prophetic warnings will cause either the person or nation to repent and so turn away the judgment prophesied. Biblically, this happened when Jonah prophesied to
Nineveh and the city repented, causing God to relent.

Key Scripture Passage for 2010:
"Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place." 2 Corinthians
2:14 

2010 is the year in which we will win. This is a year to triumph in Christ and diffuse the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

2010 is the year to wake up. It is time to wake up and see both what the enemy is trying to do and what God wants to do through us. This is a year when God will help us "see" in a supernatural way those things that we have felt like we could not understand.

The Year of the Wind
2010 will be a year of the wind. There is a new Pentecost about to be poured out upon His people who are hungering for more of Him. The wind of the Holy Spirit is going to blow us in the right direction and into the place that God wants us to be. We will see glorious manifestations of His divine power with signs and wonders.

Many nations will feel the impact of this mighty wind.
Indonesia will once again be swept over by the Holy Spirit, along with Thailand, Poland, North Korea, South Korea, and the United Kingdom. Alaska will see a move of the Holy Spirit among the Native Alaskans.

New wells of revival will break out and many will drink from the wells of salvation.
Many will teach on the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We are going to need to see them all function in the Church in this day to fulfill our mission.

We will see a special increase of the word of wisdom. The word of wisdom is supernatural insight into what to do that will secure our future. The manifestation of this gift will be such that from one moment to the next we will have the plan or "road-map" on what we are to do for our future.


Third Great Awakening
We believe that the outpouring of the Holy Spirit that came on
November 11, 2009, in Kansas City signaled the beginning of a Third Great Awakening that we prophesied would come to America and the world. November 11th was the day that the Pilgrims made covenant with God in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Many intercessors across the nation are crying out to God for the nation to once again become "a city set on a hill." If we continue to pray and call out to God, the nation will shift.

Evangelism
Many churches will wake up and evangelize the lost in their cities and nations. Thousands will be swept into the Kingdom through new "power evangelism" movements where people are supernaturally shown that God is real.
Churches who haven't baptized in years will begin to see many people come to Christ. Dead churches will become resurrected under the fire and power of the Holy Spirit's working and many lost will be swept into the
Kingdom of God.

Breaking Debt Cycles
Key Scripture passage:
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me
to preach the Gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed." Luke
4:18 

We felt that the Lord had given us an "eye of the storm" time period to get out of debt. In fact, as we discussed the many prophetic warnings about a second economic shaking, we felt that the Lord in His mercy had extended a period of grace to His people because many were not ready for another shaking.

Supernatural ability to get out of debt is being released. If you will start paying your debts, even in very small amounts, God will supernaturally get behind your efforts and help you get out of debt.

Eradication of Systemic Poverty
It is time to fulfill the first message that Jesus preached and bring justice to the poor. God spoke to us about social justice missionaries who are called to help eliminate systemic poverty. There is a marriage of righteousness and justice, and God will raise up those who are called to fight such issues as human trafficking as well as poverty.

The call will marry its mandate to win the lost to its justice mandate. Churches will begin to model taking care of the poor in their midst, as well as putting systems into place to help teach their people how to get out of debt.

Clash of Kingdoms
Just as the year before, the Lord spoke to us about the great "clash of kingdoms" taking place around the world—the
Kingdom of God and the empire-building spirit of Islam. Satan is on the march to build empires.

Be aware and watch and see what is around you. Home-grown terrorism will be on the rise. There is a move toward "civilization Jihad" around the globe in countries that have democratic rule.

Judgment and Testing
Key Scripture passage:
So Daniel said to the steward whom the chief of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, "Please test your servants for ten days, and let them give us vegetables to eat and water to drink. Then let our appearance be examined before you, and the appearance of the young men who eat the portion of the king's delicacies; and as you see fit, so deal with your servants."
So he consented with them in this matter, and tested them ten days. And at the end of ten days their features appeared better and fatter in flesh than all the young men who ate the portion of the king's delicacies. Daniel 1:11-16

Daniel and his friends were tested for 10 days, and then they had favor with the King. They were found to be 10 times better than the others. This will happen for those who are faithful to stand in times of testing. In the end, you will rise above all the others and advance.

Nehemiah
Ten times words were spoken to stop Nehemiah's work on the wall. Do not be intimidated by the seeming onslaught of the evil one. Finish the task that God has put before you. God spoke to us over and over in our meeting that we are not to be intimidated in the coming season of conflict and testing.

