Northwest Prayer Assignment, 2015

Report for April/May of 2015

By Rachel Hickson and her team.

  

INTRODUCTION

In November 2014, as Rachel was preaching at Destiny Life Center, the Holy Spirit spoke to her and reminded her of her mandate to pray “from Washington to Washington.”  For several years Rachel and various team members have gathered in Washington DC to pray, but now we feel there is a shift in the spirit and it is time to stir the Northwest and Washington State. 

Again and again Rachel has been impacted by the number of people who were stirred to pray for a spiritual awakening in the Northwest as a result of the Northwest Intercessors conference held in Portland during the 1990’s. Many times people have said those times of prayer changed their life. So at the end of last year Rachel felt God challenge her to call the remnant of prayer warriors who love the Northwest and begin to pray specifically for this area of America again. Ahead of the election year we need to cry out to God and see an awakening of the government of Jesus in the Northwest!

The purpose of our Prayer Strike was threefold:

1. To reestablish right lines of government and order in the state.
2. To unlock the pioneer spirit of the Northwest: we visited areas where the origins of the spiritual life of the Northwest were forged, where commerce was born, and the birthplace of the significant cities of the Northwest region.
3. To awaken the right spiritual atmosphere over the Northwest.

The scripture God quickened to Rachel was from II Samuel 11:1 “In the spring, at the time when kings go off to war, David sent Joab out with the king’s men and the whole Israelite army. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah. But David remained in Jerusalem.”

OUTLINE OF PRAYER DAYS

On April 25, 2015, the Strike began as Rachel and Helen and several members of Rainier Hills Christian Center visited a monument erected to commemorate a place of injustice during the Indian War fought in 1855 at Connell’s Prairie, 6 miles west of Buckley. Rachel represented the British army officers as Gordon’s family has a strong history of military service in the British army.  They prayed to cleanse the land of bloodshed and injustice, and declared a new covenant of God over this area.  It was discovered that after this conflict, many of the Native American tribes moved to Alki Point and thus founded the city of Seattle, where we were planning to pray later in the week.

Monday, April 27, a team of 14 seasoned intercessors gathered in Bellevue to strategize and plan the Prayer Strike over the Northwest region. We prayed and took communion together and we then discussed and identified the key areas that should be our prayer focus for this time.  We dedicated oil, salt and wine as spiritual tools that we would use in our prayer journey to establish cleansing, represent the anointing of God and God’s covenant blood. 

We felt God saying that He wanted to release a new sound in the region, and realized that the word “Bell” kept coming up.  Our first meeting was in BELLvue, our second day in BELLingham and our third day in BELLtown.  As we prayed in Spokane on the fourth day, we were gathered around the Clock/BELL tower and it began to strike the chimes for 11 AM.  On our last day, as we prayed at the monument erected to commemorate the birthplace of Seattle, one of the women listed had the surname BELL.  Many times as we prayed throughout the week, we heard bells or chimes ringing, almost as if God was endorsing our prayer.

Some of the key senses that we felt as a team were that Washington State is at a pivotal point in history. This area of the Northwest has been called to pioneer and be the Northwest cornerstone for the nation. We prayed that there would be a turnaround beginning in the west and moving to the east.  We prayed - let them pioneer to bring the glory and establishment of God rather than the liberal ways. Many prophetic words spoken over the last two decades have spoken of God’s glory falling in the Northwest and then moving to the east of our nation.  Chuck Pierce prophesied that this is a whirlwind state. JH heard the words “Appoint and Disappoint” and shared that God is looking for whistle blowers who will pay the price.  RZ heard the words “tuning fork”, bringing a new sound of resonance with God, and “pruning” - a cutting back to bring a more healthy harvest.

On Tuesday, April 28, the team met at Light of the World Prayer Center in Bellingham.  We drove to the Peace Arch and had an amazing time of prayer disconnecting the old covenants of bloodshed. We began declaring the covenant of God over this strategic border. We particularly prayed for the border to be protected from every malicious spirit wanting to cause harm to America. We secured the boundaries in the spirit as we stood in the gates.  JH had a stone taken from the land of the Lummi Tribe and as he held it, we anointed it with oil, wine and corn (Hosea 2:22), prayed a blessing and placed it as a representative of the true cornerstone, Jesus, to establish a new covenant in that region.  

Then we split into two teams: one team went to the Fairhaven district, where prostitution and human trafficking has been a long-standing stronghold.  We prayed to break those chains.  We also prayed at the location of a home held by the Masonic Lodge, which was reportedly being sold to an Islamic organization.  We prayed that those ungodly contracts would be broken and that land be used for God’s purposes.

