I am very encouraged with the news of God’s increasing kingdom in the midst of shaking times of the nations. In a time of blowing winds, storms, droughts, and melting heat God is moving in a powerful way. We are the princes and princesses of God’s kingdom who fix our eyes upon our righteous King! When the world is blinded by the blowing winds and doesn’t know what to believe, we believe in the One who loves us. In a time of raging storms and the actions of men are those of preserving self, we are being empowered for acts of love and are being anointed to sow more seeds for the multiplication of nobility. In a time of drought and the thoughts of men are inspired to make hasty decisions affecting the generations to come we are growing in the imaginations of our hearts to know the strategies for the life of the generations to come. In a time of melting heat when men lose their focus and they become people of stammering speech, we take on the life giving influence of God’s testimony to the unfolding generations of tomorrow. We are a source of God’s inheritance in the earth!
The center of the universe is not hinged upon a revelation of mankind. A revelation of how good God is and how much He loves us is pivotal for knowing the basis of all life! God is good and He loves us! This is the core of life! The core of religion chooses to see a vision of bad people who need a Savior. The core of life is that although people are bound to sin and deception, God is good and He really loves us! We are in a grassroots revolution of God’s love!
I am stirred by the Prophet Isaiah’s words:
Isaiah 60:1-3
“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.”
“Nations will come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising.”
I believe that these words are prophetically relevant for this moment and hour for the church in the nations. We are in a grassroots revolution and Christ is calling His body to arise with the testimony of light!
I recall a vision that I had three years ago while in England. I saw a woman standing on a horse in a field. She appeared to be standing with a horse under her. The vision was vague as to whether the horse suspended the woman’s feet or she was standing on the ground with the horse beneath her. The wind was blowing violently. The horse was making sudden moves of its head backward as the wind blew and the woman would turn her head in like fashion as the horse turned its head. The nostrils of the horse were flared and emotional expressions of human reaction could be seen in the horse’s facial features. As I recall the vision I could see the emotions of human strength in the face of the horse and the strength of muscle in its neck. Each sudden turn of the horse’s head caused a sudden turn of the woman in the same sideways to backward motion. This happened four times repeatedly. I thought to see the color of the horse and tried to focus on the horse, but the vision would not allow me to focus on the horse or its color. What I thought to be of importance was not the focus of the vision. Then I saw the woman face the winds head on and she stood tall upon the horse and the horse dissolved beneath her as she stood. The woman’s head was no longer turning for she was fully facing the wind as it blew. I could see that the woman was rising in a glorious posture with a firm stand upon the ground. The woman’s face became radiant and her hair was long and waving like golden wheat. It streamed backward as the wind blew and looked to flow with the wind like waves. Her body and the appearance of her face became radiant, like the sun. The brightness of the light didn’t allow me to make out any features of her body, but her face was clear in complexion and she had a focus of anticipation and expectation in the expression of her eyes. I could now see that the field was a field of wheat and it too showed rhythmic patterns of waving in the wind, but there was no sense of despair. The field looked endless in every direction around the woman. There was only a sense of great glory, peace, and even destiny. I heard the Lord say, “If my church will call what the world calls ‘winds of change’ – ‘WINDS OF DESTINY’ – her finest hour is at hand. She will rise up as the life-giving womb of God in the earth and there will be a great harvest and her glory will be awesome!”
We are the body of Christ and it is time that we rise up with the Holy Spirit of life! We are the life-giving womb of God in the earth and the treasures of heaven are being birthed in a grassroots revolution of love among the nations of the earth. We are being empowered by One Lord, One Faith, One Submersion, One God and Father, One God Above All, One God Through All, and One God In All (Eph. 4:4-6). This is the testimony of the manifested nobility of Christ. A King rules righteously and it is time for princes to rule justly in the earth (Isa. 32:1-4). If we fix our eyes upon the King we will not turn our heads when the winds blow, or the storms come, or the drought is in the land, or the heat is melting the hearts of men. We must be the people who know that God is good and He really loves humanity! When men are crying out because things are bad and they need a Savior, we must be the womb of God that reveals that God is good and He really loves them! This is a grassroots revolution of love!