Worship Activism
Key Scripture passage:
"And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed those who should sing to the LORD, and who should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and were saying: "Praise the LORD, for His mercy endures forever."
Now when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated. For the people of Ammon and
Moab stood up against the inhabitants of Mount Seir to utterly kill and destroy them. And when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, they helped to destroy one another." 2 Chronicles 20:21-23 

We will win through worship. It is the key to triumph! There is a marriage of worship and activism taking place where, just as in the days of Martin Luther King, Jr., the Church will march and sing.
New battle hymns will be written along the lines of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic." His Truth is Marching On, and there is a call for biblical truth through worship.
Worship will break open the heavens, and young people will heed the call to be "musicianaries" and go to the ends of the earth to start 24/7 houses of worship.
Great joy will break out in the midst of worship as God "laughs" at His enemies through His people (Psalm 2, Psalm 149).

Great Conflict
For each Kingdom advance this year we will see the enemy "pushing back" and stirring up conflict around us. Do not be afraid of confrontation and conflict. Fight intimidation. Run toward the Goliaths in your life and remember that you are called to triumph in this year.


Activism will manifest as new armies of the Lord are being raised up. Find your place and let your voice be heard.

Over the next years in the United States there will be a new third political party that will arise. The Lord is preparing His leadership for this party that will come out of the citizens of the United States groaning under the corruption of the old guard. Many leaders are being tested and tried in the fire right now who will take leadership in due time, for it will begin not so much as a political party but a movement. The movement will become a party in time.

Season of Transition
This is a season of transition for the Body of Christ. For the
United States, it will be a time of transition for either good or evil. The nation is on the "cusp" of it remaining a civilization as we know it. It is up to this generation to see it go back to the original vision of our founders. A woman has to dilate to ten centimeters to give birth. The years 2010 and beyond will be a time of intense pressure, but will result in the birthing of many new things.


God is also going to rearrange His people for the coming days' work. There are some who will make sudden
geographic moves. Others will transition in their jobs and careers. There will be special grace poured out upon those who are obedient to allow God to reposition His troops. For those who are not making a move but are seeing people that you love make changes, God will also help you transition into this new season and send new help for you.


Transition into the new season, get your vision and house in order. Make sure that you are properly aligned for the new battles ahead.

Be Prepared
Key Scriptures passages:
Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins (Matthew 25:1-13)
Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14-30)


Rearrange and "right-size" for victories and breakthroughs. Become more focused in your core purpose. Live a simpler life. Do not "hoard" what another person can use. This is the time to share and take care of each other. Make sure that the Body of Christ can arise with the call of the Bridegroom, as the five virgins who were ready.

We must begin to think more as a community than simply individualistically. Put your house in order and arrange for the next season. Mobility is the key in the Kingdom today. Many that are not "right-sized" will see the loss of buildings, lands, etc. If this has happened to you, God will help you begin again.

There is a season of pruning for growth. The pruning can, and at times will, seem painful, but trust that God is working all things together for your good.

Bill Johnson on Todd Bentley's Meltdown

This is a tough post. I've posted several updates from the revival in Lakeland Florida where Todd Bentley had been ministering. Recently Todd has stopped those meetings and stepped down from ministry.

I've been struggling how to respond to these announcements, and then I got this announcement from Bill Johnson's ministry. This strikes me as a very healthy response.


Aug '08

A great tragedy has come to light this past week. Todd Bentley, the revivalist who has been leading the Lakeland Outpouring meetings, has had a major meltdown and has filed for divorce. This comes at the worst possible time both for the revival and for those who have stood with him.

Back in June, Che Ahn , John Arnott, and I went to Lakeland, Florida, to do a commissioning service [see here] for Todd. We felt the need to stand with him. Opposition against him was great, and we could be a great strength to Todd in that time. John and Che especially could be a great asset as they had endured incredible opposition during the Toronto outpouring. Peter Wagner helped to oversee and lead that part of the meeting. Although he had not personally endorsed the revival, he felt it important enough to risk personal criticism from his peers to bring Todd into an apostolic alignment for his own safety.

I did not go to Lakeland and stand on the platform with Todd Bentley because he was perfect in character or because we agreed with every aspect of how he conducted the revival in Lakeland. I went to Lakeland because of his enemies. The relentless criticism and opposition, coupled with the grueling and sometimes unwise schedule, were bound to take their toll on this young man — emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. It happened two years ago, and it could happen again. It was my intention to bring a deflection into the mix so that he wouldn't take all the heat by himself. Little did I realize it was too late. He was at the place of burnout again, abandoning his marriage and pulling out of all public ministry. While I will never blame Todd's opponents for Todd's bad choices (Todd alone is responsible for them) their opposition had a greater effect than any of his critics will likely own up to in this lifetime.

