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!



Great Change Coming – Winds of Change

Lisa AJ CookeDoyle

Steve Shultz and I have had many emails back and forth this year in reference to the favor of God that is being extended this year to His Beloved Bride. Below, I have gleaned prophetic conversation out of emails we have shared, and many of these things are in the teachings I have prepared as led by God over the last two years or so. Since then it seems that God has now redefined and narrowed things down to not just a general time period but to a "now" time period.

The Importance of Prayer and Intercession

God has been and is pouring out His Spirit upon His Bride, His Church, in a very powerful way, much like the Day of Pentecost – except redefined for today! It is time to run, and run well within your calls and destines to help people and release them to help as we all seek His face in intimacy. In this place of intimacy, we will all be like early warning devices for God in ways that lead us to intercession. We will be like warning devices for the Lord – with anointing to help lessen the severity of both spiritual and earthly storms, in many circumstances and situations. Now is the time to run our races and to run them well.

Joel 2:28-32 "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days. And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the LORD shall be saved..."

At the first of this year, God said to run for Him, and that it was time to go, teach, impart and release others to become "Early Warning Devices" for the Lord themselves as God is pouring out His Spirit on all flesh. If we stay in divine intimacy with God and allow Him to impart His wisdom and His understanding, then we can be led just as Elijah demonstrated (see James 5) by withholding rain and then releasing rain once again upon the earth. As he "was a man with a nature like ours," we can take faith by those demonstrations to help pray to lessen the severity of earthly storms, and yet glean through God's wisdom, the understanding of the parallel spiritual significance of such storms as they are coming and will continue to come.

These "Early Warning Devices" are all of you, the saints of God, moving into prophetic intercession with anointing to stop the raging seas, to dissipate the violent winds, to help lessen the seismic activity, and so much more. Also, it is important to yield at this time to the "still small voice of the Lord" and allow His voice to guide each of us so we may stay in His protected care, even in times of war, tribulations and extreme weather patterns that are only growing in severity. Do not be alarmed, stay in peace and remember back to 9/11: As you research, you will find miraculous stories of God's grace interworking in individual lives that day that kept many from their daily routines, whether work or play.

God has told me to continue to pray to lessen the extreme forces of the impending natural disasters and to continue in a heightened manner to pray to shield, protect and seal the saints of God in God's arms of love and in His protection through the Passover Blood of Christ.

The days of preparation are over, things have shifted and the time has come where this is now about true life and death issues and learning to listen to God, to be still and know that He is God, and then to know when to stay or when to go, which will come in peace with divine wisdom and in God's perfect timing. (I know God is speaking at those levels, His Word clearly says so in Joel 2 and Acts 2.)

Stay true to God, and know that His Word tells us that He does nothing unless He reveals it through His prophets. Friends, please understand that as I write this it is not to offend anyone but to enhance one's thinking about how to manage the words of calamity that are everywhere about destruction and not guidance. My job is not to just foretell tragedy, natural disasters, rumors of wars, etc., but to reveal these things with the intent of hope, to help each of you to pray to help lessen the degree of loss, and to encourage each of you to seek out what God would say to you individually, as God is pouring out His Spirit to not just a few but to all those that say "yes" to the call.

So I try, as I write of these things, to still bring a "message of hope" in the times we are in. We are all in need of peace with understanding of the times and seasons we are in, and God's wisdom to guide and the ability to know His instruction. I believe in the days ahead that God's direction will come quickly, and He will provoke us into action if we allow Him to. That can save our lives, or with a call to partner in prayer, can save the lives of many. The "prayers of the saints" can and have withheld tsunami waters back, lessened seismic activity, and have caused divine intervention to be given to those within a danger path – divine grace shifting them to another place of safety at the right time so they should live and not die.

So yes, I believe in the power of prayer and in the divine guidance of the Lord, and I believe today in the workings of the covenant of grace here on earth. I believe this nation is still in God's good graces in so many ways. I believe that God has said that we are entering into a time of extended favor of God, and that translates to us (His children), who have answered His call and said "yes" to the invitation of the Lord.

This invitation, as we accept it, will allow us to enter into what God has told me is the "The Beginning." What we need to know right now is that we have the opportunity of choosing to "partner" with God during this most unprecedented time of favor that He is extending to His saints that will allow us (the United States) to become a part of "history in the making."

Great Change Coming – Winds of Change

In this article, I speak directly about a time upon the earth where God extends His blessing and the miraculous, which brings "Great Change – the Winds of Change"; this includes unprecedented favor, healing, deliverance and anointing to overcome the hardships of the yesteryears, and the ability to enter into the goodness of God in the tomorrows that are to come and also in the presents/presence of today.

My intent is to bring hope that God is on the Throne and that the "tears and the cries of the saints" are and have been heard by God and that the time of the evil taskmasters in many ways is coming to an abrupt end (doors open that no one can shut, as God's exposure is being unveiled all over the earth). Here I share specific revelations and the dates I received them:

Revelation received April 23, 2011: The other night, as I was abruptly awoken and stirred to rise, I tried to get up, but when I did I began falling side to side and back and forth. If you would have seen me on camera you would have thought that I was in the middle of an earthquake falling back and forth from one wall to another. Believe me, I have been heavily praying that God would significantly lessen the seismic activity and also tame the tornadoes. God told me tornadoes in the natural are a supernatural sign, specifically this year, that would mark the beginning of the "Great Winds of Change." Those tornadoes would be a sign in the natural that would be a parallel in the spirit and would mark a definite, strategic signpost on the prophetic timetable.