Who are we as the body of Christ? We are a spiritual house for a spiritual priesthood and we are anointed to make spiritual sacrifices to God. These are sacrifices of love to the one who loves us. Our empowerment is not based upon a command to love Him, but upon a revelation of how much He loves us (Heb. 5:12-14; 6:1-3; 1 Pet. 2:9-13).
We receive our life through a revelation of His love. Our future is secure because the procreative area of our body wears the belt of truth. The belt of truth is not a measure of good and evil, it is a revelation of God’s love. He is good and He loves us! We have been granted repentance from dead works, because we are a chosen race of born again creations and we are alive to God in Christ.
We are being empowered for works of life through the evidence of faith. We wear a breastplate of righteousness and our actions of acts of love from our hearts. We have faith toward God. We are a royal priesthood offering sacrifices of faith toward the One who loves us!
We have the testimony of life through a submersion in God’s life-giving Spirit. Our feet drip with an anointing that testifies of the good news of our peace with God. Though we walk upon this earth, we live in the house of God in His heavenly realities of life and there is no gap between Him and us. We are continually experiencing a change of culture and lifestyle by a submersion in Christ. We are holy nation in Christ!
We have been given the authority of life through a submission one to another in Him. We move forward beyond the opposition of every fiery distraction with a shield of faith as God’s ministers of life with the giving of life through the laying on of hands of the corporate body of Christ. We have been given the life-giving authority of being God’s own special people as ministers of life to the world in which we live!
We have the power of life through the manifested evidence of His presence. We wear a helmet of salvation and we know that there is no God above our God. We stand in the power of the resurrection of the dead and have the victory of life in all things. We are a people of praise and are no longer bound to the testimony of days ending in darkness for we live in the in the increasing Day of light!
We have the communion of life through His eternal Sprit made known in His body. We have been given the eternal judgment of eternal life. We were not a people, but now we are the people of God. The testimony of a love for God and a love for people is a life expression in our mouths as a sword of the Spirit revealing the community and communion of the sanctified ones in Christ. We are bringing the community of heaven to the communities of the earth through the life-giving expressions of Christ in us!
We have the inevitable increase and perfection of life in Christ. The awe of God is empowering to pray in the Spirit. The power of perfections is being granted to us through the evidence of prayer and we will know one God in men as a people who have fully obtained the mercy of God!
“Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you.”

An Israel Generation
The Lord says He’s seeking for a Jacob generation that He might turn the Jacob generation into the “inheriting ones”. “And even now, there’s a transition”, says God, “in My Body and those who have sought to seek and find Me are going to discover that I’m the One Who seeks to find them. And in the place of wrestling, there’s a breakthrough.” For God says, “I’m bringing forth My ‘inheriting one.’ I’m bringing forth My Israel. I’m bringing forth My Prince with God. There was a time and there was a season when I sought for those who would be a Jacob generation, but hear the Word of the Lord! Hear the Word of the Lord! Hear the Word of the Lord! This is the day for Me to lay hold of you! This is not the day for you to lay hold of Me! This is the day for Me to lay hold of you – and in Me laying hold of you, it’s time for you to endure! It’s time for you to hold on, and it’s in that place of wrestling that there’s going to come an inheritance – there’s going to come an inheritance!”
The Lord says, “In this house there’s a shift in the Spirit. Don’t seek the thing that was before. Seek that which is beyond that which was before. Seek that which is the increase. Seek that which is the ‘more’. For this is not a time to break away. This is a time to stand fast and say, ‘Our God has come! He has laid hold of us and we will not let go of that which He has laid hold of!’”
The Lord put a Scripture on my heart for you as a house, …it’s out of Isaiah, Chapter 32.
“Behold a King will reign righteously, and princes will rule justly. Each will be like a refuge from the wind and a shelter from the storm, like streams of water in a dry country, like the shade of a huge rock in a parched land. Then the eyes of those who see will not be blinded, and the ears of those who hear will listen. The mind of the hasty will discern truth, and the tongue of the stammerers will hasten to speak clearly. No longer will the fool be called noble, or the rogue be spoken of as generous. For a fool speaks nonsense, and his heart inclines toward wickedness: to practice ungodliness and to speak error against the Lord. To keep the hungry person unsatisfied and to withhold drink from the thirsty. As for a rogue, his weapons are evil; he devises wicked schemes to destroy the afflicted with slander, even though the needy one speaks what is right. But the noble man devises noble plans; and by noble plans he stands.”
