The Rock Has Rolled

John is a resident of Montana, close to, but not technically part of, the Pacific Northwest. That's not why this word is included in the NWP Record. 


Several prophetic people have drawn my attention to this word, and declared what my own spirit was saying: This is a word for the Northwest. --Editor

On 7-7-11 I said, "The rock has rolled."
The Rock
The rock before the storm
Recently a freak thunderstorm crossed the north side of our ranch before bringing much destruction to a farming community east of us on the Yellowstone River.
The photo above is a partial look at a landmark on our ranch, a massive rock with horizontal lines (perhaps caused by ocean tides when eastern Montana was on the bottom of an ocean?) and stretching over 100 feet and rising up to 15 feet above the ground.
Little about this rock has changed through the years.
The Rock
The rock after the storm
After the storm Wally Badgett and I trailed some yearlings past Krumm Spring and I could not believe my eyes. The angry storm had dislodged a horizontal portion of the rock wall and left it standing vertically without rolling it down the hill. This rock is standing on a narrow ledge with its lines now pointing up.
While I was watching the live streaming of the Open Door Conference at Chuck Pierce's church on a recent Friday night, the Lord gave me understanding about this rock.
The total rock represents the Church. For a long time all of the Church's "lines" have been horizontal. The Church has been concerned about fellowship, church growth, activities, social programs, etc...
But a storm broke off a "remnant" without destroying it. Instead, the remnant is now pointing up to the heavens. See how this rock even resembles a hand.
This is a sign for our times. A remnant within the Church will break away from horizontal works and point upward to Christ.
Blessings,

Postscript on the Rock:
  • Krumm Spring is a very important water source on the ranch. During our many drought years it was the only spring not to go dry, though it slowed to just a trickle before this year.
  • Krumm Spring is two miles south and on the same divide as the Rock Circles where we have done so much land cleansing and warfare. At Krumm Spring is the greenest cedar tree you will ever see (photo available upon request) and above it is a lookout point with teepee rings.
  • Krumm Spring was actually named for two single women who homesteaded there about 100 years ago.
  • The rock that was dislodged probably weighs one ton and sets on a ledge that is only a couple feet wide. The storm was coming from the northwest to the southeast and the rock should have been thrown off that ledge to topple downhill.

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,

A shift in the force

I’m sensing a blending of two streams of thought within the body of Christ. Years ago when I first starting leading worship the Lord led us into a long season of spiritual warfare and the songs reflected that. There was a strong focus on deliverance ministry as well as healing…this was the time that Cleaning Stream was getting started. This was an awesome time of experiencing God’s power and it help me understand the proper concept of Luke 10:19.

Over the last few years the Lord has had me focus my sermons on His love, His goodness, that we are His beloved, and the ministry focus has been on restoration and healing, especially those that have been hurt by the “church” with an interesting focus on healing needed by women.

This has branched off into obtaining an understanding of new (to me) things and jumping into the wine of His presence, enjoying the wackiness of being intoxicated with His love, embracing my relationship with God as Abba Father and that He has nothing but good for me because He is LOVE! Some of the ministries that are clearly helping me understand that are John Crowder, Ben Dunn, Todd White, and others. To be honest …this is really, really good stuff and desperately needed because the church has to realign it focus back on God and not just a short meeting on Sunday mornings.

In the first season our focus was one facet of God…to the point that many in this type of ministry saw demons behind every rock and every problem that came their way.

In the current season we are still focusing on one facet of God, albeit a much better a needed focus because as I’m learning you can’t conduct spiritual warfare without knowing who you are in Christ and you can’t know that without knowing and embracing His love and goodness.

But now I feel that the Lord is bringing a balance to the force.

Paul clearly tells us that we are in a battle, that we wrestle (fight) not with flesh but with the spiritual enemy, that we are to use spiritual weapons of warfare…in other words we are at war regardless of how good God is. Now don’t jump to conclusion just yet.

We need the time in His presence, the time of refreshing, and the times of wackiness not only for ourselves and our relationship with Abba, but to leak on others as well. Bill Johnston describes it very well…you just go into some place and the presence of God just leaks out you on people nearby and they get healed and touched by God.

We also need to know that the spiritual enemy doesn’t care or respect the goodness and love of God…they see this as a weakness. Remember they were in the very presence of God for a long time until they rebelled and were kicked out of Heaven.

So what do I see happening? An understanding of who we are in Christ, the full awareness of the power of His love, ministering anytime anywhere with the goodness and love of God, but with a clear understanding that we often have to take it to the enemy and use the authority His has given us as sons and daughters of the Most High to set the captives free! So love the person – deal with the enemy.

The Potential Power of the Pacific Northwest

Recently, God dropped the Pacific Northwest (including Alaska) into my spirit. I began contemplating the numerous volcanoes that dot the mountain ranges there. Then it clicked. It was as if the Holy Spirit was showing me just a small glimpse into the dynamics of the Church in that region.

Mount Hood is Oregon's Volcano Most Likely to EruptIt would be easy to parallel the power held within a volcano as that meant for destruction, but I believe this is more in correlation with the potential of the power of God in individual churches, communities, and cities.