Revelation received April 4, 2011: In those "Winds of Change," God's justice will be SWIFT, and it will come and is coming like a raging fire. I see a fire hail storm. I see large, very large, tornadoes that are both black and white and carry these GREAT WINDS OF CHANGE. Yes, there will be harm and there will be devastation, but this time period will also carry a message of hope to God's children that it is time for sudden, sovereign change.

During this time, God has and is sealing His saints in protection, bringing divine order, blessing them financially, while supplying divine safety nets for those that have gone astray and yet are lassoed by God through prayers of family members to protect, shield and bring the prodigal sons, daughters, wives and husbands home and to set the captives free. There are armies of angelic hosts all around the world, occupying around us to protect us, to shield us, as Psalm 91 states.

There is also a call and an announcement of the Lord upon the earth at this time, and that call says this: "Amnesty." In that amnesty, there is given to us God's signet ring, which gives us the authority to pray and remove and to invalidate the prior decrees that are not of God and are not of good report that have been placed upon individuals, churches, ministries, businesses, governments, geographic areas, etc. – and to now exchange those prior decrees with new decrees that release the saints who are sealed "for such a time as this."

The Time of Justice Has Come

Revelation received April 23, 2011: For it is now time for God's justice to fall upon the earth, and for His kids and His warrior Bride to be accompanied by the armies of the Lord, for they are being sent to fix all things that must be fixed and finish all things that must be finished. For the gavel of the Lord has been raised and brought down, and it is time for justice so that God's children will be released, healed up, resourced, prepared and sent. It is time for God to clean house and to weed out the bad and replace with what is good, right and pure.

The time has also come where God is intervening and opening the Books of Remembrance of His Church and His saints. He is divinely intervening so that the fulfillment can come for His Kingdom and for each of us, through fulfillment of dreams, visions and realization of purpose and destiny. You are in God's Book of Remembrance, and it is time for those "suddenlies" of the Lord to come to those that have been sacrificed in many ways as modern-day martyrs, to those who have been champions of faith, and to those that have championed God's love and His truth.

The Time of Exposure Has Come

Revelation received April 23, 2011: A positive thing that parallels the shattering truth of the violent wind that has raged throughout our country is that God said He was coming with "His Winds of Change" – and He is exposing the truth that has been hidden, and He is bringing exoneration and help to His kids. He has said to me that the time of the harsh taskmasters is over. Even with these current and violent army of twisters that are occurring today, God is also working parallel in the Spirit to loose the saints from the grasp of the enemy. He told me, "The sleeper has awakened," meaning His Church at large.

It is time for the Church to arise and take her rightful place. No longer will God tolerate the abuse of those that oppose His children, and no longer will the ruthless and the proud hurt those who cannot fight. Vengeance is the Lord's, and we must posture ourselves in a way to let God champion us. In doing so, we must find that safe place in intimacy with the Lord and humbly go to Him, and say, "Here I am, Lord. I submit to You all these things that have gone unresolved because of the extreme opposition that we have faced."

Yes, this nation is still very much so under the covenant of grace, yet the winds of change are here and there is no going back.

In prayer, God said to me the word "Enough." We must look at our lives and see where there are relationship issues and purposely ask the Lord what to do; we must ask Him to intervene, to help rebuild what is good, pure, true and holy. The rebuilding that is coming is after the shaking. The shaking must come so that the rebuilding can follow, and no man, woman or child is exempt. We have entered into a time in the prophetic age of the Church where, yes, there is still grace working within those who have accepted Christ, but the government of God has dropped the gavel and what was open has closed or is about to close for good.

As other prophetic voices have stated along with myself, and even the scientific community is beginning to warn, we are to expect more earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic activity, tornadoes, hurricanes and perhaps early flooding this year; more mine-collapsing, more bridge-collapsing, and perhaps further nuclear issues will result from the things that are coming, in order to shake things up so that truth can be known and exposed. These things are coming, and this is a wake-up call from Heaven; we need to pray for this nation and our governmental leaders and other world leaders as well, because the King of Glory is coming. It is time that we as individuals and those that are leaders, recognize the divinity and providence of the Lord and of our King of Kings.

Those who are the evil taskmasters and have abused God's sheep (His kids) and killed for sport and so much more, those are the "veils of deception" that are coming down; God is avenging His kids and the world is taking notice at all levels. We all are coming out of the "Age of Slumber" and into the beginning of the end. Now, I do not speculate on what that end is, as there are many chapters in God's book, so I will not read into that, but I will take note at the severity of the word and what in the natural we do know. We do know this: "The Church and the sleepers are awakening for such a time as this."

During this time, the shaking will break free what previously was not exposed, and no one right now can escape the divinity of God and His sovereignty. I believe that the Holy Spirit has said that those who are guilty of crimes, whether war crimes or corporate crimes, will be exposed. I see serial killers and those evil warmongers who oppress the weak and like to torture innocent victims exposed. I know God is coming, and He is avenging the innocent that have been hurt, harmed and violated.

The Gavel Has Been Slammed Down

Revelation received April 23, 2011: God's wrath has been loosed and we will begin to see more fully the unveiled truth that was once shielded but now known. I believe God said that we will see the exposure of "the evilness and true motives of individual hearts." There are those things that are right that the enemy has tried to bring down, but has not been successful against, that will come into a sudden, sovereign favor of God almost overnight. Those ministries and or businesses lost, as once so thought, will be resurrected and made right and whole once again through God's justice and His providence.