Hear the Word of the Lord! Hear the Word of the Lord! Hear the Word of the Lord!
For God says “In My Body, and even in this place, I’ve been bringing forth a shift – a shift in the land. And the land is that which I call My covenant place. It’s not your contract place – it’s My covenant place! And in My covenant place, I have sought for those who would seek Me. But I’ve done a shift now and declared that now I’m seeking to find those who have sought Me, that they might find that I’m the One that seeks them. But the place that I seek them in is a place of endurance. The place that I seek them in is a place of strength. It’s a place of abiding. It’s a place of remaining. It’s not a place of hungering, it’s a place of being satisfied and of seeking to satisfy the hungy.”
And the Lord says, “In this season, I’m going to reveal who the princes are, for the princes are those who can be a refuge from the wind because these are the ones who have endured the wind. And the princes are the ones who can be a shelter from the storm, for these are the ones who have stood fast through every storm. And the princes can be the ones who are springs of water in a dry country because when they stood in a dry country, they didn’t leave the land, but they found water deep. And the princes are those who are the shade of a rock in a parched land because in the heat, they did not melt and they did not fade away. Now is the time when I will raise up the princes!”
And the Lord says, “There’s a mark on this house. There’s a mark upon you, as a people. Don’t look to the side! Don’t look to the right, to the left! Don’t look behind – don’t look before to discover the mark! Look within the heart!” For God says, “The mark is the mark of those who have wrestled with Me, and those who have broken through that find that I’m the One that laid hold of them! And now will come a time of strategy.
Watch and see! That means, be awake and expect it! Be awake and expect it! Be awake and expect it! But don’t expect it to come from Me, apart from My princes, for My princes are those who have wrestled with Me and are ready for the inheritance! And this Word is not just for this place – this is for My Body!” says God, “but you are in the place of discovering what I am doing in this hour.” For the Lord says, “Inheritance is for princes! Inheritance is of fathers! Inheritance is of the Father’s Name! And it’s those who stand fast! Those who stand in the place of My blessing, who release the blessing!”
Get ready, Pastor Cesar, For the Lord says, “A mantle is coming! A mantle is falling! Be ready, people, for when a mantle falls, it’s time to get under! It’s time to come under. When a mantle falls, it’s time to lift up your head, but lift up your head in the place where the mantle resides. For a mantle does not come in multiple places but a mantle comes, to rest upon headship and to come upon a body. And there’s a new mantle that’s coming upon this body,” says the Lord, ”for there’s a new mantle that’s coming upon this man and this woman. There’s a mantle that’s going to cause you to see with greater clarity. Don’t be confused, for the mantle that’s coming is not a mantle because a man is wrestling because he’s hungry. It’s because a man is wrestling because I’m hungry!” And God says, “I’m hungry to find such a people and I’ve laid hold of you! I’ve laid hold of you! And in the midst of adversity, you’ve remained in the place of adversity! In the midst of things not working out quite right, you’ve remained right! So the Lord says a mantle is coming – now is not the time to stretch out from under it, for this mantle will come.”
And the Lord says, “As the mantle comes, vision will come and there will be noble plans, there’ll be noble schemes, noble strategies. But noble plans are not plans for unto one’s self, but noble plans are plans that reach beyond one’s self.” And the Lord says, “This body, this church, this congregation is going to reach farther than you’ve ever reached before because some things, not only have been settled, but some things are being settled – by Me!” says God. “And now the mantle will come! Get ready! Get ready! Get ready! For even in the next nine months – even as nine is the number of My Spirit – both of power and of life; both of charisma and of fruit. And even as nine is the number of pregnancy, so shall this thing be birthed. And there will be a mantle that comes upon. Watch and see, for in nine months, there will come forth a new liberty, and a new clarity. But within these nine months trust the place of pregnancy! Trust the place of headship! Trust the place of family! Trust the womb that will birth what I’m bringing forth. For what I’m bringing forth will not be disconnected from the continuity of that which I have desired, for it’s of inheritance!” says God. “It’s of inheritance! You will see that princes will rule for they will be a refuge from the wind, for these are those who have withstood the wind. They will be a shelter from the storm, for these are those who have stood fast through every storm. They will be water in a dry country, because these are those who have found water in a dry place! They will be shade from a parched land, for these are those who have not wilted in the day and in the heat.”