A second team went up to the Sehome tower over the WWU campus and prayed for revival to come to this generation of students.  Each time we prayed to release a new sound, a train nearby would blow its whistle!  AMEN!

We concluded the day at the Light of the World Center in prayer.  HA declared, in Arabic, a blessing over the US and Israel in a powerful demonstration with the Israeli flag and the US flag.   Many prophetic words were released and an atmosphere of great joy was present.

On Wednesday, April 29, the team gathered in Belltown and walked up to the Gates Foundation.  On our way, we had a significant prayer time at the Memorial Stadium, where in 1951 and 1962 Billy Graham held great crusades.  Rachel saw the names of some servicemen who had been lost in war written on the wall, and just saw them representing the names of many who would get saved in this generation.   NC led us to a Board Room at the Gates Foundation and we were privileged to hear about the work being done to feed and bring healthcare to needy nations and people groups.  Then, once again, we split up into smaller groups to strike various locations in the city.

One group went to the Columbia Tower observatory, 73 stories up, which is the highest place in the city.  From there we were able to see many strategic communities and landmarks and pray for revival, declare the covenant of God, and call in God’s heart for the city. 

Another team went to the waterfront and prayed for the cleansing of the waters, removal of the atmosphere of suicide and depression from downtown Seattle and for the godly influence of Seattle to the nations from the city.  They also went up to the top of the Space Needle.   Rachel had had a word as she prayed earlier in the day that God was leading us back to the same point but at a different level of influence and authority; that although we may feel we are going round and round in circles we are shifting and changing our geography. As we walked up the Space needle suddenly this word had a perfect illustration, as each time we walked around the entrance of the Space Needle we came back to the same point and same view of the city but at a higher elevation and the perspective changed.  God spoke to us that even though it seems we have come around to the same place as we have prayed before, we need to have a new perspective because we are at a higher level.

A third team went to the City Hall and prayed at the Mayor’s office, even as the city council was meeting.

We concluded the day with a divine appointment at St Luke’s Episcopal Church in Ballard.   This is where the charismatic movement really began with Dennis Bennett in the 1960’s.  We met with their current priest, Canon Brit Olson, who had just 2 months earlier taken this parish in a “Big Yes” response to God who asked her to move there.  She shared how she has been prayer walking the community, how desperate the need is to help restore this sanctuary and how they feed over 1,000 meals every month to the homeless.  Brit took us to the old historic chapel and as we sang in the Spirit, we soaked in God’s presence there.  We were able to bless Brit with some cash and know that this was a divine appointment from God.

On Thursday, April 30, Rachel, Helen and Glenda flew to Spokane to prayer strike on the east side of the state.  Rachel shared the prophetic and biblical significance of the east gate.  Pastors Barry and Kay Hill met us with several other pastors from the area.  We walked the university district, where there are now 6 universities all sharing this area.  Even the flags were declaring to “think big” and so we declared all over that campus that God would make Himself known to the students.  We had a particularly powerful prayer time in a gazebo that had blades on top of it that whirled in the wind.  As we prayed for the wind of God, the wind in the natural began to blow.

We then went to pray at the birthplace of Spokane, also the site of the 1974 World’s Fair.    As we prayed, the clock tower began to strike the hour of 11 AM with loud chimes. The bells rang for 12 minutes, as least three different bells in the city each after one another and the time was not on the hour – it was 11:16 when the last bell started chiming! Rachel shared how it may seem we are at the same location as we have prayed before, but God has elevated us to a new position for better perspective.   We then walked to the City Hall, where we were given opportunity to pray in the council chambers for the government and governing officials of the city.    Helen shared a word she had prepared regarding the 6 cities of refuge in Israel and how the original meaning of each city’s name had significance for Spokane as a city of refuge. 

Thursday evening we concluded the day with a powerful service at Victory Faith Fellowship with Pastors Craig and Moni Lotze.  The worship was powerful and there was electricity in the air as Rachel shared a message of giving a “Big Yes” to God and “Bold No” to those things that are not giving Him glory.  Many people came forward for prayer and it was a glorious time in the presence of God.  We know that sovereign Kingdom connections were made in this strategic time.

Friday, May 1, we flew back to Seattle and stopped at the Birthplace of Seattle monument on Alki Beach.  There were 5 women on our team and, significantly, 5 women listed on this monument; one of them was called Sarah BELL. Again the new sound of bells was ringing!