I pray often for a hedge of protection around God's kids and to seal them for such a time as this. I say prayers to free those who are imprisoned within bodies that do not work or minds that do not think right. I pray that MIAs would be found, released and divinely healed in their prison cells so that they come out of imprisonment and tell the stories of how the Lord came with His glory and brought peace and healing and helped keep them safe from further harm or neglect.

I pray that our enemies would be found, like Bin Laden (more on him below) and his allies, and that God would expose those who are not as they seem they are. The enemy has tried to close God's Churches and His parachurch ministries, and the enemy has tried to kill, steal and destroy covenant relationships within marriages, within leadership teams, within families, and within non-profits that set out to help the "greater good." He has loosed a great spirit of Civil War within this nation where brother is against brother and sister is against sister.

Those who have been the harsh taskmasters, the evil rulers and the heads of state worldwide, who have abused God's sheep and killed for sport, who have spilled innocent blood for play, who have lied purposely for personal gain, seduced and killed and so many other things so that they may have greater riches, control and power that bring with it oil, diamonds, and mineral rights – they are put on alert by God the Father, and the heavenly hosts are waiting and watching for the command of the Lord, for the gavel has come down and God has said, "Enough!" Those are the veils of deception that are coming down. God is avenging His kids, and the world would do well to take notice at all levels of those things transpiring in the natural through war, extreme weather patterns, celestial events, etc.

God said to me boldly and in a tone that shook me, "This is the end of the beginning." I hear these things to pray for and to watch out for, so as not to lose covenant relationships, nor be duped in investments, and then I pray specifically for these key places that God has put within my heart: individuals, corporations (business, investments and banking with true values stated and no things omitted), families (brothers and sisters in the Lord included), friends, loved ones, marriages, alliances. Praying for government is huge, and those who lie will be found out here in this country, and in England, Egypt, Costa Rica, Brazil, and in Spanish-speaking agencies and countries.

I also just heard the word "balderdash," which means senseless talking or writing, and nonsense. It reminds me of when God changed the languages because of the tower of Babel.

The Time Has Now Come

Revelation received April 23, 2011: I know this, that a death angel is being loosed, and this one in particular along with those that ride with him are not just about physical death, but death of fortunes, death of relationships, death of family, of those that abuse God's sheep and kill, rob, destroy, etc. There will be death and exposure to those that hate America and who are trying to make her fall.

Revelation received April 23, 2011: Bin Laden's number is up, and I hear exposure to those military types like him who hate America and want to destroy her. Also, that death angel does not show mercy, for it will ride hard and ride until it finds the things that those guilty love the most. That death angel will do away with those relationships or prize possessions as a way to bring fiery coals upon their heads until they repent and change their ways. If they choose "No," it will get uglier for them. Remember, it is God's place to judge; ours is to pray and occupy, to help God as He leads.

On a side note: In 2002, I was watching a hilarious movie with some Christian friends of mine and God interrupted me in a major way. At that time I was always carrying a pen and paper with me as God's revelation was flowing fluently to me; it was a time of revelation and a time of scribing. The revelation came strong, and so I began to write as I was strongly compelled by God and the Holy Spirit was relentless and would not rest until I wrote the vision down.

While in the room with my friends watching a movie, I was translated in the Spirit and I saw a lady dressed much like a Pakistani woman would look I believe, with layered clothing and a veil. She walked the top of a wall that was either a wall around a city or perhaps an area, but as I saw her look to me, I heard God say, "You will find Bin Laden in Pakistan, and he is hidden well. There are those in many governments that know where he is that are on his payroll and they are paid well," the emphasis on "many governments."

That began a birthing of a key component in my own prayer life and in others' as well. The new key component that God called for was this: to pray for exposure, for the truth to come, and to root out our enemies within this nation, abroad and those plants or spies within our government or those of our allies. I prayed for exposure and truth to remove the walls of deception and to bring the truth that will stop innocent bloodshed, remove the harsh taskmasters, and protect this nation against the Judases already here and that are rooted deep within some of our allies.

God also said He was releasing anointing upon the earth to bring suddenlies that would bring wholeness, good health, and prosperity to complete our destinies and purpose; restoration, redemption, and reconciliation of divine and covenant relationships; and new relationships at just the right time that He wants us to be ready for so as not to lose them. This would come accompanied with God's favor and His resources so that we can fulfill His divine call upon our lives, which brings with it protection, position, provision and His signet ring of authority.

I prayed that the United States would carry this anointing He was releasing and that the Judases would be exposed, their evil plans thwarted, hidden agendas found out and stopped, exposure of those that call themselves our allies but are not, and exposure to those that call us friend but are really our foes. This means even within our own government, military, and even in the corporate businesses of America and abroad, and more. God's voice was clear then and is today. No MORE!

God is not a harsh taskmaster, nor does He give His kids bad gifts but only the best – and for some reason that is BIG for His Church today. We can trust God, for He is a good God.

For those of you that have lost your way due to whatever reason, I pray for you that you would have grace to forgive those that may have wounded you in God's government and to restore you to your first love as God divinely guides you.

If there are those of you reading this that have walked away, the word I have for you is "Grace, and be forgiven," and now come unto the Father through the Son and enter back into the family of the Lord. For you I particularly pray for divine intervention, so you may be gently restored and put back into work for God today, in Jesus' name, amen.