Now what? Pray for Todd and Shonnah for complete healing in their marriage and personal lives. Pray for those giving counsel to them that they would use great wisdom.

Please know that while we may not give details of our efforts, we are doing everything possible to help bring healing and order to this tragedy.

Blessings!
Bill

Note: this is the latest response (as of this posting) on the subject of Todd Bentley. A more thorough conversation is found on Bill's blog.

Lakeland Revival Apostolic Commissioning

By Shaaron Coleman, June 23, 2008

The meeting began with one-and-a-half hours of anointed worship by Michael Larson. The theme song of the night is SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD!

TODD BENTLEY:
Todd went to Concord, NC on June 19 for one night only to see what would happen if they took the revival out of Lakeland. So many people came they shut down the freeway for 12 miles and about 15,000 were turned away at the door. Todd will be in Lakeland for the summer but will be doing some more of these one-night only meetings in various states. God said that the anointing as it goes out of Lakeland will be greater than the anointing in Lakeland. We’ve heard about the “Jesus Woodstocks.” I believe it’s here!

God told Todd two things tonight:
1. For about 15 years, God has been building networks of ministries…these have dug the canals to prepare for the Glory! God will use the networks to bring in the harvest.

2. Children 12 and under are the emerging generation of revivalists! Some of the most powerful things that have happened in this revival are the young children sharing visions of heaven…five year olds are laying hands on the sick and they are being healed!

This is not about Todd Bentley or ANY of US. It’s about JESUS! We have stepped into GOD’S KAIROS TIME! We’re just the fruit of another man’s labor! Whole cities will come into revival. Todd saw in January 1999 over 100 healing revivals that would be burning simultaneously. God has showed him only 12 of those cities at this time. God says the other cities are still to be determined by who is the most hungry.

Don’t sit back and be entertained. Don’t be a spectator. Don’t miss the boat.

Todd’s team is working on getting verifications and video testimonies of many of the healings and miracles that have happened.

Psalm 2 proclaimed

The unity of the believers coming together has the weight to release the glory to take the nations. Only when streams and movements merge is there real apostolic weight to take over whole cities and nations! The healings and miracles in this revival have been amazing, but the one thing that is most important to me is the HIGH PRAISE…THE GLORY of GOD. The Glory of God is the only thing that can take cities and nations! RELEASE THE ANOINTING TO TAKE CITIES! It’s going to sweep through America. Release mantles to take whole nations! A Spirit of Revival is being injected tonight! BELIEVE FOR IT IN YOUR CITY TONIGHT!

REPEATED THE SONG: SHOW US YOUR GLORY

Who will be a steward? Who will lay everything else down and make room for a fresh anointing? God is digging so many wells, re-digging wells. I know one way you can have God visit you. You might have to steward the little coal God gives you until it explodes into a huge fire! It’s happening at Morningstar. John and Carol Arnott want it again in Toronto. Associate Bobby Sullivan is leading 5 revivals all over Ireland.

NBC news is coming in two days. As of tonight we are verifying our 27th Resurrection from the dead!

Tonight’s commissioning is very important. Bob Jones called and said, “Tonight the Poison stops.” Sometimes I feel like, God forgive me! I’m blowing up the world! (In a good way!)

KEN GRETER INTRODUCES DR. C. PETER WAGNER, who invites to the stage:
Todd Bentley, Abbotsford, BC
Che Ahn, Pasadena
Bill Johnson, Redding
John Arnott, Toronto
and
Stephen Strader, Florida
Carl Strader, Florida
Jeff Beecham, Sydney Australia
Rick Joyner, South Carolina
Doris Wagner, Colorado
Sharon Stone, England
? Garcia, Spain
Clarice ?, Louisiana
Richard Maiden, Arizona
Mike Maiden, Arizona
Joshua Fowler, Florida
Barry Bouchet, Canada

Dr. Wagner invited the Holy Spirit’s power and direction. This is a ceremony to commission the apostolic alignment of Todd Bentley. He read Ephesians 4 regarding the five-fold ministry for purpose of equipping of the saints. Equipping means alignment…such as setting a bone! Spoke of biblical apostolic relationships such as that of Paul and Timothy.