Then a team of 9 women met on the Interstate 90 bridge.  This is the only highway that stretches from the west coast to the east coast, so it is a significant roadway.  We prayed for God’s glory to go from Washington, to Washington DC to Jerusalem!    The team concluded at the Jewish synagogue on Mercer Island, calling God’s people back to salvation and to the knowledge of their heritage.  We broke any assignments to attack the Jewish people and blessed Israel and those of Jewish heritage. 

The glorious conclusion of the day was our first Northwest Regional Prayer Meeting held at Sonrise Christian Center in Everett.  There was a full house and you could sense the excitement as intercessors came together from all over the region to pray.   It was like a reunion as many greeted each other after long absences.  Rachel again preached a powerful message, calling the intercessors back to a life of prayer (you can listen to the message here).  The altars were completely filled with men and women crying out to God, recommitting themselves to pray.

TESTIMONIES

Heard from some inside sources (key believer who works at the border) that a few days after we prayed they discovered and shut down an Isis training cell in Canada just eight miles from the border.

So that is an overview of the time of prayer we had for the Northwest part of this amazing nation called America. During this time the UK elections were held and everyone expected these elections to have no clear outcome and lead to a time of compromised government for Britain. But God did a miracle and against all the odds we have a clear leader and secure government. All the media called it a miracle TURNAROUND – I believe that as we enter 2016 we need to see a turnaround for the American people too.

Let it be, God – establish your Kingdom!

There is a Convergence Coming – Cal Pierce

God is preparing us to move beyond where we have ever been. We are moving into a revolution of revelation. The things of the kingdom of God are beginning to converge on believers who make a determination to walk completely in the Holy Spirit. This is the beginning of the great last awakening. The word that we read will become the Word that we live.

 

Some time ago I asked the Holy Spirit why God only gave us the use of 10% of our brain. He had a simple answer that blew me away. He said, “The 10% is your tithe. When you sow it into the kingdom, it releases the 90%, which is the mind of Christ, that will come back to you.”

 

I knew that there was something to this but I didn’t have the full revelation of it until I saw an advertisement for a movie called Lucy. The movie is about a girl who had drugs put in her body for transportation to the US. The drugs leaked out and began to cause her brain capacity to move beyond 10%, toward 100%. As this happened she became more supernatural in her ability to function on earth.

 

I believe this is a prophetic picture of what is coming to believers as they receive the revelation of how to live beyond the 10% brain capacity to the fullness that is available with the mind of Christ.

 

In Romans 12, verse 2, it says, “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”

 

The renewed mind is the mind of Christ. Your mind is the 10%, His mind is the 90%.

 

Jesus said we would do greater works than He did. (John 14:12) We wondered how would this happen? If we think about it, the 10% that we have is for operation or to live in the world by sight. The 90% is the mind of Christ that activates revelation for transformation. The Holy Spirit is our teacher who leads us into all that the Father has said. The 10% moves us by sight, the 90% moves us by hearing what the Spirit is saying. The 10%, or natural man, cannot understand spiritual things because they are spiritually discerned. By moving beyond the 10% we begin to access the things of the kingdom of God that are available to us. As we do this we will experience things which “eye has not seen nor our ear has heard. All that God has prepared for those who love Him.” (I Cor 2:9)

 

Notice that the renewed mind is to prove what this will of God is. Jesus did what He saw the Father doing. We will do greater works with the mind of Christ as we prove on earth the will of God. The kingdom that is within us is activated as we allow the Holy Spirit to move us beyond our 10% into His 90% capacity. Our 10% mind walks by sight in the natural realm so that we will see where to apply the 90% that comes from the kingdom of God. It is here that we will have a demonstration of power take place that will change a world.

 

 

Spokane Portal Moved, Resurrection Outpouring To Begin In Seattle

[Editor’s note: this is not a normal word for the region, but this is not a normal season we’re in, either. I see this as either two words, or a tag-team word, from Jeff Jansen ]

Friday May 16th, 2014 I was attending a conference where Jeff Jansen and David Hogan were speaking together. Jeff was speaking about the last time he was at this particular place in Kent, Wa called the Transformation Center. He said the Lord had showed him a portal that was over Spokane, Wa which was the cause of much of the John G Lake ministries miracles and healings that have taken place in that region over the years. Jeff said this was a little over a year ago. Then the Lord moved the portal west and it currently sits over the Seattle area. The Lord said that there is something new coming and will be kindled in the Emerald City (Seattle). Jeff called it a revival of sorts.

This coming thing of God is unlike anything that has ever been done on the earth before. While Jeff Jansen was explaining this vision the Lord gave him. I was pulled up in the spirit in an instance and was overlooking the region. I asked the Lord what will become of the Olympia area that I reside in. Then I saw it.