God Teaches Us to Pray in These Troubling Times

God still loves America and I know things are happening here too, but we can pray to lessen the air strikes against us and those that fight with us, with Israel and God's people worldwide, and continue to ask God to seal us all in these times of trouble. Teach us to pray, Lord, so we may know what to do and where to go if for some reason something might hit where we live. We must prepare, but I still think we are okay where we are here, for the most part, in the Pacific Northwest.

For those of you who do not have great time to spend with God as you would like, please know this: God gauges action by the intent of the heart. "Do not worry," I hear; God so loves you more then you know. Keep harvesting, as we are all called to bring in the Great Harvest; people are ready to learn, to be blessed and to be comforted in the new found hope of Christ, where their families can find refuge in times of despair and then sojourn with us (the Body of Christ) as we all navigate together in these troubling times.

I truly believe that people, whether backslidden or unsaved, are getting a wake-up call and are beginning to understand the need for God and that there is a gaping hole of despair within them. As things in the world become darker and that of greater light becomes more prevalent, then there is no more room for gray. There is a separation occurring in the natural and in the spiritual at this time. God's light and the Light of Heaven, as it moves into the earth realms, will encroach upon the darkness and cause it to be as unto nothing.

The supremacy of God and His glory cloud has and is descending upon the earth in many places and is multiplying. It is so much more prevalent and beginning to shine more brightly at this time, as it is TIME. When this occurs in the natural, we know that light encroaches upon the darkness and the darkness must retreat, thereby making way for the sunrise (Sonrise).

In writing all this, I am teaching what I can to help the Church prepare and to know what the signs are to look for and how to train yourself to hear God's voice and recognize the times and seasons, including that of what the atmosphere feels like before the extreme weather patterns occur even across the world. You all have been trained and have stored up prophetic promises, and I believe it is time to pull them down off the shelf and get busy. My goal is to help motivate, edify, and encourage you and to provide HOPE amidst today's challenges, that you would first and foremost keep your eyes on the Cross of Christ and remember His commandments to love God and love one another, as the Scripture says that the law of the prophets is based upon that. Love rules.

Be Watchful

Yes, I am watching the Pacific Northwest and other places of the world, as God has called me to be a watchperson on the wall among other things, much like you. Yes, I am sounding the alarm today to each of you and it is this: Will you run for God this year and in the year that follows? Are you ready to discover what it is like to be an ordinary person living an extraordinary life? Are you ready to run in the gifts and the talents that God has given to you? And finally, are you ready to fight the good fight of love – with God's royal, lavish love for His Bride, meaning you and me, and everyone else who is God's child?

Much love and rich blessings for each of you and all whom you represent. Let today be a turnaround day for each of you so that your own lives and those of your families now turn and overcome the obstacles in the miraculous favor of God. "For it is time" for the saints to not only prevail but to enter into the call of unity and to move into extreme discipleship of the Lord where we will be shielded, protected, cared for, resourced, loved, favored, honored and respected. For those behind closed doors that were once shut to the Gospel of God – this is for you, my friends, and for your family, friends and loved ones.

So let us run with God, and let all of us let go AND LET GOD! Bless you, and may God bring you all you need and so much more.

An Urgent Call for Massive Intercession

Dear Believers in Christ,

A few days ago as I watched a news business channel, I received the following word from the Lord. As you can tell, it's a serious warning. I know the nation is in a delicate condition now, but I believe that I need to send this word out. I ran it by Chuck Pierce and he said that it fits with what he has been hearing, only more specific on the economic side.

This is a wake up and it's so strong.

A Serious Warning and a Call for Urgent Prayer

A warning received from the Lord on July 17, 2010 in Dallas, Texas:

A few days ago as I watched the financial news, the Lord clearly spoke these words to me, "The nation is teetering!" I then had a vision of the economy of the United States, on what looked like a "scale of justice." He then went on to show me that we must fast, pray and cry out to the Lord for mercy and solutions that will balance righteousness and justice.

In praying to the Lord for wisdom about this word, I realized what must be done—it is time for the Church in America to stand up and take her place once again in the nation. I mulled over the fact that we have already lost so many of our liberties and this is what I heard, "If the Church doesn't fast and pray for a faster acceleration of revival and awakening, the iniquitous sin structures in the nation will tip the scale that is teetering and there will be another great depression."

Of course, this word shook me to the core of my being. Many of you may be aware that the Holy Spirit spoke to me almost a year before the September 2008 economic melt down, that there would be "no more business as usual."

The balance of the economy is fragile and depending on the way we fast, pray, and how we cast our votes in the next election will depend on which way the scale tips. We must pray and do. We must pray and act. We must awaken the Church to the state of the nation without fear of pleasing man or fear for our reputation.

God is watching to see which way the die will be cast. If we shift the nation to Biblical values in the arenas of righteousness and justice, the economy will follow. If we continue in our stance of support for Israel, the Stock Market will stabilize and prosper, and that which is fragile will become strong. Supernatural solutions will be sent from Heaven that our natural minds could never reason, nor grasp and they will heal the land.

If we do not heed in this hour there will be a tumbling of our economy and dark days will be ahead to such a degree that our nation will possibly never fully recover from and have the greatness as a nation that God has favored us with for generations.

God have mercy. God send an awakening. God send salvation.