And God says, “This is the time – this is the time! Come under My mantle of grace!”
An ‘Israel’ Generation – (Audio Version)
I feel that this word is huge for a shift concerning the Body of Christ and that is why I felt compelled to share it in my blog today. We have been the Jacob generation that seeks God, but now God wants to lay hold of us as the ‘Israel’ generation of His name. These are the inheriting ones. It is key to know that a mantle of strategy and noble plans is coming on His inheriting Church. These are the ones who will rule in His character, nature, way, power, and authority. These are the ones who will rule in His name. They will not live constantly seeking to find the blessing of God, for they will know that in Christ they are the blessing of God. These princes will be a refuge from the wind, for these are those who have withstood the wind. They will be a shelter from the storm, for these are those who have stood fast through every storm. They will be water in a dry country, because these are those who have found water in a dry place! They will be shade from a parched land, for these are those who have not wilted in the day and in the heat. The plans and strategies of this ‘Israel’ generation will teach the children of the nations to stand in the midst of the winds of adversity and to become a strength by which generations can stand. They will disciple nations to endure the storms and to become shelters for their own children from every storm. They will show peoples how to find the water of life in the dry places and how to release water for the planting of the trees of generations. They will mentor families to find God as the One who empowers them in the heat of every day and those families will empower others also in God in the midst of the heat of every day. The rivers of the past have been the rivers of a Jacob generation. They have been rivers of blessings. But God is releasing now the rivers of planting. These are the rivers that make us become a blessing. These are the deep waters of inheritance that raise up every man and woman in the inheritance of Christ’s name. If you have an ear to hear, ‘Hear what the Spirit is saying to the Church!’
Blessings to you all,

The Lord says watch and see as I bring forth unexpected things in unexpected places – and even places that have been resounded through the noise that you’ve heard, the noise that you’ve heard here, the noise that you’ve heard there, the noise that you’ve heard resounding around the earth that has proclaimed and declared that the news is one thing, but the Lord says that I’m bringing forth a grace in this time that things that seem uncommon today will be common tomorrow.
And as that grace comes you’re going to see that I’m going to move in unlikely places with the grace of my kingdom. Watch and see as I establish in the East that which is a glory to me and I bring forth stability in the midst of instability. Watch and see as I create things and cause there to be an expansion even of that which has been, and there will be natural expressions of it, not only in the wisdom of adventures and ventures, but also in the wisdom of investments and dividends and the Lord says seeds that you have sown will now be harvest that you will reap and harvest that you will reap will also inspire more seed to be sown, and investments will be made in new places.
Be ready and expect to believe that which I put in your heart. For you will see it and it will come forth. And it will not just be that which you would determine to be a priestly thing, a thing that is gathered in an assembly where you will lift up your hands and worship me, but it will be a thing that is also a kingly thing where I put in your heart to see what I see, and I put in your mind to expect what I expect and I cause your feet to walk in a new direction and a new confidence and it even brings change into the earth.
And you would say who would bring the change? Who would bring the government? Who would bring the decision? And the Lord says, as I heal your heart and cause you to be a people who are healed in heart and soul you’re going to find that you’ll be full of thoughts and inventions and you’ll step forward even to administrate as the “gate” and you won’t be late. You’ll be in time and in the season and responsibility will come to some of you that you do not expect, and it will come even as a grace that causes authority to be measured out to you.
And that authority will come forth and it will go as a scepter of good news, as a point of blessing to say that this is the day of the favor of the Lord. And when many in My house, who profess to be of My house, but look back to the house of yesterday, when many would say calamity has come, I will say Now is the day of good news and there will be a grace that will cause things to be transformed.