It was an ignition of something. Very similar to that when you watch cardboard beginning to burn. The black line of converted material creeping across the cardboard until a certain point when it erupts with a great fervor. What I saw was that the interstates would act as carriers. I saw an expansion go north and south along the I-5 corridor. This continued clear down into southern California. The Freeways and roads acted like veins in the body pumping life sustaining substance to the much needed areas. I was hovering high above the Olympia area. I could see wall of fire surrounding Olympia very similar to that which started in Seattle. Upon a closer look I could see this wall of fire was a multitude of chariots of fire. In the midst of downtown Olympia was a large whirlwind. This will be at the disposal of those that believe, chariots of fire.

I could hear Jeff now start to speak of what the Lord is doing now. He said this region will experience a Resurrection Revival. I chuckled as I heard this thinking we’ve never had one of these so not sure it can be called a revival but okay I’ll go with it. With the moving of the portal from Spokane to Seattle and the resurrection movement coming this confirms so much for many people. the Resurrection of the Dead will be the new movement of God. Not that resurrections haven’t taken place before, this time it will be so prevalent that it will remove the grey area where agnostics/ atheists like to reside when they say “I don’t know if there is a God or not”. The Signs, Wonders and Miracles will be so plentiful the agnostic grey area will disappear and force people to choose. They will have to choose the kingdom of Light or the kingdom of Darkness. This will be the beginning of the great harvest and millions will run into the kingdom of God.

So get ready and press in its going to be a wild ride. Don't forget to have fun.

From Healing the NW

Prophetic Word for the Northwest: Johnny Enlow

As I was in Tacoma, Washington the first week of October, the Lord spoke to my spirit. I could perceive the region being pregnant with destiny and there has been a generational build-up that is now ready to be manifested in this age of the restoration of all things. I saw that the Northwest was poised as a pull-tab to open up the nation to a fresh wind of healing. This was not just on the US side of the border but encompasses a large area with the US cities of Seattle, Tacoma, Spokane, Portland and the Canadian cities of Vancouver, Abbotsford and Kelowna – and all areas in between – being part of this, where the breath of God will now blow.
   

I believe the archangel Raphael, meaning “God heals,” is the great angel of the mountain of family, and is presently very active over this region with literally millions of newly released angels. This region has historically had seasons of great healing ministries and movements but this next wind is something that will go beyond that. The region will now host and release that which heals people, families, cities and nations. 

Oaks of righteousness will arise from this area and the leaves on their trees will be for the healing of the nations. The spirit of Elijah that turns the hearts of the sons to the fathers and the hearts of the fathers to their sons, will be greatly released from this area. In the spirit realm this northwest region is one giant eagles nest and this will now begin to be revealed more and more. Eagles will gather and eagles will be released. The eagles have been hindered by Jezebel and the Religious Spirit but with the new angelic help will they will now arise and shake off the disorientation, confusion and gloom that has affected them from the demonic realm.
  

The spirit of Elijah restores and brings healing at every level. We can see that healing only bodies from natural illnesses is not a thorough enough level of healing. Bodies continue to get sick as long as family structures remain primarily fractured. New revelation on how to heal families and on how to heal emotional wounds brought on by broken families will come to and from this region. However, it will not only be new healing information but it will really be revelation from heaven that in an instant set’s the captives free. 
   
Family wounds will no longer take years of counseling and digging to find healing- but this spirit of Elijah will carry such a new measure of the Father’s love that it will be as in the days of Jesus – where He could touch the most broken in society and almost overnight have them functioning in destiny.

The spirit of Elijah will show up in a wide range of manners but its purpose in every manifestation will be to bring healing. It will be released by the laying on of hands, through books, through government family structures, through counseling centers and a new music will arise that will carry great healing. ‘Pied Pipers’ of society will arise out of this region carrying a sound that will reach deep into the hearts of the listeners. Some of this music will not be considered ‘Christian’ but will still carry the Father’s healing heart and power.

I saw also great swirls of creativity over the region and a new wave is coming in that will impact all the mountains of society. New ways of doing things will explode all over. New trends will start and go national and many will go global. New music. New fashions. New technologies. New church models. New eateries and coffee houses. New ways of doing business. Something about all this creativity will still be connected to the spirit of Elijah and so it will be that which serves the purpose of connectivedness and community and the societal healing that is brought on via this means.

The recent record rains in the Seattle area are a sign that He will now arise through the “Noahs” and the “arks” that have been in preparatory process for such a time as this. The rising ‘waters’ will not be destruction but it will be that which is designed to raise the level of living. Even as the ark rested on Mt. Ararat (“the curse reversed”) so too, will this all tend towards reversing curses and restoring a higher level of living.