Dr. Wagner asked Bill Johnson, Che Ahn and John Arnott if they recognized God in what is happening through Todd’s ministry. Yes! He then asked Todd if he recognized the apostolic authority of the three men? Yes! With that we will move to the commissioning. I decree to Todd Bentley, your power, authority, influence, revelation will increase! I also decree that a new life force will flow through this ministry. Increase of discernment!

CHE AHN – Asked forgiveness for lateness…airplane held up. Bob Jones prophesied Is. 22:22 that you would go to a whole new level on June 22, and here we are just one day later. It is significant that we have three generations of apostles here. I recognize that God has chosen and appointed you to bear much fruit. He has called you as an evangelist and a revivalist…we as your brothers and your friends are here to stand with you and Shonnah and your ministry. Chuck Pierce is in Africa – he sent this special oil to anoint you! (Huge power blast…Todd hits the floor…the whole place is electric!)

JOHN ARNOTT – We love you and what is happening here. You are leading an amazing charge. Multitudes are getting behind you! We bless this charge in the name of Jesus, and we stand with you.

BILL JOHNSON – When David wanted Uriah killed he sent him into battle and withdrew, we will not do that. Tonight we are shaping the course of history! I pray that Moses that no longer be considered the high water mark because he talked to God face to face, but that the world we see the Glory that is on you!

PROPHETIC WORDS FROM THE OTHER APOSTOLIC MINISTRIES:
You have loosed a kingly anointing to bring forth wealth and governmental power.

On behalf of New Zealand, Australia and America I speak favor for you in all those nations, may you be blessed. May the report be great and mighty!

Years from now people will look at this time and remember it as the time God showed up! I will bring forth that which is new, that which is pure. This is the heart that I will not despise…the one that cries “I can’t live without your presence! No program will be a substitute.” History will measure it by HEART, says the Lord.

As a Spaniard, we welcome this revival to the whole Spanish-speaking world!

Behold the vanguard that is cutting through the ice of religious traditions! Behind you is a great ship fit for battle! Arise, kill and eat young man! No longer will men call unclean what I have called clean!

Rick Joyner – God has sent you as an antidote for the lukewarm spirit. You have unstopped the well here…there are more wells to unstop...oil wells that will catch on fire!

The Lord has made you a detonator. Great Britain will be set ablaze. There is a Portal Anointing over whatever city you enter! Boom, Boom, Boom, you will detonate!

I see the word HONOR is written over you tonight. You have blessed us and we honor you, and affirm that the rest of HONOR that is upon you will follow you into all the nations.

Stacey Campbell: Moses said, Show me your Glory! This was the pinnacle of Moses life. This came after the deliverance from Egypt, the giving of the law, after eating with God and the 70 elders. In this pinnacle prayer he had to hide Moses in the cleft of the rock and only show him his hinder parts. The Lord God is merciful, compassionate, gracious and abounding in truth…forgiving transgression. When we were singing that song tonight, TODD, I heard, “Because you have asked what very few men on the earth have asked, to see my GLORY, I will move beyond revival.” AND JESUS, FILLED WITH JUSTICE AND TRUTH SAID, LET HE WHO IS WITHOUT SIN CAST THE FIRST STONE! Todd, I have chosen you BECAUSE OF YOUR BACKGROUND to release my nature! I will use you to father a movement that operates in such power…that a whole generation will move in such signs and wonders and power that people will give glory to God! When you were 12, God started to speak to me about a generation of nation changers that will release the Glory of God in all its fullness. YOU are the First Fruits of those nation changers!

GEORGIAN BANOV – We give you the keys to Eastern Europe. Abba says you are a well pleasing son. Dad is releasing his pleasure on you…like the pleasure he took on his son who bore our sins. (Then Jim called so I missed the second thing! I chewed him out though, in love! Smile.)

CHE AHN – Shonnah called up to stand with Todd. John 17 is being fulfilled tonight and on the earth in these days. We seal this commissioning with this ring. I am reminded of Paul saying, “A door has opened up for me in Ephesus…amidst great opposition.” Everyone, please lift up Todd and Shonnah and Fresh Fire Ministries. We are standing with you in this revival!

TODD BENTLEY
I thank God tonight for all the leaders and friends and apostles who have come to stand with us. What God is doing on the earth today is about TEAM. It’s about UNITY. Also want to give honor to my senior leadership team and our board of directors. (Called up on stage.) I received a prophetic word in April that through this revival God would establish GOVERNMENT, and that what happens here wouldn’t stop. Now I realize that this is the fulfillment of Is. 22:22 – revival of the GOVERNMENT OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD! Let’s stand and cry out for the Glory of the Lord! Something was just released in apostolic authority. I want to give all the Glory back to Jesus. Let’s open the altars and worship HIM.