Preparing for the Presidential Transition

by Reuven and Mary Lou Doron
(En Español)


Can You Feel The Shift?
Many intercessors are aware of an irritation of soul and a sense of vulnerability in the air these days. It seems that the closer America gets to the upcoming presidential transition, January 20, the more frustration and exasperation seem to surface in the land. Most folks, however, fail to discern these as widespread spiritual dynamics that we need to "work with," but rather get entangled by their trappings, engage with them soulishly and suffer loss.

The frustration and vulnerability you may feel are directly related to the imminent transition of power in the White House. As imperfect as a president may be, the president's office nevertheless possesses and exercises God-ordained authority and power that provide a parental covering and a protection for the nation. Flawed as President Bush may have been, his presidency provided that protection and covering for America. This covering and ensuing confidence are fading away daily as we draw closer to January 20, generating a growing sense of vulnerability, concern and irritability among those spiritually sensitive.

President-elect Barack Obama is still an unknown. While his policies are clearly displayed and easily understood, his track record, motives, core convictions, vision and "ability to lead under fire" are subject to debate and uncertainty. These dynamics may change, transform or be amplified, depending upon the new president's performance in light of the immense challenges he is facing both domestically and abroad. As intercessors we are well aware that America is still a nation at war, targeted by global terror organizations from without and confronted by a very troubled economy within.

The intercessors must therefore watch and pray, abide in the love of God and present ourselves as vessels to be filled and moved by His Holy Spirit so that we can be part of the solution, and not the problem, in the coming days. Remember Mordecai of old (in the book of Esther) who served God's purposes, distinguished himself, helped save his people and gained influence and trust as he displayed honor and loyalty to a pagan king.

Barack Obama is not a pagan king. Yet, the new president, as well as America as a nation, needs the Church to be clothed in readiness, filled with grace and truth, empowered with the Spirit of God, and able to serve in a full capacity according to the divine plan. To put it prophetically, according to Judges Chapter 4, Barack (Barak in Hebrew) needs a Deborah.

Barak Can't Win Without Deborah
"Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, was judging Israel… Then she sent and called for Barak the son of Abinoam… and said to him, ‘Has not the LORD God of Israel commanded, ‘Go and deploy troops at Mount Tabor… and against you I will deploy Sisera, the commander of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude… and I will deliver him into your hand?' And Barak said to her, ‘If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go!' So she said, ‘I will surely go with you; nevertheless there will be no glory for you in the journey you are taking, for the LORD will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.'

"So Sisera gathered together all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron… Then Deborah said to Barak, ‘Up! For this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Has not the LORD gone out before you?' So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him. And the LORD routed Sisera and all his chariots and all his army with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera alighted from his chariot and fled away on foot. But Barak pursued… and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; not a man was left"
(Judges 4).

The Spirit of God is indicating that there is hope and that the saints will do well to focus on His calling and purpose, rather than being caught up with, and engrossed by, the turmoil and anxiety that fill the world. As in the biblical narrative, President-elect BARACK, whether you have voted for him or not, will need a godly DEBORAH if he is to succeed in the difficult battles facing America in the days ahead. Is anything too difficult for God? Has not the Lord touched, used and even transformed hearts of kings and rulers throughout history? From Pharaoh to Abimelech to Nebuchadnezzar, God's intervention in their lives changed history and served His purpose.

The Prophetic Scene
For those who can receive it, Barak in the biblical narrative is prophetically reflective of Barack Obama. (In fact, by a few accounts, the name Barack is the Arabic equivalent of the Hebrew word translated "Barak.) But who is Deborah? She is the Warrior Bride: God's agent of justice and truth on earth who not only dispenses righteous judgments and justice, but is also a prophetic messenger revealing the nature and purpose of God to the nation. Deborah is the Church of the Lord Jesus the Messiah; serving in times of turmoil, instructing men in the will of God, standing in the gap at personal risk and danger, and interceding until victory is achieved.

Deborah was a prophetess, a Judge of Israel and the wife of Lapidoth. What is it about her character that can speak to our own hearts today as we seek to serve God during one of America's most important and dangerous presidential transitions?

Deborah was married to Lapidoth. Her husband's name in Hebrew means "a torch," or "a man of flames." The prophetic implication is that of the glorified Son of God in John's apocalyptic vision, saying, "… in the midst of the seven lampstands One like the Son of Man, clothed with a garment down to the feet and girded about the chest with a golden band. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and His eyes like a flame of fire; His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and His voice as the sound of many waters;" (Rev. 1:13-15). Deborah stands for the Bride of Christ Himself, the God-man who stands amidst the flames, and she serves as His representative in the world.

Barak - God's Lightening
Barak, in the Hebrew, means "lightening." Though often looked down upon in Christian circles as a weak leader who couldn't even face battle without the "real authority" in the land, he is actually recorded in Hebrews Chapter 11 as one of the heroes of our faith who "through faith subdued kingdoms, worked righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens" (Heb. 11:32-34).

According to the word of God, Barak's request to have Deborah join him for the battle was born of a living faith and genuine humility, recognizing that this was the only way to accomplish God's will. He, until today, is recorded as a man of faith in his dependency upon Deborah and her God.

Remember
Can the Church in America be such a righteous, strong, prophetically uncompromising Deborah for Barack Obama in the coming days? Could she summon him to battle and call him to rise up as did Deborah of old? Will we be able and willing to serve selflessly and even sacrificially in the day of battle? How can we cloth ourselves with Deborah's garments and arm ourselves with her heart? By asking God, submitting to His word, and living in His Spirit each and every day.

"Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, for kings and all who are in authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus, who gave Himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time" (1 Tim. 2:1-6). Remember who we are, what we are called to do, and who we are betrothed to; the man of flames who stands in the midst of the lampstands, the true mediator between God and men, Jesus the Messiah the Lord!

Of Planes And Presidents
The Spirit indicates that both President Bush and President-elect Barack Obama's first term in office have been marked with airplane related dramas. In Bush's case, America was violently thrust into a world of terror, devastation and war on 9/11/2001; a hostile and violent period during which time President Bush led the country safely for nearly eight years. In Barack Obama's case, his first term in office has been preceded by another air-related catastrophe as U.S. Airways flight 1549 made an emergency landing last Thursday in the Hudson River.

This air accident, however, has been hailed as miraculous by many in the media, crediting training, skill, character and providence with the saving of the lives of all on board! This was a sign as to how to pass through calamity. Watch and pray, America. God may yet surprise us with His goodness and loving-kindness even during days of peril and distress.

A Vision of the Northwest

An angel of the Lord appeared to me in a vision approximately two weeks ago. We were standing on a large mountain and he held a bright, gleaming fiery sword unlike any sword I had ever seen before. The blade was constructed of bright and shiny silver of the purest form with fiery flames surrounding it. Written on the blade of the sword were words and phrases like signs and wonders to follow, “new season,” “fresh anointing,” “power,” “healing,” “shift in the spirit,” “salvation” and “revival in the land.” When he wielded the sword the fire intensified and lightening emerged as it passed and cut through the air.

I shuddered from deep within, knowing the magnitude of force this sword yielded.

REAL CRIES OF INTERCESSORS ALLEGORICALLY “FROM THE DEPTHS BELOW”

As I watched, the angel positioned the sword above his head and thrust it into the ground where we stood. A slight crack appeared. Through the crack from the depths below I could hear the cries and petitions, the wails of intercessions and mighty shouts from many mighty warring Saints of God. I could see a red vapor emerging from this ever so small crack. It puzzled me.

THE ANGEL SAID TO ME, “IT IS TIME!”

I looked to the Angel of the Lord and he nodded to me and he said “It is time.” At that moment the sword produced fire and light so abundant I almost had to turn away from fear of it blinding me.

Within moments the ground below me began to rumble and all around me the ground began to shake, however I remained unaffected and my feet remained unmoved. This is when I realized I was now resting in the Fear of the Lord.

A SHIFT HAD OCCURRED IN THE SPIRIT FOR THE CHURCH --AND FOR THE PROPHETIC MINISTRY AGAIN

The Angel of the Lord then told me that a shift had occurred in the spirit and that the Church was entering into a new season of fresh anointing for wisdom and truth. He said that the Lord was once again putting His hand of blessing back on the prophetic ministry within His Church. I could see that He was calling forth many of His prophets who had been hidden away for a time of rest and healing. Others were just being launched into the prophetic, while still others were coming out of a season of instruction and discipline.

A sense of gratitude, love and warmth filled my inner being as I knew that the Great Ancient of Days was about to pour out more of His heart, His strategies, His secrets and His Amazing Power.

“THE CRACK BEGAN TO GROW AT AN ALARMING RATE”

Suddenly the crack began to grow at an alarming rate. It increased in width and no longer could I see where it began or where it ended. As I continued to watch this vision unfold, first light and then fire began to spill out from the depths below. This was the place of intercession. This was the place where the intercessors travailed, where they burrowed tunnels deep below the ground, where men’s and women’s hearts and foundations were changed.

MANY SEASONS HAD COME AND GONE

I watched as the Angel of the Lord took me below the ground to where the intercessors and mighty saints of God worked at a rapid pace. The intercessors by divine revelation worked hard and ferociously with determination on their faces. Many seasons had come and gone.

Seasons of pain, sorrow and death, seasons of joy and expectation, seasons of repentance and deliverance, seasons of teaching, training and instruction, and seasons of fire and revelation. Some of the intercessors had grown tired and entered into a season of rest, some had been wounded and were in recovery, some had laid their crowns of intercession down and were about to be restored, others had just entered into a season of intercession and still others dug with the stamina and persistence of marathon runners.

I could see that the intercessors had successfully dug tunnels according to the roadmap that the Holy Spirit had imparted to them. These tunnels burrowed deep below the foundations of men and women and lead straight to the throne room of God. These tunnels were prepared with delicate care and precisely engineered to carry forth The Fire of Revival, Waters of Cleansing and Healing, and much Oil for the Anointing throughout the land. At that moment I could hear coming straight from the Throne of God, “Well done my good and faithful servants. You have prepared the way and you have made Me proud.”

THE ANGEL’S SWORD POSITIONED TOWARD NORTHWEST CITIES

The Angel of the Lord then guided me to the top of the mountain once again. He stretched his hands outward and said look. At I peered I could see swords positioned in Seattle, Washington, Albany and Portland, Oregon, and Pasco, Washington (in fact all of the Tri-Cities area of Washington)

PORTLAND, AN “EPICENTER”

He began to pour out revelation, new fresh oil and prophecy into a cup he had handed me at some point during our journey. He said that revival was coming to these areas with Portland being the most impacted, this is where the epicenter of revival would be. He told me that each sword would be pushed into the ground at different times causing a stirring and shaking in the spirit. He then led me to the edge of the cliff at the top of the mountain and said “now pour out which is in your cup and watch.”