Let the Northwest Gate be fully opened to Heaven!

River of Many Colors

I see a river, a river flowing from His throne coming from this place called Spokane. A river of many faces and races. A river of many colors. I see this river flowing into the sea, I see this river filling the Pacific Rim with fire. With fire and glory. A river of many colors flowing into the Pacific Rim with the fires of end time revival.

I see this river merging with many other rivers from other places and nations. A great river of healing and restoration is cutting the through the rocks and valleys of religion to bring rivers in the desolate heights and pools of water in the desert.

I see the words "Psalm 133" written on the rocks of this river. Like a river the oil is pouring from Aaron's beard and like a river shall it flow from Spokane, Washington. The dew of Hermon shall come from this place called Spokane and the Lord will command a blessing. 

I hear the rumbling of a shaking coming to this area as well. I hear the rumblings of a spiritual earthquake. Many seats of authority being upset and principalities usurped from their ancient places. I see the old places; the historical landmarks of church building coming alive again. 

I see a spark igniting in the old places steeped in tradition. I see an alliance between the Pentecostals and the conservative - like the fisherman in Luke 5 harvest will demand a greater level of unity every imagined. They will cry out to the partners in the other boats, "Come help us! We can hold such a great catch!" 

I see a vast network of ministries starting in Spokane, WA. tying the knots of fellowship throughout the Pacific North West and the world. I see a large base of operation of prayer and intercession mobilized in Spokane, a place of strategy and world evangelism.

A mantle of Philip the Evangelist is settling upon the shoulders of Spokane as they invade the Samaria's of the world. 

I see the word Apostolic over Spokane, an apostolic beachhead for the end time Church and like the Apostles of old their cry will be, "That I might become all things to all men that I might save some..." I will give them a heart for the nations of the world. 

They will be city upon a hill that cannot be hid and house of prayer for all nations. A river of many colors is what I call you Spokane. A river of many colors flowing into the uttermost parts of the earth. The nations shall see it and be glad.

2012 Harvest and the Fullness of Time

Like the sons of Issachar, we are to recognize the times and seasons of God. There are numerous prophetic affirmations indicating that we are entering a "fullness of time" season in 2012, where we will experience resurrection power and the beginning of the great end-time harvest.

Just like the children of Israel, who received a promise of entering the land of milk and honey, we are once again at a "Kadesh Barnea" time in history. At Kadesh Barnea, the Israelites who had been delivered from Egypt, had a decision to make.

Twelve spies from each tribe had come back with a report about the land they were told to possess. Ten spies gave a negative report about the giants in the land and spread fear. Two spies, Joshua and Caleb, gave a good report about the fruit that was in the land and exhorted their generation that they were well able to possess their promise.

Although that generation was given the promise of possessing the land, they did not obtain the promise because of their unbelief and disobedience. They grumbled and complained and God said "I will do to you the very thing I heard you say." (Numbers 14:28).

That generation died in the wilderness and the promise passed down to the next generation. Only Joshua and Caleb from the previous generation were allowed to enter the promised land because they had a different spirit and a different confession.

We must understand the ways of God. It is through faith and perseverance that we will receive our promises, "...do not become sluggish, but imitate those who through faith and perseverance inherit the promises." (Hebrews 6:12)

Not only must we steward our promises, but we must obey the conditions given for them to be fulfilled, "And when the LORD sent you out from Kadesh Barnea, he said, 'Go up and take possession of the land I have given you.' But you rebelled against the command of the LORD your God. You did not trust Him or obey Him" (Deuteronomy 9:23).

Visitations from Bob Jones

In 2002, Bob Jones had a visitation from a heavenly messenger. The messenger conveyed to Bob that the condition for seeing creative miracles was Psalm 133. Unity was much more important to the Lord than we understood.

The messenger pointed out that ambition among Believers opens the door for suspicion; suspicion brings competition; and competition breeds division. When these are present, it will motivate leaders to discredit or undermine those they feel threatened by. It will actually disqualify some and cannot exist in the heart of the generation that God entrusts spiritual power and true authority to.

Bob Jones has made numerous trips to the Northwest. Every time he comes, he brings a word about the importance of bridling the tongue. About 20 years ago, while ministering in Spokane, WA, he gave a prophetic promise with a condition. He prophesied that if we wanted to experience the miracles they had in the latter rain healing revival, we needed to obey Psalm 15. That Scripture exhorts us not to cast a slur on our fellow man.