The Lord says, even as I’ve spoken it out in the spirit and brought forth a sound that is ever greater than what you can know, I want you to understand that it’s very practical and it comes into your house. Will you believe that I can establish your dwelling place to be a testimony of my dwelling? And you’re dwelling with me. Will you believe that I will bring forth unexpected things within the boundaries and the walls which I have given to you to cause your home to be a home and not a house, to cause your relationships to be healed and expanded and go forth. Will you believe that I’m moving by my grace in this season to say that as you step out from the place of broken relationships I will amaze you with healed relationships? And I will amaze you to be a healer of relationships.
For the Lord says I desire to put the responsibility of a gate upon your life. And I have not come to visit, I’ve come to inhabit. But the Lord says it’s time to step forward. It’s time to believe. And so God says change your mind by the power of My grace and be known and confessed by Me as My heavenly place for this year will be a year unlike any other, This year will be a year that goes beyond what you’ve seen This year will be a year of effectiveness and purpose and you’ll be clothed in confidence like never before, And you’ll be clothed in security and you’ll be clothed in identity. And you’ll come forth with a new countenance because of a new confidence. And you’ll come forth with a new surety because of a new security. You’ll come forth with a new identity because of a clear inheritance that comes upon you and you will find that when you come to the end of this season, it will be an advancement even more.
So the Lord says lift up your heads and confess that the heaven is open and believe the work that’s been spoken, and step forward. Its time to accelerate, don’t move to the right, don’t move to the left. Stand fast in a forward direction and anticipate that your hands will touch things of great joy.
And the Lord says the more you read the chapters of yesterday’s story, the more you will be resistant of that which is coming forth. For you must believe that the book is not written. You must believe that the story is not yet told. You must believe that the chapter is ready to unfold, and there’s going to come forth an inspiration from me. And this is so practical.
The Lord says some of you have longed for a mate. Some of you have longed for a joining, a destiny to finally discover that place of confidence. The Lord says some of you have been waiting and waiting, but I too am going to call on you and say it’s time to step forward. It’s time to look for the places that are unexpected where I will bring forth my graces and the Lord says it will not be in a noisy place. It will be in a place that responds to the sound of who you are.
And God says many of you have been waiting for me to bring the answer, but I’ve declared that you are the answer. And as you begin to move forward in the confidence of who you are, then I will open the eyes of those who are looking and they will see and they will discover the treasure that comes from the earth.
The Lord says this is a year of miracles. This is a year of amazing grace. For snow will increase, not only in the natural will there be testimony of great snows this year, but there will be a supernatural testimony of great snow. And the snow will come, not for an immediate response but for an eternal response. For what comes in one day will have an effect for many days. And it will even prepare the heights for the valleys of the summer, and the blessings will come upon the crops and the crops will come forth in an abundant measure. And the Lord says this is also a year when I’m going to release the fountains of the deep and the fountains of the deep are going to come forth as fire.
And you will even see that there will be a sign of an increase of volcanic activity. There will be a trembling and a shaking that comes, but the sign is not what I seek, but it’s the testimony of that which comes. For even in you there will come a rumbling and I will call forth from you something that’s deeper than you’ve even dared to believe for before, and as it comes you’ll find that the places of yesterdays wounding will be the discoveries of today’s treasure. And there will become things that will have many facets and many angles and many expressions.
There’ll be places that reflect my light and reflect my glory. And it’s not because you’ve merely been exposed to pressure, it’s because I’ve drawn you out from the place that is deep and the Lord says this is going to be the testimony of your life this year. Be ready for more facets than you’ve expected on your own life. Be ready to be cut from the place that is rough and become the place that shines. So the Lord says position yourself for it’s time to step out from the gate, time to accelerate. You are my living gate in 2008.
He says don’t limit my graces in just limited places for the Lord says I’m going to make covenant in places that merely come as alliances and allegiances to my cause. And the Lord says they’re going to come for one reason. They’re going to come to sow their treasures into a treasure house.
As I bring the identity upon My people to be My people and the favor is there and they prove to be a place of good investment, the Lord says I’m going to bring those who will come to make investments, but as they come to make investments they’re going to find that I have invited them to the place of investments where investments come good. And where transitions take place and where there’s an expansion of grace. And the Lords says they will come for one reason but they will come and find that there’s an eternal season that transforms their hearts.