As I poured out the cup, a veil was removed and I observed many small flaming fires of revival throughout the area, the area of the Pacific Northwest. Jesus then appeared to the right of me and grabbed my hand. I turned and looked at Him. His faced was stained with tears of sweat and blood. He had joined in the in the place of intercession and petition before the Throne of His Father with the intercessors and the warring saints. As I gazed, He smiled a warm and genuine smile. There was so much love in His eyes. . . Love for His Bride.

“AGAIN I HEARD THE WORDS, ‘IT IS TIME!’“

He stretched His hand outward and pointed to the Pacific Northwest and again I heard the words, “It is time.” The small flaming fires of revival began to blaze in unity and one accord. The church united and I could see the Favor of the Lord released over the Pacific Northwest.

Signs and wonders increased, people rededicated their lives to Christ, emotions were healed and physical bodies were touched and healed.

Then a cloud of glory dropped from Heaven and covered the area. Suddenly, a vast harvest of the Lost appeared before me. Their hearts were ready and they eagerly came forward to receive the Kingdom of God. I then saw that the Cross of Christ had been branded on the land of the Pacific Northwest. The land was marked for salvation and revival.

As the vision faded, I heard again the three simple words, “It is Time.”

The Tuning Fork

This came my way from Sandy Coultas, one of the prophetic voices at RevivalTown Ministries.

Dear Friends,

I just received this email from a young man in NY who is a friend of ours. He is a prophetic intercessor and dynamic man of God. He is directing this word to the houses of prayer specifically, but I thought that it has an even broader application for us in the Puget Sound as we prepare for the 3 day worship event coming up with Alisha and Jason Upton. I feel it also has direct application to the SOUND events we are planning at the colleges this spring. There is such an incredible message coming from the Lord the last couple of years. It has to do with sound and very amazing scientific research and understanding that is being coupled with revelation and prophetic insight to bring tangible regional atmospheric breakthroughs. That's what I'm believing for this spring as Olympia and the greater Puget Sound area lift our hearts to Him in abandoned worship, spirit directed intercession, and strategic prophetic assignments and evangelism. The last few months have been difficult for many, but I believe it is time to shake off the residue of winter and press forward anew for what He is about to do!

He is Faithful!
Sandy Coultas


Those who sow in tears will reap with joyful shouting - Psalm 126

tuning forks...I kid you not!


ok, ok so sometimes i am not quick to obey, although i should be but God's grace enables me to bring this word to you now

in December of this past year, the Lord gave me a word about tuning forks but i did not blog it like I was supposed to...imagine my surprise when in February I’m watching the "starting the year off right" conference on GODtv and this woman Sandy Newman releases a word about sound, vibration, and yes, you guessed it - tuning forks!!!

so here's the word the Lord gave me in December:

the Lord wants to release the spirit and the anointing of tuning forks...to receive and resonate with the vibrations of sound declaring His truth, His healing, His love, His freedom, His grace

houses of prayer are tuning forks...tuning forks both send and receive the vibrations and sound...can only receive the sounds and vibrations of a specific frequency (depending on its size) that is the same as that frequency

so for example, if you take a tuning fork of a specific note (based on frequency) and you place it near one that is already ringing, if the notes are the same frequency the smaller tuning fork will begin to vibrate as well, in "sympathy" with the larger one

It's all about receptivity and proximity

The Lord releases His sound from heaven and if we are "tuned" to the same frequency and close enough to pick up the vibrations from His sound, we will resonate with that sound and vibrate as well! The Lord is saying that the houses of prayer are those tuning forks!

look at the definition of a tuning fork: (parentheses added to share revelation) A tuning fork is an acoustic resonator in the form of a two-pronged fork (two pronged as in worship and intercession!!!) with the tines formed from a U-shaped bar (open to receive) of elastic metal, usually steel (elastic meaning flexible and able to move when the Lord is moving, vibrating in unison with the vibrations of the sound of heaven; metal, usually steel speaks of firmness and strength, lasting and enduring)

let's look at the word resonate since tuning forks resonate with vibrations of specific pitch:

1 in electronics it means to reinforce (support, strengthen) oscillations because the natural (built that way, one might say "wired" that way or in one's "DNA"!) frequency of the device is the same (unity, from intimacy and communion with the Lord) as the frequency of the source.

2 to amplify vocal sound by the sympathetic (here it means "same" but interesting that the word choice is sympathetic, as in what moves the Lord's heart moves our hearts) vibration of air in certain cavities and bony structures (open spaces; Holy Spirit must be given free reign, the structure must be open to allow Him to move and flow).

other meanings that don’t necessarily have scientific application but very much have spiritual application in this word that houses of prayer are tuning forks: - to evoke a feeling of shared emotion or belief

to correspond closely or harmoniously

to be received or understood

The Lord is saying that houses of prayer correspond closely or harmoniously with His heart and His Spirit...the two pronged structure of worship and intercession enable houses of prayer to receive and resonate with the sound He is releasing from heaven...what happens when the tuning fork "picks up" and begins to resonate with the sound vibrations from heaven? it resonates at a constant pitch, disturbing the surrounding air molecules, causing them to shift and shake (vibrate), carrying the sound signal from one place to another!!!

interestingly enough there are many uses for tuning forks:

help tune musical instruments (make sure they are in the right frequency to receive the sound)

assess hearing (do you have ears to hear the sound of heaven?)

used as an alternative healing therapy...biosonic states that you can use tuning forks and sound to experience deep levels of healing by bringing your body back to its fundamental pulse and by connecting you to your authentic life rhythm. (how about coming back to the fundamental pulse of the heart of worship, a heart that beats with and for the Lord? connecting to authentic life rhythm...how about connecting to the Author of life??)

in electromechanical watches to help keep time accurately (do you know the time in which you are living?)

calibrate radar guns to ensure accurate measurement (can you recognize the signs of the times?)