In 1998, Bob saw an orange pickup truck from the 1950s that was broken down. It represented the latter rain healing revival that took place during that decade. He was told that we could "pick up" where they left off. The latter rain revival was cut short because of character issues, including greed, competition, immorality, and pride. America turned down her season of opportunity, much like Jerusalem did and missed her day of visitation (Luke 19:41-44).

In Isaiah 58, it says that if we do away with the pointing of the finger and malicious talk, our light will surely come (verses 9-10).

The choice is ours. We can choose to believe the promises of God, repent of gossip and slander and choose to love one another, and experience revival and creative miracles; or we can continue to grumble and complain about each other, and how bad things are, and die in the wilderness.

2012 Harvest

Recently, I had the honor of interviewing Bob Jones in his home in Charlotte, NC. We talked about his death experience in 1975, where the Lord sent him back to witness the beginning of a billion soul harvest. He believes that the harvest will begin in 2012 and we will see resurrection power and creative miracles.

The generation Bob saw in the "Sands of Time" vision have reached the age of maturity this year. He saw an army arising (those born in 1981 and after) that would be characterized by compassion and holiness. He was told that when they reached the age of maturity, no gift would be denied them and no disease known to man would stand before them. They would have no fear of the enemy. They would have the Spirit without measure.

There will be some born before 1981, with a spirit like Joshua and Caleb, who will also experience these promises. They will be leaders in this next move of God and will gladly lay their lives down in love for the next generation.

Numbers 32:11-13, "Because they have not followed Me wholeheartedly, not one of those who were twenty years old or more when they came up out of Egypt will see the land I promised on oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob– not one except Caleb and Joshua, for they followed the LORD wholeheartedly."

We have come to the Kingdom for such a TIME as this. Let's possess our promises in this "fullness of time" season.

Get Ready For Our BRIGHTEST HOUR

From Cal Pierce:

In the World There is Tribulation

It seems that everything that can be shaken is being shaken. This is not the time for the Body of Christ to be discouraged. It is the time to encourage ourselves in the things of God. The Lord has told us these things. John 16:33 says:

"These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world."

We must remember that we are in the world, but not of the world (John 15:19). We are of another realm. We are of the Kingdom of God. In John 16:33, God tells His people to take courage because the world without God will fail, but we can have peace in the storm. We can have peace when we focus on Jesus and the Kingdom of God where our provision comes from.

Provision of the Kingdom - Trust in the Lord

When we focus on the world, we walk by sight and trust in man's order of things. Then we are aligned with what the enemy wants us to believe in. When we focus on God and His will, we align with the Kingdom of God and His provision. Listen to what God is telling us in Proverbs 3:5-10:

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
Fear the Lord and turn away from evil.
It will be healing to your body,
And refreshment to your bones.
Honor the Lord from your wealth,
And from the first of all your produce,
So your barns will be filled with plenty,
And your vats will overflow with new wine."

The first thing God is saying is to trust Him with all our heart. God is not worried about man's economy. God has a Kingdom economy that He wants on Earth as it is in Heaven (Matthew 6:10). He tells us that if we won't lean on our own understanding, but in everything acknowledge Him, He will direct our path.

In other words, the keys to the Kingdom of God come to us as we trust and acknowledge Him. The provision of the Kingdom comes to the Believer by faith. We are not walking by faith if we have fear, because we are going by how things look. Proverbs 3:25-26 says,

"Do not be afraid of sudden fear,
Nor of the onslaught of the wicked when it comes;
For the Lord will be your confidence,
And will keep your foot from being caught."

When we trust in God, when He is our confidence, then He keeps us from the enemy's snare. When we focus on man's economy, we hold back because of fear. InProverbs 3, we are told to honor the Lord from our wealth so that our barns or houses will be filled with plenty.

God wants us to overcome by sowing so that we can have a harvest. We reap when we sow; this is the Kingdom release. It is opposite from the world's order of things that tells us to hold on to our seed. What good is it to talk about the Kingdom of God coming on the Earth as it is in Heaven if we don't possess it? Jesus said that "the Kingdom of God is at hand" – which means it is reachable.

Our Brightest Hour - Arise, Shine!

Now is not the time to hold back. It's the time to release God's Kingdom provision for healing and restoration to a desperate world. The world will be looking for answers more now than ever before. This should become our brightest hour. Isaiah 60:1-3 says,

"Arise, shine, for your light has come.
And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.
For behold, darkness will cover the earth,
And deep darkness the peoples;
But the Lord will rise upon you,
And His glory will appear upon you.
And nations will come to your light,
And kings to the brightness of your rising."