So when I mention volcanoes, I believe you could replace that word with any appropriate city, church, or even individual.

The Ring of Fire

The Pacific Northwest is part of a geological circle known as the Ring of Fire, where many active volcanoes are located. I believe this name to be prophetic nature for the region. The fire of the Holy Spirit is just awaiting to be loosed, much like Jeremiah prophesied that the Word of the Lord was like fire shut up in his bones (Jeremiah 20:9).

At one time, there was no doubt that these mountains were alive, releasing molten rock and changing the landscape around them. But now, years after their initial “eruptions,” these mountains lie dormant, or asleep, iced over and covered in snow; their mouths are now shut and closed off.

Rumbles of Revival

Even though these volcanoes may look asleep, they are very much alive on the inside. Once the pressure reaches a certain level, the mountain will then explode to action, shaking and quaking everything around it.

There have been major eruptions, or revivals if you will, in these mountains. Consider Mt. St. Helens and most recently Mt. Redoubt (whose name suggests another prophetic message all in itself). Let us not “doubt again” the power of the Holy Spirit and His capabilities in this region.

What Does This Mean?

Churches and individuals in the Pacific Northwest have great potential to move in the power of God in these days. It is time now to pray for visitation, just as God did with Mt. Sinai, whose mountain probably looked very much like a volcano. The clouds of glory and the flames of the Holy Spirit can manifest once again with signs and wonders following those who believe. There is such a hunger for the things of God, and this region is ripe for the harvest!

As everything that can be shaken will be shaken, it is a great opportunity for the Church in the Northwest to manifest in power and display the glory of the Lord in a new and powerful way.

June 8-12 is a Strategic Time

Last December God spoke to me that 2011 will be strategic, and we will begin moving into more clarity about our destinies as God is shifting our assignments. New life will come in June and by September 2011 things we have longed for will begin to take shape.

We are heading into a strategic time as God is sending out invitations to go deeper and experience more of Him. This will require that we streamline our lives and be flexible. What we do this year will set the pace for the next several years.

The enemy has been attacking us in the area of "spiritual identity theft." Many have gotten off-track from their specific uniqueness' as individuals, ministries, churches, and businesses. We will need to go beyond the things that we are good at doing and focus on what we do the best. We are being released from our old assignments from God and we need to take steps towards our new assignments.

June 8-12 is a Strategic Time

This year Passover to Pentecost takes place from April 25-June 8. It is an amazing time of Heavenly interaction and activity. The Jewish Feast of Pentecost ends June 8 and the Christian celebration is June 12. God spoke to me about significant "positive" events that will take place during this time. Watch for new things to begin happening June 8-12.

What will happen during the dates June 8-12 is similar to Isaiah 6:8-10:

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!" He said, "Go and tell this people: "‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.' Make the heart of this people calloused; make their ears dull and close their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts, and turn and be healed."

New Assignments Now Available

This is where Isaiah encountered God and received his new assignment. It was also a time in which some people thought they were hearing God but they were not hearing clearly or understanding Him. God is opening the spiritual ears and eyes of those who are looking to Him for their destiny.

God is asking many people to go on assignments that He would not normally have to ask them to accept. There has been an excessive amount of people who have fallen into complacency and therefore their callings and destinies are available to people who will say yes. New assignments along with the anointing and financial provision needed for those assignments are now available to people who will say yes to God.

ATM Cards from Heaven

I saw "spiritual ATM cards" being issued to people for "Angelic Teller Machines". God is assigning angels that will make finances and favor available from June 8 through September 30 (Pentecost – Rosh Hashanah). This is a specific time that people are going to reap what they have previously sown. In other words, we are in a time right now that we are receiving from God because of things that we have done and given to over the past nine years (2001-2011).

The amount of grace and blessing being received right now will not seem to make sense to some because it is coming as back-payment for previous losses.

Plan Now for the Future Assignments

Don't assume the amount of blessing you are receiving from June to September will continue at the same high velocity. So don't just think you can camp in the flow of blessing, you will still need to be wise and position yourself to get the new promotions coming after September. Begin planning now by watching for new opportunities.

New Grace Over Hollywood

I also heard a prophetic word that God has extended seven years of new grace and mercy over Hollywood and the entertainment industry as new media projects will arise. We will begin to see a rise of positive movies and music but simultaneously the enemy will try to combat this with an increase in demonic and witchcraft themes that will try to stop what God is doing.

Floodgates Opening

I keep having dreams that the floodgates of water have been opened and that the level of the supernatural is rising. I keep seeing reservoirs that are almost full and beginning to spill over. We are seeing news of areas in the U.S. where floodgates are being opened because of the large amount of rain and snow-melt. This is symbolic of the new levels of blessing, strategies and assignments that are being released from Heaven and the paradigm for new types of ministries, businesses and media projects that are beginning to unfold.

It is time to be willing to take risks and move forward with more confidence in the things that God is directing you to do. "Here I am Lord, send me!"