Watch and see as I join to My house in many places people from different clans and tribes, people from different identities and means of purpose. And the Lord says I’m going to even bring some in that will have a mind set, a way of thinking, a mind set, a way of thinking that expands the boundaries of the thinking of My house. And as they come it’s going to open up the treasure house even more. And there’s going to come forth an amazing abundance of grace.
The Lord says GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, GET READY, POSITION YOUR FEET TO RUN WITH THE HORSES! POSITION YOUR FEET TO RUN WITH THE HORSES! POSITION YOUR FEET TO RUN WITH THE HORSES FOR YOU SHALL ACCELERATE IN 2008!

And as that grace comes you’re going to see that I’m going to move in unlikely places with the grace of my kingdom. Watch and see as I establish in the East that which is a glory to me and I bring forth stability in the midst of instability. Watch and see as I create things and cause there to be an expansion even of that which has been, and there will be natural expressions of it, not only in the wisdom of adventures and ventures, but also in the wisdom of investments and dividends and the Lord says seeds that you have sown will now be harvest that you will reap and harvest that you will reap will also inspire more seed to be sown, and investments will be made in new places.
Be ready and expect to believe that which I put in your heart. For you will see it and it will come forth. And it will not just be that which you would determine to be a priestly thing, a thing that is gathered in an assembly where you will lift up your hands and worship me, but it will be a thing that is also a kingly thing where I put in your heart to see what I see, and I put in your mind to expect what I expect and I cause your feet to walk in a new direction and a new confidence and it even brings change into the earth.
And you would say who would bring the change? Who would bring the government? Who would bring the decision? And the Lord says, as I heal your heart and cause you to be a people who are healed in heart and soul you’re going to find that you’ll be full of thoughts and inventions and you’ll step forward even to administrate as the “gate” and you won’t be late. You’ll be in time and in the season and responsibility will come to some of you that you do not expect, and it will come even as a grace that causes authority to be measured out to you.
And that authority will come forth and it will go as a scepter of good news, as a point of blessing to say that this is the day of the favor of the Lord. And when many in My house, who profess to be of My house, but look back to the house of yesterday, when many would say calamity has come, I will say Now is the day of good news and there will be a grace that will cause things to be transformed.
The Lord says, even as I’ve spoken it out in the spirit and brought forth a sound that is ever greater than what you can know, I want you to understand that it’s very practical and it comes into your house. Will you believe that I can establish your dwelling place to be a testimony of my dwelling? And you’re dwelling with me. Will you believe that I will bring forth unexpected things within the boundaries and the walls which I have given to you to cause your home to be a home and not a house, to cause your relationships to be healed and expanded and go forth. Will you believe that I’m moving by my grace in this season to say that as you step out from the place of broken relationships I will amaze you with healed relationships? And I will amaze you to be a healer of relationships.
For the Lord says I desire to put the responsibility of a gate upon your life. And I have not come to visit, I’ve come to inhabit. But the Lord says it’s time to step forward. It’s time to believe. And so God says change your mind by the power of My grace and be known and confessed by Me as My heavenly place for this year will be a year unlike any other, This year will be a year that goes beyond what you’ve seen This year will be a year of effectiveness and purpose and you’ll be clothed in confidence like never before, And you’ll be clothed in security and you’ll be clothed in identity. And you’ll come forth with a new countenance because of a new confidence. And you’ll come forth with a new surety because of a new security. You’ll come forth with a new identity because of a clear inheritance that comes upon you and you will find that when you come to the end of this season, it will be an advancement even more.
So the Lord says lift up your heads and confess that the heaven is open and believe the work that’s been spoken, and step forward. Its time to accelerate, don’t move to the right, don’t move to the left. Stand fast in a forward direction and anticipate that your hands will touch things of great joy.
And the Lord says the more you read the chapters of yesterday’s story, the more you will be resistant of that which is coming forth. For you must believe that the book is not written. You must believe that the story is not yet told. You must believe that the chapter is ready to unfold, and there’s going to come forth an inspiration from me. And this is so practical.