Remember, be of good cheer and get ready!

The Father of Lights

"The Northwest Of The USA Is A Glory Atmosphere Of Revival!"

"Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the Heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows." James 1:17

I have just recently returned from a trip to the Northwest of the United States of America, during which time I experienced multiple visitations of the manifestation of the glory of God. I share them with you now as an encouragement, and in the hope that countless others will experience a fresh outpouring of God's miracle-working power.

There were so many awesome prophetic engagements with the Lord, that I can hardly find the vocabulary to describe them. I was deeply impacted by the revival atmosphere in the Northwest. All glory to God. I don't pretend to understand everything I experienced, but with child-like faith I say, "Thank you Father," and trust that the Spirit of wisdom and revelation will make all things clear in His perfect time.

Vision of Light--September 15, Yakima, WA

While sleeping at the home of my hosts, I was awakened at 5:45 am by the Lord, and as I struggled to open my sleepy eyes, I was to discover that the darkness was illuminated with His glorious light. The house had no power due to an unexpected power outage, and I lay breathless at the wonder of what unfolded before me.

Suddenly, the Lord took me by His Spirit into a dimension of His grace I have not previously known. It was as though I was inside a human body, and the Light of Christ was illuminating cells, bones, organs, and tissues. I traveled at the speed of light around a human body, marveling at its construction and the way in which the light of Christ affected physical matter.

I was privileged to witness the creative light of God at work as the Father revealed the uniting of an egg and a sperm to create a human embryo. I saw tiny cells multiply and a young fetus form in the womb. I lay bathed in sparkling light marveling at it, and yet, not fully understanding what God was doing.

My whole being was infused with a holy energy emanating from the Light of Christ. I managed to fall asleep again some time later and when I awoke, although my body was tired from the long flight, it was still flooded with supernatural heat and light.

His Blood Washes--September 16, Spokane, WA

During the 4-hour drive from Yakima to Spokane, another manifestation of glory deeply affected me. I was trying to take a nap, but found I was unable to fall asleep. Even as my eyes were closed, an unusual phenomenon occurred--red color started to seep across the inside of my eye lids. When I inquired of the Lord, He reassured me and told me that He was washing my eyes with His blood, so that I might see things as He sees them. After a few moments, my eyes became clear again, and I was able to see normally. I believe the Lord is taking His Bride into new depths of appropriation of all that the Blood of Christ has accomplished on our behalf.

Feathers Fall--September 17, Coeur D'Alene, ID

In just three days, I had been in Seattle, Washington, and now I crossed my third state line to speak at Coeur D'Alene, Idaho. The presence of the Lord was stunning and as we worshipped, many of us felt the soft breeze created by angelic wings as they descended into our meeting. There was also a supernatural manifestation of tiny white feathers that fell from Heaven during the message. How wonderful!

I had been sharing about a dream I had received in which God protected me and then gave me a white feather. Gateway Fellowship is experiencing a profound outpouring of glory at this time; thirty-eight gemstones have fallen from Heaven in recent times. I preached from Ezekiel 46 on preparing our hearts for revival. The Lord wants to open our spiritual eyes and ears, that we might see and hear the sounds of Heaven, and become more intimately acquainted with His glory as ambassadors of His Kingdom here on earth, as well as experience revival.

Healing Vision--September 17, Umatilla, OR

After lunch and another 4-hour drive, I arrived in my fourth state on this trip--Oregon. In Umatilla, I shared testimony, taught, and preached on God's lavish love for His children (1 John 3:1-3), and the Spirit fell, and healed broken hearts, backs, cysts, and more. There is healing in the glory!

During worship, I received a vision of a little Jewish boy. He held a Rose of Sharon in his hand and was enjoying the bloom. In Washington state just two days previously, I had my first ever glimpse of a Rose of Sharon bush. As my friend and I stood beside the tree, God's glory began to be poured out from Heaven to earth. What joy we experienced!

Now the Lord was speaking in a vision using the Rose of Sharon, and the tenderness of the moment was not lost on me. The vision changed, the boy became a man, and now held a red rose in his hand. A thorn from the rose pierced his flesh and as the blood trickled down his palm, the man received supernatural revelation of the blood of the Messiah being poured out as a love offering for his salvation. He wept and received Christ as his Savior.

The vision changed to a setting at the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem, with every nook and crevice filled with a Rose of Sharon blossom. The Jewish men who stood at the wall were also receiving the revelation of the Messiah as Savior just as the man in the previous vision had done. The symbolism of the vision speaks of a massive outpouring of salvations amongst the Jewish people. Thank you Jesus--we receive it and pray for all Israel to be saved.