Lord, release Your anointing on Your body...let Your house truly be a house of prayer for all nations as You say in Your Word...let us be molded and shaped in such a way that we are receptive to You and in tune with what You are saying and doing in this hour...release the anointing of the tuning forks in Jesus name, amen!


From Jason Vogt

Indonesia And The Pacific Northwest

"Volcanoes, Earthquakes, Indonesia and the Pacific Northwest"

In My Mind I Heard the Following Statement, "The Mountain Has Just Blown!"

Last Friday on May 26, 2006, I was abruptly awakened to an upright position at 3:00am. In my mind I heard the following statement: "The Mountain has just blown!" Then in the spirit, I felt tremors from below the earth's surface that gained in momentum, until it was as if--my entire home was being violently shaken by a giant earthquake of magnitude proportions.

Although this was a spiritual experience, I half expected (as I turned on my television set) to find a news report of what I just experienced. Although there wasn't any indication of reports on recent seismic (earthquakes), or volcanic activity of this proportion, I knew the Lord was personally calling me to prayer.

I live in the Pacific Northwest, in close proximity to Mount Saint Helens, which is once again building; so I started in prayer for the region in which I live. And as I prayed and interceded, the Lord led me throughout the entire Pacific Ring of Fire, particularly, into Indonesia. The more I interceded and prayed, the more I had a sense of foreboding for future earthquakes and volcanic activity in the very new future.

During the course of last Friday, I continued in this place of intense intercession, and the Lord allowed me to look down upon the Pacific Ring of Fire from a Heavenly perspective. Along the fault lines, I saw little red sensors that would light up in various intensity, revealing points of seismic activity and the gravity of the impact.

In my spirit, I heard the Lord say, that over the course of the next few weeks (a very strategic time of prayer) and months, there would be increased earthquakes and volcanic activity.

That evening, when I heard of the earthquake on Indonesia's Java Island, I knew in my spirit that it was a critical time to pray to lessen, delay, or stop any future cataclysmic earthquakes and volcanic disasters. On a side note, I have learned as a prophetic person, often the Lord will give me a dream, experience, vision, etc., that is layered--where one thing will happen in the natural (such as the earthquake in Indonesia), which confirms the entirety of the word given by the Lord. This leads me to call for prayer for other parts of the world, where volcanic explosion and further catastrophic earthquakes have not yet occurred.

Because of the way the revelation occurred, and was partially confirmed not even twenty-four hours later, I believe there is a window of opportunity to pray--to lessen volcanic and seismic activity along the Pacific Ring of Fire. Particularly in reference to the "Mountain Blowing," as this was the most significant part of the experience. In fact, even as I write this, I see symbolically through the prayers of the intercessors, the tectonic plates being shifted back into perfect alignment, and a lessening of the pressure that is mounting below the earth's surface.

Remember--Prayer changes things, and we are all intercessors in the Lord's eyes. Each of our prayers helps collectively fulfill, and partner with, the Lord's perfect will.

Please Join Me in Prayer for the Following, But Not Limited To:
Pray for the Island of Java and Indonesia:

Pray the Lord would supernaturally intervene and cause a shift in the natural, to stop any impending future seismic and volcanic activity.
Pray relief aid would get there in a timely manner, and that the areas of devastation would be quickly rebuilt with better living conditions.
Pray for miraculous healing and medical aid to meet all the needs of the victims and their families.
Pray the Lord's glory would shine through this tragic event-- His Kingdom would advance and souls would be saved.

Pray to Lessen, Hinder, Delay and/or Stop Impending Future Seismic and Volcanic Activity:

Pray the Lord would supernaturally intervene, and cause a shift in the natural to stop, hinder, or delay any impending future seismic and volcanic activity along the Pacific Ring of Fire.

Pray the Lord would seal away His Saints through the Blood of the Lamb, and protect them from harm and judgment.

Again, pray that the Lord's Glory would shine on the earth in the midst of chaos, confusion and tragedy, causing souls to be won for the Kingdom of God.

For Prayer Focus:

I do want to note that many prophetic people, myself included, are getting warnings at this time of natural disasters, terrorism, deadly plagues and viruses, etc. We are most certainly at a heightened time of war, rumors of war, death, famine, destruction, etc., and it is important to be in prayer and supplication at this time. We also must be prepared in the natural (getting your own homes in order), and be sensitive to the needs of others.

That being said, it is a time to be aware that the Harvest field is ripe and ready for Harvest. We as His Bride, His Church, have the privilege to be a light that shines brightly in the darkest of times and places. So I encourage you to maintain a place of peace, and continue to pray and intercede.

Let's be givers of hope, ministers of love, and let's extend help in tangible ways, as we are ever-advancing the Kingdom of God.

Matthew 5:16, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven." NKJV

Philippians 4:4-8, "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things. (NKJV)