God, I pray that you would UNCAP EVERY WELL OF REVIVAL. God is looking for those will steward this revival. I bless every PASTOR, every LEADER, every HARVESTER, and I release the anointing.

TODD ASKED the leaders to pray for the people gathered in Lakeland and by TV:

JOHN ARNOTT: I can see that passion on your faces! This is not HYPE, this is the KINGDOM of GOD! If there’s anything to be excited about it’s revival. Fear not, little flock, it is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom!

BILL JOHNSON: I’m going to release a Spirit of Wisdom and Revelation on you. God, I pray for tens of thousands of Revivalists who have Wisdom and Revelation about how you move, that we might not grieve or quench, but that we might be tools in your hands!

CHE AHN: Where there is UNITY, God commands a blessing (PSALM 133) of LIFE FOREVERMORE! I see thousands of Todd Bentleys! God is raising up an army of saints…of revivalists! You are the temple of the Holy Spirit! We claim that Psalm 133 anointing. Right now I break the power division over many people…of divorce…the spirit of infirmity…the spirit of poverty…generational curses.

Todd called for his associates (Matt Sorger, Kira Mitcell, Trevor Baker, etc.) to receive this blessing.

CAROL ARNOTT: Gave a Mother’s blessing. You are a nurturing God. I bless them to be sons and daughters of the Most High God. I ask that you lift off everything of abandonment, of abuse, as they put their hands in yours. I pray for blessing upon blessing!

TODD: The new wine is found in the cluster. I want to honor the ministers who came here tonight by inviting them to receive impartation of what God is pouring out here. This anointing is CROSS POLLINATING right now! There are so many denominations, movements and networks represented here! Michael, sing SHOW US YOUR GLORY once again!

TODD: I have been invited by all the leaders of the Argentine Revival to come and release what is happening in Lakeland there. God, release your Glory among all the Spanish-speaking people of the world. MIAMI! VENEZUALA! Every Latin American Country…receive this anointing!

Stacy Campbell said she is going soon to minister to the equivalent of the Brazilian White House…lots of important Government leaders will be there.


NOTES TAKEN “ON THE FLY” FROM THE LAKELAND REVIVAL APOSTOLIC COMMISSIONING CEREMONY
from Shaaron Coleman, June 23, 2008

Note: This commissioning and the relationships forged here appear to address some of the public and/or mainstream concerns about this revival.

ACPE's Word for 2005: GOD WILL LEVEL MOUNTAINS (excerpts)

Plus Word for Colorado, California, and Oregon
by the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders

We are moving into a season of tremendous revelation. There will be an increase upon the revelatory gifts mixed with the teaching gift in order to release keys to see nations reformed and transformed.

WORDS FOR SPECIFIC NATIONS

United States

The United States has been saved from those who would remove God from its borders, but now the nation must be established. There is a four-year window for the intercessors to war for the establishment of morality and righteousness. God is going to raise up a president in 2008 who will reconcile the nations to the United States. Bush has been called to be a man of war, like David, but God is bringing a Solomon to the office in '08 who will make peace with the nations.

STATES

Colorado

Colorado is going to see the beginnings of the "unlocking" of treasures of darkness from the mines. New veins of ore and minerals will be discovered in the ground that have been hidden until this season.

California

A dream was given to one of the prophets in November, 2004, that everything began to fall apart in California. In the dream, he was helping to put Christmas ornaments back on the tree. He knew then that he should warn the people that mudslides would come, weather patterns would change drastically (with snow), and an earthquake would come at some time after these drastic weather pattern shifts; and there would be a flood in Los Angeles and then a fire.

Several of the prophets had received that this was a judgment due to the vote to use stem cells for research that was passed in the last election. The word was that they needed to re-align their gifts, or else the whole nation would be changed by the Jezebel spirit that will arise out of California and try to pass similar votes in the rest of the nation. As a result, we are calling for massive prayer for Schwarzenegger. We strongly felt that the intercessors need to go for the ancient roots to heal the land of California.

Oregon

Oregon will see the ruling governmental structure, along with its influence and liberalism, fall. This will cause structures that are hidden, that are terrorist groups, beginning in 2005, to be exposed. Watch for physical shakings in the natural so spiritual change can come.