Pray for Revival--September 18, Albany, OR

An early morning start took us a further 5-6 hours to Albany, OR. for a TV interview with my friend Steve Shultz of The Elijah List. Interestingly, we arrived around 1 hour and 20 minutes ahead of schedule! Translation? Only God knows! The same Spirit who translated Philip (see Acts chapter 8) can still supernaturally move His people around today!

At The Elijah List, it was wonderful to meet friends--old and new, and God poured out such joy! I believe that joy and glory go hand in hand. I learned that Kathryn Kuhlman had been commissioned in a building nearby, and we headed around there and prayed for the Lord to re-ignite revival. The building is now used as a center for youth struggling with addictions. There is still a portal of glory at one of the main entrance ways--go there and pray for the youth that are going to become mighty warriors for Christ. You will be blessed!

Revival Angel with Fire and Cambodia--September 18, Canby, OR

Prior to ministering in Canby, I laid down for a few moments to be refreshed. During this time, I had a vision of a female angel with fire in her wing tips. When she spoke, small fire flashes came from her mouth. I believe she is a revival angel.

The Lord explained to me that this angel imparts holy fire, which burns up what is old in us in order to release the new and fresh growth the Lord wishes to produce in us.

Following on from this, I also received a vision of Jesus walking in the streets of Cambodia, in which I witnessed our precious Lord create new limbs on the bodies of countless amputees. We say, "Yes Lord!"

The ORB in the Sky--September 19

On the plane traveling from Portland to Seattle, I looked out the window and saw a huge glistening orb. It had colors of the rainbow inside it, and shimmered and glowed like a pearl. It traveled with us for some time, and I was quite amazed by what my open eyes were seeing. Suddenly, the orb seemed to surround the plane and seconds later, we hit a significant and very brief storm in the sky.

Many have spoken of angels being seen as orbs of light. I have never personally experienced this until now. I believe what I saw was an angel that was assigned to the airplane to provide protection from the Lord. Throughout this trip, I was so aware of the lavish love, extravagant grace, unbeatable power, and unending compassion of our Lord. What a destiny He has prepared for those who love Him!

Back Home in Scotland, the Fire Still Burns--September 20

Back home, I lay in the dark next to my precious husband, and God's fire burned in my body. I tried to sleep, but sleep was impossible. I lay quietly drenched with sweat because of the manifestation of glory. The darkness became full of the translucent glory atmosphere I had experienced while in the Northwest. It was as though the light had become liquid and viscose in quality. I could literally run my hands through it. The light had substance and was alive with the glory-filled spiritual DNA of God!

Outside, the physical rain poured down in a deluge and occasionally a flash of light would illuminate the dark skies. It felt as though an electric current was running through my whole being. I longed to understand what God was doing with the light!

As I lay quietly, the Spirit of God began to link Scripture to my experience. I was reminded that in the beginning, God created light and it was good! (Genesis 1:3.) God's light is full of His goodness and His creative power. I thought again of witnessing the union of the egg and sperm, and the miracle creation of a human fetus.

God is revealing His creative light to us as His glory manifests on the earth. For many years, I have prayed for the release of a creative miracle anointing, and I believe what I saw was a visual representation of this very thing. Light is energy and Christ's light is life. Christ said, "I have come into the world as light, so that no one who believes in Me should stay in darkness." John 12:46.

Where there is spiritual death, Christ comes to rule with His life-giving Light and presence! I have witnessed cells and body tissue being filled with the glory as Christ healed those damaged cells. My faith level has soared to new heights for those with cancers and for those in need of miracle healings. Reach out now for your miracle--Jesus is the Healer. He is the Creator of Light, He is Light and He dwells in unspeakable light.

The Northwest of the USA is in an Atmosphere of Revival!

When I awakened in the morning, there was another pure white feather as a gift from the Lord! As I ponder my time in the Northwest, it occurs to me that as the Spirit creates an atmosphere of faith on the earth, it becomes a supernatural atmosphere of glory in which miracles can and do happen.

Our Lord Jesus is the Light of the World. Our God is the Father of Lights, and every good and perfect gift comes from Him. Jesus said we are the light of the world (Matthew 5:14)--may our lives reflect and radiate His glory. The light of God's presence brings glory and healing miracles. I believe the Lord is releasing the gift of creative miracles in the earth. The Northwest of the USA is in an atmosphere of revival!

We are each partakers in the harvest and of the glory. I realize that I have shared some unusual experiences. May our Lord grant us wisdom to understand the times and prophetically engage with His Spirit for the healing of the nations.
